PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

General Development of the Business

We were incorporated on May 1, 2007 as a Nevada corporation. In connection with our incorporation our then parent company, Big Cat Energy Corporation (“Big Cat”), transferred to us oil and gas prospects located in the states of Montana and Wyoming (See “Undeveloped Oil and Gas Properties, Leasehold Interests.” and “Item 2. Properties”). Thereafter, on June 8, 2007, we completed a private offering of 5,000,000 units for a total consideration of $250,000, with each unit consisting of one share of common stock and one warrant to purchase a half share of our common stock. During the year ended February 28, 2009, the Company sold 925,000 units in a registered public offering for $.20 per unit, each unit consisting of one registered free trading share of its common stock and one warrant to purchase one registered share of free trading common stock exercisable at $.50 per share. The Company received proceeds of $185,000 from the sale of units. The offering was made pursuant to Form S-1, Post Effective Amendment 3, which became effective on July 14, 2008. In accordance with EITF 00-19, “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed To, and Potentially Settled In a Company’s Own Stock,” (EITF 00-19) and the terms of the warrants and the transaction documents, the warrants were determined to represent an equity transaction and therefore the fair value of the warrants is included within the equity section and not separately recorded from the common shares issued as part of the private placement. The focus of our business is oil and gas assessment and, if warranted, exploration of our prospects.

Our principal executive office is located at 121 W. Merino St., Upton, WY 82730. Our telephone number is (307) 468-9368. Our fiscal year end is the last day of February. We have not conducted any market research into the likelihood of success of our operations in the oil and gas industry. We have no revenues and have incurred losses since inception. The information contained herein is forward looking.

Narrative Description of the Business

Undeveloped Oil and Gas Properties, Leasehold Interests

During the fiscal year ended February 29, 2008, Big Cat Energy Corporation, then the parent corporation of the Company, transferred approximately 77,076 undeveloped net mineral acres in the Powder River Basin of Montana and Wyoming to the Company in exchange for 10,000,000 shares of Sterling common stock. (see “Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities” for additional information). We may conduct exploration on one or more of our leasehold interests. There is, however, no assurance that we will. Any exploration of these properties is subject to finding adequate funding to do such exploration. In addition, we may conduct our own field tests on one or more of our properties.

During the fiscal year ended February 28, 2009, the Company decided not to continue to pay the delay rentals on the leases in Custer and Rosebud counties of Montana. Asand aabandoned ~~result~~those ofleases. ~~this~~These ~~decision and~~leases ~~the~~were ~~subsequent~~impaired ~~sale~~in ofa anprior ~~additional~~fiscal ~~interest~~year.

During the year ended February 28, 2009, the Company reviewed its oil and gas leaseholds and based on the sale of its interest in Cedar Resources, and additional information, the Company recorded an impairment of $428,855 on its leasehold interests.

-4-

During the year ended February 28, 2010, the Company completed a review of its oil and gas leaseholds and elected not to pay delay rentals on certain leases in the Powder River Basin of Montana and therefore abandoned the leases. The effect of abandonment of these leases was a reduction of 9,991 net mineral acres leaving the Company with 11,701 net mineral acres, which is considered a significant reduction in our oil and gas properties. As a result, the Company incurred abandonment expense of $228,482. In addition, the Company reviewed its remaining oil and gas leaseholds and based on current gas prices and the remaining lease terms recorded impairment of $67,400. Total abandonment and impairment charges for the year ended February 28, 2010 was $295,882.

The Company and its then parent Big Cat entered into a Consultation Services Agreement effective October 15, 2007 with American Oil & Gas Corporation (“Consultant”), a private oil and gas consulting company, with respect to the Company’s oil and gas exploration and development business. The agreement provided that Consultant would assess potential oil and gas projects for the Company and that the consultant could purchase up to a 10% working interest in the projects evaluated. Effective September 2009, the Company suspended indefinitely all consulting activity by the consultant, due to cash flow concerns.

Regulatory Matters

The Company has not produced oil and gas. However the information below regarding existing and potential regulation of oil and gas exploration, development and production summarizes various laws and regulations that do or may in the future affect the activities of the Company if it is successful in developing and producing oil and gas. The exploration, production and transportation of all types of hydrocarbons is subject to significant governmental ~~regulations~~regulation. Our operations may in the future also be affected in varying degrees by political developments and federal, state and local laws and regulations. In particular, oil and gas production operations and economics are, or in the past have been, affected by industry specific price controls, taxes, conservation, safety, environmental and other laws relating to the petroleum industry, and by changes in such laws and by constantly changing administrative regulations.

Exploration, Development and Production

If the Company is successful in conducting exploration activities and is successful in producing oil and gas, its operations will or may be subject to various types of regulation at the federal, state and local levels. These types of regulation include requiring the operator of oil and gas properties to possess permits for the drilling and development of wells, to post bonds in connection with various types of activities, and to file reports concerning operations. Most states, including Montana, where the Company’s properties are located, and some counties and municipalities, regulate one or more of the following:

	the location of wells;

	the method of developing and casing wells;

	the surface use and restoration of properties upon which wells are drilled;

	the plugging and abandoning of wells; and

	notice to surface owners and other third parties.

-5-

Some states, including Montana, regulate the size and shape of development and spacing units or pro-ration units for oil and gas properties. Some states allow forced pooling or unitization of tracts to facilitate exploitation while other states rely on voluntary pooling of lands and leases. In some instances, forced pooling or unitization may be implemented by third parties and may reduce our interest in the unitized properties. In addition, state conservation laws which establish maximum allowable rates of production from gas and oil wells, generally prohibit the venting or flaring of gas and impose requirements regarding the ratability of production. These laws and regulations may limit the amount of gas and oil that can be produced from wells or limit the number of wells or the locations at which these wells can be drilled. Moreover, each state, including Montana, generally imposes a production or severance tax with respect to the production and sale of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids ("NGLs") within its jurisdiction.

The failure to comply with these rules and regulations can result in substantial penalties, including lease suspension. The regulatory burden on the oil and natural gas industry increases our cost of doing business and, consequently, affects our profitability. Our competitors in the oil and natural gas industry are subject to the same regulatory requirements and restrictions that affect us.

