PART I

Item 1. and Item 2. Business and Properties

General

New Frontier Energy, Inc. (“NFEI” or the “Company” or “we” or “us”) is an independent energy company engaged in the exploration, development, acquisition, and production of natural gas and crude oil. The Company’s operations are conducted entirely in the continental United States, principally in the Green River Basin in Colorado and Wyoming and the Denver Julesberg Basin in Colorado.

We were originally organized under the laws of the State of Colorado as Storage Finders.com, Inc. on January 7, 2000. In March 2001, we changed our name to New Frontier Energy, Inc. and commenced operations in the oil and gas industry through the acquisition of all of the outstanding shares of Skyline Resources, Inc. Skyline was operated as our subsidiary through the close of business on February 28, 2005, at which time it was merged into the Company.

Our principal office is located at 1801 Broadway, Suite 920, Denver, Colorado 80202, and our telephone number is (303) 730-9994.

Strategy

Our strategy is to deliver net asset value per share growth to our investors via attractive oil and gas investments. Our focus in meeting the goal of building shareholder value is on the successful execution of exploration for and development of onshore plays in the United States through strategic partnerships. We believe that we will be able to create long-term value for our shareholders by targeting low to medium risk projects that offer repeatable success allowing for meaningful production and reserve growth.

Properties

As of February 28, 2010, we owned interests in approximately 80,902 gross acres (54,433 net) in the Greater Green River Basin and the Denver Julesberg Basin, all of which is classified as undeveloped acreage. There are no proved reserves as of February 28, 2010 and 2009.

The Company owns 65.95% of the limited partnership interests, 79.69% of the General Partnership Interest and 67.32% of the total interest of Slater Dome Gathering, LLLP (“SDG”). SDG owns an 18-mile gas gathering line that transports the Company’s natural gas from the Slater Dome Field (Greater Green River Basin) to the Questar transportation line in Baggs, Wyoming.

Recent Developments and Related Transactions

Greater Green River Basin

On August 10, 2009, the Company entered into a Participation Agreement (the “Participation Agreement”) with Entek GRB LLC (“Entek”) under which Entek agreed to purchase certain assets of the Company for $1.0 million and spend up to an additional $11.5 million over three years on exploration and development within approximately 66,000 gross acres (the “Underlying Leases”) to earn up to 55% of the Company’s interest in the Underlying Leases and certain of its other assets, including its partnership interests in SDG (collectively the “Assets”). The Company and Entek also created an area of mutual interest (the “Area of Mutual Interest”) in all lands located in Routt County, Colorado, Moffatt County, Colorado, Sweetwater County, Wyoming, and Carbon County Wyoming. Pursuant to the Area of Mutual Interest, Entek shall be entitled to participate for up to 55% in any additional interest acquired within the Area of Mutual Interest by the Company and the Company shall be entitled to participate for up to 45% in any additional interest acquired within the Area of Mutual Interest.

Pursuant to the Participation Agreement, Entek has the right to participate in the exploration and development of the Underlying Leases, and the right to earn assignments of interests in the Assets in three phases. On August 10, 2009, Entek irrevocably committed to expend $3.0 million (the “Phase 1 Funds”) to earn 16.25% (the “Phase 1 Interests”) of the Company’s interest in the Assets. Between the first anniversary date and the second anniversary date of the Participation Agreement, Entek has the right but not the obligation to expend $4.0 million (the “Phase 2 Funds”) and earn an additional 16.25% (the “Phase 2 Interests”) of the Company’s interest in the Assets. Between the second anniversary date and the third anniversary date of the Participation Agreement, Entek has the right but not the obligation to expend approximately $4.5 million (the “Phase 3 Funds”) and earn an additional 18.4375% (the “Phase 3 Interests”) of the Company’s interest in the Assets. If during any Phase, Entek fails to expend an amount equal to or greater than the threshold amount for the respective Phase period, then Entek shall have the right, but not the obligation, within 10 days after the end of the Phase period to deposit the difference between the Phase threshold amount and the amount expended into a segregated account in order to earn the full interest in the Phase. The amounts deposited into the segregated account shall be expended in the following work program.

Entek will have the right to become the operator after the completion of Phase 1 and the commencement of Phase 2, subject to certain regulatory and other approvals.

Two wells targeting the Niobrara Chalk formation were drilled in November and December 2009 on the Underlying Leases, and a third well targeting the Niobrara Chalk formation was drilled in July 2010. NFEI’s participation in the third well is a subject of dispute between NFEI and Entek. NFEI is currently negotiating with Entek to resolve this dispute.

As of February 28, 2010, Entek had completed its obligation for Phase I and has earned in aggregate a 20.3125% interest of the Company’s interest in the Assets. In accordance with the terms of the Participation Agreement, Entek took over as the operator of the Slater Dome Field and the Focus Ranch Unit on May 1, 2010. On September 22, 2010, Entek informed NFEI that it had completed its obligations under Phase II. NFEI disputes this assertion and is negotiating with Entek to resolve this dispute.

Denver Julesberg Basin

On June 4, 2010, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement with Carrizo Oil & Gas, Inc. (“Carrizo”) to sell its interest in certain oil and gas leases (the “Leases”) in the Denver Julesburg Basin (“DJ Basin”) in Weld and Morgan Counties, Colorado. (Please see “Our Oil and Gas Operations” below for more details)

Series C Convertible Preferred Stock

Effective December 1, 2009, the 216,000 outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock converted into an aggregate 34,099,265 shares of common stock pursuant to the automatic conversion provisions of the Series C Preferred Stock. As of October 20, 2010, for technical reasons, 78,864 shares out of the 34,099,265 have not yet been issued.

Our Oil and Gas Operations

Greater Green River Basin

The Company’s acreage in the Greater Green River Basin is primarily made up of the Slater Dome Field and the Focus Ranch Unit. The Slater Dome Field is comprised of 32,620 gross acres (17,766 net acres) and the Focus Ranch Unit consists of 33,242 gross acres (25,227 net acres) adjacent to and southeast of the Slater Dome Field in northwest Colorado. The Company has an approximately 53.125% working interest in the Slater Dome Field and an approximately 79.6875% working interest in the Focus Ranch Unit.

Historically, the primary drilling objective has been natural gas in the lower Iles coal-bearing formation of the Mesa Verde Group at depths ranging from 700 to 3,200 feet, along with a secondary objective consisting of a group of sands (the Deep Creek Sands) that exist between the base of the Iles formation and the top of the Mancos shale. The Company has shifted its focus and the main drilling objective now is for oil in the Niobrara Chalk, Carlile Shale and Frontier Sandstone Formations at depths ranging from 7,000 to 9,000 feet.

In November 2009, we began a two well drilling program targeting the Niobrara formation, successfully drilling the Robidoux 13-15T and the Battle Mountain 14-15 to the targeted depths. In July 2010, the Butter Lake 32-10 well was drilled in the Focus Ranch Unit to its targeted depth. The Robidoux 13-15T well is shut in. The Battle Mountain 14-15 and Butter Lake 32-10 wells are in production and are producing marginal flow rates of oil and gas. We have not received reliable reporting from Entek, the operator, as to the exact production rates, if any, for these two wells and we have not recovered any proved reserves from these wells.

During the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, Green River Basin assets produced 112,836 Mcf of gas, of which 24,948 Mcf was used in operations and 87,888 Mcf was delivered. During the fiscal year ended February 28, 2009, the Slater Dome Field produced 229,629 Mcf of gas, of which 38,939 Mcf was used in operations and 190,690 Mcf was delivered.

As of February 28, 2010 and 2009, there were no recoverable reserves from our wells in the Greater Green River Basin based upon the existing price of natural gas and the costs required to drill new wells and conduct operations.

Denver Julesberg Basin

Commencing in the fall of 2007 through the fall of 2008 we acquired leases for approximately $577,600 in the Denver Julesberg Basin located in Northeast Colorado from approximately 35 interest owners. During the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, we owned 100% of the working interest in 15,040 gross acres and 11,440 net acres and were the operator.

On June 4, 2010, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement with Carrizo Oil & Gas, Inc. (“Carrizo”) to sell its interest in certain leases (“Leases”) in the DJ Basin. The Company received proceeds of approximately $5.0 million (net of related deal expenses) from the sale of the interest in the Leases.

Pursuant to the Purchase and Sale Agreement, Carrizo must drill not less than three Carry Wells (as defined in the Purchase and Sale Agreement) in the 18 months following the closing (the “Drilling Period”) on the sale of the interest in the Leases and carry the Company for a 33 1/3% working interest in each of these wells (subject to adjustment as provided in the Purchase and Sale Agreement). In the event that Carrizo fails to commence the drilling of the three Carry Wells during the Drilling Period, the Leases (except for a 640 acre tract) shall be reassigned back to the Company.

Pursuant to the Purchase and Sale Agreement, if Carrizo commences drilling three Carry Wells before the end of the Drilling Period, the Company has the option to re-acquire an undivided 1/3 working interest in the Leases. To reacquire the 1/3 working interest in the Leases, the Company shall pay 1/3 of to the total amount Carrizo paid to the Company to acquire the interest in the Leases plus 1/3 of any amount Carrizo has paid to renew, extend or replace the Leases during the Drilling Period.

In connection with the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Company and Carrizo also entered into an AMI Agreement whereby the Company and Carrizo agreed to create an area of mutual interest in all governmental sections within which the Company owns Leases as of June 4, 2010 (subject to certain exclusions) (the “AMI Territory”). Pursuant to the AMI Agreement, the Company and Carrizo granted the other party the option acquire its proportionate interest, (33 1/3 in the case of the Company and 66 2/3 in the case of Carrizo) in any oil and gas leases and other interests in the AMI Territory.

There have been no wells drilled within this area and there are no proved reserves at February 28, 2010 and 2009.

Our Other Properties

On or about January 30, 2010, we moved our corporate office from Littleton, Colorado and entered into a three year lease for approximately 2,192 square feet of office space located at 1801 Broadway, Suite 920, Denver, Colorado 80202. The lease payments for the Denver office is approximately $1,222 per month for months 1-12 under the Lease, $1,313 per month for months 13-24 under the Lease and $1,404 per month for months 25-36 under the Lease in addition to our share of the building’s operating costs and expenses.

On June 15, 2007, the Company acquired real property in Steamboat Springs, CO (the “Steamboat Property”). The purchase price for the Steamboat Property was $1,175,000. In connection with the purchase of the Steamboat Property, the Company entered into a five-year mortgage in the principal amount of $881,250 (the “Steamboat Mortgage”), which had an interest rate of 7.56% per annum. The Steamboat Mortgage required equal monthly payments during the term of the mortgage in the amount of $8,256, with the balance of $698,604 due on June 14, 2012. The Steamboat Mortgage terms were modified on February 26, 2009, whereby the maturity date was changed to September 1, 2009.

Effective July 7, 2009, the Company transferred legal title to the Steamboat Property to the Company’s former President and CEO, as nominee, to facilitate the refinancing of the Steamboat Property. On July 7, 2009, the former President and CEO, as nominee for the Company, entered into a new mortgage in the amount of $635,000 (the “New Steamboat Mortgage”). The Company retained equitable ownership of the Steamboat Property and the accompanying financial statements reflect the rights and responsibilities of ownership, including the obligation under the New Steamboat Mortgage described in the next paragraph.

The New Steamboat Mortgage has a one year term, due July 6, 2010, and bears interest at the rate of prime plus 400 basis points with a floor of 10% and is collateralized by the Steamboat Property. As a condition of the New Steamboat Mortgage, interest in the amount of $63,500 has been prepaid. The Company has the option to prepay the New Steamboat Mortgage in full, or in part, without penalty. Should the Company prepay the New Steamboat Mortgage, the unamortized prepaid interest will be returned to the Company. At February 28, 2010, the balance of the New Steamboat Mortgage was $635,000.

In June 2010, the Company executed a Quit Claim Deed with the former President and CEO to transfer the legal title to the Steamboat Property back to the Company. The Company also paid off the remaining outstanding balance on the Steamboat Mortgage of $633,962 ($1,058 of prepaid interest was refunded and credited against the principal balance of $635,000).

Oil and Gas Data

Proved Reserves

At February 28, 2010 and 2009, we internally analyzed our reserves and based upon the existing price of natural gas and the costs required to drill new wells and conduct operations, we determined that there were no recoverable reserves from the wells in the Greater Green River Basin at February 28, 2010 and 2009.

Productive Wells

The following table sets forth information relating to the productive wells in which we owned a working interest as of February 28, 2010. Productive wells are wells that are currently producing or are found to be capable of producing hydrocarbons in sufficient quantities such that proceeds from the sale of the production exceed production expenses and taxes, including gas wells awaiting pipeline connections to commence deliveries. Gross wells are the total number of producing wells in which we have an interest, and net wells are the sum of our factional working interests owned in gross wells.

Market for Oil and Gas and Major Customers

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 capacity of the gas transportation 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.

Effective August 1, 2007, we entered into an agreement with an independent third party whereby they would market the gas produced from the Slater Dome Field. During the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, sales to two unaffiliated customers were 91% of sales and 9% of sales. During the fiscal year ended February 28, 2009, sales to two unaffiliated customers were 90% and 10% of sales.

Based on the current demand for natural gas and oil, and the availability of other purchasers, we believe that the Company is not dependent upon either of these customers and the loss of the major customer of our gas would not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

Seasonality

Generally, but not always, the demand for natural gas decreases during the summer months and increases during the winter months. Pipelines, utilities, local distribution companies and industrial users utilize natural gas storage facilities and purchase some of their anticipated winter requirements during the summer, which can lessen seasonal demand fluctuations.

Seasonal weather conditions, hunting seasons and wildlife restrictions limit our drilling and producing activities and other oil and natural gas operations. These seasonal anomalies can limit our ability to conduct our proposed operations and can increase competition for equipment, supplies and personnel during the spring and summer months, which could lead to shortages and increase costs or delay our operations.

Competition

The oil and natural gas industry is intensely competitive. Our competition includes major natural resource companies that operate globally, as well as independent operators located throughout the world, including North America. Most of these companies have greater financial resources than we do. These companies may be able to pay more for productive oil and natural gas properties and exploratory prospects or to 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 or integrated competitors may be able to absorb the burden of existing, and any changes to, federal, state, and local regulations more easily than we can, which would adversely affect our competitive position. We also face intense competition in obtaining capital for drilling and acquisitions and are at a competitive disadvantage compared with larger companies, which may have a material adverse effect upon the results of operations of the Company. 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.

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 drilling permits, 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 the company. The regulatory burden on the oil and gas industry increases the cost of doing business in the industry and consequently affects profitability. We are also subject to changing and extensive tax laws, the effects of which cannot be predicted. Further, SDG is subject to the jurisdiction of various federal, state and local agencies.

Oil & Gas Regulation

The governmental laws and regulations which could have a material impact on the oil and gas exploration and production industry are as follows.

