ITEM 1.  BUSINESS.

Overview of Business

We are an independent energy company engaged in the exploration for, and production of, crude oil and natural gas.  Our focus is on the development of a repeatable, low-geological risk, high-potential project in the active East Texas oil and gas region.  We currently hold interests in properties located in Cass and Marion Counties, Texas, home to the Rodessa oil field.  This field has historically been the domain of small independent operators and is not a legacy field for any major oil company.

Our business strategy in what we have designated the “Cornerstone Project”, is to identify and exploit resources in and adjacent to existing or indicated producing areas within the mature Rodessa field. We believe that we are uniquely familiar with the history and geology of the Cornerstone Project area based on our collective experience in the region as well as through our development and ownership of a large proprietary database which details the drilling history of the Cornerstone Project area since 1980.  We plan to develop and produce reserves at low cost and will take an aggressive approach to exploiting our contiguous acreage position through utilization of the latest “best in class” drilling and completion techniques.  In 2012, we drilled the Morse #1-H well targeting the Bossier formation and completed it using hydraulic fracture stimulation techniques.  The Morse #1-H is the first such horizontal well completed in the Rodessa field and we believe that implementing the latest proven drilling and completion techniques to exploit our geological insight in the Cornerstone Project area will enable us to find significant oil and gas reserves.

Corporate History

We previously operated under the name Maple Mountain Explorations, Inc. (“Maple Mountain”), a Nevada corporation.  On December 12, 2007, Maple Mountain entered into a share exchange agreement with the shareholders of PERC, pursuant to which we purchased from PERC’s shareholders all issued and outstanding shares of PERC’s common stock in consideration for the issuance of 17,500,000 shares of our common stock. Effective January 23, 2008, we changed our name to Pegasi Energy Resources Corporation.


Effective July 1, 2011, certain assets of our wholly-owned subsidiary, 59 Disposal Inc., (“59 Disposal”), were sold for a total of $1.3 million, of which we received $1,037,000.  59 Disposal owned an 80% undivided interest in a saltwater disposal facility which disposes saltwater and flow-back waste into subsurface storage.  Effective September 30, 2012, we legally closed 59 Disposal, and all remaining asset and liability balances were transferred to PERC at that date.
  
Our Operations
 
We began our leasing and farm-in activities in the Rodessa field area of the East Texas oil and gas basin in 2000. Our initial leasehold purchase was comprised of approximately 1,500 gross acres, which has grown to approximately 28,697 gross acres. We serve as operator of the Cornerstone Project with a working interest partner, TR Energy Inc. (“TR Energy”), a related party, to develop our acreage position in the Cornerstone Project. We hold an 80% working interest in the majority of our leases with TR Energy holding a 20% working interest in those leases.  We have a few leases in which we hold smaller interests ranging from 25% - 50% with TR Energy and other minority investors holding the remaining working interests.  As of March 1, 2014, we operated 20 wells, of which 15 were producing.

We conduct our main exploration and production operations through our wholly-owned subsidiary, POI.  We conduct additional pipeline operations through our other wholly-owned subsidiary, TR Rodessa.

TR Rodessa owns an 80% undivided interest in and operates a 40-mile natural gas pipeline and gathering system which we currently use to transport our hydrocarbons to market.  Excess capacity on this system is used to transport third-party hydrocarbons.

Our corporate strategy can be thought of in terms of the acquisition of leases and the development of resources on leased acreage.

Acquisition of Leases in the Cornerstone Project area

As of March 1, 2014, our leasehold position is approximately 28,697 gross acres and 17,898 net acres, of which our working interest is approximately 11,352 net acres.  Our acreage position declined, by approximately 3,000 gross acres and 1,624 net working interest acres, over the last 12 months.  This decline followed the expiration of leases, which we chose not to renew for strategic reasons.

·  
Supporting Our Drilling Program.  Our priority is now drilling, and consequently, our leasing program’s primary objective is to support our planned drilling program by securing holdout leases in those units where we plan to drill over the next twelve months and renewing leases that are due to expire in those units where we plan to drill.

·  
Acquiring Additional Drilling Locations.  We have an extensive proprietary database that we use to identify additional drilling locations and target acreage for acquisition in the Cornerstone Project area.  Most properties in the project area are held by smaller independent companies that lack the resources and expertise to develop them fully.  We intend to pursue these opportunities to selectively expand our portfolio of properties.  Acreage additions will complement our existing substantial acreage position in the area and provide us with additional drilling opportunities.
 

Development of Resources in the Cornerstone Project area

Approximately two-thirds of our net leased acreage is currently undeveloped (approximately 7,524 undeveloped net acres of a total of 11,352 net acres as of March 1, 2014). The primary focus of our drilling program is to develop the resources of these undeveloped acres and subsequently hold this acreage with production rather than to develop our existing reserves on developed acreage.
 
·  
Horizontal Wells Targeting the Bossier/Cotton Valley Limestone. Our priority is to drill horizontal wells targeting the Bossier/Cotton Valley Limestone.  We employ the latest horizontal drilling and dynamic multi-stage fracking techniques that have proven successful in the Bakken Shale in North Dakota and elsewhere, to develop the low permeability oil bearing Bossier and Cotton Valley Limestone formations.  Our first horizontal well, the Morse #1-H, was drilled with a 2,000 foot horizontal section. This well was completed with a fivestage frack and recorded an average production rate of 281 Bbl/day of high quality crude oil in its first five days of production. A jet pump system was initially employed to assist production and the well was later shut in for a period of 33 days between August and September 2012, for the installation of a gas lift production system. The well was shut in again on February 25, 2013, for the performance of a remedial work-over operation. The well returned to production on March 19, 2013. The production rate initially stabilized at a rate of approximately 55 Bbl/day of oil and 75 MCF of gas per day. The production rate subsequently declined to an average of 38 Bbl/day of oil as recorded in January 2014. This decline has been irregular and we have observed unexpected surges in production.  During a three day period in November 2013, production surged to a peak of 83 Bbl/day from the previous average of approximately 30 Bbl/day. In early February 2014, production surged to a peak rate of 74 Bbl/day of oil over a three day period and later surged to a peak rate of 72 Bbl/day of oil over an eight day period. Due to these surges, the average production of approximately 35 BB/day during February 2014 was the highest recorded production since July 2013.  These surges in production lead us to believe that the reservoir is capable of greater production, and that the Morse #1-H well’s production rate has been compromised by the gas lift system and/or by an obstruction in the well bore. We are actively researching an intervention and intend to perform a workover of the well, which may involve the installation of a mechanical pump to replace the gas lift system; no date has yet been set for such work.  We expect that it would take approximately 30 days to install such a mechanical pump system. We believe that the successful production of oil from the Morse #1-H supports our development strategy. We have learned much from the drilling, completion and production of the Morse #1-H that will enable us to improve the design and execution of our next planned horizontal well targeting the Bossier/Cotton Valley Limestone. Having proven our development model, we now plan to drill wells with longer laterals involving 15 frack stages to improve the well economics. We estimate that the drilling and completion costs of such wells will be approximately $7-$9 million. We are not currently capitalized to drill a program of such wells to develop the Bossier/Cotton Valley Limestone and are actively engaged in securing the finance to fund such a drilling program. We have a 56% working interest in the Morse #1-H well.
 
·  
Vertical Wells. Our secondary priority is to drill vertical wells to offset the Norbord #1 discovery of 2010 in the Travis Peak and to recomplete existing wells to maximize their present value by utilizing a multi-zone production technique.  In March 2012, we successfully completed the Haggard A well, which is an offset to the Norbord discovery in 2010. The Haggard A was our most productive gas well in 2013.  Following unsuccessful work-over attempts in 2013 on the Norbord #1, which ceased production from the Travis Peak formation in September 2012, we plugged and abandoned the well in February 2014.  We also decided to abandon the Swamp Fox well and plugged it in February 2014.
 
Well Economics
 
We plan to develop our non-producing proven reserves through the recompletion of existing wells and the drilling of new wells.  These non-producing proven reserves are attributed to the Travis Peak/Pettit, Cotton Valley and Bossier formations.

We plan to exploit the reserves outlined in the table above by recompleting existing vertical wells in the relatively shallow Travis Peak/Pettit formations at depths of between 6,000 and 7,800 feet.  These reserves are estimated to be 83% gas.  The estimated future development cost of these recompletions is estimated at approximately $3.4 million.  We estimate the finding and development cost of these recompletions at $0.39/Mcfe.

We plan to drill horizontal wells with lateral sections of 3,000 feet targeting the Bossier formation to recover the proved undeveloped reserves detailed in the table above.  These reserves are estimated to be 83% oil and their future development cost is estimated at $5.5 million.  The finding and development cost is estimated at $21.91/MBoe.

General

The estimated future development costs detailed above are components of the amounts disclosed in the supplemental oil and gas disclosures required by Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic No. 932, Extractive Activities—Oil and Gas.  We emphasize that reserve estimates are inherently imprecise and that estimates of reserves related to new discoveries are more imprecise than those for producing oil and gas properties.  Accordingly, the estimates are expected to change as future information becomes available.  The estimates have been prepared with the assistance of James E. Smith and Associates, an independent petroleum reservoir engineering firm.  The finding and development cost is the ratio of estimated future development costs to the estimated ultimate recovery. We use this ratio, with reference to the commodity price to evaluate the commercial viability of drilling a well. The limitation of this measure is that it is based on estimates that are inherently imprecise. The manner in which we have calculated the finding and development costs may differ from how other companies calculate a like measure.
 

In order to maximize our rate of return on our vertical wells, we plan on implementing a shotgun-dual or sawtooth production technique.  Under this technique, we will drill and complete multiple geologic horizons in a sequential manner as follows:

·  
We will initially complete and produce the lower Cotton Valley pay zone (~10,500 ft.);
 
·  
After producing the lower Cotton Valley zone for a period of time, we will move uphole to recomplete the upper Cotton Valley (~8,200 ft.), Travis Peak Zone (~7,500 ft.) and/or Pettit Zone (~6,500 ft.); and
 
·  
After producing the upper Cotton Valley, Travis Peak and/or Pettit Zones for a period of time, we will co-mingle all zones and produce through the end of the wells’ lives.

A productive well is an exploratory well, development well, producing well or well capable of production, but does not include a dry well.  A dry well, or a hole, is an exploratory or a development well found to be incapable of producing either oil or gas in sufficient quantities to justify completion as an oil or gas well.

A gross well is a well in which a working interest is owned, and a net well is the result obtained when the sum of fractional ownership working interests in gross wells equals one.  The number of gross wells is the total number of wells in which a working interest is owned, and the number of net wells is the sum of the fractional working interests owned in gross wells expressed as whole numbers and fractions thereof.  The “completion” of a well means the installation of permanent equipment for the production of oil or gas, or, in the case of a dry hole, to the reporting of abandonment to the appropriate agency.

Proved Undeveloped Reserves

The production performance of the Haggard A, which was completed in the Travis Peak and entered production in April 2013, has exceeded our expectations.  Based on the strong performance of the Haggard A, the estimated proved undeveloped reserves for the proposed Travis Peak wells that offset the Haggard and Norbord wells, have been revised upwards by the third party engineer. The increase from 2012 in the total estimated proved undeveloped reserves is detailed in the table below.

There were no material changes in our proved undeveloped reserves (“PUDs”) associated with other wells during 2013. See “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” regarding our progress to convert our PUDS to proved developed reserves. We are currently scheduled to drill these locations within the next five years.  We do not have material concentrations of PUDs in individual fields or countries that have remained undeveloped for five years or more after disclosure as PUDs.

The technical person in charge of the preparation and oversight of our reserve estimates is James E. Smith, a petroleum engineer who founded and is the president of a multi-disciplined engineering firm that offers a total package of services to the oil and gas industry in East Texas and other areas in the southwestern United States.  He has over 40 years of experience in the oil and gas industry.  A graduate of Texas A&M University, he worked 18 years for the Texas Railroad Commission serving as Field Operations Director, Hearing Examiner, Special Project Engineer in Austin, and as the District Director of both the Kilgore and Abilene District Offices. He is a member of the Society of Petroleum Engineers, the Society of Petroleum Evaluation Engineers, and the SPE Technical Information Group for economics and evaluations. He is a registered petroleum engineer in the state of Texas. He has extensive experience in economic and reservoir evaluation for acquisitions, producing properties and undeveloped prospects.  He also planned and supervised the drilling of wells that we drilled in the East Texas project. He is not an employee of ours and does not have an equity position in our oil and gas development.  We believe his independence allows him to be objective in the preparation and oversight of our reserve estimates.

The process for preparation of our oil and gas reserves estimates is completed in accordance with our prescribed internal control procedures, which include verification of data provided for the report and review of the independent third party reserves report.  The technical employee responsible for overseeing the process for preparation of the reserves estimates is our Chief Executive Officer, Michael H. Neufeld.  Mr. Neufeld holds a B.Sc. Degree in Geology from Louisiana State University and has worked in the oil and gas industry for over 40 years, including roles as Senior Exploration Geologist and Vice President of Exploration at various oil & gas companies, including Penzoil and Hunt Oil Company.  He is the sole person in the Company that reviews and approves the reserve estimates.
 

Title to Properties

As is customary in the oil and gas industry, only a preliminary title examination is conducted at the time we acquire leases or enter into other agreements to obtain control over interests in acreage believed to be suitable for drilling operations. In many instances, our partners have acquired rights to the prospective acreage and we have a contractual right to have our interests in that acreage assigned to us. In some cases, we are in the process of having those interests so assigned. Prior to the commencement of drilling operations, a thorough title examination of the drill site tract is conducted by independent attorneys. Once production from a given well is established, the operator will prepare a division order title report indicating the proper parties and percentages for payment of production proceeds, including royalties. We believe that titles to our leasehold properties are good and defensible in accordance with standards generally acceptable in the oil and gas industry.

Markets and Customers

The revenue generated by our operations is highly dependent upon the prices of, and demand for, natural gas and crude oil. Historically, the markets for crude oil and natural gas have been volatile and are likely to continue to be volatile in the future. The prices we receive for our crude oil and natural gas production are subject to wide fluctuations and depend on numerous factors beyond our control including seasonality, the condition of the United States economy (particularly the manufacturing sector), foreign imports, political conditions in other crude oil-producing and natural gas-producing countries, the actions of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and domestic regulation, legislation, and policies. Decreases in the prices of crude oil and natural gas have had, and could have in the future, an adverse effect on the carrying value of our proved reserves and our revenue, profitability, and cash flow from operations.

We currently have access to several interstate pipelines as well as local end users, however the market for oil and natural gas that we expect to produce depends on factors beyond our control, including the extent of domestic production and imports of oil and natural gas, the proximity and capacity of natural gas pipelines and other transportation facilities, demand for oil and natural gas, the marketing of competitive fuels and the effects of state and federal regulation. The oil and gas industry also competes with other industries in supplying the energy and fuel requirements of industrial, commercial, and individual consumers.

Our oil production is expected to be sold at prices tied to the spot oil markets. Our natural gas production is expected to be sold under short-term contracts and priced based on first of the month index prices or on daily spot market prices.
 
Regulation
 
Generally.  Our oil and gas exploration, production and related operations and activities are subject to extensive rules and regulations promulgated by federal, state and local governmental agencies. Failure to comply with such rules and regulations can result in substantial penalties. Because such rules and regulations are frequently amended or reinterpreted, we are unable to predict the future cost or impact of complying with such laws. Although the regulatory burden on the oil and gas industry increases our cost of doing business and, consequently, affects our profitability, these burdens generally do not affect us any differently or to any greater or lesser extent than they affect others in our industry with similar types, quantities and locations of production.
 
Regulations affecting production.  All of the states in which we operate generally require permits for drilling operations, require drilling bonds and reports concerning operations and impose other requirements relating to the exploration and production of oil and gas.  Such states also have statutes or regulations addressing conservation matters, including provisions for the unitization or pooling of oil and gas properties, the establishment of maximum rates of production from oil and gas wells, the spacing, plugging and abandonment of such wells, restrictions on venting or flaring gas and requirements regarding the ratability of production.
 
These laws and regulations may limit the amount of oil and gas we can produce from our wells and may limit the number of wells or the locations at which we can drill. Moreover, many states impose a production or severance tax with respect to the production and sale of oil and gas within their jurisdiction. States do not generally regulate wellhead prices or engage in other, similar direct economic regulation of production, but there can be no assurance they will not do so in the future.
 
In the event we conduct operations on federal, state or Indian oil and gas leases, our operations may be required to comply with additional regulatory restrictions, including various nondiscrimination statutes, royalty and related valuation requirements and on-site security regulations, and other appropriate permits issued by the Bureau of Land Management or other relevant federal or state agencies.
 
Regulations affecting sales.  The sales prices of oil and gas are not presently regulated but rather are set by the market.  We cannot predict, however, whether new legislation to regulate the price of energy commodities might be proposed, what proposals, if any, might actually be enacted by Congress or the various state legislatures and what effect, if any, the proposals might have on the operations of the underlying properties.
 
 
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (the “FERC”) regulates interstate gas transportation rates and service conditions, which affect the marketing of gas we produce, as well as the revenues we receive for sales of such production.  The price and terms of access to pipeline transportation are subject to extensive federal and state regulation.  The FERC is continually proposing and implementing new rules and regulations affecting interstate transportation.  These initiatives also may affect the intrastate transportation of gas under certain circumstances.  The stated purpose of many of these regulatory changes is to promote competition among the various sectors of the gas industry. We do not believe that we will be affected by any such FERC action in a manner materially different from other gas producers in our areas of operation.
 
