Novo Energies Corporation (“Novo” or the “Company”) is offering the following
securities:
A unit consisting of one share of its common stock, par value $.001 per
share (the “Common Stock”) and one Common Stock Purchase Warrant
for each two shares of Common Stock (the “Warrants”) at a purchase price
of US$0.35 per Unit (the “Units”) (The Common Stock and Warrants are
sometimes hereinafter collectively referred to as “Securities”)
on a strictly confidential basis to “accredited investors” in transactions exempt from
registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Each
Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of our Common Stock for $0.75. Each
Warrant will expire three years from its issue date.
This Confidential Offering Memorandum (the “Memorandum”) relates to the offering
(the “Offering”) by Novo of 8,500,000 Units. The Company expects to hold the initial
closing of this Offering on July 31, 2009 (the “Initial Closing Date”). The Company may
hold additional interim closings after the Initial Closing Date. The Company anticipates
that no additional subscriptions will be accepted after July 31, 2009, although the
Company reserves the right to extend such period by an additional 45 days. In addition,
the Company reserves the right to increase the size of the Offering by a maximum of
50%.

7. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Memorandum (the “Memorandum”) contains forward-looking statements. All
statements other than statements of historical fact included in this Memorandum are
forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, without
limitation, statements regarding our estimate of the sufficiency of our existing capital
resources and our ability to raise additional capital to fund cash requirements for future
operations and statements regarding the uncertainties involved in development and
commercialization process. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these
forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot assure you that such expectations
reflected in these forward-looking statements will prove to have been correct.
When used in this Memorandum, the words “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,”
“believe,” “seek,” “estimate” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-
looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying
words. Because these forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainties, actual
results could differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking
statements for a number of important reasons, including those discussed under “Risk
Factors” in this Memorandum. Among other things, the forward-looking statements
should be read in the context of Novo’s stage of development and the fact that the
Company’s assets will require significant additional development and substantial
additional investment in order to achieve significant market acceptance.
You should read these statements carefully because they discuss our expectations about
our future performance, contain projections of our future operating results and of our
future financial condition, or state other “forward-looking” information. Before you
invest in the Units, you should be aware that the occurrence of any of the contingent
factors described under “Risk Factors” in this Memorandum could substantially harm our
business, results of operations and financial condition. Upon the occurrence of any of
these events you could lose all of your investment.
Under no circumstances should the inclusion of the forward-looking statements be
regarded as a representation or prediction that Novo will achieve or is likely to achieve
any particular results. We cannot guarantee any future results, levels of activity,
performance or achievements. We do not intend to update any of the forward-looking
statements in this Memorandum after the date of this Memorandum. Each prospective
purchaser must make his own evaluation of the merits and risks of the purchase of the
Units.

possible loss by investors of their entire investment. See “Risk Factors.” The Units will be
offered and sold only to prospective investors who: (i) represent, among other things, that they
are acquiring the Units for their own account, for investment only and not with a view toward the

the Securities Act and that their transfer rights with respect to the Units are restricted by the
Securities Act, by applicable securities laws and by the absence of a market for the Units and (ii)
are accredited investors who meet the other suitability standards set forth in the Subscription

prospective investors and the satisfaction of such standards by a prospective investor does not
necessarily mean that the Units are a suitable investment for such prospective investor. The
Company may make or cause to be made such further inquiry and obtain such additional
information, as it deems appropriate with regard to the suitability of prospective investors. The
Company reserves the right to modify the suitability standards and minimum investment with
respect to certain investors, in order to comply with any applicable foreign, state or local laws,
regulations or otherwise.

11. SUMMARY OF THE OFFERING
Novo Energies Corporation: The Company develops green energy solutions while
maintaining a commitment to conserve energy, natural
resources, and help reduce pollutants and wastes. To
achieve our goal, the Company engages in the process of
transforming plastic and tire wastes into liquid fuel or
fuel additives. The Company is developing a novel
method that is easily replicated with the Company’s
knowledge and established in multiple locations
worldwide. The Company utilizes a novel process
involving thermolysis and gasification to generate the
energy required to produce liquid fuel or fuel additives.