Drilling and Production

Our operations are subject to various types of regulation at federal, state and local levels. These types of regulation include requiring permits for the drilling of wells, drilling bonds and reports concerning operations. Most states, and some counties and municipalities in which we operate, also regulate one or more of the following:

·	The location of wells;

·	The method of drilling and casing wells;

·	The rates of production or “allowables”;

·	The surface use and restoration of properties upon which wells are drilled;

·	The plugging and abandoning of wells; and

·	Notice to surface owners and other third parties.

State laws regulate the size and shape of drilling and spacing units, or proration units, governing the pooling of oil and natural gas properties. Some states allow forced pooling or integration of tracts to facilitate exploration, while other states rely on voluntary pooling of lands and leases. In some instances, forced pooling or unitization may be implemented by third parties and may reduce our interest in the unitized properties. In addition, state conservation laws establish maximum rates of production from oil and natural gas wells, generally prohibit the venting or flaring of natural gas and impose requirements regarding the ratability of production. These laws and regulations may limit the amount of natural gas and oil we can produce from our wells or limit the number of wells or the locations at which we can drill. Moreover, each state generally imposes a production or severance tax with respect to the production and sale of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids within its jurisdiction.

Natural Gas Sales Transportation

Historically, federal legislation and regulatory controls have affected the price of the natural gas we produce and the manner in which we market our production. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”) has jurisdiction over the transportation and sale for resale of natural gas in interstate commerce by natural gas companies under the Natural Gas Act of 1938 and the Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978.

FERC also regulates interstate natural gas transportation rates and service conditions, which affects the marketing of natural gas that we produce, as well as the revenues we receive for sales of our natural gas. Commencing in 1985, FERC promulgated a series of orders, regulations and rule-makings that significantly fostered competition in the business of transporting and marketing gas. Today, interstate pipeline companies are required to provide nondiscriminatory transportation services to producers, marketers and other shippers, regardless of whether such shippers are affiliated with an interstate pipeline company. Under FERC's current regulatory regime, transmission services must be provided on an open-access, non-discriminatory, basis at cost-based rates or at market-based rates if the transportation market at issue is sufficiently competitive.

Mineral Act

The Mineral Leasing Act of 1920 (“Mineral Act”) prohibits direct or indirect ownership of any interest in federal onshore oil and gas leases by a foreign citizen of a country that denies “similar or like privileges” to citizens of the United States. Such restrictions on citizens of a “non-reciprocal” country include ownership or holding or controlling stock in a corporation that holds a federal onshore oil and gas lease. If this restriction is violated, the corporation's lease can be canceled in a proceeding instituted by the United States Attorney General. Although the regulations of the Bureau of Land Management (which administers the Mineral Act) provide for agency designations of non-reciprocal countries, there are presently no such designations in effect.

Environmental Regulation

Our activities are subject to existing federal, state and local laws and regulations governing environmental quality and pollution control. Our operations are also subject to stringent environmental regulation by state and federal authorities, including the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”). Such regulation can increase the cost of such activities. In most instances, the regulatory requirements relate to water and air pollution control measures.

Waste Disposal

The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (“RCRA”) and comparable state statutes affect oil and gas exploration and production activities by imposing regulations on the generation, transportation, treatment, storage, disposal and cleanup of “hazardous wastes” and on the disposal of non-hazardous wastes. Under the auspices of the EPA, the individual states administer some or all of the provisions of RCRA, sometimes in conjunction with their own, more stringent, requirements. Drilling fluids, produced waters and most of the other wastes associated with the exploration, development and production of crude oil, natural gas or geothermal energy constitute “solid wastes,” which are regulated under the less-stringent non-hazardous waste provisions, but there is no guarantee that the EPA or the individual states will not adopt more stringent requirements for the handling of non-hazardous wastes or categorize some non-hazardous wastes as hazardous for future regulation.

CERCLA

The federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”) imposes joint and several liability for costs of investigation and remediation and for natural resource damages, without regard to fault or the legality of the original conduct, on certain classes of persons with respect to the release into the environment of substances designated under CERCLA as hazardous substances (“Hazardous Substances”). These classes of persons or potentially responsible parties include the current and certain past owners and operators of a facility or property where there is or has been a release or threat of release of a Hazardous Substance and persons who disposed of or arranged for the disposal of the Hazardous Substances found at such a facility. CERCLA also authorizes the EPA and, in some cases, third parties to take actions in response to threats to the public health or the environment and to seek to recover the costs of such action. Although CERCLA generally exempts petroleum from the definition of Hazardous Substances in the course of operations, we may in the future generate wastes that fall within CERCLA's definition of Hazardous Substances. We may also in the future become an owner of facilities or properties on which Hazardous Substances have been released by previous owners or operators. We may in the future be responsible under CERCLA for all or part of the costs to clean up facilities or property at which such substances have been released and for natural resource damages.

Air Emissions

Our operations are subject to the Federal Clean Air Act, and associated state laws and regulations, regulate emissions of various air pollutants through the issuance of permits and the imposition of other requirements. In addition, EPA has developed, and continues to develop, stringent regulations governing emissions of toxic air pollutants at specified sources. Major sources of air pollutants are subject to more stringent, federally imposed permitting requirements. Administrative enforcement actions for failure to comply strictly with air pollution regulations or permits are generally resolved by payment of monetary fines and correction of any identified deficiencies. Alternatively, regulatory agencies could require us to forego construction, modification or operation of certain air emission sources.

Clean Water Act

The Clean Water Act (“CWA”) imposes restrictions and strict controls regarding the discharge of wastes, including produced waters and other oil and natural gas wastes, into waters of the United States, a term broadly defined. Permits must be obtained to discharge pollutants into federal waters. The CWA provides for civil, criminal and administrative penalties for unauthorized discharges of oil, hazardous substances and other pollutants. It imposes substantial potential liability for the costs of removal or remediation associated with discharges of oil or hazardous substances. State laws governing discharges to water also provide varying civil, criminal and administrative penalties and impose liabilities in the case of a discharge of petroleum or its derivatives, or other hazardous substances, into state waters. In addition, the EPA has promulgated regulations that may require us to obtain permits to discharge storm water runoff. In the event of an unauthorized discharge of wastes, we may be liable for penalties and costs.

We believe that we are in substantial compliance with current applicable environmental laws and regulations.

As the operator of the Slater Dome Field and the Focus Ranch Unit, Entek is responsible for obtaining all permits and government permission necessary to operate these properties and permits to drill wells. Carrizo, as the operator of the DJ Basin, is responsible for obtaining all permits and government permission necessary to operate these properties and permits to drill wells. The Company, as the General Partner of SDG is responsible for maintaining easements or other arrangements with owners of the land over which the Gas Gathering Pipeline is built, as well as operating and maintaining the Gas Gathering Pipeline.

Research and Development Activities

No research and development expenditures have been incurred, either on our account or sponsored by customers, during the past two years.

Employees

We currently have two employees. Our executive officers devote such time, as each officer deems necessary to perform his duties to the Company and are subject to conflicts of interest. None of our employees are subject to a collective bargaining agreement, and we consider our relations with our employees to be excellent.

From time to time, we use the services of clerical and accounting personnel on a part-time basis and the services of executives, geologists, engineers, landmen and other professionals on a contract basis as may be necessary for our oil and gas operations.

Available Information

We do not have a website. We make available, free of charge, all filings with the SEC and all press releases. Requests should be sent by mail to our corporate secretary at our principal office at 1801 Broadway, Suite 920, Denver, Colorado 80202. This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains information provided by other sources that we believe are reliable. We cannot assure you that the information obtained from other sources is accurate or complete.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Investing in our securities involves risk. In evaluating the Company, careful consideration should be given to the following risk factors, in addition to the other information included or incorporated by reference in this annual report. Each of these risk factors could materially adversely affect our business, operating results or financial condition, as well as adversely affect the value of an investment in our common or preferred stock. In addition, the “Forward-Looking Statements’’ located in this Form 10-K, and the forward-looking statements included or incorporated by reference herein describe additional uncertainties associated with our business.

Risks Related To Our Business

We have a limited operating history.

We were formally organized in January 2000 and did not commence operation in the oil and gas industry until February 2001. We began producing gas in June 2005 but have had a limited history of producing oil and gas. As a result, there is a limited history of production or generating revenue against which to compare our revenues during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010.

We are substantially dependent upon the Slater Dome Field and the Focus Ranch Unit, which causes our risk to be concentrated.

Our plan of operation includes efforts to develop the Slater Dome Field and the Focus Ranch Unit pursuant to the Participation Agreement with Entek. If the development of these properties are not successful, we may be forced to seek additional opportunities. Substantially all of our current capital investment has been spent on the development of the Slater Dome Field. If we are unable to develop the Slater Dome Field and the Focus Ranch Unit, assuming we have sufficient capital resources, we will be forced to seek additional investments. Investigating and locating suitable properties for acquisition is expensive and time-consuming. Even if we are successful in identifying one or more additional properties for acquisition, there is no assurance that we can obtain such properties at reasonable prices or that we will have sufficient capital to finance the acquisitions and development of these properties. As a result of our dependence on a limited number of properties, we may be disproportionately exposed to the impact of delays or interruptions of production from these wells or increased expenses caused by significant governmental regulation, transportation capacity constraints, the availability and capacity of compression and gas processing facilities, curtailment of production or interruption of transportation of natural gas produced from the Slater Dome Field and the Focus Ranch Unit. Our substantial dependence on a limited number of properties for cash flow increases the risk of our future success.

We have incurred losses from operations and negative cash flow that is likely to continue until we can economically produce oil or natural gas.

We have a history of losses from operations and negative cash flow that is likely to continue until we economically produce oil or natural gas. A significant portion of our cash flow since inception has come from equity and debt investments. Unless we economically produce oil and gas in the future, these losses will continue. If we continue to experience losses from operations and negative cash flow as we have in the past, there can be no assurance that we will be able to continue operations as anticipated, if at all. Further, the price of our common stock may be adversely affected.

We have not obtained an independent reserve report of oil and gas reserves for the fiscal years ended February 28, 2010 and 2009.

We internally analyzed our reserves and based upon the existing price of natural gas and the costs required to drill new wells or conduct operations, we determined that at February 28, 2010 and 2009, there were no recoverable reserves from our wells in the Greater Green River Basin. We did not obtain an independent reserve report at February 28, 2010 or 2009. As such, there is no way to determine the financial viability of our properties or the amount of oil and gas that may be recoverable. Investors in the Company’s securities must be willing to accept the risk that the Company does not have available for review a reserve report that may provide an indication of the amount of oil and gas that may be recoverable from our properties.

Continued poor economic conditions could negatively impact our business.

Our operations are affected by local, national and worldwide economic conditions. The consequences of a potential or prolonged recession may include a lower level of economic activity, reduced demand for oil and gas products and uncertainty regarding energy prices and the capital and commodity markets. A lower level of economic activity might result in a decline in energy consumption, which may adversely affect our revenues and future growth. Instability in the financial markets, as a result of recession, poor economic conditions or otherwise, also may affect the cost of capital and our ability to raise capital.

Prospects that we acquire may not yield natural gas or oil in commercially viable quantities.

We describe some of our current prospects and our plans to explore those prospects in this Annual Report. See “Business.” Further, we intend to be active in the acquisition of additional prospects and properties in the future. A prospect is a property on which we have identified what we believe, based on available seismic and geological or other information, to contain natural gas or oil. However, the use of seismic data and other technologies 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 to recover drilling or completion costs or to be economically viable. If we drill wells that we identify as dry holes in our current and future prospects, our drilling success rate may decline and materially harm our business. In sum, the cost of drilling, completing and operating any well is often uncertain and new wells may not be productive or contain sufficient quantities of natural gas or oil to be economic.

We are dependent upon the operation of SDG’s Gas Gathering Pipeline to transport our natural gas from the Slater Dome Field to a Questar transportation line in Baggs, Wyoming.

We are entirely dependent upon the operation of SDG’s Gas Gathering Pipeline to transport gas produced at the Slater Dome Field to the Questar transportation line. Further, any wells at the Focus Ranch Unit will also be depended upon the Gas Gathering Pipeline when they are connected. If the Gas Gathering Pipeline was not available for any reason to transport gas produced at the Slater Dome Field, and the Focus Ranch Unit in the future, it would have an immediate direct and material adverse effect upon the Company and our results from operations.

We are dependent upon transportation and storage services provided by third parties.

In addition to our dependence on the Gas Gathering Pipeline, we are dependent on the transportation and storage services offered by various interstate and intrastate pipeline companies for the marketing of, 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 FERC or state regulatory agencies. An inability to obtain transportation and/or storage services at competitive rates can hinder our processing and marketing operations and/or affect our sales margins, which would have a material adverse effect upon our results from operations.

We may be required to take write-downs of the carrying values of our oil and natural gas properties and the Gas Gathering Pipeline.

During the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010 and 2009, we incurred impairment of our oil and gas properties in the amount of $7.0 million and $7.5 million, respectively. Accounting rules require that we review periodically the carrying value of our oil and natural gas properties and the Gas Gathering Pipeline for possible impairment. Based on specific market factors and circumstances at the time of the prospective impairment reviews, and the continuing evaluation of development plans, production data, rate of flow of gas through the pipeline, economics and other factors, we may be required to write down the carrying value of our oil and natural gas properties or the Gas Gathering Pipeline. A write-down constitutes a non-cash charge to earnings. We may incur further impairment charges in the future, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations in the periods taken.

Drilling for and producing natural gas is governed by a number of federal, state and local laws and regulations, including environmental regulations, which are beyond our control.

Many aspects of gathering, processing, marketing and transportation of natural gas are subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations, which can have a significant impact upon overall operations. Both transportation and storage of natural gas by interstate pipelines and the rates charged for such services are subject to the jurisdiction of FERC or state regulatory agencies. The construction and operation of gathering lines, plants and other facilities are subject to environmental laws and regulations that could affect the financial position or results of operations and may be subject to FERC.

Our coalbed methane exploration and production activities does and will result in the discharge of large volumes of produced groundwater into adjacent lands and waterways. The ratio of methane gas to produced water varies over the life of the well. The environmental soundness of discharging produced groundwater pursuant to water discharge permits has come under increased scrutiny. Moratoriums on the issuance of additional water discharge permits or more costly methods of handling these produced waters, may affect future well development. Compliance with more stringent laws or regulations, more vigorous enforcement policies of the regulatory agencies, difficulties in negotiating required surface use agreements with land owners or receiving other governmental approvals could delay our exploration and production activities in the Slater Dome Field, the Focus Ranch Unit and in our other prospects and/or require us to make material expenditures for the installation and operation of systems and equipment for pollution control and/or remediation, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

Recent Colorado regulatory changes could limit our Colorado operations and adversely affect our cost of doing business.

