Overview of Our Projects

Mongolia

DWM Petroleum owns 74% of Gobi Energy Partners GmbH, which owns record title to exploration licenses for Blocks XIII and XIV. These Blocks are located on Mongolia’s southern border in the central part of the East Gobi Rift oil and gas basin in South-eastern Mongolia, as shown on the map, below. Gobi Energy Partners LLC, a wholly-owned Mongolian subsidiary of Gobi Energy Partners GmbH, is the operator of the oil and gas project on Blocks XIII and XIV.

On April 21, 2009, DWM Petroleum AG entered into production sharing contracts for these two blocks with the Mongolian government. These production sharing contracts provide for a five-year exploration period (with a two year extension) that began on May 21, 2009, and a twenty-year exploitation period (with two five year extensions allowed). On May 31, 2011, these two production sharing contracts were assigned to Gobi Energy Partners GmbH as part of a restructuring. Block XIII, also known as Tsagaan-Els, originally contained 11,590 km²(2,863,951 acres) and Block XIV, also known as Zuunbayan, originally contained 8,731 km² (2,157,477 acres). In April 2012, Gobi Energy Partners GmbH relinquished 8,734 km² leaving 6,930 km² in Block XIII and 4,657 km² in Block XIV. In April 2013, Gobi Energy Partners GmbH relinquished 8,566 km², leaving 1,030 km² in Block XIII and 1,911 km²in Block XIV. In 2014 Gobi Energy Partners GmbH did not relinquish any further areas. These production sharing contracts were the subject of a Moratorium that expired in May 2014, which extended the contract period by one year until May 21, 2015. We have applied for an additional extension of the Moratorium to give us until May 21, 2016 but this additional extension has not yet been granted. We originally asked for the Moratorium and the extension because we were unable to identify economic prospects on which to expend our outstanding commitments.

- 6 -

The location of these blocks is set out in the map below:

Ten percent of the equity in Gobi Energy Partners GmbH is owned by Wit Alliance Ltd, a 100% subsidiary of Shunkhlai Group LLC. Shunkhlai Group is a Mongolian company engaged in beverage production, logistics, mining, petroleum, transport, finance, health, property, telecommunications, publishing and infrastructure. Pursuant to a cooperation agreement dated November 5, 2010, Shunkhlai Group provides our company with ongoing advisory and consulting services.

In our November 5, 2010 cooperation agreement with Shunkhlai Group LLC, we agreed to pay all of the exploration and overhead expenses contemplated in an agreed work program and budget during a five-year exploration period consisting of a first phase of one year, a second phase of two years and a third phase of two years. In the event of a commercial discovery, trade sale and/or a corporate market transaction, Shunkhlai Group LLC agreed to repay its proportionate share (10%) of exploration and overhead expenses incurred during phases 2 and 3, together with interest at a rate of eight percent per annum, but we agreed not to charge interest during 2010. Also, if Shunkhlai Group LLC transfers its interest in Gobi Energy Partners GmbH to a third party, or if there is a change in control of Shunkhlai Group LLC, Shunkhlai Group LLC will be required to repay its proportionate share of exploration and overhead expenses incurred during phases 2 and 3 together with all accrued interest.

Operating Activities

Early in 2012, Gobi Energy Partners LLC focused on the integration and interpretation of seismic data acquired in 2011. From April to May 2012, it conducted a passive seismic campaign using low-frequency spectroscopy to support the seismic. From June to August 2012, Gobi Energy also conducted a 2D seismic acquisition (vibroseis) program covering 335 kilometers over both blocks.

Gobi Energy spudded its first well, Ger Chuluu A1, on August 23, 2012. It stopped drilling at a depth of 1098 meters without having encountered any seal. The initially planned second well East Sainshand A1 was located in another sub-basin 170 kilometers away. In order to have a conclusive evaluation of the Ger Chuluu sub-basin, Gobi Energy decided to drill a second well before moving to East Sainshand. Ger Chuluu D1, the second well in the Ger Chuluu sub-basin, was spudded on September 21, 2012. Drilling was stopped after reaching 600 meters without any hydrocarbon shows. After logging, the well was plugged and abandoned.

Gobi Energy had originally focused on six sub-basins in Mongolia; after drilling in the Ger Chuluu sub basin and conducting additional studies, Gobi Energy focused on two sub basins, East and West Sainshand. In order to enlarge the area to define more prospects to drill the outstanding commitments, Gobi Energy signed a moratorium with the government of Mongolia for the duration of one year ending in May 2014. Gobi Energy applied for an extension of the moratorium until the end of May 2015. The approval is still pending. During this period Gobi Energy expects the government to award us with relinquished areas from adjacent blocks.

Tajikistan

CJSC Somon Oil Company:

Through our wholly-owned subsidiary, DWM Petroleum AG, we own 90% of the issued and outstanding shares of CJSC Somon Oil Company (“Somon Oil”), a Tajik company originally formed in 2005. The remaining 10% is owned by Anavak LLC. Somon Oil owns two exploration licenses located in Tajikistan. One of these licenses, known as Zapadnaya, or the West license, was granted by the Tajikistan government on July 25, 2007; the other, known as Severo-Zapadnaya, or the North-West license, was granted by the Tajikistan government on July 27, 2009.

- 9 -

The locations of these licenses are shown on the map below:

Santos International Ventures Pty Ltd funded all expenditures of Somon Oil, and had an option to enter into a farm in agreement in respect of these licenses, but decided on December 21, 2012 not to pursue this option. Santos continued to fund current capital expenditures, as well as certain general and administrative costs of Somon Oil until January 2013. We remain confident that the project has exploration potential and we are actively working to form a new consortium. Commitments were transferred from 2012/2013 to 2013/2014 and Somon Oil plans to complete them once a new consortium is formed and funded.

Expenditures and Commitments

The following table sets forth the approximate expenditures incurred by Somon Oil, pursuant to the licenses during the periods indicated (in USD):

The West License

The West license is located in the Fergana Basin and contains approximately 303,198 acres (approximately 1,227 km²). Although this license expired on July 25, 2014, Somon Oil received an extension in January 2015 and the license has been extended to July 25, 2017. Approximately sixty percent of the block in this license area is covered by former Soviet era seismic data. It is within this area that Somon Oil’s targeted leads and prospects are found and the geological and structural setting appears to be very similar to the former Tuzluk license in Kyrgyzstan. Somon Oil has identified prospects located close to existing oil fields, all of which were originally identified by Soviet seismic. The seven year work commitment for the West license contains 650 km of 2D seismic and two wells.

- 10 -

Somon Oil intends to spud the first well in the beginning of the third quarter 2015; it believes that critical bottlenecks consist of Long Lead Items and rig availability. Depending on the results from the first well, Somon Oil intends to drill a second well during the license extension period.

The North-West License

In July 2009, Somon Oil was granted the North-West petroleum license which entitles the company to explore an exploration area covering 2,169 km2 (535,971 acres) for a seven year term expiring in July 2016. The license area is located in the north part of the Sugd region, bordering on Uzbekistan. To the south-west the license area is adjacent to Somon Oil’s West license area. The seven year work commitment for the North-West license contains 430 km of 2D seismic, 100 km2 of 3D seismic and three wells. Somon Oil plans to drill its second exploration well in the North West License. Existing exploration data within the North-West license area includes six wells and 1,100 km of 2D seismic which was acquired during Soviet exploration campaigns between 1964 and 1992. In case of discovery, the license provides that Somon Oil will have the exclusive right to develop and exploit the discovery. Somon Oil is targeting subsalt structures as well as structural prospects in the center and at the edge of the Fergana basin.

To date, Somon Oil has not discovered any reserves on either the West or the North-West license areas in Tajikistan.

Operating Activities – Somon Oil

In April 2012, Somon Oil finalized the acquisition of 871 km of 2D seismic. The survey was very complex due to the different landscapes which had to be covered. It included areas with vibro seismic, different dynamite seismic in the mountains and offshore seismic on Lake Kayrakkum. Final seismic processing and interpretation was concluded in 2013.

On May 7, 2012, Somon Oil entered into a Production Sharing Agreement (we refer to this agreement as a “PSA”) with the Government of the Republic of Tajikistan. The PSA grants to Somon Oil the exclusive right and authority to carry out all petroleum exploration, development and production activities in the defined contract area. The PSA also regulates these activities and determines how funds invested by Somon Oil will be recovered and how profit oil will be shared between the government and Somon Oil.

During the third quarter of 2012, Somon Oil finalized the first steps of processing and interpretation of the seismic acquisition program finished in April 2012 and commenced the studies for the first two wells. At the beginning of 2014, Somon Oil entered into a contract for the preparation of the first well location, Kayrakkum B, located in the West License. The civil construction at the well site was completed in June 2014, and the well site has been handed over to Somon Oil, which had suspended operations when the license expired in July of 2014. Operations resumed when the West license was extended on January 31, 2015 and activities to spud the first well have now resumed. As disclosed above, Somon Oil now plans to spud the first well during the third quarter of 2015.

Petroleum Sugd:

On December 31, 2012, DWM Petroleum entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with Kavsar General Trading FZE, an unrelated third party, to purchase 80% of the equity interest in TF Petroleum AG, a Swiss company, for USD 21,000,000 in cash. The agreement provided that, at the time of the closing of the transaction, TF Petroleum would own Petroleum Sugd, a limited liability joint venture formed under the laws of Tajikistan. Petroleum Sugd owns and operates certain producing oilfield assets located in Tajikistan. Energy Partners Austria GmbH, Kavsar’s then wholly-owned subsidiary and an Austria registered company, currently owns the majority of the equity in Petroleum Sugd.

On March 31, 2014 DWM Petroleum and Kavsar signed a Supplement Agreement dated for effect September 27, 2013. The Supplement Agreement provided that DWM Petroleum was entitled to receive from Kavsar 65% of the equity in Energy Partners Austria, which was the beneficial owner of 57.42% of the equity in Petroleum Sugd, subject to the payment of USD 2,000,000 by DWM Petroleum. The equity in Energy Partners Austria was to be transferred to TF Petroleum AG at closing. The Supplement Agreement also provided that Kavsar was to transfer all shares of TF Petroleum AG, a Swiss company, to DWM Petroleum, for a consideration of CHF 100,000 (approx. USD 111,656). DWM Petroleum was then to be eligible to future profits and dividends from Energy Partners Austria from January 1, 2014 onwards. On April 4, 2014, DWM Petroleum gained control of TF Petroleum AG, which resulted in an increase in restricted cash and a decrease in transaction prepayment of CHF 100,000 (approx. USD 111,656). The closing of the transaction was subject to the capital restructuring requirement of Energy Partners Austria by Kavsar, the notary act and regulatory approval. On November 21, 2014 the notary act was signed which is effective November 21, 2014. On November 28, 2014, DWM transferred USD 2,000,000 to Kavsar in order to finalize the transaction. After the finalization of the Supplement Agreement, the Share Purchase Agreement is concluded.

- 11 -

On January 15, 2015, pursuant to the Supplement Agreement dated September 11, 2014 and a Notary Act dated November 21, 2014, DWM Petroleum AG, through its 100% subsidiary TF Petroleum AG, completed the acquisition of the 65% interest in Energy Partners Austria, for total consideration of USD 12,000,000 to the seller, Kavsar General Trading FZE. Energy Partners Austria holds 57.42% of the equity interest in the Tajik company, Petroleum Sugd; the remaining 42.58% equity interest in Petroleum Sugd is held by the Tajik state-owned oil company Sugdneftugas. Petroleum Sugd owns ten producing oil fields in the north of Tajikistan.

A field development program for the first five years has been developed. This program consists of light work overs (such as changing pumps, tubing, pumping units and clean ups), heavy work overs (plug backs, reperforations, stimulations, fishing and casing repairs) and new wells mainly in the shallow fields. The program will also include replacing the gathering lines, the pumping units and setting up the necessary operating facilities.

The focus will be initially on the low risk shallow fields and then gradually moving to the deeper fields.

Kyrgyz Republic (South Petroleum Company)

At the beginning of 2014, our wholly-owned subsidiary, DWM Petroleum AG, owned 25% of the issued shares of South Petroleum Company, a Kyrgyz company incorporated in 2004. South Petroleum Company was formally liquidated as of October 24, 2014.

Competition

The oil and gas industry is intensely competitive. We compete with numerous individuals and companies, including many major oil and gas companies that have substantially greater technical, financial and operational resources and staff. We compete with these individuals and companies for desirable oil and gas leases, exploration and exploitation licenses, and necessary drilling equipment, as well as access to personnel and funds.

We believe several factors that differentiate us from our competitors include our extensive personal network among the oil and gas industry in the Commonwealth of Independent States, an ability to increase value through exploration of known structures and our command of modern geological knowledge and new concepts implemented to existing seismic and well data bases.

Need for Government Approval

Our business depends on the approval of different governments for various matters, including land tenure, prices, royalties, production rates, environmental protection, income, the grant of exploration and exploitation rights for oil and gas projects and the imposition of drilling obligations in connection with these grants, and the exportation of crude oil, natural gas and other products. Government regulations may change from time-to-time in response to economic or political conditions. The exercise of discretion by governmental authorities under existing regulations, the implementation of new regulations or the modification of existing regulations affecting the oil and gas industry could reduce demand for crude oil and natural gas, increase our costs and have a material adverse impact on our operations. Before proceeding with a project, the participants in the project must obtain all required regulatory approvals. The process of obtaining these approvals can involve stakeholder consultation, environmental impact assessments and public hearings, among other things. In addition, regulatory approvals can involve conditions, including the payment of security deposits and other financial commitments.

