Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On August 9, 2010, CAMAC Energy Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its financial results for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2010. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto.
The press release furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto contains certain statements that may include “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). All statements, other than statements of historical fact, are “forward-looking statements,” including statements regarding the Company’s business strategy, plans and objective and statements of non-historical information. These forward-looking statements are often identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “should,” “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates” or similar expressions, and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, they involve assumptions, risks and uncertainties, and these expectations may prove to be incorrect. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of their respective dates. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a variety of factors, including those discussed in the Company’s periodic reports that are filed with and available from the Securities and Exchange Commission. All forward-looking statements attributable to the Company or persons acting on its behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by these factors. Other than as required under the securities laws, the Company does not assume a duty to update these forward-looking statements.
In accordance with General Instruction B.2. of Form 8-K, the information in this Report, including Exhibit 99.1 hereto, shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, and shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document filed under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

On August 6, 2010, the Company entered into a memorandum of understanding (the “MOU”) with CAMAC Energy Holdings Limited, CAMAC International (Nigeria) Limited, and Allied Energy Resources Nigeria Limited (collectively, “CAMAC”).

The MOU is non-binding except as it relates to access to information, exclusivity of negotiation rights until October 31, 2010, and governing jurisdiction.
In accordance with General Instruction B.2. of Form 8-K, the information in this Report shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, and shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document filed under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing. The information set forth in, or in any exhibit to, this Form 8-K shall not be deemed an admission as to the materiality of any information in this report on Form 8-K that is required to be disclosed solely to satisfy the requirements of Regulation FD.
