PART I

ITEM 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
 
HISTORY
 
EGPI Firecreek, Inc. (the “Company”, “EGPI”, “we”, “us” or “our” ) was incorporated in the state of Nevada on October 4, 1995 as Sterling Market Positions, Inc. with 10,000,000 shares of $.001 par value common stock authorized. Effective June 24, 1999, the Company changed its name to Energy Producers, Inc. and increased its authorized common shares to 50,000,000 with a par value of $0.001. The Company’s principal place of business is 6564 Smoke Tree Lane, Scottsdale, AZ 85253.
 
On August 25, 1999, the Company was acquired by Energy Producers Group, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiary, Producers Supply, Inc. The purpose of the acquisition and reverse merger was to become an oil and gas company, and later diversify. The Company focused its business on oil and gas exploration and acquiring existing production with proven reserves.
 
On December 31, 2005 the board of directors of the Company authorized the disposal of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary marine sales segment assets and operations International Yacht Sales Group, Ltd. located in Torquay Devon, United Kingdom.
 
In March 2006 the Company through its wholly owned subsidiary Firecreek Petroleum, Inc, (“Firecreek”), began production and sale of natural gas from completed wells located in Sweetwater County, Wyoming.
 
On December 13, 2006, the Company increased its total authorized capital stock from 980,000,000 shares to 1,300,000,000.
 
On July 1, 2007 the Company through its wholly owned subsidiary Firecreek began production and sale of oil from the Fant Ranch Unit located in Knox County, Texas.

On July 3, 2008 the Company through its wholly owned subsidiary Firecreek began production and sale of oil and gas from the J.B. Tubb leasehold estate located in Ward County, Texas.

Effective on October 8, 2008 the Company affected a one (1) for two hundred (200) reverse stock split whereby, as of the Record Date, for every two hundred shares of common stock then owned, each shareholder received one share of common stock.

On October 30, 2008 the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Firecreek sold its 50% undivided interest in the Ten Mile Draw natural gas leases in Sweetwater County, Wyoming.

On December 2, 2008 as a result of a default notice received October 24, 3008 on Promissory Notes and Debentures held by Dutchess Private Equities Fund, Ltd (“Dutchess”), all of the assets were transferred or disposed of.

On May 18, 2009 The Company entered into a Stock Acquisition Agreement relating to the assignment and sale of Firecreek Petroleum, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“FPI”).

On May 21, 2009 the Company acquired M3 Lighting, Inc. (“M3”) as a wholly owned subsidiary via reverse triangular merger with a subsidiary of the Company. The Company was determined to be the acquirer in the transaction for accounting purposes. M3 principally brings key Management, strategic relationships, and is a distributor of commercial and decorative lighting to the trade and direct to retailers.  As part of the Merger the Company effected a name change for its wholly owned subsidiary Malibu Holding, Inc. to Energy Producers, Inc. (“EPI”) as a conduit for its oil and gas activities, and the Company commenced focusing on two lines of business.

On November 4, 2009 the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of South Atlantic Traffic Corporation, a Florida corporation (“SATCO”). SATCO has been in business since 2001 and has several offices throughout the Southeast United States. SATCO carries a variety of products and inventory geared primarily towards the transportation industry.

On December 31, 2009, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Energy Producers, Inc. acquired 50% working interests and corresponding 32% net revenue interests in oil and gas leases, reserves, and equipment located in Shackelford, Callahan, and Stephens counties, West Central Texas. The Company entered into a turnkey work program included for three wells located on the leases.
 
Overview
 
EGPI Firecreek Inc. was formerly known as Energy Producers, Inc., an oil and gas production company focusing on the recovery and development of oil and natural gas. The Company focused on oil and gas activities for development of interests held that were acquired in Texas and Wyoming for the production of oil and natural gas through December 2, 2008.

Based on our earlier initiation of a program to review domestic oil and gas prospects and targets in fiscal year 2005, we acquired non-operating oil and gas interests in a project under the prospect named Ten Mile Draw (“TMD”) located in Sweetwater County, Wyoming USA for the development and production of natural gas. We commenced with natural gas production beginning approximately March 2006 forward in the TMD. Later on in July, 2007, the Company acquired and began production of oil at the 2,000 plus acre Fant Ranch Unit in Knox County, Texas. We entered a rehabilitation program on the Fant Ranch in January 2008. This was followed by the acquisition and commencement of oil and gas production at the J.B. Tubb Leasehold Estate located in the Amoco Crawar Field in Ward County, Texas in March, 2008. Throughout 2008, the Company sought to continue expansion and growth for oil and gas development in its core projects area. This strategy was centered on rehabilitation and production enhancement techniques, utilizing modern management and technology applications in upgrading certain proven reserves. The Company successfully increased production and revenues derived from its properties and in late 2008, the Company then retired the majority (over 90%) of its debt through the disposition of those improved properties.

In early 2009, based on the continued economic downturn, credit decline, struggling financial markets and the implementation of the federal stimulus package for infrastructure projects, the Company embarked on two lines of business as a strategic plan in part then transitioning from an emphasis on the oil and gas focused business to that of an acquisition strategy focused on the transportation industry serving federal DOT and state/local DOT agencies. In addition, the acquisition targets being reviewed by the Company also had a presence in the telecommunications and general construction industries. The acquisition strategy focuses on vertically integrating manufacturing entities, distributors and construction groups. In May 2009, the Company acquired M3 Lighting Inc. (M3) as the flagship subsidiary with key additional management team to begin this process, and as a result on November 4, 2009, the Company acquired all of the capital stock of South Atlantic Traffic Corporation, a Florida corporation, which distributes a variety of products geared primarily towards the transportation industry where it derives its revenues.
 
Through 2009 we continued our previous decisions to limit and wind down the historical pursuit of our oil and gas projects overseas in Central Asian and European countries. However, in late 2009 and in 2010, the Company began pursuing a reentry to the oil and gas industry and again as part of our strategic plans. The Company is currently a party to a pending agreement to acquire an entity that owns approximately 2,100 miles of a pipeline system initially used as a crude oil transportation system by Koch Industries. As of the date of this report we have not closed this potential acquisition and there can be no assurance we will close on this acquisition. On December 31, 2009, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Energy Producers, Inc., effectively acquired a 50% working interest and corresponding 32% revenue interest in certain oil and gas leases, reserves and equipment located in West Central Texas.

For further information related to the our history please see information in our Form 10K and Form 10KSB Reports, as amended, filed on March 23, 2010, and July 24, 2008, respectively.

On December 31, 2009, the Company through its wholly owned subsidiary Energy Producers, Inc. acquired interests in Oil and Gas Leases (the “Assignment”), along with a Turn Key work program for three wells, from Whitt Oil & Gas, Inc., (“Whitt”) a Texas corporation. We acquired 50% working interests and corresponding 32% net revenue interests in oil and gas leases, reserves, and equipment on 240 Acres in Shackelford, Callahan, and Stephens counties, West Central Texas. For additional information please see our Current Report on Form 8-K, as amended, filed on December 29, 2009 and January 6, 2009. See also additional information listed under the heading “Description of Properties” located in this prospectus and as further listed in this Report in the section on “The Business” or elsewhere in this document.

As of January 15, 2010, the Company entered into a pending agreement to acquire all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Southwest Signal, Inc., a Florida corporation (“SWSC”). Southwest Signal, Inc., was established in 2000 and is engaged in all facets of the United States Intelligent Traffic Systems (ITS) / Department of Transportation (DOT) Industry. The Company also provides services to leading private sector clients such as Wal-Mart, Lowes and Home Depot in addition to large private developers.  Southwest Signal, Inc. also participates in maintenance and general bids for city, county and state funded DOT projects. The corporate headquarters are located in Tampa Florida. For further information please see our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on January  22, 2009, and February 8, 2010,  as amended, and as further listed in this Report in the section on “The Business” or elsewhere in this document.

On March 3, 2010, the Company executed a Stock Purchase Agreement with the stockholders of Redquartz LTD, a company formed and existing under the laws of the country of Ireland.  Redquartz LTD has been in business for 45 years, is known internationally and is our entrance into the European markets with respect to Intelligent Traffic Systems (ITS) and the transportation industry as well as expanding our relationship recently established with Cordil, Inc. for the products sold by South Atlantic Traffic, Inc. (SATCO), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. For further information please see our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on March 11, 2010,  and as provided elsewhere in this document. The unit purchased by the Company has no assets and will result in additional debt burden to the Company.
 
The Company has been making presentations to asset-based lenders and other financial institutions for the purpose of (i) expanding and supporting our growth potential by development of its new line of operations for M3, and SATCO, or acquisitions by the Company that are vertically related to M3, and SATCO, such as SWSC and (ii) building new infrastructure for its oil and gas operations in 2009. The Company throughout its first quarter of operations for 2010 has been pursuing projects for acquisition and development of select targeted oil and gas proved producing properties with revenues, having upside potential and prospects for enhancement, rehabilitation, and future development. These prospects are primarily located in Eastern Texas, and in other core areas of the Permian Basin.

The Company’s goal is to rebuild our revenue base and cash flow; however, the Company makes no guarantees and can provide no assurances that it will be successful in these endeavors.  

THE BUSINESS
 
The Company beginning May 20, 2009 has been building and integrating two line segments of operations and facilitating plans including i) development and redeployment of our oil and gas infrastructure which we are currently focused on building our oil and gas operations domestically, and,  ii) generating business geared to Department of Transportation (DOT) application including Intelligent Lighting Systems (ITS)  inventory and systems sales to DOT and also distribution of commercial decorative lighting to the trade and direct to retailers.

Oil and Gas Units (line segment of operations) Transitioning Stage

Our goal through this line of business is to become an independent oil and gas company engaged in the exploration, development and exploitation of crude oil and natural gas properties primarily in the United States. We have focused our activities on projects based in i) the Permian Basin areas of Texas, and ii) surrounding States and regions in the U.S. for activities related to oil and gas production, and related business and other opportunities.  

Our business and our ability to acquire mineral rights, targeted rehabilitation projects with upside potential, and participate in drilling activities are due primarily to the relationships we have developed over the years with our operating partners, and key industry advisors.  We believe our competitive advantage lies in our ability to locate good potential oil and gas property acquisitions, resource plays, and other business opportunities and interests located primarily in Texas and surrounding States.

Acquisition of 50% Oil and Gas Working Interests, Callahan, Stephens, and Shakelford Counties, Texas, Three Well Program

Effective December 31, 2009, the Company through its wholly owned subsidiary Energy Producers, Inc. closed an Acquisition Agreement including an Assignment of Interests in Oil and Gas Leases (the “Assignment”), with Whitt Oil & Gas, Inc., (“Whitt”) a Texas corporation acquiring 50% working interests and corresponding 32% net revenue interests in oil and gas leases representing the aggregate total of 240 acre leases, reserves, three wells, and equipment located in Callahan, Stephens, and Shakelford Counties, West Central Texas.

Purchase and Work Program Costs Associated With Our Acquired Interests in the Texas, Three Well Program

Pursuant to the Assignment, the Company paid to Whitt the total of two hundred twenty five thousand ($225,000) dollars for the leases, equipment, and a turnkey work program included for three wells located on the leases. Of the $225,000 we have allocated $163,500 for the leases and $61,500 for the existing equipment according to our share.

Whitt Oil and Gas, Inc. is the operator for the Company’s non operated interests and has commenced with work programs to rehabilitate the three wells which began in January 2010 with the goal to restore production and be online as soon as possible. The Assignment through closing is less all credited taxes including State, County, and or other due and owing by Whitt through the oil transfer effective date of December 1, 2009 to the Company.  Operations upon the transfer effective date will be handled by an Operating Agreement between the Company and Whitt.

The rehabilitation and enhancement programs include well repairs followed by frac treatment for each well, namely the McWhorter No. 1 Well with perforations in the Bend Conglomerate Formation at 4,060 to 4,068 feet, the Young No. 3 Well to produce at 2,530 feet depth in the Palo Pinto Lime, and the Boyett Well, to produce in the Caddo Lime at approximately 3,400 feet. For additional information please see our Current Report on Form 8-K, as amended, filed on December 29, 2009 and January 6, 2009. See also additional information listed under the heading “Description of Properties”, “Supplemental Oil and Gas Information” and listed in “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements” further in this Report.

The Material terms of the Operating Agreement with the Company include
 
Pursuant to the AAPL form operating agreement Whitt is an independent contractor and operates the subject properties on a contract basis for our share of Working Interests (50%). Whitt will furnish the monthly Lease Operation Expense and various activity reports to the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Energy Producers, Inc. Upon successful commencement of production, run checks (payments) expected from future sales of oil and gas are to be sent to the operator from the purchasers for oil and gas produced. Conoco is initially designated as the gatherer for the oil and Taurus for the natural gas.  Whitt is to administrate monthly activities, and after payment of management, consulting, and lease-operating expenses (LOE’s), Whitt will collect and compile the Joint Interest Billing (JIB) Statements and prepares those certain reports and financial statements related to production income and expenses for monthly delivery to Company’s accounting for compilation along with its share of the payment to be received according to its interests.
 
Pending Acquisition of Sierra Pipeline, LLC

As of December 18, 2009, the Company entered into an agreement (the “Sierra Agreement”) with Mr. Don Tyner (“Seller”) to acquire all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Sierra Pipeline, LLC, a Nevada limited liability Company (“Sierra”). If acquired, the Company, through Sierra, will own approximately 2100 miles of a pipeline system that was initially installed and used as a crude oil transportation system by Koch Industries (the “Sierra Pipeline”).  There are no known environmental issues with the pipeline system.  The rights of way and easements associated with the asset have been recorded in each of the applicable county courthouses. As of the date of this report we have not closed on this acquisition and there is significant doubt that we will close on this acquisition.

