RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

APRIL 22, 2008 REVERSE STOCK SPLIT

On April 1,  2008,  our  Board of  Directors  pursuant  to a Board of  Directors
meeting  authorized  and approved a reverse  stock split of one for three of our
total issued and outstanding shares of common stock (the "Reverse Stock Split").

The Reverse Stock Split was  effectuated  based on market  conditions and upon a
determination  by our Board of Directors that the Reverse Stock Split was in our
best interests and of the shareholders. Certain factors were discussed among the
members of the Board of  Directors  concerning  the need for the  Reverse  Stock
Split,  including  the  increased  potential  for  financing.  The intent of the
Reverse Stock Split is to increase the marketability of our common stock.

The  Reverse  Stock  Split was  effectuated  on April 22,  2008 upon  filing the
appropriate  documentation  with NASDAQ.  The Reverse Stock Split  decreased our
total  issued  and  outstanding  shares  of  common  stock  from  41,976,591  to
approximately  13,992,197 shares of common stock. The common stock will continue
to be $0.001 par value.

TRANSFER AGENT

Our transfer agent is Transfer  Online,  Inc., 317 S.W. Alder Street,  2nd Floor

CURRENT BUSINESS OPERATIONS

We are a natural resource  exploration and production  company currently engaged
in the exploration, acquisition and development of oil and gas properties in the
United States and within North  America.  Our primary  activity and focus is our
leases in New Mexico (the "New Mexico  Prospect").  The leases are  unproven and
were acquired for  approximately  $338,000.  We have leased  various  properties
totaling  approximately  7,576 net acres  within  the State of New  Mexico for a
five-year term in  consideration  for $112,883.  We have a 100% working interest
and an 84.5% net revenue  interest in the leases.  In addition we have  acquired
leases  in  Texas  (the  "Quachita   Prospect").   To  date,  we  have  acquired
approximately  1,971 net acres  within the  Quachita  Prospect  for a three-year
term.  We acquired a 100%  working  interest  and a 77% net revenue  interest in
natural gas targeted Quachita Prospect leases.  The leases are unproven and were
acquired for approximately $338,000.

OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES

The acreage and location of our oil and gas properties is summarized as follows:

                         NET ACRES(*)

     Texas                  1,971
     New Mexico             7,576
                            _____
          Total:            9,547

(*)  Certain of our  interests  in our oil and gas  properties  may be less than
     100%.  Accordingly,  we  have  presented  the  acreage  of our  oil and gas
     properties on a net acre basis.


                                       5



QUACHITA PROSPECT

As of the date of this Annual  Report,  we lease  approximately  1,971 net acres
within  the  Quachita  Trend  in the  State of Texas  for a  three-year  term in
consideration of approximately  $338,000.  We have a 100% working interest and a
77% net revenue interest in the Quachita Prospect leases.

BOGGS #1 WELL.  We completed  the drilling  portion of the Boggs #1 well on July
13, 2007. Subsequently,  we began production testing and evaluation of the well.
Of the five tested zones, four produced  significant  volumes of natural gas. As
formation water was also produced with the natural gas in the tested zones,  the
Boggs #1 is currently under evaluation. We intend to secure all immediate rights
relating to oil and gas in the areas providing  control over any potential major
structural play that develops as a result of this in-depth exploration.

The Boggs #1 had been privately  funded with the funding  investors  receiving a
75% working  interest and a 54% net revenue  interest in exchange for  providing
100% of all drilling and completion costs.  Therefore,  we initially  retained a
25% working  interest and a 23% net revenue interest in the Boggs #1 well. As of
December 31, 2008, we incurred  $1,357,208 in drilling and completion  costs. As
of December  31,  2008,  we had  received a total of  $759,000  in funding  from
private  investors.  On March 24, 2008, we negotiated with the funding investors
to acquire their interest in the Boggs #1 for $759,000 (which amount is equal to
the total amount of the funding investors'  initial  investment) and forgiveness
of any additional  amounts owing.  Effective on March 24, 2008, we completed the
acquisition   and   settlement   through  the  issuance  of   1,265,000   shares
(Post-Reverse  Stock Split) of our  restricted  common stock at $0.63 per share.
The difference between the estimated fair value of the common shares at issuance
and the amount of the debt  settled  totaling  $37,950 was recorded as a finance
cost. See "Item 5. Market for Registrant's  Common Equity,  Related  Stockholder
Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities.

NEW MEXICO PROSPECT

As of the date of this Annual Report,  we have leased various  properties in the
New Mexico Prospect totaling  approximately  7,576 net acres within the State of
New Mexico for a five year term in  consideration  for $112,883.  We have a 100%
working interest and an 87.5% net revenue interest in the leases  comprising the
New Mexico Prospect.

WESTROCK LAND CORP. OPTION  AGREEMENT.  Effective on October 31, 2008, our Board
of  Directors  authorized  the  execution  of an option  agreement  (the "Option
Agreement") with Westrock Land Corp, a private Texas  corporation  ("Westrock").
In  accordance  with the terms  and  provisions  of the  Option  Agreement:  (i)
Westrock owns all right,  title and interest in and to  approximately  7,763 net
acres of property within the State of New Mexico with a net revenue  interest of
81.5%  pertaining  to 5,746 of the net acres and a 78.5%  net  revenue  interest
pertaining  to 2,017 net acres (the "New Mexico  Leases");  (b)  Westrock has an
option  until June 23,  2009 to  exercise a five year lease at $100 per net acre
for  acquisition  of the 2,017  net  acres;  (iii) we  desire to  acquire a 100%
working  interest  in the New  Mexico  Leases at $50.00 per net acre for a total
purchase price of approximately  $388,150; and (iv) we have until April 16, 2009
to complete our due diligence (the "Option Period").


                                       6



It is anticipated that in the event the due diligence is completed  satisfactory
to us, the  effective  date of  conveyance  of the  working  interest in the New
Mexico Leases to us will occur on approximately April 16, 2009.

PROPOSED FUTURE BUSINESS OPERATIONS

Our strategy is to complete the further  acquisition  of additional  oil and gas
opportunities  that fall within the criteria of providing a geological basis for
development of drilling initiatives that can provide near term revenue potential
and fast drilling  capital  repatriation  from  production  cash flows to create
expanding reserves. We anticipate that our ongoing efforts,  subject to adequate
funding being available,  will continue to be focused on successfully concluding
negotiations for additional  tracts of prime acreage in the coal bed methane and
other gas  producing  domains,  and to  implement  the  drilling of new wells to
develop reserves and to provide  revenues.  We plan to build a strategic base of
proven reserves and production.

Our ability to continue to complete  planned  exploration  activities and expand
land  acquisitions and explore  drilling  opportunities is dependent on adequate
capital  resources  being available and further sources of debt and equity being
obtained.  The  two  following  alternatives  provide  the  basis  for  business
development options:

DEVELOPMENT OF CURRENT LEASES

The requirement to raise further funding for oil and gas exploration beyond that
obtained  for the next six month  period  continues  to depend on the outcome of
geological and engineering testing occurring over this interval.  Based upon the
completion of current  property  evaluations  on the Quachita  Prospect,  and if
results  provide  the  basis to  continue  development  and  geological  studies
indicate high probabilities of sufficient production quantities, we will attempt
to raise capital to further our drilling program to establish up to six wells on
leases  in  hand,  build  production  infrastructure  and  pipeline,  and  raise
additional  capital for  drilling on the New Mexico  Prospect  and further  land
acquisitions. This has included the following activity:

     o    Site preparation for entry into current  wellbores  including  roadway
          upgrade and operations  site,  design,  review,  and finalize  testing
          procedures,  book  zone  fracture  and  testing  consultants,  arrange
          equipment required.

     o    Pull old well  tubing,  run test tools in  wellbore,  cut well casing,
          test target gas zones with acid and water.

     o    If gas content  conducive to  production,  complete  well by inserting
          downhole pump and rods, set pumping unit, wellhead, and gas line.

     o    Complete pipeline.

     o    Create well  development  model and  investment  documents  to develop
          wells on subject leases including funding plan.


                                       7



     o    Create investor communications materials, corporate identity.

     o    Raise funding for well development.

     o    Drill,  complete, and produce from well drilling program and selective
          re-entry programs.

     o    Target  further  leases for  exploration  potential and obtain further
          funding to acquire new development targets.

NEW LEASE ACQUISITION AND DEVELOPMENT

If gas  quality  and  quantities  are  not  deemed  sufficient  from  work to be
conducted  on our  current  leases  during  the first six  months of  operation,
additional land  acquisitions  will be assessed and obtained subject to adequate
capital  resources  being available and further sources of debt and equity being
obtained.  The  following  outlines  anticipated  activities  pursuant  to  this
business option.

     o    Site preparation for entry into current  wellbores  including  roadway
          upgrade and operations  site,  design,  review,  and finalize  testing
          procedures,  book  zone  fracture  and  testing  consultants,  arrange
          equipment required.

     o    Pull old well  tubing,  run test tools in  wellbore,  cut well casing,
          test target gas zones with acid and water,

     o    If gas content not deemed  conducive  to  production,  target  further
          leases for exploration potential and obtain further funding to acquire
          new development targets.

We will require  additional  funding to implement our proposed  future  business
activities.  See "Item 7.  Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis of  Financial
Condition and Results of Operation."

We do not expect to purchase any significant equipment or increase significantly
the number of our employees during the next twelve months.  Our current business
strategy is to obtain resources under contract where possible because management
believes that this strategy,  at its current level of development,  provides the
best services available in the circumstances,  leads to lower overall costs, and
provides the best flexibility for our business operations.

COMPETITION

We operate in a highly  competitive  industry,  competing with major oil and gas
companies,  independent  producers and institutional  and individual  investors,
which are actively seeking oil and gas properties  throughout the world together
with the equipment, labor and materials required to operate properties.  Most of
our competitors have financial  resources,  staffs and facilities  substantially
greater than ours.  The principal  area of  competition  is  encountered  in the
financial  ability to acquire good acreage  positions and drill wells to explore
for oil and  gas,  then,  if  warranted,  drill  production  wells  and  install
production  equipment.  Competition  for the acquisition of oil and gas wells is


                                       8



intense with many oil and gas properties and/or leases or concessions  available
in a competitive bidding process in which we may lack technological  information
or expertise available to other bidders.  Therefore, we may not be successful in
acquiring and developing  profitable properties in the face of this competition.
No assurance can be given that a sufficient number of suitable oil and gas wells
will be available for acquisition and development.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION

The production and sale of oil and gas are subject to various federal, state and
local  governmental  regulations,  which  may be  changed  from  time to time in
response to economic or political  conditions and can have a significant  impact
upon overall operations. Matters subject to regulation include discharge permits
for drilling  operations,  drilling bonds,  reports concerning  operations,  the
spacing of wells, unitization and pooling of properties,  taxation,  abandonment
and restoration  and  environmental  protection.  These laws and regulations are
under constant review for amendment or expansion.  From time to time, regulatory
agencies  have  imposed  price   controls  and   limitations  on  production  by
restricting  the  rate of flow of oil and  gas  wells  below  actual  production
capacity  in  order  to  conserve  supplies  of oil and  gas.  Changes  in these
regulations could require us to expend significant  resources to comply with new
laws or regulations or changes to current requirements and could have a material
adverse effect on our business operations.

REGULATION OF OIL AND NATURAL GAS PRODUCTION

Our oil and natural gas  exploration,  production  and  related  operations  are
subject to extensive  rules and  regulations  promulgated by federal,  state and
local  authorities  and  agencies.   Failure  to  comply  with  such  rules  and
regulations can result in substantial  penalties.  The regulatory  burden on the
oil and natural gas industry  increases  our cost of doing  business and affects
our profitability. Although we believe we are in substantial compliance with all
applicable  laws  and  regulations,  because  such  rules  and  regulations  are
frequently amended or reinterpreted, we are unable to predict the future cost or
impact of complying with such laws.

Many states require permits for drilling operations,  drilling bonds and reports
concerning  operations and impose other requirements relating to the exploration
and  production  of oil and  natural  gas.  Such  states  also have  statutes or
regulations  addressing  conservation  matters,  including  provisions  for  the
unitization or pooling of oil and natural gas properties,  the  establishment of
maximum rates of production from wells, and the regulation of spacing,  plugging
and abandonment of such wells.

FEDERAL REGULATION OF NATURAL GAS

The Federal Energy Regulatory  Commission ("FERC") regulates  interstate natural
gas transportation  rates and service conditions,  which affect the marketing of
natural gas produced by us, as well as the revenues  received by us for sales of
such production.  Since the mid-1980's,  FERC has issued a series of orders that
have  significantly  altered the  marketing and  transportation  of natural gas.
These orders mandate a fundamental  restructuring  of interstate  pipeline sales
and transportation service,  including the unbundling by interstate pipelines of
the sale,  transportation,  storage and other  components of the city-gate sales
services such pipelines previously performed.  One of FERC's purposes in issuing
the orders was to  increase  competition  within all phases of the  natural  gas


                                       9



industry. Certain aspects of these orders may be modified as a result of various
appeals and related  proceedings  and it is  difficult  to predict the  ultimate
impact of the  orders on us and  others.  Generally,  the  orders  eliminate  or
substantially reduce the interstate  pipelines'  traditional role as wholesalers
of natural gas in favor of providing  only storage and  transportation  service,
and have  substantially  increased  competition  and  volatility  in natural gas
markets.

