SUMMARY
This summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this prospectus but might not contain
all of the information that is important to you. Before investing in our common stock, you should
read the entire prospectus carefully, including the Risk Factors section and our financial
statements and the note thereto included elsewhere in this prospectus.
For purposes of this prospectus, unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, all
references herein to Foothills, we, us, our, and the Company refer to Foothills Resources
Inc., a Nevada corporation, and our subsidiaries.
Our Company
Foothills Resources, Inc. is a growth-oriented independent energy company engaged in the
acquisition, exploration, exploitation and development of oil and natural gas properties. The
Company currently holds interests in properties in the Eel River Basin, in northern California, the
Goose Creek Field and Goose Creek East Field, both in Harris County, Texas, the Cleveland Field,
located in Liberty County, Texas, and the Saratoga Field located in Hardin County, Texas, and is
planning to acquire interests in the Anadarko Basin in southwest Oklahoma.
Our business strategy is to identify and exploit low to moderate risk resources in and adjacent to
existing or indicated producing areas that can be quickly developed and put on production at low
cost, including the acquisition of producing properties with exploitation and exploration
potential. We also intend to take advantage of our expertise to develop exploratory projects in
focus areas and to participate with other companies in those areas to explore for oil and natural
gas using state-of-the-art 3D seismic technology. Our management intends to use its extensive
domestic and international oil and gas experience to establish and grow the Company.
Foothills Resources, Inc. took its present form on April 6, 2006, when our wholly-owned subsidiary,
Brasada Acquisition Corp., and Brasada California, Inc. executed a Merger Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization. On April 6, 2006, Brasada Acquisition Corp. merged with and into Brasada
California, Inc., with Brasada remaining as the surviving corporation and our wholly-owned
subsidiary. The holders of Brasadas issued and outstanding capital stock before the merger
surrendered all of their issued and outstanding capital stock of Brasada and received 17,375,000
shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share. Our stockholders before the merger retained
12,625,006 shares of common stock.
Contemporaneously with the closing of the Merger, we split-off another wholly-owned subsidiary,
Foothills Leaseco, Inc., a Nevada corporation, through the sale of all of the outstanding capital
stock of Foothills Leaseco, Inc. As a consequence of the sale of Foothills Leaseco, Inc., we
discontinued all of our business operations which we conducted prior to the closing of the merger
with Brasada, and spun off all material liabilities existing prior to that date, in any way related
to our pre-closing business operations. As a result of these transactions, our business and
operations changed from a pre-exploration stage company prior to the merger and split-off to a
company engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and natural gas properties
following the merger.
Our primary operations are now those formerly operated by Brasada California, Inc., as well as
other business activities which we have developed since April, 2006, as described in this
Prospectus.
Recent Developments
On April 6, 2006 and on April 20, 2006, we closed a prior private offering of an aggregate of
17,142,857 units, each consisting of one share of our common stock and a warrant to acquire
three-quarters of a share of our common stock for five years at a purchase price of $1.00 per whole
share. The total consideration we received in this offering was $12,000,000. Some of the
consideration for units sold in this April, 2006 offering was in the form of convertible
debentures, which converted into units on a dollar-for-dollar basis upon the closing of the
offering and the closing of the merger between our wholly-owned subsidiary, Brasada Acquisition
Corp., and Brasada California, Inc.
On September 8, 2006, we consummated an acquisition of certain properties formerly owned by TARH
E&P Holdings, L.P. in Texas, pursuant to two purchase and sale agreements executed with TARH E&P
Holdings, L.P. on June 21, 2006. In this acquisition, our wholly-owned subsidiary, Foothills Texas,
Inc., acquired four producing
1
properties in southeastern Texas, including the Goose Creek, Goose Creek East, Saratoga and
Cleveland Fields. The purchase and sale agreements provided for the payment of aggregate cash
consideration to TARH E&P Holdings, L.P. of $57.5 million and the issuance of common stock with a
deemed value of $4.5 million. Prior to the closing date, on June 22, 2006, August 14, 2006 and
August 23, 2006, we made cash payments to TARH E&P Holdings, L.P. of $3,099,000, $1,549,500 and
$774,750 in accordance with the agreements. After adjustment for preliminary purchase price
adjustments as provided in the purchase and sale agreements, we paid cash consideration to TARH E&P
Holdings, L.P. on September 8, 2006 of $51,894,500 and issued 1,605,345 shares of our common stock.
To finance the above acquisition, we executed a Credit and Guaranty Agreement with J. Aron &
Company on September 8, 2006, providing for a credit facility under which we borrowed $42.5
million. The credit facility will terminate and all amounts borrowed under the facility will be due
and payable four years following the closing date. The facility is secured by liens and security
interests on substantially all of our assets and those of our subsidiaries, including 100% of the
value of all oil and gas reserves of us and our subsidiaries. On the closing date of the facility,
we issued to Goldman, Sachs & Co., an affiliate of J. Aron & Company, a warrant to purchase
3,000,000 shares of common stock for five years at an exercise price of $2.75 per share.
Further, in order to raise additional funds to consummate the acquisition from TARH E&P Holdings,
L.P., we completed a private offering of units consisting of shares of our common stock and
warrants to acquire our common stock on September 8, 2006 and September 27, 2006. Each unit we sold
in the offering consisted of one share of common stock and a warrant to acquire one-half share of
common stock for five years at an exercise price of $2.75 per share. On the closing dates of the
offering, we received an aggregate of $22,711,059 in proceeds from the offering, through the sale
of 10,093,804 units. Therefore, we issued to investors, on the closing date, 10,093,804 shares of
our common stock and warrants to acquire 5,046,919 shares of our common stock.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS
We have a limited operating history for you to evaluate our business. We may never attain
profitability.
We are engaged in the business of oil and gas exploration and development, and have limited current
oil or natural gas operations. The business of acquiring, exploring for, developing and producing
oil and natural gas reserves is inherently risky. As an oil and gas acquisition, exploration and
development company with limited operating history, it is difficult for potential investors to
evaluate our business. Our proposed operations are therefore subject to all of the risks inherent
in light of the expenses, difficulties, complications and delays frequently encountered in
connection with the formation of any new business, as well as those risks that are specific to the
oil and gas industry. We may never overcome these obstacles.
Our business is speculative and dependent upon the implementation of our business plan and our
ability to enter into agreements with third parties for the rights to exploit potential oil and
natural gas reserves on terms that will be commercially viable for us.
Our lack of diversification will increase the risk of an investment in Foothills, and our financial
condition and results of operations may deteriorate if we fail to diversify.
Our business focus is on the oil and gas industry in a limited number of properties, initially in
California, Oklahoma and Texas, with the intention of expanding elsewhere. Larger companies have
the ability to manage their risk by diversification. However, we lack diversification, in terms of
both the nature and geographic scope of our business. As a result, we will likely be impacted more
acutely by factors affecting our industry or the regions in which we operate than we would if our
business were more diversified, enhancing our risk profile. If we cannot diversify our operations,
our financial condition and results of operations could deteriorate.
Strategic relationships upon which we may rely are subject to change, which may diminish our
ability to conduct our operations.
Our ability to successfully acquire additional properties, to discover reserves, to participate in
drilling opportunities and to identify and enter into commercial arrangements with customers will
depend on developing and maintaining close working relationships with industry participants and on
our ability to select and evaluate suitable properties and to consummate transactions in a highly
competitive environment. These realities are subject to change and may impair our ability to grow.
To develop our business, we will endeavor to use the business relationships of our management to
enter into strategic relationships, which may take the form of joint ventures with other private
parties and contractual arrangements with other oil and gas companies, including those that supply
equipment and other resources that we will use in our business. We may not be able to establish
these strategic relationships, or if established, we may not be able to maintain them. In addition,
the dynamics of our relationships with strategic partners may require us to incur expenses or
undertake activities we would not otherwise be inclined to in order to fulfill our obligations to
these partners or maintain our relationships. If our strategic relationships are not established or
maintained, our business prospects may be limited, which could diminish our ability to conduct our
operations.
Competition in obtaining rights to explore and develop oil and gas reserves and to market our
production may impair our business.
The oil and gas industry is highly competitive. Other oil and gas companies may seek to acquire oil
and gas leases and other properties and services we will need to operate our business in the areas
in which we expect to operate. This competition is increasingly intense as prices of oil and
natural gas on the commodities markets have risen in recent years. Additionally, other companies
engaged in our line of business may compete with us from time to time in obtaining capital from
investors. Competitors include larger companies, which, in particular, may have access to greater
resources, may be more successful in the recruitment and retention of qualified employees and may
conduct their own refining and petroleum marketing operations, which may give them a competitive
advantage. In addition, actual or potential competitors may be strengthened through the acquisition
of additional assets and interests. If we are unable to compete effectively or adequately respond
to competitive pressures, this inability may materially adversely affect our results of operation
and financial condition.
4
We may be unable to obtain additional capital that we will require to implement our business plan,
which could restrict our ability to grow.
We expect that our current capital and our other existing resources will be sufficient only to
provide a limited amount of working capital, and the revenues generated from our properties in
Texas, California and Oklahoma alone will not be sufficient to fund both our continuing operations
and our planned growth. We will require additional capital to continue to operate our business
beyond the initial phase of our current properties, and to further expand our exploration and
development programs to additional properties. We may be unable to obtain additional capital
required.
Future acquisitions and future exploration, development, production and marketing activities, as
well as our administrative requirements (such as salaries, insurance expenses and general overhead
expenses, as well as legal compliance costs and accounting expenses) will require a substantial
amount of additional capital and cash flow.
We may pursue sources of additional capital through various financing transactions or arrangements,
including joint venturing of projects, debt financing, equity financing or other means. We may not
be successful in locating suitable financing transactions in the time period required or at all,
and we may not obtain the capital we require by other means. If we do not succeed in raising
additional capital, our resources may not be sufficient to fund our operations going forward.
Any additional capital raised through the sale of equity may dilute the ownership percentage of our
stockholders. This could also result in a decrease in the fair market value of our equity
securities because our assets would be owned by a larger pool of outstanding equity. The terms of
securities we issue in future capital transactions may be more favorable to our new investors, and
may include preferences, superior voting rights and the issuance of warrants or other derivative
securities, and issuances of incentive awards under equity employee incentive plans, which may have
a further dilutive effect.
Our ability to obtain needed financing may be impaired by such factors as the capital markets (both
generally and in the oil and gas industry in particular), our status as a new enterprise without a
significant demonstrated operating history, the location of our oil and natural gas properties and
prices of oil and natural gas on the commodities markets (which will impact the amount of
asset-based financing available to us) and/or the loss of key management. Further, if oil and/or
natural gas prices on the commodities markets decline, our revenues will likely decrease and such
decreased revenues may increase our requirements for capital. If the amount of capital we are able
to raise from financing activities, together with our revenues from operations, is not sufficient
to satisfy our capital needs (even to the extent that we reduce our operations), we may be required
to sell some of our assets or cease our operations.
We may incur substantial costs in pursuing future capital financing, including investment banking
fees, legal fees, accounting fees, securities law compliance fees, printing and distribution
expenses and other costs. We may also be required to recognize non-cash expenses in connection with
certain securities we may issue, such as convertible notes and warrants, which may adversely impact
our financial condition.
We may not be able to effectively manage our growth, which may harm our profitability.
Our strategy envisions expanding our business. If we fail to effectively manage our growth, our
financial results could be adversely affected. Growth may place a strain on our management systems
and resources. We must continue to refine and expand our business development capabilities, our
systems and processes and our access to financing sources. As we grow, we must continue to hire,
train, supervise and manage new employees. We cannot assure you that we will be able to:
|
|
|
|
meet our capital needs; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
expand our systems effectively or efficiently or in a timely manner; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
allocate our human resources optimally; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
identify and hire qualified employees or retain valued employees; or |
|
|
|
|
|
|
incorporate effectively the components of any business that we may acquire in our
effort to achieve growth. |
|
5
If we are unable to manage our growth, our operations and our financial results could be adversely
affected by inefficiency, which could diminish our profitability.
Our business may suffer if we do not attract and retain talented personnel.
Our success will depend in large measure on the abilities, expertise, judgment, discretion,
integrity and good faith of our management and other personnel in conducting the business of the
Company. We have a small management team, and the loss of a key individual or inability to attract
suitably qualified staff could materially adversely impact our business.
Our success depends on the ability of our management and employees to interpret market and
geological data correctly and to interpret and respond to economic market and other conditions in
order to locate and adopt appropriate investment opportunities, monitor such investments, and
ultimately, if required, to successfully divest such investments. Further, no assurance can be
given that our key personnel will continue their association or employment with us or that
replacement personnel with comparable skills can be found. We have sought to and will continue to
ensure that management and any key employees are appropriately compensated; however, their services
cannot be guaranteed. If we are unable to attract and retain key personnel, our business may be
adversely affected.
Our management team does not have extensive experience in public company matters, which could
impair our ability to comply with legal and regulatory requirements.
Our management team has had limited U.S. public company management experience or responsibilities,
which could impair our ability to comply with legal and regulatory requirements such as the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and applicable federal securities laws including filing required reports
and other information required on a timely basis. There can be no assurance that our management
will be able to implement and effect programs and policies in an effective and timely manner that
adequately respond to increased legal, regulatory compliance and reporting requirements imposed by
such laws and regulations. Our failure to comply with such laws and regulations could lead to the
imposition of fines and penalties and further result in the deterioration of our business.
Risks related to our prior business may adversely affect our business.
Our business prior to the merger between our wholly-owned acquisition subsidiary and Foothills
California, Inc. (formerly Brasada California, Inc.) in April, 2006 involved mineral exploration.
In 2001, we acquired a mining lease on a total of five unpatented lode mineral claims property
located in the State of Nevada. Subsequent to our fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, we decided
to abandon the property and terminate the claims and have since been in the process of reviewing
other potential resource and non-resource assets for acquisition. We determined not to pursue the
mineral exploration line of business following the April, 2006 merger, but could still be subject
to claims arising from our former business operations. These claims may arise from our operating
activities (such as employee and labor matters), financing and credit arrangements or other
commercial transactions. While no claims are pending and we have no actual knowledge of any
threatened claims, it is possible that third parties may seek to make claims against us based on
our former business operations. Even if any such asserted claims were without merit and we were
ultimately found to have no liability for such claims, the defense costs and the distraction of
managements attention may harm the growth and profitability of our business. While the relevant
definitive agreements executed in connection with the merger provided indemnities to us for
liabilities arising from our prior business activities, these indemnities may not be sufficient to
fully protect us from all costs and expenses.
Our hedging activities could result in financial losses or could reduce our net income, which may
adversely affect your investment in our common stock.
In connection with our credit facility with J. Aron & Company, we are contractually obligated to
enter into hedging contracts with the purpose and effect of fixing oil and natural gas prices on no
less than 80% of projected oil and gas production from our proved developed producing oil and gas
reserves. To comply with the requirements of our credit facility, and in order to manage our
exposure to price risks in the marketing of our oil and natural gas production, we have entered
into oil and natural gas price hedging arrangements with respect to a portion of our expected
production. We may enter into additional hedging transactions in the future.
6
While intended to reduce the effects of volatile oil and natural gas prices, such transactions may
limit our potential
gains and increase our potential losses if oil and natural gas prices were to rise substantially
over the price established by the hedge. In addition, such transactions may expose us to the risk
of loss in certain circumstances, including instances in which:
|
|
|
|
our production is less than expected; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
there is a widening of price differentials between delivery points for our
production and the delivery point assumed in the hedge arrangement; or |
|
|
|
|
|
|
the counterparties to our hedging agreements fail to perform under the contracts. |
|
RISKS RELATED TO OUR INDUSTRY
Our exploration for oil and gas is risky and may not be commercially successful, and the 3D seismic
data and other advanced technologies we use cannot eliminate exploration risk, which could impair
our ability to generate revenues from our operations.
Our future success will depend on the success of our exploratory drilling program. Oil and gas
exploration involves a high degree of risk. These risks are more acute in the early stages of
exploration. Our expenditures on exploration may not result in new discoveries of oil or natural
gas in commercially viable quantities. It is difficult to project the costs of implementing an
exploratory drilling program due to the inherent uncertainties of drilling in unknown formations,
the costs associated with encountering various drilling conditions, such as over-pressured zones
and tools lost in the hole, and changes in drilling plans and locations as a result of prior
exploratory wells or additional seismic data and interpretations thereof.
Even when used and properly interpreted, 3D seismic data and visualization techniques only assist
geoscientists in identifying subsurface structures and hydrocarbon indicators. They do not allow
the interpreter to know conclusively if hydrocarbons are present or economically producible. In
addition, the use of 3D seismic data becomes less reliable when used at increasing depths. We could
incur losses as a result of expenditures on unsuccessful wells. If exploration costs exceed our
estimates, or if our exploration efforts do not produce results which meet our expectations, our
exploration efforts may not be commercially successful, which could adversely impact our ability to
generate revenues from our operations.
We may not be able to develop oil and gas reserves on an economically viable basis, and our
reserves and production may decline as a result.
If we succeed in discovering oil and/or natural gas reserves, we cannot assure that these reserves
will be capable of production levels we project or in sufficient quantities to be commercially
viable. On a long-term basis, our viability depends on our ability to find or acquire, develop and
commercially produce additional oil and natural gas reserves. Without the addition of reserves
through acquisition, exploration or development activities, our reserves and production will
decline over time as reserves are produced. Our future reserves will depend not only on our ability
to develop then-existing properties, but also on our ability to identify and acquire additional
suitable producing properties or prospects, to find markets for the oil and natural gas we develop
and to effectively distribute our production into our markets.
Future oil and gas exploration may involve unprofitable efforts, not only from dry wells, but from
wells that are productive but do not produce sufficient net revenues to return a profit after
drilling, operating and other costs. Completion of a well does not assure a profit on the
investment or recovery of drilling, completion and operating costs. In addition, drilling hazards
or environmental damage could greatly increase the cost of operations, and various field operating
conditions may adversely affect the production from successful wells. These conditions include
delays in obtaining governmental approvals or consents, shut-downs of connected wells resulting
from extreme weather conditions, problems in storage and distribution and adverse geological and
mechanical conditions. While we will endeavor to effectively manage these conditions, we cannot be
assured of doing so optimally, and we will not be able to eliminate them completely in any case.
Therefore, these conditions could diminish our revenue and cash flow levels and result in the
impairment of our oil and natural gas interests.
7
Estimates of oil and natural gas reserves that we make may be inaccurate and our actual revenues
may be lower than our financial projections.
We will make estimates of oil and natural gas reserves, upon which we will base our financial
projections. We will make these reserve estimates using various assumptions, including assumptions
as to oil and natural gas prices, drilling and operating expenses, capital expenditures, taxes and
availability of funds. Some of these assumptions are inherently subjective, and the accuracy of our
reserve estimates relies in part on the ability of our management team, engineers and other
advisors to make accurate assumptions. Economic factors beyond our control, such as interest rates,
will also impact the value of our reserves. The process of estimating oil and natural gas reserves
is complex, and will require us to use significant decisions and assumptions in the evaluation of
available geological, geophysical, engineering and economic data for each property. As a result,
our reserve estimates will be inherently imprecise. Actual future production, oil and natural gas
prices, revenues, taxes, development expenditures, operating expenses and quantities of recoverable
oil and natural gas reserves may vary substantially from those we estimate. If actual production
results vary substantially from our reserve estimates, this could materially reduce our revenues
and result in the impairment of our oil and natural gas interests.
Drilling new wells could result in new liabilities, which could endanger our interests in our
properties and assets.
There are risks associated with the drilling of oil and natural gas wells, including encountering
unexpected formations or pressures, premature declines of reservoirs, blow-outs, craterings, sour
gas releases, fires and spills, among others. The occurrence of any of these events could
significantly reduce our revenues or cause substantial losses, impairing our future operating
results. We may become subject to liability for pollution, blow-outs or other hazards. We intend to
obtain insurance with respect to these hazards; however, such insurance has limitations on
liability that may not be sufficient to cover the full extent of such liabilities. The payment of
such liabilities could reduce the funds available to us or could, in an extreme case, result in a
total loss of our properties and assets. Moreover, we may not be able to maintain adequate
insurance in the future at rates that are considered reasonable. Oil and natural gas production
operations are also subject to all the risks typically associated with such operations, including
premature decline of reservoirs and the invasion of water into producing formations.
Decommissioning costs are unknown and may be substantial. Unplanned costs could divert resources
from other projects.
We may become responsible for costs associated with abandoning and reclaiming wells, facilities and
pipelines which we use for production of oil and natural gas reserves. Abandonment and reclamation
of these facilities and the costs associated therewith is often referred to as decommissioning.
We have not yet determined whether we will establish a cash reserve account for these potential
costs in respect of any of our properties or facilities, or if we will satisfy such costs of
decommissioning from the proceeds of production in accordance with the practice generally employed
in onshore and offshore oilfield operations. If decommissioning is required before economic
depletion of our properties or if our estimates of the costs of decommissioning exceed the value of
the reserves remaining at any particular time to cover such decommissioning costs, we may have to
draw on funds from other sources to satisfy such costs. The use of other funds to satisfy such
decommissioning costs could impair our ability to focus capital investment in other areas of our
business.
Our inability to obtain necessary facilities could hamper our operations.
Oil and gas exploration and development activities are dependent on the availability of drilling
and related equipment, transportation, power and technical support in the particular areas where
these activities will be conducted, and our access to these facilities may be limited. To the
extent that we conduct our activities in remote areas, needed facilities may not be proximate to
our operations, which will increase our expenses. Demand for such limited equipment and other
facilities or access restrictions may affect the availability of such equipment to us and may delay
exploration and development activities. The quality and reliability of necessary facilities may
also be unpredictable and we may be required to make efforts to standardize our facilities, which
may entail unanticipated costs and delays. Shortages and/or the unavailability of necessary
equipment or other facilities will impair our activities, either by delaying our activities,
increasing our costs or otherwise.
8
We may have difficulty distributing our production, which could harm our financial condition.
In order to sell the oil and natural gas that we are able to produce, we will have to make
arrangements for storage and distribution to the market. We will rely on local infrastructure and
the availability of transportation for storage and shipment of our products, but infrastructure
development and storage and transportation facilities may be insufficient for our needs at
commercially acceptable terms in the localities in which we operate. This could be particularly
problematic to the extent that our operations are conducted in remote areas that are difficult to
access, such as areas that are distant from shipping and/or pipeline facilities. These factors may
affect our ability to explore and develop properties and to store and transport our oil and natural
gas production and may increase our expenses. In the Eel River Basin in California, we have
contractual rights to access existing natural gas transportation facilities. Depending on the
success of our planned drilling, it is possible that we will be required to construct additional
pipeline facilities in the future in order to have sufficient capacity to transport all of our
natural gas production.
Furthermore, weather conditions or natural disasters, actions by companies doing business in one or
more of the areas in which we will operate, or labor disputes may impair the distribution of oil
and/or natural gas and in turn diminish our financial condition or ability to maintain our
operations.
Prices and markets for oil and natural gas are unpredictable and tend to fluctuate significantly,
which could reduce profitability, growth and the value of our business.
Oil and natural gas are commodities whose prices are determined based on world demand, supply and
other factors, all of which are beyond our control. World prices for oil and natural gas have
fluctuated widely in recent years, and rose to record levels on a nominal basis in 2006. The
average price for West Texas Intermediate oil in 1999 was $22 per barrel. In 2002 it was $27 per
barrel. In 2005, it was $57 per barrel. During 2006, the daily spot price of West Texas
Intermediate oil, as reported by the Wall Street Journal,
peaked at $77.03, and as of July 27, 2007
was reported as $77.03. We expect that prices will fluctuate in the future. Price fluctuations will
have a significant impact upon our revenue, the return from our reserves and on our financial
condition generally. Price fluctuations for oil and natural gas commodities may also impact the
investment market for companies engaged in the oil and gas industry. Prices may not remain at
current levels. Future decreases in the prices of oil and natural gas may have a material adverse
effect on our financial condition, the future results of our operations and quantities of reserves
recoverable on an economic basis.
Increases in our operating expenses will impact our operating results and financial condition.
Exploration, development, production, marketing (including distribution costs) and regulatory
compliance costs (including taxes) will substantially impact the net revenues we derive from the
oil and natural gas that we produce. These costs are subject to fluctuations and variation in
different locales in which we will operate, and we may not be able to predict or control these
costs. If these costs exceed our expectations, this may adversely affect our results of operations.
In addition, we may not be able to earn net revenue at our predicted levels, which may impact our
ability to satisfy our obligations.
Penalties we may incur could impair our business.
Failure to comply with government regulations could subject us to civil and criminal penalties,
could require us to forfeit property rights, and may affect the value of our assets. We may also be
required to take corrective actions, such as installing additional equipment or taking other
actions, each of which could require us to make substantial capital expenditures. We could also be
required to indemnify our employees in connection with any expenses or liabilities that they may
incur individually in connection with regulatory action against them. As a result, our future
business prospects could deteriorate due to regulatory constraints, and our profitability could be
impaired by our obligation to provide such indemnification to our employees.
Environmental risks may adversely affect our business.
All phases of the oil and gas business present environmental risks and hazards and are subject to
environmental regulation pursuant to a variety of federal, state and municipal laws and
regulations. Environmental legislation provides for, among other things, restrictions and
prohibitions on spills, releases or emissions of various substances produced in association with
oil and gas operations. The legislation also requires that wells and facility sites be
9
operated, maintained, abandoned and reclaimed to the satisfaction of applicable regulatory
authorities. Compliance with such legislation can require significant expenditures and a breach may
result in the imposition of fines and penalties, some of which may be material. Environmental
legislation is evolving in a manner we expect may result in stricter standards and enforcement,
larger fines and liability and potentially increased capital expenditures and operating costs. The
discharge of oil, natural gas or other pollutants into the air, soil or water may give rise to
liabilities to governments and third parties and may require us to incur costs to remedy such
discharge. The application of environmental laws to our business may cause us to curtail our
production or increase the costs of our production, development or exploration activities.
Our insurance may be inadequate to cover liabilities we may incur.
Our involvement in the exploration for and development of oil and gas properties may result in our
becoming subject to liability for pollution, blow-outs, property damage, personal injury or other
hazards. Although we expect to obtain insurance in accordance with industry standards to address
such risks, such insurance has limitations on liability that may not be sufficient to cover the
full extent of such liabilities. In addition, such risks may not, in all circumstances, be
insurable or, in certain circumstances, we may choose not to obtain insurance to protect against
specific risks due to the high premiums associated with such insurance or for other reasons. The
payment of such uninsured liabilities would reduce the funds available to us. If we suffer a
significant event or occurrence that is not fully insured, or if the insurer of such event is not
solvent, we could be required to divert funds from capital investment or other uses towards
covering our liability for such events.
Our business will suffer if we cannot obtain or maintain necessary licenses.
Our operations will require licenses, permits and in some cases renewals of licenses and permits
from various governmental authorities. Our ability to obtain, sustain or renew such licenses and
permits on acceptable terms is subject to change in regulations and policies and to the discretion
of the applicable governments, among other factors. Our inability to obtain, or our loss of or
denial of extension, to any of these licenses or permits could hamper our ability to produce
revenues from our operations.
Challenges to our properties may impact our financial condition.
Title to oil and gas interests is often not capable of conclusive determination without incurring
substantial expense. While we intend to make appropriate inquiries into the title of properties and
other development rights we acquire, title defects may exist. In addition, we may be unable to
obtain adequate insurance for title defects, on a commercially reasonable basis or at all. If title
defects do exist, it is possible that we may lose all or a portion of our right, title and
interests in and to the properties to which the title defects relate.
If our property rights are reduced, our ability to conduct our exploration, development and
production activities may be impaired.
We will rely on technology to conduct our business and our technology could become ineffective or
obsolete.
We rely on technology, including geographic and seismic analysis techniques and economic models, to
develop our reserve estimates and to guide our exploration, development and production activities.
We will be required to continually enhance and update our technology to maintain its efficacy and
to avoid obsolescence. The costs of doing so may be substantial, and may be higher than the costs
that we anticipate for technology maintenance and development. If we are unable to maintain the
efficacy of our technology, our ability to manage our business and to compete may be impaired.
Further, even if we are able to maintain technical effectiveness, our technology may not be the
most efficient means of reaching our objectives, in which case we may incur higher operating costs
than we would were our technology more efficient.
RISKS RELATED TO OUR COMMON STOCK
There has been a limited trading market for our common stock and no market for our warrants.
There has been a limited trading market for our common stock on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board
and no established market for the warrants. The lack of an active market may impair the ability of
our investors to sell their
10
shares of common stock or their warrants at the time they wish to sell them or at a price that they
consider reasonable. The lack of an active market may also reduce the fair market value of the
shares of common stock and warrants to be sold under this prospectus. An inactive market may also
impair our ability to raise capital by selling shares of capital stock and may impair our ability
to acquire other companies or technologies by using our common stock as consideration.
Investors may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our common stock or warrants.
Our common stock is currently quoted on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board under the symbol
FTRS.OB. Our warrants do not currently trade on any exchange or market. Our common stock has been
actively traded for only a limited time, and the bid and ask prices for our common stock have
fluctuated widely. As a result, investors may find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain
accurate quotations of the price of, our common stock and our warrants. This severely limits the
liquidity of our common stock and our warrants, and would likely reduce the market price of our
common stock and warrants, and hamper our ability to raise additional capital.
The market price of our common stock is, and is likely to continue to be, highly volatile and
subject to wide fluctuations.
The market price of our common stock is likely to continue to be highly volatile and could be
subject to wide fluctuations in response to a number of factors, some of which are beyond our
control, including:
|
|
|
|
dilution caused by our issuance of additional shares of common stock and other forms
of equity securities, which we expect to make in connection with future capital
financings to fund our operations and growth, to attract and retain valuable personnel
and in connection with future strategic partnerships with other companies; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
announcements of new acquisitions, reserve discoveries or other business initiatives
by our competitors; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
our ability to take advantage of new acquisitions (such as our acquisition of
certain properties of TARH E&P Holdings, L.P.), reserve discoveries or other business
initiatives; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
fluctuations in revenue from our oil and gas business as new reserves come to
market; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
changes in the market for oil and natural gas commodities and/or in the capital
markets generally; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
changes in the demand for oil and natural gas, including changes resulting from the
introduction or expansion of alternative fuels; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
quarterly variations in our revenues and operating expenses; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
changes in the valuation of similarly situated companies, both in our industry and
in other industries; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
changes in analysts estimates affecting our company, our competitors and/or our industry; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
changes in the accounting methods used in or otherwise affecting our industry; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
additions and departures of key personnel; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
announcements of technological innovations or new products available to the oil and
gas industry; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
announcements by relevant governments pertaining to incentives for alternative
energy development programs; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
fluctuations in interest rates and the availability of capital in the capital markets; and |
|
|
|
|
|
|
significant sales of our common stock or warrants. |
|
These and other factors are largely beyond our control, and the impact of these risks, singly or in
the aggregate, may result in material adverse changes to the market price of our common stock and
our warrants, and/or our results of operations and financial condition.
Our operating results may fluctuate significantly, and these fluctuations may cause the price of
our common stock and our warrants to decline.
Our operating results will likely vary in the future primarily as the result of fluctuations in our
revenues and operating expenses, including the coming to market of oil and natural gas reserves
that we are able to develop, expenses that we incur, the prices of oil and natural gas in the
commodities markets and other factors. If our results of operations do not meet the expectations of
current or potential investors, the price of our common stock and our warrants may decline.
11
We do not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.
We do not intend to declare dividends for the foreseeable future, as we anticipate that we will
reinvest any future earnings in the development and growth of our business. Therefore, investors
will not receive any funds unless they sell their common stock or warrants, and stockholders may be
unable to sell their shares and warrants on favorable terms or at all. Investors cannot be assured
of a positive return on investment or that they will not lose the entire amount of their investment
in our common stock and warrants.
Stockholders will experience dilution upon the exercise of warrants and options.
As of July 15, 2007, there were 20,597,532 shares of common stock underlying warrants issued and
outstanding, which if exercised or converted, could decrease the net tangible book value of our
common stock. In addition, there were 7,000,000 shares of common stock underlying options that may
be granted, of which options for 1,875,000 shares of common stock have already been granted,
pursuant to the Companys 2006 and 2007 Equity Incentive Plans. If the holders of those options exercise
those options, stockholders may experience dilution in the net tangible book value of our common
stock. Further, the sale or availability for sale of the underlying shares in the marketplace could
depress our stock price. We have registered or agreed to register for resale the above-described
warrants all of the shares of common stock underlying such warrants. Holders of registered
underlying shares could resell the shares immediately upon registration, resulting in significant
downward pressure on our stock price.
Directors and officers of the Company have a high concentration of common stock ownership.
Based on the 60,462,670 shares of common stock that were issued and outstanding as of June 30, 2007,
our officers and directors beneficially owned approximately 25.0% of our outstanding common stock.
Such a high level of ownership by such persons may have a significant effect in delaying, deferring
or preventing any potential change in control of Foothills. Additionally, as a result of their high
level of ownership, our officers and directors might be able to strongly influence the actions of
the Companys board of directors and the outcome of actions brought to our stockholders for
approval. Such a high level of ownership may adversely affect the voting and other rights of our
stockholders.
Applicable SEC rules governing the trading of penny stocks limit the trading and liquidity of our
common stock, which may affect the trading price of our common stock.
Shares of our common stock may be considered a penny stock and be subject to SEC rules and
regulations which impose limitations upon the manner in which such shares may be publicly traded
and regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny
stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities
registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that
current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by
the exchange or system). The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a
penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document
that provides information about penny stocks and the risks in the penny stock market. The
broker-dealer must also provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny
stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly
account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customers account. In
addition, the penny stock rules generally require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock, the
broker-dealer make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment
for the purchaser and receive the purchasers written agreement to the transaction. These
disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the
secondary market for a stock that becomes subject to the penny stock rules which may increase the
difficulty investors may experience in attempting to liquidate an investment in our common stock or
warrants.
SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). This prospectus includes statements
regarding our plans, goals, strategies, intent, beliefs or current expectations. These statements
are expressed in good faith and based upon a reasonable basis when made, but there can be no
assurance that these expectations will be achieved or accomplished. These forward looking
statements can
12
be identified by the use of terms and phrases such as believe, plan, intend, anticipate,
target, estimate, expect, and the like, and/or future-tense or conditional constructions
may, could, should, etc. Items contemplating or making assumptions about, actual or potential
future sales, market size, collaborations, and trends or operating results also constitute such
forward-looking statements.
Although forward-looking statements in this prospectus reflect the good faith judgment of our
management, forward-looking statements are inherently subject to known and unknown risks, business,
economic and other risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to be materially different
from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. Readers are urged not to place undue
reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this prospectus.
We assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statements in order to reflect any event or
circumstance that may arise after the date of this prospectus, other than as may be required by
applicable law or regulation. Readers are urged to carefully review and consider the various
disclosures made by us in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission which
attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect our business,
financial condition, results of operation and cash flows. If one or more of these risks or
uncertainties materialize, or if the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results may
vary materially from those expected or projected.
SELLING STOCKHOLDERS
This prospectus covers warrants and shares of our common stock, including shares underlying
warrants, sold in our recent private equity offerings, in April, 2006 and September, 2006, to
accredited investors as defined by Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act pursuant to an exemption
from registration provided in Regulation D, Rule 506 under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. The
selling stockholders may from time to time offer and sell under this prospectus any or all of the
warrants or shares of common stock listed opposite each of their names below. We are required,
under registration rights agreements, to register for resale the warrants and the shares of our
common stock described in the tables below.
Common Stock
The following table sets forth information about the number of shares of our common stock
beneficially owned by each selling stockholder that may be offered from time to time under this
prospectus. Certain selling stockholders may be deemed to be underwriters as defined in the
Securities Act. Any profits realized by such selling stockholders may be deemed to be underwriting
commissions.
The table below has been prepared based upon the information furnished to us by the selling
stockholders as of June 30, 2007. The selling stockholders identified below may have sold,
transferred or otherwise disposed of some or all of their shares since the date on which the
information in the following table is presented in transactions exempt from or not subject to the
registration requirements of the Securities Act. Information concerning the selling stockholders
may change from time to time and, if necessary, we will amend or supplement this prospectus
accordingly. We cannot provide an exact amount, but have provided an estimate, of the number of
shares of common stock that will be held by the selling stockholders upon termination of this
offering because the selling stockholders may offer some or all of their common stock under the
offering contemplated by this prospectus. The total number of shares that may be sold hereunder
will not exceed the number of shares offered hereby. Please read the section entitled Plan of
Distribution in this prospectus.
We have been advised, as noted below in the footnotes to the table, 18 of the selling stockholders
are broker-dealers and 8 of the selling stockholders are affiliates of broker-dealers. We have been
advised that each of such selling stockholders purchased our common stock and warrants in the
ordinary course of business, not for resale, and that none of such selling stockholders had, at the
time of purchase, any agreements or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any person to
distribute the related common stock.
The following table sets forth the name of each selling stockholder, the nature of any position,
office, or other material relationship, if any, which the selling stockholder has had, within the
past three years, with us or with any of our predecessors or affiliates, and the number of shares
of our common stock beneficially owned by such stockholder before this offering. The number of
shares owned are those beneficially owned, as determined under the rules of the SEC, and such
information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Under such
13
rules, beneficial ownership includes any shares of common stock as to which a person has sole or
shared voting power or investment power and any shares of common stock which the person has the
right to acquire within 60 days through the exercise of any option, warrant or right, through
conversion of any security or pursuant to the automatic termination of a power of attorney or
revocation of a trust, discretionary account or similar arrangement.
Unless otherwise indicated, the stockholders listed in the table below acquired their shares in our
private offerings in April, 2006 and September, 2006. Beneficial ownership is calculated based on
60,462,670 shares of our common stock outstanding as of June 30, 2007. Beneficial ownership is
determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Shares
underlying warrants or options exercisable within 60 days of
June 30, 2007 are considered for the
purpose of determining the percent of the class held by the holder of such warrants or options, but
not for the purpose of computing the percentages held by others. The persons and entities named in
the table have sole voting and sole investment power with respect to the shares set forth opposite
the stockholders name, subject to community property laws, where applicable, unless otherwise
noted in the footnotes to the table. We have assumed all shares reflected on the table that were
acquired in our private offerings will be sold from time to time. Because the selling stockholders
may offer all or any portion of the common stock listed in the table below, no estimate can be
given as to the amount of those shares of common stock acquired in our private offerings that will
be held by the selling stockholders upon the termination of any sales of common stock.