Purchase Costs Relative to the Pending Acquisition of Sierra Pipeline, LLC

The Company issued 2,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to the member(s) of Sierra in connection with the acquisition which are to be registered on a best efforts basis. The estimated fair value of the shares has been determined by management to be $250,000. Unless mutually agreed in writing, the agreement contemplates a March 5, 2010 closing of the transaction. A (i) $2,500,000 cash payment and (ii) 2,500,000 additional shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Closing Shares”) are due from the Company on the closing date if not earlier terminated by the Company on or before March 1, 2010, or the Seller on or before March 4, 2010, in accordance with a recent second extension granted. The Company has not yet closed the transaction and remains on a day to day basis, extended until closed or terminated by the seller. We are in the process of reviewing verbal and written financing arrangements, with no assurance as of yet we will be able to obtain satisfactory arrangements for financing our acquisition of Sierra, or if we do it will be timely. The Company and Seller have verbally agreed to continue in good faith but to notify one another if our intent is to withdraw or Seller wishes to terminate. The Company upon a closing of the transaction, if any, is obligated to use its best efforts to issue and register the Closing Shares as described above.  Given the substantial doubt that exists regarding our completion of this acquisition, the shares granted have been expensed during the period ended December 31,2009.

About the Sierra Pipeline, LLC, Pending Acquisition, and Business Plans

The Company, if successful in closing this transaction, plans to utilize the pipeline assets to gather natural gas, develop gas production in adjoining areas along the pipelines, and develop other opportunities within the approximate 2,100 miles of right-of-ways.

The right of way and easements associated with the Sierra Pipeline have a significant footprint and, if the Sierra Agreement closes, may create intangible value for the Company through its newly acquired subsidiary. Other known transportation companies have acquired and recompleted idle wellbores, transported gas, divested idle segments of pipeline and rights of way and divested pipelines and/or production operations.  The Company believes that, through Sierra and other acquisition targets, it may be able to execute on one or more of these business strategies.

The pipeline gathering system is located throughout Northeastern and Central Oklahoma where most of the lines are concentrated, as well as, in Southeast Kansas, and Southwestern Indiana states. The pipeline gathering system consists of pipeline ranging in size from 2” up to 12” in diameter.

According to various data and third party reports, there are currently thousands of existing well bores and/or wells adjacent to the pipeline gathering system. The wells may be candidates for transportation agreements to transport the gas to major buyers such as Williams, ONEOK, and Mustang, all of whom operate pipelines which cross the Sierra pipeline gathering system at various locations. There may also be opportunities for outright purchases of the well bores and/or wells that could potentially enhance the overall value of the pipeline gathering system. Additionally, the pipeline gathering system is located in a prime geographical area for new shallow natural gas wells to be drilled. The footprint of this pipeline offers an excellent opportunity to have transportation available for newly developed gas reserves. The area in Northeast Oklahoma near this pipeline system has been very productive of coal bed methane gas for many years. The most cost effective method of extracting these reserves has been the recompletion of older idle wellbores versus newly drilled wells. The coal seams in this area are shallow (less than 1500’) and the success rates have been excellent. Sierra has approximately 778 miles of pipe in Creek, Nowata, Tulsa, and Washington Counties in Oklahoma. Based on independent review, there are over 27,000 idle wellbores in these 4 counties. There may also be conventional gas reserves to be developed in this area as well. In addition to the potential for recompletion of idle wellbores the Company will look at a segment of its operations for the development of business related to third party gas transportation. Part of the initial development work will be to identify these opportunities. Other potential Pipeline business activities will be related to divestment of idle segments of the gathering system. There should be opportunities to resell portions of the system to third parties. Another initial task on this project would be to identify other midstream companies with assets in proximity to this system. Further down the road there are potentials, once sizable cash flow is developed, to sell this project. According to information we have collected, a very similar company had only activated 430 miles of their system when they sold to a larger purchaser for $95MM and this did not include any production. The annual multiples of cash flow paid for these pipeline systems run from 6 to 10 years, normally. There are also other opportunities for another business development plan to explore farming out the production play to a larger producer once the acreage is acquired.

New policies as well as the environmental push for vehicles and businesses to run on compressed natural gas (CNG) may cause natural gas prices to increase which could in turn stimulate increases in domestic production and exploration.

Competition for natural gas supplies is based primarily on the location of gas gathering facilities and gas processing plants, operation efficiency and reliability, and the ability to obtain a satisfactory price for products recovered. Competitive factors include availability of capacity, proximity to supply and industry marketing centers, cost efficiency and reliability of service, Competitors include: other large natural gas gatherers that gather, process and market natural gas and major integrated oil companies; medium and large sized independent exploration and production companies; major interstate and intrastate pipelines; and large number of smaller gas gatherers of varying financial resources and experience.

The pipeline gathering system, we believe, is competitive and marketable with other comparable properties in the marketplace. Through research and data collected it is reasoned that a pipeline as extensive as the Sierra Pipeline would require marketing and exposure of 12 to 18 months to establish its fair value premise and its potentials.

For additional information please see our Current Report on Form 8-K, filed on December 29, 2009.

The Company makes no guarantees and can provide no assurances that it will be successful in acquiring the Sierra Pipeline, LLC interests, or if it is able to acquire the Sierra interests that it will be successful in these endeavors.

Competition

The oil and gas industry is highly competitive. As a new independent domestic producer entering the oil and gas business, the Company will not initially own and may never own any refining or retail outlets and may have little control over the price it will receive for planned crude oil production. Although management has established relationships in its proposed acquisition activities, significant competition by individual producers and operators or major oil companies exists. Integrated and independent companies and individual producers and operators are active bidders for desirable oil and gas properties. Many of these competitors have greater financial resources than the Company currently has now or may have in the near future.

Sales and Marketability

Oil and Gas Working Interests, Three Well Program, Callahan, Stephens, and Shakelford Counties, West Central Texas

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.  We rely on our operating partner to market and sell our production.  Our operating partner Whitt Oil and Gas, Inc. is a privately owned exploration and production company.  We do not believe the loss of any single operator would have a material adverse effect on our Company
 as a whole.

Historically the marketability of the Company’s crude oil has not posed a problem for us.  Crude oil can be easily sold wherever it is produced in the state(s) that the Company operates subject to the transportation cost. For example, the crude oil produced by the Company via certain of its oil and gas interests which were disposed of on December 2, 2008 had been transported by truck.  During 2010 we will again expect to commence sales of oil via truck and via pipeline for natural gas. Overall, natural gas can be considered more difficult to sell since transportation requires a pipeline.  In some of the areas that the Company has previously pursued or expects to pursue new drilling activity for natural gas in the future, there can be delays because of the unavailability of a pipeline. No assurance can be given that natural gas wells drilled by the Company, if any, will be placed on line in a timely manner after the well is drilled and completed.

TMD Project, Wyoming

Through its Disposition, October 30, 2008

The Company through its then Firecreek unit commenced selling natural gas during 2006 through the interests it held in the leases, wells, and equipment in the TMD. A Gas Purchase Agreement was entered into November 11, 2005 by Emerald Operating Company (“Emerald”) as “Producer”, and Western Gas Resources, Inc. (“Western”). Effective January 1, 2006, Newport, the Company’s Operator for its interests in the TMD Project and Western, signed a Ratification Agreement, adopting the Gas Purchase Agreement as the agreement between them covering gas purchases, pursuant to which Newport became the “Producer”. Newport is the operating partner for our non operated interests owned in the TMD. The Gas Purchase Agreement had a term of three years, continuing thereafter until either party gives written notice of termination at least thirty days prior to the expiration of the primary term or any extension of the primary term. Payments relative to the Company’s receipt from Newport, based on Gas received to the pipeline were estimated to be a standard 45-60 days following monthly settlement and calculation by Western. The British Thermal Unit (BTU) content of our gas produced in the TMD workover wells tested above standard. Through Newport we were entitled to receive bonus payment adjustment increase for sales of gas, less gathering fees, as applicable, in accordance with the then terms and calculations of the Gas Purchase Agreement. Prices paid by Western accordingly were adjusted for a BTU content of each zone as well as the liquids revenue received. The Company believes it had no commitment that obligated us to produce any set amount of natural gas.
 
Fant Ranch Unit, Texas

Through its Disposition, December 2, 2008
 
The Company received, through December 2, 2008, its monthly payment for the Fant Units production of oil in Knox County, Texas by division order with BML Inc. to Success Oil Co., Inc. BML purchases all of the Companys crude oil pertaining to its interests owned based on a month-to-month contract, which could then be terminated upon thirty (30) days notice by either party. A division order is a contract for the sale of oil, by the holder of a revenue interest in well or property, to the purchaser.  It lists the names of revenue interest owners of a producible oil well or wells, along with the respective share of production revenues, and directs the purchaser to distribute the proceeds of production sales, accordingly. The Company received according to its interests for the oil sold to BML, through December 2, 2008, the average of the Plains price for the oil in for the month sold, adjusted by Platt pricing, less a transportation cost for the oil of $1.75 per barrel. The Company had no commitment that obligated us to produce any set amount of oil.  

Wyoming Regulations

Any oil undertaking within the State of Wyoming requires obtaining the necessary permits and approvals from the Wyoming Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (“WOGCC”). Once a lease is obtained, an operator’s agreement must be on file with the WOGCC. In addition, federal regulations including those governed by the Environmental Protection Agency must be strictly followed (see additional discussion addressing the regulatory environment governing oil & gas drilling and production found under “Business Risks”; “Governmental Regulation”). We believe our operator Newport has obtained all necessary permits to operate the two workover wells associated with the Company’s interests in TMD project held by Firecreek prior to October 30, 2008.

Texas Regulations
 
Any oil undertaking with the State of Texas requires obtaining necessary permits and approvals from the Railroad Commission of Texas (“RRC”). Once a lease is obtained an operator’s agreement must be on file with the RRC.  Federal regulations including those governed by the Environmental Protection Agency must also be strictly followed (see additional discussion addressing the regulatory environment governing oil & gas drilling and production found under “Business Risks”; “Governmental Regulation”). We believe our operators through the date of this Report, both previous and current, have obtained and or filed all necessary permits and reports to operate the wells and maintain compliance associated with the Company’s interests in Fant Ranch Unit, and J.B. Tubb Leasehold Estate held by Firecreek prior to December 3, 2008, and thereafter though our Energy Producers, Inc. subsidiary via our acquisition of the Whitt Oil and Gas, Inc. three well program interests on December 31, 2009 forward.  

Financial Information about Segments and Geographic Areas

We have not segregated our operations into geographic areas given the fact that all of our proposed production activities for closed transactions to date occur within the Permian Basin of West Central Texas.

Future Development Contemplated,

J.B. Tubb Leasehold Estate, AMOCO CRAWAR FIELD, Ward County, Texas

As part of the disposition of its assets the Company and Dutchess entered into an Oil and Gas Property Participation and Rights Agreement (“Participation Agreement”), whereby Dutchess granted EGPI, under certain circumstances listed therein the participation agreement, a right of first refusal, as provided in Section VIII of that certain participation agreement between Success Oil Co. and EGPI and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Firecreek Petroleum, Inc., dated January 3, 2008.

Entry and Eventual Stability In The Oil And Gas Business Will Be Dependent Largely On Our Ability To Acquire Significant Financing Amounts
 
The Company’s entry and eventual stability in the oil and gas business will be dependent largely on our ability to continuously acquire significant financing amounts, and other potential financing providers, to carry out and implement its plans (see “Management Discussion and Analysis”, “Business Risks”, and “Liquidity and Capital Resources” sections).
 
The Company and its Energy Producers, Inc. unit are presently in different stages of review and discussion, gathering data and information, and any available reports on other potential field acquisitions, work over programs, and new drilling projects, located in Texas, Louisiana, New Mexico, and other productive regions and areas in the U.S. However, no assurances can be given by the Company that will be successful in pursuing these other prospects.
 
Successful negotiations for acquisitions, confidentiality, timing and the Company’s financial capabilities will continue to play a significant role in any success of both current and future operations for the Company activities, including its subsidiary operations, and or any future planned subsidiary or special purpose entity (SPE) operations which in the future may exist.
 
From time to time Management will examine oil and gas operations in other geographical areas for potential acquisition and joint venture development.

With a sales representative in China and offices in the U.S., the M3 team through this footprint, as required, can effectively monitor price competition, expediting product shipments and grow the business through sales.  M3 can import both finished goods and sub-assemblies for domestic final assembly. Through its experience, knowledge and contacts in the lighting and DOT industry, M3 created a business plan to create a vertical rollup and stream of acquisitions targeted strategically for the Company that included manufactures, distributors and contractors. This change in strategy allowed the management and key decision makers at M3 more time to focus on potential acquisitions who they had done business with for numerous years. Focusing on the Obama Infrastructure Stimulus funding that is being released for roadwork throughout the country; M3 is pursing companies that are involved in the lighting, traffic signs/signals and ITS components of the industry.  M3 is also actively pursuing federal contracts to provide lighting and contracting through our partnership with CST Federal who are a disabled veteran’s agency that bids government contracts.  Future acquisitions in the DOT construction industry are expected to provide a labor force for the maintenance and remediation services the Company plans on providing.  Further information can be found along with copy of the Plan of Merger attached as an exhibit to our Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Commission on May 27, 2009, as amended. Amendment No. 1 and No. 2 to the May 27, 2009 current Report on Form 8-K were filed on June 24 and August 4, 2009, respectively.

A copy of the Agreement was attached as an exhibit to our Current Report filed with the Commission on November 12, 2009.The acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). Under the purchase method of accounting, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141(R), Business Combinations, the assets and liabilities of SATCO are recorded as of the acquisition date at their respective fair values, and consolidated with the Company’s assets and liabilities.

