Each share of common stock entitles the holder thereof to one vote on all matters submitted to stockholders. Each share of Series A preferred stock had 10,000 votes. The total voting power of the Series A preferred stock is 797,550,000 votes.

PROPOSAL NO. 1
SHARE INCREASE AMENDMENT
The Board of Directors has approved, subject to stockholders' approval, an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to increase our authorized shares of common stock from 500,000,000 shares to 3,000,000,000 shares, par value $0.001.
The Board of Directors has determined that this amendment is advisable and in our best interests.
General
On October 15, 2014, our Board of Directors approved, declared it advisable and in our best interest and directed that there be submitted to the holders of a majority of our common stock for approval, the prospective amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock from five hundred million (500,000,000) shares to three billion (3,000,000,000) shares, par value $0.001 per share.
Reasons for the Amendment
We are currently authorized to issue 500,000,000 shares of common stock. Currently, there are 491,504,333 shares of common stock outstanding. We are obligated in our contract with JLM Strategic Investments to convert their shares of Series A Preferred Stock to shares of common stock. To convert all of their Series A Preferred Stock to shares of common stock we need to issue an additional 797,550,000 shares of common stock. Currently, we can only issue 8,495,667 shares since our authorized shares of common stock are limited to only 500,000,000 shares. After the increase in the authorized number of shares of common stock, there will be available for issuance, 2,508,495,667 shares of our common stock. The par value of our common stock will remain $0.001 per share. The terms of the additional shares of Common Stock will be identical to those of the currently outstanding shares of common stock. The share increase amendment will not alter the current number of issued shares. The relative rights and limitations of the shares of common stock would remain unchanged.
The Board of Directors believes it is prudent to increase the authorized shares of common stock at this time since we are concurrently seeking shareholder approval to create a class of preferred stock. The amendment to increase the authorized shares of common stock at this time will alleviate the need to do it by a separate action sometime in the future.
More generally, the increase in the authorized number of shares of common stock will enable us to engage in (i) possible future financings and (ii) such other corporate purposes as the Board of Directors determines in its discretion. These corporate purposes may include future stock splits, stock dividends or other distributions, future financings, acquisitions and stock options and other equity benefits under our employee benefit plans. Currently, we have no plans to issue additional shares of common stock other than upon the exercise of outstanding options.
Certain Effects of the Amendment
The increase in authorized shares of common stock is not being proposed as a means of preventing or dissuading a change in control or takeover of us. However, use of these shares for such a purpose is possible. Authorized but unissued or unreserved common stock and preferred stock, for example, could be issued in an effort to dilute the stock ownership and voting power of persons seeking to obtain control of us or could be issued to purchasers who would support the Board of Directors in opposing a takeover proposal. In addition, the increase in authorized shares of common stock, if approved, may have the effect of discouraging a challenge for control or make it less likely that such a challenge, if attempted, would be successful. The Board of Directors and our executive officers have no knowledge of any current effort to obtain control of us or to accumulate large amounts of shares of our Common Stock.
The holders of shares of our common stock are not entitled to preemptive rights with respect to the issuance of additional shares of common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of common stock. Accordingly, the issuance of additional shares of our common stock or such other securities might dilute the ownership and voting rights of stockholders.
The proposed amendment to the Articles of Incorporation does not change the terms of the common stock. The additional shares of common stock for which authorization is sought will have the same voting rights, the same rights to dividends and distributions and will be identical in all other respects to the common stock now authorized.
We could also use the additional shares of common stock for potential strategic transactions, including, among other things, acquisitions, spin-offs, strategic partnerships, joint ventures, restructurings, divestitures, business combinations and investments. We cannot provide assurances that any such transactions will be consummated on favorable terms or at all, that they will enhance stockholder value or that they will not adversely affect our business or the trading price of the common stock. Any such transaction may require us to incur non-recurring or other charges and may pose significant integration challenges and/or management and business disruptions, any of which could materially and adversely affect our business and financial results.
PROPOSAL NO. 2
Reverse Stock Split
On October 15, 2014, our board of directors and our principal stockholders holding a majority of our voting power approved a reverse stock split of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock, on a one (1) share for forty (40) shares basis. The effective date of the split will be established at the discretion of our board of directors. We presently anticipate the split to occur on or about March 7, 2015.
