BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT:

Siberian Energy Group Inc. was formed as a Nevada corporation on August 13, 1997, as Advanced Rehab Technology Corporation. Subsequently, on March 9, 2001, the Company changed its name to Talking Cards, Inc.; on February 12, 2002, the Company changed its name to Oysterking Incorporated; on December 3, 2002, the Company changed its name to 17388 Corporation Inc., at which point the controlling interest of the Company was sold and a new board of directors was appointed; on May 5, 2003, the Company changed its name to Trans Energy Group Inc.; and on December 3, 2003, the Company changed its name to Siberian Energy Group Inc.

On September 17, 1999, the Company affected a 1-for-30 reverse stock split. A subsequent 3-for-1 forward split was consummated on October 2, 2000 and a further 1:2 reverse stock split was affected on May 2, 2005 (collectively the “Stock Splits”). All share amounts subsequently listed are retroactively adjusted to reflect these stock splits unless otherwise provided.

In the spring of 2003, a majority of the Company's shares were purchased by new shareholders who stepped into the management of the Company and defined its new business direction as an oil and gas exploration company.

On May 9, 2003, the Company entered into an Acquisition Agreement (the "Acquisition Agreement") by and among the Company, Zaural Neftegaz, a Russian corporation ("ZNG"), the shareholders of ZNG and Oleg Zhuravlev, President of ZNG, and a former Director of the Company. Pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement, the Company acquired a 51% interest in ZNG by issuing to ZNG 2,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock. In June 2004, the Company purchased the remaining 49% of ZNG in exchange for 6,900,000 shares of the Company's common stock, making ZNG a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company had no affiliation with ZNG prior to the acquisition in May 2003.
-4-

Currently, the operating activities of ZNG are carried out through the Joint Venture Shareholders' Agreement ("Joint Venture") entered into on October 14, 2005 with Baltic Petroleum (E&P) Limited ("BP" or "Baltic") and Zauralneftegaz Limited, the joint venture company ("ZNG, Ltd."), as contemplated by the Option Agreement, as amended (the "Option"). The Company closed the Joint Venture and transferred 100% of the outstanding stock of ZNG to ZNG, Ltd. in connection with the terms and conditions of the Joint Venture. As a result of such transfer, the Company holds 50% of the outstanding stock of ZNG, Ltd., which holds 100% of the outstanding stock of the Company's former wholly-owned subsidiary, ZNG.  ZNG, Ltd. operates through ZNG and is engaged in the exploration and development of, production and sale of, oil and gas assets in the Western Siberian region of the Russian Federation and the former Soviet Union.

On December 13, 2006, we entered into an Interest Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with Key Brokerage LLC ("Key Brokerage"), pursuant to which we purchased 100% of the stock of Kondaneftegaz LLC ("KNG"), a Russian limited liability company, which was created in 2004 for the purpose of oil and gas exploration in the Khanty-Mansiysk district of Western Siberia, Russia. In addition to acquiring 100% of the stock of KNG, we received the geological information package on the Karabashski zone of Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous district (Tuymen region of Russian Federation) ("Geological Data").

On or about September 30, 2008, we entered into an Agreement of Purchase and Sale with Limited Liability Company Neftebitum, a Russian limited liability company, and two Russian individuals, pursuant to which we sold fifty-six percent (56%) of the ownership interest of KNG, as described in greater detail below.

All dollar amounts used throughout this Report are in United States dollars, unless otherwise stated. All amounts in Canadian dollars used throughout this Report are preceded by CDN, for example CDN $500, is referring to $500 Canadian dollars.
 
BUSINESS OPERATIONS:

We are a development stage company which is seeking opportunities for investment in and/or acquisition of small to medium companies in Russia, specifically in the oil and gas industry.

We currently hold investments in ZNG, Ltd. and KNG.  Both companies are operating in the Western Siberia region of Russia and are involved in oil and gas exploration, provided however, as described below, ZNG, Ltd. has advised us that it will no longer undertake any further exploration activities in Western Siberia.

Moving forward the Company plans to focus on those assets that involve less exploration risk and is also actively seeking and negotiating the acquisition of production or close-to-production assets in Russia and countries of the former Soviet Union; however, the Company has not entered into any definitive agreements to date, and there can be no assurance that any such agreements will be entered into on favorable terms, if at all.

Description of KNG

KNG was created in 2004 for the purpose of oil and gas exploration in the Khanty-Mansiysk district of Western Siberia, Russia. In October 2007, KNG was awarded two oil and gas exploration licenses in Khanty-Mansiysk region in Western Siberia, Russia for the Karabashsky-61 and Karabashsky-67 blocks located in the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Region, Russian Federation.  The license areas together cover 166,000 acres and are situated in the territory of the Urals oil and gas bearing area.  KNG also has eight more outstanding applications for exploration licenses filed with the Russian authorities, which auctions have not occurred to date.
-5-

The right to use the subsurface resources of the Karabashsky-61 and Karabashky-67 Fields is granted for the term of validity of the license (five (5) years), from the date of its state registration (October 22, 2007), subject to the completion of certain exploration activities on the license blocks. The term of use of the subsurface resources can be extended to finish exploration and estimation of deposit or for liquidation work, if the terms of usage of the subsurface resources are not breached.

KNG has prepared and coordinated with the Russian authorities an exploration works program on the Karabashski-61 and Karabashski-67 license areas to stay in compliance with the license agreements’ requirements described below in further detail:
 
 
o
to begin 2D seismic works during the 2009-2010 fieldwork season and to perform not less than 176.26 linear kilometers of seismic profiles on Karabashky-61 and 158 linear kilometers on Karabashky-67 (minimal density of the profile not less than 1 linear kilometer per 1 square kilometer of license area), and
     
 
o
no later than 2011, to start drilling an exploratory well and to complete not less than 2 exploratory wells by April 1, 2012.

As of December 31, 2009 KNG has re-interpreted the existing seismic data from prior studies and updated its program of seismic works. 2D seismic studies are currently planned to start in the fourth quarter of 2010.

On or about September 30, 2008, we entered into an Agreement of Purchase and Sale with Limited Liability Company Neftebitum, a Russian limited liability company (“Neftebitum”), Sergey V. Prokopiev, an individual and Russian citizen, and Oleg G. Shelepov, an individual and Russian citizen (collectively, the “Purchasers” and the “Sale Agreement”).  The Company’s Board of Directors approved and ratified the Company’s entry into the Sale Agreement and the transactions contemplated therein on or about October 30, 2008.  Pursuant to the Sale Agreement, the Company agreed to sell to the Purchasers an aggregate of fifty-six percent (56%) of the registered capital of KNG for aggregate consideration of 5,600 Russian Rubles (approximately $223).  Neftebitum agreed to purchase a 51% interest for total consideration of 5,100 Russian Rubles (approximately $203) and Mr. Prokopiev and Mr. Shelepov agreed to each purchase a 2.5% interest for consideration of 250 Russian Rubles each (approximately $10).

