PART I

ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Capital Reserve Corporation was incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado on August 3, 1982, for the purpose of operating as a financial services holding company.

From 1988 through October 1994, Capital Reserve and its subsidiaries held various insurance agency licenses and sold life, accident and health insurance policies in the States of Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona. In 1994, Capital Reserve determined it could no longer maintain capital and surplus requirements for its insurance operations. As a result, on October 14, 1994, Capital Reserve sold all of the issued and outstanding shares of one of its subsidiaries, First West Life Insurance Company. Capital Reserve sold the shares to Old Reliance Insurance Company, an Arizona domiciled insurance company, for $1,227,301 in cash. Old Reliance was not affiliated with Capital Reserve, any of its affiliates or any director or officer of Capital Reserve. As a condition to closing, approvals were obtained from the Department of Insurance for the States of Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona.

On August 17, 1994, Capital Reserve dissolved Flexible Benefits, Inc., which was a wholly-owned subsidiary. This company had been a third party administrator of plans under Section 125 of the Internal Revenue Code.

After the sale of First West Financial Services, Capital Reserve's main assets were real estate and cash from the sale. The real estate was comprised of a building and land located in Englewood, Colorado. The land was comprised of slightly less than one acre and the building contained 13,479 square feet of rentable space. At that time, the building housed all of Capital Reserve's operations, which occupied 750 square feet. The rental of this property become the main activity of Capital Reserve and remained its main activity through June 1996. On July 3, 1996 Capital Reserve sold this property for net proceeds of $501,276.

From July 1996 through the end of the fiscal year 1997, Capital Reserve, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Wall Street Investment Corp., attempted to start a financial consulting services business. However, during fiscal year 1997, this venture generated only $21,935 in gross revenues and an operating loss of $6,615. As of March 20, 1998 neither Capital Reserve nor Wall Street Investment had any operations and Capital Reserve was seeking a major acquisition opportunity. Wall Street was later dissolved in July 2000.

On October 6, 1998, a change in control in Capital Reserve occurred when Mr. Glen C. Loder agreed to acquire the interests of Mr. Ralph W. Newton, Jr. and Patricia L. Newton. At the time, Mr. Newton was the President of Capital Reserve Corporation. Collectively Mr. and Mrs. Newton owned a majority of the outstanding shares of Capital Reserve Class B Preferred Stock, which as a class had the right to elect a majority of Capital Reserve's Board of Directors. In connection with such agreement, Mr. Newton and Mrs. Linda M. Opfer resigned as officers and directors of Capital Reserve. On October 6, 1998, Mr. Loder was appointed as President, Treasurer and a director and Mrs. Sharon Patmore was appointed as Secretary and a director. The acquisition of the Newton's shares closed on February 3, 1999.

Mr. Loder passed away on October 26, 1999. Following Mr. Loder's death, Capital Reserve's legal counsel, Mr. W. Scott Lawler, was appointed President until a successor could be located. Mr. Lawler was also named to the Board of Directors. Mr. Lawler had been serving as Capital Reserve's legal counsel since June 1999. In April 2000, Mr. Lawler relocated from California to Calgary, Alberta in order to focus more attention on the needs of Capital Reserve.

During fiscal year 2000, we made an investment in Texas T Petroleum Ltd., a private Colorado corporation. During the year we loaned a total of $1,608,523 to Texas T Petroleum. On October 31, 2000, we converted $1,000,000 of this loan into 2,000,000 units of Texas T Petroleum, with each unit is comprised of a share of common stock of Texas T Petroleum and a warrant to purchase an additional share for $1.00. The remainder of our loan to Texas T Petroleum was repaid on November 1, 2000. Capital Reserve used working capital and proceeds for the sale of its common stock to fund this investment. This investment in Texas T Petroleum represents 9% of Texas T's issued and outstanding shares.

As of the date of this filing, Capital Reserve has one (1) wholly-owned subsidiary, Capital Reserve Canada Limited. Capital Reserve Canada Limited was incorporated in the Province of Alberta, Canada, on December 8, 1999 and is in the business of locating and acquiring real estate and oil and gas properties.

As Capital Reserve Corporation is a U.S. corporation, all dollar amounts used herein refer to U.S. dollars.

Current Operations

Real Estate

Capital Reserve owns a commercial building that offers approximately 22,146 square feet of office space and laboratory space. This commercial building is located in the City of Calgary, Alberta and is used by Capital Reserve to generate income and also is used for its corporate headquarters.

Capital Reserve acquired the building for $1,519,000 in August 2000. Capital Reserve obtained a mortgage in the amount of $1,066,080 and used working capital of approximately $452,275 to purchase the building. The principal and interest payments on the mortgage are $15,209 monthly or $188,508 annually.

Capital Reserve has leased out all of the available space in this building that it does not occupy. Toshiba of Canada Limited has leased 6,546 feet of office space under a five year lease agreement at $50,161 per year, plus operating costs of $41,956. Synergy Technologies Corporation leases 8,414 square feet of office space and 4,364 square feet of laboratory space under a five year lease at $154,498 per year plus operating costs of $94,452.

