UNAUDITED
PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
On March
2, 2010 (the “Closing Date”), we entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the
“SPA”) with Avante Petroleum S.A., a Luxembourg public limited liability company
(“Avante”). Pursuant to the terms of the SPA, we acquired all of the
outstanding capital stock (the “Acquisition”) of Avante’s wholly owned
subsidiary, Avante Colombia S.à.r.l., a Luxembourg private limited liability
company (“Avante Colombia”), in exchange for 10,285,819 newly issued shares of
our common stock (the “Purchase Price Shares”). A portion of the
consideration (1,500,000 shares) is held in escrow to secure the Sellers’
indemnification obligations under the SPA.
The
following unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet combines balance sheet data
for La Cortez Energy, Inc. (“La Cortez”) and Avante Colombia as of
December 31, 2009 as if the acquisition had been completed on
December 31, 2009. The following unaudited pro forma combined statement of
operations combines the statements of operations data for La Cortez and Avante
Colombia for the year ended December 31, 2009 as if the acquisition had
been completed on January 1, 2009. The unaudited pro forma financial
information is based upon the historical consolidated financial statements of La
Cortez and the historical consolidated financial statements of Avante Colombia
and the assumptions, estimates and adjustments which are described in the notes
to the unaudited pro forma combined financial statements. The assumptions,
estimates and adjustments are preliminary and have been made solely for purposes
of developing such pro forma information. The unaudited pro forma combined
financial statements include adjustments that have been made to reflect the
preliminary purchase price allocations. These preliminary allocations represent
estimates made for purposes of these pro forma financial statements and are
subject to change upon a final determination of fair value.
The
unaudited pro forma combined financial statements are presented for illustrative
purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the consolidated financial
position or consolidated results of operations of La Cortez that would have been
reported had the acquisitions occurred on the dates indicated, nor do they
represent a forecast of the consolidated financial position of La Cortez at any
future date or the consolidated results of operations for any future period.
Furthermore, no effect has been given in the unaudited pro forma combined
statements of operations for synergistic benefits or cost savings that may be
realized through the combination of La Cortez and Avante Colombia or costs that
may be incurred in integrating La Cortez and Avante Colombia. The unaudited pro
forma combined financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
audited consolidated financial statements and related notes, together with
management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of
operations, contained in La Cortez’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period
ended December 31, 2009, which is on file with the SEC, and the historical
consolidated financial statements and related notes of Avante Colombia included
in this Form 8-K/A.

Basis of Pro Forma Presentation
The pro
forma data is presented for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily
indicative of the operating results that would have occurred had the transaction
been consummated as of January 1, 2009. Pro forma adjustments reflect only
those adjustments which are factually determinable and do not include the impact
of potential contingencies, which will not be known until the resolution of the
contingency. The preliminary purchase consideration and purchase price
allocation has been presented and does not necessarily represent the final
purchase price allocation. The preliminary allocations of the purchase
consideration to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed
herein were based upon preliminary valuations and our estimates and assumptions
are still subject to change.

The
purchase price of the assets acquired from Avante Colombia was 10,285,819 shares

price and the purchase price accounting is based upon preliminary estimates of
the assets and liabilities acquired on March 2, 2010 in accordance with ASC

Combinations.
