Our Oil and Gas Activities
The Company is engaged in the pursuit of petroleum and natural gas through exploration and development in India, Israel and Colombia.  Since inception, our efforts have primarily been devoted to the pursuit of PSCs with GSPC, OIL and the Government of India.  At December 31, 2010, we have not yet achieved our planned principal operations and are considered to be a development stage enterprise.  We initiated these activities in 2003.  The recoverability of the costs we have incurred to date is uncertain and dependent upon achieving commercial production and sale of hydrocarbons, our ability to obtain sufficient financing to fulfill our obligations under the production sharing or other contracts we are a party to with respect to oil and natural gas exploration and development activities in India, Israel and Colombia and upon future profitable operations.  At present, our activities are being undertaken in four geological basins located offshore and onshore in India, one geological basin located offshore in Israel and one geological basin located onshore in Colombia where reserves of oil or natural gas are believed by our management to exist.

Our Production Sharing Contracts in India
Our Krishna Godavari Basin Agreements
KG Offshore Block PSC
Completion of Minimum Work Program
We, together with our joint venture partners GSPC and Jubilant Offshore Drilling Pvt. Ltd., are parties to a PSC dated February 4, 2003 which grants to the three parties the right to conduct exploratory drilling activities in the offshore waters of the Krishna Godavari Basin.  The PSC covers an area of approximately 1,850 square kilometers (457,145 acres) and was awarded under the third NELP round.  We have a net 5% carried interest in this exploration block.  Under the original terms, this PSC was for a term of up to 6.5 years commencing March 12, 2003 with three exploration phases and a prescribed minimum work program.  In June 2007, the Government of India issued two new policy guidelines which, among other things, permitted the substitution of additional meterage drilled in deeper wells against the total meterage of the wells committed as part of the minimum work program.  GSPC, on behalf of the contracting parties, exercised these rights.  By September 30, 2008, the consortium completed the minimum work program for all Phases on this block under the terms of the PSC as entered into.
 
Declaration of Commerciality
The PSC sets forth procedures whereby the operator can obtain the review of the Management Committee under the PSC as to whether a discovery on the exploration block should be declared a Commercial Discovery under the PSC.  GSPC, as operator on behalf of the consortium submitted to the Management Committee approval, the proposal for a Declaration of Commerciality on the KG#8 and KG#15 discoveries (referred to as the Deen Dayal West Structure) under the terms of the PSC.

Field Development Plan Approval
With the completion of a review by the Management Committee of a proposal for Declaration of Commerciality of the Deen Dayal West Structure, on June 18, 2009, GSPC submitted the Deen Dayal West field development plan in accordance with the provisions of the PSC to the Management Committee for approval.  On November 11, 2009, the Field Development Plan was approved as follows:
·  
Includes fifteen wells; four existing wells (KG#8, KG#15, KG#17 and KG#28) and eleven new development wells including three slant wells and eight multilateral wells to be drilled.
·  
Production facilities to include:
o  
Two offshore platforms (one well head and one central processing);
o  
20 kilometer long pipeline of 24 inch diameter up to landfall point; and
o  
One onshore gas terminal to include a gas sweetening unit, gas dehydration unit, dew point depression unit, condensate stabilization unit, sulphur recovery unit and a captive power unit.
·  
Delivery point for gas will be the outlet flange of a delivery facility located at the onshore terminal at Mallavaram Village, near Yanam, Kakinada in Andhra Pradesh.
·  
First gas production to commence December 2011 (subsequent to approval, amended to April 2013 or later).
·  
GSPC as operator will apply for a 17 square kilometer mineral lease to cover this area.
 
GSPC estimated in the Field Development Plan that on a preliminary basis the gross costs for the production facilities will be approximately US$941 million and US$860 million for future development drilling costs.
 
Carried Interest Agreement
On August 27, 2002 we entered into a Carried Interest Agreement with GSPC granting us a 10% carried interest in the KG Offshore Block.  The Carried Interest Agreement provides that GSPC is responsible for our entire share of any and all costs incurred during the Exploration Phase prior to the date of initial commercial production.
 
 
Under the terms of the Carried Interest Agreement, all of our proportionate share of capital costs for exploration and development activities, including the share of Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc., a related party (see “Item 1 – Business – Our Production Sharing Contracts in India – Our Krishna Godavari Basin Agreements – KG Offshore Block PSC - Participating Interest Agreement”), will be recovered by GSPC without interest over the projected production life or ten years, whichever is less, from oil and natural gas produced on the exploration block.  We are not entitled to any share of production until GSPC has recovered our share of the costs and expenses that were paid by GSPC on behalf of us and Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.
 
Our net 5% carried interest in the KG Offshore Block reflects our agreement to prospectively assign half of the original 10% interest under the PSC to Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc. pursuant to a Participating Interest Agreement we entered into on March 27, 2003, which assignment is subject to Government of India consent which has not yet been approved.  Absent such consent, the assignment will not occur and we are to provide Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc. with an economic benefit equivalent to the interest to be assigned.  At March 30, 2011, we have not obtained the consent of the Government of India to this assignment.
 
Carried Interest Agreement Dispute
GSPC has advised us that it is seeking from us payment of our pro rata portion of the amount by which the sums expended by GSPC under all phases for the minimum work program as set forth in the PSC for the KG Offshore Block in carrying out exploration activities on the block exceeds the amount that GSPC deems to be our pro rata portion of a financial commitment under all phases included in the parties’ joint bid for the award of the KG Offshore Block by the Government of India.
 
GSPC contends that this excess amount is not within the terms of the Carried Interest Agreement and that we are required to pay 10% of the exploration expenses over and above gross costs of $109.7 million (10% being $10.97 million) (including the net 5% interest of Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.) plus interest.
 
GSPC advised us on November 5, 2008 that the minimum work program for the KG Offshore Block had been completed in September 2008.  Further, GSPC elected to undertake an additional work program over and above the minimum work program as either Joint Operations or as Exclusive Operations under the terms of the PSC and advised us that we must elect whether to participate in these additional exploration activities as a Joint Operation or alternatively, GSPC would conduct these drilling activities as Exclusive Operations, as defined in the PSC.
 
On November 13, 2008 we advised GSPC that we exercised our right to participate in the drilling operations proposed in the November 5, 2008 GSPC letter as a Joint Operation under the terms of the PSC and Joint Operating Agreement and pursuant to the terms of our Carried Interest Agreement with GSPC.  As such, we claim that we are carried for 100% of our entire share of any and all costs during the additional exploration phase prior to the start of initial commercial production and that the Carried Interest Agreement extends through the exploration period of the PSC.
 
In August 2010 GSPC advised us that it is of the view that the technical and other advice provided by us in the preparation of the parties’ original bid document submitted to the Government of India in 2002 under NELP-III has proven to be incorrect causing GSPC’s costs in the project to exceed its estimate.  GSPC asserts that by reason of the foregoing the Carried Interest Agreement between the parties is void and consequently the PSC to which the Government of India is party and the Joint Operating Agreement are also void.
 

 
Page 5


We have advised GSPC that under the terms of the Carried Interest Agreement (the terms of which are also incorporated into the PSC and the Joint Operating Agreement), it has no right to such payment under the Carried Interest Agreement.  We have advised GSPC that we have fulfilled our obligations under the Carried Interest Agreement to provide extensive technical assistance without any further remuneration other than the carried interest, all in accordance with the terms of the Carried Interest Agreement.  In furtherance of our position, we have obtained the opinion of prominent Indian legal counsel who has advised us that, among other things, under the terms of the agreements between the parties, and in particular the Carried Interest Agreement, we are not liable to pay any amount to GSPC for either costs and expenses incurred or otherwise before reaching the stage of commercial production.
 
We dispute these positions of GSPC and the conclusions reached by GSPC and continue to state that we hold a gross 10% interest in the KG Offshore Block (including the 5% interest of Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.).  In a KG Offshore Block Management Committee meeting held in October, 2010, the Management Committee (of which the Government of India is a member) advised GSPC to resolve these issues with us at the earliest and requested GSPC to maintain status quo until the issues are resolved.
 
Based upon the audited accounts of the joint venture for the KG Offshore Block the total costs incurred to March 31, 2010 amounted to $1.447 billion (10% being $144.7 million of which 50% is for the account of Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.).  Further, based upon the budget for the fiscal year April 1, 2010 to March 31, 2011, total costs projected were $601 million with approximately $446 million spent by December 31, 2010 (10% being $60.1 million and $44.6 million respectively).  Therefore, we estimate that the amount of GSPC’s claim as of December 31, 2010 to be approximately $189 million plus interest of which 50% is for the account of Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.  We dispute this assertion of GSPC.
 
We intend to vigorously protect our contractual rights in accordance with the dispute resolution process under the Carried Interest Agreement, the PSC and the Joint Operating Agreement as may be appropriate.  In September 2007, we commenced discussions with GSPC in an effort to reach an amicable resolution.  A number of draft settlement proposals have been put forward by us to GSPC seeking to settle this dispute amicably.  Subsequent to the October 2010 Management Committee meeting we have again met with senior management of GSPC to continue our effort to reach an amicable resolution.  However, no settlement agreement has been reached as of March 30, 2011 and there can be no assurance that this matter will be settled amicably.
 
Participating Interest Agreement
On March 27, 2003 prior to our acquisition of all of its outstanding capital stock, GeoGlobal Resources (India) Inc. entered into a Participating Interest Agreement with Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.  Pursuant to this agreement, GeoGlobal Resources (India) Inc. assigned and currently holds in trust for Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc. 50% of the benefits and obligations of the PSC covering the KG Offshore Block and the Carried Interest Agreement.  GeoGlobal Resources (India) Inc. effectively retains a net 5% participating interest in the KG Offshore Block and a net 5% carried interest in the Carried Interest Agreement.  Under the terms of the Participating Interest Agreement, until the Government of India consents to the assignment to Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc., we retain the exclusive right to deal with the other parties to the KG Offshore Block and the Carried Interest Agreement and are entitled to make all decisions regarding the interest assigned to Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.  Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc. has agreed to be bound by and be responsible for the actions taken by, obligations undertaken and costs incurred by us in regard to Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.’s interest and to be liable to us for its share of all costs, interests, liabilities and obligations arising out of or relating to the Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc. interest.  Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc. has agreed to indemnify us against any and all costs, expenses, losses, damages or liabilities incurred by reason of Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.’s failure to pay the same.  Subject to obtaining Government of India consent to the assignment, Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc. is entitled to all income, receipts, credits, reimbursements, monies receivable, rebates and other benefits in respect of its 5% interest which relate to the KG Offshore Block.  We have a right of set-off against sums owing to us by Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.  In the event that the Government of India consent is delayed or denied, resulting in either Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc. or us being denied an economic benefit either would have realized under the Participating Interest Agreement, the parties agreed to amend the agreement or take other reasonable steps to assure that an equitable result is achieved consistent with the parties’ intentions contained in the Participating Interest Agreement.  As a consequence of this transaction we report our holdings under the KG Offshore Block and the Carried Interest Agreement as a net 5% participating interest.  Inasmuch as the assignment of the 5% interest to Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc. occurred prior to our acquisition of GeoGlobal Resources (India) Inc. and we were not a party to that assignment, we received no consideration for the assignment.
 
KG Onshore Block PSC
We, together with our joint venture partner OIL, are parties to a PSC dated March 2, 2007 awarded under NELP-VI.  The PSC covers an area of approximately 549 square kilometers (135,660 acres) onshore in the Krishna Godavari Basin and is located directly adjacent to and south-west of our KG Offshore Block.  The two exploration phases for this PSC are for a term of up to 7.0 years commencing February 18, 2008.  The Phase I covers a period of 4.0 years of which the minimum work program consists of reprocessing 564 line kilometers of 2D seismic data, conducting a gravity and magnetic and geochemical survey, as well as a seismic acquisition program consisting of 548 square kilometers of 3D seismic data.  This Phase I minimum work program further consists of drilling twelve exploration wells to various depths between 2,000 and 5,000 meters.  If the parties elect to enter Phase II which covers a period of 3.0 years, a minimum work program applies to drill one exploration well to a depth of 4,600 meters.
 

 
Page 6


We currently hold a 10% participating interest in this exploration block, while OIL, as operator, holds the remaining 90% participating interest   On June 29, 2010 we agreed with OIL to increase our participating interest on the KG Onshore Block to 20%, such increase being subject to Government of India approval.  Upon such approval we will hold a 20% participating interest in the KG Onshore Block and will become responsible to pay our 20% share of the costs of exploration activities on the block.
 
Our Cambay Basin Agreements
Tarapur Block Agreement
Pursuant to an agreement entered into with GSPC in April, 2005 we purchased a 20% participating interest in the onshore Tarapur Block in the Cambay Basin.  GSPC as operator owns the remaining 80% participating interest. 
 
ONGC has the right under the PSC to participate in the development of any commercial discovery on the Tarapur Block by acquiring a 30% participating interest exercisable under the PSC which expired on November 22, 2007.  ONGC exercised this right with respect to a western portion of the Block referred to as the Tarapur 1 Discovery Area.  The effect of the ONGC exercise is a reduction in the participating interests of GSPC and us in the Tarapur 1 Discovery Area to 56% and 14% respectively.
 
As to the remaining areas of the Tarapur Block, based on current negotiations between GSPC and ONGC, we expect that the latter will be granted a right to a 10% participation in all future wells drilled on the remaining areas of the Tarapur Block during extensions of the exploration period of the PSC.  This would result in the reduction of the participating interests of GSPC and us on these remaining areas to 62% and 18% respectively.
 
After our relinquishment of 25% (approximately 407 square kilometers) of the exploration block to the Government of India, the block now includes approximately 1,213 square kilometers.  At the expiration of the exploration period of the PSC on November 22, 2007, GSPC submitted an application to the Government of India for an extension of the PSC for an additional twelve months to November 22, 2008 which was granted.  During this extension period, the consortium drilled an additional eleven exploratory wells. 
 
GSPC as operator submitted a further application on February 19, 2009 for an additional extension of the exploration phase for eighteen months to May 22, 2010.  On November 11, 2010, GSPC as operator submitted a further application for this additional eighteen month extension of the exploratory phase.  This additional extension was submitted to enable a further exploration program of drilling five exploratory wells and the acquisition of 330 square kilometers of 3D seismic in a section of the block to the east of the Tarapur 1 Discovery Area which we refer to as Tarapur East.  Approval from the Government of India for this additional extension is pending.

Certain Terms of Our PSCs
General
Except for the size and location of the exploration blocks and the work programs to be conducted, the PSCs contain substantially similar terms.  Under the PSCs, the Government of India has granted to the parties the right to engage in oil and natural gas exploration activities on the exploration blocks for specified terms of years with each contract setting forth the exploration activities to be conducted over periods of years in two or three phases.
 
The contracts contain restrictions on the assignment of a participating interest without the consent of the Government of India, including on a change in control of a party, subject to certain exceptions which include, among others, a party encumbering its interest subject to certain limitations.
 
Each of the joint ventures is managed by a Management Committee representing the parties to the agreement, including the Government of India.  The contracts contain various other provisions, including, among other things, obligations of the parties to maintain insurance, maintain the books and records, confidentiality, the protection of the environment, arbitration of disputes, matters relating to income taxes, royalty payments, and the valuation of hydrocarbons produced.  The Indian domestic market has the first call on natural gas produced.  These contracts are interpreted under the laws of India.
 
Relinquishment on our Blocks Prior to NELP-VI Blocks
Under each of these contracts, if the parties elect to continue into the second exploratory phase, the parties retain up to 75% of the original contract area, including any developed areas and areas of discoveries of hydrocarbons, and must relinquish the remainder.  Similarly, if the parties elect to continue into the third exploration phase, the contracts provide that the parties retain up to 50% of the original contract area, including any developed areas and areas of discovery of hydrocarbons, and must relinquish the remainder.  At the end of the final exploration phase, only developed areas and areas of discoveries are to be retained.
 
Relinquishment on our NELP-VI Blocks
Under each of these contracts, if the parties elect to continue into the second exploratory phase, the contracts provide that the parties have the option to relinquish a part of area in simple geometrical shape not less than 25% of the original contract area.  At the end of the second exploration phase, the parties retain the balance which includes any developed areas and areas of discoveries.
 
Procedure for Allocation of Costs After a Discovery
The PSCs contain procedures to be followed once a discovery of hydrocarbons is determined to have been made within the exploration block and for the further development of that discovery.  Following the completion of a development plan for a discovery, the parties are to apply to the relevant government entity for a lease with respect to the area to be developed with an initial term of 20 years.  The Government of India and the other parties to the PSC are allocated the percentages of any remaining production, after deduction of the costs of exploration, development, and production to be recovered.  The percentages allocated to the Government of India are between 20% to 40% of the production from the KG Offshore Block and Ankleshwar Block, 30% to 55% of the production from the Mehsana Block and Sanand/Miroli Block and 10% to 30% of the production from the DS 03 Block.  The newly awarded blocks under NELP-VI are allocated between 91% to 9% of the production from the KG Onshore Block, the RJ Block 20 and RJ Block 21 and between 85% to 15% for the DS 04 Block.  This percentage split is based upon pre-determined production levels with the balance of the production to be allocated to the other joint venture participants in proportion to their participating interests.
 
Bank Guarantees
The PSCs contain provisions whereby the joint venture participants must provide the Government of India a bank guarantee in the amount of 35% of the participant’s share of the minimum work program for a particular Phase to be undertaken during the year.  The work program is presented annually to the Management Committee for approval for the period April 1 through March 31.  The work programs for the year April 1, 2011 through March 31, 2012 and their related budgets have yet to be approved for our existing PSCs to which we are a party.  Accordingly, our estimates as to capital expenditures for these budgeted years as well as the year ending December 31, 2011 and beyond are subject to revision when the budgets are approved.

GSPC is currently in the process of commissioning an offshore platform and jack-up drilling rig to commence the drilling of the new development wells.
 
KG Onshore Activities
During the first half of 2010, OIL as operator of the KG Onshore Block commenced a 3D seismic acquisition program. The acquisition program is planned to acquire approximately 400 square kilometers of data out of an area of approximately 548 square kilometers as a result of seismic acquisition restrictions in the reserve forest. As at December 31, 2010 approximately 141.4 square kilometers of 3D seismic data had been acquired. It is anticipated that the seismic acquisition and part of the processing will be completed on or before September 30, 2011.
 
Three priority locations as proposed have been reviewed and agreed to by the Operating Committee.  All of these locations have multiple prospects in both the shallower (Eocene – Miocene) and deeper (Cretaceous – Jurassic) zones.
 
In February 2011, a contract was awarded to RPS Energy, Canada (RPS) to provide the well engineering and wellsite supervision work associated with the planned drilling campaign on the KG Onshore Block in an effort to commence drilling 12 exploration wells to various depths between 2,000-5,000 meters before the end of 2011.
 
Our Cambay Basin Exploration Activities
Tarapur Block
Tarapur 1 Discovery Area
Currently there is an approved field development plan which covers an area of approximately 2.14 square kilometers within the Tarapur 1 Discovery Area of approximately 9.7 square kilometers, and includes three existing discovery wells (Tarapur 1, Tarapur P and Tarapur 5) and three development wells (TD-1, TD-2 and TD-3).
 
All six wells are tied into the oil tank storage facilities by way of a gathering system and are on production.  Throughout 2009, associated natural gas was being produced and flared off. GSPC as operator built a small gas line in order to collect and sell this gas. Effective January 2010, this associated natural gas is being sold into the local market.
 
 
There are ten additional wells in the Tarapur 1 Discovery Area which are drilled, tested and awaiting tie-in to the oil tank storage facilities. Further, there is one gas well (Tarapur G), whose declaration of commerciality has been reviewed and declared as a commercial discovery.  Production from Tarapur G will commence upon approval of a field development plan. GSPC is currently in the process of preparing and filing the necessary declarations of commerciality and/or field development plans pursuant to the provisions of the PSC to bring these additional discoveries onto production.

Sanand/Miroli Block
In an Operating Committee Meeting held in December 2010, it was agreed that the consortium would apply for a Petroleum Mining Lease to cover three geometrical shapes surrounding the discoveries SE-8 (11.2 square kilometers), SE-4 cluster (18.2 square kilometers) and M1M6 (10.4 square kilometers).  GSPC is currently in the process of preparing and filing the necessary declarations of commerciality and field development plans pursuant to the provisions of the PSC in order to put these wells on production.
 
Ankleshwar Block
During 2010, GSPC as operator drilled the remaining three exploratory wells (ANK-39S, ANK-40S and ANK-41S) to complete the Phase I Minimum Work commitment.  The consortium elected not to proceed to Phase II but rather develop the existing discoveries.
 
Pursuant to the Operating Committee Resolution of December 7, 2010, the consortium elected to retain a 172 square kilometer area around the two discoveries ANK-21 and ANK-40S.  Recently, a gas discovery (ANK-21S) has been notified within this 172 square kilometer area.  GSPC is currently in the process of preparing and filing the necessary declarations of commerciality and field development plans pursuant to the provisions of the PSC in order to put these wells on production.
 
Mehsana Block
On February 8, 2010 the Directorate General of Hydrocarbons approved the extension of the Phase I minimum work program to July 13, 2010.  This extension allowed the consortium time to complete a four well testing and stimulation program in order to complete the appraisal of the block, the results of which are not yet known.  After completion of the test results, all areas not defined as a Commercial Discovery will be relinquished under the terms of the PSC.  The consortium has elected not to proceed to Phase II of the work program.

Our Colombia Exploration Activities
PUT 6 and PUT 7
On September 14, 2010 we entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with Petro Caribbean Resources Ltd. relating to oil and natural gas exploration and development activities in Colombia, subject to execution by Petro Caribbean Resources Ltd. of definitive agreements with the Colombian National Agency of Hydrocarbons.  Subject to the execution of a Joint Operating Agreement, we will be carried for a 10% participating interest in both the PUT 6 and PUT 7 licenses through the minimum and additional work programs as bid in return for us providing to Petro Caribbean Resources Ltd. technical assistance through the exploration phase.  No significant exploration activities were carried out on these licenses in 2010.
 
Our 2011 Anticipated Oil and Gas Activities
We expect our exploration and development activities pursuant to our PSCs in India will continue through 2011 in accordance with the terms of those agreements.  During 2011 and up to March 31, 2012, based on current budgets, we anticipate drilling seven exploratory wells; two core wells; acquiring, processing and interpreting 2,480 line kilometers of  2D seismic data ; and acquiring, processing and interpreting 350 square kilometers of 3D seismic data as well as processing and interpreting an additional 400 square kilometers of 3D seismic data.  We further expect to tie-in additional oil wells in Tarapur along with the construction of a gas pipeline for the Tarapur G gas discovery and to continue with the construction of the gas gathering and production facilities together with further development drilling on the KG Offshore Block in which we have a carried interest.  Additional expenditures may be incurred in connection with additional exploratory, appraisal and development wells we may participate in.  If the Government of India approves the increase to our participating interest in the KG Onshore Block to 20%, our obligations to fund the 3D seismic acquisition and the exploratory drilling on the block will increase.
 
We expect our exploration activities pursuant to our other licenses in Israel will continue through 2011 in accordance with the terms of those agreements.  During 2011, we expect to complete the acquisition, processing and interpretation of 43 square kilometers of 3D seismic data in our Samuel license as well as complete the processing and interpretation of 1, 360 square kilometers of 3D seismic data covering our Sara and Myra licenses and also commence drilling our first deepwater exploration well before the end of the year.
 
We may during 2011 seek to participate in joint ventures bidding for the acquisition of oil and gas interests in India and other countries.  As of March 30, 2011 we have no specific plans regarding such activities and have not entered into any binding agreements with respect to such activities.  We expect that our interest in any such ventures would involve a minority participating interest in the venture.  In addition, although there are no present plans to do so, as opportunities arise we may seek to acquire minority participating interests in exploration blocks where PSCs have been heretofore awarded.  The acquisition of any such interests would be subject to the execution of a definitive agreement and obtaining requisite government consents and other approvals.
 
As of March 30, 2011, the scope of any possible such activities has not been definitively established and accordingly we are unable to state the amount of any funds that will be required for these purposes. As a result, no specific plans or arrangements have been made to raise additional capital and we have not entered into any agreements in that regard. We expect that when we seek to raise additional capital it will be through the sale of equity securities, debt or other financing arrangements.  We are unable to estimate the terms on which such capital will be raised, the price per share or possible number of shares involved or the terms of any agreements to raise capital under other arrangements.
 
During the first quarter of 2010, we hired a new Senior Executive.  We do not expect to have any further significant change in 2011 in our number of employees.
 
Reserve Report
As a result of the approval of the Tarapur 1 field development plan by the Management Committee in April 2009 and the completion of an independent reserve study dated January 1, 2011 by Chapman Petroleum Engineering Ltd. of Calgary, Alberta, Canada, we claim reserves in the Tarapur 1 field as at December 31, 2010 as follows:

Proved Reserves
Proved oil and gas reserves are those quantities of oil and gas, which, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically producible from a given date forward from known reservoirs, and under existing economic conditions, operating methods and government regulations prior to the time at which contracts providing the right to operate expire, unless evidence indicates that renewal is reasonably certain, regardless of whether determinable or probabilistic methods are used for the estimates.  The project to extract the hydrocarbons must have commenced or the operator must be reasonably certain that it will commence the project within a reasonable time.
 
Probable Reserves
Probable reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than proved reserves but which, together with proved reserves, are as likely as not to be recovered.

As at December 31, 2010 GSPC incurred costs of approximately $189 million (December 31, 2009 - approximately $150 million) for exploration activities on the KG Offshore Block attributable to us under our Carried Interest Agreement with GSPC (of which 50% is for the account of Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.).  We will not realize cash flow from the KG Offshore Block until such time as the expenditures attributed to us (including those expenditures made for the account of Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.) under the Carried Interest Agreement have been recovered by GSPC from future production revenue.  Under the terms of the Carried Interest Agreement, all of our proportionate share of capital costs for exploration and development activities must be repaid to GSPC without interest over the projected production life or ten years, whichever is less.  However, we are presently involved in a dispute with GSPC:  see “Item 1 - Business - Our Production Sharing Contracts in India – Our Krishna Godavari Basin Agreements - KG Offshore Block PSC - Carried Interest Agreement Dispute”.

Well costs that have been suspended for longer than one year are associated with ten exploration blocks within four geological basins in India.  The exploration phase for a PSC in India generally covers a period of seven to eight years.  The majority of these costs are suspended pending the completion of an economic evaluation including, but not limited to, results of additional appraisal drilling, well test analysis, additional geological and geophysical data and approval of a Field Development Plan pursuant to the related PSC.  Management believes these projects with suspended exploratory drilling costs exhibit the potential for sufficient quantities of hydrocarbons to justify potential development and is actively pursuing efforts to assess whether reserves can be attributed to these geological basins.  If additional information becomes available that raises doubt as to the economic or operational viability of any of these projects, the associated costs will be evaluated at that time.
 
