General Overview

Since 2004 we have been an exploration stage oil and gas company engaged in the exploration for petroleum and natural gas in the State of Nevada and in the Province of Alberta, Canada. Effective September 2006 we commenced with a natural gas development-drilling program in the White River Dome, Ant Hill Unit located in the Piceance Basin in Colorado. As reported on July 28, 2008 the White River Dome, Ant Hill project in Colorado became our primary focus due to the belief that it represented the combination of good commercial returns while providing a large number of low risk development locations. With the drilling of the Noah Federal #1 well in the first half of 2008 we concluded our exploration program in Nevada and impaired our properties there accordingly. We commenced receiving significant revenues from our White River Dome project during 2008 and as at year-end have moved from an exploration stage company to an operating company.

During 2008 Eden continued with a strategy of growing its natural gas and oil reserves and production by drilling four new wells in the Ant Hill Unit. Net production from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2008 increased to approximately 295,157 Mcfe as compared to approximately 9,495 Mcfe for the year ended December 31, 2007. Total proved reserves increased to 10.11 Bcfe net to Eden’s interest as at December 31, 2008 as compared to total proved reserves of 5.46 Bcfe net to Eden’s interest as at March 31, 2008, however due to the decline in gas and oil prices used in assigning reserve values, the proved undeveloped locations currently are uneconomical to drill and complete. Our gross revenues increased to approximately $2.40 million for the year ended December 31, 2008 as compared to $65,000 for the year ended December 31, 2007, however revenues were lower than forecast at the outset of 2008 due to the decline in commodity prices in the second half of the year combined with production interruptions and delays. Our total number of production wells in the area increased from four to eight wells.

The declines in gas and oil prices together with the ongoing deterioration of general economic conditions has led to a significant write down in the valuation of our Colorado assets and currently has eroded our access to reserve based financing for continued drilling in Colorado. Unless the current economic climate changes dramatically in the months ahead, which is not anticipated, 2009 drilling operations in the Ant Hill Unit have been suspended.

Management is reassessing its future plans in the area as a result of the deterioration of selling prices and field results prior to further decisions. Management is rationalizing corporate costs where possible in an attempt to better align them with future expected reduced revenues, though based on current projections Management anticipates an operating cash shortfall within the next twelve month period. Additional funds to meet obligations and to cover the costs of company operations are required in the near future and Management is attempting to secure funding, though given the recent global economic collapse and the decline in commodity prices there is uncertainty that further funding can be raised. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Management plans to continue to review other potential exploration projects, which may be presented to them from time to time.

Our company, Eden Energy Corp., was incorporated in the State of Nevada on January 29, 1999, under the name E-Com Technologies Corp. On June 16, 2004 we effected a 2 for 1 stock split of our common stock and our preferred stock. On August 6, 2004 we changed our name to Eden Energy Corp. and increased our authorized capital to 100,000,000 shares of common stock having a $0.001 par value and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock having a $0.001 par value.

Due to the implementation of British Columbia Instrument 51-509 on September 30, 2008 by the British Columbia Securities Commission, we have been deemed to be a British Columbia based reporting issuer. As such, we are required to file certain information and documents at www.sedar.com.

Our Current Business

We are primarily focused and engaged in development drilling of the White River Dome, Ant Hill Unit Project in Colorado. We expect to continue to monitor our exploration projects pursuant to our participation agreements with our partners.

White River Dome, Ant Hill Unit Drilling and Development Project – Colorado

The White River Dome, Ant Hill Project is a natural gas development-drilling program located in the Piceance Basin of western Colorado. Effective September 1, 2006, through our wholly owned subsidiary Eden Energy Colorado LLC, we entered into a farm-in agreement with Starlight Oil and Gas LLC and Starlight Corporation under which Eden and Starlight would undertake development drilling on the eastern flank of the White River Dome field located in T2N-R96&97W, Rio Blanco County, Colorado. Under the terms of the agreement, Eden paid Starlight a prospect fee of $900,000, and Starlight was to participate for a 10% working interest and Eden was to have a 75% working interest in the prospective lands. Starlight was to retain a 7.5% gross overriding royalty on the lands.

On August 31, 2007, we entered into an agreement with Starlight Oil & Gas LLC and Starlight Operating Company, Inc. (Starlight) whereby Starlight was to assign to Eden all of its rights, title, and interests in both the Ant Hill Drilling and Development Agreement with EnCana and the related Participation Agreement with Eden.

The terms of the agreement at the time are as follows:

  (i)

Our company shall withdraw its demand for arbitration with prejudice;

     
  (ii)

Our company agrees to make no claims against Starlight Operating Company, Inc. or Starlight Oil & Gas LLC for any obligations with regard to the completion of the existing wells and drilling of any future wells per the terms of the EnCana Drilling & Development Agreement and Starlight/Eden Participation Agreement;

     
  (iii)

Starlight Oil & Gas LLC shall assign to Eden Energy Colorado LLC all of its right, title and interest in and to the Drilling and Development Agreement with EnCana Oil & Gas (U.S.A.), Inc., dated May 1, 2006, as amended;

     
  (iv)

Starlight Oil & Gas LLC shall assign to Eden Energy Colorado all of its right, title and interest in and to the Participation Agreement with our company dated September 1, 2006;

     
  (v)

Starlight Oil & Gas LLC will assign to Eden Energy Colorado all of its right, title and interest in and to its working interests in the Love Federal 17-21 and 17-42 wells and lands earned thereby;

5



  (vi)

The overriding royalty interests created pursuant to the Participation Agreement shall be conveyed as follows:


a. Melange International, LLC 0.5% of 8/8ths
b. Durango Petroleum Corp. 0.5% of 8/8ths
c. Monarch Royalty LLC 0.5% of 8/8ths
d. Timothy E. Macke 0.5% of 8/8ths
e. H.J. Kagie 0.5% of 8/8ths
f. Joseph R. Pope 0.5% of 8/8ths
g. Brian S. Bentley 0.5% of 8/8ths
h. Eden Energy Colorado LLC any remaining override

In the event that the Existing Burdens on any tract are such that when taken together an 80% net revenue interest cannot be retained by our company then the portion of the override being delivered to Timothy E. Macke, H.J. Kagie, Joseph R. Pope and Brian S. Bentley shall be proportionately reduced in order to deliver the 80% net revenue lease. Our company shall continue to make such additional conveyances to the owners of those overriding royalties as may be necessary or convenient to insure the same are accounted for and paid in a timely manner. Royalties will continue to be disbursed directly by EnCana or by the subsequent operator of record for the Ant Hill Unit.

Ant Hill Unit – Colorado

The Ant Hill Unit is a 17,276 acre federal exploratory unit currently operated by EnCana Oil and Gas (USA). Under a Drilling and Development Agreement executed between Starlight (a private Colorado company) and EnCana on May 5, 2006, and which Eden, effective August 31, 2007, became sole participant through Starlight’s assignment as detailed above, Eden agreed to drill a minimum of four wells in areas outside of the current Participating Areas (PA’s). Eden commenced this initial drilling in the fall of 2006. The wells were drilled on 160 acre drilling blocks typically encompassing standard governmental quarter sections. By drilling and completing these wells, the existing federal exploratory unit remains in effect for several more years. Eden carried EnCana for 15% of the total well cost in each new well drilled on 40-acre drill site quarter/quarter section. For each well drilled, Eden earned a 100% interest in a diagonal 40-acre tract, located in the same 160-acre quarter section. EnCana retains its 100% interest in the two remaining offset locations in each 160 acre drilling block.

After the initial four locations were drilled, Eden could elect to develop additional 160-acre drilling blocks on any acreage outside the existing PA’s under the same terms. There are 34 potential 160-acre drilling blocks outside of the existing PA’s that have not been developed, resulting in 68 potential drilling locations on what is effectively 40-acre spacing. There is also the potential to develop the field on 20-acre spacing, which would provide for another 68 drilling locations.

The primary targets are the Cameo Coal and Williams Fork Sandstones of the Cretaceous Mesaverde Group, found at an average depth of 8,100 feet. Cumulative production from the field is in excess of 65 BCF from 157 wells, with current production averaging 11 MMCF/D from 100 active wells. Typical well life in the field is in the range of 20 – 25 years. Eden currently estimates ultimate reserves per well to be approximately 1.30 Bcfe per well, with an initial production rate of approximately 1,000 mcfd. Gas from the Ant Hill unit typically contains about 25% carbon dioxide, which is removed at a local natural gas treatment plant. Drilling and completion costs are estimated to be in the $2,000,000 range per well throughout the field. Operations in the White River Dome Field are largely prohibited in the winter months.

With Starlight as Operator, the first well (Love Federal 17-42) under the agreement spud on September 21, 2006 and took 13 days to drill and set production casing. The second well (Love Federal 17 -21) spud on October 8, 2006 and took 12 days to drill and set production casing. Once both wells were cased the rig was released for the winter. Fracture stimulation commenced on Well 1 October 28, 2006 and Well 2 November 4, 2006.

In December 2006, we announced the tie-in of these first two wells and that they had good sand and coal thicknesses in the order of other proven wells in the field. These first two wells were completed using modern frac techniques designed to increase fracture half lengths from less than 100 feet traditionally to greater than 300 feet. The Love

Federal 17-21 experienced high water production rates, which naturally restricted the flow of gas. The Love Federal 17- 42 was completed in the Cameo coal section only, and despite subsequent scaling treatment procedures, continued to be compromised. Over the subsequent months we reviewed the completion and frac techniques utilized by the Operator and planned for workover operations in attempt to enhance the wells production.

On October 10, 2007, we reported that workover operations on the LF 17-21 well began on October 9, 2007. The plan called for the lowermost perforations of the well to be tested for water production and isolated from the remainder of the Cameo and Williams Fork section, following which the well was placed back on production and the completion rig moved to the LF 17-42. The recompletion program for the LF 17-42 consisted of new perforations and fracture treatments over previously bypassed zones in the Williams Fork as well as re-perforations over zones in the Cameo, which we believed had additional potential. Once completed it was placed back in production.

We also reported spudding well AHU #18 - 23 at an expected 12 days drilling time to reach approximately 8000 feet. Upon completion the rig immediately moved to the AHU #8-12 location and drilling commenced. After drilling to a total depth of approximately 8000 feet, the wells were logged and the rig was released. A completion rig was moved on to fracture stimulate the wells and put them into production. AHU #18 – 23 went into production on January 8, 2008 and AHU #8 - 12 went into production on February 4, 2008.

On December 31, 2007 we reported on the progress of these wells and subsequently on March 31, 2008 we reported as follows:

AHU 18-23. Completion operations on the 18-23 well were finalized in late December and the well was tied in to sales on January 8, 2008. Peak initial production on this well was 796 mcfd on January 10, 2008 and as of March 3, 2008 the well was producing at approximately 415 mcfd.

AHU 8-12. Completion operations on the 8-12 well were finalized in February and the well was tied into sales on February 4, 2008. Peak stabilized initial production was 1,785 mcfd on February 20, 2008 and as of March 3, 2008 the well was producing at approximately 1,750 mcfd.

LF 17-21. Recompletion operations did not appear to have been successful on this well, possibly due to damage caused during the initial completion operations. As of March 3, 2008 the well was producing 46 mcfd.

LF 17-42. The 17-42 well was tied in to sales on December 30, 2007 and produced at a peak daily rate of 1,772 mcfd on January 1, 2008. As of March 3, 2008 the well was producing at approximately 496 mcfd. The 17-42 was the second of Eden’s wells to be recompleted after initial completion results were deemed less than satisfactory.

On April 28, 2008 we reported that our first four White River Dome wells were tied-in and producing approximately 1900 mcfd net to Eden’s working interest. We also reported the commissioning of an independent reserve report and that the Engineering firm was awaiting pricing information from the unit operator in order to finalize.

On May 16, 2008 we reported receipt of the independent reserve report from MHA Petroleum Consultants Inc., of Golden, Colorado. The report assigned total proved reserves of 5.46 Bcfe net to Eden’s interest with a PV10 value of $14.28 million, using first quarter-end actual received gas and oil prices as mandated by the SEC. Net to Eden, the report assigned proved developed producing (PDP) reserves of 1.99 Bcfe with a PV10 value of $8.4 million and proved undeveloped (PUD) reserves of 3.47 Bcfe with a PV10 value of $5.88 million.

On July 28, 2008 we reported the White River Dome project had become the Company’s primary focus due to the belief it represented the combination of good commercial returns while providing a large number of low risk development locations. We also reported we were drilling 4 new wells in the White River Dome field during the 2008 drilling season.