Regulation of Transportation and Sale of Natural Gas

Historically, the transportation and ~~sale for~~ resale of natural gas in interstate commerce have been regulated pursuant to the Natural Gas Act of 1938, as amended (“NGA”), the Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978, as amended (“NGPA”), and regulations promulgated there under by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”) and its predecessors. In the past, the federal government has regulated the prices at which natural gas could be sold. Deregulation of wellhead natural gas sales began with the enactment of the NGPA. In 1989, Congress enacted the Natural Gas Wellhead Decontrol Act, as amended (“the Decontrol Act”). The Decontrol Act removed all NGA and NGPA price and non-price controls affecting wellhead sales of natural gas effective January 1, 1993. While sales by producers of natural gas can currently be made at unregulated market prices, Congress could reenact price controls in the future.

The Energy Policy Act of 2005 (“EP Act 2005”), gave FERC increased oversight and penalty authority regarding market manipulation and enforcement. EP Act 2005 amended the NGA to prohibit market manipulation and also amended the NGA and the NGPA to increase civil and criminal penalties for any violations of the NGA, NGPA and any rules, regulations or orders of FERC to up to $1,000,000 per day, per violation. In addition, FERC issued a final rule effective January 26, 2006, regarding market manipulation, which makes it unlawful for any entity, in connection with the purchase or sale of natural gas or transportation service subject to FERC jurisdiction, to defraud, make an untrue statement, or omit a material fact or engage in any practice, act, or course of business that operates or would operate as a fraud. This final rule works together with FERC's enhanced penalty authority to provide increased oversight of the natural gas marketplace.

The natural gas industry historically has been very heavily regulated; therefore, there is no assurance that the less stringent regulatory approach recently pursued by FERC will continue. However, we do not believe that any action taken will affect us in a way that materially differs from the way it affects other natural gas producers, gatherers and marketers, in the event we are able to produce and sell oil and gas.

Generally, intrastate natural gas transportation is subject to regulation by state regulatory agencies, although FERC does regulate the rates, terms, and conditions of service provided by intrastate pipelines that transport gas subject to FERC's NGA jurisdiction pursuant to Section 311 of the NGPA. The basis for state regulation of intrastate natural gas transportation and the degree of regulatory oversight and scrutiny given to intrastate natural gas pipeline rates and services varies from state to state. Insofar as such regulation within a particular state will generally affect all intrastate natural gas shippers within the state on a comparable basis, we believe that the regulation of similarly situated intrastate natural gas transportation in Montana and any other states in which we may operate and ship natural gas on an intrastate basis will not affect our operations in any way that is materially different from the effect of such from the effect thereof on our competitors.

-6-

Regulation of Transportation of Oil

Sales of crude oil, condensate and natural gas liquids are not currently regulated and are made at negotiated prices. The transportation of oil in common carrier pipelines is subject to rate regulation. FERC regulates interstate oil pipeline transportation rates under the Interstate Commerce Act. In general, interstate oil pipeline rates must be cost-based, although settlement rates agreed to by all shippers are permitted and market-based rates may be permitted in certain circumstances. Effective January 1, 1995, FERC implemented regulations establishing an indexing system (based on inflation) for transportation rates for oil that allowed for an increase or decrease in the cost of transporting oil to the purchaser. A review of these regulations by FERC in 2000 was successfully challenged on appeal by an association of oil pipelines. On remand, FERC, in February 2003, increased the index slightly, effective July 2001. Intrastate oil pipeline transportation rates are subject to regulation by state regulatory commissions, including those in Montana. The basis for intrastate oil pipeline regulation, and the degree of regulatory oversight and scrutiny given to intrastate oil pipeline rates, varies from state to state. Insofar as effective interstate and intrastate rates are equally applicable to all comparable shippers, we believe that the regulation of oil transportation rates will not affect our operations in any way that is materially different from the effect of such regulation on our competitors.

Further, interstate and intrastate common carrier oil pipelines must provide service on a non-discriminatory basis. Under this open access standard, common carriers must offer service to all shippers requesting service on the same terms and under the same rates. When oil pipelines operate at full capacity, access is governed by pro-rationing provisions set forth in the pipelines' published tariffs. Accordingly, if we are able to produce oil and gas for sale, we believe that access to oil pipeline transportation services generally will be available to us to the same extent as to our competitors.

Environmental Matters

Oil and gas operations are subject to numerous federal, state and local laws and regulations controlling the generation, use, storage and discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise relating to the protection of the environment. These laws and regulations may, among other things:

require the acquisition of a permit or other authorization before construction or drilling commences; restrict the types, quantities and concentrations of various substances that can be released into the environment in connection with drilling, production, and natural gas processing activities; suspend, limit or prohibit construction, drilling and other activities in certain lands lying within wilderness, wetlands, areas inhabited by endangered or threatened species, and other protected areas; require remedial measures to mitigate pollution from historical and on-going operations such as the use of pits and plugging of abandoned wells; restrict injection of liquids into subsurface strata that may contaminate groundwater; and impose substantial liabilities for pollution resulting from our operations.

	suspend, limit or prohibit construction, drilling and other activities in certain lands lying within wilderness, wetlands, areas inhabited by endangered or threatened species, and other protected areas;

	require remedial measures to mitigate pollution from historical and on-going operations such as the use of pits and plugging of abandoned wells;

	restrict injection of liquids into subsurface strata that may contaminate groundwater; and

	impose substantial liabilities for pollution resulting from our operations.

Our management believes that we are in substantial compliance with current environmental laws and regulations, and that we will not be required to make material capital expenditures to comply with existing laws. Nevertheless, changes in existing environmental laws and regulations or interpretations thereof could have a significant impact on our properties as well as the oil and gas industry in general, and thus we are unable to predict the ultimate cost and effects of future changes in environmental laws and regulations.

We are not currently involved in any administrative, judicial or legal proceedings arising under federal, state, or local environmental protection laws and regulations, or under federal or state common law, which would have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations. However, a serious incident of pollution may result in the suspension or cessation of operations in the affected area.

Title to Properties

As is customary in the oil and gas industry, we make only a cursory review of title to undeveloped oil and gas leases at the time we acquire them. However, before drilling commences, we require a thorough title search to be conducted, and any material defects in title are remedied prior to the time actual drilling of a well begins. To the extent title opinions or other investigations reflect title defects, we, rather than the seller/lessor of the undeveloped property, are typically obligated to cure any title defect at our expense. If we were unable to remedy or cure any title defect of a nature such that it would not be prudent to commence drilling operations on the property, we could suffer a loss of our entire investment in the property. We believe that we have good title to our properties, some of which are subject to immaterial encumbrances, easements and restrictions. The oil and gas properties we own are also typically subject to royalty and other similar non-cost bearing interests customary in the industry. We do not believe that any of these encumbrances or burdens will materially affect our ownership or use of our properties.

