FORTEM RESOURCES INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the three and nine months ended November 30, 2019

(Expressed in US dollars – Unaudited)

 

1. NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS

 

Fortem Resources Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on July 9, 2004. The Company focuses its business efforts on the acquisition, exploration, and development of oil and gas properties.

 

The accompanying consolidated condensed interim financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As of November 30, 2019, the Company has not achieved profitable operations, has incurred losses in developing its business, and further losses are anticipated. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $40,350,532.

 

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and pay its liabilities when they come due. To date, the Company has funded operations through the issuance of capital stock and debt. Management plans to continue raising additional funds through equity or debt financings and loans from directors. There is no certainty that further funding will be available as needed. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue operating as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue its operations as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to raise sufficient new capital to fund its operating commitments and ongoing losses and ultimately on generating profitable operations. The consolidated condensed interim financial statements do not include any adjustments to be recorded to assets or liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

On July 16, 2019, the Company’s common shares ceased trading on the TSX Venture Exchange pursuant to a cease trade order (“CTO”) issued by the Alberta Securities Commission (“ASC”).

 

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The unaudited consolidated condensed interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). They do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. However, except as disclosed herein, there have been no material changes in the information disclosed in the notes to the financial statements from the year ended February 28, 2019 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC. The unaudited consolidated condensed interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with those financial statements included in the 10-K report. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for fair presentation, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, have been made. Operating results for the nine months ended November 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending February 28, 2020.

 

Basis of Consolidation

 

These consolidated condensed interim financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Colony Energy, LLC, (“Colony”) Black Dragon Energy, LLC, (“Black Dragon”) Rolling Rock Resources, LLC (“Rolling Rock”) and City of Gold, LLC (“City of Gold”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries have been eliminated upon consolidation.

 

Basic and Diluted Loss per Share

 

Basic earnings or loss per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average of all potentially dilutive shares of the common stock that were outstanding during the years presented. There were 2,250,000 (February 28, 2019 - 2,750,000) potentially dilutive securities excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

 

 

FORTEM RESOURCES INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the three and nine months ended November 30, 2019
(Expressed in US dollars – Unaudited)

 

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Basic and Diluted Loss per Share (continued)

 

The treasury stock method is used in calculating diluted EPS for potentially dilutive stock options and share purchase warrants, which assumes that any proceeds received from the exercise of in-the-money stock options and share purchase warrants, would be used to purchase common shares at the average market price for the period.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP 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. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors 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. The most significant estimates with regard to these financial statements relate to carrying values of oil and gas properties, investments and deferred acquisition costs, the assumptions used to record asset retirement obligations, the assumptions used to determine the fair value of derivative financial assets and liabilities, and valuation of share-based payments.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the SEC did not, or are not believed by management to, have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

3. INVESTMENT IN ASIA PACIFIC MINING LTD.

 

In April 2017, a binding financing and option agreement (the “Agreement”) was assigned to the Company where the Company subscribed a total of 2,930,259 units in the capital of Asia Pacific Mining Limited (“Asia Pacific”) at a total cost of $1,500,000, which represents approximately 7.5% of the issued and outstanding shares of Asia Pacific immediately after the financing. Asia Pacific is a private company registered in Hong Kong and the principal activities of Asia Pacific are exploration and mining in Myanmar (Note 6) and investment holding. Each unit consisted of one common share and one share purchase warrant which will entitle the holder of each warrant to acquire an additional share of Asia Pacific at an exercise price of $0.5119 per share during the term equal to the greater of two years from the closing of additional financing of Asia Pacific according to the terms of the Agreement or 18 months from the receipts of all necessary permits to carry out the exploration program. The shares and warrants have been recorded at cost as further disclosed in Note 14.

Compeer Property

On March 31, 2017, the Company entered into a petroleum, natural gas and general rights conveyance agreement to acquire a 100% interest in and to certain petroleum, natural gas and general rights, including Alberta Crown Petroleum and Oil Leases in the Godin area of Northern Alberta.

 

In addition, the vendor is entitled to receive certain milestone payments from the Company in the aggregate amount up to $210,000 as follows:

 

	i)	$30,000 on or before June 29, 2017 (settled with the issuance of shares during fiscal 2018);
	ii)	$30,000 on or before September 27, 2017 (settled with the issuance of shares during fiscal 2018); and

5. OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES, FULL COST METHOD (continued)

 

Godin Property (continued)

 

If the Company fails to make timely payment of any of the milestone payments, and does not remedy such failure within 30 days of receipt of written notice from the vendor, the vendor may elect either of the following:

 

a. Have Colony re-convey the assets to one of the project vendors; or

b. Receive 250,000 common shares of the Company (subject to the availability of a registration exemption).

 

As at November 30, 2019, the Company is obligated to issue 2,000,000 common shares valued at $3,600,000 to one of the vendors of Colony which holds rights in the Godin property. These shares are to be issued on each of the second and third anniversaries of the closing date. 1,000,000 shares due on the second anniversary cannot currently be issued due to the CTO issued to the Company (Note 1).

Black Dragon Property

 

In March 2017, the Company entered into a purchase and sale agreement (the “Black Dragon PSA”), subsequently amended, to acquire a 75% working interest in and to certain leases, hydrocarbons, wells, agreements, equipment, surface rights agreements and assignable permits at an 80% net revenue interest located in the Moenkopi formation of the Carbon and Emery Counties, Utah (the “Black Dragon Property”). In August 2017 and May 2019, the Company entered into an amendment to the Black Dragon PSA (the “Black Dragon Amendment”), which amended the terms of the Black Dragon PSA. Under the Black Dragon Amendment, the Company is required to pay the vendor cash consideration totaling $3,900,000 (the “Black Dragon Cash Consideration”) based upon the following schedule:

 

	●	$100,000 as a non-refundable deposit within 10 business days of closing (paid);
	●	the balance of the Black Dragon Cash Consideration by payment to the vendor of an amount equal to 12.5% of any funds received by the Company from any equity, debt or convertible financing thereof (each, a “Financing”) upon the closing of each Financing until such amount is paid. In addition: (a) the first $1,500,000 raised by the Company will be exempt from a 12.5% payment to the vendor if such amount is received prior to the Company’s listing on a stock exchange; and (b) the full Black Dragon Cash Consideration is required to be paid in full no later than May 1, 2020 regardless of the amount of funds paid in connection with one or more Financings.

 

In addition to revising the Black Dragon Cash Consideration as set out above, the Company has agreed to: (a) issue 250,000 common shares of the Company to the vendor on or prior to September 1, 2017 (issued at a value of $625,000); and (b) pay the vendor an additional $25,000 every sixty days commencing September 1, 2017 ($325,000 incurred) until such time as the Black Dragon Cash Consideration is paid in full. Furthermore, as part of the May 2019 amendment, the Company is required to issue 300,000 shares of the Company to the vendor.

 

The Company has received an extension on the bi-monthly $25,000 payment to February 1, 2020 and the Company is currently in negotiations to amend the terms of the acquisition.

 

Within 10 business days after the later of the Company paying the Black Dragon Cash Consideration in full or the Company meeting in full its carry obligation, the vendor will convey to the Company an undivided 75% of the Vendor’s right, title and interest in and to the assets, at an 80% Net Revenue Interest in the assets.

Rolling Rock Property (continued)

 

Within 10 business days after the later of the Company paying the Rolling Rock Cash Consideration in full or the Company meeting in full its carry obligation, the vendor agrees to convey to the Company an undivided 75% of the vendor’s right, title and interest in and to the Leases, or a 80% net revenue interest in the Leases. Notwithstanding this transfer, within 10 business days after the later of payment of $300,000 on or before May 1, 2020 (which amount is in addition to the deposit and included in the Rolling Rock Cash Consideration set out above) and the replacement of the vendor’s bonds (completed), the vendor agrees to convey to the Company an undivided 25% of the vendor’s right, title and interest in and to the Cisco Dome leases and related assets. However, if the Company fails to timely meet any of its obligations under the Rolling Rock PSA, after having taken assignment of the Cisco Dome leases and assets, then, if the vendor elects in its sole discretion, the Company is required to reassign the Cisco Dome leases and assets to the vendor without any additional encumbrances.

