On August 12, 2010 Alamo issued Eurasian a further $25,000 note (8%, due November 18, 2012, convertible at $0.50) with 25,000 warrants at $1.00 for five years. It is another small draw on the Eurasian financing (inference, as the filing does not name the facility). It could add to dilution if converted.
On August 4, 2010 Alamo agreed with Allied Energy to take a 50% working interest in the M. Dillon Lease and the Dillon #1 re-entry well in Pleasants County, West Virginia, paying $179,125 in drilling and completion costs. Its interests are 70% (59.08 net revenue interest) before payout and 50% (42.2%) after. It also gets an option to join re-entries of sixteen more Allied wells in West Virginia. This extends the West Virginia program begun in May; the Dillon #1 well was later swapped out (see October 2010).
On July 22, 2010 Alamo issued Eurasian Capital Partners a $175,000 note (8%, due November 18, 2012, convertible at $0.50 per share) with 175,000 warrants at $1.00 for five years. The filing does not name the November 2009 facility, but the terms match it (inference). Conversion or warrant exercise could dilute existing shareholders.
On May 18, 2010 Alamo bought a 50% working interest in the Florence Valentine Lease in Ritchie County, West Virginia from Allied Energy (operator), paying $153,500 in drilling and completion costs for the Valentine #1 re-entry well. Until Allied is paid back ("payout") Alamo holds 70% of the well (59.08 net revenue interest); after payout it drops to 50% (42.2%). This is the company's first West Virginia asset. The same filing shows Alamo dismissed Kelly & Company (in place only since March 17, 2010, no reports issued, no disagreements) and hired Q Accountancy Corporation, the fifth auditor engaged since November 2009 (counting Mendoza Berger and Quintanilla), continuing the auditor-churn thread.
On April 15, 2010, Alamo issued another $250,000 Eurasian note (8%, due November 18, 2012, convertible at $0.50) with 250,000 warrants at $1.00. On April 16 it agreed with WEJCO, Inc. to take participation rights in the Duffer Re-entry Prospect, Hubbard H-1 well in Brown County, Texas, paying $18,050 (20% of $90,250 in geologic, land and seismic costs) plus a share of drilling and completion costs; WEJCO will operate. Eurasian notes announced since February now total $730,000 against the $2,000,000 commitment, counting the $334,905 first instalment.
On March 25, 2010, Alamo issued a further $100,000 Eurasian note (8%, due November 18, 2012, convertible at $0.50) with 100,000 warrants at $1.00. Separately, it dismissed Quintanilla on March 17, 2010 and hired Kelly & Company as auditor, with no disagreements reported and no audit reports issued by Quintanilla. This is the company's third auditor in about two months.

On March 4, 2010, Alamo bought eight units for $303,986 ($37,996 each) in Boardman Energy Partners' Taylor TDS Five Well Program in Adair County, Kentucky; each unit carries a 2.0% working interest and 1.5% net revenue interest, and Boardman operates. It funded activity with another $300,000 Eurasian note (8%, due November 18, 2012, convertible at $0.50) with 300,000 warrants at $1.00. This is the company's first US well interest in these filings.
On February 5, 2010, Alamo borrowed $80,000 from Eurasian Capital Partners through an 8% senior secured convertible note due November 18, 2012, convertible at $0.50 per share, with warrants for 80,000 shares at $1.00 for five years. This appears to be a draw under the up-to-$2,000,000 financing arranged in November 2009 (an inference, as the filing does not name that facility). Conversion or warrant exercise could dilute existing shareholders.
On January 29, 2010, Alamo dismissed Mendoza Berger & Company and engaged Quintanilla Accountancy Corporation as its auditor. The filing says there were no disagreements, and notes the company had earlier dismissed Malone and Bailey effective November 18, 2009. This is another auditor change since the 2008 one.

On January 11, 2010, Alamo signed a letter agreement with Aimwell Energy Limited to take a 90% interest in Aimwell's licence over onshore oil and gas blocks in southern England for one pound sterling, and to become operator, subject to regulatory approvals. Alamo would pay Aimwell's 10% share of operating costs until a field development plan is approved. This is the company's first UK asset in the filings so far, and it is not yet completed.
On November 18, 2009, the former golf-business shell Green Irons completed an asset purchase from Alamo Oil Limited, changed management, entered oil and gas, and took the name Alamo Energy Corp. Alamo Oil received 350,000 shares (about 22% of the 1,622,284 shares then issued). The company also agreed a note and warrant deal with one investor to lend up to $2,000,000 in instalments ($334,905 delivered at closing, convertible at $0.50 per share, with $1.00 warrants), planned a 30-for-1 stock split, and bought back and cancelled 4,616,666 shares from Mr. McDougall for $61,073. The filing describes the company as early stage and says it was negotiating acquisitions with no agreements yet in place.
The company, then named Green Irons Holdings Corp., dismissed its auditor HJ & Associates and hired Malone and Bailey PC on February 8, 2008. The filing says the prior auditor's reports for fiscal 2006 and 2007 carried a going-concern uncertainty qualification, and reports no disagreements with the old auditor.