All shares of our common stock have equal rights and privileges with respect to voting, liquidation and dividend rights. Each share entitles the holder thereof to (i) one non-cumulative vote for each share held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders; (ii) to participate equally and to receive any and all such dividends as may be declared by the board of directors; and (iii) to participate pro rata in any distribution of assets available for distribution upon liquidation. Holders of our common stock have no preemptive rights to acquire additional shares of common stock or any other securities. The common stock is not subject to redemption and carries no subscription or conversion rights.
Amendment to Articles of Incorporation
In connection with the Reverse Stock Split, we will not file with the State of Nevada an amendment to our articles of incorporation to reflect the split. After the stock split, our current outstanding shares of common stock will be reduced from 491,504,333 shares to 12,287,608 shares. Our authorized Series A Preferred Stock will remain unchanged with 10,000,000 million shares of Series A Preferred Stock authorized with a no par value per share of which 79,775 shares outstanding. Each share of preferred stock has 10,000 votes and votes with the common shares on all matters submitted to the shareholders for a vote.
Under applicable Nevada law, a corporation may effect a reverse stock split without correspondingly decreasing the number of authorized shares of the same class or series if:
(a) | The board of directors adopts a resolution setting forth the proposal to decrease the number of issued and outstanding shares of a class or series; and |
(b) | The proposal is approved by the vote of stockholders holding a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of the affected class or series. |
Our board of directors has approved the Reverse Stock Split and stockholders holding a majority of our voting power have also approved the split by written consent. Upon the effectiveness of the split, each share of our issued and outstanding common stock will be reverse split on a one (1) share for forty (40) shares basis. Stockholders who would otherwise be entitled to receive fractional shares, because
they hold a number of shares of common stock that is not evenly divided by the split ratio, will have the number of new shares to which they are entitled rounded up to the next whole number of shares. No stockholders will receive cash in lieu of fractional shares.
Effect of the Reverse Stock Split
Split shares of common stock issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split will be fully paid and non-assessable. The number of stockholders will remain unchanged as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. The Reverse Stock Split will decrease the number of outstanding common shares but will not affect any stockholder's proportionate interest in our company prior to the closing of the Share Exchange, except for minor differences resulting from the rounding up of fractional shares. The par value of our common stock will remain unchanged. While the aggregate par value of our outstanding common stock will be decreased, our additional paid-in capital will be increased by a corresponding amount. Therefore, the Reverse Stock Split will not affect our total stockholders' equity. All share and per share information will be retroactively adjusted to reflect the split for all periods presented in our future financial reports and regulatory filings.
Although it is generally expected that a reverse split will result in a proportionate increase in the market price of the split shares, there can be no assurance that our common stock will trade at a multiple of our current price, or that any price increase will occur or be sustained. If the market price of our stock declines after the implementation of the Reverse Stock Split, the percentage decline as an absolute number and as a percentage of our overall market capitalization would be greater than would be the case in the absence of the reverse split.
Furthermore, the possibility exists that the reduction in the number of outstanding shares will adversely affect the market for our common stock by reducing the relative level of liquidity. In addition, the Reverse Stock Split may increase the number of the stockholders who own odd lots, or less than 100 shares. Stockholders who hold odd lots typically will experience an increase in the cost of selling their shares, as well as possible greater difficulty in effecting such sales. Consequently, there can be no assurance that the Reverse Stock Split will achieve the desired results outlined above.
Following the Reverse Stock Split, we will have issued and outstanding approximately 12,288,000 shares of common stock, without giving effect to the rounding up of fractional shares.
Following the Reverse Stock Split, we will have the corporate authority to issue 2,987,712,000 shares of authorized but unissued common stock. These shares may be issued without stockholder approval at any time, in the sole discretion of our board of directors. The authorized and unissued shares may be issued for cash, to acquire property or for any other purpose that is deemed in the best interests of our company. Any decision to issue additional shares will reduce the percentage of our stockholders' equity held by our current stockholders and could dilute our net tangible book value. We have no immediate plans, proposals or arrangements, written or otherwise, to use these authorized and unissued shares of common stock following the Reverse Stock Split other than to issue shares of common stock in connection with the conversion of our Series A Preferred Stock. Under the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock, when there are sufficient unissued shares of common stock available, the Series A Preferred Stock must automatically convert to common stock. That means that an additional 797,550,000 shares of common stock will be issued to holders of the Series A Preferred Stock.
