REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


To the Stockholders and Board of Directors
US NATURAL GAS CORP (Effective March 22, 2010)
St Petersburg, Florida


In accordance with the terms and objectives of our engagement, we have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of US NATURAL GAS CORP (Formally Adventure Energy, Inc.)  (A Development Stage Enterprise) as of March 31, 2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows from inception (March 28, 2008) through March 31, 2011.  These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of US NATURAL GAS CORP’s management.

We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  A review of interim consolidated financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquires of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters.  A review (as defined by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States)) is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.  Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2011, and for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 and from inception (March 28, 2008) through March 31, 2011 in order for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
We audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2010, and we expressed an unqualified opinion on it in our report dated April 7, 2011.  We have not performed any auditing procedures since that date.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements assume that US NATURAL GAS CORP will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, US NATURAL GAS CORP has incurred significant operating losses for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, and from inception  (March 22, 2008) through March 31, 2011.  In addition, although US NATURAL GAS CORP has commenced planned principal business operations there are insignificant revenues from oil and natural gas production and its current liabilities substantially exceed its current assets.

These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about US NATURAL GAS CORP’s ability to continue as a going concern.  US NATURAL GAS CORP management’s plans regarding these matters are disclosed  in the notes to the consolidated financial statements and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.  In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, these consolidated financial statements do not, at this time, include any adjustments that might result from the resolution of this significant uncertainty.

US NATURAL GAS CORP
(Formerly Adventure Energy, Inc.)
 (A Development Stage Enterprise)
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
From Inception (March 28, 2008) through March 31, 2011 (Unaudited)
 
NOTE A – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Nature of Operations
 
US Natural Gas Corp (the “Company”) (formerly “Adventure Energy, Inc.”) was incorporated in the state of Florida on March 28, 2008. The Company is an independent oil and natural gas operator engaged in exploration, development and production activities in the Appalachian Basin, particularly in Kentucky and West Virginia. The Company's business strategy focuses primarily on the drilling and acquisition of proven developed and undeveloped properties and on the enhancement and development of those properties.
 
On July 20, 2009, the Company formed E 2 Investments, LLC ("E 2") to actively make equity investments in private and publically owned companies and to acquire energy related holdings.
 
On August 25, 2009, the Company formed Wilon Resources, Inc. in the state of Tennessee.  On February 9, 2010, Wilon Resources, Inc. ("Wilon") merged with and into Wilon Resources of Tennessee, Inc. ("WRT"), a publically owned Tennessee Corporation.  All of the stock of Wilon owned by the Company was acquired by WRT for consideration equal to 1,000 shares of WRT for every one share of Wilon held by the Company.  Subsequent to the merger, Wilon approved the use of the name Wilon Resources, Inc. by WRT.
 
On September 4, 2009, the Company entered into a lender acquisition agreement with SLMI Holdings, LLC, a Nevada Limited Liability Company.  Through this agreement, the Company acquired SLMI Options, LLC.  The sole purpose of this acquisition of SLMI Options, LLC is to hold three commercial notes issued by Wilon Resources, Inc., (formerly "Wilon Resources of Tennessee, Inc.') in the years 2005 through 2007.
 
On February 1, 2010, the Company formed US Natural Gas Corp in the state of Florida.  Subsequently, on March 22, 2010 the Company changed the name to US Natural Gas Corp KY.  With this name change, all assets held in the state of Kentucky were transferred from US Natural Gas Corp to US Natural Gas Corp KY.
 
On February 2, 2010, the Company formed E 3 Petroleum Corp ("E 3") in the state of Florida. E 3 acts as the operator and bonding entity for the Company’s wells in the states of Kentucky and West Virginia. 
 
On March 19, 2010, the shareholders of Adventure Energy, Inc. (now US Natural Gas Corp) approved an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation changing the name of the Company to US Natural Gas Corp, and an amendment deleting Article 8 thereof to eliminate reference to a non-existent Shareholders' Restrictive Agreement. Wilon simultaneously completed a name change to US Natural Gas Corp WV. On April 13, 2010, the Company received approval from FINRA recognizing the name change and approving a corresponding change of the Company's trading symbol from "ADVE" to "UNGS".   

On March 19, 2010, the Company's shareholders approved with 16,611,138 votes "for" and zero votes "against" to an exchange of shares between the Company and Wilon Resources, Inc. ("Wilon"), whereby the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of Wilon.  For each share of common stock of Wilon exchanged, the Company issued one share of the Company's common stock plus one warrant to purchase one additional share of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of  $.25 (25 cents) per share to be exercisable for a period of 5 years from the date of issue. Wilon's shareholders approved the share exchange with 27,843,109 votes "for" and zero votes "against".  
 
On June 3, 2010, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) made the final approval of the share exchange.  The Company accounted for the acquisition of Wilon using the purchase method on June 3, 2010.
 
Principles of Consolidation
 
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of US Natural Gas Corp, and all of its wholly owned subsidiaries, US Natural Gas Corp WV, US Natural Gas Corp KY, SLMI Options, LLC, E2 Investments, LLC and E3 Petroleum Corp.  All  intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
From Inception (March 28, 2008) through March 31, 2011 (Unaudited)


NOTE A – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying interim unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission  (the “SEC”) for interim financial statements and in the opinion of management contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly, in all material respects, the Company's consolidated financial position as of March 31, 2011, and the results of its operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 and from inception (March 18, 2008) through March 31, 2011, and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 and from inception (March 18, 2008) through March 31, 2011. These results have been determined on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been applied consistently as those used in the preparation of the Company's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
The Company considers all liquid debt securities with an original maturity of 90 days or less that are readily convertible into cash to be cash equivalents.

Marketable Equity Securities
 
Marketable equity securities are stated at lower of cost or market value with unrealized gains and losses included in operations.  The Company has classified its marketable equity securities as trading securities.
 
Recently Enacted Accounting Standards

In July 2010, the “Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act” (“Wall Street Reform Act”) was signed into law. The Wall Street Reform Act permanently exempts small public companies with less than $75 million in market capitalization (nonaccelerated filers) from the requirement to obtain an external audit on the effectiveness of internal financial reporting controls provided in Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Section 404(b) requires a registrant to provide an attestation report on management’s assessment of internal controls over financial reporting by the registrant’s external auditor. Disclosure of management’s attestation on internal controls over financial reporting under existing Section 404(a) is still required for nonaccelerated filers.

In February, 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2010-09, effective immediately, which amended ASC Topic 855, Subsequent Events. The amendment was made to address concerns about conflicts with SEC guidance and other practice issues. Among the provisions of the amendment, the FASB defined a new type of entity, termed an “SEC filer,” which is an entity required to file with or furnish its financial statements to the SEC. Entities other than registrants whose financial statements are included in SEC filings (e.g., businesses or real estate operations acquired or to be acquired, equity method investees, and entities whose securities collateralize registered securities) are not SEC filers. While an SEC filer is still required by U.S. GAAP to evaluate subsequent events through the date its financial statements are issued, it is no longer required to disclose in the financial statements that it has done so or the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. The Company does not believe the changes have a material impact on its results of operations or financial position.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements”. This update requires more robust disclosures about valuation techniques and inputs to fair value measurements. The update is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009. This update had no material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In July 2009, the FASB issued ASC 855-10-50, “Subsequent Events”, which requires an entity to recognize in the financial statements the effects of all subsequent events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet, including the estimates inherent in the preparation of the financial statements. The final rules were effective for interim and annual reports issued after June 15, 2009. The Company has adopted the policy effective September, 2009. There was no material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as a result of adoption.

NOTE A – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

In June 2009, the FASB issued ASC 105, Codification which establishes FASB Codification as the source of authoritative U.S. GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. The final rule was effective for interim and annual reports issued after September 15, 2009. The Company has adopted the policy effective September 30, 2009. There was no material effect on the presentation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements as a result of the adoption of ASC 105.

On December 31, 2008, the SEC published the final rules and interpretations updating its oil and gas reporting requirements (“Modernization of Oil and Gas Reporting”). In January 2010, the FASB released ASU 2010-03, Extractive Activities - Oil and Gas (“Topic 932”); Oil and Gas Reserve Estimation and Disclosures, aligning U.S. GAAP standards with the SEC’s new rules. Many of the revisions were updates to definitions in the existing oil and gas rules to make them consistent with the petroleum resource management system, which is a widely accepted standard for the management of petroleum resources that was developed by several industry organizations. Key revisions include: (a) changes to the pricing used to estimate reserves utilizing a 12-month average price rather than a single day spot price which eliminates the ability to utilize subsequent prices to the end of a reporting period when the full cost ceiling was exceeded and subsequent pricing exceeds pricing at the end of a reporting period; (b) the ability to include nontraditional resources in reserves; (c) the use of new technology for determining reserves; and (d) permitting disclosure of probable and possible reserves. The SEC requires companies to comply with the amended disclosure requirements for registration statements filed after January 1, 2010, and for annual reports on Form 10-K for fiscal years ending on or after December 15, 2009. ASU 2010-03 is effective for annual periods ending on or after December 31, 2009. Adoption of Topic 932 did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position. In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-14, Accounting for Extractive Activities-Oil & Gas: Amendments to Paragraph 932-10-S99-1. This ASU amends terminology as defined in Topic 932-10-S99-1.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  (See Note B - Acquisition of Wilon Resources, Inc.)
 
Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial  instruments which potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consists primarily of trade accounts receivable from a variety of local,  national, and international oil and natural gas companies.  Such credit risk is considered by management to be limited due to the financial resources of those oil and natural gas companies.

Risk Factors

The Company operates in an environment with many financial  risks including, but not limited to, the ability to acquire additional economically recoverable gas reserves, the continued ability to market drilling programs, the inherent risks of the search for, development of and production of  gas, the ability to sell natural gas at prices which will provide attractive rates of return, the volatility and seasonality of  gas production and prices, and the highly competitive nature of the industry as well as worldwide economic conditions.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company defines the fair value of a financial instrument as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties.  Financial instruments  included in the  Company's financial statements include cash and cash equivalents,  short-term investments, accounts receivable,  other receivables,  other assets,  accounts payable, notes payable and due to affiliates.  Unless otherwise disclosed in the notes to the financial statements, the carrying value of financial instruments is considered to approximate fair value due to the short maturity and characteristics of those instruments.  The carrying value of debt approximates fair value as terms approximate those currently available for similar debt instruments.

From Inception (March 28, 2008) through March 31, 2011 (Unaudited)


 NOTE A – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
 
Oil and Gas Properties

The Company has adopted the successful efforts method of accounting for gas producing activities.  Under the successful efforts method, costs to acquire mineral interests in gas properties, to drill and equip exploratory wells that find proved reserves, and to drill and equip developmental wells are capitalized.  Costs to drill exploratory wells that do not find proved reserves, costs of developmental wells on properties the Company has no further interest in, geological and geophysical costs, and costs of carrying and retaining unproved properties are expensed.  Unproved gas properties that are significant are periodically assessed for impairment of value, if any, and a loss is recognized at the time of impairment by providing an impairment allowance.  Other unproven properties are expensed when surrendered or expired.

When a property is determined to contain proved reserves, the capitalized costs of such properties are transferred from unproved properties to proved properties and are amortized by the unit-of-production method based upon estimated proved developed reserves.  To the extent that capitalized costs of groups of proved properties having similar characteristics exceed the estimated future net cash flows, the excess, if any, of capitalized costs are written down to the present value of such amounts.  Estimated future net cash flows are determined based primarily upon the estimated future proved reserves related to the Company's current proved properties and, to a lesser extent, certain future net cash flows related to operating and  related fees due the Company related to its management of various partnerships.  The Company follows U.S. GAAP in Accounting for Impairments.
 
On sale or abandonment of an entire interest in an unproved property, gain or loss is recognized, taking into consideration the amount of any recorded impairment.  If a partial interest in an unproved property is sold, the amount received is treated as a reduction of the cost of the interest retained.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from product sales is recognized when all of the following criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (2) the price is fixed or determinable, (3) collectability is reasonably assured, and (4) delivery has occurred.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for at fair value in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
 
Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the assets and liability method.  Current income taxes are provided in accordance with the laws of the respective taxing authorities.  Deferred income taxes are provided for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is not more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized.

Net Income (Loss) per Common Share

Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive securities (such as stock options, warrants, and convertible securities) outstanding.  Dilutive securities having an anti-dilutive effect on diluted net income (loss) per share and are excluded from the calculation.

At March 31, 2011, diluted weighted average common shares outstanding exclude 61,113,415 shares issuable on exercise of the 61,113,415 warrants outstanding at March 31, 2011.

NOTE B - ACQUISITION OF WILON RESOURCES, INC.

On May 28, 2010, the Company received notification from the appropriate state agencies that the acquisition of Wilon Resources by the Company was effective.  On June 3, 2010, final approval was given by FINRA for the share exchange between the Company and Wilon Resources.  The Company issued one share of common stock for each share of Wilon stock outstanding (49,207,973 shares) plus one warrant to purchase an additional share exercisable for a period of 5 years from the issue date.  In July 2010, the Company canceled 1,000,000 shares of common stock relating to the Wilon acquisition.  These shares were owned by the Company.  The Company's common stock at June 3, 2010 had a value of $.035 per share making the acquisition price $1,687,279.

The Company accounted for the business combination using the purchase method.  The estimated fair market value of Wilon's net assets (assets less liabilities) was recorded at the value of the acquisition price of $1,687,279.  Management reduced its original estimate of the fair market value.  This reduction in the estimate had no effect on the recorded amount of the transaction as the excess fair market value over the acquisition price reduced the recorded value of oil and gas properties and equipment.  The oil and gas properties consist of 115 natural gas wells, 12,000 acres of mineral rights leases and the gathering system interconnecting the wells.  The Company intends to retain a third party to complete a Reserve Report covering the 12,000 acres located in Wayne County, West Virginia substantiating proven and unproven wells.  The estimates used by the Company in recording the acquisition could change significantly pending the valuation results of the third party.

NOTE C—RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Notes receivable, shareholder totals $139,855 and $110,597 at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.  Interest receivable on the note is $4,084 and $2,832 at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.  The notes are due on demand with a 4% interest rate.

Included within accounts payable and accrued expenses are wages due officers and shareholders of $295,316 and $260,000 as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

NOTE D - GOING CONCERN

The Company is a development stage enterprise and although it has commenced planned principal business operations, there are insignificant revenues there from.  The Company has incurred losses of $2,897,346 for the period March 28, 2008 (inception) through March 31, 2011 and has negative working capital balance aggregating $1,905,600.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

There can be no assurance that sufficient funds required during the next year, or thereafter, will be generated from operations or that funds will be available from external sources such as debt or equity financings or other potential sources.  The lack of additional capital resulting from the inability to generate cash flow from operations or to raise capital from external sources would force the Company to substantially curtail or cease operations and therefore would have a material adverse effect on its business.  Furthermore, there can be no assurance that any such required funds, if available, will be available on attractive terms or that they will not have a significant dilutive effect on the Company’s existing stockholders.

The Company intends to overcome the circumstances that affect its ability to remain a going concern through a combination of the commencement of revenues, with interim cash flow deficiencies being addressed through additional equity and debt financing.  The Company anticipates raising additional funds through public or private financing, strategic relationships or other arrangements in the near future to support its business operations; however the Company may not have commitments from third parties for a sufficient amount of additional capital.  The Company cannot be certain that any such financing will be available on acceptable terms, or at all, and its failure to raise capital when needed could limit its ability to continue its operations.  The Company’s ability to obtain additional funding will determine its ability to continue as a going concern.  Failure to secure additional financing in a timely manner and on favorable terms would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial performance, results of operations and stock price and require it to curtail or cease operations, sell off its assets, seek protection from its creditors through bankruptcy proceedings, or otherwise.  Furthermore, additional equity financing may be dilutive to the holders of the Company’s common stock, and debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants, and strategic relationships, if necessary to raise additional funds, and may require that the Company relinquish valuable rights.

NOTE J - INCOME TAXES
 
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method described in SFAS No. 109, “Accounting For Income Taxes”, the objective of which is to establish deferred tax assets and liabilities for the temporary differences between the financial reporting and the tax basis of the Company’s assets and liabilities at the enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such amounts are realized or settled.  A valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets is recorded when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.  In recognition of the uncertainty regarding the ultimate amount of income tax benefits to be derived, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

The provision (benefit) for income taxes includes income taxes currently payable and those deferred because of temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities.  The provision (benefit) for income taxes consists of the following at:

Overview
 
US Natural Gas Corp (“US Natural Gas”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) was organized as a Florida Corporation on March 28, 2008 under the name of Adventure Energy, Inc.

On March 22, 2010, the Company amended the Articles of Incorporation to effectively change its name to US Natural Gas Corp from Adventure Energy, Inc.  On April 14, 2010, the name change became effective along with a change in the Company's trading symbol from "ADVE" to "UNGS".

US Natural Gas is in the oil and natural gas industry and is engaged in exploration, development and production activities in the Appalachian Basin, particularly in the states of Kentucky and West Virginia. Our business activities focus primarily on the drilling and acquisition of proven developed and underdeveloped proprieties and on the enhancement and development of these properties

We maintain leaseholds on mineral rights covering approximately 5,100 acres in addition to rights of way in Kentucky and 12,000 acres in West Virginia through US Natural Gas Corp WV (formerly Wilon Resources, Inc.).  We also own, through a wholly owned subsidiary, approximately 300 acres of mineral rights in Wayne County, West Virginia.  In addition, we own 199 acres of surface in Wayne County, West Virginia which houses our operational facilities. Our first revenue from production was generated in July 2009.  

US Natural Gas Corp KY, a wholly owned subsidiary, concentrates on oil producing activities mainly in the counties of Green, Hart, Adair, Russell, and Monroe in Kentucky.  E 3 Petroleum acts as the bonding and operating entity for all wells in Kentucky in which KY maintains a working interest.  On average, KY maintains a 95% working interest and 83% net revenue interest in each well.  To date, E 3 Petroleum has 31 wells under bond of which 17 are currently producing commercially viable crude with minimal revenue.  KY continues to re-enter, treat, complete, and operate the wells acquired in the November 2009 asset acquisition with KYTX Oil & Gas, LLC.  It is KY's intentions to continue to drill new wells on the current leasehold base as well as acquire previously drilled wells for re-entering and placing into production.
 
