EXPLANATORY NOTE
 
This Form 10-Q/A amends the Form 10-Q for the nine months ended November 30, 2009 filed by Buckingham Exploration Inc. (“we”, “us”, “our” or the “Company”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 19, 2010 and restates its unaudited financial statements for the six months ended November 30, 2009, the notes thereto and related disclosure, to reflect an adjustment to the accounting and disclosure of the settlement of the convertible debentures issued by us on September 24, 2008. As a result, the unaudited interim financial statements included in the originally filed Form 10-Q should not be relied upon.
 
In addition, this Form 10-Q/A amends the originally filed Form 10-Q to correct an inadvertent error relating to the company’s planned expenses and certain typographical errors. These errors were discovered during the course of the review of the Company’s disclosure in connection with the recent restatements of its financial statements as disclosed in the Form 8-K filed on September 21, 2010.
 
On September 24, 2008, we entered into secured convertible debenture purchase agreements with three investors pursuant to which we sold three convertible debentures to the investors in the aggregate amount of $500,000 and we also granted to them warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 12,500 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $40 per share exercisable for a period of 2 years. The debentures accrued interest at a rate of 10% per annum and were convertible into shares of our common stock at a price of $20 per share. As collateral security, we granted the investors a security interest in all the right, title and interest of all of our present and future assets.
 
On August 27, 2009, we entered into a settlement agreement with one of the debentureholders, Regal Uranium Inc. (“Regal”), subsequent to an event of default under the terms of the debentures, to settle the outstanding debenture in the amount of $150,000 plus accrued interest. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, we agreed to transfer all of our interest in our wholly-owned subsidiaries, Hyde Park Uranium Inc. and Alpha Beta Uranium Inc., to Regal along with all of our property and equipment and intellectual property rights related to these properties. Regal agreed to pay us $50,000 and had the other two debentures in the aggregate amount of $350,000 assigned to it.
 
Regal should have been considered a related party as the sole director and officer of the Company was a director of Regal and owned 15% of the outstanding common stock of Regal at the time of the transaction. Accordingly, a gain on discontinued operations from the debenture settlement of $453,987 should have been recorded as a capital transaction in additional paid-in capital and the unaudited financial statements and the notes thereto included herein have been restated to reflect this adjustment and disclosure of the related party transaction, and corresponding amendments have been made to the discussion under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” relating to the debentures.
 
On June 5, 2009, we entered into agreements with two debenture holders, Regal and Joerg Gruber, to issue a total of 2,367,400 restricted common shares at $0.01 per share in full consideration of $23,674 in interest accrued up to May 31, 2009. The settlement of accrued interest was recorded to equity as common stock subscribed. The shares have not yet been issued.
 
Accordingly, the interest payable of $23,674 on the convertible debt to Regal and Joerg Gruber should have been treated as a liability, and the unaudited financial statements and the notes thereto included herein have been restated to reflect this adjustment and disclosure of the related party transaction, and corresponding amendments have been made to the discussion under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” relating to the liabilities.
 
Except as stated above, no other information has been changed from the originally filed Form 10-Q and this Form 10-Q/A does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the Form 10-Q.
 
The Company has included new certifications of its sole officer pursuant to Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act with this Form 10-Q/A.

1.  Nature of Operations and Continuance of Business
 
Buckingham Exploration Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 4, 2006. The Company is an Exploration Stage Company, as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 915, Development Stage Entities.  The Company’s principal business is the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties. The Company does not presently have any mineral properties.
 
These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has never generated revenues since inception and has never paid any dividends and is unlikely to pay dividends or generate earnings in the immediate or foreseeable future. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, and the attainment of profitable operations. As at November 30, 2009, the Company has a working capital deficit of $271,259 and an accumulated deficit of $7,219,523. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise sufficient funds to pay the expected operating expenses for the next twelve months.
 
The Company currently trades on the OTCBB under the symbol ‘BUKX.OB’.
 
