FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Annual Report on Form 10-K filed by Glen Rose Petroleum Corporation (referred to as “Glen Rose”, the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”) contains forward-looking statements. These are statements regarding financial and operating performance and results and other statements that are not historical facts. The words “expect,” “project,” “estimate,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “forecast,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Certain important risks could cause results to differ materially from those anticipated by some of the forward-looking statements. Some, but not all, of these risks include, among other things:
   
we may be unable to obtain the financing we need to continue our operations;
 
   
there may be changes in regulatory requirements that adversely affect our business;
 
   
there may be adverse changes in the prices for oil and gas that adversely affect our business;
 
   
the recovery methods that we use in our oil and gas operations may not be successful; and
 
   
other uncertainties, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control.
We do not intend to update forward-looking statements. You should refer to and carefully review the information in future documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

PART I
As used herein, reference to “Glen Rose”, “the Company,” “management,” “we” and “our” refer to Glen Rose Petroleum Company and, where appropriate, its subsidiaries.
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Glen Rose Petroleum Corporation is a Delaware corporation formed in 2008. The Company was previously United Heritage Corporation, a Utah corporation that was formed in 1981 and was reincorporated in Delaware in 2008. The reincorporation entailed a reincorporation merger agreement between Glen Rose Petroleum Company and United Heritage Corporation, but there were no substantive changes in assets or personnel and we also have continuous financial reporting through the reincorporation. We are an independent producer of natural gas and crude oil based in Dallas, Texas. We operate our business through our wholly owned subsidiaries, UHC Petroleum Corporation (“Petroleum”), and UHC Petroleum Services Corporation (“Services”), which are sometimes collectively referred to in this report as the “subsidiaries.” Our other subsidiaries are UHC New Mexico Corporation and National Heritage Sales Corporation, which formerly sold food products. UHC New Mexico Corporation and National Heritage Sales Corporation are no longer operating.
Subsequent Events to the year ended March 31, 2008
With the successful conclusion of the 14C: the Company
   
Glen Rose Petroleum Corporation was incorporated in Delaware exclusively for the purpose of entering into a Reincorporation Merger Agreement with United Heritage which provides that Glen Rose will be the surviving corporation, and will assume all of our assets and liabilities, including obligations under our outstanding indebtedness and contracts. United Heritage Corporation will cease to exist as a corporate entity. Its board of directors and our officers will become the board of directors and officers of Glen Rose for identical terms of office. Its subsidiaries will become the subsidiaries of Glen Rose.
In addition, the Company reported:
   
In January 2008 our board of directors resolved to raise funds for our operations through an offering made to accredited investors. We sold a total of 666,667 shares of our common stock at a price of $0.75 per share for gross proceeds of $500,000.
 
   
The Company had option agreements to ex-employees and directors which exercised at $1.50 and $2.91 exercise prices. These options were modified to extend the expiration date to March 31, 2009, to add a put feature where the option holder can put the option back to the Company for the difference between $4.00 per share and the purchase price between April 1, 2008 and April 10, 2008, and to add a call feature whereby the Company can call the option for the difference between $7.50 and the purchase price. Since the put feature does not subject the holder to the normal risks of share ownership, the options the Company has classified the put options as liability awards and recorded at fair value. A liability and corresponding expense of $2,727,186 has been recorded in the prior financial statements. A majority of these option puts were exercised. The Company offered the option put holders the same conversion as Walter Mize elected on January 16, 2008. On July 3, 2008, owners of approximately 54% of these options elected to convert the Company’s put obligation to restricted common stock at $0.75 per share, subject to a voting trust and first right of refusal to Blackwood Ventures LLC. Approximately 41% elected to continue the option period until December 31, 2009, for consideration of 10% per annum, payable quarterly with a provision for payment in kind. Approximately 5% did not make an election and their units are held as current liability pending resolution. These transactions have not closed, and are contingent upon the completion of the definitive agreements. Should these transactions close, the Company’s liabilities would be reduced by $1,166,669 using the values as of March 31, 2008.

May 27, 2008, the Company signed a letter of intent (‘LOI’), to sell for $2.5 million a 50% interest in 2,560 acres (25%) of its Wardlaw Field to Wind Hydrogen Limited (‘WHL’), a publicly-listed company on the Australian Stock Exchange (‘ASX’). The Wardlaw lease is a 10,502 gross acre field located in Edwards County, Texas. The WHL joint venture is subject to the respective Parties’ satisfactory due diligence, signing of definitive agreements, board approval and WHL shareholder approval. In addition, WHL has purchased two options to expand the venture for 2,560 acres each. The WHL joint venture has received WHL shareholder approval, preliminary due diligence is completed, and signing of a definitive Participation Agreements is contemplated by the end of July.
 
   
On May 23, 2008, the Company entered into an Agreement to Convert Debt with Richardson & Patel, LLP pursuant to which Richardson & Patel LLP agreed to accept 205,349 shares of our common stock in full payment for legal services previously rendered through for the first quarter of the calendar year. The debt was converted at the rate of $0.85 per share. On May 23, 2008, the closing price of our common stock was $0.98.
Material Events during the Fiscal Year
Control Purchased by Blackwood Ventures, LLC.
On September 26, 2007 Mr. Walter G. Mize, formerly our largest shareholder, entered into a Restated Stock Sale Agreement which was effective as of September 18, 2007 pursuant to which Blackwood Ventures, LLC (“BVL”) purchased from Mr. Mize (i) 3,759,999 shares of our common stock, (ii) a warrant for the purchase of 953,333 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $3.15 per share, (iii) a warrant for the purchase of 1,000,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $3.36 per share, and (iv) a warrant for the purchase of 953,333 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $3.75 per share. The purchase price for the securities was $5,017,000. BVL purchased the securities by transferring to Mr. Mize $375,000 in cash and two promissory notes, one in the face amount of $3,767,000 and the second in the face amount of $875,000. The funds transferred to Mr. Mize from BVL to purchase the securities were Blackwood’s personal funds. The members of BVL are Blackwood Capital Limited (“BCL”), DK True Energy Development Ltd., Emes Capital Partners LLC, Rabbi Tzvi Eichen, Berg Family Trust, Howard Berg Defined Benefit Plan, Howard Berg and Avi Masliansky. The managing members of BVL are DK True Energy Development Ltd., Emes Capital Partners LLC and BCL. Dr. David Kahn controls DK True Energy Development Ltd.
On December 19, 2007, the Company entered into an Agreement to Convert Debt with BVL, our largest shareholder, pursuant to which BVL agreed to accept (i) 48,750 shares of our common stock, representing a price of $0.80 per share, and (ii) a warrant to purchase 36,563 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.40 per share in return for the cancellation of $39,000 of debt owed by us to BVL resulting from its prior discharge of certain of our accounts payable. The warrant will have a term of seven years. On December 18, 2007, the last trading day immediately prior to the execution of the Agreement to Convert Debt, the last sale price of our common stock was $0.92.
Blackwood Capital Ltd. (“BCL”) is a Gibraltar chartered company owned by a family trust the beneficiaries of which are the members of the Taylor Kimmins family, and Mr. Andrew Taylor Kimmins is an authorized signatory. On January 15, 2008, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with BCL effective September 1, 2007, for a term of one year, which can be terminated by either party on 45 days notice, for cash compensation of $15,000 per month, plus expense reimbursement. In addition, the Company issued a warrant for the purchase of 1,500,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.05 per share. The term of the warrant is four years and the warrant has a cashless exercise provision, at the holder’s election, such that fewer than 1,500,000 shares may be issued upon full exercise. On January 15, 2008, the closing price of our common stock was $0.82.
On March 11, 2008, BVL purchased an additional 566,038 shares of our common stock for $300,000.
On April 17 2008, BVL purchased 200,000 shares of our common stock for $150,000.

Table of Contents

For purposes of determining ownership and control, both BVL and BCL are deemed to be affiliates and therefore are combined. As of March 31, 2008, the Company had 9,424,214 shares of common stock outstanding. If all of the shares of common stock, including those represented by warrants or options, were issued as a result of the approval of items 1 through 11 for the 14-C approved by shareholders on May 20, 2008, the Company would have a total of 30,455,969 shares of common stock outstanding. Of this amount, BVL would own 7,655,028 shares, or approximately 25.1%, of our common stock, DK True Energy Development Ltd. would own 5,250,000 shares, or approximately 17.2% of our common stock and BCL (an affiliate of BVL) would own 1,500,000 shares, or approximately 5% of our common stock. Collectively, then, these entities would own a total of 14,405,028 shares, or approximately 47.3% of our outstanding common stock
Lothian Oil Inc. Bankruptcy Release of Controlling Interest
On June 6, 2007, a Company subsidiary entered into an agreement with Lothian Oil, Inc., our then-largest shareholder, whereby the Company agreed to transfer restricted securities to Lothian in full and final payment of a loan with an outstanding balance of $2,009,917 in principal and $434,111 in accrued interest.
On June 13, 2007 our then-largest shareholder, Lothian Oil Inc. (“Lothian”), filed a petition under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.
On July 30, 2007, the Lothian Bankruptcy Court entered its Order Granting Motion of Lothian Oil Inc. to Approve Compromise and Settlement of Claims By and Between Lothian Oil Inc. and Walter G. Mize (Docket No. 217), approving the Mize Settlement, and its Amended Order Granting Motion of Lothian Oil Inc. to Approve Compromise and Settlement Claims By and Between Lothian Oil Inc. and United Heritage Corporation (Docket No. 216), approving the Final United Heritage Corporation Settlement.
The Mize Settlement settled a dispute between Mize and the Debtors, regarding ownership of stock issued by our predecessor corporation, United Heritage Corporation, and the enforcement of a promissory note in the amount of in excess of $5.3 million, allegedly due from Lothian Oil. The UHC Settlement occurred on July 31, 2007, (“the Mize/ United Heritage Corporation closing”). At the Mize/ United Heritage Corporation Closing: (i) Lothian Oil assigned shares and warrants in United Heritage Corporation valued at approximately $2.6 million dollars to Mize, (ii) Mize executed a complete release of any and all secured and unsecured claims against Lothian Oil and made a payment to Lothian oil in the amount of $250,000, (iii) Lothian Oil released United Heritage Corporation from its obligations for intercompany debts totaling approximately $1.8 million dollars, and (iv) United Heritage Corporation and Lothian Oil executed mutual releases of all claims against the other.
$600,000 Private Placement of Common Stock with Warrants
On November 27, 2007 the Company completed a $600,000 private placement to accredited investors, for the issuance of 800,000 common shares and 5 year callable warrant to purchase up to 400,000 shares, at an exercise price of $1.40 per share. The warrant agreement has a cashless exercise provision, at the election of the holder, such that fewer shares than the face amount of the warrants may be issued upon full exercise. The net proceeds were approximately $503,909, and debt conversion by BVL of $96,000.
Conversion of Debt to Equity
On December 19, 2007, the Company entered into an Agreement to Convert Debt with Richardson & Patel, LLP pursuant to which Richardson & Patel LLP agreed to accept (i) 296,856 shares of our common stock and (ii) a warrant for the purchase of 222,642 shares of our common stock in full payment of $237,485.15 in legal services previously rendered. The warrant has an exercise price of $1.40 per share; a term of seven years and a cashless exercise provision, at the holders’ election, such that fewer than 222,642 shares may be issued upon full exercise. The debt was converted at the rate of $0.80 per share. On December 18, 2007, the closing price of our common stock was $0.92.

