CHANCELLOR GROUP, INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2010

NOTE 1.  ORGANIZATION, OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization

Chancellor Group, Inc. (the "Company", “our”, “we”, “Chancellor” or the “Company” ) was incorporated in the state of Utah on May 2, 1986, and then, on December 30, 1993, dissolved as a Utah corporation and reincorporated as a Nevada corporation. The Company's primary business purpose is to engage in the exploration and production of oil and gas. On March 26, 1996, the Company's corporate name was changed from Nighthawk Capital, Inc. to Chancellor Group, Inc.  The Company’s headquarters is located in Pampa, Texas.

Operations

The Company is licensed by the Texas Railroad Commission as an oil and gas producer and operator.  The Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Gryphon Production Company, LLC and Gryphon Field Services, LLC, own 140 wells, of which 23 are water disposal wells and 2 are gas wells, although “associated” gas is also produced from some oil wells.  As of September 30, 2010, approximately 72 oil wells are actively producing.  We also own and operate our 15.9 acre property, with its shop, yard and office complex. Company equipment includes two work-over rigs as well as other oil field related equipment.

In addition, we own approximately 4,510 gross and net acres of production rights on six leases, which includes 500 gross and net acres of undeveloped acreage, approximately 300 acres of which was previously owned by Mobil, and the balance of approximately 200 acres on the Worley Combs lease.  The six leases have the production rights for oil, casing-head gas and natural gas.

We produced a total of 7,156 barrels of oil and 7,909 mcf of gas in the nine months ended September 30, 2010. The oil is light sweet crude and the natural gas has very high heat content, 1600 to 2600 btu/scf.

Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Chancellor Group, Inc.; and its wholly owned subsidiaries: Gryphon Production Company, LLC, and Gryphon Field Services, LLC. These entities are collectively hereinafter referred to as "the Company". Any inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Accounting Year

The Company employs a calendar accounting year. The Company recognizes income and expenses based on the accrual method of accounting under generally accepted accounting standards in the United States of America.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect 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.

Products and Services, Geographic Areas and Major Customers

The Company plans to develop its domestic oil and gas properties, located in Gray county and Hutchinson county, Texas, and possibly to acquire additional producing oil and gas properties. The Company’s major customers, to which the majority of its oil and gas production is sold, are Plains Marketing and DCP Midstream.

5

Net Income (loss) per share

The net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common outstanding. Warrants, stock options, and common stock issuable upon the conversion of the Company's preferred stock (if any), are not included in the computation if the effect would be anti-dilutive and would increase the earnings or decrease loss per share.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less as cash equivalents.

Restricted Cash

Included in restricted cash at September 30, 2010 are deposits totaling $250,000, which are assigned and held as collateral for a letter of credit issued to the Railroad Commission of Texas as required for its oil and gas activities.

Accounts Receivable

The Company reviews accounts receivable periodically for collectibles and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts and records bad debt expense when deemed necessary.  An allowance for doubtful accounts was not considered necessary or recorded at September 30, 2010.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated under the straight line method over the estimated useful life of the equipment. The estimated useful life of leasehold costs, equipment and tools ranges from five to seven years.  The useful life of the office building and warehouse is estimated to be twenty years.

Oil and Gas Properties

The Company follows the successful efforts method of accounting for its oil and gas activities. Under this accounting method, costs associated with the acquisition, drilling and equipping of successful exploratory and development wells are capitalized. Geological and geophysical costs, delay rentals and drilling costs of unsuccessful exploratory wells are charged to expense as incurred. The carrying value of mineral leases is depleted over the minimum estimated productive life of the leases, or ten years. Undeveloped properties are periodically assessed for possible impairment due to un-recoverability of costs invested.  Cash received for partial conveyances of property interests is treated as a recovery of cost and no gain or loss is recognized.

Depletion

The carrying value of the mineral leases is depleted over the minimum estimated productive life of the leases, or ten years.