Our future operations and cost of doing business in Colorado may be affected by changes in regulations and the ability to obtain drilling permits. Our properties located in Colorado are subject to the authority of the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (“COGCC”). The COGCC recently approved new rules governing oil and gas activity. The costs of these and the other proposed rules could add substantial increases in incremental well costs in our Colorado operations. The rules could also impact the ability and extend the time necessary to obtain drilling permits, which creates substantial uncertainty about our ability to meet future drilling plans and thus production and capital expenditure targets, which may have a material adverse effect upon the Company and its results of operations.

All of our producing properties are currently located in Colorado and Wyoming, making us vulnerable to risks associated with operating in one major geographic area.

Our operations have been focused in Colorado and Wyoming, which means our current producing properties are currently geographically concentrated in that area. Because our operations are not diversified geographically, the success of our operations and our profitability may be disproportionately exposed to the effect of any regional events, including fluctuations in prices of natural gas and oil produced from the wells in the Colorado and Wyoming area, natural disasters, restrictive governmental regulations, transportation capacity constraints, weather, curtailment of production or interruption of transportation, and any resulting delays or interruptions of production from existing or planned new wells.

Properties that we buy may not produce as projected and we may be unable to determine reserve potential, 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 properties. 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. However, even 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. Inspections may not always be performed on every well or property, and environmental problems, such as ground water contamination, are not necessarily observable even when an inspection is undertaken. Even when problems are identified, we often assume certain environmental and other risks and liabilities in connection with acquired properties. Any losses incurred as a result could have a material adverse effect upon the Company and its results of operations.

Our drilling activities and prices received from the sale of oil and gas may be impacted adversely by new taxes.

The federal, state and local governments in which we operate impose taxes on the oil and gas products we sell and may impose taxes on our drilling activities. Recently, there has been a significant amount of discussion by legislators concerning a variety of energy tax proposals. In addition, many states have raised state taxes on energy sources and additional increases may occur. Any significant increase in taxes on our oil and gas products or operations may have a material adverse effect upon our drilling activities, oil and natural gas prices and our results from operations.

We are currently negotiating with Entek, who we rely on to operate the Slater Dome Field and the Focus Ranch Unit, to resolve several material disputes with regard to certain terms of the Participation Agreement..

Effective May 1, 2010, pursuant to the Participation Agreement, we assigned the operator status of our Slater Dome Field and Focus Ranch Unit to Entek. Decisions by Entek may affect our capital requirements and subject us to financial penalties for failure to comply. As the operator of these properties, Entek has control over the management of operations and makes decisions regarding expenditures on these properties. Currently, we have several material disputes with Entek with regards to the interpretation and implementation of the terms of the Participation Agreement. We are currently negotiating with Entek to resolve these disputes. There can be no assurance that these negotiations will be successful.

We share responsibility with Entek for all permits necessary for the Gas Gathering Pipeline.

The Company, along with Entek, as a General Partner of SDG, is responsible for maintaining easements or other arrangements with owners of the land over which the Gas Gathering Pipeline is built, as well as operating and maintaining the Gas Gathering Pipeline. While we do not expect that such permits or other regulations will be a material impediment to the operation of our business, there can be no assurance that we will obtain the necessary permits and easements. The failure to do so could have a material adverse effect upon our operations and financial condition.

Our results of operations are dependent upon market prices for oil and natural gas, which fluctuate widely and are beyond our control.

Our operations are affected by future oil and natural gas prices that fluctuate widely, and low prices could have a material adverse effect on our operations. Our success is dependent largely on the prices received for natural gas and oil production. Prices received also affect the amount of future cash flow available for capital expenditures and may affect the 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. Further, it could affect the amount of natural gas that is transported through the Gas Gathering Pipeline owned by SDG. Further, prices for natural gas and oil fluctuate widely.

Factors that can cause price fluctuations include, but are not limited to:

·	The level of consumer product demand;

·	Weather conditions;

·	Domestic and foreign governmental regulations;

·	The price and availability of alternative fuels;

·	Political conditions in natural gas and oil-producing regions;

·	The domestic and foreign supply of natural gas and oil;

·	The price of foreign imports; and

·	Overall 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 capacity of gas transportation 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, each of which could have a material adverse effect upon our results of operations.

The oil and gas industry in which we operate involves many operating risks that can cause substantial losses.

Drilling and production of oil and natural gas involves a variety of operating risks, including but not limited to:

Fires;

·	Explosions;

·	Blow-outs and surface cratering;

·	Uncontrollable flows of underground natural gas, oil or formation water;

·	Natural disasters;

·	Pipe and cement failures;

·	Casing collapses;

·	Embedded oilfield drilling and service tools;

·	Abnormal pressure and geological formations;

·	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:

·	Injury or loss of life;

·	Severe damage to and destruction of property, natural resources or equipment;

·	Pollution and other environmental damage;

·	Clean-up responsibilities;

·	Regulatory investigation and penalties;

·	Suspension of our operations; and

·	Repairs necessary to resume operations.

Further, the occurrence of any of these events may impact third parties, including our employees or employees of our contractors, and lead to injury or death or property damage. 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. Further, for some risks, we may not be able to obtain insurance or may choose not to if we believe the cost of available insurance is excessive relative to the risks presented. In addition, pollution and environmental risks generally are not fully insurable. If a significant accident or other event occurs and is not fully covered by insurance, it could adversely affect operations. Moreover, we cannot provide assurance that we will be able to maintain adequate insurance in the future at rates considered reasonable.

Any of these risks can cause substantial losses, including personal injury or loss of life, damage to or destruction of property, natural resources and equipment, pollution, environmental contamination or loss of wells and other regulatory penalties.

Seasonal weather conditions and other factors adversely affect our ability to conduct drilling activities and other operations at the Slater Dome Field and the Focus Ranch Unit.

Oil and natural gas operations in the Rocky Mountains are adversely affected by seasonal weather conditions, and hunting and wildlife restrictions on our leases at the Slater Dome Field and the Focus Ranch Unit. In the Slater Dome Field and the Focus Ranch Unit, certain drilling and other oil and natural gas activities can only be conducted during limited times of the year, typically during the summer months. This limits our ability to operate in this area and can intensify competition during those times for drilling rigs, oil field equipment, services, supplies and qualified personnel, which may lead to periodic shortages. These constraints and the resulting shortages or high costs could delay our operations and materially increase our operating and capital costs, which could have a material adverse effect upon the Company and its results of operations.

There can be no assurance that any of our wells will become profitable.

Our wells 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 wells or if the price of natural gas remains low. The production of coal bed methane gas requires dewatering for the coal gas to be extracted, which results in water being produced in large volumes, especially in the early stages of production. Our ability to remove and economically dispose of sufficient quantities of water from the coal seam will determine whether or not we can produce coalbed methane gas in commercial economic quantities. In addition, production from any well may be unmarketable if it is contaminated with water or other deleterious substances. The failure of our wells as a result of these or other events that impair the production of gas will have a material adverse effect upon our results of operations.

Most of our competitors have greater resources than we have, and we may not have the resources necessary to successfully compete with them.

Competition in the oil and gas industry is intense. Our competitors include major oil companies and other independent operators, most of which have financial resources, staffs and facilities substantially greater than ours. We also face intense competition in obtaining capital for drilling and acquisitions and are at a competitive disadvantage compared with larger companies, which may have a material adverse effect upon the results of operations of the Company.

Compliance costs with recently enacted changes in the securities laws and regulations pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 will increase our costs.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 that became law in July 2002 has required changes in some of our corporate governance, securities disclosure, accounting and compliance practices. In response to the requirements of that act, the Securities and Exchange Commission has promulgated rules on a variety of subjects. Compliance with these rules as well as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 has increased our legal, financial and accounting costs, and we expect the cost of compliance with these new rules to continue to increase and to be permanent. Further, the new rules may increase the expenses associated with our director and officer liability insurance.

We have identified Material Weaknesses in our Internal Controls over Financial Reporting.

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Section 404”) requires us to include management's assessment of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. A material weakness is defined as a significant deficiency or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our financial statements will not be prevented by our internal control over financial reporting. In connection with the preparation of this Annual Report, management of the Company identified material weaknesses in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting. Because of these material weaknesses, there is heightened risk that a material misstatement of our financial statements will not be prevented or detected. We intend to take steps to remediate our material weaknesses, including hiring additional accounting and finance personnel and engaging consultants, but we cannot assure you that our efforts to remediate these internal control weaknesses will be successful, that similar material weaknesses will not recur or that we will not identify new material weaknesses. In the event that we do not adequately remedied these material weaknesses, and if we fail to maintain proper and effective internal controls in future periods, we could become subject to potential review by the Securities and Exchange Commission or other regulatory authorities, which could require additional financial and management resources and could compromise our ability to run our business effectively, could cause investors to lose confidence in our financial reporting and could have a material adverse effect upon the Company and could result in a reduction in the price of our common stock.

We may be unable to retain key employees or recruit additional qualified personnel.

Due to the current demand for employees in the oil and gas industry, our extremely limited number of employees means that we could be required to spend significant sums of money to locate and train new employees if we require additional employees in the future or if any of our existing employees resign or depart for any reason. Due to our limited operating history, financial resources and familiarity with our operations, we have a significant dependence on the continued service of our existing officers, Samyak Veera and Tristan Farel. We do not carry key man life insurance on either Messrs. Veera or Farel. We may not have the financial resources to hire a replacement if one or both of our officers were unavailable for any reason. The loss of service of either of these individuals could, therefore, significantly and adversely affect our operations.

Samyak Veera, our CEO and President may become subject to conflicts of interest.

Samyak Veera, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and President, devotes such time as he deems necessary to perform his duties to the Company and is subject to various conflicts of interest. Mr. Veera devotes other time to other business endeavors and has responsibilities to other entities. Further, Mr. Veera is the sole director of Iris Energy Holdings Ltd., the largest holder of common stock in the Company, and exercises voting and dispositive power of the securities owned by it. Because of these relationships, Mr. Veera may become subject to conflicts of interest.

Colorado law and our Articles of Incorporation may protect our officers and directors from certain types of lawsuits.

Colorado 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 Articles of Incorporation permit us to indemnify our officers and directors 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 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.

Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock into the public market may result in significant downward pressure on the price of our common stock and could affect the ability of our stockholders to realize the current trading price of our common stock.

We have a large number of shares eligible for future sale. Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market could cause a reduction in the market price of our common stock. As of October 19, 2010, there were 68,325,516 shares of our common stock outstanding (78,864 have not been issued for technical reasons) and 18,798 shares of our $0.001 par value Series B 12% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series B preferred stock”) issued and outstanding. If all of the Series B preferred stock, warrants and options to acquire shares of our common stock we currently have outstanding were converted into shares of common stock or were exercised, we would have to issue an additional 14,973,301 shares of our common stock for a then total of 83,298,817 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding. Further, as of October 19, 2010, our officers and directors or their affiliates own 37,845,380 shares of our common stock, or 55% of our currently outstanding shares of common stock that may be sold pursuant to Rule 144. Further, we may issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our common stock under the 2007 Omnibus Long Term Incentive Plan. As a result, a substantial number of our shares of common stock may be issued and may be available for immediate resale, which could have an adverse effect on the price of our common stock.

The trading price of our Common Stock on has fluctuated, and will likely continue to fluctuate significantly.

Since June 4, 2004, our common stock has traded as low as $0.08 and as high as $3.25. In addition, the trading volume in our common stock may fluctuate and cause significant price variations to occur. In addition to the volatility associated with pink sheet securities in general, the value of your investment could decline due to the impact of any of the following factors, or other factors not set forth herein, upon the market price of our Common Stock:

·	Changes in the world wide price for oil or natural gas;

·	Disappointing results from our discovery or development efforts;

·	Failure to meet our revenue or profit goals or operating budget;

·	Decline in demand for our Common Stock;

·	Changes in general market conditions;

·	Lack of funding for continued operations;

·	Investor perception of our industry or our prospects; or

·	General economic trends.

In addition, stock markets have experienced extreme 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 price of our Common Stock.

We will require additional capital and we may be unable to obtain needed capital or financing on satisfactory terms, if at all.

The oil and natural gas industry is capital intensive. We make and expect to continue to make substantial capital expenditures in our business and operations for the exploration for and development, production and acquisition of oil and natural gas reserves. To date, we have financed capital expenditures primarily with sales of our equity securities, debt financing and cash generated by operations. To accomplish our plan of operations, we will be required to seek additional financing. There can be no assurance as to the availability or terms of any additional financing. Even if additional capital is needed, we may not be able to obtain debt or equity financing on terms favorable to us, or at all. The failure to obtain additional financing could result in a curtailment of our operations relating to exploration and development of the Slater Dome Field and the Focus Ranch Unit or of our other prospects, which in turn could lead to a possible loss of properties.

Issuances of additional shares of our stock in the future could dilute existing shareholders' holdings and may adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock. We have the authority to issue, without stockholder approval, up to 500,000,000, shares of Common Stock. Because our Common Stock is traded on the Pink Sheets and is not listed on an exchange, we are not required to solicit shareholder approval prior to issuing large blocks of our stock. Any such future issuances could be at values substantially below the price paid for our Common Stock by our current shareholders. In addition, we could issue large blocks of our Common Stock to fend off unwanted tender offers or hostile takeovers without further stockholder approval. The issuance of our stock may have a disproportionately large impact on its price compared to larger companies.

Our Common Stock is classified as a “penny stock” under SEC rules which limits the market for our Common Stock.

Since inception of trading in June 2004, our Common Stock has not traded at $5 or more per share. Because our stock is not traded on a stock exchange or on the NASDAQ National Market or the NASDAQ Small Cap Market, if the market price of the Common Stock is less than $5 per share, the Common Stock is classified as a “penny stock.” SEC Rule 15g-9 under the Exchange Act imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers that recommend the purchase or sale of penny stocks to persons other than those who qualify as an “established customer” or an “accredited investor.” This includes the requirement that a broker-dealer must make a determination that investments in penny stocks are suitable for the customer and must make special disclosures to the customers concerning the risk of penny stocks. Many broker-dealers decline to participate in penny-stock transactions because of the extra requirements imposed on those transactions. Application of the penny-stock rules to our Common Stock reduces the market liquidity of our shares, which in turn affects the ability of holders of our Common Stock to resell the shares they purchase, and they may not be able to resell at prices at or above the prices they paid.

The Series B Convertible Preferred Stock that we have issued adversely affects the right of the Common Stockholders.

Our Series B Preferred Stock pays cumulative preferred dividends equal to 12% per year, provides a preference in payment of dividends, redemption and liquidation over the Common Stock and Series B Preferred Stock and will, upon conversion, have all of the rights of our Common Stock. As of February 28. 2010, the Company had an aggregate of accrued and unpaid dividends totaling $1,030,565. Our Board of Directors has the authority to issue additional preferred stock, which could discourage potential takeover attempts or could delay or prevent a change in control through a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise by making these attempts more difficult or costly to achieve.