 

Carry Obligation

	●	Subscription of 976,753 units of Asia Pacific for a purchase price of $500,000 on or prior to March 2, 2017 (completed);
	●	Subscription of 976,753 units of Asia Pacific for a purchase price of $500,000 on or prior to March 16, 2017 (completed);

6. RIGHTS TO THE ACQUISITION OF MINERAL EXPLORATION PROJECT (continued)

 

Upon the closing of the Final Funding Tranche, the Company will have earned the Option.

 

Once it has exercised the Option, the Company may, at its discretion, require Asia Pacific to transfer the Project Subsidiary to another Canadian publicly listed company to be selected by the Company (“Acquisition Co.”) (if the Project Subsidiary is not transferred to another Canadian publicly listed company, Acquisition Co. means the Company) for an exercise price consisting of $7,000,000 in cash and thirty percent of the issued and outstanding share capital of Acquisition Co. (calculated on a fully diluted basis, excluding up to 10% in stock options, but including shares Acquisition Co. may have issued in order to raise the exercise price of $7,000,000 and an additional $5,000,000 in working capital). Half of the cash portion of the exercise price must be paid upon exercise of the Option; the balance is to be paid on the first anniversary of the exercise and is to be evidenced by a one-year secured term note. Although the Company has the right to select Acquisition Co., it must select a Canadian publicly listed company that meets certain criteria – at exercise of the Option, Acquisition Co. must have less than $100,000 in liabilities and $5,000,000 or more in working capital and Asia Pacific will have the right to nominate 30% of its directors.

13. PROPOSED TRANSACTION

 

In September 2018, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Agreement”) with a major Canadian oil and gas company to purchase a 100% working interest in three oil leases in north central Alberta, Canada (the “Transaction”).

 

As consideration for the oil leases, the Company has agreed to pay a purchase price of C$3,000,000 plus applicable taxes, $152,306 (C$200,000) of which was paid as an initial deposit upon the execution of the Agreement. The Company and the vendor subsequently entered into an extension agreement whereby the closing date of the Transaction was extended to a date on or before February 19, 2020 and a total deposit of $379,894 (C$500,000) (February 28, 2019 - $229,994) has been paid (net of a previously issued deposit cheque returned to the Company). If the CTO is not removed by January 27, 2020, the agreement will be considered to be in default. Further, if the CTO is removed before January 27, 2020, the Company is required to pay C$200,000 within 15 days of the removal.

 

14. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

 

The estimated fair values for financial instruments are determined based on relevant market information. These estimates involve uncertainties and cannot be determined with precision. The estimated fair value of cash, receivables, deposit, due from related parties, investment in Asia Pacific Mining Ltd, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, due to related parties, related party loan payable and notes payable approximate their carrying value due to the short-term nature of those instruments.

 

ASC 820 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 820 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:

 

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are either directly or indirectly observable; and

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, therefor requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions about the assumption that market participants would use in pricing.

 

The Company had certain level 3 assets required to be recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in accordance with US GAAP as at November 30, 2019. As at November 30, 2019, the Company’s Level 3 assets consist of shares and warrants of a private company (Note 3). The resulting level 3 assets have no active market and are required to be measured at their fair value each reporting period based on information that is unobservable. As at November 30, 2019, the fair value of the level 3 assets was equal to $1,500,000 with their fair value based on the price paid to acquire the investment.

The Company’s counsel has applied to the Court seeking dismissal of the Action, which application is pending. Management believes the likelihood of an unfavorable judgment against the Company is low; as such, no amounts have been recorded as at November 30, 2019.

Effective at the opening on August 23, 2018, shares of our common stock were approved for trading on the TSX Venture Exchange in Canada under the symbol “FTM”. We were approved for listing as a Tier 2 Oil and Gas Reserves Issuer.

 

On August 23, 2018, we appointed Konstantine Vatskalis, Sandra Perry, William Via and Brett Matich as directors of the Company and Robert DaCunha resigned as a director of the Company. The Company’s board of directors was comprised of Marc Bruner, Michael Caetano, Konstantine Vatskalis, Sandra Perry, William Via and Brett Matich.

 

On September 21, 2018, we dismissed Dale Matheson Carr-Hilton LaBonte LLP (“DMCL”) as our company’s independent registered public accounting firm and appointed Davidson & Company LLP (“Davidson”) as our company’s independent registered public accounting firm.

On September 26, 2018, we entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Agreement”) with a major Canadian oil and gas company to purchase a 100% working interest in three heavy oil leases (the “Oil Leases”) covering a total of 20,719 hectares (51,200 acres) of heavy oil in north central Alberta (the “Transaction”). The rights to the Oil Leases, cover heavy oil of 12-16 API located near the top of the Viking formation to the base of the Woodbend Group.

 

The acquisition of the Oil Leases complements the Company’s existing land holdings of 12,800 acres directly adjacent to and to the south of the Oil Leases. Upon completion of the Transaction, we will own over 62,000 acres of which 48,000 is contiguous land containing extensive heavy oil deposits within the main producing horizon, the Wabiskaw formation, along with a secondary horizon, namely the McMurray formation.

The closing of the Transaction was expected to occur on November 15, 2018 with an option to extend the closing date 60 days upon payment of an additional deposit of CDN$100,000. In November 2018, the Company exercised the option and extended the closing of the Transaction to January 14, 2019 with a payment of CDN$100,000. The Company and the vendor subsequently entered into an extension agreement whereby the closing date of the Transaction was extended to a date on or before February 19, 2020 and a total deposit of CDN$500,000 has been paid. The Agreement was entered into on September 26, 2018 but is effective as of August 1, 2018.

 

In addition to the Oil Leases, upon closing of the Transaction, we will also obtain all rights, titles and interests to certain wells and facilities (as set out in the Agreement) located on the Oil Leases. The expiry dates for the three Oil Leases are as follows:

 

	●	September 29, 2028;
	●	January 26, 2029; and
	●	March 9, 2029

 

On July 2, 2019, Sandra Perry resigned as a director of the Company.

 

 

On September 23, 2019, the Company entered into a non-binding term sheet with an arm’s length party (the “Farmee”), pursuant to which the parties agreed to farm-out a portion of the Rolling Rock Property, and to establish a joint venture, subject to the entry of a definitive transaction agreement. Pursuant to the term sheet, the Farmee will commit up to $15,000,000 (the “Commitment Amount”) in up to ten tranches (each, a “Tranche”) in exchange for a 100% operating interest in certain wells located on the Rolling Rock Property (the “Operating Interest”). Upon full payout of the Commitment Amount, the Company will be entitled to a 20% interest in the income generated from the Farmee’s activities, which interest shall be increased to 25% following a 2.0x return of capital of the Farmee’s investment (the “Carry Structure”). The Operating Interest will be conveyed to the Farmee upon the execution of the Definitive Agreement for the Obligation Tranche and upon affirmative election by the Farmee to proceed with any Subsequent Tranche.

 

A subsidiary of the Farmee, in collaboration with the Company and Rolling Rock, is anticipated to be the operator upon formation of the joint venture in regards to the participating wells. All costs related to the wellbores subsequent to re-entry, including plugging and abandonment costs, will be borne in proportion to the carry structure at the time of commencement of wellbore operations. No additional midstream fees are to be charged by the Company, Rolling Rock, any related party or affiliate thereof to the Farmee that are in excess of, or including a margin on top of the necessary operating expenses incurred to gather, compress, process, dehydrate, treat, and/or transport gas to sale. The joint venture and all gas produced as a direct result of the Farmee, the Company and Rolling Rock’s activities will have primary service that takes precedent over any third party gas produce from the subject wells.

