Notes to Condensed Financial Statements

(unaudited)

Note 1 – Nature of Operations, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Unaudited Interim Financial Information

Infinity Energy Resources, Inc. (collectively, “we,” “ours,” “us,” “Infinity” or the “Company”) has prepared the accompanying condensed financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial reporting. These financial statements are unaudited and, in our opinion, include all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals necessary for a fair presentation of our balance sheets, statements of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for 2016 due to various factors. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and accompanying notes in Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data,” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC.

Nature of Operations

The Company is pursuing the exploration of potential oil and gas resources in the Perlas and Tyra concession blocks offshore Nicaragua in the Caribbean Sea (the “Nicaraguan Concessions” or “Concessions”), which contain a total of approximately 1.4 million acres. The Company sold its wholly-owned subsidiary Infinity Oil and Gas of Texas, Inc. in 2012 and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Infinity Oil and Gas of Wyoming, Inc., was administratively dissolved in 2009.

The Company has been pursuing exploration and development of the Nicaraguan Concessions, which represents its principal asset and only exploration and development project. On March 5, 2009 Infinity signed the contracts relating to its Nicaraguan Concessions. Infinity has conducted activities to develop geological information from the processing and evaluation of 2-D seismic data that was acquired for the Nicaraguan Concessions. The Company has identified multiple sites for exploratory drilling and will plan the initial exploratory well on the Perlas Block in order to determine the existence of commercial hydrocarbon reserves, subject to receipt from the Nicaraguan government of authorizations for the drilling of up to five wells, financing and satisfaction of other conditions. In order to meet its obligations under the Perlas Block of the Nicaraguan Concession, the Company has to drill its initial exploratory well during 2016 or risk being in default and losing its rights under the Nicaraguan Concessions. The work plan on the Tyra block now requires the Company to shoot additional seismic prior to the commencement of exploratory drilling. The Company is seeking a waiver of the additional seismic mapping on the Tyra Block and extension of time to complete its initial well from the Nicaraguan government. There can be no assurance whether it will be able to obtain such waiver of the requirements. The current environment for oil and gas development projects, especially discoveries in otherwise undeveloped regions of the world, is very challenging given the depressed commodity prices for oil and gas products and the resulting industry-wide reduction in capital expenditure budgets for exploration and development projects. There can be no assurance whether the Company will be able to obtain adequate financing to fund the exploration and development of its Nicaraguan Concessions.

On May 7, 2015 the Company completed the private placement (the “May 2015 Private Placement”) of a $12.0 million principal amount Secured Convertible Note (the “Note”) and a common stock purchase warrant to purchase 1,800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Warrant”) with an institutional investor (the “Investor”). At the closing, the Investor acquired the Note by paying $450,000 in cash and issuing a promissory note, secured by cash, with a principal amount of $9,550,000 (the “Investor Note”). Assuming all amounts payable to the Company under the Investor Note are paid, the May 2015 Private Placement will result in gross proceeds of $10.0 million before placement agent fees and other expenses associated with the transaction, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. The Company will receive the remaining cash proceeds upon each voluntary or mandatory prepayment of the Investor Note. The Investor may, at its option and at any time, voluntarily prepay the Investor Note, in whole or in part. As of September 30, 2016 an additional $60,000 was funded under the Investor Note for a total of $510,000 advanced to the Company.

 7

The Investor must prepay the Investor Note, in whole or in part, upon the occurrence of one or more mandatory prepayment events. These include (i) the Investor’s conversion of the Note into shares of common stock upon which the Investor will be required to prepay the Investor Note, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, for each subsequent conversion of the Note and (ii) the Company’s delivering a mandatory prepayment notice to the Investor after it has received governmental authorizations from the Nicaraguan authorities necessary to commence drilling on at least five sites within the Concessions and the receipt of forbearance or similar agreements relative to its general creditors, among other conditions.

The Note matures on the three-year anniversary of its issuance, bears interest at 8% per annum, and is convertible at any time at the option of the holder into shares of the Company’s common stock at $5.00 per share (the “Conversion Price”). As a part of the May 2015 Private Placement, the Company issued a Warrant to the Investor giving it the right to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share. The Warrant is exercisable commencing six months from the date of issuance for a period of seven years from the date of issuance. The Note ranks senior to the Company’s existing and future indebtedness and is secured by all of the assets of the Company, excluding the Concessions.

In addition, the Company continues to seek offers from industry operators and other third parties for interests in the acreage in the Nicaraguan Concessions in exchange for cash and a carried interest in exploration and development operations or other joint venture arrangement.

Going Concern

As reflected in the accompanying statements of operations, the Company has had a history of losses. In addition, the Company has a significant working capital deficit and is currently experiencing substantial liquidity issues.

The Company has relied on raising debt and equity capital in recent years in order to fund its ongoing maintenance/expenditure obligations under the Nicaraguan Concession, for its day-to-day operations and its corporate overhead because it has generated no operating revenues or cash flows in recent history. The $1.0 million December 2013 Note (See Note 3) matured in April 2016 and is currently in technical default. The Company is seeking an extension of the maturity date; however, there can be no assurance that it will be able to obtain such extension or what the final terms will be if the lender agrees to such extension.

The Company is in Sub-Period 3 of the exploration phase of the 30-year Concession for both Perlas and Tyra as of September 30, 2016. Sub-Period 3 of the Nicaraguan Concessions requires the drilling of at least one exploratory well on the Perlas Block during 2016 and the shooting of additional seismic on the Tyra Block. The Company plans to identify at least one potential drilling site on the Perlas Block as required in Sub-Period 3 and will have to perform supplemental EIA work prior to requesting and receiving the permit to drill from the Nicaraguan government. The work plan on the Tyra block for Sub-Period 3 requires the Company to shoot additional seismic, which is estimated to cost approximately $2,500,000 prior to the commencement of exploratory drilling. The Company is seeking a waiver of the additional seismic mapping on the Tyra Block and extension of time to complete its initial well from the Nicaraguan government. The Nicaraguan Government is in an election year in 2016, therefore such efforts have been delayed until the election is over. There can be no assurance whether it will be able to obtain a waiver of the requirements.

In accordance with the Nicaraguan Concession agreements, the Company has previously provided the Ministry of Energy with the required letters of credit in the amounts of $443,100 for Perlas (expired March 2014) and $408,450 for Tyra (expired September 2014). The Company has also made all required expenditures related to the Nicaraguan Concessions for training programs and as “area fees,” for each respective year for 2010 through 2015. However, approximately $155,567 was due and payable in March 2016 for 2016 training program and area fees that remain unpaid and outstanding as of September 30, 2016. In accordance with the Nicaraguan Concession agreements, the Company must provide the Ministry of Energy with the required letters of credit in the amounts, which total $1,356,227 for the Perlas block and $278,450 for the Tyra block for exploration requirements on the leases as required by the Nicaraguan Concessions, to replace the expired letters of credit. The minimum cash requirements to maintain and comply with the minimum work program as defined in the Nicaraguan Concessions for the next twelve-month period will be approximately $5,500,000 for the Perlas Block, which includes all costs to prepare for and drill the initial exploratory well, and $280,000 for the Tyra Block, assuming the waiver is granted regarding the seismic mapping. If such waiver is not granted, the Company estimates it will require approximately $2,500,000 for the seismic mapping. Finally, the Company estimates it will need approximately $300,000 to prepare and submit an environmental supplement to the Nicaraguan government to identify and receive authorization to drill up to five wells in the Concessions.

 8

If the Company does not receive the funding anticipated under its May 2015 Private Placement, it must raise substantial amounts of debt and equity capital from other sources in the immediate future in order to fund: (1) the annual training program and area fees for 2016; (2) required letters of credit to the Nicaraguan Government; (3) the drilling of at least one exploratory well on the Perlas Block of the Nicaraguan Concessions during 2016; (4) the shooting of additional seismic on the Tyra Block of the Nicaraguan Concessions should it be unable to negotiate a waiver of such requirement from the Nicaraguan government; (5) normal day-to-day operations and corporate overhead; and (6) outstanding debt and other financial obligations as they become due including the $1.0 million December 2013 Note, which currently is in technical default. These are substantial operational and financial issues that must be successfully addressed during 2016 or the Company’s ability to satisfy the conditions necessary to maintain its Nicaragua Concessions will be in significant doubt. The Company is seeking new outside sources of debt and equity capital in addition to the May 2015 Private Placement in order to fund the substantial needs enumerated above; however, there can be no assurance that it will be able to obtain such capital or obtain it on favorable terms or within the timeframe necessary to cure the technical defaults existing on the Nicaraguan Concessions or to meet its ongoing requirements relative to drilling the exploratory wells. The current environment for oil and gas development projects, especially discoveries in otherwise undeveloped regions of the world, is very challenging given the depressed commodity prices for oil and gas products, and the resulting industry-wide reduction in capital expenditure budgets for exploration and development projects. These are substantial impediments for the Company to obtain adequate financing to fund the exploration and development of its Nicaraguan projects.

Due to the uncertainties related to these matters, there exists substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Management Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates with regard to the financial statements include the estimated carrying value of unproved properties, the estimated fair value of derivative liabilities, secured convertible note payable, stock-based awards and overriding royalty interests, and the realization of deferred tax assets.

Oil and Gas Properties

Unproved properties are assessed periodically (at least annually) to ascertain whether impairment has occurred. Unproved properties whose costs are individually significant are assessed individually by considering the primary lease terms of the properties, the holding period of the properties, geographic and geologic data obtained relating to the properties, and estimated discounted future net cash flows from the properties. Estimated discounted future net cash flows are based on discounted future net revenues associated with probable and possible reserves, risk adjusted as appropriate. Where it is not practicable to assess individually the amount of impairment of properties for which costs are not individually significant, such properties are grouped for purposes of assessing impairment. The amount of impairment assessed is deducted from the costs to be amortized, and reported as a period expense when the impairment is recognized. All unproved property costs as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 relate to the Nicaraguan Concessions. In assessing the unproved property costs for impairment, the Company takes into consideration various information including: (i) the terms of the Concessions, (ii) the status of the Company’s compliance with the Nicaraguan Concessions’ requirements, iii) (the ongoing evaluation of the seismic data, (iv) the commodity prices for oil and gas products, (v) the overall environment related to oil and gas exploration and development projects for unproven targets in unproven regions of the world, (vi) the availability of financing for financial and strategic partners, and (vii) other factors that would impact the viability of a significant long-term oil and gas exploration and development project.

 9

The current environment for oil and gas development projects, especially discoveries in otherwise undeveloped regions of the world, is very challenging given the depressed commodity prices for oil and gas products and the resulting industry-wide reduction in capital expenditure budgets for exploration and development projects. These are substantial impediments for the Company to obtain adequate financing to fund the exploration and development of its Nicaraguan projects. The Company has performed its impairment tests as of December 31, 2015 and has concluded that a full impairment reserve should be provided on the costs capitalized for the Nicaraguan Concessions oil and gas properties. All costs related to the Nicaraguan Concessions from December 31, 2015 through September 30, 2016 have been charged to operating expenses as incurred.

Concentrations

The Company’s business plan consists of developing the Nicaraguan Concessions and it expects to be active in Nicaragua for the foreseeable future, given sufficient capital. The political climate in Nicaragua could become unstable and subject to radical change over a short period of time. In the event of a significant negative change in political and economic stability in the vicinity of the Nicaraguan Concessions or of the inability of the Company to obtain sufficient financing, the Company might be forced to abandon or suspend its efforts and its rights under its Nicaraguan Concessions.

Derivative Instruments

The Company accounts for derivative instruments or hedging activities under the provisions of ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging. ASC 815 requires the Company to record derivative instruments at their fair value. If the derivative is designated as a fair value hedge, the changes in the fair value of the derivative and of the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in earnings. If the derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge, the effective portions of changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and are recognized in the statement of operations when the hedged item affects earnings. Ineffective portions of changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges, if any, are recognized in earnings. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that do not qualify for hedge treatment are recognized in earnings.

The purpose of hedging is to provide a measure of stability to the Company’s cash flows in an environment of volatile oil and gas prices and to manage the exposure to commodity price risk. As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 and during the periods then ended, the Company had no oil and natural gas derivative arrangements outstanding.

As a result of certain terms, conditions and features included in certain common stock purchase warrants issued by the Company (Notes 2, 3 and 6), those warrants are required to be accounted for as derivatives at estimated fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in operations.

Income Taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. This method requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between financial accounting bases and tax bases of assets and liabilities. The tax benefits of tax loss carryforwards and other deferred taxes are recorded as an asset to the extent that management assesses the utilization of such assets to be more likely than not. Management routinely assesses the realizability of the Company’s deferred income tax assets, and a valuation allowance is recognized if it is determined that deferred income tax assets may not be fully utilized in future periods. Management considers future taxable earnings in making such assessments. Numerous judgments and assumptions are inherent in the determination of future taxable earnings, including such factors as future operating conditions. When the future utilization of some portion of the deferred tax asset is determined not to be more likely than not, a valuation allowance is provided to reduce the recorded deferred tax asset. When the Company can project that a portion of the deferred tax asset can be realized through application of a portion of tax loss carryforward, the Company will record that utilization as a deferred tax benefit and recognize a deferred tax asset in the same amount. There can be no assurance that facts and circumstances will not materially change and require the Company to adjust its deferred income tax asset valuation allowance in a future period. The Company recognized a deferred tax asset, net of valuation allowance, of $-0- at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

The Company is potentially subject to taxation in many jurisdictions, and the calculation of income tax liabilities (if any) involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex income tax laws and regulations in various taxing jurisdictions. It recognizes certain income tax positions that meet a more-likely-than not recognition threshold. If the Company ultimately determines that the payment of these liabilities will be unnecessary, it will reverse the liability and recognize an income tax benefit. No liability for unrecognized tax benefit was recorded as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

Asset Retirement Obligations

The Company records estimated future asset retirement obligations pursuant to the provisions of ASC 410. ASC 410 requires entities to record the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it is incurred with a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. Subsequent to initial measurement, the asset retirement liability is required to be accreted each period. The Company’s asset retirement obligations consist of costs related to the plugging of wells, the removal of facilities and equipment, and site restoration on oil and gas properties. Capitalized costs are depleted as a component of the full cost pool using the units of production method. Although the Company had divested all of its domestic oil properties that contain operating and abandoned wells as of September 30, 2016, the Company may have obligations related to the divestiture of certain abandoned non-producing domestic leasehold properties should the new owner not perform its obligations to reclaim abandoned wells in a timely manner. Management believes the Company has been relieved from asset retirement obligation related to Infinity-Texas because of the sale of its Texas oil and gas properties in 2011 and its sale of 100% of the stock in Infinity-Texas in 2012. The Company has recognized an additional liability of $734,897 related to its former Texas oil and gas producing properties (included in asset retirement obligations) to recognize the potential personal liability of the Company and its officers for the Infinity-Texas oil and gas properties should the new owner not perform its obligations to reclaim abandoned wells in a timely manner. In addition, management believes the Company has been relieved from asset retirement obligations related to Infinity-Wyoming because of the sale of its Wyoming and Colorado oil and gas properties in 2008; however, the Company has recognized an additional liability of $981,106 related to its former Wyoming and Colorado oil and gas producing properties (included in asset retirement obligations) to recognize the potential liability of the Company and its officers should the new owner not perform its obligations to reclaim abandoned wells in a timely manner.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying values of the Company’s accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and short term notes represent the estimated fair value due to the short-term nature of the accounts.

The carrying value of the Company’s debt under its line-of-credit with related party represents its estimated fair value due to its short-term nature, its rate of interest, associated fees and expenses and initially recorded discount.

In accordance with ASC Topic 820 — Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), the Company utilizes the market approach to measure fair value for its financial assets and liabilities. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets, liabilities or a group of assets or liabilities, such as a business.

ASC 820 utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:

● Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

● Level 2 — Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities).

● Level 3 — Significant unobservable inputs (including the Company’s own assumptions in determining the fair value.

 11

The estimated fair value of the Company’s Note and various derivative liabilities, which are related to detachable warrants issued in connection with various notes payable, were estimated using a closed-ended option pricing model utilizing assumptions related to the contractual term of the instruments, estimated volatility of the price of the Company’s common stock, interest rates, the probability of both the downward adjustment of the exercise price and the upward adjustment to the number of warrants as provided by the warrant agreement terms and non-performance risk factors, among other items. The fair values for the warrant derivatives as of and September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 were classified under the fair value hierarchy as Level 3.

The following table represents the Company’s hierarchy for its financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015:

September 30, 2016	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Liabilities:
Secured convertible note payable	$	—	$	—	$	148,480	$	148,480
Derivative liabilities		—		—		43,404		43,404
	$	—	$	—	$	191,884	$	191,884

December 31, 2015	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Liabilities:
Secured convertible note payable	$	—	$	—	$	265,929	$	265,929
Derivative liabilities		—		—		210,383		210,383
	$	—	$	—	$	476,312	$	476,312

There were no changes in valuation techniques or reclassifications of fair value measurements between Levels 1, 2 or 3 during the periods ended September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

Net Income (Loss) per Share

Pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share, basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Common share equivalents included in the diluted computation represent shares issuable upon assumed exercise of stock options and warrants using the treasury stock and “if converted” method. For periods in which net losses are incurred, weighted average shares outstanding is the same for basic and diluted loss per share calculations, as the inclusion of common share equivalents would have an anti-dilutive effect.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the prior period were reclassified to conform to the current period’s financial statement presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported net loss or accumulated deficit.

Note 2 – Secured Convertible Note Payable

Secured Convertible Note (the “Note) payable consists of the following at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015:

On May 7, 2015, the Company completed the May 2015 Private Placement of a $12.0 million principal amount secured convertible note (the “Note”) and Warrant to purchase 1,800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value. The placement agent for the Company in the transaction will receive a fee of 6% of cash proceeds, or $600,000, if and when the Company receives the full cash proceeds. It received $27,000 of such amount at the closing. In addition, the placement agent was granted a warrant to purchase 240,000 shares of common stock at $5.00 per share, which warrant is immediately exercisable.

The Note and Warrant were issued pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated May 7, 2015, by and between the Company and the Investor. The May 2015 Private Placement was made pursuant to an exemption from registration under such Act. At the closing, the Investor acquired the secured convertible note by paying $450,000 in cash and issuing a secured promissory note, secured by cash, with an aggregate initial principal amount of $9,550,000 (the “Investor Note”). Assuming all amounts payable to the Company under the Investor Note are paid without any offset or default, the May 2015 Private Placement will result in gross proceeds of $10.0 million before placement agent fees and other expenses associated with the transaction, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. The Company used the proceeds from this offering to retire certain outstanding obligations, including the 2015 area and training fees relating to its Nicaraguan Concessions, and to provide working capital. As of September 30, 2016, an additional $60,000 was funded under the Investor Note for a total of $510,000 advanced to the Company prior to any repayments.

The Company is to receive the remaining cash proceeds upon each voluntary or mandatory prepayment of the Investor Note. An Investor may, at its option and at any time, voluntarily prepay the Investor Note, in whole or in part. The Investor Note is also subject to mandatory prepayment, in whole or in part, upon the occurrence of one or more of the following mandatory prepayment events:

(1) Mandatory Prepayment upon Conversion – At any time the Investor has converted more than $2.0 million principal amount of the Note, representing the original issue discount of the Note, the Investor will be required to prepay the Investor Note, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, for each subsequent conversion of the Note.

 13

(2) Mandatory Prepayment upon Mandatory Prepayment Notices – The Company may require the Investor to prepay the Investor Note by delivering a mandatory prepayment notice to the Investor, subject to (i) the satisfaction of certain equity conditions, (ii) the Company’s receipt of all Governmental Authorizations, as defined in the Purchase Agreement, necessary to commence drilling on at least five Properties, also as defined in the Purchase Agreement, within the Nicaraguan Concessions, and (iii) the Company obtaining forbearance agreements from certain third parties to whom the Company owes obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may not request a mandatory prepayment if after giving effect to such proposed mandatory prepayment, the Company would hold more than $4.0 million in cash or if prepayment under the Investor Note for the preceding sixty calendar day period would exceed $2.0 million.

The Investor Note also contains certain offset rights, which if executed, would reduce the amount outstanding under the Note and the Investor Note and the cash proceeds received by the Company.

Description of the Secured Convertible Note

The Note is secured to the Company’s existing and future indebtedness and is secured by all of the assets of the Company, excluding the Nicaraguan Concessions, and to the extent and as provided in the related security documents.

The Note is convertible at any time at the option of the holder into shares of the Company’s common stock at $5.00 per share (the “Conversion Price”). The Note matures on the three-year anniversary of the issuance date thereof. If the Company issues or sells shares of its common stock, rights to purchase shares of its common stock, or securities convertible into shares of its common stock for a price per share that is less than the Conversion Price then in effect, the then current Conversion Price will be decreased to equal such lower price. The foregoing adjustments to the Conversion Price for future stock issues will not apply to certain exempt issuances, including issuances pursuant to certain employee benefit plans. In addition, the Conversion Price is subject to adjustment upon stock splits, reverse stock splits, and similar capital changes.

On the first business day of each month beginning on the earlier of the (i) effectiveness of a registration statement the Company files to register the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Note or exercise of the Warrant, as defined below, or (ii) sixth month following the date of the Note through and including the maturity date (the “Installment Dates”), the Company will pay to the Note holder an amount equal to (i) one-thirtieth (1/30th) of the original principal amount of the Note (or the principal outstanding on the Installment Date, if less) plus (ii) the accrued and unpaid interest with respect to such principal plus (iii) the accrued and unpaid late charges (if any) with respect to such principal and interest. The Investor has the ability to defer or accelerate such monthly payments in its sole discretion.

Prior to the maturity date, the Note will bear interest at 8% per annum (or 18% per annum during an event of default) with interest payable in cash or in shares of Common Stock monthly in arrears on the first business day of each calendar month following the issuance date.

Each monthly payment may be made in cash, in shares of the Company’s common stock, or in a combination of cash and shares of its common stock. The Company’s ability to make such payments with shares of its common stock will be subject to various equity conditions, including the existence of an effective registration statement covering the resale of the shares issued in payment (or, in the alternative, the eligibility of the shares issuable pursuant to the Note and the Warrant, as defined below, for sale without restriction under Rule 144 and without the need for the Company to remain current with its public filing obligations) and certain minimum trading price and trading volume. Such shares will be valued, as of the date on which notice is given by the Company that payment will be made in shares, at the lower of (1) the then applicable Conversion Price and (2) a price that is 80.0% of the arithmetic average of the three lowest weighted average prices of the Company’s common stock during the twenty-trading day period ending two trading days before the applicable determination date (the “Measurement Period”). If the Company elects to pay such monthly payment in shares of the Company’s stock it is required to pre-deliver shares of the Company’s common stock and is required to deliver additional shares, if any, to a true-up such number of shares to the number of shares required to be delivered on the applicable Installment Date pursuant to the calculation above.