Capital Reserve has leased out 2,822 square feet of office and lab space at $22,561 per year plus operating costs of $19,264 to its wholly-owned subsidiary, Capital Reserve Canada Limited. Capital Reserve Canada Limited has subleased all of this space in two separate sublease agreements. The first sublease is with an unrelated party for five years and generates $25,682 annual lease payments plus operating costs of $16,445. The second sublease is with Texas T Petroleum Ltd. for five years and generates $5,967 in annual lease payments. Texas T Petroleum and Synergy Technologies are joint owners of the CPJ Technology in which Capital Reserve has assisted in the development. Such technology and development is described in "Technology Investments" below.

Although Synergy Technologies has interests and operations separate from the CPJ Technology, it is possible that in the event Synergy Technologies fails to realize revenues from its investment in the CPJ Technology, this could significantly impact Synergy Technologies' ability to perform its obligations under this lease agreement.

Oil and Gas Properties

On March 1, 2000, Capital Reserve Canada Limited acquired a 5% interest in four wells and a gathering facility in a producing oil and gas field known as Chestermere located in Alberta, Canada.

The cost of the acquisition of this field was $612,630, which was paid by way of $204,105 in cash and in 817,050 shares of common stock of Capital Reserve, at a deemed price of $0.50 per share. The cash payment was made from the draw down of $204,105 from a stand-by operating line of credit provided to Capital Reserve Canada by the Alberta Treasury Branches. This line of credit was originally granted in the maximum amount of approximately $690,000. The Alberta Treasury Branches later reduced the line of credit to the outstanding balance of $199,860 due to lack of use. The line has an annual interest rate of the Bank of Canada prime rate plus 1%. Currently there is no provision for an increase in the line of credit. The line of credit is secured by a floating charge debenture over all of Capital Reserve Canada's assets. The Alberta Treasury Branches is an Agent of the Crown in right of the Province of Alberta, Canada and operates under the Alberta Treasury Branches Act, Statutes of Alberta, 1997. Under that Act, Alberta Treasury Branches was established as a provincial corporation.

Capital Reserve Canada's average monthly net revenue from this interest for fiscal year 2000 was $5,500. During fiscal year 2000, Capital Reserve Canada spent $36,500 on capital expenditures for workovers and re-completion of the wells. During fiscal year 2001, we will continue to perform re-completions and workovers on the existing wells to increase the production of both oil and gas. We anticipate that these expenditures will not exceed $25,000. Capital Reserve Canada believes this is a worthwhile endeavour as the market price for these resources has increased since the time these wells were acquired.

Technology Investment

Capital Reserve has become interested in a heavy oil upgrading technology. As a result of this interest, Capital Reserve has made an equity investment in one of two companies that own the technology. The proceeds of the investment were being to assist in the development of the technology.

As discussed above under "DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS", Capital Reserve has a 9% interest in Texas T Petroleum Ltd., a Colorado corporation, of which Mr. James F. Marsh is president and a director; Mr. Marsh is also the president and a director of Capital Reserve Canada Limited. Texas T Petroleum Ltd. owns 50% of the outstanding shares of Carbon Resources Limited, a Cyprus corporation which owns this proprietary patented technology. This technology is believed to be able to reduce by up to 70% of the costs associated with upgrading heavy crude oil to light crude oil. The pilot unit constructed by Carbon Resources Limited to demonstrate and test the capabilities of this technology is located in Capital Reserve's commercial real estate building in Calgary, Alberta. Synergy Technologies Corporation, the other 50% owner of Carbon Resources, is the major tenant of Capital Reserve's commercial real estate building.

During the fiscal year 2000, Capital Reserve agreed with Texas T Resources Inc. to fund a portion of Texas T Petroleum Ltd.'s acquisition of the heavy oil upgrading technology described in the preceding paragraph. Texas T Resources Inc. is a public corporation organized under the laws of British Columbia, Canada, whose stock is traded on the Canadian Venture Stock Exchange under the symbol "TXT". Texas T Resources is the majority shareholder of Texas T Petroleum Ltd. On August 1, 2000 Capital Reserve entered into a private placement agreement with Texas T Resources Inc. for 2,000,000 units at $0.0677 per unit, each unit comprised of one share and one share purchase warrant entitling Capital Reserve to purchase one additional share at $0.0880 for a period of two years. Capital Reserve paid cash consideration for these units. Investments at December 31, 2000 had a book value of $133,240.

Employees

As of March 30, 2001, Capital Reserve and its subsidiary had 1 full-time employee and 2 part-time employees. The tasks and duties undertaken by Capital Reserve's employees include managerial, legal counseling, administrative, accounting and review of oil and gas prospects.

ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

During fiscal year 2000, Capital Reserve purchased three pieces of real estate all located in the City of Calgary; two of these properties are commercial real estate buildings and the other is residential. The first commercial building is 22,146 square feet of office space and laboratory space. Capital Reserve has entered into head lease agreements with 3 tenants that occupy all of the space in this commercial building including its wholly-owned subsidiary, Capital Reserve Canada Limited. One of the head lease agreements is between Capital Reserve and Toshiba, which was assigned to Capital Reserve upon the purchase of the building. The Toshiba lease generates $92,117 in annual lease payments and operating costs. This lease expires in July 2005.

