Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year. Certain amounts in the prior year statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentations. The statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009.

Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, EnerJex Kansas, Inc. and DD Energy, Inc. All intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

Note 2 – Going Concern

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon attaining profitable operations based on the development of resources that can be sold. We intend to use borrowings, equity and asset sales, and other strategic initiatives to mitigate the effects of our cash position, however, no assurance can be given that debt or equity financing, if and when required, will be available. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in existence.

Note 3 - Stock Options and Warrants

A summary of stock options and warrants is as follows:

	Options			Weighted Ave. Exercise Price			Warrants		Weighted Ave. Exercise Price
Outstanding March 31, 2009		438,500		$	6.30			75,000	$	3.00
Cancelled		(438,500	)		(6.30	)		-		-
Exercised		-			-			-		-
Outstanding September 30, 2009		-		$	-			75,000	$	3.00

On August 3, 2009, upon advice and recommendation by the governing, compensation and nominating committee (“GCNC”) of the Board of Directors, we exchanged all of the 438,500 outstanding stock options for 109,700 shares of twelve-month restricted common stock valued at $109,700.

Note 4 - Asset Retirement Obligation

Our asset retirement obligations relate to the abandonment of oil and natural gas wells. The amounts recognized are based on numerous estimates and assumptions, including future retirement costs, inflation rates and credit adjusted risk-free interest rates. The following shows the changes in asset retirement obligations:

Asset retirement obligation, April 1, 2009	$	803,624
Liabilities incurred during the period		4,281
Liabilities settled during the period		-
Accretion		37,396
Asset retirement obligations, September 30, 2009	$	845,301

Note 5 - Long-Term Debt and Convertible Debt

Senior Secured Credit Facility

On July 3, 2008, EnerJex, EnerJex Kansas, and DD Energy entered into a three-year $50 million Senior Secured Credit Facility (the “Credit Facility”) with Texas Capital Bank, N.A. Borrowings under the Credit Facility will be subject to a borrowing base limitation based on our current proved oil and gas reserves and will be subject to semi-annual redeterminations. A borrowing base redetermination was completed by Texas Capital Bank effective August 18, 2009. The borrowing base was determined to be $6,986,500 and called for $100,000 Monthly Borrowing Base Reductions (“MBBR”) beginning September 1, 2009. In conjunction with this redetermination, the Credit Facility with Texas Capital Bank was amended to implement a minimum interest rate of five (5.0%) and establish minimum volumes to be hedged by September 15, 2009 of not less than seventy-five percent (75%) of the proved developed producing reserves attributable to our interest in the borrowing base oil and gas properties projected to be produced. The borrowing base as well as the MBBR are scheduled to be redetermined beginning in December 2009.

The Credit Facility is secured by a lien on substantially all assets of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Credit Facility has a term of three years, and all principal amounts, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, will be due and payable in full on July 3, 2011. The Credit Facility also provides for the issuance of letters-of-credit up to a $750,000 sub-limit under the borrowing base and up to an additional $2.25 million limit not subject to the borrowing base to support our hedging program. We have borrowed all of our available borrowing base as of September 30, 2009.

Advances under the Credit Facility will be in the form of either base rate loans or Eurodollar loans. The interest rate on the base rate loans fluctuates based upon the higher of (1) the lender’s “prime rate” and (2) the Federal Funds rate plus 0.50%, plus, in either case, a margin of between 0.0% and 0.5% depending on the percent of the borrowing base utilized at the time of the credit extension. The interest rate on the Eurodollar loans fluctuates based upon the applicable Libor rate, plus a margin of 2.25% to 2.75% depending on the percent of the borrowing base utilized at the time of the credit extensionon. We may select Eurodollar loans of one, two, three and six months. A commitment fee of 0.375% on the unused portion of the borrowing base will accrue, and be payable quarterly in arrears. There was no commitment fee due at September 30, 2009.

The Credit Facility includes usual and customary affirmative covenants for credit facilities of this type and size, as well as customary negative covenants, including, among others, limitations on liens, mergers, asset sales or dispositions, payments of dividends, incurrence of additional indebtedness, and investments. The Credit Facility also requires that we, at the end of each fiscal quarter beginning with the quarter ending September 30, 2008, maintain a minimum current assets to current liabilities ratio and a minimum ratio of EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) to interest expense and at the end of each fiscal quarter beginning with the quarter ended September 30, 2008 to maintain a minimum ratio of EBITDA to senior funded debt. We were in compliance with all three technical covenants at September 30, 2009.

Additionally, Texas Capital Bank, N.A. and the holders of the debentures entered into a Subordination Agreement whereby the debentures issued on June 21, 2007 are subordinated to the Credit Facility.

Debentures

On April 11, 2007, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, Registration Rights Agreements, Senior Secured Debentures, a Pledge and Security Agreement, a Secured Guaranty, and other related agreements (the “Financing Agreements”) with the “Buyers” of a new series of senior secured debentures (the “Debentures”). Under the terms of the Financing Agreements, we agreed to sell Debentures for a total purchase price of $9.0 million. In connection with the purchase, we agreed to issue to the Buyers a total of 1,800,000 shares. The first closing occurred on April 12, 2007 with a total of $6.3 million in Debentures being sold and the remaining $2.7 million closing on June 21, 2007. Effective July 7, 2008, we redeemed an aggregate principal amount of $6.3 million of the Debentures. We also amended the remaining $2.7 million of aggregate principal Debentures to, among other things, permit the indebtedness under our Credit Facility, subordinate the security interests of the debentures to the Credit Facility, provide for the redemption of the remaining Debentures with the net proceeds from any next debt or equity offering and eliminate the covenant to maintain certain production thresholds.

The proceeds from the Debentures were allocated to the long-term debt and the stock issued based on the fair market value of each item that we calculated to be $9.0 million. Since each of the instruments had a value equal to 50% of the total, we allocated $4.5 million to stock and $4.5 million to the note. The loan discount costs of $4.5 million will accrete as interest based on the interest method over the period of issue to maturity or redemption. The amount of interest accreted for the six month period ended September 30, 2009 was $279,490. The remaining amount of interest to accrete in future periods is $316,618 as of September 30, 2009.