Warrants
The following table sets forth information about the number of shares of common stock underlying
the warrants which are beneficially owned by each selling stockholder and which may be offered from
time to time under this prospectus. Certain selling stockholders may be deemed to be underwriters
as defined in the Securities Act. Any profits realized by the selling stockholder may be deemed to
be underwriting commissions.
The table below has been prepared based upon information provided to us by the selling
stockholders, as well as our books and records, including our warrant
ledger, as of June 30, 2007.
The selling stockholders identified below may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of some
or all of their warrants since the date on which the information in the following table is
presented, in transactions exempt from or not subject to the registration requirements of the
Securities Act. Information concerning the selling stockholders may change from time to time and,
if necessary, we will amend or supplement this prospectus accordingly. We cannot give an estimate
as to whether the selling stockholders will exercise or sell the warrants that will be held by the
selling stockholders upon termination of this offering because the selling stockholders may sell or
exercise their warrants, in whole or in part, under the offering contemplated by this prospectus.
The total number of shares underlying warrants that may be sold hereunder will not exceed the
shares of common stock underlying warrants listed in the table below. Please read the section
entitled Plan of Distribution in this prospectus.
35
We have been advised, as noted below in the footnotes to the table, 18 of the selling stockholders
are broker-dealers and 8 of the selling stockholders are affiliates of broker-dealers. We have been
advised that each of such selling stockholders purchased our warrants in the ordinary course of
business, not for resale, and that none of such selling stockholders had, at the time of purchase,
any agreements or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the related
warrants.
The following table sets forth the name of each selling stockholder, the nature of any position,
office, or other material relationship, if any, which the selling stockholder has had, within the
past three years, with us or with any of our predecessors or affiliates, and the number of shares
of our common stock underlying the warrants beneficially owned by such stockholder before this
offering. The warrants owned for the purposes of this table are those that are beneficially owned,
as determined under the rules of the SEC, and such information is not necessarily indicative of
beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Under such rules, beneficial ownership includes any
warrants as to which a person has sole or shared voting power or investment power and any warrants
which the person has the right to acquire within 60 days through the conversion of any security or
pursuant to the automatic termination of a power of attorney or revocation of a trust,
discretionary account or similar arrangement.
Unless otherwise indicated, the stockholders listed in the table below acquired their warrants in
the private offerings of our securities in April, 2006 and September, 2006. The percentage of
common stock underlying outstanding warrants is based upon a total of 20,597,532 shares of common
stock underlying outstanding warrants. We have assumed all warrants reflected in the following
table will be exercised or sold from time to time by the selling stockholders. Because the selling
stockholders may offer all of their warrants, in whole or in part, listed in the table below, no
estimate can be given as to the number of shares of common stock underlying warrants that will be
held by the selling stockholders upon the termination of any sales of their warrants.

