Item 8.01 Other Information.
On or about June 18, 2012, Circle Star Energy Corp.’s (the “Company”) registered agent was served with a complaint (Civil Action No. 12-CV-327-CVE-PJC) filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Oklahoma by Cottonwood Natural Resources, Ltd. (“Cottonwood”). Cottonwood alleges breach of contract and fraud in connection with a Purchase and Sale Agreement dated April 19, 2012 between the company and Cottonwood (the “Purchase Agreement”) related to the purchase of certain oil and gas interests in approximately 14,640 acres in Finney County, Kansas (the “Kansas Property”). Cottonwood filed the complaint after the Company terminated the Purchase Agreement after the Company determined that Cottonwood had options to title to less than 12,908.46 net acres and Cottonwood failed to disclose all material facts related to the Kansas Properties. Cottonwood is seeking damages of at least $4,324,180. The allegations by Cottonwood are without merit and the Company intends to vigorously defend against the claims. The Company is evaluating potential counterclaims against Cottonwood.