The warrant will have a term of seven years. On December 18, 2007, the last trading day immediately prior to the execution of the Agreement to Convert Debt, the last sale price of our common stock was $0.92.
Conversion of “Put” Liability
On January 15, 2008, the Company entered into an agreement to convert an $833,335 option put right held by Walter G. Mize (“Mize”) into 1,111,113 shares of the Company’s common stock and a three-year warrant to purchase 555,556 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share (the “Mize Agreement”). Mize’s obligation to convert his put right into securities of the Company is conditioned on the Company obtaining a favorable decision by the Panel as to the continued listing of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market. The conditional favorable ruling was announced in a press release on March 18, 2008.
NASDAQ Compliance
On November 30, 2007 we received a letter from Nasdaq noting our failure to regain compliance by September 30, 2007 and indicating that trading of our common stock was to be suspended at the opening of business on December 11, 2007 unless we appealed the determination. We appealed the determination and a hearing took place before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”) on January 17, 2008. As of December 31, 2007, as reported in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB for the quarter then ended, our shareholders’ equity amount complies with Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(3) and we believe that we now have the capacity to maintain compliance with this requirement. On March 17, 2008 we received a letter from the Panel indicating that the Panel has determined to continue the listing of our common stock, subject to the condition that our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008 demonstrates compliance with the $2.5 million minimum shareholders’ equity requirement. If we fail to demonstrate shareholders’ equity of $2.5 million or greater, the Panel will promptly conduct a hearing with respect to the failure and our securities may be immediately delisted from The Nasdaq Stock Market. However, our audited financial statements for the period ending March 31, 2008 state that the Company had shareholder equity of $3,116,495 which exceeds the threshold required in the Nasdaq notice. If we fail to comply with any requirement for continued listing other than shareholders’ equity, we will be provided with written notice of the deficiency and an opportunity to present a definitive plan to regain compliance. The Panel rendered a conditional determination in our favor on or about March 18, 2008, with respect to our continued listing.
On January 31, 2008 we received a letter from Nasdaq indicating that, for a period of 30 consecutive business days, the bid price of our common stock closed below the minimum $1.00 per share requirement for continued inclusion under Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(4). In a letter dated June 13, 2008, Nasdaq informed us that we were compliant with Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(4) and that Nasdaq was closing the matter.
Black Sea Investments, Ltd. Lawsuit.
On November 21, 2007, a jury in Johnson County, Texas rendered a verdict in a trial in favor of the Company against Black Sea Investments, Ltd., Bradford A. Phillips, Clifton Phillips, Ryan T. Phillips, and F. Terry Shumate. On February 15, 2008, the 249th District Court in Johnson County, Texas entered a judgment in the amount of $4,020,551.05 with interest accruing at a rate of $583.01 per day until paid against these defendants in favor of the Company.
On March 17, 2008, the individual defendants filed a motion for new trial which was overruled by operation of law on April 30, 2008. The individual defendants then timely filed a Notice of Appeal for the matter to be heard by Texas’ Tenth Court of Appeals in Waco, Texas. In Texas Appellants must file an appeal bond to appeal in the full amount of the judgment plus costs and interest for the anticipated appeal length, but the bond may also be limited to one-half of an individual appellant’s net worth. Appellants seeking to file a bond based on net worth must also file an affidavit in support which may be contested by the Company. The appellate court also has the discretion to set an appeal bond in an amount that would not cause substantial harm to an individual after notice and hearing.

The 2008 Fiscal Year
On-Going Operations
Through our subsidiary, UHC Petroleum Corporation, we operate the Wardlaw Field, located approximately 28 miles west of Rocksprings in Edwards County, Texas. The Wardlaw Field lies in the southeast portion of the Val Verde Basin with oil production from the field coming from the Glen Rose formation at a depth of less than 600 feet. The leaseholds consist of approximately 10,502 gross acres of which approximately 10,360 gross acres are undeveloped. The leaseholds include 130 wellbores. Of these wells, approximately 44 are currently capable of producing. We are in the process of evaluating the remaining wells. Petroleum has a gross working interest of 100% and a net revenue interest of 75% of the Wardlaw Field production. The original lease term was extended by a period of 90 days each time a well was drilled, therefore, based on prior drilling, the primary lease term is currently extended to 2013.
Production in the Wardlaw Field is done via primary production methods and using nitrogen injection under pressure and progressive cavity pumps. Our goal has been to develop the property to fully exploit all of their resources. Previously, the Company has not been able to do properly develop the property because of a lack of working capital and newly developed technological and chemical invocations.
The following table shows the total net oil and gas production from Texas for each of the three most recent fiscal years. Oil production is shown in barrels (Bbl), and natural gas production is shown in thousand cubic feet (Mcf). As of March 30, 2007 we no longer owned the New Mexico properties.

Competition
The oil and gas industry is highly competitive. We compete with other oil and gas companies and investors in searching for, and obtaining, future desirable prospects, in securing contracts with third parties for the development of oil and gas properties, in securing contracts for the purchase or rental of drilling rigs and other equipment necessary for drilling operations, and in purchasing equipment necessary for the completion of wells, as well as in the marketing of any oil and gas which may be discovered. Many of our competitors are larger than we are and have substantially greater access to capital and technical resources than we do, giving them a substantial competitive advantage. We do not represent a significant presence in the oil and gas industry.
Regulation
As described below, oil and gas operations are subject to various types of regulation by state and federal agencies. Legislation affecting the oil and gas industry is under constant review for amendment or expansion. Also, numerous departments and agencies, both federal and state, are authorized by statute to issue rules and regulations binding on the oil and gas industry and its individual members, some of which carry substantial penalties for failure to comply. The regulatory burden on the oil and gas industry increases the cost of doing business and, consequently, affects our profitability.
State Regulation of Oil and Gas Production. The State of Texas regulates the production and sale of natural gas and crude oil, including requirements for obtaining drilling permits, the method of developing new fields, the spacing and operation of wells and the prevention of waste of oil and gas resources. In addition, most states regulate the rate of production and may establish maximum daily production allowable for wells on a market demand or conservation basis. To date, we have not found these regulations burdensome to comply with.
Environmental Regulations. Our activities are subject to federal and state laws and regulations governing environmental quality and pollution control. These regulations have a material effect on our operations, but the cost of such compliance has not been material to date. However, we believe that the oil and gas industry may experience increasing liabilities and risks under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, as well as other federal, state and local environmental laws, as a result of increased enforcement of environmental laws by various regulatory agencies. As an “owner” or “operator” of property where hazardous materials may exist or be present, we, like all others in the petroleum industry, could be liable for fines and/or “clean-up” costs, regardless of whether the release of a hazardous substance was due to our conduct.
Employees

As of March 31, 2008, we had five full time employees, four in the field and one in NYC. In
addition, we have consulting agreements with four officers or employees which account for over half
or more of their business activity. We also use two outside consultants, not including legal and
investment banking advisors.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
On January 15, 2008 we moved our corporate headquarters to Suite 200, 4925 Greenville Avenue, Dallas, Texas 75206. This is not a long term lease.
Petroleum leases an oil field in Edwards County, Texas consisting of approximately 10,502 gross acres of which 7,770 net acres are undeveloped. Pursuant to the leases, Petroleum receives a 100% gross working interest from production. The field is located in the southeast portion of the Val Verde Basin, 28 miles west of the city of Rocksprings, Texas.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Black Sea Investments, Ltd. Lawsuit.
On November 21, 2007, a jury in Johnson County, Texas rendered a verdict in a trial in favor of the Company against Black Sea Investments, Ltd., Bradford A. Phillips, Clifton Phillips, Ryan T. Phillips, and F. Terry Shumate. On February 15, 2008, the 249th District Court in Johnson County, Texas entered a judgment in the amount of $4,020,551.05 with interest accruing at a rate of $583.01 per day until paid against these defendants in favor of the Company.
On March 17, 2008, the individual defendants filed a motion for new trial which was overruled by operation of law on April 30, 2008. The individual defendants then timely filed a Notice of Appeal for the matter to be heard by Texas’ Tenth Court of Appeals in Waco, Texas. In Texas Appellants must file an appeal bond to appeal in the full amount of the judgment plus costs and interest for the anticipated appeal length, but the bond may also be limited to one-half of an individual appellant’s net worth. Appellants seeking to file a bond based on net worth must also file an affidavit in support which may be contested by the Company. The appellate court also has the discretion to set an appeal bond in an amount that would not cause substantial harm to an individual after notice and hearing.
The Company can provide no assurance that this judgment will withstand appeal or that, if upheld, the Company will ever realize the collection of money from this judgment. The Company shares in these proceeds of the collection of this judgment with its attorney, and 50% of the net balance with the Walter Mize Estate.
Other
The Company does not have any litigation current or contemplated. However, the Company has terminated Geoff Beatson, taken issue with various vendors, and has a royalty owner contest its permit filings with the Texas Railroad Commission. Any of which could result in litigation, which the Company will vigorously pursue and defend.
The Company had option agreements to ex-employees and directors which exercised at $1.50 and $2.91 exercise prices. These options were modified to extend the expiration date to March 31, 2009, to add a put feature where the option holder can put the option back to the Company for the difference between $4.00 per share and the purchase price between April 1, 2008 and April 10, 2008, and to add a call feature whereby the Company can call the option for the difference between $7.50 and the purchase price. Since the put feature does not subject the holder to the normal risks of share ownership, the options the Company has classified the put options as liability awards and recorded at fair value. A liability and corresponding expense of $2,727,186 has been recorded in the prior financial statements. A majority of these option puts were exercised. The Company offered the option put holders the same conversion as Walter Mize elected on January 16, 2008. On July 3, 2008, owners of approximately 54% of these options elected to convert the Company’s put obligation to restricted common stock at $0.75 per share, subject to a voting trust and first right of refusal to Blackwood Ventures LLC. Approximately 41% elected to continue the option period until December 31, 2009, for consideration of 10% per annum, payable quarterly with a provision for payment in kind. Approximately 5% did not make an election and their units are held as current liability pending resolution. These transactions have not closed, and are contingent upon the completion of the definitive agreements. Should these transactions close, the Company’s liabilities would be reduced by $1,166,669.

Sales of Unregistered Securities
On November 28, 2007 the Company completed the sale and issuance of units having a total gross value of $600,000 in a private placement to accredited investors (the “November Offering”). Each unit was comprised of (i) 32,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and (ii) a 5 year callable warrant to purchase up to 52,253 shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to certain vesting requirements, at an exercise price of $1.40 per share. The warrants may not be exercised until the Company obtains shareholder approval of their issuance. The Company sold and issued a total of 21 units at a price of $24,000 per unit, for net cash proceeds of approximately $504,000. The Company also converted debt in the amount of $96,000 owed to Blackwood, its largest shareholder, into 4 units. The per share price of the common stock included in the units was less than the per share book or market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of sale. No underwriting discounts or commissions were paid in connection with the November Offering. The Company is obligated to register the shares underlying the warrants, subject to compliance with Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
On December 19, 2007, the Company entered into an Agreement to Convert Debt with Richardson & Patel, LLP pursuant to which Richardson & Patel LLP agreed to accept (i) 296,856 shares of our common stock and (ii) a warrant for the purchase of 222,642 shares of our common stock in full payment of $237,485.15 in legal services previously rendered. The warrant has an exercise price of $1.40 per share, a term of seven years and a cashless exercise provision, at the holders’ election, such that fewer than 222,642 shares may be issued upon full exercise. The debt was converted at the rate of $0.80 per share. On December 18, 2007, the closing price of our common stock was $0.92.
On December 19, 2007, the Company entered into an Agreement to Convert Debt with Blackwood Ventures LLC (“BVL”), our largest shareholder, pursuant to which BVL agreed to accept (i) 48,750 shares of our common stock, representing a price of $0.80 per share, and (ii) a warrant to purchase 36,563 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.40 per share in return for the cancellation of $39,000 of debt owed by us to BVL resulting from its prior discharge of certain of our accounts payable. The warrant will have a term of seven years. On December 18, 2007, the last trading day immediately prior to the execution of the Agreement to Convert Debt, the last sale price of our common stock was $0.92.

