PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

The following summary highlights selected information contained in this prospectus. This summary does not contain all the information you should consider before investing in the securities. Before making an investment decision, you should read the entire prospectus carefully, including the “risk factors” section, the financial statements and the secured convertible notes to the financial statements.

TRIANGLE PETROLEUM CORPORATION

We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on December 11, 2003 under the name Peloton Resources Inc. Our principal business plan was to acquire, explore and develop mineral properties and to ultimately seek earnings by exploiting the mineral claims. We subsequently abandoned our mineral property as a result of poor exploration results, and decided to change our principal business to that of acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas resource properties. On May 10, 2005, we changed our name to Triangle Petroleum Corporation.

We have been in the exploration stage since our formation in December 2003 and have realized minimal revenue from our planned operations. We are an exploration company focused on the Fayetteville Shale project in Arkansas, the Barnett Shale project in Texas, emerging shale gas opportunities on the East Coast of Canada, and resource plays in select areas of the western United States. An experienced team comprising technical and business skills has been formed to optimize our opportunities through our operating subsidiaries, Triangle USA Petroleum Corporation in the United States and Elmworth Energy Corporation in Canada. Planned principal activities have not yet begun. Our ability to emerge from the exploration stage with respect to any planned principal business activity is dependent upon our successful efforts to raise additional equity financing and generate significant revenue. We have incurred a net loss of $26,630,973 since our inception through January 31, 2007. There is no guarantee that the proceeds raised by us will be sufficient to complete any of the above objectives. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern.

Our principal offices are located at Suite 1250, 521-3 Ave. SW, Calgary, Alberta, T2P 3T3, Canada, and our telephone number is (403) 262-4471. We are a Nevada corporation.

DECEMBER 8, 2005 SECURED CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURE FINANCING

To obtain funding for our ongoing operations, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Cornell Capital Partners L.P., an accredited investor, on December 8, 2005 for the sale of $15,000,000 in secured convertible debentures. They provided us with an aggregate of $15,000,000 as follows:

·
$5,000,000 was disbursed on December 8, 2005;

·
$5,000,000 was disbursed on January 17, 2006; and

·
$5,000,000 was disbursed on June 1, 2006.

As of June 22, 2007, $4,000,000 of the debenture had been converted into 2,091,764 shares of common stock and $11,000,000 remained outstanding.

The secured convertible debentures bear interest at 5%, mature three years from the date of issuance, and are convertible into our common stock, at the selling stockholders' option, at the lower of (i) $5.00 or (ii) 90% of the average of the three lowest daily volume weighted average prices of our common stock, as quoted by Bloomberg, LP, of the 10 trading days immediately preceding the date of conversion. Accordingly, there is in fact no limit on the number of shares into which the secured convertible debentures may be converted. As of June 22, 2007, the average of the three lowest intraday trading prices for our common stock during the preceding 10 trading days as quoted by Bloomberg, LP was $2.00 and, therefore, the conversion price for the secured convertible notes was $1.80. Based on this conversion price, the $11,000,000 in secured convertible debentures remaining outstanding, excluding interest, were convertible into 6,111,112 shares of our common stock. The sale of such a large number of shares of common stock could significantly deflate the market price of our common stock, which would have the further effect of requiring us to issue additional shares upon conversion of the secured convertible debentures. Depending on our stock price, the conversion of the secured convertible debentures could lead to the sale of potentially controlling amounts of shares of common stock.

The investor has contractually agreed to restrict its ability to convert the debentures and receive shares of our common stock such that the number of shares of common stock held by it and its affiliates after such conversion does not exceed 4.9% of the then issued and outstanding shares of common stock. In addition, the investor is restricted from converting more than $1,500,000 in principle amount of the debenture in any thirty day period, with no more than $1,000,000 of such amount at the variable market conversion price.

We have the right, at our option, with three business days advance written notice, to redeem a portion or all amounts outstanding under the secured convertible debentures prior to the maturity date provided that the closing bid price of our common stock, is less than $5.00 at the time of the redemption. In the event of a redemption, we are obligated to pay an amount equal to the principal amount being redeemed plus a 20% redemption premium, and accrued interest.
 
In connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement dated December 8, 2005, we granted the investor registration rights. We were obligated to use our best efforts to cause the registration statement to be declared effective no later than June 30, 2006 and to insure that the registration statement remains in effect until all of the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the secured convertible debentures have been sold. In the event of a default of our obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, including if the registration statement is not declared effective by June 30, 2006, we are required pay to Cornell, as liquidated damages, for each month that the registration statement has not been filed or declared effective, as the case may be, either a cash amount or shares of our common stock equal to 2% of the liquidated value of the secured convertible debentures. The registration statement was declared effective on May 25, 2006.

DECEMBER 28, 2005 CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURE AND WARRANTS FINANCING

To obtain funding for our ongoing operations, we entered into Securities Purchase Agreements with two accredited investors on December 28, 2005 for the sale of (i) $10,000,000 in convertible debentures and (ii) warrants to purchase 1,250,000 shares of our common stock. The two accredited investors, Bank Sal. Oppenheim Jr. & Cie., (Schweiz) AG and Centrum Bank each subscribed for 50% of the total offering.

The investors provided us with an aggregate of $10,000,000 as follows:

·
$5,000,000 was disbursed on December 28, 2005; and

·
$5,000,000 was disbursed on January 23, 2006.

3

 
Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreements, we issued to each investor 625,000 warrants to purchase shares of common stock on December 28, 2005 and January 23, 2006, which warrants have expired. As of June 22, 2007, $10,000,000 of the issued debentures were outstanding and none had been converted.

The convertible debentures bear interest at 7.5%, mature three years from the date of issuance, and are convertible into our common stock, at the selling stockholders' option, at a rate of $4.00 per share. The investors have contractually agreed to restrict their ability to convert its debentures or exercise its warrants and receive shares of our common stock such that the number of shares of common stock held by it and its affiliates after such conversion or exercise does not exceed 4.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of common stock. 

In connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement dated December 28, 2005, we granted the investors registration rights. Pursuant to the registration rights agreement, if we did not have the registration statement declared effective on or before May 27, 2006, we were obligated to pay liquidated damages in the amount of 1.0% for each 30-day period or pro rata for any portion thereof following the date by which such registration statement should have been filed for which no registration statement is filed or should have been declared effective. The registration statement was declared effective on May 25, 2006.

RISK FACTORS

This investment has a high degree of risk. Before you invest you should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below and the other information in this prospectus. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, operating results and financial condition could be harmed and the value of our stock could go down. This means you could lose all or a part of your investment.

Risks Relating to Our Business:

We Have a History Of Losses Which May Continue, Which May Negatively Impact Our Ability to Achieve Our Business Objectives.

We incurred net losses of $18,338,534 and $8,244,758 for the years ended January 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. For the three months ended April 30, 2007, we incurred a net loss of $3,999,585. We cannot assure you that we can achieve or sustain profitability on a quarterly or annual basis in the future. Our operations are subject to the risks and competition inherent in the establishment of a business enterprise. There can be no assurance that future operations will be profitable. Revenues and profits, if any, will depend upon various factors, including whether we will be able to continue expansion of our revenue. We may not achieve our business objectives and the failure to achieve such goals would have an adverse impact on us.

Our Independent Auditors Have Expressed Substantial Doubt About Our Ability to Continue As a Going Concern, Which May Hinder Our Ability to Obtain Future Financing.

In their report dated April 2, 2007, our independent auditors stated that our financial statements for the year ended January 31, 2007 were prepared assuming that we would continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is an issue raised as a result of recurring losses from operations. We continue to experience net operating losses. Our ability to continue as a going concern is subject to our ability to generate a profit and/or obtain necessary funding from outside sources, including obtaining additional funding from the sale of our securities, increasing sales or obtaining loans and grants from various financial institutions where possible. Our continued net operating losses increase the difficulty in meeting such goals and there can be no assurances that such methods will prove successful.
 
We Have a Limited Operating History and if We are not Successful in Continuing to Grow Our Business, Then We may have to Scale Back or Even Cease Our Ongoing Business Operations.

We have received a limited amount of revenues from operations and have limited assets. We have yet to generate positive earnings and there can be no assurance that we will ever operate profitably. Our company has a limited operating history and must be considered in the exploration stage. Our success is significantly dependent on a successful acquisition, drilling, completion and production program. Our operations will be subject to all the risks inherent in the establishment of a developing enterprise and the uncertainties arising from the absence of a significant operating history. We may be unable to locate recoverable reserves or operate on a profitable basis. We are in the development stage and potential investors should be aware of the difficulties normally encountered by enterprises in the exploration stage. If our business plan is not successful, and we are not able to operate profitably, investors may lose some or all of their investment in our company.
 
Because We Are Small and Do Not Have Much Capital, We May Have to Limit our Exploration Activity Which May Result in a Loss of Your Investment. 

Because we are small and do not have much capital, we must limit our exploration activity. As such we may not be able to complete an exploration program that is as thorough as we would like. In that event, existing reserves may go undiscovered. Without finding reserves, we cannot generate revenues and you will lose your investment.

If We Are Unable to Retain the Services of Messrs. Gustafson and Hietala or If We Are Unable to Successfully Recruit Qualified Managerial and Field Personnel Having Experience in Oil and Gas Exploration, We May Not Be Able to Continue Our Operations.

Our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of Mr. Mark Gustafson, our Chief Executive Officer, President, and a director and Mr. Ron Hietala, a director and President of Elmworth Energy Corporation, our wholly-owned subsidiary. Loss of the services of Messrs. Gustafson or Hietala could have a material adverse effect on our growth, revenues, and prospective business. We have obtained key-man insurance on the life of Mr. Hietala and do not intend to further pursue key man insurance on the life of Mr. Gustafson at this time. In addition, in order to successfully implement and manage our business plan, we will be dependent upon, among other things, successfully recruiting qualified managerial and field personnel having experience in the oil and gas exploration business. Competition for qualified individuals is intense. There can be no assurance that we will be able to find, attract and retain existing employees or that we will be able to find, attract and retain qualified personnel on acceptable terms.

5

 
As Our Properties are in the Exploration Stage, There Can be no Assurance That We Will Establish Commercial Discoveries on Our Properties.

Exploration for economic reserves of oil and gas is subject to a number of risk factors. Few properties that are explored are ultimately developed into producing oil and/or gas wells. Our properties are in the exploration stage only and are without proven reserves of oil and gas. We may not establish commercial discoveries on any of our properties.

The Potential Profitability of Oil and Gas Ventures Depends Upon Factors Beyond the Control of Our Company.

The potential profitability of oil and gas properties is dependent upon many factors beyond our control. For instance, world prices and markets for oil and gas are unpredictable, highly volatile, potentially subject to governmental fixing, pegging, controls, or any combination of these and other factors, and respond to changes in domestic, international, political, social, and economic environments. Additionally, due to worldwide economic uncertainty, the availability and cost of funds for production and other expenses have become increasingly difficult, if not impossible, to project. These changes and events may materially affect our financial performance.

Adverse weather conditions can also hinder drilling operations. A productive well may become uneconomic in the event water or other deleterious substances are encountered which impair or prevent the production of oil and/or gas from the well. In addition, production from any well may be unmarketable if it is impregnated with water or other deleterious substances. The marketability of oil and gas which may be acquired or discovered will be affected by numerous factors beyond our control. These factors include the proximity and capacity of oil and gas pipelines and processing equipment, market fluctuations of prices, taxes, royalties, land tenure, allowable production and environmental protection. These factors cannot be accurately predicted and the combination of these factors may result in our company not receiving an adequate return on invested capital.
 
Competition In The Oil And Gas Industry Is Highly Competitive And There Is No Assurance That We Will Be Successful In Acquiring The Leases.

The oil and gas industry is intensely competitive. We compete with numerous individuals and companies, including many major oil and gas companies, which have substantially greater technical, financial and operational resources and staffs. Accordingly, there is a high degree of competition for desirable oil and gas leases, suitable properties for drilling operations and necessary drilling equipment, as well as for access to funds. We cannot predict if the necessary funds can be raised or that any projected work will be completed.

6

 
A Director Competes Against Us In The Oil And Gas Industry.

One of our directors, John Carlson, is the President and CEO of Torrent Energy Corporation, a publicly-held, natural gas exploration company. As a result, Mr. Carlson may become aware of potential opportunities that could be beneficial to us and Torrent Energy. We do not anticipate that Mr. Carlson would present such opportunities to us for consideration.