Our authorized and unissued shares could possibly be used by management to oppose a hostile takeover attempt, delay or prevent changes of control, or changes in or removal of management. This could include transactions that are favored by a majority of stockholders, or in which the stockholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares over then-current market price, or benefit stockholders in some other manner. Tender offers or other non-open market acquisitions of stock are usually made at prices above the prevailing market price. In addition, acquisitions of stock by persons attempting to acquire control through market purchases may cause the market price of the stock to reach levels that are higher than would otherwise be the case.
The available authorized and unissued shares of common stock gives the company the ability to cause a potential anti-takeover effect by creating potential dilution to the number of outstanding shares. Such dilution will cause a party attempting a takeover to be required to buy more shares of the company stock and to expend additional resources to accomplish a takeover. The Reverse Stock Split is not part of a plan by management to affect the ability of third parties to take over or change control of the company, nor are we currently contemplating any such anti-takeover plan.
We will not become a private company as a result of the reverse split, we expect that our common stock will continue to be quoted on the OTC-QB and we plan to continue to file periodic and other reports with the SEC under the Exchange Act.
Following the Reverse Stock Split, the share certificates you now hold will be replaced with new certificates. You are not required to exchange your certificates for new certificates. The old certificates now in your possession will be cancelled. In the future, new share certificates will be issued reflecting the stock split, but this in no way will affect the validity of your current share certificates. The reverse split will occur on the effective date without any further action on the part of our stockholders. After the effective date of the reverse split, each share certificate representing shares of pre-split common stock will be deemed to represent 1/40 shares of post-split common stock. Certificates representing post-split common stock will be issued in due course by our transfer agent: Columbia Stock Transfer Company, 601 E. Seltice Way, Post Falls, Idaho 83854. Its telephone number is (208) 664-3544.
Reason for the Reverse Stock Split
We currently have 500,000,000 shares of common stock authorized. We are committed to have to issue additional shares of common stock to our holders of our Series A Preferred Stock upon conversion of those shares to shares of common stock. Currently, we cannot convert all of the Series A Preferred Stock to shares of common stock because we do not have enough authorized shares to permit us to do so. Also, out stock currently trades at $0.03. We also believe our common stock would trade better in the market if its price per share was in the $1.00 to $2.00 range. The reverse stock split will help us achieve that objective. Accordingly, for both of the foregoing reasons, we have elected to reverse split our shares of common stock.
GENERAL STATEMENTS
We request that stockholders do not send in any of their stock certificates at this time.
As applicable, new share certificates evidencing post-split shares that are issued in exchange for old pre-split certificates representing restricted shares, will contain the same restrictive legend as on the old certificates. Also, for purposes of determining the term of the restrictive period applicable to the new post-split shares, the time period during which a stockholder has held their existing pre-split shares will be included in the total holding period.
Accounting Matters
The par value per share of the common stock will remain unchanged after the Reverse Stock Split. As a result, on the effective date of the Reverse Stock Split, the stated capital on the balance sheet attributable to the common stock will be reduced proportionally, based on the exchange ratio of the Reverse Stock Split, from its present amount, and the additional paid-in capital account will be credited with the amount by which the stated capital is reduced. The per share common stock net income or loss and net book value will be increased because there will be fewer shares of the common stock outstanding. The company does not anticipate that any other accounting consequences would arise as a result of the Reverse Stock Split.
Other Effects on Outstanding Shares
When the Reverse Stock Split is implemented, the rights and preferences of the outstanding shares of the common stock will remain the same after the Reverse Stock Split. Each share of common stock issued pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split will be fully paid and non-assessable. The Reverse Stock Split would result in some stockholders owning "odd-lots" of less than 100 shares of the common stock. Brokerage commissions and other costs of transactions in odd-lots are generally higher than the costs of transactions in "round-lots" of even multiples of 100 shares.
