Nation Energy Inc.

(A Development Stage Company)

Notes to Condensed Financial Statements (Unaudited)

September 30, 2009


Note 1.  Basis of Presentation


The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information.  They do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included in the accompanying unaudited financial statements.  Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.  For further information, refer to the financial statements and notes thereto, included in the Company’s Form 10-K as of and for the year ended March 31, 2009 (“The Annual Report”).


Effective June 1, 2008, the Company sold all of its oil and gas properties in the Smoky Hill area of Alberta and is currently reviewing other prospects.  To implement any new business plan, significant financing will be required and the Company will need to be successful in its efforts to identify, acquire and develop a new business venture.


The Company is currently in the development stage as defined by Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 915-10 “Development Stage Entities” (“ASC 915-10”).  Upon the sale of all of its oil and gas assets, the Company re-entered the development stage effective June 1, 2008. Consequently, its operations are subject to all the risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise.  For the period from inception through June 1, 2009, the Company has an accumulated (deficit) of ($6,839,714) and a (deficit) accumulated during the development stage of ($288,268).


Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for comparative purposes.


Note 2.  Recent Accounting Pronouncements


With the exception of those stated below, there have been no recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements compared to the recent accounting pronouncements described in the Annual Report that are of material significance, or have potential material significance, to the Company.


In April 2009, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) FSP No. FAS 157-4, “Determining Fair Value When the Volume or Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly, as codified in FASB ASC topic “Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure”, which provides additional guidelines for estimating fair value in accordance with FASB SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”).  This FSP is intended to provide additional application guidance and enhanced disclosures regarding fair value measurements and impairments of securities. Adoption did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations and financial disclosures.

 

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168, “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”, as codified in FASB ASC topic “Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”, a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162.  This standard establishes only two levels of GAAP, authoritative and non-authoritative.  This ASC was not intended to change or alter existing GAAP, and the Company’s adoption effective September 1, 2009, did not have any impact on its financial statements other than to modify certain existing disclosures.


In June 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 855 (previously SFAS No. 165, “Subsequent Events”), which establishes general standards for and disclosures of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued or available to be issued.  It is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009.  There was no material impact on the Company’s financial statements, upon the adoption of this standard.


In June 2009, the FASB issued ASC 810 for determining whether to consolidate a variable interest entity.  These amended standards eliminate a mandatory quantitative approach to determine whether a variable interest gives the entity a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity in favour of a qualitatively focused analysis, and require an ongoing reassessment of whether an entity is the primary beneficiary.  This Statement is effective for reporting periods beginning after November 15, 2009.  Adoption of this ASC did not impact our financial statements.


In June 2009, the FASB issued guidance now codified as ASC subtopic 105-10, “Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” as the single source of authoritative accounting principles to be applied by non-government entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, aside from those issued by the SEC. This ASU reflected the issuance of FASB Statement No. 168.   The Codification does not change current U.S. GAAP, but is intended to simplify user access to all authoritative U.S. GAAP by providing all the authoritative literature related to a particular topic in one place.  The Codification is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009, and as of the effective date, all existing accounting standard documents are superseded.  Adoption of this new guidance did not have a material effect on our financial statements.

 

In June 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2009-02, “Omnibus Update—Amendments to Various Topics for Technical Corrections”.  This omnibus ASU detailed amendments to various topics for technical corrections.  The adoption of ASU 2009-02 did not have a material impact on our financial statements.


In August 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-03, “SEC Update — Amendments to Various Topics Containing SEC Staff Accounting Bulletins”.  This ASU updated cross-references to Codification text.  The adoption of ASU 2009-03 did not have a material impact on our financial statements.


In August 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-05, which amends ASC Topic 820, Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value, which provides additional guidance on the measurement of liabilities at fair value.  These amended standards clarify that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liabilities is not available, we are required to use the quoted price of the identical liability when traded as an asset, quoted prices for similar liabilities, or quoted prices for similar liabilities when traded as assets.  If these quoted prices are not available, we are required to use another valuation technique, such as income approach or a market approach.  These amended standards are effective from October 1, 2009, and did not have a significant impact on our financial statements.


In September 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-06, “Income Taxes” (Topic 740), ”Implementation Guidance on Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes and Disclosure Amendments for Non-public Entities”, which provides implementation guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, as well as eliminates certain disclosure requirements for non-public entities.  This update is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations since it provides only implementation and disclosure amendments.


