This Form 8-K and other reports filed by Croff Enterprises, Inc. (“Croff” or the "Company") from time-to- time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (collectively the “Filings”) contain forward-looking statements and information that are based upon beliefs of, and information currently available to, the Company's management, as well as estimates and assumptions made by the Company's management. When used in the Filings, the words "anticipate", "believe", "estimate", "expect", "future", "intend", "plan" or the negative of those terms and similar expressions as they relate to the Company or the Company's management identify forward-looking statements. Such statements reflect the current view of the Company with respect to future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors relating to the Company's industry, operations and results of operations and any businesses that may be acquired by the Company.  Should one or more of those risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ significantly from those anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended or planned.

Item 5.01 Changes in Control of Registrant.

On June 17, 2008, Terrace Lane, LLC (“Terrace Lane”) purchased an aggregate of 146,000 shares of Croff’s common stock from Gerald L. Jensen, Julian D. Jensen, Jensen Development Company, Jenco Petroleum Corporation and C.S. Finance, LLC (the “Stock Purchase”).  The aggregate amount paid by Terrace Lane to the sellers was $163,579.40 in cash, all of which came from Terrace Lane’s personal funds.  As a result of the Stock Purchase, Terrace Lane now owns approximately 28.3% of Croff’s issued and outstanding shares (excluding treasury shares).  Concurrent with the Stock Purchase, Croff’s Board of Directors appointed Terrace Lane’s nominees to vacant positions on the Board of Directors.  Following those appointments, all of Croff’s pre-Stock Purchase officers and directors resigned from their positions with the Company.  For additional information regarding the departure and appointment of officers and directors in connection with the Stock Purchase, see Item 5.02 below.

As a result of the foregoing, Terrace Lane has taken control of the Company.  Except for the departures and appointments noted above that took place as part of the Stock Purchase, there were no arrangements or understandings among members of both the former and new control groups and their associates with respect to the election of directors or other matters relating to the change in control of the Company.

Croff was a shell company prior to the Stock Purchase and remains a shell company after the Stock Purchase.  As a result, other than the changes described above with respect to (i) the transfer of shares in the Stock Purchase and (ii) the concurrent officer and director departures and appointments, the information provided by Croff in its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, and its Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2008, continues to be accurate.

Croff does not know of any arrangements which may, at a subsequent date, result in a further change in control of Croff.