We incurred debt issue costs totaling $466,835. The debt issue costs are initially recorded as assets and are amortized to expense on a straight-line basis over the life of the loan. The amount expensed in the six month period ended September 30, 2009 was $23,027. The remaining debt issue costs totaling $22,902 will be expensed in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010.

The Debentures originally had a three-year term, maturing on March 31, 2010, and an interest rate equal to 10% per annum. We further amended the Debentures in June 2009 to extend the maturity date to September 30, 2010, to allow us to pay interest in either cash or payment-in-kind interest (an increase in the amount of principal due) or payment-in-kind shares (issuance of shares of common stock), and add a provision for the conversion of the debentures into shares of our common stock. The conversion price on or before May 31, 2010 is equal to $3.00 per share. From June 1, 2010 through the maturity date, assuming the Debentures have not been redeemed, the conversion price per share shall be computed as 100.0% of the arithmetic average of the weighted average price of the common stock on each of the thirty (30) consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding the conversion date.

Interest is payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of each succeeding quarter. The interest rate remains 10% per annum for cash interest payments. The payment-in-kind interest rate is equal to 12.5% per annum. If interest payments are made through payment-in-kind interest, we must issue common stock equal to and additional 2.5% of the quarterly interest payment due. As of September 30, 2009, we have recorded additional principal on the Debentures of $214,707 and common stock of $5,368.

The Debentures have no prepayment penalty so long as we maintain an effective registration statement with the Securities Exchange Commission and provided we give six (6) business days prior notice of redemption to the Buyers. During the six months ended September 30, 2009, we repurchased $450,000 of the Debentures.

Pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, as amended, between us and one of the Buyers, we were obligated to register 1,000,000 of the shares issued under the Financing Agreements. These shares were registered effective December 24, 2008.

Convertible and Other Long-Term Debt

We financed the purchase of vehicles through a bank. The notes are for seven years and the weighted average interest is 7.20% per annum. Vehicles collateralize these notes.

Long-term debt consists of the following at September 30, 2009:

Credit Facility	$	6,746,000

Debentures		2,464,707
Unaccreted discount		(316,618	)
Debentures, net of unaccreted discount		2,148,089

Vehicle notes payable		134,406
Total long-term debt		9,028,495
Less current portion		332,466
Long-term debt	$	8,696,029

On August 3, 2006, we sold a $25,000 convertible note that has an interest rate of 6% and matures August 2, 2010. The note is convertible at any time at the option of the note holder into shares of our common stock at a conversion rate of $10.00 per share.

Note 6 - Oil and Gas Properties

On April 9, 2007, we entered into a “Joint Exploration Agreement” with a shareholder, MorMeg, LLC, whereby we agreed to advance $4.0 million to a joint operating account for further development of MorMeg’s Black Oaks leaseholds in exchange for a 95% working interest in the Black Oaks Project. We will maintain our 95% working interest until payout, at which time the MorMeg 5% carried working interest will be converted to a 30% working interest and our working interest becomes 70%. Payout is generally the point in time when the total cumulative revenue from the project equals all of the project’s development expenditures and costs associated with funding. We have until December 31, 2009 to contribute additional capital toward the Black Oaks Project development. If we elect not to contribute further capital to the Black Oaks Project prior to the project’s full development while it is economically viable to do so, or if there is more than a thirty day delay in project activities due to lack of capital, MorMeg has the option to cease further joint development and we will receive an undivided interest in the Black Oaks Project. The undivided interest will be the proportionate amount equal to the amount that our investment bears to our investment plus $2.0 million, with MorMeg receiving an undivided interest in what remains.

Note 7 - Commitments and Contingencies

We have a lease agreement that expires in September 30, 2013. Future minimum payments are $36,035 for the remainder of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2010.

Note 8 - Subsequent Events

We held our annual meeting of stockholders on October 29, 2009. Stockholders voted to re-elect the current directors until the next annual meeting or until their successors are elected and qualified and to confirm the reaffirmation of Weaver & Martin LLC as our independent auditors. See Item 4.

In November 2009, we amended our secured debentures to amend the company redemption section of the debentures to allow for the retirement of shares of our common stock held by the debenture holders if we meet certain redemption payment schedules and to amend the debenture holders’ rights to participate in certain future debt or equity offerings made by us.

Pursuant to FAS 165, management has evaluated all events and transactions that have occurred subsequent to the balance sheet date and has determined that there are no additional material events which have occurred as of November 16, 2009, that would be deemed significant or require recognition or additional disclosure.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes to our financial statements included elsewhere in this report. In addition to historical financial information, the following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results and timing of selected events may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including those discussed under ITEM 1A. Risk Factors and elsewhere in this report.

Overview

Our principal strategy is to focus on the acquisition of oil and natural gas mineral leases that have existing production and cash flow. Once acquired, subject to availability of capital, we strive to implement an accelerated development program utilizing capital resources, a regional operating focus, an experienced management and technical team, and enhanced recovery technologies to attempt to increase production and increase returns for our stockholders. Our oil and natural gas acquisition and development activities are currently focused in Eastern Kansas.

Since the beginning of fiscal 2008, we have deployed approximately $12 million in capital resources to acquire and develop five operating projects and drill 179 new wells (111 producing wells, 65 water injection wells, and 3 dry holes). Our estimated total proved PV 10 (present value) of reserves as of March 31, 2009 was $10.63 million, versus $39.6 million as of March 31, 2008. We developed estimated total proved reserves to 1.3 million barrels of oil equivalent, or BOE, as of March 31, 2009. Though total estimated proved reserves were comparable at March 31, 2009 and 2008; 1.3 million and 1.4 million BOE, respectively, the PV10 declined dramatically due to the estimated average price of oil at March 31, 2009 of $42.65 versus $94.53 at March 31, 2008. Of the 1.3 million BOE of total estimated proved reserves, approximately 39% are proved developed and approximately 61% are proved undeveloped. The proved developed reserves consist of 82% proved developed producing reserves and 18% proved developed non-producing reserves.