On January 15, 2008 and as further stated above, the Company entered into an agreement to convert an $833,335 option put right held by Walter G. Mize (“Mize”) into 1,111,113 shares of the Company’s common stock and a three-year warrant to purchase 555,556 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share.
On March 11, 2008, BVL purchased an additional 566,038 shares of our common stock at $.53 per share.
The Company had option agreements to ex-employees and directors which exercised at $1.50 and $2.91 exercise prices. These options were modified to extend the expiration date to March 31, 2009, to add a put feature where the option holder can put the option back to the Company for the difference between $4.00 per share and the purchase price between April 1, 2008 and April 10, 2008, and to add a call feature whereby the Company can call the option for the difference between $7.50 and the purchase price. Since the put feature does not subject the holder to the normal risks of share ownership, the options the Company has classified the put options as liability awards and recorded at fair value. A liability and corresponding expense of $2,727,186 has been recorded in the prior financial statements. A majority of these option puts were exercised. The Company offered the option put holders the same conversion as Walter Mize elected on January 16, 2008. On July 3, 2008, owners of approximately 54% of these options elected to convert the Company’s put obligation to restricted common stock at $0.75 per share, subject to a voting trust and first right of refusal to Blackwood Ventures LLC. Approximately 41% elected to continue the option period until December 31, 2009, for consideration of 10% per annum, payable quarterly with a provision for payment in kind. Approximately 5% did not make an election and their units are held as current liability pending resolution. These transactions have not closed, and are contingent upon the completion of the definitive agreements. Should these transactions close, the Company’s liabilities would be reduced by $1,166,669.
On July 11, 2008, the Company agreed in principle on a term sheet with C. Scott Wilson by which Mr. Wilson’s 500,000 outstanding options would be exchanged for 65,000 restricted common shares. This transaction is conditional upon negotiating and signing a final options exchange agreement, but the Company currently anticipates that the transaction is likely to close.
Equity Compensation Plan Information
The 2008 Equity Incentive Plan In January 2008, our board of directors approved and adopted the United Heritage Corporation 2008 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). We have reserved 5,000,000 shares of common stock for awards that will be granted from the Plan. The awards are subject to adjustment in the event of stock dividends, recapitalizations, stock splits, reverse stock splits, subdivisions, combinations, reclassifications or similar changes in our capital structure. The Plan became effective upon adoption by the board, and, unless earlier terminated in accordance with the terms and provisions thereof, will remain in effect for a period of ten years from the date of adoption. As of March 6, 2008, the last trading day immediately prior to the Notice Date, the shares of common stock reserved for the Plan had a market value of $0.63 per share.
During this robust period in the oil and gas industry, it is difficult to hire experience professionals. Consequently, in May 2008, the Company’s Shareholders approved a Stock Incentive Plan for the express purpose of providing economic incentives to its officers and employees.
The 2002 Consultant Equity Plan. This plan has not been approved by our shareholders. Officers and directors of United Heritage are not eligible to receive awards from this plan. Typically, awards are granted to third parties who render services to us that do not relate to capital raising or shareholder relations. The term of the plan is 10 years. We have set aside 333,334 shares of our common stock for the purpose of granting awards under this plan. Awards may consist of options to purchase common stock or grants of common stock. The plan is governed by our Board of Directors. Within the parameters set by the plan, the Board of Directors decides to whom awards will be given, the manner of award to be given, the number of shares to be included in an award, the term of an option, whether or not an award will be subject to vesting conditions and, if an exercise price or purchase price is to be paid, the Board of Directors establishes the price to be paid and the manner of acceptable payment. The Board of Directors may amend the plan or discontinue it. The Board of Directors may modify awards, so long as any such modification is agreed to by the recipient of the award. We may reserve the right to repurchase grants of restricted securities that are purchased by a recipient. If we reserve such right and elect to exercise it, we must pay the greater of fair market value or the purchase price for the common stock. Alternatively, we may reserve the right to repurchase the securities by returning the purchase price to the recipient however, this rights lapse in equal increments over a period of five years. All the shares of common stock that were reserved for issuance under this plan have been issued.

ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION.
Management’s discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition is based upon our consolidated financial statements. These statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These principles require management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate these estimates based on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
OVERVIEW
We are an independent producer of natural gas and crude oil based in Dallas, Texas. We produce from properties we lease in Texas. We acquired our Texas property, which includes 102 wellbores (of which approximately 44 wells are capable of producing), in February 1997. Our plan has been to develop these properties by reworking many of the existing wells and drilling additional wells. However, the revenues we earned did not provide us with enough money to implement our development plans.
During the 2008 fiscal year, the sale price of oil produced by our properties in Texas increased by $40.76 a barrel, to $79.09 a barrel, from $38.33 a barrel during the 2007 fiscal year. Production costs during the 2008 fiscal year decreased from $144.79 a barrel during the 2007 fiscal year to $135.87 a barrel, as a result of low average daily production rate relative to fixed cost.
Except as otherwise discussed in this Annual Report, we know of no trends, events or uncertainties that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material impact on our short-term or long-term liquidity or on our net sales or revenues from continuing operations.
During the 2009 fiscal year, our plan is to continue redevelopment of our properties if we are successful in finding other funding sources or, alternatively, we will seek investors or buyers.

Going Concern Status
Our financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. We have incurred substantial losses from operations and we have a working capital deficit which raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We sustained a net loss of $3,251,650 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008 and, as of the same period, we had a working capital deficit of $2,714,405. We must obtain financing in order to develop our properties and alleviate the doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The reported financial results and disclosures were determined using the significant accounting policies, practices and estimates described below.
Oil and Gas Properties
Proved Reserves — Proved reserves are defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission as those volumes of crude oil, condensate, natural gas liquids and natural gas that geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty are recoverable from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions. Proved developed reserves are volumes expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods. Although our engineers are knowledgeable of and follow the guidelines for reserves established by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the estimation of reserves requires engineers to make a significant number of assumptions based on professional judgment. Reserve estimates have been updated at least annually and consider recent production levels and other technical information about each well. Estimated reserves are often subject to future revision, which could be substantial, based on the availability of additional information including: reservoir performance, new geological and geophysical data, additional drilling, technological advancements, price changes and other economic factors. Changes in oil and gas prices can lead to a decision to start-up or shut-in production, which can lead to revisions to reserve quantities. Reserve revisions in turn cause adjustments in the depletion rates utilized by the Company. The Company cannot predict what reserve revisions may be required in future periods.
Depletion rates are determined based on reserve quantity estimates and the capitalized costs of producing properties. As the estimated reserves are adjusted, the depletion expense for a property will change, assuming no change in production volumes or the costs capitalized. Estimated reserves are used as the basis for calculating the expected future cash flows from a property, which are used to determine whether that property may be impaired. Reserves are also used to estimate the supplemental disclosure of the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows relating to oil and gas producing activities and reserve quantities disclosure in Footnote 20 to the consolidated financial statements. Changes in the estimated reserves are considered changes in estimates for accounting purposes and are reflected on a prospective basis.
We employ the full cost method of accounting for our oil and gas production assets, which are located in the southwestern United States. Under the full cost method, all costs associated with the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas properties are capitalized and accumulated in cost centers on a country-by-country basis. The sum of net capitalized costs and estimated future development and dismantlement costs for each cost center is depleted on the equivalent unit-of-production basis using proved oil and gas reserves as determined by independent petroleum engineers.
Net capitalized costs are limited to the lower of unamortized cost net of related deferred tax or the cost center ceiling. The cost center ceiling is defined as the sum of (i) estimated future net revenues, discounted at 10% per annum, from proved reserves, based on un-escalated year-end prices and costs; (ii) the cost of properties not being amortized; (iii) the lower of cost or market value of unproved properties included in the costs being amortized; less (iv) income tax effects related to differences between the book and tax basis of the oil and gas properties.

Table of Contents

The ceiling test is affected by a decrease in net cash flow from reserves due to higher operating or finding costs or reduction in market prices for natural gas and crude oil. These changes can reduce the amount of economically producible reserves. If the cost center ceiling falls below the capitalized cost for the cost center, we would be required to report an impairment of the cost center’s oil and gas assets at the reporting date.
Impairment of Properties — We will continue to monitor our long-lived assets recorded in oil and gas properties in the consolidated balance sheet to ensure they are fairly presented. We must evaluate our properties for potential impairment when circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset could exceed its fair value. A significant amount of judgment is involved in performing these evaluations since the results are based on estimated future events. Such events include a projection of future oil and natural gas sales prices, an estimate of the ultimate amount of recoverable oil and gas reserves that will be produced from a field, the timing of future production, future production costs, and future inflation. The need to test a property for impairment can be based on several factors, including a significant reduction in sales prices for oil and/or gas, unfavorable adjustment to reserves, or other changes to contracts, environmental regulations or tax laws. All of these factors must be considered when testing a property’s carrying value for impairment. We cannot predict whether impairment charges may be required in the future.
Revenue Recognition — Oil and gas production revenues are recognized at the point of sale. Production not sold at the end of the fiscal year is included as inventory.
Income Taxes — Included in our net deferred tax assets are approximately $16.4 million of future tax benefits from prior unused tax losses. Realization of these tax assets depends on sufficient future taxable income before the benefits expire. We are unsure if we will have sufficient future taxable income to utilize the loss carry-forward benefits before they expire. Therefore, we have provided an allowance for the full amount of the net deferred tax asset. Moreover, our recent change of majority ownership significantly reduced our ability to carry forward our net operating losses.
Accounting Estimates — Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. In particular, there is significant judgment required to estimate oil and gas reserves, impairment of unproved properties and asset retirement obligations. Actual results could vary significantly from the results that are obtained by using management’s estimates.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
It is customary for oil and gas companies to seek partners in developing their assets. In doing so, you dilute your ownership but share the risk and capital expense of development. Consequently, the Company has accepted a partner in a portion of the development of its Wardlaw Lease in Edwards County, Texas.
May 27, 2008, the Company signed a letter of intent (‘LOI’), to sell for $2.5 million a 50% working interest in 2,560 acres of its Wardlaw Field to Wind Hydrogen Limited (‘WHL’), a publicly-listed company on the Australian Stock Exchange (‘ASX’). The Wardlaw lease is a 10,502 gross acre field located in Edwards County, Texas. . In addition, WHL has purchased two options for $150,000 each to expand the venture for Phase 2 for 2,560 for $3 million for a 50% interest, and for Phase 3 for an additional 2,560 acres for $4 million for a 50% working interest. The WHL joint venture has received WHL shareholder approval, preliminary due diligence is completed, and signing of a definitive Participation Agreements is contemplated by mid July.
This Participation Agreement caused the Company to give up as much as one half interest in 7,680 acres (assuming all three options are exercised by WHL. However, for allowing a partner to earn up to a 37.5% Net Revenue ownership interest in the entire lease, we were carried, for approximately $2,500,000 of capital expenditures on Phase 1 of the development project.

Combined Results
Our revenues for the 2008 fiscal year were $62,025, a decrease of $952,709 or approximately 94%, as compared to revenues of $1,014,734 for the 2007 fiscal year. The decrease in sales revenue for the 2008 fiscal year was due primarily to the sale of the New Mexico operations which in turn decreased the volume of oil sold.
Total operating expenses of $3,558,744 reflects a decrease of $2,309,208, or approximately 39%, for the 2008 fiscal year as compared to operating expenses of $5,867,952 for the 2007 fiscal year. The significant operating expenses reported for the 2007 fiscal year resulted from the recognition the expense portion of warrants, stock options and puts. General and administrative expenses increased slightly by $16,639, or approximately 1.3%, from $1,317,456 in the 2007 fiscal year to $1,334,095 in the 2008 fiscal year. We also incurred a put option expense of $253,919, warrants expense of $1,156,049 and stock option expense of $476,857 during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008. We had no similar expense during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007. Interest expense was $70,117 in the 2008 fiscal year, as compared to $456,683 in the 2007 fiscal year.
Our net loss for the 2008 fiscal year was $3,251,650 a decrease of $8,183,484 or approximately 72%, as compared to a net loss of $11,435,134 for the 2007 fiscal year. We reported a significant decrease in net loss because we did not have a loss from the sale of oil and gas properties in the 2008 fiscal year, as compared to the loss from sale of oil and gas properties of $6,125,233 we incurred in the 2007 fiscal year.
Oil and Gas Activity
Oil and gas sales during the 2008 fiscal year were $62,025, a decrease of $952,709 or approximately 94%, as compared to sales of $1,014,734 during the 2007 fiscal year. The volume of production sold during the 2008 fiscal year was lower than the volume of production sold during the 2007 fiscal year due to the sale of the New Mexico oil and gas properties.

Receivables from a single oil and gas customer comprised 0% of our trade receivable balance at March 31, 2008. No allowance for doubtful accounts has been included in our financial statements since recorded amounts are determined to be fully collectible, based on management’s review of customer accounts, historical experience and other pertinent factors. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008, we recorded oil and gas sales to only one customer. However, buyers of crude oil are plentiful and can be easily replaced.
Production and operating expenses were $72,166 during the 2008 fiscal year as compared to $1,320,401 in production and operating expenses during the 2007 fiscal year, a decrease of $1,248,235 or approximately 95%. This significant decrease in production and operating expenses was the result of the sale of the New Mexico oil and gas properties. Depreciation and depletion expense for the 2008 fiscal year was $1,868 as compared to depreciation and depletion expense of $490,507 for the 2007 fiscal year, a decrease of $488,639 or approximately 99%. The decreased depreciation and depletion expense resulted primarily from the sale of the New Mexico oil and gas properties.
Over the last two fiscal years, changes in the Company’s net sales and revenue have been primarily impacted by strategic transactions such as asset sales rather than inflation or market conditions. On a going forward basis, high prices for hydrocarbons may stoke demand for oil and gas service providers, causing them to increase their costs.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Liquidity
Our sales revenues have not been adequate to support our operations
Our current assets decreased by $2,053,002 or approximately 93%, from $2,208,668 at March 31, 2007 to $155,666 at March 31, 2008. The decrease in our current assets was due primarily to cash and receivables related to the Asset Sale. Current liabilities decrease from $3,427,471 at March 31, 2007, to $ 2,870,071 at March 31, 2008, a decrease of $557,400 or approximately 16%. The decrease in current liabilities was due to decrease payables. Working capital was a deficit of $2,714,405 at March 31, 2008 as compared to the March 31, 2007 deficit of $1,218,803, an increase of $1,495,602 or approximately 122%. The increase deficit was due primarily to the Asset Sale.
Total assets were $6,074,484 at March 31, 2008, a decrease of $3,909,075 as compared to $9,983,559 for the 2007 fiscal year. The decrease in total assets resulted primarily from the sale of our New Mexico property.
Capital Resources
Our business plan for the next fiscal year entails redevelopment activities on the Wardlaw properties which may result in a capital expenditure greater than $1 million, in addition to the WHL venture discussed below. The Company will not be able to generate this necessary amount internally. The Company will rely on additional equity financing, bank debt financing, as well as off balance sheet joint ventures. For this reason we entered into a Letter of Intent with Wind Hydrogen Limited, a publicly-listed company on the Australian Stock Exchange to sell a 50% interest in 2,560 of the Company’s Wardlaw Field acreage for US $2,500,000 which may be spent on development activities in the Wardlaw Field. This transaction is subject to satisfactory due diligence, a definitive agreement, and approval by Wind Hydrogen Limited’s shareholders. Should this transaction be successfully concluded, the Company will have made significant progress in obtaining the capital resources necessary to implement the Company’s plan to redevelop the Wardlaw properties.
The Company will not be making any commitment of capital resources until it has secured the capital resources necessary to make such a commitment.
Cash Flow
Our operations used $2,172,016 of cash in the 2008 fiscal year as compared to $575,885 used in the 2007 fiscal year. The cash flow deficits are due to the operating losses incurred.

