TN-K ENERGY GROUP INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
as of June  30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 and six months ended June  30, 2012 and 2011

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION.

Organization

TN-K Energy Group Inc. is an independent energy company engaged in the acquisition and development of crude oil reserves and production in the Appalachian Basin and to conduct directly and indirectly through third parties, operations on the properties.  In these Notes, the terms “Company”, “TN-K”, “we”, “us”, “our” and terms of similar import refer to TN-K Energy Group Inc.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and the footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three-month and six month periods ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2012. The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 which was filed on April 17, 2012.

Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  Going concern contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business over a reasonable length of time. The Company has incurred losses since inception and has negative cash flows from operations and a substantial portion of the debt is in default and has a stockholders’ deficit of $(1,242,416) as of June 30, 2012. The future of the Company is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional equity and/or debt financing and upon the continued development of commercially viable producing wells at levels which significantly increase the Company’s revenues and net income. Management cannot assure that the Company will be able to secure such financing or obtain financing on terms beneficial to the Company or that the Company will be able to significantly increase its revenues and net income. Failure to achieve these goals may result in the Company’s inability to continue as a going concern and the impairment of the recorded long-lived assets.

These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classifications of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.

Cash and Cash Equivalents For purposes of reporting cash flows, we consider cash equivalents to be all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase. The Company typically has cash in banks in excess of federally insured amounts.

TN-K ENERGY GROUP INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued).

Use of Estimates - Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).  Preparation in accordance with GAAP requires us to (1) adopt accounting policies within accounting rules set by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) and by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and (2) make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and other disclosed amounts.  This Note describes our significant accounting policies.  Our management believes the major estimates and assumptions impacting our financial statements are the following:

estimates of proven (i.e., reasonably certain) oil and gas reserve quantities, which affect the calculations of amortization and impairment of capitalized costs of oil and gas properties;
estimates of the fair value of oil and gas properties we own, particularly properties that we have not yet explored, or fully explored, by drilling and completing wells;
estimates of the fair value of stock options at date of grant;
estimates of the fair value of the derivative liabilities;
estimates as to the future realization of deferred income tax assets; and
the assumption required by GAAP that proved reserves and generally proved reserve value for measuring capitalized cost impairment be based on the prices of oil and gas at the end of the reporting period.
 

The estimated fair values of our unevaluated oil and gas properties affect the calculation of gain on the sale of material properties and affect our assessment as to whether portions of unevaluated capitalized costs are impaired, which also affects the calculation of recorded amortization and impairment expense with regards to our capitalized costs of oil and gas properties.

The fair value of stock options at the date of grant to employees and members of our Board of Directors is based on judgment as to expected future volatility of our common stock and expected future choices by option holders as to when options are exercised.

Actual results may differ from estimates and assumptions of future events.  Future production may vary materially from estimated oil and gas proved reserves.  Actual future prices may vary significantly from price assumptions used for determining proved reserves and for financial reporting.

Fair Value The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash, and accounts receivable approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. Predominately most of the payables are the results of operations and financings of our prior business which ceased operations in 2005, as a result of the undercapitalized nature of our Company and the age of these delinquent payables, we are unable to determine the fair value of these payables.

Accounts Receivable and Credit Policies We have certain trade receivables consisting of oil and gas sales obligations due under normal trade terms. Our management regularly reviews trade receivables and reduces the carrying amount by a valuation allowance that reflects management’s best estimate of the amount that may not be collectible.  At December 31, 2011 and 2010, management had determined no allowance for uncollectible receivables was necessary. At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 we had accounts receivable and receivables from the production of oil sale of $14,264, of which $0 was accounts receivable-related party, and $55,587, of which $1,083 was accounts receivable-related party, respectively.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued).

Asset Retirement Obligations When we incur an obligation for future asset retirement costs, we record as a liability and as a cost of the acquired asset the present value of the estimated future asset retirement obligation.  For example, when we drill a well, we record a liability and an asset cost for the present value of estimated costs we will incur at the end of the well’s life to plug the well, remove surface equipment and provide restoration of the well site’s surface.  Over time, accretion of the liability is recognized as an operating expense, and the capitalized cost is amortized over the expected useful life of the related asset.  Our asset retirement obligations (“ARO”) relate primarily to the plugging, dismantlement, removal, site reclamation and similar activities of our oil and gas properties. Due to the small amount of such monies related to the asset retirement obligations as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, this amount is included in accrued expenses on the balance sheet.

The following table reflects the change in ARO at:

Oil and Gas Properties We use the successful efforts method of accounting for oil and gas activities.  Under this method, subject to a limitation based on estimated value, all costs are capitalized directly associated with property acquisition, exploration and development.  Internal costs that are capitalized at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, were nil as such costs have been limited to costs directly identifiable with acquisition, exploration and development activities for the Company’s account and exclude indirect costs and costs related to production or general corporate overhead.
 
The Company follows the successful efforts method of accounting for its oil and gas activities. Accordingly, costs associated with the acquisition, drilling and equipping of successful exploratory wells are capitalized. Geological and geophysical costs, delay and surface rentals and drilling costs of unsuccessful exploratory wells are charged to expense as incurred. Costs of drilling development wells are capitalized. Upon the sale or retirement of oil and gas properties, the cost and accumulated depreciation or depletion are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is credited or charged to operations.
 