USE OF PROCEEDS
We will not receive proceeds from the sale of common stock or warrants under this prospectus. We
will receive approximately $35,271,182 from the selling stockholders if they exercise their
warrants in full. The selling stockholders who hold warrants may exercise their warrants at any
time until their expiration, as further described in the Description of Securities. Because the
warrant holders may sell the warrants or exercise the warrants in their own discretion, we cannot
plan on specific uses of proceeds beyond application of proceeds to general corporate purposes. We
have agreed to bear the expenses in connection with the registration of the common stock and
warrants being offered hereby by the selling stockholders.
DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE
The selling stockholders will determine at what price they may sell the offered shares and
warrants, and such sales may be made at prevailing market prices, or at privately negotiated
prices.
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The selling stockholders and any of their pledgees, donees, transferees, assignees and
successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of common stock on
any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private
transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The selling stockholders may use
any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:
|
|
|
|
on any national securities exchange or quotation service on which the securities may
be listed or quoted at the time of sale; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
in the over-the-counter market; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
in transactions otherwise than on these exchanges or systems or in the over-the-counter market; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
through the writing of options, whether such options are listed on an options
exchange or otherwise; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits
purchasers; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but
may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the
transaction; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
privately negotiated transactions; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
to cover short sales made after the date this Registration Statement is declared
effective by the SEC; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
sales pursuant to Rule 144; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
broker-dealers may agree with the selling securityholders to sell a specified number
of such shares at a stipulated price per share; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
a combination of any such methods of sale; and |
|
|
|
|
|
|
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law. |
|
The selling stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if
available, rather than under this prospectus.
Broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to
participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling
stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the
purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. The selling stockholders do not expect these commissions
and discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved.
The selling stockholders may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all
of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their
secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell shares of common stock from
time to time under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3)
or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of selling stockholders to
include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this
prospectus.
57
Upon a selling stockholders notification of the Company that any material arrangement has been
entered into with a
broker-dealer for the sale of such stockholders common stock through a block trade, special
offering, exchange distribution or secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, a
supplement to this prospectus will be filed, if required, pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the
Securities Act disclosing (i) the name of each such selling stockholder and of the participating
broker-dealer(s), (ii) the number of shares involved, (iii) the price at which such shares of
common stock were sold, (iv) the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to such
broker-dealer(s), where applicable, (v) that such broker-dealer(s) did not conduct any
investigation to verify the information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus,
and (vi) other facts material to the transaction. In addition, upon the Company being notified in
writing by a Selling Stockholder that a donee or pledgee intends to sell more than 500 shares of
common stock, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed if then required in accordance with
applicable securities law.
The selling stockholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in
which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial
owners for purposes of this prospectus.
The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares
may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act, in connection with
such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit
on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or
discounts under the Securities Act. Discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling
expenses, if any, that can be attributed to the sale of Securities will be paid by the selling
stockholder and/or the purchasers. Each selling stockholder has represented and warranted to the
Company that it acquired the securities subject to this registration statement in the ordinary
course of such selling stockholders business and, at the time of its purchase of such securities
such selling stockholder had no agreements or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any
person to distribute any such securities.
The Company has advised each selling stockholder that it may not use shares registered on this
registration statement to cover short sales of common stock made prior to the date on which this
registration statement shall have been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange
Commission. If a selling stockholder uses this prospectus for any sale of the common stock, it will
be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling stockholders
will be responsible to comply with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and the
Securities Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder promulgated, including, without
limitation, Regulation M, as applicable to such selling stockholders in connection with resales of
their respective shares under this registration statement.
The Company is required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares,
but the Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the common stock. The Company has
agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and
liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
The Company has agreed with the selling stockholders to keep the registration statement of which
this prospectus constitutes a part effective until the earlier of two years from the effective date
of the registration statement, the date on which the shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144, and
the date on which the shares have been sold or otherwise disposed.

future earnings, if any, to support the development of our business and therefore do not anticipate
paying cash dividends for the foreseeable future. Payment of future dividends, if any, will be at
the discretion of our board of directors after taking into account various factors, including
current financial condition, operating results and current and anticipated cash needs.

Overview
Foothills Resources, Inc. (Foothills), a Nevada corporation, and its subsidiaries are
collectively referred to herein as the Company. The Company is a growth-oriented independent
energy company engaged in the acquisition, exploration, exploitation and development of oil and
natural gas properties. The Company currently holds interests in properties in the Texas Gulf
Coast area, in the Eel River Basin in northern California, and in the Anadarko Basin in southwest
Oklahoma.
The Company took its current form on April 6, 2006, when Brasada California, Inc. (Brasada)
merged with and into an acquisition subsidiary of Foothills. Brasada was formed on December 29,
2005 as Brasada Resources LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and converted to a Delaware
corporation on February 28, 2006. Following the merger, Brasada changed its name to Foothills
California, Inc. (Foothills California) and is now a wholly owned operating subsidiary of
Foothills.
In April, 2006, we closed a private offering of an aggregate of 17,142,857 units consisting of
one share of our common stock and warrants to acquire three-quarters of a share of common stock for
five years, at an exercise price of $1.00 per whole share. In this offering, we received aggregate
consideration of $12,000,000. Some of the consideration for the units sold in this offering was in
the form of debentures that we sold prior to the closing date of the offering to accredited
investors. These debentures converted into units in the offering on a dollar-for-dollar basis upon
the closing date of the offering.
In September, 2006, we closed a private offering of units consisting of shares of our common
stock and warrants to acquire our common stock. Each unit we sold in the offering consisted of one
share of common stock and a warrant to acquire one-half share of common stock for five years at an
exercise price of $2.75 per share. On September 8, 2006, we received $22,500,000 in proceeds from
the offering, through the sale of 10,000,000 units, issuing to investors in the offering 10,000,000
shares of common stock and warrants to acquire 5,000,017 shares of common stock. On September 27,
2006, we received proceeds of an additional $211,059 through the sale of an additional 93,804 units
to additional investors in the offering.
To finance a portion of the acquisition of properties in Texas in September, 2006, the Company
executed a credit agreement with a financial institution, whereby the Company may borrow funds
under a credit facility in an amount not to exceed $42,500,000 (the Facility). As of June 30,
2007, $42,500,000 was outstanding under the Facility.
The Facility will terminate and all amounts borrowed under the Facility will be due and
payable on September 7, 2010. The interest rate on the Facility was initially LIBOR plus 700 basis
points, and was increased by 100 basis points on each of September 22, 2006, October 23, 2006 and
November 22, 2006 when the Company did not satisfy a requirement of the credit agreement to raise
an additional $5,000,000 in equity capital on or before those dates. The Company is required to
make quarterly interest and principal payments on the Facility equal to the adjusted net cash flow
attributable to the properties acquired in the acquisition. The Facility is secured by liens and
security interests on substantially all of the assets of the Company, including 100% of the
Companys oil and gas reserves, and prohibits any dividends on or redemptions of Foothills capital
stock.
On January 3, 2006, Foothills California entered into a Farmout and Participation Agreement
with INNEX California, Inc., a subsidiary of INNEX Energy, L.L.C. (INNEX), to acquire, explore
and develop oil and natural gas properties located in the Eel River Basin, the material terms of
which are as follows:
|
|
|
|
Foothills California serves as operator of a joint venture with INNEX, and has the
right to earn an interest in approximately 4,000 existing leasehold acres held by INNEX
in the basin, and to participate as operator with INNEX in oil and gas acquisition,
exploration and development activities within an area of mutual interest consisting of
the entire Eel River Basin. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
The agreement provides for drill-to-earn terms, and consists of three phases. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
In Phase I, Foothills California was obligated to pay 100% of the costs of drilling
two shallow wells, acquiring 1,000 acres of new leases, and certain other activities.
The Company has fulfilled its |
|
60
|
|
|
|
obligations under Phase I, and will receive an assignment from INNEX of a 75%
working interest (representing an approximate 56.3% net revenue interest) in the
leases held by INNEX in the two drilling units to the deepest depth drilled in the
two Phase I obligation wells. |
|
|
|
|
|
Foothills California then had the option, but not the obligation, to proceed into
Phase II. It elected to proceed into Phase II, and has paid the costs of conducting a
3D seismic survey covering approximately 12.7 square miles and will be obligated to pay
100% of the costs of drilling one additional shallow well. Upon completion of Phase II,
the Company will receive an assignment from INNEX of a 75% working interest
(representing an approximate 56.3% net revenue interest) in the leases held by INNEX in
the drilling unit for the well drilled in Phase II and a 75% working interest
(representing an approximate 59.3% net revenue interest) in all remaining leases held
by INNEX to the deepest depth drilled in the three Phase I and II obligation wells. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Foothills California will then have the option, but not the obligation, to proceed
into Phase III. In Phase III, it will be obligated to pay 100% of the costs of drilling
one deep well. Upon completion of Phase III, the Company will receive an assignment
from INNEX of a 75% working interest (representing an approximate 56.3% net revenue
interest) in the leases held by INNEX in the drilling unit and a 75% working interest
(representing an approximate 59.3% net revenue interest) in all remaining leases held
by INNEX with no depth limitation. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
After completion of Phase III, the two parties will each be responsible for funding
their working interest share of the joint ventures costs and expenses. Foothills
California will generally have a 75% working interest in activities conducted on
specified prospects existing at the time of execution of the agreement, and a 70%
working interest in other activities. Each party will be able to elect not to
participate in exploratory wells on a prospect-by-prospect basis, and a
non-participating party will lose the opportunity to participate in development
activities and all rights to production relating to that prospect. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Foothills California is also entitled to a proportionate assignment from INNEX of
its rights to existing permits, drill pads, roads, rights-of-way, and other
infrastructure, as well as its pipeline access and marketing arrangements. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
INNEX has an option to participate for a 25% working interest in certain producing
property acquisitions by the Company in the area of mutual interest. |

Results of Operations
The merger of Brasada into our acquisition subsidiary on April 6, 2006 was accounted for as a
reverse takeover of the Company by Foothills California. The Company adopted the assets,
management, business operations and business plan of Foothills California, which was formed on
December 29, 2005. The financial statements of the Company prior to the merger were eliminated at
consolidation. Consequently, direct comparisons of current results of operations with those of the
comparable periods of the preceding year are not meaningful.
Three Months Ended March 31, 2007 compared with the Three Months Ended March 31, 2006
As previously described, Foothills California was formed on December 29, 2005, and had no
revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2006. The Company reported a net loss of $144,000 for
the quarter, which was principally comprised of $137,000 of general and administrative expenses.
For the three months ended March 31, 2007, the Company reported a net loss of $1,599,000, or
$0.03 per basic and diluted share. Oil and gas revenues were $3,841,000, including $423,000 of
realized gains from the
61
Companys oil and gas cash flow hedges. The average sales price received by the Company during this
period for its oil and gas production was $54.01 per barrel of oil equivalent (BOE), excluding
the effects of gains from cash flow hedges. Production costs, including lease operating and
workover expenses, marketing and transportation expenses, and production and ad valorem taxes, were
$996,000, or $16.03 per BOE. Depreciation, depletion and amortization totaled $675,000, including
$10.32 per BOE for the capitalized costs of oil and gas properties. General and administrative
expenses during the period amounted to $757,000. The Company incurred interest expense of
$2,656,000, including $1,022,000 of non-cash charges for the amortization of debt discount and debt
issue costs. Liquidated damages of $440,000 relate to amounts payable to our stockholders as a
result of the registration statements for our securities issued in 2006 not becoming effective
within the periods specified in the share registration rights agreements for those securities.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Hedging Transactions
In connection with our credit facility with J. Aron & Company, we are contractually obligated to
enter into hedging contracts with the purpose and effect of fixing oil and natural gas prices on no
less than 80% of projected oil and gas production from our proved developed producing oil and gas
reserves. To fulfill our hedging obligation, we have entered into swap agreements with J. Aron &
Company. We have entered into the swaps with J. Aron & Company to hedge the price risks associated
with a portion of our anticipated future oil and gas production through September 30, 2010,
mitigating a portion of our exposure to adverse market changes and allowing us to predict with
greater certainty the effective oil and natural gas prices to be received for our hedged
production. Our swap agreements have not been entered into for trading purposes and we have the
ability and intent to hold these instruments to maturity. J. Aron & Company, the counterparty to
the swap agreements, is also our lender under a credit facility. We believe that the terms of the
swap agreements are at least as favorable as we could have achieved in swap agreements with third
parties who are not our lenders.
By removing a significant portion of the price volatility from our future oil and gas revenues
through the swap agreements, we have mitigated, but not eliminated, the potential effects of
changing oil and gas prices on our cash flows from operations through September 30, 2010. While
these and other hedging transactions we may enter into in the future will mitigate our risk of
declining prices for oil and gas, they will also limit the potential gains that we would experience
if prices in the market were to rise. We have not obtained collateral to support the agreements but
monitor the financial viability of our counterparty and believe our credit risk is minimal on these
transactions. Under these arrangements, payments are received or made based on the differential
between fixed product prices in the swap agreements and a variable product price representing the
average of the closing settlement price(s) on the New York Mercantile Exchange for futures
contracts for the applicable trading months. These agreements are settled in cash at monthly
expiration dates. In the event of nonperformance, we would be exposed again to price risk. We have
some risk of financial loss because the price received for the oil or gas production at the actual
physical delivery point may differ from the prevailing price at the delivery point required for
settlement of the hedging transaction. We could also suffer financial losses if our actual oil and
gas production is less than the hedged production volumes during periods when the variable product
price exceeds the fixed product price. Moreover, our hedge arrangements generally do not apply to
all of our production and thus provide only partial price protection against declines in commodity
prices. Hedge effectiveness is measured at least quarterly based on the relative changes in fair
value between the derivative contract and the hedged item over time, and any ineffectiveness is
immediately reported in the consolidated statement of operations.
Our current hedging transactions are designated as cash flow hedges, and we record the costs and
any benefits derived from these transactions as a reduction or increase, as applicable, in natural
gas and oil sales revenue. We may enter into additional hedging transactions in the future.

