Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements

December 31, 20172018

Note 1 - General

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted in accordance with such rules and regulations. The information furnished in the interim condensed financial statements includes normal recurring adjustments and reflects all adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of such financial statements. Although management believes the disclosures and information presented are adequate to make the information not misleading, it is suggested that these interim condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements and notes thereto included in its June 30, 20172018 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Operating results for the three months and six months ended December 31, 20172018 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending June 30, 2018.2019.

Shares (denominator)			71,904,290				70,635,657
Per Share Amount		$	(0.00	)		$	(0.01	)

The basic loss per share of common stock is based on the weighted average number of shares issued and outstanding during the period of the financial statements. Stock warrants convertible into 10,933,3348,333,334 shares of common stock have not been included in the fully diluted income per share calculation for the three or six months ended December 31, 20172018 or the three and six months ended December 31, 2016,2017, because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive, thereby reducing the net loss per common share.

Note 3 - Common StockUse of Estimates

During December, 2017,The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the Company issued 142,857 sharesreported amounts of common stock for cashassets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at $0.07 per share for proceedsthe date of $10,000.the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Note 4 – Notes Payable – Related Parties- Derivative Liability

DuringThe Company computes the six months ended December 31, 2017,fair value of the derivative liability arising from the over-commitment of shares at each reporting period with the change in the fair value recorded as non-cash expense or non-cash income. The key component in the value of the derivative liability is the Company’s stock price, which is subject to significant fluctuation and is not under the Company’s control. Therefore, the resulting effect on net loss is subject to significant fluctuation and will continue to be so until the Company’s outstanding warrants are converted into common stock, or paid in full of cash. Assuming all other fair value inputs remain constant, the Company borrowed $65,000 from a current shareholder with interest at 5%, payable in full at maturity

During the six months ended December 31, 2017, the Company borrowed an additional $4,000 from an individual investor with interest at 2.5%, payable in full in one year.

During the six months ended December 31, 2017, the Company borrowed an additional $54,389 from an officer at 0%, payable in full in one year.

For the threewill record non-cash expense when its stock price increases and six months ended December 31, 2017, the Company incurred interest expense on these notes payable in the amount of $22,445 and $44,176, respectively as compared to $20,357 and $39,041, respectively, for the three and six months ended December 31, 2016.non-cash income when its stock price decreases.

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements

December 31, 20172018

Since the number of shares issuable under the convertible related party notes payable is undeterminable, the Company may be required to issue shares in excess of the number of shares authorized by its shareholders. As a result, when the Company determines that is does not have sufficient shares to meet the obligations of derivative unexercised warrants, the derivatives must be valued using the Black Scholes option pricing model and a liability is recorded as though the obligations would be settled using some means other than stock. The inputs used in the calculation include the stock price at period end, the exercise price, the risk free rate corresponding to the years left to maturity, the volatility and the variance of the stock price. For the six months ended December 31, 2018, the Company determined that it was over-committed to the number of shares issuable on the exercise of outstanding debentures, stock options and warrants for approximately 237,624 shares. The derivative liability balance decreased from $84,821 as of June 30, 2018 to $8,011 as of December 31, 2018 resulting in the recognition of non-cash income of $76,810 during the six months ended December 31, 2018.

The Black-Scholes option pricing model used the following assumptions:

Note 5 –- Common Stock

During the six months ended December, 2018, the Company did not issue any shares of stock.

For the three and six months ended December 31, 2018, the Company incurred interest expense on these notes payable in the amount of $28,338 and $56,095, respectively, as compared to $22,445 and $44,176, respectively, for the three and six months ended December 31, 2017. At December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2018, there was $336,149 and $280,054, respectively, of accrued interest on notes payable included in accrued liabilities.

