fair value measurement. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters or derived from such prices or

level of management estimation and judgment, the degree of which is dependent on the price transparency for the instruments or market
and the instrument&#8217;s complexity. The Company reflects transfers between the three levels at the beginning of the reporting period

periodically issues new accounting standards in a continuing effort to improve standards of financial accounting and reporting. The Company

<p style="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt">&#160;</span></p>

<p style="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt">In
August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt&#8212;Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging&#8212;Contracts
in Entity&#8217;s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity&#8217;s Own Equity.
The amendments in this ASU affect entities that issue convertible instruments and/or contracts in an entity&#8217;s own equity. The amendments
in this ASU primarily affect convertible instruments issued with beneficial conversion features or cash conversion features because the
accounting models for those specific features are removed. However, all entities that issue convertible instruments are affected by the
amendments to the disclosure requirements of this ASU. For contracts in an entity&#8217;s own equity, the contracts primarily affected
are freestanding instruments and embedded features that are accounted for as derivatives under the current guidance because of failure
to meet the settlement conditions of the derivatives scope exception related to certain requirements of the settlement assessment. Also
affected is the assessment of whether an embedded conversion feature in a convertible instrument qualifies for the derivatives scope
exception. Additionally, the amendments in this ASU affect the diluted EPS calculation for instruments that may be settled in cash or
shares and for convertible instruments. The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities, excluding entities eligible
to be smaller reporting companies, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal
years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods
within those fiscal years. The Board specified that an entity should adopt the guidance as of the beginning of its annual fiscal year.
The Board decided to allow entities to adopt the guidance through either a modified retrospective method of transition or a fully retrospective
method of transition. The Company is analyzing the effect that adoption will have but does not expect a material impact as a result of
adopting these standards.</span></p>

<p style="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt">The
XTO acquisition has been assessed under the screen test for business combinations under FASB ASC 805, Business Combinations (&#8220;ASC
805&#8221;). The XTO acquisition met the screen test and has been accounted for as an asset acquisition using the acquisition method
of accounting. Under the accounting for asset acquisitions, the acquisition is recorded using a cost accumulation and allocation model
under which the cost of the acquisition is allocated on a relative fair value basis to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Acquisition-related
transaction costs are capitalized as a component of the cost of the assets acquired.</span></p>

<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">The Company&#8217;s primary business is the exploration
and development of oil and natural gas interests. The Company has incurred significant losses from operations, and there is no assurance
that it will achieve sustained profitability or obtain the funds necessary to finance its operations. For all periods presented, the Company&#8217;s
effective tax rate is 0%. The Company has generated net operating losses since inception, which would normally reflect a tax benefit in
the condensed consolidated statement of operations and a deferred asset on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. However, because
of the current uncertainty as to the Company&#8217;s ability to achieve sustained profitability, a valuation reserve has been established
that offsets the amount of any tax benefit available for each period presented in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.</p>

Policies</b></p>

<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 8pt; text-align: justify">The preparation of financial statements
in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (&#8220;GAAP&#8221;) requires us to use our
judgment to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain amounts reported in our financial statements. As additional information
becomes available, these estimates and assumptions are subject to change and thus impact amounts reported in the future. Critical accounting
policies are those accounting policies that involve judgment and uncertainties affecting the application of those policies and the likelihood
that materially different amounts would be reported under different conditions or using differing assumptions. We periodically update
our estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements based on our latest assessment of the current and projected business
and general economic environment. There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies during the three months ended&#160;March
31, 2022.</p>

<p style="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">Revenues increased as a result of more volumes produced
from legacy assets due to successful execution of the Company&#8217;s mission to cost-effectively produce more volumes paired with the
XTO acquisition&#8217;s revenues and volumes brought online from efforts to make the field produce more volumes combined with favorable
pricing environments in the Company&#8217;s core operating areas. Approximately $5.7 million in oil revenues, $740,000 in gas revenue,
and $1.6 million in NGL revenue was attributed to production acquired with the XTO acquisition in the current quarter for a total revenue
impact of the XTO assets of approximately $8.1 million of the total revenue variance between periods.</p>

and in response to the Company&#8217;s execution of its mission to increase production in its legacy assets. The Company has worked to
cost-effectively increase production throughout its asset base utilizing experienced personnel and third-party service providers. Production
and ad valorem taxes have increased as a direct result of the XTO acquisition&#8217;s properties and increased volumes produced and sold.
The acquisition of New Mexico assets accounted for approximately $2.7 million of the increase in lease operating expenses and $655,000
of the increase in production and ad valorem taxes.</p>