PV10 means the estimated future gross revenue to be generated from the production of proved reserves, net of estimated production and future development and abandonment costs, using prices and costs in effect at the determination date, before income taxes, and without giving effect to non-property related expenses, discounted to a present value using an annual discount rate of 10% in accordance with the guidelines of the SEC. PV10 is a non-GAAP financial measure and generally differs from the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, because it does not include the effects of income taxes on future net revenues.

In response to economic conditions and capital market constraints, we are exploring and evaluating various strategic initiatives that would allow us to continue our plans to grow production and reserves in the mid-continent region of the United States. Initiatives include creating joint ventures to further develop current leases, restructuring current debt, as well as evaluating other options ranging from capital formation via additional debt or equity raising, to some type of business combination. We are continually evaluating oil and natural gas opportunities in Eastern Kansas and anticipate that this economic strategy would allow us to utilize our own financial assets toward the growth of our leased acreage holdings, pursue the acquisition of strategic oil and natural gas producing properties or companies and generally expand our existing operations while further diversifying risk. Subject to availability of capital, we plan to continue to bring potential acquisition and JV opportunities to various financial partners for evaluation and funding options. It is our vision to grow the business in a disciplined and well-planned manner. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in any of these respects, that the prices of oil and natural gas prevailing at the time of production will be at a level allowing for profitable production, or that we will be able to obtain additional funding at terms favorable to us to increase our currently limited capital resources.

We entered into a joint venture in June 2009 on the Brownrigg (“Brownrigg”) lease in Linn County, Kansas. The agreement with Pharyn Impact Growth Fund, LP (“Pharyn”) called for initial development funding on this lease of $700,000 on or before July 1, 2009. Through the filing date, we have received $450,000. We have suspended development activities on Brownrigg pending further payments. While we anticipate that Pharyn will fund the balance and that we will be able to complete the planned development activities, there can be no assurance that we will receive the remaining $250,000. In the event Pharyn does not fund the remainder in full, we would retain rights to the lease as well as the assets related to the funds deployed.

The board of directors has implemented a crude oil and natural gas hedging strategy that will allow management to hedge up to 80% of our net production to mitigate a majority of our exposure to changing oil prices in the intermediate term.

Recent Developments

In April and May of 2009, we repurchased a total of $450,000 of the subordinated debentures. The principal balance remaining as of September 30, 2009 is approximately $2.46 million. These debentures mature on September 30, 2010.

On August 3, 2009, upon advice and recommendation by the GCNC of EnerJex, we exchanged all of the 438,500 outstanding options to purchase shares of our common stock for shares of twelve-month restricted common stock to be issued pursuant to the terms of the EnerJex Resources, Inc. Stock Incentive Plan. All of the stock options outstanding on August 3, 2009 were exchanged for 109,700 shares of restricted common stock valued at $109,700.

Also on August 3, 2009, we awarded 211,050 shares of twelve-month restricted common stock, valued at $211,500 to be issued pursuant to the terms of the EnerJex Resources, Inc. Stock Incentive Plan for the following: 151,750 shares to employees as incentive compensation (with such shares being issued on August 4, 2010 assuming each employee remains employed by us through such date); and 59,300 shares to our named executives and independent directors as compensation related to options rescinded in the prior fiscal year.

In addition, on August 3, 2009, we issued 150,000 shares of restricted common stock (valued at $150,000) to vendors in satisfaction of certain outstanding balances payable to them and 32,000 shares of restricted common stock (valued at $32,000) to the four non-employee directors in lieu of cash compensation for board retainers for the period from July 1, 2009 through September 30, 2009.

Effective August 18, 2009, the Credit Facility with Texas Capital Bank was amended to implement a minimum interest rate of five percent (5.0%); establish minimum volumes to be hedged by September 15, 2009 of not less than seventy-five percent (75%) of the proved developed producing reserves attributable to our interest in the borrowing base oil and gas properties projected to be produced; and reduce the borrowing base to $6,986,500. Additionally, the borrowing base will be automatically reduced by $100,000 on the first day of each month by a Monthly Borrowing Base Reduction (MBBR) beginning September 1, 2009. The borrowing base as well as the MBBR are scheduled to be redetermined beginning in December 2009.

On August 25, 2009 we entered into a fixed price swap transaction under the terms of the BP ISDA for a total of 20,250 gross barrels at a price of $77.05 per barrel before transportation costs for the period beginning October 1, 2009 and ending on March 31, 2011. This transaction allowed us to comply with the minimum hedge volumes required by Texas Capital Bank and increased the weighted average price for hedged volumes to between $64.958 and $61.963 from October 1, 2009 through March 2011.

Also on August 25, 2009, we entered into an agreement with Coffeyville Resources Refining and Marketing, LLC (“Coffeyville”) to sell all our crude oil production beginning October 1, 2009 through March 31, 2011 to Coffeyville. All physical production will be sold to Coffeyville at current market prices defined as the average of the daily settlement price for light sweet crude oil reported by NYMEX for any given delivery month. All prices received are before location basis differential and oil quality adjustments.

Revenues

Oil and natural gas revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2009 were $1,394,117 compared to revenues of $1,777,656 in the three months ended September 30, 2008. This compares to oil and natural gas revenues for the six months ended September 30, 2009 of $2,789,179 and revenues of $3,467,742 in the six months ended September 30, 2008. While sales of barrels of oil were greater during the six months ended September 30, 2009, the decrease in revenues resulted from the lower average price per barrel of oil received. The average price per barrel of oil, net of transportation costs, sold during the three months ended September 30, 2009 was $81.48 compared to $98.31 during the three months ended September 30, 2008 and was $79.80 for the six months ended September 30, 2009 compared to $98.79 for the six months ended September 30, 2008. There were no natural gas sales during the three or six months ended September 30, 2009. The average price per Mcf for natural gas sales during the three months ended September 30, 2008 was $6.37 and was $7.60 for the six months ended September 30, 2008.