Note 6 –8 - Other Contingencies –- Litigation

In August, 2014, we initiated separate legal actions in Pakistan for an injunction against Sui Southern Gas Company Limited (“Sui Southern”) and Hycarbex-American Energy, Inc. (“Hycarbex”), respectively, in furtherance of the prior interim orders of the Arbitration Tribunal. The new action filed in the Sindh, Karachi High Court named as defendants Sui Southern, Hycarbex, its parent company, Hycarbex Asia Pte. Ltd. (“Hycarbex Asia”) and two additional pro forma defendants and requests an injunction against Sui Southern against payment to Hycarbex of 18% of the total proceeds of gas sales. The requested injunction was granted to us by the Karachi Court but later vacated as premature as it pertains to the third party gas gatherer. However, we also filed in the Islamabad High Court an action against Hycarbex, Hycarbex Asia and Hydro Tur as defendants and obtained injunctive relief against Hycarbex from interference with the Arbitration Tribunal-ordered notifications to Sui Southern to pay us directly our 18% of production, and injunctive relief requiring Hycarbex to escrow the 18% of production which would have been payable to the Company. On April 15, 2015, the ICC Arbitration Tribunal rendered its Partial Final Award in the pending arbitration proceedings which declared that the November 9, 2003 Stock Purchase Agreement between the Company, Hycarbex and Hydro-Tur, which was amended on February 16, 2004, and December 15, 2009, is void ab initio and of no legal effect on account of the fraud and misrepresentations of Hycarbex, Hydro-Tur and Hycarbex-Asia and that the Company is thus the 100% owner of the common stock of Hycarbex relating back to the original Stock Purchase Agreement date of November 9, 2003. In connection with its findings, the ICC Arbitration Tribunal ordered that the register of shareholders for Hycarbex be corrected to reflect the Company as the owner of 100% of the common stock, that Hycarbex and Hycarbex-Asia take any and all steps necessary to effect the rectification of the register of shareholders of Hycarbex to reflect the Company as the owner of 100% of the common stock, and that Hycarbex and Hycarbex-Asia bear all costs of the arbitration proceedings, including the Company’s legal costs, which costs and fees are to be fixed by the ICC Arbitration Tribunal in a subsequent award after submission of the total costs and fees by AEGG. The ICC Arbitration Tribunal dismissed Hydro-Tur’s application for costs. The April 15 Award makes moot certain of the pending actions in Pakistan due to the recovery of ownership of 100% of the stock of Hycarbex.

On August 31, 2018, the International Chamber of Commerce Arbitration Tribunal issued its unanimous Final Award completing the arbitration proceeding. The Final Award decrees that: (1) Hycarbex Asia Pte. Ltd. pay to the Company US$527,293 as reimbursement for legal fees and costs; (2) Hycarbex Asia Pte. Ltd. pay to the Company US$597,100 as reimbursement for the costs of arbitration; and (3) Hycarbex Asia Pte. Ltd. return to the Company 1.5 million of the company’s common shares, or if such shares are no longer held by Hycarbex Asia Pte. Ltd., authorizing the cancellation of the shares. The International Chamber of Commerce further authorized a refund to the Company of US$212,000 in filing and hearing fees deposited by the Company. As of the date of these financial statements, US$213,800 has been remitted to the Company and reported as a gain on legal settlement in the Company’s statement of operations for the six months ended December 31, 2018. The International Chamber of Commerce “ICC” authorized a refund of $212,000, but the Company received a deposit of $213,800. Hycarbex Asia Pte. Ltd. is currently in liquidation proceedings in Singapore and thus the Company is uncertain whether any additional financial awards to the Company will be recovered from Hycarbex Asia Pte. Ltd.

