Serfy: Just watching and documenting. To be honest with you, I don't even know if Mr. A knows this board exists, so I certainly wouldn't refer to it as "his" board. Hopefully, he's too busy to be concerned with it at this time.

[xlr8rs]

Soggy a/k/a icuhavetheschwartz: You are accurate insofar as the players, but a little off insofar as the plays. This is the same Michael Alexander who was CEO of Fronthaul until on or about July 13, 2006, at which time Rufus Paul Harris became CEO of Fronthaul, which was reverse merged with a private company, CVSU, resulting in the public company of CSHD. Rufus Paul Harris remained CEO of CSHD until November 2, 2006. Michael Alexander served as CEO of CSHD for only around 12 days in November, at which time, he resigned. Michael Alexander was not CEO of CSHD at the time of the SEC suspension of the stock on October 24, 2006.

Regarding your reference to SEC indictments, as far as I am aware, no indictments have been handed down relating to the dealings of CSHD. There have been numerous rumors over the last few months of such, but not pertaining to Mr. Alexander.

The reason none of this is in the iBox is simply because this board is for ANLT. Dragging the saga of CSHD into this company would be grossly unfair to ANLT. Other than the common thread of Mr. Alexander having had dealings with both, CSHD and ANLT are two separate entities and should be treated as such.

Oooh, and a reverse split coming as well?

PROPOSAL NO. 2

APPROVAL OF THE RESOLUTIONS BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND AUTHORIZATION TO EFFECT A ONE-FOR-TWO, ONE-FOR-THREE OR ONE-FOR-FOUR REVERSE STOCK SPLIT OF THE COMPANY’S COMMON STOCK

General

The Board of Directors has approved and is recommending to the Company’s shareholders a proposal to effect a reverse stock split of all outstanding shares of the Common Stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”) at any time prior to [the next annual meeting of the shareholders]. In its discretion, the Board would be empowered to combine the Common Stock at any exchange ratio of (i) one-for-two, (ii) one-for-three or (iii) one-for-four. The Board has adopted resolutions approving the Reverse Stock Split, and recommending the Reverse Stock Split to the Company's shareholders for their approval. These resolutions are set forth in full below under the heading “Resolutions.” If market conditions are such that the Reverse Stock Split is not necessary to satisfy the NASDAQ continued listing maintenance standards or the Board determines that effecting the Reverse Stock Split would not be in the best interests of the Company’s shareholders, the Board will abandon all efforts to effect the Reverse Stock Split. The Reverse Stock Split will have no effect on the number of authorized shares of the Company’s Common Stock and preferred stock.

Background and Reasons for the Reverse Stock Split

During 2006 the Company’s Common Stock was traded on the NASDAQ Capital Market at a level below $1.00 per share. As a result, the Company has not met certain NASDAQ Capital Market listing maintenance requirements relating to the minimum bid price of the Common Stock. Under NASDAQ’s listing maintenance standards, if the closing bid price of the common stock remains under $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive trading days and does not thereafter trade above $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive trading days during the 180 calendar days following notification by NASDAQ that the Company has failed to meet these requirements, NASDAQ may delist the common stock from trading on the NASDAQ Capital Market. If delisted from the NASDAQ Capital Market, the Common Stock would trade on the OTC Bulletin Board or in the pink sheets maintained by National Quotation Bureau, Inc., which could adversely affect the trading in and liquidity of the Common Stock.

On July 21, 2006, the Company received a letter from NASDAQ advising the Company that its Common Stock had not met NASDAQ’s minimum bid price closing requirement for 30 consecutive trading days as set forth in NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 4310 (c)(4) (the “Rule”), and that, if the Company was unable to demonstrate compliance with this requirement for 10 consecutive trading days during the 180 calendar days ending January 17, 2007, the Common Stock would be delisted. On January 18, 2007, the Company received notice of a Nasdaq Staff Determination indicating that the Company has not regained compliance with the Rule. As the Company has failed to come into compliance with the Rule and has failed to meet the initial inclusion criteria set forth in Marketplace Rule 4310(c), the Common Stock is subject to delisting from the NASDAQ Capital Market. Pursuant to applicable NASD Marketplace Rules, on January 24, 2007, the Company requested a hearing with a NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel regarding the NASDAQ Staff's determination. The delisting of the Common Stock pending the Panel's review and determination has been stayed pending the outcome of the hearing which the Company attended on March 1, 2007. There can be no assurance that the Listing Qualifications Panel will grant the Company’s request for continued listing. If the Company is unsuccessful, the Company may appeal any adverse decision of the Panel to the Nasdaq Listing and Hearing Review Council. Any such appeal by the Company would not stay the ruling of the Listing Qualifications Panel.

Additionally, in order to avoid an event of default under the terms of our three senior secured convertible notes (“Convertible Notes”) totaling $1.65 million, the Company must complete a reverse stock split on or before May 31, 2007, unless the Company has regained compliance with the Rule. If the holders of the Convertible Notes declare an event of default, the Company would be required to repay 120% of the outstanding principal, accrued interest, costs, expenses, and liquidated damages. In order to meet this obligation, the Company would be forced to raise additional capital and/or liquidate assets. The Company’s efforts to raise additional capital would then be subject to the holders’ first lien security interest with respect to the Company’s assets. On the whole, there can be no assurance that the Company would be able to repay the Convertible Notes.

One of the key requirements for continued listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market is that the Common Stock must maintain a minimum bid price above $1.00 per share. The Reverse Stock Split will reduce the number of shares of common stock outstanding. The Board believes that this reduction might increase the per share market price of the Common Stock above $1.00, thereby allowing the Common Stock to qualify for continued listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market. The Board also believes that the resulting higher share price might generate additional interest in the Common Stock among investors who would look upon a stock trading below $1.00 as unduly speculative in nature, and, as a matter of policy or practice, avoid investments in these stocks.



13


However, while the Board believes that the Reverse Stock Split might cause shares of the Common Stock to trade at higher prices than those which have prevailed in recent fiscal quarters, the actual effect of the Reverse Stock Split upon the market price for the Common Stock cannot be predicted. There are numerous factors and contingencies that could adversely affect the value of the Common Stock, including prevailing economic or market conditions, and the Company’s reported results of operations in future fiscal periods.

The history of similar stock split combinations for companies in like circumstances is varied. There is no assurance that:


•
the trading price per share of Common Stock after the reverse stock split would rise in proportion to the reduction in the number of pre-split shares of Common Stock outstanding before the reverse stock split;

•
that the total market capitalization of the Common Stock (the aggregate of the then market price) after the proposed reverse split will be equal to or greater than the total market capitalization before the proposed reverse split; or

•
the market price of the Common Stock would also be based on the Company's performance and other factors, some of which are unrelated to the number of shares outstanding. If the Reverse Stock Split is consummated and the trading price of the Common Stock declines, the percentage decline as an absolute number and as a percentage of the Company's overall market capitalization may be greater than would occur in the absence of the Reverse Stock Split.

THEREFORE, THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE THAT THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK WILL, FOLLOWING THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT, CONTINUE TO TRADE AT A PRICE THAT WOULD PREVENT THE COMMON STOCK FROM BEING DELISTED FROM THE NASDAQ CAPITAL MARKET.

Nevertheless, if the Reverse Stock Split successfully increases the per share price of the Common Stock, the Board further believes such increase may facilitate future financings by the Company and enhance the Company’s ability to attract and retain employees and other service providers. It should be noted that the liquidity of the Company's Common Stock may be harmed by the proposed reverse split given the reduced number of shares that would be outstanding after the reverse stock split. The Board of Directors is hopeful, however, that the anticipated higher market price will reduce, to some extent, the negative effects on the liquidity and marketability of the Common Stock inherent in some of the policies and practices of institutional investors and brokerage houses described above.

The Board of Directors does not intend for this transaction to be the first step in a series of plans or proposals of a "going private transaction" within the meaning of Rule 13e-3 of the Securities Exchange Act.

The Board has considered the potential harm to the Company that could result from being delisted from the NASDAQ Capital Market and upon an event of default under the Convertible Notes, and has determined that the Reverse Stock Split is the best way to achieve and maintain compliance with NASDAQ’s listing maintenance standards and to fulfill certain of the Company’s contractual obligations with the holders of the Convertible Notes.

Material Effects of the Proposed Reverse Stock Split

If the Board elects to affect the Reverse Stock Split following shareholder approval, the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock would be reduced in accordance with an exchange ratio determined by the Board of Directors within the limits set forth in this Proposal Three. Except for adjustments that may result from the treatment of fractional shares as described below, each shareholder will hold the same percentage of the outstanding Common Stock immediately following the Reverse Stock Split as such shareholder held immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split. Proportionate voting rights and other rights and preferences of the holders of Common Stock will not be affected by the Reverse Stock Split. For example, a holder of 2% of the voting power of the outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split would continue to hold approximately 2% of the voting power of the outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately after the Reverse Stock Split. The number of shareholders of record also will not be affected by the Reverse Stock Split

As stated above, although the proposed Reverse Stock Split will not affect the rights of shareholders or any stockholder's proportionate equity interest in the Company, the number of authorized shares of Common Stock will not be reduced. This will increase significantly the ability of the Board to issue authorized and unissued shares without further stockholder action. The issuance in the future of such additional authorized shares may have the effect of diluting the earnings per share and book value per share, as well as the stock ownership and voting rights, of the currently outstanding shares of Common Stock.

The Company has outstanding the Convertible Notes, stock options and warrants. Under the terms of these Convertible Notes, options and warrants, when the Reverse Stock Split becomes effective, the number of shares covered by each of them will be decreased, as displayed in the table above, and the conversion or exercise price per share will be increased in accordance with the exchange ratio of the reverse split.

ANLT Convertible Debentures (as of 12-2006)

There are about six of them. This thing is toxic beyond belief!!!

