ITEM 1.  BUSINESS

PART I

Enservco Corporation (the “Company” or “Enservco”) was originally incorporated under the name Aspen Exploration Corporation
(“Aspen”) as a Delaware corporation on February 28, 1980 for the primary purpose of acquiring, exploring and developing oil and natural
gas and other mineral properties.  On June 30, 2009, the Company disposed of all of its remaining oil and natural gas producing assets
and as a result was no longer engaged in active business operations.   On June 24, 2010, the Company entered into an Agreement and
Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “Agreement”) with  Dillco Fluid Service, Inc. (“Dillco”) which set forth the terms by which Dillco
merged with a subsidiary of Aspen (the “Merger Transaction”).  The Merger Transaction closed on July 27, 2010, and resulted in Dillco
becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.   Dillco and its related entities are primarily engaged in the business of providing
various services to participants in the oil and gas industry.

On  December  30,  2010  the  Company  changed  its  name  under  Delaware  law  from  Aspen  Exploration  Corporation  to  Enservco
Corporation.    The  name  change  was  approved  by  Company  stockholders  holding  approximately  73%  of  the  Company’s  outstanding
common  stock  in  October  2010,  although  to  assure  compliance  with  the  federal  securities  laws,  the  approval  was  not  effective  until
December  2010.      The  name  change  was  effected  primarily  because  the  Company  believes  the  name  “Enservco”  better  describes  the
Company’s current activities and operations of providing oil field services to the energy industry.

As  used  in  this  report,  unless  otherwise  indicated  the  terms  “Enservco”  and/or  “the  Company”  refer  to  Enservco  Corporation  and  its
subsidiary entities giving effect to the Merger Transaction, for all periods and events described.  The term “Aspen” is intended to refer to
the activities of Aspen Exploration Corporation without giving effect to the Merger Transaction, and all such references are intended to give
context to the reader.  Aspen filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 on September 29, 2010, and
information with respect to Aspen and its activities prior to the Merger Transaction are included in that report, as well as reports Aspen
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission prior to July 27, 2010.

The Company’s executive (or corporate) offices are located at 830 Tenderfoot Hills Rd., Suite 310, Colorado Springs, Colorado

80906.  Our telephone number is (719) 867-9911, and our facsimile number is (719) 867-9912.  Our website is www.enservco.com.

Corporate Structure

Immediately prior to closing the Merger Transaction, Dillco’s assets and the ownership interests of its subsidiaries were held and
controlled primarily through a holding company, Enservco LLC (“LLC”).  Starting in 2009 the LLC and its then principal interest holders
engaged in a series of transactions aimed to help ensure all assets utilized by the LLC for its business operations were owned through the
LLC and to otherwise create better internal efficiency.  Certain of these reorganizational transactions are further described under Item 13
of this Annual Report.

On  July  26,  2010,  immediately  prior  to  completion  of  the  Merger  Transaction,  Dillco  merged  into  LLC,  with  Dillco  being  the
surviving entity in that transaction. Prior to that transaction, the LLC served as a holding company for Dillco, Heat Waves Hot Oil Express
LLC (“Heat Waves”), and other entities that owned assets utilized by the Company in its business operations.

Immediately prior to the completion of the Merger Transaction, Dillco had two stockholders, Mr. Herman (who owned 90% of the
outstanding Dillco stock) and Mr. Kasch (10%).  Mr. Herman has been a Manager, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and control person
of the LLC, Dillco, Heat Waves and the other Dillco subsidiaries since the time of their formation and/or acquisition by the LLC.  Mr. Kasch
has served as the Chief Financial Officer and a Manager for these same entities since the time of their formation and/or acquisition.

The Company’s business operations are conducted primarily through Dillco and its subsidiary and related entities.  Dillco conducts certain
of its business operations directly, but other portions of its operations and assets are (and historically were) operated and held in various
subsidiary and related entities. However, Dillco and its wholly owned subsidiary Heat Waves are the primary operating entities through
which Enservco conducts its operations.    The below table provides an overview of the Company’s current subsidiaries.

Overview of Business Operations

Enservco (through Heat Waves and Dillco) provides a wide range of services to a diverse group of independent and major oil and
natural gas companies.  These include well servicing (frac heating, hot oiling, pressure testing and acidizing), fluid services (fresh and salt
water  hauling,  disposal  and  storage)  and  well  site  construction  services.    These  services  play  a  fundamental  role  in  establishing  and
maintaining  a  well  throughout  its  productive  life.  The  Company’s  operations  are  currently  concentrated  in  domestic,  onshore  oil  and
natural  gas  producing  regions  in  southern  Kansas,  northwestern  Oklahoma,  northeastern  Utah,  northern  New  Mexico,  southern
Wyoming, northwestern West Virginia and all of Colorado and southwestern Pennsylvania.  Enservco is currently exploring opportunities,
based on customer needs, to provide services in the Bakken Shale basin in North Dakota and to expand its operations in the Marcellus
Shale formation in northeastern Pennsylvania and in the Niobrara Basin in northern Colorado and Wyoming.

Management believes that Enservco is strategically positioned with its ability to provide its services to a large customer base in
key oil and natural gas basins in the United States.  Management is optimistic that as a result of the significant expenditures the Company
has made in new equipment in combination with the benefits that may be realized from the Merger Transaction, that the Company will be
able to further grow and develop its business operations.

Historically,  the  Company  focused  its  growth  strategy  on  strategic  acquisitions  of  operating  companies  and  then  expanding
operations  through  additional  capital  investment  consisting  of  the  acquisition  and  fabrication  of  property  and  equipment.    That  strategy
also  included  expanding  the  Company’s  geographical  footprint  as  well  as  expanding  the  services  it  provides.      These  strategies  are
exemplified by the acquisitions of operating entities (described below) and:

(1)

(2)

In  2008,  2009  and  2010,  Dillco  and  Heat  Waves  spent  approximately  $7.8  million,  $2.0  million  and  $2.2  million  (not
including  capital  leases  of  approximately  $455,000),  respectively,  for  the  acquisition  and  fabrication  of  property  and
equipment; and

To  expand  its  footprint,  in  mid-2008  Heat  Waves  moved  into  the  Uintah  basin  in  northwestern  Utah  and  in  early  2010
Heat Waves began providing services in the Marcellus Shale natural gas field in southwestern Pennsylvania and West
Virginia.

Going  forward  the  Company  expects  to  continue  to  pursue  its  growth  strategies  of  exploring  additional  acquisitions,  potentially
expanding  the  geographic  areas  in  which  it  operates,  and  diversifying  the  products  and  services  it  provides  to  customers,  as  well  as
making further investments in its assets and equipment.

As  noted  above,  the  Company  conducts  its  business  operations  and  holds  assets  primarily  through  subsidiary  entities.    The

following describes the operations and assets of Enservco’s subsidiaries through which it conducts its business operations.

Dillco.  From  its  inception  in  1974,  Dillco  has  focused  primarily  on  providing  water  hauling/disposal/storage  services,  well  site
construction  services  and  frac  tank  rental  to  energy  companies  working  in  the  Hugoton  gas  field  in  western  Kansas  and  northwestern
Oklahoma. Water hauling/disposal has been the primary source of Dillco’s revenue.  Dillco currently owns and operates a fleet of water
hauling  trucks  and  related  assets,  including  specialized  tank  trucks,  frac  tanks,  water  disposal  wells,  construction  and  other  related
equipment.  These  assets  transport,  store and  dispose  of  both  fresh  and  salt  water,  as  well  as  provide  well  site  construction  and
maintenance services.

Heat Waves. Heat Waves provides a range of well stimulation/maintenance services to a diverse group of independent and major

oil and natural gas companies.  The primary services provided are intended to:

(1)

(2)

Assist in the fracturing of formations for newly drilled oil and natural gas wells; and

Help maintain and enhance the production of existing wells throughout their productive life.

These  services  consist  of  frac  heating,  hot  oiling  and  acidizing.    Heat  Waves  also  provides  some  water  hauling  and  well  site
construction  services.    Heat  Waves’  operations  are  currently  in  southern  Kansas,  northwestern  Oklahoma,  northeastern  Utah  (Uintah
Basin),  northern  New  Mexico,  southern  and  central  Wyoming  (Niobrara  formation),  Colorado  (D-J  Basin),  and  southwest  Pennsylvania/
northwestern  West  Virginia,  (Marcellus  Shale).      In  addition  to  expanding  its  current  operations  in  the  Niobrara  region,  Heat  Waves  is
currently exploring opportunities, to provide services in the Northern Marcellus Shale field, the Bakken Shale basin in North Dakota and
the Eagle Ford Shale basin in south Texas.

HES.    HES  owns  construction  and  related  equipment  that  Heat  Waves  uses  in  its  well  site  construction  and  maintenance
services.  However, HES does not currently engage in any business activities itself.  HES also owns a disposal well that Dillco uses for
salt water disposal.  HES acquired the well from Mr. Herman in March 2010 for $100,000, which amount was paid in September 2010.

Real GC.  Real GC owns land in Garden City, Kansas, which Heat Waves uses for the location of an acid dock facility, truck and

inventory storage, and other related purposes.

Trinidad  Housing.    Trinidad  Housing  owns  land  and  a  building  in  Trinidad,  Colorado  that  was  previously  used  as  a  nursing
home.  The building has been converted for use as rental housing for Heat Waves employees from out of town that were working at the
Trinidad facility.  There are currently no such employees at the Trinidad facility and the property is actively being marketed for sale.

Disposal Wells.  Dillco and HES together own a total of five licensed disposal wells.

Products and Services

The Company provides a range of services to owners and operators of oil and natural gas wells.  Such services can generally be

grouped into the three following categories:

(1)

(2)

(3)

Fluid management services, i.e., water hauling, frac tank rental and disposal services;

Well enhancement services, i.e., hot oiling, acidizing, frac hearing and pressure testing, and

Well site construction services.

Dillco  primarily  provides  fluid  management  and  well  site  construction  services  whereas  Heat  Waves  primarily  provides  well
enhancement  and  construction  services.    The  following  map  shows  the  primary  areas  in  which  Heat  Waves  and  Dillco  currently  have
active business operations.

The following is a more complete description of the services provided by Enservco through its subsidiaries.

Fluid Services.