December 31, 20172018

The Company has affectedeffected the shareholder and management registration changes ordered by the ICC and has caused Hycarbex to open a new office in Islamabad, Pakistan for Hycarbex’s future operations. The new management of Hycarbex has also assumed control of Hycarbex’s Pakistan personnel. Finally, the new management of Hycarbex has begun its efforts to assume complete control of the Pakistan-based assets, including review and appraisement of each asset and interfacing with the local oil and gas regulatory authorities with jurisdiction over those assets to assure regulatory compliance. The assumptionGovernment of complete controlPakistan, including the Ministry of Petroleum, the Director General of Petroleum Concessions, the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan and the Pakistan Board of Investment have each advised that they view the Company as the legal owner of Hycarbex. Further, on May 11, 2018, the Government of Pakistan granted to Hycarbex an extension to the Yasin Exploration License relating back to the date of the Hycarbexrequest for extension in March 2013. Planning has been initiated toward development and exploration activities for the Yasin Exploration License based on this extension. The extension is subject to performance requirements pertaining to seismic, rework of the Haseeb #1 Well and the work program financial obligations which are being reviewed by Management and which will be discussed with the Government of Pakistan as the work at the site moves forward. Due to the December 31, 2018 expiration date stated in the May 11, 2018 letter, the Company has requested a further extension from the Government.Management intends to conduct a detailed review of the benefits and obligations associated with these Pakistan-based assets is expected to take several months and be completed in calendar year 2018.assets.

Note 7 –9 - Going Concern

The Company’s financial statements have been prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability of assets or classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. At December 31, 2017,2018, the Company’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets, it has accumulated losses from inception totaling $22,579,468, and it has recorded negative cash flows from operations. The preceding circumstances combine to raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management has been successful in capital raises in the past to continue operations, but there can be no assurance that success will continue in the future.

Note 8 –10 - Subsequent Events

In accordance with ASC 855-10, management of the Company has reviewed all material events from December 31, 20172018 through the date the financial statements were issued. There were no other material events that warrant any additional disclosure.

Overview

On April 15, 2015, the ICCInternational Chamber of Commerce Arbitration Tribunal rendered its Partial Final Award in the pending arbitration proceedings which declared that the November 9, 2003 sale of 100% of the stock of Hycarbex is void ab initio and of no legal effect on account of the fraud and misrepresentations of Hycarbex, Hydro-Tur and Hycarbex-Asia, thereby returning the Company to its 100% ownership position of the common stock of Hycarbex which it held in calendar 2003. In connection with its findings, the ICC Arbitration Tribunal ordered that the register of shareholders for Hycarbex be corrected to reflect the Company as the owner of 100% of the common stock, that Hycarbex and Hycarbex-Asia take any and all steps necessary to effect the rectification of the register of shareholders of Hycarbex to reflect the Company as the owner of 100% of the common stock, and that Hycarbex and Hycarbex-Asia bear all costs of the arbitration proceedings, including the Company’s legal costs, which costs and fees arewere to be fixed by the ICC Arbitration Tribunal in a subsequent award after submission of the total costs and fees by AEGG.the Company.

TheIn response to the April 15 Partial Final Award, the Company has effected the shareholder and management registration changes ordered by the ICC and has caused Hycarbex to open a new office in Islamabad, Pakistan for Hycarbex’s future operations. NewThe Government of Pakistan, including the Ministry of Petroleum, the Director General Petroleum Concessions, the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan and the Pakistan Board of Investment have each advised that they view the Company as the legal owner of Hycarbex.

On August 31, 2018, the International Chamber of Commerce Arbitration Tribunal issued its unanimous Final Award completing the arbitration proceeding. The Final Award decrees that: (1) Hycarbex Asia Pte. Ltd. pay to the Company US$527,293 as reimbursement for legal fees and costs; (2) Hycarbex Asia Pte. Ltd. pay to the Company US$597,100 as reimbursement for the costs of arbitration; and (3) Hycarbex Asia Pte. Ltd. return to the Company 1.5 million of the company’s common shares, or if such shares are no longer held by Hycarbex Asia Pte. Ltd., authorizing the cancellation of the shares. The International Chamber of Commerce further authorized a refund to the Company of US$212,000 in filing and hearing fees deposited by the Company. The Company received a deposit in the amount of $213,800 which is reported on the statement of operations as a gain on legal settlement. Hycarbex Asia Pte. Ltd. is currently in liquidation proceedings in Singapore and thus the Company is uncertain whether the financial awards to the Company will be recovered from Hycarbex Asia Pte. Ltd.