The price we receive from the sale of oil and gas is affected by the cost of transporting those products to market.  Interstate transportation rates for oil, gas and other products are regulated by the FERC.  The FERC has established an indexing system for such transportation, which allows such pipelines to take an annual inflation-based rate increase.  We are not able to predict with any certainty what effect, if any, these regulations will have on us, but, other factors being equal, the regulations may, over time, tend to increase transportation costs, which may have the effect of reducing wellhead prices for oil and gas.
 
Market manipulation and market transparency regulations.  Under the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (the “EP Act 2005”), the FERC possesses regulatory oversight over gas markets, including the purchase, sale and transportation of gas by “any entity” in order to enforce the anti-market manipulation provisions in the EP Act 2005. The Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”) has similar regulatory oversight of oil markets in order to prevent market manipulation.  The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the “CFTC”) also holds authority to monitor certain segments of the physical and futures energy commodities market pursuant to the Commodity Exchange Act.  With regard to our physical purchases and sales of crude oil and gas, our gathering of these energy commodities, and any related hedging transactions that we undertake, we are required to observe these anti-market manipulation laws and related regulations enforced by the FERC, the FTC and/or the CFTC.  These agencies hold substantial enforcement authority, including the ability to assess civil penalties of up to $1 million per day per violation, to order disgorgement of profits and to recommend criminal penalties.  Should we violate the anti-market manipulation laws and regulations, we could also be subject to related third-party damage claims by, among others, sellers, royalty owners and taxing authorities.
 
Gathering regulations.  Section 1(b) of the Natural Gas Act (the “NGA”) exempts gas gathering facilities from the jurisdiction of the FERC under the NGA.  We own certain gas pipelines that we believe meet the traditional tests that the FERC has used to establish a pipeline’s status as a gatherer not subject to the FERC jurisdiction.  The distinction between the FERC-regulated transmission facilities and federally unregulated gathering facilities is, however, the subject of substantial, ongoing litigation, so the classification and regulation of our gathering lines may be subject to change based on future determinations by the FERC, the courts or Congress.
 
State regulation of gathering facilities generally includes various safety, environmental and, in some circumstances, nondiscriminatory take requirements and in some instances complaint-based rate regulation.  Our gathering operations are also subject to state ratable take and common purchaser statutes, designed to prohibit discrimination in favor of one producer over another or one source of supply over another.  The regulations under these statutes can have the effect of imposing some restrictions on our ability as an owner of gathering facilities to decide with whom we contract to gather gas.  In addition, our gas gathering operations could be adversely affected should they be subject to more stringent application of state or federal regulation of rates and services, though we do not believe that we would be affected by any such action in a manner materially differently than other companies in our areas of operation.

Environmental Matters
 
Our operations pertaining to oil and gas exploration, production and related activities are subject to numerous and constantly changing federal, state and local laws governing the emission and discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise relating to environmental protection.  These laws and regulations may require the acquisition of certain permits prior to commencing certain activities or in connection with our operations; restrict or prohibit the types, quantities and concentration of substances that we can release into the environment; restrict or prohibit activities that could impact wetlands, endangered or threatened species or other protected areas or natural resources; require some degree of remedial action to mitigate pollution from former operations, such as pit cleanups and plugging abandoned wells; and impose substantial liabilities for pollution resulting from our operations.  Such laws and regulations may substantially increase the cost of our operations and may prevent or delay the commencement or continuation of a given project and thus generally could have an adverse effect upon our capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position.  Violation of these laws and regulations could result in significant fines or penalties.  We have not experienced accidental spills, leaks and other discharges of contaminants at some of our properties, but may do so in the future, as have other similarly situated oil and gas companies, and some of the properties that we have acquired, operated or sold, or in which we may hold an interest but not operational control, may have past or ongoing contamination for which we may be held responsible.  We may acquire operations that are located in environmentally sensitive environments, such as coastal waters, wetlands and other protected areas.  In addition, we may acquire properties that are located in areas particularly susceptible to hurricanes and other destructive storms, which may damage facilities and cause the release of pollutants. Our environmental insurance coverage may not fully insure all of these risks. The costs of remedying such conditions may be significant, which could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and operations.
 
 
We believe that we are in substantial compliance with current applicable environmental laws and regulations, and the cost of compliance with such laws and regulations has not been material and is not expected to be material during 2014.  We do not believe that we will be required to incur material capital expenditures to comply with existing environmental requirements.  Nevertheless, changes in existing environmental laws and regulations or in the interpretations thereof could have a significant impact on our operations, as well as the oil and gas industry in general.  For instance, any changes in environmental laws and regulations that result in more stringent and costly waste handling, storage, transport, disposal or clean-up requirements could have an adverse impact on our operations.

Hazardous substances.  The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (“CERCLA”), also known as the “Superfund” law, imposes liability, without regard to fault or the legality of the original conduct, on certain classes of persons that are considered to have contributed to the release of a “hazardous substance” into the environment.  Despite the “petroleum exclusion” of Section 101(14) of CERCLA, which currently encompasses crude oil and natural gas, we may nonetheless handle hazardous substances within the meaning of CERCLA, or similar state statutes, in the course of our ordinary operations and, as a result, may be jointly and severally liable under CERCLA for all or part of the costs required to clean up sites at which these hazardous substances have been released into the environment. These persons include the owner or operator of the disposal site or the site where the release occurred and companies that disposed or arranged for the disposal of the hazardous substances at the site where the release occurred.  Under CERCLA, such persons may be subject to joint and several liability for the costs of cleaning up the hazardous substances that have been released into the environment and for damages to natural resources, and it is not uncommon for neighboring landowners and other third parties to file claims for personal injury and property damage allegedly caused by the hazardous substances released into the environment.  We are able to control directly the operation of only those wells with respect to which we act as operator.  Notwithstanding our lack of direct control over wells operated by others, the failure of an operator other than us to comply with applicable environmental regulations may, in certain circumstances, be attributed to us.  We are not aware of any liabilities for which we may be held responsible that would materially and adversely affect us.
 
Waste handling.  The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (“RCRA”) and analogous state laws impose detailed requirements for the handling, storage, treatment and disposal of hazardous and solid wastes.  RCRA specifically excludes drilling fluids, produced waters and other wastes associated with the exploration, development or production of crude oil, natural gas or geothermal energy from regulation as hazardous wastes.  However, these wastes may be regulated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”) or state agencies as solid wastes.  Moreover, many ordinary industrial wastes, such as paint wastes, waste solvents, laboratory wastes and waste compressor oils may be regulated as hazardous wastes if such wastes have hazardous characteristics.  Although the costs of managing hazardous waste may be significant, we do not believe that our costs in this regard are materially more burdensome than those for similarly situated companies.
 
Air emissions.  The Clean Air Act and comparable state laws and regulations impose restrictions on emissions of air pollutants from various industrial sources, including compressor stations and natural gas processing facilities, and also impose various monitoring and reporting requirements.  Such laws and regulations may require that we obtain pre-approval for the construction or modification of certain projects or facilities expected to produce air emissions or result in the increase of existing air emissions, obtain and strictly comply with air permits containing various emissions and operational limits or utilize specific emission control technologies to limit emissions.  For example, in August 2012, the EPA adopted new rules that impose additional air emission control standards on well completion activities and certain production equipment, such as glycol dehydrators and storage vessels. Some of these new rules, such as a requirement for flaring of gas not sent to a gathering line, became effective in October 2012, but the most significant new rule, requiring the use of “green completions” emission control technology to reduce air emissions during well completions, does not become effective until January 1, 2015. Our failure to comply with these requirements could subject us to monetary penalties, injunctions, conditions or restrictions on operations and potentially criminal enforcement actions.  Capital expenditures for air pollution equipment may be required in connection with maintaining or obtaining operating permits and approvals relating to air emissions at facilities owned or operated by us. However, we believe our operations will not be materially adversely affected by any such requirements, and the requirements are not expected to be any more burdensome to us than to other similarly situated companies involved in oil and natural gas exploration and production activities.
 
 
Water discharges.  The Federal Water Pollution Control Act (the “Clean Water Act”) and analogous state laws and regulations impose restrictions and strict controls with respect to the discharge of pollutants, including spills and leaks of oil and other substances, into waters of the United States.  The discharge of pollutants into regulated waters is prohibited, except in accordance with the terms of a permit issued by the EPA or an analogous state agency.  Pursuant to these laws and regulations, we may be required to obtain and maintain approvals or permits for the discharge of wastewater or storm water from our operations and may be required to develop and implement spill prevention, control and countermeasure plans, also referred to as “SPCC plans,” in connection with on-site storage of significant quantities of oil, including refined petroleum products. We maintain all required discharge permits necessary to conduct our operations, and we believe we are in substantial compliance with their terms. Federal and state regulatory agencies can impose administrative, civil and criminal penalties for non-compliance with discharge permits or other requirements of the Clean Water Act and analogous state laws and regulations.  In addition, the United States Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (“OPA”) and similar legislation enacted in Texas, Louisiana and other coastal states impose oil spill prevention and control requirements and significantly expand liability for damages resulting from oil spills.  OPA imposes strict and, with limited exceptions, joint and several liabilities upon each responsible party for oil spill response and removal costs and a variety of public and private damages.
 
Global warming and climate change.  In December 2009, the EPA determined that emissions of carbon dioxide, methane and other “greenhouse gases” present an endangerment to public health and the environment because emissions of such gases are, according to the EPA, contributing to warming of the Earth’s atmosphere and other climatic changes.  Based on these findings, the EPA adopted rules regulating greenhouse gas emissions under the Clean Air Act, including emissions of greenhouse gases from certain large stationary sources, effective January 2, 2011.  The EPA’s rules relating to emissions of greenhouse gases from large stationary sources of emissions are currently subject to a number of legal challenges, but the federal courts have thus far declined to issue any injunctions to prevent the EPA from implementing, or requiring state environmental agencies to implement, the rules.  The EPA has also adopted rules requiring the reporting of greenhouse gas emissions from specified large greenhouse gas emission sources in the United States, including certain onshore oil and natural gas production facilities, on an annual basis. We believe that we are in compliance with all greenhouse gas emissions reporting requirements applicable to our operations.

In addition, from time to time Congress has considered adopting legislation to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases and almost one-half of the states have already taken legal measures to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases, primarily through the planned development of greenhouse gas emission inventories and/or regional greenhouse gas cap and trade programs.  Most of these cap and trade programs work by requiring major sources of emissions, such as electric power plants, or major producers of fuels, such as refineries and gas processing plants, to acquire and surrender emission allowances. The number of allowances available for purchase is reduced each year in an effort to achieve the overall greenhouse gas emission reduction goal.
 
The adoption of legislation or regulatory programs to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases could require us to incur increased operating costs, such as costs to purchase and operate emission control systems, to acquire emission allowances or comply with new regulatory or reporting requirements. Any such legislation or regulatory programs could also increase the cost of consuming, and thereby reduce demand for, the oil and natural gas we produce.  Consequently, legislation and regulatory programs to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Finally, it should be noted that some scientists have concluded that increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases in the Earth’s atmosphere may produce climate changes that have significant physical effects, such as increased frequency and severity of storms, droughts, floods and other climatic events. If any such effects were to occur, they could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
 
Hydraulic fracturing.  Hydraulic fracturing is an important and common practice that is used to stimulate production of natural gas and/or oil from dense subsurface rock formations.  The hydraulic fracturing process involves the injection of water, sand and chemicals under pressure into the formation to fracture the surrounding rock and stimulate production.  We commonly use hydraulic fracturing as part of our operations.  Hydraulic fracturing typically is regulated by state oil and natural gas commissions, but the EPA has asserted federal regulatory authority pursuant to the Safe Drinking Water Act over certain hydraulic fracturing activities involving the use of diesel.  At the state level, several states have adopted or are considering legal requirements that could impose more stringent permitting, chemical disclosure and well construction requirements on hydraulic fracturing activities. We believe that we follow applicable standard industry practices and legal requirements for groundwater protection in our hydraulic fracturing activities. Nonetheless, if new or more stringent federal, state or local legal restrictions relating to the hydraulic fracturing process are adopted in areas where we operate, we could incur potentially significant added costs to comply with such requirements, experience delays or curtailment in the pursuit of exploration, development or production activities, and perhaps even be precluded from drilling wells.
 
 
In addition, certain governmental reviews are either underway or being proposed that focus on environmental aspects of hydraulic fracturing practices.  The EPA has commenced a study of the potential environmental effects of hydraulic fracturing on water resources. The EPA’s study includes 18 separate research projects addressing topics such as water acquisitions, chemical mixing, well injection, flowback and produced water, and wastewater treatment and waste disposal. The EPA has indicated that it expects to issue its study report in late 2014.  Moreover, the EPA is developing effluent limitations for the treatment and discharge of wastewater resulting from hydraulic fracturing activities and plans to propose these standards by late 2014.  Other governmental agencies, including the U.S. Department of Energy and the U.S. Department of the Interior, are evaluating various other aspects of hydraulic fracturing.  These ongoing or proposed studies, depending on their degree of pursuit and any meaningful results obtained, could spur initiatives to further regulate hydraulic fracturing under the Safe Drinking Water Act or other regulatory mechanisms.
 
To our knowledge, there have been no citations, suits or contamination of potable drinking water arising from our hydraulic fracturing operations. We do not have insurance policies in effect that are intended to provide coverage for losses solely related to hydraulic fracturing operations; however, we believe our general liability and excess liability insurance policies would cover third-party claims related to hydraulic fracturing operations and associated legal expenses in accordance with, and subject to, the terms of such policies.
 
Endangered species.  The Endangered Species Act and analogous state laws regulate activities that could have an adverse effect on threatened or endangered species.  Some of our well drilling operations are conducted in areas where protected species are known to exist.  In these areas, we may be obligated to develop and implement plans to avoid potential adverse impacts to protected species, and we may be prohibited from conducting drilling operations in certain locations or during certain seasons, such as breeding and nesting seasons, when our operations could have an adverse effect on protected species.  It is also possible that a federal or state agency could order a complete halt to drilling activities in certain locations if it is determined that such activities may have a serious adverse effect on a protected species.  The presence of a protected species in areas where we perform drilling activities could impair our ability to timely complete well drilling and development and could adversely affect our future production from those areas.
 
Pipeline safety.  Some of our pipelines are subject to regulation by the U.S. Department of Transportation (the “DOT”) under the Pipeline Safety Improvement Act of 2002, which was reauthorized and amended by the Pipeline Inspection, Protection, Enforcement and Safety Act of 2006, and further amended by the Pipeline Safety, Regulation Certainty, and Job Creation Act of 2011 (the “2011 Pipeline Safety Act amendments”). The DOT, through the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration, has established a series of rules that require pipeline operators to develop and implement integrity management programs for gas, oil and condensate transmission pipelines that, in the event of a failure, could affect “high consequence areas.” “High consequence areas” are currently defined to include areas with specified population densities, buildings containing populations with limited mobility, areas where people may gather along the route of a pipeline (such as athletic fields or campgrounds), environmentally sensitive areas and commercially navigable waterways. Under the DOT’s regulations, integrity management programs are required to include baseline assessments to identify potential threats to each pipeline segment, implementation of mitigation measures to reduce the risk of pipeline failure, periodic reassessments, reporting and recordkeeping.  These regulatory requirements may be expanded in the future upon completion of studies required by the 2011 Pipeline Safety Act amendments.
 
OSHA and other laws and regulations.  We are subject to the requirements of the Occupational Safety and Health Act (“OSHA”) and comparable state statutes. These laws and the implementing regulations strictly govern the protection of the health and safety of employees. The OSHA hazard communication standard, the EPA community right-to-know regulations under Title III of CERCLA and similar state statutes require that we organize and/or disclose information about hazardous materials used or produced in our operations. We believe that we are in substantial compliance with these applicable requirements and with other OSHA and comparable requirements.
 
Claims are sometimes made or threatened against companies engaged in oil and gas exploration, production and related activities by owners of surface estates, adjoining properties or others alleging damages resulting from environmental contamination and other incidents of operations. We have been named as a defendant in a number of such lawsuits. While some jurisdictions in which we operate limit damages in such cases to the value of land that has been impaired, courts in other jurisdictions have allowed damage claims in excess of land value, including claims for the cost of remediation of contaminated properties. However, we do not believe that resolution of these claims will have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and operations.
 

Competition

We operate in a highly competitive environment. The principal resources necessary for the exploration and production of crude oil and natural gas are leasehold prospects where crude oil and natural gas reserves may be discovered, drilling rigs and related equipment to explore for such reserves and knowledgeable personnel to conduct operations. We must compete for such resources with both major oil and gas companies and independent operators. Many of these competitors have financial and other resources substantially greater than ours. Although we believe our current operating and financial resources are adequate to preclude any significant disruption of our operations in the immediate future, we cannot assure you that such resources will be available to us indefinitely.

Employees

As of March 1, 2014, we had seven full-time employees. None of our employees are represented by a labor union, and we consider our employee relations to be excellent. We seek to use contract workers and anticipate maintaining a small full-time employee base.  We have a staff services agreement with CoAdvantage (formerly Odyssey One Source, Inc.) on a month-to-month basis whereby we jointly employ personnel and share employment responsibilities for the staff.

ITEM 1A.  RISK FACTORS.

You should carefully consider the following risk factors and all other information contained herein as well as the information included in this Annual Report in evaluating our business and prospects. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties, other than those we describe below, that are not presently known to us or that we currently believe are immaterial, may also impair our business operations. If any of the following risks occur, our business and consolidated financial results could be harmed. You should refer to the other information contained in this Annual Report, including our consolidated financial statements and the related notes.

