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

General

We were organized under the laws of the State of Nevada on July 8, 2003.  We are an independent crude oil and natural gas exploration company, and we have participated in various exploration and seismic programs. 

Until fiscal 2009, our focus was on our undeveloped mineral interests and the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties. We no longer hold any interests in any mining or mineral claims.  In fiscal 2010, we began to focus on our crude oil and natural gas interests

In April 2010, we acquired working interests in a seismic exploration program as well as a drilling program in crude oil and natural gas properties located in Oklahoma, as further described below. Our present plan of operation is to continue to maintain our working interests existing crude oil and natural gas properties, while continuing to pursue other opportunities as described further below.

TeleSecurity Sciences Inc.,

We have identified, and are now negotiating to purchase up to 100% of TeleSecurity Sciences Inc., a privately-held corporation headquartered in Las Vegas, NV (“TSS”).  Under the terms of the proposed acquisition, we would acquire up to 50% of TSS through equity purchases totaling up to $15,000,000 to fund development of the imaging products of TSS.  Upon completion of the entire funding, we would acquire the balance of TSS through merger.  Full details of the transaction will be disclosed at such time as when we enter into a definitive agreement. If we are able to enter into a definitive agreement with TSS and close the transactions contemplated by the definitive agreement, we will shift our business focus to developer of advanced imaging solutions for medical and security imaging devices and systems. We cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to enter into a definitive agreement with TSS or, if we are able to enter into such agreement, that we will be able to close the transactions contemplated by the agreement.   

TSS is a developer of advanced imaging solutions for medical and security imaging devices and systems.  TSS products include automated threat recognition algorithms for Cargo, whole body and checkpoint imaging systems including liquid detection as well as electronic unpacking software for CT baggage scanners. TSS products under development include the Common Workstation that connects to all security imaging systems, a new innovative medical X-ray scanner for image guided radiotherapy of cancer, and a low-dose, low-cost CT scanner for medical screening applications. A future product concept under investigation is a next generation high-speed Electron Beam CT (EBCT) for cardiac imaging.

Crude Oil and Natural Gas Properties

“Bbl” is defined herein to mean one stock tank barrel, or 42 U.S. gallons liquid volume, used in reference to crude oil or other liquid hydrocarbons.

“Mcf” is defined herein to mean one thousand cubic feet of natural gas at standard atmospheric conditions.

Washita Bend 3D Exploration Project 

In April 2010, we acquired a 5% working interest in the Washita Bend 3D Exploration Project for a total buy-in cost of $46,250.  The project provided for the acquisition of approximately 135 miles of 3D seismic data to identify drillable prospects in a study area comprising 119,680 acres in Oklahoma.  The Washita prospect area was located in Cleveland, Garvin, McCain and Pottawatomie Counties, Oklahoma.  In May 2013, drilling commenced on the first of an anticipated 8-well Phase-I exploration program.  

Results of the Phase-1 exploration program were largely uneconomic. Of the six wells in which we participated in drilling activities five were deemed to be uneconomic. We failed to participate in the drilling of the remaining two wells in the Phase-1 program inasmuch we have forfeited our right to seismic data gathered in connection with the program.

15

During the fiscal year ended of July 31, 2014, we recorded total impairment expense of $770,631 of which $463,550 related to the relative value of seven wells worth of seismic data, forfeited due to our failure to participate in the drilling of  a total of eight wells in the Phase-I exploration program as described above. Additional impairment expense of $307,081was incurred in connection with capitalized costs exceeding ceiling test limits.

2010–1 Drilling Program

In April 2010, we acquired a 5% working interest in the 2010-1 Drilling Program located in Garvin County, Oklahoma for total buy-in costs of $39,163. Of the four wells in which we participated related to this program, three wells went on production, and we maintain a working interest in two of these wells.

