15. Commitments and Contingencies Litigation Cross Border and Cross Border s former Chief Executive Officer are party to a lawsuit with a former employee. On May 4, 2011, Clifton M. (Marty) Bloodworth filed a lawsuit in the State District Court of Midland County, Texas, against Doral West Corp. d/b/a Doral Energy Corp. (the predecessor entity of Cross Border) ( Doral Energy ) and Everett Willard Gray II, Cross Border s former Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Bloodworth alleges that Mr. Gray, as Chief Executive Officer of Cross Border, made false representations which induced Mr. Bloodworth to enter into an employment contract that was subsequently breached by Cross Border. The claims that Mr. Bloodworth has alleged are: breach of his employment agreement with Doral Energy, common law fraud, civil conspiracy breach of fiduciary duty, and violation of the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act. Mr. Bloodworth is seeking damages of approximately $280,000. Mr. Gray and the Company deny that Mr. Bloodworth s claims have any merit. Cross Border was previously party to an engagement letter, dated February 7, 2012 (the  Engagement Letter ), with KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc. ( KeyBanc ) pursuant to which KeyBanc was to act as exclusive financial advisor to Cross Border s Board of Directors in connection with a possible  Transaction  (as defined in the Engagement Letter). The Engagement Letter was formally terminated by Cross Border on August 21, 2012. The Engagement Letter provided that KeyBanc would be entitled to a fee upon consummation of a Transaction within a certain period of time following termination of the Engagement Letter. On May 16, 2013, KeyBanc delivered an invoice to Cross Border in the amount of $751,334, representing amounts purportedly owed by Cross Border to KeyBanc as a result of the consummation of a purported Transaction that KeyBanc asserts had been consummated within the required time period and its out-of-pocket expenses in connection therewith. Cross Border disputes that any Transaction was consummated
