NOTE A – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
 
Recently Enacted Accounting Standards
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations.”  It will require an acquirer to recognize, at the acquisition date, the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree at their full fair values as of that date. In a business combination achieved in stages (step acquisitions), the acquirer will be required to remeasure its previously held equity interest in the acquiree at its acquisition-date fair value and recognize the resulting gain or loss in earnings. The acquisition-related transaction and restructuring costs will no longer be included as part of the capitalized cost of the acquired entity but will be required to be accounted for separately in accordance with applicable generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. SFAS No. 141(R) applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008.
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements.” The statement clarifies the definition of a non-controlling (or minority) interest and requires that non-controlling interests in subsidiaries be reported as a component of equity in the consolidated statement of financial position and requires that earnings attributed to the non-controlling interests be reported as part of consolidated earnings and not as a separate component of income or expense. However, it will also require expanded disclosures of the attribution of consolidated earnings to the controlling and non-controlling interests on the face of the consolidated income statement. SFAS No. 160 will require that changes in a parent’s controlling ownership interest, that do not result in a loss of control of the subsidiary, are accounted for as equity transactions among shareholders in the consolidated entity therefore resulting in no gain or loss recognition in the income statement. Only when a subsidiary is deconsolidated will a parent recognize a gain or loss in net income. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008, and will be applied prospectively except for the presentation and disclosure requirements that will be applied retrospectively for all periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 160 to its financial position and results of operations.

NOTE A – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
 
Recently Enacted Accounting Standards (continued)
 
In March 2008, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS No. 161”). SFAS No. 161 is intended to improve financial reporting about derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. The provisions of SFAS No. 161 are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. The Company does not expect the provisions of SFAS No. 161 to have a material impact on the financial statements.

Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Concentration of Credit Risk
 
Financial  instruments  which  potentially  subject  the  Company  to a concentration  of credit risk consists  primarily of trade  accounts  receivable with a  variety  of local,  national,  and  international  oil and  natural  gas companies.  Such credit risks are  considered by management to be limited due to the financial resources of the oil and natural gas companies.

NOTE A – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
 
Risk Factors
 
The Company operates in an environment with many financial  risks including, but not limited to, the ability to acquire additional economically recoverable gas reserves, the continued ability to market drilling programs, the inherent risks of the search for, development of and production of  gas, the ability to sell natural gas at prices which will provide attractive rates of return, the volatility and seasonality of  gas production and prices, and the highly competitive nature of the industry as well as worldwide economic conditions.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The Company  defines the fair value of a  financial  instrument  as the amount at which  the  instrument  could be  exchanged  in a current  transaction between  willing  parties.  Financial  instruments  included  in  the  Company's financial statements include cash and cash equivalents,  short-term investments, accounts receivable,  other receivables,  other assets,  accounts payable, notes payable and due to affiliates.  Unless  otherwise  disclosed in the notes to the financial statements,  the carrying value of financial instruments is considered to approximate fair value due to the short maturity and characteristics of those instruments.  The  carrying  value  of debt  approximates  fair  value  as terms approximate those currently available for similar debt instruments.
 
Gas Properties
 
The Company adopted the successful efforts method of accounting for gas producing activities. Under successful efforts, costs to acquire mineral interest in gas properties, to drill and equip exploratory wells that find proved reserves, and to drill and equip developmental wells are capitalized. Costs to drill exploratory wells that do not find proved reserves, costs of developmental wells on properties the Company has no further interest in, geological and geophysical costs, and costs of carrying and retaining unproved properties are expensed. Unproved gas properties that are significant are periodically assessed for impairment of value and a loss is recognized at the time of impairment by providing an impairment allowance. Other unproved properties are expensed when surrendered or expired.

NOTE A – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
 
Gas Properties (continued)

When a property is determined to contain proved reserves, the capitalized costs of such properties are transferred from unproved properties to proved properties and are amortized by the unit-of-production method based upon estimated proved developed reserves. To the extent that capitalized  costs of groups of proved properties having similar characteristics exceed the estimated future net cash flows, the excess capitalized costs are written down to the present value of such amounts. Estimated future net cash flows are determined based primarily upon the estimated future proved reserves related to the Company's current proved properties and, to a lesser extent, certain future net cash flows related to operating and related fees due the Company related to its management of various partnerships. The Company follows Statement of Financial Accounting  Standards ("SFAS") No. 121 which requires a  review for impairment whenever circumstances indicate that the carrying  amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Impairment is recorded as impaired properties are identified.
 