Loans

On various dates in August, 2014, the Company issued 20,061,828 shares of its common stock to settle $1,063,277 in principal and accrued interest. The conversion of the notes payable into shares of our common stock has resulted in a loss on conversion of $4,629,257 related to the market value of the common stock on the dates of conversion relative to the prescribed number of shares to be issued in the conversion agreements executed by the respective note holders.

On September 8, 2014 we issued a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $88,500. Under the terms of the Convertible Note, the Company shall repay the principal amount of $88,500 plus interest at a rate of 8% per annum on June 12, 2015. We have the right to prepay the principal and accrued interest in full upon giving three trading days prior written notice by paying a premium of 15% if paid within 30 days of the issue date increasing by 5% per month to a maximum of 40% if paid within 180 days following the issue date, after which the Company has no further rights of prepayment of the Convertible Note.

At any time commencing 180 days from the date of issuance of the Convertible Note, the lender has the right to convert all or any portion of the outstanding and unpaid principal amount and interest of the Convertible Note into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price equal to 61% of the average of the lowest five closing bid prices for the Company’s common stock during the 10 trading days prior to the conversion date, subject to a limitation that the lender and its affiliates cannot at any time hold, as a result of conversion, more than 4.9% of the outstanding common stock of the Company.

The Convertible Note contains anti-dilutive provisions and restrictions on the Company completing dilutive financing or sales of all or substantially all of its assets, it also includes customary conditions, representations and warranties.

In the event that the Company defaults in the payment of any amount due under the Convertible Note, the unpaid amount shall bear interest (“Default Interest”) at 22% per annum and defaults under certain provisions of the agreement can result in additional penalties of 50% or 100% of the amount outstanding with the higher amount applicable to situations where the Company refuses or hinders the issuance of shares on conversion of the Note or any portion thereof.

Results of Operations

Crude Oil and Natural Gas

The following table sets forth summary information regarding crude oil and natural gas production, average sales prices and average production costs for the three months ended October 31, 2014. We determined the BOE using the ratio of six Mcf of natural gas to one BOE. The ratios of six Mcf of natural gas to one BOE does not assume price equivalency and, given price differentials, the price for a BOE for natural gas may differ significantly from the price for a barrel of oil.

Revenues - We recognized $8,113 in revenues during the three months ended October 31, 2014, compared with $31,258 for the three months ended October 31, 2013.  The decrease in revenue during fiscal 2015 is primarily attributable to decreased crude oil production volumes resulting primarily from the sale of our interests in a producing well, coupled with natural decline curves in wells in which we retain a working interest, offset by increases in realized oil prices.  In addition to the decreases in crude oil sales revenue were decreases in natural gas sales volumes. Decreased gas sales volumes result from the natural decline curves in wells in which we retain a working interest.

For the three months ended October 31, 2014, we incurred a net loss of $4,861,014 as compared to a net loss of $72,269 for the three months ended October 31, 2013.  The increase in net loss of $4,788,745 is primarily attributable to the loss on conversion of notes payable of $4,629,257, decreases in revenue during the period as discussed above, and increases in general and administrative expenses of $147,543, partially offset by a decrease in depletion, depletion and accretion.

Expenses - The major components of our expenses for the three months ended October 31, 2014 and 2013 are outlined in the table below:

17

During the three months ended October 31, 2014, we incurred operating expenses of $196,916 as compared to $73,182 during the three months ended October 31, 2013, resulting in an increase of $123,734.  The increase in direct costs is primarily attributable to the following:

Lease Operating Expense – Lease operating expense increased to $3,640 during the three months ended October 31, 2014 from $2,117 for the three months ended October 31, 2013. The increase is primarily attributable to increased electric charges from the operator of our wells. On a BOE basis, Lease Operating Expense increased to $38.32 per BOE from $5.47 per BOE as the result of decreased production volumes to which we would allocate recurring monthly lease operating expenses such as electric, maintenance and transportation charges.