The Marketability of Natural Resources Will be Affected by Numerous Factors Beyond Our Control Which May Result in Us not Receiving an Adequate Return on Invested Capital to be Profitable or Viable.

The marketability of natural resources which may be acquired or discovered by us will be affected by numerous factors beyond our control. These factors include market fluctuations in oil and gas pricing and demand, the proximity and capacity of natural resource markets and processing equipment, governmental regulations, land tenure, land use, regulation concerning the importing and exporting of oil and gas and environmental protection regulations. The exact effect of these factors cannot be accurately predicted, but the combination of these factors may result in us not receiving an adequate return on invested capital to be profitable or viable.

Oil and Gas Operations are Subject to Comprehensive Regulation Which May Cause Substantial Delays or Require Capital Outlays in Excess of Those Anticipated Causing an Adverse Effect on Our Company.

Oil and gas operations are subject to federal, state, and local laws relating to the protection of the environment, including laws regulating removal of natural resources from the ground and the discharge of materials into the environment. Oil and gas operations are also subject to federal, state, and local laws and regulations which seek to maintain health and safety standards by regulating the design and use of drilling methods and equipment. Various permits from government bodies are required for drilling operations to be conducted; no assurance can be given that such permits will be received. Environmental standards imposed by federal, provincial, or local authorities may be changed and any such changes may have material adverse effects on our activities. Moreover, compliance with such laws may cause substantial delays or require capital outlays in excess of those anticipated, thus causing an adverse effect on us. Additionally, we may be subject to liability for pollution or other environmental damages which it may elect not to insure against due to prohibitive premium costs and other reasons. To date we have not been required to spend any material amount on compliance with environmental regulations. However, we may be required to do so in future and this may affect our ability to expand or maintain our operations.

Exploration Activities are Subject to Certain Environmental Regulations Which May Prevent or Delay the Commencement or Continuance of Our Operations.
 
In general, our exploration activities are subject to certain federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to environmental quality and pollution control. Such laws and regulations increase the costs of these activities and may prevent or delay the commencement or continuance of a given operation. Compliance with these laws and regulations has not had a material effect on our operations or financial condition to date. Specifically, we are subject to legislation regarding emissions into the environment, water discharges and storage and disposition of hazardous wastes. In addition, legislation has been enacted which requires well and facility sites to be abandoned and reclaimed to the satisfaction of state authorities. However, such laws and regulations are frequently changed and we are unable to predict the ultimate cost of compliance. Generally, environmental requirements do not appear to affect us any differently or to any greater or lesser extent than other companies in the industry.

We believe that our operations comply, in all material respects, with all applicable environmental regulations. Our operating partners maintain insurance coverage customary to the industry; however, we are not fully insured against all possible environmental risks.

Exploratory Drilling Involves Many Risks and We May Become Liable for Pollution or Other Liabilities Which May Have an Adverse Effect on Our Financial Position.
 
Drilling operations generally involve a high degree of risk. Hazards such as unusual or unexpected geological formations, power outages, labor disruptions, blow-outs, sour gas leakage, fire, inability to obtain suitable or adequate machinery, equipment or labor, and other risks are involved. We may become subject to liability for pollution or hazards against which it cannot adequately insure or which it may elect not to insure. Incurring any such liability may have a material adverse effect on our financial position and operations.

Any Change to Government Regulation/Administrative Practices May Have a Negative Impact on Our Ability to Operate and Our Profitability.

The laws, regulations, policies or current administrative practices of any government body, organization or regulatory agency in the United States or any other jurisdiction, may be changed, applied or interpreted in a manner which will fundamentally alter the ability of our company to carry on our business.

The actions, policies or regulations, or changes thereto, of any government body or regulatory agency, or other special interest groups, may have a detrimental effect on us. Any or all of these situations may have a negative impact on our ability to operate and/or our profitably.

Risks Relating to Our Outstanding Financing Arrangements:

There Are a Large Number of Shares Underlying Our Convertible Debentures and Warrants That May be Available for Future Sale and the Sale of These Shares May Depress the Market Price of Our Common Stock.

As of June 22, 2007, we had 36,786,294 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, secured convertible debentures issued on December 8, 2005, January 17, 2006 and June 1, 2006 outstanding that may be converted into 6,111,112 shares of common stock based on current market prices, convertible debentures issued on December 28, 2005 and January 23, 2006 outstanding that may be converted into 2,500,000 shares of common stock, and outstanding warrants to purchase 6,000,000 shares of common stock. All of the shares, including all of the shares issuable upon conversion of the convertible debentures and upon exercise of our warrants, may be sold without restriction. The sale of these shares may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

The Continuously Adjustable Conversion Price Feature of Our Secured Convertible Debentures Could Require Us to Issue a Substantially Greater Number of Shares, Which Will Cause Dilution to Our Existing Stockholders. 

Our obligation to issue shares upon conversion of our secured convertible debentures issued to Cornell Capital Partners on December 8, 2005, January 17, 2006 and June 1, 2006 is essentially limitless. The following is an example of the amount of shares of our common stock that are issuable, upon conversion of our $11,500,000 remaining of secured convertible debentures (excluding accrued interest), based on market prices 25%, 50% and 75% below the market price, as of June 21, 2007 of $2.10.

As illustrated, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of our secured convertible debentures will increase if the market price of our stock declines, which will cause dilution to our existing stockholders.

The Continuously Adjustable Conversion Price Feature of our Secured Convertible Debentures May Encourage Investors to Make Short Sales in Our Common Stock, Which Could Have a Depressive Effect on the Price of Our Common Stock.

The secured convertible debentures are convertible into shares of our common stock at a 10% discount to the trading price of the common stock prior to the conversion. The downward pressure on the price of the common stock as the selling stockholder converts and sells material amounts of common stock could encourage short sales by investors. Short sales by investors could place further downward pressure on the price of the common stock. In addition, not only the sale of shares issued upon conversion of secured convertible debentures, but also the mere perception that these sales could occur, may adversely affect the market price of the common stock.

The Issuance of Shares Upon Conversion of the Secured Convertible Debentures, Convertible Debentures and Exercise of Outstanding Warrants May Cause Immediate and Substantial Dilution to Our Existing Stockholders.

The issuance of shares upon conversion of the secured convertible debentures and convertible debentures and exercise of warrants may result in substantial dilution to the interests of other stockholders since the selling stockholders may ultimately convert and sell the full amount issuable on conversion. Although Cornell Capital Partners LP may not convert its secured convertible notes if such conversion would cause it to own more than 4.99% of our outstanding common stock and Bank Sal. Oppenheim Jr. & Cie., (Schweiz) AG and Centrum Bank may not convert their convertible debentures if such conversion would cause them to own more than 4.9% of our outstanding common stock, this restriction does not prevent Cornell Capital Partners LP, Bank Sal. Oppenheim Jr. & Cie., (Schweiz) AG or Centrum Bank from converting and/or exercising some of their holdings and then converting the rest of their holdings. In this way, Cornell Capital Partners LP, Bank Sal. Oppenheim Jr. & Cie., (Schweiz) AG and Centrum Bank could sell more than their limit while never holding more than this limit. There is no upper limit on the number of shares that may be issued upon conversion of the secured convertible debentures issued to Cornell Capital Partners LP which will have the effect of further diluting the proportionate equity interest and voting power of holders of our common stock, including investors in this offering.
 
If We Are Required for any Reason to Repay Our Outstanding Convertible Debentures, We Would Be Required to Deplete Our Working Capital, If Available, Or Raise Additional Funds. Our Failure to Repay the Convertible Debentures, If Required, Could Result in Legal Action Against Us, Which Could Require the Sale of Substantial Assets.

In December 2005, we entered into three securities purchase agreements for the sale of an aggregate of $25,000,000 principal amount of convertible debentures, secured and unsecured. The $15,000,000 in secured convertible debentures, of which $11,000,000 remained outstanding as of June 22, 2007, are due and payable, with 5% interest, three years from the date of issuance, unless sooner converted into shares of our common stock. Additionally, the $10,000,000 in convertible debentures, which all remained outstanding as of June 1, 2007, are due and payable, with 7.5% interest, three years from the date of issuance, unless sooner converted into shares of our common stock. In addition, any event of default such as our failure to repay the principal or interest when due, our failure to issue shares of common stock upon conversion by the holder, our failure to timely file a registration statement or have such registration statement declared effective, breach of any covenant, representation or warranty in the Securities Purchase Agreements or related convertible debentures, the assignment or appointment of a receiver to control a substantial part of our property or business, the filing of a money judgment, writ or similar process against our company in excess of $50,000, the commencement of a bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or liquidation proceeding against our company and the delisting of our common stock could require the early repayment of the convertible debentures, secured and unsecured, including default interest rate on the outstanding principal balance of the debentures if the default is not cured with the specified grace period. We anticipate that the full amount of the convertible debentures, secured and unsecured, will be converted into shares of our common stock, in accordance with the terms of the convertible debentures. If we were required to repay the convertible debentures, secured and unsecured, we would be required to use our limited working capital and raise additional funds. If we were unable to repay the debentures when required, the debenture holders could commence legal action against us and foreclose on all of our assets to recover the amounts due. Any such action would require us to curtail or cease operations.

If an Event of Default Occurs under the Securities Purchase Agreement dated December 8, 2005, Secured Convertible Debentures or Security Agreements, the Investors Could Take Possession of all Our Goods, Inventory, Contractual Rights and General Intangibles, Receivables, Documents, Instruments, Chattel Paper, and Intellectual Property.

In connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement dated December 8, 2005, we and our subsidiaries executed Security Agreements in favor of the investors granting them a first priority security interest in all of our goods, inventory, contractual rights and general intangibles, receivables, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and intellectual property. The Security Agreements state that if an event of default occurs under the Securities Purchase Agreement, Secured Convertible Debentures or Security Agreements, the Investors have the right to take possession of the collateral, to operate our business using the collateral, and have the right to assign, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of and deliver all or any part of the collateral, at public or private sale or otherwise to satisfy our obligations under these agreements.

Risks Relating to Our Common Stock:

If We Fail to Remain Current in Our Reporting Requirements, We Could be Removed From the OTC Bulletin Board Which Would Limit the Ability of Broker-Dealers to Sell Our Securities and the Ability of Stockholders to Sell Their Securities in the Secondary Market.

Companies trading on the OTC Bulletin Board, such as us, must be reporting issuers under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and must be current in their reports under Section 13, in order to maintain price quotation privileges on the OTC Bulletin Board. If we fail to remain current on our reporting requirements, we could be removed from the OTC Bulletin Board. As a result, the market liquidity for our securities could be severely adversely affected by limiting the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and the ability of stockholders to sell their securities in the secondary market.

Our Common Stock is Subject to the "Penny Stock" Rules of the SEC and the Trading Market in Our Securities is Limited, Which Makes Transactions in Our Stock Cumbersome and May Reduce the Value of an Investment in Our Stock.

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which establishes the definition of a "penny stock," for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require:

·
that a broker or dealer approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks; and
     
 
·
the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.

In order to approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:

·
obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person; and
     
 
·
make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.

The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the Commission relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:

·
sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and
     
·
that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.

Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the "penny stock" rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.

Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.

Holders

As of June 22, 2007, we had approximately 23 holders of our common stock. The number of record holders was determined from the records of our transfer agent and does not include beneficial owners of common stock whose shares are held in the names of various security brokers, dealers, and registered clearing agencies. The transfer agent of our common stock is Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, 17 Battery Place, New York, New York 10004.

On May 9, 2005, we declared a stock dividend of six shares of common stock for each one share of common stock outstanding. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends to stockholders in the foreseeable future. Any future determination to pay cash dividends will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will be dependent upon our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, and such other factors as the Board of Directors deem relevant.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND PLAN OF OPERATIONS

Some of the information in this prospectus contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. You can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate” and “continue,” or similar words. You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they:

 
·
discuss our future expectations;
     
 
·
contain projections of our future results of operations or of our financial condition; and
     
·
state other “forward-looking” information.

We believe it is important to communicate our expectations. However, there may be events in the future that we are not able to accurately predict or over which we have no control. Our actual results and the timing of certain events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors,” “Business” and elsewhere in this prospectus. See “Risk Factors.”


