Item 8.01   Other Events

Tidelands  Oil & Gas Corp.,  (the  "Company")  and Michael  Ward,  the Company's
former  President,  CEO and member of the board of directors,  have entered into
the formal  written  documentation  (the  "Agreement")  as  described in the 8-K
Current Report filed on December 11, 2006.

The  summary  of the key  terms of the  Agreement  are set  forth  below and are
qualified

     (1)  Mr.  Ward  has  agreed  to  execute  documents  as may  be  reasonably
          requested  by the Company to formalize  and finalize his  resignations
          from the Company and its subsidiaries.

     (2)  Mr.  Ward has agreed to repay the  following  obligations  owed to the
          Company, on, or before December 31, 2006:

          (a)  The airplane note outstanding  principal and all accrued interest
               to the date of the  payment.  The total amount due as of December
               15, 2006 is $286,810.36.

          (b)  The stock  subscription  amended  promissory note dated September
               15, 2005 in the original principal amount of $110,000.  The total
               amount due as of December 15, 2006 is $122,375.

          (c)  Other  amounts  due to the Company  for unpaid  expense  advances
               totaling $428.55.

     (3)  Mr. Ward will bring  current and assume all Company  obligations  with
          regard to the SBC Center Terrace Suite License  Agreement  between the
          Company and the San Antonio Spurs, LLC dated June 1, 2004 (the "Skybox
          Agreement").  The Company agrees to assign all of its rights under the
          Skybox Agreement to Mr. Ward. The parties acknowledged that the Skybox
          Agreement  is  assignable  only with the  consent  of the San  Antonio
          Spurs,  LLC.  Mr.  Ward  will  use his  best  efforts  to  obtain  the
          assignment  with a full  release of the Company  from its  obligations
          under the  Skybox  Agreement.  If Mr.  Ward is unable to obtain a full
          release of the  Company  from the Skybox  Agreement,  then the Company
          assignment of the Skybox Agreement will contain a security interest in
          favor of the Company  giving it the right to retake  possession of the
          premises.

     (4)  The Company will issue Mr. Ward Five Hundred  (500,000) Company common
          shares under the terms of his Employment Agreement.  The stock will be
          subject to a security  interest  in favor of the Company to secure the
          assignment  of the Skybox  Agreement.  If the Skybox  Agreement is not
          assigned to Mr. Ward on, or before  December  31,  2006,  these shares
          will be returned to the Company.

     (5)  The  Company   will  pay  Mr.  Ward  the  total  sum  of   $134,415.72
          representing  six (6) months salary,  plus COBRA payments for the same
          period of time,  commencing January 1, 2007 according to the Company's
          payroll  schedule.  In the event, that Mr. Ward is unable to secure an
          assignment of the Skybox  Agreement on, or before January 31, 2007, as
          contemplated  by the  Agreement,  the salary and COBRA payments may be
          suspended  by  the  Company  until  the  contemplated   assignment  is
          completed.

     (6)  The Company granted Mr. Ward a two-year right of first refusal to meet
          or exceed any offer by a third party which is  acceptable to the board
          of  directors,  and if  required,  by  law,  the  bylaws  and,  or the
          shareholders,  for the purchase of Sonterra Energy Corporation and, or
          Tidelands Exploration and Production, Inc. subsidiaries.



     (7)  The Company will entertain an offer,  which may be made by Mr. Ward or
          an investor group to acquire Sonterra Energy Corporation and Tidelands
          Exploration & Production,  Inc.  subsidiaries.  The Company will grant
          Mr. Ward a two year first right of refusal to meet or exceed any offer
          from a third party for either or both of these subsidiaries.