Addition of the New Mexico assets resulted in additional costs for accounting and other professional services of approximately $300,000.
The Company also accrued for a loss contingency related to a Texas sales tax audit for which the initial assessment was received in April
2022. The Company accrued $650,000 related to that contingency based on currently available information. The Company intends to seek redetermination
of this assessment. The final payment related to this sales tax audit may be more or less than the accrued amount.</p>

$4.7 million as of March 31, 2022 compared to approximately $1.1 million as of December 31, 2021, resulting in an increase of approximately
$3.7 million. This change is primarily a result of a consistently strong pricing environment in the first quarter of 2022 that increased
the Company&#8217;s cash balance by approximately $1.7 million. Drilling on the four non-operated properties that had begun in the fourth
quarter of 2021 was completed in early 2022, which was a primary reason for the decrease in accounts payable of approximately $1.7 million
between period ends.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company
spent approximately $425,000 on additions to oil and natural gas properties, primarily as a result of non-operated drilling. The Company
anticipates additional capital expenditures in the coming quarters that will be funded with cash flows from operations.</p>

<p style="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 8pt; text-align: justify">As of the end of the period covered by
this report, the Company conducted an evaluation under the supervision of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and President (and
principal financial officer) of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures
pursuant to Securities Exchange Act Rules 13a - 15(e) and 15d - 15(e). Based on this evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive
Officer and President (and principal financial officer) have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of
the period covered by this report are not effective. As described in the Company&#8217;s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2022, our Chief Executive Officer and President (principal
financial officer) concluded that, as of December 31, 2021, our  internal control over financial reporting was not effective
at a reasonable assurance level as we do not have sufficient resources in our accounting function, which restricts the
Company&#8217;s ability to gather, analyze and properly review information related to financial reporting in a timely manner.</p>

<p style="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 8pt; text-align: justify">Upon hiring the Chief Accounting Officer
in October 2021, additional controls were implemented, and other controls were enhanced as initial steps to mitigate the risk of a material
weakness on a go-forward basis. In the first quarter of 2022, the Chief Accounting Officer engaged an outside company to undertake an
internal controls review. This review is scheduled to conclude in the second quarter of 2022. Controls that would strengthen the Company&#8217;s
internal control structure that are identified during the course of the review are being implemented on an ongoing basis.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 6pt; text-align: justify; background-color: white"><i>Changes in Internal
Control Over Financial Reporting</i></p>

<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 6pt; text-align: justify; background-color: white">New and enhanced controls
have been implemented in 2022 as identified by the Chief Accounting Officer to aid in the mitigation of the weakness discussed in the
Annual Report on the Form 10-K that was filed on March 31, 2022. It is management&#8217;s expectation that the Company will implement
enhanced controls throughout 2022 with additional controls implemented as they are identified by the outside consultants. Management will
continue to diligently and rigorously review the financial reporting controls and procedures on an ongoing basis.</p>

financial instrument&#8217;s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the
fair value measurement. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters or derived from such prices or
parameters. Where observable prices or inputs are not available, valuation models are applied. These valuation techniques involve some
level of management estimation and judgment, the degree of which is dependent on the price transparency for the instruments or market
and the instrument&#8217;s complexity. The Company reflects transfers between the three levels at the beginning of the reporting period
in which the availability of observable inputs no longer justifies classification in the original level. There were no transfers between
fair value hierarchy levels for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.</span></p>

periodically issues new accounting standards in a continuing effort to improve standards of financial accounting and reporting. The Company

<p style="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt">&#160;</span></p>

