  a)

On April 1, 2010, the Company entered into a purchase agreement with CAB Financial Services Ltd., a company controlled by Christopher Bunka, our President, Chief Executive Officer and Director, (“Purchaser”) for a non-secured promissory note in the amount of $75,000 (the “Promissory Note”). The Purchaser agreed to purchase a non-secured 18% interest bearing Promissory Note of our company subject to and upon the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement. The Promissory Note is due and payable on April 1, 2012. The Promissory Note may be prepaid in whole or in part at any time prior to April 1, 2012 by payment of 108% of the outstanding principal amount including accrued and unpaid interest. Upon the mature of the Promissory Note, it has been renewed to a month to month basis.

As long as the Promissory Note is outstanding, the Purchaser may voluntarily convert the Promissory Note including accrued and unpaid interest to common shares of our Company at the conversion price of $0.30 per common share.

The Company did not incur beneficiary conversion charges as the conversion price is greater than the fair value of the Company’s equity at the time of issuance.

  b)

On November 30, 2010, we closed the first tranche of a private placement offering of convertible debentures in the aggregate amount of $450,000. The convertible debentures mature on November 30, 2012, subject to forced conversion as set out in the convertible debenture certificate. The convertible debentures pay an interest rate of 12% per annum (on a simple basis) and are convertible at $0.35 per unit. Each unit is comprised of one share of our common stock and one share purchase warrant. Each warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share at a price of $0.40 per share up to the earlier of the maturity date of the convertible debenture or one year from conversion of the convertible debenture.

     
   

We also entered into a general security agreement with the subscribers, whereby the obligations to repay the convertible debenture are secured by the Company’s working interest and production in and only in two oil wells located at Belmont Lake, Mississippi, with carrying value of $1,000,000 as of October 31, 2012. One director of the Company and Emerald Atlantic LLC, solely owned by the director, subscribed the convertible debentures with amount of $50,000.

On December 16, 2010, the Company closed the second tranche of a private placement offering of convertible debentures in the aggregate amount of $170,000. The convertible debentures mature on November 30, 2012, subject to forced conversion as set out in the convertible debenture certificate. The convertible debentures pay an interest rate of 12% per annum (on a simple basis) and are convertible at $0.35 per unit. Each unit is comprised of one share of our common stock and one share purchase warrant. Each warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share at a price of $0.40 per share up to the earlier of the maturity date of the convertible debenture or one year from conversion of the convertible debenture. We also entered into a general security agreement with the subscribers, whereby the obligations to repay the convertible debenture are secured by the same assets for the first tranche of the private placement offering on November 30, 2010. One director of the Company and Emerald Atlantic LLC, solely owned by the director, subscribed the convertible debentures with amount of $120,000.

The aggregate principal value of the above convertible debentures was $620,000 and was allocated to the individual components on a relative fair value basis. In addition, because the effective conversion price of the convertible debentures was below the current trading price of the Company’s common shares at the date of issuance, the Company recorded a beneficial conversion feature of approximately $20,000. The value of the warrants and beneficial conversion feature has been recorded as additional paid in capital.

On November 13, 2013, the Company entered into an Amendment agreement to refinance and extend repayment terms on the loan, please refer to Note 8f for details. On April 1, 2014, three of the parties converted their balance of $193,333 of principal remaining into 552,350 common shares at a price of $0.35 per share. During the year ended August 31, 2014, the Company has paid down the debt by $354,665 (October 31, 2013: $206,667).

  c)

On December 1, 2011, the Company closed a private placement offering of convertible debentures in the aggregate amount of $200,000. The convertible debentures mature on December 1, 2012, subject to forced conversion as set out in the convertible debenture certificate. The convertible debentures pay an interest rate of 12% per annum (on a simple basis) and are convertible at $0.35 per unit. Each unit is comprised of one share of our common share and one share purchase warrant. Each warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share at a price of $0.40 per share up to the earlier of the maturity date of the convertible debenture or one year from conversion of the convertible debenture. We also entered into a general security agreement with the subscribers, whereby the obligations to repay the convertible debenture are secured by the Company’s working interest and production in and only in two oil wells located at Belmont Lake, Mississippi, with carrying value of $1,000,000 as of October 31, 2012. Two directors of the Company, David DeMartini and Christopher Bunka, via CAB Financial Services Ltd, solely owned by the director, subscribed to the convertible debentures with the amount of $200,000.

The aggregate principal value of the above convertible debentures was $200,000 and was allocated to the individual components on a relative fair value basis. Because the effective conversion price of the convertible debentures was above the current trading price of the Company’s common shares at the date of issuance, beneficial conversion feature is $Nil, therefore, the amount of $200,000 was recorded under loan payable.

During the ten months ended August 31, 2014, the Company has paid down the debt by $85,001 (October 31, 2013: $58,333). On November 13, 2013, the Company entered into an Amendment agreement to refinance and extend repayment terms on the loan, please refer to Note 8f for details.

  d)

On March 30, 2012, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Christopher Bunka, our President, Chief Executive Officer and Director, (“Lender”) for a non-secured promissory note in the amount of $50,000 (the “Promissory Note”). The Lender agreed to purchase a non-secured 12% interest bearing Promissory Note of our company subject to and upon the terms and conditions of the agreement.

On October 27, 2008 the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement in the amount of CAD$900,000 of Notes being purchased by the President (CAD$400,000), the President’s wholly-owned company (CAD$300,000) and a shareholder (CAD$200,000) of the Company (“Purchasers”). The Purchasers agreed to purchase an 18% interest bearing Promissory Note of the Company subject to and upon the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement. The Company’s obligations to repay the Promissory Note will be secured by certain specified assets of the Company pursuant to a Security Agreement. As long as the Promissory Note is outstanding, the Purchasers may voluntarily convert the Promissory Note to Common Shares at the conversion price of $0.45 per share of Common Stock. The Promissory Note matures on October 27, 2010 or by mutual agreement by all parties on October 27, 2009.

In connection with the Purchase Agreement, the Company issued a total of 390,000 ( 1,560,000 pre-consolidation) warrants which two warrants entitle a holder to purchase a common share of the Company of which 195,000 ( 780,000 pre-consolidation) warrants are eligible at $0.05 (adjusted price) and 195,000 ( 780,000 pre-consolidation) warrants are eligible at $0.05 (adjusted price) per share and expire October 27, 2009 and October 27, 2010, respectively.

The Company did not incur beneficiary conversion charges as the conversion price is greater than the fair value of the Company’s equity.

As at the date of the issuance of the above noted Promissory Note, the Company allocated CAD$21,321 and CAD$683,559 to warrants (additional paid-in capital) and Promissory Note based on their relative fair value.
