Proxy Statement for the Annual and Special Meeting of Stockholders

The enclosed proxy is solicited on behalf of our Board of Directors (the "Board") for use at the Annual and Special Meeting of Stockholders (the "Meeting") to be held on July 12, 2010 at 10:00 a.m. (Vancouver time) at 1210-777 Hornby Street, Vancouver, British Columbia V6Z 1S4, or at any continuation, postponement or adjournment thereof, for the purposes discussed in this proxy statement and in the accompanying Notice of Annual and Special Meeting and any business properly brought before the Meeting. Proxies are solicited to give all stockholders of record an opportunity to vote on matters properly presented at the Meeting. We intend to mail this proxy statement and accompanying proxy card on or about June 18, 2010 to all stockholders entitled to vote at the Meeting.

Unless the context requires otherwise, references to "we", "us" "our" and "Eden Energy" refer to Eden Energy Corp.

Who Can Vote

You are entitled to vote if you were a holder of record of shares of our common stock, $0.001 par value per share ("Shares") as of the close of business on June 10, 2010 (the "Record Date"). Your Shares can be voted at the Meeting only if you are present in person or represented by a valid proxy.

Shares Outstanding and Quorum

Holders of record of Shares at the close of business on the Record Date will be entitled to receive notice of and vote at the Meeting. At the Meeting, each Share represented will be entitled to one (1) vote on each matter properly brought before the Meeting. As of the Record Date there were 9,893,571 Shares issued and outstanding.

In order to carry on the business of the Meeting, we must have a quorum. Under our bylaws, a quorum is the majority of the outstanding Shares entitled to vote at the Meeting, represented in person or by proxy.

Proxy Card and Revocation of Proxy

In voting, please specify your choices by marking the appropriate spaces on the enclosed proxy card, signing and dating the proxy card and returning it in the accompanying envelope. If no directions are given and the signed proxy is returned, the proxy holders will vote the shares in favor of Proposals 1 through 3 and, at their discretion, on any other matters that may properly come before the Meeting. The Board knows of no other business that will be presented for consideration at the Meeting. In addition, since no stockholder proposals or nominations were received by us on a timely basis, no such matters may be brought at the Meeting.

Any stockholder giving a proxy has the power to revoke the proxy at any time before the proxy is voted. In addition to revocation in any other manner permitted by law, a proxy may be revoked by an instrument in writing executed by the stockholder or by his attorney authorized in writing, or, if the stockholder is a corporation, under its corporate seal or by an officer or attorney thereof duly authorized, and deposited at the offices of our transfer agent, Pacific Stock Transfer Inc., 500 E Warm Springs Road, Las Vegas, NV 89119, at any time up to and including the last business day preceding the day of the Meeting, or any adjournment thereof, or with the chairman of the Meeting on the day of the Meeting. Attendance at the Meeting will not in and of itself constitute revocation of a proxy.

Voting of Shares

Stockholders of record on the Record Date are entitled to one (1) vote for each Share held on all matters to be voted upon at the Meeting. You may vote in person or by completing and mailing the enclosed proxy card. All Shares entitled to vote and represented by properly executed proxies received before the polls are closed at the Meeting, and not revoked or superseded, will be voted at the Meeting in accordance with the instructions indicated on those proxies. YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT.


- 2 -

Counting of Votes

All votes will be tabulated by the inspector of election appointed for the Meeting, who will separately tabulate affirmative and negative votes and abstentions. Shares represented by proxies that reflect abstentions as to a particular proposal will be counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum. An abstention is counted as a vote against that proposal. Shares represented by proxies that reflect a broker “non-vote” will be counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum. A broker “non-vote” will be treated as not-voted for purposes of determining approval of a proposal and will not be counted as “for” or “against” that proposal. A broker “non-vote” occurs when a nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular proposal because the nominee does not have discretionary authority or does not have instructions from the beneficial owner.

Solicitation of Proxies

We will bear the entire cost of solicitation of proxies, including preparation, assembly and mailing of this proxy statement, the proxy and any additional information furnished to stockholders. Copies of solicitation materials will be furnished to banks, brokerage houses, depositories, fiduciaries and custodians holding Shares in their names that are beneficially owned by others to forward to these beneficial owners. We may reimburse persons representing beneficial owners for their costs of forwarding the solicitation material to the beneficial owners of the Shares. Original solicitation of proxies by mail may be supplemented by telephone, facsimile, electronic mail or personal solicitation by our directors, officers or other regular employees. No additional compensation will be paid to directors, officers or other regular employees for such services. To date, we have not incurred costs in connection with the solicitation of proxies from our stockholders, however, our estimate for total costs is $10,000.