Competition

We operate in a highly competitive environment. The principal resources necessary for the exploration and production of oil and gas are leasehold prospects under which oil and gas reserves may be discovered, drilling rigs and related equipment to explore for such reserves, and knowledgeable personnel to conduct all phases of oil and gas operations. We must compete for such resources with both major oil and gas companies and independent operators. Many of these competitors have financial and other resources substantially greater than ours. Although we believe our current operating and financial resources are adequate to preclude any significant disruption of our operations in the immediate future, we cannot assure that such materials and resources will be available to us.

Employees

We are an exploration stage company and currently employ only our four officers. We intend to hire additional employees on an as needed basis.

When you consider these forward-looking statements, you should keep in mind these risk factors and the other cautionary statements in this annual report. Our forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made.

RISK FACTORS.

Each of these risk factors could adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition, as well as adversely affect the value of an investment in our common stock. Some information in this Form 10-K may contain "forward-looking" statements that discuss future expectations of our financial condition and results of operation. Any of the factors listed below and other factors contained in this annual report could cause our actual results to differ materially from the results implied by these or any other forward-looking statements made by us or on our behalf. We cannot assure you that our future results will meet our expectations.

 We are a newly formed company and have never made a profit and may not be profitable in the future. Our auditors have included an additional explanatory paragraph in their report which indicates substantial doubt on our ability to continue as a going concern. The Company was formed in May, 2007, has ~~never~~not ~~been~~received ~~profitable~~revenues from operations and may never be profitable.



We have substantial capital requirements necessary for undeveloped properties for which we may not be able to obtain adequate financing. All of our oil and gas prospects are undeveloped. Recovery of any revenues from our prospects will require significant capital expenditures. Further, any future issuances of equity securities to raise capital would likely result in dilution to our then existing shareholders and incurring additional indebtedness would result in increased interest expense and debt service charges. The development and continuation of the existing international financial and credit crisis is expected to have an ongoing adverse effect on our ability to obtain necessary investments and financing.

 We face significant competition, and many of our competitors have resources in excess of our available resources. The oil and gas industry is highly competitive. We encounter competition from other oil and gas companies in all areas of our operations, including the acquisition of properties.



We face significant competition, and many of our competitors have resources in excess of our available resources. The oil and gas industry is highly competitive. We encounter competition from other oil and gas companies in all areas of our operations, including the acquisition of properties.



Exploratory drilling is a speculative activity that may not result in commercially productive reserves and may require expenditures in excess of available cash. Drilling activities are subject to many risks, including the risk that no commercially productive oil or gas reservoirs will be encountered. Our operations are also subject to all the hazards and risks normally incident to the development, exploitation, production and transportation of, and the exploration for, oil and gas, including unusual or unexpected geologic formations, pressures, bore hole fires, mechanical failures, blowouts, explosions, uncontrollable flows of oil, gas or well fluids and pollution and other environmental risks. We intend to participate in any insurance coverage maintained by operators, although there can be no assurances that such coverage will be sufficient to cover any such losses.



Oil and natural gas prices fluctuate widely and low prices could have a material adverse impact on our business and financial results. In the event we produce oil and gas, our operations will likely be subject to volatility in prices. Historically, the markets for oil and gas have been volatile and are likely to continue to be volatile in the future. Prices for oil and gas are subject to wide fluctuations in response to: (i) relatively minor changes in the supply of, and demand for, oil and gas; (ii) market uncertainty; and (iii) a variety of additional factors, all of which are beyond our control.



Our business may suffer if we lose key personnel. We depend to a large extent on the services of our existing officers and directors. The loss of the services of any of them may have a material adverse effect on our operations. We have not entered into any employment contracts with our executive officers and have not obtained key person life insurance on them.



The liquidity, market price and volume of our stock are volatile. Our common stock is traded on the FINRA OTC Bulletin Board. The liquidity of our common stock may be adversely affected, and purchasers of our common stock may have difficulty selling our common stock, if our common stock is not traded on a suitable trading market. There is presently only a sporadic or limited public market for our common stock and it is likely that any market will be highly volatile and that the trading volume in such market will be limited.



Our stock is subject to certain penny stock rules. Our shares are classified as penny stocks and are covered by Section 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules promulgated there under which impose additional sales practice requirements on brokers/dealers who sell our securities in the aftermarket. The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer's financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. These rules require additional disclosure by broker-dealers in connection with any trades. Because of the imposition of the foregoing additional sales practices, it is possible that brokers will not want to make a market in our shares. This could prevent you from reselling your shares and may cause the price of the shares to decline. The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by such requirements may also discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in our common stock, which could severely limit the market liquidity of our common stock.

-11-



We do not intend to declare dividends in the foreseeable future. Our Board of Directors presently intends to retain any earnings for the development of our business. We therefore do not anticipate the distribution of cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Any future decision of our Board of Directors to pay cash dividends will depend, among other factors, upon our earnings, financial position and cash requirements.



We are subject to various governmental regulations which may cause us to incur substantial costs. Our operations are or could be affected from time to time in varying degrees by political developments and federal, state and local laws and regulations. These include permitting requirements, environmental clean up and compliance, taxes and other laws that may adversely affect any revenues or profits of the Company.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.

Oil and Gas Prospects.

The Company presently owns an interest in approximately 8025 leases of oil and gas prospects located in Montana. These leases cover ~~approximately 25~~15,~~636~~220.5154 gross acres. Most of the state leases carry an initial term of 5 or 10 years and have no renewal provisions. The Company has a working interest in the leases. These leases are more fully described below:

~~Totals~~	Totals	~~12,102.720~~	9,943.19	~~7,493.080~~	6,423.37

Landowners and former lessees of the foregoing leases have retained royalty interests in the properties that range from approximately 16% to 25%. The Net Mineral Acreage shown in the second column represents the net mineral acreage ownership the Company has in leases based on initial title work. If the Company decides to develop these leases, it may be required to obtain additional mineral acreage. In addition, the Company will need to establish an operator of the working interests for any potential project.

During the period May 1, 2007 (inception) to February 29, 2008, the Company paid delay rentals and expenses associated with our leaseholds in the amount of $137,180 and sold one oil and gas leasehold interest consisting of 184 net mineral acres. The Company received gross proceeds of $22,968, and retained a two percent overriding royalty interest on the transferred leasehold interest. The Company also received a refund of a deposit on certain leaseholds of $80,856. During the year ended February 28, 2009, the Company paid delay rentals and title work expenses on a Wyoming joint venture in the amount of $71,152.