On November 5, 2008 we reported two of the 4 new wells were tied-in to sales and flowing through restricted chokes and that the two remaining wells were expected to be tied-in by mid to late November. As of November 3,

7


2008 we were producing approximately 2400 mcfd gross from six of eight White River Dome wells. We reported on the progress of the new wells as follows:

AHU 21-22. The 21-22 well was drilled to a total depth of 7585 feet. A total gross interval of 923 feet of gas-bearing sand and coal was fracture stimulated in four stages. The well began producing on October 26, 2008 at an initial rate of 1310 mcfd and 380 bwpd on a 24/64’s choke with a flowing tubing pressure of 950 psi and flowing casing pressure of 1650 psi.

AHU 7-43. The 7-43 well was drilled to a total depth of 7611 feet and a total gross interval of 640 feet of gas-bearing sand and coal was fracture stimulated in two stages. The well was put on production on October 31, 2008 at an initial rate of 1390 mcfd and 625 bwpd on a 24/64’s choke with a flowing tubing pressure of 750 psi and flowing casing pressure of 1500 psi.

AHU 28-44. The 28-44 was drilled to a total depth of 7285 feet and a total gross interval of 977 feet of gas- bearing sand and coal was fracture stimulated in four stages. On October 27, 2008, after flowing back 100% of its frac fluid, the well was flowing 308 mcfd and 512 bwpd on a 24/64’s choke with a flowing tubing pressure of 420 psi and flowing casing pressure of 1550 psi. The well was shut in waiting for completion of a pipeline. At the time we expected to have the pipeline completed and the well on production by the middle of November 2008.

AHU 13-43. The 13-43 well was drilled to a total depth of 6885 feet and a total gross interval of 632 feet of gas-bearing sand and coal was fracture stimulated in three stages. As of November 3, 2008 the well was currently flowing back at 638 mcfd and 450 barrels per day of frac fluid on an 18/64’s choke with a flowing tubing pressure of 850 psi and flowing casing pressure of 1775 psi. The well was shut in waiting for completion of a pipeline. At the time we expected to have the pipeline completed and the well on production by the end of November 2008.

On January 30, 2009 we reported that all of the new wells had been tied in to the sales line and that we were conducting additional completion operations to get all of the wells flowing. We reported that as of January 28, 2009 we were producing approximately 1,240 mcfd gross from our White River Dome wells. We also reported the costs and time to drill and complete the wells was in line with our original estimates, while the costs and time to install pipeline and tie-in to sales were above original estimates and we were in discussions with suppliers, subcontractors, and our operating partner to resolve these outstanding issues and their related costs. We reported that until these issues were resolved, we were not in a position to advance funds to settle all 2008 drilling program related accounts or claims.

On February 16, 2009 we received an independent reserve report from MHA Petroleum Consultants Inc., of Golden, Colorado, which was effective January 1, 2009. The report assigned total proved reserves of 10.11 Bcfe net to Eden’s interest, however due to the decline in gas and oil prices used in assigning reserve values, the proved undeveloped locations (8 PUD’s) currently are uneconomical to drill and complete. Using year-end actual received gas and oil prices as mandated by the SEC, net to Eden, the report assigned our eight proved developed producing wells reserves of 2.85 Bcfe with a PV10 value of $4.74 million.

On February 25, 2009 the AHU 13-43 produced at 991 mcfd and we reached daily gross production of 2,105 mcfd from 5 of 8 wells.

On March 12 2009 we reported we had received notice of a lien being placed against the property by one of the suppliers relating to the pipeline installation. The lien filed is in the amount of $692,118, which we dispute as this amount; does not include credits and discounts previously agreed to of approximately $310,000 relating to incorrect billing processes and procedures performed by the supplier, does not reflect payments made by the Company, and includes certain other disputed amounts. Eden calculates the final amount due the supplier to be approximately $286,000. We are working with our operating partner to resolve unpaid invoices and remove the lien, but until such time as the issue with the operating partner is resolved, the outcome is uncertain and the Company may be contingently liable for additional amounts not recorded at year end. The loss, if any, resulting from the outcome of the above will be recorded in the period when such determination or settlements are made.

8


To the date of filing this report and despite ongoing discussions, no resolution whereby we are to be reimbursed for the costs we have incurred to build the pipeline has been reached. We incurred total costs of approximately $1,635,920 to construct the pipeline, which we expected to be reimbursed for from our operating partner. Approximately $767,895 remains outstanding to us. As a result there are a number of suppliers to our 2008 White River Dome well and pipeline program that still remain unpaid. Eden and our operating partner are aware these unpaid suppliers could file notice of lien against the recently drilled White River Dome property.

Net production from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2008 increased to approximately 295,157 Mcfe as compared to approximately 9,495 Mcfe for the year ended December 31, 2007. Our gross revenues increased to approximately $2.40 million for the year ended December 31, 2008 as compared to $65,000 for the year ended December 31, 2007, however revenues were lower than forecast at the outset of 2008 due to the decline in commodity prices in the second half of the year combined with production interruptions and delays. Our total number of production wells in the area increased from four to eight wells. Due to the decline in natural gas and oil selling prices throughout 2008 and its impact on our reserve report, we are reporting an impairment of $15,519,827 for the year ending December 31, 2008 relating to this property.

The ongoing deterioration of general economic conditions has led to the significant write down in the valuation of our assets and currently has eroded our access to reserve based financing for continued drilling in Colorado. Unless the current economic climate changes dramatically in the months ahead, which is not anticipated, 2009 drilling operations in the Ant Hill Unit have been suspended. Suspending continuous drilling operations for 2009 will, once the 2009 drilling season matures, cause us to become noncompliant with our Drilling and Development Agreement with EnCana. We believe EnCana is fully aware of the negative valuations of potential new wells using short term depressed oil and gas prices, but we have no assurances at the moment that a deferral or suspension of drilling activities through 2009 will be agreed to. In the event EnCana does not agree to a deferral or suspension for 2009 continuous drilling, our current Drilling and Development Agreement will terminate, and we will retain our interests in the current wells and properties we have earned to date. Federal Unit obligations for drilling for 2009, which require a 2 well minimum, have been met with our 2008-drilling program. Management is reassessing its future plans in the area as a result of the deterioration of selling prices and field results prior to further decisions.

Noah Project - Nevada

On August 5, 2004, by way of an Assignment Agreement, we acquired Fort Scott Energy Corp.’s (“Fort Scott”) interest in a Participation Agreement dated April 26, 2004 with Cedar Strat Corporation (“Cedar Strat”). The Fort Scott/Cedar Strat Participation Agreement deals with the acquisition and development of petroleum and natural gas rights and leases in an area of mutual interest in eastern Nevada. We named this area of approximately 211,000 gross acres, the Noah Project.

The Assignment Agreement provides for Fort Scott to retain a 2% over-riding royalty in the area of mutual interest and the following considerations:

  (i)

the issuance to Fort Scott of 500,000 shares of our common stock;

     
  (ii)

the issuance to Fort Scott of 7% interest bearing Promissory Note and Convertible Debenture ($0.25 conversion rate) Units in the principal amount of $500,000. Each Unit entitled Fort Scott to the issuance of one common share in our capital stock and one half of one warrant, with each whole warrant entitling Fort Scott to acquire one additional common share at $0.50 per share; and

     
  (iii)

for each 10 million barrels of proven reserves on the lands underlying the leases, we will issue to Fort Scott 1,000,000 shares of common stock, up to a maximum of 10,000,000 shares of common stock.

The debenture was converted and the associated warrants were exercised for cash in fiscal 2005. Fort Scott retains its 2% over-riding royalty interest on the lands underlying the leases, such that upon the fulfillment of the obligations set out in the Participation Agreement, we will earn an 80.5% net revenue interest in the lands underlying the leases, and Cedar Strat will be vested with a 5% over-riding royalty interest. Cedar Strat also retains a 5% back-in working interest which may be adjusted upwards to as much as a 12.5% back-in working interest should we elect not to proceed with the drilling election pursuant to the terms of the Participation Agreement.

9


Exploration conducted since acquiring Fort Scott’s interest includes the acquisition of proprietary and licensed gravity and magnetic data, processing and interpreting 39 miles of proprietary and other trade licensed seismic data, and the integration of all sub-surface and surface geology, gravity, magnetic, and seismic data.

On March 1, 2007, we entered into a Letter Agreement with Cedar Strat whereby the future development plan of the Noah project was confirmed and approximately 21,000 acres of peripheral leases were transferred to Cedar Strat.

Effective March 29, 2007, we entered into an Amendment to the Participation Agreement with Cedar Strat for this prospect. Under the terms of the Amendment, our acreage block at Noah has been divided into four Prospect Areas with each Prospect Area encompassing approximately 50,000 acres of leases. The Prospect Areas are designated Prospect Area 1 to 4 sequentially from north to south. The Amendment calls for the Prospect Areas to be worked sequentially from North to South by us either, 1) electing to drill an initial test well within the designated Prospect Area, 2) electing to drill a subsequent well or wells within the designated Prospect Area or 3) electing to shoot a seismic program of no less than twenty-five (25) linear miles in the next sequential untested Prospect Area. As agreed to we will initiate our sequential work by drilling an Initial Test Well in Prospect Area 1 to a depth of approximately 7,000 to 9,000 feet by no later than November 30, 2008.

Under the terms of the Amendment, drilling or seismic operations shall begin within each specified Prospect Area no later than 12 months following the required election date (as follows) unless extended by both parties acting reasonably. We shall have ninety (90) days from release of either the drilling rig or completion rig, whichever is later, of the Initial Test Well in the designated Prospect Area, to elect to either drill a Subsequent Well(s) in the Prospect Area or shoot a Seismic Program in the next untested Prospect Area. We shall have 180 days from the release of the seismic crew to elect to drill an Initial Test Well in the newly designated Prospect Area or elect to shoot a Seismic Program in the next untested Prospect Area.

Under the terms of the Amendment if we drill an Initial Test Well or Subsequent Well(s) to the base of the sub-thrust Devonian Formation or 17,000 feet, whichever is shallower, we will retain all rights, title and interest in all leases and lands within that particular Prospect Area. In each Prospect Area that we drill an Initial Test Well or Subsequent Well(s) to a depth shallower than the base of the sub-thrust Devonian or 17,000 feet, we shall retain all rights, title and interest in all leases and lands within the Prospect Area, to a depth of 1,000 feet below the base of the deepest Formation penetrated. If in this case we elect not to drill a Subsequent Well then we will offer all deeper rights in the leases within the Prospect Area to Cedar Strat and Cedar Strat shall have 90 days from receipt of such notice in which to exercise this option. Failure of Cedar Strat to exercise its option within such 90 day period shall be deemed as a waiver of its option right.

Should we elect not to drill an Initial Test Well in Prospect Areas 2, 3, or 4 we shall, at Cedar Strat’s option, relinquish and assign to Cedar Strat, all right, title and interest in all leases and lands subject to the Participation Agreement lying within the specific Prospect Area, within 90 days after receiving written notice from Cedar Strat of its intent to exercise its option. Cedar Strat’s right to exercise its option shall also be for a 90 day period after receiving written notice from us of our election not to drill the Prospect Area. Failure of Cedar Strat to exercise its option within such 90 day period shall be deemed as a waiver of its option right.

Rental payments on the initial acreage and any subsequently acquired acreage will be maintained by us during this development period, except on any acreage which Cedar Strat may elect to acquire pursuant to the exercise of its options.

Effective March 29, 2007, we entered into a Farm Out Agreement with Midland Texas based Fasken Nevada - 1, LLC and Fasken Oil and Ranch LP, privately held companies (the “Partner”) for the drilling of the Noah prospect as defined in the Amendment to the Participation Agreement with Cedar Strat. The Partner will pay 2/3rds of the cost to drill, test and complete the first well in the first Prospect Block and Eden will pay 1/3rd. The Partner acts as operator. Upon drilling and completing the first well in Prospect Area 1 the Partner will be assigned a 50% interest in Eden’s leases in Prospect Area 1 as provided for in the Amendment to the Participation Agreement with Cedar Strat.

Provided the Partner has met its obligations in Prospect Area 1, it shall have the option to proceed to develop Prospect Area 2. If it elects to proceed with developing Prospect Area 2, the Partner shall pay a prospect recovery

10


fee of $2,000,000 to Eden for costs incurred on Prospect Area 1 and shall have the right to earn a 50% interest in the Prospect Area by paying 2/3rds of any seismic programs and the drilling and completing to casing point of a second well. Thereafter, the Partner shall continue to have the right to earn in subsequent Prospect Areas under the same terms but with no further prospect recovery fees.

