This registration statement covers the common stock issuable upon grants of stock or upon the exercise of options granted pursuant to Doral Energy Corp.s (the Company) 2009 Stock Incentive Plan to directors, officers, employees and eligible consultants of the Company. This registration statement also covers an indeterminable number of additional shares of common stock which may become issuable under the 2009 Stock Incentive Plan by reason of any stock dividend, stock split, re-capitalization or any other similar transaction which may be effected without the receipt of consideration which results in an increase in the number of the registrants outstanding shares of common stock. |
(2) |
The Proposed Maximum Offering Price Per Share is estimated pursuant to Rule 457 of the Securities Act of 1933 (the Securities Act) based upon the average of the closing bid price of $2.90 and closing ask price of $3.05 per share for the Companys common stock as quoted on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board on May 21, 2009. The Proposed Maximum Aggregate Offering Price is estimated based on the Proposed Maximum Offering Price Per Share multiplied by the total number of shares of common stock to be registered. These amounts are calculated solely for the purpose of calculating the amount of the registration fee pursuant to Rule 457 of the Securities Act. |

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Liabilities of Directors and Officers
Subsection 78.158(7) of the Nevada Revised Statutes (the "NRS") provides that, unless the Company's articles of incorporation provide for greater individual liability, a director or officer is not liable to the Company or the Company's stockholders or creditors for any damages arising as a result of any act or failure to act in his or her capacity as a director or officer unless it is proven that:
(1) |
the director or officer's act or failure to act constituted a breach of his fiduciary duties as a director or officer; and | |
(2) |
the director or officer's breach of these duties involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the law. |
The Company's articles of incorporation do not contain any provision for greater liability for the Company's directors and officers.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers
The Company's bylaws provide that the Company will indemnify its directors and officers to the full extent allows by Nevada law. Under the Company's bylaws, the Company may (but is not required to) refuse to indemnify a director or officer for a proceeding initiated by that director or officer unless (i) indemnification is expressly required by law, (ii) the proceeding in question was authorized by the Company's board of directors, (iii) indemnification is provided by the Company in its sole discretion pursuant to powers granted to the Company under Nevada law, or (iv) indemnification is otherwise required to be provided under the Company's bylaws.
Section 78.7502 of the NRS provides for both mandatory and discretionary indemnification of the Company's directors and officers as follows:
Actions Successfully Defended
Subsection 78.7502(3) of the NRS provides for the mandatory indemnification of expenses actually and reasonably incurred by the Companys officers and directors where those officers and directors are successful in defending an action or claim brought against them as a result of serving in that capacity, regardless of whether the action or suit was criminal, civil, administrative or investigative in nature or whether the action was brought by or on behalf of the Company.
Third Party Actions Unsuccessfully Defended
Subsection 78.7502(1) of the NRS allows for the discretionary indemnification of the Companys officers and directors against expenses actually and reasonably incurred by them upon unsuccessfully defending against civil, criminal, administrative or investigative actions or suits brought against them by third parties, if the officer or director acted:
(a) |
in good faith; and | |
(b) |
in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company. |
3
With respect to criminal proceedings, in order to be eligible for indemnification by the Company, the officer or director must not have had reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
Actions By or On Behalf of the Company Unsuccessfully Defended
Subsection 78.7502(2) of the NRS allows for the discretionary indemnification of the Companys officers and directors for expenses actually and reasonably incurred when unsuccessfully defending actions brought by or on behalf of the Company. In these instances, the Company may indemnify its officers or directors if the officer or director acted:
(a) |
in good faith; and | |
(b) |
in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company. |
However, the Company may not indemnify an officer or director for:
(a) |
a claim, issue or matter in which that officer or director has been adjudged to be liable to the Company; or | |
(b) |
amounts to be paid in settlement to the Company, |
unless a court has determined that the director or officer is fairly and reasonably entitled to be indemnified.
Insurance
Section 78.752 of the NRS provides that the Company may purchase insurance or make other financial arrangements for its officers or directors for liabilities arising out of his or her position, regardless of whether the officer or director would have been entitled to indemnification from the Company. The Company does not currently maintain insurance for its directors or officers.

Item 9. Undertakings.
The Company hereby undertakes:
1. |
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement: |
(i) |
to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act; | |
(ii) |
to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement; | |
(iii) |
to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement; |
Provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if this Registration Statement is on Form S-8, and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the Company pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement. | |
2. |
That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement related to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. |
3. |
To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. |
The Company hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Companys annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company has 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. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Company will, unless in the opinion of its 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.