INTEREST OF CERTAIN PERSONS IN OR OPPOSITION TO MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON

Except as disclosed elsewhere in this Proxy Statement, since January 1, 2009, being the commencement of our last completed financial year, none of the following persons has any substantial interest, direct or indirect, by security holdings or otherwise in any matter to be acted upon:

  1.

any director or officer of our corporation;

     
  2.

any proposed nominee for election as a director of our corporation; and

     
  3.

any associate or affiliate of any of the foregoing persons.

The shareholdings of our directors and officers are listed below in the section entitled "Principal Shareholders and Security Ownership of Management". To our knowledge, no director has advised that he intends to oppose the increase to our authorized share capital, as more particularly described herein.

PRINCIPAL SHAREHOLDERS AND SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF MANAGEMENT

As of the Record Date, we had a total of 9,893,571 Shares issued and outstanding.

The following table sets forth, as of the Record Date, certain information with respect to the beneficial ownership of Shares by each stockholder known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of our Shares and by each of our current directors and executive officers. Each person has sole voting and investment power with respect to the Shares, except as otherwise indicated. Beneficial ownership consists of a direct interest in the Shares, except as otherwise indicated.

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and generally includes voting and investment power with respect to securities.

Business Experience

The following is a brief account of the education and business experience during at least the past five years of each director, indicating the director's principal occupation during that period, and the name and principal business of the organization in which such occupation and employment were carried out.

Donald Sharpe, President and Director

Mr. Sharpe has been the President and a director of the Company since May 14, 2004.

Mr. Sharpe graduated from the University of British Columbia with a Bachelor of Science degree in Geophysics in 1981 and joined Suncor Inc. in August of that year. From 1981 to 1987, Mr. Sharpe trained and worked as an exploration geophysicist, gaining experience in all parts of the exploration and development cycle throughout the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin.

In 1987, Mr. Sharpe moved into the then new field of gas marketing where he was responsible for the direct marketing of Suncor's gas to industrial, commercial and utility customers in the United States and Eastern Canada. The position required negotiating skills, an understanding of the North American pipeline infrastructure, and an appreciation for the dynamics of natural gas supply and demand. Mr. Sharpe continued his formal education and received a Certificate in Business Management from the University of Calgary in 1989.

In 1990, Mr. Sharpe returned to exploration at Suncor in the position of group leader for British Columbia exploration. In this position, Mr. Sharpe managed a team of professionals in land, geology and geophysics and was responsible for the planning, budgeting and execution of the team's exploration program. Mr. Sharpe continued his education and graduated from the Banff School of Advanced Management in 1991.

Information About the Board of Directors

Board and Committee Meetings

Our Board of Directors held no formal meetings during the year ended December 31, 2009. All proceedings of the board of directors were conducted by resolutions consented to in writing by all the directors and filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the directors. Such resolutions consented to in writing by the directors entitled to vote on that resolution at a meeting of the directors are, according to the Nevada General Corporate Law and our Bylaws, as valid and effective as if they had been passed at a meeting of the directors duly called and held.

For the year ended December 31, 2009 our only standing committee of the board of directors was our audit committee.

Audit Committee

Currently our audit committee consists of our entire board of directors. Effective January 1, 2008 Ralph Stensaker was appointed chair of the audit committee. We currently do not have nominating, compensation committees or committees performing similar functions. There has not been any defined policy or procedure requirements for stockholders to submit recommendations or nomination for directors.

During fiscal 2009 aside from quarterly review teleconferences, there were no meetings held by this committee. The business of the audit committee was conducted though these teleconferences and by resolutions consented to in writing by all the members and filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the audit committee.

Nominating Committee

We do not have a nominating committee, rather the entire Board of Directors performs the functions of a nominating Committee and oversees the process by which individuals may be nominated to our Board of Directors.

As of December 31, 2009, we did not effect any material changes to the procedures by which our stockholders may recommend nominees to our Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors does not have a policy with regards to the consideration of any director candidates recommended by our stockholders. Our Board of Directors has determined that it is in the best position to evaluate the Company's requirements as well as the qualifications of each candidate when the Board of Directors considers a particular nominee. If stockholders wish to recommend candidates directly to our Board of Directors, they may do so by sending communications to the president of the Company at the address on the cover of this proxy statement.