General and Administrative Expense - Increased to $189,938 as compared to $42,395 in the corresponding prior period, related primarily to increases in consulting fees, legal expense, and directors fees. Increased consulting fees during the current period relate to ongoing activities related to our potential pending transaction with TeleSecurity Sciences Inc. and the execution of a Fiscal Advisory Agreement. Increased legal expense during the current period relates to increased utilization related to out 5-to-1 reverse stock split, adoption of 2014 Stock Incentive Plan and ongoing activities related to our potential pending transaction with TeleSecurity Sciences Inc.. Increased directors fees during the current period relate to the appointment of new officers and directors in July, 2014.

These increases were partially offset by:

Depreciation, Depletion and Accretion (“DDA”) – Decreased to $3,338 as compared to $18,170 in the corresponding prior period, DDA, decreased primarily as the result of the disposition of our interest in a producing well effective November 1, 2013 and in turn the relief of the corresponding amount of proved reserves, coupled with decreased production volumes.

Consulting Expenses - Decreases in related party consulting fees to $nil as compared to $10,500 in the corresponding period. Decreased related party consulting expense relates to the decreased utilization of certain parties whom had been classified as related in prior reporting periods.

Other Expenses – We incurred $4,672,211 in other expenses during the three months ended October 31, 2014 as compared to $30,345 during the three months ended October 31, 2013 resulting in an increase of $4,641,866.  The increase in other expenses is attributable to the loss on conversion of notes payable of $4,629,257, and derivative expense recorded on the note payable issued during the current period, partially offset by decreased interest expense due to conversion of notes payable in August 2014.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Working Capital

Working Capital - At October 31, 2014, we had cash of $6,973 and our current liabilities exceeded our current assets by $465,348, as compared to cash of $10,721 and current liabilities which exceeded our current assets by $1,417,635 at July 31, 2014.  The decrease in our working capital deficit relates primarily to the conversion of notes payable and accrued interest during the current period, as well as decreased cash balances resulting from losses incurred through operations. 

Cash Flows

18

Net Cash (Used in) Operating Activities. The changes in net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended October 31, 2014 and 2013 are attributable to our net income adjusted for non-cash charges as presented in the statements of cash flows and changes in working capital as discussed above.

Net Cash (Used in) Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended October 31, 2014 and 2013 was related to our expenditures on crude oil and natural gas properties as well as our participation in drilling and seismic programs, offset by proceeds received from the conveyance of our working interests in crude oil and natural gas properties.

Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities.  On September 8, 2014, we issued a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $88,500. Under the terms of the Convertible Note, the Company shall repay the principal amount of $88,500 plus interest at a rate of 8% per annum on June 12, 2015. We have the right to prepay the principal and accrued interest in full upon giving three trading days prior written notice by paying a premium of 15% if paid within 30 days of the issue date increasing by 5% per month to a maximum of 40% if paid within 180 days following the issue date, after which the Company has no further rights of prepayment of the Convertible Note.

We anticipate that we may be required to make additional expenditures related to our remaining ownership interests in our crude oil and natural gas properties.   As of October 31, 2014, our cash balance was $6,973, and such cash will not be sufficient to meet our ongoing operations.  The ability to draw on our loan facility with Radium had expired effective on December 31, 2011.  If we exhaust all our cash, are unable to timely arrange for new financing, or do not pay our share of potential operating program costs, we may be forced to further reduce our ownership interests in our crude oil and natural gas properties and or forfeit our rights to our acquired interests.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of October 31, 2014.

Going Concern

In its report prepared in connection with our fiscal year 2014 financial statements, our independent registered public accounting firm included an explanatory paragraph stating that, because we had an accumulated deficit of $1,583,589, a working capital deficit of $1,417,635 and a stockholders’ deficit of $1,373,419 at July 31, 2014, there was substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.  At October 31, 2014, our accumulated deficit was $6,444,603 a working capital deficit of $465,348 and our stockholder’s deficit amounted to $424,437.  Our continued existence will depend in large part upon our ability to raise sufficient additional capital, we will need to raise equity or borrow additional capital. If additional financing is not available, we will be compelled to reduce the scope of our business activities further.  If we are unable to fund our operating cash flow needs and planned capital investments, it may be necessary to sell all or a portion of our remaining interests in our crude oil and natural gas properties. These factors among others may indicate that the Company may be unable to continue in existence. Management believes that they can be successful in obtaining debt and/or equity financing which will enable the Company to continue in existence and establish itself as a going concern.