<p style="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt">In
August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt&#8212;Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging&#8212;Contracts
in Entity&#8217;s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity&#8217;s Own Equity.
The amendments in this ASU affect entities that issue convertible instruments and/or contracts in an entity&#8217;s own equity. The amendments
in this ASU primarily affect convertible instruments issued with beneficial conversion features or cash conversion features because the
accounting models for those specific features are removed. However, all entities that issue convertible instruments are affected by the
amendments to the disclosure requirements of this ASU. For contracts in an entity&#8217;s own equity, the contracts primarily affected
are freestanding instruments and embedded features that are accounted for as derivatives under the current guidance because of failure
to meet the settlement conditions of the derivatives scope exception related to certain requirements of the settlement assessment. Also
affected is the assessment of whether an embedded conversion feature in a convertible instrument qualifies for the derivatives scope
exception. Additionally, the amendments in this ASU affect the diluted EPS calculation for instruments that may be settled in cash or
shares and for convertible instruments. The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities, excluding entities eligible
to be smaller reporting companies, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal
years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods
within those fiscal years. The Board specified that an entity should adopt the guidance as of the beginning of its annual fiscal year.
The Board decided to allow entities to adopt the guidance through either a modified retrospective method of transition or a fully retrospective
method of transition. The Company is analyzing the effect that adoption will have but does not expect a material impact as a result of
adopting these standards.</span></p>

March 12, 2021 the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary Empire New Mexico, entered into a purchase and sale agreement with XTO
Holdings, LLC (a subsidiary of ExxonMobil) (the &#8220;Seller&#8217;) to acquire, among other things, certain oil and natural gas properties
in New Mexico. The purchase price was $<span id="xdx_90F_ecustom--SupplementalDeferredPurchasePrice1_c20220101__20220331_zHGVb85Ky2Ad" title="Purchase price">17,800,000</span> subject to customary adjustments. The transaction closed on May 14, 2021 with an effective

<p style="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt">The
XTO acquisition has been assessed under the screen test for business combinations under FASB ASC 805, Business Combinations (&#8220;ASC
805&#8221;). The XTO acquisition met the screen test and has been accounted for as an asset acquisition using the acquisition method
of accounting. Under the accounting for asset acquisitions, the acquisition is recorded using a cost accumulation and allocation model
under which the cost of the acquisition is allocated on a relative fair value basis to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Acquisition-related
transaction costs are capitalized as a component of the cost of the assets acquired.</span></p>

a lessee, the Company leases its corporate office headquarters in Tulsa, Oklahoma and three field offices. The leases expire between
2024 and 2027. The corporate office has an option to renew for an additional five-year term. The option to renew the lease is generally
not considered reasonably certain to be exercised. Therefore, the period covered by such optional period is not included in the determination
of the term of the lease and the lease payments during these periods are similarly excluded from the calculation of right-of-use lease
asset and lease liability balances.</span></p>

the variability is resolved, typically during the period in which they are paid. Variable right-of-use lease payments typically include
charges for property taxes, insurance, and variable payments related to non-lease components, including common area maintenance.</span></p>

financial instrument&#8217;s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the
fair value measurement. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters or derived from such prices or
parameters. Where observable prices or inputs are not available, valuation models are applied. These valuation techniques involve some
level of management estimation and judgment, the degree of which is dependent on the price transparency for the instruments or market
and the instrument&#8217;s complexity. The Company reflects transfers between the three levels at the beginning of the reporting period
in which the availability of observable inputs no longer justifies classification in the original level. There were no transfers between
fair value hierarchy levels for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.</span></p>

<p style="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt">&#160;</span></p>

