Overview
 
TOT Energy, Inc. (the “Company”), formerly Splinex Technology, Inc., was organized on February 6, 2004 under the laws of the State of Delaware as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Splinex, LLC, a Florida limited liability company, and was the surviving entity pursuant to a merger with Ener1 Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Ener1, Inc., a Florida corporation. The Company initially intended to develop advanced technologies in the three-dimensional or 3D computer graphics industry. Since October 28, 2003 (“Inception”), the date of formation of Splinex, LLC, through December 17, 2007, we operated in a development phase typical of a software company and focused on developing technologies and products and securing intellectual property rights while we developed relationships with potential customers and resellers. Under an agreement effective April 1, 2004 (the “Contribution Agreement”), Splinex, LLC contributed substantially all of its assets, liabilities and operations to the Company. Due to lack of significant sales, we substantially reduced our workforce and overhead costs beginning in September 2005. From September 2005 through July 2007, Ener1 Group, Inc., a related party, loaned us money to fund our operations. In July 2007, Ener1 Group, Inc. stopped funding our operations, except that Mr. Wolfe did receive compensation by Ener 1 Group, Inc. for legal services provided to the Company. For more information, see “Item 11. Executive Compensation.”
 
On December 17, 2007, (1) certain holders, who had received shares in the Company as distributions from Splinex LLC, transferred their ownership of 35,162,334 shares of common stock of the Company to Splinex LLC for nominal consideration, and (2) Bzinfin, S.A., a British Virgin Islands limited corporation that is indirectly owned by an affiliate of Ener1 Group, Inc., a Florida company of which Mike Zoi is a shareholder and director and which is the majority shareholder of Ener1, Inc., and Ener1 Group assigned debt obligations of the Company to Splinex LLC in the amount of $2,805,207 and $845,864, respectively. Under a Purchase Agreement dated December 17, 2007, TGR Capital, LLC (which changed its name to Enerfund, LLC in September 2008), a Florida limited liability company (“Enerfund”), which is wholly-owned by Mike Zoi, acquired all of the membership interests in Splinex LLC, thereby giving Enerfund control of Splinex LLC.
 
Under an Exchange Agreement dated December 18, 2007, the Company agreed to issue 113,500,000 newly issued shares of the Company to Splinex LLC of which 8,500,000 shares were issued to Bzinfin and 2,125,000 were issued to a former affiliate of Splinex, LLC. Splinex LLC owned 98,157,334 shares of the Company as of December 17, 2007 and an aggregate of 201,032,334 shares after the completion of the Exchange Agreement on December 18, 2007. The Company had 100,757,769 shares outstanding at December 17, 2007 and 214,257,769 shares outstanding after the completion of the Exchange Agreement. In June 2008, Splinex, LLC changed its name to TGR Energy, LLC (“TGR”).
 
On July 16, 2008, we entered into a Joint Venture Agreement (the “JV Agreement”) with Evgeny Bogorad (“Bogorad”), owner of Sibburnefteservis, Ltd. of Novosibirsk, Russia, an oil services company (“SIBBNS”). Pursuant to the JV Agreement, Bogorad has contributed certain of SIBBNS assets and personnel to a joint venture company named TOT-SIBBNS, Ltd., a Russian corporation (“TOT-SIBBNS”). An independent appraisal company has appraised the contributed assets at US$6,221,881.We ended development stage activity on July 16, 2008 when we acquired a 75% interest in the TOT-SIBBNS joint venture and began operations in the oil and gas service industry, including the exploration, development, production, and marketing of crude oil and natural gas in Russia and Kazakhstan, as well as other markets around the world.  At the closing on July 16, 2008, we issued to Bogorad 3,000,000 shares of our common stock in exchange for a 75% interest in TOT-SIBBNS.

TOT-SIBBNS obtained its first contract and began drilling operations in Fall 2008. However, financial constraints and the declining price of oil resulted in a suspension of drilling operation in January 2009. Drilling operations did not recommence during the Winter 2009 and most employees were furloughed in April 2009.

TOT-SIBBNS had expectations of continuing exploratory drilling (both through its existing customer and new customers) for the 2009/2010 drilling season as the price of oil had risen significantly and TOT-SIBBNS was able to secure an additional drilling contract in November 2009. However, in January 2010, it became questionable whether activities with TOT-SIBBNS’ initial customer would recommence in the short term, and there remained uneasiness in the market over the continued improvement in crude oil prices, which had a negative impact on the exploratory drilling market in Russia at that time.  Accordingly, on January 27, 2010, after several weeks of exploring other business opportunities, the Company altered its business focus and decided to exercise its option to unwind the joint venture and pursue other development opportunities in the alternative energy business.

The Company and TOT-SIBBNS executed an unwind agreement whereby the Company exchanged its 75% interest in TOT-SIBBNS for the 3,000,000 shares given to Evgeny Borograd in 2008. The unwind of the joint venture was consummated as of March 31, 2010. The unwind of the TOT-SIBBNS joint venture has been accounted for using the guidance provided in ASC 845 (previously APB 29), as a disposal “other than by sale” similar to a spin-off transaction, with the shares received reflected as treasury stock and recorded on the Company’s balance sheet at its carrying basis in the net assets of the joint venture as of March 31, 2010.  For more information relating to the unwind of the TOT-SIBBNS joint venture, see Note 12 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, which information is incorporated herein by reference.

Although we are not currently engaged in operating activities, we intend to focus on developing or acquiring an alternative energy solar business concentrating on commercial solar installations and other energy saving/management offerings.  

KORLEA-TOT is our 51% joint venture with Korlea Invest Holding AG of Switzerland (“Korlea”) who is a provider and trader of energy assets in the Czech Republic. The joint venture, Korlea-TOT, established as of July 17, 2008, was expected to assist in the marketing of oil assets sourced by other TOT-Energy companies and contacts. There has been no activity to date with this joint venture, but we continue to look for opportunities to implement a profitable plan with our partner, Korlea, which has expertise in energy trading.

Despite the unwind of the TOT-SIBBNS joint venture, we are working to build a diversified portfolio of energy assets. To this end, from time to time, we may be engaged in various discussions to acquire businesses or formulate joint venture or other arrangements with energy companies located around the world. Our policy is not to disclose discussions or potential transactions until definitive agreements have been executed. Where appropriate, acquisitions will be financed with equity shares and this may result in substantial dilution to existing stockholders. 
 
Several factors raise significant doubt as to our ability to continue operating as a going concern.  These factors include our history of net losses and that as of March 31, 2010, due to the unwind of the TOT-SIBBNS joint venture, we have no operations and a working capital deficit. We are dependent upon TGR or Mike Zoi (as a result of his controlling interest in TGR and our dependence on the Subscription Agreement with TGR) to fund our operations. Our independent auditors’ report on our financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2010 contains an explanatory paragraph about our ability to continue as a going concern. Management believes that our current operating strategy, as described in the preceding paragraphs, provides the opportunity for us to continue as a going concern; however, there is no assurance this will occur.
  