Water  Hauling  – Historically water hauling has accounted for approximately 40% of the Company’s revenues on a consolidated
basis.   Dillco currently owns and operates approximately 30 water hauling trucks equipped with pumps to move water from or into wells,
tanks and other storage facilities in order to assist customers in managing their water-cost needs.  Each truck has a hauling capacity of up
to 130 barrels (each barrel being equal to 42 U.S. gallons). The trucks are used to:

(1)

Transport water to fill frac tanks on well locations,

(2)

Transport contaminated water produced as a by-product of producing wells to disposal wells, including disposal wells that we
own and operate,

(3)

Transport drilling and completion fluids to and from well locations, and

(4)

Following  completion  of  fracturing  operations,  the  trucks  are  used  to  transport  the  flow-back  produced  as  a  result  of  the
fracturing process from the well site to disposal wells.

Most wells produce residual salt or fresh water in conjunction with the extraction of the oil or natural gas. Dillco’s trucks pick up
water at the well site and transport it to a disposal well for injection or to other environmentally sound surface recycling facilities.  This is
regular maintenance work that is done on a periodic basis depending on the volume of water a well produces.  Water-cost management is
an  ongoing  need  for  oil  and  natural  well  gas  operators  throughout  the  life  of  a  well.    Dillco’s  ability  to  outperform  competitors  in  this
segment  is  primarily  dependent  on  logistical  factors  such  as  the  proximity  between  areas  where  water  is  produced  or  used  and  where
strategic placement and/or access to both disposal wells and recycling facilities.  Dillco, Heat Waves and HES own five water disposal
wells in Kansas and Oklahoma.  It is management’s intent to expand Enservco’s disposal well holdings and access to recycling facilities.

Typically  Dillco  and  a  customer  enter  into  a  contract  for  services  after  that  customer  has  completed  a  competitive  bidding
process. Requirements for minor or incidental water hauling services are usually purchased on a “call out” basis and charged according to
a published schedule of rates.  Dillco competes for services both on a call out and contractual basis.

Workover,  completion,  and  remedial  activities  also  provide  the  opportunity  for  higher  operating  margins  from  tank  rentals  and
water hauling services. Drilling and workover jobs typically require water for multiple purposes. Completion and workover procedures often
also require large volumes of water for fracturing operations, a process of stimulating a well hydraulically to increase production. All fluids
are required to be transported from the well site to an approved disposal facility.

Competitors in the water hauling business are mostly small, regionally focused companies. The level of water hauling activity is
comprised  of  a  relatively  stable  demand  for  services  related  to  the  maintenance  of  producing  wells  and  a  highly  variable  demand  for
services used in the drilling and completion of new wells. As a result, the level of domestic onshore drilling activity significantly affects the
level of the Company’s activity in this service area, and may vary from region to region and from season to season.

Disposal  Well  Services  – The  Company  owns  five  disposal  wells  that  allow  for  the  injection  of  salt  water  and  incidental  non-

hazardous oil and natural gas wastes.

Our  trucks  frequently  transport  fluids  to  be  disposed  of  into  these  disposal  wells.  The  Company’s  disposal  wells  are  located  in
southwestern Kansas and northwestern Oklahoma in areas in proximity to our customers’ producing wells. Most oil and natural gas wells
produce varying amounts of water throughout their productive lives. In the states in which we operate, oil and  natural gas wastes and
water  produced  from  oil  and    natural  gas  wells  are  required  by  law  to  be  disposed  of  in  authorized  facilities,  including  permitted  water
disposal  wells.    These  disposal  wells  are  licensed  by  state  authorities  pursuant  to  guidelines  and  regulations  imposed  by  the
Environmental Protection Agency and the Safe Drinking Water Act and are completed in an environmentally sound manner in permeable
formations below the fresh water table.

Frac Tank Rental – Dillco also generates revenues from the rental of frac tanks which can store up to 500 barrels of water and are
used  by  oilfield  operators  to  store  fluids  at  the  well  site,  including  fresh  water,  salt  water,  and  acid  for  frac  jobs,  flowback,  temporary
production and mud storage. Dillco transports the tanks on its trucks to well locations that are usually within a 30 mile radius of its nearest
yard but can range from just a couple of miles up to as many as 200 miles. Frac tanks are used during all phases of the life of a producing
well. Dillco generally rents frac tanks at daily rates and charges hourly rates for the transportation of the tanks to and from the well site.

Well Enhancement Services.

Well  enhancement  services  consist  of  frac  heating,  acidizing,  hot  oiling  services,  and  pressure  testing.    These  services  are
provided  primarily  by  Heat  Waves  which  currently  utilizes  a  fleet  of  approximately  100  custom  designed  trucks  and  other  related
equipment.  Heat Waves’ operations are currently in southern Kansas, northwestern Oklahoma, northern New Mexico, southern Wyoming
(Niobrara),  Colorado  (D-J  Basin),  northeastern  Utah  (Uintah  Basin)  and  southwestern  Pennsylvania/northwestern  West  Virginia
(Marcellus Shale).  Heat Waves is currently exploring opportunities, based on customer needs, to expand its operations in the Niobrara
formation  and  to  begin  providing  services  in  the  Bakken  Shale  basin  in  North  Dakota.    Well  enhancement  services  accounted  for
approximately 55% of the Company’s total revenues for its 2010 fiscal year on a consolidated basis.

Frac Heating - Fracturing services are intended to enhance the production from oil and natural gas wells where the natural flow
has  been  restricted  by  underground  formations  through  the  creation  of  conductive  flowpaths  to  enable  the  hydrocarbons  to  reach  the
wellbore.  The  fracturing  process  consists  of  pumping  a  fluid  slurry,  which  largely  consists  of  fresh  water  and  a  “proppant”  (explained
below),  into  a  cased  well  at  sufficient  pressure  to  fracture  (i.e.  create  conductive  flowpaths)  the  producing  formation.    Sand,  bauxite  or
synthetic  proppants  are  suspended  in  the  fracturing  fluid  slurry  and  are  pumped  into  the  well  under  great  pressure  to  fracture  the
formation.  To ensure these solutions are properly mixed (gel frac) or that plain water (used in slick water fracs) can flow freely, the water
frequently needs to be heated to a sufficient temperature as determined by the well owner/operator.  Heat Waves owns and operates 15
frac heaters designed to heat large amounts of water stored in reservoirs or frac tanks.

Acidizing - Acidizing is most often used for any of three functions:

•

•

•

Increasing permeability throughout the formation,

Cleaning up formation damage near the wellbore caused by drilling, and

For removing buildup of materials restricting the flow in the formation or through perforations in the well casing.

Acidizing entails pumping large volumes of specially formulated acids and/or chemicals into a well to dissolve materials blocking
the flow of the oil or  natural gas.  The acid is pumped into the well under pressure and allowed time to react. The spent fluids are then
flowed or swabbed out of the well, after which the well is put back into production.

Heat Waves provides acidizing services by utilizing its fleet of 5 mobile acid transport and pumping trucks.  For most customers,
Heat  Waves  supplies  the  acid  solution  and  also  pumps  that  solution  into  a  given  well.    There  are  customers  who  provide  their  own
solutions and hire Heat Waves to pump the solution.

Hot Oil Services – Hot oil services involve the circulation of a heated fluid, typically oil, to dissolve or dislodge paraffin or other
hydrocarbon deposits from the tubing of a producing oil or natural gas well.  These deposits build up over a period of time from normal
production operations, although the rate at which these products build up depends on the chemical character of the oil and natural gas
being produced.  This is performed by circulating the hot oil down the casing and back up the tubing to remove the deposits from the well
bore.  Hot oiling is intended to melt the hydrocarbon deposits.  Hot oil servicing also includes the heating of oil storage tanks.  The heating
of storage tanks is done:

(1)

(2)

To eliminate water and other soluble waste in the tank for which the operator’s revenue is reduced at the refinery; and

Because heated oil flows more efficiently from the tanks to transports taking oil to the refineries in colder weather.

Heat Waves currently has 15 hot oil trucks in its fleet.

Pressure Testing – Pressure testing consist of pumping fluids into new or existing wells or other components of the well system

such as flow lines to detect leaks,  Hot oil trucks and pressure trucks are used to perform this service.

Construction and Roustabout Services.  

Dillco and Heat Waves derive revenue from their fleet of power units which includes dozers, trenchers, motor graders, backhoes
and other heavy equipment used in road and well-site construction. Contracts for well site construction services are normally awarded by
our customers on the basis of competitive bidding and may range in scope from several days to several weeks in duration. Construction
service revenues are directly impacted by the drilling activities of oil and natural gas companies.

Ownership of Company Assets

As described above, Enservco owns and uses a fleet of trucks, frac tanks, disposal wells and other assets to provide its services
and products.  Substantially all of the equipment and personal property assets owned by Dillco and Heat Waves are subject to a security
interest to secure loans made to Dillco and its subsidiary companies (which loans Enservco as the parent corporation has guaranteed).

Historically,  some  of  the  equipment  utilized  by  Dillco  and  Heat  Waves  was  leased  from  related  entities  -  HNR  and
HES.    Previously  HNR  and  HES  were  not  subsidiary  entities  of  Dillco,  but  were  owned  separately  by  our  Chief  Executive  Officer  Mr.
Herman  and  his  family.    HNR  was  formed  to  acquire  certain  assets  utilized  primarily  by  Dillco,  and  HES  was  formed  to  acquire
construction equipment leased to Heat Waves.  On December 31, 2009 Dillco acquired certain assets from HNR and then in March 2010
HES became a wholly owned subsidiary of Heat Waves.

Competitive Business Conditions

The  markets  in  which  Enservco  currently  operates  are  highly  competitive.  Competition  is  influenced  by  such  factors  as  price,
capacity,  the  quality  and  availability  of  equipment,  availability  of  work  crews,  and  reputation  and  experience  of  the  service  provider.
Enservco  believes  that  an  important  competitive  factor  in  establishing  and  maintaining  long-term  customer  relationships  is  having  an
experienced, skilled, and well-trained work force that is responsive to our customers’ needs.  Although we believe customers consider all
of these factors, price is often the primary factor in determining which service provider is awarded the work.

The  demand  for  our  services  fluctuates  primarily  in  relation  to  the  worldwide  commodity  price  (or  anticipated  price)  of  oil
and  natural gas which, in turn, is largely driven by the worldwide supply of, and demand for, oil and natural gas, political events, as well
as speculation within the financial markets.  Demand and prices are often volatile and difficult to predict and depends on events that are
not  within  our  control.    Generally,  as  supply  of  those  commodities  decreases  and  demand  increases,  service  and  maintenance
requirements increase as oil and natural gas producers drill new wells and attempt to maximize the productivity of their existing wells to
take advantage of the higher priced environment.  However, in a lower oil and natural gas price environment, as experienced during much
of 2009 and into 2010, demand for service and maintenance decreases as oil and natural gas producers decrease their drilling activity
and forego or reduce budgeted maintenance expenditures.  Due to the amount of production related work performed by the Company (as
compared to new drilling) our decrease in revenues in 2009 and 2010 from 2008 was not as severe as service companies whose primary
services are related to new well development.