<p style="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt">In
August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt&#8212;Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging&#8212;Contracts
in Entity&#8217;s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity&#8217;s Own Equity.
The amendments in this ASU affect entities that issue convertible instruments and/or contracts in an entity&#8217;s own equity. The amendments
in this ASU primarily affect convertible instruments issued with beneficial conversion features or cash conversion features because the
accounting models for those specific features are removed. However, all entities that issue convertible instruments are affected by the
amendments to the disclosure requirements of this ASU. For contracts in an entity&#8217;s own equity, the contracts primarily affected
are freestanding instruments and embedded features that are accounted for as derivatives under the current guidance because of failure
to meet the settlement conditions of the derivatives scope exception related to certain requirements of the settlement assessment. Also
affected is the assessment of whether an embedded conversion feature in a convertible instrument qualifies for the derivatives scope
exception. Additionally, the amendments in this ASU affect the diluted EPS calculation for instruments that may be settled in cash or
shares and for convertible instruments. The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities, excluding entities eligible
to be smaller reporting companies, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal
years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods
within those fiscal years. The Board specified that an entity should adopt the guidance as of the beginning of its annual fiscal year.
The Board decided to allow entities to adopt the guidance through either a modified retrospective method of transition or a fully retrospective
method of transition. The Company is analyzing the effect that adoption will have but does not expect a material impact as a result of
adopting these standards.</span></p>

Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") fair value measurement standards define fair value, establish a consistent framework
for measuring fair value and establish a fair value hierarchy based on the observability of inputs used to measure fair value.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt"&gt;&#160;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

three-level fair value hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements defined by ASC Topic 820 is as follows:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 5.9pt 0 0"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&#160;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

1&lt;/b&gt; &#x2013; Unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets
or liabilities. An active market is defined as a market where transactions for the financial instrument occur with sufficient frequency
and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 5.7pt 6pt 0 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Level
2&lt;/b&gt; &#x2013; Inputs, other than quoted prices within Level 1, that are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability
through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the instrument&#x2019;s anticipated life.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 6.05pt 6.5pt 0 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Level
3&lt;/b&gt; &#x2013; Prices or valuations that require unobservable inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.
Valuation under Level 3 generally involves a significant degree of judgment from management.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

financial instrument&#x2019;s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the
fair value measurement. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters or derived from such prices or
parameters. Where observable prices or inputs are not available, valuation models are applied. These valuation techniques involve some
level of management estimation and judgment, the degree of which is dependent on the price transparency for the instruments or market
and the instrument&#x2019;s complexity. The Company reflects transfers between the three levels at the beginning of the reporting period
in which the availability of observable inputs no longer justifies classification in the original level. There were no transfers between
fair value hierarchy levels for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/i&gt;&#x2013; Derivative financial instruments are carried at fair value and measured on a recurring basis. The Company&#x2019;s commodity
price hedges are valued based on discounted future cash flow models that are primarily based on published forward commodity price curves;
thus, these inputs are designated as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Company applies the provisions of fair value measurement on a non-recurring basis to its non-financial assets and liabilities, including
oil and gas properties and asset retirement obligations. These assets and liabilities are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis
but are subject to fair value adjustments if events or changes in certain circumstances indicate that adjustments may be necessary. No
triggering events that require assessment of such items were observed during the three months ended March 31, 2022.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

ASC 850,&#160;&lt;i&gt;Related Party Disclosures&lt;/i&gt;&#160;(&#x201c;FASB ASC 850&#x201d;) requires that transactions with related parties that
would have influence in decision making shall be disclosed so that users of the financial statements can evaluate their significance.
Related party transactions typically occur within the context of the following relationships: affiliates of the entity; entities for
which investments in their equity securities is typically accounted for under the equity method by the investing entity; trusts for the
benefit of employees; principal owners of the entity and members of their immediate families; management of the entity and members of
their immediate families; and other parties that can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting
parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully
pursuing its own separate interests.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt"&gt;FASB
periodically issues new accounting standards in a continuing effort to improve standards of financial accounting and reporting. The Company
has reviewed the recently issued pronouncements and concluded that the following new accounting standards are applicable:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt"&gt;&#160;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt"&gt;In
August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt&#x2014;Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging&#x2014;Contracts
in Entity&#x2019;s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity&#x2019;s Own Equity.
The amendments in this ASU affect entities that issue convertible instruments and/or contracts in an entity&#x2019;s own equity. The amendments
in this ASU primarily affect convertible instruments issued with beneficial conversion features or cash conversion features because the
accounting models for those specific features are removed. However, all entities that issue convertible instruments are affected by the
amendments to the disclosure requirements of this ASU. For contracts in an entity&#x2019;s own equity, the contracts primarily affected
are freestanding instruments and embedded features that are accounted for as derivatives under the current guidance because of failure
to meet the settlement conditions of the derivatives scope exception related to certain requirements of the settlement assessment. Also
affected is the assessment of whether an embedded conversion feature in a convertible instrument qualifies for the derivatives scope
exception. Additionally, the amendments in this ASU affect the diluted EPS calculation for instruments that may be settled in cash or
shares and for convertible instruments. The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities, excluding entities eligible
to be smaller reporting companies, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal
years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods
within those fiscal years. The Board specified that an entity should adopt the guidance as of the beginning of its annual fiscal year.
The Board decided to allow entities to adopt the guidance through either a modified retrospective method of transition or a fully retrospective
method of transition. The Company is analyzing the effect that adoption will have but does not expect a material impact as a result of
adopting these standards.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