US Natural Gas Corp WV’s, a wholly owned subsidiary, operations are based in Wayne County, West Virginia and are solely dedicated to the production of commercially viable natural gas.  The wells operated and owned by WV are held under the bond of E 3 Petroleum.  Through E 3 Petroleum, WV operates 122 natural gas wells that were previously shut-in from June 2005 to April 2010 due to a delivery constraint.  WV has entered into an agreement with a third party to allow for the purchase of its natural gas production on a firm capacity basis which management believes will remedy the prior transmission constraint.

We expect to generate long-term reserve and production growth through drilling activities and further acquisitions.  We believe that our management’s experience and expertise will enable it to identify, evaluate, and develop our oil and natural gas projects.  Our operations are currently divided amongst two wholly owned subsidiaries, US Natural Gas Corp KY (“KY”) and US Natural Gas Corp WV (“WV”) (formerly Wilon Resources, Inc.).

We continue to seek to identify oil and natural gas leaseholds and wells for possible acquisition. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to enter into agreements for the acquisition of these wells upon terms that are satisfactory to the Company.
 
While we anticipate the majority of future capital expenditures will be expended on the acquisition of previously drilled wells, reworking of wells, repair and maintenance to our gathering system, and drilling of wells, we intend to use our experience and regional expertise to add leasehold interests to the inventory of leases for future drilling activities, as well as property acquisitions.

Recent Developments

On March 16, 2011, US Natural Gas Corp KY, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, executed a term sheet for the acquisition of certain assets of Madison Brothers Investments, LLC located in Edmonson County, Kentucky. Under the terms, the Company is to receive, via deed, assignment, and transfer, approximately 182 acres of mineral rights, twenty five equipped oil wells, two water injection wells, and five oil and gas leases. The purchase price for the transaction is Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000.00) of which the Company has paid Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00) to the Seller upon execution of the term sheet. The transaction was originally scheduled to close on or before April 30, 2011, but the Closing date has been rescheduled for May 16, 2011 on a mutually agreeable date shortly thereafter.

On February 23, 2011, the Company’s stock quotation platform changed from the OTC Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”) and OTCQB to solely the OTCQB. The change in stock quotation to strictly the OTCQB was caused by the dynamic changes within the OTCBB itself and the market makers who elect to quote on this platform. The change will in no way affect, nor is it a reflection upon, the Company's operations, financials, or business plan. The OTCQB is one of three tiers established by OTC Markets Group, Inc., which operates one of the world's largest electronic interdealer quotation systems for broker-dealers to trade securities not listed on a national exchange. The OTCQB designation is meant to identify companies that are reporting with the SEC or a U.S. banking regulator, making it easy for investors to identify companies that are current in their reporting obligations. Quotes and company information can be viewed at www.otcmarkets.com.

On February 3, 2011, the Company entered into a Convertible Promissory Note (“Promissory Note”) with Asher Enterprises, (“Asher”) in the amount of Forty Thousand Dollars ($40,000) and a Securities Purchase Agreement. The Promissory Note was fully funded on February 11, 2011. The Promissory Note is convertible, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time before maturity at the option of the holder at the Variable Conversion Price, which shall mean 58% of the Market Price. The Market Price is defined as the average of the three (3) lowest Trading Prices for the common stock during the 10 (ten) Trading Day period ending one Trading Day prior to the date the Conversion Notice is sent. The Promissory Note has a term of nine (9) months and accrues interest at a rate equal to eight percent (8%) per year.

On January 11, 2011, the Board of Directors of B.T.U. Pipeline, Inc. ("BTU"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, elected to dissolve the corporation. BTU was organized under the state of Tennessee and was acquired in the Wilon Resources, Inc. acquisition in 2010. BTU's sole purpose of existence was to serve as the bonding company and operator of the Company's West Virginia natural gas wells. Any remaining assets of BTU were assigned to US Natural Gas Corp WV on January 11, 2011 and appropriate documentation filed with the County Clerk of Wayne County, West Virginia. The Articles of Dissolution and Articles of Termination were filed with the State of Tennessee Department of State on March 4, 2011 after the Company's Certificate of Tax Clearance was received from the Tennessee Department of Revenue.

On March 19, 2010, the Company's shareholders approved an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation changing the name of the Company to US Natural Gas Corp.  Simultaneously, a majority of the shareholders of Wilon approved an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation changing its name to US Natural Gas Corp WV.  In addition, Wilon's shareholders approved an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation deleting Article 8 thereof eliminating reference to a non-existent "Shareholders' Restrictive Agreement."

On February 28, 2010, the Company and Wilon executed a plan of share exchange between the two companies that was placed before the shareholders for a vote on March 19, 2010.

The Company spent the majority of the 1st quarter of 2010 repairing the gathering system, repairing roads leading to wells, installing components to the Company’s meter run, fabricating a Hydrogen Sulfide detection facility, installing a Glycol unit, and concentrating on the infrastructure in preparation of delivery.  From late March through the present, the focus has been on swabbing wells, replacing completion components, hooking up previously drilled wells, and placing the wells into production.  Over the course of the next 6-9 months, the Company’s efforts will stay on course to increase production by focusing on individual wells.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2011 AND 2010

This discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements included elsewhere in this report.
 
Revenues  for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 were $54,257 and $  -  , respectively.  The Company had revenues of $643,286 for the period March 28, 2008 (inception) through March 31, 2011.  Over the next twelve months the Company anticipates an increase in revenues as it reworks, reopens and drills new wells through its wholly owned subsidiaries US Natural Gas Corp WV and US Natural Gas Corp KY.

Operating Expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 were $244,107 and $399,976, respectively.  The decrease of $155,869 in operating expenses was primarily from the decrease in legal, consulting and other professional services provided to the Company in early 2010.  Operating expenses for the period from March 28, 2008 (inception) through March 31, 2011 were $3,696,521.  The Company anticipates that its operating expenses will increase over the next twelve months as it brings additional wells into production.

Net Loss for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 was $167,455 and $271,696, respectively.  Net loss for the period from March 28, 2008 (inception)through March 31, 2011 was $2,897,346.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
At March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 cash and cash equivalents were $2,821 and $ 1, respectively.

For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 net cash used by operating activities was $173,822 and $341,293, respectively.  For the period from March 28, 2008 (inception) through March 31, 2011 net cash used by operating activities was $964,478.

For the three months ended March 31, 2011 net cash provided by investing activities was $61,702.  For the three months ended March 31, 2010 net cash used by investing activities was $95,423.  The increase in net cash provided by investing activities was primarily due to a decrease in the purchase of oil and gas properties and equipment for the three months ended March 31, 2011.  For the period March 28, 2008 (inception) through March 31, 2011 net cash used from investing activities was $65,050.

For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 net cash provided by financing activities was $115,000 and $465,431, respectively.   The decrease in net cash provided by financing activities was primarily due to a decrease in proceeds received from notes payable for the three months ended March 31, 2011. For the period from March 28, 2008 (inception) through March 31, 2011 net cash provided by financing activities was $1,032,349.

PLAN OF OPERATION AND FINANCING NEEDS

We intend to focus on our wells under operation in the states of West Virginia and Kentucky.  In West Virginia, our plan is to place each well capable of delivering commercially viable natural gas back into production after each well is inspected, flow lines are replaced or repaired, completion components are replaced including but not limited to check valves, regulators, well heads, Barton recorders, and the wells are swabbed to remove water from the well bores and producing formations.  At the Company’s election and with successful financing arrangements, we may elect to stimulate via acid or nitrogen frac certain wells or deepen wells to new producing formations after e-logs are completed.  The Company anticipates that the majority of the previously producing wells will be placed back into production during this period.

In Kentucky, our plan is to continue to address and place into production the wells acquired from  KYTX Oil & Gas, LLC in the November 2009 asset acquisition transaction.   We will continue to develop and place into production those wells located on the Detweiler and Thompson leases in Hart County, Kentucky. With the addition of our newly acquired work-over rig, we believe we can more economically address each well to allow us to operate our wells  and increase our oil production.

We have elected to cease any development of our leasehold base in Morgan, Kentucky. With natural gas prices remaining constant below $5.00/mcf, we believe it is in the Company's best interest to concentrate our funds on oil producing properties located in South Central Kentucky.
 
In addition, the Company operates nine gas deep wells which were drilled from 2004-2007, but not completed. The Company has completed three of these wells and has placed them into production. The remaining six wells will be addressed during the course of the second half of 2011. 

We intend to acquire producing oil and gas properties where we believe significant additional value can be created.  Management is primarily interested in developmental properties where some combination of these factors exist: (1) opportunities for long production life with stable production levels; (2) geological formations with multiple producing horizons; (3) substantial exploitation potential; and (4) relatively low capital investment production costs.
 
We intend to acquire additional mineral rights leaseholds in Kentucky and West Virginia to further expand our block of acreage for development. Currently, the rate to acquire mineral rights leases in the states of Kentucky and West Virginia ranges from $5.00-$25.00 per acre.  In addition, the Lessor is given a 12.5% royalty from gross production.
 