On sale or abandonment of an entire interest in an unproved property, gain or loss is recognized, taking into consideration the amount of any  recorded impairment. If a partial interest in an unproved property is

NOTE C—GOING CONCERN

The Company is a development stage Company and has not commenced planned principal operations. The Company had no revenues and has incurred losses of $1,908,285 for the period March 28, 2008 (inception) to June 30, 2009 and negative working capital aggregating $ 164,387. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
 
There can be no assurance that sufficient funds required during the next year or thereafter will be generated from operations or that funds will be available from external sources such as debt or equity financings or other potential sources. The lack of additional capital resulting from the inability to generate cash flow from operations or to raise capital from external sources would force the Company to substantially curtail or cease operations and would, therefore, have a material adverse effect on its business. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that any such required funds, if available, will be available on attractive terms or that they will not have a significant dilutive effect on the Company’s existing stockholders.
 
The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability of classification of asset-carrying amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
NOTE D-LOSS PER SHARE
 
The computation of loss per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period presented. Diluted loss per common share is the same as basic loss per common share as there are no potentially dilutive securities outstanding (options and warrants).
 
  NOTE E - INCOME TAXES

           The Company  accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method described in SFAS No. 109, “Accounting For Income Taxes”, the objective of which is to establish deferred tax assets and liabilities for the temporary differences between the financial reporting and the tax basis of the Company’s assets and liabilities at the enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such amounts are realized or settled. A valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets is recorded when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company recorded a deferred income tax asset for the effect of net operating loss carryforwards. In recognition of the uncertainty regarding the ultimate amount of income tax benefits to be derived, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance at December 31, 2008 and June 30, 2009.

You should read the following description of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with the financial statements and accompanying notes included in this report.
 
Overview
 
We began operations on March 28, 2008 and are engaged in the natural gas and oil industry focusing on exploration, development, and production. We operate oil and gas wells in which we own the majority of the working interest, and are presently drilling oil wells on our current leaseholds in Kentucky. We maintain leaseholds covering approximately 3,600 acres in addition to rights of way and are presently expanding our leasehold interests in Kentucky and into West Virginia. Our first revenue from production was generated in July 2009. We have incurred a net loss of $ 1,147,601 for the 6 month period ending June 30, 2009.
 
We expect to generate long-term reserve and production growth through drilling activities and further acquisitions. We believe that our management’s experience and expertise will enable it to identify, evaluate, and develop our oil and natural gas projects. We have secured a 100% net revenue interest in a leasehold in Eastern Kentucky covering 1500 acres targeting gas extraction from the Devonian Shale. Approximately 20-30 drilling locations are on this lease and the wells will be from 1,500-2,800 feet vertically. The leasehold is directly adjacent to producing wells. In addition, we have leased several tracts totaling approximately 2000 acres in southern central Kentucky where we hold on average a 90% net revenue interest. We anticipate that we can drill in excess of 40 oil wells on these leaseholds varying from 400-2000 feet vertically. We have secured a 100% net revenue interest in a leasehold in Wayne County, West Virginia covering 100 acres targeting gas extraction from the Devonian Shale.
 
     Our current operation is focused in the South Central Kentucky region encompassing the counties of Allen, Monroe, Metcalfe, Green, Hart, and Barren. Our Eastern Kentucky project is concentrated in the counties of Morgan and Magoffin. We currently have the majority Working Interest in nine oil wells of which four are currently in production. Of these four, the average daily production is 4 barrels of oil per day (BOD) with a range of 2-6 BOD. We are currently reworking two of the oil wells not in production and anticipate that we will have them in production before the end of August. The remaining three  non-producing oil wells will be reworked and placed back into production over the course of the next few months.

We also maintain the majority working Interest in 4 producing natural gas wells. Our two wells located in Eastern Kentucky are currently shut-in due to issues with the receiving transmission pipeline. We anticipate that as we expand our operations in this region, we can satisfactorily resolve this issue and place both wells back into production. We are currently identifying delivery options for the two producing natural gas wells for which we maintain a 100% Working Interest in Hart County, Kentucky. When we initiate the rework of two previously producing oil wells on the same leasehold, our plan is to construct a pipeline for delivery of natural gas produced from these wells.

We continue to seek to identify oil wells for possible acquisition. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to enter into agreements for the acquisition of these oil wells upon terms that are satisfactory to the Company.
   
We expect to generate long-term reserve and production growth through drilling activities and further acquisitions. We believe that our management’s experience and expertise will enable us to identify, evaluate, and develop oil and natural gas projects.
 
While we anticipate the majority of future capital expenditures will be expended on the acquisition of previously drilled wells, reworking of wells, and drilling of wells, we intend to use our experience and regional expertise to add leasehold interests to the inventory of leases for future drilling activities, as well as property acquisitions.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2008  AND 2009
 
This discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements included elsewhere in this report.
 
Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2008 were $0 and $0 respectively. The Company had revenues of $0 and $0 for period from March 28, 2008 (inception) to June 30, 2008. For the six months ended June 30, 2009, the Company had revenues of $0.  We are still a development stage company and do not expect to generate revenue until we begin active drilling and mining. Revenues for the six months period ended June 30, 2009 was $0.
  
Operating Expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2008 was $43,667. Operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2009 was $962,625, which included selling, general, and administrative expenses of $167,600.The increase in operating expenses  was mainly from the issuance of common stock for consulting and other fees.