2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
(a)  Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
 
These financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and are expressed in US dollars.  Until August 27, 2009, the financial statements included the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Hyde Park Uranium, Inc. and Alpha Beta Uranium, Inc. The Company entered into an agreement dated August 27, 2009 for the settlement of the outstanding convertible debenture described in Note 9. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company agreed to transfer all of the issued and outstanding shares of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Hyde Park Uranium, Inc and Alpha Beta Uranium, Inc., and all of the property and equipment and mineral properties of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries to Regal to settle the convertible debenture. The Company’s fiscal year-end is May 31.
 
(b)  Interim Financial Statements
 
The interim unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Form 10-Q. They do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. Therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended May 31, 2009, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on September 15, 2009 with the SEC.
 
The financial statements included herein are unaudited; however, they contain all normal recurring accruals and adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position at November 30, 2009 and 2008, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the six months ended November 30, 2009 and 2008. The results of operations for the six months ended November 30, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for future quarters or the full year.

2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
 
(c)  Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to long lived assets, stock-based compensation expense, secured convertible debentures and deferred income tax asset allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.
 
(d)  Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.
 
(e)  Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment comprised of office furniture and motor vehicles are recorded at cost and amortized using the declining balance method at 25% per annum.
 
(f)  Basic and Diluted Net Earnings (Loss) Per Share
 
The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including stock options, using the treasury stock method, and convertible preferred stock, using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. A total of 5,030,000 (2008 – 14,380,000) outstanding warrants and 3,025,000 (2008 – 3,025,000) options outstanding issuable have been excluded from the three and six months ended November 30, 2009 and 2008 calculation as they would be anti-dilutive.
 
Components of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and six month period ended November 30, 2009 and 2008 were as follows:

2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
 
(g)  Comprehensive Loss
 
ASC 220, Comprehensive Income establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive loss and its components in the financial statements. As at November 30, 2009 and 2008, the Company has no items that represent a comprehensive loss and, therefore, has not included a schedule of comprehensive loss in the financial statements.
 
(h)  Mineral Property Costs
 
The Company has been in the exploration stage since its inception on April 4, 2006 and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations. It is primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties. Mineral property exploration costs are expensed as incurred. Mineral property acquisition costs are initially capitalized. The Company assesses the carrying costs for impairment under ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment at each fiscal quarter end. When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, the costs then incurred to develop such property, are capitalized. Such costs will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve. If mineral properties are subsequently abandoned or impaired, any capitalized costs will be charged to operations.
 
(i)  Asset Retirement Obligations
 
The Company records the fair value of an asset retirement obligation as a liability for closure and removal costs associated with the legal obligations upon retirement or removal of any tangible long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development and/or normal use of assets in accordance with ASC 440 Asset Retirement and Environmental  Obligations. The initial recognition of any liability will be capitalized as part of the asset cost and depreciated over its estimated useful life. To date, the Company has not incurred any asset retirement obligations.
 
(j)  Long-Lived Assets
 
In accordance with ASC 360, Property Plant and Equipment the Company tests long-lived assets or asset groups for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the asset; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed significantly before the end of its estimated useful life. Recoverability is assessed based on the carrying amount of the asset and its fair value which is generally determined based on the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and the eventual disposal of the asset, as well as specific appraisal in certain instances. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds fair value.

(k)  Financial Instruments
 
ASC 825, Financial Instruments requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 825 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 825 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:
 
Level 1
 
Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
 
Level 2
 
Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.
 
Level 3
 
Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
 
The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash, receivables, and accounts payable.
 
Pursuant to ASC 825, the fair value of our cash equivalents is determined based on “Level 1” inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The Company believes that the recorded values of all of the other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective maturity dates or durations.
 
(l)  Income Taxes
 
Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. The Company has adopted ASC 740, Income Taxes as of its inception. Pursuant to ASC 740 the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. The potential benefits of net operating losses have not been recognized in these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years.
 
(m)  Stock-Based Compensation
 
The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Based Compensation, using the fair value method. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. Equity instruments issued to employees and the cost of the services received as consideration are measured and recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued. During the six month period ended November 30, 2009, the Company recorded stock-based compensation of $nil (2008 - $91,484) as general and administrative expense.
 
