ITEM 1.  BUSINESS.

Overview of Business

We are an independent organic growth-oriented energy company engaged in the exploration and production of natural gas and oil through the development of a repeatable, low geological risk, high potential project in the active East Texas oil and gas region. We currently hold interests in properties located in Marion and Cass County, Texas, home to the Rodessa oil field  The field has historically been the domain of small independent operators and is not a legacy field for any major oil company.

Our business strategy, which we have designated the “Cornerstone Project” or “CP”, is to identify and exploit resources in and adjacent to existing or indicated producing areas within the Rodessa field area. We intend to quickly develop and produce reserves at a low cost and will take an aggressive approach to exploiting our contiguous acreage position through utilization of “best in class” drilling completion and seismic technology. We believe that our management team is uniquely familiar with the history and geology of the CP area based on their collective experience in the region as well as through our ownership of a large proprietary database which details the drilling history of the CP area over the previous 29 years. We believe our drilling strategy combined with the application of 3-D seismic imaging technology and the application of new drilling and completion techniques will enable us to find significant gas and oil reserves in the CP area. Our management team will also use its extensive experience and industry relationships to grow our company through new leasing and farm-in opportunities.

Corporate History

We previously operated under the name Maple Mountain Explorations, Inc. (“Maple Mountain”), a Nevada corporation.  On December 12, 2007, Maple Mountain entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange”) with the shareholders of PERC, a Texas corporation, pursuant to which Maple Mountain purchased from PERC’s shareholders all issued and outstanding shares of PERC’s common stock in consideration for the issuance of 17,500,000 shares of Maple Mountain’s common stock. Effective January 23, 2008, we changed our name to Pegasi Energy Resources Corporation.

Principal Operations

We began our leasing and farm-in activities in the Rodessa field area of the East Texas oil and gas basin in 2000. Our initial leasehold purchase was comprised of approximately 1,500 gross acres, which has grown to approximately 21,000 gross acres (approximately 14,000 net acres) as of December 2009. We have an 80% working interest in the acreage. We serve as operator of the Cornerstone Project with a working interest partner, TR Energy Inc. (“TR Energy”), a related party, to develop our acreage position in the Cornerstone Project. TR Energy currently maintains a 20% interest in the Cornerstone Project properties. Since initiating operations in 2000, we have drilled nine productive wells.

We have been aggressively acquiring oil and gas leases to add to our existing lease inventory. Based on detailed log analysis of thousands of wells from our database and information derived from our drilling experience in the area, 109 drilling locations have been identified on our present leased acreage. We are currently focusing on an initial well drilling program.

If we are able to obtain funding, our initial 12-month vertical well drilling program will be to drill horizontal wells in the Bossier formation at the depths around 10,000 feet. We also plan on developing gas reserves in the Cotton Valley, Travis Peak, and Pettit geologic formations at depths ranging from 6,500-10,500 feet.

Other Operations

We conduct our main exploration and production operations through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Pegasi Operating Inc. (“POI”).  We conduct additional operations through two other wholly-owned subsidiaries: (i) TR Rodessa, Inc. ("TR Rodessa"). and (ii) 59 Disposal, Inc. ("59 Disposal").

TR Rodessa owns an 80% undivided interest in and operates a 40-mile natural gas pipeline and gathering system which we currently use to transport our hydrocarbons to market. Excess capacity on this system is used to transport third-party hydrocarbons.

59 Disposal owns an 80% undivided interest in and operates a saltwater disposal facility which disposes saltwater and flow-back waste into subsurface storage.

We intend to continue to use our competitive strengths to advance our corporate strategy. The following are key elements of that strategy:

·
Develop the Cornerstone Project in East Texas through an aggressive drilling program. We will focus our near-term efforts on development drilling on existing acreage.
 
·
Apply management expertise in the CP area and recent developments in drilling and completion technology to identify new drilling opportunities and enhance production. We plan to maximize the present value of our vertical wells by utilizing a shotgun-dual or sawtooth production technique.  The decision to complete in this manner will be determined after an evaluation of the electric logs and other open-hole logs are run in the well. We will also implement the latest drilling, fracturing and completion techniques including shotgun duals to develop our properties as well as horizontal drilling. These horizontal wells will primarily target the Bossier formation and our management anticipates these wells will yield higher hydrocarbon flow rates than our vertical wells.
 
·
Continue to lease underdeveloped acreage in the Cornerstone Project area. We intend to use our proprietary database to help optimize additional drilling locations and to acquire additional acreage.  We intend to target acreage with exploitation and technology upside within the Cornerstone Project area. Most properties in the CP area are held by smaller independent companies that lack the resources to exploit them to the fullest extent. We intend to pursue these opportunities to selectively expand our portfolio of properties. These acreage additions will complement our existing substantial acreage position in the area and provide us with significant additional drilling inventory.
 
·  
Maintain a conservative and flexible financial strategy. We intend to continue focusing on maintaining a low level of corporate overhead expense in addition to continued utilization of outsourcing, when appropriate, to maximize cash flow. We believe this internally-generated cash flow, coupled with reserve-based debt financing when appropriate, will provide the optimal capital structure to fund our future drilling activity.

Well Economics

We plan to initially drill vertical wells to approximately 10,500 feet targeting the lower Cotton Valley formation (primarily gas). The estimated future development cost expected to be incurred relative to the proved reserves in this formation totals approximately $12.4 million. The estimated future development cost is a component of the amounts disclosed in the supplemental oil and gas disclosures required by Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic No. 932, Extractive Activities—Oil and Gas.  The estimated ultimate recovery includes all proved reserves except those that are currently producing. Proved developed and undeveloped oil and gas in this formation include 6.6 billion cubic feet (“bcf”) and 0.16 million barrels of oil (“MMBO”) of proved undeveloped reserves, 1.4 bcf and .03 MMBO of proved behind-pipe reserves, 0.04 bcf and 0.03 MMBO of proved developed non-producing reserves and 0.3 bcf and 0.005 MMBO proved producing reserves.  We emphasize that reserve estimates are inherently imprecise and that estimates of reserves related to new discoveries are more imprecise than those for producing oil and gas properties.  Accordingly, the estimates are expected to change as future information becomes available.  The estimates have been prepared with the assistance of James E. Smith and Associates, an independent petroleum reservoir engineering firm.  The finding and development cost is the ratio of estimated future development costs to the estimated ultimate recovery. We use this ratio, with the commodity price factored in, to determine the viability of drilling a well. The limitation of this measure is that it is based on estimates that are inherently imprecise. The manner in which we have calculated the finding and development costs may differ from how other companies calculate a like measure. We estimate the well economics of drilling a lower Cotton Valley well on our acreage as seen below.

In order to maximize our rate of return on our vertical wells, we plan on implementing a shotgun-dual or sawtooth production technique.  Under this technique, we will drill and complete multiple geologic horizons in a sequential manner as follows:

·
We will initially complete and produce the lower Cotton Valley pay zone (~10,500 ft.);
 
·
After producing the lower Cotton Valley zone for a period of time, we will move uphole to recomplete the upper Cotton Valley (~8,200 ft.), Travis Peak Zone (~7,500 ft.) and/or Pettit Zone (~6,500 ft.); and
 
·
After producing the upper Cotton Valley, Travis Peak and/or Pettit Zones for a period of time, we will co-mingle all zones and produce through the end of the wells’ lives.
 
The estimated future development costs expected to be incurred relative to the proved reserves in the upper Cotton Valley, Travis Peak, Pettit, and co-mingled formations total approximately $7 million.  The estimated future development cost is a component of the amounts disclosed in the supplemental oil and gas disclosures required by FASB ASC Topic No. 932.  The estimated ultimate recovery includes all proved reserves except those that are currently producing.  Proved developed and undeveloped oil and gas in these formations include 12.0 bcf and 0.55 MMBO of proved undeveloped reserves, 5.5 bcf and 0.22 MMBO of proved behind-pipe reserves, 0.4 bcf and 0.004 MMBO of proved developed non-producing reserves and 0.12 bcf and 0.009 MMBO of proved producing reserves.  We emphasize that reserve estimates are inherently imprecise and that estimates of reserves related to new discoveries are more imprecise than those for producing oil and gas properties.  Accordingly, the estimates are expected to change as future information becomes available.  The estimates have been prepared with the assistance of James E. Smith and Associates, an independent petroleum reservoir engineering firm.  The production technique is expected to result in improved well economics as indicated below.

There were no material changes in our proved undeveloped reserves (“PUDs”) during 2009. See “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Note 16 – Subsequent Events” regarding our progress to convert our PUDS to proved developed reserves. We do not have material concentrations of PUDs in individual fields or countries that have remained undeveloped for five years or more after disclosure as PUDs. The technical person in charge of the preparation and oversight of our reserve estimates is James E. Smith, a petroleum engineer who founded and is the president of a multi-disciplined engineering firm that offers a total package of services to the oil and gas industry in East Texas and other areas in the southwestern United States.  He has over 40 years of experience in the oil and gas industry.  A graduate of Texas A&M University, he worked 18 years for the Texas Railroad Commission serving as Field Operations Director, Hearing Examiner, Special Project Engineer in Austin, and as the District Director of both the Kilgore and Abilene District Offices. He is a member of Society of Petroleum Engineers, Society of Petroleum Evaluation Engineers, and SPE Technical Information Group for economics and evaluations. He is a registered petroleum engineer in the state of Texas. He has extensive experience in economic and reservoir evaluation for acquisitions, producing properties and undeveloped prospects.  He also planned and supervised the drilling of wells that we drilled in the East Texas project. He is not an employee of ours and does not have an equity position in our oil and gas development.  We believe his independence allows him to be objective in the preparation and oversight of our reserve estimates.

Title to Properties

As is customary in the oil and gas industry, only a preliminary title examination is conducted at the time we acquire leases or enter into other agreements to obtain control over interests in acreage believed to be suitable for drilling operations. In many instances, our partners have acquired rights to the prospective acreage and we have a contractual right to have our interests in that acreage assigned to us. In some cases, we are in the process of having those interests so assigned. Prior to the commencement of drilling operations, a thorough title examination of the drill site tract is conducted by independent attorneys. Once production from a given well is established, the operator will prepare a division order title report indicating the proper parties and percentages for payment of production proceeds, including royalties. We believe that titles to our leasehold properties are good and defensible in accordance with standards generally acceptable in the oil and gas industry.

Markets and Customers

The revenue generated by our operations is highly dependent upon the prices of, and demand for, natural gas and crude oil. Historically, the markets for natural gas and crude oil have been volatile and are likely to continue to be volatile in the future. The prices we receive for our natural gas and crude oil production are subject to wide fluctuations and depend on numerous factors beyond our control including seasonality, the condition of the United States economy (particularly the manufacturing sector), foreign imports, political conditions in other crude oil-producing and natural gas-producing countries, the actions of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and domestic regulation, legislation, and policies. Decreases in the prices of natural gas and crude oil have had, and could have in the future, an adverse effect on the carrying value of our proved reserves and our revenue, profitability, and cash flow from operations.

We currently have access to several interstate pipelines as well as local end users, however the market for oil and natural gas that we expect to produce depends on factors beyond our control, including the extent of domestic production and imports of oil and natural gas, the proximity and capacity of natural gas pipelines and other transportation facilities, demand for oil and natural gas, the marketing of competitive fuels and the effects of state and federal regulation. The oil and gas industry also competes with other industries in supplying the energy and fuel requirements of industrial, commercial, and individual consumers.

Our oil production is expected to be sold at prices tied to the spot oil markets. Our natural gas production is expected to be sold under short-term contracts and priced based on first of the month index prices or on daily spot market prices.

Regulations

General

Our business is affected by numerous laws and regulations, including energy, environmental, conservation, tax and other laws and regulations relating to the energy industry. Most of our drilling operations will require permit or authorizations from federal, state or local agencies. Changes in any of these laws and regulations or the denial or vacating of permits could have a material adverse effect on our business. In view of the many uncertainties with respect to current and future laws and regulations, including their applicability to us, we cannot predict the overall effect of such laws and regulations on our future operations.

We believe that our operations comply in all material respects with applicable laws and regulations. There are no pending or threatened enforcement actions related to any such laws or regulations. We further believe that the existence and enforcement of such laws and regulations will have no more restrictive an effect on our operations than on other similar companies in the energy industry.

Proposals and proceedings that might affect the oil and gas industry are pending before Congress, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”), state legislatures and commissions and the courts. We cannot predict when or whether any such proposals may become effective. In the past, the natural gas industry has been heavily regulated. There is no assurance that the regulatory approach currently pursued by various agencies will continue indefinitely. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we do not anticipate that compliance with existing federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations will have a material adverse effect upon our capital expenditures, earnings, or competitive position.
 