Forward Looking Statements

Certain statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as statements made by us in periodic press releases and oral statements made by our officials to analysts and shareholders in the course of presentations about the Company, constitute “forward-looking statements.”   Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward looking statements.  Such factors include, among other things: (1) the prices of crude oil and natural gas; (2) general economic and business conditions; (3) interest rate changes; (4) the relative stability of the debt and equity markets; (5) government regulations particularly those related to the natural resources industries; (6) required accounting changes; (7) disputes or claims regarding our property interests; and (8) other factors over which we have little or no control.

Not required for smaller reporting companies.

Item 4.      Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), are our controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act 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 us in the reports that we file or submit under the Act is accumulated and communicated to our Management including our President and our Chief Financial Officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Rule 15d-15 under the Exchange Act requires us to carry out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of October 31, 2014, being the date of our most recently completed fiscal year end.  This evaluation was conducted by President and Chief Financial Officer.  Based on this evaluation we have concluded that the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective since the following significant deficiency:

• There is an inherent lack of segregation of duties with respect to certain transactions involving cash and accounts payable.

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act.  Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation and fair presentation of our financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  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.

Our President and Chief Financial Officer have assessed the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting as of October 31, 2014.  In making this assessment, the criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) (1992 Version).

In conducting the evaluation, Our President and Chief Financial Officer considered advice from our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, StarkSchenkein, LLP (“StarkSchenkein”). StarkSchenkein indicates that there may be significant deficiencies in our internal controls over financial reporting.  Specifically, the following potential deficiency has been noted:

• We do not have proper segregation of duties with respect to certain transactions involving cash and accounts payable.

As a result of this deficiency in our internal controls, Our President and Chief Financial Officer concluded further that the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures may not be effective and that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective.

Our Executive Officers also considered various mitigating factors in making this determination.  Officers also noted that we are still evaluating and implementing changes in our internal controls in response to the requirements of Sarbanes Oxley §404.  During fiscal year ending July 31, 2015, we will attempt to implement appropriate changes as

20

they are identified, including changes to remediate the significant deficiencies in our internal controls. There can be no guarantee that we will be successful in making these changes as they may be considered cost prohibitive.

Changes In Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

In connection with the evaluation of our internal controls during our last fiscal quarter, officers have concluded that there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended October 31, 2014 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

None.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

The following are some of the important factors that could affect our financial performance or could cause actual results to differ materially from estimates contained in our forward-looking statements. We may encounter risks in addition to those described below.  Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us, or that we currently deem to be immaterial, may also impair or adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operation.

We have an operating deficit and have incurred losses since inception.

To date, our operations have not been profitable and we may never be able to achieve profitability.

Our future performance depends upon our ability to obtain capital to find or acquire additional oil and natural gas reserves that are economically recoverable.

Unless we successfully replace the reserves that we produce, our reserves will decline, resulting eventually in a decrease in oil and natural gas production and lower revenues and cash flows from operations.  The business of exploring for, developing or acquiring reserves is capital intensive.  Our ability to make the necessary capital investment to maintain or expand our oil and natural gas reserves is limited by our relatively small size.  Further, we may commence drilling operations on our properties and any other properties that we acquire in an effort to increase production, which would require more capital than we have available from cash flow from operations or our existing debt facilities.  In such case, we would be required to seek additional sources of financing or limit our participation in the additional drilling.  In addition, our drilling activities are subject to numerous risks, including the risk that no commercially productive oil or gas reserves will be encountered.