Enservco’s competition primarily consists of small regional or local contractors.  Enservco attempts to differentiate itself from its
competition in large part through its superior equipment and the range and quality of services it has the capability to provide.  Enservco
invests a significant amount of capital into purchasing, developing, and maintaining a fleet of trucks and other equipment that are critical to
the services it provides.  Further, Enservco concentrates on providing services to a diverse group of large and small independent oil and
natural gas companies. We believe we have been successful using this business model and believe it will enable us to continue to grow
our business.

Dependence on One or a Few Major Customers

Enservco  serves  numerous  major  and  independent  oil  and  natural  gas  companies  that  are  active  in  its  core  areas  of
operations.    During  the  fiscal  year  ended  December  31,  2010,  only  one  of  the  Company’s  customers  accounted  for  more  than  10%  of
consolidated  revenues  at  approximately  13%  (all  other  customers  were  less  than  7%  of  revenues,  individually).    For  the  year  ended
December 31, 2009, there were no customers that accounted for 10% or more of the Company's total revenues.

The Company notes for the year ended December 31, 2010,  that though there are no other customers that accounted for more
than 10% of revenues, the Company’s top five customers accounted for approximately 35% of its total revenues.  The loss of any one of
these customers or a sustained decrease in demand by any of such customers could result in a substantial loss of revenues and could
have a material adverse effect on Enservco’s results of operations.

While the Company believes its equipment could be redeployed in the current market environment if Dillco and/or Heat Waves
lost  any  material  customers,  such  loss  could  have  an  adverse  effect  on  the  Company’s  business  until  the  equipment  is  redeployed.
Except as discussed in the preceding sentences, we believe that the market for Enservco’s services is sufficiently diversified that it is not
dependent on any single customer or a few major customers.

Seasonality

Portions  of  Enservco’s  operations  are  impacted  by  seasonal  factors,  particularly  with  regards  to  its  frac  water  heating  and  hot
oiling services.  In regards to frac heating, because customers rely on Heat Waves to heat large amounts of water for use in fracturing
formations, demand for this service is much greater in the colder months.  Similarly, hot oiling services are in higher demand during the
colder months when they are needed for maintenance of existing wells and to heat oil storage tanks.

Acidizing and pressure testing are done primarily during non-winter months.

The hauling of water from producing wells is not as seasonal as our other services since wells produce water whenever they are
pumping regardless of weather conditions.  Hauling of water for the drilling or fracturing of wells is also not seasonal but dependent on
when customers decide to drill or complete wells.

Raw Materials

Enservco purchases a wide variety of raw materials, parts, and components that are made by other manufacturers and suppliers
for our use.  Enservco is not dependent on any single source of supply for those parts, supplies or materials. However, there are a limited
number  of  vendors  for  certain  acids  and  chemicals.    Enservco  utilizes  a  limited  number  of  suppliers  and  service  providers  available  to
fabricate and/or construct the trucks and equipment used in its hot oiling, frac heating, and acid related services.

Patents, Trademarks, Licenses, Franchises, Concessions, Royalty Agreements or Labor Contracts

Enservco (through Heat Waves and Dillco) enters into agreements with local property owners where its disposal wells are located
by which the Company generally agrees to pay those property owners a fixed amount per month plus a percentage of revenues derived
from utilizing those wells.  The terms of these agreements are separately negotiated with the given property owner, and during its 2010
fiscal  year  the  total  amount  paid  under  these  various  agreements  by  the  Company  was  immaterial  to  the  Company  and  its  business
operations.

The  Company  has  filed  for  federal  registration  (through  the  United  States  Patent  and  Trademark  Office)  of  “Enservco”  as  a

trademark.

Government Regulation

Enservco (as a result of Heat Waves’ and Dillco’s business operations) is subject to a variety of government regulations ranging
from environmental to OSHA to the Department of Transportation.  The Company does not believe that it is in material violation of any
regulations that would have a significant negative impact on Enservco’s operations.

Through the routine course of providing services, Enservco (through Heat Waves and Dillco) handles and stores bulk quantities of
hazardous materials. If leaks or spills of hazardous materials handled, transported or stored by us occur, Enservco may be responsible
under applicable environmental laws for costs of remediating any damage to the surface or sub-surface (including aquifers).  Heat Waves’
and Dillco’s operations are subject to stringent federal, state and local laws regulating the discharge of materials into the environment or
otherwise  relating  to  health  and  safety  or  the  protection  of  the  environment.    Numerous  governmental  agencies,  such  as  the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, commonly referred to as the “EPA,” issue regulations to implement and enforce these laws, which
often require difficult and costly compliance measures.  Failure to comply with these laws and regulations may result in the assessment of
substantial administrative, civil and criminal penalties, as well as the issuance of injunctions limiting or prohibiting activities. In addition,
some  laws  and  regulations  relating  to  the  protection  of  the  environment  may,  in  certain  circumstances,  impose  strict  liability  for
environmental contamination, rendering a person liable for environmental damages and cleanup costs without regard to negligence or fault
on the part of that person. Strict adherence with these regulatory requirements increases our cost of doing business and consequently
affects our profitability.  Enservco believes that it is in substantial compliance with current applicable environmental laws and regulations
and that continued compliance with existing requirements will not have a material adverse impact on the Company’s operations. However,
environmental  laws  and  regulations  have  been  subject  to  frequent  changes  over  the  years,  and  the  imposition  of  more  stringent
requirements could have a materially adverse effect upon Enservco’s capital expenditures, earnings or our competitive position.

The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”), also known as “Superfund,” imposes
liability  without  regard  to  fault  or  the  legality  of  the  original  conduct,  on  certain  classes  of  persons  who  contributed  to  the  release  of  a
“hazardous substance” into the environment.  In the course of Enserco’s operations (being those of Heat Waves and Dillco), it does not
typically generate materials that are considered “hazardous substances.” One exception, however, would be spills that occur prior to well
treatment materials being circulated down hole. For example, if Heat Weaves or Dillco spills acid on a roadway as a result of a vehicle
accident in the course of providing well enhancement/stimulation services, or if a tank with acid leaks prior to down hole circulation, the
spilled  material  may  be  considered  a  “hazardous  substance.”  In  this  respect,  Enservco  may  occasionally  be  considered  to  “generate”
materials that are regulated as hazardous substances and, as a result, may incur CERCLA liability for cleanup costs. Also, claims may be
filed for personal injury and property damage allegedly caused by the release of hazardous substances or other pollutants.

  Additionally,  the  Company  (through  Heat  Waves  and  Dillco)  operates  facilities  that  are  subject  to  requirements  of  the  Clean
Water Act, as amended, or “CWA,” the Safe Drinking Water Act, and analogous state laws that impose restrictions and controls on the
discharge  of  pollutants  into  navigable  waters.  Spill  prevention,  control  and  counter-measure  requirements  under  the  CWA  require
implementation of measures to help prevent the contamination of navigable waters in the event of a hydrocarbon spill.  Regulations in the
states in which Enservco owns and operates wells (Kansas and Oklahoma) require us to obtain a permit to operate each of our disposal
wells.  The  applicable  regulatory  agency  may  suspend  or  modify  one  of  our  permits  if  Enservco’s  well  operations  are  likely  to  result  in
pollution of freshwater, substantial violation of permit conditions or applicable rules, or if the well leaks into the environment.

Because  Heat  Waves’  and  Dillco’s  trucks  travel  over  public  highways  to  get  to  customer’s  wells,  Enservco  is  subject  to  the
regulations of the Department of Transportation.  These regulations are very comprehensive and cover a wide variety of subjects from the
maintenance and operation of vehicles to driver qualifications to safety.  Violations of these regulations can result in penalties ranging from
monetary fines to a restriction on the use of the vehicles.  Under regulations effective July 1, 2010, the continued violation of regulations
could result in a shutdown of all of the vehicles of either Dillco or Heat Waves.  Enservco does not believe it is in significant violation of
Department of Transportation regulations at this time that would result in a shutdown of vehicles.

Employees

As  of  March  15,  2011,  Enservco  employed  approximately  120  full  time  employees.    Of  these  employees,  3  are  employed  by

Enservco Corporation, approximately 41 by Dillco, and approximately 76 by Heat Waves.

ITEM 1A.  RISK FACTORS

Enservco’s  securities  are  highly  speculative  and  involve  a  high  degree  of  risk,  including  among  other  items  the  risk  factors
described below.   The below risk factors are intended to generally describe certain risks that could materially affect the Company and its
current business operations and activities.

You should carefully consider the risks described below and elsewhere herein in connection with any decision whether to acquire,
hold  or  sell  the  Company’s  securities.    If  any  of  the  contingencies  discussed  in  the  following  paragraphs  or  other  materially  adverse
events  actually  occurs,  the  business,  financial  condition  and  results  of  operations  could  be  materially  and  adversely  affected.    In  such
case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you could lose all or a significant part of your investment.

Operations Related Risks

Our business depends on domestic spending by the oil and natural gas industry, and our business has been, and may

continue to be, adversely affected by industry and financial market conditions that are beyond our control.

We  depend  on  our  customers’  willingness  to  make  operating  and  capital  expenditures  to  explore,  develop  and  produce  oil  and
natural  gas  in  the  United  States.  Customers’  expectations  for  lower  market  prices  for  oil  and  natural  gas,  as  well  as  the  availability  of
capital  for  operating  and  capital  expenditures,  may  cause  them  to  curtail  spending,  thereby  reducing  demand  for  our  services  and
equipment.  As an example, Enservco believes the weak global economy and decrease in demand for oil and natural gas during much of
2009  significantly  contributed  to  the  Company’s  net  loss  of  approximately  $5.9  million  in  fiscal  2009.    On  the  other  hand,  the  generally
improving economic conditions and increasing activity in the oil and gas industry in late 2010 has likely benefitted Enservco.

Industry conditions are influenced by numerous factors over which Enservco has no control, such as the supply of and demand
for  oil  and  natural  gas,  domestic  and  worldwide  economic  conditions,  weather  conditions,  political  instability  in  oil  and  natural  gas
producing  countries  (such  as  currently  occurring  in  the  Middle  East),  and  merger  and  divestiture  activity  among  oil  and  natural  gas
producers.  The  volatility  of  the  oil  and  natural  gas  industry  and  the  consequent  impact  on  exploration  and  production  activity  could
adversely  impact  the  level  of  drilling  and  activity  by  some  of  our customers.  This  reduction  may  cause  a  decline  in  the  demand  for
Enservco’s services or adversely affect the price of its services. In addition, reduced discovery rates of new oil and  natural gas reserves
in Enservco’s market areas also may have a negative long-term impact on its business, even in an environment of stronger oil and natural
gas prices, to the extent existing production is not replaced and the number of producing wells for Enservco to service declines.

