NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND BUSINESS ORGANIZATION

The consolidated financial statements included herein, which have not been audited pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present a fair statement of the results for the interim periods on a basis consistent with the annual audited financial statements.  All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.  The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for an entire year.  Certain information, accounting policies and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although ERHC Energy Inc. ("ERHC" or the "Company") believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013.

Recent accounting pronouncements

There have been no recently issued accounting pronouncements that have had or are expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company adopted new guidance as of October 1, 2008, related to the measurement of the fair value of certain of its financial assets required to be measured on a recurring basis. Under the new guidance, based on the observability of the inputs used in the valuation techniques, the Company is required to provide the following information according to the fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy ranks the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

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

● Level 2 — Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or, other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

● Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Interest income on cash and cash equivalents is recognized as earned on the accrual basis.

Investments are accounted for as available for sale securities and reported at fair value, determined based on the quoted prices in an active market for identical assets and classified as Level 1 under the ASC 820.

During the six months ended March 31, 2014, the Company's investment in the common stock and warrants of OER, a Canadian oil and gas company that trades on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) decreased in value by $54,834. This decrease in value is included as a decrease in stockholders' equity in accumulated other comprehensive income.

NOTE 3 – OIL AND GAS CONCESSIONS

The following is an analysis of the cost of oil and gas concessions at March 31, 2014 and September 30, 2013:

	March 31, 2014		September 30, 2013
DRSTP concession	$	2,839,500	$	2,839,500
Chad concession		2,800,600		2,800,600
Kenya concession		-		326,073
Pending concessions in other African countries		71,630		71,630
	$	5,711,730	$	6,037,803

In October, 2013, the Company entered into a farm-out agreement with CEPSA Kenya Limited, an affiliate of Compañía Española de Petróleos, S.A.U., an international oil and gas company ("CEPSA").  Under the terms of this agreement, the Company assigned and transferred 55% of its participating interest in Kenya Block 11A to CEPSA.  Pursuant to the agreement, we received farm-in fee of $2,000,000, reimbursement of $2,175,966 of exploration costs incurred, and recovery of our capitalized concession costs of 555,642. In connection with this farm-out, we recognized a gain of $2,724,793, which includes $2,000,000 farm-in fee along with $495,224 exploration costs and $229,569 training and surface fees expensed during the year ended September 30, 2013.

In exchange for the transferred rights, CEPSA will carry the Company's proportionate share of obligations and financial costs under the terms and conditions outlined in the farm-out agreement.  The agreement was approved in January 2014 by the Kenyan Government and from February 2014, CEPSA took over from ERHC as operator under the production sharing contract ("PSC") for Kenya Block 11A.

NOTE 4 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

During the six months ended March 31, 2014, the Company recognized compensation expense of $6,957 related to options granted to the Board of Directors in fiscal year 2012.  As of March 31, 2014, there are 4,150,000 fully-vested options outstanding; none of which are exercisable.  These options have a weighted average remaining term of 7.8 years and an intrinsic value of zero.

During the six months ended March 31, 2014, there were no new warrants granted and none were exercised, cancelled or expired.  As of March 31, 2014, the Company has 13,777,729 outstanding and exercisable warrants with a weighted average exercise price and remaining term of $0.32 per share and 0.96 years, respectively.  As of March 31, 2014, these warrants have an intrinsic value of zero.

NOTE 5 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

COMMITMENTS UNDER PRODUCTION SHARE CONTRACTS

Republic of Kenya Concession Fees and Other Financial Commitments

On June 28, 2012, ERHC entered into a production sharing contract ("PSC") with the Government of the Republic of Kenya for certain land based hydrocarbon exploration and production of Block 11A located in northwestern Kenya.

Beginning February 7, 2014 CEPSA Kenya Limited (CEPSA), an affiliate of Compañía Española de Petróleos, S.A.U, took over from ERHC as operator under the Production Sharing Contract for Block 11A with the Republic of Kenya.  ERHC and CEPSA entered into a Farm-out Agreement on October 7, 2013 (the “Agreement”) wherein ERHC transferred a majority participating interest and the operatorship in the Contract to CEPSA.