 

The Oil Leases

 

We have commenced the consultation process with the Alberta Energy Regulator (AER) and other Alberta government agencies, along with Bigstone Cree Nation, a First Nations band party to Treaty Eight and other interested stakeholders. Accordingly, participation in the consultation process is a pre-requisite to commencing operations on the Oil Leases. Assuming closing of the Transaction, we hope to commence initial drilling and work in the first quarter of 2021, once the consultation process has been completed.

 

Compeer Oil and Gas Operations

 

As of November 30, 2019, we have incurred $732,684 in exploration costs to drill, complete and equip the Test Well. We also recorded $31,907 in asset retirement obligations related to the future plugging and abandonment of the Test Well.

 

As at January 9, 2020, it is too early to provide stabilized production forecasts.

 

Future Development Costs for Compeer

 

During fiscal 2020/2021, we plan to focus on the exploration and drilling of the Farmout Lands, identify and complete additional asset acquisition(s), and pursue joint venture agreements with third parties to explore for oil and gas in Canada and the United States.

 

Colony Energy

 

On April 7, 2017, we entered into and closed two Membership Interest Purchase Agreements with three vendors to acquire all the membership interests of Colony Energy, LLC (“Colony Energy”), a Nevada limited liability company. Colony Energy holds a 100% interest in and to certain petroleum, natural gas and general rights, including Alberta Crown Petroleum and Oil Leases, in 20 contiguous sections totaling 12,960 acres located in the Godin area of northern Alberta.

 

The Company intends to develop the Godin Project in three phases beginning with a four well vertical, followed by a four section pad development of 10 wells per pad/per section. Phase 3 is intended to be the full development of 20 sections.

 

In consideration for the acquisition of Colony Energy, we issued an aggregate of 21,000,000 shares of our common stock to the three vendors on the closing date and agreed to issue an additional 3,000,000 shares on a post-closing basis with 1,000,000 shares to be issued to one of the vendors on the first (issued), second and third anniversaries of the closing date.

 

 

Colony Energy is a party to a Petroleum, Natural Gas and General Rights Conveyance dated as of March 31, 2017 with an arm’s length vendor and the principal shareholder thereof, pursuant to which the vendor is entitled to receive certain milestone payments from Colony Energy in the aggregate amount of up to $210,000 as partial consideration for the original purchase of the oil and gas assets described above. Pursuant to a Milestone Payment Addendum dated April 7, 2017, we agreed that if Colony Energy fails to make timely payment of any milestone payment and does not remedy such failure within 30 days after receipt of written notice from the vendor, the vendor may elect to: (i) have Colony Energy re-convey the purchased assets to the vendor; or (ii) receive 250,000 shares of our common stock, with such re-conveyance or issuance of shares to be in full and final satisfaction of all obligations to make any further milestone payment.

 

Black Dragon

 

On April 12 2017, we entered into and closed a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Black Dragon MPA”) with two vendors to acquire all membership interest of Black Dragon Energy, LLC (“Black Dragon”), a Nevada limited liability company. Black Dragon has the right to acquire a 75% working interest in and to certain leases, hydrocarbons, wells, agreements, equipment, surface rights agreements and assignable permits totaling approximately 165,000 acres (258 sections) at an 80% net revenue interest located in the Moenkopi formation of the Carbon and Emery Counties, Utah.

 

In consideration for the acquisition of Black Dragon, we issued an aggregate of 20,000,000 shares of our common stock to the two vendors on the closing date and paid $100,000 prior to the closing as a non-refundable deposit.

 

Black Dragon’s sole asset consists of the rights and obligations arising from a Purchase and Sale Agreement dated effective March 1, 2017 (the “Black Dragon PSA”) between an arm’s length vendor and Black Dragon.

 

On August 17, 2017, we entered into a first amendment to purchase and sale agreement (the “Black Dragon Amendment”), which amended the terms of the Black Dragon PSA. The Black Dragon Amendment had the effect of postponing certain payments relating to the Moenkopi Formation under the Black Dragon PSA until December 31, 2018 while providing for the flexibility of earlier payments in the discretion of our Company. In consideration for the postponement of such payments, we have agreed to certain additional interim payments and stock consideration as set forth below.

 

Under the Black Dragon Amendment, we agreed to pay the vendor cash consideration totaling $3.9 million (the “Black Dragon Cash Consideration”) rather than the original US$2.7 million based upon the following revised payment schedule:

 

	●	$100,000 as a non-refundable deposit within 10 business days of closing (completed and unchanged); and
	●	the balance of the Black Dragon Cash Consideration by payment to the vendor of an amount equal to 12.5% of any funds received by our Company from any equity, debt or convertible financing thereof (each, a “Financing”) upon the closing of each Financing until such amount is paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing: (a) the first US$1.5 million raised by our Company will be exempt from a 12.5% payment to the vendor if such amount is received prior to our listing on a stock exchange; and (b) the full Black Dragon Cash Consideration is required to be paid in full no later than December 31, 2018 (later extended to the Black Dragon Payment Deadline as described below) regardless of the amount of funds paid in connection with one or more Financings. This change modified the original requirement to pay $900,000 on or before September 1, 2017, $900,000 on or before March 1, 2018 and $800,000 on or before September 1, 2018.

 

In addition to revising the Black Dragon Cash Consideration as set out above, we have agreed to: (a) issue 250,000 common shares of the Company to the vendor on or prior to September 1, 2017 (issued on September 1, 2017); and (b) pay the vendor an additional $25,000 every sixty days commencing September 1, 2017 until such time as the Black Dragon Cash Consideration is paid in full.

 

On May 28, 2018, we entered into a second amendment to purchase and sale agreement (the “Black Dragon Second Amendment”), which amended the terms of the Black Dragon PSA. The Black Dragon Second Amendment has the effect of postponing certain payments relating to the Moenkopi formation under the Black Dragon PSA until August 1, 2019, provided that, if the shares of common stock of our company were not listed on the TSX Venture Exchange on or before August 1, 2018, the payment deadline was to remain December 31, 2018.

 

On August 16, 2018, but effective as of March 1, 2017, we entered into a third amendment to purchase and sale agreement (the “Black Dragon Third Amendment”), which amended the terms of the Black Dragon PSA.

 

 

On May 16, 2019, but effective as of March 1, 2017, we entered into a fourth amendment to purchase and sale agreement (the “Black Dragon Fourth Amendment”), which amended the terms of the Black Dragon PSA. The Black Dragon Fourth Amendment has the effect of:

 

	●	postponing payment of the remaining US$3.8 million owed under the Black Dragon PSA relating to the Moenkopi Formation until receipt of the proceeds of one or more financings by the Company, in which case the Company must pay 12.5% of the proceeds of each financing close until payment in full;
	●	extending the outside date of full payment of the remaining US$3.8 million to May 1, 2020 (the “Black Dragon Payment Deadline”);
	●	extending the “Obligation Deadline” for drilling obligations to May 1, 2020;
	●	requiring the Company to re-enter and perform workover operations reasonably aimed at cleaning out the bore of the Wellington Flats Well and restoring that well to production on or prior to May 1, 2020; and
	●	extending the deadline for bond replacement to July 1, 2019.

 

In consideration of the various extensions provided for under the Black Dragon Fourth Amendment, the Company has agreed to issue 300,000 common shares to the vendor at a deemed price of $1.50 per common share.

