ITEM 1.
BUSINESS.
 
General
 
We were incorporated on November 20, 2006 in Nevada.
 
Until May 2012 we were an exploration stage company engaged in the acquisition and exploration of oil, gas and minerals. In connection with the share exchange that occurred in May 2012, we expanded our operations to include oil and gas exploration. We primarily concentrate on the acquisition of hydrocarbon leases, interests and properties in the Permian Basin and the Bend Arch-Fort Worth Basin. Currently, we hold a 100% interest in two mineral properties that we call the “Blue Jack Property” and the “Minnie Claim”. The Blue Jack Property is comprised of 10 mineral claims covering approximately 206 acres located in Humboldt County, Nevada. The Minnie Claim covers an area of 20 acres, located in the Leecher Creek Mining Division, Washington State. We plan to focus our resources on the (i) Blue Jack Property in order to assess whether it possesses mineral deposits of gold, silver, copper and rare earth minerals capable of commercial extraction and (ii) acquiring oil and gas properties. To date, we have not acquired any oil or gas leases due to lack of capital.
 
In September 2011, we allowed our option to acquire up to a 60% interest in the Frances Property located in the Vancouver Mining Division, British Columbia to lapse. We made this determination in order to focus our financial resources on implementing an exploration program on the Blue Jack Property.
 
In November 2011, we completed a preliminary rock sampling program on the Blue Jack Property. The results of this initial program indicated that the Blue Jack Property contained anomalous values of rare earth minerals. Based on these results, we plan to commence Phase I of the Blue Jack exploration program in Spring 2012. See “Properties – Blue Jack Property – Exploration Program.”

On May 21, 2012, we completed the acquisition of Pure Spectrum Oil, Inc. (“Pure Spectrum”), a company incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada, in the United States of America, pursuant to which we acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Pure Spectrum from its shareholders in exchange for the issuance of a total of 4,000,000 shares of our common stock and the assumption of amounts payable in the amount of $1,035,068.  As a result of the acquisition of the Pure Spectrum shares, we are also now engaged in the business of oil and gas exploration.
 
For accounting purposes, the acquisition of Pure Spectrum is being accounted for at historical carrying values in a manner similar to acquisition under common control method since our Chief Executive Officer and controlling shareholder  is also the Chief Executive Officer and controlling shareholder of Pure Spectrum.  Transfers or exchanges of equity instruments between entities under common control are recorded at the carrying amount of the transferring entity at the date of transfer with no goodwill or other intangible assets recognized.  We did not recognize a gain or loss on the  acquisition of Pure Spectrum because this acquisition is accounted for as an acquisition under common control. Our consolidated financial statements and reported results of operations reflect the Pure Spectrum carryover values, and our reported results of operations and stockholders’ equity have been retroactively restated for all periods presented to reflect the operations of Pure Spectrum and the Company as if the acquisition had occurred on May 21, 2012, the date the Company and Pure Spectrum commenced common control.  All intercompany accounts and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

In the third Fiscal Quarter of 2013, we expanded our operations into digital media. We plan to release our expanded business plan in the first fiscal quarter of 2014, in conjunction with our launch. However, to date our core business will remain Oil, Gas and Mineral Exploration.

We have not earned any revenues to date. We do not anticipate earning revenues until such time as we enter into commercial production of our mineral properties. We are presently in the exploration stage of our business and we can provide no assurance that we will discover commercially exploitable levels of mineral resources on our properties, or if such deposits are discovered, that we will enter into further substantial exploration programs.

Company Summary
 
 Introduction and Business
 
We are an oil and gas exploration and exploitation corporation focused on acquisition and production in and around the Permian Basin and the Bend Arch-Fort Worth Basin (collectively the “Basins”). Containing one of the world’s thickest deposits of rocks from the Permian geologic period, the Permian Basin spans approximately Two Hundred Fifty (250) miles wide and Three Hundred (300) miles long. It is largely contained in the western part of Texas .
 
The Bend Arch-Fort Worth Basin is a geological system covering Fifty-Four Thousand (54,000) square miles, primarily comprised within north-central Texas and southwestern Oklahoma (see image on the left). The United States Geological Survey estimated an average of Twenty-Six Trillion Seven Hundred Billion (26,700,000,000,000) cubic feet of undiscovered natural gas and a mean of One Billion One Hundred Million (1,100,000,000) barrels of undiscovered natural gas liquids in the Bend Arch-Fort Worth Basin.  According to the United States Geological Survey. National Assessment of Oil and Gas Fact Sheet. 2003. Web. 14 June 2011, the market for oil hydrocarbons and petroleum in the United States has grown exponentially, creating an unprecedented demand for refined oil and gas. We plan to launch an operating infrastructure for the profitable production of oil and gas through a sustainable business model for the acquisition and retention of valuable leases, wells and other related properties.
 
We plan to seek funding to procure long-term leases and the equipment necessary for gainful drilling. We intend to enter into operating agreements for the production of oil and gas through the existing orphan well program with the Railroad Commission of Texas on acquired properties, sell existing interests and rights to leases and properties, and acquire new interests and properties to generate a base cash-flow. However, they can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain financing for these leases.

We expect to focus our search for petrochemicals on distressed and orphaned oil and gas properties near areas of proven production. The Railroad Commission of Texas identifies such wells as “non-compliant” properties. These wells have been inactive for a minimum of twelve (12) months with the responsible operator's Organizational Report (“Form P-5”) delinquent for more than Twelve (12) months. In order to obtain the right, title and related interest in these wells, we must have an active Form P-5 and provide a good faith claim to operate the wells upon request. To date, we do not have an active Form P-5 and there can be no assurance that we will obtain an active P-5.
 
It should be noted that the Form P-5 process is as follows according to Railroad Commission of Texas Statewide Rule 1, revised February 1986 Who Is To File Form P-5: any entity, i.e., person, firm, partnership, joint stock association, corporation, or any other organization, domestic or foreign, operating wholly or partially within this state, acting as principal or agent for another, for the purpose of performing operations within the jurisdiction of the Commission, as shown in Statewide Rule 1.  When To File Form P-5:  Initial Filing - the initial Form P-5 must be filed prior to beginning the first operation that is within Commission jurisdiction or when an organization name is being changed. This initial filing will cover all subsequent operations.”
 