Drilling Activity
During the 2010 drilling program, exploratory drilling activity consisted of seven gross completed wells (twenty in 2009; thirty-four in 2008) and development drilling activity consisted of zero gross completed wells (zero in 2009 and 2008).  The following table sets forth information as to wells completed under the terms of our PSCs in India during the periods indicated.

Acreage
At December 31, 2010 we have an interest in approximately 3,736,165 gross acres (1,635,240 net acres) in both developed and undeveloped acreage covering the production sharing and other contracts we are party to.
 
Contract Interest in Developed Acreage
At December 31, 2010 we hold an interest in one lease within our Tarapur Block consisting of approximately 2.14 square kilometers (529 gross acres and 74 net acres) that is deemed developed or acreage within an approved Field Development Plan assignable to productive wells.  For purposes of the acreage tables as set out below, one square kilometer is converted to approximately 247.105 acres.

Contract Interests in Undeveloped Acreage
 
Under the terms of the ten PSCs in India, the three licenses in Israel and the two licenses in Colombia to which we are a party, we have an interest in approximately 3,735,636 gross acres (1,635,166 net acres) of undeveloped acreage as of December 31, 2010 after reflecting relinquishment of acreage as required under the production sharing and other contracts.  Undeveloped acreage encompasses those leased acres on which wells have not been drilled or completed to a point that would permit the production of economic quantities of oil or gas regardless of whether such acreage contains proved reserves.  Substantial work commitments must be performed pursuant to each of these production sharing or other contracts before we have any leasehold, concession or other interest in such acreage and there can be no assurance that our exploration activities will result in leases being granted.  Failure to fulfill work commitments or the relinquishment of acreage upon the election to proceed to the next phase of exploration could result in the loss of acreage pursuant to the relinquishment provisions of the PSC.  See “Item 1 – Business - Certain Terms of Our PSCs”.  No leases to any of the undeveloped acreage have been granted and there can be no assurance that we will be granted a leasehold or other interest in this acreage in the future.  Under the terms of the production sharing and other contracts, following the completion of a development plan for a discovery the parties are to apply for a lease from the relevant government authority for the area to be developed.

Hedging Activities
At December 31, 2010 we had not entered into any market risk sensitive instruments (as such term is defined in Item 305 of Regulation S-K), relating to our operations.
 
Marketing
Under the terms of our PSCs, until India’s total production of crude oil and condensate meets the Indian national demand, we are required to sell in the Indian domestic market our entitlement to crude oil and condensate.  When and for so long as India attains self-sufficiency in the production of crude oil and condensate, our domestic sale obligation is suspended and we will have the right to export our entitlement.
 
The PSCs provide that the Indian domestic market will have the first call on natural gas produced from the areas that are the subject of the contracts.
 
The PSCs provide that the parties are to agree monthly on a price for crude oil which is intended to be on an import parity basis.  Prices of natural gas are intended to be based on Indian domestic market prices.
 
Our ability to market any production of crude oil and natural gas will be dependent upon the existence and availability of pipelines or other gathering systems, storage facilities and an ability to transport the hydrocarbons to market.  Except for the Tarapur 1 Development Area where there exists a gathering system and oil tank storage facilities, there are yet to be constructed any facilities as mentioned above on our remaining blocks.
 
We are not a party to any agreements providing for the delivery of fixed quantities of hydrocarbons.
 
Competition
We experience competition from others seeking to participate in joint ventures and other arrangements to participate in exploratory drilling ventures.  In addition, the joint ventures in which we participate experience competition from other ventures and persons in seeking from governmental bodies and, possibly others, agreements to grant and enter into production sharing and other contracts.  Management of our company believes that competition in entering into such agreements with governmental bodies is based on the extent and magnitude of exploratory activities that the applicants propose to undertake on the exploration blocks and licenses under consideration as well as the applicants’ available capital and technical ability.
 
Employees
The services of our President and Chief Executive Officer, Paul B. Miller and our Chief Financial Officer, Sunil S. Karkera and our Vice President of Finance, Allan J. Kent are provided pursuant to Employment Agreements.  As such, the services of Messrs. Miller, Karkera and Kent are provided to us in their capacity as employees of GeoGlobal and each devote substantially all of their time to our affairs.
 
In addition to Messrs. Miller, Karkera and Kent, as at December 31, 2010 we employ four full time persons and five consultants in Calgary, Alberta, Canada and seven full time persons and two consultants in Gandhinagar, Gujarat, India.
 
Incorporation and Organization
On August 29, 2003, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of GeoGlobal India, a corporation then wholly-owned by Mr. Jean Paul Roy.  The completion of the acquisition resulted in the issuance and delivery by us of 34,000,000 common shares and delivery of a $2.0 million promissory note to Mr. Roy.  Of such shares, we issued and delivered 14.5 million shares at the closing of the acquisition and 14.5 million shares were released from escrow on August 27, 2004 upon the commencement of a drilling program.  The remaining 5.0 million shares were released from escrow on December 11, 2009 upon confirmation from the GeoGlobal Resources Inc. Board of Directors that the conditions for their release under the terms of the Escrow Agreement had been met.  As a result of this transaction, Mr. Roy held as of the closing of the transaction approximately 69.3% of our issued and outstanding shares.  Mr. Roy was also elected our President and a Director on August 29, 2003.  This transaction is considered an acquisition of GeoGlobal Resources Inc. (the accounting subsidiary and legal parent) by GeoGlobal India (the accounting parent and legal subsidiary) and has been accounted for as a purchase of the net assets of GeoGlobal Resources Inc. by GeoGlobal India.  Accordingly, this transaction represents a recapitalization of GeoGlobal India, the legal subsidiary, effective August 29, 2003.
 
Through late 2001, we were engaged in the creation, operation and maintenance of a World Wide Web-based community, known as Suite101.com, Inc.  At the end of 2001, management at that time determined to redirect activities and by mid 2002, the company was no longer engaged in the former Web-based activities.
 
We are a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware in December 1993.  From December 1998 to January 2004, our corporate name was Suite101.com, Inc.  At a meeting held January 8, 2004 our stockholders approved an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to change our corporate name to GeoGlobal Resources Inc.

Item 1A.                 Risk Factors

An investment in shares of our common stock involves a high degree of risk.  You should consider the following factors in addition to the other information contained in this Annual Report in evaluating our business and current and proposed activities before you purchase any shares of our common stock.  You should also see “Item 1A – Risk Factors - Cautionary Statement for Purposes of the “Safe Harbor” Provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995” regarding risks and uncertainties relating to us and to forward-looking statements in this Annual Report.
 
There can be no assurance that the exploratory drilling to be conducted on the exploration blocks and licenses in which we hold an interest will result in any discovery of reserves of hydrocarbons or that any hydrocarbons that are discovered will be in commercially recoverable quantities.  In addition, the realization of any revenues from commercially recoverable hydrocarbons is dependent upon the ability to deliver, store and market any hydrocarbons that are discovered.
 
Risks Relating to Our Oil and Gas Activities
We Have A History Of Losses And Our Liquidity Position Imposes Risk To Our Operations
To date, we have not achieved our planned principal operations and we are considered to be in the development stage of our operations.  We have incurred negative cash flows from our operations, and at this time all exploration activities and overhead expenses are primarily financed by way of the issue and sale of equity securities with a small portion being financed from oil sales and interest income on our cash balances.  The recoverability of the costs we have incurred to date is uncertain and is dependent upon achieving commercial production or sale.  Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties which are frequently encountered by companies in their early stage of operations, particularly companies in the oil and gas exploration industry.
 
Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining the necessary financing to complete further exploration and development activities and generate profitable operations from oil and natural gas interests in the future.  Our financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2010 have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.  We incurred a net loss of $18.789 million, and used $4.067 million of cash flow in our operating activities and $12.463 million in our investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2010.  As at December 31, 2010 we had an accumulated deficit of $47.559 million.  These matters raise doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
 
We expect to incur substantial expenditures to further our exploration and development programs.  The existing cash balance and any cash flow from operating activities may not be sufficient to satisfy current obligations and meet our exploration and development commitments.  Development activities within our blocks and licenses that are unable to achieve production in the short term may need to be deferred or curtailed.  We are considering various alternatives to remedy any future shortfall in capital.  We may deem it necessary to raise capital through equity markets, debt markets or other financing arrangements, including participation arrangements that may be available.  Because of the early stage of our operations and our absence of any material oil and natural gas reserves and revenues, there can be no assurance this capital will be available and if it is not, we may be forced to substantially curtail or cease exploration expenditures which could lead to our inability to meet all of our commitments.
 
Should the going concern assumption not be appropriate and we are not able to realize our assets and settle our liabilities, commitments and contingencies (as more fully described in our consolidated financial statements) in the normal course of operations, adjustments would be required to our consolidated financial statements to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities, and these adjustments could be significant.  Our consolidated financial statements do not reflect the adjustments or reclassifications of assets and liabilities that would be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.
 
GSPC Is Seeking a Substantial Payment From Us On Account Of GSPC’s Exploration Costs On the KG Offshore Block
GSPC has advised us that it is seeking from us payment of our pro rata portion of the amount by which the sums expended by GSPC under all phases for the minimum work program as set forth in the PSC for the KG Offshore Block in carrying out exploration activities on the block exceeds the amount that GSPC deems to be our pro rata portion of a financial commitment under all phases included in the parties’ joint bid for the award of the KG Offshore Block by the Government of India.
 
GSPC contends that this excess amount is not within the terms of the Carried Interest Agreement and that we are required to pay 10% of the exploration expenses over and above gross costs of $109.7 million (10% being $10.97 million) (including the net 5% interest of Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.) plus interest.
 
For a full description of this matter, see “Item 1 - Business – Our Production Sharing Contracts in India – Our Krishna Godavari Basin Agreements - KG Offshore Block PSC – Carried Interest Agreement Dispute”.
 
We estimate that the amount of GSPC’s claim as of December 31, 2010 to be approximately $189 million plus interest of which 50% is for the account of Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.
 

 
Page 18


We dispute these positions of GSPC and the conclusions reached by GSPC and we intend to vigorously protect our contractual rights in accordance with the dispute resolution process under the Carried Interest Agreement, the PSC and the Joint Operating Agreement as may be appropriate.  However, there can be no assurance that we will not by operation of law or through the dispute resolution process be required to pay GSPC the full amount it alleges to be owed, nor that adequate capital will be available to us to pay any such amounts, with consequent impact on our ability to continue as a going concern.
 
Our Activities Have Only Recently Commenced And We Have a Very Limited Operating History. Our Reserves Of Oil And Gas Are Not Material. We Anticipate Future Losses and There Is No Assurance Of Our Success.
We are in the early stage of developing our operations.  We have a very limited operating history and we have realized very limited revenues from our activities.  We do not have material reserves of oil and gas as at December 31, 2010.
 
Our activities in the oil and natural gas exploration and production industry have primarily involved entering into ten PSCs with the Government of India.  We also have exploration activities in Israel and Colombia however those activities are in the very early stages of development.  Our exploration opportunities are highly speculative and should any of these opportunities not result in the discovery of commercial quantities of oil and gas reserves, our investment in the venture could be lost.  Our current plans are to conduct the exploration and development activities on the areas offshore and onshore in accordance with the terms of the production sharing and other contracts we are a party to.  There can be no assurance that the exploratory drilling to be conducted on the exploration blocks in which we hold an interest will result in any discovery of hydrocarbons or that any hydrocarbons that are discovered will be in commercially recoverable quantities.  Further, the realization of any revenues from commercially recoverable hydrocarbons is substantially dependent upon the ability to deliver, store and market any hydrocarbons discovered.  As of March 30, 2011 there are no or limited facilities for the delivery and storage of hydrocarbons in the areas covered by our PSCs and licenses.
 
As a company engaged in exploratory oil and gas activities we are exposed to a number of special risks including, among others;
·  
We may experience failures to discover oil and gas in commercial quantities;
·  
There are uncertainties as to the costs to be incurred in our exploratory drilling activities, cost overruns are possible and we may encounter mechanical difficulties and failures in completing wells;
·  
There are uncertain costs inherent in drilling into unknown formations, such as over-pressured zones, high temperatures and tools lost in the hole; and
·  
We may make changes in our drilling plans and locations as a result of prior exploratory drilling.
 
There can be no assurance that the ventures in which we are a participant or hold an interest will be successful in addressing these risks, and any failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our prospects for the future.
 
We Expect to Have Substantial Requirements Under the Terms of Our Production Sharing And Other Contracts For Additional Capital That May Be Unavailable To Us Which Could Limit Our Ability To Participate In Our Existing Ventures.  Our Available Capital is Limited
 
In order to participate under the terms of our production sharing or other contracts in future exploration, appraisal or development programs, we will be required to contribute or have available to us material amounts of capital.  Under the terms of our Carried Interest Agreement relating to the KG Offshore Block, after the start date of initial commercial production on the KG Offshore Block, and under the terms of the nine other PSCs we are parties to in India, we are required to bear our proportionate share of costs during the exploration and development phases of those agreements.  Under the terms of the three licenses we are a party to in Israel we are required to bear our proportionate share of costs during the exploration and development phases of those agreements.  There can be no assurance that our currently available capital will be sufficient for these purposes or that any additional capital that is required will be available to us in the amounts and at the times required.  Such capital also may be required to secure bank guarantees in connection with the grant of exploration rights, to conduct or participate in exploration activities or be engaged in drilling, completion and development activities.  We intend to seek additional capital to meet our requirements from equity markets, debt markets or other financing arrangements, including participation arrangements that may be available for continued exploration and development expenditures.  Our ability to access additional capital will depend in part on the success of the ventures in which we are a participant in locating reserves of oil and gas and developing producing wells on the exploration blocks and licenses, the results of our management in locating, negotiating and entering into joint venture or other arrangements on terms considered acceptable, as well as the status of the capital markets at the time such capital is sought.
 
Should we be unable to access the capital markets or should sufficient capital not be available, our activities could be delayed or reduced and, accordingly, any future exploration opportunities, revenues and operating activities may be adversely affected and could also result in our breach of the terms of a production sharing or other contract which could result in the loss of our rights or a portion thereof under the contract.
 

 
Page 19


As of December 31, 2010 we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $7.751 million.  We believe that our available cash resources together with amounts we intend to seek from equity markets, debt markets or other financing arrangements will be sufficient to meet all our expenses and cash requirements during the year ending December 31, 2011 for our present level of operations on the exploration blocks and licenses in which we are currently a participant in.  Although exploration activity budgets are subject to ongoing review and revision, our present estimate of commitments of capital pursuant to the terms of our production sharing contracts relating to our ten exploration blocks in India and our three licenses in Israel totals approximately $13.152 million during the year ending December 31, 2011.  Upon receipt of approval from the Government of India for the increase to a 20% participating interest on the KG Onshore Block, these expenditures will increase by $1.804 million.  Any further production sharing or other contracts we may seek to enter into or any expanded scope of operations or other transactions that we may enter into may require us to fund our participation or capital expenditures with amounts of capital not currently available to us.  We may be unsuccessful in raising the capital necessary to meet these capital requirements.
 
Possible Inability Of Contracting Parties To Fulfill The Minimum Work Programs For Certain Of Our PSCs
Our PSCs relating to our exploration blocks in India provide that by the end of each exploration phase the contracting parties shall have drilled a certain number of wells or performed certain exploration activities.  The PSCs have provisions for termination of the PSCs on account of various reasons specified therein including material breach of the contract.  This failure to timely complete the minimum work program may be deemed to constitute such a breach.  Termination rights can be exercised after giving ninety days written notice.  The termination of a PSC by the Government of India would result in the loss of our interest in the PSC other than contract areas of the PSC determined to encompass Commercial Discoveries.
 
In the event the minimum work program is not fulfilled by the end of the relevant exploration phase, the PSC provides that each party to the PSC is to pay to the Government of India its participating interest share of an amount which is equal to the amount that would be required to complete the minimum work program for that phase.
 
Risks Associated With Our Holding A Carried Interest
Under the terms of our KG Offshore Carried Interest Agreement, we are carried by GSPC for all our share of any costs and expenses during the exploration phase on the KG Offshore Block prior to the start date of initial commercial production.  Under the terms of our Carried Interest Agreement, after deducting all royalties payable, GSPC is entitled to recover all such costs and expenses out of production from wells drilled by GSPC on the block before we are entitled to receive any share of the production.  Accordingly, we will not be entitled to receive any production of hydrocarbons or revenues from wells drilled on the block until such time as GSPC has recovered the costs and expenses GSPC paid during the exploration phase on our behalf.
 
As operator of the KG Offshore Block, GSPC is required to conduct exploration and drilling operations on the block in accordance with generally accepted oil and gas industry standards, subject to the terms of a Joint Operating Agreement, and is entitled to make all decisions and take all actions necessary in fulfilling the minimum work program commitments and future development commitments made relating to the KG Offshore Block.  Through December 31, 2010, GSPC had expended approximately $189 million on our behalf under the terms of the Carried Interest Agreement of which 50% is for the account of Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc. and it is expected that those expenses will increase materially thereafter.  There can be no assurance as to when, if ever, GSPC will recover our share of exploration costs and expenses.  Until such time, we will realize no revenues from our interest in the KG Offshore Block.  Accordingly, our ability to receive revenues from hydrocarbon production from the KG Offshore Block, notwithstanding our carried interest, is dependent upon future production and price realized being sufficient to enable GSPC to recover the costs and expenses it incurs on our behalf.
 
India’s Regulatory Regime May Increase Our Risks And Expenses In Doing Business
All phases of the oil and gas exploration, development and production activities in which we are participating are regulated in varying degrees by the Indian government, either directly or through one or more governmental entities.  The areas of government regulation include matters relating to restrictions on production, price controls, export controls, income taxes, expropriation of property, environmental protection and rig safety.  In addition, the award of a PSC is subject to Government of India consent and matters relating to the implementation and conduct of operations under the PSC are subject, under certain circumstances, to Government of India consent.  As a consequence, all future drilling and production programs and operations we undertake or undertaken by the ventures in which we participate in India must be approved by the Indian government.  Shifts in political conditions in India could adversely affect our business in India and the ability to obtain requisite government approvals in a timely fashion or at all.  We and our joint venture participants must maintain satisfactory working relationships with the Indian government.  This regulatory environment and possible delays inherent in that environment may increase the risks associated with our exploration and production activities and increase our costs of doing business.

We Are Dependent On The Operators Of Our Ventures And Their Failure Or Inability To Operate An Exploration Block
We have contractual rights under terms of ten PSCs with the Government of India.  We are not the operator of eight of these ten exploration blocks.  On the DS 03 Block and the DS 04 Block we hold a 100% interest and are the operator.  The realization of success in the non-operated exploration blocks is substantially dependent upon the success of the operators in exploring for and developing reserves of oil and gas and their ability to market those reserves at prices that will yield a return to us.
 
The minimum work programs required to be conducted by the contracting parties under certain of the PSCs to which we are a party have not been completed by the operators within the time frames required by the PSCs.  This circumstance could lead to the assessment of damages against the contracting parties and the loss of our investments under the PSCs.  We are dependent upon the operators to timely complete these minimum work programs.
 
In addition, we are presently involved in a dispute with the operator of the KG Offshore Block.  For a full description of this matter, see “Item 1 - Business – Our Production Sharing Contracts in India – Our Krishna Godavari Basin Agreements - KG Offshore Block PSC – Carried Interest Dispute”.
 
Certain Terms Of The PSCs May Create Additional Expenses And Risks That Could Adversely Affect Our Revenues And Profitability
The PSCs contain certain terms that may affect the revenues of the joint venture participants to the agreements and create additional risks for us.  These terms include, among others, the following:
 
·  
The venture participants are required to complete certain minimum work programs during the two or three phases of the terms of the PSCs.  In the event the venture participants fail to fulfill any of these minimum work programs, the parties to the venture must pay to the Government of India their proportionate share of the amount that would be required to complete the minimum work program.  Accordingly, we could be called upon to pay our proportionate share of the estimated costs of any incomplete work programs;
 
·  
Until such time as the Government of India attains self sufficiency in the production of crude oil and condensate and is able to meet its national demand, the parties to the venture are required to sell in the Indian domestic market their entitlement under the PSCs to crude oil and condensate produced from the exploration blocks.  In addition, the Indian domestic market has the first call on natural gas produced from the exploration blocks and the discovery and production of natural gas must be made in the context of the government’s policy of utilization of natural gas and take into account the objectives of the government to develop its resources in the most efficient manner and promote conservation measures.  Accordingly, this provision could interfere with our ability to realize the maximum price for our share of production of hydrocarbons;
 
·  
The parties to each agreement that are not Indian companies, which includes us, are required to negotiate technical assistance agreements with the Government of India or its nominee whereby such foreign company can render technical assistance and make available commercially available technical information of a proprietary nature for use in India by the government or its nominee, subject, among other things, to confidentiality restrictions.  Although not intended, this could increase each venture’s and our cost of operations; and
 
·  
The parties to each venture are required to give preference, including the use of tender procedures, to the purchase and use of goods manufactured, produced or supplied in India provided that such goods are available on equal or better terms than imported goods, and to employ Indian subcontractors having the required skills insofar as their services are available on comparable standards and at competitive prices and terms.  Although not intended, this could increase the ventures and our cost of operations.
 
These provisions of the PSCs, among others, may increase our costs of participating in the ventures and thereby affect our profitability.  Failure to fully comply with the terms of the PSCs creates additional risks for us.
 
Our International Operations May Be Adversely Affected By War, Terrorist Acts, Or Civil Disturbances That May Occur In Regions That Encompass Our Operations
We conduct exploration and development activities in Israel.  These areas have historically been less politically stable than other areas in which we conduct business.
 
In recent weeks civil unrest has resulted in changes to the Tunisian and Egyptian governments.  There have been numerous demonstrations and some of the demonstrations have been marked by violence.
 
Civil unrest could continue to spread throughout the region.  Such unrest, if it continues to grow in intensity, could lead to civil war; regime change resulting in governments that are hostile to the US and/or Israel, or other regional conflict.
 

 
Page 21


At this time we are uncertain of the outcome of these events. However, prolonged and/or widespread regional conflict in the Middle East could have the following results, among others:
 
·  
volatility in global crude oil prices which could negatively impact the global economy, resulting in slower economic growth rates, which could reduce demand for our products;
·  
negative impact on the world crude oil supply if transportation avenues are disrupted, leading to further commodity price volatility;
·  
capital market reassessment of risk and subsequent redeployment of capital to more stable areas making it more difficult for partners to obtain financing for potential development projects;
·  
security concerns in Israel, making it more difficult for our personnel or supplies to enter or exit the country;
·  
reduced market demand in Israel for natural gas due to efforts to conserve domestic resources;
·  
security concerns leading to evacuation of our personnel;
·  
damage to or destruction of our wells, production facilities, receiving terminals or other operating assets;
·  
inability of our service and equipment providers to deliver items necessary for us to conduct  our operations in Israel, resulting in delayed start-up of our Samuel or Sara and Myra projects; and
·  
lack of availability of drilling rig, oilfield equipment or services if third party providers decide to exit the region.
 
Loss of property and/or interruption of our business plans resulting from hostile acts could have a significant negative impact on our earnings and cash flow. In addition, we may not have enough insurance to cover any loss of property or other claims resulting from these risks.
 
Our Control By Certain Directors And Executive Officers May Result In Those Persons Having Interests Divergent From Our Other Stockholders
As of March 30, 2011, our Directors and executive officers and their respective affiliates in the aggregate, beneficially hold 32,696,000 shares or approximately 39.5% of our outstanding Common Stock.  As a result, these persons possess significant influence over us, which may give them the ability, among other things, to elect a majority of our Board of Directors and approve significant corporate transactions.  These persons may retain significant control over our present and future activities and our other stockholders and investors may be unable to meaningfully influence the course of our actions.  These persons may have interests regarding future activities and transactions in which we engage which may diverge from the interests of our other stockholders.  Such share ownership and control may also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of us, impeding a merger, consolidation, takeover or other business combination involving us, or discourage a potential acquiror from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us which could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock.  Although management has no intention of engaging in such activities, there is also a risk that the existing management will be viewed as pursuing an agenda which is beneficial to themselves at the expense of other stockholders.
 
Oil And Gas Prices Fluctuate Widely And Low Oil And Gas Prices Could Adversely Affect Our Financial Results
There is no assurance that there will be any market for oil or gas produced from the exploration blocks in which we hold an interest and the ability to deliver production from any wells may be constrained by the absence of or limitations on collector systems and pipelines.  Future price fluctuations could have a major impact on future revenue from any oil and gas produced on these exploration blocks and could materially affect the return from and the financial viability of any reserves claimed.  Historically, oil and gas prices have been volatile, and they are likely to continue to be volatile in the future.  A significant decrease in oil and gas prices could have a material adverse effect on our cash flow and profitability and would adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.  Prices for oil and gas fluctuate in response to relatively minor changes in the supply and demand for oil and gas, market uncertainty and a variety of additional factors beyond our control, including:
 
·  
political conditions and civil unrest in oil producing regions, including the Middle East and elsewhere;
·  
the domestic and foreign supply of oil and gas;
·  
quotas imposed by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries upon its members;
·  
the level of consumer demand;
·  
weather conditions;
·  
domestic and foreign government regulations;
·  
the price and availability of alternative fuels;
·  
overall economic conditions; and
·  
international political conditions.
 

 
Page 22


In addition, various factors may adversely affect the ability to market oil and gas production from our exploration blocks, including:
 
·  
the capacity and availability of oil and gas gathering systems and pipelines;
·  
the ability to produce oil and gas in commercial quantities and to enhance and maintain production from existing wells and wells proposed to be drilled;
·  
the proximity of future hydrocarbon discoveries to oil and gas transmission facilities and processing equipment (as well as the capacity of such facilities);
·  
the effect of governmental regulation of production and transportation (including regulations relating to prices, taxes, royalties, land tenure, allowable production, importing and exporting of oil and condensate and matters associated with the protection of the environment);
·  
the imposition of trade sanctions or embargoes by other countries;
·  
the availability and frequency of delivery vessels;
·  
changes in supply due to drilling by others;
·  
the availability of drilling rigs and qualified personnel; and
·  
changes in demand.
 