 

Carry Obligation

 

Under the Black Dragon PSA, and in addition to the cash consideration, Black Dragon has agreed to pay all costs and expenses incurred on the assets with respect to any and all exploration, development and production during the carry period. The “Carry Period” continues until the later of either (i) the date that Black Dragon pays the full cash consideration set out above or (ii) the date that Black Dragon pays all costs and expenses for the drilling, logging, testing and completion two new wells, each well with a horizontal leg extending at least 2,000’ in the target zone within the Moenkopi formation (the “Two Obligation Wells”). Black Dragon is required to drill to completion or cause to be drilled to completion (or plugging and abandonment) the Two Obligation Wells on or before May 1, 2020, failing which, Black Dragon’s right to earn any assignment in and to the assets will terminate immediately. For each vertical well drilled to 200 feet below the top of the Kaibab formation through completion (or plugging or abandonment) within a Federal Unit, the obligation deadline will be amended to the later of (i) the current obligation deadline or (ii) 6 months from the date the rig that drilled such vertical well to total depth has been removed from the wellsite.

 

Within 10 business days after the later of Black Dragon paying the cash consideration in full or Black Dragon meeting in full its carry obligation, the vendor will convey to Black Dragon an undivided 75% of the Vendor’s right, title and interest in and to the assets, at an 80% Net Revenue Interest in the assets as further described in the Black Dragon PSA.

 

On August 24, 2017, our company indirectly acquired a 75% interest in additional oil and gas leases in the Moenkopi formation covering a total of 3,852.41 acres. The leases were also acquired at the SITLA auction (the “State of Utah School and Institutional Trust Lands Administration”) and are in the region covered by an Area of Mutual Interest defined under the Black Dragon PSA, which incorporates a form of joint operating agreement that will govern the joint ownership of the newly acquired leases.

 

Rolling Rock

 

On April 17, 2017, we entered into and closed a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement with two vendors to acquire 100% membership interest of Rolling Rock Resources, LLC (“Rolling Rock”), a Nevada limited liability company. Rolling Rock has the right to acquire a 50% working interest in and to certain leases, hydrocarbons, wells, agreements, equipment, surface rights agreements and assignable permits totaling approximately 101,888 acres (160 sections) at an 80% net revenue interest located in the Mancos formation in the Southern Uinta Basin, Utah.

 

In consideration for the acquisition of Rolling Rock, we issued an aggregate of 20,000,000 shares of our common stock to the two vendors on the closing date and paid $100,000 prior to the closing as a non-refundable deposit.

 

 

Rolling Rock’s sole asset consists of the rights and obligations arising from a Purchase and Sale Agreement dated effective March 1, 2017, as amended (together, the “Rolling Rock PSA”), between an arm’s length vendor and Rolling Rock. Upon the satisfaction of the payments and obligations by Rolling Rock as set out below, the vendor has agreed to convey certain leases and related assets (the “Leases”) to Rolling Rock. The Leases include certain leases, hydrocarbons, wells, agreements, equipment, surface rights agreements and assignable permits all as further set out in the Rolling Rock PSA.

 

On August 17, 2017, we entered into a second amendment to purchase and sale agreement (the “Rolling Rock Amendment”), which amended the terms of the Rolling Rock PSA.

 

The Rolling Rock Amendment had the effect of postponing certain payments relating to the Mancos formation under the Rolling Rock PSA until December 31, 2018 while providing for the flexibility of earlier payments in the discretion of our Company. In consideration for the postponement of such payments, Rolling Rock agreed to certain additional interim payments and stock consideration as set forth below.

 

Under the Rolling Rock Amendment, Rolling Rock has agreed to pay the vendor cash consideration totaling $3.6 million (the “Rolling Rock Cash Consideration”) rather than the original $2.4 million based upon the following revised payment schedule:

 

	●	$100,000 as a non-refundable deposit within 5 business days of closing (completed and unchanged);
	●	the balance of the Rolling Rock Cash Consideration by payment to the vendor of an amount equal to 12.5% of any funds received by our Company from any Financing upon the closing of each Financing until such amount is paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing: (a) the first $1.5 million raised by our Company will be exempt from a 12.5% payment to the vendor if such amount is received prior to our listing on a stock exchange; and (b) the full Rolling Rock Cash Consideration is required to be paid in full no later than December 31, 2018 (later extended to the Rolling Rock Payment Deadline as described below) regardless of the amount of funds paid in connection with one or more Financings. This change modified the original requirement to pay $1.3 million on or before September 1, 2017, $500,000 on or before March 1, 2018 and $500,000 on or before September 1, 2018; and
	●	after payment of the Rolling Rock Cash Consideration, an additional payment of $300,000 (the “Workover Funds”) to the vendor which is payable by an amount equal to 12.5% of any funds received by our company from any Financing until the Workover Funds are paid in full.

 

In addition to revising the Rolling Rock Cash Consideration as set out above, we have agreed to: (a) issue 250,000 common shares of the Company to the vendor on or prior to September 1, 2017 (issued on September 1, 2017); and (b) pay the vendor an additional $25,000 every sixty days commencing September 1, 2017 until such time as the Rolling Rock Cash Consideration and the Workover Funds are paid in full.

 

On May 28, 2018, we entered into a third amendment to purchase and sale agreement (the “Rolling Rock Third Amendment”), which amended the terms of the Rolling Rock PSA. The Rolling Rock Third Amendment had the effect of postponing certain payments relating to the Mancos formation under the Rolling Rock PSA until August 1, 2019, provided that, if the shares of common stock of our company were not listed on the TSX Venture Exchange on or before August 1, 2018, the payment deadline was to remain December 31, 2018.

 

On August 16, 2018, but effective as of March 1, 2017, we entered into a fourth amendment to purchase and sale agreement (the “Rolling Rock Fourth Amendment”), which amended the terms of the Rolling Rock PSA.

 

 

On May 16, 2019, but effective as of March 1, 2017, we entered into a fifth amendment to purchase and sale agreement (the “Rolling Rock Fifth Amendment”), which amended the terms of the Rolling Rock PSA. The Rolling Rock Fifth Amendment has the effect of:

 

	●	increasing the percentage interest of all right, title and interest in and to the leases to be acquired by Rolling Rock from the vendor under the Rolling Rock PSA from 50% to 75%;
	●	postponing payment of the remaining US$5.3 million owed under the Rolling Rock PSA relating to the Mancos Formation until receipt of the proceeds of one or more financings by the Company, in which case the Company must pay 12.5% of the proceeds of each financing close until payment in full;
	●	extending payment of an additional US$300,000 as the Workover Funds on or before May 1, 2020 (which Workover Funds are separate from and in addition to the cash consideration of US$5.3 million);
	●	extending the outside date of full payment of the remaining US$5.3 million to May 1, 2020 (the “Rolling Rock Payment Deadline”);
	●	extending the “Obligation Deadline” for drilling obligations to May 31, 2020; and
	●	extending the deadline for bond replacement to July 1, 2019.

 

In consideration of the various extensions provided for under the Rolling Rock Fifth Amendment, the Company has agreed to issue 300,000 common shares to the vendor at a deemed price of $1.50 per common share.

 

Carry Obligation

 

Under the Rolling Rock PSA, and in addition to the cash consideration, Rolling Rock has agreed to pay all costs and expenses incurred on the Leases with respect to any and all exploration, development and production during the carry period. The “Carry Period” continues until the later of either (i) the date that Rolling Rock pays the full cash consideration set out above or (ii) the date that Rolling Rock pays all costs and expenses for the drilling, logging, testing and completion of three new wells in each of the three Federal Units, each well with a horizontal leg extending at least 1,000’ in the target zone within the Mancos formation (the “Three Obligation Wells”). Rolling Rock is required to drill to completion or cause to be drilled to completion (or plugging and abandonment) the Three Obligation Wells on or before May 1, 2020, failing which, Rolling Rock’s right to earn any assignment in and to the Leases will terminate immediately. For each vertical well drilled to the top of the Dakota formation through completion (or plugging or abandonment) within a Federal Unit, the obligation deadline will be amended to the later of (i) the current obligation deadline or (ii) 6 months from the date the rig that drilled such vertical well to total depth has been removed from the wellsite.