(n)  Foreign Currency Translation
 
The Company’s functional and reporting currency is the United States dollar. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated in accordance with ASC 740 Foreign Currency Translation Matters, using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Gains and losses arising on settlement of foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are included in the determination of income. Foreign currency transactions are primarily undertaken in Canadian dollars. The Company has not, to the date of these financials statements, entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

(o)  Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In May 2009, FASB issued ASC 855, Subsequent Events, which establishes general standards of for the evaluation, recognition and disclosure of events and transactions that occur after the balance sheet date. Although there is new terminology, the standard is based on the same principles as those that currently exist in the auditing standards. The standard, which includes a new required disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events, is effective for interim or annual periods ending after June 15, 2009.  The adoption of ASC 855 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Refer to Note 12.
 
In June 2009, the FASB issued guidance now codified as ASC 105, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles as the single source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, aside from those issued by the SEC. ASC 105 does not change current U.S. GAAP, but is intended to simplify user access to all authoritative U.S. GAAP by providing all authoritative literature related to a particular topic in one place.  The adoption of ASC 105 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements, but did eliminate all references to pre-codification standards
 
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
 
(p)  Reclassification
 
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period’s financial statements to conform to the current period’s presentation.
 
3.  Mineral Properties
 
On May 9, 2007, the Company entered into a purchase agreement with Pikes Peak Resources, Inc. (“Pikes”), a British Columbia corporation, for the acquisition of 29 unpatented mining claims located in Teller County, Colorado. The purchase consideration for the claims was $1,000,000, payable as to $500,000 cash and the issuance of 5,000,000 common shares of the Company with a fair value of $500,000. Pikes will receive net returns royalty of 2% of the proceeds of minerals mined and sold from the claims. The Company reimbursed $3,700 to Pikes for the costs of locating the claims. The Company has an option to purchase the royalty for $1,000,000 as adjusted for inflation. The Company has also agreed to buy back shares of common stock from Pikes at prevailing market price up to $150,000 for any taxes payable by Pikes as a result of the transaction. Pikes shall also have the option to repurchase the claims upon abandonment by the Company. As it has not been determined whether there are proven or probable reserves on the property, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $1,100,000 of mineral property acquisition costs for the year ended May 31, 2007. During the six month period ended November 30, 2009, the Company transferred all mineral properties to Regal Uranium Inc. pursuant to the Settlement and Execution Agreement (Note 9).
 
On July 27, 2007, the Company entered into an exploration agreement with an option to purchase a property known as High Park Trails Ranch in Teller County, Colorado. The property adjoins the Company’s High Park Uranium Project. Pursuant to the terms of the option agreement, the Company paid an option payment of $100,000 on July 27, 2007 to acquire the surface and mineral estates over 265 acres, with a further payment of $2,900,000 at the end of a twelve month period to exercise the non-exclusive option to purchase the property. During the option period, the Company has full access to the property to conduct an exploration and drill program to ascertain whether it wishes to exercise its option. The Company must also pay a production royalty of approximately 5% of the net returns generated by the Company from the exploration of the property. As it has not been determined whether there are proven or probable reserves on the property, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $100,000 of mineral property acquisition costs for the year ended May 31, 2008. During the year ended May 31, 2009, the Company decided not to pursue any further exploration of the property.

As at November 30, 2007, the Company had made payments of $1,375,000 relating to the acquisition of the mining claims. On January 21, 2008, the agreement was amended to acquire 419 unpatented lode mining claims in exchange for an additional $210,000 and the issuance of 3,000,000 common shares of the Company with a fair value of $1,500,000. As it has not been determined whether there are proven or probable reserves on the property, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $3,085,000 of mineral property acquisition costs for the year ended May 31, 2008. During the six month period ended November 30, 2009, the Company transferred all mineral properties to Regal Uranium Inc. pursuant to the Settlement and Execution Agreement (Note 9).
 