11

The following is an analysis of the costs paid or incurred as of March 31, 2014:

a. $310,000 as the entire signature bonus

b. $2,175,966 as costs of airborne geophysical survey and quality control associated with it

c. $459,138 as training and surface fees, as provided in the PSC

d. $68,611 in advisers' and ancillary costs related to the PSC

Republic of Chad Concession Fees and Other Financial Commitments

On June 30, 2011, ERHC entered into a production sharing contract ("PSC") with Chad for hydrocarbon exploration and production.  During the 4^th quarter of 2013, the Ministry of Energy and Petroleum of Chad approved ERHC's application to voluntarily relinquish two of the three Blocks covered by the PSC.  The voluntary relinquishment proportionately reduces ERHC’s total signature-bonus obligations of $6,000,000 under the initial PSC to $2,000,000.

ERHC is also committed under the PSC to:

a. spend at least $15,000,000 over the first five years on a minimum work program and at least an additional $1,000,000 over a further period of up to three years

b. Training and surface fees of approximately $250,000 per calendar year during the first validity period, and lasting for up to eight years.  Fees for subsequent periods will depend on the exploration progress, the acreage retained by ERHC, and total payroll related to the production of oil and gas, should production commence.

12

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

JDZ BLOCKS 5 AND 6

Arbitration and Lawsuit

Since 2008, ERHC has had a pending law suit (in Abuja, Nigeria) and arbitration proceedings (in London, UK) against the JDA and the Governments of Nigeria and Sao Tome and Principe. ERHC wants the London Court of International Arbitration to clarify that ERHC’s minority interests in JDZ Blocks 5 and 6 remain intact. ERHC wants the court in Abuja to restrain the JDA and or the Governments from tampering with ERHC’s rights in the two Blocks pending the determination of the arbitration.

Suspension of Proceedings on the Arbitration and Lawsuit

Proceedings on the suit and the arbitration are currently suspended while the Company pursues amicable settlement with the Governments of Nigeria and Săo Tomé Príncipe.

ROUTINE CLAIMS

From time to time, ERHC may be subject to routine litigation, claims, or disputes in the ordinary course of business.  ERHC intends to defend these matters vigorously.  The Company cannot predict with certainty, however, the outcome or effect of any of the arbitration or litigation specifically described above or any other pending litigation or claims.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

ERHC Energy Inc., a Colorado corporation, ("ERHC" or the "Company") was incorporated in 1986. The Company is in the business of exploration for oil and gas resources in Africa. The Company's business includes working interests in exploration acreage in the Republic of Kenya ("Kenya"), the Republic of Chad ("Chad"), the Joint Development Zone ("JDZ") between the Democratic Republic of Săo Tomé and Príncipe ("STP"), the Federal Republic of Nigeria ("FRN" or "Nigeria"), and the exclusive economic zone of Săo Tomé and Príncipe (the "Exclusive Economic Zone" or "EEZ").

ERHC's strategy in Kenya and Chad is to perform exploration work and further establish the prospectivity of assets acquired through Production Sharing Contracts (PSCs) with the governments of both countries. ERHC intends to do this either in conjunction with partners or alone. ERHC has contracted a farm-out partner for its interests in Kenya, and is currently seeking for partners for its interests in Chad.  ERHC expects that such farm-in arrangements, if entered into, might lower the risk and cost of the exploration programs to ERHC.

13

The Company's strategy in the JDZ and EEZ is to farm out its working interests to well established oil and gas operators for valuable consideration including upfront cash payments and being carried for ERHC's share of the exploration costs.  This has already been done successfully on Blocks 2, 3 and 4 of the JDZ where ERHC has benefited from partnerships with Addax Petroleum and Sinopec Corporation, which have operated some of the license areas on behalf of ERHC.

Apart from its oil and gas exploration activities in Kenya, Chad, the JDZ and the EEZ, ERHC continues to pursue other oil and gas opportunities on the African continent. These opportunities also include the possible acquisition of significant equity stakes in other oil and gas exploration and production companies and the resulting indirect interest in the underlying exploration and production assets of such other companies.