 

The obligation well in the Grand Mancos Unit will be a vertical well drilled to a depth sufficient to test the Granite Walsh formation within such Federal Unit. For this well, completion (or plugging and abandonment) is expected to take place no later than 2 months after the rig that drilled to total depth has been removed from the wellsite and for a period of 6 months after completion of this obligation well (or plugging and abandonment), and Rolling Rock will have the exclusive option to purchase an additional 25% of the vendor’s right, title and interest in and to the leases with respect to the Granite Walsh formation within the boundary of the Grand Mancos Unit for an additional payment of $10 million.

 

Within 10 business days after the later of Rolling Rock paying the cash consideration in full or Rolling Rock meeting in full its carry obligation, the vendor agreed to convey to Rolling Rock an undivided 75% of the vendor’s right, title and interest in and to the Leases, or a 80% net revenue interest in the Leases as further described in the Rolling Rock PSA. Notwithstanding this transfer, within 10 business days after the later of payment of $300,000 on or before May 1, 2020 (which amount is in addition to the deposit and included in the cash consideration set out above) and the replacement of the vendor’s bonds on or before July 1, 2019, the vendor agreed to convey to Rolling Rock an undivided 75% of the vendor’s right, title and interest in and to the Cisco Dome leases and related assets as further set out in the Rolling Rock PSA. However, if Rolling Rock fails to timely meet any of its obligations under the Rolling Rock PSA, after having taken assignment of the Cisco Dome leases and assets, then, if the vendor elects in its sole discretion, Rolling Rock is required to reassign the Cisco Dome leases and assets to the vendor without any additional encumbrances.

 

 

On August 24, 2017, our company indirectly acquired an undivided 75% interest in additional oil and gas leases in the Mancos formation covering a total of 2,313.09 acres. The leases were acquired at a SITLA auction. Pursuant to the Rolling Rock PSA, the parties have agreed to enter into a joint operating agreement covering the new leases, which are outside the AMI (Area of Mutual Interest) of their original joint venture lease holdings.

 

Based on a separate transaction, our company and the vendor have acquired an additional 5,174 acres in the Mancos formation and hold a 50/50 partnership, which is part of the AMI and its original agreement.

 

City of Gold

 

On May 17, 2017, we acquired 100% of the membership interest in City of Gold, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company, from two Nevada limited liability companies pursuant to a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement dated as of May 17, 2017. The Membership Interest Purchase Agreement provides for a total purchase price consisting of an aggregate of 30,000,000 common shares in the capital of our company. 15,000,000 of these shares were issued at closing (7,500,000 to each transferor); the other 15,000,000 shares are to be issued within ten Business Days after City of Gold, LLC earns the Option (as defined below).

 

City of Gold, LLC’s sole asset consists of 2,930,259 common shares and 2,930,259 share purchase warrants in the capital of Asia Pacific Mining Limited (“Asia Pacific”) and its rights under a binding financing and option agreement (the “Option Agreement”) with Asia Pacific and an individual named Nyi Nyi Lwin. City of Gold, LLC’s only liabilities consist of three demand notes for an aggregate of $1,500,000.

 

Under the Option Agreement, Asia Pacific and Nyi Nyi Lwin have agreed to grant to City of Gold, LLC the option (the “Option”) to purchase 100% of the ownership interest in a wholly-owned subsidiary of Asia Pacific (the “Project Subsidiary”) which, in turn, owns 100% of the rights to the City of Gold mineral exploration project located in Myanmar which covers an area of approximately 465 square kilometers in close proximity to hydropower, water, and infrastructure to accommodate exploration and development of the property (the “City of Gold Project”). City of Gold, LLC will be granted the Option upon satisfaction of the following:

 

	●	Subscription of 976,753 units of Asia Pacific for a purchase price of $500,000 on or prior to March 2, 2017 (completed);
	●	Subscription of 976,753 units of Asia Pacific for a purchase price of $500,000 on or prior to March 16, 2017 (completed);
	●	Subscription of 976,753 units of Asia Pacific for a purchase price of $500,000 on or prior to April 28, 2017 (completed); and
	●	Subscription of 2,930,261 units of Asia Pacific for a purchase price of $1,500,000 (the “Final Funding Tranche”), due within 60 days of issuance of an exploration license for the City of Gold Project by the Government of Myanmar (the “License”).

 

Each share purchase warrant is exercisable for a term equal to the greater of two years from the closing of the Final Funding Tranche or 18 months from the issuance of the License at an exercise price of $0.51 for the first year and $1.02 for the second year. Asia Pacific utilized $500,000 of the initial three tranches towards an exploration program of the City of Gold Project. Asia Pacific is required to use all proceeds for the Final Funding Tranche towards exploration of the Project Subsidiary’s mining interests, including no less than $500,000 towards drilling the City of Gold Project (the “Drilling Program”). Upon the closing of the Final Funding Tranche, City of Gold, LLC will have earned the Option. We anticipate that the normal course of receiving the License will take longer than 12 months. As a result, we do not anticipate commencing the Drilling Program or incurring additional expenses related to the project within the next 12 month period. We anticipate holding our interest in the City of Gold Project for the long term. If circumstances warrant, we intend to exercise the Option by transferring the City of Gold Project into a subsidiary (“Spinco”) with the aim of completing a “spin-off” transaction of its anticipated 70% interest in Spinco under the plan of arrangement provisions in accordance with applicable securities and corporate laws in order to realize a benefit for our company and/or our stockholders.

 

 

Once City of Gold, LLC has earned the Option, it will have the right to exercise the Option for a period of 120 days from completion of the Drilling Program, which City of Gold, LLC can extend for an additional 120 days if it can demonstrate that all conditions to exercise of the Option are complete other than approval from the applicable stock exchange upon which the shares of Spinco are to be listed. To exercise the Option, Asia Pacific has agreed to transfer the Project Subsidiary to Spinco for an exercise price consisting of $7,000,000 in cash and 30% of the issued and outstanding share capital of Spinco (calculated on a fully diluted basis, excluding up to 10% in stock options, but including shares Spinco may have issued in order to raise the exercise price of $7,000,000 and an additional $5,000,000 in working capital). Half of the cash portion of the exercise price must be paid upon exercise of the Option; the balance is to be paid on the first anniversary of the exercise and is to be evidenced by a one-year secured term note. Although City of Gold, LLC has the right to select Spinco, Spinco must meet the following criteria: at exercise of the Option, Spinco must have less than $100,000 in liabilities and $5,000,000 or more in working capital and Asia Pacific will have the right to nominate 30% of its directors. Although we currently anticipate that the exercise of the Option will be structured as a “spin-off” transaction, we have the flexibility under the Option Agreement to structure the transaction in other ways provided the conditions to exercise are met. However, we anticipate that such a structure will result in the most efficient way to monetize our interest in the City of Gold Project at this time.

Current Liabilities		$	2,777,317			$	1,290,159
Working Capital (Deficiency)		$	(2,600,912	)		$	(1,160,498	)

 

We had cash of $66,597 and a working capital deficiency of $2,600,912 as of November 30, 2019 compared to cash of $35,171 and working capital deficiency of $1,160,498 as of February 28, 2019.

 

We anticipate general and administrative expense, excluding impairment of oil and gas property, if any, will be higher than fiscal 2019 during the remainder of fiscal 2020. In connection with oil and gas operations and the listing on TSX Venture Exchange, we increased the number of directors. As a result, we estimate our general and administrative expense will be higher in fiscal 2020.

 

Our company’s cash will not be sufficient to meet our working capital requirements for the next twelve month period. Our company plans to raise the capital required to satisfy our immediate short-term needs and additional capital required to meet our estimated funding requirements for the next twelve months primarily through the issuance of our equity securities. There is no assurance that our company will be able to obtain further funds required for our continued working capital requirements. The ability of our company to meet our financial liabilities and commitments is primarily dependent upon the continued financial support of our directors and shareholders, the continued issuance of equity to new shareholders, and our ability to achieve and maintain profitable operations.

