Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements
Note 1 – Basis of Presentation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements of EnerJex Resources, Inc. (“we”, “us”, “our”, “EnerJex” and “Company”)
have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information
and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair
presentation. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for the interim
period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year. Certain amounts in the prior year
statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentations. The statements should be read in conjunction
with the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our Annual Report Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December
31, 2014.
Our consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, EnerJex Kansas, Inc., Black Sable Energy, LLC, Working Interest, LLC and
Black Raven Energy, Inc. for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2015 and for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Note 3 – Fair Value Measurements
We hold certain financial assets which are
required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis in accordance with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 157,
"Fair Value Measurements" ("ASC Topic 820-10"). ASC Topic 820-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy
that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted
quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable
inputs (Level 3 measurements). ASC Topic 820-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or
paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. A fair value measurement
assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability.
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC Topic 820-10 are described below:
Level 1. Valuations based on quoted
prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that an entity has the ability to access.
Level 2. Valuations based on quoted
prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or
other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. We
consider the derivative liability to be Level 2. We determine the fair value of the derivative liability utilizing
various inputs, including NYMEX price quotations and contract terms.
Level 3. Valuations based on inputs that
are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. We consider
our marketable securities to be Level 3
Our derivative instruments consist of fixed
price commodity swaps and deferred premium puts.

Note 4 - Asset Retirement Obligation
Our asset retirement obligations relate
to the liabilities associated with the abandonment of oil and natural gas wells. The amounts recognized are based on numerous estimates
and assumptions, including future retirement costs, inflation rates and credit adjusted risk-free interest rates. The following
shows the changes in asset retirement obligations:

Note 5 - Derivative Instruments
We have entered into certain derivative
or physical arrangements with respect to portions of our crude oil production to reduce our sensitivity to volatile commodity prices
and/or to meet hedging requirements under our Credit Facility. We believe that these derivative arrangements, although
not free of risk, allow us to achieve a more predictable cash flow and to reduce exposure to commodity price fluctuations. However,
derivative arrangements limit the benefit of increases in the prices of crude oil. Moreover, our derivative arrangements apply
only to a portion of our production.
We have an Intercreditor Agreement in place
between us, our counterparties, BP Corporation North America, Inc. ("BP") and Cargill Incorporated (“Cargill”)
and our agent Texas Capital Bank, N.A., which allows Texas Capital Bank to also act as agent for the counterparties for the purpose
of holding and enforcing any liens or security interests resulting from our derivative arrangements. Therefore, we are not
required to post additional collateral, including cash.

Note 6 - Long-Term Debt
Senior Secured Credit Facility
On October 3, 2011, the Company and DD Energy,
Inc., EnerJex Kansas, Inc., Black Sable Energy, LLC and Working Interest, LLC ("Borrowers") entered into an Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement with Texas Capital Bank, N.A. (the “Bank”) and other financial institutions and banks that
may become a party to the Credit Agreement from time to time. The facilities provided under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
were used to refinance Borrowers’ prior outstanding revolving loan facility with Bank, dated July 3, 2008, and for working
capital and general corporate purposes.
At our option, loans under the facility
will bear stated interest based on the Base Rate plus Base Rate Margin, or Floating Rate plus Floating Rate Margin (as those terms
are defined in the Credit Agreement). The Base Rate will be, for any day, a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the higher of (a)
the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50% and (b) the Bank's prime rate. The Floating Rate shall mean, at Borrower's option, a per annum
interest rate equal to (i) the Eurodollar Rate plus Eurodollar Margin, or (ii) the Base Rate plus Base Rate Margin (as those terms
are defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement). Eurodollar borrowings may be for one, two, three, or six months, as
selected by the Borrowers. The margins for all loans are based on a pricing grid ranging from 0.00% to 0.75% for the Base Rate
Margin and 2.25% to 3.00% for the Floating Rate Margin based on the Company's Borrowing Base Utilization Percentage (as defined
in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement).
On December 15, 2011, we entered into a
First Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and Second Amended and Restated Promissory Note in the amount of $50,000,000
with the Bank. The Amendment reflected the addition of Rantoul Partners as an additional Borrower and added as additional security
for the loans the assets held by Rantoul Partners.
On August 31, 2012, we entered into a Second
Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with the Bank. The Second Amendment: (i) increased our borrowing base to $7,000,000,