Pursuant to the Sale Agreement, the Sellers are obligated to maintain KNG’s main priority of performing geological studies and exploring for hydrocarbon deposits in the Karabashsky-61 and Karabashsky-67 blocks (the “Blocks”).  Further, the Purchasers are obligated to provide financing, by way of direct financing or third-party loans, in the amounts necessary to comply with the licensing agreements for the Blocks.  The Company’s and the Purchasers’ relationship is to be regulated by the Operating Agreement (as described below), which was entered into in connection with the Sale Agreement.  Lastly, the Sale Agreement provides that in connection with Neftebitum obtaining a majority interest in KNG, it is obligated to be a guarantor and accept joint responsibility with KNG for repayment of any financing the Purchasers obtain for KNG.

-6-

On or about November 5, 2008, and in connection with their entry into the Sale Agreement, Neftebitum, the Company and KNG entered into an Operating Agreement that defines the rights and responsibilities of the parties (the “Operating Agreement”).  Pursuant to the Operating Agreement, Neftebitum is designated the exclusive Operator of KNG and all of its current and future mineral claims and has the right to appoint all members of KNG’s management.  As Operator, Neftebitum has exclusive control of all technical, management, operational and associated matters involving KNG and the Blocks and any potential hydrocarbon exploration and production licenses (the “Operations”).  Neftebitum must manage and conduct the Operations by itself, its agents, independent contractors and/or servants in general accordance with standard oil and gas field practices.  Neftebitum must use all reasonable endeavors to:

 
·
Prepare annual programs and budgets pursuant to the Operating Agreement and the licensing agreements for the Blocks;

 
·
Begin 2D seismic works on the Blocks during the 2009-2010 fieldwork season and perform not less than 176.26 linear kilometers of seismic profiles on the Karabashky-61 Block and not less than 158 linear kilometers of seismic works on the Karabashky-67 Block;

 
·
Start drilling an exploratory well no later than 2011, and complete no less than 2 exploratory wells by April 1, 2012;

 
·
Provide adequate financing to carry out KNG’s planned activities; and

 
·
Supervise implementation of all programs and budgets and provide written progress reports on a quarterly basis relating to KNG’s activities and programs.

Further, as Operator, Neftebitum may enter into and negotiate contracts on behalf of KNG and the Company and represent KNG or the Company in all dealings with governmental and regulatory bodies.  Neftebitum must guarantee any financial obligations entered into on KNG’s behalf.  Neftebitum may be reimbursed for expenses incurred in its role as Operator, and if KNG has inadequate resources to reimburse such expenses, these unreimbursed expenses may be accounted for at the time of the distribution of profits from KNG’s operations, if any.  Neftebitum, however, will not charge Operator’s management fees in connection with its role as Operator.  Additionally, the Company made available to the Operator all of the geological data, to be used in the program of geological studies in the region and will not charge fees for the use of geological data it provides.  Neftebitum must also use its best efforts to maintain insurance for the Company.  Lastly, Neftebitum’s responsibilities as Operator under the Operating Agreement may not be assigned or transferred.

As of the date of this filing, Neftebitum has raised approximately $155,000 through the sale of debt to pay for the first stage of the seismic project and the government fees for the subsoil use.

As of December 31, 2009, the Company owned a 44% interest in KNG. Effective September 30, 2008, the Company's 44% investment in KNG is recorded on the equity method of accounting. The operations of KNG prior to September 30, 2008 are included in the consolidated accounts of the Company in the accompanying financial statements.

After careful consideration of the current financial position of KNG, the Company has applied an impairment charge to the value of investment in KNG which resulted in carrying it at zero value.

Description of ZNG

ZNG has been involved in the oil and gas research activities in the Kurgan region of the Russian Federation. During 2003-2008 it has completed seismic studies and a drilling program in the Kurgan region of Siberia, Russia. The Company believes ZNG, Ltd. has created value through the geological results of the two exploratory wells and other data gathered in the area and ZNG, Ltd. is considering its options with regard to realizing this value in connection with a potential direct sale of geophysical and seismic data to a third party operating in the area.

Between 2003 and 2007, ZNG carried out extensive seismic and gas seismotomographic studies on its 4 licensed blocks acquired in 2003 through a government tender (which have since expired): the Privolny, Mokrousovsky, West-Suersky and Orlovo-Pashkovsky blocks, and drilled 2 exploratory wells on the Privolny and Mokrousovsky blocks. Based on the interpretation of seismic and seismotomographic surveys and analysis of samples from the wells, ZNG prepared a comprehensive analysis of geological resources of the Kurgan region.  Both the Privolny-1 and Mokrousovsky-1 studies confirmed the presence of hydrocarbons and contributed greatly to the understanding of geological resources in the region. However, a substantial amount of further exploration studies and work is required before a conclusion on the future potential of the blocks can be drawn. Upon the expiration of the license terms of these blocks in March 2008, ZNG kept the preferential right to re-apply for the licenses.
-7-

The Company’s investment in the Joint Venture is recorded on the equity method of accounting.  Since cumulative losses of Joint Venture exceed the Company’s investment, the investment asset is carried at zero value as of and through December 31, 2009.

As of the date of this filing, Baltic has advised us that Baltic and as a result, ZNG, has withdrawn from any further exploration activities in the Kurgan region and that they will not expend any further resources on such activities moving forward.  Baltic has however advised us that they believe they may be able to sell ZNG’s previously prepared seismic and geological studies and data in the future, assuming other exploration companies in the area desire to purchase such information, of which there is no assurance.
  
Joint Venture

The operations of the Joint Venture were funded via loans provided to ZNG, Ltd. and ZNG by Caspian Finance Limited ("Caspian"), a financing company wholly-owned by Baltic.  Loans are guaranteed by ZNG, Ltd.’s holdings in ZNG.  As of December 31, 2009, the total funding provided to ZNG, Ltd. and ZNG by Baltic was equal to approximately $23.5 million plus accrued interest of approximately $5 million. The loans are not dilutive to the Company's ownership in ZNG.
  
ZNG Loans

To date, Caspian has provided ZNG various loans, as described below:

 
·
On November 9, 2005, ZNG entered into a New Loan with Caspian (the "New Loan"). Under the loan agreement, Caspian agreed to provide a loan of up to $6,874,325 representing the assumed commitment under a prior loan and a new commitment, to be used for operations in the Kurgan region in 2005 and through the first half of 2006. The New Loan is available to ZNG until the sixth anniversary of the date of the New Loan, or November 9, 2011 (the "Term");
 
 
·
On January 16, 2007, ZNG and Caspian entered into a Deed of Variation of the Loan Agreement, whereby, inter alia, the Lender agreed to make available to ZNG an additional loan facility of US$2,000,000;

 
·
On April 23, 2007, ZNG and Caspian further entered into a Deed of Variation of the Loan Agreement whereby, inter alia, the Lender agreed to make available to ZNG an additional loan facility of US$300,000; and
 
 
·
On June 18, 2007, ZNG and Caspian entered into another Deed of Variation to the Loan Agreement, whereby Caspian agreed to make available to ZNG an additional loan facility of US$7,359,190 (the “June 2007 Deed of Variation”).