During the year ended February 28, 2009, the Company completed a review of its oil and gas leaseholds and elected not to pay delay rentals on leases in Rosebud and Custer counties of Montana and therefore abandoned the leases. The effect of abandonment of these leases was a reduction in our net mineral acreage of 54,614 to 22,511. The Company reduced its impairment reserve by $516,000 to reflect the reduction in acreage.

During the year ended February 28. 2009, the Company reviewed its oil and gas leaseholds and based on the sale of its interest in Cedar Resources, see Note 9 “Subsequent Event”, and additional information, the Company recorded an impairment of $428,855 on its leasehold interests.

With regard to developing the Company’s interests, effective December 31, 2007, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with Cedar Resources Corporation, a gas producer in the Powder River Basin. We sold 50% of our leasehold interests in our Wyoming properties to Cedar Resources for cash and a 50% working interest in future development of the Company’s Wyoming leaseholds. The Company received $185,265 from the sale to Cedar Resources. Effective March 3, 2009, the Company accepted an offer to sell its 50% interest in the joint venture with Cedar Resources for $183,000. The transaction closed April 8, 2009. The current book value of the leaseholds sold was $258,110. The effect of this sale reduced the Company’s leasehold net mineral acres from 22,511 to 21,047. The Company has recorded an impairment of $75,110, as of February 28, 2009, to reflect the effects of this subsequent event.

The Company previously retained the services of American Oil and Gas Corporation, a privately held oil and gas consulting company, to assist the Company with obtaining potential oil and gas ventures in the Rocky Mountain area. However, the Company recently suspended indefinitely its agreement with American Oil and Gas Company, due to cash flow constraints.

During June 2007, we sold a private placement of 5,000,000 units of restricted common stock and warrants of Sterling at $.05 each. Each unit consisted of one (1) share of Sterling common stock and one (1) warrant, each exercisable to purchase half (1/2) a share of restricted Sterling common stock at $.25 per share. The Company received cash of $250,000 and recorded offering cost of $790. The Purchase Agreement for the units committed the Company to file a registration for the Sterling shares within 180 days of the date of the Purchase Agreement. The Company filed an S-1 (then SB-2) registration statement on December 12, 2007. This S-1 registration included an additional 10,000,000 registered shares for sale by the Company.

During the year ended February 28, 2009, the Company sold 925,000 units for $.20 per unit, each unit consisting of one registered free trading share of its common stock and one warrant to purchase one registered share of free trading common stock exercisable at $.50 per share. The Company received proceeds of $185,000 from the sale of units. The offering was made as part of the Form S-1 Post Effective

-16-

Amendment 3 which became effective on July 14, 2008. Following the above sale, the Company’s outstanding common stock increased to 15,925,000 shares. After the completion of this sale the Company closed the offering.

In accordance with EITF 00-19, “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed To, and Potentially Settled In a Company’s Own Stock,” (EITF 00-19) and the terms of the warrants and the transaction documents, the warrants were determined to represent an equity transaction and therefore the fair value of the warrants is included in the equity section and not separately recorded from the common shares issued as part of the private placement.

For the year ending February 28, 2010, the Company’s plan of operation is to evaluate new oil and gas projects that may become available to the Company and evaluate utilization of the Company’s existing Montana leasehold interests. It is estimated that such projects may range in size from $250,000 to $2,500,000 each and would be dependent upon additional fundraising. We have no assurance that future financing will be available to us on acceptable terms. If financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue, develop or expand our operations. Equity financing could result in additional dilution to existing shareholders.

Limited operating history; need for additional capital

There is limited historical financial information about our current operations upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. We are in the exploration stage and have not generated any revenues from current operations. We cannot guarantee we will be successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources, which may preclude necessary acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas prospects. If financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue, develop or expand our operations. Any equity financing could result in additional dilution to existing shareholders.

Financial Instruments and Other Information

As of February 28, ~~2009~~2010 and ~~February 29,~~2009 ~~2008~~ we had cash, ~~marketable securities,~~ accounts payable and accrued liabilities, which are each carried at approximate fair market value due to the short maturity date of those instruments. Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.

Critical Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements. The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of any oil and gas reserves, 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. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Although actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions, the Company believes that its estimates are reasonable.

Oil and Gas Properties. The Company follows the full cost method of accounting whereby all costs related to the acquisition and exploration of oil and gas properties are capitalized into a single cost center (“full cost pool”). Such costs include lease acquisition costs, geological and geophysical expenses, overhead directly related to exploration activities and costs of drilling both productive and non-productive wells. Proceeds from property sales are generally credited to the full cost pool without gain or loss recognition unless such a sale would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and the proved reserves attributable to these costs. A significant alteration would typically involve a sale of 25% or more of the proved reserves related to a single full cost pool. Generally, any such sale of unevaluated properties will also be recognized on a cost recovery basis with no gain or loss.

As of February 28, ~~2009~~2010, the Company does not have any proven oil and gas reserves and all of its properties are unevaluated. The costs of unevaluated properties will be withheld from the depletion base until such time as they are either developed or abandoned The unevaluated properties are assessed annually by the Company for impairment. Impairment is estimated by the Company by applying factors based on historical experience and other data such as primary lease terms of the properties, average holding periods of unproved properties, and geographic and geologic data of groupings of individually insignificant properties and projects. Therefore, any impairment of said unevaluated properties would result in an expense to the Company.

During the year ended February 28, 2008, the Company completed a review of its oil and gas leaseholds and elected not to pay delay rentals on leases in Rosebud and Custer counties of Montana and therefore abandoned the leases. The effect of abandonment of these leases was a reduction in our net mineral acreage of 54,614 to 22,511. The Company wrote off $516,000 against its impairment reserve to reflect the reduction in acreage.-16-

During the year ended February 28. 2009, the Company reviewed its oil and gas leaseholds and based

on the sale of its interest in Cedar Resources, ~~see Note 9 “Subsequent Event ”,~~ and additional information, such as an analysis of the limited volume of lease transactions in the area and consideration of water disposal requirements, the Company recorded an impairment of $428,855 on its leasehold interests.

