Platina Energy Group Inc. (OTCBB: PLTG) is an independent exploration and production company with multiple oil and gas lease properties in North America and a proprietary enhanced recovery technology. Headquartered in Dallas, Texas, the Company owns net proven reserves of 2.9 million barrels of oil and 21.6 thousand million cubic feet (MMCF) of natural gas. PLTG operates as a publicly traded company with several wholly owned subsidiaries. The Company’s strategy is to minimize risk by owning a diversified portfolio of energy sector subsidiaries, including Appalachian Energy Corp., Wildcat Energy Corp., and Platina Exploration. The Company’s subsidiaries own oil and gas leases in Hawkins County, Tennessee, in Young County, Texas, in Rusty Creek, Wyoming, in Seminole County, Oklahoma, and in Laurel and Whitley Counties, Kentucky. PLTG also holds rights to a proprietary technology, the Thermal Pulse Unit (TPU), designed for cost-effective and eco-friendly oil well stimulation and enhanced oil recovery. On October 2007, in order to coordinate private equity raising activities, the Company formed Applegate Petroleum Management LLC. In line with the Company’s strategy to grow both organically and inorganically, on March 31, 2008, PLTG acquired Enhanced Oil Recovery Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Utek Corp. Oil Recovery Technology currently has two TPU units deployed and operating successfully in the field. An independent geologist report on the Company’s Appalachian Basin property states that proven reserves have a present value discounted over 10 years, exceeding $62 million. PLTG has established

production at increasing levels from its Young County, Texas, property. The Company’s production estimate for its Kentucky properties during the month of July was 550 BOE per month with an approximate value of $75,000 per week.

Investment Highlights Inorganic growth strategy to boost growth PLTG is aggressively acquiring drilling properties and related energy assets. The Company formed Wildcat Energy Corp. in January 2008, with plans of acquiring more acreage across Kentucky. Wildcat has already acquired more than 4,700 acres under various arrangements, with a potential of 70 oil/gas well locations. Ten wells have already been drilled, four of which are fully completed and are producing oil and gas on a daily basis. These wells have already posted robust revenues for the Company. PLTG’s past acquisitions, such as Appalachian Energy Corporation in Tennessee, consist of approximately 50 well sites in the Devonian Shale formation. Studies indicate proven reserves worth more than $60 million in these wells. The Rusty Basin prospect is about 1,600 acres with more than 10 well locations identified. According to third-party reports, the Company has acquired proven producing and non-producing reserves estimated to be worth more than $300 million. Technology acquisition complements production business PLTG is focused on enhancing oil and gas recovery using cost-effective methods. In April 2008, the Company acquired Enhanced Oil Recovery Technology from Utek Corp. The acquisition gives the Company an exclusive worldwide license for a patented technology that uses an electrical submersible pump and a jet pump to separate liquid and gas streams. This allows oil wells with a high gas content to recover the gas versus burning it off. Through its Oil Recovery Technologies subsidiary, the Company purchased rights to a technology used for paraffin build-up reduction and oil recovery. The Thermal Pulse Unit (TPU) provides a significantly lowered cost basis per barrel for recovery of heavy oil and avoids the problems associated with CO2 flooding, steam or dangerous open flame heating of oil on the surface. PLTG plans to deploy TPU technology and the recently acquired combination technology in its own fields to enhance production and reduce the production decline curve. It is also exploring potential joint ventures to commercialize these technologies. Increasing energy demand creates opportunities for developing leased properties and unexplored areas Industrial and technological developments have increased the demand for energy resources, including oil and gas. According to the Energy Information Administration, average U.S. oil consumption is projected to reach nearly 26.1 million barrels per day by 2025. However, most existing oil fields are mature, and production from these fields is declining. Hence, there is an urgent need for exploration and development of new properties and work-over of existing wells. PLTG is leveraging its resources by bringing various small energy companies together under one umbrella, with each business run by a local management team compensated on a performance basis.

Soaring energy prices to support growth prospects The Company has valued its reserves on a very conservative energy prices base of $70 per barrel oil and $6 per MVF natural gas. Accordingly, the Company believes it can exceed its current revenue forecasts. Also, as production increases and cash flow becomes more predictable, the Company plans to use sophisticated hedge strategies to generate higher profits.

Oil & Gas Industry Outlook The global oil and gas industry generated revenues exceeding $4.3 trillion in 2007 and has produced 17.7% annual growth since 2003. Exploration and production represents about 40% of this market. Increasing global energy demand The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) estimated global oil consumption in 2007 at 85.8 million barrels per day. In the first six months of 2008, global consumption surged by 370,000 barrels per day from year-ago levels.

