Explanation of Responses:

* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1) Impact International, LLC ("Impact International") was issued 500,000 shares of common stock of Tidelands Oil & Gas Corporation ("Common Stock") pursuant to the terms of the First Amendment to Stock Purchase Warrant (the "Amended Warrant") dated effective as of May 25, 2004 between Impact Internatiional and Tidelands Oil & Gas Corporation. Under the terms of the Amended Warrant the foregoing shares of Common Stock were issued on a net issue basis (i.e. without the payment of cash). On May 9, 2005, Impact International received a stock certificate from the Tidelands Oil & Gas Corporation dated May 1, 2005 for the 500,000 shares of Common Stock.
(2) Pursuant to the terms of the Amended Warrant, Tidelands Oil & Gas Corp. must use its best efforts to file a registration statement ("Registration Statement") with the Securities and Exchange Commission related to the shares covered by the Amended Warrant. Because the Registration Statement was not filed by July 14, 2004, Tidelands Oil & Gas Corporation issued Impact International 500,000 shares of Common Stock represented by the Amended Warrant on a cashless basis on July 14, 2004 and must issue another 500,000 shares on a cashless basis every ninety (90) days thereafter until the Registration Statement is declared effective. The shares issued May 9, 2005 were part of the 500,000 series of cashless stock issuances payable to Impact International under the Amended Warrant because the Registration Statement has yet to be declared effective.
(3) Impact Internattional is the beneficial owner as that term is used in Section 4(b)(v) of the General Instructions for filing of Form 4. Impact International is owned sixty-eight percent (68%) by Impact Partners, L.L.C., an Oklahoma limited liability company ("Impact Partners"), and thirty-two percent (32%) by Ramiiilaj, A Limited Partnership ("Ramiiilaj"). Impact Partners acquired its ownership in Impact International from Impact Energy, LLC effective December 31, 2004. With certain exceptions, the owners of Impact International have agreed that all net proceeds of the Warrant and underlying Common Stock received by Impact International will be allocated and distributed to Ramiiilaj until it receives repayment of certain loans it has made to Impact International and thereafter will be allocated and distributed 75% to Ramiiilaj and 25% to Impact Partners.
(4) The right of Impact Partners to receive future allocations and distributions has been assigned to the following individuals in the percentages shown: Donald T. Jacobsen - forty-five percent (45%), Larry D. Woodson - twenty-three percent (23%), Gregory L. Brooks - fourteen percent (14%), Robert A. Shain - nine percent (9%), and Chris K. Corcoran - nine percent (9%). Each of the foregoing percentages has been rounded up or down to the nearest percent. Ramiiilaj is owned 99.7% by Robert A. Hefner III. The address for each of the foregoing persons is as set forth above for Impact.
(5) The Amended Warrant was issued by Tidelands Oil & Gas Corporation in connection with its purchase of Impact International's 72% limited partnership interest and Coahuila Pipeline, LLC's 1% interest in Reef Ventures, LP. Impact International financed Tidelands Oil & Gas Corporation's purchase of the units in Reef Ventures, LP by taking back a promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $6,523,773.