On November 24, 2006, we issued to three investors, three one-year senior secured convertible notes (“collectively, the Convertible Notes”) totaling $1.65 million pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of November 24, 2006 (the "Purchase Agreement"). The Convertible Notes, together with interest that accrues at the rate of 13% per annum, are convertible into 2,374,101 shares of our Common Stock at a conversion price of $0.695 per share, which was $0.135 per share above fair market value of the Common Stock on the trading date preceding the closing date of November 24, 2006. Upon maturity at November 24, 2007, any unconverted outstanding principal and interest is due and payable in cash. In connection with the Purchase Agreement, we issued to the investors warrants to purchase 2,374,101 shares of our Common Stock at $0.57 per share (“Note Warrants”), which was $0.01 above the fair market value of the Common Stock on the trading date preceding the closing date. The Warrants are exercisable any time after May 24, 2007, and before November 24, 2011. Net proceeds after expenses totaled approximately $1.466 million. We also paid a cash finder’s fee of $132,000 and issued Note Warrants to purchase 189,928 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.57 per share to the placement agent, Palladium Capital Advisors, LLC. Proceeds are being used for working capital and to fund additional investments in oil and natural gas non-operating interests.

Table of Contents


The sale of the Convertible Notes and Note Warrants was made pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 as amended, and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder. Pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, on December 22, 2006, we filed a registration statement on Form S-3 to register 130% of the total shares issuable under the transaction.

We recorded the Convertible Notes at a discount after giving effect to the $272,300 estimated fair market value of the Note Warrants, which was credited to equity. The Note Warrants were valued using the Black Scholes Option Pricing model with the following assumptions: dividend yield of 0%, annual volatility of 125%, and risk free interest rate of 4.56%. The carrying value of the Convertible Notes is being accreted to the face amount by charges to interest expense over the one year term until maturity on November 24, 2007. The carrying value at December 31, 2006, was $1.4 million and represents the $1.65 million outstanding principal less the unearned discount of approximately $250,000.

We incurred financing costs totaling $183,500 pursuant to the Convertible Notes, including the finder’s fee, a 1% due diligence fee paid to the investors, and legal and professional fees. These deferred financing costs are being amortized to interest expense over the one year term of the Convertible Notes. After giving effect to the value of the Note Warrants and the financing costs, the effective rate of interest on the Convertible Notes is 56%.

On May 30, 2006, we issued 14% convertible senior secured promissory notes to two holders in the principal amount of $1.5 million and $0.5 million, respectively, (each, a “Senior Note”, and collectively the “Senior Notes”). The holders also received warrants entitling them to purchase, in the aggregate, 752,072 shares of the Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.186 per share, which was the closing bid price of the Common Stock on May 31, 2006, (“Class E Warrants”). On September 19, 2006, the holders exercised their right to accelerate the maturity of the Senior Notes to October 19, 2006, due to the failure of our shareholders to approve certain conversion terms and the issuance of additional warrants at our Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on August 29, 2006. On October 18, 2006, we paid the outstanding principal and interest of the Senior Notes, which totaled $2,012,274, utilizing cash reserves and the collection of $1.0 million of accounts receivable subsequent to September 30, 2006.

We recorded the Senior Notes at a discount after giving effect to the $80,424 estimated fair value of the Class E Warrants, which was credited to equity. We amortized the discount as interest expense over the two-year term of the Senior Notes until September 19, 2006, on which date we accelerated the rate of accretion to reflect the new maturity date of October 19, 2006. The remaining unearned discount of $43,196 as of September 30, 2006, were recorded as interest expense through October 19, 2006.

Table of Contents


We incurred expenses totaling approximately $249,000 related to the issuance of the Senior Notes. We recorded these expenses as prepaid or deferred financing costs. These expenses were amortized to other expense over the two-year term of the Senior Notes until September 19, 2006, on which date we accelerated the rate of amortization to reflect the new maturity date of October 19, 2006. The unamortized balance of these deferred costs, which totaled $133,728 on September 30, 2006, was recorded as other expense through October 19, 2006.

Convertible Preferred Stock

At December 31, 2006, we had outstanding 280,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred (“Convertible Preferred”), which are convertible into 220,472 of Common Stock on or before February 9, 2008.

On February 10, 2006, we issued 760,000 shares of Convertible Preferred with gross aggregate proceeds of approximately $760,000. The holders of 480,000 shares of Convertible Preferred converted their shares into 377,952 shares of Common Stock at $1.27 per share, which was determined by applying a 10% discount to the 5-day trailing average closing price of Common Stock of $1.41 on February 9, 2006. The holders of the Convertible Preferred received Class A Warrants that entitle them to purchase up to 299,212 shares of Common Stock at $1.34, or 101% of the closing bid price on February 10, 2006, and an equivalent number of Class B Warrants (collectively, the “February Warrants”) that carry an exercise price of $1.49, or 112% of the closing bid price on February 10, 2006. We also issued 82,678 Class A Warrants and 82,678 Class B Warrants to certain parties as a finder’s fee. The February Warrants are exercisable after six months from the date of closing until their expiration three years from the date of closing. A Registration Statement on Form S-3 to register all shares issuable pursuant to the Convertible Preferred and related February Warrants was declared effective on April 12, 2006. If the holders of the Convertible Preferred elect to receive future dividends in the form of Common Stock, we may issue up to an additional 25,500 shares of Common Stock in lieu of cash.

The Convertible Preferred earns dividends at a rate of 7% per annum. We recorded the Convertible Preferred at its offering price of $1 per share, net of the estimated $22,171 fair value of the February Warrants. The market value of Common Stock on the date that the Convertible Preferred was sold was $1.32 per share. In accordance with EITF 00-27, this created a beneficial conversion feature to the holders of the Convertible Preferred and a deemed dividend to the preferred stockholders totaling approximately $30,000. The intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature is the difference in fair market value of Common Stock on the grant date of the Convertible Preferred less the conversion price, multiplied by the number of shares that are issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Preferred, or $0.05 for each of 598,425 shares of Common Stock.

The deemed dividend was recorded in the quarter ending March 31, 2006, with a corresponding amount recorded as convertible preferred stock. The deemed dividend is calculated as the difference between the fair value of the underlying Common Stock less the proceeds that have been received for the Convertible Preferred.

[serfdom]

Do you know Mike pretty well xlr8rs? Just noticing you're a mod on this board now, in addition to CSHD. After all the horror and loss of capital he's caused retail investors, why would you still follow his stocks?

[serfdom]

Yes, huge red flags on this one. Sunken logs and the name "Mike Alexander" - combined with an endless series of convertible debentures (which appear to be ANLT's only product) - make this stock a deathtrap for any retail investor.

[soggyloggy]

>>Michael Alexander will become the CEO of the combined company<<

Is this the same Michael Alexander that was the CEO of CSHD when they were halted by the SEC - now under SEC indictment? Why wasn't that mentioned in the Merger PR or listed above in the Board Info Box?

[Private Placement]

Take your money and run. Real nice website www.soggylogs.com. Has a catalog of the types of wood and even photos (of course no one in the photos from the company). Strange thing is that they don't seem to be touting a proprietary license that gives them exclusive rights as they did before. If I were anyone considering investing in this company, I would call the Lake Dallas office and ask MA or DP to show a plane ticket that they have even been to Brazil.

Not a basher here, but a pissed off CSHD bagholder. I don't want to see these guys do this again. One of these leaders has a glorious business career in law enforcement and the other is good at bankrupting construction companies. Know who you invest with before you put any money down!

[JJSeabrook]

NOW it's got Michael Alexander in it!

Section 10.2. Parent’s Indemnity Obligations.