Our principal executive offices are located at 12100 N.E. 16 th Ave; Suite 210; Miami, FL 33161. Our telephone number is (305) 891-2288.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
 
On August 7, 2008, our Board of Directors approved a Subscription Agreement dated August 7, 2008 (the “Subscription Agreement”) with TGR, wherein TGR committed to invest up to $2,000,000 (the “Investment Amount”) in exchange for up to 100,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock for $0.02 per share. In addition, we granted TGR warrants to purchase up to 50,000,000 shares of common stock for $0.05 per share. These warrants may be exercised within five years from the date of grant. The shares and warrants are issuable under the Subscription Agreement upon the funding from time to time by TGR. The valuation date to determine the appropriate compensation charge is the last day of the quarter then ended. The Subscription Agreement was amended on January 12, 2010 to increase the Investment Amount by an additional $2,000,000 to $4,000,000 in exchange for up to an additional 100,000,000 shares of common stock and 50,000,000 warrants to purchase common stock for $0.05 per share for a period of 5 years from date of issuance.
 
For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009, TGR was issued an aggregate of 82,725,335 shares of common stock of the Company and fully vested warrants to purchase 41,362,168 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $0.05 per share pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreement. These issuances were in exchange for financings under the Subscription Agreement in the aggregate amount of $1,654,507 of which $1,017,097 was cash and $637,410 related to refinancing of previously outstanding notes payable.
 
For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, TGR was issued an aggregate of 16,186,515 shares of common stock of the Company and fully vested warrants to purchase 8,093,757 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $0.05 per share pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreement. These issuances were in exchange for financings under the Subscription Agreement in the aggregate amount of $323,730.
 
Up until May 15, 2009, Mr. New’s base salary was $140,000 with a $30,000 bonus payable quarterly for meeting agreed upon objectives.  On May 15, 2009, Mr. New’s base salary was reduced from $140,000 to $91,000 and his bonus was reduced from $30,000 to $19,500 annually. To partially offset the reduction in salary, the Company provided Mr. New with 25,000 shares of fully vested common stock in lieu of his March 31, 2009 cash bonus and 200,000 shares of common stock which vested monthly from April 1, 2009 to September 30, 2009.  On March 31, 2010, Mr. New was granted 250,000 fully vested shares of the Company’s common stock and a compensation charge of $37,500 was recorded based on the fair value of the stock issued on the date of grant.
 
Other employees (other than officers and directors) receiving salary reductions were granted a total of 50,000 shares of common stock which vested monthly between April 1, 2009 and September 30, 2009.  
 
Pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement dated November 23, 2009, TGR agreed to sell to Dune Capital Group ("Dune") an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of common stock of TOT Energy, Inc. held by TGR for a purchase price of $0.10 per share or an aggregate of $500,000. The purchase price is required to be paid on or before April 1, 2010. Dune paid $300,000 on November 23, 2009. In order to ensure compliance with obligations under Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, prior to the issuance of shares to Dune by TGR, TGR assigned this Purchase Agreement to the Company. Accordingly, the Company received $300,000 pursuant to this agreement and issued an aggregate of 3,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company to Dune on January 12, 2010.  On April 28, 2010, the Company agreed to terminate the Stock Purchase Agreement with Dune and rescind the prior issuance of common stock. The Company refunded $300,000 to Dune in exchange for return of the 3,000,000 shares of common stock previously issued.  For more information relating to the repurchase of Dune shares, see Note 13 – Subsequent Events, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, which information is incorporated herein by reference.

On November 1, 2008, the Company entered into a Letter Agreement with Olympus Securities LLC (the “Agreement”). Under the Agreement, Olympus was appointed TOT Energy’s exclusive financial advisor and investment banker (collectively, the “Services”) for a period of seven (7) months. After expiration of this initial term, the Agreement is to automatically continue on a month-to-month basis, with each party having the right to terminate on thirty (30) days notice. The Agreement included a fee of one thousand dollars ($1,000) per month in return for the Services, except for the first month, where, instead of the monthly fee, the Company granted five (5) year warrants to Olympus to purchase one million (1,000,000) shares of the Company's common stock at ten cents ($.10) per share. The warrants were valued at $149,999 and were to be amortized over the seven-month term of the Agreement. The Agreement contains other provisions relating to payments of cash, stock and warrants in connection with any future financing or investment transaction completed through Olympus. The Company has not yet paid a cash fee or provided the abovementioned warrants to Olympus due to the failure by Olympus to provide meaningful investment banking services until world financial markets stabilized and, more recently, due to the unwind of the TOT-SIBBNS joint venture.  The Company has amortized the warrant charge of $149,999 during fiscal 2010 and accrued this amount in the financial statements.

At March 31, 2010, the Company had options to purchase 1,200,000 shares of common stock outstanding under its stock option plan, of which options to purchase 750,926 shares of common stock are vested, with an exercise price of $0.25 per share and with a remaining weighted average contractual term of 4.95 years.

The Company also had warrants to purchase 49,455,925 shares of common stock outstanding at March 31, 2010 with a strike price of $0.05 per share and a remaining contractual term of 3.55 years pursuant to the Subscription Agreement.

The Company entered into a Sponsorship Agreement with American Speed Factory dated April 22, 2009, whereby the Company would receive certain marketing and promotional services and sponsorship rights to display the Company’s logo in connection with the 2009 Ferrari Challenge racing season in exchange for the issuance of 500,000 shares of restricted stock of the Company.
 
We believe that each of the foregoing securities transactions were exempt from the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, by virtue of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act which exempts transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our other filings with the Commission and the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this Annual Report.

General

We are working to build a diversified portfolio of energy assets. To this end, from time to time, we may be engaged in various discussions to acquire businesses or formulate joint venture or other arrangements with energy companies located around the world. Our policy is not to disclose discussions or potential transactions until definitive agreements have been executed. Where appropriate, acquisitions will be financed with equity shares and this may result in substantial dilution to existing stockholders.  Although we are not currently engaged in operating activities, we intend to focus on developing or acquiring an alternative energy solar business concentrating on commercial solar installations and other energy saving/management offerings. 

On July 16, 2008, we entered into a Joint Venture Agreement (the “JV Agreement”) with Evgeny Bogorad (“Bogorad”), owner of Sibburnefteservis, Ltd. of Novosibirsk, Russia, an oil services company (“SIBBNS”). Pursuant to the JV Agreement, Bogorad has contributed certain of SIBBNS assets and personnel to a joint venture company named TOT-SIBBNS, Ltd., a Russian corporation (“TOT-SIBBNS”). An independent appraisal company appraised the contributed assets at US$6,221,881. At the closing on July 16, 2008, we issued to Bogorad 3,000,000 shares of our common stock in exchange for a 75% interest in TOT-SIBBNS.

TOT-SIBBNS provides exploration services to oil exploration and production companies located in and around Novosibirsk, Russia. TOT-SIBBNS owns and operates four oil drilling rigs that generate the majority of the revenues of TOT-SIBBNS. TOT-SIBBNS uses this equipment for drilling exploratory wells for fees. In addition, TOT-SIBBNS provides engineering services and well remediation services on a contract fee basis. TOT-SIBBNS obtained its first contract and began drilling operations in the Fall 2008. However, financial constraints and the declining price of oil resulted in a suspension of drilling operation in January 2009. Drilling operations did not recommence during the Winter 2009 and most employees were furloughed in April 2009.