Direct Operating Costs

Direct operating costs for the three months ended September 30, 2009 were $430,316 compared to $816,767 for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and $864,835 compared to $1,531,300 for each of the six months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The decrease from the prior periods results from a concerted effort to curtail spending on certain oil leases as well as the elimination of operating costs on the gas project following its shut-in in October 2008. Direct costs include pumping, gauging, pulling, certain contract labor costs, and other non-capitalized expenses.

Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization

Depreciation, depletion and amortization for the three and six months ended September 30, 2009 was $289,604 and $445,895, respectively, compared to $347,859 and $718,048 for the three and six months ended September 30, 2008. The decreases were primarily a result of the lower costs of depletion per barrel of oil reserves. The rate of depletion was $12.05 per barrel for the six months ended September 30, 2009 as compared to $19.33 per barrel for the six months ended September 30, 2008. The per barrel rate of depletion is equal to the total book value of oil and gas properties plus future development costs associated with reserves divided by the net number of barrels of such reserves. The decline in the rate is directly attributed to the lower book value of the oil and gas properties at September 30, 2009 as compared to September 30, 2008 following an impairment charge of nearly $4.8 million in December of 2008.

Professional Fees

Professional fees for the three months ended September 30, 2009 were $310,455 compared to $171,083 for the three months ended September 30, 2008. This compares to professional fees of $419,139 for the six months ended September 30, 2009 and $294,785 for the same period in 2008. The increase in professional fees is due to both higher costs incurred in connection with the fiscal year end reserve evaluations performed by a new independent reserve engineer, as well as non-cash charges for restricted stock issued to non-employees for options cancelled in August 2009.

Salaries

Salaries for the three months ended September 30, 2009 were $399,254 compared to $276,939 for the three months ended September 30, 2008. The increase is primarily due to non-cash charges for restricted stock issued to employees for both options cancelled, and accrued, but un-paid employee incentives in August 2009. Additionally, salaries for the six month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 were $552,989 and $494,426, respectively.

Administrative Expense

Administrative expense for the three and six months ended September 30, 2009 were $264,714 and $455,316, compared to $557,664 in the three months ended September 30, 2008 and $836,430 in the six months ended September 30, 2008. The administrative expense in the prior period contained significant public and investor relations expenses as well as travel related costs incurred in connection with the road show for a public offering that was subsequently cancelled.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the three and six months ended September 30, 2009 was $174,727 and $353,565, whereas interest expense for the three and six months ended September 30, 2008 was $258,237 and $532,624. Interest expense was primarily related to our debentures and our Credit Facility. See Note 5 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this report.

Loan Interest Accretion

Loan interest accretion expense for the three and six months ended September 30, 2009 were $144,101 and $279,490, as compared to $2,224,554 and $2,567,379 for the three and six months ended September 30, 2008. The amount of interest accreted is based on the interest method over the period of issue to maturity or redemption. The lower costs in the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2009 as compared to September 30, 2008 results from interest on a lower amount of debentures remaining outstanding at September 30, 2009.

Gain on Repurchase of Debentures

We repurchased $450,000 of the Debentures during the six months ended September 30, 2009, resulting in a gain of $406,500.

Management Fee Revenue

Management fee revenue for the three and six months ended September 30, 2009 was $75,291 and represents revenues earned as operator on the Brownrigg joint venture project, in accordance with the terms of the joint operating agreement.

Net Income (Loss)

Net loss for the three and six months ended September 30, 2009 was $543,763 and $100,259 as compared to net loss of $2,875,447 and $3,507,250 in the three and six months ended September 30, 2008. Non-cash expenses such as depreciation and depletion as well as loan costs and accretions are significant factors contributing to the net loss in the prior periods. For the six month period ended September 30, 2008, these non-cash expenses totaled $3,419,886, an amount which is nearly equal to the entire net loss for the same period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is a measure of a company’s ability to meet potential cash requirements. We have historically met our capital requirements through debt financing, revenues from operations and the issuance of equity securities. Based upon the monthly commitment notices we have received to date, we have estimated and classified $300,000 of the borrowings outstanding under our Credit Facility as a current liability. As we may be unable to provide the necessary liquidity we need by the revenues generated from our net interests in our oil and natural gas production at current commodity prices, we are exploring various strategic initiatives and JV partnerships, as well as sales of reserves in our existing properties to finance our operations and to service our debt obligations.

We manage our exposure to commodity price fluctuations by executing derivative transactions to hedge the change in prices of our production, thereby mitigating our exposure to price declines, but these transactions will also limit our earnings potential in periods of rising commodity prices. There also is a risk that we will be required to post collateral to secure our hedging activities and this could limit our available funds for our business activities.

The following table summarizes total current assets, total current liabilities and working capital at September 30, 2009 as compared to March 31, 2009.

	September 30, 2009			March 31, 2009			Increase / (Decrease) $

Current Assets	$	825,923		$	898,941			(73,018	)

Current Liabilities	$	1,158,586		$	2,827,015			(1,668,429	)

Working Capital (deficit)	$	(332,663	)	$	(1,928,074	)		(1,595,411	)

Senior Secured Credit Facility

On July 3, 2008, EnerJex, EnerJex Kansas, and DD Energy entered into a three-year $50 million Senior Secured Credit Facility (the “Credit Facility”) with Texas Capital Bank, N.A. Borrowings under the Credit Facility will be subject to a borrowing base limitation based on our current proved oil and gas reserves and will be subject to semi-annual redeterminations. The Credit Facility is secured by a lien on substantially all assets of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Credit Facility has a term of three years, and all principal amounts, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, will be due and payable in full on July 3, 2011. The Credit Facility also provides for the issuance of letters-of-credit up to a $750,000 sub-limit under the borrowing base and up to an additional $2.25 million limit not subject to the borrowing base to support our hedging program.

Proceeds from the initial extension of credit under the Credit Facility were used: (1) to redeem our 10% debentures in an aggregate principal amount of $6.3 million plus accrued interest (the “April Debentures”), (2) for Texas Capital Bank’s acquisition of our approximately $2.0 million indebtedness to Cornerstone Bank, (3) for complete repayment of promissory notes issued to the sellers in connection with our purchase of the DD Energy project in an aggregate principal amount of $965,000 plus accrued interest, (4) to pay transaction costs, fees and expenses related to the Credit Facility, and (5) to expand our current development projects. Future borrowings may be used for the acquisition, development and exploration of oil and gas properties, capital expenditures and general corporate purposes.