Table of Contents

Cash of $59,348 was used in investing activities during the 2008 fiscal year and cash of $642,211 was provided by investing activities for the 2007 fiscal year. Cash of $59,348 was used for capital expenditures for our oil and gas properties and for the purchase of equipment. During the 2007 fiscal year, cash flows used in investing activities related primarily to capital expenditures for our oil and gas properties.
In the 2008 fiscal year, cash of $625,461 was provided by financing activities.
At March 31, 2008 we had cash of $65,769.
Subsequent Events
Because of the delay in the approval of the items in the 14C, several corporate financings were not final as of March 31, 2008. To facilitate the understanding of the effect of these transactions, a pro forma balance sheet describes the results to the Company enhanced financial capabilities.

On June 30, 2008 the Board approved the WHL Participation agreement in which we have received $250K in May 2008 as the down payment for Phase 1. In addition, WHL purchased $100,000 of the previously mentioned $500,000 PIPE, and also purchased $150,000 PIPE, which, combined, resulted in the issuance of 300,000 shares of common stock.
On June 30, 2008 the Board approved a share repurchase by first having a 1 for 200 reverse split the stock, then an immediate purchase the fractional shares at the then market price, and then on the same day a 200 for 1 forward split. The result (based on shareholders of record as of April 28, 2008 would be the repurchase of approximately 18,000 shares, which would eliminate 1,385 shareholders, which hold an average of 13 shares. This would leave approximately 93 shareholders of record, plus shareholders who hold their shares in street name.
The sale of 666,667 shares of our common stock in January 2008 at a price of $0.75 per share for gross proceeds of $500,000 increased Cash and Shareholders’ Equity.
On May 23, 2008, the Company entered into an Agreement to Convert Debt with Richardson & Patel, LLP pursuant to which Richardson & Patel LLP agreed to accept 253,810 shares of our common stock in full payment of $215,738 for legal services previously rendered. The debt was converted at the rate of $0.85 per share. On May 23, 2008, the closing price of our common stock was $0.98. This reduced Accounts Payable and increased Shareholders’ Equity.
On June 12, 2008, WHL purchased $120,000 PIPE at $1.20 per share or 100,000 number of shares. This increases cash and Shareholders’ Equity.

Table of Contents

On July 3, 2008, approximately 54% of the holders of the Lothian Put Option of $2,147,770 as recorded in balance sheet elected to convert to common stock of the Company at a price of $0.75 per share. This reduced that current liability by $1,166,669. At the same time, approximately 41% of the Lothian Put Option holders elected to extend their options until December 31, 2009. The effect is to reduce the short term liability and create a long term liability for the same amount of $870,835. One unit holder did not make an election during the polling period. Therefore, approximately 5% of the Lothian Put Option liability will remain as a current liability for the amount of $110,268.
Non-Compliance with Nasdaq Rules
On July 19, 2007 we received a letter from the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) which indicated that we did not comply with Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(3) which requires us to have a minimum of $2,500,000 in shareholders’ equity or $35,000,000 market value of listed securities or $500,000 of net income from continuing operations for the most recently completed fiscal year or two of the three most recently completed fiscal years.
We submitted a plan on August 2, 2007 to achieve and sustain compliance with the NASDAQ Capital Market Listing Requirements and Nasdaq granted us an extension of time to regain compliance. We were required to evidence compliance on the filing of our next periodic report or be subject to delisting.
On November 14, 2007 we filed our quarterly report on Form 10-QSB for the quarter ended September 30, 2007, which showed that we were not in compliance with Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(3).
On November 30, 2007 we received a letter from Nasdaq noting our failure to regain compliance by September 30, 2007 and indicating that trading of our common stock was to be suspended at the opening of business on December 11, 2007 unless we appealed the determination. We appealed the determination and a hearing took place before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”) on January 17, 2008. As of December 31, 2007, as reported in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB for the quarter then ended, our shareholders’ equity amount complies with Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(3) and we believe that we now have the capacity to maintain compliance with this requirement. On March 17, 2008 we received a letter from the Panel indicating that the Panel has determined to continue the listing of our common stock, subject to the condition that our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008 demonstrates compliance with the $2.5 million minimum shareholders’ equity requirement. If we fail to demonstrate shareholders’ equity of $2.5 million or greater, the Panel will promptly conduct a hearing with respect to the failure and our securities may be immediately delisted from The Nasdaq Stock Market. However, our audited financial statements for the period ending March 31, 2008 state that the Company had shareholder equity of $3,116,495 which exceeds the threshold required in the Nasdaq notice. If we fail to comply with any requirement for continued listing other than shareholders’ equity, we will be provided with written notice of the deficiency and an opportunity to present a definitive plan to regain compliance. The Panel conditionally rendered a determination in our favor on March 17, 2008 with respect to our continued listing.
On January 31, 2008 we received a letter from Nasdaq indicating that, for a period of 30 consecutive business days, the bid price of our common stock closed below the minimum $1.00 per share requirement for continued inclusion under Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(4). According to the letter, we have until July 29, 2008 to regain compliance. In a letter dated June 13, 2008, Nasdaq informed us that we were compliant with Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(4) and that Nasdaq was closing the matter.
FACTORS AFFECTING OUR BUSINESS, OPERATING RESULTS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
Risks Related to Our Business
We do not earn enough money to support our operations. We may be unable to continue our business.
We do not earn enough money from our oil and gas sales to pay for our operating expenses. Due to our substantial losses and our working capital deficit, we may be unable to continue as a going concern. We currently do not know how long we can continue our operations. If we do not obtain financing, we will be required to severely curtail, or to completely cease, our operations. We do not currently have any commitments for financing. We are operating on a day-to-day basis and we will continue operating in this manner for as long as Lothian provides us with the funds to do so.

Table of Contents

Hein & Associates LLP, our independent auditor, has included in its report on our financial statements a paragraph stating that that we may be unable to continue as a going concern.
We have experienced net losses and negative cash flows from operations. We sustained a net loss of $3,251,650 and a working capital deficit of $2,714,405 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008. We have an accumulated deficit of $46,250,796. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, we sold all of our proved reserves in 2007 and we currently do not have significant revenue producing assets. In addition, we have limited capital resources. All of these factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements included in this report do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties. As noted in an explanatory paragraph in the report of Hein & Associates LLP, our independent certified public accountants, on our consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2008 these conditions have raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
We must estimate our proved oil and gas reserves and the estimated future net cash flows from the reserves. These estimates may prove to be inaccurate.
This Form 10-K contains estimates of our proved oil and gas reserves and the estimated future net cash flows from such reserves. These estimates are based upon various assumptions, including assumptions required by the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to oil and gas prices, drilling and operating expenses, capital expenditures, taxes and availability of funds. The process of estimating oil and natural gas reserves is complex. This process requires significant decisions and assumptions in the evaluation of available geological, geophysical, engineering and economic data for each reservoir and is therefore inherently imprecise. Additionally, our interpretations of the rules governing the estimation of proved reserves could differ from the interpretation of staff members of regulatory authorities resulting in estimates that could be challenged by these authorities.
Actual future production, oil and natural gas prices, revenues, taxes, development expenditures, operating expenses and quantities of recoverable oil and gas reserves will most likely vary from those estimated. Any significant variance could materially affect the estimated quantities and present value of reserves set forth in this Annual Report and the information incorporated by reference. Our properties may also be susceptible to hydrocarbon drainage from production by other operators on adjacent properties. In addition, we may adjust estimates of proved reserves to reflect production history, results of exploration and development, prevailing oil and natural gas prices and other factors, many of which are beyond our control.
Our business plan anticipates that we will be able to develop our oil and gas properties. The cost to develop our oil properties is significant, and, to date, we have been unable to do so due to our lack of funds. Unless we can develop our oil properties, our revenues and results of operations will be adversely affected.
We believe that our properties have significant reserves of oil; however, we have not had the funds to fully exploit these resources. The costs associated with the development of oil and gas properties, including engineering studies, equipment purchase or leasing and personnel costs, are significant. In order to become profitable we must enhance our oil production, which means that we must drill and/or recomplete more wells. In order to accomplish this, we must find additional sources of capital.
Even if we fully develop our oil properties, we may not be profitable. Our inability to operate profitably will adversely affect our business.
We have assumed that once we fully develop our oil properties we will be profitable. However, even if we were able to fully develop our properties, there is no guarantee that we would achieve profitability. Our reserves may prove to be lower than expected, production levels may be lower than expected, the costs to exploit the oil may be higher than expected, new regulations may adversely impact our ability to exploit these resources and the market price for crude oil may be lower than current prices.

Table of Contents

We also face competition from other oil companies in all aspects of our business, including obtaining oil leases, marketing oil, and obtaining goods, services and labor to exploit our resources. Many of our competitors have substantially larger financial and other resources than we have, and we may not be able to successfully compete against them. Competition is also presented by alternative fuel sources, which may be more efficient and less costly and may result in our products becoming less desirable.
Any of these factors could prevent us from attaining profitability.
The development and exploitation of oil properties is subject to many risks that are beyond our control. The occurrence of any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
Our crude oil drilling and production activities are subject to numerous risks, many of which are beyond our control. These risks include the following:
 
that no commercially productive crude oil reservoirs will be found;
 
 
that crude oil drilling and production activities may be shortened, delayed or canceled; and
 
 
that our ability to develop, produce and market our reserves may be limited by title problems, weather conditions, compliance with governmental requirements, and mechanical difficulties or shortages or delays in the delivery of drilling rigs and other equipment.
We cannot assure you that the new wells we drill, or the wells that are currently in existence, will be productive or that we will recover all or any portion of our investment in them. Drilling for crude oil and natural gas may be unprofitable. Dry holes and wells that are productive but do not produce sufficient net revenues after drilling, operating and other costs are unprofitable.
Our industry also experiences numerous operating risks. These operating risks include the risk of fire, explosions, blow-outs, pipe failure, abnormally pressured formations and environmental hazards. Environmental hazards include oil spills, natural gas leaks, ruptures or discharges of toxic gases. If any of these industry operating risks occur, we could sustain substantial losses. Substantial losses also may result from injury or loss of life, severe damage to or destruction of property, clean-up responsibilities, regulatory investigation and penalties and suspension of operations.
Any of these events could adversely affect our business.
We may not have enough insurance to cover all of the risks we face. If our insurance coverage is inadequate to pay a claim, we would be responsible for payment. The requirement that we pay a significant claim would materially, adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations.
In accordance with customary industry practices, we maintain insurance coverage against some, but not all, potential losses in order to protect against the risks we face. We may elect not to carry insurance if our management believes that the cost of available insurance is excessive relative to the risks presented. In addition, we cannot insure fully against pollution and environmental risks. The occurrence of an event not fully covered by insurance which we may be required to pay could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
Oil and natural gas prices are highly volatile in general and low prices negatively affect our financial results.
Our revenue, profitability, cash flow, future growth and ability to borrow funds or obtain additional capital, as well as the carrying value of our properties, are substantially dependent upon prevailing prices of oil and natural gas. Historically, the markets for oil and natural gas have been volatile, and such markets are likely to continue to be volatile in the future. Prices are subject to wide fluctuation in response to relatively minor changes in the supply of and demand for oil and natural gas, market uncertainty and a variety of additional factors that are beyond our control. These factors include the level of consumer product demand, weather conditions, domestic and foreign governmental regulations, the price and availability of alternative fuels, political conditions, the foreign supply of oil and natural gas, the price of foreign imports and overall economic conditions. While we attempt to mitigate price volatility when we can by acquiring “puts” to protect our prices, we cannot assure you that such transactions will reduce the risk or minimize the effect of any decline in oil or natural gas prices. Any substantial or extended decline in the prices of or demand for oil or natural gas would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Table of Contents