issued to employees and directors.
On March 13, 2015 the Company issued in
a registered offering 763,547 registered shares of its common stock together with 1,242.17099 shares of its newly designated Series
B Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Stock") convertible into 709,812 shares of common stock. We also issued
in an unregistered offering, 521.62076 shares of Preferred Stock convertible into 298,069 shares of common stock, and warrants
to purchase 1,771,428 shares of its common stock. The shareholder’s ability to convert a portion of the Preferred Stock and
to exercise the warrant are restricted: (i) prior to the Company obtaining approval of the offering by its shareholders, which
we expect to obtain before May 31, 2015, and (ii) pursuant to customary “blocker” provisions restricting the investor’s
ownership to 9.99% of our outstanding common stock.
The Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference
of $1,000 per share, and will be convertible at the option of the shareholder at a conversion ratio equal to approximately 571
shares of common stock for each one (1) share of Preferred Stock, subject to customary adjustments and anti-dilution price protection.
Dividends are payable on the shares of Preferred Stock only if and to the extent that dividends are payable on the common stock
into which the Preferred Stock is convertible. The Preferred Stock has no maturity date and can be redeemed by the Company beginning
twelve months after the closing of the offering or upon a change of control. Each warrant will be exercisable for one share of
common stock, for a period of five years beginning six months after March 13, 2015, at a cash exercise price of $2.75 per share,

On June 10, 2015 the Company issued 17,500
shares of common stock and 3,000 shares of its 10% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock to a consultant in

Note 9 Impairment of Oil and Gas Properties
Pursuant to full cost accounting rules,
the Company must perform a ceiling test each quarter on its proved oil and natural gas assets within each separate cost center.
All of the Company’s costs are included in one cost center because all of the Company’s operations are located in
the United States. The Company’s ceiling test was calculated using trailing twelve-month, unweighted-average first-day-of-the-month
prices for oil and natural gas as of June 30, 2015, which were based on a West Texas Intermediate oil price of $61.95 per Bbl
and a Henry Hub natural gas price of $2.48 per MMBtu (adjusted for basis and quality differentials), respectively. The twelve-month,
unweighted-average first-day-of-the –month price as of March 31, 2015 was $78.82 per Bbl and $3.74 per MMBtu. Utilizing
these prices, the calculated ceiling amount was less than the net capitalized cost of oil and natural gas properties as of June
30, 2015, and as a result, a pre-tax write-down of $11.4 million was recorded. At March 31, 2015 the calculated ceiling amount
was less than net capitalized cost of oil and natural gas properties resulted in a pre-tax write-down of $16.4 million. Additional
material write-downs of the Company’s oil and gas properties could occur in subsequent quarters in the event that oil and
natural gas prices remain at current depressed levels, or if the Company experiences significant downward adjustments to its estimated
proved reserves.
Note 10 Subsequent Events
We have reviewed
all material events through the date of this report in accordance with ASC 855-10.
On July 21, 2015 the Company received

Company projects. The liquidating distribution was funded from the proceeds of Oakridge’s sale of its La Plate
County, Colorado property. The distribution is reflected in the June 30, 2015 Consolidated Balance sheet as part of
accounts receivable.
On August 12, 2015 we entered into a Tenth
Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The Tenth Amendment reflects the following changes: (i) allow the Company
to sell certain oil assets in Kansas, (ii) allow for approximately $1,300,000 of the proceeds from the sale to be reinvested in
Company owned oil and gas projects and (iii) apply not less than $1,500,000 from the proceed of the sale to outstanding loan balances.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND
ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
The following discussion of our financial
condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes to our financial
statements included elsewhere in this report. In addition to historical financial information, the following discussion and analysis
contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results and timing of selected