We intend to maximize the value of properties through a combination of re-entry into previously producing wells, new drilling, increasing recoverable reserves and reducing operating costs.  We have at our disposal the use of the latest technology such as directional and horizontal drilling.  These methods have historically produced oil and gas at faster rates and with lower operating costs basis than traditional vertical drilling. To date, we have not attempted any horizontal drilling on new wells or on our re-entry projects.
 
We intend to maintain a highly competitive team of experienced and technically proficient employees and motivate them through a positive work environment and stock ownership.  We believe that employee ownership, which may be encouraged through a stock option plan, is essential for attracting, retaining and motivating qualified personnel.  While we have not yet adopted a stock option plan, we may elect to do so in the near future.
 
In order to fund our current drilling and completion programs, as well as future drilling programs, we rely upon partnerships and joint ventures with accredited investors.  Once we become profitable, we intend to drill wells in which we will maintain 100% of the net revenue.
 
Including the net proceeds from the 2008 stock offering, we only have sufficient funds to conduct our operations for three to six months.  There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all.
 
If we are not successful in generating sufficient liquidity from our operations or in raising sufficient capital resources, on terms acceptable to us, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations liquidity and financial condition.
 
We presently do not have any available credit, bank financing or other external sources of liquidity, other than the net proceeds from the offering.  Due to our brief history and historical operating losses, our operations have not been a source of liquidity.  We will need to obtain additional capital in order to expand operations and become profitable.  In order to obtain capital, we may need to sell additional shares of our common stock or borrow funds from private lenders.  There can be no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining additional funding.

We will need additional investments in order to continue operations, but we cannot offer any assurance that we will be able to obtain such investments.  Financing transactions may include the issuance of equity or debt securities, obtaining credit facilities, or other financing mechanisms.  The recent downturn in the U.S. stock and debt markets could make it more difficult to obtain financing through the issuance of equity or debt securities.  Even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that it could incur unexpected costs and expenses, fail to collect significant amounts owed to it, or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force it to seek alternative financing.  Further, if we issue additional equity or debt securities, stockholders may experience additional dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our common stock.  If additional financing is not available or is not available on acceptable terms, we will have to curtail our operations.
 
Recent Financings
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company raised $15,000 in private financing from an accredited investor.  These funds were utilized for the daily operating activities of the company.  The investor purchased shares from the Company at a price of $.015 per share.

Critical Accounting Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
 
Effect of Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
 
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.
 
Application of Critical Accounting Policies
 
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities.  On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to impairment of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, deferred tax assets and fair value computation using the Black Scholes option-pricing model.  We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions, such as the trading value of our common stock and estimated future undiscounted cash flows, that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions; however, we believe that our estimates, including those for the above-described items, are reasonable.
   
Use of Estimates

In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, management utilizes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  These estimates and assumptions relate to recording net revenue, collectability of accounts receivable, useful lives and impairment of tangible and intangible assets, accruals, income taxes, inventory realization, stock-based compensation expense and other factors.  Management believes it has exercised reasonable judgment in deriving these estimates.  Therefore, a change in conditions could affect these estimates.

To approve a share exchange between the Company and Wilon Resources, Inc., a Tennessee corporation (“Wilon”) whereby the Company would acquire all of the outstanding shares of Wilon and hold Wilon as a wholly owned subsidiary.  For each share of common stock of Wilon to be exchanged, the Company would issue one share of the Company’s common stock plus one warrant to purchase one additional share of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $.25 (25 cents) per share to be exercisable for a period of 5 years from the date of issue.
 
2. To approve an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to change the name of the Company to US Natural Gas Corp.
 
3. To approve an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to delete Article 8 thereof, which states, “all of the shares of the Company may be subject to a Shareholders’ Restrictive Agreement.”  No such agreement was ever entered into by the shareholders and there is no current intent to enter into any such agreement at the present time.
 
The Company’s shareholders approved each of the Proposals with 16,611,138 votes "for" and zero votes "against". The shareholders for Wilon approved Proposal #1 with 27,843,109 votes "for" and zero votes "against".

ARTICLES OF AMENDMENT
TO ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION
OF
US NATURAL GAS CORP
DESIGNATION, PREFERENCES AND OTHER RIGHTS
AND QUALIFICATIONS
OF
SERIES C PREFERRED STOCK
 
Pursuant to Section 607.1006 of the Florida Business Corporation Act, the undersigned, being the President of US NATURAL GAS CORP, a Florida corporation (the "Corporation"), bearing Document Number P08000032840, does hereby submit these Articles of Amendment for the purpose of amending the Corporation's Articles of Incorporation as follows:
 
FIRST: On April 14, 2011, the Board of Directors unanimously approved the designation of a series of preferred stock to be known as "Series C Preferred Stock". The designations, powers, preferences and rights, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions hereof, in respect of the Series C Preferred Stock shall be as hereinafter described.
 
Accordingly, "Article V" of the Articles of Incorporation of the Company is hereby amended to include the following:
 
SERIES C PREFERRED STOCK
 
1)      Designations and Amounts. The Board of Directors of the Company, pursuant to authority granted in the Articles of Incorporation, hereby creates a series of preferred stock designated as Series C Preferred Stock (the "Series C Preferred Stock") with a stated value of $0.001 per share. The number of authorized shares constituting the Series C Preferred Stock shall be One Million (1,000,000) shares.
 
2)      Dividends. The holders of Series C Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to receive dividends, payable via cash or stock. Further, no dividends may be paid on common stock or any other Series of Preferred stock while Series C Preferred Shares are outstanding.
 
3)      Voting. Except as otherwise required by law or expressly provided herein, the holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to vote on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Company and shall have such number of votes equal to the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock held by such holders' on a forty votes per one share basis pursuant to the provisions hereof at the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to vote on such matters or, if no such record date is established, at the date such vote is taken. Except as otherwise required by law or expressly provided herein, the holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock and common stock shall vote together as a single class, and not as separate classes.
 
4)      Conversion.
 
a)     Conversion Rate. Upon the filing of an amendment to the Company's Articles of Incorporation, which, once effective, makes available a sufficient number of authorized but unissued and unreserved shares of common stock to permit all then outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock to be so converted, then, the holder of any shares of the Series C Preferred Stock shall convert such shares into fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock at the rate of forty shares of common stock for each share of Series C Preferred Stock ("Conversion Rate") subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 4(e). The holder of any Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to convert at their election.
 
b)        Method of Conversion. Before any holder of Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to convert the same into shares of common stock, such holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefore, duly endorsed, at the office of the Company or of any transfer agent for the Series C Preferred
Stock, and shall give written notice 5 business days prior to date of conversion to the Company at its principal corporate office, of the election to convert the same and shall state therein the name or names in which the certificate•or certificates for shares of common stock are to be issued. The Company shall, within five business days, issue and deliver at such office to such holder of Series C Preferred Stock, or to the nominee or nominees of such holder, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of common stock to which such holder shall be entitled as aforesaid. Conversion shall be deemed to have been effected on the date when delivery of notice of an election to convert and certificates for shares is made, and such date is referred to herein as the "Conversion Date."
 
 
 
 
6

 
 
c)     Partial Conversion. In the event of the conversion of some but not all of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock represented by a certificate or certificates surrendered, the Company shall execute and deliver to or on the order of the holder, at the expense of the Company, a new certificate representing the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock which were not converted.
 
d)       Status of Converted Stock. In the event any shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall be converted or otherwise acquired by the Company, the shares so converted shall be canceled and shall resume the status of authorized shares of preferred stock without differentiation as to series. All such shares may be reissued as part of a new series of preferred stock subject to the conditions and restrictions on issuance set forth in the Articles of Incorporation or in any certificate of designation creating a series of preferred stock or any similar stock or as otherwise required by law.
 
e)     Transfer Taxes. The Company shall pay all documentary, stamp or other transactional taxes attributable to the issuance or delivery of shares of common stock upon conversion of any shares of Series C Preferred Stock, provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any taxes which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of any certificate for such shares in a name other than that of the holder of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock in respect of which such shares are being issued.
 
f)     Adjustments to Conversion Rate.
 
i)     Subdivisions, Combinations, or Consolidations of Common Stock. In the event the outstanding shares of common stock shall be subdivided, combined or consolidated, by stock split, stock dividend, combination or like event, into a greater or lesser number of shares of common stock after the effective date of this Certificate of Designation, the Series C Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to such subdivision, combination, consolidation or stock dividend shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such subdivision, combination or consolidation, be proportionately adjusted as more fully set forth in Section 4(f)(ii).
 
ii)           Adjustment for Common Stock Dividends and Distributions. If the Company at any time subdivides, combines or consolidates the outstanding shares of common stock as contemplated by Section 4(f)(i), in each such event the Series C Conversion Rate that is then in effect shall be adjusted as of the time of such event by multiplying the Series C Conversion Rate then in effect by a fraction (x) the numerator of which is the total number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding immediately after the time of such subdivision, combination or consolidation, and (y) the denominator of which is the total number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to such subdivision, combination or consolidation.
 
iii)           Reclassifications and Reorganizations. In the case, at any time after the date hereof, of any capital reorganization, merger or any reclassification of the stock of the Company (other than solely as a result of a stock dividend or subdivision, split-up or combination of shares), the Series C Conversion Rate then in effect shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such reorganization or reclassification, be proportionately adjusted and the terms of the Series C Preferred Stock shall be deemed amended such that the shares of the Series C Preferred Stock shall, after such reorganization or reclassification, be convertible into the kind and number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the Company or otherwise to which such holder would have been entitled if immediately prior to such reorganization or reclassification, the holder's shares of the Series C Preferred Stock had been converted into common stock. The provisions of this Section 4(f)(iii) shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations or reclassifications.

iv) Distributions Other Than Cash Dividends Out of Retained Earnings. If the Company shall declare a cash dividend upon its common stock payable otherwise than out of retained earnings or shall distribute to holders of its common stock shares of its capital stock (other than shares of common stock and other than as otherwise would result in an adjustment pursuant to this Section 4(f)), stock or other securities of other persons, evidences of indebtedness issued by the Company or other persons, assets (excluding cash dividends) or options or rights (excluding options to purchase and rights to subscribe for common stock or other securities of the Company convertible into or exchangeable for common stock), then, in each such case, provision shall be made so that the holders of Series C Preferred Stock shall receive upon conversion thereof, in addition to the number of shares of common stock receivable thereupon, the amount of securities of the Company and other property which they would have received had their Series C Preferred Stock been converted into common stock on the date of such event and had they thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and including the date of conversion, retained such securities and other property receivable by them as aforesaid during such period, subject to all other adjustments called for during such period under this Section 4(f) with respect to the rights of the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock.