between related parties are considered to be related party transactions even though they may not be given accounting recognition. FASB
ASC 850,&#160;&lt;i&gt;Related Party Disclosures&lt;/i&gt;&#160;(&#x201c;FASB ASC 850&#x201d;) requires that transactions with related parties that
would have influence in decision making shall be disclosed so that users of the financial statements can evaluate their significance.
Related party transactions typically occur within the context of the following relationships: affiliates of the entity; entities for
which investments in their equity securities is typically accounted for under the equity method by the investing entity; trusts for the
benefit of employees; principal owners of the entity and members of their immediate families; management of the entity and members of
their immediate families; and other parties that can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting
parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully
pursuing its own separate interests.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

periodically issues new accounting standards in a continuing effort to improve standards of financial accounting and reporting. The Company
has reviewed the recently issued pronouncements and concluded that the following new accounting standards are applicable:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt"&gt;&#160;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt"&gt;In
August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt&#x2014;Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging&#x2014;Contracts
in Entity&#x2019;s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity&#x2019;s Own Equity.
The amendments in this ASU affect entities that issue convertible instruments and/or contracts in an entity&#x2019;s own equity. The amendments
in this ASU primarily affect convertible instruments issued with beneficial conversion features or cash conversion features because the
accounting models for those specific features are removed. However, all entities that issue convertible instruments are affected by the
amendments to the disclosure requirements of this ASU. For contracts in an entity&#x2019;s own equity, the contracts primarily affected
are freestanding instruments and embedded features that are accounted for as derivatives under the current guidance because of failure
to meet the settlement conditions of the derivatives scope exception related to certain requirements of the settlement assessment. Also
affected is the assessment of whether an embedded conversion feature in a convertible instrument qualifies for the derivatives scope
exception. Additionally, the amendments in this ASU affect the diluted EPS calculation for instruments that may be settled in cash or
shares and for convertible instruments. The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities, excluding entities eligible
to be smaller reporting companies, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal
years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods
within those fiscal years. The Board specified that an entity should adopt the guidance as of the beginning of its annual fiscal year.
The Board decided to allow entities to adopt the guidance through either a modified retrospective method of transition or a fully retrospective
method of transition. The Company is analyzing the effect that adoption will have but does not expect a material impact as a result of
adopting these standards.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Company follows the successful efforts method of accounting for its oil and natural gas properties. Under this method, costs to acquire
oil and natural gas properties and costs incurred to drill and equip development and exploratory wells are capitalized. Exploration costs
are charged to operations as incurred. Upon sale or retirement of oil and natural gas properties, the costs and related accumulated depreciation,
depletion and amortization are eliminated from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss is recognized.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt"&gt;On
March 12, 2021 the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary Empire New Mexico, entered into a purchase and sale agreement with XTO
Holdings, LLC (a subsidiary of ExxonMobil) (the &#x201c;Seller&#x2019;) to acquire, among other things, certain oil and natural gas properties
in New Mexico. The purchase price was $&lt;span id="xdx_90F_ecustom--SupplementalDeferredPurchasePrice1_c20220101__20220331_zHGVb85Ky2Ad" title="Purchase price"&gt;17,800,000&lt;/span&gt; subject to customary adjustments. The transaction closed on May 14, 2021 with an effective
date of January 1, 2021.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt"&gt;&#160;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt"&gt;The
XTO acquisition has been assessed under the screen test for business combinations under FASB ASC 805, Business Combinations (&#x201c;ASC
805&#x201d;). The XTO acquisition met the screen test and has been accounted for as an asset acquisition using the acquisition method
of accounting. Under the accounting for asset acquisitions, the acquisition is recorded using a cost accumulation and allocation model
under which the cost of the acquisition is allocated on a relative fair value basis to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Acquisition-related
transaction costs are capitalized as a component of the cost of the assets acquired.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt"&gt;&#160;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt"&gt;As
a condition of the sale, the Company purchased a $&lt;span id="xdx_909_ecustom--PurchaseOfPerformanceBond_c20220101__20220331_zn6CM7L10C23" title="Purchase of performance bond"&gt;5,000,000&lt;/span&gt; performance bond for the benefit of the seller for proper plugging, abandonment
and restoration of the purchased properties. The performance bond is collateralized with a letter of credit in the amount of $&lt;span id="xdx_902_eus-gaap--LettersOfCreditOutstandingAmount_iI_c20220331_zWL2gTCNfFaf" title="Letters of credit outstanding amount"&gt;3,750,000&lt;/span&gt;.
To effect the letter of credit, the Company entered into a Promissory Note Agreement with Bank of Oklahoma, NA in the amount of $&lt;span id="xdx_904_eus-gaap--LettersOfCreditOutstandingAmount_iI_c20220331_zgs6QxAzI9vd" title="Letters of credit outstanding amount"&gt;3,750,000&lt;/span&gt;
which is due on demand with an interest rate established by the Bank, currently at &lt;span id="xdx_90C_eus-gaap--DebtInstrumentInterestRateEffectivePercentage_iI_dp_c20220331_zHL3vdD7YNY" title="Intersest rate"&gt;4&lt;/span&gt;%. The Promissory Note, and associated letter of
credit, is collateralized with a bank certificate of deposit in a corresponding amount. In addition, the Company is required to deposit
$&lt;span id="xdx_907_ecustom--Deposit_iI_c20220331__srt--RangeAxis__srt--MinimumMember_z7sOckvxWSyf" title="Deposit"&gt;100,000&lt;/span&gt; per month, up to $&lt;span id="xdx_900_ecustom--Deposit_iI_c20220331__srt--RangeAxis__srt--MaximumMember_zWHGQR1WffXc"&gt;1,250,000&lt;/span&gt;, into a sinking fund to be held by the surety.