 14

At any time after the issuance date, the Company will have the right to redeem all or any portion of the outstanding principal balance of the Note plus all accrued but unpaid interest and any other charges at a price equal to 125% of such amount provided that (i) the arithmetic average of the closing sale price of the common stock for any twenty (20) consecutive Trading Days equals or exceeds 200% of the Conversion Price and (ii) among other conditions, there is an effective registration statement covering the resale of the shares issued in payment or, in the alternative, the eligibility of the shares issuable pursuant to the Note and the Warrant for sale without restriction under Rule 144 and without the need for the Company to remain current with its public filing obligations. The Investor has the right to convert any or all of the amount to be redeemed into common stock prior to redemption.

Upon the occurrence of an event of default under the Note, the Investor may, so long as the event of default is continuing, require the Company to redeem all or a portion of its Note. Each portion of the Note subject to such redemption must be redeemed by the Company, in cash, at a price equal to the greater of (1) 125% of the amount being redeemed, including principal, accrued and unpaid interest, and accrued and unpaid late charges, and (2) the product of (I) the amount being redeemed and (II) the quotient determined by dividing (A) the greatest closing sale price of the shares of common stock during the period beginning on the date immediately preceding the event of default and ending on the date the holder delivers a redemption notice to the Company, by (B) the lowest Conversion Price in effect during such period.

Subject to certain conditions, the Investor may also require the Company to redeem all or a portion of its Note in connection with a transaction that results in a Change of Control, as defined in the Note. The Company must redeem each portion of the Note subject to such redemption in cash at a price equal to the greater of (1) 125% of the amount being redeemed (including principal, accrued and unpaid interest, and accrued and unpaid late charges), and (2) the product of (I) the amount being redeemed and (II) the quotient determined by dividing (A) the greatest closing sale price of the shares of common stock during the period beginning on the date immediately preceding the earlier to occur of (i) the consummation of the Change of Control and (ii) the public announcement of such Change of Control and ending on the date the holder delivers a redemption notice to the Company, by (B) the lowest Conversion Price in effect during such period.

Description of the Warrant.

As a part of the May 2015 Private Placement, the Company issued a Warrant to the Investor giving it the right to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share. The Warrant is exercisable commencing six months from the date of issuance and the exercise prices for the Warrant is subject to adjustment for certain events, such as stock splits and stock dividends. If the Company issues or sells shares of its common stock, rights to purchase shares of its common stock, or securities convertible into shares of its common stock for a price per share that is less than the exercise price then in effect, the exercise price of the Warrant will be decreased to equal such lesser price. Upon each such adjustment, the number of the shares of the Company’s common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant will increase proportionately. The foregoing adjustments to the exercise price for future stock issues will not apply to certain exempt issuances, including issuances pursuant to certain employee benefit plans. In addition, the Conversion Price is subject to adjustment upon stock splits, reverse stock splits, and similar capital changes. The Warrant will expire on the seventh (7th) anniversary of the date of issuance.

9.99% Restriction on Conversion of Note and Exercise of Warrant

The Investor has no right to convert the Note or exercise the Warrant to the extent that such conversion or exercise would result in the Investor being the beneficial owner in excess of 9.99% of the Company’s common stock. The Company was required to hold a meeting of its shareholders to approve increase the number of its authorized shares to meet its obligations under the Purchase Agreement to have reserved 200% of the shares issuable upon conversion of the Note and exercise of the Warrant. The Company held its Annual Meeting of Shareholders on September 25, 2015 and the shareholders approved the reverse split of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding shares, which satisfied this requirement.

 15

Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with the May 2015 Private Placement, the Company and the Investor entered into a Registration Rights Agreement under which the Company is required, on or before 45 days after the closing of the May 2015 Private Placement, to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) covering the resale of 130% of the shares of the Company’s common stock issuable pursuant to the Note and Warrant and to use its best efforts to have the registration declared effective as soon as practicable. The Company will be subject to certain monetary penalties, as set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement, if the registration statement is not filed or does not remain available for the resale (subject to certain allowable grace periods) of the Registrable Securities, as such term is defined in the Registration Rights Agreement. The Company filed the required registration statement on Form S-1 on June 19, 2015 and the Securities and Exchange Commission declared the Form S-1 effective on October 9, 2015 and has thereby satisfied this requirement.

Participation Rights

If, during the period beginning on the closing date and ending on the four (4) year anniversary of the closing date, the Company offers, sells, grants any option to purchase, or otherwise disposes of any of its or its subsidiaries’ equity or equity equivalent securities (a “Subsequent Placement”), the Investor will have the right to participate for 50% of any such future Subsequent Placement.

Description of the Financial Accounting and Reporting

The Company elected to account for the Note on its fair value basis, therefore, the fair value of the Note, including its embedded conversion feature, were estimated together utilizing a binomial lattice model on its origination date and the Black-Sholes model at September 30, 2016. Such assumptions included the following:

	Upon Issuance			As of September 30, 2016
Volatility – range		102.6	%		228.8	%
Risk-free rate		1.00	%		0.88	%
Contractual term		3.0 years			1.6 years
Conversion price	$	5.00		$	5.00
Par value of note	$	540,000		$	155,952

The Company received $450,000 of proceeds at the date of issuance and after repayments and additional funding the net principal balance was $129,960 as of September 30, 2016. The fair market value of the Note was estimated to be $682,400 as of the issuance date, $265,929 at December 31, 2015 and $148,480 as of September 30, 2016. The net $67,591 change in fair market value of the Note is included in change in fair value of secured notes payable in the accompanying statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

The Warrant issued to purchase 1,800,000 common shares in connection with the Note was treated as a derivative liability for accounting purposes due to its ratchet and anti-dilution provisions. Accordingly, the Company has estimated the fair value of the warrant derivative as of the issuance date of the Note was issued at $8,034,007, which has been charged to non-operating expense during the year ended December 31, 2015. The estimated fair value of the warrant derivative as of September 30, 2016 was $37,102, representing a change of $145,415 from December 31, 2015, which is included in changes in derivative fair value in the accompanying statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. See Note 6.

The warrant issued to purchase 240,000 shares issued as part of the placement fee in connection with the Note was treated as a derivative liability for accounting purposes due to its ratchet and anti-dilution provisions. Changes in the fair value of the warrant derivative liability totaled $19,389 (reduction in the derivative liability) through September 30, 2016, which is included in changes in derivative fair value in the accompanying statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The warrant derivative liability balance related to such warrants was $4,947 and $24,336 as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. See Note 6.

 16

The Company is required to make monthly installment payments in the form of cash, common stock or a combination of both. The Holder has suspended such installments during the third quarter 2016. The Company elected to make such monthly payments in the form of common stock and has delivered a total of 4,281,477 shares of common stock representing required principal repayments ($220,040 principal balances) and 305,522 representing interest payments ($11,779 interest payments) during the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

Note 3 – Debt

Debt consists of the following at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015:

	September 30, 2016		December 31, 2015
Line-of-credit with related party, net of unamortized discount of $198 and $420, of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively	$	68,105	$	67,883

Total notes payable, short-term	$	1,084,985	$	1,033,973

Line-of-Credit with Related Party

The Company entered into a line-of-credit facility on September 23, 2013 that provides it with borrowing capacity on a revolving basis up to a maximum of $50,000, which was increased to $75,000 at August 28, 2015 and an initial maturity of November 28, 2013. The line of credit is convertible to common stock at a rate of $5.00 per share. The entity providing the credit facility is owned by an officer of another corporation for which Infinity’s president and chairman of the board serves as president and chairman of the board. The facility is unsecured, bears interest at 8% per annum, and was renewed at its maturity several times with its current maturity date as November 28, 2016. In consideration for the origination of the line of credit facility and the various renewals, the Company granted the lender common stock purchase warrants. The most recent renewal was on August 28, 2016 whereby the Company extended the line-of-credit expiration date to November 28, 2016 and issued a warrant to purchase 10,000 common shares at an exercise price of $5.00 per share, which warrants were immediately exercisable and expire on August 28, 2021. The Company estimated the fair value of the warrants at $308 as of the August 28, 2016 grant date, which amount was recorded as debt issuance costs and will be amortized to interest expense over the extended term of the line-of-credit.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, $1,434 and $269,683, respectively, of debt issuance costs amortized (including amounts immediately expensed) to interest expense and the remaining unamortized balance was $198 as of September 30, 2016, which is reflected as a discount on the outstanding loan balance.

Note Payable – Short-term

On December 27, 2013 the Company borrowed $1,050,000 under an unsecured credit facility with a private, third-party lender. The facility is represented by a promissory note (the “December 2013 Note”) with an original maturity date of March 12, 2014.

In connection with the December 2013 Note, the Company granted the lender a warrant (the “Warrant”) exercisable to purchase 100,000 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $15.00 per share. In connection with an extension to April 2015, the parties amended the date for exercise of the Warrant to be a period commencing April 7, 2015 and expiring on the third anniversary of such date. The Company issued no additional warrants to the lender in connection with the extension of the Note to the New Maturity Date. If the Company fails to pay the Note on or before its New Maturity Date, the number of shares issuable under the Warrant increases to 1,333,333 and the exercise price drops to $0.75 per share. All other terms of the Warrant remain the same. The Warrant has been treated as a derivative liability whereby the value of Warrant is estimated at the date of grant and recorded as a derivative liability and as a discount on the note payable. The warrant liability is revalued to fair value at each reporting date with the corresponding income (loss) reflected in the statement of operations as change in derivative liability. The discount is amortized ratably through the original maturity date and each of the extended maturity dates.

 17

In connection with an extension of the December 2013 Note to April 7, 2016, the Company agreed to enter into a definitive revenue sharing agreement with the lender to grant the lender under the revenue sharing agreement an irrevocable right to receive a monthly payment equal to one half of one percent (1/2%) of the gross revenue derived from the share of all hydrocarbons produced at the wellhead from the Nicaraguan Concessions and any other oil and gas concessions that the Company and its affiliates may acquire in the future. This percent increased to one percent (1%) when the Company did not pay the December 2013 Note in full by August 7, 2014. Therefore, the revenue sharing agreement is fixed at one percent (1%). The value of the one percent (1.0%) definitive revenue sharing agreement granted to the lender as consideration for the extension of the maturity date to December 7, 2014 was estimated to be $964,738. Such amount was recorded as a reduction of oil and gas properties and as a discount on the renewed note payable and amortized ratably over the extended term of the note.

In connection with the extension of the maturity date of the December 2013 Note to April 7, 2016, the Company also (i) issued the lender 20,000 shares of restricted common stock; (ii) decreased the exercise price of the warrant to $5.00 per share and extended the term of the warrant to a period commencing on the New Maturity Date and expiring on the third anniversary of such date; and (iii) paid $50,000 toward amounts due under the December 2013 Note. The Company issued no additional warrants to the lender in connection with the extension of the Note to the New Maturity Date. If the Company fails to pay the December 2013 Note on or before its New Maturity Date, the number of shares issuable under the Warrant increases to 1,333,333 and the exercise price drops to $0.75 per share. All other terms of the warrant remain the same. The December 2013 Note may be prepaid without penalty at any time. The Note is subordinated to all existing and future senior indebtedness, as such terms are defined in the Note. The December 2013 Note is in technical default and the Company is seeking an extension of the maturity date of this Note (See Note 11) from the holder; however, there can be no assurances such efforts will be successful.

The Warrant has been treated as a derivative liability whereby the value of Warrant is estimated at the date of grant and recorded as a derivative liability and as a discount on the note payable. The warrant liability is revalued to fair value at each reporting date with the corresponding income (loss) reflected in the statement of operations as change in derivative liability. The discount is amortized ratably through the original maturity date and each of the extended maturity dates. The Company recognized the value of the 20,000 shares of common stock issued ($104,000) and the increased value of the outstanding warrants due to the decrease in their exercise price ($68,716) as an additional discount on the note payable to be amortized ratably over the extended term of the underlying note.

The discount recorded as of the December 27, 2013 origination date of the note and as a result of the amendments to the Note terms and extensions of the maturity date has been amortized ratably over the term and extended terms of the note. Discount amortization expense aggregated $50,526 and $68,336 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and the remaining unamortized discount was $-0- as of September 30, 2016. The related warrant derivative liability balance was $745 at fair value as of September 30, 2016. See Note 6.

Other than the Note described above, during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 the Company had short-term notes outstanding with entities or individuals as follows:

 18

● On July 7, 2015 the Company borrowed a total of $50,000 from an individual under a convertible note payable with the conversion rate of $5.60 per share. The term of the note was for a period of 90 days and bears interest at 8% per annum. In connection with the loan, the Company issued the entity a warrant for the purchase of 5,000 shares of common stock at $5.60 per share for a period of five years from the date of the note. The terms of the note and warrant provide that should the note and interest not be paid in full by its maturity date, the number of warrants automatically increases to 10,000 shares and the exercise price remains at $5.60 per share. The ratchet provision in the stock purchase warrant requires that the warrant be accounted for as derivative liability. The Company recorded the estimated fair value of the warrant totaling $22,314 as a discount on note payable and as a derivative liability in the same amount, as of the origination date. On October 7, 2015, the note was extended for an additional 90 days or until January 7, 2016 and later to May 7, 2016 and ultimately to October 7, 2016. The Company is currently pursuing an additional extension from the Holder. In consideration, the Company granted the lender common stock purchase warrants exercisable to purchase 5,000 shares of common stock on each extension date at an exercise price of $5.60 per share, which warrants were immediately exercisable and expire in five years. The value of the 5,000 newly issued warrants issued on January 7, 2016 totaled $379, and $131 on May 7, 2016 both of which are being amortized over the extension period (through October 7, 2016). Discount amortization totaled $765 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and the remaining unamortized discount was $7 as of September 30, 2016. The related warrant derivative liability balance was $359 at fair value as of September 30, 2016. See Note 6.

● On July 15, 2015 the Company borrowed a total of $35,000 from an individual under a convertible note payable with the conversion rate of $5.60 per share. The term of the note was for a period of 90 days and bears interest at 8% per annum. In connection with the loan, the Company issued the entity a warrant for the purchase of 3,500 shares of common stock at $5.60 per share for a period of five years from the date of the note. The terms of the note and warrant provide that should the note and interest not be paid in full by its maturity date, the number of warrants automatically increases to 7,000 shares and the exercise price remains at $5.60 per share. The ratchet provision in the stock purchase warrant requires that the warrant be accounted for as a derivative liability. The Company recorded the estimated fair value of the warrant totaling $11,827 as a discount on note payable and as a derivative liability in the same amount, as of the origination date. On October 15, 2015, the note was extended for an additional 90 days or until January 15, 2016 and later to October 15, 2016. The Company is currently pursuing an additional extension from the Holder. In consideration, the Company granted the lender common stock purchase warrants exercisable to purchase an aggregate of 3,500 shares of common stock on each extension date at an exercise price of $5.60 per share, which warrants were immediately exercisable and expire in five years. The value of the 3,500 newly issued warrants on January 15, 2016 totaled $267 and $74 on May 15, 2016, both of which are being amortized over the extension period (through October 15, 2016). Discount amortization totaled $571 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and the remaining unamortized discount was $8 as of September 30, 2016. The related warrant derivative liability balance was $251 at fair value as of September 30, 2016. See Note 6.

Note 4 – Common Stock

The Company has delivered a total of 4,281,477 shares of common stock representing required principal repayments ($220,040 principal balances) and 305,522 representing interest payments ($11,780 interest payments) during the nine months ended September 30, 2016. See Note 2 – Secured Convertible Note Payable.

Note 5 – Stock Options

The Company applies ASC 718, Stock Compensation, which requires companies to recognize compensation expense for share-based payments based on the estimated fair value of the awards. ASC 718 also requires tax benefits relating to the deductibility of increases in the value of equity instruments issued under share-based compensation arrangements to be presented as financing cash inflows in the statement of cash flows. Compensation cost is recognized based on the grant-date fair value for all share-based payments granted, and is estimated in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718.

In May 2006, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2006 Plan”), under which both incentive and non-statutory stock options may be granted to employees, officers, non-employee directors and consultants. An aggregate of 47,000 shares of the Company’s common stock are reserved for issuance under the 2006 Plan. In June 2005, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2005 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2005 Plan”), under which both incentive and non-statutory stock options may be granted to employees, officers, non-employee directors and consultants. An aggregate of 47,500 shares of the Company’s common stock were reserved for issuance under the 2005 and 2006 Plans however such Plans have now expired and no further issuances can be made. Options granted under the 2005 Plan and 2006 Plan allow for the purchase of common stock at prices not less than the fair market value of such stock at the date of grant, become exercisable immediately or as directed by the Company’s Board of Directors and generally expire ten years after the date of grant. The Company also has issued other stock options not pursuant to a formal plan with terms similar to the 2005 and 2006 Plans.

 19

The Annual Meeting of Stockholders was held on September 25, 2015 and the stockholders approved the Infinity Energy Resources, Inc. 2015 Stock Option and Restricted Stock Plan (the “2015 Plan”) and reserved 500,000 shares for issuance under the Plan.

As of September 30, 2016, 500,000 shares were available for future grants under the 2015 Plan as all other Plans have now expired.

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected term of the option award, expected stock price volatility and expected dividends. These estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management judgment. For purposes of estimating the expected term of options granted, the Company aggregates option recipients into groups that have similar option exercise behavioral traits. Expected volatilities used in the valuation model are based on the expected volatility that would be used by an independent market participant in the valuation of certain of the Company’s warrants. The risk-free rate for the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The Company’s forfeiture rate assumption used in determining its stock-based compensation expense is estimated based on historical data. The actual forfeiture rate could differ from these estimates. There were no stock options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

The following table summarizes stock option activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2016:

	Number of Options			Weighted Average Exercise Price Per Share			Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term		Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding at December 31, 2015		411,450		$	38.04			4.8 years	$	—
Granted		—			—
Exercised		—			—
Forfeited		(8,000	)		(64.80	)
Outstanding at September 30, 2016		403,450		$	37.51			4.8 years	$	—
Outstanding and exercisable at September 30, 2016		403,450		$	37.51			4.8 years	$	—

The Company recorded stock-based compensation expense in connection with the vesting of options granted aggregating $7,598 and $100,972 during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

The unrecognized compensation cost as of September 30, 2016 related to the unvested stock options as of that date was $-0-.

Note 6 – Derivative Instruments

Derivatives – Warrants Issued Relative to Notes Payable

The estimated fair value of the Company’s derivative liabilities, all of which are related to the detachable warrants issued in connection with various notes payable and the secured convertible note, were estimated using a closed-ended option pricing model utilizing assumptions related to the contractual term of the instruments, estimated volatility of the price of the Company’s common stock, interest rates, the probability of both the downward adjustment of the exercise price and the upward adjustment to the number of warrants as provided by the note payable and warrant agreement terms (Note 2 and 3) and non-performance risk factors, among other items (ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements (“ASC 820”) fair value hierarchy Level 3). The detachable warrants issued in connection with the secured convertible note (See Note 2), the December 2013 Note (See Note 3) and the two other short-term notes payable (See Note 3) contain ratchet and anti-dilution provisions that remain in effect during the term of the warrant while the ratchet and anti-dilution provisions of the other notes payable cease when the related note payable is extinguished. When the note payable containing such ratchet and anti-dilution provisions is extinguished, the derivative liability will be adjusted to fair value and the resulting derivative liability will be transitioned from a liability to equity as of such date. The derivative liability associated with the warrants issued in connection with the secured convertible note payable will remain effect until such time as the underlying warrant is exercised or terminated and the resulting derivative liability will be transitioned from a liability to equity as of such date.

 20

The Company has issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,174,000 common shares in connection with various outstanding debt instruments which require derivative accounting treatment as of September 30, 2016. A comparison of the assumptions used in calculating estimated fair value of such derivative liabilities as of September 30, 2016 is as follows:

	As of September 30, 2016
Volatility – range		169.6% - 226.1 %
Risk-free rate		0.88% - 1.42 %
Contractual term		1.58 - 5.58 years
Exercise price		$5.00 - $5.60
Number of warrants in aggregate		2,174,000

The following table provides a summary of the changes in fair value, including net transfers in and/or out, of the derivative financial instruments, measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs for both open and closed derivatives:

	Amount
Balance at December 31, 2015	$	210,383
Warrants issued to originate or extend notes payable (recorded as discount on note payable) -Note 3		851
Unrealized derivative gains included in other expense for the period		(167,830	)
Transition of derivative liability to equity		—
Balance at September 30, 2016	$	43,404

The warrant derivative liability consists of the following at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015:

Note 7 – Warrants

The following table summarizes warrant activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2016:

	Number of Warrants			Weighted Average Exercise Price Per Share
Outstanding and exercisable at December 31, 2015		2,475,771		$	5.34

 21

The weighted average term of all outstanding common stock purchase warrants was 5.1 years as of September 30, 2016. The intrinsic value of all outstanding common stock purchase warrants and the intrinsic value of all vested common stock purchase warrants was zero as of September 30, 2016.

Note 8 – Income Taxes

For income tax purposes, the Company has net operating loss carry-forwards of approximately $66,185,000 as of December 31, 2015, which expire from 2025 through 2030. The Company has provided a 100% valuation allowance due to the uncertainty of realizing the tax benefits from its net deferred tax asset.

The Company has not completed the filing of tax returns for the tax years 2012 through 2015. Therefore, all such tax returns are open to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

The Internal Revenue Code contains provisions under Section 382 which limit a company’s ability to utilize net operating loss carry-forwards in the event that it has experienced a more than 50% change in ownership over a three-year period. Current estimates prepared by the Company on a preliminary basis indicate that no ownership changes have occurred, and are currently not subject to an annual limitation, but may be further limited by additional ownership changes which may occur in the future.

Note 9 – Commitments and Contingencies

The Company has not maintained insurance coverage on its U.S domestic oil and gas properties for several years. The Company is not in compliance with Federal and State laws regarding the U.S. domestic oil and gas properties. The Company’s known compliance issues relate to the Texas Railroad Commission regarding administrative filings and renewal permits relative to its Texas oil and gas properties that were sold in 2012. The ultimate resolution of these compliance issues could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Nicaraguan Concessions

In April 2011, we filed with the Nicaraguan government an Environmental Impact Assessment (“EIA”) covering proposed seismic activities on our Nicaraguan Concessions. The filing of the EIA was followed by a comment period during which there was interaction between us the Ministerio del Ambiente y los Recursos Naturales de Nicaragua, an agency of the Nicaraguan government; and the autonomous regions of Nicaragua that are nearest to the Nicaraguan Concessions. In April 2013 the EIA was formally approved by the Nicaraguan government and we were cleared to commence 2-D and 3-D seismic mapping activities in the area. In late 2013 and early 2014, we contracted with a fully integrated Geoscience company that provides geological, geophysical and reservoir services to the global oil and gas industry, to conduct 2-D and 3-D seismic data covering selected areas within the boundaries of the Nicaraguan Concessions.

