DIRECTORS
The names of the Directors who held office during or since the end of the half-year and until the date of this report are noted below. Directors were in office for this entire period unless otherwise stated.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
The net loss for the half-year attributable to members of Modena Resources Limited was $9,068,018 (31 December 2007 - $288,376).
Bullseye Prospect (15% before casing point working Interest, prior to back-in rights of vendor; 9% after casing point working interest)
The Bullseye Prospect is located in Iberville Parish, Louisiana, USA.
As reported by the operator, Golden Gate Petroleum Ltd:
==> picture [10 x 13] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [10 x 13] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [10 x 13] intentionally omitted <==
-
Jumonville #1 is currently producing approximately 480 barrels of oil per day and 280 mcf of gas per day;
-
Drilling operations began at Jumonville #2 on 25 December and were expected to take around 60 days to complete; and
-
Re-entry at Acosta #1 well was completed and flow testing is continuing.
Jumonville #1 Bullseye Prospect
The Jumonville #1 well which has been in production since late September 2008 was briefly shut-in during December. The shut-in was for safety reasons while the transporting and setting up of the H&P #79 rig to drill Jumonville #2 occurred. The well was put back on production at the beginning of January 2009.
The well‟s current daily production rates are approximately 480 barrels of oil and 280 mcf of gas.
Jumonville #2 Bullseye Prospect
The Jumonville #2 well commenced drilling operations on 25 December 2008. Surface casing was set at 3,600 feet. Total depth is planned for approximately 14,200ft.
The Jumonville #2 well targets three objectives: the Camerina, Miogyp and Cib Haz Formations. The primary target in the Jumonville #2 well is the deeper Cib Haz reservoir which is contained in the same hydrocarbon trap as the shallower productive intervals. Although deeper than the proven Miogyp reservoir and apparent pay in the Camerina section, it is considered to have a high probability of success, but is considered an exploration target since it has yet to be tested. In addition, the Jumonville # 2 well will penetrate the Miogyp updip from the oil production in the Jumonville #1 well, providing additional confirmation of pay thickness and distribution of this reservoir.
2
The proprietary 3D seismic data, which provided an accurate pre-drill estimate of pay thickness in the Jumonville # 1 well, indicates substantially thicker reservoir sand over a larger area in the deeper Cib Haz reservoir. If this deeper test is successful the combined reserves of the Camerina, Miogyp and Cib Haz has the potential to make Bullseye one of the largest onshore discoveries in South Louisiana in recent years with a P50 estimate of 22.5 mmboe.
Acosta #1 Well, Bullseye Prospect
The re-entry work on the Acosta #1 well began in November and successfully reached total depth of 12,475 feet on 9 December. Open hole logs and side wall cores made during the drilling indicated approximately 24 feet of net pay in the Miogyp formation and 26 feet of oil saturated porosity in the Camerina formation. A service rig was on site by the end of December to begin completion operations and testing.
The Acosta #1 well has commenced testing operations. Initial perforations of the Miogyp reservoir have experienced apparent formation damage limiting well bore entry which is most likely caused by the close-by original well bore. A remedial treatment program is being completed with results pending.
Surface Production Facilities – Bullseye Prospect
The surface production facility work has continued with the installation of four 1,500 bbl tanks along with oil, gas and water flow lines for the Jumonville #1 well, the Acosta #1 well and the recently commenced Jumonville #2 well. The gas sales line went operational with initial sales commencing in mid-December.
Manzano Prospect (12.5% working interest)
An undivided 12.5% leasehold and working interest in and to a defined oil and gas lease, covering certain lands and leases located in Kleberg County, Texas, USA known as the “Manzano Prospect”.
ST Tract 991#1)
Plugged and abandoned during the period.
Dunn McCampbell 11A
Dunn McCampbell 11A successfully produced 93,200 mcf of gas during the December quarter. It is presently producing at an average of 1,800 mcf from a perforated 8 foot interval.
Armstrong Farm Lease (25% working interest)
An undivided 25% leasehold and working interest in and to a defined oil and gas lease, covering certain lands and lease located in Kenedy County Texas USA. The lease covers an area of approximately 1,477 acres. The lease block has the potential for a number of prospective targets.
No further update on the Armstrong Farm Lease.
Jackson Shallow Gas Prospects (52.5% working interest)
On 21 November 2008, the company announced that due to the current economic conditions, commitments to the Jackson Shallow Gas Prospects could not be justified and a decision had been taken to relinquish all rights in the Prospects. The Board is of the view that it is in the best interests of the company to concentrate on the successful Bullseye Prospect. The company has received a credit for expenditure undertaken on the Jackson Shallow Gas Prospects.
3
Wilson Prospect (10% working interest)
The Wilson Prospect is located in Pardre Island, Texas, USA on the Gulf of Mexico.
Following a review of the prospectivity for commercially rectifying production problems on ST 949 #1 the joint venture has agreed to plug and abandon the well.
South Lost Hills Properties (10% working interest)
No work was carried out during the half-year.
Subsequent Events
Subsequent to reporting date, the company:
-
(a) reached agreement on the terms of a secured convertible note facility for an amount of $2,500,000 and in respect of which funds had been received as an advance. The Notes are convertible into ordinary fully paid shares at an issue price determined as the lesser of 25 cents per share or 80% of the average market price of the company‟s shares over the last 30 days on which sales are recorded before the date of conversion, at any time on or before the redemption date of 29 January 2010. The Notes are secured by way of Deed of Charge against the net cash flow from Modena‟s farm-in to and participation in the Bullseye Prospect, otherwise the Noteholder will rank equally with all other unsecured creditors of the Company.

