Safe Harbor Statement.

This Report on Form 8-K includes forward-looking information regarding American Petro-Hunter, Inc. that is intended to be covered by the safe harbor “forward-looking statements” provided by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Statements that are predictive in nature, that depend upon or refer to future events or conditions, or that include words such as “will”, “would”, “should”, “plans”, “likely”, “expects”, “anticipates”, “intends”, “believes”, “estimates”, “thinks”, “may”, and similar expressions, are forward-looking statements.  Statements that are not historical facts are also forward looking statements.  Although we believe that our expectations are based on reasonable assumptions, there are risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to be materially different from those in the forward-looking statements.  These factors include, among other things:

 
·

·
the Company’s ability to make acquisitions on economically acceptable terms;

uncertainties inherent in oil and gas production operations;

 
·
unexpected future capital expenditures accuracy of well test results; and

 
·
successful transition from the Company’s well-testing period to full commercial production and the successful management of the Company’s capital development project and other normal business risks.

The foregoing factors do not constitute an exhaustive list of factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in forward-looking statements, and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements and risk factors included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 15, 2009 and other cautionary statements described in our subsequent reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements for any reason, even if new information becomes available or other events occur in the future.  We caution you not to place undue reliance on those statements.