Our Future Performance Depends Upon Our Ability And The Ability Of The Ventures In Which We Participate To Find Or Acquire Oil And Gas Reserves That Are Economically Producible
Our success in developing our oil and gas exploration and development activities will be dependent upon establishing, through our participation with others in joint ventures and other similar activities, reserves of oil and gas and maintaining and possibly expanding the levels of those reserves.  We and the joint ventures in which we may participate may not be able to locate and thereafter replace reserves from exploration and development activities at acceptable costs.  Lower prices of oil and gas may further limit the kinds of reserves that can be developed at an acceptable cost.  The business of exploring for, developing or acquiring reserves is capital intensive.  We may not be able to make the necessary capital investment to enter into joint ventures or similar arrangements to maintain or expand our oil and gas reserves if capital is unavailable to us and the ventures in which we participate.  In addition, exploration and development activities involve numerous risks that may result in dry holes, the failure to produce oil and gas in commercial quantities, the inability to fully produce discovered reserves and the inability to enhance production from existing wells.
 
We expect that we will continually seek to identify and evaluate joint venture and other exploration opportunities for our participation as a joint venture participant or through some other arrangement.  Our ability to enter into additional exploration activities will be dependent to a large extent on our ability to negotiate arrangements with others and with various governments and governmental entities whereby we can be granted a participation in such ventures.  There can be no assurance that we will be able to locate and negotiate such arrangements, have sufficient capital to meet the costs involved in entering into such arrangements or that, once entered into, that such exploration activities will be successful.  Successful acquisition of exploration opportunities can be expected to require, among other things, accurate assessments of potential recoverable reserves, future oil and gas prices, projected operating costs, potential environmental and other liabilities and other factors.  Such assessments are necessarily inexact, and as estimates, their accuracy is inherently uncertain.  We cannot assure you that we will successfully consummate any further exploration opportunities or joint venture or other arrangements leading to such opportunities.
 
Estimating Reserves And Future Net Revenues Involves Uncertainties And Oil And Gas Price Declines May Lead To Impairment Of Oil And Gas Assets
We do not claim any material proved or probable reserves of oil or natural gas as at December 31, 2010.  Any reserve information that we may provide in the future will represent estimates based on reports prepared by independent petroleum engineers, as well as internally generated reports.  Petroleum engineering is not an exact science.  Information relating to proved oil and gas reserves is based upon engineering estimates derived after analysis of information we furnish or furnished by the operator of the property.  Estimates of economically recoverable oil and gas reserves and of future net cash flows necessarily depend upon a number of variable factors and assumptions, such as historical production from the area compared with production from other producing areas, the assumed effects of regulations by governmental agencies and assumptions concerning future oil and gas prices, future operating costs, severance and excise taxes, capital expenditures and work-over and remedial costs, all of which may in fact vary considerably from actual results.  Oil and gas prices, which fluctuate over time, may also affect proved reserve estimates.  For these reasons, estimates of the economically recoverable quantities of oil and gas attributable to any particular group of properties, classifications of such reserves based on risk of recovery and estimates of the future net cash flows expected therefrom prepared by different engineers or by the same engineers at different times may vary substantially.  Actual production, revenues and expenditures with respect to reserves we may claim will likely vary from estimates, and such variances may be material.  Inaccuracies in estimates of proved undeveloped reserves or the inability to fund development could result in substantially reduced reserves.  In addition, the timing of receipt of estimated future net revenues from proved undeveloped reserves will be dependent upon the timing and implementation of drilling and development activities estimated by us for purposes of the reserve report.
 

 
Page 23


Quantities of proved reserves are estimated based on economic conditions in existence in the period of assessment.  Lower oil and gas prices may shorten economic lives of certain fields because it becomes uneconomic to produce all recoverable reserves on such fields, thus reducing proved property reserve estimates.  If such revisions in the estimated quantities of proved reserves occur, it will have the effect of increasing the rates of depreciation, depletion and amortization on the affected properties, which would decrease earnings or result in losses through higher depreciation, depletion and amortization expense.  The revisions may also be sufficient to trigger impairment losses on certain properties that would result in a further non-cash charge to earnings.
 
Risks Relating To The Market For Our Common Stock - Volatility Of Our Stock Price
The public market for our common stock has been characterized by significant price and volume fluctuations.  There can be no assurance that the market price of our common stock will not decline below its current or historic price ranges.  The market price may bear no relationship to the prospects, stage of development, existence of oil and gas reserves, revenues, earnings, assets or potential of our company and may not be indicative of our future business performance.  The trading price of our common stock could be subject to wide fluctuations.  Fluctuations in the price of oil and gas and related international political events can be expected to affect the price of our common stock.  In addition, the stock market in general has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have affected the market price for many companies which fluctuations have been unrelated to the operating performance of these companies.  These market fluctuations, as well as general economic, political and market conditions, may have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock.  In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, securities class action litigation has often been instituted against such companies.  Such litigation, if instituted, and irrespective of the outcome of such litigation, could result in substantial costs and a diversion of management’s attention and resources and have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Performance Graph
The following graph compares the performance of our Common Stock over the preceding five-year period.  The following graph is presented as required by SEC rules.  The comparison (change in year-end stock price plus reinvested dividends) assumes that $100 was invested on December 31, 2005 in each of the shares of GeoGlobal Resources Inc., Cubic Energy, Inc., Abraxas Petroleum Corporation and the S&P 500 Index.  It includes the reinvestment of any dividends, although we have never paid any cash dividends.
 
 
(1)
Cubic Energy, Inc. is a NYSE/Amex listed company engaged in development and production in oil and gas in the United States.  This Company falls under the same SIC code of “Drilling of Oil and Gas Wells” as GeoGlobal.  It has a market capitalization of less than $200.0 million and revenues of less than $100.0 million.  Therefore, we deem it to be comparative to our company for these purposes.
(2)
Abraxas Petroleum Corporation is a NASDAQ listed company with operations principally in Texas and the Rocky Mountains and is engaged in exploration, development and production of natural gas and crude oil in Texas and Wyoming.  Although this company has production and reserves, it has a market capitalization of less than $200.0 million and revenues of less than $100.0 million.  Therefore, we also deem it to be comparative to our company for these purposes.
The Performance Graph is not deemed to be “soliciting material” or filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or incorporated by reference in any documents so filed.

General
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by, the more detailed information including our Consolidated Financial Statements and the related Notes appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report.  This Annual Report contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.  Our actual results may differ materially from the results and business plans discussed in the forward-looking statements.  Factors that may cause or contribute to such differences include those discussed in Item 1A. - Risk Factors as well as those discussed elsewhere in this Annual Report.
 
Our Business Activities
We are engaged, through our subsidiaries, in the exploration for and development of oil and natural gas reserves.  At December 31, 2010 we have not yet achieved our planned principal operations and are considered to be a development stage enterprise.  We initiated these activities in 2003.  The recoverability of the costs we have incurred to date is uncertain and dependent upon achieving commercial production and sale of hydrocarbons, our ability to obtain sufficient financing to fulfill our obligations under the production sharing or other contracts we are a party to with respect to oil and natural gas exploration and development activities in India, Israel and Colombia and upon future profitable operations.  At present, our activities are being undertaken in four geological basins located offshore and onshore in India, one geological basin located offshore Israel and one geological basin located onshore in Colombia where reserves of oil or natural gas are believed by our management to exist.
 
The exploration rights pursuant to PSCs we have entered into with the Government of India are located in the following areas:
 
·  
The Krishna Godavari Basin offshore and onshore in the State of Andhra Pradesh in south eastern India;
·  
The Cambay Basin onshore in the State of Gujarat in western India;
·  
The Deccan Syneclise Basin onshore in the State of Maharashtra in west central India; and
·  
The Bikaner-Nagaur Basin onshore in the State of Rajasthan in north western India.
 

 
Page 27


The exploration rights pursuant to licenses we have been granted in Israel are located in the Levantine Basin located off the coast of Israel with the licenses varying in distances between 6 and 25 miles offshore.
 
We have entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with respect to two exploration blocks located in the Putumayo Basin onshore in southwest Colombia.
 
May 2009 saw the commencement of oil revenue from our Tarapur exploration block in the Cambay Basin.  To date however, we have not achieved our planned principal operations and are considered to be in the development stage.  The recoverability of the exploration costs we have incurred to date is uncertain and dependent upon us achieving significant commercial production, our ability to obtain sufficient financing to fulfill our obligations under the PSCs in India and upon future profitable operations.  All of the exploration activities in which we are a participant should be considered highly speculative.
 
Results of Operations for the Years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009
For the year ended December 31, 2010 we incurred a net loss of $18.789 million as compared to a net loss of $4.424 million for the year ended December 31, 2009.  The increase in the net loss is mostly a result of realizing an asset impairment in 2010 of $13.789 million compared with no asset impairment in the year 2009.

Oil sales
All of our oil sales are derived from production in India.  With the approval of the Tarapur 1 field development plan by the Management Committee, three wells began production in mid-May 2009, two in September 2009 and one in January 2010. There are ten additional wells which are drilled, tested and awaiting tie-in to the oil tank storage facilities.  Oil sales for the year ended December 31, 2010 were $0.633 million or $74.48 per barrel compared to oil sales for the year ended December 31, 2009 of $0.662 million or $67.35 per barrel.  Oil sales are currently based on a discount to the spot price based on the Nigeria Bonny Light Crude bench mark.  To date, none of our production has been hedged.
 
Gas sales
In addition to the crude oil production from the six wells in Tarapur, associated natural gas was contained and sold commencing January 2010. Prior thereto, the associated natural gas was flared off.  As a result, total gas sales for the year ended December 31, 2010 was $0.158 million or $8.04 per Mcf as compared to $nil for the year ended December 31, 2009. There is one gas well awaiting approval for the development plan.
 
Interest income
Interest income decreased to $0.053 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to $0.300 million for the same period in 2009.  This decrease is directly related to the decrease in the amount of our invested cash balances.
 
Operating costs
Operating costs for the year ended December 31, 2010 were $0.173 million or $18.92 per barrel, compared to $0.099 million or $9.11 per barrel for the year ended December 31, 2009.  The operating costs include handling and processing charges, transportation costs, utilities, maintenance and tank rental charges and contain a fixed and variable portion.

General and administrative
Our general and administrative expenses increased to $3.193 million from $2.987 million.  These general and administrative expenses include costs related to the corporate head office including administrative salaries and services, directors’ fees, rent and office costs, insurance, bank guarantee fees, NYSE Amex listing and filing fees, investor relation services and transfer agent fees and services.  Also included in our general and administrative expenses are our compensation costs for stock-based compensation arrangements with employees and directors which are being expensed over their respective vesting periods of the related option grants.  The majority of the increase in the general and administrative expenses is a result of an increase in directors’ fees of $0.232 million combined with an increase in salaries and benefits of $0.270 million and travel and hotel of $0.153 million.  These increases are consistent with the restructuring of our management team including the addition of a new executive officer combined with our stepping into new ventures in Israel and Colombia.  These increases were offset by a decrease in stock-based compensation costs from $0.779 million to $0.700 million for the same period in 2009.  Further offsets to the increase were a result of a charge of $0.264 million in 2009 for the warrant modification that was not incurred in the year ending December 31, 2010 as well as a recovery of $0.114 million as a result of an over accrual of estimated interest, penalties and related costs of $0.214 million in regularizing our respective tax and regulatory filings in India.
 
Consulting fees
Our consulting fees decreased to $0.652 million during the year ended December 31, 2010 from $0.823 million in the prior year.  Consulting fees include fees and expenses we incurred in employing various technical and corporate consultants who advised us on a variety of matters.  This change is mostly attributable to the decrease for stock-based compensation with non-employee consultants for the year ended December 31, 2010 being $0.017 million versus $0.140 million for the year ended December 31, 2009.  A portion of this decrease is also a result of consulting fees paid under our Technical Services Agreement which expired in August 2010 with a corporation wholly owned by Mr. Roy, whereby we expensed $0.209 million during the year ended December 31, 2010 versus $0.263 million during the year ended December 31, 2009.  The balance of the decrease is a result of the cancellation in August 2010 of the agreement to pay consulting fees to D.I. Investments Ltd., whereby we expensed $0.134 million during the year ended December 31, 2010 versus $0.213 million for the same period in 2009.
 
Professional fees
Professional fees decreased to $0.828 million during the year ended December 31, 2010 from $1.085 million during the year ended December 31, 2009.  Professional fees include those paid to our auditors for pre-approved audit, accounting and tax services and fees paid to our legal advisors primarily for services provided with regard to filing various periodic reports and other documents and reviewing our various oil and gas and other agreements.  This decrease is mostly a result of professional fees which were paid to various tax advisors to complete a review of our corporate structure with a goal to ensure tax compliance, strategy and efficiency across all jurisdictions in which we operate during incurred in the year ended December 31, 2009 not incurred in 2010.
 
Depletion and depreciation
Depletion and depreciation increased to $0.824 million ($83.72 per barrel) during the year ended December 31, 2010 from $0.353 million ($27.05 per barrel) during the year ended December 31, 2009.  This increase is mostly attributable to the substantial increase in the amortization base for the depletion calculation as a result of the transfer of the abandoned well costs from unproven to proven properties combined with the decrease in the proved reserves based on an updated reserve report dated January 1, 2011 by Chapman Petroleum Engineering Ltd.
 
Impairment of oil and gas properties
During the year 2010, we incurred asset impairment expenses of 13.789 million versus $nil during the year ended December 31, 2009.  In 2010, any impairment to exploration properties is transferred to our full cost pool which is subject to ceiling test limitations.  No impairment was recognized under our ceiling test in 2009.  Our asset impairment in 2010 consisted of $13.789 million as a result of assessing our Indian properties on an individual basis considering various factors, including land relinquishment and the absence of hydrocarbons in certain exploratory wells.  The exploration work programs have been completed on the four Cambay blocks which accounted for the majority of the impairment with the relinquishment of all lands where there is not a discovery, as well as the abandonment of twenty two wells in the fourth quarter of 2010. Further there was one well abandoned in one of the Rajasthan blocks.  Since the result of this assessment indicated impairment, the related costs incurred were charged to the statement of operations.
 
Capitalized overhead on oil and gas properties
We capitalize overhead costs directly related to our exploration activities in India.  During the year ended December 31, 2010, these capitalized overhead costs amounted to $0.599 million as compared to $1.098 million during the year ended December 31, 2009.  The decrease is mostly attributable to a decrease in the capitalized portion of stock-based compensation for our non-employee consultants directly related in our oil and gas exploration activities for the year ended December 31, 2010 of $0.252 million versus $0.662 million for the year ended December 31, 2009.  The treatment of capitalized overhead costs remained consistent with the prior year and includes costs relating to personnel, consultants, their travel, necessary resources and stock-based compensation directly associated with the advancement of our oil and gas interests.

Results of Operations for the Years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008
For the year ended December 31, 2009, we incurred a net loss of $4.424 million as compared to a net loss of $13.314 million for the year ended December 31, 2008.  The decrease in net loss was mostly attributable to realizing an asset impairment in 2008 of $10.098 million compared with no asset impairment in the year 2009.  This decrease was offset by an increase in our general and administrative expenses and consulting fees combined with a decline in our interest income.
 
Oil sales
All of our oil sales are derived from production of crude oil in India.  With the approval of the Tarapur 1 field development plan by the Management Committee, three wells began production in mid-May 2009 and two in September 2009.  There are twelve additional wells which are drilled, tested and awaiting tie-in to the oil tank storage facilities.  Oil sales for the year ended December 31, 2009 were $0.662 million or $67.35 per barrel.  Oil sales are currently based on the spot price based on the Nigeria Bonny Light Crude bench mark.  To date, none of our production has been hedged.  In addition to the crude oil production, a minimal amount of associated natural gas was produced and flared off.  Commencing with the first quarter in 2010, the associated natural gas has been contained and sold.  We did not generate any oil sales during the year ended December 31, 2008.
 
Interest income
Interest income decreased to $0.300 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 as compared to $1.148 million for the same period in 2008.  This decrease was directly related to the decrease in US prime interest rate in 2009 as compared to 2008 as well a decrease in the amount of our invested cash balances.
 
Operating costs
Operating costs for the year ended December 31, 2009 were $0.099 million or $9.11 per barrel, as a result of our first production in the Tarapur 1 field which commenced in May 2009.  The operating costs include handling and processing charges, transportation costs, utilities, maintenance and tank rental charges and contain a fixed and variable portion.  We did not incur any operating costs during the year ended December 31, 2008.
 
General and administrative
Our general and administrative expenses increased to $2.987 million from $2.343 million.  These general and administrative expenses include costs related to the corporate head office including administrative salaries and services, directors’ fees, rent and office costs, insurance, bank guarantee fees, NYSE Amex listing and filing fees, investor relation services and transfer agent fees and services.  Also included in our general and administrative expenses are our compensation costs for stock-based compensation arrangements with employees and directors which were being expensed over their respective vesting periods of the related option grants.  These stock-based compensation costs increased to $0.779 million from $0.675 million for the same period in 2008.  The remaining majority of the increase in the general and administrative expenses was a result of an increase in directors’ fees of $0.145 million and interest, penalties and related costs of $0.214 million in regularizing our respective tax and regulatory filings in our various countries of operations
 
Consulting fees
Our consulting fees increased to $0.823 million during the year ended December 31, 2009 from $0.742 million in the prior year.  This change was mostly attributable to the increase for stock-based compensation with non-employee consultants for the year ended December 31, 2009 being $0.140 million versus a reversal of $0.048 million for the year ended December 31, 2008.  A portion of this increase was also a result of the accounting for the consulting fees paid under our Technical Services Agreement with a corporation wholly owned by Mr. Roy, whereby we expensed $0.263 million during the year ended December 31, 2009 versus $0.175 million during the year ended December 31, 2008.  The balance of the increase was a result of other fees and expenses we incurred in employing various technical and corporate consultants who advised us on a variety of matters.
 
Professional fees
Professional fees decreased slightly to $1.085 million during the year ended December 31, 2009 from $1.089 million during the year ended December 31, 2008.  Professional fees included those paid to our auditors for pre-approved audit, accounting and tax services and fees paid to our legal advisors primarily for services provided with regard to filing various periodic reports and other documents and reviewing our various oil and gas and other agreements.
 
Depletion and depreciation
Depletion and depreciation increased to $0.353 million during the year ended December 31, 2009 from $0.052 million during the year ended December 31, 2008.  As a result of our first production in the Tarapur 1 field we had depletion of $0.294 million or $27.05 per barrel for the year ended December 31, 2009 and depreciation of $0.059 million.  No depletion expense and depreciation of $0.052 million was recognized during the year ended December 31, 2008.

Impairment of oil and gas properties
During 2009, we incurred no asset impairment expense versus $10.098 million during the year ended December 31, 2008.  In 2009, any impairment to exploration properties was transferred to our full cost pool which is subject to ceiling test limitations.  No impairment was recognized under our ceiling test in 2009.  Our asset impairment in 2008 consisted of $3.765 million as a result of our decision not to exercise our option on two exploration blocks in the Arab Republic of Egypt and cease our exploration activities in Oman and Yemen.  The balance from 2008 of $6.333 million was a result of assessing our Indian properties on an individual basis considering various factors, including land relinquishment and the absence of hydrocarbons in certain exploratory wells.  Since the result of this assessment indicated impairment, the related costs incurred were charged to the statement of operations.
 
Capitalized overhead on oil and gas properties
We capitalize overhead costs directly related to our exploration activities in India.  During the year ended December 31, 2009 these capitalized overhead costs amounted to $1.098 million as compared to $1.081 million during the year ended December 31, 2008.  The difference was mostly attributable to an increase in the capitalized portion of the stock-based compensation for our non-employee consultants directly related in our oil and gas exploration activities for the year ended December 31, 2009 of $0.662 million versus $0.478 million for the year ended December 31, 2008.  The treatment of capitalized overhead costs remained consistent with the prior year and includes costs relating to personnel, consultants, their travel, necessary resources and stock-based compensation directly associated with the advancement of our oil and gas interests.
 
Reserve Report
As a result of the approval of the Tarapur 1 field development plan by the Management Committee in April 2009 and the completion of an independent reserve study dated January 1, 2011 by Chapman Petroleum Engineering Ltd. out of Calgary, Alberta, Canada, we claim reserves in the Tarapur 1 field as at December 31, 2010 as follows:

Proved Reserves
Proved oil and gas reserves are those quantities of oil and gas, which, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically producible from a given date forward from known reservoirs, and under existing economic conditions, operating methods and government regulations prior to the time at which contracts providing the right to operate expire, unless evidence indicates that renewal is reasonably certain, regardless of whether determinable or probabilistic methods are used for the estimates.  The project to extract the hydrocarbons must have commenced or the operator must be reasonably certain that it will commence the project within a reasonable time.
 
Probable Reserves
Probable reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than proved reserves but which, together with proved reserves, are as likely as not to be recovered.
 
Liquidity
Liquidity is a measure of a company’s ability to meet potential cash requirements. We have historically met our capital requirements through the issuance of common stock as well as proceeds from the exercise of warrants and options to purchase common equity.
 
Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining the necessary financing to complete further exploration and development activities and generate profitable operations from our oil and natural gas interests in the future. Our current operations are dependent upon the adequacy of our current assets to meet our current expenditure requirements and the accuracy of management’s estimates of those requirements.  Should those estimates be materially incorrect, our ability to continue as a going concern will be impaired.  Our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010 have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.  We have incurred a history of operating losses and negative cash flows from operations.  These matters may raise doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
 

 
Page 31


At December 31, 2010 our cash and cash equivalents were $7.751 million (December 31, 2009 - $16.295 million). The majority of this balance is being held in US funds, of which $7.592 million is held in term deposits earning interest based on the US prime rate which will contribute to covering a portion of our administrative costs and overhead throughout 2011. We have working capital of approximately $3.957 million available for the Company’s future operations.  In addition, we have $5.018 million in restricted deposits pledged as security against the minimum work programs for our exploration blocks which will be released upon completion of those minimum work programs.
 
We expect to incur expenditures to further our exploration programs.  Our existing cash balance and any cash flow from operating activities is not sufficient to satisfy our current obligations and meet our exploration commitments of $27.753 million over the next three years.
 
We are considering various alternatives with respect to raising additional capital to remedy any future shortfall in capital but to date have made no specific plans or arrangements. We deem it necessary to raise capital through equity markets, debt markets or other financing arrangements, including participation arrangements that may be available for continued exploration expenditures. Because of the early stage of our operations and our lack of any material oil and natural gas reserves, there can be no assurance this capital will be available and if it is not, we may be forced to substantially curtail or cease exploration, appraisal and development expenditures.  We believe that we will be able to raise additional capital which combined with our available cash resources will be sufficient to maintain our current level of activities through the next fiscal year.
 
Should the going concern assumption not be appropriate and we are not able to realize our assets and settle our liabilities, commitments and contingencies in the normal course of operations, our consolidated financial statements would require adjustments to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities, and these adjustments could be significant.  Our consolidated financial statements do not reflect the adjustments or reclassifications of assets and liabilities that would be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.
 
Years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009
During the year ended December 31, 2010 our overall position in cash and cash equivalents decreased by $8.544 million, as compared to a net decrease in the comparable period of 2009 of $9.138 million.  These cash movements were attributable to the following activities:
 
Our net cash used in operating activities during the year ended December 31, 2010 was $4.067 million as compared to $2.119 million for the year ended December 31, 2009.  This increase is mostly attributable to and consistent with the decrease in our current liabilities at December 31, 2010 to $8.544 million from $10.054 million at December 31, 2009.  The remainder of the decrease is comprised of the increase in the cash expenditures combined with a decline in our revenue and other income from $0.961 for the year ended December 31, 2009 to $0.843 million for the year ended December 31, 2010.
 
Cash used in investing activities during the year ended December 31, 2010 was $12.463 million as compared to $7.019 million during the year ended December 31, 2009.  Funds of $9.040 million were used for exploration activities as compared to $11.222 million in 2009.  This decrease is attributable and consistent with the decrease in accounts payable from $8.734 million at December 31, 2009 to $6.834 million at December 31, 2010 offset by an increase in accrued liabilities from $1.197 million to $1.683 million respectively.  This combined with our increase in accounts receivable which is mostly attributable to an unexpended cash call receivable of $1.961 for the seismic acquisition on our Samuel exploration license at December 31, 2010.
 
Cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2010 was $7.986 as compared to $nil during the year ended December 31, 2009.  During the year ended December 31, 2010 9,941,177 shares of common stock were issued pursuant to two private placement financings for gross proceeds of $8.450 million less share issuance costs of $0.464 million.  There were no private placement sales of our securities during 2009.
 
Years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008
During the year ended December 31, 2009 our overall position in cash and cash equivalents decreased by $9.138 million, as compared to a net decrease in the comparable period of 2008 of $22.702 million.  These cash movements were attributable to the following activities:
 
Our net cash used in operating activities during the year ended December 31, 2009 was $2.119 million as compared to $3.099 million for the year ended December 31, 2008.  This decrease is attributable to and consistent with the increase in our current liabilities at December 31, 2009 to $10.054 million from $9.211 million at December 31, 2008.
 

 
Page 32


Cash used in investing activities during the year ended December 31, 2009 was $7.019 million as compared to $20.263 million during the year ended December 31, 2008.  Funds of $11.222 million were used for exploration activities as compared to $16.074 million in 2008.  This decrease is consistent with the decrease in exploration activity in the year 2009 versus the year 2008.  Consequently, bank guarantees related to exploration activity also declined such that in the year ended December 31, 2009 funds were provided of $3.875 million versus an outlay for such instruments of $7.415 million in the year ended December 31, 2008.  These bank guarantees have been provided and serve as guarantees for the performance of our minimum work programs and are in the form of irrevocable letters of credit which are secured by our term deposits in the same amount.
 
Cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2009 was $Nil as compared to cash provided by financing activities of $0.660 million during the year ended December 31, 2008.  During the year ended December 31, 2009, no shares were issued versus the issuance of 600,000 shares of common stock on the exercise of options in the prior year for gross proceeds of $0.660 million.  There were no private placement sales of our securities during 2009 or 2008.
 
Capital Resources
We expect our exploration and development activities pursuant to our PSCs in India will continue through 2011 in accordance with the terms of those agreements.  During the year 2011 and up to March 31, 2012, based on the current budgets in India, we anticipate drilling seven exploratory wells; two core wells; acquiring, processing and interpreting 2,480 line kilometers of 2D seismic data; and acquiring, processing and interpreting 350 square kilometers of 3D seismic data as well as processing and interpreting an additional 400 square kilometers of 3D seismic data.  We further expect to tie-in additional oil wells in Tarapur along with the construction of a gas pipeline for the Tarapur G gas discovery and continue with the construction of the gas gathering and production facilities together with further development drilling on the KG Offshore Block in which we have a carried interest. Additional expenditures may be incurred in connection with additional exploratory, appraisal and development wells we may participate in.  Also, if the Government of India approves the increase to our participating interest in the KG Onshore Block to 20%, our obligations to fund 3D seismic acquisition and exploratory drilling on the block will increase.
 
