FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein contain forward-looking statements.

We discuss many of these risks, uncertainties and other factors in greater detail under the heading “RISK FACTORS” contained in this Prospectus, and in our other periodic reports filed with the SEC, which are incorporated herein by reference, as well as any amendments thereto reflected in subsequent filings with the SEC. Given these risks, uncertainties and other factors, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

This summary highlights information contained elsewhere in, or incorporated by reference into, this Prospectus. As a result, it does not contain all of the information that may be important to you or that you should consider before investing in any of our securities. You should read this Prospectus, including any applicable prospectus supplement, and the documents incorporated by reference into this Prospectus in their entirety.

We are an oil and gas exploration, development and production company. We have oil and gas property interests located in Western Canada (in Berwyn, Medicine River, Joarcam, Red Earth and Swan Hills in Alberta, and Clarke Lake and Inga in British Columbia) and in the United States (in the Piqua region of the State of Kansas and in the Bakken and Three Forks formations in Divide County, North Dakota). Our business focus is to acquire producing and non-producing oil and gas right interests and develop oil and gas properties that we own or in which we have a leasehold interest. We also anticipate pursuing the acquisition of leaseholds and sites within other geographic areas that meet our general investment guidelines and targets. The majority of our operational duties are outsourced to consultants and independent contractors, including for drilling, maintaining and operating our wells, and we maintain a limited in-house employee base.

We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado on November 27, 2000 under the name “SIN Holdings, Inc.” On November 29, 2010, we changed our name to Legend Oil and Gas, Ltd. Our only subsidiary is Legend Canada, which was formed in Alberta, Canada on July 28, 2011, to acquire, own and develop certain oil and gas properties located in Canada. Neither we nor Legend Canada are reporting issuers in any province of Canada.

Our principal offices are located at 1420 5th Avenue, Suite 2200, Seattle, Washington, 98101, USA, and our registered office is located at 36 South 18th Avenue, Suite D, Brighton, Colorado 80601, USA. The registered office of Legend Canada is located at 840 – 6 th Avenue SW, Suite 230, Calgary, Alberta T2P 3E5, Canada. Our Internet website is located at: http://www.legendoilandgas.com. The information included at our corporate website is not intended to comprise a part of this Prospectus.

RISK FACTORS

Our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows can be impacted by a number of factors which could cause our actual results to vary materially from recent results or anticipated future results, including the following:

 

   

our ability to raise adequate working capital;

 

   

success of our development and exploration;

 

   

demand for and pricing of natural gas and crude oil;

 

   

the quantity and accessibility of producing reserves on our properties;

 

   

environmental and other governmental regulations;

 

   

our ability to attract and maintain key management and employees; and

 

   

our ability to efficiently explore, develop and produce sufficient quantities of marketable natural gas or crude oil in a highly competitive and speculative environment while maintaining quality and controlling costs.

In addition, you should be aware that our common stock is currently subject to the SEC regulations for “penny stocks.” A penny stock generally refers to any non-NASDAQ or other exchange listed equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share. The regulations require that prior to any non-exempt buy/sell transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule set forth by the SEC relating to the penny stock market must be delivered to the purchaser of such penny stock. This disclosure must include the amount of commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current price quotations for the common stock. The regulations

 

-4-


Table of Contents

also require that monthly statements be sent to holders of penny stock which disclose recent price information for the penny stock and information of the limited market for penny stocks. These requirements adversely affect the market liquidity of our common stock.

We attempt to advise investors of specific risk applicable to our business in our annual reports on Form 10-K and in other periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which are incorporated by reference in this Prospectus. For a more detailed discussion of the risks you should consider before purchasing any securities of our company, you should carefully consider the specific risks discussed under “Risk Factors” in the applicable prospectus supplement and in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and such prospectus supplement.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We will retain broad discretion over the use of the net proceeds to us from the sale of our securities offered by this Prospectus. Unless we indicate otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, we anticipate that any net proceeds will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes. We will set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement our intended use for the net proceeds received from the sale of securities sold pursuant to that prospectus supplement.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We may sell the securities covered by this Prospectus, from time to time, in any one or more of the following methods, which we will describe in the applicable prospectus supplement:

 

   

to or through one or more underwriters or dealers;

 

   

directly to purchasers, or to purchasers through agents; or

 

   

through a combination of any of these methods of sale.

The prices at which we sell the securities offered hereby may be:

 

   

at a fixed price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale;

 

   

at market prices prevailing at the times of sale;

 

   

at prices related to such prevailing market prices; or

 

   

at negotiated prices.

The prospectus supplement used for any offering and sale of securities contemplated hereunder will include the following information:

 

   

the terms of the offering;

 

   

the names of any underwriters or agents, including any managing underwriter or underwriters;

 

   

the purchase price of the securities;

 

   

the net proceeds to us from the sale of the securities;

 

   

any delayed delivery arrangements;

 

   

any underwriting discounts, commissions and other items constituting underwriters’ compensation;

 

   

any initial public offering price;

 

   

any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers; and

 

   

any commissions paid to agents.