The Company’s low capacity equipment can be installed
easily near the waste streams and produce energy close
to market. The business potential is optimized where
there is a minimum of 15 tons/day residual plastic waste
and/or 30 tons/day tire waste.

will be restricted securities under the Securities Act and
applicable state securities laws. In addition, the
Company reserves the right to increase the size of the
Offering by a maximum of 50%.
Terms of Common Stock
Purchase Warrant: Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share
of our Common Stock for $0.75. Each Warrant will be
exercisable immediately and will expire three years from
the date of issue. The Company can cause the Warrant
to be exercised, if the Company’s Common Stock is
trading at an average price over the prior 10 consecutive
days of at least $1.60 per share.
Offering Price: $0.35 per Unit
Number of Shares of Common Stock
Outstanding Prior to Offering: 24,952,338 Shares
Number of Shares of Common Stock
Outstanding After the Offering: 33,092,338 Shares (approximately) not including shares

12. issuance upon exercise of Common Stock Purchase
Warrants.
Minimum Purchase: $5,250 provided, that the Company, in its sole
discretion, may accept subscriptions for less than
$5,250.
Use of Proceeds: The proceeds will be used for, among other things, the
acquisition and development of our assets, including but
not limited to engineering, design, equipment
acquisition, installation, testing and initial operation of
the Company’s Waste to Liquid Technology (WTL)
process. See “Use of Proceeds.”
Closing: The Company expects to hold its initial closing of this
Offering on or about July 31, 2009. The Company may
accept subscriptions at any time or from time to time
after the initial closing. The Company anticipates that
no additional subscriptions will be accepted after July
31, 2009 although the Company reserves the right to
extend such period by an additional 45 days.
Eligible Investors: The Units are being offered exclusively to “accredited
investors” as defined under the Securities Act. The
Company reserves the right to accept or reject any
subscription, in whole or in part, by any prospective
investor.
Subscriptions: Purchasers of Units will be required to execute and
deliver to the Company a Subscription Agreement, a
form of which is attached hereto as Annex 1 (and if the
Purchaser is in the United States or is a “U.S. person” as
defined in Regulation S under the United States
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, a completed
Investor Certification and an executed copy of IRS Form
W-9, forms of which are collectively attached hereto as
Annex 3 and 4 (“collectively Subscription

See “Subscription Procedures” set forth herein. A
subscription tendered to purchase Units is irrevocable.
The Company reserves the right in its sole discretion (x)
to accept or reject any subscription, or any part thereof,
(y) to terminate or withdraw the Offering at any time
and for any reason and (z) to determine the aggregate
4
13. number of Units to be sold within the limits set forth
above.
Risk Factors: An investment in our Units is highly speculative and
involves risks that a prospective investor should
carefully consider before subscribing. As a result of
these risks, as well as other risks inherent in any

realize any return of capital or profits from an
investment in the Company. Prospective investors
should carefully consider, among other factors, the
matters described under the “Risk Factors” section

14. COMPANY DESCRIPTION AND PRODUCT OFFERINGS
Overview
The Company’s subsidiary WTL Renewable Energy Corporation intends to build, own and
operate small capacity thermolysis process lines to convert carboneous residue to fuel oil and/or
fuel additives. Principally, the Company intends to build small local industrial plants designed to
transform residual plastics and tires to valuable liquid Low Carbon Fuel such as diesel, gasoline
and additives. The Company is developing a novel method that can be easily replicated and
established in multiple locations worldwide. The Company’s process requires thermolysis and
gasification equipments linked together to generate the energy required to generate raw material
depolymerisation. The Company’s low capacity equipment can be easily installed near residual
carboneous materials and produce energy close to market. This business potential can be
installed anywhere there is a minimum of 15 tons/day residual plastic waste and/or 30 tons/day
tire waste. The final products are used locally by customers and, accordingly, reduce the
quantity of residual material normally predestine to landfills. Additionally, by planning, building
and operating local plants, a direct result will be the creation of local jobs for operators,
technicians, and engineers and may induce a positive momentum in the actual and future
economy.