Control by Management.

As of October 19, 2010, Iris Energy owns approximately 51% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock and Mr. Veera owns approximately 4% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock. If Mr. Veera were to convert all of his options to purchase additional shares of our common stock, his ownership would increase to approximately 7% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock.

Mr. Veera is the sole director of Iris Energy and exercises voting and dispositive power of the securities owned by Iris Energy, therefore Iris Energy and Mr. Veera are able to influence the outcome of all matters submitted to our shareholders for approval, regardless of the preferences of the minority shareholders. Further, the interests of Iris Energy and Mr. Veera may or may not be different than the interests of the other shareholders.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation

Business Overview

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 consolidated audited financial statements are stated in United States Dollars and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

The following discussion and analysis covers our plan of operation for the next twelve months. It discusses our financial condition at February 28, 2010, and changes in our financial condition since February 28, 2009, the end of the prior fiscal year. It also covers our results of operation for the fiscal years ended February 28, 2010, and February 28, 2009. The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this Form 10-K.

We are an independent energy company engaged in the exploration, development, acquisition, and production of natural gas and crude oil. The Company’s operations are conducted entirely in the continental United States, principally in the Green River Basin in Colorado and Wyoming and the Denver Julesberg Basin in Colorado.

As of February 28, 2010 and 2009, there were no recoverable reserves from the Company’s wells in the Greater Green River Basin based upon the existing price of natural gas and the costs required to drill new wells or conduct operations.

In November 2009, the Company began a two well drilling program targeting the Niobrara formation, successfully drilling the Robidoux 13-15T and the Battle Mountain 14-15 to the targeted depths. Analysis and operations are ongoing to determine whether these wells are economically viable.

During the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, the Slater Dome Field produced 230,439 Gross MCF of gas, of which 52,165 Gross MCF was used in operations and 178,274 Gross MCF was delivered.

The Company is currently developing a plan of operations in conjunction with Entek for future operations. The resolution of and outcome of these discussions are not determinable as of the date of this Form 10-K.

Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Participation Agreement, Entek had the right, after agreeing to proceed with Phase II (as defined in the Participation Agreement) of the Participation Agreement, to elect to become the operator of the Focus Ranch Unit and the Slater Dome Field. Entek made this election and effective May 1, 2010, we filed an assignment with the appropriate regulatory agencies naming Entek as operator of the Focus Ranch Unit and the Slater Dome Field.

On June 4, 2010, NFEI entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement with Carrizo Oil & Gas, Inc. (“Carrizo”) to sell its interest in certain oil and gas leases (the “Leases”) in the Denver Julesburg Basin in Weld and Morgan Counties, Colorado. (Please see “Our Oil and Gas Operations” above for more details).

On September 1, 2010, NFEI entered into a Joint Exploration Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Yuma Exploration and Production Company, Inc. (“Yuma”), whereby NFEI will participate in the shooting, processing and interpretation of a 3-D seismic survey, the generation of prospects, the acquisition of leases, and the exploration, development and production of oil and gas prospects generated from the 3-D seismic in the Calcasieu and Jefferson Davis Parishes in Louisiana (Project Area”). Upon execution of the Agreement, the Company made an initial payment of approximately $680,000 to Yuma.

How We Evaluate Our Operations

We use a variety of financial and operational measurements to analyze our operating performance. These measurements include production levels, trends and prices, production volumes and trends, operating expenses, general and administrative expenses and operating cash flow.

Oil and gas revenue is the product of our production multiplied by the price that we receive for that production. Because the price that we receive is highly dependent on many factors outside of our control, production is the primary revenue driver over which we have some influence. Examples of activities that can positively influence production include drilling new wells, minimizing production downtime due to equipment malfunction, well workovers and cleanouts and recompletions of existing wells.

The price of natural gas has been extremely volatile, and we expect that this volatility will continue. Given the inherent volatility of natural gas prices, we plan our activities and budget based on sales price assumptions that we believe to be reasonable.

Results of Operation

Year Ended February 28, 2010 Compared to the Year Ended February 28, 2009

Oil and Gas Sales.

Our oil and gas sales decreased $939,150 or 77% to $280,415 during fiscal year ended February 28, 2010 compared to oil and gas sales of $1,219,565 during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2009. The decrease in oil and gas sales is primarily attributable to the decreased production from the Slater Dome Field together with decreased sale prices. Sales volumes were 88,060 Mcf in the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010 compared to 190,690 Mcf in fiscal year ended February 28, 2009, a decrease of 102,630 Mcf or 54%. The average sales price of natural gas sales for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, was $3.18 per Mcf compared to $6.02 per Mcf in fiscal year ended February 28, 2009, a decrease of $2.84 per Mcf or 47%. The decrease in production is principally related to the Slater Dome Field being shut-in during July and August 2009, due to the economic conditions and scheduled maintenance on several wells. During the fiscal year February 28, 2009, we enjoyed a full year of production from 6 wells that were drilled during fiscal year ended February 29, 2008. The decrease in the price of natural gas is a function of the general market conditions for natural gas.

Gas Gathering Income.

During the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, SDG’s gathering fees from the Gas Gathering Pipeline were $165,878, an increase of $29,761 or 22% as compared to February 28, 2009, which generated gathering fees of $136,117. The increase in the gas gathering fees is the result of the Participation Agreement with Entek. The gas gathering fees are included in the costs which are Qualifying Development Expenses (as defined in the Participation Agreement) that Entek is required to spend in order to earn up to a maximum of 55% of our working interest. As such, the fees that were generated from gathering fees between August 2009 and February 2010 were not eliminated upon consolidation of SDG and NFEI. Production volumes charged by SDG decreased during the year due to the field being shut-in for two months and the general decline curve.

Exploration Costs.

Exploration costs were $76,411 during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, as compared to $221,841 during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2009, a decrease of approximately $145,000 or 66%. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in geological consulting and due to the joint venture with Entek as initiated with the Participation Agreement. During the first and second quarter of fiscal year February 28, 2010, we only incurred delay rental costs and no geological and geophysical costs because we did not have an exploration program budgeted due to the economic condition of the Company. During the third and fourth quarters of the fiscal year, following the execution of the Participation Agreement with Entek, Entek carried us 100% on all exploration costs. Delay rentals are considered normal in the ordinary course of business.

Lease Operating Expense.

Lease operating expenses were $318,913 during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, as compared to $1,198,538 during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2009, a decrease of $879,625 or 73%. The decrease in lease operating expenses is primarily due to the Participation Agreement, where Entek will expend up to $12.5 million on all Qualified Development Expenses (as defined in the Participation Agreement), which include lease operating expenses. Due to this provision we did not record any lease operating expenses in the third or fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010.

Gas Gathering Costs.

Gas gathering costs are related to the gathering system owned and operated by SDG and remained flat coming in at $651 during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, compared to $656 during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2009. The cost to operate this pipeline are primarily fixed costs, therefore there is generally not a significant fluctuation in costs year to year.

General and Administrative Expense.

Our general and administrative expenses increased approximately $2.2 million or 55% to $6.1 million in fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, compared to $3.9 million during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2009. Our general and administrative expenses include both cash and non-cash charges. The increase can be primarily attributed to non-cash charges, which increased $3.0 million or 167%, offset by a decrease in cash charges of $0.8 million or 38% compared to the prior year. The major components of the non-cash and cash charges are as follows.

Our non-cash charges included in general and administrative expense include stock-based compensation and allowance for doubtful accounts. We recorded $4.3 million of stock-based compensation during fiscal year ended 2010, compared to $1.7 million during fiscal year ended 2009, an increase of $2.6 million or 169%. Stock-based compensation included $1.7 million related to stock options, of which $0.7 million is related to current year issuances, an additional $0.7 million to a director and our current President and CEO as consideration for services performed for the Company and $1.9 million related to two stock acquisitions by Iris Energy (affiliate), which represented the difference between the acquisition price and the market price of the stock on the date of the acquisition. We also recorded a $0.5 million provision for bad debt during the fiscal year ended 2010, compared to $0.2 million in fiscal year ended 2009. The bad debt expense in the current year is related to one of our working interest partners for past due joint interest billings where we have substantial doubt that we will be able to collect a portion of the outstanding balance. The provision for bad debt in the prior year was related to a drilling contractor’s inability to return advanced funds from the fiscal 2008 drilling program.

Cash general and administrative costs decreased $0.8 million during fiscal year ended 2010, compared to fiscal year ended 2009. The major components of our cash general and administrative expenses include professional fees, consulting fees, employee compensation and general office expense. This decrease can be primarily attributed to the Participation Agreement that we entered into with Entek in August 2009. As part of this agreement a portion of certain general and administrative costs were included in the costs that were carried and reimbursed to the Company. During fiscal year ended 2010, approximately $0.5 million of general and administrative costs were reimbursed. There were no costs reimbursed in the prior year.

The remaining $0.3 million decrease can be attributed to employee compensation and general office expense. Employee compensation decreased $0.2 million during fiscal year ended 2010 compared to 2009. The majority of this decrease is due to the change in the Company’s CEO and CFO. The former CFO resigned in August 2009, and the CFO position was filled in with contract CFO’s, whose costs are included in consulting fees. In November 2009, the former CEO resigned. The new CEO did not receive a cash salary during fiscal year 2010, and has been compensated with shares of the Company’s stock.

Professional and consulting were $0.5 million and $0.2 million, respectively, for fiscal years ended 2010 and 2009. Included in professional and consulting fees are accounting, legal, landman and public relations fees. Accounting fees increased approximately $60,000 compared to the prior year, while public relations fees decrease approximately $60,000 compared to the previous year. Legal and landman fees remained flat for both years.

Impairment Expense.

We recorded $7.3 million of impairment expense during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010. Approximately $7.0 million related to oil and gas properties from the assessment of the estimated expected undiscounted future net revenue associated with the properties, considering the current estimated revenue potential and the cost of production, as compared to the carrying value of the properties. The remaining $0.3 million of impairment expense recorded in the current year was related to the our inventory and our Steamboat Property (asset held for sale), which are recorded at lower of cost or market value. We recorded $7.5 million of impairment related to our oil and gas properties in the previous year.

Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization Expense.

Depreciation, depletion and amortization decreased $0.5 million or 52% to $0.4 million during the fiscal year ended 2010, compared to $0.9 million during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2009. We do not have any proved reserves, therefore our producing properties were all impaired and we did not record any depletion expense during the fiscal year ended 2010 and we only recorded depreciation and amortization related to our gathering facilities.

Other Income (Expense).

Other income (expense) includes the change in fair value of financial derivative instruments, interest income and interest expense. Other income (expense) increased $3.3 million in fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, compared to fiscal year end February 28, 2009. The primary reason for this increase is related to the adoption of EITF 07-05: Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) is indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock (“EITF 07-05”) on March 1, 2009. Upon its effectiveness, contracts (warrants, conversion features in debt, etc) that embody or embodied full-ratchet or reset provisions (that is, the strike, exercise or conversion prices adjust to pricing in subsequent sales or issuances of the Company’s common stock) no longer meet the definition of Indexed to a Company’s Own Stock and, accordingly, do not meet the exemptions for equity classification provided in ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The Series B and Series C Preferred stock contain an anti-dilution provision which provides for conversion price adjustments (“down round protection”), which requires the embedded conversion feature to be bifurcated and presented separately as a liability on the balance sheet. The adoption of EITF 07-05 represents a change in accounting principle, as such the Company recorded a onetime adjustment to beginning accumulated deficit and additional paid in capital of $35,170,000. These financial instruments are re-valued each reporting period, with the changes in the fair value recorded in earnings. During fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, we recorded approximately $3.3 million of income related to the change in the fair value of the derivative financial instruments.

Interest income decreased from approximately $66,000 during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2009 to $1,000 during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, a decrease of approximately $65,000 or 98% because of the decrease in the amount of cash balances held by the Company. Interest expense was consistent with the prior year.

Noncontrolling Interest.

The noncontrolling interest in the income of the consolidated subsidiary decreased approximately $27,000 to $10,000 or 73% in fiscal year ended 2010, compared to $37,000 in fiscal year ended 2009. This fluctuation relates to the change in activity in SDG for the respective periods, such fluctuation is considered normal in the ordinary course of business. Distributions of approximately $74,000 were made in fiscal year 2009, while there were no distributions made in the fiscal year ended 2010.

Preferred Stock.

We charged dividends on the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock in the amount of $213,000 and $261,000 during fiscal year ended 2010 and 2009, respectively, to the loss attributable to common shares. This represented a decrease of $48,000 or 18%. We charged dividends on the Series C Preferred Stock of $411,000 and $544,000, respectively to the loss attributable to common shares during the fiscal years ended February 28, 2010 and 2009, representing a decrease of $133,000 or 24%. The decrease in dividends on the Series B and C Preferred Stock is because of conversions of outstanding shares of the Series B and C Preferred Stock during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010.

Effective December 1, 2009, the 216,000 outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock converted into an aggregate 34,099,265 shares of common stock pursuant to the automatic conversion provisions of the Series C Preferred Stock. At February 28, 2010 and 2009, there were 0 and 216,000 shares, respectively of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding.

Liquidity and Capital Resources.

In order to meet our goals and objectives, we will have to effectively invest capital into our existing projects and into new projects and acquisitions that are low to medium risk. We will need to seek additional capital, likely through asset sales and debt or equity financings, to continue our proposed operations. We can give no assurance that we will be able to raise such capital on such terms and conditions we deem reasonable, if at all. We will have limited financial resources until such time that we are able to generate such additional financing or additional cash flow from operations. Our ability to achieve profitability and positive cash flow is dependent upon our ability to exploit our oil and gas properties, generate revenue from our business operations and control our costs. Should we be unable to raise adequate capital or to meet the other above objectives, it is likely that we would have to substantially curtail our business activity or cease operating, and that our investors would incur substantial losses of their investment.

We expect that working capital requirements will be funded through a combination of our existing funds, cash flow from operations, issuance of equity and debt securities. Management believes that current cash balances plus cash flow from operations will be sufficient to fund our capital and liquidity needs until at least February 28, 2011.

The following table summarizes the Company’s cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities and the amounts and percentage changes between years. The following analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statement of cash flows.

	February 28, 2010			February 29, 2009			Increase (Decrease)
Net cash used in operating activities	$	( 1,793,191	)	$	(1,723,756	)	$69,435 or (4%)

Cash Flow from Operating Activities

Cash used in operating activities remained flat increasing approximately $0.1 million or 4% to approximately $1.8 million during fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, compared to approximately $1.7 million used in the fiscal year ended February 28, 2009. This is the result of a decrease in production and lower natural gas prices realized during the current fiscal year, offset by a reduction in production costs.

