Recent Developments
Effective at the opening on
On
OnSeptember 23, 2019 , the Company entered into a non-binding term sheet with an arm's length party (the "Farmee"), pursuant to which the parties agreed to farm-out a portion of the Rolling Rock Property, and to establish a joint venture, subject to the entry of a definitive transaction agreement. Pursuant to the term sheet, the Farmee will commit up to$15,000,000 (the "Commitment Amount") in up to ten tranches (each, a "Tranche") in exchange for a 100% operating interest in certain wells located on the Rolling Rock Property (the "Operating Interest"). Upon full payout of the Commitment Amount, the Company will be entitled to a 20% interest in the income generated from the Farmee's activities, which interest shall be increased to 25% following a 2.0x return of capital of the Farmee's investment (the "Carry Structure"). The Operating Interest will be conveyed to the Farmee upon the execution of the Definitive Agreement for the Obligation Tranche and upon affirmative election by the Farmee to proceed with any Subsequent Tranche. A subsidiary of the Farmee, in collaboration with the Company and Rolling Rock, is anticipated to be the operator upon formation of the joint venture in regards to the participating wells. All costs related to the wellbores subsequent to re-entry, including plugging and abandonment costs, will be borne in proportion to the carry structure at the time of commencement of wellbore operations. No additional midstream fees are to be charged by the Company, Rolling Rock, any related party or affiliate thereof to the Farmee that are in excess of, or including a margin on top of the necessary operating expenses incurred to gather, compress, process, dehydrate, treat, and/or transport gas to sale. The joint venture and all gas produced as a direct result of the Farmee, the Company and Rolling Rock's activities will have primary service that takes precedent over any third party gas produce from the subject wells.

Colony Energy holds a 100% interest in and to certain petroleum, natural gas and general rights, including Alberta Crown Petroleum and Oil Leases, in 20 contiguous sections totaling 12,960 acres located in the Godin area of northernAlberta . The Company intends to develop theGodin Project in three phases beginning with a four well vertical, followed by a four section pad development of 10 wells per pad/per section. Phase 3 is intended to be the full development of 20 sections. In consideration for the acquisition of Colony Energy, we issued an aggregate of 21,000,000 shares of our common stock to the three vendors on the closing date and agreed to issue an additional 3,000,000 shares on a post-closing basis with 1,000,000 shares to be issued to one of the vendors on the first (issued), second and third anniversaries of the closing date. 16 Colony Energy is a party to a Petroleum, Natural Gas andGeneral Rights Conveyance dated as ofMarch 31, 2017 with an arm's length vendor and the principal shareholder thereof, pursuant to which the vendor is entitled to receive certain milestone payments from Colony Energy in the aggregate amount of up to$210,000 as partial consideration for the original purchase of the oil and gas assets described above. Pursuant to a Milestone Payment Addendum datedApril 7, 2017 , we agreed that if Colony Energy fails to make timely payment of any milestone payment and does not remedy such failure within 30 days after receipt of written notice from the vendor, the vendor may elect to: (i) have Colony Energy re-convey the purchased assets to the vendor; or (ii) receive 250,000 shares of our common stock, with such re-conveyance or issuance of shares to be in full and final satisfaction of all obligations to make any further milestone payment.

OnJuly 18, 2020 , but effective as ofMarch 1, 2017 , we entered into a sixth amendment to purchase and sale agreement (the "Black Dragon Sixth Amendment"), which amended the terms of the Black Dragon PSA. The Black Dragon Sixth Amendment has the effect of:

PSA relating to the Moenkopi Formation until receipt of the proceeds of one or
more financings by the Company, in which case the Company must pay 12.5% of
the proceeds of each financing close until payment in full;

OnAugust 24, 2017 , our company indirectly acquired a 75% interest in additional oil and gas leases in the Moenkopi formation covering a total of 3,852.41 acres. The leases were also acquired at the SITLA auction (the "State of Utah School and Institutional TrustLands Administration ") and are in the region covered by an Area of Mutual Interest defined under the Black Dragon PSA, which incorporates a form of joint operating agreement that will govern the joint ownership of the newly acquired leases. 18 Rolling Rock OnApril 17, 2017 , we entered into and closed a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement with two vendors to acquire 100% membership interest ofRolling Rock Resources, LLC ("Rolling Rock"), aNevada limited liability company.