Funding to ZNG, Ltd. is provided by Caspian on the same terms as to ZNG, through the mechanism of intercompany billing within Baltic and certain companies affiliated with Baltic. As of December 31, 2009, the total loan to ZNG, Ltd. from Caspian totaled $10,235,000, including $9,380,000 of principal and accrued interest of $855,000. In addition, ZNG, Ltd. owes $1,482,000 directly to Baltic for unpaid management fees and accrued interest through December 31, 2009.
-8-

Terms of loans to ZNG, Ltd. and ZNG:

Interest on any amounts loaned under the New Loan bears interest at the following rates, calculated and compounded on a daily basis, 14% per annum during the first two years of the Term, 13% per annum during the third year of the Term; and 12% thereafter until the end of the Term.

Additionally, under the terms of the June 2007 Deed of Variation, interest on the loans made by Baltic to ZNG is payable on:
 
 
a)
the earlier of (i) the date on which ZNG’s monthly turnover as shown by its monthly management accounts exceeds US $200,000 and (ii) the fifth anniversary of the Deed of Variation dated June 18, 2007; and
 
 
b)
thereafter, on a monthly basis on the final day of each calendar month using all available turnover, provided that in the event the interest due thereafter exceeds the monthly turnover of ZNG then all of the turnover except for the direct budgeted operating expenses of ZNG and management fees agreed to be paid to Siberian Energy Group Inc. under the Joint Venture Agreement will be allocated prior to the payment of such interest and any interest not able to be paid will accrue and be payable as soon as the level of turnover (less the fees payable to us) permits (collectively the “Interest Payments”).

In the event that ZNG does not make the Interest Payments when due, interest on the unpaid amounts shall be payable from the due date to the date paid at the rate of 6% per annum, calculated and accrued on a daily basis. The New Loan is unsecured by ZNG, but Caspian reserved the right to request security over all or some of the assets and/or undertaking of ZNG at any time prior to any drawdown of the New Loan, or while any money is outstanding under the New Loan.

On November 9, 2005, ZNG, Ltd. and Caspian entered into a Debenture, whereby ZNG, Ltd. granted Caspian a security interest in substantially all of its assets, including its 100% ownership of ZNG, to secure the repayment of the New Loan Agreement. Pursuant to the Debenture, ZNG, Ltd. granted Caspian a continuing security interest for the payment, performance and discharge of all of the liabilities owing to Caspian by ZNG, Ltd., in the following assets, both present and future, from time to time to the extent owned by ZNG, Ltd., or to the extent in which it has an interest.

Additionally, on November 9, 2005, ZNG, Ltd. and Caspian entered into an "Agreement for the Pledge of the Participatory Interest in OOO Zauralneftegaz" (the "Pledge Agreement"). Pursuant to the Pledge Agreement, ZNG, Ltd., pledged its 100% ownership interest in ZNG to Caspian, which included any proceeds, dividends, distributions or income deriving from ZNG and any compensation, whether monetary or in-kind, deriving from ZNG, received due to the liquidation or reorganization of ZNG. The Pledge Agreement shall remain in effect until all amounts owed to Caspian by ZNG, Ltd. are repaid. Pursuant to the Pledge Agreement, ZNG, Ltd., agreed to hold all dividends, interest and other income deriving from and by it for the account of Caspian, and agreed to pay such dividends, interest and other income to Caspian upon Caspian's request.
 
If ZNG, Ltd. fails to pay the amounts owed to Caspian pursuant to the Pledge Agreement, Caspian can sell the 100% interest in ZNG at public auction, in one or several sales, with an opening bid price of seventy five percent (75%) of the value set forth for the value of ZNG in the Pledge Agreement ($7,705,079) at the first public auction and fifty percent (50%) of the value set forth in the Pledge Agreement at the second public auction. If the opening bid for ZNG is not met at either the first or second public auction, Caspian shall have the right to retain ZNG, with its value equal to 90% of the value set at the second auction, and set-off its claims secured by ZNG, Ltd. by such value. If ZNG is sold at public auction, any and all proceeds from such sale received by Caspian shall be applied towards the discharge of the amounts owed by ZNG, Ltd. to Caspian.

Estimate of Amount of Time Spent On Research and Development

An initial business plan was developed over the course of three months in 2003. During that time period, market research was conducted. Research and development activities on the licensed blocks in the Kurgan Region were directly borne by the Company up to the time the Joint Venture was closed in October 2005. As a result of the closing of the Joint Venture, these research and development costs are now paid by both ZNG, Ltd. (as described above) and ZNG. Research activities include gravimetric, seismic works and seismotomography studies on the previously licensed areas. Costs incurred by ZNG and ZNG Ltd. in connection with these studies as of December 31, 2009 totaled approximately $18 million.

Moving forward we expect additional research and development costs will be paid by Neftebitum in connection with KNG’s exploration of KNG’s blocks and any of the blocks that KNG may obtain at auction in the future, of which there can be no assurance.

Employees

Siberian Energy Group Inc. currently employs three (3) employees in management. KNG, which we own a 44% interest in, has two (2) part-time employees. Zauralneftegaz ("ZNG"), which is 50% owned by the Company through its joint venture ZNG, Ltd., currently employs two (2) part-time employees.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principals generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of any contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates. We base our estimates on various assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
 
We believe the following critical accounting policy affects our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements:

Going Concern

The Company's financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern; however, since inception of its current endeavors in 2003, the Company has not earned any revenues from production of hydrocarbons and is considered to be in the development stage, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The Company is of the opinion that sufficient financing will be obtained from external sources to provide the Company with the ability to continue the process of development to achieve commercial production and sales of products. Since inception, the Company has obtained cash financing from organizing stockholders and employees in the form of loans, advances and deferred salaries, as well as through financing previously received of $25,000 to $85,000 per month in management fees from its Joint Venture, which management fees the Company has not received since October 2007, and which the Company can provide no assurances will ever resume. There can be no certainty as to availability of continued financing in the future. Failure to obtain sufficient financing may require the Company to reduce its operating activities. A failure to continue as a going concern would require stated amounts of assets and liabilities to be reflected on a liquidation basis which could differ from the going concern basis.

Competition

Competition among Russian producers occurs in two distinct tiers. The first tier includes large corporations such as Surgutneftegaz, LUKoil, Sibneft, Tatneft, Slaveft, YUKOS, TNK, Bashneft, Rosneft and Sidanco which together control more than 90% of the Russian oil and gas market. These companies operate large-scale fields and are primarily oriented towards exportation. The second tier, so called junior players, includes a large number of smaller companies that operate small and medium sized oil and gas fields. These companies enjoy a limited but stable range of customers within Russia's domestic market, and their customers include the larger companies which purchase this product for export. Like other junior players, the Company believes it has potential to succeed given the continued high demand for oil both domestically and internationally.
-10-

A healthy level of competition currently exists among local oil service companies and recent reductions in demand for their services are leading to a surplus of supply. The Company believes that having the wide range of service companies within such close proximity creates an opportunity for ZNG and KNG to choose the best combination of price and quality while signing the service contract, due to the fact that service companies may compete with each other for providing exploration, drilling and other services to ZNG and/or KNG.

Additionally, the Company believes ZNG's geographic location presents a significant competitive advantage that should provide for cost reductions in the development of its fields and the necessary support infrastructure. The specific factors contributing to this competitive advantage include:

-
The relatively flat topography which is dry and bog free;
   
-
Non permafrost lands which reduce drilling costs;
   
-
Significantly short distances to major pipelines which reduce the time and cost of installing the collector infrastructure from the wells to the main pipelines; and
   
-
Proximity to main railroads and highways which allow for greater and easier access to the producing site as well as for initial delivery of product.