TOT-SIBBNS had expectations of continuing exploratory drilling (both through its existing customer and new customers) for the 2009/2010 drilling season as the price of oil had risen significantly and TOT-SIBBNS was able to secure an additional drilling contract in November 2009. However, in January 2010, it became questionable whether activities with TOT-SIBBNS’ initial customer would recommence in the short term, and there remained uneasiness in the market over the continued improvement in crude oil prices, which had a negative impact on the exploratory drilling market in Russia at that time.  Accordingly, on January 27, 2010, after several weeks of exploring other business opportunities, the Company altered its business focus and decided to exercise its option to unwind the joint venture and pursue other development opportunities in the alternative energy business.  The Company and TOT-SIBBNS executed an unwind agreement whereby the Company exchanged its 75% interest in TOT-SIBBNS for the 3,000,000 shares given to Evgeny Borograd in 2008. The unwind of the joint venture was consummated as of March 31, 2010. The unwind of the TOT-SIBBNS joint venture has been accounted for using the guidance provided in ASC 845 (previously APB 29), as a disposal “other than by sale” similar to a spin-off transaction, with the shares received reflected as treasury stock and recorded on the Company’s balance sheet at its carrying basis in the net assets of the joint venture as of March 31, 2010. Operations of TOT-SIBBNS are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements at March 31, 2010 as discontinued operations, but will not be included in the consolidated financial statements subsequent to March 31, 2010.  For more information relating to the unwind of the TOT-SIBBNS joint venture, see Note 12 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, which information is incorporated herein by reference.

Although we are not currently engaged in operating activities, we are in the process of updating our business plan and intend to focus on developing or acquiring an alternative energy solar business concentrating on commercial solar installations and other energy saving/management offerings. 

 KORLEA-TOT is our 51% joint venture with Korlea Invest Holding AG of Switzerland (“Korlea”), a provider and trader of energy assets in the Czech Republic. The joint venture, Korlea-TOT, established as of July 17, 2008, was expected to assist in the marketing of oil assets sourced by other TOT-Energy companies and contacts.  There has been no activity to date with this joint venture, but we continue to look for opportunities to implement a profitable plan with our partner, Korlea, which has expertise in energy trading.

Short term financing is provided by TGR Energy, LLC (“TGR”) as we require additional working capital, pursuant to a Subscription Agreement dated August 7, 2008 (the “Subscription Agreement”). TGR has agreed to provide up to $2,000,000 (the “Investment Amount”) in exchange for up to 100,000,000 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase up to 50,000,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.05 per share. Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, TGR will fund the Investment Amount as required in our operational budget.  TGR’s obligation to fund the Investment Amount will be reduced by any future third party funding or investment on terms no less favorable than those contained in the Subscription Agreement.  On January 12, 2010, TGR agreed to increase the Investment Amount from $2,000,000 to $4,000,000 in exchange for up to an additional 100,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and warrants to purchase up to 50,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.05 per share for a period of five years from date of issuance.

Several factors raise significant doubt as to our ability to continue operating as a going concern.  These factors include our history of net losses and that as of March 31, 2010, due to the unwind of the TOT-SIBBNS joint venture, we have no operations, and a working capital deficit. We are dependent upon TGR or Mike Zoi (as a result of his controlling interest in TGR and our dependence on the Subscription Agreement with TGR) to fund our operations. Our independent auditors’ report on our financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2010 contains an explanatory paragraph about our ability to continue as a going concern. Management believes that our current operating strategy, as described in the preceding paragraphs, provides the opportunity for us to continue as a going concern; however, there is no assurance this will occur.

Results of Operations for the Year Ended March 31, 2010 Compared to the Year Ended March 31, 2009

We had a net loss of $6,596,834 or $0.02 per share, for the year ended March 31, 2010 (“fiscal 2010”) compared to a net loss of $12,177,140, or $0.05 per share, for the year ended March 31, 2009 (“fiscal 2009”).  The net loss of $6,596,834 for fiscal 2010 includes a loss from discontinued operations of $646,017 or $0.00 per share relating to the TOT-SIBBNS joint venture (see note 12) as compared to a loss from discontinued operations of $1,799,816, or $0.01 per share relating to the TOT-SIBBNS joint venture for fiscal 2009.  Our total operating expenses from continuing operations for fiscal 2010 were $5,789,352 as compared to operating expenses for fiscal 2009 of $10,378,126.  Other expenses were $171,025 in fiscal 2010 compared with other income of $802 in fiscal 2009.

For fiscal 2010, our operating expenses consisted of $5,789,352, of which $19,540 was attributable to Korlea-TOT.  Operating expenses for fiscal 2010 related primarily to compensation expense ($4,717,677) in connection with issuances of stock and warrants pursuant to the Subscription Agreement.  Payroll expenses were $602,420, professional fees for legal, accounting, consulting and tax preparation were $115,933 and other general and administrative expenses were $333,782, consisting primarily of investor relations expenses ($83,535), travel expenses ($23,215), directors and officers insurance ($15,304), telephone expense ($11,799) and rent ($10,000).

For fiscal 2009, our operating expenses consisted of $10,378,126, of which $0 related to Korlea-TOT. Operating expenses in fiscal 2009 related primarily to compensation expense ($8,812,774) in connection with issuances of stock and warrants pursuant to the Subscription Agreement . Payroll expenses were $656,702, professional fees for legal, accounting, consulting and tax preparation were $316,857 and other general and administrative expenses were $591,793 consisting primarily of travel expenses ($118,321), rent ($101,341), investor relations expenses ($154,246), directors and officers insurance ($15,273) and telephone ($7,031). 

The non-controlling interest in loss of consolidated subsidiary was $9,560 in fiscal 2010 and $0 in fiscal 2009.  The non-controlling interest relates to the 49% non-controlling interest in Korlea-TOT retained by our joint venture partner. 

Liquidity and capital resources

At March 31, 2010, we had negative working capital of $638,279 and cash of $277,830.

Short term financing is provided primarily by TGR pursuant to the Subscription Agreement. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, TGR was issued 16,186,515 shares of common stock of the Company and fully vested warrants to purchase 8,093,757 shares of common stock of the Company for $0.05 per share in exchange for funding of $323,730 provided during the twelve months ended March 31, 2010 under the terms of the Subscription Agreement. A compensation charge of $4,717,677 was recorded for the twelve months ended March 31, 2010 as an officer of the Company is also a principal of TGR and the securities issued were below market value as of the issue date. This amount is calculated as the difference between the market price of our common stock at the end of each quarter in which shares were issued and the subscription price of the common shares ($0.02) multiplied by the number of shares issued, plus the Black-Scholes valuation of the warrants issued as calculated at the end of each quarter.
 
For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009, TGR was issued an aggregate of 82,725,335 shares of common stock of the Company and fully vested warrants to purchase 41,362,168 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $0.05 per share pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreement.  These issuances were in exchange for financings under the Subscription Agreement in the aggregate amount of $1,654,507 of which $1,017,097 was cash and $637,410 related to refinancing of previously outstanding notes payable.  A compensation charge of $8,827,218 was recorded for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009.  This amount is calculated as the difference between the market price of our common stock at the end of each quarter in which shares were issued and the subscription price of the common shares ($0.02) multiplied by the number of shares issued, plus the Black-Scholes valuation of the warrants issued as calculated at the end of each quarter.
 
Pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement dated November 23, 2009, TGR agreed to sell to Dune Capital Group ("Dune") an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of common stock of TOT Energy, Inc. held by TGR for a purchase price of $0.10 per share or an aggregate of $500,000. The purchase price is required to be paid on or before April 1, 2010. Dune paid $300,000 on November 23, 2009. In order to ensure compliance with obligations under Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, prior to the issuance of shares to Dune by TGR, TGR assigned this Purchase Agreement to the Company. Accordingly, the Company received $300,000 pursuant to this agreement and issued an aggregate of 3,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company to Dune on January 12, 2010.  On April 28, 2010 the Company agreed to terminate the Stock Purchase Agreement with Dune and rescind the prior issuance of common stock. The Company refunded $300,000 to Dune in exchange for return of the 3,000,000 shares of common stock previously issued.  For more information relating to the repurchase of Dune shares, see Note 13 – Subsequent Events, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, which information is incorporated herein by reference.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our significant accounting policies are described more fully in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements.  Management is required to make certain estimates and assumptions during the preparation of our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  These estimates and assumptions impact the reported amount of assets and liabilities as well as disclosures regarding any contingencies.  Actual results could differ from estimates and this could impact reported net income or the value of our assets and liabilities.

In applying estimates, management uses its judgment to determine the appropriate assumptions to be used in the determination of certain estimates. Those estimates are based on our historical experience, terms of existing contracts, our observance of trends in the industry, information provided by outside sources, trade journals and other sources, as appropriate.

Deferred Taxes.  Estimates of deferred income taxes and items giving rise to deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect management’s assessment of actual future taxes to be paid on items reflected in the financial statements, giving consideration to both timing and the probability of the realization.  Actual income taxes could vary from these estimates for a variety of reasons including changes in tax law, operating results that vary from budget or the review of our tax returns by the IRS.

Valuation of stock based compensation.  Stock based compensation has been provided by the Company in order to preserve the cash flow necessary to grow our business.  In addition, we entered into the Subscription Agreement described above to strengthen our available sources of capital.  We believe the estimate of stock based compensation is a “critical accounting estimate” that significantly affects our results of operations.  Management of the Company has discussed the development and selection of this critical accounting estimate with our board of directors and the board of directors has reviewed the Company’s disclosure relating to it in this Report.

Off-balance sheet arrangements

At March 31, 2010, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in Item 303(a)(4) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
 
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
 
In June 2009,  the FASB issued an amendment to ASC 810-10. This amendment requires an enterprise to qualitatively assess the determination of the primary beneficiary of a Variable Interest Entity “VIE” based on whether the enterprise: (1) has the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly effect the entity’s economic performance; and (2) has the obligation to absorb losses of the entity or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE. ASC 810-10, as amended, requires an ongoing reconsideration of the primary beneficiary, and amends the events that trigger a reassessment of whether an entity is a VIE. This statement is effective as of the beginning of a reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009. Earlier application is prohibited. Retrospective application is optional. Adoption of this standard has not had, and is not expected in the future to have, a significant impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
 
In September 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-13, “Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements.” ASU 2009-13 addresses the unit of accounting for multiple-element arrangements. In addition, ASU 2009-13 revises the method by which consideration is allocated among the units of accounting.   Specifically, the overall consideration is allocated to each deliverable by establishing a selling price for individual deliverables based on a hierarchy of evidence, involving vendor-specific objective evidence, other third party evidence of the selling price, or the reporting entity’s best estimate of the selling price of individual deliverables in the arrangement. ASU 2009-13 will be effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Adoption of this standard is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
 
Item 7A.   Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We do not have material exposure to market risks associated with changes in interest rates related to cash equivalent securities held at March 31, 2010.
 
Item 8.  Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
 
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
TOT Energy, Inc.
Miami, Florida
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of TOT Energy, Inc. (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficiency in assets and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits 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, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
 
11

 
 
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of TOT Energy, Inc. as of March 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficiency in assets and cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has experienced recurring losses and has a working capital deficit at March 31, 2010. This raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

TOT ENERGY, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization and Basis of Presentation

TOT Energy, Inc. (the “Company”), formerly Splinex Technology, Inc., was organized on February 6, 2004 under the laws of the State of Delaware as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Splinex, LLC, a Florida limited liability company, and was the surviving entity pursuant to a merger with Ener1 Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Ener1, Inc., a Florida corporation. The Company initially intended to develop advanced technologies in the three-dimensional or 3D computer graphics industry. Under an agreement effective April 1, 2004 (the “Contribution Agreement”), Splinex, LLC contributed substantially all of its assets, liabilities and operations to the Company. The Company began its development stage activity on October 28, 2003 (“Inception”), the date of formation of Splinex, LLC, and ended development stage activity on July 16, 2008 when the Company acquired a 75% interest in the TOT-SIBBNS joint venture and began operations in the oil and gas service industry.

Basis of Consolidation

The audited financial statements include the accounts of TOT Energy, Inc., the accounts of the Company’s 75% discontinued operations joint venture, TOT- SIBBNS, a limited liability company formed under the laws of Russia (also known as the Russian Federation) and the accounts of our 51% joint venture, Korlea-TOT, a limited liability company formed under the laws of the Czech Republic. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in this consolidation.

Effective March 31, 2010, the Company has deconsolidated the TOT-SIBBNS joint venture (see Note 12). Accordingly, the fiscal year to date activity for TOT-SIBBNS is reflected in the financial statements as discontinued operations. The assets and liabilities of TOT-SIBBNS have been separately classified in the March 31, 2009 balance sheet as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations.

Business Activity

The Company is working to build a diversified portfolio of energy assets. To this end, from time to time, the Company may be engaged in various discussions to acquire businesses or formulate joint venture or other arrangements with energy companies located around the world. Where appropriate, acquisitions will be financed with equity shares and this may result in substantial dilution to existing stockholders. Prior to 2008, the Company developed computer software products.

Until March 31, 2010, TOT-SIBBNS provided exploration services to oil exploration and production companies located in and around Novosibirsk, Russia. TOT-SIBBNS owned and operated four oil-drilling rigs that generated the majority of the revenues of TOT-SIBBNS. TOT-SIBBNS used this equipment for drilling exploratory wells for fees. In addition, TOT-SIBBNS provided engineering services and well remediation services on a contract fee basis.

KORLEA-TOT is the Company’s 51%-owned joint venture with Korlea Invest Holding AG of Switzerland (“Korlea”) who is a provider and trader of electricity in the Czech Republic. Korlea-TOT was expected to assist in the marketing of oil assets sourced by other TOT-Energy companies and contacts. There has been no activity to date with this joint venture but we continue to look for opportunities to develop and implement a profitable plan with our partner, Korlea, which has expertise in energy trading.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the balance sheet date and the reported amounts of expenses for the period presented. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid money market investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less. At March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, the Company had no cash equivalents. The Company maintains its U.S. Dollar-denominated cash in a bank deposit account, the balance of which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. Bank accounts in the United States are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $250,000. At March 31, 2010, and March 31, 2009, the United States bank balances did not exceed the FDIC limit. The Company also maintains bank balances in the Czech Republic and at March 31, 2010, the overseas bank balance was $84,009. At March 31, 2009, the overseas bank balance was $76,656. The non-United States bank balances are not insured and there is risk of loss in the event such banks should fail.