Supply
There are more than 10 million tons per year of residual plastics and rubber waste generated
worldwide of which approximately 25% are recycled. The Company anticipates entering into
long-term supply contracts with waste generators including municipalities and commercial
operations. The Company’s forecast based on supply negotiations and evaluation enables the
Company to build at least 12 plants per year on a long term basis.
Target Market
The Company estimates that its target market can be segmented into three distinct groups. The
first group is the commercial transporter ; specifically, recycling companies or municipalities’
waste trucking services that supply the Company’s plants and use the Company’s fuel or fuel
additives in their fleet. The second group is the general public that may purchase the Company’s
fuel-additives directly or from distributors in accordance with local regulations or considerations.
Finally, the third group is for special high octane fuel such as racing fuel and jet fuel. The
Company anticipates that its synthetic fuel or fuel additive will meet international petroleum
standards and will be approved for use in most automotive equipment and machinery.
Strategy
The Company’s strategy is to install small to medium capacity plants (15 tons/day plastic waste
and/or 30 tons/day tire waste) to generate locally 60 to 240 barrels/day of fuel oil or fuel
additives based upon these strategically advantages:
6
15. • Near raw material supply (plastics and tires)
• Close to final products customer (market)
• Small environmental footprint
With this strategy, the Company will reduce at the same time raw material transportation costs
and Green House Gas (GHG) production related to each plant.
WTL Renewable Energy Advantage
The Company’s novel Waste to Liquid Technology (WTL) was developed internally by the
Company’s engineering team. To accomplish a depolymerisation process of polymeric materials
such as plastics and tires, a large quantity of energy has to be transferred from the heating source
to the raw materials. To achieve this transfer, an optimizing thermolysis process is required.
Energy sources from the gasification process will generate a continuous stream of high
temperature gas required to dry raw materials, supply depolymerisation energy, and feed an
electricity generator. This gasification system will be supplied by carboneous residual material
such as wood, cardboard, and declassified plastics. The Company’s energy consumption will be
satisfied through its own production and its plants may be installed in most locations regardless
of the availability of any other energy sources. The Company’s unique process transforms
polymeric materials to liquid energy sources with an overall energy efficiency unbeatable on the
actual market.
USE OF PROCEEDS
The gross proceeds of the Offering are expected to be $2,975,000. The commissions and fees
are estimated to be no more than $300,000 in the aggregate, if any. In addition, the aggregate
expenses of the Offering are expected to be approximately $100,000, including $50,000 in legal
and accounting in connection with the Offering. The proceeds will be used for the acquisition
and development of our assets, including but not limited to, engineering, design, equipment
acquisition, installation, testing and initial operation of the Company’s WTL process and for
general corporate purposes and working capital. It is expected that the proceeds of the sale of
the Units offered will be sufficient to fund the Company’s working capital requirements for
approximately 12 months (prior to any potential borrowings) and will be used as closely as
practicable in the manner set forth below. However, the categories and amounts of costs to
which the proceeds of this Offering are applied, and the amount of time that the proceeds last
may vary due to many factors, including unforeseen development delays, delays in entering into
a business combination, competitive factors, and regulatory review.

16. Offering
Gross Proceeds from this Offering $2,975,000
Use of Proceeds:
Offering Expenses
Finders’ fees (no more than, if any) 297,500
Legal and Accounting Fees 100,000
Acquisition and Development

The amounts set forth above are only an estimate. The Company is unable to predict precisely
what amount will be used for any particular purpose. To the extent the proceeds received are
inadequate in any area of expenditures, supplemental amounts may be drawn from working
capital, if any. Conversely, any amounts not required for proposed expenditures will be retained
and used for working capital. Should the proceeds actually received, if any, be insufficient to
accomplish the purposes set forth above, the Company may be required to seek other sources to
finance the Company’s operations, including individuals and commercial lenders.