Section 10.3. Indemnification Procedures. All claims for indemnification under this Agreement shall be asserted and resolved as follows:
(a) A party claiming indemnification under this Agreement (an “Indemnified Party”) shall with reasonable promptness (i) notify the party from whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) of any third-party claim or claims asserted against the Indemnified Party (“Third Party Claim”) for which indemnification is sought and (ii) transmit to the Indemnifying Party a copy of all papers served with respect to such claim (if any) and a written notice (“Claim Notice”) containing a description in reasonable detail of the nature of the Third Party Claim, an estimate of the amount of damages attributable to the Third Party Claim to the extent feasible (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such claim) and the basis of the Indemnified Party’s request for indemnification under this Agreement.
Within 15 days after receipt of any Claim Notice (the “Election Period”), the Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party (i) whether the Indemnifying Party disputes its potential liability to the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim and (ii) whether the Indemnifying Party desires, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, to defend the Indemnified Party against such Third Party Claim.
32
If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party within the Election Period that the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of the Third Party Claim, then the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend, at its sole cost and expense, such Third Party Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings shall be prosecuted diligently by the Indemnifying Party to a final conclusion or settled at the discretion of the Indemnifying Party in accordance with this Section 10.3(a). The Indemnifying Party shall have full control of such defense and proceedings. The Indemnified Party is hereby authorized, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, to file, during the Election Period, any motion, answer or other pleadings that the Indemnified Party shall reasonably deem necessary or appropriate to protect its interests. If requested by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party agrees to cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in contesting any Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party elects to contest, including, without limitation, the making of any related counterclaim against the person asserting the Third Party Claim or any cross-complaint against any person. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Indemnified Party may participate in, but not control, any defense or settlement of any Third Party claim controlled by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Section 10.3 and shall bear its own costs and expenses with respect to such participation.
If the Indemnifying Party fails to notify the Indemnified Party within the Election Period that the Indemnifying Party elects to defend the Indemnified Party pursuant to the preceding paragraph, or if the Indemnifying Party elects to defend the Indemnified Party but fails to prosecute or settle the Third Party Claim as herein provided or if the Indemnified Party reasonably objects to such election on the grounds that counsel for such Indemnifying Party cannot represent both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Parties because such representation would be reasonably likely to result in a conflict of interest, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Third Party Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings shall be promptly and vigorously prosecuted by the Indemnified Party to a final conclusion or settled. The Indemnified Party shall have full control of such defense and proceedings. The Indemnifying Party may participate in, but not control, any defense or settlement controlled by the Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 10.3, and the Indemnifying Party shall bear its own costs and expenses with respect to such participation.
The Indemnifying Party shall not settle or compromise any Third Party Claim unless (i) the terms of such compromise or settlement require no more than the payment of money (i.e., such compromise or settlement does not require the Indemnified Party to admit any wrongdoing or take or refrain from taking any action), (ii) the full amount of such monetary compromise or settlement will be paid by the Indemnifying Party, and (iii) the Indemnified Party receives as part of such settlement a legal, binding and enforceable unconditional satisfaction and/or release, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to it, providing that such Third Party Claim and any claimed liability of the Indemnified Party with respect thereto is being fully satisfied by reason of such compromise or settlement and that the Indemnified Party is being released from any and all obligations or liabilities it may have with respect thereto. The Indemnified Party shall not settle or admit liability to any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party unless (x) the Indemnifying Party has disputed its potential liability to the Indemnified Party, and such dispute either has not been resolved or has been resolved in favor of the Indemnifying Party or (y) the Indemnifying Party has failed to respond to the Indemnified Party’s Claim Notice.
(b) In the event any Indemnified Party should have a claim against any Indemnifying Party hereunder that does not involve a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall transmit to the Indemnifying Party a written notice (the “Indemnity Notice”) describing in reasonable detail the nature of the claim, an estimate of the amount of damages attributable to such claim to the extent feasible (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such claim) and the basis of the Indemnified Party’s request for indemnification under this Agreement.
Section 10.4. Determination of Indemnified Amounts. The Indemnified Amounts payable by an Indemnifying Party hereunder shall be determined (i) by the written agreement of the parties, (ii) by mediation, (iii) by a final judgment or decree of any court of competent jurisdiction, or (iv) by any other means agreed to in writing by the parties. A judgment or decree of a court shall be deemed final when the time for appeal, if any, shall have expired and no appeal shall have been taken or when all appeals taken have been fully determined. In calculating or determining the Indemnified Amounts, such calculation or determination shall take into account the actual receipt of any amounts from any third party and the reductions to such Indemnified Amounts in Section 10.7.
Section 10.5. Limitation of Shareholder’s Liability.
(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Article X, the aggregate liability of the Shareholders for any event or occurrence giving rise to the Shareholders being required to indemnify Parent Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 10.1 of this Agreement shall be limited to the sum of the fair market value of the Merger Consideration.
(b) Parent Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 10.1 only to the extent that the amount of any Indemnified Amount, individually or in the aggregate, exceeds $[25,000] and then to the full amount of such Indemnified Amount.
Section 10.6. Limitation of Parent’s Liability.
(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Article X, the aggregate liability of Parent for any event or occurrence giving rise to Parent being required to indemnify Shareholders’ Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 10.2 shall be limited to $1,000,000.
(b) Shareholders’ Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 10.2 only to the extent that the amount of any Indemnified Amount, individually or in the aggregate, exceeds $25,000 and then to the full amount of such Indemnified Amount.
Section 10.7. Limitation on Indemnified Amounts. Notwithstanding any provision of this Article X to the contrary, Indemnified Amounts owed by an Indemnifying Party to an Indemnified Party shall be reduced by the amount of any mitigating recovery or benefit (net of reasonable expenses and tax and other costs incurred in obtaining such recovery or benefit) an Indemnified Party shall have received or otherwise enjoyed with respect thereto from: (i) any recovery under any insurance policies, without regard to whether the Indemnified Party or another person paid the premiums therefor; and (ii) the amount of tax or other economic benefit (if any) to any Indemnified Party or its affiliate occurring in connection with the occurrence of any action, cause of action, arbitration, proceeding, loss, damage, remediation, liability, strict liability, judgment, fine, penalty and expense in connection with an event leading to the accrual of Indemnified Amounts. If such a mitigating recovery or benefit set forth in Section 10.7(i) and (ii) above is received or enjoyed by an Indemnified Party after it receives payment or other credit under this Agreement with respect to Indemnified Amounts, then a refund equal in aggregate amount to the mitigating recovery, net of reasonable expenses and tax or other costs incurred in obtaining recovery, shall be made promptly to the Indemnifying Party.

EXHIBIT A

FORM OF AFFILIATE LETTER




Re:

Affiliate’s Agreement

Ladies and Gentlemen:

I have been advised that as of the date of this letter I may be deemed to be an “affiliate” of Ecowood, Inc. a Texas corporation (the “Company”), as the term “Affiliate” is defined for purposes of paragraphs (c) and (d) of Rule 145 of the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”). Pursuant to the terms of that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of March 16, 2007, as amended, by and between Analytical Surveys, Inc. a Colorado corporation (“ASI”), ANLT Acquisition Sub, a Texas corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), the Company and the Shareholders named therein (the “Merger Agreement”), 100% of the outstanding capital stock of the Company will be acquired by ASI through the merger of the Company with and into Merger Sub. Initially capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the same meanings given to them in the Merger Agreement unless otherwise defined herein.

As a result of the Merger, I may receive shares of common stock, no par value per share, of ASI (“ASI Common Stock”) in exchange for shares owned by me of common stock, par value $1.00 per share of the Company (“Company Common Stock”).

I understand my execution and delivery of this Letter is a material inducement to ASI to consummate the Merger. In consideration of the Merger and the mutual covenants contained herein, I hereby represent, warrant and agree that:

1. ASI has informed me that the issuance of shares of ASI Common Stock will be registered under the Act on a Registration Statement on Form S-4, and that any distribution by the undersigned of ASI Common Stock that has not been registered under the Act and that such shares received pursuant to the Merger can only be sold by the undersigned (i) following registration under the Act, or (ii) in conformity with the volume and other applicable requirements of Rules 144 or 145(d) promulgated by the SEC as the same now exist or may hereafter be amended, or (iii) to the extent some other exemption from registration under the Act might be available.

2. I am aware that ASI and the Company intend to treat the Merger as a tax-free reorganization under Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the “Code” ), for federal income tax purposes. I agree to treat the transaction in the same manner as ASI and the Company for federal income tax purposes. I acknowledge that Section 1.368-1(b) of the U.S. federal income tax regulations requires “continuity of interest” in order for the Merger to be treated as a tax-free reorganization under Section 368 of the Code. Continuity of interest may not be preserved if stock of an acquired company is disposed of before an acquisition to the acquired or acquiring company or to persons related to either the acquired or acquiring companies for consideration other than stock of the acquiring company, if a shareholder of the acquired company received certain distributions from the acquired company with respect to his stock in connection with the acquisition, or if stock of the acquiring company issued in the Merger is disposed of in connection with the Merger to the acquiring company or to persons related to the acquiring company. Accordingly, I declare that in connection with the Merger (i) I have not and will not dispose of any of the stock of either the Company or ASI to either the Company or ASI (other than in exchange for the Merger Consideration), to a person related to the Company (within the meaning of Section 1.368-1(e)(1)(i)(sixth sentence) of the U.S. federal income tax regulations) or to a person related to ASI (within the meaning of Section 1.368-1(e)(3) of such regulations), (ii) I have not and will not receive any dividend or other distribution with respect to the stock of the Company attributable directly or indirectly to funds provided by ASI, and (iii) I will not dispose of any ASI Common Stock received in the Merger to ASI or to a person related to ASI within the meaning of Section 1.368-1(e)(3) of the U.S. federal income tax regulations.

37
3. I understand and agree that stop transfer instructions with respect to the shares of ASI Common Stock I receive pursuant to the Merger will be given to ASI’s transfer agent and that there will be placed on the certificates for such shares, or shares issued in substitution thereof, a legend stating substantially as follows:

THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT OR UNLESS (1) COVERED BY AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR AN EXEMPTION THERE FROM, (2) IN ACCORDANCE WITH (I) RULE 145(D) (IN THE CASE OF SHARES ISSUED TO AN INDIVIDUAL WHO IS NOT AN AFFILIATE OF THE ISSUER) OR (II) RULE 144 (IN THE CASE OF SHARES ISSUED TO AN INDIVIDUAL WHO IS AN AFFILIATE OF THE ISSUER) OF THE RULES AND REGULATIONS OF SUCH ACT, OR (3) IN ACCORDANCE WITH A LEGAL OPINION SATISFACTORY TO COUNSEL FOR THE ISSUER THAT SUCH SALE OR TRANSFER IS OTHERWISE EXEMPT FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF SUCH ACT. FOR AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, IT IS UNDERSTOOD THAT A LEGAL OPINION IS NEITHER REQUIRED BY LAW NOR THIS LEGEND AND IT SHALL BE IN THE ISSUER’S SOLE DISCRETION WHETHER OR NOT TO REQUIRE THAT A LEGAL OPINION BE DELIVERED TO IT PRIOR TO ANY SUCH, TRANSFER OR OTHER DISPOSITION.

Such legend will also be placed on any certificate representing ASI securities issued subsequent to the original issuance of ASI Common Stock pursuant to the Merger as a result of any stock dividend, stock split, or other recapitalization as long as the ASI Common Stock issued to me pursuant to the Merger has not been transferred in such manner to justify the removal of the legend therefrom. If the provisions of Rules 144 and 145 are amended to eliminate restrictions applicable to the ASI Common Stock I received pursuant to the Merger, or at the expiration of the restrictive period set forth in Rule 145(d), ASI, upon my request, will cause the certificates representing the shares of ASI Common Stock issued to me in connection with the Merger to be reissued free of any legend relating to the restrictions set forth in Rules 144 or 145(d) upon receipt by ASI of an opinion of its counsel to the effect that such legend may be removed.

4. I have carefully read the Merger Agreement and this Letter and discussed their requirements and impact upon the ability to sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of the shares of ASI Common Stock received by me, to the extent I believe necessary, with my counsel.

5. If I desire to sell or otherwise transfer the shares of ASI Common Stock I receive in connection with the Merger at any time during the restrictive period set forth in Rule 145(d), I will provide the necessary representation letter to the transfer agent for ASI Common Stock together with such additional information as the transfer agent may reasonably request.

