|
1.
|
The Volatility of Oil and Gas Markets may have an adverse affect on our operations
.
|
2.
|
Title to our oil and gas leases could be defective in which case we may not own the interests that we believe we do
.
|
3.
|
If we find gas our wells could be shut-in and revenues could be curtailed.
|
4.
|
Operating and environmental hazards could have a negative impact on our operations.
|
5.
|
Because the probability of an individual prospect ever having oil and gas is extremely remote any funds spent on exploration will probably be lost.
|
6.
|
Because our auditors have issued a going concern opinion, there is substantial uncertainty we will continue operations in which case you could lose your investment.
|
7.
|
Because we may still not have sufficient capital to complete our exploration program, even if we raise the maximum amount in this offering, we may have to sell additional securities and raise additional capital which could dilute your investment.
|
8.
|
We lack an operating history, have never had more than nominal revenues, have no current prospects for significant future revenues, and have losses which we expect to continue into the future. As a result, we may have to suspend or cease operations.
|
*
|
our ability to locate oil and gas
|
*
|
our ability to generate revenues from the sale of oil and gas
|
*
|
our ability to reduce exploration costs.
|
9.
|
Because we are small and do not have much capital, we may have to limit our drilling activity which may result in a loss of your investment.
|
10.
|
Because our officers and directors have other outside business activities and each will only be devoting 10% of their time or approximately four hours per week to our operations, our operations may be sporadic which may result in periodic interruptions or suspensions of exploration
.
|
11.
|
Because our officers and directors will own more than 50% of the outstanding, they will be able to decide who will be directors and you may not be able to elect any directors
.
|
12.
|
Need for substantial additional capital.
|
13.
|
FINRA sales practice requirements may limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock.
|
14.
|
Our future sales of our common shares could cause our stock price to decline.
|
15.
|
The market price of our common stock may be volatile which could adversely affect the value of your investment in our common stock.
|
*
|
fluctuations in our quarterly financial results or the quarterly financial results of companies perceived to be similar to us;
|
*
|
changes in estimates of our financial results or recommendations by securities analysts;
|
*
|
failure of any of our products to achieve or maintain market acceptance;

changes in market valuations of similar companies;
|
*
