NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

History of the Company. Incorporated in Nevada in December 2003 under the name Panorama Investments Corp., the Company changed its name to Lucas Energy, Inc. effective June 9, 2006.

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed financial statements of Lucas Energy, Inc., ("Lucas" or the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in Lucas's annual report filed with the SEC on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2014. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the condensed financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the audited financial statements for the most recent fiscal year 2014 as reported in the Form 10-K have been omitted.

The Company's fiscal year ends on the last day of March of the calendar year. The Company refers to the twelve-month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 as its 2015 and 2014 fiscal years, respectively.

NOTE 2 – LIQUIDITY AND GOING CONCERN CONSIDERATIONS

At December 31, 2014, the Company’s Total Current Liabilities of $10.1 million exceeded its Total Current Assets of $0.9 million, resulting in a working capital deficit of $9.2 million. At March 31, 2014, the Company’s total current liabilities of $4.6 million exceeded its total current assets of $1.6 million, resulting in a working capital deficit of $3.0 million. The $6.2 million increase in the working capital deficit is primarily related to approximately $5.4 million of the long-term portion of the Company’s Note Payable becoming current, a $0.26 million reduction in cash due to the payment of expenses with funds raised through the sale of equity and the amended loan agreements described below and a $0.26 million reduction in accounts receivable, as well as an additional $0.28 million in payables from working interest in non-operated wells and property taxes.

On April 21, 2014, the Company closed a registered direct offering of $2,000,000 (approximately $1.8 million net, after deducting commissions and other expenses) of securities, representing 3,333,332 units, each consisting of one share of common stock and 0.50 of one warrant to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share to certain institutional investors (see “Note 7. Stockholders’ Equity”). The Company used the funds raised in the offering to pay expenses related to lease operating, workover activities and for general corporate purposes, including general and administrative expenses.

On April 29, 2014 and effective March 14, 2014, the Company entered into an amended loan agreement relating to its long-term note, which had a balance of approximately $7.3 million as of March 14, 2014. Pursuant to the amended long-term note, we restructured the repayment terms to defer monthly amortizing principal payments which began on March 13, 2014, during the period from April 13, 2014 through September 13, 2014 (see “Note 6. Notes Payable”).

On November 24, 2014, and effective on November 13, 2014, the Company entered into a second amended loan agreement relating to its long-term note, which had a balance of approximately $7.1 million as of November 13, 2014. Pursuant to the second amended long-term note, we restructured the repayment terms of the amended long-term note to defer the principal payment in the amount of $428,327 which was originally due on November 13, 2014, until December 13, 2014, as we were in the process of obtaining new financing, which new financing failed to close as a result of the subsequent precipitous decline in oil prices (see “Note 6. Notes Payable”).

On February 3, 2015, the Company executed a Letter of Intent and Term Sheet for a proposed business combination with Victory Energy Corporation (“Victory”) (see note “13 – Subsequent Events”). Victory and the Company are also negotiating the terms of a funding agreement that is expected to provide the capital necessary for the Company to satisfy its obligations for several Eagle Ford wells, critical accounts payable and to provide the Company with necessary working capital during the period prior to the consummation of the business combination.

Moving forward, the Company anticipates requiring approximately $8.0 million of additional funding over the next several months in order to participate in the drilling activities contemplated by the August 2014 participation agreement with Earthstone Energy, Inc., formally known as Oak Valley Resources (“Earthstone”)(see "Note 4 Property and Equipment"). We also anticipate requiring additional funding of approximately $1.3 million for the current participation in the drilling of five Penn Virginia (“PVA”) wells and for any additional drilling and workover activities on existing properties. In order to address the Company’s capital obligations over the next several months and per the executed term sheet with Victory, the Company expects that funding of these obligations will come from a variety of sources, including certain affiliates of Victory. The Company anticipates these sources providing total funding of approximately $12 million during the business combination with Victory, with additional funding for post-closing debt reduction and expansion to exceed $8 million. The Company expects that as part of the proposed transaction, and funding permitting, seven of the Company’s high-grade Eagle Ford wells with varying working interests will be funded and brought into production during the period from February through June of 2015, provided that certain interests in such wells and proceeds therefrom will be transferred to and/or owned by Victory or its affiliates. Based on nearby EOG Resources and Marathon Oil well production volumes, in addition to internal economic reservoir calculations, the Company anticipates that the monthly production revenue from these combined wells will exceed $1.1 million of revenue to the Company’s interest, assuming a price per barrel of oil of $50, which would bring the Company into a positive cash-flow position and add significant proved producing reserves to the combined 2015 company portfolio.

The Company failed to make the required December 13, 2014 principal payment under the terms of the Second Amended Letter Loan (see “Note 6 – Note Payable” below). Specifically, on January 26, 2015, the Company received notice from a representative of its lender that it had defaulted on a payment. Consequently, the amount owed under the Second Amended Letter Loan of approximately $7.1 million will accrue at a default interest rate of 18% per annum. No further action has been taken by the Company’s lender, who has waived certain required interest payments, which the Company also failed to pay, that were due in January 2015 and February 2015. The lender has also reserved the right to enter into an amended agreement with the Company at any time or to enforce any of their other rights under the Second Amended Letter Loan as a result of such default. Subsequently, the Company also failed to make the required January 13, 2015 and February 13, 2015 principal payments under the terms of the Second Amended Letter Loan.

Due to the nature of oil and gas interests, i.e., that rates of production generally decline over time as oil and gas reserves are depleted, if we are unable to drill additional wells and develop our proved undeveloped reserves (PUDs) or acquire additional operating properties, we believe that our revenues will continue to decline over time. Furthermore, in the event we are unable to raise additional funding in the future, we will not be able to participate with Earthstone in the drilling of planned additional wells, will not be able to complete other drilling and/or workover activities, and may not be able to make required payments on our outstanding liabilities, including the Second Amended Letter Loan, and in fact as described above, have not been able to make certain of such payments to date. As such, in the event we do not raise additional funding in the future, we may be forced to scale back our business plan, sell assets to satisfy outstanding debts or take other remedial steps.

These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months. The accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company has provided a discussion of significant accounting policies, estimates and judgments in its 2014 Annual Report. There have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies since March 31, 2014.

NOTE 4 – PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Oil and Gas Properties

Lucas uses the full cost method of accounting for oil and gas producing activities. Costs to acquire mineral interests in oil and gas properties, to drill and equip exploratory wells used to find proved reserves, and to drill and equip development wells including directly related overhead costs and related asset retirement costs are capitalized. Properties not subject to amortization consist of acquisition, exploration and development costs, which are evaluated on a property-by-property basis. Amortization of these unproved property costs begins when the properties become proved or their values become impaired and the corresponding costs are added to the capitalized costs subject to amortization. Costs of oil and gas properties are amortized using the units of production method. Amortization expense calculated per equivalent physical unit of production amounted to $36.20 per barrel of oil equivalent (“BOE”) for the three months ended December 31, 2014, and was $38.11 per BOE for the three months ended December 31, 2013 . Amortization expense calculated per equivalent physical unit of production amounted to $36.28 per BOE for the nine months ended December 31, 2014, and was $37.14 per BOE for the nine months ended December 31, 2013 .

In applying the full cost method, Lucas performs an impairment test (ceiling test) at each reporting date, whereby the carrying value of property and equipment is compared to the “estimated present value,” of its proved reserves discounted at a 10-percent interest rate of future net revenues, based on current economic and operating conditions at the end of the period, plus the cost of properties not being amortized, plus the lower of cost or fair market value of unproved properties included in costs being amortized, less the income tax effects related to book and tax basis differences of the properties. The price used in the ceiling test is the simple average first of the month price for the prior 12 months. If capitalized costs exceed this limit, the excess is charged as an impairment expense. As of December 31, 2014, no impairment of oil and gas properties was indicated.

All of Lucas's oil and gas properties are located in the United States. Below are the components of Lucas's oil and gas properties recorded at:


	December 31,			March 31,
	2014			2014
Proved leasehold costs	$	10,942,198		$	11,354,136
Costs of wells and development		37,862,871			37,447,018
Capitalized asset retirement costs		717,337			752,915
Total oil and gas properties		49,522,406			49,554,069
Accumulated depreciation and depletion		(12,058,355	)		(10,991,064	)
Net capitalized costs	$	37,464,051		$	38,563,005

On August 26, 2014, the Company signed a binding participation agreement with Earthstone Energy, Inc., formally known as Oak Valley Resources LLC (“Earthstone”), to jointly develop the Company's Karnes County, Texas acreage in the Eagle Ford shale formation. At closing on August 31, 2014, Lucas received $444,285 for a 50% working interest on approximately 400 acres. Earthstone will manage the drilling of the wells and each company will bear 50% of the drilling and completion costs. Once the wells are on production and initial oil sales begin, all revenues and operating costs will also be split between the parties on a 50% basis each. The first well was expected to be spudded in early January 2015; however, due to the recent and significant decline in oil prices and rig scheduling, the first well is now expected to be spudded some time during our fiscal year 2016 first quarter. The joint venture expects to drill a minimum of two wells on the property. On September 2, 2014, Lucas obtained a new lease and was able to increase its Eagle Ford shale working interest share in certain Gonzales County, Texas properties from 15% to 100%. As a result, we capitalized approximately $228,000 in leasehold costs.

On October 10, 2014, the Company completed the sale of its 100% working interest in oil and gas leases and wells/wellbores in Madison County, Texas for $700,000. The cash transaction included approximately 450 net mineral acres primarily in the Buda and Glen Rose formations. Management determined this acreage to be non-core and has utilized the proceeds to purchase leaseholds in Gonzales County, Texas in addition to debt service and for general corporate purposes.

