PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

The following information is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed information appearing in this prospectus or incorporated by reference herein. You should review carefully the entire contents of this prospectus and the financial projections delivered herewith and consult legal and other professional advisors having relative expertise. Care should be taken to read each term in the context of the particular provisions of this prospectus in which such term appears.

THE COMPANY

Barola Oil & Gas Co. Inc. was incorporated on May 29, 2001 under the laws of the State of Nevada. Our offices are located at 852 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6C 1C8, ph: (310) 795-7384.

On April 1, 2003, we entered into an agreement with Production Specialties Co. Inc., a California corporation to purchase between a Five (5%) percent and Fifty (50%) percent interest in the current ownership by Production Specialties Co. Inc. in a property lying in and around Madera County, California known as "Triangle T Ranch". The terms of the agreement contemplate the payment by us to Production Specialties Co. Inc. of a deposit in the amount of $25,000 toward the total purchase price, which purchase price is dependent on what percentage we elect to purchase. The purchase price is set at $34,000 per percentage point purchased. Therefore, if the minimum of 5% is purchased, the purchase price is $170,000 and if the maximum of 50% is purchased, the purchase price is $1,700,000.

We currently employ 1 full-time person. This individual is involved in our daily activities.

We have received a going concern opinion from our auditors because we have not generated revenues, have not yet commenced operations and our net loss from inception to December 31, 2003 is $38,603.

THE OFFERING

Securities Offered   

10,925,000 shares of Barola common stock. 3,000,000 of the shares will be offered by Barola on a self-underwritten basis. 7,925,000 of the shares may also be sold from time to time by selling shareholders.

Offering price   

The offering price for all shares of common stock is $0.15 per share. In the event Barola either sells all 3,000,000 shares offered by it or terminates the offering of the 3,000,000 shares, if a public market for our common shares develops, then the actual price of the common stock to be sold thereafter by the selling shareholders may be determined by prevailing market prices at the time of sale. Selling shareholders may sell at the market price only after the shares are quoted on the Over The Counter Bulletin Board or on some exchange. However, shares sold by selling shareholders who are also affiliates of Barola shall retain the offering price of $0.15 per share. Shares in this category total 3,000,000 of the 7,925,000 offered by selling shareholders.

   


Minimum number of shares to be sold in this offering    

None.

Use of Proceeds   

If all shares offered by Barola are sold, net proceeds from this offering will be approximately $425,000 and will be used by Barola for working capital and to develop mineral properties or to purchase interests in oil and gas properties. If underwriters are engaged to sell the offering, net offering proceeds will total approximately $380,000. Barola will not receive any proceeds from the sale of common stock by the selling shareholders.

Best Efforts Offering   

The offering is being sold by our president on a self-underwritten efforts basis. Management may enter into an underwriting agreement for this offering at a later date.

This offering will expire   

This is the initial public offering will close whenever all of the shares are sold, or 90 days after the effective of this prospectus, whichever is sooner. The directors have discretion to extend the offering period for an additional 90 days, if necessary.

RISK FACTORS

Any investment in the common stock involves a high degree of risk. Prospective investors should carefully consider the following information about these risks, together with the other information contained in this prospectus, before they decide whether to buy any Shares. Prospective Investors should carefully consider the following factors concerning the business of Barola Oil & Gas Co. Inc. and the offering, and should consult independent advisors as to the technical, tax, business and legal considerations regarding an investment in shares of our common stock.

Because all of our common stock is being registered for resale, including all of the shares held by our two officers and directors, our business could be impacted if our officers and directors, who own an aggregate of 37.8% of our common stock, sell their common stock to a point where they would lose the ability to control the direction of the company through the voting of those sold shares. In that event, the new shareholders could vote their shares to, among other things, change the manner in which the business is conducted, remove the current board of directors, remove the current officers, sell the business, or close down the business, any one of which events could cause the shareholders to lose some or all of their invested capital.

There is no active trading market for our common shares therefore investors may not be able to sell their shares. There is currently no active trading market for our common shares, and as such a market may not develop or be sustained. This poses a risk to investors because they may not be able to sell their shares when they need to for various reasons including the financing of their personal living expenses or in case of emergency.

Shareholders may experience dilution of ownership. We are authorized to issue up to 100,000,000 common shares. We have the authority to issue more of the shares, and to determine the rights, preferences and privileges of such shares, without the consent of any of the shareholders. Consequently, the shareholders may experience more dilution in their ownership in the future. Purchasers of shares will experience immediate and substantial dilution in the net tangible book value per share of their investment in the shares.

Because we are conducting a primary offering at the same time that current shareholders are offering their shares, the resulting competition could impair our ability to raise adequate financing. We are offering 3,000,000 shares of our common stock at an offering price of $0.15 per share concurrent with a selling shareholder offering. Our ability to raise adequate financing could be impaired if purchasers of our common stock purchase from the selling shareholders rather than our primary offering.

Risks Related to The Business.

Because we have only recently commenced business operations, we face a high risk of business failure. Because, to date, we have only acquired an option to participate in Triangle T Ranch, we lack a sustained operating history sufficient to give confidence that we will succeed as a business enterprise. Potential purchasers of our stock should be aware of the difficulties normally encountered by new oil and gas companies and the high rate of failure of such enterprises. These risks include, without limitation, the fact that the initial investment in properties may use available start-up capital and not provide producing oil and/or gas properties. Unless some of our initial investments provide producing oil and/or gas properties, our business will most likely fail.

   


 
We expect to incur operating losses for the foreseeable future. Since inception through to June 30, 2004, we incurred a net loss of ($44,139). Since we expect to continue to invest in unproven properties, it is possible that we will not generate revenue sufficient to pay our expenses for the foreseeable future. We recognize that if we, at some point in the future, are not able to generate revenue from the operations of our properties sufficient to cover our expenses, we will not be able to earn profits or continue operations and any purchasers of our common stock will lose their investment.

If capital is not available to us to expand our business operations, we will not be able to pursue our business plan. We will require substantial additional capital to acquire the optioned interest in Triangle T Ranch and additional properties and to participate in the development of those properties. Cash flows from operations, to the extent available, will be used to fund these expenditures. We intend to seek additional capital from loans from current shareholders and from public and private equity offerings. Our ability to access capital will depend on our success in participating in properties that are successful in exploring for and producing oil and gas at profitable prices. It will also be dependent upon the status of the capital markets at the time such capital is sought. Should sufficient capital not be available, the development of our business plan could be delayed and, accordingly, the implementation of our business strategy would be adversely affected. In such event it would not be likely that investors would obtain a profitable return on their investments or a return of their investments.

Since our officers and directors have no previous oil and gas experience, investors cannot rely on our officers and directors as being experts in the area of oil and gas exploration and production which is our business focus. Our officers and directors have no previous oil and gas experience. All business decisions made by them regarding oil and gas exploration and production will be in reliance on the advice of others due to this lack of experience. If reliable advice is not available, it is unlikely the business will succeed.

There may be substantial doubt whether we will continue as a going concern. The Independent Auditor’s Report to our audited financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2003 indicates that there are a number of factors that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Such factors identified are: we have incurred a net loss since inception; we have not attained profitable operations; and we are dependent upon obtaining adequate financing to fulfill our development activities. Unless we deal successfully with each factor identified by our auditors, we may not be able to continue as a going concern and investors will lose their investments.