Long-Lived Assets

The Company assesses potential impairment of its long-lived assets, which include its property and equipment and its identifiable intangibles such as deferred charges, under the guidance Topic 360 “Property, Plant and Equipment” in the ASC.  The Company must continually determine if a permanent impairment of its long-lived assets has occurred and write down the assets to their fair values and charge current operations for the measured impairment.

Asset Retirement Obligations

In accordance with accounting standards for asset retirement obligations (ASC 410), the Company is supposed to record the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation (ARO) when there is a legal obligation associated with the retirement of a tangible long-lived asset and the liability can be reasonably estimated.  The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the related oil and gas properties.  As of September 30, 2010, there has been no asset retirement obligations recorded.

Income Tax

Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss carry-forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases.  Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

6

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when a product is sold to a customer, either for cash or as evidenced by an obligation on the part of the customer to pay.

Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures

The Company estimates fair values of assets and liabilities which require either recognition or disclosure in the financial statements in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820 “Fair Value Measurements”.  As of September 30, 2010 there is no material impact on the consolidated financial statements related to fair value measurements and disclosures.  Fair value measurements include the following levels:

Level 1:  Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in active exchange markets, such as the New York Stock Exchange.  Level 1 also includes U.S. Treasury and federal agency securities and federal agency mortgage-backed securities, which are traded by dealers or brokers in active markets.  Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2:  Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data. Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in less active dealer or broker markets.  Valuations are obtained from third party pricing services for identical or similar assets or liabilities.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data. Valuations for assets and liabilities that are derived from other valuation methodologies, including option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques, and not based on market exchange, dealer, or broker traded transactions.  Level 3 valuations incorporate certain assumptions and projections in determining the fair value assigned to such assets or liabilities.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying value of the Company's financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable and long term debt, as reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet, approximates fair values.

Employee Stock-Based Compensation

Compensation expense is recognized for performance-based stock awards if management deems it probable that the performance conditions are or will be met.  Determining the amount of stock-based compensation expense requires us to develop estimates that are used in calculating the fair value of stock-based compensation, and also requires us to make estimates of assumptions including expected stock price volatility which is derived based upon our historical stock prices.

Business Combinations

The Company accounts for business combinations in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 805 “Business Combinations”.  This standard modifies certain aspects of how the acquiring entity recognizes and measures the identifiable assets, the liabilities assumed and the goodwill acquired in a business combination.  For the nine months ending September 30, 2010, the Company did not enter into any business combinations.

The Company complies with the accounting guidance related to consolidation of variable interest entities (“VIEs”) that requires a reporting entity determine if a primary beneficiary that would consolidate the VIE from a quantitative risk and rewards approach to a qualitative approach based on which variable interest holder has the power to direct the economic performance related activities of the VIE as well as the obligation to absorb losses or right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. This guidance requires the primary beneficiary assessment to be performed on an ongoing basis and also requires enhanced disclosures that will provide more transparency about a company’s involvement in a VIE. This new guidance is effective for a reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009.  The Company did not have any VIEs that required consolidation in these financial statements.

Subsequent Events

Events occurring after September 30, 2010 were evaluated as of November 15, 2010, the date this Quarterly Report was issued, in compliance FASB ASC Topic 855 “Subsequent Events”, to ensure that any subsequent events that met the criteria for recognition and/or disclosure in this report have been included.

7

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement No. 168, “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”, which was primarily codified into Topic 105 “Generally Accepted Accounting Standards” in the ASC.  This standard will become the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), superseding existing FASB, American Institute of Certified Public Accountants ("AICPA"), Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF"), and related accounting literature.  This guidance reorganizes the thousands of GAAP pronouncements into roughly 90 accounting topics and displays them using a consistent structure. Also included is relevant Securities and Exchange Commission guidance organized using the same topical structure in separate sections.  This guidance is effective for financial statements issued for reporting periods that end after September 15, 2009. Beginning in the third quarter of the Company’s 2009 fiscal year, this guidance impacts the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures as all references to authoritative accounting literature reflect the newly adopted codification.