The Company shall, upon the written request at any time of any holder of Series C Preferred Stock, furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a like certificate setting forth (i) such adjustments and readjustments; (ii) the Series C Conversion Rate at the time in effect; and (iii) the number of shares of common stock and the amount, if any, of other securities, cash or property which at the time would be received upon the conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock.

Fractional shares of Series C Preferred Stock may be issued and all conversion, voting and other rights shall be applied to such fractional shares on a proportional basis; provided, however, that in lieu of any fractional shares of common stock to which the holder of Series C Preferred Stock would be entitled upon conversion or otherwise pursuant hereto, the Company shall issue to such holder, one whole share of common stock. The number of whole shares to be issuable to each holder upon such conversion shall be determined on the basis of the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the total number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock of such holder at the time converting into common stock.
 
Liquidation.
 
i) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the assets of the Company available for distribution to stockholders shall be distributed among the holders of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock and common stock, pro rata based on the number of shares held by each such holder, treating for this purpose all such securities as if they had been converted to common stock pursuant to the terms hereof immediately prior to such dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company.
 
j) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company which will involve the distribution of assets other than cash, the Company shall promptly engage an independent appraiser to determine the fair market value of the assets to be distributed to the holders of shares of its capital stock. The Company shall, upon receipt of such appraiser's valuation, give prompt written notice to each holder of shares of Series C Preferred Stock of the appraiser's valuation. Any equity securities of other entities to be distributed shall be valued as follows: (i) if the common stock is listed on a national securities exchange or NASDAQ, the last sale price of the common stock in the principal trading market for the common stock on such date or, if there are no sales common stock on that date, then on the next preceding date on which there were any sales of common shares, as reported by the exchange or NASDAQ, as the case may be; or (ii) if the common stock is not listed on a national securities exchange or NASDAQ, but is traded in the over-the-counter market, the closing bid price for the common stock on such date, as quoted by the OTC Bulletin Board or the National Quotation Bureau, Incorporated or similar publisher of such quotations or, if there are no sales common stock on that date, then on the next preceding date on which there were any sales of common shares, as quoted by the OTC Bulletin Board or the National Quotation Bureau, Incorporated or similar publisher of such quotations, as the case may be; or (iii) if the fair market value of the common stock cannot be determined pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, such price as the Board of Directors of the Company shall reasonably determine, in good faith.

The Series C Preferred Stock shall be held and owned upon the express condition that the provisions of this Section are exclusive with respect to the replacement of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen shares of Series C Preferred Stock and shall preclude any and all other rights and remedies notwithstanding any law or statute existing or hereafter enacted to the contrary with respect to the replacement of negotiable instruments or other securities without the surrender thereof.

(C) It is the intent of the Payee and the Payor in the execution of this Note that the loan evidenced hereby comply with the restrictions of applicable state usury laws.  If, for any reason, it should be determined that any usury law is applicable (which the parties do not believe to be the case), the Payor and the Payee stipulate and agree that (i) the interest (or any other consideration pursuant to this Note) pursuant to this Note or in any other instrument evidencing or securing the indebtedness evidenced herein shall be limited to the maximum permitted by such law, (ii) none of the terms and provisions contained herein shall ever be construed to create a contract for the use, forbearance or detention of money requiring payment of interest at a rate in excess of the maximum interest rate permitted to be charged by any state laws which are applicable, (iii) the obligation of the Payor shall be reduced to the maximum rate permitted to be charged by any state laws which are applicable, and (iv) the Payee shall not collect monies which would otherwise increase the effective interest rate on this Note to a rate in excess of the maximum rate permitted to be charged by any such applicable state law.  Any sums collected which are in excess of such maximum rate shall be credited to the payment of any other sums due hereunder.  If no sums are due hereunder, then such excess shall be returned to the Payor.

The conversion price shall be sixty (60%) percent of the lowest trading price during the five (5) trading days prior to conversion, subject to adjustment pursuant to this Article “5” of this Note (the “Conversion Price”); provided, however, if an Event of Default pursuant to Article “10” of this Note occurs, this Note shall be subject to an interest rate of twenty (20%) percent and the Conversion Price formula shall be reduced to forty (40%) of the average of the lowest trading price during the five (5) trading days prior to conversion.

(i.) If the Payee does not provide written notice of its intention to convert some or all of the unpaid principal and any accrued and unpaid interest due, Payor shall pay the amount due on the Maturity Date.
 
(ii.) If all or part of this Note is converted pursuant to Paragraph “A” of this Article “5” of this Note, the shares shall be delivered to the Payee within three (3) business days after the date upon which the Payor receives a Conversion Notice (such third (3rd) business day the “Conversion Share Due Date”), in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “A”; provided, however,  that a Conversion Notice delivered after 1:00 o’clock P.M. on any business day shall be deemed to be delivered on the next following business day.
 
(iii.) If all or part of this Note is converted pursuant to Paragraph “A” of this Article “5” of this Note, all shares delivered to the Payee shall be free-trading if the shares are issued after six (6) months after the date of this Note.  If any shares delivered to the Payee are not free-trading, on May 3, 2012, at its own cost, the Company shall cause its counsel to issue an opinion letter to the Company’s transfer agent, or its successor (the “Transfer Agent”), that the said shares may be sold or transferred without restriction or limitation in reliance on Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and direct the Transfer Agent to replace such shares with a certificate that does not contain a restrictive legend. After the receipt by the Transfer Agent of the certificate representing such shares from Tangiers (or its broker) requesting the issuance of an unrestricted certificate, the Company shall cooperate fully with the Transfer Agent. If the newly issued unrestricted stock is not delivered to Tangiers or its broker within four (4) business days after the receipt of the restricted shares, the Company shall pay an additional amount of one thousand dollars ($1,000) per calendar day for each day that delivery of the unrestricted stock certificate is delayed; provided, however, that receipt of the restricted certificate after 1:00 p.m. local time shall be deemed to be receipt on the next following business day. The Company acknowledges that it would be extremely difficult or impracticable to determine Tangiers’ actual damages and costs resulting from the delay in making delivery of the unrestricted stock certificate and the inclusion herein of any such additional amounts are the agreed upon liquidated damages representing a reasonable estimate of those damages and costs and do not constitute a penalty.
 
(B) The Payor shall pay any and all stock transfer fees. No fractions of shares or scrip representing fractions of shares will be issued upon conversion, but the number of shares issued shall be rounded to the nearest whole share, based upon the total number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Payee.  The date upon which a Conversion Notice is received by the Payor shall be deemed to be the date upon which the Payee has delivered the conversion notice duly executed, to the Payor; provided, however, that a Conversion Notice delivered after 1:00 o’clock P.M. on any business day shall be deemed to be delivered on the next following business day.  Upon receipt of the Shares for the full conversion and/or payment of this Note, the Payee shall deliver this Note to the Payor marked “cancelled.”
 
(C) If the Payor fails to deliver shares timely pursuant to this Article “5” of this Note, the Payor shall pay to the Payee an additional amount of shares equal in number to one (1%) percent of the number of shares of Common Stock required to be issued per calendar day for each calendar day that the shares are delayed after the Conversion Share Due Date.  The Payor acknowledges that it would be extremely difficult or impracticable to determine the Payee’s actual damages and costs resulting from the delay in delivering the Shares on or prior to the Conversion Share Due Date and the inclusion herein of any such additional amounts are the agreed upon liquidated damages representing a reasonable estimate of those damages and costs and do not constitute a penalty.

(D) If, upon Tangiers’ request to convert all or part of this Note pursuant to this Article “5” of this Note, the shares are not available by reason of the Payor not having enough authorized and unissued shares to issue the shares to Tangiers, the Payor shall take all necessary action to increase the number of authorized shares of the Company’s Common Stock to satisfy Tangiers’ request to convert all or part of this Note.
 