We believe that KNG’s license areas, and those which KNG has applied for, have the following advantages:

-
the licenses are within existing oil deposits;
   
-
the licenses are close to a previously developed river transportation system on the Ob river and the North Sosva river, close to the river port of Igrim, through which KNG will be able to deliver equipment for the wells;
   
-
the licensed blocks for which KNG applied are close to other developed deposits; and
   
-
the blocks are close to major oil and gas pipelines.

Another type of competition, which ZNG and KNG expect to face is competition in the process of acquisition of new licenses. The Company expects that competitive pressures will further increase if hydrocarbon reservoirs are found in the Kurgan province and/or Khanty-Mansiysk district of Western Siberia, Russia. However, the Company believes that by the time new parcels become available for distribution in this region, the Company will have an advantage over companies with less experience in the region. The Company believes this will be due to its acquired experience and through the expertise of its employees, of which there can be no assurance. Many of the Company’s directors and officers have many years of experience in the oil and gas industry, specifically in the West-Siberian Basin. Additionally, the Company feels that it will have a competitive advantage because many of its Directors and employees reside in the West-Siberian Basin and are dedicated to developing the local infrastructure.

Dependence on One or A Few Major Customers

The nature of the oil industry is not based on individual customers. Crude and refined products are sold to local and international brokers as well as to refineries.

Patents, Trademarks and Licenses

KNG currently holds two five-year oil and gas exploration licenses, awarded in October 2007. KNG has also applied for 8 other licenses in Western Siberia, Russia, with no date currently planned for the remaining auctions as of the date of this filing.

Need For Government Approval

Federal and local government approval will not be required for conversion of exploration licenses to production licenses and for extension of licenses beyond their initial term. The Company has already received approval for its exploration licenses, however, additional approval is required if the Company is to deliver its crude or refined products on the national pipeline system. These approvals can only be guaranteed once the Company has proved reserves. Alternatively, the Company has also developed plans to deliver crude and product by truck and via rail transport for the early years if there are any delays in gaining pipeline approval, and the Company finds hydrocarbon reserves, of which there can be no assurance.

Additionally, under new federal laws the Company does not require the approval of state and/or federal agencies for conversion of the Company's exploration licenses to production licenses and extension of production licenses beyond their initial term as they automatically convert to 25 year production licenses upon the discovery of oil and gas, of which the Company provides no assurance.
 
Costs and Effects of Compliance with EnvironmentalLaws

According to the laws and regulations of the Russian Federation, organizations are permitted to carry out seismic and other development activities on licensed fields, provided the companies conform to ecological standards. Accordingly, ZNG and KNG have encountered two costs associated with environmental law compliance: costs associated with obtaining licenses and costs associated with obtaining permission from the Russian Ministry of Natural Resources (the "Ministry"). ZNG’s costs have totaled approximately $186,900, which includes $2,000 relating to the ecological review by the Ministry and $184,900 in legal costs and fees to obtain the Company's licenses. ZNG has also previously successfully passed a review by the Ministry and KNG will need to pass an ecological review at the drilling stage of activities, which has not yet started.

The Company will face additional costs to comply with environmental laws, which may be significant. In addition, the Ministry imposes certain environmental obligations on the Company, such as clean-up procedures.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Our securities are highly speculative and should only be purchased by persons who can afford to lose their entire investment in our Company. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business and financial results could be negatively affected to a significant extent. The Company's business is subject to many risk factors, including the following:

RISK OF CONTINUING OUR BUSINESS PLAN WITHOUT ADDITIONAL FINANCING.

We depend to a great degree on the ability to attract external financing in order to conduct future exploratory and development activities. The Company believes it can satisfy its cash requirements during the next twelve months, estimated at approximately $300,000, through funding provided by existing stockholders. As of December 31, 2009, the total funding provided to ZNG, Ltd. and ZNG by Baltic was equal to $23.5 million plus accrued interest of approximately $5 million, which has been spent on various purposes, including seismic and gas seismotomography surveys, drilling of two exploratory wells, and paying consultants for services performed in connection with surveys performed on the previously licensed area. Our partner in ZNG, Baltic has informed us that they do not plan to move forward with any further exploration activities through ZNG. The Company’s partner in KNG, Neftebitum, is responsible for financing the research work of KNG. Neftebitum is currently attempting to raise external funds; however, no significant amounts have been raised to date. If you invest in our Company and we are unable to raise the required funds, your investment could become worthless.
-12-

KNG WILL NEED SUBSTANTIAL FINANCING AND SUBSTANTIAL TIME BEFORE WE ANTICIPATE GENERATING REVENUES THROUGH KNG, IF ANY.

The Company anticipates the need for approximately $15,000,000 prior to KNG's expected generation of any revenues. In connection with the Agreement of Purchase and Sale, as described in more detail above, the Company sold a 56% interest in KNG to Neftebitum and various individuals in September 2008.  Pursuant to this agreement and the related Operating Agreement, Neftebitum is responsible for providing financing for the operations of KNG. Currently, the Company is aware of Neftebitum raising only a small part of this financing and the Company can make no assurances that sufficient financing will ever be raised. The Company also does not expect to generate any revenues through the operations of KNG, until such financing can be raised, of which there can be no assurance. Therefore, investors should keep in mind that even if Neftebitum is able to raise the substantial amounts of additional financing that KNG requires for its operations, it could still be years before KNG generates any revenue, if ever. If Neftebitum does not raise the $15,000,000 which the Company anticipates KNG needs to generate revenues, which, even if generated, will likely not be great enough to sustain KNG if no revenues are generated and hydrocarbon reserves are not discovered, KNG may be forced to abandon its business plan, and the Company could be forced to abandon or curtail its business plan as well, which could cause the value of the Company's common stock to substantially decline or become worthless.

OUR AUDITORS HAVE EXPRESSED SUBSTANTIAL DOUBT AS TO WHETHER OUR COMPANY CAN CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN.

Our Company is in its early development stage, as planned principal activities have not begun. We have generated only minimal revenues since inception and have incurred substantial losses including a net loss of $666,116 for the year ended December 31, 2009, a net loss of $5,863,560 for the year ended December 31, 2008, and had a total accumulated deficit of $15,522,505 as of December 31, 2009. These factors among others indicate that the Company may be unable to continue as a going concern, particularly in the event that it cannot generate sufficient cash flow to conduct its operations and/or obtain additional sources of capital and financing.

WE LACK AN OPERATING HISTORY WHICH YOU CAN USE TO EVALUATE US, MAKING ANY INVESTMENT IN OUR COMPANY RISKY.

Our Company lacks a long standing operating history which investors can use to evaluate our Company's previous earnings. Therefore, an investment in our Company is risky because we have no business history and it is hard to predict what the outcome of our business operations will be in the future.

WE MAY CONTINUE TO BE UNPROFITABLE AND MAY NOT GENERATE PROFITS TO CONTINUE OUR BUSINESS PLAN.

