Item 3.02  Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
 
On May 15, 2012, Circle Star Energy Corp. (the “Company”) closed a private placement of units to an "Accredited Investor" (as defined in Rule 501(a) of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)).  Under the terms of the private placement, the Company issued 500,000 units at a price of $1.50 per unit. Each unit consists of one share of common stock of the Company and one half common share purchase warrant, each full warrant exercisable to purchase one share of common stock of the Company at $2.75 for a period of three years. $750,000 was raised by the Company in the private placement.
 
The units, shares, warrants and underlying shares of the private placement were not registered under the Securities Act or the laws of any state.  Accordingly, the units, shares, warrants and underlying shares are “restricted securities” (as defined in Rule 144(a)(3) of the Securities Act) and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The shares, warrants and underlying securities were placed pursuant to exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided by Rule 506 of Regulation D and Section 4(2) thereof.