Inventories

Inventories are purchased primarily for the needs of production and used during the normal operating cycle. Items in inventory include fuel, cables, lubricants, construction materials and other miscellaneous items recorded at cost. Costs for freight or other acquisition expenses are charged to operations in the period they are incurred. Inventory is reduced using the average cost by item.
 
Fixed Assets

The Company depreciates its building over a term of 20 years. Machinery and Equipment are depreciated over lives ranging from 3 years to 10 years depending on the equipment. The Company uses lives of three years for office equipment, five years for most pieces of drilling equipment and ten years for our four drills. All of the Company assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis for financial statement purposes.

Foreign Currency Transactions

The Company’s primary operations are conducted outside the United States and we use foreign currencies to operate our consolidated foreign subsidiaries. Quarterly income and expense items are translated into U.S. dollars using the average interbank rate for the period. Assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars using the interbank rate as of the balance sheet date. Equity items are translated at their historical rate. The Company does not engage in any currency hedging activities.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
The Company recognizes revenues from its contract on the completed contract method due to uncertainty in counterparty performance and collections under its terms. Under the completed contract method, revenues and costs are included in operations when the contract is completed. Any losses expected to be incurred are charged to operations in the period that such losses are probable.

Net Loss Per Share

Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is determined using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents, consisting of shares issuable upon exercise of common stock options or warrants. In periods when losses are reported, the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

At March 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had outstanding vested stock options to purchase 750,926 and 412,963 shares of common stock, respectively, and warrants to purchase 49,455,925 and 41,363,168 shares of common stock, respectively. These common stock equivalents have been excluded from the earnings per share calculation because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

 
18

 

At March 31, 2010, the Company had 750,926 exercisable options to purchase common stock. The Company recorded a $33,791 compensation expense related to the vesting of options for the twelve months ended March 31, 2010. There were no new options issued during the twelve months ended March 31, 2010. At March 31, 2009, the Company had 412,963 exercisable options to purchase common stock. The Company recorded a $31,296 compensation expense for these options in fiscal 2009.

During fiscal 2010, the Company issued 16,186,515 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 8,093,757 shares of common stock in exchange for $323,730 pursuant to the terms of its Subscription Agreement with TGR Energy, LLC (see Notes 8, 9 and 11).
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist mainly of cash deposits, short-term payables and borrowings under related party payables. The Company believes that the carrying amounts of third-party financial instruments approximate fair value, due to their short-term maturities.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets may not be recoverable. No impairment losses were recorded during fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2009.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2009 the FASB issued an amendment to ASC 810-10. This amendment requires an enterprise to qualitatively assess the determination of the primary beneficiary of a VIE based on whether the enterprise: (1) has the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly effect the entity’s economic performance; and (2) has the obligation to absorb losses of the entity or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE. ASC 810-10, as amended, requires an ongoing reconsideration of the primary beneficiary, and amends the events that trigger a reassessment of whether an entity is a VIE. This statement is effective as of the beginning of a reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009. Earlier application is prohibited. Retrospective application is optional. Adoption of this standard is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
 
In September 2009 the FASB issued ASU 2009-13, “Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements.” ASU 2009-13 addresses the unit of accounting for multiple-element arrangements. In addition, ASU 2009-13 revises the method by which consideration is allocated among the units of accounting. Specifically, the overall consideration is allocated to each deliverable by establishing a selling price for individual deliverables based on a hierarchy of evidence, involving vendor-specific objective evidence, other third party evidence of the selling price, or the reporting entity’s best estimate of the selling price of individual deliverables in the arrangement. ASU 2009-13 will be effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Adoption of this standard is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

NOTE 2. GOING CONCERN CONSIDERATIONS
 
The Company’s financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company had negative cash flows from continuing operating activities of $747,945 for the year ended March 31, 2010, and had negative working capital of $638,279 at March 31, 2010. The Company remains dependent upon TGR Energy, LLC or Mike Zoi (as a result of his controlling interest in TGR and the Company’s dependence on the Subscription Agreement with TGR) to fund its operations.

 
19

 

Management is continuing its plan to build a diversified portfolio of energy assets, including the development or acquisition of an alternative energy solar business concentrating on commercial solar installations and other energy saving/management offerings. Management believes that its current operating strategy will provides the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern; however, there is no assurance this will occur. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
 
NOTE 3. SEGMENT INFORMATION

Until March 31, 2010, the Company’s sole reportable business segment was the energy services sector. The Company’s accounting policies for segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies.
 
NOTE 4. CONTRACT ACCOUNTING

The Company accounts for its long-term contracts using the completed contract method of revenue recognition due to increasing uncertainties relating to its sole customer’s ability to continue to finance the existing contract to completion. The completed contract method recognizes income only when the contract is substantially complete. Project costs and related revenues are accumulated and are reflected in operations only when an estimated loss is probable. The contract will be deemed complete when our customer agrees that each milestone contained in the contract has been met.
 
NOTE 5. JOINT VENTURES

On July 18, 2008, the Company executed an agreement to acquire a 75% controlling interest in TOT-SIBBNS, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the Russian Federation. Pursuant to the Joint Venture Agreement, the owner (the “JV Partner”) of Sibburnefteservis, Ltd. of Novosibirsk, Russia (“SIBBNS”) contributed certain assets of SIBBNS to TOT SIBBNS in exchange for 3,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The assets were appraised at more than $6 million at the time of contribution and the Company was obligated to issue an additional 2,000,000 shares to the JV Partner if TOT SIBBNS achieved $10,000,000 in cumulative revenues. If on the third anniversary of the joint venture agreement, the Company’s stock price is not at least $1.00 per share, the Company will have the option of making an additional payment to the JV Partner or returning the Company’s interest in the joint venture to the JV Partner.

On or about January 27, 2010, the Company determined to unwind the TOT-SIBBNS joint venture. The Company and TOT-SIBBNS executed an unwind agreement whereby the Company exchanged its 75% interest in TOT-SIBBNS for the 3,000,000 shares given to Evgeny Borograd in 2008. The unwind of the joint venture was consummated as of March 31, 2010. The unwind of the TOT-SIBBNS joint venture has been accounted for using the guidance provided in ASC 845 (previously APB 29), as a disposal “other than by sale” similar to a spin-off transaction, with the shares received reflected as treasury stock and recorded on the Company’s balance sheet at its carrying basis in the net assets of the joint venture as of March 31, 2010.

The Company formed a joint venture, Korlea-TOT Energy s.r.o., in July 2008 with its Czech Republic partner Korlea Invest. The Company invested $56,000 to provide the 51% of share capital that the Company owns for this limited liability company in the Czech Republic. The Company financed this investment through a related party note with Kazo, LLC. The Company issued Alexander Kaplan 350,000 newly issued shares of Company stock for his assistance in completing this transaction.