 

There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as the continuation of our business is dependent upon obtaining further long-term financing, successful exploration of our property interests, the identification of reserves sufficient enough to warrant development, successful development of our property interests and, finally, achieving a profitable level of operations. The issuance of additional equity securities by us could result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments.

 

Due to the uncertainty of our ability to meet our current operating and capital expenses, in their report on our audited financial statements for the year ended February 28, 2019, our independent auditors included an explanatory paragraph regarding substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our statements contain additional note disclosures describing the circumstances that lead to this disclosure by our independent auditors.

Cash Used in Operating Activities

 

Our cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended November 30, 2019, compared to our cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended November 30, 2018, increased by $62,799, primarily due to increase in general and administrative expenses but offset by accrued interest expense.

 

Cash Used in Investing Activities

 

Our cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended November 30, 2019, compared to our cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended November 30, 2018, decreased by $260,873 due to lower expenditures on oil and gas properties and deferred acquisition costs.

 

Cash Provided by Financing Activities

 

Our cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended November 30, 2019, compared to our cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended November 30, 2018, decreased by $49.826, primarily due to notes payable financing completed in the current period.

 

Contractual Obligations

 

Our future contractual obligations as of November 30, 2019 consisted of the following:

 

		Payments due by period
Contractual Obligations		Total				Less than 1 Year				1-3 Years				3-5 Years				More than 5 Years
Note payable		$	1,148,778			$	1,148,778				-				-				-

Outstanding Shares, Options, Warrants

 

As of January 9, 2020, we have 122,571,156 shares of common stock outstanding, 2,000,000 stock options outstanding and 250,000 warrants outstanding.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no 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 our stockholders.

 

Going Concern

 

Our interim financial statements and information for the period ended November 30, 2019, have been prepared by our management on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. We have generated no significant revenues to date and have incurred a net loss of $1,278,463 during the nine month period ended November 30, 2019, and an accumulated deficit of $40,350,532 from inception. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue operating as a going concern. We cannot provide any assurance that we will ultimately achieve profitable operations or become cash flow positive, or raise additional funds through the sale of debt and/or equity.

 

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

Not applicable.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures”, as that term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e), promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our company’s reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 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 principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

As required by paragraph (b) of Rules 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, evaluated our company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. The ineffectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures was due to the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2019, filed on October 15, 2019.

 

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended November 30, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

 

 

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

 

Other than as disclosed below, we know of no material pending legal proceedings to which our company is a party or of which any of our properties is the subject. In addition, we do not know of any such proceedings contemplated by any governmental authorities.

 

We know of no material proceedings in which any of our directors, officers or affiliates, or any registered or beneficial stockholder is a party adverse to our company or has a material interest adverse to our company.

 

We were subject to the following claims:

 

Court/Registry		Date Instituted		Principal Parties		Description of Claim
Court of Queen’s Bench of Alberta		July 23, 2013		Plaintiff: Baker Hughes Canada Company; Defendant: Fortem Resources Inc., also known as Big Lake Energy Ltd.		A Statement of Claim was filed July 23, 2013, whereby the Plaintiff is suing the Defendant for the sum of CAD$281,267 representing the amount owing for oil-field services and equipment, including cementing and fishing products and services provided by the Plaintiff.   In December 2015, the Company reached a settlement agreement for a total of $149,784 (CAD$200,000) in eight equal monthly installments of $18,723 (CAD$25,000) starting February 1, 2016. Upon receipt of the final installment, the vendor agreed to discontinue the claim and provide a release to the Company. The Company only made one installment payment of CAD$25,000 applied against the original claim and the settlement agreement was defaulted. As a result, there was a balance owing of CAD$256,267 as at November 30, 2019.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

An investment in our common stock involves a number of very significant risks. You should carefully consider the following risks and uncertainties in addition to other information in this quarterly report in evaluating our company and our business before purchasing shares of our common stock. Our business, operating results and financial condition could be seriously harmed as a result of the occurrence of any of the following risks. You could lose all or part of your investment due to any of these risks. You should invest in our common stock only if you can afford to lose your entire investment.

 

 

Risks Related to Our Company

 

We have a history of losses and this trend may continue and may negatively impact our ability to achieve our business objectives.

 

We have experienced net losses since inception, and expect to continue to incur substantial losses for the foreseeable future. Our accumulated deficit was $40,350,532 as at November 30, 2019. We may not be able to generate significant revenues in the future. As a result, our management expects our business to continue to experience negative cash flow for the foreseeable future and cannot predict when, if ever, our business might become profitable. We will need to raise additional funds, and such funds may not be available on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. If we are unable to raise funds on acceptable terms, we may not be able to execute our business plan, take advantage of future opportunities, or respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated requirements. This may seriously harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

We have a limited operating history, which may hinder our ability to successfully meet our objectives.

 

We have a limited operating history upon which to base an evaluation of our current business and future prospects. We do not have an established history of operating producing properties or locating and developing properties that have oil and gas reserves. As a result, the revenue and income potential of our business is unproven. In addition, because of our limited operating history, we have limited insight into trends that may emerge and affect our business. Errors may be made in predicting and reacting to relevant business trends and we will be subject to the risks, uncertainties and difficulties frequently encountered by early-stage companies in evolving markets. We may not be able to successfully address any or all of these risks and uncertainties. Failure to adequately do so could cause our business, results of operations and financial condition to suffer.

 

Our operations and proposed exploration activities will require significant capital expenditures for which we may not have sufficient funding and if we do obtain additional financing, our existing shareholders may suffer substantial dilution.

 

We intend to make capital expenditures far in excess of our existing capital resources to develop, acquire and explore oil and gas properties. We intend to rely on funds from operations and external sources of financing to meet our capital requirements to continue acquiring, exploring and developing oil and gas properties and to otherwise implement our business plan. We plan to obtain additional funding through the debt and equity markets, but we can offer no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional funding when it is required or that it will be available to us on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. In addition, any additional equity financing may involve substantial dilution to our then existing shareholders.

 

The successful implementation of our business plan is subject to risks inherent in the oil and gas business, which if not adequately managed, could result in additional losses.

 

Our oil and gas operations are subject to the economic risks typically associated with exploration and development activities, including the necessity of making significant expenditures to locate and acquire properties and to drill exploratory wells. In addition, the availability of drilling rigs and the cost and timing of drilling, completing and, if warranted, operating wells is often uncertain. In conducting exploration and development activities, the presence of unanticipated pressure or irregularities in formations, miscalculations or accidents may cause our exploration, development and, if warranted, production activities to be unsuccessful. This could result in a total loss of our investment in a particular well. If exploration efforts are unsuccessful in establishing proved reserves and exploration activities cease, the amounts accumulated as unproved costs will be charged against earnings as impairments.

 

In addition, market conditions or the unavailability of satisfactory oil and gas transportation arrangements may hinder our access to oil and gas markets and delay our production. The availability of a ready market for our prospective oil and gas production depends on a number of factors, including the demand for and supply of oil and gas and the proximity of reserves to pipelines and other facilities. Our ability to market such production depends in substantial part on the availability and capacity of gathering systems, pipelines and processing facilities, in most cases owned and operated by third parties. Our failure to obtain such services on acceptable terms could materially harm our business. We may be required to shut in wells for lack of a market or a significant reduction in the price of oil or gas or because of inadequacy or unavailability of pipelines or gathering system capacity. If that occurs, we would be unable to realize revenue from those wells until arrangements are made to deliver such production to market.

 

 

Our future performance is dependent upon our ability to identify, acquire and develop oil and gas properties, the failure of which could result in under use of capital and losses.