REPUBLIC OF KENYA

ERHC Kenya Acreage

On June 28, 2012, the Company announced that it had signed a Production Sharing Contract (PSC) on Block 11A with the Government of Kenya.  A PSC is an agreement that governs the relationship between ERHC (and any future joint-venture partners) and the Government of Kenya in respect of exploration and production in the Block awarded to the Company.  The PSC details, among other things, the work commitments (including acquisition of data, drilling of wells, social projects, etc.), the time frame for completion of the work commitments, production sharing between the parties and the Government, and how the costs of exploration, development and production will be recovered.

By virtue of the PSC, the Company holds a 90% interest in Block 11A, which encompasses 11,950.06 square kilometers or 2.95 million square acres.  The Government of Kenya has a 10% carried participating interest up to the declaration of commerciality and may thereafter acquire an additional 10% interest in the PSC in which case the total Government participation would rise to 20%.

Circle Oil Limited (www.circleoilandgas.com) ("Circle") acted as finder in ERHC's acquisition of the Block by facilitating ERHC's entry into Kenya, including the introduction of Dr. Peter Thuo, ERHC's Kenya-based geoscientist and technical adviser who provided liaison services in the pursuit of ERHC's application. Circle's involvement provided significant efficiencies, including substantial cost savings, in ERHC's application process.  By virtue of the terms of the business finder's agreement reached between Circle and ERHC, Circle is entitled to receive a 5% payment on the value of the acquisition accruing resulting to ERHC from the application.  Circle has opted to receive this fee in the form of a carried 5% of ERHC's total interest in Block 11A.

In October 2013, ERHC concluded a farm-out agreement with CEPSA. The farm-out agreement was approved by the Government of the Republic of Kenya during the quarter ended March 31, 2014. Under terms of the agreement, ERHC transferred majority  of its interest in Kenya Block 11A as well as operatorship to CEPSA. The entered farm-out agreement includes a carry and other considerations.

14

Kenya Operations Update

Upon successfully meeting all conditions required under the agreement, the farm-out agreement between ERHC and CEPSA went into effect on February 7, 2014, and the transfer of operations to CEPSA was completed at March 31, 2014.  During the month of January 2014, ERHC awarded a contract for a 2D seismic survey of at least 1,000 kilometers in the Block in compliance with the work program to BGP Kenya Limited. The 2D seismic program was designed to cover areas of interest resulting from structural mapping of prospective basins enabled by the airborne Full Tensor Gravity Gradiometry (FTG) survey of Block 11A completed in January 2014.  The FTG survey confirmed that the Lotikipi basin extends into Block 11A and significantly advanced the exploration team’s understanding of the internal structure of the Lotikipi rift basin and enabled the identification of the most prospective areas.  The work on the 2D seismic survey began in April 2014.  Upon completion of the 2D seismic program during the summer of 2014, ERHC and CEPSA will have satisfied the minimum work program requirements for the initial two-year exploration period under terms of the PSC.

Key Provisions of the ERHC's PSC on Block 11A

Exploration Term

The initial exploration period is two years from the effective date of the PSC. The effective date falls ninety days after the execution of the PSC.   The initial exploration period is extendable for two additional two-year exploration periods contingent upon fulfillment of the Company's work program and expenditure obligations under the PSC.

If not renewed, the PSC expires automatically at the end of the initial exploration period or at the end of any additional exploration period unless a commercial discovery is made before the exploration period expires.  In the case of a commercial discovery of crude oil in a relevant development area, the PSC will run for a development period term of 25 years.  In the case of a commercial discovery of natural gas in a relevant development area, the PSC will run for a development period term of 35 years.

Relinquishment and Surrender

The PSC provides for a mandatory surrender of 25% of the original contract area by the end of the initial exploration period to the Government of Kenya and 25% of the remaining contract area by the end of the first additional exploration period. . In the case of a commercial discovery of crude oil in a relevant development area, such development area is excluded from the original contract area for the purpose of surrender calculation.  Furthermore, ERHC may surrender an additional part of the contract area and such voluntary surrender shall be credited against the next surrender obligation.  The PSC will terminate in case of a surrender of the entire contract area.