Capitalized costs of oil and gas properties evaluated as having, or not having, proved reserves are amortized in the aggregate by country using the unit-of-production method based upon estimated proved oil and gas reserves.  The Company currently does not have any gas production, which is sold, but we have developed policies to be inclusive of such production, if and when the Company becomes capable of selling such gas. For amortization purposes, relative volumes of oil and gas production and reserves are converted at the energy equivalent conversion rate of six thousand cubic feet of natural gas to one barrel of crude oil. Amortizable costs include estimates of future development costs of proved undeveloped reserves.  The costs of properties not yet evaluated are not amortized until evaluation of the property.  We make such evaluations for a well and associated lease rights when it is determined whether or not the well has proved oil and gas reserves.  Other unevaluated properties are evaluated for impairment as of the end of each calendar quarter based upon various factors at the time, including drilling plans, drilling activity, management’s estimated fair values of lease rights by project, and remaining lives of leases.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued).

Capitalized costs of oil properties (net of related deferred income taxes) may not exceed a ‘ceiling’ amount equal to the present value, discounted at 10% per annum, of the estimated future net cash flows from proved oil reserves plus the cost of unevaluated properties (adjusted for related income tax effects).  Should capitalized costs exceed this ceiling, the excess is charged to earnings as an impairment expense, net of its related reduction of the deferred income tax provision.  The present value of estimated future net cash flows is computed by applying period-end oil prices of oil to estimated future production of proved oil gas reserves as of period-end, less estimated future expenditures (at period-end rates) to be incurred in developing and producing the proved reserves and assuming continuation of economic conditions existing at period-end. SEC guidance allows the ceiling to be increased for subsequent events occurring reasonably before the filing date of the affected financial statements and indicative that capitalized costs were not impaired at period-end.  Such subsequent events are increased oil prices and the proving up of additional reserves on properties owned at period-end.  The present value of proved reserves’ future net cash flows excludes future cash outflows associated with settling asset retirement obligations that have been accrued on the balance sheet.

Equipment We record at cost any long-lived tangible assets that are not oil properties.  Depreciation is recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets of three to seven years.  Expenditures for replacements, renewals, and betterments are capitalized.  Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred.  Long-lived assets, other than oil and properties, are evaluated for impairment to determine if current circumstances and market conditions indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable.  We have not recognized any impairment losses on non oil and gas long-lived assets.

Impairment The accounting guidance, Accounting for the Impairment and Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, requires that long-lived assets to be held and used be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  Oil properties accounted for using the successful efforts method of accounting (which we use) are excluded from this requirement but continue to be subject to the successful efforts method’s impairment rules.

Revenue Recognition — We recognize oil revenues from our interests in producing wells when production is delivered to, and title has transferred to, the purchaser and to the extent the selling price is reasonably determinable.  We recognize the sale of the partial interests in our oil wells once the terms of such contract have been fulfilled.

Major Customers — During the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, we had two customers, respectively accounting for 100% of oil sales.  Because there are other purchasers that are capable of and willing to purchase our oil and because we have the option to change purchasers on our properties if conditions so warrant, we believe that our oil production can be sold in the market in the event that it is not sold to our existing customers, but in some circumstances a change in customers may entail significant transition costs and/or shutting in or curtailing production for weeks or even months during the transition to a new customer.

Derivative Financial Instruments - Our derivative financial instruments in the past consist of embedded and free-standing derivatives related primarily to the Laurus notes entered into on November 30, 2004 and the Alloy Marketing and Promotions, LLC promissory note. The embedded derivatives include the conversion features, and liquidated damages clauses in the registration rights agreement. In addition, under the accounting provisions, "Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock," the Company is required to classify certain other non-employee stock options and warrants (free-standing derivatives) as liabilities. The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company record the derivatives and related warrants at their fair values as of the inception date of the agreement and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. The fair value of all derivatives at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 totaled $0 and $1,164,899, respectively. Any change in fair value of these instruments will be recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or expense at each reporting date. If the fair value of the derivatives is higher at the subsequent balance sheet date, the Company will record a non-operating, non-cash charge. If the fair value of the derivatives is lower at the subsequent balance sheet date, the Company will record non-operating, non-cash income.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued).

At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 derivatives were valued primarily using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model with the following assumptions: dividend yield of 0%, annual volatility of 179%, risk free interest rate of 1.00%, and expected life of three to 5 years.

The accounting guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy based on whether the market participant assumptions used in determining fair value are obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) or reflect the Company's own assumptions of market participant valuation (unobservable inputs). 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. The accounting guidance establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
 
 
•           Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets that are unadjusted and accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;
•           Level 2—Quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in markets that are inactive; quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or financial instruments for which significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly; or
•           Level 3—Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

The Company considers an active market to be one in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis, and views an inactive market as one in which there are few transactions for the asset or liability, the prices are not current, or price quotations vary substantially either over time or among market makers. Where appropriate the Company's or the counterparty's non-performance risk is considered in determining the fair values of liabilities and assets, respectively.

As a result of the Company and at the advice of counsel, determined that the remaining legacy convertible debt instruments were no longer enforceable due to the statue of limitations, hence has written such debt off as other income during the quarter ended June 30, 2012, the related derivative financial instruments were no longer valid as well. See Note 8: Gain on Write-Off Debt Relief, Liquidated Damages and Derivatives. As a result the remaining outstanding derivative liabilities have been written off as other income during the quarter ended June 30, 2012.