BUSINESS
Company Overview
Foothills is an oil and gas exploration company engaged in the acquisition, exploration and
development of oil and
natural gas properties. The Companys operations are primarily those of Foothills California, Inc.,
Foothills Texas, Inc. and Foothills Oklahoma, Inc., our wholly-owned subsidiaries. Foothills
California, Inc., a Delaware corporation, was formed on December 29, 2005 as Brasada Resources LLC,
a Delaware limited liability company, and converted to Brasada California, Inc., a Delaware
corporation, on February 28, 2006. On April 6, 2006, Brasada California, Inc. merged with our
wholly-owned acquisition subsidiary, leaving Brasada California, Inc. the surviving corporation and
our wholly-owned subsidiary. Brasada California, Inc. later changed its name to Foothills
California, Inc. following the merger. Foothills Oklahoma, Inc. was formed on May 10, 2006 to
conduct our operations in Oklahoma. Foothills Texas, Inc. was formed in August, 2006 for the
purpose of acquiring certain assets from TARH E&P Holdings, L.P. and operating those properties
following the September 8, 2006 consummation of this acquisition. We currently conduct our
operations primarily through these subsidiaries.
Prior to our identification of the acquisition of the properties of TARH E&P Holdings, L.P. in
Texas, our primary focus was on oil and natural gas properties located in the Eel River Basin,
California, and the Anadarko Basin, Oklahoma. On June 22, 2006, we announced that Foothills Texas,
Inc. had entered into definitive agreements with TARH E&P Holdings, L.P., an affiliate of Texas
American Resources Company, for the acquisition of certain properties in Texas. This acquisition
expanded our operations into Texas, though we will continue to operate and expand our operations in
California and Oklahoma.
Our business strategy is to identify and exploit low-to-moderate risk resources in and adjacent to
existing or indicated producing areas that can be quickly developed and put on production at low
cost, including the acquisition of producing properties with exploitation and exploration potential
in these areas. We will also take advantage of our expertise to develop exploratory projects in
focus areas and to participate with other companies in those areas to explore for oil and natural
gas using state-of-the-art 3D seismic technology.
We have entered into an agreement with Moyes & Co., Inc. to identify potential acquisition,
development, exploitation and exploration opportunities that fit with our strategy. Moyes & Co.,
Inc. is expected to screen opportunities and perform detailed evaluation of those opportunities
that we decide to pursue, as well as assist with due diligence and negotiations with respect to
such opportunities. Christopher P. Moyes is the beneficial owner of 2.6% of our common stock as of
May 15, 2007, and is a member of our board of directors. Mr. Moyes is a major shareholder and the
President of Moyes & Co., Inc. However, Moyes & Co., Inc. is being compensated for identifying
opportunities and assisting us in pursuing those opportunities; therefore the interests of Moyes &
Co., Inc. are not the same as our interests. We are responsible for evaluating any opportunities
presented to us by Moyes & Co., Inc. to determine if those opportunities are consistent with our
business strategy.
California
We believe that the oil and gas industry has in effect overlooked California in recent years
because of the perceived difficulties of conducting operations in the state. We believe this
situation creates opportunities.
California has abundant and long-lived oil and gas resources with prolific hydrocarbon basins.
Infrastructure supporting oil and gas exploration, development and production activities is in
place, consisting of contractors, suppliers, pipelines and refineries. Most oil and gas basins in
the state are significantly under-explored even near large fields, with operators concentrating on
a few, large, heavy oil resources. Offset exploration in and near fields has frequently been
ignored. There is a dramatic lack of use of 3D seismic and other latest seismic technologies in
many of the basins, and in some areas (such as the Eel River Basin) we believe there has been
insufficient attention to drilling and drilling fluid engineering. Through the experience and
relationships of management, we have strong ties to other significant oil and gas companies
operating in California.
Texas
On September 8, 2006, Foothills Texas, Inc. consummated the acquisition of TARH E&P Holdings,
L.P.s interests in four oilfields in southeastern Texas. We paid aggregate consideration of $62
million for the properties, comprised of a cash payment of approximately $57.5 million and the
issuance of 1,605,345 shares of common stock to TARH E&P Holdings, L.P.
In the acquisition, Foothills Texas acquired interests in four fields: the Goose Creek Field and
Goose Creek East Field, both in Harris County, Texas, the Cleveland Field, located in Liberty
County, Texas, and the Saratoga Field located in Hardin County, Texas. These interests represent
working interests ranging from 95% to 100% in the four fields.
63
Oklahoma
The Anadarko Basin in western Oklahoma and the Texas panhandle is one of the most prolific oil and
natural gas producing basins in the United States. Most of the shallow shelf portion of the basin
can be characterized as very mature. We believe that much promise remains in the deeper portion of
the basin that is characterized by stratigraphic traps in the Pennsylvanian Morrow formation and
structural traps in the Ordovician Hunton formation, two of the formations targeted by the Company.
However, to produce oil and natural gas from these deeper formations, drilling is more expensive
and the 3-D seismic data is less reliable than in the shallow shelf portion of the basin.
Project Status
Eel River Basin
The Eel River Basin is the northernmost of the California sedimentary basins. Most of the basin
exists offshore of northern California and southern Oregon. However, a portion of the basin is
present onshore in Humboldt County, California. Hydrocarbons generated in the deeper offshore part
of the basin have migrated updip into the Miocene and Pliocene rocks present in this area. The
onshore portion of the basin contains the Tompkins Hill natural gas field that was discovered by
Texaco in 1937. It is now owned and operated by Occidental, has produced in excess of 120 billion
cubic feet (BCF) of natural gas, and is continuing to produce.
The Grizzly Bluff area within the Eel River Basin (approximately five miles south of the Tompkins
Hill Field) was initially proven to contain natural gas in three wells drilled by Zephyr in the
mid-1960s. These wells tested gas at rates of 1.9 to 5 million cubic feet of gas per day. In the
early 1970s, Chevron drilled a deep well seeking oil but found strong indications of natural gas.
In the late 1980s and early 1990s, ARCO drilled several wells and found natural gas in the shallow
zones, one of which tested gas at rates of up to 2.2 million cubic feet (MMCF) of gas per day.
None of these wells were put into production due to the lack of a natural gas market and pipeline
connection, and all of them were subsequently abandoned.
In the past decade, we believe the industry has overlooked the hydrocarbon potential and production
within the Eel River Basin due to its relatively isolated position in California. INNEX Energy,
L.L.C. recognized this overlooked potential in the form of multiple low resistivity, low contrast
sands that possibly define part of a widespread, basin-centered natural gas play. INNEX Energy,
L.L.C. began acquiring oil and gas leases in the area in 2000 to test this concept and entered into
a joint venture with Forexco, Inc. in 2002. A subsequent 10-well drilling program in 2003 by
Forexco, Inc. encountered drilling and completion problems, but established production from four
wells in the Grizzly Bluff area that are now producing approximately 500 thousand cubic feet of gas
per day. This field was brought on line in late 2003 with the completion of a natural gas gathering
system and a new pipeline that connects to the PG&E Corporation backbone grid for northern
California. INNEX Energy, L.L.C. and Forexco, Inc. terminated their joint venture in 2004.
The Tompkins Hill Field is the analog field in the basin for the Eel River Project. The distance
between the Tompkins Hill Field and the Grizzly Bluff Field is approximately five miles. This
production is from similar age rocks at similar depths as the Grizzly Bluff Prospect, the first
prospect that we drilled in the Eel River Project. Our mapping indicates that substantial natural
gas reserves occur above the lowest tested gas in the Grizzly Bluff Field in multiple stacked
Pliocene sandstone reservoirs.
During the period from June through August, 2006, we drilled the Christiansen 3-15 well and the
Vicenus 1-3 well in the Grizzly Bluff Field to total depths of 4,815 feet and 5,747 feet,
respectively. We commenced commercial production from the Christiansen 3-15 well and Vicenus 1-3
wells in September, 2006 and January, 2007, respectively. The two wells currently have a combined
production of approximately 550,000 cubic feet of gas per day with a very favorable decline
profile.
The Eel River Project is the centerpiece of a large exploitation-exploration opportunity. There is
presently minimal competition in the basin, providing us with an opportunity to effectively control
the entire basin.
64
Texas
We have established and initiated an ongoing recompletion program that is expected to increase
daily production from
the fields in Texas. A 3D seismic survey, which has been proven to be an effective exploration tool
in the area, is presently being planned to identify the upside potential at the Goose Creek Field
and Goose Creek East Field. The 3D seismic survey is expected to result in much more accurate
mapping of the reservoirs and lead to the identification of undeveloped opportunities and deeper
oil prospects at the fields. In addition, the seismic surveys in these areas show a strong gas
signature over gas reservoirs, a Direct Hydrocarbon Indicator (DHI). This DHI effect directly
contributed to the discovery of two nearby natural gas fields from the Vicksburg reservoirs.
However, a seismic DHI signature cannot reliably identify reservoirs that are economically
productive of hydrocarbons. The Company believes that the deeper Vicksburg reservoirs offer
significant upside potential in the Goose Creek Field, where old wellbores encountered gas that was
not produced at the time of discovery. A gas pipeline runs through the eastern part of the
property, which should allow for early monetization of this gas.
The combined oil production from the four oilfields currently averages about 800 barrels per day.
Our average net revenue interest in this production is approximately 75%.
Anadarko Basin
The initial focus of our activities within the Anadarko Basin has been the area covered by a 75
square mile 3D seismic survey in Roger Mills County, Oklahoma. Through a license held by TeTra
Exploration, Inc. (which is owned by our President, John Moran), the Company is planning to acquire
non-exclusive access to this survey, which was shot in 1998. The 3D seismic survey was initially
shot by a major oil company to define stratigraphic traps in the Pennsylvanian sedimentary section
in an area of substantial Pennsylvanian natural gas production. That company drilled only one well
using the 3D seismic data set. The well encountered wet Morrow sand and was plugged and abandoned.
That company subsequently exited oil and gas exploration activity in the MidContinent region and no
further activity has been conducted in the area using this data. Numerous exploratory ideas remain
to be exploited on this data set, both in the Pennsylvanian section as well as the deeper
Ordovician section. The best wells completed in these rocks typically flow in excess of 10 MMCF of
natural gas per day and contain reserves in the 20 to 50 BCF range.
TeTra Exploration has reprocessed the 3D seismic data and completed preliminary geological and
geophysical interpretations of the data. Upon consummation of an agreement with TreTra Exploration
to acquire non-exclusive access to the 3D seismic data, we plan to finalize the interpretations,
identify drillable prospects, acquire oil and gas leases over those prospects, and negotiate joint
ventures with other companies, who will be able to earn interests in the leases by drilling one or
more exploratory wells on the prospects.
Markets and Customers
The market for oil and natural gas that we will produce depends on factors beyond our control,
including the extent of domestic production and imports of oil and natural gas, the proximity and
capacity of natural gas pipelines and other transportation facilities, demand for oil and natural
gas, the marketing of competitive fuels and the effects of state and federal regulation. The oil
and gas industry also competes with other industries in supplying the energy and fuel requirements
of industrial, commercial and individual consumers.
Our oil production is expected to be sold at prices tied to the spot oil markets. Our natural gas
production is expected to be sold under short-term contracts and priced based on first of the month
index prices or on daily spot market prices.
Regulations
General
Our business is affected by numerous laws and regulations, including energy, environmental,
conservation, tax and other laws and regulations relating to the energy industry. Most of our
drilling operations will require permit or authorizations from federal, state or local agencies.
Changes in any of these laws and regulations or the denial or vacating of permits could have a
material adverse effect on our business. In view of the many uncertainties with respect to current
and future laws and regulations, including their applicability to us, we cannot predict the overall
effect of such laws and regulations on our future operations.
We believe that our operations comply in all material respects with applicable laws and
regulations. There are no pending or threatened enforcement actions related to any such laws or
regulations. We believe that the existence and
65
enforcement of such laws and regulations will have no more restrictive an effect on our operations
than on other similar companies in the energy industry.
Proposals and proceedings that might affect the oil and gas industry are pending before Congress,
the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), state legislatures and commissions and the
courts. We cannot predict when or whether any such proposals may become effective. In the past, the
natural gas industry has been heavily regulated. There is no assurance that the regulatory approach
currently pursued by various agencies will continue indefinitely. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we
do not anticipate that compliance with existing federal, state and local laws, rules and
regulations will have a material adverse effect upon our capital expenditures, earnings or
competitive position.
Federal Regulation of Sales and Transportation of Natural Gas
Historically, the transportation and sale of natural gas and its component parts in interstate
commerce has been regulated under several laws enacted by Congress and the regulations passed under
these laws by FERC. Our sales of natural gas, including condensate and liquids, may be affected by
the availability, terms and cost of transportation. The price and terms of access to pipeline
transportation are subject to extensive federal and state regulation. From 1985 to the present,
several major regulatory changes have been implemented by Congress and FERC that affect the
economics of natural gas production, transportation and sales. In addition, FERC is continually
proposing and implementing new rules and regulations affecting those segments of the natural gas
industry, most notably interstate natural gas transmission companies that remain subject to FERCs
jurisdiction. These initiatives may also affect the intrastate transportation of gas under certain
circumstances. The stated purpose of many of these regulatory changes is to promote competition
among the various sectors of the natural gas industry.
The ultimate impact of the complex rules and regulations issued by FERC cannot be predicted. In
addition, many aspects of these regulatory developments have not become final but are still pending
judicial and final FERC decisions. We cannot predict what further action FERC will take on these
matters. Some of FERCs more recent proposals may, however, adversely affect the availability and
reliability of interruptible transportation service on interstate pipelines. We do not believe that
we will be affected by any action taken materially differently than other natural gas producers,
gatherers and marketers with whom we compete.
State Regulation
Our operations are also subject to regulation at the state and in some cases, county, municipal and
local governmental levels. Such regulation includes requiring permits for the drilling of wells,
maintaining bonding requirements in order to drill or operate wells and regulating the location of
wells, the method of drilling and casing wells, the surface use and restoration of properties upon
which wells are drilled, the plugging and abandonment of wells and the disposal of fluids used and
produced in connection with operations. Our operations are also subject to various conservation
laws and regulations pertaining to the size of drilling and spacing units or proration units and
the unitization or pooling of oil and gas properties.
In addition, state conservation laws, which frequently establish maximum rates of production from
oil and gas wells, generally prohibit the venting or flaring of gas and impose certain requirements
regarding the rates of production. State regulation of gathering facilities generally includes
various safety, environmental and, in some circumstances, nondiscriminatory take requirements, but,
except as noted above, does not generally entail rate regulation. These regulatory burdens may
affect profitability, but we are unable to predict the future cost or impact of complying with such
regulations.
Environmental Matters
We are subject to extensive federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations relating to
water, air, hazardous substances and wastes, and threatened or endangered species that restrict or
limit our business activities for purposes of protecting human health and the environment.
Compliance with the multitude of regulations issued by federal, state, and local administrative
agencies can be burdensome and costly. State environmental regulatory programs are generally very
similar to the corresponding federal environmental regulatory programs, and federal environmental
regulatory programs are often delegated to the states.
Our oil and gas exploration and production operations are subject to state and/or federal solid
waste regulations that govern the storage, treatment and disposal of solid and hazardous wastes.
However, much of the solid waste that will
66
be generated by our oil and gas exploration and production activities is exempt from regulation
under federal, and many state, regulatory programs. To the extent our operations generate solid
waste, such waste is generally subject to state regulations. We will comply with solid waste
regulations in the normal course of business.
In addition to solid and hazardous waste, our production operations may generate produced water as
a waste material. This water can sometimes be disposed of by discharging it to surface waters under
discharge permits issued pursuant to the Clean Water Act, or an equivalent state program. Another
common method of produced water disposal is subsurface injection in disposal wells. Such disposal
wells are permitted under the Safe Drinking Water Act, or an equivalent state regulatory program.
The drilling, completion, and operation of produced water disposal wells are integral to oil and
gas operations.
Air emissions and exhaust from gas-fired generators and from other equipment, such as gas
compressors, are potentially subject to regulations under the Clean Air Act, or equivalent state
regulatory programs. To the extent that our air emissions are regulated, they are generally
regulated by permits issued by state regulatory agencies. We will obtain air permits, where needed,
in the normal course of business.
In the event that spills or releases of crude oil or produced water occur, we would be subject to
spill notification and response regulations under the Clean Water Act, or equivalent state
regulatory programs. Depending on the nature and location of our operations, we may also be
required to prepare spill prevention, control and countermeasure response plans under the Clean
Water Act, or equivalent state regulatory programs. Response costs could be high and may have a
material adverse effect on our operations. We may not be fully insured for these costs.
Failure to comply with environmental regulations may result in the imposition of substantial
administrative, civil, or criminal penalties, or restrict or prohibit our desired business
activities. Environmental laws and regulations impose liability, sometimes strict liability, for
environmental cleanup costs and other damages. Other environmental laws and regulations may delay
or prohibit exploration and production activities in environmentally sensitive areas or impose
additional costs on these activities.
Costs associated with responding to a major spill of crude oil or produced water, or costs
associated with remediation of environmental contamination, are the most likely occurrences that
could result in a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of
operations. In addition, changes in applicable federal, state and local environmental laws and
regulations potentially could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition
and results of operations.
Competition
The oil and gas industry is highly competitive. Competitors include major oil companies, other
independent energy companies and individual producers and operators, many of which have financial
resources, personnel and facilities substantially greater than we have. We face intense competition
for the acquisition of oil and gas leases and properties. For a more thorough discussion of how
competition could impact our ability to successfully complete our business strategy, see Risk
Factors Competition in obtaining rights to explore and develop oil and gas reserves and to
market our production may impair our business.
Employees
As of June 30, 2007 the Company had 13 full-time employees. None of our employees is represented by
a labor union, and we consider our employee relations to be good.
Description of Property
We commenced our present business activities in April, 2006. All of the Companys oil and gas
exploration, development and production activities are located in the United States.