4.  Related Party Transactions

On September 24, 2008, the Company entered into three secured convertible debenture purchase agreements with three investors providing for the sale of convertible debentures (the “Debentures”) in the aggregate principal amount of $500,000, and 5,000,000 warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, exercisable at a price of $0.10 per share until September 24, 2010.
 
The outstanding principal and accrued interest is payable by the Company in 24 equal monthly installments commencing September 24, 2009. Interest on the Debentures accrues monthly at a rate of 10% per annum.  The investors may convert, at any time, any amount outstanding under the Debentures into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion price of $0.05 per share.
 
In accordance with ASC 470-20, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options, the Company has allocated the proceeds of issuance between the Debentures and the Warrants based on their relative fair values. Accordingly, the Company recognized the fair value of the Warrants of $111,556 as additional paid-in capital and an equivalent discount against the Debentures. The Company will recognize interest expense over the term of the Debentures of $111,556 resulting from the difference between the stated value and carrying value at the date of issuance. The carrying value of the Debentures will be accreted to the face value of $500,000 to maturity.
 
The Debentures are secured by a security interests in all current and future assets of the Company and its subsidiaries.

10.  Commitments
 
(a) 
On May 7, 2007, the Company entered into a management agreement (the “Agreement”) with the President of the Company for management services.  Per the Agreement, the Company is required to pay $10,000 per month, commencing May 7, 2007, and will remain in effect on month-to-month basis until terminated by either party giving 14 days notice. The agreement was amended on April 30, 2008 to increase the monthly fee to $20,000 effective March 15, 2008. The agreement was amended on May 6, 2009 to reduce the monthly fee to $10,000 effective December 1, 2008.
 
(b) 
On May 5, 2008 the Company entered into an agreement with a public relations consultant for a 12 month period commencing on May 5, 2008. The services to be provided pursuant to the agreement include, but are not limited to, the preparation and dissemination of press releases and other communications materials to increase investor awareness of the Company in Europe and North America. In consideration of the services to be provided, the Company is obligated to pay $15,000 (paid) and 250,000 restricted common shares of the Company (issued) and an additional $85,000 by July 5, 2008, which has not been paid due to dispute over non performance of the contractual obligations of the consultant. In October 2008, the Company issued a written notice of rescission of the agreement and cancellation of the 250,000 restricted common shares due to the failure of the public relations consultant to provide services in accordance of the agreement.
 
11.  Restatement
 
On August 27, 2009, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with one of the debentureholders, Regal Uranium Inc. (“Regal”) subsequent to an event of default under the terms of the debentures, to settle the outstanding debenture in the amount of $150,000 plus accrued interest (Note 6). Under the terms of the settlement agreement, the Company agreed to transfer all of its interest in its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Hyde Park Uranium Inc. and Alpha Beta Uranium Inc., to Regal along with all of its property and equipment and intellectual property rights related to these properties. Regal agreed to pay $50,000 and had the other two debentures in the aggregate amount of $350,000 assigned to it.
 
Regal should have been considered a related party as the sole director and officer of the Company was a director of Regal and owned 15% of the outstanding common stock of Regal at the time of the transaction. Accordingly, a gain on discontinued operations of $453,987 should have been recorded as a capital transaction in additional paid in capital.

11.  Restatement (continued)
 
On June 5, 2009, the Company entered into agreements with two debenture holders to issue a total of 2,367,400 restricted common shares at $0.01 per share in full consideration of $23,674 in interest accrued up to May 31, 2009. The settlement of accrued interest was recorded to equity as common stock subscribed. The shares have not yet been issued. Accordingly, the interest payable of $23,674 on the convertible debt should have been treated as a liability.
 
As a result, the Company is restating the November 30, 2009 interim financial statements filed on Form 10-Q. The effect of the restatement is to reclassify the gain on disposal of discontinued operations of $453,987 from net loss to additional paid-in capital, and to reclassify the settlement of $23,674 in accrued interest from common stock subscribed to accounts payable and accrued liabilities.
 