NOTE 5 – ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS

The following table presents the reconciliation of the beginning and ending aggregate carrying amounts of long-term legal obligations associated with the retirement of oil and gas property and equipment for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2014. Lucas does not have short-term asset retirement obligations as of December 31, 2014.

Carrying amount at beginning of period - March 31, 2014	$	978,430
Accretion		63,973
Reduction for sale of oil and gas property		(36,883	)
Carrying amount at end of period - December 31, 2014	$	1,005,520

NOTE 6 – NOTE PAYABLE

Effective on August 13, 2013, Lucas entered into a Letter Loan Agreement with Louise H. Rogers (the “Letter Loan”). In connection with the Letter Loan and a Promissory Note entered into in connection therewith, Ms. Rogers loaned the Company $7.5 million (the “Loan”). The Loan accrues interest at the rate of 12% per annum (18% upon the occurrence of an event of default), can be prepaid by Lucas at any time without penalty after November 13, 2013 and is due and payable on August 13, 2015, provided that $75,000 in interest only payments were due on the Loan during the first six months of the term (which were escrowed by Lucas) and beginning on March 13, 2014, Lucas was required to make monthly amortization principal payments equivalent to the sum of fifty-percent of the Loan during months seven through twenty-four of the term (which requirement has since been modified by the amendment described below). An escrow deposit of $450,000 for the first six months interest was recorded as restricted cash within the balance sheet, with no balance outstanding on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2014. Lucas is also required to make mandatory prepayments of the loan in the event the collateral securing the Loan does not meet certain thresholds and coverage ratios. The repayment of the Loan is secured by a security interest in substantially all of Lucas’s assets which was evidenced by a Security Agreement and a Mortgage, Deed of Trust, Assignment, Security Agreement, Financing Statement and Fixture Filing. Lucas agreed to pay a $15,000 quarterly administrative fee in connection with the Loan and grant the administrator a warrant to purchase up to 279,851 shares of Lucas’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.35 per share and a term continuing until the earlier of (a) August 13, 2018; and (b) three years after the payment in full of the Loan. On August 16, 2013, a portion of the funds raised in connection with the Loan were used to repay $3.25 million in outstanding notes issued in April and May 2013. The Company also capitalized approximately $480,000 in deferred financing costs in relation to expenses incurred in the execution of the Letter Loan.

The Company recorded the fair value of warrants issued in connection with the Note Payable as a discount on the Note and amortizes the discount through non-cash interest expense using the effective interest method over the term of the debt. The fair value of the 279,851 Letter Loan warrants was recorded as a $127,963 debt discount, of which, $90,644 has been amortized as of December 31, 2014.

Effective on April 29, 2014, the Company entered into an Amended Letter Loan Agreement (the “Amended Letter Loan”) and Amended and Restated Promissory Note (the “Amended Note”), each effective March 14, 2014, in connection with the Letter Loan. Pursuant to the Amended Letter Loan and Amended Note, we restructured the repayment terms of the original Letter Loan and Promissory Note to defer monthly amortizing principal payments which began on March 13, 2014, during the period from April 13, 2014 through September 13, 2014, during which six month period interest on the Amended Note accrued at 15% per annum (compared to 12% per annum under the terms of the original Promissory Note). Beginning on October 13, 2014, the interest rate of the Amended Note returned to 12% per annum and we were required to pay the monthly amortization payments in accordance with the original repayment schedule (which total approximately $205,000 to $226,000, depending on the due date), as well as additional principal amortization payments of approximately $266,000 every three months (beginning October 13, 2014, and ending on July 13, 2015) until maturity, with approximately $3.87 million due on maturity, which maturity date remained August 13, 2015. Additionally, we agreed to pay all legal expenses of the lender related to the amendments and agreed to (i) pay $25,000 and (ii) issue 75,000 shares of restricted common stock, to Robertson Global Credit, LLC (“Robertson”), the administrator of the Loan, as additional consideration for the modifications. Should we opt to prepay the Amended Note prior to the maturity date, we are required to pay an exit fee equal to the advisory fees of approximately $15,000 per quarter that would have been due, had the note remained outstanding through maturity.

The Company capitalized approximately $80,000 in additional deferred financing costs in relation to expenses incurred in connection with the execution of the Amended Letter Loan. Together, with the initial Letter Loan and the Amended Letter Loan, the Company has paid approximately $1.3 million in cash interest and amortized approximately $380,000 in deferred financing cost as of December 31, 2014.

On November 24, 2014, and effective on November 13, 2014, the Company entered into a Second Amended Letter Loan Agreement (the “Second Amended Letter Loan”) and Second Amended and Restated Promissory Note (the “Second Amended Note”), in connection with the Letter Loan and the Amended Letter Loan. Pursuant to the Second Amended Letter Loan and Second Amended Note, we restructured the repayment terms of the Amended Letter Loan and Amended Note to defer the principal payment in the amount of $428,327 which was originally due on November 13, 2014, until December 13, 2014, as we were in the process of obtaining new financing, which new financing failed to close as a result of the subsequent precipitous decline in oil prices. Additionally, the Second Amended Letter Loan and Second Amended Note provides that (a) amounts outstanding under the Second Amended Note will accrue interest at the rate of 15% per annum and (b) additional principal amortization payments of approximately $266,000 are due every three months (beginning January 13, 2015, and ending on July 13, 2015) until maturity, with approximately $3.87 million due on maturity, which maturity date remained August 13, 2015. Additionally, we agreed to pay all legal expenses of the lender related to the amendments and agreed to pay $15,000 to Robertson Global Credit, LLC (“Robertson”), the administrator of the Loan, as additional consideration for the modifications.

We failed to make the required December 13, 2014 principal payment under the terms of the Second Amended Letter Loan. Specifically, on January 26, 2015, we received notice from a representative of Ms. Rogers that we had defaulted on a payment. Consequently, the amount owed under the Second Amended Letter Loan and Second Amended Note of approximately $7.1 million will accrue at a default interest rate of 18% per annum. No further action has been taken by Ms. Rogers to date, who has waived required interest payments, which we also failed to pay, that were due in January 2015 and February 2015. Ms. Rogers has also reserved the right to enter into an amended agreement with Lucas at any time or enforce any and all other rights under the Second Amended Letter Loan as a result of such default. Subsequently, we also failed to make the required January 13, 2015 and February 13, 2015 principal payments under the terms of the Second Amended Letter Loan.

The Second Amended Note still has an August 31, 2015 maturity date; therefore, the outstanding balance of the Note Payable is $7,021,646 (net of the remaining $37,319 note discount) and listed as a current liability in the balance sheet as of December 31, 2014.

NOTE 7 – STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

As of December 31, 2014, the Company has 500 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock issued and outstanding. Each share of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into 1,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and has no liquidation preference and no maturity date. Additionally, the conversion rate of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock adjusts automatically in connection with and in proportion to any dividends payable by the Company in common stock.

Net proceeds or fair market value on grant date, as applicable.

On April 15, 2014, the Company agreed to sell an aggregate of 3,333,332 units to certain institutional investors at a purchase price of $0.60 per unit or $2 million in aggregate, with each unit consisting of one share of common stock (the “Shares”) and 0.50 of a warrant to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share and a term of five years (the “Warrants”, and collectively with the Shares, the “Units”). On April 21, 2014, the offering closed, and the Company subsequently received an aggregate of $2,000,000 in gross funding and a net of approximately $1.8 million (after deducting associated legal and placement agent fees). In total, the Company sold 3,333,332 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 1,666,666 shares of common stock. The Company used the funds raised in the offering to pay expenses related to lease operating, workover activities and for general corporate purposes, including general and administrative expenses.

On April 29, 2014, in connection with our entry into the Amended Letter Loan Agreement (see “Note 6. Notes Payable”), we agreed to issue 75,000 shares of restricted common stock at a purchase price of $0.63 per share (the closing sales price of the Company’s common stock on April 29, 2014), to Robertson Global Credit, LLC (“Robertson”), the administrator of the Loan, as additional consideration for the modifications. The listing of the shares was formally approved by the NYSE MKT LLC on May 8, 2014 and subsequently issued to Robertson on May 16, 2014.

Effective October 21, 2014, the holder of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock converted 1,500 shares of such Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into 1,500,000 shares of our common stock.

See Note 9 – Share-Based Compensation for information on common stock activity related to Share-Based Compensation, including shares granted to the board of directors, officers, employees and consultants.

During the nine months ended December 31, 2014, no warrants were exercised or cancelled. As discussed above, the Company granted warrants to purchase 1,666,666 shares with an exercise price of $1.00 per share and a term of five years in connection with the sale of units in the Company’s unit offering in April 2014. The warrants are treated as an equity instrument since the exercise price and shares are known and fixed at the date of issuance, and no other clause in the agreement requires the warrants to be treated as a liability.

The following is a summary of the Company's outstanding warrants at December 31, 2014:

The Company was not assessed any Texas state franchise taxes in the prior year.

NOTE 9 – SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

Lucas measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award over the vesting period.

Lucas issued 69,150 shares of its common stock with an aggregate grant date fair value of $31,781 during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2014, which were valued based on the trading value of Lucas’s common stock on the date of grant. The shares were awarded according to the employment agreements with certain officers and other managerial personnel .

Of the Company’s outstanding options, no options were exercised or forfeited during the nine months ended December 31, 2014.