Purchasing orphaned and distressed wells is common practice in the oil and gas industry. There is direct competition from both smaller and larger oil producers distributing to the One Hundred Forty-Eight (148) refineries in the United States.
 
Yaterra and the Oil and Gas Industry
 
According to Alex Epstein’s Four Dirty Secrets about Clean Energy. 2011 and Steve Hargreaves. Oil Demand to Hit Highest Level Ever. 2011, the demand for oil and natural gas has increased in recent years and is expected to increase in the future. Consistent with this trend consumption of oil in the United States is projected to rise from Eighteen Million Five Hundred Fifty Thousand (18,550,000) barrels of oil per day in 2012 to Eighteen Million Six Hundred Sixty Nine Thousand  (18,690,000) barrels of oil per day in 2014 as stated by the United States. Energy Information Administration. Short-Term Energy Outlook. The average price of imported crude oil for refineries in the United States is expected to decrease from the 2013 average of Ninety-Nine Dollars and Forty-Seven Cents ($99.47) per barrel to Ninety-Six Dollars and Ninety-Nine Cents ($96.99) per barrel in 2014.

In addition, the United States Energy Information Administration. Short-Term Energy Outlook projects natural gas production to increase from 70 bcf/d in 2013 to 70.4 Bcf/d in 2014, which is an increase from 69.2 Bcf/d in 2012.
 
Significant Challenges
 
Our lack of operating capital and stretched cash-flow impose both short and long-term challenges. Acquiring an orphaned well requires an active Form P-5 Organization Report, which details an applicant’s operations. This form must be filed with the Texas Railroad Commission (“TRRC”) by any entity or person operating under the commission of the TRRC within the State of Texas. According to the Railroad Commission’s website, we must be a “Bonded Operator” and have a good faith claim to operate acquired wells.  Furthermore, the Railroad Commission of Texas. Instructions: Individual & Blanket Performance Bonds Letters of Credit or Cash Deposits. Austin, TX. published July 2011, requires that a Blanket Performance Bond be submitted to cover all wells and operations. The minimum amount for a Blanket Performance Bond is Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000.00) which covers acquisition and operation of up to Ten (10) wells. The equipment, maintenance and general overhead necessary to produce oil at an efficient rate requires significant additional working capital.
 
We also anticipate possible legal and regulatory challenges. Expenditures of time and resources may be required in accordance with various state and federal compliance laws, including licensing and operating requirements. Crude oil and natural gas reserve engineering is a subjective process that is inherently risky. Various uncertainties exist when estimating quantities of proved crude oil and natural gas reserves. Accordingly, estimating underground accumulations of crude oil and natural gas cannot be precisely measured. The accuracy of any reserve estimate is the function of the quality of available data and engineering and geological interpretation. Numerous market uncertainties may impact our performance, including future hydrocarbon production, changes in the price of oil, availability of indispensible equipment and services, and competitors with greater financial resources.
 
We are also subject to several categories of risk associated with development stage activities.

Operations and Services
 
Operational Goals

We are seeking to become a Bonded Operator, which will enable us to acquire the rights to orphaned wells and distressed properties through the Railroad Commission of Texas (“TRRC” or the “Commission”). Management believes that this method of acquiring assets will strategically position the Company to obtain the properties and leases at discounted rates, thus reserving cash for subsequent overhead and operational expenditures. Our short-term goal is to identify the orphaned and distressed properties retaining the highest expected rate of production, including the quality of the oil extracted and the progress of the previous owner’s well development.
 
Once sufficient funds for adequate working capital are received and the Blanket Performance Bond is filed with the TRRC allowing for the operation and acquisition of the orphaned wells and distressed properties, we expect to shift considerable resources to drilling and acquiring necessary equipment. We anticipate that with adequate capital the newly acquired wells will be fully operational and productive within months; however no assurance can be given as to the timing of such operations.  We further expect to harmonize our  plan for growth with production by retaining long-term operational staff and permanent corporate directors and officers.
 
Acquiring Orphaned Properties
 
Once we are funded and considered a Bonded Operator under Commission rules, we can acquire up to Ten (10) orphaned and distressed oil and gas properties.  Based on projected costs and levels of oil and gas production, Management expects expansion to begin in Texas. To acquire more than Ten (10) wells, we must increase the amount of its Blanket Performance Bond to Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00) as expressly stated in the Railroad Commission of Texas. Instructions: Individual & Blanket Performance Bonds Letters of Credit or Cash Deposits, July 2011
 
Becoming a Bonded Operator with the Commission enables us to acquire the rights and interests of the orphaned properties. Properties will be selected based on perceived risk, whereby Management will identify low to moderate risk oil and natural gas reserves by reviewing and reprocessing previously recorded seismic data, third-party geological data, and third-party engineering economic analysis.  The TRRC releases a complete list of distressed wells available for acquisition monthly, and we expect to thoroughly review the available properties and make cognizant and calculated selections based upon our  years of experience in the oil and natural gas industry.
 
Location
 
We plan to concentrate our initial expansion in the Bend Arch-Fort Worth Basin.  We predict that both the Permian Basin and the Bend Arch-Fort Worth Basin contain worthwhile acquisition prospects. With adequate initial capital, of which there can be no assurance that we will receive, we plan to expand into several counties in Texas.
 
Regulatory Matters
 
The Railroad Commission of Texas (“TRRC”) has primary regulatory jurisdiction over the oil and natural gas industry, pipeline transporters, natural gas and hazardous liquid pipeline industry, natural gas utilities, the petroleum industry and coal and uranium surface mining operations.
 
Acquiring an orphaned well requires an active Organization Report, or Form P-5. This form details an applicant’s operations and must be filed with the TRRC by any entity or person operating under the commission of the TRRC within the State of Texas. Furthermore, we must be a “bonded operator” and have a good faith claim to operate the acquired wells in order to acquire an orphaned well. At this present time, we have yet to acquire orphan wells.
 