The second head lease agreement is with Synergy Technologies Corporation for 8,414 square feet of office space and 4,364 square feet of laboratory facilities for a term of five years. The Synergy lease generates $248,950 in annual lease payments and operating costs. This lease expires in August 2005.

The third head lease agreement is with Capital Reserve Canada Limited for 2,822 square feet of office space and lab space for a term of 5 years. The lease generates $41,825 in annual lease payments and operating costs. Capital Reserve Canada has subleased all of this space under two sublease agreements. One of the sublease agreements expire in January 2005 and the other in October 2005. They generate in the aggregate $48,094 in annual lease payments and operating costs.

The second commercial real estate building was purchased by Capital Reserve at the end of fiscal year 2000 for $178,310 cash. This building has approximately 14,000 square feet of usable office space. Capital Reserve is currently renovating the building prior to offering it for lease. The renovations are anticipated to cost a total of $190,000. Upon completion, Capital Reserve intends to offer long-term leases at the approximate rate of $8.00 per square foot on an annual basis, plus actual operating costs.

Capital Reserve purchased a residential property for the use of its President, Mr. W. Scott Lawler, who relocated to Calgary from California to devote his time and attention to the needs of Capital Reserve. Mr. Lawler pays for all costs associated with this property, including mortgage payments, real estate taxes, insurance, maintenance and utilities.

To date, Capital Reserve's investments in property have been limited to real estate that it believes will generate monthly income and positive cash flow. At this time, Capital Reserve has no stated policy regarding any future investments in property other than to invest in properties that will generate monthly income. As our portfolio grows, it is our intent to limit any potential investments to no more than 25% of our total assets.

Capital Reserve currently has investments in commercial and residential real property located in the City of Calgary, Alberta. Its current policy regarding real estate investments is to invest in commercial properties that it believes will generate positive monthly net income. Any new acquisitions of real estate are expected to be purchased through debt and equity financing. All operations of proposed property acquisitions will be handled through property management companies.

(b) RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES

On October 6, 1998, Ralph P. Newton, Jr., and Patricia L. Newton, the wife of Ralph P. Newton, Jr., entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement to sell their combined 140,000 shares of Class B Preferred Stock to Glen C. Loder. At the time of the transaction, Mr. Newton was a director and President of Capital Reserve. Mr. Loder paid the Newtons $40,000 for the shares ($0.35 per share).

Pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, Capital Reserve conducted a private placement of 865,000 shares as described in the next paragraph. The first $40,000 from the sale of the shares was paid by Capital Reserve to Mr. Loder. On February 3, 1999, Mr. Loder paid Mr. and Mrs. Newton $40,000 to complete the acquisition of their shares. Mr. Loder also caused Capital Reserve to grant the Newtons stock options, granting the Newtons the right to acquire up to 200,000 shares of Capital Reserve's Class A Common Stock at a price of $0.25 per share on or before February 3, 2001. The agreement included an anti-dilution provision. In December 2000, Capital Reserve re-negotiated the option agreement with the Newtons due to the fact that there was a disagreement over the effect of the anti-dilution provision. In exchange for a reduction of the exercise price from $0.25 per share to $0.13 per share, the parties agreed to the cancellation of 100,000 of the options. The Newtons then immediately exercised the option on the remaining 100,000 options by paying to Capital Reserve the exercise price of $13,000.

From November 1998 through February 1999, Capital Reserve conducted a private placement of shares of Capital Reserve's common stock, no par value pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D, promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933. Sales were made to a total of eight Canadian individuals and two foreign corporations, who are listed below. A total of 865,000 shares were sold at a price of $0.10 per share, for gross proceeds of $86,500. Capital Reserve paid commissions of $8,590.00 to persons assisting Capital Reserve with sales. No other discounts or commissions were paid and no underwriters were utilized. The subscribers to this offering were:

Maximillian Greisser

Cormorant Shipping Ltd.

Douglas Raspberry

James MacKay

Gaba Ventures

Adrianne Damgaard

Ralph Thompson

Dorothy Bell

Elsco Construction (1990) Ltd.

William Bell

During 1999, Capital Reserve offered each of the purchasers of shares in the private placement an opportunity to rescind their purchases based upon previous statements by Capital Reserve that it would not pay commissions on sales of shares. Each of the purchasers declined Capital Reserve's rescission offer.

In November 1999, Capital Reserve made two (2) private placements of shares of its common stock to off-shore entities pursuant to Regulation S promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Act. One of the private placements was to Ocean Exploration Ltd., a private Belize corporation, for 113,820 units at $0.10 per unit, with Capital Reserve incurring commissions and offering expenses of $3,250. The units sold under the latter placement consisted of one share and a warrant to acquire a like number of additional shares of common stock at $1.00 per share. The other private placement to Grotto Holdings Ltd., a private Belize corporation, was for 325,000 shares at $0.10 per share. No underwriter was utilized in either of these offerings and no commissions were paid.