Signature Bonus and Guarantees

The PSC requires a signature bonus of $310,000 which the Company paid in full as of September 30, 2012.  The PSC also requires the Company, upon entry into each exploration period, to provide a bank guarantee of 50% and a parent company guarantee of 50% of its full minimum work and expenditure obligations under the work program for each exploration period.

Proposed Exploration Work Program

The PSC with the Government of Kenya obliges ERHC to carry out the following minimum work program:

(A) During the Initial Exploration Period of Two (2) Contract Years – Minimum Work and Expenditure Obligations:

● Acquire and interpret 1,000 km2 of gravity and magnetic data (at a minimum cost of US $250,000) and

● Acquire and interpret 1,000 Km/line of 2D seismic data (at a minimum cost of  US $10,000,000)

(B) During the First Additional Exploration Period of Two (2) Contract Years: Minimum Work and Expenditure Obligations to:

● Acquire 750 km2 high density of 3D seismic data (at a minimum cost of US $30,000,000), or

● Drill one (1) well to a minimum depth of 3,000 m (at a minimum cost of US $30,000,000)

(C) During the Second Additional Exploration Period of Two (2) Contract Years: Minimum Work and Expenditure Obligation to drill one (1) well to a minimum depth of 3,000m (with minimum expenditure of US $30,000,000).

However, if the Company satisfactorily completes the minimum work obligations without having spent up to the minimum expenditure, the Company will be deemed to have satisfied its obligations under the PSC.

REPUBLIC OF CHAD

ERHC's Chad Acreage

On July 6, 2011, the Company announced that it had signed a Production Sharing Contract (PSC) on the three oil blocks with the Government of Chad.  A PSC is an agreement that governs the relationship between ERHC (and any future joint-venture partners) and the Government of Chad in respect of exploration and production in the Blocks awarded to the Company.  The initial period of exploration commenced on July 12, 2012 with the publication, in Chadian Government's Gazette Principal, of the Exclusive Exploration Authorization, granted to ERHC by the Government of Chad.

During the year ended September 30, 2013, ERHC offered to novate the PSC by retaining only the BDS2008 Block and relinquishing the Manga and Chari Ouest III Blocks to the Chadian Government for efficiency and for greater ease in carrying out an accelerated work program.  The novation of the PSC has been approved by the Chadian Ministry of Energy and Petroleum. During the quarter ended March 31, 2014, the Company received the arrêté (decree) of the President of Chad giving presidential seal of approval to the Company’s retention of oil exploration Block BDS 2008 and its voluntary relinquishment of the Manga and Chari-Ouest III Blocks. The request was made to enable the Company to focus its resources on the highly prospective Block BDS 2008.

16

Chad Operations Update

As in Kenya, the Company plans to pursue rift margin plays in Chad similar to those that led to recent major discoveries in East Africa.

Focus Areas

ERHC's exploration focus is on Block BDS 2008 which measures 41,800 square kilometers or 10,329,000 acres.  Within this block, two focus areas have been identified where ERHC intends to initially acquire airborne gravity and magnetics data followed by a 2D seismic survey.

Modeling for gravity/magnetic surveys of BDS 2008 was completed during the quarter ended March 31, 2014 and constitutes the basis for ERHC’s request for bids from reputable survey companies for the requisite surveys.  ERHC’s plan is to gather data from an area of 5,000 square kilometers, with two main areas of focus:

     - North of Esso’s Tega and Maku discoveries in the Doseo basin; and

     - East of and on trend with OPIC’s Benoy-1 margin discovery in the Doba basin.

Key Provisions of ERHC's Production Sharing Contract (PSC) in Chad

Exploration Term and Work Program

ERHC has proposed a minimum exploration work program on the basis of the full 8-year exploration period subject to such modification as might be required following the exploration work undertaken during the initial 5-year period of the Exclusive Exploration Authorization.  The minimum expenditure over the initial 5 year period is $15 million. If ERHC elects to continue for a subsequent 3‑year period, an additional minimum expenditure of $1 million will be required.  ERHC would, however, also be obliged to drill an exploratory well.