Domestic natural gas consumption, on the other hand, is forecast to rise 2.7% this year and 2.2% in 2009. This growth will come from the residential and commercial sectors in 2008 and the electric power sector in 2009. Despite higher prices in the first half of 2008, natural gas consumption by the industrial sector rose 3.7% year-overyear. Consumption by the industrial sector is forecast to rise 1.6% in 2008 and 1.4% in 2009 while consumption for electricity generation is predicted to increase 4.6% in 2009. Dependence on oil imports While U.S. oil consumption has risen, production has lagged, resulting in an increased dependence on oil imports. U.S. oil production declined from 5.8 million barrels per day in 2000 to 5.1 million barrels per day in 2007. In contrast, domestic consumption increased to 20.7 million barrels per day from 19.7 million barrels per day over the same period.

To fill the large supply/demand gap, the U.S. relies heavily on oil imports from the Gulf countries. In 2007, the U.S. imported 4.9 million barrels of oil and 4.6 million cubic feet of natural gas. Any major new oil and gas discoveries in the U.S. would be readily absorbed by the domestic market. Supply/demand imbalance fuels price hikes Crude oil prices are determined by global supply and demand. Recent price hikes are the result of consumption growth in emerging markets such as China and India and a reduced supply outlook for non-OPEC countries. Supply disruptions and geopolitical tensions in countries such as Venezuela, Iraq, Iran and Nigeria are contributing to price volatility.

Crude oil prices have increased sharply in 2008, surging from around $70 in 2007 to $100 per barrel in early 2008 to $140 per barrel in June. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil prices, which averaged $72 per barrel in 2007, are now projected to average $115 per barrel in 2008 and $126 per barrel in 2009. The overall outlook suggests rising demand, tightening supplies and steadily higher oil and gas prices. High prices encourage new exploration activity in the U.S. Soaring oil prices are prompting new domestic exploration and re-development of existing wells across the United States. Exhibit 8 below shows a steady increase in the number of gas and oil rigs working in the U.S. and increased domestic drilling activity.

Subsidiaries Oil Recovery Technologies Oil Recovery Technologies is a wholly owned subsidiary which has acquired certain marketing rights to a proprietary technology, the Thermal Pulse Unit (TPU) enhanced oil and gas recovery technology. TPU enables enhanced recovery of heavy oil at a fraction of the cost of the current state-of-the-art technology. Two units are deployed with positive results, working different types of tertiary recovery. This German-inspired technology offers a cost-effective and eco-friendly solution for oil recovery and paraffin buildup reduction. TPU utilizes pressurized nitrogen, which is highly effective in restoring formation pressure and improving oil displacement and fluid flow, particularly in wells blocked by paraffin. TPU creates 350F+ heat and 1500+psi pressures for well cleanup, stimulation and production using hydraulically-driven compressor technology. The Company is exploring opportunities to form joint ventures for TPU, with potential partners specializing in extraction technologies. Appalachian Energy Corporation In January, 2007, the Company acquired oil and gas leases to 55 drilling locations on approximately 1,600 acres in the Devonian Black Shale formation located in the Appalachian Basin of East Tennessee and formed a wholly owned subsidiary, Appalachian Energy Corporation. An independent report estimates the current discounted value of proved reserve associated with this property to be more than $60 million. According to third-party forecasts, a 40-50 well program is likely to cost between $12 million and $15 million, and may generate gross production at current prices of $35,000-$42,000 per month per well. Pipeline access and ample compressor capacity are readily available. Wildcat Energy Corp On January 10, 2008, the Company formed Wildcat Energy Corp., which is managed by its CEO and president, Joel Patton. It is headquartered in London, Kentucky. Wildcat has acquired leases located in Laurel and Whitley counties of Kentucky. The Whitley County acreage consists of approximately 1,200 acres and has five wells, of which two produce natural gas. The Laurel County field has acreage of 2,700 acres, with 70 potential well locations and 10 wells drilled successfully. Of these drilled wells, four are fully completed and producing oil and gas. The Clinton County Field consists of 830 leased acres with one shut in gas well. The Company is conducting engineering studies at this site. Platina Exploration Corp. In June 2007, PLTG formed Platina Exploration Corp., which has its headquarters in Dallas, Texas. Platina Exploration has acquired producing interests on multiple leases in Seminole County, Oklahoma, and prospects in Young County, Texas. Through a joint venture with Buccaneer Energy, Platina Exploration has spent more than $500,000 evaluating the potential acquisition of a producing asset with behind the pipe reserves. Young County, Texas The Young County, Texas prospect consists of 325 acres. This property has 20 wells with rework potential. During 2008, the Company drilled three additional wells on the property and identified 120 additional well locations. PLTG plans to expand its operations on this property on a well-by-well basis.