All our licenses depend on government regulation and approval.

Regulation

Our industry is affected by numerous laws and regulations, including discharge permits for drilling operations, drilling and abandonment bonds, reports concerning operations, the spacing of wells, pooling of properties, taxation and other laws and regulations relating generally to the energy industry. These laws and regulations vary according to where each project is located. Changes in any of these laws and regulations or the denial or vacating of permits and licenses could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Our operations are in, and our focus will continue to be on, operations in emerging markets. Generally, legal structures, codes and regulations in emerging markets are not as well defined as they can be in more developed markets and they are therefore more likely to change rapidly. In view of the many uncertainties with respect to current and future laws and regulations, including their applicability to us, we cannot predict the overall effect of such laws and regulations on our future operations.

We believe that our operations currently comply in all material respects with applicable laws and regulations. There are no pending or threatened enforcement actions related to any such laws or regulations. We believe that the existence and enforcement of such laws and regulations will have no more restrictive effect on our operations than on other similar companies in the energy industry.

Environmental Matters

We and the projects that we have invested in are subject to national and local environmental laws and regulations relating to water, air, hazardous substances and wastes, and threatened or endangered species that restrict or limit our business activities for purposes of protecting human health and the environment. Compliance with the multitude of regulations issued by the appropriate administrative agencies can be burdensome and costly. We believe that our operations currently comply in all material respects with applicable national and local environmental laws and regulations.

Exploration

Our business plan was focused on exploration until 2012 (the execution of our business plan has largely focused on acquiring prospective oil and gas licenses and negotiating production sharing and farm-out agreements). Since then, while we have continued to focus on exploration, we have also begun to look for ways to expand into production as we believe that such a strategy will allow us to maximize the long-term exploration and development of our oil and gas projects.

Except in connection with the exploration of our properties or the conduct of due diligence on properties that we might be interested in acquiring, we do not conduct research and development.

Employees

We have 32 employees, including our directors. Of our 30 full-time employees (excluding two non-executive directors), eight are located in Switzerland and the rest are located in Mongolia and Tajikistan. We anticipate increasing our number of employees and outsourced contract employment over the next twelve months depending on the need of our exploration and production activities.

ITEM 1A RISK FACTORS

An investment in our common stock involves a number of very significant risks. You should carefully consider the following risks and uncertainties in addition to other information in this annual report in evaluating our company and our business before purchasing shares of our common stock. Our business, operating results and financial condition could be seriously harmed as a result of the occurrence of any of the following risks. You could lose all or part of your investment due to any of these risks. You should invest in our common stock only if you can afford to lose your entire investment.

Risks Associated with Our Company

We need additional financing to support operations and future capital commitments.

There is no guarantee that we will be able to secure additional financing on acceptable terms, or at all, if needed to fully fund our 2015 drilling budget and to support future development activities. As shown in the report from our independent auditors, there is a substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, however, the financial statements do not show any adjustments to reflect this.

Our lack of diversification increases the risk of an investment in us, and our financial condition and results of operations may deteriorate if we fail to diversify.

We have or are directly involved in projects in Mongolia and Tajikistan. Our focus on a limited number of countries in Asia presents the risk that we could be impacted more acutely by factors affecting this region, and in particular factors in this region that affect our industry.

We may not effectively manage the growth necessary to execute our business plan.

Our business plan anticipates an increase in the number of our strategic partners, equipment suppliers, manufacturers, dealers, distributors and customers especially as we attempt to expand our operations to include production. This growth could place significant strain on our current personnel, systems and resources. We expect that we will be required to hire qualified employees to help us manage our growth effectively. We believe that we may also be required to improve our management, technical, information and accounting systems, controls and procedures. We may not be able to maintain the quality of our operations, control our costs, continue complying with all applicable regulations and expand our internal management, technical information and accounting systems to support our desired growth. If we fail to manage our anticipated growth effectively, our business could be adversely affected.

We may be forced to liquidate one or more subsidiaries due to regulatory requirements which could have a material adverse effect on our business and operations.

All of our licenses and assets are owned by our subsidiaries. These subsidiaries are formed in various countries pursuant to local law and regulation. In some cases, local regulation could result in the forced liquidation of one or more of these subsidiary companies. If any of our subsidiaries is liquidated before we can transfer its assets, the licenses and assets held by it could revert to the respective government. If this happens, our business could be harmed.

We are subject to various risks of foreign operations.

None of our projects are located in the United States or Canada. We have or are involved in projects in Mongolia and Tajikistan. As such, our business is subject to governmental, political, economic, and other uncertainties in Mongolia and Tajikistan including, by way of example and not in limitation, expropriation of property without fair compensation, changes in energy policies or the personnel administering them, delays caused by the extensive bureaucracy, nationalization, currency fluctuations and devaluations, exchange controls and royalty increases, changes in oil or natural gas pricing policy, renegotiation or nullification of existing concessions and contracts, changes in taxation policies, economic sanctions, restrictions on the repatriation of currency and the imposition of specific drilling obligations and the other risks arising out of foreign governmental sovereignty over the areas in which our operations (or those of our venture partners) are conducted, as well as risks of loss due to civil strife, acts of war, guerrilla activities, insurrections, the actions of national labor unions, terrorism and abduction.

Our operations (and those of our venture partners) may also be adversely affected by laws and policies of the United States affecting foreign trade, taxation and investment. In the event of a dispute arising in connection with our operations (and those of our venture partners) in foreign countries, we may be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of foreign courts or may not be successful in subjecting foreign persons to the jurisdictions of the courts of the United States or enforcing judgments in such other jurisdictions. We may also be hindered or prevented from enforcing our rights with respect to a governmental instrumentality because of the doctrine of sovereign immunity. Accordingly, our exploration, development and production activities (or those of our venture partners) could be substantially affected by factors beyond our control, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business or our company.

- 14 -

Substantially all of our assets are located outside the United States and Canada and three of our directors and all of our officers are nationals and/or residents of countries other than the United States and Canada, with the result that it may be difficult for investors to enforce within the United States or Canada any judgments obtained against us or our officers or directors.

Substantially all of our assets are located outside the United States and Canada. In addition, three of our five directors and all of our officers are nationals and/or residents of countries other than the United States and Canada, and all or a substantial portion of such persons’ assets are located outside of North America. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to enforce within the United States or Canada any judgments obtained against us or our officers or directors, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States and Canada. Consequently, you may be effectively prevented from pursuing remedies against us or them under applicable securities laws.

The unavailability or high cost of drilling rigs, equipment, supplies, personnel and oil field services could adversely affect our ability to execute on a timely basis our exploration and development plans within our budget.

Shortages or the high cost of drilling rigs, equipment, supplies or personnel could delay or adversely affect our development and exploration operations. As the price of oil and natural gas increases, the demand for production equipment and personnel will likely also increase, potentially resulting, at least in the near-term, in shortages of equipment and personnel. In addition, larger producers may be more likely to secure access to such equipment by virtue of offering drilling companies more lucrative terms. If we are unable to acquire access to such resources, or can obtain access only at higher prices, not only would this potentially delay our ability to convert our reserves into cash flow, but could also significantly increase the cost of producing those reserves, thereby negatively impacting anticipated net income.

Our articles of incorporation exculpate our officers and directors from any liability to our company or our stockholders.

Our articles of incorporation contain a provision limiting the liability of our officers and directors for their acts or failures to act, except for acts involving intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law. This limitation on liability may reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against our officers and directors and may discourage or deter our stockholders from suing our officers and directors based upon breaches of their duties to our company.

The loss of certain key management employees could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Exploration and development of resource properties depends, in large part, on the ability to attract and maintain qualified key personnel. Competition for such personnel is intense, and we cannot assure you that we will be able to attract and retain them. Our development now and in the future will depend on the efforts of key management figures, such as Heinz Scholz, the Chairman of our Board of Directors, Dr. Werner Ladwein, Executive Director and President and Chief Executive Officer and Peter-Mark Vogel, Chief Financial Officer. The loss of any of these key people could have a material adverse effect on our business. We do not currently maintain key-man life insurance on any of our key employees.

There are potential conflicts of interest between our company and some of our directors and officers.

Some of our directors and officers are also directors and officers of other companies. Conflicts of interest could arise as a result of this. As of the date of this annual report and to the knowledge of our directors and officers, there are no existing conflicts of interest between our company and any of these individuals but situations may arise where directors and/or officers of our company may be in competition with our company. Any conflicts of interest will be subject to and governed by the law applicable to directors’ and officers’ conflicts of interest. In the event that such a conflict of interest arises at a meeting of our directors, a director who has such a conflict is required to abstain from any discussion and vote for or against the approval of such participation or such terms. As a result, our Board of Directors will be deprived of that person’s experience and expertise, which could adversely affect the outcome.

Risks Associated with Our Business

We have not discovered any oil and gas reserves, and we cannot assure you that we ever will.

We are in the business of exploring for oil and natural gas and the development and exploitation of any oil and gas that we might find in commercially exploitable quantities. Oil and gas exploration involves a high degree of risk that the exploration will not yield positive results. These risks are more acute in the early stages of exploration. We have not discovered any reserves, and we cannot guarantee that we ever will. Even if we succeed in discovering oil or gas reserves, these reserves may not be in commercially viable quantities or locations. Until we discover such reserves, we will not be able to generate any revenues from their exploitation and development. If we are unable to generate revenues from the exploitation and development of oil and gas reserves, we will be forced to change our business or cease operations.

Even if we discover and then develop oil and gas reserves, we may have difficulty distributing our production.

If we are able to produce oil and gas, we will have to make arrangements for storage and distribution of that oil and gas. We would have to rely on local infrastructure and the availability of transportation for storage and shipment of oil and gas products, but any readily available infrastructure and storage and transportation facilities may be insufficient or not available at commercially acceptable terms. This could be particularly problematic to the extent that operations are conducted in remote areas that are difficult to access, such as areas that are distant from shipping or pipeline facilities. Furthermore, weather conditions or natural disasters, actions by companies doing business in one or more of the areas in which we will operate, or labor disputes may impair the distribution of oil and gas. These factors may affect the ability to explore and develop properties and to store and transport oil and gas and may increase our expenses to a degree that has a material adverse effect on operations.

The oil and natural gas industry is highly competitive and there is no assurance that we will be successful in acquiring leases, equipment and personnel.

The oil and natural gas industry is intensely competitive. Although we do not compete with other oil and gas companies for the sale of any oil and gas that we may produce, as there is sufficient demand in the world market for these products, we compete with numerous individuals and companies for desirable oil and natural gas leases, suitable properties for drilling operations and necessary drilling equipment, qualified personnel and access to capital. Many of these individuals and companies with whom we compete have substantially greater technical, financial and operational resources and staff than we have. If we cannot compete for personnel, equipment and oil and gas properties, our business could be harmed.

Prices and markets for oil are unpredictable and tend to fluctuate significantly, which could reduce profitability, growth and the value of our business if we ever begin exploitation of reserves.

Our revenues and earnings, if any, will be highly sensitive to the price of oil and gas. Prices for oil and gas are subject to large fluctuations in response to relatively minor changes in the supply of and demand for oil and gas, market uncertainty and a variety of additional factors beyond our control. These factors include, without limitation, governmental fixing, pegging, controls or any combination of these and other factors, changes in domestic, international, political, social and economic environments, worldwide economic uncertainty, the availability and cost of funds for exploration and production, the actions of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, governmental regulations, political stability in the Middle East and elsewhere, war, or the threat of war, in oil producing regions, the foreign supply of oil, the price of foreign imports and the availability of alternate fuel sources. Significant changes in long-term price outlooks for crude oil or natural gas could, if we ever discover and exploit any reserves of oil or natural gas, have a material adverse effect on revenues as well as the value of our licenses or other assets.

- 16 -

An extended decline in oil prices may affect the commercial viability of our projects and may adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.

The price of crude oil has declined over the last twelve months, a trend that accelerated sharply in the fourth fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2014, primarily due to a less optimistic forecast of worldwide economic growth and increased global oil and gas production. The commercial viability of our exploration and development projects is highly dependent on the price of oil. Prices also affect our ability to borrow money or raise additional capital. We will need to obtain additional financing to fund our operating activities. Our ability to do so may be adversely affected by an extended decline in oil prices. If we are unable to obtain such financing when needed, on commercially reasonable terms, we may be required to cease or curtail our operations, which could have a materially adverse impact on the market price of our stock. An extended decline in oil prices may adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations and our ability to meet our capital expenditure obligations and financial commitments.

Our business will suffer if we cannot obtain or maintain necessary licenses or if there is a defect in the chain of title.

Our operations require that we obtain and maintain licenses and permits from various governmental authorities. Our ability to obtain, maintain, extend or renew such licenses and permits on acceptable terms is subject to extensive regulation and to changes, from time to time, in those regulations. Also, the decision to grant or renew a license or permit is frequently subject to the discretion of the applicable government. If we cannot obtain, maintain, extend or renew these licenses or permits our business could be harmed. An overview of our licenses and their renewal dates can be found on page 57.

Also, although title reviews have been conducted on our existing properties, such reviews do not guarantee or certify an unforeseen defect in the chain of title will not arise to defeat our claim which could result in the loss of title and a reduction of the revenue received, if any.

Amendments to current laws and regulations governing our proposed operations could have a material adverse impact on our proposed business.