17. RISK FACTORS
An investment in the Units involves a high degree of risk. The following factors, in addition to
those discussed in Annex 1 and elsewhere in this Memorandum, should be carefully
considered in evaluating the Company and its business before purchasing the Units offered
hereby.
Prospective purchasers of the Securities should carefully consider the following risk factors and
the other information contained in this Offering before making an investment in the Securities.
Information contained in the Memorandum contains “forward-looking statements” which can be
identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,”
“plan,” “believe,” “seek,” “estimate” and similar expressions or the negative thereof, or other
variations thereon or comparable terminology, or by discussion of strategy (See “COMPANY
DESCRIPTION AND PRODUCT OFFERINGS”). No assurance can be given that the future
results covered by the forward-looking statements will be achieved. The following matters
constitute cautionary statements identifying important factors with respect to such forward-
looking statements, including certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to
vary materially from the future results covered in such forward-looking statements.
Purchasers of our Units may have to bear the risk of their investment for an indefinite period
of time as applicable state and federal securities laws and contractual restrictions applicable to
the purchasers in this Offering impose substantial restrictions on the resale of the Common
Stock or Warrants.
The Common Stock and Warrants offered hereby have not been registered under the Securities
Act or any state securities or blue-sky law and constitute “restricted securities” under applicable
federal securities laws. Absent registration under the Securities Act and any applicable state
securities laws, subscribers for the Units may not sell or otherwise transfer such securities except
pursuant to another exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Because
of such restrictions, an investor in the Units may be required to bear the economic risks of such
investment for an indefinite period of time.
No assurance of a public market for Securities.
Although the Company’s common stock is currently traded on the Bulletin Board, there is no
assurance any public market for the securities of the Company will continue. There is also no
assurance as to the depth or liquidity of any such market or the prices at which holders may be
able to sell the securities. An investment in these Securities may be totally illiquid and investors
may not be able to liquidate their investment readily or at all when they need or desire to sell.
We will need significant additional capital, which we may be unable to obtain.
9
18.
Our capital requirements in connection with our development activities and transition to
commercial operations have been and will continue to be significant. We will require additional
funds to continue research, development and testing, to commercialize our assets. There can be
no assurance that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all.
Volatility of stock prices.
In the event a public market continue for the Securities, market prices will be influenced by
many factors, and will be subject to significant fluctuation in response to variations in operating
results of the Company and other factors such as investor perceptions of the Company, supply
and demand, interest rates, general economic conditions and those specific to the industry,
developments with regard to the Company's activities, future financial condition and
management.
Applicability of low priced stock risk disclosure requirements.
The underlying Shares of the Company may be considered low-priced securities under rules
promulgated under the Exchange Act. Under these rules, Broker-Dealers participating in
transactions in low-priced securities, which by definition are Securities of stock priced at less
than $5.00 per share, must first deliver a risk disclosure document which describes the risks
associated with such stocks, the Broker-Dealer's duties, the customer's rights and remedies, and
certain market and other information, and make a suitability determination approving the
customer for low-priced stock transactions based on the customer's financial situation,
investment experience and objectives. Broker-Dealers must also disclose these restrictions in
writing to the customer and obtain specific written consent of the customer, and provide monthly
account statements to the customer. The likely effect of these restrictions will be a decrease in
the willingness of Broker-Dealers to make a market in the stock, decreased liquidity of the stock,
and increased transaction costs for sales and purchases of the stock as compared to other
securities.
The offering price of the Units was determined arbitrarily.
The offering price of the Units has been arbitrarily determined by the Company and bears no
inherent relationship to the Company’s assets, book value, net worth, cash flow or any other
recognized criteria of value. The Company makes no representation about the value of the Units
being sold in this Offering.