Under an Exchange Agreement dated December 18, 2007, the Company agreed to issue 113,500,000 newly issued shares of common stock of the Company to TGR Energy, LLC, of which 8,500,000 shares were issued to Bzinfin, S.A., a British Virgin Islands limited corporation that is indirectly owned by an affiliate of the Ener1 Group, and 2,125,000 shares were issued to Alexander Malovik, a principal of Splinex, LLC, in exchange for the Bzinfin and Ener1 Group notes totaling $3,688,132.

On August 7, 2008, the Board of Directors approved a Subscription Agreement dated August 7, 2008 (the “ Subscription Agreement”) with TGR Energy, LLC (“TGR”), wherein TGR committed to invest up to $2,000,000 (the “Investment Amount”) in exchange for up to 100,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock for $0.02 per share. In addition, the Company granted TGR warrants to purchase up to 50,000,000 shares of common stock for $0.05 per share. These warrants may be exercised within five years from the date of grant. The shares and warrants are issuable under the Subscription Agreement upon the funding from time to time by TGR. The valuation date to determine the appropriate compensation charge is the last day of the quarter then ended. On January 12, 2010, TGR agreed to increase the Investment Amount from $2,000,000 to $4,000,000 in exchange for up to an additional 100,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and warrants to purchase up to 50,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.05 per share for a period of five years from date of issuance.

On August 13, 2008, the Board of Directors approved (i) the issuance of fully vested options to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock to Curtis Wolfe for his services as a board member of the Company and (ii) the issuance of options to purchase 1,000,000 shares of common stock to Jonathan New for his services as Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Wolfe abstained from discussion of his option grants. Mr. New’s stock options vest ratably over three years. Both sets of options have a life of 7 years from the date of grant and a strike price of $0.25 per share. Utilizing a Black-Scholes valuation model, at September 30, 2008, the Company recorded compensation expense of $0.10 per share or $10,000 for options granted to Mr. Wolfe and $4,444 for vested options of Mr. New. For the year ended March 31, 2009, the Company recorded compensation expense of $0.10 per share or $21,296 for vested options of Mr. New.
 
On August 25, 2008, in consideration for activities that resulted in the successful joint venture with Korlea-TOT, the Company issued 350,000 shares of restricted TOT-Energy, Inc. common stock to Kaplan Capital, LLC.

On November 1, 2008, the Company entered into a Letter Agreement with Olympus Securities LLC (the “Agreement”). Under the Agreement, Olympus was appointed TOT Energy’s exclusive financial advisor and investment banker (collectively, the “Services”) for a period of seven (7) months. After expiration of this initial term, the Agreement is to automatically continue on a month-to-month basis, with each party having the right to terminate on thirty (30) days notice. The Agreement included a fee of one thousand dollars ($1,000) per month in return for the Services, except for the first month, where, instead of the monthly fee, the Company granted five (5) year warrants to Olympus to purchase one million (1,000,000) shares of the Company's common stock at ten cents ($.10) per share. The warrants were valued at $149,998 and were to be amortized over the seven-month term of the Agreement. The Agreement contains other provisions relating to payments of cash, stock and warrants in connection with any future financing or investment transaction completed through Olympus. The Company has not yet paid a cash fee or provided the abovementioned warrants to Olympus due to the failure by Olympus to provide meaningful investment banking services until world financial markets stabilized and, more recently, due to the unwind of the TOT-SIBBNS joint venture. The Company has amortized the warrant charge of $149,999 during fiscal 2010 and accrued this amount in the financial statements.

Pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement dated November 23, 2009, TGR agreed to sell to Dune Capital Group ("Dune") an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of common stock of TOT Energy, Inc. held by TGR for a purchase price of $0.10 per share or an aggregate of $500,000. The purchase price is required to be paid on or before April 1, 2010. Dune paid $300,000 on November 23, 2009. In order to ensure compliance with obligations under Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, prior to the issuance of shares to Dune by TGR, TGR assigned this Purchase Agreement to the Company. Accordingly, the Company received $300,000 pursuant to this agreement and issued an aggregate of 3,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company to Dune on January 12, 2010.  See Note 13 for additional information relating to the subsequent unwind of this transaction.

For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009, TGR was issued an aggregate of 82,725,335 shares of common stock of the Company and fully vested warrants to purchase 41,362,168 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $0.05 per share pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreement.  These issuances were in exchange for financings under the Subscription Agreement in the aggregate amount of $1,654,507 of which $1,017,097 was cash and $637,410 related to refinancing of previously outstanding notes payable.  A compensation charge of $8,827,218 was recorded for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009. This amount is calculated as the difference between the market price of our common stock at the end of each quarter in which shares were issued and the subscription price of the common shares ($0.02) multiplied by the number of shares issued, plus the Black-Scholes valuation of the warrants issued as calculated at the end of each quarter.

For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, TGR was issued an aggregate of 16,186,515 shares of common stock of the Company and fully vested warrants to purchase 8,093,757 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $0.05 per share pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreement.  These issuances were in exchange for financings under the Subscription Agreement in the aggregate amount of $323,730.  A compensation charge of $4,717,677 was recorded for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010. This amount is calculated as the difference between the market price of our common stock at the end of each quarter in which shares were issued and the subscription price of the common shares ($0.02) multiplied by the number of shares issued, plus the Black-Scholes valuation of the warrants issued as calculated at the end of each quarter.

At March 31, 2010, the Company had options to purchase 1,200,000 shares of common stock outstanding under its stock option plan, of which options to purchase 750,926 shares of common stock are vested, with an exercise price of $0.25 per share and with a remaining weighted average contractual term of 5.69 years. The Company also had warrants to purchase 49,455,925 shares of common stock outstanding at March 31, 2009 with a strike price of $0.05 per share and a remaining contractual term of 3.55 years pursuant to the Subscription Agreement.
 
NOTE 9. STOCK OPTIONS AND STOCK GRANTS

For fiscal 2010, there were no new options issued.  A compensation charge of 33,791 was recorded based on the vesting of previously issued options.

During fiscal 2010, the Company issued 508,889 shares of restricted stock to employees in lieu of cash compensation.  The Company recorded a charge of $63,388, based on the fair value of the shares issued.

Additionally, the Company issued 500,000 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock to American Speed Factory in exchange for an agreement to promote and advertise TOT-Energy in the Ferrari Challenge Racing Series.  The Company recorded a $50,000 promotion expense in Fiscal 2010 to reflect the services provided in exchange for common shares.

For fiscal 2009, options to purchase 1,100,000 shares of common stock were granted under the Company’s stock option plan.  Options to purchase 100,000 shares were granted to a director as compensation as a member of the board of directors and options to purchase 1,000,000 shares were granted to the Chief Financial Officer as part of his incentive compensation.  The options to purchase 1,000,000 shares vest monthly over three years and compensation charges for these shares are amortized over the three year period.  The following table details the charges to income and assumptions used to derive these charges:

NOTE 10. INCOME TAXES

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts of assets and liabilities used for income tax purposes.  At March 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had cumulative federal net operating loss carry forwards (NOL) of approximately $5.5 million and $5.5 million, respectively.  Of these amounts, $0 and approximately $640,000 relates to our Russian subsidiary, TOT-SIBBNS for fiscal 2010 and 2009 respectively.  The Company estimates that 24% is the proper tax rate for the Russian foreign loss and we estimate this loss will expire in 10 years (2019).  The Company has determined that the net operating loss may not be realized and a valuation allowance has been recorded for the full amount of the tax loss carryforward.