The Palo Duro Basin In February 2007, the Company acquired oil and gas lease options on a prospect consisting of more than 722 acres in Texas. According to a Morgan Stanley report and a major trade journal, potential gas recovery associated with the Palo Duro Basin could exceed the prolific Barnett Shale discovery. Platina management believes that the Palo Duro Shale could be one of the largest natural gas deposits in North America. Platina has yet to drill wells on this property. Rusty Creek, Wyoming The Company acquired an oil lease in Wyoming encompassing 1,860 acres. The producing well yielded 1,500 barrels of oil per day for the first 90 days of 1997. However, the last 10 years have witnessed a steep decline in productivity, with yields falling to only 300 barrels per month. There are 20 additional drilling sites on the property, for which the Company is evaluating participation. Exhibit 12: Company’s Developed, Undeveloped and Total Acreage Program

Develop existing properties The Company intends to create near-term reserve and production growth from a number of drilling locations identified at existing acreage. PLTG plans to abstain from exploratory wells and focus instead on drilling wells at already established fields. The execution of management’s strategy is subject to availability of funds. Pursue attractive acquisitions and joint ventures The Company plans to continue to acquire companies it believes can provide competitive advantages and intends to pursue industry joint venture partners. Cost reduction through economies of scale and efficient operations Management expects the Company’s unit cost of production to decline as PLTG develops and expands production from its existing properties. Unit costs will be reduced by utilizing the existing infrastructure over a larger number of wells. PLTG plans to carefully control costs and the timing of its exploration, development and production activities. It will also form joint venture to cut costs. Platina Energy Group, Inc. ( OTCBB:PLGT)

Analyst: Lisa Springer, CFA Initial Report October 15th, 2008

Use of cost-effective enhancement technology The Company also plans to market its TPU-enhanced recovery technology to oil and gas property operators as well as owners/leaseholders of stripper wells. PLTG plans to deploy TPUs in its own fields to enhance production and reduce the production decline curve. It is also involved in discussions with other well operators regarding potential on-site installations of trial TPUs. The Company also has rights to inline electrical submersible pump and jet pumps. Electrical submersible pumps (ESP) are often used to extract oil from onshore and offshore deep wells. PLTG acquired the rights to this technology after it acquired Utek Corp. on March 31, 2008. The advantages of this technology include costs reductions, reduction in power consumption, increased production, improved efficiencies and improved safety. Management believes this technology will enable the Company to expand its area of operations in terms of profitable recovery of oil and gas from wells, i.e. deep and/or high gas-to-liquid wells. The Company has created a template for producing TPUs; components will be manufactured by several suppliers and then assembled by PLTG at a central location. With this system in place, PLTG is expected to produce two TPU units per day.

Competitive Analysis PLTG competes with other independent exploration and production companies for acquisitions, financing and other resources. Some of its domestic competitors are described below. Aurora Oil and Gas Corporation Aurora Oil and Gas Corp. is an independent energy company engaged in the exploration, exploitation and development of unconventional natural gas reserves. The company has project areas in the Antrim Shale of Michigan and New Albany Shale of southern Indiana and western Kentucky. The company focuses on shale plays where large acreage blocks can be easily evaluated through a series of low-cost test wells. These shale plays are associated with relatively low drilling costs compared to conventional exploration and development plays. The Company had proved reserves of approximately 166.6 billion cubic feet of natural gas at year-end 2007 Panhandle Oil and Gas Inc. Panhandle Oil and Gas Inc. (formerly Panhandle Royalty Company) acquires and manages fee mineral acreage and explores and develops oil and gas properties. It has mineral property reserves and other oil and gas interests located in Oklahoma, New Mexico and Texas. The company does not operate any wells, rather it receives production from several thousand small wells. As of September 30, 2007, the company’s principal properties included 254,692 net mineral acres in Oklahoma, New Mexico, Texas and nine other states. The Meridian Resource Corporation (TMR) The Meridian Resource Corporation, founded in 1985 and incorporated in 1990, locates, develops and produces oil and natural gas. It uses 3-D seismic technology to locate reserves. The company owns interest in reserves located in South Louisiana, the Texas Gulf Coast and the Gulf of Mexico. As of December 31, 2007, the company owned interests in leases covering approximately 363,000 gross acres.