In September 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-07, “Technical Corrections to SEC Paragraphs”.  This corrected various SEC paragraphs in response to comment letters.  The adoption of ASU 2009-07 did not have material impact on our financial statements.


In September 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-12, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) - Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent)”. This ASU amends Subtopic 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures – Overall”, to permit a reporting entity to measure the fair value of certain investments on the basis of the net asset value per share of the investment (or its equivalent). This ASU also requires new disclosures, by major category of investments including the attributes of investments within the scope of this amendment to the Codification. The guidance in this update is effective for interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 2009. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.


In October 2009, the FASB issued guidance on revenue recognition that became effective for the Company beginning April 1, 2010, with earlier adoption permitted.  Under the new guidance on arrangements that include software elements, tangible products that have software components that are essential to the functionality of the tangible product will no longer be within the scope of the software revenue recognition guidance, and software-enabled products will now be subject to other relevant revenue recognition guidance.  In addition, the FASB issued guidance on revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables that are outside the scope of the software revenue recognition guidance.  Under the new guidance, when vendor specific objective evidence or third party evidence for deliverables in an arrangement cannot be determined, a best estimate of the selling price is required to separate deliverables and allocate arrangements consideration using the relative selling price method.  The new guidance includes new disclosure requirements on how the application of the relative selling price method affects the timing and amount of revenue recognition.  Adoption of this new guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements.


In December 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06 “Fair Market Value Measurements and Disclosures” (Topic 820) “Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements”.  This ASU requires some new disclosures and clarifies some existing disclosure requirements about fair value measurement as set forth in ASC Subtopic 820-10.  The FASB’s objective is to improve these disclosures and, thus, increase the transparency in financial reporting.  The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.


In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-03, “Oil and Gas Reserve Estimation and Disclosures” (“ASU 2010-03”), which provides amendments to ASC topic “Extractive Activities-Oil and Gas”. The objective of ASU 2010-03 is to align the oil and gas reserve estimation and disclosure requirements of the ASC with the requirements in the SEC’s “Modernization of Oil and Gas Reporting: Final Rule”. Similar to the SEC requirements, the FASB requirements were effective for periods ending on or after December 31, 2009.  The SEC introduced a new definition of oil and gas producing activities which allows companies to include volumes in their reserve base from unconventional resources.  The FASB also addresses the impact of changes in the SEC’s rules and definitions on accounting for oil and gas producing activities.  Initial adoption did not have an impact on our Company’s financial statements as we disposed of our oil and gas interests effective June 1, 2008 (see Note 5).  


In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-04, “Accounting for Various Topics – Technical Corrections to SEC Paragraphs“. ASU 2010-04 makes technical corrections to existing SEC guidance, including the following topics: accounting for subsequent investments, termination of an interest rate swap, issuance of financial statements - subsequent events, use of residential method to value acquired assets other than goodwill, adjustments in assets and liabilities for holding gains and losses, and selections of discount rate used for measuring defined benefit obligation. The adoption of ASU 2010-04 did not have a material impact on its financial statements.


In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, “Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements” (“ASU 2010-06”), which provides amendments to ASC topic “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”. This will provide more robust disclosures about (i) the different classes of assets and liabilities measured at fair value, (ii) the valuation techniques and inputs used, (iii) the activity in Level 3 fair value measurements, and (iv) the transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3.  ASU 2010-06 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2009.  Adoption did not have a material effect on our financial statements.


In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-09 (ASU 2010-09), "Subsequent Events (Topic 855)."  The amendments remove the requirements for an SEC filer to disclose a date, in both issued and revised financial statements, through which subsequent events have been reviewed.  Revised financial statements include financial statements revised as a result of either correction of an error or retrospective application of U.S. GAAP.  ASU 2010-09 is effective for interim or annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2010.  The provisions of ASU 2010-09 did not have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.


In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-12. “Income Taxes” (Topic 740). ASU No.2010-12 amends FASB Accounting Standard Codification subtopic 740-10 “Income Taxes” to include paragraph 740-10-S99-4. On March 30, 2010 The President signed the “Health Care & Education Affordable Care Act” reconciliation bill that amends its previous Act signed on March 23, 2010. FASB ASC topic 740, “Income Taxes”, requires the measurement of current and deferred tax liabilities and assets to be based on provisions of enacted tax law. The effects of future changes in tax laws are not anticipated.” Therefore, the different enactment dates of the Act and reconciliation measure may affect registrants with a period-end that falls between March 23, 2010 (enactment date of the Act), and March 30, 2010 (enactment date of the reconciliation measure). However, the announcement states that the SEC would not object if such registrants were to account for the enactment of both the Act and the reconciliation measure in a period ending on or after March 23, 2010, but notes that the SEC staff “does not believe that it would be appropriate for registrants to analogize to this view in any other fact patterns.” The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.