(E) In order to preserve the conversion rights of the Payee, the conversion rate is subject to adjustment if certain events occur, including, but not limited to, any of the events that are set forth below:
 
(i.) The issuance of any previously authorized or newly authorized shares (common or any other securities convertible into common) of the Payor for less than the conversion price per share at the time of conversion pursuant to this Article “5” of this Note;
 
(ii.) A recapitalization of the outstanding shares of the Payor which has the effect of changing the percentage of shares which this Note may be converted into in relation to the total number of outstanding shares;
 
(iii.) The payment of any stock dividends;
 
(iv.) The distribution to any holders of shares of the Payor’s securities, evidences of indebtedness of the Payor or assets (excluding cash dividends paid from retained earnings);
 
(v.) The issuance after the date hereof of any stock options, warrants or other rights to acquire shares in the Payor at a price less than the current market value of such shares; and
 
(vi.) Any capital reorganization by the Payor, any reclassification or recapitalization of the Payor’s capital stock, or any transfer of all or substantially all the assets of the Payor to or consolidation or merger of the Payor with or into any other Person.
 
(F) Upon the occurrence of any of the above events (any of such events is hereinafter referred to as a “Dilution Event”), then, in such event, the Payor will immediately take whatever measures are necessary to insure that the percentage interest in the Payor which the Note may be converted into would not be increased or reduced.  Any adjustment which is required by this Paragraph “F” of this Article “5” of this Note shall be deemed effective retroactive to the date of the Dilution Event.  The provisions of this Paragraph “F” of this Article “5” of this Note shall be applicable to any Dilution Event which occurs at any time after the date of this Note.  If any of the Dilution Events occur, the Payor will mail or cause to be mailed a notice pursuant to Paragraph “C” of Article “20,” to the Payee of this Note specifying the Dilution Event(s) which has occurred.
 
(G) As long as this Note is outstanding and no Event of Default has occurred, neither Tangiers nor its affiliates shall at any time engage in any short sale of, or sell put options or similar instruments with respect to, the Company’s stock.
 
6. Opinions.
 
(A) Inclusive within the $2,500 funds paid by Payor at the closing of this transaction is the cost for preparation of a legal opinion. The Payee’s counsel shall provide the appropriate opinion letters to the Transfer Agent in compliance with the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to §4(1) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with respect to the transfer or sale of the shares, if such transfer or sale is permissible under Rule 144.
 
(B) Upon execution of this Note, the Payor shall deliver to Payee the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “B”.

(B)           All expenses in connection with preparing and filing any registration statement under Paragraph “A” of this Article “7” of this Note (and any registration or qualification under the securities or “Blue Sky” laws of states in which the offering will be made under such registration statement) shall be borne in full by the Payor.

THIS CERTIFIES THAT, for value received, Tangiers Investors, LP, a Delaware limited partnership with an address at 402 West Broadway, Suite 400, San Diego, California 92101 (the “Holder” or “Tangiers”) is entitled to subscribe for and purchase from US  Natural Gas Corp, a Florida corporation with an address at 1717 Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. St. N, St. Petersburg, Florida 33704 (the “Company” or “UNGS”), up to one million (1,000,000) shares of the fully paid and nonassessable Common Stock, without par value, of the Company (the “Shares”), at a price per share equal to the lowest trading price on November 03, 2011 (the “Exercise Price”); provided that the Warrants may be exercised on a net issuance or “cashless” basis as provided herein, subject to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth;
 
This Warrant is subject to the following terms and conditions:
 
1.
TERM.  This Warrant is exercisable, in whole or in part, any time (i) commencing six (6) months after the date of this Warrant and (ii) prior to the expiration of five (5) years following the date of this Warrant.
 
2 .
METHOD OF EXERCISE; PAYMENT.
 
A. 
CASH EXERCISE.  The purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder, in whole or in part, from time to time at the principal office of the Company, by delivering a completed and duly executed Notice of Exercise (attached hereto as Exhibit “A”) and by the payment to the Company of an amount equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of the Shares being purchased, which amount may be paid, at the election of the Holder, by wire transfer or check payable to the order of the Company.  The person or persons in whose name(s) any certificate(s) representing Shares shall be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have become the holder(s) of record of, and shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder(s) of, the Shares represented thereby (and such Shares shall be deemed to have been issued) immediately prior to the close of business on the date or dates upon which this Warrant is exercised, with the Holder having all rights as a record holder including, but not limited to, all voting rights.
 
B. 
CASHLESS EXERCISE.  In lieu of exercising this Warrant by payment of cash in accordance with Paragraph “A” of this Article “2” of this Warrant, the Holder may elect to receive shares equal to the value of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being canceled) by surrender of this Warrant (accompanied by the election form, attached hereto, duly executed) at the principal office of the Company together with notice of such election, in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder hereof a number of Shares computed using the following formula:
 
 
1

 
 
 
Y(A-B)
X=                A
 
Where:
 
X=           The number of Shares to be issued to the Holder of this Warrant.
 
 
Y=
The number of Shares purchasable under this Warrant as to which this Warrant is being exercised.
 
 
A=
The Current Market Price (as hereinafter defined) of one share of Common Stock.
 
B=
The Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculations) per share of Common Stock.
 
For purposes hereof, the “Current Market Price” per Share on any date shall be deemed to be the closing price per Share on the trading day immediately preceding the date in question on the principal national securities exchange upon which the Shares are listed or admitted to trading.  Such closing price shall be the last reported sales price or, if no such reported sale takes place on such day, the closing bid price, in either case on the principal national securities exchange on which the Shares are listed or admitted to trading or, if the Shares are not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, the highest reported bid price for the Shares as furnished by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. through the NASDAQ Capital Market or a similar organization if the NASDAQ Capital Market is no longer reporting such information.  If, on any such date, the Shares are not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange and are not quoted on the NASDAQ Capital Market or any similar organization, the Current Market Price shall be deemed to be the highest reported bid price for the Shares on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”) or the OTC Markets OTCQB ("OTCQB").  If, on any such date, the Shares are not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, is not quoted on the NASDAQ Capital Market, the OTCBB, OTCQB or any similar organization, the Current Market Price shall be deemed to be the highest reported bid price for the Shares in the “Pink Sheets”.  If, on any such date, the Shares are not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange and are not quoted on the NASDAQ Capital Market, the OTCBB, the OTC Markets OTCQB ("OTCQB"), or any similar organization, the Current Market Price shall be deemed to be the Current Market Price, determined as set forth above, on the last date upon which such price is available.  If no such price is available, the Current Market Price shall be the fair value of a Share on such date, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, absent manifest error.
 
C. 
 STOCK CERTIFICATES.  In the event of any exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, certificates for the shares of Common Stock so purchased shall be delivered to the Holder within three (3) business days after said exercise and, unless this Warrant has been fully exercised or has expired, a new Warrant representing the shares with respect to which this Warrant shall not have been exercised shall also be issued to the Holder within such time.  If the Company fails to deliver the shares of Common Stock so purchased to the Holder pursuant to this Paragraph “C” of this Article “2” of this Warrant, the Company shall pay the Holder an additional amount of one thousand dollars ($1,000) per calendar day for each late day of delivery.  The Company acknowledges that it would be extremely difficult or impracticable to determine the Holder’s actual damages and costs resulting from the delay in providing an opinion or approval for said sale of securities and the inclusion herein of any such additional amounts are the agreed upon liquidated damages representing a reasonable estimate of those damages and costs and do not constitute a penalty.
 
 
2

 
 
3.
STOCK FULLY PAID; RESERVATION OF SHARES.  All of the Shares issuable upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance and receipt of the Exercise Price therefore, be fully paid and nonassessable, and free from all preemptive rights, rights of first refusal or first offer, taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof.  During the period within which the rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised, the Company shall at all times have authorized and reserved for issuance sufficient shares of its Common Stock to provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant.
 
4.
ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF SHARES.  Subject to the provisions of Article “1” hereof, the number and kind of Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price therefor shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain events, as follows:
 
A. 
RECLASSIFICATION, CONSOLIDATION OR MERGER.  In case of any reclassification of the Common Stock (other than a change in par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination), or in case of any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger with another corporation in which the Company is a continuing corporation and in which the Company's stockholders immediately preceding such consolidation or merger own at least 50% of the voting securities of the Company following such consolidation or merger and which does not result in any reclassification of the Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant), or in case of any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, the Company, or such successor or purchasing corporation as the case may be, shall execute a new Warrant, providing that the holder of this Warrant shall have the right to exercise such new Warrant, and procure upon such exercise and payment of the same aggregate Exercise Price, in lieu of the Shares of Common Stock theretofore issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities, money and property receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets or merger by a holder of an equivalent number of shares of Common Stock.  Such new Warrant shall provide for adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Paragraph “A” of this Article “4” of this Warrant.  The provisions of this Paragraph “A” of this Article “4” of this Warrant shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, consolidations, mergers, sales, leases or conveyances.
 
B. 
STOCK SPLITS, DIVIDENDS AND COMBINATIONS.  If the Company shall at any time subdivide the outstanding shares of Common Stock, or shall issue a stock dividend on its outstanding shares of Common Stock, the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such subdivision or to the issuance of such stock dividend shall be proportionately increased, and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased, and in the event that the Company shall at any time combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately decreased, and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately increased, effective at the close of business on the date of such subdivision, stock dividend or combination, as the case may be.