38
6. I recognize and agree that the foregoing provisions also may apply to (i) my spouse, if my spouse has the same home as me, (ii) any of my relatives who have the same home as me, (iii) any trust or estate in which I, my spouse, and any such relative collectively own at least a 10% beneficial interest or of which any of the foregoing serves as trustee, executor, or in any similar capacity, and (iv) any corporation or other organization in which I, my spouse, and any such relative collectively own at least 10% of any class of equity securities or of the equity interest. I further recognize that, under certain circumstances, any sale of ASI Common Stock by me within a period of less than six months following the effective time of the Merger may subject me to liability pursuant to Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

7. I acknowledge that (i) the covenants and the restrictions contained in this Agreement are necessary, fundamental, and required for the protection of ASI and to preserve for ASI the benefits of the Merger; (ii) such covenants relate to matters which are of a special, unique, and extraordinary character that gives each of such covenants a special, unique, and extraordinary value; and (iii) a breach of any such covenants or any other provision of this Agreement shall result in irreparable harm and damages to ASI which cannot be adequately compensated by a monetary award. Accordingly, it is expressly agreed that in addition to all other remedies available at law or in equity, ASI shall be entitled to the immediate remedy of a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, or such other form of injunctive or equitable relief as may be used by any court of competent jurisdiction to restrain or enjoin any of the parties hereto from breaching any such covenant or provision or to specifically enforce the provisions hereof.

8. This Letter is the complete agreement between me and ASI concerning the subject matter hereof. Any notice required to be sent to any party hereunder shall be sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, using the addresses set forth herein or such other address as shall be furnished in writing by the parties. This Letter shall be governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws.

This Affiliate’s Agreement is executed as of the day of , 2007.

ANALYTICAL SURVEYS, INC. ENTERS INTO DEFINITIVE MERGER AGREEMENT WITH ECOWOOD, INC.

SAN ANTONIO and LAKE DALLAS, Texas - March 19, 2007 _ Analytical Surveys, Inc. (ASI) (Nasdaq Capital Market: ANLT), and Ecowood, Inc., (collectively, “the Companies”) today announced that the Companies have entered into a definitive merger agreement, under which the Companies will be combined in a tax-free, all stock merger to form an environmentally friendly, diversified natural resource company. The Companies announced they had signed a letter of intent to merge on March 13, 2007.

According to terms of the merger agreement, ASI will issue 31 million shares of common stock to the shareholders of Ecowood and its subsidiaries. The transaction is subject to approval by ASI shareholders, the satisfaction of customary closing conditions and regulatory review, and approvals from NASDAQ and the Securities and Exchange Commission, among others. Pending all approvals, the transaction may be completed by the second or third calendar quarter of 2007. ASI expects to file a proxy statement related to the merger on Form S-4 within the next 60 to 90 days.

The new combined company will focus on Ecowood’s core business of hardwood log recovery from the Amazon River system. In addition to cleansing the river system and relieving pressure on the living rainforest, the recovery process provides high-quality, commercial hardwood logs used in the production of furniture, hardwood floors and other wood-based products. There are an estimated 61.4 billion cubic meters of recoverable logs from the navigable river ways. The combined company will continue to operate the ASI Energy business, which is focused on the discovery of oil and natural gas resources, as a wholly owned subsidiary.

Ecowood will contribute assets that include property, customer contracts, and exclusive licenses and permits to salvage logs from several of the major rivers in Northern Brazil, principally the Amazon River. In addition, Ecowood will receive carbon credits for each log it recovers, introducing a secondary source of revenue to the sale of the recovered wood. The new company will also benefit from an existing financing package that provides access to more than $200 million for future investment and working capital.

Michael Alexander, chief executive officer of Ecowood, will become the CEO of the combined company and David Perley, chief operating officer of Ecowood, will remain in that position. Lori Jones, ASI’s CEO and former chief financial officer, will assume the position of CFO of the combined company.

“The management teams from both companies have been working very hard to conduct the due diligence process and move this transaction forward,” Alexander and Jones said in a joint statement. “As a combined company, we believe we can accelerate our progress toward full-scale recovery and production operations in Brazil. We are very encouraged by the opportunities this transaction represents to ASI, Ecowood and our respective shareholders.”

Analytical Surveys, Inc., is a San Antonio-based oil and gas company focused on participation in non-operating exploration and production of U.S. onshore oil and natural gas reserves. ASI is headquartered in San Antonio, Texas. For more information, please visit www.asienergy.com.

Ecowood, Inc. was formed in February 2007 to salvage lost logs on several of the major rivers in Northern Brazil, principally the Amazon River. Over the past 300 years, a great number of logs have been lost on the way to sawmills. New technology and modern equipment now make it practical and profitable to salvage the estimated 61.4 billion cubic meters of recoverable logs from the navigable river ways.

[JJSeabrook]

Actually not, That one sucked! See the next one. LOL

[PA Portman]

JJ...looks like the standard annual meeting stuff to me. I really would not expect MA to be there. Merging with another company with like board members...private or not is always a hassle.

All those members are already board members and the merger agreement states the new officer appointments anyway. So, that would restate what goes on at the meeting. One good thing it does do is permit shareholders to reset the board and officers if they really do not want this merger.

So, I don't see this as bad. Don't just rip it because you do not like MA or feel he is a scammer.

Remember, I would say the very same thing to someone who comments on you in the same light.

I think you made you point clear on your position on MA. I want to keep this board from becoming like the other board. Help me keep it rational and all the personal stuff out.

LMAO Too funny!

PROXY STATEMENT
2007 Annual Meeting of Shareholders


This Proxy Statement and accompanying proxy card are furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies on behalf of the Board of Directors (“Board”) of Analytical Surveys, Inc., a Colorado corporation (the “Company”), for use at the annual meeting of shareholders to be held on May 2, 2007, 8610 North New Braunfels, Suite 205, San Antonio, Texas, at 10:00 a.m., local time, or at any adjournment or adjournments thereof (such meeting or adjournment(s) thereof referred to as the “Annual Meeting”) for the purpose of considering and voting upon the matters set forth in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Copies of the Proxy Statement and the accompanying proxy card are first being mailed to shareholders on or about March 27, 2007.

Record Date; Shares Entitled to Vote; Quorum

The Board has fixed the close of business on March 21, 2007, as the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting.

The number of outstanding shares of common stock, no par value per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”) entitled to vote at the meeting is 3,704,256. Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote. The presence in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting of the holders of a majority of such shares shall constitute a quorum. There is no cumulative voting. Abstentions and broker “non-votes” are treated as shares that are present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum. “Non-votes” occur when a proxy:


•

is returned by a broker or other stockholder who does not have authority to vote;

•

does not give authority to a proxy to vote; or

•

withholds authority to vote on one or more proposals.

Votes Required

The vote required for each of the proposals is as follows:

Election of Directors. In accordance with the Company’s By-Laws, directors are elected by a plurality vote, i.e. the nominees for director who receive the most votes will be elected. Therefore, if you do not vote for a particular nominee or you indicate “withhold authority to vote” for a particular nominee on your proxy card, your abstention will have no effect on the election of directors. The persons named as proxy holders in the accompanying proxy intend to vote each properly signed and submitted proxy FOR the election as a director of each of the persons named as a nominee below under “Nominees for Director” unless authority to vote in the election of directors is withheld on such proxy.

Proposal Nos.2 and 3. Proposals 2 and 3 require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock represented and voting at the meeting. Therefore, all abstentions will have the same legal effect as a vote AGAINST each of the proposals. Non-votes are not considered present at the meeting for these proposals and will have no effect on their approval.

A proxy received by the Board may be revoked by the shareholder giving the proxy at any time before it is exercised. A shareholder who signs and mails the enclosed proxy, even though executed and returned, may revoke the proxy at any time prior to the voting of the proxy by (i) notification in writing to the Company at 8610 N. New Braunfels, Suite 205, San Antonio, Texas 78217, Attention: Corporate Secretary, (ii) execution of a proxy bearing a later date, or (iii) attendance at the Annual Meeting and voting by ballot. To revoke a proxy previously submitted by telephone or the Internet, a shareholder of record can simply vote again at a later date using the same procedures, in which case the later submitted vote will be recorded and the earlier vote will thereby be revoked.

Accordingly, a majority of the current directors and a majority of the nominees for director meet the definition of independence under the NASDAQ Capital Market listing requirements.

Board of Directors Meetings and Committees

During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2006, the Board met seven times. All of the directors attended at least 75 percent of the meetings of the Board and committee meetings of which they were a member during the time they served as directors. The Company does not have a formal policy regarding director attendance at annual meetings of shareholders, however, it is expected, absent good reason, that all directors will be in attendance. Seventy-five percent of the directors of the Company attended in person or via telephone the Annual Meeting of Shareholders held in 2006.

Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee met four times during fiscal 2006. The Compensation Committee reviews and recommends to the Board salary and incentive compensation, including bonus, stock options and restricted stock for the Chief Executive Officer; reviews and approves the salaries and incentive compensation for all corporate officers; and advises the Board of Directors with respect to the incentive compensation to be allocated to employees. The Compensation Committee does not include any employees or former or current officers of the Company. The Board of Directors has determined that all of the members of the Compensation Committee are independent, as defined in NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 4200(a)(15).

Audit Committee

The primary purposes of the Audit Committee, which met four times in fiscal 2006, are to recommend the appointment of the Company’s independent accountants; review the scope and results of the audit plans of the independent accountants; oversee the scope and adequacy of the Company’s internal accounting control and record-keeping systems; review non-audit services to be performed by the independent accountants; and determine the appropriateness of fees for audit and non-audit services performed by the independent accountants. The Board has determined that both Mr. Roddy and Mr. Gistaro are audit committee financial experts as described in Item 401(e) of Regulation S-B. In addition, the Board has determined that each member of the Audit Committee is financially literate and independent, as defined in NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 4200(a)(15) and Item 7(d)(3)(iv) of Schedule 14A under the Exchange Act.

The Audit Committee has a written charter; a copy of the charter is available at the Company’s website at www.asienergy.com and is attached to this proxy statement as Appendix A.

Director Nomination Policy

The Company does not currently have a standing Nominating Committee or a Nominating Committee Charter. Currently, a majority of the independent members of the Board (as determined by the Board as required by the NASD listing standards), rather than a Nominating Committee, approves or recommends to the full Board those persons to be nominated. The Board believes that the current method of nominating directors is appropriate because it complies with NASD listing standards.

The Board has, by resolution, adopted a director nomination policy. The purpose of the policy is to describe the process by which candidates for inclusion in the Company’s recommended slate of director nominees are selected. The director nomination policy is administered by the Board.