Compensation Committee

We do not have a compensation committee.

Requests can be sent to: Eden Energy Corp., Suite 1660 – 1055 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, British Columbia Canada V6E 2E9.

Audit Committee Financial Expert

Our Board of Directors has determined that it does have a director who qualifies as an "audit committee financial expert" as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K.

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our executive officers and directors and persons who own more than 10% of our common stock to file with the SEC initial statements of beneficial ownership, reports of changes in ownership and annual reports concerning their ownership of our common stock and other equity securities, on Forms 3, 4 and 5 respectively. Executive officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders are required by the SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports that they file.

Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms received by us, or written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe that during fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, all filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater than 10% percent beneficial owners were complied with.

Director Independence

Currently, our Board of Directors consists of four (4) directors, consisting of Donald Sharpe, Drew Bonnell, John Martin and Ralph Stensaker. The Company has determined that John Martin and Ralph Stensaker qualify as "independent" as the term is used in Item 7(d)(3)(iv)(B) of Schedule 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

PROPOSAL NO. 2 - RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR

Stockholder ratification of the appointment of Dale Matheson Carr-Hilton Labonte LLP, Chartered Accountants, as our independent auditor is not required by our bylaws or otherwise. However, our board of directors is submitting the selection of Dale Matheson Carr-Hilton Labonte LLP, Chartered Accountants to the stockholders for ratification as a matter of corporate practice. If the stockholders fail to ratify the selection, our Board of Directors will reconsider whether or not to retain that firm. Even if the selection is ratified, our Board of Directors in its discretion may direct the appointment of a different independent accounting firm at any time during the year if our board of directors determines that such a change would be in the best interests of our company and its stockholders.

Our board of directors has considered and determined that the services provided by Dale Matheson Carr-Hilton Labonte LLP, Chartered Accountants are compatible with maintaining the principal accountant's independence.

Representatives of Dale Matheson Carr-Hilton Labonte LLP, Chartered Accountants are not expected to be present at the Meeting.

Our board of directors unanimously recommends a vote "FOR" the ratification of the appointment of Dale Matheson Carr-Hilton Labonte LLP, Chartered Accountants as our independent auditors for the ensuing fiscal year.

The following table sets forth the fees billed to the company for professional services rendered by the company's independent registered public accounting firm, for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008:


Services
2009
$
2008
$
Audit fees 53,000 66,500
Tax fees Nil 6,500
All other fees Nil Nil
Total fees 53,000 73,000

Audit Fees. Consist of fees billed for professional services rendered for the audits of our financial statements, reviews of our interim consolidated financial statements included in quarterly reports, services performed in connection with filings with the SEC and related comfort letters and other services that are normally provided in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements.

Tax Fees. Consist of fees billed for professional services for tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning. These services include assistance regarding federal, state and local tax compliance and consultation in connection with various transactions and acquisitions.

We do not use Dale Matheson Carr-Hilton Labonte LLP, Chartered Accountants, for financial information system design and implementation. These services, which include designing or implementing a system that aggregates source data underlying the financial statements or generates information that is significant to our financial statements, are provided internally or by other service providers. We do not engage Dale Matheson Carr-Hilton Labonte LLP, Chartered Accountants, to provide compliance outsourcing services.


- 13 -

Effective May 6, 2003, the SEC adopted rules that require that before Dale Matheson Carr-Hilton Labonte LLP, Chartered Accountants, is engaged by us to render any auditing or permitted non-audit related service, the engagement be:

  • approved by our audit committee (the functions of which are performed by our entire board of directors); or

  • entered into pursuant to pre-approval policies and procedures established by the board of directors, provided the policies and procedures are detailed as to the particular service, the board of directors is informed of each service, and such policies and procedures do not include delegation of the board of directors' responsibilities to management.

Our entire Board of Directors pre-approves all services provided by our independent auditors. All of the above services and fees were reviewed and approved by our directors either before or after the respective services were rendered.

Our Board of Directors has considered the nature and amount of fees billed by Dale Matheson Carr-Hilton Labonte LLP, Chartered Accountants and believe that the provision of services for activities unrelated to the audit is compatible with maintaining the independence of Dale Matheson Carr-Hilton Labonte LLP, Chartered Accountants.