We are required to indemnify our officers and directors in certain circumstances for claims against them that may bear significant cost therefore reducing our profitability and our ability to continue our business. We are required by section 78.7502 of the Nevada Revised Statutes to indemnify our officers, directors, employees and agents against liability to the company in any proceeding in which such person wholly prevails on the merits. Generally, we may indemnify our officers and directors against such liability if the officer or director acted in good faith believing his or her actions to be in the best interests of the company. These provisions may limit our recovery for any claims against our officers and directors.

Risks Related to The Industry

Oil and gas exploration involves a high degree of risk, and as a result, we may never become commercially viable. Oil and gas exploration involves a high degree of risk. The project in which we hold an interest or the properties in which we may hold an interest in the future may not

   


contain commercial quantities of oil and gas. Hazards such as unusual or unexpected formations and other conditions are involved. Applicable projects may become subject to liability for pollution, fire, explosion, blowouts, cratering and oil spills against which we cannot insure or against which we may elect not to insure. Such events could result in substantial damage to oil and gas wells, producing facilities and other property and/or result in personal injury. The payment of such liabilities would have a material, adverse effect on the revenue streams we were contemplating from that project.

Depending upon the significance of the particular project when compared with our total holdings at any given time, any such liability could have a material adverse effect upon our business operations.

Volatility of oil and gas prices and markets could make it difficult for us to obtain and sustain profitability and less likely investors in our common stock will receive a return on their investment. Our ability to obtain and sustain profitability is substantially dependent on prevailing prices for natural gas and oil. The amounts of and price obtainable for our oil and gas production will be affected by market factors beyond our control. If these factors are not favorable over time to our financial interests, it is likely that owners of our common stock will lose their investments. Such factors include:
 
   -      the extent of domestic production;
   -      the level of imports of foreign oil and gas;
   -      the general level of market demand on a regional, national and worldwide basis;
   -      domestic and foreign economic conditions that determine levels of industrial production;
   -      political events in foreign oil-producing regions; and
   -      variations in governmental regulations and tax laws or the imposition of new governmental requirements upon the oil and gas industry.
 
Prices for oil and gas are subject to wide fluctuations in response to relatively minor changes in supply of and demand for oil and gas, market uncertainty and a variety of additional factors.

Because estimates of oil and gas reserves require substantial judgment by the engineer, there is a risk that the estimate may not be accurate resulting in less reserves available for future production. Estimates of our proved developed oil and gas reserves appearing in our financial statements are based on reserve reports of a registered engineer. The estimation of reserves requires substantial judgment on the part of a registered engineer, resulting in imprecise determinations. The accuracy of any reserve estimate depends on the quality of available data as well as engineering and geological interpretation and judgment. Actual future production, revenues, geologic success, and quantities of recoverable oil and gas resources may vary substantially from those assumed in the estimates, may result in revisions to such estimates and could materially affect the estimated quantities and related value of reserves set forth in our financial statements. If estimates with respect to the property in which we have an interest do not prove to be accurate, we may not be able to make a profitable return on the property resulting in a loss of a portion or all of any investor’s investment.

There is a high degree of risk that unproved oil and gas properties will not turn out to be commercially viable. Exploration and development of oil and gas resources involve a high degree of risk that no commercial production will be obtained or that the production will be insufficient to recover drilling and completion costs. The cost of drilling, completing and operating wells is often uncertain. Drilling operations on the property in which we have an

   


interest or on properties in which we may, in the future, hold an interest may be curtailed, delayed or cancelled as a result of numerous factors including title problems, weather conditions, compliance with governmental requirements and shortages or delays in the delivery of equipment. Furthermore, completion of a well does not assure a profit on the investment or a recovery of drilling, completion and operating costs. If we do not obtain a profitable return on the property in which we hold an interest or on properties in which we may invest in the future, it is likely that investors will lose their investments.

We must incur the costs of environmental and other government regulation, which costs may significantly burden us. Oil and gas operations similar to the one in which we have an interest are affected by extensive regulation pursuant to various federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the exploration for and development, production, gathering and marketing of oil and gas. Oil and gas operations are also subject to numerous laws and regulations governing the discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise relating to environmental protection. New laws or regulations or new interpretations of existing laws and regulations may also increase the cost of regulatory compliance. If properties or oil and gas production in which we have an interest or may have an interest in the future do not comply with applicable regulation, or if industrial accident occurs which creates significant liability under regulations concerning the environment, our operations will be adversely affect and investors in our common stock will likely lose all of their investment.


CAUTIONARY STATEMENT ON FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain of the statements contained in this prospectus, including, without limitation, those described under the sections entitled "Risk Factors", "Use of Proceeds" and "Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" constitute "forward looking statements". These statements can be identified by forward-looking words such as "believes", "estimates", "could", "possibly", "probably", "anticipates", "estimates", "projects", "expects", "may", "should", "goal", "plan", "intend", or other variations thereon or similar words are not historical facts but are statements of future expectations and other forward-looking statements that are based on our current views and assumptions and involve known and unknown risks that may differ materially from those expressed or implied in such statements. Actual results, performance or events may differ materially from those in such statements due to various factors beyond our control which include, without limitation:

      (a)     general economic conditions;
      (b)     performance of the energy markets;
      (c)     the use of oil and gas as primary energy sources will continue to expand;
      (d)     North American producers will continue to compete with third world producers;

      (d)     changes in political environment; and
      (e)     competition.

USE OF PROCEEDS

The net proceeds we will receive from the sale of the shares of common stock offered by us will be approximately $380,000, if the maximum numbers of shares are sold, after deducting offering expenses of $25,000 and if commissions are paid to underwriters. If the offering is self-underwritten, net proceeds will total approximately $425,000 if all shares offered by Barola are sold.

   


The principal purpose of this offering is to increase our working capital in order for us to proceed with the execution of our business plan. Our management will have significant flexibility in applying the net proceeds of the offering. Pending any use, the net proceeds of this offering will be placed in an interest bearing bank account.

The actual expenditures of the proceeds of the offering may differ substantially from the estimated use of proceeds. The actual expenditures of the proceeds of this offering will be determined by our board of directors in the best interests of advancing our business.

We expect to use the net proceeds from this offering as follows:

Working capital will be used to support our business operations and pay professional fees which include fees to our legal counsel, our auditors, and other consultants that we may contract to provide services to us. We will prioritize the use of the proceeds to first provide us with adequate working capital and then use the remaining proceeds to purchase the Triangle T Ranch project and/or other oil and gas interests that may be later identified.

DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE

The offering price of the 10,925,000 common shares being offered by the shareholders has been determined arbitrarily and has no relationship to any established criteria of value, such as book value or earnings per share. Additionally, because we have no significant operating history and have not generated any revenues to date, the price of the common shares is not based on past earnings, nor is the price of the common shares indicative of current market value for the assets owned by us. No valuation or appraisal has been prepared for our business.

An investment in this offering will undergo immediate dilution when compared with the net tangible assets of Barola. The following table illustrates the per share dilution in net tangible book value to new investors if 100% of the 3,000,000 shares offered by Barola are sold, if 50% of the 3,000,000 shares are sold, if 25% of the 3,000,000 shares are sold and if 10% of the 3,000,000 shares are sold. Calculations are based on 7,925,000 capital shares outstanding at June 30, 2004, and at the different levels of the offering sold as indicated after the deduction of offering expenses and assuming all shares of Barola sold are on a self-underwritten basis with no commissions paid. The 7,925,000 shares to be sold by the selling shareholders is common stock that is currently issued and outstanding. Accordingly, there will be no dilution as a result of the sale of those shares.