On May 11, 2018, the Director General Petroleum Concessions of Pakistan granted to Hycarbex an extension to the Yasin Exploration License through December 31, 2018, and relating back to the date of the request for extension in March, 2013. The extension letter required Hycarbex’s performance within the extension period of various obligations, including seismic, rework of the Haseeb No. 1 Well, work program financial obligations, and procurement of a bank guarantee. In August, 2018, Hycarbex successfully revived the productivity of the Haseeb No. 1 Well through workover activities necessitated by the 2015 intrusion of formation water into the wellbore. Prior to the water intrusion, the Haseeb No. 1 Well produced gas under an Extended Well Test between July 2011 and May 2015. Hycarbex is currently investigating the availability of gas processing services in the area in order to render the gas suitable for sale to the pipeline and, alternatively, the availability of industrial gas customers who do not require processed gas for their operations. The Company anticipates that Hycarbex will begin marketing gas within the second quarter of calendar 2019. Planning has been initiated toward further development and exploration activities for the Yasin Exploration License based on the May 11 extension, the successful revival of the Haseeb No. 1 Well and request for further extension. The seismic and financial conditions of the original extension letter have not been completed. Hycarbex continues to discuss and has requested adjustment to the timetable for these additional obligations with the Director General Petroleum Concessions as part of its request for further extension but has not received a government response as of the date of this report.

We have funded our operations through private loans and the private sale of securities due to the non-payment by Hycarbex of the 18% of production revenues from the Haseeb #1 Well while the litigation and arbitration proceedings with the Hycarbex parties was ongoing. We sold 857,143 shares during the six months ended December 31, 2017 for $60,000. The funds have been and will continue to be utilized for general and administrative expenses incurred by the Company, including the non-recurring legal and accounting costs associated with the pending litigation in Pakistan and, where necessary, the administrative expenses incurred by the newly acquired subsidiary, Hycarbex.

WhileIn August, 2018, Hycarbex successfully revived the April 15 Arbitration Award decreed that we are the 100% owner of Hycarbex, the recent cessation of production from the Haseeb #1 Well due to water infusion into the wellbore will mean that production revenues will not be available as a source of capital unless and until the well is successfully reworked to correct the problem and re-establish commercial production. Based upon available cost estimates, management believes that Hycarbex can bear these workover costs with funds on hand and has formulated the workover plan. While a successful workoverproductivity of the Haseeb #1No. 1 Well cannot be assured, duethrough workover activities. Hycarbex is currently investigating the availability of gas processing services in the area in order to render the gas suitable for sale to the available technical data, management believespipeline and, alternatively, the availability of industrial gas customers who do not require processed gas for their operations. The Company anticipates that Hycarbex will begin marketing gas within the well can be repaired so as to re-establish commercial gas production.second quarter of calendar 2019. Management is likewise optimistic that its ongoing negotiations with potential strategic development partners will result in the consummation of a transaction which will provide needed capital for the development of the other Hycarbex exploration licenses and funding of future administrative costs. We will seek additional loans or make additional sales of securities in the future, as necessary, to fund the Company’s working capital needs as they arise in the event that the anticipated results are not achieved. There is no assurance of management’s ability to secure loans or consummate securities sales to meet working capital requirements.

Officer and Principal Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of December 31, 2017, theseour disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that all information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is: (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms; and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2018, these disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

There have been no material changes in internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the first fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations Over Internal Controls

Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error and circumvention by collusion or overriding of controls. Accordingly, even an effective internal control system may not prevent or detect material misstatements on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

ITEM 1-LEGAL1 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On April 15, 2015, the ICC Arbitration Tribunal rendered its Partial Final Award in the pending arbitration proceedings which declared that the November 9, 2003 sale of 100% of the stock of Hycarbex is void ab initio and of no legal effect on account of the fraud and misrepresentations of Hycarbex, Hydro-Tur and Hycarbex-Asia, thereby returning the Company to its 100% ownership position of the common stock of Hycarbex. In connection with its findings, the ICC Arbitration Tribunal ordered that the register of shareholders for Hycarbex be corrected to reflect the Company as the owner of 100% of the common stock, that Hycarbex and Hycarbex-Asia take any and all steps necessary to effect the rectification of the register of shareholders of Hycarbex to reflect the Company as the owner of 100% of the common stock, and that Hycarbex and Hycarbex-Asia bear all costs of the arbitration proceedings, including the Company’s legal costs, which costs and fees are to be fixed by the ICC Arbitration Tribunal in a subsequent award after submission of the total costs and fees by AEGG. The ICC Arbitration Tribunal dismissed Hydro-Tur’s application for costs. The April 15 Award made moot certain of the pending actions in Pakistan due to the recovery of ownership of 100% of the stock of Hycarbex.