In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-14, "Accounting for Extractive Activities — Oil & Gas."  ASU 2010-14 amends paragraph 932-10-S99-1 due to SEC Release No. 33-8995, "Modernization of Oil and Gas Reporting”.  The amendments to the guidance on oil and gas accounting are effective August 31, 2010, and did not have a significant impact on the Company's financial position, as effective June 1, 2008, the Company sold its oil and gas properties in the Smoky Hill Area of Alberta, Canada (see Note 5).


In May 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-19 (ASU 2010-19), “Foreign Currency (Topic 830): Foreign Currency Issues: Multiple Foreign Currency Exchange Rates”. The amendments in this update are effective as of the announcement date of March 18, 2010. The provisions of ASU 2010-19 did not have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

On August 2, 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-21, “Accounting for Technical Amendments to Various SEC Rules and Schedules—Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to Release No. 33-9026: Technical Amendments to Rules, Forms, Schedules and Codification of Financial Reporting Policies.” The ASU reflects changes made by the SEC in Final Rulemaking Release No. 33-9026 , which was issued in April 2009 and amended SEC requirements in Regulation S-X ( 17 CFR 210.1-01 et seq.) and Regulation S-K ( 17 CFR 229.10 et seq.) and made changes to financial reporting requirements in response to the FASB's issuance of SFAS No. 141(R) , “Business Combinations” (ASC 805), and SFAS No. 160  “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements—an amendment of ARB No. 51” ( FASB ASC 810 ).   The provisions of ASU 2010-21 did not have a material impact on its financial statements.

The FAS issued ASU 2010-29 “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations”, effective for periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010. This amendment affects any public entity as defined bt Topic 805, “Business Combinations” that enters into business combinations that are material on an individual or aggregate basis. The comparative financial statements should present and disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination that occurred in the current period had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only.  The amendment also expands the supplemental pro forma disclosures to include a description of the nature and amount of material, non-recurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. The adoption of  ASU 2010-29 will not have a material impact on our financial statements.


There were various other updates recently issued, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries and are not expected to a have a material impact on the Company's  financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Our Current Business

Sale of Bolton Property

On September 18, 2008, Nation Energy, Netco Energy Inc., and EnCana entered into a Petroleum, Natural Gas and Related Rights Conveyance pursuant to which Nation and Netco sold all of their interests in the leases and lands comprising the Bolton Property to EnCana.  As a condition of the agreement, EnCana agreed to terminate the payable owing by Nation to EnCana as successor in interest to Churchill Energy (as successor to Accrete Energy, Olympia Energy’s successor) pursuant to a participation agreement between the parties dated November 21, 2001.  In connection with the sale of the Bolton properties on September 26, 2008 we entered into a termination agreement with EnCana pursuant to which we agreed to terminate the Joint Operating Agreement between Nation, High Point Resources Inc. and Churchill Energy (as Olympia Energy’s successor) effective June 1, 2008 and assigned all of our rights under all operating contracts relating to the Bolton Property to EnCana.  The sale of the oil and gas assets closed on September 30, 2008 with a second closing in April 2009 for total net proceeds to Nation of CDN $1,102,939 (US $1,158,710).  

The proceeds of the sale of the Bolton Property were used to partially repay amounts owed to Caravel Management Corp. in accounts payable and under a promissory note dated March 31, 2006 in the amount of CDN $980,905 (US $840,464).  Caravel Management Corp, is a private management services company wholly-owned by our sole director and officer.  As of September 30, 2009, the remaining principal and accrued interest due to Caravel totalled CDN $470,104 (US $438,074). As of December 31, 2010, our balance due to Caravel under this obligation was CDN $659,093 (US $662,671).

We currently have no business and operate as a shell company.  We are in the process of evaluating the merits of joint venture opportunities in the resource sector.  

General

The following is a discussion and analysis of our plan of operation for the six month period ended September 30, 2009, and the factors that could affect our future financial condition.  This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our unaudited financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this quarterly report.  

Plan of Operation

For the next twelve months we plan to continue to evaluate joint venture opportunities and oil and gas development and production opportunities.  