 
6

 
 
An operator that acquires an orphan well is responsible for regulatory compliance.  The TRRC requires that any wells acquired must be properly plugged pursuant to Statewide Rule 14. The acquiring operator assumes responsibility for the physical operation and control of the wells and the duty to comply with all the Commission’s rules and filings requirements.
 
Compliance with Regulation
 
There are several governmental regulations that materially restrict mineral exploration. We may be required to obtain work permits, post bonds and perform remediation work for any physical disturbance to the land in order to comply with these laws. If we enter the production phase, the cost of complying with permit and regulatory environment laws will be greater because the impact on the project area is greater. Permits and regulations will control all aspects of the production program if the project continues to that stage. Examples of regulatory requirements include:

 
(i)
Water discharge will have to meet drinking water standards;
 
(ii)
Dust generation will have to be minimal or otherwise re-mediated;
 
(iii)
Dumping of material on the surface will have to be re-contoured and re-vegetated with natural vegetation;
 
(iv)
An assessment of all material to be left on the surface will need to be environmentally benign;
 
(v)
Ground water will have to be monitored for any potential contaminants;
 
(vi)
The socio-economic impact of the project will have to be evaluated and if deemed negative, will have to be re-mediated; and
 
(vii)
There will have to be an impact report of the work on the local fauna and flora including a study of potentially endangered species.
 
Competition
 
We are an exploration stage company. We compete with other mineral resource exploration and development companies for financing and for the acquisition of new mineral properties. Many of the mineral resource exploration and development companies with whom we compete have greater financial and technical resources than we do. Accordingly, these competitors may be able to spend greater amounts on acquisitions of mineral properties of merit, on exploration of their mineral properties and on development of their mineral properties. In addition, they may be able to afford greater geological expertise in the targeting and exploration of mineral properties. This competition could result in competitors having mineral properties of greater quality and interest to prospective investors who may finance additional exploration and development. This competition could adversely impact our ability to finance further exploration and to achieve the financing necessary for us to develop our mineral properties.
 
Research and Development Expenditures
 
We have not incurred any research expenditures since our incorporation.
 
Patents and Trademarks
 
We do not own, either legally or beneficially, any patents or trademarks.
 
Employees
 
We have no employees other than our Chief Executive Officer, Cedric Atkinson and our interim Chief Financial Officer, Gregory K. Clements. We conduct our business largely through consultants.

PROPERTIES.
 
We rent office space located at 240 Martin Street, #3, Blaine, Washington, 98230. The office space consists of 80 square feet that we rent at a monthly price of $316.
 
We currently do not own any physical property or any real property. We own a 100% interest in our lead mineral project called the Blue Jack Property. We also hold a 100% interest in another mineral property called the Minnie Claim.

The Blue Jack Property
 
Our lead mineral property is the Blue Jack Property. We acquired the Blue Jack Property in September 2008 for $16,000. The Blue Jack Property is comprised of 10 mineral claims, located in Humboldt County, Nevada. Each claim covers 20.67 acres for an aggregate 206.66 acres.

Federal regulations require a yearly maintenance fee to keep the claims in good standing. In accordance with Federal regulations, the Blue Jack Property is in good standing to September 1, 2013. A yearly maintenance fee of $140 per claim is required to be paid to the Bureau of Land Management prior to the expiry date to keep the claims in good standing for an additional year. If we fail to pay the required amount of the maintenance fee we may lose all interest that we have in the Blue Jack Property. As of this date, we have not made the current payment due to the Bureau of Land Management. We are currently reevaluating the project’s viability. If we do decide to proceed with these claims, we due stand a chance to lose all interest in these claims if we fail to pay the maintenance fee before the claims are purchased by a 3rd party.

 Location of the Blue Jack Property
 

Location and Access
 
The Blue Jack Property is located in Humboldt County in northwestern Nevada. The property is located 102 miles northwest of Winnemucca, Nevada. Winnemucca is located 166 miles northeast of Reno, Nevada.
 
The property is easily accessible from Winnemucca by paved highway for 76 miles, then by a gravel road for 24 miles and then by a desert trail for 3 miles.

Climate and Physiography
 
Average temperatures in the area range from 18°F in December to 95°F in July. The region is extremely dry, receiving only 7.9 inches of precipitation annually. An average of 1.1 inches of precipitation falls during the month of May. July is the driest month with a total average of 0.3 inches of precipitation.
 
The Blue Jack Property is located at the northern margin of the Black Rock Valley Desert along the eastern flanks of the transition between the Black Rock Range to the south and Pine Forest Range to the north. The valley floor is located at an elevation of approximately 4200 feet. Elevations on the property are moderate, ranging from 4600 to 5300 feet, and quickly rise to above 8650 feet in the mountains to the east of the property. The main showing and historic workings are located in the centre of the property at an elevation of 4875 feet.
 
The area consists of sagebrush and desert grass covered flats and hills typical of the Nevada desert. The region is well populated with desert jack rabbits and antelope.
 
History
 
The Blue Jack Property is located within the Varyville mining district of Humboldt County. This area is centered around Bartlett Peak between the Black Rock Range to the south and the Pine Forest Range to the north. The district and subsequent town site were named after a lode discovery in the 1870’s. The Varyville district has been referred to in various publications over the years as the Columbia, the Leonard Creek and the Bartlett district.
 
Other properties throughout the district have extensive workings, but no recorded production of ore.
 
Records indicate that geologists conducted a sampling of a trench located on the Blue Jack Property in order to determine whether uranium mineralization existed on the property. Previous reports also indicated that the Resource Investigation Division of the US Atomic Energy Commission (“AEC”) located and investigated radioactive localities in the 1950’s. AEC geologists compiled detailed data on select uranium deposits, one of which was a showing on the Blue Jack Property.
 
Regional Geology
 
The region in which the Blue Jack Property is found consists mainly of Tertiary volcanic rocks. The region also contains some metamorphosed fine clastic sedimentary formations mainly from the Triassic and Jurassic Periods. Sediments in the region are also overlain by basalts, tuffs and gravels. Older rocks have been intruded by several different bodies of granodiorites, quartz-monzonites and diorites from the Cretaceous and Tertiary Periods.
 