The final approval of the EIA by the Nicaraguan government of our environment impact study on April 13, 2013, began Sub-Period 2 for both the Tyra and Perlas Blocks as defined in the Nicaraguan Concessions. The Company believes it has satisfied the acquisition, processing and interpretation of Seismic data required in Sub-Period 2 for both the Perlas and Tyra Blocks. Therefore, it is now in Sub-Period 3 of the exploration phase of the 30-year Concession for both Perlas and Tyra as of September 30, 2015. Sub-Period 3 of the Nicaraguan Concessions requires the drilling of at least one exploratory well on the Perlas Block during 2016 and the shooting of additional seismic on the Tyra Block. The Company plans to identify at least one potential drilling site on the Perlas block as required in Sub-Period 3 and will have to perform supplemental EIA work prior to requesting and receiving the permit to drill from the Nicaraguan government. The work plan on the Tyra block for Sub-Period 3 requires the Company to shoot additional seismic, which is estimated to cost approximately $2,500,000 prior to the commencement of exploratory drilling. The Company is seeking a waiver of the additional seismic mapping on the Tyra Block and extension of time to complete its initial well from the Nicaraguan government. There can be no assurance that it will be able to obtain such waiver of the requirements.

 22

During late December 2013, the Company completed the 2-D seismic survey activities in the area as required under both of the Nicaraguan Concessions at that point. It believes that the newly acquired 2-D seismic data, together with the previously acquired reprocessed 2-D seismic, has helped it further evaluate the structures that were previously identified with 2-D seismic in the Eocene Zone. The Company’s geological consultants have estimated that these Eocene structures may contain recoverable hydrocarbons (principally oil) in place. In addition, the new 2-D seismic acquired in 2013 provided the first geological information regarding the potential for oil resources in the Cretaceous Zone, which the Company could not evaluate using less precise older 2-D seismic mapping. It has identified multiple promising sites on the Perlas Block for exploratory drilling and will plan the drilling of initial exploratory wells in order to determine the existence of commercial hydrocarbon reserves, given sufficient financing. The Company believes that it has performed all work necessary as of September 30, 2015 to proceed to Sub-Period 3 for the Perlas Block as defined in the Nicaraguan Concessions, which requires the drilling of at least one exploratory well on the Perlas Block within the following one-year period. The Company must first prepare and submit a supplemental EIA to the Nicaraguan government before the drilling permit can be issued on the Perlas Block, which had not been completed as of September 30, 2016.

The Company has not yet submitted the EIA supplement to the Nicaraguan Government and therefore has not received a drilling permit; however, assuming that Government does accept the supplemental EIA and grant the drilling permit, the Company will be required to drill at least one exploratory well on the Perlas Block during 2016 or risk being in default and losing its rights under the Nicaraguan Concessions.

The Company is in technical default of the Nicaraguan Concession because it has not provided the required letters of credit to the Nicaraguan Government and is delinquent on the payment of approximately $155,567 for the annual training program and area fees for 2016 that remains unpaid and outstanding as of September 30, 2016. In accordance with the Nicaraguan Concession agreements, the Company had previously provided the Ministry of Energy with the required letters of credit in the amounts of $443,100 for Perlas (expired March 2014) and $408,450 for Tyra (expired September 2014). The Company had also made all required expenditures related to the Nicaraguan Concessions for training programs and as “area fees,” for each respective year for 2010 through 2015. However, approximately $155,567 was due and payable in March 2016 for 2016 training program and area fees that remains unpaid and outstanding as of September 30, 2016. The Company is attempting to negotiate the renewal and increase of the required letters of credit, which total $1,356,227 for the Perlas block and $278,450 for the Tyra block with the Nicaraguan Government and its lenders; however, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in the regard. The Nicaraguan Government is in an election year in 2016, therefore such efforts have been delayed until the election is over. The Company considers it is fully in compliance with the terms of the Nicaraguan Concessions agreements, except for the renewal of the expired letters of credit and the delinquent payment for the 2016 training program and area fees.

The Company must raise substantial amounts of debt and equity capital in the immediate future in order to fund: (1) the annual training program and area fees for 2016: (2) the required letters of credit to the Nicaraguan Government; (3) the drilling of at least one exploratory well on the Perlas Block of the Nicaraguan Concessions during 2016; (4) the shooting of additional seismic on the Tyra Block of the Nicaraguan Concessions if it is unable to negotiate a waiver of such requirement from the Nicaraguan government; (5) normal day-to-day operations and corporate overhead; and (6) outstanding debt and financial obligations as they become due. These are substantial operational and financial issues that must be successfully mitigated during 2016 or the Company’s ability to satisfy the conditions necessary to maintain its Nicaragua Concessions will be in significant doubt. The Company completed the May 2015 Private Placement in May 2015 in an effort to obtain its required capital. See Note 2 to the Financial Statements.

The Company is also seeking offers from industry operators and other third parties for interests in the acreage in the Nicaraguan Concessions in exchange for cash and a carried interest in exploration and development operations or other joint venture arrangement. Accordingly, it intends to finance its business strategy through external financing, which may include debt and equity capital raised in public and private offerings, joint ventures, sale of working or other interests, employment of working capital and cash flow from operations, if any, and net proceeds from the sales of assets.

Revenue Sharing Commitments

On March 23, 2009, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated effective as of March 23, 2009, with Offshore Finance, LLC, an accredited investor, to issue a subordinated promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of up to $1,275,000 and a one percent (1%) revenue sharing interest in the Nicaraguan Concessions. Off-Shore funded a total of $1,275,000 and subsequently converted the subordinated promissory note to common stock.

Under the Revenue Sharing Agreement (the “Revenue Agreement”), Infinity assigned to Off-Shore a monthly payment (the “RSP”) equal to the revenue derived from one percent (1%) of Infinity’s share of the hydrocarbons produced at the wellhead from the Nicaraguan Concessions. The RSP will bear its proportionate share of all costs incurred to deliver the hydrocarbons to the point of sale to an unaffiliated purchaser, including its share of production, severance and similar taxes, and certain additional costs. The RSP will be paid to Off-Shore by the last day of each month based on the revenue received by Infinity from the purchaser of the production during the previous month from the Nicaraguan Concessions. The Revenue Agreement does not create any obligation for Infinity to maintain or develop the Nicaraguan Concessions, and does not create any rights in the Nicaraguan Concessions for Off-Shore. In connection with its dissolution Off-Shore assigned its RSP to its individual members.

On June 6, 2009 the Company entered into a Revenue Sharing Agreement with the officers and directors for services provided. Infinity assigned to officers and directors a monthly payment equal to the revenue derived from one percent (1%) of Infinity’s share of the hydrocarbons produced at the wellhead from the Nicaraguan Concessions. The RSP will bear its proportionate share of all costs incurred to deliver the hydrocarbons to the point of sale to an unaffiliated purchaser, including its share of production, severance and similar taxes, and certain additional costs.

The RSP shall be paid by the last day of each month based on the revenue received by Infinity from the purchaser of the production during the previous month from the Nicaraguan Concessions. The Revenue Agreement does not create any obligation for Infinity to maintain or develop the Nicaraguan Concessions, and does not create any rights in the Nicaraguan Concessions for officers and directors.

The Company intends to seek joint venture or working interest partners (the “Farmout”) prior to the commencement of any exploratory drilling operations on the Nicaraguan Concessions. On September 8, 2009 the Company entered into a Revenue Sharing Agreement with Jeff Roberts to assist the Company with its technical studies of gas and oil holdings in Nicaragua and managing and assisting in the Farmout. Infinity assigned to Jeff Roberts a monthly payment equal to the revenue derived from one percent (1%) of Infinity’s share of the hydrocarbons produced at the wellhead from the Nicaraguan Concessions. The RSP will bear its proportionate share of all costs incurred to deliver the hydrocarbons to the point of sale to an unaffiliated purchaser, including its share of production, severance and similar taxes, and certain additional costs. The RSP shall be paid to Jeff Roberts by the last day of each month based on the revenue received by Infinity from the purchaser of the production during the previous month from the Nicaraguan Concessions. The Revenue Agreement does not create any obligation for Infinity to maintain or develop the Nicaraguan Concessions, and does not create any rights in the Nicaraguan Concessions for Jeff Roberts.

In connection with the extension of the December 2013 Note with a $1,050,000 principal balance issued in December 2013, the Company entered into a Revenue Sharing Agreement in May 2014. Infinity assigned to the note holder a monthly payment equal to the revenue derived from one percent (1%) of 8/8ths of Infinity’s share of the hydrocarbons produced at the wellhead from the Nicaraguan Concessions and any other oil and gas concessions that the Company and its affiliates may acquire in the future. The RSP will bear its proportionate share of all costs incurred to deliver the hydrocarbons to the point of sale to an unaffiliated purchaser, including its share of production, severance and similar taxes, and certain additional costs. The RSP shall be paid by the last day of each month based on the revenue received by Infinity from the purchaser of the production during the previous month from the Nicaraguan Concessions. The Revenue Sharing Agreement does not create any obligation for Infinity to maintain or develop the Nicaraguan Concessions.

Lack of Compliance with Law Regarding Domestic Properties

Infinity has not been in compliance with existing federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations for its previously owned domestic oil and gas properties and this could have a material or significantly adverse effect upon the liquidity, capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position of Infinity. All domestic oil and gas properties held by Infinity – Wyoming and Infinity-Texas were disposed of prior to September 30, 2016; however, the Company may remain liable for certain asset retirement costs should the new owners not complete their obligations. Management believes the total asset retirement obligations recorded of $1,716,003 as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 are sufficient to cover any potential noncompliance liabilities relative to the plugging of abandoned wells, the removal of facilities and equipment, and site restoration on oil and gas properties for its former oil and gas properties. The Company has not maintained insurance on the domestic properties for a number of years nor has it owned/produced any oil & gas properties for a number of years.

Gain on Derecognition of Liabilities

The Company has been generally unable to pay trade payables for several years as a result of its financial condition and lack of financial resources. Many trade payables have aged beyond their respective Statute of Limitations with respect to the creditors’ ability to enforce collection though legal proceedings. Management has reviewed the status of its trade payables and have written-off the remaining balances for those that have aged beyond the expiration date of their applicable statute of limitation. The gain from derecognition of liabilities was $1,134,082 and $174,457 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Litigation

The Company is subject to numerous claims and legal actions in which vendors are claiming breach of contract due to the Company’s failure to pay amounts due. The Company believes that it has made adequate provision for these claims in the accompanying financial statements.

The Company is currently involved in litigation as follows:

●	In October 2012 the State of Texas filed a lawsuit naming Infinity-Texas, the Company and the corporate officers of Infinity-Texas, seeking $30,000 of reclamation costs associated with a single well, in addition to administrative expenses and penalties. The Company engaged in negotiations with the State of Texas in late 2012 and early 2013 and reached a settlement agreement that would reduce the aggregate liability, in this action and any extension of this to other Texas wells, to $45,103, which amount has been paid. Certain performance obligations remain which must be satisfied in order to finally settle and dismiss the matter.
	Pending satisfactory performance of the performance obligations and their acceptance by the State of Texas, the officers have potential liability regarding the above matter, and the officers are held personally harmless by indemnification provisions of the Company. Therefore, to the extent they might actually occur, these liabilities are the obligations of the Company. Management estimates that the liabilities associated with this matter will not exceed $780,000, calculated as $30,000 for each of the 26 Infinity-Texas operated wells. This related liability, less the payment made to the State of Texas in 2012 in the amount of $45,103, is included in the asset retirement obligation on the accompanying balance sheets.

(“Cambrian”) filed an action in the District Court of Harris County, Texas, number CV2014-55719, on September 26, 2014 against Infinity Energy Resources, Inc. resulting from certain professional consulting services provided for quality control and management of seismic operations during November and December 2013 on the Nicaraguan Concessions. Cambrian provided these services pursuant to a Master Consulting Agreement with Infinity, dated November 20, 2013, and has claimed breach of contract for failure to pay amounts due. On December 8, 2014, a default judgment was entered against the Company in the amount of $96,877 plus interest and attorney fees. The Company has included the impact of this litigation as a liability in its accounts payable. The Company will seek to settle the default judgment when it has the financial resources to do so.
●	Torrey Hills Capital, Inc. (“Torrey”) notified the Company by letter, dated August 15, 2014, of its demand for the payment of $56,000, which it alleged was unpaid and owed under a consulting agreement, dated October 18, 2013. The parties entered into a consulting agreement under which Torrey agreed to provide investor relations services in exchange for payment of $7,000 per month and the issuance of 15,000 shares of common stock. The agreement was for an initial three month-term with automatic renewals unless terminated upon 30 days’ written notice by either party. The Company made payments totaling $14,000 and issued 15,000 shares of common stock during 2013. The Company contends that Torrey breached the agreement by not performing the required services and that it had provided proper notice of termination to Torrey. Furthermore, the Company contends that the parties agreed to settle the dispute on or about June 19, 2014 under which it would issue 2,800 shares of common stock in full settlement of any balance then owed and final termination of the agreement. Torrey disputed the Company’s contentions and submitted the dispute to binding arbitration. The Company was unable to defend itself and the arbitration panel awarded Torrey a total of $79,594 in damages. The Company has accrued amounts in accounts payable as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, which management believes is sufficient to provide for the ultimate resolution of this dispute.

Note 10 – Related Party Transactions

The Company does not have any employees other than the CEO and CFO. In previous years, certain general and administrative services (for which payment is deferred) had been provided by the CFO’s accounting firm at its standard billing rates plus out-of-pocket expenses consisting primarily of accounting, tax and other administrative fees. The Company no longer utilizes the CFO’s accounting firm for such support services and was not billed for any such services during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. The amount due to the CFO’s firm for services previously provided was $762,407 at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, and is included in accrued liabilities at both dates.

On June 6, 2009 the Company entered into a Revenue Sharing Agreement with the officers and directors for services provided. Infinity assigned to officers and directors a monthly payment equal to the revenue derived from one percent (1%) of Infinity’s share of the hydrocarbons produced at the wellhead from the Nicaraguan Concessions. The RSP will bear its proportionate share of all costs incurred to deliver the hydrocarbons to the point of sale to an unaffiliated purchaser, including its share of production, severance and similar taxes, and certain additional costs. The RSP shall be paid by the last day of each month based on the revenue received by Infinity from the purchaser of the production during the previous month from the Nicaraguan Concessions. The Revenue Agreement does not create any obligation for Infinity to maintain or develop the Nicaraguan Concessions and does not create any rights in the Nicaraguan Concessions for officers and directors.

In connection with its subordinated loan, Offshore Finance, LLC was granted a one percent (1%) revenue sharing interest in the Nicaraguan Concessions in connection with a subordinated loan provided previously which was subsequently converted to common stock. The managing partner of Offshore and the Company’s CFO are partners in the accounting firm which the Company used for general corporate purposes in the past. In connection with its dissolution, Offshore assigned its RSP to its individual members, which includes the former managing partner of Offshore.

As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had accrued compensation to its officers and directors of $1,600,208 and $1,423,208, respectively.

The Company entered into a line-of-credit facility on September 23, 2013 that provides it with borrowing capacity on a revolving basis up to a maximum of $50,000, which was increased to $75,000 at August 28, 2015 and an initial maturity of November 28, 2013. The line of credit is convertible to common stock at a rate of $5.00 per share. The entity providing the credit facility is owned by an officer of another corporation for which Infinity’s president and chairman of the board serves as president and chairman of the board. The facility is unsecured, bears interest at 8% per annum, and was renewed at its maturity several times with its current maturity date as November 28, 2016. In consideration for the origination of the line of credit facility and the various renewals, the Company granted the lender common stock purchase warrants. On February 28, 2016 the Company extended the line-of-credit expiration date to May 28, 2016 and issued a warrant to purchase 10,000 common shares at an exercise price of $5.00 per share, which warrants were immediately exercisable and expire on February 28, 2021. On May 28, 2016 the Company extended the line-of-credit expiration date to August 28, 2016 and issued a warrant to purchase 10,000 common shares at an exercise price of $5.00 per share, which warrants were immediately exercisable and expire on May 28, 2021. On August 28, 2016 the Company extended the line-of-credit expiration date to November 28, 2016 and issued a warrant to purchase 10,000 common shares at an exercise price of $5.00 per share, which warrants were immediately exercisable and expire on August 28, 2021.

Note 11 – Subsequent Events

The Company has not resolved the contingency related to the expired letters of credit and the delinquent payment of annual training program and area fees for 2016 as required by its Nicaraguan Concessions (See Note 9). The Company continues to attempt to negotiate the renewal of the letters of credit and payment of the annual training program and area fees with the Nicaraguan Government and its lenders; however, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in that regard.

On December 27, 2013 the Company borrowed $1,050,000 under an unsecured credit facility with a private, third-party lender which facility has an outstanding principal balance of $1,000,000. The facility is represented by a promissory note (the “Note”) that matured in April 2016, and is currently in technical default. The Company is seeking an extension of the maturity date; however, there can be no assurance that it will be able to obtain an extension or what the final terms will be if the lender agrees to such extension.

On November 7, 2016, the Company borrowed a total of $200,000 from an individual under a convertible note payable with the conversion rate of $5.00 per share. The term of the note was for a period of 365 days and bears interest at 8% per annum. Proceeds of the note were used for working capital purposes.

Factors that could cause or contribute to our actual results differing materially from those discussed herein or for our stock price to be adversely affected include, but are not limited to: (i) we have a history of losses and are experiencing substantial liquidity problems; (ii) we have substantial obligations to a number of third parties, including our December 2013 promissory note in the original principal amount of $1,050,000 which matured in April 2016 and is currently in technical default and the $12.0 million Convertible Note due May 2018, which began amortizing in October 2015, and there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain an extension of the maturity date of the December 2013 promissory note or otherwise meet our obligations under either note; (iii) we require working capital for our operations and obligations for the next 12 months and capital to pursue our exploration and development efforts on the Nicaraguan Concessions, including compliance with the letter of credit and other requirements of the Nicaraguan Concessions to maintain our rights in the Concessions, and there can be no assurances we will be able to maintain such rights or obtain the required capital or do so on terms favorable to us; (iv) we and our independent registered public accounting firm have concluded that there exists substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern; (v) our Nicaraguan Concessions and planned future exploration activities are in a country with a developing economy and are subject to the risks of political and economic instability associated with such economies; (vi) exploration and development of our Nicaraguan Concessions will require large amounts of capital or a commercial relationship with an industry operator which we have not been able to obtain at this point; (vii) we do not have sufficient resources to conduct required seismic mapping on our Nicaraguan Concessions; (viii) the oil and gas exploration business involves a high degree of business and financial risk; (ix) we will be subject to regulations affecting our activities with the Nicaraguan Concessions; (x) our operations may be adversely affected by changes in the fiscal regime of Nicaragua; (xi) we are continuing to negotiate with our creditors and may face additional claims in the future; (xii) oil prices may be affected by regional factors; (xiii) any future production will be contingent on successful exploration, development and acquisitions to establish reserves and revenue in the future; (xv) the oil and gas industry is highly competitive; (xvi) exploratory drilling is an uncertain process with many risks; (xvii) oil and gas prices are volatile, and declines in prices would hurt our revenues and ability to achieve profitable operations; (xviii) our common stock is traded on the Pink Sheets, which may not have the visibility or liquidity that we seek for our common stock; (xix) we depend on key personnel; (xx) sufficient voting power by coalitions of a few of our larger stockholders to make corporate governance decisions that could have significant effect on us and the other stockholders, including Amegy Bank, NA; (xxi) sale of substantial amounts of our common stock that may have a depressive effect on the market price of the outstanding shares of our common stock, including sales of shares of common stock issued to the holder of the Convertible Note upon its conversion of portions of the outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Note; (xxii) possible issuance of common stock subject to options and warrants may dilute the interest of stockholders; (xxiii) our ability to comply with Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 Section 404 as it may be required; (xxiv) our nonpayment of dividends and lack of plans to pay dividends in the future; (xxv) future sale or issuance of a substantial number of shares of our common stock that could depress the trading price of our common stock, lower our value and make it more difficult for us to raise capital; (xxvi) our additional securities available for issuance, which, if issued, could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock; (xxvii) our stock price is likely to be highly volatile due to a number of factors, including a relatively limited public float; (xxviii) indemnification of our officers and directors; (xxix) whether we will be able to find an industry or other financial partner to enable us to explore and develop our Nicaraguan Concessions; and (xxx) whether we will be able to identify, acquire and finance domestic oil and gas properties with both proven and unproven reserves or whether such properties would provide positive cash flow.

The following information should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Financial Statements and Notes presented elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. See Note 1 – “Nature of Operations, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” to the Condensed Financial Statements for the Three and Nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015.

2016 Operational and Financial Objectives

Corporate Activities

We hold a 100% working interest in any hydrocarbon deposits found under the Perlas Block (560,000 acres/2,268 km) and Tyra Block (826,000 acres/3,342 km) located in shallow waters offshore Nicaragua. The final approval of the EIA by the Nicaraguan government of our environment impact study on April 13, 2013, began Sub-Period 2 for both the Tyra and Perlas Blocks as defined in the Nicaraguan Concessions. We believe we have satisfied the acquisition, processing and interpretation of Seismic data required in Sub-Period 2 for both the Perlas and Tyra Blocks. Therefore, we are now in Sub-Period 3 of the exploration phase of the 30-year Concession for both Perlas and Tyra as of December 31, 2015. Sub-Period 3 of the Nicaraguan Concessions requires the drilling of at least one exploratory well on the Perlas Block during 2016 and the shooting of additional seismic on the Tyra Block. We plan to identify at least one potential drilling site on the Perlas block as required in Sub-Period 3 and will have to perform supplemental EIA work prior to requesting and receiving the permit to drill from the Nicaraguan government. The work plan on the Tyra block for Sub-Period 3 requires us to shoot additional seismic, which is estimated to cost approximately $2,500,000 prior to the commencement of exploratory drilling. We are seeking a waiver of the additional seismic mapping on the Tyra Block and extension of time to complete our initial well from the Nicaraguan government. There can be no assurance whether we will be able to obtain such waiver of the requirements. The Nicaraguan Government is in an election year in 2016, therefore such efforts have been delayed until the election is over.

