This Amendment No. 2 amends the statement on Schedule 13D filed on May 5, 2008, as amended on December 16, 2008, by Harvey Operating and Production Company, a Colorado corporation (“HOPCO”) and Hugh E.

Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby supplemented as follows:

 

On June 8, 2009, HOPCO entered into a Rule 10b5-1 sales plan with a broker to sell shares of the Issuer’s common stock.  The maximum number of shares that may be sold under the Plan amounts to less than 5% of the shares of the Issuer’s common stock beneficially owned by HEH.  Under the Plan, up to 750,000 shares of the Issuer’s common stock may be sold beginning on June 10, 2009 with such shares to be sold in separate tranches at different specified market prices.  The Plan is scheduled to remain in effect until December 14, 2009.  The Plan was adopted in accordance with the Issuer’s insider trading policy and is intended to comply with the provisions of Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