No Appraisal Rights
Under Nevada Corporations Law, stockholders are not entitled to appraisal rights with respect to the proposed Reverse Stock Split and amendment to our articles of incorporation.
United States Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Reverse Stock Split
The following is a summary of certain material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split to a stockholder (hereinafter a "U.S. stockholder") that is a "United States person," as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). This summary is not intended to be a complete discussion of all possible U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split and is included for general information purposes only. Further, it does not address any state, local or foreign income or other tax consequences. For example, state and local tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split may vary significantly as to each U.S. stockholder, depending upon the state in which such stockholder resides or does business. Also, it does not address the tax consequences to holders that are subject to special tax rules, such as banks, insurance companies, regulated investment companies, personal holding companies, foreign entities, nonresident alien individuals, broker-dealers and tax-exempt entities. In addition, the discussion does not consider the tax treatment of partnerships or other pass-through entities or persons who hold our shares through such entities.
The discussion below is based on the provisions of the U.S. federal income tax law as of the date hereof, which are subject to change retroactively as well as prospectively. This summary also assumes that the shares held by a U.S. stockholder prior to the Reverse Stock Split ("Old Shares") were, and the shares owned by such stockholder immediately after the Reverse Stock Split ("New Shares") will be, held as "capital assets," as defined in the Code, generally property held for investment. The tax treatment of a stockholder may vary depending upon the particular facts and circumstances of such stockholder. The discussion below regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split also is not binding on the Internal Revenue Service or the courts. Accordingly, each stockholder is urged to consult with his, her or its own tax advisor with respect to the tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split.
No gain or loss should be recognized by a U.S. stockholder upon such stockholder's exchange, or deemed exchange, of Old Shares for New Shares pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split. The aggregate tax basis and holding period of the New Shares received in the Reverse Stock Split should be the same as such stockholder's aggregate tax basis and holding period in the Old Shares being exchanged. Special tax basis and holding period rules may apply to holders that acquired different blocks of stock at different prices or at different times. Holders should consult their own tax advisors as to the applicability of these special rules to their particular circumstances.
We are hereby notifying our stockholders of the approval of the Reverse Stock Split and, pursuant to the Exchange Act, filing this Information Statement on Schedule 14C, which will be mailed to all stockholders of record as of the record date established therefore.
TRANSACTION WITH AMAZING ENERGY, INC.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the Board of Directors
Amazing Energy, Inc.
Amarillo, Texas
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Amazing Energy, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company") as of July 31, 2014 and 2013, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, cash flows and changes in stockholders' equity for each of the years then ended. 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 standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatements. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our 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 Amazing Energy, Inc. and its subsidiaries as of July 31, 2014 and 2013, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that Amazing Energy, Inc. will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the company has suffered recurring net losses from operations, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding those matters are described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

AMAZING ENERGY, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED JULY 31, 2014 AND 2013
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1. Nature of Business
Amazing Energy, Inc. (the "Company") was formed in 2010 as a Texas corporation and redomesticated to Nevada in 2011. The Company owns interests in oil and gas properties located in Texas and is engaged primarily in the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas properties and the production and sale of oil and natural gas. Amazing Energy, LLC was formed in December 2008 as a Texas Limited Liability Company. In December of 2010, Amazing Energy, Inc. and Amazing Energy, LLC were combined as commonly controlled entities.
Note 2. Going Concern
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to meet its obligations and continue its operations for its next fiscal year.
At July 31, 2014, the Company had not yet achieved profitable operations, had accumulated losses of $3,406,552 since its inception and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management's plan to address the Company's ability to continue as a going concern includes: (1) obtaining debt or equity funding from private placement or institutional sources; (2) obtain loans from financial institutions, where possible, or (3) participating in joint venture transactions with third parties. Although management believes that it will be able to obtain the necessary funding to allow the Company to remain a going concern through the methods discussed above, there can be no assurances that such methods will prove successful. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Note 3. Significant Accounting Policies
The Company maintains its accounts on the accrual method of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Accounting principles followed and the methods of applying those principles, which materially affect the determination of financial position, results of operations and cash flows are summarized below:
Use of estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and certain assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Basis of presentation – The financial statements are presented on a consolidated basis and include all of the accounts of Amazing Energy, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Amazing Energy LLC. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Risks and uncertainties – The Company's operations are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including financial, operational, technological, and other risks associated with operating an emerging business, including the potential risk of business failure.