Overview
Our principal strategy is to acquire, develop,
explore and produce domestic onshore oil properties. Our business activities are currently focused in Kansas, Colorado, Nebraska
and Texas.
We continue to investigate multiple opportunities
to both unlock value and accelerate growth in an accretive manner on behalf of shareholders, including but not limited to mergers,
acquisitions, joint ventures, and non-dilutive financings. There can be no assurance of the results or timing associated with this
process.
We are focusing our capital budget on the
development of our Colorado and Kansas properties where we have identified hundreds of drilling locations and reactivation or recompletion
opportunities that we believe will generate high rates of return with low risk profiles.

Direct Operating Costs
Direct operating costs include direct labor
and equipment costs related to pumping, gauging, pulling, well repairs, compression, transportation costs, and general maintenance
requirements in our oil and gas fields. These costs also include certain contract labor costs, and other non-capitalized expenses.
Direct operating costs for the six months ended June 30, 2015 decreased $594,658 or 19.5% to $2,448,382 from $3,043,040 for the
six months ended June 30, 2014. Direct operating costs per boe remained consistent in 2015 compared to 2014 at $29.81
per boe and $29.80 per boe respectively.
Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization
Depreciation, depletion and amortization
for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $1,088,233 compared to $1,596,139 for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The decrease
in depletion expense of $507,906 is due primarily to lower per boe depletion rates in 2015 compared to 2014. The lower depletion
rates resulted from the write-down of oil and gas properties mandated by the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Full Cost
Ceiling Test rules (see footnote 9 to the financial statements for a full explanation of the Ceiling Test). Depletion expense per
boe decreased $4.37 or 27.4% in the first half of 2015 compared to the first half of 2014.
Impairment of
Oil and Gas Properties
Under the
full cost method of accounting, capitalized oil and gas property costs less accumulated depletion and net
of deferred income taxes may not exceed an amount equal to the sum of the present value, discounted at 10%, of estimated
future net revenues from proved oil and gas reserves and the cost of unproved properties not subject to amortization (without
regard to estimates of fair value), or estimated fair value, if lower, of unproved properties that are not subject to
amortization. Should capitalized costs exceed this ceiling, an impairment expense is recognized.
For the 6 months ended June 30,
2015, we recognized an impairment expense on our evaluated oil and gas properties of approximately $27.8 million. No
impairment was recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2014.
Professional Fees
Professional fees for the six months ended
June 30, 2015 were $350,823 compared to $452,115 for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The decrease in professional fees of approximately
$101,000 was due primarily to reduced spending in 2015 on consultation fees associated with investor
relations consulting groups.
Salaries
Salaries for the six months ended June 30,
2015 were $1,013,760 compared to $679,436 for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The increase in salaries is due primarily
to the addition of employees.
Administrative Expenses
Administrative expenses for the six months
ended June 30, 2015 were $430,033 compared to $392,229 for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Administrative expenses were practically
flat in 2015 when compared to 2014. The slight increase of approximately $37,000 was due primarily increased regulatory fees which
were partially offset by decreased insurance, rents and telecom spending.
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the six months
ended June 30, 2015 was $630,704 compared to $737,667 for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Interest expense decreased as a
result of decreased outstanding borrowings from Texas Capital Bank in 2015 compared to 2014. Proceeds of approximately $14 million
from the issuance of Series A Preferred Stock were used to reduce outstanding borrowings on our line of credit with Texas
Capital Bank on June 20 2014. Prior to the reduction in principle the 2014 average balance outstanding was approximately
$31.5 million which resulted in higher interest charges in 2014 compared to 2015 when the average outstanding principle was
approximately $22 million.
Gain (Loss) on Derivatives
We incurred a loss of $2,175,649 in the
marking to market of our derivative contracts in the first six months of 2015 compared to a loss of $1,811,092 for the six months
ended June 30, 2014. The loss was due primarily to the completion of contracts during the six month period ending June 30, 2015.
Other Income
Other income increased
$2,207,167 in 2015 from $4,176 in 2014 to $2,211,343 in 2015. The increase was due primarily to the realization of gains associated
with our derivative contracts.
Net Income (Loss)
The net loss for the six months ended June
30, 2015 was $30,665,907 compared to net loss of $903,171 for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The increase in net
losses was due primarily to the impairment of oil and gas properties of $27,822,989 as well as diminished revenues related to the
decrease in realized commodity prices. The decrease was partially offset by realized derivative gains and reduced expenses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity is a measure of a company's ability
to meet potential cash requirements. We have historically met our capital requirements through debt financing, revenues from operations,
asset sales, and the issuance of equity securities. Due to the decline in oil prices, the resulting decline in our reserves as
reflected in our reserve report which caused a corresponding reduction in our borrowing base, and the recent issuances of equity
securities from our "shelf" registration, it will be more difficult in 2015 to use our historical means of meeting our
capital requirements to provide us with adequate liquidity to fund our operations and capital program.