The price,  which we may receive  for the sale of oil and  natural gas  liquids,
would be affected  by the cost of  transporting  products  to markets.  FERC has
implemented regulations establishing an indexing system for transportation rates
for oil  pipelines,  which,  generally,  would  index such  rates to  inflation,
subject to certain  conditions and limitations.  We are not able to predict with
certainty the effect,  if any, of these  regulations  on any future  operations.
However,  the regulations may increase  transportation  costs or reduce wellhead
prices for oil and natural gas liquids.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

Our operations and properties will be subject to extensive and changing federal,
state and local  laws and  regulations  relating  to  environmental  protection,
including  the  generation,  storage,  handling,  emission,  transportation  and
discharge of materials into the environment,  and relating to safety and health.
The recent trend in environmental legislation and regulation generally is toward
stricter  standards,  and  this  trend  will  likely  continue.  These  laws and
regulations may (i) require the  acquisition of a permit or other  authorization
before construction or drilling commences and for certain other activities; (ii)
limit or prohibit  construction,  drilling and other activities on certain lands
lying within wilderness and other protected areas; and (iii) impose  substantial
liabilities for pollution  resulting from our operations.  The permits  required
for  several of our  operations  are  subject to  revocation,  modification  and
renewal  by  issuing  authorities.  Governmental  authorities  have the power to
enforce their  regulations,  and violations are subject to fines or injunctions,
or both. In the opinion of  management,  we are in substantial  compliance  with
current  applicable  environmental law and regulations,  and we have no material
commitments  for  capital  expenditures  to comply with  existing  environmental
requirements.   Nevertheless,   changes  in  existing   environmental  laws  and
regulations or in interpretations thereof could have a significant impact on our
business operations, as well as the oil and natural gas industry in general.

The  Comprehensive  Environmental,  Response,  Compensation,  and  Liability Act
("CERCL ") and  comparable  state  statutes  impose  strict,  joint and  several
liabilities  on owners and  operators of sites and on persons who disposed of or
arranged for the disposal of "hazardous  substances"  found at such sites. It is
not  uncommon for the  neighboring  landowners  and other third  parties to file
claims for personal injury and property damage allegedly caused by the hazardous
substances released into the environment.  The Federal Resource Conservation and
Recovery Act  ("RCRA")  and  comparable  state  statutes  govern the disposal of
"solid waste" and "hazardous  waste" and authorize the imposition of substantial
fines and  penalties  for  noncompliance.  Although  CERCLA  currently  excludes
petroleum from its definition of "hazardous substance," state laws affecting our
operations impose clean-up liability relating to petroleum and petroleum related
products.  In addition,  although  RCRA  classifies  certain oil field wastes as
"non-hazardous," such exploration and production wastes could be reclassified as
a  hazardous  wastes,  thereby  making  such  wastes  subject to more  stringent
handling and disposal requirements.


                                       10



We intend to acquire leasehold  interests in properties that for many years have
produced oil and natural gas.  Although the previous  owners of these  interests
may have  used  operating  and  disposal  practices  that were  standard  in the
industry at the time,  hydrocarbons or other wastes may have been disposed of or
released on or under the properties.  In addition, some of our properties may be
operated  in the  future  by  third  parties  over  which  we have  no  control.
Notwithstanding  our lack of control  over  properties  operated by others,  the
failure of the operator to comply with applicable environmental regulations may,
in certain circumstances, adversely impact our business operations.

The  National  Environmental  Policy Act ("NEPA") is  applicable  to many of our
planned  activities and operations.  NEPA is a broad procedural statute intended
to ensure that  federal  agencies  consider  the  environmental  impact of their
actions by requiring such agencies to prepare  environmental  impact  statements
("EIS") in connection with all federal activities that significantly  affect the
environment.  Although  NEPA is a  procedural  statute  only  applicable  to the
federal  government,  a portion  of our  properties  may be  acreage  located on
federal land. The Bureau of Land  Management's  issuance of drilling permits and
the  Secretary  of the  Interior's  approval  of plans of  operation  and  lease
agreements all constitute federal action within the scope of NEPA. Consequently,
unless the responsible  agency determines that our drilling  activities will not
materially  impact the environment,  the responsible  agency will be required to
prepare an EIS in conjunction with the issuance of any permit or approval.

The  Endangered  Species Act  ("ESA")  seeks to ensure  that  activities  do not
jeopardize endangered or threatened animals, fish and plant species, nor destroy
or modify the  critical  habitat of such  species.  Under ESA,  exploration  and
production  operation,   as  well  as  actions  by  federal  agencies,  may  not
significantly  impair or jeopardize the species or their  habitat.  ESA provides
for criminal  penalties for willful  violations of the Act.  Other statutes that
provide  protection  to  animal  and  plant  species  and that may  apply to our
operations  include,  but are not necessarily  limited to, the Fish and Wildlife
Coordination  Act, the Fishery  Conservation  and Management  Act, the Migratory
Bird Treaty Act and the National Historic  Preservation Act. Although we believe
that our operations are in substantial compliance with such statutes, any change
in these  statutes  or any  reclassification  of a species as  endangered  could
subject us to  significant  expense to modify our  operations  or could force to
discontinue certain operations altogether.

Management  believes  that  we  are  in  substantial   compliance  with  current
applicable environmental laws and regulations.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES

No research  and  development  expenditures  have been  incurred,  either on our
account or sponsored by customers, to the date of our inception.


                                       11



EMPLOYEES

We do not employ any  persons on a  full-time  or on a  part-time  basis.  Peter
Wilson is our President/Chief  Executive Officer and William Thomas is our Chief
Financial Officer/Treasurer. These individuals are primarily responsible for all
of our day-to-day  operations.  Other  services are provided by outsourcing  and
consultant and special purpose contracts.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

An investment in our common stock involves a number of very  significant  risks.
You should carefully  consider the following risks and uncertainties in addition
to  other  information  in  evaluating  our  company  and  its  business  before
purchasing  shares of our common  stock.  Our  business,  operating  results and
financial condition could be seriously harmed due to any of the following risks.
The risks  described  below are all of the material  risks that we are currently
aware of that are facing our company. Additional risks not presently known to us
may also  impair  our  business  operations.  You could lose all or part of your
investment due to any of these risks.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

WE WILL NEED TO RAISE ADDITIONAL FINANCING TO COMPLETE FURTHER EXPLORATION.

We will  require  significant  additional  financing  in order to  continue  our
exploration activities and our assessment of the commercial viability of our oil
and  gas  properties.  Furthermore,  if the  costs  of our  planned  exploration
programs  are greater than  anticipated,  we may have to seek  additional  funds
through  public or  private  share  offerings  or  arrangements  with  corporate
partners. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in our efforts to
raise  these  required  funds,  or on terms  satisfactory  to us. The  continued
exploration of our oil and gas  properties  and the  development of our business
will depend upon our ability to establish  the  commercial  viability of our oil
and gas properties and to ultimately develop cash flow from operations and reach
profitable operations.  We currently are in the exploration stage and we have no
revenue from operations and we are experiencing  significant negative cash flow.
Accordingly,  the only other  sources  of funds  presently  available  to us are
through the sale of equity. We presently believe that debt financing will not be
an  alternative to us as all of our  properties  are in the  exploration  stage.
Alternatively,  we may finance  our  business by offering an interest in our oil
and gas properties to be earned by another party or parties carrying out further
exploration and development  thereof or to obtain project or operating financing
from financial  institutions,  neither of which is presently intended. If we are
unable to obtain this additional financing,  we will not be able to continue our
exploration activities and our assessment of the commercial viability of our oil
and properties. Further, if we are able to establish that development of our oil
and gas properties is  commercially  viable,  our inability to raise  additional
financing at this stage would  result in our  inability to place our oil and gas
properties into production and recover our investment.

As our oil and gas  properties do not contain any reserves,  we may not discover
commercially  exploitable  quantities of oil or gas on our properties that would
enable us to enter into commercial production,  achieve revenues and recover the
money we spend on exploration.

Our  properties  do not contain  reserves  in  accordance  with the  definitions
adopted by the SEC and there is no assurance that any exploration  programs that
we carry out will establish  reserves.  All of our oil and gas properties are in
the exploration stage as opposed to the development stage and have no known body


                                       12



of reserves.  The known reserves at these projects have not yet been  determined
to be economic,  and may never be determined to be economic.  We plan to conduct
further  exploration  activities  on our oil and gas  properties,  which  future
exploration  may include the  completion  of  feasibility  studies  necessary to
evaluate  whether  commercial  reserves exist on any of our mineral  properties.
There is a substantial risk that these exploration activities will not result in
discoveries   of   commercially   recoverable   reserves  of  oil  or  gas.  Any
determination that our properties contain commercially recoverable quantities of
oil or  gas  may  not be  reached  until  such  time  that  final  comprehensive
feasibility  studies have been concluded that establish that a potential reserve
is likely to be economic.  There is a substantial  risk that any  preliminary or
final  feasibility  studies  carried  out by us will not  result  in a  positive
determination that our oil and gas properties can be commercially developed.

OUR EXPLORATION ACTIVITIES ON OUR OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES MAY NOT BE COMMERCIALLY
SUCCESSFUL, WHICH COULD LEAD US TO ABANDON OUR PLANS TO DEVELOP THE PROPERTY AND
OUR INVESTMENTS IN EXPLORATION.

Our  long-term  success  depends  on  our  ability  to  establish   commercially
recoverable quantities of oil and natural gas on our properties that can then be
developed into commercially viable operations. Oil and gas exploration is highly
speculative  in nature,  involves many risks and is  frequently  non-productive.
These risks include unusual or unexpected geologic formations, and the inability
to obtain suitable or adequate machinery, equipment or labor. The success of oil
and gas exploration is determined in part by the following factors:

     o    identification  of  potential  oil and natural gas  reserves  based on
          superficial analysis;

     o    availability of government-granted exploration permits;

     o    the quality of management and geological and technical expertise; and

     o    the capital available for exploration.

Substantial  expenditures are required to establish proven and probable reserves
through drilling and analysis,  to develop processes to extract oil and gas, and
to develop the drilling and  processing  facilities  and  infrastructure  at any
chosen site. Whether an oil and gas reserve will be commercially  viable depends
on a number of  factors,  which  include,  without  limitation,  the  particular
attributes of the reserve;  oil and natural gas prices,  which fluctuate widely;
and government regulations,  including, without limitation, regulations relating
to prices, taxes,  royalties,  land tenure, land use, importing and exporting of
oil and gas and environmental  protection. We may invest significant capital and
resources  in  exploration  activities  and abandon such  investments  if we are
unable to identify commercially  exploitable reserves. The decision to abandon a
project may reduce the trading  price of our common stock and impair our ability
to raise future financing.  We cannot provide any assurance to investors that we
will discover or acquire any oil or gas reserves in sufficient quantities on any
of our properties to justify commercial operations. Further, we will not be able
to  recover  the  funds  that we  spend  on  exploration  if we are not  able to
establish  commercially  recoverable  reserves  of  oil  or  natural  gas on our
properties.


                                       13



OUR  BUSINESS  IS  DIFFICULT  TO  EVALUATE  BECAUSE WE HAVE A LIMITED  OPERATING
HISTORY.

In considering  whether to invest in our common stock,  you should consider that
there is only limited historical financial and operating  information  available
on which to base your evaluation of our  performance.  Our inception was October
19, 2004 and, as a result, we have a limited operating history.

WE HAVE A HISTORY OF  OPERATING  LOSSES AND THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE WE WILL BE
PROFITABLE IN THE FUTURE.

We have a history of operating losses,  expect to continue to incur losses,  and
may never be  profitable,  and we must be  considered  to be in the  exploration
stage.  Further,  we have been  dependent on sales of our equity  securities and
debt financing to meet our cash  requirements.  We have incurred losses totaling
approximately  $6,984,708 from October 19, 2004 (inception) to December 31, 2008
and had incurred  losses of  approximately  $2,021,930  during fiscal year ended
December 31, 2008.  Further, we do not expect positive cash flow from operations
in the near term. There is no assurance that actual cash  requirements  will not
exceed our estimates.  In particular,  additional capital may be required in the
event  that:  (i) the  costs to  acquire  additional  leases  are  more  than we
currently  anticipate;  (ii) drilling and completion  costs for additional wells
increase beyond our expectations; or (iii) we encounter greater costs associated
with general and administrative expenses or offering costs.

Our  development  of and  participation  in what could evolve into an increasing
number of oil and gas prospects may require  substantial  capital  expenditures.
The  uncertainty  and factors  described  throughout this section may impede our
ability to economically find, develop,  produce, and acquire natural gas and oil
reserves. As a result, we may not be able to achieve or sustain profitability or
positive cash flows from operating activities in the future.

WE HAVE RECEIVED A GOING CONCERN OPINION FROM OUR INDEPENDENT  AUDITORS'  REPORT
ACCOMPANYING OUR DECEMBER 31, 2008 AND DECEMBER 31, 2007 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.

The independent  auditor's  report  accompanying  our December 31, 2008 and 2007
audited  financial  statements  contains  an  explanatory  paragraph  expressing
substantial  doubt  about  our  ability  to  continue  as a going  concern.  The
financial statements have been prepared "assuming that the Company will continue
as a going  concern." Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on
raising  additional  capital to fund our operations and ultimately on generating
future profitable operations.  There can be no assurance that we will be able to
raise sufficient  additional  capital or eventually have positive cash flow from
operations  to address  all of our cash flow  needs.  If we are not able to find
alternative sources of cash or generate positive cash flow from operations,  our
business and shareholders will be materially and adversely affected.

WE WILL REQUIRE ADDITIONAL FUNDING IN THE FUTURE.

Based upon our historical  losses from  operations,  we will require  additional
funding  in the  future.  If we cannot  obtain  capital  through  financings  or
otherwise,  our ability to execute our development plans and achieve  production
levels will be greatly limited. Our current development plans require us to make


                                       14



capital  expenditures for the exploration and development of our oil and natural
gas properties. Historically, we have funded our operations through the issuance
of equity. We may not be able to obtain additional financing on favorable terms,
if at all.  Our future  cash flows and the  availability  of  financing  will be
subject to a number of variables,  including potential production and the market
prices of oil and natural gas. Further, debt financing, if utilized,  could lead
to a diversion  of cash flow to satisfy  debt-servicing  obligations  and create
restrictions on business operations. If we are unable to raise additional funds,
it would have a material adverse effect upon our operations.