We are subject to substantial regulation relating to the exploration for, and the development, upgrading, marketing, pricing, taxation, and transportation of, oil and gas. Amendments to current laws and regulations governing operations and activities of oil and gas exploration and extraction operations could have a material adverse impact on our proposed business. In addition, we cannot assure you that income tax laws, royalty regulations and government incentive programs related to the oil and gas industry generally, or to us specifically will not be changed in a manner which may adversely affect us and cause delays, inability to complete or abandonment of projects.

Penalties we may incur could impair our business.

Failure to comply with government regulations could subject us to civil and criminal penalties, could require us to forfeit property rights or licenses, and may affect the value of our assets. We may also be required to take corrective actions, such as installing additional equipment, which could require substantial capital expenditures. We could also be required to indemnify our employees in connection with any expenses or liabilities that they may incur individually in connection with regulatory action against them. As a result, our future business prospects could deteriorate due to regulatory constraints, and our profitability could be impaired by our obligation to provide such indemnification to our employees.

Our inability to obtain necessary facilities could hamper our operations.

Oil and gas exploration and development activities depend on the availability of equipment, transportation, power and technical support in the particular areas where these activities will be conducted, and our access to these facilities may be limited. To the extent that we conduct our activities in remote areas or in under-developed markets, needed facilities may not be readily available, which could increase our expenses. Demand for such limited equipment and other facilities or access restrictions may affect the availability of such equipment and may delay exploration and development activities. The quality and reliability of necessary facilities may also be unpredictable and we may be required to make efforts to standardize our facilities, which may entail unanticipated costs and delays. Shortages or the unavailability of necessary equipment or other facilities will impair our activities, either by delaying our activities, increasing our costs or otherwise.

Emerging markets are subject to greater risks than more developed markets, including significant legal, economic and political risks.

In recent years Mongolia and Tajikistan have undergone substantial political, economic and social change. As in any emerging market, Mongolia and Tajikistan do not possess as sophisticated and efficient business, regulatory, power and transportation infrastructures as generally exist in more developed market economies. Investors in emerging markets should be aware that these markets are subject to greater risks than more developed markets, including in some cases significant legal, economic and political risks. Investors should also note that emerging economies are subject to rapid change and that the information set out herein may become outdated relatively quickly. We cannot predict what economic, political, legal or other changes may occur in these or other emerging markets, but such changes could adversely affect our ability to carry out exploration and development projects.

Particularly, the legal systems of Mongolia and Tajikistan are less developed than those of more established jurisdictions, which may result in risk such as: the lack of effective legal redress in the courts, whether in respect of a breach of law or regulation, or, in an ownership dispute, a higher degree of discretion on the part of governmental authorities, the delays caused by the extensive bureaucracy, the lack of judicial or administrative guidance on interpreting applicable laws and regulations, inconsistencies or conflicts between and within various laws, regulations, decrees, orders and resolutions, or relative inexperience of the judiciary and courts in such matters.

Our business in Mongolia may be subject to legal risk.

Mongolia transitioned from state socialism and a planned economy to parliamentary democracy and a free market economy. Much progress has been made in this transition, but much remains to be done, particularly with respect to the rule of law. The legal framework in Mongolia is, in many instances, based on recent political reforms or newly enacted legislation, which may not be consistent with long-standing local conventions and customs. As a result, there may be ambiguities, inconsistencies and anomalies in the agreements, licenses and title documents through which we hold our interests in Mongolia, or the underlying legislation upon which those interests are based. Many laws have been enacted, but in many instances they are neither understood nor enforced and may be applied in an inconsistent, arbitrary or unfair manner, while legal remedies may be uncertain, delayed or unavailable. For decades Mongolians have looked to politicians and bureaucrats as the sources of the “law”. This has changed in theory, but often not in practice. With respect to most day-to-day activities in Mongolia, government civil servants interpret, and often effectively make, the law. This situation is gradually changing but at a relatively slow pace. Although we believe that we have taken the legal steps necessary to obtain and hold its property and other interests in Mongolia, there can be no guarantee that such steps will be sufficient to preserve those interests.

Strategic relationships upon which we may rely are subject to change, which may diminish our ability to conduct our operations.

Our ability to discover reserves, to participate in drilling opportunities and to identify and enter into commercial arrangements depends on developing and maintaining close working relationships with industry participants and government officials and on our ability to select and evaluate suitable properties and to consummate transactions in a highly competitive environment. We may not be able to establish these strategic relationships or, if established, we may not be able to maintain them. In addition, the dynamics of our relationships with strategic partners may require us to incur expenses or undertake activities we would not otherwise be inclined to undertake in order to fulfill our obligations to these partners or maintain our relationships. If our strategic relationships are not established or maintained, our business prospects may be limited, which could diminish our ability to conduct our operations.

Environmental risks may adversely affect our business.

All phases of the oil and gas business present environmental risks and hazards and are subject to environmental regulation pursuant to a variety of laws and regulations. Environmental legislation provides for, among other things, restrictions and prohibitions on spills, releases or emissions of various substances produced in association with oil and gas operations. The legislation also requires that wells and facility sites be operated, maintained, abandoned and reclaimed to the satisfaction of applicable regulatory authorities. Compliance with such legislation can require significant expenditures and a breach may result in the imposition of fines and penalties, some of which may be material. The application of environmental laws to our business may cause us to curtail our production or increase the costs of any production, development or exploration activities.

- 18 -

Losses and liabilities arising from uninsured or under-insured hazards could have a material adverse effect on our business.

If we develop and exploit oil and gas reserves, those operations will be subject to the customary hazards of recovering, transporting and processing hydrocarbons, such as fires, explosions, gas leaks, migration of harmful substances, blowouts and oil spills. An accident or error arising from these hazards might result in the loss of equipment or life, as well as injury, property damage or other liability. We have not made a determination as to the amount and type of insurance that we will carry. We cannot assure you that we will obtain insurance on reasonable terms or that any insurance we may obtain will be sufficient to cover any such accident or error. Our operations could be interrupted by natural disasters or other events beyond our control. Losses and liabilities arising from uninsured or under-insured events could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Fluctuations in currency exchange rates could have a material adverse impact on our operations.

All of our current operations are located in foreign countries. The terms and conditions of our major production sharing contracts and licenses are denominated in U.S. dollar, but various agreements, such as contractors, local staff and infrastructure, may be denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollar. Fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar or the local currency may cause a negative impact on costs. These types of fluctuations could have an adverse impact on our operations.

Risks Associated with Our Common Stock

The price of our common stock may become volatile, which could lead to losses by investors and costly securities litigation.

The trading price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate in response to factors such as:

actual or anticipated variations in our operating results;
announcements by us or our competitors of significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures, capital commitments, or other business developments, such as oil or gas discoveries;
adoption of new accounting standards affecting our industry;
additions or departures of key personnel;
sales of our common stock or other securities in the open market;
conditions or trends in our industry; and
other events or factors, many of which are beyond our control.

The stock market has experienced significant price and volume fluctuations, and the market prices of stock in exploration stage companies have been highly volatile. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, securities class action litigation has often been initiated against the company. Litigation initiated against us, whether or not successful, could result in substantial costs and diversion of our management’s attention and resources, which could harm our business and financial condition.

If we obtain additional financing through the sale of additional equity in our company, the issuance of additional shares of common stock will result in dilution to our existing stockholders.

We are authorized to issue 600,000,000 shares of common stock and, as of March 31, 2015, 166,112,792 shares of our common stock were issued and outstanding. In addition, holders of options had, as of that date, the right to acquire up to an additional 12,300,000 number of shares of our common stock. Our Board of Directors has the authority to issue additional shares of common stock up to the authorized capital without the consent of any of our stockholders. Our Board of Directors may choose to issue some or all of such shares to acquire one or more businesses or to provide additional financing in the future. The issuance of any such shares may result in a reduction of the book value or market price of the outstanding shares of our common stock. If we do issue any such additional shares, such issuance will cause a reduction in the proportionate ownership and voting power of all other stockholders. Further, any such issuance may result in a change of control of our company.

- 19 -

Our directors and executive officers own approximately 27.7% of our outstanding common stock.

In the aggregate, our directors and executive officers own approximately 21.9% of our outstanding common stock and they have the right to exercise options that would permit them to acquire, in the aggregate, up to an additional 5.8% of our common stock within the next 60 days. As a result, our directors and executive officers as a group may have a significant effect in delaying, deferring or preventing any potential change in control of our company, be able to strongly influence the actions of our Board of Directors even if they were to cease being our directors and control the outcome of actions brought to our stockholders for approval. Such a high level of ownership may adversely affect the voting and other rights of other stockholders.

We do not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.

We do not intend to declare dividends for the foreseeable future, as we anticipate that we will reinvest any future earnings in the development and growth of our business. Therefore, investors will not receive any funds unless they sell their common stock, and stockholders may be unable to sell their shares on favorable terms or at all. We cannot assure you of a positive return on investment or that you will not lose the entire amount of your investment in our common stock.

Our stock is a penny stock. Trading of our stock may be restricted by the Securities and Exchange Commission’s penny stock regulations which may limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock.

Our stock is a penny stock. The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which generally defines “penny stock” to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) of less than USD 5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than USD 5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our securities are covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors”. The term “accredited investor” refers generally to institutions with assets in excess of USD 5,000,000 or individuals with a net worth in excess of USD 1,000,000 or annual income exceeding USD 200,000 or USD 300,000 jointly with their spouse. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the Securities and Exchange Commission which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer’s confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities. We believe that the penny stock rules discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of our common stock.

The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority sales practice requirements may also limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock.

In addition to the “penny stock” rules described above, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or “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. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. The FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for shares of our common stock.

There are no pending legal proceedings to which our company or any of our subsidiaries is a party or of which any of our properties, or the properties of any of our subsidiaries, is the subject. In addition, we do not know of any such proceedings contemplated by any governmental authorities.

Litigation in Chile

Manas Management Services Ltd., our wholly-owned Bahamian subsidiary, owned 99% of Manas Energia Chile Limitada which in turn, was one of the parties to a farm-out agreement in respect of a project located in Chile.

During the initial phase of applying for our Chilean Exploration license, we formed a joint bidding group with Improved Petroleum Recovery Tranquillo Chile (commonly referred to as “IPR”) and a start-up company called Energy Focus Limitada (“Energy Focus”). Each had a one-third interest. Of its own accord, Energy Focus left the bidding group. The three parties signed a side letter which provided that Energy Focus would have an option to rejoin the bidding group under certain conditions.

Even though Energy Focus had been asked many times to join the group by contributing its prorated share of capital, it failed to do so. Despite this, Energy Focus claims that it is entitled to participate in the consortium at any future time, not just under certain conditions. We and IPR believe that Energy Focus no longer has any right to join the bidding group because the conditions specified in the side letter did not occur, and can no longer occur.

Energy Focus commenced litigation for specific performance and damages in an unspecified amount in Santiago de Chile, claiming interest in the Tranquilo Block from our company and IPR, and our respective subsidiaries. Our company, IPR and our respective legal counsel are of the view that the Energy Focus’ claim is without merit, that it was brought in the wrong jurisdiction and that Energy Focus failed to properly serve the parties. The trial courts of Santiago have dismissed the case. Energy Focus took an appeal, which was also dismissed. Energy Focus took a second appeal and that too was also dismissed. The time to bring a further appeal has lapsed and our legal advisors inform us that the matter is now finally concluded in favor of our company.

- 21 -

In January 2010, we signed an agreement to transfer our interest in this Chilean project and on April 14, 2011, we transferred all our rights, interests and obligations in the project to Methanex and Wintershall. The Chilean Minister of Energy authorized this transfer on April 28, 2011. The cash payment for the transfer of the Company’s interest in the Chilean project of USD 72,000 was received on September 23, 2011 from the new owners.

Stock Option Plans

2007 Omnibus Stock Option Plan

In April 2007, our Board of Directors adopted and our shareholders approved our 2007 Omnibus Stock Option Plan. On October 21, 2008 our Board of Directors approved a modification to our 2007 Omnibus Stock Option Plan and, on October 31, 2008, our shareholders approved the modified 2007 Omnibus Stock Option Plan. Under the 2007 Omnibus Stock Option Plan, as amended, we may grant our qualified directors, officers, employees, consultants and advisors stock options (which may be designated as nonqualified stock options or incentive stock options), stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, performance awards or other forms of stock-based incentive awards, up to a maximum of 20,000,000 shares.

Our Board of Directors administers the 2007 Omnibus Stock Option Plan. Members of the Board of Directors receive no additional compensation for their services in connection with the administration of the Stock Option Plan. They have full discretion and exclusive power to:

select who will participate in our 2007 Omnibus Stock Option Plan and what awards they will be granted;
determine the time at which awards shall be granted and any terms and conditions, within the limits of the 2007 Omnibus Stock Option Plan, of such awards; and
resolve all questions relating to the administration of the 2007 Omnibus Stock Option Plan.

The Board of Directors may grant nonqualified stock options or incentive stock options that are evidenced by stock option agreements. The exercise price of the common stock subject to a non-qualified stock option or an incentive stock option may be paid in cash or, at the discretion of our Board of Directors, by a promissory note, by the tender of common stock or through a combination thereof. The Board of Directors may provide for the exercise of options in installments and upon such terms, conditions and restrictions as it may determine.

A non-qualified stock option is a right to purchase a specific number of shares of common stock during such time as the Board of Directors may determine, not to exceed 10 years, at a price determined by the Board of Directors that, unless deemed otherwise by the Board of Directors, is not less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date the Board grants the non-qualified stock option.