Pursuant to Sections 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code, annual use of any of the Company's net operating loss and credit carry forwards will be limited. The tax loss carryforward amounts begin to expire in December 2025.

NOTE 11. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

On August 7, 2008, the Company and TGR, which held 94% of the Company’s outstanding common stock, entered into the Subscription Agreement described above pursuant to which TGR has agreed to provide funding of up to $2,000,000 (the “Investment Amount”) in exchange for up to 100,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and warrants to purchase up to 50,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.05 per share. Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, TGR will fund the Investment Amount as required in the Company’s operational budget. TGR’s obligation to fund the Investment Amount will be reduced by any future third party funding or investments in the Company on terms no less favorable than those contained in the Subscription Agreement. On January 12, 2010, TGR agreed to increase the Investment Amount from $2,000,000 to $4,000,000 in exchange for up to an additional 100,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and warrants to purchase up to 50,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.05 per share for a period of five years from date of issuance.

For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009, TGR was issued an aggregate of 82,725,335 shares of common stock of the Company and fully vested warrants to purchase 41,362,168 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $0.05 per share pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreement.  These issuances were in exchange for financings under the Subscription Agreement in the aggregate amount of $1,654,507 of which $1,017,097 was cash and $637,410 related to refinancing of previously outstanding notes payable.  A compensation charge of $8,827,218 was recorded for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009. This amount is calculated as the difference between the market price of our common stock at the end of each quarter in which shares were issued and the subscription price of the common shares ($0.02) multiplied by the number of shares issued, plus the Black-Scholes valuation of the warrants issued as calculated at the end of each quarter.

For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, TGR was issued an aggregate of 16,186,515 shares of common stock of the Company and fully vested warrants to purchase 8,093,757 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $0.05 per share pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreement.  These issuances were in exchange for financings under the Subscription Agreement in the aggregate amount of $323,730.  A compensation charge of $4,717,677 was recorded for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009. This amount is calculated as the difference between the market price of our common stock at the end of each quarter in which shares were issued and the subscription price of the common shares ($0.02) multiplied by the number of shares issued, plus the Black-Scholes valuation of the warrants issued as calculated at the end of each quarter.

Item 9.   Changes and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

None.
 
Item 9A(T).    Controls and Procedures

Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure . In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

As of March 31, 2010, as a result of the unwind of our TOT-SIBBNS joint venture, we have ceased operations in the oil and gas exploratory drilling business and continue to focus on the development and/or acquisition of a business in the alternative energy field.  Our disclosure controls and procedures are currently not effective because there are a limited number of personnel employed and we cannot have an adequate segregation of duties, and due to material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting as discussed below. Accordingly, management cannot provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Management works to mitigate these risks by being personally involved in all substantive transactions and attempts to obtain verification of transactions and accounting policies and treatments involving our overseas operations. We are in the process of reviewing and, where necessary, modifying controls and procedures throughout the Company. We expect this process to continue through 2011.
 
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). We recognize that because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate.

Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2010.  Our management’s evaluation of our internal control was based on the framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the “COSO Framework”).  Based on this evaluation under the COSO Framework, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of March 31, 2010.

Management is aware of the following material weaknesses (a material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis) in our internal control over financial reporting:
 
26

 
Control Environment

 
·
Inadequate Written Policies and Procedures: Based on our management’s review of key accounting policies and procedures, our management determined that such policies and procedures were inadequate as of March 31, 2010. Management identified certain policies and procedures as inadequate and others as lacking in appropriate documentation. Management is in the process of enhancing existing policies and procedures and preparing formal written documentation as appropriate.

 
·
Segregation of Duties: We did not maintain adequate segregation of duties related to job responsibilities for initiating, authorizing, and recording of certain transactions as of March 31, 2010. Although we believe that we have established appropriate transaction approval criteria, we do not have sufficient personnel to provide an independent review of journal entries, account analyses, monitoring or adequate risk assessment functions. Due to this material weakness, there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement in the financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The Company has attempted to mitigate certain of these risks by enhancing management’s oversight of various procedures for initiating, authorizing, and recording of various transactions and establishing more formal and rigorous written guidelines, policies and procedures. However, additional measures and personnel are required.

 
·
Board of Directors and Audit Committee:  We did not have a functioning audit committee as of March 31, 2010 due to the lack of a sufficient number of independent members on our board of directors and that no member qualifies as a “financial expert” as defined by regulations of the SEC. Our entire board of directors acted in place of an audit committee. However, since we do not have a financial expert on our board, the oversight and monitoring of internal controls and procedures are not effective.
 
Control Activities

 
·
Testing of Internal Controls: We have identified deficiencies in our testing of internal controls within our key business processes, particularly with respect to our overseas operations, which were terminated effective March 31, 2010. This was primarily due to insufficient financial and personnel resources during fiscal 2010.  Management believes there are control procedures that are effective in design and implementation within our key business processes. However, certain of these processes were not formally tested or adequately documented.

Information and Communication

 
·
Timeliness and Adequacy of Financial Reporting Disclosures: Our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's controls were not effective as of March 31, 2010 due to inherent weaknesses present in the preparation of financial statements and related disclosures as a result of the limited financial personnel, information technology infrastructure and other resources. However, management believes that given the size and scope of the Company’s business that all material information was communicated to management within a time-frame that was adequate for management to make informed business and reporting decisions.

 Monitoring

 
·
Internal Control Monitoring: As a result of the lack of financial and personnel resources, management’s ability to monitor the design and operating effectiveness of  internal controls is limited. Accordingly, management’s ability to timely detect, prevent and remediate deficiencies and potential fraud risks is inadequate.
 
Management intends to focus its remediation efforts in the near term on developing additional formal policies and procedures surrounding transaction processing, period-end account analyses and providing for additional review and monitoring procedures and periodically assess the need for additional accounting resources as the business develops and resources permit. Management also intends to formally evaluate and test the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal control over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and is committed to taking further action and implementing enhancements or improvements as resources permit. Additionally, the Company intends to appoint a financial expert and additional independent members to the board of directors as soon as such persons can be identified and incentivized to join the Company.

 
27

 
 
Notwithstanding the material weaknesses discussed above, our management has concluded that the financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Attestation Report of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report.

Other than as described above, there were no changes in internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Currently, there is no one serving on the board who is a “financial expert” or “independent” under the Commission’s standards (Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act) as the Company’s limited financial resources are not adequate to attract and retain qualified candidates.

Committees of the board of directors

In December 2004, our board of directors established a Nominating and Compensation Committee and an Audit Committee.  Currently, there are no members of these committees, which did not meet during fiscal 2010.

Audit Committee

Selecting and hiring our independent auditors.
 
·

Reviewing the design, implementation, adequacy and effectiveness of our internal controls and our critical accounting policies.
 
·
Overseeing and monitoring the integrity of our financial statements and our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements as they relate to financial statements or accounting matters.
 
29

 
 
·
Reviewing with management and our auditors any earnings announcements and other public announcements regarding our results of operations.
 