We expect our exploration activities pursuant to our licenses in Israel will continue through 2011 in accordance with the terms of those agreements.  During the year 2011, we expect to complete the acquisition, processing and interpretation of 43 square kilometers of 3D seismic data in our Samuel license as well as to complete the processing and interpretation of 1,360 square kilometers of 3D seismic data covering our Sara and Myra licenses and also commence drilling our first deepwater exploration well before the end of the year.
 
In addition, we may during 2011 seek to participate in joint ventures bidding for the acquisition of oil and gas interests in India and other countries.  As of March 30, 2011 we have no specific plans regarding such activities and have not entered into any binding agreements with respect to such activities.  We expect that our interest in any such ventures would involve a minority participating interest in the venture.  In addition, although there are no present plans to do so, as opportunities arise we may seek to acquire minority participating interests in exploration blocks where PSCs have been heretofore awarded.  The acquisition of any such interests would be subject to the execution of a definitive agreement and obtaining the requisite government consents and other approvals.
 
As of March 30, 2011 the scope of any possible such activities has not been definitively established and, accordingly, we are unable to state the amount of any funds that will be required for these purposes. As a result, no specific plans or arrangements have been made to raise additional capital and we have not entered into any agreements in that regard. We expect that when we seek to raise additional capital it will be through the sale of equity securities, debt or other financing arrangements.  We are unable to estimate the terms on which such capital will be raised, the price per share or possible number of shares involved or the terms of any agreements to raise capital under other arrangements.
 
During the first quarter of 2010, we hired a new Senior Executive.  We do not expect to have any further significant change in 2011 in our number of employees.

Financial commitments under the production sharing and other contracts are outlined below and include only the commitments for the current exploration Phase that we are conducting.  Further, as we have not yet received Government of India consent to increasing our participating interest in the KG Onshore Block from 10% to 20%, our financial commitment shown in the table above includes only our 10% participating interest.
 
The KG Offshore Block
2011 Potential Expenditures
We anticipate the estimated total capital expenditures to be incurred by GSPC, the Operator of the KG Offshore Block during the twelve month period from April 1, 2011 to March 31, 2012 pursuant to the budget submitted to the  Management Committee in December 2010 for the development drilling of two new wells in the Deen Dayal West along with part of the construction of the wellhead platform, the gas gathering pipeline and the onshore gas terminal will be approximately $747.95 million (our 10% share being $74.795 million of which 50% is for the account of Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.).
 
Certain exploration costs related to the KG Offshore Block are incurred by us and on our behalf in providing our services under the Carried Interest Agreement and are therefore not reimbursable under the Carried Interest Agreement.
 
Financial Commitment
The amount attributable to us for the twelve month period from April 1, 2011 to March 31, 2012 under the Carried Interest Agreement is approximately $74.795 million, of which 50% is for the account of Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.  Under the terms of the Carried Interest Agreement, GeoGlobal and Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc. are carried by GSPC for 100% of our share of any costs during the exploration phase on the KG Offshore Block prior to the start date of initial commercial production.
 
As at December 31, 2010 GSPC has expended on exploration activities approximately $189.0 million attributable to us under the Carried Interest Agreement as compared to $150.0 million at December 31, 2009.  Of this amount, 50% is for the account of Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.
 
We will not realize cash flow from the KG Offshore Block until such time as the expenditures attributed to us, including those expenditures made for the account of Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc. under the Carried Interest Agreement have been recovered by GSPC from future production revenue.  Under the terms of the Carried Interest Agreement, all of our proportionate share of capital costs for exploration and development activities must be repaid to GSPC without interest over the projected production life or ten years, whichever is less.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
This discussion of financial condition and results of operations is based upon the information reported in our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make assumptions and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements. We base our assumptions and estimates on historical experience and other sources that we believe to be reasonable at the time. Actual results may vary from our estimates. Our significant accounting policies are detailed in Note 3 to our consolidated financial statements. We have outlined below certain accounting policies that are of particular importance to the presentation of our financial position and results of operations and require the application of significant judgment or estimates by our management.
 
Use of estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 may differ from these estimated amounts due to factors such as fluctuations in interest rates, currency exchange rates, inflation levels and commodity prices, changes in economic conditions and legislative and regulatory changes.
 
Significant estimates with regard to the consolidated financial statements include the estimated carrying value of unproved properties, the estimated cost and timing related to asset retirement obligations, stock-based compensation and contingencies.
 
Oil and Natural Gas Properties
We use the full cost method of accounting for our oil and natural gas properties.  Separate cost centers are maintained for each country in which we incur costs.  Under this method, we capitalize all acquisition, exploration and development costs incurred for the purpose of finding oil and natural gas reserves, including salaries, benefits and other internal costs directly attributable to these activities.  Costs associated with production and general corporate activities, however, are expensed in the period incurred.  To the extent that support equipment is used in oil and gas activities, the related depreciation is capitalized.  Proceeds from the disposition of oil and natural gas properties are accounted for as a reduction of capitalized costs, with no gain or loss recognized unless such disposition would alter the depletion and depreciation rate by 20% or more.
 
Capitalized costs of development oil and natural gas properties may not exceed an amount equal to the present value, discounted at 10%, of estimated future net revenues from proven reserves plus the lower of cost or fair value of unproven properties.  Should capitalized costs exceed this ceiling, an impairment is recognized.
 

 
Page 36


The present value of estimated future net cash flows is computed by applying the average first-day-of-the-month prices during the previous twelve month period of oil and natural gas to estimated future production of proved oil and natural gas reserves as of year-end less estimated future expenditures to be incurred in developing and producing the proved reserves and assuming continuation of existing economic conditions.
 
Following the discovery of reserves and the commencement of production, we compute depletion of oil and natural gas properties using the unit-of-production method based upon production and estimates of proved reserve quantities.
 
We assess all items classified as unproved property on a quarterly basis for possible impairment or reduction in value.  We assess properties on an individual basis or as a group if properties are individually insignificant.  The assessment includes consideration of the following factors, among others: land relinquishment; intent to drill; remaining lease term; geological and geophysical evaluations; drilling results and activity; the assignment of proved reserves; and the economic viability of development if proved reserves are assigned.  During any period in which these factors indicate an impairment, the related exploration costs incurred are transferred to the full cost pool and are then subject to depletion and the ceiling limitations on development oil and natural gas expenditures.
 
Asset Retirement Obligation
The fair values of estimated asset retirement obligations are recorded as liabilities when incurred and the associated cost is capitalized as part of the cost of the related asset.  The obligation to perform the asset retirement activity is unconditional even though uncertainty exists about the timing and/or method of settlement.  The liabilities are accreted as operating expense for the change in their time value.  The initial capitalized costs are included in depletion expense in a manner consistent with the related assets.  Changes in the estimated obligation resulting from revisions to the estimated timing or amount of undiscounted cash flows are recognized as a change in the asset retirement obligation and related asset.  Actual expenditures incurred are charged against the accumulated obligation.
 
Stock Based Compensation
Compensation cost for all share based payments are based on the fair value estimated and is recognized on a straight line basis over the vesting period for the award.  We account for transactions in which we issue equity instruments to acquire goods or services from non employees based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.
 
The fair value of share-based payments is capitalized or expensed, with a corresponding increase to additional paid-in capital for the equity classified awards, or the share-based payment liability for the liability classified awards.  Upon exercise of stock options, the consideration paid upon exercise is recorded as additional value of common stock in additional paid-in capital.

Item 7A.                 Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market risk is the potential loss arising from changes in market rates and prices.  We are exposed to the impact of market fluctuations associated with the following:
 
Interest Rate Risk
We consider our exposure to interest rate risk to be immaterial.  Interest rate exposures relate entirely to our investment portfolio, as we do not have short-term or long-term debt.  Our investment objectives are focused on preservation of principal and liquidity.  We manage our exposure to market risks by limiting investments to high quality bank issuers at overnight rates, or government securities of the United States or Canadian federal governments such as Guaranteed Investment Certificates or Treasury Bills.  We do not hold any of these investments for trading purposes.  We do not hold equity investments.  We do not expect any material loss from cash equivalents and therefore we believe our interest rate exposure on invested funds is not material.
 
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
Substantially, all of our cash and cash equivalents are held in U.S. dollars or U.S. dollar denominated securities.  Certain of our expenses are fixed or denominated by foreign currencies including the Canadian dollar and the Indian Rupees.  We are exposed to market risks associated with fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates related to our transactions denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar.
 
At December 31, 2010, we had not entered into any market risk sensitive instruments relating to our foreign currency exchange risk.
 

 
Page 37


Commodity Price Risk
Oil and natural gas prices are subject to wide fluctuations and market uncertainties due to a variety of factors that are beyond our control.  These factors include the level of global demand for petroleum products, international supply of oil and gas, the establishment of and compliance with production quotas by oil exporting countries, weather conditions, the price and availability of alternative fuels, overall economic conditions, both international and domestic, and possible international disruptions.  We cannot predict future oil and gas prices with any degree of certainty.  Sustained weakness in oil and gas prices may adversely affect our ability to obtain capital to fund our activities and could in the future require a reduction in the carrying value of our oil and gas properties.  Similarly, an improvement in oil and gas prices can have a favourable impact on our financial condition, results of operations and capital resources.
 
At December 31, 2010, we had not entered into any market risk sensitive instruments as such term is defined in Item 305 of Regulation S-K, relating to oil and natural gas.
 
Trading Risks
We have no market risk sensitive instruments held for trading purposes.

Item 8.                 Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

Our Financial Statements are included in a separate section of this report.  See Page FS 1.

Item 9.                 Changes In and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

There were no disagreements with accountants on accounting and financial disclosure.

Item 9A.                 Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures
In participation with our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2010.  Disclosure controls and procedures are defined under SEC rules as controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.
 
Based on our evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of December 31, 2010, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
 
Management’s Report on Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the company’s board of directors, management, and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 
Because of its inherent limitations, internal controls over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
 
In making our assessment of the effectiveness of the internal controls over financial reporting, management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, used the criteria set forth in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”).
 

 
Page 38


A material weakness (as defined in SEC Rule 12b-2) is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
 
Management has assessed and concluded that its internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2010, based on the criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by COSO.
 
KPMG LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm that audited the consolidated financial statements, has performed an audit of internal control over financial reporting.  Their report is included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K under Item 8, herein.
 
Remediation of Material Weaknesses in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In 2009, we did not maintain an effective control environment.  Specifically, we did not formally communicate and emphasize controls and enforce corporate strategy and objectives. We did not formally define roles and responsibilities for employees and management or have a formal process to monitor performance of employees and management against such objectives.  In response to this material weakness, management implemented the following corrective actions:
 
 
During the first quarter of 2010, a new senior executive officer was hired.  One of the responsibilities of this senior executive was to assist with strengthening our control environment.

 
During the third quarter of 2010, we strengthened our internal controls environment by restructuring our executive management team.  The new senior executive hired during the first quarter of 2010 was appointed as the new President and Chief Executive Officer.  The former Chief Financial Officer assumed new responsibilities as Vice President of Finance and the former Corporate Controller was promoted as our new Chief Financial Officer.

 
Also in the third quarter of 2010, we formally defined roles and responsibilities for our newly structured executive management team.
 
During the fourth quarter of 2010, the President and Chief Executive Officer conducted performance reviews with our employees and executive management team.
 
As a result of the corrective actions discussed above and the testing of these new controls, we have concluded that the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting relating to an effective control environment has been remediated in the fourth quarter of 2010.
 
Material Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
There were no other changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of 2010, other than described above that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal controls over financial reporting.

the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work performed by our independent auditor,
·

Compensation Committee
Our Compensation Committee consists of Mr. Hudson whom is the Chairman and Mr. Peters, both of whom have been determined to be an “independent” director.  Our Compensation Committee, which has adopted a charter, among other things, exercises general responsibility regarding overall employee and executive compensation.  Our Compensation Committee sets the annual salary, bonus and other benefits of the President and the Chief Executive Officer and approves compensation for all our other executive officers, consultants and employees after considering the recommendations of our President and Chief Executive Officer.  Although Committee meetings are held in executive session, without management’s presence, the Committee (and from time to time individual members of the Committee) may meet with senior officers of our company to discuss objectives, explain the rationale for certain objectives or milestones, and to assure that it has management’s input in assessing the consequences of decisions made in the Committee meetings, for instance, the impact that its decisions may have on our financial statements.  The Committee’s interactions with management seek to achieve a balance between receiving management’s opinion but still ensuring that management is not, in effect, establishing the terms and parameters for its own compensation.  In certain instances, where management has proposed objectives that are more aggressive than those proposed by the Committee, the Committee may elect to utilize management’s milestones rather than its own.
 
Our Compensation Committee had no meetings during the year ended December 31, 2010, however, two resolutions were circulated to the members of the Compensation Committee and both resolutions were signed by all members.

Represents the dollar amount recognized for financial statement reporting purposes with respect to the fiscal year in accordance with ASC 718.
 
Effective May 11, 2009 our company’s Board of Directors adopted an Independent Director Compensation Policy.  Under the Policy, each of our Independent Directors, as such term is defined under the NYSE Amex Company Guide, will receive an annual retainer of $24,000 payable in monthly instalments, and the Chairperson of our Audit Committee will receive an additional annual retainer of $6,000 payable in monthly instalments.
 
On September 24, 2009 a Special Committee of the Board of Directors was created for a six month period consisting of Mr. David Conklin as an independent director to perform the duties of and for this Special Committee.  The Board of Directors extended the terms of the Special Committee and as such, Mr. Conklin received $25,000 each month during 2010 for his duties performed of and for this Special Committee.  Subsequent to December 31, 2010 the Board of Directors amended the terms of the Special Committee to terminate at the end of January 2011 and effective February 1, 2011, Mr. Conklin will act as Special Advisor to the Chief Executive Officer and be paid monthly compensation of Cdn$13,500.
 
Our Directors are also reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses in attending meetings.
 
Pursuant to the terms of our 2008 Stock Incentive Plan, each non-employee Director automatically receives an option grant for 50,000 shares on the date such person joins the Board.  In addition, on the date of each annual stockholder meeting provided such person has served as a non-employee Director for at least six months, each non-employee Board member who is to continue to serve as a non-employee Board member will automatically be granted an option to purchase 50,000 shares.  Each such option has a term of ten years, subject to earlier termination following such person’s cessation of Board service, and is subject to certain vesting provisions.  For the purposes of the automatic grant provisions of our stock incentive plans, all of our Directors, other than Messrs. Roy and Kent are considered non-employee Board members.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
None of the members of our Compensation Committee were officers or employees of our company during the year ended December 31, 2010 or were former officers of our company or had any other relationship with our company requiring disclosure.
 
Compensation Discussion and Analysis
Policies and Objectives
Our Compensation Committee believes that our compensation policies and objectives should align with and reflect the stage of development of our operations, our operating objectives and the extent of realization of our objectives.  Our Compensation Committee believes that our policies and objectives must take into consideration our specific business objectives and manner of achieving those objectives and our ability to implement those objectives under the terms of the PSCs to which we are a party.  Accordingly, our compensation policies and objectives should be based on both our successes in entering into and pursuing joint venture arrangements, as well as the progress and success of the exploration and drilling activities of those ventures, whether undertaken directly by us or through the operators of the exploration blocks.
 
Our Compensation Committee also believes that the compensation of our executive officers should be based on the principles that the levels of compensation must enable our company to motivate and retain the talent we need to lead and make our company grow.  Our Compensation Committee further believes that the compensation levels must be competitive with similar other companies, be fair and reasonable and, where appropriate, reward successful performance.  Our Compensation Committee relies upon its judgment in making compensation decisions.
 
Because it believes such a structure is most appropriate to our company’s stage of development, the Compensation Committee has followed the practices established in 2005 of providing a compensation package to our executive officers consisting of monetary compensation and stock options.  Our Compensation Committee believes that the impact of applicable Canadian, United States and other foreign tax laws should be considered with respect to the compensation paid and the form of the compensation.  Our Compensation Committee does not establish any specific performance or target goals.
 
Direct Monetary Compensation
In a meeting in December 2007, the Compensation Committee considered in arriving at compensation for the fiscal year 2008 and beyond, among other things, the level of compensation for the executive officers during the prior fiscal years, the compensation levels paid by the peer group of companies as found in a compensation report prepared by Lane Caputo for the Company dated December 10, 2007, the growth and complexity of the executive officers tasks during the year and our company’s overall business plans for further growth in the following fiscal years.  We participated in the Lane Caputo December 2010 International Oil and Gas Exploration and Production Compensation Survey and as such, the survey was reviewed by the Compensation Committee and accordingly, the Compensation Committee made recommendations for the compensation for fiscal year 2010 and beyond in line with the findings of the updated report.
 
The direct monetary compensation of our executive officers is based on the scope of their duties and responsibilities and the executives’ individual performance in fulfilling those duties and responsibilities, in addition to the other factors described above.  Because of the inherent nature of our activities, the uncertain nature of the outcome of our activities, and the extended period of time over which the success of our activities will be determined, the Compensation Committee believes that, because the company’s ability to achieve its objectives is greatly dependent upon the activities of the operators of the drilling blocks in which we have an interest, the company’s success in its exploration and drilling activities during a particular year should not be the sole measure by which the direct monetary compensation of our executive officers is determined.  The Compensation Committee also recognizes that our company’s opportunity to enter into additional production-sharing or other contracts or acquire interests in ventures that are parties to such contracts is limited by availability of contracts and our company’s capital.  However, the Committee recognizes that future successes may lead it to award cash or other bonuses determined at that time and in the light of future events.
 
Our Compensation Committee had no meetings during the year ended December 31, 2010, however, two resolutions were circulated to the members of the Compensation Committee and both resolutions were signed by all members.
 
Equity Compensation
Our Compensation Committee believes that a material element of executive compensation should be the award of equity grants.  This element of compensation has taken the form of grants of options under our Stock Incentive Plan but other forms of equity grants may be considered.  The Compensation Committee believes the award of equity grants has the effect of aligning executive officers compensation to the future growth and success of our company.
 
Equity grants are the only form of long-term compensation utilized to compensate our executive officers at this time.  The Compensation Committee does not consider any relationship between Direct Monetary Compensation and Equity Compensation in making equity grants.  These grants are not based on any strict formula but rather are determined in the light of practices at the peer group selected, our company’s past practices, and our overall corporate performance during the period relative to our progress made in achieving our overall business plan objectives and achieving stockholder value.
 
The Compensation Committee awarded equity grants to certain of our executive officers in 2010.  See “Item 11 – Executive Compensation - Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End” for the schedule of award.

Other Benefits - Change of Control
We have no arrangements with our Directors regarding any monetary payments to them in the event of a change in control of our company.
 
However, we do have arrangements with our Executive Officers regarding monetary payments to them in the event of a change in control of our company.  Disbursements to the Executive Officers under these arrangements cover such payments as unpaid base salary, unpaid vacation pay and any unpaid bonus as approved by the Board of Directors as well as a lump sum amount which is determined based on length of service.
 
In the event that our company is acquired by merger or sale of substantially all of its assets or of securities possessing more than 50% of the total combined voting power of our outstanding securities, outstanding options granted under our 1998 Stock Incentive Plan and/or our 2008 Stock Incentive Plan containing vesting provisions, including those held by executive officers and Directors, immediately vest.  Each outstanding option which is not to be assumed by the successor corporation or otherwise continued in effect will automatically accelerate in full and become fully vested, subject to certain exceptions.  Our Stock Incentive Plans contain discretionary provisions regarding the grant of options with vesting provisions.  Options may also immediately vest in connection with a change in the majority of the Board of Directors of our company by reason of one or more contested elections for Board membership.
 
Perquisites
Our executive officers receive perquisites in the form of medical insurance coverage for executives and their families.  Our executives are also reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses on a cost recovery basis for expenses such as travel, hotel, meals and entertainment expenses incurred by them.
 
In addition, travel expenses of Mr. Roy will be paid for travel to India as approved by the Board of Directors based on the duration and purpose of the trip.
 
Structure of Compensation Arrangements
We have entered into the following arrangements regarding our executive officers.
 
We have an agreement with Roy Group (Barbados) Inc. under which, Roy Group (Barbados) Inc. agreed to perform such geologic and geophysical duties as are assigned to it by our company.  Mr. Roy performs services for us in his capacity as an employee of Roy Group (Barbados) Inc. and we pay compensation to Roy Group (Barbados) Inc.  Expenses incurred by Mr. Roy in connection with our company are reimbursed to Roy Group (Barbados) Inc. including travel expenses, hotel, meals, entertainment, computer costs and amounts billed to third parties.

On September 24, 2009 a Special Committee of the Board of Directors was created for a six month period consisting of Mr. David Conklin as an independent director to perform the duties of and for this Special Committee.  The Board of Directors extended the terms of the Special Committee and as such, Mr. Conklin received $25,000 per month during 2010 for his duties performed of and for this Special Committee.  Subsequent to December 31, 2010, the Board of Directors amended the terms of the Special Committee to terminate at the end of January 2011 and effective February 1, 2011, Mr. Conklin will act as Special Advisor to the Chief Executive Officer and be paid monthly compensation of Cdn$13,500.

Pursuant to the terms of our 2008 Stock Incentive Plan, each non-employee Director automatically receives an option grant for 50,000 shares on the date such person joins the Board.  In addition, on the date of each annual stockholder meeting provided such person has served as a non-employee Director for at least six months, each non-employee Board member who is to continue to serve as a non-employee Board member will automatically be granted an option to purchase 50,000 shares.  Each such option has a term of ten years, subject to earlier termination following such person’s cessation of Board service, and is subject to certain vesting provisions.  For the purposes of the automatic grant provisions of our Stock Incentive Plan, all of our Directors, other than Messrs. Miller, Roy and Kent, are/were considered non-employee Board members.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
GeoGlobal Resources Inc.
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of GeoGlobal Resources Inc. and subsidiaries (a development stage enterprise) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2010 and for the period from August 21, 2002 (inception) to December 31, 2010. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of GeoGlobal Resources Inc.’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. The cumulative statements of operations and comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the period August 21, 2002 (inception) to December 31, 2010 include amounts for the period from August 21, 2002 (inception) to December 31, 2002 and for each of the years in the four-year period ending December 31, 2006, which were audited by other auditors whose report has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for the period August 21, 2002 through December 31, 2006 is based solely on the report of other auditors.
 
We conducted our audits 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 financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of other auditors, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of GeoGlobal Resources Inc. and subsidiaries (a development stage enterprise) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2010 and for the period from August 21, 2002 (inception) to December 31, 2010, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that GeoGlobal Resources Inc. will continue as a going concern. As discussed in note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, GeoGlobal Resources Inc. has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a deficit accumulated during the development stage that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
 
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), GeoGlobal Resource Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our report dated March 31, 2011, expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of GeoGlobal Resources Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
GeoGlobal Resources Inc.:

We have audited GeoGlobal Resources Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). GeoGlobal Resources Inc.’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the GeoGlobal Resources Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting 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 effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, GeoGlobal Resources Inc. maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
 
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of GeoGlobal Resources Inc. and its subsidiaries (a development stage enterprise) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2010 and for the period from August 21, 2002 (inception) to December 31, 2010, and our report dated March 31, 2011 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2010


1.         Organization and Nature of Operations
 
The Company is engaged in the pursuit of petroleum and natural gas through exploration and development in India, Israel and Colombia.  Since inception, the efforts of GeoGlobal have primarily been devoted to the pursuit of Production Sharing Contracts (PSCs) with the Gujarat State Petroleum Corporation (GSPC), Oil India Limited and the Government of India and the exploration and development thereof.  The Company is a Delaware corporation with common stock listed and traded on the NYSE Amex Exchange under the symbol GGR.
 
On August 29, 2003, the Company commenced oil and gas exploration activities.  As of December 31, 2010, the Company has not achieved its planned principal operations from its oil and gas operations.  Accordingly, the Company’s activities are considered to be those of a “Development Stage Enterprise”.  Among the disclosures required by this status is that the Company’s financial statements be identified as those of a development stage enterprise.  In addition, the statements of operations and comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity and cash flows are required to disclose all activity since the Company’s date of inception.  The Company will continue to prepare its financial statements and related disclosures as those of a development stage enterprise until such time that the Company achieves planned principal operations.

2.         Going Concern
 
To date, the Company has not achieved its planned principal operations and is considered to be in the development stage.  The Company incurs cash outflows from operations, and at this time all exploration activities and overhead expenses are financed by way of equity issuance, oil and gas sales incidental to the exploration process and interest income.  The recoverability of the costs incurred to date is uncertain and dependent upon achieving significant commercial production or sale.
 
The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining the necessary financing to complete further exploration and development activities and generate profitable operations from its oil and natural gas interests in the future.  The Company’s current operations are dependent upon the adequacy of its current assets to meet its current expenditure requirements and the accuracy of management’s estimates of those requirements.  Should those estimates be materially incorrect, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern will be impaired.  The Company’s financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2010 have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.  During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company incurred a net loss of approximately $18.79 million, used approximately $4.07 million of cash flow in its operating activities, used approximately $12.46 million in its investing activities and had an accumulated deficit of approximately $47.56 million.  These matters raise doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
 
The Company expects to incur expenditures to further its exploration programs.  The Company’s existing cash balance and any cash flow from operating activities is not sufficient to satisfy its current obligations and meet its commitments of $29.85 million over the next three years ending December 31, 2013, approximately $13.15 million of which is attributable to the twelve months ending December 31, 2011.  The Company is considering various alternatives to remedy any future shortfall in capital.  The Company deems it necessary to raise capital for continued exploration and development expenditures through equity markets, debt markets or other financing arrangements, which could include the sale of oil and gas interests or participation arrangements in oil and gas interests.   There can be no assurance this capital will be available and if it is not, we may be forced to substantially curtail or cease exploration block acquisition and/or exploration and development expenditures.
 
As at December 31, 2010, the Company has working capital of approximately $3.96 million which is available for the company’s future operations.  In addition, the Company has $5.02 million in restricted deposits pledged as security against the minimum work programs which will be released upon completion of the minimum work programs.
 
Should the going concern assumption not be appropriate and the Company not be able to realize its assets and settle its liabilities, commitments (as described in note 15) and contingencies (as described in note 16) in the normal course of operations, these audited consolidated financial statements would require adjustments to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities, and these adjustments could be significant.
 
These audited consolidated financial statements do not reflect the adjustments or reclassifications of assets and liabilities that would be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2010


3.         Significant Accounting Policies
 
Principles of consolidation
These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly-owned.  These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.  A significant portion of the Company’s activities conducted jointly with others and the consolidated financial statements reflect only the Company’s proportionate interest in such activities.  All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.  Certain of the comparative amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.
 