Advances under the Credit Facility will be in the form of either base rate loans or Eurodollar loans. The interest rate on the base rate loans fluctuates based upon the higher of (1) the lender’s “prime rate” and (2) the Federal Funds rate plus 0.50%, plus, in either case, a margin of between 0.0% and 0.5% depending on the percent of the borrowing base utilized at the time of the credit extension, but in no event shall be less than five percent (5.0%), The interest rate on the Eurodollar loans fluctuates based upon the applicable Libor rate, plus a margin of 2.25% to 2.75% depending on the percent of the borrowing base utilized at the time of the credit extensionon, but in no event shall be less than five percent (5.0%). We may select Eurodollar loans of one, two, three and six months. A commitment fee of 0.375% on the unused portion of the borrowing base will accrue, and be payable quarterly in arrears.

The Credit Facility includes usual and customary affirmative covenants for credit facilities of this type and size, as well as customary negative covenants, including, among others, limitations on liens, mergers, asset sales or dispositions, payments of dividends, incurrence of additional indebtedness, and investments. The Credit Facility also requires that we, at the end of each fiscal quarter beginning with the quarter ending September 30, 2008, maintain minimum current assets to current liabilities ratio, a minimum ratio of EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) to interest expense, and to maintain a minimum ratio of EBITDA to senior funded debt. We were in compliance with all three technical covenants at September 30, 2009.

Additionally, Texas Capital Bank, N.A. and the holders of the debentures entered into a Subordination Agreement whereby the debentures issued on June 21, 2007 will be subordinated to the Credit Facility.

Debenture Financing

On April 11, 2007, we completed a $9.0 million private placement of senior secured debentures. In accordance with the terms of the debentures, we received $6.3 million (before expenses and placement fees) at the first closing and an additional $2.7 million (before closing fees and expenses) at the second closing on June 21, 2007. In connection with the sale of the debentures, we issued the lenders 1,800,000 shares of common stock. On July 7, 2008, we redeemed $6.3 million aggregate principal amount of our debentures. Effective July 7, 2008, we redeemed an aggregate principal amount of $6.3 million of the Debentures. We also amended the $2.7 million of aggregate principal amount of the remaining Debentures to, among other things, permit the indebtedness under our Credit Facility, subordinate the security interests of the debentures to the Credit Facility, provide for the redemption of the remaining Debentures with the net proceeds from our next debt or equity offering and eliminate the covenant to maintain certain production thresholds.

The Debentures originally had a three-year term, maturing on March 31, 2010, and an interest rate equal to 10% per annum. We further amended the Debentures in June 2009 to extend the maturity date to September 30, 2010, to allow us to pay interest in either cash or payment-in-kind interest (an increase in the amount of principal due) or payment-in-kind shares (issuance of shares of common stock), and add a provision for the conversion of the debentures into shares of EnerJex’s common stock. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of each succeeding quarter. The interest rate remains 10% per annum for cash interest payments. The payment-in-kind interest rate is equal to 12.5% per annum. If interest payments are made through payment-in-kind interest, we must issue common stock equal to and additional 2.5% of the quarterly interest payment due.

The Debentures have no prepayment penalty so long as we maintain an effective registration statement with the Securities Exchange Commission and provided we give six (6) business days prior notice of redemption to the Buyers. In April and May of 2009, we redeemed $450,000 of the Debentures for $43,500 in cash.

In connection with the Credit Facility, we entered into an agreement amending the Securities Purchase Agreement, Registration Rights Agreement, the Pledge and Security Agreement and the Senior Secured Debentures issued on June 21, 2007 (the “Debenture Agreements”), with the holders (the “Buyers”) of the debentures issued on June 21, 2007 (the “June Debentures”). Pursuant to this agreement, we, among other things, (i) redeemed the April Debentures, (ii) agreed to use the net proceeds from our next debt or equity offering to redeem the June Debentures, (iii) agreed to update the Buyers’ registration statement to sell our common stock owned by the Buyers, (iv) amended certain terms of the Debenture Agreements in recognition of the indebtedness under the Credit Facility, (v) amended the Securities Purchase Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement to remove the covenant to issue and register additional shares of common stock in the event that our oil production does not meet certain thresholds over time, and (vi) the Buyers agreed to waive all known events of default. In June 2009, we again amended the debentures to extend the maturity date to September 30, 2010, and allow us to pay interest in either cash or payment-in-kind interest (an increase in the amount of principal due) or payment-in-kind shares (issuance of shares of common stock), and add a provision for the conversion of the debentures into shares of EnerJex’s common stock. Further, in November 2009, we amended the debentures to amend the company redemption section of the debentures to allow for the retirement of shares of our common stock held by the debenture holders if we meet certain redemption payment schedules and to amend the debenture holders’ rights to participate in certain future debt or equity offerings made by us. A copy of the amendment is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.13.

Satisfaction of our cash obligations for the next 12 months

A critical component of our operating plan is the ability to obtain additional capital through additional equity and/or debt financing and working interest participants. During fiscal 2009, we were in the midst of a public equity offering when global economic conditions deteriorated and the commodity prices of oil and natural gas experienced significant declines. Our cash revenues from operations have been significantly impacted as has our ability to meet our monthly operating expenses and service our debt obligations. We are actively seeking opportunities to raise funds through a debt or equity offering. In the event we cannot obtain additional capital through other means to allow us to pursue our strategic plan, this would materially impact not only our ability to continue our desired growth and execute our business strategy, but also to continue as a going concern. There is no assurance we would be able to obtain such financing on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. Failure to do so can have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

Summary of product research and development

We do not anticipate performing any significant product research and development under our plan of operation until such time as we can raise adequate working capital to sustain our operations.

Expected purchase or sale of any significant equipment

We anticipate that we will purchase the necessary production and field service equipment required to produce oil and natural gas during our normal course of operations over the next twelve months.