Risks Related to Our Business

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

We incurred net losses of $3,704,533 and $6,523,292 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. We cannot assure you that we can achieve or sustain profitability on a quarterly or annual basis in the future. Our operations are subject to the risks and competition inherent in the establishment of a business enterprise. There can be no assurance that future operations will be profitable. Revenues and profits, if any, will depend upon various factors, including whether we will be able to continue expansion of our revenue. We may not achieve our business objectives and the failure to achieve such goals would have an adverse impact on us. 

Our lack of diversification will increase the risk of an investment in PERC, and our consolidated financial condition and results of operations may deteriorate if we fail to diversify.
 
Our business focus is on the oil and gas industry in a limited number of properties, initially in Texas.  Larger companies have the ability to manage their risk by geographic diversification.  However, we lack diversification, in terms of both the nature and geographic scope of our business.  As a result of this concentration, we may be disproportionately exposed to the impact of regional supply and demand factors, delays or interruptions of production from wells in this area caused by governmental regulation, processing or transportation capacity constraints, changes in field-wide rules, market limitations, or interruption of the processing or transportation of oil or gas.  If we cannot diversify our operations, our financial condition and results of operations could deteriorate.
 
Oil and natural gas drilling is a speculative activity and involves numerous risks and substantial and uncertain costs that could adversely affect us.
 
An investment in us should be considered speculative due to the nature of our involvement in the exploration for, and the acquisition, development and production of, oil and natural gas. Oil and natural gas operations involve many risks, which even a combination of experience, knowledge and careful evaluation may not be able to overcome. There is no assurance that commercial quantities of oil or natural gas will be discovered or acquired by us or, even if discovered or acquired, that any such reserves would be economically recoverable. Further, any changes in the regulations to which our business is subject, including those related to the hydraulic fracturing production method, could also have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects.
 

We have substantial capital requirements that, if not met, may hinder our operations.
 
We anticipate that we will make substantial capital expenditures for the acquisition, exploration, development and production of oil and natural gas reserves in the future and for future drilling programs. If we have insufficient revenues, we may have a limited ability to expend the capital necessary to undertake or complete future drilling programs. We cannot assure you that debt or equity financing, or cash generated by operations, will be available or sufficient to meet these requirements or for other corporate purposes, or if
debt or equity financing is available, that it will be on terms acceptable to us. Moreover, future activities may require us to alter our capitalization significantly. Our inability to access sufficient capital for our operations could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects.

Our proved undeveloped locations are scheduled to be drilled over several years, subjecting us to uncertainties that could materially alter the occurrence or timing of our drilling activities.

We have assigned proved undeveloped reserves to certain of our drilling locations as an estimation of our future multi-year development activities on our existing acreage.  These identified locations represent a significant part of our growth strategy. At December 31, 2013, our estimated proved undeveloped reserves were approximately 91% of total estimated proved reserves.  Our ability to drill and develop these locations depends on a number of uncertainties, including (1) our ability to timely drill wells on lands subject to complex development terms and circumstances; (2) the availability of capital, equipment, services and personnel; (3) seasonal conditions; (4) regulatory and third-party approvals; (5) oil and gas prices; and (6) drilling and recompletion costs and results. Because of these uncertainties, we may defer drilling on, or never drill, some or all of these potential locations.  If we defer drilling more than five years from the date proved undeveloped reserves were first assigned to a drilling location, we may be required under SEC guidelines to downgrade the category of the applicable reserves from proved undeveloped to probable.  Any reclassification of reserves from proved undeveloped to probable could reduce our ability to borrow money and could reduce the value of our debt and equity securities.
 
Price declines may result in impairments of our asset carrying values.
 
Commodity prices have a significant impact on the present value of our proved reserves.  Accounting rules require us to impair, as a non-cash charge to earnings, the carrying value of our oil and gas properties in certain situations.  We are required to perform impairment tests on our assets periodically and whenever events or changes in circumstances warrant a review of our assets.  To the extent such tests indicate a reduction of the estimated useful life or estimated future cash flows of our assets, the carrying value may not be recoverable, and an impairment may be required.  Any impairment charges we record in the future could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations in the period incurred.

We may have to limit our exploration and development activity, which may result in a loss of investment.
 
We have a relatively small asset base and limited access to additional capital. Due to our brief operating history and historical operating losses, our operations to date have not been a source of liquidity. We expect significant cash requirements during fiscal year 2014 for our well drilling and completion programs, potential land acquisitions and overhead and working capital purposes. We cannot assure you that we will have, or be able to obtain, sufficient capital to complete our planned exploration and development programs. If additional financing is not available, or is not available on acceptable terms, we will have to curtail our operations, and investors may lose some or all of their investment.

Strategic relationships upon which we may rely are subject to change, which may diminish our ability to conduct our operations.
 
Our ability to successfully acquire additional properties, to discover reserves, to participate in drilling opportunities and to identify and enter into commercial arrangements with customers will depend on developing and maintaining close working relationships with industry participants and on our ability to select and evaluate suitable properties and to consummate transactions in a highly competitive environment. These realities are subject to change and may impair our ability to grow.
 
To develop our business, we will endeavor to use the business relationships of our management to enter into strategic relationships, which may take the form of joint ventures with other private parties and contractual arrangements with other oil and gas companies, including those that supply equipment and other resources that we will use in our business.  We may not be able to establish these strategic relationships, or if established, we may not be able to maintain them.  In addition, the dynamics of our relationships with strategic partners may require us to incur expenses or undertake activities we would not otherwise be inclined to in order to fulfill our obligations to these partners or maintain our relationships.  If our strategic relationships are not established or maintained, our business prospects may be limited, which could diminish our ability to conduct our operations.
 

Competition in obtaining rights to explore and develop oil and gas reserves and to market our production may impair our business.
 
The oil and gas industry is highly competitive.  Other oil and gas companies may seek to acquire oil and gas leases and other properties and services we will need to operate our business in the areas in which we expect to operate.  Additionally, other companies engaged in our line of business may compete with us from time to time in obtaining capital from investors.  Competitors include larger companies, which, in particular, may have access to greater resources, may be more successful in the recruitment and retention of qualified employees and may conduct their own refining and petroleum marketing operations, which may give them a competitive advantage.  In addition, actual or potential competitors may be strengthened through the acquisition of additional assets and interests.  If we are unable to compete effectively or adequately respond to competitive pressures, this inability may materially adversely affect our consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

If we are unable to obtain additional funding our business operations will be harmed and if we do obtain additional financing our then existing shareholders may suffer substantial dilution.
 
While we believe that our currently available funds can sustain our current level of operations for twelve months, we will require additional capital to fund our planned growth, including drilling and lease acquisition programs. We may be unable to obtain the additional capital required.  Furthermore, inability to maintain capital may damage our reputation and credibility with industry participants.  Our inability to raise additional funds when required may have a negative impact on our consolidated results of operations and financial condition.
 
Future acquisitions, exploration, development, production, and leasing activities, as well as our administrative requirements (such as salaries, insurance expenses and general overhead expenses, as well as legal compliance costs and accounting expenses) will require a substantial amount of additional capital and cash flow.
 
We plan to pursue sources of additional capital through various financing transactions or arrangements, including joint venturing of projects, debt financing, equity financing or other means.  We may not be successful in locating suitable financing transactions in the time period required or at all, and we may not obtain the capital we require by other means.   
 
Any additional capital raised through the sale of equity may dilute your ownership percentage.  This could also result in a decrease in the fair market value of our equity securities because our assets would be owned by a larger pool of outstanding equity.  The terms of securities we issue in future capital transactions may be more favorable to our new investors, and may include preferences, superior voting rights and the issuance of warrants or other derivative securities, and issuances of incentive awards under equity employee incentive plans, which may have a further dilutive effect.
 
Our ability to obtain the required financing may be impaired by such factors as the capital markets (both generally and in the oil and gas industry in particular), our status as a new enterprise without a significant demonstrated operating history, the location of our oil and natural gas properties and prices of oil and natural gas on the commodities markets (which will impact the amount of asset-based financing available to us) and/or the loss of key management.  Further, if oil and/or natural gas prices on the commodities markets decrease, then our revenues will likely decrease, and such decreased revenues may increase our capital requirements.  If the amount of capital we are able to raise from financing activities, together with our revenues from operations, is not sufficient to satisfy our capital needs (even to the extent that we reduce our operations), we may be required to cease our operations.
 
We may incur substantial costs in pursuing future capital financing, including investment banking fees, legal fees, accounting fees, securities law compliance fees, printing and distribution expenses and other costs.  We may also be required to recognize non-cash expenses in connection with certain securities we may issue, such as convertible notes and warrants, which may adversely impact our consolidated financial results.

We may not be able to effectively manage our growth, which may harm our profitability.

Our strategy envisions expanding our business.  If we fail to effectively manage our growth, our consolidated financial results could be adversely affected.  Growth may place a strain on our management systems and resources.  We must continue to refine and expand our business development capabilities, our systems and processes and our access to financing sources.  As we grow, we must continue to hire, train, supervise and manage new employees.  We cannot assure you that we will be able to:
 
·  
meet our capital needs;
·  
expand our systems effectively or efficiently or in a timely manner;
·  
allocate our human resources optimally;
·  
identify and hire qualified employees or retain valued employees; or
·  
incorporate effectively the components of any business that we may acquire in our effort to achieve growth.
 
If we are unable to manage our growth, our operations and our consolidated financial results could be adversely affected by inefficiency, which could diminish our profitability.
 

If we are unable to retain the services of Messrs. Neufeld, Waldron, or Sudderth, or if we are unable to successfully recruit qualified managerial and field personnel having experience in oil and gas exploration, we may not be able to continue our operations.

Our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of Mr. Michael Neufeld, our President and Chairman, Mr. Jonathan Waldron, our Chief Financial Officer, and Mr. William Sudderth, our Executive Vice President.  The loss of the services of Messrs. Neufeld, Waldron, or Sudderth could have a material adverse effect on our growth, revenues, and prospective business. We do not have key-man insurance on the lives of Messrs. Neufeld, Waldron, or Sudderth. In addition, in order to successfully implement and manage our business plan, we will be dependent upon, among other things, successfully recruiting qualified managerial and field personnel having experience in the oil and gas exploration business. Competition for qualified individuals is intense. There can be no assurance that we will be able to find, attract and retain existing employees or that we will be able to find, attract and retain qualified personnel on acceptable terms.
 
RISKS RELATED TO OUR INDUSTRY
 
Our exploration for oil and gas is risky and may not be commercially successful, and the 3D seismic data and other advanced technologies we use cannot eliminate exploration risk, which could impair our ability to generate revenues from our operations.
 
Our future success will depend on the success of our exploratory drilling program.  Oil and gas exploration involves a high degree of risk.  These risks are more acute in the early stages of exploration.  Our expenditures on exploration may not result in new discoveries of oil or natural gas in commercially viable quantities.  It is difficult to project the costs of implementing an exploratory drilling program due to the inherent uncertainties of drilling in unknown formations, the costs associated with encountering various drilling conditions, such as over-pressured zones and tools lost in the hole, and changes in drilling plans and locations as a result of prior exploratory wells or additional seismic data and interpretations thereof.
 
Even when used and properly interpreted, 3D seismic data and visualization techniques only assist geoscientists in identifying subsurface structures and hydrocarbon indicators.  They do not allow the interpreter to know conclusively if hydrocarbons are present or economically producible.  In addition, the use of 3D seismic data becomes less reliable when used at increasing depths.  We could incur losses as a result of expenditures on unsuccessful wells.  If exploration costs exceed our estimates, or if our exploration efforts do not produce results which meet our expectations, our exploration efforts may not be commercially successful, which could adversely impact our ability to generate revenues from operations.
 
We may not be able to develop oil and gas reserves on an economically viable basis and our reserves and production may decline as a result.
 
To the extent that we succeed in discovering oil and/or natural gas reserves, we cannot assure that these reserves will be capable of production levels we project or in sufficient quantities to be commercially viable.  On a long-term basis, our viability depends on our ability to find or acquire, develop and commercially produce additional oil and natural gas reserves.  Without the addition of reserves through acquisition, exploration or development activities, our reserves and production will decline over time as reserves are produced.  Our future reserves will depend not only on our ability to develop then-existing properties, but also on our ability to identify and acquire additional suitable producing properties or prospects, to find markets for the oil and natural gas we develop and to effectively distribute our production into our markets. 
 
Future oil and gas exploration may involve unprofitable efforts, not only from dry wells, but from wells that are productive but do not produce sufficient net revenues to return a profit after drilling, operating and other costs.  Completion of a well does not assure a profit on the investment or recovery of drilling, completion and operating costs.  In addition, drilling hazards or environmental damage could greatly increase the cost of operations, and various field operating conditions may adversely affect the production from successful wells.  These conditions include delays in obtaining governmental approvals or consents, shut-downs of connected wells resulting from extreme weather conditions, problems in storage and distribution and adverse geological and mechanical conditions.  While we will endeavor to effectively manage these conditions, we cannot be assured of doing so optimally, and we will not be able to eliminate them completely in any case.  Therefore, these conditions could diminish our revenue and cash flow levels and result in the impairment of our oil and natural gas interests.

Estimates of oil and natural gas reserves that we make may be inaccurate and our actual revenues may be lower than our financial projections.
 
We will make estimates of oil and natural gas reserves, upon which we will base our financial projections.  We will make these reserve estimates using various assumptions, including assumptions as to oil and natural gas prices, drilling and operating expenses, capital expenditures, taxes and availability of funds.  Some of these assumptions are inherently subjective, and the accuracy of our reserve estimates relies in part on the ability of our management team, engineers and other advisors to make accurate assumptions.  
 

In addition, economic factors beyond our control, such as interest rates, will also impact the value of our reserves.  The process of estimating oil and natural gas reserves is complex, and will require us to use significant decisions and assumptions in the evaluation of available geological, geophysical, engineering and economic data for each property.  As a result, our reserve estimates will be inherently imprecise.  Actual future production, oil and natural gas prices, revenues, taxes, development expenditures, operating expenses and quantities of recoverable oil and natural gas reserves may vary substantially from those we estimate.  If actual production results vary substantially from our reserve estimates, this could materially reduce our revenues and result in the impairment of our oil and natural gas interests.
 
We may not be able to replace production with new reserves.
 
In general, the volume of production from an oil and gas property declines as reserves related to that property are depleted. The decline rates depend upon reservoir characteristics. Exploring for, developing or acquiring reserves is capital intensive and uncertain.  We may not be able to economically find, develop or acquire additional reserves.  Also, we may not be able to make the necessary capital investments if our cash flows from operations decline or external sources of capital become limited or unavailable.  We cannot give assurance that our future exploration, development and acquisition activities will result in additional proved reserves or that we will be able to drill productive wells at acceptable costs.

Drilling new wells could result in new liabilities, which could endanger our interests in our properties and assets.
 
There are risks associated with the drilling of oil and natural gas wells, including encountering unexpected formations or pressures, premature declines of reservoirs, blow-outs, craterings, sour gas releases, fires and spills, among others.  The occurrence of any of these events could significantly reduce our revenues or cause substantial losses, impairing our future consolidated operating results.  We may become subject to liability for pollution, blow-outs or other hazards.  We intend to obtain insurance with respect to these hazards; however, such insurance has limitations on liability that may not be sufficient to cover the full extent of such liabilities.  The payment of such liabilities could reduce the funds available to us or could, in an extreme case, result in a total loss of our properties and assets.  Moreover, we may not be able to maintain adequate insurance in the future at rates that are considered reasonable.  Oil and natural gas production operations are also subject to all the risks typically associated with such operations, including premature decline of reservoirs and the invasion of water into producing formations.
 
The lack of availability or high cost of drilling rigs, fracture stimulation crews, equipment, supplies, insurance, personnel and oil field services could adversely affect our ability to execute our exploration and development plans on a timely basis and within our budget.
 
Our industry is cyclical and, from time to time, there is a shortage of drilling rigs, fracture stimulation crews, equipment, supplies, key infrastructure, insurance or qualified personnel. During these periods, the costs and delivery times of rigs, equipment and supplies are substantially greater. In addition, the demand for, and wage rates of, qualified crews rise as the number of active rigs and completion fleets in service increases. If increasing levels of exploration and production result in response to strong prices of oil and natural gas, the demand for oilfield services will likely rise, and the costs of these services will likely increase, while the quality of these services may suffer. If the lack of availability or high cost of drilling rigs, equipment, supplies, insurance or qualified personnel were particularly severe in Texas, we could be materially and adversely affected because our operations and properties are concentrated in this state.
 
Decommissioning costs are unknown and may be substantial.  Unplanned costs could divert resources from other projects.
 
We may become responsible for costs associated with abandoning and reclaiming wells, facilities and pipelines which we use for production of oil and natural gas reserves.  Abandonment and reclamation of these facilities and the costs associated therewith is often referred to as “decommissioning.”  We have not yet determined whether we will establish a cash reserve account for these potential costs in respect of any of our properties or facilities, or if we will satisfy such costs of decommissioning from the proceeds of production in accordance with the practice generally employed in onshore and offshore oilfield operations.  If decommissioning is required before economic depletion of our properties or if our estimates of the costs of decommissioning exceed the value of the reserves remaining at any particular time to cover such decommissioning costs, we may have to draw on funds from other sources to satisfy such costs.  The use of other funds to satisfy such decommissioning costs could impair our ability to focus capital investment in other areas of our business.
 
Our inability to obtain necessary facilities could hamper our operations.
 