Use of estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 may differ from these estimated amounts due to factors such as fluctuations in interest rates, currency exchange rates, inflation levels and commodity prices, changes in economic conditions and legislative and regulatory changes.
 
Significant estimates with regard to the consolidated financial statements include the estimated carrying value of unproved properties, the estimated cost and timing related to asset retirement obligations, stock-based compensation and contingencies.
 
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, balances with banks, money market mutual funds and highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less.  Certain of the Company’s cash balances are maintained in foreign banks.  At times, the Company maintains deposits in financial institutions in excess of federally insured limits.
 
Property and equipment
Oil and natural gas properties
The Company uses the full cost method of accounting for its oil and natural gas properties.  Separate cost centers are maintained for each country in which the Company incurs costs.  Under this method, the Company capitalizes all acquisition, exploration and development costs incurred for the purpose of finding oil and natural gas reserves, including salaries, benefits and other internal costs directly attributable to these activities.  Costs associated with production and general corporate activities, however, are expensed in the period incurred.  To the extent that support equipment is used in oil and gas activities, the related depreciation is capitalized.  Proceeds from the disposition of oil and natural gas properties are accounted for as a reduction of capitalized costs, with no gain or loss recognized unless such disposition would alter the depletion and depreciation rate by 25% or more.
 
Capitalized costs of development oil and natural gas properties may not exceed an amount equal to the present value, discounted at 10%, of estimated future net revenues from proved reserves plus the lower of cost or fair value of unproven properties.  Should capitalized costs exceed this ceiling, an impairment is recognized.
 
The present value of estimated future net cash flows is computed by applying the average first-day-of-the-month prices during the previous twelve-month period of oil and natural gas to estimated future production of proved oil and natural gas reserves as of year-end less estimated future expenditures to be incurred in developing and producing the proved reserves and assuming continuation of existing economic conditions.
 
Following the discovery of reserves and the commencement of production, the Company computes depletion of oil and natural gas properties using the unit-of-production method based upon production and estimates of proved reserve quantities.
 
The Company assesses all items classified as unproved property on a quarterly basis for possible impairment or reduction in value.  The Company assesses properties on an individual basis or as a group if properties are individually insignificant.  The assessment includes consideration of the following factors, among others: land relinquishment; intent to drill; remaining lease term; geological and geophysical evaluations; drilling results and activity; the assignment of proved reserves; and the economic viability of development if proved reserves are assigned.  During any period in which these factors indicate an impairment, the related exploration costs incurred are transferred to the full cost pool and are then subject to depletion and the ceiling limitations on development oil and natural gas expenditures.

3.         Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
 
Others
Property and equipment, other than oil and natural gas properties, are recorded at cost and depreciated over their estimated useful lives which range from three to twenty years on a declining balance basis.  The Company reviews the carrying value of property and equipment for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.
 
Income taxes
The Company follows the liability method of tax allocation.  This method requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between financial accounting bases and tax bases of assets and liabilities.  The tax benefits of tax loss carry-forwards and other deferred taxes are recorded as an asset to the extent that management assesses the utilization of such assets to be more likely than not.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the tax rate in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect of a change in tax rates of deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the year of the enacted rate change.  Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
 
The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense.
 
Asset retirement obligations
The fair values of estimated asset retirement obligations are recorded as liabilities when incurred and the associated cost is capitalized as part of the cost of the related asset.  The obligation to perform the asset retirement activity is unconditional even though uncertainty exists about the timing and/or method of settlement.  The liabilities are accreted as operating expense for the change in their time value.  The initial capitalized costs are included in depletion expense in a manner consistent with the related assets.  Changes in the estimated obligation resulting from revisions to the estimated timing or amount of undiscounted cash flows are recognized as a change in the asset retirement obligation and related asset.  Actual expenditures incurred are charged against the accumulated obligation.
 
Stock-based compensation plan
Compensation cost for all share-based payments are based on the fair value estimated and is recognized on a straight line basis over the vesting period for the award.  The Company accounts for transactions in which it issues equity instruments to acquire goods or services from non-employees based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.
 
The fair value of share-based payments is capitalized or expensed, with a corresponding increase to additional paid-in capital for the equity-classified awards, or the share-based payment liability for the liability-classified awards.  Upon exercise of stock options, the consideration paid upon exercise is recorded as additional value of common stock in additional paid-in capital.
 
Revenue recognition
Revenue from the sale of crude oil and gas is recognized upon the transfer of custody to the customer.
 
Comprehensive loss
Comprehensive loss includes all changes in equity except those resulting from investments made by owners and distributions to owners.  Comprehensive loss consists only of net loss for all periods presented.
 
Net loss per share
Basic per share amounts are computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding for the period.  Diluted per share amounts reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised to common stock.
 
The treasury stock method is used to determine the dilutive effect of the stock options.  The treasury stock method assumes any proceeds obtained upon exercise of options would be used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period.  Under the treasury stock method, only options or other dilutive instruments for which the exercise price is less than the market value impact the dilution calculations.
 
Foreign currency translation
The U.S. dollar is the functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries.  Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at rates of exchange in effect at the date of the balance sheet.  Non-monetary items are translated at the rate of exchange in effect when the assets are acquired or obligations incurred.  Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates in effect during the period, with the exception of depreciation which is translated at historic rates.  Exchange gains and losses are charged to operations.

3.         Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
 
Concentration of risk
The majority of the Company’s capitalized costs for oil and gas interests are incurred with two major operators in India.  The Company relies on these operators in fulfilling its obligations and meeting the terms of its contracts with the Government of India.  In addition, the Company relies on these operators for discovering economically recoverable reserves and their ability to market those reserves at prices that will yield a return on our investment to us.
 
Financial instruments
The Company has estimated the fair value of its financial instruments which include cash and cash equivalents, restricted deposits, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and amounts due to related companies.  The Company used market information available as at year end to determine that the carrying amounts of such financial instruments approximate fair value in all cases.
 
Periodically, the Company utilizes marketable securities to invest a portion of its cash on hand.  These securities are carried at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets, with the changes in the fair value included in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the period in which the change occurs.
 
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price).
 
The following fair value hierarchy establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value:
 
Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.  Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
 
Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date and includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies.
 
Level 3 – Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources.  These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value.
 
4.         Restricted Deposits
 
The Company’s PSCs relating to exploration blocks onshore and offshore India contain provisions whereby the joint venture participants must provide the Government of India a bank guarantee in the amount of 35% of the participant’s share of the minimum work program for a particular phase, to be undertaken annually during the budget period April 1 to March 31.  These bank guarantees have been provided to the Government of India and serve as guarantees for the performance of such minimum work programs and are in the form of irrevocable letters of credit which are secured by term deposits of the Company in the same amount.
 
The term deposits securing these bank guarantees are as follows:

The Company has capitalized $599,234 (2009 - $1,098,345) of general and administrative costs directly related to exploration activities, including $252,335 (2009 - $662,420) of stock-based compensation expense.  In addition, the Company has capitalized $56,943 (2009 - $50,599) of support equipment depreciation.
 
Impairment of Oil and Gas Properties
The Company performed a ceiling test calculation at December 31, 2010, to assess the ceiling limitation of its proved oil and natural gas properties.  At December 31, 2010, the Company’s net capitalized costs of proved oil and natural gas properties did exceed the ceiling limitation.  Accordingly, for the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company charged $13,789,000 (December 31, 2009 - $Nil and December 31, 2008 - $10,098,015) to the statement of operations for impairment charges. The impairment charge of $13,789,000 was recognized in the fourth quarter of 2010 as a result of ceiling limitation as at December 31, 2010.

6.         Asset Retirement Obligation
 
Asset retirement obligations are recorded for legal obligations where the Company will be required to retire, dismantle, abandon and restore tangible long-lived assets.
 
The following table summarizes the changes in the asset retirement obligation:

Asset retirement obligation at end of year
    680,144       775,000  
 
For the year ended December 31, 2010, no new obligations were incurred.  In determining the fair value of the asset retirement obligations, the estimated cash flows of new obligations incurred during the year ended December 31, 2009 have been discounted at 10%.  The total undiscounted amount of the estimated cash flows required to settle the obligations is $1,543,000 (2009 – $1,874,000), which is expected to be paid after five years.  The obligations will be settled on an ongoing basis over the useful lives of the operating assets, which extend up to 20 years in the future.

7.         Fair Value Measurements
 
The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, restricted deposits, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and amounts due to related companies approximate their estimated fair value due to their short term to maturity.

8.         Capital Stock
 
On October 15, 2010, the Company completed a registered direct offering and issued 7,000,000 common stock to an institutional investor at a price of $0.85 per common share for aggregate gross proceeds of $5,950,000.  The total share issuance costs of $161,850 associated with the offering were fully allocated to the common stock and recorded as share issuance costs and reduced additional paid-in capital.
 
On October 18, 2010, the Company completed a registered direct placement with an institutional investor pursuant to which the Company issued 2,941,177 Units at a price of $0.85 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $2,500,000.  The 2,941,177 Units consist of 2,941,177 common stock, 1,470,588 callable warrants and 1,470,588 non-callable warrants.  The holder of each callable and non-callable warrant is entitled to subscribe for and purchase one common share of the Company at an exercise price of $1.00 per common share and the warrants are exercisable for a period beginning April 11, 2011 and expiring October 15, 2015.  The callable warrants may be called for cancellation by the Company for $0.001 per common share if the volume weighted average price of a share of common stock for each of 30 consecutive trading days (the “Measurement Period”) exceeds $3.00 and the average daily volume for such Measurement Period exceeds $350,000 per trading day.  The placement agent on this transaction was paid a cash fee of 6% of the aggregate gross proceeds raised in the placement totaling $150,000 and $20,000 towards reimbursement for certain of its expenses.  In addition, the Company issued the placement agent 176,471 warrants to purchase up to 176,471 common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $1.00 per common share.
 
The proceeds from the issuance of the Units have been allocated between the common stock and the warrants based on their fair value.  The fair value of the common share was determined based on the market price of the stock the day the registered direct placement closed.  The fair value of the warrants was based on a Black-Scholes option-pricing model and the following weighted average assumptions as at the date of the registered direct placement closing as follows:
 
Risk-free interest rate
1.20%
Expected life
5.0 years
Expected volatility
104.7%
Expected dividend yield
0%
 
The resulting allocation of the fair value to the common stock and the warrants (included as additional paid-in capital) was $507,000 and $1,993,000 respectively.

On May 26, 2009, the Board of Directors approved a two-year extension for all compensation options, Compensation Warrants and Share Purchase Warrants from June 20, 2009 to June 20, 2011.  The Company has recorded the incremental difference in the fair value of the original and modified instruments on the date of modification.  The fair value of the modified instruments was determined using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model using the following assumptions prior to and as at the date of extension:

The resulting incremental fair value of $1,754,000 associated with the Stock Purchase Warrants was recorded as a charge to the deficit in the year ended December 31, 2009, with a corresponding entry to additional paid-in capital.  The resulting incremental fair value of the Compensation Options and the Compensation Warrants of $264,000 was recorded as a charge to general and administrative expense in the year ended December 31, 2009, with a corresponding entry to additional paid-in capital.

Under the terms of the 1998 Plan, as amended, 12,000,000 common stock were reserved for issuance on exercise of options granted under the 1998 Plan.  The 1998 Plan terminated on December 4, 2008 and as such, there are no options to be granted under the 1998 Plan, however, as at December 31, 2010, there are 1,800,000 options that were granted prior to December 4, 2008 which are currently outstanding and are able to be exercised.
 
The Companys 2008 stock incentive plan (2008 Plan)
Under the terms of the 2008 Plan, 12,000,000 common stock have been reserved for issuance on exercise of options granted under the 2008 Plan.  As at December 31, 2010, the Company had 9,250,000 common stock remaining for the grant of options under the 2008 Plan.  The Board of Directors of the Company may amend or modify the 2008 Plan at any time, subject to any required stockholder approval.  The 2008 Plan will terminate on the earliest of: (i) May 30, 2018; (ii) the date on which all shares available for issuance under the 2008 Plan have been issued as fully-vested shares; or, (iii) the termination of all outstanding options in connection with certain changes in control or ownership of the Company.
 
Stock-based compensation
The Company is required to recognize compensation cost for stock-based compensation arrangements with employees, non-employee consultants and non-employee directors based on their fair value using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, such cost to be expensed over the respective vesting periods.  For awards with graded vesting, in which portions of the award vest in different periods, the Company recognizes compensation costs over the vesting periods for each separate vested tranche.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within the provision for income taxes on continuing tax benefits.  There are no unrecognized tax benefits that if recognized would affect the tax rate.  The Company or one of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, state jurisdictions and other foreign jurisdictions.  The Company is no longer subject to US federal or non-US income tax examinations for years before 2006.  There are no income tax examinations currently in process.
 
Deferred income taxes
The Company provides for deferred taxes on temporary differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets using the enacted tax rates that are expected to apply to taxable income when the temporary differences are expected to reverse.  Significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities that result from loss carry forwards and temporary differences between the financial statement basis and tax basis of assets and liabilities are summarized as follows:

    (3,111,533 )     (2,443,575 )
Deferred income tax asset/(liability)
    (61,000 )     --  
 
To date, the Company has incurred operating losses since inception.  This general pattern does not allow the Company to project sufficient sources of future taxable income to offset our net deferred tax assets.  Under these current circumstances, it is management’s opinion that the realization of these tax attributes does not reach the “more likely than not” criteria, and as a result, a valuation allowance has been recorded to off-set the net deferred tax asset at December 31, 2010.

GSPC Dispute
GSPC, the operator of the KG Offshore Block in which the Company has a net 5% carried interest, has been seeking from the Company, payment of its pro rata portion of the amount by which the sums expended by GSPC under all phases for the minimum work program as set forth in the PSC for the KG Offshore Block in carrying out exploration activities on the block exceeds the amount that GSPC deems to be the Company’s pro rata portion of a financial commitment under all phases included in the parties’ joint bid for the award of the KG Offshore Block by the Government of India.
 
GSPC contends that this excess amount is not within the terms of the Carried Interest Agreement and asserts that the Company is required to pay 10% of the exploration expenses over and above gross costs of $109.7 million (10% being $10.97 million) (including the net 5% interest of Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.) plus interest.
 
GSPC advised the Company on November 5, 2008 that the minimum work program for the KG Offshore Block had been completed in September 2008.  Further, GSPC elected to undertake an additional work program over and above the minimum work program as either Joint Operations or as Exclusive Operations under the terms of the PSC and advised that the Company must elect whether to participate in these additional exploration activities as a Joint Operation or alternatively, GSPC would conduct these drilling activities as Exclusive Operations, as defined in the PSC.
 
On November 13, 2008 the Company advised GSPC that it exercised its right to participate in the drilling operations proposed in the November 5, 2008 GSPC letter as a Joint Operation under the terms of the PSC and Joint Operating Agreement and  pursuant to the terms of our Carried Interest Agreement with GSPC.  As such, the Company continues to be of the view that it is carried for 100% of its entire share of any and all costs during the additional exploration phase prior to the start of initial commercial production and that the Carried Interest Agreement extends through the exploration period of the PSC.
 
In August 2010 GSPC advised the Company that it is of the view that the technical and other advice provided by the Company in the preparation of the parties’ original bid document submitted to the Government of India in 2002 under NELP-III has proven to be incorrect causing GSPC’s costs in the project to exceed its estimate.  GSPC asserts that by reason of the foregoing the Carried Interest Agreement between the parties is void and consequently the PSC to which the Government of India is party and the Joint Operating Agreement are also void.
 
The Company has advised GSPC that under the terms of the Carried Interest Agreement (the terms of which are also incorporated into the PSC and the Joint Operating Agreement) they have no right to such payment under the Carried Interest Agreement.  The Company has advised GSPC that the Company fulfilled its obligations under the Carried Interest Agreement to provide extensive technical assistance without any further remuneration other than the carried interest, all in accordance with the terms of the Carried Interest Agreement.  The Company obtained the opinion of prominent Indian legal counsel who has advised that under the terms of the agreements between the parties, and in particular the Carried Interest Agreement, the Company is not liable to pay any amount to GSPC for costs or expenses incurred or otherwise before reaching the stage of commercial production.
 
The Company disputes these positions of GSPC and the conclusions reached by GSPC and continue to state that the Company holds a gross 10% interest in the KG Offshore Block (including the 5% interest of Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.).  In a KG Offshore Block Management Committee meeting held in October, 2010, the Management Committee (of which the Government of India is a member) advised GSPC to resolve these issues with the Company at the earliest and requested GSPC to maintain status quo until the issues are resolved.
 
Based upon the audited accounts of the joint venture for the KG Offshore Block, the total costs incurred to March 31, 2010 were $1.447 billion (10% being $144.7 million of which 50% is for the account of Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.).  Further, based upon the budget for the fiscal year April 1, 2010 to March 31, 2011, total costs projected were $601 million with approximately $446 million spent by December 31, 2010 (10% being $60.1 million and $44.6 million respectively).  Therefore, management estimates that the amount of GSPC’s claim as of December 31, 2010 to be approximately $189 million plus interest of which 50% is for the account of Roy Group (Mauritius) Inc.  The Company disputes this assertion of GSPC.
 
The Company intends to vigorously protect its contractual rights in accordance with the dispute resolution process under the Carried Interest Agreement, the PSC and the Joint Operating Agreement as may be appropriate.  In September 2007, the Company commenced discussions with GSPC in an effort to reach an amicable resolution.  A number of draft settlement proposals have been put forward by the Company to GSPC seeking to settle this dispute amicably.  Subsequent to the October 2010 Management Committee meeting the Company’s management has again met with senior management of GSPC to continue its effort to reach an amicable resolution.  However, no settlement agreement has been reached as of March 30, 2011 and there can be no assurance that this matter will be settled amicably.

Net Proved Oil and Natural Gas Reserves
The Company retains qualified independent reserves evaluators to evaluate the Company’s proved oil and natural gas reserves.
·  
For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 the reports by Chapman Petroleum Engineering Ltd. (“Chapman”) covered 100% of the Company’s oil and natural gas reserves.
·  
For the year ended December 31, 2008 the Company had no oil and natural gas reserves.
 
Proved oil and natural gas reserves, as defined within the SEC Rule 4-10(a)(22) of Regulation S-X, are those quantities of oil and gas, which, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically producible from a given date forward from known reservoirs, and under existing economic conditions, operating methods and government regulations prior to the time of which contracts providing the right to operate expire, unless evidence indicates that renewal is reasonably certain, regardless of whether determinable or probabilistic methods are used for the estimation.  The project to extract the hydrocarbons must have commenced or the operator must be reasonably certain that it will commence the project within a reasonable time.  Developed oil and natural gas reserves are reserves that can be expected to be recovered from existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods or in which the cost of the required equipment is relatively minor compared to the cost of a new well; and through installed extraction equipment and infrastructure operational at the time of the reserves estimate is the extraction is by means not involving a well.
 
Estimates of oil and natural gas reserves are subject to uncertainty and will change as additional information regarding producing fields and technology becomes available and as future economic and operating conditions change.

Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows From Proved Oil and Natural Gas Reserves and Changes Therein
The following standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows from proved oil and natural gas reserves has been computed using the average first-day-of-the-month price during the previous 12-month period, costs as at the balance sheet date and year-end statutory income tax rates. A discount factor of 10% has been applied in determining the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows. The Company does not believe that the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows will be representative of actual future net cash flows and should not be considered to represent the fair value of the oil and natural gas properties. Actual net cash flows will differ from the presented estimated future net cash flows due to several factors including:
·  
Future production will include production not only from proved properties, but may also include production from probable and possible reserves;
·  
Future production of oil and natural gas from proved properties may differ from reserves estimated;
·  
Future production rates may vary from those estimated;
·  
Future rather than average first-day-of-the-month prices during the previous 12-month period and costs as at the balance sheet date will apply;
·  
Economic factors such as changes to interest rates, income tax rates, regulatory and fiscal environments and operating conditions cannot be determined with certainty;
·  
Future estimated income taxes do not take into account the effects of future exploration expenditures; and
·  
Future development and asset retirement obligations may differ from those estimated.
 
Future net revenues, development, production and restoration costs have been based upon the estimates referred to above. The following tables summarize the Company’s future net cash flows relating to proved oil and natural gas reserves based on the standardized measure as prescribed in FASB Topic 932 – “Extractive Activities – Oil and Gas”:

SCOPE OF REPORT
 

Authorization
This evaluation has been authorized by Mr. Sunil Karkera, on behalf of GeoGlobal Resources Inc.   The engineering analysis has been performed during the months of January and February 2011.

Purpose
The purpose of this report was to prepare a third party independent appraisal of the oil and gas reserves owned by GeoGlobal Resources Inc. for the Company's financial planning and for filing with the SEC in the USA.
 
The values in this report do not include the value of the Company's undeveloped land holdings nor the tangible value of their interest in associated plant and well site facilities they may own.

Reserve Definitions
Proved and probable reserves as classified in the report have been based on Rule 4-10(a) of Regulation S-X of the Securities Exchange Act. The following definitions are considered to be consistent with the principles of COGEH and are compliant with the standards of NI 51-101:

Classification of Reserves
Proved Oil and Gas Reserves
Proved oil and gas reserves are those quantities of oil and gas, which, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically producible—from a given date forward, from known reservoirs, and under existing economic conditions, operating methods, and government regulations—prior to the time at which contracts providing the right to operate expire, unless evidence indicates that renewal is reasonably certain, regardless of whether deterministic or probabilistic methods are used for the estimation. The project to extract the hydrocarbons must have commenced or the operator must be reasonably certain that it will commence the project within a reasonable time.
 
(i)
The area of the reservoir considered as proved includes:
 
(A)
The area identified by drilling and limited by fluid contacts, if any, and
 
(B)
Adjacent undrilled portions of the reservoir that can, with reasonable certainty, be judged to be continuous with it and to contain economically producible oil or gas on the basis of available geoscience and engineering data.
 
(ii)
In the absence of data on fluid contacts, proved quantities in a reservoir are limited by the lowest known hydrocarbons (LKH) as seen in a well penetration unless geoscience, engineering, or performance data and reliable technology establishes a lower contact with reasonable certainty.
 
(iii)
Where direct observation from well penetrations has defined a highest known oil (HKO) elevation and the potential exists for an associated gas cap, proved oil reserves may be assigned in the structurally higher portions of the reservoir only if geoscience, engineering, or performance data and reliable technology establish the higher contact with reasonable certainty.
 
(iv)
Reserves which can be produced economically through application of improved recovery techniques (including, but not limited to, fluid injection) are included in the proved classification when:
 
(A)
Successful testing by a pilot project in an area of the reservoir with properties no more favorable than in the reservoir as a whole, the operation of an installed program in the reservoir or an analogous reservoir, or other evidence using reliable technology establishes the reasonable certainty of the engineering analysis on which the project or program was based; and
 
(B)
The project has been approved for development by all necessary parties and entities, including governmental entities.

 
 

 


 
(v)
Existing economic conditions include prices and costs at which economic producibility from a reservoir is to be determined. The price shall be the average price during the 12-month period prior to the ending date of the period covered by the report, determined as an unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month price for each month within such period, unless prices are defined by contractual arrangements, excluding escalations based upon future conditions.

Probable Reserves
Probable reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than proved reserves but which, together with proved reserves, are as likely as not to be recovered.
(i)  
When deterministic methods are used, it is as likely as not that actual remaining quantities recovered will exceed the sum of estimated proved plus probable reserves. When probabilistic methods are used, there should be at least a 50% probability that the actual quantities recovered will equal or exceed the proved plus probable reserves estimates.
(ii)  
Probable reserves may be assigned to areas of a reservoir adjacent to proved reserves where data control or interpretations of available data are less certain, even if the interpreted reservoir continuity of structure or productivity does not meet the reasonable certainty criterion. Probable reserves may be assigned to areas that are structurally higher than the proved area if these areas are in communication with the proved reservoir.
(iii)  
Probable reserves estimates also include potential incremental quantities associated with a greater percentage recovery of the hydrocarbons in place than assumed for proved reserves.

Possible Reserves
Possible reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than probable reserves.
(i)  
When deterministic methods are used, the total quantities ultimately recovered from a project have a low probability of exceeding proved plus probable plus possible reserves. When probabilistic methods are used, there should be at least a 10% probability that the total quantities ultimately recovered will equal or exceed the proved plus probable plus possible reserves estimates.
(ii)  
Possible reserves may be assigned to areas of a reservoir adjacent to probable reserves where data control and interpretations of available data are progressively less certain. Frequently, this will be in areas where geoscience and engineering data are unable to define clearly the area and vertical limits of commercial production from the reservoir by a defined project.
(iii)  
Possible reserves also include incremental quantities associated with a greater percentage recovery of the hydrocarbons in place than the recovery quantities assumed for probable reserves.
   
        (iv)
The proved plus probable and proved plus probable plus possible reserves estimates must be based on reasonable alternative technical and commercial interpretations within the reservoir or subject project that are clearly documented, including comparisons to results in successful similar projects.
(iv)  
Possible reserves may be assigned where geoscience and engineering data identify directly adjacent portions of a reservoir within the same accumulation that may be separated from proved areas by faults with displacement less than formation thickness or other geological discontinuities and that have not been penetrated by a wellbore, and the registrant believes that such adjacent portions are in communication with the known (proved) reservoir. Possible reserves may be assigned to areas that are structurally higher or lower than the proved area if these areas are in communication with the proved reservoir.
(v)  
Pursuant to paragraph (a)(22)(iii) of this section, where direct observation has defined a highest known oil (HKO) elevation and the potential exists for an associated gas cap, proved oil reserves should be assigned in the structurally higher portions of the reservoir above the HKO only if the higher contact can be established with reasonable certainty through reliable technology. Portions of the reservoir that do not meet this reasonable certainty criterion may be assigned as probable and possible oil or gas based on reservoir fluid properties and pressure gradient interpretations.

 
 

 

Barrel of Oil Equivalent
If at any time in this report reference is made to “Barrels of Oil Equivalent” (BOE), the conversion used is 6 Mscf : 1 STB (6 Mcf : 1 bbl).
 
BOEs may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A BOE conversion ratio of 6 Mcf : 1 bbl is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent value equivalency at the well head.

Sources of Information
Source of the data used in the preparation of this report are as follows:
i)  
Ownership and Burdens have been derived from the Company's land records and other information from the Company as required for clarification;
ii)  
Production data is acquired from public data sources, except for very recent data or certain wells which are provided directly by the Company;
iii)  
Well data is accessed from the Company's well files and from public data sources;
iv)  
Operating Costs are based on actual revenue and expense statements provided by the Company for established properties or from discussions with the Company and our experience in the area for new or non-producing properties;
v)  
Price differentials are derived from revenue statements, compared to actual posted prices for the appropriate benchmark price over a period of several months for established properties or from discussions with the Company and our experience in the area for new or non-producing properties;
vi)  
Timing of Development Plans and Capital estimates are normally determined by discussions with the Company together with our experience and judgment.