City of Gold OnMay 17, 2017 , we acquired 100% of the membership interest inCity of Gold, LLC , aNevada limited liability company, from twoNevada limited liability companies pursuant to a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement dated as ofMay 17, 2017 . The Membership Interest Purchase Agreement provides for a total purchase price consisting of an aggregate of 30,000,000 common shares in the capital of our company. 15,000,000 of these shares were issued at closing (7,500,000 to each transferor); the other 15,000,000 shares are to be issued within ten Business Days afterCity of Gold, LLC earns the Option (as defined below).City of Gold, LLC's sole asset consists of 2,930,259 common shares and 2,930,259 share purchase warrants in the capital ofAsia Pacific Mining Limited ("Asia Pacific") and its rights under a binding financing and option agreement (the "Option Agreement") withAsia Pacific and an individual namedNyi Nyi Lwin .City of Gold, LLC's only liabilities consist of three demand notes for an aggregate of$1,500,000 . Under the Option Agreement,Asia Pacific andNyi Nyi Lwin have agreed to grant toCity of Gold, LLC the option (the "Option") to purchase 100% of the ownership interest in a wholly-owned subsidiary ofAsia Pacific (the "Project Subsidiary") which, in turn, owns 100% of the rights to the City of Gold mineral exploration project located inMyanmar which covers an area of approximately 465 square kilometers in close proximity to hydropower, water, and infrastructure to accommodate exploration and development of the property (the "City of Gold Project ").City of Gold, LLC will be granted the Option upon satisfaction of the following:

(the "License").
Each share purchase warrant is exercisable for a term equal to the greater of two years from the closing of the Final Funding Tranche or 18 months from the issuance of the License at an exercise price of$0.51 for the first year and$1.02 for the second year.Asia Pacific utilized$500,000 of the initial three tranches towards an exploration program of theCity of Gold Project .Asia Pacific is required to use all proceeds for the Final Funding Tranche towards exploration of the Project Subsidiary's mining interests, including no less than$500,000 towards drilling theCity of Gold Project (the "Drilling Program"). Upon the closing of the Final Funding Tranche,City of Gold, LLC will have earned the Option. We anticipate that the normal course of receiving the License will take longer than 12 months. As a result, we do not anticipate commencing the Drilling Program or incurring additional expenses related to the project within the next 12 month period. We anticipate holding our interest in theCity of Gold Project for the long term. If circumstances warrant, we intend to exercise the Option by transferring theCity of Gold Project into a subsidiary ("Spinco") with the aim of completing a "spin-off" transaction of its anticipated 70% interest inSpinco under the plan of arrangement provisions in accordance with applicable securities and corporate laws in order to realize a benefit for our company and/or our stockholders. 21Once City of Gold, LLC has earned the Option, it will have the right to exercise the Option for a period of 120 days from completion of the Drilling Program, whichCity of Gold, LLC can extend for an additional 120 days if it can demonstrate that all conditions to exercise of the Option are complete other than approval from the applicable stock exchange upon which the shares ofSpinco are to be listed. To exercise the Option,Asia Pacific has agreed to transfer the Project Subsidiary toSpinco for an exercise price consisting of$7,000,000 in cash and 30% of the issued and outstanding share capital ofSpinco (calculated on a fully diluted basis, excluding up to 10% in stock options, but including sharesSpinco may have issued in order to raise the exercise price of$7,000,000 and an additional$5,000,000 in working capital). Half of the cash portion of the exercise price must be paid upon exercise of the Option; the balance is to be paid on the first anniversary of the exercise and is to be evidenced by a one-year secured term note. AlthoughCity of Gold, LLC has the right to selectSpinco ,Spinco must meet the following criteria: at exercise of the Option,Spinco must have less than$100,000 in liabilities and$5,000,000 or more in working capital andAsia Pacific will have the right to nominate 30% of its directors. Although we currently anticipate that the exercise of the Option will be structured as a "spin-off" transaction, we have the flexibility under the Option Agreement to structure the transaction in other ways provided the conditions to exercise are met. However, we anticipate that such a structure will result in the most efficient way to monetize our interest in the City
ofGold Project at this time.

Working Capital (Deficiency)
As of
Due to the slowdown of the world economy as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we intend to decrease the level of operations. As a result, we estimate our general and administrative expense will be lower in fiscal 2021.
Our company's cash will not be sufficient to meet our working capital requirements for the next twelve month period. Our company plans to raise the capital required to satisfy our immediate short-term needs and additional capital required to meet our estimated funding requirements for the next twelve months primarily through the issuance of our equity securities. There is no assurance that our company will be able to obtain further funds required for our continued working capital requirements. The ability of our company to meet our financial liabilities and commitments is primarily dependent upon the continued financial support of our directors and shareholders, the continued issuance of equity to new shareholders, and our ability to achieve and maintain profitable operations.
There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as the continuation of our business is dependent upon obtaining further long-term financing, successful exploration of our property interests, the identification of reserves sufficient enough to warrant development, successful development of our property interests and, finally, achieving a profitable level of operations. The issuance of additional equity securities by us could result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments. Due to the uncertainty of our ability to meet our current operating and capital expenses, in their report on our audited financial statements for the year endedFebruary 29, 2020 , our independent auditors included an explanatory paragraph regarding substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our statements contain additional note disclosures describing the circumstances that lead to this disclosure by our independent auditors.