In the Pine Forest Range, several intrusive rocks are exposed, which indicates that the deposits in the region have a deep-seated source. The host rock for most of the deposits in the region is a metasedimentary and metavolcanic complex in fault contact with the core plutonic complex underlying the range. The deposits are virtually all structurally controlled. Faulting provided a conduit for the hydrothermal fluids to migrate, resulting in mineralization along the trend.
 
Property Geology
 
The Blue Jack Property is defined by diorites and granodiorites in fault contact with highly foliated and fractured shaley silicified limestones and metasediments. A strong shear zone defines the faulted contact, which strikes at 320 degrees and dips steeply to the northeast. The ground to the south of the property is overlain by Quaternary alluvium and boulders of basaltic and andesitic composition. Based on regional geological mapping, these are likely from the Triassic Period as well.

 
10

 
 
On the Blue Jack Property, there is mineralization exposed in a historic trench, being approximately 248 feet long by 33 feet wide, located along a strike with the fault contact. The fault is marked by intensely fractured limestones and metasediments in the foot wall and fractured granodiorites in the hanging wall to the west. Fault gouge is significantly abundant in many areas along the trench.
 
Faulting appears to be the controlling factor in mineralization. Copper mineralization appears to be consistent throughout the exposed fractured rocks. Jasper veining and chalcedony are present in the northern exposures of the trench, indicating a possibility that gold mineralization may exist on the property.
 
Exploration Program
 
Our exploration program for the Blue Jack Property is expected to include the following:

In November 2011, we completed a preliminary rock sampling program on the Blue Jack Property. For this program, we obtained four rock samples in order to determine the appropriate target for Phase I of our exploration program. Results of the program showed a presence of rare earth minerals that we believe justifies some follow up work. The samples were fire assayed by ALS Minerals located in Reno Nevada. Based on the above, we have elected to proceed with Phase Ia of our exploration program, subject to obtaining additional financing.
 
The Minnie Claim
 
We acquired a 100% interest in the Minnie Claim in March 28, 2007 for $6,000 in cash. We have suspended our exploration program on the Minnie Claim in order to focus our resources on the Blue Jack Property.

The Minnie Claim is recorded with the Bureau of Land Management in the State of Washington under number 3115896. The Minnie Claim is in good standing until September 1, 2013. In order to maintain the Minnie Claim in good standing we will need to pay $140 to the Bureau of Land Management on September 1, 2013. As of this date, we have not made the current payment due to the Bureau of Land Management. We are currently reevaluating the projects viability.  If we do decide to proceed with these claims, we due stand a chance to lose all interest in these claims if we fail to pay the maintenance fee before the claims are purchased by a third party.

Location and Access
 
The Minnie Mining Claim is located between the towns of Twisp and Carlton in Okanogan County, Washington. The center of the property is approximately 2.8 miles northeast of Carlton, within what is referred to as Leecher Canyon.
 
The property is accessible by a paved highway within 2.7 miles of the claim. A well maintained gravel road provides access to the Minnie Claim.
 
History of Exploration
 
Mining history in the Cascades dates back to 1853 when placer gold was discovered in the Yakima Valley. This led to a brief gold rush in the area, and gold occurrences were reported throughout the Cascades. Placer gold was discovered in Okanogan River in 1860, which possibly led to the discovery of gold at nearby Gold Ridge and Leecher Canyon.
 
The area covered by the Minnie Claim has a recorded history of work dating back to 1949, when it was owned by Franklin Blocksom. Historical records indicate the property contains gold, silver, and zinc in a leached and honeycombed quartz vein located in metamorphic rocks. The vein is up to 3 feet wide, and was developed and explored by several open cuts including a 160 foot adit with a 55 foot winze, a 25 foot drift and a 30 foot stope.
 
Geology
 
Regional Geology
 
The Minnie Claim is located within the North Cascade Range, and consists of an active volcanic arc superimposed upon a Tertiary-age bedrock. Recent uplift has created high topographic relief. The North Cascades are composed of faulted and folded Mesozoic and Paleozoic crystalline and metamorphic rocks and tertiary intrusive, volcanic and sedimentary rocks.
 
Regionally, the center of gold mining is found in the Republic Graben, located in the Republic District of Washington. As of 1989, records indicate that the district produced over 2.5 million ounces of gold and 14 million ounces of silver, mainly in epithermal systems related to the final stages of Eocene calc-alkaline volcanism. In the Okanogan County, gold mineralization occurs in a skarn on Buckhorn property which also contains bismuth and cobalt mineralization. Porphyry copper-molybdenum deposits have been drilled at Oroville and Keller. The Mount Tolman deposit at Keller is the third or fourth largest molybdenum reserve in the United States.
 
Property Geology
 
The Minnie Claim is underlain by Pre-Tertiary metamorphic rocks. Mineralization of the claim consists of gold, silver, and zinc minerals within epithermal quartz veins up to a meter in width.
 
Records indicate the leached and honeycomb quartz veins contain pyrite, chalcopyrite, sheelite and marcasite. The open structure of the quartz veins are entirely filled with sulfide mineralization.
 
Three rock samples were collected earlier in the year, indicating a potential for economic mineralization may exist on the property with elevated gold, silver, copper and zinc values.

Current State of Exploration Activities
 
We have suspended our exploration program on the Minnie Claim in order to focus our resources on the Blue Jack Property.
 
Prior to our suspension of the exploration program on the Minnie Claim, our consulting geologist had commenced Phase I of our exploration program. He collected nine rock samples from the Minnie Claim. The samples consisted of outcrop grabs across strike as well as float samples of mineralized veins near historical workings. These samples were sent to an independent laboratory for testing. In January 2009, we received the fire assay results on the rock samples and they indicated the occurrence of gold mineralization on the Minnie Claim. The fire assay results on the rock samples are summarized as follows:

REGISTERED HOLDERS OF OUR COMMON STOCK
 
As of November 20, 2013, there were 16 registered holders of our common stock. We believe that a number of stockholders hold stock on deposit with their brokers or investment bankers registered in the name of stock depositories.
 