Financial Analysis Financial record For the quarter ended June 2008, PLTG reported revenues of $0.05 million, which was equal to almost half of fullyear FY2007 annual revenues. Significant quarter-over-quarter revenue growth is anticipated in the second half of 2008 and into 2009 as production gains are realized from the Company’s Kentucky projects. In the month of July alone, oil and gas revenues from Kentucky production activities exceeded all of the Company’s production revenues from the prior quarter. Operating expenses during the June quarter were higher at $2.0 million and were up four-fold year-over-year. Most of the increase was due to non-cash, stock-based compensation which caused general and administrative expenses to rise substantially. Operating and net losses totaled approximately $2.0 million and $6.0 million, respectively, for the quarter ended June 2008.

Liquidity and capital requirements As of June 30, 2008, the Company has total assets of $11.7 million and a working capital deficit of $3.4 million. Spending on development activities is budgeted at approximately $25 million over the next 12-to-18 months. PLTG’s ability to implement its drill plan and acquire additional leaseholds will depend on securing additional funding and/or forming joint ventures with other oil and gas operators. The Company plans to pursue debt financing to fund its 2008/2009 business plan. Exhibit 16: Selected financial data from balance sheet

Revenue outlook In the fiscal year ending April 2009, we expect PLTG’s revenues from oil and gas sales to exceed $2.5 million. We assume a sales mix of 50/50 oil and gas, $90 per barrel oil prices and $7 per MCF gas prices. At $2.5 million in revenues, we expect the Company to produce 60% gross margins. We estimate general and adminstrative spending will range around $50,000 per month (excluding debt service) and anticipate the Company will reach operating breakeven in FY2009. However, we think PLTG is likely several quarters away from recording net profits due to greatly increased development spending in FY2009. The Company already has proved reserves valued to exceed $60 million, many promising drilling prospects and a low-risk development stratgy, so we expect PLTG to rapidly ramp up production in FY2010 and FY2011, resulting in exponential growth in oil and gas revenues over the next three years. We predict oil and gas revenues will rise ten-fold in FY2010 to approximatley $25 million, double again in FY20100 to around $50 million in FY2011, and jump 50% in FY2012 to approximately $75 million. We also expect gross profits to rise faster than sales as economies of scale are realized on volume growth. Rising gross profits will drive growth in cash flow and enable PLTG to self-fund its development program, commercialize its TPU and ESP-jet pump technologies, and acquire additional leaseholds and reserves.

If these technologies prove valuable for large scale drilling projects in the fileld, PLTG is likely to attract many interested licensees and negotiate technology licensing arrangements potentially worth millions of additional dollars. Valuation analysis Forward Price/Sales multiples for PLTG’s peer group of domestic, independent exploration and development companies recently averaged around 2.7 times revenues. The peer companies also trade at 8.1 times forward Price/Earnings multiples.

We think PLTG shares warrant a valuation comparable to its oil and gas industry peers. Although PLTG may be considered somewhat higher risk due to its early development stage and need for additional financing, we think the Company’s proprietary technologies will give PLTG a meaningful competitive advantage positioning the Company for superior long-term growth. We discount our $25 million FY2010 revenue estimate, then multiply the resulting amount by a 2.7 times forward Price/Sales multiple to derive our $0.30 price target. As a result, we are initiating coverage of Platina Energy Group with a Speculative Buy rating and a $0.30 price target. Achieving its production goals and/or successfully commercializing its production enhancement technologies would position PLTG for sustainable, long-term revenues and EBITDA growth. However, the Company must overcome many obstacles to achieve these goals; some of PLTG’s risk factors are described in the next section.

Risk Factors Declining energy prices and competing technologies The Company is exposed to risks associated with declines in oil and natural gas prices as well as technology risk. The possibility exists that a competitor may introduce superior production enhancement technologies that would reduce demand for TPU technology ESP- jet pump technology. Long lead times for developing reserves increase risk Developing oil and gas reserves often involves long lead times, significant expenditures and many uncertainties. Natural occurrences such as water flooding could cause production costs to be substantially higher than estimated. New environmental laws or other legislation could make developing the Company’s energy reserves cost-prohibitive. Investment risk The Company must make significant investments to develop its oil and gas reserves. Although independent reports suggest PLTG has significant proved reserves, there is no guarantee that these estimated are accurate or that production can be developed in a timely and/or economic manner. Production from wells naturally declines over time and the Company will be required to make ongoing investments in new properties and resources to maintain its production profile. Competition for resources PLTG must compete with other exploration and production companies for property acquisitions, drilling resources and development capital. Some of these competitors have significantly greater reserves and much better access to capital. If prices for oil and gas leaseholds continue to rise, PLTG may find it more difficult to fund property acquisitions.