Government regulation and liability for environmental matters may adversely affect our business and results of operations.
Oil and natural gas operations are subject to various federal, state and local government regulations, which may be changed from time to time. Matters subject to regulation include discharge permits for drilling operations, drilling bonds, reports concerning operations, the spacing of wells, unitization and pooling of properties and taxation. From time to time, regulatory agencies have imposed price controls and limitations on production by restricting the rate of flow of oil and natural gas wells below actual production capacity in order to conserve supplies of oil and natural gas. There are federal, state and local laws and regulations primarily relating to protection of human health and the environment applicable to the development, production, handling, storage, transportation and disposal of oil and natural gas, by-products thereof and other substances and materials produced or used in connection with oil and natural gas operations. Furthermore, we may be liable for environmental damages caused by previous owners of property we purchase or lease. As a result, we may incur substantial liabilities to third parties or governmental entities. We are also subject to changing and extensive tax laws, the effects of which cannot be predicted. While the regulations governing our industry have not had a material adverse effect on our operations to date, the implementation of new laws or regulations, or the modification of existing laws or regulations, could have a material adverse effect on us.
We face strong competition from larger oil and natural gas companies.
Our competitors include major oil and natural gas companies and numerous independent oil and natural gas companies, individuals and drilling and income programs. Many of our competitors are large, well-established companies with substantially larger operating staff and greater capital resources than we have. These larger competitors may be able to pay more for exploratory prospects and productive oil and natural gas properties and may be able to define, evaluate, bid for and purchase a greater number of properties and prospects than our financial or human resources permit. In addition, such companies may be able to expend greater resources on the existing and changing technologies that we believe are and will be increasingly important to attaining success in the industry. We do not represent a significant presence in the oil and gas industry.
We may not be able to replace production with new reserves.
In general, the volume of production from oil and gas properties declines as reserves are depleted. The decline rates depend on reservoir characteristics. Our aggregate reserves will decline as they are produced unless we acquire properties with proved reserves or conduct successful development and exploration drilling activities. Our future natural gas and oil production is highly dependent upon our level of success in finding or acquiring additional reserves.

Table of Contents

On March 28, 2008, the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors approved the engagement of Hein & Associates LLP as our new principal independent accountant to audit our consolidated financial statements for the year ending March 31, 2008.
During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007, Weaver and Tidwell LLP advised us that significant deficiencies in our internal control had come to its attention which represented a material weakness. Weaver and Tidwell LLP concluded that certain of the significant deficiencies resulted in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of our financial statements to be issued covering the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007 would not be prevented or detected. We disclosed the material weakness in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007.
The report of Weaver and Tidwell LLP on our financial statements as of and for the years ended March 31, 2007 and March 31, 2006 did not contain an adverse opinion, or a disclaimer of opinion, however the report issued on the financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2007 was modified as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. During the periods ended March 31, 2007 and March 31, 2006 and the interim period from April 1, 2007 through the date of resignation, we did not have any disagreements with Weaver and Tidwell LLP on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Weaver and Tidwell LLP, would have caused it to make a reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its reports. Weaver and Tidwell, LLP’s statement about its resignation is attached as Exhibit 16 to the Company’s Form 8-K filed April 3, 2008.
Prior to engaging Hein & Associates LLP, the Company had not consulted Hein & Associates LLP, regarding the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements.
ITEM 8A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. The evaluation was undertaken in consultation with our accounting personnel. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that, due to the loss of a number of employees, we no longer have the capacity to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.
There have been no material changes in internal control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter that could materially affect or is reasonably likely to affect our internal control over financial reporting.
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Glen Rose Petroleum Corporation’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining systems of adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f). Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.
In the year ending March 31, 2008 Glen Rose Petroleum Corporation’s management team conducted tests of its internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the standards set forth by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) in the United States. In accordance with these standards, management assessed and tested, on a sample basis, Glen Rose Petroleum Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting according to a comprehensive risk analysis using the Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). It is management’s opinion that the testing methodology of the internal control framework is appropriate and provides reasonable assurance as to the integrity and reliability of the internal control over financial reporting.

Table of Contents

In management’s opinion, based on the assessment completed for the year ended March 31, 2008, the internal controls over financial reporting are not operating effectively.
Furthermore, management determined that a material weakness existed in the processes, procedures and controls related to the preparation of our quarterly and annual financial statements due to limited personnel and a lack of segregation of duties. In connection with the preparation of this report, we discovered that, due to the difficulty experienced by management in applying complex accounting standards, our control environment is dependent upon a review function and the ability to recognize and obtain assistance for complex transactions, which does not exist. The ineffectiveness of these controls resulted in adjustments related to the recording of stock options, warrants, and conversion of debt. This material weakness could result in the reporting of financial information and disclosures in future consolidated annual and interim financial statements that are not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Other than as described above, there were no changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date of management’s evaluation.
The annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Consulting Agreements:
On November 27, 2007 our board of directors approved, and on November 28, 2007 we entered into, a 12 month Consulting Agreement (the “DK/RTP Consulting Agreement”) with DK True Energy Development Ltd. and RTP Secure Energy Corp. (the “Consultants”). The Consultants are to provide services to us including, but not limited to, reservoir analysis and geological and engineering expertise.
DK True Energy Development Ltd. is a company controlled by Dr. David Kahn. Dr. Kahn is a reservoir engineer with 20 years experience in heavy oil projects with Texaco and Baker Hughes and, more recently, was a principal in development stage heavy oil companies that engaged in merger and acquisition transactions with Megawest Energy Inc. and Pearl Exploration and Production Ltd., a Canadian-based oil and gas company.
In lieu of cash compensation, the Consultants have agreed to accept warrants to purchase up to a total of 9,000,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.05 per share, exercisable after December 31, 2007 and only on a cashless basis. In order to determine the number of shares that would be issued, the warrant holder must multiply the difference between the fair market value of the common stock and the warrant exercise price times the number of shares to be purchased and divide the product by the fair market value of the common stock. The fair market value of the common stock is computed by taking the average of the closing bid and asked prices of the common stock quoted in the Over-The-Counter Market or the last reported sale price of the common stock or the closing price quoted on the Nasdaq Capital Market or on any exchange on which the common stock is listed for the 30 trading days prior to the date of the company’s receipt of the warrant. The warrants will have a term of 5 years. The parties have allocated the warrants so that DK True Energy Development Ltd. will have the right to purchase 5,250,000 shares of our common stock and RTP Secure Energy will have the right to purchase 3,750,000 shares of our common stock. Blackwood Ventures LLC, has executed a voting agreement to approve the Consultants’ warrants. The right to purchase 1,147,500 shares of our common stock will vest 20 days following the date that this information statement is sent to our shareholders; the right to purchase 2,452,500 shares of common stock will vest when we announce that we are implementing a development program based on the results of a pilot program completed for the Wardlaw field; and the right to purchase 5,400,000 shares of our common stock will vest at the rate of 675,000 shares when we produce an average of 250 barrels of oil per day over 30 days (“bopd30av”), 500 bopd30av, 750 bopd30av, 1,000 bopd30av, 1,250 bopd30av, 1,500 bopd30av, 1750 bopd30av and 2,000 bopd30av. The warrant will be fully vested when production reaches 2,000 bopd30av.
On January 15, 2008 the Company entered into a Consulting Agreement with Blackwood Capital Limited (“BCL”), which is a managing member of our controlling shareholder. BCL began providing services to us beginning on September 1, 2007. The services provided to us by BCL include assisting us with preparing business plans and projections, analyzing our financial data, advising us on our capital structure and on alternative structures for raising capital, reviewing our managerial needs and advising us with respect to retaining the services of managerial candidates, advising us on public relations. We may, in the future, also receive services from BCL relating to acquisitions or mergers or undertaking a public offering. BCL introduced us to Paul Watson, our chief executive officer, Joseph F. Langston Jr., our chief financial officer, Dr. David Kahn, who provides consulting services to us through DK True Energy Development Ltd., and Raymond T. Pirraglia, who provides consulting services to us through RTP Secure Energy Corp. Our consulting agreement with BCL has a term of one year, but may be terminated by either party on 45 days notice. A termination will not release us from the payment of the compensation called for by the agreement. In payment for the services rendered to us, and as an inducement to render further services to us, we agreed to issue to BCL a warrant for the purchase of 1,500,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.05 per share. The term of the warrant is four years and the warrant has a cashless exercise provision, at the holder’s election, such that fewer than 1,500,000 shares may be issued upon full exercise. On January 15, 2008, the closing price of our common stock was $0.82. The Consulting Agreement also requires us to pay to BCL, from September 1, 2007 through the term of the agreement, cash compensation of $15,000 per month.

Recommendations by Security Holders of Nominees to the Board of Directors
There has been no material change in the procedures by which security holders may recommend nominees to our Board of Directors, as described in the Proxy Statement we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 27, 2008.
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our executive officers, directors, and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities to file reports of ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Based upon a review of Forms 3 and 4 and any amendments thereto furnished to us during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008, and Forms 5 and amendments thereto furnished to us with respect to the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008, management has determined that, during such fiscal year, no directors, officers or ten percent beneficial owners of our common stock failed to file on a timely basis with the Securities and Exchange Commission a required report on Form 3, 4 or 5, except for a Form 3 filed by Blackwood Ventures Limited on October 29, 2007 that was filed 33 days after the stated event and a Form 4 filed by Blackwood Ventures Limited on November 2, 2007 that was filed 37 days after the stated event.
Code of Ethics
We have adopted a code of ethics that applies to all of our employees, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer. We will provide to any person, upon request and without charge, a copy of our Code of Ethics. Requests should be in writing and addressed to Mr. Joseph F. (“Chip”) Langston, President, Glen Rose Petroleum Corporation, Suite 200, 4925 Greenville Avenue, Dallas, Texas, 75206.
ITEM 10. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Officer and Director Compensation
The Company determined to award its officers and directors through a mixture of salary and performance-related compensation. The performance-related compensation entails two performance metrics. First, the value of our officers’ and directors options and warrants will fluctuate in tandem with our stock price. If our stock price increases, the options and warrants possessed by and awarded to our officers and directors will grow more valuable. Conversely, these options and warrants will become less valuable should the stock price decrease. Second, Paul D. Watson’s and Joseph F. Langston’s warrant compensation will be based on the Company’s oil and gas production amounts. The oil and gas production metrics that the Company must meet to earn this compensation are several multiples of our current production. The company anticipates that if it meets the oil and gas production metrics designated in Mr. Watson’s compensation, then the Company’s value to shareholders will rise correspondingly. These two compensation metrics, share price and oil and gas production, may highly correlate. Finally, Joseph F. Langston, our chief financial officer, will also receive warrants from the Company upon the close of a Company financing in the amount of $1,000,000 or more.
Paul D. Watson and Joseph F. Langston were both new hires during the year ending March 31, 2008. Consequently, they have new compensation schedules which have not been materially modified since their hire. Also, the Company has not waived or modified Mr. Watson’s or Mr. Langston’s performance targets.

Mr. Paul D. Watson, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer —
For Mr. Watson’s services, we agreed to issue to Applewood shares of our common stock having a value of $60,000 and to pay cash compensation of $5,000 per month. We began paying the monthly cash compensation in December 2007. We have not yet issued the shares of common stock. The Applewood Consulting Agreement requires us to use the closing price of our common stock on the date the agreement was executed to compute the number of shares to be issued. On November 28, 2007 the closing price of our common stock was $1.84, therefore we are required to issue to Applewood 32,609 shares of our common stock. Upon completion of the first and second years of the Applewood Consulting Agreement and provided it is not terminated in accordance with its terms, we have agreed to pay Applewood a bonus equal to the amount of the annual compensation. The bonus will be paid with our common stock. Furthermore, upon the achievement of certain milestones related to the development of oil production on the Wardlaw field, Applewood will also receive a warrant to purchase a total of 1,600,000 shares of our common stock. The warrant will have a term of five years and will vest as follows: (i) the right to purchase 400,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.00 per share will vest upon completion of a successful pilot; (ii) the right to purchase 400,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.00 per share will vest when the 30 day average for production reaches 1,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day (“boe/d”); (iii) the right to purchase 400,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.50 per share will vest when the 30 day average for production reaches 2,000 boe/d; and (iv) the right to purchase 400,000 shares of common stock having an exercise price of $3.00 per share will vest when the 30 day average for production reaches 3,000 boe/d.