Significant changes in the number of employees

At September 30, 2009, we had 14 full time employees, equal to the number of full time employees at our fiscal year ended March 31, 2009. Since November 2008, we have reduced personnel levels by 5 full time employees and 2 independent contractors in response to declining economic conditions and in an effort to reduce our operating and general expenses and cash outlay. As drilling and production activities increase or decrease, we may have to adjust our technical, operational and administrative personnel as appropriate. We are using and will continue to use the services of independent consultants and contractors to perform various professional services, particularly in the area of land services, reservoir engineering, drilling, water hauling, pipeline construction, well design, well-site monitoring and surveillance, permitting and environmental assessment when it is prudent and necessary to do so. We believe that this use of third-party service providers may enhance our ability to contain operating and general expenses, and capital costs.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our critical accounting estimates include the value our oil and gas properties, asset retirement obligations, current portion of long-term debt, and share-based payments.

Oil and Gas Properties:

The accounting for our business is subject to special accounting rules that are unique to the gas and oil industry. There are two allowable methods of accounting for oil and gas business activities: the successful efforts method and the full-cost method. We follow the full-cost method of accounting under which all costs associated with property acquisition, exploration and development activities are capitalized. We also capitalize internal costs that can be directly identified with our acquisition, exploration and development activities and do not include any costs related to production, general corporate overhead or similar activities.

Under the full-cost method, capitalized costs are amortized on a composite unit-of-production method based on proved gas and oil reserves. Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense is also based on the amount of estimated reserves. If we maintain the same level of production year over year, the depreciation, depletion and amortization expense may be significantly different if our estimate of remaining reserves changes significantly. Proceeds from the sale of properties are accounted for as reductions of capitalized costs unless such sales involve a significant change in the relationship between costs and the value of proved reserves or the underlying value of unproved properties, in which case a gain or loss is recognized. The costs of unproved properties are excluded from amortization until the properties are evaluated. We review all of our unevaluated properties quarterly to determine whether or not and to what extent proved reserves have been assigned to the properties, and otherwise if impairment has occurred. Unevaluated properties are assessed individually when individual costs are significant.

On a regular basis, we evaluate the carrying value of our gas and oil properties considering the full-cost accounting methodology. Capitalized costs, less accumulated amortization and related deferred income taxes, may not exceed an amount equal to the sum of the present value of estimated future net revenues (adjusted for cash flow hedges) less estimated future expenditures to be incurred in developing and producing the proved reserves, less any related income tax effects. This sum which may not be exceeded is referred to as the “ceiling”. In calculating future net revenues, current SEC regulations require us to utilize prices at the end of the appropriate quarterly period. Such prices are utilized except where different prices are fixed and determinable from applicable contracts for the remaining term of those contracts, including the effects of derivatives qualifying as cash flow hedges. Two primary factors impacting this test are reserve levels and current prices, and their associated impact on the present value of estimated future net revenues. Revisions to estimates of gas and oil reserves and/or an increase or decrease in prices can have a material impact on the present value of estimated future net revenues. Any excess of the net book value, less deferred income taxes, is generally written off as an expense. Under SEC regulations, the excess above the ceiling is not expensed (or is reduced) if, subsequent to the end of the period, but prior to the release of the financial statements, gas and oil prices increase sufficiently such that an excess above the ceiling would have been eliminated (or reduced) if the increased prices were used in the calculations.

The process of estimating gas and oil reserves is very complex, requiring significant decisions in the evaluation of available geological, geophysical, engineering and economic data. The data for a given property may also change substantially over time as a result of numerous factors, including additional development activity, evolving production history and a continual reassessment of the viability of production under changing economic conditions. As a result, material revisions to existing reserve estimates occur from time to time. Although every reasonable effort is made to ensure that reserve estimates reported represent the most accurate assessments possible, the subjective decisions and variances in available data for various properties increase the likelihood of significant changes in these estimates.

Asset Retirement Obligations:

The asset retirement obligation relates to the plug and abandonment costs when our wells are no longer useful. We determine the value of the liability by obtaining quotes for this service and estimate the increase we will face in the future. We then discount the future value based on an intrinsic interest rate that is appropriate for us. If costs rise more than what we have expected there could be additional charges in the future, however, we monitor the costs of the abandoned wells and we will adjust this liability if necessary.

Current Portion of Long-term Debt:

We have classified a portion of the borrowings outstanding under our Credit Facility as a current liability based upon monthly commitment reduction notices that we have received in connection with borrowing base reviews by Texas Capital Bank. Our future estimates may change as a result of, among other factors, the semi-annual borrowing base redeterminations required under the Credit Facility.

Share-Based Payments:

The value we assign to the options and warrants that we issue is based on the fair market value as calculated by the Black-Scholes pricing model. To perform a calculation of the value of our options and warrants, we determine an estimate of the volatility of our stock. We need to estimate volatility because there has not been enough trading of our stock to determine an appropriate measure of volatility. We believe our estimate of volatility is reasonable, and we review the assumptions used to determine this whenever we issue a new equity instruments. If we have a material error in our estimate of the volatility of our stock, our expenses could be understated or overstated.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168 (“FAS 168”), “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles – a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162”.The FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ (Codification) will become the source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. On the effective date of this Statement, the Codification will supersede all then-existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification will become non-authoritative. As prescribe by the FASB we adopted FAS 168, for all interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167 (“FAS 167”), “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)”. The Board’s objective in issuing this Statement is to improve financial reporting by enterprises involved with variable interest entities. The Board undertook this project to address (1) the effects on certain provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 46 (revised December 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, as a result of the elimination of the qualifying special-purpose entity concept in FASB Statement No. 166, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets, and (2) constituent concerns about the application of certain key provisions of Interpretation 46(R), including those in which the accounting and disclosures under the Interpretation do not always provide timely and useful information about an enterprise’s involvement in a variable interest entity. This Statement shall be effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. As prescribe by the FASB we anticipate adopting FAS 167, for all interim and annual reports subsequent to November 15, 2009.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 166 (“FAS 166”), “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets - an amendment to FASB Statement No. 140”. FASB’s objective in issuing this Statement is to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial statements about a transfer of financial assets; the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial performance, and cash flows; and a transferor’s continuing involvement, if any, in transferred financial assets. The Board undertook this project to address (1) practices that have developed since the issuance of FASB Statement No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities, that are not consistent with the original intent and key requirements of that Statement and (2) concerns of financial statement users that many of the financial assets (and related obligations) that have been derecognized should continue to be reported in the financial statements of transferors. As prescribe by the FASB we apply the guidance of FAS 166, where applicable effective after our first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, and to interim periods within that first annual reporting period and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter.