As a development stage company, we have had limited revenues and no profits to date and our net cumulative deficit attributable to our development stage as of December 31, 2009, was $15,072,720, and our total cumulative deficit was $15,522,505 which included $449,785 of pre-development stage deficit. We had $1,152,054 in accrued and unpaid salaries and a working capital deficit of $2,350,319 as of December 31, 2009. The Company is currently being funded by existing shareholders, but there can be no assurance this amount will be sufficient to continue our planned operations or that we will have enough money to repay our outstanding debts. If throughout KNG’s future oil exploration, if any, no viable wells are found, and consequently, we generate only minimal revenues through KNG, we will likely be forced to curtail or abandon our business plan. If this happens, you could lose your investment in our Company. If we are unable to generate profits, we will be forced to rely on external financing, of which there is no guarantee, to continue with our business plan.
-13-

LICENSES TO A TOTAL OF FOUR OF ZNG’S LICENSED BLOCKS EXPIRED IN MARCH 2008 AND THREE ADDITIONAL LICENSES HAVE SINCE EXPIRED, AND THERE IS A RISK THAT THE RIGHTS TO SUCH LICENSED BLOCKS MAY NOT BE RENEWED.
 
In or around March 2008, ZNG’s rights to four licensed blocks acquired in 2003, the Privolny, Mokrousovsky, West-Suersky and Orlovo-Pashkovsky blocks, expired and since that time, additional rights to three license blocks have expired. Between 2003 and 2007, ZNG carried out extensive seismic and gas seismotomographic studies on the four licensed blocks, and drilled 2 exploratory wells on the Privolny and Mokrousovsky blocks. Based on the interpretation of seismic and seismotomographic surveys and analysis of samples from the wells, ZNG prepared a comprehensive analysis of geological resources of the Kurgan region. Both the Privolny and Mokrousovsky studies confirmed the presence of hydrocarbons; however, a substantial amount of further exploration studies and work is required before a conclusion on the future potential of the blocks can be drawn. The licenses to four of the blocks expired in March 2008 and an additional three licenses have expired since then, and although ZNG kept the preferential right to re-apply for the licenses to continue exploration works on these blocks in the event it decides to restart exploration activities, there can be no assurance that such blocks will be able to be re-licensed by ZNG and/or that they will not be re-auctioned and awarded to alternative parties. If ZNG were to decide to re-license the blocks and they had already been auctioned off to other parties and/or were not eligible to be re-licensed, all of ZNG’s exploration work and studies performed on the previously licensed areas may become worthless and any exploration expenditures made by ZNG for exploration wells and other expenditures will likely not be able to be recouped by ZNG. Additionally, if ZNG were unable to re-license the blocks, the value of the Company’s securities could decline in value and/or become worthless.

WE HAVE A POOR FINANCIAL POSITION AND IF WE DO NOT GENERATE REVENUES, WE MAY BE FORCED TO ABANDON OUR BUSINESS PLAN.

Our Company currently has a poor financial position. We have generated only minimal revenues to date, and we have not discovered any hydrocarbon reserves or begun production on any wells. There is a risk that we will not find enough, or even any, viable wells which we require to generate enough profits for your investment in our Company to appreciate. If we never generate any revenues, our Company may be forced to curtail or abandon its business plan and your shares may become worthless.

OUR BUSINESS IS SPECULATIVE AND RISKY AND IF KNG DOES NOT FIND HYDROCARBON RESERVES, WE MAY BE FORCED TO CURTAIL OUR BUSINESS PLAN.

There is a risk that KNG will not find any hydrocarbon reserves and the cost of exploration will become too high for us to continue KNG’s business plan. As our only current operations are through our 44% ownership of KNG, if KNG were to cease operations, your investment in our Company could become devalued or could become worthless.

OUR INDUSTRY IS COMPETITIVE AND AS SUCH, COMPETITIVE PRESSURES COULD PREVENT US FROM OBTAINING PROFITS.

The main factor determining success in the oil exploration and extraction industry is finding viable wells. If our Company, through ZNG, Ltd., KNG or other joint ventures we may enter into in the future, are unable to find producing wells and our competition is, it is likely that our Company will be driven out of business. Additionally, our industry is subject to significant capital requirements and as such, larger companies may have an advantage should they compete with us for exploration licenses, because they may have resources substantially greater than ours. Investors should take into account the above factors and understand that if we are unable to raise additional capital or generate profits, the Company may be forced to liquidate its assets and an investment in our Company could become worthless.
-14-

OUR GROWTH WILL PLACE SIGNIFICANT STRAINS ON OUR RESOURCES.

The Company's growth is expected to place a significant strain on the Company's managerial, operational and financial resources. Furthermore, as the Company receives contracts, the Company will be required to manage multiple relationships with various customers and other third parties. These requirements will be exacerbated in the event of further growth of the Company or in the number of its contracts. There can be no assurance that the Company's systems, procedures or controls will be adequate to support the Company's operations or that the Company will be able to achieve the rapid execution necessary to succeed and implement its business plan. The Company's future operating results will also depend on its ability to add additional personnel commensurate with the growth of its business. If the Company is unable to manage growth effectively, the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition will be adversely affected.

WE RELY ON KEY PERSONNEL AND IF THEY LEAVE OUR COMPANY OUR BUSINESS PLAN COULD BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED.

We rely on the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, David Zaikin and Elena Pochapski, for the success of our Company, who are not currently employed under employment agreements. Their experience and input create the foundation for our business and they are responsible for the directorship and control over the Company's development activities. The Company does not hold "key man" insurance on either member of management. Moving forward, should they be lost for any reason, the Company will incur costs associated with recruiting replacement personnel and any potential delays in operations. If we are unable to replace Mr. Zaikin and/or Ms. Pochapski, or if Mr. Zaikin or Ms. Pochapski are unable to spend a sufficient amount of time on Company matters, the Company may be forced to scale back or curtail its business plan. As a result of this, any securities you hold in our Company could become devalued.

ZNG’S OR KNG’S PROJECTIONS, ESTIMATES AND STATISTICAL ANALYSIS MAY BE INACCURATE OR SUBSTANTIALLY WRONG, WHICH MAY PREVENT ZNG AND/OR KNG FROM EXECUTING THEIR BUSINESS PLANS.

Projections on future revenues as well as costs and required capital expenditures are based on estimates. Business statistical analysis is used in projection of drilling success ratios, average production costs, world oil price fluctuations and their correspondence to Russian domestic market. If ZNG’s or KNG’s projections or estimates are wrong or our statistical analysis faulty, ZNG's or KNG’s revenues may be adversely affected which could prevent ZNG and/or KNG from executing their business strategy. As an investor, if this happens your securities in our Company could be adversely affected and you could lose your investment in our Company.
 
THERE IS UNCERTAINTY AS TO OUR ABILITY TO ENFORCE CIVIL LIABILITIES BOTH IN AND OUTSIDE OF THE UNITED STATES DUE TO THE FACT THAT OUR OFFICERS, DIRECTORS AND ASSETS ARE NOT LOCATED IN THE UNITED STATES.

Our officers and Directors, our properties and licenses, and the majority of our assets are located in countries other than the United States, including Canada and Russia. As a result, it may be difficult for shareholders to effect service of process within the United States on our officers and Directors. In addition, investors may have difficulty enforcing judgments based upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof, both in and outside of the United States.
-15-

WE FACE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE FACT THAT THE MAJORITY OF OUR OPERATIONS THROUGH OUR HOLDINGS ARE CONDUCTED IN RUSSIA, AND THE LICENSES OWNED THROUGH OUR HOLDINGS ARE IN RUSSIA.