On July 22, 1999, Capital Reserve commenced a private placement offering, pursuant to Rule 506 promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933, of up to 2,000,000 units, each unit comprised of one share of common stock and a warrant to purchase an additional share of common stock for $1.00. As of March 31, 2000, the offering was oversubscribed. During the quarter ended June 30, 2000, Capital Reserve elected to exercise its right under the terms of the offering to accept a portion of the subscriptions. As a result, Capital Reserve sent a letter to the subscribers notifying them that they could either receive a return of a portion of their subscription or apply a portion of their subscription towards the exercise of the warrants issuable with their subscriptions. As a result, certain of the subscribers elected to exercise a total of 415,730 warrants and certain subscribers requested back any funds in trust or on deposit. The offering closed on July 27, 2000, and all of the shares have been issued. The following is a list of the subscribers:

On March 21, 2000, Capital Reserve's wholly-owned subsidiary, Capital Reserve Canada Limited, purchased an interest in certain oil and gas producing leases and a process facility located in Alberta, Canada, known as Chestermere. On June 8, 2000, as part of the consideration for this purchase, Capital Reserve, issued 817,050 shares of it's common stock to Stone Canyon Resources Ltd., an Alberta corporation. See, "MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS".

On April 24, 2000, Capital Reserve's President and a member of its Board of Directors, Mr. W. Scott Lawler, subscribed for a private placement of 167,842 shares of common stock at $1.00 per share. The shares were issued pursuant to the exemption from registration found in Rule 506 promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933. No commissions or finders fee was paid in connection with this offering. The net proceeds to Capital Reserve realized from this offering was $167,842.

On September 25, 2000, Capital Reserve issued 500,000 shares of its common stock to Dr. Pierre Jorgensen. These shares were valued at $1.875 per share. Dr. Jorgensen is the inventor of the heavy oil upgrading technology that is described above in "CURRENT OPERATIONS - Technology Investment".

Mr. Lawler receives monthly directors' fees from Capital Reserve in the amount of 5,000 shares of Class A common stock. On February 15, 2001, Capital Reserve issued 60,000 shares to Mr. Lawler for the directors' fees he earned during fiscal year 2000. No issuance for fiscal year 2001 has yet been made.

 

ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

GENERAL

During the fiscal year ended 2000, Capital Reserve's operations were limited to passive investments in oil and gas leases, two commercial real estate buildings, an equity interest in a company that has a fifty percent interest in a heavy oil upgrading technology and an investment in a Canadian reporting company traded on the Canadian Venture Stock Exchange. Each of these investments were acquired during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000. See above, "CURRENT OPERATIONS - Technology Investment". Through fiscal years 1998 and 1999, management disposed of most of Capital Reserve's assets and applied the proceeds from the sale of those assets to decreasing Capital Reserve's outstanding liabilities. Capital Reserve conducted a number of financings during fiscal years 1999 and 2000. Capital from equity issues or borrowings is required to fund future operations. Therefore, the audited financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, are not necessarily indicative of Capital Reserve's future operations.

LIQUIDITY

Cash flows from continuing operations during fiscal years 2000 and 1999 reflect net cash provided of $151,891 and ($310,818) , respectively while cash flows provided by investing activities for the same periods were ($4,083,237) and zero, respectively. The increase in cash flows from continuing operations for the period ended December 31, 2000 over the same period from the previous year is due to collection of accounts receivable and financing provided to Capital Reserve in connection with the purchase of real estate. The decrease in cash flows from investing activities is due to the fact that Capital Reserve made substantial investments during fiscal year 2000 in oil and gas properties, commercial real estate, residential real estate and securities in companies developing a heavy oil upgrading technology. See "CURRENT OPERATIONS".

At December 31, 2000 and 1999, Capital Reserve had working capital of $103,798 and $7,997, respectively. As of December 31, 2000, a majority of Capital Reserve's current assets are in the form of loans receivable, which is the most significant cause for the increase in working capital over the same period from the previous year. Since Capital Reserve does not have extensive sources of revenue, working capital could be depleted by operating expenses. Furthermore, if Capital Reserve should generate an operating loss for the current year comparable to the loss incurred for the year ended December 31, 2000, Capital Reserve's remaining cash and working capital will be depleted. Capital Reserve had current liabilities of $283,349 at December 31, 2000 as compared to $75,492 at December 31, 1999.

ASSETS

As at December 31, 2000, Capital Reserve had total assets of $4,499,897, compared to total assets of $195,336 at December 31, 1999. This represents an increase of $4,304,561 which is mainly attributable to Capital Reserve's acquisition of the following assets:

- Chestermere oil and gas properties, net of depletion - $692,279

- equity investments in companies developing heavy oil technology - $1,133,240

- land and commercial buildings $2,267,054

See "CURRENT OPERATIONS" above for a description of these assets.