The successful implementation of our business plan is subject to risks inherent in the oil and gas business, which if not adequately managed could result in additional losses.

Our oil and gas operations will be subject to the economic risks typically associated with exploitation and development activities, including the necessity of making significant expenditures to locate and acquire properties and to drill development wells. In addition, the availability of drilling rigs and the cost and timing of drilling, completing and, if warranted, operating wells is often uncertain.  In conducting exploitation and development activities, the presence of unanticipated formation pressure or irregularities in formations, miscalculations or accidents may cause our exploitation, development and, if warranted, production activities to be unsuccessful.  This could result in a total loss of our investment in a particular well.  If exploitation and development efforts are unsuccessful in establishing proved reserves and development activities cease, the amounts accumulated as unproved costs will be charged against earnings as impairments.

In addition, the availability of a ready market for our oil and gas production depends on a number of factors, including the demand for and supply of oil and gas and the proximity of reserves to pipelines and other facilities. 

21

Our ability to market such production depends in substantial part on the availability and capacity of gathering systems, pipelines and processing facilities, in most cases owned and operated by third parties.  A failure to obtain such services on acceptable terms could materially harm our proposed oil and gas business.  We may be required to shut in wells for lack of a market or because of inadequacy or unavailability of pipelines or gathering system capacity.  If that occurs, we would be unable to realize revenue from those wells until arrangements are made to deliver such production to market.

Our future performance is dependent upon our ability to identify, acquire and develop oil and gas properties, the failure of which could result in under use of capital and losses.

The future performance of our oil and gas business will depend upon an ability to identify, acquire and develop oil and gas reserves that are economically recoverable.  Success will depend upon the ability to acquire working and net revenue interests in properties upon which oil and gas reserves are ultimately discovered in commercial quantities, and the ability to develop prospects that contain proven oil and gas reserves to the point of production.  Without successful acquisition, exploitation, and development activities, we will not be able to develop oil and gas reserves or generate revenues.  There are no assurances oil and gas reserves will be identified or acquired on acceptable terms, or that oil and gas deposits will be discovered in sufficient quantities to enable us to recover our exploitation and development costs or sustain our business.

The successful acquisition and development of oil and gas properties requires an assessment of recoverable reserves, future oil and gas prices and operating costs, potential environmental and other liabilities, and other factors.  Such assessments are necessarily inexact and their accuracy inherently uncertain.  In addition, no assurances can be given that our exploitation and development activities will result in the discovery of any reserves.  Operations may be curtailed, delayed or canceled as a result of lack of adequate capital and other factors, such as lack of availability of rigs and other equipment, title problems, weather, compliance with governmental regulations or price controls, mechanical difficulties, or unusual or unexpected formation pressures, and or work interruptions.  In addition, the costs of exploitation and development may materially exceed our initial estimates.

The oil and gas exploration and production industry historically is a cyclical industry and market fluctuations in the prices of oil and gas could adversely affect our business.

Prices for oil and gas tend to fluctuate significantly in response to factors beyond our control.  These factors include, but are not limited to:

Changes in commodity prices may significantly affect our capital resources, liquidity and expected operating results.  Price changes will directly affect revenues and can indirectly impact expected production by changing the amount of funds available to reinvest in exploration and development activities.  Reductions in oil and gas prices not only reduce revenues and profits, but could also reduce the quantities of reserves that are commercially recoverable.  Significant declines in prices could result in non-cash charges to earnings due to impairment.  Changes in commodity prices may also significantly affect our ability to estimate the value of producing properties for

22

acquisition and divestiture and often cause disruption in the market for oil and gas producing properties, as buyers and sellers have difficulty agreeing on the value of the properties.  Price volatility also makes it difficult to budget for and project the return on acquisitions and the development and exploitation of projects.  Commodity prices are expected to continue to fluctuate significantly in the future.

Hedging transactions may limit potential gains on increases to oil and gas prices.