PROPOSAL NO. 3 - AMENDMENT TO OUR COMPANY'S ARTICLES

Our Articles of Incorporation (the "Articles") currently authorize the issuance of 20,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value. On May 20, 2010, our Board of Directors approved, subject to receiving the approval of a majority of the stockholders of our Shares, an amendment to our Articles to increase our authorized share capital to 200,000,000 shares, par value $0.001 per share.

The general purpose and effect of the amendment to our Articles is to increase our authorized share capital, which will enhance the Company's ability to finance the development and operation of our business.

Our Board of Directors approved the amendment to the Articles to increase our authorized share capital so that such additional authorized Shares will be available for issuance for general corporate purposes, including financing activities, without the requirement of further action by our stockholders. Potential uses of the additional authorized Shares may include public or private offerings, conversions of convertible securities, issuance of options pursuant to employee benefit plans, acquisition transactions and other general corporate purposes. Increasing the authorized number of Shares will provide the Company with greater flexibility, allowing it to issue such Shares, in most cases, without the expense of delay of seeking stockholder approval. The Company is continually investigating additional sources of financing which our Board of Directors believes will be in our best interests and in the best interests of our stockholders. We do not currently have any agreements for any transaction that would require the issuance of additional Shares. The Shares carry no pre-emptive rights to purchase additional Shares. The adoption of the amendment to our Articles of Incorporation will not of itself cause any changes in our capital accounts.

The amendment to the Articles to increase our authorized share capital will not have any immediate effect on the rights of existing stockholders. However, our Board of Directors will have the authority to issue additional Shares without requiring prior stockholder approval of such issuances, except as may be required by applicable law or exchange regulations. To the extent that additional Shares are issued in the future, they will decrease the existing stockholders' percentage equity ownership and, depending upon the price at which they are issued, could be dilutive to existing stockholders.

The increase in the authorized number of Shares and the subsequent issuance of such Shares could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company without further action by the stockholders. Shares could be issued (within limits imposed by applicable law) in one or more transactions. Any such additional issuance could have the effect of diluting the earnings per Share and book value per Share of our issued and outstanding Shares, and such additional Shares could be used to dilute the stock ownership or voting rights of a person seeking to obtain control of the Company.


- 14 -

We do not have any provisions in our Articles, by laws, or employment or credit agreements to which we are party that have anti-takeover consequences. We do not currently have any plans to adopt anti-takeover provisions or enter into any arrangements or understandings that would have anti-takeover consequences. In certain circumstances, our management may issue additional Shares to resist a third party takeover transaction, even if done at an above market premium and favoured by a majority of independent shareholders.

Dissenters' Rights of Appraisal

Under Nevada law, our stockholders are not entitled to appraisal rights with respect to the proposed amendment of our Articles and we will not independently provide our stockholders with any such right.

Voting Procedure

The proposed amendment of our Articles will require the approval of stockholders holding at least a majority of Shares entitled to be voted at the Meeting.

"HOUSEHOLDING" OF PROXY MATERIAL

The SEC permits companies and intermediaries (e.g. brokers) to satisfy the delivery requirements for proxy statements with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single proxy statement addressed to those stockholders. This process, commonly referred to as "householding", potentially means extra conveniences for stockholders and cost savings for companies.

A number of brokers with accountholders who are stockholders of our Company will be "householding" our proxy materials. As indicated in the notice previously provided by these brokers to stockholders, a single proxy statement will be delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from an affected stockholder. Once you have received notice from your broker that they will be "householding" communications to your address, "householding" will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If at any time, you no longer wish to participate in "householding" and would prefer to receive a separate proxy statement, please notify your broker.

Stockholders who currently receive multiple copies of the proxy statement at their address and would like to request "householding" of their communications should contact their broker.

OTHER BUSINESS

The Board knows of no other business that will be presented for consideration at the Meeting. If other matters are properly brought before the Meeting; however, it is the intention of the persons named in the accompanying proxy to vote the shares represented thereby on such matters in accordance with their best judgment.

If there are insufficient votes to approve any of the proposals contained herein, the Board may adjourn the Meeting to a later date and solicit additional proxies. If a vote is required to approve such adjournment, the proxies will be voted in favor of such adjournment.

By Order of the Board of Directors,

/s/ Donald Sharpe