AS PART OF OUR  GROWTH  STRATEGY,  WE INTEND TO ACQUIRE  ADDITIONAL  OIL AND GAS
PROPERTIES.

As part of our  growth  strategy,  we intend to acquire  additional  oil and gas
production properties.  Current and subsequent acquisitions may pose substantial
risks to our  business,  financial  condition,  and  results of  operations.  In
pursuing acquisitions,  we will compete with other companies, many of which have
greater financial and other resources to acquire attractive properties.  Even if
we are successful in acquiring additional properties, some of the properties may
not produce  revenues at  anticipated  levels or failure to conduct  drilling on
prospects within specified time periods may cause the forfeiture of the lease in
that prospect.  There can be no assurance  that we will be able to  successfully
integrate  acquired  properties,  which could  result in  substantial  costs and
delays  or  other  operational,   technical,  or  financial  problems.  Further,
acquisitions could disrupt ongoing business  operations.  If any of these events
occur,  it would have a material  adverse effect upon our operations and results
from operations.

WE ARE A NEW ENTRANT INTO THE OIL AND GAS EXPLORATION  AND DEVELOPMENT  INDUSTRY
WITHOUT PROFITABLE OPERATING HISTORY.

Since  inception,  our activities have been limited to  organizational  efforts,
obtaining  working capital and acquiring and developing a very limited number of
properties. As a result, there is limited information regarding property related
production potential or revenue generation  potential.  Further, our Leases have
no probable,  proved or developed  producing  reserves.  As a result, our future
revenues may be limited or non-existent.

The business of oil and gas exploration and development is subject to many risks
and if oil and  natural  gas is found in  economic  production  quantities,  the
potential  profitability  of future  possible oil and gas ventures  depends upon
factors beyond our control.  The potential  profitability of oil and natural gas
properties if economic  quantities  are found is dependent upon many factors and
risks  beyond our  control,  including,  but not limited  to: (i)  unanticipated
ground conditions; (ii) geological problems; (iii) drilling and other processing
problems;  (iv) the  occurrence of unusual  weather or operating  conditions and
other force majeure events;  (v) lower than expected  reserve  quantities;  (vi)
accidents;  (vii)  delays in the  receipt of or  failure  to  receive  necessary
government permits;  (viii) delays in transportation;  (ix) labor disputes;  (x)
government permit restrictions and regulation restrictions;  (xi) unavailability
of materials  and  equipment;  and (xii) the failure of equipment or drilling to
operate in accordance with specifications or expectations.


                                       15



OUR DRILLING OPERATIONS MAY NOT BE SUCCESSFUL.

We intend to test certain zones in wellbores  already  drilled on certain of the
properties  and  if  results  are  positive  and  capital  is  available,  drill
additional  wells and begin  production  operations from existing and new wells.
There can be no assurance  that our current  well  re-completion  activities  or
future drilling  activities  will be successful,  and we cannot be sure that our
overall drilling success rate or our production  operations  within a particular
area will ever come to fruition,  and if it does, will not decline over time. We
may not recover all or any portion of our capital investment in the wells or the
underlying  leaseholds.  Unsuccessful  drilling activities would have a material
adverse effect upon our results of operations and financial condition.  The cost
of drilling, completing, and operating wells is often uncertain, and a number of
factors  can delay or prevent  drilling  operations  including:  (i)  unexpected
drilling conditions;  (ii) pressure or irregularities in geological  formations;
(iii) equipment failures or accidents; (iv) adverse weather conditions; and (iv)
shortages or delays in availability of drilling rigs and delivery of equipment.

OUR PRODUCTION INITIATIVES MAY NOT PROVE SUCCESSFUL.

The coal beds from which we intend to produce  natural  gas  frequently  contain
water, which may hamper our ability to produce gas in commercial quantities. The
amount of natural gas that can be  commercially  produced  depends upon the coal
quality,  the original gas content of the coal seam,  the thickness of the seam,
the reservoir pressure, the rate at which gas is released from the coal, and the
existence of any natural  fractures  through  which the gas can flow to the well
bore. However,  coal beds frequently contain water that must be removed in order
for the gas to detach from the coal and flow to the well bore.  The average life
of a coal bed well is only five to six years.  Our ability to remove and dispose
of sufficient  quantities of water from the coal seam will determine  whether or
not we can produce coal bed methane in commercial quantities.

There is no guarantee that the potential  drilling  locations we have or acquire
in the future will ever produce  natural gas or oil, which could have a material
adverse effect upon our results of operations.

PROSPECTS  THAT  WE  DECIDE  TO  DRILL  MAY  NOT  YIELD  NATURAL  GAS  OR OIL IN
COMMERCIALLY VIABLE QUANTITIES.

We describe some of our current  prospects in this Annual Report.  Our prospects
are in various stages of  preliminary  evaluation and assessment and we have not
reached the point where we will decide to drill at all on the subject prospects.
However,  the use of seismic data,  historical  drilling logs,  offsetting  well
information,  and other  technologies  and the study of producing  fields in the
same area will not enable us to know conclusively  prior to drilling and testing
whether  natural gas or oil will be present or, if present,  whether natural gas
or oil will be present in sufficient  quantities or quality to recover  drilling
or completion costs or to be economically  viable. In sum, the cost of drilling,
completing  and operating any wells is often  uncertain and new wells may not be
productive.


                                       16



WE MAY BE UNABLE TO  IDENTIFY  LIABILITIES  ASSOCIATED  WITH THE  PROPERTIES  OR
OBTAIN PROTECTION FROM SELLERS AGAINST THEM.

One of our growth  strategies is to capitalize on opportunistic  acquisitions of
oil and natural gas reserves.  However,  our reviews of acquired  properties are
inherently  incomplete  because it  generally is not feasible to review in depth
every individual  property  involved in each  acquisition.  A detailed review of
records  and  properties  may  not  necessarily  reveal  existing  or  potential
problems,  nor will it permit a buyer to become  sufficiently  familiar with the
properties  to  assess  fully  their   deficiencies   and  potential.   Further,
environmental problems, such as ground water contamination,  are not necessarily
observable  even when an inspection is undertaken.  We may not be able to obtain
indemnification  or other  protections  from the sellers  against such potential
liabilities,  which  would have a material  adverse  effect  upon our results of
operations.

THE  POTENTIAL  PROFITABILITY  OF OIL  AND  GAS  VENTURES  DEPENDS  UPON  GLOBAL
POLITICAL AND MARKET RELATED FACTORS BEYOND OUR CONTROL.

World  prices and markets for oil and gas are  unpredictable,  highly  volatile,
potentially  subject  to  governmental  fixing,   pegging,   controls,   or  any
combination  of these and other  factors,  and  respond to changes in  domestic,
international,  political, social, and economic environments.  Additionally, due
to  worldwide  economic  uncertainty,  the  availability  and cost of funds  for
production  and  other  expenses  have  become  increasingly  difficult,  if not
impossible, to project. These and other changes and events may materially affect
our financial performance. The potential profitability of oil and gas properties
is dependent on these and other factors beyond our control.

PRODUCTION  OR OIL  AND  GAS  RESOURCES  IF  FOUND  ARE  DEPENDENT  ON  NUMEROUS
OPERATIONAL  UNCERTAINTIES SPECIFIC TO THE AREA OF THE RESOURCE THAT AFFECTS ITS
PROFITABILITY.

Production area specifics affect  profitability.  Adverse weather conditions can
hinder drilling  operations and ongoing  production  work. A productive well may
become  uneconomic  in the  event  water or  other  deleterious  substances  are
encountered  which impair or prevent the  production  of oil and/or gas from the
well.  Production  and  treatments  on other wells in the area can have either a
positive or negative effect on our production and wells. In addition, production
from any well  may be  unmarketable  if it is  impregnated  with  water or other
deleterious  substances.  The content of  hydrocarbons is subject to change over
the life of producing wells. The  marketability of oil and gas from any specific
reserve which may be acquired or discovered will be affected by numerous factors
beyond our control. These factors include, but are not limited to, the proximity
and capacity of oil and gas pipelines,  availability of room in the pipelines to
accommodate additional production, processing and production equipment operating
costs and equipment  efficiency,  market  fluctuations of prices and oil and gas
marketing  relationships,  local  and  state  taxes,  mineral  owner  and  other
royalties,  land  tenure,  lease bonus costs and lease damage  costs,  allowable
production,  and  environmental  protection.  These factors cannot be accurately
predicted and the combination of these factors may result in us not receiving an
adequate return on our invested capital.


                                       17



IF PRODUCTION RESULTS FROM OPERATIONS,  WE ARE DEPENDENT UPON TRANSPORTATION AND
STORAGE SERVICES PROVIDED BY THIRD PARTIES.

We will be  dependent  on the  transportation  and storage  services  offered by
various  interstate and intrastate  pipeline companies for the delivery and sale
of our gas supplies. Both the performance of transportation and storage services
by  interstate  pipelines and the rates charged for such services are subject to
the jurisdiction of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission or state regulatory
agencies.  An  inability to obtain  transportation  and/or  storage  services at
competitive  rates could hinder our processing and marketing  operations  and/or
affect our sales margins.

OUR RESULTS OF  OPERATIONS  ARE  DEPENDENT  UPON MARKET  PRICES FOR OIL AND GAS,
WHICH FLUCTUATE WIDELY AND ARE BEYOND OUR CONTROL.

If and when  production  from oil and gas  properties  is reached,  our revenue,
profitability,  and cash flow  depend  upon the  prices  and  demand for oil and
natural  gas.  The  markets for these  commodities  are very  volatile  and even
relatively modest drops in prices can significantly affect our financial results
and impede our  growth.  Prices  received  also will affect the amount of future
cash flow available for capital expenditures and may affect our ability to raise
additional  capital.  Lower prices may also affect the amount of natural gas and
oil that  can be  economically  produced  from  reserves  either  discovered  or
acquired.  Factors that can cause price fluctuations  include:  (i) the level of
consumer  product demand;  (ii) domestic and foreign  governmental  regulations;
(iii) the price and availability of alternative  fuels; (iv) technical  advances
affecting  energy  consumption;  (v)  proximity  and  capacity  of oil  and  gas
pipelines and other  transportation  facilities;  (vi)  political  conditions in
natural gas and oil producing regions;  (vii) the domestic and foreign supply of
natural gas and oil;  (viii) the ability of members of Organization of Petroleum
Exporting Countries to agree to and maintain oil price and production  controls;
(ix) the price of foreign imports;  and (x) overall domestic and global economic
conditions.

The  availability  of a ready market for our oil and gas depends  upon  numerous
factors  beyond our control,  including  the extent of domestic  production  and
importation   of  oil  and  gas,  the  relative   status  of  the  domestic  and
international  economies,  the  proximity  of our  properties  to gas  gathering
systems,  the capacity of those  systems,  the  marketing  of other  competitive
fuels,   fluctuations  in  seasonal  demand  and   governmental   regulation  of
production,  refining,  transportation and pricing of oil, natural gas and other
fuels.

THE OIL AND GAS  INDUSTRY IN WHICH WE OPERATE  INVOLVES  MANY  INDUSTRY  RELATED
OPERATING AND IMPLEMENTATION  RISKS THAT CAN CAUSE SUBSTANTIAL LOSSES INCLUDING,
BUT  NOT  LIMITED  TO,  UNPRODUCTIVE  WELLS,  NATURAL  DISASTERS,  FACILITY  AND
EQUIPMENT PROBLEMS AND ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS.

Our drilling  activities  are subject to many risks,  including the risk that we
will not  discover  commercially  productive  reservoirs.  Drilling  for oil and
natural gas can be  unprofitable,  not only from dry holes,  but from productive
wells that do not produce  sufficient  revenues to return a profit. In addition,
our drilling and producing operations may be curtailed, delayed or canceled as a
result of other drilling and production, weather and natural disaster, equipment
and service  failure,  environmental  and regulatory,  and site specific related
factors,  including  but not  limited  to: (i)  fires;  (ii)  explosions;  (iii)
blow-outs  and  surface  cratering;  (iv)  uncontrollable  flows of  underground
natural gas, oil, or formation water; (v) natural  disasters;  (vi) facility and
equipment failures; (vii) title problems; (viii) shortages or delivery delays of


                                       18



equipment and services; (ix) abnormal pressure formations; and (x) environmental
hazards such as natural gas leaks, oil spills,  pipeline ruptures and discharges
of toxic gases.

If any of these events occur, we could incur substantial  losses as a result of:
(i) injury or loss of life;  (ii) severe damage to and  destruction of property,
natural resources or equipment;  (iii) pollution and other environmental damage;
(iv) clean-up responsibilities; (v) regulatory investigation and penalties; (vi)
suspension of our operations; or (vii) repairs necessary to resume operations.

If we were to  experience  any of these  problems,  it could  affect well bores,
gathering  systems and processing  facilities,  any one of which could adversely
affect our  ability to conduct  operations.  We may be  affected by any of these
events more than larger companies, since we have limited working capital.

THE OIL AND GAS INDUSTRY IS HIGHLY COMPETITIVE AND THERE IS NO ASSURANCE THAT WE
WILL BE SUCCESSFUL IN ACQUIRING LEASES.

