Information on the Company

We are an oil and gas exploration company and from the State of Israel, through our wholly owned subsidiary, Adira Energy Corp. (“Adira Energy”), we have been granted three petroleum licenses consisting of one onshore petroleum license, the “Eitan License No. 356” (“Eitan”) and two offshore licenses being the “Gabriella License No. 378” (“Gabriella”) and “Yitzhak License No. 380” (“Yitzhak”) (collectively the “Offshore Licenses”). Our business plan is to carry out exploration activities on Eitan in order to assess existence of commercially exploitable quantities of natural gas as well as minor evaluation work on each of the Offshore Licenses to establish whether exploration is justified. We presently do not produce any oil or gas and do not earn any revenues.

1.2 History and Development of the Company

Name

Our legal and commercial name is AMG Oil Ltd.

Principal Office and Corporate Offices

Our principal and corporate office is located at Suite 901, 30 St. Clair Avenue West, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M4V 3A1. Our telephone number is (416) 250-1955. Our executives’ offices are comprised of approximately 600 square feet and lease cost is $800 per month.

Organizational Structure

We operate:
  • in Canada through the Company and through our wholly owned subsidiary Adira Energy Corp., an Ontario corporation incorporated on April 8, 2009; and

         
  • in Israel, through Adira Energy’s wholly owned subsidiaries, namely:

         
    o

    Adira Energy Israel Ltd., an Israeli corporation; and

    o

    Adira Energy Israel Services Ltd., an Israeli corporation.

    Incorporation and Continuation

    We are a Canadian corporation governed under the Canada Business Corporations Act (the “CBCA”).


    We were incorporated on February 20, 1997 under the name “Trans New Zealand Oil Company” by filing our Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Nevada. We changed our name to “AMG Oil Ltd.” on July 27, 1998. Our fiscal year end is September 30.

    On November 25, 2008, the Company’s shareholders approved the change of our jurisdiction of incorporation from the State of Nevada to the Canadian federal jurisdiction under the CBCA by way of continuation. The Company completed the filing of its Articles of Conversion with the Nevada Secretary of State on November 25, 2008, and the Company’s Articles of Continuance were accepted for filing by Industry Canada effective November 27, 2008. The effect of these filings was to transfer the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Company from the State of Nevada to the Canadian federal jurisdiction under the CBCA. Copies of the Articles of Conversion, Articles of Continuance, Certificate of Continuance and By-Laws, are available on demand.

    The Company’s common shares remain registered under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act after completion of the continuation as a result of the operation of Rule 12g-3 of the Exchange Act. The Company’s current trading symbol on the OTCBB is “AMGOF”.

    Acquisition of Adira Energy Corp.

    We completed the acquisition of Adira Energy, a company incorporated in the Province of Ontario, on August 31, 2009. As a result of the completion of this acquisition, we are the owner of all the issued and outstanding shares of Adira Energy and we have ceased to be a “shell company”, as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act. The acquisition was completed by way of a securities exchange agreement dated August 4, 2009 among the Company, Adira and Dennis Bennie, Ilan Diamond and Alan Friedman, as principal shareholders, and concurrent securities exchange agreements among the Company, and each of the minority shareholders of Adira Energy.

    Immediately prior the acquisition, Adira completed a private placement (“Private Placement”) of 7,600,000 units (“Units”) at a price of U.S. $0.25 per Unit. Sandfire Securities Inc. acted as lead agent to Adira in connection with the Private Placement. Each Unit was comprised of one common share of Adira and one-half of one share purchase warrant. The common shares and share purchase warrants issued by Adira were exchanged concurrently with the closing of the Acquisition. Each resulting share purchase warrant entitles the holder to purchase one additional common share of the Company at the exercise price of U.S.$0.50 per share for a two year period following closing, expiring on August 31, 2011. In connection with the Private Placement, 455,770 compensation warrants were issued to agents which will entitle the holders thereof to purchase an equal amount of common shares of the Company at the exercise price of U.S. $0.25 per common share for a two year period following closing expiring on August 31, 2011.

    As consideration for the outstanding common shares of Adira Energy, the Company issued an aggregate of 39,040,001 common shares of the Company, and now has an aggregate of 62,240,001 issued and outstanding common shares. Additionally, 3,334,000 outstanding stock options and 3,845,000 outstanding warrants of Adira were exchanged for options (the “Options”) and warrants of the Company on an equivalent basis.