Our sales volumes decreased 281 Mcf per day to 241 Mcf per day compared to 522 Mcf per day in the prior year and our realized price per Mcf decreased $2.76 per Mcf to $3.26 during fiscal year ended 2010, compared to $6.02 per Mcf during fiscal year ended 2009. The decrease in production and pricing was offset by the reduction in lease operating costs, which decreased approximately $0.8 million or 73% compared to the prior year.

Capital Expenditures

During fiscal year ended 2010, investing activities provided cash of approximately $0.4 million as compared to net cash used in investing activities of approximately $2.2 million during fiscal year ended 2009, an increase of $2.6 million or 119%. This increase can be primarily attributed to the sale of a portion of its Greater Green River Basin asset in conjunction with the Participation Agreement with Entek (See Note 2 - Acquisitions, Divestitures, and Assets Held for Sale), which included an initial asset purchase payment of $1.0 million. An additional payment of $0.2 million was received during the year related to the Participation Agreement and approximately $24,000 was received for the sale of a Company vehicle to the former President and CEO. These payments were offset by additional capital expenditures of $0.8 million related to the Slater Dome Field.

Financing Activities

During fiscal year ended 2010, financing activities provided cash of approximately $1.4 million, an increase of $0.2 million or 13% compared approximately $1.2 million of net cash provided by financing activities during fiscal year ended 2009. The results of the increase are primarily related to principal payments on our notes payable and sales of our common stock.

During fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, we made a principal payment of $0.2 million on the NRGG note payable and a principal payment of $0.2 million on the Steamboat Mortgage. We sold 18,000,000 shares of common stock, including 14,500,000 to affiliates of one of our directors, realizing gross proceeds from the sale of $1.8 million.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet financing arrangements or special purpose entities as of February 28, 2010. Accordingly, we are not materially exposed to any financing, liquidity, market or credit risk that could arise from these transactions if we had engaged in such financing arrangements.

Contractual Obligations

The following sets forth information with respect to our contractual obligations as of February 28, 2010.

	FY 2011		FY 2012		Thereafter		Total
Notes payable (1)	$	836,563	$	-	$	-	$	836,563
Office and lease equipment	$	14,447	$	16,856	$	-	$	31,303
Total	$	851,010	$	16,856	$	-	$	867,866

(1)

Includes the balance due on the New Steamboat Mortgage. At February 28, 2010, the balance of the New Steamboat Mortgage was $635,000. The Company paid off the outstanding balance on the Steamboat Mortgage of $633,962 ($1,058 of prepaid interest was refunded and credited against the principal balance of $635,000). Also includes the balance on the NRGG note payable of $201,563.

The Company, along with the other working interest owners at the property located at the Slater Dome field have agreed to pay SDG a fee of $0.50 per million British Thermal Units (“MMBtu”) of gas transported through the line until two-thirds of the original construction costs amounting to $2,609,841 are recovered and $0.25 thereafter. At the end of each of the first four years beginning June 3, 2005, if the total gathering revenue for the preceding year is less than two-thirds of the construction costs divided by five, SDG may increase the gathering fee for the year immediately following the year in which the shortfall occurs by the dollar amount per MMBtu necessary to make up the monetary equivalent of the annual shortfall or charge an annual shortfall fee to make up the difference. This obligation ended in June 2010, which resulted in a final shortfall payment of approximately $300,000.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates.

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon the consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The application of accounting policies involve judgments and uncertainties to such an extent that there is reasonable likelihood that materially different amounts could have been reported under different conditions, or if different assumptions had been used. We evaluate estimates and assumptions on a regular basis. We base estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ, perhaps materially, from these estimates and assumptions used in preparation of our financial statements. We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements.

Reserve Estimates.

Estimates of oil and natural gas reserves, by necessity, are projections based on geological and engineering data, and there are uncertainties inherent in the interpretation of such data, as well as the projection of future rates of production and the timing of development expenditures. Reserve engineering is a subjective process of estimating underground accumulations of oil and natural gas that are difficult to measure. The accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of the quality of available data, engineering and geological interpretation and judgment. Estimates of economically recoverable oil and natural gas reserves and future net cash flows necessarily depend upon a number of variable factors and assumptions, such as historical production from the area compared with production from other producing areas, the assumed effects of regulations by governmental agencies and assumptions governing future oil and natural gas prices, future operating costs, severance and excise taxes, development costs and work-over and remedial costs, all of which may in fact vary considerably from actual results. For these reasons, estimates of the economically recoverable quantities of oil and natural gas attributable to any particular group of properties, classifications of such reserves based on risk of recovery, and estimates of the future net cash flows expected there from may vary substantially. Any significant variance in the assumptions could materially affect the estimated quantity and value of the reserves, which could affect the carrying value of our oil and gas properties and/or the rate of depletion of the oil and gas properties. Actual production, revenues and expenditures with respect to our reserves will likely vary from estimates, and such variances may be material.

Many factors will affect actual net cash flows, including:

·	The amount and timing of actual production;

·	Supply and demand for natural gas;

·	Curtailments or increases in consumptions by natural gas purchasers; and

·	Changes in governmental regulation or taxation.

Revenue Recognition

The Company derives its revenue from the sale of produced natural gas and crude oil. Revenue is recognized when production is sold to a purchaser at a fixed or determinable price, when delivery has occurred and title transferred and if the collectability of the revenue is probable. Gas revenue is recorded using the sales method. Under this method revenue is recognized based on actual volumes of gas sold to purchasers. The Company may sell more or less than their entitlement share of the volumes produced, in which case a liability is recorded and the revenue is deferred if aggregate sales from the property exceed its share of total reserves in place. NFEI had no significant gas imbalances at February 28, 2010.

Oil and Gas Producing Activities.

The Company follows the successful efforts method of accounting for its oil and gas properties. Under this method of accounting, all property acquisition costs and costs of exploratory and development wells are capitalized when incurred, pending determination of whether the well found proved reserves. If an exploratory well does not find proved reserves, the costs of drilling the well are charged to expense. The costs of development wells are capitalized whether those wells are successful or unsuccessful. Geological and geophysical costs and the costs of carrying and retaining unproved properties are expensed as incurred. Depreciation, depletion and amortization of capitalized costs related to proved oil and gas properties is calculated on a well-by-well basis using the units-of-production method based upon proved reserves. Oil and gas facilities, which include compressors, gathering lines and water transfer and discharge equipment, and the natural gas gathering pipeline are depreciated straight-line over the estimated useful lives of the assets which range from seven to twenty years. The computation of depreciation, depletion and amortization takes into consideration restoration, dismantlement, and abandonment costs as well as the anticipated proceeds from salvaging equipment.

Impairment of Proved and Unproved Properties.

Producing oil and gas property costs are evaluated for impairment and reduced to fair value if the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than net book value pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 360, “Property, Plant, and Equipment” (“ASC Topic 360”). Expected future cash flows are calculated on all proved reserves using a discount rate and price forecasts selected by the Company’s management. The discount rate is a rate that management believes is representative of current market conditions. The price forecast is based on NYMEX strip pricing for the first five years, adjusted for basis differentials and at the end of the first five years a flat terminal price is used. Future operating costs are also adjusted as deemed appropriate for these estimates. The Company had no proved oil and gas reserves or costs at February 28, 2010 and 2009. The Company had no proved oil and gas reserves or costs at February 28, 2010 and 2009, therefore no provision for impairment was recorded against proved oil and gas properties.

An impairment write down is recorded on unproved property when the Company determines that either the property will not be developed or the carrying value is not realizable. For fiscal years ended February 28, 2010, and 2009, the Company recorded a provision for impairment for its unproved property of $7.0 million and $7.5 million, respectively. The impairment write-down consists of $7.0 million related to the Company’s assets located in the Greater Green River Basin in northwest Colorado and south central Wyoming.

Share Based Compensation.

The Company accounts for share-based compensation in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718— Stock Compensation which requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards made to employees and directors on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense ratably over the requisite service periods. We estimate the fair value of each share-based award using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Black-Scholes model is highly complex and dependent on key estimates by management. The estimates with the greatest degree of subjective judgment are the estimated lives of the stock-based awards and the estimated volatility of our stock price.

Asset Retirement Obligations.

The Company recognizes an estimated liability for future costs associated with the abandonment of its oil and gas properties. A liability for the fair value of an asset retirement obligation and corresponding increase to the carrying value of the related long-lived asset are recorded at the time a well is completed or acquired. The increase in carrying value is included in oil and gas properties in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company depletes the amount added to proved oil and gas property costs and recognizes expense in connection with the accretion of the discounted liability over the remaining estimated economic lives of the respective oil and gas properties.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

New authoritative accounting guidance under FASB ASC Topic 105, “Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (“ASC Topic 105”) established the FASB Accounting Standards Codification as the source of authoritative U.S. GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied to nongovernmental entities. This standard establishes only two levels of GAAP, authoritative and nonauthoritative. The FASB ASC was not intended to change or alter existing GAAP, and the Company’s adoption effective September 1, 2009, did not therefore have any impact on its consolidated financial statements other than to modify certain existing disclosures. The FASB ASC will become the source of authoritative, nongovernmental GAAP, except for rules and interpretive releases of the SEC, which are sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. All other nongrandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the FASB ASC will become nonauthoritative. FASB ASC is effective for financial statements for interim or annual reporting periods ending after September 15, 2009. Upon adoption, the Company began to use the new guidelines and numbering system prescribed by the FASB ASC when referring to GAAP. ASC Topic 105 supersedes existing FASB, American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, Emerging Issues Task Force, and related literature. All other accounting literature is considered nonauthoritative.

New authoritative accounting guidance under FASB ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations” (“ASC Topic 805”) requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize and measure all assets and liabilities assumed in the transaction and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree at fair value as of the acquisition date. ASC Topic 805 changes the way the Company accounts for acquisitions of proved oil and gas properties. Such acquisitions will now be treated as business combinations, which will require transaction costs to be expensed as incurred, may generate gains or losses due to fair value changes between the effective and closing dates of acquisitions, and will require possible recognition of goodwill given differences between the purchase price and fair value of acquired assets. ASC Topic 805 further amends the initial recognition and measurement, subsequent measurement and accounting, and disclosures of assets and liabilities arising from contingencies in a business combination. The new authoritative guidance under ASC Topic 805 became effective for the Company on March 1, 2009, and the impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements will largely be dependent on the size and nature of the business combinations completed. The Company has not made any significant acquisitions of oil and gas properties since adoption.

New authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 855 established general standards of accounting for and disclosures of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. Specifically, this standard sets forth the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements, and the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. The new authoritative guidance under ASC Topic 855 became effective for the Company on June 1, 2009, and did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. On February 24, 2010, the Company adopted FASB ASC Update 2010-09, “Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements,” that removes the requirement for SEC filers to disclose the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events. However, the date-disclosure exemption does not relieve management of an SEC filer from its responsibility to evaluate subsequent events through the date on which financial statements are issued. This authoritative guidance was effective upon issuance on February 24, 2010. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In December 2008 the SEC published the final rules and interpretations updating its oil and gas reporting requirements. Many of the revisions are updates to definitions in the existing oil and gas rules to make them consistent with the Petroleum Resource Management System, which was developed by several petroleum industry organizations and is a widely accepted standard for the management of petroleum resources. Key revisions include a requirement to use 12-month average pricing determined by averaging the first of the month prices for the preceding 12 months rather than year-end pricing for estimating proved reserves, the ability to include nontraditional resources in reserves, the ability to use new technology for determining proved reserves, and permitting disclosure of probable and possible reserves. The Company adopted these new rules and interpretations as of February 28, 2010, with no material impact.

The FASB aligned ASC Topic 932, with all of the aforementioned SEC requirements by issuing ASC Update 2010-03. The new authoritative guidance became effective for the Company’s 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K and has been fully adopted by the Company as of February 28, 2010.

In January 2010 the FASB issued ASC Update 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC Update 2010-06”) that requires additional disclosures surrounding transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2, inputs and valuation techniques used to value Level 2 and 3 measurements, and push down of previously prescribed fair value disclosures to each class of asset and liability for Levels 1, 2, and 3. This new authoritative guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009. The Company applied the new authoritative guidance in the Company’s May 31, 2010, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. ASC Update 2010-06 also requires that purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements for Level 3 measurements be disclosed. This portion of the new authoritative guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2010. The Company will apply this new authoritative guidance in the Company’s May 31, 2011, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The adoption of ASC Update 2010-06 will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

Oil and Gas Price Risk

Our primary market risk exposure is in the pricing applicable to our natural gas and oil production. Realized pricing is primarily driven by the prevailing worldwide price for crude oil and spot market prices applicable to our U.S. natural gas production. Pricing for natural gas and oil production has been volatile and unpredictable for several years, and we expect this volatility to continue in the future. The prices we receive for production depend on many factors outside of our control including volatility in the differences between product prices at sales points and the applicable index price. These factors include, but are not limited to: changes in market demands, the general state of the economy, weather, pipeline activity and capacity and inventory storage levels. We are not currently using derivatives at this time to mitigate the risk of adverse changes in commodity prices, however, we may consider using them in the future.

Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

The information required by this item is included in Item 15, “Exhibits.”

Item 9. Changes In and Disagreements With Accountants On Accounting and Financial Disclosure

On April 9, 2010, New Frontier Energy, Inc. (the “Company”) dismissed Stark Winter Schenkein & Co., LLP (“Stark Winters”) as its independent registered public accounting firm.

In Stark Winter’s principal accountant’s report on the Company’s financial statements for each of the past two years, no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion was issued and no opinion of Stark Winters was modified as to audit scope or accounting principles. Stark Winter’s report on the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2009, as reported in the registrant’s Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 29, 2010 contained a paragraph concerning uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The change in auditor was recommended and approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.

During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and subsequent interim periods preceding this change of independent auditors, the Company is not aware of any disagreements with Stark Winters on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure.

During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and subsequent interim periods preceding the dismissal of Stark Winters, the Company was not advised by Stark Winters of any of the “reportable events” described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

On April 9, 2010, the Company engaged Hein & Associates, LLP as its new independent registered public accounting firm. During the two most recent fiscal years and subsequent interim periods preceding the appointment of Hein & Associates, LLP, the Company has not consulted with Hein & Associates, LLP regarding any matter. The Company provided Hein & Associates, LLP the opportunity to clarify any past involvement. Hein & Associates, LLP had no further comments.

Item 9A(T). Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f).

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management’s evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures determined that, because of the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting (“ICFR”) described below, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of February 28, 2010.

Management’s report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing ICFR as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f) under the 1934 Act. Our ICFR are intended to be designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Our ICFR are expected to include those policies and procedures that management believes are necessary that:

·	Pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets;

Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and our directors; and

·	Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Management recognizes that there are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any system of internal control, and accordingly, even effective internal control can provide only reasonable assurance with respect of financial statement preparation and may not prevent or detect misstatements. In addition, effective internal control at a point in time may become ineffective in future periods because of changes in conditions or due to deterioration in the degree of compliance with our established policies and procedures.