We may determine the price or other terms of the securities offered under this Prospectus by use of an electronic auction. We will describe how any auction will determine the price or any other terms, how potential investors may participate in the auction and the nature of the obligations of the underwriter, dealer or agent in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Table of Contents

Underwriters, dealers or agents may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from us or our purchasers (as their agents in connection with the sale of the securities). In addition, underwriters may sell securities to or through dealers, and those dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriters or commissions from the purchasers for whom they act as agent. These underwriters, dealers or agents may be considered to be underwriters under the Securities Act. As a result, discounts, commissions, or profits on resale received by the underwriters, dealers or agents may be treated as underwriting discounts and commissions. Each applicable prospectus supplement will identify any such underwriter, dealer or agent, and describe any compensation received by them from us. Any initial public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or re-allowed or paid to dealers may be changed from time to time.

We may enter into agreements that provide for indemnification against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or for contribution with respect to payments made by the underwriters, dealers or agents and to reimburse these persons for certain expenses.

We may grant underwriters who participate in the distribution of the securities an option to purchase additional securities to cover over-allotments, if any, in connection with the distribution. Underwriters or agents and their associates may be customers of, engage in transactions with, or perform services for us in the ordinary course of business.

In connection with the offering of the securities, certain underwriters and selling group members and their respective affiliates, may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the securities. These transactions may include stabilization transactions effected in accordance with Rule 104 of Regulation M promulgated by the SEC pursuant to which these persons may bid for or purchase securities for the purpose of stabilizing its market price.

Underwriters in an offering may engage in overallotment, stabilizing transactions, short covering transactions and penalty bids in accordance with rules and regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Overallotment involves sales in excess of the offering size, which create a short position. Stabilizing transactions permit bids to purchase the underlying security so long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specified maximum. Short covering transactions involve purchases of the securities in the open market after the distribution is completed to cover short positions. Penalty bids permit the underwriters to reclaim a selling concession from a dealer when the securities originally sold by the dealer are purchased in a covering transaction to cover short positions. Those activities may cause the price of the securities to be higher than it would otherwise be. If commenced, the underwriters may discontinue any of these activities at any time.

In compliance with guidelines of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), the maximum consideration or discount to be received by any FINRA member or independent broker dealer may not exceed 8% of the aggregate amount of the securities offered pursuant to this Prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement.

Table of Contents

Common Stock

Holders of common stock are entitled to receive notice of and to attend and vote at all meetings of our shareholders, except meetings of holders of another class of shares. Each share of common stock entitles the holder thereof to one vote. Cumulative voting is not permitted in the election of directors.

Subject to the preferences accorded to holders of preferred stock, including the Convertible Preferred Shares and any other securities ranking senior to the common stock, holders of common stock are entitled to dividends if, as and when declared by the Board of Directors.

In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of common stock, subject to the preferences accorded to holders of preferred stock, including Convertible Preferred Shares and any other shares ranking senior to the common stock, are entitled to share equally, share for share, any of our remaining assets.

Holders of common stock do not have any preemptive rights to subscribe for or to purchase any of our shares, obligations or other securities.

The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is Corporate Stock Transfer, Inc., 3200 Cherry Creek Drive South, Suite 430, Denver, CO 80209, Office: 303.282.4800, Fax: 303.282.5800  www.corporatestock.com.

Convertible Preferred Shares

Our board of directors has designed 2,300,000 Convertible Preferred Shares, all of which are issued and outstanding. The Convertible Preferred Shares are entitled to dividends as if they were shares of common stock in the event our board of directors declares and pays any dividends on our common stock. The Convertible Preferred Shares will not be entitled to any other dividends. Upon our corporate liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of Convertible Preferred Shares are entitled to receive a pro rata share of all of our assets that are available for distribution prior to any distribution to holders of common stock. The holders of Convertible Preferred Shares are entitled to one vote per share held on all matters submitted to a vote of the shareholders. Cumulative voting is not permitted in the election of directors.

Holders of the Convertible Preferred Shares have rights to convert the Convertible Preferred Shares into common stock. Each Convertible Preferred Share outstanding may, at any time at the option of the holder, be converted into one fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock. At any time that the shares of common stock are changed into a different number of shares of any class or classes of our capital stock, whether by recapitalization, combination, consolidation, reclassification or otherwise in any such event the holders of Convertible Preferred Shares shall have the same conversion rights with respect to the reclassified securities as they had with respect to the shares of common stock, and the conversion formula will be adjusted equitably.

Each holder of the Convertible Preferred Shares has a “put” option to require us to redeem any or all of the Convertible Preferred Shares held by such holder if our common stock is not listed for trading or otherwise quoted on the NYSE, Amex, NASDAQ, or any other stock market more senior than the OTCBB on or before March 31, 2012. The redemption price is $2.00 per share payable in cash. This right may be waived by the holders of the Convertible Preferred Shares.

Holders of Convertible Preferred Shares do not have any preemptive rights to subscribe for or to purchase any of our shares, obligations or other securities.

Blank Check Preferred Stock

The following description of preferred stock and the description of the terms of any particular series of preferred stock that we choose to offer and sell pursuant to this Prospectus and that will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement are not complete. These descriptions are qualified in their entirety by reference to the certificate of designation relating to that series. The rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of the preferred stock of each series will be fixed by the certificate of designation relating to that series.