The remaining assets are cash of $20,909, accounts receivable of $23,460, loans receivables of $310,644, prepaid expenses of $32,134 and office equipment and computers of $20,176, net of depreciation of $5,035.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

As of the date of this filing Capital Reserve has limited sources of income. During fiscal year 2000, Capital Reserve relied primarily upon the proceeds of $2,393,393 from the sale of shares of common stock and $1,476,505 from long-term financing to pay its expenses. For the fiscal year end December 31, 2000, Capital Reserve had total revenues of $296,300. Comparatively, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999, Capital Reserve had no revenues. Capital Reserve's revenues from fiscal year 2000 were not sufficient to meet its total operational expenses. Capital Reserve's sources of revenue were limited to rental income of $181,578 and revenues of $114,722 from a 5% working interest in oil and gas leases and a process facility, known as Chestermere.

Most of the rental income is associated with a 5 year written lease agreement, which generates $20,746 in monthly lease payments, including operating costs. Capital Reserve has 2 other written lease agreements (one that expires in July 2005 and the other expires in August 2005), which generate in the aggregate monthly rental income of $11,162, including operating costs. While the income from the first lease meets Capital Reserve's monthly obligations under its lease agreement, there is no assurance that this lease will continue beyond its current term.

Capital Reserve intends to remain involved in Texas T's funding of the development of a heavy-oil upgrading technology, which is believed to reduce the costs of upgrading heavy crude oil to light crude oil by 70%. Texas T's funding of this technology has resulted in Texas T Petroleum Ltd.'s owning 50% of the shares of Carbon Resources Limited. Carbon Resources Limited owns this heavy oil upgrading technology. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000, Capital Reserve loaned to Texas T Petroleum Ltd. a total of $1,608,523, which was comprised of cash in the amount of $671,023 and 500,000 shares of common stock valued at $937,500 or $1.875 per share. Capital Reserve converted a portion of this loaned amount into 2,000,000 units of Texas T Petroleum, which were valued at $1,000,000 or $0.50 per unit. The remaining $608,523 was repaid to Capital Reserve on November 1, 2000. Each unit of Texas T Petroleum is comprised of one share of Texas T Petroleum common stock and a warrant to purchase an additional share for $1.00. Capital Reserve shareholdings represent 9% of Texas T Petroleum's issued and outstanding shares of common stock. Capital Reserve's continued involvement in this project will require Capital Reserve to provide additional funds. The amount of such additional funds has not been determined at this time.

Capital Reserve, most likely, will need to attempt to raise additional funds from equity sales, borrowings, joint ventures or merger/acquisition candidates to meet the funding needs of this project and also its operating expenses.

Capital Reserve's net operating loss for the year 2000 increased by approximately 316% over the previous year due to increases in salaries, rent, entertainment, acquisition reviews, legal expenses and consulting fees.

Capital Reserve has shown on its statements of operations as interest income the amount of interest that accrued on the promissory notes it held from Texas T Resources Inc. and Stone Canyon Resources Ltd. during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000. $29,799.12 accrued on the note from Texas T Resources Inc. and $12,262.75 accrued on the note from Stone Canyon Resources Ltd. These notes were repaid during fiscal year 2000.

Capital Reserve's operating expenses for fiscal year 2000 were comprised primarily of consulting expenses $196,879; legal expenses of $86,514; directors fees of $123,565 and other administrative expenses of $198,464. Since Capital Reserve currently has limited sources of revenue, Capital Reserve's working capital could be negatively impacted in fiscal year 2001 by operating expenses. General and administrative expenses for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000 were $198,464 compared to $63,368 for fiscal year 1999.

Management is in the process of seeking a viable project or company to acquire or with which to merge. Until such an acquisition or merger can be identified, Capital Reserve has limited sources of income. There is no guaranty that management will be able to locate any such acquisition or merger. If Capital Reserve is able to find a suitable merger or acquisition candidate, any such merger or acquisition would most likely result in Capital Reserve having to issue a substantial amount of stock to consummate the transaction.

The Independent Auditors' Report and Note 8 of the Notes to Financial statements accompanying this report state that substantial doubt has been raised about Capital Reserve's ability to continue as a going concern. Capital Reserve's present business operations do not generate sufficient revenues to cover its operating expenses. Capital Reserve would have to obtain other business operations or severely reduce its operating expenses to remain viable, and there can be no assurance that Capital Reserve will be able to do so.

CAPITAL RESERVE CORPORATION

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2000 and 1999

Note 1- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

This summary of significant accounting policies of Capital Reserve Corporation is presented to assist in understanding the Company's financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company's management who is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements, which are stated in U.S. Dollars.

Organization

Capital Reserve Corporation (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado on August 3, 1982 for the purpose of operating as a financial services holding company.

From 1988 through October 1994, the Company and its subsidiaries solicited various life, accident and health insurance policies in the States of Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona. In October 1994, the Company determined it could no longer maintain capital and surplus requirements for its insurance operations.

From 1995 through June 1996, the Company's primary business was the rental of real property. On July 3, 1996, the Company sold its sole property for net proceeds of $501,276.

In 1997, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary Wall Street Investments Corp (WSIC), attempted to start a financial consulting services business. As of April 10, 1999, WSIC was no longer conducting operations and was dissolved in July 2000.

In 1999, the Company's principal place of business moved to Canada. In December 1999, the Company formed a wholly owned subsidiary, Capital Reserve Canada Limited, an Alberta corporation ("Capital Canada"), to locate and acquire producing oil and gas assets in Canada.