Oil and gas exploration and development activities are dependent on the availability of drilling and related equipment, transportation, power and technical support in the particular areas where these activities will be conducted, and our access to these facilities may be limited.  To the extent that we conduct our activities in remote areas, the facilities required may not be proximate to our operations, which will increase our expenses.  Demand for scarce equipment and other facilities or access restrictions may affect the availability of such equipment to us and may delay exploration and development activities.  The quality and reliability of necessary facilities may also be unpredictable and we may be required to make efforts to standardize our facilities, which may entail unanticipated costs and delays.  Shortages and/or the unavailability of necessary equipment or other facilities will impair our activities, either by delaying our activities, increasing our costs or otherwise.
 

Prices and markets for oil and natural gas are unpredictable and tend to fluctuate significantly, which could reduce profitability, growth and the value of our business.
 
Oil and natural gas are commodities whose prices are determined based on world demand, supply and other factors, all of which are beyond our control.  World prices for oil and natural gas have fluctuated widely in recent years.  The average price per barrel was $97.98 in 2013 and $96.11 in 2012, and the average wellhead price per thousand cubic feet of natural gas was $3.73  in 2013 and $2.66 in 2012 (source: U.S. Energy Information Administration).  We expect that prices will continue to fluctuate in the future.  Price fluctuations will have a significant impact upon our revenue, the return from our reserves and on our financial condition generally.  Price fluctuations for oil and natural gas commodities may also impact the investment market for companies engaged in the oil and gas industry.  Decreases in the prices of oil and natural gas may have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, the future results of our operations and the quantities of reserves recoverable on an economic basis.
 
Increases in our operating expenses will impact our operating results and financial condition.
 
Exploration, development, production, marketing (including distribution costs) and regulatory compliance costs (including taxes) will substantially impact the net revenues and profits we derive from the oil and natural gas that we produce.  These costs are subject to fluctuations and variation in the different locales in which we operate, and we may not be able to predict or control these costs.  If these costs exceed our expectations, this may adversely affect our consolidated results of operations.  In addition, we may not be able to earn net revenue at our predicted levels, which may impact our ability to satisfy our obligations.

Penalties we may incur could impair our business.

Failure to comply with government regulations could subject us to civil and criminal penalties, could require us to forfeit property rights, and may affect the value of our assets.  We may also be required to take corrective actions, such as installing additional equipment or taking other actions, each of which could require us to make substantial capital expenditures.  We could also be required to indemnify our employees in connection with any expenses or liabilities that they may incur individually in connection with regulatory action against them.  As a result, our future business prospects could deteriorate due to regulatory constraints, and our profitability could be impaired by our obligation to provide such indemnification to our employees.

Compliance with laws and regulations governing our activities could be costly and could negatively impact production.
 
Our oil and gas exploration, production and related operations are subject to extensive rules and regulations promulgated by federal, state and local agencies. Failure to comply with such rules and regulations can result in substantial penalties. The regulatory burden on the oil and gas industry increases our cost of doing business and affects our profitability. Because such rules and regulations are frequently amended or reinterpreted, we are unable to predict the future cost or impact of complying with such laws.
 
The state in which we operate requires permits for drilling operations, drilling bonds and reports concerning operations and impose other requirements relating to the exploration and production of oil and gas. The state also have statutes or regulations addressing conservation matters, including provisions for the unitization or pooling of oil and gas properties, the establishment of maximum rates of production from oil and gas wells and the spacing, plugging and abandonment of such wells. The statutes and regulations of certain states may also limit the rate at which oil and gas can be produced from our properties.
 
The FERC regulates interstate gas transportation rates and service conditions, which affect the marketing of gas we produce, as well as the revenues we receive for sales of such production. Since the mid-1980s, the FERC has issued various orders that have significantly altered the marketing and transportation of gas. These orders resulted in a fundamental restructuring of interstate pipeline sales and transportation services, including the unbundling by interstate pipelines of the sales, transportation, storage and other components of the city-gate sales services such pipelines previously performed. These FERC actions were designed to increase competition within all phases of the gas industry. The interstate regulatory framework may enhance our ability to market and transport our gas, although it may also subject us to greater competition and to the more restrictive pipeline imbalance tolerances and greater associated penalties for violation of such tolerances.
 
Our sales of oil re not presently regulated and are made at market prices.  The price we receive from the sale of oil is affected by the cost of transporting it to market. The FERC has implemented regulations establishing an indexing system for transportation rates for oil pipelines, which, generally, would index such rate to inflation, subject to certain conditions and limitations. We are not able to predict with any certainty what effect, if any, these regulations will have on us, but, other factors being equal, the regulations may, over time, tend to increase transportation costs, which may have the effect of reducing wellhead prices for oil.
 
 
Under the EP Act 2005, the FERC has civil penalty authority under the NGA to impose penalties for current violations of up to $1 million per day for each violation and disgorgement of profits associated with any violation. While our gas operations have not been regulated by the FERC under the NGA, FERC has adopted regulations that may subject certain of our otherwise non-FERC jurisdictional entities to FERC annual reporting.  Additional rules and legislation pertaining to those and other matters may be considered or adopted by the FERC from time to time. Failure to comply with those regulations in the future could subject us to civil penalty liability.
 
Our oil and gas exploration and production and related activities are subject to extensive environmental regulations and to laws that can give rise to substantial liabilities from environmental contamination.
 
Our operations are subject to extensive federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations, which impose limitations on the emission and discharge of pollutants into the environment, establish standards for the management, treatment, storage, transportation and disposal of hazardous materials and solid and hazardous wastes, and impose obligations to investigate and remediate contamination in certain circumstances.  Liabilities to investigate or remediate contamination, as well as other liabilities concerning hazardous materials or contamination such as claims for personal injury or property damage, may arise at many locations, including properties in which we have an ownership interest but no operational control, properties we formerly owned or operated and sites where our wastes have been treated or disposed of, as well as at properties that we currently own or operate.  Such liabilities may arise even where the contamination does not result from any noncompliance with applicable environmental laws regardless of fault.  Under a number of environmental laws, such liabilities may also be strict, joint and several, meaning that we could be held responsible for more than our share of the liability involved, or even the entire share.  Environmental requirements generally have become more stringent in recent years, and compliance with those requirements more expensive.
 
We have incurred expenses in connection with environmental compliance, and we anticipate that we will continue to do so in the future.  Failure to comply with extensive applicable environmental laws and regulations could result in significant civil or criminal penalties and remediation costs, as well as the issuance of administrative or judicial orders limiting operations or prohibiting certain activities.  Some of our properties, including properties in which we have an ownership interest but no operating control, may be affected by environmental contamination that may require investigation or remediation.  Some of our operations are located in environmentally sensitive environments, such as coastal waters, wetlands and other protected areas.  Some of our operations are in areas particularly susceptible to damage by hurricanes or other destructive storms, which could result in damage to facilities and discharge of pollutants.  In addition, claims are sometimes made or threatened against companies engaged in oil and gas exploration and production by owners of surface estates, adjoining properties or others alleging damage resulting from environmental contamination and other incidents of operation, and such claims have been asserted against us as well as companies we have acquired.  Compliance with, and liabilities for remediation under, these laws and regulations, and liabilities concerning contamination or hazardous materials, may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Climate change legislation or regulations restricting emissions of “greenhouse gases” could result in increased operating costs and reduced demand for the crude oil and gas that we produce.
 
In December 2009, the EPA determined that emissions of carbon dioxide, methane and other “greenhouse gases” present an endangerment to public health and the environment, because emissions of such gases are, according to the EPA, contributing to warming of the Earth’s atmosphere and other climatic changes.  Based on these findings, the EPA adopted two sets of rules regulating greenhouse gas emissions under the Clean Air Act, including emissions of greenhouse gases from certain large stationary sources.  The EPA’s rules relating to emissions of greenhouse gases from large stationary sources of emissions are currently subject to a number of legal challenges, but the federal courts have thus far declined to issue any injunctions to prevent the EPA from implementing, or requiring state environmental agencies to implement, the rules.  The EPA has also adopted rules requiring the reporting of greenhouse gas emissions from specified large greenhouse gas emission sources in the United States, including certain onshore oil and gas production facilities, on an annual basis.
 
In addition, from time to time Congress has considered adopting legislation to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases and almost one-half of the states have already taken legal measures to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases, primarily through the planned development of greenhouse gas emission inventories and/or regional greenhouse gas cap and trade programs.  Most of these cap and trade programs work by requiring major sources of emissions, such as electric power plants or major producers of fuels, such as refineries and gas processing plants, to acquire and surrender emission allowances. The number of allowances available for purchase is reduced each year in an effort to achieve the overall greenhouse gas emission reduction goal.
 
 
The adoption of legislation or regulatory programs to reduce emission of greenhouse gases could require us to incur increased operating costs, such as costs to purchase and operate emission control systems, to acquire emission allowances or comply with new regulatory or reporting requirements. Any such legislation or regulatory programs could also increase the cost of consuming, and thereby reduce demand for, the oil and gas we produce.  Consequently, legislation and regulatory programs to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Finally, it should be noted that some scientists have concluded that increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases in the Earth’s atmosphere may produce climate changes that have significant physical effects, such as increased frequency and severity of storms, droughts, floods and other climatic events. If any such effects were to occur, they could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
 
Federal and state legislation and regulatory initiatives relating to hydraulic fracturing could result in increased costs and additional operating restrictions or delays.
 
Hydraulic fracturing is an important and common practice that is used to stimulate production of gas and/or oil from dense subsurface rock formations.  The hydraulic fracturing process involves the injection of water, sand and chemicals under pressure into the formation to fracture the surrounding rock and stimulate production.  We commonly use hydraulic fracturing as part of our operations.  Hydraulic fracturing typically is regulated by state oil and gas commissions, but the EPA has asserted federal regulatory authority pursuant to the Safe Drinking Water Act over certain hydraulic fracturing activities involving the use of diesel.  At the state level, several states have adopted or are considering legal requirements that could impose more stringent permitting, chemical disclosure and well construction requirements on hydraulic fracturing activities. If new or more stringent federal, state or local legal restrictions relating to the hydraulic fracturing process are adopted in areas where we operate, we could incur potentially significant added costs to comply with such requirements, experience delays or curtailment in the pursuit of exploration, development or production activities, and perhaps even be precluded from drilling wells.

On August 16, 2012, the EPA adopted final regulations under the Clean Air Act that, among other things, require additional emission controls for gas and NGL production, including New Source Performance Standards to address emissions of sulfur dioxide and volatile organic compounds (“VOCs”) and a separate set of emission standards to address hazardous air pollutants frequently associated with such production activities.  The final regulations require the reduction of VOC emissions from gas wells through the use of reduced emission completions or “green completions” on all hydraulically fractured wells constructed or refractured after January 1, 2015.  For well completion operations occurring at such well sites before January 1, 2015, the final regulations allow operators to capture and direct flowback emissions to completion combustion devices, such as flares, in lieu of performing green completions.  These regulations also establish specific new requirements regarding emissions from dehydrators, storage tanks and other production equipment.  Compliance with these requirements could increase our costs of development and production.
 
In addition, certain governmental reviews are either underway or being proposed that focus on environmental aspects of hydraulic fracturing practices.  The EPA has commenced a study of the potential environmental effects of hydraulic fracturing on water resources. The EPA’s study includes 18 separate research projects addressing topics such as water acquisition, chemical mixing, well injection, flowback and produced water, and wastewater treatment and disposal. The EPA has indicated that it expects to issue its study report in late 2014.  Moreover, the EPA is developing effluent limitations for the treatment and discharge of wastewater resulting from hydraulic fracturing activities and plans to propose these standards by late 2014.  Other governmental agencies, including the U.S. Department of Energy and the U.S. Department of the Interior, are evaluating various other aspects of hydraulic fracturing.  These efforts could spur initiatives to further regulate hydraulic fracturing under the Safe Drinking Water Act or other regulatory mechanisms, ultimately make it more difficult or costly for us to perform hydraulic fracturing and increase our costs of compliance and doing business.
 
Our operations are substantially dependent on the availability of water. Restrictions on our ability to obtain water may have an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
 
Water is an essential component of both the drilling and hydraulic fracturing processes. Historically, we have been able to purchase water from various sources for use in our operations. During the past several years, West Texas and Southeastern New Mexico have experienced the lowest inflows of water in recent history, and these drought conditions expanded into the southern plains states in 2012. As a result of this severe drought, some local water districts may begin restricting the use of water subject to their jurisdiction for drilling and hydraulic fracturing in order to protect the local water supply. If we are unable to obtain water to use in our operations from local sources, we may be unable to economically produce oil and gas, which could have an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
 

Exploratory drilling involves many risks and we may become liable for pollution or other liabilities which may have an adverse effect on our consolidated financial position.
 
Drilling operations generally involve a high degree of risk. Hazards such as unusual or unexpected geological formations, power outages, labor disruptions, blow-outs, sour gas leakage, fire, inability to obtain suitable or adequate machinery, equipment or labor, and other risks are involved. We may become subject to liability for pollution or hazards against which we cannot adequately insure or for which we may elect not to insure. Incurring any such liability may have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position and operations.

Any change in government regulation and/or administrative practices may have a negative impact on our ability to operate and our profitability.

The laws, regulations, policies or current administrative practices of any government body, organization or regulatory agency in the United States or any other jurisdiction, may be changed, applied or interpreted in a manner which will fundamentally alter the ability of our Company to carry on our business.

The actions, policies or regulations, or changes thereto, of any government body or regulatory agency, or other special interest groups, may have a detrimental effect on us. Any or all of these situations may have a negative impact on our ability to operate and/or our profitably.

Our insurance may be inadequate to cover liabilities we may incur.

Our involvement in the exploration for and development of oil and gas properties may result in our becoming subject to liability for pollution, blow-outs, property damage, personal injury or other hazards.  Although we will obtain insurance in accordance with industry standards to address such risks, such insurance has limitations on liability that may not be sufficient to cover the full extent of such liabilities.  In addition, such risks may not, in all circumstances, be insurable or, in certain circumstances, we may choose not to obtain insurance to protect against specific risks due to the high premiums associated with such insurance or for other reasons.  The payment of such uninsured liabilities would reduce the funds available to us.  If we suffer a significant event or occurrence that is not fully insured, or if the insurer of such event is not solvent, we could be required to divert funds from capital investment or other uses towards covering our liability for such events.

Our business will suffer if we cannot obtain or maintain the necessary licenses.

Our operations will require licenses, permits and in some cases renewals of licenses and permits from various governmental authorities.  Our ability to obtain, sustain or renew such licenses and permits on acceptable terms is subject to changes in regulations and policies and to the discretion of the applicable government agencies, among other factors.  Our inability to obtain, or our loss of or denial of extension, to any of these licenses or permits could hamper our ability to produce revenues from our operations.

Certain United States federal income tax deductions currently available with respect to oil and natural gas exploration and production may be eliminated as a result of future legislation.
 
Recently, there has been significant discussion among members of Congress regarding potential legislation that, if enacted into law, would eliminate certain key United States federal income tax incentives currently available to oil and natural gas exploration and production companies. These changes include, among other proposals:

·  
the repeal of the limited percentage depletion allowance for oil and natural gas production in the United States;
·  
the replacement of expensing intangible drilling and development costs in the year incurred with an amortization of those costs over several years;
·  
the elimination of the deduction for certain domestic production activities; and
·  
an extension of the amortization period for certain geological and geophysical expenditures.
 
It is unclear whether these or similar changes will be enacted. The passage of this legislation or any similar changes in federal income tax laws could eliminate or postpone certain tax deductions that are currently available with respect to U.S. oil and natural gas exploration and development. Any such changes could have an adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
 

Challenges to our properties may impact our consolidated financial condition.
 
Title to oil and gas interests is often not capable of conclusive determination without incurring substantial expense.  While we intend to make appropriate inquiries into the title of properties and other development rights we acquire, title defects may exist.  In addition, we may be unable to obtain adequate insurance for title defects, on a commercially reasonable basis or at all.  If title defects do exist, it is possible that we may lose all or a portion of our right, title and interests in and to the properties to which the title defects relate.  If our property rights are reduced, our ability to conduct our exploration, development and production activities may be impaired.

We will rely on technology to conduct our business and our technology could become ineffective or obsolete.

We rely on technology, including geographic and seismic analysis techniques and economic models, to develop our reserve estimates and to guide our exploration, development and production activities.  We will be required to continually enhance and update our technology to maintain its efficacy and to avoid obsolescence.  The costs of doing so may be substantial, and may be higher than the costs that we anticipate for technology maintenance and development.  If we are unable to maintain the efficacy of our technology, our ability to manage our business and to compete may be impaired.  Further, even if we are able to maintain technical effectiveness, our technology may not be the most efficient means of reaching our objectives, in which case we may incur higher operating costs than we would were our technology more efficient.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR COMMON STOCK

There has been a limited trading market for our common stock.

It is anticipated that there will be a limited trading market for our common stock on the Over-the-Counter Markets Group (“OTCQB”).  The lack of an active market may impair your ability to sell your shares at the time you wish to sell them or at a price that you consider reasonable.  The lack of an active market may also reduce the fair market value of your shares.  An inactive market may also impair our ability to raise capital by selling shares of capital stock and may impair our ability to acquire other companies or assets by using common stock as consideration.
 
You may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our common stock.

The common stock may not be actively traded, and the bid and asked prices for our common stock on the OTCQB may fluctuate widely.  As a result, investors may find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our securities.  This severely limits the liquidity of the common stock, and would likely reduce the market price of our common stock and hamper our ability to raise additional capital.
 