Net Income (Loss) Per Share Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted net income (loss) per share reflects per share amounts that would have resulted if dilutive potential common stock had been converted to common stock. Included in the dilutive securities are 3,402,211 of options and warrants and 980,794 shares issuable upon a conversion of $180,000 of debt outstanding.
 
Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash.  We maintain substantially all cash assets at one financial institution.  We periodically evaluate the credit worthiness of financial institutions, and maintain cash accounts only in large high quality financial institutions. We believe that credit risk associated with cash is remote.  The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of nonpayment by counter parties, a significant portion of which are concentrated in energy related industries. The creditworthiness of customers and other counter parties is subject to continuing review.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued).

Share-Based Compensation We adopted the accounting guidance for, Share-Based Payments, on a modified prospective basis. The accounting guidance requires publicly-held companies to recognize in their statements of operations the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity-based compensation to employees, consistent with the rules for options to non-employees.

Reclassification Certain amounts in the 2012 and 2011 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the June 30, 2012 financial statement presentation.  Such reclassifications have had no effect on net income (loss).

NOTE 3 — OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES AND EQUIPMENT (continued).

Costs associated with unevaluated properties are primarily lease acquisition costs. During December 31, 2011, we drilled 12 dry holes and recorded an impairment expense of $216,801, associated with dry holes. Pending costs of $30,165 and $43,989 for wells-in-progress existed at December 31, 2011. During the three months ended June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2011, we recorded an impairment expense of $142,128 and $199,924; respectively, as a result of well rework efforts and further evaluation of some wells plugged due to insufficient production. There are no unevaluated costs relating to significant development activities. Reclassification of other unproved property costs to evaluated costs is largely dependent on (i) how quickly we drill on the unevaluated property, (ii) the results of such drilling, (iii) if third-parties pay drilling costs to earn a portion of our interest, and (iv) quarterly assessments of such costs for impairments.

Prospect leasing and acquisition normally require one to three years, and the subsequent evaluation normally requires an additional one to three years.

Acquisitions of oil properties

On January 15, 2011 per a Memorandum of Understanding the Company sold 32.5% working and royalty interests to five individuals and/or entities in the Charles and Lynda Anderson Well # 10 for $42,000.

The Company retained a 2.5% working and operating interests in all of the wells whereby the 27.5% working and operating interests were sold. As consideration for our working and operating interests, under the terms of the Contract For Sale of Oil & Gas Leasehold Estate we received:

 
a cash payment of $716,666.68 (including commissions of $316,667),
 
a 5% overriding royalty interest (ORI) of 100% interest for the entire JR and Pansy Clark checkerboard lease which is also referred to as the Clark Brothers lease,

NOTE 3 — OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES AND EQUIPMENT (continued).

Under the terms of the Agreement, we were responsible for a pro-rata share of the closing costs, estimated to be $12,000, and the payment of all personal property taxes related to oil produced by us for the current tax year up to the date of closing.

As a result of the aforementioned transaction of acquiring these new interests in operating wells, the Company obtained an appraisal of such additional oil well interests acquired. The fair value of the additional oil well interests acquired were $862,370 plus the cash consideration received of $400,000 aggregated to a sale of oil and gas lease revenue of $1,262,370, which has been recorded as revenues. The costs attributed to this transaction amounted to $415,538 of book value relinquished of oil and gas property value and $49,478 of recorded value of related equipment, which has been presented as a cost of oil and gas leases sold in the amount of $465.016.

On April 24, 2012, per Memorandum of Understanding on the Roquel Chambers lease, dated December 16, 2011, the Company opted into the participation right to drill Chambers Well #002 for 30% working interest at the cost of approximately $11,000 and is responsible for approximately 35% of the costs associated with the well.

Impairment of Oil Properties

We use the successful efforts-cost accounting method, which requires recognition of an impairment of oil and gas properties when the total capitalized costs (net of related deferred income taxes) exceed a “ceiling” as described in Note 3.

Amortization Rate

Amortization of oil property is calculated quarterly based on the quarter’s production in barrels of oil equivalent (“BOE”) times an amortization rate.  The amortization rate is an amortization base divided by the BOE sum of proved reserves at the end of the quarter and production during the quarter.  The amortization base consists of (i) the capitalized evaluated oil costs at the end of the quarter before recording any impairment at quarter’s end, plus (ii) estimated future development costs for the proved reserves, less (iii) accumulated amortization at the beginning of the quarter.

The following table shows by type of asset the Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization (“DD&A”) expense for three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011:

NOTE 4 – LOAN PAYABLE, CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE, CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE – RELATED PARTY.

In April 2007 we executed an agreement with Mr. Dan Page whereby we received $250,000 in funds to be advanced through a line of credit which was evidenced by a convertible promissory note.  The note bears interest at a rate of 7.5% per annum and had an original maturity date of April 23, 2008. The initial $250,000 advanced under the credit line is convertible at any time into shares of our common stock at a price per share equal to $0.35.  We pay interest only payments until the maturity date of the convertible note, unless it is converted or prepaid.  Upon maturity or the conversion of the initial $250,000 principal amount and interest due under the note, we also agreed to issue to Mr. Page a four year warrant to purchase shares of common stock with an exercise price of $0.35 per share in an amount equal to 20% of the total shares issued upon conversion of the note.  On September 27, 2007, Mr. Page amended the note to provide an additional $100,000 of working capital to us. Under the terms of the amendment, the additional $100,000 is convertible into shares of our common stock at a price per share equal to $0.18. As consideration for this increase of availability under the credit line, at such time as the note matures or he converts the additional $100,000 into common stock, we agreed to issue him a warrant to purchase shares of common stock equal to 20% of the total shares to be issued upon the conversion of that portion of the note with an exercise price of $0.18 per share.  On May 1, 2009 we entered into a second amendment of the note to provide for an additional $50,000 of working capital to us, bringing the total amount available under the credit line to $400,000, and to extend the maturity date of the note to December 31, 2009. Under the terms of the amendment, the additional $50,000 is convertible into shares of our common stock at a price per share equal to $0.12. As consideration for this extension, upon maturity of the note or at such time as he converts the note we agreed to issue him a warrant to purchase shares of common stock equal to 20% of the total share amount issued upon conversion of the note, with an exercise price of $0.12 per share, solely as it relates to this additional $50,000.