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2010-03 to align the oil and gas reserve estimation and disclosure requirements of Extractive Industries — Oil and Gas Topic of the Accounting Standards Codification with the requirements in the SEC's final rule, Modernization of the Oil and Gas Reporting Requirements. We implemented ASU 2010-03 as of December 31, 2009.  Key items in the new rules include changes to the pricing used to estimate reserves and calculate the full cost ceiling limitation, whereby a 12-month average price is used rather than a single day spot price, the use of new technology for determining reserves, the ability to include nontraditional resources in reserves and the ability to disclose probable and possible reserves.  Management has elected not to include probable and possible reserves in its reserve studies and related disclosures.

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2010-6, "Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements." This update requires additional disclosure within the roll forward of activity for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, including transfers of assets and liabilities between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and the separate presentation of purchases, sales, issuances and settlements of assets and liabilities within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. In addition, the update requires enhanced disclosures of the valuation techniques and inputs used in the fair value measurements within Levels 2 and 3. The new disclosure requirements are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosure of purchases, sales, issuances and settlements of Level 3 measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. As ASU 2010-6 only requires enhanced disclosures, the Company does not expect that the adoption of this update will have a material effect on its financial position, cash flows and results of operations.

Reclassifications

The company reclassified its accrued property tax liability as of December 31, 2009, which was previously included in accounts payable, to conform to the current presentation.  The Company also reclassified its restricted cash as of December 31, 2009, which was previously included in cash and cash equivalents. The reclassifications had no effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operation, or cash flows.

NOTE 2. INCOME TAXES

Deferred income taxes arise from temporary differences in recognition of certain revenues and expenses between financial statement and income tax basis of accounting, and also net operating loss carry-forwards and other tax credit carry-forwards

At September 30, 2010, the Company had a federal net operating loss carry-forward of approximately $1,905,000.  A deferred tax asset of approximately $380,000 has been partially offset by a valuation allowance of approximately $205,000 due to federal net operating loss carry-back and carry-forward limitations.

At September 30, 2010, the Company also had approximately $175,000 in deferred income tax liability attributable to timing differences between federal income tax depreciation, depletion and book depreciation, which has been offset against the deferred tax asset related to the net operating loss carry-forward.

Management evaluated the Company’s tax positions under FASB ASC No. 740 Uncertain Tax Positions, and concluded that the Company had taken no uncertain tax positions that require adjustment to the consolidated financial statements to comply with the provisions of this guidance.  With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to income tax examinations by the U.S. federal, state or local tax authorities for years before 2007.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three Months Ended September 30, 2010

In the three month period ended September 30, 2010, we produced and sold 2.489 net barrels of oil and 2.976 mcf of gas, attributable to our net revenue interest in our producing properties, while generating net revenues of $203,522, as compared with 2.644 net barrels of oil and 3,853 net mcf of gas, generating net revenues of $192,532, in the comparable period of 2009. At September 30, 2010, we had approximately 72 producing oil wells and 2 producing gas wells, with additional “associated” gas coming from some oil wells.  The oil is light sweet crude and the natural gas has very high heat content, 1600 to 2600 btu/scf.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2010

In the nine month period ended September 30, 2010, we produced and sold 7,156 net barrels of oil and 7,909 mcf of gas, attributable to our net revenue interest in our producing properties, while generating net revenues of $591,526, as compared with 8,193 net barrels of oil and 10,847 net mcf of gas, generating net revenues of $484,737, in the comparable period of 2009. At September 30, 2010, we had approximately 72 producing oil wells and 2 producing gas wells, with additional “associated” gas coming from some oil wells.  The oil is light sweet crude and the natural gas has very high heat content, 1600 to 2600 btu/scf.

The Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Gryphon Production Company, LLC and Gryphon Field Services, LLC, own 140 wells, of which 23 are water disposal wells and 2 are gas wells, although “associated” gas is also produced from some oil wells.  As of September 30, 2010, approximately 72 oil wells were actively producing.  We also own and operate our 15.9 acre property, with its shop, yard and office complex. Company equipment includes two work-over rigs as well as other oil field related equipment.

In addition, we own approximately 4,510 acres of production rights on six leases, which includes 500 acres of undeveloped acreage in Gray county, approximately 300 acres of which was previously owned by Mobil, and the balance of approximately 200 acres on the Worley Combs lease.  The six leases have the production rights for oil, casing-head gas and natural gas

In May 2010, the Company acquired 16 wells in Hutchinson County, Texas, approximately 15 miles from its main operation in Gray County, Texas, for a purchase price of $150,000, paid in cash.  There are 15 potential producing wells and 1 water disposal well.  The acquired property also contains a gas gathering system not currently in production. The company has started using its own workover rigs, related equipment and personnel to restore most of the newly acquired wells and gas system and expects to fund the restoration plan through existing capital and future production from this field.  In the quarter ending September 2010, the company brought 4 of the newly acquired wells into production, which produced 330 bbls of oil generating approximately $23,000 of gross revenues.  The company capitalized approximately $16,000 in restoration costs related to these wells for the quarter ending September 30, 2010.

Our other near-term plans include continued maintenance of existing wells, our primary focus being to operate our properties and to enhance production by ongoing treatment.  Additionally, production is expected to increase by remedial repairs that improve and prolong the production life of existing wells.  The Company also intends to review several of leases for the possibility of drilling the wells deeper to reach additional producing strata.  Feasibility studies are planned to consider drilling replacement wells in the locations of wells that were previously plugged and abandoned due to either low prices or integrity issues with the well bore casing.  There is approximately 500 acres of undeveloped leased property that needs to be reviewed and studied for the possibility of drilling for new production.

The following table shows the approximate volumes and average sales and prices for oil and gas we produced in the nine months ended September 30, 2010, as compared with sales and price information for the comparable period in 2009:

	Nine Months Ended
	September 30,  2010		September 30, 2009
Oil and Gas Sales(1)
Oil Sales(Bbl)		7,156		8,193
Natural Gas Sales (Mcf)		7,909		10,847
Average Sales Price:
Oil, per Bbl:	$	73.51	$	51.80
Gas, per MMCF:	$	8.78	$	5.56

(1) Sales of oil and gas are those attributable to our respective net revenue interests in our producing properties, and do not take account of severance taxes or other operating expenses.

11

The decreases in production volumes for the nine months ending September 30, 2010 compared to the nine months ending September 30, 2009 were primarily due to disruptions in production due to severe winter weather experienced in early 2010 in the Texas Panhandle region.  The Company also experienced a short disruption with producing wells due to a tornado in the summer of  2010 which temporarily damaged certain electrical power lines to the wells.  These production disruptions were temporary in nature and have been resolved as of September 30, 2010.  There is no assurance that management will be able to continue to increase production, or to maintain current production levels.

Generally, in managing our business we must deal with many factors inherent to our industry. First and foremost is wide fluctuation of oil and gas prices. Oil and gas markets are cyclical and volatile, with future price movements difficult to predict. While our revenues are a function of both production and prices, wide swings in prices often have the greatest impact on our results of operations.

Our operations entail significant complexities. Advanced technologies requiring highly trained personnel are utilized in restoration of wells and production. The oil and gas industry is highly competitive. We compete with major and diversified energy companies, independent oil and gas companies, and individual operators. In addition, the industry as a whole competes with other businesses that supply energy to industrial, commercial, and residential end users. Our ability to recruit and retain experienced personnel is vital to the success of our endeavors.