Mr. Joseph F. (“Chip”) Langston, Secretary, President and Chief Financial Officer —

We are required to issue 20,000 shares of our common stock to Mr. Langston in exchange for the services he rendered pursuant to this agreement, although the shares have not yet been issued.
As of January 1, 2008, Mr. Langston agreed to be president, chief financial officer and a director in exchange for compensation consisting of cash common stock having a value of $60,000 (80,000 shares, the stock price was $0.75 per share at the time) and to pay cash compensation of $5,000 per month. None of the compensation to be paid with common stock or options has yet been issued by the transfer agent, but the Company recognizes the obligation. Mr. Langston is also to receive warrants on the following schedule: (i) the right to purchase 300,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.00 per share will vest upon completion of a successful pilot; (ii) the right to purchase 300,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.00 per share will vest when the 30 day average for production reaches 1,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day (“boe/d”); (iii) the right to purchase 300,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.50 per share will vest when the 30 day average for production reaches 2,000 boe/d; and (iv) the right to purchase 300,000 shares of common stock having an exercise price of $3.00 per share will vest when the 30 day average for production reaches 3,000 boe/d; and the right to purchase 300,000 shares at $1.50 when the Company closes on a financing in which it receives $1,000,000 or more. The warrants have not been earned and no expense has been recognized as of March 31, 2008.

Blackwood Ventures LLC owns 7,965,453 shares of our common stock and warrants that allow it to purchase a total of 2,906,666 shares of common stock. The warrants were acquired from Mr. Walter Mize, who acquired them from Lothian Oil Inc. The warrants were issued on October 7, 2005, are immediately exercisable and have five year terms. This number also includes 128,000 shares of common stock issued to Blackwood Ventures LLC as a result of its agreement to accept units comprised of 128,000 shares of common stock and a warrant to purchase 209,012 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.40 per share in exchange for debt totaling $96,000. This number does includes the warrant included in the units or an additional 48,750 shares of common stock and a warrant to purchase 36,563 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.40 per share in exchange for debt totaling $39,000. These securities will not be issued until 20 days following the date we mail this information statement to our shareholders, but are included in our calculations because Regulation S-K incorporates SEC Rule 13d-3(d)(1) by reference and that rule requires us to include rights to acquire beneficial ownership of securities within 60 days. This total also includes 1,500,000 warrants issued with a purchase price $1.05 to Blackwood Capital, Ltd., an affiliate of Blackwood Ventures, Ltd., as previously disclosed in our Form 8-K filed January 22, 2008. These and other warrants have a cashless settlement provision in which the number of shares issued may vary from the face amount of the warrants based on a formula based on trading stock price. Thus, it is possible that the actual number of shares issued pursuant to the formula may be greater or less than the amount of shares designated on the warrants. The percentage calculation presented includes the warrants and is based on the fully-diluted number of shares. This percentage is also based on a fully-diluted calculation of 16,743,035 shares outstanding. Without reference to options and warrants or fully-diluted shares outstanding, Blackwood Ventures, Ltd. owns 7,965,453 of the 12,299,806 shares outstanding as of July 11, 2008, which is a 68.2813% ownership percentage. Voting and investment control over the shares held by Blackwood Ventures LLC is exercised by Mr. Andrew Taylor-Kimmins, Dr. David Kahn and Mr. Walter Reissman, collectively.

In November 2007 we entered into a Consulting Agreement with Applewood Energy, Inc., an entity controlled by Mr. Watson. Pursuant to that agreement, we agreed to issue to Applewood Energy, Inc. shares of our common stock having a value of $60,000. We have not yet issued these shares. As of July 11, 2008, Mr. Watson had 37,500 shares that he had purchased in a private offering and options for 25,000 shares. The percentage presented is on a fully- diluted basis and includes Mr. Watson’s options. Without reference to options or fully-diluted shares outstanding, Mr. Watson’s ownership percentage is .5081% as of July 11, 2008.

In October 2007 Mr. Langston agreed to be interim president and director for $7,500 per month, payable $2,500 in cash and the balance in common stock at an agreed-upon value of $0.75 per share. We are required to issue 20,000 shares of our common stock to Mr. Langston in exchange for the services he rendered pursuant to this agreement, although the shares have not yet been issued. As of January 1, 2008, Mr. Langston agreed to be president, chief financial officer and a director in exchange for compensation consisting of cash, common stock and options to purchase common stock. None of the compensation to be paid with common stock or options has yet been paid. The 45,000 shares included in the table above were purchased in the market by Mr. Langston. 17,000 shares were purchased for his adult child and 28,000 shares were purchased for a retirement account. Mr. Langston disclaims ownership in the securities purchased for his child. As of July 11, 2008, Mr. Langston owned 30,000 stock options which are included in these calculations and the percentage calculation is on a fully-diluted basis. Mr. Langston’s ownership percentage without options and share dilutions is .6719%.

A copy of this consulting agreement and warrant are included as Exhibit 10-2 to the Company’s Form 8-K filed January 22, 2008.
On or about January 17, 2008, the Company accepted binding subscriptions for the purchase and sale to accredited investors of $500,000 of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.75 per share (the “$500K Private Placement”), including subscriptions for $50,000 each from the Langston Family Limited Partnership and Applewood Energy, Inc., entities controlled by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of its board of directors, Paul D. Watson, and the Company’s President, Chief Financial Officer and Secretary, Joseph F. Langston, Jr., respectively.
Termination of Obligations
Chadbourn Securities Corporation
On January 16, 2008, the Company entered into a six-month exclusive agreement with Chadbourn Securities (“Chadbourn”), pursuant to which Chadbourn agreed to act as the Company’s placement agent in connection with a private placement of the Company’s securities (the “Chadbourn Agreement”). According to the Chadbourn Agreement, the Company was obligated pay Chadbourn a monthly fee of $15,000, in cash or stock at Chadbourn’s option and commissions on equity securities and debt sold by the Company during the term of the Agreement. However, on July 10, 2008, the parties agreed to terminate the agreement in exchange for the Company paying Chadbourn 25,000 shares of restricted common stock as full and complete consideration for services rendered.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
Glen Rose Petroleum Corporation
Dallas, Texas
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Glen Rose Petroleum Corporation and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2008, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the year then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2008, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We were not engaged to examine management’s assertion about the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2008 included in the accompanying Form 10-K and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion thereon.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has limited capital resources and no significant revenue producing assets which combine to raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also discussed in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
Glen Rose Petroleum Corporation
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Glen Rose Petroleum Corporation (formerly United Heritage Corporation) and subsidiaries as of March 31, 2007, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the year then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Glen Rose Petroleum Corporation (formerly United Heritage Corporation) and subsidiaries as of March 31, 2007, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company sold all of its proved reserves in 2006 and currently does not have significant revenue producing assets. In addition, the Company has limited capital resources and it’s majority shareholder, who was financing the Company’s development, filed for bankruptcy subsequent to March 31, 2007, all of which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also discussed in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, in 2007 the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R), “Share Based Payment.”

GLEN ROSE PETROLEUM CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation and Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Glen Rose Petroleum Corporation (the “Company”, “we” or “our”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Glen Rose Petroleum Services, UHC Petroleum Corporation, UHC Petroleum Services Corporation, UHC New Mexico Corporation and National Heritage Sales Corporation.
The name of the Company was changed from United Heritage Corporation to Glen Rose Petroleum Corporation in May, 2008. The Board of the Directors of the Company felt a corporate name change was consistent with the Company change of majority ownership, and the change of its entire Board and management team. Glen Rose is the producing formation in the Wardlaw lease in Edwards County, Texas.
Concurrent with the name change, the Board of Directors felt it was appropriate to change the Company’s state of incorporation, from Utah to Delaware. To effect the change in the state of incorporation, the Company merged United Heritage Corporation, a Utah corporation, into the newly formed Delaware corporation, Glen Rose Petroleum Corporation.
All significant intercompany transactions and balances were eliminated in consolidation.
Nature of Operations
Glen Rose Petroleum Corporation owns various oil and gas properties located in south Texas. The Company began production of the Texas properties during the year ended March 31, 2000. The Company sold a significant portion of its oil and gas properties in 2007. The Company continues to operate its remaining oil and gas properties.
Revenue Recognition
Oil and gas production revenues are recognized at the point of sale. Production not sold at the end of the fiscal year is included as inventory in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Inventory
Inventory consists of oil in tanks, which is valued at the lower of the cost to produce the oil or the current available sales price.
Oil and Gas Properties
The Company follows the full cost method of accounting for oil and gas properties, which are located in the southwestern United States. Accordingly, all costs associated with acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas reserves are capitalized.
All capitalized costs, including the estimated future costs to develop proved reserves are amortized on the unit-of-production method using estimates of proved reserves. Investments in unproved properties and major development projects will not be amortized until proved reserves associated with the projects can be determined or until impairment occurs.

GLEN ROSE PETROLEUM CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Company is currently participating in oil and gas exploitation and development activities. As of March 31, 2008 the following associated property costs have been excluded in computing amortization of the full cost pool, by the year in which such costs were incurred:
                                 
    Total     2008     2007     Prior  
Acquisition costs
  $ 31,803,338     $ 50,597     $     $ 31,752,741  
Exploration costs
                       
Development costs
    3,918,199                   3,918,199  
Sale of deep rights
    (625,000 )                 (625,000 )
Unproved impairment
    (29,181,353 )                 (29,181,353 )
 
                       
 
  $ 5,915,184     $ 50,597     $     $ 5,864,587  
 
                       
The Company will begin to amortize the remaining acquisition and development costs when the project evaluation is complete. This will be dependent upon the Company obtaining the necessary financing.
Potential impairment of producing properties and significant unproved properties and other plant and equipment are assessed periodically. If the assessment indicates that the properties are impaired, the amount of the impairment will be added to the capitalized costs to be amortized.
In addition, the capitalized costs are subject to a “ceiling test”, which limits such costs to the aggregate of the estimated present value using a 10% discount rate (based on prices and costs at the balance sheet date) of future net revenues from proved reserves based on current economic and operating conditions, plus the lower of cost (net of impairments) or fair market value of unproved properties.
The Company retained outside independent petroleum engineers to evaluate the properties of the Company as of March 31, 2008. Based on this review and internal assessments as of March 31, 2008 and March 31, 2007 the Company determined that no impairment of its unproved properties was required.
Sales of proved and unproved properties are accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs with no gain or loss recognized, unless such adjustments would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves of oil and gas, in which case the gain or loss is recognized in income. Abandonments of properties are accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs with no loss recognized. During the year ended March 31, 2007 the Company sold 100% of its New Mexico proved reserves for net proceeds of cash and stock of $8,440,947. The sale resulted in a loss of $6,125,233 which is reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the assets primarily by the straight-line method as follows:
         
Equipment, furniture and fixtures
  3-7 years
Vehicles
  3-5 years
Gains and losses resulting from sales and dispositions of property and equipment are included in current operations. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred.
Earnings (Loss) per Common Share
Basic earnings (loss) per common share are computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share are computed assuming all dilutive potential common shares were issued. Dilutive potential common shares consist of stock options and warrants. At March 31, 2008 the Company had potentially dilutive options and warrants totaling 23,701,420 shares. Diluted earnings per share have not been presented since the inclusion of potential common shares would be antidilutive.

Cash Flows Presentation
For purposes of the consolidated statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates of oil and gas reserves, the asset retirement obligation and impairment on unproved properties are inherently imprecise and may change materially in the near term.
Financial Instruments
Financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and notes payable. Recorded values of cash, receivables and payables approximate fair values due to short maturities of the instruments or the use of prevailing market interest rates.
Investment Securities
Securities to be held for indefinite periods of time are classified as available for sale and carried at fair value, with the unrealized holding gains and losses reported as a component of other comprehensive income, net of tax. Securities held for resale in anticipation of short-term market movements are classified as trading and are carried at fair value, with changes in unrealized holding gains and losses included in income. Management determines the appropriate classification of securities at the time of purchase.
Declines in the fair value of held-to-maturity and available-for-sale securities below their cost that are deemed to be other than temporary are reflected in earnings as realized losses. In estimating other-than-temporary impairment losses, management considers, among other things, (i) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (ii) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (iii) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.
At March 31, 2007, the Company owned 404,204 shares of restricted common stock in Cano Petroleum, Inc. which was classified as available for sale. Those shares secured a loan from Lothian Oil, Inc. and were delivered to Lothian Oil, Inc. effective June 30, 2007 in satisfaction of the loan. See Note 3.
Share-Based Compensation
We measure and record compensation expense for all share-based payment awards to consultants, employees and directors based on estimated fair values. Additionally, compensation costs for share-based awards are recognized over the requisite service period based on the grant-date fair value.

Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets to be held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company periodically evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets based on estimated future cash flows and the estimated liquidation value of such long-lived assets, and provides for impairment if such undiscounted cash flows are insufficient to recover the carrying amount of the long-lived assets.
Income Taxes
Provisions for income taxes are based on taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred taxes on temporary differences between the amount of taxable income and pretax financial income and between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are included in the financial statements at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets and liabilities are expected to be realized or settled as prescribed in FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. As changes in tax laws or rate are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (“FIN 48”). This interpretation provides guidance for recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions, as defined in SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN 48 prescribes a threshold condition that a tax position must meet for any of the benefit of the uncertain tax position to be recognized in the financial statements. Guidance is also provided regarding derecognition, classification and disclosure of these uncertain tax positions. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company adopted FIN 48 on April 1, 2007 and its adoption did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which addresses how companies should measure fair value when companies are required to use a fair value measure for recognition or disclosure purposes under generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). As a result of SFAS 157, there is now a common definition of fair value to be used throughout GAAP. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those years. Although the disclosure requirements may be expanded where certain assets or liabilities are fair valued such as those related to stock compensation expense and hedging activities, the Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 157 to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
In December 2007, SFAS No. 141R, Business Combinations, was issued. Under SFAS No. 141R, a company is required to recognize the assets acquired, liabilities assumed, contractual contingencies, and any contingent consideration measured at their fair value at the acquisition date. It further requires that research and development assets acquired in a business combination that have no alternative future use be measured at their acquisition-date fair value and then immediately charged to expense, and that acquisition-related costs are to be recognized separately from the acquisition and expensed as incurred. Among other changes, this statement also requires that “negative goodwill” be recognized in earnings as a gain attributable to the acquisition, and any deferred tax benefits resultant in a business combination are recognized in income from continuing operations in the period of the combination. SFAS No. 141R is effective for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2008. The effect of adopting SFAS No. 141R has not been determined, but it is not currently expected to have a significant effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In December 2007, SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — an Amendment of ARB No. 51, was issued. SFAS No. 160 amends ARB 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It clarifies that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary, which is sometimes referred to as minority interest, is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements. Among other requirements, this statement requires consolidated net income to be reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to both the parent and the noncontrolling interest. It also requires disclosure, on the face of the consolidated income statement, of the amounts of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest. SFAS No. 160 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2008. The effect of adopting SFAS No. 160 is not currently expected to have an effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, which provides entities with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. SFAS No. 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. This Statement is effective as of the beginning of the first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that SFAS No. 159 will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivatives Instruments and Hedging Activities, an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“FAS 161”). FAS 161 changes the disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and hedging activities. Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures stating how and why an entity uses derivative instruments; how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS No. 133 and its related interpretations; and how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows. FAS 161 requires that objectives for using derivative instruments be disclosed in terms of underlying risk and accounting designation. FAS 161 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. FAS 161 also encourages, but does not require, comparative disclosures for earlier periods at initial adoption. The Company is currently evaluating whether the adoption of FAS 161 will have an impact on our financial statements.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Such reclassifications had no impact on the reported prior year net loss.

2. Going Concern
The Company’s financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Company has incurred substantial losses from operations and it has a working capital deficit which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The Company sustained a net loss of $3,251,650 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008 and it had a working capital deficit of $2,714,405 at March 31, 2008. The Company is currently looking for financing to provide the needed funds for operations. However, the Company can provide no assurance that it will be able to obtain the financing it needs to develop its properties and alleviate doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
3. Securities
At March 31, 2007, the Company owned 404,204 shares of restricted common stock in Cano Petroleum, Inc. valued at $1,827,000. Those shares secured a loan from Lothian Oil, Inc. and were delivered to Lothian Oil, Inc. effective June 30, 2007 in satisfaction of the loan. The Company currently does not hold equity or debt securities issued by other companies.
4. Asset Retirement Obligations
The FASB issued SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. This statement, adopted by the Company as of April 1, 2003, establishes accounting and reporting standards for the legal obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction or development and the normal operation of long-lived assets. It requires that the fair value of the liability for asset retirement obligations be recognized in the period in which it is incurred. Upon initial recognition of the asset retirement liability, an asset retirement cost is capitalized by increasing the carrying amount of the long-lived asset by the same amount as the liability. In periods subsequent to initial measurement, the asset retirement cost is allocated to expense using a systematic method over the asset’s useful life. Changes in the liability for the asset retirement obligation are recognized for (a) the passage of time and (b) revisions to either the timing or the amount of the original estimate of undiscounted cash flows.
A reconciliation of the changes in the estimated asset retirement obligation follows:
                 
    2008     2007  
Beginning asset retirement obligations
  $ 82,942     $ 266,512  
Additional liability incurred
           
Liabilities assumed by others
          (125,455 )
Accretion expense
    4,976       12,402

          (70,517 )
 
           
Ending asset retirement obligation
  $ 87,918       82,942  
 
           
During the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, accretion expense of $4,976 and $12,402, respectively, was recognized and is reported in the consolidated statements of operations.
5. Inventory
Inventory consists of the following:

On July 30, 2007, the Lothian Bankruptcy Court entered its Order Granting Motion of Lothian Oil Inc. to Approve Compromise and Settlement of Claims By and Between Lothian Oil Inc. and Walter G. Mize (Docket No. 217), approving the Mize Settlement, and its Amended Order Granting Motion of Lothian Oil Inc. to Approve Compromise and Settlement Claims By and Between Lothian Oil Inc. and United Heritage Corporation (Docket No. 216), approving the Final UHC Settlement.
The Mize Settlement settled a dispute between Mize and the Lothian Oil Inc., regarding ownership of United Heritage Corporation (UHC) stock and the enforcement of a promissory note in the amount of in excess of $5,300,000, allegedly due from Lothian Oil. The UHC Settlement occurred on July 31, 2007, (“the Mize/UHC closing”). At the Mize/UHC Closing: (i) Lothian Oil assigned shares and warrants in UHC valued at approximately $2,600,000 to Mize, (ii) Mize executed a complete release of any and all secured and unsecured claims against Lothian Oil and made a payment to Lothian Oil in the amount of $250,000, (iii) Lothian Oil released UHC from its obligations for intercompany debts totaling approximately $1,800,000, and (iv) UHC and Lothian Oil executed mutual releases of all claims against the other.
As of March 31, 2007, the Company had a $4,000,000 loan agreement with Lothian, which was then its majority shareholder. The agreement, dated October 7, 2005, provided for draws as needed for the development of the Cato San Andres Unit in New Mexico. The note bore interest at 1% over the Citibank prime rate (8.75% at March 31, 2007) and was secured by a deed of trust and assignment of production, among other provisions. Loan advances were repayable monthly from 70% of the oil and gas proceeds produced by the Cato San Andres Unit. The loan and interest was reduced by $4,397,760 from the proceeds of the sale of the Cato San Andres Unit and the Tom Tom and Tomahawk Field on March 30, 2007. After the sale of these properties, the loan was then secured by 404,204 shares of restricted Cano Petroleum common stock. Effective June 2007, Lothian accepted the Cano Petroleum common stock as full payment of the loan and accrued interest. No debt balance was outstanding at March 31, 2008.
As of March 31, 2007 the Company had an additional $2,500,000 loan agreement with Lothian Oil, Inc. Advances to the Company under this agreement were $759,140. The loan agreement and the advance were satisfied and cancelled in the Company’s July 30, 2007 settlement with the Lothian Oil, Inc. bankruptcy estate.
Lothian Oil Company originally intended to merge into United Heritage Corporation. However, after Lothian acquired the controlling interest in the Company, Lothian never completed the merger, but operated the companies jointly. There was joint office space, management, and Lothian provided debt financing to the Company for the purpose of working capital, acquisitions and development.
In late 2006, when Lothian abandoned the idea of merging into the Company, Lothian sought purchasers of the Company’s New Mexico property, its only property providing net cash flow from operations. Once the sale was completed to Cano Petroleum, the net proceeds were not adequate to retire the payable due Lothian. Therefore, in order to promote the sale of their majority interest in the Company, Lothian forgave the remainder of the debt, which resulted in the Company recognizing $1,780,709 as an increase in paid in capital as a result of debt forgiveness by Lothian in the year ended March 31, 2008.

Revolving Line of Credit Agreement
The Company has no revolving line of credit as of March 31, 2008 or 2007.
7. Accrued put option Liability
The holders of our Put Option liability are prior employees, officers and directors of United Heritage Corporation. These individuals had accrued this compensation in prior years. To record this obligation, we entered into option agreements dated May 30, 2003 and May 24, 2004 under our 2000 Stock Option Plan to purchase shares of $.001 par value stock of United Heritage Corporation at a price of $1.50 per share as adjusted for reverse stock splits. As a result of the proposed merger with Lothian Oil, Inc., these option agreements were modified via amendment on or about February 16, 2006, to grant the Purchaser a put option to require United Heritage Corporation to purchase said options for a price of $4.00 per share less the purchase price, as adjusted by reverse stock splits, of $1.50 per share by making demand between April 1, 2008 and April 10, 2008 (“Put Option”).
This obligation of the Company was recognized as a liability. The Put Holders demanded their rights in the required period. The Company did not have the cash to meet this obligation, and sought a mutually acceptable agreement. The agreement contained two alternatives. The first was to extend the Put Option until December 31, 2009, with the obligation of the Company to begin paying interest on that debt at 10% per annum. The second alternative was to convert the Put Option into common stock of the Company at $0.75 per share, the prevailing stock price in early April 2008. This second alternative however, required by the major shareholder, Blackwood Ventures, Ltd. (“BVL”), a lock up and voting trust until December 31, 2009, and an option by BVL to purchase those shares for $1.25 per share.
Subsequent to March 31, 2008, six Put option holders holding 88 percent of the Put Options exercised Alternative 1, holders of 10 percent of the Put Options chose the second alternative, and holders of 2 percent of the Put Options dissented.
8. Major Customers
During the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company only operated in oil and gas producing activities.
The Company recorded oil and gas sales to the following major customers for the years ended March 31:

Stock and Warrants Issued for Service
As part of Joseph F. Langston’s consideration for services as a Company officer and director he is due to receive 30,000 shares valued at $36,600.
Mr. Langston’s long term consulting agreement, entered into on December 18, 2007, provides for an annual salary of $60,000 per year and a $60,000 bonus paid in shares. The bonus resulted in the issuance of 65,217 common shares valued at $53,478. In addition to this basic compensation, Mr. Langston receives up to 1,200,000 stock purchase warrants which are earned based on net production in the Wardlaw Field measured on an average daily basis by month determination and 300,000 warrants based on the successful closing of a Company financing of $1 million or more. The warrants have not been earned and no expense has been recognized as of March 31, 2008.
Applewood Energy plc represents the services to be provided by Paul Watson, the Company Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Similar to Mr. Langston, Applewood received a consulting agreement on November 27, 2007, providing for an annual salary of $60,000 per year and a $60,000 bonus paid in shares. The bonus resulted in the issuance of 34,482 common shares valued at $28,276. Mr. Watson is a geologist and engineering professional with direct oversight of field operations. Consequently, in addition to this basic compensation, Applewood receives up to 1,600,000 stock purchase warrants which are earned based on net production in the Wardlaw Field measured on an average daily basis by month determination. The warrants have not been earned and no expense has been recognized as of March 31, 2008.
On November 28, 2007 we entered into, a 12 month consulting agreement with DK True Energy Development Ltd. and RTP Secure Energy Corp. These Consultants are to provide us services that include reservoir, geological, and engineering analysis. These Consultants agreed to accept warrants to purchase up to a total of 9,000,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.05 per share, exercisable after December 31, 2007 and only on a cashless basis in place of cash compensation. The number of shares that would be issued are determined by multiplying the difference between the fair market value of the common stock and the warrant exercise price times the number of shares to be purchased and divide the product by the fair market value of the common stock. The fair market value of the common stock is computed by taking the average of the closing bid and asked prices of the common stock quoted in the Over-The-Counter Market or the last reported sale price of the common stock or the closing price quoted on the Nasdaq Capital Market or on any exchange on which the common stock is listed for the 30 trading days prior to the date of the company’s receipt of the warrant. The warrants will have a 5 year term. DK True Energy Development Ltd. will have the right to purchase 5,250,000 shares of our common stock and RTP Secure Energy will have the right to purchase 3,750,000 shares of our common stock. Blackwood Ventures LLC, has executed a voting agreement to approve the Consultants’ warrants. The right to purchase 1,147,500 shares of our common stock will vest 20 days following the date the information statement was sent to our shareholders; the right to purchase 2,452,500 shares of common stock will vest when we announce that we are implementing a development program based on the results of a pilot program completed for the Wardlaw field; and the right to purchase 5,400,000 shares of our common stock will vest at the rate of 675,000 shares when we produce an average of 250 barrels of oil per day over 30 days (“bopd30av”), 500 bopd30av, 750 bopd30av, 1,000 bopd30av, 1,250 bopd30av, 1,500 bopd30av, 1750 bopd30av and 2,000 bopd30av. The warrant will be fully vested when production reaches 2,000 bopd30av. This warrant issuance resulted in an expense of $395,346.
On January 15, 2008, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Blackwood Capital Ltd. effective September 1, 2007, for a term of one year, which can be terminated by either party on 45 days notice, for cash compensation of $15,000 per month, plus expense reimbursement. In addition, the Company issued a warrant for the purchase of 1,500,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.05 per share. The term of the warrant is four years and the warrant has a cashless exercise provision, at the holder’s election, such that fewer than 1,500,000 shares may be issued upon full exercise. On January 15, 2008, the closing price of our common stock was $0.82. The issuance of this warrant required the expense of $552,550.