MODENA RESOURCES LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the half-year ended 31 December 2008
1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Statement of compliance
The half-year consolidated financial statements are a general purpose financial report prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and AASB 134: Interim Financial Reporting. Compliance with AASB 134 ensures compliance with IAS 34 „Interim Financial Reporting‟.
The half-year report does not include full disclosures of the type normally included in an annual financial report. Therefore, it cannot be expected to provide as full an understanding of the financial performance, financial position and cash flows of the group as in the full financial report.
It is recommended that this financial report be read in conjunction with the annual financial report for the year ended 30 June 2008 and any public announcements made by Modena Resources Limited and its subsidiaries during the half-year in accordance with continuous disclosure requirements arising under the Corporations Act 2001 and the ASX Listing Rules.
Basis of preparation
The half-year report has been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for financial assets which are measured at fair value. Cost is based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for assets. All amounts are presented in Australian dollars, unless otherwise noted.
For the purpose of preparing the half-year report, the half-year has been treated as a discrete reporting period.
Significant accounting judgements and key estimates
The preparation of interim financial reports requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
In preparing this half-year report, the significant judgements made by management in applying the Group‟s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial report for the year ended 30 June 2008.
Going Concern
The Board considers that the consolidated entity is a going concern and recognises that additional funding will be required to ensure that it can continue to fund the consolidated entity‟s operations for the 12 month period from the date of this financial report. The Directors believe after consideration of the these matters, there are reasonable grounds to believe that the consolidated entity will be able to pay its debts as and when they become due and payable and is a going concern because of the following factors:
==> picture [10 x 13] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [10 x 13] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [10 x 14] intentionally omitted <==
-
The ability to issue additional shares under the Corporations Act 2001;
-
The Company‟s projects are nearing production phase and are now generating revenue; and/or
-
The Company‟s commitment to exploration expenditure is discretionary and, if required, could enter into farm-in arrangements on its projects.
Accordingly, the Directors believe that the consolidated entity will obtain sufficient funding to enable it to continue as a going concern and that it is appropriate to adopt that basis of accounting in the preparation of this half-year financial report. The financial report does not contain any adjustments to the amounts or classification of recorded assets or liabilities that might be necessary if the company does not continue as a going concern.

MODENA RESOURCES LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the half-year ended 31 December 2008
2. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
For the purposes of the balance sheet, cash and cash equivalents are comprised of the following:
| Cash at bank and in hand | 31 December 2008 $ 30 June 2008 $ 815,994 221,238 |
|---|---|
(i) Non-cash financing and investing activities
During the half-year, unsecured convertible notes with a face value of $829,341 were converted to 4,828,565 ordinary fully paid shares
During the previous half-year:
-
(a) unsecured convertible notes with a face value of $1,666,818 were converted to 8,334,090 ordinary fully paid shares; and
-
(b) the company issued 20,000,000 ordinary fully paid shares at an issue price of 20 cents each as consideration for the acquisition of Murviel Trading SA.
3. EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION EXPENDITURE
Costs carried forward in respect of areas of interest in the following phases:
| Exploration and evaluation phase – at cost Movement Carrying amount at beginning of period Interests acquired from acquisition of controlled entity Expenditure incurred Impairment * Carrying amount at end of period |
31 December 2008 $ 30 June 2008 $ 6,975,752 11,849,989 |
|---|---|
| 11,849,989 2,344,549 - 4,000,000 3,713,140 7,673,141 (8,587,377) (2,167,701) |
|
| 6,975,752 11,849,989 |
- Impairment includes write offs incurred with respect to drilling and prospect costs, including acquisition costs. The write offs were as a result of lack of exploration success and the directors ongoing analysis of the economic viability of projects.
Ultimate recoupment of exploration and evaluation expenditure carried forward is dependent on successful development and commercial exploitation or, alternatively, sale of the relevant areas of interest, at amounts at least equal to book value.

The directors of the consolidated entity are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the half-year financial report in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (including the Australian Accounting Interpretations) and the Corporations Act 2001 . This responsibility includes establishing and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the half-year financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of Interim and Other Financial Reports Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity , in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity’s financial position as at 31 December 2008 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 . As the auditor of Modena Resources Limited, ASRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial report.
A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Independence
In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 .
Conclusion
Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report of Modena Resources Limited is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including:
-
(a) giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity’s financial position as at 31 December 2008 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and
-
(b) complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and Corporations Regulations 2001.
Material Uncertainty Regarding Continuation as a Going Concern
Without qualifying our conclusion, as disclosed in financial report, Modena Resources Limited incurred a net loss of $9,068,018 and had net cash outflows from operating activities of $210,942 during the half year ended 31 December 2008. These conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 1, indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, and therefore whether it will realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business.