The oil and natural gas industry is intensely  competitive,  and we compete with
other  companies that have greater  resources.  Many of these companies not only
explore  for and  produce  oil and  natural  gas,  but also  carry  on  refining
operations and market  petroleum and other  products on a regional,  national or
worldwide basis.  These companies may be able to pay more for productive oil and
natural gas properties and exploratory  prospects or define,  evaluate,  bid for
and purchase a greater  number of properties and prospects than our financial or
human resources permit. In addition,  these companies may have a greater ability
to continue  exploration  activities  during  periods of low oil and natural gas
market  prices.  Our  larger  competitors  may be able to absorb  the  burden of
present and future federal,  state,  local and other laws and  regulations  more
easily than we can, which would adversely affect our competitive  position.  Our
ability to acquire additional  properties and to discover reserves in the future
will be dependent  upon our ability to evaluate and select  suitable  properties
and to consummate transactions in a highly competitive environment. In addition,
because we have fewer  financial and human  resources than many companies in our
industry,  we may be at a disadvantage in bidding for exploratory  prospects and
producing oil and natural gas properties.

THE  MARKETABILITY  OF NATURAL  RESOURCES  WILL BE AFFECTED BY NUMEROUS  FACTORS
BEYOND OUR CONTROL,  WHICH MAY RESULT IN US NOT RECEIVING AN ADEQUATE  RETURN ON
INVESTED CAPITAL TO BE PROFITABLE OR VIABLE.

The marketability of natural resources which may be acquired or discovered by us
will be affected by numerous  factors beyond our control.  These factors include
market  fluctuations  in oil and gas  pricing  and  demand,  the  proximity  and
capacity of natural  resource  markets and  processing  equipment,  governmental
regulations,  land tenure,  land use,  regulation  concerning  the importing and
exporting of oil and gas and  environmental  protection  regulations.  The exact
effect of these factors cannot be accurately  predicted,  but the combination of
these  factors may result in us not  receiving  an  adequate  return on invested
capital to be profitable or viable.


                                       19



OIL AND GAS OPERATIONS ARE SUBJECT TO  COMPREHENSIVE  REGULATION WHICH MAY CAUSE
SUBSTANTIAL  DELAYS OR REQUIRE  CAPITAL  OUTLAYS IN EXCESS OF THOSE  ANTICIPATED
CAUSING AN ADVERSE EFFECT ON OUR BUSINESS OPERATIONS.

Oil and gas operations are subject to federal, state, and local laws relating to
the protection of the environment,  including laws regulating removal of natural
resources from the ground and the discharge of materials  into the  environment.
Oil and gas  operations are also subject to federal,  state,  and local laws and
regulations which seek to maintain health and safety standards by regulating the
design  and  use  of  drilling  methods  and  equipment.  Various  permits  from
government  bodies are required  for drilling  operations  to be  conducted;  no
assurance  can be  given  that  such  permits  will be  received.  Environmental
standards  imposed by federal,  provincial,  or local authorities may be changed
and any such  changes  may have  material  adverse  effects  on our  activities.
Moreover,  compliance  with such laws may cause  substantial  delays or  require
capital outlays in excess of those  anticipated,  thus causing an adverse effect
on us.  Additionally,  we may be subject to  liability  for  pollution  or other
environmental  damages  which  we  may  elect  not  to  insure  against  due  to
prohibitive  premium costs and other reasons.  To date we have not been required
to spend material amounts on compliance with environmental regulations. However,
we may be  required  to do so in the future  and this may affect our  ability to
expand or maintain our operations.

In general,  our  exploration  and production  activities are subject to certain
federal,  state and local laws and regulations relating to environmental quality
and pollution  control.  Such laws and  regulations  increase the costs of these
activities and may prevent or delay the  commencement  or continuance of a given
operation.  Compliance  with these laws and  regulations  has not had a material
effect on our operations or financial  condition to date.  Specifically,  we are
subject  to  legislation   regarding  emissions  into  the  environment,   water
discharges  and  storage and  disposition  of  hazardous  wastes.  In  addition,
legislation  has been  enacted  which  requires  well and  facility  sites to be
abandoned and reclaimed to the satisfaction of state authorities.  However, such
laws and  regulations  are  frequently  changed and we are unable to predict the
ultimate cost of compliance. Generally, environmental requirements do not appear
to affect us any  differently  or to any  greater  or lesser  extent  than other
companies in the industry.

We believe  that our  operations  comply,  in all  material  respects,  with all
applicable  environmental  regulations.  We need  insurance  to protect our self
against risks  associated with the leases  obtained.  The leases allow for entry
onto the properties for the purposes of oil and gas  exploration.  The insurance
we require  relates solely to developments on the properties for the purposes of
oil and gas exploration.

When and if we are  convinced  that our  current  leases  or those  subsequently
acquired are capable of hydrocarbon  production and sales,  and we plan to drill
more than one well, we intend to maintain a $2,000,000  per year limit policy on
bodily  injury and  general  liability  with  regard to risks  incurred  for the
drilling  of up to 25 wells.  This  will  allow for our  growth to  contain  non
contract  labor that would  require us to carry such  additional  insurance  for
risks  pertaining to oil and gas  exploration  conducted  directly by us. Such a
policy  would   include   coverage  for  numerous   locations   for   pollution,
environmental  damage,  chemical spills and commercial general liability,  fire,
and personal injury. Such a policy will not be required until such time and date
as we believe that we will begin a sustained drilling and operating program, and
that at least one well has been  drilled and is producing to justify and warrant
further drilling and a sustained drilling and operating program.


                                       20



ANY CHANGE TO GOVERNMENT REGULATION/ADMINISTRATIVE PRACTICES MAY HAVE A NEGATIVE
IMPACT ON OUR ABILITY TO OPERATE AND OUR PROFITABILITY.

The laws,  regulations,  policies  or current  administrative  practices  of any
government body,  organization or regulatory  agency in the United States or any
other  jurisdiction,  may be changed,  applied or  interpreted in a manner which
will fundamentally alter our ability to carry on business. The actions, policies
or regulations, or changes thereto, of any government body or regulatory agency,
or other special  interest groups,  may have a detrimental  effect on us. Any or
all of these  situations  may have a negative  impact on our  ability to operate
and/or our profitability.

WE MAY BE UNABLE TO RETAIN KEY EMPLOYEES OR  CONSULTANTS  OR RECRUIT  ADDITIONAL
QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.

Our  extremely  limited  personnel  means  that we  would be  required  to spend
significant  sums of money to locate and train new employees in the event any of
our employees resign or terminate their  employment with us for any reason.  Due
to our  limited  operating  history and  financial  resources,  we are  entirely
dependent on the continued service of Peter Wilson, our Chief Executive Officer,
and William Thomas, our Chief Financial Officer. Further, we do not have key man
life  insurance on either of these  individuals.  We may not have the  financial
resources to hire a replacement  if one or both of our officers were to die. The
loss of service of either of these employees could therefore  significantly  and
adversely affect our operations.

OUR OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS MAY BE SUBJECT TO CONFLICTS OF INTEREST.

Our officers and directors  serve only part time and are subject to conflicts of
interest.  Each devotes part of his working  time to other  business  endeavors,
including consulting relationships with other entities, and has responsibilities
to these other entities. Such conflicts include deciding how much time to devote
to our affairs,  as well as what business  opportunities  should be presented to
us. Because of these  relationships,  our officers and directors will be subject
to conflicts of interest.  Currently, we have no policy in place to address such
conflicts of interest.

NEVADA LAW AND OUR  ARTICLES OF  INCORPORATION  MAY PROTECT OUR  DIRECTORS  FROM
CERTAIN TYPES OF LAWSUITS.

Nevada law provides that our officers and directors  will not be liable to us or
our  stockholders  for monetary  damages for all but certain types of conduct as
officers and directors. Our Bylaws permit us broad indemnification powers to all
persons  against all damages  incurred in  connection  with our  business to the
fullest extent provided or allowed by law. The  exculpation  provisions may have
the effect of  preventing  stockholders  from  recovering  damages  against  our
officers  and  directors  caused by their  negligence,  poor  judgment  or other
circumstances.  The indemnification provisions may require us to use our limited
assets to defend our officers and directors  against  claims,  including  claims
arising out of their negligence, poor judgment, or other circumstances.


                                       21



RISKS RELATED TO OUR COMMON STOCK

SALES OF A  SUBSTANTIAL  NUMBER OF SHARES OF OUR  COMMON  STOCK  INTO THE PUBLIC
MARKET BY CERTAIN  STOCKHOLDERS MAY RESULT IN SIGNIFICANT  DOWNWARD  PRESSURE ON
THE PRICE OF OUR COMMON  STOCK AND COULD  AFFECT  YOUR  ABILITY  TO REALIZE  THE
CURRENT TRADING PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK.

Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market
by certain  stockholders  could  cause a  reduction  in the market  price of our
common stock. As of the date of this Annual Report, we have 15,216,196 shares of
common stock issued and  outstanding  (Post-Reverse  Stock Split).  Of the total
number of issued and outstanding  shares of common stock,  certain  stockholders
are able to resell up to  1,389,233  (Post-Reverse  Stock  Split)  shares of our
common  stock  pursuant to the  Registration  Statement  declared  effective  on
February  14,  2006.  As a  result  of  the  Registration  Statement,  1,389,233
Post-Reverse  Stock  Split  shares  of our  common  stock  were  issued  and are
available for immediate  resale which could have an adverse  effect on the price
of our common stock.

As of the date of this Annual Report, there are 6,969,255  outstanding shares of
our common stock that are restricted  securities as that term is defined in Rule
144 under  the  Securities  Act of 1933,  as  amended  (the  "Securities  Act").
Although the Securities Act and Rule 144 place certain  prohibitions on the sale
of  restricted  securities,  restricted  securities  may be sold into the public
market under certain conditions.  Further, as of the date of this Annual Report,
there are an aggregate of 1,866,668  Stock Options  outstanding and an aggregate
of 1,224,000 Warrants  outstanding.  See "Item 5. Market for Registrant's Common
Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities."

Any  significant  downward  pressure  on the  price of our  common  stock as the
selling stockholders sell their shares of our common stock could encourage short
sales by the selling  stockholders  or others.  Any such short sales could place
further downward pressure on the price of our common stock.

THE TRADING PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK ON THE OTC BULLETIN  BOARD WILL  FLUCTUATE
SIGNIFICANTLY AND STOCKHOLDERS MAY HAVE DIFFICULTY RESELLING THEIR SHARES.

As of  the  date  of  this  Annual  Report,  our  common  stock  trades  on  the
Over-the-Counter  Bulletin Board. There is a volatility associated with Bulletin
Board  securities in general and the value of your investment  could decline due
to the  impact of any of the  following  factors  upon the  market  price of our
common  stock:  (i)  disappointing  results from our  discovery  or  development
efforts;  (ii) failure to meet our revenue or profit goals or operating  budget;
(iii)  decline  in demand for our  common  stock;  (iv)  downward  revisions  in
securities  analysts'  estimates or changes in general  market  conditions;  (v)
technological innovations by competitors or in competing technologies; (vi) lack
of funding generated for operations;  (vii) investor  perception of our industry
or our prospects; and (viii) general economic trends.

In addition,  stock markets have experienced  price and volume  fluctuations and
the market prices of securities have been highly  volatile.  These  fluctuations
are often unrelated to operating performance and may adversely affect the market


                                       22



price of our common  stock.  As a result,  investors may be unable to sell their
shares at a fair price and you may lose all or part of your investment.

ADDITIONAL  ISSUANCE OF EQUITY SECURITIES MAY RESULT IN DILUTION TO OUR EXISTING
STOCKHOLDERS.

Our Articles of  Incorporation  authorize the issuance of  33,333,333  shares of
common stock, which authorized capital was reduced  simultaneously in accordance
with the Reverse  Stock  Split.  Common  stock is our only  authorized  class of
stock.  The board of directors has the authority to issue  additional  shares of
our capital stock to provide additional financing in the future and the issuance
of any such shares may result in a reduction  of the book value or market  price
of  the  outstanding  shares  of our  common  stock.  If we do  issue  any  such
additional   shares,   such   issuance  also  will  cause  a  reduction  in  the
proportionate ownership and voting power of all other stockholders.  As a result
of such dilution, your proportionate ownership interest and voting power will be
decreased  accordingly.  Further,  any such issuance could result in a change of
control.

OUR COMMON STOCK IS  CLASSIFIED  AS A "PENNY STOCK" UNDER SEC RULES WHICH LIMITS
THE MARKET FOR OUR COMMON STOCK.

The SEC has adopted  rules that regulate  broker-dealer  practices in connection
with   transactions  in  "penny  stocks."  Penny  stocks  generally  are  equity
securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities  registered on
certain national securities  exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system,  provided
that current price and volume  information  with respect to transactions in such
securities  is provided by the exchange or system).  Penny stock rules require a
broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from
those rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure  document prepared by the
SEC,  which  specifies  information  about  penny  stocks  and  the  nature  and
significance  of risks of the penny  stock  market.  A  broker-dealer  must also
provide the customer  with bid and offer  quotations  for the penny  stock,  the
compensation  of the  broker-dealer,  and sales person in the  transaction,  and
monthly account statements  indicating the market value of each penny stock held
in the  customer's  account.  In addition,  the penny stock rules  require that,
prior to a transaction  in a penny stock not otherwise  exempt from those 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 trading  activity in the secondary market for stock that becomes
subject to those penny stock  rules.  If a trading  market for our common  stock
develops,  our common  stock will  probably  become  subject to the penny  stock
rules, and shareholders may have difficulty in selling their shares.

A MAJORITY OF OUR  DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS ARE OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES WITH THE
RESULT  THAT IT MAY BE  DIFFICULT  FOR  INVESTORS  TO ENFORCE  WITHIN THE UNITED
STATES ANY JUDGMENTS OBTAINED AGAINST US OR ANY OF OUR DIRECTORS OR OFFICERS.

