Responsibility for Financial Statements

The accompanying financial statements for Sharpe Resources Corporation have been prepared by
management in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied.
The most significant of these accounting principles have been set out in the December 31, 2001
audited financial statements and the September 30, 2002 unaudited financial statements. These
statements are presented on the accrual basis of accounting. Accordingly, a precise determination
of many assets and liabilities is dependant upon future events. Therefore, estimates and
approximations have been made using careful judgement. Recognizing that the Company is
responsible for both the integrity and objectivity of the financial statements, management is satisfied
that these financial statements have been fairly presented.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The management of Sharpe Resources Corporation (the "Corporation") have prepared these consolidated
financial statements in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles. These
statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2001.

The disclosure in these interim financial statements may not conform in all respects to Canadian generally
accepted accounting principles for annual financial statements.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for fair presentation have been
included in these financial statements. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2002
is not indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2002.

These statements follow the same accounting policies and methods as the most recent annual audited
financial statements, except for the following:

Stock Based Compensation

Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted the new recommendations of CICA Handbook Section,
Stock-based Compensation and Other Stock-based Payments. This Section established standards for the
recognition, measurement and disclosure of stock-based compensation and other stock-based payments
made in exchange for goods and services. These new recommendations require that compensation for all
awards made to non-employees and certain awards made to non-employees and certain awards made to
employees be measured and recorded in the financial statements at fair value. The Company has adopted
the Black-Scholes option valuation model for determining the fair value of stock options.

The Company, as permitted by Section 3870, has chosen not to use the fair value method to account for
stock-based employee compensation plans, but to disclose pro forma information for options granted after
January 1, 2002. The Company records no compensation expense when options are issued to employees.
Any consideration paid by employees on the exercise of the options is credited to capital stock.

2. STOCK OPTIONS

At September 30, 2002, the Corporation had the following stock options outstanding:

4. SEGMENTED INFORMATION

The Corporation has one reportable business segment, the exploration for and production of petroleum and
natural gas properties in the United States. All of the Corporation's petroleum and natural gas revenue is from
customers based in the United States.

Substantially all of the Corporation's assets are located in the United States except for small balances held in
Canadian banks. The Corporation's operations in Canada consist of general and administrative expenses
necessary to the maintaining of the Corporation's public company status.

5. INCOME TAXES

Estimated taxable income for the period ended is nil. Based on the level of historical taxable income, it
cannot be reasonably estimated at this time if its more likely than not the Corporation will realize the benefits
from future income tax assets or the amounts owing from future income tax liabilities.

Consequently, the future recovery of loss arising from differences in tax values and accounting values have
been reduced by an equivalent estimated taxable temporary difference valuation allowance.

The estimated taxable temporary difference valuation allowance will be adjusted in the period that it is
determined that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the future tax assets or future tax
liabilities will be realized.

For further information on the Corporation's actual losses for tax purposes, refer to the
December 31, 2001 audited financial statements. The benefit of these losses and the estimated loss
for the period ended have not been recognized in these financial statements.

6. BASIC AND FULLY DILUTED LOSS PER SHARE

The loss per share is computed by dividing the loss for the period by the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during the period. Fully diluted loss per share reflects the maximum possible
dilution from the potential exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants. For both periods presented,
the conversion of warrants and exercise of stock options was not included in the calculation because the
calculation was either anti-dilutive or the market price of the Corporation's shares was less than the exercise
and conversion price of the stock options and warrants.

7. STOCK OPTION COMPENSATION ADJUSTMENT

The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded
options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models
require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected stock price volatility. Because
changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in the opinion
of management, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value
of employee stock options. As a result, pro forma earnings and earnings per share have been presented.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2002, 1,715,000 stock options were issued to directors and
an employee of the Company. For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the following assumptions were used
under the Black-Scholes option pricing model: dividend yield of 0%; expected volatility of 100%; risk-free
interest rate of 4.25% and an expected average life of 4.20 years.

Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 $ (77,634)
Unrecorded stock option compensation adjustment 51,450
Pro forma net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 $ (129,084)
Basic and fully diluted loss per share - Pro-forma $ 0.00

8. GAIN ON SETTLEMENT OF DEBT

Pursuant to the Chapter 11 Plan, agreed unsecured vendor loan claims were paid a 10% cash payment.
The remaining 90% of the claims were settled by the issue of preferred stock certificates of Sharpe Energy,
bearing a quarterly dividend of 4% per annum. The certificates are fully redeemable in 5 years. At the
discretion of the Company, the certificates can be redeemed, all or in part at a discount, based upon the time
of redemption.

As of September 30, 2002, the Company has settled debt with the given discount and incurred a gain
of $149,681.