 30

During late December 2013, we completed the 2-D seismic survey activities in the area as required under both of the Nicaraguan Concessions at that point. We believe that the newly acquired 2-D seismic data, together with the previously acquired reprocessed 2-D seismic, helped us to further evaluate the structures that were previously identified with 2-D seismic in the Eocene Zone. Our geological consultants have estimated that these Eocene structures may contain recoverable hydrocarbons (principally oil) in place. In addition, the new 2-D seismic acquired in 2013 provided our first geological information regarding the potential for oil resources in the Cretaceous Zone, which we could not evaluate using less precise older 2-D seismic mapping. We have identified multiple promising sites on the Perlas Block for exploratory drilling and will plan the drilling of initial exploratory wells in order to determine the existence of commercial hydrocarbon reserves, given sufficient capital. We believe that we have performed all work necessary as of December 31, 2015 to proceed to Sub-Period 3 for the Perlas Block as defined in the Nicaraguan Concessions, which requires the drilling of at least one exploratory well on the Perlas concession within the following one-year period. We must first prepare and submit a supplemental EIA to the Nicaraguan government before the drilling permit can be issued on the Perlas Block.

We must prepare and submit the EIA supplement to the Nicaraguan Government, assuming that it accepts the supplemental EIA and grant the drilling permit, we will be required to drill at least one exploratory well on the Perlas Block during 2016 or risk being in default and losing our rights under the Nicaraguan Concessions. We will not drill a well on the Nicaraguan Concessions during 2016 given the current state of the oil and gas commodity markets, financing the drilling, and the challenging economics for any new exploration and development project, especially a project in an area of the world without historical proven reserves of commercial hydrocarbons. We are attempting to negotiate extensions with the Nicaraguan government of the required date by which an exploratory well must be drilled; however, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in this regard.

The Company is in technical default of the Nicaraguan Concession because it has not provided the required letters of credit to the Nicaraguan Government and has not paid the annual training fees and area fees for 2016 which approximate $155,567. In accordance with the Nicaraguan Concession agreements, the Company had previously provided the Ministry of Energy with the required letters of credit in the amounts of $443,100 for Perlas (expired March 2014) and $408,450 for Tyra (expired September 2014). The Company had also made all required expenditures related to the Nicaraguan Concessions for training programs and as “area fees,” for each respective year for 2010 through 2015. However, approximately $155,567 was due and payable in March 2016 for 2016 training program and area fees that remains unpaid and outstanding as of September 30, 2016. The Company is attempting to negotiate the payment of the 2016 training program and area fees and renewal and increase of the required letters of credit which total $1,356,227 for the Perlas block and $278,450 for the Tyra block with the Nicaraguan Government and its lenders; however, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in the regard. The Company considers it is in compliance with the terms of the Nicaraguan Concessions agreements, except for the renewal of the expired letters of credit and payment of the 2016 training program and area fees. The foregoing items remain as substantial operational and legal issues that we must resolve in order to maintain our rights under the Nicaraguan Concessions during 2016.

We are also seeking offers from industry operators and other third parties for interests in the acreage in the Nicaraguan Concessions in exchange for cash and a carried interest in exploration and development operations or other joint venture arrangement. Accordingly, we intend to finance our business strategy through external financing, which may include debt and equity capital raised in public and private offerings, joint ventures, sale of working or other interests, employment of working capital and cash flow from operations, if any, and net proceeds from the sales of assets.

 31

Our ability to complete these activities is dependent on a number of factors, including, but not limited to:

● The availability of the capital resources required to fund the activities;

● The availability of third party contractors for completion services; and

● The approval by regulatory agencies of applications for permits to conduct exploration activities in a timely manner.

We are considering the acquisition of domestic oil and gas properties with both proven and unproven reserves. We believe that the current distressed state for oil and gas properties and the resulting decline in valuations may yield an opportunity for us to accumulate undervalued domestic oil and gas assets at attractive prices and terms with the objective of achieving positive cash flows despite the decline in natural gas and crude oil commodity prices. We are seeking financing for such cash generating oil and gas properties at reasonable cost of capital. This initiative is intended to provide us with positive cash flows to address immediate working capital needs until the environment improves for exploration projects such as the Nicaraguan Concessions. No assurances can be given regarding our ability to identify, acquire and finance such domestic properties or whether such properties would provide positive cash flow.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet debt nor did we have any transactions, arrangements, obligations (including contingent obligations) or other relationships with any unconsolidated entities or other persons that may have material current or future effect on financial conditions, changes in the financial conditions, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, capital resources, or significant components of revenue or expenses.

For the Three Months Ended September 30, 2016 and 2015

Results of Operations

Revenue

The Company had no revenues in either 2016 or 2015 as it focused solely on the exploration, development, financing and maintenance of the Nicaraguan Concessions.

Production and Other Operating Expenses (income)

The Company had no production related operating expenses in either 2016 or 2015. The Company sold its investment in Infinity-Texas in July 2012 and held no developed or undeveloped oil and gas properties in the United States in 2016 and 2015.

The Company has no current domestic exploration and development activities; however, it is seeking to identify and acquire domestic properties with both proven and unproven reserves, given sufficient financing. It is not actively working on any domestic property, focusing instead on the pursuit of the exploration, development and financing of the Nicaraguan Concessions.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses of $107,703 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 decreased $19,618, or 15.1%, from $126,871 in the same period in 2015. The decrease in general and administrative expenses is primarily attributable to a decrease of $16,000 in shareholder/investor relations expenses as the Company has not incurred such expenses after the completion of the Secured Convertible Note Payable financing in 2015. The decrease was also attributable to an overall decrease in Delaware franchise taxes in 2016 as compared to 2015.

 32

Stock-based compensation

Stock-based compensation expenses of $-0- for the three months ended September 30, 2016 decreased $45,588, or 100% from the same period in 2015. The Company has had minimal resources to pay employees, consultants and other service providers. Therefore, it has issued stock options to compensate and motivate its officers, directors and other service providers in previous years that vest generally over a two-year time period. The Company did not grant any stock options during 2016 and 2015. The significant decrease in stock-based compensation expense during 2016 compared to 2015 is attributable to the full vesting of the January 2014 stock option grant in January 2016, which reduced the related amortization during the three months ended September 30, 2016 compared to 2015. All outstanding stock options are fully vested as of September 30, 2016.

Interest expense

Interest expense decreased from $144,090 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 to $27,455 for the 2016 period. This significant decrease is attributable to the Company converting approximately $555,000 of its interest bearing debt to common stock during early 2015. The Company received loan proceeds of $450,000 from the Secured Convertible Note issued in May 2015 and $85,000 from two other convertible notes issued in July 2015, all of which bear interest at 8% per annum and remained outstanding at September 30, 2016. In previous years the Company issued short-term notes payable at various dates and extended their maturities by paying additional compensation to the lenders chiefly in the form of warrants. The fair value of the warrants issued to the note holders at the origination and extension dates of the short-term promissory notes was recorded as a discount on the related debt. Amortization of the value of the warrants and revenue sharing interests granted to the holders resulted in a substantial increase in the overall effective borrowing costs during the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the same period in 2016. Discount amortization represents a non-cash expense and totaled $316 and $103,843 of total interest expense recognized in the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

The Company’s current financial condition has made traditional bank loans and customary financing terms unattainable; therefore, the Company may find it necessary to continue with these types of short-term borrowings with high effective interest rates.

Change in Fair Value of Secured Convertible Note

We issued the Secured Convertible Note in the May 2015 Private Placement and elected to account for and record such Note on a fair value basis. We received $450,000 of proceeds at the date of issuance and the fair market value of the Secured Convertible Note was estimated to be $265,929 as of December 31, 2015 and $148,480 at September 30, 2016. After considering principal repayments and additional funding received the net ($2,807) and $162,235 change in fair market value of such Note is included in the accompanying statement of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Change in Derivative Fair Value

The conversion feature of the promissory notes and the common stock purchase warrants issued in connection with short-term notes and the secured convertible note outstanding during 2016 and 2015 are treated as derivative instruments because the promissory notes and warrants contain ratchet and anti-dilution provisions. Accordingly, we adjusted the value of the outstanding derivative liabilities to their estimated fair value as of September 30, 2016 and 2015. The mark-to-market process resulted in a gain of $50,062 during the three months ended September 30, 2016 and a gain of $5,861,721 during the three months ended September 30, 2015. The decrease in the gain recognized is primarily the result of the lesser reduction in the closing market price of our common stock between the December 31, 2015 ($0.16 per share) and September 30, 2016 ($0.03 per share) compared to the corresponding period in 2015 ($5.50 at December 31, 2014 versus $0.80 at September 30, 2015). Generally, the fair value of the derivative liability declines when the market value of the underlying common stock decreases compared to the derivatives exercise price.

Income Tax

For income tax purposes, the Company has net operating loss carry-forwards of approximately $66,185,000 as of December 31, 2015, which expire from 2025 through 2030. The Company has provided a 100% valuation allowance against the resulting deferred tax asset due to the uncertainty of realizing the tax benefits from its net operating loss carry-forwards.

 33

For the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Company realized net losses. The Company anticipates operating losses and additional tax losses for the foreseeable future and does not believe that utilization of its tax loss carryforward is more likely than not. Therefore, because of the uncertainty as to the ultimate utilization of the Company’s loss carryforwards, any deferred tax asset at September 30, 2016 that resulted from anticipated benefit from future utilization of such carryforward has been fully offset by a valuation allowance.

Net income (loss)

As a result of the above, we reported a net loss of $87,903 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 compared to net income of $5,707,407 for the three months ended September 30, 2015. This represents an improvement of $5,795,310.

Basic and Diluted Income (Loss) per Share

Basic net Income (Loss) loss per share is computed by dividing the net Income (Loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Common share equivalents included in the diluted computation represent shares issuable upon assumed exercise of stock options and warrants using the treasury stock and “if converted” method. For periods in which net losses from continuing operations are incurred, weighted average shares outstanding is the same for basic and diluted loss per share calculations, as the inclusion of common share equivalents would have an anti-dilutive effect.

The basic and diluted income (loss) per share was ($0.01) for the three months ended September 30, 2016 for the reasons previously noted. The basic and diluted income (loss) per share was $2.12 and $2.00 for the three months ended September 30, 2015, respectively, for the reasons previously noted. All outstanding stock options and warrants to purchase common stock were considered antidilutive and therefore excluded from the calculation of diluted income (loss) per share for the three months ended September 30, 2016 because of the exercise price of the warrants being substantially higher than market price in 2016 and the net loss reported for 2016 period. Potential shares of common stock as of September 30, 2016 that have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share amounted to 2,911,221 shares, which included 2,507,771 outstanding warrants and 403,450 outstanding stock options.

For the Nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015

Results of Operations

Revenue

The Company had no revenues in either 2016 or 2015 as it focused solely on the pursuit of the exploration, development, financing and maintenance of the Nicaraguan Concessions.

Production and Other Operating Expenses (income)

The Company had no production related operating expenses in either 2016 or 2015. The Company sold its investment in Infinity-Texas in July 2012 and held no developed or undeveloped oil and gas properties in the United States in 2016 and 2015.

The Company has no current or planned domestic exploration and development activities at this time. It is not actively working on any domestic property, focusing instead on the exploration, development and financing of the Nicaraguan Concessions.

 34

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses of $339,199 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 decreased $15,856, or 4.5%, from $355,055 in the same period in 2015. The decrease in general and administrative expenses is primarily attributable to a reduction of $47,665 in Delaware franchise taxes offset by an increase of $31,552 in Nicaraguan Concession costs incurred. The Delaware franchise tax is based on our total assets, which decreased substantially due to the impairment of our Nicaraguan oil and gas properties during 2015. The Company is no longer capitalizing Nicaraguan Concession expenditures due to the decision to fully impair the Nicaraguan Project at December 31, 2015 as a result of the difficult oil and gas economy and noncompliance issues with the requirements of the Concessions. The decrease in general and administrative costs was also attributable to a reduction in expenses relating to the Company attending fewer investor conferences or similar forums during the three months ended September 30, 2016 compared to 2015. The closing of the May 2015 Private Placement reduced the need to incur additional costs related to capital raising and investor relations activities during the 2016 period coupled with the poor investment climate for oil and gas companies during 2016 and 2015.

Stock-based compensation

Stock-based compensation expenses of $7,598 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 decreased $138,962, or 94.8%, from the $146,560 of expense incurred during the same period in 2015. The Company has had minimal resources to pay employees, consultants and other service providers. Therefore, it has issued stock options to compensate and motivate its officers, directors and other service providers in previous years that vest generally over a two-year time period. The Company did not grant any stock options during 2016 and 2015. The significant decrease in stock-based compensation expense during 2016 compared to 2015 is attributable to the full vesting of the January 2014 stock option grant in January 2016, which reduced the related amortization during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 compared to 2015. All outstanding stock options are fully vested as of September 30, 2016.

Interest expense

Interest expense decreased from $841,395 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 to $134,972 for the 2016 period. This significant decrease is attributable to the Company converting approximately $555,000 of its interest bearing debt to common stock during early 2015. The Company received loan proceeds of $450,000 from the Secured Convertible Note issued in the May 2015 Private Placement and $85,000 from two other convertible notes issued in July 2015, all of which bear interest at 8% per annum and remained outstanding at September 30, 2016. In previous years the Company issued short-term notes payable at various dates and extended their maturities by paying additional compensation to the lenders chiefly in the form of warrants. The fair value of the warrants issued to the note holders at the origination and extension dates of the short-term promissory notes was recorded as a discount on the related debt. Amortization of the value of the warrants and revenue sharing interests granted to the holders resulted in a substantial increase in the overall effective borrowing costs during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the same period in 2016. Discount amortization represents a non-cash expense and totaled $53,297 and $717,162 of total interest expense recognized in the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

The Company’s current financial condition has made traditional bank loans and customary financing terms unattainable; therefore, the Company may find it necessary to continue with these types of short-term borrowings with high effective interest rates.

Secured Convertible Note Payable Issuance Costs

On May 7, 2015, we completed the May 2015 Private Placement of a $12.0 million principal amount Secured Convertible Note and a Warrant exercisable to purchase 1,800,000 shares of our common stock, $0.0001 par value. We elected to account for and record such note on a fair value basis. Accordingly, all related debt issuance expenses, which totaled $1,302,629 (including $1,071,201 representing the value of the warrant to purchase 240,000 shares of common stock issued to placement agent and $231,428 of other fees and expenses), was charged to non-operating expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. No similar transaction occurred during 2016.

 35

Change in Fair Value of Secured Convertible Note

We issued the Secured Convertible Note in the May 2015 Private Placement and elected to account for and record such Note on a fair value basis. We received $450,000 of proceeds at the date of issuance and the fair market value of the Secured Convertible Note was estimated to be $265,929 as of December 31, 2015 and $148,480 at September 30, 2016. After considering principal repayments and additional funding received the net $67,591 and $5,865 change in fair market value of such Note is included in the accompanying statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Issuance of Warrant Derivative in Connection with Secured Convertible Note

The Warrant issued in the May 2015 Private Placement contains various provisions that grant the holder ratchet and anti-dilution rights. Consequently, such Warrant is required to be treated on a liability basis at its estimated fair value and classified as a derivative liability in the accompanying financial statements. We recorded its origination date estimated fair value at $8,034,007 as a non-operating expense in the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The value of the Warrant to purchase 240,000 shares granted to the placement agent in the May 2015 Private Placement was included in Secured Convertible Note issuance costs in the statement of operations as previously described.

Change in Derivative Fair Value

The conversion feature of the promissory notes and the common stock purchase warrants issued in connection with short-term notes and the Secured Convertible Note outstanding during 2016 and 2015 are treated as derivative instruments because the promissory notes and warrants contain ratchet and anti-dilution provisions. Accordingly, we adjusted the value of the outstanding derivative liabilities to their estimated fair value as of September 30, 2016 and 2015. The mark-to-market process resulted in a gain of $167,830 during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and a gain of $8,329,827 during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The decrease in the gain recognized is primarily the result of the lesser reduction in the closing market price of our common stock between the December 31, 2015 ($0.16 per share) and September 30, 2016 ($0.03 per share) compared to the corresponding period in 2015 ($5.50 at December 31, 2014 versus $0.80 at September 30, 2015). Generally, the fair value of the derivative liability declines when the market value of the underlying common stock decreases compared to the derivatives exercise price.

Gain on Derecognition of Liabilities

Gain on derecognition of liabilities increased from $174,457 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 to $1,134,082 in 2016. The Company derecognized certain previously recorded liabilities due to the expiration of the statute of limitations on collection of such obligations for the Company.

Income Tax

For income tax purposes, the Company has net operating loss carry-forwards of approximately $66,185,000 as of December 31, 2015, which expire from 2025 through 2030. The Company has provided a 100% valuation allowance against the resulting deferred tax asset due to the uncertainty of realizing the tax benefits from its net operating loss carry-forwards.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company realized net income. However, the Company anticipates operating losses and additional tax losses for the foreseeable future and does not believe that utilization of its tax loss carryforward is more likely than not. Therefore, because of the uncertainty as to the ultimate utilization of the Company’s loss carryforwards, any deferred tax asset at September 30, 2016 that resulted from anticipated benefit from future utilization of such carryforward has been fully offset by a valuation allowance.

Net income (loss)

As a result of the above, we reported net income of $752,552 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 compared to a net loss of $2,181,227 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. This represents an improvement of $2,933,779.

 36

Basic and Diluted Income (Loss) per Share

Basic net Income (Loss) per share is computed by dividing the net Income (Loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Common share equivalents included in the diluted computation represent shares issuable upon assumed exercise of stock options and warrants using the treasury stock and “if converted” method. For periods in which net losses from continuing operations are incurred, weighted average shares outstanding is the same for basic and diluted loss per share calculations, as the inclusion of common share equivalents would have an anti-dilutive effect.

The basic and diluted income per share was $0.12 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, for the reasons previously noted. The basic and diluted loss per share was $0.82 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. All outstanding stock options and warrants to purchase common stock were considered antidilutive and therefore excluded from the calculation of diluted income (loss) per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 because of the exercise price of the warrants was substantially higher than market price in 2016 and the net loss reported for 2015. Potential shares of common stock as of September 30, 2016 that have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share amounted to 2,911,221 shares, which included 2,507,771 outstanding warrants and 403,450 outstanding stock options.

Liquidity and Capital Resources; Going Concern

We have had a history of losses and have generated little or no operating revenues for a number of years as we concentrated on development of our Nicaraguan Concessions, which is a long-term, high-risk/reward exploration project in an otherwise unproven part of the world. Historically, we financed our operations through the issuance of redeemable preferred stock and various short and long-term debt financing that contained some level of detachable warrants to provide the holders with a level of equity participation should we be successful exploring our Nicaraguan Concessions.

During 2013 we borrowed approximately $1,825,000 on a short-term basis by issuing various subordinated promissory notes with detachable warrants to purchase common shares. The fair value of the warrants resulted in a substantial increase in the overall effective borrowing costs. We used the proceeds of these notes to repay previously issued notes, including the foregoing related party note, to meet obligations and conduct seismic mapping related to our Nicaraguan Concessions and to provide working capital. In addition, we entered into an unsecured line-of-credit with a related party that supplemented its working capital needs and also provided detachable warrants to purchase common stock that increased the overall cost of the borrowing.

In April 2013, we conducted a private placement of units composed of common stock and warrants under which we raised $890,000 in proceeds and exchanged $125,000 principal amount of an outstanding note plus accrued interest for units. We used part of these proceeds to retire notes issued earlier in 2013.

We were unable to raise long-term capital in 2014 to pay the majority of the outstanding short-term promissory notes on their respective maturity dates. We were able to negotiate extensions of the maturity dates on these short-term promissory notes by issuing additional warrants exercisable to purchase shares of common stock and, in one case, granting a revenue sharing interest in our Nicaraguan Concessions.

In the first quarter 2015, we were able to increase our line-of-credit to a maximum of $100,000, which provided us some liquidity, but were unable to obtain other sources of capital. On February 28, 2015, the short-term note holders of maturing debt exercised their right to convert principal balances totaling $475,000 and accrued interest totaling $28,630 into 100,726 shares of common stock at an exchange rate of $5.00 per share. In addition, on September 30, 2015, the lender who provides the line-of-credit facility converted a partial principal balance totaling $50,000 into 10,000 shares of common stock at a price of $5.00 per share. Such debt to equity conversions helped to reduce our near term cash needs.

 37

In July 2015, the Company issued two promissory notes for total cash proceeds of $85,000. The promissory notes have maturity dates that have been extended several times and currently mature in October 2016. In connection with the origination and extension of the notes, the Company issued warrants exercisable to purchase shares of common stock at an exercise price of $5.60 per share. The warrants are immediately exercisable and terminate five years from their dates of issuance.

On December 27, 2013 the Company borrowed $1,050,000 under the December 2013 Note, which is an unsecured credit facility with a private, third-party lender. Effective April 7, 2015 the Company and the lender agreed to extend the maturity date of the December 2013 Note from April 7, 2015 to the earlier of (i) April 7, 2016 or (ii) the payment in full of the Investor Note issued in the May 2015 Private Placement in the principal amount of $9,550,000 (the “New Maturity Date”). All other terms of the Note remained the same and the remaining principal balance was reduced to $1,000,000 as of September 30, 2016 after the $50,000 principal repayment required by the extension agreement.

The December 2013 Note may be prepaid without penalty at any time. The December 2013 Note is subordinated to all existing and future senior indebtedness, as such terms are defined in the December 2013 Note. The December 2013 Note matured in April 2016 and is currently in technical default. The Company is seeking an extension of the maturity date; however, there can be no assurance that it will be able to obtain such extension or what the final terms will be if the lender agrees to such an extension.

On May 7, 2015 the Company completed the May 2015 Private Placement of $12.0 million Secured Convertible Note and a Warrant exercisable to purchase 1,800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with an institutional investor. At the closing of the May 2015 Private Placement, the investor acquired the Convertible Note by paying $450,000 in cash and issuing the Investor Note, secured by cash, with a principal amount of $9,550,000. Assuming all amounts payable to the Company under the Investor Note are paid, the May 2015 Private Placement will result in gross proceeds of $10.0 million before placement agent fees and other expenses associated with the transaction, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. The Company used the initial proceeds from the closing to retire certain outstanding obligations, including the 2015 area and training fees of approximately $155,000 owed to the Nicaraguan government relating to its Nicaragua Concessions, and to provide additional working capital.

The Company will receive the remaining cash proceeds upon each voluntary or mandatory prepayment of the Investor Note. The investor may, at its option and at any time, voluntarily prepay the Investor Note, in whole or in part.

The Convertible Note matures on the three-year anniversary of its issuance, bears interest at 8% per annum, and is convertible at any time at the option of the holder into shares of the Company’s common stock at $5.00 per share (the “Conversion Price”). As a part of the May 2015 Private Placement, the Company issued a Warrant to the investor giving it the right to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share. The Warrant is exercisable commencing six months from the date of issuance for a period of seven years from the date of issuance.

