PART III - NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable  detail the reasons why the Form 10-K and Form 10-KSB,
11-K, 20-F, 10-Q and Form 10-QSB,  N-SAR, or other transition  report or portion
thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed period.

     Baron Energy, Inc. (the "Registrant") was not able to timely file its
quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended April 30, 2010 (the "10-Q")
by the prescribed due date of June 14, 2010 because the Registrant's independent
auditor, GBH CPAs PC, ("Auditors") has not yet completed its review of the
interim financial statements to be included in the 10-Q due to the Registrant's
inability to complete the presentation of its financial statements and provide
the financial statements to the Auditors for its review a reasonable time prior
to June 14, 2010. Registrant intends to file the 10-Q on or prior to the
prescribed extended date of June 21, 2010.