On-going volatility and uncertainty in the global economic environment has caused the oilfield services industry to experience

volatility in terms of demand, and the rate at which demand may slow, or return to former levels, is uncertain. At times the recent volatility
in prices for oil and natural gas has led many oil and natural gas producers to announce reductions in their capital budgets for certain
periods. Limitations on the availability of capital, or higher costs of capital, for financing expenditures may cause these and other oil
and  natural gas producers to make on-going or additional reductions to capital budgets in the future even if commodity prices increase
from current levels. These cuts in spending will curtail drilling programs as well as discretionary spending on well services, which may
result in a reduction in the demand for Enservco’s services, the rates we can charge and our utilization. In addition, certain of Enservco’s
customers could become unable to pay their suppliers, including Enservco. Any of these conditions or events could adversely affect our
operating results.

If oil and natural gas prices remain volatile it could have an adverse effect on the demand for our services.

The demand for many of our services is primarily determined by current and anticipated oil and natural gas prices, and the related

general production spending and level of drilling activity in the areas in which we have operations.

Prices for oil and natural gas historically have been extremely volatile and likely will continue to be volatile. Volatility or weakness
in oil and natural gas prices (or the perception that oil and natural gas prices will decrease) affects the spending patterns of our customers
and may result in the drilling of fewer new wells or lower production spending on existing wells. This, in turn, could result in lower demand
for our services and may cause lower rates and lower utilization of Enservco’s well service equipment.

Demand for the majority of our services is substantially dependent on the levels of expenditures by the domestic oil and
natural gas industry. Enservco has no influence over its customers’ capital expenditures.  On-going economic volatility could
have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Demand for the majority of our services depends substantially on the level of expenditures by participants in the domestic (United
States) oil and natural gas industry for the exploration, development and production of oil and natural gas reserves. These expenditures
are sensitive to the industry’s view of future economic growth in the United States and elsewhere, and the resulting impact on demand for
oil and natural gas. The worldwide deterioration in the financial and credit markets, which began in the second half of 2008, resulted in
diminished demand for oil and natural gas and significantly lower oil and natural gas prices during 2009 and at least the first half of 2010.
This caused many of our customers to reduce or delay their oil and natural gas exploration and production spending in 2009 and the first
half of 2010, which consequently reduced their demand for our services, and exerted downward pressure on the prices that we charged
for our services and products. Other worldwide political events may result in higher or lower prices for oil and natural gas and impact the
demand for our services.

Furthermore,  increasing  oil  and  natural  gas  prices  can  lead  to  increasing  costs  of  exploring  for  and  producing  oil  and  natural
gas.  The price of drill rigs, pipe, other equipment, fluids, and oil field services and the cost to companies like Enservco of providing those
services  generally  increase  with  significant  increases  in  oil  and  natural  gas  prices.    The  resulting  reduction  in  cash  flows  being
experienced  by  our  customers  during  the  past  years,  together  with  the  reduced  availability  of  credit  and  increased  costs  of  borrowing
funds could have significant adverse effects on the financial condition of some of our customers. This could result in project modifications,
delays  or  cancellations,  general  business  disruptions,  and  delay  in,  or  nonpayment  of,  amounts  that  are  owed  to  the  Company,  which
could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Environmental compliance costs and liabilities could reduce our earnings and cash available for operations.

We  are  subject  to  increasingly  stringent  laws  and  regulations  relating  to  importation  and  use  of  hazardous  materials  and
environmental  protection,  including  laws  and  regulations  governing  air  emissions,  water  discharges  and  waste  management.  We  incur,
and  expect  to  continue  to  incur,  capital  and  operating  costs  to  comply  with  environmental  laws  and  regulations.  The  technical
requirements of these laws and regulations are becoming increasingly complex, stringent and expensive to implement. These laws may
provide for “strict liability” for damages to natural resources or threats to public health and safety. Strict liability can render a party liable for
damages without regard to negligence or fault on the part of the party. Some environmental laws provide for joint and several strict liability
for remediation of spills and releases of hazardous substances.

The  Company  uses  hazardous  substances  and  wastes  in  its  operations.    Accordingly,  we  could  become  subject  to  potentially
material liabilities relating to the investigation and cleanup of contaminated properties, and to claims alleging personal injury or property
damage  as  the  result  of  exposures  to,  or  releases  of,  hazardous  substances.  In  addition,  stricter  enforcement  of  existing  laws  and
regulations,  new  laws  and  regulations,  the  discovery  of  previously  unknown  contamination  or  the  imposition  of  new  or  increased
requirements could require Enservco to incur costs or become the basis of new or increased liabilities that could reduce its earnings and
cash available for operations. The Company believes it is currently in substantial compliance with environmental laws and regulations.

Competition within the well services industry may adversely affect our ability to market our services.

The well services industry is highly competitive and fragmented and includes numerous small companies capable of competing
effectively  in  our  markets  on  a  local  basis,  as  well  as  several  large  companies  that  possess  substantially  greater  financial  and  other
resources than Enservco. The Company’s larger competitors have greater resources that could allow those competitors to compete more
effectively than can Enservco. The amount of equipment available may exceed demand, which could result in active price competition.

We depend on several significant customers, and a loss of one or more significant customers could adversely affect our

results of operations.

Enservco’s  customers  consist  primarily  of  major  and  independent  oil  and  natural  gas  companies.  During  2010,  only  one  of  the
Company’s customers accounted for more than 10% of consolidated revenues at approximately 13% (all other customers were less than
7% of revenues, individually).  During 2009, there were no customers that accounted for 10% or more of the Company's total revenues.

16

EDGAR Stream is a copyright of Issuer Direct Corporation, all rights reserved.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The Company notes, that though there was only one customer that accounted for more than 10% of revenues during 2010, the
Company’s  top  five  customers  accounted  for  approximately  35%  of  its  total  revenues  during  the  year.    The  loss  of  any  one  of  these
customers or a sustained decrease in demand by any of such customers could result in a substantial loss of revenues and could have a
material adverse effect on Enservco’s results of operations.

While the Company believes its equipment could be redeployed in the current market environment if Dillco and/or Heat Waves
lost  any  material  customers,  such  loss  could  have  an  adverse  effect  on  the  Company’s  business  until  the  equipment  is  redeployed.
Except as discussed in the preceding sentences, we believe that the market for Enservco’s services is sufficiently diversified that it is not
dependent on any single customer or a few major customers.

Our operations are subject to inherent risks, some of which are beyond our control. These risks may be self-insured, or

may not be fully covered under our insurance policies but, to the extent not covered, are self-insured by Enservco.

Our  operations  are  subject  to  hazards  inherent  in  the  oil  and  natural  gas  industry,  such  as,  but  not  limited  to,  accidents,  blowouts,
explosions, fires and oil spills. These conditions can cause:

§

§

§

Personal injury or loss of life,

Damage to or destruction of property, equipment and the environment, and

Suspension of operations by our customers.

The occurrence of a significant event or adverse claim in excess of the insurance coverage that we maintain or that is not covered
by insurance could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, claims for loss of oil and
natural gas production and damage to formations can occur in the well services industry. Litigation arising from a catastrophic occurrence
at a location where our equipment and services are being used may result in our being named as a defendant in lawsuits asserting large
claims.

The Company maintains insurance coverage that we believe to be customary in the industry against these hazards. However, we
do not have insurance against all foreseeable risks, either because insurance is not available or because of the high premium costs. As
such,  not  all  of  our  property  is  insured.    The  occurrence  of  an  event  not  fully  insured  against,  or  the  failure  of  an  insurer  to  meet  its
insurance obligations, could result in substantial losses. In addition, we may not be able to maintain adequate insurance in the future at
rates it considers reasonable. Insurance may not be available to cover any or all of the risks to which we are subject, or, even if available,
it may be inadequate, or insurance premiums or other costs could rise significantly in the future so as to make such insurance prohibitively
expensive.  It is likely that, in our insurance renewals, our premiums and deductibles will be higher, and certain insurance coverage either
will be unavailable or considerably more expensive than it has been in the recent past. In addition, our insurance is subject to coverage
limits, and some policies exclude coverage for damages resulting from environmental contamination.

We may not be successful in identifying, making and integrating our acquisitions, if any, in the future.

We anticipate that a component of our growth strategy may be to make geographic-focused acquisitions aimed to strengthen our
presence in selected regional markets.  Pursuit of this strategy may be restricted by the on-going volatility and uncertainty within the credit
markets  which  may  significantly  limit  the  availability  of  funds  for  such  acquisitions.    In  addition  to  restricted  funding  availability,  the
success of this strategy will depend on our ability to identify suitable acquisition candidates and to negotiate acceptable financial and other
terms. There is no assurance that we will be able to do so. The success of an acquisition depends on our ability to perform adequate due
diligence before the acquisition and on our ability to integrate the acquisition after it is completed.  While the Company intends to commit
significant  resources  to  ensure  that  it  conducts  comprehensive  due  diligence,  there  can  be  no  assurance  that  all  potential  risks  and
liabilities  will  be  identified  in  connection  with  an  acquisition.  Similarly,  while  we  expect  to  commit  substantial  resources,  including
management  time  and  effort,  to  integrating  acquired  businesses  into  ours,  there  is  no  assurance  that  we  will  be  successful  integrating
these  businesses.  In  particular,  it  is  important  that  the  Company  be  able  to  retain  both  key  personnel  of  the  acquired  business  and  its
customer base. A loss of either key personnel or customers could negatively impact the future operating results of any acquired business.

Compliance with climate change legislation or initiatives could negatively impact our business.

The  U.S.  Congress  has  considered  legislation  to  mandate  reductions  of  greenhouse  gas  emissions  and  certain  states  have
already implemented, or may be in the process of implementing, similar legislation. Additionally, the U.S. Supreme Court has held in its
decisions that carbon dioxide can be regulated as an “air pollutant” under the Clean Air Act, which could result in future regulations even if
the  U.S.  Congress  does  not  adopt  new  legislation  regarding  emissions.  At  this  time,  it  is  not  possible  to  predict  how  legislation  or  new
federal or state government mandates regarding the emission of greenhouse gases could impact our business; however, any such future
laws  or  regulations  could  require  us  or  our  customers  to  devote  potentially  material  amounts  of  capital  or  other  resources  in  order  to
comply with such regulations. These expenditures could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations,
or cash flows.