Product Sales Arrangements
The Company does not have any "hedge" contracts in place at this time.

Royalties
A full provision for Crown royalties under the latest regulations and incentive programs for the Tarapur area have been included in this report.
 
Under the terms of the Production Sharing Agreement, all royalties and cess fees are paid by the licensee, OGNC.

Capital Expenditures and Operating Costs
Operating costs and capital expenditures have been based on historical experience and analogy where necessary and have not been escalated.

Income Tax Parameters
Net cash flows after consideration of corporate income tax have been included in this report.
 
The Company has a seven year income tax holiday on production from this area. Once the holiday period has expired, the Company can offset future income with their share of sunk exploration and development capital. Once all sunk capital is recovered, the net revenue from profit petroleum is taxable at a rate of 41.2%. The majority of operating costs are deductible.
 
Abandonment and restoration costs, net of salvage, have been accounted for in the cash flow forecasts for each level of reserves. Abandonment and restoration cost estimates have been based on discussions with the Company and analogy with similar fields in the area.

Economics
The economic analysis has been performed on a spread sheet format to account for all the terms of the PSC.


 
 

 

Constant Price Parameters
The price used for each area in this report, in accordance with SEC regulation S-X rule 4-10, was the average price during the 12-month period prior to the ending date of the period covered by the report, determined as an unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day of-the-month price for each month within such period, unless prices are defined by contractual arrangements, excluding escalations based upon future conditions.
 
Adjustments for crude quality, gas heating value and NGL trucking and fractionation have still been applied to the average prices to reflect actual prices being received.  In addition, no escalation has been applied to either the capital expenditures or operating costs.
 
The average price shown in the cash flows may differ from year to year due to variations in the proportionate production volumes from each property relative to the total.
 
For the purpose of US Security Exchange Commission filing, the results of the Constant Prices and Cost case for proved and probable reserves are expressed in United States dollars are presented in the Summary of Reserves and Economics (SEC).

(A)  
In lieu of a meeting, any Party may submit any proposal to the Operating Committee for a vote by notice.  The proposing Party or Parties shall notify Operator who shall give each Party’s representative notice describing the proposal so submitted and whether Operator considers such operational matter to require urgent determination.  Operator shall include with such notice adequate documentation in connection with such proposal to enable the Parties to make a decision.  Each Party shall communicate its vote by notice to Operator and the other Parties within one of the following appropriate time periods after receipt of Operator’s notice:
 
(1)  
48 hours in the case of operations which involve the use of a drilling rig that is standing by in the Contract Area and such other operational matters reasonably considered by Operator to require by their nature urgent determination (such operations and matters being referred to as “Urgent Operational Matters”); and
 
(2)  
Six (6) Business Days in the case of all other proposals.
 
(B)  
Except in the case of Article 5.12(A)(1), any Party may, by notice delivered to all Parties within two (2) Business Days of receipt of Operator’s notice, request that the proposal be decided at a meeting rather than by notice.  In such an event, that proposal shall be decided at a meeting duly called for that purpose.
 
(C)  
Except as provided in Article 10, any Party failing to communicate its vote in a timely manner shall be deemed to have voted for (in favor of) such proposal.
 
(D)  
If a meeting is not requested, then at the expiration of the appropriate time period, Operator shall give each Party a confirmation notice stating the tabulation and results of the vote.
 
5.13  
Effect of Vote
 
All decisions taken by the Operating Committee pursuant to this Article 5 shall be conclusive and binding on all the Parties, except in the following cases.
 
(A)  
If pursuant to this Article 5, a Joint Operation has been properly proposed to the Operating Committee and the Operating Committee has not approved such proposal in a timely manner, then any Party that voted in favor of such proposal shall have the right for the appropriate period specified below to propose, in accordance with Article 7, an Exclusive Operation involving operations essentially the same as those proposed for such Joint Operation.
 
(1)  
For proposals related to Urgent Operational Matters, such right shall be exercisable for twenty-four (24) hours after the time specified in Article 5.12(A)(1) has expired or after receipt of Operator’s notice given to the Parties pursuant to Article 5.13(D), as applicable.
 

 
 

 


 
(2)  
For proposals to develop a Discovery, such right shall be exercisable for ten (10) Business Days after the date the Operating Committee was required to consider such proposal pursuant to Article 5.6 or Article 5.12.
 
(3)  
For all other proposals, such right shall be exercisable for five (5) Business Days after the date the Operating Committee was required to consider such proposal pursuant to Article 5.6 or Article 5.12.
 
(B)  
If a Party voted against any proposal which was approved by the Operating Committee and which could be conducted as an Exclusive Operation pursuant to Article 7, then such Party shall have the right not to participate in the operation contemplated by such approval.  Any such Party wishing to exercise its right of non-consent must give notice of non-consent to all other Parties within five (5) Business Days (or twenty-four (24) hours for Urgent Operational Matters) following Operating Committee approval of such proposal.  If a Party exercises its right of non-consent, the Parties who were not entitled to give or did not give notice of non-consent shall be Consenting Parties as to the operation contemplated by the Operating Committee approval, and shall conduct such operation as an Exclusive Operation under Article 7; provided, however, that any Consenting Party, by notice provided to the other Parties within five (5) Business Days (or twenty-four (24) hours for Urgent Operational Matters) following the notice of non-consent given by any Non-Consenting Party, require that the Operating Committee vote again on the proposal in question. Only the Consenting Parties shall participate in such second vote of the Operating Committee, with voting rights proportional to their respective Participating Interests. If the Operating Committee approves again the contemplated operation, any Party which voted against the contemplated operation in such second vote may elect to be a Non-Consenting Party with respect to such operation, by notice of non-consent provided to all other Parties within five (5) Business Days (or twenty-four (24) hours for Urgent Operational Matters) following the Operating Committee’s second approval of such contemplated operation.
 
(C)  
If the Consenting Parties to an Exclusive Operation under Article 5.13(A) or Article 5.13(B) concur, then the Operating Committee may, at any time, pursuant to this Article 5, reconsider and approve, decide or take action on any proposal that the Operating Committee declined to approve earlier, or modify or revoke an earlier approval, decision or action.
 
(D)  
Once a Joint Operation for the drilling, Deepening, Testing, Sidetracking, Plugging Back, Completing, Recompleting, Reworking, or plugging of a well has been approved and commenced, such operation shall not be discontinued without the consent of the Operating Committee; provided, however, that such operation may be discontinued if:
 
(1)  
an impenetrable substance or other condition in the hole is encountered which in the reasonable judgment of Operator causes the continuation of such operation to be impractical; or
 

 
 

 


 
(2)  
other circumstances occur which in the reasonable judgment of Operator cause the continuation of such operation to be unwarranted.
 
On the occurrence of either of the above, Operator shall promptly notify the Parties that such operation is being discontinued pursuant to the foregoing, and any Party shall have the right to propose in accordance with Article 7 an Exclusive Operation to continue such operation.
 
ARTICLE 6.

No operations may be conducted in furtherance of the Contract except as Joint Operations under Article 5 or as Exclusive Operations under this Article 7.  No Exclusive Operation shall be conducted (other than the tie-in of Exclusive Operation facilities with existing production facilities pursuant to Article 7.9) which conflicts with a previously approved Joint Operation or with a previously approved Exclusive Operation. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Operator may reject any Exclusive Operation proposal by any Party if, in the discretion of the Operator, such proposal could reasonably be expected to interfere with the prospectivity or ability to efficiently pursue and maximize any other Joint Operation or Exclusive Operation, if Operator reasonably believes that any material technical specifications contained in the Exclusive Operation proposal are imprudent or are not supported by the known data about the formation, or if Operator reasonably believes that pursuing the Exclusive Operation presents material safety or environmental hazards or concerns.
 
(B)  
No Party may propose or conduct an Exclusive Operation under this Article 7 (1) unless and until such Party has properly exercised its right to propose an Exclusive Operation pursuant to Article 5.13, or is entitled to conduct an Exclusive Operation pursuant to Article 10; and (2) until the first well drilled in the Contract Area is drilled to its total depth (as determined by the Operator consistent with the drilling plan for that first well) as a Joint Operation.
 

 
 

 


 
(C)  
The following operations may be proposed and conducted as Exclusive Operations, subject to the terms of this Article 7:
 
(1)  
drilling and/or Testing of Exploration Wells and Appraisal Wells;

(4)  
development of a Commercial Discovery; and
 
(5)  
any operations specifically authorized to be undertaken as an Exclusive Operation under Article 10.
 
No other type of operation may be proposed or conducted as an Exclusive Operation.
 
7.2  
Procedure to Propose Exclusive Operations
 
(A)  
Subject to Article 7.1, if any Party proposes to conduct an Exclusive Operation, such Party shall give notice of the proposed operation to all Parties, other than Non-Consenting Parties who have relinquished their rights to participate in such operation pursuant to Article 7.4(B). Such notice shall specify that such operation is proposed as an Exclusive Operation and include the work to be performed, the location, the objectives, and estimated cost of such operation.
 
(B)  
Any Party entitled to receive such notice shall have the right to participate in the proposed operation.
 
(1)  
For proposals to Deepen, Test, Complete, Sidetrack, Plug Back, Recomplete or Rework related to Urgent Operational Matters, any such Party wishing to exercise such right must so notify the proposing Party and Operator within twenty-four (24) hours after receipt of the notice proposing the Exclusive Operation.
 
(2)  
For proposals to develop a Discovery, any Party wishing to exercise such right must so notify Operator and the Party proposing to develop within sixty (60) Days after receipt of the notice proposing the Exclusive Operation.
 
(3)  
For all other proposals, any such Party wishing to exercise such right must so notify the proposing Party and Operator within ten (10) Days after receipt of the notice proposing the Exclusive Operation.
 
(C)  
Failure of a Party to whom a proposal notice is delivered to properly reply within the period specified above shall constitute an election by that Party not to participate in the proposed operation.
 

 
 

 


 
(D)  
If all Parties properly exercise their rights to participate, then the proposed operation shall be conducted as a Joint Operation.  Operator shall commence such Joint Operation as promptly as practicable and conduct it with due diligence.
 
(E)  
If less than all Parties entitled to receive such proposal notice properly exercise their rights to participate, then:
 
(1)  
Immediately after the expiration of the applicable notice period set out in Article 7.2(B), Operator shall notify all Parties of the names of the Consenting Parties and the recommendation of the proposing Party as to whether the Consenting Parties should proceed with the Exclusive Operation.
 
(2)  
Concurrently, Operator shall request the Consenting Parties to specify the Participating Interest each Consenting Party is willing to bear in the Exclusive Operation.
 
(3)  
Within twenty-four (24) hours after receipt of such notice, each Consenting Party shall respond to Operator stating that it is willing to bear a Participating Interest in such Exclusive Operation equal to:
 
 
(a)
only its Participating Interest as stated in Article 3.2(A);
 
 
(b)
a fraction, the numerator of which is such Consenting Party’s Participating Interest as stated in Article 3.2(A) and the denominator of which is the aggregate of the Participating Interests of the Consenting Parties as stated in Article 3.2(A); or
 
 
(c)
the Participating Interest as contemplated by Article 7.2(E)(3)(b) plus all or any part of the difference between one hundred percent (100%) and the total of the Participating Interests subscribed by the other Consenting Parties. Any portion of such difference claimed by more than one Party shall be distributed to each claimant on a pro-rata basis.
 
(4)  
Any Consenting Party failing to advise Operator within the response period set out above shall be deemed to have elected to bear the Participating Interest set out in Article 7.2(E)(3)(b) as to the Exclusive Operation.
 
(5)  
If, within the response period set out above, the Consenting Parties subscribe less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Participating Interest in the Exclusive Operation, the Party proposing such Exclusive Operation shall be deemed to have withdrawn its proposal for the Exclusive Operation, unless within twenty-four (24) hours of the expiry of the response period set out in Article 7.2(E)(3), the proposing Party notifies the other Consenting Parties that the proposing Party shall bear the unsubscribed Participating Interest.
 

 
 

 


 
(6)  
If one hundred percent (100%) subscription to the proposed Exclusive Operation is obtained, Operator shall promptly notify the Consenting Parties of their Participating Interests in the Exclusive Operation.
 
(7)  
As soon as any Exclusive Operation is fully subscribed pursuant to Article 7.2(E)(6), Operator, subject to Article 7.12(F), shall commence such Exclusive Operation as promptly as practicable and conduct it with due diligence in accordance with this Agreement.
 
(8)  
If such Exclusive Operation has not been commenced within one hundred eighty (180) Days (excluding any extension specifically agreed by all Parties or allowed by the force majeure provisions of Article 16) after the date of the notice given by Operator under Article 7.2(E)(6), the right to conduct such Exclusive Operation shall terminate.  If any Party still desires to conduct such Exclusive Operation, notice proposing such operation must be resubmitted to the Parties in accordance with Article 5, as if no proposal to conduct an Exclusive Operation had been previously made.
 
7.3  
Responsibility for Exclusive Operations
 
(A)  
The Consenting Parties shall bear in accordance with the Participating Interests agreed under Article 7.2(E) the entire cost and liability of conducting an Exclusive Operation and shall indemnify the Non-Consenting Parties from any and all costs and liabilities incurred incident to such Exclusive Operation (including Consequential Loss and Environmental Loss) and shall keep the Contract Area free and clear of all liens and encumbrances of every kind created by or arising from such Exclusive Operation.
 
(B)  
Notwithstanding Article 7.3(A), each Party shall continue to bear its Participating Interest share of the cost and liability incident to the operations in which it participated, including plugging and abandoning and restoring the surface location, but only to the extent those costs were not increased by the Exclusive Operation.
 
7.4  
Consequences of Exclusive Operations
 
(A)  
Subject to Article 7.4(C) and Articles 7.5(E) and 7.7, if selected, each Non-Consenting Party shall be deemed to have relinquished to the Consenting Parties, and the Consenting Parties shall be deemed to own, in proportion to their respective Participating Interests in any Exclusive Operation:
 
(1)  
all of each such Non-Consenting Party’s right to participate in further operations in the well or Deepened or Sidetracked portion of a well in which the Exclusive Operation was conducted and on any Discovery made or appraised in the course of such Exclusive Operation; and
 
(2)  
all of each such Non-Consenting Party’s right pursuant to the Contract to take and dispose of Hydrocarbons produced and saved:
 

 
 

 


 
(a)  
from the well or Deepened or Sidetracked portion of a well in which such Exclusive Operation was conducted; and
 
(b)  
from any wells drilled to appraise or develop a Discovery made or appraised in the course of such Exclusive Operation.
 
(B)  
A Non-Consenting Party shall have no option to reinstate the rights it relinquished pursuant to Article 7.4(A) unless the Consenting Parties unanimously agree to permit such reinstatement under terms dictated unanimously by the Consenting Parties. Any such consent may be withheld, conditioned or delayed for any or no reason.
 
(C)  
If the Exclusive Operation is an Exploration Well in an area previously unexplored by the Parties (and outside the applicable acreage around or included in any prior Exclusive Operation) and results in a Discovery, then the Non-Consenting Parties must relinquish all of their rights to an area designated for the Discovery.  The Operator will designate the size of such area in its reasonable discretion; provided that the area will not be larger than the largest reasonable area to be associated with a common source of supply of hydrocarbons in the area to be drilled based on reasonable geophysical and geological interpretation prior to the commencement of the Exclusive Operation. Any dispute over the area designated, including any dispute over whether it overlaps with an area in which a Party claims an interest, shall be resolved by arbitration in accordance with Article 18.2 if the Parties are unable to resolve the matter through discussion and negotiation in less than thirty (30) days or, if sooner, prior to the planned commencement of drilling operations with respect to such Exclusive Operation; provided that Article 18.2(B) will be replaced with the language appearing below clause (D) below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the area to be relinquished will be reduced in size, if necessary, to include only the boundaries and areas of the applicable Zone inside the area designated for the Discovery.  For the avoidance of doubt, no disagreement regarding: (i) the size of the area to be forfeited, (ii) the identity of the expert discussed in Article 18.2(B), nor (iii) any delay by the expert in rendering a decision, will obviate any provision of this Agreement, or hinder the Consenting Party’s right to drill on schedule as planned.
 
(D)  
If the Exclusive Operation is an Appraisal Well or is Testing, Deepening or Sidetracking and results in a Discovery, then the Non-Consenting Party shall relinquish all of their rights to an area in size agreed by the Parties after good faith consideration of all relevant factors.  If the Parties are not able to agree on the size of the area to be relinquished, then the matter must be settled by binding arbitration as described in Article 18.2; provided that Article 18.2(B) will be replaced with the following:
 

 
 

 


 
“(B)           The arbitration shall be heard and determined by one (1) arbitrator, who may only select between the size and scope of the area presented by one (1) of the Parties (i.e. each Party must submit their proposal for the size of the area to be relinquished, and the arbitrator must pick one such proposal without modification).  If the Parties are not able to agree on the arbitrator expert within Five (5) Business Days after drilling commences, then the dispute will be submitted to Ryder Scott Company, who will be asked to select only one of the competing proposals, without modification.  The consenting and non-consenting Parties will share equally in any fees or expenses of the expert.  Any expert will be asked to make a determination in no more than Fifteen (15) Business Days."
 

7.5  
Order of Preference of Operations
 
(A)  
Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, if any Party desires to propose the conduct of an operation that will conflict with an existing proposal for an Exclusive Operation, such Party shall have the right exercisable for five (5) Days (or twenty-four (24) hours for Urgent Operational Matters) from receipt of the proposal for the Exclusive Operation, to deliver such Party’s alternative proposal to all Parties entitled to participate in the proposed operation.  Such alternative proposal shall contain the information required under Article 7.2(A).
 
(B)  
Each Party receiving such proposals shall elect by delivery of notice to Operator and to the proposing Parties within the appropriate response period set out in Article 7.2(B) to participate in one of the competing proposals.  Any Party not notifying Operator and the proposing Parties within the response period shall be deemed to have voted against the proposals.
 
(C)  
The proposal receiving the largest aggregate Participating Interest vote shall have priority over all other competing proposals.  In the case of a tie vote, Operator shall choose among the proposals receiving the largest aggregate Participating Interest vote.  Operator shall deliver notice of such result to all Parties entitled to participate in the operation within five (5) Days (or twenty-four (24) hours for Urgent Operational Matters).
 
(D)  
Each Party shall then have two (2) Days (or twenty-four (24) hours for Urgent Operational Matters) from receipt of such notice to elect by delivery of notice to Operator and the proposing Parties whether such Party will participate in such Exclusive Operation, or will relinquish its interest pursuant to Article 7.4(B).  Failure by a Party to deliver such notice within such period shall be deemed an election not to participate in the prevailing proposal.
 
(E)  
Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 7.4(B), if for reasons other than the encountering of granite or other practically impenetrable substance or any other condition in the hole rendering further operations impracticable, a well drilled as an Exclusive Operation fails to reach the deepest objective Zone described in the notice proposing such well, Operator shall give notice of such failure to each Non-Consenting Party who submitted or voted for an alternative proposal under this Article 7.5 to drill such well to a shallower Zone than the deepest objective Zone proposed in the notice under which such well was drilled.  Each such Non-Consenting Party shall have the option exercisable for forty-eight (48) hours
 

 
 

 

from receipt of such notice to participate for its Participating Interest share in the initial proposed Completion of such well.  Each such Non-Consenting Party may exercise such option by notifying Operator that it wishes to participate in such Completion and by paying its Participating Interest share of the cost of drilling such well to its deepest depth drilled in the Zone in which it is Completed.  All liabilities and expenses for drilling and Testing the Exclusive Well below that depth shall be for the sole account of the Consenting Parties.  If any such Non-Consenting Party does not properly elect to participate in the first Completion proposed for such well, the relinquishment provisions of Article 7.4(B) shall continue to apply to such Non-Consenting Party’s interest.
 
7.6  
Stand-By Costs
 
(A)  
When an operation has been performed, all tests have been conducted and the results of such tests furnished to the Parties, stand by costs incurred pending response to any Party’s notice proposing an Exclusive Operation for Deepening, Testing, Sidetracking, Completing, Plugging Back, Recompleting, Reworking or other further operation in such well (including the period required under Article 7.5 to resolve competing proposals) shall be charged and borne as part of the operation just completed. Any and all costs incurred subsequent to all Parties responding, or expiration of the response time permitted, whichever first occurs, shall be charged to and borne by the Parties proposing the Exclusive Operation in proportion to their Participating Interests, regardless of whether such Exclusive Operation is actually conducted.
 
(B)  
If a further operation related to Urgent Operational Matters is proposed while the drilling rig to be utilized is on location, any Party may request and receive up to five (5) additional Days after expiration of the applicable response period specified in Article 7.2(B)(1) within which to respond by notifying Operator that such Party agrees to bear any and all costs incurred during such extended response period.  Operator may require such Party to pay the estimated costs in advance as a condition to extending the response period.  If more than one Party requests such additional time to respond to the notice, costs shall be allocated between such Parties on a Day-to-Day basis in proportion to their Participating Interests.
 
7.7  
Special Considerations Regarding Deepening and Sidetracking
 
(A)  
An Exclusive Well shall not be Deepened or Sidetracked without first affording the Non-Consenting Parties in accordance with this Article 7.7 the opportunity to participate in such operation.
 
(B)  
In the event any Consenting Party desires to Deepen or Sidetrack an Exclusive Well, such Party shall initiate the procedure contemplated by Article 7.2.  If a Deepening or Sidetracking operation is approved pursuant to such provisions, and if any Non-Consenting Party to the Exclusive Well elects to participate in such Deepening or Sidetracking operation, such Non-Consenting Party’s Participating Interest share of the liabilities and expenses shall be as follows:
 
(1)  
five hundred percent (500%) of such Non-Consenting Party's pro rata Participating Interest share of all liabilities and expenses that were
 

 
 

 

incurred in any Exclusive Operation relating to the obtaining of the portion of the G & G Data which pertains to the Discovery, and that were not previously paid by such Non-Consenting Party; plus
 
(2)  
twelve hundred percent (1200%) of the Non-Consenting Party's pro rata Participating Interest share of al11iabilities and expenses that were incurred in any Exclusive Operation relating to the drilling, Deepening, Testing, Completing, Sidetracking, Plugging Back, Recompleting and Reworking of the Exploration Well which made the Discovery in which the Non-Consenting Patty desires to reinstate the rights it relinquished pursuant to Article 7.4(A), and that were not previously paid by such Non-Consenting Party; plus
 
(3)  
eight hundred percent (800%) of the Non-Consenting Party's Participating Interest share of all liabilities and expenses that were incurred in any Exclusive Operation relating to the drilling, Deepening, Testing, Completing, Sidetracking, Plugging Back, Recompleting and Reworking of the Appraisal Well(s) which delineated the Discovery in which the Non-Consenting Party desires to reinstate the rights it relinquished pursuant to Article 7.4(A), and that were not previously paid by such Non-Consenting Party,
 
Each such Non-Consenting Party who is liable for such past liabilities must pay in full the amounts in this 7.7(B) as a condition precedent to participation in the Deepening or Sidetracking Operation of the Exclusive Well, payable immediately following the Non-Consenting Parties’ election to participate.
 
7.8  
Use of Property
 
(A)  
The Parties participating in any Deepening, Testing, Completing, Sidetracking, Plugging Back, Recompleting or Reworking of any well drilled under this Agreement shall be permitted to use (free of cost) all casing, tubing and other equipment in the well that is not needed for operations by the owners of the wellbore, but the ownership of all such equipment shall remain unchanged.  On abandonment of a well in which operations with differing participation have been conducted, the Parties abandoning the well shall account for all equipment in the well to the Parties owning such equipment by tendering to them their respective Participating Interest shares of the value of such equipment less the cost of salvage.
 
(B)  
Any Party (whether owning interests in the platform or not) shall be permitted to use spare slots in a platform constructed pursuant to this Agreement for purposes of drilling Exploration Wells and/or Appraisal Wells and running tests in the Contract Area.  No Party except an owner of a platform may drill Development Wells or run production from a well (except production resulting from initial well tests) from the platform without the prior written consent of all platform owners.  If all owners of the platform participate in the drilling of a well, then no fee shall be payable under this Article 7.8(B).  Otherwise, each time a well is drilled from a platform, the Consenting Parties in the well shall pay to the owners of the platform until all wells drilled by such Parties have been plugged and abandoned a monthly fee equal to (1) that portion of the total cost of the platform (including
 

 
 

 

costs of material, fabrication, transportation and installation), divided by the number of months of useful life established for the platform under the tax law of the host country, that one well slot bears to the total number of slots on the platform plus (2) that proportionate part of the monthly cost of operating, maintaining and financing the platform that the well drilled under this Article 7.8(B) bears to the total number of wells served by such platform.  Consenting Parties who have paid to drill a well from a platform under this Article 7.8(B) shall be entitled to Deepen or Sidetrack that well for no additional charge if done prior to moving the drilling rig off of location.
 
(C)  
Spare capacity in equipment that is constructed pursuant to this Agreement and used for processing or transporting Crude Oil and Natural Gas after it has passed through primary separators and dehydrators (including treatment facilities, gas processing plants and pipelines) shall be available for use by any Party for Hydrocarbon production from the Contract Area on the terms set forth below.  All Parties desiring to use such equipment shall nominate capacity in such equipment on a monthly basis by notice to Operator at least ten (10) Days prior to the beginning of each month.  Operator may nominate capacity for the owners of the equipment if they so elect.  If at any time the capacity nominated exceeds the total capacity of the equipment, the capacity of the equipment shall be allocated in the following priority:  (1) first, to the owners of the equipment up to their respective Participating Interest shares of total capacity, (2) second, to owners of the equipment desiring to use capacity in excess of their Participating Interest shares, in proportion to the Participating Interest of each such Party and (3) third, to Parties not owning interests in the equipment, in proportion to their Participating Interests in the Agreement.  Owners of the equipment shall be entitled to use up to their Participating Interest share of total capacity without payment of a fee under this Article 7.8(C). Otherwise, each Party using equipment pursuant to this Article 7.8(C) shall pay to the owners of the equipment monthly throughout the period of use an arm’s-length fee based upon third party charges for similar services in the vicinity of the Contract Area.  If no arm’s-length rates for such services are available, then the Party desiring to use equipment pursuant to this Article 7.8(C) shall pay to the owners of the equipment a monthly fee equal to (1) that portion of the total cost of the equipment, divided by the number of months of useful life established for such equipment under the tax law of the host country, that the capacity made available to such Party on a fee basis under this Article 7.8(C) bears to the total capacity of the equipment plus (2) that portion of the monthly cost of maintaining, operating and financing the equipment that the capacity made available to such Party on a fee basis under this Article 7.8(C) bears to the total capacity of the equipment.
 