As of February 28, 2010, management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective ICFR established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) and SEC guidance on conducting such assessments by smaller reporting companies and non-accelerated filers.

Based on that assessment, management concluded that, during the period covered by this report, such internal controls and procedures were not effective as of February 28, 2010, and that a material weaknesses in ICFR existed as more fully described below.

As defined by Auditing Standard No. 5, “An Audit of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting that is Integrated with an Audit of Financial Statements and Related Independence Rule and Conforming Amendments,” established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”), a material weakness is a deficiency or combination of deficiencies that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. In connection with the assessment described above, management identified the following control deficiencies that represent material weaknesses as of February 28, 2010:

Inadequate Staffing And Supervision Within Our Accounting Operations

The relatively small number of accountants who are responsible for bookkeeping functions prevents us from segregating duties within our internal control system. The inadequate segregation of duties is a weakness because it could lead to the untimely identification and resolution of accounting and disclosure matters or could lead to a failure to perform timely and effective reviews. During the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, we had only one person, an executive officer, that performed nearly all aspects of our financial reporting process, including, but not limited to, access to the underlying accounting records and systems, the ability to post and record journal entries and responsibility for the preparation of the financial statements. This provides for a lack of review over the financial reporting process that may result in a failure to detect errors in spreadsheets, calculations, or assumptions used to compile the financial statements and related disclosures as filed with the SEC. As we had only one full time employee, we also do not have a sufficient compliment of personnel with appropriate training and experience in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and SEC reporting to fully address complex financial reporting matters.

Inadequate Physical Security Of Certain Information Technology Assets And Data

Due to space limitations, certain network equipment is stored in common areas, which are accessible by unauthorized personnel. In addition, offsite backup of data is sporadic. These factors may result in the loss of financial data, which could adversely affect the reliability of information used to compile the financial statements and related disclosures as filed with the SEC.

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting or disclosure controls and procedures. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report.

This report shall not be deemed to be filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, and is not incorporated by reference into any filing of the Company, whether made before or after the date hereof, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.

Item 9B. Other Information

Directors and executive officers and 10% owners are required by SEC regulation to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. To the Company's knowledge, based solely on review of copies of such reports furnished to us and verbal representations that no other reports were required to be filed during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, all Section 16(a) filing requirements were met except that (i) Samyak Veera failed to timely file three Form 4s disclosing four transactions, (ii) Lazer G. Schafran failed to timely file one Form 4 disclosing one transaction and (iii) Robert Bensh failed to timely file a Form 3. Each of the directors subsequently filed or intend to subsequently file the appropriate forms disclosing each of these transactions.

Corporate Governance

Committees

The Company does not have an audit committee, compensation committee, nominating committee, or other committee of the board that performs similar functions. Consequently the Company has not designated an audit committee financial expert. The entire board of directors of the Company, of which Messrs. Schafran and Bensh are considered “independent” as defined in Section 121 of the NYSE Amex Equities listing standards, perform the roles of these committees.

Item 11. Executive Compensation

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Our executive compensation program for the named executive officers (NEO’s) is administered by the Company’s Board of Directors. We do not have a compensation committee.

Compensation Objectives

We believe that the compensation programs for our NEO’s should reflect our performance and the value created for the Company's stockholders. In addition, the compensation programs should support the short-term and long-term strategic goals and values of the Company, and should reward individual contributions to the Company's success. We believe that the structure of the compensation programs for our executives reflects these objectives. Our compensation programs consist of three basic components: base salary, short-term compensation and long-term compensation.

Elements of Compensation

The elements of our compensation program include: (1) base salary, (2) short term compensation, and (3) long term compensation.

Base Salary.

Base salaries for the NEO’s are established based on the scope of their performance, responsibilities, professional qualifications and the other elements of the executive's compensation. The Company’s NEO’s base salary is subject to review and amendment at any time by the board of directors, in its sole and absolute discretion. Not all of the Company’s NEO’s receive a base salary.

Short-term Compensation.

Short-term compensation consists primarily of cash bonuses. The Company does not have a formal plan for the determination of short-term compensation. The short-term components are designed to reward the contributions of the NEO’s toward the Company’s annual financial, operational and strategic goals and reward individual performance.

Long-term Compensation.

Long-term compensation is comprised of various forms of equity compensation, including stock grants and stock options. The long-term elements are designed to assist the Company in long-term retention of key personnel and further align the interests of our NEO’s with our shareholders.

The determination of each element of compensation to the NEO’s are entirely in the discretion of the Board. We do not currently use any specific benchmarks or performance goals in determining the elements of and the size of awards and compensation.

Equity Award Practices

All equity awards are approved before or on the date of grant. The exercise price of at-the-money stock options and the grant price of all full-value awards is the closing price on the date of grant.

Our equity award approval process specifies the individual receiving the grant, the number of units or the value of the award, the exercise price or formula for determining the exercise price and the date of grant. The Company has no program, plan or practice to the timing of its option grants and such grants are determined by the Board of Directors.

On November 13, 2009, the Company granted Lazar G. Schafran 2,000,000 options to acquire shares of the Company’s Common Stock. Of the options granted, 1,000,000 are exercisable at a price of $0.25 per share and a fair value of $0.22 and expire on December 31, 2010 and 1,000,000 are exercisable at a price of $0.50 per share and a fair value of $0.20 and expire on December 31, 2011.

At the Company's election, this payment may be made either in cash or a 2-year unsecured promissory note issued by the Company in the principal amount of $50,000 (the “Note”). If the Company elects to issue the Note to Mr. Schafran, the Note will accrue interest on a monthly basis at a rate equal to the 1-month London Interbank Offered Rate, with such accrued and unpaid interest to be paid on the maturity date of the Note.

Mr. Veera, an officer and director of the Company did not receive any compensation relating solely to services performed as a director. Mr. Veera did receive compensation in connection with his services as an officer of the Company and for certain consulting services provided to the Company. See “Summary Compensation Table” above and “Item 13. Related Party Transactions” below.

Liability Insurance.

The Company has provided liability insurance for its directors and officers since April 13, 2005. The annual cost of this coverage is approximately $25,000.

Stock Option and Stock Grant Plan

On June 6, 2003, we adopted the New Frontier Energy, Inc. Stock Option and Stock Grant Plan (the “2003 Plan”). The 2003 Plan allows for the issuance of incentive (qualified) options, non-qualified options and the grant of stock or other equity incentives to our employees, consultants, directors and others providing service of special significance to our company. The 2003 Plan is administered by a committee to be appointed by our Board of Directors, or in the absence of that appointment, by the Board of Directors itself. The 2003 Plan provides for the issuance of up to 625,000 shares or options.

Incentive stock options may be granted only to statutory employees. Non-qualified options and stock grants may be made to employees, consultants, directors and other individuals or entities determined by the committee. Incentive and non-qualified options may be granted to the same individual, in the discretion of the committee. The terms of the options or the grants, including the number of shares covered by the option or award, the exercise price, vesting schedule, and term, are determined in the sole discretion of the committee, except that incentive options must satisfy the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to incentive options. No option may be exercised more than ten years from the date of grant. The 2003 Plan expires in 2013.

As of October 19, 2010, we had previously granted 625,000 options to acquire shares of our common stock pursuant to the 2003 Plan, of which all have been forfeited and are available for grant under the 2003 Plan.

2007 Omnibus Long Term Incentive Plan

On June 11, 2007, the shareholders of the Company approved and ratified the Company’s 2007 Omnibus Long Term Incentive Plan (the “2007 Plan”), which authorizes the issuance of up to 10,000,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock that may be issued under the 2007 Plan.

The purposes of the 2007 Plan are to provide those who are selected for participation in the 2007 Plan with added incentives to continue in the long-term service of the Company and to create in such persons a more direct interest in the future success of the operations of the Company by providing such persons an opportunity to acquire or increase a direct proprietary interest in the operations and future success of the Company. The 2007 Plan is also designed to provide a financial incentive that will help the Company attract, retain and motivate the most qualified employees, consultants and advisors. The 2007 Plan is administered by a committee of the members of the board of directors, or in the absence of appointment of a committee, by the entire Board of Directors.

Pursuant to the terms of the 2007 Plan, the committee may grant incentive stock options (“Incentive Options”) within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), non-qualified stock options (“Non-Qualified Options”), restricted stock awards, stock grants and stock appreciation rights (collectively the “Awards”) to Eligible Employees and Eligible Consultants, each as defined in the 2007 Plan. Eligible Consultants are those consultants and advisors to the Company who are determined, by the committee, to be individuals whose services are important to the Company and who are eligible to receive Awards, other than Incentive Options, under the Plan. The number of Eligible Consultants will vary from time to time.

Stock options granted under the 2007 Plan may be either Incentive Options or Non-Qualified Options. The exercise price of a stock option granted under the 2007 Plan will be determined by the committee at the time the option is granted, the exercise price may or may not be the fair market value of our Common Stock. Stock options are exercisable at the times and upon the conditions that the committee may determine, as reflected in the applicable option agreement. The committee will also determine the maximum duration of the period in which the option may be exercised, which may not exceed ten years from the date of grant. All of the shares available for issuance under the Plan may be made subject to Incentive Options.

The option exercise price must be paid in full at the time of exercise, and is payable (in the discretion of the committee) by any one of the following methods or a combination thereof:

•	in cash or cash equivalents,

•	the surrender of previously acquired shares of our Common Stock,

•	authorization for us to withhold a number of shares otherwise payable pursuant to the exercise of an option, or

•	to the extent permitted by applicable law, through any other procedure acceptable to the committee.

The 2007 Plan provides for awards of our Common Stock that are subject to restrictions on transferability imposed under the 2007 Plan and other restrictions that may be determined by the committee in its discretion. Such restrictions will lapse on terms established by the committee. Except as may be otherwise provided under the award agreement relating to the restricted stock, a participant granted restricted stock will have all the rights of a stockholder.

The 2007 Plan provides that the committee, in its discretion, may award Stock Appreciation Rights (“SARs”), either in tandem with stock options or freestanding and unrelated to options. From time to time during the duration of the 2007 Plan, the committee may, in its sole discretion, adopt one or more incentive compensation arrangements for Participants pursuant to which the Participants may acquire shares of Stock, whether by purchase, outright grant, or otherwise.

The maximum number of shares of Common Stock that are authorized for issuance under the 2007 Plan is 10,000,000.

The Board of Directors may modify or terminate the 2007 Plan or any portion of the 2007 Plan at any time (subject to participant consent where such change would adversely affect an award previously granted to the participant), except that an amendment that requires stockholder approval in order for the 2007 Plan to continue to comply with any law, regulation or stock exchange requirement will not be effective unless approved by the requisite vote of our stockholders. In addition, the 2007 Plan or any outstanding option may not be amended to effectively decrease the exercise price of any outstanding option unless first approved by the stockholders. No awards may be granted under the 2007 Plan after the day prior to the tenth anniversary of its adoption date, but awards granted prior to that time can continue after such time in accordance with their terms.

As of October 19, 2010, 100,000 shares of restricted common stock has been issued or granted under the 2007 Plan and 9,900,000 shares are available for issuance.

Royalty and Working Interest Plan

On May 17, 2007, the Board of Directors adopted the Company’s Royalty and Working Interest Plan effective as of October 31, 2006. Pursuant to the Royalty and Working Interest Plan, a committee consisting of members of the board of directors shall administer the Plan and may select an overriding royalty or similar interest of an exploratory or development property or property for distribution to the participants of the Plan. The selection of properties is to be determined by the Board of Directors or a committee thereof, and it will be based upon all relevant factors such as sound corporate management and existing royalty burdens on the properties. The participants in the plan and the total overriding royalty or similar interest set aside for distribution to the participants in a property shall be determined by the Committee.

On May 12, 2008, the Board of Directors granted an aggregate of 2% in overriding royalty interests in the eight wells drilled on the Slater Dome Field in the fiscal year ended February 29, 2008, including 0.50% to Buffalo Resources, LLC, an affiliate of Paul G. Laird and Wolverine Resources, LLC, an affiliate of Les Bates During the fiscal years ended February 28, 2010 and 2009, Buffalo Resources, LLC and Wolverine Resources, LLC were each paid overriding royalties in the amount of $240 and $2,773, respectively.

Except as provided above, no other interests have been granted under the Company’s Royalty and Working Interest Plan.

Pursuant to the Entek Participation Agreement, Samyak Veera, a director of the Company, agreed to deposit $500,000 into a segregated account (the “Segregated Arbitration Funds”). In the event the Company has insufficient funds available to satisfy the Company’s share of the arbitrator’s award in the arbitration conducted pursuant to the Stull Ranch Settlement Agreement (the “Arbitrator’s Award”), then the Company shall draw upon the funds in the Stull Ranch Account to satisfy the balance of the Arbitrator’s Award, unless earlier released to Mr. Veera pursuant to terms and conditions set forth in the Participation Agreement.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Shareholders and Board of Directors

New Frontier Energy, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of New Frontier Energy, Inc. as of February 28, 2009 and the related consolidated statement of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year ended February 28, 2009. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States of America). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of New Frontier Energy, Inc. as of February 28, 2009 and the results of its operations, and its cash flows for the years ended February 28, 2009, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

February 28, 2010

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The Company and Business

New Frontier Energy, Inc. (“NFEI” or the “Company”) is an independent energy company engaged in the exploration, development, acquisition, and production of natural gas and crude oil. The Company’s operations are conducted entirely in the continental United States, principally in the Green River Basin in Colorado and Wyoming and the Denver Julesberg Basin in Colorado.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NFEI and Slater Dome Gathering, LLLP (“SDG”) and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and the instructions to Form 10-K and Regulation S-X. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. In connection with the preparation of the consolidated financial statements of NFEI and in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 855, “Subsequent Events” (“ASC Topic 855”) the Company evaluated subsequent events after the balance sheet date of February 28, 2010. For additional information regarding ASC, please refer to the section titled Recently Issued Accounting Standards within this Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.