    Concurrent with the completion of the Acquisition, Michael Hart, Michael Murphy and John Campbell, resigned from the board of the Company and Dennis Bennie (Chair), Glen Perry, Alan Friedman and Ilan Diamond (CEO) were appointed as the new directors of the Company. It is contemplated that at the next shareholder’s meeting, subject to and upon receipt of shareholder approval, the Company will among other items, change its name to “Adira Energy Ltd.”, will ratify the 2009 Adira Option Plan; ratify the previously granted Options; and increase the number of directors to six.

    Together with pre-existing cash on hand and after deducting commissions payable in connection with the Private Placement, AMG had a cash balance as of September 30, 2009 of approximately U.S.$2.3 million. The Company intends to use its cash available for its drilling program on Eitan.

    Prior Operations of AMG

    We were previously engaged in the acquisition and, formerly, exploration of resource properties.


    We had been inactive for approximately the last four years and were considered a “shell” company within the meaning assigned to that term in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act prior to the acquisition of Adira Energy because we had no operations and our assets consisted solely of cash. In previous years, we had conducted oil and gas exploration activities in New Zealand but withdrew from the permit and assigned our interest to other participants in the permit during the 2003 fiscal year.

    We do not receive any revenue from our discontinued oil and gas operations in New Zealand and had no significant assets, tangible or intangible except for cash on hand. We have no history of earnings and there is no assurance that our business will be profitable. As at September 30, 2008, AMG had an accumulated deficit of $3,169,899. We expect to continue incurring operating losses and accumulating deficits in future periods.

    Reporting Issuer Status under Canadian Securities Laws

    On February 1, 2006, the British Columbia Securities Commission granted our application to be designated as a reporting issuer under the Securities Act (British Columbia). Accordingly, we became subject to the continuous disclosure requirements under the securities laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada.

    Capital Expenditures and Divestitures

    During the last three fiscal years ended September 30, 2009, AMG did not undertake any capital expenditures.

    During the period ended September 30, 2009, the Company completed the purchase of drilling equipment in the amount of US$320,000 plus applicable taxes.

    Our planned capital expenditures for the next twelve months are summarized under “Plan of Operations”. These anticipated expenditures relate to our drilling exploration program in connection with Eitan and basic evaluation of our Offshore Licenses.

    Other than described above, we do not expect any significant purchases of plant and equipment or the hiring of employees within the next twelve months, unless acquired in connection with either the ongoing operation relating to Eitan or the acquisition of a business opportunity which may be identified.

    1.3 Business Overview

    Adira Energy

    Through our wholly owned subsidiary, Adira Energy, we have been granted the following petroleum licenses from the State of Israel:

    • Eitan - covering 31,060 acres (125.7 sq.km.) in the Hula Valley located in Northern Israel. The license was issued in December, 2008 for an initial three year period and may be renewed upon fulfillment of certain conditions for a further four year period;
    • Gabriella - covering 97,000 acres (392 sq. km.) approx. 10km offshore Israel between Netanya and Ashdod. The license was issued in July, 2009 for an initial three year period and may be renewed upon fulfillment of certain conditions for a further four year period; and
    • Yitzhak - covering 31,555 acres (127.7 sq.km) approx. 17km offshore Israel between Hadera and Netanya, directly to the North of and contiguous to Gabriella. The license was issued in October, 2009 for an initial three year period and may be renewed upon fulfillment of certain conditions for a further four year period.

    All of the licenses are subject to 12.5% royalty payable to the government.

    Eitan Petroleum License

    Adira Energy was granted Eitan from the State of Israel on December 15 th 2008 (the “License”). The original term of the License is three years; however, the term is may be extended for a further four years according to Israeli Petroleum Law, 5712 – 1952 (the “ Petroleum Law ”).


    With respect to Eitan over the period, Adira Energy is committed to a work program as follows:

      1.

    Re-process all the seismic lines and submit a conclusive report within six months from date of grant.

      2.

    Prepare a report of gas potential within 12 months from date of grant.

      3.

    Re-enter at least three wells to the shallow and deep layers and examination thereof within 24 months from the date of grant.

      4.

    Drill and test a new well to the depth of at least 900 meters within 30 months from the date of grant.

    The Hula Valley area has experienced some minor shallow gas exploration but with no commercial discovery of any gas field. There are 142 line kilometers of seismic data available for this review.

    License Rights

    Subject to the provisions of the Petroleum Law, the License confers upon Adira Energy the right:
    to explore for petroleum in the licensed area;
    the right to do exploration work outside the licensed area bearing on the petroleum prospects of the licensed area, to such extent and subject to such conditions as the Israeli Petroleum and Mining Commissioner (the Commissioner ”) may prescribe;
    the exclusive right to conduct tests or development drilling in the licensed area and to produce petroleum there from; and
    the right to obtain a lease after having made a discovery in the licensed area.