The following tables illustrate the effects of the restatement on the November 30, 2009 financial statements:

Forward Looking Statements
 
This quarterly report on Form 10-Q/A contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology including "could", "may", "will", "should", "expect", "plan", "anticipate", "believe", "estimate", "predict", "potential" and the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions. Actual events or results may differ materially.
 
While these forward-looking statements, and any assumptions upon which they are based, are made in good faith and reflect our current judgment regarding the direction of our business, actual results will almost always vary, sometimes materially, from any estimates, predictions, projections, assumptions or other future performance suggested in this report.
 
Business Overview
 
Buckingham Exploration Inc. (“Buckingham”, “we” or “our”) was incorporated as a Nevada company on April 4, 2006. We have been engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties since our inception. We sold our two wholly owned subsidiaries, Hyde Park Uranium Inc. Alpha Beta Uranium Inc., Colorado corporations through which we acquired mineral claims in the state of Colorado. Currently we are looking for other mineral properties to acquire. Our common stock became eligible for trading on the OTC Bulletin Board on May 8, 2007 under the ticker symbol “BUKX.OB”.
 
Uncertainties
 
We are currently reviewing numerous properties in a search for suitable acquisition targets to initiate an exploration program. However, there is no assurance that we will be successful in locating prospective mining claims or that any of these claims will contain a commercially viable ore body. We anticipate that we will require additional financing in order to pursue full exploration of these claims. We do not have sufficient financing to undertake acquisition and exploration of new mineral claims at present and there is no assurance that we will be able to obtain the necessary financing.
 
There is no assurance that a commercially viable mineral deposit exists on any of our future mineral properties. Further exploration beyond the scope of our planned exploration activities will be required before a final evaluation as to the economic feasibility of mining of any of our properties is determined. There is no assurance that further exploration will result in a final evaluation that a commercially viable mineral deposit exists on any of our mineral properties.

Since our inception on April 4, 2006 to November 30, 2009, we have not generated any revenue and we have incurred an accumulated deficit of $7,219,523. We may not generate significant revenues even if our exploration program indicates that mineral deposits may exist on our future mineral claims. We anticipate that we will incur substantial losses over the next two years.
 
During the three months ended November 30, 2009, we incurred a net loss of $89,511 compared to our net loss of $192,502 for the three months ended November 30, 2008. We did not record any income (loss) per share for the three months ended November 30, 2009 nor for the three months ended November 30, 2008. We generated a net loss of $157,273 or a net loss of $0.00 per share for the six month period ended November 30, 2009, as compared to a net loss of $431,834 or a net loss of $0.01 per share for the comparable period of 2008.
 
Our total expenses for the three months ended November 30, 2009 were $89,053 and consisted of $33,933 in general and administrative expenses, and $55,120 in professional fees.  By comparison, during the three month period ended November 30, 2008, we incurred total expenses of $123,999, consisting of $105,416 in general and administrative expenses, and $18,583 in professional fees.
 
For the six month period ended November 30, 3009, out total expenses came to $132,007 and consisted of $64,370 in general and administrative expenses and $67,637 in professional fees. Our total expenses for the six months ended November 30, 2008 were $296,432. They consisted of $243,855 in general and administrative expenses and $52,577 in professional fees.
 
The decrease in total expenses was mainly due to reduced overhead expenses as a result of curtailing our exploration activities in response to a lack of financial resources.
 
Net loss from discontinued operations came to $4,320 for the six months ended November 30, 2009 and consisted of $1,087 in amortization and $3,233 in general and administrative expenses.
 
From April 4, 2006 (Date of Inception) to August 31, 2009 we accumulated total operating loss from discontinued operations of $5,030,489 including $22,525 in amortization cost, $67,478 in general and administrative expenses, $4,530,126 in impairment of mineral property costs, $10,382 in professional fees, $385,920 in mineral property costs, and $14,058 in loss on disposal of property and equipment.
 