Our common stock is not currently traded at high volume, and you may be unable to sell at or near ask prices or at all if you need to sell or liquidate a substantial number of shares at one time.

Our common stock is currently traded, but with very low, if any, volume, based on quotations on the OTCQB, meaning that the number of persons interested in purchasing our common stock at or near bid prices at any given time may be relatively small or non-existent.  This situation is attributable to a number of factors, including the fact that we are a small company which is still relatively unknown to stock analysts, stock brokers, institutional investors and others in the investment community that generate or influence sales volume, and that even if we came to the attention of such persons, they tend to be risk-averse and would be reluctant to follow an unproven company such as ours or purchase or recommend the purchase of our shares until such time as we became more seasoned and viable.  As a consequence, there may be periods of several days or more when trading activity in our shares is minimal or non-existent, as compared to a seasoned issuer which has a large and steady volume of trading activity that will generally support continuous sales without an adverse effect on share price.  We cannot give you any assurance that a broader or more active public trading market for our common stock will develop or be sustained, or that trading levels will be sustained.

Shareholders should be aware that, according to Commission Release No. 34-29093, the market for “penny stocks” has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse.  Such patterns include (1) control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer; (2) manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases; (3) boiler room practices involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons; (4) excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differential and markups by selling broker-dealers; and (5) the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the resulting inevitable collapse of those prices and with consequent investor losses.  Our management is aware of the abuses that have occurred historically in the penny stock market.  Although we do not expect to be in a position to dictate the behavior of the market or of broker-dealers who participate in the market, management will strive within the confines of practical limitations to prevent the described patterns from being established with respect to our securities. The occurrence of these patterns or practices could increase the future volatility of our share price.
 

The market price of our common stock may, and is likely to continue to be, highly volatile and subject to wide fluctuations.

The market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to a number of factors that are beyond our control, including:
 
·  
dilution caused by our issuance of additional shares of common stock and other forms of equity securities in connection with future capital financings to fund our operations and growth, to attract and retain valuable personnel and in connection with future strategic partnerships with other companies;
·  
announcements of new acquisitions, reserve discoveries or other business initiatives by our competitors;
·  
our ability to take advantage of new acquisitions, reserve discoveries or other business initiatives;
·  
fluctuations in revenue from our oil and gas business as new reserves come to market;
·  
changes in the market for oil and natural gas commodities and/or in the capital markets generally;
·  
changes in the demand for oil and natural gas, including changes resulting from the introduction or expansion  of alternative fuels;
·  
quarterly variations in our revenues and operating expenses;
·  
changes in the valuation of similarly situated companies, both in our industry and in other industries;
·  
changes in analysts’ estimates affecting our company, our competitors and/or our industry;
·  
changes in the accounting methods used in or otherwise affecting our industry;
·  
additions and departures of key personnel;
·  
announcements by relevant governments pertaining to incentives for alternative energy development programs;
·  
fluctuations in interest rates and the availability of capital in the capital markets; and
·  
significant sales of our common stock, including sales by future investors in future offerings we expect to make to raise additional capital.
 
These and other factors are largely beyond our control, and the impact of these risks, singly or in the aggregate, may result in material adverse changes to the market price of our common stock and/or our consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

We do not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.

We do not intend to declare dividends for the foreseeable future, as we anticipate that we will reinvest any future earnings in the development and growth of our business.  Therefore, investors will not receive any funds unless they sell their common stock, and stockholders may be unable to sell their shares on favorable terms or at all.  Investors cannot be assured of a positive return on investment or that they will not lose the entire amount of their investment in the common stock.

Our officers, directors and principal shareholders own a controlling interest in our voting stock and investors will not have any voice in our management.

Our officers, directors and principal shareholders in the aggregate, beneficially own or control the votes of approximately 62.97% of our outstanding common stock. As a result, these stockholders, acting together, will have the ability to control substantially all matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including:
 
·  
election of our board of directors;
·  
removal of any of our directors;
·  
amendment of our certificate of incorporation or bylaws; and
·  
adoption of measures that could delay or prevent a change in control or impede a merger, takeover or other business combination involving us.
 
As a result of their ownership and positions, our directors, executive officers and principal shareholders collectively are able to influence all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. In addition, sales of significant amounts of shares held by our directors, executive officers or principal shareholders, or the prospect of these sales, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Management's stock ownership may discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us, which in turn could reduce our stock price or prevent our stockholders from realizing a premium over our stock price.
 
 
Our common stock is subject to the "penny stock" rules of the SEC and the trading market in our securities is limited, which makes transactions in our stock cumbersome and may reduce the value of an investment in our stock.

The SEC has adopted Rule 15g-9 which establishes the definition of a "penny stock," for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require:
 
·  
that a broker or dealer approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks; and
·  
the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.

In order to approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:
 
·  
obtain financial information and confirm the investment experience and objectives of the person; and
·  
make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and that the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.
 
The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:
 
·  
sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and
·  
that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.
 
Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the "penny stock" rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.

Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.

FINRA sales practice requirements may also limit a shareholder’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. The 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.

ITEM 1B.  UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS.

None.

ITEM 2.  PROPERTIES.

Our principal executive offices are located at 218 N. Broadway, Suite 204 Tyler, Texas 75702. Our telephone number is (903) 595-4139.
 
The principal executive office occupies 2,200 square feet.  The original lease expired in 2010 and the principal executive office is now leased on a month to month basis at a rate of $1,300/month.
   
Our field operations are conducted out of our Jefferson, Texas office at 3546 N. US Hwy. 59, Jefferson, Texas 75657, and the phone number is (903) 665-8225.  The lease is for 5,300 square feet and the monthly rent is $4,500 per month. The office space is being leased on a monthly basis.  The monthly cost includes surface-use rights for the storing of equipment. 
 
Our oil and gas assets are located in Cass and Marion counties in northeast Texas. As of March 1, 2014, we operated 20 wells, of which 15 were producing. We recently plugged two non-producing wells and we intend to perform work-over operations on the five non-producing wells.
 

As of March 1, 2014, our leasehold position is approximately 28,697 gross acres and 17,898 net acres of which our working interest is 11,352 acres. We hold working interests of between 25% and 80% in individual leases. Our leasing program’s primary objective is to support the planned drilling program by securing holdout leases in those units where we plan to drill over the next twelve months and renew leases that are due to expire in the units where we plan to drill.  Most of our proved undeveloped acreage is subject to lease expiration if initial wells are not drilled within a specified period, generally not exceeding three years.  Our intention is to renew all leases within our planned drilling zones that expire in the next three years.

In addition to the operating of the wells, we own an 80% undivided interest in approximately 40 miles of a natural gas pipeline.

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. We are currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated financial condition, or operating results.

RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES AND EQUITY PURCHASES BY THE COMPANY

On October 2, 2013, we issued 50,000 to a consultant for services rendered.  The shares were issued in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(a)(2) and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”).

On December 20, 2013, we sold in a private placement a total of 1,944,119 Units (the “Units”), to certain investors for aggregate cash proceeds of $1,749,707.

Each Unit had a purchase price of $0.90 per Unit and consisted of  two (2) shares of common stock, $0.001 par value (the “Common Stock”)  and a  warrant to purchase one (1) share of common stock (the “Warrants”).  The Warrants have an exercise price of $0.70 per share of Common Stock and will be exercisable for a period of five years from the date of issuance.
 
 
The Units sold in the private placement were not registered under the Securities Act, or the securities laws of any state, and were offered and sold in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(a)(2), Rule 506 of Regulation D and Rule 903 of Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act and corresponding provisions of state securities laws, which exempt transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering. Based on representations from the investors, the Company determined that the investors are either “accredited investors,” as such term is defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act or not a “U.S. person,” as that term is defined in Rule 902(k) of Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act, and such investors acquired our common stock, for investment purposes for their own respective accounts and not as nominees or agents, and not with a view to the resale or distribution thereof, and that the investors understood that the shares of our common stock may not be sold or otherwise disposed of without registration under the Securities Act or an applicable exemption therefrom.

Company Overview

We are an independent energy company engaged in the exploration for, and production of, crude oil and natural gas.  Our focus is on the development of a repeatable, low-geological risk, high-potential project in the active East Texas oil and gas region.  We currently hold interests in properties located in Cass and Marion Counties, Texas, home to the Rodessa oil field.  This field has historically been the domain of small independent operators and is not a legacy field for any major oil company.

Our business strategy in what we have designated the “Cornerstone Project”, is to identify and exploit resources in and adjacent to existing or indicated producing areas within the mature Rodessa field. We believe that we are uniquely familiar with the history and geology of the Cornerstone Project area based on our collective experience in the region as well as through our development and ownership of a large proprietary database which details the drilling history of the Cornerstone Project area since 1980.  We plan to develop and produce reserves at low cost and will take an aggressive approach to exploiting our contiguous acreage position through utilization of the latest “best in class” drilling and completion techniques.  In 2012, we drilled the Morse #1-H well targeting the Bossier formation and completed it using hydraulic fracture stimulation techniques.  The Morse #1-H is the first such horizontal well completed in the Rodessa field and we believe that implementing the latest proven drilling and completion techniques to exploit our geological insight in the Cornerstone Project area will enable us to find significant oil and gas reserves.

Plan of Operations

Our corporate strategy can be thought of in terms of the acquisition of leases and the development of resources on leased acreage.

Acquisition of Leases in the Cornerstone Project area
 
As of March 1, 2014, our leasehold position is approximately 28,697 gross acres and 17,898 net acres, of which our working interest is approximately 11,352 net acres.  Our acreage position declined, by approximately 3,000 gross acres and 1,624 net working interest acres, over the last 12 months.  This decline followed the expiration of leases, which we chose not to renew for strategic reasons.

·  
Supporting Our Drilling Program.  Our priority is now drilling, and consequently, our leasing program’s primary objective is to support our planned drilling program by securing holdout leases in those units where we plan to drill over the next twelve months and renewing leases that are due to expire in those units where we plan to drill.

·  
Acquiring Additional Drilling Locations.  We have an extensive proprietary database that we use to identify additional drilling locations and target acreage for acquisition in the Cornerstone Project area.  Most properties in the project area are held by smaller independent companies that lack the resources and expertise to develop them fully.  We intend to pursue these opportunities to selectively expand our portfolio of properties.  Acreage additions will complement our existing substantial acreage position in the area and provide us with additional drilling opportunities.


Development of Resources in the Cornerstone Project area
 
Approximately two-thirds of our net leased acreage is currently undeveloped (approximately 7,524 undeveloped net acres of a total of 11,352 net acres as of March 1, 2014). The primary focus of our drilling program is to develop the resources of these undeveloped acres and subsequently hold this acreage with production rather than to develop our existing reserves on developed acreage.
 
·  
Horizontal Wells Targeting the Bossier/Cotton Valley Limestone.  Our priority is to drill horizontal wells targeting the Bossier/Cotton Valley Limestone.  We employ the latest horizontal drilling and dynamic multi-stage fracking techniques that have proven successful in the Bakken Shale in North Dakota and elsewhere, to develop the low permeability oil bearing Bossier and Cotton Valley Limestone formations.  Our first horizontal well, the Morse #1-H, was drilled with a 2,000 foot horizontal section. This well was completed with a fivestage frack and recorded an average production rate of 281 Bbl/day of high quality crude oil in its first five days of production. A jet pump system was initially employed to assist production and the well was later shut in for a period of 33 days between August and September 2012, for the installation of a gas lift production system. The well was shut in again on February 25, 2013, for the performance of a remedial work-over operation. The well returned to production on March 19, 2013. The production rate initially stabilized at a rate of approximately 55 Bbl/day of oil and 75 MCF of gas per day. The production rate subsequently declined to an average of 38 Bbl/day of oil as recorded in January 2014. This decline has been irregular and we have observed unexpected surges in production.  During a three day period in November 2013, production surged to a peak of 83 Bbl/day from the previous average of approximately 30 Bbl/day. In early February 2014, production surged to a peak rate of 74 Bbl/day of oil over a three day period and later surged to a peak rate of 72 Bbl/day of oil over an eight day period. Due to these surges, the average production of approximately 35 BB/day during February 2014 was the highest recorded production since July 2013.  These surges in production lead us to believe that the reservoir is capable of greater production, and that the Morse #1-H well’s production rate has been compromised by the gas lift system and/or by an obstruction in the well bore. We are actively researching an intervention and intend to perform a workover of the well, which may involve the installation of a mechanical pump to replace the gas lift system; no date has yet been set for such work.  We expect that it would take approximately 30 days to install such a mechanical pump system. We believe that the successful production of oil from the Morse #1-H supports our development strategy. We have learned much from the drilling, completion and production of the Morse #1-H that will enable us to improve the design and execution of our next planned horizontal well targeting the Bossier/Cotton Valley Limestone. Having proven our development model, we now plan to drill wells with longer laterals involving 15 frack stages to improve the well economics. We estimate that the drilling and completion costs of such wells will be approximately $7-$9 million. We are not currently capitalized to drill a program of such wells to develop the Bossier/Cotton Valley Limestone and are actively engaged in securing the finance to fund such a drilling program. We have a 56% working interest in the Morse #1-H well.
 
·  
Vertical Wells. Our secondary priority is to drill vertical wells to offset the Norbord #1 discovery of 2010 in the Travis Peak and to recomplete existing wells to maximize their present value by utilizing a multi-zone production technique.  In March 2012, we successfully completed the Haggard A well, which is an offset to the Norbord discovery in 2010. The Haggard A was our most productive gas well in 2013.  Following unsuccessful work-over attempts in 2013 on the Norbord #1, which ceased production from the Travis Peak formation in September 2012, we plugged and abandoned the well in February 2014.  We also decided to abandon the Swamp Fox well and plugged it in February 2014.

Revenues:  Total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2013 totaled $1,876,629 compared to $1,546,861 for the year ended December 31, 2012.  Oil revenue for the year ended December 31, 2013 was $1,015,398 compared to $1,067,113 for the year ended December 31, 2012. This decrease of $51,715 represented a 5% decrease in oil revenue and was a consequence of a 12% decline in sales volumes offset by an 8% increase in the realized oil sales price from $91.32 per barrel for the year ended December 31, 2012 to $99.84 per barrel for the year ended December 31, 2013.  The primary reasons for the fluctuation in sales volume during the year ended December 31, 2013 were:

·  
The Morse #1-H was shut in for three weeks during 2013 while a workover was performed, which resulted in a net decrease of $179,585  in revenue;
·  
The Haggard A well did not have any production during the year ended December 31, 2012 but generated $88,811 in revenue during the year ended December 31, 2013; and
·  
The Haggard B well only had production in the last quarter of 2012 which generated $16,027 in revenue but had $55,394 in revenue during the year ended December 31, 2013 resulting in an increase of $39,367.

Gas revenue increased 110% from $292,412 for the year ended December 31, 2012 to $613,408 for the year ended December 31, 2013. This increase was primarily a result of a 51% increase in sales volume from 2012 to 2013 and a 38% increase in the realized sales price.  We received a realized sales price of $3.68 per MCF for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to $2.67 per MCF for the year ended December 31, 2012. Gas sales of $251,464 from the Haggard A and $75,874 from the Haggard B accounted for the majority of the increase of $320,996 for the year ended December 31, 2013, which were partially offset from the loss of gas sales of $75,990 from the Norbord during the year ended December 31, 2012, as that well was abandoned in early 2013.

 Transportation and gathering revenue increased $61,348 from $144,693 for the year ended December 31, 2012, to $206,041 for the year ended December 31, 2013.  The increase was primarily a consequence of increased volumes transported.  Condensate and skim oil was $41,782 and $42,643 for the year ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
  
Expenses:  Total operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2013 were $4,806,270, compared to $7,401,071 for the year ended December 31, 2012, resulting in a total decrease of $2,594,801.  This change was primarily a result of a large decrease in general and administrative expenses offset by increases in lease operating expenses, pipeline operating expenses and depletion and depreciation.

·  
General and Administrative Expenses:  There was a $3,121,582 decrease in general and administrative expenses to $3,074,590 for the year ended December 31, 2013 from $6,196,172 for the year ended December 31, 2012.  The primary reason for the decrease was stock-based compensation of $2,719,888 incurred during the year ended December 31, 2012, whereas there was only $655,181 stock-based compensation incurred in the 2013, a decrease of $2,064,707. The compensation resulted from the issuance of stock options to selected employees, executives, directors, and consultants.

In addition, investor relations consulting fees decreased $1,021,970 to $35,500 for the year ended December 31, 2013, due to contracts we engaged in for 2012 with companies to assist us with the implementation and maintenance of ongoing programs to increase the investment community’s awareness of our activities, stimulate their interest in us and assist with our press release production and dissemination.  These contracts were not renewed in 2013. In addition, advertising and marketing costs decreased $226,598 to $86,170 for the year ended December 31, 2013 due to various contracts held in 2012 with companies for investor relations that were not renewed in 2013. These were offset by an increase of $171,173 in salaries and wages during the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012, due to the engagement of the chief financial officer in October 2012.

·  
Lease Operating Expense:  Total lease operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2013 were $1,074,466 compared to $647,749 for the year ended December 31, 2013.  The increase of $426,717 is a result of: (1) $153,063 in increased lease operating expenses for the Morse #1-H well, which was in production for the full year in 2013 (except for a brief three week period for workover performed) compared to approximately four months of production during 2012; (2) $133,290 in lease operating expenses for the Haggard A, which commenced production in the second quarter of 2013 and incurred no lease operating expense in 2012; (3) the purchase of seven wells in June 2012, which resulted in an increase of $62,696 in lease operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to lease operating expenses incurred for only six months during the year ended December 31, 2012; (4) an increase of $36,352 in lease operating expenses for the Haggard B, which commenced production in the second quarter of 2012 and incurred lease operating expense for the full year during 2013; and (5) an increase of $26,385 in lease operating expenses for the Norbord well following an increase in our share of lease operating expenses from 25% in the year ended December 31, 2012 to 80% in the year ended December 31, 2013.