The following table sets forth stock option activity for the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2014 and 2013:

Overview

Lucas Energy, Inc., a Nevada corporation, is an independent oil and natural gas company based in Houston, Texas (herein the “Company”, “Lucas”, “Lucas Energy” or “we”). We are engaged in the acquisition and development of crude oil and natural gas from various known productive geological formations, including the Austin Chalk and Eagle Ford formations, primarily in Gonzales, Wilson and Karnes counties south of the city of San Antonio, Texas.

We continue to operate with sound judgment keeping lower overall costs as a priority while pursuing a strategic partnership, acquisitions and mergers with a focus on development of reserves, increasing revenue and improving shareholder value. As to be expected, the Company has been in a production maintenance mode through this process, and the minimal capital outlay for development has curbed the expected decline in costs on a per barrel basis.

The Company is taking an aggressive growth posture toward developing our leaseholds through partnering with a highly-regarded operator of oil and gas properties in the Eagle Ford shale play. The magnitude of the opportunity in the Eagle Ford shale and associated drilling costs will require external sources of capital, and we will continue to utilize combinations of debt and equity in conjunction with operating cash flow to fund the development of our leaseholds into oil producing assets. It is our objective to “right-size” our development program, operating expenses and capital requirements in accordance with our strategy to unlock the Company’s full potential and to grow in both size and scope of operations.

The goal and planned end result of our near-term activity will be to create a company with a sturdy platform capable of delivering on the long expected conversion of reserves to production, continued long term development and sustainable shareholder value.

Our website address is http://www.lucasenergy.com. Our fiscal year ends on the last day of March of each year. The information on, or that may be accessed through, our website is not incorporated by reference into this report and should not be considered a part of this report. We refer to the twelve-month periods ended March 31, 2015 and March 31, 2014 as our 2015 Fiscal Year and 2014 Fiscal Year, respectively.

At December 31, 2014, the Company had leasehold interests (working interests) in approximately 11,000 gross acres, or 10,000 net acres, which is the Company’s total net developed and undeveloped acreage as measured from the surface to the base of the Austin Chalk formation. In deeper formations, the Company has approximately 3,300 net acres in the Eagle Ford oil window and 400 net acres in the Eaglebine, Buda and Glen Rose oil bearing formations.

At the end of December 2014, Lucas was producing an average of approximately 105 net barrels of oil equivalent per day (BOEPD) from 26 active well bores, of which 16 wells accounted for more than 90% of our production. The ratio between the gross and net production varies due to varied working interests and net revenue interests in each well.

We operate over 90% of our producing wells, except three wells producing from the Eagle Ford of which two wells are being operated by an affiliate of Marathon Oil Corporation, which wells we have a 15% working interest on, and one well which is being operated by Penn Virginia Corporation (PVA), of which we have a 1.48% working interest. Late in our fiscal year 2014, PVA completed the horizontal well in the Eagleville field in Lavaca County, Texas. During its first 24 hours, the well flowed at the rate of 1,651 barrels of oil per day (BOPD) and 1,512 thousand cubic feet per day (Mcfd), and although Lucas’s working interest is only 1.48%, we believe the well exemplifies the quality and potential of our leasehold in the Eagleford play. Recently, we entered into agreements with PVA for participation in five additional wells with working interest ranging from 1.48% to 3.28% in the Eagleville field (see also “Note 2 – Liquidity and Going Concern Considerations” to our unaudited condensed financial statements included in “Part 1. Financial Statements” – “Item 1. Financial Statements”, above).

At March 31, 2014, Lucas Energy's total estimated net proved reserves were 5.6 million barrels of oil equivalent (BOE), of which 5.0 million barrels (BBLs) were crude oil reserves, and 3.3 billion cubic feet (BCF) were natural gas reserves. Approximately 3% of the BOE was proved producing. As of December 31, 2014, Lucas employed 11 full-time employees. We also utilized over six contractors on an "as-needed" basis to carry out various functions of the Company, including but not limited to field operations, land administration, corporate activity and information technology maintenance. As of the date of this report, the Company has reduced its workforce staff to six full-time employees and three contractors.

Industry Segments

Lucas Energy's operations are all crude oil and natural gas exploration and production related.

Operations and Oil and Gas Properties

We operate in known productive areas in order to decrease geological risk. Our holdings are located in an increased area of current industry activity in Gonzales, Wilson, Karnes, Frio and Leon counties in Texas. We concentrate on three vertically adjoining formations in Gonzales, Wilson and Karnes counties: the Austin Chalk, Eagle Ford and Buda formations, listed in the order of increasing depth measuring from land surface. The recent development of the Eagle Ford as a high potential producing zone has heightened industry interest and success. Lucas’s acreage position is in the oil window of the Eagle Ford trend and has approximately 10,200 gross acres in the Gonzales, Karnes and Wilson County, Texas area.

Austin Chalk

The Company’s original activity started in Gonzales County by acquiring existing shut-in and stripper wells and improving production from those wells. Most of the wells had produced from the Austin Chalk. The Austin Chalk is a dense limestone, varying in thickness along its trend from approximately 200 feet to more than 800 feet. It produces by virtue of localized fractures within the formation.

Eagle Ford

On Lucas’s leases, the Eagle Ford is a porous limestone with organic shale matter. The Eagle Ford formation directly underlies the Austin Chalk formation and is believed to be the primary source of oil and natural gas produced from the Austin Chalk. Reservoir thickness in the area of the Company’s leases varies from approximately 60 feet to 80 feet.

Our Strategic Path

During the calendar year 2014, we began to reposition the Company with a more aggressive focus on the Eagle Ford shale. On August 26, 2014 the Company announced the signing of a binding participation agreement with Earthstone Energy, Inc., formally known as Oak Valley Resources, LLC (“Earthstone”), to jointly develop the Company's Karnes County, Texas acreage in the Eagle Ford shale formation. This was our first planned step to create a larger entity which we anticipate enhancing shareholder value. The Company also indicated that it was actively reviewing numerous additional strategic alternatives including strategic partnership(s), asset or corporate acquisitions, development funding and/or merger opportunities. The Company was also scheduled to close on a corporate financing transaction on or before December 3, 2014, but the severe decline in crude oil prices delayed that process and in fact ultimately led to the transaction falling through.

Thereafter, management refocused and was pleased to announce on February 4, 2015, the entry into a Letter of Intent and Term Sheet for a proposed business combination with Victory Energy Corporation (OTCQX: VYEY) ("Victory"), a growing Permian Basin focused oil and gas company. The business combination is contingent on the parties completing due diligence, the mutual negotiation of definitive documents, regulatory approvals and the registration of the securities to be issued to Victory shareholders in the transaction, as well as other customary closing conditions. Additionally, Victory and Lucas are negotiating the terms of a funding agreement that is anticipated to provide the capital necessary for Lucas to satisfy its obligations for several Eagle Ford wells, critical accounts payable and to provide the working capital during the period prior to the consummation of the business combination.

We believe that companies with more scale in our specific geology can spread fixed operating expenses over a larger base of production and access more favorable financing terms and ultimately resulting in higher per share valuations. We benefit from the increasing number of wells drilled and the corresponding data available from public and governmental sources surrounding our acreage which we continually review and assess. This activity and data has defined the geographic extent of the Eagle Ford formation and we believe confirms in a number of cases the economic viability of our acreage. In addition, leading operators have developed drilling and completion technologies that have significantly reduced production risk and decreased per unit drilling and completion costs. We believe that our planned combination with Victory, and the associated funding associated therewith, will lead our Company to greater scale and normalized operating expenses.

We continue to benefit from having an experienced management team. Through this period of oil price uncertainty, we benefit from the proven merger and acquisition, and operating and financing, capabilities of our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Anthony Schnur, and the rest of the Company’s management team and directors. Mr. Schnur has over twenty years of extensive oil and gas and financial management experience. He has developed strategic business plans, raised debt and equity capital, and provided asset management, cash flow forecasts, transaction modeling and development planning for both start-ups and special situations. On three separate occasions, Mr. Schnur has been asked to lead work-out/turn-around initiatives in the E&P space. Further, the Company has highly experienced personnel in its operations, reservoir analysis, land and accounting functions and believes it has brought together a professional and dedicated team to deliver value to Lucas’s shareholders.

Liquidity and Going Concern Consideration

Moving forward, the Company anticipates requiring approximately $8.0 million of additional funding over the next several months in order to participate in the drilling activities contemplated by the August 2014 participation agreement with Earthstone Energy, Inc., formally known as Oak Valley Resources (“Earthstone”) (see "Note 4 Property and Equipment" to our unaudited condensed financial statements included in “Part 1. Financial Statements” – “Item 1. Financial Statements”, above). We also anticipate requiring additional funding of approximately $1.3 million for the current participation in the drilling of five Penn Virginia (“PVA”) wells and for any additional drilling and workover activities on existing properties. In order to address the Company’s capital obligations over the next several months and per the executed term sheet with Victory, the Company expects that funding of these obligations will come from a variety of sources, including certain affiliates of Victory. The Company anticipates these sources providing total funding of approximately $12 million during the business combination with Victory, with additional funding for post-closing debt reduction and expansion to exceed $8 million. The Company expects that as part of the proposed transaction, and funding permitting, seven of the Company’s high-grade Eagle Ford wells with varying working interests will be funded and brought into production during the period from February through June of 2015, provided that certain interests in such wells and proceeds therefrom will be transferred to and/or owned by Victory or its affiliates. Based on nearby EOG Resources and Marathon Oil well production volumes, in addition to internal economic reservoir calculations, the Company anticipates that the monthly production revenue from these combined wells will exceed $1.1 million of revenue to the Company’s interest, assuming a price per barrel of oil of $50, which would bring the Company into a positive cash-flow position and add significant proved producing reserves to the combined 2015 Company portfolio.