·
Preparing the audit committee report we are required to include in filings with the Commission.

NONE.
 
Code of Ethics

We have a Code of Ethics that applies to our officers and directors.

Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters.

The table below contains information as of March 31, 2010 about stockholders whom we believe are the beneficial owners of more than five percent (5%) of our outstanding common stock, as well as information regarding stock ownership by our directors and our Chief Executive Officer, our named executive officers, and our directors and named executive officers as a group. Except as described below, we know of no person that beneficially owns more than 5% of our outstanding common stock. As of March 31, 2010 there were 320,778,512 shares of common stock outstanding.  We believe, based on information supplied by the following persons that, except as noted, the persons named in this table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock which they beneficially own. The amount and percentage of common stock beneficially owned are reported on the basis of regulations of the SEC governing the determination of beneficial ownership of securities. Under the rules of the SEC, a person is deemed to be a “beneficial owner” of a security if that person has or shares “voting power,” which includes the power to vote or to direct the voting of such security, or “investment power,” which includes the power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of such security. A person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any securities of which that person has a right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days. The address of each person or entity named in the following table is c/o TOT Energy, Inc., 12100 NE 16th  Avenue, Suite 210, North Miami, FL  33161.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

On December 17, 2007, (1) certain holders, who had received shares in the Company as distributions from Splinex LLC, transferred their ownership of 35,162,334 shares of common stock of the Company to Splinex LLC for nominal consideration, and (2) Bzinfin, S.A., a British Virgin Islands limited corporation that is indirectly owned by an affiliate of Ener1 Group, Inc., a Florida company of which Mike Zoi is a shareholder and director and which is the majority shareholder of Ener1, Inc., and Ener1 Group assigned debt obligations of the Company to Splinex LLC in the amount of $2,805,207 and $845,864, respectively. Under a Purchase Agreement dated December 17, 2007, TGR Capital, LLC (which changed its name to Enerfund, LLC in September 2008), a Florida limited liability company (“Enerfund”), which is wholly-owned by Mike Zoi, acquired all of the membership interests in Splinex LLC, thereby giving Enerfund control of Splinex LLC.

Under an Exchange Agreement dated December 18, 2007, the Company agreed to issue 113,500,000 newly issued shares of the Company to Splinex LLC of which 8,500,000 shares were issued to Bzinfin and 2,125,000 were issued to a former affiliate of Splinex, LLC. Splinex LLC owned 98,157,334 shares of the Company as of December 17, 2007 and an aggregate of 201,032,334 shares after the completion of the Exchange Agreement on December 18, 2007. The Company had 100,757,769 shares outstanding at December 17, 2007 and 214,257,769 shares outstanding after the completion of the Exchange Agreement. In June 2008, Splinex, LLC changed its name to TGR Energy, LLC (“TGR”).

On August 7, 2008, the Company and TGR, which held 94% of the Company’s outstanding common stock, entered into the Subscription Agreement described above pursuant to which TGR has agreed to provide funding of up to $2,000,000 (the “Investment Amount”) in exchange for up to 100,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and warrants to purchase up to 50,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.05 per share. Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, TGR will fund the Investment Amount as required in the Company’s operational budget. TGR’s obligation to fund the Investment Amount will be reduced by any future third party funding or investments in the Company on terms no less favorable than those contained in the Subscription Agreement. On January 12, 2010, TGR agreed to increase the Investment Amount from $2,000,000 to $4,000,000 in exchange for up to an additional 100,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and warrants to purchase up to 50,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.05 per share for a period of five years from date of issuance.

For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009, TGR was issued an aggregate of 82,725,335 shares of common stock of the Company and fully vested warrants to purchase 41,362,168 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $0.05 per share pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreement.  These issuances were in exchange for financings under the Subscription Agreement in the aggregate amount of $1,654,507 of which $1,017,097 was cash and $637,410 related to refinancing of previously outstanding notes payable to a related party.  A compensation charge of $8,827,218 was recorded for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009. This amount is calculated as the difference between the market price of our common stock at the end of each quarter in which shares were issued and the subscription price of the common shares ($0.02) multiplied by the number of shares issued, plus the Black-Scholes valuation of the warrants issued as calculated at the end of each quarter.
 
33

 
For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, TGR was issued an aggregate of 16,186,515 shares of common stock of the Company and fully vested warrants to purchase 8,093,757 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $0.05 per share pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreement.  These issuances were in exchange for financings under the Subscription Agreement in the aggregate amount of $323,730.  A compensation charge of $4,717,677 was recorded for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009. This amount is calculated as the difference between the market price of our common stock at the end of each quarter in which shares were issued and the subscription price of the common shares ($0.02) multiplied by the number of shares issued, plus the Black-Scholes valuation of the warrants issued as calculated at the end of each quarter.

Director Independence

Currently, there is no one serving on the board or any committee thereof who is a “financial expert” or “independent” under the Commission’s standards (Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act) as the Company’s limited financial resources are not adequate to attract and retain qualified candidates. For more information regarding the Board and committees thereof, see “Item 10. Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance” of this Report.
 
Board meetings and committees; annual meeting attendance

During fiscal 2010, the board held seven meetings by telephonic conference or unanimous written consent in lieu of a meeting. During fiscal 2010, Stuart Murdoch attended less then 75% of the telephonic board meetings.

The Company does not have a formal policy regarding attendance by directors at annual meetings of security holders. However, if any board members do attend the annual meeting of security holders, their expenses will be reimbursed.

Shareholder communications

The Company does not have a formal process for shareholders to send communications directly to the board, which given the Company’s financial situation and limited resources, the board deems appropriate at this time.

Item 14.  Principal Accounting Fees and Services

Audit Fees.    The aggregate fees, including expenses, billed by our current principal accountants in connection with the audit of our annual financial statements and review of regulatory filings including the financial statements included in our Annual and Quarterly Reports on Forms 10-K and 10-Q during fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2009 were $51,500 and $113,063, respectively.

Audit Related Fees.  The aggregate fees, including expenses, billed by our current principal accountants for services reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of financial statements not reported under “Audit Fees” above for the years ended March 31, 2010 and fiscal 2009 were $13,750 and $0.

Tax Fees.  The aggregate fees, including expenses, billed by our former and current principal accountants for services rendered for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning during the fiscal years ended March 31, 2010 and fiscal 2009 were $0.

All Other Fees.  The aggregate fees, including expenses, billed for all other services rendered to us by our current principal accountants during the fiscal years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 were $0.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policy

Our Audit Committee’s responsibilities (which in our case is the full Board of Directors) include selecting and hiring our independent auditors and approving the audit and non-audit services to be performed by our independent auditors. The Audit Committee’s policy is that all audit and non-audit services provided by our independent auditor shall be approved before the independent auditor is engaged for the particular services. These services may include audit services and permissible audit-related services, tax services and other services. The Audit Committee may in the future establish pre-approval procedures pursuant to which our independent auditor may provide certain audit and non-audit services to us without first obtaining the Audit Committee's approval. All fees paid to the independent auditors in fiscal 2010 and 2009 were pre-approved by the Audit Committee   (which in our case is the full Board of Directors), and therefore no services were approved after the services were rendered .