An incentive stock option is an option that meets the requirements of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. No incentive stock option may be granted under our 2007 Omnibus Stock Option Plan to an employee who owns more than 10% of our outstanding voting stock unless the option price is at least 110% of the fair market value of the common stock at the date of grant and the incentive stock option is not exercisable more than five years after our Board grants it. In the case of a grantee that does not own 10% or more of our common stock, no incentive stock option may be exercisable more than 10 years after the date our Board grants it and its exercise price may not be less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date our Board grants it. Our Board may not grant an employee an incentive stock option that first becomes exercisable during a calendar year for the purchase of common stock with an aggregate fair market value (determined as of the date of grant of each incentive stock option) in excess of USD 100,000. An incentive stock option (or any installment thereof) counts against the annual limitation only in the year it first becomes exercisable.

A stock appreciation right is a right granted to receive, upon surrender of the right, but without payment, an amount payable in cash. The amount payable with respect to each stock appreciation right shall be based on the excess, if any, of the fair market value of a share of common stock on the exercise date over the exercise price of the stock appreciation right, which will not be less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date the stock appreciation right is granted. In the case of a stock appreciation right granted in tandem with an incentive stock option to an employee who holds at least ten percent of our common stock, the exercise price shall not be less than 110% of the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date our Board grants the stock appreciation right.

Restricted Stock is common stock that is issued at a price determined by the Board of Directors, which price per share may not be less than the par value of the common stock, and is subject to restrictions on transfer and/or such other restrictions on incidents of ownership as the Board of Directors may determine.

- 24 -

A performance award granted under our 2007 Omnibus Stock Option Plan may be denominated or payable to the recipient in cash, common stock (including, without limitation, Restricted Stock), other securities or other awards. A performance award shall confer on the recipient the right to receive payments, in whole or in part, upon the achievement of such performance goals during such performance periods as our Board of Directors shall establish. Subject to the terms of our 2007 Omnibus Stock Option Plan and any applicable award agreement, the performance goals to be achieved during any performance period, the length of any performance period, the amount of any performance award and the amount of any payment or transfer to be made pursuant to that performance award shall be determined by our Board of Directors.

Our Board of Directors may grant awards under the 2007 Omnibus Stock Option Plan that provide the recipient with the right to purchase common stock or that are valued by reference to the fair market value of the common stock (including, but not limited to, phantom securities or dividend equivalents). Such awards shall be in a form determined by our Board of Directors, as long as such awards are not inconsistent with the terms and purposes of our 2007 Omnibus Stock Option Plan. Our Board of Directors determines the price of any such award and may accept any lawful consideration.

Our Board of Directors may at any time amend, suspend or terminate our 2007 Omnibus Stock Option Plan as long as it does not change any awards previously granted, increase the aggregate number of shares of the common stock with respect to which it may grant awards or change the class of persons eligible to receive awards.

In the event a change in control occurs, then, notwithstanding any provision of our 2007 Omnibus Stock Option Plan or of any provisions of any award agreement to the contrary, all awards that have not expired and which are then held shall become fully and immediately vested and exercisable and may be exercised for the remaining term of such awards.

No awards may be granted under the Stock Option Plan on or after April 10, 2017, but Awards granted prior to such date may be exercised in accordance with their terms. Because our shares of common stock are listed on the Canadian TSX Venture Exchange, certain provisions mandated by the policies of that stock exchange restrict our ability to make certain grants to persons in specified categories.

Amended 2011 Stock Option Plan

On September 22, 2011, our Board of Directors adopted and our shareholders approved our 2011 Stock Option Plan. The purpose of our 2011 Stock Option Plan is to advance the interests of our company by encouraging our directors, officers, employees and consultants to acquire shares of our common stock, thereby increasing their proprietary interest in our company, encouraging them to remain associated with our company and furnishing them with additional incentive in their efforts on behalf of our company in the conduct of their affairs.

On February 20, 2014 our shareholders approved a resolution to amend our 2011 stock option plan to change it from a “rolling” plan to a “fixed” plan. As a rolling plan, we were permitted to issue such number of stock options as was equal, in the aggregate to a maximum of ten percent (10%) of the number of common shares that were issued and outstanding at the time of each grant. As amended, our 2011 stock option plan permits the issuance of up to an aggregate of 34,500,000 stock options (including all outstanding stock options granted under prior stock option plans), regardless of how many shares of our common stock are issued and outstanding at the time of each grant. The aggregate number of shares of our common stock to be delivered upon the exercise of stock options granted under our Amended 2011 Stock Option Plan cannot exceed the maximum number of shares of our common stock permitted under the rules of any stock exchange on which the shares of our common stock are then listed or other regulatory body having jurisdiction. If any stock option granted under our Amended 2011 Stock Option Plan expires or terminates without having been exercised in full, the unpurchased shares of our common stock will again be available for the purpose of our Amended 2011 Stock Option Plan.

- 25 -

Our Amended 2011 Stock Option Plan is to be administered by our Board of Directors or by a special committee of directors appointed by our Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors, or if appointed our special committee of directors, may designate bona fide directors, officers, employees or consultants of our company or a subsidiary of our company, or a company that is wholly owned by a bona fide director, officer, employee or consultant of our company or a subsidiary of our company to whom stock options to purchase shares of our common stock may be granted and the number of shares of our common stock to be optioned to each, subject to the terms of our Amended 2011 Stock Option Plan. The number of shares of our common stock subject to stock options granted to an optionee, other than a consultant or an employee conducting investor relations activities, must be determined by our Board of Directors or by a special committee of our Board of Directors, if one has been appointed, but no optionee, where our company is listed on any stock exchange, must be granted stock options which cover a number of shares of our common stock which exceed the maximum number of shares permitted under any stock exchange on which shares of our common stock are then listed or other regulatory body having jurisdiction, which maximum number of shares is presently an amount equal to 5% of the then issued and outstanding shares of our common stock (on a non-diluted basis) in any 12 month period unless our company receives disinterested shareholder approval.

The maximum number of shares of our common stock subject to stock options that may be granted to an optionee who is a consultant is presently limited to an amount equal to 2% of the then issued and outstanding shares of our common stock (on a non-diluted basis) in any 12 month period. The maximum number of shares of our common stock subject to stock options that may be granted to all persons in aggregate who are employed to perform investor relations activities is presently limited to an amount equal to 2% of the then issued and outstanding shares of our common stock (on a non-diluted basis) in any 12 month period and such stock options must vest in stages over a 12 month period with no more than 1/4 of the stock options vesting in any 3 month period. Other than the foregoing, our Board of Directors or our special committee of the Board of Directors, if one has been appointed, subject to the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange, may determine and impose terms upon which each stock option become vested.

The exercise price of any stock options granted under our Amended 2011 Stock Option Plan must be determined by our Board of Directors or a special committee of our Board of Directors, if one is appointed, but may not be less than the price permitted by any stock exchange on which shares of our common stock are then listed or other regulatory body having jurisdiction, which minimum exercise price is currently not less than the discounted market price as defined by the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange. In addition, the minimum exercise price of stock options granted to the optionees who are subject to tax in the United States must not be less than the fair market value of the shares covered by such stock options on the date the stock options are granted. The minimum exercise price of shares of our common stock covered by the stock options cannot be established unless the stock options are allocated to a particular optionee.

The exercise of any stock option is contingent upon our receipt of a written notice of exercise, accompanied by cash payment, certified cheque or bank draft for the full purchase price of shares of our common stock with respect to which the stock option is exercised.

The term of any stock options granted under our Amended 2011 stock option plan must be determined by our Board of Directors, or by a special committee of our Board of Directors, if one is appointed, at the time of grant but, subject to earlier termination in the event of cessation as a director, officer, employee or consultant or in the event of death.

The term of any stock options granted under our 2011 stock option plan may not exceed the maximum period permitted by any stock exchange on which shares of our common stock are then listed or other regulatory body having jurisdiction, which maximum period is presently 10 years from the date of grant.

If an optionee who is a director, officer employee or consultant of our company or a subsidiary of our company ceases to act in that capacity (for a reason other than death), the optionee may, but only within 90 days (30 days for an optionee who is engaged in investor relations activities on behalf of our company) after ceasing to be a director, officer, employee or consultant, exercise his stock options to the extent he was entitled to exercise them at the date of such cessation.

- 26 -

In the event of the death of an optionee, the stock options previously granted to him are exercisable only within 12 months next succeeding such death and then only by the person or persons to whom the optionee’s rights under the stock options pass by the optionee’s will or the laws of descent and distribution and if and to the extent that he was entitled to exercise the stock options at the date of his death.

The stock options are not transferable or assignable unless specifically provided in our Amended 2011 Stock Option Plan. During the lifetime of an optionee, the stock options may only be exercised by the optionee.

The shares of our common stock will not be issued with respect to a stock option unless the exercise of such stock option and the issuance and delivery of such shares comply with applicable securities laws and the rules of any applicable stock exchange and stock quotation system. The optionee must pay us promptly upon exercise of a stock option or, if later, the date that the amount of such obligations becomes determinable, all applicable federal, state, local and foreign withholding taxes resulting upon exercise of a stock option or otherwise related to a stock option or shares of our common stock acquired in connection with a stock option.

Our Board of Directors, or a special committee of our Board of Directors, if one has been appointed, may at any time terminate our Amended 2011 Stock Option Plan. Our Board of Directors may, subject to such approvals as may be required under the rules of any stock exchange on which our common stock is then listed or other regulatory body having jurisdiction, also at any time may amend or revise the terms of our Amended 2011 stock option plan, provided that no such amendment or revision alters the terms of any stock options theretofore granted under our Amended 2011Stock Option Plan.

ITEM 7 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Our management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations provides a narrative about our financial performance and condition that should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in this annual report beginning at page 35 below. This discussion contains forward looking statements reflecting our current expectations and estimates and assumptions about events and trends that may affect our future operating results or financial position. Our actual results and the timing of certain events could differ materially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including, but not limited to, those set forth in the sections of this annual report titled “Risk Factors” beginning at page 14 above and “Forward-Looking Statements” beginning at page 4 above.

Overview of business operations

We are in the business of exploring for and producing oil and gas, primarily in Central and East Asia. If we discover sufficient reserves of oil or gas, we intend to exploit them. Although we are currently focused primarily on projects located in certain geographic regions, we remain open to attractive opportunities in other areas. Since the acquisition of 65% of the equity in EPA.at, we have a 37.32% working interest in ten oil fields located in the Fergana basin in Tajikistan.

We carry out our operations both directly and through participation in ventures with other oil and gas companies. We are actively involved in projects in Mongolia and Tajikistan.

We have no operating income yet and, as a result, depend upon funding from various sources to continue operations and to implement our growth strategy.

Results of Operations

Net income/net loss

Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2014, was USD 6,562,089 compared to a net loss of USD 10,961,113 for the same period in 2013. This decrease of USD 4,399,024 was mainly due to a change in fair value in investment in associate.

Operating expenses

Operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2014, increased to USD 6,898,661 from USD 6,542,669 reported for the same period in 2013. This increase of 5% in our total operating expenses is mainly due to an increase in exploration activities.

Personnel costs

For the year ended December 31, 2014, personnel costs decreased to USD 2,075,805 from USD 2,301,938 for the same period in 2013. This decrease of 10% is mainly attributable to lower expenses related to equity awards under the stock compensation and stock option plans as well as a continued wind down of activity in Mongolia.

Exploration costs

For the year ended December 31, 2014, we incurred exploration costs of USD 1,813,475 as compared to USD 1,146,948 for the same period in 2013. This is an increase of 58% and is primarily related to increased exploration activity at our project in Tajikistan.

Consulting fees

For the year ended December 31, 2014, we incurred consulting fees of USD 1,516,416 as compared to consulting fees of USD 1,838,909 for the same period in 2013. This is a decrease of 18% and is due to lower expenses related to investor relation activities.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, we incurred expenses of USD 57,151 related to equity-based awards to non-employees, as compared to USD 30,540 in the same period in 2013. For the year ended period ended December 31, 2014, we incurred expenses of USD 182,854 related to public and investor relations, as compared to USD 415,804 in the same period in 2013, representing a reduction of 56%. For the year ended period ended December 31, 2014, we incurred expenses of USD 1,276,411 related to consulting costs, as compared to USD 1,392,565 in the same period in 2013. These costs are primarily related to our projects in Tajikistan and Mongolia, as well as regulatory, tax and legal fees.

Administrative costs

For the year ended period ended December 31, 2014, we recorded administrative costs of USD 1,429,650 compared to USD 1,201,888 for the same period in 2013. This increase of 19% is attributable to an increase in audit fees and computer system costs.

Non-operating income/expense

For the year ended December 31, 2014, we recorded a non-operating gain of USD 344,798 compared to a non-operating loss of USD 4,283,426 for the same period in 2013. This increase of USD 4,628,224 is mainly attributable to a change in the value of our investment in Petromanas.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, we recorded an increase in fair value of investment in associate (Petromanas) of USD 665,378 compared to a decrease in fair value of investment in associate of USD 4,247,067 for the same period in 2013.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash balance as of December 31, 2014 was USD 1,369,778. Shareholders’ equity as of December 31, 2014 was USD 13,688,596. As of December 31, 2014, total current assets were USD 2,570,343 and total current liabilities were USD 1,312,297, resulting in net working capital of USD 1,257,565. Of our cash balance as of December 31, 2014, USD 1,369,778 was on bank accounts of MNP Petroleum Corp. and its subsidiaries. Since our company considers foreign subsidiaries to be permanently invested, taxes will be due in the event of repatriation.