Concentration of risks – The Company's cash is placed with a highly rated financial institution, and the Company periodically reviews the credit worthiness of the financial institutions with which it does business. At times, the Company's cash balances are in excess of amounts guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents – The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Income Taxes - We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method. The asset and liability method requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of (i) temporary differences between financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and the basis of these assets and
F-6
AMAZING ENERGY, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED JULY 31, 2014 AND 2013
liabilities for tax purposes and (ii) operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards for tax purposes. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when management concludes that it is more likely than not that a portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized in a future period.
Fair value of financial instruments – Financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accounts payable to related party, and notes payable to related party. The estimated fair values of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accounts payable to related party, and related party payables approximate the carrying amount due to the relatively short maturity of these instruments.
Accounts receivable – Accounts receivable consist of uncollateralized oil and natural gas revenues due under normal trade terms, as well as amounts due from working interest owners of oil and gas properties for their share of expenses paid on their behalf by the Company. Management reviews receivables periodically and reduces the carrying amount by a valuation allowance that reflects management's best estimate of the amount that may not be collectible. As of July 31, 2014 and July 31, 2013, no valuation allowance was considered necessary.
Investment in oil and gas properties – The Company uses the full cost method of accounting for exploration and development activities as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Under this method of accounting, the costs of unsuccessful, as well as successful, exploration and development activities are capitalized as properties and equipment. This includes any internal costs that are directly related to property acquisition, exploration and development activities but does not include any costs related to production, general corporate overhead or similar activities. Gain or loss on the sale or other disposition of oil and gas properties is not recognized, unless the gain or loss would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves.
Oil and gas properties include costs that are excluded from costs being depleted or amortized. Oil and natural gas property costs excluded represent investments in unevaluated properties and include non-producing leasehold, geological, and geophysical costs associated with leasehold or drilling interests and exploration drilling costs. The Company allocates a portion of its acquisition costs to unevaluated properties based on relative value. Costs are transferred to the full cost pool as the properties are evaluated over the life of the reservoir.
Depreciation, depletion, and amortization – The depreciable base for oil and natural gas properties includes the sum of all capitalized costs net of accumulated depreciation, depletion, and amortization ("DD&A"), estimated future development costs and asset retirement costs not included in oil and natural gas properties, less costs excluded from amortization. The depreciable base of oil and natural gas properties is amortized on a unit-of-production method.
Ceiling test – Future production volumes from oil and gas properties are a significant factor in determining the full cost ceiling limitation of capitalized costs. Under the full cost method of accounting, the Company is required to periodically perform a "ceiling test" that determines a limit on the book value of oil and gas properties. If the net capitalized cost of proved oil and gas properties, net of related deferred income taxes, plus the cost of unproved oil and gas properties, exceeds the present value of estimated future net cash flows discounted at 10 percent, net of related tax affects, plus the cost of unproved oil and gas properties, the excess is charged to expense and reflected as additional accumulated DD&A. The ceiling test calculation uses a commodity price assumption, which is based on the unweighted arithmetic average of the price on the first day of each month for each month within the prior 12-month period and excludes future cash outflows related to estimated abandonment costs. The Company did not recognize impairment on its oil and gas properties during the years ended July 31, 2014 and 2013. Due to the volatility of commodity prices, should oil and natural gas prices decline in the future, it is possible that a write-down could occur. Proved reserves are estimated quantities of crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids, which geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions. The independent engineering estimates include only those amounts considered to be proved reserves and do not include additional amounts which may result from new discoveries in the future, or from application of secondary and tertiary recovery processes where facilities are not in place or for which transportation and/or marketing contracts are not in place. Estimated reserves to be developed through secondary or tertiary recovery processes are classified as unevaluated properties.
The determination of oil and gas reserves is a subjective process, and the accuracy of any reserve estimate depends on the quality of available data and the application of engineering and geological interpretation and judgment. Estimates of economically recoverable reserves and future net cash flows depend on a number of variable factors and assumptions that are difficult to predict and may vary considerably from actual results. In particular, reserve estimates for wells with limited or no production history are less reliable than those based on actual production. Subsequent re- evaluation of reserves and cost estimates related to future development of proved oil and gas reserves could result in significant revisions to proved reserves. Other issues, such as changes in regulatory requirements, technological
F-7
AMAZING ENERGY, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED JULY 31, 2014 AND 2013
advances, and other factors, which are difficult to predict, could also affect estimates of proved reserves in the future.
Gains and losses on the sale of oil and gas properties are not generally reflected in income. Sales of less than 100% of the Company's interest in the oil and gas property are treated as a reduction of the capital cost of the field, with no gain or loss recognized, as long as doing so does not significantly affect the unit-of-production depletion rate. Costs of retired equipment, net of salvage value, are usually charged to accumulated depreciation.
Recoverability of Long-Lived Assets -The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 360-10, Property, Plant and Equipment ("ASC 360-10"). ASC 360-10 requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles held and used by the Company be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.
Events relating to recoverability may include significant unfavorable changes in business conditions or a forecasted inability to achieve break-even operating results over an extended period. The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets based upon forecasted undiscounted cash flows. Should impairment in value be indicated, the carrying value of intangible assets would be adjusted, based on estimates of future discounted cash flows resulting from the use and ultimate disposition of the asset. ASC 360-10 also requires assets to be disposed of be reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.
The company did not recognize any impairment of its oil and gas properties during the years ended July 31, 2014 and 2013.
Asset retirement obligations – Accounting principles require that the fair value of a liability for an asset's retirement obligation ("ARO") be recorded in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made, and that the corresponding cost be capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. The liability is accreted to its then-present value each subsequent period, and the capitalized cost is depleted over the useful life of the related asset. Abandonment cost incurred is recorded as a reduction to the ARO liability.
Inherent in the fair value calculation of an ARO are numerous assumptions and judgments including the ultimate settlement amounts, inflation factors, credit-adjusted discount rates, timing of settlement, and changes in the legal, regulatory, environmental, and political environments. To the extent future revisions to these assumptions impact the fair value of the existing ARO liability, a corresponding adjustment is made to the oil and gas property balance.
Asset retirement obligation activity is disclosed in Note 11.
Share-based compensation – Compensation cost for equity awards is based on the fair value of the equity instrument on the date of grant and is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award. Compensation cost for liability awards is based on the fair value of the vested award at the end of each period.
Revenue recognition – The Company predominantly derives its revenue from the sale of produced crude oil and natural gas. Revenue is recorded in the month the product is delivered to the purchaser. At the end of each month, the Company estimates the amount of production delivered to purchasers and the price received. Variances between the Company's estimated revenue and actual payment are recorded in the month the payment is received; however, differences have been insignificant.
Environmental laws and regulations – The Company is subject to extensive federal, state, and local environmental laws and regulations. Environmental expenditures are expensed or capitalized depending on their future economic benefit. The Company believes that it is in compliance with existing laws and regulations.
Recent accounting pronouncements – No effect of recent accounting pronouncements.

Note 9. Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is established to reduce deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the related tax benefits will not be realized. The Company has placed a 100% valuation allowance against the net deferred tax asset because future realization of these assets is not assured.
Authoritative guidance for uncertainty in income taxes requires that the Company recognize the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an examination. Management has reviewed the Company's tax positions and determined there were no uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the consolidated financial statements. The Company's tax returns remain subject to Federal and State tax examinations for all tax years since inception as none of the statutes have expired. Generally, the applicable statutes of limitation are three to four years from their respective filings.

Proved Oil and Gas reserves
Proved oil and gas reserves were estimated by independent petroleum engineers. The reserves were based on the following assumptions:
· | Future revenues were based on an unweighted 12-month average of the first-day-of-the-month price held constant throughout the life of the properties. |
· | Production and development costs were computed using year-end costs assuming no change in present economic conditions. |
· | Future net cash flows were discounted at an annual rate of 10%. |
Reserve estimates are inherently imprecise and these estimates are expected to change as future information becomes available.