Cash Requirements During the Next Twelve Months

Over the next twelve months we intend to use funds to evaluate new business acquisitions, as follows:


General and Administrative

$70,000

  

Professional Fees

60,000

   
  

Total

$130,000

We have suffered recurring losses from operations prior to fiscal 2005.  The continuation of our company as a going concern is dependent upon our company attaining and maintaining profitable operations and raising additional capital as needed.  Management’s plan in this regard is to raise additional capital through a debt or an equity offering.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should our company discontinue operations.  

Due to the uncertainty of our ability to meet our current operating expenses noted above, in their report on the annual financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2009, our independent auditors included an explanatory paragraph regarding concerns about our ability to continue as a going concern.  Our financial statements contain additional note disclosure describing the circumstances that lead to this disclosure by our independent auditors.

The continuation of our business is dependent upon obtaining further financing, a successful program of exploration, and, finally achieving a profitable level of operations.  The issuance of additional equity securities by us could result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders.  Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments.  

There are no assurances that we will be able to obtain further funds required for our continued operations.  We are pursuing various financing alternatives to meet our immediate and long-term financial requirements.  There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available to us when needed or, if available, that it can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms.  If we are not able to obtain the additional financing on a timely basis, we will be unable to conduct our operations as planned and we will not be able to meet our other obligations as they become due.  In such event, we will be forced to scale down or perhaps even cease our operations.

Disclosure of Outstanding Share Data

As at the date of this quarterly report, we had 16,020,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.  We do not have any warrants, options or shares of any other class issued and outstanding as at the date of this quarterly report.

Operating Activities

Net cash (used in) operating activities was ($11,723) in the six months ended September 30, 2009 compared with net cash provided by operating activities of $2,552 in the same period in 2008.  The increase in cash used in operating activities of $14,275 is mainly attributed to an increase in accounts receivable and a decrease in accounts payable, partially offset by an  increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses – related party.  Net income for the six months ended September 30, 2009 decreased to a loss of ($88,903) compared to net income of $325,828 for the six months ended September 30, 2008, primarily due to the net gain on debt relief in the prior period..

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was ($53,190) in six months ended September 30, 2009 compared to $Nil in the same period in 2008.  The difference resulted from a payment on the loan of $53,190 during the period ended September 30, 2009.  

Loans Payable

On March 31, 2006, we entered into a revised loan agreement with a related party.  The loan bears interest at 15% per annum, calculated and compounded monthly and payable quarterly.  Any principal amount outstanding under the loan is payable upon demand.  The loan payable is in Canadian dollars and is secured by a Promissory Note.  As of September 30, 2009, the balance of the loan and accrued interest payable was $438,074 compared to $409,560 at March 31, 2009.  

After subsequent payments made and additional proceeds granted, along with accrued interest our balance due to Caravel at December 31, 2010 was CDN $659,093 (US $662,671).

Going Concern

The audited financial statements accompanying our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2009 have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that our company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.  Our company has incurred losses since inception in excess of $7 million and has only generated modest profitable operations when we commenced gas production in fiscal 2006.  We have relied solely on the shareholder advances to participate and continue operations.  

Our company’s ability to continue as a going concern is contingent upon being able to secure financing and attain profitable operations.  Our company is currently evaluating business opportunities and will require financing for the acquisition of any new business venture.    

We entered into bridge loan agreements with a related party in 2003 and 2004 to fund operations.  The terms of these bridge loan agreements provided that any principal amount outstanding is payable upon demand and bears interest at 15% per annum, payable quarterly.  On March 31, 2006, we consolidated and restructured our loans with the related party.  As part of the restructuring, we borrowed an additional CDN $250,000 (US $203,932).  The new loan bears interest at 15% per annum, calculated and compounded monthly and is payable quarterly.  Any principal amount outstanding under the loan is payable upon demand.  The loan is payable in Canadian dollars and is secured by a Promissory Note.   

At December 31, 2010 the balance of the principal and accrued interest was CDN $659,093 (US $662,671).

We have limited operating history.  We can only estimate future needs for capital based on the current status of our operations, our current plans and current economic condition.  Due to the uncertainties regarding our future activities, we are unable to predict precisely what amount will be used for any particular purpose.  

Future Financings   

As of December 31, 2010, we had cash of CDN $13,666 (US $13,456).  We currently do not have sufficient funds to acquire and develop any future joint ventures.  We anticipate continuing to rely on shareholder loans or equity sales of our common stock in order to fund our business operations.   Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to our existing stockholders.  There is no assurance that we will achieve any additional sales of our equity or arrange for more debt or other financing to fund any future activities.  