Purchasers of the Shares will participate in dividends based upon the number of shares held as of a dividend record date. See "Description of Capital Stock."

Our By-Laws provide that our Board of Directors may, from time to time, declare, and we may pay, dividends on our outstanding shares in the manner and upon the terms and conditions provided by law. See "Risk Factors."

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. Any future payment of dividends will be made at the discretion of our Board of Directors based upon conditions then existing, including earnings, financial condition and capital requirements as well as such economic and other conditions as our Board of Directors may deem relevant.

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

The following list of selling stockholders includes: (i) the number of shares of common stock currently beneficially owned by each selling stockholder; (ii) the number of shares being offered for resale by each stockholder; and (iii) the number and percentage of shares of common stock to be held by each selling stockholder after completion of this offering. The registration of the shares does not necessarily mean that the selling stockholders will sell all or any of their shares.

The selling stockholders’ table consists of shareholders that received shares as consideration for services performed for the Company and shareholders that purchased shares pursuant to private offerings, dated December 15, 2002, January 1, 2003 and April 23, 2003, which satisfied the requirements of Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933 ("Regulation S"). The first offering sold shares at $0.001 per share and the second and third offerings sold shares at $0.005 per share.

On or about December 15, 2002, pursuant to Regulation S, we authorized the issuance of 2,500,000 common shares to our President, Mr. Henry Starek, at the price of $0.001 per common share for total gross proceeds to us of $2,500. Between January 1, 2003 and January 31, 2003, pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Regulation S, we accepted subscription agreements from investors to purchase 4,925,000 of our common shares, which were offered at a purchase price of $0.005 per common share for total gross proceeds to us of $24,625. The investors that purchased shares of our common stock in this exempt offering are listed in the table below with the exception of Mr. Starek and Mr. Kilburn.

On April 25, 2003, our Director, Duane Kilburn was issued 500,000 common shares pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Regulation S, at the cost of $0.005 per share for a total value of $2,500 in consideration for his services performed as a director of the Company for the period from April 25, 2002 to April 25, 2003.

Regulation S sets forth conditions under which securities offerings may take place outside of the U.S. without registration under the Securities Act of 1933. Regulation S is available only for offers and sales of securities outside the United States. There are a number of conditions that must be met before a distribution of the shares of a U.S. company can take place offshore. Several of these conditions are discussed below. First, each purchaser of the securities must certify that it is not a U.S. person. Second, no directed selling efforts are made by the issuer in the United States. Third, the securities must contain a legend describing the Regulation S restrictions. Fourth, the issuer is required to refuse to register any transfer not made in accordance with

   


 
Regulation S. Lastly, each confirmation of a purchase of such shares must contain a notice to the purchaser describing the Regulation S restrictions.

The sale price of our common stock was the result of negotiations between the respective purchasers and the Company and was not based on book value or our assets.

As of September 10, 2004, there were 7,925,000 shares of our common stock outstanding. None of our selling shareholders in this prospectus are broker-dealers or affiliates of broker-dealers.

The named party has sole voting and investment power over all shares or rights to those shares. None of the selling stockholders is a broker-dealer or an affiliate of a broker-dealer. With the exception of Henry Starek, President and Duane Kilburn, director, none of the selling shareholders:
 
        -      has had any material relationship with the Company other than as a shareholder at any time; or
        -      has ever been an officer or director of the Company or its affiliates.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Shares offered by Barola

The following officer and director is selling the common stock being offered by Barola through this prospectus:

Name of Officer/Director
Position
 
Henry Starek
President and Director

Mr. Starek is not registered as a broker-dealer under the Securities Act of 1934 and is relying on Rule 3a4-1 under the 1934 Act to allow him to sell the shares as an officer of Barola. We believe that Mr. Starek is qualified under this rule because:
  • he is not subject to a statutory disqualification as set forth in section 3(a)(39) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934;
  11   

 
  • he will not be compensated for his participation in the offering by the payment of commissions or other remuneration based directly or indirectly on the sale of the offering;
  • he has never been and will not be at the time of his participation in the offering an associated person of a broker or dealer;
  • he has never participated before in selling an offering for any issuer; and
  • he will perform substantial duties for Barola other than in connection with the sale of the shares.
In order to make the necessary sales, this officer and director plans to directly contact selected individuals and entities with whom he has a prior relationship and whom he believes will have an interest in the offering. Management, however, may enter into an underwriting agreement for this offering at a later date and at that time pay a commission to any participating underwriters. If we enter into an underwriting agreement after this offering becomes effective, we will file with the SEC a post-effective amendment identifying the underwriter and providing material information about the underwriting arrangements.

We are therefore offering the shares on a self-underwritten basis. There is no minimum number of shares required to be sold in this offering.

In order to subscribe for shares, an investor must complete and execute the form of subscription agreement attached to this prospectus and deliver the executed subscription agreement to us together with payment of the purchase price for the shares payable to Barola Incorporated.

We may reject or accept any subscription in whole or in part at our discretion. We will not establish any escrow account and all funds received in this offering may be used immediately upon receipt.

Upon our acceptance of a subscription agreement, we will deliver to each subscriber a copy of the fully executed agreement evidencing the number of shares subscribed for. If we do not accept any subscription or any portion of a subscription, the amount of the subscription not accepted will be promptly returned by us to the subscriber.

Shares offered by selling shareholders

This prospectus is part of a registration statement that enables the selling shareholders to sell their shares. We have advised the selling shareholders that they shall only be permitted to sell their shares in jurisdictions where it is lawful to sell such securities. Thus, the selling shareholders will be permitted to sell their shares in foreign countries if they comply with all rules and regulations of that particular jurisdiction. Additionally, the selling shareholders shall be permitted to sell their shares in the United States only upon this registration statement becoming effective. Furthermore, the selling shareholders' selling efforts shall be limited to unsolicited brokerage transactions that comply with the provisions of Regulation M.

Generally, under Regulation M, selling shareholders are prohibited during a distribution from bidding, purchasing, or attempting to induce others to bid for or purchase securities being issued in a distribution. On exception to the general rule is to the selling shareholders are permitted to solicit offers to buy only those securities that are being distributed. Unsolicited purchases that are not effected from or through an inter-dealer quotation system are also permitted.
 
  12   


The selling shareholders may sell some or all of their common stock in one or more transactions, including block transactions:
 
     1.     On such public markets or exchanges as the common stock may from time to time be trading;
     2.     In privately negotiated transactions;
     3.     In short sales; or
     4.     In any combination of these methods of distribution.

The sales price to the public is fixed at $0.15 per share until such time as the shares of our common stock become traded on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board or another exchange. Although we intend to apply for trading of our common stock on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board, public trading of our common stock may never materialize. If our common stock becomes traded on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board or another exchange, then the sales price to the public will vary according to the selling decisions of each selling shareholder and the market for our stock at the time of resale. In these circumstances, the sales price to the public may be:
 
     1.     The market price of our common stock prevailing at the time of sale;
     2.     A price related to such prevailing market price of our common stock; or
     3.     Such other price as the selling shareholders determine from time to time.
 
 
It should be noted that 3,000,000 of the 7,925,000 shares offered by selling shareholders are held by affiliates of Barola. Henry Starek, our President, owns 2,500,000 of such shares and Duane Kilburn, Director, owns the remaining 500,000 of such shares. The offering price of these 3,000,000 shares will not change with prevailing market prices and will remain at $0.15 per share for the duration of the offering.