During the period of March 3, 2014 to March 11, 2014, DWM Petroleum sold 42,000,000 shares of Petromanas at an average price of CAD 0.20 per common share for gross proceeds of CAD 8,450,000 (USD 7,637,955) on the open market. During the period November 7, 2014 to November 21, 2014, DWM Petroleum sold an additional 4,000,000 shares of Petromanas at an average price of CAD 0.10 per common share for gross proceeds of CAD 370,000 (USD 323,961) on the open market. At December 31, 2014, DWM Petroleum owned 4,000,000 shares of Petromanas, representing approximately 0.6% of the issued shares of Petromanas.

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities of USD 6,181,869 for the year ended December 31, 2014 changed from net cash used of USD 5,124,010 for the same period in 2013.

Net cash provided by investing activities of USD 5,308,611 for the year ended December 31, 2014 changed from net cash provided by investing activities of USD 5,695,733 for the same period in 2013. This decrease of USD 387,122 in cash provided by investing activities is attributable to the capitalization of exploration costs of USD 514,368 related to our project in Tajikistan and the capitalization of a further USD 2,000,000 paid in relation to the Kavsar transaction.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities of USD 551,018 for the year ended December 31, 2014 changed from net cash used in financing activities of USD 377,125 for the same period in 2013.

Cash Requirements

The following table outlines the estimated cash requirements for our operations for the next 12 months (in USD):

*Expenses*		*Amount*
Corporate		2,995,995
Kyrgyzstan		28,800¹
Mongolia		98,404²
Tajikistan - Exploration		1,253,077³
Tajikistan - PS		94,870
Business Development		120,000
Total		4,591,146

(1)	The information presented in the table above includes the costs related to our normal operational activities only.
(2)	The information presented in the table above includes the costs related to our normal operational activities only. It does not include such financial commitments as discussed in Item 1 as we are subject to certain expenditures and commitments in order to maintain our licenses which are currently pending re-negotiations.
(3)	The information presented in the table above includes the costs related to our normal operational activities and development of infrastructure but does not include any drilling activity. It does not include such financial commitments discussed in Item 1 because we assume to farm-out and be carried.

Our monthly burn rate amounts to approximately USD 382,596 (corporate USD 249,666, ventures USD 132,929) Considering our net working capital and our 4 million shares in Petromanas Energy Inc., we are not able to fund our planned operations for the next twelve months.

These matters raise substantial doubt about the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

In order to continue to fund operations for the next twelve months and implement the geological work program for our projects in Central Asia as well as to finance continuing operations, the Group will require further funds. We expect these funds will be raised through additional equity and/or debt financing through the expected Stichting VB Vagobel (“Vagobel”) transaction disclosed to the market on September 9, 2014, the terms of which are outlined below, or through other transactions which are currently under negotiations.

On November 29, 2014, we entered into a private placement agreement with Vagobel, pursuant to which we agreed to sell, and Vagobel agreed to purchase, the following securities of our company:
(a)	43,000,000 shares of our common stock (the “Initial Shares”) at a purchase price of US$0.15 per Initial Share for an aggregate purchase price of US$6,450,000; and
(b)	for no additional consideration, two non-transferable common share purchase warrants. The first of these non- transferable common share purchase warrants (the “Initial Warrant”) will provide that Vagobel must purchase, on the fifth business day (the “Warrant Exercise Date”) following the date upon which our stockholders approve the private placement with Vagobel, an additional 23,717,633 shares of our common stock (the “Initial Warrant Shares”) at an exercise price of US$0.20 per Initial Warrant Share for aggregate proceeds of US$4,743,527. The second of these non-transferable common share purchase warrants (the “Second Warrant”) will provide that Vagobel must purchase, on the Warrant Exercise Date, an additional 5,771,130 shares of our common stock (the “Second Warrant Shares”) at an exercise price of US$0.15 per Second Warrant Share for aggregate proceeds of US$865,669;

On the Warrant Exercise Date:
(a)	one non-transferable convertible debenture (the “First Debenture”) in the amount of US$25,000,000;
(b)	one non-transferable common share purchase warrant (the “Interest Warrant”) pursuant to which Vagobel must purchase, on each interest payment date such number of shares of our common stock (each an “Interest Warrant Share”) as is equal to the amount of interest payable in Interest Warrant Shares (as contemplated by the terms of each of the First Debenture and the Second Debenture (as defined below)) on that interest payment date, at an exercise price of US$0.70 per Interest Warrant Share; and
On the four-month anniversary of the stockholder approval of the private placement, one non-transferable convertible debenture (the “Second Debenture”) in the principal amount of US$25,000,000.

- 31 -

The purchase price for the First Debenture and the Interest Warrant will be US$25,000,000 and the purchase price for the Second Debenture will be US$25,000,000.

Each of the First Debenture and the Second Debenture (the “Debentures”) will have a maturity date of five years from the date of issuance.

We must pay all or any part of the principal amounts outstanding under the Debentures by way of conversions into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of US$0.70 per share. At any time after the date of issuance and until the maturity date, Vagobel will be entitled to convert some or all of the outstanding principal amounts under the Debentures into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of US$0.70 per share. All principal that remains outstanding on the maturity date will be automatically converted on the maturity date.

Outstanding principal under the Debentures will bear interest at the rate of 3% per annum, with interest payable annually within 30 days after each anniversary of issuance of the Debentures. 2% of the interest is to be paid through exercise of the Interest Warrant providing for the purchase of up to an aggregate of up to 7,142,857 Interest Warrant Shares at an exercise price of US$0.70 per Interest Warrant Share for a period coterminous with the Debentures and the residual of 1% is to be paid in cash. The right to purchase Interest Warrant Shares will vest only as and when interest becomes payable under the Debentures and the number of such vested Interest Warrant Shares will be determined by dividing the amount of interest accrued and unpaid on each anniversary of issuance of the Debentures by an exercise price of US$0.70 per Interest Warrant Share.

If we are not able to raise the required funds, we would consider farming-out projects in order to reduce our financial commitments. If the Company is unable to obtain such funding, or complete farming-out projects, the Company will not be able to continue its business. Any additional equity financing may be dilutive to shareholders, and debt financing, if available, will increase expenses and may involve restrictive covenants. The Company will be required to raise additional capital on terms which are uncertain, especially under the current capital market conditions. Under these circumstances, if the Company is unable to obtain capital or is required to raise it on undesirable terms, it may have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition.

Application of Critical Accounting Policies

Our financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management’s application of accounting policies. We believe that understanding the basis and nature of the estimates and assumptions involved with the following aspects of our financial statements is critical to an understanding of our financial statements.

We base our assumptions and estimates on historical experience and other sources that we believe to be reasonable at the time. Actual results may vary from our estimates due to changes in circumstances, weather, politics, global economics, mechanical problems, general business conditions and other factors. Our significant estimates are related to the going concern, the valuation of options and oil and gas properties.

There are accounting policies that we believe are significant to the presentation of our financial statements. The most significant of these are described below.

Exploration and evaluation costs

Exploration costs, including geological and geophysical costs, the costs of carrying and retaining unproved properties and exploratory dry hole drilling costs, are expensed.

Exploratory drilling costs are capitalized when incurred pending the determination of whether a well has found proved reserves. If a well is determined to be successful, the capitalized drilling costs will be reclassified as part of the cost of the well. If a well is determined to be unsuccessful, the capitalized drilling costs will be charged to expense in the period the determination is made.

- 32 -

Stock-based Compensation

We account for all of our stock-based payments and awards applying the fair value method.

Stock-based payments to non-employees are measured at the fair value of the consideration received, or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, or liabilities incurred, whichever is more reliably measurable. The fair value of stock-based payments to non-employees is periodically re-measured until the counterparty performance is complete, and any change therein is recognized over the vesting period of the award and in the same manner as if we had paid cash instead of paying with or using equity based instruments. The costs of the stock-based payments to non-employees that are fully vested and non-forfeitable as at the grant date is measured and recognized at that date, unless there is a contractual term for services in which case such compensation would be amortized over the contractual term. For restricted share grants, we calculate the fair value applying a prorated discount of 12% on the share price at the grant date over the restriction period.

We account for the granting of share purchase options to employees using the fair value method whereby all awards to employees will be recorded at fair value on the date of the grant. The fair value of all share purchase options are expensed over their vesting period with a corresponding increase to additional paid-in capital. Upon exercise of share purchase options, the consideration paid by the option holder, together with the amount previously recognized in additional capital surplus, is recorded as an increase to share capital.

We use the Black-Scholes option valuation model to calculate the fair value of share purchase options at the date of the grant. Option pricing models require the input of highly subjective assumptions.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Board of Directors and Stockholders
MNP Petroleum Corporation

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of MNP Petroleum Corporation as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2014. 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 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 audits 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.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of MNP Petroleum Corporation at December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2014, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

1. CORPORATE INFORMATION

The consolidated financial statements comprise MNP Petroleum Corporation (“MNP” or the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (collectively, “the Group”) for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.

The Company is in the business of exploring for oil and gas, primarily in Central and East Asia. If the Company discovers sufficient reserves of oil or gas, it intends to exploit them. The Company has not commenced planned principal operations and therefore has not realized any revenues to date. The Company carries out its operations both directly and through participation in ventures with other oil and gas companies. It is actively involved in exploration projects in Tajikistan and Mongolia. In addition, the Company recently purchased producing oilfields in Tajikistan. As the Company currently depends upon funding from various sources to continue operations and to implement its growth strategy, the Company’s activities are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including failing to secure additional funding to operationalize the Company’s licenses.

The Company, formerly known as Express Systems Corporation, was incorporated in the State of Nevada on July 9, 1998.

On April 10, 2007, the Company completed the Exchange Transaction whereby it acquired its then sole subsidiary DWM Petroleum AG, Baar (“DWM Petroleum”) pursuant to an exchange agreement signed in November 2006 whereby 100% of the shares of DWM Petroleum were exchanged for 80,000,000 common shares of the Company. As part of the closing of this exchange transaction, the Company issued 800,000 shares as finders’ fees at the closing price of USD 3.20.

The acquisition of DWM Petroleum was accounted for as a merger of a private operating company into a non-operating public shell. Consequently, the Company is the continuing legal registrant for regulatory purposes and DWM Petroleum is treated as the continuing accounting acquirer for accounting and reporting purposes. The assets and liabilities of DWM Petroleum remained at historic cost. Under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, in transactions involving the merger of a private operating company into a non-operating public shell, the transaction is equivalent to the issuance of stock by DWM Petroleum for the net monetary assets of the Company, accompanied by a recapitalization. The accounting is identical to a reverse acquisition, except that no goodwill or other intangibles are recorded.

The Company has a focused strategy on exploration and developing oil and gas resources in Central Asia and East Asia (Tajikistan and Mongolia).

2. GOING CONCERN

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that the Group will continue as a going concern. The Group has no operating income and therefore will remain dependent upon continued funding from its shareholders or other sources. Our cash balance as of December 31, 2014 was USD 1,578,399, of which USD 208,621 has been restricted leaving a balance of USD 1,369,778. Additionally, the Group has 4,000,000 shares in PMI valuing the investment at USD 206,382.

Based on our expected monthly burn rate of USD 382,596 on basic operational activities, we estimate that we have sufficient working capital to fund operations for four months.

On November 29, 2014, we entered into a private placement agreement with Vagobel, pursuant to which we agreed to sell, and Vagobel agreed to purchase, the following securities of our company:
(a)	43,000,000 shares of our common stock (the “Initial Shares”) at a purchase price of US$0.15 per Initial Share for an aggregate purchase price of US$6,450,000; and
(b)	for no additional consideration, two non-transferable common share purchase warrants. The first of these non- transferable common share purchase warrants (the “Initial Warrant”) will provide that Vagobel must purchase, on the fifth business day (the “Warrant Exercise Date”) following the date upon which our stockholders approve the private placement with Vagobel, an additional 23,717,633 shares of our common stock (the “Initial Warrant Shares”) at an exercise price of US$0.20 per Initial Warrant Share for aggregate proceeds of US$4,743,527. The second of these non-transferable common share purchase warrants (the “Second Warrant”) will provide that Vagobel must purchase, on the Warrant Exercise Date, an additional 5,771,130 shares of our common stock (the “Second Warrant Shares”) at an exercise price of US$0.15 per Second Warrant Share for aggregate proceeds of US$865,669;
On the Warrant Exercise Date:

(a)	one non-transferable convertible debenture (the “First Debenture”) in the amount of US$25,000,000;
(b)	one non-transferable common share purchase warrant (the “Interest Warrant”) pursuant to which Vagobel must purchase, on each interest payment date such number of shares of our common stock (each an “Interest Warrant Share”) as is equal to the amount of interest payable in Interest Warrant Shares (as contemplated by the terms of each of the First Debenture and the Second Debenture (as defined below)) on that interest payment date, at an exercise price of US$0.70 per Interest Warrant Share; and
On the four-month anniversary of the stockholder approval of the private placement, one non-transferable convertible debenture (the “Second Debenture”) in the principal amount of US$25,000,000.

The purchase price for the First Debenture and the Interest Warrant will be US$25,000,000 and the purchase price for the Second Debenture will be US$25,000,000.

Each of the First Debenture and the Second Debenture (the “Debentures”) will have a maturity date of five years from the date of issuance.

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosures, if any, of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Successful Efforts Method of Accounting

The Company uses the successful efforts method of accounting for oil and natural gas producing activities. Under this method, acquisition costs for proved and unproved properties are capitalized when incurred. Exploration costs, including geological and geophysical costs, the costs of carrying and retaining unproved properties and exploratory dry hole drilling costs, are expensed. Development costs, including the costs to drill and equip development wells and successful exploratory drilling costs to locate proved reserves, are capitalized. Upon sale or retirement of a proved property, the cost and accumulated depreciation, depletion and amortization are eliminated from property accounts and the resultant gain or loss is recognized.