The first well under the Agreement, the Noah Federal #1 was staked and was expected to be drilled to a total depth of between 7,000 and 9,000 feet, for an estimated cost of $4,000,000 of which we would pay 1/3rd. On July 9, 2007, we reported the Partner received approval on the required Federal and State permits to drill the well. On July 10, 2007, the Partner advised us that they received approval from the BLM in Ely for the gravel pit(s) for commencement of road and location construction. On October 4, 2007, we reported that on the advice of our Partner/operator due to the onset of winter conditions, the spudding of the Noah Federal No. 1 well was rescheduled to Spring 2008.

On March 4, 2008, we reported our joint venture partner in the Noah Prospect in White Pine County, Nevada, advised the Company that they had signed a drilling agreement with Badger Drilling Company’s Rig No. 1 based out of Roosevelt, Utah. On March 26, 2008 we reported the spudding of the Noah Federal #1 well. On April 28, 2008 we reported the Noah Federal #1 well had been plugged and abandoned after reaching a total depth of 7,080 feet. The well encountered its targeted formation, the sub-thrust Devonian Simonson dolomite, at a depth of 5,058 feet. Based on log analysis and the lack of oil or gas shows while drilling, the well did not warrant further testing.

On July 28, 2008 we reported our joint venture partner advised us they have elected not to pursue further exploration on additional Prospect area lands beyond the earned Prospect Area 1. We reported also that after incorporating the results of the Noah well into our overall geological model of the area, we have decided not to pursue additional drilling leads and will not be renewing leases we hold in the project area. Accordingly, we have recognized total impairment of $8,398,382 related to the Noah project during the year ended December 31, 2008.

We believe that the Noah #1 well adequately tested our best seismic feature, and the results of the well did not warrant further drilling on the prospect or the expense of maintaining the leases. Therefore and pursuant to the Participation Agreement with Cedar Strat and upon their instruction, on October 27, 2008 we assigned all of our rights, title, and interest in all of the approximate 150,000 acres of leases in Prospect Areas 2 through 4 of the Noah Prospect to Diamond Land, LLC, a Utah based Company. Pursuant to the Participation Agreement, on November 3, 2008 we assigned the appropriate overriding royalties of Prospect Area 1 to Cedar Strat and Fort Scott. On December 11, 2008 we assigned our interests in approximately 39,732 acres of Prospect Area 1 to our drilling Partner in Prospect Area 1. We retained a 0.5% overriding royalty interest in the approximate 9,808 acres of the drill site lease only of Prospect Area 1, essentially concluding our participation and interest in the Noah project. We are not carrying any value for this retained override as the fair value is not readily determineable.

Due to Diamond Land, LLC and/or Cedar Strat Corporation’s failure to file the aforementioned assignments within the BLM mandated filing period, on February 23, 2009 we agreed by Letter Agreement with Cedar Strat Corporation to extend the assignment period to March 31, 2009 whereby Cedar Strat Corporation will advise us which leases and to which entity Eden should make assignment of the lands in Prospect Area 2 through 4 of the Noah prospect.

Cherry Creek Project - Nevada

On October 21, 2005, we entered into a separate Letter Agreement with Cedar Strat Corporation for the exploration and development of a new project called Cherry Creek. This agreement entitles our company or our Nevada subsidiary, Southern Frontier Explorations Ltd., to acquire petroleum and natural gas rights and leases in an area of mutual interest (AMI) in northeastern Nevada.

Under the terms and conditions of this Letter Agreement, Cedar Strat will manage certain exploration programs within the AMI designed to bring the prospect to a drillable status. Cedar Strat has provided us with copies of the exploration data to which Eden has paid Cedar Strat $216,000. Cedar Strat’s fieldwork has been completed.

11


Subject to election to drill, we must commence drilling within the AMI within 24 months of receipt by us of all of the exploration data from Cedar Strat, and thereafter must drill at least one development well per year during the term of the agreement.

Effective January 24, 2006, we entered into a formal Joint Participation Agreement with Cedar Strat Corporation. Cedar Strat Corporation provided their acceptance to the formal Joint Participation Agreement on February 16, 2006. Pursuant to the Joint Participation Agreement we agreed to participate in Cedar Strat’s play included within the geographical boundaries of a confidential area, and pay Cedar Strat $750,000 as a prospect fee. We also agreed to accept responsibility for acquiring and funding BLM leases and private fee leases, if applicable, in order to facilitate the exploration efforts. We assumed the obligation to pay the annual rental on such leases.

On March 14, 2006, we acquired at auction approximately 76,459 gross acres of oil and gas lease lands in northeastern Nevada for this project. Subsequent to March 14, 2006, adjustments reduced the number of acres to approximately 69,982 gross acres. On September 30, 2006, we gave notice to surrender the low priority leases to Cedar Strat and retain approximately 18,500 gross acres of premium prospective leases. On December 12, 2006 we acquired approximately 2,500 additional gross acres of oil and gas leases at auction. Subsequent to December 12, 2006 we acquired additional leases from the BLM, some of which were not completed on by a buyer at a previous land sale. On March 1, 2007 we entered into a Letter Agreement with Cedar Strat whereby approximately 2,500 acres of peripheral Cherry Creek acreage were transferred to Cedar Strat leaving us with approximately 26,000 gross acres of oil and gas leases at Cherry Creek.

Pursuant to the Joint Participation Agreement with Cedar Strat, election and subsequent commencement of a drilling program was to occur within 24 months of our assessing the viability of the prospect, unless said assessment was delayed due to factors beyond our control, in which case the election was to be extended for such period of time as the parties may agree, acting reasonably. In recognizing that the drilling of the Noah Federal #1 well was rescheduled for Spring 2008, and knowing that evaluation of these results was required in order to assess the viability of the prospect, we have been negotiating with Cedar Strat for an extension prior to proceeding further with exploration plans.

On July 28, 2008, subsequent to the Noah well drilling and after a careful review of the technical aspects of the project, we reported we have decided not to pursue further activities and will not be renewing leases we hold in the project area. Accordingly, we have recognized total impairment of $876,195 related to the Cherry Creek project during the year ended December 31, 2008.

Pursuant to the Participation Agreement with Cedar Strat on October 7, 2008 we assigned our interest in all of the approximate 26,000 acres of leases in the Cherry Creek prospect to Cedar Strat Corporation thereby concluding our participation and interest in the project.

Due to Cedar Strat Corporation’s failure to file the aforementioned assignments within the BLM mandated filing period, on February 23, 2009 we agreed by Letter Agreement with Cedar Strat Corporation to extend the assignment period to March 31, 2009 whereby Cedar Strat Corporation will advise us which leases and to which entity Eden should make assignment of the lands in the Cherry Creek prospect.

Chinchaga Project – Alberta

On March 13, 2006, through our wholly owned subsidiary, Eden Energy (North) Ltd., we entered into a farm-in arrangement with Suncor Energy Inc. (“Suncor”) of Calgary, Alberta. The arrangement provided for Eden to participate, with a 50% working interest and with other minor partners, in the cost to drill an exploratory well on approximately 18,000 gross acres of leases owned by Suncor while retaining options to drill a second well to earn additional acreage. The exploration target was a dolomitized Slave Point reef at a depth of approximately 8,900 feet in Northwestern Alberta. Suncor retains a 12.5% gross overriding royalty on the lands, which are known as the Chinchaga area.

By drilling the first well, which was plugged and abandoned on January 22, 2007, Eden earned a 50% working interest in approximately 7,000 gross acres. We and our partners elected not to drill the Option Well or acquire the

12


Block 1 – Option Lands nor purchase the additional Block 2 Option Lands that were available. The joint venture partners acquired an additional 1,279 gross acres at a February 8, 2007 land sale on which Eden holds a 55.56% working interest due to one partner declining to participate in the land acquisition. Currently, Eden and its partners are evaluating the Farmout Lands earned from the first well and the other acquired lands in Chinchaga before making any further exploration decisions.

On February 14, 2007, Eden entered into a separate farm-in arrangement with Suncor. Under the terms of this arrangement Eden participated with a 10% working interest, in the drilling of an exploratory well and earned a 10% working interest in approximately 9,600 gross acres. The exploration target was a dolomitized Slave Point reef at a depth of approximately 8,400 feet in northwestern Alberta, also known as Chinchaga. Suncor retains a 12.5% gross overriding royalty on these lands. Eden acquired a 10% interest in an additional 5,120 gross acres of offsetting lands at an approximate gross cost of $600,000 to the joint venture partnership. These lands are subject to a 7.5% overriding royalty to Suncor. Eden also earned a first right of refusal to equalize to its proportionate share in another 5,760 gross acres held by Suncor.

The well spud on February 10, 2007 and reached final depth of 8,415 feet. On March 19, 2007, our partners and we reported the well was dry and was to be abandoned.

We have recognized total impairment of $1,462,241 related to the two dry wells. On October 4, 2007, we reported we plan to conduct additional seismic operations this winter and if warranted drill one new well at Chinchaga the following winter drilling season.

In 2007 the Alberta government changed their oil and gas royalty assessment rates, and then subsequently announced they are reviewing some aspects of the changes. Due to the uncertainty and implications of these changes, the Company and its partners have agreed to defer exploration decisions until such time as the matter is clarified.

On July 28, 2008 we reported we continue to monitor industry activity in the area before making further exploration or drilling decisions. At this time no further decisions on continuing exploration in the area have been made.

Competition

The oil and gas industry is intensely competitive. We compete with numerous individuals and companies, including many major oil and gas companies, which have substantially greater technical, financial and operational resources and staff. Accordingly, there is a high degree of competition for desirable oil and gas leases, suitable properties for drilling operations and necessary drilling equipment, as well as for access to funds. There are other competitors that have operations in the Nevada, Northern Alberta and Colorado areas and the presence of these competitors could adversely affect our ability to acquire additional leases and/or equipment as required.

Governmental Regulations

Our oil and gas operations are subject to various United States and Canadian federal, state/provincial and local governmental regulations. Matters subject to regulation include discharge permits for drilling operations, drilling and abandonment bonds, reports concerning operations, the spacing of wells, and pooling of properties and taxation. From time to time, regulatory agencies have imposed price controls and limitations on production by restricting the rate of flow of oil and gas wells below actual production capacity in order to conserve supplies of oil and gas. The production, handling, storage, transportation and disposal of oil and gas, by-products thereof, and other substances and materials produced or used in connection with oil and gas operations are also subject to regulation under federal, state, provincial and local laws and regulations relating primarily to the protection of human health and the environment. To date, expenditures related to complying with these laws, and for remediation of existing environmental contamination, have not been significant in relation to the results of operations of our company. The requirements imposed by such laws and regulations are frequently changed and subject to interpretation, and we are unable to predict the ultimate cost of compliance with these requirements or their effect on our operations.

13


Research and Development

We have incurred $Nil in research and development expenditures over the last fiscal year.

Employees

Currently our only employees are our directors, officers, corporate manager, oil and gas assistant, and an investor relation’s consultant. Effective February 28, 2009, we concluded our contract with an investor’s relations consultant and laid off a corporate manager and oil and gas assistant. There may be further material changes in the number of employees over the next 12-month period. We do and will continue to outsource contract employment as needed. However, with project advancement and if we are successful in our initial and any subsequent drilling programs we may retain additional employees.

Effective June 11, 2007, Ralph Stensaker, CGA, MBA was appointed to our Board of Directors and Audit Committee. Effective January 1, 2008, Larry Kellison became an employee of Eden Energy Corp. Effective January 31, 2008, Ralph Stensaker was appointed Chair of our Audit Committee.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Our business operations are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to those set forth below:

We have had negative cash flows from operations If we are unable to obtain financing in the amounts and on terms deemed acceptable to us, we may be unable to continue our business and as a result may be required to scale back or cease operations for our business, the result of which would be that our stockholders would lose some or all of their investment.

To date we have had negative cash flows from operations and we have been dependent on sales of our equity securities and debt financing to meet our cash requirements and have incurred losses totaling approximately $30,996,554 for the year ended December 31, 2008, and cumulative losses of $44,980,456 to December 31, 2008. As of December 31, 2008 we had working capital of $130,693 as a result of past financing activities. We do not expect positive cash flow from operations in the near term and there is no assurance that actual cash requirements will not exceed our estimates, or that our sales projections will be realized as estimated. In particular, additional capital may be required in the event that:

- drilling and completion costs for further wells increase beyond our expectations; or

- commodity prices for our production decline beyond our expectations; or

- production levels do not meet our expectations; or

- we encounter greater costs associated with general and administrative expenses or offering costs.