Zauralneftegaz, Ltd. which we own 50% of through our Joint Venture, and KNG, which we own 44% of, hold certain licenses and rights to reapply for licenses to certain oil and gas properties in the Kurgan Region of Russia.  As a result, we are subject to various risks associated with doing business in Russia relating to Russia's economic and political environment. As is typical of an emerging market, Russia does not possess a well-developed business, legal and regulatory infrastructure that would generally exist in a more mature free market economy and, in recent years, Russia has undergone substantial political, economic and social change. Furthermore, in recent years the Russian government has unilaterally annexed certain oil and gas properties and companies for the government, and there can be no assurance that if commercially exploitable oil and gas reserves are found on our properties, that such properties will not be annexed or otherwise claimed by the Russian government.  Our failure to manage the risks associated with doing business in Russia could have a material adverse effect upon our results of operations.

IF WE ARE LATE IN FILING OUR QUARTERLY OR ANNUAL REPORTS WITH THE SEC, WE MAY BE DE-LISTED FROM THE OVER-THE-COUNTER BULLETIN BOARD.

Under Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board ("OTCBB") rules relating to the timely filing of periodic reports with the SEC, any OTCBB issuer who fails to file a periodic report (Form 10-Q's or 10-K's) by the due date of such report (not withstanding any extension granted to the issuer by the filing of a Form 12b-25), three (3) times during any twenty-four (24) month period are de-listed from the OTCBB. Such removed issuer would not be re-eligible to be listed on the OTCBB for a period of one-year, during which time any subsequent late filing would reset the one-year period of de-listing. Therefore, if we are late in filing a periodic report three times in any twenty-four (24) month period and are de-listed from the OTCBB, our securities may become worthless and we may be forced to curtail or abandon our business plan.

WE INCUR SIGNIFICANT COSTS AS A RESULT OF OPERATING AS A FULLY REPORTING COMPANY IN CONNECTION WITH SECTION 404 OF THE SARBANES OXLEY ACT, AND OUR MANAGEMENT IS REQUIRED TO DEVOTE SUBSTANTIAL TIME TO NEW COMPLIANCE INITIATIVES.

We anticipate incurring significant legal, accounting and other expenses in connection with our status as a fully reporting public company. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the "Sarbanes-Oxley Act") and new rules subsequently implemented by the SEC have imposed various new requirements on public companies, including requiring changes in corporate governance practices. As such, our management and other personnel will need to devote a substantial amount of time to these new compliance initiatives. Moreover, these rules and regulations will increase our legal and financial compliance costs and will make some activities more time-consuming and costly. In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that we maintain effective internal controls for financial reporting and disclosure of controls and procedures. In particular, for fiscal year 2010, Section 404 will require us to obtain a report from our independent registered public accounting firm attesting to the assessment made by management.  Our testing, or the subsequent testing by our independent registered public accounting firm, may reveal deficiencies in our internal controls over financial reporting that are deemed to be material weaknesses. Our compliance with Section 404 will require that we incur substantial accounting expense and expend significant management efforts. We currently do not have an internal audit group, and we may need to hire additional accounting and financial staff with appropriate public company experience and technical accounting knowledge. Moreover, if we are not able to comply with the requirements of Section 404 in a timely manner, or if we or our independent registered public accounting firm identifies deficiencies in our internal controls over financial reporting that are deemed to be material weaknesses, the market price of our stock could decline, and we could be subject to sanctions or investigations by the SEC or other regulatory authorities, which would require additional financial and management resources.
-16-

AS THERE IS CURRENTLY ONLY A LIMITED MARKET FOR OUR COMMON STOCK, THE MARKET FOR OUR COMMON STOCK MAY CONTINUE TO BE ILLIQUID, SPORADIC AND VOLATILE.

There is currently only a limited market for our common stock, and as such, we anticipate that such market will be illiquid, sporadic and subject to wide fluctuations in response to several factors moving forward, including, but not limited to:

 
(1)
actual or anticipated variations in our results of operations;
     
 
(2)
our ability or inability to generate new revenues;
     
 
(3)
the number of shares in our public float;

 
(4)
increased competition;
     
 
(5)
the political atmosphere in Russia; and
     
 
(6)
conditions and trends in the oil, gas, and energy industries in general.

Furthermore, because our common stock is traded on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board, our stock price may be impacted by factors that are unrelated or disproportionate to our operating performance. These market fluctuations, as well as general economic, political and market conditions, such as recessions, interest rates or international currency fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Additionally, at present, we have a limited number of shares in our public float, and as a result, there could be extreme fluctuations in the price of our common stock.

INVESTORS FACE A RISK THAT THE COMPANY WILL NOT BE SUBJECT TO THE REPORTING REQUIREMENTS OR WILL ENTER INTO A TRANSACTION THAT RESULTS IN NEW MANAGEMENT AND A NEW OPERATING BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY.

Management of the Company is analyzing steps to no longer be subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and/or considering entering into a reverse merger transaction.  In the event that the Company is no longer subject to the reporting requirements of the SEC, the Company’s stock would likely trade on the Pinksheets and would likely have less liquidity on such market and may trade at a lower share price than it currently trades.  In the event that the Company enters into a reverse merger transaction, new management would run the Company and would likely operate a new business which may result in a loss on your investment.

STATE SECURITIES LAWS MAY LIMIT SECONDARY TRADING, WHICH MAY RESTRICT THE STATES IN WHICH AND CONDITIONS UNDER WHICH YOU CAN SELL SHARES.

Secondary trading in our common stock may not be possible in any state until the common stock is qualified for sale under the applicable securities laws of the state or there is confirmation that an exemption, such as listing in certain recognized securities manuals, is available for secondary trading in the state. If we fail to register or qualify, or to obtain or verify an exemption for the secondary trading of the common stock in any particular state, the common stock cannot be offered or sold to, or purchased by, a resident of that state. In the event that we do not apply for registration in, there is not a valid exemption for, and/or a significant number of states refuse to permit secondary trading in our common stock, the liquidity for the common stock could be significantly impacted.
-17-

INVESTORS MAY FACE SIGNIFICANT RESTRICTIONS ON THE RESALE OF OUR COMMON STOCK DUE TO FEDERAL REGULATIONS OF PENNY STOCKS.

Our common stock will be subject to the requirements of Rule 15(g)9, promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act as long as the price of our common stock is below $5.00 per share. Under such rule, broker-dealers who recommend low-priced securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors must satisfy special sales practice requirements, including a requirement that they make an individualized written suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's consent prior to the transaction. The Securities Enforcement Remedies and Penny Stock Reform Act of 1990, also requires additional disclosure in connection with any trades involving a stock defined as a penny stock.

Generally, the Commission defines a penny stock as any equity security not traded on an exchange or quoted on NASDAQ that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share. The required penny stock disclosures include the delivery, prior to any transaction, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated with it. Such requirements could severely limit the market liquidity of the securities and the ability of purchasers to sell their securities in the secondary market.
  