On December 8, 2009 Mr. Page extended the due date of the note to June 30, 2010.  The warrants we will issue Mr. Page will expire four years from the date of issuance, which shall be deemed to be on the earlier of (i) the maturity date of the note; (ii) the date on which the funds are advanced in full and owing by us; or (iii) the date on which we elect to pay off the note in full during the term.  We agreed to register for resale the shares underlying the convertible note and warrants, but we have not filed the required registration statement. On June 29, 2010, Mr. Page extended the due date of the note to December 31, 2010. Effective December 13, 2010, the Company entered into a Fifth Amendment to the Convertible Line of Credit Note with Mr. Dan Page pursuant to which he extended the due date of all amounts due under the Convertible Line of Credit to December 31, 2011. At June 30, 2012, the Company has not received an extension of the note as Mr. Dan Page is in the process of amending the term of the Convertible Line of Credit to a Secured Loan Agreement.

At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we owed Mr. Page $180,000 and $180,000, respectively of principal and approximately $3,366 and $0, respectively of accrued but unpaid interest under this credit line. Mr. Dan Page, a principal shareholder of our Company, is the father of Mr. Ken Page, currently our sole officer and a member of our Board of Directors.

On April 1, 2005, we issued to Alloy Marketing and Promotions, LLC ("Alloy") an unsecured subordinated convertible promissory note in the principal amount of approximately $600,000 in payment of services provided to us by Alloy in 2004. The note matured upon demand by Alloy and could have been converted into shares of our common stock at any time after April 1, 2005 at a conversion price equal to 75% of fair market value of the common stock, defined as the lesser of (i) the average of the closing prices of the common stock for the five trading days immediately prior to the first to occur of (A) the date on which we include the registration of the resale of the common stock issuable upon conversion of the note in a registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and (B) any date on which Alloy delivers to us a notice of conversion, or (ii) the closing price of the common stock for the trading day immediately prior to the first to occur of such dates. The note is in default. In connection with the subordinated convertible promissory note, we entered into a registration rights agreement with Alloy, pursuant to which we agreed to use our commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement for offerings to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with respect to the resale of the shares of common stock issuable upon the conversion of the note. We are obligated to pay Alloy a cash fee, as liquidated damages, equal to 1.50% of the original principal amount of the note for each thirty day period, beginning April 1, 2005, until the registration statement is declared effective. We would also have to make similar payments if the registration statement, after it is declared effective, ceases to be effective for more than twenty consecutive calendar days or more than thirty days in the aggregate during a year, or the common stock is not listed or quoted or is suspended from trading on any trading market for three consecutive trading days, and such suspension shall not have been lifted within thirty days or the common stock is not listed on another trading market. As a result of the Company and at the advice of counsel, determined that the remaining legacy convertible debt instruments were no longer enforceable due to the statue of limitations, hence has recognized a gain on forgiveness of debt during the six months ended June 30, 2012, the related derivative financial instruments were no longer valid as well. As a result the remaining outstanding derivative liabilities have been written off as other income during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

NOTE 4 – LOAN PAYABLE, CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE, CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE – RELATED PARTY (continued).

On October 28, 2005, we executed a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of approximately $50,000 with Mr. Robert Wood under the terms of a convertible promissory note which bears interest at 7% per annum and is convertible into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $0.25 per share, was due in October 2006.  The purchaser was also issued corresponding five warrants to purchase 40,000 shares of our common stock common stock at an exercise price of $0.25 per share which expired in October 2010.  In connection with both the convertible note and the warrants, we entered into a registration rights agreement with the purchaser whereby we agreed to register for resale the shares underlying the convertible note and warrants.

On January 19, 2012, Robert H. Woods, Jr. converted his original note dated October 28, 2005 issued in the principal amount of $50,000 and had an outstanding balance of approximately $21,800 in accrued interest. The conversion price of $0.25 issued 287,146 shares of common stock.

Through June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we had accrued $0 and $742,684, respectively of liquidated damages as interest expense under this agreement. Under the provisions of the accounting guidance for, “Accounting for Contingencies” and “Accounting for Registration Payment Arrangements”.

NOTE 5 — STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY.

Common Stock

In August 2011, there were 3,242,239 shares of common stock returned to treasury as a result of a final determination by the ESOP Plan’s trustee, that such shares were in fact unearned. In addition the $6,207,000 recorded as unearned ESOP shares has been applied to additional paid in capital and common stock for the return of such shares. See discussion in Note 4 for the conversion of $71,800 of debt for 287,146 shares of common stock.

Warrants

In February 2010, the holder of a warrant for 50,000 shares exercisable at $0.35 per share exercised the warrant resulting in cash proceeds to the company of $17,500. The Company extended the holders remaining warrants until June 11, 2011. The Company incurred an expense of $5,068.