The occurrence of any of the aforementioned events could adversely affect our ability to meet our business plans.

We will depend almost exclusively on outside capital to pay for the continued exploration and development of our properties. Such outside capital may include the sale of additional stock and/or commercial borrowing. Capital may not continue to be available if necessary to meet these continuing development costs or, if the capital is available, that it will be on terms acceptable to us. The issuance of additional equity securities by us would result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments.

If we are unable to obtain financing in the amounts and on terms deemed acceptable to us, we may be unable to continue our business and as a result may be required to scale back or cease operations for our business, the result of which would be that our stockholders would lose some or all of their investment.

14


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

A prolonged decline in the price of our common stock could result in a reduction in the liquidity of our common stock and a reduction in our ability to raise capital. Because our operations have been primarily financed through the sale of equity securities, a decline in the price of our common stock could be especially detrimental to our liquidity and our continued operations. Any reduction in our ability to raise equity capital in the future would force us to reallocate funds from other planned uses and would have a significant negative effect on our business plans and operations, including our ability to develop new products and continue our current operations. If our stock price declines, we may not be able to raise additional capital or generate funds from operations sufficient to meet our obligations.

We have a history of losses and fluctuating operating results. We expect to continue to incur operating losses and negative cash flow until we receive significant commercial production from our properties

From inception through to December 31, 2008, we have incurred aggregate losses of approximately $44,980,456. Our loss from operations for the year ended December 31, 2008 was $31,211,932. There is no assurance that we will operate profitably or will generate positive cash flow in the future. In addition, our operating results in the future may be subject to significant fluctuations due to many factors not within our control, such as the unpredictability of when customers will purchase our production and/or services, the size of customers’ purchases, the demand for our production and/or services, and the level of competition and general economic conditions. If we cannot generate positive cash flows in the future, or raise sufficient financing to continue our normal operations, then we may be forced to scale down or even close our operations. Until such time as we generate significant revenues, we expect an increase in development costs and operating costs. Consequently, we expect to continue to incur operating losses and negative cash flow until we receive significant commercial production from our properties.

We have a limited operating history and if we are not successful in continuing to grow our business, then we may have to scale back or even cease our ongoing business operations.

We have limited history of revenues from operations and have limited significant tangible assets. We have yet to generate positive earnings and there can be no assurance that we will ever operate profitably. Our company has a limited operating history and must be considered in the development stage. The success of our company is significantly dependent on a successful acquisition, drilling, completion and production program. Our company’s operations will be subject to all the risks inherent in the establishment of a developing enterprise and the uncertainties arising from the absence of a significant operating history. We may be unable to locate recoverable reserves, extract the reserves economically, and/or operate on a profitable basis. We are in the development stage and potential investors should be aware of the difficulties normally encountered by enterprises in the development stage. If our business plan is not successful, and we are not able to operate profitably, investors may lose some or all of their investment in our company.

Trading of our stock may be restricted by the SEC's "Penny Stock" regulations, which may limit a stockholder's ability to buy and sell our stock.

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

15


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

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

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

Trading in our common shares on the OTC Bulletin Board is limited and sporadic making it difficult for our shareholders to sell their shares or liquidate their investments.

Our common shares are currently listed for public trading on the OTC Bulletin Board. The trading price of our common shares has been subject to wide fluctuations. Trading prices of our common shares may fluctuate in response to a number of factors, many of which will be beyond our control. The stock market has generally experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of companies with no current business operation. There can be no assurance that trading prices and price earnings ratios previously experienced by our common shares will be matched or maintained. These broad market and industry factors may adversely affect the market price of our common shares, regardless of our operating performance.

In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company's securities, securities class-action litigation has often been instituted. Such litigation, if instituted, could result in substantial costs for us and a diversion of management's attention and resources.

Because of the early stage of development and the nature of our business, our securities are considered highly speculative.

Our securities must be considered highly speculative, generally because of the nature of our business and the early stage of its development. We have largely been engaged in the business of exploring and until only recently attempting to develop commercial reserves of oil and gas. Our Alberta property is in the exploration stage and without known reserves of oil and gas. Only our Colorado properties have commenced production. Accordingly, we have not generated significant revenues nor have we realized a profit from our operations to date and there is little likelihood that we will generate significant revenues or realize any profits in the short term. Any profitability in the future from our business will be dependent upon attaining adequate levels of internally generated revenues through locating and developing economic reserves of oil and gas, which itself is subject to numerous risk factors as set forth herein. Since we have not generated significant revenues, we will have to raise additional monies through either securing industry reserve based debt financing, or the sale of our equity securities or debt, or combinations of the above in order to continue our business operations.

16


As our properties are in the exploration and early development stage there can be no assurance that we will establish commercial discoveries and/or profitable production programs on these properties.

Exploration for economic reserves of oil and gas is subject to a number of risk factors. Few properties that are explored are ultimately developed into producing oil and/or gas wells. Our Nevada properties have been impaired and our Alberta properties are in the exploration stage only and are without proven reserves of oil and gas. We may not establish commercial discoveries on these properties. Our Colorado property is in early stage development drilling and may prove uneconomic to develop.

The potential profitability of oil and gas ventures depends upon factors beyond the control of our company.

The potential profitability of oil and gas properties is dependent upon many factors beyond our control. For instance, world prices and markets for oil and gas are unpredictable, highly volatile, potentially subject to governmental fixing, pegging, controls, or any combination of these and other factors, and respond to changes in domestic, international, political, social, and economic environments. Additionally, due to worldwide economic uncertainty, the availability and cost of funds for production and other expenses have become increasingly difficult, if not impossible, to project. These changes and events may materially affect our financial performance.

Adverse weather conditions can also hinder drilling operations. A productive well may become uneconomic in the event water or other deleterious substances are encountered which impair or prevent the production of oil and/or gas from the well. In addition, production from any well may be unmarketable if it is impregnated with water or other deleterious substances. The marketability of oil and gas, which may be acquired or discovered, will be affected by numerous factors beyond our control. These factors include the proximity and capacity of oil and gas pipelines and processing equipment, market fluctuations of prices, taxes, royalties, land tenure, allowable production and environmental protection. These factors cannot be accurately predicted and the combination of these factors may result in our company not receiving an adequate return on invested capital.

Competition in the oil and gas industry is highly competitive and there is no assurance that we will be successful in acquiring the leases.

The oil and gas industry is intensely competitive. We compete with numerous individuals and companies, including many major oil and gas companies, which have substantially greater technical, financial and operational resources and staff. Accordingly, there is a high degree of competition for desirable oil and gas leases, suitable properties for drilling operations and necessary drilling equipment, as well as for access to funds. We cannot predict if the necessary funds can be raised or that any projected work will be completed. Our budget does not anticipate the potential acquisition of additional acreage in Nevada and/or Alberta although this may change at any time without notice. This acreage may not become available or if it is available for leasing, that we may not be successful in acquiring the leases. There are other competitors that have operations in these areas and the presence of these competitors could adversely affect our ability to acquire additional leases.

The marketability of natural resources will be affected by numerous factors beyond our control, which may result in us not receiving an adequate return on invested capital to be profitable or viable.

The marketability of natural resources, which may be acquired or discovered by us, will be affected by numerous factors beyond our control. These factors include market fluctuations in oil and gas pricing and demand, the proximity and capacity of natural resource markets and processing equipment, governmental regulations, land tenure, land use, regulation concerning the importing and exporting of oil and gas and environmental protection regulations. The exact effect of these factors cannot be accurately predicted, but the combination of these factors may result in us not receiving an adequate return on invested capital to be profitable or viable.

Oil and gas operations are subject to comprehensive regulation, which may cause substantial delays or require capital outlays in excess of those anticipated causing an adverse effect on our company.

Oil and gas operations are subject to federal, state, and local laws relating to the protection of the environment, including laws regulating removal of natural resources from the ground and the discharge of materials into the

17


environment. Oil and gas operations are also subject to federal, state, and local laws and regulations, which seek to maintain health and safety standards by regulating the design and use of drilling methods and equipment. Various permits from government bodies are required for drilling operations to be conducted; no assurance can be given that such permits will be received. Environmental standards imposed by federal, provincial, or local authorities may be changed and any such changes may have material adverse effects on our activities. Moreover, compliance with such laws may cause substantial delays or require capital outlays in excess of those anticipated, thus causing an adverse effect on us. Additionally, we may be subject to liability for pollution or other environmental damages, which it may elect not to insure against due to prohibitive premium costs and other reasons. To date we have not been required to spend any material amount on compliance with environmental regulations. However, we may be required to do so in future and this may affect our ability to expand or maintain our operations.

Exploration and production activities are subject to certain environmental regulations, which may prevent or delay the commencement or continuance of our operations.

In general, our exploration and production activities are subject to certain federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to environmental quality and pollution control. Such laws and regulations increase the costs of these activities and may prevent or delay the commencement or continuance of a given operation. Compliance with these laws and regulations has not had a material effect on our operations or financial condition to date. Specifically, we are subject to legislation regarding emissions into the environment, water discharges and storage and disposition of hazardous wastes. In addition, legislation has been enacted which requires well and facility sites to be abandoned and reclaimed to the satisfaction of state authorities. However, such laws and regulations are frequently changed and we are unable to predict the ultimate cost of compliance. Generally, environmental requirements do not appear to affect us any differently or to any greater or lesser extent than other companies in the industry.

We believe that our operations comply, in all material respects, with all applicable environmental regulations.

Our operating partners maintain insurance coverage customary to the industry; however, we are not fully insured against all possible environmental risks.

Exploratory and development drilling involves many risks and we may become liable for pollution or other liabilities, which may have an adverse effect on our 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 labour, and other risks are involved. We may become subject to liability for pollution or hazards against which it cannot adequately insure or which it may elect not to insure. Incurring any such liability may have a material adverse effect on our financial position and operations.

Any change to government regulation/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, Canada, 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 By-laws contain provisions indemnifying our officers and directors against all costs, charges and expenses incurred by them.

Our By-laws contain provisions with respect to the indemnification of our officers and directors against all costs, charges and expenses, including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment, actually and reasonably incurred by him, including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment in a civil, criminal or

18


administrative action or proceeding to which he is made a party by reason of his being or having been one of our directors or officers.

Investors' interests in our company will be diluted and investors may suffer dilution in their net book value per share if we issue additional shares or raise funds through the sale of equity securities.

Our constating documents authorize the issuance of 100,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001 and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.001. In the event that we are required to issue any additional shares or enter into private placements to raise financing through the sale of equity securities, investors' interests in our company will be diluted and investors may suffer dilution in their net book value per share depending on the price at which such securities are sold. If we issue any such additional shares, such issuances also will cause a reduction in the proportionate ownership and voting power of all other shareholders. Further, any such issuance may result in a change in our control.

Our By-laws do not contain anti-takeover provisions, which could result in a change of our management and directors if there is a take-over of our company.

We do not currently have a shareholder rights plan or any anti-takeover provisions in our By-laws. Without any anti-takeover provisions, there is no deterrent for a take-over of our company, which may result in a change in our management and directors.

As a result of a majority of our directors and officers are residents of other countries other than the United States, investors may find it difficult to enforce, within the United States, any judgments obtained against our company or our directors and officers.

Other than our operations office in Denver, Colorado, we do not currently maintain a permanent place of business within the United States. In addition, a majority of our directors and officers are nationals and/or residents of countries other than the United States, and all or a substantial portion of such persons' assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to enforce within the United States any judgments obtained against our company or our officers or directors, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof.

Other Risks

Trends, Risks and Uncertainties

We have sought to identify what we believe to be the most significant risks to our business, but we cannot predict whether, or to what extent, any of such risks may be realized nor can we guarantee that we have identified all possible risks that might arise. Investors should carefully consider all of such risk factors before making an investment decision with respect to our common stock.