Development costs of proved oil and natural gas properties, including estimated dismantlement, restoration, abandonment costs and acquisition costs, are depreciated and depleted on a well by well basis by the units-of-production method using estimated proved developed reserves.

We perform quarterly assessments of unproved oil properties for impairment on a field basis, and recognize a loss at the time of impairment by recording an expense to “exploration costs”. In determining whether an unproved property is impaired we consider numerous factors including, but not limited to, dry holes drilled, current exploration plans, favorable or unfavorable exploratory activity on adjacent areas and our geologists' evaluation.

Scope and methods of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include MNP Petroleum Corporation and all companies which MNP Petroleum Corporation directly or indirectly controls (over 50% of voting interest). The companies included in the consolidation are listed in Note 11.

Investments in which the Company exercises significant influence, but not control (generally 20% to 50% ownership) are accounted for using the equity method. The Group’s share of earnings or losses is included in consolidated net loss and the Group’s share of the net assets is included in long-term assets. Investments where the Company holds less than 50% and has no ability to exercise significant influence are accounted for using the cost method, unless we have elected the fair value option in accordance with ASC 820.

Principles of consolidation

The annual closing date of the individual financial statements is December 31, with all cost and income items being reported in the period to which they relate. Intercompany income and expenses, including unrealized gross profits from internal Group transactions and intercompany receivables, payables and loans, have been eliminated. Companies acquired or divested in the course of the year are included in the consolidated financial statements as of the date of purchase respectively up to the date of sale.

Foreign currency translation

The consolidated financial statements of the Group are presented in US dollars (USD). The parent Company’s functional currency is the US dollar. Transactions in currencies other than the book currency are recorded using the appropriate exchange rate at the time of the transaction.

The functional currency for all of our consolidated subsidiaries is US dollar. For our subsidiary in Tajikistan that keeps its books in a currency other than US dollars, the company re-measures the Tajik financials as follows: Monetary assets and liabilities are translated using the balance sheet period-end date, while for the non-monetary assets and liabilities the historical rate is used. Expenses are translated using the average rate for the reporting period, except for depreciation and amortization, where the historical rate of the related asset or liability applies. Foreign currency translation gains and losses are reported on the statement of operations.

Concentrations of risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are primarily cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are maintained with several financial institutions. Deposits held with banks may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits. Generally these deposits may be redeemed upon demand. Cash and cash equivalents are subject to currency exchange rate fluctuations.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less (petty cash, bank balances and fiduciary deposits).

Investment in associate measured at fair value

For periods ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, we classified our investment in associates as Level 1 and account for it in accordance with ASC 320 Investments - Debt and Equity Securities. We classified the investment in associates as trading securities and report it at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in earnings.

Accounts receivable and prepaid expenses

This position includes receivables from third parties, value added taxes, withholding taxes, loans to employees, prepaid expenses for goods and services not yet received as well as income from the current year that will not be received until the following year. The carrying amount of these assets approximates their fair value. There is currently no reserve for bad debt.

Tangible fixed assets, computer software and depreciation

Tangible fixed assets (office equipment, vehicles and furniture) and computer software are recorded at cost and are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the following estimated useful lives:

Office equipment	3 - 5 years
Operating equipment	3 - 5 years
Vehicles	5 - 6 years
Leasehold improvements	5 years
Computer software	2 years

Tangible fixed assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. The carrying value of a long-lived asset or asset group is considered to be impaired when the undiscounted expected cash flows from the asset or asset group are less than its carrying amount. In that event, an impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds its fair value. Fair value is determined based on quoted market prices, where available, or is estimated as the present value of the expected future cash flows from the asset or asset group discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved.

Leased assets

Rentals payable under operating leases are charged to the income statement on a straight line basis.

Current liabilities

Current liabilities include current or renewable liabilities due within a maximum period of one year. Current liabilities are carried at their nominal value, which approximates fair market value.

Fair value of financial instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, investment in Petromanas, transaction prepayment, accounts payable and refundable deposits. The fair value of these financial instruments approximate their carrying value due to the short maturities of these instruments, unless otherwise noted.

Non-current liabilities

Non-current liabilities include all known liabilities as per year end, which can reliably be quantified with a due date of at least one year after the date of the balance sheet.

Income taxes

Taxes on income are accrued in the same period as the revenues and expenses to which they relate.

Deferred taxes are calculated on the temporary differences that arise between the tax base of an asset or liability and its carrying value in the balance sheet of the Group companies prepared for consolidation purposes, with the exception of temporary differences arising on investments in foreign subsidiaries where the Group has plans to permanently reinvest profits into the foreign subsidiaries.

Deferred tax assets on tax loss carry-forwards are only recognized to the extent that it is more likely than not, that future profits will be available and the tax loss carry-forward can be utilized.

Changes to tax laws or tax rates enacted at the balance sheet date are taken into account in the determination of the applicable tax rate provided that they are likely to be applicable in the period when the deferred tax assets or tax liabilities are realized.

The Group is required to pay income taxes in a number of countries. Significant judgment is required in determining income tax provisions and in evaluating tax positions.

The Group recognizes the benefit of uncertain tax positions in the financial statements when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on examination by the tax authorities. The benefit recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized on settlement with the tax authority, assuming full knowledge of the position and all relevant facts. The Group adjusts its recognition of these uncertain tax benefits in the period in which new information is available impacting either the recognition of measurement of its uncertain tax positions. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions are recognized as income tax expense.

Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the revenue can be reliably measured. We consider amounts to be earned once evidence of an arrangement has been obtained, services are delivered, fees are fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. The Group did not earn revenue during the years 2014 and 2013.

Exploration costs

For exploration and evaluation costs the successful efforts method is applied.

Related parties

Parties are considered to be related if one party directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the other party, if it has an interest in the other party that gives it significant influence over the party, if it has joint control over the party, or if it is an associate or a joint venture. Senior management of the company and close family members are also deemed to be related parties.

Pension plans

In accordance with ASC 715-30, Defined Benefit Plans – Pension, the Group recognizes the funded status of the defined benefit plans in the balance sheet. Actuarial gains and losses are fully recognized in the statement of operations of the respective period.

Stock-based compensation

Stock-based compensation costs are recognized in earnings using the fair-value based method for all awards granted. Compensation costs for unvested stock options and awards are recognized in earnings over the requisite service period based on the fair value of those options and awards. For employees, fair value is estimated at the grant date and for non-employees fair value is re-measured at each reporting date as required by ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, and ASC 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. Fair values of awards granted under the share option plans are estimated using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The model input assumptions are determined based on available internal and external data sources. The risk free rate used in the model is based on the US treasury rate for the expected contractual term. Expected volatility is based on the Company’s own historical share price volatility, since the Company’s share price data can be traced back to April 2, 2007. For restricted share grants, we calculate the fair value applying a prorated discount of 12% on the share price at the grant date over the restriction period. The discount rate is an estimate of the cost of capital, based on previous long-term debt the Company has issued.

Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share are calculated using the Company’s weighted-average outstanding common shares. When the effects are not anti-dilutive, diluted earnings per share is calculated using the weighted-average outstanding common shares and the dilutive effect of warrants and stock options as determined under the treasury stock method.

4. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In June 2014, the FASB released ASU 2014-10 — Accounting Standards Update 2014-10, Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements, Including an Amendment to Variable Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810, Consolidation.

This update was issued to improve financial reporting by reducing the cost and complexity associated with the incremental reporting requirements for development stage entities. Users of financial statements of development stage entities determined that the inception to date information, and certain other disclosures currently required under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the financial statements of development stage entities provide information that has limited relevance and is generally not decision useful. As a result, the amendments in this Update remove all incremental financial reporting requirements from U.S. GAAP for development stage entities, thereby improving financial reporting by eliminating the cost and complexity associated with providing that information.

This update eliminates the requirements for development stage entities to (1) present inception to date information in the statements of income, cash flows, and shareholder equity, (2) label the financial statements as those of a development stage entity, (3) disclose a description of the development stage activities in which the entity is engaged, and (4) disclose in the first year in which the entity is no longer a development stage entity that in prior years it had been in the development stage. The amendments also clarify that the guidance in Topic 275, Risks and Uncertainties, is applicable to entities that have not commenced planned principal operations.

This ASU has been early adopted by the Company as of July 1, 2014 and therefore for the year ended December 31, 2014 as such early adoption is permitted for all financial statements that have not been issued or made available for issuance. This ASU had an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, as the corresponding inception to date information, labeling financial statements as those of a development stage entity, etc. will no longer be provided.

6. PLAN FOR ACQUISITION

On March 31, 2014 DWM Petroleum and Kavsar signed a Supplement Agreement dated for effect September 27, 2013. The Supplement Agreement provided that DWM Petroleum was entitled to receive from Kavsar 65% of the equity in Energy Partners Austria, which was the beneficial owner of 57.42% of the equity in Petroleum Sugd, subject to the payment of USD 2,000,000 by DWM Petroleum. The equity in Energy Partners Austria was to be transferred to TF Petroleum AG at closing. The Supplement Agreement also provided that Kavsar was to transfer all shares of TF Petroleum AG, a Swiss company, to DWM Petroleum, for a consideration of CHF 100,000 (approx. USD 111,656). DWM Petroleum was then to be eligible to future profits and dividends from Energy Partners Austria from January 1, 2014 onwards. On April 4, 2014, DWM Petroleum gained control of TF Petroleum AG, which resulted in an increase in restricted cash and a decrease in transaction prepayment of CHF 100,000 (approx. USD 111,656). The closing of the transaction was subject to the capital restructuring requirement of Energy Partners Austria by Kavsar, the notary act and regulatory approval. On November 21, 2014 the notary act was signed which is effective November 21, 2014. On November 28, 2014, DWM transferred USD 2,000,000 to Kavsar in order to finalize the transaction. The total consideration of USD 12,000,000 was capitalized as a “Transaction prepayment” as at December 31, 2014. After the finalization of the Supplement Agreement, the Share Purchase Agreement is concluded.

During 2012, two wells were drilled as part of one large campaign which included three drillings in Mongolia. At the beginning of the year, the Company had no recorded unproved properties in Mongolia. During 2012, the Company capitalized USD 2,998,636 of which USD 2,225,781 was expensed as “Exploration Costs” in the Statement of Operations during the third quarter of 2012 as the two wells were found dry. The Company had a remaining capitalized balance of USD 772,855 as of December 31, 2013. This balance related to specific costs for wells still to be drilled including capitalized costs recorded as accruals for USD 312,000. These costs were not paid due to the moratorium in place.

As of June 27, 2013, the Company entered into a Moratorium with the Petroleum Authority of Mongolia. The exploration term was suspended for a period of one year and the initial five year exploration term, extended until May 20, 2015; thereafter the Company would have the possibility to extend the licenses for an additional two years if required. The basis for the Moratorium was the lack of drillable economic structures to fulfill the Company’s outstanding PSC commitments. No exploration costs were capitalized during the year ended December 31, 2013.

As of March 31, 2014, the Company impaired USD 312,000 relating to 3 well designs out of the remaining 4 well designs initially capitalized. Furthermore, during the year ended December 31, 2014 the Company renegotiated the cost related to 4 well designs due to the fact that the supplier did not fulfill its responsibilities as per the contract. It was agreed to offset the penalty that the supplier should have paid with the remaining outstanding accrual of USD 312,000.

On May 28, 2014, the Company wrote to the Petroleum Authority of Mongolia requesting the moratorium be extended an additional year. As at December 31, 2014, the Company has not received any response to its request. If the moratorium is extended, the Company plans to begin drilling activities once the full evaluation of the new area is completed and drillable economic structures are available to fulfill outstanding commitments.

During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company capitalized USD 514,368 relating to the well site preparation of Kayrakkum B in the Republic of Tajikistan. Additionally, in December 2014, the Company impaired USD 287,578 relating to various capitalized expenses and materials in Mongolia which were deemed to no longer provide any future economic benefit leaving one well design and drilling equipment as the remaining balance.

9. STOCK COMPENSATION PROGRAM

Amended 2011 Stock Option Plan

At the Company’s Annual and Special Meeting of Shareholders held on September 22, 2011, the shareholders approved the Company’s 2011 Stock Option Plan. The purpose of the 2011 Stock Option Plan is to advance the interests of the Company by encouraging its directors, officers, employees and consultants to acquire shares of the Company’s common stock, thereby increasing their proprietary interest in the Company, encouraging them to remain associated with the Company and providing them with additional incentive to assist the Company in building value. The previous 2011 Stock Option Plan authorizes the Company to issue options to purchase such number of the Company’s common shares as is equal to on aggregate, together with options issued under any prior plan, of up to 10% of the number of issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock at the time of the grant (it is the type of stock option plan referred to as a “rolling” stock option plan).

The Amended 2011 Stock Option Plan, which was approved at the Company’s Annual Shareholders Meeting dated February 20, 2014, authorizes the Company to issue options to purchase such number of the Company’s common shares as is equal to on aggregate, together with options issued under any prior plan, of up to 34,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (it is the type of stock option plan referred to as a “fixed” stock option plan).

If all or any portion of any stock option granted under the Amended 2011 Stock Option Plan expires or terminates without having been exercised in full, the unexercised balance will be returned to the pool of stock available for grant under the 2011 Stock Option Plan. During the year 2014, 1,050,000 stock options were granted to consultants and certain employees. Due to the termination of certain consultant and employment contracts, 850,000 stock options were forfeited during the year.