amounts to $&lt;span id="xdx_905_ecustom--MonthlyPayment_c20220101__20220331_zL1SvRK93Wzf" title="Monthly payment"&gt;160,000&lt;/span&gt; in response to additional bonding requested by the State of New Mexico.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

August 6, 2020 the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Empire Texas, entered into a joint development agreement (the &#x201c;JDA&#x201d;)
with Petroleum &amp;amp; Independent Exploration, LLC and related entities (&#x201c;PIE&#x201d;), a related party (See Note 13), dated August
1, 2020. Under the terms of the JDA, PIE will perform recompletion or workover on specified mutually agreed upon wells (&#x201c;Workover
Wells&#x201d;) owned by Empire Texas. To fund the work, PIE entered into a term loan agreement with Empire Texas dated August 1, 2020,
whereby PIE will loan up to $&lt;span id="xdx_905_eus-gaap--LoansPayable_iI_c20220331_zdAl4jmgaAvl" title="Loan from related party"&gt;2,000,000&lt;/span&gt;, at an interest rate of 6% per annum, maturing &lt;span id="xdx_902_eus-gaap--DebtInstrumentMaturityDate_dd_c20200804__20200806_zRbcqcqF1xzb" title="Maturity date"&gt;August 7, 2024&lt;/span&gt; unless terminated earlier by PIE.
Proceeds of the loan will be used for recompletion or workover of the Workover Wells. Refer to Note 8 for the amount advanced on the
loan as of period-end. &lt;span id="xdx_905_ecustom--DescriptionOfWorkingAndRevenueInterests_c20200804__20200806_zeBHwpLsXUs8" title="Description of working and revenue interest"&gt;As part of the JDA, Empire Texas will assign to PIE a combined 85% working and revenue interest in the Workover
Wells. Of the assigned interest, 70% working and revenue interest will be used to repay the obligations under the term loan agreement.
Once the term loan is repaid, PIE will reassign a 35% working and revenue interest to Empire Texas in each of the Workover Wells and
retain a 50% working and revenue interest.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="background-color: white"&gt;To the extent the cash flows from the revenue interest
are insufficient to repay the obligations under the term loan, the Company remains required to repay the obligation and the activity
resulting from the JDA is being treated as a carried interest with a corresponding term loan.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to commodity price fluctuations. Commodity derivative instruments
are used to reduce the effect of volatility of price changes on the oil and natural gas the Company produces and sells. The Company does
not enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes. The Company&#x2019;s derivative financial instruments
consist of put options.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Company does not designate its derivative instruments to qualify for hedge accounting. Accordingly, the Company reflects changes in the
fair value of its derivative instruments in its consolidated statements of operations as they occur. Unrealized gains and losses related
to the contracts are recognized and recorded as an asset or liability on the Company&#x2019;s consolidated balance sheets.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