Cost Recovery and Production Sharing

In the event of a discovery and commercial production from the Company's blocks, the Company and any partners that have participated in the exploration will be entitled to recover up to 70% of the net hydrocarbon production (less any production royalty) as cost of oil, until all the costs for exploration and development have been recovered. Production royalty is 14.25% in the case of crude oil and 5% in the case of natural gas.  No guarantee can be given that there will be production in commercial quantities from the Company's exploration acreage in Chad.

NIGERIA – SAO TOME AND PRINCIPE JOINT DEVELOPMENT ZONE ("JDZ")

Background of the JDZ

In the spring of 2001, Sao Tome & Principe and Nigeria signed a treaty establishing a JDZ for the joint development of petroleum and other resources in the overlapping area of their respective maritime boundaries.  The treaty also established an administrative body, the Joint Development Authority ("JDA"), to administer the treaty and all activities in the JDZ.  Revenues derived from the JDZ will be shared 60:40 between the governments of Nigeria and Săo Tomé & Príncipe, respectively. The JDZ lies approximately 180 kilometers south of Nigeria, in the Gulf of Guinea, one of the most prolific hydrocarbon regions of the world.

17

NIGERIA – SAO TOME AND PRINCIPE JOINT DEVELOPMENT ZONE ("JDZ")

ERHC's Rights in the JDZ

In April 2003, the Company and STP entered into an Option Agreement (the "2003 Option Agreement") in which the Company relinquished significant prior legal rights and financial interests in the Joint Development Zone ("JDZ") in exchange for preferential exploration rights in the JDZ.  Following the exercise of ERHC's rights as set forth in the 2003 Option Agreement, the JDA confirmed the award in 2004 of participating interests ("Original Participating Interest") in each of JDZ Blocks 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 9 of the JDZ during the 2004/5 licensing round conducted by the JDA.  ERHC also jointly bid with internationally recognized technical partners for additional participating interests in the JDZ during the 2004/5 licensing round.  As a result of the joint bid, ERHC won additional participating interests ("Joint Bid Participating Interest") in Blocks 2, 3 and 4.  The following is a tabulation of ERHC's participating interests in the JDZ.

JDZ Block	ERHC Original Participating Interest	ERHC Joint Bid Participating Interest	Participating Interest(s) Assigned	Current ERHC Retained Participating Interest
2	30.00%	35.00%	43.00%	22.00%
3	20.00%	5.00%	15.00%	10.00%
4	25.00%	35.00%	40.50%	19.50%
5	15.00%	-	-	15.00% (in arbitration)
6	15.00%	-	-	15.00% (in arbitration )
9	20.00%	-	-	20.00%

ERHC's Participating Agreements in the JDZ

The following are the particulars of the Participating Agreements by which ERHC assigned some of its participating interests in JDZ Blocks 2, 3 and 4 to technical partners so that the technical partners would operate the Blocks and carry ERHC's proportionate share of costs in the Blocks until production, if any, commenced from the Blocks:

Date of Participation Agreement	Party(ies) to the Participation Agreement	Participating Interest(s) Assigned			Participating Interest Assigned Price
JDZ Block 2 - Participation Agreement - ERHC Retained Interest of 22.00%
March 2, 2006	Sinopec International Petroleum Exploration Production Co. Nigeria Ltd - a subsidiary of Sinopec International Petroleum and Production Corporation		28.67	%	$	13,600,000
	Addax Energy Nigeria Limited - an Addax Petroleum Corporation subsidiary		14.33	%	$	6,800,000
JDZ Block 3 - Participation Agreement - ERHC Retained Interest of 10.00%
February 15, 2006	Addax Petroleum Resources Nigeria Limited - a subsidiary of Addax Petroleum Corporation		15.00	%	$	7,500,000
JDZ Block 4 - Participation Agreement - ERHC Retained Interest of 19.50%
November 15, 2005	Addax Petroleum Nigeria (Offshore 2) Limited - a subsidiary of Addax Petroleum Corporation		40.50	%	$	18,000,000

18

Under the terms of the Participation Agreements Sinopec and Addax agreed to pay all of ERHC's future costs for petroleum operations ("the carried costs") in respect of ERHC's retained interests in the blocks.  Additionally, Sinopec and Addax are entitled to 100% of ERHC's allocation of cost oil plus up to 50% of ERHC's allocation of profit oil from the retained interests on individual blocks until Sinopec and Addax Sub recover 100% of ERHC's carried costs.  On or about October 2, 2009, Sinopec International Petroleum Exploration and Production Corporation acquired all of the outstanding shares of Addax Petroleum Corporation.