assets, total current liabilities and working capital.

Senior Secured Credit Facility
On October 3, 2011, the Company and DD Energy,
Inc., EnerJex Kansas, Inc., Black Sable Energy, LLC and Working Interest, LLC ("Borrowers") entered into an Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement with Texas Capital Bank, N.A. (the “Bank”) and other financial institutions and banks that
may become a party to the Credit Agreement from time to time. The facilities provided under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
were used to refinance Borrowers prior outstanding revolving loan facility with Bank, dated July 3, 2008, and for working capital
and general corporate purposes.
At our option, loans under the facility
will bear stated interest based on the Base Rate plus Base Rate Margin, or Floating Rate plus Floating Rate Margin (as those terms
are defined in the Credit Agreement). The Base Rate will be, for any day, a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the higher of (a)
the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50% and (b) the Bank's prime rate. The Floating Rate shall mean, at Borrower's option, a per annum
interest rate equal to (i) the Eurodollar Rate plus Eurodollar Margin, or (ii) the Base Rate plus Base Rate Margin (as those terms
are defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement). Eurodollar borrowings may be for one, two, three, or six months, as
selected by the Borrowers. The margins for all loans are based on a pricing grid ranging from 0.00% to 0.75% for the Base Rate
Margin and 2.25% to 3.00% for the Floating Rate Margin based on the Company's Borrowing Base Utilization Percentage (as defined
in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement).
On December 15, 2011, we entered into
a First Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and Second Amended and Restated Promissory Note in the amount of $50,000,000
with the Bank, which closed on December 15, 2011. The Amendment reflected the addition of Rantoul Partners as an additional Borrower
and added as additional security for the loans the assets held by Rantoul Partners.
On August 31, 2012, we entered into a Second
Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with the Bank. The Second Amendment: (i) increased our borrowing base to $7,000,000,
(ii) reduced the minimum interest rate to 3.75%, and (iii) added additional new leases as collateral for the loan.
On November 2, 2012, we entered into
a Third Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with the Bank. The Third Amendment (i) increased our borrowing base
to $12,150,000, and (ii) clarified certain continuing covenants and provided a limited waiver of compliance with one of the covenants
so clarified for the quarter ended December 31, 2011.
On January 24, 2013, we entered into a Fourth
Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, which was made effective as of December 31, 2012 with the Bank. The Fourth
Amendment reflects the following changes: (i) the Bank consented to the restructuring transactions related to the dissolution of
Rantoul Partners, and (ii) the Bank terminated a Limited Guaranty, as defined in the Credit Agreement, executed by Rantoul Partners
in favor of the Bank.
On April 16, 2013, the Bank increased our
borrowing base to $19.5 million.
On September 30, 2013, we entered into a
Fifth Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The Fifth Amendment reflects the following changes: (i)
an expanded principal commitment amount of the Bank to $100,000,000, (ii) an increase in our Borrowing Base to $38,000,000, (iii)
the addition of Black Raven Energy, Inc. to the Credit Agreement as a borrower party, (iv) the addition of certain collateral and
security interests in favor of the Bank, and (v) the reduction of our current interest rate to 3.30%.
On November 19, 2013, we entered into a
Sixth Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The Sixth Amendment reflects the following changes: (i) the addition
of Iberia Bank as a participant into our credit facility, and (ii) made a technical correction to our covenant calculations.
On May 22, 2014, we entered into a Seventh
Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The Seventh Amendment reflects the Bank’s consent to our issuance
of up to 850,000 shares of our 10% Series A Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock.
On August 15, 2014, we entered into an Eighth
Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The Eighth Amendment reflects the following changes: (i) the borrowing
base was increased from $38 million to $40 million, and (ii) the maturity of the facility was extended by three years to October