    Under the Petroleum Law, Adira Energy, as the holder of a petroleum right, is entitled, subject to any other relevant law, to drill and search for water in the area of its petroleum right and to use the water discovered by it either by drilling for water or in any of its other operations and/ or to use any other water situated in the area of its petroleum right to the extent required for its operations, provided that it does not thereby prejudice any person’s right in such water or having the benefit thereof.

    License Requirements

    The License is subject to the following requirements:
    Adira Israel shall commence petroleum exploration within four months from the day on which the License is granted and shall continue the same with due diligence as long as the License is in force.
    Adira Israel shall commence test drilling on the date prescribed therefore in the conditions of the license and not later than two years following the grant of the license and shall continue such drilling with due diligence until he makes a discovery.

    The report shall be accompanied by samples taken of strata penetrated and analyses of such samples and samples of all fluids entering the well with the depths and geological horizons at which they were found and analyses of all such fluids.

    Recommended Exploration Program for Eitan

    The target of our exploration activities will be the Esther field which is located within the area covered by the license. The Esther field has identified shallow gas and coal-bed methane (CBM) from the prior drilling of a total of 14 wells. We have determined based on the recommendations of a technical report that we have received to pursue a re-entry program to work-over and test the shallow gas in two to three shallow gas wells. If the testing of the shallow gas is successful, we plan to then design a development program based on the local market demands for the gas. For the coal-bed methane, it is recommended to test the selected shallow coal seams from 445 to 489 meters in the Esther #2 well with a stimulation program (hydraulic fracture treatment using foam or water). If the testing of the coal bed methane (“CBM”) is successful, a development program can be designed in conjunction with the seismic data acquisition program in order to determine the areal extent of the coal-bed deposits in the area.

    Plan of Operations for Eitan

    The plan of operations and associated cost estimate of the work program (in $U.S.) is as follows:

    Acquire 10 to 20 km of 2-D seismic survey, processing and interpretation
    $ 150,000
    Re-entry, stimulate and test Esther #1 well with TD of 1,293 metres (900 metre section-coal seam)
    $ 225,000
    Re-entry, stimulate and test Esther #2 well with TD of 525 metres (445 to 489 metres-coal seam with reported shut-in pressure of 600 psig)

    $ 220,000

    Re-entry, stimulate and test Esther #3A well with TD of 952 metres (this well was recorded as a gas well)
    $ 150,000
    Drill, complete and test deep CBM well to 950 metres
    $ 660,000
    Drill, complete and test shallow CBM well to 500 metres
    $ 200,000
       
    Total Estimate
    $1,605,000


    The current cost estimate includes mobilization and de-mobilization of a drilling/completion rig to the field in Hula Valley.

    Rights in Land

    The licensed area is situated in the Hula valley in the upper Galilee in Israel and is land owned by the State of Israel. According to the Petroleum Law, where state land is reasonably required by the holder of a petroleum right for a petroleum purpose, he may make a demand from the Israel Lands Authority that the land or any right therein be leased to him on the conditions prescribed by the Petroleum Law and the regulations under the Petroleum Law.

    The licensed area forms part of the lands on which kibbutz Neot Mordechai is situated (in terms of a long term lease agreement between the Kibbutz and the Israel Lands Authority). This is the area on which the Company anticipates focusing its work program for the next 18 months. The result of this situation is that Adira Energy will have to reach an agreement with Kibbutz in order to secure the access to the land in question. Negotiations have commenced in connection with securing this agreement.

    Location of Hula Valley in Israel

    The Hula Valley basin is located in Northern Israel near the head of the Jordan River Valley. The valley is bordered on the west by the Naftali Mountains, to the east by the Golan Heights, to the north by the Metulla High, and to the south by the Korazim High. The Hula Valley is some 25 km long and 6 km wide providing an area of 150 km2 (37,065 acres) at an elevation of approximately 60 meters to 70 meters above sea level. The subject permit area is 125.7 km2 and it covers roughly half of the valley.

    Seismic Data

    Adira Energy has reprocessed 142.9 km of seismic data. The seismic surveys were acquired over the potential hydrocarbon traps in the central and southern part of the Hula Valley Basin. The areas include the central valley in the Neot Mordechai (“NMB”) area where the Esther wells were drilled and the southern Agamon Natural Preserve (“ANB”) area where the Notera, Gonen, and Suzie wells were drilled.