Purchase Costs for the Acquisition of South Atlantic Traffic, Inc. (SATCO)

The acquisition was effected via a stock purchase agreement between Satco and EGPI. In the course of this acquisition, Satco stockholders exchanged all outstanding common shares for $600,000 cash consideration, 2,908,000 EGPI common shares with and a contingent equity make whole liability provision valued at $1,163,220, and $295,173 in notes to the sellers’ all together in the aggregate totaling $2,058,373. For the cash consideration paid to SATCO, SATCO and the Company by its further entry into a Continuing Guarantee and Waiver, entered into an accounts receivable based credit facility (Loan) (also known as Factor and Security Agreement) with Creative Capital Associates, Inc., Silver Spring Maryland (proposal and term sheet), in conjunction with Benefactor Funding Corp. a Colorado corporation (factor lender). This factoring line has been paid off,  retired and cancelled prior to the date of this Report. The Company is actively seeking replacement accounts receivable line of credit for SATCO which is important for the growth of this unit.

The Business of SATCO

SATCO carries a variety of products and inventory geared primarily towards the transportation industry, which generated over $15 million in revenues for 2008. SATCO offers a comprehensive selection of transportation products ranging from loop sealant, traffic signal equipment, traffic and light poles, data/video systems and ITS surveillance systems.. SATCO works closely with DOT agencies, local traffic engineers, contractors, and consultants to customize high quality traffic control systems.
 
11

 
 SATCO’s representatives have 120 years of collective experience distributing traffic products throughout the Southeastern U.S. The company’s success in the industry is a direct result of SATCO’s dedication to providing quality products, at competitive prices, with service after the sale. In addition, SATCO’s ongoing relationships within the traffic industry allow the company to procure and provide specialty items on an as needed basis.
 
SATCO has recently entered into an exclusive Distributor Agreement with a manufacturer of industrial wireless data radio modem communication networks with optional embedded GPS radio location monitoring technologies. SATCO has also entered into a distribution agreement with a company that manufactures spun concrete poles, high quality decorative outdoor lighting fixtures, fabricated metal poles, arms, and site furnishings. The additional lines will augment and align with SATCOs existing products offering of traffic and intelligent transportation products currently represented.

SATCO maximizes it efficiency in delivering quality products to valued customers by implementing various distribution strategies and capitalizing on developed relationships within the transportation industry. One of the distribution strategies implemented is SATCO’s concentration on an exclusive region – Southeastern United States. Focusing on a specific region to operate within the industry allows SATCO to maintain a smaller sales staff, consequently reducing overhead while at the same time fostering a more personalized relationship with its customers. To further reinforce SATCO’s reputation as a trusted and experienced distributor of top-quality products in the transportation industry, the management team of SATCO has pursued and executed agreements with multiple manufacturers of top-line transportation, signalization and lighting products to operate as the exclusive distributor of those products in our respective region. SATCO was able to position itself in this manner due to key relationships that SATCO’s management team has developed throughout its extensive experience within the industry. In addition, SATCO follows up with personalized customer service on each order to ensure that the needs of its customers and vendors is met.

Due to the personal nature of these business relationships between SATCO’s management team and several other businesses in the transportation industry, SATCO believes it is able to competitively negotiate pricing with its vendors and keep costs down. At the same time, SATCO capitalizes on those same relationships with customers who value SATCO’s performance and unmatched customer service at a premium. This helps increase margins and profitability, and allows SATCO to operate at a very competitive level within the industry while constantly positioning itself for future growth.

Entry and Eventual Stability In The Signalization and Lighting Units, Geared to the Transportation Industry (DOT and ITS) Will Be Dependent Largely On Our Ability To Acquire Significant Financing Amounts
 
The Company’s entry and eventual stability in the lighting, signalization, and transportation industry segment of operations geared to DOT and ITS business will be dependent largely on our ability to continuously acquire significant financing amounts, and other potential financing providers, to carry out and implement its plans (see “Management Discussion and Analysis”, “Business Risks”, and “Liquidity and Capital Resources” sections).
 
The Company and its M3, SATCO, and Redquartz units, and other unit(s) pending, are presently in different stages of review and discussion, gathering data and information, and any available reports on other potential acquisitions, and targeted roll up candidates, in the U.S. and overseas in Europe. However, no assurances can be given by the Company that will be successful in pursuing and closing these other candidates or activities.
 
Successful negotiations for acquisitions, confidentiality, timing and the Company’s financial capabilities will continue to play a significant role in any success of both its current and future operations for the Company activities, including its subsidiary operations, and or any future planned subsidiary or special purpose entity (SPE) operations which in the future may exist.


RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS
 
We incurred historical losses and have a working capital deficit. As a result, we may not be able to generate profits, support our operations, or establish a return on invested capital.
 
We had a net loss on continuing operations in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 of $53,408,479 and a net gain on continuing operation in fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 of $1,145,717. As of December 31, 2009, we had a working capital deficit of $3,041,776. In addition, we expect to increase our infrastructure and operating expenses to fund our anticipated growth. As a result, we may not be able to generate profits in 2010 or thereafter and may not be able to support our operations or otherwise establish a return on invested capital. We cannot assure you that any of our business strategies will be successful or that significant revenues or profitability will ever be achieved or, if they are achieved, that they can be consistently sustained or increased on a quarterly or annual basis.
 
13

 
We Expect Our Operating Losses To Continue
 
The Company expects to incur increased operating expenses during fiscal year 2010. The amount of net losses and the time required for the Company to reach and sustain profitability are uncertain. The likelihood of the Company’s success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, and delays frequently encountered in connection with a new business, including, but not limited to, uncertainty as to development and acquisitions and the time required for the Company’s planned production to become available in the marketplace. There can be no assurance that the Company will ever generate increased product revenue or achieve profitability at all or on any substantial basis.
 
Our Level Of Indebtedness May Affect Our Business.
 
Our level of indebtedness could have important consequences for our operations, including:
 
We may need to use a large portion of our cash flow to repay principal and pay interest on our current and anticipated debt, which will reduce the amount of funds available to finance our operations and other business activities;
 
Our debt level may make us vulnerable to economic downturns and adverse developments in our businesses and markets; and
 
Our debt level may limit our ability to pursue other business opportunities, borrow money for operations or capital expenditures in the future or implement our business strategy.

We expect to obtain the funds to pay our expenses and to pay principal and interest on our debt by utilizing cash flow from operations. Our ability to meet these payment obligations will depend on our future financial performance, which will be affected by financial, business, economic and other factors. We will not be able to control many of these factors, such as economic conditions in the markets in which we operate. We cannot be certain that our future cash flow from operations will be sufficient to allow us to pay principal and interest on our debt and meet our other obligations. If cash flow from operations is insufficient, we may be required to refinance all or part of our existing debt, sell assets, and borrow more money or issue additional equity.
 
We have a limited amount of cash and are likely to require additional capital to continue our operations.
 
We have a limited amount of available cash and will likely require additional capital to successfully implement our business plan; There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional funding when needed, or that such funding, if available, will be obtainable on terms acceptable to us. In the event that our operations do not generate sufficient cash flow, or we cannot obtain additional funds if and when needed, we may be forced to curtail or cease our activities, which would likely result in the loss to investors of all or a substantial portion of their investment.

Production Risks

All of the Company’s current and proposed oil and gas activities would be subject to the risks normally incident to the exploration for, and development and production of, natural gas and crude oil. These include, but are not limited to, blowouts, cratering and fires, each of which could result in damage to life and property. In accordance with customary industry practices, the Company plans to maintain future insurance for its proposed operations against some, but not all, of the risks. Losses and liabilities arising from such events could reduce revenues and increase costs to the Company to the extent not covered by insurance.
 
Risks And Uncertainties Can Impact Our Growth
 
There are several risks and uncertainties, including those relating to the Company’s ability to raise money and grow its business and potential difficulties in integrating new acquisitions for the oil and gas sector of operations, especially as they pertain to foreign markets and market conditions. These risks and uncertainties can materially affect the results predicted. Other risks include the Company’s limited operating history, the limited financial resources, domestic or global economic conditions, activities of competitors and the presence of new or additional competition, and changes in federal or state laws and conditions of equity markets.
 
The Company’s future operating results over both the short and long term will be subject to annual and quarterly fluctuations due to several factors, some of which are outside the control of the Company. These factors include but are not limited to fluctuating market demand for our services, and general economic conditions.
 
Governmental Regulation
 
Effect of Probable Governmental Regulation on the Business Domestically and in Foreign Countries
 
As we expand our efforts to develop our business, we will have to remain attentive to relevant federal and state regulations. We intend to comply fully with all laws and regulations, and the constraints of federal and state restrictions could impact the success of our efforts.
 
Our oil and gas business and services may become established in multiple states and foreign countries. These jurisdictions may claim that we are required to qualify to do business as a foreign corporation in each such state and foreign country. New legislation or the application of laws and regulations from jurisdictions in this area could have a detrimental effect upon our business. We cannot predict the impact, if any, that future regulatory changes or developments may have on our business, financial condition, or results of operation.
 
14

 
The Company and its current and future operations are subject to federal, state and local laws, and regulations and ordinances relating to the production and sale of oil and gas. Some of the laws that the Company is subject to include the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act, and the Endangered Species Act. Other laws and regulations include laws governing allowable rates of production, well spacing, air emissions, water discharges, marketing, pricing, taxes, and use restrictions and other laws relating to the petroleum industry. For example, coal bed methane wells are being highly regulated for disposing of produced fresh water on the surface. The EPA is requiring that the fresh water meet more stringent standards than before, and can require the water be injected underground making drilling these wells potentially uneconomical. As another example, Governmental regulation may delay drilling in areas that have endangered species. Therefore, if the Company were to undertake a drilling program in such an area by a proposed development project in the future, no assurance could be given that such delays would not become more expensive. Regulations may have a negative financial impact on us depending on the compliance costs.
 
Any failure to obtain, or delays in obtaining regulatory approvals by the Company or its operators, could delay or adversely affect the Company’s ability to generate revenues. These laws and regulations could impose substantial liabilities for the Company if it fails to comply. Further, there can be no assurance that the Company through its contract operators will be able to obtain necessary regulatory approvals for any of its future activities including those which may be proposed for the further development of oil and gas. Although the Company does not anticipate problems satisfying any of the regulations involved, the Company cannot foresee the possibility of new regulations, which could adversely affect the business of the Company.
 
Environmental regulations and taxes imposed by state governments in a jurisdiction wherein oil and gas properties are located impose a burden on the cost of production. Of the gross production revenues, severance and ad valorem taxes in Wyoming for oil and gas amount to approximately 12%.
 
Environmental requirements do have a substantial impact upon the energy industry. Generally, these requirements do not appear to affect the proposed Company operations any differently, or to any greater or lesser extent, than other companies in the domestic industry as a whole. The Company will establish policies and procedures for compliance with environmental laws and regulations affecting its proposed operations. The Company believes that compliance with environmental laws and regulations will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations or financial condition. There can be no assurances, however, that changes in or additions to laws or regulations regarding the protection of the environment will not have such an impact in the future.

 At this time no regulatory or additional regulatory approvals are necessary and, to the best knowledge of the officers, we have complied with all laws, rules and regulations.
 
Cost And Effects Of Compliance With Environmental Laws
 
Our business will be subject to regulation under the state and federal laws regarding environmental protection and hazardous substances control with respect to its current and future oil and gas operations. We are unaware of any bills currently pending in Congress that could change the application of such laws so that they would affect us.
 
Risk Factors Affecting Our Future Results Of Operations For The Company
 
Due to the Company’s limited operating history, it is difficult to predict future revenues accurately. This may result in one or more future quarters where the Company’s financial results may fall below the expectation of management and investors. However firmly management may believe in its prospects, the Company could fail. Operating results may vary, depending upon a number of factors, many of which are outside the Company’s control. Material factors expected to impact the Company’s operating results include, legal costs associated with registration of options and other filing requirements, expansion activities, increased interest and expenses for borrowings and possible hiring of additional full time employees. Every investor should evaluate the risks, uncertainties, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in the early stage of development. The past performance of the Company cannot be used to predict the future performance.
 
Lack Of Experience
 
Certain of our management may only devote a small percentage of their time to Company business. This lack of specific training, and experience for integration of the oil and gas sector coupled with working in the regulatory environment and less than full time effort in certain cases will probably cause management to miss opportunities that more experienced managers would recognize and take advantage of. Management’s decisions and choices may not be well thought out and operations and earnings and ultimate financial success may suffer irreparable harm. Additionally, these individuals have not previously worked together. If senior executives and managers are unable to work effectively as a team, business operations could be considerably disrupted.
 
Oil And Gas Prices Fluctuate Widely, And Low Prices For An Extended Period Of Time Are Likely To Have A Material Adverse Impact On Our Business
 
Our revenues, operating results, financial condition and ability to borrow funds or obtain additional capital depend substantially on prevailing prices for natural gas and, to a lesser extent, oil. Declines in oil and natural gas prices may materially adversely affect our financial condition, liquidity, ability to obtain financing and operating results. Lower oil and gas prices also may reduce the amount of oil and gas that we can produce economically. Historically, oil and gas prices and markets have been volatile, with prices fluctuating widely, and they are likely to continue to be volatile.

15

 
Prices for oil and natural gas are subject to wide fluctuations in response to relatively minor changes in the supply of and demand for oil and gas, market uncertainty and a variety of additional factors that are beyond our control. These factors include:
 
 
·
The domestic and foreign supply of oil and natural gas.
 
 
·
The level of consumer product demand.
 
 
·
Weather conditions.
 
 
·
Political conditions in oil producing regions, including the Middle East.
 
 
·
The ability of the members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries to agree to and maintain oil price and production controls.
 
 
·
The price of foreign imports.
 
 
·
Actions of governmental authorities.
 
 
·
Domestic and foreign governmental regulations.
 
 
·
The price, availability and acceptance of alternative fuels.
 
 
·
Overall economic conditions.
 
These factors make it impossible to predict with any certainty the future prices of oil and gas.  
 
Drilling natural gas and oil wells is a high-risk activity.
 
