NOTE 13: Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
     In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-03 (“ASU 2010-03”) to align the oil and natural gas reserve estimation and disclosure requirements of ASC Topic 932, Extractive Industries — Oil and Gas, with the requirements in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s final rule, Modernization of the Oil and Gas Reporting Requirements, which was issued on December 31, 2008 and was adopted on a prospective basis beginning in the fourth quarter of our fiscal year ended September 30, 2010. The Company implemented ASU 2010-03 prospectively as a change in accounting principle inseparable from a change in accounting estimate.
     Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB, or other standards-setting bodies, that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