ERHC's JDZ Acreage

ERHC has working interests in six of the nine Blocks in the JDZ, as follows:

● JDZ Block 2:  22.0%

● JDZ Block 3:  10.0%

● JDZ Block 4:  19.5%

● JDZ Block 5:  15.0% (in arbitration)

● JDZ Block 6:  15.0% (in arbitration)

● JDZ Block 9:  20.0%

The working interest percentages represent ERHC's share of all the hydrocarbon production from the blocks and obligates ERHC to pay a corresponding percentage of the costs of drilling, production and operating the blocks.  Through Exploration Phase 1 in blocks 2, 3 and 4, these costs have been carried by the operators.  The operators can only recover their costs by carrying ERHC until production whereupon the operators will recover their costs from production revenues.

In 2009, Sinopec and Addax, ERHC's technical partners and operators in Blocks 2, 3 and 4 undertook an exploratory drilling campaign across the three blocks that was completed in January 2010.

Biogenic gas was discovered in each block and discussions continue between the Joint Development Authority and the parties, including ERHC, that hold interests in JDZ Blocks 2, 3 and 4, regarding drilling results. The meetings with the JDA are aimed at reaching a definitive agreement on how to proceed with the next stage of exploration in the Blocks following the expiration of Exploration Phase I in March 2012.

JDZ Operations Update

The JDZ partnership is currently assessing the data for possible new exploration play concepts in this area.

SAO TOME AND PRINCIPE EXCLUSIVE ECONOMIC ZONE ("EEZ")

Overview of ERHC's EEZ Blocks

The Săo Tomé and Príncipe EEZ is delineated over an expanse of waters offshore Sao Tome and Principe that covers approximately 160,000 square kilometers. In terms of hydrocarbon exploration and exploitation, the EEZ is a frontier region that sits south of the Niger Delta and west of the Gabon salt basin, retaining similarities with each of those prolific hydrocarbon regions.  The regional seismic database comprises approximately 12,000 kilometers of seismic data. Interpretation of that seismic data shows numerous structures in the EEZ that have similar characteristics to known hydrocarbon accumulations in the area.

ERHC's Rights in the EEZ

Under a 2001 agreement with the Government of Sao Tome and Principe ("STP"), ERHC was vested with the rights to participate in exploration and production activities in the EEZ.  These rights included (a) the right to receive up to 100% of two blocks of ERHC's choice and (b) the option to acquire up to a 15% paid working interest in each of two additional blocks of ERHC's choice in the EEZ.  In 2010, ERHC exercised its rights to receive up to 100% of two blocks of ERHC's choice in the EEZ and was duly awarded Blocks 4 and 11 of the EEZ by the Government of STP.

EEZ Block 4 is 5,808 square kilometers, situated directly east of the island of Príncipe.

EEZ Block 11 totals 8,941 square kilometers, situated directly east of the island of Săo Tomé and abuts the territorial waters of Gabon. The southern area of the EEZ, where EEZ Block 11 is situated, contains parts of the Ascension and Fang Fracture Zones.

ERHC will decide whether to take up the option to acquire up to a 15% paid working interest in each of two additional blocks of the EEZ when called upon to exercise the option by the Government of STP in accordance with the agreements which provide for the rights and option.

19

PSC Negotiations for the EEZ

A PSC is an agreement that governs the relationship between the Company (and its joint venture partners) and the Government of Săo Tomé and Príncipe in respect of exploration and production in any Block awarded to the Company. The PSC spells out, among other things, the work commitments (including acquisition of data, drilling of wells, social projects, etc.), the time frames for accomplishing the work commitments, how production will be shared between the parties and the government, and how the costs of exploration, development and production will be recovered.