We failed to make the required December 13, 2014 principal payment under the terms of the Second Amended Letter Loan (see “Note 6 – Note Payable” to our unaudited condensed financial statements included in “Part 1. Financial Statements” – “Item 1. Financial Statements”, above). Specifically, on January 26, 2015, we received notice from a representative of our lender that we had defaulted on a payment. Consequently, the amount owed under the Second Amended Letter Loan of approximately $7.1 million will accrue at a default interest rate of 18% per annum. No further action has been taken by our lender, who has waived certain required interest payments, which we also failed to pay, that were due in January 2015 and February 2015. The lender has also reserved the right to enter into an amended agreement with Lucas at any time or to enforce any of her other rights under the Second Amended Loan Agreement as a result of such default. Subsequently, we also failed to make the required January 13, 2015 and February 13, 2015 principal payments under the terms of the Second Amended Letter Loan.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of the results of operations for the three-month and nine-months periods ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 should be read in conjunction with the condensed financial statements of Lucas Energy and notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. As used below, the abbreviations "Bbls" stands for barrels, "NGL" stands for natural gas liquids, "Mcf" for thousand cubic feet and "Boe" for barrels of oil equivalent on the basis of six Mcf per barrel. The majority of the numbers presented below are rounded numbers and should be considered as approximate.

Three Months Ended December 31, 2014 vs. Three Months Ended December 31, 2013

We reported a net loss for the three months ended December 31, 2014 of $1.3 million, or $0.04 per share. For the same period a year ago, we reported a net loss of $1.1 million, or $0.04 per share. As discussed in more detail below, our net loss increased by approximately $0.2 million primarily due to a decrease in sales revenue of approximately $0.7 million and an increase in other expenses of $0.1 million, offset by a decrease of approximately $0.6 million in operating expenses.

The following table sets forth the operating results and production data for the three-month periods ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. There were no reportable natural gas sales.

	Three Months Ended
	December 31,
					Increase			% Increase
	2014		2013		(Decrease)			(Decrease)
Sale Volumes:
Crude Oil (Bbls)		9,668		14,541		(4,873	)		(34%)

Crude Oil (Bbls per day)		105		158		(53	)		(34%)

Average Sale Price:
Crude Oil ($/Bbl)	$	70.63	$	93.54	$	(22.91	)		(24%)


Net Operating Revenues:
Crude Oil	$	682,803	$	1,360,131	$	(677,328	)		(50%)

Oil and Gas Revenues

Total crude oil revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2014 decreased approximately $0.7 million, or 50%, to $0.7 million from $1.4 million for the same period a year ago due primarily to an unfavorable crude oil volume variance of $0.33 million coupled with an unfavorable crude oil price variance of $0.34 million. The production decline can be attributed to workover drilling and lateral programs with higher front-end production in the prior reporting period coupled with production declines primarily related to interference from offset activity in the current period.

Operating and Other Expenses

The following table summarizes our production costs and operating expenses for the periods indicated:

	Three Months Ended December 31,				Increase			% Increase

Other Expense (Income), Net		100,998		9,968		91,030			913%

Lease Operating Expenses

There was a decrease in lease operating expense of approximately $0.2 million highlighted by a 69% reduction in workovers when comparing the current quarter to the prior year period. In total, the overall lease operating expenses decreased 39% for the current period as compared to the prior period. Over the past year, the Company has maintained a concerted effort to keep lease operating expenses at lower levels by improving operating efficiencies and cost reductions.

Depreciation, Depletion, Amortization and Accretion (DD&A)

DD&A decreased for the current quarter as compared to the prior year period by approximately $0.2 million primarily related to a decrease in production of 4,873 Boe compared to the previous period. As noted above, the production decline can be attributed to drilling and lateral programs with higher front-end production in the prior reporting period coupled with production declines primarily related to interference from offset activity in the current period.

General and Administrative (G&A) Expenses and Share-Based Compensation

G&A expenses decreased by approximately $0.2 million for the current quarter as compared to the prior year’s period primarily due to the Company’s overall focus in improving the efficiency of the daily operating activities within the Company by performing functions related to these expenses internally as opposed to engaging outside support and due to the restructuring of employee responsibilities and duties within the Company. Share-Based compensation also decreased by approximately 61% due to a decrease in employee based stock option and compensation costs. As a result, total G&A Expense decreased by 21% when comparing the current quarter to the prior period.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the three months ended December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 consisted of cash interest payments, amortization of discounts and deferred financing costs of approximately $0.3 million made in relation to the Letter Loan issued in August 2013 and amended in April 2014 and then again in November 2014 (see “Note 6. Notes Payable” to our unaudited condensed financial statements included in “Part 1. Financial Statements” – “Item 1. Financial Statements”, above).

Other Expense (Income), Net

Other Expense (Income) for the three months ended December 31, 2014, primarily consisted of approximately $0.1 million in financing and settlement fees compared to the prior year period which primarily consisted of $15,000 in financing fees offset by $3,500 in discounts from accounts payable settlements and a $1,000 gain from the sale of old vehicles.

Nine Months Ended December 31, 2014 vs. Nine Months Ended December 31, 2013

We reported a net loss for the nine months ended December 31, 2014 of approximately $4.0 million, or $0.12 per share. For the same period a year ago, we reported a net loss of approximately $3.6 million, or $0.13 per share. Although our net revenues decreased by approximately $1.4 million when comparing the current period to the prior period, the decrease in net revenues was offset by a corresponding decrease in operating expenses of approximately $1.4 million, which resulted in no material change to net operating income when comparing the two periods. As discussed in more detail below, our $0.4 million increase in net loss was primarily due to an approximately $0.2 million increase in interest expense and an approximately $0.2 million increase in other expenses.

The following table sets forth the operating results and production data for the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. There were no reportable natural gas sales.

	Nine Months Ended

Net Operating Revenues:
Crude Oil	$	2,617,668	$	4,070,060	$	(1,452,392	)		(36%)

Oil and Gas Revenues

Total crude oil revenues for the nine months ended December 31, 2014 decreased approximately $1.4 million, or 36%, to $2.6 million from $4.1 million for the same period a year ago due primarily to an unfavorable crude oil volume variance of $1.0 million coupled with an unfavorable crude oil price variance of $0.4 million. The production decline is primarily related to two of the Company’s top producing wells being shut-in for approximately 15 days and one additional top producing well being shut-in for two months during the early part of current reporting period resulting in approximately $0.6 million less in production sales when compared to the prior period. Additional decreases of approximately $0.4 million can be attributed to workover drilling and lateral programs with higher front-end production in the prior reporting period when compared to the current period.

Operating and Other Expenses

The following table summarizes our production costs and operating expenses for the periods indicated:

Lease Operating Expenses

In total, the overall lease operating expenses decreased approximately $0.5 million or 29% for the current period as compared to the prior period. Included in the total number was a significant decrease in workovers of approximately $0.4 million or 48% when comparing the current quarter to the prior year period. Over the past year, the Company has maintained a concerted effort to keep lease operating expenses at lower levels by improving operating efficiencies and cost reductions.

Depreciation, Depletion, Amortization and Accretion (DD&A)

DD&A decreased for the current period as compared to the prior year period by approximately $0.5 million primarily related to a decrease in production of 11,946 Boe compared to the previous period. As noted above, the production decrease was primarily due to three of the Company’s top producing wells being shut-in during the reporting period and drilling and lateral programs with higher front-end production when compared to the prior period.

General and Administrative (G&A) Expenses and Share-Based Compensation

During the current period, the Company experienced a decline in G&A expenses of approximately $0.3 million when compared to the prior year’s period despite incurring additional G&A expenses during the current period for approximately $0.3 million of one-time legal expenses, investment banking fees and other transaction costs pursuant to certain strategic alternatives that have since been abandoned. The approximately $0.3 million decrease in G&A plus a 56% reduction in share-based compensation expense which resulted in an approximately $0.5 million decrease in the total G&A expenses when comparing the current period to the prior period.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the nine months ended December 31, 2014 consisted of cash interest payments, amortization of discounts and deferred financing costs of approximately $1.1 million made in relation to the Letter Loan issued in August 2013 and amended in April 2014 and then again in November 2014 (see “Note 6. Notes Payable” to our unaudited condensed financial statements included in “Part 1. Financial Statements” – “Item 1. Financial Statements”, above). When compared to the same period a year ago, which primarily related to incurred interest expenses of approximately $0.9 million on the Letter Loan and notes issued in April 2013 and May 2013, there was an increase of approximately $0.2 million in interest expense. The notes issued in April 2013 and May 2013 and corresponding interest were paid in full in August 2013.

Other Expense (Income), Net

Other Expense (Income) for the nine months ended December 31, 2014, primarily consisted of approximately $183,000 in financing and settlement fees pursuant to certain strategic alternatives that have since been abandoned offset by approximately $20,000 in accounts payable settlements in the current period compared to approximately $88,000 in financing fees offset by approximately $105,000 in discounts from accounts payable settlements, approximately $2,000 in office space rental income from our former Gonzales County office and a $1,000 gain from the sale of old vehicles from the prior period.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The primary sources of cash for Lucas during the nine months ended December 31, 2014 were funds generated from sales of crude oil, asset sales and funds raised through the sale of common stock. The primary uses of cash were funds used in operations and repayment of borrowings.

Working Capital

On April 21, 2014, the Company closed a registered direct offering of $2,000,000 (approximately $1.8 million net, after deducting commissions and other expenses) of securities, representing 3,333,332 units, each consisting of one share of common stock and 0.50 of one warrant to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share to certain institutional investors (see “Note 7. Stockholders’ Equity” to our unaudited condensed financial statements included in “Part 1. Financial Statements” – “Item 1. Financial Statements”, above). The Company used the funds raised in the offering to pay down expenses related to lease operating, workover activities and for general corporate purposes, including general and administrative expenses.