 

-7-


Table of Contents

Our board of directors has the authority, without further vote or action by the shareholders, within the limitations and restrictions in our articles of incorporation, to issue preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions thereof, including the following:

 

   

the number of shares constituting that series;

 

   

dividend rights and rates;

 

   

voting rights;

 

   

conversion terms;

 

   

rights and terms of redemption (including redemption prices and sinking fund provisions); and

 

   

liquidation preferences and other rights of the series in the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up.

All shares of preferred stock offered hereby will, when issued, be fully paid and nonassessable and will not have any preemptive or similar rights. Our board of directors could authorize the issuance of shares of preferred stock with terms and conditions that could have the effect of discouraging a takeover or other transaction that might involve a premium price for holders of the shares or which holders might believe to be in their best interests. The issuance of preferred stock may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in our control without further action by the shareholders, and enable the board of directors to render more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of our company by means of a tender offer, proxy contest, merger or otherwise, and thereby to protect the continuity of our management.

The issuance of preferred stock with voting and conversion rights may adversely affect the voting power of holders of common stock, including as to dividend rights, liquidation preferences, and voting rights, and the preferred stock may be convertible into shares of common stock. As a result, the issuance of preferred stock, or the issuance of rights to purchase preferred stock, may discourage an unsolicited acquisition proposal or bids for our common stock or may otherwise adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

We will set forth in a prospectus supplement relating to the series of preferred stock being offered the following items:

 

   

the title and stated value of the preferred stock;

 

   

the number of shares of the preferred stock offered, the liquidation preference per share and the offering price of the preferred stock;

 

   

the dividend rate(s), period(s) and payment date(s) or method(s) of calculation applicable to the preferred stock;

 

   

whether dividends are cumulative or non-cumulative and, if cumulative, the date from which dividends on the preferred stock will accumulate;

 

   

the procedures for any auction and remarketing, if any, for the preferred stock;

 

   

the provisions for a sinking fund, if any, for the preferred stock;

 

   

the provision for redemption, if applicable, of the preferred stock;

 

   

any listing of the preferred stock on any securities exchange;

 

   

the terms and conditions, if applicable, upon which the preferred stock will be convertible into common stock, including the conversion price (or manner of calculation) and conversion period;

 

   

voting rights, if any, of the preferred stock;

 

   

a discussion of any material or special United States federal income tax considerations applicable to the preferred stock;

 

   

the relative ranking and preferences of the preferred stock as to dividend rights and rights upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our affairs;

 

   

any limitations on issuance of any class or series of preferred stock ranking senior to or on a parity with the class or series of preferred stock as to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our affairs; and

 

   

any other specific terms, preferences, rights, limitations or restrictions of the preferred stock.

The transfer agent and registrar for any series of preferred stock will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Table of Contents

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

We are incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado. Our articles of incorporation limit the personal liability of our directors to the fullest extent permitted by Colorado law. Under Colorado law, a corporation may include in its articles of incorporation a provision that eliminates or limits the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its shareholders for damages for (i) any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or to its shareholders; (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of the law; (iii) acts specified in Section 7-108-403 of the Colorado Business Corporation Act (CBCA); or (iv) any transaction from which the director directly or indirectly derived any improper personal benefit. If the CBCA is amended to eliminate or limit further the liability of a director, then, in addition to the elimination and limitation of liability provided by the foregoing, the liability of each director may be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted under the provisions of the Colorado Business Corporation Act as so amended. But no such provision may eliminate or limit the liability of a director (a) in connection with a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation in which the director was adjudged liable to the corporation, or (b) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit (see Section 7-109-102(4) of the CBCA).

Our bylaws also include indemnification provisions under which we have the power to indemnify our directors, officers, former directors and officers, employees and other agents (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 a director or officer is made a party by reason of being or having been a director or officer of our company. Our bylaws further provide for the advancement of expenses incurred in connection with a proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay such amounts if it is determined that the party is not entitled to be indemnified under our bylaws. These indemnification rights are contractual, and as such will continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or other agent, and will inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

Table of Contents

We have a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy in place pursuant to which our directors and officers are insured against certain liabilities, including certain liabilities under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.

SEC Position on Indemnification for Securities Act Liabilities

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.

WHERE YOU CAN FIND MORE INFORMATION

We are subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and its rules and regulations. The Exchange Act requires us to file reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC. Copies of these reports, proxy statements and other information can be read and copied at the SEC Public Reference Room, 100 F Street NE, Washington, D.C. 20549.

Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling the SEC at 1–800–SEC–0330. The SEC also maintains a website that contains reports, proxy statements and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC. These materials may be obtained electronically by accessing the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov.

We make available, free of charge on our website at www.legendoilandgas.com , copies of our filings with the SEC, including our annual report on Form 10–K, quarterly reports on Form 10–Q, proxy statements, and current reports on Form 8–K as well as amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, together with Section 16 insider beneficial stock ownership reports, as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically file these documents with, or furnish them to, the SEC.