 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
As of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 we had cash and cash equivalents of $17,733 and $27,389, respectively. 
 
For the period from March 28, 2008 (inception) to June 30, 2008, cash used by operating activities was $3,897. A total of $18,215 was expensed from the issuance of common stock for services and leases for the period March 28, 2008 to June 30, 2008. For the six months ended June 30, 2009, cash provided by operating activities was $52,644. A total of $1,018,125 was expensed from the issuance of common stock for services, leases and reimbursements.
  
For the period from March 28, 2008 (inception) to June 30, 2008, the cash used by investing activities was $6,000, which was primarily for the purchase of gas properties. For the six months ended June 30, 2009, there was $62,300, which was primarily for the purchase of oil and gas properties.
 
For the period from March 28, 2008 (inception) to June 30, 2008, cash provided by financing activities was $10,000 from the issuance of common stock. For the six months ended June 30, 2009, there was no cash provided for financing activities.
 
PLAN OF OPERATION AND FINANCING NEEDS
 
We intend to acquire producing oil and gas properties where we believe significant additional value can be created. Management is primarily interested in developmental properties where some combination of these factors exist: (1) opportunities for long production life with stable production levels; (2) geological formations with multiple producing horizons; (3) substantial exploitation potential; and (4) relatively low capital investment production costs.
 
We intend to acquire adjacent mineral rights leaseholds to further expand our block of acreage for development. We also intend to expand into Wayne County, West Virginia, to explore for leaseholds. The current rate to acquire leaseholds in Eastern Kentucky ranges from $10.00 -$50.00 per acre.
 
We intend to maximize the value of properties through a combination of successful drilling, increasing recoverable reserves and reducing operating costs. We employ the latest technology such as directional and horizontal drilling. These methods have historically produced oil and gas at faster rates and with lower operating costs basis than traditional vertical drilling.
 
We intend to maintain a highly competitive team of experienced and technically proficient employees and motivate them through a positive work environment and stock ownership. We believe that employee ownership, which may be encouraged through a stock option plan, is essential for attracting, retaining and motivating qualified personnel. While we have not yet adopted a stock option plan, we intend to do so in the near future.
 
In order to fund our current drilling program, as well as future drilling programs, we rely upon partnerships and joint ventures with accredited investors. Once we become profitable, we intend to drill wells in which we will maintain 100% of the net revenue.
 
Including the net proceeds from the 2008 stock offering, we only have sufficient funds to conduct our operations for three to six months. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all.
 
If we are not successful in generating sufficient liquidity from our operations or in raising sufficient capital resources, on terms acceptable to us, this could have a material adverse effect on our  business, results of operations liquidity and financial condition.

We presently do not have any available credit, bank financing or other external sources of liquidity, other than the net proceeds from the offering. Due to our brief history and historical operating losses, our operations have not been a source of liquidity. We will need to obtain additional capital in order to expand operations and become profitable. In order to obtain capital, we may need to sell additional shares of our common stock or borrow funds from private lenders. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining additional funding.
 
 
We will need additional investments in order to continue operations, but we cannot offer any assurance that we will be able to obtain such investments. Financing transactions may include the issuance of equity or debt securities, obtaining credit facilities, or other financing mechanisms. The recent downturn in the U.S. stock and debt markets could make it more difficult to obtain financing through the issuance of equity or debt securities. Even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that it could incur unexpected costs and expenses, fail to collect significant amounts owed to it, or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force it to seek alternative financing. Further, if we issue additional equity or debt securities, stockholders may experience additional dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our common stock. If additional financing is not available or is not available on acceptable terms, we will have to curtail our operations.
 
Recent Financings
 
Between June 2008 and March 24, 2009, the Company raised $ 46,793 in private financing from accredited investors. These funds were utilized for the daily operating activities of the company. The investors purchased shares from the Company at $.35 per share. Since inception, the President and Vice-President have funded the Company’s operations.
 
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements:
 
None.

Critical Accounting Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Effect of Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
 
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.
 
Application of Critical Accounting Policies
 
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to impairment of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, deferred tax assets and fair value computation using the Black Scholes option pricing model. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions, such as the trading value of our common stock and estimated future undiscounted cash flows, that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions; however, we believe that our estimates, including those for the above-described items, are reasonable.

Use of Estimates
 
In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, management utilizes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These estimates and assumptions relate to recording net revenue, collectibility of accounts receivable, useful lives and impairment of tangible and intangible assets, accruals, income taxes, inventory realization, stock-based compensation expense and other factors. Management believes it has exercised reasonable judgment in deriving these estimates. Consequently, a change in conditions could affect these estimates.
 
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
 
None
 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.

ITEM 4T. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
As of the end of the period covered by this report, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our President and chief financial officer of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based upon this evaluation, our President and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is: (1) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our President and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure; and (2) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms. There was no change to our internal controls or in other factors that could affect these controls during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