Prior to May 2005, we were known as Peloton Resources Inc., a mining exploration company. Peloton was actively searching for ore bodies containing gold in British Columbia. A consultant was hired to assess the economic viability of exploring for and developing gold reserves on Peloton’s properties. Based upon his report, Peloton decided to abandon all mining activities and to commence shifting towards an oil and gas exploration company. In connection with the shift in operational focus, we changed our name to Triangle Petroleum Corporation.

The changeover from a mining to an oil and gas exploration company has taken place over the past twenty-four months, during one of the strongest markets for oil and natural gas. The average monthly price for West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil and natural gas (Henry Hub Nymex), currently, as compared to the prior year, is as follows:

Although these strong commodity prices have resulted in extremely competitive conditions for the supply of products and services for exploration companies, our outlook remains positive. Despite these strong fundamentals, it should be noted that significant short term fluctuations in North American natural gas prices have occurred based upon seasonal weather patterns and gas storage levels.

Plan of Operations

Since our inception, Triangle Petroleum has had the opportunity to screen various projects in a variety of geographic locations with numerous potential joint venture partners. The project areas outlined below were carefully selected based on our belief in balancing overall project risk against potential project returns and the time horizons required to achieve such returns. These five project areas represent unique exploration opportunities. In conjunction with our joint venture partners, we intend to execute our operating plan in order to realize the full value of the initial land base that has been established.

Arkoma Basin Arkansas - Fayetteville Shale Program

We have committed to an initial $16 million joint venture in the Fayetteville Shale of the Arkoma Basin with Kerogen Resources. We believe that this area has the ability to deliver similar results to the trend setting Barnett Shale of the Fort Worth Basin. We and Kerogen have an equal 50% working interest position in approximately 20,000 gross acres leased to date in Conway and Faulkner Counties. A measured pace of additional leasing is planned to complement the 2007 drilling program. Based upon encouraging initial drilling results from major oil and gas companies just north of our land position, we believe that the Fayetteville Shale program has the potential to be a major growth initiative. As at April 30, 2007, we had advanced approximately $6.8 million to fund our share of land costs and we have incurred an additional $2.6 million to fund our share of costs related to the first vertical well, which reached its targeted depth in April 2007. The remaining capital commitment of $6.8 million is expected to be incurred within the next 12 to 18 months and should be used to fund $2.8 million of seismic expenditures and $4.0 million of drilling costs.

The first vertical test well of the Fayetteville joint venture reached its targeted depth of 8,300 feet on April 4, 2007. Drill cuttings and other samples were taken from the well and sent in for further lab work and analysis. Concurrent with the first drilling operation, a new multi-component 3-D seismic survey had also commenced. The seismic survey was shot over approximately half of the target area and sent for processing in April 2007. Depending on the results of the seismic program and th e vertical test well, we may consider initiating a horizontal drilling program.

Greater Fort Worth Basin Texas - Barnett Shale Program

We have acquired a 30% working interest position in a five county joint venture program with Kerogen. The five counties are located in the South Fort Worth Basin and include Johnson, Hood, Hill, Sommerville and Bosque. To date, approximately 13,000 gross acres have been leased. One new ten square mile 3-D seismic survey has been shot over an acreage tract in Hill County. As of April 30, 2007, we have expended approximately $2.5 million in prospect fees, land costs and, geological and geophysical expenditures.

We have participated in four lower working interest (approximately 6%) horizontal wells (one in Johnson County and three in Hill County). The four wells which are all currently producing had initial gross production rates of between 400 mcf/day (million cubic feet per day) and 2,800 mcf/day. These initial production rates should stabilize at lower levels over time. The operator of these wells has commenced voluntary bankruptcy proceedings. As a result, we have not received our monthly production revenue since January 2007, however the amounts owing to us have been set aside by the bankruptcy trustee in a separate bank account. In addition, we continue to receive monthly statements detailing our share of production revenue and related production royalties and operating expenses. We have spent approximately $1.1 million on drilling and completing these four wells. Our Barnett Shale plans include further drilling over the next twelve months which will be a combination of traditional Barnett programs and new opportunities.

In November 2006, we participated in a new joint venture with an experienced Texas-based operator. To date, we have participated in four Barnett Shale gas wells with working interests ranging between 11% and 15%. At January 31, 2007, the costs incurred to drill and complete these wells totaled approximately $1.8 million. We have commenced production from two of the first four horizontal wells drilled in the fourth quarter of 2006. The first well located in Hood County was fracture stimulated in March 2007 and is producing from four stages. Peak production rates up to 1.5 mmcfpd (million cubic feet per day) have been realized with approximately 40% of the frac load fluid recovered to date. The second well in this county has peak production rates of 1.3 mmcfpd (million cubic feet per day) from two producing stages. Approximately 65% of the frac load fluid has been recovered. The other two wells located in Parker County have been drilled and are awaiting a 3,000 foot pipeline tie-in prior to completion. Production from these wells is expected to commence in the third quarter.

The key considerations in the established areas of the Barnett are related primarily to operational and engineering issues (completion methods, production infrastructure, etc). Unless there is strong technical evidence of a possible major undeveloped area, we are planning on investing only in the established production areas in the Barnett. A particular focus will be given to selecting projects that have short pipeline connection timeframes. The working interests achieved in these new projects will vary depending on the acreage tracts available and the business risks attributed to each project.

States of Colorado, Montana and Wyoming - Rocky Mountain Program

We have embarked on a joint venture with Hunter Energy LLC of Denver, Colorado. We have made an initial commitment to participate in the drilling of three new projects. We have a 25% working interest in the three new Hunter Energy projects. The project areas are geographically located in north-western Colorado, south-western Wyoming, and northern Montana. The gross acreage position in the three areas is approximately 77,000 acres. We have advanced approximately $3.4 million dollars in land, prospect fees and drilling costs relating to this project.

Although the initial test well in Colorado was not successful, plans for this project include working with area operators to continue the exploration program. Drilling on the south west Wyoming project and the Montana project are anticipated to commence in 2007 with consideration being given to service industry equipment availability and prevailing short-term winter weather conditions. It is anticipated that our share of costs to drill these two wells will be approximately $1.4 million.

Alberta Canada Deep Basin - Western Canadian Program

We have licensed a 120 square mile seismic data set, at a cost of approximately $1.3 million, to assist in the generation of the most prospective drilling sites. To date, we have access to thirty-one sections of land (approximately 20,000 gross acres), which are in various stages of earning with a number of joint venture partners.

We have participated in drilling and/or completing eight Deep Basin wells at a total cost of approximately $7.2 million net to us. These eight wells were drilled as part of four different joint ventures with varying working interests.

We have commenced production from two of three wells drilled in the last four months of 2006 in the Alberta Deep Basin. The first well located in the Kakwa Area intersected four gas bearing zones (Cadomin, Bluesky, Falher G, Falher B) which have been completed in a 10,500 foot well in the Kakwa area of Northwestern Alberta. This well has been tested at a facility restricted rate of 3.6 mmcfpd or 600 BOED (barrels of oil equivalent per day) and is capable of producing over 5.0 mmcfpd or 830 BOED. We paid 20% of the well costs for an 18% interest before payout (and 12% after payout) in this well. Due to restricted plant capacity this well is not expected to commence production until the fourth quarter of 2007. The second well is located in the Wapiti Area and we have an approximate 35% working interest in this 7,900 foot well that is located within the multi-township 3-D seismic area licensed by us. This well was completed in the shallow Cretaceous Dunvegan sandstone interval. Subsequent to completion, the well was connected to a nearby pipeline. Initial production rates range from 0.4 to 0.6 mmcfpd or 60 to 100 BOED. The third well was also drilled in the Wapiti Area and we have a 50% interest in this 9,900 foot well that was testing the Cadomin and Falher zones. The Cadomin zone was completed but tested wet. The Falher zone tested gas but at rates that were uneconomic to tie-in this past winter season. A potential tie-in for this well will be re-evaluated in the future based upon gas prices and future pipeline activity in the area. Accordingly, this well is currently suspended as a potential gas well.

Of the remaining five wells drilled by us prior to this past winter, one of the wells drilled in late 2005 tested fresh water, with no natural gas present. Another well tested gas but at rates that that were uneconomic to warrant a pipeline tie based on today’s natural gas pricing environment. The final three wells were taken over by a new operator during mid 2006 and we are waiting for the new operator to complete technical due diligence on the wells and propose a timeline and revised completions strategy for these wells.

Eastern Coast Canada - Canadian Shale Gas Program

Over the last twelve months, a multi-disciplined geoscience team has screened prospective basins in Eastern Canada. The screening process includes an assessment of the geologic history for a given area, estimates of pressure and temperature profiles and a determination of the ability to fracture stimulate a prospective shale package.

As a direct result of implementing this strategy, we have executed a farm-in agreement with a Canadian company to pursue a shale gas opportunity in Eastern Canada. The project covers approximately 68,000 acres and we believe it to be located in a favorable geological setting based on technical work performed to date. Additional laboratory measurements will be taken on core samples and drill cuttings, which are available from previously drilled conventional wells. We will be entitled to earn an average 70% working interest in the block subsequent to the acquisition and evaluation of a seismic program and then electing to drill a test well no later than December 31, 2008. We plan to move forward aggressively in the assessment of this new project areas.

15

 
In addition, we have committed to another project located in the Windsor Area of Nova Scotia, Canada covering approximately 516,000 acres. Based on an extensive screening process and technical work performed to date, this area is believed to be located in a highly favorable geological setting. Additional laboratory measurements will be taken on core samples and drill cuttings which are available from previously drilled conventional wells. We will be entitled to earn an average 70% working interest in the block subsequent to paying an $80,000 deposit to the Nova Scotia Government prior to September 15, 2007 and then electing to drill a test well no later than September 15, 2008. We plan to move forward aggressively in the assessment of this new project.

Results of Operations

For the three months ended April 30, 2007, we realized $96,644 in revenue from natural gas sales, as compared to $nil for the comparable period in 2006. This revenue was the result of our realizing production from six small working interest wells located in the Barnett Shale in Texas and two wells located in the Deep Basin of Alberta. Royalties and production expenses related to this revenue totaled $30,363 for the three months ended April 30, 2007 as compared to $nil for the three months ended April 30, 2006.

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended April 30, 2007 totaled $2,228,488 as compared to $2,149,427 for the same period in 2006. The largest component of general and administrative expenses was stock based compensation expense which totaled $1,625,536 for the three months ended April 30, 2007 and $1,597,368 for the comparable period in 2006. Also included in the above totals were salaries, wages and consulting fees of $273,826 and $238,826 for the three months ended April 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The remaining $329,126 and $313,233 of general and administrative expenses for the three months ended April 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, is comprised of travel and other office related expenses.  

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As at April 30, 2007, we had working capital of $13,590,795. For the three months ended April 30, 2007, we had net cash outflow from operating activities of $1,803,926. Cash used in investing activities totaled $2,643,530 for the three months ended April 30, 2007, which was used to fund Triangle USA’s share of costs relating to the first vertical well drilled in Fayetteville Shale Project in the Arkoma Basin, as well as remaining capital commitments for the three Deep Basin gas wells drilled in Alberta during the winter of 2007. Cash provided by financing activities totaled $19,308,006 for the three months ended April 30, 2007. On February 26, 2007, we sold an aggregate of 10,412,000 shares of our common stock to 24 accredited investors in a private placement transaction for aggregate proceeds of $20,824,000.

We expect significant capital expenditures during the next 12 months for seismic data acquisitions, land and drilling rights acquisitions, drilling programs, overhead and working capital purposes. We have sufficient funds to conduct our operations for the balance of 2007. If additional financing is required, there can be no assurance that it will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all.

By adjusting our operations to the level of capitalization, we believe we have sufficient capital resources to meet projected cash flow deficits. However, if during that period or thereafter, we are not successful in generating sufficient liquidity from 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. 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 still need additional investments in order to continue operations until we are able to achieve positive operating cash flow. Additional investments are being sought, but we cannot guarantee 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. However, the trading price of our common stock and a 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 we could incur unexpected costs and expenses, fail to collect significant amounts owed to us, or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us 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.