Item 2.      Properties

Executive Offices

Our corporate headquarters are located at 1680, 200 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia V6C 3L6, Canada. On September 1, 2007, we entered into a five-year office lease for approximately 4,574 square feet of rentable area at a gross cost of approximately Cdn$25,000 per month. Within this space we are permitted to sublease to multiple tenants and effective August 1, 2008 and expiring on August 31, 2009, we have 4 sublease tenants secured with gross rent of approximately Cdn$10,250 per month. Reflecting the likely suspension of drilling operations in 2009, effective March 1, 2009 the cost of our subleased operations office in Denver, Colorado will reduce to a gross cost

19


of $2,000 per month. With the reduction of operations in 2009 we plan to attempt to sublease further office space to better align our costs with an anticipated reduction in future revenues. At the present time, we do not have any real estate holdings and there are no plans to acquire any real property interests.

Item 3.      Legal Proceedings

We know of no material, existing or pending legal proceedings against us, nor are we involved as a plaintiff in any material proceeding or pending litigation. There are no proceedings in which any of our directors, officers or affiliates, or any registered or beneficial shareholder, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our company.

Item 4.      Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

Item 7.      Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated audited financial statements and the related notes that appear elsewhere in this annual report. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed below and elsewhere in this annual report, particularly in the section entitled "Risk Factors" beginning on page 14 of this annual report.

Our consolidated audited financial statements are stated in United States Dollars and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

Overview

We are a Nevada corporation incorporated on January 29, 1999. We were previously involved in the business of providing internet and programming services through our subsidiary company to clients located primarily in Canada. Our principal products and services included the development of e-commerce web sites and strategies, web design and hosting, domain name registration, Internet marketing and consulting and custom programming of web based applications. Due to the inability to run this business with a profit and the difficulty in attracting additional capital on terms favorable to existing shareholders, we ceased operation of this business and disposed of our subsidiary company on December 31, 2003 for nominal consideration. We became an exploration stage oil and gas company engaged in the exploration for petroleum and natural gas in the State of Nevada and the Province of Alberta, Canada. As of July 28, 2008 our primary focus became a development-drilling program for natural gas in the State of Colorado and due to the commencement of receiving significant revenues in 2008, as at December 31, 2008 we have moved from an exploration stage company to an operating company

PLAN OF OPERATIONS AND CASH REQUIREMENTS

Cash Requirements

As reported on July 28, 2008 we expect to monitor our exploration projects as our joint venture agreements provide for. We expect to review other potential exploration projects from time to time as they are presented to us.

In Colorado, we hold 640 gross acres in our White River Dome, Ant Hill Unit development-drilling project. We have assigned our interests to our partners in the Noah and Cherry Creek projects in Nevada. In Alberta we have interests in approximately 23,000 gross acres of leases pursuant to our joint venture exploration agreements.

Our focus of activity is our development-drilling program in Colorado and over the next twelve month period we have not budgeted for exploration expenditures.

The declines in gas and oil prices together with the ongoing deterioration of general economic conditions has led to a significant write down in the valuation of our Colorado assets and currently has eroded our access to reserve based financing for continued drilling in Colorado. Unless there is dramatic positive change to the deterioration of the general economy and resultant depressed commodity prices, which we do not anticipate in the short term, drilling operations in Colorado for 2009 have been suspended and we are downgrading our estimate of net revenues for the next twelve month period. We now expect the resultant cash flows for 2009 not to exceed a range of $750,000 to $850,000 leaving us with an anticipated operating cash shortfall within the next twelve month period. As at December 31, 2008 we had received or accrued approximately $2,392,435 from gas, oil, and natural gas liquid sales from our production wells.

Management is reassessing its future plans in the area as a result of the deterioration of selling prices and field results prior to further decisions. Management is rationalizing corporate costs where possible in an attempt to better align them with future expected reduced revenues, though based on current projections Management anticipates an operating cash shortfall within the next twelve month period. Additional funds to meet obligations and to cover the costs of company operations are required in the near future and Management is attempting to secure funding, though

22


given the recent global economic collapse and the decline in commodity prices there is uncertainty that further funding can be raised.

Our net cash used in financing activities during the nine months ended December 31, 2008 was ($5,361,070) due to the repayment of convertible promissory notes. Our total net cash provided by financing since January 1, 2004, the date of inception of the exploration stage to December 31, 2008 was $32,945,800. We repaid the outstanding balance of approximately $5,398,570 on our convertible promissory notes when they matured on August 25, 2008.

We will require additional funds in the near future to maintain operations and further funds to implement our growth strategy in our gas development operations. These funds may be raised through equity financing, debt financing, or other sources, which may result in further dilution in the equity ownership of our shares. There is still no assurance that we will be able to maintain operations at a level sufficient for an investor to obtain a return on his investment in our common stock. Further, we may continue to be unprofitable.

In order to proceed with our plans we have raised funds by way of a private placement of equity and debt securities in our company. Our initial offering consisted of 6,190,000 shares at a price of $0.50 per share for gross proceeds of $3,095,000. We closed the private placement on November 12, 2004 and issued certificates on November 17, 2004. The net proceeds received have been used as working capital to allow us to finance our commitments under the assignment agreement previously discussed. On November 24, 2004, we issued a further 20,000 shares at a price of $0.50 per share for gross proceeds of $10,000.

On April 5, 2005, we issued 3,840,067 shares and 1,920,035 share purchase warrants at a price of $1.50 per share for gross proceeds of $5,760,100. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase an additional share of common stock of our company at a price of $2.00 per share until April 4, 2006. On April 27, 2005, we issued 200,000 shares and 100,000 share purchase warrants at a price of $1.50 per share for gross proceeds of $300,000. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase an additional share of common stock of our company at a price of $2.00 per share until April 27, 2006. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, 1,962,535 shares were issued on the exercise of 1,962,535 warrants, and on February 6, 2006 we issued the final 57,500 shares on the exercise of the final 57,500 warrants.

On August 25, 2005 we issued convertible promissory notes with a principal amount of $9,075,000, and 907,500 Series “A” detachable share purchase warrants. The notes bear interest at 6% per annum, mature on August 25, 2008, and may be converted into 1,815,000 shares of common stock on the basis of one share of common stock for every $5 in value of Notes. Each warrant is exercisable into one share of common stock at an exercise price of $6 per share until August 25, 2008. The investors also have the option to make an additional investment of up to 30% of their original investment for 180 days after the closing date, on the same terms as the original investment. No further investments were made under this option. On November 28, 2005, we issued 90,000 shares of common stock upon the conversion of a portion of our convertible promissory notes. On December 1, 2005 we issued 59,291 shares of common stock in lieu of a cash interest payment on the convertible promissory notes. The Conversion Price and the Exercise Price are subject to adjustments under certain conditions and events occurring, including the issue of common stock and common stock equivalents at a price per share less than the Conversion Price or Exercise Price. Upon the completion of the financing on February 24, 2006 the Conversion Price was reduced from $5.00 to $4.32, and the Exercise Price was reduced from $6.00 to $5.04. On June 1, 2006 we issued 113,258 shares of common stock in lieu of a cash interest payment on the convertible promissory notes. On December 1, 2006 we issued 149,466 shares of common stock in lieu of a cash interest payment on the convertible promissory notes. On June 1, 2007 we issued 242,245 shares of common stock in lieu of a cash interest payment on the convertible promissory notes. On December 1, 2007 we issued 332,886 shares of common stock in lieu of a cash interest payment on the convertible promissory notes. On June 2, 2008 we issued 329,665 shares of common stock in lieu of a cash interest payment on the convertible promissory notes.

On September 27, 2005, we issued 1,065,972 shares of common stock upon the exercise of 1,065,972 share purchase warrants at $0.50 per share for proceeds of $532,986. On November 8, 2005, we received a portion of an initial project acquisition cost in the amount of US$667,000. On January 9, 2007 we received final payment relating to the same project divesture in the amount of US$200,000.

23


On February 17 and 23, 2006, we issued a combined total of 7,366,520 shares and 14,733,040 share purchase warrants at a price of $2.25 per share for gross proceeds of $16,574,670. The warrant entitles the holders to purchase an additional 7,366,520 shares of common stock of our company at a price of $3.25 per share and an additional 7,366,520 shares of common stock at a price of $5.25 per share until February 16, 2009. On July 31, 2006 we issued 165,774 shares of common stock pursuant to the financing’s registration requirements. On February 16, 2009 all warrants related to this financing expired.

On January 17, 2008 and February 8, 2008 five Noteholders elected to convert Notes under a Note and Warrant Amendment Agreement (“Amendment”) at a conversion price of $0.50 (86% of the closing bid price of the last 5 trading days of 2007). Pursuant to the Amendment the term of their Warrants has been amended to expire on August 25, 2009 and the exercise price of the Warrants has been amended to $1.00, unless the Warrants are exercised within 30 business days of the closing date of their Amendment dated January 17, 2008 and February 8, 2008 respectively, in which case the exercise price of the Warrants shall be $0.50. A total of $2,219,399 of principle and accrued interest has been converted at a price of $0.50 whereby we issued 4,438,798 shares of our common stock. Under the terms of the Amendment unconverted Notes held by one of the five Noteholders will be convertible into shares at a price of $0.65 per share until Note maturity. We also paid a commission of $67,220 for brokerage services. On February 19, 2008, we issued 75,000 common shares upon the exercise of 75,000 warrants at $0.50 per share for proceeds of $37,500.

On March 13, 2008, we entered into a Note and Warrant Amendment Agreement with one of the holders of the Notes whereby the terms of the 6% convertible debt due August 25, 2008 was amended. Upon their election to participate and pursuant to the Amendment, the conversion price for the notes upon 100% conversion was amended to $0.70 (approximately 80% of the closing price of the last 5 trading days ending February 29, 2008), the term of their warrants was amended to expire on August 25, 2009 and the exercise price of the warrants was amended to $1.10, unless the warrants are exercised within 30 business days of the closing date of the Amendment, in which case the exercise price of the warrants shall be $0.70. We issued 726,667 shares of common stock upon the conversion of principal and interest in the amount of $508,667, and we paid a commission of $15,260 for brokerage services.

On April 2, 2008, we entered into a Note and Warrant Amendment Agreement with two of the Note and Warrant holders (accredited investors), whereby we amended the terms of the 6% Convertible Promissory Notes due August 25, 2008. In regards to the Notes and Warrants held by these investors, pursuant to the Note and Warrant Amendment Agreement, the Conversion Price for the Notes has been amended to $0.70, the term of their Warrants has been amended to expire on August 25, 2009 and the exercise price of the Warrants has been amended to $1.10, unless the Warrants are exercised within 30 business days of the closing date of the Note and Warrant Amendment Agreement dated April 2, 2008, in which case the exercise of the Warrants shall be $0.70. Finally, the definition of “Registrable Securities” in the Registration Rights Agreement has been amended to mean the shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants. We issued 836,786 shares of our common stock to these two accredited investors upon conversion of the Convertible Notes referred to above. The aggregate amount of principal and interest converted by the investors was $585,750. We paid a cash commission of $17,694 for brokerage services.

The Conversion Price of Notes and the Exercise Price of Warrants held by Noteholders who elected not to participate in the Amendment conversion are subject to adjustments under certain conditions and events occurring, including the issue of common stock and common stock equivalents at a price per share less than the Conversion Price or Exercise Price. Upon the completion of the conversion of Notes pursuant to the Amendments as described above, the Conversion Price of these Notes has been reduced from $4.32 to $3.86 and the Exercise Price of these Warrants has been reduced from $5.04 to $4.48. The number of potential shares issuable underlying the Notes outstanding increases to approximately 5,293,644.

On August 25, 2008 we retired the full outstanding balance due on the Convertible Promissory Notes in the principal amount of $5,398,570 to nine Noteholders. We issued 297,614 common shares to these same Noteholders in lieu of a final interest payment of $77,380. On August 25, 2008, 308,012 warrants associated with the Note financing expired, leaving 597,088 $1.00 or $1.10 warrants exercisable until August 25, 2009.

Over the next twelve months we expect to expend funds as follows:

Estimated Net Expenditures During the Next Twelve Months
   
  $
General, Administrative, and Corporate Expenses 1,000,000
Ant Hill Unit Lease Operating Expenses 300,000
Total 1,300,000

We have suffered recurring losses from operations. The continuation of our company is dependent upon our company attaining and maintaining profitable operations and raising additional capital as needed. In this regard we have raised additional capital through the equity offerings noted above.

The continuation of our business is dependent upon obtaining further financing, a successful program of exploration and/or development, and, finally, achieving a profitable level of operations. The issuance of additional equity securities by us could result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments.