Our  success  depends  on  key  members  of  our  management,  the  loss  of  any  of  whom  could  disrupt  our  business

operations.

We depend to a large extent on the services of certain of our executive officers. The loss of the services of Michael D. Herman or
Rick  D.  Kasch  and/or  Austin  Peitz,  or  other  key  personnel,  could  disrupt  our  operations.  Although  we  have  entered  into  employment
agreements with Messrs. Herman, Kasch and Peitz, that contain, among other things non-compete and confidentiality provisions, we may
not be able to enforce the non-compete and/or confidentiality provisions in the employment agreements.

Debt Related Risks

Our indebtedness, which is currently collateralized by substantially all of our assets, could restrict our operations and

make us more vulnerable to adverse economic conditions.

We  currently  have  a  significant  amount  of  indebtedness.  As  of  December  31,  2010,  the  Company  owed  approximately  $11.8
million to banks and financial institutions (a significant portion of which has been guaranteed by Enservco as Dillco’s parent corporation),
with another $1.05 million due through a revolving letter of credit and another $1.7 million of subordinated debt to Mr. Herman, (the largest
individual stockholder of the Company).

18

Our current and future indebtedness could have important consequences. For example, it could:

§

§

§

§

§

Impair our ability to make investments and obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions
or other general corporate purposes,

Limit our ability to use operating cash flow in other areas of our business because we must dedicate a substantial portion of
these funds to make principal and interest payments on our indebtedness,

Make us more vulnerable to a downturn in our business, our industry or the economy in general as a substantial portion of
our  operating  cash  flow  will  be  required  to  make  principal  and  interest  payments  on  our  indebtedness,  making  it  more
difficult to react to changes in our business and in industry and market conditions,

Put us at a competitive disadvantage to competitors that have less debt, and

Increase our vulnerability to interest rate increases to the extent that we incur variable rate indebtedness.

If  we  are  unable  to  generate  sufficient  cash  flow  or  are  otherwise  unable  to  obtain  the  funds  required  to  make  principal  and
interest  payments  on  our  indebtedness,  or  if  we  otherwise  fail  to  comply  with  the  various  debt  service  covenants  and/or  reporting
covenants in the business loan agreements or other instruments governing our current or any future indebtedness, we could be in default
under the terms of our credit facilities or such other instruments.  In the event of a default, the holders of our indebtedness could elect to
declare  all  the  funds  borrowed  under  those  instruments  to  be  due  and  payable  together  with  accrued  and  unpaid  interest,  the  lenders
under our credit facility could elect to terminate their commitments there under and we or one or more of our subsidiaries could be forced
into bankruptcy or liquidation. Any of the foregoing consequences could restrict our ability to grow our business and cause the value of our
common stock to decline.

We  may  be  unable  to  meet  the  obligations  of  various  financial  covenants  that  are  contained  in  the  terms  of  our  loan

agreements with Great Western Bank.

Dillco’s  agreements  with  Great  Western  Bank  impose  various  obligations  and  financial  covenants  on  Dillco,  each  of  which
Enservco (as the parent corporation) has guaranteed.  The outstanding amount under a line of credit with Great Western Bank is due in
full in May 2011 unless it is renewed on a year-to-year basis.  Additionally, the term loan with Great Western Bank requires that Dillco
make a $1.0 million payment on or before June 2, 2011.  Both of these loans with Great Western Bank have a variable interest rate, are
guaranteed by Enservco (as the parent corporation) and each of its subsidiaries, and are collateralized by substantially all of Dillco’s and
Heat Waves’ equipment, inventory and accounts receivable.  Further, the related agreements with Great Western and the bank impose
various financial covenants on Dillco including maintaining a prescribed debt service ratio, minimum net worth, maximum leverage ratio,
and limit the Company’s ability to incur additional debt obligations.  If Dillco is unable to comply with its obligations and covenants under
the  loan  agreements  and  it  declares  an  event  of  default  all  of  Dillco’s  obligations  to  Great  Western  Bank  could  be  immediately
due.    Because  Enservco  (as  the  parent  corporation)  guaranteed  Dillco’s  debt  to  Great  Western  Bank  any  default  by  Dillco  on  its
obligations to Great Western would likely directly impact Enservco.

The  agreements  between  Dillco  and  its  primary  lender  contain  cross  default  provisions  with  the  debt  of  our  principal

stockholder, Michael D. Herman.

Michael D. Herman is our principal stockholder, a director, and chief executive officer.  Before closing of the Merger Transaction,
Mr. Herman controlled Dillco and its affiliated entities, and had various personal and unrelated business loans with Great Western Bank
and its predecessor lenders. When the Company negotiated its loan agreements with Great Western Bank, the bank insisted that they
contain cross default provisions so that a default by Mr. Herman on his personal indebtedness with Great Western Bank would constitute
a default on Great Western’s loans to Dillco.  As a result of these cross-default provisions, should Mr. Herman default on any of the other
debt he has through the bank in his personal capacity, the bank could declare Dillco’s loans in default and call upon Enservco’s guarantee
with respect to Dillco’s loans (but not Mr. Herman’s separate obligations).  Upon an event of default by Mr. Herman, Dillco might not be
able  to  immediately  satisfy  its  obligations  to  Great  Western  Bank  which  would  likely  adversely  impair  Enservco’s  ability  to  conduct  its
business operations and pay its other obligations necessary to maintain its business operations.

The  variable  rate  indebtedness  with  Great  Western  Bank  subjects  us  to  interest  rate  risk,  which  could  cause  our  debt

service obligations to increase significantly.

Dillco’s borrowings through Great Western Bank bear interest at variable rates, exposing the Company to interest rate risk. Absent
our  ability  to  hedge  our  variable  rates,  if  such  rates  increase,  Dillco’s  debt  service  obligations  on  the  variable  rate  indebtedness  would
increase even though the amount borrowed remained the same and the Company’s net income and cash available for servicing Dillco’s
indebtedness would decrease.

Risks Related to Our Common Stock

It  is  likely  that  any  efforts  we  may  make  to  raise  capital  or  effect  a  business  transaction  will  result  in  substantial  additional
dilution to our stockholders.

As  part  of  our  growth  strategy  we  may  desire  to  raise  capital  and  or  utilize  its  common  stock  to  effect  strategic  business
transactions.    Either  such  action  will  likely  require  that  we  issue  equity  (or  debt)  securities  which  would  result  in  dilution  to  our  existing
stockholders.  Although we will attempt to minimize the dilutive impact of any future capital-raising activities or business transactions, we
cannot offer any assurance that we will be able to do so.  If we are successful in raising additional working capital, we may have to issue
additional shares of our common stock at prices at a discount from the then-current market price of our common stock.

The majority of our common stock is currently considered restricted stock and our common stock is not currently

eligible to be resold pursuant to Rule 144.

A  significant  portion  of  our  outstanding  common  stock  was  issued  to  our  principal  stockholders  in  July  2010  as  “restricted  securities”
under  Rule  144  under  the  Securities  Act.    Aspen  issued  these  shares  to  Mr.  &  Mrs.  Herman  and  Mr.  Kasch  in  consideration  for  their
interests in Dillco.  As a former shell company, to the extent that any person holds restricted securities of Enservco or otherwise must rely
on Rule 144 for resale, Rule 144(i) imposes additional restrictions on the ability of any holder to utilize the exemption from registration for
sales contained in Rule 144.

Because we have no plans to pay dividends on our common stock, investors must look solely to stock appreciation for

a return on their investment in us.

We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain all
future earnings to fund the development and growth of our business. Any payment of future dividends will be at the discretion of our board
of  directors  and  will  depend  on,  among  other  things,  our  earnings,  financial  condition,  capital  requirements,  level  of  indebtedness,
statutory  and  contractual  restrictions  applying  to  the  payment  of  dividends  and  other  considerations  that  the  board  of  directors  deems
relevant.  The  terms  of  Dillco’s  existing  senior  credit  facility  restrict  the  payment  of  dividends  without  the  prior  written  consent  of  the
lenders.  Investors must rely on sales of their common stock after price appreciation, which may never occur, as the only way to realize a
return on their investment.  Investors seeking cash dividends should not purchase our common stock.

Our common stock is subject to the penny stock rules which limits the market for our common stock.

Because our stock is not quoted on an exchange and since the market price of the common stock is less than $5.00 per share,
the common stock is classified as a “penny stock.” SEC Rule 15g-9 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “1934 Act”) imposes
additional  sales  practice  requirements  on  broker-dealers  that  recommend  the  purchase  or  sale  of  penny  stocks  to  persons  other  than
those who qualify as an “established customer” or an “accredited investor.”  This includes the requirement that a broker-dealer must make
a  determination  that  investments  in  penny  stocks  are  suitable  for  the  customer  and  must  make  special  disclosures  to  the  customers
concerning  the  risk  of  penny  stocks.    Many  broker-dealers  decline  to  participate  in  penny  stock  transactions  because  of  the  extra
requirements imposed on penny stock transactions.  Application of the penny stock rules to our common stock reduces the market liquidity
of our shares, which in turn affects the ability of holders of our common stock to resell the shares they purchase, and they may not be able
to resell at prices at or above the prices they paid.

General Corporate Risks

Indemnification of officers and directors may result in unanticipated expenses.

The  Delaware  General  Corporation  Law  and  our  Amended  and  Restated  Certificate  of  Incorporation  and  bylaws  provide  for  the
indemnification of our directors, officers, employees, and agents, under certain circumstances, against attorney’s fees and other expenses
incurred by them in any litigation to which they become a party arising from their association with us or activities on our behalf.  We also
will  bear  the  expenses  of  such  litigation  for  any  of  their  directors,  officers, employees,  or  agents,  upon  such  person’s  promise  to  repay
them if it is ultimately determined that any such person shall not have been entitled to indemnification.  This indemnification policy could
result in substantial expenditures by us that we may be unable to recoup and could direct funds away from our business and products (if
any).

21

We have significant obligations under the 1934 Act.