Stock Option Plans
In January 2008, our board of directors approved and adopted the United Heritage Corporation 2008 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). We have reserved 5,000,000 shares of common stock for awards that will be granted from the Plan. The awards are subject to adjustment in the event of stock dividends, recapitalizations, stock splits, reverse stock splits, subdivisions, combinations, reclassifications or similar changes in our capital structure. The Plan became effective upon adoption by the board, and, unless earlier terminated in accordance with the terms and provisions thereof, will remain in effect for a period of ten years from the date of adoption.
Directors of the Company adopted the 1995 Stock Option Plan effective September 11, 1995. This Plan set aside 66,667 shares of the authorized but unissued common stock of the Company for issuance under the Plan. Options may be granted to directors, officers, consultants, and/or employees of the Company and/or its subsidiaries. Options granted under the Plan must be exercised within five years after the date of grant, but may be affected by the termination of employment. No options have been granted since 1998 and none are outstanding under this plan.
Directors of the Company adopted the 1998 Stock Option Plan effective July 1, 1998. This Plan and its subsequent amendment set aside 66,667 shares of the authorized but unissued common stock of the Company for issuance under the Plan. Options may be granted to directors, officers, consultants, and/or employees of the Company and/or its subsidiaries. Options granted under the Plan are exercisable over a period to be determined when granted, but may be affected by the termination of employment. As a result of a grant in January 2006 to the Company’s chief executive officer, discussed in more detail below, options to purchase 66,667 shares are outstanding under this plan.
Directors of the Company adopted the 2000 Stock Option Plan effective June 5, 2000. This Plan set aside 1,666,667 shares of the authorized but unissued common stock of the Company for issuance under the Plan. Options may be granted to directors, officers, consultants, advisors, and/or employees of the Company and/or its subsidiaries. Options granted under the Plan must be exercised within the number of years determined by the Stock Option Committee and allowed in the Stock Option Agreement. The Stock Option Agreement may provide that a period of time must elapse after the date of grant before the options are exercisable. The options may not be exercised as to less than 100 shares at any one time.
On May 30, 2003 the Company granted 1,051,667 options under the 2000 Stock Option Plan. The options were granted to directors, employees and others. The options vest over a two-year period with terms of three to five years. The exercise price is $1.50 per share. During fiscal year 2006, the Company granted an option for 40,000 shares to a member of the Board of Directors for and in consideration of services provided to the Company.

On March 3, 2008, the Company granted options to purchase 170,000 shares to the Company’s Directors for and in consideration of services provided to the Company. These options were issued at a weighted average exercise price of $1.03 per share for a term of three years.
The Black-Scholes option-pricing model was used to estimate the option fair values. The option-pricing model requires a number of assumptions, of which the most significant are the risk free rate, the expected stock price volatility, the expected pre-vesting forfeiture rate and the expected option term (the amount of time from the grant date until the options are exercised or expire). The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Expected volatility was calculated based upon actual historical stock price movements over the most recent periods ending March 31, 2008. The expected option term was calculated based on the vesting period and the polling of the option holder. The expected forfeiture rate is based on historical experience and expectations about future forfeitures.
The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table.
                 
Weighted average Black-Scholes fair value            
assumptions:   2008     2007

The stock options described in Note 10 related to the options with $1.50 and $2.91 exercise prices were modified to extend the expiration date to March 31, 2009, add a put feature where the option holder can put the option back to the Company for the difference between $4.00 per share and the purchase price between April 1, 2008 and April 10, 2008 and add a call feature whereby the Company can call the option for the difference between $7.50 and the purchase price. Since the put feature does not subject the holder to the normal risks of share ownership, the options are classified as liability awards and recorded at fair value. A liability and corresponding expense of $2,727,186 has been recorded in the accompanying financial statements as of March 31, 2007. The liability was $2,147,770 at March 31, 2008. An additional expense of $253,919 was incurred during the year end March 31, 2008 related to the accrued put options.
On January 15, 2008, the Company entered into an agreement to convert an $833,335 option put right held by Walter G.

Stock Warrants
The Company entered into stock warrant agreements effective January 12, 2004. Pursuant to the agreements, the Company issued 500,000 warrants to purchase common stock $2.25 (250,000 warrants) and $3.00 (250,000 warrants) in connection with a private placement.

As referenced in previous financial statements, the Company entered into stock warrant agreements effective April 2004 in connection with the offering of convertible promissory notes relating to a proposed merger.

11. Income Taxes
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for differences between financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense is the tax payable or refundable for the period plus or minus the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.
The Company has no federal tax provision due to its operating losses.
The effective tax rate on the net loss before income taxes differs from the U.S. statutory rate as follows:
                 
    2008     2007  
U.S. statutory rate
    34 %     34 %
Related party forgiveness of debt

The net change in the valuation allowance for 2008 was an increase of $431,483 and 2007 had an increase of $3,729,296. The deferred tax asset is due primarily to the net operating loss carryover and the accrued put option expense.
The Company has a net operating loss carryover of approximately $16,400,000 available to offset future income for income tax reporting purposes, which will expire between 2007 and 2028, if not previously utilized. However, to the change in majority ownership in 2007 and 2008, the Company’s ability to use the carryover net operating loss may be substantially limited or eliminated pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 382.
We adopted the provisions of FIN 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, on April 1, 2007. We had no material unrecognized income tax assets or liabilities at the date of adoption or during the twelve months ended March 31, 2008.
Our policy regarding income tax interest and penalties is to expense those items as general and administrative expense but to identify them for tax purposes. During the twelve months ended March 31, 2008, there were no income tax interest and penalty items in the income statement, or as a liability on the balance sheet. We file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state jurisdictions. With few exceptions, we are no longer subject to U.S. federal or state income tax examination by tax authorities for years before 2004. We are not currently involved in any income tax examinations.
12. Stock Bonus Plan
The Company has a stock bonus plan, which provides incentive compensation for its directors, officers, and key employees. The Company has reserved 30,000 shares of common stock for issuance under the plan. As of March 31, 2007, 27,800 shares had been issued and remain outstanding in accordance with the plan. No shares were issued under the plan in 2007 or 2008.

13. Contingencies
The Company is involved in various claims incidental to the conduct of our business. Based on consultation with legal counsel, we do not believe that any claims, either individually or in the aggregate, to which the Company is a party will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
14. 2002 Consultant Equity Plan
In August 2002, the Company adopted “The 2002 Consultant Equity Plan”, whereby 333,333 shares of unissued common stock were reserved for issuance to consultants, independent contractors and advisors in exchange for bona fide services rendered not in connection with a capital raising transaction. All shares reserved under the plan have been issued as of March 31, 2006.
15. Subsequent Events (Unaudited)
On June 30, 2008, the Board of Directors of the Company increased Mr. Langston’s cash payments from $5,000 per month, to $12,500 per month. In addition, the Board of Directors awarded Mr. Langston 250,000 stock purchase options, vesting immediately, and a further 250,000 stock purchase warrants vesting in six months.
On June 30, 2008 the Board of Directors amended the compensation for Directors. They approved that each director could chose, calendar quarterly, their form of compensation. Each director has the option of $5,000 of common stock per month or 5,000 stock purchase options, with each price as of the closing bid price on the first day of the calendar quarter. The current agreement provides for 5,000 stock purchase options were month, with the price fixed at the first day of the period. The period was assumed to be October 1 (price of $0.91), for the fiscal year ended March31, 2008, and April 1, 2008 (price of $0.54) for the current fiscal year, and each year thereafter.
On June 30, 2008 the Board of Directors approved the hiring of Bill Hopper as Vice President of Operations. His employment agreement is for one year with compensation for $6,000 per month, auto use, expense reimbursement and 100,000 stock purchase options (Stock Option Plan) priced as of May 1, 2008, and vested in one year.
On June 30, 2008 the Board approved the independent consulting agreement of Barry Pierce and the hiring of him as Controller with a one year contract at $10,000 per month ($120,000 per annum), expense reimbursement, and 100,000 stock purchase options to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock at 1.00 per share, fully vested after one year (Stock Option Plan).
On June 30, 2008 the Board approved the WindHydro Participation agreement in which we have received $250,000 in May 2008 as the down payment for Phase 1, as well as $270,000 in late June as a PIPE financing. Their Shareholders have approved the LOI, and they are expected to sign the Participation Agreement over the next few weeks.
On June 30, 2008 the Board approved the offer by Richardson Patel to convert their May 2008 billing into common stock, subject to the Blackwood Capital’s approval.
On June 30, 2008 the Board approved a 1 for 200 reverse split the stock, then an immediate purchase the fractional shares at the then market price, and then on the same day a 200 for 1 forward split. The result (based on shareholders of record as of April 28, 2008 would be the repurchase of approximately 18,000 shares, which would eliminate 1,385 shareholders, which hold an average of 13 shares. This would leave approximately 93 shareholders of record.

The Company had option agreements to ex-employees and directors which exercised at $1.50 and $2.91 exercise prices. These options were modified to extend the expiration date to March 31, 2009, to add a put feature where the option holder can put the option back to the Company for the difference between $4.00 per share and the purchase price between April 1, 2008 and April 10, 2008, and to add a call feature whereby the Company can call the option for the difference between $7.50 and the purchase price. Since the put feature does not subject the holder to the normal risks of share ownership, the options the Company has classified the put options as liability awards and recorded at fair value. A liability and corresponding expense of $2,727,186 has been recorded in the prior financial statements. A majority of these option puts were exercised. The Company offered the option put holders the same conversion as Walter Mize elected on January 16, 2008. On July 3, 2008, owners of approximately 54% of these options elected to convert the Company’s put obligation to restricted common stock at $0.75 per share, subject to a voting trust and first right of refusal to Blackwood Ventures LLC. Approximately 41% elected to continue the option period until December 31, 2009, for consideration of 10% per annum, payable quarterly with a provision for payment in kind. Approximately 5% did not make an election and their units are held as current liability pending resolution. These transactions have not closed, and are contingent upon the completion of the definitive agreements. Should these transactions close, the Company’s liabilities would be reduced by $1,166,669.
May 27, 2008, the Company signed a letter of intent (‘LOI’), to sell for $2.5 million a 50% interest in 2,560 acres (25%) of its Wardlaw Field to Wind Hydrogen Limited (‘WHL’), a publicly-listed company on the Australian Stock Exchange (‘ASX’). The Wardlaw lease is a 10,502 gross acre field located in Edwards County, Texas. The WHL joint venture is subject to the respective Parties’ satisfactory due diligence, signing of definitive agreements, board approval and WHL shareholder approval. In addition, WHL has purchased two options to expand the venture for 2,560 acres each. The WHL joint venture has received WHL shareholder approval, preliminary due diligence is completed, and signing of a definitive Participation Agreements is contemplated by mid-July.

17. Supplementary Financial Information for Oil and Gas Producing Activities (Unaudited)
Proved Reserves
Independent petroleum engineers have estimated the Company’s proved oil and gas reserves, all of which are located in the United States. Proved reserves are the estimated quantities that geologic and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions. Proved developed reserves are the quantities expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods. Due to the inherent uncertainties and the limited nature of reservoir data, such estimates are subject to change as additional information becomes available.
The reserves actually recovered and the timing of production of these reserves may be substantially different from the original estimate. Revisions result primarily from new information obtained from development drilling and production history and from changes in economic factors.

Standardized Measure
The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows (“standardized measure”) and changes in such cash flows are prepared using assumptions required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board. Such assumptions include the use of year-end prices for oil and gas and year-end costs for estimated future development and production expenditures to produce year-end estimated proved reserves. Discounted future net cash flows are calculated using a 10% rate. Estimated future income taxes are calculated by applying year-end statutory rates to future pre-tax net cash flows, less the tax basis of related assets and applicable tax credits.
The standardized measure does not represent management’s estimate of the Company’s future cash flows or the value of proved oil and gas reserves. Probable and possible reserves, which may become proved in the future, are excluded from the calculations. Furthermore, year-end prices used to determine the standardized measure of discounted cash flows, are influenced by seasonal demand and other factors and may not be the most representative in estimating future revenues or reserve data.