We do not have any hedging positions at this time.  If we do enter into hedging transactions, they will likely be for a portion of our expected production for the purpose of reducing the risk of fluctuations in oil and gas prices.  Although these hedging transactions would be expected to provide us with some protection in the event of a decrease in oil and gas prices, they would also be expected to limit our potential gains in the event that oil and gas prices increase.  If we choose not to engage in hedging arrangements in the future, we may be more adversely affected by changes in oil and natural gas prices than our competitors, who may or may not engage in hedging arrangements.

We may encounter difficulty in obtaining equipment and services.

Higher oil and natural gas prices and increased oil and natural gas drilling activity generally stimulate increased demand and result in increased prices and unavailability for drilling rigs, crews, associated supplies, equipment and services.  While we have recently been successful in acquiring or contracting for services, we could experience difficulty obtaining drilling rigs, crews, associated supplies, equipment and services in the future.  These shortages could also result in increased costs or delays in timing of anticipated development or cause interests in oil and natural gas leases to lapse.  We cannot be certain that we will be able to implement our drilling plans or at costs that will be as estimated or acceptable to us.

Our ability to produce oil and gas from our oil and gas assets may be adversely affected by a number of factors outside of our control.

The business of exploring for and producing oil and gas involves a substantial risk of investment loss.  Drilling oil and gas wells involves the risk that the wells may be unproductive or that, although productive, the wells may not produce oil or gas in economic quantities.  Other hazards, such as unusual or unexpected geological formation pressures, fires, blowouts, loss of circulation of drilling fluids or other conditions may substantially delay or prevent completion of any well.  Adverse weather conditions can also hinder drilling operations.  A productive well may become uneconomic if excessive water or other deleterious substances are encountered that impair or prevent the production of oil or gas from the well.  In addition, production from any well may be unmarketable if it is contaminated with water or other deleterious substances. There can be no assurance that oil and gas will be produced from the properties in which we have interests.  In addition, the marketability of oil and gas that may be acquired or discovered may be influenced by numerous factors beyond our control.  These factors include the proximity and capacity of oil and gas, gathering systems, pipelines and processing equipment, market fluctuations in oil and natural gas prices, taxes, royalties, land lease tenure, allowable production volumes, and environmental protection regulations.

If we are unable to maintain our working interests in leases, our business will be adversely affected.

Our oil and gas assets are held under oil and gas leases.  A failure to meet the specific requirements of each lease may cause that lease to terminate or expire.  There are no assurances the obligations required to maintain those leases will be met and that we will be able to meet the rental obligations under federal, state and private oil and gas leases.  If we are unable to make rental payments and satisfy any other conditions on a timely basis, we may lose our rights in the properties that we may acquire.

Title deficiencies could render our leases worthless.

The existence of a material title deficiency can render a lease worthless and can result in a large expense to our business.  In acquiring oil and gas leases or undivided interests in oil and gas leases we may forgo the expense of retaining lawyers to examine the title to the oil or gas interest to be placed under lease or already placed under lease.  Instead, we may rely upon the judgment of oil and gas landmen who perform the field work in examining records in

23

the appropriate governmental office before attempting to place under lease specific oil or gas interest. This is customary practice in the oil and gas industry.  As a result, we may be unaware of deficiencies in the marketability of the title to the lease.  Such deficiencies could render the lease worthless.

If we fail to maintain adequate operating insurance, our business could be materially and adversely affected.

Our oil and gas operations are subject to risks inherent in the oil and gas industry, such as blowouts, cratering, explosions, uncontrollable flows of oil, gas or well fluids, fires, pollution, earthquakes and other environmental risks.  These risks could result in substantial losses due to injury and loss of life, severe damage to and destruction of property and equipment, pollution and other environmental damage, and suspension of operations.  We could be liable for environmental damages caused by previous property owners.  As a result, substantial liabilities to third parties or governmental entities may be incurred, the payment of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.  Any prospective drilling contractor or operator which we hire will be required to maintain insurance of various types to cover its operations with policy limits and retention liability customary in the industry.  We maintain well control, re-drill, environmental cleanup, and liability insurance on all of our field production and future drilling operations.  However, the occurrence of a significant adverse event on such prospects that would happen to be not fully covered by insurance could result in the loss of all or part of our investment in a particular prospect which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Complying with environmental and other government regulations could be costly and could negatively impact prospective production.