On February 3, 2015, the Company executed a Letter of Intent and Term Sheet for a proposed business combination with Victory Energy Corporation (“Victory”) (see “Note 13 – Subsequent Events” to our unaudited condensed financial statements included in “Part 1. Financial Statements” – “Item 1. Financial Statements”, above). Victory and the Company are also negotiating the terms of a funding agreement that is anticipated to provide the capital necessary for the Company to satisfy its obligations for several Eagle Ford wells, critical accounts payable and to provide the Company with necessary working capital during the period prior to the consummation of the business combination.

Moving forward, the Company anticipates requiring approximately $8.0 million of additional funding over the next several months in order to participate in the drilling activities contemplated by the August 2014 participation agreement with Earthstone Energy, Inc., formally known as Oak Valley Resources (“Earthstone”)(see "Note 4 Property and Equipment" to our unaudited condensed financial statements included in “Part 1. Financial Statements” – “Item 1. Financial Statements”, above). We also anticipate requiring additional funding of approximately $1.3 million for the current participation in the drilling of five Penn Virginia (“PVA”) wells and for any additional drilling and workover activities on existing properties. In order to address the Company’s capital obligations over the next several months and per the executed term sheet with Victory, the Company expects that funding of these obligations will come from a variety of sources, including certain affiliates of Victory. The Company anticipates these sources providing total funding of approximately $12 million during the business combination with Victory, with additional funding for post-closing debt reduction and expansion to exceed $8 million. The Company expects that as part of the proposed transaction, and funding permitting, seven of the Company’s high-grade Eagle Ford wells with varying working interests will be funded and brought into production during the period from February through June of 2015, provided that certain interests in such wells and proceeds therefrom will be transferred to and/or owned by Victory or its affiliates. Based on nearby EOG Resources and Marathon Oil well production volumes, in addition to internal economic reservoir calculations, the Company anticipates that the monthly production revenue from these combined wells will exceed $1.1 million of revenue to the Company’s interest, assuming a price per barrel of oil of $50, which would bring the Company into a positive cash-flow position and add significant proved producing reserves to the combined 2015 company portfolio.

Cash Flows

	Nine Months Ended December 31,
	2014			2013
Cash flows used in operating activities		(1,168,775	)		(3,325,496	)
Cash flows used in investing activities		(606,666	)		(4,927,174	)
Cash flows provided by financing activities		1,519,616			9,252,735
Net increase (decrease) in cash		(255,825	)		1,000,065

Net cash used in operating activities was approximately $1.2 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to approximately $3.3 million for the same period a year ago. The decrease in net cash used in operating activities of approximately $2.1 million was due primarily to paying down all of the approximately $1.4 million in outstanding advances to working interest owners via a legal settlement in the prior year compared to an approximately $0.4 million increase in net loss in the current period as well as a decrease in production resulting in approximately $0.5 million less in depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion expenses which was offset by an approximately $0.2 million increase in changes to other components of working capital.

Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $0.6 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to net cash used in investing activities of $4.9 million for the same period a year ago. The decrease in net cash used in investing activities was primarily due to a $3.2 million reduction of additions to oil and gas properties and net proceeds of $1.3 million from the sale of oil and gas properties in the current period when compared to the prior period offset by approximately $0.2 million in additional net sales and additions of other property and equipment in the prior period.

Net cash provided by financing activities was approximately $1.5 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $9.2 million for the same period a year ago. The decrease in net cash provided by financing activities was primarily related to approximately $5.9 million of net proceeds from the sale of debt and related financing costs and changes to restricted cash and deferred financing costs in the prior period when compared to debt repayments and deferred financing costs of approximately $0.3 million in the current period. Also, there was approximately $1.5 million of additional net proceeds associated with the issuance of common stock in the prior period when compared to the net proceeds associated with the issuance of common stock in the current period.

Financing

On April 21, 2014, the Company closed a registered direct offering of $2,000,000 (approximately $1.8 million net, after deducting commissions and other expenses) of securities, representing 3,333,332 units, each consisting of one share of common stock and 0.50 of one warrant to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share to certain institutional investors (see “Note 7. Stockholders’ Equity”, to our unaudited condensed financial statements included in “Part 1. Financial Statements” – “Item 1. Financial Statements”, above). The Company used the funds raised in the offering to pay expenses related to lease operating, workover activities and for general corporate purposes, including general and administrative expenses.

Lucas plans to continue to focus a substantial portion of its capital expenditures in various known prolific and productive geological formations, including the Austin Chalk and Eagle Ford formations, primarily in Gonzales, Karnes, and Wilson Counties south of the city of San Antonio, Texas. Lucas expects capital expenditures to be greater than cash flow from operating activities for the remainder of the 2015 fiscal year and into fiscal 2016. To cover the anticipated shortfall, and as noted above, the Company executed a Letter of Intent and Term Sheet in connection with a proposed business combination with Victory and is negotiating the terms of a funding agreement that is anticipated to provide the capital necessary for Lucas to satisfy its obligations for several Eagle Ford wells, critical accounts payable and to provide Lucas with necessary working capital during the period prior to the consummation of the business combination.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices. We are exposed to risks related to increases in the prices of fuel and raw materials consumed in exploration, development and production. We do not engage in commodity price hedging activities.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures .

Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act)) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (our principal executive officer and principal financial officer), to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. The Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer (our principal executive officer and principal financial officer), evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer (our principal executive officer and principal financial officer) concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2014.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended December 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.

Lucas is periodically named in legal actions arising from normal business activities. Lucas evaluates the merits of these actions and, if it determines that an unfavorable outcome is probable and can be reasonably estimated, Lucas will establish the necessary reserves.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2014, filed with the Commission on June 27, 2014, except as provided below and investors should review the risks provided below and in the Form 10-K prior to making an investment in the Company.

There is no guarantee that our proposed business combination with Victory will be consummated and the failure to consummate such business combination could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

As described above, in February 2015, we entered into a letter of intent with Victory pursuant to which the parties agreed to a framework whereby Victory will merge with and into the Company. The business combination is contingent on the parties completing due diligence, the mutual negotiation of definitive documents, regulatory approvals and the registration of the securities to be issued to Victory shareholders in the transaction, as well as other customary closing conditions. The combination is also contingent upon us maintaining the listing of our common stock on the NYSE MKT. We and Victory may be unable to mutually agree on a definitive agreement, the results of our, or Victory’s due diligence may not be satisfactory, or, assuming we enter into a definitive agreement with Victory in the future, the conditions to closing the transaction may not be met. This transaction represents a significant business opportunity for us. If we fail to complete the transaction or the transaction is not successful, our anticipated business and results of operations could be adversely affected, we could be forced to scale back or curtail our operations or sell off our assets, and our securities could become worthless.

It is currently contemplated that Victory’s shareholders will obtain a majority of our outstanding voting securities and control of our Board of Directors in connection with the proposed combination transaction.

We currently anticipate that as a result of the proposed business combination with Victory, Victory’s shareholders will be issued a majority of our voting securities, resulting in substantial dilution to our current shareholders. We further anticipate that persons nominated or appointed by Victory will represent a majority of the members of our Board of Directors post-closing and that certain current officers of Victory will become officers of the combined company. As such, shareholders will be diluted by the combination transaction and new individuals will be in control of the management of the Company, which individuals may have different plans, goals or ideals than current management, which plans, goals or ideas, could ultimately negatively affect the Company, its prospects, shareholders and the value of its securities.

We require financing to execute our business plan, fund capital program requirements and repay our outstanding liabilities.

Victory and Lucas are negotiating the terms of a funding agreement that is anticipated to provide the capital necessary for Lucas to satisfy its obligations for several Eagle Ford wells, critical accounts payable and to provide the working capital during the period prior to the consummation of the business combination. No funding agreements or definitive terms have been agreed to as of the date of this filing and we may not be successful in obtaining financing from Victory on attractive terms, if at all. We currently have no committed source of additional cash funding as of the date of this report and are in default in connection with the payment of our obligations to our senior lender. If we are unable to raise funding in the future, we could be forced to scale back or curtail our operations or sell off our assets, and our securities could become worthless.

We currently owe significant funds under an outstanding promissory note, the repayment of which is secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of our assets, which promissory note is currently in default.

Effective on August 13, 2013, we entered into a Letter Loan Agreement with Louise H. Rogers, amended effective April 29, 2014 and then again Effective November 13, 2014 (the “Letter Loan”). In connection with the Letter Loan and a Promissory Note entered into in connection therewith, Ms. Rogers loaned the Company $7.5 million (the “Loan“). Pursuant to the first Amended Letter Loan, interest only payments were due on the Loan during the first six months of the term and interest only payments were due during the period from April 13, 2014 through September 13, 2014 (during which six month period interest accrued at 15% per annum (compared to 12% per annum at all other times, except upon an event of default at which point the interest rate was to increase to 18% per annum)). Additionally, beginning on October 13, 2014, we were required to pay the monthly amortization payments (which total approximately $205,000 to $226,000, depending on the due date), as well as additional principal amortization payments of approximately $266,000 every three months (beginning October 13, 2014, and ending on July 13, 2015) until maturity (August 15, 2015), with approximately $3.87 million due on maturity. Pursuant to the Second Amended Letter Loan, the principal payment in the amount of $428,327 which was originally due on November 13, 2014, was extended until December 13, 2014, as we were in the process of obtaining new financing, which new financing failed to close as a result of the subsequent precipitous decline in oil prices, and the interest rate of the loan was increased to 15% per annum.