To date, we have generated minimal revenues and have incurred operating losses in every quarter. Our registered independent auditors have stated in their report dated April 2, 2007, that we are an early exploration company, have not generated significant revenues from operations and has incurred significant losses since inception. These factors among others raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

December 8, 2005 Secured Convertible Debenture Financing

To obtain funding for our ongoing operations, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Cornell Capital Partners L.P., an accredited investor, on December 8, 2005 for the sale of $15,000,000 in secured convertible debentures. They provided us with an aggregate of $15,000,000 as follows:

 
·
$5,000,000 was disbursed on December 8, 2005;

 
·
$5,000,000 was disbursed on January 17, 2006; and

 
·
$5,000,000 was disbursed on June 1, 2006.
 
As of June 22, 2007, $4,000,000 of the debenture had been converted into 2,091,764 shares of common stock and $11,000,000 remained outstanding.

The secured convertible debentures bear interest at 5%, mature three years from the date of issuance, and are convertible into our common stock, at the selling stockholders' option, at the lower of (i) $5.00 or (ii) 90% of the average of the three lowest daily volume weighted average prices of our common stock, as quoted by Bloomberg, LP, of the 10 trading days immediately preceding the date of conversion. Accordingly, there is in fact no limit on the number of shares into which the secured convertible debentures may be converted. As of June 22, 2007, the average of the three lowest intraday trading prices for our common stock during the preceding 10 trading days as quoted by Bloomberg, LP was $2.00 and, therefore, the conversion price for the secured convertible notes was $1.80. Based on this conversion price, the $11,000,000 in secured convertible debentures remaining outstanding, excluding interest, were convertible into 6,111,112 shares of our common stock. The sale of such a large number of shares of common stock could significantly deflate the market price of our common stock, which would have the further effect of requiring us to issue additional shares upon conversion of the secured convertible debentures. Depending on our stock price, the conversion of the secured convertible debentures could lead to the sale of potentially controlling amounts of shares of common stock.

The investor has contractually agreed to restrict its ability to convert the debentures and receive shares of our common stock such that the number of shares of common stock held by it and its affiliates after such conversion does not exceed 4.9% of the then issued and outstanding shares of common stock. In addition, the investor is restricted from converting more than $1,500,000 in principle amount of the debenture in any thirty day period, with no more than $1,000,000 of such amount at the variable market conversion price.

We have the right, at our option, with three business days advance written notice, to redeem a portion or all amounts outstanding under the secured convertible debentures prior to the maturity date provided that the closing bid price of our common stock, is less than $5.00 at the time of the redemption. In the event of a redemption, we are obligated to pay an amount equal to the principal amount being redeemed plus a 20% redemption premium, and accrued interest.

In connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement dated December 8, 2005, we granted the investor registration rights. We were obligated to use our best efforts to cause the registration statement to be declared effective no later than June 30, 2006 and to insure that the registration statement remains in effect until all of the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the secured convertible debentures have been sold. In the event of a default of our obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, including if the registration statement is not declared effective by June 30, 2006, we are required pay to Cornell, as liquidated damages, for each month that the registration statement has not been filed or declared effective, as the case may be, either a cash amount or shares of our common stock equal to 2% of the liquidated value of the secured convertible debentures. The registration statement was declared effective on May 25, 2006.

17

In connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement dated December 8, 2005, we and each of our subsidiaries executed security agreements in favor of the investor granting them a first priority security interest in all of our goods, inventory, contractual rights and general intangibles, receivables, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and intellectual property. The security agreements state that if an event of default occurs under the secured convertible debentures or security agreements, the investors have the right to take possession of the collateral, to operate our business using the collateral, and have the right to assign, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of and deliver all or any part of the collateral, at public or private sale or otherwise to satisfy our obligations under these agreements.

December 28, 2005 Convertible Debenture and Warrants Financing

To obtain funding for our ongoing operations, we entered into Securities Purchase Agreements with two accredited investors on December 28, 2005 for the sale of (i) $10,000,000 in convertible debentures and (ii) warrants to purchase 1,250,000 shares of our common stock. The two accredited investors, Bank Sal. Oppenheim Jr. & Cie., (Schweiz) AG and Centrum Bank each subscribed for 50% of the total offering.

The investors provided us with an aggregate of $10,000,000 as follows:

 
·
$5,000,000 was disbursed on December 28, 2005; and

 
·
$5,000,000 was disbursed on January 23, 2006.

Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreements, we issued to each investor 625,000 warrants to purchase shares of common stock on December 28, 2005 and January 23, 2006. As of June 22, 2007, $10,000,000 of the issued debentures were outstanding and none had been converted.

The convertible debentures bear interest at 7.5%, mature three years from the date of issuance, and are convertible into our common stock, at the selling stockholders' option, at a rate of $4.00 per share. The investors have contractually agreed to restrict their ability to convert its debentures or exercise its warrants and receive shares of our common stock such that the number of shares of common stock held by it and its affiliates after such conversion or exercise does not exceed 4.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of common stock. 
 
In connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement dated December 28, 2005, we granted the investors registration rights. Pursuant to the registration rights agreement, if we did not have the registration statement declared effective on or before May 27, 2006, we were obligated to pay liquidated damages in the amount of 1.0% for each 30-day period or pro rata for any portion thereof following the date by which such registration statement should have been filed for which no registration statement is filed or should have been declared effective. The registration statement was declared effective on May 25, 2006.

February 26, 2007 Private Placement

On February 26, 2007, we sold an aggregate of 10,412,000 shares of our common stock to 24 accredited investors in a private placement transaction for aggregate proceeds of $20,824,000. Pursuant to the terms of sale, we agreed to cause a resale registration statement covering the common stock to be filed no later than 30 days after the closing and declared effective no later than 120 days after the closing. If we fail to comply with the registration statement filing or effective date requirements, we will be required to pay the investors a fee equal to 1% of the aggregate amount invested by the purchasers per each 30 day period of delay, not to exceed 10%. We paid the placement agents of the offering a cash fee of 6.5% of the proceeds of the offering. The registration statement was declared effective on March 14, 2007.

Critical Accounting Policies
 
Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires us 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. We regularly evaluate estimates and assumptions related to useful life and recoverability of long-lived assets, asset retirement obligations, stock-based compensation and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. We base our estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by us may differ materially and adversely from our estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

Investment in Oil and Gas Properties

We utilize the full cost method to account for our investment in oil and gas properties. Accordingly, all costs associated with acquisition and exploration of oil and gas reserves, including such costs as leasehold acquisition costs, interest costs relating to unproved properties, geological expenditures and direct internal costs are capitalized into the full cost pool. As of January 31, 2007, we had one property with proven reserves. For our proven oil and gas reserves, capitalized costs, including estimated future costs to develop the reserves and estimated abandonment costs, net of salvage, will be depleted on the units-of-production method using estimates of proved reserves. Investments in unproved properties and major development projects including capitalized interest, if any, are not amortized until proved reserves associated with the projects can be determined. If the future exploration of unproved properties is determined uneconomical, the amounts of such properties are added to the capitalized cost to be amortized.
 
The capitalized costs included in the full cost pool are subject to a “ceiling test”, which limits such costs to the aggregate of the estimated present value, using an estimated discount rate, of the future net revenues from proved reserves, based on current economic and operating conditions and the estimated value of unproven properties.

Long-lived Assets

In accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, we test long-lived assets or asset groups for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the asset; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed significantly before the end of its estimated useful life.

Recoverability is assessed based on the carrying amount of the asset and its fair value which is generally determined based on the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and the eventual disposal of the asset, as well as specific appraisal in certain instances. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds fair value.

Asset Retirement Obligations
 
We recognize a liability for future retirement obligations associated with our oil and gas properties. The estimated fair value of the asset retirement obligation is based on the current cost escalated at an inflation rate and discounted at a credit adjusted risk-free rate. This liability is capitalized as part of the cost of the related asset and amortized over its useful life. The liability accretes until we settle the obligation.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
We recognize oil and gas revenue when production is sold to a purchaser at a fixed or determinable price, when delivery has occurred and title has transferred, and if collectibility of the revenue is probable.
 
Stock-Based Compensation

Prior to February 1, 2006, we accounted for stock-based awards under the recognition and measurement provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion (“APB”) No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” using the intrinsic value method of accounting. Effective February 1, 2006, we adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123R “Share Based Payments”, using the modified prospective transition method. Under that transition method, compensation cost is recognized for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of February 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS No. 123, and compensation cost for all share-based payments granted subsequent to February 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123R. Results for prior periods have not been restated.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115”. This statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Most of the provisions of SFAS No. 159 apply only to entities that elect the fair value option. However, the amendment to SFAS No. 115 “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities” applies to all entities with available-for-sale and trading securities. SFAS No. 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year that begins on or before November 15, 2007, provided the entity also elects to apply the provision of SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on our future reported financial position or results of operations.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans - an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R)”. This statement requires employers to recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan (other than a multiemployer plan) as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income of a business entity or changes in unrestricted net assets of a not-for-profit organization. This statement also requires an employer to measure the funded status of a plan as of the date of its year-end statement of financial position, with limited exceptions. The provisions of SFAS No. 158 are effective for employers with publicly traded equity securities as of the end of the fiscal year ending after December 15, 2006. The adoption of this statement did not have a material effect on our financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”. The objective of SFAS No. 157 is to increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and to expand disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements and does not require any new fair value measurements. The provisions of SFAS No. 157 are effective for fair value measurements made in fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on our future reported financial position or results of operations.

In March 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 156, "Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities". This statement requires all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities be initially measured at fair value, if practicable, and permits for subsequent measurement using either fair value measurement with changes in fair value reflected in earnings or the amortization and impairment requirements of Statement No. 140. The subsequent measurement of separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities at fair value eliminates the necessity for entities that manage the risks inherent in servicing assets and servicing liabilities with derivatives to qualify for hedge accounting treatment and eliminates the characterization of declines in fair value as impairments or direct write-downs. SFAS No. 156 is effective for an entity's first fiscal year beginning after September 15, 2006. The adoption of this statement did not have a material effect on our financial statements.

In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, "Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments-an amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140", to simplify and make more consistent the accounting for certain financial instruments. SFAS No. 155 amends SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", to permit fair value re-measurement for any hybrid financial instrument with an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation, provided that the whole instrument is accounted for on a fair value basis. SFAS No. 155 amends SFAS No. 140, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets", to allow a qualifying special-purpose entity to hold a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative financial instrument. SFAS No. 155 applies to all financial instruments acquired or issued after the beginning of an entity's first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006, with earlier application allowed. The adoption of this statement did not have a material effect on our financial statements.

BUSINESS

OVERVIEW

We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on December 11, 2003 under the name Peloton Resources Inc. In December 2003, we purchased six mineral claims situated in the Greenwood Mining Division in the Province of British Columbia, Canada. Our principal business plan was to acquire, explore and develop mineral properties and to ultimately seek earnings by exploiting the mineral claims. Subsequent to the period, we abandoned our mineral property as a result of poor exploration results, and decided to change our principal business to that of acquisition and exploration of oil and gas resource properties. On May 10, 2005, we changed our name to Triangle Petroleum Corporation.

We are an exploration company focused on the Fayetteville Shale project in Arkansas, the Barnett Shale project in Texas, emerging shale gas opportunities on the East Coast of Canada and resource plays in select areas of the western United States. An experienced team comprising technical and business skills has been formed to optimize our opportunities through our operating subsidiaries, Triangle USA Petroleum Corporation in the United States and Elmworth Energy Corporation in Canada.

THE NATURAL GAS INDUSTRY

The Rise of Natural Gas

Little more than a half-century ago, drillers seeking valuable crude oil bemoaned the discovery of natural gas, despite it being the most efficient and cleanest burning fossil fuel. Given the lack of transportation infrastructure at the time, wells had to be capped or the gas flared. As the U.S. economy expanded after World War II, the development of a vast interstate transmission system facilitated widespread consumption of natural gas in homes and business establishments. By 1970, natural gas consumption, on a heat-equivalent basis, had risen to three-fourths that of oil. But in the following decade, consumption lagged because of competitive inroads made by coal and nuclear power.

The demand for natural gas rose sharply in the 1980’s, when consumers and businesses began to find more uses for it. After years as a low-value commodity, natural gas ascended into the spotlight as demand for the fuel to fire power plants, heat homes and serve as a chemical feedstock outstripped the petroleum industry's ability to tap new reserves. In the 1990’s, the popularity of natural gas as an economic and environmentally benign fossil fuel made it the fuel of choice for power generation.