Recognition of Stock-based Compensation Costs

Stock-based compensation costs are recognized in earnings using the fair-value based method for all awards granted. For employees fair value is estimated at the grant date and for non-employees fair value is re-measured at each reporting date. Compensation costs for unvested stock options and unvested share grants are expensed over the requisite service period on a straight-line basis.

9.1. Stock Option Grants

The Company calculates the fair value of options granted by applying the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Expected volatility is based on the Company’s own historical share price volatility. The Company’s share price data can be traced back to April 2, 2007, and the Company believes that this set of data is sufficient to determine expected volatility as input for the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Company uses the simplified method to determine the expected term as there is no historical exercise data available.

The following table shows the weighted average assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the fair values of the options granted during the financial year ended December 31, 2014 and 2013:

Assumption used	2014	2013
Expected dividend yield	0%	0%
Excepted volatility	147%	107%
Risk-free interest rate	1.14%	0.97%
Expected term (in years)	7.47	5.34

During the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, the weighted average fair value of options granted was USD 0.06 and USD 0.05 at the grant dates, respectively.

The following tables summarize the Company’s stock option activity for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013:

On August 17, 2012, pursuant to agreements dated August 13, 2012, DWM Petroleum sold an additional 90,000,000 of these Petromanas shares to twelve purchasers at a price of CAD 0.115 per common share for gross proceeds of CAD 10,350,000 (USD 10,445,050) together with the right to receive 22.5% of the Performance Shares if and when any Performance Shares are issued by Petromanas. As of December 31, 2012 no proceeds were allocated to these performance shares as they are only issuable upon achievement of certain conditions and the likelihood of the contingent event is not reasonably determined.

During the Period of October 18, 2013 to October 29, 2013, DWM Petroleum sold 1,000,000 shares at a price of CAD 0.12 per common share for gross proceeds of CAD 120,000 (USD 114,900) on the open market. On October 25, 2013, DWM Petroleum sold an additional 3,000,000 shares at a price of CAD 0.10 per common shares for gross proceeds of CAD 300,000 (USD 288,510) on the open market.

On November 8, 2013, DWM Petroleum sold an additional 46,000,000 shares at a volume weighted price of CAD 0.12 per common shares for gross proceeds of CAD 5,595,710 (USD 5,366,286) on the open market.

Since the shares were subject to a hold period of thirty months until February 24, 2013, and because the shares were also deposited into escrow and subject to a fixed escrow release schedule, the Company deemed them to have a Level 2 input for the calculation of the fair value in accordance with ASC 820 (Fair value measurements and disclosures). The Company had applied an annual discount rate of 12% on the quoted market price based on the time before the shares become freely tradable. The discount rate was an estimate of the cost of capital, based on previous long-term debt the Company has issued.

Since February 25, 2013 the fair value of the investment in Petromanas has been reclassified to Level 1 and no additional discount rate is being used for the current calculation of the investment.

Effective from and after August 14, 2013 all Petromanas shares held by the Company were free of any restrictions and are eligible for resale. The Company intends to use these shares for its working capital requirements or pledge them for a short term financing facility. Pursuant to that we have reclassified the remaining Petromanas shares from non-current to current assets.

On December 31, 2013, DWM Petroleum owned and controlled 50,000,000 common shares of Petromanas and it had the right to acquire a further 38,750,000 common shares (referred to as “Performance Shares”) upon the occurrence of certain conditions. The 50,000,000 common shares represented approximately 7.2% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Petromanas.

Between February 26, 2014 and February 27, 2014 DWM Petroleum sold 1,500,000 shares of Petromanas (PMI) at a weighted average price of CAD 0.23 per common share for gross proceeds of CAD 337,500 (USD 300,602). On March 5, 2014, DWM Petroleum sold an additional 40,000,000 shares at a price of CAD 0.20 per common share for gross proceeds of CAD 8,000,000 (USD 7,214,632) on the open market. On March 6, 2014 DWM Petroleum sold 500,000 shares at a price of CAD 0.22 for gross proceeds of CAD 110,000 (USD 98,751).

During the period between November 7, 2014 and November 21, 2014 DWM Petroleum sold 4,000,000 shares at a weighted average price of CAD 0.095 per common share for gross proceeds of CAD 380,000 (USD 335,266).

As of December 31, 2014, DWM Petroleum holds 4,000,000 shares in Petromanas, representing 0.6% of the outstanding shares. Additionally, it has the right to receive a further 38,750,000 common shares (referred to as “Performance Shares”) upon the occurrence of certain conditions.

The quoted market price for one common share of Petromanas on December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was CAD 0.06 (USD 0.052) and CAD 0.16 (USD 0.150), respectively.

During the year ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, the Company recorded USD 665,378 unrealized gain on investment in Petromanas and USD 4,247,067 unrealized loss on investment, respectively.

CJSC South Petroleum Company

On October 4, 2006 a contract was signed with Santos International Holdings PTY Ltd. (“Santos”) to sell a 70% interest in CJSC South Petroleum Company, Jalalabat for a payment of USD 4,000,000, a two phase work program totalling USD 53,500,000 (Phase 1: USD 11,500,000, Phase 2: USD 42,000,000), additional working capital outlays of USD 1,000,000 per annum and an earn-out of USD 1,000,000 to former DWM shareholders to be settled in shares of Santos if they elect to enter into Phase 2 of the work program. If Santos does not exercise the option to enter into Phase 2, the 70% interest is returned to DWM Petroleum at no cost. On December 2, 2008, Santos announced to enter into Phase 2 and the earn-out was paid to former DWM shareholders.

In phase 2 of the work program, in the event Santos spends in excess of USD 42,000,000 on the appraisal wells, the Company would be obligated to pay 30% of the excess expenditure. Pursuant to the farm-in agreement with Santos, costs had been carried by Santos and DWM Petroleum AG has not recorded any losses.

Due to political uncertainty in the country Santos and DWM have decided to exit Kyrgyzstan. On July 2013, the Board of Directors took the decision to exit Kyrgyzstan. Since then all of the licenses have expired and Santos is in the process of winding up South Petroleum at its expense. There will be no liquidated damages as a result of exiting the venture. We wrote off our investment in associate of USD 238,304 during the third quarter of 2013 which was recorded under exploration costs.

South Petroleum Company was formally liquidated as of October 24, 2014.

CJSC Somon Oil (Tajikistan)

On December 10, 2007 DWM Petroleum (100% subsidiary of MNP Petroleum) & Santos entered into an Option Agreement under which Santos had a unilateral option to elect for those parties to execute at a later stage, a Farm In Agreement for a 70% interest in DWM Petroleum’s “West” (area Navobod-Obchai Kalacha) Tajikistan License and a proposed North Tajik license. MNP Petroleum expects the North Tajik license to be granted to Somon Oil in the near future.

Santos International Ventures Pty Ltd had an option to enter into a farm in agreement in respect of these licenses, but decided in December 31, 2012 not to pursue this option. Santos continued to fund current capital expenditures, as well as certain general and administrative costs of Somon Oil until January 2013. DWM is in negotiations to setup a new consortium for this acreage, and the Company anticipates the financial commitment amounts to change. To date no liquidated damages have occurred.

Under current income tax law in Mongolia, our 74% owned subsidiary Gobi Energy Partners LLC is exempted from income tax.

The following tax years remain subject to examination:

Significant Jurisdictions		Open Years
US Federal		2014
Switzerland		2014
Mongolia		2014
Tajikistan		2014

As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, there were no known uncertain tax positions. We have not identified any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that a significant change will occur during the next 12 months.

Pursuant to APB 23, provision has not been made for U.S. or additional foreign taxes since all ventures of the Company are not generating any income and will not for the foreseeable future. The company expects that future earnings will be reinvested but could become subject to additional tax if they were remitted as dividends or were loaned to the Company, or if the Company should sell or dispose of its stock in the foreign subsidiaries. It is not practical to determine the deferred tax liability, if any, that might be payable on foreign earnings because if the Company were to repatriate these earnings, the Company believes there would be various methods available to it, each with different U.S. tax consequences.

16. COMMITMENTS & CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

Legal actions and claims (Republic of Tajikistan, Mongolia and Chile)

In the ordinary course of business, members of the Group doing business in Mongolia and the Republic of Tajikistan may be subject to legal actions and complaints from time to time. Management believes that the ultimate liability, if any, arising from such actions or complaints will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, the results of future operations or cash flows of the associates/subsidiaries in Mongolia and the Republic of Tajikistan.

At December 31, 2014, there had been no legal actions against any member of the Group in Mongolia and the Republic of Tajikistan.

Management believes that the members of the Group are in substantial compliance with the tax laws affecting their respective operations in the Republic of Tajikistan and Mongolia. However, the risk remains that relevant authorities could take differing positions with regards to interpretative issues.

License agreements held by Gobi Energy Partners (Mongolia)

The following table sets forth the approximate financial commitment amounts pursuant to each production sharing contract for Blocks XIII and XIV during the periods indicated (in USD):

Production Sharing Contract	2013*	2014*
Block XIII	6,900,000	6,900,000
Block XIV	6,900,000	6,900,000

* Financial commitment for the fifth contract year (starting April 21 of each year) of the production sharing contract

The contract is currently under a Moratorium, which extends the contract period by one year. Afterwards the licenses can be extended. The Moratorium ends in May 2014. It was entered due to lack of potentially economic prospects to fulfill the outstanding commitments. We have applied for a further extension of the Moratorium until the end of May 2015. The approval is still pending.

License agreement held by CJSC Somon Oil (Republic of Tajikistan)

The following table sets forth the approximate commitments pursuant to the licenses during the periods indicated (in USD):

License Area	2013*	2014*	2015*	2016*
West¹	4,500,000	2,500,000	to be agreed	to be agreed
North-West²	8,680,000	8,700,000	3,600,000	4,600,000

Santos International Ventures Pty Ltd funded all expenditures of Somon Oil, and had an option to enter into a farm-in agreement in respect of these licenses, but decided on December 21, 2012 not to pursue this option. Santos continued to fund current capital expenditures, as well as certain general and administrative costs of Somon Oil until January 2013. We remain confident that the project has exploration potential and we are actively working to form a new consortium.

Operating leases

In October 2011, the Company entered into lease contracts for two cars. The contracts have a term of 48 months each.

For the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 we had expenses for these items of USD 24,951 and USD 120,765, respectively.

Future net lease payments for two leased cars are presented in the table below (in USD):

Defined Benefit Plan

We maintain Swiss defined benefit plans for seven of our employees. These plans are part of independent collective funds providing pensions combined with life and disability insurance. The assets of the funded plans are held independently of the Company’s assets in a legally distinct and independent collective trust fund which serves various unrelated employers. The funds’ benefit obligations are fully reinsured by AXA Winterthur Insurance Company. The plans are valued by independent actuaries using the projected unit credit method. The liabilities correspond to the projected benefit obligations of which the discounted net present value is calculated based on years of employment, expected salary increases, and pension adjustments.

The actuarial valuation was carried out as of December 31, 2014. The amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheets, shown in other non-current liabilities, as at December 31, 2014 and as at December 31, 2013 respectively, were determined to be as follows:

Amounts recognized (in USD)	2014		2013
ABO End of Year	628,800		685,041

Change in PBO During Year
PBO at Beginning of Period	923,602		827,379

Fair Value of Assets at End of Year	726,047		781,331
Net Assets/(Liabilities) in Balance Sheet	(340,349	)	(142,271	)

The following table provides the weighted average assumptions used to calculate net periodic benefit cost and the actuarial present value of projected benefit obligations:

Assumptions at year-end	Dec 31, 2014	Dec 31, 2013
Discount rate	1.10%	2.25%
Expected rate of return on plan assets	1.10%	2.00%
Salary increases	1.00%	1.00%

Due to current economic conditions and the decrease in government bond rates, the discount rate used in the pension plan calculations decrease significantly in the year ended December 31, 2014.

Future benefits, to the extent that they are based on compensation, include assumed salary increases, as presented above, consistent with past experience and estimates of future increases in the Swiss industrial labor market.

Net periodic pension cost has been included in the Company’s results as follows:

Pension expense (in USD)	Dec 31, 2014		Dec 31, 2013
Net service cost	16,424		47,545
Interest cost	21,617		19,029
Expected return on assets	(17,667	)	(17,223	)
Actuarial net loss	267,202		19,637
Net periodic pension cost	287,576		68,988

All of the assets are held under the collective contract by the plan’s re-insurer AXA Winterthur Insurance Company and are invested in a mix of Swiss and international bond and equity securities within the limits prescribed by the Swiss Pension Law.

The expected future cash flows to be paid by the Group in respect of employer contributions to the pension plan for the year ended December 31, 2015 are USD 72,925.

Future projected benefit payments in the next five years are expected to be zero.

For its employees in subsidiaries outside of Switzerland, the social security policy does not require pension funding from the employer.

18. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions. Financial assets carried at fair value are classified in one of the three categories as follows:

Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value as of December 31, 2014:

Financial assets 2014 (in USD)	Level 1	Level 2	Level 3
Investment in associate (Petromanas)	206,382	-	-
Total	206,382	-	-

Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value as of December 31, 2013:

Financial assets 2013 (in USD)	Level 1	Level 2	Level 3
Investment in associate (Petromanas)	7,478,799	-	-
Total	7,478,799	-	-

The following table summarizes the changes in the fair value of the Company’s level 2 financial assets and liabilities for the year ended December 31, 2013 (in USD):

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

In addition to the methods and assumptions we use to record the fair value of financial instruments as discussed in the Fair Value Measurements section above, we used the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of our financial instruments.