Candidates for Board membership must possess the background, skills and expertise to make significant contributions to the Board, to the Company and its shareholders. Desired qualities to be considered include substantial experience in business or administrative activities; breadth of knowledge about issues affecting the Company; and ability and willingness to contribute special competencies to Board activities. The independent members of the Board also consider whether members and potential members are independent under the NASD listing standards. In addition, candidates should possess the following attributes: personal integrity; absence of conflicts of interest that might impede the proper performance of the responsibilities of a director; ability to apply sound and independent business judgment; sufficient time to devote to Board and Company matters; ability to fairly and equally represent all shareholders; reputation and achievement in other areas; independence under rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and the NASD listing standards; and diversity of viewpoints, background and experiences.

The Board intends to review the director nomination policy from time to time to consider whether modifications to the policy may be advisable as the Company’s needs and circumstances evolve, and as applicable legal or listing standards change. The Board may amend the director nomination policy at any time.



3


Shareholder Nominations

The Board will consider director candidates recommended by shareholders and will evaluate such director candidates in the same manner in which it evaluates candidates recommended by other sources.

Summary Description of Equity Compensation Plans That Have Not Been Approved by the Shareholders

2000 Stock Incentive Plan

In September 2000, the Board adopted the 2000 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2000 Plan”). Pursuant to applicable law, the 2000 Plan has not been approved by the Company’s shareholders. The 2000 Plan provides for the granting of incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options, as determined by a committee appointed by the Board.

Number of Shares Subject to the 2000 Plan. The 2000 Plan authorizes the grant of options relating to an aggregate of 50,000 shares of Common Stock. If any corporate transaction occurs which causes a change in our capitalization (for example, a reorganization, recapitalization, stock split, stock dividend, or the like), the number of shares of stock available and the number of shares of stock subject to outstanding options granted under the 2000 Plan will be adjusted appropriately and equitably to prevent dilution or enlargement of a participant’s rights.

Eligibility for Participation. Individuals eligible to participate in the 2000 Plan are employees of the Company and its subsidiaries, but not any of the officers of the Company or its subsidiaries.

Terms of Options. Options granted to employees may be either incentive stock options (ISOs), which satisfy the requirements of Internal Revenue Code Section 422, or nonstatutory stock options (NSOs), which are not intended to satisfy such requirements. The exercise price for the grant of an NSO under the 2000 Plan may be any price that is greater than or equal to 85% of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date the NSO is granted. The exercise price of an ISO must be at least equal to 100% (110% for 10%-shareholders) of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date the ISO is granted. Options expire at the times determined by the committee, as specified in the applicable award agreement. However, no option is exercisable later than the tenth anniversary of the grant date, and any ISO granted to a 10%-shareholder must be exercisable on or before the fifth anniversary of the grant date.

Vesting and Acceleration. Options vest at the times determined by the committee, as specified in the applicable award agreement. A participant’s options become fully vested upon the termination of the participant’s employment as a result of a reduction in force and upon the occurrence of a change in control of the Company. In general, a change in control will be deemed to have occurred upon the acquisition by any person of more than 50% of the Company’s outstanding voting securities (or securities subject to conversion into voting securities), the acquisition by any person of the power to elect a majority of the Company’s directors, certain mergers and other corporate transactions if the holder’s of the Company’s voting securities before the transaction receive less than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the reorganized, merged or consolidated entity, after the transaction, and the complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company, or the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, if approval of the Company’s shareholders is required for the transaction.

Deduction to the Company. The Company will be entitled to an income tax deduction equal to the amount of ordinary income recognized by a participant. The deduction generally will be allowed for the Company’s taxable year in which occurs the last day of the calendar year in which the participant recognizes ordinary income.

Term. The 2000 Plan expires on September 8, 2010.

2000 Officer and Employee Recruitment Stock Incentive Plan

In September 2000, the Board adopted the 2000 Officer and Employee Recruitment Stock Incentive Plan (the “2000 Recruitment Plan”). Pursuant to applicable law, the 2000 Recruitment Plan has not been approved by the Company’s shareholders. The 2000 Recruitment Plan provides for the granting of ISOs and NSOs, as determined by a committee appointed by the Board.

Number of Shares Subject to the 2000 Recruitment Plan. The 2000 Recruitment Plan authorizes the grant of options relating to an aggregate of 50,000 shares of Common Stock, subject to adjustment in the case of a change in capitalization of the Company in the same manner as is provided in the 2000 Plan (described above).

Eligibility for Participation. An individual is eligible for participation in the 2000 Recruitment Plan if such individual has not been previously employed by the Company and the award of options is made in connection with the entry into an employment contract with such individual.

Terms of Options. The options granted under the 2000 Recruitment Plan have the same terms as are described above with respect to the 2000 Plan.

Vesting and Acceleration. The options granted under the 2000 Recruitment Plan are subject to the same vesting and acceleration provisions as are described above with respect to the 2000 Plan.

Deduction to the Company. The Company will be entitled to deductions for options granted under the 2000 Recruitment Plan as described above with respect to the 2000 Plan.

Term. The 2000 Recruitment Plan expires on September 8, 2010.

Employment Contracts and Termination of Employment, and Change-in-Control Arrangements

Chief Executive Officer

The Board of Directors appointed Lori A. Jones as Chief Executive Officer on December 20, 2004. Ms. Jones had previously served as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer since January 2003. Ms. Jones’ employment contract provides for a base salary of $175,000 and bonus compensation of $50,000 for the achievement of certain corporate goals. Upon termination of Ms. Jones’ employment without “cause” or if she resigns her employment for “good reason” (as defined, which includes a termination of employment in connection with a change of control), Ms. Jones will continue to receive salary for a period of twelve months. If Ms. Jones is terminated by the Company for “cause” (as defined) or if she terminates her employment voluntarily, she will not be entitled to receive severance pay. Ms. Jones also participates in any and all plans that are maintained for the benefit of the Company executives or employees in general.

Former Chief Financial Officer

Effective January 24, 2003, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Ms. Jones, as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, providing for a base salary of $135,000. Her base salary was increased to $175,000 by a letter amendment in August 2004. The employment agreement expired on March 31, 2005, and was amended effective April 1, 2005, to reflect her position as Chief Executive Officer. Pursuant to an amendment dated November 26, 2003, Ms. Jones was entitled to receive a $60,000 bonus payment upon the achievement of agreed-upon performance objectives for fiscal 2004. The bonus payment was paid in January 2005.

The position of Chief Financial Officer remains open as of January 25, 2007.

Former President and Chief Operating Officer

Effective June 5, 2005, Brian Morrow was employed as President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company pursuant to an employment agreement that provided for a base salary of $170,000, plus a $10,000 relocation allowance. No bonus payments have been made to Mr. Morrow, who was entitled to participate in a bonus plan under which he could receive up to $30,000, depending on whether agreed-upon performance objectives for fiscal 2005 were satisfied. Mr. Morrow also participated in all plans that are maintained for the benefit of the Company executives or employees in general. Upon termination of Mr. Morrow’s employment without “cause” (as defined in his employment agreement), Mr. Morrow would have continued to receive salary and benefits for six months. Mr. Morrow resigned effective December 2, 2005. The Company is not obligated to make severance payments to Mr. Morrow, and accordingly no payments will be made. Ms. Jones assumed his duties.

Senior Vice President

Donald L. Fryhover was appointed Senior Vice President of ASI Energy, a division of the Company, on April 24, 2006. Mr. Fryhover’s base salary is $135,000 per annum, and he is eligible to participate in an incentive reward program, which includes a 1% overriding royalty interest that is proportionately reduced to the Company’s net interest in all oil and gas deals. On his employment date, he was granted stock options for the purchase of up to 30,000 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.31 per share, the fair market value on the date of his employment. In the event of a termination resulting from a change in control, Mr. Fryhover will continue to receive his base salary for a period of six months.

Executive Vice President

Louis Dorfman, Jr. was appointed Executive Vice President of ASI Energy on September 29, 2006. Pursuant to a Letter Agreement, Mr. Dorfman will be paid a base salary equal to $135,000 per annum and will be eligible to participate in incentive reward programs, which include a 1% overriding royalty interest that is proportionately reduced to the Company’s net interest in all oil and gas deals. The Company issued options to Mr. Dorfman for the purchase of 50,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.69 per share, which was the closing bid price on the date of his employment. On January 11, 2007, the Board, upon recommendation from the Compensation Committee, amended Mr. Dorfman’s compensation package to include a severance package that provides for continuation of his base salary for a period of six months in the event of a termination of his employment in connection with a change of control of the Company.

Report of the Compensation Committee

The compensation committee follows established rationale and policies for compensating our executive officers. The compensation committee evaluates the compensation packages of our chief executive officer and all of our other executive officers on an annual basis or at the end of a contract term. The committee utilizes salary surveys and statistics to ensure compensation is commensurate for the office held and the size of the business. Base salaries are also negotiated after giving consideration to the risks and responsibilities pertaining to the individual as a public company officer. Bonus plans are included in the compensation package, but generally include only discretionary payments that are awarded based on company performance, which include achievement of revenue, profits, or achievement of qualitative rather than quantitative milestones, such as a successful solution to corporate challenges such as a successful negotiation or the settlement of litigation. The following report of the compensation committee describes these policies and rationales with respect to the compensation paid to such executive officers for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2006.

Officer Compensation Policy. The compensation committee's fundamental policy is to provide a compensation program for executive officers that will enable us to attract and retain the services of highly-qualified individuals and offer our executive officers competitive compensation opportunities based upon overall performance and their individual contribution to our financial success. The compensation committee uses third party compensation surveys and information to assure that executive compensation is set at levels within the current market range for companies in a similar industry and stage as ASI. It is the committee's objective to have a substantial portion of each officer's compensation contingent upon our performance, as well as upon such officer's own level of performance. Bonus targets are established for each executive officer but are discretionary and are awarded based on company and personal performance, which include revenue, operating results, new sales, achievement of qualitative milestones, retention incentives, and achievement of personal and company goals. Adjudication of bonus payments is based on the percentage of achievement of goals and evaluation of performance, with consideration given to the availability of cash and the overall position of ASI.