Our growth is materially dependent upon the success of our drilling program. Drilling for natural gas and oil involves numerous risks, including the risk that no commercially productive natural gas or oil reservoirs will be encountered. The cost of drilling, completing and operating wells is substantial and uncertain, and drilling operations may be curtailed, delayed or cancelled as a result of a variety of factors beyond our control, including:

·
unexpected drilling conditions, pressure or irregularities in formations;
 
·
equipment failures or accidents;
 
·
adverse weather conditions;
 
·
compliance with governmental requirements; and

·
shortages or delays in the availability of drilling rigs or crews and the delivery of equipment.
 
16

 
Our future drilling activities may not be successful and, if unsuccessful, such failure will have an adverse affect on our future results of operations and financial condition. Our overall drilling success rate or our drilling success rate for activity within a particular geographic area may decline. We may ultimately not be able to lease or drill identified or budgeted prospects within our expected time frame, or at all. We may not be able to lease or drill a particular prospect because, in some cases, we identify a prospect or drilling location before seeking an option or lease rights in the prospect or location. Similarly, our drilling schedule may vary from our capital budget. The final determination with respect to the drilling of any scheduled or budgeted wells will be dependent on a number of factors, including:
 
·
the results of exploration efforts and the acquisition, review and analysis of the seismic data
 
·
the availability of sufficient capital resources to us and the other participants for the drilling of the prospects
 
·
the approval of the prospects by other participants after additional data has been compiled
 
·
economic and industry conditions at the time of drilling, including prevailing and anticipated prices for natural gas and oil and the availability of drilling rigs and crews
 
·
our financial resources and results; and
 
·
the availability of leases and permits on reasonable terms for the prospects.
 
These projects may not be successfully developed and the wells, if drilled, may not encounter reservoirs of commercially productive natural gas or oil.

Reserve estimates depend on many assumptions that may prove to be inaccurate. Any material inaccuracies in our reserve estimates or underlying assumptions could cause the quantities and net present value of our reserves to be overstated.

Reserve engineering is a subjective process of estimating underground accumulations of natural gas and crude oil that cannot be measured in an exact manner. The process of estimating quantities of proved reserves is complex and inherently uncertain, and the reserve data included in this document are only estimates. The process relies on interpretations of available geologic, geophysic, engineering and production data. As a result, estimates of different engineers may vary. In addition, the extent, quality and reliability of this technical data can vary. The differences in the reserve estimation process are substantially due to the geological conditions in which the wells are drilled. The process also requires certain economic assumptions, some of which are mandated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, such as natural gas and oil prices. Additional assumptions include drilling and operating expenses, capital expenditures, taxes and availability of funds. The accuracy of a reserve estimate is a function of:

 
·
the quality and quantity of available data;
 
 
·
the interpretation of that data;

 
·
the accuracy of various mandated economic assumptions; and

 
·
the judgment of the persons preparing the estimate.

Results of drilling, testing and production subsequent to the date of an estimate may justify revising the original estimate. Accordingly, initial reserve estimates often vary from the quantities of natural gas and crude oil that are ultimately recovered, and such variances may be material. Any significant variance could reduce the estimated quantities and present value of our reserves.
 
Our future performance depends on our ability to find or acquire additional natural gas and oil reserves that are economically recoverable.
 
In general, the production rate of natural gas and oil properties declines as reserves are depleted, with the rate of decline depending on reservoir characteristics. Unless we successfully replace the reserves that we produce, our reserves will decline, eventually resulting in a decrease in natural gas and oil production and lower revenues and cash flow from operations. Our future natural gas and oil production is, therefore, highly dependent on our level of success in finding or acquiring additional reserves. We may not be able to replace reserves through our exploration, development and exploitation activities or by acquiring properties at acceptable costs. Low natural gas and oil prices may further limit the kinds of reserves that we can develop economically. Lower prices also decrease our cash flow and may cause us to decrease capital expenditures.
 
Exploration, development and exploitation activities involve numerous risks that may result in dry holes, the failure to produce natural gas and oil in commercial quantities and the inability to produce discovered reserves fully. We are continually identifying and evaluating opportunities to acquire natural gas and oil properties. We may not be able to consummate any acquisition successfully, to acquire producing natural gas and oil properties that contain economically recoverable reserves, or to integrate the properties into our operations profitably.
 
17

 
Seasonality
 
Demand for natural gas has historically been seasonal, with peak demand and typically higher prices occurring during the colder winter months.
 
Regulation of Oil and Natural Gas Exploration and Production
 
Exploration and production operations are subject to various types of regulation at the federal, state and local levels. This regulation includes requiring permits to drill wells, maintaining bonding requirements 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 on which wells are drilled, and the plugging and abandoning of wells. Our operations are also subject to various conservation laws and regulations. These include the regulation of the size of drilling and spacing units or proration units, the density of wells that may be drilled in a given field and the unitization or pooling of oil and natural gas properties. Some states allow the forced pooling or integration of tracts to facilitate exploration while other states rely on voluntary pooling of lands and leases. In addition, state conservation laws establish maximum rates of production from oil and natural gas wells, generally prohibiting the venting or flaring of natural gas and impose certain requirements regarding the ratability of production. The effect of these regulations is to limit the amounts of oil and natural gas we can produce from our wells, and to limit the number of wells or the locations where we can drill. Because these statutes, rules and regulations undergo constant review and often are amended, expanded and reinterpreted, we are unable to predict the future cost or impact of regulatory compliance. The regulatory burden on the oil and gas industry increases the cost of doing business and, consequently, affects profitability. We do not believe, however, that we are affected differently by these regulations than others in the industry.
 
We have limited control over the activities on properties we do not operate.
 
Other companies operate some of the properties in which we have an interest. We have limited ability to influence or control the operation or future development of these non-operated properties or the amount of capital expenditures that we are required to fund with respect to them. The failure of an operator of our wells to perform operations adequately, an operator’s breach of the applicable agreements or an operator’s failure to act in ways that are in our best interest could reduce our production and revenues. Our dependence on the operator and other working interest owners for these projects and our limited ability to influence or control the operation and future development of these properties could materially adversely affect the realization of our targeted returns on capital in drilling or acquisition activities and lead to unexpected future costs.
 
Requirement For Additional Capital
 
The Company believes that additional debt or equity financing will be necessary to develop its planned activities through the next twelve to twenty four months. However, no assurance can be given that all or a significant portion of any debt or equity financing will be consummated, or that any changes in the Company’s operations and expansion plans would not consume available resources more rapidly than anticipated. The Company will need substantial funding to support the long-term expansion, development, and marketing of its business and subsidiary operations.
 
To the extent that the Company’s capital resources, including the proceeds of any offering, are insufficient to meet current or planned requirements, the Company will continue to seek additional funds through equity or debt financing, collaborative, or other arrangements with corporate partners, and from other sources, which may have the effect of diluting the holdings of existing shareholders. The Company has no effective or approved current arrangement with respect to such additional financing that is either secured or finalized at this time. Even though the Company has existing prospects for general or project financing, the outcome may change, be delayed, or may not be conclusive, therefore financing is not assured or guaranteed. Financing to be potentially obtained from prospects is not assured or guaranteed until actually consummated and financing actually provided.
 
Need For Expansion
 
The Company expects expansion will be required to address potential growth. This need for expansion will continue to place a significant strain on the management and financial resources of the Company. Failure to manage growth could disrupt the operations and ultimately prevent the Company from generating expected revenues. The Company’s business strategy includes entering into business partnerships and may include acquiring future businesses, such as, existing production or products, technology and acquisitions related to oil and gas or other resources, oil and gas field operations, and engineering. Other areas of future operations may include real estate, land and commercial development, technology and facilities, and fuel cell technology. The Company may be unable to complete suitable business partnerships and acquisitions on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. Competition could impair the Company’s ability to pursue these aspects successfully of this business strategy.
 
Business partnerships or acquisitions could disrupt ongoing business, distract management and employees and increase expenses. If the Company makes an acquisition, it could face difficulties assimilating that company’s personnel and operations. Key personnel of the acquired company may decide not to work for the Company. Acquisition of additional services or technologies also involves risk of incompatibility and lack of integration into existing operations. If the Company finances the acquisitions by issuing equity securities, this could dilute existing stockholders positions. Additionally, funding instruments may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to, or more favorably than, those of the Company’s stockholders.
 
18

 
Limited Financial Data
 
As a result of its limited operating history, the Company has limited historical financial data upon which to forecast revenues and results of operation. The actual effect of these factors on the price of stock will be difficult to assess. Results of operation may fall well below the expectations of securities analysts and investors, and the trading price of the Company’s common stock may drop.

Estimating Inaccuracies
 
There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of proven reserves and in projecting future rates of production and timing of development expenditures, including many factors beyond the control of the Company. Reserve engineering is a subjective process of estimating underground accumulations of crude oil, condensate and natural gas liquids that cannot be measured in an exact manner. The accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of the amount and quality of data and of engineering and geological interpretation. Estimates by different engineers may vary. Results of drilling, testing and production after the date of an estimate may justify revision of such estimates. Reserve estimates are often different from the quantities ultimately recovered including the continual possibility of failure to find oil or gas and the drilling of a dry hole, and concentrations of oil in unexpected differing amounts on certain holes or targets drilled.
 
Declining Reserves

Volumes of proposed oil and gas reserves acquired by the Company will decline as reserves are depleted. Reserve volumes generated from future activities of the Company are highly dependent upon the level of success in acquiring or finding additional reserves.
 
Key Officers Management Services Were Provided By Outside Consulting Firms, And Individuals Contributing Additional Key Officers Management Services, During Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2009and continuing on into 2010.
 
Key management services were provided by outside consulting firms owned by key Officers and/or current Directors, , or through other outside arrangements Such Officers and Directors include Dennis R. Alexander, Chairman, CEO and CFO, Melvena Alexander, Co-Treasurer, Secretary and Comptroller, David H. Ray, Executive Vice President, Director, and Treasurer, Brandon D. Ray, Executive Vice President of Finance and Director. Other key services were provided by four or more, Executive Officers, Directors, consultants and advisors, and various subcontractors, which managed the business of the Company.  These include one or more of the following named Officers or Directors, namely, Larry W. Trapp, Executive Vice President, and Director, Mike Trapp, Director, and as of May 21, 2009, Michael Kocan, President and Director, Robert Miller, Executive Vice President and Director. Accordingly, the loss of the services of any key individual or other person or individual filling a key role from time to time could have an effect on the development of the Company’s business. The Company may hire future employees and additional employees not provided through outside consulting firms, and depend on their services, the loss of which may affect the development of the Company’s business and could adversely affect the conduct of our business. The Company has not applied for key-man life insurance and the Company has not obtained insurance covering the possibility that any of its key officers and management personnel might become disabled or otherwise unable to render services to the Company. The success of the Company is also dependent upon its ability to attract, contract with and retain highly qualified technical, managerial and marketing personnel. The Company faces competition for such personnel from other companies, many of which have significantly greater resources than the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to recruit and retain such personnel.
 
Officers And Directors Beneficially Own And Represent Approximately 29.74% Of the Company’s Issued and Outstanding Common Stock And Have Additional Votes and Voting Power
 
The executive officers and directors of the Company currently beneficially own and represent approximately 29.74% of our outstanding common stock, along with additional votes and voting power through issuance of 5,000 shares of the EGPI Series C Preferred Stock.  As a result these stockholders may, as a practical matter, be able to influence all matters requiring stockholder approval including the election of directors, merger or consolidation and the sale of all or substantially all of our assets.  This concentration of ownership may delay, deter or prevent acts that would result in a change of control, which in turn could reduce the market price of our common stock.
 
Penny Stock As A Risk
 
Definition And Rule Reference: The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 3a51-1 of General Rules and Regulations, Promulgated under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, which established the definition of a “penny stock”, for the purposes relevant to the Company, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require: (i) that broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks; and, (ii) the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.
 
Future sales of our Shares of Common Stocks in the public market could lower our share price.
 
We may sell additional Shares of Common Stock in subsequent offerings. We may also issue additional Shares of Common Stock to finance future acquisitions, including acquisitions larger than those we have done in the past. We cannot predict the size of future issuances of our Shares of Common Stock or the effect, if any, that future issuances and sales of our Shares of Common Stock will have on the market price of our Shares of Common Stock. Sales of substantial amounts of Shares of Common Stock, or the perception that such sales could occur, may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our Shares of Common Stock.
 
19

 
Obligations And Contingencies
 
The Company is liable for future restoration and abandonment costs associated with oil and gas properties owned or newly acquired by the Company. These costs include future site restoration and plugging costs of wells. The cost of future abandonment of producing wells has not been determined the date of this report. Management believes that these costs will not have a material adverse effect upon its financial position or results of operations.

Other

The Company’s corporate parent operations during fiscal year ended 2009 did not retain any employees. Individual consulting firms owned by four key officers/directors along with four or more additional key officers/directors contributing time and effort managed the day-to-day operations of our Company. We have accounting consultants, legal consultants, oil and gas technical team consultants and engineers available for project purposes on a part time basis; one advisor assists us with project evaluations and business development, information and research, technical writing and presentation. The Company will consider full time employees upon sufficient capitalization and cash flow which may include accounting systems and data processing coordinator, oil and gas staff analyst and coordinator, financing officer; assistant to executive officers, and other. Future performance will be substantially dependent on the continued services of management and the ability to retain and motivate them. The loss of the services of any officers or senior managers could affect activities of our business and its operations until additional personnel can be retained and trained to perform some of the management tasks. At the present time the Company does not have long-term employment agreements with any key personnel and does not maintain any life insurance policies.