~~-19-~~ During the year ended February 28, 2010, the Company completed a review of its oil and gas leaseholds and elected not to pay delay rentals on certain leases in the Powder River Basin of Montana and therefore abandoned the leases. The effect of abandonment of these leases was a reduction of 9,991 net mineral acres leaving the Company with 11,701 net mineral acres, which is considered a significant reduction in our oil and gas properties. As a result, the Company incurred abandonment expense of $228,482. In addition, the Company reviewed its remaining oil and gas leaseholds and based on current gas prices and the remaining lease terms recorded impairment of $67,400. Total abandonment and impairment charges for the year ended February 28, 2010 was $295,882.

Depletion of exploration and development costs and depreciation of production equipment is computed using the units of production method based upon estimated proved oil and gas reserves. Total well costs, if and when drilled, will be transferred to the depletable pool even when multiple targeted zones have not been fully evaluated. For depletion and depreciation purposes, relative volumes of oil and gas production and reserves are converted at the energy equivalent rate of six thousand cubic feet of natural gas to one barrel of crude oil.

Under the full cost method of accounting, capitalized oil and gas property costs, less accumulated depletion and net of deferred income taxes (full cost pool), may not exceed an amount equal to the present value, discounted at 10%, of estimated future net revenues from proved oil and gas reserves less the future cash outflows associated with the asset retirement obligations that have been accrued in the balance sheet plus the cost, or estimated fair value, if lower of unproved properties and the costs of any properties not being amortized, if any. Should the full cost pool exceed this ceiling, an impairment is recognized. The present value of estimated future net revenues is computed by applying current oil and gas prices to estimated future production of proved oil and gas reserves as of period end, less estimated future expenditures to be incurred in developing and producing the proved reserves assuming the continuation of existing economic conditions. However, subsequent commodity price increases may be utilized to reduce or eliminate any impairment.

The unevaluated oil and gas properties were initially recorded at the historical cost basis, based on cash paid by Big Cat Energy Corporation.

Risks and Uncertainties. Historically, oil and gas prices have experienced significant fluctuations and have been particularly volatile in recent years. Price fluctuations can result from variations in weather, levels of regional or national production and demand, availability of transportation capacity to other regions of the country and various other factors. Increases or decreases in prices received could have a significant impact on future results.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework and gives guidance regarding the methods used for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. In February 2008, the FASB issued staff position FSP No. 157-2, that defers the effective date of SFAS 157 for one year for certain nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. Management is currently assessing the effect of the adoption of FSP No. 157-2, to nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities.

In March 2008, the FASB issues SFAS no. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities-an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133. This Statement changes the disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and hedging activities. Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Statement 133 and its related interpretations, and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s future financial position or results of operations.

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. This Statement identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States (the GAAP hierarchy). We do not anticipate that the adoption of SFAS 162 will materially impact the Company.

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 163 Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts—an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60. This Statement requires that an insurance enterprise recognize a claim liability prior to an event of default (insured event) when there is evidence that credit deterioration has occurred in an insured financial obligation. This Statement also clarifies how Statement 60 applies to financial guarantee insurance contracts, including the recognition and measurement to be used to account for premium revenue and claim liabilities. Those clarifications will increase comparability in financial reporting of financial guarantee insurance contracts by insurance enterprises. This Statement requires expanded disclosures about financial guarantee insurance contracts. The accounting and disclosure requirements of the Statement will improve the quality of information provided to users of financial statements. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and all interim periods within those fiscal years, except for some disclosures about the insurance enterprise’s risk-management activities. We do not anticipate the adoption of SFAS 163 will have any effect on the Company’s future financial position or results of operations.

guarantees. This FSP amends FASB Statement No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, to require disclosures by sellers of credit derivatives, including credit derivatives embedded in a hybrid instrument. This FSP also amends FASB Interpretation No. 45, Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others, to require an additional disclosure about the current status of the payment/performance risk of a guarantee. Further, this FSP clarifies the Board’s intent about the effective date of FASB Statement No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. We do not anticipate the adoption of this FSP will have a material effect on the Company’s future financial position or results of operations.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and

Stockholders of Sterling Oil and Gas Company

We have audited the accompanying balance ~~sheet~~sheets of Sterling Oil and Gas Company (an exploration stage company) as of February 28, 2010 and 2009, and the related statement of operations, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the ~~year~~years then ended and the cumulative period from May 1, 2007 (inception) to February 28, ~~2009~~2010. We did not audit the cumulative period from May 1, 2007 (inception) to February 29, 2008. Those amounts were audited by other auditors whose report dated May 27, 2008 has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the cumulative amounts from May 1, 2007 (inception) to February 29, 2008, is based solely on the report of the other auditors. Sterling Oil and Gas Company’s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our ~~audit~~audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have also audited the combination in the statements of operations, cash flows, and shareholders’ equity of the amounts as presented for the year ending February 28, 2009 with the amounts for the corresponding statements for the period from May 1, 2007 (inception) through February 29, 2008. In our opinion the amounts have been properly combined for the period from May 1, 2007 (inception) through February 28, 2009.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has no revenue, has incurred substantial losses from operations and is in the exploration stage. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result for the outcome of this uncertainty.

Gillette, Wyoming

We have audited the balance sheet of Sterling Oil & Gas Company (a exploration stage company) as of February 29, 2008, and the related statements of operations, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the period May 1, 2007 (inception) through February 29, 2008. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Sterling Oil & Gas Company as of February 29, 2008, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period ended May 1, 2007 (inception) through February 29, 2008, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has no revenue and has incurred substantial losses from operations and is in the exploration stage. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans with regard to these matters are described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

1.	Organization and Nature of Operations:

Description of Operations

Sterling Oil & Gas Company is an independent energy company engaged in the exploration, development, and acquisition of natural gas and crude oil in the western United States. On May 1, 2007, Big Cat Energy Corporation (“Big Cat”) formed a subsidiary, Sterling Oil & Gas Company (“Sterling or the Company”). Big Cat transferred its unevaluated oil and gas properties, consisting of various mineral leases and related costs to Sterling, in return for 10 million shares of Sterling restricted common stock.

The Company is in the exploration stage in accordance with ~~Statement~~FASB ~~of Financial~~ Accounting Standards Codification (~~‘SFAS~~“ASC”) ~~No.~~915, 7Development Stage Entities. The Company has been in the exploration stage since inception and has yet to enter revenue-producing operations. Activities since its inception have primarily involved organization and development of the Company.