·  
Depletion and Depreciation Expense:  Total depletion and depreciation for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $427,701, compared to $470,739 for the year ended December 31, 2013. The increase of $43,038 was due to the addition of new wells and development costs.
 

Other Income (Expenses):  Total other expenses for the year ended December 31, 2013 was $774,892, compared to $665,567 for the year ended December 31, 2012, resulting in an increase of $109,325.  The primary reason for the increase was a non-cash gain from the change in fair value of the derivative liability of $88,868 recognized in the year ended December 31, 2012.  The 2007 derivative warrants expired in December 2012 eliminating the associated derivative warrant liability.
 
Income Tax Expense:  During the year ended December 31, 2012, we recognized a net income tax expense of $3,515 for state franchise taxes, whereas no such expense was recorded in the year ended December 31, 2013.

Net Loss:  As a result of the above described revenues and expenses, we incurred a net loss of $3,704,533 in the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to a net loss of $6,523,292 in the year ended December 31, 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We held $2,467,761 in cash at December 31, 2013, made up of a majority of our cash accounts. However, at December 31, 2013, several cash accounts had an overdraft that totaled $255,628 resulting in net cash of $2,212,133. We held $1,421,198 in cash at December 31, 2012, which when netted against the overdrafts of $17,795, resulted in a net cash of $1,403,403. The overall  increase in cash was due to net funds raised from the sale of stock and cash generated from operating activities which exceeded cash used in the investing activities, which included purchases of oil and gas mineral leases and well equipment.

The net loss of $6,523,292 for the year ended December 31, 2012, decreased by $2,818,759 to $3,704,533 for the year ended December 31, 2013. Non-cash income and expense decreased $2,945,567 from $4,274,852 for the year ended December 31, 2012 to $1,329,285 for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Non-cash expense for stock-based compensation decreased $2,064,707 to $655,181 incurred during the year ended December 31, 2013, from $2,719,888 incurred during the year ended December 31, 2012.  This compensation resulted from the issuance of stock options to selected employees, executives and directors as incentive for continuing our development. There was a decrease of $860,000 in non-cash expense for stock issued to consultants for the year ended December 31, 2013 to $35,500, compared to $895,500 for the year ended December 31, 2012 due to the various contracts in 2012 that were terminated or not renewed in 2013.  The change in fair value of the warrant derivative liability for the year ended December 31, 2013 was $-0-, compared to non-cash income of $88,868 for the year ended December 31, 2012.  Both the warrant derivative liability and the change in their fair value were $-0- for 2013 due to the expiration of the associated warrants in December 2012. There was a decrease in warrant modification expense of $160,432 to $134,102 for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to $294,534 for the year ended December 31, 2012 due to the expiration of warrants.  Depletion, depreciation, and accretion expense increased by $50,174 to $504,248 for the year ended December 31, 2013, primarily as a consequence of increased production and reserves.

Operating assets decreased by $1,606,568 for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to an increase of $1,464,032 for the year ended December 31, 2012, resulting in a change of $3,070,600.  $2,472,789 of this change is the result of related party receivables decreasing $1,269,781 in the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to an increase of $1,203,008 for the year ended December 31, 2012.  Joint interest billings receivable decreased $233,421 in the year ended December 31, 2013 and increased $187,911 in the year ended December 31, 2012, resulting in a change of approximately $421,332.  The decrease in these receivables was due in part to payments received and the netting of revenues from working interest owners during the year ended December 31, 2013.  In addition, there was a substantial amount of drilling and completion work expenses on the Morse #1-H well during 2012 which resulted in an increase in receivables of $1,390,919, whereas with less drilling activity in 2013, the receivables due from working interest partners decreased.  Trade accounts receivable decreased by $103,988 in 2013, whereas they increased by $99,180 in 2012, resulting in an increase in cash flow of $203,168 in 2013.  The remaining changes in operating assets of approximately $26,689 consisted of changes in accounts receivable, related parties and other assets.


Operating liabilities increased by $1,351,652 for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to an increase of $966,160 for the year ended December 31, 2012, resulting in a change of $385,492.  Accounts payable increased by $45,592 in 2013, whereas it had declined $392,833 in 2012, resulting in an increase of $438,425.  This increase was related to the workover expenses on the Morse #1-H, Norbord and Haggard B wells incurred during 2013.  The changes in liquidated damages increased $180,118, from a decrease of $173,486 for the year ended December 31, 2012 to an increase of $6,632 for the year ended to December 31, 2012, which was due to modifications to warrant agreements in 2012.  Revenue payable increased $160,877 for the year ended December 31, 2013, a decrease of $213,679, compared to the $374,556 increase during the year ended December 31, 2012.  The majority of this decrease was due to the release of monies during 2013 for amounts held in legal suspense for royalty owners pending completion of title work and division orders. The remaining changes in other operating liabilities of approximately $19,370 consisted of changes in accounts payable, related parties and other payables.

Cash Used in Investing Activities: For the year ended December 31, 2013, cash used in investing activities was $1,770,162, compared to $8,282,697 for the year ended December 31, 2012, resulting in a decrease of $6,512,535. We spent $8,037,047 on lease and well equipment, and intangible drilling and completion costs for work done on the Haggard A, Haggard B, and Morse #1-H wells during the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to $1,758,160 spent in 2013 on the completion of the Haggard B and the purchase of mineral leases, resulting in a decrease of $6,278,887. In addition, there was $245,485 spent on the purchases of property and equipment during the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to $11,892 in purchases during the year ended December 31, 2013, resulting in a decrease of $233,593.

Cash Provided by Financing Activities: For the year ended December 31, 2013, cash provided by financing activities totaled $2,233,753 compared to $5,700,839 for the year ended December 31, 2012, resulting in a decrease of $3,467,086. In the year ended December 31, 2012, we received $5,855,086 in net proceeds from the sale of common stock and units of common stock and warrants, compared to $1,999,231 in the year ended December 31, 2013. The remaining change in cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2013 was primarily a result of changes in the cash overdraft. There was a $146,565 decrease in our cash overdrafts for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to an increase of $237,833 in our cash overdrafts for the year ended December 31, 2013, resulting in an increase of $384,398.

Sources of Liquidity

Production revenues have not been sufficient to finance our operating expenses; therefore, we have had to raise capital in recent years to fund our activities. Planned lease acquisitions and exploration, development, production and marketing activities, as well as administrative requirements (such as salaries, insurance expenses, general overhead expenses, legal compliance costs and accounting expenses) will require a substantial amount of additional capital and cash flow.

We expect that additional funds raised from future financing activities will be needed to finance our operations for the next twelve months.  The extent of our drilling program in 2014 is dependent on our ability to raise additional capital.  There are no guarantees that we will be able to raise additional funds on terms acceptable to us, if at all.  We will also consider farm-out agreements, whereby we would lease parts of our properties to other operators for drilling purposes and we would receive payment based on the production.  

We are actively pursuing sources of additional capital through various financing transactions or arrangements, including farm-outs, joint venturing of projects, debt financing, equity financing and other means.  

December 2013 - February 2014 Financing

In December 2013, we sold in a private placement a total of 1,999,674 units, each unit consisting of two shares of common stock and a five-year warrant to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $0.70 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $1,799,707.  In February 2014, we sold 781,000 additional units for an aggregate purchase price of $702,900.  Aggregate offering expenses for the private placement totaled $53,475.

In connection with the financing, we granted each purchaser registration rights.  We are obligated to use our commercially reasonable efforts to cause a registration statement registering for resale the common stock underlying the warrants to be filed no later than 120 days from the date of termination of the financing.

September 2013 Financing

In September 2013, we sold in a private placement a total of 250,000 Units (the “Units”), each Unit consisting of two shares of common stock and a three-year warrant to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $250,000.  Offering expenses for the private placement totaled $5,000.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our consolidated financial condition, revenues, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.
 

Critical Accounting Policies
 
Our critical accounting policies, including the assumptions and judgments underlying them, are disclosed in the notes to consolidated financial statements which accompany the consolidated financial statements.  These policies have been consistently applied in all material respects and address such matters as revenue recognition and depreciation methods.  The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 consolidated financial statements and the recorded amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from these estimates. 
 
Accounts Receivable

We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers’ financial condition and extend credit to virtually all of our customers.  Collateral is generally not required, nor is interest charged on past due balances.  Credit losses to date have not been significant and have been within management’s expectations.  In the event of complete non-performance by our customers, our maximum exposure is the outstanding accounts receivable balance at the date of non-performance.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from five to thirty-nine years.  Expenditures for major renewals and betterments that extend the useful lives are capitalized.  Expenditures for normal maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.  Upon the sale or abandonment, the cost of the equipment and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gains or losses thereon are recognized in the operating results of the respective period.

Oil and Gas Properties

We use the full-cost method of accounting for our oil and gas producing activities, which are all located in Texas.  Accordingly, all costs associated with the acquisition, exploration, and development of oil and gas reserves, including directly-related overhead costs, are capitalized.

All capitalized costs of oil and gas properties, including the estimated future costs to develop proved reserves, are amortized on the units-of-production method using estimates of proved reserves.  Investments in unproved properties and major development projects are not amortized until proved reserves associated with the projects can be determined or until impairment occurs.  If the results of an assessment indicate that the properties are impaired, the amount of the impairment will be added to the capitalized costs to be amortized.
 
In addition, the capitalized costs are subject to a “ceiling test,” which limits such costs to the aggregate of the “estimated present value,” discounted at a ten percent interest rate, of future net revenues from proved reserves, based on current economic and operating conditions, plus the lower of cost or fair market value of unproved properties and less the income tax effects related to the properties. 
 
Sales of proved and unproved properties are accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs with no gain or loss recognized, unless such adjustments would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves of oil and gas, in which case the gain or loss is recognized in the operating results of the respective period.
  
Derivative Instruments
 
For derivative instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings each reporting period. For warrant derivative instruments, the Company uses the Black-Scholes model to value the derivative instruments at inception and subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as a liability or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period, in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not the net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

Fair Value of our Debt and Equity Instruments

Many of our various debt and equity transactions require us to determine the fair value of a debt or equity instrument in order to properly record the transaction in our consolidated financial statements.  Fair value is generally determined by applying widely acceptable valuation models, (e.g. the Black Scholes model) using the trading price of the underlying instrument or by comparison to instruments with comparable maturities and terms.
 

Revenue Recognition

We utilize the accrual method of accounting for crude oil and natural gas revenues, whereby revenues are recognized based on our net revenue interest in the wells.  Crude oil inventories are immaterial and are not recorded.

Gas imbalances are accounted for using the entitlement method.  Under this method, revenues are recognized only to the extent of our proportionate share of the gas sold.  However, we have no history of significant gas imbalances.

Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes are determined using the “liability method” in accordance with FASB ASC Topic No. 740, Income Taxes.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.
 
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which such temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the operating results of the period that includes the enactment date.  In addition, a valuation allowance is established to reduce any deferred tax asset for which it is determined that it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-11, “Income Taxes – Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward or Tax Credit Carryforward Exists”. The objective in this update covers FASB ASC Topic 740 and is to eliminate the diversity in presentation of unrecognized tax benefits when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. The amendments in this update will be effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of ASU 2013-11 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In February 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-04, “Liabilities – Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for Which the Total Amount of the Obligations Is Fixed at the Reporting Date”. The amendments in this update cover a wide range of topics in the ASC. These amendments provide guidance for joint and several liability arrangements for amounts fixed at the reporting date. The amendments in this update will be effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of ASU 2013-04 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

INDEX TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 
 
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Pegasi Energy Resources Corporation and subsidiaries

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Pegasi Energy Resources Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended.  The Company’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Pegasi Energy Resources Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

PEGASI ENERGY RESOURCES CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2013 AND 2012
 
1.   NATURE OF OPERATIONS
 
Pegasi Energy Resources Corporation (“PERC” or the “Company”) is an independent energy company engaged in the exploration for, and production of, crude oil and natural gas.  The Company’s focus is on the development of a repeatable, low-geological risk, high-potential project in the active East Texas oil and gas region.  The Company’s business strategy in what it has designated the “Cornerstone Project”, is to identify and exploit resources in and adjacent to existing or indicated producing areas within the mature Rodessa field. The Company believes that it is uniquely familiar with the history and geology of the Cornerstone Project area based on its collective experience in the region as well as through its development and ownership of a large proprietary database, which details the drilling history of the Cornerstone Project area since 1980.  In 2012, the Company drilled the Morse #1-H well targeting the Bossier formation and completed it using hydraulic fracture stimulation techniques.  The Morse #1-H is the first such horizontal well completed in the Rodessa field and the Company believes that implementing the latest proven drilling and completion techniques to exploit its geological insight in the Cornerstone Project area will enable it to find significant oil and gas reserves.

PERC conducts its main exploration and production operations through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Pegasi Operating, Inc. ("POI").  It conducts additional operations through another wholly-owned subsidiary, TR Rodessa, Inc. ("TR Rodessa").  

TR Rodessa owns an 80% undivided interest in and operates a 40-mile natural gas pipeline and gathering system which is currently being used by PERC to transport its hydrocarbons to market.  Excess capacity on this system is used to transport third-party hydrocarbons.  
  
2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a)  Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and include the accounts of PERC and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.  All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.  In preparing the accompanying consolidated financial statements, management has made certain estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and disclosures.  Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Estimates made in preparing these consolidated financial statements include, among other things, estimates of the proved oil and natural gas reserve volumes used in calculating depletion expense; the estimated future cash flows and fair value of properties used in determining the need for any impairment write-down; operating costs accrued; volumes and prices for revenues accrued; estimates of the fair value of stock-based compensation awards; and the timing and amount of future abandonment costs used in calculating asset retirement obligations.  Future changes in the assumptions used could have a significant impact on reported results in future periods.

b)  Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider all highly-liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash equivalents.  We include our overnight sweep accounts that are invested in federal obligations in our cash balances. 

c)  Accounts Receivable

The Company’s accounts receivable consists primarily of oil and natural gas sales and joint interest billings, which are recorded at the invoiced amount. Collateral is not required for such receivables, nor is interest charged on past due balances.  The Company extends credit based on management’s assessment of the customers’ financial condition and evaluates the allowance for doubtful accounts based on a receivable aging, customer disputes and general business and economic conditions.  No allowance was indicated at December 31, 2013 or 2012.  As of December 31, 2013, two customers totaled approximately 42% and 54% of the Company’s total accounts receivable. Accounts receivables from the same two customers in 2012, approximated 63% and 35% of total trade receivables at December 31, 2012.  As of December 31, 2013, there were two customers that accounted for 14% and 62% of the Company’s total joint interest billing receivables. Joint interest billing receivables from two customers in 2012 approximated 73% and 11%.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2013 AND 2012
 
d)  Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from five to thirty-nine years.  Expenditures for major renewals and betterments that extend the useful lives are capitalized.  Expenditures for normal maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.  Upon sale or abandonment, the cost of the equipment and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gains or losses thereon are recognized in the operating results of the respective period.  Depreciation expense was $85,112 and $81,168 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  

e)  Oil and Gas Properties

The Company uses the full-cost method of accounting for its oil and gas producing activities, which are all located in Texas. Accordingly, all costs associated with the acquisition, exploration, and development of oil and gas reserves, including directly related overhead costs, are capitalized.

All capitalized costs of oil and gas properties, including the estimated future costs to develop proved reserves, are amortized on the units-of-production method using estimates of proved reserves. Investments in unproved properties and major development projects are not amortized until proved reserves associated with the projects can be determined or until impairment occurs. If the results of an assessment indicate that the properties are impaired, the amount of the impairment shall be added to the capitalized costs to be amortized.  Depletion expense for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $385,627 and $346,533 ($10.24 and $11.66 per equivalent barrel), respectively.

All items classified as unproved property are assessed on an annual basis for possible impairment or reduction in value.  Properties are assessed on an individual basis or as a group if properties are individually insignificant.  The assessment includes consideration of various factors, including, but not limited to, the following: intent to drill; remaining lease term; geological and geophysical evaluations; drilling results and activity; assignment of proved reserves; and economic viability of development if proved reserves are assigned.  During any period in which these factors indicate an impairment, the cumulative drilling costs incurred to date for such property and all or a portion of the associated leasehold costs are transferred to the full cost pool and become subject to amortization.  As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, our net capitalized costs of oil and gas properties did not exceed the present value of our estimated proved reserves therefore the accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include a provision for impairment.

Sales of proved and unproved properties are accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs with no gain or loss recognized, unless such adjustments would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves of oil and gas, in which case the gain or loss is recognized in the operating results of the period.

The following table sets forth a summary of oil and gas property costs not being amortized at December 31, 2013, by the year in which such costs were incurred. There are no individually significant properties or significant development projects included in costs not being amortized. The 2010 through 2013 amounts are net of reimbursements received in those years for costs incurred in prior years under our leasing program. The majority of the evaluation activities are expected to be completed within five to ten years.

f)  Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The carrying value of property and equipment is periodically evaluated under the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic No. 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment.  FASB ASC Topic No. 360 requires long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  When it is determined that the estimated future net cash flows of an asset will not be sufficient to recover its carrying amount, an impairment loss must be recorded to reduce the carrying amount to its estimated fair value.  The Company had no impairment in 2013 and 2012.