Because  we  are  a  public  company  filing  reports  under  the  Securities  Exchange  Act  of  1934  Act,  we  are  subject  to  increased
regulatory scrutiny and extensive and complex regulation.  The Securities and Exchange Commission has the right to review the accuracy
and completeness of our reports, press releases, and other public documents.  In addition, we are subject to extensive requirements to
institute  and  maintain  financial  accounting  controls  and  for  the  accuracy  and  completeness  of  our  books  and  records.    Normally  these
activities are overseen by an audit committee consisting of qualified independent directors.  A majority of our Board of Directors currently
does  not  consist  of  directors  that  are  considered  “independent.”    Consequently,  the  protections  normally  provided  to  stockholders  by
boards of directors comprised by a majority of persons considered “independent” directors are not available.  Although we hope to appoint
qualified  independent  directors  in  the  future  should  we  enter  into  a  business  combination  or  acquire  a  business,  we  cannot  offer  any
assurance that we will locate any person willing to serve in that capacity.

Forward-looking statements may prove to be inaccurate.

In  our  effort  to  make  the  information  in  this  report  more  meaningful,  this  report  contains  both  historical  and  forward-looking
statements.  All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements within the meanings of Section 27A of
the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the 1934 Act.  Forward-looking statements in this report are not based on historical facts,
but rather reflect the current expectations of our management concerning future results and events.  It should be noted that because we
are a “penny stock,” the protections provided by Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, and Section 21E of the 1934 Act do not apply
to  us.    We  have  attempted  to  qualify  our  forward-looking  statements  with  appropriate  cautionary  language  to  take  advantage  of  the
judicially-created doctrine of “bespeaks caution” and other protections.

Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results,
performance  and  achievements  to  be  different  from  any  future  results,  performance  and  achievements  expressed  or  implied  by  these
statements.  These factors are not necessarily all of the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those
expressed in the forward-looking statements in this prospectus.  Other unknown or unpredictable factors also could have material adverse
effects on our future results.

Risk of change of control.

Mr.  Herman  directly  and  indirectly  owns  approximately  60%  of  the  Company’s  outstanding  common  stock.    Mr.  Herman  has
significant personal indebtedness to Great Western Bank, also the Company’s principal lender.  Mr. Herman has granted Great Western
Bank a blanket lien on his personal assets.  Therefore, should Mr. Herman default on his personal indebtedness to the Bank, the Bank
may institute a collection action which could result in the transfer of Mr. Herman’s interest in Enservco to the Bank – which transfer would
result in a change of control.

Concentration of ownership in Mr. Herman makes it unlikely that any stockholder will be able to influence the election of

directors or engage in a change of control transaction.

Because Mr. Herman directly and indirectly owns approximately 60% of the Company’s outstanding common stock, he has the
ability to elect all of our directors when they again stand for reelection.  Furthermore, no person seeking control of Enservco through stock
ownership will be able to succeed in doing so without negotiating an arrangement to do so with Mr. Herman.  For so long as Mr. Herman
continues  to  own  a  significant  percentage  of  the  outstanding  shares  of  Enservco  common  stock,  he  will  retain  such  control  over  the
election of the board of directors and the negotiation of any change of control transaction.

Provisions in our charter documents could prevent or delay a change in control or a takeover.

Provisions  in  our  bylaws  provide  certain  requirements  for  the  nomination  of  directors  which  preclude  a  stockholder  from
nominating a candidate to stand for election at any annual meeting.  As described in Section 2.12 of the Company’s bylaws, nominations
must be presented to the Company well in advance of a scheduled annual meeting, and the notification must include specific information
as  set  forth  in  that  section.    The  Company  believes  that  such  a  provision  provides  reasonable  notice  of  the  nominees  to  the  board  of
directors, but it may preclude stockholder nomination at a meeting where the stockholder is not familiar with nomination procedures and,
therefore, may prevent or delay a change of control or takeover.

Although the Delaware General Corporation Law includes §112 which provides that bylaws of Delaware corporations may require
the corporation to include in its proxy materials one or more nominees submitted by stockholders in addition to individuals nominated by
the board of directors, the bylaws of Enservco do not so provide.  As a result, if any stockholder desires to nominate persons for election
to the board of directors, the proponent will have to incur all of the costs normally associated with a contested proxy contest and then,
because of Mr. Herman’s controlling ownership, will likely not be able to succeed in its endeavor.

The  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission  recently  adopted  rules  that  are  also  intended  to  help  stockholders  nominees  for
election, but it is not currently clear when or if these rules will become effective.  Therefore, stockholders who desire to nominate directors
may not be able to take advantage of certain newly enacted (or contemplated) statutes and regulations that are aimed to help stockholder
nominees be elected to boards of directors, which is another factor that may delay or prevent a change of control or a takeover.

Market Information:

Our common stock is quoted on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”) and the OTCQX under the symbol “ENSV.” Prior
to January 4, 2011 our common stock was quoted under symbol “ASPN”.   The rules of both market places provide that companies not
current in their reporting requirements under the 1934 Act will be removed from the quotation service.  At present and at December 31,
2010 we believe we were in full compliance with these rules.

The  table  below  sets  forth  the  high  and  low  closing  prices  of  the  Company’s  Common  Stock  during  the  periods  indicated  as
reported by the Internet source Yahoo Finance (http://finance.yahoo.com).  The quotations reflect inter-dealer prices without retail mark-
up,  mark-down  or  commission  and  may  not  reflect  actual  transactions.    As  noted  previously  in  this  Form  10-K  the  Merger  Transaction
closed on July 27, 2010 and the terms of the Merger Transaction were first announced on or about June 24, 2010.  Therefore, the prices
below also include prices solely with respect to Aspen before the Merger Transaction.

On November 2, 2009, and prior to the acquisition of Dillco, Aspen declared a cash dividend in the amount of $0.73 per share.
The dividend was paid to stockholders of record on December 2, 2009. The distribution followed the final settlement of the sale of Aspen’s
oil and natural gas assets to Venoco, Inc.

Decisions concerning dividend payments in the future will depend on income and cash requirements.  However, in its agreements
with Great Western Bank the Company represented that it would not pay any cash dividends on its common stock until its obligations to
Great  Western  are  satisfied.  Furthermore,  to  the  extent  Enservco  has  any  earnings,  it  will  likely  retain  earnings  to  expand  corporate
operations and not use such earnings to pay dividends.

Description of the 2008 Equity Plan

On February 27, 2008 Aspen’s Board of Directors adopted the 2008 Equity Plan (the “2008 Plan”).  One million shares of common
stock  were  initially  reserved  for  the  grant  of  stock  options  or  issuance  of  stock  bonuses  under  the  2008  Plan.    The  2008  Plan  was  not
approved by Aspen’s stockholders and therefore none of the options granted under the 2008 Plan qualify as incentive stock options under
Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code. The exercise period for options granted under the Plan did not exceed ten years from the date
of grant. The 2008 Plan provides that an option may be exercised through the payment of cash, in accordance with the Plan’s cashless
exercise  provision,  or  in  property  or  in  a  combination  of  cash,  shares  and  property.    On  July  27,  2010,  the  2008  Plan  was  terminated
although  persons  holding  vested  options  under  the  2008  Plan  will  continue  to  hold  those  options  in  accordance  with  the  terms  of  their
contractual  agreement(s).      Thus,  upon  closing  the  Merger  Transaction  the  Company  assumed  certain  obligations  with  respect  to  the
2008 Plan.

Description of the 2010 Stock Incentive Plan

On  July  27,  2010  the  Company’s  Board  of  Directors  adopted  the  2010  Stock  Incentive  Plan  (the  “2010  Plan”).    The  2010  Plan
permits  the  granting  of  equity-based  awards  to  our  directors,  officers,  employees,  consultants,  independent  contractors  and
affiliates.    Equity-based  awards  are  intended  to  determined  by  a  compensation  committee  (or,  in  the  absence  of  a  compensation
committee,  the  Board  of  Directors  and  in  either  case  referred  to  herein  as  the  “Committee”)  and  are  granted  only  in  compliance  with
applicable laws and regulatory policy.

Although  the  adoption  of  the  2010  Plan  was  not  contingent  upon  the  Company  receiving  stockholder  approval  of  the  plan,  the
Company’s stockholders approved the adoption of the 2010 Plan on or about October 20, 2010.  The stockholders’ approval of the 2010
Plan  permits  the  issuance  of  options  that  qualify  as  Incentive  Stock  Options  pursuant  to  Section  422  of  the  Internal  Revenue  Code  of
1986, as amended (the “Code”).

Administration.  The Committee administers the 2010 Plan and has the full power and authority to determine when and to whom
awards  will  be  granted,  and  the  type,  amount,  form  of  payment  and  other  terms  and  conditions  of  each  award,  consistent  with  the
provisions of the 2010 Plan. In addition, the Committee can specify whether, and under what circumstances, awards to be received under
the 2010 Plan or amounts payable under such awards may be deferred automatically or at the election of either the holder of the award or
the Committee.  Subject to the provisions of the 2010 Plan, the Committee may amend or waive the terms and conditions, or accelerate
the exercisability, of an outstanding award. The Committee has the authority to interpret the 2010 Plan and establish rules and regulations
for the administration of the 2010 Plan.

The Committee may delegate its powers and duties under the 2010 Plan to one or more directors (including a director who is also
an officer of the Company), except that it may not delegate its powers to grant awards to executive officers or directors who are subject to
Section 16 of the 1934 Act, or to act in a way that would violate Section 162(m) of the Code.  In addition, the Committee may authorize
one or more Company officers to grant stock options under the 2010 Plan, provided that stock option awards made by those officers may
not be made to executive officers or directors who are subject to Section 16 of the 1934 Act or subject to Section 162(m) of the Code. The
Board may also exercise the powers of the Committee at any time, so long as its actions would not violate Section 162(m) of the Code.

Members of the Committee are not liable for actions or determinations made under the 2010 Plan if such actions or determinations

are made in good faith.

Eligible Participants.  Any employee, officer, consultant, independent contractor or director providing services to the Company or

any of its affiliates, who is selected by the Committee, is eligible to receive an award under the 2010 Plan.

Shares Available For Awards.  The aggregate number of shares of our common stock that may be issued through December 31,
2011 under all equity-based awards made under the 2010 Plan is 3,500,000 shares of common stock.  Beginning on January 1, 2012 and
on January 1 of each subsequent year that the 2010 Plan is in effect, the aggregate number of Shares that may be issued under the 2010
Plan shall be automatically adjusted to equal 15% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock, calculated as of
January 1 of the respective year.  This aggregate amount is subject to further limitations, as follows:

▪ Through December 31, 2011, a maximum of 3,500,000 shares will be available for granting incentive stock options under the 2010

Plan, subject to the provisions of Section 422 or 424 of the Code or any successor provision;

▪ On January 1 of each subsequent year, a maximum of 15% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock, calculated as
of  January  1  of  the  respective  year,  will  be  available  for  granting  incentive  stock  options  under  the  2010  Plan,  subject  to  the
provisions of Section 422 or 424 of the Code or any successor provision; and

▪ The maximum number of shares that may be awarded under the 2010 Plan pursuant to grants of restricted stock, restricted stock

units and stock awards will be 2,000,000.

