CHANGES IN CONTROL OF REGISTRANT. On August 20, 1999, Silverthorne Production Company (the "Company") completed the first closing of the acquisition of all of the assets of Inter- American Telecommunications Holding Corporation ("ITHC") in exchange for 29,242,953 shares of the Company's Common stock. Concurrently, ITHC purchased 12,602,431 shares of the Company's Common Stock from four shareholders for $190,000 in cash. As a result, ITHC owns 41,845,384 shares of the Company's Common Stock or approximately 83.7% of the shares outstanding. The stock issuances were made pursuant to a Stock Purchase and Asset Acquisition Agreement ("Agreement") between the Company and ITHC. The terms of the Agreement were the result of negotiations between the managements of the Company and ITHC. However, the Board of Directors did not obtain any independent "fairness" opinion or other evaluation regarding the terms of the Agreement, due to the cost of obtaining such opinion or evaluation. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company intends to call a special shareholders' meeting in the very near future for the purpose of (a) approving a one for four reverse split of the Company's outstanding Common Stock; (b) approving a change of the Company's name to a name designated by ITHC; (c) approving an amendment to the Articles of Incorporation to authorize the issuance of preferred stock; (d) electing a slate of directors designated by ITHC; and (e) approving a stock option plan. After the effective date of the reverse stock split, a second closing will be held on the transaction with ITHC, and an additional 4,949,611 post- split shares will be issued to ITHC as final payment for the assets purchased. The foregoing summary of the Agreement is qualified by reference to the complete text of the Agreement, together with the schedules thereto, which is filed as Exhibit 10 hereto, and is incorporated herein by this reference. As a result of the transaction with ITHC and the issuance of the 29,242,952 shares of the Company's Common Stock and the sale of 12,602,431 shares of the Company's Common Stock, following are those persons known by the Company to own 5% or more of the Company's Voting Stock: PERCENT OF NUMBER OF OUTSTANDING NAME AND ADDRESS VOTING SHARES VOTING SHARES ----------------------- ------------- ------------- Inter-American Tele- 41,845,384 83.7% communications Holding Corporation Suite 304 3220 S.

Jackson - Vice President, Secretary and Director ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS. As described in Item 1 of this Report, on August 20, 1999, the Company acquired all of the assets of ITHC in exchange for shares of the Company's Common stock. ITHC, through Cognigen, its e-commerce division, is a major marketer of long-distance telecommunications services. Operating on the Internet via thousands of Web sites, Cognigen markets both domestic and international long- distance telephone service as well as prepaid calling cards through a network of 33,000 independent agents to 150,000 subscribers worldwide. ITHC/Cognigen sells over $3 million per month of discount long-distance service and prepaid calling cards provisioned by several major carriers. Since 1997, the Cognigen division has experienced significant growth in the retail revenue it has generated in the size of its corps of agents, and in the number of subscribers it has acquired and maintained. ITHC/Cognigen's Internet presence operates through proprietary programs that provide for a very high volume of visits with user friendly procedures that allow on-line fulfillment of service applications. Typically, a Cognigen subscriber is able to apply for, and obtain discount long-distance service within a matter of hours rather than days. ITHC/Cognigen's significant rate of growth can be seen by comparing its performance for all of 1998 and for the first six months of 1999. In 1998, based on unaudited results, the Cognigen Division realized net income of $375,252 on retail revenues of $6,186,698. For the first six months of 1999, based on unaudited results, Cognigen realized net income of $302,149 on retail revenues of $9,624,661. ITEM 7.