The investor has no right to convert the Convertible Note or exercise the Warrant to the extent that such conversion or exercise would result in the investor being the beneficial owner of in excess of 9.99% of the Company’s common stock. The Convertible Note ranks senior to the Company’s existing and future indebtedness and is secured by all of the assets of the Company, excluding the Nicaraguan Concessions.

WestPark Capital acted as placement agent for the Company in the May 2015 Private Placement and received a fee of 6% of cash proceeds, or $600,000, if and when the Company receives the full cash proceeds. It received $27,000 of such amount at the closing plus the reimbursement of legal fees totaling $7,500. The Company also issued WestPark a warrant exercisable to purchase 240,000 shares of common stock at a price of $5.00 per share. The warrant was exercisable upon from the date of issuance for a period of seven years.

In summary, as of September 30, 2016, we owed: (i) $68,105 on our line-of-credit, which is due November 28, 2016; (ii) the two promissory notes in the total principal amount of $85,000, which are due in October 2016; (iii) the Secured Convertible note with a fair value of $148,450, which is due in 23 monthly installment payments either in cash or stock; and (iv) and the December 2013 Note in the principal amount of $1,000,000, which was due in April 2016 and is currently in technical default. We are seeking to extend the maturity date in order to cure the technical default; however, there can be no assurance that it will be able to obtain such extension or what the final terms will be if the lender agrees to such extension. We intend to seek additional funding under the Investor Note or other short-term debt financing to provide the funds necessary to pay-off the line-of-credit when it comes due and to provide working capital to fund normal operations, although we can provide no assurances that we will be successful in this regard. Our current financial condition has made traditional bank loans and normal financing terms unattainable; therefore, we may find it necessary to continue with the type of short-term borrowings with high effective interest rates that we have used in the past.

 38

The Company is in Sub-Period 3 of the exploration phase of the 30-year Concessions for both Perlas and Tyra as of September 30, 2015. Sub-Period 3 of the Nicaraguan Concessions requires the drilling of at least one exploratory well on the Perlas Block during 2016 and the shooting of additional seismic on the Tyra Block. The Company plans to identify at least one potential drilling site on the Perlas Block as required in Sub-Period 3 and will have to perform supplemental EIA work prior to requesting and receiving the permit to drill from the Nicaraguan government. The work plan on the Tyra block for Sub-Period 3 requires the Company to shoot additional seismic, which is estimated to cost approximately $2,500,000 prior to the commencement of exploratory drilling. The Company is seeking a waiver of the additional seismic mapping on the Tyra Block and extension of time to complete its initial well from the Nicaraguan government. There can be no assurance whether it will be able to obtain a waiver of the requirements. The Nicaraguan Government is in an election year in 2016, therefore such efforts have been delayed until the election is over.

In accordance with the Nicaraguan Concession agreements, the Company has previously provided the Ministry of Energy with the required letters of credit in the amounts of $443,100 for Perlas (expired March 2014) and $408,450 for Tyra (expired September 2014). The Company has also made all required expenditures related to the Nicaraguan Concessions for training programs and as “area fees,” for each respective year for 2010 through 2015. However, the Company is delinquent with respect to the payment of the 2016 training program and area fees which approximate $155,000 as of September 30, 2016. In accordance with the Nicaraguan Concession agreements, the Company must provide the Ministry of Energy with the required letters of credit in the amounts which total $1,356,227 for the Perlas block and $278,450 for the Tyra block for exploration requirements on the leases as required by the Nicaraguan Concessions, to replace the expired letters of credit. The minimum cash requirements to maintain and comply with the minimum work program as defined in the Nicaraguan Concessions for the next twelve-month period will be approximately $5,500,000 for the Perlas Block which includes all costs to prepare for and drill the initial exploratory well, and $280,000 for the Tyra Block, assuming the waiver is granted regarding the seismic mapping. If such waiver is not granted, the Company estimates it will require approximately $2,500,000 for the seismic mapping. Finally, the Company estimates it will need approximately $300,000 to prepare and submit an environmental supplement to the Nicaraguan government to identify and receive authorization to drill up to five wells in the Concessions.

The Company has identified multiple sites for exploratory drilling and will plan the initial exploratory wells in order to determine the existence of commercial hydrocarbon reserves, subject to receipt from the Nicaraguan government of authorizations for the drilling of up to five wells. In order to meet its obligations under the Perlas Block of the Nicaraguan Concession, the Company must drill its initial exploratory well during 2016 or risk being in default and losing its rights under the Nicaraguan Concessions.

We are negotiating the renewal and/or adjustment of the required letters of credit with the Nicaraguan Government. Further, we are seeking a waiver of the 3-D seismic mapping requirement because we do not believe it will be effective in providing additional information due the supplemental water depth and other factors. The Nicaraguan Government is in an election year in 2016, therefore such efforts have been delayed until the election is over. We plan to prepare the necessary information to submit to the EIA in order to obtain the necessary authorizations to drill up to five locations in the Concessions. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in any of the foregoing regards. Except for the foregoing items, we believe we are in full compliance with the terms of the Nicaraguan Concessions agreements.

The Company must successfully comply with the restrictions related to the secured convertible note in order to release the remaining $9.49 million in funding under the Investor Note or it must raise substantial amounts of debt and equity capital in the immediate future in order to fund: (1) the 2016 training program and area fees which are delinquent; (2) the required letters of credit to the Nicaraguan Government; (3) fund approximately $300,000 to prepare and submit an environmental supplement to the Nicaraguan government to identify and receive authorization to drill up to five wells in the Concessions; (4) the drilling of at least one exploratory well on the Perlas Block of the Nicaraguan Concessions during 2016; (5) the shooting of additional seismic on the Tyra Block of the Nicaraguan Concessions if it is unable to negotiate a waiver of such requirement form the Nicaraguan government; (6) the payment of normal day-to-day operations and corporate overhead; and (7) the payment of outstanding debt and financial obligations as they become due including the $1.0 million December 2013 Note which currently is in technical default. These are substantial operational and financial issues that must be successfully addressed during 2016 or the Company’s ability to satisfy the conditions necessary to maintain its Nicaragua Concessions will be in significant doubt. The Company is actively seeking new outside sources of debt and equity capital in order fund the substantial needs enumerated above; however, there can be no assurance that it will be able to obtain such capital or obtain it on favorable terms or within the timeframe necessary to cure the technical defaults existing on the Nicaraguan Concessions or to meet its ongoing requirements to drill the exploratory wells.

 39

In addition to the minimum cash requirements related to the Nicaraguan Concessions, we estimate that we will require approximately $330,000 of working capital to maintain corporate operations for the next 12 months, but not including (i) approximately $1,000,000 principal amount of a short-term promissory note which matured in April 2016 and is in technical default, plus accrued interest; (ii) the $85,000 principal due on the two promissory notes due in October 2016 and (iii) the $68,105 currently outstanding under a revolving line of credit due August 2016. We owe $4,945,000 in trade payables related to seismic activities already performed (in December 2013) but not yet paid; however, we believe such party has agreed to extend the time for payment of this obligation to until such time as we begin drilling operations on the Nicaraguan Concessions. We also owe other obligations to third parties as noted on our balance sheet, which we intend to pay, to negotiate and/or settle prior to the beginning of any drilling operations, although there is no assurance that will be able negotiate settlements with venders or avoid collection activities.

We plan to raise long-term capital to satisfy the foregoing needs through an offering of our equity or debt securities and/or through a commercial relationship with other industry operators, which may involve the granting of revenue or other interests in the Nicaraguan Concessions in exchange for cash and a carried interest in exploration and development operations or the creation of a joint venture or other strategic partnership. There can be no assurance that we will obtain such funding or obtain it on terms acceptable to us. Further, if we cannot meet our obligations respecting the Nicaraguan Concessions, we may lose our rights to them.

The Company will not be able to meet all of the Nicaraguan Concession requirements in 2016, including proceeding to drill the required exploration well during 2016, given the current state of the oil and gas commodity markets and the challenging economics for any new exploration and development project especially a project in an area of the world without historical proven reserves of commercial hydrocarbons. The Company is attempting to negotiate extensions with the Nicaraguan government relative to the required date by which any exploratory wells must be drilled as well as the other requirements for maintaining the Concessions; however, there can be no assurance that it will be successful in this regard. These are substantial operational and legal issues that the Company must resolve in order to maintain its rights under the Nicaraguan Concessions during 2016.

Due to the uncertainties related to these matters, there exists substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures, as such terms are defined in Rules 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). The Company, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of such disclosure controls and procedures for this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2016 to provide reasonable assurance that material information required to be disclosed by the Company in this report was recorded, processed, summarized and communicated to the Company’s management as appropriate and within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms .

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Internal control systems, no matter how well designed and operated, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even a system which is determined to be effective cannot provide absolute assurance that all control issues have been detected or prevented. Our systems of internal controls are designed to provide reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company is currently involved in litigation as follows:

● In October 2012 the State of Texas filed a lawsuit naming Infinity-Texas, the Company and the corporate officers of Infinity-Texas, seeking $30,000 of reclamation costs associated with a single well, in addition to administrative expenses and penalties. The Company engaged in negotiations with the State of Texas in late 2012 and early 2013 and reached a settlement agreement that would reduce the aggregate liability, in this action and any extension of this to other Texas wells, to $45,103, which amount has been paid. Certain performance obligations remain which must be satisfied in order to finally settle and dismiss the matter.

● Pending satisfactory performance of the performance obligations and their acceptance by the State of Texas, the officers have potential liability regarding the above matter, and the officers are held personally harmless by indemnification provisions of the Company. Therefore, to extent they might actually occur, these liabilities are the obligations of the Company. Management estimates that the liabilities associated with this matter will not exceed $780,000, calculated as $30,000 for each of the 26 Infinity-Texas operated wells. This related liability, less the payment made to the State of Texas in 2012 in the amount of $45,103, is included in the asset retirement obligation on the accompanying balance sheets.

● Cambrian Consultants America, Inc. (“Cambrian”) filed an action in the District Court of Harris County, Texas, number CV2014-55719, on September 26, 2014 against Infinity Energy Resources, Inc. resulting from certain professional consulting services provided for quality control and management of seismic operations during November and December 2013 on the Nicaraguan Concessions. Cambrian provided these services pursuant to a Master Consulting Agreement with Infinity, dated November 20, 2013, and has claimed breach of contract for failure to pay amounts due. On December 8, 2014, a default judgment was entered against the Company in the amount of $96,877 plus interest and attorney fees. The Company has included the impact of this litigation as a liability in its accounts payable. The Company will seek to settle the default judgment when it has the financial resources to do so.

● Torrey Hills Capital, Inc. (“Torrey”) notified the Company by letter, dated August 15, 2014, of its demand for the payment of $56,000, which it alleged was unpaid and owed under a consulting agreement, dated October 18, 2013. The parties entered into a consulting agreement under which Torrey agreed to provide investor relations services in exchange for payment of $7,000 per month and the issuance of 15,000 shares of common stock. The agreement was for an initial three month-term with automatic renewals unless terminated upon 30 days’ written notice by either party. The Company made payments totaling $14,000 and issued 15,000 shares of common stock during 2013. The Company contends that Torrey breached the agreement by not performing the required services and that it had provided proper notice of termination to Torrey. Furthermore, the Company contends that the parties agreed to settle the dispute on or about June 19, 2014 under which it would issue 2,800 shares of common stock in full settlement of any balance then owed and final termination of the agreement. Torrey disputes the Company’s contentions and submitted the dispute to binding arbitration. The Company was unable to defend itself and the arbitration panel awarded Torrey a total of $79,594 in damages. The Company has accrued amounts in accounts payable as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, which management believes is sufficient to provide for the ultimate resolution of this dispute.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

During the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Company entered into the following unregistered sales of equity securities:

● On August 28, 2016 the Company negotiated an extension of the line-of-credit facility to November 28, 2016 and granted the lender common stock purchase warrants exercisable to purchase an aggregate of 10,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share, which warrants were immediately exercisable and expire on August 28, 2021. The Company used the loan proceeds for working capital and paid no compensation to any party in connection with the establishment of the credit facility and issuance of the warrants. It relied on the exemption from registration set forth in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act for issuance of the credit facility and warrants.

● The Company is required to make monthly installment payments under its Secured Convertible Note which can be made in the form of cash, common stock or a combination at the Company’s discretion. In accordance with the Note provisions, the Company delivered 33,509 shares of common stock to holder of Secured Convertible Note representing a true-up of previous principal repayments and 131,160 shares representing interest payments ($2,630 interest payments) during the three months ended September 30, 2016. The 164,669 shares delivered to the holder of the Secured Convertible Note during the three months ended September 30, 2016 were issued under an exemption from registration set forth in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

Nature of Operations, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Note 1 – Nature of Operations, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Unaudited Interim Financial Information

Infinity Energy Resources, Inc. (collectively, “we,” “ours,” “us,” “Infinity” or the “Company”) has prepared the accompanying condensed financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial reporting. These financial statements are unaudited and, in our opinion, include all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals necessary for a fair presentation of our balance sheets, statements of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for 2016 due to various factors. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and accompanying notes in Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data,” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC.

Nature of Operations

The Company is pursuing the exploration of potential oil and gas resources in the Perlas and Tyra concession blocks offshore Nicaragua in the Caribbean Sea (the “Nicaraguan Concessions” or “Concessions”), which contain a total of approximately 1.4 million acres. The Company sold its wholly-owned subsidiary Infinity Oil and Gas of Texas, Inc. in 2012 and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Infinity Oil and Gas of Wyoming, Inc., was administratively dissolved in 2009.

The Company has been pursuing exploration and development of the Nicaraguan Concessions, which represents its principal asset and only exploration and development project. On March 5, 2009 Infinity signed the contracts relating to its Nicaraguan Concessions. Infinity has conducted activities to develop geological information from the processing and evaluation of 2-D seismic data that was acquired for the Nicaraguan Concessions. The Company has identified multiple sites for exploratory drilling and will plan the initial exploratory well on the Perlas Block in order to determine the existence of commercial hydrocarbon reserves, subject to receipt from the Nicaraguan government of authorizations for the drilling of up to five wells, financing and satisfaction of other conditions. In order to meet its obligations under the Perlas Block of the Nicaraguan Concession, the Company has to drill its initial exploratory well during 2016 or risk being in default and losing its rights under the Nicaraguan Concessions. The work plan on the Tyra block now requires the Company to shoot additional seismic prior to the commencement of exploratory drilling. The Company is seeking a waiver of the additional seismic mapping on the Tyra Block and extension of time to complete its initial well from the Nicaraguan government. There can be no assurance whether it will be able to obtain such waiver of the requirements. The current environment for oil and gas development projects, especially discoveries in otherwise undeveloped regions of the world, is very challenging given the depressed commodity prices for oil and gas products and the resulting industry-wide reduction in capital expenditure budgets for exploration and development projects. There can be no assurance whether the Company will be able to obtain adequate financing to fund the exploration and development of its Nicaraguan Concessions.

On May 7, 2015 the Company completed the private placement (the “May 2015 Private Placement”) of a $12.0 million principal amount Secured Convertible Note (the “Note”) and a common stock purchase warrant to purchase 1,800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Warrant”) with an institutional investor (the “Investor”). At the closing, the Investor acquired the Note by paying $450,000 in cash and issuing a promissory note, secured by cash, with a principal amount of $9,550,000 (the “Investor Note”). Assuming all amounts payable to the Company under the Investor Note are paid, the May 2015 Private Placement will result in gross proceeds of $10.0 million before placement agent fees and other expenses associated with the transaction, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. The Company will receive the remaining cash proceeds upon each voluntary or mandatory prepayment of the Investor Note. The Investor may, at its option and at any time, voluntarily prepay the Investor Note, in whole or in part. As of September 30, 2016 an additional $60,000 was funded under the Investor Note for a total of $510,000 advanced to the Company.

The Investor must prepay the Investor Note, in whole or in part, upon the occurrence of one or more mandatory prepayment events. These include (i) the Investor’s conversion of the Note into shares of common stock upon which the Investor will be required to prepay the Investor Note, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, for each subsequent conversion of the Note and (ii) the Company’s delivering a mandatory prepayment notice to the Investor after it has received governmental authorizations from the Nicaraguan authorities necessary to commence drilling on at least five sites within the Concessions and the receipt of forbearance or similar agreements relative to its general creditors, among other conditions.

The Note matures on the three-year anniversary of its issuance, bears interest at 8% per annum, and is convertible at any time at the option of the holder into shares of the Company’s common stock at $5.00 per share (the “Conversion Price”). As a part of the May 2015 Private Placement, the Company issued a Warrant to the Investor giving it the right to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share. The Warrant is exercisable commencing six months from the date of issuance for a period of seven years from the date of issuance. The Note ranks senior to the Company’s existing and future indebtedness and is secured by all of the assets of the Company, excluding the Concessions.

In addition, the Company continues to seek offers from industry operators and other third parties for interests in the acreage in the Nicaraguan Concessions in exchange for cash and a carried interest in exploration and development operations or other joint venture arrangement.

Going Concern

As reflected in the accompanying statements of operations, the Company has had a history of losses. In addition, the Company has a significant working capital deficit and is currently experiencing substantial liquidity issues.

The Company has relied on raising debt and equity capital in recent years in order to fund its ongoing maintenance/expenditure obligations under the Nicaraguan Concession, for its day-to-day operations and its corporate overhead because it has generated no operating revenues or cash flows in recent history. The $1.0 million December 2013 Note (See Note 3) matured in April 2016 and is currently in technical default. The Company is seeking an extension of the maturity date; however, there can be no assurance that it will be able to obtain such extension or what the final terms will be if the lender agrees to such extension.

The Company is in Sub-Period 3 of the exploration phase of the 30-year Concession for both Perlas and Tyra as of September 30, 2016. Sub-Period 3 of the Nicaraguan Concessions requires the drilling of at least one exploratory well on the Perlas Block during 2016 and the shooting of additional seismic on the Tyra Block. The Company plans to identify at least one potential drilling site on the Perlas Block as required in Sub-Period 3 and will have to perform supplemental EIA work prior to requesting and receiving the permit to drill from the Nicaraguan government. The work plan on the Tyra block for Sub-Period 3 requires the Company to shoot additional seismic, which is estimated to cost approximately $2,500,000 prior to the commencement of exploratory drilling. The Company is seeking a waiver of the additional seismic mapping on the Tyra Block and extension of time to complete its initial well from the Nicaraguan government. The Nicaraguan Government is in an election year in 2016, therefore such efforts have been delayed until the election is over. There can be no assurance whether it will be able to obtain a waiver of the requirements.

In accordance with the Nicaraguan Concession agreements, the Company has previously provided the Ministry of Energy with the required letters of credit in the amounts of $443,100 for Perlas (expired March 2014) and $408,450 for Tyra (expired September 2014). The Company has also made all required expenditures related to the Nicaraguan Concessions for training programs and as “area fees,” for each respective year for 2010 through 2015. However, approximately $155,567 was due and payable in March 2016 for 2016 training program and area fees that remain unpaid and outstanding as of September 30, 2016. In accordance with the Nicaraguan Concession agreements, the Company must provide the Ministry of Energy with the required letters of credit in the amounts, which total $1,356,227 for the Perlas block and $278,450 for the Tyra block for exploration requirements on the leases as required by the Nicaraguan Concessions, to replace the expired letters of credit. The minimum cash requirements to maintain and comply with the minimum work program as defined in the Nicaraguan Concessions for the next twelve-month period will be approximately $5,500,000 for the Perlas Block, which includes all costs to prepare for and drill the initial exploratory well, and $280,000 for the Tyra Block, assuming the waiver is granted regarding the seismic mapping. If such waiver is not granted, the Company estimates it will require approximately $2,500,000 for the seismic mapping. Finally, the Company estimates it will need approximately $300,000 to prepare and submit an environmental supplement to the Nicaraguan government to identify and receive authorization to drill up to five wells in the Concessions.

If the Company does not receive the funding anticipated under its May 2015 Private Placement, it must raise substantial amounts of debt and equity capital from other sources in the immediate future in order to fund: (1) the annual training program and area fees for 2016; (2) required letters of credit to the Nicaraguan Government; (3) the drilling of at least one exploratory well on the Perlas Block of the Nicaraguan Concessions during 2016; (4) the shooting of additional seismic on the Tyra Block of the Nicaraguan Concessions should it be unable to negotiate a waiver of such requirement from the Nicaraguan government; (5) normal day-to-day operations and corporate overhead; and (6) outstanding debt and other financial obligations as they become due including the $1.0 million December 2013 Note, which currently is in technical default. These are substantial operational and financial issues that must be successfully addressed during 2016 or the Company’s ability to satisfy the conditions necessary to maintain its Nicaragua Concessions will be in significant doubt. The Company is seeking new outside sources of debt and equity capital in addition to the May 2015 Private Placement in order to fund the substantial needs enumerated above; however, there can be no assurance that it will be able to obtain such capital or obtain it on favorable terms or within the timeframe necessary to cure the technical defaults existing on the Nicaraguan Concessions or to meet its ongoing requirements relative to drilling the exploratory wells. The current environment for oil and gas development projects, especially discoveries in otherwise undeveloped regions of the world, is very challenging given the depressed commodity prices for oil and gas products, and the resulting industry-wide reduction in capital expenditure budgets for exploration and development projects. These are substantial impediments for the Company to obtain adequate financing to fund the exploration and development of its Nicaraguan projects.

Due to the uncertainties related to these matters, there exists substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Management Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates with regard to the financial statements include the estimated carrying value of unproved properties, the estimated fair value of derivative liabilities, secured convertible note payable, stock-based awards and overriding royalty interests, and the realization of deferred tax assets.

Oil and Gas Properties

Unproved properties are assessed periodically (at least annually) to ascertain whether impairment has occurred. Unproved properties whose costs are individually significant are assessed individually by considering the primary lease terms of the properties, the holding period of the properties, geographic and geologic data obtained relating to the properties, and estimated discounted future net cash flows from the properties. Estimated discounted future net cash flows are based on discounted future net revenues associated with probable and possible reserves, risk adjusted as appropriate. Where it is not practicable to assess individually the amount of impairment of properties for which costs are not individually significant, such properties are grouped for purposes of assessing impairment. The amount of impairment assessed is deducted from the costs to be amortized, and reported as a period expense when the impairment is recognized. All unproved property costs as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 relate to the Nicaraguan Concessions. In assessing the unproved property costs for impairment, the Company takes into consideration various information including: (i) the terms of the Concessions, (ii) the status of the Company’s compliance with the Nicaraguan Concessions’ requirements, iii) (the ongoing evaluation of the seismic data, (iv) the commodity prices for oil and gas products, (v) the overall environment related to oil and gas exploration and development projects for unproven targets in unproven regions of the world, (vi) the availability of financing for financial and strategic partners, and (vii) other factors that would impact the viability of a significant long-term oil and gas exploration and development project.