2.	Liquidity:

Going Concern

As of February 28, ~~2009~~2010, the Company had working capital of ~~approximately~~ $63136,~~736~~848 and stockholders’ equity of $~~777~~379,~~355~~688. Sterling has relied upon outside investor funds to maintain its operations and develop its business. Sterling’s plan for continuation anticipates continued funding from investors. This funding would be used for operations, for working capital, as well as business expansion during the upcoming fiscal year. The Company can provide no assurance that additional investor funds will be available on terms acceptable to the Company and there is substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

Sterling’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon raising capital through debt or equity financing and ultimately by increasing revenue and achieving profitable operations. The Company can offer no assurance that it will be successful in its efforts to raise additional proceeds or achieve profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business, and no adjustments have been made as a result of this uncertainty.

3.	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of any oil and gas reserves, 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. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various

F-76

-2924-

assumptions it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Although actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions, the Company believes that its estimates are reasonable.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts held in banks and highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Company’s cash equivalents ~~and short-term investments~~ are exposed to concentrations of credit risk. The Company manages and controls this risk by investing these funds with major financial institutions.

Short-Term Investments and Marketable Securities

The Company has purchased unsecured commercial paper (floating rate demand notes) of Ford Motor Credit Company, which has been classified as trading securities. These securities are stated at fair value based on interest rates that approximate market rates and the short term maturity of the notes. The income earned on these investments has been included in interest income in the accompanying financial statements.

Oil and Gas Properties

The Company follows the full cost method of accounting whereby all costs related to the acquisition and exploration of oil and gas properties are capitalized into a single cost center (“full cost pool”). Such costs include lease acquisition costs, geological and geophysical expenses, overhead directly related to exploration activities and costs of drilling both productive and non-productive wells. Proceeds from property sales are generally credited to the full cost pool without gain or loss recognition unless such a sale would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and the proved reserves attributable to these costs. A significant alteration would typically involve a sale of 25% or more of the proved reserves related to a single full cost pool. Generally, any such sale of unevaluated properties will also be recognized on a cost recovery basis with no gain or loss.

As of February 28, ~~2009~~2010, the Company does not have any proven oil and gas reserves and all of its properties are unevaluated. The costs of unevaluated properties will be withheld from the depletion base until such time as they are either developed or abandoned. Unevaluated properties are assessed at least annually by the Company for impairment. Impairment is estimated by the Company by applying factors based on historical experience and other data such as primary lease terms of the properties, average holding periods of unproved properties, and geographic and geologic data of groupings of individually insignificant properties and projects. Therefore, any impairment of said unevaluated properties would result in an expense to the Company.

~~F-8~~During year ended February 28, 2010, the Company completed a review of its oil and gas leaseholds and elected not to pay delay rentals on certain leases in the Powder River Basin of Montana and therefore abandoned the leases. The effect of abandonment of these leases was a reduction of 9,991 net mineral acres leaving the Company with 11,701 net mineral acres, which is considered a

Under the full cost method of accounting, capitalized oil and gas property costs, less accumulated depletion and net of deferred income taxes (full cost pool), may not exceed an amount equal to the present value, discounted at 10%, of estimated future net revenues from proved oil and gas reserves less the future cash outflows associated with the asset retirement obligations that have been accrued in the balance sheet plus the cost, or estimated fair value, if lower of unproved properties and the costs of any properties not being amortized, if any. Should the full cost pool exceed this ceiling, an impairment is recognized. The present value of estimated future net revenues is computed by applying current oil and gas prices to estimated future production of proved oil and gas reserves as of period end, less estimated future expenditures to be incurred in developing and producing the proved reserves assuming the continuation of existing economic conditions. ~~However, subsequent commodity price increases may be utilized to reduce or eliminate any impairment.~~

The unevaluated oil and gas properties were initially recorded at the historical cost basis, based on cash paid by Big Cat ~~Energy Corporation~~.

Asset Retirement Obligations

The Company will follow the provisions of ~~SFAS~~ASC ~~No. 143~~410, ~~Accounting for~~ Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations (ARO); at such time as it acquires or drills oil and gas wells. The estimated fair value of the future costs associated with dismantlement, abandonment and restoration of oil and gas properties will be recorded when incurred, generally upon acquisition or completion of a well. The net estimated costs will be discounted to present values using a risk adjusted rate over the estimated economic life of the oil and gas properties. Such costs will be capitalized as part of the related asset. The asset will be depleted on the units-of-production method ~~on a field-by-field basis~~. The associated liability will be classified in other long-term liabilities in the accompanying balance sheets. The liability will be periodically adjusted to reflect (1) new liabilities incurred, (2) liabilities settled during the period, (3) accretion expense, and (4) revisions to estimated future cash flow requirements. The accretion expense will be recorded as a component of depreciation, depletion and amortization expense in the accompanying statements of operations. AtAs ~~the end~~ of February ~~2009~~28, 2010 and ~~2008~~2009, the Company has ~~recorded~~ no ~~SFAS~~ARO ~~143~~ obligation.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for by recognizing deferred income tax assets and liabilities for the expected future income tax consequences, based on enacted tax laws, of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets, liabilities and carryforwards. Deferred tax assets are recognized for the expected future effects of all deductible temporary differences, loss carryforwards and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets are then reduced, if deemed necessary, by a valuation allowance for the amount of any tax benefit which, more likely than not, are not expected to be realized.

~~On March 1, 2008 we adopted FASB Interpretation No.48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes~~ F-- An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, or FIN 48. FIN 48 provides detailed guidance for the financial statement recognition, measurement and disclosure of uncertain tax positions recognized in the financial statements in accordance with SFAS No.109. Tax positions must meet a "more-likely-than-not" recognition threshold at the effective date to be recognized upon the adoption of FIN 48 and in subsequent periods. We have identified no significant uncertain tax positions as of February 28, 2009. The cumulative effect of adopting FIN 48 has resulted in no FIN 48 liability on the balance sheet. The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of the date of adoption was zero.8

between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets, liabilities and carryforwards. Deferred tax assets are recognized for the expected future effects of all deductible temporary differences, loss carryforwards and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets are then reduced, if deemed necessary, by a valuation allowance for the amount of any tax benefit which, more likely than not, are not expected to be realized.

We adopted ASC 740, Income Taxes as of March 1, 2008. This ASC provides detailed guidance for the financial statement recognition, measurement and disclosure of uncertain tax positions recognized in the financial statements. Tax positions must meet a “more-likely-than-not” recognition threshold at the effective date to be recognized upon the adoption of ASC 740 and in subsequent periods. We have identified no significant uncertain tax positions as of February 28, 2010 or 2009. The cumulative effect of adopting ASC 740 has not resulted in a liability on the balance sheet. The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of the date of adoption was zero.

We recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. No interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions were accrued as of February 28, 2010 or 2009.

Risks and Uncertainties

Historically, oil and gas prices have experienced significant fluctuations and have been particularly volatile in recent years. Price fluctuations can result from variations in weather, levels of regional or national production and demand, availability of transportation capacity to other regions of the country and various other factors. Increases or decreases in prices received could have a significant impact on future results.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, ~~accounts receivable~~ and accounts payable. The fair market value of these financial instruments approximates or is equal to the book value.

Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents and accounts payable. The fair market value of these financial instruments approximates or is equal to the book value.

In the first quarter of fiscal year 2009, the Company adopted ASC 820, Fair Market Measurement and Disclosures including the application of the statement to non-recurring, non-financial assets and liabilities. The adoption of ASC 820 did not have a material impact on the Company’s fair value measurements. ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value into three broad levels as follows:

Level 1- Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

F-9

-27-

Level 2- Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly.

Level 3- Unobservable inputs based on the Company’s own assumptions,

ASC 820 requires the use of observable market data if such data is available without undue cost and effect.

	Fair Value Measurements at Reporting Date Using
Description	February 28, 2010		Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
Oil & gas properties-unevaluated properties	$	242,840	$	0	$	0	$	242,840
Total	$	242,840	$	0	$	0	$	242,840

Level 3 assets are comprised of the impairment reserve for unevaluated properties. The Company has identified the impairment reserve as a Level 3 due to the lack of available data to obtain market values for the unevaluated properties. The company considered current gas prices and the remaining lease term as a basis for determining the reserve amount.

The following table sets for the reconciliation of fair market value of the impairment reserve classified as Level 3 for the year ended February 28. 2010.

	Year Ended February 28, 2010
Balance February 28,2009	$	713,619

Net Loss Per Share

Basic net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Contingently issuable shares are included in the computation of basic net income (loss) per share when the related conditions are satisfied. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation if their effect is anti-dilutive.

As of February 28, 2010 and 2009 the Company had 15,925,000 shares of common stock outstanding and warrants for the purchase of 3,425,000 shares. ~~As of February 29, 2008 the Company had 15,000,000 shares of common stock outstanding and warrants for the purchase of 2,500,000 shares.~~ The warrants were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for both years, due to the fact that they were anti-dilutive.

Other Comprehensive Income

The Company does not have any material items of other comprehensive income for the years ended February ~~2009~~2010 and ~~2008~~2009. Therefore, total comprehensive income (loss) is the same as net income (loss) for these periods.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the February 2928, ~~2008~~2009 financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation in the February 28, ~~2009~~2010 financial statements, such reclassifications had no effect on the net loss.

instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Statement 133 and its related interpretations, and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s future financial position or results of operations.

In September 2008 the FASB issued FSP FAS 133-1 and FIN 45-4 Disclosures about Credit Derivatives and Certain Guarantees: An Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 and FASB Interpretation No. 45; and Clarification of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 161. The credit derivatives market has expanded significantly over the past few years. Financial statement users and others have expressed concerns that the current disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and certain guarantees do not adequately address the potential adverse effects of changes in credit risk on the financial position, financial performance, and cash flows of the sellers of credit derivatives and certain guarantees. This FSP amends FASB Statement No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, to require disclosures by sellers of credit derivatives, including credit derivatives embedded in a hybrid instrument. This FSP also amends FASB Interpretation No. 45, Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others, to require an additional disclosure about the current status of the payment/performance risk of a guarantee. Further, this FSP clarifies the Board’s intent about the effective date of FASB Statement No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. We do not anticipate the adoption of this FSP will have a material effect on the Company’s future financial position or results of operations.

The federal net operating loss (NOL) carryforward of approximately $~~958~~1,~~000~~516,500 as of February 28, ~~2009~~2010 begins to expire in 2028. Internal Revenue Code Section 382 places a limitation on the amount of taxable income which can be offset by NOL carryforwards after a change in control (generally greater than 50% change in ownership) of a loss corporation. Generally, after a change in control, a loss corporation cannot deduct NOL carryforwards in excess of the Section 382 limitation. Due to these “change in ownership” provisions, utilization of NOL carryforwards may be subject to an annual limitation regarding their utilization against taxable income in future periods. We have not performed a Section 382 analysis. However, if performed, Section 382 may be found to limit potential future utilization of our NOL carryforwards.

these “change in ownership” provisions, utilization of NOL carryforwards may be subject to an annual limitation regarding their utilization against taxable income in future periods. We have not performed a Section 382 analysis. However, if performed, Section 382 may be found to limit potential future utilization of our NOL carryforwards.

We have established a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets because, based on the weight of available evidence including our continued operating losses, it is more likely than not that all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Because of the full valuation allowance, no income tax expense or benefit is reflected on the statement of operations.

Based on managements’ assessment of ~~FIN~~ASC 48740, Income Taxes, it was concluded that the adoption of ~~FIN~~ASC 48740, as of March 1. 2008, had no significant impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position, and required no adjustments to the opening balance sheet.

8. Commitments and Contingencies:

Environmental Issues– The Company is engaged in oil and gas exploration and production and may become subject to certain liabilities as they relate to environmental clean up of well sites or other environmental restoration procedures as they relate to the drilling of oil and gas wells and the operation thereof. If the Company acquires existing or previously drilled well bores, the Company may not be aware of what environmental safeguards were taken at the time such wells were drilled or during such time the wells were operated. Should it be determined that a liability exists with respect to any environmental clean up or restoration, the liability to cure such a violation could fall upon the Company. Management believes its properties, all of which are currently unevaluated, are operated in conformity with local, state and federal regulations. No claim has been made, nor is the Company aware of any uninsured liability which the Company may have, as it relates to any environmental clean up, restoration or the violation of any rules or regulations relating thereto.

~~9. SUBSEQUENT EVENT:~~F-13

On March 3, 2009, the Company accepted an offer to sell its 50% interest in a joint venture with Cedar Resources for $183,000. The transaction closed April 8, 2009 and was effective as of that date. The current book value of the leaseholds sold was $258,110. The effect of this sale reduced the Company’s leasehold net mineral acres from 22,511 to 21,047.-31-

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.

In connection with changes in accountants, there have been no reportable disagreements or reportable events.