(D)  
Payment for the use of a platform under Article 7.8(B) or the use of equipment under Article 7.8(C) shall not result in an acquisition of any additional interest in the equipment or platform by the paying Parties.
 
(E)  
Parties electing to use spare capacity on platforms or in equipment pursuant to Article 7.8(B) or Article 7.8(C) shall indemnify the owners of the equipment or platform against any and all costs and liabilities incurred as a result of such use (including any Consequential Loss and Environmental Loss).
 

 
 

 


 
7.9  
Lost Production During Tie-In of Exclusive Operation Facilities
 
If, during the tie-in of Exclusive Operation facilities with the existing production facilities of another operation, the production of Hydrocarbons from such other pre-existing operations is temporarily lessened as a result, then the Consenting Parties shall compensate the parties to such existing operation for such loss of production in the following manner.  Operator shall determine the amount by which each Day’s production during the tie-in of Exclusive Operation facilities falls below the previous month’s average daily production from the existing production facilities of such operation.  The so-determined amount of lost production shall be recovered by all Parties who experienced such loss and shall be calculated by multiplying their proportionate share of lost production in accordance with their respective Participating Interest by 1.25.  Upon completion of the tie-in, all such lost production shall be recovered in full and satisfied by Operator deducting up to one hundred percent (100%) of the production from the Exclusive Operation for such duration as is necessary, prior to the Consenting Parties being entitled to receive any such production.
 
7.10  
Conduct of Exclusive Operations
 
(A)  
Each Exclusive Operation shall be carried out by the Consenting Parties acting as the Operating Committee, subject to the provisions of this Agreement applied mutatis mutandis to such Exclusive Operation and subject to the terms and conditions of the Contract.
 
(B)  
The computation of liabilities and expenses incurred in Exclusive Operations, including the liabilities and expenses of Operator for conducting such operations, shall be made in accordance with the principles set out in the Accounting Procedure.
 
(C)  
Operator shall maintain separate books, financial records and accounts for Exclusive Operations which shall be subject to the same rights of audit and examination as the Joint Account and related records, all as provided in the Accounting Procedure.  Said rights of audit and examination shall extend to each of the Consenting Parties and each of the Non-Consenting Parties so long as the latter are, or may be, entitled to elect to participate in such Exclusive Operations.
 
(D)  
Operator, if it is conducting an Exclusive Operation for the Consenting Parties, regardless of whether it is participating in that Exclusive Operation, shall be entitled to request cash advances and shall not be required to use its own funds to pay any cost and expense and shall not be obliged to commence or continue Exclusive Operations until cash advances requested have been made, and the Accounting Procedure shall apply to Operator in respect of any Exclusive Operations conducted by it.
 
(E)  
Should the submission of a Development Plan be approved in accordance with Article 6.2, or should any Party propose (but not yet have the right to commence) a development in accordance with this Article 7 where neither the Development Plan nor the development proposal call for the conduct of additional appraisal drilling, and should any Party wish to drill an additional Appraisal Well prior to development, then the Party proposing the Appraisal Well as an Exclusive
 

 
 

 

Operation shall be entitled to proceed first.  If such an Appraisal Well is produced, any Consenting Party shall own and have the right to take in kind and separately dispose of all of the Non-Consenting Party’s Entitlement from such Appraisal Well until the value received in sales to purchasers in arm-length transactions equals one hundred percent (100%) of such Non-Consenting Party’s Participating Interest shares of all liabilities and expenses that were incurred in any Exclusive Operations relating to the Appraisal Well.  Following the completion of drilling such Appraisal Well as an Exclusive Operation, the Parties may proceed with the Development Plan approved pursuant to Article 5.9, or (if applicable) the Parties may complete the procedures to propose an Exclusive Operation to develop a Discovery.  If, as the result of drilling such Appraisal Well as an Exclusive Operation, the Party or Parties proposing to develop the Discovery decide(s) not to do so, then each Non-Consenting Party who voted in favor of such Development Plan prior to the drilling of such Appraisal Well shall pay to the Consenting Party the amount such Non-Consenting Party would have paid had such Appraisal Well been drilled as a Joint Operation.
 
(F)  
If Operator is a Non-Consenting Party to an Exclusive Operation to develop a Discovery, then Operator may resign as Operator for the Exploitation Area for such Discovery.  If Operator so resigns, the Consenting Parties shall select a Consenting Party to serve as Operator for such Exclusive Operation only.  Any such resignation of Operator and appointment of a Consenting Party to serve as Operator for such Exclusive Operation shall be subject to the Parties having first obtained any necessary Government approvals.
 
ARTICLE 8.
 
DEFAULT
 
8.1  
Default and Notice
 
(A)  
Any Party that fails to:
 
(1)  
pay when due its share of Joint Account expenses (including cash advances and interest); or
 
(2)  
obtain and maintain any Security required of such Party under the Contract or this Agreement;
 
shall be in default under this Agreement (a “Defaulting Party”). Operator, or any non-defaulting Party in case Operator is the Defaulting Party (the “Notifying Party”) shall promptly give notice of such default (the “Default Notice”) to the Defaulting Party and each of the non-defaulting Parties.
 
(B)  
For the purposes of this Article 8, “Default Period” means the period beginning five (5) Business Days from the date that the Default Notice is issued in accordance with this Article 8.1 and ending when all the Defaulting Party’s defaults pursuant to this Article 8.1 have been remedied in full.
 

 
 

 


 
8.2  
Operating Committee Meetings and Data
 
(A)  
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Defaulting Party shall have no right, during the Default Period, to:

call or attend Operating Committee or subcommittee meetings;
 
(2)  
vote on any matter coming before the Operating Committee or any subcommittee;
 
(3)  
access any data or information relating to any operations under this Agreement;
 
(4)  
consent to or reject data trades between the Parties and third parties, nor access any data received in such data trades;
 
(5)  
Transfer (as defined in Article 12.1) all or part of its Participating Interest, except to non-defaulting Parties in accordance with this Article 8;

(B)  
Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Agreement, during the Default Period:
 
(1)  
unless agreed otherwise by the non-defaulting Parties, the voting interest of each non-defaulting Party shall be equal to the ratio of such non-defaulting Party’s Participating Interest to the total Participating Interests of the non-defaulting Parties;
 
(2)  
any matters requiring a unanimous vote or approval of the Parties shall not require the vote or approval of the Defaulting Party;
 
(3)  
the Defaulting Party shall be deemed to have elected not to participate in any operations that are voted upon during the Default Period, to the extent such an election would be permitted by Article 5.13 and Article 7; and
 

 
 

 


 
(4)  
the Defaulting Party shall be deemed to have approved, and shall join with the non-defaulting Parties in taking, any other actions voted on during the Default Period.
 
8.3  
Allocation of Defaulted Accounts
 
(A)  
The Party providing the Default Notice pursuant to Article 8.1 shall include in the Default Notice to each non-defaulting Party a statement of: (i) the sum of money that the non-defaulting Party shall pay as its portion of the Amount in Default; and (ii) if the Defaulting Party has failed to obtain or maintain any Security required of such Party in order to maintain the Contract in full force and effect, the type and amount of the Security the non-defaulting Parties shall post or the funds they shall pay in order to allow Operator, or (if Operator is in default) the Notifying Party, to post and maintain such Security.  Unless otherwise agreed, the obligations for which the Defaulting Party is in default shall be satisfied by the non-defaulting Parties in proportion to the ratio that each non-defaulting Party's Participating Interest bears to the Participating Interests of all non-defaulting Parties.  For the purposes of this Article 8:
 
“Amount in Default” means the Defaulting Party’s share of Joint Account expenses which the Defaulting Party has failed to pay when due pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (but excluding any interest owed on such amount); and
 
“Total Amount in Default” means the following amounts: (i) the Amount in Default; (ii) third-party costs of obtaining and maintaining any Security incurred by the non-defaulting Parties or the funds paid by such Parties in order to allow Operator to obtain or maintain Security, in accordance with Article 8.3(A)(ii); plus (iii) any interest at the Agreed Interest Rate accrued on the amount under (i) from the date this amount is due by the Defaulting Party until paid in full by the Defaulting Party and on the amount under (ii) from the date this amount is incurred by the non-defaulting Parties until paid in full by the Defaulting Party.
 
(B)  
If the Defaulting Party remedies its default in full before the Default Period commences, the Notifying Party shall promptly notify each non-defaulting Party by telephone and by email, and the non-defaulting Parties shall be relieved of their obligations under Article 8.3(A).  Otherwise, each non-defaulting Party shall satisfy its obligations under Article 8.3(A)(i) before the Default Period commences and its obligations under Article 8.3(A)(ii) within ten (10) Days following the Default Notice.  If any non-defaulting Party fails to timely satisfy such obligations, such Party shall thereupon be a Defaulting Party subject to the provisions of this Article 8.  The non-defaulting Parties shall be entitled to receive their respective shares of the Total Amount in Default payable by such Defaulting Party pursuant to this Article 8.
 
(C)  
If Operator is a Defaulting Party, then all payments otherwise payable to Operator for Joint Account costs pursuant to this Agreement shall be made to the Notifying Party instead until the default is cured or a successor Operator appointed.  The Notifying Party shall maintain such funds in a segregated account separate from its own funds and shall apply such funds to third party
 

 
 

 

 claims due and payable from the Joint Account of which it has notice, to the extent Operator would be authorized to make such payments under the terms of this Agreement.  The Notifying Party shall be entitled to bill or cash call the other Parties in accordance with the Accounting Procedure for proper third party charges that become due and payable during such period to the extent sufficient funds are not available.  When Operator has cured its default or a successor Operator is appointed, the Notifying Party shall turn over all remaining funds in the account to Operator and shall provide Operator and the other Parties with a detailed accounting of the funds received and expended during this period.  The Notifying Party shall not be liable for damages, losses, costs, expenses or liabilities arising as a result of its actions under this Article 8.3(C), except to the extent Operator would be liable under Article 4.6.
 
8.4  
Remedies
 
(A)  
During the Default Period, the Defaulting Party shall not have a right to its Entitlement, which shall vest in and be the property of the non-defaulting Parties.  Operator (or the Notifying Party if Operator is a Defaulting Party) shall be authorized to sell such Entitlement in an arm’s-length sale on terms that are commercially reasonable under the circumstances and, after deducting all costs, charges and expenses incurred in connection with such sale, pay the net proceeds to the non-defaulting Parties in proportion to the amounts they are owed by the Defaulting Party as a part of the Total Amount in Default (in payment of first the interest and then the principal) and apply such net proceeds toward the establishment of the Reserve Fund (as defined in Article 8.4(C)), if applicable, until all such Total Amount in Default is recovered and such Reserve Fund is established.  Any surplus remaining shall be paid to the Defaulting Party, and any deficiency shall remain a debt due from the Defaulting Party to the non-defaulting Parties.  When making sales under this Article 8.4(A), the non-defaulting Parties shall have no obligation to share any existing market or obtain a price equal to the price at which their own production is sold.
 
(B)  
If Operator disposes of any Joint Property or if any other credit or adjustment is made to the Joint Account during the Default Period, Operator (or the Notifying Party if Operator is a Defaulting Party) shall be entitled to apply the Defaulting Party’s Participating Interest share of the proceeds of such disposal, credit or adjustment against the Total Amount in Default (against first the interest and then the principal) and toward the establishment of the Reserve Fund (as defined in Article 8.4(C)), if applicable.  Any surplus remaining shall be paid to the Defaulting Party, and any deficiency shall remain a debt due from the Defaulting Party to the non-defaulting Parties.
 
(C)  
The non-defaulting Parties shall be entitled to apply the net proceeds received under Articles 8.4(A) and 8.4(B) toward the creation of a reserve fund (the “Reserve Fund”) in an amount equal to the Defaulting Party’s Participating Interest share of: (i) the estimated cost to abandon any wells and other property in which the Defaulting Party participated; (ii) the estimated cost of severance benefits for local employees upon cessation of operations; and (iii) any other identifiable costs that the non-defaulting Parties anticipate will be incurred in connection with the cessation of operations. Upon the conclusion of the Default Period by way of the Defaulting Party curing its Default, all amounts held in the
 

 
 

 

Reserve Fund shall be returned to the Defaulting Party previously in Default, less any and all amounts allocated under Article 8.4 and all costs and fees incurred in the enforcement of this Article 8.4, including all legal costs and fees.
 
(D)  
If a Defaulting Party fails to fully remedy all its defaults by the thirtieth (30th) Day following the date of the Default Notice, then, without prejudice to any other rights available to each non-defaulting Party to recover its portion of the Total Amount in Default, a majority in interest of the non-defaulting Parties (after excluding Affiliates of the Defaulting Party) shall have the option, exercisable at anytime thereafter during the Default Period, to require that the Defaulting Party completely withdraw from this Agreement and the Contract.  Such option shall be exercised by notice to the Defaulting Party and each non-defaulting Party.  If such option is exercised, the Defaulting Party shall be deemed to have transferred, pursuant to Article 13.6, effective on the date of the non-defaulting Party’s or Parties’ notice, its Participating Interest to the non-defaulting Parties.  Notwithstanding the terms of Article 13, in the absence of an agreement among the non-defaulting Parties to the contrary, any transfer to the non-defaulting Parties following a withdrawal pursuant to this Article 8.4(D)(1) shall be in proportion to the Participating Interests of the non-defaulting Parties.
 
(E)  
In addition to the other remedies available to the non-defaulting Parties under this Article 8 and any other rights available to each non-defaulting Party to recover its portion of the Total Amount in Default, in the event a Defaulting Party fails to remedy its default within thirty (30) Days of the Default Notice, the non-Defaulting Parties may elect to enforce a mortgage and security interest on the Defaulting Party’s Participating Interest as set forth below, subject to the Contract and the Laws / Regulations. 
 
(1)  
Each Party grants to each of the other Parties, in pro rata shares based on their relative Participating Interests, a mortgage and security interest on its Participating Interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, together with all products and proceeds derived from that Participating Interest (collectively, the “Collateral”) as security for (i) the payment of all amounts owing by such Party (including interest and costs of collection) under this Agreement; and (ii) any Security which such Party is required to provide under the Contract. 
 
(2)  
Should a Defaulting Party fail to remedy its default by the thirtieth (30th) Day following the date of the Default Notice, then, each non-defaulting Party shall have the option, exercisable at any time thereafter during the Default Period, to foreclose its mortgage and security interest against its prorata share of the Collateral by any means permitted under the Contract and the Laws / Regulations and to sell all or any part of that Collateral in public or private sale after providing the Defaulting Party and other creditors with any notice required by the Contract or the Laws / Regulations, and subject to the provisions of Article 12.   Except as may be prohibited by the Contract or the Laws / Regulations, the non-defaulting Party that forecloses its mortgage and security interest shall be entitled to become the purchaser of the Collateral sold and shall have the right to credit toward the purchase price the amount to which it is entitled under Article 8.4.   Any deficiency in the amounts received by the
 

 
 

 

foreclosing party shall remain a debt due by the Defaulting Party.  The foreclosure of mortgages and security interests by one non-defaulting Party shall neither affect the amounts owed by the Defaulting Party to the other non-defaulting Parties nor in any way limit the rights or remedies available to them.  Each Party agrees that, should it become a Defaulting Party, it waives the benefit of any appraisal, valuation, stay, extension or redemption law and any other debtor protection law that otherwise could be invoked to prevent or hinder the enforcement of the mortgage and security interest granted above.
 
(3)  
Each Party agrees to execute such memoranda, financing statements and other documents, and make such filings and registrations, as may be reasonably necessary to perfect, validate and provide notice of the mortgages and security interests granted by this Article 8.4(E). 
 
(F)  
For purposes of Articles 8.4(D) and 8.4(E), the Defaulting Party shall, without delay following any request from the non-defaulting Parties, do any act required to be done by the Laws / Regulations and any other applicable laws in order to render the transfer of its Participating Interest legally valid, including obtaining all governmental consents and approvals, and shall execute any document and take such other actions as may be necessary in order to effect a prompt and valid transfer.  The Defaulting Party shall be obligated to promptly remove any liens and encumbrances which may exist on its assigned Participating Interests.  In the event all Government approvals are not timely obtained, the Defaulting Party shall hold the assigned Participating Interest in trust for the non-defaulting Parties who are entitled to receive it.  Each Party constitutes and appoints each other Party its true and lawful attorney to execute such instruments and make such filings and applications as may be necessary to make such transfer legally effective and to obtain any necessary consents of the Government.  Actions under this power of attorney may be taken by any Party individually without the joinder of the others.  This power of attorney is irrevocable for the term of this Agreement and is coupled with an interest.  If requested, each Party shall execute a form prescribed by the Operating Committee setting forth this power of attorney in more detail.
 
(G)  
The non-defaulting Parties shall be entitled to recover from the Defaulting Party all reasonable attorneys’ fees and all other reasonable costs sustained in the collection of amounts owing by the Defaulting Party.
 
(H)  
The rights and remedies granted to the non-defaulting Parties in this Article 8 shall be cumulative, not exclusive, and shall be in addition to any other rights and remedies that may be available to the non-defaulting Parties, whether at law, in equity or otherwise.  Each right and remedy available to the non-defaulting Parties may be exercised from time to time and so often and in such order as may be considered expedient by the non-defaulting Parties in their sole discretion.
 
8.5  
Survival
 
The obligations of the Defaulting Party and the rights of the non-defaulting Parties shall survive the surrender of the Contract, abandonment of Joint Operations and termination of this Agreement.
 

 
 

 


 
8.6  
No Right of Set Off
 
Each Party acknowledges and accepts that a fundamental principle of this Agreement is that each Party pays its Participating Interest share of all amounts due under this Agreement as and when required.  Accordingly, any Party which becomes a Defaulting Party undertakes that, in respect of either any exercise by the non-defaulting Parties of any rights under or the application of any of the provisions of this Article 8, such Party hereby waives any right to raise by way of set off or invoke as a defense, whether in law or equity, any failure by any other Party to pay amounts due and owing under this Agreement or any alleged claim that such Party may have against Operator or any Non-Operator, whether such claim arises under this Agreement or otherwise.  Each Party further agrees that the nature and the amount of the remedies granted to the non-defaulting Parties hereunder are reasonable and appropriate in the circumstances.

“Discounted Net Cost” means that portion of each Party’s anticipated before tax cost of ceasing operations in accordance with the Laws / Regulations which remains after deduction of salvage value.  Such portion should be calculated at the anticipated time of ceasing operations and discounted at the Discount Rate to December 31 of the Calendar Year in question.
 
“Discounted Net Value” means the value of each Party’s estimated Entitlement which remains after payment of estimated liabilities and expenses required to win, save and transport such production to the delivery point and after deduction of estimated applicable taxes, royalties, imposts and levies on such production.  Such Entitlement shall be calculated using estimated market prices and including taxes on income, discounted at the Discount Rate to December 31 of the Calendar Year in question.  No account shall be taken of tax allowances expected to be available in respect of the costs of ceasing operations.

ARTICLE 11.
 
SURRENDER, EXTENSIONS AND RENEWALS
 
11.1  
Surrender
 
(A)  
If the Contract requires the Parties to surrender any portion of the Contract Area, Operator shall advise the Operating Committee of such requirement at least one hundred and twenty (120) Days in advance of the earlier of the date for filing irrevocable notice of such surrender or the date of such surrender.  Prior to the end of such period, the Operating Committee shall determine pursuant to Article 5 the size and shape of the surrendered area, consistent with the requirements of the Contract.  If a sufficient vote of the Operating Committee cannot be attained, then the proposal supported by a simple majority of the Participating Interests shall be adopted.  If no proposal attains the support of a simple majority of the Participating Interests, then the proposal receiving the largest aggregate Participating Interest vote shall be adopted.  In the event of a tie, Operator shall choose among the proposals receiving the largest aggregate Participating Interest vote.  The Parties shall execute any and all documents and take such other actions as may be necessary to effect the surrender.  Each Party renounces all claims and causes of action against Operator and any other Parties on account of any area surrendered in accordance with the foregoing but against its recommendation if Hydrocarbons are subsequently discovered under the surrendered area.

ARTICLE 12.
 
TRANSFER OF INTEREST OR RIGHTS
 
12.1  
Obligations
 
Subject to the requirements of the Contract, any Transfer (except Transfers pursuant to Article 7, Article 8 or Article 13) shall be effective only if it satisfies the terms and conditions of this Article 12.  Should a Transfer subject to this Article or a Change in Control occur without
 

 
 

 

satisfaction (in all material respects) by the transferor or the Party subject to the Change in Control, as applicable, of the requirements hereof, then: each other Party shall be entitled to enforce specific performance of the terms of this Article, in addition to any other remedies (including damages) to which it may be entitled.  Each Party agrees that monetary damages alone would not be an adequate remedy for the breach of any Party's obligations under this Article.
 
“Change in Control” means any direct or indirect change in Control of a Party (whether through merger, sale of shares or other equity interests, or otherwise) through a single transaction or series of related transactions, from one or more transferors to one or more transferees, in which the market value of the Party's Participating Interest represents more than fifty percent (50%) of the aggregate market value of the assets of such Party and its Affiliates that are subject to the change in Control.   For the purposes of this definition, market value shall be determined based upon the amount in cash a willing buyer would pay a willing seller in an arm's length transaction.

If a Party holds a Participating Interest of five percent (5%) or less prior to any Transfer, then such Party may only Transfer to an existing Party, unless each other Party consents in advance to a Transfer to a person or entity that is not at the time a Party, which consent may be withheld, conditioned or delayed for any or no reason.
 
(B)  
Subject to the terms of Articles 4.9 and 4.10, the Party serving as Operator shall remain Operator following Transfer of a portion of its Participating Interest. If Operator transfers all of its Participating Interest to an Affiliate, that Affiliate shall automatically become the successor Operator, provided that the transferring Operator shall remain liable for its Affiliate's performance of its obligations.
 
(C)  
Both the transferee, and, notwithstanding the Transfer, the transferring Party, shall be liable to the other Parties for the transferring Party’s Participating Interest share of any obligations (financial or otherwise) which have vested, matured or accrued under the provisions of the Contract or this Agreement prior to such Transfer.  Such obligations, shall include any proposed expenditure approved by the Operating Committee prior to the transferring Party notifying the other Parties of its proposed Transfer and shall also include costs of plugging and abandoning wells or portions of wells and decommissioning facilities in which the transferring Party participated (or with respect to which it was required to bear a share of the costs pursuant to this sentence) to the extent such costs are payable by the Parties under the Contract.
 
(D)  
A transferee shall have no rights in the Contract or this Agreement (except any notice and cure rights or similar rights that may be provided to a Lien Holder (as defined in Article 12.2(E)) by separate instrument signed by all Parties) unless and until:
 

 
 

 


 
(1)  
it expressly undertakes in an instrument reasonably satisfactory to the other Parties to perform the obligations of the transferor under the Contract and this Agreement in respect of the Participating Interest being transferred and obtains any necessary Government approval for the Transfer and furnishes any guarantees required by the Government or the Contract on or before the applicable deadlines; and
 
(2)  
except in the case of a Transfer to an Affiliate, each Party has consented in writing to such Transfer, which consent shall be denied only if the transferee fails to establish to the reasonable satisfaction of each Party its financial capability to perform its payment obligations under the Contract and this Agreement.
 
No consent shall be required under Article 12.2(D)(2) for a Transfer to an Affiliate if the transferring Party agrees in an instrument reasonably satisfactory to the other Parties to remain liable for its Affiliate’s performance of its obligations.
 
(E)  
Nothing contained in this Article 12 shall prevent a Party from Encumbering all or any undivided share of its Participating Interest to a third party (a “Lien Holder”) for the purpose of security relating to finance, provided that:
 
(1)  
such Party shall remain liable for all obligations relating to such interest;
 
(2)  
the Encumbrance shall be subject to any necessary approval of the Government expressly subordinated to the rights of the other Parties under this Agreement;
 
(3)  
such Party shall ensure that any Encumbrance shall be expressed to be without prejudice to the provisions of this Agreement; and
 
(4)  
the Lien Holder shall first enter into and deliver a subordination agreement in favor of the other Parties, in substantially the form approved by the Operating Committee in consultation with legal counsel.
 
12.3  
Change in Control
 
(A)  
A Party subject to a Change in Control shall obtain any necessary Government approval with respect to the Change in Control and furnish any replacement Security required by the Government or the Contract on or before the applicable deadlines.
 
(B)  
A Party subject to a Change in Control shall provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Operating Committee that following the Change in Control such Party shall continue to have the financial capability to satisfy its payment obligations under the Contract and this Agreement.  Should the Party that is subject to the Change in Control fail to provide such evidence as determined by the Operating Committee, any other Party, by notice to such Party, may require such Party to provide Security satisfactory to the other Parties with respect to its
 

 
 

 

Participating Interest share of any obligations or liabilities which the Parties may reasonably be expected to incur under the Contract and this Agreement during the then-current Exploration or Exploitation Period or phase of the Contract.

(B)  
The effective date of withdrawal for a withdrawing Party shall be the end of the third (3rd) calendar month following the calendar month in which the notice of withdrawal is given, provided that if all Parties elect to withdraw, the effective date of withdrawal for each Party shall be the date determined by Article 13.9.

(B)  
Any Party withdrawing under Article 11.2 or under this Article 13 shall withdraw from the entirety of the Contract Area, including all Exploitation Areas and all Discoveries made prior to such withdrawal, and thus abandon to the other Parties not joining in its withdrawal all its rights to the production generated by operations after the effective date of such withdrawal and all rights in associated Joint Property.
 
13.3

Subject to Article 13.8 and any other provision of this Agreement, a withdrawing Party shall have the right to receive its Entitlement produced through the effective date of its withdrawal.  The withdrawing Party shall be entitled to receive all information to which such Party is otherwise entitled under this Agreement until the effective date of its withdrawal.  After giving its notification of withdrawal, a Party shall not be entitled to vote on any matters coming before the Operating Committee, other than matters for which such Party has financial responsibility.
 

