ITEM 1.01

ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE
AGREEMENT.
|
Agreement with May Petroleum, Inc.
On April 2, 2008, Royal Petroleum Company Inc. (the "Company")
entered into an Agreement with May Petroleum, Inc., a Texas company ("May"), to
acquire May's interest in an oil and gas prospect (the "Prospect") in Matagorda
County, Texas (the "Agreement").
May has developed an oil and gas prospect in Matagorda County,
Texas (the "Prospect"), including obtaining an assignment of a Purchase and Sale
Agreement (the "Purchase and Sale Agreement") to acquire a 70% net revenue
interest in a lease covering approximately 1,500 acres (the "Airport Lease") and
obtaining and reviewing significant geophysical, geological, title and
engineering data (the "Data") on the Airport Lease and an area of mutual
interest (the "Area of Mutual Interest") covering 30 square miles surrounding
the Airport Lease.
Under the terms of the Agreement, May transferred and assigned
to the Company all its right, title and interest in the Prospect, the Purchase
and Sale Agreement and the Data in consideration of the following:
|
1.
|
the issuance to May of 50,000,000 shares (the "Shares")
of the Company's common stock within five (5) business days of the date of
the Agreement; and
|
|
|
|
|
2.
|
the reimbursement to May within thirty (30) days of the
date of the Agreement of the $100,000 deposit paid by May under the
Purchase and Sale Agreement.
|
The Agreement also contemplates that any other property
interest acquired in the Area of Mutual Interest shall become part of the
Prospect and subject to the Agreement.
The Company will be responsible for making all payments and
completing all acts required under the Purchase and Sale Agreement or any other
agreements in respect of properties comprising the Prospect. Under the terms of
the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Company will be required to pay an
additional $900,000 as follows:
|
|
(a)
|
$400,000 by April 21, 2008; and
|
|
|
(b)
|
$500,000 by July 13, 2008.
|
Under the terms of the Airport Lease, the Company will be
required to commence drilling operations on or before August 1, 2008; in
addition, the Company will be obligated to pay an operation bonus payment of
$150,000 to the landowner.
May is a company controlled by Norris R. Harris, the Company's
Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and Director. Although the Agreement was
entered into on April 2, 2008, its principal terms were negotiated with Mr.
Harris prior to him becoming a director or officer on the Company on March 31,
2008.
A copy of the Agreement is attached as an exhibit and
incorporated herein by reference to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
In order to maintain the Prospect, the Company will be
required to obtain substantial financing. Although, the Company has arranged for
a private placement offering of its common stock as disclosed under Item 7.01
below, there are no assurances that the private placement offering will be
completed or that the Company will be able to arrange sufficient financing to
enable it to make the required payments required under the Purchase and Sale
Agreement or any other agreements in respect of properties comprising the
Prospect.

Executive Officer and Director, is a controlling shareholder of May Petroleum,

officer of the Company.