Employment Agreements. The executive officers were employed pursuant to written employment agreements or letter agreements during fiscal 2006 and 2005. The compensation committee has considered the advisability of using employment or letter agreements and has determined that it is in our best interests because it permits us to achieve our desired goals of motivating and retaining the best possible executive talent. Each employment agreement or letter agreement separately reflects the terms that the compensation committee felt were appropriate and/or necessary to recruit and retain the services of the particular executive officer, within the framework of our compensation policies.

Components of Executive Compensation. Each executive officer’s compensation package is comprised of three elements: base salary, which is designed to be competitive with salary levels of similar companies that compete with us for executive talent and reflects individual performance and the executive’s contribution; performance bonuses, which are based on the terms of the employment agreements; and long-term stock option awards, which create common interests for the executive officers and the shareholders.

Base Salary. The salaries paid to the executive officers in fiscal 2006 were based on the terms of their employment agreements or letter agreements and are set forth in the summary compensation table.

Bonuses. The executive officers are entitled to annual bonuses based upon the terms of their employment agreements (see “Employment Contracts” above) and discretionary bonuses based on their respective performance. In fiscal 2005, Ms. Jones received $60,000 bonus compensation pursuant to the November 2003 amendment to her employment contract as Chief Financial Officer. No bonuses were paid in fiscal 2006. Ms. Jones is eligible to receive approximately $50,000 in bonus payments in fiscal 2007 upon the achievement of certain corporate objectives unrelated to the oil and gas business strategy. Each executive officer participates in an incentive reward program that provides a 1% overriding royalty interest that is proportionately reduced to the Company's net interest in all oil and gas deals, plus 2.5% of earnings before interest and taxes.

Stock Option Plans. We have the Analytical Surveys, Inc. 1993 Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan, the Analytical Surveys, Inc. 1997 Incentive Stock Option Plan, the Analytical Surveys, Inc. Officer and Employee Recruitment Stock Incentive Plan and the Analytical Surveys, Inc. Year 2000 Stock Incentive Plan and the Analytical Surveys, Inc. 2003 Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan, as amended and supplemented. The Analytical Surveys, Inc. 1993 Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan expired on September 30, 2003. The 5,773 options outstanding under the plan will expire between June 2007 and August 2013 unless otherwise forfeited, cancelled or exercised. The option plans are long-term incentive plans for employees and are intended to align shareholder and employee interests by establishing a direct link between long-term rewards and the value of our Common Stock. The compensation committee believes that long-term stock incentives for executive officers and employees are an important factor in retaining valued employees. Because the value of an option bears a direct relationship to our Common Stock price, the compensation committee believes that options motivate officers and employees to manage the Company in a manner that will benefit all shareholders.

The options granted to the executive officers in fiscal 2006 were made in accordance with the terms of their employment agreements (see “Employment Contracts “) or at the discretion of the Board. Information with respect to option grants in fiscal 2006 to the executive officers is set forth in the Option Grants Table. Option grants in fiscal 2006 were granted with a vesting date of September 30, 2006, which is the end of the Company’s fiscal year and the date prior to the Company’s adoption of SFAS 123R. The compensation committee views stock option grants as important components of our long-term, performance-based compensation philosophy.

CEO Compensation. The compensation paid to Ms. Jones during fiscal 2006 was based upon the terms of her employment dated April 1, 2005. Such agreement is described under “Employment Contracts”. Ms. Jones’ base salary is designed to be competitive with salary levels of chief executive officers of similar companies that compete with us for executive talent and to be reflective of her performance and contribution to ASI.


9


Deductibility of Executive Compensation. The compensation committee is responsible for addressing the issues raised by Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m). Section 162 (m) limits to $1 million our deduction for compensation paid to certain of our executive officers who not qualify as “performance-based.” To qualify as performance based under Section 162(m), compensation payments must be made pursuant to a plan that is administered by a committee of outside directors and must be based on achieving objective performance goals. In addition, the material terms of the plan must be disclosed to and approved by shareholders, and the compensation committee must certify that the performance goals were achieved before payments can be awarded. We believe that all compensation paid to our executive officers listed in the summary compensation table in fiscal 2006 is fully deductible and that compensation paid under the plans will continue to be deductible. The committee’s present intention is to comply with the requirements of Section 162(m) unless and until the committee determines that compliance would not be in the best interest of the Company and our shareholders.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

No member of the Compensation Committee of the Board was, during fiscal 2006, an officer or employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or was formerly an officer of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or had any relationship requiring disclosure by the Company. During fiscal 2006, no executive officer of the Company served as (i) a member of the Compensation Committee (or other board committee performing equivalent functions) of another entity, one of whose executive officers served on the Compensation Committee of the Board, (ii) a director of another entity, one of whose executive officers served on the Compensation Committee of the Board, or (iii) a member of the compensation committee (or other Board committee performing equivalent functions) of another entity, one of whose executive officers served as a director of the Company.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), requires the Company’s directors and executive officers to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission and NASDAQ initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of Common Stock. Based solely on a review of the copies of such reports furnished to the Company and written representations that no other reports were required, the Company believes that all its directors and executive officers during fiscal 2006 complied on a timely basis with all applicable filing requirements under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act.

Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters

The following table sets forth information with respect to the shares of our Common Stock (the only outstanding class of voting securities) owned of record and beneficially as of March 15, 2007, unless otherwise specified, by (i) all persons known to possess voting or dispositive power over more than 5% of our Common Stock, (ii) each director and Named Executive Officer, and (iii) all directors and executive officers as a group: (Except as otherwise noted in the table, each person or group identified possesses sole voting and investment power with respect to such shares, subject to community property laws, where applicable, and the address of each shareholder is c/o Analytical Surveys, Inc., 8610 N.

Audit Committee Report

In accordance with a written charter adopted by the Board, the Audit Committee assists the Board in fulfilling its responsibility for oversight of the quality and integrity of the Company’s financial reporting processes. Management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements and the reporting process, including the system of internal controls. The independent auditors are responsible for performing an independent audit of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) for and issuing a report thereon.

In this context, the Audit Committee has met and held discussions with management and the independent auditors. Management represented to the Audit Committee that the Company’s consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the consolidated financial statements with management and the independent auditors. The Audit Committee discussed with the independent auditors matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61 (Communications with Audit Committees), as amended, including the quality and acceptability of the Company’s financial reporting process and controls.

The Audit Committee has discussed with the Company’s independent auditors the overall scope and plans for their respective audit. The Audit Committee meets at least annually with the independent auditors, with and without management present, to discuss the results of their examinations, the evaluations of the Company’s internal controls and the overall quality of the Company’s accounting principles.

In addition, the Audit Committee has discussed with the independent auditors the auditors’ independence from the Company and its management, including the matters in the written disclosures required by the Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence Discussions with Audit Committees) and also considered whether the provision of any non-audit services included below under “Principal Accountant Fees and Service” is compatible with maintaining their independence.

In performing all of these functions, the Audit Committee acts only in an oversight capacity and necessarily relies on the work and assurances of the Company’s management and independent auditors, which, in their report, express an opinion on the conformity of the Company’s annual financial statements to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred to in this Report and in light of its role and responsibilities, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board, and the Board has approved, that the audited financial statements of the Company for the year ended September 30, 2006 be included for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended September 30, 2006. The Committee has also approved, subject to shareholder ratification, the selection of Pannell Kerr Forster of Texas, P.C. and the Board concurred in its approval.

PROPOSAL NO. 2

APPROVAL OF THE RESOLUTIONS BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND AUTHORIZATION TO EFFECT A ONE-FOR-TWO, ONE-FOR-THREE OR ONE-FOR-FOUR REVERSE STOCK SPLIT OF THE COMPANY’S COMMON STOCK

General

The Board of Directors has approved and is recommending to the Company’s shareholders a proposal to effect a reverse stock split of all outstanding shares of the Common Stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”) at any time prior to [the next annual meeting of the shareholders]. In its discretion, the Board would be empowered to combine the Common Stock at any exchange ratio of (i) one-for-two, (ii) one-for-three or (iii) one-for-four. The Board has adopted resolutions approving the Reverse Stock Split, and recommending the Reverse Stock Split to the Company's shareholders for their approval. These resolutions are set forth in full below under the heading “Resolutions.” If market conditions are such that the Reverse Stock Split is not necessary to satisfy the NASDAQ continued listing maintenance standards or the Board determines that effecting the Reverse Stock Split would not be in the best interests of the Company’s shareholders, the Board will abandon all efforts to effect the Reverse Stock Split. The Reverse Stock Split will have no effect on the number of authorized shares of the Company’s Common Stock and preferred stock.

Background and Reasons for the Reverse Stock Split

During 2006 the Company’s Common Stock was traded on the NASDAQ Capital Market at a level below $1.00 per share. As a result, the Company has not met certain NASDAQ Capital Market listing maintenance requirements relating to the minimum bid price of the Common Stock. Under NASDAQ’s listing maintenance standards, if the closing bid price of the common stock remains under $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive trading days and does not thereafter trade above $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive trading days during the 180 calendar days following notification by NASDAQ that the Company has failed to meet these requirements, NASDAQ may delist the common stock from trading on the NASDAQ Capital Market. If delisted from the NASDAQ Capital Market, the Common Stock would trade on the OTC Bulletin Board or in the pink sheets maintained by National Quotation Bureau, Inc., which could adversely affect the trading in and liquidity of the Common Stock.

On July 21, 2006, the Company received a letter from NASDAQ advising the Company that its Common Stock had not met NASDAQ’s minimum bid price closing requirement for 30 consecutive trading days as set forth in NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 4310 (c)(4) (the “Rule”), and that, if the Company was unable to demonstrate compliance with this requirement for 10 consecutive trading days during the 180 calendar days ending January 17, 2007, the Common Stock would be delisted. On January 18, 2007, the Company received notice of a Nasdaq Staff Determination indicating that the Company has not regained compliance with the Rule. As the Company has failed to come into compliance with the Rule and has failed to meet the initial inclusion criteria set forth in Marketplace Rule 4310(c), the Common Stock is subject to delisting from the NASDAQ Capital Market. Pursuant to applicable NASD Marketplace Rules, on January 24, 2007, the Company requested a hearing with a NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel regarding the NASDAQ Staff's determination. The delisting of the Common Stock pending the Panel's review and determination has been stayed pending the outcome of the hearing which the Company attended on March 1, 2007. There can be no assurance that the Listing Qualifications Panel will grant the Company’s request for continued listing. If the Company is unsuccessful, the Company may appeal any adverse decision of the Panel to the Nasdaq Listing and Hearing Review Council. Any such appeal by the Company would not stay the ruling of the Listing Qualifications Panel.