A majority of our  directors  and officers  are  nationals  and/or  residents of
countries other than the United States, and all or a substantial portion of such
persons'  assets are located outside the United States.  As a result,  it may be
difficult  for  investors  to effect  service  of process  on our  directors  or
officers,  or enforce within the United States or Canada any judgments  obtained


                                       23



against us 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.  Consequently,  you may be  effectively  prevented from pursuing
remedies under U.S. federal securities laws against them. In addition, investors
may not be able to commence an action in a Canadian  court  predicated  upon the
civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States.

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

As of the date of this Annual Report,  there are no unresolved  comments pending
from the Securities and Exchange Commission.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

We lease our principal  office space  located at 5050 Quorum  Drive,  Suite 700,
Dallas,  Texas 75254.  The office costs us  approximately  $3,140  monthly.  The
office and services related thereto are on an annual basis with the office lease
coming due in June 2009.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Management  is  not  aware  of  any  legal   proceedings   contemplated  by  any
governmental authority or any other party involving us or our properties.  As of
the date of this Annual Report, no director, officer or affiliate is (i) a party
adverse to us in any legal proceeding,  or (ii) has an adverse interest to us in
any legal  proceedings.  Management is not aware of any other legal  proceedings
pending or that have been threatened against us or our properties.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

During  fiscal year ended  December 31, 2008,  no matters were  submitted to our
stockholders for approval.

DIVIDEND POLICY

No  dividends  have ever been  declared by the Board of  Directors on our common
stock.  Our  losses  do not  currently  indicate  the  ability  to pay any  cash
dividends,  and we do not indicate the intention of paying cash dividends either
on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

SECURITIES AUTHORIZED FOR ISSUANCE UNDER COMPENSATION PLANS

2006 STOCK OPTION PLAN

On April 3, 2006, our Board of Directors authorized and approved the adoption of
the 2006 Plan effective April 3, 2006,  under which an aggregate of 5,000,000 of
our shares may be issued.  On April 22,  2008,  we effected  the  Reverse  Stock
Split, which decreased the number of shares issuable under the Stock Option Plan
from  5,000,000  shares to 1,666,666  shares.  On April 28,  2008,  our Board of
Directors  approved an amendment to the Stock Option Plan to increase the number
of shares  issuable  under the Stock  Option Plan to an  aggregate  of 5,000,000
shares.

The purpose of the 2006 Plan is to enhance our  long-term  stockholder  value by
offering  opportunities  to our  directors,  officers,  employees  and  eligible
consultants  to acquire  and  maintain  stock  ownership  in order to give these
persons  the  opportunity  to  participate  in our  growth and  success,  and to
encourage them to remain in our service.

The 2006 Plan is to be  administered  by our Board of  Directors  or a committee
appointed by and  consisting  of one or more members of the Board of  Directors,
which shall determine (i) the persons to be granted Stock Options under the 2006
Plan;  (ii) the number of shares  subject to each option,  the exercise price of
each Stock Option;  and (iii) whether the Stock Option shall be  exercisable  at
any time  during  the option  period up to ten (10)  years or whether  the Stock
Option shall be  exercisable in  installments  or by vesting only. The 2006 Plan
provides  authorization  to the Board of  Directors  to grant  Stock  Options to
purchase a total number of shares of Common Stock of the Company,  not to exceed
5,000,000  shares as at the date of  adoption by the Board of  Directors  of the
2006 Plan. At the time a Stock Option is granted under the 2006 Plan,  the Board
of Directors  shall fix and determine the exercise  price at which shares of our
common stock may be acquired.

In the event an optionee  ceases to be employed by or to provide  services to us
for reasons other than cause, retirement,  disability or death, any Stock Option
that is vested and held by such optionee  generally may be exercisable within up
to ninety (90) calendar days after the effective date that his position  ceases,
and after such 90-day period any unexercised  Stock Option shall expire.  In the
event an  optionee  ceases to be  employed  by or to provide  services to us for
reasons of retirement,  disability or death, any Stock Option that is vested and
held by such optionee  generally may be exercisable  within up to one-year after
the effective date that his position ceases,  and after such one-year period any
unexercised Stock Option shall expire.


                                       26



No Stock Options granted under the Stock Option Plan will be transferable by the
optionee,  and each Stock Option will be exercisable  during the lifetime of the
optionee  subject  to the  option  period  up to ten (10)  years or  limitations
described  above.  Any Stock Option held by an optionee at the time of his death
may be exercised  by his estate  within one (1) year of his death or such longer
period as the Board of Directors may determine.

The exercise price of a Stock Option granted  pursuant to the 2006 Plan shall be
paid in full to us by  delivery  of  consideration  equal to the  product of the
Stock Option in accordance with the requirements of the Nevada Revised Statutes.
Any Stock Option settlement, including payment deferrals or payments deemed made
by way of  settlement  of  pre-existing  indebtedness  may be  subject  to  such
conditions, restrictions and contingencies as may be determined.

GRANT OF STOCK OPTIONS DURING FISCAL YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008

On April 30,  2008,  we  authorized  the grant of an aggregate  1,250,000  stock
options to certain of our officers,  directors and  management.  The options are
exercisable  at $1.00  per  share  for a period  of ten  years.  See  "Item  11.
Executive  Compensation" and "Item 12. Security  Ownership of Certain Beneficial

REVERSE STOCK SPLIT

On April 1,  2008,  our  Board of  Directors  pursuant  to a Board of  Directors
meeting authorized and approved the Reverse Stock Split. The Reverse Stock Split
was effectuated based on market conditions and upon a determination by our Board
of Directors  that the Reverse Stock Split was in our best  interests and of the
shareholders.  Certain  factors were discussed among the members of the Board of
Directors  concerning  the need  for the  Reverse  Stock  Split,  including  the
increased  potential for financing.  The intent of the Reverse Stock Split is to
increase the  marketability  of our common  stock.  The Reverse  Stock Split was
effectuated  on April 22, 2008 upon filing the  appropriate  documentation  with
NASDAQ.  The Reverse  Stock Split  decreased  our total  issued and  outstanding
shares of common stock from  41,976,589 to  approximately  13,992,196  shares of

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATION

The  summarized  financial data set forth in the table below is derived from and
should be read in  conjunction  with our audited  financial  statements  for the
period from inception (October 19, 2004) to fiscal year ended December 31, 2008,
including  the notes to those  financial  statements  which are included in this
Annual Report.  The following  discussion should be read in conjunction with our
audited financial statements and the related notes that appear elsewhere in this
Annual Report. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that
reflect our plans,  estimates  and  beliefs.  Our actual  results  could  differ
materially from those discussed in the forward looking statements.  Factors that
could cause or contribute to such  differences  include,  but are not limited to
those discussed  below and elsewhere in this Annual Report,  particularly in the
section entitled "Risk Factors".  Our audited financial statements are stated in
United  States  Dollars  and are  prepared  in  accordance  with  United  States
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

We are an exploration  stage company and have not generated any revenue to date.
The above  table sets  forth  selected  financial  information  for the  periods
indicated.  We have incurred recurring losses to date. Our financial  statements
have been  prepared  assuming  that we will  continue  as a going  concern  and,
accordingly,  do not  include  adjustments  relating to the  recoverability  and
realization of assets and  classification of liabilities that might be necessary
should we be unable to continue in operation.

We expect we will  require  additional  capital to meet our long term  operating
requirements. We expect to raise additional capital through, among other things,
the sale of equity or debt securities.

RESULTS OF OPERATION

FISCAL YEAR ENDED  DECEMBER 31, 2008 COMPARED TO FISCAL YEAR ENDED  DECEMBER 31,
2007.

Our net loss for fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 was  ($2,021,930)  compared
to a net loss of  ($817,021)  during  fiscal  year ended  December  31, 2007 (an
increase of  $1,204,909).  During fiscal years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007,
we did not generate any revenue.

During  fiscal  year  ended   December  31,  2008,   we  incurred   general  and
administrative  expenses  of  approximately   $1,597,270  compared  to  $817,021
incurred  during fiscal year ended  December 31, 2007 (an increase of $780,249).
These  general and  administrative  expenses  incurred  during fiscal year ended
December  31, 2008  consisted  of: (i)  investor  relations  of $159,944  (2007:
$9,120);  (ii) consulting fees of $228,502 (2007:  $189,991);  (iii)  management
fees - related party of $263,386 (2007: $312,990);  (iv) management fees - stock
based compensation of $436,955 (2007:  $-0-); (v) office and general of $262,956
(2007: $156,639); and (vi) professional fees of $245,527 (2007: $148,281).


                                       31



During  fiscal  years ended  December  31, 2008 and 2007,  we did not record any
impairment of oil and gas properties.  Thus, general and administrative expenses
incurred  during  fiscal year ended  December  31, 2008  compared to fiscal year
ended December 31, 2007 increased  primarily due to the incurrence of management
fees - stock based  compensation  relating  to the  valuation  of stock  options
granted to our  officers  and  directors.  General and  administrative  expenses
increased  further due to the increase in investor  relations,  consulting fees,
office and general  expenses and  professional  fees  relating to the  increased
scope of business  operations.  General and  administrative  expenses  generally
include corporate overhead,  financial and administrative  contracted  services,
marketing, and consulting costs.

Of the $1,597,270 incurred as general and administrative  expenses during fiscal
year ended December 31, 2008, we incurred  consulting expenses of $30,000 (2007-
$120,000) payable to International  Market Trend, Inc. ("IMT"). In addition,  on
March 24, 2008, we settled an aggregate amount of $86,873 in consulting fees and
advances due and owing to IMT through the issuance of 434,366 shares Pre-Reverse
Stock Split (144,788  shares Post Reverse Stock Split) of our restricted  common
stock. An officer and director of IMT is also one of our shareholders. See "Item
5. Market for Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of
Equity Securities."

Of the $1,597,270 incurred as general and administrative  expenses during fiscal
year ended December 31, 2008, we incurred management fees of $263,386 payable to
our  officers  and   directors.   Moreover,   as  part  of  their   compensation
arrangements,  our Chief  Geologist and Operations  Manager each received and is
assigned up to a 1.5% overriding  royalty interest in any oil and gas properties
which are directly  introduced  by the  respective  officer to us. During fiscal
year ended December 31, 2008, we recorded related additional compensation to the
respective  officers of $4,486,  which  reflects the  estimated  cost of royalty
interests  earned during the fiscal year. In addition,  during fiscal year ended
December 31, 2008, we settled an aggregate  $71,250 for management  fees due and
owing to our former President,  Marcus Johnson,  through the issuance of 356,250
shares Pre Reverse Stock Split (118,750  shares Post Reverse Stock Split) of our
restricted  common  stock.  See  "Item 5.  Market  for  Common  Equity,  Related
Stockholder  Matters and Issuer  Purchases of Equity  Securities"  and "Item 11.
Executive Compensation."

Financing  costs incurred during fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 of $424,660
(2008:  $-0-)  were  recorded  as  other  expense  resulting  in a net  loss  of
($2,021,930).  Our net loss  during  fiscal  year ended  December  31,  2008 was
($2,021,930)  or  ($0.15)  per share  compared  to a net loss of  ($817,021)  or
($0.08) per share  during  fiscal year ended  December  31,  2007.  The weighted
average  number of shares  outstanding  was  13,833,323  for  fiscal  year ended
December 31, 2008 compared to 9,938,302 for fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

FISCAL YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008

As at fiscal year ended  December 31, 2008,  our current assets were $40,687 and
our current  liabilities  were  $635,121,  which  resulted in a working  capital
deficiency of  ($594,434).  As at fiscal year ended  December 31, 2008,  current
assets were comprised of: (i) $14,883 in cash; and (ii) $25,804 in other current
assets.  As at fiscal year ended  December 31, 2008,  current  liabilities  were
comprised of: (i) $303,959 in accounts payable and accrued liabilities; and (ii)
$331,162 in Notes Payable - related parties.

As at December 31,  2008,  our total assets were  $1,843,630  comprised  of: (i)
$40,687  in  current  assets;  and  (ii)  $1,802,943  in  unproven  oil  and gas
properties.  The  slight  increase  in total  assets  during  fiscal  year ended
December 31, 2008 from fiscal year ended  December 31, 2007 was primarily due to
the increase in valuation of the unproved oil and gas properties.

As at December 31, 2008, our total liabilities were $635,121  comprised entirely
of current  liabilities.  The decrease in  liabilities  during fiscal year ended
December 31, 2008 from fiscal year ended  December 31, 2007 was primarily due to
the  settlement  of: (i) an aggregate  $1,515,214 in related party  advances and
accrued interest in current  indebtedness  (the "Related Party Debt Settlement")
by the  issuance  of an  aggregate  7,576,068  shares Pre  Reverse  Stock  Split
(2,525,356  shares Post Reverse Stock Split) of our  restricted  common stock at
$0.25 ($0.75 Post Reverse Stock Split) per share; and (ii) an aggregate $917,123
in related party  advances and the  acquisition  of the interest in the Boggs #1
well (the "Debt Settlement") by the issuance of an aggregate of 4,585,616 shares
Pre Reverse  Stock  Split  (1,528,538  shares Post  Reverse  Stock  Split).  The
difference between the estimated fair value of the common shares at issuance and
the amount of the debt settled in the Related Party Debt Settlement and the Debt
Settlement  totaled  $378,803  and  $45,857,  respectively,  was included on the
recorded  finance  costs.  See  "Item  5.  Market  for  Common  Equity,  Related
Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities."

Stockholders'  Deficit  increased from ($960,600) for fiscal year ended December
31, 2007 to  Stockholders'  Equity of $1,208,509  for fiscal year ended December
31, 2008.