 
 

 


 
13.4  
Obligations and Liabilities of a Withdrawing Party
 
(A)  
A withdrawing Party shall, following its notification of withdrawal, remain liable only for its share of the following:
 
(1)  
costs of Joint Operations, and Exclusive Operations in which it has agreed to participate, that were approved by the Operating Committee or Consenting Parties as part of a Work Program and Budget (including a multi-year Work Program and Budget under Article 6.5) prior to such Party’s notification of withdrawal, regardless of when they are incurred;
 
(2)  
expenditures described in Articles 4.2(B)(13) and 13.5 related to an emergency occurring prior to the effective date of a Party’s withdrawal, regardless of when such expenditures are incurred;
 
(3)  
all other obligations and liabilities of the Parties or Consenting Parties, as applicable, with respect to acts or omissions under this Agreement prior to the effective date of such Party’s withdrawal for which such Party would have been liable, had it not withdrawn from this Agreement; and
 
(4)  
in the case of a partially withdrawing Party, any costs and liabilities with respect to Exploitation Areas, Commercial Discoveries and Discoveries from which it has not withdrawn.
 
The obligations and liabilities for which a withdrawing Party remains liable shall specifically include its share of any costs of plugging and abandoning wells or portions of wells in which it participated (or was required to bear a share of the costs pursuant to Article 13.4(A)(1)) to the extent such costs of plugging and abandoning are payable by the Parties under the Contract.  Any mortgages, liens, pledges, charges or other encumbrances which were placed on the withdrawing Party’s Participating Interest prior to such Party’s withdrawal shall be fully satisfied or released, at the withdrawing Party’s expense, prior to its withdrawal.  A Party’s withdrawal shall not relieve it from liability to the non-withdrawing Parties with respect to any obligations or liabilities attributable to the withdrawing Party under this Article 13 merely because they are not identified or identifiable at the time of withdrawal.
 
(B)  
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Party shall not be liable for any operations or expenditures it voted against (other than operations and expenditures described in Article 13.4(A)(2) or Article 13.4(A)(3)) if it sends notification of its withdrawal within five (5) Days (or within twenty-four (24) hours for Urgent Operational Matters) of the Operating Committee vote approving such operation or expenditure.

13.6  
Assignment
 
A withdrawing Party shall assign its Participating Interest free of cost to each of the non-withdrawing Parties in the proportion which each of their Participating Interests (prior to the withdrawal) bears to the total Participating Interests of all the non-withdrawing Parties (prior to the withdrawal), unless the non-withdrawing Parties agree otherwise.  The expenses associated with the withdrawal and assignments shall be borne by the withdrawing Party.
 
13.7  
Approvals
 
A withdrawing Party shall promptly join in such actions as may be necessary or desirable to obtain any Government approvals required in connection with the withdrawal and assignments.  The non-withdrawing Parties shall use reasonable endeavors to assist the withdrawing Party in obtaining such approvals.  Any penalties or expenses incurred by the Parties in connection with such withdrawal shall be borne by the withdrawing Party.  If the Government does not approve a Party’s withdrawal and assignment to the other Parties, then the withdrawing Party shall at its option either (1) retract its notice of withdrawal by notice to the other Parties and remain a Party as if such notice of withdrawal had never been sent, or (2) hold its Participating Interest in trust for the sole and exclusive benefit of the non-withdrawing Parties with the right to be reimbursed by the non-withdrawing Parties for any subsequent costs and liabilities incurred by it for which it would not have been liable, had it successfully withdrawn.
 
13.8  
Security
 
Prior to a Party withdrawing from this Agreement and the Contract pursuant to this Article 13, the withdrawing party shall provide Security satisfactory to the other Parties to satisfy any obligations or liabilities for which the withdrawing Party remains liable in accordance with Article 13.4, but which may become due after the withdrawing Party’s withdrawal, including but not limited to Security to cover the costs of an abandonment, if applicable.  Until the form of Security is approved by the non-withdrawing Parties and thereafter obtained by the withdrawing Party:
 
(A)  
the Entitlements of the withdrawing Party shall be withheld from the withdrawing Party and may be accumulated to satisfy the Security or set-off as against those costs referenced in Article 13.4; and
 
(B)  
the withdrawing Party constitutes and appoints each other non-withdrawing Party its true and lawful attorney to execute such instruments and make such filings and applications as may be necessary to make such Security legally effective and to obtain any necessary consents of the Government and other agencies.  Actions under this power of attorney may be taken by any Party individually without the joinder of the others.  This power of attorney is irrevocable for the term of this Agreement and is coupled with an interest.  If requested, each Party shall execute a form prescribed by the Operating Committee setting forth this power of attorney in more detail

14.1  
Relationship of Parties
 
The rights, duties, obligations and liabilities of the Parties under this Agreement shall be individual, not joint or collective.  It is not the intention of the Parties to create, nor shall this Agreement be deemed or construed to create, a mining or other partnership, joint venture or association or (except as explicitly provided in this Agreement) a trust.  This Agreement shall not be deemed or construed to authorize any Party to act as an agent, servant or employee for any other Party for any purpose whatsoever except as explicitly set forth in this Agreement.  In their relations with each other under this Agreement, the Parties shall not be considered fiduciaries except as expressly provided in this Agreement.
 
14.2  
Royalty
 
(A)  
The Parties other than Adira and GGR must pay to each of Adira and GGR (or their respective designees) an overriding royalty payment of 1.5% calculated as follows:
 
(1)  
On oil (including any distillate and condensate), the applicable royalty percentage is calculated before payment on any and all royalties payable to the Government of oil produced and saved from the Contract, delivery of such oil to be made free of all costs and expenses in developing and operating and all costs of production, and before all separation, dehydration, cleaning, treating, storage, and transportation costs.
 
(2)  
On gas, including casinghead gas or other gaseous substances and liquid constituents of said gas, produced from and sold or used, or for the extraction of gasoline or other products therefrom, the applicable royalty percentage is calculated before payment of any and all royalties payable to the Government, based on the market value at the well or wells of gas so produced and sold or utilized. The royalty will not bear any share of separation, dehydration, sweetening, processing, treatment, storage, transportation, and marketing costs.
 
(3)  
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if the price of any substance upon which the “royalty” is payable is regulated by any Government agency, the market value of such substance for the purpose of computing the royalty shall not exceed the price which a party may lawfully receive.
 

 
 

 


 
(4)  
Fuel oil and gas for operations (including operations on lands pooled with Contract lands), and for treating and handling the production and products therefrom (and the proportionate part of fuel oil and gas consumed in a central plant, should the assets be operated jointly with other premises through the use of such plant) shall not be deducted before the royalty is computed.
 
(B)  
Regarding any royalty payable to the Government, Operator will pay from the Joint Account all ad valorem, production, severance, gathering, and windfall profits taxes, gift tax, and any other taxes chargeable against the royalty or measured by or related to oil, gas or other hydrocarbon substances produced from the Contract and attributable to the royalty.
 
(C)  
In the event of expropriation of the Contract, Adira shall be entitled to an equitable allocation of any award or compensation collected by the Parties from the Government pursuant to administrative or legal proceedings, but only on that portion of said award or compensation in excess of each Party’s investment (net of any carried interest obligations) as of the date of expropriation and then Adira will be allocated and receive an amount equal to the royalty. The Parties will endeavor to agree on a calculation methodology to apply this Article 4.1(D) for allocation of Adira’s royalty rights following the expropriation award or compensation consistent with the above principle.
 
14.3  
Tax
 
(A) Each Party shall be responsible for reporting and discharging its own tax measured by the profit or income of the Party and the satisfaction of such Party’s share of all contract obligations under the Contract and under this Agreement.  Each Party shall protect, defend and indemnify each other Party from any and all loss, cost or liability arising from the indemnifying Party’s failure to report and discharge such taxes or satisfy such obligations.  The Parties intend that all income and all tax benefits (including deductions, depreciation, credits and capitalization) with respect to the expenditures made by the Parties hereunder will be allocated by the Government tax authorities to the Parties based on the share of each tax item actually received or borne by each Party.  If such allocation is not accomplished due to the application of the Laws / Regulations or other Government action, the Parties shall attempt to adopt mutually agreeable arrangements that will allow the Parties to achieve the financial results intended.  Operator shall provide each Party, in a timely manner and at such Party’s sole expense, with such information with respect to Joint Operations as such Party may reasonably request for preparation of its tax returns or responding to any audit or other tax proceeding.
 
(B)  
It may be advantageous (for some or all of the Parties) to restructure the ownership of the Contract to maximize tax planning and liability protection in the future.  The Parties will meet and consider tax planning opportunities (including offshore holding company arrangements) from time to time; provided that no Party will be required to incur material, additional or accelerated taxes without its express approval of any plan or reorganization.  The Operator will cause a “Joint
 

 
 

 

Operating” (“Iska Meshutefet” [phonetic spelling]) or joint venture under Israeli law to provide for the mutual benefit of all Parties with respect to the collection, payment, and reimbursement of VAT under Israel law.
 
14.4  
United States Tax Election
 
(A)  
If, for United States federal income tax purposes, this Agreement and the operations under this Agreement are regarded as a partnership and if the Parties have not agreed to form a tax partnership, each U.S. Party elects to be excluded from the application of all of the provisions of Subchapter “K”, Chapter 1, Subtitle “A” of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), to the extent permitted and authorized by Section 761(a) of the Code and the regulations promulgated under the Code.  Operator, if it is a U.S. Party, is authorized and directed to execute and file for each U.S. Party such evidence of this election as may be required by the Internal Revenue Service, including all of the returns, statements, and data required by United States Treasury Regulations Sections 1.761-2 and 1.6031(a)-1(b)(5) and shall provide a copy thereof to each U.S. Party.  However, if Operator is not a U.S. Party, the Party who holds the greatest Participating Interest among the U.S. Parties shall fulfill the obligations of Operator under this Article 14.3.  Should there be any requirement that any U.S. Party give further evidence of this election, each U.S. Party shall execute such documents and furnish such other evidence as may be required by the Internal Revenue Service or as may be necessary to evidence this election.
 
(B)  
No Party shall give any notice or take any other action inconsistent with the foregoing election.  If any income tax laws of any state or other political subdivision of the United States or any future income tax laws of the United States or any such political subdivision contain provisions similar to those in Subchapter “K”, Chapter 1, Subtitle “A” of the Code, under which an election similar to that provided by Section 761(a) of the Code is permitted, each U.S. Party shall make such election as may be permitted or required by such laws.  In making the foregoing election or elections, each U.S. Party states that the income derived by it from operations under this Agreement can be adequately determined without the computation of partnership taxable income.
 
(C)  
Unless approved by every Non-U.S. Party, no activity shall be conducted under this Agreement that would cause any Non-U.S. Party to be deemed to be engaged in a trade or business within the United States under United States income tax laws and regulations.
 
(D)  
A Non-U.S. Party shall not be required to do any act or execute any instrument which might subject it to the taxation jurisdiction of the United States.
 
(E)  
For the purposes of this Article 14.3, “U.S. Party” shall mean any Party that is subject to the income tax law of the United States in respect with operations under this Agreement.  “Non-U.S. Party” shall mean any Party that is not subject to such income tax law.

ARTICLE 18.
 
APPLICABLE LAW - DISPUTE RESOLUTION
 
18.1  
Applicable Law
 
This Agreement shall be governed by, construed, interpreted and applied in accordance with Israeli law, excluding any choice of law rules which would refer the matter to the laws of another jurisdiction.
 
18.2  
Dispute Resolution
 
(A)  
Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or in relation to or in connection with this Agreement or the operations carried out under this Agreement, including without limitation any dispute as to the construction validity, interpretation, enforceability or breach of this Agreement, shall be exclusively and finally settled by arbitration, and any Party may submit such a dispute, controversy or claim to arbitration.  The dispute resolution will be in accordance with the Commercial Rules of the London Court of International Arbitration (LCIA), as amended from time to time.
 
(B)  
The arbitration will be conducted by one arbitrator mutually agreed upon by the Parties. If the Parties are not able to agree, at any time either Party will select one arbitrator and demand that the other Party select one arbitrator.  Those two selected arbitrators will then select a third arbitrator, who will conduct the arbitration by him- or herself.  The third arbitrator will only have the power to select one of the positions, without modification, proffered by the disputing Parties.  The arbitrator will have at least Fifteen (15) years of experience in the international (non U.S.) oil and natural gas industry, and have had no material social or business dealings with any of the Parties during the Ten (10) years prior to the dispute.  If the two arbitrators selected by the Parties are not able to select
 

 
 

 

the third arbitrator within Ten (10) Days of their appointment, then the LCIA will select the third arbitrator.
 
(C)  
The Parties will pay their chosen arbitrator and split equally the cost of the third arbitrator; however the arbitrator may, in its discretion, award costs and/or attorneys’ fees to the Party deemed to be the prevailing party.
 
(D)  
The place of arbitration will be Toronto, Canada, and the proceedings will be in the English language.  The laws of Israel will be applied in any arbitration proceedings, without regard to principles of conflict of laws.
 
(E)  
A dispute will be deemed to have arisen when either Party notifies the other Party in writing to that effect.
 
(F)  
The resulting arbitral award will be final, non-appealable and binding, and judgment upon such award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.  Any monetary award issued by the arbitrator will be payable in United States Dollars.  The award shall include interest from the date of any breach or violation of this Agreement, as determined by the arbitral award, and from the date of the award until paid in full, at the Agreed Interest Rate; and
 
(G)  
It is expressly agreed that the arbitrator will have no authority to award special, indirect, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages.
 
(H)  
The Parties acknowledge that remedies at law may be inadequate to protect against breach of this Agreement.  The third arbitrator may therefore award both monetary and equitable relief, including injunctive relief and specific performance.
 
(I)  
A Party may apply to any competent judicial authority for interim or conservatory relief.  The application for such measure or for the enforcement of such measures ordered by the arbitrator will not be deemed an infringement or waiver of the agreement to arbitrate and will not affect the powers of the arbitrator.
 
(J)  
The Parties acknowledge that remedies at law may be inadequate to protect against breach of this Agreement.  The third arbitrator may therefore award both monetary and equitable relief, including injunctive relief and specific performance.
 
(K)  
A Party may apply to any competent judicial authority for interim or conservatory relief.  The application for such measure or for the enforcement of such measures ordered by the arbitrator will not be deemed an infringement or waiver of the agreement to arbitrate and will not affect the powers of the arbitrator.

(A)  
Each Party warrants that it and its Affiliates have not made, offered, or authorized and will not make, offer, or authorize with respect to the matters which are the subject of this Agreement, any payment, gift, promise or other advantage, whether directly or through any other person or entity, to or for the use or benefit of any public official (i.e., any person holding a legislative, administrative or judicial office, including any person employed by or acting on behalf of a public agency, a public enterprise or a public international organization) or any political party or political party official or candidate for office, where such payment, gift, promise or advantage would violate (i) the applicable laws of Israel; (ii) the laws of the country of incorporation or formation of such Party or such Party’s ultimate parent company and of the principal place of business of such ultimate parent company; or (iii) the principles described in the Convention on Combating Bribery of Foreign Public Officials in International Business Transactions, signed in Paris on December 17, 1997, which entered into force on February 15, 1999, and the Convention’s Commentaries.  Each Party shall defend, indemnify and hold the other Parties harmless from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, penalties, costs and expenses arising from or related to, any breach by such first Party of such warranty.  Such indemnity obligation shall survive termination or expiration of this Agreement.  Each Party shall in good time (i) respond in reasonable detail to any notice from any other Party reasonably connected with the above-stated warranty; and (ii) furnish applicable documentary support for such response upon request from such other Party.
 
(B)  
Each Party agrees to (i) maintain adequate internal controls; (ii) properly record and report all transactions; and (iii) comply with the laws applicable to it.  Each Party must rely on the other Parties’ system of internal controls, and on the adequacy of full disclosure of the facts, and of financial and other data regarding the Joint Operations undertaken under this Agreement.  No Party is in any way authorized to take any action on behalf of another Party that would result in an inadequate or inaccurate recording and reporting of assets, liabilities or any other transaction, or which would put such Party in violation of its obligations under the laws applicable to the operations under this Agreement.
 
19.2

Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or conduct by the Operator that is in accordance with the preference laws or published policies of the Government:

(B)

(B)  
If a Party wishes to issue or make any public announcement or statement regarding this Agreement or the Joint Operations, it shall not do so unless, prior to the release of the public announcement or statement, such Party furnishes all the Parties with a copy of such announcement or statement, and obtains the approval of at least two (2) Parties holding fifty percent (50%) or more of the Participating Interests not held by such announcing Party or its Affiliates; provided that, notwithstanding any failure to obtain such approval, no Party shall be prohibited from issuing or making any such public announcement or statement if it is necessary to do so in order to comply with the applicable laws, rules or regulations of any government, legal proceedings or stock exchange having jurisdiction over such Party or its Affiliates as set forth in Article 15.2.
 
19.4  
Successors and Assigns
 
Subject to the limitations on Transfer contained in Article 12, this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Parties.
 
19.5  
Waiver
 
No waiver by any Party of any one or more defaults by another Party in the performance of any provision of this Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver of any future default or defaults by the same Party, whether of a like or of a different character.  Except as expressly provided in this Agreement no Party shall be deemed to have waived, released or modified any of its rights under this Agreement unless such Party has expressly stated, in writing, that it does waive, release or modify such right.
 

 
 

 


 
19.6  
No Third Party Beneficiaries
 
Except as provided under Article 4.6(B), the interpretation of this Agreement shall exclude any rights under legislative provisions conferring rights under a contract to persons not a party to that contract.
 
19.7  
Joint Preparation
 
Each provision of this Agreement shall be construed as though all Parties participated equally in the drafting of the same.  Consequently, the Parties acknowledge and agree that any rule of construction that a document is to be construed against the drafting party shall not be applicable to this Agreement.
 
19.8  
Severance of Invalid Provisions
 
If and for so long as any provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to be judged invalid for any reason whatsoever, such invalidity shall not affect the validity or operation of any other provision of this Agreement except only so far as shall be necessary to give effect to the construction of such invalidity, and any such invalid provision shall be deemed severed from this Agreement without affecting the validity of the balance of this Agreement.

(D)  
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1.6.2, should Operator be required to pay any sums of money for the Joint Operations which were unforeseen at the time of providing the Non-Operators with said estimates of its requirements, Operator may make a written request of the Non-Operators for special advances covering the Non-Operators’ share of such payments.  Each such Non-Operator shall make its proportional special advances within 10 Days after receipt of such notice.
 
(E)  
If a Non-Operator’s advances exceed its share of cash expenditures, the next succeeding cash advance requirements, after such determination, shall be reduced accordingly.  However, if the amount of such excess advance is greater than the cash requirements for such Non-Operator, the Non-Operator may request a refund of the difference, which refund shall be made by Operator within 10 Days after receipt of the Non-Operator’s request.
 
(F)  
If, under the provisions of the Agreement, Operator is required to segregate funds received from the Parties, any interest received on such funds shall be applied against the next succeeding cash call or, if directed by the Operating Committee, distributed quarterly.  The interest thus received shall be allocated to the Parties on an equitable basis taking into consideration date of funding by each Party to the accounts in proportion to the total funding into the account.  A monthly statement summarizing receipts, disbursements, transfers to each joint bank account and beginning and ending balances thereof shall be provided by Operator to the Parties.

Operator shall endeavor to maintain funds held for the Joint Account in bank accounts at a level consistent with that required for the prudent conduct of Joint Operations.

1.7  
Adjustments.
 
Payments of any advances or billings shall not prejudice the right of any Non-Operator to protest or question the correctness thereof; provided, however, all bills and statements rendered to Non-Operators by Operator during any Calendar Year shall conclusively be presumed to be true and correct after 90 Days absent manifest error and unless within the said 90 Day period a Non-Operator takes written exception thereto and makes claim on Operator for adjustment, subject to the rights of each Party under Section 1.8 below.  Failure on the part of a Non-Operator to make claim on Operator for adjustment within such period shall establish the correctness thereof and preclude the filing of exceptions thereto or making claims for adjustment thereon.  The provisions of this paragraph shall not prevent adjustments resulting from a physical inventory of the Material as provided for in Section 6.  Operator shall be allowed to make adjustments to the Joint Account after such 90 Day period if these adjustments result from audit exceptions outside of this Accounting Procedure, third party claims, or Government or Government Oil & Gas Company requirements.  Any such adjustments shall be subject to audit within the time period specified in Section 1.8.1.

(G)  
At the conclusion of each audit, the Parties shall endeavor to settle outstanding matters expeditiously.  To this end the Parties conducting the audit will make a reasonable effort to prepare and distribute a written report to the Operator and all the Parties who participated in the audit as soon as possible and in any event within 90 Days after the conclusion of each audit.  The report shall include all claims, with supporting documentation, arising from such audit together with comments pertinent to the operation of the accounts and records.  Operator shall make a reasonable effort to reply to the report in writing as soon as possible and in any event no later than 90 Days after receipt of the report.  Should the Non-Operators consider that the report or reply requires further investigation of any item therein, the Non-Operators shall have the right to conduct further investigation in relation to such matter notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 1.7 and 1.8.1 that the period of 24 months may have expired.  However, conducting such further investigation shall not extend the 24 month period for taking written exception to and making a claim upon the Operator for all discrepancies disclosed by said audit. Such further investigations shall be commenced within 30 Days and be concluded within 60 Days after the receipt of such report or reply, as the case may be.
 
(H)  
All adjustments resulting from an audit agreed between the Operator and the Non-Operator conducting the audit shall be reflected promptly in the Joint Account by the Operator and reported to the Non-Operator(s).  If any dispute shall arise in connection with an audit, it shall be reported to and discussed by the Operating Committee, and, unless otherwise agreed by the parties to the dispute, resolved in accordance with the provisions of Article 18 of the Agreement, if the dispute involves an amount in excess of $2,000,000.  If all the parties to the dispute so agree, the adjustment(s) may be referred to an independent expert agreed to by the parties to the dispute e.g. an independent accounting firm.  At the election of the parties to the dispute, the decision of the expert will be binding upon such parties.  Unless otherwise agreed, the cost of such expert will be shared equally by all parties to the dispute.

Whenever Material is not readily obtainable at prices specified in Sections 4.1 and 4.2 because of national emergencies, strikes or other unusual causes over which Operator has no control, Operator may charge the Joint Account for the required Material at Operator’s actual cost incurred procuring such Material, in making it suitable for use, and moving it to the Contract Area, provided that notice in writing, including a detailed description of the Material required and the required delivery date, is furnished to Non-Operators of the proposed charge at least thirty (30) Days (or such shorter period as may be specified by Operator) before the Material is projected to be needed for operations and prior to billing Non-Operators for such Material the cost of which exceeds U.S. $500,000.  Each Non-Operator shall have the right, by so electing and notifying Operator within ten (10) Days (or such shorter period as may be specified by Operator) after receiving notice from Operator, to furnish in kind all or part of his share of such Material per the terms of the notice which is suitable for use and acceptable to Operator both as to quality and time of delivery.  Such acceptance by Operator shall not be unreasonably withheld.  If Material furnished is deemed unsuitable for use by Operator, all costs incurred in disposing of such Material or returning Material to owner shall be borne by the Non-Operator furnishing the same unless otherwise agreed by the Parties.  If a Non-Operator fails to properly submit an election notification within the designated period, Operator is not required to accept Material furnished in kind by that Non-Operator.  If Operator fails to submit proper notification prior to billing Non-Operators for such Material, Operator shall only charge the Joint Account on the basis of the price allowed during a “normal” pricing period in effect at time of movement.
 
3.4  
Warranty of Material Furnished by Operator.
 
Operator does not warrant the condition or fitness for the purpose intended of the Material furnished. In case defective Material is furnished by Operator for the Joint Account, credit shall not be passed to the Joint Account until adjustment has been received by Operator from the manufacturers or their agents.
 
ARTICLE 4.
 
DISPOSAL OF MATERIALS
 
4.1  
Disposal.
 
Operator shall be under no obligation to purchase the interest of Non-Operators in new or used surplus Materials.  Operator shall have the right to dispose of Materials but shall advise and secure prior agreement of the Operating Committee of any proposed disposition of Materials having an original cost to the Joint Account either individually or in the aggregate of U.S. $500,000 or more.  When Joint Operations are relieved of Material charged to the Joint Account, Operator shall advise each Non-Operator of the original cost of such Material to the Joint Account so that the Parties may eliminate such costs from their asset records.  Credits for Material sold by Operator shall be made to the Joint Account in the month in which payment is received for the Material.  Any Material sold or disposed of under this Section 5 shall be on an “as is, where is” basis without guarantees or warranties of any kind or nature.  Costs and expenditures incurred by Operator in the disposition of Materials shall be charged to the Joint Account.
 
4.2  
Material Purchased by a Party or Affiliate.
 
Proceeds received from Material purchased from the Joint Property by a Party or an Affiliate thereof shall be credited by Operator to the Joint Account, with new Material valued in the same manner as new Material under Section 4.2.1 and used Material valued in the same manner as used Material under Section 4.2.2, unless otherwise agreed by the Operating Committee.
 
4.3  
Division In Kind.
 
Division of Material in kind, if made between the Parties, shall be in proportion to their respective interests in such Material.  Each Party will thereupon be charged individually with the value (determined in accordance with the procedure set forth in Section 5.2) of the Material received or receivable by it, net of all applicable costs of transportation and handling.
 
4.4  
Sales to Third Parties.
 
Proceeds received from Material purchased from the Joint Property by third parties shall be credited by Operator to the Joint Account at the net amount collected by Operator from the buyer.  If the sales price is more than 15% less than the value determined in accordance with the procedure set forth in Section 5.2, then approval by the Operating Committee shall be required prior to the sale.  Any claims by the buyer for defective materials or otherwise shall be charged back to the Joint Account if and when paid by Operator.
 
ARTICLE 5.
 
INVENTORIES
 
5.1  
Periodic Inventories - Notice and Representation.
 
At reasonable intervals, but at least annually, inventories shall be taken by Operator of all Material held in warehouse stock on which detailed accounting records are normally maintained.  The expense of conducting periodic inventories shall be charged to the Joint Account.  Operator shall give Non-Operators written notice at least 60 Days in advance of its intention to take inventory, and Non-Operators, at their sole cost and expense, shall each be entitled to have a representative present.  The failure of any Non-Operator to be represented at such inventory shall bind such Non-Operator to accept the inventory taken by Operator.  Operator shall in any event furnish each Non-Operator with a reconciliation of overages and shortages.  Inventory adjustments to the Joint Account shall be made for overages and shortages.  Any adjustment equivalent to U.S. $100,000 or more shall be brought to the attention of the Operating Committee.
 
5.2  
Special Inventories.
 
Whenever there is a sale or change of a Participating Interest in the Agreement, a special inventory may be taken by the Operator provided the seller and/or purchaser of such interest agrees to bear all of the expense thereof.  In such cases, both the seller and the purchaser shall be entitled to be represented and shall be governed by the inventory so taken.

Our report dated March 31, 2011 contains an explanatory paragraph that states that the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and a deficit accumulated during the development stage, which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of that uncertainty.