The shares may also be sold in compliance with the Securities and Exchange Commission's Rule 144.

The selling shareholders may also sell their shares directly to market makers acting as agents in unsolicited brokerage transactions. Any broker or dealer participating in such transactions as agent may receive a commission from the selling shareholders, or, if they act as agent for the purchaser of such common stock, from such purchaser. The selling shareholders will likely pay the usual and customary brokerage fees for such services. If applicable, the selling shareholders may distribute shares to one or more of their partners who are unaffiliated with us. Such partners may, in turn, distribute such shares as described above.

We are bearing all costs relating to the registration of the common stock. The selling shareholders, however, will pay any commissions or other fees payable to brokers or dealers in connection with any sale of their common stock.

The selling shareholders must comply with the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act in the offer and sale of the common stock. In particular, during such times as the selling shareholders may be deemed to be engaged in a distribution of the common stock, and therefore be considered to be an underwriter, they must comply with applicable law and may, among other things:
 
     1.     Not engage in any stabilization activities in connection with our common stock;

  13   


     2.     Furnish each broker or dealer through which common stock may be offered, such copies of this prospectus, as amended from time to time, as may be
             required by such broker or dealer; and
 
  3.     Not bid for or purchase any of our securities or attempt to induce any person to purchase any of our securities other than as permitted under the
          Securities Exchange Act.
 
We estimate that we will incur costs in the amount of approximately $2,000 that are solely attributable to the selling shareholder offering. The estimated combined costs of both the selling shareholder offering and our primary offering are listed below.

  Securities and Exchange Commission registration fee
  $ 208
  Transfer Agent Fees
  $ 1,500
  Accounting fees and expenses
  $ 7,500
  Legal fees and expenses
  $ 9,792
  Blue Sky fees and expenses
  $ 5,000
  Printing and Engraving Expenses
  $ 1,000
 
  Total (1)
  $25,000
  ======

(1) If underwriters are used to sell the offering, they will be paid commissions of up to 10% creating additional offering expenses of $45,000 if all shares offered by Barola are sold.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are not aware of any legal proceedings against us. We may however be involved, from time to time, in various legal proceedings and claims incident to the normal conduct of our business.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the small business issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the small business issuer has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

History and Background
 
Barola Oil & Gas Co. Inc. was incorporated on May 29, 2001 under the laws of the State of Nevada. Our offices are located at 852 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6C 1C8. (310) 795-7384.
 
On May 29, 2001, we filed our Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Nevada, in which among other things, the Board of Directors was elected as follows: Pamela Starek. On the same date, Ms. Starek was appointed to the following positions: President, Secretary, Treasurer and Chair of the Board. On March 20, 2002, Ms. Starek tendered her resignation from these positions and Mr. Steve Burwell was appointed to all positions. On April 25, 2002, Mr. Burwell tendered his resignation from these positions and Mr. Henry Starek was appointed to the following positions: President, secretary, treasurer, chair of the board, principle financial officer and principle accounting officer. Mr. Starek is the father of Pamela Starek, our former President. On the same date, Mr. Duane Kilburn was appointed as a Director. Our authorized capital consists of 100,000,000 common shares with $0.001 par value. On or about December 15, 2002, pursuant to Regulation S, we authorized the issuance of 2,500,000 common shares to our President, Mr. Henry Starek, at the price of $0.001 per common share for total gross proceeds to us of $2,500.
 
On December 20, 2002, we entered into a loan facility agreement with Mr. Starek, wherein we were given access to the sum of $100,000.00 to be drawn down upon and paid back at our discretion. The agreement provides us with the ability to borrow up to $100,000 in any amounts we determine. All amounts drawn down pursuant to this agreement and remaining unpaid shall bear interest at the rate of 8% per annum. The amounts advanced, if any, from time to time are unsecured and repayable on demand. To date, no funds have been accessed under this agreement.

On December 20, 2002, our Board of Directors authorized us to proceed, on a best efforts basis, with an offering of up to 7,500,000 of our common shares through a Regulation S offering to non-US residents at the price of $0.005 per share with a view to raising operating capital for the Company.

Between January 1, 2003 and January 31, 2003, pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Regulation S, we accepted subscription agreements from certain investors to purchase 4,925,000 of our common shares which were offered at a purchase price of $0.005 per common share for total gross proceeds to us of $24,625. The investors that purchased shares of our common stock in this exempt offering are listed in the selling shareholder table with the exception of Mr. Starek and Mr. Kilburn. By a resolution of the Board of Directors, we terminated the offering at January 31, 2003.

On or about February 1, 2003, we entered into arm’s length negotiations with Production Specialties Co, Inc., a California corporation, to acquire an option to purchase an interest in a resource property. On April 1, 2003, we entered into a definitive agreement with Production Specialties Co. Inc., granting us an option to purchase between a Five (5%) percent and Fifty (50%) percent interest in the current ownership by Production Specialties Co. Inc. in a property lying in and around Madera County, California known as "Triangle T Ranch." On or about February 1, 2003, we paid the sum of $25,000 to Production Specialties Co., Inc. under this option agreement which sum will be applied by Production Specialties Co., Inc. to the total

  18   


purchase price of the acquisition, which purchase price is dependant on what percentage of the project we elect to purchase. The funds used to purchase this option came from sales of our common stock as described herein and from loans advanced by our former President, Ms. Pamela Starek. The deposit of $25,000 is non-refundable in the event that we do not make a purchase from Production Specialties Co., Inc. The purchase price is set at $34,000 per percentage point purchased. Therefore, if the minimum of 5% is purchased, the purchase price is $170,000 and if the maximum of 50% is purchased, the purchase price is $1,700,000. None of our current or former management has any affiliations or relationships with Production Specialties Co., Inc.

On April 25, 2003, Mr. Duane Kilburn, director, was issued 500,000 common shares under the exemption from registration provided for in Regulation S at the cost of $0.005 per share for total value of $2,500. These shares were issued as compensation for Mr. Kilburn’s service to the Company as a member of the board of directors from April 25, 2002 to April 25, 2003.

We currently employ one person, namely Henry Starek, who is responsible for all our business activities. Mr. Kilburn sits as a member on the board of directors.

Description of Business and Properties

We are engaged in the exploration, development, acquisition and operation of oil and gas properties. Because oil and gas exploration and development requires significant capital and because our assets and resources are limited, we participate in the oil and gas industry through the purchase of small interests in either producing wells or oil and gas exploration and development projects. To date, we have acquired a working interest in one such project, the Triangle T Ranch Project.

Triangle T Ranch Project

The Triangle T Ranch Project is a grouping of four producing natural gas wells in an oil and gas field consisting of approximately 14 square miles of lands leased and shot by a 2 dimensional seismic program in 2001, the entire field being known as the Merrill Avenue Gas Field. Within the Triangle T Ranch Project, there are currently four gas producing wells, namely Triangle T 1-28, 1-29, 1-33 and 2-33. In each of Triangle T 1-28 and 2-33, there are two zones: the zone which is currently producing natural gas and the proved non-producing behind pipe zone. The term behind pipe refers to additional pay or zones that contain additional reserves in them and will be opened at a later date. The additional reserves behind pipe are accessed once the currently producing zone is depleted of gas or when it becomes unfeasible to extract gas from the currently producing zone, whichever first occurs. This process is known in the industry as Re-completion. In re-completion, the current producing zones are shut off and the behind pipe zones are opened. It is in these wells that we have an option to purchase a portion.