LIQUIDITY & CAPTIAL RESOURCES

As of September 30, 2010 the Company had $701,307 of cash on hand.   We have a retained earnings deficit of $724,011 and have a stockholders' equity balance of $2,735,351 at September 30, 2010.  The Company’s decrease in cash on hand from December 31, 2009 of approximately $450,000 is primarily due to operating losses and the capital expenditure of approximately $175,000 related to the new property acquisition in Hutchinson county, which was finalized in May 2010.  The Company expects the increased production revenues from its current and ongoing restoration of the newly acquired properties to substantially improve future operating results and stabilize its future net cash flows from operations.  The Company plans to fund additional restoration expenditures from current and future revenues.  We continue to explore future property acquisitions similar to this acquisition.  The Company does not currently have any debt financing for its assets or operations and does not currently have any plans for any debt financing in the near future.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

On July 1, 2009, the Company entered into a 24-month non-exclusive consultant agreement with PK Advisors, LLC (“PK”) in connection with the Company’s interest in creating a strategy for growing the core business, creating market awareness and providing general strategic corporate advice.  In accordance with this agreement, during each month in the period of 18 months beginning on January 1, 2010, until the consulting agreement is terminated, the Company is obligated to issue 40,000 shares of unregistered common stock and five year warrants to purchase 14,000 shares of our common stock with a strike price of $.125 to PK.  Additional cash consideration would be payable to PK for any future investment transactions for which PK provides assistance. The Company recorded professional fees expense of $6,600 related to this agreement in the quarter ending September 30, 2010.  The Company did not issue any of these warrants to PK during the three months ended September 30, 2010; instead the Company anticipates issuing these warrants during the quarter ending December 31, 2010 (in addition to the warrants that the Company is otherwise obligated to issue during such quarter).

On July 1, 2009, the Company entered into a 24-month non-exclusive consultant agreement with Equity Source Partners, LLC (“ESP”) in connection with the Company’s interest in creating a strategy for growing the core business, creating market awareness and providing general strategic corporate advice. In accordance with this agreement, during each month in the period of 18 months beginning on January 1, 2010, until the consulting agreement is terminated, the Company is obligated to issue 30,000 shares of unregistered common stock and five year warrants to purchase 14,000 shares of our common stock with a strike price of $.125 to ESP.  Additional cash consideration would be payable to ESP for any future investment transactions for which ESP provides assistance. The Company recorded professional fees expense of $4,950 related to this agreement in the quarter ending September 30, 2010.  The Company did not issue any of these warrants to ESP during the three months ended September 30, 2010; instead the Company anticipates issuing these warrants during the quarter ending December 31, 2010 (in addition to the warrants that the Company is otherwise obligated to issue during such quarter).

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) recently issued "Financial Reporting Release No.  60 Cautionary Advice Regarding Disclosure About Critical Accounting Policies" ("FRR 60"), suggesting companies provide additional disclosures, discussion and commentary on those accounting policies considered most critical to their business and financial reporting requirements.  The SEC suggests in FRR 60 that an accounting policy is critical if it is important to the Company's financial condition and results of operations and requires significant judgment and estimates on the part of management in the application of the policy.  For a summary of the Company's significant accounting policies, including the critical accounting policies discussed below, please refer to the accompanying notes to the financial statements provided in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

12

The Company assesses potential impairment of its long-lived assets, which include its property and equipment and its identifiable intangibles such as deferred charges, under the guidance Topic 360 “Property, Plant and Equipment” in the ASC.  The Company must continually determine if a permanent impairment of its long-lived assets has occurred and write down the assets to their fair values and charge current operations for the measured impairment.

Natural Gas and Oil Properties

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2010-03 to align the oil and gas reserve estimation and disclosure requirements of Extractive Industries — Oil and Gas Topic of the Accounting Standards Codification with the requirements in the SEC's final rule, Modernization of the Oil and Gas Reporting Requirements. We implemented ASU 2010-03 as of December 31, 2009.  Key items in the new rules include changes to the pricing used to estimate reserves and calculate the full cost ceiling limitation, whereby a 12-month average price is used rather than a single day spot price, the use of new technology for determining reserves, the ability to include nontraditional resources in reserves and the ability to disclose probable and possible reserves.  Management has elected not to include probable and possible reserves in its reserve studies and related disclosures.