Oil and Gas Properties, Leases, and Interests

Acquisition of 50% Oil and Gas Working Interests, Callahan, Stephens, and Shakelford Counties, West Central Texas

On December 22, 2009, the Company through its wholly owned subsidiary Energy Producers, Inc. entered into an Agreement for the Assignment of Interests in Oil and Gas Leases (“Assignment”), with Whitt Oil & Gas, Inc., (“Whitt”) a Texas corporation acquiring 50% working interests and corresponding 32% net revenue interests in oil and gas leases, reserves, and equipment. The leases, equipment, and a turnkey work program relate to three wells located on the leases representing the aggregate total of 240 Acres in Shackelford, Callahan, and Stephens counties, West Central Texas. The program also includes the right but not the obligation to drill four more wells in the future. The acquired leases and the property to which they relate are identified below:

1.            That certain Oil, Gas and Mineral Lease dated September 17, 2007, by and between Eugene Bell, Lessor, and E & D Bell, LLC, Lessee and that certain Oil, Gas and Mineral Lease dated September 17, 2007, by and between Harold Elledge, Lessor, and E & D Bell, LLC, Lessee each covering the following two (2) parcels of land in Callahan County, Texas:

Tract I: Being 40 acres as near as is practicable in the form of a square around the LCS Production of McWhorter #1 well, Callahan County, Texas.

21

 
Tract II: Being 40 acres as near as is practicable in the form of a square around the Ratex Energy, Inc. No. 3 Young well, Callahan County, Texas.

2.            Those two certain Oil and Gas Leases dated December 18, 2009, by and between Juanita B. Boyett Trust, Jearl Silas Boyett, Executor, Lessor, and Whitt Oil &. Gas, Inc., Lessee,  to the extent, and to the extent only, that said lease covers all of the Southeast One-fourth (SE/4) of Section 55, B.A.L., A-2746, Stephens and Shackelford Counties, Texas.

The following wells are located on the leases identified, above:

1.            McWhorter No. Well, Texas Lease I.D. 27348, Callahan County, Texas.

2.            Young No. 3 Well, Texas Lease I.D. 26519, Callahan County, Texas.

3.            Boyett Well, Texas, API #42-417-37567, Shackelford County, Texas.

A mineral interest is the ownership of rights to gas, oil, or other minerals as they naturally occur in place, at or below the surface of a tract of land. Ownership of the minerals carries with it the right to make such reasonable use of the surface as may be necessary to explore for and produce the minerals. Only the mineral owner (or fee owner) may execute an oil or gas lease conveying his interest in a tract of land.  Severance:  The owner of all rights to a tract of land (vertically or horizontally).  In horizontal severance, for example, if he chooses to sell all or part of the mineral rights, two distinct estates are created:  the surface rights to the tract of land and the mineral rights to the same tract.  The two estates may change hands independently of each other. Severed minerals rights may be restricted as to mineral type, or limited by depth, (in which case the landowner retains the rights to minerals other than those severed, and to depth intervals other than those severed.)
 
The Company attempts to maintain all of its operating wells in good working condition. Whitt Oil and Gas, Inc. (Whitt) a Texas corporation, and licensed operator, is familiar with the oil and gas business in the area. Whitt will operate the Company’s interests in the properties overseeing production and maintenance activities for its oil wells, equipment and other development activities for the leases.

The Material terms of the Operating Agreement with the Company include:
 
Whitt is an independent contractor and operates the subject properties on a contract basis pursuant to the AAPL form operating agreement according to our share of Working Interests (50%) with a $350 per producing well per month overhead fee and $250.00 pumper fee per well (presently for 3 wells) respectively plus electricity and other intangible repair items.  All other charges whether by Whitt, an affiliate of Whitt or third parties will be the responsibility of the working interest owners of the properties. Whitt will furnish the monthly Lease Operation Expense and various activity reports to the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Energy Producers, Inc. Upon successful commencement of production, run checks (payments) expected from future sales of oil and gas are to be sent to the operator from the purchasers for oil and gas produced. Conoco is initially designated as the gatherer for the oil.  Whitt is to administrate monthly activities, and after payment of management, consulting, and lease-operating expenses (LOE’s), it collects and compiles the Joint Interest Billing (JIB) Statements and prepares certain reports and financial statements related to production income and expenses for monthly delivery to Company’s accounting for compilation along with its share of the payment to be received according to its interests.

Reserves-Whitt Oil and Gas, Inc. Three Well Program; Oil and Gas Properties, Leases, and Interests
Located in Callahan, Stephens, and Shakelford Counties, West Central Texas

The following table sets forth the estimated total proved developed producing, oil reserves, net to the Company’s interest held by its wholly owned subsidiary Energy Producers, Inc. (EPI). The reserve information is based on excerpts of the independent report prepared by Harper & Associates, Inc., and by its President, Mr. Michael Harper, a registered Professional Engineer in Louisiana #13687 and in Texas # 34481. Mr. Harper is a certified earth scientist, SIPES #2881, and has other memberships in professional associations including Society of Petroleum Engineers (#070557).  Petroleum reserves for certain properties of Energy Producers, Inc. were determined and economic forecasts prepared for the working interests of EPI to estimate proved developed producing reserves and future net revenue from the Whitt three well programs to the subject interests. This evaluation was authorized by EGPI Firecreek, Inc. in behalf of EPI. An independent engineering analysis of data was conducted and reserve estimates and economics determined under constant price and operating cost, re new SEC guidelines. The oil and gas revenue is based on the average of the January through December 2009 prices for each lease. Future prices are held constant with the weighted average for oil ($/Bbl) $58.22 and for gas ($/MCF) $5.39. BTU content, fuel and shrinkage for gas production and the quality of oil production are considered. Well operating expenses were based on the knowledge and experience of the Harper and Associates, Inc. staff in oil operations of the subject counties  for expenses and recurring monthly values including G&A. Operating expenses and investments are not escalated. Production and ad valorem taxes are deducted from revenue.

It should be emphasized that with the current economic uncertainties, fluctuation in market conditions could significantly change the economics of the property included in this report. EPI provided operating cost data beginning with their purchase of the property in December 2009. Beginning in January 2010, costs were held constant for the remaining life of the property. State production taxes and average county ad valorem taxes have been deducted at the published rates for Texas as appropriate. Based on information supplied by EPI capital costs were not included in the projection of reserves and economics in this evaluation.
 
There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of proved reserves. The reserves and reservoir predictions are estimates only. There are numerous uncertainties in the estimation of interpretation parameters, including factors such as product prices, product demand, subsurface heterogeneities, and other variables, that are beyond the control of the authors of the report as well as the owners of the subject properties. The estimates in the appraisal are based on various assumptions relating to rates of future production, timing and amount of development expenditures, oil and gas prices, and the results of planned development work. Actual future production rates and volumes, revenues, taxes, operating expenses, development expenditures, and quantities of recoverable oil and gas reserves may vary substantially from those assumed in the estimates. Any significant change in these assumptions, including changes that result from variances between projected and actual results, could materially and adversely affect future reserve estimates. In addition, such reserves may be subject to downward or upward revision based upon production history, results of future development, prevailing oil prices, and other factors.
 
Reservoir engineering and geological interpretation are a subjective process of estimating underground accumulations of oil and natural gas that cannot be measured in an exact manner. The accuracy of any reserve estimate, performance prediction, or geological analysis is a function of the quality of the available data and of engineering and geological interpretation and judgment. In addition, the impacts of various drilling, completion, and production practices on productivity can be estimated but not fully defined or quantified.

On January 15, 2010, the Company entered into an Agreement for a direct financial obligation providing the deposit necessary towards the Company’s acquisition of Southwest Signal, Inc. (SWSC). An amount of $1,000,000.00 (net of $925,000.00 less origination fee thereon) was paid to SWSC through the issuance and sale to St. George Investments, LLC, an Illinois limited liability company, of a secured promissory note and a convertible promissory note (the “Financing”). The terms of the Financing are reflected in i) a Note Purchase Agreement ii) a Secured Promissory Note, iii) a Convertible Promissory Note, iv) a Letter of Credit, v) a Registration Rights Agreement, and vi) a Funding and Letter of Credit Agreement, and all other agreements, instruments and documents being or to be executed and delivered thereon. Approximately 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock are issuable according to the Registration Rights Agreement, and further in behalf of a conversion of the form of (callable) secured convertible promissory notes in the amount of $86,000, subject to terms, including terms of default, and further adjustments thereon, and having such mandatory registration rights held by St. George Investments, LLC.  The Conversion Price of the notes shall be determined by dividing (a) the Conversion Amount by (b) seventy five percent (75%) of the lower of (i) $0.08 per share, or (ii) the average volume-weighted average price (the “VWAP”) for the three business days with the lowest average VWAP of the twenty trading days immediately preceding the date set forth in a Conversion Notice (the lower of the foregoing, the Conversion Price”).  For further information please see information and exhibits furnished in our Current report on form 8-K, as amended, filed with the SEC on January 22, and February 8, 2010, respectively.

The Company claims an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) for the private placement of these securities pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Act and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder since, among other things, the transaction does not involve a public offering, the Investor is an “accredited investor” and/or qualified institutional buyer, the Investor has access to information about the Company and its investment, the Investor will take the securities for investment and not resale, and the Company is taking appropriate measures to restrict the transfer of the securities.

As of the date of this report we have not completed our acquisition of SWSC and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in our acquisition of SWSC.

Summary Results Of Operations
 
Overview
 
You should read the following discussion and analysis in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto, and the other financial data appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report.
 
The information set forth in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including, among others (i) expected changes in the Company’s revenues and profitability, (ii) prospective business opportunities and (iii) the Company’s strategy for financing its business. Forward-looking statements are statements other than historical information or statements of current condition. Some forward-looking statements may be identified by use of terms such as “believes”, “anticipates”, “intends” or “expects”. These forward-looking statements relate to the plans, objectives and expectations of the Company for future operations. Although the Company believes that its expectations with respect to the forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions within the bounds of its knowledge of its business and operations, in light of the risks and uncertainties inherent in all future projections, the inclusion of forward-looking statements in this report should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the objectives or plans of the Company will be achieved. In light of these risks and uncertainties, there can be no assurance that actual results, performance or achievements of the Company will not differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. The foregoing review of important factors should not be construed as exhaustive. The Company undertakes no obligation to release publicly the results of any future revisions it may make to forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
 

In its 2005 fiscal year, the Company initiated a program to review domestic oil and gas prospects and targets.  As a result, EGPI acquired non-operating oil and gas interests in a project titled Ten Mile Draw (“TMD”) located in Sweetwater County, Wyoming USA for the development and production of natural gas. In July, 2007, the Company acquired and began production of oil at the 2,000 plus acre Fant Ranch Unit in Knox County, Texas. This was followed by the acquisition and commencement of oil and gas production at the J.B. Tubb Leasehold Estate located in the Amoco Crawar Field in Ward County, Texas in March, 2008. The Company successfully increased production and revenues derived from its properties and in late 2008, the Company was able to retire over 90% of its debt through the disposition of those improved properties.

In early 2009, based on the economic downturn, struggling financial markets and the implementation of the federal stimulus package for infrastructure projects, the Company embarked on a transition from an emphasis on the oil and gas focused business to that of an acquisition strategy focused on the transportation industry serving federal DOT and state/local DOT agencies. In addition, the acquisition targets being reviewed by the Company also had a presence in the telecommunications and general construction industries. The acquisition strategy focuses on vertically integrating manufacturing entities, distributors and construction groups. In May 2009, the Company acquired M3 Lighting Inc. (M3) as the flagship subsidiary with key additional management team to begin this process, and as a result on November 4, 2009, the Company acquired all of the capital stock of South Atlantic Traffic Corporation, a Florida corporation, which distributes a variety of products geared primarily towards the transportation industry where it derives its revenues.

Through 2009 we continued our previous decisions to limit and wind down the historical pursuit of our oil and gas projects overseas in Central Asian and European countries. In late 2009 and in 2010, the Company began pursuing a reentry to the oil and gas industry and again as part of our strategic plans. The Company is currently a party to a pending agreement to acquire an entity that owns approximately 2,100 miles of a pipeline system initially used as a crude oil transportation system by Koch Industries and, on December 31, 2009, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Energy Producers, Inc., effectively acquired a 50% working interest and corresponding 32% revenue interest in certain oil and gas leases, reserves and equipment located in West Central Texas.

The Company has been making presentations to asset-based lenders and other financial institutions for the purpose of (i) expanding and supporting our growth potential by development of its new line of operations for M3, and SATCO, or acquisitions by the Company that are vertically related to M3, and SATCO, such as Redquartz, and the pending SWSC and (ii) building new infrastructure for its oil and gas operations in 2009. The Company throughout its first quarter of operations for 2010 has been pursuing projects for acquisition and development of select targeted oil and gas proved producing properties with revenues, having upside potential and prospects for enhancement, rehabilitation, and future development. These prospects are primarily located in Eastern Texas, and in other core areas of the Permian Basin.

The Company’s goal is to rebuild our revenue base and cash flow; however, the Company makes no guarantees and can provide no assurances that it will be successful in these endeavors.  

 One of the ways our plans for growth could be altered if current opportunities now available become unavailable:
 
The Company would need to identify, locate, or address replacing current potential acquisitions or strategic alliances with new prospects or initiate other existing available projects that may have been planned for later stages of growth and the Company may therefore not be ready to activate. This process can place a strain on the Company. New acquisitions, business opportunities, and alliances, take time for review, analysis, inspections and negotiations. The time taken in the review activities is an unknown factor, including the business structuring of the project and related specific due diligence factors.
 
General
 
The Company historically derived its revenues primarily from retail sales of oil and gas field inventory equipment, service, and supply items primarily in the southern Arkansas area, and from acquired interests owned in revenue producing oil wells, leases, and equipment located in Olney, Young County, Texas. The Company disposed of these two segments of operations in 2003. The Company acquired a marine vessel sales brokerage and charter business, International Yacht Sales Group, Ltd. of Great Britain in December 2003 later disposing of its operations in late 2005. In 2009 we disposed of our wholly owned subsidiary Firecreek Petroleum, Inc. (see further information in this report and in our current Report on Form 8-K filed May 20, 2009, incorporated herein by reference). We account for or have accounted for these segments as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations for the related fiscal year. 
 