Our professional fees consisted primarily of legal, accounting and auditing fees. Our general and administrative expenses include management fees, consulting fees, foreign exchange loss, transfer agent and filing fees, office supplies, travel expenses, rent, communication expenses (cellular, internet, fax and telephone), bank changes, advertising and promotion costs, office maintenance, courier and postage costs and office equipment.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
As of November 30, 2009 we have a cash of $2,618, receivables of $4,090 and no prepaid expenses for total current assets of $6,708. Our working capital deficit is $271,259. Our deficit accumulated during the exploration stage was $7,219,523 and was funded through equity financing and shareholder loans. During the three months ended November 30, 2009, we received an advance of $6,900 from related parties. Since our inception on April 4, 2006 to August 31, 2009 we have raised net proceeds of $3,661,575 from the sale of our common stock.
 
During the six months ended November 30, 2009, we used net cash of $40,524 in operating activities, received net cash of $32,970 from investing activities and received net cash of $6,900 from financing activities.  This compares to $353,373 of net cash used in operating activities and $342,404 net cash received from financing activities for the same period in 2008. We did not use any cash in investing activities during the six month period ended November 30, 2009 as our financial resources were limited.
 
From April 4, 2006 (Date of Inception) to November 30, 2009 we used net cash of $1,747,360 in operating activities, $2,251,892 in investing activities, and received net cash of $4,001,870 from financing activities.
 
As of November 30, 2009, our cash of $2,618 is insufficient to cover our current monthly burn rate.
 
We estimate our planned expenses for the next year (from December 1, 2009), excluding property acquisition costs, to be approximately $800,000, as summarized in the table below.
 
Description of Expense
 
Amount
 
Exploration of mineral properties to be acquired
  $ 100,000  
Surveying and evaluation of reserves on the properties to be acquired
  $ 100,000  
Professional Fees
  $ 100,000  
General and Administrative Expenses
  $ 500,000  
Total
  $ 800,000  
 
Our general and administrative expenses for the year will consist of advertising and promotion expenses, consulting fees, management fees, interest and bank charges, office expenses, motor vehicle expenses, rent, utility fees, travel and entertainment expenses, and transfer agent and filing fees.  All of these fees will relate to our day to day business operations and business development activities.
 
Our professional fees will include accounting, audit and legal fees relating primarily to our regulatory filings throughout the year.
 
As at November 30, 2009, we had nominal cash of $2,618 in the bank.  Based on our planned expenditures, we require a minimum of $800,000 to proceed with our plan of operations over the next twelve months (beginning December 1, 2009).  If we achieve less than the full amount of financing that we require we will scale back our planned exploration activities and our day to day operations in order to reduce our exploration expenses and general and administrative expenses to a level appropriate to the financial resources available to us.
 
On September 24, 2008, we entered into convertible debenture purchase agreements and granted 5,000,000 warrants to purchase one share each of Buckingham’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.10 per share for a period of 2 years. The total amount invested in Buckingham was $500,000. The principal and accrued interest of the convertible debentures could be converted into common stock at the holder’s option at a price of $0.05 per share any time on or after October 25, 2008 until the full amount owed under each convertible debenture is repaid. Buckingham had reserved a minimum of 5,000,000 common shares pursuant to the holders’ options to have the convertible debentures repaid in shares.
 
Buckingham had the option, for a period of one year after September 24, 2008, of repaying any amounts borrowed and re-borrowing any amounts repaid under the convertible debentures without penalty or premium. The outstanding principal of the convertible debentures and interest accrued thereon at a rate of 10% per annum is repayable in equal monthly installments over a 24 month period starting one year after September 24, 2008. The convertible debentures carried a security interest in all current and future assets of Buckingham and its subsidiaries.
 
The debenture was secured by a security interesting all our current and future assets and assets of our subsidiaries.
 
On June 5, 2009, we entered into agreements with debenture holders to issue 3,382,000 restricted common shares to settle interest accrued up to May 31, 2009 in the amount of $33,820. We issued 1,014,600 restricted common shares to one of the debenture holders.
 