By the year 2000, the U.S. economy was thriving, fueled by cheap energy. To meet the growing need for electricity, U.S. utilities ordered 180,000 Megawatts of gas-fired power plants to be installed by 2005. This was, by far, the largest amount of power generation capacity ever installed in such a short period. As a result, the U.S. electricity supply margins and its economy became dependent on natural gas availability and price. Today, any new electricity capacity brought on line is generated by natural gas, rather than oil, coal, water or nuclear. This has prompted the National Petroleum Council to predict that electricity generation will be responsible for 47% of the increase in natural gas consumption between 1998 and 2010.

Current U.S. Demand

The United States currently depends on natural gas for approximately 23% of its total primary energy requirements. But with its commitment to the use of natural gas, particularly in the electricity sector, the U.S. now finds itself with a supply shortage at a time of increased demand.

From 1990 through 2003, natural gas consumption in the United States increased by 14%. According to the Energy Information Administration’s Annual Energy Outlook 2007 (AEO2007) US natural gas demand is expected to increase from 22 trillion cubic feet in 2005 to 26.1 trillion cubic feet in 2030, with the bulk of the increase expected to happen by 2020. This pace of growth is slower than in previous forecasts due to a smaller increase in industrial demand and a leveling off in natural gas fired electricity generation. Although, natural gas consumption is projected to grow to 26.1 trillion cubic feet in 2030, this is down from the projection of 26.9 trillion cubic feet in 2030 in the AEO2006 forecast and well below the projections of 30 trillion cubic feet or more included in AEO forecasts only a few years ago. The generally higher natural gas prices projected in the AEO2007 forecast results in lower projected growth of natural gas use for electricity generation over the last decade of the projection period. Total natural gas consumption is projected to be almost flat from 2020 through 2030, when growth in residential, commercial, and industrial consumption is offset by a decline in natural gas use for electricity generation as a result of greater coal use.

21

 
The demand for natural gas is further influenced by the crude oil market. Although crude oil and natural gas are two separate commodities, their prices have historically been correlated at irregular intervals. Strong oil prices generally keep natural gas prices elevated because fuel oil is a possible substitute for natural gas. As the price of crude oil increases, some industries switch to natural gas. This is particularly true in the electricity sector.

The Supply Situation

Presently, the United States relies on three sources for its natural gas. Domestic production accounts for 80% of supply. Imports from Canada, mainly the western provinces of Alberta, British Columbia and Saskatchewan provide an additional 17%. Imports of liquefied natural gas make up the remainder.

According to the AEO2007 forecast, total domestic natural gas production is expected to increase from 18.3 trillion cubic feet in 2005 to 21.1 trillion cubic feet in 2022, before declining to 20.6 trillion cubic feet in 2030 in the AEO2007 forecast. Production of unconventional natural gas is expected to be a major contributor to growth in U.S. natural gas supplies. Incremental production of onshore natural gas comes primarily from unconventional resources, including coalbed methane, tight sandstones, and gas shales. Unconventional production increases in the forecast from 8.0 trillion cubic feet in 2005 to 10.2 trillion cubic feet in 2030, when it accounts for 50 percent of projected domestic U.S. natural gas production, due in part to the addition of the Fayetteville and Woodford shale resources.
 
In a recent report published by Pickering Energy Partners, a research firm specializing in the energy industry, U.S. supply is expected to grow by approximately 1 billion cubic feet per day or roughly two percent in 2007. This will continue to have a moderating effect on price as the growth in supply is expected to more than satisfy existing demand. This trend is an extension of what was witnessed in 2006 when onshore U.S. natural gas production grew (thru October) by 1.9 billion cubic feet per day or 4% compared to year before. A main cause of this growth was increasing rig count which was up by 225 rigs (+19%) over the same time period. In fact, onshore production has steadily grown since early 2002 when the rig count began to climb steadily. The U.S. rig count has more than doubled and onshore production has increased by approximately 4.5 billion cubic feet per day (+10%) since early 2002.
 
Canadian Gas Declining

As in the United States, the Canadian supply situation is characterized by declining production from mature supply resources and increasing production from unconventional resources as well as increased supplies from the Arctic region. Thus, overall Canadian production is projected to remain relatively flat and exports to the United States, after factoring in expanding Canadian use, are expected to decline. Canada is expected to use more natural gas to heat buildings and to produce unconventional oil from tar sands, which uses heat from natural gas. According to the Energy Information Administration’s (EIA) most recent forecast, pipeline imports from Canada to the United States reached their peak between 2000 and 2005, and will decline slowly but steadily for the next two decades.

Commodity Price Volatility

Oil and natural gas prices are volatile and subject to a number of external factors.  Prices are cyclical and fluctuate as a result of shifts in the balance between supply and demand for oil and natural gas, world and North American market forces, conflicts in middle eastern countries, inventory and storage levels, OPEC policy, weather patterns and other factors. OPEC supply curtailment, tensions in the middle east, increased demand in China and low North American crude stocks have kept crude oil prices high.  Natural gas prices are greatly influenced by market forces in North America since the primary source of supply is contained within the continent.  Market forces include the industry's ability to find new production and reserves to offset declining production, economic factors influencing industrial demand, weather patterns affecting heating demand and the price of oil for fuel switching.

Seasonality

The exploration for oil and natural gas reserves depends on access to areas where operations are to be conducted.  Seasonal weather variations, including freeze-up and break-up affect access in certain circumstances. According to the American Petroleum Institute, more than 60 million U.S. households use natural gas for water heating, space heating, or cooking. In total, natural gas accounts for more than 50 percent of the fuel used to heat U.S. homes. Residential and commercial heating demand for natural gas is highly weather-sensitive, making weather the biggest driver of natural gas demand in the short term. As a result, natural gas demand is highly “seasonal” in nature, with significant “peaks” in the winter heating season.

OUR PROPERTIES

Arkoma Basin Arkansas - Fayetteville Shale Program

We have committed to an initial $16 million joint venture in the Fayetteville Shale of the Arkoma Basin with Kerogen Resources. We believe that this area has the ability to deliver similar results to the trend setting Barnett Shale of the Fort Worth Basin. We and Kerogen have an equal 50% working interest position in approximately 20,000 gross acres leased to date in Conway and Faulkner Counties. A measured pace of additional leasing is planned to complement the 2007 drilling program. Based upon strong initial drilling results from major oil and gas companies just north of our land position, we believe that the Fayetteville Shale program has the potential to be a major growth initiative. As at January 31, 2007, we had advanced approximately $6.8 million to fund our share of land costs incurred to date and an additional $1.6 million to fund our share of the first vertical well, which commenced drilling subsequent to year end. The remaining capital commitment of $7.8 million is expected to be incurred within the next 12 to 18 months and will be used to fund $2.8 million of seismic expenditures and $5.0 million of drilling costs.

The first vertical test well of the Fayetteville joint venture reached its targeted depth of 8,300 feet on April 4, 2007. Drill cuttings and other samples were taken from the well and sent in for further lab work and analysis. Concurrent with the first drilling operation, a new multi-component 3-D seismic survey had also commenced. The seismic survey was shot over approximately half of the target area and sent for processing in early April 2007. Depending on the results of the seismic program and the vertical test well, we may consider initiating a horizontal drilling program.

The experience gained on the initial test wells will guide the drilling and completions planned for the overall 2007 drilling program. We recognize that there will be unique formation properties that require well by well analysis to determine the optimum horizontal well planning and fracture stimulation programs.

Our strategy is to establish commercial production from the Fayetteville in the joint venture controlled areas that will be capable of accessing current and expanded pipeline connectivity. Expectations are to participate in the drilling of between five and ten wells during the next twelve months. Working interests will vary for the joint venture as a combination of pooled and 100% joint venture lands will be drilled. The key business issues associated with the Fayetteville include optimizing drilling and completion costs in the area as the service industry matures along with assessing the optimum multi-stage stimulation programs in the horizontal wells.

Greater Fort Worth Basin Texas - Barnett Shale Program

We believe that a major shift is unfolding in the recognition and commercialization of unconventional gas reservoirs. Specifically, commercial shale gas production in the United States is emerging as a cornerstone of the overall North American gas supply. In October of 2005, we successfully initiated a business relationship with a focused shale gas company, Kerogen Resources Inc., or Kerogen, of Houston, Texas. The principals of Kerogen and Ron Hietala, a director and officer of ours, have a long history of working together and developing new opportunities. We believe that the Kerogen team has a well established track record in shale gas and unconventional reservoir development.

23

 
We have acquired a 30% working interest position in a five county joint venture program with Kerogen. The five counties are located in the South Fort Worth Basin and include Johnson, Hood, Hill, Sommerville and Bosque. To date, approximately 13,000 gross acres have been leased. One new ten square mile 3-D seismic survey has been shot over an acreage tract in Hill County. As of January 31, 2007, we have expended approximately $2.5 million in prospect fees, land costs and, geological and geophysical expenditures.

We have participated in four lower working interest (approximately 6%) horizontal wells (one in Johnson County and three in Hill County). The four wells which are all currently producing had initial gross production rates of between 400 mcf/day (million cubic feet per day) and 2,800 mcf/day. These initial production rates should stabilize at lower levels over time. The operator of these wells has commenced voluntary bankruptcy proceedings. As a result, we have not received our monthly participation revenue. We have spent approximately $666,000 on drilling and completing these four wells. Our Barnett Shale plans include further drilling over the next twelve months which will be a combination of traditional Barnett programs and new opportunities.

In November 2006, we participated in a new joint venture with an experienced Texas-based operator. To date, we have participated in four Barnett Shale gas wells with working interests ranging between 11% and 15%. At January 31, 2007, the costs incurred to drill and complete these wells totaled approximately $1.4 million. We have commenced production from two of the first four horizontal wells drilled in the fourth quarter of 2006. The first well located in Hood County was fracture stimulated in March 2007 and is producing from four stages. Peak production rates up to 1.5 mmcfpd have been realized with approximately 40% of the frac load fluid recovered to date. The second well in this county has peak production rates of 1.3 mmcfpd from two producing stages. Approximately 65% of the frac load fluid has been recovered. The other two wells located in Parker County have been drilled and are awaiting a 3,000 foot pipeline tie-in prior to completion. Production from these wells is expected to commence in the third quarter.

The key considerations in the established areas of the Barnett are related primarily to operational and engineering issues (completion methods, production infrastructure, etc). Unless there is strong technical evidence of a possible major undeveloped area, we are planning on investing only in the established production areas in the Barnett. A particular focus will be given to selecting projects that have short pipeline connection timeframes. The working interests achieved in these new projects will vary depending on the acreage tracts available and the business risks attributed to each project.

States of Colorado, Montana and Wyoming - Rocky Mountain Program

The Rocky Mountain region of the Western United States presents opportunities that bear many of the positive attributes of the Alberta Deep Basin. The Rocky Mountain core area strategy for us has been to identify higher-risk, large growth potential projects that have low to moderate acreage costs which can also be readily leased.

We have embarked on a joint venture with Hunter Energy LLC, or Hunter, of Denver, Colorado. Hunter has developed an extensive project inventory based on an analysis of each of the Western United States’ sub-basins, and the team of geo-scientists and engineering specialists has selected those which demonstrate key indicators for major new hydrocarbon accumulations. In turn, we have made an initial commitment to participate in the drilling of three new projects.

We have a 25% working interest in the three new Hunter Energy projects. The project areas are geographically located in north-western Colorado, south-western Wyoming, and northern Montana. The gross acreage position in the three areas is approximately 77,000 acres. We have advanced approximately $3.4 million in land and prospect fees relating to this project.

An initial exploration test well was drilled on the north-western Colorado project at a cost of approximately $1.2 million net to us. Production was not established from this first well. Plans for the north-west Colorado project include working with area operators to continue the exploration program, which we believe should be very active. Drilling on the south west Wyoming project and the Montana project are anticipated to commence in 2007 with consideration being given to service industry equipment availability and prevailing short-term winter weather conditions. It is anticipated that our share of costs to drill these two wells will be approximately $1.4 million.

The re-evaluation of the Rocky Mountain basins has identified significant opportunities which were not the prime targets at the time of previous and deeper drilling by the industry. The predominant issues associated with the shallower Rocky Mountain project areas are reservoir permeability and the occurrence of local fresh waters being present.

Alberta Canada Deep Basin - Western Canadian Program

As a direct result of our experienced Deep Basin team, our first exploration program was in this area. The Alberta Deep Basin is a long-term gas exploitation area located primarily in northwestern Alberta. Some of the early wells drilled by Canadian Hunter resulted in very prolific wells during the 1970’s and 1980’s. Since then, over 6 Tcf of gas has been produced by the key industry producers in this Basin.