Originally, the concept for the Triangle T project was to gain structure within the shallower wells previously drilled within the last ten years. After review of the 2 dimensional seismic data, several horizons were discovered and prepared for drilling, namely Triangle T 1-28, 1-29, 1-33 and 2-33. These wells have been producing a combined 3,500 MCF (thousand cubic feet) per day and continue to do so. These wells have heating value range between 630 British Thermal Units (BTU) and 780 BTU. These wells and this property in general has longevity and based on the successes in this area to date along with an anticipated future 3 Dimensional Seismic program, additional unfound gas reserves are expected to be found.
 
  19   


 
The net present value for the specified interests as of March 1, 2004 is estimated to be $1,247,000 when undiscounted and $951,000 and $760,000 when discounted at 5 and 10 percent respectively. Slightly over 40% of these values are derived from the proved non-producing behind pipe reserves. The gross remaining recoverable natural gas reserves are estimated to be 8,940,347 MCF of which approximately 3,467,205 MCF are behind pipe. The estimated net reserves of natural gas is 367,749 MCF of which 149,037 MCF are behind pipe. As of March 2004, the gross wellhead natural gas price was $3.00 per MCF.
 
The existing and future wells are operated by Lario Oil and Gas (the "Operator"). As such, we will not be considered the operator of these wells. The Operator markets each non-operator’s share of gas production from the wells for sale and deducts all royalty burdens and operating expenses prior to the distribution of revenues. We are not responsible for any expenses incurred by, or on behalf of the Operator, in respect of the existing wells, production, marketing, shooting additional 2 or 3 dimensional seismic nor will we be responsible for any of these item until such time as we exercise our Option to Purchase an interest. At that time, we will be responsible for our proportionate share of such expenses and will receive our proportionate share of all income realized from this project.

Competition

The oil and gas industry is highly competitive in all its phases. Competition is particularly intense with respect to the acquisition of interests in desirable undeveloped crude oil and natural gas properties, which is the focus of our business. The principal competitive factors in the acquisition of such undeveloped crude oil and natural gas properties include the staff and data necessary to identify, investigate and purchase such properties, and the financial resources necessary to acquire interests in such properties. We compete with major and independent crude oil and natural gas companies for properties. Many of these competitors have financial and other resources substantially greater than ours.

Our only intention thus far is to participate as an owner of interests in properties such that we are not involved in the actual operation of the extraction operations. As such, all competitive factors dealing with the drilling, extraction, marketing, sales and shipping of oil and/or natural gas do not apply to us at this time.

Regulatory Background

The federal government and various state and local governments have adopted laws and regulations regarding the protection of human health and the environment. These laws and regulations may require the acquisition of a permit by operators before drilling commences, prohibit drilling activities on certain lands lying within wilderness areas, wetlands, or where pollution might cause serious harm, and impose substantial liabilities for pollution resulting from drilling operations, particularly with respect to operations in onshore and offshore waters or on unsubmerged lands. These laws and regulations may increase the costs of drilling and operating wells. Because these laws and regulations change frequently, the costs of compliance with existing and future environmental regulations cannot be predicted with certainty.

The transportation and certain sales of natural gas in interstate commerce are heavily regulated by agencies of the federal government. Production of any oil and gas by properties in which we may, from time to time, have an interest, will be affected to some degree by state regulations. States have statutory provisions regulating the production and sale of oil and gas, including

  20   


provisions regarding deliverability. Such statutes, and the regulations promulgated in connection therewith, are generally intended to prevent waste of oil and gas and to protect correlative rights to produce oil and gas between owners of a common reservoir. State regulatory authorities may also regulate the amount of oil and gas produced by assigning allowable rates of production to each well or proration unit.

Any exploration or production on Federal land will have to comply with the Federal Land Management Planning Act which has the effect generally of protecting the environment. Any exploration or production on private property whether owned or leased will have to comply with the Endangered Species Act and the Clean Water Act. The costs of complying with environmental concerns under any of these acts varies on a case by case basis. In many instances the cost can be prohibitive to development. Environmental costs associated with a particular project must be factored into the overall cost evaluation of whether to proceed with the project.

There are no costs to us at the present time in connection with compliance with environmental laws. Costs, however, could occur at any time through industrial accident or in connection with a new project. Costs could extend into the millions of dollars for which we could be totally liable. In the event of liability, we would be entitled to contribution from other owners so that our percentage share of a particular project would be the percentage share of our liability on that project. However, other owners may not be willing or able to share in the cost of the liability. Even if the liability is limited to our percentage share, any significant liability would wipe out our assets and resources.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

We have received a going concern opinion from our auditors because we have not generated any revenues. Our deficit as of June 30, 2004 was $44,139. The discussion below provides an overview of our operations, discusses our results of operations, our plan of operations and our liquidity and capital resources.

From the date of our incorporation on May 29, 2001 to the present, we have been a development stage company that had no revenues. Our operating activities during this period consisted primarily of our organization, conducting research, acquiring an option in a several mineral properties, which option has expired and acquiring and option to participate in an oil and gas prospect.

Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. We have expensed all development expenses related to the establishment of the company.

Our operating expenses are classified into five categories:
 
     -      Mineral Property acquisition cost;
     -      Oil & Gas Option Cost;
     -      Administrative fees;
     -      Director’s Fees;
     -      Office and Sundry; and
     -      Professional fees.
 
Mineral property acquisition costs consists of $6,500 paid pursuant to an agreement entered into on July 21, 2002 between Barola Oil & Gas Co., Inc. and John R. Poloni & Associates wherein we purchased a 100% interest in four unpatented mining claims located in Ontario, Canada. The funds used to purchase this interest came from sales of our common stock as described herein and from loans advanced by our former President, Ms. Pamela Starek. We have not established the commercial feasibility of the mineral claims and do not expect to in the near future. As such, the total consideration paid has been expensed.

Oil and gas option costs consists of $25,000 paid on February 1, 2003 pursuant to an agreement with Production Specialties Co. Inc., a California corporation dated April 1, 2003 to purchase between a Five (5%) percent and Fifty (50%) percent interest in the current ownership by Production Specialties Co. Inc. in a property lying in and around Madera County, California known as "Triangle T Ranch". The terms of the agreement contemplate the payment by us to Production Specialties Co. Inc. of a non-refundable deposit in the amount of $25,000 toward the total purchase price, which is dependent on what percentage we elect to purchase. The funds used to purchase this option came from sales of our common stock as described herein and from loans advanced by our former President, Ms. Pamela Starek. The purchase price is set at $34,000 per percentage point purchased. Therefore, if the minimum of 5% is purchased, the purchase price is $170,000 and if the maximum of 50% is purchased, the purchase price is $1,700,000.

  22   


Administrative fees consist of compensation paid to consultants. We have incurred no administrative fees in the nine month period ended June 30, 2004, compared to administrative fees incurred in the nine months ended June 30, 2003 in the amount of $1,200. Since our inception we have incurred administrative fees in the amount of $1,800.

Office and sundry refers primarily to our office supplies and expenses, bank charges assessed by our bank and corporation maintenance filings that amounted to $18 in the three month period ended June 30, 2004 and $857 for the nine month period ended June 30, 2004. We incurred office and sundry expense in the amount of $150 in the three month period ended June 30, 2003 and $600 in the nine month period ended June 30, 2003.