    Exploration History

    The presence of gas was first reported in 1950 while exploring the valley for peat to be used for fuel. Early exploration focused on the lignite stringers. Twenty shallow boreholes were drilled ranging in depths from 72 metres (236 feet) to 175 meters (574 feet). The early exploration also defined three zones or levels: Shallow (surface to 200 meters (656 feet)), Medium (200 metres to 600 metres (656 to 1,968 feet)), and Deep (600 metres to 2,800 metres (1,968 feet to 9,186 feet)). These different levels were explored in four projects as follows:

    1.

    Notera Project between 1980 and 1982 - Notera-1 well, was drilled in 1980, and reached a depth of 505 metres (1,658 feet). Dry gas was discovered between 476 - 482 metres (1,562 – 1,581 feet) and the well was completed for production. The well was connected to Kibbutz Gonen in October, 1981 and 7 MMcf of gas were sold. Total production including testing and flaring was estimated to be 14.7 MMcf. The well died on September 7, 1982 probably due to the influx of water from what appeared to be a strong water drive confirmed by a constant bottom hole pressure of 674 psig throughout the life of the well. The Notera-2 well, also drilled in 1980, penetrated to a depth of 749 meters (2,457 feet). It discovered gas and the well tested in the interval 120 - 175 meters (394 –574 feet). After a long period of testing, it was considered non- commercial due to the large quantities of formation water produced. In 1981, Notera-3 well was drilled to a total depth of 2,786 metres (9,140 feet) but no gas was found. In 1982, Notera-6 well was drilled to a total depth of 560 meters (1,837 feet) but also found no commercial gas.

      
    2.

    Gonen Project in 1983 – 10 shallow wells were drilled based on the well data of Notera 6 because of the multi- stringers of sand between 450 and 550 metres (1,476 and 1,820 feet). None of these wells tested any commercial production rates.




    3.

    Susie Project from 1985 – 1986 – Three shallow wells of less than 150 metres were drilled in this area. Additional two wells were drilled but no success in finding commercial gas.

       
    4.

    ABJAC Operations between 1990 and 2002. Two structural traps were identified resulting in the drilling of the prospect in the Lily 1 well with a total depth of 1,260 metres (4,133 feet) but no commercial gas discovery. The Esther 1 and 2 wells were drilled to a total depth of 1,293 metres (4,244 feet) and 525 meters (1,722 feet) respectively. Both Esther 1 and 2 wells encountered numerous coal seams. Cores were taken to determine reservoir evaluation. Subsequent to the two Esther wells, nine more wells were drilled but no commercial gas discovery but encountered coal

    Exploration Summary

    Most of the wells drilled in this area encountered gas. These wells varied in depth from 146 metres (479 feet) in Esther-4 well to the deepest at 2,786 metres (9,140 feet) in Notera-3 well. During the Notera project, all drilled wells were electrically logged with also conducted composite logs. A total of 42 gas exploration wells have been drilled in the Hula Valley. In addition, 20 unlisted lignite test boreholes were drilled to an average depth of 150 metres (~500 feet) and Naphtha drilled three structural boreholes. There were no absolute open flow tests or any extended tests to indicate or support a commercial discovery. However, coal seams have been identified in some of the wells to provide some data for potential coal-bed methane potentials.

    Esther Field Gas Prospect

    Adira has received a technical report which has identified the Esther field as a gas prospect. A total of 14 wells (1, 2, 3, 3A, 4, 4A, 5, 6, 7, 8, 8A, 11, 12 and 13) were drilled in the field with no commercial gas discovery in all depths. The gas potentials in the Esther field can be divided into three segments according to depths. The shallow depth is around 200 metres (650 feet) between the surface and the top of the Yarda Basalt. The middle depth is the coal beds between 400 and 1,000 metres (1,300 and 3,280 feet). The deep depth is the limestone and fracture basalts from 1,000 to 4,000 metres (3,280 and 13,000 feet). The most prospective is the gas from the coal beds between the 400 and 1,000 metres and will be discussed in the section later. Coal-bed methane (CBM) is seldom commercial below 1,000 metres.

    To determine whether there is any potential of the shallow gas and as part of the committed work program, the technical report recommended the re-entry of the two to three shallow wells in the Esther field to test for commercial gas. The re-entry would require cleaning up the formation, stimulation if required and flow test the well for an extended period of time. We plan to undertake this exploration work as part of our plan of operations, as described above under “Plan of Operations”.

    Equipment

    The Company has completed the purchase and taken possession of a drill rig and associated equipment in order to commence drilling operations on Eitan.

    Offshore Petroleum Licenses

    With respect to the Offshore Licenses, until October 2010, Adira Energy is required to conduct the following work:

      1.