As of December 31, 2000, the Company has one (1) wholly owned subsidiary, Capital Reserve Canada Limited. WSIC was included in the consolidated statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999 but was liquidated during the year 2000 and is not included in these statements.

Operations

Lease Agreement/Acquisition of Commercial Property:

In January 2000, the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Capital Canada, acquired approximately 14,107 square feet of office and laboratory space in Calgary, Alberta, pursuant to a written five (5) year lease agreement. The lease agreement included an option to purchase the building (consisting of a total of approximately 22,507 square feet) at a price of $1,519,000. On June 30, 2000, Capital Canada assigned its purchase rights to the Company and gave notification to the Landlord of intent to purchase the building. The Company executed mortgage documents with a local lender to provide $1,066,080 toward the purchase price. The Company paid for the remainder of the purchase price in cash. The Company, at the closing, received a credit of $28,953 applied to the purchase price which amount was equal to fifty percent (50%) of six months of Capital Canada's basic rent payments. The rent expense for the year was reduced by the amount credited to the purchase. The closing took place on August 31, 2000.

During the fourth quarter, the Company purchased a second commercial building for a purchase price of $178,310. The purchase was completed on December 1, 2000.

Oil and Gas Activities:

During the year 2000 the Company began investing in oil and gas operations and has elected to follow the full cost method of accounting for these activities.

Capital Canada acquired a 5% interest in a producing oil and gas field that includes four wells and a gathering facility. The total cost of the acquisition was $612,630 which was paid for in the form of a cash payment of $204,105 and 817,050 shares of common stock of the Company, at a deemed price of $0.50 per share.

The Company entered into a Farmout Agreement and Casing Point Agreement with Hancock Enterprises to purchase a 5% interest in a well known as the Freedom Dome Well located in Rosebud County, Montana which would earn a 4% net revenue interest in the drill spacing unit before payout and a 3.5% net revenue interest after payout, as well as a 3.5% working interest in the balance of 1,766.73 acres. In addition, the Company purchased a 5% interest in a well known as the Pioneer Well located in Garfield County, Montana to earn a 0.58928% working interest in the Tyler formation only, subject to total lease overriding royalties of 19.1%. The Company expended a total of $36,555 on drilling the two wells. Both wells were dry holes.

The Company also purchased a 4% working interest in 54,237.57 acres for $18.00 per acre for a total consideration of $39,051. The Company is presently reviewing other drilling opportunities on the remaining partnership lands.

Acquisition of Residential Property

In connection with a Consulting Agreement agreed to between the Company and its President, Mr. W. Scott Lawler (See "Consulting Agreements" below), the Company and Mr. Lawler agreed that the Company would purchase a home in the City of Calgary for Mr. Lawler's personal use. The purchase price of the home was $541,241. The Company assumed a variable interest rate mortgage from ATB in the amount of $384,554 amortized over 25 years, due and payable on May 1, 2005. On May 1, 2005, the mortgage can either be repaid or renewed with the interest rate converted to the then prevailing fixed rate. The monthly payments of principal and interest, property taxes and all other payments are Mr. Lawler's obligation. Title to such property is in the name of the Company. Mr. Lawler provided funds to the Company in the amount of $167,842 to pay for the down payment and all closing costs associated with the purchase. The funds were provided in the form of a subscription for shares of Capital Reserve's common stock at the purchase price of $1.00 per share. The net proceeds to Capital Reserve realized from the offering was $167,842, as this offering was made without the use of any agent or salesman and was conducted without any costs, commissions or finders' fees.

If and when the property is sold, the Company will receive any and all gains (and/or losses) from such sale, less the cost of any approved improvements to the property paid for by Mr. Lawler. However, Mr. Lawler has the option of acquiring title to the property (and thus all resulting gains or losses) by (a) assuming or paying off the Company's mortgage; and (b) surrendering to the Company the 167,842 shares of common stock obtained from the Company in a private placement. The Company recognized the principal reduction of the mortgage based on the payments of principal made by Mr. Lawler.

Consulting Agreements

As of April 24, 2000, the Company entered into a Consulting Agreement with its President and a member of its Board of Directors, Mr. W. Scott Lawler, pursuant to which Mr. Lawler agreed to relocate to Calgary, Alberta, Canada, to work at the Company's facilities in Calgary and devote more substantial time to the operations of the Company. The term of the Consulting Agreement is two (2) years, with an option on Mr. Lawler's part to extend for one (1) additional year. Mr. Lawler will receive an annual salary of $75,000.00, plus stock options (at terms yet to be determined) and automatic annual salary increases of fifteen percent (15%). As a further inducement to Mr. Lawler to move to Calgary on the Company's behalf, the Company purchased a home for Mr. Lawler's use. See "Acquisition of Residential Property" above.