DIVIDENDS
 
We have not declared any dividends on our common stock since our inception. There are no dividend restrictions that limit our ability to pay dividends on our common stock in our Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws. Chapter 78 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (the “NRS”), does provide certain limitations on our ability to declare dividends. Section 78.288 of Chapter 78 of the NRS prohibits us from declaring dividends where, after giving effect to the distribution of the dividend:

(a)
we would not be able to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or
   
(b)
except as may be allowed by our Articles of Incorporation, our total assets would be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed, if we were to be dissolved at the time of the distribution, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of stockholders who may have preferential rights and whose preferential rights are superior to those receiving the distribution.
 
 
15

 
 
We have neither declared nor paid any cash dividends on our capital stock and do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Our current policy is to retain any earnings in order to finance the expansion of our operations. Our board of directors will determine future declaration and payment of dividends, if any, in light of the then-current conditions they deem relevant and in accordance with the NRS.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
Revenues
 
We have not earned any revenues to date. We do not anticipate earning revenues until such time as we enter into commercial production of our mineral properties. We are presently in the exploration stage of our business and we can provide no assurance that we will discover commercially exploitable levels of mineral resources on our properties, or if such deposits are discovered, that we will enter into further substantial exploration programs.

Net loss
  $ (4,722,177 )   $ (201,188 )     2,247 %
 
Our operating expenses increased from $175,807 during the year ended August 31, 2011, to $1,246,227, during the year ended August 31, 2012. The increase was due primarily to increased management compensation and we issued stock to outside professionals and consultants for work performed that created an additional expense for the year ended August 31, 2012 of $965,706 for these services.
 
Our other expenses increased from $25,381 during the year ended August 31, 2011, to $3,475,950, during the year ended August 31, 2012. The increase was primarily due to increases in the accounting treatment of new debt acquired to raise operating capital and the acquisition of Pure Spectrum.  We recorded expenses for the loss on extinguishment of debt of $1,783,048. We also recorded a loss on the change in fair value of our derivative liabilities of $430,591 and we recorded $1,262,311 in interest expense for the year ended August 31, 2012.
 
Management compensation consists of salaries and stock compensation incurred to our executive directors and officers. During the year ended August 31, 2011 we recorded $48,000 in salary and during the year ended August 31, 2012 we recorded $131,955 in salary, $15,706 in stock-based compensation and we accrued an additional $41,574 in stock-based compensation per our CEO’s stock grant.  This increase was primarily due to a change in management during the year ended August 31, 2012.
 
If we are able to obtain sufficient financing to proceed with our plan of operation, of which there is no assurance, we expect that our expenses will increase significantly as we engage in mining and exploration activities.

The increase in our working capital deficit is primarily a result of: (i) an increase in accounts payable due to a lack of capital to meet our ongoing expenditures; and (ii) the fact that as we secure financing to continue our operations, we have secured loans to fund the acquisition of Pure Spectrum, and we received $135,500 in convertible loans. The loans bear interest at 8% to 12%, are unsecured and due on demand. We have incurred a cumulative net loss of $5,398,184 for the period from the date of our inception on November 20, 2006 to August 31, 2012 and have not attained profitable operations to date.
 
Since our inception, we have used our common stock to raise money for our operations and to fund our property acquisitions. We have not obtained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining additional financing to pursue our plan of operation.
 
Future Financings
 
We currently do not have sufficient financial resources to implement Phase Ia of our exploration program on the Blue Jack Property. Therefore, we will need to obtain additional financing in order to implement our exploration program on the Blue Jack Property as well as for the acquisition of any additional properties. Our plan of operation calls for us to spend significantly more than our current capital resources or the amount of financing that we have been able to obtain to date. As such, there is a substantial doubt that we will be able to raise significant financing to complete our stated plan of operation. Any substantial financing that we are able to obtain is expected to be in the form of equity financing, which will result in dilution to existing shareholders.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
 
We have no significant 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 stockholders.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in Note 2 of our audited financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2012 included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. We have identified certain accounting policies, described below, that are most important to the portrayal of our current financial condition and results of operations.
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying disclosures. Actual results may differ from the estimates.
 
Significant accounts that require estimates as a basis for determining the stated amounts include mineral property acquisition costs and impairment, accrued liabilities and the valuation allowance of deferred tax assets.
 
Exploration Stage Enterprise
 
Our financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting. Until such properties are acquired and developed, we will continue to prepare our financial statements and related disclosures in accordance with entities in the exploration stage.

Mineral Property Interests
 
We are an exploration stage mining company and have not yet realized any revenue from our operations. We are primarily engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of mining properties. Exploration costs are expensed as incurred regardless of the stage of development or existence of reserves. Costs of acquisition are capitalized subject to impairment testing when facts and circumstances indicate impairment may exist.
 
We regularly perform evaluations of any investment in mineral properties to assess the recoverability and/or the residual value of our investments in these assets. All long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances change which indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.
 
Our management periodically reviews the carrying value of our investments in mineral leases and claims with internal and external mining related professionals. A decision to abandon, reduce or expand a specific project is based upon many factors including general and specific assessments of mineral deposits, anticipated future mineral prices, anticipated future costs of exploring, developing and operating a production mine, the expiration term and ongoing expenses of maintaining mineral properties and the general likelihood that we will continue exploration on such project. We do not set a pre-determined holding period for properties with unproven deposits; however, properties which have not demonstrated suitable metal concentrations at the conclusion of each phase of an exploration program are re-evaluated to determine if future exploration is warranted, whether there has been any impairment in value and that their carrying values are appropriate.
 
If an area of interest is abandoned or it is determined that its carrying value cannot be supported by future production or sale, the related costs are charged against operations in the year of abandonment or determination of value. The amounts recorded as mineral leases and claims represent costs to date and do not necessarily reflect present or future values.
 