The repayment of the Loan is secured by a security interest in substantially all of our assets which was evidenced by a Security Agreement and a Mortgage, Deed of Trust, Assignment, Security Agreement, Financing Statement and Fixture Filing. We failed to make the required December 13, 2014 principal payment under the terms of the Second Amended Letter Loan (see “Note 6 – Note Payable” to our unaudited condensed financial statements included in “Part 1. Financial Statements” – “Item 1. Financial Statements”, above). Specifically, on January 26, 2015, we received notice from a representative of our lender that we had defaulted on a payment. Consequently, the amount owed under the Second Amended Letter Loan of approximately $7.1 million will accrue at a default interest rate of 18% per annum. No further action has been taken by our lender, who has waived certain required interest payments, which we also failed to pay, that were due in January 2015 and February 2015. The lender has also reserved the right to enter into an amended agreement with Lucas at any time or to enforce any of her other rights under the Second Amended Loan Agreement as a result of such default. Subsequently, we also failed to make the required January 13, 2015 and February 13, 2015 principal payments under the terms of the Second Amended Letter Loan.

If we fail to enter into a formal forbearance agreement, cure our defaults, negotiate a waiver of the defaults under the Second Amended Letter Loan, or restructure the Second Amended Letter Loan, our lender may exercise any and all rights and remedies available to it under the Second Amended Letter Loan, promissory note and deed of trust, including demanding immediate repayment of all amounts then outstanding or initiating foreclosure proceedings against us. As the Second Amended Letter Loan is secured by substantially all of our assets, there is a risk that if the lender were to request the immediate repayment of the amounts currently outstanding and we did not have, and could not timely raise, funds to repay such obligations, that the lender (or where applicable, its agent) could foreclose on our assets which could cause us to significantly curtail or cease operations.

Due to the above, the lender can elect to declare all amounts outstanding under the Second Amended Letter Loan, including accrued interest or other obligations, to be immediately due and payable. If amounts outstanding under such Second Amended Letter Loan were to be accelerated, our assets might not be sufficient to repay in full that indebtedness and our other indebtedness and we may not be able to raise funds from alternative sources to repay such obligations on favorable terms, on a timely basis, or at all. As such, the value of our securities may decline in value or become worthless in the event our lender accelerates the repayment of our outstanding obligations under the Second Amended Letter Loan, which as described above, is in default as of the filing of this report. Additionally, such defaults may harm our credit rating and our ability to obtain additional financing on acceptable terms.

If we are unable to regain compliance with NYSE MKT continued listing standards, our common stock may be delisted from the NYSE MKT equities market, which would likely cause the liquidity and market price of our common stock to decline.

Our common stock currently is listed on the NYSE MKT. The NYSE MKT will consider suspending dealings in, or delisting, securities of an issuer that does not meet its continued listing standards. If we cannot meet the NYSE MKT continued listing requirements, the NYSE MKT may delist our common stock, which could have an adverse impact on us and the liquidity and market price of our stock, and could also prevent us from completing the planned business combination with Victory.

On February 28, 2014, we received notice from the NYSE MKT, indicating we were below certain of the NYSE MKT’s continued listing standards related to our existing financial resources or financial condition as set forth in Part 10 of the NYSE MKT Company Guide. We were afforded the opportunity to submit a plan of compliance to the NYSE MKT, and on March 14, 2014, we submitted our plan to the NYSE MKT. On March 31, 2014, the NYSE MKT notified us that it had accepted our plan of compliance and granted us a conditional extension until April 14, 2014, which was subsequently extended until July 31, 2014, and again until October 31, 2014, and again until December 4, 2014, January 31, 2015, and again until March 31, 2015, by which date the Company is required to regain compliance with Section 1003(a) (iv) of the NYSE MKT Company Guide and/or demonstrate adequate progress to that end. If the NYSE MKT determines that we are not making sufficient progress consistent with our prior plan or that we remain in non-compliance with the continued listing standards, it could institute proceedings to delist us from the NYSE MKT.

There is no assurance that we will continue to maintain compliance with NYSE MKT continued listing standards. Our business has been and may continue to be affected by worldwide macroeconomic factors, which include uncertainties in the credit and capital markets. External factors that affect our stock price, such as liquidity requirements of our investors, as well as our performance, could impact our market capitalization, revenue and operating results, which, in turn, affect our ability to comply with the NYSE MKT’s listing standards. The NYSE MKT has the ability to suspend trading in our common stock or remove our common stock from listing on the NYSE MKT if in the opinion of the exchange: (a) the financial condition and/or operating results of the Company appear to be unsatisfactory; or (b) it appears that the extent of public distribution or the aggregate market value of our common stock has become so reduced as to make further dealings on the exchange inadvisable; or (c) we have sold or otherwise disposed of our principal operating assets, or have ceased to be an operating company; or (d) we have failed to comply with our listing agreements with the exchange; or (e) any other event shall occur or any condition shall exist which makes further dealings on the exchange unwarranted.

If we are unable to satisfy the NYSE MKT criteria for continued listing and are unable to regain compliance during any applicable cure periods, our common stock would be subject to delisting. A delisting of our common stock could negatively impact us by, among other things, reducing the liquidity and market price of our common stock and reducing the number of investors willing to hold or acquire our common stock, which could negatively impact our ability to raise equity financing. In addition, delisting from the NYSE MKT might negatively impact our reputation and, as a consequence, our business. Additionally, if we were delisted from the NYSE MKT and are not able to list our common stock on another national exchange we will no longer be eligible to use Form S-3 registration statements and will instead be required to file a Form S-1 registration statement for any primary or secondary offerings of our common stock, which would delay our ability to raise funds in the future, may limit the type of offerings of common stock we could undertake, and would increase the expenses of any offering, as, among other things, registration statements on Form S-1 are subject to SEC review and comments whereas take downs pursuant to a previously filed Form S-3 are not. Finally, delisting from the NYSE MKT will likely prohibit us from moving forward with our planned business combination with Victory.

If we are delisted from the NYSE MKT, your ability to sell your shares of our common stock would also be limited by the penny stock restrictions, which could further limit the marketability of your shares.

If our common stock is delisted, it would come within the definition of “penny stock” as defined in the Exchange Act and would be covered by Rule 15g-9 of the Exchange Act. That Rule imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. For transactions covered by Rule 15g-9, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction prior to the sale. Consequently, Rule 15g-9, if it were to become applicable, would affect the ability or willingness of broker-dealers to sell our securities, and accordingly would affect the ability of stockholders to sell their securities in the public market. These additional procedures could also limit our ability to raise additional capital in the future.

We face risks associated with the integration of the business, assets and operations of Victory, assuming we formalize a definitive combination agreement and are able to consummate such combination transaction.

Assuming the closing of the planned combination transaction with Victory, we may not be able to successfully integrate the business, assets and operations of Victory, or Victory’s employees into our operations and such transaction may not positively affect our operations and cash flow. Transactions such as the one proposed with Victory involve numerous risks, including difficulties in the assimilation of the acquired businesses. The consolidation of our operations with the operations of Victory, including the consolidation of systems, procedures, personnel and facilities and the achievement of anticipated cost savings, economies of scale and other business efficiencies presents significant challenges to our management. The transaction with Victory and/or our failure to successfully integrate acquired operations could have an adverse effect on our liquidity, financial condition and results of operations.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.

In October 2014, the holder of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock converted 1,500 shares of such Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into 1,500,000 shares of our common stock. The remaining 500 outstanding shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, if fully converted, would convert into 500,000 shares of our common stock.

We claim an exemption from registration afforded by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended for the above conversion as the securities were exchanged by the Company with its existing security holder exclusively in a transaction where no commission or other remuneration was paid or given directly or indirectly for soliciting such exchange.

Use of Proceeds from Sale of Registered Securities

Our Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Reg. No. 333-188663) in connection with the sale by us of up to $10 million in securities (common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants and units) was declared effective by the SEC on May 24, 2013.

On April 21, 2014, pursuant to the terms of the Registration Statement, the Company closed a registered direct offering of $2,000,000 (approximately $1.8 million net, after deducting commissions and other expenses) of shares of common stock to certain institutional investors. In total, the Company sold 3,333,332 shares of common stock (1,666,666 warrants to purchase shares of common stock and 1,666,666 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of warrants). The Company used the funds raised in the offering to pay down expenses related to drilling, lease operating, workover activities and for general corporate purposes, including general and administrative expenses.

No payments for our expenses were made in either offering described above directly or indirectly to (i) any of our directors, officers or their associates, (ii) any person(s) owning 10% or more of any class of our equity securities or (iii) any of our affiliates. We used the net proceeds from the offerings as described in our final prospectuses filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b).

There has been no material change in the planned use of proceeds from our offerings as described in our final prospectuses filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b).

ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION.

On November 24, 2014, and effective on November 13, 2014, the Company entered into a Second Amended Letter Loan Agreement (the “Second Amended Letter Loan”) and Second Amended and Restated Promissory Note (the “Second Amended Note”), in connection with the Letter Loan and the Amended Letter Loan. Pursuant to the Second Amended Letter Loan and Second Amended Note, we restructured the repayment terms of the Amended Letter Loan and Amended Note to defer the principal payment in the amount of $428,327 which was originally due on November 13, 2014, until December 13, 2014, as we were in the process of obtaining new financing, which new financing failed to close as a result of the subsequent precipitous decline in oil prices. Additionally, the Second Amended Letter Loan and Second Amended Note provides that (a) amounts outstanding under the Second Amendment Note will accrue interest at the rate of 15% per annum and (b) additional principal amortization payments of approximately $266,000 are due every three months (beginning January 13, 2015, and ending on July 13, 2015) until maturity, with approximately $3.87 million due on maturity, which maturity date remained August 13, 2015. Additionally, we agreed to pay all legal expenses of the lender related to the amendments and agreed to pay $15,000 to Robertson Global Credit, LLC (“Robertson”), the administrator of the Loan, as additional consideration for the modifications.