3, 2018.
On April 29, 2015, we entered into a Ninth
Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. In the Ninth Amendment, the Banks (i) redetermined the Borrowing Base based
upon the recent Reserve Report dated January 1, 2015, (ii) imposed affirmative obligations on the Company to use a portion of proceeds
received with regard to future sales of securities or certain assets to repay the loan, (iii) consented to non-compliance by the
Company with certain terms of the Credit Agreement, (iv) waived certain provisions of the Credit Agreement, and (v) agreed to certain
other amendments to the Credit Agreement.
On May 1, 2015, the Borrowers and the Banks
entered into a Letter Agreement to clarify that up to $1,000,000 in proceeds from any potential future securities offering will
be unencumbered by the Banks’ Liens as described in the Credit Agreement through November 1, 2015, and that, until November
1, 2015, such proceeds shall not be subject to certain provisions in the Credit Agreement prohibiting the Company from declaring
and paying dividends that may be due and payable to holders of securities issued in such potential offerings or issued prior to
the Letter Agreement.
Our current borrowing base is $21.5
million, of which we had borrowed $21.5 million as of June 30, 2015. At June 30, 2015, the interest rate on amounts borrowed
under our credit facility was approximately 4.3% and for the year ended December 31, 2014, the interest rate on amounts borrowed
under our credit facility was approximately 3.3%. This facility expires on October 3, 2018.
Satisfaction of our cash obligations
for the next 12 months
We intend to meet our near term
cash obligations through the monetization of derivative contracts, assets sales and cash flow generated from operations. Due
to the declines in oil prices, the resulting decline in our reserves caused a corresponding reduction to our borrowing base,
and recent issuances of equity securities from our “shelf” registration, it will be more difficult in 2015 to use
our historical means to meet our cash obligations in the next twelve months.
Summary of product research and development
We do not anticipate performing any significant
product research and development under our plan of operation.
Expected purchase or sale of any
significant equipment
We anticipate that we will purchase the
necessary production and field service equipment required to produce oil during our normal course of operations over the next twelve
months.
Significant
changes in the number of employees
There have been no significant changes in
number of employees since December 31, 2013. We currently have 24 full-time employees, including field personnel. As production
and drilling activities increase or decrease, we may have to continue to adjust our technical, operational and administrative personnel
as appropriate. We are using and will continue to use independent consultants and contractors to perform various professional services,
particularly in the area of land services, reservoir engineering, geology drilling, water hauling, pipeline construction, well
design, well-site monitoring and surveillance, permitting and environmental assessment. We believe that this use of third-party
service providers may enhance our ability to contain operating and general expenses, and capital costs.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet
arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial
condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to
investors.
Critical Accounting Policies and
Estimates
Our critical accounting estimates include
the value of our oil and gas properties, asset retirement obligations, and share-based payments.
Oil and Gas Properties
We follow the full-cost method of accounting
under which all costs associated with property acquisition, exploration and development activities are capitalized. We also capitalize
internal costs that can be directly identified with our acquisition, exploration and development activities and do not include
costs related to production, general corporate overhead or similar activities.
Proved properties are amortized using the
units of production (UOP) method. Currently we only have operations in the Unites States of America. The UOP calculation multiplies
the percentage of estimated proved reserves produced each quarter by the cost of these reserves. The amortization base in the UOP
calculation includes the sum of proved property, net of accumulated depreciation, depletion and amortization (DD&A), estimated