Additionally, in order to avoid an event of default under the terms of our three senior secured convertible notes (“Convertible Notes”) totaling $1.65 million, the Company must complete a reverse stock split on or before May 31, 2007, unless the Company has regained compliance with the Rule. If the holders of the Convertible Notes declare an event of default, the Company would be required to repay 120% of the outstanding principal, accrued interest, costs, expenses, and liquidated damages. In order to meet this obligation, the Company would be forced to raise additional capital and/or liquidate assets. The Company’s efforts to raise additional capital would then be subject to the holders’ first lien security interest with respect to the Company’s assets. On the whole, there can be no assurance that the Company would be able to repay the Convertible Notes.

One of the key requirements for continued listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market is that the Common Stock must maintain a minimum bid price above $1.00 per share. The Reverse Stock Split will reduce the number of shares of common stock outstanding. The Board believes that this reduction might increase the per share market price of the Common Stock above $1.00, thereby allowing the Common Stock to qualify for continued listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market. The Board also believes that the resulting higher share price might generate additional interest in the Common Stock among investors who would look upon a stock trading below $1.00 as unduly speculative in nature, and, as a matter of policy or practice, avoid investments in these stocks.



13


However, while the Board believes that the Reverse Stock Split might cause shares of the Common Stock to trade at higher prices than those which have prevailed in recent fiscal quarters, the actual effect of the Reverse Stock Split upon the market price for the Common Stock cannot be predicted. There are numerous factors and contingencies that could adversely affect the value of the Common Stock, including prevailing economic or market conditions, and the Company’s reported results of operations in future fiscal periods.

The history of similar stock split combinations for companies in like circumstances is varied. There is no assurance that:



•

the trading price per share of Common Stock after the reverse stock split would rise in proportion to the reduction in the number of pre-split shares of Common Stock outstanding before the reverse stock split;


•

that the total market capitalization of the Common Stock (the aggregate of the then market price) after the proposed reverse split will be equal to or greater than the total market capitalization before the proposed reverse split; or


•

the market price of the Common Stock would also be based on the Company's performance and other factors, some of which are unrelated to the number of shares outstanding. If the Reverse Stock Split is consummated and the trading price of the Common Stock declines, the percentage decline as an absolute number and as a percentage of the Company's overall market capitalization may be greater than would occur in the absence of the Reverse Stock Split.

THEREFORE, THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE THAT THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK WILL, FOLLOWING THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT, CONTINUE TO TRADE AT A PRICE THAT WOULD PREVENT THE COMMON STOCK FROM BEING DELISTED FROM THE NASDAQ CAPITAL MARKET.

Nevertheless, if the Reverse Stock Split successfully increases the per share price of the Common Stock, the Board further believes such increase may facilitate future financings by the Company and enhance the Company’s ability to attract and retain employees and other service providers. It should be noted that the liquidity of the Company's Common Stock may be harmed by the proposed reverse split given the reduced number of shares that would be outstanding after the reverse stock split. The Board of Directors is hopeful, however, that the anticipated higher market price will reduce, to some extent, the negative effects on the liquidity and marketability of the Common Stock inherent in some of the policies and practices of institutional investors and brokerage houses described above.

The Board of Directors does not intend for this transaction to be the first step in a series of plans or proposals of a "going private transaction" within the meaning of Rule 13e-3 of the Securities Exchange Act.

The Board has considered the potential harm to the Company that could result from being delisted from the NASDAQ Capital Market and upon an event of default under the Convertible Notes, and has determined that the Reverse Stock Split is the best way to achieve and maintain compliance with NASDAQ’s listing maintenance standards and to fulfill certain of the Company’s contractual obligations with the holders of the Convertible Notes.

Material Effects of the Proposed Reverse Stock Split

If the Board elects to affect the Reverse Stock Split following shareholder approval, the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock would be reduced in accordance with an exchange ratio determined by the Board of Directors within the limits set forth in this Proposal Three. Except for adjustments that may result from the treatment of fractional shares as described below, each shareholder will hold the same percentage of the outstanding Common Stock immediately following the Reverse Stock Split as such shareholder held immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split. Proportionate voting rights and other rights and preferences of the holders of Common Stock will not be affected by the Reverse Stock Split. For example, a holder of 2% of the voting power of the outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split would continue to hold approximately 2% of the voting power of the outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately after the Reverse Stock Split. The number of shareholders of record also will not be affected by the Reverse Stock Split

As stated above, although the proposed Reverse Stock Split will not affect the rights of shareholders or any stockholder's proportionate equity interest in the Company, the number of authorized shares of Common Stock will not be reduced. This will increase significantly the ability of the Board to issue authorized and unissued shares without further stockholder action. The issuance in the future of such additional authorized shares may have the effect of diluting the earnings per share and book value per share, as well as the stock ownership and voting rights, of the currently outstanding shares of Common Stock.

The Company has outstanding the Convertible Notes, stock options and warrants. Under the terms of these Convertible Notes, options and warrants, when the Reverse Stock Split becomes effective, the number of shares covered by each of them will be decreased, as displayed in the table above, and the conversion or exercise price per share will be increased in accordance with the exchange ratio of the reverse split.

Upon receiving stockholder approval, the Board of Directors will have the sole discretion to elect, as it determines to be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders, whether or not to effect a one-for-two, one-for-three, or a one-for-four Reverse Stock Split. The Board of Directors believes that stockholder approval of these amendments granting the Board of Directors this discretion, rather than approval of a specified exchange ratio, provides the Board of Directors with maximum flexibility to react to then-current market conditions and, therefore, is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.

Fractional Shares

No fractional certificates will be issued as a result of the proposed Reverse Stock Split. Instead, shareholders who otherwise would be entitled to receive fractional shares, upon surrender to the exchange agent of such certificates representing such fractional shares, will be entitled to receive cash in an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the closing sales price of the Common Stock on the effective date as reported on the NASDAQ Capital Market by (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock held by such shareholder that would otherwise have been exchanged for such fractional share interest.

Exchange of Stock Certificates

If approved by the shareholders of the Company, the Reverse Stock Split would become effective on any date selected by the Board prior to the next annual meeting of the shareholders (the “Effective Date”). As soon as practicable after the Effective Date, the Company’s shareholders will be notified that the reverse split has been effected. The Company’s transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company, Inc. will act as exchange agent for purposes of implementing the exchange of stock certificates. Such person is referred to as the “exchange agent.” Holders of pre-reverse split shares will be asked to surrender to the exchange agent certificates representing pre-reverse split shares in exchange for certificates representing post-reverse split shares in accordance with the procedures to be set forth in a letter of transmittal to be sent by the exchange agent. No new certificates will be issued to a shareholder until such shareholder has surrendered such shareholder’s outstanding certificate(s) together with the properly completed and executed letter of transmittal to the exchange agent. As soon as practicable after the surrender to the exchange agent of any certificate which prior to the Reverse Stock Split represented shares of common stock, together with a duly executed transmittal letter and any other documents the exchange agent may specify, the exchange agent shall deliver to the person in whose name such certificate had been issued certificates registered in the name of such person representing the number of full shares of common stock into which the shares of common stock previously represented by the surrendered certificate shall have been reclassified and a check for any amounts to be paid in cash in lieu of any fractional share interest. Until surrendered as contemplated herein, each certificate which immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split represented any shares of common stock shall be deemed at and after the Reverse Stock Split to represent the number of full shares of common stock contemplated by the preceding sentence. Each certificate representing shares of common stock issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split will continue to bear any legends restricting the transfer of such shares that were borne by the surrendered certificates representing the shares of common stock. Shareholders should not destroy any stock certificate and should not submit any certificates until requested to do so and until they receive a transmittal form from the exchange agent.

Dissenters’ Right of Appraisal

Under the Colorado Business Corporation Act, the Company’s shareholders are not entitled to dissenter’s rights with respect to the proposed amendments to our charter to effect the Reverse Stock Split and the Company will not independently provide the shareholders with any such right.

Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences of a Reverse Stock Split

The following is a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of a reverse stock split. This summary is based on the Internal Revenue Code, of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, published statements by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and other applicable authorities on the date of this proxy statement, all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect. The Company has not and will not request a ruling from the IRS as to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split, and the following summary is not binding on the IRS or the courts. This summary does not address the tax consequences to holders that are subject to special tax rules, such as banks, insurance companies, regulated investment companies, personal holding companies, partnerships and other pass-through entities, broker-dealers and tax-exempt entities. Further, it does not address the tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split under any state, local or foreign laws, or under U.S. federal tax law other than income tax law. This summary also assumes that the shares of Common Stock held immediately prior to the effective time of the Reverse Stock Split were, and the new shares received will be, held as a “capital asset,” as defined in the Code (generally, property held for investment).

The Company believes that the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of a reverse stock split would be as follows:

·
The Company will not recognize any gain or loss as a result of the reverse stock split.
·
Shareholders will not recognize any gain or loss as a result of the Reverse Stock Split.
·
A shareholder’s aggregate tax basis in the shares of Common Stock held immediately after the Reverse Stock Split will be equal to such shareholder’s aggregate tax basis in the Common Stock immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split.
·
Each shareholder’s holding period in the Common Stock the shareholder holds immediately after the Reverse Stock Split will include the shareholder’s holding period in the Common Stock held immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split.
·
Each shareholder receiving cash in lieu of a fractional share will be treated as exchanging such fractional share for cash. Such shareholders will recognize gain or loss with respect to the fractional share equal to the difference between the amount of cash received and his or its basis in the stock given up. Such gain or loss will generally be long term capital gain or loss, provided the shares of the Common Stock were held, or treated as being held, for more than one year prior to the Reverse Stock Split.