Basis of Presentation
2014 and 2013 proved oil and gas reserve quantities are based on estimates prepared by Mire & Associates, Inc., Petroleum Engineering Consultants and Thomas L. McCray independent petroleum engineers, respectively. There are numerous uncertainties in estimating quantities of proved reserves and projecting future rates of production and the timing of development expenditures. These uncertainties are greater for properties which are undeveloped or have a limited production history, such as our properties. The following reserve data represents estimates only and actual reserves may vary substantially from these estimates. All of our proved reserves were in United States as of July 31, 2014 and 2013. Our net quantities of proved developed and undeveloped reserves of crude oil and gas and changes therein are reflected in the table below.

As of July 31, 2014, we had 17 wells drilled with 11 producing and 6 wells shut-in awaiting either workovers or completions.
The proved reserves as of July 31, 2014 represent the reserves that were estimated to be recovered from 17 current wells and 4 wells planned but not yet drilled. All direct offset well locations in this report are proved undeveloped and are based on 10-acre drainage patterns unless current developed completions are estimated to drain an area larger than their volumetric assignment. In this case, the reserves of certain offset locations have been reduced. All locations have a scheduled Queens and/or Grayburg reservoir completion and each of these reservoir completions includes the cost of drilling a single wellbore. All reserves included in this report were estimated using either historical performance or volumetric methods.

The downward revision of previous gas reserves estimates was primarily due reassessment of reservoir mapping based on additional log analysis from drilling.
Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows Relating to Proved Oil and Gas Reserves
The following information was developed utilizing procedures prescribed by Accounting Standards Codification 932-235 (ASC 932-235), "Disclosures about Oil and Gas Producing Activities." The information is based on estimates prepared by independent petroleum engineers. The "standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows" should not be viewed as representative of the current value of our proved oil and gas reserves. It and the other information contained in the following tables may be useful for certain comparative purposes, but should not be solely relied upon in evaluating us or our performance.
In reviewing the information that follows, we believe that the following factors should be taken into account:
· | future costs and sales prices will probably differ from those required to be used in these calculations; |
· | actual production rates for future periods may vary significantly from the rates assumed in the calculations; |
· | a 10% discount rate may not be reasonable relative to risk inherent in realizing future net oil and gas revenues; |
· | and future net revenues may be subject to different rates of income taxation. |
Under the standardized measure, future cash inflows were estimated by applying year-end oil and gas prices applicable to our reserves to the estimated future production of year-end proved reserves. Future cash inflows do not reflect the impact of open hedge positions. Future cash inflows were reduced by estimated future development, abandonment and production costs based on year-end costs in order to arrive at net cash flows before tax. Future

income tax expense has been computed by applying year-end statutory tax rates to aggregate future pre-tax net cash flows reduced by the tax basis of the properties involved and tax carryforwards. Use of a 10% discount rate and year- end prices and costs are required by ASC 932-235.
In general, management does not rely on the following information in making investment and operating decisions. Such decisions are based upon a wide range of factors, including estimates of probable as well as proved reserves and varying price and cost assumptions considered more representative of a range of possible outcomes.
Basis of Presentation
The standardized measure data includes estimates of oil and gas reserve volumes and forecasts of future production rates over the reserve lives. Estimates of future production expenditures, including taxes and future development costs, are based on management's best estimate of such costs assuming a continuation of current economic and operating conditions. No provision is included for depletion, depreciation and amortization of property acquisition costs or indirect costs. Income tax expense has been computed using expected future tax rates and giving effect to tax deductions and credits available, under current laws, and which relate to oil and gas producing activities. The sales prices used in the calculation are the year-end prices of crude oil and natural gas, which as of July 31, 2014 and 2013 were $96.52 and $90.00 per barrel and $4.199 and $4.00 per million cubic foot of gas, respectively. Changes in prices and cost levels, as well as the timing of future development costs, may cause actual results to vary significantly from the data presented. This information is not intended to represent a forecast or fair market value of the Company's oil and gas assets, but does present a standardized disclosure of discounted future net cash flows that would result under the assumptions used.