In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165 (“FAS 165”) “Subsequent Events”. The objective of this Statement is to establish general standards of accounting for and disclosure of, events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. In particular, this Statement sets forth: 1) The period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, 2) The circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements, 3) The disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. We have adopted FAS 165 as of June 15, 2009.

Effects of Inflation and Pricing

The oil and natural gas industry is very cyclical and the demand for goods and services of oil field companies, suppliers and others associated with the industry puts extreme pressure on the economic stability and pricing structure within the industry. Material changes in prices impact revenue stream, estimates of future reserves, borrowing base calculations of bank loans and value of properties in purchase and sale transactions. Material changes in prices can impact the value of oil and natural gas companies and their ability to raise capital, borrow money and retain personnel. We anticipate business costs and the demand for services related to production and exploration will fluctuate while the commodity prices for oil and natural gas, both remain volatile.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

Not applicable.

Item 4T. Controls and Procedures.

Our Chief Executive Officer, C. Stephen Cochennet, and Chief Financial Officer, Dierdre P. Jones, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Based on the evaluation, Mr. Cochennet and Ms. Jones concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to us (including our consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in our periodic SEC filings.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

We may become involved in various routine legal proceedings incidental to our business. However, to our knowledge as of the date of this report, there are no material pending legal proceedings to which we are a party or to which any of our property is subject.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Information regarding risk factors appears in Part I, “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” under the captions “Overview”, “Recent Developments” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in “Item 1A. RISK FACTORS” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2009. Other than as set forth below, there have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2009.

Risks Associated with our Debt Financing

Until we repay the full amount of our outstanding debentures and Credit Facility, we may continue to have substantial indebtedness, which is secured by substantially all of our assets.

On September 30, 2009, $2.46 million in debentures and approximately $6.75 million of bank loans were outstanding. Under a default situation with respect to the debentures or other secured debt, the lenders may enforce their rights as a secured party and we may lose all or a portion of our assets or be forced to materially reduce our business activities. An event of default under the Credit Facility permits Texas Capital to accelerate repayment of all amounts due and to terminate the commitments thereunder. Any event of default which results in such acceleration under the Credit Facility would also result in an event of default under our Debentures. We do not have sufficient cash resources to repay these amounts if Texas Capital accelerates its obligations under the Credit Facility. If we are unable to successfully negotiate a forbearance agreement or waiver with Texas Capital, or if Texas Capital accelerates its obligations under the Credit Facility, we may be forced to voluntarily seek bankruptcy protection.

Our substantial indebtedness could make it more difficult for us to fulfill our obligations under our Credit Facility and our debentures and, therefore, adversely affect our business.

On July 3, 2008, we entered into a three-year, Senior Secured Credit Facility providing for aggregate borrowings of up to $50 million. As of September 30, 2009, we had total indebtedness of $9.3 million, including $6.75 million of borrowings under the Credit Facility and $2.46 million of remaining debentures, as well as other notes payable totaling approximately $135,000. We had no outstanding letters of credit under the facility on September 30, 2009. Our substantial indebtedness, and the related interest expense, could have important consequences to us, including:

limiting our ability to borrow additional amounts for working capital, capital expenditures, debt service requirements, execution of our business strategy, or other general corporate purposes;

being forced to use cash flow to reduce our outstanding balance as a result of an unfavorable borrowing base redetermination;

limiting our ability to use operating cash flow in other areas of our business because we must dedicate a substantial portion of these funds to service our indebtedness;

increasing our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions;

placing us at a competitive disadvantage as compared to our competitors that have less leverage;

limiting our ability to capitalize on business opportunities and to react to competitive pressures and changes in government regulation;

limiting our ability to, or increasing the cost of, refinancing our indebtedness; and

limiting our ability to enter into marketing, hedging, optimization and trading transactions by reducing the number of counterparties with whom we can enter into such transactions as well as the volume of those transactions.

The covenants in our Credit Facility and debentures impose significant operating and financial restrictions on us.

The Credit Facility and our debentures impose significant operating and financial restrictions on us. These restrictions limit our ability and the ability of our subsidiaries, among other things, to:

incur additional indebtedness and provide additional guarantees;

pay dividends and make other restricted payments;

create or permit certain liens;

use the proceeds from the sales of our oil and natural gas properties;

use the proceeds from the unwinding of certain financial hedges;

engage in certain transactions with affiliates; and

consolidate, merge, sell or transfer all or substantially all of our assets or the assets of our subsidiaries.

The Credit Facility and our debentures also contain various affirmative covenants with which we are required to comply. We obtained a waiver of default from Texas Capital Bank on two technical covenants at March 31, 2009 and one at June 30, 2009. We were in compliance with all three technical covenants at September 30, 2009. We are taking steps in an effort to comply with these same covenants in future quarters, including but not limited to, a reduction in principal of approximately $4 million since November 2008, and the reduction of our operating and general expenses. We may be unable to comply with some or all of these covenants in the future as well. If we do not comply with these covenants and are unable to obtain waivers from our lenders, we would be unable to make additional borrowings under these facilities, our indebtedness under these agreements would be in default and could be accelerated by our lenders. In addition, it could cause a cross-default under our other indebtedness, including our debentures. If our indebtedness is accelerated, we may not be able to repay our indebtedness or borrow sufficient funds to refinance it. In addition, if we incur additional indebtedness in the future, we may be subject to additional covenants, which may be more restrictive than those to which we are currently subject.