5.
ANTIDILUTION.
 
A. 
If, while this Warrant is outstanding, the Company (i) effects a subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock or (ii) issues any Common Stock by reclassification of its Common Stock, the Exercise Price then in effect shall be proportionately decreased and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased in proportion to such increase of outstanding Common Stock, and conversely, if, while this Warrant is outstanding, the Company combines the outstanding Common Stock, the Exercise Price then in effect shall be proportionately increased and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding Common Stock.  Any adjustment under this Article “5” shall become effective as of the record date for such event.  For purposes of this Article “5”, a stock dividend shall be considered a split.
 
B. 
All calculations under this Article “5” shall be made to the nearest one-hundredth of a cent or to the nearest one-hundredth of a share, as the case may be.
 
C. 
In any case in which this Article “5” shall require that an adjustment in the number of Shares be made effective as of a record date for a specified event, the Company may elect to defer, until the occurrence of such event, issuing to the Holder, if the Holder exercised this Warrant after such record date, the Shares, if any, issuable upon such exercise over and above the number of Shares issuable upon such exercise on the basis of the number of shares of Common Stock in effect prior to such adjustment; provided, however, that the Company shall deliver to the Holder a due bill or other appropriate instrument evidencing the Holder’s right to receive such additional shares of Common Stock upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment.
 
D. 
Whenever there shall be an adjustment as provided in this Article “5”, the Company shall within five (5) business days thereafter cause written notice thereof to be sent to the Holder pursuant to Paragraph “C” of Article “13” of this Warrant, which notice shall be accompanied by an officer’s certificate setting forth the number of Shares issuable and the Exercise Price thereof after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment and the computation thereof, which officer’s certificate shall be conclusive evidence of the correctness of any such adjustment absent manifest error.
 
6.
NOTICES.
 
A. 
Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price and any increase or decrease in the number of Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant in accordance with Article “4” hereof, then, and in each such case, the Company, within five (5) business days thereafter, shall give notice pursuant to Paragraph “C” of Article “13” of this Warrant, which notice shall state the Exercise Price as adjusted and, if applicable, the increased or decreased number of Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation of each.
 
B. 
If, while this Warrant is outstanding, Tangiers requests the Company to furnish a current statement of the Company’s number of issued and outstanding shares of common stock, the Company shall arrange to give such a statement to Tangiers pursuant to Paragraph “C” of Article “13” of this Warrant, within two (2) business days after the Company’s receipt of such request from Tangiers.  If the Company fails to timely provide such a statement pursuant to this Paragraph “B” of this Article “6” of this Warrant within five (5) business days of the issuance of the Opinion, the Company agrees to pay the Holder an additional amount of five hundred ($500) dollars per day for each day that delivery of said statement is delayed.  The Company acknowledges that it would be extremely difficult or impracticable to determine the Holder’s actual damages and costs resulting from the delay in providing said statement and the inclusion herein of any such additional amounts are the agreed upon liquidated damages representing a reasonable estimate of those damages and costs and do not constitute a penalty.

7.
FRACTIONAL SHARES.  The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of shares of Common Stock or other capital stock of the Company upon the exercise of this Warrant.  If any fraction of a share of Common Stock would be issuable on the exercise of this Warrant (or specified portions thereof), the Company shall pay lieu of such fraction an amount in cash equal to the same fraction of the current market price on the date of the exercise of this Warrant.
 
8.

A.

9. 
RIGHTS OF STOCKHOLDERS.  No holder of this Warrant shall be entitled, as a warrant holder, to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of Common Stock or any other securities of the Company which may at any time be issuable on the exercise hereof for any purpose, nor shall anything contained herein be construed to confer upon the Holder of this Warrant, as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether upon any recapitalization, issuance of stock, reclassification of stock, change of par value, consolidation, merger, conveyance, or otherwise) or to receive notice of meetings, or to receive dividends or subscription rights or otherwise until this Warrant shall have been exercised and the Shares purchasable upon the exercise hereof shall have become deliverable, as provided herein.
 
10. 
REGISTRATION.
 
A. 
If the Company shall at any time seek to register or qualify any of its common stock or the securities holdings of any of its controlling shareholders, on each such occasion it shall, without cost or expense, include all of the Holder’s shares in such registration or qualification.  The Company shall keep the registration effective until such time as the Holder has sold its shares or the shares are eligible to be transferred without restriction pursuant to the provisions of Rule 144 which was promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to §4(1) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Rule 144”).  The Company agrees to provide an opinion of counsel with respect to any sales of the shares by the Holder if such sale is permissible under Rule 144.

2011-TI-002 May 3, 2011
                                                                                                                     
THIS CERTIFIES THAT, for value received, Tangiers, a Delaware limited partnership with an address at 402 West Broadway, Suite 400, San Diego, California 92101 (the “Holder” or “Tangiers”) is entitled to subscribe for and purchase from US  Natural Gas Corp, a Florida corporation with an address at 1717 Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. St. N, St. Petersburg, Florida 33704 (the “Company” or “USNG”), up to one million (1,000,000) shares of the fully paid and nonassessable Common Stock, without par value, of the Company (the “Shares”), at a price per share equal to 125% of the lowest trading price on November 03, 2011 (the “Exercise Price”); provided that the Warrants may be exercised on a net issuance or “cashless” basis as provided herein, subject to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth;
 
This Warrant is subject to the following terms and conditions:
 
1. TERM.  This Warrant is exercisable, in whole or in part, any time (i) commencing six (6) months after the date of this Warrant and (ii) prior to the expiration of five (5) years following the date of this Warrant.
 
2. METHOD OF EXERCISE; PAYMENT.
 
A. CASH EXERCISE.  The purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder, in whole or in part, from time to time at the principal office of the Company, by delivering a completed and duly executed Notice of Exercise (attached hereto as Exhibit “A”) and by the payment to the Company of an amount equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of the Shares being purchased, which amount may be paid, at the election of the Holder, by wire transfer or check payable to the order of the Company.  The person or persons in whose name(s) any certificate(s) representing Shares shall be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have become the holder(s) of record of, and shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder(s) of, the Shares represented thereby (and such Shares shall be deemed to have been issued) immediately prior to the close of business on the date or dates upon which this Warrant is exercised, with the Holder having all rights as a record holder including, but not limited to, all voting rights.
 
 
1

 
 
B. CASHLESS EXERCISE.  In lieu of exercising this Warrant by payment of cash in accordance with Paragraph “A” of this Article “2” of this Warrant, the Holder may elect to receive shares equal to the value of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being canceled) by surrender of this Warrant (accompanied by the election form, attached hereto, duly executed) at the principal office of the Company together with notice of such election, in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder hereof a number of Shares computed using the following formula:
 
Y(A-B)
X=                A
 
Where:
 
X=           The number of Shares to be issued to the Holder of this Warrant.
 
 
Y=
The number of Shares purchasable under this Warrant as to which this Warrant is being exercised.
 
 
A=
The Current Market Price (as hereinafter defined) of one share of Common Stock.
 
B=
The Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculations) per share of Common Stock.
 
For purposes hereof, the “Current Market Price” per Share on any date shall be deemed to be the closing price per Share on the trading day immediately preceding the date in question on the principal national securities exchange upon which the Shares are listed or admitted to trading.  Such closing price shall be the last reported sales price or, if no such reported sale takes place on such day, the closing bid price, in either case on the principal national securities exchange on which the Shares are listed or admitted to trading or, if the Shares are not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, the highest reported bid price for the Shares as furnished by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. through the NASDAQ Capital Market or a similar organization if the NASDAQ Capital Market is no longer reporting such information.  If, on any such date, the Shares are not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange and are not quoted on the NASDAQ Capital Market or any similar organization, the Current Market Price shall be deemed to be the highest reported bid price for the Shares on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”) or the OTC Markets OTCQB ("OTCQB").  If, on any such date, the Shares are not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, is not quoted on the NASDAQ Capital Market, the OTCBB, OTCQB or any similar organization, the Current Market Price shall be deemed to be the highest reported bid price for the Shares in the “Pink Sheets”.  If, on any such date, the Shares are not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange and are not quoted on the NASDAQ Capital Market, the OTCBB, the OTC Markets OTCQB ("OTCQB"), or any similar organization, the Current Market Price shall be deemed to be the Current Market Price, determined as set forth above, on the last date upon which such price is available.  If no such price is available, the Current Market Price shall be the fair value of a Share on such date, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, absent manifest error.
 
C.  STOCK CERTIFICATES.  In the event of any exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, certificates for the shares of Common Stock so purchased shall be delivered to the Holder within three (3) business days after said exercise and, unless this Warrant has been fully exercised or has expired, a new Warrant representing the shares with respect to which this Warrant shall not have been exercised shall also be issued to the Holder within such time.  If the Company fails to deliver the shares of Common Stock so purchased to the Holder pursuant to this Paragraph “C” of this Article “2” of this Warrant, the Company shall pay the Holder an additional amount of one thousand dollars ($1,000) per calendar day for each late day of delivery.  The Company acknowledges that it would be extremely difficult or impracticable to determine the Holder’s actual damages and costs resulting from the delay in providing an opinion or approval for said sale of securities and the inclusion herein of any such additional amounts are the agreed upon liquidated damages representing a reasonable estimate of those damages and costs and do not constitute a penalty.
 