Federal Regulation of Sales and Transportation of Natural Gas

Historically, the transportation and sale of natural gas and its component parts in interstate commerce has been regulated under several laws enacted by Congress and the regulations passed under these laws by FERC. Our sales of natural gas, including condensate and liquids, may be affected by the availability, terms, and cost of transportation. The price and terms of access to pipeline transportation are subject to extensive federal and state regulation. From 1985 to the present, several major regulatory changes have been implemented by Congress and FERC that affect the economics of natural gas production, transportation and sales. In addition, FERC is continually proposing and implementing new rules and regulations affecting those segments of the natural gas industry, most notably interstate natural gas transmission companies that remain subject to FERC’s jurisdiction. These initiatives may also affect the intrastate transportation of gas under certain circumstances. The stated purpose of many of these regulatory changes is to promote competition among the various sectors of the natural gas industry.

The ultimate impact of the complex rules and regulations issued by FERC cannot be predicted. In addition, many aspects of these regulatory developments have not become final but are still pending judicial and final FERC decisions. We cannot predict what further action FERC will take on these matters. Some of FERC’s more recent proposals may, however, adversely affect the availability and reliability of interruptible transportation service on interstate pipelines. We do not believe that we will be affected by any action taken materially differently than other natural gas producers, gatherers and marketers with whom we compete.

State Regulation

Our operations are also subject to regulation at the state and in some cases, county, municipal and local governmental levels. Such regulation includes requiring permits for the drilling of wells, maintaining bonding requirements in order to drill or operate wells and regulating the location of wells, the method of drilling and casing wells, the surface use and restoration of properties upon which wells are drilled, the plugging and abandonment of wells, and the disposal of fluids used and produced in connection with operations. Our operations are also subject to various conservation laws and regulations pertaining to the size of drilling and spacing units or proration units and the unitization or pooling of oil and gas properties.

State regulation of gathering facilities generally includes various safety, environmental and, in some circumstances, nondiscriminatory take requirements, but, except as noted above, does not generally entail rate regulation. These regulatory burdens may affect profitability, but we are unable to predict the future cost or impact of complying with such regulations.
 
Environmental Matters

Our operations are subject to numerous federal, state and local laws and regulations controlling the generation, use, storage, and discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise relating to the protection of the environment. These laws and regulations may require the acquisition of a permit or other authorization before construction or drilling commences; restrict the types, quantities, and concentrations of various substances that can be released into the environment in connection with drilling, production, and natural gas processing activities; suspend, limit or prohibit construction, drilling and other activities in certain lands lying within wilderness, wetlands, and other protected areas; require remedial measures to mitigate pollution from historical and on-going operations such as use of pits and plugging of abandoned wells; restrict injection of liquids into subsurface strata that may contaminate groundwater; and impose substantial liabilities for pollution resulting from our operations. Environmental permits required for our operations may be subject to revocation, modification, and renewal by issuing authorities. Governmental authorities have the power to enforce compliance with their regulations and permits, and violations are subject to injunction, civil fines, and even criminal penalties. We believe that we are in substantial compliance with current environmental laws and regulations, and that we will not be required to make material capital expenditures to comply with existing laws.

 Nevertheless, changes in existing environmental laws and regulations or interpretations thereof could have a significant impact on us as well as the natural gas and crude oil industry in general, and thus we are unable to predict the ultimate cost and effects of future changes in environmental laws and regulations.

We are not currently involved in any administrative, judicial or legal proceedings arising under domestic or foreign federal, state, or local environmental protection laws and regulations, or under federal or state common law, which would have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations. Moreover, we maintain insurance against costs of clean-up operations, but we are not fully insured against all such risks. A serious incident of pollution may result in the suspension or cessation of operations in the affected area.
 
Superfund

The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act ("CERCLA"), also known as "Superfund," and comparable state statutes impose strict, joint, and several liability on certain classes of persons who are considered to have contributed to the release of a “hazardous substance" into the environment. These persons include the owner or operator of a disposal site or sites where a release occurred and companies that generated, disposed, or arranged for the disposal of the hazardous substances released at the site. Under CERCLA, such persons or companies may be retroactively liable for the costs of cleaning up the hazardous substances that have been released into the environment and for damages to natural resources, and it is common for neighboring land owners and other third parties to file claims for personal injury, property damage, and recovery of response costs allegedly caused by the hazardous substances released into the environment. In the course of our operations, we may generate waste that may fall within CERCLA's definition of a "hazardous substance." We may be jointly and severally liable under CERCLA or comparable state statutes for all or part of the costs required to clean up sites at which these wastes have been disposed. Although CERCLA currently contains a "petroleum exclusion" from the definition of “hazardous,” state laws affecting our operations impose cleanup liability relating to petroleum related products, including crude oil cleanups. In addition, although RCRA regulations currently classify certain wastes which are uniquely associated with field operations as "non-hazardous," such exploration, development and production wastes could be reclassified by regulation as hazardous wastes thereby administratively making such wastes subject to more stringent handling and disposal requirements.

We currently own or lease, and have in the past owned or leased, numerous properties that for many years have been used for the exploration and production of natural gas and crude oil. Although we utilized standard industry operating and disposal practices at the time, hydrocarbons or other wastes may have been disposed of or released on or under the properties we owned or leased or on or under other locations where such wastes have been taken for disposal. In addition, many of these properties have been operated by third parties whose treatment and disposal or release of hydrocarbons or other wastes was not under our control. These properties and the wastes disposed thereon may be subject to CERCLA, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976, as amended (“RCRA”), and analogous state laws. Under these laws, we could be required to remove or remediate previously disposed wastes, including wastes disposed or released by prior owners or operators; to clean up contaminated property, including contaminated groundwater; or to perform remedial operations to prevent future contamination.
 
Oil Pollution Act of 1990

United States federal regulations also require certain owners and operators of facilities that store or otherwise handle crude oil, such as us, to prepare and implement spill prevention, control and countermeasure plans and spill response plans relating to possible discharge of crude oil into surface waters. The federal Oil Pollution Act ("OPA") contains numerous requirements relating to prevention of, reporting of, and response to crude oil spills into waters of the United States. For facilities that may affect state waters, OPA requires an operator to demonstrate $10 million in financial responsibility. State laws mandate crude oil cleanup programs with respect to contaminated soil. A failure to comply with OPA's requirements or inadequate cooperation during a spill response action may subject a responsible party to civil or criminal enforcement actions. We are not aware of any action or event that would subject us to liability under OPA, and we believe that compliance with OPA's financial responsibility and other operating requirements will not have a material adverse effect on us.

U.S. Environmental Protection Agency

U.S. Environmental Protection Agency regulations address the disposal of crude oil and natural gas operational wastes under three federal acts more fully discussed in the paragraphs that follow. The RCRA provides a framework for the safe disposal of discarded materials and the management of solid and hazardous wastes. The direct disposal of operational wastes into offshore waters is also limited under the authority of the Clean Water Act. When injected underground, crude oil and natural gas wastes are regulated by the Underground Injection Control program under the Safe Drinking Water Act. If wastes are classified as hazardous, they must be properly transported, using a uniform hazardous waste manifest, documented, and disposed of at an approved hazardous waste facility. We have coverage under the applicable Clean Water Act permitting requirements for discharges associated with exploration and development activities.

Resource Conservation Recovery Act

RCRA is the principal federal statute governing the treatment, storage and disposal of hazardous wastes. RCRA imposes stringent operating requirements, and liability for failure to meet such requirements, on a person who is either a "generator" or "transporter" of hazardous waste or an "owner" or "operator" of a hazardous waste treatment, storage or disposal facility. At present, RCRA includes a statutory exemption that allows most crude oil and natural gas exploration and production waste to be classified as nonhazardous waste. A similar exemption is contained in many of the state counterparts to RCRA. As a result, we are not required to comply with a substantial portion of RCRA's requirements because our operations generate minimal quantities of hazardous wastes. At various times in the past, proposals have been made to amend RCRA to rescind the exemption that excludes crude oil and natural gas exploration and production wastes from regulation as hazardous waste. Repeal or modification of the exemption by administrative, legislative or judicial process, or modification of similar exemptions in applicable state statutes, would increase the volume of hazardous waste we are required to manage and dispose of and would cause us to incur increased operating expenses.

Clean Water Act

The Clean Water Act imposes restrictions and controls on the discharge of produced waters and other wastes into navigable waters. Permits must be obtained to discharge pollutants into state and federal waters and to conduct construction activities in waters and wetlands. Certain state regulations and the general permits issued under the Federal National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System program prohibit the discharge of produced waters and sand, drilling fluids, drill cuttings and certain other substances related to the crude oil and natural gas industry into certain coastal and offshore waters. Further, the Environmental Protection Agency has adopted regulations requiring certain crude oil and natural gas exploration and production facilities to obtain permits for storm water discharges. Costs may be associated with the treatment of wastewater or developing and implementing storm water pollution prevention plans. The Clean Water Act and comparable state statutes provide for civil, criminal and administrative penalties for unauthorized discharges for crude oil and other pollutants and impose liability on parties responsible for those discharges for the costs of cleaning up any environmental damage caused by the release and for natural resource damages resulting from the release. We believe that our operations comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Clean Water Act and state statutes enacted to control water pollution.

Safe Drinking Water Act

Underground injection is the subsurface placement of fluid through a well, such as the reinjection of brine produced and separated from crude oil and natural gas production. The Safe Drinking Water Act of 1974, as amended establishes a regulatory framework for underground injection, with the main goal being the protection of usable aquifers. The primary objective of injection well operating requirements is to ensure the mechanical integrity of the injection apparatus and to prevent migration of fluids from the injection zone into underground sources of drinking water. Hazardous-waste injection well operations are strictly controlled, and certain wastes, absent an exemption, cannot be injected into underground injection control wells. In Texas, no underground injection may take place except as authorized by permit or rule. We currently own and operate various underground injection wells. Failure to abide by our permits could subject us to civil and/or criminal enforcement. We believe that we are in compliance in all material respects with the requirements of applicable state underground injection control programs and our permits.
 
Air Pollution Control

The Clean Air Act and state air pollution laws adopted to fulfill its mandate provide a framework for national, state and local efforts to protect air quality. Our operations utilize equipment that emits air pollutants which may be subject to federal and state air pollution control laws. These laws require utilization of air emissions abatement equipment to achieve prescribed emissions limitations and ambient air quality standards, as well as operating permits for existing equipment and construction permits for new and modified equipment. We believe that we are in compliance in all material respects with the requirements of applicable federal and state air pollution control laws.

Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials ("NORM")

NORM are materials not covered by the Atomic Energy Act, whose radioactivity is enhanced by technological processing such as mineral extraction or processing through exploration and production conducted by the crude oil and natural gas industry. NORM wastes are regulated under the RCRA framework, but primary responsibility for NORM regulation has been a state function. Standards have been developed for worker protection; treatment, storage and disposal of NORM waste; management of waste piles, containers and tanks; and limitations upon the release of NORM contaminated land for unrestricted use. We believe that our operations are in material compliance with all applicable NORM standards established by the State of Texas.

Abandonment Costs

All of our crude oil and natural gas wells will require proper plugging and abandonment when they are no longer producing. We post bonds with most regulatory agencies to ensure compliance with our plugging responsibility. Plugging and abandonment operations and associated reclamation of the surface production site are important components of our environmental management system. We plan accordingly for the ultimate disposition of properties that are no longer producing.

Competition

We operate in a highly competitive environment. The principal resources necessary for the exploration and production of natural gas and crude oil are leasehold prospects under which natural gas and crude oil reserves may be discovered, drilling rigs and related equipment to explore for such reserves and knowledgeable personnel to conduct all phases of natural gas and crude oil operations. We must compete for such resources with both major natural gas and crude oil companies and independent operators. Many of these competitors have financial and other resources substantially greater than ours. Although we believe our current operating and financial resources are adequate to preclude any significant disruption of our operations in the immediate future, we cannot assure you that such materials and resources will be available to us.

Employees

As of March 1, 2010, we had seven full-time employees. None of our employees are represented by a labor union, and we consider our employee relations to be excellent. We seek to use contract workers and anticipate maintaining a small full-time employee base.  We have a staff services agreement with Odyssey One Source, Inc. on a month-to-month basis whereby we jointly employ personnel and share employment responsibilities for the staff.

ITEM 1A.  RISK FACTORS.

You should carefully consider the following risk factors and all other information contained herein as well as the information included in this Annual Report in evaluating our business and prospects. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties, other than those we describe below, that are not presently known to us or that we currently believe are immaterial, may also impair our business operations. If any of the following risks occur, our business and consolidated financial results could be harmed. You should refer to the other information contained in this Annual Report, including our consolidated financial statements and the related notes.

Risks Related to Our Business

We have a history of losses which may continue, which may negatively impact our ability to achieve our business objectives.

We incurred net losses of $2,811,950 and $684,923 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. We cannot assure you that we can achieve or sustain profitability on a quarterly or annual basis in the future. Our operations are subject to the risks and competition inherent in the establishment of a business enterprise. There can be no assurance that future operations will be profitable. Revenues and profits, if any, will depend upon various factors, including whether we will be able to continue expansion of our revenue. We may not achieve our business objectives and the failure to achieve such goals would have an adverse impact on us.

We have a limited operating history and if we are not successful in continuing to grow our business, then we may have to scale back or even cease our ongoing business operations.

We have been engaged in the business of oil and gas exploration and development for only a short amount of time, and have limited current oil or natural gas operations.  The business of acquiring, exploring for, developing and producing oil and natural gas reserves is inherently risky.  As an oil and gas acquisition, exploration and development company with limited operating history, it is difficult for potential investors to evaluate our business.  Our proposed operations are therefore subject to all of the risks inherent in light of the expenses, difficulties, complications and delays frequently encountered in connection with the formation of any new business, as well as those risks that are specific to the oil and gas industry.  Investors should evaluate us in light of the delays, expenses, problems and uncertainties frequently encountered by companies developing markets for new products, services and technologies.  If our business plan is not successful, and we are not able to operate profitably, investors may lose some or all of their investment in our company.
 
Our lack of diversification will increase the risk of an investment in PERC, and our consolidated financial condition and results of operations may deteriorate if we fail to diversify.
 
Our business focus is on the oil and gas industry in a limited number of properties, initially in Texas.  Larger companies have the ability to manage their risk by geographic diversification.  However, we will lack diversification, in terms of both the nature and geographic scope of our business.  As a result, we will likely be impacted more acutely by factors affecting our industry or the regions in which we operate than we would if our business were more diversified, enhancing our risk profile.  If we cannot diversify our operations, our financial condition and results of operations could deteriorate.

Because we are small and do not have much capital, we may have to limit our exploration activity which may result in a loss of your investment. 

Because we are small and do not have much capital, we must limit our exploration activity. As such we may not be able to complete an exploration program that is as thorough as we would like. In that event, existing reserves may go undiscovered. Without finding reserves, we cannot generate revenues and you will lose your investment.

Strategic relationships upon which we may rely are subject to change, which may diminish our ability to conduct our operations.
 
Our ability to successfully acquire additional properties, to discover reserves, to participate in drilling opportunities and to identify and enter into commercial arrangements with customers will depend on developing and maintaining close working relationships with industry participants and on our ability to select and evaluate suitable properties and to consummate transactions in a highly competitive environment. These realities are subject to change and may impair our ability to grow.
 
 
12

 
 
To develop our business, we will endeavor to use the business relationships of our management to enter into strategic relationships, which may take the form of joint ventures with other private parties and contractual arrangements with other oil and gas companies, including those that supply equipment and other resources that we will use in our business.  We may not be able to establish these strategic relationships, or if established, we may not be able to maintain them.  In addition, the dynamics of our relationships with strategic partners may require us to incur expenses or undertake activities we would not otherwise be inclined to in order to fulfill our obligations to these partners or maintain our relationships.  If our strategic relationships are not established or maintained, our business prospects may be limited, which could diminish our ability to conduct our operations.

Competition in obtaining rights to explore and develop oil and gas reserves and to market our production may impair our business.
 
The oil and gas industry is highly competitive.  Other oil and gas companies may seek to acquire oil and gas leases and other properties and services we will need to operate our business in the areas in which we expect to operate.   Additionally, other companies engaged in our line of business may compete with us from time to time in obtaining capital from investors.  Competitors include larger companies, which, in particular, may have access to greater resources, may be more successful in the recruitment and retention of qualified employees and may conduct their own refining and petroleum marketing operations, which may give them a competitive advantage.  In addition, actual or potential competitors may be strengthened through the acquisition of additional assets and interests.  If we are unable to compete effectively or adequately respond to competitive pressures, this inability may materially adversely affect our consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

If we are unable to obtain additional funding our business operations will be harmed and if we do obtain additional financing our then existing shareholders may suffer substantial dilution.
 
We expect that our current capital and our other existing resources will be sufficient only to provide a limited amount of working capital, and the revenues generated from our properties in Texas alone will not alone be sufficient to fund our operations or planned growth.  We anticipate that we will require up to approximately $1.65 million for our anticipated operations for the next twelve months, depending on revenues.  We believe that our currently available funds can sustain our current level of operations for approximately one month. We will require additional capital to continue to operate our business beyond the initial phase of our current properties, and to further expand our exploration and development programs.  We may be unable to obtain additional capital required.  Furthermore, inability to maintain capital may damage our reputation and credibility with industry participants.  Our inability to raise additional funds when required may have a negative impact on our consolidated results of operations and financial condition.
 
Future acquisitions and future exploration, development, production, leasing activities and marketing activities, as well as our administrative requirements (such as salaries, insurance expenses and general overhead expenses, as well as legal compliance costs and accounting expenses) will require a substantial amount of additional capital and cash flow.
 
We plan to pursue sources of additional capital through various financing transactions or arrangements, including joint venturing of projects, debt financing, equity financing or other means.  We may not be successful in locating suitable financing transactions in the time period required or at all, and we may not obtain the capital we require by other means.   
 
Any additional capital raised through the sale of equity may dilute your ownership percentage.  This could also result in a decrease in the fair market value of our equity securities because our assets would be owned by a larger pool of outstanding equity.  The terms of securities we issue in future capital transactions may be more favorable to our new investors, and may include preferences, superior voting rights and the issuance of warrants or other derivative securities, and issuances of incentive awards under equity employee incentive plans, which may have a further dilutive effect.
 
Our ability to obtain needed financing may be impaired by such factors as the capital markets (both generally and in the oil and gas industry in particular), our status as a new enterprise without a significant demonstrated operating history, the location of our oil and natural gas properties and prices of oil and natural gas on the commodities markets (which will impact the amount of asset-based financing available to us) and/or the loss of key management.  Further, if oil and/or natural gas prices on the commodities markets decrease, then our revenues will likely decrease, and such decreased revenues may increase our requirements for capital.  If the amount of capital we are able to raise from financing activities, together with our revenues from operations, is not sufficient to satisfy our capital needs (even to the extent that we reduce our operations), we may be required to cease our operations.
 
We may incur substantial costs in pursuing future capital financing, including investment banking fees, legal fees, accounting fees, securities law compliance fees, printing and distribution expenses and other costs.  We may also be required to recognize non-cash expenses in connection with certain securities we may issue, such as convertible notes and warrants, which may adversely impact our consolidated financial results.
 
 
13

 
 
We may not be able to effectively manage our growth, which may harm our profitability.

Our strategy envisions expanding our business.  If we fail to effectively manage our growth, our consolidated financial results could be adversely affected.  Growth may place a strain on our management systems and resources.  We must continue to refine and expand our business development capabilities, our systems and processes and our access to financing sources.  As we grow, we must continue to hire, train, supervise and manage new employees.  We cannot assure you that we will be able to:
 
·
meet our capital needs;
·
expand our systems effectively or efficiently or in a timely manner;
·
allocate our human resources optimally;
·
identify and hire qualified employees or retain valued employees; or
·
incorporate effectively the components of any business that we may acquire in our effort to achieve growth.

If we are unable to manage our growth, our operations and our consolidated financial results could be adversely affected by inefficiency, which could diminish our profitability.

If we are unable to retain the services of Messrs. Neufeld, Sudderth or Lindermanis, or if we are unable to successfully recruit qualified managerial and field personnel having experience in oil and gas exploration, we may not be able to continue our operations.

Our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of Mr. Michael Neufeld, our President and Chairman, Mr. William Sudderth, our Executive Vice President or Mr. Richard Lindermanis, our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.  The loss of the services of Messrs. Neufeld, Sudderth or Lindermanis could have a material adverse effect on our growth, revenues, and prospective business. We do not have key-man insurance on the lives of Messrs. Neufeld, Sudderth or Lindermanis. In addition, in order to successfully implement and manage our business plan, we will be dependent upon, among other things, successfully recruiting qualified managerial and field personnel having experience in the oil and gas exploration business. Competition for qualified individuals is intense. There can be no assurance that we will be able to find, attract and retain existing employees or that we will be able to find, attract and retain qualified personnel on acceptable terms.

Our management team does not have extensive experience in public company matters, which could impair our ability to comply with legal and regulatory requirements.

Our management team has had limited public company management experience or responsibilities.  This could impair our ability to comply with legal and regulatory requirements such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and applicable federal securities laws including filing required reports and other information required on a timely basis.  There can be no assurance that our management will be able to implement and affect programs and policies in an effective and timely manner that adequately respond to increased legal, regulatory compliance and reporting requirements imposed by such laws and regulations.  Our failure to comply with such laws and regulations could lead to the imposition of fines and penalties and further result in the deterioration of our business.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR INDUSTRY
 
Our exploration for oil and gas is risky and may not be commercially successful, and the 3D seismic data and other advanced technologies we use cannot eliminate exploration risk, which could impair our ability to generate revenues from our operations.
 
Our future success will depend on the success of our exploratory drilling program.  Oil and gas exploration involves a high degree of risk.  These risks are more acute in the early stages of exploration.  Our expenditures on exploration may not result in new discoveries of oil or natural gas in commercially viable quantities.  It is difficult to project the costs of implementing an exploratory drilling program due to the inherent uncertainties of drilling in unknown formations, the costs associated with encountering various drilling conditions, such as over-pressured zones and tools lost in the hole, and changes in drilling plans and locations as a result of prior exploratory wells or additional seismic data and interpretations thereof.
 
Even when used and properly interpreted, 3D seismic data and visualization techniques only assist geoscientists in identifying subsurface structures and hydrocarbon indicators.  They do not allow the interpreter to know conclusively if hydrocarbons are present or economically producible.  In addition, the use of 3D seismic data becomes less reliable when used at increasing depths.  We could incur losses as a result of expenditures on unsuccessful wells.  If exploration costs exceed our estimates, or if our exploration efforts do not produce results which meet our expectations, our exploration efforts may not be commercially successful, which could adversely impact our ability to generate revenues from operations.
 
We may not be able to develop oil and gas reserves on an economically viable basis and our reserves and production may decline as a result.
 
To the extent that we succeed in discovering oil and/or natural gas reserves, we cannot assure that these reserves will be capable of production levels we project or in sufficient quantities to be commercially viable.  On a long-term basis, our viability depends on our ability to find or acquire, develop and commercially produce additional oil and natural gas reserves.  Without the addition of reserves through acquisition, exploration or development activities, our reserves and production will decline over time as reserves are produced.  Our future reserves will depend not only on our ability to develop then-existing properties, but also on our ability to identify and acquire additional suitable producing properties or prospects, to find markets for the oil and natural gas we develop and to effectively distribute our production into our markets. 
 
Future oil and gas exploration may involve unprofitable efforts, not only from dry wells, but from wells that are productive but do not produce sufficient net revenues to return a profit after drilling, operating and other costs.  Completion of a well does not assure a profit on the investment or recovery of drilling, completion and operating costs.  In addition, drilling hazards or environmental damage could greatly increase the cost of operations, and various field operating conditions may adversely affect the production from successful wells.  These conditions include delays in obtaining governmental approvals or consents, shut-downs of connected wells resulting from extreme weather conditions, problems in storage and distribution and adverse geological and mechanical conditions.  While we will endeavor to effectively manage these conditions, we cannot be assured of doing so optimally, and we will not be able to eliminate them completely in any case.  Therefore, these conditions could diminish our revenue and cash flow levels and result in the impairment of our oil and natural gas interests.

Estimates of oil and natural gas reserves that we make may be inaccurate and our actual revenues may be lower than our financial projections.
 
We will make estimates of oil and natural gas reserves, upon which we will base our financial projections.  We will make these reserve estimates using various assumptions, including assumptions as to oil and natural gas prices, drilling and operating expenses, capital expenditures, taxes and availability of funds.  Some of these assumptions are inherently subjective, and the accuracy of our reserve estimates relies in part on the ability of our management team, engineers and other advisors to make accurate assumptions.  Economic factors beyond our control, such as interest rates, will also impact the value of our reserves.  The process of estimating oil and natural gas reserves is complex, and will require us to use significant decisions and assumptions in the evaluation of available geological, geophysical, engineering and economic data for each property.  As a result, our reserve estimates will be inherently imprecise.  Actual future production, oil and natural gas prices, revenues, taxes, development expenditures, operating expenses and quantities of recoverable oil and natural gas reserves may vary substantially from those we estimate.  If actual production results vary substantially from our reserve estimates, this could materially reduce our revenues and result in the impairment of our oil and natural gas interests.
 
 
15

 
 
Drilling new wells could result in new liabilities, which could endanger our interests in our properties and assets.
 
There are risks associated with the drilling of oil and natural gas wells, including encountering unexpected formations or pressures, premature declines of reservoirs, blow-outs, craterings, sour gas releases, fires and spills, among others.  The occurrence of any of these events could significantly reduce our revenues or cause substantial losses, impairing our future consolidated operating results.  We may become subject to liability for pollution, blow-outs or other hazards.  We intend to obtain insurance with respect to these hazards; however, such insurance has limitations on liability that may not be sufficient to cover the full extent of such liabilities.  The payment of such liabilities could reduce the funds available to us or could, in an extreme case, result in a total loss of our properties and assets.  Moreover, we may not be able to maintain adequate insurance in the future at rates that are considered reasonable.  Oil and natural gas production operations are also subject to all the risks typically associated with such operations, including premature decline of reservoirs and the invasion of water into producing formations.
 
Decommissioning costs are unknown and may be substantial.  Unplanned costs could divert resources from other projects.
 
We may become responsible for costs associated with abandoning and reclaiming wells, facilities and pipelines which we use for production of oil and natural gas reserves.  Abandonment and reclamation of these facilities and the costs associated therewith is often referred to as “decommissioning.”  We have not yet determined whether we will establish a cash reserve account for these potential costs in respect of any of our properties or facilities, or if we will satisfy such costs of decommissioning from the proceeds of production in accordance with the practice generally employed in onshore and offshore oilfield operations.  If decommissioning is required before economic depletion of our properties or if our estimates of the costs of decommissioning exceed the value of the reserves remaining at any particular time to cover such decommissioning costs, we may have to draw on funds from other sources to satisfy such costs.  The use of other funds to satisfy such decommissioning costs could impair our ability to focus capital investment in other areas of our business.
 
Our inability to obtain necessary facilities could hamper our operations.
 
Oil and gas exploration and development activities are dependent on the availability of drilling and related equipment, transportation, power and technical support in the particular areas where these activities will be conducted, and our access to these facilities may be limited.  To the extent that we conduct our activities in remote areas, needed facilities may not be proximate to our operations, which will increase our expenses.  Demand for such limited equipment and other facilities or access restrictions may affect the availability of such equipment to us and may delay exploration and development activities.  The quality and reliability of necessary facilities may also be unpredictable and we may be required to make efforts to standardize our facilities, which may entail unanticipated costs and delays.  Shortages and/or the unavailability of necessary equipment or other facilities will impair our activities, either by delaying our activities, increasing our costs or otherwise.

Prices and markets for oil and natural gas are unpredictable and tend to fluctuate significantly, which could reduce profitability, growth and the value of our business.
 
Oil and natural gas are commodities whose prices are determined based on world demand, supply and other factors, all of which are beyond our control.  World prices for oil and natural gas have fluctuated widely in recent years.  The average price per barrel was $72.34 in 2007, $99.67 in 2008, and $61.95 in 2009, and the average wellhead price per thousand cubic feet of natural gas was $6.25 in 2007, $7.96 in 2008, and $3.71 in 2009 (source: U.S. Energy Information Administration).We expect that prices will continue to fluctuate in the future.  Price fluctuations will have a significant impact upon our revenue, the return from our reserves and on our financial condition generally.  Price fluctuations for oil and natural gas commodities may also impact the investment market for companies engaged in the oil and gas industry.  Decreases in the prices of oil and natural gas may have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, the future results of our operations and quantities of reserves recoverable on an economic basis.

 
16

 
 
Increases in our operating expenses will impact our operating results and financial condition.
 
Exploration, development, production, marketing (including distribution costs) and regulatory compliance costs (including taxes) will substantially impact the net revenues and profits we derive from the oil and natural gas that we produce.  These costs are subject to fluctuations and variation in different locales in which we will operate, and we may not be able to predict or control these costs.  If these costs exceed our expectations, this may adversely affect our consolidated results of operations.  In addition, we may not be able to earn net revenue at our predicted levels, which may impact our ability to satisfy our obligations.
 
Penalties we may incur could impair our business.

Failure to comply with government regulations could subject us to civil and criminal penalties, could require us to forfeit property rights, and may affect the value of our assets.  We may also be required to take corrective actions, such as installing additional equipment or taking other actions, each of which could require us to make substantial capital expenditures.  We could also be required to indemnify our employees in connection with any expenses or liabilities that they may incur individually in connection with regulatory action against them.  As a result, our future business prospects could deteriorate due to regulatory constraints, and our profitability could be impaired by our obligation to provide such indemnification to our employees.

Oil and gas operations are subject to comprehensive regulation which may cause substantial delays or require capital outlays in excess of those anticipated causing an adverse effect on our company.

Oil and gas operations are subject to federal, state, and local laws relating to the protection of the environment, including laws regulating the removal of natural resources from the ground and the discharge of materials into the environment. Oil and gas operations are also subject to federal, state, and local laws and regulations which seek to maintain health and safety standards by regulating the design and use of drilling methods and equipment. Various permits from government bodies are required for drilling operations to be conducted; no assurance can be given that such permits will be received. Environmental standards imposed by federal, provincial, or local authorities may be changed and any such changes may have material adverse effects on our activities. Moreover, compliance with such laws may cause substantial delays or require capital outlays in excess of those anticipated, thus causing an adverse effect on us. Additionally, we may be subject to liability for pollution or other environmental damages. We generally maintain insurance coverage customary to the industry; however, we are not fully insured against all possible environmental risks. To date we have not been required to spend any material amount on compliance with environmental regulations. However, we may be required to do so in the future and this may affect our ability to expand or maintain our operations.

Exploration activities are subject to certain environmental regulations which may prevent or delay the commencement or continuance of our operations.
 
In general, our exploration activities are subject to certain federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to environmental quality and pollution control. Such laws and regulations increase the costs of these activities and may prevent or delay the commencement or continuance of a given operation. Compliance with these laws and regulations has not had a material effect on our consolidated results of operations or financial condition to date. Specifically, we are subject to legislation regarding emissions into the environment, water discharges and storage and disposition of hazardous wastes. In addition, legislation has been enacted which requires well and facility sites to be abandoned and reclaimed to the satisfaction of state authorities. However, such laws and regulations are frequently changed and we are unable to predict the ultimate cost of compliance. Generally, environmental requirements do not appear to affect us any differently or to any greater or lesser extent than other companies in the industry.

We believe that our operations comply, in all material respects, with all applicable environmental regulations. Our operating partners generally maintain insurance coverage customary to the industry; however, we are not fully insured against all possible environmental risks.

Exploratory drilling involves many risks and we may become liable for pollution or other liabilities which may have an adverse effect on our consolidated financial position.
 
Drilling operations generally involve a high degree of risk. Hazards such as unusual or unexpected geological formations, power outages, labor disruptions, blow-outs, sour gas leakage, fire, inability to obtain suitable or adequate machinery, equipment or labor, and other risks are involved. We may become subject to liability for pollution or hazards against which we cannot adequately insure or for which we may elect not to insure. Incurring any such liability may have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position and operations.

Any change in government regulation and/or administrative practices may have a negative impact on our ability to operate and our profitability.

The laws, regulations, policies or current administrative practices of any government body, organization or regulatory agency in the United States or any other jurisdiction, may be changed, applied or interpreted in a manner which will fundamentally alter the ability of our Company to carry on our business.

The actions, policies or regulations, or changes thereto, of any government body or regulatory agency, or other special interest groups, may have a detrimental effect on us. Any or all of these situations may have a negative impact on our ability to operate and/or our profitably.

Our insurance may be inadequate to cover liabilities we may incur.

Our involvement in the exploration for and development of oil and gas properties may result in our becoming subject to liability for pollution, blow-outs, property damage, personal injury or other hazards.  Although we will obtain insurance in accordance with industry standards to address such risks, such insurance has limitations on liability that may not be sufficient to cover the full extent of such liabilities.  In addition, such risks may not, in all circumstances, be insurable or, in certain circumstances, we may choose not to obtain insurance to protect against specific risks due to the high premiums associated with such insurance or for other reasons.  The payment of such uninsured liabilities would reduce the funds available to us.  If we suffer a significant event or occurrence that is not fully insured, or if the insurer of such event is not solvent, we could be required to divert funds from capital investment or other uses towards covering our liability for such events.

Our business will suffer if we cannot obtain or maintain the necessary licenses.

Our operations will require licenses, permits and in some cases renewals of licenses and permits from various governmental authorities.  Our ability to obtain, sustain or renew such licenses and permits on acceptable terms is subject to change in regulations and policies and to the discretion of the applicable governments, among other factors.  Our inability to obtain, or our loss of or denial of extension, to any of these licenses or permits could hamper our ability to produce revenues from our operations.

Challenges to our properties may impact our consolidated financial condition.
 
Title to oil and gas interests is often not capable of conclusive determination without incurring substantial expense.  While we intend to make appropriate inquiries into the title of properties and other development rights we acquire, title defects may exist.  In addition, we may be unable to obtain adequate insurance for title defects, on a commercially reasonable basis or at all.  If title defects do exist, it is possible that we may lose all or a portion of our right, title and interests in and to the properties to which the title defects relate.  If our property rights are reduced, our ability to conduct our exploration, development and production activities may be impaired.
 
We will rely on technology to conduct our business and our technology could become ineffective or obsolete.

We rely on technology, including geographic and seismic analysis techniques and economic models, to develop our reserve estimates and to guide our exploration, development and production activities.  We will be required to continually enhance and update our technology to maintain its efficacy and to avoid obsolescence.  The costs of doing so may be substantial, and may be higher than the costs that we anticipate for technology maintenance and development.  If we are unable to maintain the efficacy of our technology, our ability to manage our business and to compete may be impaired.  Further, even if we are able to maintain technical effectiveness, our technology may not be the most efficient means of reaching our objectives, in which case we may incur higher operating costs than we would were our technology more efficient.

It is anticipated that there will be a limited trading market for the Company's common stock on the National Association of Securities Dealers' Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”).  The lack of an active market may impair your ability to sell your shares at the time you wish to sell them or at a price that you consider reasonable.  The lack of an active market may also reduce the fair market value of your shares.  An inactive market may also impair our ability to raise capital by selling shares of capital stock and may impair our ability to acquire other companies or assets by using common stock as consideration.
 
You may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our common stock.

The common stock may not be actively traded, and the bid and asked prices for our common stock on the OTCBB may fluctuate widely.  As a result, investors may find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our securities.  This severely limits the liquidity of the common stock, and would likely reduce the market price of our common stock and hamper our ability to raise additional capital.

The market price of our common stock may, and is likely to continue to be, highly volatile and subject to wide fluctuations.

The market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to a number of factors that are beyond our control, including:
 
dilution caused by our issuance of additional shares of common stock and other forms of equity securities in connection with future capital financings to fund our operations and growth, to attract and retain valuable personnel and in connection with future strategic partnerships with other companies;
announcements of new acquisitions, reserve discoveries or other business initiatives by our competitors;
our ability to take advantage of new acquisitions, reserve discoveries or other business initiatives;
fluctuations in revenue from our oil and gas business as new reserves come to market;
changes in the market for oil and natural gas commodities and/or in the capital markets generally;
changes in the demand for oil and natural gas, including changes resulting from the introduction or expansion  of alternative fuels;
quarterly variations in our revenues and operating expenses;
changes in the valuation of similarly situated companies, both in our industry and in other industries;
changes in analysts’ estimates affecting our company, our competitors and/or our industry;
changes in the accounting methods used in or otherwise affecting our industry;
additions and departures of key personnel;
announcements by relevant governments pertaining to incentives for alternative energy development programs;
fluctuations in interest rates and the availability of capital in the capital markets; and
significant sales of our common stock, including sales by the investors following registration of the shares of common stock issued in our initial offering in December 2007, and/or future investors in future offerings we expect to make to raise additional capital.

These and other factors are largely beyond our control, and the impact of these risks, singly or in the aggregate, may result in material adverse changes to the market price of our common stock and/or our consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

We do not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.

We do not intend to declare dividends for the foreseeable future, as we anticipate that we will reinvest any future earnings in the development and growth of our business.  Therefore, investors will not receive any funds unless they sell their common stock, and stockholders may be unable to sell their shares on favorable terms or at all.  Investors cannot be assured of a positive return on investment or that they will not lose the entire amount of their investment in the common stock.

Our officers, directors and principal shareholders own a controlling interest in our voting stock and investors will not have any voice in our management.

Our officers, directors and principal shareholders in the aggregate, beneficially own or control the votes of approximately 59.19% of our outstanding common stock. As a result, these stockholders, acting together, will have the ability to control substantially all matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including:

 
election of our board of directors;
 
removal of any of our directors;
 
amendment of our certificate of incorporation or bylaws; and
 
adoption of measures that could delay or prevent a change in control or impede a merger, takeover or other business combination involving us.

As a result of their ownership and positions, our directors, executive officers and principal shareholders collectively are able to influence all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. In addition, sales of significant amounts of shares held by our directors, executive officers or principal shareholders, or the prospect of these sales, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Management's stock ownership may discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us, which in turn could reduce our stock price or prevent our stockholders from realizing a premium over our stock price.

In addition to the operating of the wells, we own an 80% undivided interest in approximately 40 miles of a natural gas pipeline, as well as an 80% undivided interest in a saltwater and drilling fluid disposal system.       

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. We are currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse affect on our business, consolidated financial condition, or operating results.

Overview

We are an organic growth-oriented independent energy company engaged in the exploration and production of natural gas and oil through the development of a repeatable, low geological risk, high potential project in the active East Texas oil and gas region.  We currently hold interests in properties located in Marion and Cass County, Texas, home to the Rodessa oil field.   The field has historically been the domain of small independent operators and is not a legacy field for any major oil company.

Our Cornerstone Project is to identify and exploit resources in and adjacent to existing or indicated producing areas within the Rodessa field area.  We intend to quickly develop and produce reserves at a low cost and will take an aggressive approach to exploiting our contiguous acreage position through utilization of “best in class” drilling, (i.e. using the latest drilling techniques available and seismic technology).  We believe that we are uniquely familiar with the history and geology of the Cornerstone Project area based on our collective experience in the region as well as through our ownership of a large proprietary database which details the drilling history of the Cornerstone Project area over the previous 30 years.  We believe implementing our drilling strategy and using new drilling and completion techniques will enable us to find significant gas and oil reserves in the Cornerstone Project area.
 
We conduct our main exploration and production operations through our wholly-owned subsidiary, POI.  We conduct additional operations through two other wholly-owned subsidiaries: (i) TR Rodessa and (ii) 59 Disposal.

TR Rodessa owns an 80% undivided interest in and operates a 40-mile natural gas pipeline and gathering system which we currently use to transport our hydrocarbons to market.  Excess capacity on this system is used to transport third-party hydrocarbons.  In 2008, TR Rodessa expanded the capacity of its system through the construction of a new 9,238 foot 8”  trunkline. A total in excess of one mile of 4” laterals were constructed to the Childers #2, Harris #2, Huntington #4 and Childers # 3 well sites. These gathering lines have been tied into the central gathering point at the Huntington location.

59 Disposal owns an 80% undivided interest in and operates a saltwater disposal facility which disposes saltwater and flow-back waste into subsurface storage.

Plan of Operations

We intend to continue to use our competitive strengths to advance our corporate strategy.  The following are key elements of that strategy:

Develop the Cornerstone Project in East Texas through an aggressive drilling program.  We will focus our near-term efforts on development drilling on existing acreage concentrating on oil potential.  We expect this drilling program to increase our proved reserve and cash flow profile.
 
Apply management expertise in the Cornerstone Project area and recent developments in drilling and completion technology to identify new drilling opportunities and enhance production.  We plan to maximize the present value of our vertical wells by utilizing a shotgun-dual or sawtooth production technique. We will also implement the latest drilling, fracturing, and completion techniques, including shotgun duals, to develop our properties as well as horizontal drilling.  These horizontal wells will primarily target the Bossier formation and we anticipate these wells will yield significantly higher hydrocarbon flow rates than our vertical wells.
 
Continue to lease underdeveloped acreage in the Cornerstone Project area.  We plan to use our extensive proprietary database to help optimize additional drilling locations and to acquire additional acreage.  We intend to target acreage with exploitation and technology upside within the Cornerstone Project area.  Most properties in the project area are held by smaller independent companies that lack the resources to exploit them fully.  We intend to pursue these opportunities to selectively expand our portfolio of properties.  These acreage additions will complement our existing substantial acreage position in the area and provide us with significant additional drilling inventory.
 
Maintain a conservative and flexible financial strategy.  We intend to continue to focus on maintaining a low level of corporate overhead expense in addition to continued utilization of outsourcing, when appropriate, to maximize cash flow.  We believe this internally-generated cash flow, coupled with reserve-based debt financing when appropriate, will provide the optimal capital structure to fund our future drilling activity.

In order to implement our strategy, we will first need to raise additional capital to develop our properties.  We may also consider farmout agreements, whereby we would lease parts of our properties to other operators for drilling purposes and we would receive payment based on the production.  We anticipate the cost of a horizontal oil well will be approximately $5 million and a vertical shallow gas well to be approximately $0.8 million.

Our oil and gas assets are located in Cass and Marion counties in northeast Texas.  As of December 31, 2009, we operated nine wells.  We did have a major workover on the 59 Disposal plant disposal well where the tubing was replaced and the well refurbished.  The work began early December 2009 and was completed in January 2010.

As of December 31, 2009, our leasehold position is approximately 21,000 gross acres and 14,000 net acres.  We have an 80% working interest in the acreage. We have an ongoing leasing program whereby expiring leases are being renewed and previously unleased acreage is being leased.  We began discussions with two independent oil and gas companies during the first quarter of 2010 regarding leasing specific areas on the Cornerstone project.  Agreements were finalized in the middle of February and late March 2010 and could result in up to $4,000,000 and $4,700,000, respectively, in lease acquisitions.  This would include both extensions and renewals of existing leasehold that we currently hold and acquisitions of new leaseholds in order to expand our acreage position.  The participating companies will pay 100% of the cost for a 50% interest in the acreage, resulting in no cost to us.  We believe that this will result in follow-up drilling opportunities.  There were no amounts paid at signing or guaranteed or conditional payments.

In addition to the operating of the wells, we own an 80% undivided interest in approximately 40 miles of natural gas pipeline as well as an 80% undivided interest in a saltwater and drilling fluid disposal system.  The pipeline system was extended to connect to the Harris #2 and the Childers #2.  In 2008, we expanded our pipeline system by 9,238 feet by building a new eight-inch high pressure line to accommodate our production. Additional work is anticipated on the pipeline to enhance transportation of third-party gas.  

We are seeking to raise additional capital.  However, we currently do not have any other contracts or commitments for funding and there are no guarantees that we will be able to raise funds on terms acceptable to us.  Effective March 1, 2010, we executed an agreement with an independent investor relations consultant.  In return for the consultant’s services, he will receive Director and Officer insurance as our spokesperson, 20,000 shares of our common stock, and a monthly fee of $3,500 plus any approved expenses incurred related to work performed on our behalf.  One half of the shares pursuant to this agreement are due August 1, 2010 and the remaining shares are due on March 1, 2011.
 
 
25

 

 
If we are able to obtain funding, our main emphasis will be to explore for oil with horizontal drilling.  The present discussions are based on pursuing an aggressive drilling program where we would be carried for an interest in any wells at no cost to us.  In addition, any funds could be used to apply fracture treatment to the Harris #2 and Childers #2 as well as deepening the Childers #1 and Harris #1.  The deepening will be to a minimum depth to complete the wells in the Cotton Valley formation and possibly deeper in order to evaluate the Cotton Valley Lime formation.

Revenues:  Total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2009 totaled $1,006,118, compared to $2,601,236 for the year ended December 31, 2008.  Production revenues of oil and gas decreased $720,637 to $537,410 for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to $1,258,047 for the year ended December 31, 2008.  Approximately $553,000 of this decrease in revenues reflects the impact of a drop in sales prices from production on our operated wells, for natural gas of about 59% and oil of about 44%.  Approximately $164,000 of the decrease is due to a drop in production from our operated wells.  The remaining $3,000 decrease is related to production from wells in which we do not operate.  Transportation and gathering revenue decreased $596,014 to $246,264 for the for the year ended December 31, 2009, compared to $842,278 for the year ended December 31, 2008 due to the drop in sales price for natural gas.
 
Expenses:  Total other operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2009 were $1,148,693, compared to $1,628,851 for the year ended December 31, 2008.  This change is comprised of decreases in cost of gas purchased for resale offset by an increase in lease operating expenses.  In addition, general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2009 were $2,201,044 compared to $2,553,471 for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Cost of Gas Purchased for Resale:  The $560,088 decrease in cost of gas purchased for resale to $148,054 for the year ended December 31, 2009 from $708,142 for the year ended December 31, 2008 is due to a drop in the purchase price for natural gas and volumes purchased from operators.

 
Lease Operating Expenses:  The $83,008 increase in lease operating expenses to $388,548 for the year ended December 31, 2009 from $305,540 for the year ended December 31, 2008 is primarily due to workover costs on the Bramlett and Ralph #1 wells and the operating costs of the Childers #2 and Harris #2 wells.  The Childers #2 and Harris #2 were not operating during the first six months of 2008.

General and Administrative Expense:  The $352,427 decrease in general and administrative expense to $2,201,044 for the year ended December 31, 2009 from $2,553,471 for the year ended December 31, 2008 is primarily due to decreased audit and accounting fees.  The decrease in audit and accounting fees of $259,565 was mainly due to work performed during the first nine months of 2008 related to the preparation of the S-1 registration statement, the 2007 10-K, and the restatement of the Form 10-Q for the three-month period ended March 31, 2008.  In addition, due to the decrease in revenue during 2009, we made a concerted effort to decrease expenses such as contract labor, automobile, and travel.

Other Income (Expenses):  Total other expenses for the year ended December 31, 2009 was $474,033, compared to $201,223 for the year ended December 31, 2008.  The primary reason for this $272,810 increase was primarily due to a $71,383 decrease in interest income and a $91,944 increase in interest expense.  Interest income decreased from $73,814 for the year ended December 31, 2008 to $2,431 for the year ended December 31, 2009 due to the significant decrease in cash as well as lower interest rates.  Interest expense increased from $364,775 for the year ended December 31, 2008 to $456,719 for the year ended December 31, 2009 due to an increase in the note payable, related party balance.  The remaining increase was partially due to an over accrual in 2008 of the liquidated damages expense that was corrected in the third quarter of 2008.

Income Tax Expense:  During the year ended December 31, 2009, we recognized an income tax benefit of $5,702 as compared to an income tax benefit of $1,097,386 for the year ended December 31, 2008.  The $1,091,684 difference is primarily due to a change in the valuation allowance at the end of 2008 because of the likelihood that we would not be liable for any deferred tax liabilities.

Operating Loss:  As a result of the above described revenues and expenses, we incurred a net operating loss of $2,811,950 in the year ended December 31, 2009 as compared to an operating loss of $684,923 in the year ended December 31, 2008.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We held approximately $127,000 in cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2009, compared to approximately $792,000 at December 31, 2008.  The decrease in cash and cash equivalents is related to purchases of lease and well equipment and oil and gas properties and using cash to cover operating expenses.  The decrease is partially offset by additional proceeds received from Teton, a related party, on our notes payable.

Cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2009 totaled $1,643,875, compared to $2,710,683 used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2008.  The change is primarily due to an additional $2,034,777 provided by changes in connection with operating assets and liabilities offset by an increase in the net loss. The net loss was $2,811,950 for the year ended December 31, 2009, an increase from the net loss of $684,923 for the year ended December 31, 2008.  The changes in operating assets and liabilities are primarily due to changes in accounts receivable, related parties, other current assets, accounts payable, related parties, joint-interest deposits, related parties, and interest payable, related party.

Cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2009 was $489,615, compared to $4,687,328 for the year ended December 31, 2008.  The change is due primarily to decreased drilling activities during the year ended December 31, 2009.  Drilling and completion of the Harris #2 and Childers #2 wells were finished in January and February 2008, respectively.  We spent approximately $459,000 on lease and well equipment and leasehold costs in 2009, compared to approximately $4,500,000 on lease and well equipment, leasehold costs, and intangible drilling and completion costs in 2008.  Finally, property and equipment purchases were approximately $30,000 in 2009 compared to approximately $221,000 in 2008.

Cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2009 totaled $1,468,411, compared to $745,017 of cash used in financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2008.  In 2009, we received cash proceeds of $1,475,000 on a related party note payable.  In January 2008, we made a payment of $742,544 of principal on that same related party note payable.

Sources of Liquidity

Our main source of liquidity continues to be from funds generated by production from our wells.  Any shortfall in revenue to cover costs has been covered by utilizing financing from a related party in the form of notes payable.  We believe that the proceeds from production and additional financing available from related parties will be sufficient to finance our operations for 2010. However, we have no additional commitments from related parties beyond those already in place. In addition, future acquisitions and future exploration, development, production and marketing activities, as well as administrative requirements (such as salaries, insurance expenses, general overhead expenses, legal compliance costs and accounting expenses) will require a substantial amount of additional capital and cash flow.

We plan to pursue sources of additional capital through various financing transactions or arrangements, including joint venturing of projects, debt financing, equity financing or other means.  We have aggressively contacted many potential investors both within the industry as well as institutional investors to secure additional financing.  Additional financing would be use for in drilling opportunities and additional lease funding in the near future, along with working capital purposes.  We do not have any commitments or agreements for financing, and we cannot assure you that additional funding will be available on terms acceptable to us, if at all.

We also entered into a credit agreement with lenders led by Amegy Bank, N.A. in November 2007.  Pursuant to the terms of the credit agreement, the aggregate commitment is $50 million, with no initial borrowing base or borrowing base reduction under the agreement.  Upon satisfaction of various conditions precedent to the initial credit extension, the borrowing base will be $5 million and the initial monthly borrowing base reduction will be determined on the initial funding date.  As of December 31, 2009, these conditions had not been met.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our consolidated financial condition, revenues, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.

Critical Accounting Policies
 
Our critical accounting policies, including the assumptions and judgments underlying them, are disclosed in the notes to consolidated financial statements which accompany the consolidated financial statements.  These policies have been consistently applied in all material respects and address such matters as revenue recognition and depreciation methods.  The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the recorded amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.

We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers’ financial condition and extend credit to virtually all of our customers.  Collateral is generally not required, nor is interest charged on past due balances.  Credit losses to date have not been significant and have been within management’s expectations.  In the event of complete non-performance by our customers, our maximum exposure is the outstanding accounts receivable balance at the date of non-performance.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from five to thirty-nine years.  Expenditures for major renewals and betterments that extend the useful lives are capitalized.  Expenditures for normal maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.  Upon the sale or abandonment, the cost of the equipment and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gains or losses thereon are recognized in the operating results of the respective period.

Oil and Gas Properties

We use the full-cost method of accounting for our oil and gas producing activities, which are all located in Texas.  Accordingly, all costs associated with the acquisition, exploration, and development of oil and gas reserves, including directly-related overhead costs, are capitalized.

All capitalized costs of oil and gas properties, including the estimated future costs to develop proved reserves, are amortized on the units-of-production method using estimates of proved reserves.  Investments in unproved properties and major development projects are not amortized until proved reserves associated with the projects can be determined or until impairment occurs.  If the results of an assessment indicate that the properties are impaired, the amount of the impairment will be added to the capitalized costs to be amortized.
 
In addition, the capitalized costs are subject to a “ceiling test,” which limits such costs to the aggregate of the “estimated present value,” discounted at a ten percent interest rate, of future net revenues from proved reserves, based on current economic and operating conditions, plus the lower of cost or fair market value of unproved properties and less the income tax effects related to the properties.

Sales of proved and unproved properties are accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs with no gain or loss recognized, unless such adjustments would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves of oil and gas, in which case the gain or loss is recognized in the operating results of the respective period.

Revenue Recognition

We utilize the accrual method of accounting for natural gas and crude oil revenues, whereby revenues are recognized based on our net revenue interest in the wells.  Crude oil inventories are immaterial and are not recorded.

Gas imbalances are accounted for using the entitlement method.  Under this method, revenues are recognized only to the extent of our proportionate share of the gas sold.  However, we have no history of significant gas imbalances.

Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes are determined using the “liability method” in accordance with FASB ASC Topic No. 740, Income Taxes.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.
 
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which such temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the operating results of the period that includes the enactment date.  In addition, a valuation allowance is established to reduce any deferred tax asset for which it is determined that it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2009, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, which replaces SFAS No, 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.  As of September 15, 2009, the date that SFAS No. 168 became effective, the new name for this standard is, FASB ASC Topic No. 105, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.  FASB ASC Topic No. 105 establishes the FASB ASC (the “Codification”) as the source of authoritative U.S. GAAP.  Now that the Codification is in effect, all of its content carries the same level of authority.  FASB ASC Topic No. 105 became effective September 15, 2009.  The FASB does not expect that FASB ASC Topic No. 105 will result in a change in current practice, and the Company does not believe that FASB ASC Topic No. 105 will have an impact on its consolidated operating results, financial position, or cash flows.

On December 31, 2008, the SEC issued Modernization of Oil and Gas Reporting updating its oil and gas reporting requirements. Many of the revisions are updates to definitions in the existing oil and gas rules to make them consistent with the petroleum resource management system, which is a widely accepted standard for the management of petroleum resources that was developed by several industry organizations. Key revisions include changes to the pricing used to estimate reserves utilizing a 12-month average price rather than a single day spot price which eliminates the ability to utilize subsequent prices to the end of a reporting period when the full-cost ceiling was exceeded and subsequent pricing exceeds pricing at the end of a reporting period, the ability to include nontraditional resources in reserves, the use of new technology for determining reserves, and permitting disclosure of probable and possible reserves.  The SEC requires companies to comply with the amended disclosure requirements for registration statements filed after January 1, 2010, and for annual reports on Form 10-K for fiscal years ending on or after December 15, 2009.  Early adoption was not permitted. The Company has included the required disclosures in this report.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 


To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Pegasi Energy Resources Corporation

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Pegasi Energy Resources Corporation as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended.  These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Pegasi Energy Resources Corporation as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

PEGASI ENERGY RESOURCES CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2009 AND 2008


1.   NATURE OF OPERATIONS
 
Pegasi Energy Resources Corporation (“PERC,” or the “Company”) is engaged in the exploration and production of natural gas and oil through the development of a repeatable, low geological risk, high potential project in the active East Texas oil and gas region.  The Company's business strategy, which it designated as the “Cornerstone Project,” is to identify and exploit resources in and adjacent to existing or indicated producing areas within the Rodessa field area.  PERC’s principals spent over three years and invested over $3.5 million in equity for data harvesting, prospect evaluation and acreage acquisitions for the Cornerstone Project.  

PERC is the successor entity to First Southern Crown Ltd. ("FSC"), a Texas limited partnership formed in December 2002.   In December 2004, FSC sold a thirty percent (30%) interest in all of its production, acreage position, pipeline and a thirty percent (30%) partnership interest in 59 Disposal, Inc. ("59 Disposal") (PERC’s disposal plant) to Marion Energy Limited ("Marion"), an entity publicly traded on the Australian stock exchange ("ASE.ax").  In February 2007, Marion traded its 30% partnership interest in 59 Disposal for a 30% undivided ownership in 59 Disposal’s assets.  Marion later sold its 30% undivided interest in 59 Disposal’s assets, its production interest, acreage position, and its pipeline interest to TR Energy, Inc. (“TR Energy”), a related party.  In 2008, the Company acquired an additional 10% interest in these assets in exchange for 4.2 million shares of the Company’s stock.
 
PERC conducts its main exploration and production operations through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Pegasi Operating, Inc. ("POI").  It conducts additional operations through two other wholly-owned subsidiaries: (i) TR Rodessa, Inc. ("TR Rodessa") and (ii) 59 Disposal. 

TR Rodessa owns an 80% undivided interest in and operates a 40-mile natural gas pipeline and gathering system which is currently being used by PERC to transport its hydrocarbons to market.  Excess capacity on this system is used to transport third-party hydrocarbons.   59 Disposal owns an 80% undivided interest in and operates a saltwater disposal facility which disposes saltwater and flow back waste into subsurface storage.
  
2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a)  Consolidation and Use of Estimates
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and include the accounts of PERC and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.  All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.  In preparing the accompanying consolidated financial statements, management has made certain estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and disclosures.  Actual results may differ from these estimates.


 
F-8

 
PEGASI ENERGY RESOURCES CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2009 AND 2008


a)  Consolidation and Use of Estimates - continued
Estimates made in preparing these consolidated financial statements include, among other things, estimates of the proved oil and natural gas reserve volumes used in calculating depletion expense; the estimated future cash flows and fair value of properties used in determining the need for any impairment write-down; operating costs accrued; volumes and prices for revenues accrued; estimates of the fair value of stock-based compensation awards; and the timing and amount of future abandonment costs used in calculating asset retirement obligations.  Future changes in the assumptions used could have a significant impact on reported results in future periods.

b)  Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in banks, money market accounts, and all highly-liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less.   At December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company had no cash equivalents.

c)  Accounts Receivable
The Company’s accounts receivable consists primarily of oil and natural gas sales and joint interest billings, which are recorded at the invoiced amount. Collateral is not required for such receivables, nor is interest charged on past due balances.  The Company extends credit based on management’s assessment of the customers’ financial condition and evaluates the allowance for doubtful accounts based on receivable aging, customer disputes and general business and economic conditions.  No allowance was indicated at December 31, 2009 or 2008.  Accounts receivables from three customers approximated 44%, 37%, and 15% of the Company’s total trade receivables at December 31, 2009.  As of December 31, 2008, four customers, three of which are the same customers, totaled approximately 27%, 22%, 21%, and 11% of total accounts receivable.

d)  Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from five to thirty-nine years.  Expenditures for major renewals and betterments that extend the useful lives are capitalized.  Expenditures for normal maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.   Upon sale or abandonment, the cost of the equipment and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gains or losses thereon are recognized in the operating results of the respective period.   Depreciation expense was $146,223 and $123,874 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.  

e)  Oil and Gas Properties
The Company uses the full-cost method of accounting for its oil and gas producing activities, which are all located in Texas. Accordingly, all costs associated with the acquisition, exploration, and development of oil and gas reserves, including directly related overhead costs, are capitalized.

All capitalized costs of oil and gas properties, including the estimated future costs to develop proved reserves, are amortized on the units-of-production method using estimates of proved reserves. Investments in unproved properties and major development projects are not amortized until proved reserves associated with the projects can be determined or until impairment occurs. If the results of an assessment indicate that the properties are impaired, the amount of the impairment shall be added to the capitalized costs to be amortized.

In addition, the capitalized costs are subject to a “ceiling test,” which limits such costs to the aggregate of the “estimated present value,” discounted at a 10 percent interest rate of future net revenues from proved reserves, based on current economic and operating conditions, plus the lower of cost or fair market value of unproved properties and less the income tax effects related to the properties. As capitalized costs do not exceed the “ceiling,” the accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include a provision for such impairment of oil and gas property costs for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.

Sales of proved and unproved properties are accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs with no gain or loss recognized, unless such adjustments would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves of oil and gas, in which case the gain or loss is recognized in the operating results of the period.

f)  Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The carrying value of property and equipment is periodically evaluated under the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic No. 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment.   FASB ASC Topic No. 360 requires long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  When it is determined that the estimated future net cash flows of an asset will not be sufficient to recover its carrying amount, an impairment loss must be recorded to reduce the carrying amount to its estimated fair value.
 
g)  Asset Retirement Obligations
FASB ASC Topic No. 410, Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations, requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which the liability is incurred.  For oil and natural gas properties, this is the period in which an oil or natural gas property is acquired or a new well is drilled.  An amount equal to and offsetting the liability is capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the Company’s oil and natural gas properties at its discounted fair value.  The liability is then accreted up by recording expense each period until it is settled or the well is sold, at which time the liability is reversed.  Estimates are based on historical experience in plugging and abandoning wells and estimated remaining lives of those wells based on reserve estimates.  The Company does not provide for a market risk premium associated with asset retirement obligations because a reliable estimate cannot be determined.  See Note 8 – Asset Retirement Obligations for additional information.
 
h)  Revenue Recognition
The Company utilizes the accrual method of accounting for natural gas and crude oil revenues, whereby revenues are recognized based on the Company’s net revenue interest in the wells.   Crude oil inventories are immaterial and are not recorded.  Gas imbalances are accounted for using the entitlement method.  Under this method revenues are recognized only to the extent of the Company’s proportionate share of the gas sold.  However, the Company has no history of significant gas imbalances.

i)  Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes are determined using the “liability method” in accordance with FASB ASC Topic No. 740, Income Taxes.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the operating results of the period that includes the enactment date.  In addition, a valuation allowance is established to reduce any deferred tax asset for which it is determined that it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

j)  Net Loss per Common Share
Basic net loss per common share is calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.   The Company uses the treasury stock method of calculating fully diluted per share amounts whereby any proceeds from the exercise of stock options or other dilutive instruments are assumed to be used to purchase common shares at the average market price during the period. The dilutive effect of convertible securities is reflected in diluted loss per share by application of the if-converted method. Under this method, conversion shall not be assumed for the purposes of computing diluted loss per share if the effect would be anti-dilutive. For the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 the Company had potentially dilutive shares of approximately 10,462,484 and 10,738,293, respectively,  which are not included in the calculation of the net loss per share, because the effect would be anti-dilutive. For the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, the diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share, as the effect of common stock equivalents are anti-dilutive.

k)  Fair Value of Financial Instruments
In accordance with the reporting requirements of FASB ASC Topic No. 825, Financial Instruments, the Company calculates the fair value of its assets and liabilities which qualify as financial instruments under this statement and includes this additional information in the notes to consolidated financial statements when the fair value is different than the carrying value of these financial instruments.  The estimated fair values of accounts receivable, accounts payable and other current assets and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying amounts due to the relatively short maturity of these instruments.  The carrying value of long-term debt approximates market value due to the use of market interest rates.  

l)  New Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2009, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, which replaces SFAS No, 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.  As of September 15, 2009, the date that SFAS No. 168 became effective, the new name for this standard is, FASB ASC Topic No. 105, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.  FASB ASC Topic No. 105 establishes the FASB ASC (the “Codification”) as the source of authoritative U.S. GAAP.  Now that the Codification is in effect, all of its content carries the same level of authority.  FASB ASC Topic No. 105 became effective September 15, 2009.  The FASB does not expect that FASB ASC Topic No. 105 will result in a change in current practice, and the Company does not believe that FASB ASC Topic No. 105 will have an impact on its consolidated operating results, financial position, or cash flows.