CASH FLOWS FROM OPERATING ACTIVITIES

We have not generated positive cash flows from operating activities.  For fiscal
year ended  December 31, 2008,  net cash flows used in operating  activities was
($1,194,461), consisting primarily of a net loss of ($2,021,930). Net cash flows
used  in  operating   activities   was  adjusted  by  $436,955  in  stock  based
compensation  and $424,660 in financing  costs. Net cash flows used in operating
activities was further changed by $59,420  relating to an accrual due to related
parties,  ($85,653) in accounts payable and accrued liabilities,  and a decrease
of ($7,913) related to other current assets.  For fiscal year ended December 31,
2007,  net cash flows used in operating  activities was  ($385,194),  consisting
primarily  of a net loss of  ($817,021),  and  changed by  $269,877  in accounts
payable and accrued liabilities,  $191,086 due to related parties and a decrease
of ($29,136) in other current assets.


                                       33



CASH FLOWS FROM INVESTING ACTIVITIES

For fiscal  year  ended  December  31,  2008,  net cash flows used in  investing
activities was ($78,841) for acquisition of oil and gas  properties.  For fiscal
year ended  December 31, 2007,  net cash flows used in investing  activities was
($1,479,032) for the acquisition of oil and gas properties.

CASH FLOWS FROM FINANCING ACTIVITIES

We have  financed  our  operations  primarily  from either  advancements  or the
issuance  of equity and debt  instruments.  For fiscal year ended  December  31,
2008, net cash flows provided from financing  activities was $1,272,087 compared
to $1,874,500 for fiscal year ended December 31, 2007. Cash flows from financing
activities  for fiscal year ended  December  31, 2008  consisted  of $897,087 in
proceeds on sale and  subscriptions  of common stock and a net total of $375,000
in advances  from related  parties.  Cash flows from  financing  activities  for
fiscal year ended December 31, 2007  consisted of $759,000 in drilling  advances
and $1,115,500 in advances from related parties.

We expect that working capital requirements will continue to be funded through a
combination  of our  existing  funds and further  issuances of  securities.  Our
working capital requirements are expected to increase in line with the growth of
our business.

PLAN OF OPERATION AND FUNDING

Existing working capital, further advances and debt instruments, and anticipated
cash flow are expected to be adequate to fund our  operations  over the next six
months.  We have no  lines  of  credit  or other  bank  financing  arrangements.
Generally,  we have  financed  operations  to date  through the  proceeds of the
private  placement  of  equity  and debt  instruments.  In  connection  with our
business plan, management anticipates additional increases in operating expenses
and capital expenditures relating to: (i) oil and gas operating properties; (ii)
possible drilling  initiatives on current properties and future properties;  and
(iii) future  property  acquisitions.  We intend to finance these  expenses with
further issuances of securities,  and debt issuances.  Thereafter,  we expect we
will need to raise  additional  capital and generate  revenues to meet long-term
operating  requirements.  Additional  issuances  of equity or  convertible  debt
securities will result in dilution to our current  shareholders.  Further,  such
securities  might have rights,  preferences  or privileges  senior to our common
stock.  Additional  financing may not be available upon acceptable  terms, or at
all. If adequate  funds are not  available or are not  available  on  acceptable
terms,  we may not be  able  to  take  advantage  of  prospective  new  business
endeavors or opportunities,  which could  significantly and materially  restrict
our business operations.

During  fiscal year ended  December 31, 2008,  we completed a private  placement
consisting  of  1,224,000  units at the price of $0.75 per unit for total  gross
proceeds of $918,000  excluding  finders fees of  $(20,913).  During fiscal year
ended December 31, 2008, we closed a private placement offering under Regulation
S of the  Securities  Act  pursuant to which we issued an aggregate of 7,576,068
shares Pre Reverse Stock Split  (2,525,356  shares Post Reverse Stock Split) and
received gross  proceeds of $1,515,214,  of which all consisted of settlement of
debt relating to amounts  previously  advanced to us by one of our  shareholders
and related accrued interest. Effective March 24, 2008, we also closed a further


                                       34



private placement  offering under Regulation S of the Securities Act pursuant to
which we issued an  aggregate  of  4,585,616  shares  Pre  Reverse  Stock  Split
(1,528,538  shares Post  Reverse  Stock  Split and  received  gross  proceeds of
$962,980,  of which all consisted of settlement of debt and  acquisition  of the
interest in the Boggs #1 well.

MATERIAL COMMITMENTS

During fiscal year ended  December 31, 2007, an aggregate of $1,365,500  was due
and owing to one of our shareholders relating to advances. Subsequently,  during
fiscal year ended December 31, 2008,  additional advances were made by this same
shareholder  to us of $885,000 for an  aggregate  amount of  $2,250,500  due and
owing.  During fiscal year ended  December 31, 2008, we repaid  $500,000 to this
shareholder.  Further,  the  shareholder  assigned the amount of  $1,515,214  to
various  assignees  and  settled  the  $1,515,214  pursuant  to the  issuance of
7,576,068  shares Pre Reverse Stock Split  (2,525,356  shares Post Reverse Stock
Split) of our restricted  common stock at $0.25 ($0.75 Post Reverse Stock Split)
per share. The difference  between the estimated fair value of the common shares
at issuance and the amount of debt settled  totaling  $378,803 was recorded as a
finance  cost. As a result,  as at December 31, 2008, an aggregate  $310,000 was
due and owing to this shareholder,  which bears interest at 8% per annum and has
no specific repayment terms. As at December 31, 2008, total accrued interest was
$19,164.

PURCHASE OF SIGNIFICANT EQUIPMENT

We do not intend to purchase any  significant  equipment  during the next twelve
months.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

As of the date of this  Annual  Report,  we do not have  any  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 investors.

GOING CONCERN

The independent auditors' report accompanying our December 31, 2008 and December
31, 2007  financial  statements  contains an  explanatory  paragraph  expressing
substantial  doubt  about  our  ability  to  continue  as a going  concern.  The
financial  statements  have been prepared  "assuming  that we will continue as a
going concern," which  contemplates  that we will realize our assets and satisfy
our liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 163,  ACCOUNTING  FOR FINANCIAL  GUARANTEE
INSURANCE CONTRACTS ("SFAS 163"). SFAS 163 clarifies how SFAS 60, ACCOUNTING AND
REPORTING BY INSURANCE  ENTERPRISES  applies to  financial  guarantee  insurance
contracts  issued  by  insurance  enterprises,  including  the  recognition  and
measurement of premium revenue and claim liabilities.  It also requires expanded
disclosures about financial guarantee insurance contracts. SFAS 163 is effective


                                       35



for our interim period commencing  January 1, 2009, except for disclosures about
an insurance enterprise's  risk-management  activities,  which are effective for
our interim  period  commencing  July 1, 2008.  We do not expect the adoption of
SFAS 163 to have a material  impact on our  financial  position,  cash flows and
results of operations.

In March  2008,  the FASB  issued SFAS No.  161,  DISCLOSURES  ABOUT  DERIVATIVE
INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES ("SFAS 161"). SFAS 161 is intended to improve
financial  reporting  about  derivative  instruments  and hedging  activities by
requiring  enhanced  disclosures to enable investors to better  understand their
effects on an  entity's  financial  position,  financial  performance,  and cash
flows. SFAS 161 achieves these improvements by requiring  disclosure of the fair
values of derivative instruments and their gains and losses in a tabular format.
It also  provides  more  information  about an entity's  liquidity  by requiring
disclosure of  derivative  features that are credit  risk-related.  Finally,  it
requires  cross-referencing within footnotes to enable financial statement users
to locate important information about derivative  instruments.  SFAS 161 will be
effective for financial  statements  issued for fiscal years and interim periods
beginning  after November 15, 2008 and will be adopted by the Company  beginning
in the first  quarter  of 2009.  The  Company  does not  expect  there to be any
significant  impact of adopting SFAS 161 on its financial  position,  cash flows
and results of operations.

In February 2007, the Financial  Accounting  Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial  Accounting  Standards  No. 159, THE FAIR VALUE  OPTION FOR  FINANCIAL
ASSETS AND FINANCIAL  LIABILITIES - INCLUDING AN AMENDMENT OF FASB STATEMENT NO.
115 ("SFAS No. 159").  This statement permits entities to choose to measure many
financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to
improve  financial  reporting  by providing  entities  with the  opportunity  to
mitigate  volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and
liabilities  differently  without  having  to  apply  complex  hedge  accounting
provisions.  This  Statement  is  expected  to  expand  the  use of  fair  value
measurement,   which  is  consistent  with  the  Board's  long-term  measurement
objectives for accounting for financial instruments. This statement is effective
as of the  beginning  of our first  fiscal year that begins  after  November 15,
2007,  although  earlier adoption is permitted.  Effective  January 1, 2008, the
Company  adopted  this  statement.  To date,  the Company  has not applied  this
standard to the measurement of any reported amounts.  Accordingly,  the adoption
of this  standard did not have any impact on the Company's  financial  position,
cash flows or results of operations.

In December  2007,  the FASB issued  SFAS No.  160,  NONCONTROLLING  INTEREST IN
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS,  AN AMENDMENT OF ARB NO. 51 ("SFAS No. 160"),
which will change the  accounting  and reporting for minority  interests,  which
will  be  recharacterized  as  noncontrolling  interests  and  classified  as  a
component of equity  within the  consolidated  balance  sheets.  SFAS No. 160 is
effective as of the beginning of an entity's  first fiscal year  beginning on or
after  December 15, 2008.  Earlier  adoption is  prohibited.  Management has not
determined the effect that adopting this  statement  would have on our financial
position or results of operations.

In  December  2007,  the FASB  issued  SFAS No.  141  (Revised  2007),  BUSINESS
COMBINATIONS  ("SFAS No.  141R").  SFAS No. 141R will change the  accounting for
business combinations. Under SFAS No. 141R, an acquiring entity will be required
to recognize all the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a transaction at
the  acquisition-date  fair value with  limited  exceptions.  SFAS No. 141R will


                                       36



change the accounting  treatment and disclosure for certain  specific items in a
business   combination.   SFAS  No.  141R  applies   prospectively  to  business
combinations  for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the
entity's first annual  reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008.
Accordingly,  any business combinations completed by us prior to January 1, 2009
will be recorded and  disclosed  following  existing  GAAP.  Management  has not
determined the effect that adopting this  statement  would have on our financial
position or results of operations.

In  September  2006,  FASB issued SFAS No. 157,  FAIR VALUE  MEASURE  ("SFAS No.
157"). This Statement defines fair value,  establishes a framework for measuring
fair  value  in  generally  accepted  accounting   principles  (GAAP),   expands
disclosures  about fair value  measurements,  and applies under other accounting
pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 does
not require any new fair value measurements.  However, the FASB anticipates that
for some entities, the application of SFAS No. 157 will change current practice.
SFAS No. 157 is  effective  for  financial  statements  issued for fiscal  years
beginning  after  November  15,  2007,  which for the Company is the fiscal year
beginning January 1, 2008. The adoption of this standard did not have any impact
on the Company's financial position, cash flows or results of operations.

             REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


To The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Morgan Creek Energy, Corp.
Las Vegas, Nevada

We have audited the  accompanying  balance sheets of Morgan Creek Energy,  Corp.
(An Exploration Stage Company) as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the related
statements of operations,  stockholder's  deficit,  and cash flows for the years
then ended and from  inception  (October 19,  2004) to December 31, 2008.  These
financial  statements are the  responsibility of the Company's  management.  Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements based on our
audit.

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.  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 financial  statements  referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects,  the financial position of Morgan Creek Energy,  Corp. as
of December  31, 2008 and 2007,  and the  results of their  operations  and cash
flows for the years then ended and from inception (October 19, 2004) to December
31, 2008 in conformity  with  accounting  principles  generally  accepted in the
United States.

The accompanying  financial  statements have been prepared  assuming the Company
will  continue  as a going  concern.  As  discussed  in Note 1 to the  financial
statements,  the Company has suffered  recurring losses from  operations,  which
raise  substantial  doubt  about its  ability to  continue  as a going  concern.
Management's  plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The
financial  statements do not include any adjustments  that might result from the
outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
________________________________________________________________________________

Morgan Creek Energy Corp. (the  "Company") is an exploration  stage company that
was  organized to enter into the oil and gas  industry.  The Company  intends to
locate, explore, acquire and develop oil and gas properties in the United States
and within North America.  The primary  activity and focus of the Company is its
leases  in  Texas  ("Quachita  Prospect").  To date  the  Company  has  acquired
approximately  1,971 net acres.  During the  production  testing and  evaluation
period on the first well on the property,  the Boggs #1, four of the five tested
zones produced significant volumes of natural gas. Analysis of the gas indicates
a "sweet"  condensate rich gas with BTU values of 1,000. This quality will yield
a premium price over the current U.S.  average  natural gas price.  As formation
water was also produced  with the natural gas in the tested zones,  the Boggs #1
is currently under evaluation.

During the period the Company has begun leasing  acreage in New Mexico.  To date
the Company has acquired approximately 7,576 net acres. Subsequent to the period
ending  December  31,  2008,  the  Company  entered  into an option  to  acquire
approximately 7,763 additional net acres in New Mexico. (Refer to Note 8)

GOING CONCERN

The Company  commenced  operations  on October 19, 2004 and has not realized any
revenues  since  inception.  As  of  December  31,  2008,  the  Company  has  an
accumulated deficit of $6,984,708 and a working capital deficit of $594,434. The
ability of the Company to continue as a going  concern is  dependent  on raising
capital  to fund  ongoing  operations  and  carry  out  its  business  plan  and
ultimately to attain  profitable  operations.  Accordingly,  these factors raise
substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. To
date the Company has funded its initial  operations by way of private placements
of common stock and advances from related parties.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
________________________________________________________________________________

ORGANIZATION

The Company  was  incorporated  on October 19, 2004 in the State of Nevada.  The
Company's fiscal year end is December 31.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

These financial  statements are presented in United States dollars and have been
prepared  in  accordance  with  United  States  generally  accepted   accounting
principles.

OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES

The  Company  follows  the full cost  method of  accounting  for its oil and gas
operations  whereby all costs related to the acquisition of methane,  petroleum,
and natural gas interests are capitalized. Under this method, all productive and
non-productive  costs  incurred  in  connection  with  the  exploration  for and
development of oil and gas reserves are capitalized. Such costs include land and
lease acquisition  costs,  annual carrying charges of non-producing  properties,
geological and geophysical costs, costs of drilling and equipping productive and
non-productive  wells,  and direct  exploration  salaries and related  benefits.
Proceeds from the disposal of oil and gas properties are recorded as a reduction
of the related  capitalized  costs without  recognition of a gain or loss unless
the  disposal  would  result in a change of 20 percent or more in the  depletion
rate. The Company currently operates solely in the U.S.

Depreciation  and depletion of proved oil and gas  properties is computed on the
units-of-production   method  based  upon  estimates  of  proved  reserves,   as
determined by  independent  consultants,  with oil and gas being  converted to a
common unit of measure based on their relative energy content.

The costs of acquisition  and  exploration  of unproved oil and gas  properties,
including  any  related  capitalized   interest  expense,  are  not  subject  to
depletion,  but  are  assessed  for  impairment  either  individually  or  on an
aggregated  basis. The costs of certain  unevaluated  leasehold acreage are also
not  subject to  depletion.  Costs not  subject to  depletion  are  periodically
assessed for possible  impairment  or  reductions  in  recoverable  value.  If a
reduction in  recoverable  value has  occurred,  costs  subject to depletion are
increased or a charge is made  against  earnings  for those  operations  where a
reserve base is not yet established.

                            MORGAN CREEK ENERGY CORP.
                         (An Exploration Stage Company)

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                DECEMBER 31, 2008
                                    (AUDITED)
________________________________________________________________________________


NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
________________________________________________________________________________

OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES (CONTINUED)

Estimated future removal and site  restoration  costs are provided over the life
of  proven  reserves  on  a  units-of-production  basis.  Costs,  which  include
production equipment removal and environmental  remediation,  are estimated each
period by management based on current regulations, actual expenses incurred, and
technology and industry  standards.  The charge is included in the provision for
depletion and depreciation and the actual  restoration  expenditures are charged
to the accumulated provision amounts as incurred.

The Company applies a ceiling test to capitalized  costs which limits such costs
to the aggregate of the estimated  present value,  using a ten percent  discount
rate of the estimated  future net revenues from production of proven reserves at
year end at market  prices less future  production,  administrative,  financing,
site  restoration,  and  income  tax costs  plus the lower of cost or  estimated
market value of unproved  properties.  If  capitalized  costs are  determined to
exceed estimated future net revenues,  a write-down of carrying value is charged
to depletion in the period.

ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS

The Company has adopted the  provisions of SFAS No. 143,  "Accounting  for Asset
Retirement Obligations." SFAS No. 143 requires the fair value of a liability for
an asset  retirement  obligation  to be  recognized in the period in which it is
incurred  if a  reasonable  estimate of fair value can be made.  The  associated
asset  retirement  costs are  capitalized as part of the carrying  amount of the
related oil and gas properties.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial  statements in conformity  with generally  accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect  the  reported  amounts  of assets  and  liabilities  and  disclosure  of
contingent  assets and  liabilities at the date of the financial  statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period.  Actual results
could differ from those  estimates.  Significant  areas  requiring  management's
estimates  and  assumptions  are  the   determination   of  the  fair  value  of
transactions  involving  common  stock and  financial  instruments.  Other areas
requiring estimates include deferred tax balances and asset impairment tests.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

For the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with maturity of
three months or less are considered to be cash  equivalents.  There were no cash
equivalents  as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 that  exceeded  federally  insured
limits.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The fair  value of the  Company's  financial  assets and  financial  liabilities
approximate their carrying values due to the immediate or short-term maturity of
these financial instruments.

EARNINGS (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE

Basic earnings (loss) per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing
income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common
shares  outstanding for the period.  Dilutive earnings (loss) per share reflects
the  potential  dilution of  securities  that could share in the earnings of the
Company.  Dilutive  earnings (loss) per share is equal to that of basic earnings
(loss) per share as the effects of stock options and warrants have been excluded
as they are anti-dilutive.

INCOME TAXES

The Company follows the liability  method of accounting for income taxes.  Under
this method,  deferred tax assets and  liabilities are recognized for the future
tax  consequences  attributable to differences  between the financial  statement
carrying  amounts of existing assets and  liabilities  and their  respective tax
balances.  Deferred tax assets and  liabilities  are measured  using  enacted or
substantially  enacted tax rates  expected to apply to the taxable income in the
years in which those  differences  are expected to be recovered 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 date of  enactment  or
substantive  enactment.  As at December 31, 2008,  the Company had net operating
loss carryforwards,  however, due to the uncertainty of realization, the Company
has provided a full  valuation  allowance for the deferred tax assets  resulting
from these loss carryforwards.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of
Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Statement No. 123(R),  SHARE-BASED
PAYMENT,   ("SFAS   123R").   The   Company   adopted   SFAS   123R   using  the
modified-prospective-transition  method.  Under this method,  compensation  cost
recognized for the year ended December 31, 2006 includes:  a) compensation  cost
for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of December
31, 2005,  based on the grant-date  fair value  estimated in accordance with the
original  provisions of SFAS 123, and b)  compensation  cost for all share-based
payments  granted  subsequent to December 31, 2005, based on the grant-date fair
value  estimated in  accordance  with the  provisions of SFAS 123R. In addition,
deferred  stock  compensation  related to  non-vested  options is required to be
eliminated  against  additional  paid-in capital upon adoption of SFAS 123R. The
results for the prior periods were not restated.

The Company accounts for equity  instruments  issued in exchange for the receipt
of goods or services from other than  employees in accordance  with SFAS No. 123
and the conclusions  reached by the Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") in Issue
No.  96-18.  Costs  are  measured  at the  estimated  fair  market  value of the
consideration  received or the  estimated  fair value of the equity  instruments
issued,  whichever is more reliably measurable.  The value of equity instruments
issued for  consideration  other than  employee  services is  determined  on the
earliest  of a  performance  commitment  or  completion  of  performance  by the
provider of goods or services as defined by EITF 96-18.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 163,  ACCOUNTING  FOR FINANCIAL  GUARANTEE
INSURANCE CONTRACTS ("SFAS 163"). SFAS 163 clarifies how SFAS 60, ACCOUNTING AND
REPORTING BY INSURANCE  ENTERPRISES  applies to  financial  guarantee  insurance
contracts  issued  by  insurance  enterprises,  including  the  recognition  and
measurement of premium revenue and claim liabilities.  It also requires expanded
disclosures about financial guarantee insurance contracts. SFAS 163 is effective
for the  Company's  interim  period  commencing  January  1,  2009,  except  for
disclosures about an insurance enterprise's  risk-management  activities,  which
are effective for the Company's  interim  period  commencing  July 1, 2008.  The
Company  does not expect the  adoption of SFAS 163 to have a material  impact on
the Company's financial position, cash flows and results of operations.

In March  2008,  the FASB  issued SFAS No.  161,  DISCLOSURES  ABOUT  DERIVATIVE
INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES ("SFAS 161"). SFAS 161 is intended to improve
financial  reporting  about  derivative  instruments  and hedging  activities by
requiring  enhanced  disclosures to enable investors to better  understand their
effects on an  entity's  financial  position,  financial  performance,  and cash
flows. SFAS 161 achieves these improvements by requiring  disclosure of the fair
values of derivative instruments and their gains and losses in a tabular format.
It also  provides  more  information  about an entity's  liquidity  by requiring
disclosure of  derivative  features that are credit  risk-related.  Finally,  it
requires  cross-referencing within footnotes to enable financial statement users
to locate important information about derivative  instruments.  SFAS 161 will be
effective for financial  statements  issued for fiscal years and interim periods
beginning after November 15, 2008,  will be adopted by the Company  beginning in
the first quarter of 2009.  The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 161
to have a material impact on the Company's  financial  position,  cash flows and
results of operations.

In February 2007, the Financial  Accounting  Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial  Accounting  Standards  No. 159, THE FAIR VALUE  OPTION FOR  FINANCIAL
ASSETS AND FINANCIAL  LIABILITIES - INCLUDING AN AMENDMENT OF FASB STATEMENT NO.
115 ("SFAS No. 159").  This statement permits entities to choose to measure many
financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to
improve  financial  reporting  by providing  entities  with the  opportunity  to
mitigate  volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and
liabilities  differently  without  having  to  apply  complex  hedge  accounting
provisions.  This  Statement  is  expected  to  expand  the  use of  fair  value
measurement,   which  is  consistent  with  the  Board's  long-term  measurement
objectives for accounting for financial instruments. This statement is effective
as of the  beginning  of the  Company's  first  fiscal  year that  begins  after
November 15, 2007, although earlier adoption is permitted.  Effective January 1,
2008, the Company adopted this  statement.  To date, the Company has not applied
this  standard to the  measurement  of any reported  amounts.  Accordingly,  the
adoption of this  standard  did not have any impact on the  Company's  financial
position, cash flows or results of operations.

In December  2007,  the FASB issued  SFAS No.  160,  NONCONTROLLING  INTEREST IN
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS,  AN AMENDMENT OF ARB NO. 51 ("SFAS No. 160"),
which will change the  accounting  and reporting for minority  interests,  which
will  be  recharacterized  as  noncontrolling  interests  and  classified  as  a
component of equity within the consolidated balance sheets.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
________________________________________________________________________________

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT (CONTINUED)

SFAS No. 160 is effective as of the  beginning of an entity's  first fiscal year
beginning on or after December 15, 2008.  Earlier  adoption is  prohibited.  The
Company has not yet determined the effect,  if any, that adopting this statement
would  have on the  Company's  financial  position,  cash  flows or  results  of
operations.

In  December  2007,  the FASB  issued  SFAS No.  141  (Revised  2007),  BUSINESS
COMBINATIONS  ("SFAS No.  141R").  SFAS No. 141R will change the  accounting for
business combinations. Under SFAS No. 141R, an acquiring entity will be required
to recognize all the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a transaction at
the  acquisition-date  fair value with  limited  exceptions.  SFAS No. 141R will
change the accounting  treatment and disclosure for certain  specific items in a
business   combination.   SFAS  No.  141R  applies   prospectively  to  business
combinations  for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the
entity's first annual  reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008.
Accordingly, any business combinations completed by the Company prior to January
1, 2009 will be recorded and disclosed  following existing GAAP. The Company has
not yet determined the effect,  if any, that adopting this statement  would have
on the Company's financial position, cash flows or results of operations.

In  September  2006,  FASB issued SFAS No. 157,  FAIR VALUE  MEASURE  ("SFAS No.
157"). This Statement defines fair value,  establishes a framework for measuring
fair  value  in  generally  accepted  accounting   principles  (GAAP),   expands
disclosures  about fair value  measurements,  and applies under other accounting
pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 does
not require any new fair value measurements.  However, the FASB anticipates that
for some entities, the application of SFAS No. 157 will change current practice.
SFAS No. 157 is  effective  for  financial  statements  issued for fiscal  years
beginning  after  November  15,  2007,  which for the Company is the fiscal year
beginning January 1, 2008. The adoption of this standard did not have any impact
on the Company's financial position, cash flows or results of operations.

evaluation  of the well. Of the five tested  zones,  four  produced  significant
volumes of natural gas. As formation  water was also  produced  with the natural
gas in the tested zones, the Boggs # 1 is currently under  evaluation.  To date,
$1,357,208  has been  incurred on drilling and  completion  expenditures  on the
Boggs #1. The Boggs #1 was initially privately funded with the funding investors

providing 100% of all drilling and completion  costs.  To December 31, 2007, the
Company had incurred  $1,335,781 of costs on Boggs #1 and had received  $759,000
in funding from the private investors. On March 24, 2008, the Company negotiated
with the funding  investors to acquire their  interest in the well for an amount
equal to the  total  amount  of their  initial  investment  being  $759,000  and
forgiveness  of any  additional  amounts  owing.  Effective  March 24, 2008, the
Company  completed  this  acquisition  and  settlement  through the  issuance of

NOTE 5 - STOCK OPTION PLAN
________________________________________________________________________________

On April 3, 2006, the Board of Directors of the Company  ratified,  approved and
adopted a Stock  Option Plan for the Company in the amount of  1,666,667  shares
with an exercisable period up to 10 years. In the event an optionee ceases to be
employed by or to provide  services to the Company for reasons other than cause,
any Stock  Option that is vested and held by such  optionee  may be  exercisable
within up to ninety  calendar  days after the  effective  date that his position
ceases. No Stock Option granted under the Stock Option Plan is transferable. Any
Stock  Option held by an optionee at the time of his death may be  exercised  by
his estate  within one year of his death or such  longer  period as the Board of
Directors may  determine.  On April 28, 2008,  the Board of Directors  deemed it
necessary  to approve an  amendment  to the Stock Option Plan to an aggregate of
5,000,000 shares.

As approved by the Board of directors, on December 12, 2006, the Company granted
616,668  stock  options to certain  officers,  directors  and  management of the
Company at $3.30 per share.  The term of these options are five years. The total
fair value of these  options at the date of grant was estimated to be $1,527,170
and was recorded as a stock based  compensation  expense  during 2006.  The fair
value of these  options was estimated  using the  Black-Scholes  option  pricing
model  with the  following  assumptions:  expected  life of 3 years;  risk  free
interest rate of 4.49%; dividend yield of 0% and expected volatility of 187%.