Management will retain significant control of the Company after the Offering.
Our officers and directors retain significant control of the Company. Immediately upon
10
19.
completion of this Offering, executive officers and directors will, in the aggregate, beneficially
own over 50% of our outstanding Common Stock assuming the Company raises $2,975,000 in
this Offering. As a result, these stockholders, if acting together, would be able to significantly
influence all matters requiring approval by our stockholders, including the election of directors
and the approval of mergers or other business combination transactions.
We do not intend to pay dividends.
The Company has never declared or paid any cash dividends on its capital stock. The Company
currently intends to retain any future earnings for funding growth and, therefore, does not expect
to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future.
Our Warrants may have an adverse effect on the market price of the Common Stock and make
it more difficult to effect a business combination.
In connection with this Offering, as part of the Units, we will be issuing Warrants to purchase up
to 4,250,000 shares of common stock. Previous to this Offering, we have outstanding warrants
to purchase 0 shares of common stock. To the extent we issue shares of common stock to effect
a business combination, the potential for the issuance of substantial numbers of additional shares
upon exercise of these Warrants could make us a less attractive acquisition vehicle in the eyes of
a target business as such securities, when exercised, will increase the number of issued and
outstanding shares of our common stock and reduce the value of the shares issued to complete
the business combination. Accordingly, our Warrants may make it more difficult to effectuate a
business combination or increase the cost of the target business. Additionally, the sale, or even
the possibility of sale, of the shares underlying the Warrants could have an adverse effect on the
market price for our securities or on our ability to obtain future public financing. If and to the
extent these Warrants are exercised, you may experience dilution to your holdings.
Shareholders will not have preemptive rights.
Our Certificate of Incorporation denies the holders of Common Stock the right to subscribe for
additional Units of capital stock upon any issuance or increase thereof. As a result, upon the
issuance by the Company of any additional Shares of Common Stock or securities convertible
into Common Stock or preferred stock of the Company subsequent to the Offering, the
stockholders of the Company may be unable to maintain their pro rata ownership of Common
Stock.
We have a limited operating history upon which an evaluation of our prospects can be made.
For that reason, it is difficult to judge our prospects. As a development stage company, we face
all the risks inherent in a new business, including the expenses, difficulties, complications and
11
20.
delays frequently encountered in connection with commencing new operations, including capital
requirements and management’s potential underestimation of initial and ongoing costs. We also
face the risk that we not be able to effectively implement our business plan. If we are not
effective in addressing these risks, we may not develop a viable business or may not operate
profitably. As a start-up company, we expect to incur significant operating losses for the near
future, and there can be no assurance that we will be able to generate significant revenues or that
any revenues generated will be sufficient for us to become profitable or thereafter maintain
profitability.
If our strategy is unsuccessful, we will not be profitable and our stockholders could lose their
investment.
There is no guarantee that our strategy for obtaining or developing our assets will be successful
or that if successfully developed, will result in the Company becoming profitable. If our strategy
is unsuccessful, we may fail to meet our objectives and not realize the revenues or profits from
the business we pursue that may cause the value of the Company to decrease, thereby potentially
causing our stockholders to lose their investment.
We may not be able to effectively control and manage our growth, which would negatively
impact our operations.
If our business and markets grow and develop, it will be necessary for us to finance and manage
expansion in an orderly fashion. We may face challenges in managing and expanding our
business and in integrating any acquired businesses with our own. Such eventualities will
increase demands on our existing management, workforce and facilities. Failure to satisfy
increased demands could interrupt or adversely affect our operations and cause administrative
inefficiencies.
We may be unable to successfully execute any of our identified business opportunities or other
business opportunities that we determine to pursue.
We currently have a restricted corporate infrastructure. In order to pursue business
opportunities, we will need to continue to build our infrastructure and operational capabilities.