On December 31, 2008, the SEC issued Modernization of Oil and Gas Reporting updating its oil and gas reporting requirements. Many of the revisions are updates to definitions in the existing oil and gas rules to make them consistent with the petroleum resource management system, which is a widely accepted standard for the management of petroleum resources that was developed by several industry organizations. Key revisions include changes to the pricing used to estimate reserves utilizing a 12-month average price rather than a single day spot price which eliminates the ability to utilize subsequent prices to the end of a reporting period when the full-cost ceiling was exceeded and subsequent pricing exceeds pricing at the end of a reporting period, the ability to include nontraditional resources in reserves, the use of new technology for determining reserves, and permitting disclosure of probable and possible reserves. The SEC requires companies to comply with the amended disclosure requirements for registration statements filed after January 1, 2010, and for annual reports on Form 10-K for fiscal years ending on or after December 15, 2009. Early adoption was not permitted. The Company has included the required disclosures in this report.

5.  LINE-OF-CREDIT

Amegy Bank, N.A.
On November 28, 2007, PERC entered into a credit agreement with a group of lenders led by Amegy Bank, N.A. (“Amegy”), as administrative agent and as issuing lender.  Pursuant to the terms of the credit agreement, the aggregate commitment is $50 million and the maturity date is November 28, 2010.  There is no initial borrowing base and no initial monthly borrowing base reduction under the Agreement.  Upon satisfaction of various conditions precedent to the initial credit extension, the borrowing base will be $5 million and the initial monthly borrowing base reduction will be determined on the initial funding date.  As of December 31, 2009, these conditions had not been met.

The borrowing base and the monthly borrowing base reduction will be determined using proved reserves and will be redetermined every six months with one additional redetermination possible during the various six-month periods between scheduled redeterminations.

At the Company's option, interest is based on either (i) the prime rate plus the applicable margin not to exceed the highest lawful rate or (ii) the LIBOR rate applicable to the interest period plus the applicable margin, not to exceed the highest lawful rate.  For base rate loans, interest is due monthly.  For LIBOR loans that are three months or less in maturity, interest is due on the maturity date of such loan.  For LIBOR loans that are in excess of three months, interest is due every three months.
 
The credit agreement imposes certain restrictions, subject to specific exceptions, on the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries including, but not limited to, the following:  (i) incurring additional liens; (ii) incurring additional debt; (iii) making certain payments, including cash dividends to stockholders; (iv) making any loans, advances, or making any investment in, or purchasing, or committing to purchase any stock or other securities or evidences of indebtedness or interests in any person or any oil and natural gas properties or activities related to oil and natural gas properties unless with regard to new oil and natural gas properties, such properties are mortgaged to Amegy, as administrative agent; (v) incurring additional leases; (vi) entering into affiliate transactions on terms that are not at least as favorable to the Company as comparable arm’s length transactions; and (vii) merging or consolidating or selling, transferring, assigning, farming-out, conveying or otherwise disposing of any property.

The obligation under the credit agreement will be secured by a lien on: (i) all of the mortgaged properties; (ii) accounts receivable, notes receivable, inventory, contract rights, general intangibles and other personal property; (iii) subsidiary equity interests, and (iv) other collateral as provided in the agreement.  In addition, each of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries guaranteed all of the Company’s obligations.

On May 1, 2007, a “Memorandum of Understanding” was executed to grant Teton the right to convert the outstanding balance on the Teton Note into shares of PERC’s common stock at a fixed conversion price of $1.20 per share.  Teton has the right, but not the obligation to convert all or a portion of the indebtedness at any time after May 1, 2008, unless the debt is repaid before such date.  This option will continue in existence as long as any balance remains outstanding on the note.

On March 3, 2009, a “Second Amendment to Renewal Promissory Note and Loan Modification Agreement” (the “Second Amendment”) was executed, which amended the Teton Note.  This agreement added $550,000 of additional cash proceeds and $20,000 of advances payable to the outstanding balance of the Teton Note and pledged substantially all of the Company’s assets to secure repayment of the note.  The Second Amendment confirmed that the fixed conversion price of $1.20 per share would remain for the portion of the note payable balance that existed prior its execution, and a fixed conversion price of $1.60 was agreed upon for conversion of the additional funds.

In May 2009, the third and fourth amendments to the Teton Note were executed.  The third amendment deferred the May 21, 2009 interest payment to September 21, 2009 and the fourth amendment added $350,000 of additional funds to the outstanding balance of the Teton Note.  In September 2009, the fifth amendment was executed, which added $175,000 of additional funds to the outstanding balance of the Teton Note and deferred the interest payment due date from September 21, 2009 to October 21, 2009.  In February 2010, the seventh amendment to the Teton Note, dated May 21, 2007, was executed.  This amendment amended the sixth amendment, executed in October 2009, to defer the October 21, 2009 interest payment to February 21, 2010. The seventh amendment eliminated the February 21, 2010 interest payment.

8. ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS

Pursuant to FASB ASC Topic No. 410, Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations, the Company has recognized the fair value of its asset retirement obligations related to the plugging, abandonment, and remediation of oil and gas producing properties.  The present value of the estimated asset retirement costs has been capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the related long-lived assets, which approximated $220,237 at both December 31, 2009 and 2008.

The liability has been accreted to its present value as of the end of each year.  The Company evaluated 13 wells, and has determined a range of abandonment dates through June 2022.

The following represents a reconciliation of the asset retirement obligations for the years ended December 31,:

In order to ensure current costs are reflected in the estimation of retirement costs, the Company obtained assurance from its independent petroleum engineer in 2009 that the plugging costs used in the estimation are appropriate.  The Company uses the expected present value technique to measure the fair value of the asset retirement obligations which is classified as a Level 3 measurement under FASB ASC Topic No. 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.
 
 
9.  STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company has granted stock options to key employees, directors, and consultants as discussed below:

On May 29, 2007, the Company adopted the 2007 Stock Option Plan (the “2007 Plan”) for employees, consultants and such other persons selected by the plan administrator to provide a means to retain the services of such employees and strengthen their incentive to achieve the objectives of the Company and to provide an equity incentive to consultants and other persons to promote the success of the Company.  The 2007 Plan reserves 1,750,000 shares of common stock for issuance by the Company as stock options.

On December 31, 2007, pursuant to the 2007 Plan, the Company issued stock options for 900,000 shares of common stock to various managers and directors, in exchange for certain financial and management consulting services.  Each option entitles the holder to acquire one common share at an exercise price of $1.20.  These options vested immediately upon issuance at December 31, 2007, and are exercisable at any time, in whole or part, until December 31, 2012.
 
On December 26, 2008, the Company adopted the 2008 Incentive Stock Option Plan (the “2008 Plan”) for employees, directors, executives, and consultants to reward them for making major contributions to the success of the Company by issuing long-term incentive awards under the 2008 Plan thereby providing them with an interest in the growth and performance of the Company.  The 2008 Plan reserves 5,000,000 shares of common stock for issuance by the Company as stock options, stock awards or restricted stock purchase offers.
 
There were no stock options granted during the year ended December 31, 2009, under either the 2008 or 2007 plans.

Based on the future reversal of existing taxable temporary differences and future earnings expectations, management believes it is more likely than not that the full amount of the net operating loss carry forwards will not be realized or settled, and accordingly, a valuation allowance has been recorded.  The Company’s net operating loss carry forwards approximate $7,425,000 and will expire in various years commencing in 2023.
 
In May 2006, the State of Texas enacted legislation for a Texas margin tax which restructured the state business tax by replacing the taxable capital and earned surplus components of the franchise tax with a new “taxable margin” component.  The Company’s margin tax expense is derived by multiplying its taxable margin by 1%.  The taxable margin can be derived, at the Company’s discretion, in any one of three ways.  The Company can choose gross receipts less its cost of goods sold, gross receipts less its salary and wages, or 70% of its gross receipts. The Company has determined the margin tax is an income tax and the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities should be included in the deferred tax calculation.  The Company accrued $15,093 for margin tax payable at December 31, 2008.  No margin tax accrual was necessary at December 31, 2009

Environmental
To date, the Company’s expenditures to comply with environmental or safety regulations have not been significant and are not expected to be significant in the future.  Management monitors these laws and regulations and periodically assesses the propriety of its operational and accounting policies related to environmental issues.  The Company is unable to predict whether its future operations will be materially affected by these laws and regulations.  It is believed that legislation and regulations relating to environmental protection will not materially affect the consolidated results of operations of the Company.

Employment Contracts
The Company has an employment contract with its President and Chief Executive Officer that requires minimum compensation totaling $250,000 annually through December 12, 2010.  The Company’s Executive Vice President has an employment contract through December 12, 2010 that provides for minimum compensation of $225,000 annually.  The Company’s Sr. Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, has an employment contract through December 12, 2010 that provides for minimum compensation of $210,000 annually.

Leases
The Company leases certain office space under a non-cancelable operating lease that expires August 31, 2010.  This lease may be renewed for additional periods ranging from one to two years.  Lease expense was approximately $24,000 and $35,000 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
 
Total future annual lease obligations at December 31, 2009 are as follows:

2010
 
$
18,000
 
         
 
Contingent Liabilities
In preparing financial statements at any point in time, management is periodically faced with uncertainties, the outcomes of which are not within its control and will not be known for prolonged periods of time. The Company is involved in actions from time to time, which if determined adversely, could have a material negative impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Management, with the assistance of counsel makes estimates, if determinable, of the Company’s probable liabilities and records such amounts in the consolidated financial statements. Such estimates may be the minimum amount of a range of probable loss when no single best estimate is determinable. Disclosure is made, when determinable, of any additional possible amount of loss on these claims, or if such estimate cannot be made, that fact is disclosed.
 
Along with the Company's counsel, management monitors developments related to legal matters and, when appropriate, makes adjustments to record liabilities to reflect current facts and circumstances.  Management has recorded a liability related to its registration rights agreement with investors that provides for the filing of a registration statement for the registration of the shares issued in the offering in December 2007, as well as the shares issuable upon exercise of related warrants.  The Company failed to meet the deadline for the effectiveness of the registration statement and therefore was required to pay liquidated damages of approximately $100,000 on the first day of effectiveness failure, or July 18, 2008.  An additional $100,000 penalty was required to be paid by the Company every thirty days thereafter, pro rated for periods totaling less than thirty days, until the effectiveness failure was cured, up to a maximum of 18% of the aggregate purchase price, or approximately $1,800,000.  The Company’s registration became effective on August 21, 2008.  At December 31, 2009, management reevaluated the status of the registration statement and determined an accrual of $142,083 was sufficient to cover any potential payments for liquidated damages.  The damages are reflected as liquidated damages payable of $142,083 and $121,579 in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

16. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

In February 2010, the seventh amendment to the Teton Note, dated May 21, 2007, was executed to eliminate the February 21, 2010 interest payment required by the sixth amendment.  The final maturity date of the Teton Note is unchanged and remains May 21, 2010.  Effective October 14, 2009, the Company entered into a $1 million promissory note agreement with Teton with interest of 6.25% per year.  Quarterly payments of all accrued interest were to be paid on January 1, 2010, April 1, 2010, July 1, 2010, and October 1, 2010.  Effective January 1, 2010 an amendment to this promissory note was executed and eliminated the requirement for interest payments on January 1, 2010, April 1, 2010, and October 1, 2010.  Principal shall be the sum of all advances made to the Company and is due, along with the outstanding accrued interest, and payable on October 14, 2010.