The current environment for oil and gas development projects, especially discoveries in otherwise undeveloped regions of the world, is very challenging given the depressed commodity prices for oil and gas products and the resulting industry-wide reduction in capital expenditure budgets for exploration and development projects. These are substantial impediments for the Company to obtain adequate financing to fund the exploration and development of its Nicaraguan projects. The Company has performed its impairment tests as of December 31, 2015 and has concluded that a full impairment reserve should be provided on the costs capitalized for the Nicaraguan Concessions oil and gas properties. All costs related to the Nicaraguan Concessions from December 31, 2015 through September 30, 2016 have been charged to operating expenses as incurred.

Concentrations

The Company’s business plan consists of developing the Nicaraguan Concessions and it expects to be active in Nicaragua for the foreseeable future, given sufficient capital. The political climate in Nicaragua could become unstable and subject to radical change over a short period of time. In the event of a significant negative change in political and economic stability in the vicinity of the Nicaraguan Concessions or of the inability of the Company to obtain sufficient financing, the Company might be forced to abandon or suspend its efforts and its rights under its Nicaraguan Concessions.

Derivative Instruments

The Company accounts for derivative instruments or hedging activities under the provisions of ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging. ASC 815 requires the Company to record derivative instruments at their fair value. If the derivative is designated as a fair value hedge, the changes in the fair value of the derivative and of the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in earnings. If the derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge, the effective portions of changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and are recognized in the statement of operations when the hedged item affects earnings. Ineffective portions of changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges, if any, are recognized in earnings. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that do not qualify for hedge treatment are recognized in earnings.

The purpose of hedging is to provide a measure of stability to the Company’s cash flows in an environment of volatile oil and gas prices and to manage the exposure to commodity price risk. As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 and during the periods then ended, the Company had no oil and natural gas derivative arrangements outstanding.

As a result of certain terms, conditions and features included in certain common stock purchase warrants issued by the Company (Notes 2, 3 and 6), those warrants are required to be accounted for as derivatives at estimated fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in operations.

Income Taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. This method requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between financial accounting bases and tax bases of assets and liabilities. The tax benefits of tax loss carryforwards and other deferred taxes are recorded as an asset to the extent that management assesses the utilization of such assets to be more likely than not. Management routinely assesses the realizability of the Company’s deferred income tax assets, and a valuation allowance is recognized if it is determined that deferred income tax assets may not be fully utilized in future periods. Management considers future taxable earnings in making such assessments. Numerous judgments and assumptions are inherent in the determination of future taxable earnings, including such factors as future operating conditions. When the future utilization of some portion of the deferred tax asset is determined not to be more likely than not, a valuation allowance is provided to reduce the recorded deferred tax asset. When the Company can project that a portion of the deferred tax asset can be realized through application of a portion of tax loss carryforward, the Company will record that utilization as a deferred tax benefit and recognize a deferred tax asset in the same amount. There can be no assurance that facts and circumstances will not materially change and require the Company to adjust its deferred income tax asset valuation allowance in a future period. The Company recognized a deferred tax asset, net of valuation allowance, of $-0- at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

The Company is potentially subject to taxation in many jurisdictions, and the calculation of income tax liabilities (if any) involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex income tax laws and regulations in various taxing jurisdictions. It recognizes certain income tax positions that meet a more-likely-than not recognition threshold. If the Company ultimately determines that the payment of these liabilities will be unnecessary, it will reverse the liability and recognize an income tax benefit. No liability for unrecognized tax benefit was recorded as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

Asset Retirement Obligations

The Company records estimated future asset retirement obligations pursuant to the provisions of ASC 410. ASC 410 requires entities to record the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it is incurred with a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. Subsequent to initial measurement, the asset retirement liability is required to be accreted each period. The Company’s asset retirement obligations consist of costs related to the plugging of wells, the removal of facilities and equipment, and site restoration on oil and gas properties. Capitalized costs are depleted as a component of the full cost pool using the units of production method. Although the Company had divested all of its domestic oil properties that contain operating and abandoned wells as of September 30, 2016, the Company may have obligations related to the divestiture of certain abandoned non-producing domestic leasehold properties should the new owner not perform its obligations to reclaim abandoned wells in a timely manner. Management believes the Company has been relieved from asset retirement obligation related to Infinity-Texas because of the sale of its Texas oil and gas properties in 2011 and its sale of 100% of the stock in Infinity-Texas in 2012. The Company has recognized an additional liability of $734,897 related to its former Texas oil and gas producing properties (included in asset retirement obligations) to recognize the potential personal liability of the Company and its officers for the Infinity-Texas oil and gas properties should the new owner not perform its obligations to reclaim abandoned wells in a timely manner. In addition, management believes the Company has been relieved from asset retirement obligations related to Infinity-Wyoming because of the sale of its Wyoming and Colorado oil and gas properties in 2008; however, the Company has recognized an additional liability of $981,106 related to its former Wyoming and Colorado oil and gas producing properties (included in asset retirement obligations) to recognize the potential liability of the Company and its officers should the new owner not perform its obligations to reclaim abandoned wells in a timely manner.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying values of the Company’s accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and short term notes represent the estimated fair value due to the short-term nature of the accounts.

The carrying value of the Company’s debt under its line-of-credit with related party represents its estimated fair value due to its short-term nature, its rate of interest, associated fees and expenses and initially recorded discount.

In accordance with ASC Topic 820 — Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), the Company utilizes the market approach to measure fair value for its financial assets and liabilities. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets, liabilities or a group of assets or liabilities, such as a business.

ASC 820 utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:

● Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

● Level 2 — Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities).

● Level 3 — Significant unobservable inputs (including the Company’s own assumptions in determining the fair value.

The estimated fair value of the Company’s Note and various derivative liabilities, which are related to detachable warrants issued in connection with various notes payable, were estimated using a closed-ended option pricing model utilizing assumptions related to the contractual term of the instruments, estimated volatility of the price of the Company’s common stock, interest rates, the probability of both the downward adjustment of the exercise price and the upward adjustment to the number of warrants as provided by the warrant agreement terms and non-performance risk factors, among other items. The fair values for the warrant derivatives as of and September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 were classified under the fair value hierarchy as Level 3.

The following table represents the Company’s hierarchy for its financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015:

September 30, 2016	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Liabilities:
Secured convertible note payable	$	—	$	—	$	148,480	$	148,480
Derivative liabilities		—		—		43,404		43,404
	$	—	$	—	$	191,884	$	191,884

December 31, 2015	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Liabilities:
Secured convertible note payable	$	—	$	—	$	265,929	$	265,929
Derivative liabilities		—		—		210,383		210,383
	$	—	$	—	$	476,312	$	476,312

There were no changes in valuation techniques or reclassifications of fair value measurements between Levels 1, 2 or 3 during the periods ended September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

Net Income (Loss) per Share

Pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share, basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Common share equivalents included in the diluted computation represent shares issuable upon assumed exercise of stock options and warrants using the treasury stock and “if converted” method. For periods in which net losses are incurred, weighted average shares outstanding is the same for basic and diluted loss per share calculations, as the inclusion of common share equivalents would have an anti-dilutive effect.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the prior period were reclassified to conform to the current period’s financial statement presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported net loss or accumulated deficit.

On May 7, 2015, the Company completed the May 2015 Private Placement of a $12.0 million principal amount secured convertible note (the “Note”) and Warrant to purchase 1,800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value. The placement agent for the Company in the transaction will receive a fee of 6% of cash proceeds, or $600,000, if and when the Company receives the full cash proceeds. It received $27,000 of such amount at the closing. In addition, the placement agent was granted a warrant to purchase 240,000 shares of common stock at $5.00 per share, which warrant is immediately exercisable.

The Note and Warrant were issued pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated May 7, 2015, by and between the Company and the Investor. The May 2015 Private Placement was made pursuant to an exemption from registration under such Act. At the closing, the Investor acquired the secured convertible note by paying $450,000 in cash and issuing a secured promissory note, secured by cash, with an aggregate initial principal amount of $9,550,000 (the “Investor Note”). Assuming all amounts payable to the Company under the Investor Note are paid without any offset or default, the May 2015 Private Placement will result in gross proceeds of $10.0 million before placement agent fees and other expenses associated with the transaction, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. The Company used the proceeds from this offering to retire certain outstanding obligations, including the 2015 area and training fees relating to its Nicaraguan Concessions, and to provide working capital. As of September 30, 2016, an additional $60,000 was funded under the Investor Note for a total of $510,000 advanced to the Company prior to any repayments.

The Company is to receive the remaining cash proceeds upon each voluntary or mandatory prepayment of the Investor Note. An Investor may, at its option and at any time, voluntarily prepay the Investor Note, in whole or in part. The Investor Note is also subject to mandatory prepayment, in whole or in part, upon the occurrence of one or more of the following mandatory prepayment events:

(1) Mandatory Prepayment upon Conversion – At any time the Investor has converted more than $2.0 million principal amount of the Note, representing the original issue discount of the Note, the Investor will be required to prepay the Investor Note, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, for each subsequent conversion of the Note.

(2) Mandatory Prepayment upon Mandatory Prepayment Notices – The Company may require the Investor to prepay the Investor Note by delivering a mandatory prepayment notice to the Investor, subject to (i) the satisfaction of certain equity conditions, (ii) the Company’s receipt of all Governmental Authorizations, as defined in the Purchase Agreement, necessary to commence drilling on at least five Properties, also as defined in the Purchase Agreement, within the Nicaraguan Concessions, and (iii) the Company obtaining forbearance agreements from certain third parties to whom the Company owes obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may not request a mandatory prepayment if after giving effect to such proposed mandatory prepayment, the Company would hold more than $4.0 million in cash or if prepayment under the Investor Note for the preceding sixty calendar day period would exceed $2.0 million.

The Investor Note also contains certain offset rights, which if executed, would reduce the amount outstanding under the Note and the Investor Note and the cash proceeds received by the Company.

Description of the Secured Convertible Note

The Note is secured to the Company’s existing and future indebtedness and is secured by all of the assets of the Company, excluding the Nicaraguan Concessions, and to the extent and as provided in the related security documents.

The Note is convertible at any time at the option of the holder into shares of the Company’s common stock at $5.00 per share (the “Conversion Price”). The Note matures on the three-year anniversary of the issuance date thereof. If the Company issues or sells shares of its common stock, rights to purchase shares of its common stock, or securities convertible into shares of its common stock for a price per share that is less than the Conversion Price then in effect, the then current Conversion Price will be decreased to equal such lower price. The foregoing adjustments to the Conversion Price for future stock issues will not apply to certain exempt issuances, including issuances pursuant to certain employee benefit plans. In addition, the Conversion Price is subject to adjustment upon stock splits, reverse stock splits, and similar capital changes.

On the first business day of each month beginning on the earlier of the (i) effectiveness of a registration statement the Company files to register the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Note or exercise of the Warrant, as defined below, or (ii) sixth month following the date of the Note through and including the maturity date (the “Installment Dates”), the Company will pay to the Note holder an amount equal to (i) one-thirtieth (1/30th) of the original principal amount of the Note (or the principal outstanding on the Installment Date, if less) plus (ii) the accrued and unpaid interest with respect to such principal plus (iii) the accrued and unpaid late charges (if any) with respect to such principal and interest. The Investor has the ability to defer or accelerate such monthly payments in its sole discretion.

Prior to the maturity date, the Note will bear interest at 8% per annum (or 18% per annum during an event of default) with interest payable in cash or in shares of Common Stock monthly in arrears on the first business day of each calendar month following the issuance date.

Each monthly payment may be made in cash, in shares of the Company’s common stock, or in a combination of cash and shares of its common stock. The Company’s ability to make such payments with shares of its common stock will be subject to various equity conditions, including the existence of an effective registration statement covering the resale of the shares issued in payment (or, in the alternative, the eligibility of the shares issuable pursuant to the Note and the Warrant, as defined below, for sale without restriction under Rule 144 and without the need for the Company to remain current with its public filing obligations) and certain minimum trading price and trading volume. Such shares will be valued, as of the date on which notice is given by the Company that payment will be made in shares, at the lower of (1) the then applicable Conversion Price and (2) a price that is 80.0% of the arithmetic average of the three lowest weighted average prices of the Company’s common stock during the twenty-trading day period ending two trading days before the applicable determination date (the “Measurement Period”). If the Company elects to pay such monthly payment in shares of the Company’s stock it is required to pre-deliver shares of the Company’s common stock and is required to deliver additional shares, if any, to a true-up such number of shares to the number of shares required to be delivered on the applicable Installment Date pursuant to the calculation above.

At any time after the issuance date, the Company will have the right to redeem all or any portion of the outstanding principal balance of the Note plus all accrued but unpaid interest and any other charges at a price equal to 125% of such amount provided that (i) the arithmetic average of the closing sale price of the common stock for any twenty (20) consecutive Trading Days equals or exceeds 200% of the Conversion Price and (ii) among other conditions, there is an effective registration statement covering the resale of the shares issued in payment or, in the alternative, the eligibility of the shares issuable pursuant to the Note and the Warrant for sale without restriction under Rule 144 and without the need for the Company to remain current with its public filing obligations. The Investor has the right to convert any or all of the amount to be redeemed into common stock prior to redemption.

Upon the occurrence of an event of default under the Note, the Investor may, so long as the event of default is continuing, require the Company to redeem all or a portion of its Note. Each portion of the Note subject to such redemption must be redeemed by the Company, in cash, at a price equal to the greater of (1) 125% of the amount being redeemed, including principal, accrued and unpaid interest, and accrued and unpaid late charges, and (2) the product of (I) the amount being redeemed and (II) the quotient determined by dividing (A) the greatest closing sale price of the shares of common stock during the period beginning on the date immediately preceding the event of default and ending on the date the holder delivers a redemption notice to the Company, by (B) the lowest Conversion Price in effect during such period.

Subject to certain conditions, the Investor may also require the Company to redeem all or a portion of its Note in connection with a transaction that results in a Change of Control, as defined in the Note. The Company must redeem each portion of the Note subject to such redemption in cash at a price equal to the greater of (1) 125% of the amount being redeemed (including principal, accrued and unpaid interest, and accrued and unpaid late charges), and (2) the product of (I) the amount being redeemed and (II) the quotient determined by dividing (A) the greatest closing sale price of the shares of common stock during the period beginning on the date immediately preceding the earlier to occur of (i) the consummation of the Change of Control and (ii) the public announcement of such Change of Control and ending on the date the holder delivers a redemption notice to the Company, by (B) the lowest Conversion Price in effect during such period.

Description of the Warrant.

As a part of the May 2015 Private Placement, the Company issued a Warrant to the Investor giving it the right to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share. The Warrant is exercisable commencing six months from the date of issuance and the exercise prices for the Warrant is subject to adjustment for certain events, such as stock splits and stock dividends. If the Company issues or sells shares of its common stock, rights to purchase shares of its common stock, or securities convertible into shares of its common stock for a price per share that is less than the exercise price then in effect, the exercise price of the Warrant will be decreased to equal such lesser price. Upon each such adjustment, the number of the shares of the Company’s common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant will increase proportionately. The foregoing adjustments to the exercise price for future stock issues will not apply to certain exempt issuances, including issuances pursuant to certain employee benefit plans. In addition, the Conversion Price is subject to adjustment upon stock splits, reverse stock splits, and similar capital changes. The Warrant will expire on the seventh (7th) anniversary of the date of issuance.

9.99% Restriction on Conversion of Note and Exercise of Warrant

The Investor has no right to convert the Note or exercise the Warrant to the extent that such conversion or exercise would result in the Investor being the beneficial owner in excess of 9.99% of the Company’s common stock. The Company was required to hold a meeting of its shareholders to approve increase the number of its authorized shares to meet its obligations under the Purchase Agreement to have reserved 200% of the shares issuable upon conversion of the Note and exercise of the Warrant. The Company held its Annual Meeting of Shareholders on September 25, 2015 and the shareholders approved the reverse split of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding shares, which satisfied this requirement.

Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with the May 2015 Private Placement, the Company and the Investor entered into a Registration Rights Agreement under which the Company is required, on or before 45 days after the closing of the May 2015 Private Placement, to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) covering the resale of 130% of the shares of the Company’s common stock issuable pursuant to the Note and Warrant and to use its best efforts to have the registration declared effective as soon as practicable. The Company will be subject to certain monetary penalties, as set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement, if the registration statement is not filed or does not remain available for the resale (subject to certain allowable grace periods) of the Registrable Securities, as such term is defined in the Registration Rights Agreement. The Company filed the required registration statement on Form S-1 on June 19, 2015 and the Securities and Exchange Commission declared the Form S-1 effective on October 9, 2015 and has thereby satisfied this requirement.

Participation Rights

If, during the period beginning on the closing date and ending on the four (4) year anniversary of the closing date, the Company offers, sells, grants any option to purchase, or otherwise disposes of any of its or its subsidiaries’ equity or equity equivalent securities (a “Subsequent Placement”), the Investor will have the right to participate for 50% of any such future Subsequent Placement.

Description of the Financial Accounting and Reporting

The Company elected to account for the Note on its fair value basis, therefore, the fair value of the Note, including its embedded conversion feature, were estimated together utilizing a binomial lattice model on its origination date and the Black-Sholes model at September 30, 2016. Such assumptions included the following:

	Upon Issuance			As of September 30, 2016
Volatility – range		102.6	%		228.8	%
Risk-free rate		1.00	%		0.88	%
Contractual term		3.0 years			1.6 years
Conversion price	$	5.00		$	5.00
Par value of note	$	540,000		$	155,952

The Company received $450,000 of proceeds at the date of issuance and after repayments and additional funding the net principal balance was $129,960 as of September 30, 2016. The fair market value of the Note was estimated to be $682,400 as of the issuance date, $265,929 at December 31, 2015 and $148,480 as of September 30, 2016. The net $67,591 change in fair market value of the Note is included in change in fair value of secured notes payable in the accompanying statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

The Warrant issued to purchase 1,800,000 common shares in connection with the Note was treated as a derivative liability for accounting purposes due to its ratchet and anti-dilution provisions. Accordingly, the Company has estimated the fair value of the warrant derivative as of the issuance date of the Note was issued at $8,034,007, which has been charged to non-operating expense during the year ended December 31, 2015. The estimated fair value of the warrant derivative as of September 30, 2016 was $37,102, representing a change of $145,415 from December 31, 2015, which is included in changes in derivative fair value in the accompanying statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. See Note 6.

The warrant issued to purchase 240,000 shares issued as part of the placement fee in connection with the Note was treated as a derivative liability for accounting purposes due to its ratchet and anti-dilution provisions. Changes in the fair value of the warrant derivative liability totaled $19,389 (reduction in the derivative liability) through September 30, 2016, which is included in changes in derivative fair value in the accompanying statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The warrant derivative liability balance related to such warrants was $4,947 and $24,336 as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. See Note 6.

The Company is required to make monthly installment payments in the form of cash, common stock or a combination of both. The Holder has suspended such installments during the third quarter 2016. The Company elected to make such monthly payments in the form of common stock and has delivered a total of 4,281,477 shares of common stock representing required principal repayments ($220,040 principal balances) and 305,522 representing interest payments ($11,779 interest payments) during the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

Line-of-Credit with Related Party

The Company entered into a line-of-credit facility on September 23, 2013 that provides it with borrowing capacity on a revolving basis up to a maximum of $50,000, which was increased to $75,000 at August 28, 2015 and an initial maturity of November 28, 2013. The line of credit is convertible to common stock at a rate of $5.00 per share. The entity providing the credit facility is owned by an officer of another corporation for which Infinity’s president and chairman of the board serves as president and chairman of the board. The facility is unsecured, bears interest at 8% per annum, and was renewed at its maturity several times with its current maturity date as November 28, 2016. In consideration for the origination of the line of credit facility and the various renewals, the Company granted the lender common stock purchase warrants. The most recent renewal was on August 28, 2016 whereby the Company extended the line-of-credit expiration date to November 28, 2016 and issued a warrant to purchase 10,000 common shares at an exercise price of $5.00 per share, which warrants were immediately exercisable and expire on August 28, 2021. The Company estimated the fair value of the warrants at $308 as of the August 28, 2016 grant date, which amount was recorded as debt issuance costs and will be amortized to interest expense over the extended term of the line-of-credit.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, $1,434 and $269,683, respectively, of debt issuance costs amortized (including amounts immediately expensed) to interest expense and the remaining unamortized balance was $198 as of September 30, 2016, which is reflected as a discount on the outstanding loan balance.

Note Payable – Short-term

On December 27, 2013 the Company borrowed $1,050,000 under an unsecured credit facility with a private, third-party lender. The facility is represented by a promissory note (the “December 2013 Note”) with an original maturity date of March 12, 2014.

In connection with the December 2013 Note, the Company granted the lender a warrant (the “Warrant”) exercisable to purchase 100,000 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $15.00 per share. In connection with an extension to April 2015, the parties amended the date for exercise of the Warrant to be a period commencing April 7, 2015 and expiring on the third anniversary of such date. The Company issued no additional warrants to the lender in connection with the extension of the Note to the New Maturity Date. If the Company fails to pay the Note on or before its New Maturity Date, the number of shares issuable under the Warrant increases to 1,333,333 and the exercise price drops to $0.75 per share. All other terms of the Warrant remain the same. The Warrant has been treated as a derivative liability whereby the value of Warrant is estimated at the date of grant and recorded as a derivative liability and as a discount on the note payable. The warrant liability is revalued to fair value at each reporting date with the corresponding income (loss) reflected in the statement of operations as change in derivative liability. The discount is amortized ratably through the original maturity date and each of the extended maturity dates.

In connection with an extension of the December 2013 Note to April 7, 2016, the Company agreed to enter into a definitive revenue sharing agreement with the lender to grant the lender under the revenue sharing agreement an irrevocable right to receive a monthly payment equal to one half of one percent (1/2%) of the gross revenue derived from the share of all hydrocarbons produced at the wellhead from the Nicaraguan Concessions and any other oil and gas concessions that the Company and its affiliates may acquire in the future. This percent increased to one percent (1%) when the Company did not pay the December 2013 Note in full by August 7, 2014. Therefore, the revenue sharing agreement is fixed at one percent (1%). The value of the one percent (1.0%) definitive revenue sharing agreement granted to the lender as consideration for the extension of the maturity date to December 7, 2014 was estimated to be $964,738. Such amount was recorded as a reduction of oil and gas properties and as a discount on the renewed note payable and amortized ratably over the extended term of the note.