The process of estimating quantities of oil and gas reserves is complex, requiring significant decisions in the evaluation of all available geological, geophysical, engineering and economic data. The data for a given field may also change substantially over time as a result of numerous factors including, but not limited to, additional development activity, evolving production history and continual reassessment of the viability of production under varying economic conditions. As a result, material revisions to existing reserve estimates may occur from time to time. Although every reasonable effort is made to ensure that reserve estimates reported represent the most accurate assessments possible, the subjective decisions and variances in available data for various fields make these estimates generally less precise than other estimates included in the financial statement disclosures.

Income Taxes

As part of the process of preparing the consolidated financial statements, we are required to estimate the federal and state income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which Chancellor operates. This process involves estimating the actual current tax exposure together with assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items, such as derivative instruments, depreciation, depletion and amortization, and certain accrued liabilities for tax and accounting purposes. These differences and our net operating loss carry-forwards result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included in our consolidated balance sheet. We must then assess, using all available positive and negative evidence, the likelihood that the deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income. If we believe that recovery is not likely, we must establish a valuation allowance. Generally, to the extent Chancellor establishes a valuation allowance or increases or decreases this allowance in a period, we must include an expense or reduction of expense within the tax provision in the consolidated statement of operations.

Under accounting guidance for income taxes, an enterprise must use judgment in considering the relative impact of negative and positive evidence. The weight given to the potential effect of negative and positive evidence should be commensurate with the extent to which it can be objectively verified. The more negative evidence that exists (i) the more positive evidence is necessary and (ii) the more difficult it is to support a conclusion that a valuation allowance is not needed for some portion or all of the deferred tax asset. Among the more significant types of evidence that we consider are:

§ taxable income projections in future years;

§ whether the carry-forward period is so brief that it would limit realization of tax benefit;

§ future sales and operating cost projections that will produce more than enough taxable income to realize the deferred tax asset based on existing sales prices and cost structures; and

§ our earnings history exclusive of the loss that created the future deductible amount coupled with evidence indicating that the loss is an aberration rather than a continuing condition.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

As of September 30, 2010, the Company had not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements or third-party guarantees, nor does our business ordinarily require us to do so.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Interest Rate Risk - Interest rate risk refers to fluctuations in the value of a security resulting from changes in the general level of interest rates. Investments that are classified as cash and cash equivalents have original maturities of three months or less. Our interest income is sensitive to changes in the general level of U.S. interest rates.

Credit Risk - Our accounts receivables are subject, in the normal course of business, to collection risks. We regularly assess these risks and have established policies and business practices to protect against the adverse effects of collection risks. As a result, we do not anticipate any material losses in this area.

Commodity Price Risk – We are exposed to market risks related to price volatility of crude oil and natural gas. The prices of crude oil and natural gas affect our revenues, since sales of crude oil and natural gas comprise all of the components of our revenues.  Because we are currently operating our wells at their maximum (or near maximum) levels of production, a decline in crude oil and natural gas prices will likely reduce our revenues unless we implement offsetting production increases through further acquisitions or through additional exploration and development activities.  However, there can be no assurance we will be able to implement offsetting production increases. We are currently pursuing the ability to increase production capacity in the near future with our new property acquisition in Hutchinson county, which was finalized in May 2010. A significant decline in the prices of oil or natural gas could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. We do not use derivative commodity instruments for trading purposes.

ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer is primarily responsible for the accuracy of the financial information that is presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.  This officer has, as of the close of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, evaluated the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)).  Based upon that evaluation, this officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of that date to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is (a) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely discussions regarding required disclosure and (b) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.  There were no changes to the Company's internal controls in this period identified in connection with this evaluation that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely materially to affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