There are no assurances that we will be able to obtain further funds required for our continued operations. As noted herein, we are pursuing various financing alternatives to meet our immediate and long-term financial requirements. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available to us when needed or, if available, that it can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. If we are not able to obtain the additional financing on a timely basis, we will be unable to conduct our operations as planned, and we will not be able to meet our other obligations as they become due. In such event, we will be forced to scale down or perhaps even cease our operations.

December 31, 2007. Our accumulated losses increased to $44,980,454 as of December 31, 2008. Our financial statements report a net loss of $30,996,554 for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2008 compared to a net loss of $1,326,699 for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2007. Our losses have increased primarily as a result of an increase in the non-cash debt conversion expense relating to the conversions of the Company’s convertible debt of $3,605,000 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2008 as compared to $nil for the twelve months ended December 31, 2007, and as a result of an increase in impairment of oil and gas properties of $24,794,404 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2008 as compared to $nil for the twelve months ended December 31, 2007. The Company also recognized depletion of its capitalized oil and gas expenditures of $1,415,736 during the twelve months ended December 31, 2008, compared to $nil for the twelve months ended December 31, 2007. The depletion rate for Colorado production for the twelve months ended December 31, 2008 was $4.61/mcfe.

Our total liabilities as of December 31, 2008 were $2,044,722 as compared to total liabilities of $10,747,547 as of December 31, 2007. The decrease was due to a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities (from $2,440,031 as at December 31, 2007 to $1,810,797 as at December 31, 2008) and a decrease in our outstanding Convertible Notes from $8,194,254 as at December 31, 2007 to $nil as at December 31, 2008.

During the twelve month period ended December 31, 2008 we spent $12,213,183 on exploration, development and acquisition of our oil and gas properties as compared to $7,580,772 spent during the twelve month period ended December 31, 2007. Of this amount $220,041 was attributable to acquisition costs (2007 - $332,642), and $11,993,142 (2007 - $7,248,130) was attributable to exploration and development costs.

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $812,945 in the twelve months ended December 31, 2008 compared with net cash used in operating activities of $255,370 in the same period in 2007.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $12,768,396 in the twelve months ended December 31, 2008 compared to net cash used in investing activities of $3,565,559 in the same period in 2007. The increase in use of cash of $9,202,837 in investing activities is mainly attributable to the increase in oil and gas property exploration and development costs.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was ($5,361,070) in the twelve months ended December 31, 2008 compared to $nil in the same period in 2007. This is attributable to the repayment of convertible promissory notes matured on August 25, 2008.

Oil and gas sales volume comparisons for the quarter ended December 31, 2008 compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2007

For the quarter ended December 31, 2008 total net production increased to approximately 82,069 Mcfe as compared to approximately 2,772 Mcfe for the quarter ended December 31, 2007. We recognized oil and gas sales of approximately $271,115 during the quarter ended December 31, 2008 as compared to approximately $18,037 during the same prior year quarter. The increase in oil and gas production volumes in the White River Dome, Ant Hill Project is due to the impact of work over completions on two wells in the unit and production coming from five (5) operating wells in the quarter ended December 31, 2008 as compared to two (2) operating wells in the quarter ended December 31, 2007. The drilling program in the White River Dome, Ant Hill Project of four (4) additional wells, which began in July 2008 has further increased production in the fourth quarter of 2008.

Contractual Obligations

As a “smaller reporting company”, we are not required to provide tabular disclosure obligations.

Going Concern

In 2008 we commenced receiving significant revenues from the White River Dome project and at mid year we concluded our Nevada exploration projects. Reflecting these operational changes, as at December 31, 2008 we moved from an exploration stage company to an operating company. However, due to production instability with our new wells in the White River Dome field and a dramatic decline in oil and gas selling prices through 2008, we continue to be burdened with operating losses and a lack of positive cash flow to the point where we anticipate an operating cash short fall in the near future. Reserve based debt financing for further development is currently unavailable to us due to the decline in oil and gas selling prices. We anticipate that additional funding will be required in the form of equity financing from the sale of our common stock. At this time, we cannot provide investors with any assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient funding from the sale of our common stock or through a loan from our directors to meet our obligations over the next twelve months. We currently do not have any arrangements in place for any future debt or equity financing. Global financial markets and economic conditions have deteriorated significantly and though we have been successful in the past raising funding, we may not be successful in future or as early as funds are required in order to maintain operations. We are attempting to reduce overhead costs where possible to meet anticipated reduced revenues but prior commitments make this challenging to realize. Future economic concerns and uncertainty are exacerbating the already negative environment we operate in as continued downward pricing pressure is expected through the year ahead, which will result in further reduced revenues realized.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.

27


Critical Accounting Policies

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management’s application of accounting policies. We believe that understanding the basis and nature of the estimates and assumptions involved with the following aspects of our financial statements is critical to an understanding of our financial statements.

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

These consolidated financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and are expressed in United States dollars. Our company has produced significant revenue from its principal business and in fiscal years prior to December 31, 2008 was considered an Exploration Stage Company, as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 7 “Accounting and Reporting for Development Stage Enterprises”. These financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Frontier Exploration Ltd. (“Frontier”), Southern Frontier Explorations Ltd. (“Southern”), companies incorporated and based in the State of Nevada, Eden Energy (North) Ltd. (“Eden North”), a company incorporated and based in the Province of Alberta, Canada, and Eden Energy Colorado LLC (“Eden Colorado”), a company incorporated and based in the State of Colorado. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Our fiscal year-end is December 31.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Our company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions. Our company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by our company may differ materially and adversely from our company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected. The most significant estimates with regard to these financial statements relate to recoverable values of oil and gas properties, stock-based compensation, convertible notes, the provision for income taxes, depreciation, depletion and asset retirement obligations.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Our company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.

Foreign Currency Translation

Our company’s and its United States subsidiaries’ functional and reporting currency is the United States dollar. The functional currency of our company’s Canadian subsidiary is the Canadian dollar. The financial statements of the subsidiary are translated to United States dollars in accordance with SFAS No. 52 “Foreign Currency Translation” using period-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and average rates of exchange for the period for revenues and expenses. Translation gains (losses) are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income as a component of stockholders’ equity. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in current operations. Gains and losses arising on translation or settlement of foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are included in the determination of income. Foreign currency transactions are primarily undertaken in Canadian

28


dollars. Our company has not, to the date of these financials statements, entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

Asset Retirement Obligations

Our company accounts for asset retirement obligations in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 143 “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations”. SFAS No. 143 requires our company to record the fair value of an asset retirement obligation as a liability in the period in which it incurs an obligation associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development and/or normal use of the assets. The estimated fair value of the asset retirement obligation is based on the current cost escalated at an inflation rate and discounted at a credit adjusted risk-free rate. This liability is capitalized as part of the cost of the related asset and amortized over its useful life. The liability accretes until our company settles the obligation.

Oil and Gas Properties

Our company utilizes the full cost method to account for its investment in oil and gas properties. Accordingly, all costs associated with acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas reserves, including such costs as leasehold acquisition costs, capitalized interest costs relating to unproved properties, geological expenditures, tangible and intangible development costs including direct internal costs are capitalized to the full cost pool. When our company commences production from established proven oil and gas reserves, capitalized costs, including estimated future costs to develop the reserves and estimated abandonment costs, net of salvage, will be depleted on the units-of-production method using estimates of proved reserves. Investments in unproved properties and major development projects including capitalized interest, if any, are not depleted until proved reserves associated with the projects can be determined. If the future exploration of unproved properties are determined uneconomical the amount of such properties are added to the capitalized cost to be depleted.

The capitalized costs included in the full cost pool are subject to a "ceiling test", which limits such costs to the aggregate of the estimated present value, using a ten percent discount rate, of the future net revenues from proved reserves, based on current economic and operating conditions plus the lower of cost and estimated net realizable value of unproven 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 statement of operations.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is recorded at cost of $219,152 (2007 - $136,066) less accumulated depreciation of $68,135 (2006 - $22,471). Depreciation is recorded on the straight-line basis over five years.

Long-Lived Assets

In accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets", the carrying value of intangible assets and other long-lived assets is reviewed on a regular basis for the existence of facts or circumstances that may suggest impairment. Our company recognizes impairment when the sum of the expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. Impairment losses, if any, are measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the asset over its estimated fair value.

Loss Per Share

Our company computes net loss per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128 "Earnings per Share" which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the statement of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares

29


outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including convertible debt, stock options, and warrants, using the treasury stock method. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti dilutive. Shares underlying these securities totaled approximately 19,569,000 as of December 31, 2008. Diluted loss per share figures are equal to those of basic loss per share for each period since the effects of convertible debt, stock options and warrants have been excluded as they are anti-dilutive.

Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income”, establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive loss and its components in the financial statements. For the year ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the only components of comprehensive loss were foreign currency translation adjustments.

Financial Instruments

The carrying value of our company’s financial instruments, consisting of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, receivables, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to the relatively short maturity of these instruments. Our company has recorded the carrying value of Convertible Notes at the estimated fair value as described in Note 8. Financial instruments that potentially subject our company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash in excess of the federally insured amount of $100,000. To date, we have not incurred a loss relating to this concentration of credit risk.

Income Taxes

Our company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes as set forth in SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax balances. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted or substantially enacted tax rates expected to apply to the taxable income in the years in which those 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 income in the period that includes the date of enactment or substantive enactment.

Debt Issue Costs

In accordance with the Accounting Principles Board Opinion 21 “Interest on Receivables and Payables”, our company recognizes debt issue costs on the balance sheet as deferred charges, and amortizes the balance over the term of the related debt. Our company follows the guidance in the EITF 95-13 “Classification of Debt Issue Costs in the Statement of Cash Flows” and classifies cash payments for debt issue costs as a financing activity. During the year ended December 31, 2008, our company recognized amortization expense of $127,324 (2007 - $191,004).

Stock – Based Compensation

Our company has a stock-based compensation plan, whereby stock options are granted in accordance with the policies of the stock option plan. Our company records stock-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123R “Share Based Payments”, using the fair value method.

All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. Equity instruments issued to employees and the cost of the services received as consideration are measured and recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued.

30


Revenue Recognition

Oil and natural gas revenues are recorded using the sales method whereby our company recognizes oil and natural gas revenue based on the amount of oil and gas sold to purchasers when title passes, the amount is determinable and collection is reasonably assured. Actual sales of gas are based on sales, net of the associated volume charges for processing fees and for costs associated with delivery, transportation, marketing, and royalties in accordance with industry standards. Operating costs and taxes are recognized in the same period of which revenue is earned.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 163, “Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts – An interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60”. SFAS 163 requires that an insurance enterprise recognize a claim liability prior to an event of default when there is evidence that credit deterioration has occurred in an insured financial obligation. It also clarifies how Statement 60 applies to financial guarantee insurance contracts, including the recognition and measurement to be used to account for premium revenue and claim liabilities, and requires expanded disclosures about financial guarantee insurance contracts. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, except for some disclosures about the insurance enterprise’s risk-management activities. SFAS 163 requires that disclosures about the risk-management activities of the insurance enterprise be effective for the first period beginning after issuance. Except for those disclosures, earlier application is not permitted. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on our company’s financial statements.

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”. SFAS 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. It is effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, “The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on our company’s financial statements.

In March 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities – an amendment to FASB Statement No. 133”. SFAS No. 161 is intended to improve financial standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity's financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about: (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments; (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Statement 133 and its related interpretations; and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, with early adoption encouraged. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on our company’s financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, “Business Combinations”. This statement replaces SFAS 141 and defines the acquirer in a business combination as the entity that obtains control of one or more businesses in a business combination and establishes the acquisition date as the date that the acquirer achieves control. SFAS 141R requires an acquirer to recognize the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date. SFAS 141R also requires the acquirer to recognize contingent consideration at the acquisition date, measured at its fair value at that date. This statement is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on our company's financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements Liabilities – an Amendment of ARB No. 51”. This statement amends ARB 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the Non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. This statement is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December

31


15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on our company's future financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of Eden Energy Corp.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Eden Energy Corp. as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 and the consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these 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 an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the 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. Our audits included 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 financial statements and includes 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, these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 and the results of its operations and its cash flows and the changes in stockholders’ equity for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, during the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company commenced receiving significant revenue from its oil and gas properties and therefore is no longer in the exploration stage. To date, the Company has not generated profitable operations from its oil and gas business, has incurred significant losses in 2008 and further losses are anticipated. The Company will require additional funds to meet its obligations and the costs of its operations. There is uncertainty that further funding can be raised if and when needed. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in this regard are described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

1.