24

 
There are three new conditions which should generate new production for companies committed to a long-term strategy in the Deep Basin. The first significant development is the co-mingling of gas from a variety of the possible seventeen separate geologic horizons in the Deep Basin. The co-mingling of these multiple productive zones greatly improves the economics of a project. The second significant development is the downspacing from one well per section (640 acres) down to four wells per section which provides a more efficient recovery of the resources. The third significant development is the availability of extensive 3-D seismic data covering multiple townships of the Deep Basin. We have licensed a 120 square mile seismic data set, at a cost of approximately $1.3 million, to assist in the generation of the most prospective drilling sites.

Two controlling factors that influence the development of new drilling locations are land availability and increasing costs of placing a well on production. Access to land has improved and completion costs appear to have peaked. To date, we have access to thirty-one sections of land (approximately 20,000 gross acres), which are in various stages of earning with a number of joint venture partners.

We have participated in drilling and/or completing eight Deep Basin wells at a total cost of approximately $5.4 million net to us. These eight wells were drilled as part of four different joint ventures with varying working interests.

We have commenced production from two of three wells drilled in the last four months of 2006 in the Alberta Deep Basin. The first well located in the Kakwa Area intersected four gas bearing zones (Cadomin, Bluesky, Falher G, Falher B) which have been completed in a 10,500 foot well in the Kakwa area of Northwestern Alberta. This well has been tested at a facility restricted rate of 3.6 mmcfpd or 600 BOED (barrels of oil equivalent per day) and is capable of producing over 5.0 mmcfpd or 830 BOED. We paid 20% of the well costs for an 18% interest before payout (and 12% after payout) in this well. Due to restricted plant capacity this well is not expected to commence production until the fourth quarter of 2007. The second well is located in the Wapiti Area and we have an approximate 35% working interest in this 7,900 foot well that is located within the multi-township 3-D seismic area licensed by us. This well was completed in the shallow Cretaceous Dunvegan sandstone interval. Subsequent to completion, the well was connected to a nearby pipeline. Initial production rates range from 0.4 to 0.6 mmcfpd or 60 to 100 BOED. The third well was also drilled in the Wapiti Area and we have a 50% interest in this 9,900 foot well that was testing the Cadomin and Falher zones. The Cadomin zone was completed but tested wet. The Falher zone tested gas but at rates that were uneconomic to tie-in this past winter season. A potential tie-in for this well will be re-evaluated in the future based upon gas prices and future pipeline activity in the area. Accordingly, this well is currently suspended as a potential gas well.

Of the remaining five wells drilled by us prior to this past winter, one of the wells drilled in late 2005 tested fresh water, with no natural gas present. Another well tested gas but at rates that that were uneconomic to warrant a pipeline tie based on today’s natural gas pricing environment. The final three wells were taken over by a new operator during mid 2006 and we are waiting for the new operator to complete technical due diligence on the wells and propose a timeline and revised completions strategy for these wells.

25

 
Our strategy is to participate in selective drilling opportunities at a working interest of between 20% and 35%. The multi-horizon Deep Basin area provides improved financial returns to companies that plan, and execute, multi-well programs which reduce geologic risk and individual well costs. We currently have a strong inventory of drilling locations and the focus will be to appropriately access the land and generate a return on our investment to date.

Eastern Coast Canada - Canadian Shale Gas Program

The first phase of our Canadian shale gas strategy involves building on our two core shale gas projects in the United States, the Fayetteville Shale Project in Arkansas and the Barnett Shale Project in Texas. We will be building on and transferring experience gained from these two joint-venture projects to new shale gas opportunities in Canada. At this early stage of Canadian shale gas exploration, we believe we have the ability to identify and secure significant land blocks on a cost effective basis.

The strategy incorporates six main areas which include:

1.
Geoscience and engineering screening;
 
2.
Land acquisition program;
 
3.
Establishment of appropriate joint-venture partnerships;
 
4.
Acquisition of project focused seismic;
 
5.
Execution of initial drilling and completion program; and
 
6.
Implementation of continuous development operations and production.

Over the last twelve months, a multi-disciplined geoscience team has screened prospective basins in Eastern Canada. The screening process includes an assessment of the geologic history for a given area, estimates of pressure and temperature profiles and a determination of the ability to fracture stimulate a prospective shale package.

As a direct result of implementing this strategy, we have executed a farm-in agreement with a Canadian company to pursue a shale gas opportunity in Eastern Canada. The project covers approximately 68,000 acres and we believe it to be located in a favorable geological setting based on technical work performed to date. Additional laboratory measurements will be taken on core samples and drill cuttings, which are available from previously drilled conventional wells. We will be entitled to earn an average 70% working interest in the block subsequent to the acquisition and evaluation of a seismic program and then electing to drill a test well no later than December 31, 2008. We plan to move forward aggressively in the assessment of this and other new project areas.

COMPETITORS

In the Fayetteville Shale area located in the Arkoma Basin in Arkansas, we compete with several large and well known public and private companies such as Southwestern Energy Corporation, Chesapeake Energy Resources, and Hallwood Petroleum. This is one of new emerging shale gas areas and is attracting a great deal of industry interest. Competition for equipment, personnel and services is expected to be similar to the Barnett Shale area.

In the Barnett Shale area located in the Greater Fort Worth Basin of Texas, we compete with a number of larger well known oil and gas exploration companies such as Burlington Resources, Devon Energy, EOG Resources, Encana, Murphy Oil and Quicksilver Resources. Each of these companies has significant financial resources as well as specialized engineering expertise in the area which makes them formidable competitors. Due to the area’s significant potential upside, the Barnett Shale has recently attracted a great deal of interest from numerous other companies and it is expected that the competition for land, personnel and equipment will become more intense over the months and years ahead.

In the Deep Basin area of Western Canada, we have several active competitors and many potential competitors, including all public and private oil and gas exploration companies in North America as well as select companies from China and Europe. Some of the larger and well capitalized companies that are actively exploring and producing from the Deep Basin area include BP Canada Energy Company, Burlington Resources Canada Ltd., Devon Canada Corporation, and Talisman Energy Inc. Each of these companies has significant existing cash flow, capital budgets and in-house expertise to continue seeking additional oil and gas reserves in the Deep Basin.

In the Rocky Mountain region of the United States, we compete with a combination of larger exploration companies and focused regional players. Some of the key competitors in this area include Encana, EOG Resources, Anadarko Petroleum and Ultra Petroleum. These companies all share key attributes that have led to their collective success in the area. These attributes include significant financial resources and excellent technical staff who specialize in the complexities associated with extracting natural gas from these formations.
 
26

 
On the eastern coast of Canada there are several specialized competitors who have been pursuing their respective strategies for a number of years. These companies include Contact Exploration Inc., Stealth Ventures and Corridor Resources Inc. These companies have gained technical expertise in the area as they have continued to advance their respective exploration programs, however each company has limited financial capacity and therefore abundant exploration opportunities continue to exist for companies willing to make financial commitments to this project area.

GOVERNMENTAL REGULATIONS

Canada

The oil and natural gas industry in Canada is subject to extensive controls and regulations imposed by various levels of government. We do not expect that any of these controls or regulations will affect our operations in a manner materially different than they would affect other oil and gas industry participants of similar size.

In addition to federal regulation, each province has legislation and regulations which govern land tenure, royalties, production rates, environmental protection and other matters. The royalty regime is a significant factor in the profitability of oil and natural gas production. Royalties payable on production from lands other than government lands are determined by negotiations between the mineral owner and the lessee. Royalties on government land are determined by government regulation and are generally calculated as a percentage of the value of gross production, and the rate of royalties payable generally depends upon prescribed reference prices, well productivity, geographical location, field discovery date and the type or quality of the petroleum product produced.

In Alberta, the royalty reserved to the Crown in respect of natural gas production, subject to various incentives, is between 15% and 30%, in the case of new natural gas, and between 15% and 35%, in the case of old natural gas, depending upon a prescribed or corporate average reference price. Natural gas produced from qualifying exploratory natural gas wells spudded or deepened after July 31, 1985 and before June 1, 1988 is eligible for a royalty exemption for a period of 12 months, up to a prescribed maximum amount. Natural gas produced from qualifying intervals in eligible gas wells spudded or deepened to a depth below 2,500 meters is also subject to a royalty exemption, the amount of which depends on the depth of the wells.
 
The North American Free Trade Agreement among the governments of Canada, the United States and Mexico became effective on January 1, 1994. NAFTA carries forward most of the material energy terms that are contained in the Canada-U.S. Free Trade Agreement. Subject to the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, Canada continues to remain free to determine whether exports of energy resources to the United States or Mexico will be allowed, so long as any export restrictions do not:
 

·
reduce the proportion of energy resources exported relative to total supply (based upon the proportion prevailing in the most recent 36 month period or another representative period agreed upon by the parties);
 
·
impose an export price higher than the domestic price (subject to an exception that applies to some measures that only restrict the value of exports); or

·
disrupt normal channels of supply.

All three countries are prohibited from imposing minimum or maximum export or import price requirements, with some limited exceptions.

United States

Our operations are or will be subject to various types of regulation at the federal, state and local levels. Such regulation includes requiring permits for the drilling of wells; maintaining bonding requirements in order to drill or operate wells; implementing spill prevention plans; submitting notification and receiving permits relating to the presence, use and release of certain materials incidental to oil and gas operations; and regulating the location of wells, the method of drilling and casing wells, the use, transportation, storage and disposal of fluids and materials used in connection with drilling and production activities, surface usage and the restoration of properties upon which wells have been drilled, the plugging and abandoning of wells and the transporting of production. Our operations are or will be also subject to various conservation matters, including the regulation of the size of drilling and spacing units or proration units, the number of wells which may be drilled in a unit, and the unitization or pooling of oil and gas properties. In this regard, some states allow the forced pooling or integration of tracts to facilitate exploration while other states rely on voluntary pooling of lands and leases, which may make it more difficult to develop oil and gas properties. In addition, state conservation laws establish maximum rates of production from oil and gas wells, generally limit the venting or flaring of gas, and impose certain requirements regarding the ratable purchase of production. The effect of these regulations is to limit the amounts of oil and gas we may be able to produce from our wells and to limit the number of wells or the locations at which we may be able to drill.
 
27

Our business is affected by numerous laws and regulations, including energy, environmental, conservation, tax and other laws and regulations relating to the oil and gas industry. We plan to develop internal procedures and policies to ensure that our operations are conducted in full and substantial environmental regulatory compliance.
 
Failure to comply with any laws and regulations may result in the assessment of administrative, civil and criminal penalties, the imposition of injunctive relief or both. Moreover, changes in any of these laws and regulations could have a material adverse effect on business. In view of the many uncertainties with respect to current and future laws and regulations, including their applicability to us, we cannot predict the overall effect of such laws and regulations on our future operations.
 
We believe that our operations comply in all material respects with applicable laws and regulations and that the existence and enforcement of such laws and regulations have no more restrictive an effect on our operations than on other similar companies in the energy industry. We do not anticipate any material capital expenditures to comply with federal and state environmental requirements.

ENVIRONMENTAL

Canada

The oil and natural gas industry is governed by environmental regulation under Canadian federal and provincial laws, rules and regulations, which restrict and prohibit the release or emission and regulate the storage and transportation of various substances produced or utilized in association with oil and natural gas industry operations. In addition, applicable environmental laws require that well and facility sites be abandoned and reclaimed, to the satisfaction of provincial authorities, in order to remediate these sites to near natural conditions. Also, environmental laws may impose upon “responsible persons” remediation obligations on property designated as a contaminated site. Responsible persons include persons responsible for the substance causing the contamination, persons who caused the release of the substance and any present or past owner, tenant or other person in possession of the site. Compliance with such legislation can require significant expenditures. A breach of environmental laws may result in the imposition of fines and penalties and suspension of production, in addition to the costs of abandonment and reclamation.

In Alberta, all applicable environmental laws are consolidated in the Alberta Environmental Protection and Enhancement Act. Under this Act, environmental standards and requirements applicable to compliance, cleanup and reporting have been made more strict. Also, the range of enforcement actions available and the severity of penalties have been significantly increased. These changes will have an incremental increase in the cost of conducting oil and natural gas operations in Alberta.