 

Use of Estimates in the preparation of the financial statements

The preparation of the Company's financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements for 2000 include the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Capital Reserve Canada Limited. The financial statements for 1999 also included WSIC, which was liquidated in 2000. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Depreciation

Depreciation has been provided in amounts sufficient to relate the costs of depreciable assets to operations over their estimated useful lives principally on the straight-line method from two to five years for office equipment and computers and over 25 years for buildings.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Treasury Stock

Treasury stock has been treated as common stock redeemed and canceled, consistent with the Colorado Revised Statutes.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Earnings (loss) per share of common stock is computed based on 4,724,523 and 1,416,780 weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the years' ended December 31, 2000, and 1999, respectively. Fully diluted earnings per share are not presented because they are anti-dilutive.

Commitments and Contingencies

Effective January 15 through August 31, 2000, Capital Canada had entered into a five-year non-cancellable operating lease with a third party. With the Company purchase of the commercial property effective August 31, 2000 the lease was terminated and therefore there are no longer any lease commitments. See Note 1-Operations- "Lease Agreement/Acquisition of Commercial Property"

Risks and Uncertainties

Note 2 - Private Placement of Common Stock

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999, the Company offered for sale up to 2,000,000 units of common stock at $0.50 per unit, each unit consisting of one share and one warrant to acquire a like number of additional shares of common stock at $1.00 per share. The Company received subscriptions in excess of the total offering and elected to exercise its right under the terms of the offering to accept only a portion of each subscriber's subscription, and to allow each of them to apply the unaccepted portion towards the purchase price of the warrants issuable with the accepted portion of their subscriptions. As a result, 2,000,000 units were issued and certain of the subscribers elected to exercise a total of 415,730 warrants resulting in the issuance of an additional 415,730 shares. The total proceeds to the Company from this offering, including $415,730 from the exercise of warrants and net of commissions and finders fees, were $1,350,930.

Newton that was originally executed on October 6, 1998 for 200,000 options at $0.25 per share. It was unclear from the original option agreement the effect of an anti-dilution provision set forth therein. In exchange for a reduction of the exercise price to $0.13 per share, the parties agreed to the cancellation of 100,000 options. The Company received $13,000 for the exercise of the 100,000 options and the issuance of the shares was approved on December 22, 2000.

In June 2000, the SEC amended SAB 101 to acquire companies with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1999 to implement the provisions of SAB 101 no later than the fourth fiscal quarter. The Company adopted the provision of SAB 101 in fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2000. The Company does not expect the adoption to have material effect on its financial statements.

Note 9- Subsequent Events

An expenditure of approximately $125,000 for renovations on the second commercial building which are expected to be incurred over the first two quarters of 2001.

Note 10 - Income Taxes

The Company, as of December 31, 2000 had approximately $2,510,000 net operating loss carryover that expires between 2001 to 2020. A change in ownership of more than 50% of the Company may result in the inability of the Company to utilize the carryover. The Company had deferred tax assets of approximately $1,200,000 relating to the net operating loss carryover. A valuation allowance has been provided for the total amount since the amounts, if any, of future revenues necessary to be able to utilize the carryover, are uncertain.

For the period ending December 31, 1999, Mr. Lawler earned 15,000 shares. For the period ending December 31, 2000, Mr. Lawler earned an additional 60,000 shares. Mr. Lawler also receives cash compensation for his services as President of Capital Reserve in the amount of $6,250 per month pursuant to a consulting contract. See "CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS".

(2) This compensation was paid in the form of 60,000 restricted shares were awarded to Mr. Lawler as compensation for serving on the board of directors.

(3) Mr. Lawler received this compensation in the form of 72,742 shares as follows: 57,742 as payment for legal fees of $23,155 earned in 1999 as outside counsel and 15,000 shares, valued at $0.10 per share, for the three months of monthly directors fees.

(4) Pursuant to the Management Agreement between Capital Reserve and Glen C. Loder dated October 6, 1998. See "CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS".

Mr. Lawler devotes approximately one-half of his time to Capital Reserve pursuant to a written consulting agreement described in "CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS".

Capital Reserve does not pay non-officer directors for their services as such, nor does it pay any director's fees for attendance at meetings except Mr. Lawler who receives 5,000 shares of common stock per month as director's fees. Directors are reimbursed for any expenses incurred by them in their performance as directors.

Effective October, 6, 1998, Capital Reserve entered into a Management Agreement with Glen C. Loder, an officer and director of Capital Reserve, pursuant to which Mr. Loder had agreed to serve as President and Chairman of the Board of Directors of Capital Reserve. Capital Reserve paid Mr. Loder a consulting fee of $5,000 per month in exchange for his services, plus reimbursement of reasonable expenses. During 1999 but prior to his death in October 1999, Mr. Loder was paid $61,200 for consulting fees (of which $11,200 was advanced prior to being earned and was written-off by Capital Reserve as a result of Mr. Loder's passing). Mr. Loder was also reimbursed $11,628.70 for entertainment expenses, miscellaneous items and other administrative costs.