Present Activities
As of December 31, 2006, one gross (0.8 net) exploratory well in California had been drilled with
indications of productivity, but was awaiting the installation of production equipment to complete
final testing. This equipment was installed and production from the well commenced in January,
2007.
Our principal executive offices are located at 4540 California Avenue, Suite 550, Bakersfield,
California 93309 and our phone number is (661) 716-1320. We currently lease approximately 4,500

anticipated growth will be available in the future on commercially reasonable terms.
Legal Proceedings
From time to time we may become a party to litigation or other legal proceedings that, in the
opinion of our management are part of the ordinary course of our business. Currently, no legal
proceedings or claims are pending against or involve us that, in the opinion of our management,
could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects,
financial condition or results of operations.

2007 Equity Incentive Plan
Our 2007 Equity Incentive Plan enables our board of directors to provide equity-based
incentives through grants or awards of incentive awards to our present and future employees,
directors, consultants and other third party service providers. As of June 30, 2007, we had
thirteen employees, five executive officers, six directors, and three consultants and other third
party service providers eligible to participate in the equity incentive plan.
The board of directors reserved a total of 5,000,000 shares of our common stock for issuance
under the equity incentive plan. Shares issued under the plan through the settlement, assumption or
substitution of outstanding awards or obligations to grant future awards as a condition of
acquiring another entity will not reduce the maximum number of shares available under the plan. In
addition, the number of shares of our common stock issuable under the plan, any number of shares
subject to any numerical limit in the plan, and the number of shares and terms of any incentive
award will be adjusted in the event of any change in our outstanding common stock by reason of any
stock dividend, spin-off, split-up, stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization,
reclassification, merger, consolidation, liquidation, business combination or exchange of shares or
similar transaction.
The compensation committee administers the plan. Subject to the terms of the plan, the
compensation committee will have complete authority and discretion to determine the terms of awards
under the plan.
The plan authorizes the grant, to participants, of nonqualified stock options, incentive stock
options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, performance grants intended to comply
with Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, and stock appreciation rights, as described
below:
|
|
|
|
Options granted under the plan entitle the grantee, upon exercise, to
purchase a specified number of shares from us at a specified exercise
price per share. The
exercise price for shares of common stock covered by an option cannot be
less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant
unless we agree otherwise at the time of the grant. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Restricted stock awards and restricted stock units may be awarded
on terms and conditions established by the compensation committee, which
may include performance conditions for restricted stock awards and the
lapse of restrictions on the achievement of one or more performance goals
for restricted stock units. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Unrestricted stock awards that are free of any vesting
requirements may be awarded by the compensation committee. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
The compensation committee may make performance grants, each of
which will contain performance goals for the award, including the
performance criteria, the target and maximum amounts payable, and other
terms and conditions. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
The plan authorizes the granting of stock awards. The compensation
committee will establish the number of shares of common stock to be
awarded and the terms applicable to each award, including performance
restrictions. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Stock appreciation rights entitle the participant to receive a
distribution in an amount not to exceed the number of shares of common
stock subject to the portion of the stock appreciation right exercised
multiplied by the difference between the market price of a share of common
stock on the date of exercise of the stock appreciation right and the
market price of a share of common stock on the date of grant of the stock
appreciation right. |
|
The board of directors may suspend or terminate the plan without stockholder approval or
ratification at any time or from time to time. Unless sooner terminated, the plan will terminate 10
years after it was adopted. The board of directors may also amend the plan at any time. No change
may be made that increases the total number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance
pursuant to incentive awards or reduces the minimum exercise price for options or exchange of
options for other incentive awards, unless such change is authorized by our stockholders.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
On April 7, 2006, we entered into an agreement with Moyes & Co., Inc. to identify potential
acquisition, development, exploitation and exploration opportunities that fit with our strategy.
Moyes & Co., Inc. screens opportunities and performs detailed evaluation of those opportunities
that we decide to pursue, and assists with due diligence and negotiations with respect to such
opportunities. Christopher P. Moyes is the beneficial owner of 2.6%
of our common stock as of June 30, 2007, and is a member of our board of directors. Mr. Moyes is a major shareholder and the
President of Moyes & Co., Inc. Because Moyes & Co., Inc. is being compensated for identifying
opportunities and assisting us in pursuing those opportunities, the interests of Moyes & Co., Inc.
are not the same as our interests. We are responsible for evaluating any opportunities presented to
us by Moyes & Co., Inc. to determine if those opportunities are consistent with our business
strategy.
Christopher Moyes has foregone his compensation as a director, pursuant to the terms of our
agreement with Moyes & Co., Inc., dated April 7, 2006. Under the agreement, we will pay Moyes &
Co., Inc. a monthly retainer of $17,500 for a period of one year and additional fees for services
requested that exceed those covered by the retainer, and reimburse normal business travel and other
expenses, in exchange for Moyes & Co., Inc.s services to us.
Pursuant to our business plan with respect to the Anadarko Basin in southwest Oklahoma, we
anticipate acquiring non-exclusive rights, from TeTra Exploration, Inc., to a 3D seismic survey in
Roger Mills County, Oklahoma. TeTra Exploration, Inc. is a company that is owned by John Moran, our
President. TeTra Exploration, Inc. has reprocessed the 3D survey and completed preliminary
geological and geophysical interpretations of the survey data. Upon our completion of an agreement
with TeTra Exploration, Inc., we plan to finalize the interpretations, identify drillable
prospects, acquire oil and gas leases over those prospects, and negotiate joint ventures with other
companies.

As of

shares of preferred stock. In addition, there were issued and outstanding warrants to acquire
20,597,532 shares of our common stock.
The following description of Foothills capital stock is derived from the provisions of Foothills
articles of incorporation and by-laws, the terms of the warrants, registration rights agreements
and option agreements executed by Foothills, as well as provisions of applicable law. Such
description is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirely by reference to the
relevant provisions of Foothills articles of incorporation and by-laws, which have been publicly

Description of Common Stock
Foothills
is authorized to issue 250,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share,
60,462,670 of which were issued and outstanding on June 30, 2007. Holders of our common stock are
entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters submitted to a stockholder vote. Holders of
our common stock do not have cumulative voting rights. Therefore, holders of a majority of the
shares of common stock voting for the election of directors can elect all of the directors. Holders
of the common stock representing a majority of the voting power of the capital stock issued,
outstanding and entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, are necessary to constitute a
quorum at any meeting of stockholders. A vote by the holders of a majority of the outstanding
shares of common stock is required to effectuate certain fundamental corporate changes such as
liquidation, merger or an amendment to the articles of incorporation.
Holders of common stock are entitled to share in all dividends that our board of directors, in its
discretion, declares from legally available funds. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or
winding up, each outstanding share of common stock entitles its holder to participate pro rata in
all assets that remain after payment of liabilities and after providing for each class of stock, if
any, having preference over the common stock. Holders of the common stock have no pre-emptive
rights, no conversion rights and there are no redemption provisions applicable to the common stock.
Description of Preferred Stock
Foothills
is authorized to issue 25,000,000 shares of blank check preferred stock, par value
$0.001 per share, none of which are issued and outstanding as of
June 30, 2007. Our board of
directors is vested with authority to divide the shares of preferred stock into series and fix and
determine the relative rights and preferences of the shares of any such series. Once authorized,
the dividend or interest rates, conversion rates, voting rights, redemption prices, maturity dates
and similar characteristics of the preferred stock will be determined by our board of directors,
without the necessity of obtaining approval of the stockholders.
Description of Warrants
We have issued, and there are currently outstanding, warrants to purchase 20,597,532 shares of our
common stock. Of this total, warrants to acquire 12,077,380 shares of common stock were issued at
an exercise price of $1.00 per share. Of these outstanding warrants, warrants to acquire 10,958,046
shares of common stock will expire on April 6, 2011 and warrants to acquire 1,119,334 shares of
common stock will expire on April 20, 2011. These warrants were issued in the private offering of
our securities which closed on April 6, 2006 and April 20, 2006.
Warrants
to acquire 8,046,919 shares of our common stock were issued at an exercise price of $2.75
per share. Of this number, warrants to acquire 8,000,017 shares of common stock will expire on
September 8, 2011 and warrants to acquire 46,902 shares of common stock will expire on September
27, 2007. These warrants were issued in the private offering of our securities which closed on
September 8, 2006 and September 27, 2006. In this September private offering of our securities, we
issued the placement agent in the offering a warrant to acquire 473,233 shares of
common stock at an exercise price of $2.25 per share.
79
Warrants issued in the April, 2006 Offering
In our private offering of securities during April, 2006, we issued warrants to acquire 12,874,045
shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share, of which warrants for 889,076
shares have been exercised. These warrants are exercisable for five years from the date of their
issuance, and if they are not exercised by the fifth anniversary of their issuance, they will
expire and become void and of no value.
The exercise price and number of shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants will be adjusted to
reflect any subdivision or combination of our common stock, any stock dividends or similar
rearrangements of the common stock, or any reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger
or sale of Foothills. The warrants and the shares of common stock underlying the warrants issued to
investors in the April, 2006 private offering are being registered for resale by their holders
under this prospectus.
Warrants Issued in the September, 2006 Offering
In our private offering of securities during September, 2006, we issued warrants to acquire
8,046,919 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $2.75 per share. These warrants are
exercisable for five years from the date of their issuance, and if they are not exercised by the
fifth anniversary of their issuance, they will expire and become void and of no value.
The warrants are subject to mandatory exercise, at the Companys option, if (i) the shares
underlying the warrant are registered pursuant to a registration statement that has remained
effective at least 45 consecutive days prior to the mandatory exercise date, (ii) our common stock
is listed on the New York Stock Exchange, American Stock Exchange or NASDAQ Global Market, and
(iii) the closing price of the common stock is at least $5.50 per share for at least 20 consecutive
trading days prior to the date we exercise our mandatory exercise right. The exercise price and
number of shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants will be adjusted to reflect any subdivision
or combination of our common stock, any stock dividends or similar rearrangements of the common
stock, or any reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or sale of Foothills
Resources, Inc.
The warrants and the shares of common stock underlying the warrants issued to investors in the
September, 2006 private offering are being registered for resale by their holders under this
prospectus.
Warrant Issued to Goldman, Sachs & Co.
In connection with our September 8, 2006 execution of a credit and guaranty agreement with J. Aron
& Company, an affiliate of Goldman, Sachs & Co., we issued to Goldman, Sachs & Co. a warrant to
purchase 3,000,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $2.75 per share. This warrant
will be exercisable for five years from the date of issuance, and if not exercised by the fifth
anniversary of its issuance will expire and become void and of no value. The warrant issued to the
Goldman, Sachs & Co. had substantially the same provision for mandatory exercise by the company,
and the same registration rights, as the warrants issued to investors in the September, 2006
offering of our securities, as described above.
The Placement Agent Warrants
Upon the closing of our April, 2006 private offering of our securities, we issued a warrant to
acquire 92,411 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share to Sanders Morris
Harris Inc., our placement agent in the offering. The warrants were issued to Sanders Morris Harris
Inc. as consideration for its services as the placement agent in the April, 2006 offering. The
warrant has a five-year exercise term and the same registration rights as the warrants issued to
investors in the offering. Upon the September 8, 2006 and September 27, 2006 closings of our
September, 2006 private offering of our securities, we issued warrants to acquire shares of our
common stock to Sanders Morris Harris Inc., our placement agent in the offering. On September 8,
2006, we issued a warrant to acquire 466,666 shares of our common stock, and on September 27, 2006,
we issued a warrant to acquire 6,567 shares of our common stock. Each warrant had an exercise price
of $2.25 per share. The warrants were issued to Sanders Morris Harris Inc. as consideration for its
services as the placement agent in the September, 2006 offering. The warrants each have a five-year
exercise term and the same registration rights as the warrants issued to investors in the offering
and the warrant issued to Goldman, Sachs & Co. in connection with our credit and guaranty agreement
with J. Aron &
Company.
80
Description of Options
The Company has issued stock options under the 2006 Plan to plan participants to purchase a total
of 1,875,000 shares of common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $1.52. Under the terms
of the 2006 Plan, we may issue incentive awards that may include the issuance of up to 2,000,000
shares of common stock (inclusive of the 1,875,000 shares with respect to previously granted
options). The 2006 Plan was adopted by our board of directors prior to the merger between our
wholly-owned subsidiary and Foothills California, Inc. on
April 6, 2006. The Company has not issued stock options to
purchase Company common stock under its 2007 Equity Executive Plan.
Registration Rights Agreements
September 8, 2006 Registration Rights Agreement
Pursuant to the registration rights agreement among the Company and the investors in the offering,
dated as of September 8, 2006, we agreed to file a registration statement covering the shares of
our common stock, including shares underlying warrants, issued in connection with the private
offering of our securities in September, 2006, within 30 calendar days from September 8, 2006. We
agreed to use reasonable efforts to cause the registration statement to become effective no later
than 120 days after the date it is filed, unless the registration statement is subject to review by
the SEC, in which case the Company will have 150 days from the filing date in which to have the
registration statement declared effective. We will be required to maintain the effectiveness of the
registration statement until all shares registered thereunder have been sold or until the holding
period of Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act has been satisfied with respect to all of the shares
of Common Stock (including the shares underlying the warrants) issued in the September, 2006
offering, whichever is earlier. In the event that the registration statement is not declared
effective by the SEC by the mandatory effective date, we will be obligated to pay each investor
liquidated damages of one percent (1%) of the purchase price set forth in the securities purchase
agreement, each month for such time period beyond the mandatory effective date that such
registration statement is not effective or beyond any applicable suspension period, provided that
the total of such liquidated damages shall not exceed 10% of the purchase price. The securities
issued in the September, 2006 offering were granted piggyback registration rights by the holders
of prior registration rights and will be registered on the same registration statement.
TARH E&P Holdings, L.P. Registration Rights Agreement
We agreed to file a registration statement to register for resale the common stock of the Company
that was issued to TARH E&P Holdings, LP (TARH) as consideration in our acquisition of certain
properties from TARH. Pursuant to the terms of our registration rights agreement, dated as of
September 8, 2006, by and between the Company and TARH (the TARH Registration Agreement). We
agreed to file a registration statement for the common stock issued to TARH no later than 90
calendar days from September 8, 2006. Under the TARH Registration Agreement, we agreed to use
reasonable efforts to cause the registration statement to be declared effective by the SEC no later
than 120 calendar days after the filing date unless such registration statement is reviewed by the
SEC, in which case we will have 150 calendar days in which to cause the registration statement to
be declared effective by the SEC. We are obligated under the TARH Registration Agreement to
maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement until all shares registered thereunder are
sold by the holders or until the two-year holding period of Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act is
satisfied, whichever is earlier.
April 6, 2006 Registration Rights Agreement
Pursuant to the registration rights agreement entered into by the Company and the investors in our
April, 2006 private offering of securities, dated April 6, 2006, we were obligated, within 120 days
of April 6, 2006, to file a registration statement with the SEC registering for resale all of the
shares of common stock, including shares underlying warrants, sold to investors in the April, 2006
offering, as well as certain shares of our common stock issued as a finder fee in connection with
the April, 2006 merger. If the shares are not registered according to the terms of the registration
rights agreement, then the Company will make payments to each investor at a rate equal to 1% of the
purchase price per share of registrable securities then held by an investor monthly, for each
calendar month of the registration default period. On August 16, 2006, the majority holders of our
common stock approved the extension of the registration filing date from August 4, 2006 to August
31, 2006, and later approved to further extend the registration filing date to September
81
30, 2006. The terms of the April, 2006 registration rights agreement stated that the Company may
not file or request acceleration of any other registration statement until the registration
statement covering the registrable securities issued to investors in the April, 2006 offering has
been declared effective by the SEC. The majority of the holders of our common stock agreed to waive
this provision and allow for the registration of additional shares issued in the private offering
of our securities in September, 2006 and in the acquisition of properties from TARH E&P Holdings,
L.P.
Indemnification; Limitation of Liability
Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS) Sections 78.7502 and 78.751 provide us with the power to indemnify
any of our directors and officers. The director or officer must have conducted himself/herself in
good faith and reasonably believe that his/her conduct was in, or not opposed to our best
interests. In a criminal action, the director, officer, employee or agent must not have had
reasonable cause to believe his/her conduct was unlawful.
Under NRS Section 78.751, advances for expenses may be made by agreement if the director or officer
affirms in writing that he/she believes he/she has met the standards and will personally repay the
expenses if it is determined such officer or director did not meet the standards.
Our bylaws include an indemnification provision under which we have the power to indemnify our
directors, officers and former directors and officers (including heirs and personal
representatives) against all costs, charges and expenses actually and reasonably incurred,
including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment to which the director or officer
is made a party by reason of being or having been a director or officer of Foothills or any of our
subsidiaries.
Our bylaws also provide that the directors may cause Foothills to purchase and maintain insurance
for the benefit of a person who is or was serving as a director, officer, employee or agent of
Foothills or any of our subsidiaries (including heirs and personal representatives) against a
liability incurred by him/her as a director, officer, employee or agent.
Our articles of incorporation provide a limitation of liability in that no director or officer
shall be personally liable to Foothills or any of our stockholders for damages for breach of
fiduciary duty as director or officer involving any act or omission of any such director or
officer, provided there was no intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the law, or
payment of dividends in violation of NRS Section 78.300.
Our employment and indemnification agreements with certain of our executive officers contain
provisions which require us to indemnify them for costs, charges and expenses incurred in
connection with (i) civil, criminal or administrative actions resulting from the executive officers
service as such and (ii) actions by us or on our behalf to which the executive officer is made a
party. We are required to provide such indemnification if (i) the executive officer acted honestly
and in good faith with a view to our best interests, and (ii) in the case of a criminal or
administrative proceeding or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary policy, the executive
officer had reasonable grounds for believing that his conduct was lawful.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted for
our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise,
we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy
as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
Anti-Takeover Effects of Provisions of Nevada State Law
We may be or in the future we may become subject to Nevadas control share law. A corporation is
subject to Nevadas control share law if it has more than 200 stockholders, at least 100 of whom
are stockholders of record and residents of Nevada, and if the corporation does business in Nevada
or through an affiliated corporation.
The law focuses on the acquisition of a controlling interest which means the ownership of
outstanding voting shares is sufficient, but for the control share law, to enable the acquiring
person to exercise the following proportions of the voting power of the corporation in the election
of directors: (1) one-fifth or more but less than one-third, (2) one-third or more but less than a
majority, or (3) a majority or more. The ability to exercise such voting power may be direct or
indirect, as well as individual or in association with others.
82
The effect of the control share law is that the acquiring person, and those acting in association
with it, obtain only such voting rights in the control shares as are conferred by a resolution of
the stockholders of the corporation, approved at a special or annual meeting of stockholders. The
control share law contemplates that voting rights will be considered only once by the other
stockholders. Thus, there is no authority to take away voting rights from the control shares of an
acquiring person once those rights have been approved. If the stockholders do not grant voting
rights to the control shares acquired by an acquiring person, those shares do not become permanent
non-voting shares. The acquiring person is free to sell its shares to others. If the buyers of
those shares themselves do not acquire a controlling interest, their shares do not become governed
by the control share law.
If control shares are accorded full voting rights and the acquiring person has acquired control
shares with a majority or more of the voting power, any stockholder of record, other than an
acquiring person, who has not voted in favor of approval of voting rights is entitled to demand
fair value for such stockholders shares.
Nevadas control share law may have the effect of discouraging corporate takeovers.
In addition to the control share law, Nevada has a business combination law, which prohibits
certain business combinations between Nevada corporations and interested stockholders for three
years after the interested stockholder first becomes an interested stockholder unless the
corporations board of directors approves the combination in advance. For purposes of Nevada law,
an interested stockholder is any person who is (1) the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly,
of ten percent or more of the voting power of the outstanding voting shares of the corporation, or
(2) an affiliate or associate of the corporation and at any time within the three previous years
was the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of ten percent or more of the voting power of the
then outstanding shares of the corporation. The definition of the term business combination is
sufficiently broad to cover virtually any kind of transaction that would allow a potential acquirer
to use the corporations assets to finance the acquisition or otherwise to benefit its own
interests rather than the interests of the corporation and its other stockholders.
The effect of Nevadas business combination law is to potentially discourage parties interested in
taking control of Foothills from doing so if it cannot obtain the approval of our board of
directors.