PEGASI ENERGY RESOURCES CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2013 AND 2012
 
g)  Asset Retirement Obligations

FASB ASC Topic No. 410, Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations, requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which the liability is incurred.  For oil and natural gas properties, this is the period in which an oil or natural gas property is acquired or a new well is drilled.  An amount equal to and offsetting the liability is capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the Company’s oil and natural gas properties at its discounted fair value.  The liability is then accreted up by recording expense each period until it is settled or the well is sold, at which time the liability is reversed.  Estimates are based on historical experience in plugging and abandoning wells and estimated remaining lives of those wells based on reserve estimates.  The Company does not provide for a market risk premium associated with asset retirement obligations because a reliable estimate cannot be determined.  See Note 8 – Asset Retirement Obligations for additional information.
 
h)  Revenue Recognition

The Company utilizes the accrual method of accounting for crude oil and natural gas revenues, whereby revenues are recognized based on the Company’s net revenue interest in the wells.  Crude oil inventories are immaterial and are not recorded.  Gas imbalances are accounted for using the entitlement method.  Under this method revenues are recognized only to the extent of the Company’s proportionate share of the gas sold.  However, the Company has no history of significant gas imbalances.

i)  Stock-based Compensation

The Company has accounted for stock-based compensation under the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 718-10, Compensation-Stock Compensation.  The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense in the consolidated financial statements for equity-classified employee stock-based compensation awards based on the grant date fair value of the awards.  Non-employee share-based awards are accounted for based upon FASB ASC Topic 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees.  During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company recognized $655,181 and $2,719,888, respectively, of stock-based compensation expense which has been recorded as a general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations.
 
j) Derivative Instruments

For derivative instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings each reporting period. For warrant derivative instruments, the Company uses the Black-Scholes model to value the derivative instruments at inception and subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as a liability or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period, in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not the net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.
 
k)  Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes are determined using the “liability method” in accordance with FASB ASC Topic No. 740, Income Taxes.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the operating results of the period that includes the enactment date.  In addition, a valuation allowance is established to reduce any deferred tax asset for which it is determined that it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

l)  Net Loss per Common Share

Basic net loss per common share is calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  The Company uses the treasury stock method of calculating fully diluted per share amounts whereby any proceeds from the exercise of stock options or other dilutive instruments are assumed to be used to purchase common shares at the average market price during the period. The dilutive effect of convertible securities is reflected in diluted loss per share by application of the if-converted method. Under this method, conversion shall not be assumed for the purposes of computing diluted loss per share if the effect would be anti-dilutive. For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 the Company had potentially dilutive shares of 42,499,238 and 41,043,486, respectively that were excluded from the earnings per share calculation because their impact would be antidilutive. For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share, as the effect of common stock equivalents are anti-dilutive.
  
m)  Fair Value of Financial Instruments

FASB ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, requires certain disclosures regarding the fair value of financial instruments.  Fair value of financial instruments is made at a specific point in time, based on relevant information about financial markets and specific financial instruments.  As these estimates are subjective in nature, involving uncertainties and matters of significant judgment, they cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions can significantly affect estimated fair values.

FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and it considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability.
 
FASB ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring 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. FASB ASC Topic 820 establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
 
Level 1 - Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
 
Level 2 - Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.
 
Level 3 - Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2013 AND 2012
 
In accordance with the reporting requirements of FASB ASC Topic No. 825, the Company calculates the fair value of its assets and liabilities which qualify as financial instruments under this statement and includes this additional information in the notes to consolidated financial statements when the fair value is different than the carrying value of these financial instruments.  The estimated fair values of accounts receivable, accounts payable and other current assets and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying amounts due to the relatively short maturity of these instruments.  The carrying value of long-term debt approximates market value due to the use of market interest rates.  

n)  New Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-11, “Income Taxes – Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward or Tax Credit Carryforward Exists”. The objective in this update covers FASB ASC Topic 740 and is to eliminate the diversity in presentation of unrecognized tax benefits when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. The amendments in this update will be effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of ASU 2013-11 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In February 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-04, “Liabilities – Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for Which the Total Amount of the Obligations Is Fixed at the Reporting Date”. The amendments in this update cover a wide range of topics in the ASC. These amendments provide guidance for joint and several liability arrangements for amounts fixed at the reporting date. The amendments in this update will be effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of ASU 2013-04 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

o)  Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the comparative consolidated financial statements to conform to the current period’s presentation.

3.     RESTRICTED CASH

Collateral

Certificates of deposit have been posted as collateral supporting a reclamation bond guaranteeing remediation of our oil and gas properties in Texas.  As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the balance of the certificates of deposit totaled $78,560 and $78,450 respectively.

2010 Drilling Program

During the last quarter of 2010, the Company executed participation and operating agreements with various independent oil and gas companies regarding the drilling of various wells.  Funds received from these companies are restricted to the drilling programs and are considered released when they are spent in accordance with the agreements.  Since inception, total funds of $2,462,492 were received on this program, $2,374,844 was spent on drilling activities, and $58,213 was reclassified to promote income leaving a balance of $29,435. During the quarter ended March 31, 2013, the remaining balance was either refunded to the original investors or applied against investor joint interest billing receivable balances, as applicable, to close out the 2010 restricted cash and drilling program leaving a zero balance as of December 31, 2013. There has been no additional activity in this program since that date.

2011 Drilling Program

During the last quarter of 2011, the Company executed joint operating agreements with various independent oil and gas companies regarding the drilling of various wells.  Funds received from these companies are restricted to the drilling programs and are considered released when they are spent in accordance with the agreements.  As of December 31, 2012, funds of $3,427,936 were received on this program and $3,430,183 was spent on drilling activities, and $13,714 was reclassified to promote income leaving a shortage of $15,961 which was reclassified to operating cash and included in the joint interest billing receivable at December 31, 2012. During 2013, additional funds of $2,257,314 were received on this program; $1,392,458 that the Company owed to these companies was applied to the programs during 2013, and $3,546,861 was spent on drilling activities. In addition, individual investor shortages at December 31, 2013 of $3,609 were reclassified to their joint interest billing receivables, leaving a balance of $90,559 in restricted cash and drilling prepayments at December 31, 2013.

Teton Renewal Note

On June 1, 2010, a Promissory (Teton Renewal Note) note was executed to renew and extend the original note payable (Teton Note) due May 21, 2010 to a maturity date of June 1, 2011.  The renewal note’s principal balance of $6,987,646 is the total of the outstanding principal of $5,952,303 and accrued and unpaid interest of $1,035,343 on the original note that was added to the note.  Under the original note payable, Teton was granted the right to convert the $5,792,957 of the outstanding note payable balance plus accrued interest into shares of the Company’s common stock at a fixed conversion price of $1.20 per share. A fixed conversion price of $1.60 was agreed upon for conversion of the additional funds, totaling $1,194,689 plus accrued interest, of the outstanding note payable balance.  Teton has the right, but not the obligation to convert all or a portion of the indebtedness at any time after May 1, 2008, unless the debt is repaid before such date.  This option will continue in existence as long as any balance remains outstanding on the note.  Substantially all of the Company’s assets are pledged to secure the repayment of the Teton Renewal Note.

On April 1, 2011, an amendment was executed which extended the maturity date of the note from June 1, 2011 to June 1, 2013 at which time all outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest of the note will be due.  The amendment also added an event of default whereby Teton may declare default on the note if the Company does not raise funds during or as a result of their engagement with a placement agent whom they initially engaged on March 25, 2011.  No default was declared on this note prior to its subsequent amendment below.

On June 23, 2011, another amendment was executed which extended the maturity date of the note from June 1, 2013 to June 1, 2015, at which time all outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest of the note will be due.  The event of default section remained the same as in the third amendment.

Teton Promissory Note

The Teton Promissory note was amended effective January 1, 2010 to eliminate the requirement of interest payments.  A second amendment was executed which increased the available balance to $1,500,000 effective March 2, 2010.  Effective July 1, 2010, a third amendment to the Teton Promissory was executed to continue the elimination of the interest payments and to extend the maturity date of the note to January 2, 2011. Effective January 2, 2011, a fourth amendment was executed to extend the maturity date of the note to April 2, 2011 at which time all outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest would be due.

On April 2, 2011, a fifth amendment was executed which eliminated the current interest payment and extended the maturity of the note from to June 1, 2013 at which time all outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest of the note will be due.  The amendment also added an event of default whereby Teton may declare default on the note if the Company does not raise funds during or as a result of their engagement with a placement agent whom they initially engaged on March 25, 2011. In addition, the amendment granted Teton the right, to convert the outstanding balance on the Promissory note into shares of PERC’s common stock at a fixed conversion price of $0.60 per share.

On June 23, 2011, a sixth amendment was executed which extended the maturity date of the note to June 1, 2015, at which time all outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest of the note will be due.  The event of default section and conversion of debt to equity section remained the same as in the fifth amendment.

8. ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS

Pursuant to FASB ASC Topic No. 410, Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations, the Company has recognized the fair value of its asset retirement obligations related to the plugging, abandonment, and remediation of oil and gas producing properties.  The present value of the estimated asset retirement costs has been capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the related long-lived assets, which approximated $503,253 and $491,338 at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

The liability has been accreted to its present value as of the end of each year.  The Company evaluated 22 wells, and has determined a range of abandonment dates through June 2027.

The following represents a reconciliation of the asset retirement obligations for the years ended December 31:

10.  WARRANTS OUTSTANDING

In December 2007, the Company issued 8,375,784 warrants to purchase 4,187,901 shares of common stock exercisable until December 31, 2012 in connection with a securities placement agreement.  Also in December 2007 and January 2008, the Company issued warrants to placement agents to purchase 847,465 shares of common stock as part of a securities purchase offering.  The warrants had an exercise price of $1.60 per share and could also be exercised on a cashless basis for a reduced number of shares.

The 2007 Warrant Agreement contained anti-dilution protection rights (“ratchet provision”) which required an adjustment to the exercise price of the warrants and a proportional adjustment to the number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants in the event the Company issues common stock, stock options, or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock, at a price per share lower than such exercise price.

During 2011, the Company issued common shares at a price per share lower than the current exercise price, which triggered the ratchet provision of the 2007 Warrants.  The effect of the anti-dilution provision resulted in an adjustment to the number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants.

Warrants Modified

During 2011, the Company offered holders of its 2007 Warrants an option to consider modification of the warrant agreements. The terms of the modification offer would: (1) waive all prior registration rights penalties, (2) remove the cashless exercise feature, (3) change the exercise price from $0.40 to $0.50, (4) extend the exercise term of the warrants by two years, and (5) delete the full-ratchet provisions.  The removal of the cashless exercise feature effectively made the Company liable for a potential registration rights penalty effective sixty days after the agreements were signed.  In March 2012, the Company offered the holders who had signed the 2011 modification agreement two rescission options which would correct the registration rights penalty liability.  Rescission Option A reverted the warrant back to its original 2007 terms with the original expiration date of December 31, 2012. Rescission Option B corrected the cashless exercise feature but retained all other modifications as noted above.  See Note 17, Commitments and Contingencies, for further explanation of the registration rights penalty.  The deletion of the full-ratchet provision resulted in a reclassification of the derivative liability on the signed agreements to additional paid-in capital.  See Note 12, Derivative Warrant Liability, for further explanation.

After the trigger of the ratchet provision, the modification of the 2007 warrants described above and subsequent cashless exercises of the 2007 warrants during 2011 there were 24,397,812 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants with an exercise price of $0.40 remaining as of January 1, 2012.
 
During the first quarter of 2012, additional 2007 Warrant agreements representing 1,760,000 shares were modified under the terms above and resulted in warrant modification expense of $260,554, which was calculated as the difference in the fair value of the warrants immediately before and immediately after the modification using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

Each unit consisted of two shares of common stock and a warrant to purchase one share of common stock with an exercise price of $0.70 per share, exercisable for a period of five years from the date of issuance. On December 30, 2013, the Company sold an additional 55,555 of the same units, resulting in cash proceeds of $50,000.

PEGASI ENERGY RESOURCES CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2013 AND 2012

Stock issued on cash/cashless basis:

During 2013, the Company issued 1,010,198 shares of common stock to an investor holding modified 2007 Warrants who exercised 1,000,000 warrants on a cashless basis.  The Company also issued 8,000 shares of common stock for $4,800 to an investor holding 2011 Warrants who exercised 8,000 warrants on the cash basis. See Note 10 for additional details.

During 2012, the Company issued 1,193,807 shares of common stock to investors and placement agencies holding 2007 Warrants who exercised their warrants on a cashless basis.  See Note 10 for additional details.

Stock issued for services:

On August 22, 2013, the Company issued 50,000 shares of common stock to a consultant valued at $35,500. These shares were valued using the closing market price on the date of the grant.  This expense has been recorded as general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations.

On February 16, 2012, the Company issued 50,000 shares of common stock to consultants valued at $26,500.  On May 22, 2012, the Company issued 600,000 shares of common stock to consultants valued at $408,000.  On October 11, 2012, the Company issued 650,000 shares of common stock to consultants valued at $461,000. These shares were valued using the closing market price on the date of each grant.  These expenses have been recorded as general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations.

12.  DERIVATIVE WARRANT LIABILITY
 
Under FASB ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, the fair value of certain of our warrants is recorded as a derivative liability.  Each reporting period, the derivative liability related to these warrants is fair valued with the non-cash gain or loss recorded in the period as Other Income/Expense.  Since the exercise price of the warrants can be potentially decreased and the number of shares to settle the warrants increased each time a trigger event occurs that results in a new adjusted exercise price below the adjusted exercise price then in effect, there could be a potentially infinite number of shares required to settle the warrant agreement.  However, the Company has the capability of limiting the occurrence of such events.
 
During 2012, various investors and placement agents exercised 642,892 of the 2007 Warrants representing 2,451,568 shares on a cashless basis.  This reduced the derivative liability by $1,128,828 and increased additional paid-in capital by the same amount.

During 2012, pursuant to the warrant modification agreement discussed in Note 10, the Company modified additional 2007 Warrant agreements representing 1,960,000 shares to eliminate the ratchet provision contained in the original agreements.  Since these agreements no longer had derivative features as a result of the modification, the amount of derivative warrant liabilities associated with the shares have been reclassified from derivative warrant liabilities to additional paid-in capital. The amount reclassified due to this modification was $731,524.

In December 2012, the remaining 1,263,856 of the 2007 Warrants representing 3,056,864 shares of common stock expired pursuant to the terms of the original agreement.

As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had no derivate warrant liabilities. The Company recognized a non-cash gain of $-0- and a non-cash gain of $88,868 during the twelve months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Based on the future reversal of existing taxable temporary differences and future earnings expectations, management believes it is more likely than not that the full amount of the net operating loss carry forwards will not be realized or settled, and accordingly, a valuation allowance has been recorded.  The Company’s net operating loss carry forwards approximate $20,800,000 and will expire in various years commencing in 2023.

In May 2006, the State of Texas enacted legislation for a Texas margin tax which restructured the state business tax by replacing the taxable capital and earned surplus components of the franchise tax with a new “taxable margin” component.  The Company’s margin tax expense is derived by multiplying its taxable margin by 1%.  The taxable margin can be derived, at the Company’s discretion, in any one of three ways.  The Company can choose gross receipts less its cost of goods sold, gross receipts less its salary and wages, or 70% of its gross receipts. The Company has determined the margin tax is an income tax and the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities should be included in the deferred tax calculation.  No material margin tax accrual was necessary at December 31, 2013 or 2012.

The Company files tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and the state of Texas jurisdiction.  The Company is currently subject to a three year statute of limitations by major tax jurisdictions.  The Company follows the provisions of uncertain tax provisions as addressed in FASB ASC 740-10.  The Company recognized no increase in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits.  The Company had no tax positions at December 31, 2013 or December 31, 2012 for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility.  At December 31, 2013, the Company’s tax returns relating to fiscal years ended December 31, 2009 through December 31, 2012 remain open to possible examination by the tax authorities.  The Company recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses.  No such interest or penalties were recognized during the periods presented.  The Company had no accruals for interest and penalties at December 31, 2013 and 2012.

16.   RISK CONCENTRATIONS

We maintain our deposits in one financial institution, which at times may exceed amounts covered by insurance provided by the U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”).  The Company also maintains a sweep investment account which covers all of our bank accounts in order to reduce fees and earn maximum interest.  The balance in the sweep investment account is invested daily in federal obligations that are not covered by FDIC insurance.  The balance available for investment in the sweep account was approximately $2.7 million at December 31, 2013 and $1.6 million at December 31, 2012.  The Company has not experienced any losses with respect to uninsured balances. During 2013, all balances in U.S. non-interest bearing accounts were insured up to $250,000. During 2012, all balances in U.S. non-interest bearing accounts were fully insured.

Two customers accounted for approximately 49% and 41%, respectively, of the Company’s total sales for the year ended December 31, 2013.  Two customers accounted for approximately 67% and 27% of the Company’s total sales for the year ended December 31, 2012.  Revenues were reported from these customers in the oil and gas and transportation and gathering segments.

Lease operating payments primarily made to a principal operator on its oil and gas producing properties approximated $1,041,000 and $621,000 in 2013 and 2012, respectively.

17. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Other

Occasionally, the Company is involved in various lawsuits and certain governmental proceedings arising in the normal course of business.  In the opinion of management, the outcome of such matters will not have a materially adverse effect on the consolidated results of operations or financial position of the Company.  None of the Company’s directors, officers, or affiliates, owners of record or beneficially of more than five percent of any class of the Company’s voting securities, or security holder is involved in a proceeding adverse to the Company’s business or has a material interest adverse to the business.