The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows relating to proved oil and gas reserves for 2014 and 2013 were as follows:

AMAZING ENERGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1. Nature of Business
Amazing Energy, Inc. (the "Company") was formed in 2010 as a Texas corporation and redomesticated to Nevada in 2011. The Company owns interests in oil and gas properties located in Texas and is engaged primarily in the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas properties and the production and sale of oil and natural gas. Amazing Energy, LLC was formed in December 2008 as a Texas Limited Liability Company. In December of 2010, Amazing Energy, Inc. and Amazing Energy, LLC were combined as commonly controlled entities.
Note 2. Going Concern
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to meet its obligations and continue its operations for its next fiscal year.
At October 31, 2014, the Company had not yet achieved profitable operations, had accumulated losses of $3,649,390 since its inception and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management's plan to address the Company's ability to continue as a going concern includes: (1) obtaining debt or equity funding from private placement or institutional sources; (2) obtain loans from financial institutions, where possible, or (3) participating in joint venture transactions with third parties. Although management believes that it will be able to obtain the necessary funding to allow the Company to remain a going concern through the methods discussed above, there can be no assurances that such methods will prove successful. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Note 3. Significant Accounting Policies
The Company maintains its accounts on the accrual method of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Accounting principles followed and the methods of applying those principles, which materially affect the determination of financial position, results of operations and cash flows are summarized below:
Use of estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and certain assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Basis of presentation – These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("US GAAP"). These consolidated financial statements do not contain all of the information required for annual financial statements. Accordingly, they should be read in conjunction with the most recent annual financial statements of Amazing Energy, Inc.
The unaudited financial consolidated statements have been compiled using the significant accounting policies as set out in the audited financial statements of Amazing Energy, Inc. for the year ended July 31, 2014. The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements and notes thereto of Amazing Energy, Inc.
It is management's opinion that these consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary for fair presentation, in all material respects, of the proposed transaction described above in accordance with US GAAP applied on a basis consistent with
F-4
Amazing Energy, Inc.'s accounting policies. No adjustments have been made to reflect potential cost savings that may occur subsequent to completion of the transaction.
Environmental laws and regulations – The Company is subject to extensive federal, state, and local environmental laws and regulations. Environmental expenditures are expensed or capitalized depending on their future economic benefit. The Company believes that it is in compliance with existing laws and regulations.
Recent accounting pronouncements – No effect of recent accounting pronouncements.
Note 4. Oil and Gas Properties
The Company is currently participating in oil and gas exploration activities in Texas. All of the Company's oil and gas properties are located in the United States. Oil and gas properties are stated at cost. During the three months ended October 31, 2014, the company had increased production on a barrel of oil equivalent basis by 106% as compared to the same three month period ended in 2013, with gross production of approximately 4,408 barrels and 21,297 million cubic feet (MCF) during the period.
TEXAS
Pecos County, Texas - The Company has leaseholds within approximately 70,000 contiguous acres in Pecos County, Texas, which lies within the Permian Basin. The property is located in the Northeast region of the County. The Pecos leasehold is comprised of multiple leases, and the Company has working interest in these leases. The Company has drilled 17 wells throughout this property, 11 producing and 6 shut-in. The Company has working interest in this acreage and has capitalized $6,917,279 of cost in evaluated properties. (See Note 8)
Note 5. Related Party Payables and Short-Term Debt
As of October 31, 2014, related party payables consisted of accrued oil and gas drilling expenses billed to Amazing Energy, Inc. by Jilpetco, Inc. The related party payable totals $101,990 and accrued and unpaid interest on related party long-term debt of $160,369. Related party Short-Term Debt as of October 31, 2014 was $673,695. The related party payables and Short-term Debt at July 31, 2014 were $145,176 and $673,695 respectively.
Note 6. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is subject to contingencies as a result of environmental laws and regulations. Present and future environmental laws and regulations applicable to the Company's operations could require substantial capital expenditures or could adversely affect its operations in other ways that cannot be predicted at this time.