The oil and gas business is governed by numerous laws and regulations at various levels of government.  These laws and regulations govern the operation and maintenance of our facilities, the discharge of materials into the environment and other environmental protection issues.  Such laws and regulations may, among other potential consequences, require that we acquire permits before commencing drilling and restrict the substances that can be released into the environment with drilling and production activities.  Under these laws and regulations, we could be liable for personal injury, clean-up costs and other environmental and property damages, as well as administrative, civil and criminal penalties.  Prior to commencement of drilling operations, we may secure limited insurance coverage for sudden and accidental environmental damages as well as environmental damage that occurs over time.  However, we do not believe that insurance coverage for the full potential liability of environmental damages is available at a reasonable cost.  Accordingly, we could be liable, or could be required to cease production on properties, if environmental damage occurs.

The costs of complying with environmental laws and regulations in the future may harm our business.  Furthermore, future changes in environmental laws and regulations could occur, resulting in stricter standards and enforcement, larger fines and liability, and increased capital expenditures and operating costs, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

The oil and gas industry is highly competitive, and we may not have sufficient resources to compete effectively.

The oil and gas industry is highly competitive.  We will be competing with oil and natural gas companies and other individual producers and operators, many of which have longer operating histories and substantially greater financial and other resources than it does, as well as companies in other industries supplying energy, fuel and other needs to consumers.  Larger competitors, by reason of their size and relative financial strength, can more easily access capital markets than we can and may enjoy a competitive advantage in the recruitment of qualified personnel.  They may be able to absorb the burden of any changes in laws and regulation in the jurisdictions in which we do business and handle longer periods of reduced prices for oil and gas more easily than we can.  Competitors may be able to pay more for oil and gas leases and properties and may be able to define, evaluate, bid for and purchase a greater number of leases and properties than we can.  Further, these companies may enjoy technological advantages and may be able to implement new technologies more rapidly than we can.  Our ability to acquire oil and gas properties will depend upon its ability to conduct efficient operations, evaluate and select suitable properties, implement advanced technologies and consummate transactions in a highly competitive environment.

We have never paid dividends and do not intend to pay any in the foreseeable future, which may delay or prevent recovery of your investment.

We have never paid any cash dividends and currently do not intend to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future.  If we do not pay dividends, this may delay or prevent recovery of your investment.  To the extent that we require additional funding currently not provided for in our financing plan, it is possible that our funding sources might prohibit the payment of dividends.

The trading price of our common stock may be volatile, with the result that an investor may not be able to sell any shares acquired at a price equal to or greater than the price paid by the investor.

Our common stock is quoted on the OTCQB under the symbol "HMLA.”  Companies quoted on the OTCQB have traditionally experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations.  In addition, our stock price may be adversely affected by factors that are unrelated or disproportionate to our operating performance.  Market fluctuations, as well as general economic, political and market conditions such as recessions, interest rates or international currency fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.  As a result of this potential price and volume volatility, an investor may have difficulty selling any of our common stock that they acquire that a price equal or greater than the price paid by the investor.

Because our stock is a penny stock, stockholders will be more limited in their ability to sell their stock.

The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks.  Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or quotation system.

Because our securities constitute "penny stocks" within the meaning of the rules, the rules apply to us and to our securities.  The rules may further affect the ability of owners of shares to sell our securities in any market that might develop for them.  As long as the trading price of our common stock is less than $5.00 per share, the common stock will be subject to Rule 15g-9 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”).  The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, that:

The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with: (a) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; (b) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; (c) the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and (d) a monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules; the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitably statement.  These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our stock.