Nature and Continuance of Operations

   

The Company is involved in oil and gas exploration, development and production activities in Alberta, Canada, and Colorado and Nevada, USA. During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company commenced receiving significant revenue from its oil and gas properties and therefore is no longer in the exploration stage.

   

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States which contemplates the realization of assets and discharge of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has experienced negative cash flows from operations to date and has accumulated losses of $44,980,456 since inception including a loss for the current year of $30,996,554 of which $24,794,404 is related to property impairment. To date the Company has funded operations through the issuance of capital stock and debt. Management’s plan is to continue raising additional funds through future equity or debt financings, if available, as needed until it achieves profitable operations from its oil and gas activities. Given the recent global economic collapse and the decline in commodity prices there is uncertainty that further funding can be raised. The ability of the Company to continue its operations as a going concern is dependent on continuing to raise sufficient new capital to fund its exploration and development commitments and to fund ongoing losses if, as and when needed, and ultimately on generating profitable operations. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Significant Accounting Policies

   

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

   

These consolidated financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and are expressed in United States dollars. The Company has produced significant revenue from its principal business and in fiscal years prior to December 31, 2008 was considered an Exploration Stage Company, as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 7 “Accounting and Reporting for Development Stage Enterprises”. These financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Frontier Exploration Ltd. (“Frontier”), Southern Frontier Explorations Ltd. (“Southern”), companies incorporated and based in the State of Nevada, Eden Energy (North) Ltd. (“Eden North”), a company incorporated and based in the Province of Alberta, Canada, and Eden Energy Colorado LLC (“Eden Colorado”), a company incorporated and based in the State of Colorado. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The Company’s fiscal year-end is December 31.

   

Use of Estimates

   

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected. The most significant estimates with regard to these financial statements relate to recoverable values of oil and gas properties, stock-based compensation, convertible notes, the provision for income taxes, depreciation, depletion and asset retirement obligations.

   

Cash and Cash Equivalents

   

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.

   

Foreign Currency Translation

   

The Company’s and its United States subsidiaries’ functional and reporting currency is the United States dollar. The functional currency of the Company’s Canadian subsidiary is the Canadian dollar. The financial statements of the subsidiary are translated to United States dollars in accordance with SFAS No. 52 “Foreign Currency Translation” using period-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and average rates of exchange for the period for revenues and expenses. Translation gains (losses) are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income as a component of stockholders’ equity. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in current operations. Gains and losses arising on translation or settlement of foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are included in the determination of income. Foreign currency transactions are primarily undertaken in Canadian dollars. The Company has not, to the date of these financials statements, entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

   

Asset Retirement Obligations

   

The Company accounts for asset retirement obligations in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 143 “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations”. SFAS No. 143 requires the Company to record the fair value of an asset retirement obligation as a liability in the period in which it incurs an obligation associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development and/or normal use of the assets. The estimated fair value of the asset retirement obligation is based on the current cost escalated at an inflation rate and discounted at a credit adjusted risk-free rate. This liability is capitalized as part of the cost of the related asset and amortized over its useful life. The liability accretes until the Company settles the obligation.

Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

   

Oil and Gas Properties

   

The Company utilizes the full cost method to account for its investment in oil and gas properties. Accordingly, all costs associated with acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas reserves, including such costs as leasehold acquisition costs, capitalized interest costs relating to unproved properties, geological expenditures, tangible and intangible development costs including direct internal costs are capitalized to the full cost pool. When the Company commences production from established proven oil and gas reserves, capitalized costs, including estimated future costs to develop the reserves and estimated abandonment costs, net of salvage, will be depleted on the units-of- production method using estimates of proved reserves. Investments in unproved properties and major development projects including capitalized interest, if any, are not depleted until proved reserves associated with the projects can be determined. If the future exploration of unproved properties are determined uneconomical the amount of such properties are added to the capitalized cost to be depleted.

   

The capitalized costs included in the full cost pool are subject to a "ceiling test", which limits such costs to the aggregate of the estimated present value, using a ten percent discount rate, of the future net revenues from proved reserves, based on current economic and operating conditions plus the lower of cost and estimated net realizable value of unproven 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 statement of operations.

   

Property and Equipment

   

Property and equipment is recorded at cost of $219,152 (2007 - $136,066) less accumulated depreciation of $68,135 (2006 - $22,471). Depreciation is recorded on the straight-line basis over five years.

   

Long-Lived Assets

   

In accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets", the carrying value of intangible assets and other long-lived assets is reviewed on a regular basis for the existence of facts or circumstances that may suggest impairment. The Company recognizes impairment when the sum of the expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. Impairment losses, if any, are measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the asset over its estimated fair value.

   

Loss Per Share

   

The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128 "Earnings per Share" which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the statement of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including convertible debt, stock options, and warrants, using the treasury stock method. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti dilutive. Shares underlying these securities totaled approximately 19,569,000 as of December 31, 2008. Diluted loss per share figures are equal to those of basic loss per share for each period since the effects of convertible debt, stock options and warrants have been excluded as they are anti-dilutive.

   

Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

   

SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income”, establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive loss and its components in the financial statements. For the year ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the only components of comprehensive loss were foreign currency translation adjustments.

   

Financial Instruments

   

The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments, consisting of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, receivables, and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the relatively short maturity of these instruments. The Company has recorded the carrying value of Convertible Notes at the estimated fair value as described in Note 8. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash in excess of the federally insured amount of $100,000. To date, the Company has not incurred a loss relating to this concentration of credit risk.

   

Income Taxes

   

The Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes as set forth in SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax balances. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted or substantially enacted tax rates expected to apply to the taxable income in the years in which those 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 income in the period that includes the date of enactment or substantive enactment.

Debt Issue Costs

   

In accordance with the Accounting Principles Board Opinion 21 “Interest on Receivables and Payables”, the Company recognizes debt issue costs on the balance sheet as deferred charges, and amortizes the balance over the term of the related debt. The Company follows the guidance in the EITF 95-13 “Classification of Debt Issue Costs in the Statement of Cash Flows” and classifies cash payments for debt issue costs as a financing activity. During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company recognized amortization expense of $127,324 (2007 - $191,004).

   

Stock – Based Compensation

   

The Company has a stock-based compensation plan (Note 9), whereby stock options are granted in accordance with the policies of the stock option plan. The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123R “Share Based Payments”, using the fair value method.

   

All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. Equity instruments issued to employees and the cost of the services received as consideration are measured and recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued.

   

Revenue Recognition

   

Oil and natural gas revenues are recorded using the sales method whereby the Company recognizes oil and natural gas revenue based on the amount of oil and gas sold to purchasers when title passes, the amount is determinable and collection is reasonably assured. Actual sales of gas are based on sales, net of the associated volume charges for processing fees and for costs associated with delivery, transportation, marketing, and royalties in accordance with industry standards. Operating costs and taxes are recognized in the same period of which revenue is earned.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

   

In May 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 163, “Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts – An interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60”. SFAS 163 requires that an insurance enterprise recognize a claim liability prior to an event of default when there is evidence that credit deterioration has occurred in an insured financial obligation. It also clarifies how Statement 60 applies to financial guarantee insurance contracts, including the recognition and measurement to be used to account for premium revenue and claim liabilities, and requires expanded disclosures about financial guarantee insurance contracts. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, except for some disclosures about the insurance enterprise’s risk- management activities. SFAS 163 requires that disclosures about the risk-management activities of the insurance enterprise be effective for the first period beginning after issuance. Except for those disclosures, earlier application is not permitted. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

   

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”. SFAS 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. It is effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, “The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

   

In March 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities – an amendment to FASB Statement No. 133”. SFAS No. 161 is intended to improve financial standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity's financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about: (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments; (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Statement 133 and its related interpretations; and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, with early adoption encouraged. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

   

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, “Business Combinations”. This statement replaces SFAS 141 and defines the acquirer in a business combination as the entity that obtains control of one or more businesses in a business combination and establishes the acquisition date as the date that the acquirer achieves control. SFAS 141R requires an acquirer to recognize the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date. SFAS 141R also requires the acquirer to recognize contingent consideration at the acquisition date, measured at its fair value at that date. This statement is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements Liabilities – an Amendment of ARB No. 51”. This statement amends ARB 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the Non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. This statement is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's future financial statements.

The current Drilling and Development Agreement with EnCana Oil & Gas (USA), Inc. (EnCana) obliges the Company to conduct a continuous drilling program through future summer drilling seasons, which the Company estimates would consist of a minimum of six wells per season at a cost of approximately $2,000,000 per well. Due to the significant deterioration in natural gas selling prices in the Company’s project area and the lack of capital, the Company, has suspended drilling operations for the 2009 drilling season. Suspending continuous drilling operations for 2009 will, once the 2009 drilling season matures, cause the Company to become noncompliant with its agreement with EnCana. The Company believes EnCana is fully aware of the negative valuations of potential new wells using short term depressed oil and gas prices, and there are no assurances that a deferral or suspension of drilling activities through 2009 will be agreed to by EnCana. In the event EnCana does not agree to a deferral or suspension for 2009 continuous drilling program and unless negotiated otherwise, the Company’s current Drilling and Development Agreement and ability to drill future wells will terminate, and the Company will retain its interests in the current wells and properties earned to date. Federal unit obligations for drilling for 2009, which require a 2 well minimum, have been met with the Company’s 2008 drilling program

Convertible Notes

   

On August 25, 2005, the Company issued Convertible Promissory Notes (the “Notes”) to certain institutional investors with a principal amount of $9,075,000, and 907,500 Series “A” detachable share purchase warrants. The Notes bear interest at 6% per annum, mature on August 25, 2008, and may be converted into 1,815,000 shares of common stock on the basis of one share of common stock for every $5 in value of Notes (the “Conversion Price”). Each warrant is exercisable into one share of common stock at an exercise price of $6 per share (the “Exercise Price”) until August 25, 2008. The Company paid cash placement fees of $544,500, offering costs of $28,500 and issued 72,600 Broker Warrants. Each Broker Warrant is exercisable into one share of common stock at an exercise price of $6 per share until August 28, 2008.

   

The Conversion Price and the Exercise Price are subject to adjustments under certain conditions and events occurring, including the issue of common stock and common stock equivalents, by way of private placements, at a price per share less than the Conversion Price or Exercise Price. Accordingly, upon the completion of a financing on February 24, 2006, the Conversion Price was reduced from $5.00 to $4.32, and the Exercise Price was reduced from $6.00 to $5.04.

   

In accordance with EITF 98-5 “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratios”, the Company recognized the value of the embedded beneficial conversion feature of $3,854,490 as a non-cash interest expense and additional paid-in capital in 2005 as the debt was issued with an intrinsic value conversion feature. In addition, in accordance with EITF 00-27 “Application of Issue No. 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments”, the Company allocated the proceeds of issuance between the convertible debt and the detachable warrants based on their relative fair values. Accordingly, the Company recognized the fair value of the detachable warrants of $2,039,490 as additional paid-in capital. The Company recorded further interest expense over the term of the Convertible Debentures of $2,039,490 resulting from the difference between the stated value and carrying value at the date of issuance.

   

During the year ended December 31, 2005, a debenture with a principal amount of $450,000 was converted into 90,000 shares of common stock. The unamortized balance of the related embedded equity elements of $92,704 was charged to interest expense in 2005.

   

On January 17, 2008, and February 8, 2008 the Company entered into a Note and Warrant Amendment Agreement (“Amendment”) with five of the holders of the convertible debt, whereby the terms of the 6% convertible debt due August 25, 2008 were amended. Upon their election to participate and pursuant to the Amendment, the conversion price for the notes upon 100% conversion was amended to $0.50 (86% of the closing bid of the last 5 trading days of 2007), the term of their warrants was amended to expire on August 25, 2009, and the exercise price of the warrants was amended to $1.00, unless the warrants are exercised within 30 business days of the closing date of the Amendment, in which case the exercise price of the warrants shall be $0.50. On February 22, 2008, the Company issued 75,000 shares of common stock upon the exercise of 75,000 warrants at $0.50. The Company issued 4,438,798 shares of common stock, and recognized interest expense equal to the unamortized balance of the related embedded equity elements of $97,441 upon the conversion of principal of $2,198,383 and accrued interest of $21,016. Additional accrued interest for one of the note holders of $34,450 incurred to the date of conversion was added to the principal amount. The balance of their Convertible Debentures and related accrued interest outstanding has been adjusted such that it is convertible into shares at a price of $0.65 per share. Pursuant to FAS 84 “Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt” (“FAS 84”) the Company recognized a debt conversion expense of $2,403,000 equal to the fair value of all securities and other consideration transferred in the transaction in excess of the fair value of securities issuable pursuant to the original conversion terms as a result of the Amendment. The Company also paid a commission of $67,220 for brokerage services.