3. STOCK FULLY PAID; RESERVATION OF SHARES.  All of the Shares issuable upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance and receipt of the Exercise Price therefore, be fully paid and nonassessable, and free from all preemptive rights, rights of first refusal or first offer, taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof.  During the period within which the rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised, the Company shall at all times have authorized and reserved for issuance sufficient shares of its Common Stock to provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant.
 
 
2

 
 
4. ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF SHARES.  Subject to the provisions of Article “1” hereof, the number and kind of Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price therefor shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain events, as follows:
 
A. RECLASSIFICATION, CONSOLIDATION OR MERGER.  In case of any reclassification of the Common Stock (other than a change in par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination), or in case of any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger with another corporation in which the Company is a continuing corporation and in which the Company's stockholders immediately preceding such consolidation or merger own at least 50% of the voting securities of the Company following such consolidation or merger and which does not result in any reclassification of the Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant), or in case of any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, the Company, or such successor or purchasing corporation as the case may be, shall execute a new Warrant, providing that the holder of this Warrant shall have the right to exercise such new Warrant, and procure upon such exercise and payment of the same aggregate Exercise Price, in lieu of the Shares of Common Stock theretofore issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities, money and property receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets or merger by a holder of an equivalent number of shares of Common Stock.  Such new Warrant shall provide for adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Paragraph “A” of this Article “4” of this Warrant.  The provisions of this Paragraph “A” of this Article “4” of this Warrant shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, consolidations, mergers, sales, leases or conveyances.
 
B. STOCK SPLITS, DIVIDENDS AND COMBINATIONS.  If the Company shall at any time subdivide the outstanding shares of Common Stock, or shall issue a stock dividend on its outstanding shares of Common Stock, the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such subdivision or to the issuance of such stock dividend shall be proportionately increased, and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased, and in the event that the Company shall at any time combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately decreased, and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately increased, effective at the close of business on the date of such subdivision, stock dividend or combination, as the case may be.
 
5. ANTIDILUTION.
 
A. If, while this Warrant is outstanding, the Company (i) effects a subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock or (ii) issues any Common Stock by reclassification of its Common Stock, the Exercise Price then in effect shall be proportionately decreased and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased in proportion to such increase of outstanding Common Stock, and conversely, if, while this Warrant is outstanding, the Company combines the outstanding Common Stock, the Exercise Price then in effect shall be proportionately increased and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding Common Stock.  Any adjustment under this Article “5” shall become effective as of the record date for such event.  For purposes of this Article “5”, a stock dividend shall be considered a split.
 
B. All calculations under this Article “5” shall be made to the nearest one-hundredth of a cent or to the nearest one-hundredth of a share, as the case may be.
 
 
3

 
 
C. In any case in which this Article “5” shall require that an adjustment in the number of Shares be made effective as of a record date for a specified event, the Company may elect to defer, until the occurrence of such event, issuing to the Holder, if the Holder exercised this Warrant after such record date, the Shares, if any, issuable upon such exercise over and above the number of Shares issuable upon such exercise on the basis of the number of shares of Common Stock in effect prior to such adjustment; provided, however, that the Company shall deliver to the Holder a due bill or other appropriate instrument evidencing the Holder’s right to receive such additional shares of Common Stock upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment.
 
D. Whenever there shall be an adjustment as provided in this Article “5”, the Company shall within five (5) business days thereafter cause written notice thereof to be sent to the Holder pursuant to Paragraph “C” of Article “13” of this Warrant, which notice shall be accompanied by an officer’s certificate setting forth the number of Shares issuable and the Exercise Price thereof after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment and the computation thereof, which officer’s certificate shall be conclusive evidence of the correctness of any such adjustment absent manifest error.
 
6. NOTICES.
 
A. Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price and any increase or decrease in the number of Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant in accordance with Article “4” hereof, then, and in each such case, the Company, within five (5) business days thereafter, shall give notice pursuant to Paragraph “C” of Article “13” of this Warrant, which notice shall state the Exercise Price as adjusted and, if applicable, the increased or decreased number of Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation of each.
 
B. If, while this Warrant is outstanding, Tangiers requests the Company to furnish a current statement of the Company’s number of issued and outstanding shares of common stock, the Company shall arrange to give such a statement to Tangiers pursuant to Paragraph “C” of Article “13” of this Warrant, within two (2) business days after the Company’s receipt of such request from Tangiers.  If the Company fails to timely provide such a statement pursuant to this Paragraph “B” of this Article “6” of this Warrant within five (5) business days of the issuance of the Opinion, the Company agrees to pay the Holder an additional amount of five hundred ($500) dollars per day for each day that delivery of said statement is delayed.  The Company acknowledges that it would be extremely difficult or impracticable to determine the Holder’s actual damages and costs resulting from the delay in providing said statement and the inclusion herein of any such additional amounts are the agreed upon liquidated damages representing a reasonable estimate of those damages and costs and do not constitute a penalty.
 
7. FRACTIONAL SHARES.  The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of shares of Common Stock or other capital stock of the Company upon the exercise of this Warrant.  If any fraction of a share of Common Stock would be issuable on the exercise of this Warrant (or specified portions thereof), the Company shall pay lieu of such fraction an amount in cash equal to the same fraction of the current market price on the date of the exercise of this Warrant.
 
8. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY.  The Company represents and warrants to the Holder as follows:
 
A. This Warrant has been duly authorized and executed by the Company and is a valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable in accordance with its terms;
 
B. The Shares have been duly authorized and reserved for issuance by the Company and, when issued in accordance with the terms hereof, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable;
 
C. The rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions granted to or imposed upon the Shares and the holders thereof are as set forth in the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, a true and complete copy of which has been delivered to the original Holder of this Warrant; and
 
D. The execution and delivery of this Warrant are not, and the issuance of the Shares upon exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms hereof will not be, inconsistent with the Company's Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, as amended.
 
 
4

 
 
9. RIGHTS OF STOCKHOLDERS.  No holder of this Warrant shall be entitled, as a warrant holder, to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of Common Stock or any other securities of the Company which may at any time be issuable on the exercise hereof for any purpose, nor shall anything contained herein be construed to confer upon the Holder of this Warrant, as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether upon any recapitalization, issuance of stock, reclassification of stock, change of par value, consolidation, merger, conveyance, or otherwise) or to receive notice of meetings, or to receive dividends or subscription rights or otherwise until this Warrant shall have been exercised and the Shares purchasable upon the exercise hereof shall have become deliverable, as provided herein.
 
10. REGISTRATION.
 
A. If the Company shall at any time seek to register or qualify any of its common stock or the securities holdings of any of its controlling shareholders, on each such occasion it shall, without cost or expense, include all of the Holder’s shares in such registration or qualification.  The Company shall keep the registration effective until such time as the Holder has sold its shares or the shares are eligible to be transferred without restriction pursuant to the provisions of Rule 144 which was promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to §4(1) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Rule 144”).  The Company agrees to provide an opinion of counsel with respect to any sales of the shares by the Holder if such sale is permissible under Rule 144.
 
B. All expenses in connection with preparing and filing any registration statement under Paragraph “A” of this Article “10” of this Warrant shall be borne in full by the Company; provided, however, that the Holder shall pay any and all underwriting commissions and expenses and the fees and expenses of any legal counsel selected by the Holder to represent him with respect to the sale of the Securities.
 
11. OPINIONS.  The Company shall, at its cost, provide the appropriate opinion letter to be issued by the Company’s counsel in compliance with the provisions of Rule 144 with respect to the transfer or sale of the Shares, if such transfer or sale is permissible under Rule 144.  Furthermore, the Company shall notify its transfer agent that counsel of the selection of the Holder is authorized to issue said opinion letter.  If the Company fails to timely provide or approve legal opinion pursuant to this Article “11” of this Warrant within five (5) business days of the issuance of the Opinion, the Company agrees to pay the Holder an additional amount of five hundred dollars ($500) per day for each day that said opinion or approvals are delayed.  The Company acknowledges that it would be extremely difficult or impracticable to determine the Holder’s actual damages and costs resulting from the delay in providing opinion or approvals for said sale(s) of securities and the inclusion herein of any such additional amounts are the agreed upon liquidated damages representing a reasonable estimate of those damages and costs and do not constitute a penalty.
 
12. IRREVOCABLE WARRANT.  The Company acknowledges and agrees that this Warrant has been duly authorized by all necessary action by its Board of Directors, and has been irrevocably issued.  Accordingly, the Company further agrees that it shall not challenge or take any action with respect to the validity of this Warrant on any basis and agrees to reimburse the Holder for all legal fees and costs incurred by the Holder with respect to any challenge to the validity of this Warrant by the Company.
 
13. MISCELLANEOUS.
 
A. Headings contained in this Warrant are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Warrant.
 
B. If any provision which is contained in this Warrant should, for any reason, be held to be invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the laws of any jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Warrant and this Warrant shall be construed as if such invalid or unenforceable provision had not been contained herein.
 
C. Any notice or other communication required or permitted hereunder shall be sufficiently given if sent by (i) mail by (a) certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested and (b) first class mail, postage prepaid (ii) overnight delivery with confirmation of delivery or (iii) facsimile transmission with an original mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed as follows:
