              Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
                                January 31, 2006

Note 1.  Management's Representation of Interim Financial Information

The  accompanying  consolidated  financial  statements  have  been  prepared  by
management of VTEX Energy, Inc. (formerly Vector Energy  Corporation),  a Nevada
corporation  and  its  subsidiaries,   Vector   Exploration,   Inc.  and  Viking
International  Petroleum,  PLC ("Viking"),  collectively  the "Company"  without
audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain  information and
footnote  disclosures  normally included in the financial statements prepared in
accordance  with  U.S.  generally  accepted  accounting   principles  have  been
condensed or omitted as allowed by such rules and  regulations,  and  management
believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not
misleading.  These financial  statements include all of the adjustments that, in
the  opinion of  management,  are  necessary  for the fair  presentation  of the
financial  position and results of  operations of the Company.  These  financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial
statements  for the year  ended  April  30,  2005,  which  are  included  in the
Company's annual report on Form 10-KSB filed with the SEC on August 15, 2005.

Business and Organization

The  Company was  incorporated  under the laws of the State of Texas on June 18,
1998 as Vector Energy Corporation.  Effective November 15, 2002, the Company was
reincorporated  in Nevada.  The  reincorporation  was  effected by the merger of
Vector Energy  Corporation with and into a newly created wholly owned subsidiary
VTEX Energy, Inc., a Nevada corporation,  which became the surviving entity. The
Company is primarily  engaged in the  acquisition,  development,  production and
exploration of oil and natural gas properties in the United States.  The Company
also has,  through its wholly  owned  subsidiary  Viking,  a 26%  interest in an
entity that owns a gas field in the United Kingdom.

Going Concern

For the year ended April 30, 2005 our independent  registered  public accounting
firm issued a going concern opinion. As shown in the financial  statements,  the
Company has  historically  incurred net losses from  operations and has incurred
net losses of approximately  $5,856,000 and $2,704,000 for the nine months ended
January 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively,  and losses are expected to be incurred
in the near term. Current  liabilities  exceeded current assets by approximately
$5,863,000 and $4,114,000 at January 31, 2006 and April 30, 2005,  respectively,
and the accumulated  deficit is  approximately  $30,411,000 at January 31, 2006.
Amounts  outstanding  and payable to creditors are in arrears and the Company is
in  negotiations   with  creditors  to  obtain  extensions  and  settlements  of
outstanding  amounts.   Management   anticipates  that  significant   additional
expenditures  will be  necessary  to develop the  Company's  oil and natural gas
properties,  which consist primarily of proved reserves that are  non-producing,
before  significant  positive  operating  cash flows will be  achieved.  Without
outside  investment  from the sale of equity  securities  or debt  financing our
ability to execute  our  business  plan will be  limited.  These  factors are an
indication that the Company may be unable to continue in existence. Furthermore,
the Texas Railroad  Commission declined a request by the Company for a reduction
in bonding requirements which were recently increased by the State of Texas. The
Company  has not  secured a new bond  which may  impact  operations  at  Mustang
Island. See Note 7.

Management's  plans to alleviate these conditions  include the  renegotiation of
certain  trade  payables,  settlements  of debt amounts with stock,  deferral of
certain  scheduled  payments,  and sales of non core  properties,  as considered
necessary by management. In addition, management is pursuing business partnering
arrangements  for the acquisition  and  development of additional  properties as
well as debt and equity funding through private placements.

The  accompanying  consolidated  financial  statements  are  prepared  as if the
Company will continue as a going concern. The consolidated  financial statements
do not  contain  adjustments,  including  adjustments  to  recorded  assets  and
liabilities,  which might be necessary if the Company were unable to continue as
a going concern.

Note 2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated  financial statements include the accounts of VTEX Energy, Inc.
and  its  wholly  owned  subsidiaries,   Vector  Exploration,  Inc.  and  Viking
International   Petroleum,   PLC  ("Viking")   (see  Note  4).  All  significant
intercompany  accounts and transactions  have been eliminated in  consolidation.
The Company  applies the equity method of accounting  when it is determined that
it can exert  significant  influence,  but not  control,  over the  policies and
decisions of the entity.

                                      -9-
<PAGE>

Certain prior period  amounts have been  reclassified  to conform to the current
period presentation.  These  reclassifications  did not affect the amount of the
net loss, total assets or net equity.

Oil and Natural Gas Properties

The Company  follows the full cost method of accounting  for its oil and natural
gas properties. All costs associated with property acquisition, exploration, and
development  activities  are  capitalized in a single cost center located within
the United  States.  Internal costs directly  identified  with the  acquisition,
exploration  and  development  activities  of the Company are also  capitalized.
Capitalized costs are amortized on the unit-of-production basis using proved oil
and natural gas reserves.  Capitalized costs are subject to a "ceiling test" and
limited to the present  value of estimated  future net revenues  less  estimated
future  expenditures using a discount factor of ten percent.  Should capitalized
costs exceed the present value of our reserves  discounted  at ten percent,  the
excess is charged to operations. Once incurred, an impairment of oil and natural
gas  properties  can not be  reversed  at a later  date.  Impairment  of oil and
natural gas properties is assessed on a quarterly basis in conjunction  with our
quarterly filings with the SEC. Sales of proved and unproved oil and natural gas
properties are treated as reductions of the capitalized  cost pool,  unless such
adjustments would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs
and proved reserves. At January 31, 2006 and April 30, 2005, there were no costs
of unproved properties or major development projects included in the capitalized
cost pool.  The  depletion  rates per Mcfe for the three and nine  months  ended
January   31,  2006  and  2005  were  $1.54  and  $1.59  and  $1.06  and  $1.05,
respectively.

The equity  investment  held by Viking is a 26% ownership in an entity that owns
and operates  various oil and natural gas properties.  The Company subjects this
equity  investment to the same  impairment  criteria used to evaluate its direct
ownership interests in proved oil and natural gas properties.  No impairment was
required as of January 31, 2006 for this equity investment.

Asset Retirement Obligations

The  Company  records a  liability  for legal  obligations  associated  with the
retirement  of  tangible  long-lived  assets  in the  period  in which  they are
incurred in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS")
No. 143 "Accounting for Asset Retirement  Obligations." The Company adopted this
policy  effective May 1, 2003,  using a cumulative  effect approach to recognize
transition amounts for asset retirement  obligations  ("ARO"),  asset retirement
costs  and  accumulated  accretion  and  depletion.   Under  this  method,  when
liabilities for dismantlement and abandonment  costs,  excluding salvage values,
are  initially  recorded the carrying  amount of the related oil and natural gas
properties are increased.  Accretion of the liability is recognized  each period
using the interest method of allocation,  and the  capitalized  cost is depleted
over the useful life of the  related  asset.  Revisions  to such  estimates  are
recorded as  adjustments  to the ARO,  capitalized  asset  retirement  costs and
charges to operations during the periods in which they become known. At the time
the  abandonment  cost is incurred,  the Company will be required to recognize a
gain or loss if the actual costs do not equal the  estimated  costs  included in
ARO (see Note 6).

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company  accounts for stock based  compensation  to employees under the fair
value  method   prescribed  by  SFAS  No.  123,   "Accounting   for  Stock-Based
Compensation." Under the fair value method, compensation cost is measured at the
grant date of each common stock option or warrant based on the fair value of the
award and is recognized  over the vesting  period,  which is usually the service
period.  For common stock options and warrants,  fair value is determined  using
the Black-Scholes  option-pricing model that takes into account the common stock
market price at the grant date,  the exercise  price,  the expected  life of the
common stock option or warrant,  the market  volatility of the underlying common
stock, the dividend yield and the risk-free interest rate over the expected life
of the common stock  option or warrant.  The fair value of a common stock option
or warrant is estimated at the grant date and is not  subsequently  adjusted for
changes in the assumptions used.

Loss Per Share

Loss per share has been calculated  using the weighted  average number of shares
outstanding. Outstanding warrants and other potentially dilutive securities have
been excluded from the  calculation of loss per share,  as their effect would be
anti-dilutive due to the Company incurring a net loss for all periods presented.
At  January  31,  2006 and  2005,  there  were  681,731  and  1,159,500  shares,
respectively,  that the Company was  obligated to issue.  The  weighted  average
effects of these  shares was  486,583 and  783,454  for the three  months  ended

                                      -10-
<PAGE>

January  31, 2006 and 2005,  respectively,  and 295,839 and 516,093 for the nine
months ended  January 31, 2006 and 2005,  respectively.  At January 31, 2006 and
2005, there were 250,000 warrants that were potentially dilutive common shares.

Statement of Cash Flows

For purposes of the consolidated  statement of cash flows, the Company considers
all highly  liquid  investments  purchased  with an  original  maturity of three
months or less to be cash and cash equivalents.

The  following  is a summary of all payments  made for interest and  significant
noncash  financing  activities  for the nine months  ended  January 31, 2006 and
2005, respectively.

Guarantees

Guarantees  are  accounted for in  accordance  with the  provisions of Financial
Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")  Interpretation No. ("FIN") 45, "Guarantor's
Accounting  and  Disclosure  Requirements  for  Guarantees,  Including  Indirect
Guarantees  of  Indebtedness  of  Others."  FIN 45  establishes  disclosure  and
liability-recognition  requirements for direct and indirect debt guarantees with
specified characteristics.

Note 3.  Certificates of Deposit

At January 31, 2006 and April 30, 2005, the Company had  certificates of deposit
totaling $101,807 and $98,917, respectively.  Such certificates bear interest at
rates ranging from 2.52% to 2.81% at January 31, 2006. The maturity dates of the
certificates  ranged from March 20, 2006 to June 3, 2006.  The  certificates  of
deposit  are  collateral   for  letters  of  credit,   with   expiration   dates
corresponding  to the  maturity  dates of the  certificates,  issued in favor of
governmental  agencies  in states in which the  Company  operates  wells.  It is
anticipated that such certificates of deposit and the  corresponding  letters of
credit will be renewed at maturity.

Note 4.  Acquisitions and Dispositions of Oil and Natural Gas Properties

On January 13, 2005,  the Company  executed a purchase and sale  agreement  with
ARCOA Energy  Partners I, L.P.  ("ARCOA".  Under the terms of the agreement,  as
amended,  ARCOA acquired a net profits  interest in three wells on the Company's
Bateman Lake  property  for  $1,800,000.  The net profits  interest is initially
payable  out of 75% of the  monthly  cash flows  attributable  to the  Company's
interest in such wells  until  payout,  including a 12% rate of return.  The net
profits interest will then be reduced to 65% until the well has produced a total
of $7  million  of net cash  flow to the  Company's  working  interest.  The net
profits  interest  will be  further  reduced  to 60%  until  the net cash  flows

                                      -11-
<PAGE>
attributable to the Company's working interest reaches a total of $9 million. At
that time, the net profits interest will be reduced to 50% which will be the net
profits percentage thereafter.  To the extent that ARCOA elects to acquire a net
profits  interest  of less  than  $1,800,000  the net  profits  amounts  will be
proportionately  reduced.  Furthermore,  after June 1, 2006,  ARCOA may elect to
convert  its  net  profits  interest  into  common  stock  of the  Company  at a
conversion rate of $1.25 per share.  The value of the net profits  interest will
be  determined  based  upon the net cash  flows  attributable  to the  reserves,
discounted at 15%.

On December 29, 2005, the Company closed the sale of the net profits interest to
ARCOA. The purchase price consisted of the following:

     Cash                                                   $     710,000
     Notes payable converted into partnership units
        of ARCOA                                                  250,000
     Notes payable assumed by the generaL partner
        of ARCOA                                                  100,000
     Offsets against amounts owed to the general
        partner of ARCOA                                          203,000
     Note receivable from the general partner
        of ARCOA                                                  537,000

                                                            =============

In  connection  with this  transaction,  the  Company  had  received  a total of
$200,000  in  payments  from ARCOA  during the fiscal  year ended April 30, 2005
(such payments were a component of the purchase price described above) which was
recorded as a sale of oil and natural gas properties at the time received.

On  July  29,  2005,  the  Company  completed  the  acquisition  of  all  of the
outstanding shares of Viking.  Viking is a UK registered company with offices in
London and owns a 26%  interest in a company that owns the North  Yorkshire  gas
fields  (an  extension  of the  Southern  North  Sea  Gas  Basin  onshore).  The
properties  include  licenses  covering   approximately  100,000  acres  onshore
including,  four proved  producing  fields,  two proved  undeveloped  fields and
additional  seismically mapped low risk exploration  potential.  Upon closing of
this  acquisition,  the Company  delivered  400,000  shares of its common stock,
valued at $128,000,  to Viking for  distribution  to its  shareholders,  with an
obligation to deliver an additional 1.6 million shares of its common stock. Such
additional shares,  valued at $512,000 were issued on October 18, 2005. Viking's
interest in the gas fields is security for debt in Viking Petroleum UK, Limited.
Such debt is not  currently  in default,  however,  the Company has no assurance
that an event of default will not occur.  Additionally,  prior to the closing of
the  acquisition,  the Company  advanced  $127,757 to Viking for working capital
purposes.  This amount is  considered a component of the purchase  price paid to
acquire  the stock of  Viking.  This  transaction  has been  recorded  using the
purchase  method of accounting  and the results of operations  subsequent to the
acquisition date are recorded in the  consolidated  results of operations of the
Company.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired

Lines of Credit

The Company has a $10.0 million  revolving credit line with an entity controlled
by the  brother of the  Company's  president.  The  credit  line is subject to a
borrowing  base formula.  At January 31, 2006, the Company had drawn the maximum
available  under the borrowing base on the revolving  credit line of $3,624,707.
Additional  borrowings are not available without the consent of the lender.  The
line of credit is secured by all of the Company's oil and natural gas properties
and bears interest at the rate of 7.5%.  Accrued  interest on the line of credit
totaled $205,566 at January 31, 2006. Under its terms, the line of credit was to
accrue  interest  through October 31, 2005, at which time interest was to be due
monthly. Beginning in November 2006, the principal balance outstanding under the
line of  credit  was to  convert  to a term  note  payable  in 48 equal  monthly
installments  along with current  interest.  The Company is not currently making
payments  under the terms of the converted and interest on the line of credit is
continuing to accrue.  The Company is currently in discussion with the lender to
modify the terms of the note, but no definitive agreement has yet been reached.

On April 8, 2004, the Company entered into a $250,000 revolving credit agreement

purchase  5,000  shares of the  Company's  common stock at $0.50 per share which
expired on January 26,  2006.  The stock and  warrants  issued were  recorded at

the holders of notes  totaling  $30,000 to further  extend the maturity dates of
the notes to December  31, 2005 in return for the  issuance of 18,000  shares of

of the wells.  The investors are entitled to recoup their investment out of 100%
of the future  production,  if any,  from the  wells.  These  transactions  were
treated,  by the Company,  as loans  repayable out of production from designated
wells for accounting purposes.  The stock issued was recorded at its fair market

totaled $4,256 and $1,992 at January 31, 2006 and April 30, 2005,  respectively.
Although  certain  of the  wells  covered  by the  production  loans  have  been
producing,  the Company has not made any principal  payments under the loans. In

loans  100,000  shares  of the  Company's  common  stock  in  return  for  their
forbearance  under the  production  loans  until the  earlier of the first month

2004.  The stock  issued was  recorded at its fair  market  value of $57,500 and
treated as deferred loan cost which was amortized  over six months.  In December
of 2004,  the  Company  reached an  agreement  with the  holders of the loans to
increase the interest rate to 6%, begin paying interest monthly on the loans and
to convert the accrued  interest of $51,503 into principal.  In August 2005, the

stock at $0.50 per share  which  expire on August  15,  2007 in return for their
forbearance  under the loans  until  December  31,  2005.  The common  stock and
warrants  were  recorded  at their fair value of $64,112 and treated as deferred
loan costs which were  amortized over the terms of the  forbearance.  In January
2006,  the Company  agreed to issue one of the holders of the  production  loans
60,301 shares of its common stock and warrants to purchase  30,150 shares of the

In December  2000,  the Company  issued an  undivided  10% interest in six wells
located in the Mustang  Island  Field to Old Jersey Oil  Ventures,  LLC for cash

principal  in Old Jersey Oil  Ventures,  LLC.  Old Jersey Oil  Ventures,  LLC is
entitled to recoup its investment out of future production from the wells in the
Mustang Island Field.  The  transaction was treated,  by the Company,  as a loan
rpayable out of production from designated  wells for accounting  purposes.  The
production  loan began accruing  interest on January 1, 2001 at 5.25%. In March,
2004,  the Company  issued Old Jersey Oil  Ventures,  LLC 400,000  shares of the
Company's  common stock in return for forbearance  under the production  payment
until the  earlier of the first month  following  the month in which the Company
has positive  cash flow or August 1, 2004.  The stock issued was recorded at its
fair  market  value of $176,000  and  treated as a deferred  loan cost which was
amortized  over five  months.  On April 30,  2005,  the  production  payment and
$240,438 in accrued  interest was transferred  into the Company's line of credit

Note 6.  Asset Retirement Obligations

Beginning  in fiscal  2004,  SFAS No. 143  requires  the Company to recognize an
estimated  liability for the plugging and abandonment of its oil and natural gas
wells  and  associated  pipelines,  platforms,  and  equipment.  This  statement
requires  the  Company  to record a  liability  in the period in which its asset
retirement  obligation  ("ARO") is  incurred.  Upon initial  recognition  of the
liability,  the Company must capitalize a corresponding  asset cost equal to the
amount of the  liability.  Upon adoption of SFAS No. 143 the Company  recognized
(1) a liability  for any existing  ARO's,  (2)  corresponding  capitalized  cost
related  to  the  liability,   (3)  accumulated   depletion,   depreciation  and
amortization on that capitalized cost, and (4) a cumulative effect of accounting
change.

The  estimated  liability  is based on  historical  experience  in plugging  and
abandoning wells and associated pipelines,  platforms, and equipment,  estimated
remaining lives of those wells based on reserve  estimates and federal and state
regulatory   requirements.   The  liability  is  discounted   using  an  assumed
credit-adjusted  risk-free rate of 7.5%.  Revisions to the liability could occur
due to changes in estimates of plugging and  abandonment  costs,  changes in the
risk-free  rate  or  remaining  lives  of the  wells,  or if  federal  or  state
regulators  enact new plugging  and  abandonment  requirements.  At the time the
abandonment  cost is incurred,  the Company will be required to recognize a gain
or loss if the actual  costs do not equal the  estimated  costs  included in the
ARO.

The adoption of SFAS No. 143 was effective beginning May 1, 2003 and resulted in
an adjustment to record (1) an  $1,084,028  ARO, (2) a $850,194  increase in the
carrying  value of proved  properties,  (3) a $41,699  increase  in  accumulated
depletion, and (4) a $275,533 one-time cumulative effect of change in accounting
principle.

The following table describes all changes to the Company's ARO liability:

Note 7.  Commitments and Contingencies

The Texas Railroad  Commission declined a request by the Company for a reduction
in bonding  requirements which were recently increased by the State of Texas for
operators of certain  wells  located in offshore and bay State of Texas  waters.
The  Company  is seeking a bond at this  increased  level but does not have such
bond in place at this time. There is no assurance that a bond can be obtained or
that such bond would be available on commercial terms acceptable to the Company.
The Company requested  reconsideration by the Texas Railroad  Commission of this
decision and such request was declined on March 27, 2006. The Company intends to
appeal such decision to the district  court.  Until a final  decision is made in
this matter,  the Company will be allowed to continue its  operations  under its
current  bond.  Should  the  Company  not be  successful  in  reducing  the bond
requirement,  or alternatively  obtain a bond at the increased  requirement,  or
provide other  satisfactory  security the Company could be required to outsource
offshore operations of the property.

As a member of Mustang Island Gathering,  LLC, a Texas limited liability company
and pipeline  operator,  the Company has been required to guarantee a portion of
the LLC's bank debt, which is approximately  $1.1 million in the aggregate.  The
Company's  share of such  guarantee is  approximately  $40,000.  Due to positive
financial  performance of the pipeline,  the likelihood that the Company will be
required to perform under this guarantee is remote thus no amount is recorded to
reflect the obligation under this guarantee.

Subsequent  to June 1,  2006,  ARCOA  shall  have the right to  convert  its net
profits  interest into common stock of the Company at a conversion rate of $1.25
per share.  The value of the net profits  interest will be determined based upon
the net cash flows attributable to the reserves, discounted at 15%.

From time to time,  the  Company is party to certain  legal  actions  and claims
arising in the ordinary  course of  business.  While the outcome of these events
cannot be predicted with certainty,  management does not expect these matters to
have a materially adverse effect on the financial position of the Company.

The  operations  and financial  position of the Company  continue to be affected
from time to time in varying  degrees by domestic and political  developments as
well as  legislation  and  regulations  pertaining  to  restrictions  on oil and
natural gas  production,  natural gas regulation,  tax increases,  environmental
regulations and cancellation of contract rights. Both the likelihood and overall
effect of such occurrences on the Company vary greatly and are not predictable.

General Overview

     VTEX Energy, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "Company"),  is an independent
oil and natural gas company  engaged in acquiring,  exploiting,  developing  and
operating oil and natural gas  properties,  with a focus on Texas and Louisiana.
The Company has two wholly  owned  subsidiaries,  Vector  Exploration,  Inc. and
Viking Petroleum International, PLC, and is headquartered in Houston, Texas.

         The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Texas on
June 18, 1998 as Vector Energy Corporation ("Vector") which was a wholly owned
subsidiary of Sunburst Acquisitions II, Inc. ("Sunburst"). Vector was formed for
the purpose of completing a reverse merger with Sunburst in order to change
Sunburst's name to Vector Energy Corporation and its state of incorporation from
Colorado to Texas. This merger was completed on June 19, 1998. Effective
November 15, 2002, the Company was reincorporated in Nevada. The reincorporation
was effected by the merger of Vector with and into a newly created, wholly owned
subsidiary, VTEX Energy, Inc., a Nevada Corporation, which became the surviving
entity.

     From its inception through March 2000, the Company  consummated a series of
oil and natural gas property  acquisitions  in Texas,  Louisiana  and  Oklahoma.
These  acquisitions  were funded primarily through the issuance of the Company's
stock and the Company's assumption of debt and other liabilities. The properties
acquired were a combination of producing properties and properties considered to
have future development potential.

     A lack of working capital and the service  requirements of the debt assumed
by the Company in its  acquisitions  prevented the Company from fully developing
the  properties  it had  acquired.  Accordingly,  the Company  identified  those
properties that had the most potential for future development,  and beginning in
July  2002  began  selling  its non  core  non  strategic  oil and  natural  gas

                                      -19-
<PAGE>
properties.  The proceeds from the property  sales allowed the Company to reduce
and restructure its debt, while retaining enough capital to begin development of
the properties retained.

     The  estimated  proved oil and natural gas reserves of the Company at April
30, 2005 were 103,000  barrels of crude oil and  condensate  and  9,424,000  Mcf
(thousand  cubic feet) of natural gas.  These  reserves  have an  estimated  $30
million  in future net cash  flow,  discounted  at 10%.  Of these  reserves,  an
estimated  50,000  barrels  of crude oil and  condensate  and  4,130,000  MCF of
natural gas with an estimated $13 million in future net cash flow, discounted at
10%, are considered to be proved developed.  The Company's  reserves are located
in two fields, Bateman Lake and Mustang Island 818-L.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended January 31, 2006 Compared to Three Months Ended
January 31, 2005

     Oil and natural gas revenues  for the three  months ended  January 31, 2006
increased  9% to  $153,278,  compared to $140,362  for the same period in fiscal
2005.  Production  volumes for natural gas during the three months ended January
31, 2006  decreased  11%,  to 18,102  Mcf,  compared to 20,421 Mcf for the three
months ended January 31, 2006.  Average  natural gas prices for the three months
ended January 31, 2006 increased 23% to $8.47 per Mcf, compared to $6.87 per Mcf
for the same period in fiscal 2005.  There was no oil  production for either the
three  months  ended  January  31,  2006 or 2005.  The  decrease  in natural gas
production  was  primarily  due to the wells at the  Bateman  Lake  Field  being
shut-in pending completion of certain repairs.

     The following table summarizes production volumes, average sales prices and
operating  revenues for the  Company's  oil and natural gas  operations  for the
three months ended January 31, 2006 and 2005.

     Production  expenses for the three months ended January 31, 2006  increased
22% to  $183,863  compared  to  $151,050  for the same  period in  fiscal  2005.
Production  expense per  equivalent  unit  increased  to $10.16 per Mcfe for the
three  months  ended  January 31,  2006  compared to $7.40 in the same period in
fiscal  2005.  This  increase  in  production  expense per Mcfe is caused by the
effect of fixed lease operating  expenses combined with a decrease in production
volumes.

                                      -20-

     Depreciation  and depletion  expense  decreased  from $35,642 for the three
months ended  January 31, 2005 to $31,996 for the three months ended January 31,
2006.  This 10% decrease was primarily due to an 11% decrease in Mcfe production
volumes  partially  offset by a negative  revision in reserve  volume  estimates
since April 30, 2004 which increased the depletion rate on an Mcfe basis.

     General and administrative  expenses for the three months ended January 31,
2006  increased by $1,595,711  to $2,271,715  compared to $676,004 for the three
months ended January 31, 2005.  The increase was primarily due to an increase of
$1,614,570  in  contract  services,  which  included  stock  warrants  issued to
consultants  whose value of  $1,033,380  was  expensed  in the third  quarter of
fiscal 2006. Also included in general and administrative  expenses for the three
months ended January 31, 2006 was $159,457  relating to Viking,  whose  expenses
have been included in the Company's operations since July 29, 2005.

     Accretion  expense for the three months ended January 31, 2006 increased by
$1,305 to $23,981  compared to $22,676 for the three  months  ended  January 31,
2005. This increase was due to the normal compound effect of the discount factor
attributable to the Company's asset retirement obligation.

     Interest  expense for the three months ended January 31, 2006  increased by
56% to $374,147 from  $240,139 for the same period in fiscal 2005.  The increase
in interest  expense was due  primarily to an increase in weighted  average debt
from  $4,319,662  for the three months ended January 31, 2005 to $7,259,464  for
the three  months  ended  January 31, 2006.  Amortization  of loan  discount and
deferred loan costs included in interest expense increased from $157,597 for the
three  months  ended  January 31, 2005 to $210,380  for the three  months  ended
January 31, 2006.

Nine Months Ended January 31, 2006 Compared to Nine Months Ended
January 31, 2005

     Oil and natural gas  revenues  for the nine months  ended  January 31, 2006
decreased  36% to  $566,508,  compared to $891,548 for the same period in fiscal
2005.  Production  volumes for natural gas during the nine months ended  January
31, 2006  decreased  43%,  to 77,763  Mcf,  compared to 135,882 Mcf for the nine
months ended  January 31, 2005.  Average  natural gas prices for the nine months
ended January 31, 2006 increased 17% to $7.21 per Mcf, compared to $6.14 per Mcf
for the same  period in fiscal  2005.  Production  volumes  for oil for the nine
months ended January 31, 2006 decreased to 92 barrels compared to 1,628 produced
during the nine months ended  January 31, 2005.  Average oil prices for the nine
months ended  January 31, 2006  increased  78% to $62.79 per barrel  compared to
$35.21 per barrel for the same period in fiscal  2005.  The  decrease in oil and
natural gas  production was primarily due to the wells at the Bateman Lake Field
being shut-in pending completion of certain repairs.

     Production expenses for the nine months ended January 31, 2006 increased 9%
to $531,336 compared to $488,652 for the same period in fiscal 2005.  Production
expense  per  equivalent  unit  increased  to $6.78 per Mcfe for the nine months
ended January 31, 2006 compared to $3.35 in the same period in fiscal 2005. This
increase in  production  expense per Mcfe is caused by the effect of fixed lease
operating expenses combined with a decrease in production volumes.

     Depreciation  and depletion  expense  decreased  from $166,157 for the nine
months ended  January 31, 2005 to $136,941 for the nine months ended January 31,
2006.  This 18% decrease was primarily due to a 46% decrease in Mcfe  production
volumes  partially  offset by a negative  revision in reserve  volume  estimates
since April 30, 2004 which increased the depletion rate on an Mcfe basis.

     General and  administrative  expenses for the nine months ended January 31,
2006  increased by $2,546,122 to $4,779,044  compared to $2,232,922 for the nine
months ended January 31, 2005.  The increase was primarily due to the fair value
of stock options issued to executive  officers and directors of $1,280,000 which
was  expensed  in the first  quarter of fiscal  2006 and the fair value of stock
warrants  issued for contract  services of $1,033,380  which was expensed in the
third  quarter of fiscal  2006.  Also  included  in general  and  administrative
expenses  for the nine months ended  January 31, 2006 was  $404,223  relating to
Viking, whose expenses have been included in the Company's operations since July
29, 2005.

     Accretion  expense for the nine months ended January 31, 2006  increased by
$3,839 to $70,625  compared  to $66,786 for the nine  months  ended  January 31,
2005. This increase was due to the normal compound effect of the discount factor
attributable to the Company's asset retirement obligation.

     Interest  expense for the nine months ended  January 31, 2006  increased by
47% to $959,867 from  $652,893 for the same period in fiscal 2005.  The increase
in interest  expense was due  primarily to an increase in weighted  average debt
from $4,007,751 for the nine months ended January 31, 2005 to $6,638,874 for the
nine months ended January 31, 2006.  Amortization  of loan discount and deferred
loan costs  included in interest  expense  decreased  from $437,395 for the nine
months ended  January 31, 2005 to $518,996 for the nine months ended January 31,
2006.

Financial Condition and Capital Resources

     Since its  inception,  the  Company  has  suffered  recurring  losses  from
operations and has been dependent on existing  stockholders and new investors to
provide the cash  resources  to sustain its  operations.  During the nine months
ended January 31, 2006 and 2005, the Company  reported  losses of  approximately
$5,856,000  and  $2,704,000,  respectively.  The Company's  continuing  negative
operating  results  have  produced a working  capital  deficit of  approximately
$5,863,000 at January 31, 2006. These factors raise  substantial doubt about the
Company's  ability to  continue  as a going  concern.  The  Company's  long-term
viability as a going concern is dependent  upon the Company's  ability to obtain
sources of outside  financing to support near term  operations  and to allow the
Company to make strategic investments in new oil and natural gas prospects which
will provide the Company the ability to increase revenue and  profitability  and
sustain a cash flow level that will ensure support for continuing operations.

     For the past three months,  the Company's oil and natural gas revenues have
been  sufficient  to satisfy its oil and natural gas  operating  expenses  and a
portion of its general and administrative  expenses.  The Company has funded the
remainder of its general and administrative  expenses and the development of its
oil and natural gas properties through additional  borrowings under its lines of
credit, through short term investor notes, proceeds from the sale of its oil and
gas  properties  and issuance of its common  stock.  Additional  funding will be
required in the near term to meet the capital needs of the Company.  The Company
is  evaluating  various  financing  alternatives  such as the  issuance of debt,
private placements of its common and preferred stock, sales of interests in some
of its oil and natural gas properties and joint ventures with industry partners.
There is no guarantee  that the Company  will be  successful  in obtaining  such
financing,  or that  the  terms  of any  financing  obtained  will  be on  terms
favorable  to the  Company.  Any  inability  of the Company to raise  additional
capital will limit the development of most of its oil and natural gas properties
and may prevent the Company  from  meeting its cash  requirements.  If the wells
which are  currently  being  brought into  production  through  development  and
workovers perform as expected,  additional cash flows may be available; however,
there is no assurance that such cash flows will in fact be available or that the
wells  will,  in  fact,  perform  as  expected.  In the  absence  of  such  well
performance  or  financing,  the Company will not be able to meet its  financial
obligations.

     The Texas  Railroad  Commission  declined  a request by the  Company  for a
reduction in bonding  requirements which were recently increased by the State of
Texas for  operators of certain wells located in offshore and bay State of Texas
waters.  The Company is seeking a bond at this increased level but does not have
such  bond in  place at this  time.  There  is no  assurance  that a bond can be
obtained or that such bond would be available on commercial  terms acceptable to
the  Company.  The  Company  requested  reconsideration  by the  Texas  Railroad
Commission of this decision and such request was declined on March 27, 2006. The
Company  intends to appeal such  decision to the district  court.  Until a final
decision is made in this  matter,  the Company  will be allowed to continue  its

                                      -22-
<PAGE>
     operations under its current bond.  Should the Company not be successful in
reducing the bond requirement,  or alternatively  obtain a bond at the increased
requirement,  or  provide  other  satisfactory  security  the  Company  could be
required to outsource offshore operations of the property.

     The  Company is  currently  negotiating  with many of the vendors for which
accounts  payable  were  assumed in prior asset  acquisition  transactions,  and
believes that a significant  portion of these payables can be satisfied  through
the issuance of common stock.

Financing Arrangements

     The  Company  has a $10.0  million  revolving  credit  line  with an entity
controlled by the brother of the Company's president. The credit line is subject
to a borrowing  base  formula.  At January 31,  2006,  the Company had drawn the
maximum  available  under the  borrowing  base on the  revolving  credit line of
$3,624,707.  Additional  borrowings are not available without the consent of the
lender.  The line of credit is secured by all of the  Company's  oil and natural
gas properties and bears interest at the rate of 7.5%.  Accrued  interest on the
line of credit totaled  $205,566 at January 31, 2006.  Under its terms, the line
of credit  was to accrue  interest  through  October  31,  2005,  at which  time
interest  was to be due  monthly.  Beginning  in November  2006,  the  principal
balance  outstanding  under the line of  credit  was to  convert  to a term note
payable in 48 equal  monthly  installments  along with  current  interest.  Such
conversion  of the line of credit  into a term note has not yet taken  place and
interest on the line of credit is continuing to accrue. The Company is currently
in  discussion  with the  lender  to delay  the  conversion,  but no  definitive
agreement has yet been reached.

     On April 8, 2004,  the Company  entered  into a $250,000  revolving  credit
agreement with Hibernia Bank. The note has been guaranteed by a private investor
who received  100,000 shares of the Company's  common stock with a fair value of
$49,000 as consideration for such guarantee.  The fair value of the common stock
was  expensed  when  incurred.  Interest  on this note is  payable  monthly at a
floating  rate of prime plus  1.097%  (8.347% and 6.847% at January 31, 2006 and
April 30, 2005, respectively.) The outstanding balance under the note, which was
$245,001 and $246,537 at January 31, 2006 and April 30, 2005,  respectively,  is
due upon demand.

     On June 21,  2005,  the Company  entered into a $500,000  revolving  credit
agreement with Bank of Texas.  The note was guaranteed by a private investor who
received  200,000 shares of the Company's  common stock and warrants to purchase
100,000 shares of the Company's  common stock at $0.50.  The value of the common
stock and warrants,  which is $88,490,  has been included in deferred loan costs
and is being  amortized  over the life of the  loan.  Interest  on this  note is
payable  quarterly at the prime rate,  which was 7.25% at January 31, 2006.  The
note has a balance of $500,000 at January 31, 2006 and matures on June 20, 2006.

     The Company has outstanding  production  payments in the amount of $303,504
at January 31, 2006. In August 2005,  the Company agreed to issue the holders of
the production loans 120,602 shares of its common stock and warrants to purchase
60,300 shares of the  Company's  common stock at $0.50 per share which expire on
August 15, 2007 in return for their  forbearance  under the loans until December
31, 2005.  The common stock and  warrants  were  recorded at their fair value of
$64,112 and treated as deferred loan costs which were amortized over the term of
the forbearance. In January 2006, the Company agreed to issue one of the holders
of the  production  loans  60,301  shares of its common  stock and  warrants  to
purchase  30,150 shares of the  Company's  common stock at $0.50 per share which
expire on January 4, 2008 in return for his  forbearance  under the loans  until
December 31, 2006.  In addition,  the Company  agreed to begin making  principal
payments of $2,000 per month  through  December 31,  2006.  The common stock and
warrants  were  recorded  at their fair value of $36,777 and treated as deferred
loan costs  which are being  amortized  over the terms of the  forbearance.  The
Company  is  currently  holding  discussions  with the  holder of the  remaining
production payments in order to obtain his forbearance,  however there can be no
assurance that such  forbearance  will be obtained or will be on terms favorable
to the Company.

     From time to time the Company  incurs notes  payable to settle  outstanding
accounts  payable  and other  liabilities,  finance  expenditures  and  generate
working  capital.  The  balances  of such  notes  payable  were  $2,516,894  and
$1,377,333 at October 31, 2005 and April 30, 2005, respectively.

     As a member of Mustang Island Gathering,  LLC ( the "LLC"), a Texas limited
liability  company and  pipeline  operator,  the  Company  has been  required to
guarantee a portion of the LLC's bank debt, which is approximately  $1.1 million
in the  aggregate.  The  Company's  share  of such  guarantee  is  approximately
$40,000. Due to the financial  performance of the pipeline,  the likelihood that
the Company will be required to perform  under this  guarantee is remote thus no
amount is recorded to reflect the obligation under this guarantee.