In connection with the extension of the maturity date of the December 2013 Note to April 7, 2016, the Company also (i) issued the lender 20,000 shares of restricted common stock; (ii) decreased the exercise price of the warrant to $5.00 per share and extended the term of the warrant to a period commencing on the New Maturity Date and expiring on the third anniversary of such date; and (iii) paid $50,000 toward amounts due under the December 2013 Note. The Company issued no additional warrants to the lender in connection with the extension of the Note to the New Maturity Date. If the Company fails to pay the December 2013 Note on or before its New Maturity Date, the number of shares issuable under the Warrant increases to 1,333,333 and the exercise price drops to $0.75 per share. All other terms of the warrant remain the same. The December 2013 Note may be prepaid without penalty at any time. The Note is subordinated to all existing and future senior indebtedness, as such terms are defined in the Note. The December 2013 Note is in technical default and the Company is seeking an extension of the maturity date of this Note (See Note 11) from the holder; however, there can be no assurances such efforts will be successful.

The Warrant has been treated as a derivative liability whereby the value of Warrant is estimated at the date of grant and recorded as a derivative liability and as a discount on the note payable. The warrant liability is revalued to fair value at each reporting date with the corresponding income (loss) reflected in the statement of operations as change in derivative liability. The discount is amortized ratably through the original maturity date and each of the extended maturity dates. The Company recognized the value of the 20,000 shares of common stock issued ($104,000) and the increased value of the outstanding warrants due to the decrease in their exercise price ($68,716) as an additional discount on the note payable to be amortized ratably over the extended term of the underlying note.

The discount recorded as of the December 27, 2013 origination date of the note and as a result of the amendments to the Note terms and extensions of the maturity date has been amortized ratably over the term and extended terms of the note. Discount amortization expense aggregated $50,526 and $68,336 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and the remaining unamortized discount was $-0- as of September 30, 2016. The related warrant derivative liability balance was $745 at fair value as of September 30, 2016. See Note 6.

Other than the Note described above, during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 the Company had short-term notes outstanding with entities or individuals as follows:

● On July 7, 2015 the Company borrowed a total of $50,000 from an individual under a convertible note payable with the conversion rate of $5.60 per share. The term of the note was for a period of 90 days and bears interest at 8% per annum. In connection with the loan, the Company issued the entity a warrant for the purchase of 5,000 shares of common stock at $5.60 per share for a period of five years from the date of the note. The terms of the note and warrant provide that should the note and interest not be paid in full by its maturity date, the number of warrants automatically increases to 10,000 shares and the exercise price remains at $5.60 per share. The ratchet provision in the stock purchase warrant requires that the warrant be accounted for as derivative liability. The Company recorded the estimated fair value of the warrant totaling $22,314 as a discount on note payable and as a derivative liability in the same amount, as of the origination date. On October 7, 2015, the note was extended for an additional 90 days or until January 7, 2016 and later to May 7, 2016 and ultimately to October 7, 2016. The Company is currently pursuing an additional extension from the Holder. In consideration, the Company granted the lender common stock purchase warrants exercisable to purchase 5,000 shares of common stock on each extension date at an exercise price of $5.60 per share, which warrants were immediately exercisable and expire in five years. The value of the 5,000 newly issued warrants issued on January 7, 2016 totaled $379, and $131 on May 7, 2016 both of which are being amortized over the extension period (through October 7, 2016). Discount amortization totaled $765 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and the remaining unamortized discount was $7 as of September 30, 2016. The related warrant derivative liability balance was $359 at fair value as of September 30, 2016. See Note 6.

● On July 15, 2015 the Company borrowed a total of $35,000 from an individual under a convertible note payable with the conversion rate of $5.60 per share. The term of the note was for a period of 90 days and bears interest at 8% per annum. In connection with the loan, the Company issued the entity a warrant for the purchase of 3,500 shares of common stock at $5.60 per share for a period of five years from the date of the note. The terms of the note and warrant provide that should the note and interest not be paid in full by its maturity date, the number of warrants automatically increases to 7,000 shares and the exercise price remains at $5.60 per share. The ratchet provision in the stock purchase warrant requires that the warrant be accounted for as a derivative liability. The Company recorded the estimated fair value of the warrant totaling $11,827 as a discount on note payable and as a derivative liability in the same amount, as of the origination date. On October 15, 2015, the note was extended for an additional 90 days or until January 15, 2016 and later to October 15, 2016. The Company is currently pursuing an additional extension from the Holder. In consideration, the Company granted the lender common stock purchase warrants exercisable to purchase an aggregate of 3,500 shares of common stock on each extension date at an exercise price of $5.60 per share, which warrants were immediately exercisable and expire in five years. The value of the 3,500 newly issued warrants on January 15, 2016 totaled $267 and $74 on May 15, 2016, both of which are being amortized over the extension period (through October 15, 2016). Discount amortization totaled $571 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and the remaining unamortized discount was $8 as of September 30, 2016. The related warrant derivative liability balance was $251 at fair value as of September 30, 2016. See Note 6.

Stock Options

Note 5 – Stock Options

The Company applies ASC 718, Stock Compensation, which requires companies to recognize compensation expense for share-based payments based on the estimated fair value of the awards. ASC 718 also requires tax benefits relating to the deductibility of increases in the value of equity instruments issued under share-based compensation arrangements to be presented as financing cash inflows in the statement of cash flows. Compensation cost is recognized based on the grant-date fair value for all share-based payments granted, and is estimated in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718.

In May 2006, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2006 Plan”), under which both incentive and non-statutory stock options may be granted to employees, officers, non-employee directors and consultants. An aggregate of 47,000 shares of the Company’s common stock are reserved for issuance under the 2006 Plan. In June 2005, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2005 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2005 Plan”), under which both incentive and non-statutory stock options may be granted to employees, officers, non-employee directors and consultants. An aggregate of 47,500 shares of the Company’s common stock were reserved for issuance under the 2005 and 2006 Plans however such Plans have now expired and no further issuances can be made. Options granted under the 2005 Plan and 2006 Plan allow for the purchase of common stock at prices not less than the fair market value of such stock at the date of grant, become exercisable immediately or as directed by the Company’s Board of Directors and generally expire ten years after the date of grant. The Company also has issued other stock options not pursuant to a formal plan with terms similar to the 2005 and 2006 Plans.

The Annual Meeting of Stockholders was held on September 25, 2015 and the stockholders approved the Infinity Energy Resources, Inc. 2015 Stock Option and Restricted Stock Plan (the “2015 Plan”) and reserved 500,000 shares for issuance under the Plan.

As of September 30, 2016, 500,000 shares were available for future grants under the 2015 Plan as all other Plans have now expired.

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected term of the option award, expected stock price volatility and expected dividends. These estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management judgment. For purposes of estimating the expected term of options granted, the Company aggregates option recipients into groups that have similar option exercise behavioral traits. Expected volatilities used in the valuation model are based on the expected volatility that would be used by an independent market participant in the valuation of certain of the Company’s warrants. The risk-free rate for the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The Company’s forfeiture rate assumption used in determining its stock-based compensation expense is estimated based on historical data. The actual forfeiture rate could differ from these estimates. There were no stock options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

The following table summarizes stock option activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2016:

	Number of Options			Weighted Average Exercise Price Per Share			Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term		Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding at December 31, 2015		411,450		$	38.04			4.8 years	$	—

The Company recorded stock-based compensation expense in connection with the vesting of options granted aggregating $7,598 and $100,972 during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

The unrecognized compensation cost as of September 30, 2016 related to the unvested stock options as of that date was $-0-.

Note 6 – Derivative Instruments

Derivatives – Warrants Issued Relative to Notes Payable

The estimated fair value of the Company’s derivative liabilities, all of which are related to the detachable warrants issued in connection with various notes payable and the secured convertible note, were estimated using a closed-ended option pricing model utilizing assumptions related to the contractual term of the instruments, estimated volatility of the price of the Company’s common stock, interest rates, the probability of both the downward adjustment of the exercise price and the upward adjustment to the number of warrants as provided by the note payable and warrant agreement terms (Note 2 and 3) and non-performance risk factors, among other items (ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements (“ASC 820”) fair value hierarchy Level 3). The detachable warrants issued in connection with the secured convertible note (See Note 2), the December 2013 Note (See Note 3) and the two other short-term notes payable (See Note 3) contain ratchet and anti-dilution provisions that remain in effect during the term of the warrant while the ratchet and anti-dilution provisions of the other notes payable cease when the related note payable is extinguished. When the note payable containing such ratchet and anti-dilution provisions is extinguished, the derivative liability will be adjusted to fair value and the resulting derivative liability will be transitioned from a liability to equity as of such date. The derivative liability associated with the warrants issued in connection with the secured convertible note payable will remain effect until such time as the underlying warrant is exercised or terminated and the resulting derivative liability will be transitioned from a liability to equity as of such date.

The Company has issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,174,000 common shares in connection with various outstanding debt instruments which require derivative accounting treatment as of September 30, 2016. A comparison of the assumptions used in calculating estimated fair value of such derivative liabilities as of September 30, 2016 is as follows:

	As of September 30, 2016
Volatility – range		169.6% - 226.1 %
Risk-free rate		0.88% - 1.42 %
Contractual term		1.58 - 5.58 years
Exercise price		$5.00 - $5.60
Number of warrants in aggregate		2,174,000

Note 8 – Income Taxes

For income tax purposes, the Company has net operating loss carry-forwards of approximately $66,185,000 as of December 31, 2015, which expire from 2025 through 2030. The Company has provided a 100% valuation allowance due to the uncertainty of realizing the tax benefits from its net deferred tax asset.

The Company has not completed the filing of tax returns for the tax years 2012 through 2015. Therefore, all such tax returns are open to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

The Internal Revenue Code contains provisions under Section 382 which limit a company’s ability to utilize net operating loss carry-forwards in the event that it has experienced a more than 50% change in ownership over a three-year period. Current estimates prepared by the Company on a preliminary basis indicate that no ownership changes have occurred, and are currently not subject to an annual limitation, but may be further limited by additional ownership changes which may occur in the future.

Note 9 – Commitments and Contingencies

The Company has not maintained insurance coverage on its U.S domestic oil and gas properties for several years. The Company is not in compliance with Federal and State laws regarding the U.S. domestic oil and gas properties. The Company’s known compliance issues relate to the Texas Railroad Commission regarding administrative filings and renewal permits relative to its Texas oil and gas properties that were sold in 2012. The ultimate resolution of these compliance issues could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Nicaraguan Concessions

In April 2011, we filed with the Nicaraguan government an Environmental Impact Assessment (“EIA”) covering proposed seismic activities on our Nicaraguan Concessions. The filing of the EIA was followed by a comment period during which there was interaction between us the Ministerio del Ambiente y los Recursos Naturales de Nicaragua, an agency of the Nicaraguan government; and the autonomous regions of Nicaragua that are nearest to the Nicaraguan Concessions. In April 2013 the EIA was formally approved by the Nicaraguan government and we were cleared to commence 2-D and 3-D seismic mapping activities in the area. In late 2013 and early 2014, we contracted with a fully integrated Geoscience company that provides geological, geophysical and reservoir services to the global oil and gas industry, to conduct 2-D and 3-D seismic data covering selected areas within the boundaries of the Nicaraguan Concessions.

The final approval of the EIA by the Nicaraguan government of our environment impact study on April 13, 2013, began Sub-Period 2 for both the Tyra and Perlas Blocks as defined in the Nicaraguan Concessions. The Company believes it has satisfied the acquisition, processing and interpretation of Seismic data required in Sub-Period 2 for both the Perlas and Tyra Blocks. Therefore, it is now in Sub-Period 3 of the exploration phase of the 30-year Concession for both Perlas and Tyra as of September 30, 2015. Sub-Period 3 of the Nicaraguan Concessions requires the drilling of at least one exploratory well on the Perlas Block during 2016 and the shooting of additional seismic on the Tyra Block. The Company plans to identify at least one potential drilling site on the Perlas block as required in Sub-Period 3 and will have to perform supplemental EIA work prior to requesting and receiving the permit to drill from the Nicaraguan government. The work plan on the Tyra block for Sub-Period 3 requires the Company to shoot additional seismic, which is estimated to cost approximately $2,500,000 prior to the commencement of exploratory drilling. The Company is seeking a waiver of the additional seismic mapping on the Tyra Block and extension of time to complete its initial well from the Nicaraguan government. There can be no assurance that it will be able to obtain such waiver of the requirements.

During late December 2013, the Company completed the 2-D seismic survey activities in the area as required under both of the Nicaraguan Concessions at that point. It believes that the newly acquired 2-D seismic data, together with the previously acquired reprocessed 2-D seismic, has helped it further evaluate the structures that were previously identified with 2-D seismic in the Eocene Zone. The Company’s geological consultants have estimated that these Eocene structures may contain recoverable hydrocarbons (principally oil) in place. In addition, the new 2-D seismic acquired in 2013 provided the first geological information regarding the potential for oil resources in the Cretaceous Zone, which the Company could not evaluate using less precise older 2-D seismic mapping. It has identified multiple promising sites on the Perlas Block for exploratory drilling and will plan the drilling of initial exploratory wells in order to determine the existence of commercial hydrocarbon reserves, given sufficient financing. The Company believes that it has performed all work necessary as of September 30, 2015 to proceed to Sub-Period 3 for the Perlas Block as defined in the Nicaraguan Concessions, which requires the drilling of at least one exploratory well on the Perlas Block within the following one-year period. The Company must first prepare and submit a supplemental EIA to the Nicaraguan government before the drilling permit can be issued on the Perlas Block, which had not been completed as of September 30, 2016.

The Company has not yet submitted the EIA supplement to the Nicaraguan Government and therefore has not received a drilling permit; however, assuming that Government does accept the supplemental EIA and grant the drilling permit, the Company will be required to drill at least one exploratory well on the Perlas Block during 2016 or risk being in default and losing its rights under the Nicaraguan Concessions.

The Company is in technical default of the Nicaraguan Concession because it has not provided the required letters of credit to the Nicaraguan Government and is delinquent on the payment of approximately $155,567 for the annual training program and area fees for 2016 that remains unpaid and outstanding as of September 30, 2016. In accordance with the Nicaraguan Concession agreements, the Company had previously provided the Ministry of Energy with the required letters of credit in the amounts of $443,100 for Perlas (expired March 2014) and $408,450 for Tyra (expired September 2014). The Company had also made all required expenditures related to the Nicaraguan Concessions for training programs and as “area fees,” for each respective year for 2010 through 2015. However, approximately $155,567 was due and payable in March 2016 for 2016 training program and area fees that remains unpaid and outstanding as of September 30, 2016. The Company is attempting to negotiate the renewal and increase of the required letters of credit, which total $1,356,227 for the Perlas block and $278,450 for the Tyra block with the Nicaraguan Government and its lenders; however, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in the regard. The Nicaraguan Government is in an election year in 2016, therefore such efforts have been delayed until the election is over. The Company considers it is fully in compliance with the terms of the Nicaraguan Concessions agreements, except for the renewal of the expired letters of credit and the delinquent payment for the 2016 training program and area fees.

The Company must raise substantial amounts of debt and equity capital in the immediate future in order to fund: (1) the annual training program and area fees for 2016: (2) the required letters of credit to the Nicaraguan Government; (3) the drilling of at least one exploratory well on the Perlas Block of the Nicaraguan Concessions during 2016; (4) the shooting of additional seismic on the Tyra Block of the Nicaraguan Concessions if it is unable to negotiate a waiver of such requirement from the Nicaraguan government; (5) normal day-to-day operations and corporate overhead; and (6) outstanding debt and financial obligations as they become due. These are substantial operational and financial issues that must be successfully mitigated during 2016 or the Company’s ability to satisfy the conditions necessary to maintain its Nicaragua Concessions will be in significant doubt. The Company completed the May 2015 Private Placement in May 2015 in an effort to obtain its required capital. See Note 2 to the Financial Statements.

The Company is also seeking offers from industry operators and other third parties for interests in the acreage in the Nicaraguan Concessions in exchange for cash and a carried interest in exploration and development operations or other joint venture arrangement. Accordingly, it intends to finance its business strategy through external financing, which may include debt and equity capital raised in public and private offerings, joint ventures, sale of working or other interests, employment of working capital and cash flow from operations, if any, and net proceeds from the sales of assets.

The following charts set forth the minimum work programs required under for the Perlas and Tyra blocks comprising the Concessions in order for the Company to retain them.

Revenue Sharing Commitments

On March 23, 2009, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated effective as of March 23, 2009, with Offshore Finance, LLC, an accredited investor, to issue a subordinated promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of up to $1,275,000 and a one percent (1%) revenue sharing interest in the Nicaraguan Concessions. Off-Shore funded a total of $1,275,000 and subsequently converted the subordinated promissory note to common stock.

Under the Revenue Sharing Agreement (the “Revenue Agreement”), Infinity assigned to Off-Shore a monthly payment (the “RSP”) equal to the revenue derived from one percent (1%) of Infinity’s share of the hydrocarbons produced at the wellhead from the Nicaraguan Concessions. The RSP will bear its proportionate share of all costs incurred to deliver the hydrocarbons to the point of sale to an unaffiliated purchaser, including its share of production, severance and similar taxes, and certain additional costs. The RSP will be paid to Off-Shore by the last day of each month based on the revenue received by Infinity from the purchaser of the production during the previous month from the Nicaraguan Concessions. The Revenue Agreement does not create any obligation for Infinity to maintain or develop the Nicaraguan Concessions, and does not create any rights in the Nicaraguan Concessions for Off-Shore. In connection with its dissolution Off-Shore assigned its RSP to its individual members.

On June 6, 2009 the Company entered into a Revenue Sharing Agreement with the officers and directors for services provided. Infinity assigned to officers and directors a monthly payment equal to the revenue derived from one percent (1%) of Infinity’s share of the hydrocarbons produced at the wellhead from the Nicaraguan Concessions. The RSP will bear its proportionate share of all costs incurred to deliver the hydrocarbons to the point of sale to an unaffiliated purchaser, including its share of production, severance and similar taxes, and certain additional costs.

The RSP shall be paid by the last day of each month based on the revenue received by Infinity from the purchaser of the production during the previous month from the Nicaraguan Concessions. The Revenue Agreement does not create any obligation for Infinity to maintain or develop the Nicaraguan Concessions, and does not create any rights in the Nicaraguan Concessions for officers and directors.

The Company intends to seek joint venture or working interest partners (the “Farmout”) prior to the commencement of any exploratory drilling operations on the Nicaraguan Concessions. On September 8, 2009 the Company entered into a Revenue Sharing Agreement with Jeff Roberts to assist the Company with its technical studies of gas and oil holdings in Nicaragua and managing and assisting in the Farmout. Infinity assigned to Jeff Roberts a monthly payment equal to the revenue derived from one percent (1%) of Infinity’s share of the hydrocarbons produced at the wellhead from the Nicaraguan Concessions. The RSP will bear its proportionate share of all costs incurred to deliver the hydrocarbons to the point of sale to an unaffiliated purchaser, including its share of production, severance and similar taxes, and certain additional costs. The RSP shall be paid to Jeff Roberts by the last day of each month based on the revenue received by Infinity from the purchaser of the production during the previous month from the Nicaraguan Concessions. The Revenue Agreement does not create any obligation for Infinity to maintain or develop the Nicaraguan Concessions, and does not create any rights in the Nicaraguan Concessions for Jeff Roberts.

In connection with the extension of the December 2013 Note with a $1,050,000 principal balance issued in December 2013, the Company entered into a Revenue Sharing Agreement in May 2014. Infinity assigned to the note holder a monthly payment equal to the revenue derived from one percent (1%) of 8/8ths of Infinity’s share of the hydrocarbons produced at the wellhead from the Nicaraguan Concessions and any other oil and gas concessions that the Company and its affiliates may acquire in the future. The RSP will bear its proportionate share of all costs incurred to deliver the hydrocarbons to the point of sale to an unaffiliated purchaser, including its share of production, severance and similar taxes, and certain additional costs. The RSP shall be paid by the last day of each month based on the revenue received by Infinity from the purchaser of the production during the previous month from the Nicaraguan Concessions. The Revenue Sharing Agreement does not create any obligation for Infinity to maintain or develop the Nicaraguan Concessions.

Lack of Compliance with Law Regarding Domestic Properties

Infinity has not been in compliance with existing federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations for its previously owned domestic oil and gas properties and this could have a material or significantly adverse effect upon the liquidity, capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position of Infinity. All domestic oil and gas properties held by Infinity – Wyoming and Infinity-Texas were disposed of prior to September 30, 2016; however, the Company may remain liable for certain asset retirement costs should the new owners not complete their obligations. Management believes the total asset retirement obligations recorded of $1,716,003 as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 are sufficient to cover any potential noncompliance liabilities relative to the plugging of abandoned wells, the removal of facilities and equipment, and site restoration on oil and gas properties for its former oil and gas properties. The Company has not maintained insurance on the domestic properties for a number of years nor has it owned/produced any oil & gas properties for a number of years.

Gain on Derecognition of Liabilities

The Company has been generally unable to pay trade payables for several years as a result of its financial condition and lack of financial resources. Many trade payables have aged beyond their respective Statute of Limitations with respect to the creditors’ ability to enforce collection though legal proceedings. Management has reviewed the status of its trade payables and have written-off the remaining balances for those that have aged beyond the expiration date of their applicable statute of limitation. The gain from derecognition of liabilities was $1,134,082 and $174,457 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Litigation

The Company is subject to numerous claims and legal actions in which vendors are claiming breach of contract due to the Company’s failure to pay amounts due. The Company believes that it has made adequate provision for these claims in the accompanying financial statements.