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no  off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.

As required by Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, our principal executive officer and financial officer evaluated our company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as define in Rules 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report.  Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and financial officer concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, these disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by our company in reports it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities Exchange Commission and to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our company’s management, including our principal executive officer and financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  The conclusion that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective was due to the presence of the following material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting which are indicative of many small companies with small staff:  (i) lack of a sufficient number of independent directors for our board and audit committee.  We currently have no independent director on our board, which is comprised of one director.  As a publicly-traded company, we strive to have a majority of our board of directors be independent; (ii) inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment; and (iii) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of both United States generally accepted accounting principles and Securities and Exchange Commission guidelines.  Management anticipates that such disclosure controls and procedures will not be effective until the material weaknesses are remediated.

We plan to take steps to enhance and improve the design of our internal controls over financial reporting.  During the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10Q, we have not been able to remediate the material weaknesses identified above.  To remediate such weaknesses, we plan to implement the following changes during our fiscal year ending March 31, 2010, subject to obtaining additional financing:  (i) appoint qualified personnel to address inadequate segregation of duties and ineffective risk management; and (ii) adopt sufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting.  The remediation efforts set out above are largely dependent upon our securing additional financing to cover the costs of implementing the changes required.  If we are unsuccessful in securing such funds, remediation efforts may be adversely affected in a material manner.

It should be noted that while our management believes our disclosure controls and procedures provide a reasonable level of assurance, they do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud.  A control system, no matter how well conceived or operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.  Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.  Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected.  These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.  Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls.  The design of any system of internal control is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.  Over time controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.   Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three month period ended September 30, 2008 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We know of no material, existing or pending legal proceedings against our company, nor are we involved as a plaintiff in any material proceeding or pending litigation.  There are no proceedings in which any of our director and officer or affiliates, or any registered or beneficial stockholder is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest.

ITEM 1A.  RISK FACTORS

Much of the information included in this quarterly report includes or is based upon estimates, projections or other "forward looking statements".  Such forward looking statements include any projections or estimates made by us and our management in connection with our past or future business operations.  While these forward-looking statements, and any assumptions upon which they are based, are made in good faith and reflect our current judgement regarding the direction of our business, actual results will almost always vary, sometimes materially, from any estimates, predictions, projections, assumptions or other future performance suggested herein.

Such estimates, projections or other "forward looking statements" involve various risks and uncertainties as outlined below.  We caution the reader that important factors in some cases have affected and, in the future, could materially affect actual results and cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed in any such estimates, projections or other "forward looking statements".

Our shares of common stock are considered speculative while we continue our search for a new business opportunity.  Prospective investors should consider carefully the risk factors set out below.

Because of the early stage of development and the nature of our business, our securities are considered highly speculative.

Our securities must be considered highly speculative, generally because of the nature of our business and the early stage of our development. We were engaged in the business of exploring and, if warranted, developing commercial reserves of oil and gas. Our properties were in the exploration, development and production stage and had proven reserves of oil and gas as of June 30, 2007.  Accordingly, we realized limited revenues and profit from our operations.  Any profitability in the future will be dependent upon acquiring a new business opportunity.  Effective June 1, 2008. we sold our oil and gas assets and re-entered the development stage.


The Company is categorized as a “shell company” as that term is used in the Commission’s rules.

The Commission’s rules prohibit the use of Form S-8 by a shell company, and require a shell company to file a Form 8-K to report the same type of information that would be required if it were filing to register a class of securities under the Exchange Act whenever the shell company is reporting the event that caused it to cease being a shell company. Being a shell company may adversely impact our ability to offer our stock to officers, directors and consultants, and thereby make it more difficult to attract and retain qualified individuals to perform services for the Company, and will likely increase the costs of registration compliance following the completion of a business combination.

A decline in the price of our common stock could affect our ability to raise further working capital and adversely impact our operations.

A prolonged decline in the price of our common stock could result in a reduction in the liquidity of our common stock and a reduction in our ability to raise capital.  Any reduction in our ability to raise equity capital in the future could have a significant negative effect on our business plans and our ability to develop new products.  If our stock price declines, we may not be able to raise additional capital sufficient to acquire new business.

Our accounts are subject to currency fluctuations which may materially affect our financial position and results of operations.