In addition, various state securities laws impose restrictions on transferring "penny stocks" and as a result, investors in the common stock may have their ability to sell their shares of the common stock impaired.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

The Company's United States office is located at 275 Madison Avenue, 6th Floor, New York, New York 10016, USA. The lease is at a monthly rate of $250 and is on a month to month basis. This space is leased from Office Escape, an operator of business centers in New York and other United States cities. The Company is not the sole occupant of the space and consequently the cost of the rental is shared with other occupants. The Company does not use the office for any purposes falling outside of its business needs.  The Company is currently taking steps to move its New York office space, and as such, the Chief Executive Officer has been personally paying the Company’s office space rent and not billing the Company since approximately December 31, 2008, which resulted in the Company having no rent or occupancy expense for the year ended December 31, 2009.

KNG currently rents office space in Khanty-Mansiysk City, Russia, under a one year lease expiring in December 2009, at a monthly rental cost of approximately $650.
 
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In January 2007, we learned that certain of our former officers, Directors and shareholders, had attempted to transfer shares of our common stock, which those individuals had agreed to cancel in connection with the purchase of a majority of the Company’s outstanding shares from those individuals by our current officers, Directors and majority shareholders in April 2003. In February 2007, we filed for a Temporary Restraining Order and Motion for Preliminary Injunction against those individuals in the District Court of Clark County, Nevada.

On February 20, 2007, our Temporary Restraining Order and Motion for Preliminary Injunction was heard by the District Court of Clark County, Nevada, and we were granted an indefinite injunction without a hearing by the court. As such, those individuals who previously attempted to transfer and sell the shares which they held will be prevented from transferring or selling such shares until they can show good cause with the court why such indefinite injunction should be lifted.

From time to time, we may become party to other litigation or other legal proceedings that we consider to be a part of the ordinary course of our business. We are not currently involved in legal proceedings that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations, other than the proceeding described above. We may become involved in material legal proceedings in the future.

THESE FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES THAT COULD CAUSE ACTUAL RESULTS TO DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM HISTORICAL RESULTS OR ANTICIPATED RESULTS, INCLUDING THOSE SET FORTH UNDER "RISK FACTORS" IN THIS MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS" AND ELSEWHERE IN THIS REPORT. THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH "SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA" AND THE COMPANY'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND NOTES THERETO INCLUDED ELSEWHERE IN THIS REPORT.

PLAN OF OPERATIONS FOR THE NEXT TWELVE MONTHS

In coordination with Neftebitum, the Company plans to focus on the exploration activities of KNG in the Khanty-Mansiysk region of Russia, to satisfy the requirements of the licensing agreements and to conduct preparatory work for the seismic surveys on these areas, funding permitting (which funding is the responsibility of Neftebitum), of which there can be no assurance.

Moving forward, we anticipate targeting other potential long term investments in Russia and countries in the former Soviet Union, separate from our involvement in the Joint Venture and KNG, funding permitting, of which there can be no assurance. Additionally, the Company currently plans to change its business focus from targeting early stage exploration projects to acquiring assets in producing fields, funding permitting, of which there can be no assurance, in order to decrease its exploration risks.

Currently we are evaluating different business opportunities in the oil and gas industry, including advanced development stage and revenue-producing enterprises and are in preliminary discussions with a potential partner which owns several oil and gas producing properties in Western Siberia; however, as no definitive agreement has been reached, we can provide no assurances that the discussions will result in any definitive understandings or partnerships, and it is likely that any agreement would be conditioned on us raising substantial additional funding, which we can provide no assurances will be available on favorable terms, if at all.

Historically, we have obtained cash financing from organizing stockholders in the form of loans and advances. Additionally, during the fourth quarter of 2005, we restructured much of our debt through the issuance of shares of our common stock to our creditors and obtained waiver letters, postponing certain of our liabilities until such time as we have generated sufficient profits to pay such debts. These waiver letters related to the payment of certain trade debts as well as shareholder loans and accrued salaries.

In connection with the Joint Venture, the Company previously received monthly management fees, which varied from $25,000 to $85,000 per month. Due to the “transition period” of the Joint Venture’s exploration activities and subsequent decision of Baltic not to pursue further exploration activities through ZNG, no management fees have been paid since October 2007, and the Joint Venture will not pay any management fees in the future.  As the Company will not receive any management fees moving forward, the Company believes that its organizing stockholders will continue to provide financing for the Company, of which there can be no assurance.

In the past, we have obtained cash financing from organizing stockholders in the form of loans and advances, as a result, amounts totaling $523,906 and $447,663 were payable to the stockholders as of December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively. However, there can be no certainty as to the availability of continued financing in the future. Failure to obtain sufficient financing may require us to reduce our operating activities. A failure to continue as a going concern would then require stated amounts of assets and liabilities to be reflected on a liquidation basis which could differ from the going concern basis.

COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2009, COMPARED TO THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008

We had no revenues and other income for the year ended December 31, 2009 or 2008.  Until October 2007, the Company received monthly management fees of between $25,000 and $85,000 pursuant to terms of the Joint Venture.  However, the Company has not received any management fees since October 2007, and does not anticipate receiving any such fees moving forward.
 
We have not generated any revenues to date through the sale of oil and/or gas.

We had total expenses of $636,616 for the year ended December 31, 2009, compared to total expenses for the year ended December 31, 2008, of $740,043, which represented a decrease in total expenses from the prior period of $103,427 or 14.0%.

The main reasons for the decrease in total expenses for the year ended December 31, 2009, compared to the year ended December 31, 2008, were an $84,851 or 26.9% decrease in professional and consulting fees to $231,132 for the year ended December 31, 2009, compared to $315,983 for the year ended December 31, 2008, which decrease is largely attributable to the fact that the Company used less third party consultants and advisors during the year ended December 31, 2009, compared to the same period of 2008; a $24,656 or 45.5% decrease in marketing and other expenses, to $29,569 for the year ended December 31, 2009, compared to $54,225 for the year ended December 31, 2008; and a $14,101 decrease in rent and occupancy expenses to no rent and occupancy expenses for the year ended December 31, 2009, compared to $14,101 for the year ended December 31, 2008, partially offset by a $21,543 or 6.2% increase in salaries to $368,253 for the year ended December 31, 2009, compared to $346,710 for the year ended December 31, 2008.  The Company is currently taking steps to move its New York office space, and as such, the Chief Executive Officer has been personally paying the Company’s office space rent and not billing the Company since approximately December 31, 2008, which resulted in the Company having no rent or occupancy expense for the year ended December 31, 2009.

We had certain one-time additional expenses during the year ended December 31, 2008, which were not represented during the year ended December 31, 2009, including $669,570 of loss from sale of investment (described below),  $3,928,000 of loss on deemed disposition of oil and gas properties, unproved (described below), and $525,947 of impairment charge on investment. Since 56% of KNG was sold for a nominal amount, a non-cash impairment charge of $525,947 was recorded to reduce the carrying value of the 44% investment in KNG to zero.  The $669,570 of loss from sale of investment for the year ended December 31, 2008 can be attributed to our sale of a controlling interest in KNG as described in greater detail above.  The $3,928,000 loss on deemed disposition of oil and gas properties, unproved, for the year ended December 31, 2008 can be attributed to the fact that the Company no longer has any plans to utilize the geological data associated with KNG, valued at $3,928,000, other than through KNG’s activities, and no consideration was received for the use of such geological data in connection with the sale of the controlling interest in KNG, although the Company has committed to providing such information to Neftebitum.