a lessee, the Company leases its corporate office headquarters in Tulsa, Oklahoma and three field offices. The leases expire between
2024 and 2027. The corporate office has an option to renew for an additional five-year term. The option to renew the lease is generally
not considered reasonably certain to be exercised. Therefore, the period covered by such optional period is not included in the determination
of the term of the lease and the lease payments during these periods are similarly excluded from the calculation of right-of-use lease
asset and lease liability balances.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Company recognizes right-of-use lease expense on a straight-line basis, except for certain variable expenses that are recognized when
the variability is resolved, typically during the period in which they are paid. Variable right-of-use lease payments typically include

March 8, 2022, the Company formalized the issuance of preferred stock as was required under the terms of the Company's May 2021 financing
agreements with Energy Evolution (Master Fund), Ltd. (the "Fund") and issued six shares of Series A Voting Preferred Stock.
&lt;span style="background-color: white"&gt;The Series A Voting Preferred Stock was issued in connection with the strategic investment in the
Company by Energy Evolution (Master Fund), Ltd. (the &#x201c;Fund&#x201d;). For so long as the Series A Voting Preferred Stock is outstanding,
the Company&#x2019;s board of directors will consist of six directors. Three of the directors are designated as the Series A Directors
and the three other directors (each, a &#x201c;common director&#x201d;) are elected by the holders of common stock and/or any preferred
stock (other than the Series A Voting Preferred Stock) granted the right to vote on the common directors. Any Series A Director may be
removed with or without cause but only by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Series A Voting Preferred Stock voting
separately and as a single class. The holders of the Series A Voting Preferred Stock have the exclusive right, voting separately and
as a single class, to vote on the election, removal and/or replacement of the Series A Directors. Holders of common stock or other preferred
stock have no right to vote on the Series A Directors. The approval of the holders of the Series A Voting Preferred Stock, voting separately
and as a single class, is required to authorize any resolution or other action to issue or modify the number, voting rights or any other
rights, privileges, benefits or characteristics of the Series A Voting Preferred Stock, including without limitation, any action to modify
the number, structure and/or composition of the Company&#x2019;s current board of directors.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Series A Voting Preferred Stock is held by Phil Mulacek, co-chairman of the board of directors and one of the principals of the Fund,

Series A Voting Preferred Stock is not entitled to receive any dividends or distributions of cash or other property except in the event

of the Company&#x2019;s common stock but after any amount is paid to the holders of the Company&#x2019;s senior securities, the holders
of the Series A Voting Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive an amount per share equal to $1.00.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 9.5pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;On August 27, 2021, the Board of Directors of
the Company adopted the Empire Petroleum Corporation 2021 Stock and Incentive Compensation Plan (the &#x201c;Incentive Plan&#x201d;).

of the common stock on the date of the grant. Compensation expense for granted RSUs is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting
and is net of forfeitures, as incurred. Stock-based compensation is included in General and Administrative expense in the Condensed Consolidated
Statements of Operations and is recorded with a corresponding increase in Additional Paid-in Capital within the Condensed Consolidated
Balance Sheets.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