Principles of Consolidation

The February 28, 2010, consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NFEI as of and for the reporting periods ended February 28, and include the accounts of SDG as of and for the reporting periods ended December 31. SDG has a calendar fiscal year end, December 31, which is consolidated with the Company effective February 28. The creditors of SDG do not have recourse to the general credit of the Company.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of oil and gas reserves, assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates of proved oil and gas reserve quantities provide the basis for the calculation of depletion, depreciation, and amortization (“DD&A”) and impairment of proved properties, each of which represents a significant component of the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Industry Segment and Geographic Information

NFEI operates the following business segments, which are all considered reportable business segments: oil and gas exploration and gas gathering. There is no aggregation of operating segments within NFEI’s reportable business segments. NFEI’s management believes these reportable business segments properly align the various operations with how the chief operating decision makers view the business. NFEI’s chief operating decision makers regularly review financial information about each of these reportable business segments in deciding how to allocate resources and evaluate performance.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all liquid investments purchased with an initial maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

NEW FRONTIER ENERGY, INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

February 28, 2010

Accounts Receivable

The Company’s accounts receivables consist mainly of receivables from oil and gas purchasers and from partners with interests in common properties operated by the Company. Collectability is dependent upon the financial wherewithal of each individual company and is influenced by the general economic conditions of the industry. The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts on a case by case basis once there is evidence that collection is not probable. Receivables are not collateralized. As of February 28, 2010 and 2009, the Company had recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts of $835,132 and $217,200, respectively.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject NFEI to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash equivalents, production and joint interest receivables. The Company periodically maintains cash balances at a commercial bank in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limit of $250,000. At February 28, 2010 the Company’s uninsured cash balance was $566,317. The company’s joint interest receivables are due from two partners at February 28, 2010, and 2009. NFEI derived approximately 91% of its oil and gas production revenue from one purchaser. The Company, however, believes that it is not dependent upon any of these customers due to the nature of its product. The terms of the sales agreement provide that the Company may terminate by giving written notice thirty days prior to the anniversary date of the agreement.

The concentration of credit risk in the oil and gas industry affects the overall exposure to credit risk because customers may be similarly affected by changes in economic or other conditions. The creditworthiness of customers and other counterparties is subject to continuing review, including the use of master netting agreements, where appropriate.

Oil and Gas Producing Activities

The Company follows the successful efforts method of accounting for its oil and gas properties. Under this method of accounting, all property acquisition costs and costs of exploratory and development wells are capitalized when incurred, pending determination of whether the well found proved reserves. If an exploratory well does not find proved reserves, the costs of drilling the well are charged to expense. The costs of development wells are capitalized whether those wells are successful or unsuccessful. Geological and geophysical costs and the costs of carrying and retaining unproved properties are expensed as incurred. Depletion, depreciation and amortization (“DD&A”) of capitalized costs related to proved oil and gas properties is calculated on a well-by-well basis using the units-of-production method based upon proved reserves. Oil and gas facilities, which include compressors, gathering lines and water transfer and discharge equipment, and the natural gas gathering pipeline are depreciated straight-line over the estimated useful lives of the assets which range from seven to twenty years. The computation of DD&A takes into consideration restoration, dismantlement, and abandonment costs as well as the anticipated proceeds from salvaging equipment.

Impairment of Proved and Unproved Properties

Proved producing oil and gas property costs are evaluated for impairment and reduced to fair value if the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than net book value pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 360, “Property, Plant, and Equipment” (“ASC Topic 360”). Expected future cash flows are calculated on all proved reserves using a discount rate and price forecasts selected by the Company’s management. The discount rate is a rate that management believes is representative of current market conditions. The price forecast is based on NYMEX strip pricing for the first five years, adjusted for basis differentials and at the end of the first five years a flat terminal price is used. Future operating costs are also adjusted as deemed appropriate for these estimates. The Company had no proved oil and gas reserves or proved oil and gas property costs at February 28, 2010 and 2009, therefore no provision for impairment was recorded for proved oil and gas properties.

An impairment write down is recorded on unproved property when the Company determines that either the property will not be developed or the carrying value is not realizable. For fiscal years ended February 28, 2010, and 2009, the Company recorded a provision for impairment for its unproved property of $7.0 million and $7.5 million, respectively. The impairment write down consists of $7.0 million related to the Company’s assets located in the Greater Green River Basin in northwest Colorado and south central Wyoming.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

February 28, 2010

Sales of Proved and Unproved Properties

The sale of a partial interest in a proved oil and gas property is accounted for as normal retirement, and no gain or loss is recognized as long as the treatment does not significantly affect the units-of-production depletion rate. A gain or loss is recognized for all other sales of producing properties and is included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The sale of a partial interest in an unproved property is accounted for as a recovery of cost when substantial uncertainty exists as to the ultimate recovery of the cost applicable to the interest retained. A gain on the sale is recognized to the extent that the sales price exceeds the carrying amount of the unproved property. A gain or loss is recognized for all other sales of nonproducing properties and is included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Other Property and Equipment

Other property and equipment such as office furniture and equipment, buildings, and computer hardware and software are recorded at cost. Costs of renewals and improvements that substantially extend the useful lives of the assets are capitalized. Maintenance and repair costs are expensed when incurred. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets which range from three to thirty years. When other property and equipment is sold or retired, the capitalized costs and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts. Other property and equipment is valued at the lower of cost or market value.

Assets Held for Sale

In accordance with ASC Topic 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment” assets are classified as held for sale when the Company commits to a plan to sell the assets and there is reasonable certainty that the sale will take place within one year. Upon classification as held for sale, long-lived assets are no longer depreciated or depleted and a measurement for impairment is performed to expense any excess of carrying value over fair value less costs to sell. Subsequent changes to estimated fair value less the cost to sell will impact the measurement of assets held for sale for assets for which fair value is determined to be less than the carrying value of the assets.

As of February 28, 2010, the accompanying consolidated balance sheet includes $1.4 million in book value of assets held for sale, net of accumulated DD&A. The above assets held for sale include the Steamboat Property and unproved acreage located in the Denver Julesberg Basin. The Company recorded an impairment related to its Steamboat Property of $0.3 million during fiscal year ended 2010 and there was no impairment in fiscal year ended 2009. The Company began marketing these assets in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2010. The Company determined that these sales do not qualify for discontinued operations accounting under ASC Topic 205.

On June 4, 2010, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement with Carrizo Oil & Gas, Inc. (“Carrizo”) to sell its interest in certain oil and gas leases in the Denver Julesburg Basin in Weld and Morgan Counties, Colorado. The Company received an initial advance of $5.5 million from this sale (see Note 12 - Subsequent Events for additional discussion).

Materials Inventory

The Company’s materials inventory is primarily comprised of tubular goods to be used in future drilling or repair operations. Materials inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market and totaled $149,615 and $198,014 at February 28, 2010, and 2009, respectively. The Company incurred net materials inventory impairment for fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, of $48,400 as a result of the decrease in value of tubular goods. There were no materials inventory impairments for fiscal year ended February 28, 2009.

Income Taxes

Income taxes and uncertain tax positions are accounted for in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. Deferred income taxes are provided for the differences between the bases of assets and liabilities for financial reporting and income tax purposes. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured pursuant to the guidance set forth FASB ASC Topic 740.

Revenue Recognition

The Company derives its revenue from the sale of produced natural gas and crude oil. Revenue is recognized when production is sold to a purchaser at a fixed or determinable price, when delivery has occurred and title transferred and if the collectability of the revenue is probable. Gas revenue is recorded using the sales method. Under this method revenue is recognized based on actual volumes of gas sold to purchasers. The Company may sell more or less than their entitlement share of the volumes produced. A liability is recorded and the revenue is deferred if aggregate sales from the property exceed its share of total reserves in place. NFEI had no significant gas imbalances at February 28, 2010.

Share Based compensation

The Company accounts for share-based compensation in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718— Stock Compensation which requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards made to employees and directors on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense ratably over the requisite service periods. We estimate the fair value of each share-based award using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Black-Scholes model is complex and dependent on key estimates by management. The estimates with the greatest degree of subjective judgment are the estimated lives of the stock-based awards and the estimated volatility of our stock price.

Asset Retirement Obligations

Loss per Common Share

Basic net loss per common share is calculated by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted-average basic common shares outstanding for the respective period.

Diluted net loss per common share of stock is calculated by dividing adjusted net loss by the weighted-average diluted common shares outstanding, which includes the effect of potentially dilutive securities. Potentially dilutive securities for the diluted earnings per share calculation consist of outstanding stock options and warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock and the Series B and C Preferred Stock (defined in Note 6 – Stockholders’ Equity).

The treasury stock method is used to measure the dilutive impact of stock options, warrants and Series B and C preferred stock. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share,” when there is a loss from continuing operations, all potentially dilutive shares will be anti-dilutive. For the period ended February 28, 2010 and 2009, outstanding options and warrants of 4.3 million and 33.0 million, respectively have been excluded from the diluted share calculation and 4.9 million and 23.5 million shares (if the Series B and C Preferred Stock were converted), respectively have been excluded from the diluted share calculation (See Note 6). Accordingly, basic weighted-average shares equal dilutive weighted-average shares outstanding for fiscal years ended February 28, 2010 and 2009.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

NEW FRONTIER ENERGY, INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

February 28, 2010

New authoritative accounting guidance under FASB ASC Topic 810, “Consolidation” (“ASC Topic 810”) established accounting and reporting standards that require non-controlling interests to be reported as a component of equity along with any changes in the parent’s ownership interest. The new authoritative guidance under ASC Topic 810 became effective for the Company on March 1, 2009. As a result of adoption, NFEI has reclassified its noncontrolling interest in its combined balance sheets, from a component of liabilities to a component of equity and has also reclassified net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interest in its combined statements of operations, to below net income for all periods presented. NFEI also added a rollforward of the noncontrolling interest within its combined statements of shareholders’ equity (deficit).

The FASB aligned ASC Topic 932, with all of the aforementioned SEC requirements by issuing ASC Update 2010- 03. The new authoritative guidance became effective for the Company’s 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K and has been fully adopted by the Company as of February 28, 2010.

In January 2010 the FASB issued ASC Update 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC Update 2010-06”) that requires additional disclosures surrounding transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2, inputs and valuation techniques used to value Level 2 and 3 measurements, and push down of previously prescribed fair value disclosures to each class of asset and liability for Levels 1, 2, and 3. This new authoritative guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009. The Company will apply the new authoritative guidance in the Company’s May 31, 2010, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. ASC Update 2010-06 also requires that purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements for Level 3 measurements be disclosed. This portion of the new authoritative guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2010. The Company will apply this new authoritative guidance in the Company’s May 31, 2011, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The adoption of ASC Update 2010-06 will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts reported in the Company’s financial statements for the year ended February 28, 2009, may have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Such reclassification had no impact on net loss.

Note 2 - Acquisitions, Divestitures, and Assets Held for Sale

There were no significant acquisitions during the fiscal years ended February 28, 2010 and 2009.

Greater Green River Basin

On August 10, 2009, the Company entered into a Participation Agreement (the “Participation Agreement”) with Entek GRB LLC (“Entek”) under which Entek agreed to purchase certain assets of the Company for $1.0 million and spend up to an additional $11.5 million over three years on exploration and development within approximately 66,000 gross acres (the “Underlying Leases”) to earn up to 55% of the Company’s interest in the Underlying Leases and certain of its other assets, including its partnership interests in Slater Dome Gathering, LLLP (collectively the “Assets”). The Company and Entek also created an area of mutual interest (the “Area of Mutual Interest”) in all lands located in Routt County, Colorado, Moffatt County, Colorado, Sweetwater County, Wyoming, and Carbon County Wyoming. Pursuant to the Area of Mutual Interest, Entek shall be entitled to participate for up to 55% in any additional interest acquired within the Area of Mutual Interest by the Company and the Company shall be entitled to participate for up to 45% in any additional interest acquired within the Area of Mutual Interest.

Pursuant to the Participation Agreement, Entek has the right to participate in the exploration and development of the Underlying Leases, and the right to earn assignments of interests in the Assets in three phases. On August 10, 2009, Entek irrevocably committed to expend $3.0 million (the “Phase 1 Funds”) to earn 16.25% (the “Phase 1 Interests”) of the Company’s interest in the Assets. Between the first anniversary date and the second anniversary date of the Participation Agreement, Entek has the right but not the obligation to expend $4.0 million (the “Phase 2 Funds”) and earn an additional 16.25% (the “Phase 2 Interests”) of the Company’s interest in the Assets. Between the second anniversary date and the third anniversary date of the Participation Agreement, Entek has the right but not the obligation to expend approximately $4.5 million (the “Phase 3 Funds”) and earn an additional 18.4375% (the “Phase 3 Interests”) of the Company’s interest in the Assets. If during any Phase, Entek fails to expend an amount equal to or greater than the threshold amount for the respective Phase period, then Entek shall have the right, but not the obligation, within 10 days after the end of the Phase to deposit the difference between the Phase threshold amount and the amount expended into a segregated account in order to earn the full interest in the Phase. The amounts deposited into the segregated account shall be expended in the following work program.

Entek will have the right to become the operator after the completion of Phase 1 and the commencement of Phase 2, subject to certain regulatory and other approvals.

Pursuant to the Participation Agreement, the Company and Entek have established an operating committee that is responsible for the annual Work Program (as defined in the Participation Agreement) for each phase and the determination of a budget for each phase. The Phase 1 Funds, Phase 2 Funds and the Phase 3 Funds are to be used solely for the Work Program.

In the event that Entek elects not to participate in Phase 3, the Participation Agreement shall immediately terminate, the Company shall have no further obligation to assign to Entek any further interests in the Assets, provided that Entek shall retain any interest in the Assets from the Initial Asset Purchase, the Phase 1 Interest, the Phase 2 Interest and any portion of the Phase 3 Interests earned by it and the Area of Mutual Interest shall terminate immediately.

In February 2010, Entek completed its obligation for Phase I and earned an additional 16.25% of the Company’s interest in the Assets for an aggregate of 20.3125% of the Company’s interest in the Assets at February 28, 2010.

Pursuant to the Participation Agreement, a director and current President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company (“Depositor”), agreed to deposit $500,000 into a segregated account (the “Segregated Arbitration Funds”). In the event the Company has insufficient funds available to satisfy the Company’s share of the arbitrator’s award in the arbitration conducted pursuant to the Stull Ranch Settlement Agreement (the “Arbitrator’s Award”), then the Company shall draw upon the funds in the Stull Ranch Account to satisfy the balance of the Arbitrator’s Award, unless earlier released to Depositor pursuant to terms and conditions set forth in the Participation Agreement.

The Company and Depositor also entered into an Indemnification Agreement dated August 7, 2009, whereby the Company agreed to indemnify and reimburse Depositor if any of the Segregated Arbitration Funds are released from the segregated account.

On December 18, 2009, the Segregated Arbitration Funds were returned to Depositor after the satisfaction of the terms and conditions set forth in the Participation Agreement for the release of the Segregated Arbitration Funds.

In June 2010, the Company executed a Quit Claim Deed with the former President and CEO and paid off the remaining outstanding balance on the Steamboat Mortgage of $633,962 ($1,058 of prepaid interest was refunded and credited against the principal balance of $635,000).