Stock Options

On March 22, 2004 our Board of Directors adopted, subject to stockholder approval, the 2004 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2004 Plan”). The 2004 Plan was approved by our stockholder in May 2004.  No award could be granted under the 2004 Plan subsequent to the 10th anniversary of the date on which the plan was approved by our stockholders. The number of shares of our common stock available for issuance under the 2004 Plan was 3,500,000.  At June 30, 2012, there were outstanding options to purchase 355,000 shares of our common stock at exercise prices ranging from $0.25 to $0.56 per share.

On September 29, 2009 our Board of Directors adopted our 2009 Equity Compensation Plan (the “2009 Plan”). The plan authorizes the grant of (i) options which qualify as incentive stock options under Section 422(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (ii) non-qualified options which do not qualify as incentive stock options, (iii) awards of our common stock (iv) and rights to make direct purchases of our common stock which may be subject to certain restrictions. We have reserved 4,800,000 shares of our common stock for issuance upon grants made under the plan.  As of June 30, 2012, there were outstanding options to purchase 2,188,000 shares of our common stock at exercise prices ranging from $0.12 to $0.30 per share.

In September 2010, 3,000,000 options exercisable at $0.20 a share held by Mr. Page, expired. On December 14, 2010 our Board of Directors granted Mr. Page five year non-qualified options under to purchase 1,500,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.30 per share. The Options were valued using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model with the following assumptions: dividend yield of 0%, annual volatility of 234%, risk free interest rate of 0%, and expected life of 4.5 years.

NOTE 6 –RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS.

The Company purchased partial interests in oil and gas wells, in November and December 2009, through the issuance of 4,800,000 shares of common stock. The sellers of these partial interests also perform well drilling services for the exploration of new wells on an ongoing basis for the Company.

The Company has entered into a one year employment arrangement with its CEO, in September 2007, with automatic annual renewals. The employment arrangement required a monthly salary of $6,000 and a monthly expense allowance of $1,000, with 3,000,000 stock options issued. These stock options vest from March 2008 to September 2008 and have a $0.20 exercise price for three years. In September 2009, this employment agreement was amended to reduce the monthly salary to be $4,167.67 a month and an additional 120,000 options were issued with an exercise price of $0.25, vesting 10,000 options monthly commencing in September 2009. On December 14, 2010 our Board of Directors granted Mr. Page five year non-qualified options under to purchase 1,500,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.30 per share. The Options were valued using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model with the following assumptions: dividend yield of 0%, annual volatility of 407%, risk free interest rate of 0%, and expected life of 4.5 years.

In March 2010, the Company has entered into a one year consulting arrangement for services to be rendered from time to time by a related party who is also a principal shareholder of the Company and the father of the Company’s CEO for an annual fee of $32,000, which has since been extended annually.

In September 2010, the Company assigned a 50% working interest in its 87.5% interest in the McClellan lease to a company controlled by a related party for $0. The company controlled by the related party is responsible for 50% of the costs on the lease.

On October 15, 2010, the Company entered into a 50% interest in an 87.5% working interest in Robbins Well #2 in Overton County, Tennessee pursuant to the terms of that certain Assignment of Interest in Oil and Gas Lease dated October 15, 2010 by and between the Company and Dan Page for an initial cost to the Company of $0. The Company is responsible for 50% of the costs on this well and Dan Page is responsible for the remaining 50% of such costs.

On August 31, 2011, the Company entered into a 15% interest in an 75% working interest in De Loy Brow #10 in Clinton County, Kentucky pursuant to the terms of that certain Assignment of Interest in Oil and Gas Lease dated August 31, 2011 by and between the Company and Allen (Dan) Page a related party for an initial cost to the Company of $10. The Company is responsible for 25% of the costs on this well and Allen (Dan) Page is responsible for the remaining 75% of such costs.

On December 09, 2011, the Company made payments of approximately $300,000 towards accrued interest and principle reduction of the outstanding notes payable due to Mr. Allen (Dan) Page and accrued consulting expenses. At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 we owed Mr. Page $180,000 and $180,000, respectively of principal and approximately $3,366 and $0, respectively of accrued but unpaid interest under this credit line. At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 we owed Mr. Page $14,746 and $0, respectively of accrued consulting expenses.

NOTE 7 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES.

The Company may be subject to various possible contingencies, which are derived primarily from interpretations of federal and state laws and regulations affecting the oil and gas industry. Although management believes it has complied with the various laws and regulations, new rulings and interpretations may require the Company to make future adjustments.

The Company continually evaluates its leasehold interests, therefore certain leases may be abandoned by the Company in the normal course of business.

NOTE 7 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (continued).

The Company has been involved in litigation from time to time as a result of the failure to make payments on certain of its past due debts. Overall management believes the net recorded value of its past due payables adequately cover the total financial exposure of the past due payables.

NOTE 8 ─ GAIN ON WRITE-OFF OF DEBT RELIEF, LIQUIDATED DAMAGES AND DERIVATIVES.

