During 2004, We Expect to
Increase Production by:
- Recompleting Some Wells to
Known Gas Sands
- Performing Workovers,
Frac Jobs, Refracs, etc.
- Drilling New Wells
- Quickly Bringing on Line
New Well Production
- Expansion Opportunities

E&P Prospects
Ft. Worth Basin / Barnett Shale
Along With the San Juan Basin, the Powder River Basin, and the
Pinedale Anticline / Jonah Field, the Barnett Shale is One of the Largest
Non-Conventional Gas Plays Discovered in the U.S. Over the Past 25 Years
Infinity Has a Letter of Intent (LOI) to Acquire 25,000 Gross Acres in this Play
With an Initial 90% Working Interest; Opportunities Exist to Add More Acreage
The LOI Contemplates the Drilling of Four Horizontal Test Wells, Including
Three That Target the Barnett Shale
Miskito Basin / Offshore Nicaragua
One of the Least Explored High Potential Basins in the World
Cretaceous Reserves / Production in Area Among the Best in the World
Excellent Nicaraguan Production Contract – Awaiting Final Approvals
Infinity Will Control 1.4 Million Acres
Multi-Billion Barrel Field Potential Based on Regional Analogs

Fort Worth Basin Prospect
Investment Highlights
One of the Most Prolific and Prospective Non-Conventional Gas Plays in the U.S.
Our LOI Acreage is in a Relatively Unexplored Portion of the Barnett Shale
Infinity Would Operate With a 90% Initial Working Interest in the Acreage
Infinity’s Partners Have Had a Successful Track Record in the Barnett Shale
Up to Four Horizontal Test Wells in 2004 and 2005, Three Targeting the Barnett Shale
Land Acquisition and Development Costs Remain Attractive in the LOI Acreage Area
Less Operational Seasonality for Infinity Relative to the Rocky Mountain Projects
Ample Number of Drilling and Oilfield Service Providers
Proximity and Likely Availability of Gathering, Processing and Pipeline Infrastructure
Potential for 1-2 Bcf of Gas per Well, if Successful
Expansion Opportunities Would Likely Exist, if Successful