Cash and cash equivalents – carrying amount approximated fair value.
Restricted cash – carrying amount approximated fair value
Accounts receivable – carrying amount approximated fair value.
Transaction prepayment – carrying amount approximated fair value.
Investment in Petromanas – calculated based on quoted market prices.
Accounts Payable – carrying amount approximated fair value.

The fair value of our financial instruments is presented in the table below (in USD):

	*December 31, 2014*		*December 31, 2013*		*Fair Value*
	Carrying	Fair	Carrying	Fair Value	*Levels*	*Reference*

19. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share result by dividing the Company’s net income (or net loss) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the contemplated period.

Diluted earnings per share are calculated applying the treasury stock method. When there is net income, dilutive effects of all stock-based compensation awards or participating financial instruments are considered. When the Company posts a loss, basic loss per share equals diluted loss per share.

The following table depicts how the denominator for the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share was determined under the treasury stock method:

	Year ended
EPS	Dec 31, 2014	Dec 31, 2013
Company posted	Net loss	Net loss
Basic weighted average shares outstanding	170,134,834	172,592,292
Dilutive effect of common stock equivalents:
- stock options under employee compensation plans and warrants	-	-
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding	170,134,834	172,592,292

The following table shows the total number of stock equivalents that was excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the respective period because the effect would have been anti-dilutive:

	Year ended
Stock equivalent	Dec 31, 2014	Dec 31, 2013
Options	12,300,000	12,100,000
Warrants	-	44,450,500
Total	12,300,000	56,550,500

20. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Chief Operating Decision Makers (“CODM”) are the Group CEO and Group CFO. None of the CODM, Executive Officers nor the Directors receive disaggregated financial information about the locations in which exploration is occurring. Therefore, the Group considers that it has only one reporting segment.

The following table presents the Company’s tangible fixed assets by geographic region:

Tangible fixed assets (in USD)	Dec 31, 2014	Dec 31, 2013
United States	-	-
Switzerland	13,893	14,223
Mongolia	39,699	62,070
Tajikistan	29,662	56,081
Total tangible fixed assets	83,254	132,374

21. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

ITEM 9A CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures”, as that term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e), promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our company’s reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by paragraph (b) of Rules 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, evaluated our company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this annual report on Form 10-K. Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this annual report on Form 10-K, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and our Board of Directors, is responsible for establishing and maintaining a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014. Our management’s evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting was based on the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (1992), issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2014 and no material weakness has been detected within our company.

A material weakness is a deficiency or a combination of control deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer do not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additional controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Mr. Scholz earned his Engineering degree in 1975 and MSc equivalent in Physics in 1979 at University (Bremen) Engineer for Electro Technology and University for Technology (Bremen), respectively.

We believe Mr. Scholz is qualified to serve on our Board of Directors because of his extensive knowledge of our company’s history and current operations. Mr. Scholz is also a co-founder of DWM Petroleum AG, our wholly-owned subsidiary. Mr. Scholz plays a critical role in targeting, appraising and subsequently acquiring the rights to major oil and gas assets in the former Soviet Union and its satellite countries.

We believe Mr. Velletta is qualified to serve on our Board of Directors because of his extensive knowledge of our company’s history and current operations, his legal background and skills, and his experience as a director on the board of other companies. In particular, Mr. Velletta’s background as a lawyer provides a unique perspective to our Board of Directors.

Committees of the Board of Directors

Our Board of Directors has the authority to appoint committees to perform certain management and administration functions. Currently, we have an audit committee, a corporate governance and compensation committee and a technical committee but we do not have a nominating committee or an audit committee financial expert.

Nominating Committee

We do not have a nominating committee. Our Board of Directors performs the functions associated with a nominating committee. Generally, nominees for directors are identified and suggested by the members of our Board of Directors or management using their business networks and all of our director nominees were nominated for a seat on the Board of Directors based on prior service as directors to our company. Our Board of Directors has not retained any executive search firms or other third parties to identify or evaluate director candidates in the past and does not intend to in the near future. We have elected not to have a nominating committee because we are an exploration stage company with limited operations and resources.

Our Board of Directors does not have a written policy or charter regarding how director candidates are evaluated or nominated for our Board of Directors. Additionally, our Board of Directors has not created particular qualifications or minimum standards that candidates for our Board of Directors must meet. Instead, our Board of Directors considers how a candidate could contribute to our business and meet our needs and those of our Board of Directors. As we are an exploration stage company, our Board of Directors will not consider candidates for director recommended by our stockholders, and we have received no such candidate recommendations from our stockholders.

Corporate Governance and Compensation Committee

Effective March 25, 2013, our Board of Directors established a corporate governance and compensation committee consisting of Darcy W. Spady, Heinz J. Scholz and Michael J. Velletta. Darcy W. Spady is the chair of the corporate governance and compensation committee. Our corporate governance and compensation committee assists our Board of Directors in fulfilling its compensation responsibilities by reviewing all forms of compensation provided to our executive officers, directors, consultants and employees, including stock-based compensation.

Technical Committee

Effective March 25, 2013, our Board of Directors established a technical committee consisting of Dr. Werner Ladwein and Darcy W. Spady. Darcy W. Spady is the chair of the technical committee. Our technical committee assists our Board of Directors with respect to the potential reserves, if any, of our oil and gas property interests.

Audit Committee

Effective December 20, 2010, our Board of Directors established an audit committee. The audit committee currently consists of Michael J. Velletta, Dr. Richard Schenz, and Darcy Spady. Michael J. Velletta is the chair of the audit committee. Our audit committee assists our Board of Directors in fulfilling its financial oversight responsibilities by reviewing the financial reports and other financial information provided by our company to regulatory authorities and stockholders, our systems of internal controls regarding finance and accounting and our auditing, accounting and financial reporting processes. Our audit committee’s primary duties and responsibilities are to serve as an independent and objective party to monitor our financial reporting and internal control system and review our financial statements, review and appraise the performance of our external auditor and provide an open avenue of communication among our auditor, financial and senior management and our Board of Directors.

Audit Committee Financial Expert

Our Board of Directors has determined that it does not have a member that qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K issued by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.

We believe that our entire audit committee is capable of analyzing and evaluating financial statements that present a breadth and level of complexity of accounting issues that are generally comparable to the breadth and complexity of the issues reasonably expected to be raised by our company. We believe that retaining an independent director who would qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” would be overly costly and burdensome and is not warranted in our circumstances given the early stages of our development and the fact that we have not generated operating revenues to date.

Family Relationships

There are no family relationships between any director or executive officer.

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

Except as disclosed below, our directors and executive officers have not been involved in any of the following events during the past ten years:

	1.	any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time;
	2.	any conviction in a criminal proceeding or being subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses);
	3.	being subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities;
	4.	being found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the Securities and Exchange Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended, or vacated;
	5.	being the subject of, or a party to, any federal or state judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, or finding, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, relating to an alleged violation of: (i) any federal or state securities or commodities law or regulation; or (ii) any law or regulation respecting financial institutions or insurance companies including, but not limited to, a temporary or permanent injunction, order of disgorgement or restitution, civil money penalty or temporary or permanent cease- and-desist order, or removal or prohibition order; or (iii) any law or regulation prohibiting mail or wire fraud or fraud in connection with any business entity; or

being the subject of, or a party to, any sanction or order, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any self-regulatory organization (as defined in Section 3(a)(26) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), any registered entity (as defined in Section 1(a)(29) of the Commodity Exchange Act), or any equivalent exchange, association, entity or organization that has disciplinary authority over its members or persons associated with a member.

On October 9, 2007, the British Columbia Securities Commission of Canada issued a cease trade order against our company in British Columbia, Canada pursuant to section 164(1) of the Securities Act (British Columbia). At the time of the order, we were not a reporting issuer in British Columbia, Canada and had our securities quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board. We distributed securities to residents of British Columbia and failed to file a Report of Exempt Distribution with the British Columbia Securities Commission according to National Instrument 45-106. As a result, the British Columbia Securities Commission ordered that trading in our securities cease in British Columbia until the order was revoked. We filed the Report of Exempt Distribution and on April 1, 2008, the British Columbia Securities Commission partially revoked the cease trade order to permit trading in our securities except by certain offshore entities. The British Columbia Securities Commission left the order in effect with respect to those offshore entities because it was unable to determine the beneficial ownership of the shares registered in the name of those entities.

Code of Ethics

On May 1, 2007, our Board of Directors adopted a code of business conduct and ethics policy, which is posted on our homepage under www.mnppetroleum.com. The adoption of our code of business conduct and ethics policy allows us to focus our Board of Directors and each director and officer on areas of ethical risk, provide guidance to directors to help them recognize and deal with ethical issues, provide mechanisms to report unethical conduct and help foster a culture of honesty and accountability.

Except as set out in our code of business conduct and ethics policy, we do not have any formal policies and procedures for the review, approval or ratification of transactions between individual board members or officers and us. Our code of business conduct and ethics policy, which applies to all of our officers and directors, states that they must avoid any conflicts of interest between the director or officer and us unless the relationship is approved in advance by our Board of Directors. The code sets out a conflict of interest as a situation in which a director’s or officer’s personal interest is adverse, or may appear to be adverse, to our interest as a whole.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of our common stock, to file initial statements of beneficial ownership, reports of changes in ownership and annual reports concerning their ownership of our common stock and other equity securities with the Securities and Exchange Commission and to provide us with copies of those filings. Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms received by us, or written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe that during year ended December 31, 2014 all filing requirements applicable to our executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of our common stock were complied with, with the exception of the following:

Name	Number of Late Reports	Number of Transactions Not Reported on a Timely Basis	Failure to File Requested Forms

Darcy Spady	3	3	Nil

The assets of the funded plan are held independently of our assets in a legally distinct and independent collective trust fund which serves various unrelated employers. The fund’s benefit obligations are fully reinsured by AXA Winterthur Insurance Company. Except for our Swiss defined benefit plans for our employees, there is no plan that provides for the payment of retirement benefits, or benefits that will be paid primarily following retirement, including but not limited to tax-qualified defined benefit plans, supplemental executive retirement plans, tax-qualified defined contribution plans and nonqualified defined contribution plans.

The descriptions of the material terms of each contract, agreement, plan or arrangement, whether written or unwritten, that provides for payments to a named executive officer or director at the time of, following, or in connection with the resignation, retirement or other termination of a named executive officer or director, or a change in control of our company or a change in the named executive officer’s or director’s responsibilities following a change in control, with respect to each named executive officer or director are provided below.

Compensation for Dr. Werner Ladwein

As of September 16, 2010, we granted Dr. Ladwein stock options to purchase 500,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of USD 0.52 per share and 500,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of USD 0.65 per share until September 16, 2020. Effective as of February 1, 2013, we and Dr. Ladwein agreed to cancel these stock options.

On September 22, 2011, we granted Dr. Ladwein 2,000,000 shares of our common stock in part as remuneration for valuable services he has already provided to our company and in part as an incentive for him to continue to provide us with his services. On September 22, 2011 we also granted Dr. Ladwein stock options to purchase 1,000,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of USD 0.215 per share until September 22, 2021. The options vest in four equal installments over 24 months, with installments vesting on March 22, 2012, September 22, 2012, March 22, 2013 and September 22, 2013.

When Erik Herlyn resigned as our President and Chief Executive Officer in July of 2010, Peter-Mark Vogel agreed to take up the position of President. Mr. Vogel, who has an extensive background in finance and business administration, asked Dr. Ladwein, who joined our Board of Directors on September 16, 2010, to assist him with our oil and gas operations. Dr. Ladwein agreed and his generous contributions of time and effort to the evolution of our business over the year that followed resulted in the decision to formally reorganize our executive group to create two complementary executive offices that would, working together, lead our company forward - on November 1, 2011, Dr. Ladwein became our President, officially responsible for the conduct of our oil and gas operations, while Mr. Vogel continued in the role of Chief Executive Officer, responsible for finance and corporate administration. At the time, our Board of Directors authorized our company to pay to Dr. Ladwein the sum of USD 175,000. We paid this sum to Dr. Ladwein on March 28, 2012. In addition, in consideration for acting as our President, we provide Dr. Ladwein a monthly salary of approximately USD 19,204 (CHF 17,850) and granted an option to buy 3,000,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of USD 0.215. The options vest in four equal installments over 24 months, with installments vesting on May 1, 2012, November 1, 2012, May 1, 2013 and November 1, 2013. In addition, we provide Dr. Ladwein with housing and a car as long as he resides in Switzerland. On March 25, 2013, Mr. Vogel resigned from the office of Chief Executive Officer and Dr. Ladwein assumed the role of both President and Chief Executive Officer. On that same date, Mr. Vogel was appointed to the office of Corporate Secretary.

If we terminate Dr. Ladwein without cause or Dr. Ladwein resigns as a result of our breach of any provision of the employment agreement, or a material change in his duties, we must make certain payments in addition to the payment of all compensation accrued through the effective date of resignation and reimbursement for all expenses incurred before the termination. Under such circumstances, we must pay him in a lump sum equal to three months of his annual guaranteed salary in effect on the date of termination. In addition, all options granted to him would immediately vest and become exercisable upon the termination of Dr. Ladwein’s employment as described above. Our stock option agreement also provides that all options granted to him would immediately vest and become exercisable upon the occurrence of a change in control.
