Recent Transactions
Organization and Corporate History
The Company, founded as Energetics, Inc., was incorporated in the
state of Delaware on August 2, 1982. From inception to January
1, 1995, the Company was engaged in the business of exploration,
development and production of oil and natural gas. The Company
discontinued operations of its remaining assets and its three
subsidiaries leaving the Company with the debt reflected in the
Company's balance sheet and has since remained inactive. The
Company is considered to have been in the development stage since
January 1, 1995.
In July 1999, Jordan Smith, the sole remaining director of the
Company, appointed John Chymboryk to serve as director and
President of the Company. Mr. Smith subsequently resigned. Since
July, Mr. Chymboryk has been actively involved in moving the
Company forward. In connection with his activities, Mr. Chymboryk
reviewed the historical documents of the Company and determined
that certain actions were necessary to position the Company to
seek out business opportunities.
In September 1999, the Company entered into an Interim Funding
Agreement with Milagro Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation
("Milagro"), in which Milagro agreed to advance funds to the
Company, up to a total of $75,000, in exchange for equity
securities. At December 31, 1999, the Company had received
approximately $60,000 under this agreement. Mr. Chymboryk
determined that the Company's Delaware corporate charter had been
revoked, and was able to reinstate the Company in early November
3
<PAGE>
1999. However, in the interim, another Delaware corporation had
taken the name Energetics, Inc., and Mr. Chymboryk procured the
reinstatement under the current name, ENG Enterprises, Inc.
In addition, the Company's CUSIP number was changed from
292929106 to 268741105, its symbol on the OTCBB was changed form
EJTX to ENEI, it was assigned a new Employer Identification
Number by the IRS, and it changed stock transfer agent from AST
in Colorado to Interwest Transfer Company in Salt Lake City,
Utah. Concurrent with these changes, Mr. Chymboryk was able to
bring the financial information of the Company current, and
engaged counsel to file the Company's periodic reports with the
Securities and Exchange Commission so that the Company was
current in its filings. In addition, Mr. Chymboryk was
instrumental in negotiating settlements for approximately $2.3
million in outstanding notes and debt obligations of the Company,
and obtaining conversion agreements for most of the Company's
outstanding Preferred Stock.