Sale/Assignment of 100% Stock of FPI Subsidiary

Having disposed of all of the assets of FPI, on May 18, 2009, the Company and Firecreek Global, Inc., entered into a Stock Acquisition Agreement effective the 18 th day of May, 2009, relating to the Assignees acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding shares of the capital stock of Firecreek Petroleum, Inc., a Delaware corporation. Moreover, included and inherent in the Assignment was all of the Company’s debt held in the FPI subsidiary. In addition, the Company, and Assignee executed a right of first refusal agreement attached as Exhibit to the Agreement, granting to the Company the right of first refusal, for a period of two (2) years after Closing, to participate in certain overseas projects in which Assignee may have or obtain rights related to Assignors’ previous activities in certain areas of the world. For further information please see our current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 20, 2009, incorporated herein by reference.

Completion of Recent Merger Acquisition with M3 Lighting, Inc.

On May 21, 2009, EGPI Firecreek, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company” or “Registrant”), Asian Ventures Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Subsidiary”), M3 Lighting, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“M3”), and Strategic Partners Consulting, L.L.C., a Georgia limited liability company (“Strategic Partners”) executed and closed a Plan and Agreement of Triangular Merger (the “Plan of Merger”), whereby M3 merged into the Subsidiary, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the registrant (the “Merger”).  Further information can be found along with copy of the Plan of Merger attached as an exhibit to our Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Commission on May 27, 2009, as amended.

In accordance with the Company’s plans and strategy we are currently developing two lines of business, one line of business for our historical oil and gas operations now reorganized into the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary unit, Energy Producers, Inc. F/K/A Malibu Holding, Inc., this replacing Firecreek Petroleum, Inc., and one for M3 Lighting, Inc., F/K/A Asian Ventures, Corp. which is involved in distribution of commercial and decorative lighting to the trade, and to direct retailers.  M3 specializes in the areas of lighting industry sales, design, product development, and sourcing, contracting and capital markets.   M3 has a presence in the U.S. and Asia. With a sales representative in China and offices in the U.S., the M3 team through this footprint, as required, can effectively monitor price competition, expediting product shipments and grow the business through sales.  M3 can import both finished goods and sub-assemblies for domestic final assembly. Through its experience, knowledge and contacts in the lighting and DOT industry, M3 created a business plan to create a vertical rollup and stream of acquisitions targeted strategically for the Company that included manufactures, distributors and contractors. This change in strategy allowed the management and key decision makers at M3 more time to focus on potential acquisitions who they had done business with for numerous years. Focusing on the Obama Infrastructure Stimulus funding that is being released for roadwork throughout the country; M3 is pursing companies that are involved in the lighting, traffic signs/signals and ITS components of the industry.  M3 is also actively pursuing federal contracts to provide lighting and contracting through our partnership with CST Federal who are a disabled veteran’s agency that bids government contracts.  Future acquisitions in the DOT construction industry are expected to provide a labor force for the maintenance and remediation services the Company plans on providing.

The Company expects to incur an increase in operating expenses during the next year from commencing activities related to its plans for the Company’s oil and gas business through EPI, and including any new or pending acquisitions discussed herein, and those business activities and developments related to our newest M3 and SATCO strategy and operations, and new acquisitions, including new or pending acquisitions related to signalization and lighting geared to the transportation industry. The amount of net losses and the time required for the Company to reach and maintain profitability are uncertain at this time. There is a likelihood that the Company will encounter difficulties and delays encountered with business subsidiary operations, including, but not limited to uncertainty as to development and the time and timing required for the Company’s plans to be fully implemented, governmental regulatory responses to the Company’s plans, fluctuating markets and corresponding spikes, or dips in our products demand, currency exchange rates between countries, acquisition and development pricing, related costs, expenses, offsets, increases, and adjustments. There can be no assurance that the Company will ever generate significant revenues or achieve profitability at all or on any substantial basis.

Historically noted, as previously disclosed in EGPI Firecreek, Inc.’s (“EGPI” or the “Company”) filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the Company has entered into, and issued, various debenture and note agreements (the “Loan Documents”) with Dutchess Private Equities Fund Ltd, (“Dutchess”), successor in interest to Dutchess Private Equities Fund LP and Dutchess Private Equities Fund II, LP. The Company and Dutchess have also entered into that certain Security Agreement, dated March 27, 2007, as amended, providing for, among other things, Dutchess’ rights and remedies with respect to certain of the Company’s assets. On October 24, 2008, the Company then did receive a default notice (“Default Notice”) pursuant to the Loan Documents previously disclosed stating that the Company was in default of their obligations to Dutchess, including, but not limited to, failure to pay interest and principal when due. Further, pursuant to the Default Notice, Dutchess gave notice that it is exercising its right to increase the aggregate face amount of the obligations owing under the Loan Documents by ten percent (10%) for each instance of default. Accordingly, Dutchess accelerated and declared outstanding all unpaid principal, accrued interest, liquidated damages, and any other costs and expenses to be immediately due and payable in full. The aggregate amount owed to Dutchess, as provided in the Default Notice, is $9,304,962; such amount is to be paid within five (5) days of the Default Notice. Moreover, as stated in the Default Notice, Dutchess reserved the right to pursue any and all available legal remedies for any failure to pay any amount due to Dutchess. On December 2, 2008 as a result of a default notice received October 24, 3008 on Promissory Notes and Debentures, all of the assets were transferred or foreclosed on and transferred to Dutchess Private Equities Fund, Ltd (“Dutchess”).
 
There were no funds obtained from financing activities in 2008. Cash provided for operations was provided primarily from its oil and gas operations through December 2, 2008. In 2009, Management obtained $933,133 by issuing Promissory Notes.  Proceeds were used for acquisitions and working capital. Management has estimated that cost for initially paying down certain of the Company’s recent debt, providing necessary working capital, and activating development of its current plans for domestic oil and gas segment operations, acquisition and development, and its proposed signalization and lighting business operations and activities, acquisition and developments, will initially require a very minimum of $3,500,000 to $7,500,000 to a maximum of $8,000,000 to $10 million during the first six to twelve months of fiscal 2010.

Financing our full expansion and development plans for our oil and gas operations could require up to $50,000,000 or more. The Company may elect to reduce or increase its requirement as circumstances dictate. We may elect to revise these plans and requirements for funds depending on factors including; changes in acquisition and development estimates; interim corporate and project finance requirements; unexpected timing of markets as to cyclical aspects as a whole; currency and exchange rates; project availability with respect to interest and timing factors indicated from parties representing potential sources of capital; structure and status of our strategic alliances, potential joint venture partners, and or our targeted acquisitions and or interests.
 
The Company cannot predict that it will be successful in obtaining funding for its plans or that it will achieve profitability in fiscal 2010.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of EGPI Firecreek, Inc.
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of EGPI Firecreek, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2009 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended. The financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008 were audited by other auditors whose report expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements.   These financial statements are the responsibility of company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audit in accordance with 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 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. Our audit included 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 includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of EGPI Firecreek, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2009, and the results of its operations, cash flows, and changes in shareholders’ equity for the periods described above in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.  Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also discussed in Note 2.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

EGPI Firecreek, Inc.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Years Ended December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008
 
1. Organization of the Company and Significant Accounting Principles
 
The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada October 1995. Effective October 13, 2004 the Company, previously known as Energy Producers Inc., changed its name to EGPI Firecreek, Inc.
 
Prior to December 2008, the Company held interests in various gas & oil wells located in the Wyoming and Texas area. In December 2008, the Company’s major creditor, Dutchess Private Equities Ltd. (Dutchess), foreclosed on the assets of the Company.  As a result, all of the Company’s oil and gas properties were transferred to Dutchess in satisfaction of debt owed. See financial statement Note 9 for further discussion.

In October 2008, the Company effected a 1 share for 200 shares reverse split of its common stock. See financial statement note 5 for a further discussion.

In May 2009 the Company acquired M3 Lighting, Inc. (“M3”) as a wholly owned subsidiary via reverse triangular merger. The Company was determined to be the acquirer in the transaction for accounting purposes. M3 is a distributor of commercial and decorative lighting to the trade and direct to retailers.  As part of the Merger the Company effected a name change for its wholly owned subsidiary Malibu Holding, Inc. to Energy Producers, Inc. (“EPI”) as a conduit for its oil and gas activities.

In November 2009 the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of South Atlantic Traffic Corporation, a Florida corporation (“SATCO”). SATCO has been in business since 2001 and has several offices throughout the Southeast United States. SATCO carries a variety of products and inventory geared primarily towards the transportation industry.  SATCO offers transportation products ranging from loop sealant, traffic signal equipment, traffic and light poles, data/video systems and Intelligent Traffic Systems (ITS) surveillance systems. SATCO works closely with Department of Transportation (DOT) agencies, local traffic engineers, contractors, and consultants to customize high quality traffic control systems.

In December 2009, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Energy Producers, Inc. acquired 50% working interests and corresponding 32% net revenue interests in oil and gas leases, reserves, and equipment located in West Central Texas.. The Company entered into a turnkey work program included for three wells located on the leases.

Consolidation- the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary.  All significant inter-company balances have been eliminated.
 
Use of Estimates- The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make reasonable estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of the assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses at the date of the consolidated financial statements and for the period they include.  Actual results may differ from these estimates.
 
Revenue and Cost Recognition- Revenue is recognized from oil &gas sales at such time as the oil & gas is delivered to the buyer. For its producing activities, the Company uses successful efforts costing. Sales revenues are recognized at the time product has been delivered to the customer. Sales are recorded net of discounts or other adjustments which may be applied to the gross sales price. Customer sales are specialty orders drop-shipped from the manufacturer.   Accordingly, all sales are final upon delivery to the customer under the terms of the sales order.  The Company’s policy is not to grant customer refunds. Customer deposits received upon execution of a sales order are recorded as revenue upon completion of the sale.

The Company records commission revenue, usually 3% of the amount invoiced, based on contracts with suppliers, once the purchase order is placed with the supplier and the customer is invoiced.  The Company, in turn, sends an invoice to the supplier for 3% of the total order amount. .  Commission sales are specialty orders drop-shipped  from the manufacturer.  Accordingly, all sales are final upon delivery to the customer under the terms of the sales order.

Cash Equivalents-The Company considers all highly liquid investments with the original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents as of December 31, 2009 and 2008.
 
F-8


Accounts Receivable-The Company extends credit to its customers in the normal course of business and performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers, maintaining allowances for potential credit losses which, when realized, have been within management's expectations. The allowance method is used to account for uncollectible amounts. The evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. Allowance for doubtful accounts was $651,913 and $0 at December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Inventory-Inventories consist of merchandise purchased for resale and are stated at the lower of cost or market using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.

Prepaid Expenses-Prepaid expenses are recorded at cost for payments for goods and services purchased during an accounting period but not used or consumed during that accounting period. The costs are amortized over time as the benefit is received onto the income statement.

Oil and Gas Activities -The Company uses the successful efforts method of accounting for oil and gas producing activities. Under this method, acquisition costs for proved and unproved properties are capitalized when incurred. Exploration costs, including geological and geophysical costs, the costs of carrying and retaining unproved properties and exploratory dry hole drilling costs, are expensed. Development costs, including the costs to drill and equip development wells, and successful exploratory drilling costs to locate proved reserves are capitalized.
 
Exploratory drilling costs are capitalized when incurred pending the determination of whether a well has found proved reserves. A determination of whether a well has found proved reserves is made shortly after drilling is completed. The determination is based on a process which relies on interpretations of available geologic, geophysic, and engineering data. If a well is determined to be successful, the capitalized drilling costs will be reclassified as part of the cost of the well. If a well is determined to be unsuccessful, the capitalized drilling costs will be charged to expense in the period the determination is made. If an exploratory well requires a major capital expenditure before production can begin, the cost of drilling the exploratory well will continue to be carried as an asset pending determination of whether proved reserves have been found only as long as: i) the well has found a sufficient quantity of reserves to justify its completion as a producing well if the required capital expenditure is made and ii) drilling of the additional exploratory wells is under way or firmly planned for the near future. If drilling in the area is not under way or firmly planned, or if the well has not found a commercially producible quantity of reserves, the exploratory well is assumed to be impaired, and its costs are charged to expense.
 
In the absence of a determination as to whether the reserves that have been found can be classified as proved, the costs of drilling such an exploratory well is not carried as an asset for more than one year following completion of drilling. If, after that year has passed, a determination that proved reserves exist cannot be made, the well is assumed to be impaired, and its costs are charged to expense. Its costs can, however, continue to be capitalized if a sufficient quantity of reserves is discovered in the well to justify its completion as a producing well and sufficient progress is made in assessing the reserves and the well’s economic and operating feasibility.
 
The impairment of unamortized capital costs is measured at a lease level and is reduced to fair value if it is determined that the sum of expected future net cash flows is less than the net book value. The Company determines if impairment has occurred through either adverse changes or as a result of the annual review of all fields. During 2009 after conducting an impairment analysis, the Company did not record impairment as the PV 10 value of our reserves exceeded our cost.

Asset Retirement Obligations (“ARO”).  The estimated costs of restoration and removal of facilities are accrued. The fair value of a liability for an asset's retirement obligation is recorded in the period in which it is incurred and the corresponding cost capitalized by increasing the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. The liability is accreted to its then present value each period, and the capitalized cost is depreciated with the related long-lived asset. If the liability is settled for an amount other than the recorded amount, a gain or loss is recognized. For all periods presented, estimated future costs of abandonment and dismantlement are included in the full cost amortization base and are amortized as a component of depletion expense. At December 31, 2009, the ARO of $4,337 is included in accrued expenses and fixed assets.
 