Professional fees consist primarily of our accounting, audit fees and legal fees that amounted to $6,600 from our inception to June 30, 2004. Of this amount, we incurred professional fees in the amount of $5,000 during the three month period ended June 30, 2004.

Our prospects must be considered highly speculative in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently experienced by companies in early stages of development, particularly companies in rapidly evolving markets like ours.

Results of Operations

We incurred a net loss of $5,018 during the three month period ended June 30, 2004 and $5,857 during the nine month period ended June 30, 2004. We incurred a net loss of $2,950 during the three month period ended June 30, 2003 and $29,300 during the nine month period ended June 30, 2003. Since inception, we have incurred a net loss of $44,139. This loss is primarily attributed to the $25,000 cost to acquire our mineral and oil and gas option

We do not expect our administrative fees to increase next year but expect them to remain at the current level.

We expect our office and sundry expenses to increase next year primarily because we expect our bank charges to increase as we conduct more transactions through our bank in carrying on our business. Also we expect our general office expenses to increase as a direct result of our efforts to become a fully reporting issuer with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We estimate that our office and sundry expenses will be $1,200.

We anticipate that our professional fees will increase in the future for several reasons. Our audit fees will increase in the future because we anticipate becoming a reporting company and filing the requisite quarterly and annual reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We are also optimistic that our business activities will increase, which will require auditing procedures over a greater transaction base. In addition, legal fees payable are expected to increase next year as we incur expenses to prepare registration statements. We estimate that our professional fees will be approximately $20,000.

Due to the foregoing factors, our operating results are difficult to forecast. You should evaluate our prospects in light of the risk, expenses and difficulties commonly encountered by comparable development-stage companies in rapidly evolving and regulated markets. We cannot assure you that we will successfully address such risks and challenges. In addition, even though we have an option on an oil and gas prospect, we cannot assure you that it will result in revenues at all or if revenues are generated, that such revenues will be sufficient to permit us to become profitable.

Plan of operations

On December 20, 2002, we entered into a loan facility agreement whereby we are permitted to borrow from Henry Starek, our President, up to $100,000 at any give time on seven day’s notice at an interest rate of 8%. The loan facility agreement does not stipulate any set times or dates for the repayment of principal or interest. The agreement stipulates that all principle and interest owing is due and payable on demand upon 30 days written notice from the lender. Currently, we do not owe and money on this agreement. To date, we have not accessed any of the funds available under the loan facility agreement. We estimate that, at our current level of expenses, we will require approximately $50,000 to maintain operations without revenues for the next twelve months. Since we have access to $100,000 through the loan facility agreement and some cash on hand, we feel that we have sufficient funds to continue operations for, at least, the next twelve months, even if no funds are generated from sales of our common stock pursuant to the within offering. However, we will require financing to expand our business and exercise our option pursuant to the agreement with Production Specialties Co., Inc.

Our initial plan is to raise funds through the sale of our common shares being registered herein. Thereafter, management intends to address the Triangle T Ranch Project by determining what, if any, percentage of the option to exercise pursuant to its agreement with Production Specialties Co., Inc. If management elects to exercise the option, the result will be revenues to the Company in amounts to be determined. The amount of revenues generated by the Triangle T Ranch Project will depend on the number of percentage points of interest we elect to purchase, which election will depend on the amount of cash available at the time of such election and the amount of revenues that the entire Triangle T Ranch Project is generating at the time of exercising the option.

Management also intends to devote time to identifying potential acquisitions and to negotiating favorable terms for such acquisition with a view to creating revenues for the Company. Management intends to research properties with a view to participating as a non-operator such that we will not be responsible for any of the actual drilling, extraction, marketing, sales or shipping of the various resources. Our plan is to acquire various interests in properties that are being operated by other companies such that we can participate only in the costs of the production, as opposed to the actual production, in exchange for a share of revenues generated from such production. At the present time, we have not begun to research or identify other potential acquisitions, but expect to do so within the next twelve months.

During the next twelve months, we expect to be able to maintain operations based on our cash on hand, the access we have to the $100,000 loan facility agreement and the potential to sell some or all of the 3,000,000 common shares being registered for resale. Our plan over the next twelve months is to exercise our option in our existing resource property, namely the Triangle T Ranch Project. Additionally, we intend to seek out additional to-be-identified resource properties in which we intend to acquire interests if we deem them to be commercially viable. We intend to actively seek out viable resource properties in which we may be able to negotiate the purchase of an interest or interests. No such resource properties have been identified as of yet. Other than the Triangle T Ranch Project, we have no other material contracts or agreements with any third parties regarding resource properties.

We will require financing to expand our business and exercise our option pursuant to the agreement with Production Specialties Co., Inc. In the event we are successful in selling all of the 3,000,000 common shares being registered under this prospectus, we do not expect that there would be a need to raise additional funds in the next twelve months. Additionally, we remain

   24  


entitled to borrow up to $100,000 on the Loan Facility Agreement as we have not yet accessed any of those available funds.

Because the selling shareholder offering is being conducted concurrently with our primary offering, our ability to raise the required funds may be impaired because purchasers may chose to purchase shares of our common stock from the selling shareholder rather than in our offering. Management never entered into any formal registration rights agreement with any of the selling shareholders, but management did make oral representations that we would undertake to register any shares issued in any private offering of our common shares. It is these oral representations to the selling shareholders that account for why we are including the selling shareholder offering with the registration of our primary offering.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since the date of our incorporation, we have raised $27,125 though private placements of our common shares. In addition, we have established a loan facility agreement that allows us to borrow up to $100,000 at an interest rate of 8% on all balances drawn down and remaining unpaid. The loan facility is a demand loan, payable on 30 days notice from the lender and it is unsecured. To date, we have not accessed any funds under this agreement. In addition, we hope to raise $450,000 in this offering.

Our operating activities have used cash and non-cash resources of approximately $554 for the nine month period ended June 30, 2004, compared to $26,565 for the nine month period ended June 30, 2003. Our negative operating cash flow since inception has resulted primarily from the net losses that we have incurred during the start-up period as funds were used to establish our business, to acquire the mineral and oil & gas claims, administration fees, director’s fees, professional fees and Office and Sundry expenses.

As at June 30, 2004, we had cash of $124. When combined with ability to borrow an additional $100,000 pursuant to the terms of the loan facility agreement, we anticipate having sufficient funds to maintain operations for the next twelve months. However, we will require financing to expand our business and exercise our option pursuant to the agreement with Production Specialties Co., Inc.

If cash generated from operations is insufficient to meet our long-term liquidity needs, we may need to raise additional funds or seek other financing arrangements. Additionally funding may not be available on favorable terms or at all.

Description of Property

We operate from offices located at 852 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6C 1C8. These facilities are provided to us by Henry Starek, our president, at no cost to the company. This facility functions as our main operating facility and is expected to be sufficient for our purposes for the foreseeable future.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

We intend that any transactions between us and our officers, directors, principal stockholders, affiliates or advisors will be on terms no less favorable to us than those reasonably obtainable from third parties. To date, several related party transactions have taken place.

  25   


First, we were originally capitalized by Ms. Pamela Starek, our former President and Director who loaned the Company an aggregate of $7,500 comprised of $1,000 on May 14, 2002 and $6,500 on July 17, 2002. The loan is unsecured and payable on demand without interest. The outstanding balance on the loans received from Ms. Starek is currently $6,500.