 

Our future performance depends upon our ability to identify, acquire and develop additional oil and gas reserves that are economically recoverable. Our success will depend upon our ability to acquire working and revenue interests in properties upon which oil and gas reserves are ultimately discovered in commercial quantities, and our ability to develop prospects that contain proven oil and gas reserves to the point of production. Without successful acquisition and exploration activities, we will not be able to develop additional oil and gas reserves or generate revenues. We cannot provide you with any assurance that we will be able to identify and acquire additional oil and gas reserves on acceptable terms, or that oil and gas deposits will be discovered in sufficient quantities to enable us to recover our exploration and development costs or sustain our business.

 

The successful acquisition and development of oil and gas properties requires an assessment of recoverable reserves, future oil and gas prices and operating costs, potential environmental and other liabilities, and other factors. Such assessments are necessarily inexact and their accuracy inherently uncertain. In addition, no assurance can be given that our exploration and development activities will result in the discovery of additional reserves. Our operations may be curtailed, delayed or cancelled as a result of lack of adequate capital and other factors, such as lack of availability of rigs and other equipment, title problems, weather, compliance with governmental regulations or price controls, mechanical difficulties, or unusual or unexpected formations, pressures and or work interruptions. In addition, the costs of exploitation and development may materially exceed our initial estimates.

 

We have a very small management team and the loss of any member of our team may prevent us from implementing our business plan in a timely manner.

 

We have three executive officers and a limited number of additional consultants upon whom our success largely depends. We do not maintain key person life insurance policies on our executive officers or consultants, the loss of which could seriously harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. In such an event, we may not be able to recruit personnel to replace our executive officers or consultants in a timely manner, or at all, on acceptable terms.

 

Future growth could strain our personnel and infrastructure resources, and if we are unable to implement appropriate controls and procedures to manage our growth, we may not be able to successfully implement our business plan.

 

We may experience rapid growth in our operations, which will place a significant strain on our management, administrative, operational and financial infrastructure. Our future success will depend in part upon the ability of our management to manage growth effectively. This may require us to hire and train additional personnel to manage our expanding operations. In addition, we must continue to improve our operational, financial and management controls and our reporting systems and procedures. If we fail to successfully manage our growth, we may be unable to execute upon our business plan.

 

Market conditions or operation impediments may hinder our access to natural gas and oil markets or delay our production.

 

The marketability of production from our properties depends in part upon the availability, proximity and capacity of pipelines, natural gas gathering systems and processing facilities. This dependence is heightened where this infrastructure is less developed. Therefore, if drilling results are positive in certain areas of our oil and gas properties, a new gathering system would need to be built to handle the potential volume of gas produced. We might be required to shut in wells, at least temporarily, for lack of a market or because of the inadequacy or unavailability of transportation facilities. If that were to occur, we would be unable to realize revenue from those wells until arrangements were made to deliver production to market.

 

Our ability to produce and market natural gas and oil is affected and also may be harmed by:

 

	●	the lack of pipeline transmission facilities or carrying capacity;
	●	government regulation of natural gas and oil production;
	●	government transportation, tax and energy policies;
	●	changes in supply and demand; and
	●	general economic conditions.

 

 

We might incur additional debt in order to fund our exploration and development activities, which would continue to reduce our financial flexibility and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

 

If we incur indebtedness, the ability to meet our debt obligations and reduce our level of indebtedness depends on future performance. General economic conditions, oil and gas prices and financial, business and other factors affect our operations and future performance. Many of these factors are beyond our control. We cannot assure you that we will be able to generate sufficient cash flow to pay the interest on our current or future debt or that future working capital, borrowings or equity financing will be available to pay or refinance such debt. Factors that will affect our ability to raise cash through an offering of our capital stock or a refinancing of our debt include financial market conditions, the value of our assets and performance at the time we need capital. We cannot assure you that we will have sufficient funds to make such payments. If we do not have sufficient funds and are otherwise unable to negotiate renewals of our borrowings or arrange new financing, we might have to sell significant assets. Any such sale could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial results.

 

Our properties and/or future properties might not produce, and we might not be able to determine reserve potential, identify liabilities associated with the properties or obtain protection from sellers against them, which could cause us to incur losses.

 

Although we have reviewed and evaluated our properties in a manner consistent with industry practices, such review and evaluation might not necessarily reveal all existing or potential problems. This is also true for any future acquisitions made by us. Inspections may not always be performed on every well, and environmental problems, such as groundwater contamination, are not necessarily observable even when an inspection is undertaken. Even when problems are identified, a seller may be unwilling or unable to provide effective contractual protection against all or part of those problems, and we may assume environmental and other risks and liabilities in connection with the acquired properties.

 

If we or our operators fail to maintain adequate insurance, our business could be materially and adversely affected.

 

Our operations are subject to risks inherent in the oil and gas industry, such as blowouts, cratering, explosions, uncontrollable flows of oil, gas or well fluids, fires, pollution, earthquakes and other environmental risks. These risks could result in substantial losses due to injury and loss of life, severe damage to and destruction of property and equipment, pollution and other environmental damage, and suspension of operations. We could be liable for environmental damages caused by previous property owners. As a result, substantial liabilities to third parties or governmental entities may be incurred, the payment of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

 

Any prospective drilling contractor or operator which we hire will be required to maintain insurance of various types to cover our operations with policy limits and retention liability customary in the industry. We also have acquired our own insurance coverage for such prospects. The occurrence of a significant adverse event on such prospects that is not fully covered by insurance could result in the loss of all or part of our investment in a particular prospect which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

 

The oil and gas industry is highly competitive, and we may not have sufficient resources to compete effectively.

 

The oil and gas industry is highly competitive. We compete with oil and natural gas companies and other individual producers and operators, many of which have longer operating histories and substantially greater financial and other resources than we do, as well as companies in other industries supplying energy, fuel and other needs to consumers. Our larger competitors, by reason of their size and relative financial strength, can more easily access capital markets than we can and may enjoy a competitive advantage in the recruitment of qualified personnel. They may be able to absorb the burden of any changes in laws and regulation in the jurisdictions in which we do business and handle longer periods of reduced prices for oil and gas more easily than we can. Our competitors may be able to pay more for oil and gas leases and properties and may be able to define, evaluate, bid for and purchase a greater number of leases and properties than we can. Further, these companies may enjoy technological advantages and may be able to implement new technologies more rapidly than we can. Our ability to acquire additional properties in the future will depend upon our ability to conduct efficient operations, evaluate and select suitable properties, implement advanced technologies and consummate transactions in a highly competitive environment.

 

 

Complying with environmental and other government regulations could be costly and could negatively impact our production.

 

Our business is governed by numerous laws and regulations at various levels of government. These laws and regulations govern the operation and maintenance of our facilities, the discharge of materials into the environment and other environmental protection issues. Such laws and regulations may, among other potential consequences, require that we acquire permits before commencing drilling and restrict the substances that can be released into the environment with drilling and production activities.

 

Under these laws and regulations, we could be liable for personal injury, clean-up costs and other environmental and property damages, as well as administrative, civil and criminal penalties. Prior to commencement of drilling operations, we may secure limited insurance coverage for sudden and accidental environmental damages as well as environmental damage that occurs over time. However, we do not believe that insurance coverage for the full potential liability of environmental damages is available at a reasonable cost. Accordingly, we could be liable, or could be required to cease production on properties, if environmental damage occurs.

 

The costs of complying with environmental laws and regulations in the future may harm our business. Furthermore, future changes in environmental laws and regulations could result in stricter standards and enforcement, larger fines and liability, and increased capital expenditures and operating costs, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

 

Shortages of rigs, equipment, supplies and personnel could delay or otherwise adversely affect our cost of operations or our ability to operate according to our business plans.

 

If drilling activity increases in Alberta, Canada, Utah or the United States generally, a shortage of drilling and completion rigs, field equipment and qualified personnel could develop. The demand for and wage rates of qualified drilling rig crews generally rise in response to the increasing number of active rigs in service and could increase sharply in the event of a shortage. Shortages of drilling and completion rigs, field equipment or qualified personnel could delay, restrict or curtail our exploration and development operations, which could in turn harm our operating results.