Our ability to do any of these successfully could be affected by any one or more of the following
factors, among others, our ability to:
• raise substantial additional capital to fund the implementation of our business plan;
• execute our business strategy;
• manage the expansion of our operations and any acquisitions we may make, which could
result in increased costs, high employee turnover or damage to customer relationships;
• attract and retain qualified personnel;
12
21. • manage our third party relationships effectively; and
• accurately predict and respond to the rapid technological changes in our industry and the
evolving demands of the markets we serve.
Our failure to adequately address any one or more of the above factors could have a significant
impact on our ability to implement our business plan and our ability to pursue other opportunities
that arise.
Intense competition.
The industry is extremely competitive with a substantial portion of the market dominated by a
handful of major participants, and there are substantial barriers to entry. It is likely that one or
more of these well-funded and resourceful players may enter or expand their business, either on
its own or through acquisitions. Although the Company plans to operate in a new market niche,
the Company expects that as its operations increase, and as the market becomes more
established, competition will intensify in the future. The Company believes that its ability to
compete successfully depends on a number of factors, including strategic alliances and market
presence, the quality and efficiency of its infrastructure, and industry and general economic
trends.
Limited liability of management.
The Company has adopted provisions to its Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws which limit the
liability of its Officers and Directors, and provide for indemnification by the Company of its
Officers and Directors to the full extent permitted by Florida corporate law, which generally
provides that its officers and directors shall have no personal liability to the Company or its
stockholders for monetary damages for breaches of their fiduciary duties as directors, except for
breaches of their duties of loyalty, acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve
intentional misconduct or knowing violation of law, acts involving unlawful payment of
dividends or unlawful stock purchases or redemptions, or any transaction from which a director
derives an improper personal benefit. Such provisions substantially limit the shareholder's
ability to hold officers and directors liable for breaches of fiduciary duty, and may require the
Company to indemnify its officers and directors.
Best efforts offering/no firm commitment.
The Company on a "best efforts, no minimum basis", offers the Securities; there is no
underwriter and no firm commitment from anyone to purchase all or any of the Securities
offered. No assurance can be given that all or any of the Securities will be sold. Furthermore,
there is no escrow of funds or other provisions for returning any investors’ funds if less than all
Securities offered hereby are sold. This creates an increased risk to initial investors, in the event
the Company is unable to raise the entire Offering amount, because there is no minimum
Offering amount and funds will be utilized as received by the Company.
13
22.
Insufficiency of funds.
The Company believes that the net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the Securities
offered hereby (assuming that all Securities offered hereby are sold) will not provide the
Company with sufficient capital to expand operation of the Company's business until it can begin
generating enough profits from operations to fund future expansion there from. Many factors
may, however, affect the Company's cash needs, including the Company's possible failure to
generate sufficient revenues from operations (See "Use of Proceeds"). In addition, if less than all
Securities are sold, the Company may not have sufficient capital to fund operations until
sufficient revenues are being generated and may be unable to find suitable financing on terms
acceptable to the Company. This event would significantly increase the risk to those persons
who invest in this Offering (See "Use of Proceeds”).
Broad discretion in application of proceeds.
The Company will have broad discretion in the application of such proceeds.
Forward-looking statements; No assurance of attaining financial results.
Certain business and financial information given herein contains forward-looking statements and
therefore may involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors that may
cause the actual results, performance and achievements of the Company to be materially
different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Some of the
factors that may cause such material differences are set forth as risk factors under this section.
Although the Company intends to amend and/or update this information as changes occur, there
can be no assurance that the information will be completely current in conjunction with the
Company’s actual financial performance during 2009.
Our operations are subject to various government regulations.
We must comply with various government and environmental regulations. We also must comply
with assurances guarding endangered, threatened or candidate fish, wildlife, plants or habitat.
Should we be unable to effectively comply with these regulations, the results of our operations
could be adversely affected.
We have a significant growth factor.
We believe that upon closing of this Offering, we will be entering a period of significant growth.