In 1994, the United Nations' Framework Convention on Climate Change came into force and three years later led to the Kyoto Protocol which requires, upon ratification, nations to reduce their emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases. In December 2002, the Canadian federal government ratified the Kyoto Protocol. If certain conditions are met and the Kyoto Protocol enters into force internationally, Canada will be required to reduce its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Currently the upstream crude oil and natural gas sector is in discussions with various provincial and federal levels of government regarding the development of greenhouse gas regulations for the industry. It is premature to predict what impact these potential regulations could have on us but it is possible that we would face increases in operating costs in order to comply with a GHG emissions target.

United States

Operations on properties in which we have an interest are subject to extensive federal, state and local environmental laws that regulate the discharge or disposal of materials or substances into the environment and otherwise are intended to protect the environment. Numerous governmental agencies issue rules and regulations to implement and enforce such laws, which are often difficult and costly to comply with and which carry substantial administrative, civil and criminal penalties and in some cases injunctive relief for failure to comply.
 
28

Some laws, rules and regulations relating to the protection of the environment may, in certain circumstances, impose “strict liability” for environmental contamination. These laws render a person or company liable for environmental and natural resource damages, cleanup costs and, in the case of oil spills in certain states, consequential damages without regard to negligence or fault. Other laws, rules and regulations may require the rate of oil and gas production to be below the economically optimal rate or may even prohibit exploration or production activities in environmentally sensitive areas. In addition, state laws often require some form of remedial action, such as closure of inactive pits and plugging of abandoned wells, to prevent pollution from former or suspended operations.
 
Legislation has been proposed in the past and continues to be evaluated in Congress from time to time that would reclassify certain oil and gas exploration and production wastes as “hazardous wastes.” This reclassification would make these wastes subject to much more stringent storage, treatment, disposal and clean-up requirements, which could have a significant adverse impact on operating costs. Initiatives to further regulate the disposal of oil and gas wastes are also proposed in certain states from time to time and may include initiatives at the county, municipal and local government levels. These various initiatives could have a similar adverse impact on operating costs.
 
The regulatory burden of environmental laws and regulations increases our cost and risk of doing business and consequently affects our profitability. The federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, or CERCLA, also known as the “Superfund” law, imposes liability, without regard to fault, on certain classes of persons with respect to the release of a “hazardous substance” into the environment. These persons include the current or prior owner or operator of the disposal site or sites where the release occurred and companies that transported, disposed or arranged for the transport or disposal of the hazardous substances found at the site. Persons who are or were responsible for releases of hazardous substances under CERCLA may be subject to joint and several liability for the costs of cleaning up the hazardous substances that have been released into the environment and for damages to natural resources, and it is not uncommon for the federal or state government to pursue such claims.
 
It is also not uncommon for neighboring landowners and other third parties to file claims for personal injury or property or natural resource damages allegedly caused by the hazardous substances released into the environment. Under CERCLA, certain oil and gas materials and products are, by definition, excluded from the term “hazardous substances.” At least two federal courts have held that certain wastes associated with the production of crude oil may be classified as hazardous substances under CERCLA. Similarly, under the federal Resource, Conservation and Recovery Act, or RCRA, which governs the generation, treatment, storage and disposal of “solid wastes” and “hazardous wastes,” certain oil and gas materials and wastes are exempt from the definition of “hazardous wastes.” This exemption continues to be subject to judicial interpretation and increasingly stringent state interpretation. During the normal course of operations on properties in which we have an interest, exempt and non-exempt wastes, including hazardous wastes, that are subject to RCRA and comparable state statutes and implementing regulations are generated or have been generated in the past. The federal Environmental Protection Agency and various state agencies continue to promulgate regulations that limit the disposal and permitting options for certain hazardous and non-hazardous wastes.
 
We have established guidelines and management systems to ensure compliance with environmental laws, rules and regulations. The existence of these controls cannot, however, guarantee total compliance with environmental laws, rules and regulations. We believe that the operator of the properties in which we have an interest is in substantial compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations relating to the control of air emissions at all facilities on those properties. Although we maintain insurance against some, but not all, of the risks described above, including insuring the costs of clean-up operations, public liability and physical damage, there is no assurance that our insurance will be adequate to cover all such costs, that the insurance will continue to be available in the future or that the insurance will be available at premium levels that justify our purchase. The occurrence of a significant event not fully insured or indemnified against could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and operations. Compliance with environmental requirements, including financial assurance requirements and the costs associated with the cleanup of any spill, could have a material adverse effect on our capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position. We do believe, however, that our operators are in substantial compliance with current applicable environmental laws and regulations. Nevertheless, changes in environmental laws have the potential to adversely affect operations. At this time, we have no plans to make any material capital expenditures for environmental control facilities.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

We are currently participating with our partner, Kerogen Resources, in recording a 24 square-mile three component 3-D seismic survey for the Fayetteville Share Program. The survey is utilizing the state of the art I/O System Four recording system with three component digital VectorSeis geophones, which reportedly have impressive fidelity and do not require horizontal leveling prior to acquisition. The survey is expected to cost $2.5 million upon completion.

We must also pay our share of building operating costs and taxes.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. We are currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition or operating results.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Other than as disclosed below, there have been no transactions, or proposed transactions, which have materially affected or will materially affect us in which any director, executive officer or beneficial holder of more than 10% of the outstanding common stock, or any of their respective relatives, spouses, associates or affiliates, has had or will have any direct or material indirect interest. We have no policy regarding entering into transactions with affiliated parties.

On January 19, 2006, we paid $30,000 Cdn (approximately $26,023 US based on current exchange rates) for prospect fees to Petro Hunt Oil & Gas Ltd., a company in which Ron Hietala, one of our directors, is the President and beneficial owner.

Between June and August 2005, our former President donated consulting services to us in the amount of $3,000.

On June 2, 2005, Triangle Petroleum Corporation entered into agreements with Ron W. Hietala and Ron Kinniburgh, pursuant to which Mr. Hietala and Mr. Kinniburgh each purchased 2,000,000 shares of our common, for which each paid $20,000. The securities were issued in a private placement transaction pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Mr. Hietala is a shareholder and beneficial owner of Triangle Petroleum Corporation. Mr. Kinniburgh is a beneficial owner of Triangle Petroleum Corporation. On June 30, 2005, we entered into an agreement with Mr. Kinniburgh, pursuant to which Mr. Kinniburgh agreed to return the 2,000,000 shares of common stock to us in exchange for the return of his original purchase price of $20,000.

On June 2, 2005, John D. Carlson purchased 1,500,000 shares of our common stock from Mark Gustafson in a private transaction. Mr. Carlson and Mr. Gustafson are both directors and beneficial owners of Triangle Petroleum Corporation.
 
On May 12, 2005, Sergei Stetsenko, our then president and member of the board of directors returned 34,300,000 shares of our common stock to us. The shares were returned as a result of a preliminary report issued in connection with our mining property that reflected that there was no mineralized material located on the property.

On May 12, 2005, Mark Gustafson purchased 4,000,000 restricted shares of our common stock from us for consideration of $40,000 in cash.

CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES
 
December 8, 2005 Secured Convertible Debenture Financing

To obtain funding for our ongoing operations, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Cornell Capital Partners L.P., an accredited investor, on December 8, 2005 for the sale of $15,000,000 in secured convertible debentures. They provided us with an aggregate of $15,000,000 as follows:

● $5,000,000 was disbursed on December 8, 2005;

● $5,000,000 was disbursed on January 17, 2006; and

● $5,000,000 was disbursed on June 1, 2006

As of June 22, 2007, $4,000,000 of the debenture had been converted into 2,091,764 shares of common stock and $11,000,000 remained outstanding.

The secured convertible debentures bear interest at 5%, mature three years from the date of issuance, and are convertible into our common stock, at the selling stockholders' option, at the lower of (i) $5.00 or (ii) 90% of the average of the three lowest daily volume weighted average prices of our common stock, as quoted by Bloomberg, LP, of the 10 trading days immediately preceding the date of conversion. Accordingly, there is in fact no limit on the number of shares into which the secured convertible debentures may be converted. As of June 22, 2007, the average of the three lowest intraday trading prices for our common stock during the preceding 10 trading days as quoted by Bloomberg, LP was $2.00 and, therefore, the conversion price for the secured convertible notes was $1.80. Based on this conversion price, the $11,000,000 in secured convertible debentures remaining outstanding, excluding interest, were convertible into 6,111,112 shares of our common stock. The sale of such a large number of shares of common stock could significantly deflate the market price of our common stock, which would have the further effect of requiring us to issue additional shares upon conversion of the secured convertible debentures. Depending on our stock price, the conversion of the secured convertible debentures could lead to the sale of potentially controlling amounts of shares of common stock.
 
39

 
The investor has contractually agreed to restrict its ability to convert the debentures and receive shares of our common stock such that the number of shares of common stock held by it and its affiliates after such conversion does not exceed 4.9% of the then issued and outstanding shares of common stock. In addition, the investor is restricted from converting more than $1,500,000 in principle amount of the debenture in any thirty day period, with no more than $1,000,000 of such amount at the variable market conversion price.

We have the right, at our option, with three business days advance written notice, to redeem a portion or all amounts outstanding under the secured convertible debentures prior to the maturity date provided that the closing bid price of our common stock, is less than $5.00 at the time of the redemption. In the event of a redemption, we are obligated to pay an amount equal to the principal amount being redeemed plus a 20% redemption premium, and accrued interest.

In connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement dated December 8, 2005, we granted the investor registration rights. We were obligated to use our best efforts to cause the registration statement to be declared effective no later than June 30, 2006 and to insure that the registration statement remains in effect until all of the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the secured convertible debentures have been sold. In the event of a default of our obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, including if the registration statement is not declared effective by June 30, 2006, we are required pay to Cornell, as liquidated damages, for each month that the registration statement has not been filed or declared effective, as the case may be, either a cash amount or shares of our common stock equal to 2% of the liquidated value of the secured convertible debentures. The registration statement was declared effective on May 25, 2006.

In connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement dated December 8, 2005, we and each of our subsidiaries executed security agreements in favor of the investor granting them a first priority security interest in all of our goods, inventory, contractual rights and general intangibles, receivables, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and intellectual property. The security agreements state that if an event of default occurs under the secured convertible debentures or security agreements, the investors have the right to take possession of the collateral, to operate our business using the collateral, and have the right to assign, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of and deliver all or any part of the collateral, at public or private sale or otherwise to satisfy our obligations under these agreements.

Sample Conversion Calculation

The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the secured convertible debentures is determined by dividing that portion of the principal of the secured convertible debentures to be converted and interest, if any, by the conversion price. For example, assuming conversion of the remaining $11,000,000 of secured convertible debentures, at a conversion price of $1.80 as of June 22, 2007, the number of shares issuable upon conversion would be:

$11,000,000/$1.80 = 6,111,112 shares

The following is an example of the amount of shares of our common stock that are issuable, upon conversion of the principal amount of our outstanding $11,500,000 secured convertible debentures, based on market prices 25%, 50% and 75% below the market price as of June 1, 2007 of $2.02.

December 28, 2005 Convertible Debenture And Warrants Financing

To obtain funding for our ongoing operations, we entered into Securities Purchase Agreements with two accredited investors on December 28, 2005 for the sale of (i) $10,000,000 in convertible debentures and (ii) warrants to purchase 1,250,000 shares of our common stock. The two accredited investors, Bank Sal. Oppenheim Jr. & Cie., (Schweiz) AG and Centrum Bank each subscribed for 50% of the total offering.

This prospectus relates to the resale of the common stock underlying these convertible debentures and warrants. The investors provided us with an aggregate of $10,000,000 as follows:

$5,000,000 was disbursed on December 28, 2005; and

$5,000,000 was disbursed on January 23, 2006.

Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreements, we issued to each investor 625,000 warrants to purchase shares of common stock on December 28, 2005 and January 23, 2006, which warrants have expired. As of June 22, 2007, $10,000,000 of the issued debentures were outstanding and none had been converted.

The convertible debentures bear interest at 7.5%, mature three years from the date of issuance, and are convertible into our common stock, at the selling stockholders' option, at a rate of $4.00 per share. The investors have contractually agreed to restrict their ability to convert its debentures or exercise its warrants and receive shares of our common stock such that the number of shares of common stock held by it and its affiliates after such conversion or exercise does not exceed 4.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of common stock. 

In connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement dated December 28, 2005, we granted the investors registration rights. Pursuant to the registration rights agreement, if we do not have the registration statement declared effective on or before May 27, 2006, we are obligated to pay liquidated damages in the amount of 1.0% for each 30-day period or pro rata for any portion thereof following the date by which such registration statement should have been filed for which no registration statement is filed or should have been declared effective.

INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES

Our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, provide to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law, our directors or officers shall not be personally liable to us or our shareholders for damages for breach of such director's or officer's fiduciary duty. The effect of this provision of our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, is to eliminate our rights and our shareholders (through shareholders' derivative suits on behalf of our company) to recover damages against a director or officer for breach of the fiduciary duty of care as a director or officer (including breaches resulting from negligent or grossly negligent behavior), except under certain situations defined by statute. We believe that the indemnification provisions in our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act” or “Securities Act”) may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The selling stockholders and any of their respective pledgees, donees, assignees and other successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The selling stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:

·
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits the purchaser;
 
 
·
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
     
 
·
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
     
 
·
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
     
 
·
privately-negotiated transactions;
     
 
·
short sales that are not violations of the laws and regulations of any state or the United States;
     
 
·
broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
     
 
·
through the writing of options on the shares;
     
 
·
a combination of any such methods of sale; and
     
 
·
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

The selling stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus. The selling stockholders shall have the sole and absolute discretion not to accept any purchase offer or make any sale of shares if they deem the purchase price to be unsatisfactory at any particular time.

The selling stockholders may also engage in short sales against the box, puts and calls and other transactions in our securities or derivatives of our securities and may sell or deliver shares in connection with these trades, provided, however, that the selling stockholders cannot engage in short sales against the box to the extent that the short sale occurs prior to the effectiveness of this registration statement and the short sale is covered by registered shares after the effectiveness of this registration statement. Pursuant to the securities purchase agreement with Cornell Capital Partners, it has agreed to not engage in any short sales or hedging transactions in our common stock as long as any of the secured convertible debentures remain outstanding.

The selling stockholders or their respective pledgees, donees, transferees or other successors in interest, may also sell the shares directly to market makers acting as principals and/or broker-dealers acting as agents for themselves or their customers. Such broker-dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling stockholders and/or the purchasers of shares for whom such broker-dealers may act as agents or to whom they sell as principal or both, which compensation as to a particular broker-dealer might be in excess of customary commissions. Market makers and block purchasers purchasing the shares will do so for their own account and at their own risk. It is possible that a selling stockholder will attempt to sell shares of common stock in block transactions to market makers or other purchasers at a price per share which may be below the then market price. The selling stockholders cannot assure that all or any of the shares offered in this prospectus will be issued to, or sold by, the selling stockholders. The selling stockholders and any brokers, dealers or agents, upon effecting the sale of any of the shares offered in this prospectus, may be deemed to be “underwriters” as that term is defined under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the rules and regulations under such acts. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.
 
42

 
We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares, including fees and disbursements of counsel to the selling stockholders, but excluding brokerage commissions or underwriter discounts.

The selling stockholders, alternatively, may sell all or any part of the shares offered in this prospectus through an underwriter. No selling stockholder has entered into any agreement with a prospective underwriter and there is no assurance that any such agreement will be entered into.

The selling stockholders may pledge their shares to their brokers under the margin provisions of customer agreements. If a selling stockholder defaults on a margin loan, the broker may, from time to time, offer and sell the pledged shares. The selling stockholders and any other persons participating in the sale or distribution of the shares will be subject to applicable provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations under such act, including, without limitation, Regulation M. These provisions may restrict certain activities of, and limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares by, the selling stockholders or any other such person. In the event that the selling stockholders are deemed affiliated purchasers or distribution participants within the meaning of Regulation M, then the selling stockholders will not be permitted to engage in short sales of common stock. Furthermore, under Regulation M, persons engaged in a distribution of securities are prohibited from simultaneously engaging in market making and certain other activities with respect to such securities for a specified period of time prior to the commencement of such distributions, subject to specified exceptions or exemptions. In regards to short sells, the selling stockholder can only cover its short position with the securities they receive from us upon conversion. In addition, if such short sale is deemed to be a stabilizing activity, then the selling stockholder will not be permitted to engage in a short sale of our common stock. All of these limitations may affect the marketability of the shares.

We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders, or their transferees or assignees, against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or to contribute to payments the selling stockholders or their respective pledgees, donees, transferees or other successors in interest, may be required to make in respect of such liabilities.

If the selling stockholders notify us that they have a material arrangement with a broker-dealer for the resale of the common stock, then we would be required to amend the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, and file a prospectus supplement to describe the agreements between the selling stockholders and the broker-dealer.

* This column represents an estimated number based on a conversion prices as of a recent date of June 22, 2007 of $1.80, $4.00 and $4.00 for Cornell Capital Partners LP, Bank Sal. Oppenheim Jr. & Cie., (Schweiz) AG and Centrum Bank, respectively, divided into the principal amount of the convertible debentures.

** Represents the aggregate maximum number and percentage of shares that the selling stockholder can own at one time (and therefore, offer for resale at any one time) due to its 4.9% limitation.

The number and percentage of shares beneficially owned is determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and the information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Under such rule, beneficial ownership includes any shares as to which the selling stockholders has sole or shared voting power or investment power and also any shares, which the selling stockholders has the right to acquire within 60 days. The actual number of shares of common stock issuable upon the conversion of the secured convertible notes is subject to adjustment depending on, among other factors, the future market price of the common stock, and could be materially less or more than the number estimated in the table.

(1) Includes a good faith estimate of the shares issuable upon conversion of the secured convertible debentures and convertible debentures, based on current market prices. Because the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the secured convertible debentures is dependent in part upon the market price of the common stock prior to a conversion, the actual number of shares of common stock that will be issued upon conversion will fluctuate daily and cannot be determined at this time. Under the terms of the secured convertible debentures, if the secured convertible debentures had actually been converted on June 22, 2007, the secured convertible debentures would have had a conversion price of $1.80. The actual number of shares of common stock offered in this prospectus, and included in the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, includes such additional number of shares of common stock as may be issued or issuable upon conversion of the secured convertible debentures by reason of any stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction involving the common stock, in accordance with Rule 416 under the Securities Act of 1933. However the selling stockholders have contractually agreed to restrict their ability to convert their secured convertible debentures and convertible debentures or exercise their warrants and receive shares of our common stock such that the number of shares of common stock held by them in the aggregate and their affiliates after such conversion or exercise does not exceed 4.99% (4.9% for Cornell Capital Partners L.P.) of the then issued and outstanding shares of common stock as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. Accordingly, the number of shares of common stock set forth in the table for Cornell Capital Partners, L.P. exceeds the number of shares of common stock that it could own beneficially at any given time through its ownership of the secured convertible debentures. In that regard, the beneficial ownership of the common stock by the selling stockholder set forth in the table is not determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

Our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, provide to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law, our directors or officers shall not be personally liable to us or our shareholders for damages for breach of such director's or officer's fiduciary duty. The effect of this provision of our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, is to eliminate our right and our shareholders (through shareholders' derivative suits on behalf of our company) to recover damages against a director or officer for breach of the fiduciary duty of care as a director or officer (including breaches resulting from negligent or grossly negligent behavior), except under certain situations defined by statute. We believe that the indemnification provisions in its Articles of Incorporation, as amended, are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
 
ITEM 15. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES.

During the past three years, the registrant has sold the following securities which were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

On May 9, 2005, we declared a stock dividend of six shares of common stock for each one share of common stock outstanding.

On May 16, 2005, we issued 4,000,000 restricted shares of common stock to Mark Gustafson, our President, at a price of $0.01 per share in exchange for $40,000 in cash. The securities were issued in a private placement transaction pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
 
II-1

 
On June 2, 2005, we entered into agreements with Ron W. Hietala and Ron Kinniburgh, pursuant to which Messrs. Hietala and Kinniburgh each purchased 2,000,000 shares of common stock, for which each investor paid $20,000. On June 30, 2005, we entered into an agreement with Mr. Kinniburgh, pursuant to which Mr. Kinniburgh agreed to return the 2,000,000 shares of common stock to us in exchange for the return of his original purchase price of $20,000. The securities were issued in a private placement transaction pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Mr. Hietala is a shareholder and beneficial owner of the Company.

On June 14, 2005, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with a single accredited investor pursuant to which the investor purchased an 8% convertible debenture with a principal amount of $1,000,000, and a warrant to purchase 1,000,000 shares of our common stock, exercisable at a price of $1.00 per share until June 15, 2008. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the investor had the right during the next 60 days, but not the obligation, to purchase up to $5,000,000 of additional convertible debentures and warrants to purchase 5,000,000 shares of our common stock. The investor exercised the purchase right and invested the additional $5,000,000 on July 14, 2005, in exchange for an 8% convertible debenture with a principal amount of $5,000,000, and a warrant to purchase 5,000,000 shares of our common stock, exercisable at a price of $1.00 per share until June 15, 2008.

The convertible debentures are due and payable on June 10, 2007 unless earlier converted into shares of our common stock. The principal and accrued interest on the convertible debenture may be converted into shares of our common stock at a rate of $1.00 per share, at the option of the holder. The investor has contractually agreed to restrict its ability to convert or exercise its warrants and receive shares of our common stock such that the number of shares of common stock held by it and its affiliates after such conversion or exercise does not exceed 4.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of common stock. The securities were issued in a private placement transaction pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

On September 22, 2005, we issued 300,000 shares of common stock to Eclipse Ventures International for investor relations serviced provided to us. The shares were issued pursuant to an exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933.

To obtain funding for our ongoing operations, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Cornell Capital Partners L.P., an accredited investor, on December 8, 2005 for the sale of $15,000,000 in secured convertible debentures. The investors are obligated to provide us with an aggregate of $15,000,000 as follows:

$5,000,000 was disbursed on December 8, 2005;

$5,000,000 was disbursed on January 17, 2006; and

$5,000,000 will be disbursed within five days after the effectiveness of this registration statement.

Accordingly, we have received a total of $10,000,000 pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement.

The secured convertible debentures bear interest at 5%, mature three years from the date of issuance, and are convertible into our common stock, at the selling stockholders' option, at the lower of (i) $5.00 or (ii) 90% of the average of the three lowest daily volume weighted average prices of our common stock, as quoted by Bloomberg, LP, of the 10 trading days immediately preceding the date of conversion. The investor has contractually agreed to restrict its ability to convert the debentures and receive shares of our common stock such that the number of shares of common stock held by it and its affiliates after such conversion does not exceed 4.9% of the then issued and outstanding shares of common stock. 

We have the right, at our option, with three business days advance written notice, to redeem a portion or all amounts outstanding under the secured convertible debentures prior to the maturity date provided that the closing bid price of our common stock, is less than $5.00 at the time of the redemption. In the event of a redemption, we are obligated to pay an amount equal to the principal amount being redeemed plus a 20% redemption premium, and accrued interest. The securities were issued in a private placement transaction pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

To obtain funding for our ongoing operations, we entered into Securities Purchase Agreements with two accredited investors on December 28, 2005 for the sale of (i) $10,000,000 in convertible debentures and (ii) warrants to purchase 1,250,000 shares of our common stock. The two accredited investors, Bank Sal. Oppenheim Jr. & Cie., (Schweiz) AG and Centrum Bank each subscribed for 50% of the total offering.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.

(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which it offers or sells securities, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to: 

(i) Include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

(ii) Reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually or together, represent a fundamental change in the information in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) (§230.424(b) of this chapter) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and
 
(iii) Include any additional or changed material information on the plan of distribution.
 
(2) For determining liability under the Securities Act, treat each post-effective amendment as a new registration statement of the securities offered, and the offering of the securities at that time to be the initial bona fide offering. 

(3) File a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of the securities that remain unsold at the end of the offering.
 
(4) For determining liability of the undersigned registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:  

(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424; 

(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
 
II-9

 
(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

(b) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”) may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in such Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in such Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.  

(c) For determining any liability under the Securities Act, the registrant will treat the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a filed by the registrant under Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act as part of this Registration Statement as of the time the Commission declared it effective.  

(d) For determining any liability under the Securities Act, the registrant will treat each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus as a new registration statement for the securities offered in the registration statement and that offering of the securities at that time as the initial bona fide offering of those securities.  

(e) For the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.