    Collect and study the existing geological and geophysical information available.

      2.

    Reprocess and reinterpret old seismic lines acquired and submit a summary report regarding the potential of each of the licenses.

    The Company is currently formulating a work program in order to complete the above required milestones within the required timeline.


    Letter of Intent

    During September 2009, the Company entered into a Letter of Intent ("LOI") with Brownstone Ventures Inc. ("Brownstone"), a Canadian-based, TSX Venture Exchange listed, energy investment company that holds direct interests in numerous international oil and gas properties. Pursuant to the LOI, Brownstone will have the right to earn a 15% participating interest in any existing or future oil and gas blocks acquired by the Company in offshore Israel for a three year period commencing July 15, 2009 (the "Term") and shall contribute 15% of all costs associated with such projects, in addition to its expertise and industry experience. This right applies to the Offshore Licenses. The LOI also provides that Brownstone and the Company (the "Parties") will work towards an agreement under which both Parties are entitled to participate in certain new Israeli offshore oil and gas exploration and development blocks that the other party may become involved in. The terms of the LOI are subject to Israel governmental regulation, including approval from the Israel Petroleum Commissioner.

    The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value stock options granted and share purchase warrants issued as part of unit offerings. The model requires management to make assumptions, which are subjective and may not be representative of actual results. Changes in assumptions can materially affect estimates of fair values. For the purposes of the calculation and disclosures for share options, the following weighted average assumptions were used:

      2009
       
    Risk-free interest rate 2.19%
    Expected life 4.67 years
    Expected stock price volatility 174.07%
    Expected dividend yield 0.00%

    Share-based compensation charges relating to stock options granted for the 175 day period ended September 30, 2009 was $1,095,833. The shares vest over the next five years, therefore, the expense is will be recognized over that same period. Share-based compensation expense to be recognized is as follows:

    For the period ending September 30      
    2009 $  418,907  
    2010   418,907  
    2011   163,182  
    2012   94,837  
      $  1,095,833  


    For the purposes of the calculation and disclosures for certain share purchase warrants, the following weighted average assumptions were used:

      2009
    Risk-free interest rate 1.32%
    Expected life 1.92 years
    Expected stock price volatility 183.37%
    Expected dividend yield 0.00%

An expense equal to the estimated fair value of the shares issued (CDN $0.05 per share) totaling $485,929, was charged to consulting fees.

    1.11 Critical Accounting Estimates
    Critical accounting estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements include the Company’s estimate of recoverable value of its licenses as well as the value of stock based compensation. Both of these estimates involve considerable judgment and are, or could be, affected by significant factors that are out of the Company’s control.

    1.12 Changes in Accounting Policies
    The Company has not changed its accounting policies during the period ended September 30, 2009.

    1.13 Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, GST receivable and trade payables. Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant risk arising from the financial instruments. The fair value of these financial instruments approximates their fair value because of the short-term maturities of these items.

    Balance 62,640,001 $3,478,894


    1.15 Risks
    The Company’s business is subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties. The exploration and development of mineral properties entails significant financial risk. Significant expenditures are required to assess a property and its mineralization.

    1.16 Disclosure Control and Procedures
    The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are responsible for certifying certain matters relating to the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures that have been established to provide reasonable assurance that material information used internally and disclosed externally is reliable and timely.

    1.17 Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the design of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting as of the end of the period covered by the annual filings and have concluded that the design is sufficient to provide such reasonable assurance.

    1.18 Price Volatility
    Any future earnings will be directly related to the price of oil and gas. Such prices have fluctuated over time and are affected by numerous factors beyond the control of the Company.

    1.19 Environment
    Operations, development and exploration projects could potentially be affected by environmental laws and regulations. The environmental standards continue to change and the trend is to a longer, more complex process. Although the Company continuously reviews environmental matters and undertakes to comply with changes as expeditiously as possible, there is no assurance that existing or future environmental regulation will not materially adversely affect the Company’s financial condition, liquidity and results of operation. While certain environmental issues have been assessed and strategies based on best practices adopted, there can be no assurance that unforeseen events will not occur which could have a material adverse effect on the viability of the Company’s business and affairs.

    1.20 Government Regulations
    The Company’s operations are subject to significant regulation and laws which control not only the exploration and mining of mineral properties but also the possible effects of such activities upon the environment. Changes in current legislation or future legislation could result in additional expenses, restrictions and delays.

    1.21 Key Personnel
    The Company’s future success is dependent in large part upon the continued services of certain key personnel. Failure to retain such personnel or failure to attract qualified management in the future, could adversely affect the Company’s ability to manage its operations.