The  Committee  may  adjust  the  number  of  shares  and  share  limits  described  above  in  the  case  of  a  stock  dividend  or  other
distribution, including a stock split, merger or other similar corporate transaction or event, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the
benefits or potential benefits intended to be provided under the 2010 Plan.

Shares which are tendered for payment or which satisfy the tax withholding obligation with respect to an award become available
for reissuance under the 2010 Plan.  If an award is terminated without the issuance of any shares or if shares covered by an award are
not purchased or are forfeited, the shares previously set aside for such award will be available for future awards under the 2010 Plan.  If
an award is payable only in cash and does not entitle the holder to receive or purchase shares, then the award will not be counted against
the aggregate number of shares available under the 2010 Plan.

Types of Awards and Terms and Conditions

The 2010 Plan permits the granting of:

Stock options (including both incentive and non-qualified stock options); 
Stock appreciation rights (“SARs”);

•
•
• Restricted stock and restricted stock units;
•
• Other stock grants; and
• Other stock-based awards.

Performance awards of cash, stock, other securities or property;

Awards may be granted alone, in addition to, in combination with, or in substitution for, any other award granted under the 2010
Plan or any other compensation plan. Awards can be granted for no cash consideration or for any cash or other consideration as may be
determined by the Committee or as required by applicable law. Awards may provide that upon the grant or exercise thereof, the holder will
receive cash, shares of our common stock, other securities or property, or any combination of these in a single payment, installments or
on a deferred basis. The exercise price per share under any stock option and the grant price of any SAR may not be less than the fair
market value of our common stock on the date of grant of such option or SAR except to satisfy legal requirements of foreign jurisdictions
or  if  the  award  is  in  substitution  for  an  award  previously  granted  by  an  entity  acquired  by  the  Company.    Determinations  of  fair  market
value under the 2010 Plan will be made in accordance with methods and procedures established by the Committee.

Incentive stock options must expire no later than 10 years after the date of grant or, for persons who own more than 10% of the
total voting power of all classes of stock, no later than five years after the date of grant.  The term of all other awards shall be determined
by the Committee.

Stock Options.    The  holder  of  an  option  will  be  entitled  to  purchase  a  number  of  shares  of  our  common  stock  at  a  specified
exercise  price  during  a  specified  time  period,  all  as  determined  by  the  Committee.  The  option  exercise  price  may  be  payable  either  in
cash or, at the discretion of the Committee, in other securities or other property having a fair market value on the exercise date equal to
the exercise price.

Stock Appreciation Rights.    The  holder  of  a  SAR  is  entitled  to  receive  the  excess  of  the  fair  market  value  (calculated  as  of  the
exercise date or, at the Committee’s discretion, as of any time during a specified period before or after the exercise date) of a specified
number of shares of our common stock over the grant price of the SAR.  SARs vest and become exercisable in accordance with a vesting
schedule established by the Committee.

Restricted  Stock  and  Restricted  Stock  Units.  The  holder  of  restricted  stock  will  own  shares  of  our  common  stock  subject  to
restrictions  imposed  by  the  Committee  (including,  for  example,  restrictions  on  the  right  to  vote  the  restricted  shares  or  to  receive  any
dividends  with  respect  to  the  shares)  for  a  specified  time  period  determined  by  the  Committee.  The  holder  of  restricted  stock  units  will
have the right, subject to any restrictions imposed by the Committee, to receive shares of our common stock, or a cash payment equal to
the fair market value of those shares, at some future date determined by the Committee.

Performance Awards. The Committee may grant awards under the 2010 Plan that are intended to qualify as “performance-based
compensation”  within  the  meaning  of  Section  162(m)  of  the  Code.  A  performance  award  may  be  payable  in  cash  or  stock  and  will  be
conditioned solely upon the achievement of one or more objective performance goals established by the Committee in compliance with
Section 162(m) of the Code. Subject to the terms of the 2010 Plan, the performance goals to be achieved during any performance period,
the length of any performance period, the amount of any performance award granted, the amount of any payment or transfer to be made
pursuant  to  any  performance  award  and  any  other  terms  of  and  conditions  of  any  performance  award  shall  be  determined  by  the
Committee.

Stock Awards. The Committee may grant unrestricted shares of our common stock, subject to terms and conditions determined by

the Committee and the limitations in the 2010 Plan.

29

Other Stock-Based Awards. The Committee is also authorized to grant other types of awards that are denominated or payable in,
valued  in  whole  or  in  part  by  reference  to,  or  otherwise  based  on  or  related  to  our  common  stock,  subject  to  terms  and  conditions
determined by the Committee and the limitations in the 2010 Plan.

Duration,  Termination  and  Amendment.  Unless  discontinued  or  terminated  by  the  Board,  the  2010  Plan  will  expire  on  July  27,
2020.  No awards may be made after that date. However, unless otherwise expressly provided in an applicable award agreement, any
award  granted  under  the  2010  Plan  prior  to  expiration  may  extend  beyond  the  expiration  of  the  2010  Plan  through  the  award’s  normal
expiration date.

The Board may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate the 2010 Plan at any time, however, stockholder approval must
be obtained for any action that would increase the number of shares of our common stock available under the 2010 Plan, increase the
award limits under the 2010 Plan, permit awards of options or SARs at a price less than fair market value, permit re-pricing of options or
SARs or cause Section 162(m) of the Code to become unavailable with respect to the 2010 Plan. Stockholder approval is also required for
any  action  that  requires  stockholder  approval  under  the  rules  and  regulations  of  the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission  or  any
securities exchange or the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority that are applicable to the Company.

Prohibition on Re-pricing Awards

Without the approval of the Company’s stockholders, the Committee will not re-price, adjust or amend the exercise price of any
options or the grant price of any SAR previously awarded, whether through amendment, cancellation and replacement grant or any other
means,  except  in  connection  with  a  stock  dividend  or  other  distribution,  including  a  stock  split,  merger  or  other  similar  corporate
transaction  or  event,  in  order  to  prevent  dilution  or  enlargement  of  the  benefits,  or  potential  benefits  intended  to  be  provided  under  the
2010 Plan.

Transferability of Awards

Unless  otherwise  provided  by  the  Committee,  awards  under  the  2010  Plan  may  only  be  transferred  by  will  or  by  the  laws  of

descent and distribution.

Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following is a summary of the principal U.S. federal income tax consequences generally applicable to awards under the 2010
Plan and applies to U.S. citizens and residents who receive awards under the 2010 Plan.  Participants who are neither U.S. citizens nor
residents but who perform services in the United States may also be subject to U.S. federal income tax under some circumstances.  In
addition,  former  citizens  or  long-term  residents  of  the  United  States  may  be  subject  to  special  expatriate  tax  rules,  which  are  not
addressed in this summary.

Grant of Options and SARs.  The grant of a stock option (either an incentive stock option or a non-qualified stock option) or SAR

is not expected to result in any taxable income for the recipient.

Exercise  of  Incentive  Stock  Options.    The  holder  of  an  incentive  stock  option  generally  will  have  no  taxable  income  upon
exercising the option (except that an alternative minimum tax liability may arise).  If stock is issued to the optionee pursuant to the exercise
of an incentive stock option, and if no disqualifying disposition of such shares is made by such award holder within two years after the
date of grant or within one year after the transfer of such shares to such award holder, then:

30

(1)

Upon the sale of such shares, any amount realized in excess of the exercise price will be taxed to such optionee as a
long-term capital gain and any loss sustained will be a long-term capital loss, and

(2)           We will not be entitled to a deduction for federal income tax purposes.

If the stock acquired upon the exercise of an incentive stock option is disposed of prior to the expiration of either holding period

described above, generally:

(a)

(b)

The optionee will realize ordinary income in the year of disposition in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the fair
market  value  of  such  shares  at  exercise  (or,  if  less,  the  amount  realized  on  the  disposition  of  such  shares)  over  the
exercise price paid for such shares, and

We  will  be  entitled  to  deduct  such  amount  for  federal  income  tax  purposes  if  the  amount  represents  an  ordinary  and
necessary business expense.

Any further gain (or loss) realized by the optionee will be taxed as short-term or long-term capital gain (or loss), as the case may be, and
will not result in any deduction by us.

Exercise of Non-Qualified Stock Options and SARs.  Upon exercising a non-qualified stock option, the optionee must recognize
ordinary income equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares of our common stock acquired on the date of exercise over the
exercise price, and we generally will be entitled at that time to an income tax deduction for the same amount.  Upon exercising a SAR, the
amount of any cash received and the fair market value on the exercise date of any shares of our common stock received are taxable to
the recipient as ordinary income and generally are deductible by us.

Disposition of Acquired Shares.  The tax consequence upon a disposition of shares acquired through the exercise of an option or
SAR will depend on how long the shares have been held and whether the shares were acquired by exercising an incentive stock option or
by exercising a non-qualified stock option or SAR.  Generally, there will be no tax consequence to us in connection with the disposition of
shares  acquired  under  an  option  or  SAR,  except  that  we  may  be  entitled  to  an  income  tax  deduction  in  the  case  of  the  disposition  of
shares  acquired  under  an  incentive  stock  option  before  the  applicable  incentive  stock  option  holding  periods  set  forth  in  the  Internal
Revenue Code have been satisfied.

For an award that is payable in shares of our common stock that are restricted as to transferability and subject to substantial risk
of forfeiture, unless a special election is made pursuant  to  Section  83(b)  of  the  Code,  the  holder  of  the  award  must  recognize  ordinary
income equal to the excess of (x) the fair market value of the shares of our common stock received (determined as of the first time the
shares became transferable or not subject to substantial risk of forfeiture, whichever occurs earlier) over (y) the amount (if any) paid for
the shares of our common stock by the holder. The Company will be entitled at that time to a tax deduction for the same amount if and to
the extent that amount satisfies general rules concerning deductibility.

31

Special Rules. Special rules may apply in the case of individuals subject to Section 16(b) of the 1934 Act. In particular, unless a
special election is made pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code, shares of our common stock received pursuant to the exercise of an option
or SAR may be treated as restricted as to transferability and subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture for a period of up to six months after
the date of exercise. Accordingly, the amount of any ordinary income recognized, and the amount of the Company’s tax deduction, may
be determined as of the end of such period.