ITEM 9A(T). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Based on an evaluation required by paragraph (b) of §240.13a–15 of the effectiveness of the registrant's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in §240.13a–15(e)), the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of February 28, ~~2009,~~2010 its disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The framework used by management to evaluate the effectiveness of the registrant's internal control over financial reporting as required by paragraph (c) of §240.13a–15 is the COSO Internal Control – Integrated Framework. Based on management’s assessment, management concluded that the Company internal control over financial reporting is effective as of February 28, ~~2009~~2010. This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report is not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report.

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or were reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended February 28, ~~2009~~2010.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Company's directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of the Company's equity securities to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of equity securities of the Company. Officers, directors and shareholders holding greater than ten percent are required to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. To the Company's knowledge, based solely on review of the copies of any such reports furnished to the Company, during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, and thereafter, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to officers, directors and shareholders holding greater than ten percent were timely met.

forms they file. To the Company's knowledge, based solely on review of the copies of any such reports furnished to the Company, during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2009, and thereafter, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to officers, directors and shareholders holding greater than ten percent were timely met.

Code of Ethics

The Company has adopted a code of ethics for its principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, and persons performing similar functions. A copy of the Code of Ethics will be furnished upon request without charge.

Board of Director’s Meetings and Attendance at Shareholder Meetings

The Company does not have nominating, compensation or audit committees of the Board. The full board conducts the function of an audit committee. There were 8two meetings of the Board of Directors held during the fiscal year ended February 28, ~~2009~~ 2010. All members of the board were in attendance at the meetings. The Company expects all directors to be in attendance at shareholder meetings and attempts to schedule meetings at a time when all directors will be able to attend, however conflicting schedules, may on occasion preclude attendance at shareholder meetings.

Audit Committee and Charter

The Company's board of directors does not have an "audit committee financial expert," within the meaning of such phrase under applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, serving on its audit committee. However, the board of directors believes that all members of its board are financially literate and experienced in business matters, and that one or more members of the board are capable of (i) understanding generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and financial statements, (ii) assessing the general application of GAAP principles in connection with our accounting for estimates, accruals and reserves, (iii) analyzing and evaluating our financial statements, (iv) understanding our internal controls and procedures for financial reporting; and (v) understanding audit committee functions, all of which are attributes of an audit committee financial expert. However, the board of directors believes that there is not any board member who has obtained these attributes through the experience specified in the SEC's definition of "audit committee financial expert." Further, like many small companies, it is difficult for the Company to attract and retain board members who qualify as "audit committee financial experts," and competition for these individuals is significant. The board believes that its current board is able to fulfill its role under SEC regulations despite not having a designated "audit committee financial expert."

Nominating Committee

The full board of directors of the Company functions as a nominating committee to select potential additional directors of the Company. The board has not specifically designated a separate nominating committee because all members of the board of directors desire to be involved in the selection of any new director. The board does not have a specific charter to govern its actions as a nominating committee, nor are any members of the board “independent”. Due to the relatively small size of the Company, the risks associated with service on the board of a public company and the limited compensation available to such directors, the Company considers it unlikely that a qualified person would serve on the board that was truly independent. However, the board’s unwritten policy for consideration of potential members of the board nominated by shareholders is to seriously consider any potential board member that has personal relationships and/or expertise that might be beneficial to the Company’s business. The Company has in the past and expects to continue in the future to be interested in discussions with persons interested in the Company’s business and able to make a significant contribution to the success of the Company. Shareholders that desire to introduce persons to the Company’s board of directors should contact Timothy Barritt, Principal Executive Officer and Director with any suggestions or recommendations for director. He may be reached through the Company’s office telephone 307-468-9368 during regular business hours. A copy of the resume of any candidates should be submitted with the inquiry.

At the present time, the Company is not actively searching for additional members of the board, however members of the board are interested in meeting qualified persons. Qualified persons normally would be persons that have professional or technical experience in the oil and gas industry. The Company is especially interested in persons with fund raising contacts or technology development contacts. Generally, shareholder nominees would be evaluated in the same manner as any other nominee. The current directors were each originally selected as directors upon organization of the Company.

Compensation Committee and Interlocks and Insider Participation

The full board of directors of the Company functions as a compensation committee. The board has not specifically designated a separate compensation committee due to the relatively small size of the Company. The board does not have a specific charter to govern its actions as a compensation committee, nor are any members of the board “independent”. Due to the size of the Company, the risks associated with service on the board of a public company and the limited compensation available to such directors, the Company considers it unlikely that a qualified person would serve on the board that was truly independent.

Other Compensation

During the fiscal ~~year~~years ended February 28, 2010 and 2009, the Company paid a portion of the fringe benefit costs for the ~~officers of the Company. During the fiscal year ended February 29, 2008, there was no Other Compensation~~ paid ~~to the~~ officers of the Company. The Company does not have outside directors.

Indemnification

Under our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the corporation, we may indemnify an officer or director who is made a party to any proceeding, including a law suit, because of his position, if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in our best interest. We may advance expenses incurred in defending a proceeding. To the extent that the officer or director is successful on the merits in a proceeding as to which he is to be indemnified, we must indemnify him against all expenses incurred, including attorney's fees. With respect to a derivative action, indemnity may be made only for expenses actually and reasonably incurred in defending the proceeding, and if the officer or director is judged liable, only by a court order. The indemnification is intended to be to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Nevada.

Regarding indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, which may be permitted to directors or officers under Nevada law, we are informed that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, indemnification is against public policy, as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

Change in Control

Effective April 2, 2008, Big Cat Energy Corporation, the then 66.67% parent of the Company, spun off 10,000,000 shares of the Company it owned pro rata to its existing shareholders. The spin off may be deemed to be a change in control of the Company, although the present officers and directors of the Company have continued to be officers, directors and principal stockholders of both Big Cat and the Company. Pursuant to the spin off of the Sterling shares, Messrs. Barritt, Stockdale and Murphy each received 988,634 shares of Sterling common stock.

ITEM 13.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE.

On May 1, 2007, Big Cat Energy Corporation formed a subsidiary, Sterling Oil & Gas Company “Sterling”). Big Cat then transferred its unevaluated oil and gas properties, consisting of various mineral leases and related costs, to Sterling in return for 10 million shares of Sterling restricted common stock. See “Item 12 SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT - Change in Control” for additional information.

The Company does not have independent directors. Due to the size of the Company, the risks associated with service on the board of a public company and the limited compensation available to such directors, the Company considers it unlikely that a qualified person would serve on the board that was truly independent.