The Company’s beliefs regarding the tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split are not binding on the IRS or the courts. Accordingly, the Company urges all shareholders to consult with their personal tax advisors with respect to all of the potential tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split.

The following is the full text of the resolutions unanimously passed by the board of directors on January 11, 2007:

WHEREAS, the Company received a letter from NASDAQ Listing Qualifications dated July 21, 2006, notifying the Company that its common stock, no par value per share (the “Common Stock”) will be delisted from the NASDAQ Capital Market, unless the closing bid price for the Common Stock is $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive trading days before January 17, 2007;

WHEREAS, the Board believes that a reduction in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock may result in an increase in the trading price for the Common Stock to $1.00 or more, thereby satisfying the listing requirements for continued listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market;

PROPOSAL NO. 3

APPROVAL OF APPOINTMENT OF PANNELL KERR FORSTER OF TEXAS, P. C.
AS THE COMPANY’S INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING SEPTEMBER 30, 2007

The Board, upon recommendation of its Audit Committee, has approved and recommends the appointment of Pannell Kerr Forster of Texas, P.C. (“PKF”), as independent public accountants to conduct an audit of the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2007. This firm has acted as independent public accountants for the Company since August 2004.

Representatives from PKF are expected to be available telephonically at the Annual Meeting and will have the opportunity to make a statement at the Annual Meeting, if they so desire. PKF representatives will also be available to respond to appropriate questions from shareholders.

No report of PKF on the Company’s financial statement for either of the Company’s last two fiscal years contained any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor was any such report qualified or modified as to audit scope or accounting principles, but such reports did express substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. This qualification was based on the significant operating losses reported and a lack of external financing to fund working capital.

In connection with the audits of the Company’s financial statements for the last two fiscal years, there were no disagreements with PKF on any matters of accounting principles, financial statement disclosure or audit scope and procedures which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of PKF, would have caused the firm to make reference to the matter in its report. During the Company’s last two fiscal years, there were no reportable events as described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-B.

Approval of this Proposal No. 5 will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of Common Stock represented and voting at the meeting. Abstentions will have the same effect as a vote against the proposal. Non-Votes are not considered present at the meeting for this proposal and will have no effect on the approval. In the event approval is not obtained, the Board of Directors will reexamine its selection of the Company’s independent auditors for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2007.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR THE APPROVAL OF THE APPOINTMENT OF PANNELL KERR FORSTER OF TEXAS, P. C. AS THE COMPANY’S INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING SEPTEMBER 30, 2007

18


All Other Fees.

There were no other fees billed in either of the fiscal years ended September 30, 2006 or September 30, 2005 for services rendered by Pannell Kerr Forster of Texas, P.C. or not reportable as Audit Fees, Audit-Related Fees or Tax Fees.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies

The Audit Committee has established a policy intended to clearly define the scope of services performed by our independent auditors for non-audit services. This policy relates to audit services, audit-related services, tax and all other services which may be provided by our independent auditor and is intended to assure that such services do not impair the auditor’s independence. The policy requires the pre-approval by the Audit Committee of all services to be provided by the Company’s independent auditor. Under the policy, the Audit Committee will annually review and pre-approve the services that may be provided by the independent auditor without obtaining specific pre-approval from the Audit Committee or its designee. In addition, the Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more of its members. The member or members to whom such authority is delegated is required to report to the Audit Committee at its next meeting any services which such member or members has approved. The policy also provides that the Audit Committee will pre-approve the fee levels for all services to be provided by the independent auditor. Any proposed services exceeding these levels will require pre-approval by the Audit Committee.

All of the services provided by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm described above under the captions Audit Fees, Audit-Related Fees, Tax Fees and All Other Fees were approved by the Audit Committee and the Audit Committee has determined that the auditor independence has not been compromised as a result of providing these services and receiving the fees for such services as noted above.
OTHER MATTERS

The Board knows of no other matters than those described above which are likely to come before the Annual Meeting. If any other matters properly come before the Annual Meeting, persons named in the accompanying form of proxy intend to vote such proxy in accordance with their best judgment on such matters.

SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS

[Private Placement]

Just stopped by to see what was going on here. I will warn all to take profits on this one. Don't be bag holders like all the FHAL investors these guys screwed! I am sitting on 200K of nearly worthless shares of CSHD thanks to my private placement investment in FHAL! My own fault though as I should have sold as I suspect they did and made money. I do find it ironic that this is the new home of ANLT when MA bashed "Ibash" constantly on HSM.

Take profits and run. Don't look back.

PR - 3-19-07 - Definitive Merger Agreement
Analytical Surveys, Inc. Enters Into Definitive Merger Agreement With Ecowood, Inc.
6:00a ET March 19, 2007 (PR NewsWire)

Analytical Surveys, Inc. (ASI) (Nasdaq: ANLT), and Ecowood, Inc., (collectively, "the Companies") today announced that the Companies have entered into a definitive merger agreement, under which the Companies will be combined in a tax-free, all stock merger to form an environmentally friendly, diversified natural resource company. The Companies announced they had signed a letter of intent to merge on March 13, 2007.

According to terms of the merger agreement, ASI will issue 31 million shares of common stock to the shareholders of Ecowood and its subsidiaries. The transaction is subject to approval by ASI shareholders, the satisfaction of customary closing conditions and regulatory review, and approvals from NASDAQ and the Securities and Exchange Commission, among others. Pending all approvals, the transaction may be completed by the second or third calendar quarter of 2007. ASI expects to file a proxy statement related to the merger on Form S-4 within the next 60 to 90 days.

The new combined company will focus on Ecowood's core business of hardwood log recovery from the Amazon River system. In addition to cleansing the river system and relieving pressure on the living rainforest, the recovery process provides high-quality, commercial hardwood logs used in the production of furniture, hardwood floors and other wood-based products. There are an estimated 61.4 billion cubic meters of recoverable logs from the navigable river ways. The combined company will continue to operate the ASI Energy business, which is focused on the discovery of oil and natural gas resources, as a wholly owned subsidiary.

Ecowood will contribute assets that include property, customer contracts, and exclusive licenses and permits to salvage logs from several of the major rivers in Northern Brazil, principally the Amazon River. In addition, Ecowood will receive carbon credits for each log it recovers, introducing a secondary source of revenue to the sale of the recovered wood. The new company will also benefit from an existing financing package that provides access to more than $200 million for future investment and working capital.

Michael Alexander, chief executive officer of Ecowood, will become the CEO of the combined company and David Perley, chief operating officer of Ecowood, will remain in that position. Lori Jones, ASI's CEO and former chief financial officer, will assume the position of CFO of the combined company.

"The management teams from both companies have been working very hard to conduct the due diligence process and move this transaction forward," Alexander and Jones said in a joint statement. "As a combined company, we believe we can accelerate our progress toward full-scale recovery and production operations in Brazil. We are very encouraged by the opportunities this transaction represents to ASI, Ecowood and our respective shareholders."

Analytical Surveys, Inc., is a San Antonio-based oil and gas company focused on participation in non-operating exploration and production of U.S. onshore oil and natural gas reserves. ASI is headquartered in San Antonio, Texas. For more information, please visit www.asienergy.com.

Ecowood, Inc. was formed in February 2007 to salvage lost logs on several of the major rivers in Northern Brazil, principally the Amazon River. Over the past 300 years, a great number of logs have been lost on the way to sawmills. New technology and modern equipment now make it practical and profitable to salvage the estimated 61.4 billion cubic meters of recoverable logs from the navigable river ways.

[dragon52]

Back from the dead?

maybe... lower ma's are trying to cross back over the 200ma...

let's see if it does... might be a major move up if so.

[dragon52]

appears another bounce coming up...

this week may be a good one.

[dragon52]

Nice bump up... inevitable eom

[dragon52]

last gasps before delisting??? hmmmm....

trying hard to stay above water... but you get that sinking feeling... looks like its treading water waiting for news.

[dragon52]

not looking good... gap down

possible manipulation... who knows... down side doji could be bottom as it closed at the open.

[dragon52]

consolidation... watch for a break out soon...

50DMA crossing the 200DMA ever so quietly... normally referred to as the Golden Cross... if the price should jump it will draw the 50 right up.

[dragon52]

consolidation obviously... hope it tracks...

oversold now.

[dragon52]

LMAO... provided it bounces... whoa... nice drop today

off the cliff....

oh well...

[dragon52]

Think the next time it bounces....

it should stay up not come back down... lol

[dragon52]

Bounce in a day or so... came back to the support line...

good sign.

[dragon52]

Happy New Year....

watch the next two trading days....

something is about to happen...

[dragon52]

ANLT showing accumulation and consolidation

could pop soon...

if it maintains this level, should move nicely when its time....

[Freakinmarkets]

ANLT looks ripe to pop to me!

Recent news found on the web for ANLT:

Dec. 21, 2005

BWR contained this "The company seems to have the fundamentals and business plan to surge back to new highs"
link needs to be seen

http://www.marketwire.com/mw/release_html_b1?release_id=104675

Thursday December 8, 2005 10:03 am ET


``Recent news flow from the company has been very positive."
``We are expecting positive news flow from ANLT in the coming days and feel that Analytical Surveys Inc. should
be on Wall Street's Radar.'

[dragon52]

days not done but right on course as thought....

closing higher than yesterday would be par and could see much higher prices next week toward the end of the year....

consolidation going on right now... chart is on the money.

[dragon52]

still within reason and tracks...

might pull higher tomorrow....

[dragon52]

Amazing when you follow the tracking...

it hits resistance and bounce back down... sinks below support and it pulls back up... all within the tracks...

something to study and watch...

news will affect the moves also... so, just watch for that also.

[Freakinmarkets]

I like ANLT's 5 day chart looks like this may be the week for a new burst into higher territory!


This is only opinion & no one should buy or sell ANLT or any other stock from reading this post without first doing DD them selves. I post about stocks I have taken positions in. You are the only who can cause yourself loss or gain this is a choice you make!

[dragon52]

Back into the tracks again...

now what? does it move forward or falter?

stay tuned in... the saga continues

[dragon52]

oh well... broke support... time to move on until it heals itself...

glta