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities

     Cash flows p operating activities were $2,148,687 for the nine months ended
January 31, 2006 as compared to $569,678  provided by operating  activities  for
the nine months ended  January 31, 2005.  This decrease was primarily due to the
Company  beginning  to  utilize  some  of the  working  capital  raised  by debt
offerings to pay past operating  costs which had been deferred,  combined with a
decrease in oil and natural gas  revenues and an increase in  professional  fees
incurred.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities

     Cash flows  provided  by  investing  activities  were  $10,790 for the nine
months  ended  January  31, 2006 as compared  to  $1,521,842  used by  investing
activities  for the nine months ended  January 31, 2005.  This  increase was due
primarily  to  a  decrease  of   $1,099,243  in  oil  and  natural  gas  capital
expenditures incurred related to workovers and a recompletion performed on three
wells in the Bateman Lake field during fiscal 2005. In addition, the Company had
proceeds from the sale of oil and natural gas properties of $475,000  during the
nine months ended January 31, 2006.

Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities

     Net cash flows provided by financing  activities totaled $2,104,579 for the
nine months ended January 31, 2006 primarily from borrowings under a new line of
credit from a bank and notes payable to investors  combined totaling  $2,291,775
offset by debt repayments  totaling  $174,696.  Net cash provided from financing
activities totaled $863,678 for the nine months ended January 31, 2005 primarily
from  borrowings  under a new line of credit  from a bank and notes  payable  to
investors  totaling  $1,151,800  offset by the net  repayments  of debt totaling
$123,878.

Critical Accounting Policies

         The following summarizes several of our critical accounting policies:

Use of Estimates

     The preparation of financial  statements in conformity with U.S.  generally
accepted  accounting  principles  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 periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates.  The use of
these estimates  significantly  affects  natural gas and oil properties  through
depletion and the full cost ceiling test, as discussed in more detail below.

Oil and Natural Gas Properties

     We account  for  investments  in natural gas and oil  properties  using the
full-cost  method  of  accounting.   All  costs  directly  associated  with  the
acquisition,  exploration  and development of natural gas and oil properties are
capitalized.  These costs  include  lease  acquisitions,  seismic  surveys,  and
drilling and completion  equipment.  We expense  maintenance and repairs as they
are incurred.

     We amortize natural gas and oil properties based on the  unit-of-production
method using  estimates  of proved  reserve  quantities.  The  amortizable  base
includes   estimated   future   development   costs  and,   where   significant,
dismantlement,  restoration  and  abandonment  costs,  net of estimated  salvage
values. The depletion rates per Mcfe for the three and nine months ended January
31, 2006 and 2005 were $1.54 and $1.59 and $1.06 and $1.05, respectively.

     We  account  for   dispositions  of  natural  gas  and  oil  properties  as
adjustments to capitalized  costs with no gain or loss  recognized,  unless such
adjustments would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs
and proved reserves.  We have not had any transactions that significantly  alter
that relationship.

     The net  capitalized  costs of proved oil and  natural gas  properties  are
subject to a "ceiling  test" which  limits such costs to the  estimated  present
value,  discounted  at a 10% interest  rate,  of future net revenues from proved
reserves, based on current economic and operating conditions. If net capitalized
costs exceed this limit, the excess is charged to operations  through depletion,
depreciation and amortization.

                                      -24-
<PAGE>

Oil and Natural Gas Reserve Estimates

     The reserve data  included in this document for the fiscal year ended April
30, 2005 and  thereafter  are  estimates  prepared  by D.  Raymond  Perry,  Jr.,
Independent  Petroleum Engineer.  Reserve engineering is a subjective process of
estimating underground  accumulations of hydrocarbons that cannot be measured in
an exact manner.  The process relies on  interpretation  of available  geologic,
geophysical,   engineering  and  production   data.  The  extent,   quality  and
reliability  of this data can vary. The process also requires  certain  economic
assumptions  regarding  drilling and operating  expense,  capital  expenditures,
taxes and availability of funds. The SEC mandates some of these assumptions such
as oil and natural gas prices and the present value discount rate.

     You should not assume  that the  present  value of future net cash flows is
the current market value of our estimated  proved  reserves.  In accordance with
SEC requirements,  we based the estimated  discounted future net cash flows from
proved reserves on prices and costs on the date of the estimate.

     Our rate of recording depreciation,  depletion and amortization expense for
proved properties  depends on our estimate of proved reserves.  If these reserve
estimates decline, the rate at which we record these expenses will increase.

Asset Retirement Obligations

     The Company records a liability for legal  obligations  associated with the
retirement  of  tangible  long-lived  assets  in the  period  in which  they are
incurred in  accordance  with SFAS No.  143,  "Accounting  for Asset  Retirement
Obligations."  The Company  adopted this policy  effective May 1, 2003,  using a
cumulative effect approach to recognize  transition amounts for asset retirement
obligations,  asset  retirement  costs and accumulated  accretion and depletion.
Under this method,  when liabilities for  dismantlement  and abandonment  costs,
excluding  salvage values,  are initially  recorded,  the carrying amount of the
related oil and natural gas properties are increased. Accretion of the liability
is  recognized  each period using the  interest  method of  allocation,  and the
capitalized cost is depleted over the useful life of the related asset.

Contingencies

     Liabilities and other contingencies are recognized upon determination of an
exposure,  which when analyzed  indicates that it is both probable that an asset
has been  impaired or that a liability  has been incurred and that the amount of
such loss is reasonably estimable.

Volatility of Oil and Natural Gas Prices

         Our revenues, future rate of growth, results of operations, financial
condition and ability to borrow funds or obtain additional capital, as well as
the carrying value of our properties, are substantially dependent upon
prevailing prices of oil and natural gas.

Acquisition and Disposition of Oil and Natural Gas Properties

     On January 13, 2005,  the Company  executed a purchase  and sale  agreement
with ARCOA Energy Partners I, L.P.  ("ARCOA"),  which was subsequently  amended.
Under the terms of the  agreement,  as  amended,  ARCOA  acquired a net  profits
interest in three wells on the Company's  Bateman Lake property for  $1,800,000.
The net profits  interest is  initially  payable out of 75% of the monthly  cash
flows  attributable  to the  Company's  interest  in such  wells  until  payout,
including a 12% rate of return. The net profits interest will then be reduced to
65% until the well has  produced  a total of $7  million of net cash flow to the
Company's working interest.  The net profits interest will be further reduced to
60% until the net cash flows  attributable  to the  Company's  working  interest
reaches a total of $9 million.  At that time,  the net profits  interest will be
reduced  to 50% which  will be the net  profits  percentage  thereafter.  To the
extent  that  ARCOA  elects  to  acquire  a net  profits  interest  of less than
$1,800,000 the net profits amounts will be proportionately reduced. Furthermore,
after June 1, 2006,  ARCOA may elect to convert  its net profits  interest  into
common stock of the Company at a conversion  rate of $1.25 per share.  The value
of the net profits  interest  will be  determined  based upon the net cash flows
attributable to the reserves, discounted at 15%.