During the six months ended June 30, 2012 the Company recorded a gain on debt relief of $1,342,684, a gain on liquidated damages of $742,684 and a gain on derivatives of $1,164,899. Based upon the opinions of counsel, the Company has recorded a write-off of the Alloy Marketing and Promotions, LLC promissory note attributed to our operations which were discontinued in 2005. The Company no longer reflects the liability represented by this contractual payable on its balance sheet based on the six-year statute of limitations under Delaware state 10 Del. C. 8109, which requires an action to enforce a promissory note to be commenced within six (6) years of the date of cause of action accrued, of the State of Delaware.  While the Company took this action based upon an opinion of counsel it received that the statute of limitations would apply thereby making the contract unenforceable and therefore uncollectable, there can be no assurances that these vendor may not raise exceptions to this interpretation which would toll the statute of limitations based on the uncertainty of case law in this area and the particular factual circumstances applicable to such vendor.

In addition during the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded a $359,828 gain on the writeoff of certain legacy payables which the statute of limitations has expired relating the collectability of these payables attributed to discontinued operations of several years ago.

In the year ended December 31, 2011 the Company recorded a gain on accounts payable of $1,380,645. Based upon the opinions of counsel, the Company has recorded a write-off of the payables attributed to our operations which were discontinued in 2005. At December 31, 2011, the Company no longer reflects the liability represented by this contractual payable on its balance sheet based on the six-year statute of limitations under Section 4.16.080(3) of the Revised Code of the State of Washington.  While the Company took this action based upon an opinion of counsel it received that the statute of limitations would apply thereby making the contract unenforceable and therefore uncollectable, there can be no assurances that these vendor may not raise exceptions to this interpretation which would toll the statute of limitations based on the uncertainty of case law in this area and the particular factual circumstances applicable to such vendor.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operation for the Second Quarter 2012 and six months ended June 30, 2012 and the Second Quarter 2011 and the six months ended June 30, 2011 should be read in conjunction with the unaudited financial statements and the notes to those statements that are included elsewhere in this report. Our discussion includes forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those set forth under the Item 1A. Risk Factors appearing in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 as previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  We use words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements.

Overview

We are an independent oil exploration and production company, engaged in acquiring oil leases and exploring and developing crude oil reserves and production in the Appalachian basin. We concentrate our operations in Kentucky and Tennessee primarily in the Murfreesboro, Knox and Wells Creek formations, although we also have assets located in the Granville, Stones River and Sunnybrook formations. All of these formations are primary known producing formations. Our growth strategy is to focus on our operational growth in our core area, to convert our unproved reserves to prove reserves and to continue our acreage acquisitions while maintaining balanced, prudent financial management.

Our Operations

Our operations are divided between leases in which we have a participation interest and leases in which we are the operator.  Interests owned by participation leases means we have a working or royalty interest in a property that is operated or maintained by another interest owner under an agreement. For participation leases, we receive payments for our oil sales from the operator and we are billed by the operator for a percentage of joint expenses relative to the costs of drilling and transporting the oil from the wells to the sales point.

For drilling operations on leases in which we are the operator, we hire third parties to provide contract drilling services to us on an as needed basis. We have been able to reduce or eliminate our financial exposure in the initial drilling in our projects by creating joint venture arrangements that provide for others to pay for all or a disproportionate share of the initial drilling costs in exchange for a working or royalty interest in the well. As of December 31, 2011, we had sold working interests in 5 of our wells ranging from 20% to 35% per well and for each well we are responsible for completion and operating costs on those wells ranging from 25% to 58% per well, which lead to the negotiations of overriding royalty interest of 5% per existing wells. Respectively, as of June 30, 2012, we had sold working interests in approximately 38 to 50 of our wells ranging from 27.5% per well and for each well we are responsible for completion and operating costs on those wells ranging from 33.33% per well, which lead to the negotiations of overriding royalty interest of 5% per existing wells. These negotiations will allow us to move forward in drilling a greater number of wells, at minimal costs, than we would otherwise able to drill based upon our limited financial resources. We expect to continue to use these types of relationships to partially or completely fund initial drilling of future wells.

In addition to the challenges faced by small independent oil and gas companies, we continue to face a number of challenges in executing our business model which are particular to our company. Our revenues increased 87% for the Second Quarter 2012 from the Second Quarter 2011, and our total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2012 increased 68% from the comparable period in 2011. Our income from operations increased 96% from period to period are attributed to the sale of oil leases and a lower amount of natural depletion of wells and downtime as we are beginning to see the effects of our modify business plan to reduce drilling and completion cost through negotiated sales and acquiring overriding royalty interest within previously operated leases and new leaseholds.

During the balance of 2012, we plan to continue to expand our acreage position in our core area, focusing on acreage we will operate as well as overriding royalty interest in new acres and participation in applicable drilling rights.

At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, our balance sheet includes approximately $3 million and $4.9 million of past due debt, notes and liquidated damages that relates to the prior business of our company before those operations were discontinued in 2005, which is net of approximately, $3.72 million of aged payments, accrued damages and derivative liabilities which were written off as of June 30, 2012 and net of approximately, $1.38 million for the year ending December 31, 2011.  None of the remaining obligations represent secured debt, although a number of the creditors have obtained judgments against our company. We do not have the resources to satisfy these obligations. If one or more of these judgment creditors should seek to enforce the judgment, our ability to continue our operations as they are presently conducted is in jeopardy.
 
While we have been able to acquire participating interests in producing wells, as well leasing unproven acreage for our drilling operations, using minimal amounts of cash by leveraging our common stock, it is possible that the value of the shares we have issued have exceeded the price we would have paid for the same assets had we been negotiating a cash transaction.  We recognized an impairment of $21,936 and $56,996, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 and $142,128 and $199,924 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, of net of income tax on various properties we acquired as the value of the reserves was less than the value of the shares we issued as consideration in the transaction.  Given our limited cash resources, it is likely that we will continue to use equity to expand our holdings and pay costs which will further dilute our existing stockholders and possibly result in additional one-time impairments of the assets acquired.
 