On February 17, 2015, the Company issued a press release discussing the Company's results of operations for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2014. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 10-Q.

Exhibit 10.10

SECOND AMENDED LETTER LOAN AGREEMENT

November 18, 2014, to be effective as of November 13, 2014

This Second Amended Letter Loan Agreement is intended to amend the Letter Loan Agreement between the parties dated August 13, 2013, and as previously amended effective March 14, 2014, regarding the loan from Louise H. Rogers, as her separate property, to Lucas Energy, Inc., in the original principal amount of $7,500,000.00, to reflect the parties’ agreement to restructure the loan effective as of November 13, 2014, as follows:

Mrs. Louise H. Rogers

c/o Sharon E. Conway

Attorney at Law

2441 High Timbers, Suite 410

The Woodlands, Texas 77380-1052

Dear Mrs. Rogers:

The undersigned, Lucas Energy, Inc. , a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of Nevada (“ LEI ”), with its principal place of business at 3555 Timmons Lane, Suite 1550, Houston, Texas, 77027, as Borrower, has requested that Louise H. Rogers (“ Rogers ”), as Lender, lend to LEI the sum of $7,500,000.00 as of August 13, 2013. Capitalized terms in this Second Amended Letter Loan Agreement (as may be amended from time to time, this “ Agreement ” or “ Amended Agreement ”) that are not defined in the text are defined in Schedule A, entitled “Definitions,” and Schedule A is incorporated by reference into this Agreement. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, LEI and Rogers agree as follows:

1. Loan.

a. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, Rogers agreed to and did lend to LEI on or about August 13, 2013, Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand 00/100 Dollars ($7,500,000.00) (the “ Loan ”). The Loan is evidenced by a Note duly executed by LEI in the original principal amount of Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand 00/100 Dollars ($7,500,000.00), dated August 13, 2013 (and amended and restated as of March 14, 2014, and as amended effective October 13, 2014), and made payable to the order of Rogers. Through March 13, 2014, principal and interest on the Note were due and payable in the manner and at the times set forth in the Note (as amended), mandatory prepayments on the Note were due and payable as set forth in the Loan Documents (as amended), and the entire unpaid balance of principal and interest on the Note and all other Obligations are due and payable on the Maturity Date (unless sooner accelerated in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents). Amounts repaid or prepaid on the Loan may not be re-borrowed under any circumstance. The terms and provisions of the Note are amended effective as of November 13, 2014, as set forth paragraphs 1(b) and 2 below. The Second Amended and Restated Promissory Note dated to be effective as of November 13, 2014, between Rogers and LEI is incorporated by reference into this Amended Agreement for all purposes as if fully set forth at length, and is included as one of the “Loan Documents” as that term is defined in Schedule A to this Amended Agreement and in any of the other Loan Documents.

b. As of November 12, 2014, LEI had adequately complied with the terms of the original Letter Loan Agreement and other Loan Documents dated August 13, 2013. On November 13, 2014, LEI made its interest payment due but requested that Rogers amend the due date for payment of principal due on that same date because LEI was in the process of refinancing the Loan and would pay all amounts of principal and interest due on the Loan upon closing of the refinancing, which was anticipated to occur before November 30, 2014. LEI made the interest payments due on or before (or if late, any late payments and fees were waived and not declared a Default by Rogers under the Loan Documents) September 13, 2013, October, 13, 2013, November 13, 2013, December 13, 2013, January 13, 2014, February 13, 2014, April 13, 2014, May 13, 2014, June 13, 2014, July 13, 2014, August 13, 2014, September 13, 2014, October 13, 2014, and November 13, 2014, and LEI made the principal and interest payment due on March 13, 2014, and made principal payments on April 13, May 13, June 13, July 13, August 13, September 13, and October 13, 2014, and thus reducing the principal amount now due under the Loan to $7,058,964.65. Per the verbal agreement of the parties, LEI made the April 13, 2014, interest-only payment one day late on April 14, 2014, and that verbal agreement is ratified by this Amended Agreement. Per the terms of the restructuring, the amount of interest due for the April 13, 2014, payment was $94,405.54, but LEI paid the amount of $73,088.17 as per the original terms of the Loan. LEI agreed to pay the difference in the interest payment due on April 13, 2014, of $21,317.37 on or before the closing date of this restructuring. LEI made this payment to Rogers on May 2, 2014, and Rogers has accepted this payment as being substantially in compliance with the agreement and waives any claim that it was late. On November 13, 2014, pursuant to the current amortization schedule setting forth required payments by LEI to Rogers, a principal payment in the amount of $428,327.17 was due from LEI to Rogers. LEI requested that this principal payment be deferred because it was in the process of obtaining new funding to refinance the Loan that is due to close prior to November 30, 2014. Rogers has agreed to reschedule the November 13, 2014, principal payment to December 13, 2014. In exchange, LEI’s interest rate increases to 15% on the entire principal balance remaining due beginning on November 14, 2014, until paid in full, and LEI must pay an additional administrative fee of $15,000.00 to Robertson Global Credit, LLC. The terms of the restructuring in the Amended Letter Loan Agreement dated to be effective as of March 14, 2014, are retroactive to March 14, 2014, and were fully effective as of that date. The terms of the restructuring in this Second Amended Letter Loan Agreement are retroactive to November 13, 2014, and are fully effective as of that date.

2. Payment of Loan.

a. LEI shall repay the Loan on the dates and in the amounts as set forth in the Note (as amended), which includes, among others, these terms:

i. The Note shall accrue interest at the rate of fifteen percent (15%) per annum based on a 360-day year which shall be assessed for the actual number of days elapsed beginning November 14, 2014, through the maturity date of August 13, 2015.

ii. The entire principal balance remaining and all accrued, unpaid interest on the Note is due and payable on or before Maturity Date.

b. LEI may, at its option, voluntarily prepay all or any portion of the outstanding principal of the Loan as, and to the extent, set forth in the Note, at any time after November 13, 2013. LEI may not prepay the Note prior to November 13, 2013. However, if LEI chooses to prepay, it is subject to a prepayment penalty of the amount of Administration Fees (as defined in Paragraph 4 below) that would have been paid by LEI under this Agreement through the Maturity Date.

c. If an Asset Coverage Deficiency occurs at any time during the term of the Note, LEI shall, within five days of receipt of notice from Rogers that an Asset Coverage Deficiency exists, make a mandatory prepayment on the Loan in the amount necessary to be in compliance with the Asset Coverage Ratio.

d. LEI shall, on the first Business Day following any Disposition of Assets of LEI permitted by Section 8.1(i) (other than Dispositions permitted by Sections 8(i)(1) , (2) , and (4) ), make a payment equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds received from the Disposition to be applied to the outstanding Loan, applied first to any outstanding Obligations, then to accrued interest, then to principal; provided , however , that if no Asset Coverage Deficiency exists as a result of the Disposition and no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, LEI may retain the funds and the payment shall not be required. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this clause (d) shall not constitute, or be deemed to constitute, consent by Rogers to any Disposition or to any release of any Liens on any Collateral Property.

3. Collateral Value Determinations.

a. From and after the date of this Agreement, the initial Total Proved PV10% is $30,000,000.00, until redetermined pursuant to the terms of Section 3(b) or Section 3(c) .

b. Upon notice to LEI and at LEI’s expense, the Total Proved PV10% shall be redetermined by Rogers for each Determination Period on each Scheduled Collateral Value Determination Date, and each the redetermination shall be effective as of the date set forth in the notice. It is expressly understood that Rogers shall have no obligation to determine the Total Proved PV10% at any particular amount.

c. In addition to the redeterminations of Total Proved PV10% required pursuant to Section 3(b) above, LEI shall have the right to request a special redetermination of the Total Proved PV10% at any time and from time to time, but not more than one time during any Determination Period. A special redetermination under this section shall be made by Rogers based upon the most recent Reserve Report delivered to Rogers by LEI and on any other reports and data that Rogers may reasonably request. If the special redetermination results in an Asset Coverage Deficiency, LEI shall comply with Section 2(c) .

4. Administration Fees. LEI agrees to pay to Rogers’ designee, Robertson Global Credit, LLC, for the period beginning on the date of this Agreement and continuing through the Maturity Date a quarterly Administration Fee in the amount of $15,000.00. This fee shall be payable by LEI in advance on the first day of each calendar quarter and a prorated fee shall be due on the Maturity Date. These administration fees are non-refundable. An additional administrative fee of $15,000.00 is due and payable by LEI to Robertson Global Credit, LLC, upon execution of this Amended Agreement.

