Energy Corp. was formed as a Wyoming corporation in 1966. On August 3, 2022, the Company changed its state of incorporation from the
State of Wyoming to the State of Delaware by means of a Plan of Conversion, effective August 3, 2022. We are an independent energy company
focused on the acquisition and development of oil and natural gas producing properties in the continental United States. Our business
activities are currently focused in West Texas, South Texas, the Gulf Coast, the Rockies and mid-continent.</FONT></P>

working interest varies by project and may change over time based on the terms of our leases and operating agreements. These projects
may result in numerous wells being drilled over the next three to five years depending on, among other things, commodity prices and the
availability of capital resources required to fund the expenditures. We are also actively pursuing potential acquisitions of exploration,
development and production-stage oil and natural gas properties or companies.</FONT></P>

own working interests in a geographically and geologically diverse portfolio of oil-weighted prospects in varying stages of exploration
and development. Prospect stages range from prospect origination, including geologic and geophysical mapping, to leasing, exploratory
drilling and development. The Company participates in the prospect stages either for its own account or with prospective partners to
enlarge its oil and natural gas lease ownership base.</FONT></P>

have historically explored for and produced oil and natural gas through a non-operator business model. As a non-operator, we rely on
our operating partners to propose, permit, drill, complete and produce oil and natural gas wells. Before a well is drilled, the operator
provides all oil and natural gas interest owners in the designated well the opportunity to participate in the drilling and completion
costs and revenues of the well on a pro-rata basis. Our operating partners also produce, transport, market and account for all oil and
natural gas production. With recent acquisitions in 2020 and 2022, we now operate approximately 91% of our production.</FONT></P>

in their exploration and development projects, acquisition of existing companies, and the purchase of oil producing assets, moving forward.
In addition, we plan to grow production by performing workovers on operated idle wells acquired to return them back to production.</FONT></P>

investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. The prospectus supplement applicable to each offering of our securities
will, and any free writing prospectus may, contain a discussion of the risks applicable to an investment in our securities. Prior to
making a decision about investing in our securities, you should carefully consider the specific factors discussed under the heading &ldquo;<U>Risk
Factors</U>&rdquo; in the applicable prospectus supplement and any information contained in any free writing prospectus, together with
all of the other information contained or incorporated by reference in the prospectus supplement(s) or appearing or incorporated by reference
in this prospectus. You should also consider the risks, uncertainties and assumptions discussed under Item 1A, &ldquo;<U>Risk Factors,</U>&rdquo;
in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, and Item 1A, &ldquo;<U>Risk Factors</U>&rdquo; in our most recent Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q, all of which are incorporated herein by reference, as such may be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time by
other reports we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission in the future. For more information, see &ldquo;<A HREF="#S1_006">Incorporation of Certain Documents By Reference.</A>&rdquo; The risks and uncertainties we have described are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties
not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our business and operations. If one or more of the possibilities
described as risks actually occurs, our operating results and financial condition would likely suffer and the trading price of our securities
could fall, causing you to lose some or all of your investment in the securities we are offering. In addition, please read &ldquo;<A HREF="#Gv_004">Forward-Looking
Statements</A>&rdquo; in this prospectus, below, where we describe additional uncertainties associated with our business and the forward-looking
statements included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus.</FONT></P>

optional or other special rights and qualifications, limitations and restrictions of each series, including dividend rights, dividend
rates, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, liquidation preferences and the number of shares constituting any series.
The existence of authorized but unissued preferred stock could reduce our attractiveness as a target for an unsolicited takeover bid
since we could, for example, issue shares of preferred stock to parties who might oppose such a takeover bid or shares that contain terms
the potential acquirer may find unattractive. This may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control, may discourage
bids for the common stock at a premium over the market price of the common stock, and may adversely affect the market price of, and the
voting and other rights of the holders of, our common stock.</FONT></P>

following provisions would not however apply to suits brought to enforce a duty or liability created by the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the &ldquo;<U>Securities Act</U>&rdquo;), the Exchange Act, or any other claim for which the U.S. federal courts have exclusive
jurisdiction. Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal jurisdiction over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability
created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder and Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction
for federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act, and an investor cannot
waive compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. Notwithstanding the above, to prevent having
to litigate claims in multiple jurisdictions and the threat of inconsistent or contrary rulings by different courts, among other considerations,
our Certificate of Incorporation provides that unless the Company gives an Alternative Forum Consent, the U.S. federal district courts
will be the exclusive forum for resolving any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act. However, there
is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce such a provision. While the Delaware courts have determined that such choice of forum
provisions are facially valid, a stockholder may nevertheless seek to bring a claim in a venue other than those designated in the exclusive
forum provisions. In such instance, we would expect to vigorously assert the validity and enforceability of the exclusive forum provisions
of our Certificate of Incorporation. This may require significant additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions
and there can be no assurance that the provisions will be enforced by a court in those other jurisdictions.</FONT></P>

otherwise specified in the related prospectus supplement, each series of securities will be a new issue with no established trading market,
other than shares of common stock of the Company, which are listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market. Any common stock sold pursuant to a

where applicable, to official notice of issuance and where applicable, subject to the requirements of the exchange (which in some cases
require stockholder approval for any transactions which would result in the issuance of more than 20% of our then outstanding shares
of common stock or voting rights representing over 20% of our then outstanding shares of stock). We may elect to list any series of debt
securities or preferred stock, on an exchange, but we are not obligated to do so. It is possible that one or more underwriters may make
a market in the securities, but such underwriters will not be obligated to do so and may discontinue any market making at any time without
notice. No assurance can be given as to the liquidity of, or the trading market for, any offered securities.</FONT></P>

connection with an offering, the underwriters may purchase and sell securities in the open market. These transactions may include short
sales, stabilizing transactions and purchases to cover positions created by short sales. Short sales involve the sale by the underwriters
of a greater number of securities than they are required to purchase in an offering. Stabilizing transactions consist of bids or purchases
made for the purpose of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the securities while an offering is in progress. The
underwriters also may impose a penalty bid. This occurs when a particular underwriter repays to the underwriters a portion of the underwriting
discount received by it because the underwriters have repurchased securities sold by or for the account of that underwriter in stabilizing
or short-covering transactions. These activities by the underwriters may stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of
the securities. As a result, the price of the securities may be higher than the price that otherwise might exist in the open market.
If these activities are commenced, they may be discontinued by the underwriters at any time. Underwriters may engage in overallotment.
If any underwriters create a short position in the securities in an offering in which they sell more securities than are set forth on
the cover page of the applicable prospectus supplement, the underwriters may reduce that short position by purchasing the securities
in the open market.</FONT></P>

by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted
by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the

whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.</FONT></P>

estoppel, diligence, unconscionability, right to cure, election of remedies, and the discretion of any court of competent jurisdiction

may be exercised in addition to or with any other right or remedy, or that election of a particular remedy or remedies does not preclude
recourse to one or more remedies, (ii) prohibiting waivers of any terms of the Securities other than in writing, or prohibiting oral
modifications thereof or modification by course of dealing, or (iii) that may be unenforceable under certain circumstances but the inclusion
of which does not affect the validity of the Security taken as a whole. In addition, our opinions are subject to the effect of judicial