Our working capital is not sufficient to pay our obligations as they become due. We also face the challenge of limited personnel and diversion of our management’s time and attention. Subsequent to December 31, 2010 we have hired a part-time accountant, but as our company continues to grow, we need hire additional staff to handle the increasing needs of our company, including from an administrative standpoint, and we need to invest in internal systems to ensure that our financial statements are properly prepared. Lastly, we need to raise additional capital to fund these necessary infrastructure increases and our continued expansion, as well as to provide adequate funds to satisfy our obligations. We have been relying on cash provided by our operations and funding available to us under a line of credit extended by a related party which matured in December 31, 2011 and remains past due. At June 30, 2012, $180,000 is outstanding under this facility. The amount is convertible into shares of our common stock at various prices, but there are no assurances the holder will convert the obligation at maturity.
 
Given the small size of our company, the early stage of our operations and our limited revenues, we may find it difficult to raise sufficient capital to meet our needs. If we are unable to access capital as needed, our ability to grow our company is in jeopardy and absent a significant increase in our revenues we may be unable to continue as a going concern.

Going Concern

While we reported net operating income of $0.9 million and net income of $4.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, these operating results are primarily attributable to one-time transaction and non-cash gains. At June 30, 2012 we have an accumulated deficit of $15.7 million.  The report of our independent registered public accounting firm on our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011 contains an explanatory paragraph regarding our ability to continue as a going concern based upon our operating losses and need to raise additional capital. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.  There are no assurances we will be successful in our efforts to increase our revenues and report profitable operations or to continue as a going concern, in which event investors would lose their entire investment in our company.

Results of Operations

Our revenue in revenues from oil sales generated both from wells in which we are the operator as well as those in which we have a working interest, as well as from non-recurring well services and sales of interest in oil and gas leases to third parties.  Our revenues from all sources were significantly lower in 2011 than 2010 which was directly related to the natural depletion of wells and downtime, and the sales of oil and gas leases. During the Second Quarter 2012 and 2011, the average sales price (including transfers) per unit of oil extracted from wells drilled by us was approximately $90.60 and approximately $99.30, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 and approximately $94.83 and approximately $94.66, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.
 
Our total operating expenses during the Second Quarter 2012, increased approximately 142% from the comparative period in 2011 and increased approximately 54% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from the comparable period 2011. These increases are directly related to the cost of goods the oil and gas leases we sold during the periods and the impairment of the developed properties, offset by a decline in selling, general and administrative expense. Oil lease operating expenses, which include our portion of the cost of contract drillers, and other expenses associated with the drilling operations and depletion expense, were 98% and 109% of oil sales revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 as compared to 49% and 39% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The declines in margins for our oil sales are attributable to our sale of the Clark oil lease.

Our sales, general and administrative expenses decreased approximately 28% in the three months ended June 30, 2012 from the comparable period in 2011. Sales, general and administrative expenses decreased approximately 5% in the six months ended June 30, 2012 from the comparable period in 2011This decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in outsourcing professional services. We anticipate our operating expenses will increase during the balance of 2012 which will be reflective of our increased operations. We are not able at this time, however, to quantify the amount of the expected increase.
 
During Second Quarter 2012 and 2011, we recognized an impairment expense of $21,936 and $56,996 , respectively, and $142,128 and $199,924, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. These impairment expenses are related to impairment of developed properties as we have determined that the carrying value of these assets is likely not recoverable. Given the nature of our operations it is likely we will recognize comparable expenses in future periods.
 
Included in our total other income during the Second Quarter 2012 and 2011, are non-cash gains on derivatives of $0 as compared to $155,000. We also recognized non-cash gains of $1.17 million and $760,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.  These gains on derivatives consists of non-cash gains related to the write-off of the Alloy Marketing promissory note in the first quarter of 2012 based upon the statute of limitations on the enforceability of this obligation and are associated with the change in the fair value of derivative liabilities. The difference in fair value of the derivative liabilities between the date of their issuance and their measurement date has been recognized as other income in those periods.
 
Also included in our total other income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 is a non-cash gain of $360,000 $1.7 million, respectively, from the write-off of aged accounts payable. We also recognized non-cash gains associated with the write-off of aged accounts payable of $1.38 million in the comparable periods in 2011.  Under the state laws of both Tennessee and Delaware, jurisdictions in which our company previously had operations prior to the discontinuation of all operations in April 2005 or currently operate from, based upon opinions of counsel we received we are permitted to write-off these payables. These gains are one-time and not related to our operating performance.
 
 During the Second  Quarter 2012 and the six months ended June 30, 2012, we recognized a gain of $0 and $743,000 on liquidated damages associated with the interest accrued for the conversion note of the Woods note and the gain as a result of the write-off of the Alloy Marketing promissory note.  During the Second Quarter 2011 and the six months ended June 30, 2011 we recognized expenses of $27,000 and $54,000, respectively.  Liquidated damages are related to registration rights granted by our prior management.
 