5. Conditions Precedent. The obligation of Rogers to make the Loan was subject to the following conditions precedent:

a. Rogers shall have received, reviewed, and approved the following documents and other items, appropriately executed when necessary and, where applicable, acknowledged by one or more Authorized Officers of LEI, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Rogers:

i. multiple counterparts of this Agreement as requested by Rogers;

ii. the Note;

a. Organization, etc. LEI is a corporation validly organized and existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Nevada. LEI is qualified to do business and is in good standing as a foreign entity in each jurisdiction where the nature of its business requires this qualification. LEI has full power and authority and holds all requisite franchises, patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade names (or rights to any and all of these), licenses, permits, and other approvals (i) to enter into and perform its Obligations under this Agreement and each other Loan Document and (ii) except where failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, to own and hold under lease its property and to conduct its business (including its Oil and Gas Business) substantially as currently conducted by it. As of the date of this Agreement, LEI has only one Subsidiary, LEI Alcalde Properties LLC, a Texas limited liability company, which is wholly-owned.

b. Financial Information. All financial statements delivered by LEI to Rogers prior to the date of this Agreement are true and correct, fairly present the financial condition of LEI, and have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied, as of the date of this Agreement, no obligations, liabilities, or indebtedness (including contingent and indirect liabilities) exist that are material to LEI that are not reflected in the financial statements; and no material adverse changes have occurred in the financial condition or business of LEI since the date of the most recent financial statements that LEI has delivered to Rogers. However, certain debt totaling $3.25 million incurred after March 31, 2013, was not included in those financial statements as it was incurred after the date of the last Form 10-Q filed by LEI. LEI has provided Rogers with a list of this indebtedness prior to the date of this Agreement that includes the dates, amounts, names of lenders, and basic terms of each of these debt obligations that is true and correct.

c. Due Authorization, Non-Contravention, etc. The execution, delivery, and performance by LEI of this Agreement, and each other Loan Document executed or to be executed by it, are within LEI’s powers, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other action, and do not (1) violate LEI’s organizational documents; (2) violate any other contractual restriction, law, or governmental regulation or court decree or order binding on or affecting any LEI or its Assets where the violation could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; or (3) result in, or require the creation or imposition of, any Lien on any of LEI’s properties except for Liens granted under the Loan Documents.

d. Governmental Approval, Regulation, etc. No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any Governmental Authority or other Person is required for (1) the due execution, delivery, or performance by LEI of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or (2) the grant by LEI of the Liens granted under the Security Documents and the validity, perfection, priority, and enforceability of the Liens other than the recording or filing of Security Documents or related notice filings with appropriate Governmental Authorities. LEI is not an “investment company” within the meaning of and subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940.

e. Validity, etc. This Agreement and each other Loan Document executed by LEI will, on the due execution and delivery of each of these documents, constitute the legal, valid, and binding obligations of LEI, enforceable against LEI in accordance with their respective terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally as well as general principles of equity (regardless of whether the enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). Without limiting these items, each Security Document executed by LEI creates a valid Lien on the Collateral Property of LEI as provided in each Security Document, and upon filing or recording of each Security Document will constitute a valid perfected first-priority (subject to any Liens permitted under Section 8(e) ) Lien on the Collateral Property.

f. Litigation, etc. No litigation, investigation, or governmental proceeding is pending or, to the knowledge of any of LEI’s officers, threatened against or affecting LEI, that may result in any material adverse change in LEI’s business, properties, or operations or that purports to affect the legality, validity, or enforceability of this Agreement, the Note, or any other Loan Document, except as disclosed in LEI’s SEC filings and except in connection with LEI’s pending lawsuit with South Texas Pad Site Development, LLC, et al. (Cause No. 2013-09179 in the 127th Judicial District Court of Harris County, Texas).

g. No Material Adverse Change. LEI knows of no specific fact or facts that LEI has not disclosed to Rogers in writing that are likely to result in any material adverse change in LEI’s business, properties, or operations. No material adverse change has occurred with respect to the Mortgaged Property since the date of the Initial Reserve Report, other than conditions affecting the oil and gas industry in general.

h. Ownership of Properties.

i. LEI owns good and defensible title to all of its Oil and Gas Properties and good title to all its Assets constituting personal property, in each case, free and clear of all Liens except Liens permitted by Section 8(e) . After giving full effect to the permitted Liens, LEI owns the net interests in production attributable to the Hydrocarbon Interests as reflected in the Initial Reserve Report, and the ownership of these Hydrocarbon Interests shall not in any material respect obligate LEI to bear the costs and expenses relating to the maintenance, development, and operations of each of the Hydrocarbon Interests in an amount in excess of the working interest of each of the Oil and Gas Property set forth in the Initial Reserve Report that is not offset by a corresponding proportionate increase in LEI’s net revenue interest in the Hydrocarbon Interests.

ii. All material leases, permits, and agreements necessary for the conduct of the business of LEI (including those held by or on behalf of an operator of LEI’s properties) are valid and subsisting, in full force and effect, and no default exists, nor does any event or circumstance exist that, with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both, would give rise to a default under any LEI lease, permit, or agreement that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

iii. All of the Assets of LEI that are reasonably necessary for the operation of its business are in good working condition and are maintained in accordance with prudent business standards.

j. Taxes. All taxes required to be paid by LEI to date have in fact been paid, except for taxes being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings for which adequate reserves have been established.

No written certificate, written statement, financial statements, or other documents provided with this Agreement or previously delivered by LEI to Rogers in connection with this Agreement or in connection with any transaction contemplated by this Agreement, contains any untrue statement of a material fact or fails to state any material fact necessary to keep the statements contained in them or in this Agreement from being misleading.

Except as disclosed in SEC filings, LEI is not in default in any respect in the performance, observance, or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants, or conditions contained in any material agreement or instrument material to LEI’s business (including any material financing agreement or leasing agreement) to which it is a party, except as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. LEI is not a party to any material agreement or arrangement, or subject to any order, judgment, writ, or decree, that either restricts or purports to restrict its ability to grant Liens to Rogers on or in respect of its Assets to secure the Obligations and the Loan Documents.

m. Compliance with Laws, etc. Excluding consideration of Environmental Laws, which are separately addressed in the Mortgage, LEI has complied with all applicable statutes, rules, regulations, orders, and restrictions of any government or any instrumentality or agency of government having jurisdiction over the conduct of its business or the ownership of its Hydrocarbon Interests, except where the failure to comply could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

LUCAS ENERGY ANNOUNCES FISCAL 2015 THIRD QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS

HOUSTON, TEXAS – February 17, 2015 -- Lucas Energy, Inc. (NYSE MKT: LEI)(“Lucas” or the “Company”), an independent oil and gas company with operations in Texas, today announced anticipated development activities and its fiscal 2015 third quarter results for the three month period ending December 31, 2014.

“Our fiscal third quarter results were marred by weak crude oil prices and the expenses associated with the pursuit of strategic initiatives, including the financing that failed to close in early December,” said Mr. Anthony C. Schnur, Chief Executive Officer of Lucas Energy. “We did manage to offset, to some degree, the impact of lower commodity prices by successfully reducing our administrative and operating expenses.

“Market conditions required us to consider various alternatives, and from mid-December (2014) through January, we reviewed several proposals. On February 4, 2015, we were pleased to announce the signing of a Letter of Intent and Term Sheet for a potential business combination with Victory Energy Corporation (OTCBB: VYEY), a growing Permian Basin-focused oil and gas company based in Austin, Texas. We expect that the proposed combination will provide funding for our drilling program in the Eagle Ford shale and allow us to repay our existing debt obligations. We have worked diligently with Victory to develop an ambitious schedule for the proposed funding arrangements along with the definitive agreements relating to the proposed business combination and the related pre-merger funding and support arrangements,” Mr. Schnur continued. “Also, we are very pleased that the NYSE MKT accepted our revised plan to regain compliance with its listing standards which detailed the strategic actions that we have taken or that are in progress and granted us an extension to comply with applicable listing standards through March 31, 2015. Please refer to a separate release that we issued on February 9, 2015 for more information regarding this extension.”

Fiscal 2015 Third Quarter Results

For the fiscal 2015 third quarter, Lucas reported a net loss of $1.3 million, or ($0.04) per diluted share, compared to a $1.1 million loss, or a loss of ($0.04) per diluted share, in the same quarter last year and a sequential loss of $1.5 million, or a loss of ($0.04) per diluted share, in the fiscal second quarter of 2015. Our recent results were negatively impacted by certain non-recurring items primarily related to severance costs associated with recent staff reductions and other restructuring initiatives. Net operating revenues in the fiscal 2015 third quarter were $0.7 million, all of which were derived from crude oil sales, compared to revenues of $1.4 million in the fiscal 2014 third quarter and $1.0 million in the sequential fiscal 2015 second quarter.

Overall operating expenses in the fiscal 2015 third quarter declined by 28.6% to $1.6 million from the same period a year ago reflecting lower lease operating expense (LOE), lower depreciation, depletion and amortization expense and lower general and administrative expense (G&A). On a sequential basis, our operating expenses declined by 25.8%, primarily as a result of lower LOE and G&A expenses. LOE expense decreased by 39.4% from the same period last year reflecting a 68.7% decline in work over activity at certain wells, and G&A expense fell by 21.4%, reflecting lower share-based compensation and payroll.

Average production volumes were 105 net barrels of oil equivalent per day (BOEPD) compared to 113 BOEPD in the fiscal second quarter and 158 BOEPD in the same period last year. The production decline was largely a result of curtailed capital expenditures as we pursued strategic alternatives as directed by our Board of Directors.

For the first nine months of fiscal 2015, cash used in operating activities was approximately $1.2 million or 65% less than cash used during the same period last year. However, as of December 31, 2014, we had a working capital deficit of $9.2 million, primarily because approximately $7.1 million of the long-term portion of our Note Payable is now current as it matures within the next six months. Cash used in investing activities was 88% less, reflecting the sale of oil and gas properties in Madison County, and cash provided by financing activities was 84% lower than the same period last year when we received net proceeds of $6.6 million from the issuance and repayment of debt. At the end of our fiscal 2015 third quarter on December 31, 2014, our cash balance was $0.3 million compared to $0.5 million on March 31, 2014.