Effective February 16, 2010, PERC executed an agreement with an independent oil and gas company which would result in an initial $1 million for lease acquisitions and could result in maximum funds of $4 million to be used for lease acquisitions.  This would include both extensions and renewals of existing leaseholds that PERC currently holds as well as acquisitions of new leaseholds in order to expand the Company’s acreage position.  The participating company will pay 100% of the cost for a 50% interest in the acreage.

Effective March 1, 2010, the Company executed an agreement with an independent investor relations consultant.  In return for the consultant’s services, he will receive Director and Officer insurance as a Company spokesperson, 20,000 shares of the Company’s stock, and a monthly fee of $3,500 plus any approved expenses incurred related to work performed on behalf of the Company.  One half of the shares pursuant to this agreement are due August 1, 2010 and the remaining shares are due on March 1, 2011.

Effective March 23, 2010, PERC executed an agreement with another independent oil and gas company which would result in an initial $3.7 million for lease acquisitions and could result in maximum funds of $4.7 million to be used for lease acquisitions.  This would include both extensions and renewals of existing leaseholds that PERC currently holds as well as acquisitions of new leaseholds in order to expand the Company’s acreage position.  The participating company will pay 100% of the cost for a 50% interest in the acreage.

17.   RISK CONCENTRATIONS

PERC maintains its deposits primarily in two financial institutions, which at times may exceed amounts covered by insurance provided by the U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.  The Company had no uninsured deposits on December 31, 2009 and 2008.  During 2008, the Company had a sweep account in which the balance was invested daily in federal obligations.  The sweep account was temporarily closed during 2009 due to there not being enough cash to merit keeping it open. The balance for the sweep account approximated $984,000 at December 31, 2008.  There was no balance for the sweep account at December 31, 2009.  The Company has not experienced any losses with respect to uninsured balances.

Two customers accounted for approximately 39% and 37% of the Company’s total sales for the year ended December 31, 2009.  Three customers, the first two of which are the same, accounted for approximately 36%, 31%, and 17%, respectively, of the Company’s total sales for the year ended December 31, 2008.  Revenues were reported from these customers in the oil and gas, condensate and skim oil, and transportation and gathering segments.

Lease operating payments primarily made to a principal operator on its oil and gas producing properties approximated $372,000 and $294,000 in 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Reserve Quantity Information

The following table presents the Company’s estimate of its proved oil and gas reserves all of which are located in the United States.  As a result the drilling of the Harris #2 and Childers #2 wells during 2008, new reserves, including four additional proved, undeveloped locations, were discovered resulting in a significant increase in proved reserves.  The Company emphasizes that reserve estimates are inherently imprecise and that estimates of reserves related to new discoveries are more imprecise than those for producing oil and gas properties.  Accordingly, the estimates are expected to change as future information becomes available.  The estimates have been prepared with the assistance of an independent petroleum reservoir engineering firm.  The petroleum engineer that determined our reserves also planned and supervised the drilling of wells that we drilled in the East Texas project.  His 2009 and 2008 compensation, from the Company, for the planning and supervision of drilling wells was $66,789 and $347,249, respectively.  The petroleum engineer’s compensation for reserve estimation for that same time period was $16,210 and $22,479, respectively.  Oil reserves, which include condensate and natural gas liquids, are stated in barrels and gas reserves are stated in thousands of cubic feet.

Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flow and Changes Therein Relating to Proved Oil and Gas Reserves

The following table, which presents a standardized measure of discounted future cash flows and changes therein relating to proved oil and gas reserves, is presented pursuant to FASB ASC Topic No. 932.  In computing this data, assumptions other than those required by the FASB could produce different results.  Accordingly, the data should not be construed as being representative of the fair market value of the Company’s proved oil and gas reserves.

Future cash inflows were computed by applying existing contract and 12-month average prices of oil and gas relating to the Company’s proved reserves to the estimated year-end quantities of those reserves.  Future price changes were considered only to the extent provided by contractual arrangements in existence at year end.  Future development and production costs were computed by estimating the expenditures to be incurred in developing and producing the proved oil and gas reserves at the end of the year, based on year-end costs.  Future income tax expenses were computed by applying the year-end statutory tax rate, with consideration of future tax rates already legislated, to the future pre-tax net cash flows relating to the Company’s proved oil and gas reserves.  The standardized measure of discounted future cash flows at December 31, 2009 and 2008, which represents the present value of estimated future cash flows using a discount rate of 10% a year, follows:

ITEM 9.  CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.

None.

ITEM 9A – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

MANAGEMENT’S EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company is collected and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.  The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded, based on their evaluation as of December 31, 2009 that, as a result of the material weaknesses described below, disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective in providing reasonable assurance that material information is made known to them by others within the Company.

MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP.  Management has assessed the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework.  A material weakness, as defined by SEC rules, is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting that were identified are:

a)  
We did not maintain sufficient personnel with an appropriate level of technical accounting knowledge, experience, and training in the application of GAAP commensurate with our complexity and our financial accounting and reporting requirements. We have limited experience in the areas of financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures.  Also, we do not have an independent audit committee.  As a result, there is a lack of monitoring of the financial reporting process and there is a reasonable possibility that material misstatements of the consolidated financial statements, including disclosures, will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis; and

b)  
Due to our small size, we do not have a proper segregation of duties in certain areas of our financial reporting process.  The areas where we have a lack of segregation of duties include cash receipts and disbursements, approval of purchases and approval of accounts payable invoices for payment. This control deficiency, which is pervasive in nature, results in a reasonable possibility that material misstatements of the consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

As a result of the existence of these material weaknesses as of December 31, 2009, management has concluded that we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009, based on the criteria set forth by COSO.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC.

Changes to Internal Controls and Procedures Over Financial Reporting

Our internal control over financial reporting has been modified during our most recent year by adding additional advisors to address deficiencies in the financial closing, review and analysis process, which has improved our internal control over financial reporting, but has not been enough for us to have effective internal controls.
 
 
31

 

 
Management’s Remediation Plans

We are committed to improving our financial organization. As part of this commitment, we will look to increase our personnel resources and technical accounting expertise within the accounting function by the end of 2010 to resolve non-routine or complex accounting matters. In addition, when funds are available, which we expect to occur by the end of 2010, we will take the following action to enhance our internal controls: Hiring additional knowledgeable personnel with technical accounting expertise to further support our current accounting personnel, which management estimates will cost approximately $100,000 per annum. We currently engage an outside accounting firm to assist us in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. As necessary, we will engage consultants in the future in order to ensure proper accounting for our consolidated financial statements.

Management believes that hiring additional knowledgeable personnel with technical accounting expertise will remedy the following material weakness: insufficient personnel with an appropriate level of technical accounting knowledge, experience, and training in the application of GAAP commensurate with our complexity and our financial accounting and reporting requirements.

Management believes that the hiring of additional personnel who have the technical expertise and knowledge with the non-routine or technical issues we have encountered in the past will result in both proper recording of these transactions and a much more knowledgeable finance department as a whole. Due to the fact that our internal accounting staff consists solely of a Chief Financial Officer, additional personnel will also ensure the proper segregation of duties and provide more checks and balances within the department. Additional personnel will also provide the cross training needed to support us if personnel turn over issues within the department occur. We believe this will greatly decrease any control and procedure issues we may encounter in the future.

2.  
Mr. Sudderth’s salary consists of $112,500 paid and $112,500 accrued during both 2009 and 2008.

The employment agreements with each of our executive officers were not tied to specific performance goals or company targets because we were a relatively new operating company at the time each executive officer’s agreement was negotiated. Our negotiation of the employment agreements was highly dependent on our cash flow projections and, in fact, both Michael Neufeld and Bill L. Sudderth are currently only receiving half of their agreed-upon salary.  The remaining portion is being accrued and will be paid at a later date when our cash flow increases.

Employment Agreements with Executive Officers

The material terms of each Executive Officer’s services agreement or arrangement is as follows:
 
Each of Michael Neufeld, Bill Sudderth and Richard Lindermanis has entered into an employment agreement with us.  Each of these agreements is substantially similar.  They have a term of three years, commencing May 1, 2007.  Mr. Neufeld will be paid an annual salary of $250,000, Mr. Sudderth $225,000 and Mr. Lindermanis will be paid $210,000.  Each person may be entitled to a bonus at the discretion of the Board of Directors.  Each person may be terminated for cause, which under the terms of the agreements is defined as:

·
The employee having, in the reasonable judgment of the Company, committed an act which if prosecuted and resulting in a conviction would constitute a fraud, embezzlement, or any felonious offense (specifically excepting simple misdemeanors not involving acts of dishonesty and all traffic violations);
·
The employee’s theft, embezzlement, misappropriation of or intentional and malicious infliction of damage to the Company’s property or business opportunity;
·
the employee’s repeated abuse of alcohol, drugs or other substances as determined by an independent medical physician; or
·
the employee’s engagement in gross dereliction of duties, refusal to perform assigned duties consistent with his position, his knowing and willful breach of any material provision of their agreements continuing after written notice from the Company or repeated violation of the Company’s written policies after written notice.
 
 
35

 

 
Each of the agreements contains standard non-disclosure and prohibits the employee from competing with the Company in its territory for a period of two years following the termination of employment for any reason.  For purposes of the employment agreement, the territory consists of all land at any time held under lease by PERC (or its affiliates) for mineral exploration or development and all surrounding land within two miles from any leased land.

As of December 31, 2009, there had been no equity awards made to any of the Named Executive Officers.

ITEM 13.  CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE.

Except as disclosed below, there have been no transactions, or proposed transactions, which have materially affected or will materially affect us in which any director, executive officer or beneficial holder of more than 5% of the outstanding common stock, or any of their respective relatives, spouses, associates or affiliates, has had or will have any direct or material indirect interest. We have no policy regarding entering into transactions with affiliated parties.

Effective January 1, 2007, PERC, entered into a five-year lease agreement with Marion Swamp Fox L.P. providing for (i) the lease to PERC of 34 acres of storage facilities and (ii) use of office space.  On July 1, 2008 the lease for office space was amended to include additional office space and the lease payments were increased from $750 per month to $4,500 per month for the remaining term.  The 34 acre storage facility has lease payments of $1,500 per month plus $0.05 per barrel of water injected into the facility.  The total lease payments over the entire term of the lease equals $202,500.  Marion Swamp Fox LP is owned by Messrs. Neufeld, Sudderth and Lindermanis, each an executive officer of the Company.

POI, TR Rodessa, and 59 Disposal, had each executed a promissory note dated May 21, 2007, payable to Teton, an entity owned by Messrs. Neufeld and Sudderth, each an executive officer of the Company, in the original principal amount of $5,579,847.  The note evidences the combined total of prior working capital loans Teton made to PERC and its subsidiaries over the previous two years.  The note accrues interest at eight percent (8%) per annum. Additional funds totaling $1,095,000 were added to the note during 2009.  Accrued interest and principal is due on the notes maturity date of May 21, 2010.  Under the terms of a memorandum of understanding dated May 21, 2007, between the Company and Teton, Teton has the right to convert that original amount into shares of common stock at any time after May 21, 2008 at $1.20 per share.  An amendment to the promissory note was executed on March 3, 2009 that gave Teton the right to convert the additional funds into shares of common stock at $1.60 per share. The largest aggregate amount of principal outstanding during 2009 was $5,952,303 (See Note 7).  Interest expense on the note during 2009 was $451,768.

On October 14, 2009, PERC executed a promissory note payable to Teton that would allow the Company to receive up to $1,000,000.  As of December 31, 2009, PERC had received $400,000 related to this note.  A payment for accrued interest of 6.25% per annum on the outstanding principal is due July 1, 2010.  The remaining accrued interest and outstanding principal are due on the maturity date of October 14, 2010.  Interest expense on this note during 2009 was 3,124.
 
In addition, at December 31, 2009 and 2008, we owed TR Energy an amount of $109,576 and $136,494, respectively, in connection with our purchase of a 20% undivided interest in their pipelines and disposal well.  TR Energy is owned by Messrs. Neufeld and Sudderth.