Negotiations for a PSC between ERHC and the National Petroleum Agency of Săo Tomé and Príncipe (ANP-STP) opened on November 14, 2011 in Sao Tome. Good progress has been made in several rounds of negotiations since then but the Company expects that it will take more rounds to conclude the PSCs. Both ERHC and the ANP-STP are currently conducting legal reviews of the draft PSCs for EEZ Blocks 4 and 11, the significant terms of which have been finalized by the parties.  ERHC's management is looking to secure PSCs for the EEZ Blocks that will be attractive to potential joint venture partners.

EEZ Operations Update

ERHC's and the ANP-STP's efforts to generate interest in the EEZ as a whole have increased interest in ERHC's EEZ Blocks among International Oil Operating Companies (IOCs).  ERHC's negotiations with several IOCs about possible partnerships on Block 11 are continuing.  In March 2014, ERHC and ANP-STP began discussing potential signing dates of the Production Sharing Contracts for the Blocks.

INVESTMENT IN OANDO ENERGY RESOURCES (FORMERLY EXILE RESOURCES)

During the three months ended June 30, 2011, ERHC invested $1,350,000 in Exile Resources Inc, a company listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (Ventures Exchange) stock in open market purchases.  ERHC's intention was to gain an indirect interest in Exile's underlying oil and gas exploration and production assets as well as the ability to participate in Exile's decision making in respect of those assets.  ERHC was particularly interested in Exile's carried interest in the proven Akepo field in the Niger Delta.

In July 2011, Oando Petroleum and Exploration Company ("Oando Petroleum") commenced a reverse takeover ("RTO") of Exile Resources.  In July 2012, Exile announced the completion of the RTO by Oando Petroleum and the change of name of the resultant company to Oando Energy Resources Inc, ("Oando Energy"). It also announced the listing of the company's shares under the symbol "OER" on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) and commencement of trading in the shares on the TSX from July 30, 2012.

As a result of the RTO, ERHC now holds 418,889 shares in the common stock of Oando Energy.  ERHC also holds warrants for 418,889 common shares exercisable within 24 months of the closing of the RTO at Cdn$2.00 per share.

CURRENT PLANS FOR OPERATIONS

ERHC's principal assets are its interests in rights for exploration for hydrocarbons in Kenya, Chad, the JDZ and the EEZ. ERHC has no current sources of income from its operations. The Company plans to develop its business by the acquisition of other assets which may include revenue-producing assets in diverse geographical areas and the forging of strategic, new business partnerships and alliances.  ERHC cannot currently predict the outcome of negotiations for acquisitions, or, if successful, their impact on the Company's operations.

PLANS FOR FUNDING OF POTENTIAL ACQUISITIONS

ERHC's future plans will depend on the Company's ability to attract new funding.  The Company is implementing a series of steps to fund the geophysical work, including magnetic/gravity and seismic surveys, prior to securing potential farm-out on Chad acreage.  Said funding steps include the issuance of a series of convertible notes, which the Company is planning to conduct during the third quarter of 2014, and continue to search for potential partners.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The process of preparing financial statements requires that the Company make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of liabilities and stockholders' equity at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Such estimates primarily relate to realization of oil and gas concession assets and the valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets as of the date of the financial statements; accordingly, actual results may differ from estimated amounts. ERHC's estimates and assumptions are based on current facts, historical experience and various other factors we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. The most significant estimates with regard to the financial statements included with this report relate to realization of oil and gas concession assets and the valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets.

These estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and, as adjustments become necessary, they are reported in earnings in the periods in which they become known.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In preparing its financial statements and filings, the company considers recent guidance issued related to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The Company believes that there has been no new guidance since its most recent annual report on Form 10-K that have a significant impact on its financial statements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three Months Ended March 31, 2014 Compared with the Three Months Ended March 31, 2013

General and administrative expenses varied slightly from $839,723 in the three months ended March 31, 2013 to $940,910 in the three months ended March 31, 2014.  The increase was as a result of increased activities on the work programs.

During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company had a net gain of $1,723,555 compared with a net loss of $878,481 for the three months ended March 31, 2013.  Net gain resulted from recognition of income on Kenya farm-out contract with CEPSA during the three months ended March 31, 2014.

Six Months Ended March 31, 2014 Compared with the Six Months Ended March 31, 2013

General and administrative expenses increased from $1,857,313 in the six months ended March 31, 2013 to $1,914,488 in the six months ended March 31, 2014.  It was due to increased activities  on the work programs.

