Re:           SEC Reserve Evaluation
     Homeland Resources Ltd. Interests
     As of July 31, 2013
 
Dear Sir:
 
Petroleum reserves for certain properties of Homeland Resources Ltd. (“Homeland”) were determined and economic forecasts prepared for the working interests of Homeland.  The properties are located in Garvin County, Oklahoma.  Net Oklahoma reserves herein represent 100 percent proportion of Homeland total reserves.  The assumptions, data, methods and procedures used were appropriate for the purpose served by the reports and we used all methods and procedures as we considered necessary under the circumstances to prepare the reports.

The reserve estimations comply with the definitions of the U.S. Security Exchange Commission.  Reserves are classified as proved developed producing (“PDP”).  Behind-pipe and undeveloped reserves do not exist.  Proved reserves are those reported where the level of certainty is at least 90 percent probable that the quantities actually recovered will equal or exceed the estimates reserves under the specific prices herein.  Probable-pipe reserves do not exist where the level of certainty is at least 50 percent probable that the quantities actually recovered will equal or exceed the estimates reserves under the specific prices herein.  Those quantities were determined using all geologic and engineering methods and procedures as considered necessary under the circumstances to prepare the report.  All assumptions, lease descriptions and holdings, ownership, historical prices, operating lease cost, well planned investments and past production were appropriately presented by Homeland.

For the evaluation, the table below summarizes net proved reserves and cumulative future cash flow (before U.S. federal income tax), undiscounted and discounted at 10 percent per year.

SEC Reserve Evaluation

Page 2 of 3 

Reserves and economic results for each reserve class are attached, along with a one-line summary.  Individual well reserves are presented herein.   Reserve class and well performance graphs are enclosed.

Price/Cost Parameters.  Oil, condensate and gas revenue are based on the average prices for last 12 months for each lease and no escalation.  BTU content, fuel and shrinkage for gas production and the quality of oil production are considered.

Expenses are based on the well operating costs from July 2012 through June 2013.  Expenses are recurring monthly values including G&A.  Operating expenses and investments are not escalated.  Production severance taxes are deducted from revenue.

ASSUMPTIONS
 
No consideration was given to possible changes in operating conditions or actions of governmental regulatory agencies affecting prices.  Interests were accepted as represented.  Discount factors are calculated at mid-year, compounded annually, and applied to yearly lump sum revenues, expenses and investments.

DATA ACQUISITION
 
Homeland and operator, Ranken Energy Corporation (“Ranken”), provided well and reserve information including pressure and production data through July 2013.  Additional production information was obtained on offset wells completed in correlative geologic formations with similar production performance.  During our analysis, we were given access to data as was desired and consulted freely with the officers and employees of Homeland and Ranken.

An examination of the field facilities and operating procedures was not conducted in view of the available data that we had to assess and with our operational experience in Garvin County, Oklahoma.  Data used in the preparation of the evaluation was obtained from the records of the offset operators, public data, private evaluations, Ranken and Homeland.  Basic reservoir and geologic data together with engineering work will be retained on file for review by authorized personnel.

RESERVE DEFINITIONS
 
The determination of the reserves is based on a petroleum engineering evaluation, supported by an independent geologic interpretation that involved direct and indirect characterization and estimates of reservoir properties.  These properties are derived from data available at the time of preparation.  One should not construe that the reserve quantities are exact.  As additional data becomes available or well operating conditions change, the likely oil, condensate or gas recovery of a reservoir may change, and consequently reserve quantities change.

Reserve estimates comply with the definitions of the U. S. Security Exchange Commission (“SEC”).  The reserves and dollars reported herein are not determined for the following purposes: 1) litigation, 2) loan basis, and 3) market value estimate.

EVALUATOR
 
This evaluation was conducted and/or supervised by Mr. Michael Harper, President.  He served on the Board of Directors of the SPE for the term 1986-1989.  He has practiced professional petroleum engineering for 35 years.  Before founding his consulting firm, Harper spent five years involved in condensate and gas evaluations, property appraisals and reservoir engineering with the firm of CG&A, Inc.  His engineering studies involved United States and International areas.  Previously, he had been with Placid Oil Company for 10 years.  There Harper's experience included five years working as senior reserve, production and reservoir engineer at the Placid headquarters in Dallas, Texas.  Fields studied were inland, wetlands and offshore in respective states of Alabama, Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Texas.  Overseas evaluations were prepared on geologic features in the North and the Mediterranean Seas.  His five years of experience, onshore and offshore, were spent in field supervision and the engineering design of workovers and drilling wells.