As approved by the Board of  Directors on April 30,  2008,  the Company  granted
1,250,000  stock options to certain  officers,  directors and  management of the
Company at $1.00 per share.  The term of these options are ten years.  The total
fair value of these  options at the date of grant was  estimated  to be $436,955
and was recorded as a stock based  compensation  expense during the period.  The
fair value of these options was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing
model  with the  following  assumptions:  expected  life of 10 years;  risk free
interest rate of 3.77%; dividend yield of 0% and expected volatility of 210%.

NOTE 7 - INCOME TAXES
________________________________________________________________________________

The Company has adopted the FASB No. 109 for reporting purposes.  As of December
31,  2008,  and 2007 the  Company  had net  operating  loss  carry  forwards  of
approximately  $4,596,000 and $3,436,000  respectively  that may be available to
reduce future years' taxable income through 2028.  Future tax benefits which may
arise as a result of these losses have not been  recognized  in these  financial
statements,  as  their  realization  is  determined  not  likely  to  occur  and
accordingly, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance for the deferred tax
asset relating to these tax loss carryforwards.

At December 31, 2008 and 2007,  the Company had a federal  operating  loss carry
forward of $4,595,923 and $3,435,608, respectively.

The provision for income taxes  consisted of the  following  components  for the
years ended December 31:
                                         2008                   2007

                                      ===========           ===========

The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2008 and 2007
was $1,608,573 and  $1,202,463,  respectively.  In assessing the recovery of the
deferred  tax assets,  management  considers  whether it is more likely than not
that some portion or all of the  deferred  tax assets will not be realized.  The
ultimate  realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of
future taxable income in the periods in which those temporary differences become
deductible.  Management considers the scheduled reversals of future deferred tax
assets,  projected future taxable income, and tax planning  strategies in making
this assessment.  As a result, management determined it was more likely than not
the deferred tax assets would be realized as of December 31, 2008 and 2007.

Reconciliation  between  the  statutory  rate and the  effective  tax rate is as
follows at December 31:

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

     We have  performed  an  evaluation  under  the  supervision  and  with  the
participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and
Chief Financial Officer (CFO), of the  effectiveness of our disclosure  controls
and procedures,  (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange
Act).  Based on that  evaluation,  our  management,  including  our CEO and CFO,
concluded  that our  disclosure  controls and  procedures  were  effective as of
December 31, 2008 to provide reasonable  assurance that information  required to
be  disclosed  by us in the reports  filed or submitted by us under the Exchange
Act is recorded,  processed,  summarized  and  reported  within the time periods
specified in the SEC's rules and forms.

MANAGEMENT'S ANNUAL REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

     The Company's  management is responsible for  establishing  and maintaining
adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f)
under the Exchange Act). Under the supervision and with the participation of the
Company's  management,  including  the chief  executive  officer  and  principal
financial  officer,  we evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over
financial  reporting  as of  December  31,  2008.  In  making  this  assessment,
management   used  the  criteria  set  forth  by  the  Committee  of  Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO") in Internal Control-Integrated
Framework.

     This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our registered
public  accounting  firm De Joya  Griffith &  Company,  LLC  regarding  internal
control  over  financial  reporting.  Management's  report  was not  subject  to
attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules
of the SEC that  permit us to provide  only  management's  report in this Annual
Report on Form 10-K.

INHERENT LIMITATIONS ON EFFECTIVENESS OF CONTROLS

     We  believe  that a  controls  system,  no  matter  how well  designed  and
operated,  cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls
system are met, and no  evaluation  of controls can provide  absolute  assurance
that all control  issues and instances of fraud,  if any,  within a company have
been detected.  Our  disclosure  controls and procedures are designed to provide
reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and our CEO and our CFO have
concluded that these  controls and  procedures are effective at the  "reasonable
assurance" level.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLS

The  Company's  management  had  remediated  the material  weaknesses  that were
reported  from its 10-K/A for the fiscal year end  December  31, 2007 which were
filed on 10/2/2008.  A) Management  implemented an audit committee that oversees
and monitors the Company's  financials (See Paragraph on Audit committee  report
below).  B)  Adequate  segregation  of duties  were put in place to  reduce  the
likelihood that errors  (intentional or unintentional) will remain undetected by
providing for separate processing by different  individuals at various stages of
a transaction  and for  independent  reviews of the work  performed.  No further
significant  changes were  implemented  in our internal  controls over financial
reporting  during  the  period  covered  by this  report  that  have  materially
affected,  or are reasonably likely to materially  affect,  our internal control
over financial reporting.


                                       52



AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

The Board of Directors has  established an audit  committee.  The members of the
audit  committee  are Mr.  Marcus  Johnson,  Mr.  Angelo  Viard and Mr. D. Bruce
Horton.  All of the members of the audit committee are "independent"  within the
meaning of Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange  Act. The current  audit  committee was
organized on December 18, 2008 and operates under a written  charter  adopted by
our Board of Directors.

The audit  committee has received and reviewed the written  disclosures  and the
letter from De Joya Griffith & Company,  LLC required by Independence  Standards
Board  Standard  No. 1,  Independence  Discussions  with  Audit  Committees,  as
amended.

Based on the reviews and discussions  referred to above, the audit committee has
recommended to the Board of Directors that the financial  statements referred to
above be  included  in our  Annual  Report on Form 10-K for  fiscal  year  ended
December 31, 2008 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

ITEM  9.  CHANGES  IN AND  DISAGREEMENTS  WITH  ACCOUNTANTS  ON  ACCOUNTING  AND
          FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

Effective  July 31, 2007,  our Board of Directors  appointed De Joya  Griffith &
Company, LLC (De Joya Griffith) as our principal  independent  registered public
accounting firm.

The reports of De Joya  Griffith  on our  financial  statements  for each of the
fiscal years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 did not contain an adverse opinion
or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they modified as to uncertainty,  audit scope
or accounting principles, other than to state that there is substantial doubt as
to our  ability to continue as a going  concern.  During our fiscal  years ended
December 31, 2008 and 2007, there were no  disagreements  between us and De Joya
Griffith,  whether or not resolved,  on any matter of  accounting  principles or
practices,  financial  statement  disclosure,  or auditing  scope or  procedure,
which,  if not  resolved to the  satisfaction  of De Joya  Griffith,  would have
caused De Joya  Griffith  to make  reference  thereto  in their  reports  on our
audited financial statements.

COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

pursuant to a special meeting held on December 18, 2008 adopted an amended audit
committee charter and responsibilities.

The Audit Committee's  primary function is to provide advice with respect to our

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE

As of the date of this Annual  Report,  Messrs.  Johnson,  Viard and Horton have
been  appointed  as  members to our  Compensation  Committee.  The  Compensation
Committee  operates  under a written  charter  adopted by the Board of Directors
pursuant to a special meeting held on December 18, 2008.

         OVERVIEW OF COMPENSATION PROCESS

The Compensation  Committee of our Board of Directors is responsible for setting
the compensation of our executive officers, overseeing the Board's evaluation of
the performance of our executive  officers and  administering  our  equity-based
incentive plans, 401(k) plan and deferred compensation plan, among other things.


                                       59



The  Compensation  Committee  undertakes  these  responsibilities  pursuant to a
written  charter  adopted  by  the  Compensation  Committee  and  the  Board  of
Directors,  which  will  be  reviewed  at  least  annually  by the  Compensation
Committee.   The   charter   may   be   viewed   in   full   on   our   website,
www.morgancreekcorp.com  under the  "Corporate  Governance"  tab on the Investor
Relations page.

The  Compensation  Committee is composed solely of  "non-employee  directors" as
defined in Rule 16b-3 of the rules  promulgated under the Exchange Act, "outside
directors" for purposes of regulations promulgated pursuant to Section 162(m) of
the Internal  Revenue Code ("IRC"),  and  "independent  directors" as defined in
Section  303A of the New  York  Stock  Exchange  ("NYSE")  corporate  governance
listing  standards,  in each case as determined  by the Board of Directors.  Our
Board of Directors  recommends  Compensation  Committee membership based on such
knowledge,  experience  and  skills  that  it  deems  appropriate  in  order  to
adequately perform the responsibilities of the Compensation  Committee.  Messrs.
Johnson, Horton and Viard serve as members of the Compensation Committee.

The  Compensation  Committee  annually  reviews  executive  compensation and our
compensation  policies to ensure that the Chief Executive  Officer and the other
executive officers are rewarded  appropriately for their contributions to us and
that the overall compensation strategy supports the objectives and values of our
organization,  as well as stockholder interests. The Compensation Committee will
conduct  this  review and  compensation  determination  through a  comprehensive
process involving a series of meetings typically  occurring in the first quarter
of each year.

         COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY

The fundamental objective of our executive  compensation policies is to attract,
retain and motivate  executive  leadership for us that will execute our business
strategy,  uphold our values and  deliver  results  and  long-term  value to our
stockholders.   Accordingly,   the  Compensation   Committee  seeks  to  develop
compensation  strategies  and programs  that will  attract,  retain and motivate
highly qualified and high-performing executives through compensation that is:

         (i) PERFORMANCE BASED: a significant  component of compensation  should
be determined based on whether or not we meet certain performance  criteria that
in the view of our Board of Directors are indicative of our success;

         (ii) STOCKHOLDER  BASED:  equity incentives should be used to align the
interests of our executive officers with those of our stockholders;

         (iii) FAIR:  compensation  should take into account  compensation among
similarly  situated  companies,  our success  relative to peer companies and our
overall pay scale.

It is the Compensation  Committee's  goal to have a substantial  portion of each
executive  officer's  compensation  contingent upon our performance,  as well as
upon  his  or  her  individual   performance.   The   Compensation   Committee's
compensation  philosophy for an executive officer emphasizes an overall analysis
of  the   executive's   performance   for   the   year,   projected   role   and
responsibilities,  required  impact on execution of our  strategy,  external pay
practices,  total  cash and total  direct  compensation  positioning,  and other
factors  the  Compensation   Committee  deems   appropriate.   The  Compensation
Committee's  philosophy  also considers  employee  retention,  vulnerability  to
recruitment  by other  companies and the difficulty  and costs  associated  with


                                       60



replacing executive talent. Based on these objectives, compensation programs for
similarly situated companies and the philosophies of the Compensation Committee,
the  Compensation  Committee has determined that we should provide our executive
officers  compensation  packages  composed of the following  elements:  (i) base
salary,  which reflects  individual  performance and is designed primarily to be
competitive with salary levels at comparably sized companies; and (ii) long-term
stock-based incentive awards which strengthen the mutuality of interests between
executive officers and our stockholders.

COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(A) OF THE EXCHANGE ACT

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our  directors and officers,  and the
persons who  beneficially own more than ten percent of our common stock, to file
reports of ownership and changes in ownership  with the  Securities and Exchange
Commission.  Copies of all filed  reports  are  required to be  furnished  to us
pursuant to Rule 16a-3  promulgated  under the Exchange Act. Based solely on the
reports received by us and on the  representations of the reporting persons,  we
believe that these persons have complied with all applicable filing requirements
during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008.

ADDITIONAL CORPORATE GOVERNANCE POLICIES

Our  Board of  Directors  considered  additional  corporate  governance  issues,
structure, policies and principles.  Therefore, pursuant to a Board of Directors
meeting held on December 18, 2008, our Board of Directors  adopted the following
documents as additional governing corporate governance documents  (collectively,
the Corporate  Governance  Documents"):  (i) Morgan Creek Energy Corp. Corporate
Governance Principles;  (ii) Morgan Creek Energy Corp. Nominating and Governance
Committee  Charter and  Responsibilities;  (iii) Morgan Creek Energy Corp. Board
Committees  Policy;  (iv) Morgan Creek Energy Corp. Code of Business Conduct and
Ethics;  (v)  Morgan  Creek  Energy  Corp.  Code of  Conduct  for the  Board  of
Directors; (vi) Morgan Creek Energy Corp. Corporate Governance Guideline;  (vii)

(1)  Under Rule 13d-3, a beneficial owner of a security includes any person who,
     directly or indirectly, through any contract,  arrangement,  understanding,
     relationship,  or otherwise has or shares: (i) voting power, which includes
     the power to vote, or to direct the voting of shares;  and (ii)  investment
     power,  which  includes the power to dispose or direct the  disposition  of
     shares.  Certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than
     one person (if, for example,  persons  share the power to vote or the power
     to  dispose  of  the  shares).  In  addition,   shares  are  deemed  to  be
     beneficially  owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire  the
     shares (for example, upon exercise of an option) within 60 days of the date
     as of which the information is provided. In computing the


                                       67


     percentage  ownership of any person,  the amount of shares  outstanding is
     deemed to include the amount of shares  beneficially  owned by such person
     (and only such person) by reason of these acquisition rights. As a result,
     the percentage of outstanding  shares of any person as shown in this table
     does not necessarily reflect the person's actual ownership or voting power
     with respect to the number of shares of common stock actually  outstanding
     as of the  date of  this  Annual  Report.  As of the  date of this  Annual
     Report,  there are 41,976,589  shares issued and  outstanding.  Beneficial
     ownership amounts reflect the Reverse Stock Split.

(2)  This figure includes:  (i) 1,118,750  shares of common stock;  (ii) 166,666
     Stock Options to purchase 166,666 shares of our common stock at an exercise
     price of $3.30 per share  expiring on December 15, 2011;  and (iii) 250,000
     Stock  Options to purchase  250,000  shares of our common stock at exercise
     price of $1.00 per share expiring on April 30, 2018.

(3)  This figure  includes 16,666 Stock Options to purchase 16,666 shares of our

     price of $1.10 per share  expiring on December 15, 2011;  and (iii) 250,000