During the three months ended August 31, 2009, we defaulted on the convertible debentures and received a notice of default under the terms of the debenture with Regal Uranium Inc. We subsequently entered in an Execution and Settlement Agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) dated August 27, 2009 with Regal Uranium Inc. for the settlement of the outstanding convertible debenture in the amount of $150,000 plus accrued interest. In accordance with the Settlement Agreement, we agreed to transfer all of our issued and outstanding shares in our wholly-owned subsidiaries, Hyde Park Uranium Inc. and Alpha Beta Uranium, Inc. and all of our property and equipment and our mineral properties to Regal Uranium Inc.

Future Financings
 
We have no revenues, have achieved losses since inception, and rely upon the sale of our securities to fund operations. We will not generate revenues even if our exploration program indicates that a mineral deposit may exist on our future mineral claims. Accordingly, we will be dependent on future additional financing in order to acquire new prospective claims, maintain our operations and continue our exploration activities.
 
We will require additional financing in order to proceed with acquisition and the exploration of  mineral properties. We plan to complete private placement sales of our common stock in order to raise the funds necessary to pursue our plan of operations. Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to our existing shareholders. We currently do not have any arrangements in place for the completion of any private placement financings and there is no assurance that we will be successful in completing any private placement financings.
 
If we are unable to achieve the necessary additional financing, then we plan to reduce the amounts that we spend on our prospective acquisitions, exploration activities and administrative expenses in order to stay within the amount of capital resources that are available to us. Specifically, we anticipate that we would defer drilling programs and certain acquisitions pending our obtaining additional financing.
 
Product Research and Development
 
We do not anticipate spending any material amounts in connection with product research and development activities during the next twelve months.
 
Acquisition of Plant and Equipment and Other Assets
 
We do not anticipate the sale or acquisition of plant or equipment during the next twelve months. We are currently actively reviewing potential mineral properties to acquire. Any acquisitions are subject to obtaining additional financing.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.
 
Inflation
 
The amounts presented in the financial statements do not provide for the effect of inflation on our operations or financial position. The net operating losses shown would be greater than reported if the effects of inflation were reflected either by charging operations with amounts that represent replacement costs or by using other inflation adjustments.

Critical Accounting Policies
 
Our financial statements are impacted by the accounting policies used and the estimates and assumptions made by management during their preparation. A complete summary of the significant accounting policies is included in note 2 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements for the year ended May 31, 2009 filed in an Annual Report on Form 10-K. We have identified below the accounting policies that are of particular importance in the presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows, and which require the application of significant judgment by management.
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to long lived assets, stock-based compensation expense, secured convertible debentures and deferred income tax asset allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.
 
Mineral Property Costs
 
The Company has been in the exploration stage since its inception on April 4, 2006 and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations. It is primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties. Mineral property exploration costs are expensed as incurred. Mineral property acquisition costs are initially capitalized. The Company assesses the carrying costs for impairment under ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment at each fiscal quarter end. When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, the costs then incurred to develop such property, are capitalized. Such costs will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve. If mineral properties are subsequently abandoned or impaired, any capitalized costs will be charged to operations.
 
Stock-Based Compensation
 
The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Based Compensation, using the fair value method. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. Equity instruments issued to employees and the cost of the services received as consideration are measured and recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued. During the six month period ended November 30, 2009, the Company recorded stock-based compensation of $nil (2008 - $91,484) as general and administrative expense.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), that are designed to ensure that the information we are required to disclose in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report.  Based on the evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures, and on the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the period ended May 31, 2009, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

Changes in internal control
 
On September 25, 2009, we implemented an audit committee comprised of our sole director, C. Robin Relph and adopted an audit committee charter governing the duties of the audit committee, included as an exhibit under Item 6 of this form.

We have not been able to implement any other recommended changes to control over financial reporting listed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended May 31, 2009.  As such, there were no further changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act) during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

During the six months ended November 30, 2009, we defaulted on three secured convertible debenture purchase agreements, entered into on September 24, 2008 with three investors.
