SECTION 1 - Registrant's Business and Operations

Item 1.01     Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Effective on March 17, 2011, the Board of Directors of Strategic American Oil Corporation (the "Company") ratified the Company's entering into a Consulting Agreement with Geoserve Marketing LLC ("Geoserve"), dated effective as of March 9, 2011 (the "March 2011 Geoserve Agreement"). The March 2011 Geoserve Agreement supersedes the previous consulting agreement that the Company entered into with Geoserve on February 15, 2011, as disclosed in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K as filed with the SEC on February 22, 2011. Geoserve is a company controlled by Michael Watts, who is the father-in-law of Jeremy Driver, a Director and Chief Executive Officer of our Company.  

Pursuant to the March 2011 Geoserve Agreement, Geoserve is to provide consulting services to the Company as an independent contractor for a term of three years. The March 2011 Geoserve Agreement provides that the Company will compensate Geoserve with warrants according to the following schedule: (i) upon signing, Geoserve shall be issued five-year term warrants to purchase 20,000,000 restricted shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.10 per share (previously granted and vested as of the execution of the original agreement on February 15, 2011). If the Company's stock price reaches a five-day average closing price of $0.30 per share, the Company shall grant Geoserve an additional 15,000,000 share purchase warrants at an exercise price of $0.10 per share and a five-year term. If the Company's stock price reaches a five-day average closing price of $0.60 per share, the Company shall grant Geoserve a further 15,000,000 share purchase warrants at an exercise price of $0.10 per share and a five-year term. The Company may terminate the agreement after the first year with thirty days notice.

As previously disclosed in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on February 22, 2011, on February 15, 2011, the Company closed on the acquisition of a private Texas oil and gas company named Galveston Bay Energy, LLC ("GBE"). On March 17, 2011, GBE secured a one year revolving line of credit of up to $5,000,000 with a commercial bank.  The note carries interest at a rate of prime + 1% (currently 6%) with a minimum interest rate of 5%. Interest is payable monthly.  Proceeds from the line of credit must be used solely to enhance the Galveston Bay properties.   The note is collateralized by our Galveston Bay properties and substantially all GBE's assets.  The Company has also executed a parental guarantee of payment.