Our exploration activities and proposed mine development are subject to various laws and regulations governing the protection of the environment. These laws are continually changing, generally becoming more restrictive. We have made, and expect to make in the future, expenditures to comply with such laws and regulations.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors of
Yaterra Ventures Corp.
(An Exploration Stage Company)
Toronto, Ontario Canada

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Yaterra Ventures Corp. (an exploration stage company) and its subsidiary (collectively, the “Company”) as of August 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of expenses, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years then ended and for the period from November 20, 2006 (inception) through August 31, 2012. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Yaterra Ventures Corp. (an exploration stage company) and its subsidiary as of August 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years then ended and for period from November 20, 2006 (inception) through August 31, 2012 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered losses from operations and has a working capital deficit and an accumulated deficit as of August 31, 2012, which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding those matters also are described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

YATERRA VENTURES CORP.
(An Exploration Stage Company)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
1. 
NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN

Organization and Acquisition

Yaterra Ventures Corp. (“the Company”) was incorporated in Nevada on November 20, 2006. On May 21, 2012, the Company acquired 100% of Pure Spectrum Oil, Inc., a company incorporated in Nevada in exchange for 4,000,000 common shares. In connection with the acquisition, the Company acquired a deposit of $25,000 and assumed accounts payable of $9,803 and convertible notes payable of $1,050,265. As a result of the acquisition of the Pure Spectrum Oil shares, the Company is planning to go into the business of oil and gas exploration.

The Company and Pure Spectrum Oil were under common control as of the date of the acquisition. On December 5, 2011, Cedric Atkinson (the Chief Executive Officer of the Company) acquired control of Pure Spectrum, Inc. (the parent of Pure Spectrum Oil) through the acquisition of Series B voting preferred stock in Pure Spectrum, Inc. The acquisition of these Series B preferred shares provided Cedric Atkinson with majority ownership in Pure Spectrum, Inc. In addition, on March 2, 2012, Cedric Atkinson obtained control of Yaterra Ventures, Corp. through the purchase of 900,000 common shares from the previous owner of the Company. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the acquisition of Pure Spectrum is being accounted for at historical carrying values. The Chief Executive Officer and controlling shareholder of the Company is also the Chief Executive Officer and controlling shareholder of Pure Spectrum. Transfers or exchanges of equity instruments between entities under common control are recorded at the carrying amount of the transferring entity at the date of transfer with no goodwill or other intangible assets recognized. Our consolidated financial statements and reported results of operations reflect the Pure Spectrum Oil carryover values, and our reported results of operations and stockholders’ equity have been retroactively restated for all periods presented to reflect the operations of Pure Spectrum Oil and the Company as if the acquisition had occurred on March 2, 2012, the date the Company and Pure Spectrum Oil commenced common control. All intercompany accounts and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Exploration Stage Activities

The Company was formed for the purpose of acquiring exploration and development stage natural resource properties. The Company has not commenced business operations. The Company is an exploration stage company in accordance with FASB ASC 915, Development Stage Entities.
 
Going Concern
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has incurred net losses of $5,398,184 for the period from November 20, 2006 (inception) to August 31, 2012 and has not yet generated revenue. In addition, the company has a working capital deficit and an accumulated deficit as of August 31, 2012. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The future of the Company is dependent upon its ability to obtain financing and upon future profitable operations from the development of its natural resource properties. Management has plans to seek additional capital through a private placement and public offering of its common stock. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.

2.            SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
a.) Basis of Presentation
 
These consolidated financial statements and notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
 
b.) Principles of Consolidation
 
The Company’s consolidated financial statements include the assets, liabilities and operating results of its wholly owned subsidiary. The Company does not hold significant variable interests in any variable interest entities. All significant intercompany accounts, ownership and transactions have been eliminated.

c.) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date in the principal or most advantageous market. The Company uses a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
Level 2: Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions

The Company determined the fair value of its derivative liabilities related to conversion options in outstanding debt using Level 3 inputs.

The following table summarizes assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of August 31, 2012:

d.) Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
Cash consists of cash on deposit with high quality major financial institutions, and to date has not experienced losses on any of its balances. The carrying amounts approximate fair market value due to the liquidity of these deposits.

e.) Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share

Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted loss per common share is computed similar to basic loss per common share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. At August 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company has no common stock equivalents that were anti-dilutive and excluded in the earnings per share computation.

f.) Income Taxes

Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. The Company has adopted ASC 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes ”, as of its inception. Pursuant to ASC 740 the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. The potential benefits of net operating losses have not been recognized in these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years.

g.) Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying disclosures. Actual results may differ from the estimates.

h.) Long Lived Assets

Long-lived assets, including mineral properties, are evaluated for impairment whenever events or conditions indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. If the sum of the expected undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying value of the related asset or group of assets, a loss is recognized for the difference between the fair value and carrying value of the asset or group of assets. During the year ended August 31, 2011, the Company fully impaired its mineral properties.
 
i.) Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

j.)  Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements are not expected to have a material effect on the Company's future reported financial position or results of operations.

CORRECTION OF PRIOR YEAR INFORMATION

During September 2013, we identified errors in the previously reported financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2011. We determined that the mineral property rights were impaired as of August 31, 2011. Further, we identified errors in the classification of certain assets and liabilities. This resulted in adjustments to the previously reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2011.

In accordance with the SEC's Staff Accounting Bulletin Nos. 99 and 108 (SAB 99 and SAB 108), the Company evaluated these errors and, based on an analysis of quantitative and qualitative factors, determined that the error was immaterial to each of the prior reporting periods affected. However, if the adjustments to correct the cumulative effect of the above error had been recorded in the year ended August 31, 2012, the Company believes the impact would have been significant and would impact comparisons to prior periods. Therefore, as permitted by SAB 108, the Company corrected, in the current filing, previously reported results for the year ended August 31, 2011.