F-9

 
Development costs of proved oil and gas properties, including estimated dismantlement, restoration and abandonment costs and acquisition costs, are depreciated and depleted on a field basis by the units-of-production method using proved developed and proved reserves, respectively. The costs of unproved oil and gas properties are generally combined and impaired over a period that is based on the average holding period for such properties and the Company's experience of successful drilling.
 
Costs of retired, sold or abandoned properties that make up a part of an amortization base (partial field) are charged to accumulated depreciation, depletion and amortization if the units-of-production rate is not significantly affected. Accordingly, a gain or loss, if any, is recognized only when a group of proved properties (entire field) that make up the amortization base has been retired, abandoned or sold.

Stock-Based Compensation The Company estimates the fair value of share-based payment awards made to employees and directors, including stock options, restricted stock and employee stock purchases related to employee stock purchase plans, on the date of grant using an option-pricing model.  The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense ratably over the requisite service periods.  We estimate the fair value of each share-based award using the Black-Sholes option pricing model. The Black-Sholes model is highly complex and dependent on key estimates by management. The estimates with the greatest degree of subjective judgment are the estimated lives of the stock-based awards and the estimated volatility of our stock price. The Black-Sholes model is also used for our valuation of warrants.

Earnings Per Common Share-Basic earnings per common share is calculated based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents (convertible notes and interest on the notes, stock awards and stock options) outstanding during the period. Dilutive earnings per common share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if options to purchase common stock were exercised for shares of common stock.  Basic and diluted EPS are the same as the effect of our potential common stock equivalents would be anti-dilutive.
  
Fair Value Measurements -  On January 1, 2008, the Company adopted guidance which defines fair value, establishes a framework for using fair value to measure financial assets and liabilities on a recurring basis, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Beginning on January 1, 2009, the Company also applied the guidance to non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis, which includes goodwill and intangible assets. The guidance establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the reliability of the inputs as follows:

Level 1 - Valuation is based upon unadjusted quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access.

Level 2 -Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets; or valuations based on models where the significant inputs are observable in the market.

Level 3 - Valuation is based on models where significant inputs are not observable. The unobservable inputs reflect the Company's own assumptions about the inputs that market participants would use.

Non-Recurring fair value metrics:

Level 1 – None

Level 2 – None

Level 3 – Intangible assets - $824,000, Goodwill $2,001,840 = Total $2,084,240
 
The Company has goodwill and intangible assets as a result of the 2009 business combinations discussed throughout this form 10K. These assets were valued with the help of a valuation consultant and consisted of level 3 valuation techniques.
 
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable,  accounts payable, accrued liabilities and long-term debt. The estimated fair value of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying amounts due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying value of long-term debt also approximates fair value since their terms are similar to those in the lending market for comparable loans with comparable risks. None of these instruments are held for trading purposes.
 
F-10

 
Fixed Assets- Fixed assets are stated at cost. Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset. The following is a summary of the estimated useful lives used in computing depreciation expense:
 
Office equipment
 
3 years
Computer hardware & software
 
3 years
Improvements & furniture
 
5 years
Well equipment
 
7 years
 
Expenditures for major repairs and renewals that extend the useful life of the asset are capitalized.  Minor repair expenditures are charged to expense as incurred.
 
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets-The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 360-10, Property, Plant and Equipment ("ASC 360-10"). ASC 360-10 requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles held and used by the Company be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment annually or more often if events and circumstances warrant. Events relating to recoverability may include significant unfavorable changes in business conditions, recurring losses or a forecasted inability to achieve break-even operating results over an extended period. The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets based upon forecasted undiscounted cash flows. Should impairment in value be indicated, the carrying value of intangible assets will be adjusted, based on estimates of future discounted cash flows resulting from the use and ultimate disposition of the asset. ASC 360-10 also requires assets to be disposed of be reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell. T

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets - The Company periodically reviews the carrying value of intangible assets not subject to amortization, including goodwill, to determine whether impairment may exist. Goodwill and certain intangible assets are assessed annually, or when certain triggering events occur, for impairment using fair value measurement techniques. These events could include a significant change in the business climate, legal factors, a decline in operating performance, competition, sale or disposition of a significant portion of the business, or other factors.  Specifically, goodwill impairment is determined using a two-step process. The first step of the goodwill impairment test is used to identify potential impairment by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. The Company uses level 3 inputs and a discounted cash flow methodology to estimate the fair value of a reporting unit. A discounted cash flow analysis requires one to make various judgmental assumptions including assumptions about future cash flows, growth rates, and discount rates. The assumptions about future cash flows and growth rates are based on the Company’s budget and long-term plans. Discount rate assumptions are based on an assessment of the risk inherent in the respective reporting units. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered not impaired and the second step of the impairment test is unnecessary. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step of the goodwill impairment test is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any. The second step of the goodwill impairment test compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined in the same manner as the amount of goodwill recognized in a business combination. That is, the fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the assets and liabilities of that unit (including any unrecognized intangible assets) as if the reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination and the fair value of the reporting unit was the purchase price paid to acquire the reporting unit.  The Company’s evaluation of goodwill completed during the year ended December 31, 2009 resulted in no impairment.
 
As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, amortizable intangible assets consist of trade names and customer contracts.  These intangibles are being amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of 12 and 10 years, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2009 the Company recorded amortization of our intangibles of $11,140.
 
There were no intangible assets or goodwill as of December 31, 2008 due to the fact that these items arose from our business acquisitions in 2009.

Discontinued operations - to account for the sale of the oil & gas properties in 2008 as more fully discussed in financial statement note 9.  Accordingly, the results of operations and cash flows from these assets for both 2009 and 2008 are separately recorded in the consolidated statements of operations and cash flows as a discontinued component.
 
Income taxes- The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method, which requires the establishment of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of the Company’s assets and liabilities at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such amounts are realized or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.  A valuation allowance is provided to the extent deferred tax assets may not be recoverable after consideration of the future reversal of deferred tax liabilities, tax planning strategies, and projected future taxable income.

The Company uses a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The guidance requires the Company to recognize tax benefits only for tax positions that are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities.  The amount recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely to be realized upon settlement.  A liability for “unrecognized tax benefits” is recorded for any tax benefits claimed in our tax returns that do not meet these recognition and measurement standards.

 Reclassifications - Certain items from the December 31, 2008 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified in the December 31, 2009 financial statements to conform to current year presentation. There is no effect on net income, cash flows or stockholders’ equity as a result of these reclassifications.

Recent accounting pronouncements - In October 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued new revenue recognition standards for arrangements with multiple deliverables, where certain of those deliverables are non-software related. The new standards permit entities to initially use management’s best estimate of selling price to value individual deliverables when those deliverables do not have Vendor Specific Objective Evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value or when third-party evidence is not available. Additionally, these new standards modify the manner in which the transaction consideration is allocated across the separately identified deliverables by no longer permitting the residual method of allocating arrangement consideration. These new standards are effective for annual periods ending after June 15, 2010 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In June 2009, the FASB issued guidance establishing the Codification as the source of authoritative U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U. S. GAAP”) recognized by the FASB to be applied by non-governmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative U.S. GAAP for SEC registrants. The Codification supersedes all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification will become non-authoritative. The FASB will no longer issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions, or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts. Instead, the FASB will issue Accounting Standards Updates, which will serve only to update the Codification, provide background information about the guidance and provide the bases for conclusions on changes in the Codification. All content in the Codification carries the same level of authority, and the U.S. GAAP hierarchy was modified to include only two levels of U.S. GAAP: authoritative and non-authoritative. The Codification is effective for the Company’s interim and annual periods beginning with the Company’s year ending December 31, 2009. Adoption of the Codification affected disclosures in the Consolidated Financial Statements by eliminating references to previously issued accounting literature, such as SFASs, EITFs and FSPs.

In June 2009, the FASB issued amended standards for determining whether to consolidate a variable interest entity. These new standards amend the evaluation criteria to identify the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity and require ongoing reassessment of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of the variable interest entity. The provisions of the new standards are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after November 15, 2009 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of the new standards will not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In May 2009, the FASB issued guidance establishing general standards for accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued and shall be applied to subsequent events not addressed in other applicable generally accepted accounting principles. This guidance, among other things, sets forth the period after the balance sheet date during which management should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements and the disclosures an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. The adoption of this guidance had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

2. Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments that might result if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.  The Company has experienced substantial losses, maintains a negative working capital and capital deficits, which raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  

 The Company is working to manage its current liabilities while it continues to make changes in operations to improve its cash flow and liquidity position. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern and appropriateness of using the going concern basis is dependent upon the Company’s ability to generate revenue from the sale of its services and the cooperation of the Company’s note holders to assist with obtaining working capital to meet operating costs in addition to our ability to raise funds.

3. Common and Preferred Stock Transactions and Reverse Stock Split
 
During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company issued 16,942,360 shares of common stock for services that were expenses and valued at $1,563,986 based upon the closing price of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant.
 
During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company issued 7,863,287 shares of common stock to extinguish debt of 277,294 resulting in a loss on extinguishment of debt of $336.271 based upon the closing price of the Company’s common stock at the grant date less the carrying value of the debt that was exchanged.
 
During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company issued 17,228,808 shares of common stock as partial payment to acquire it’s South Atlantic Traffic Corporation subsidiary and our M3 subsidiary. 14,320,808 shares were issued to acquire M3 and 2,908,000 shares were issued to acquire South Atlantic Traffic Corporation.

During the year ended December 31, 2009 we issued 2,500,000 shares of our common stock as downpayment to acquire the Sierra Pipeline. Through the date of this report we have been unable to finalize this acquisition and have no further extensions. As a result the value of these shares based upon the closing price of our common stock of $225,000 has been expensed.

During 2009, shareholders of the Company contributed $50,950 of cash to the Company.

As noted throughout the document, we completed a spinoff of our Firecreek subsidiary during 2009.  The Company determined this transaction was not at arm’s length and as result the net value of the spinoff of $592,567 has been recorded as a component of additional paid in capital.
 
In October 2008 Dutchess converted their shares into 1,000,000 shares of common stock.
 
In October 2008, the Company effected a 1 share for 200 shares reverse split of its common stock.  As a result, the issued and outstanding shares at December 31, 2007 were decreased from 1,184,257,619 shares to 5,921,288 shares and basic and fully diluted loss per share for fiscal year 2007 was decreased from $0.00 to $0.68.  In addition, the par value of the common stock was increased from $0.001 to $0.20.
 
4. Preferred Stock Series
 
Series A preferred stock: Series A preferred stock has a par value of $0.001 per share and no stated dividend preference.  The Series A is convertible into common stock at a conversion ratio of one preferred share for one common share.   Preferred A has liquidation preference over Preferred B stock and common stock.
 
Series B preferred stock: Series B preferred stock has a par value of $0.001 per share and no stated dividend preference.  The Series B is convertible into common stock at a conversion ratio of one preferred share for one common share.  The Series B has liquidation preference over Preferred C stock and common stock.
 
Series C preferred stock: The Preferred C stock has a stated value of $.001 and no stated dividend rate and is non-participatory.   The Series C has liquidation preference over common stock. Effective May 20, 2009 i) Voting Rights for each share of Series C Preferred Stock shall have 21,200 votes on the election of directors of the Company and for all other purposes, and, ii) regarding Conversion to Common Shares, Series C have no right to convert to common or any other series of authorized shares of the Company.

6. Disposal of Tubb, Ten-Mile Draw, and Fant Ranch Properties
 
In fiscal year 2005, the Company entered into an equity line credit agreement with Dutchess, a financing company, and a shareholder. Under the terms of the equity line agreement, the Company was obligated to pay the face value of the equity line notes in cash or an equivalent amount in common stock. All of the assets of the Company held by it’s 100% owned subsidiary, Firecreek Petroleum, Inc. secured the equity line notes. The notes had an effective interest rate of approximately 20%.  As an incentive to enter the equity line of credit, the Company also issued convertible debentures, see reference footnote 10, the fair market value of which had been discounted against the face of the equity line notes and was being amortized to interest expense over the life of the equity line notes.
 
 
At December 2, 2008, the Dutchess foreclosed on all of the assets of the Company.  As a result of the foreclosure by Dutchess, the Company transferred all of its assets in its Tubb and Fant Ranch oil & gas properties and $50,000 to retire all the debt legally extinguishing $9,201,166 owed to Dutchess by equity line notes payable or other instruments.  As a result of the foreclosure the Company recognized a gain on the disposal of these assets of $6,385,133 in its consolidated statement of operations at December 31, 2008.  The Ten-Mile Draw property had been earlier sold in October 2008 for $125,000.  The Company recognized a loss on this asset disposal of $581,654 in the consolidated statement of operations.

 7. Acquisition of M3 Lighting, Inc. (M3), and South Atlantic Traffic Corporation (SATCO)

i)  
On May 21, 2009, The Company, Asian Ventures Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Subsidiary”), M3 Lighting, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“M3”), and Strategic Partners Consulting, L.L.C., a Georgia limited liability company (“Strategic Partners”) executed and closed a Plan and Agreement of Triangular Merger (the “Plan of Merger”), whereby M3 merged into the Subsidiary, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The acquisition has been accounted for  at cost basis with no step up in purchase price due to M3 no having ongoing operations as a development stage company and no meeting the definition of a business. We gave 14,320,808 shares of our commons stock to acquire M3.
 
ii)  
On November 4, 2009, the Company, Bob Joyner, a Florida resident ("Joyner"), Stewart Hall, a North Carolina resident ("Hall"), Hunter Intelligent Traffic Systems, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company (“Hunter”) and South Atlantic Traffic Corporation, a Florida corporation ( “SATCO”), executed a Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement") whereas the Registrant acquired all of the outstanding stock and interests held in SATCO. A copy of the Agreement was attached as an exhibit to our Current Report filed with the Commission on November 12, 2009.The acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). Under the purchase method of accounting, in accordance with ARC 805, the assets and liabilities of SATCO are recorded as of the acquisition date at their respective fair values, and consolidated with the Company’s assets and liabilities.
 
