| Item 4.02 | Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review |
Doral Energy Corp. (the “Company”) has corrected an overvaluation of the net profit royalty interest (the “NPORRI”) granted in connection with the Company’s $50,000,000 Senior First Lien Secured Credit Agreement with Macquarie Bank Limited. Correcting this overvaluation is expected to result in the Company recording approximately $5.1 million less in interest expense and approximately $3.3 million less in net losses for the full fiscal year ended July 31, 2009 than originally anticipated.
When preparing its financial statements for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2009, the Company determined that the original valuation model for the NPORRI contained errors that resulted in an overstatement of the value of the NPORRI. After discovering this issue, the Company engaged an independent economist to re-evaluate the value of the NPORRI, resulting in a substantially lower value being assigned to the NPORRI at the date of grant than the value originally assigned for accounting purposes.
Also as a result of this correction, on November 4, 2009, the management and Board of Directors of Doral Energy Corp. (the “Company”) concluded that the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended July 31, 2008, and the Company’s unaudited financial statements for the interim periods ended October 31, 2008, January 31, 2009 and April 30, 2009, (collectively, the “Relevant Periods”) should no longer be relied upon and will be restated. Correcting the above valuation error is expected to have the following effects on the Company’s financial statements for the Relevant Periods:
Year ended July 31, 2008
| Financial Statement Item | Increase (Decrease) |
| Oil and gas properties | $5,118,254 |
| Notes payable | $5,118,254 |
Three months ended October 31, 2008
| Financial Statement Item | Increase (Decrease) |
| Oil and gas properties | $5,107,408 |
| Notes payable | $5,098,946 |
| Depletion expense | $10,846 |
| Interest expense | $(19,308) |
| Net loss | $8,462 |
Three months ended January 31, 2009
| Financial Statement Item | Increase (Decrease) |
| Oil and gas properties | $5,104,771 |
| Deferred federal income tax assets | $(1,775,537) |
| Depletion expense | $2,637 |
| Interest expense | $(5,098,946) |
| Income tax benefit | $(1,775,537) |
| Net loss | $(3,329,234) |
Three months ended April 30, 2009
| Financial Statement Item | Increase (Decrease) |
| Oil and gas properties | $5,099,918 |
| Deferred federal income tax assets | $(1,775,537) |
| Depletion expense | $4,853 |
| Net loss | $4,853 |

The Company expects to file restated financial statements for the Relevant Periods as soon as practicable. The Company expects to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K on a timely basis within the extended period set out in Rule 12b-25 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
The Company’s Board of Directors discussed the decision to restate the Company’s financial statements for the Relevant Periods with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, Malone & Bailey, PC.