The following table presents the comparative effect of the correction of prior year information and the impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2011:

The Company evaluated the notes under ASC 815 and determined that they qualify as derivative liabilities. The aggregate fair value of the derivative liability was determined to be $1,551,642 as of the initial loan dates resulting in an initial loss on derivative liabilities of $373,377 and a debt discount of $1,178,265. The fair value of the derivative liabilities on the notes that were converted to common stock during the year ended August 31, 2012 was determined to be $49,339 and the fair value of the remaining derivative liabilities as of August 31, 2012 was determined to be $1,559,517.

ITEM 9A.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
 
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as required by Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) as of August 31, 2012 (the “Evaluation Date”). Based upon that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the Evaluation Date as a result of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting discussed below.
 
The framework used to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting is based upon guiding principles advocated by The Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in 1992. This guidance provides a set of twenty basic principles representing the fundamental concepts associated with, and drawn directly from, the five components of the framework i.e. control environment, risk assessment, control activities, information and communication and monitoring.
 
Internal controls over financial reporting is defined in the SEC's rules as those controls designed by the company's principal executive and financial officers to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of the company's financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP.
 
Notwithstanding the assessment that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective and that there were material weaknesses as identified in this report, we believe that our financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2012 fairly present our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows in all material respects.
 
Management’s Assessment on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, for the Company.
 
Internal controls over financial reporting include those policies and procedures that:

1.
Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
     
2.
Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of the issuer are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and
     
3.
Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 
Management recognizes that there are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any system of internal control, and accordingly, even effective internal control can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and may not prevent or detect material misstatements. In addition, effective internal control at a point in time may become ineffective in future periods because of changes in conditions or due to deterioration in the degree of compliance with our established policies and procedures.
 
A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in there being a more than remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected.
 
 
32

 
 
Under the supervision and with the participation of our Principal Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer, management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, as of the Evaluation Date, based on the framework set forth in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on its evaluation under this framework, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of the Evaluation Date and identified the following material weaknesses:
 
Insufficient Resources: We have an inadequate number of personnel with requisite expertise in the key functional areas of finance and accounting resulting in an over-reliance on consultants and a lack of formal procedures that provide for multiple levels of supervision and review.
 
Inadequate Segregation of Duties : We have an inadequate number of personnel to properly implement control procedures.
 
Insufficient Written Policies & Procedures: We have insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting.
 
Inadequate Financial Statement Closing Process: We have an inadequate financial statement closing process.
 
Lack of Outside Directors on the Company’s Board of Directors: We have a lack of outside directors on our Board of Directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures.
 
Management is committed to improving its internal controls and will (1) continue to use third party specialists to address shortfalls in staffing and to assist us with accounting and finance responsibilities, (2) increase the frequency of independent reconciliations of significant accounts which will mitigate the lack of segregation of duties until there are sufficient personnel (3) prepare and implement sufficient written policies and checklists for financial reporting and closing processes and (4) may consider appointing outside directors and audit committee members in the future.
 
Management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer, have discussed the material weakness noted above with our third party consulting accountant. Due to the nature of this material weakness, there is a more than remote likelihood that misstatements which could be material to the annual or interim financial statements could occur that would not be prevented or detected.
 
This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to the rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management's report in this annual report.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended August 31, 2012 that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
 
Our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer, do not expect that the our controls and procedures will prevent all potential errors or fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.

None of our executive officers or directors has any formal training as geologists. Our executive officers and directors have very limited training on the technical and managerial aspects of managing a Oil, Gas and mineral exploration company. None of their prior managerial and consulting positions have been in the mineral exploration industry. Accordingly, we will have to rely on the technical services of others to advise us on the managerial aspects specifically associated with a Oil, Gas and mineral exploration company. We do not have any employees who have professional training or experience in the mining industry. We rely on independent geological consultants to make recommendations to us on work programs on our property, to hire appropriately skilled persons on a contract basis to complete work programs and to supervise, review, and report on such programs to us.

Term of Office
 
Members of our board of directors are appointed to hold office until the next annual meeting of our stockholders or until his or her successor is elected and qualified, or until they resign or are removed in accordance with the provisions of the Nevada Revised Statutes. Our officers are appointed by our board of directors and hold office until removed by the board.
 
Significant Employees
 
We have no significant employees other than our executive officers and directors.
 
We conduct our business through agreements with consultants and arms-length third parties. Currently, we have no formal consulting agreements in place. We have a verbal arrangement with the consulting geologist currently conducting the exploratory work on the Blue Jack Property. We pay to this geologist the usual and customary rates received by geologists performing similar consulting services.
 
Code Of Ethics
 
We adopted a Code of Ethics applicable to our officers and directors which is a “code of ethics” as defined by applicable rules of the SEC. Our code of ethics is attached as an exhibit to this Annual Report for the year ended August 31, 2012.  If we make any amendments to our Code of Ethics other than technical, administrative, or other non-substantive amendments, or grant any waivers, including implicit waivers, from a provision of our Code of Ethics to our President, Treasurer, or certain other finance executives, we will disclose the nature of the amendment or waiver, its effective date and to whom it applies in a current report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC.
 
Director Independence and Committees
 
Although our common stock is not listed on any national securities exchange, for purposes of independence we use the definition applied by the NASDAQ Stock Market.  The Board has determined that none of our directors are “independent” in accordance with that definition due to their current or former positions as our executive officers.
 
Committee and Audit Committee Financial Expert.
 
Our board has no designated committees and our entire board acts as our audit committee.  Gregory Clements is an “audit committee financial expert” as that term is defined in Item 407 (d) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act.
 
Board Leadership Structure
 
Our Chief Executive Officer serves as our Chairman Of the Board of Directors and we do not have a lead independent director.  Due to our size, we feel that this leadership structure is appropriate.
 
Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of our securities (“Reporting Persons”), to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Reporting Persons are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all forms they file pursuant to Section 16(a). Other than as disclosed below, based on our review of such reports received by the Company, we believe that, during the year ended August 31, 2012, all Reporting Persons complied with all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to them.  Each of Cedric Atkinson, our President, Secretary, Treasurer and Director, and Gregory Clements, our Interim Chief Financial Officer and Director  failed to timely file a Form 3 upon their appointment as an officer and director

Note:
 
 
(1) A beneficial owner of a security includes any person who, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise has or shares: (i) voting power, which includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of shares; and (ii) investment power, which includes the power to dispose or direct the disposition of shares. Certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire the shares (for example, upon exercise of an option) within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares outstanding is deemed to include the amount of shares beneficially owned by such person (and only such person) by reason of these acquisition rights. As a result, the percentage of outstanding shares of any person as shown in this table does not necessarily reflect the person’s actual ownership or voting power with respect to the number of shares of common stock actually outstanding on September 25, 2013. As of September 25, 2013, there were 1,662,886,117 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding.
 
(2)The address for each beneficial owner except Magna Group, LLC is 240 Martin Street, #3, Blaine, WA 98230  The address for Magna Group, LLC is 5 Hanover Square, New York, New York 10004.
 
(3)Includes 1,500,000 Series A Preferred Shares held by Oxygen Management Group, LTD which is entitled to 750,000,000 votes. Each share of the Series A Preferred Stock has 500 votes of common stock per share of Series A Preferred.   Mr. Atkinson is the sole member of Oxygen Management Group, LTD. As such, Mr. Atkinson may be considered to have control over the voting and disposition of the shares registered in the name of Oxygen Management Group, LTD, and therefore, such shares are also included in the shares listed for Mr. Atkinson.
 
(4) Includes 500,000 Series A Preferred Shares held by Mr. Clements which is entitled to 250,000,000 votes. Each share of the Series A Preferred Stock has 500 votes of common stock per share of Series A Preferred.
 
Changes in Control
 
We are not aware of any arrangement which may result in a change in control in the future.

ITEM 13.
CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE.
 
RELATED TRANSACTIONS
 
Except as set forth below, none of the following parties has, during our last two fiscal years, had any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction with us or in any presently proposed transaction that has or will materially affect us:

 
(i)
Any of our directors or officers;
 
(ii)
Any person proposed as a nominee for election as a director;
 
(iii)
Any person who beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, shares carrying more than 10% of the voting rights attached to our outstanding shares of common stock;
 
(iv)
Any of our promoters; and
 
(v)
Any relative or spouse of any of the foregoing persons who has the same house as such person.
 
On May 1, 2012, we entered into a five year employment agreement with Cedric Atkinson to serve as our Chief Executive Officer and President (the “Employment Agreement”). Pursuant to the Employment Agreement, Mr. Atkinson will be entitled to a monthly base salary of $20,000 and an initial stock grant of 10,000,000 shares of our common stock, which vests monthly for twelve months.  Mr. Atkinson will be eligible for discretionary performance as well as certain other specified benefits.
 
If Mr. Atkinson’s employment is terminated for any reason, he or his estate as the case may be, will be entitled to receive the accrued base salary, vacation pay, expense reimbursement and any other entitlements accrued by him to the extent not previously paid (the “Accrued Obligations”); provided, however, that if his employment is terminated: by the Company without Cause (as defined in the Employment Agreement) or by Dr. Warner for Good Reason (as defined in the Employment Agreement) then in addition to paying the Accrued Obligations, he shall be entitled to a severance payment.

During the year ended August 31, 2012, the Company entered into promissory note agreements with current board member, Mr. Dave Ryan, whereby it borrowed a total of 11,547. The Company paid back $6,470 of this balance during the year. These notes bear interest at 10%, are unsecured and are repayable on demand. As at August 31, 2012, a total of $243 has been accrued as interest on the notes.

During the year ended August 31, 2012, the Company entered into promissory note agreements with former officer and board member, Mr. Shane Epp, whereby it borrowed a total of 14,570. The Company paid back $2,000 of this balance during the year. These notes bear interest at 10%, are unsecured and are repayable on demand. As at August 31, 2012, a total of $1,866 has been accrued as interest on the notes.

Also during the year ended August 31, 2012, the Company issued 10% convertible notes to former officer and board member, Mr. Shane Epp, for $25,000 that has a maturity date of December 31, 2014.  There has been no repayment of these notes during the year and a total of $1,689 has been accrued as interest on the notes.
 
Orientation and Continuing Education
 
Mr. Atkinson and Mr. Clements provided an overview of the business activities, systems and business plan to all new directors. New director candidates have free access to any of our records, employees or senior management in order to conduct their own due diligence and will be briefed on the strategic plans, short, medium and long term corporate objectives, business risks and mitigation strategies, corporate governance guidelines and existing policies of the Company. Directors are encouraged to update their skills and knowledge by taking courses and attending professional seminars.

Ethical Business Conduct
 
Our directors believe good corporate governance is an integral component to the success of the Company and to meet responsibilities to shareholders. Generally, our directors have found that the fiduciary duties placed on individual directors by the Company’s governing corporate legislation and the common law and the restrictions placed by applicable corporate legislation on an individual director’s participation in decisions of the Board of Directors in which the director has an interest have been sufficient to ensure that the Board of Directors operates independently of management and in the best interests of the Company.
 
Our directors are also responsible for applying governance principles and practices, and tracking development in corporate governance, and adapting “best practices” to suit the needs of the Company. The directors may also be directors and officers of other companies, and conflicts of interest may arise between their duties. Such conflicts must be disclosed in accordance with, and are subject to such other procedures and remedies as applicable under the Nevada Revised Statutes.
 
Nomination of Directors
 
Our directors have not formed a nominating committee or similar committee to assist them with the nomination of directors for the Company. Our directors consider the size of the Board of Directors to be too small to warrant creation of such a committee; and our directors have contacts they can draw upon to identify new members of the Board of Directors as needed from time to time.
 
Our directors will continually assess the size, structure and composition of the Board of Directors, taking into consideration its current strengths, skills and experience, proposed retirements and the requirements and strategic direction of the Company. As required, directors will recommend suitable candidates for consideration as members of the Board of Directors.
 
Assessments
 
Our directors have not implemented a process for assessing his effectiveness. As a result of our small size and stage of development, our directors consider a formal assessment process to be inappropriate at this time. Our directors plan to continue evaluating their own effectiveness on an ad hoc basis.