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
Upon the merger between our wholly-owned subsidiary and Foothills California, Inc. (formerly
Brasada California, Inc.), Foothills California, Inc. became our wholly-owned subsidiary. Following
the merger, our management and business operations became substantially the management and business
operations of Foothills California, Inc. prior to the merger.
Prior to the merger, the independent registered public accounting firm for the Registrant was
Amisano Hanson Chartered Accountants, and the independent registered public accounting firm for
Foothills California, Inc. was Brown, Armstrong, Paulden, McCown, Starbuck, Thornburgh & Keeter
Accountancy Corporation. Because the merger was treated as a reverse acquisition for accounting
purposes, our historical financial reports filed after the merger will be those of Foothills
California, Inc., the accounting acquirer, prior to the merger. Accordingly, our board of directors
changed our independent registered public accounting firm from Amisano Hanson to Brown Armstrong.
Amisano Hanson was formally dismissed as our independent registered public accounting firm on April
12, 2006, effective as of April 6, 2006, and Brown Armstrong was engaged as our independent
registered public accounting firm on April 6, 2006. As a result of its role as the auditor of
Foothills California, Inc. prior to the Merger, Brown Armstrong consulted with us regarding the
merger.
The reports of Amisano Hanson on our financial statements for fiscal years ended December 31, 2005
and 2004 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or
modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles, but did include an explanatory
paragraph relating to our ability to continue as a going concern.
In connection with the audit of our financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31,
2005 and 2004, and through the date of the dismissal (and including the period from April 6, 2006
through April 12, 2006), there were no disagreements with Amisano Hanson on any matter of
accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure,
which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Amisano Hanson, would have caused Amisano Hanson to
make reference to the matter in its reports.
During fiscal year 2006, through the date of the dismissal of Amisano Hanson, no information is
required to be reported under Item 304(a)(1)(iv)(B) of Regulation S-B. This change in accountants
was disclosed in Amendment 1 to Foothills Current Report on Form 8-K/A, filed with the SEC on May
5, 2006.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Foothills Resources, Inc.
Bakersfield, California
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Foothills Resources, Inc. (a Nevada corporation)
as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the related consolidated statements of operations, cash
flows, and stockholders equity for the year ended December 31, 2006 and for the period from
inception (December 29, 2005) through December 31, 2005. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the companys 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 about 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Foothills Resources, Inc. as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and
the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2006 and for the
period from inception (December 29, 2005) through December 31, 2005 in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

FOOTHILLS RESOURCES, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2006
Note 1 Summary of Operations
Foothills Resources, Inc. (Foothills), a Nevada corporation, and its subsidiaries are
collectively referred to herein as the Company. The Company is a growth-oriented independent
energy company engaged in the acquisition, exploration, exploitation and development of oil and
natural gas properties. The Company currently holds interests in properties in the Texas Gulf Coast
area, in the Eel River Basin in northern California, and in the Anadarko Basin in southwest
Oklahoma.
The Company took its current form on April 6, 2006, when Brasada California, Inc. (Brasada)
merged with and into an acquisition subsidiary of Foothills. Brasada was formed on December 29,
2005 as Brasada Resources LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and converted to a Delaware
corporation on February 28, 2006. Following the merger, Brasada changed its name to Foothills
California, Inc. (Foothills California) and is now a wholly owned operating subsidiary of
Foothills. This transaction was accounted for as a reverse takeover of the Company by Foothills
California. The Company adopted the assets, management, business operations and business plan of
Foothills California. The financial statements of the Company prior to the merger were eliminated
at consolidation.
Note 2 Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned
subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation. The Company accounts for its investments in oil and gas joint ventures using the
proportionate consolidation method, whereby the Companys proportionate share of each ventures
assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses is included in the appropriate classification in the
financial statements.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the amounts reported in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from such estimates.
Changes in such estimates may affect amounts reported in future periods.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and on deposit, and highly liquid debt instruments
with original maturities of three months or less.
Oil and gas properties
The Company follows the full-cost method of accounting for oil and gas properties. Under this
method, all productive and nonproductive costs incurred in connection with the acquisition,
exploration and development of oil and gas
F-6
reserves are capitalized in separate cost centers for each country in which the Company has
operations. Such capitalized costs include leasehold acquisition, geological, geophysical and other
exploration work, drilling, completing and equipping oil and gas wells, asset retirement costs,
internal costs directly attributable to property acquisition, exploration and development, and
other related costs. The Company also capitalizes interest costs related to unevaluated oil and gas
properties.
The capitalized costs of oil and gas properties in each cost center are amortized using the
unit-of-production method. Sales or other dispositions of oil and gas properties are normally
accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs. Gains or losses are not recognized in income
unless a significant portion of a cost centers reserves is involved. Capitalized costs associated
with the acquisition and evaluation of unproved properties are excluded from amortization until it
is determined whether proved reserves can be assigned to such properties or until the value of the
properties is impaired. Unproved properties are assessed at least annually to determine whether any
impairment has occurred. If the net capitalized costs of oil and gas properties in a cost center
exceed an amount equal to the sum of the present value of estimated future net revenues from proved
oil and gas reserves in the cost center and the costs of properties not being amortized, both
adjusted for income tax effects, such excess is charged to expense.
Other property and equipment
Other property and equipment consists of computer hardware and software, office furniture and
equipment, vehicles, buildings and leasehold improvements, and are depreciated on a straight-line
basis over their estimated useful lives ranging from three to 40 years.
Other assets
Costs incurred in connection with the issuance of long-term debt are capitalized and amortized to
interest expense over the term of the related agreement, using the interest method.
Asset retirement obligations
The fair value of an asset retirement obligation is recognized in the period in which it is
incurred if a reasonable estimate can be made. The Companys asset retirement obligations primarily
relate to the abandonment of oil and gas wells and producing facilities. The following table sets
forth a reconciliation of the beginning and ending asset retirement obligation for the year ended
December 31, 2006 (in thousands):

Income taxes
The Company utilizes the liability method of accounting for income taxes, as set forth in Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Under the
liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on the difference between the financial
statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in
which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are recorded against deferred
tax assets when it is considered more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be
utilized.
Revenue recognition
Oil and gas revenues from producing wells are recognized when title and risk of loss is transferred
to the purchaser of the oil or gas.
F-7
Stock-based compensation
Effective January 1, 2006 the Company adopted SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment
(SFAS 123R), which replaced SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and
superseded Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.
SFAS 123R requires companies to measure the cost of stock-based compensation granted, including
stock options and restricted stock, based on the fair market value of the award as of the grant
date, net of estimated forfeitures. The Company had no stock-based compensation grants prior to
January 1, 2006.
Earnings per common share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number
of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is determined
on the assumption that outstanding stock options and warrants have been converted using the average
price for the period. For purposes of computing earnings per share in a loss period, potential
common shares are excluded from the computation of weighted average common shares outstanding if
their effect is antidilutive. For the year ended December 31, 2006, potential common stock
equivalents of 9,153,812 have been excluded from the calculations because their effect would have
been antidilutive.
Fair value of financial instruments
For cash and cash equivalents, receivables and payables, the carrying amounts approximate fair
value because of the short maturity of these instruments. Long-term debt is variable rate debt and
as such, approximates fair values, as interest rates are variable based on prevailing market rates.
Derivative instruments and hedging activities
The Company accounts for its derivative instruments in accordance with SFAS No. 133, Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended (SFAS 133). SFAS 133 establishes
accounting and reporting standards requiring that all derivative instruments, other than those that
meet the normal purchases and sales exception, be recorded on the balance sheet as either an asset
or liability measured at fair value (which is generally based on information obtained from
independent parties). SFAS 133 also requires that changes in fair value be recognized currently in
earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met. Hedge accounting treatment allows
unrealized gains and losses on cash flow hedges to be deferred in other comprehensive income.
Realized gains and losses from the Companys oil and gas cash flow hedges, including terminated
contracts, are generally recognized in oil and gas production revenues when the forecasted
transaction occurs. Gains and losses from the change in fair value of derivative instruments that
do not qualify for hedge accounting are reported in current period income. If at any time the
likelihood of occurrence of a hedged forecasted transaction ceases to be probable, hedge
accounting under SFAS 133 will cease on a prospective basis and all future changes in the fair
value of the derivative will be recognized directly in earnings. Amounts recorded in other
comprehensive income prior to the change in the likelihood of occurrence of the forecasted
transaction will remain in other comprehensive income until such time as the forecasted transaction
impacts earnings. If it becomes probable that the original forecasted production will not occur,
then the derivative gain or loss would be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income
into earnings immediately. Hedge effectiveness is measured at least quarterly based on the relative
changes in fair value between the derivative contract and the hedged item over time, and any
ineffectiveness is immediately reported in the consolidated statement of operations.
Concentration of credit risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist
principally of temporary cash investments, trade accounts receivable, and derivative instruments.
The Company places its excess cash investments with high quality financial institutions. The
Company extends credit, primarily in the form of uncollateralized oil and gas sales, to various
companies in the oil and gas industry, which results in a concentration of credit risk. The
concentration of credit risk may be affected by changes in economic or other conditions within the
oil and gas industry and may accordingly impact the Companys overall credit risk. However,
management believes that the risk of these unsecured receivables is mitigated by the size,
reputation, and nature of the companies to which the Company extends credit. The Company has not
experienced any losses from its receivables or cash investments, and does not believe that it has
any significant concentration of credit risk.
F-8
The Company sells a portion of its oil and gas to end users through various marketing companies.
For the year ended December 31, 2006, revenues from Source
Partners Marketing & Terminal, L.P. accounted for 96% of its oil and
gas revenues. The percentage is calculated on oil and gas revenues before any effects of price risk
management activities.
New accounting pronouncements
During February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No 159, The
Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (SFAS 159), which permits all
entities to choose, at specified election dates, to measure eligible items at fair value. SFAS 159
permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair
value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value, and thereby mitigate volatility
in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having
to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. The statement also establishes presentation and
disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different
measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. SFAS 159 is effective as of the
beginning of an entitys first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. The Company is
evaluating the impact that this statement will have on its financial statements.
In September, 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Plans
and Other Postretirement Plans (SFAS 158). The statement requires employers to recognize any
overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability
in their financial statements. Unrealized components of net periodic benefit costs are reflected in
other comprehensive income, net of tax. SFAS 158 requires recognition of the funded status and
related disclosures as of the end of the fiscal year ending after December 15, 2006. Adoption of
this statement had no impact on the Companys financial position or results of operations.
In September, 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157). SFAS 157
defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about
fair value measurements. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal
years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is continuing to assess the potential impacts
this statement might have on its consolidated financial statements and related footnotes.
During September, 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff Accounting
Bulletin (SAB) No. 108. This Bulletin provides the Staffs views on the consideration of the
effects of prior year misstatements in quantifying current year misstatements for the purpose of a
materiality assessment. The guidance in SAB No. 108 is effective for financial statements of fiscal
years ending after November 15, 2006. Adoption of this guidance did not materially impact the
Companys financial statements.
In July, 2006, the FASB issued Financial Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in
Income Taxes an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, to clarify certain aspects of
accounting for uncertain tax positions, including issues related to the recognition and measurement
of those tax positions. This interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 2006. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of this
interpretation on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In March, 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No.156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets (SFAS
156), which requires all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities be
initially measured at fair value. SFAS 156 permits, but does not require, the subsequent
measurement of servicing assets and servicing liabilities at fair value. Adoption is required as of
the beginning of the first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. The adoption of SFAS
156 is not expected to have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial position,
results of operations or cash flows.
In
February, 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial
Instruments, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140 (SFAS 155). SFAS 155 clarifies
certain issues relating to embedded derivatives and beneficial interests in securitized financial
assets. The provisions of SFAS 155 are effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued
after fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2006. Adoption of this statement is expected to
have no impact on the Companys financial position or results of operations.

Note 3 Acquisition
In September, 2006, the Company completed the acquisition of certain producing properties in the
Texas Gulf Coast area (the Texas Acquisition). The aggregate consideration was $61,492,000,
comprised of a cash payment of approximately $57,318,000 and the issuance of 1,605,345 shares of
the Companys common stock with a deemed value of $4,174,000, based on a per-share average closing
price of Foothills common stock as reported on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board for the 20
trading days prior to the date of the public announcement of the Texas Acquisition. Subsequent to
December 31, 2006, the Company and the seller reached agreement on certain post-closing
adjustments, resulting in the Companys payment of an additional $91,000 and the issuance of an
additional 85,841 shares of the Companys common stock with a deemed value of $223,000. The amount
of these adjustments is reflected as an accrued liability in the accompanying consolidated balance
sheet.
The Company acquired operated interests in four fields: the Goose Creek Field and Goose Creek East
Field, both in Harris County, Texas, the Cleveland Field, located in Liberty County, Texas, and the
Saratoga Field located in Hardin County, Texas. These interests represented working interests
ranging from 95% to 100% in the four fields, which contained approximately 4,000 gross acres of
leasehold or fee interests. The Texas Acquisition was funded primarily by debt financing (see Note
4) as well as a portion of the proceeds from a $22,500,000 private placement of common stock and
warrants completed concurrently.