OPTIONS

On February 3, 1999, Capital Reserve issued stock options to Ralph W. Newton and Patricia L. Newton to acquire up to 200,000 shares of Capital Reserve's common stock at a price of $0.25 per share on or before February 3, 2001. The options included standard anti-dilution rights which would cause the purchase price to be reduced as a result of Capital Reserve selling shares of common stock at a price lower than the purchase price of the shares issuable upon exercise of the options. Patricia L. Newton is the wife of Ralph W. Newton. The options were issued in connection with the Stock Purchase Agreement between the Newtons and Glen C. Loder, the President and CEO of Capital Reserve. See "CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS." The value of the options has not been included in the Executive Compensation Table, above, because there was no established value for the shares of common stock in 1999 since Capital Reserve's shares did not recommence trading on OTC/BB until February 4, 2000. Therefore, the value of the options is unknown as compensation for the fiscal year ended 1999. During the quarter ended December 31, 2000, Capital Reserve re-negotiated the terms of this option agreement. It was unclear from the original option agreement the effect of the anti-dilution provision. In exchange for a reduction of the exercise price to $0.13 per share, the parties agreed to the cancellation of 100,000 of the 200,000 options. The Newtons immediately exercised their right to purchase the remaining 100,000 options and paid Capital Reserve $13,000 for this exercise. The issuance of the 100,000 shares was approved on December 22, 2000.

STOCK OPTION AND STOCK AWARD PLANS

Capital Reserve adopted an Stock Option and Stock Award Plan, which permitted the Board of Directors or a committee of directors to grant stock options or stock awards for a total of 500,000 shares to employees and consultants who provide bonafide services to Capital Reserve of Capital Reserve.

On March 23, 2000, stock awards totaling 500,000 shares were granted under the Plan. Mr. Lawler received 57,792 of such shares as payment for legal fees earned in fiscal year 1999 and 15,000 shares as compensation for serving as a director.

At Capital Reserve's Annual Shareholders Meeting held on March 21, 2001, the shareholders approved a new stock option plan under which Capital Reserve can issue shares to its employees, officers, directors and consultants at terms to be set by the Board.

ITEM 11. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table sets forth information, as of March 31, 2001, with respect to the beneficial ownership of Capital Reserve's common stock by each person known by Capital Reserve to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding common stock, by each of Capital Reserve's officers and directors, and by the officers and directors of Capital Reserve as a group. Capital Reserve converted all 250,000 outstanding shares of its Class B Preferred Stock in the last quarter of 1999 in accordance with the election of the holders of a majority of such shares. The holders of shares of Class B Preferred Stock received a total of 200,000 shares of Class A Common Stock for their 250,000 preferred shares of Class B or a conversion of .8 to 1.

CHANGES OF CONTROL

Management is in the process of seeking a viable project or a company with which to complete an acquisition or a merger. Until a project or suitable company can be identified, Capital Reserve has only limited sources of income. There is no guaranty that management will be able to locate any such project or company. If Capital Reserve is able to find a suitable project or acquisition candidate, any such project or acquisition will most likely result in Capital Reserve having to issue a substantial amount of stock to consummate the transaction.

ITEM 12. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

As of April 24, 2000, Capital Reserve entered into a Consulting Agreement with its President and a member of its Board of Directors, Mr. W. Scott Lawler, pursuant to which Mr. Lawler agreed to relocate to Calgary, Alberta, Canada, to work at Capital Reserve's facilities in Calgary and devote more substantial time to the operations of Capital Reserve. The term of the Consulting Agreement is 2 years, with an option on Mr. Lawler's part to extend for 1 additional year. Mr. Lawler will receive an annual salary of $75,000.00, plus stock options (at terms yet to be determined) and automatic annual salary increases of 15%. As a further inducement to Mr. Lawler to move to Calgary on Capital Reserve's behalf, Capital Reserve purchased a home for Mr. Lawler's personal use.

The purchase price of the home was $541,241. Capital Reserve assumed a variable interest rate mortgage from Alberta Treasury Branch in the amount of $384,554 amortized over 25 years. On May 1, 2005, the loan can either be repaid or renewed with the interest rate converted to the then prevailing rate. The monthly payments of principal and interest are $2,636, which Mr. Lawler is obligated to make, along with all payments for property taxes, property insurance and maintenance. Title to such property is in the name of Capital Reserve. Mr. Lawler provided funds to Capital Reserve in the amount of $167,842 to pay for the down payment and all closing costs associated with the purchase. The funds were provided in the form of a subscription for shares of Capital Reserve's common stock at the purchase price of $1.00 per share. The shares were issued pursuant to the exemption from registration found in Rule 506 promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933. The net proceeds to Capital Reserve realized from this offering was $167,842, as this offering was made without the use of any agent or salesman and was conducted without any costs, commissions or finders' fees.

If and when the property is sold, Capital Reserve will receive any and all gains (and/or losses) from such sale, less the cost of any pre-approved improvements to the property paid for by Mr. Lawler. However, Mr. Lawler has the option of acquiring title to the property (and thus all resulting gains or losses) by: (a) assuming or paying off Capital Reserve's mortgage; and (b) surrendering to Capital Reserve the 167,842 shares of common stock obtained from Capital Reserve in a private placement.

447017 B.C. Ltd., a private British Columbia corporation, earns a monthly consulting fee of $2,500 from Capital Reserve Canada Limited. Mr. James F. Marsh, President of Capital Reserve Canada Limited, is the beneficial owner of 447017 B.C. Ltd.