future development costs (future costs to access and develop proved reserves) and asset retirement costs, less related salvage
value.
The cost of unproved properties are excluded
from the amortization calculation until it is determined whether or not proved reserves can be assigned to such properties or until
development projects are placed into service. Geological and geophysical costs not associated with specific properties are recorded
as proved property immediately. Unproved properties are reviewed for impairment quarterly.
Under the full cost method of accounting,
the net book value of oil and gas properties, less deferred income taxes, may not exceed a calculated “ceiling.” The
ceiling limitation is (a) the present value of future net revenues computed by applying current prices of oil & gas reserves
(with consideration of price changes only to the extent provided by contractual arrangements) to estimated future production of
proved oil & gas reserves as of the date of the latest balance sheet presented, less estimated future expenditures (based on
current costs) to be incurred in developing and producing the proved reserves computed using a discount factor of 10 percent and
assuming continuation of existing economic conditions plus (b) the cost of properties not being amortized plus (c) the lower of
cost or estimated fair value of unproven properties included in the costs being amortized less (d) income tax effects related to
differences between book and tax basis of properties. Future cash outflows associated with settling accrued retirement obligations
are excluded from the calculation. Estimated future cash flows are calculated using end-of-period costs and an unweighted arithmetic
average of commodity prices in effect on the first day of each of the previous 12 months held flat for the life of the production,
except where prices are defined by contractual arrangements.
Any excess of the net book value of
proved oil and gas properties, less related deferred income taxes, over the ceiling is charged to expense and reflected as
additional DD&A in the statement of operations. The ceiling calculation is performed quarterly. For the quarter ended
March 31, 2015, we incurred a $16,401,376 impairment. For the quarter ended June 30, 2015, the Company recorded an impairment
charge of $11,421,613. For the year ended December 31, 2014, there were no impairments resulting from the quarterly
ceiling tests.
Proceeds from the sale or disposition of
oil and gas properties are accounted for as a reduction to capitalized costs unless a significant portion (greater than 25%) of
our reserve quantities are sold, in which case a gain or loss is recognized in income.
Asset Retirement Obligations
The asset retirement obligation relates
to the plugging and abandonment costs when our wells are no longer useful. We determine the value of the liability by obtaining
quotes for this service and estimate the increase we will face in the future. We then discount the future value based on an intrinsic
interest rate that is appropriate for us. If costs rise more than what we have expected there could be additional charges in the
future however we monitor the costs of the abandoned wells and we will adjust this liability if necessary.
Share-Based Payments
The value we assign to the options and warrants
that we issue is based on the fair market value as calculated by the Black-Scholes pricing model. To perform a calculation of the
value of our options and warrants, we determine an estimate of the volatility of our stock. We need to estimate volatility
because there has not been enough trading of our stock to determine an appropriate measure of volatility. We believe our estimate
of volatility is reasonable, and we review the assumptions used to determine this whenever we issue new equity instruments. If
we have a material error in our estimate of the volatility of our stock, our expenses could be understated or overstated.
Effects of Inflation and Pricing
The oil industry is very cyclical and the
demand for goods and services of oil field companies, suppliers and others associated with the industry puts extreme pressure on
the economic stability and pricing structure within the industry. Material changes in prices impact revenue stream, estimates of
future reserves, borrowing base calculations of bank loans and value of properties in purchase and sale transactions. Material
changes in prices can impact the value of oil companies and their ability to raise capital, borrow money and retain personnel.
We anticipate business costs and the demand for services related to production and exploration will fluctuate while the commodity
prices for oil remains volatile.