During the six months ended March 31, 2014, the Company had a net gain of $554,205 compared with a net loss of $1,920,669 for the six months ended March 31, 2013.  Net gain resulted from recognition of income on Kenya farm-out contract with CEPSA during the three months ended March 31, 2014.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of March 31, 2014, the Company had $3,374,025 in cash and cash equivalents, and a working capital of $3,952,970.  Management believes that this cash position should be sufficient to support the Company's working capital requirements for more than 12 months.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

At March 31, 2014, the Company had no off-balance sheet arrangements.

21

DEBT FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS

At March 31, 2014, the Company had a total of $303,178 in short term obligations, including:

● $100,500 in accrued executive bonuses related to acquisition of Chadian Blocks, deferred until the Blocks are monetized,

● $84,428 of accounts payable,

● $43,437 in accrued directors’ compensation,

● $30,063 in deferred office rent,

● $28,750 in accrued professional fees, and

● $16,000 in accrued officer salary.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The Company's current focus is to exploit its primary assets, which are rights to working interests oil and gas exploration blocks in Kenya, Chad, the JDZ and EEZ under agreements with the  governments of Kenya, Chad, the JDA and the government of STP respectively.  The Company intends to continue to form relationships with other oil and gas companies with operational, technical and financial capabilities, to partner with the Company in leveraging its interests.  The Company currently has no other operations.

As of March 31, 2014, all the Company's exploration and production acreages were located outside the United States.  The Company's primary assets are agreements with Kenya, Chad, STP and the JDA which provide ERHC with rights to participate in exploration and production activities in Kenya, Chad, the EEZ and the JDZ in Africa.  This geographic area of interest is controlled by foreign governments that have historically experienced volatility of which is out of management's control. The Company's operations and its ability to exploit its interests in the agreements in this area may be impacted by this circumstance.

The future success of the Company's international operations may also be adversely affected by risks associated with international activities that include financial, economic and labor conditions, political instability, risk of war, expropriation, renegotiation or modification of existing contracts, tax laws (including host-country import-export, excise and income taxes and United States taxes on foreign subsidiaries) and changes in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to the local currencies in which future oil and gas producing activities may be denominated.  Furthermore, changes in exchange rates may adversely affect the Company's future results of operations and financial condition.

Market risks relating to the Company's operations result primarily from changes in interest rates as well as credit risk concentrations.  The Company's interest expense is generally not sensitive to changes in the general level of interest rates in the United States, particularly because a substantial majority of its indebtedness is at fixed rates.

The Company holds no derivative financial or commodity instruments.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company's  Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer participated in an evaluation by management regarding the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of March 31, 2014.  Based on their participation in that evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer concluded that as of March 31, 2014, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective and ensure that the information required to be disclosed in the reports that ERHC files or submits under the Exchange Act, is accumulated and communicated to our management; including our principal executive and principal financial officers, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure under the Exchange Act. ERHC officers also concluded on March 31, 2014 that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms.

There was no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2014 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

JDZ BLOCKS 5 AND 6

Arbitration and Lawsuit

Since 2008, ERHC has had a pending law suit (in Abuja, Nigeria) and arbitration proceedings (in London, UK) against the JDA and the Governments of Nigeria and Sao Tome and Principe. ERHC wants the London Court of International Arbitration to clarify that ERHC’s minority interests in JDZ Blocks 5 and 6 remain intact. ERHC wants the court in Abuja to restrain the JDA and or the Governments from tampering with ERHC’s rights in the two Blocks pending the determination of the arbitration.

Suspension of Proceedings on the Arbitration and Lawsuit

Proceedings on the suit and the arbitration are currently suspended while the Company pursues amicable settlement with the Governments of Nigeria and Săo Tomé Príncipe.

ROUTINE CLAIMS AND OTHER MATTERS

From time to time, ERHC may be subject to routine litigation, claims, or disputes in the ordinary course of business.  ERHC intends to defend these matters vigorously.  The Company cannot predict with certainty, however, the outcome or effect of any of the arbitration or litigation specifically described above or any other pending litigation or claims.
