Notes to the Consolidated Interim Financial Statements |
(Expressed in United States Dollars) |
(Unaudited – Prepared by Management) |
|
For the Three Month Period Ended October 31, 2005 and 2004 |
NOTE 1 – ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The unaudited consolidated interim financial statements of Trans-Orient Petroleum Ltd. and its wholly owned subsidiary DLJ Management Corp. and its controlled subsidiary AMG Oil Ltd., have been prepared in conformity with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles, which were the same accounting policies and methods of computation as the audited consolidated financial statements as at July 31, 2005. The disclosure which follows is incremental to the disclosure included in the annual consolidated financial statements. These interim financial statements to October 31, 2005 should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended July 31, 2005.
Refer to Note 8
NOTE 2 – FUTURE OPERATIONS
The Company does not generate sufficient cash flow from operations to adequately fund its activities and has therefore relied principally upon the issuance of securities and the sale of investments for financing. The Company intends to continue relying upon the issuance of securities and the sale of investments to finance its operations and activities to the extent they are available to the Company and under terms acceptable to the Company. Accordingly, the Company’s consolidated interim financial statements are presented on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of operations.
NOTE 3 - INVESTMENTS
At October 31, 2005, the Company’s ownership interests in investments accounted for under the consolidation method or cost method of accounting are as follows:

During the quarter ended October 31, 2005, the Company participated in a private placement in Austral Pacific Energy Ltd. The Company purchased 200,000 units at US$2.50 per unit. Each unit consists of one share and one half of one share purchase warrant, with each warrant entitling the Company to purchase one common share at a price of US$3.50 per share for one year subject to an accelerated expiry if a trigger price of US$4.50 is reached in the first twelve months from the issue date. The expiry date of the warrants, if not accelerated, is October 13, 2006.
During the three months ended October 31, 2005, the Company exercised 500,000 TAG Oil Ltd. share purchase warrants at a price of US$0.60 per share. The Company then sold 1,000,000 shares of TAG Oil with a book value of $500,000 for proceeds of $1,141,581 for a gain over book value of $641,581.

NOTE 4 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company is of the view that the amounts incurred for services provided by related parties approximates what the Company would incur to non-arms length parties for the same services. The following related party transaction is not disclosed elsewhere in these financial statements.
On April 1, 2005, the Company entered into a Consulting Agreement with a private company wholly-owned by its President to provide executive services to the Company. The agreement is for a one-year period, extendable if agreed by both parties with monthly compensation of $5,000.

The Company, per a revised loan repayment term sheet relating to a loan made to Verida Internet Corp. in the 2001 fiscal year, receives CAD$3,000 per month, including principal and interest. The payments of $3,000 per month are to continue until the end of the loan repayment term of April 1, 2008, although there is considerable doubt whether the Company will receive all future payments. For the three month period ended October 31, 2005 the Company has received $7,585 (October 31, 2004 – $7,019).
