SAGEBRUSH GOLD LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Information
 
The following unaudited pro forma combined financial information is presented to illustrate the estimated effects of our acquisition of Continental Resources Group, Inc. (“Continental”). On July 22, 2011, the Company, Continental Resources Acquisition Sub, Inc., the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary (“Acquisition Sub”), and Continental, entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) and closed the Asset Sale, as defined, pursuant to which Acquisition Sub purchased substantially all of the assets of Continental (the “Asset Sale”) in consideration for (i) shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Shares”) which shall be equal to eight Shares for every 10 shares of Continental’s common stock outstanding; (ii) the assumption of the outstanding warrants to purchase shares of Continental’s common stock such that the Company shall deliver to the holders of Continental’s warrants, warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Warrants”) which shall be equal to one Warrant to purchase eight shares of the Company’s common stock for every warrant to purchase ten shares Continental’s common stock outstanding at an exercise price equal to such amount as is required pursuant to the terms of the outstanding warrants, and (iii)  the assumption of Continental’s 2010 Equity Incentive Plan and all options granted and issued thereunder such that the Company shall deliver to Continental’s option holders, options (the “Options”) to purchase an aggregate of such number of shares of the Company’s common stock issuable under the Company’s equity incentive plan which shall be equal to one option to purchase eight shares of the Company’s common stock for every option to purchase 10 shares of Continental’s common stock outstanding with a strike price equal to such amount as is required pursuant to the terms of the outstanding option.  Upon the closing of the Asset Sale, Acquisition Sub assumed the Assumed Liabilities (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) of Continental. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company purchased from Continental substantially all of Continental’s assets, including, but not limited to, 100% of the outstanding shares of common stock of Continental’s wholly-owned subsidiaries (CPX Uranium, Inc., Green Energy Fields, Inc., and ND Energy, Inc.) and a subsidiary with a majority voting interest of   75.68% (Secure Energy LLC) as defined in the Purchase Agreement.  Upon the closing of the Asset Sale, Acquisition Sub will assume the Assumed Liabilities (as defined in the Agreement) of Continental.  After giving effect to the foregoing, the Company issued 76,095,214 shares of its Common Stock, 41,566,999 stock warrants, and 2,248,000 stock options following the transaction. Consequently, the issuance of 76,095,214 shares of the Company’s common stock accounted for approximately 67% of the total issued and outstanding stocks of the Company as of July 22, 2011 and Continental became the parent company of the Company.
 
The Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Information has been prepared using the purchase method of accounting for the Continental acquisition. We have derived our historical financial data for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from our unaudited financial statements contained on Form 10-Q as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.   The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet is prepared as though the transactions occurred at the close of business on June 30, 2011. The pro forma combined statement of operations gives effect to the transactions as though they occurred on January 1, 2011.
 
The information presented in the unaudited pro forma combined financial information does not purport to represent what our financial position would have been had the transaction occurred as of the dates indicated, nor is it indicative of our future financial position for any period. You should not rely on this information as being indicative of the historical results that would have been achieved had the companies always been consolidated or the future results that the consolidated company will experience after the transaction.
 
The pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and certain assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. The unaudited pro forma combined financial information should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements and related notes of the Company.

The Company valued these common shares at the fair market value on the date of grant at $1.11 per share or $84,465,688. The Company shall have a total issued and outstanding common stock of 113,191,019 following the acquisition. Additionally, the Company issued of 41,566,999 stock warrants, and 2,248,000 stock options as consideration for the assumption of the outstanding warrants and options of Continental which was accounted for under ASC 805-30-30-9 (“Acquirer Share-Based Payment Awards Exchanged for Awards Held by the Acquiree’s Employees) to determine the portion of replacement awards granted by the Company as part of consideration transferred to Continental. The portion of replacement option and warrant awards included in the considerations transferred amounted to $789,642, thus a total purchase price is $85,255,330.

Continental has not generated future cash flows from operations and has not generated revenues since inception, has incurred losses and cash used in operations, management deemed that the acquired goodwill to be impaired and wrote-off the goodwill on the acquisition date.