Our interest expense during Second Quarter 2012 and 2011 was $3,366 and $35,280; respectively, and $8,700 and $70,000, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. The decreased in both periods is the result of the decreased amounts outstanding principle under the line of credit provided by a related party which provides funding for our operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate sufficient cash to satisfy its needs for cash.  At June 30, 2012, we had a working capital deficit of $2,983,422 as compared to a working capital deficit of $6,078,668 at December 31, 2011. In addition to cash, our current assets at June 30, 2012 include accounts receivable of $14,264 which is due 30 days from invoicing. Our current liabilities includes approximately $3.7 million of accounts payable and accrued expenses, as of June 30, 2012, compared to $6.0 million of accounts payable and accrued expenses at December 31, 2011. We do not have any commitments for capital expenditures.”
 
Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $260,923 as compared to $431,823 for the six months ended June 30, 2011.  During the 2012 period, cash was provided by our net income and increases in our accounts receivables offset by decreased in accounts payable and accrued expenses.  During the 2011 period, cash was provided by our net income and decreases in our accounts payable offset by increased in accounts receivable. Net cash used in investing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2012 principally reflects the sale of oil and gas leases offset by the purchase of oil and gas rights and fixed assets, as compared to net cash used in investment activities in six months ended June 30, 2011 which principally reflects the purchase of oil and gas leases and fixed assets.  There were no net cash used in financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2012 as compared to six months ended June 30, 2011 which reflected payments of the amounts due under the King’s Oil, LLC guarantee.

Line of Credit

In April 2007 we executed an agreement with Mr. Dan Page, a related party, whereby we received $250,000 in funds to be advanced through a line of credit which was evidenced by a convertible promissory note.  The note bears interest at a rate of 7.5% per annum and had an original maturity date of April 23, 2008. The initial $250,000 advanced under the credit line is convertible at any time into shares of our common stock at a price per share equal to $0.35.  We pay interest only payments until the maturity date of the convertible note, unless it is converted or prepaid.  Upon maturity or the conversion of the initial $250,000 principal amount and interest due under the note, we also agreed to issue to Mr. Page a four year warrant to purchase shares of common stock with an exercise price of $0.35 per share in an amount equal to 20% of the total shares issued upon conversion of the note.  On September 27, 2007, Mr. Page amended the note to provide an additional $100,000 of working capital to us. Under the terms of the amendment, the additional $100,000 is convertible into shares of our common stock at a price per share equal to $0.18. As consideration for this increase of availability under the credit line, at such time as the note matures or he converts the additional $100,000 into common stock, we agreed to issue him a warrant to purchase shares of common stock equal to 20% of the total shares to be issued upon the conversion of that portion of the note with an exercise price of $0.18 per share.  On May 1, 2009 we entered into a second amendment of the note to provide for an additional $50,000 of working capital to us, bringing the total amount available under the credit line to $400,000, and to extend the maturity date of the note to December 31, 2009. Under the terms of the amendment, the additional $50,000 is convertible into shares of our common stock at a price per share equal to $0.12. As consideration for this extension, upon maturity of the note or at such time as he converts the note we agreed to issue him a warrant to purchase shares of common stock equal to 20% of the total share amount issued upon conversion of the note, with an exercise price of $0.12 per share, solely as it relates to this additional $50,000.
 
The warrants we will issue Mr. Page will expire four years from the date of issuance, which shall be deemed to be on the earlier of (i) the maturity date of the note; (ii) the date on which the funds are advanced in full and owing by us; or (iii) the date on which we elect to pay off the note in full during the term.  We agreed to register for resale the shares underlying the convertible note and warrants for resale, but we have not filed the required registration statement. We have entered into a number of extension agreements with Mr. Page and the line of credit presently had a maturity date of December 31, 2011.  The note is presently past due.   At June 30, 2012, the Company had received an oral extension of the maturity date and we expect to enter into a modification of the note terms during the third quarter of 2012. At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we owed Mr. Page $180,000 and $180,000; respectively, of principal and approximately $3,366 and $0, respectively of accrued but unpaid interest under this credit line, net of repayments.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported periods.  The more critical accounting estimates include estimates related to the allowance for doubtful accounts and the valuation of warrants that are deemed to be not indexed to our common stock.  We also have other key accounting policies, which involve the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that are significant to understanding our results, which are described in Note 2 to our financial statements appearing elsewhere in this report.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of the date of this report, we do not have any 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 are material to investors. The term "off-balance sheet arrangement" generally means any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement to which an entity unconsolidated with us is a party, under which we have any obligation arising under a guarantee contract, derivative instrument or variable interest or a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to such entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support for such assets.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The recent accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

Item 3.                          Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Not applicable for a smaller reporting company.

Item 4.                          Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.  We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of disclosure controls and procedures are met.  Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures.  The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Based on his evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, our Chief Executive Officer who also serves as our principal financial and accounting officer has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective such that the information relating to our company, required to be disclosed in our Securities and Exchange Commission reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure as a result of continuing material weaknesses. The material weakness identified were related to insufficient personnel and accounting resources that are adequate to allow sufficient time to (i) perform a review of the consolidation and supporting financial statement disclosure schedules independent of the preparer (ii) adequately prepare for our quarterly reviews, and (iii) research all applicable accounting pronouncements as they relate to our financial statements and underlying disclosures. While we hired an experienced accountant in December 2010 in an effort to mitigate to an extent these material weaknesses, she is a part-time employee and we have yet to devote sufficient resources necessary to fully develop the necessary procedures. Until such time as these procedures have been fully developed and implemented, and we are able to devote a portion of our limited resources to expanding our personnel and providing greater resources to our accounting staff, we expect that the material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures will continue.