     On July 29,  2005,  the Company  completed  the  acquisition  of all of the
outstanding shares of Viking.  Viking is a UK registered company with offices in
London and owns a 26%  interest in a company that owns the North  Yorkshire  gas
fields  (an  extension  of the  Southern  North  Sea  Gas  Basin  onshore).  The
properties  include  licenses  covering   approximately  100,000  acres  onshore

                                      -25-
<PAGE>
including,  four proved  producing  fields,  two proved  undeveloped  fields and
additional  seismically mapped low risk exploration  potential.  Upon closing of
this  acquisition,  the Company  delivered  400,000  shares of its common stock,
valued at $128,000,  to Viking for  distribution  to its  shareholders,  with an
obligation  to deliver an additional  1.6 million  shares of its common stock if
certain defined goals are met or six months from the  acquisition,  unless there
is a  foreclosure  on the assets of Viking's  interest  in the gas fields.  Such
additional shares,  valued at $512,000 were issued on October 18, 2005. Viking's
interest in the gas fields is security for debt in Viking Petroleum UK, Limited.
Such debt is not currently in default, however the Company has no assurance that
an event of default  will not occur.  Additionally,  prior to the closing of the
acquisition,  the  Company  advanced  $127,757  to Viking  for  working  capital
purposes.  This amount is  considered a component of the purchase  price paid to
acquire  the stock of  Viking.  This  transaction  has been  recorded  using the
purchase  method of accounting  and the results of operations  subsequent to the
acquisition date are recorded in the  consolidated  results of operations of the
Company.

     On October 7, 2005,  the Company  entered into an agreement  with  Marathon
Capital, LLC ("Marathon") and U.S. Energy Systems, Inc. ("USEY") to jointly seek
to acquire the assets owned by Viking  Petroleum UK Limited,  an entity in which
the Company owns a 26% interest through its wholly owned subsidiary  Viking. The
acquisition  will be made through a newly created entity which will be owned 25%
by each of Marathon and the Company in  consideration  of their  contribution of
assets and/or services, and 50% will be owned by an entity USEY will organize in
consideration of a capital  contribution of up to $5 million.  It is anticipated
that the  aggregate  purchase  price for the assets  will be  approximately  $60
million, of which $5 million will consist of the contributed capital. Additional
funding of the acquisition is expected to consist of project  financing  secured
by the acquired assets.  The acquisition is subject to a number of uncertainties
including  the ability to  purchase  the assets  from the  current  owners,  the
availability and commercial terms of project  financing,  and the performance of
our joint venture partners.  There can be no assurance that the transaction will
be consummated  based on these and other factors that are not within the control
of the Company.

Item 3.     Controls and Procedures

     Disclosure  controls and procedures are controls and other  procedures that
are  designed to ensure that  information  required to be  disclosed  in Company
reports  filed or submitted  under the  Security and Exchange Act are  recorded,
processed,  summarized  and reported  within the time  periods  specified in the
Securities and Exchange  Commission's rules and forms.  Disclosure  controls and
procedures  include,  without  limitation,  controls and procedures  designed to
ensure that information  required to be disclosed in Company reports filed under
the Securities and Exchange Act is accumulated  and  communicated to management,
including the  Company's  President  and Chief  Executive  Officer and the Chief
Financial Officer, as appropriate,  to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosure.

     The  Company's  Chief  Executive   Officer  and  Chief  Financial   Officer
(collectively,  the "Certifying  Officers") are responsible for establishing and
maintaining  disclosure  controls  and  procedures  (as  defined  in  Securities
Exchange Act Rule  13a-15(e))  for the Company.  Such  officers  have  concluded
(based upon their  evaluation  of these  controls  and  procedures  as of a date
within  90 days of the  filing of this  report)  that the  Company's  disclosure
controls and  procedures  are not adequate  and  effective  for purposes of Rule
13a-14(c)  in timely  alerting  them to  material  information  relating  to the
Company required to be included in the Company's  filings with the SEC under the
Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934.  The reasons for our  determination  that our
internal controls and procedures are not effective are detailed below.

     The Company currently employs one person in the accounting  department (the
Chief  Financial  Officer) who is responsible  for the day to day accounting and
SEC reporting  function of the Company.  Daily  transactions  are accounted for,
reconciled and processed to our accounting  records solely by this person.  This
is   considered   a   material   weakness   due  to  lack  of   segregation   of
responsibilities. The lack of resources in the accounting and reporting function
of our internal controls also resulted in the Company not being able to file its
quarterly financial  statements during the year ended April 30, 2005 and for the
quarterly periods ended July 31, 2005,  October 31, 2005 and January 31, 2006 on
a timely basis. As of the date of this filing the Company is compliant in all of
its filings. Furthermore, during the course of completing the audit for the year
ended April 30, 2005, several accounting  adjustments were identified  requiring
adjustments to the current year and restatement of the financial  statements for
the year  ended  April 30,  2004 and to  various  of its Form  10-QSBs  for each
respective year.

     As a result  of the items  mentioned  above,  the  Company  has a  material
weakness in its internal  control over the financial  reporting  and  disclosure
function due to the lack accounting resources available for the daily processing
of transactions and account  reconciliations  and the reporting of our financial

                                      -26-

     statements within the appropriate  filings in the time required.  This void
in available  accounting  resources increases the likelihood to more than remote
that a  material  misstatement  of the  Company's  annual or  interim  financial
statements will not be prevented or detected in a timely manner.

     Executive  management of the Company is currently evaluating its accounting
resource needs and anticipates  employing further  accounting  assistance in the
near term. Management believes that additional accounting assistance,  including
increased  technical  resources,  will  mitigate  the  circumstances  that  have
resulted  in our  evaluation  of  internal  controls  and  procedures  as having
material weaknesses.

     There has been no change in our internal controls over financial  reporting
that occurred during the three months ended January 31, 2006 that has materially
affected,  or is reasonably likely to materially  affect,  our internal controls
over financial reporting.