Environmental

To date, the Company’s expenditures to comply with environmental or safety regulations have not been significant and are not expected to be significant in the future.  Management monitors these laws and regulations and periodically assesses the propriety of its operational and accounting policies related to environmental issues.  The Company is unable to predict whether its future operations will be materially affected by these laws and regulations.  It is believed that legislation and regulations relating to environmental protection will not materially affect the consolidated results of operations of the Company.

DECEMBER 31, 2013 AND 2012
 
Employment Contracts

In May 2007, the Company entered into employee agreements with its President/Chief Executive Officer and its Executive Vice President for three year terms through May 2012. The contracts provided for an automatic renewal for successive one-year terms unless either party shall, three months prior to last day of employment period, provide written notice that employment period will not be extended.  Under the terms of these agreements, the minimum annual compensation for each officer is $250,000 for the President/CEO and $225,000 for the Executive Vice President.  On October 5, 2012, the Company entered into an employee agreement with its Chief Financial Officer for a three year term with annual compensation of $200,000.

Leases

The Company leased certain office space under a non-cancelable operating lease that expired in 2010.  The lease was not renewed and the office space is now being leased on a month-to-month basis.  In January 2012 the rent was reduced to $1,300 per month.  Lease expense was approximately $15,600 and $15,600 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
 
Contingent Liabilities

In preparing financial statements at any point in time, management is periodically faced with uncertainties, the outcomes of which are not within its control and will not be known for prolonged periods of time. The Company is involved in actions from time to time, which if determined adversely, could have a material negative impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Management, with the assistance of counsel makes estimates, if determinable, of the Company’s probable liabilities and records such amounts in the consolidated financial statements. Such estimates may be the minimum amount of a range of probable loss when no single best estimate is determinable. Disclosure is made, when determinable, of any additional possible amount of loss on these claims, or if such estimate cannot be made, that fact is disclosed.
 
Along with the Company's counsel, management monitors developments related to legal matters and, when appropriate, makes adjustments to record liabilities to reflect current facts and circumstances.  Management has recorded a liability related to its registration rights agreement with investors that provides for the filing of a registration statement for the registration of the shares issued in the offering in December 2007, as well as the shares issuable upon exercise of related warrants.  The Company failed to meet the deadline for the effectiveness of the registration statement and therefore was required to pay liquidated damages of approximately $100,000 on the first day of effectiveness failure, or July 18, 2008.  An additional $100,000 penalty was required to be paid by the Company every thirty days thereafter, prorated for periods totaling less than thirty days, until the effectiveness failure was cured, up to a maximum of 18% of the aggregate purchase price, or approximately $1,800,000.  The Company’s registration became effective on August 21, 2008. 

Pursuant to the 2011 warrant modification agreement discussed in Note 10, the Company modified certain 2007 Warrant Agreements representing 12,506,340 shares to waive all prior registration rights and remove the cashless exercise feature.  The removal of the cashless exercise made the Company liable for a potential registration rights penalty effective sixty days after the agreements were signed.  The removal of the original penalty on the modified warrants and the addition of the penalty incurred due to the modification agreement were recorded in 2011 and did not result in a material change to the registration rights penalty payable at December 31, 2011. In March 2012, the Company offered two rescission options to the holders who had signed the 2011 modification agreement.  Under Option A the warrant reverted back to the original 2007 terms which would add back the original penalty.  Under Option B the effectiveness date for the registration rights penalty was changed by setting a filing deadline.  As of December 31, 2012, Option A rescission agreements representing 40,000 shares had been received which reverted the warrant to the original 2007 terms.  Also, as of December 31, 2012, Option B rescission agreements representing 12,466,340 shares had been received which continued the waiver of the original penalty and changed the effectiveness date of the modification.

As of March 31, 2012 there had been holders of the 2007 Warrant Agreements representing 10,261,672 shares that signed the 2011 warrant modification agreement and were subject to a registration rights penalty effective sixty days after the agreements were signed.  At that date the penalty was determined to be $314,341.  As of June 30, 2012 all of these warrant holders had signed the 2012 warrant modification agreement which changed the effectiveness date of the modification and reversed the penalty calculated in the prior quarter.  The reversal of the penalty resulted in a decrease to the penalty payable during 2012 of $173,486 which was recorded as income in the Other Income (Expense) section of the consolidated statement of operations.

At December 31, 2013, management reevaluated the status of the registration statement and determined an accrual of $40,892 was sufficient to cover any potential payments for liquidated damages.  The damages are reflected as liquidated damages payable of $40,892 and $34,260 in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  The difference of $6,632 was recorded as an expense in the Other Income (Expense) section of the consolidated statement of operations.

18. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On February 27, 2014, the Company completed a private placement transaction, pursuant to which it sold a total of 781,000 at $0.90 per unit to raise gross proceeds of $702,900 before deducting issuance costs of $8,000, resulting in net cash proceeds of $694,900.  Each unit consisted of two shares of common stock and a five-year warrant to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $0.70 per share.

On February 11, 2014, a holder of the modified 2007 Warrants exercised 10,000 warrants to acquire 20,000 shares on a cashless basis, and received 6,380 shares of the Company’s common stock.

On January 30, 2014, pursuant to the 2012 Plan, the Company issued stock options for 7,000,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.79 per share to various executives, selected employees and directors for their contributions to the success of the Company.  All of the options vested immediately upon issuance at January 30, 2014, and are exercisable at any time, in whole or part, until January 30, 2019.  This issuance resulted in stock based compensation of $2,365,106, which was calculated using the fair value of the options at grant date. 

In addition, on January 30, 2014, pursuant to the 2010 Plan, the Company issued stock options for 49,940 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.79 per share to selected employees for their contributions to the success of the Company.  All of the options vested immediately upon issuance at January 30, 2014, and are exercisable at any time, in whole or part, until January 30, 2019.  This issuance resulted in stock based compensation of $16,873, which was calculated using the fair value of the options at grant date.

Reserve Quantity Information

The following table presents the Company’s estimate of its proved oil and gas reserves all of which are located in the United States.  The Company emphasizes that reserve estimates are inherently imprecise and that estimates of reserves related to new discoveries are more imprecise than those for producing oil and gas properties.  Accordingly, the estimates are expected to change as future information becomes available.  The estimates have been prepared with the assistance of an independent petroleum reservoir engineering firm.  The petroleum engineer that determined our reserves also planned and supervised the drilling of wells that the Company drilled in the East Texas project.  His 2013 and 2012 compensation, from the Company, for the planning and supervision of drilling wells was $295,406 and $994,993, respectively.  The petroleum engineer’s compensation for reserve estimation for that same time period was $19,301 and $23,992, respectively.  Oil reserves, which include condensate and natural gas liquids, are stated in barrels and gas reserves are stated in thousands of cubic feet.

Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flow and Changes Therein Relating to Proved Oil and Gas Reserves

The following table, which presents a standardized measure of discounted future cash flows and changes therein relating to proved oil and gas reserves, is presented pursuant to FASB ASC Topic No. 932.  In computing this data, assumptions other than those required by the FASB could produce different results.  Accordingly, the data should not be construed as being representative of the fair market value of the Company’s proved oil and gas reserves.

Future cash inflows were computed by applying existing contract and 12-month average prices of oil and gas relating to the Company’s proved reserves to the estimated year-end quantities of those reserves.  Future price changes were considered only to the extent provided by contractual arrangements in existence at year end.  Future development and production costs were computed by estimating the expenditures to be incurred in developing and producing the proved oil and gas reserves at the end of the year, based on year-end costs.  Future income tax expenses were computed by applying the year-end statutory tax rate, with consideration of future tax rates already legislated, to the future pre-tax net cash flows relating to the Company’s proved oil and gas reserves.  The standardized measure of discounted future cash flows at December 31, 2013 and 2012, which represents the present value of estimated future cash flows using a discount rate of 10% a year, follows:

ITEM 9.  CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.

None.

ITEM 9A.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.

Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

Based on management’s evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as a result of the material weakness described below, as of December 31, 2013, our disclosure controls and procedures are not designed at a reasonable assurance level and are ineffective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  The material weakness, which relates to internal control over financial reporting, that was identified is: 

 
a)  
Due to our small size, we do not have a proper segregation of duties in certain areas of our financial reporting process.  The areas where we have a lack of segregation of duties include cash receipts and disbursements, approval of purchases and approval of accounts payable invoices for payment. This control deficiency, which is pervasive in nature, results in a reasonable possibility that material misstatements of the consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

We are committed to improving our financial organization.  We will look to increase our personnel resources and technical accounting expertise within the accounting function to resolve non-routine or complex accounting matters. In addition, when funds are available, we will take the following action to enhance our internal controls: Hiring additional knowledgeable personnel with technical accounting expertise to further support our current accounting personnel, which management estimates will cost approximately $100,000 per annum.  As our operations are relatively small and we continue to have net cash losses each quarter, we do not anticipate being able to hire additional internal personnel until such time as our operations are profitable on a cash basis or until our operations are large enough to justify the hiring of additional accounting personnel.  We currently engage an outside accounting firm to assist us in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements and anticipate doing so until we have a sufficient number of internal accounting personnel to achieve compliance. As necessary, we will engage consultants in the future in order to ensure proper accounting for our consolidated financial statements.
 
Due to the fact that our internal accounting staff consists solely of a Chief Financial Officer, additional personnel will also ensure the proper segregation of duties and provide more checks and balances within the department. Additional personnel will also provide the cross training needed to support us if personnel turn over issues within the department occur. We believe this will greatly decrease any control and procedure issues we may encounter in the future.

(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

(c) Management’s report on internal control over financial reporting.
 
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2013 for the reason discussed above.

This annual report does not include an attestation report by Whitley Penn LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.  As a smaller reporting company, our management's report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management's report in this annual report.

Family Relationships

Board Committees and Independence
 
We are not required to have any independent members of the Board of Directors. The board of directors has determined that (i) Mr. Neufeld has a relationship which, in the opinion of the board of directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director and each is not an “independent director” as defined in the Marketplace Rules of The NASDAQ Stock Market and (ii) Messrs. Waldron, Gelfand and Moss are independent directors as defined in the Marketplace Rules of The NASDAQ Stock Market.  As we do not have any board committees, the board as a whole carries out the functions of audit, nominating and compensation committees, and such “independent director” determination has been made pursuant to the committee independence standards.

1.  
any bankruptcy petition filed by or against such person or any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time;

2.

3.  
being subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining him from or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities or to be associated with any person practicing in banking or securities activities;

The employment agreements with each of our executive officers were not tied to specific performance goals or company targets because we were a relatively new operating company at the time each executive officer’s agreement was negotiated. Our negotiation of the employment agreements was highly dependent on our cash flow projections and, in fact, both Michael Neufeld and Bill L. Sudderth are currently not receiving any of their agreed-upon salary.  The full salary is being accrued and will be paid at a later date when our cash flow increases.

Employment Contracts and Termination of Employment and Change-In-Control Arrangements

The material terms of each Executive Officer’s services agreement or arrangement is as follows:
 
Michael Neufeld and Bill Sudderth entered into substantially similar employment agreements with us commencing May 1, 2007. They had an initial term of three year and automatically renew for a one-year term and will continue to automatically renew for successive one year terms unless, at least 90 days before the last day of the employment period, a written notice is given stating that the employment period will not be extended.  Mr. Neufeld will be paid an annual salary of $250,000 and Mr. Sudderth will be paid $225,000.  On October 5, 2012, Jonathan Waldron entered into a three year employment agreement with us for an annual salary of $200,000. Each person may be entitled to a bonus at the discretion of the Board of Directors.  Each person may be terminated for cause, which under the terms of the agreements is defined as:
 
·  
The employee having, in our reasonable judgment, committed an act which if prosecuted and resulting in a conviction would constitute a fraud, embezzlement, or any felonious offense (specifically excepting simple misdemeanors not involving acts of dishonesty and all traffic violations);
·  
The employee’s theft, embezzlement, misappropriation of or intentional and malicious infliction of damage to our property or business opportunity;
·  
the employee’s repeated abuse of alcohol, drugs or other substances as determined by an independent medical physician; or
·  
the employee’s engagement in gross dereliction of duties, refusal to perform assigned duties consistent with his position, his knowing and willful breach of any material provision of their agreements continuing after written notice from us or repeated violation of our written policies after written notice.
 
Each of the agreements contains standard non-disclosure and prohibits the employee from competing with us in our territory for a period of two years following the termination of employment for any reason.  For purposes of the employment agreement, the territory consists of all land at any time held under our leases (or our affiliates) for mineral exploration or development and all surrounding land within two miles from any leased land.

ITEM 13.  CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE.

Other than as disclosed below, during the last two fiscal years, there have been no transactions, or proposed transactions, which have materially affected or will materially affect us in which any director, executive officer or beneficial holder of more than 5% of the outstanding common, or any of their respective relatives, spouses, associates or affiliates, has had or will have any direct or material indirect interest. We have no policy regarding entering into transactions with affiliated parties.

Effective January 1, 2007, PERC, entered into a five-year lease agreement with Marion Swamp Fox L.P. providing for the use of office space.  On July 1, 2008 the lease for office space was amended to include additional office space and the lease payments were increased from $750 per month to $4,500 per month for the remaining term.  This lease expired January 1, 2012 and is now on a month to month basis. The total lease payments over the entire term of the lease equal $310,500.  Marion Swamp Fox LP is owned by Messrs. Neufeld, Sudderth.

POI, PERC, TR Rodessa, and 59 Disposal, had each executed a promissory note dated May 21, 2007, payable to Teton, an entity owned by Messrs. Neufeld and Sudderth, each an executive officer of the Company, in the original principal amount of $5,579,847.  The note evidences the combined total of prior working capital loans Teton made to PERC and its subsidiaries over the previous two years.  The note accrued interest at eight percent (8%) per annum. Additional funds totaling $1,095,000 were added to the note during 2009.  On June 1, 2010 a Promissory (Teton Renewable Note) note was executed to renew and extend the original promissory note dated May 21, 2007.  The renewal note’s principal balance of $6,987,646 is the total of the outstanding principal of $5,952,303 and accrued and unpaid interest of $1,035,343 on the original note.  Accrued interest and principal is due on the notes maturity date of June 1, 2015.  Under the terms of a memorandum of understanding dated May 21, 2007, between the Company and Teton, Teton has the right to convert that original amount into shares of common stock at any time after May 21, 2008 at $1.20 per share.  An amendment to the promissory note was executed on March 3, 2009 that gave Teton the right to convert the additional funds into shares of common stock at $1.60 per share. Upon the closing of 59 Disposal in 2012 its share of the note payable was transferred to PERC. The largest aggregate amount of principal outstanding during 2013 was $6,987,646 (See Note 7).  Interest expense on the note during 2013 was $559,008.
 

On October 14, 2009, PERC executed a promissory note payable to Teton that would allow the Company to receive up to $1,000,000.  On March 2, 2010 an amendment to the promissory note was executed that provided additional funds available of $1.5 million.  The note was amended on April 2, 2011, granting Teton the right to convert the outstanding balance on the note including accrued interest into shares of common stock at a fixed conversion price of $0.60 per share.  As of December 31, 2013, PERC had received $1,173,000 related to this note.  The accrued interest and outstanding principal are due on the maturity date of June 1, 2015.  Interest expense on this note during 2013 was $73,308.

In addition, at December 31, 2013 and 2012, we owed TR Energy an amount of $122,566 and $112,502, respectively, in connection with our purchase of a 20% undivided interest in their pipelines and disposal well.  TR Energy is owned by Messrs. Neufeld and Sudderth. 
 
In July 2010, PERC entered into a participation agreement with Energi Drilling 2010A LP (“ED LP”) to raise funds for the drilling of the Norbord #1 and both the Swamp Fox #1 and Swamp Fox #2 wells.  David Moss, a director of Pegasi until his resignation in January 2014, is a managing member and majority owner of Energi Management LLC (“EM”) and EM is the general partner of Energi Drilling 2010A LP.  ED LP is a hedge fund that was established for the sole purpose of investing in oil and gas properties with PERC.  All transactions under the participation agreement for these wells were finalized during 2011 when the drilling was completed on them.

In November 2011, PERC amended the participation agreement with ED LP to include the Haggard B well.  PERC received $290,340 for a 15% working interest through completion on this well.  In February 2012, the participation agreement with ED LP was further amended to include the Morse well.  PERC received $195,397 for a 2.5% working interest on this well.  In October 2012, ED LP signed an agreement with PERC holding ED LP responsible for their liability for all costs in relation to the abandonment of the Swamp Fox wells and giving ED LP a $40,000 credit on their drilling expenses for the Morse well.  In March 2013, PERC issued a $10,000 credit to ED LP in final settlement of their liability on the abandonment costs of the Swamp Fox wells.
 
ITEM 14. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING FEES AND SERVICES.
 
Audit Fees
 
The aggregate fees billed by our auditors, for professional services rendered for the audit of our annual consolidated financial statements during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, and for the reviews of the consolidated financial statements included in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q during the fiscal years, were approximately $92,000 and $86,000, respectively.
 
Audit-Related Fees

Our independent registered public accounting firm did not bill us during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 for audit related services.

Tax Fees

Our independent registered public accounting firm did not bill us during fiscal years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 for tax related services.

All Other Fees

Our independent registered public accounting firm did not bill us during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 for other services.  During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, there were no amounts billed for other services.

The Board of Directors has considered whether the provision of non-audit services is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant's independence.