To finance a portion of the Texas Acquisition, the Company executed a credit agreement (the Credit
Agreement) with a financial institution (the Lender), whereby the Company may borrow funds under
a credit facility in an amount not to exceed $42,500,000 (the Facility). As of December 31, 2006,
$42,500,000 was outstanding under the Facility.
The Facility will terminate and all amounts borrowed under the Facility will be due and payable on
September 7, 2010. The interest rate on the Facility was initially LIBOR plus 700 basis points, and
was increased by 100 basis points on each of September 22, 2006, October 23, 2006 and November 22,
2006 when the Company did not raise an additional $5,000,000 in equity capital on or before those
dates. The interest rate at December 31, 2006 was 15.4%. The Company is required to make quarterly
interest and principal payments on the Facility equal to the adjusted net cash flow attributable to
the properties acquired in the Texas Acquisition. The Facility is secured by liens and security
interests on substantially all of the assets of the Company, including 100% of the Companys oil
and gas reserves and prohibits any dividends on or redemptions of Foothills capital stock.
The terms of the Facility require the Company to maintain certain covenants. As of December 31,
2006, the Company was in compliance with all of the financial covenants.
The Company issued to an affiliate of the Lender a warrant to purchase 3,000,000 shares of its
common stock for five years at an exercise price of $2.75 per share. In addition, the Company
conveyed to the Lender a 5% overriding royalty interest in all oil and gas leases associated with
the Texas Acquisition, but excluding new exploration projects of other formations on these
properties, to the extent they are distinct from operations included in the Lenders approved plan
of development and the related engineering report for the Texas Acquisition and are funded through
equity capital. The fair values of the warrant and the overriding royalty interest amounted to an
aggregate of $11,426,000. This amount was recorded as debt issue discount, which is being amortized
using the interest method.
Based on the Companys forecasts of adjusted net cash flow attributable to the properties acquired
in the Texas Acquisition, the aggregate maturities of long-term debt for each of the five years
subsequent to December 31, 2006 are

Stock-Based Employee Compensation Plan
The Companys 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the 2006 Plan) enables the Company to provide
equity-based incentives through grants or awards to present and future employees, directors,
consultants and other third party service providers. The Companys Board of Directors reserved a
total of 2,000,000 shares of the Companys common stock for issuance under the 2006 Plan. The
compensation committee of the Board (or the Board in the absence of such a committee), administers
the 2006 Plan. The 2006 Plan authorizes the grant to participants of nonqualified stock options,
incentive stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, performance grants
intended to comply with Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and stock
appreciation rights. Generally, options are granted at prices equal to the fair value of the stock
at the date of grant, expire not later than 10 years from the date of grant, and vest ratably over
a three-year period following the date of grant. From time to time, options with differing terms
have been granted, as approved by the Companys Board of Directors.
The estimated fair value of the options granted during 2006 was calculated using a Black Scholes
Merton option pricing model (Black Scholes). The following schedule reflects the various
assumptions included in this model as it relates to the valuation of options:
|
|
|
|
|
Risk free interest rate |
|
|
4.4 5.0 |
% |
Expected volatility |
|
|

|
|
88 |
% |
Dividend yield |
|
|
0 |
% |
Expected years until exercise |
|
|
0.5 3.0 |
|
The Black Scholes model incorporates assumptions to value stock-based awards. The risk-free rate of
interest for periods within the expected term of the option was based on a zero-coupon U.S.
government instrument over the expected term of the equity instrument. Because Foothills common
stock has limited trading history, expected volatility was based on the historical volatility of a
representative stock with characteristics similar to the Company. The Company has no historical
experience upon which to base estimates of employee option exercise timing (expected term) within
the valuation model, and utilized estimates for the expected term based on criteria required
by SFAS 123R.

Stock-based compensation for the year ended December 31, 2006 totaling $388,000 has been recognized
as a component of general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated financial
statements. The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during the year ended
December 31, 2006 was $0.80. As of December 31, 2006, $1,042,000 of total unrecognized compensation
cost related to stock options is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of
approximately three years.
The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the total
pre-tax intrinsic value (the difference between the closing stock price on the last trading day of
2006 and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of in-the-money options) that would have been
received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on December 31, 2006.
The amount of aggregate intrinsic value will change based on the fair market value of the Companys
stock. As of December 31, 2006, 210,000 shares were available for future grants under the 2006
Plan. No stock options were exercised during the year ended December 31, 2006.

A full valuation allowance was established for net deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty of
realizing these deferred tax assets, based on conditions existing as of December 31, 2006.
As of December 31, 2006, the Company had available, for U.S. federal tax purposes, net operating
loss carryforwards of approximately $10,244,000 expiring in 2020 through 2026.
Note 7 Derivative Instruments and Price Risk Management Activities
The Company has entered into derivative contracts to manage its exposure to commodity price risk.
These derivative contracts, which are placed with a major financial institution that the Company
believes is a minimal credit risk, currently consist only of swaps. The oil prices upon which the
commodity derivative contracts are based reflect various market indices that have a high degree of
historical correlation with actual prices received by the Company for its oil production. Swaps are
designed to fix the price of anticipated sales of future production. The Company entered into the
contracts at the time it acquired certain operated oil and gas property interests as a means to
reduce the future price volatility on its sales of oil production, as well as to achieve a more
predictable cash flow from its oil and gas properties. The Company has designated its price hedging
instruments as cash flow hedges in accordance with SFAS 133. The Company recognizes gains or losses on settlement of its hedging instruments in oil and gas
revenues, and changes in their fair value as a component of other comprehensive income, net of
deferred taxes. The Company recognized pre-tax income of $344,000 in oil and gas revenues for the
year ended December 31, 2006 due to realized settlements of its price hedging contracts. The
Company recorded unrealized gains on cash flow hedging contracts of $1,595,000, net of deferred
taxes of zero, for the year ended December 31, 2006. As of December 31, 2006, the Company
anticipates that $833,000 of unrealized gains, net of deferred taxes of zero, will be reclassified
into earnings in 2007. No cash flow hedges were determined to be
ineffective during 2006. Further details relating to the
Companys hedging activities are as follows:

Note 8 Related Party Transactions
On April 7, 2006, the Company entered into an agreement with Moyes & Co., Inc. (Moyes & Co.) to
identify potential acquisition, development, exploitation and exploration opportunities that fit
with its strategy. Moyes & Co. screens opportunities and performs detailed evaluation of those
opportunities that the Company decides to pursue, and assists with due diligence and negotiations
with respect to such opportunities. Christopher P. Moyes was the beneficial owner of 7.3% of
Foothills common stock as of December 31, 2006, and is a member of the Companys Board of
Directors. Mr. Moyes is a major shareholder and the President of Moyes & Co. Because Moyes & Co. is
being
F-13
compensated for identifying opportunities and assisting the Company in pursuing those
opportunities, the interests of Moyes & Co. are not the same as the Companys interests. Management
is responsible for evaluating any opportunities presented to the Company by Moyes & Co. to
determine if those opportunities are consistent with its business strategy. Mr. Moyes has foregone
his compensation as a director, pursuant to the terms of the agreement with Moyes & Co. dated April
7, 2006. Under the agreement, the Company will pay Moyes & Co. a monthly retainer of $17,500 for a
period of one year and additional fees for services requested that exceed those covered by the
retainer, and reimburse normal business travel and other expenses, in exchange for Moyes & Co.s
services. For the year ended December 31, 2006, billings to the Company by Moyes & Co. amounted to
approximately $331,000 for the monthly retainer and additional services, and $54,000 for business
travel and other expenses. At December 31, 2006, approximately $86,000 of unpaid invoices from
Moyes & Co. was included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the accompanying
consolidated balance sheet, which invoices were subsequently paid.
Pursuant to the Companys business plan with respect to the Anadarko Basin in southwest Oklahoma,
it anticipates acquiring non-exclusive rights, from TeTra Exploration, Inc. (TeTra), to a 3D
seismic survey in Roger Mills County, Oklahoma. TeTra is a company that is owned by John L. Moran,
Foothills President. TeTra has reprocessed the 3D survey and completed preliminary geological and
geophysical interpretations of the survey data. Upon the completion of an agreement with TeTra, the
Company plans to finalize the interpretations, identify drillable prospects, acquire oil and gas
leases over those prospects, and negotiate joint ventures with other companies.
Note 9 Commitments and Contingencies

Property obligations
On January 3, 2006, Foothills California entered into a Farmout and Participation Agreement with
INNEX California, Inc., a subsidiary of INNEX Energy, L.L.C. (INNEX), to acquire, explore and
develop oil and natural gas properties located in the Eel River Basin, the material terms of which
are as follows:
|
|
|
|
Foothills California serves as operator of a joint venture with INNEX, and has the
right to earn an interest in approximately 4,000 existing leasehold acres held by INNEX
in the basin, and to participate as operator with INNEX in oil and gas acquisition,
exploration and development activities within an area of mutual interest consisting of
the entire Eel River Basin. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
The agreement provides for drill-to-earn terms, and consists of three phases. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
In Phase I, Foothills California was obligated to pay 100% of the costs of drilling
two shallow wells, acquiring 1,000 acres of new leases, and certain other activities.
The Company has fulfilled its obligations under Phase I, and will receive an assignment
from INNEX of a 75% working interest (representing an approximate 56.3% net revenue
interest) in the leases held by INNEX in the two drilling units to the deepest depth
drilled in the two Phase I obligation wells. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Foothills California then had the option, but not the obligation, to proceed into
Phase II. It elected to proceed into Phase II, and has paid the costs of conducting a
3D seismic survey covering |
|
F-14
|
|
|
|
approximately 12.7 square miles and will be obligated to pay 100% of the costs of
drilling one additional shallow well. Upon completion of Phase II, the Company will
receive an assignment from INNEX of a 75% working interest (representing an
approximate 56.3% net revenue interest) in the leases held by INNEX in the drilling
unit for the well drilled in Phase II and a 75% working interest (representing an
approximate 59.3% net revenue interest) in all remaining leases held by INNEX to the
deepest depth drilled in the three Phase I and II obligation wells. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Foothills California will then have the option, but not the obligation, to proceed
into Phase III. In Phase III, it will be obligated to pay 100% of the costs of drilling
one deep well. Upon completion of Phase III, the Company will receive an assignment
from INNEX of a 75% working interest (representing an approximate 56.3% net revenue
interest) in the leases held by INNEX in the drilling unit and a 75% working interest
(representing an approximate 59.3% net revenue interest) in all remaining leases held
by INNEX with no depth limitation. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
After completion of Phase III, the two parties will each be responsible for funding
their working interest share of the joint ventures costs and expenses. Foothills
California will generally have a 75% working interest in activities conducted on
specified prospects existing at the time of execution of the agreement, and a 70%
working interest in other activities. Each party will be able to elect not to
participate in exploratory wells on a prospect-by-prospect basis, and a
non-participating party will lose the opportunity to participate in development
activities and all rights to production relating to that prospect. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Foothills California is also entitled to a proportionate assignment from INNEX of
its rights to existing permits, drill pads, roads, rights-of-way, and other
infrastructure, as well as its pipeline access and marketing arrangements. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
INNEX has an option to participate for a 25% working interest in certain producing
property acquisitions by the Company in the area of mutual interest. |

Oil and Gas Reserve Quantities
Proved reserves represent estimated quantities of crude oil and natural gas which geological and
engineering data demonstrate to be reasonably recoverable in the future from known reservoirs under
existing economic and operating conditions. Proved developed reserves can be expected to be
recovered through existing wells, with existing equipment and operating methods.
Estimates of proved and proved developed oil and gas reserves are subject to numerous uncertainties
inherent in the process of developing the estimates, including the estimation of the reserve
quantities and estimated future rates of production and timing of development expenditures. The
accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of the quantity and quality of available data and of
engineering and geological interpretation and judgment. Results of drilling, testing and production
subsequent to the date of the estimate may justify revision of such estimates. Additionally, the
estimated volumes to be commercially recoverable may fluctuate with changes in prices of oil and
natural gas.
Estimates of the Companys proved reserves and related valuations, as shown in the following
tables, were developed pursuant to SFAS No. 69. Crude oil is stated in thousands of barrels.
Natural gas is stated in millions of cubic feet.

During 2006, the Company drilled two successful wells in the Eel River Basin in
California (see Note 9). The estimate of proved reserves attributable to these
discoveries was approximately 23 billion cubic feet of natural gas. |
|
(2) |
|
In 2006, the Company acquired producing properties in the Texas Gulf Coast area (see
Note 3). The estimated proved reserves acquired totaled approximately 4.5 million
barrels of crude oil and 446 million cubic of natural gas. |
The following tables present (in thousands) the standardized measure of discounted future net cash
flows relating to proved oil and gas reserves as of December 31, 2006, and the changes in the
standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows for the year then ended. Future cash
inflows and costs were computed using prices and costs in effect at the end of the year, without
escalation. Future income taxes were computed by applying the appropriate statutory income tax rate
to the pretax future net cash flows, reduced by future tax deductions and net operating loss
carryforwards.

FOOTHILLS RESOURCES, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2007
(unaudited)
Note 1 Summary of Operations
Foothills Resources, Inc. (Foothills), a Nevada corporation, and its subsidiaries are
collectively referred to herein as the Company. The Company is a growth-oriented independent
energy company engaged in the acquisition, exploration, exploitation and development of oil and
natural gas properties. The Company currently holds interests in properties in the Texas Gulf
Coast area, in the Eel River Basin in northern California, and in the Anadarko Basin in southwest
Oklahoma.
The Company took its current form on April 6, 2006, when Brasada California, Inc. (Brasada)
merged with and into an acquisition subsidiary of Foothills. Brasada was formed on December 29,
2005 as Brasada Resources LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and converted to a Delaware
corporation on February 28, 2006. Following the merger, Brasada changed its name to Foothills
California, Inc. (Foothills California) and is now a wholly owned operating subsidiary of
Foothills. This transaction was accounted for as a reverse takeover of the Company by Foothills
California. The Company adopted the assets, management, business operations and business plan of
Foothills California. The financial statements of the Company prior to the merger were eliminated
at consolidation.
These financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit, and include all
adjustments (which consist solely of normal recurring adjustments) which, in the opinion of
management, are necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and results of operations.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted, although
the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not
misleading. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the
Companys audited financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2006.
Note 2 New Accounting Pronouncements
During February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and
Financial Liabilities (SFAS 159), which permits all entities to choose, at specified election
dates, to measure eligible items at fair value. SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure many
financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be
measured at fair value, and thereby mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring
related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting
provisions. The statement also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to
facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar
types of assets and liabilities. SFAS 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entitys first
fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. The Company is evaluating the impact that this
statement will have on its financial statements.
In September, 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit
Plans and Other Postretirement Plans (SFAS 158). The statement requires employers to recognize
any overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or
liability in their financial statements. Unrealized components of net periodic benefit costs are
reflected in other comprehensive income, net of tax. SFAS
F-24
158 requires recognition of the funded status and related disclosures as of the end of the
fiscal year ending after December 15, 2006. Adoption of this statement had no impact on the
Companys financial position or results of operations.
In September, 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157).
SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands
disclosures about fair value measurements. This statement is effective for financial statements
issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is continuing to assess the
potential impacts this statement might have on its consolidated financial statements and related
footnotes.
During September, 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff Accounting
Bulletin (SAB) No. 108. This Bulletin provides the Staffs views on the consideration of the
effects of prior year misstatements in quantifying current year misstatements for the purpose of a
materiality assessment. The guidance in SAB No. 108 is effective for financial statements of
fiscal years ending after November 15, 2006. Adoption of this guidance did not materially impact
the Companys financial statements.
In July 2006, the FASB issued Financial Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in
Income Taxes an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, to clarify certain aspects of
accounting for uncertain tax positions, including issues related to the recognition and measurement
of those tax positions. This interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 2006. Adoption of this statement had no impact on the Companys financial position or results
of operations.
In March 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No.156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets
(SFAS 156), which requires all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities
be initially measured at fair value. SFAS 156 permits, but does not require, the subsequent
measurement of servicing assets and servicing liabilities at fair value. Adoption is required as
of the beginning of the first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. The adoption of
SFAS 156 did not have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial position, results
of operations or cash flows.
In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial
Instruments, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140 (SFAS 155). SFAS 155 clarifies
certain issues relating to embedded derivatives and beneficial interests in securitized financial
assets. The provisions of SFAS 155 are effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued
after fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2006. Adoption of this statement had no impact on
the Companys financial position or results of operations.