The Company is currently involved in litigation as follows:

●	In October 2012 the State of Texas filed a lawsuit naming Infinity-Texas, the Company and the corporate officers of Infinity-Texas, seeking $30,000 of reclamation costs associated with a single well, in addition to administrative expenses and penalties. The Company engaged in negotiations with the State of Texas in late 2012 and early 2013 and reached a settlement agreement that would reduce the aggregate liability, in this action and any extension of this to other Texas wells, to $45,103, which amount has been paid. Certain performance obligations remain which must be satisfied in order to finally settle and dismiss the matter.
	Pending satisfactory performance of the performance obligations and their acceptance by the State of Texas, the officers have potential liability regarding the above matter, and the officers are held personally harmless by indemnification provisions of the Company. Therefore, to the extent they might actually occur, these liabilities are the obligations of the Company. Management estimates that the liabilities associated with this matter will not exceed $780,000, calculated as $30,000 for each of the 26 Infinity-Texas operated wells. This related liability, less the payment made to the State of Texas in 2012 in the amount of $45,103, is included in the asset retirement obligation on the accompanying balance sheets.
●	Cambrian Consultants America, Inc. (“Cambrian”) filed an action in the District Court of Harris County, Texas, number CV2014-55719, on September 26, 2014 against Infinity Energy Resources, Inc. resulting from certain professional consulting services provided for quality control and management of seismic operations during November and December 2013 on the Nicaraguan Concessions. Cambrian provided these services pursuant to a Master Consulting Agreement with Infinity, dated November 20, 2013, and has claimed breach of contract for failure to pay amounts due. On December 8, 2014, a default judgment was entered against the Company in the amount of $96,877 plus interest and attorney fees. The Company has included the impact of this litigation as a liability in its accounts payable. The Company will seek to settle the default judgment when it has the financial resources to do so.
●	Torrey Hills Capital, Inc. (“Torrey”) notified the Company by letter, dated August 15, 2014, of its demand for the payment of $56,000, which it alleged was unpaid and owed under a consulting agreement, dated October 18, 2013. The parties entered into a consulting agreement under which Torrey agreed to provide investor relations services in exchange for payment of $7,000 per month and the issuance of 15,000 shares of common stock. The agreement was for an initial three month-term with automatic renewals unless terminated upon 30 days’ written notice by either party. The Company made payments totaling $14,000 and issued 15,000 shares of common stock during 2013. The Company contends that Torrey breached the agreement by not performing the required services and that it had provided proper notice of termination to Torrey. Furthermore, the Company contends that the parties agreed to settle the dispute on or about June 19, 2014 under which it would issue 2,800 shares of common stock in full settlement of any balance then owed and final termination of the agreement. Torrey disputed the Company’s contentions and submitted the dispute to binding arbitration. The Company was unable to defend itself and the arbitration panel awarded Torrey a total of $79,594 in damages. The Company has accrued amounts in accounts payable as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, which management believes is sufficient to provide for the ultimate resolution of this dispute.

Note 10 – Related Party Transactions

The Company does not have any employees other than the CEO and CFO. In previous years, certain general and administrative services (for which payment is deferred) had been provided by the CFO’s accounting firm at its standard billing rates plus out-of-pocket expenses consisting primarily of accounting, tax and other administrative fees. The Company no longer utilizes the CFO’s accounting firm for such support services and was not billed for any such services during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. The amount due to the CFO’s firm for services previously provided was $762,407 at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, and is included in accrued liabilities at both dates.

On June 6, 2009 the Company entered into a Revenue Sharing Agreement with the officers and directors for services provided. Infinity assigned to officers and directors a monthly payment equal to the revenue derived from one percent (1%) of Infinity’s share of the hydrocarbons produced at the wellhead from the Nicaraguan Concessions. The RSP will bear its proportionate share of all costs incurred to deliver the hydrocarbons to the point of sale to an unaffiliated purchaser, including its share of production, severance and similar taxes, and certain additional costs. The RSP shall be paid by the last day of each month based on the revenue received by Infinity from the purchaser of the production during the previous month from the Nicaraguan Concessions. The Revenue Agreement does not create any obligation for Infinity to maintain or develop the Nicaraguan Concessions and does not create any rights in the Nicaraguan Concessions for officers and directors.

In connection with its subordinated loan, Offshore Finance, LLC was granted a one percent (1%) revenue sharing interest in the Nicaraguan Concessions in connection with a subordinated loan provided previously which was subsequently converted to common stock. The managing partner of Offshore and the Company’s CFO are partners in the accounting firm which the Company used for general corporate purposes in the past. In connection with its dissolution, Offshore assigned its RSP to its individual members, which includes the former managing partner of Offshore.

As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had accrued compensation to its officers and directors of $1,600,208 and $1,423,208, respectively.

The Company entered into a line-of-credit facility on September 23, 2013 that provides it with borrowing capacity on a revolving basis up to a maximum of $50,000, which was increased to $75,000 at August 28, 2015 and an initial maturity of November 28, 2013. The line of credit is convertible to common stock at a rate of $5.00 per share. The entity providing the credit facility is owned by an officer of another corporation for which Infinity’s president and chairman of the board serves as president and chairman of the board. The facility is unsecured, bears interest at 8% per annum, and was renewed at its maturity several times with its current maturity date as November 28, 2016. In consideration for the origination of the line of credit facility and the various renewals, the Company granted the lender common stock purchase warrants. On February 28, 2016 the Company extended the line-of-credit expiration date to May 28, 2016 and issued a warrant to purchase 10,000 common shares at an exercise price of $5.00 per share, which warrants were immediately exercisable and expire on February 28, 2021. On May 28, 2016 the Company extended the line-of-credit expiration date to August 28, 2016 and issued a warrant to purchase 10,000 common shares at an exercise price of $5.00 per share, which warrants were immediately exercisable and expire on May 28, 2021. On August 28, 2016 the Company extended the line-of-credit expiration date to November 28, 2016 and issued a warrant to purchase 10,000 common shares at an exercise price of $5.00 per share, which warrants were immediately exercisable and expire on August 28, 2021.

Note 11 – Subsequent Events

The Company has not resolved the contingency related to the expired letters of credit and the delinquent payment of annual training program and area fees for 2016 as required by its Nicaraguan Concessions (See Note 9). The Company continues to attempt to negotiate the renewal of the letters of credit and payment of the annual training program and area fees with the Nicaraguan Government and its lenders; however, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in that regard.

On December 27, 2013 the Company borrowed $1,050,000 under an unsecured credit facility with a private, third-party lender which facility has an outstanding principal balance of $1,000,000. The facility is represented by a promissory note (the “Note”) that matured in April 2016, and is currently in technical default. The Company is seeking an extension of the maturity date; however, there can be no assurance that it will be able to obtain an extension or what the final terms will be if the lender agrees to such extension.

On November 7, 2016, the Company borrowed a total of $200,000 from an individual under a convertible note payable with the conversion rate of $5.00 per share. The term of the note was for a period of 365 days and bears interest at 8% per annum. Proceeds of the note were used for working capital purposes.

Unaudited Interim Financial Information

Unaudited Interim Financial Information

Infinity Energy Resources, Inc. (collectively, “we,” “ours,” “us,” “Infinity” or the “Company”) has prepared the accompanying condensed financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial reporting. These financial statements are unaudited and, in our opinion, include all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals necessary for a fair presentation of our balance sheets, statements of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for 2016 due to various factors. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and accompanying notes in Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data,” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC.

Nature of Operations

Nature of Operations

The Company is pursuing the exploration of potential oil and gas resources in the Perlas and Tyra concession blocks offshore Nicaragua in the Caribbean Sea (the “Nicaraguan Concessions” or “Concessions”), which contain a total of approximately 1.4 million acres. The Company sold its wholly-owned subsidiary Infinity Oil and Gas of Texas, Inc. in 2012 and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Infinity Oil and Gas of Wyoming, Inc., was administratively dissolved in 2009.

The Company has been pursuing exploration and development of the Nicaraguan Concessions, which represents its principal asset and only exploration and development project. On March 5, 2009 Infinity signed the contracts relating to its Nicaraguan Concessions. Infinity has conducted activities to develop geological information from the processing and evaluation of 2-D seismic data that was acquired for the Nicaraguan Concessions. The Company has identified multiple sites for exploratory drilling and will plan the initial exploratory well on the Perlas Block in order to determine the existence of commercial hydrocarbon reserves, subject to receipt from the Nicaraguan government of authorizations for the drilling of up to five wells, financing and satisfaction of other conditions. In order to meet its obligations under the Perlas Block of the Nicaraguan Concession, the Company has to drill its initial exploratory well during 2016 or risk being in default and losing its rights under the Nicaraguan Concessions. The work plan on the Tyra block now requires the Company to shoot additional seismic prior to the commencement of exploratory drilling. The Company is seeking a waiver of the additional seismic mapping on the Tyra Block and extension of time to complete its initial well from the Nicaraguan government. There can be no assurance whether it will be able to obtain such waiver of the requirements. The current environment for oil and gas development projects, especially discoveries in otherwise undeveloped regions of the world, is very challenging given the depressed commodity prices for oil and gas products and the resulting industry-wide reduction in capital expenditure budgets for exploration and development projects. There can be no assurance whether the Company will be able to obtain adequate financing to fund the exploration and development of its Nicaraguan Concessions.

On May 7, 2015 the Company completed the private placement (the “May 2015 Private Placement”) of a $12.0 million principal amount Secured Convertible Note (the “Note”) and a common stock purchase warrant to purchase 1,800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Warrant”) with an institutional investor (the “Investor”). At the closing, the Investor acquired the Note by paying $450,000 in cash and issuing a promissory note, secured by cash, with a principal amount of $9,550,000 (the “Investor Note”). Assuming all amounts payable to the Company under the Investor Note are paid, the May 2015 Private Placement will result in gross proceeds of $10.0 million before placement agent fees and other expenses associated with the transaction, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. The Company will receive the remaining cash proceeds upon each voluntary or mandatory prepayment of the Investor Note. The Investor may, at its option and at any time, voluntarily prepay the Investor Note, in whole or in part. As of September 30, 2016 an additional $60,000 was funded under the Investor Note for a total of $510,000 advanced to the Company.

The Investor must prepay the Investor Note, in whole or in part, upon the occurrence of one or more mandatory prepayment events. These include (i) the Investor’s conversion of the Note into shares of common stock upon which the Investor will be required to prepay the Investor Note, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, for each subsequent conversion of the Note and (ii) the Company’s delivering a mandatory prepayment notice to the Investor after it has received governmental authorizations from the Nicaraguan authorities necessary to commence drilling on at least five sites within the Concessions and the receipt of forbearance or similar agreements relative to its general creditors, among other conditions.

The Note matures on the three-year anniversary of its issuance, bears interest at 8% per annum, and is convertible at any time at the option of the holder into shares of the Company’s common stock at $5.00 per share (the “Conversion Price”). As a part of the May 2015 Private Placement, the Company issued a Warrant to the Investor giving it the right to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share. The Warrant is exercisable commencing six months from the date of issuance for a period of seven years from the date of issuance. The Note ranks senior to the Company’s existing and future indebtedness and is secured by all of the assets of the Company, excluding the Concessions.

In addition, the Company continues to seek offers from industry operators and other third parties for interests in the acreage in the Nicaraguan Concessions in exchange for cash and a carried interest in exploration and development operations or other joint venture arrangement.

Going Concern

Going Concern

As reflected in the accompanying statements of operations, the Company has had a history of losses. In addition, the Company has a significant working capital deficit and is currently experiencing substantial liquidity issues.

The Company has relied on raising debt and equity capital in recent years in order to fund its ongoing maintenance/expenditure obligations under the Nicaraguan Concession, for its day-to-day operations and its corporate overhead because it has generated no operating revenues or cash flows in recent history. The $1.0 million December 2013 Note (See Note 3) matured in April 2016 and is currently in technical default. The Company is seeking an extension of the maturity date; however, there can be no assurance that it will be able to obtain such extension or what the final terms will be if the lender agrees to such extension.

The Company is in Sub-Period 3 of the exploration phase of the 30-year Concession for both Perlas and Tyra as of September 30, 2016. Sub-Period 3 of the Nicaraguan Concessions requires the drilling of at least one exploratory well on the Perlas Block during 2016 and the shooting of additional seismic on the Tyra Block. The Company plans to identify at least one potential drilling site on the Perlas Block as required in Sub-Period 3 and will have to perform supplemental EIA work prior to requesting and receiving the permit to drill from the Nicaraguan government. The work plan on the Tyra block for Sub-Period 3 requires the Company to shoot additional seismic, which is estimated to cost approximately $2,500,000 prior to the commencement of exploratory drilling. The Company is seeking a waiver of the additional seismic mapping on the Tyra Block and extension of time to complete its initial well from the Nicaraguan government. The Nicaraguan Government is in an election year in 2016, therefore such efforts have been delayed until the election is over. There can be no assurance whether it will be able to obtain a waiver of the requirements.

In accordance with the Nicaraguan Concession agreements, the Company has previously provided the Ministry of Energy with the required letters of credit in the amounts of $443,100 for Perlas (expired March 2014) and $408,450 for Tyra (expired September 2014). The Company has also made all required expenditures related to the Nicaraguan Concessions for training programs and as “area fees,” for each respective year for 2010 through 2015. However, approximately $155,567 was due and payable in March 2016 for 2016 training program and area fees that remain unpaid and outstanding as of September 30, 2016. In accordance with the Nicaraguan Concession agreements, the Company must provide the Ministry of Energy with the required letters of credit in the amounts, which total $1,356,227 for the Perlas block and $278,450 for the Tyra block for exploration requirements on the leases as required by the Nicaraguan Concessions, to replace the expired letters of credit. The minimum cash requirements to maintain and comply with the minimum work program as defined in the Nicaraguan Concessions for the next twelve-month period will be approximately $5,500,000 for the Perlas Block, which includes all costs to prepare for and drill the initial exploratory well, and $280,000 for the Tyra Block, assuming the waiver is granted regarding the seismic mapping. If such waiver is not granted, the Company estimates it will require approximately $2,500,000 for the seismic mapping. Finally, the Company estimates it will need approximately $300,000 to prepare and submit an environmental supplement to the Nicaraguan government to identify and receive authorization to drill up to five wells in the Concessions.

If the Company does not receive the funding anticipated under its May 2015 Private Placement, it must raise substantial amounts of debt and equity capital from other sources in the immediate future in order to fund: (1) the annual training program and area fees for 2016; (2) required letters of credit to the Nicaraguan Government; (3) the drilling of at least one exploratory well on the Perlas Block of the Nicaraguan Concessions during 2016; (4) the shooting of additional seismic on the Tyra Block of the Nicaraguan Concessions should it be unable to negotiate a waiver of such requirement from the Nicaraguan government; (5) normal day-to-day operations and corporate overhead; and (6) outstanding debt and other financial obligations as they become due including the $1.0 million December 2013 Note, which currently is in technical default. These are substantial operational and financial issues that must be successfully addressed during 2016 or the Company’s ability to satisfy the conditions necessary to maintain its Nicaragua Concessions will be in significant doubt. The Company is seeking new outside sources of debt and equity capital in addition to the May 2015 Private Placement in order to fund the substantial needs enumerated above; however, there can be no assurance that it will be able to obtain such capital or obtain it on favorable terms or within the timeframe necessary to cure the technical defaults existing on the Nicaraguan Concessions or to meet its ongoing requirements relative to drilling the exploratory wells. The current environment for oil and gas development projects, especially discoveries in otherwise undeveloped regions of the world, is very challenging given the depressed commodity prices for oil and gas products, and the resulting industry-wide reduction in capital expenditure budgets for exploration and development projects. These are substantial impediments for the Company to obtain adequate financing to fund the exploration and development of its Nicaraguan projects.

Due to the uncertainties related to these matters, there exists substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Management Estimates

Management Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates with regard to the financial statements include the estimated carrying value of unproved properties, the estimated fair value of derivative liabilities, secured convertible note payable, stock-based awards and overriding royalty interests, and the realization of deferred tax assets.

Oil and Gas Properties

Oil and Gas Properties

Unproved properties are assessed periodically (at least annually) to ascertain whether impairment has occurred. Unproved properties whose costs are individually significant are assessed individually by considering the primary lease terms of the properties, the holding period of the properties, geographic and geologic data obtained relating to the properties, and estimated discounted future net cash flows from the properties. Estimated discounted future net cash flows are based on discounted future net revenues associated with probable and possible reserves, risk adjusted as appropriate. Where it is not practicable to assess individually the amount of impairment of properties for which costs are not individually significant, such properties are grouped for purposes of assessing impairment. The amount of impairment assessed is deducted from the costs to be amortized, and reported as a period expense when the impairment is recognized. All unproved property costs as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 relate to the Nicaraguan Concessions. In assessing the unproved property costs for impairment, the Company takes into consideration various information including: (i) the terms of the Concessions, (ii) the status of the Company’s compliance with the Nicaraguan Concessions’ requirements, iii) (the ongoing evaluation of the seismic data, (iv) the commodity prices for oil and gas products, (v) the overall environment related to oil and gas exploration and development projects for unproven targets in unproven regions of the world, (vi) the availability of financing for financial and strategic partners, and (vii) other factors that would impact the viability of a significant long-term oil and gas exploration and development project.

The current environment for oil and gas development projects, especially discoveries in otherwise undeveloped regions of the world, is very challenging given the depressed commodity prices for oil and gas products and the resulting industry-wide reduction in capital expenditure budgets for exploration and development projects. These are substantial impediments for the Company to obtain adequate financing to fund the exploration and development of its Nicaraguan projects. The Company has performed its impairment tests as of December 31, 2015 and has concluded that a full impairment reserve should be provided on the costs capitalized for the Nicaraguan Concessions oil and gas properties. All costs related to the Nicaraguan Concessions from December 31, 2015 through September 30, 2016 have been charged to operating expenses as incurred.

Concentrations

Concentrations

The Company’s business plan consists of developing the Nicaraguan Concessions and it expects to be active in Nicaragua for the foreseeable future, given sufficient capital. The political climate in Nicaragua could become unstable and subject to radical change over a short period of time. In the event of a significant negative change in political and economic stability in the vicinity of the Nicaraguan Concessions or of the inability of the Company to obtain sufficient financing, the Company might be forced to abandon or suspend its efforts and its rights under its Nicaraguan Concessions.

Derivative Instruments

Derivative Instruments

The Company accounts for derivative instruments or hedging activities under the provisions of ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging. ASC 815 requires the Company to record derivative instruments at their fair value. If the derivative is designated as a fair value hedge, the changes in the fair value of the derivative and of the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in earnings. If the derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge, the effective portions of changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and are recognized in the statement of operations when the hedged item affects earnings. Ineffective portions of changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges, if any, are recognized in earnings. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that do not qualify for hedge treatment are recognized in earnings.

The purpose of hedging is to provide a measure of stability to the Company’s cash flows in an environment of volatile oil and gas prices and to manage the exposure to commodity price risk. As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 and during the periods then ended, the Company had no oil and natural gas derivative arrangements outstanding.

As a result of certain terms, conditions and features included in certain common stock purchase warrants issued by the Company (Notes 2, 3 and 6), those warrants are required to be accounted for as derivatives at estimated fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in operations.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. This method requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between financial accounting bases and tax bases of assets and liabilities. The tax benefits of tax loss carryforwards and other deferred taxes are recorded as an asset to the extent that management assesses the utilization of such assets to be more likely than not. Management routinely assesses the realizability of the Company’s deferred income tax assets, and a valuation allowance is recognized if it is determined that deferred income tax assets may not be fully utilized in future periods. Management considers future taxable earnings in making such assessments. Numerous judgments and assumptions are inherent in the determination of future taxable earnings, including such factors as future operating conditions. When the future utilization of some portion of the deferred tax asset is determined not to be more likely than not, a valuation allowance is provided to reduce the recorded deferred tax asset. When the Company can project that a portion of the deferred tax asset can be realized through application of a portion of tax loss carryforward, the Company will record that utilization as a deferred tax benefit and recognize a deferred tax asset in the same amount. There can be no assurance that facts and circumstances will not materially change and require the Company to adjust its deferred income tax asset valuation allowance in a future period. The Company recognized a deferred tax asset, net of valuation allowance, of $-0- at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

The Company is potentially subject to taxation in many jurisdictions, and the calculation of income tax liabilities (if any) involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex income tax laws and regulations in various taxing jurisdictions. It recognizes certain income tax positions that meet a more-likely-than not recognition threshold. If the Company ultimately determines that the payment of these liabilities will be unnecessary, it will reverse the liability and recognize an income tax benefit. No liability for unrecognized tax benefit was recorded as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

Asset Retirement Obligations

Asset Retirement Obligations

The Company records estimated future asset retirement obligations pursuant to the provisions of ASC 410. ASC 410 requires entities to record the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it is incurred with a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. Subsequent to initial measurement, the asset retirement liability is required to be accreted each period. The Company’s asset retirement obligations consist of costs related to the plugging of wells, the removal of facilities and equipment, and site restoration on oil and gas properties. Capitalized costs are depleted as a component of the full cost pool using the units of production method. Although the Company had divested all of its domestic oil properties that contain operating and abandoned wells as of September 30, 2016, the Company may have obligations related to the divestiture of certain abandoned non-producing domestic leasehold properties should the new owner not perform its obligations to reclaim abandoned wells in a timely manner. Management believes the Company has been relieved from asset retirement obligation related to Infinity-Texas because of the sale of its Texas oil and gas properties in 2011 and its sale of 100% of the stock in Infinity-Texas in 2012. The Company has recognized an additional liability of $734,897 related to its former Texas oil and gas producing properties (included in asset retirement obligations) to recognize the potential personal liability of the Company and its officers for the Infinity-Texas oil and gas properties should the new owner not perform its obligations to reclaim abandoned wells in a timely manner.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying values of the Company’s accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and short term notes represent the estimated fair value due to the short-term nature of the accounts.

The carrying value of the Company’s debt under its line-of-credit with related party represents its estimated fair value due to its short-term nature, its rate of interest, associated fees and expenses and initially recorded discount.

In accordance with ASC Topic 820 — Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), the Company utilizes the market approach to measure fair value for its financial assets and liabilities. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets, liabilities or a group of assets or liabilities, such as a business.

ASC 820 utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:

● Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

● Level 2 — Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities).

● Level 3 — Significant unobservable inputs (including the Company’s own assumptions in determining the fair value.

The estimated fair value of the Company’s Note and various derivative liabilities, which are related to detachable warrants issued in connection with various notes payable, were estimated using a closed-ended option pricing model utilizing assumptions related to the contractual term of the instruments, estimated volatility of the price of the Company’s common stock, interest rates, the probability of both the downward adjustment of the exercise price and the upward adjustment to the number of warrants as provided by the warrant agreement terms and non-performance risk factors, among other items. The fair values for the warrant derivatives as of and September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 were classified under the fair value hierarchy as Level 3.

The following table represents the Company’s hierarchy for its financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015:

September 30, 2016	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Liabilities:
Secured convertible note payable	$	—	$	—	$	148,480	$	148,480

Derivative liabilities		—		—		210,383		210,383
	$	—	$	—	$	476,312	$	476,312

There were no changes in valuation techniques or reclassifications of fair value measurements between Levels 1, 2 or 3 during the periods ended September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

Net Income (Loss) per Share

Net Income (Loss) per Share

Pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share, basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Common share equivalents included in the diluted computation represent shares issuable upon assumed exercise of stock options and warrants using the treasury stock and “if converted” method. For periods in which net losses are incurred, weighted average shares outstanding is the same for basic and diluted loss per share calculations, as the inclusion of common share equivalents would have an anti-dilutive effect.

Reclassifications

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the prior period were reclassified to conform to the current period’s financial statement presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported net loss or accumulated deficit.