On August 31, 2018, the International Chamber of Commerce Arbitration Tribunal issued its unanimous Final Award completing the arbitration proceeding. The Final Award decrees that: (1) Hycarbex Asia Pte. Ltd. pay to the Company US$527,293 as reimbursement for legal fees and costs; (2) Hycarbex Asia Pte. Ltd. pay to the Company US$597,100 as reimbursement for the costs of arbitration; and (3) Hycarbex Asia Pte. Ltd. return to the Company 1.5 million of the company’s common shares, or if such shares are no longer held by Hycarbex Asia Pte. Ltd., authorizing the cancellation of the shares. The International Chamber of Commerce further authorized a refund to the Company of US$212,000 in filing and hearing fees deposited by the Company. The Company received a deposit in the amount of $213,800 which is reported on the statement of operations as a gain on legal settlement Hycarbex Asia Pte. Ltd. is currently in liquidation proceedings in Singapore and thus the Company is uncertain whether the financial awards to the Company will be recovered from Hycarbex Asia Pte. Ltd. The Company has effected the shareholder and management registration changes ordered by the ICC and has caused Hycarbex to open a new office in Islamabad, Pakistan for Hycarbex’s future operations. New management of Hycarbex has also assumed control of Hycarbex’s Pakistan personnel. New Hycarbex management has begun its efforts to assume complete control of the Pakistan-based assets, including review and appraisement of each asset, interfacing with the local oil and gas regulatory authorities with jurisdiction over those assets to assure regulatory compliance, and continuation of legal proceedings where necessary to enforce its rights. The assumptionGovernment of complete controlPakistan, including the Ministry of Petroleum, the Director General of Petroleum Concessions, the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan and the Pakistan Board of Investment have each advised that they view the Company as the legal owner of Hycarbex. On May 11, 2018, the Government of Pakistan granted to Hycarbex an extension to the Yasin Exploration License relating back to the date of the Hycarbex Pakistan-based assets is expected to take several monthsrequest for extension in March 2013. The extension provided for an expiration of December 31, 2018, and be completed in calendar year 2018.the Company has requested a further extension but has not received a Government reply.

The Company’s re-acquired subsidiary, Hycarbex, is a named defendant in two (2) lawsuits in the jurisdiction of its domicile, Nevis, West Indies. The first lawsuit was filed in 2015 by South Asia Energy Ltd. seeking damages of $34,993,167 plus interest or, alternatively, a declaration that the claimant is entitled to Hycarbex’s interests in the Zamzama North, Sanjawi and Karachi petroleum concessions. Hycarbex has vigorously defended this matter to date. The matter is currently at a pre-trial status review stage by the applicable Nevis court. The second lawsuit was filed in 2016 by South East Asia Energy Holding, AG seeking damages of $20,325,462 plus interest or, alternatively, a declaration that the claimant is entitled to Hycarbex’s interests in the Yasin petroleum concession. Hycarbex has vigorously defended this matter to date and previously obtained a trial court ruling in its favor denying the claimants requests. Hycarbex likewise obtained an affirmation of that favorable ruling in the claimant’s initial appeal proceeding. The claimant has requested the opportunity for a second appellate proceeding before Her Majesty in Council.

ITEM 2 - UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

During the six months ended December 31, 2018, the Company sold no shares. Management does not expect to continue this course of raising capital through securities sales due to the limitation in the number of authorized shares. With the recent cessation in the production from the Haseeb No. 1 well, management believes that the securing of a strategic development partner and/or the sale of selected Hycarbex assets will be necessary to meet our capital needs for future administrative expenses and legal fees and the anticipated operating and development capital costs associated with the Hycarbex assets.