To finance a portion of the acquisition of certain producing properties in the Texas Gulf
Coast area (the Texas Acquisition) in 2006, the Company executed a credit agreement (the Credit
Agreement) with a financial institution (the Lender), whereby the Company may borrow funds under
a credit facility in an amount not to exceed $42,500,000 (the Facility). As of March 31, 2007,
$42,500,000 was outstanding under the Facility.
The Facility will terminate and all amounts borrowed under the Facility will be due and
payable on September 7, 2010. The interest rate on the Facility was initially LIBOR plus 700 basis
points, and was increased by 100 basis points on each of September 22, 2006, October 23, 2006 and
November 22, 2006 when the Company did not satisfy a requirement of the credit agreement to raise
an additional $5,000,000 in equity capital on or before those dates. The interest rate at March
31, 2007 was 15.4%. The Company is required to make quarterly interest and principal payments on
the Facility equal to the adjusted net cash flow attributable to the properties acquired in the
Texas Acquisition. The Facility is secured by liens and security interests on substantially all of
the assets of the Company, including 100% of the Companys oil and gas reserves, and prohibits any
dividends on or redemptions of Foothills capital stock.
The terms of the Facility require the Company to maintain certain covenants. As of March 31,
2007, the Company was in compliance with all of the financial covenants.
The Company issued to an affiliate of the Lender a warrant to purchase 3,000,000 shares of its
common stock for five years at an exercise price of $2.75 per share. In addition, the Company
conveyed to the Lender a 5% overriding royalty interest in all oil and gas leases associated with
the Texas Acquisition, but excluding new exploration projects relating to other formations on these
properties, to the extent they are distinct from operations included in the Lenders approved plan
of development and the related engineering report for the Texas Acquisition and are funded through
equity capital. The fair values of the warrant and the overriding royalty interest amounted to an
aggregate of $11,426,000. This amount was recorded as debt issue discount, which is being amortized
using the interest method.
Note 5 Stockholders Equity
Registration rights payments
The purchasers of units consisting of shares of common stock and warrants issued by Foothills
in private placement financings in 2006 have registration rights, pursuant to which the Company
agreed to register for resale the shares of common stock and the shares of common stock issuable
upon exercise of the warrants. In the event that the registration statements are not declared
effective by the SEC by specified dates, the Company is required to pay liquidated damages to the
purchasers.
The purchasers of 17,142,857 units issued in April, 2006 are entitled to liquidated damages in
the amount of 1% per month of the purchase price for each unit, payable each month that the
registration statement is not declared effective following the mandatory effective date (January
28, 2007). The total amount recorded at March 31, 2007 for these liquidated damages was $252,000.
Amounts payable as liquidated damages cease when the shares can be sold under Rule 144 of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Company has determined that liquidated damages ceased on
April 6, 2007 as to a minimum of 16,192,613 units, and expects that liquidated damages will cease
no later than July 6, 2007 as to the remaining units.
F-26
The purchasers of an aggregate of 10,093,804 units issued in September, 2006 are entitled to
liquidated damages in the amount of 1% per month of the purchase price for each unit, payable each
month that the registration statement is not declared effective following the applicable mandatory
effective dates (March 7, 2007 for 10,000,000 units and March 28, 2007 for the remaining 93,804
units). The total amount recorded at March 31, 2007 for these liquidated damages was $188,000. The
investors in the September, 2006 private placement financing have the right to take the liquidated
damages either in cash or in shares of Foothills common stock, at their election. If the Company
fails to pay the cash payment to an investor entitled thereto by the due date, the Company will pay
interest thereon at a rate of 12% per annum (or such lesser maximum amount that is permitted to be
paid by applicable law) to such investor, accruing daily from the date such liquidated damages are
due until such amounts, plus all such interest thereon, are paid in full. The total amount of
liquidated damages will not exceed 10% of the purchase price for the units or $2,271,000.
The Company filed the required registration statement but the registration statement has not
yet become effective. As a result, the Company had incurred the obligation to pay a total of
approximately $440,000 in liquidated damages as of March 31, 2007, which amount has been recorded
as liquidated damages expense in the consolidated statement of operations.
Stock-based employee compensation plan
Foothills 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the 2006 Plan) enables the Company to provide
equity-based incentives through grants or awards to present and future employees, directors,
consultants and other third party service providers. Foothills Board of Directors reserved a total
of 2,000,000 shares of Foothills common stock for issuance under the 2006 Plan. The compensation
committee of the Board (or the Board in the absence of such a committee), administers the 2006
Plan. The 2006 Plan authorizes the grant to participants of nonqualified stock options, incentive
stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, performance grants intended to
comply with Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and stock appreciation rights.
Generally, options are granted at prices equal to the fair value of the stock at the date of grant,
expire not later than 10 years from the date of grant, and vest ratably over a three-year period
following the date of grant. From time to time, options with differing terms have been granted, as
approved by the Board of Directors.
The estimated fair value of the options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2007
was calculated using a Black Scholes Merton option pricing model (Black Scholes). The following
schedule reflects the various assumptions included in this model as it relates to the valuation of
options:
|
|
|
|
|
Risk free interest rate |
|
|
4.9 5.2 |
% |
Expected volatility |
|
|
85 116 |

|
|
88 |
% |
Dividend yield |
|
|
0 |
% |
Expected years until exercise |
|
|
0.5 3.0 |
|
The Black Scholes model incorporates assumptions to value stock-based awards. The risk-free
rate of interest for periods within the expected term of the option was based on a zero-coupon U.S.
government instrument over the expected term of the equity instrument. Because Foothills common
stock has limited trading history, expected volatility was based on the historical volatility of a
representative stock with characteristics similar to the Company. The Company has no historical
experience upon which to base estimates of employee option exercise timing (expected term) within
the valuation model, and utilized estimates for the expected term based on criteria required by
SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123R).
Option activity under the 2006 Plan during the three months ended March 31, 2007 was as
follows:

Stock-based compensation for the three months ended March 31, 2007 totaling $139,000 has been
recognized as a component of general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated
financial statements. The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during the
three months ended March 31, 2007 was $0.46. As of March 31, 2007, $949,000 of total unrecognized
compensation cost related to stock options is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average
period of approximately 2.8 years. The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the
total pre-tax intrinsic value (the difference between the closing stock price on the last trading
day of March 2007 and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of in-the-money options) that
would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on
March 31, 2007. The amount of aggregate intrinsic value will change based on the fair market value
of the Companys stock. As of March 31, 2007, 120,000 shares were available for future grants under
the 2006 Plan. No stock options were exercised during the three months ended March 31, 2007.
Note 6 Derivative Instruments and Price Risk Management Activities
The Company has entered into derivative contracts to manage its exposure to commodity price
risk. These derivative contracts, which are placed with a major financial institution that the
Company believes is a minimal credit risk, currently consist only of swaps. The oil prices upon
which the commodity derivative contracts are based reflect various market indices that have a high
degree of historical correlation with actual prices received by the Company for its oil production.
Swaps are designed to fix the price of anticipated sales of future production. The Company entered
into the contracts at the time it acquired certain operated oil and gas property interests as a
means to reduce the future price volatility on its sales of oil production, as well as to achieve a
more predictable cash flow from its oil and gas properties. The Company has designated its price
hedging instruments as cash flow hedges in accordance with SFAS No. 133. The Company recognizes gains or losses on settlement of its hedging instruments in oil and gas
revenues, and changes in their fair value as a component of other comprehensive income, net of
deferred taxes. The Company recognized pre-tax income of $423,000 in oil and gas revenues for the
three months ended March 31, 2007 due to realized settlements of its price hedging contracts. The
Company recorded unrealized losses on cash flow hedging contracts of $1,041,000, net of deferred
taxes of zero, for the three months ended March 31, 2007. As of March 31, 2007, the Company
anticipates that $458,000 of unrealized gains, net of deferred taxes of zero, will be reclassified
into earnings within the next 12 months. No cash flow hedges were determined to be ineffective
during 2007. Further details relating
to the Companys hedging activities are as follows:

Foothills Resources, Inc.
Notes to Statements of Revenues and Direct Operating Expenses
Note 1 The Properties
The accompanying statements represent the revenues and direct operating expenses attributable to
the net working and revenue interests in four Texas oil and gas properties acquired by Foothills
Resources, Inc. (Foothills or the Company) on September 8, 2006 (the Properties), from TARH
E&P Holdings L.P. (the Seller). Foothills acquired the properties for approximately $61,492,000,
as adjusted, with an effective date of September 1, 2006. The Properties were used by the Seller
for the exploration, development and production of oil and gas, which is the intended continued use
for the acquired assets by the Company. The acquired properties and their related operations will
be included in Foothills consolidated financial statements from the date of closing.
The Company acquired a 100% working interest in the Goose Creek and Goose Creek East Fields in
Harris County, Texas, a 100% working interest in the Saratoga Field in Hardin County, Texas, and a
95% working interest in the Cleveland Field in Liberty County, Texas.
The consideration paid for the Properties consisted of i) the payment of approximately $57,318,000
in cash, and ii) the issuance of 1,605,345 shares of the Companys common stock.
The $57,318,000 cash portion of the purchase price was funded through $42,500,000 in borrowings
under a subordinated, second lien credit facility with affiliates of Goldman, Sachs & Co., cash
proceeds from the sale by the Company of equity in a private offering, and available working
capital.
Note 2 Basis of Presentation
The historical financial statements reflecting the financial position, results of operations and
cash flows required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America are
not presented, since such information is neither readily available on an individual property basis
nor meaningful for the properties acquired because the entire acquisition cost is being assigned to
oil and gas properties. Accordingly the statements of revenues and direct operating expenses are
presented in lieu of the financial statements required under Rule 3-05 of Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) Regulation S-X.
The accompanying statements of revenues and direct operating expenses represent Foothills net
working and revenue interests in the Properties acquired and are presented on the full cost basis
of accounting. Depreciation, depletion and amortization of the capitalized costs of oil and gas
properties; accretion of asset retirement obligations; corporate general and administrative
expenses; interest expense and income; and income taxes have been excluded because the property
interests acquired represent only a portion of a business, and the expenses incurred are not
necessarily indicative of the expenses to be incurred by Foothills.
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States requires use of estimates and assumptions regarding certain types of
revenues and expenses. Such estimates primarily relate to the unsettled transactions and events as
of the date of the financial statements. Actual results may differ from such estimates.
F-31
SUPPLEMENTAL OIL AND GAS INFORMATION
(unaudited)
The following estimates of proved reserve quantities and the related standardized measure of
discounted future net cash flows relate only to the Properties.
Oil and Gas Reserve Quantities
Proved reserves represent estimated quantities of crude oil and natural gas which geological and
engineering data demonstrate to be reasonably recoverable in the future from known reservoirs under
existing economic and operating conditions. Proved developed reserves can be expected to be
recovered through existing wells, with existing equipment and operating methods.
Estimates of proved and proved developed oil and gas reserves are subject to numerous uncertainties
inherent in the process of developing the estimates, including the estimation of the reserve
quantities and estimated future rates of production and timing of development expenditures. The
accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of the quantity and quality of available data and of
engineering and geological interpretation and judgment. Results of drilling, testing and production
subsequent to the date of the estimate may justify revision of such estimates. Additionally, the
estimated volumes to be commercially recoverable may fluctuate with changes in prices of oil and
natural gas.
Disclosures of oil and gas reserves which follow are based on estimates prepared by Foothills
engineers and from information provided by the Seller, in accordance with guidelines established by
the SEC.

The following tables present (in thousands) the standardized measure of discounted future net cash
flows relating to proved oil and gas reserves and the changes in the standardized measure of
discounted future net cash flows. Future cash inflows and costs were computed using prices and
costs in effect at the end of the year, without escalation. Future income taxes were computed by
applying the appropriate statutory income tax rates to the pretax future net cash flows reduced by
future tax deductions, including deductions attributable to Foothills preliminary allocation of
the purchase price of the Properties.

FOOTHILLS RESOURCES, INC.
PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF JUNE 30, 2006
AND FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2006
The accompanying unaudited pro forma combined financial statements (pro forma statements) reflect
(i) the acquisition by Foothills Resources, Inc. (Foothills or the Company) of certain
producing properties in the Texas Gulf Coast area (the TARH Acquisition) from TARH E&P Holdings,
L.P. (TARH), (ii) the concurrent closing of a $22,500,000 private placement of Foothills common
stock and warrants (the Equity Offering) , and (iii) the concurrent closing of a $42,500,000
credit facility (the Credit Facility) (collectively, the Transactions).
The pro forma statements have been prepared from, and should be read in conjunction with, (i) the
Companys unaudited financial statements as of June 30, 2006 and for the six months then ended, and
(ii) the unaudited Statements of Revenues and Direct Operating Expenses of the Acquired Texas Oil
and Gas Properties for the six months ended June 30, 2006. The following unaudited pro forma
combined balance sheet has been prepared as though the Transactions had occurred on June 30, 2006,
and the unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2006
has been prepared as though the Transactions had occurred on January 1, 2006. The pro forma
statements do not necessarily reflect the financial position or results of operations that would
have resulted had the Transactions actually occurred at those dates. In addition, the pro forma
statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended
December 31, 2006, or any other period.
An unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations for the Companys latest fiscal year has
not been presented because the statement would not have provided meaningful information. In
accordance with reverse takeover accounting requirements, the statement would have covered only the
period from December 29, 2005, the date of formation of the Companys predecessor, through December
31, 2005.
The pro forma statements reflect pro forma adjustments that are described in the accompanying notes
and are based on available information and certain assumptions that we believe are reasonable but
are subject to change.

PART II
INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS
Item 24. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Under Nevada law, a corporation shall indemnify a director or officer against expenses, including
attorneys fees, actually and reasonably incurred by him, to the extent the director or officer has
been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding. A
corporation may indemnify a director or officer who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a
party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative, against expenses, including attorneys fees, judgments, fines and
amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him/her in connection with the
action, suit or proceeding. Excepted from that immunity are:
|
|
|
|
a willful failure to deal fairly with the company or its stockholders in connection
with a matter in which the director has a material conflict of interest; |
|
|
|
|
|
|
a violation of criminal law (unless the director had reasonable cause to believe
that his or her conduct was lawful or no reasonable cause to believe that his or her
conduct was unlawful); |
|
|
|
|
|
|
a transaction from which the director derived an improper personal profit; and |
|
|
|
|
|
|
willful misconduct. |
|
Our bylaws include an indemnification provision under which we have the power to indemnify our
directors, officers and former officers and directors (including heirs and personal
representatives) against all costs, charges and expenses actually and reasonably incurred,
including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment to which the director or officer
is made a party by reason of being or having been a director or officer of Foothills or any of our
subsidiaries.
Our bylaws also provide that our directors may cause us to purchase and maintain insurance for the
benefit of a person who is or was serving as a director, officer, employee or agent of Foothills or
any of our subsidiaries (including heirs and personal representatives) against a liability incurred
by him/her as our director, officer, employee or agent.

Item 26. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.
There have been no sales of unregistered securities within the last three years which would be
required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 701 of Regulation S-B, except for the following:
On September 8, 2006, and September 27, 2006, we closed on a private offering of units consisting
of shares of our common stock and warrants to acquire our common stock. Each unit we sold in the
offering consisted of one share of common stock and a warrant to acquire one-half share of common
stock for five years at an exercise price of $2.75 per share. On September 8, 2006, we received
$22,500,000 in proceeds from the offering, through the sale of 10,000,000 units, issuing to
investors in the offering 10,000,000 shares of common stock and warrants to acquire 5,000,017
shares of common stock. On September 27, 2006, we received proceeds of an additional $211,059
through the sale of an additional 93,804 units to additional investors in the offering.
The September, 2006 offering was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act
under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated by the SEC. The
units were offered and sold only to accredited investors, as that term is defined under Rule 501
of Regulation D, some of which were institutional investors, and to fewer than 35 non-accredited
investors, in compliance with Rule 506. Sanders Morris Harris Inc. acted as placement agent in the
private offering and, for its services, received compensation from us of $1,246,306, plus warrants
to acquire 473,233 shares of common stock at $2.25 per share. Sanders Morris Harris Inc. did not
receive compensation for 3,333,333 units sold in the offering to Goldman, Sachs & Co.
Each of the investors in the September, 2006 offering executed a subscription agreement, securities
purchase agreement and registration rights agreement, all dated as of September 8, 2006.
Also on September 8, 2006, we closed Foothills Texas, Inc.s acquisition of properties from TARH
E&P Holdings, L.P. The consideration included the issuance of 1,605,345 shares of common stock to
TARH E&P Holdings, L.P. On May 17, 2007, we issued an additional 85,841 shares of common stock to
TARH E&P Holdings, L.P. as additional consideration for the acquisition pursuant to the Purchase
Agreement. These shares were issued to TARH E&P Holdings, L.P. in private transactions which were
exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act under Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act.
On April 6, 2006, our wholly-owned subsidiary merged with Foothills California, Inc. (formerly
Brasada California, Inc.). On the closing date of that merger, the holders of Foothills California
Inc.s issued and outstanding capital stock before the merger surrendered all of their issued and
outstanding capital stock of Foothills California, Inc. and received 17,375,000 shares of our
common stock. This issuance of shares to the former stockholders of Foothills California, Inc. was
exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act under Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act.
II-3
On the closing date of the merger, and on April 20, 2006, we closed a private offering of an
aggregate of 17,142,857 units consisting of one share of our common stock and warrants to acquire
three-quarters of a share of common stock for five years, at an exercise price of $1.00 per whole
share. In this offering, we received aggregate consideration of $12,000,000. Some of the
consideration for the units sold in this offering was in the form of debentures that we sold prior
to the closing date of the offering to accredited investors. These debentures converted into units
in the offering on a dollar-for-dollar basis upon the closing date of the offering and the merger.

in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually or together, represent a
fundamental change in the information in the registration statement. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the
total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered)
and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range
may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to
Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more
than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the
Calculation of Registration Fee table in the effective registration statement; and Include any additional or
changed material information on the plan of distribution. |
|
(2) |
|
For determining liability under the Securities Act, to treat each post-effective amendment as
a new registration statement of the securities offered, and the offering of the securities at
that time to be the initial bona fide offering. |
(3) |
|
To file a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of the securities that
remain unsold at the end of the offering. |
(4) |
|
For determining liability of the undersigned small business issuer under the Securities Act
to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned small business
issuer undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned small business
issuer pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to
sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser
by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned small business issuer will be
a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such
purchaser: |
|
|
(i) |
|
Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned small business
issuer relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 (§ 230.424 of
this chapter); |
|
|
|
|
(ii) |
|
Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf
of the undersigned small business issuer or used or referred to by the undersigned
small business issuer; |
|
|
|
|
(iii) |
|
The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering
containing material information about the undersigned small business issuer or its
securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned small business issuer; and |
|
|
|
|
(iv) |
|
Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the
undersigned small business issuer to the purchaser. |
|
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the Act) may
be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the small business issuer pursuant
to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the small business issuer has been advised that in the
opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by
the small business issuer of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person
of the small business issuer 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 small business issuer will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has
been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question
whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and
will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
For the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser, each prospectus
filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) (§ 230.424(b) of this chapter) as part of a registration statement
relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than
prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A (§ 230.430A of this chapter), shall be deemed to be
part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after
effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus
that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed
incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the
registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first
use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus
that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such
date of first use.