The Agreement calls for the following material terms:
 
I. Purchase of Stock, Purchase Price:
 
1. The Registrant agreed to pay to the Sellers aggregate consideration of $2,326,300 (the "PURCHASE PRICE"), adjusted to $2,058,373 as a result of the estimated make whole provision below by delivery of:
 
(a)Cash in available funds equal to the greater of: (i) sum of Fifty Percent (50%) of SATCO’s available cash balance at Closing plus Twenty-Five Percent (25%) of SATCO’s trade accounts receivables aged less than Ninety (90) days past due at Closing with an additional amount to be negotiated for the outstanding retainage and imminent collections of receivables over 90 days old as negotiated prior to Closing; which was (ii) $600,000.
 
(b)Promissory notes issued to each Seller in the aggregate principal amount of Five Hundred Sixty Three Thousand One Hundred US Dollars ($563,100.00) (the “PROMISSORY NOTES”). The Promissory Notes will accrue interest at a rate of Nine Percent (9%) per annum and will amortize with a principal and interest payment at the First Anniversary Date of the Transaction of Twenty-Five Percent (25%) of the Promissory Notes plus accrued interest, a principal and interest payment at the Second Anniversary Date of the Transaction of Twenty-Five Percent (25%) of the Promissory Notes plus accrued interest and a Final Payment of the Outstanding Balance of the Promissory Notes plus any unpaid interest on the Third Anniversary Date of the Transaction.
 
F-16

 
(c)2,908,000 shares of the Registrant’s common stock issued to the Sellers pro rata based on their ownership in SATCO representing $1,163,200.00 in value at a price per share of $0.40 ("STOCK CONSIDERATION").
 
(d)Principal and interest on the Promissory Notes will be allocated to the Sellers pro rata based on their equity ownership SATCO. The Promissory Notes carry a cumulative claw-back feature (the “Claw Back”) for the term of the Promissory Notes listed in the agreement.
 
(e)Stock consideration shall be issued at closing as follows: The Purchaser shall issue to the Sellers an aggregate of 2,908,000 shares of its Common Stock (“the “STOCK CONSIDERATION”) the total Stock Consideration to be paid to the Sellers based upon a share price of Forty Cents ($0.40) per share.
 
(f)Stock Consideration issued at Closing will carry a make whole provision (the “Make Whole”). It is the parties’ intention that the Proposed Transaction will be structured as a tax-free reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Make Whole provides down-side protection against a decline in the Registrant’s common share price. The Make Whole is available only for shares held from the Stock Consideration by the Seller for a period of one year following Closing. In the event that the Market Price Per Share of the Stock Consideration during the thirty (30) consecutive trading days immediately prior to the first anniversary of the Closing (the “Make Whole Date”) is less than $.40, the Registrant would, at the Registrant’s option, either issue to Sellers that number of additional shares of EGPI common stock equal to (1) the number of shares of EGPI common stock comprising the Stock Consideration held at the Make Whole Date, multiplied by $.40, less (2) the number of shares of EGPI common stock comprising the Stock Consideration held at the Make Whole Date, multiplied by the Market Price Per Share of the Stock Consideration on the Make Whole Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Registrant’s obligation to make any adjustment pursuant to the preceding sentence shall terminate in the event that, at any time prior to the Make Whole Date, the aggregate Market Price Per Share of the Registrant’s common stock during any twenty consecutive trading days exceeds $.75. The termination of the Make Whole mechanism will only apply if the Sellers’ shares are registered during the entire twenty consecutive trading days period, during which the Market Price Per Share of the Registrant’s common stock exceeds $.75, by virtue of eligibility and effectiveness of either i) 144 legend removal or ii) self imposed registration process by the Registrant.

8. Income Tax Provision

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities consist of the following at December 31, 2009:
 
Deferred Tax asset
  $ 608,644  
    (608,644 )
Net deferred tax assets
    0  

The Company estimates that it has an NOL carryfoward of approximately $1,728,983 that begins to expire in 2027.

After evaluating any potential tax consequence from our former subsidiary and our own potential tax uncertainties, the Company has determined that there are no material uncertain tax positions that have a greater than 50% likelihood of reversal if the Company were to be audited. The Company believes that it is current with all payroll and other statutory taxes. Our tax return for the years ended December 31, 2002 to December 31,2009 may be subject to IRS audit.

9.  Gain on Sale of Asset
 
In August 2007, the Company sold all of its rights to certain projects in the Ukraine that had been developed through its subsidiary, Firecreek Petroleum Inc., to Star Energy Corp. for $100,000 cash and 2.1 million shares of Star’s stock.  The rights to these projects had previously been 100% impaired by the Company in 2005 and therefore all the proceeds received from the transaction have been recorded as a “gain on asset sale” in the consolidated statement of operations in 2007.  Management has classified the Star stock as “available for sale” as per SFAS 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities” and, accordingly, has recorded the loss in the market value of the stock in other comprehensive income at December 31, 2007. The stock was sold in December 2008.

Disposal of assets resulted in a loss of $108,465.
 
10.  Related Party Transactions
 
During fiscal years 2008, the chief executive officer and shareholder provided office space to the Company at no charge.  
 
During fiscal years 2008, three shareholders had unsecured non-interest bearing advances receivable from the Company. The Company has imputed an interest rate of 20% on these advances which total $240,918 and $307,096 at December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
 
The Company was indebted to Dutchess Private Equities Ltd., a stockholder at December 2, 2008, the date of the Dutchess foreclosure.  As a result of the foreclosure by Dutchess, the Company transferred all of its assets in its Tubb and Fant Ranch oil & gas properties and $50,000 to retire all the debt owed to Dutchess.  As a result of the foreclosure the Company recognized a gain on the disposal of these assets of $5,028,954 in its consolidated statement of operations at December 31, 2008. See financial statement note 9 for a further discussion.
 
11. Notes Payable
 
In December 2008, the Company issued a note payable to Dutchess for $47,565 in return for the right to participate with Dutchess in any future drilling in a portion of the Tubb property.  The note is unsecured and carries an interest rate of 12% and matures in June 2009.  Management considered the asset received in this purchase to be impaired because future cash flows from this asset could not be assured and accordingly recognized an impairment expense in the consolidated statements of operations. The note was paid in full in 2008.

* Compounded
 
During 2009 we received cash proceeds for debt obligations of $933,133. During December 2009 we issued $150,000 of notes that will become convertible either at maturity in June 2010 or upon an event of default. The Company evaluated these notes and determined since the note is currently not convertible no beneficial conversion feature or derivative exists within this note. The Company also granted warrants to these note holders as noted previously in these footnotes. These warrants were not attached to the debt and as a result were expensed when issued and not treated a discount to the notes. The other notes noted above did not contain conversion features.
 
Although a portion of our debt is not due within 12 months give our working capital deficit and cash positions or ability to service the debt on a long term basis is questionable and as a result the notes are all treated as current liabilities.

12. Concentrations and Risk

Customers

During the year ended December 31, 2009, revenue generated under the top five customers accounted for 45% of the Company’s total revenue. For the year ended December 31, 2009, three customers accounted for 29% of the total outstanding accounts receivable. Concentration with a single or a few customers may expose the Company to the risk of substantial losses if a single dominant customer stops conducting business with the Company.  Moreover, the Company may be subject to the risks faced by these major customers to the extent that such risks impede such customers’ ability to stay in business and make timely payments.
 
Suppliers
 
The Company obtained approximately 67% of its products from one manufacturer in the United States for the year ending December 31, 2009. Management believes this poses no business risk as the Company believes alternative product sources are readily available if needed.
 
13. Contingencies

The Company is subject to various claims and legal proceedings covering a wide range of matters that arise in the ordinary course of its business activities. Management believes that any liability that may ultimately result from the resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or results of operations of the Company. Management is not aware of any pending litigation.

As noted in our business combination footnote our SATCO acquisition contained certain make whole provisions that may impact us in the future.

As noted in our debt footnote above, we have certain notes that may become convertible in the future and potential result in further dilution to our common shareholders.

14. Factoring of Receivables

On October 28, 2009 the Company entered into a factoring agreement with Benefactor Funding Corporation (Factor) for the purchase and sale of accounts receivable. As outlined in the agreement, the Company agrees to assign, transfer, convey, and deliver to Factor all accounts receivable which are accepted for purchase by the Factor. Per current accounting literature the factoring agreement is treated as loan and not a sale. The Factor receives the Accepted Accounts with recourse and the Company is charged a fee per dollar amount of receivable factored. As of December 31, 2009 we were in good standing with the Factor and have accounted for the net of funds received and accounts factored as a reserve amount in net receivables.

16. SUPPLEMENTAL OIL AND GAS INFORMATION (UNAUDITED)

Oil and Natural Gas Exploration and Production Activities

Oil and gas sales reflect the market prices of net production sold or transferred with appropriate adjustments for royalties, net profits interest, and other contractual provisions. Production expenses include lifting costs incurred to operate and maintain productive wells and related equipment including such costs as operating labor, repairs and maintenance, materials, supplies and fuel consumed.  Production taxes include production and severance taxes. Depletion of oil and gas properties relates to capitalized costs incurred in acquisition, exploration, and development activities. Results of operations do not include interest expense and general corporate amounts.  The results of operations for the company's oil and gas production activities are provided in the Company's related statements of operations.

Oil and Natural Gas Reserves and Related Financial Data

Information with respect to the Company’s oil and gas producing activities is presented in the following tables. Reserve quantities, as well as certain information regarding future production and discounted cash flows, were determined by Harper Associates, Inc. independent petroleum consultants based on information provided by the Company.
 
Oil and Natural Gas Reserve Data

The following tables present the Company’s independent petroleum consultants’ estimates of its proved oil and gas reserves. The Company emphasizes that reserves are approximations and are expected to change as additional information becomes available. Reservoir engineering is a subjective process of estimating underground accumulations of oil and gas that cannot be measured in an exact way and the accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of the quality of available data and of engineering and geological interpretation and judgment.

Proved reserves are estimated quantities of oil and gas, which geological and engineering data indicate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions. Proved developed reserves are proved reserves that can be expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods.  Proved undeveloped reserves are included for reserves for which there is a high degree of confidence in their recoverability and they are scheduled to be drilled within the next five years.

Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Inflows and Changes Therein

The following table presents a standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows relating to proved oil and gas reserves and the changes in standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows relating proved oil and gas were prepared in accordance with the provisions of ASC 932-235-555. Future cash inflows were computed by applying average prices of oil and gas for the last 12 months as of December 31, 2009 and current prices as of December 31, 2008 to estimated future production. Future production and development 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 and assuming continuation of existing economic conditions.  Future income tax expenses were calculated by applying appropriate year-end tax rates to future pretax cash flows relating to proved oil and gas reserves, less the tax basis of properties involved and tax credits and loss carryforwards relating to oil and gas producing activities.  Future net cash flows are discounted at the rate of 10% annually to derive the standardized measure of discounted future cash flows. Actual future cash inflows may vary considerably, and the standardized measure does not necessarily represent the fair value of the Company’s oil and  gas reserves.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
 
On November 24, 2009, Donahue Associates, LLC resigned as the Company’s independent auditor. The reports of Donahue Associates on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the periods ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to any uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle except to indicate that there was substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  The board of directors and audit committee of the Company discussed the desire to resign with Donahue Associates and accepted the resignation.

During the Registrant's two most recent fiscal years, and any subsequent interim period preceding the resignation on November 24, 2009, there were no disagreements between the Registrant and Donahue Associates on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement(s), if not resolved to the satisfaction of Donahue Associates, would have caused him to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement(s) in connection with his reports.

On November 24, 2009, the Registrant's board of directors resolved to retain M & K CPAs, PLLC as the sole principal independent registered accountant for the Registrant. During the two most recent fiscal years and through November 24, 2009, the Company had not consulted with M & K CPAs, PLLC regarding any of the following:

 
(i)
The application of accounting principles to a specific transaction, either completed or proposed;

 
(ii)
The type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Registrant's consolidated financial statements, and none of the following was provided to the Registrant: (a) a written report, or (b) oral advice that M & K CPAs, PLLC concluded was an important factor considered by the Registrant in reaching a decision as to accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or

 
(iii)
Any matter that was subject of a disagreement, as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K.
 
ITEM 9A(T). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of disclosure and controls and procedures:

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of December 31, 2009. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer. Based on this evaluation, these officers have concluded that there are material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures and they were not effective for the following reasons:
 
 
·
In connection with the preparation of the Original Report, we identified a deficiency in our disclosure controls and procedures related to the communications the appropriate personnel involved with our 2008 audit.  We are utilizing additional accounting consultants to assist us in improving our controls and procedures. We believe these measures will benefit us by reducing the likelihood of a similar event occurring in the future.
 
 
·
Subsequent to the filing of the Original report, we determined that we needed to restate the financial statements contained in the Original Report and Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB that we filed for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2009.
 
Due to the quantity and significant of audit adjustments proposed by our independent auditor during their audit of the year ended December 31, 2009.

 
·
Due to our relatively small size and not having present operations, we do not have segregation of duties which is a deficiency in our disclosure controls. We do not presently have the resources to cure this deficiency.

 Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Disclosure controls and procedures are our controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is accumulated and communicated to our management, including principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rules 13-a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Company's principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the Company's board of directors, management and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

* pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company;

* provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorization of management and directors of the Company; and

* provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.


Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009. In making this assessment, management used the criteria established in "Internal Control-Integrated Framework," issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

Based on this assessment, management believes that, as of December 31, 2009, the Company's internal control over financial reporting are no effective due to the material weaknesses noted on the previous page.

Management has not identified any change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2009  and through the date of this report (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