This growth, if effectuated, will expose our Company to increased competition, greater overhead,
marketing and support costs and other costs associated with entry into expanded markets and
14
23.
solicitation of new customers. To manage growth effectively, we will need to continue to
improve and expand our operational, financial and management information systems and to
expand, train, motivate and manage our employees and sub-contractors. Should we be unable to
manage growth effectively, the results of our operations could be adversely affected.
A failure of our business plan.
While management has developed a business plan, there can be no assurance that said plan will
succeed in whole or part. As a part of the business plan it is necessary for management to have
broad discretion in handling the expenditure of the net proceeds of the Offering because of the
consistently quick changes in the marketplace. However, this broad discretion also creates some
risks.
We currently rely, and will continue to rely, on other parties for several key aspects of our
business and operations.
We rely on other parties for certain portions of our operations and will rely on other parties to
develop key business relationships. Due to the nature of our operations, we are and will continue
to be reliant on others. We currently do not have agreements with all anticipated or potentially
necessary parties, and we may not be able to enter into any such agreements. If we fail to enter
into agreements with any of these parties, our business will suffer and we may never become
profitable.
Our acquisition strategy subjects us to significant risks.
While we have an acquisition strategy, we have not identified any potential acquisition targets
and are not in discussions with respect to any potential acquisition targets. Therefore, the timing,
size and success of our acquisition efforts and the anticipated capital requirements to implement
our strategy cannot be predicted. The success of our acquisition strategy will depend largely on
our ability to identify suitable acquisition candidates and secure any necessary financing, without
diverting management’s attention from the operation of our business. Competition for
acquisition targets could result in increased acquisition prices and fewer businesses available for
investment.
In addition, upon completion of an acquisition, we will still face a number of risks relating to any
business we may acquire, any of which could seriously harm our business, including:
• potential liabilities or contingencies resulting from entry into new geographic and
customer markets;
• potential disputes with the sellers of an acquired business;
• adverse effects on our reported operating results due to accounting charges associated
with acquisitions;
• failure to retain key clients or personnel of an acquired business;
• failure of the acquired business to achieve expected results;
• increased expenses resulting from newly engaged personnel;
15
24. • difficulties related to the integration of an acquired business with our existing
businesses, including difficulties in integrating different corporate cultures and
operating strategies, which could divest management’s attention from our day-to-day
operations; or
• customer dissatisfaction or performance problems with an acquired business could
harm our reputation or harm existing customer relationships and make it more
difficult for us to acquire new customers.
The above-described risks apply to future and completed acquisitions. For all of the above
reasons, our pursuit of an overall acquisition and investment strategy or any individual
acquisition or investment could seriously harm our business.
A portion of the proceeds of this Offering may be used by us to pursue unspecified
acquisitions, which means we make acquisitions, which you would otherwise not have
approved.
The net proceeds of this Offering have been allocated, in part, for use in connection with
unspecified future acquisitions. Since we have not identified any other potential acquisition
candidates, are not in discussions with any potential acquisition candidates and have not
established any minimum criteria for any other acquisitions, you will not have the opportunity to
evaluate the specific terms, merits or risks of any acquisitions.
If we are not able to manage any growth we experience, our business could be seriously
harmed.
The success of our growth strategy will depend, in part, on our ability to monitor and control our
future growth, if any. We anticipate rapid growth over the next 12 months as we expand our
operations. This growth, if it occurs, will place significant demands on our management and
other resources. To maintain this anticipated growth rate, we will need to attract, retain, and
motivate highly trained officers, employees, marketing and other talent. We will also need to
improve our operational, financial and management processes and systems. If we fail to
successfully implement and integrate these systems or if we are unable to expand these systems
to accommodate our growth, we may not have adequate, accurate or timely financial and
operational information, which could seriously harm our business. We may not be able to
accomplish these objectives, which could adversely affect our business.
Reliability of market data.