We maintain our accounts in US and Canadian currencies and are therefore subject to currency fluctuations and such fluctuations may materially affect our financial position and results of operations. We do not engage in currency hedging activities.

We may not be able to manage the significant strains that future growth may place on our administration infrastructure, systems and controls.

In the event we are able to acquire a new joint venture and experience any rapid expansion over current levels, we could experience rapid growth in revenues, personnel, complexity of administration and in other areas.  There can be no assurance that we will be able to manage the significant strains that future growth may place on our administrative infrastructure, systems, and controls.  If we are unable to manage future growth effectively, our business, operating results and financial condition may be materially adversely affected.

The loss of John Hislop would have an adverse impact on future development and could impair our ability to succeed.

We are dependent on our ability to hire and retain highly skilled and qualified personnel. We face competition for qualified personnel from numerous industry sources, and there can be no assurance that we will be able to attract and retain qualified personnel on acceptable terms. We do not have key man insurance on our employees. The loss of service of Mr. Hislop could have a material adverse effect on our operations or financial condition.

Our management currently engages in other oil and gas businesses and, as a result, conflicts could arise.

In addition to their interest in our company, our management currently engages, and intends to engage in the future, in the oil and gas business independently of our company. As a result, conflicts of interest between us and management of our company might arise.

Trading of our stock may be restricted by the SEC’s “Penny Stock” regulations which may limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock.

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted regulations which generally define “penny stock” to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions.  Our securities are covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to person other than established customers and “accredited investors.”  The term “accredited investor” refers generally to institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse.  The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market.  The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account.  The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and sales person compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer’s confirmation.  In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules; the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction.  These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules.  Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities.  We believe that the penny stock rules discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of our common stock.

The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or FINRA, has adopted sales practice requirements which may also limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock.

In addition to the “penny stock” rules described above, FINRA has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer.  Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information.  Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers.  FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares.

Since our shares are thinly traded, and trading on the OTC Bulletin Board may be limited and sporadic because it is not an exchange, stockholders may have difficulty reselling their shares or liquidating their investments.

Our shares of common stock are currently listed for public trading on the Pink OTC Markets Inc.   The trading price of our shares of common stock has been subject to wide fluctuations.  Trading prices of our shares of common stock may fluctuate in response to a number of factors, many of which will be beyond our control.  The stock market has generally experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of companies with no current business operation.  There can be no assurance that trading prices and price earnings ratios previously experienced by our shares of common stock will be matched or maintained.  These broad market and industry factors may adversely affect the market price of our shares of common stock, regardless of our operating performance.

In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company's securities, securities class-action litigation has often been instituted.  Such litigation, if instituted, could result in substantial costs for us and a diversion of management's attention and resources.

Our By-laws contain provisions indemnifying our officers and directors against all costs, charges and expenses incurred by them.

Our By-laws contain provisions with respect to the indemnification of our officers and directors against all costs, charges and expenses, including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment, actually and reasonably incurred by him, including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgement in a civil, criminal or administrative action or proceeding to which he is made a party by reason of his being or having been one of our directors or officers to  the maximum extent permitted by Wyoming law.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of our company under Wyoming law or otherwise, we have been advised that the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission is that such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable.

Investors’ interests in our company will be diluted and investors may suffer dilution in their net book value per share if we issue additional shares or raise funds through the sale of equity securities.

Our constating documents authorize the issuance of 50,000,000 shares of common stock, each with a par value of $0.001.  In the event that we are required to issue any additional shares or enter into private placements to raise financing through the sale of equity securities, investors' interests in our company will be diluted and investors may suffer dilution in their net book value per share depending on the price at which such securities are sold.  If we issue any such additional shares, such issuances also will cause a reduction in the proportionate ownership and voting power of all other shareholders.  Further, any such issuance may result in a change in our control.

Our by-laws do not contain anti-takeover provisions which could result in a change of our management and directors if there is a take-over of our company.

We do not currently have a shareholder rights plan or any anti-takeover provisions in our By-laws.  Without any anti-takeover provisions, there is no deterrent for a take-over of our company, which may result in a change in our management and directors.

Since our director and officer is not a resident of the United States, investors may find it difficult to enforce, within the United States, any judgments obtained against our company or our director and officer.

We do not currently maintain a permanent place of business within the United States. In addition, our director and officer is not a resident of the United States.  As a result, it may be difficult for investors to enforce within the United States any judgments obtained against our company or our officers or directors, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof.