We had a net loss of $666,116 for the year ended December 31, 2009, which included $636,616 of operating expenses discussed above and a $29,500 loss from disposition of a loan to KNG, since the Company is not expecting repayment of this loan. Net loss of $666,116 represented a decrease in net loss of $5,197,444 or 88.6% from net loss of $5,863,560 for the year ended December 31, 2008, which decrease in net loss was mainly due to the certain one-time expenses associated with the Company’s accounting for the sale of KNG during the year ended December 31, 2008, as described above, which were not repeated during the year ended December 31, 2009.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We had current assets of $1,320 as of December 31, 2009, which included cash of $751; and prepaid expenses and other current assets of $569.

We had total assets of $2,587 as of December 31, 2009, which included current assets of $1,320 and non-current assets of $1,267 representing property and equipment, net.  
 
We had total liabilities of $2,351,639 as of December 31, 2009, which were solely current liabilities and which included $523,906 of accounts payable to related party stockholders in connection with those shareholders paying certain of our expenses from the period between January 1, 2003 to December 31, 2009; $68,848 of accounts payable to Baltic in connection with a $29,000 loan advanced to the Company from Baltic and certain other expenses owed to Baltic; $606,831 of accounts payable to others for advisory and professional services rendered; and $1,152,054 of accrued payroll, which included $652,500 payable to our Chief Executive Officer, David Zaikin, of which $540,000 was accrued in 2007-2009, and $112,500 which was owed to Mr. Zaikin for services rendered prior to September 2005, at which time he agreed to stop accruing salary until January 2007, when he provided us notice of his intent to once again begin accruing salary until such time as we have sufficient funds to pay such accrued salary, $239,529 payable to our Chief Financial Officer, Elena Pochapski, and $69,242 of accrued salary payable to our former Chief Executive Officer, Shakeel Adam.  

We had negative working capital of $2,350,319 and a total pre-development and development stage accumulated deficit of $15,522,505 as of December 31, 2009.

Because our cumulative losses associated with the operations of ZNG exceeded our investment as of the date of the Joint Venture, ZNG, Ltd. is carried on our balance sheet at $-0- as of December 31, 2009. Our investment in ZNG, Ltd. will exceed $-0- at such time as ZNG, Ltd. has cumulative earnings sufficient to repay all loans to Baltic as provided in the Joint Venture, if ever.

As of December 31, 2009, the Company owns a 44% interest in KNG. The Company’s investment in KNG is recorded on the equity method of accounting effective October 1, 2008. After careful consideration of the current financial position of KNG, the Company applied an impairment charge to the value of the investment in KNG which resulted in carrying it at zero value.
 
We had $19,831 of net cash flows from operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2009, which was attributable to adjustments to reconcile $666,116 of net loss, offset by $606,422 of accounts payable and accrued expenses, $621 of depreciation and amortization, $49,452 of common stock and warrants issued for services and increased by $48 of prepaid expenses and other assets.

In connection with the Joint Venture (described under "Joint Venture," above), the Company historically received management fees, which varied from $25,000 to $85,000 per month. Due to the “transition period” of the Joint Venture’s exploration activities, no management fees were paid during the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2009, and the Company does not anticipate receiving any such fees moving forward.  If the Company does not receive any management fees moving forward, the Company anticipates that its stockholders and management will continue to provide financing for the Company, of which there can be no assurance.

In connection with the activities of KNG, we are not currently receiving compensation for the use of the Company’s geological data. According to the Operating agreement with Neftebitum, such fees may be paid to us in future years depending on the financial position of KNG, of which there can be no assurance.

We are taking steps to raise equity capital and/or to borrow additional funds. There can be no assurance that any new capital will be available to us or that adequate funds for our operations, whether from our financial markets, or other arrangements will be available when needed or on terms satisfactory to us, if at all. We have no commitments from officers, directors or affiliates to provide funding. Our failure to obtain adequate financing may require us to delay, curtail or scale back some or all of our operations. Additionally, any additional financing may involve dilution to our then-existing shareholders.

Critical Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Principles of Consolidation:

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its then wholly-owned subsidiaries, ZNG (through October 14, 2005), Siberian Energy Group (Canada) and KNG (December 31, 2006 through September 30, 2008).  All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.  After October 14, 2005, the Company’s investment in ZNG is accounted for on the equity method of accounting.  After September 30, 2008, the Company’s investment in KNG is accounted for on the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, the assets, liabilities and equity are no longer presented on the Company’s balance sheet.

Foreign Currency Translation:

The Russian subsidiaries ZNG and KNG use the Ruble as their functional currency; Siberian Energy Group (Canada) uses the Canadian dollar as its functional currency.  The books and records of ZNG, KNG and Siberian Energy Group (Canada) are kept in their functional currencies.  The Company translates to U.S. dollars the assets and liabilities of ZNG, KNG, and Siberian Energy Group (Canada) at the year-end exchange rates; and income statement amounts are converted at the average rates of exchange for the year.  Translation gains and losses are included within other comprehensive income (loss).

Oil and Gas Properties:

The Company follows the full cost method of accounting for oil and gas properties.  Accordingly, all costs associated with acquisition, exploration, and development of oil and gas reserves, including directly related overhead costs, are capitalized.

All capitalized costs of oil and gas properties, including the estimated future costs to develop proved reserves, will be amortized on the unit-of production method using estimates of proved reserves.  Investments in unproved properties and major development projects are not amortized until proved reserves associated with the projects can be determined or until impairment occurs.  When applicable, if the results of an assessment indicate that the properties are impaired, the amount of the impairment is added to the capitalized costs to be amortized.

In addition, the capitalized costs are subject to a “ceiling test,” which basically limits such costs to the aggregate of the “estimated present value,” discounted at a 10-percent interest rate of future net revenues from proved reserves, based on current economic and operating conditions, plus the lower of cost or fair market value of unproved properties.

Sales of proved and unproved properties are accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs with no gain or loss recognized, unless such adjustments would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves of oil and gas, in which case the gain or loss is recognized in income.  Abandonments of properties are accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs with no loss recognized.

Property and Equipment:

Property and equipment is stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation.  Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method.

Long-Lived Assets:

Long lived assets to be held and used or disposed of other than by sale are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.  When required, impairment losses on assets to be held and used or disposed of other than by sale are recognized based on the fair value of the asset.  Long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale are reported at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
 
 
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Siberian Energy Group Inc.


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Siberian Energy Group Inc. (a development stage company) as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the cumulative period of Development Stage Activity – January 1, 2003 through December 31, 2009.  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 the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  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 Siberian Energy Group Inc. as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended and the cumulative period of Development Stage Activity – January 1, 2003 through December 31, 2009, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that Siberian Energy Group Inc. will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 11 to the financial statements, Siberian Energy Group Inc. has not earned significant revenue since inception of its current endeavor, and is considered to be in the development stage which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.  Management’s plans relative to these matters are also described in Note 11 and throughout the financial statements.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