Second, we entered into a loan facility agreement with our President, Mr. Henry Starek wherein he agreed to loan us up to $100,000 at an interest rate of 8% per annum on all amounts drawn down and remaining unpaid. This loan facility is unsecured and is payable on demand. To date, we have not accessed the funds available under the Loan Facility Agreement and there is no balance outstanding at this time.

Third, we issued to Duane Kilburn, one of our directors, 500,000 common voting shares at the cost of $0.005 per share as stock based compensation for services rendered to the company in his capacity as director for the period from April 25, 2002 to April 25, 2003. For these twelve months of service to us, we valued Mr. Kilburn’s compensation at $2,500. We are confident that this transaction was at least as favorable to us as we would have negotiated with a third party.

There are no standard arrangements for the compensation of directors.

  26   


Mr. Kilburn received 500,000 common voting shares at a cost of $0.005 per share for total stock based compensation of $2,500 for services rendered to the company as a director for the period of April 25, 2002 to April 25, 2003.

We do not have an audit committee, nor do we have a compensation committee. We anticipate forming these committees at our next Board of Directors’ meeting.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2004
(Unaudited)
(Stated in U.S. Dollars)


1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The unaudited financial statements as of June 30, 2004 included herein have been prepared without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with United States of America generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the September 30, 2003 audited financial statements and notes thereto.
 
2.   OPERATIONS

Organization

The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada, U.S.A., on May 29, 2001.

Exploration Stage Activities

The Company has been in the exploration stage since its formation and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations. The Company commenced its exploration stage activities by acquiring an exploration prospect in the mining sector, however, during the past year, it has also secured an option to purchase an interest in a producing oil and gas prospect.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.

As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has incurred a net loss of $44,139 for the period from inception, May 29, 2001, to June 30, 2004 and has no sales. The future of the Company is dependent upon its ability to obtain financing and upon future profitable operations from the development of its natural resource interests. Management has plans to seek additional capital through a private placement and public offering of its common stock. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.

3.   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. Because a precise determination of many assets and liabilities is dependent upon future events, the preparation of financial statements for a period necessarily involves the use of estimates which have been made using careful judgement.

The financial statements have, in management’s opinion, been properly prepared within reasonable limits of materiality and within the framework of the significant accounting policies summarized below:
      
       a)   Use of Estimates

 The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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 for the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
 
       b)   Mineral Property Option Payments and Exploration Costs
       The Company expenses all costs related to the maintenance and exploration of mineral claims in which it has secured exploration rights prior to
       establishment of proven and probable reserves. To date, the Company has not established the commercial feasibility of its exploration prospects,
       therefore, all costs are being expensed.
 
        c)  Oil and Gas Property Interests
            
             The Company accounts for its oil and gas producing activities using the full cost method of accounting as prescribed by the United States Securities and
             Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Accordingly, all costs incurred in the acquisition, exploration, and development of proved oil and gas properties,
             including the costs of abandoned properties, dry holes, geophysical costs, and annual lease rentals are capitalized. All general corporate costs are
             expensed as incurred. In general, sales or other dispositions of oil and gas properties are accounted for as adjustments to capitalized costs, with no gain
             or loss recorded. Amortization of evaluated oil and gas properties is computed on the units of production method based on all proved reserves on a
             country-by-country basis. Unevaluated oil and gas properties are assessed at least annually for impairment either individually or on an aggregate basis.
             The net capitalized costs of evaluated oil and gas properties (full cost ceiling limitation) are not to exceed their related estimated future net revenues
             discounted at 10%, and the lower of cost or estimated fair value of unproved properties, net of tax considerations.

3.   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
 
d)   Foreign Currency Translation
     
       The Company’s functional currency is the U.S. dollar. Transactions in foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars as follows:
 
i)   monetary items at the rate prevailing at the balance sheet date;
ii)  non-monetary items at the historical exchange rate;
iii)  revenue and expense at the average rate in effect during the applicable accounting period
 
e)   Income Taxes
 
The Company follows the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109 - "Accounting for Income Taxes", which requires the Company to recognize deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns using the liability method. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted rates in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse.
 
f)   Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share
 
In accordance with SFAS No. 128 - "Earnings Per Share", the basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted loss per common share is computed similar to basic loss per common share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. At June 30, 2004, the Company has no stock equivalents that were anti-dilutive and excluded in the earnings per share computation.

4.   MINERAL PROPERTY INTEREST

The Company has acquired a 100% interest in four unpatented mining claims located in Ontario, Canada, for cash consideration of $6,500. Since the Company has not established the commercial feasibility of the mineral claims, the acquisition costs have been expensed.

5.   OPTION ON OIL AND GAS PROSPECT

The Company has made a non-refundable payment of $25,000 to secure an option, until October 1, 2004, to acquire not less than 5% and not more than 50% of the optionor’s 5.3% working interest in a prospect of producing wells located in Madera County, California. In the event the Company exercises the option, the purchase price shall be $34,000 per percentage point acquired.

 
6.   LOAN PAYABLE

The loan payable is interest free, unsecured, repayable on demand and owing to a director.
 
7.   LOAN FACILITY

On December 20, 2002, the Company entered into an unsecured loan facility agreement to a maximum of $100,000 with a director. The amount drawn down under the loan facility bears interest at 8% per annum and is repayable 30 days after a demand for repayment is received from the lender. As at June 30, 2004, no funds have been advanced to the Company.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT




To the Directors
Barola Oil & Gas Co. Inc.
(An exploration stage company)


We have audited the balance sheets of Barola Oil & Gas Co. Inc. (an exploration stage company) as at September 30, 2003 and 2002, and the statements of loss and deficit accumulated during the exploration stage, cash flows, and stockholders’ deficiency for the years ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, and for the period from May 29, 2001 (date of inception) to September 30, 2003. 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 United States of America generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, these financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at September 30, 2003 and 2002, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the years ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, and for the period from May 29, 2001 (date of inception) to September 30, 2003, in accordance with United States of America generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered net losses and negative cash flows from operations since its inception that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans as to this matter are discussed in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

BAROLA OIL & GAS CO. INC.
(An Exploration Stage Company)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 AND 2002
(Stated in U.S. Dollars)



1.   OPERATIONS

Organization

The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada, U.S.A., on May 29, 2001.

Exploration Stage Activities

The Company has been in the exploration stage since its formation and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations. The Company commenced its exploration stage activities by acquiring an exploration prospect in the mining sector, however, during the past year, it has also secured an option to purchase an interest in a producing oil and gas prospect.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.

As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has incurred a net loss of $38,282 for the period from inception, May 29, 2001, to September 30, 2003 and has no sales. The future of the Company is dependent upon its ability to obtain financing and upon future profitable operations from the development of its natural resource interests. Management has plans to seek additional capital through a private placement and public offering of its common stock. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.

2.   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. Because a precise determination of many assets and liabilities is dependent upon future events, the preparation of financial statements for a period necessarily involves the use of estimates which have been made using careful judgement.