 

We will be required to replace, maintain or expand our reserves in order to prevent our reserves and production from declining, which would adversely affect cash flows and income.

 

In general, production from natural gas and oil properties declines over time as reserves are depleted, with the rate of decline depending on reservoir characteristics. If we are not successful in our exploration and development activities, our proved reserves will decline as reserves are produced. Our future natural gas and oil production is highly dependent upon our ability to economically find, develop or acquire reserves in commercial quantities.

 

To the extent cash flow from operations is reduced, either by a decrease in prevailing prices for natural gas and oil, or an increase in exploration and development costs, and external sources of capital become limited or unavailable, our ability to make the necessary capital investment to maintain or expand our asset base of natural gas and oil reserves would be impaired. Even with sufficient available capital, our future exploration and development activities may not result in additional proved reserves, and we might not be able to drill productive wells at acceptable costs.

 

 

The oil and gas exploration and production industry historically is a cyclical industry and market fluctuations in the prices of oil and gas could adversely affect our business.

 

Prices for oil and gas tend to fluctuate significantly in response to factors beyond our control. These factors include:

 

	●	weather conditions;
	●	economic conditions, including demand for petroleum-based products;
	●	actions by OPEC, the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries;
	●	political instability in the Middle East and other major oil and gas producing regions;
	●	governmental regulations, both domestic and foreign;
	●	domestic and foreign tax policy;
	●	the pace adopted by foreign governments for the exploration, development, and production of their national reserves;
	●	the price of foreign imports of oil and gas;
	●	the cost of exploring for, producing and delivering oil and gas;
	●	the discovery rate of new oil and gas reserves;
	●	the rate of decline of existing and new oil and gas reserves;
	●	available pipeline and other oil and gas transportation capacity;
	●	the ability of oil and gas companies to raise capital;
	●	the overall supply and demand for oil and gas; and
	●	the availability of alternate fuel sources.

 

Changes in commodity prices may significantly affect our capital resources, liquidity and expected operating results. Price changes will directly affect revenues and can indirectly impact expected production by changing the amount of funds available to reinvest in exploration and development activities. Reductions in oil and gas prices not only reduce revenues and profits, but could also reduce the quantities of reserves that are commercially recoverable. Significant declines in prices could result in non-cash charges to earnings due to impairment.

 

Changes in commodity prices may also significantly affect our ability to estimate the value of producing properties for acquisition and divestiture and often cause disruption in the market for oil and gas producing properties, as buyers and sellers have difficulty agreeing on the value of the properties. Price volatility also makes it difficult to budget for and project the return on acquisitions and the exploration and development of projects. We expect that commodity prices will continue to fluctuate significantly in the future.

 

Our ability to produce oil and gas from our properties may be adversely affected by a number of factors outside of our control which may result in a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

 

The business of exploring for and producing oil and gas involves a substantial risk of investment loss. Drilling oil and gas wells involves the risk that the wells may be unproductive or that, although productive, the wells may not produce oil or gas in economic quantities. Other hazards, such as unusual or unexpected geological formations, pressures, fires, blowouts, loss of circulation of drilling fluids or other conditions may substantially delay or prevent completion of any well. Adverse weather conditions can also hinder drilling operations. A productive well may become uneconomic if water or other deleterious substances are encountered that impair or prevent the production of oil or gas from the well. In addition, production from any well may be unmarketable if it is impregnated with water or other deleterious substances. There can be no assurance that oil and gas will be produced from the properties in which we have interests. In addition, the marketability of oil and gas that may be acquired or discovered may be influenced by numerous factors beyond our control. These factors include the proximity and capacity of oil and gas, gathering systems, pipelines and processing equipment, market fluctuations in oil and gas prices, taxes, royalties, land tenure, allowable production and environmental protection. We cannot predict how these factors may affect our business.

 

 

We may be unable to retain our leases and working interests in our leases, which would result in significant financial losses to our company.

 

Our properties are held under oil and gas leases. If we fail to meet the specific requirements of each lease, such lease may terminate or expire. We cannot assure you that any of the obligations required to maintain each lease will be met. The termination or expiration of our leases may harm our business. Our property interests will terminate unless we fulfill certain obligations under the terms of our leases and other agreements related to such properties. If we are unable to satisfy these conditions on a timely basis, we may lose our rights in these properties. The termination of our interests in these properties may harm our business. In addition, we will need significant funds to meet capital requirements for the exploration activities that we intend to conduct on our properties.

 

Our Godin project is complex undertakings and may not be completed at our estimated cost or at all.

 

We, through our wholly owned subsidiary Colony Energy, LLC, holds a 100% interest in and to certain petroleum, natural gas and general rights, including Alberta Crown Petroleum and Oil Leases, in 20 contiguous sections totaling 12,960 acres located in the Godin area of northern Alberta. The Godin project is complex, subject to extensive governmental regulation and will require significant additional financing. There can be no assurance that the necessary governmental approvals will be granted or that such financing could be obtained on commercially reasonable terms or at all, or that if one or more of these projects are completed that they will be successful or that we realize a return on our investment.

 

Risks Related to Our Common Stock

 

A decline in the price of our common stock could affect our ability to raise further working capital and adversely impact our ability to continue operations.

 

A prolonged decline in the price of our common stock could result in a reduction in the liquidity of our common stock and a reduction in our ability to raise capital. Because a significant portion of our operations have been and will be financed through the sale of equity securities, a decline in the price of our common stock could be especially detrimental to our liquidity and our operations. Such reductions may force us to reallocate funds from other planned uses and may have a significant negative effect on our business plan and operations, including our ability to develop new properties and continue our current operations. If our stock price declines, we can offer no assurance that we will be able to raise additional capital or generate funds from operations sufficient to meet our obligations. If we are unable to raise sufficient capital in the future, we may not be able to have the resources to continue our normal operations.

 

The market price for our common stock may also be affected by our ability to meet or exceed expectations of analysts or investors. Any failure to meet these expectations, even if minor, may have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock.

 

If we issue additional shares in the future, it will result in the dilution of our existing shareholders.

 

Our articles of incorporation, as amended, authorize the issuance of up to 750,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001. Our board of directors may choose to issue some or all of such shares to acquire one or more businesses or to provide additional financing in the future. The issuance of any such shares will result in a reduction of the book value and market price of the outstanding shares of our common stock. If we issue any such additional shares, such issuance will cause a reduction in the proportionate ownership and voting power of all current shareholders. Further, such issuance may result in a change of control of our corporation.

 

 

Trading of our stock may be restricted by the Securities Exchange Commission’s penny stock regulations, which may limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock.

 

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted regulations which generally define “penny stock” to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our securities are covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors”. The term “accredited investor” refers generally to institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the Securities and Exchange Commission, which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account.

 

The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer’s confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities. We believe that the penny stock rules discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of our common stock.

 

The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or FINRA, has adopted sales practice requirements which may also limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock.

 

In addition to the “penny stock” rules described above, FINRA has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares.

 

Our common stock is illiquid and the price of our common stock may be negatively impacted by factors which are unrelated to our operations.

 

Our common stock currently trades on a limited basis on OTCQB operated by the OTC Markets Group and TSX Venture Exchange. Trading of our stock through OTCQB and TSX Venture Exchange is frequently thin and highly volatile. There is no assurance that a sufficient market will develop in our stock, in which case it could be difficult for shareholders to sell their stock. The market price of our common stock could fluctuate substantially due to a variety of factors, including market perception of our ability to achieve our planned growth, quarterly operating results of our competitors, trading volume in our common stock, changes in general conditions in the economy and the financial markets or other developments affecting our competitors or us. In addition, the stock market is subject to extreme price and volume fluctuations. This volatility has had a significant effect on the market price of securities issued by many companies for reasons unrelated to their operating performance and could have the same effect on our common stock.