Note 4 - Asset Retirement obligations

The Company recognizes an estimated liability for future costs associated with the abandonment of its oil and gas properties. A liability for the fair value of an asset retirement obligation and a corresponding increase to the carrying value of the related long-lived asset are recorded at the time a well is completed or acquired. The increase in carrying value is included in proved oil and gas properties in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company depletes the amount added to proved oil and gas property costs and recognizes expense in connection with the accretion of the discounted liability over the remaining estimated economic lives of the respective oil and gas properties. Cash paid to settle asset retirement obligations is included in the operating section of the Company’s accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows.

NEW FRONTIER ENERGY, INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

February 28, 2010

The Company’s estimated asset retirement obligation liability is based on historical experience in abandoning wells, estimated economic lives, estimates as to the cost to abandon the wells in the future, and federal and state regulatory requirements. The liability is discounted using the credit-adjusted risk-free rate estimated at the time the liability is incurred or revised. The credit-adjusted risk-free rate used to discount the Company’s abandonment liabilities is 8.0 percent. Revisions to the liability could occur due to changes in estimated abandonment costs or well economic lives, or if federal or state regulators enact new requirements regarding the abandonment of wells.

A reconciliation of the Company’s asset retirement obligation liability as of February 28, 2010 and 2009 is as follows:

	February 28,
	2010			2009
Beginning asset retirement obligation	$	290,000		$	290,000

A reconciliation of the statutory U.S. federal rate and effective rates is as follows for the fiscal years ended February 28, 2010 and 2009:

Statutory U.S. federal rate			35%
State income taxes			3%
			38%
Net operating loss			38%
			0%

The Company’s provision for income taxes differs from applying the statutory United States federal income tax rate to income before income taxes. The primary differences result from the valuation allowance and net operating losses.

The Company has a consolidated tax loss carry forward of $22,935,000, which expires through 2030. However, because of the Section 382 limitation, the portion of the Company’s total net operating loss carry forward which may be utilized through expiration is not currently known. The principle difference between the operating loss for income tax purposes and book purposes results from oil and gas property and share based compensation.

The Company terminated the Exchange Offers without acquiring any Series B Preferred Stock or Series C Preferred Stock in the Exchange Offers in November 2009.

Effective August 17, 2009, the Company granted to its chairman and current President and CEO 2,056,500 shares of the Company’s $0.001 par value common stock, valued at $637,515, and a two year option to acquire 1,250,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a price of $0.20 per share, valued at $231,647, for certain consulting services previously rendered and as a structuring fee relating to the deposit of $500,000 into a segregated account in connection with the Participation Agreement.

On or about November 11, 2009, the Company held a closing on the sale (the “Offering”) to accredited investors of an aggregate of 3,500,000 shares of the Company’s $0.001 par value Common Stock sold at a price of $0.10 per share (the “Common Stock”), effective as of November 9, 2009. The Company received a subscription for 6,500,000 shares of its Common Stock at a price of $0.10 per share that was accepted on or about November 19, 2009 from Iris Energy Holdings Limited (“Iris Energy”), an affiliate of the Company whose sole director is also a director and the current President and CEO of the Company. The Company received an aggregate of $1,000,000 in gross proceeds from the sale of the Common Stock.

On January 12, 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the issuance of 750,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to the President and CEO as compensation for services for the period from December 1, 2009 to December 1, 2010. The shares are to be issued in two tranches, with 375,000 in shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.24, valued at $90,000 to be issued on or about January 12, 2010 and 375,000 in shares of the Company’s common stock to be issued on or about June 1, 2010.

On February 16, 2010, the Company held a closing on the sale (the “Offering”) to Iris Energy of an aggregate of 8,000,000 shares of the Company’s $0.001 par value Common Stock sold a price of $0.10 per share (The “Common Stock”) for gross proceeds of $800,000.

In connection with the sale of common stock to Iris Energy at $0.10 per share, the Company recorded share-based compensation expense of $1.9 million in general and administrative expense, representing the difference between the market price of the stock on the date of the sale and the sales price of $0.10 per share of common stock.

Stock Options and Warrants

NFEI accounts for stock based compensation arrangements in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718 Compensation – Stock Compensation. ASC 718 requires measurement and recording to the financial statements of the costs of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award, recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for such award. The Company recognized share based compensation expense related to stock options and warrants of $1,586,030 and $1,592,100 during fiscal years ended February 28, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

In October 2006, the Board of Directors adopted an incentive stock option plan reserving 10,000,000 shares of the Company’s $0.001 par value common stock for issuance pursuant to the plan. The plan was adopted by shareholders on June 11, 2007. As of February 28, 2009, no options have been granted under the plan.

On November 10, 2006, the Company granted certain employees and agents of the Company an aggregate of 3,950,000 options to acquire shares of the Company’s Common Stock, which are exercisable at a price of $1.25. These stock options vest at a rate of 12.5% each fiscal quarter ending November 30, February 28, May 31 and August 31; 2,250,000 options expire November 10, 2011 and 1,700,000 options expire on November 30, 2014. The options were fully vested and amortized during fiscal year ended February 28, 2009.

On July 23, 2008, the Company granted certain employees and agents of the Company an aggregate of 4,200,000 options to acquire shares of the Company’s Common Stock, which are exercisable at a price of $1.01 (the “Non-Qualified Stock Options”) and a fair value of $0.77 per share. Options representing 1,950,000 of the Non-Qualified Stock Options vest at a rate of 12.5% each fiscal quarter ending August 31, November 30, February 28, May 31 through November 30, 2010 and expire on July 23, 2018. Options representing 2,250,000 of the Non-Qualified Stock Options have a five year life and vest quarterly over three years commencing with the quarter ending May 31, 2009.

Effective August 17, 2009, the Company granted to its chairman a two year option to acquire 1,250,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a price of $0.20 per share and a fair value of $0.19, for certain consulting services previously rendered and as a structuring fee relating to the deposit of $500,000 into a segregated account in connection with the Participation Agreement. These options vested immediately and the fair value of $231,647 is included in share based compensation expense at fiscal year-end February 28, 2010.

On November 13, 2009, the Company granted a director of the Company 2,000,000 options to acquire shares of the Company’s Common Stock. Of the options granted, 1,000,000 are exercisable at a price of $0.25 and expire on December 31, 2010 and 1,000,000 are exercisable at a price of $0.50 per share and expire on December 31, 2011. The fair value of these options was $0.22 and $0.20 per share, respectively. On or before December 31, 2010, Mr. Schafran has the right, but not the obligation, to cancel these stock options in exchange for a payment of $50,000. At the Company’s election, this payment may be made either in cash or a 2-year unsecured promissory note issued by the Company in the principal amount of $50,000 (the “Note”). If the Company elects to issue the Note to the director, the Note will accrue interest on a monthly basis at a rate equal to the 1-month London Interbank Offered Rate, with such accrued and unpaid interest to be paid on the maturity date of the Note.

On January 12, 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the issuance of 500,000 options to acquire shares of the Company’s common stock exercisable at a price of $0.30 per share and a fair value of $0.19 with an expiration date of January 25, 2015, as compensation for the President and CEO for services for the period from December 1, 2009 to December 1, 2010.

Note 7 – Fair Value Measurements

The Company fully adopted this guidance as it relates to all nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are not recognized or disclosed on a recurring basis (e.g. those measured at fair value in a business combination, the initial recognition of asset retirement obligations, and impairments of goodwill and other long-lived assets) as of March 1, 2009. The full adoption did not have a material impact on NFEI’s consolidated financial statements or its disclosures.

FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The guidance establishes market or observable inputs as the preferred sources of values, followed by assumptions based on hypothetical transactions in the absence of market inputs. The guidance establishes a hierarchy for determining the fair values of assets and liabilities, based on the significance level of the following inputs:

F-22

NEW FRONTIER ENERGY, INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

February 28, 2010

·	Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

·	Level 2 – Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable

Level 3 – Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable. On March 1, 2009, the Company applied ASC Topic 820 to all non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, including long-lived assets and assets held for sale measured at fair value under ASC Topic 360 and asset retirement obligations initially measured at fair value under FASB ASC Topic 410, “Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations” (“ASC Topic 410”). The adoption of ASC Topic 820 for non-financial assets and liabilities did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

An asset or liability subject to the fair value requirements is categorized within the hierarchy based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. NFEI’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. The Company did not have any assets or liabilities at February 28, 2010 and 2009, which were required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

Both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities are categorized within the hierarchy based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used by the Company as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the hierarchy.

Proved Oil and Gas Properties

Proved oil and gas property costs will be evaluated for impairment and reduced to fair value if the sum of the expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than net book value pursuant to ASC Topic 360. The Company will use Level 3 inputs and the income valuation technique, which converts future amounts to a single present value amount, to measure the fair value of proved properties through an application of discount rates and price forecasts selected by the Company’s management based on current market conditions which includes the following factors: estimate of future cash payments, expectations of possible variations in the amount and/or timing of cash flows, the risk premium, and nonperformance risk. The Company currently has no proved oil and gas property.

Materials Inventory

Materials inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market. The Company uses Level 2 inputs to measure the fair value of materials inventory, which is primarily comprised of tubular goods. The Company uses third party market quotes and compares the quotes to the book value of the materials inventory. If the book value exceeds the quoted market price, the Company reduces the book value to the market price. The considered factors result in an estimated exit-price that management believes provides a reasonable and consistent methodology for valuing materials inventory.

Asset Retirement Obligations

The Company estimates asset retirement obligations pursuant to the provisions of ASC Topic 410. The income valuation technique is utilized by the Company to determine the fair value of the liability at the point of inception by applying a credit-adjusted risk-free rate, which takes into account the Company’s credit risk, the time value of money, and the current economic state, to the undiscounted expected abandonment cash flows. Given the unobservable nature of the inputs, the initial measurement of the asset retirement obligation liability is deemed to use Level 3 inputs.

Note 12 - Subsequent Events

Effective May 11, 2010, the Company granted to its chief financial officer the option to acquire 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.50 per share. These options vest on December 1, 2010, and expire on December 31, 2011.

In connection with the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Company and Carrizo also entered into an AMI Agreement whereby the Company and Carrizo agreed to create an area of mutual interest in all governmental sections within which the Company owns Leases as of June 4, 2010 (subject to certain exclusions)(the “AMI Territory”). Pursuant to the AMI Agreement, the Company and Carrizo granted the other party the option acquire its proportionate interest, (33 1/3 in the case of the Company and 66 2/3 in the case of Carrizo) in any oil and gas leases and other interests in the AMI Territory.

On September 1, 2010, NFEI entered into a Joint Exploration Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Yuma Exploration and Production Company, Inc. (“Yuma”), whereby NFEI will participate in the shooting, processing and interpretation of a 3-D seismic survey, the generation of prospects, the acquisition of leases, and the exploration, development and production of oil and gas prosects generated from the 3-D seismic in the Calcasieu and Jefferson Davis Parishes in Louisiana (Project Area”).

Upon execution of the Agreement, the Company made an initial payment of approximately $680,000 to Yuma.

Note 13 – Financial Statement Restatement and change in accounting principle

Subsequent to the Company issuing its quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for each of the three quarters during fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, management determined that it did not appropriately apply the provisions of ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”) in its analysis of the conversion feature embedded in the Series B Preferred and Series C Preferred stock, specifically as it relates to the application of EITF 07-05: Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) is indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock in the application of ASC 815. The Company adopted EITF 07-05 on March 1, 2009. Upon its effectiveness, contracts (warrants, conversion features in debt, etc) that embody or embodied full-ratchet or reset provisions (that is, the strike, exercise or conversion prices adjust to pricing in subsequent sales or issuances of the Company’s common stock) no longer meet the definition of Indexed to a Company’s Own Stock and, accordingly, do not meet the exemptions for equity classification provided in ASC 815-15. The Series B and Series C Preferred stock contain an anti-dilution provision which provides for conversion price adjustments (“down round protection”), which requires the embedded conversion feature to be bifurcated and presented separately as a liability on the balance sheet.

The adoption of EITF 07-05 represents a change in accounting principle and the Company recorded a onetime adjustment to beginning accumulated deficit and additional paid in capital of $25,000,000.

As a result of this oversight the financial statement items within the previously issued 10-Q’s for fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, should have reflected the following non-cash adjustments;

The estimated fair values of the derivative liabilities embedded within the Series B and Series C preferred shares were determined at each reporting period using a monte carlo option pricing model with Level 3 inputs. The following table sets forth, by level within the fair value hierarchy, the Company’s financial liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of each reporting period during fiscal year ended February 28, 2010. There were no financial assets or liabilities that required fair value measurement on a recurring basis during fiscal year ended February 28, 2009.

Recent SEC and FASB Guidance

In December 2008 the SEC published the final rules and interpretations updating its oil and gas reporting requirements. The Company adopted the rules effective February 28, 2010, and the rule changes, including those related to pricing and technology, are included in the Company’s reserve estimates.

In January 2010 the FASB aligned ASC Topic 932, with the aforementioned SEC requirements. Please refer to the section entitled Recently Issued Accounting Standards under Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for additional discussion regarding both adoptions.

Estimated Oil and Gas Reserve Quantities

Proved oil and gas reserves are the estimated quantities of crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids, which, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically producible – from a given date forward, from known reservoirs, and under existing economic conditions, operating methods, and government regulations – prior to the time at which contracts providing the right to operate expire, unless evidence indicates that renewal is reasonably certain, regardless of whether deterministic or probabilistic methods are used for the estimation. Existing economic conditions include prices and costs at which economic producibility from a reservoir is to be determined, and the price to be used is the average price during the 12-month period prior to the ending date of the period covered by the report, determined as an unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month price for each month within such period, unless prices are defined by contractual arrangements, excluding escalations based upon future conditions. With respect to reserves as of dates prior to February 28, 2010, the applicable SEC definition of proved reserves was the estimated quantities of crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids which geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions, meaning prices and costs as of the date the estimate is made.

At February 28, 2010 and 2009, there were no recoverable reserves from the Company’s wells at the existing economic and operating conditions.

Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flow

The Company follows the guidelines prescribed in ASC Topic 932 for computing a standardized measure of future net cash flows and changes therein relating to estimated proved reserves. Future cash inflows and future production and development costs are determined by applying prices and costs, including transportation, quality, and basis differentials, to the year-end estimated quantities of oil and gas to be produced in the future. Each property the Company operates is also charged with field-level overhead in the estimated reserve calculation. Estimated future income taxes are computed using the current statutory income tax rates, including consideration for estimated future statutory depletion. The resulting future net cash flows are reduced to present value amounts by applying a ten percent annual discount factor.

Future operating costs are determined based on estimates of expenditures to be incurred in developing and producing the proved oil and gas reserves in place at the end of the period using year-end costs and assuming continuation of existing economic conditions, plus Company overhead incurred by the central administrative office attributable to operating activities. The Company had no proved reserves at February 28, 2010 and 2009.

Standardized measure of cash flows:

Principal changes in the Standardized Measure for the years ended February 28, 2010 and 2009, are summarized as follows:

	February 28,					February 29,
	2010		2009			2008