On March 13, 2008, the Company entered into a Note and Warrant Amendment Agreement (“Second Amendment”) with one of the holders of the convertible debt, whereby the terms of the 6% convertible debt due August 25, 2008 were amended.

The Company issued 726,667 shares of common stock, and recognized interest expense equal to the unamortized balance of the related embedded equity elements of $17,428 upon the conversion of principal of $500,000 and accrued interest of $8,667. Pursuant to FAS 84 the Company recognized a debt conversion expense of $556,000 equal to the fair value of all securities and other consideration transferred in the transaction in excess of the fair value of securities issuable pursuant to the original conversion terms as a result of the Second Amendment.

On April 2, 2008, the Company entered into a Note and Warrant Amendment Agreement (“Third Amendment”) with two of the holders of the convertible debt, whereby the terms of the 6% convertible debt due August 25, 2008 were amended.

The Company issued 836,786 shares of common stock, and recognized interest expense equal to the unamortized balance of the related embedded equity elements of $17,230 upon the conversion of principal of $562,500 and accrued interest of $23,250. Pursuant to FAS 84 the Company recognized an expense of $646,000 equal to the fair value of all securities and other consideration transferred in the transaction in excess of the fair value of securities issuable pursuant to the original conversion terms as a result of the Third Amendment. The Company also paid a commission of $17,694 for brokerage services.

     

Upon the completion of the conversions described above, those notes and warrants held by noteholders who chose not to participate in the amendments were repriced such that the conversion price of their notes was reduced from $4.32 to $3.86 and the exercise price of their warrants was reduced from $5.04 to $4.48.

      2007     2007  
      $       $   
               
  Earnings (loss) before taxes   (30,996,554 )   (1,327,000 )
  Statutory rate   35%     35%  
               
  Computed expected tax (recovery)   (10,849,000 )   (464,000 )
  Non-deductible expenses   1,395,000     (55,000 )
  Previously unrecognized tax assets   (1,158,000 )      
  Change in valuation allowance   10,612,000     519,000  
               
  Reported income taxes        

During the year 2008, the Company did not recognize any interest and penalties. The amount attributed to interest and penalties, if any, would be immaterial.

   

The Company has filed income tax returns since inception in the United States and Canada. Inherent uncertainties arise over tax positions taken with respect to transfer pricing, related party transactions, tax credits, tax based incentives and stock based transactions. Management has considered the likelihood and significance of possible penalties associated with its current and intended filing positions and has determined, based on their assessment, that such penalties, if any, would not be expected to be material.

   
12.

Subsequent Events

   

On March 5, 2009 the Company received notice of a lien being placed against the Colorado property by one of the suppliers relating to the pipeline installation. The lien filed is in the amount of $692,118, which the Company disputes as this amount: does not include credits and discounts previously agreed to of approximately $310,000 relating to incorrect billing processes and procedures performed by the supplier; does not reflect payments made by the Company; and includes certain other disputed amounts. The Company calculates the final amount due the supplier to be approximately $286,000.

   

The Company is working with its operating partner to resolve unpaid invoices and remove the lien, but the outcome is uncertain. The loss, if any, resulting from the outcome of the above will be recorded in the period when such determination or settlements are made.

   

The Company and its operating partner are aware there are other unpaid suppliers who could file notice of lien against the recently drilled White River Dome property.

Reserve Information

The following estimates of proved and proved developed reserve quantities and related standardized measure of discounted net cash flow are estimates only, and do not purport to reflect realizable values or fair market values of the Company’s reserves. The Company emphasizes that reserve estimates are inherently imprecise and that estimates of new discoveries are more imprecise than those of producing oil and gas properties. Accordingly, these estimates are expected to change as future information becomes available. All of the Company’s reserves are located in the United States.

Future cash flows are computed by applying fiscal period end prices of natural gas and oil to period end quantities of proved natural gas and oil reserves. Year-end market prices used for the standardized measures below were $25.97/barrel for liquids and $4.59/Mcf for gas. Future operating expenses and development costs are computed primarily by the Company’s petroleum engineers by estimating the expenditures to be incurred in developing and producing the Company’s proved natural gas and oil reserves at the end of the period, based on period end costs and assuming continuation of existing economic conditions.

Future income taxes are based on period end statutory rates, adjusted for tax basis and applicable tax credits. A discount factor of ten percent was used to reflect the timing of future net cash flows. The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows is not intended to represent the replacement cost of fair value of the Company’s natural gas and oil properties. An estimate of fair value would also take into account, among other things, the recovery of reserves not presently classified as proved, anticipated future changes in prices and costs, and a discount factor more representative of the time value of money and the risks inherent in reserve estimate of natural gas and oil producing operations.

Item 9.      Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

There were no disagreements related to accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, internal controls or auditing scope or procedure during the two fiscal years and interim periods, including the interim period up through the date the relationship ended.

Item 9A.    Controls and Procedures

Management’s Report on Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our president (also our principal executive officer) and our secretary, treasurer and chief financial officer (also our principal financial and accounting officer) to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our 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, and our management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

As of December 31, 2008, the end of our fiscal year covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our president (also our principal executive officer) and our secretary, treasurer and chief financial officer (also our principal financial and accounting officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, our president (also our principal executive officer) and our secretary, treasurer and chief financial officer (also our principal financial and accounting officer) concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this annual report in providing reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance’s with US generally accepted accounting principles.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Responsibility, estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the expected benefits and related costs of control procedures. The objectives of internal control include providing management with reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or disposition, and that transactions are executed in accordance with management’s authorization and recorded properly to permit the preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Our management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2008, our internal control over financial reporting is effective in providing reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles. Our management reviewed the results of their assessment with our Board of Directors.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our

33


company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit our company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Inherent limitations on effectiveness of controls

Internal control over financial reporting has inherent limitations which include but is not limited to the use of independent professionals for advice and guidance, interpretation of existing and/or changing rules and principles, segregation of management duties, scale of organization, and personnel factors. Internal control over financial reporting is a process which involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis, however these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process and it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no significant changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2008 that have materially or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

Family Relationships

There are no family relationships between any of our directors, executive officers and proposed directors or executive officers.

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

None of our directors, executive officers, promoters or control persons has been involved in any of the following events during the past five years:

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our executive officers and directors and persons who own more than 10% of our common stock to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial statements of beneficial ownership, reports of changes in ownership and annual reports concerning their ownership of our common stock and other equity securities, on Forms 3, 4 and 5 respectively. Executive officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders are required by the SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports that they file.

Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms received by us, or written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe that during fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, all filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater than 10% percent beneficial owners were complied with, with the exception of the following:

Code of Ethics

Effective March 24, 2004, our company's board of directors adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to, among other persons, our company's president and secretary (being our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer), as well as persons performing similar functions. As adopted, our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics sets forth written standards that are designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote:

  1.

honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;

  2.

full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that we file with, or submit to, the Securities and Exchange Commission and in other public communications made by us;

  3.

compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations;

  4.

the prompt internal reporting of violations of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics to an appropriate person or persons identified in the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics; and

  5.

accountability for adherence to the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics.

Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics requires, among other things, that all of our company's senior officers commit to timely, accurate and consistent disclosure of information; that they maintain confidential information; and that they act with honesty and integrity.

In addition, our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics emphasizes that all employees, and particularly senior officers, have a responsibility for maintaining financial integrity within our company, consistent with generally

37


accepted accounting principles, and federal and state securities laws. Any senior officer who becomes aware of any incidents involving financial or accounting manipulation or other irregularities, whether by witnessing the incident or being told of it, must report it to our company. Any failure to report such inappropriate or irregular conduct of others is to be treated as a severe disciplinary matter. It is against our company policy to retaliate against any individual who reports in good faith the violation or potential violation of our company's Code of Business Conduct and Ethics by another.

Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 14, 2004 as Exhibit 14.1 to our annual report. We will provide a copy of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics to any person without charge, upon request. Requests can be sent to: Eden Energy Corp., Suite 1680 – 200 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia Canada V6C 3L6.

Board and Committee Meetings

Our board of directors held no formal meetings during the year ended December 31, 2008. All proceedings of the board of directors were conducted by resolutions consented to in writing by all the directors and filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the directors. Such resolutions consented to in writing by the directors entitled to vote on that resolution at a meeting of the directors are, according to the Nevada General Corporate Law and our Bylaws, as valid and effective as if they had been passed at a meeting of the directors duly called and held.

For the year ended December 31, 2008 our only standing committee of the board of directors was our audit committee.

Nomination Process

As of December 31, 2008, we did not effect any material changes to the procedures by which our shareholders may recommend nominees to our board of directors. Our board of directors does not have a policy with regards to the consideration of any director candidates recommended by our shareholders. Our board of directors has determined that it is in the best position to evaluate our company’s requirements as well as the qualifications of each candidate when the board considers a nominee for a position on our board of directors. If shareholders wish to recommend candidates directly to our board, they may do so by sending communications to the president of our company at the address on the cover of this annual report.

Audit Committee

Currently our audit committee consists of our entire board of directors. Effective January 1, 2008 Ralph Stensaker was appointed chair of the audit committee. We currently do not have nominating, compensation committees or committees performing similar functions. There has not been any defined policy or procedure requirements for shareholders to submit recommendations or nomination for directors.

During fiscal 2008 aside from quarterly review teleconferences, there were no meetings held by this committee. The business of the audit committee was conducted though these teleconferences and by resolutions consented to in writing by all the members and filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the audit committee.

38


Audit Committee Financial Expert

Our board of directors has determined that it does have a member of its audit committee that qualifies as an "audit committee financial expert" as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K.

Item 11.    Executive Compensation

Under Rule 13d-3, a beneficial owner of a security includes any person who, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise has or shares: (i) voting power, which includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of shares; and (ii) investment power, which includes the power to dispose or direct the disposition of shares. Certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire the shares (for example, upon exercise of an option) within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares outstanding is deemed to include the amount of shares beneficially owned by such person (and only such person) by reason of these acquisition rights. As a result, the percentage of outstanding shares of any person as shown in this table does not necessarily reflect the person’s actual ownership or voting power with respect to the number of shares of common stock actually outstanding on March 16, 2009. As of March 16, 2009, there were 49,467,856 shares of our company’s common stock issued and outstanding

Includes options to acquire an aggregate of 550,000 shares of common stock exercisable within 60 days.

     
  (6)

Includes options to acquire an aggregate of 350,000 shares of common stock exercisable within 60 days.

Director Independence

We currently act with four (4) directors, consisting of Donald Sharpe, Drew Bonnell, John Martin and Ralph Stensaker.

We have determined that John Martin and Ralph Stensaker are independent directors, as that term is used in Rule 4200(a)(15) of the Rules of National Association of Securities Dealers.

Currently our audit committee consists of our entire board of directors. We currently do not have nominating, compensation committees or committees performing similar functions. There has not been any defined policy or procedure requirements for shareholders to submit recommendations or nomination for directors.

Our board of directors has determined that it does have a member of its audit committee who qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K.

From inception to present date, we believe that the members of our audit committee and the board of directors have been and are collectively capable of analyzing and evaluating our financial statements and understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting.

Item 14.    Principal Accounting Fees and Services

The aggregate fees billed for the most recently completed fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 and for fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 for professional services rendered by the principal accountant for the audit of our annual financial statements and review of the financial statements included in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and services that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for these fiscal periods were as follows:

  Year Ended
   December 31, 2008  December 31, 2007
Audit Fees $40,000 $33,000
Audit Related Fees $24,500 $21,000

45



  Year Ended
   December 31, 2008  December 31, 2007
Tax Fees $6,500 $9,000
All Other Fees Nil Nil
Total $70,000 $63,000

Our board of directors pre-approves all services provided by our independent auditors. All of the above services and fees were reviewed and approved by the board of directors either before or after the respective services were rendered.

Our board of directors has considered the nature and amount of fees billed by our independent auditors and believes that the provision of services for activities unrelated to the audit is compatible with maintaining our independent auditors’ independence.