Risks Associated with our Common Stock

We have derivative securities currently outstanding and we may issue derivative securities in the future. Exercise of the derivatives will cause dilution to existing and new shareholders.

The exercise of our outstanding warrants, and the conversion of a convertible note, will cause additional shares of common stock to be issued, resulting in dilution to our existing and future common stockholders.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

Issuances to Vendors

On August 3, 2009, the Company issued 100,000 shares of restricted common stock to C.K. Cooper & Company, LLC, valued at $100,000, in full satisfaction of C.K. Cooper’s outstanding balance payable as of the date of issuance. The Company believes that the issuance of the shares was exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 by virtue of Section 4(2) thereof.

On August 3, 2009, the Company issued Accuity Financial Inc. 50,000 shares of restricted common stock, valued at $50,000, for payment against Accuity’s outstanding balance payable. The Company believes that the issuance of the shares was exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 by virtue of Section 4(2) thereof.

Issuances to Board Members

On August 3, 2009, in an effort for the Company to preserve cash in light of deteriorated global economic conditions and the significant declines in commodity prices of oil and natural gas, each of the Company’s non-employee directors agreed to convert their board/committee retainers for the period from July 1, 2009 through September 30, 2009 into 32,000 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock. The Company believes that the issuance of the shares was exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 by virtue of Section 4(2) thereof.

Issuances pursuant to Stock Incentive Plan

On August 3, 2009, we issued a total of 109,700 shares of our common stock in exchange for 438,500 currently outstanding options to purchase shares of our common stock. The shares issued were issued pursuant to the EnerJex Resources Stock Incentive Plan and registered on the Form S-8 filed on October 20, 2008.

On August 3, 2009, we awarded a total of 151,750 shares of our common stock for 2009 incentive bonuses to our employees. Such shares shall be issued to the employees on August 4, 2010 if each employee remains employed by us through August 3, 2010. The shares were awarded pursuant to the EnerJex Resources Stock Incentive Plan and registered on the Form S-8 filed on October 20, 2008.

On August 3, 2009, we issued a total of 59,300 shares of our common stock to our named executive officers and directors for options that were previously rescinded for no consideration. The shares issued were issued pursuant to the EnerJex Resources Stock Incentive Plan and registered on the Form S-8 filed on October 20, 2008.

Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities.

Credit Facility

On July 3, 2008, we entered into a three-year $50 million Senior Secured Credit Facility (the “Credit Facility”) with Texas Capital Bank, N.A. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are subject to a borrowing base limitation based on our current proved oil and gas reserves and are subject to semi-annual redeterminations.

The Credit Facility also requires that we, at the end of each fiscal quarter beginning with the quarter ending September 30, 2008, maintain a minimum current assets to current liabilities ratio and a minimum ratio of EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) to interest expense and at the end of each fiscal quarter and to maintain a minimum ratio of EBITDA to senior funded debt. We obtained a waiver of default from Texas Capital Bank on two technical covenants at March 31, 2009 and one at June 30, 2009. We were in compliance with all three technical covenants at September 30, 2009.

During the six months ended September 30, 2009, we received Monthly Commitment Reduction notices from Texas Capital requiring $800,000 to be repaid to the bank under the Credit Facility through monthly installments. Prior to the borrowing base redetermination effective August 18, 2009, we anticipated such notices totaling $1.8 million would be required to be repaid by December 31, 2009. Following receipt of the notices, we commenced discussions with Texas Capital regarding a possible forbearance agreement or waiver, pursuant to which the bank would waive, postpone or delay the requirement to repay some or all of the anticipated Monthly Commitment Reductions, in order to afford us additional time to raise equity capital, increase production or consummate alternative financing transactions. The discussions are currently ongoing, although there is no assurance that we will be able to negotiate successfully a forbearance agreement or obtain any other waiver of compliance from the bank.

Although we anticipate the ability to make monthly payments of $100,000, which will be applied towards the borrowing base reduction; if we are unable to successfully negotiate a forbearance agreement, obtain a waiver of compliance or cure a borrowing base deficiency, an event of default under the Credit Facility will occur. An event of default under the Credit Facility permits Texas Capital to accelerate repayment of all amounts due and to terminate the commitments thereunder. We currently have approximately $7.0 million drawn under the Credit Facility. Any event of default which results in such acceleration under the Credit Facility would also result in an event of default under our Debentures, described above. We do not have sufficient cash resources to repay these amounts if Texas Capital accelerates its obligations under the Credit Facility. If we are unable to successfully negotiate a forbearance agreement or waiver with Texas Capital, or if Texas Capital accelerates its obligations under the Credit Facility, we may be forced to voluntarily seek bankruptcy protection.

The terms of the Credit Facility (including a full description of the rights and remedies of Texas Capital upon an event of default), and copies of the Texas Capital agreements related to the Credit Facility can be found in our prior filings with the SEC, including the Current Reports on Forms 8-K filed with the SEC on July 10, 2008 and November 19, 2008, which are incorporated herein by reference and in the First Amendment to the Credit Agreement included in exhibit 10.12.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

We held our annual meeting of stockholders on October 29, 2009. Stockholders voted on the following proposals:

	1.	To elect C. Stephen Cochennet, Robert G. Wonish, Daran G. Dammeyer, Darrel G. Palmer and Dr. James W. Rector to serve as our directors until the next annual meeting or until their successors are elected and qualified.;
	2.	To confirm the reaffirmation of Weaver & Martin LLC as our independent auditors.

Each proposal was approved and each share of common stock was entitled to one vote per proposal. Only stockholders of record at the close of business on September 4, 2009, were entitled to vote. The number of outstanding shares on the record date was 4,799,236 and those shares were held by approximately 1,135 stockholders.

Item 5. Other Information.

In November 2009, we amended our secured debentures to amend the company redemption section of the debentures to allow for the retirement of shares of our common stock held by the debenture holders (one a 0.5 shares for each dollar redeemed basis) if we meet certain redemption payment schedules and to amend the debenture holders’ rights to participate in certain future debt or equity offerings made by us. A copy of the amendment is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.13.