The Company may have based the market data and certain other information in this
Memorandum on information supplied by governmental agencies, various public
announcements, filings related to other developments and similar projects in the area, and other
third party sources. We have also relied on other sources that we believe to be reliable. The
Company has not independently verified any market information, announcements or filings and
it is possible that they may not be accurate in all material respects. Accordingly, you should not
16
25.
rely too greatly on such data when making your investment decisions and should keep in mind
that market conditions may change at any time for a variety of reasons.
General economic conditions.
The financial success of the Company may be sensitive to adverse changes in general economic
conditions in North America and worldwide, such as recession, inflation, unemployment, and
interest rates. Such changing conditions could reduce demand in the marketplace for the
development of our business. The Company has no control over these changes.
Markets.
The markets for our products are unpredictable and subject to significant cycles due to other
world market and real influences, and there is no assurance a down time in the market will not
adversely affect the Company.
Factors beyond the control of the Company.
Projects for the acquisition and development of the Company’s products are subject to many
factors, which are outside the Company’s control. These factors include general economic
conditions, proximities to utilities and transportation, shortages of labor and materials and skilled
craftsmen and price of materials and competitive products and the regulation by federal and state
governmental authorities.
It is impossible to predict the future results of operations, and we expect some fluctuations in
operations.
As a result of the emerging nature of the markets in which we compete, we are unable to
accurately estimate, or guaranty our future profitability.
Oil and Gas pricing pressures may reduce profitability.
If pressures for oil and gas prices should decrease over time, particularly in the United States and
Canada, there can be no assurance that the prices we can charge for our products will be as
favorable as recent historical prices. In addition, in many international markets, the government
controls the prices of oil and gas. We may be forced to lower prices to compete with other
products. Lower prices and competitors’ attempts to gain market share could adversely affect
our business, financial condition and results of operations.
17
26.
Petroleum production facilities are highly regulated.
The research, development, distribution, marketing and selling of our products is subject to
regulation by governmental regulatory authorities in the United States and other countries.
Failure to comply with regulatory requirements could subject us to regulatory or judicial
enforcement actions, including, but not limited to, seizures, injunctions, civil penalties, criminal
prosecution, refusals to approve new exploration and development and suspensions and
withdrawals of existing approvals.
Lack of revenue history.
The Company was formed in 2007. The Company has never had any revenues. The Company is
not profitable and the business effort is considered to be in an early development stage. The
Company must be regarded as a new or development venture with all of the unforeseen costs,
expenses, problems, risks and difficulties to which such ventures are subject.
No assurance of success or profitability.
There is no assurance that the Company will ever operate profitably. There is no assurance that
it will generate revenues or profits, or that the value of the Company’s Units will be increased
thereby.
Lack of diversification.
Because of the limited financial resources that the Company has, the Company may not be able
to diversify its operations. The Company’s inability to diversify its activities into more than one
area will subject the Company to economic fluctuations and therefore increase the risks
associated with the Company’s operations.
If the Company borrows money using the Company’s Assets as collateral, the Investors could
lose all of their investment, if the collateral was to be foreclosed.
The Company may borrow money secured by the Company’s assets as collateral. The terms of
the loan and the payments required to be made under the loan documents may reduce the return
that the Company may otherwise generate. Should the Company fail to satisfy the terms of any
loan, the Company assets pledged to secure such loan may be at risk to foreclosure or other
similar process to satisfy the amount borrowed for the loan.
Regulators may review this Offering and require that the terms of your investment be modified
in a way that adversely affects your interests.
18
27.
In the event that we undertake to register these Securities, we may be required to modify the
terms of this Offering. Potential modifications may include, but are not limited to, an increase in
the time you must refrain from selling Securities beyond the lock-up period, requiring the lock-
up to be unconditional in nature and/or requiring us to exclude your Securities from a registration
statement. By executing the Subscription Agreement attached hereto, you will acknowledge and
agree that such modifications may occur and you will agree to any necessary modifications.