The financial statements have, in management’s opinion, been properly prepared within reasonable limits of materiality and within the framework of the significant accounting policies summarized below:

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 AND 2002
(Stated in U.S. Dollars)


2.   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
     
       a)   Use of Estimates 
 
  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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 for the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these
  estimates.
 
       b)    Mineral Property Option Payments and Exploration Costs
       
        The Company expenses all costs related to the maintenance and exploration of mineral claims in which it has secured exploration rights prior
         to establishment of proven and probable reserves. To date, the Company has not established the commercial feasibility of its exploration
         prospects, therefore, all costs are being expensed.
 
       c)    Oil and Gas Property Interests
             
              The Company accounts for its oil and gas producing activities using the full cost method of accounting as prescribed by the United States
              Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Accordingly, all costs incurred in the acquisition, exploration, and development of proved oil
              and gas properties, including the costs of abandoned properties, dry holes, geophysical costs, and annual lease rentals are capitalized. All
              general corporate costs are expensed as incurred. In general, sales or other dispositions of oil and gas properties are accounted for as
              adjustments to capitalized costs, with no gain or loss recorded. Amortization of evaluated oil and gas properties is computed on the units of
              production method based on all proved reserves on a country-by-country basis. Unevaluated oil and gas properties are assessed at least
              annually for impairment either individually or on an aggregate basis. The net capitalized costs of evaluated oil and gas properties (full cost
              ceiling limitation) are not to exceed their related estimated future net revenues discounted at 10%, and the lower of cost or estimated fair value
              of unproved properties, net of tax considerations.
 
 d)    Foreign Currency Translation
       
        The Company’s functional currency is the U.S. dollar. Transactions in foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars as follows:
 
i)      monetary items at the rate prevailing at the balance sheet date; 
ii)     non-monetary items at the historical exchange rate;
iii)    revenue and expense at the average rate in effect during the applicable accounting period.

SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 AND 2002
(Stated in U.S. Dollars)


2.   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
 
e)   Income Taxes
     
      The Company follows the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109 - "Accounting for Income Taxes", which
      requires the Company to recognize deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the
      Company’s financial statements or tax returns using the liability method. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the
      temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted rates in effect in the years in
      which the differences are expected to reverse.
 
f)   Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share
 
In accordance with SFAS No. 128 - "Earnings Per Share", the basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted loss per common share is computed similar to basic loss per common share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. At September 30, 2003, the Company has no stock equivalents that were anti-dilutive and excluded in the earnings per share computation.

3.   MINERAL PROPERTY INTEREST

The Company has acquired a 100% interest in four unpatented mining claims located in Ontario, Canada, for cash consideration of $6,500. Since the Company has not established the commercial feasibility of the mineral claims, the acquisition costs have been expensed.

4.   OPTION ON OIL AND GAS PROSPECT

The Company has made a non-refundable payment of $25,000 to secure an option, until October 1, 2004, to acquire not less than 5% and not more than 50% of the optionor’s 5.3% working interest in a prospect of producing wells located in Madera County, California. In the event the Company exercises the option, the purchase price shall be $34,000 per percentage point acquired.

5.   LOAN PAYABLE

6.   LOAN FACILITY

On December 20, 2002, the Company entered into an unsecured loan facility agreement to a maximum of $100,000 with a director. The amount drawn down under the loan facility bears interest at 8% per annum and is repayable 30 days after a demand for repayment is received from the lender. As at September 30, 2003, no funds have been advanced to the Company.

7.   RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION

ITEM 24. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

Any repeal or modification of our Articles of Incorporation shall be prospective only as to this indemnification and shall not adversely affect any limitation on personal liability of any of our directors or officers for acts or omissions prior to such repeal or modification.

Our Bylaws state that we shall, to the maximum extent permitted by Nevada law, have the power to indemnify each of our agents (which includes directors, officers, employees and agents) against expenses and shall have the power to advance to each such agent expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding to the maximum extent permitted by Nevada General Corporation law.

ITEM 26. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES
   
  (a)      Securities issued and sold:
 
1.     On or about December 15, 2002, pursuant to Regulation S, we authorized the issuance of 2,500,000 common shares to our President, Mr. Henry Starek, at the price of $0.001 per common share for total gross proceeds to us of $2,500. With respect to the value of the securities, we determined that the par value of $0.001 was the fair market value of the shares

 
  29   

 
since the Company’s securities had no value in excess of par value at this time. Mr. Starek was our President and a Director at all time prior to this issuance and he was and is a resident of Canada. This issuance was made outside of the United States and no direct selling efforts were made in the United States. This offering was made pursuant to Regulations S of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

2.     Between January 1, 2003 and January 31, 2003, pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Regulation S, we accepted subscription agreements from the investors whose names are included in the table below to purchase 4,925,000 of our common shares, which were offered at a purchase price of $0.005 per common share for total gross proceeds to us of $24,625. For this offering we offered our shares of common stock to a limited number of offerees with whom we had a pre-existing relationship. Each of the investors in our company are friends of business associates of Mr. Starek, the director of the company. None of the purchasers of shares were residents of the United States and each purchaser was, either accredited or we reasonably believed had such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that each was capable of evaluating the merits and risks of their investment. Each of theses sales of securities were made outside of the United States and no directed selling efforts were made in the United States. For each offering, we discussed with each purchaser in, what we believed to be, reasonable detail the various aspects, including the risks, relating to a purchase of our common shares.

3.     We issued 500,000 common voting shares to Mr. Duane Kilburn at the cost of $0.005 per share for total stock based compensation to him of $2,500 for services rendered to the company as a director for the period from April 25, 2002 to April 25, 2003. Mr. Kilburn at all times has been a resident of Canada. As such, this issuance was made pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Regulation S. The amount of compensation represented by this issuance was negotiated in good faith between Mr. Starek, president and Mr. Kilburn and believe it to be reasonable.
 
As of February 18, 2004, there were 7,925,000 shares of our common stock outstanding.

All schedules are omitted because they are not applicable or the required information is shown in out consolidated financial statements and related notes attached to this prospectus.


ITEM 28. UNDERTAKINGS
 
The undersigned small business issuer hereby undertakes:

(1)   The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to:

(2)   File, during any period in which it offers or sells securities, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement to;

       (i)   Include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) for the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act");

       (ii)   Reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually or together, represent a fundamental change in the information in the registration statement; and notwithstanding the forgoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in the volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement; and

       (iii)   Include any additional changed material information on the plan of distribution.

  32   


(3)   For determining liability under the Securities Act, treat each such post-effective amendment as a new registration statement of the securities offered, and the offering of the securities at that time to be the initial bonafide offering thereof.

(4) File a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of the securities, which remain unsold at the end of the offering.

(5) Provide to the transfer agent at the closing, certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as are required by the transfer agent to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the small business issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the small business issuer has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the small business issuer of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the small business issuer in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the small business issuer will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

We will file, during any period in which we offer or sell securities, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually or together, represent a fundamental change in the information in the registration statement.

POWER OF ATTORNEY

KNOW ALL MEN BY THESE PRESENTS, that each person whose signature appears below constitutes and appoints Henry Starek his true and lawful attorney-in-fact and agent with full power of substitution and resubstitution for him and in his name, place and stead, in any and all capacities, to sign and all amendments (including post-effective amendments) of and supplements to this Registration Statement and to file the same, with all exhibits thereto, and other documents in connection therewith, with the Securities and Exchange Commission, granting unto such attorney-in-fact and agent full power and authority to do and perform each and every act and thing requisite and necessary to be done in and about the premises, to all intents and purposes and as fully as they might or could do in person, hereby ratifying and confirming all that such attorney-in-fact and agent, or his substitute, may lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof.