Deductibility of Executive Compensation Under Code Section 162(m). Section 162(m) of the Code generally limits to $1,000,000
the amount that a publicly-held corporation is allowed each year to deduct for the compensation paid to each of the corporation’s chief
executive  officer  and  the  corporation’s  other  four  most  highly  compensated  executive  officers.  However,  “qualified  performance-based
compensation” is not subject to the $1,000,000 deduction limit. In general, to qualify as performance-based compensation, the following
requirements need to be satisfied:

(1)

(2)

(3)

Payments must be computed on the basis of an objective, performance-based compensation standard determined by a
committee consisting solely of two or more “outside directors,”

The  material  terms  under  which  the  compensation  is  to  be  paid,  including  the  business  criteria  upon  which  the
performance  goals  are  based,  and  a  limit  on  the  maximum  bonus  amount  which  may  be  paid  to  any  participant  with
respect to any performance period, must be approved by a majority of the corporation’s stockholders, and

The  Committee  must  certify  that  the  applicable  performance  goals  were  satisfied  before  payment  of  any  performance-
based compensation, provided certification is not required for compensation attributable solely to the increase in the value
of the Company’s stock.

The  2010  Plan  has  been  designed  to  permit  grants  of  options  and  SARs  issued  under  the  2010  Plan  to  qualify  under  the
performance-based  compensation  rules  so  that  income  attributable  to  the  exercise  of  a  non-qualified  stock  option  or  an  SAR  may  be
exempt from the $1,000,000 deduction limit. Grants of other Awards under the 2010 Plan may not qualify for this exemption. The 2010
Plan’s  provisions  are  consistent  in  form  with  the  performance-based  compensation  rules,  so  that  (consistent  with  Treas.  Reg.  §  1.162-
27(e)(4)(ii)(A)) if the committee that grants options or SARs consists exclusively of members of the Board of Directors of the Company
who qualify as “outside directors,” and the exercise price (or deemed exercise price, with respect to SARs) is not less than the fair market
value of the shares of common stock to which such grants relate, the compensation income arising on exercise of those options or SARs
should  qualify  as  performance-based compensation  which  is  deductible  even  if  that  income  would  be  in  excess  of  the  otherwise
applicable limits on deductible compensation income under Code Section 162(m).

Other Compensation Arrangements

On  July  28,  2010,  Enservco  entered  into  an  agreement  with  an  investor  relations  firm  and  as  part  of  the  compensation  paid
pursuant  to  that  agreement  granted  both  principals  of  the  firm  a  warrant  to  purchase  112,500  shares  each  of  the  Company’s  common
stock; sum of warrants issued equaled 225,000 shares of common stock available for purchase.  The warrants are exercisable at $0.49
per share for a four year term.  Each of the warrants may be exercised on a cash-less basis.  The warrants also provide that subject to
various conditions, the holders have piggy-back registration rights with respect to the shares of common stock that may be acquired upon
the exercise of the warrants.

Company Overview and Overview of the Information Presented

Aspen  was  incorporated  under  the  laws  of  the  State  of  Delaware  on  February  28,  1980  for  the  primary  purpose  of  acquiring,
exploring and developing oil and natural gas and other mineral properties.  Historically, and through its fiscal year ended June 30, 2009,
Aspen  was  engaged  in  a  broad  range  of  activities  associated  with  the  development  of  oil  and  natural  gas  reserves  primarily  in  the
Sacramento Valley in California, and in the East Poplar Field in Montana.

On  June  30,  2009,  Aspen  disposed  of  all  of  its  remaining  oil  and  natural  gas  producing  assets  and  as  a  result  was  no  longer
engaged in active business operations.  On June 24, 2010, Aspen entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization with
Dillco Fluid Service, Inc. (“Dillco”) which set forth the terms by which Dillco became a wholly owned subsidiary of Aspen on July 27, 2010
(the “Merger Transaction”).

Aspen  is  now  operating  its  business  under  the  name  “Enservco  Corporation.”  As  such,  throughout  this  report  the  terms  the
“Company” and/or “Enservco” are intended to refer to the company on a post Merger Transaction basis and as a whole, with respect to
both historical and forward looking contexts.

On  December  30,  2010,  Aspen  changed  its  name  to  “Enservco  Corporation.”  As  such,  throughout  this  report  the  terms  the
“Company” and/or “Enservco” are intended to refer to the company on a post Merger Transaction basis and as a whole, with respect to
both  historical  and  forward  looking  contexts.    As  a  result  of  the  Merger  Transaction,  the  Company’s  fiscal  year  was  modified  to  be  the
calendar year as described below.

Enservco  primarily  conducts  its  business  operations  through  two  subsidiaries:  Dillco  and  Heat  Waves  Hot  Oil  Service  LLC  (“Heat
Waves”).  However, certain assets utilized by Enservco in its business operations are owned by other subsidiary entities.  Dillco and Heat
Waves provide oil field services to the domestic onshore oil and natural gas industry.  These services include pressure testing, hot oiling,
acidizing, frac heating, freshwater and saltwater hauling, fluid disposal, frac tank rental, well site construction and other general oil field
services.  The Company currently operates in:

•
•
•
•
•

southern Kansas and northwestern Oklahoma,
northeastern Utah,
northern New Mexico,
southern Wyoming and Colorado (D-J Basin and Niobrara formation), and
northwestern West Virginia and southwest Pennsylvania in the Marcellus Shale region.

Heat Waves is currently exploring opportunities to provide services in the Bakken formation in North Dakota and the Eagle Ford formation
in southwest and south central Texas.

Going forward the Company expects to continue to pursue its growth strategies of exploring additional acquisitions, potentially expanding
the geographic areas in which it operates, and diversifying the products and services it provides to customers, as well as making further
investments in its assets and equipment.

Accounting Treatment of the Merger

The merger by which Dillco became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Enservco was treated as a “reverse acquisition” for accounting
purposes.  In a reverse acquisition, although Aspen was considered to be the “legal acquirer” (that is, Aspen (now known as Enservco)
survived  as  the  parent  corporation),  Dillco  was  the  “accounting  acquirer”  (that  is  because  Dillco’s  and  its  subsidiaries’  business  was
undeniably  the  more  significant  business).    As  a  result,  Dillco’s  financial  statements  became  the  financial  statements  of  the  surviving
company.  Aspen’s financial condition is additive to Dillco’s financial statements for the period following the Merger Transaction.

35

Dillco’s  fiscal  year  end  is  December  31,  2010  whereas  prior  to  the  Merger  Transaction  Aspen’s  fiscal  year  end  was  June
30.    Because  Dillco  was  the  accounting  acquirer  the  Merger  Transaction  resulted  in  the  Company’s  fiscal  year  end  being  deemed  to
change to December 31.  Thus, starting with its most recent Form 10-Q filed for the quarter ended September 30, 2010, the Company is
now filing annual and quarterly reports based on the December 31 fiscal year end of Dillco rather than the former (pre-acquisition) June
30  fiscal  year  end  of  Aspen.    Although  not  required  to  complete  the  change  of  the  fiscal  year,  more  than  a  majority  of  the  Company’s
stockholders approved that change (as well as a change to the Company’s tax year) by consent.

The financial statements included in this report are for Enservco’s year ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 and include Aspen’s

financial statements only as a result of, and subsequent to, the Merger Transaction.

understanding of its business operations. Enservco only does business in the United States, but in what it believes are three
geographically diverse regions. The following table sets forth revenue information for the Company’s three geographic regions during its
2009 and 2010 fiscal years:

Revenues:

The approximately 20% increase in revenues in 2010 compared to the 2009 period was primarily a result of our closing marginal
locations in 2010 and redeploying assets to initiate operations (fluid management and well enhancement) in the southern region of the
Marcellus Shale formation (southwestern Pennsylvania and northern West Virginia) in December 2009.  It should be noted that except for
our  location  in  the  Rocky  Mountain  region  and  our  Hugoton  Basin  location,  revenues  were  up  for  all  locations  that  we  continue  to
operate.  Management is optimistic that the Rocky Mountain region will rebound to previous levels due to new customers secured in the
first  quarter  of  2011.      The  slight  decline  (6%)  in  water  hauling  revenues  at  our  Hugoton  basin  location  resulted  from  rate  reductions
implemented  in  2009  by  our  competitors  to  capture  market  share.    We  matched  these  reduced  prices  which  resulted  in  the  Company
successfully maintaining our market share and being awarded a new contract worth approximately $1 million for 2011.

The  increase  in  revenue  during  the  2010  fiscal  year  would  likely  have  been  greater,  however  a  decline  in  our  well  site
construction  services  as  a  result  of  the  continuing  decline  in  drilling  new  wells  near  our  Garden  City,  Kansas  location  where  our
construction equipment is located.  We are investigating relocating the construction equipment to other basins where there is potentially
more demand being generated by our customers or possibly selling the equipment.

We believe our operations in the Marcellus Shale region will continue to positively impact revenues in future months.  Although
the demand for certain of the services we provide in the Marcellus Shale region is seasonal, with higher demand during colder months,
the Company believes demand for its water hauling services will not be as cyclical and to the extent improving economic conditions or
other  factors  lead  to  an  increase  in  oil  and  gas  drilling  operations,  our  water  hauling  operations  may  be  increased  as  well.    We  also
believe that our planned expansion of operations in the Niobrara in Wyoming and possible initiation of operations in the Bakken in North
Dakota will have a positive impact on revenues.

Costs of Revenues and Gross Profit:

Gross profit for 2010 more than doubled from 2009.  The primary reason for this improvement in profitability was the impact of

high gross profit margins for the services we provided in the Marcellus Shale region.

In  addition,  the  Company  reduced  the  cost  of  revenues,  as  a  percentage  of  revenues,  and  thereby  increased  gross  profit  by
implementing cost controls during 2009 in response to the industry slowdown.  The full impact of these cost controls was felt in 2010 as
gross profit as a percentage of revenues nearly doubled from 12.3% in 2009 to 22.6% in 2010.  The most significant results of these cost
controls were:

(1)

a reduction in labor costs due to policies enacted restricting overtime and unbillable “shop” time;

(2)

a decrease in worker’s compensation insurance premiums due to a decrease in our experience modification factor arising
from an increased attention to worker safety and therefore a reduction in the number of accidents; and

(3)

a decrease in equipment insurance expenses resulting from renewing policies at lower rates.

The increase in profitability was partially offset by costs we incurred in establishing our operations in the Marcellus Shale region
during our first two fiscal quarters of 2010 which included additional costs for site rental and from importing our frac heater operators from
outside  of  Pennsylvania  since  we  were  not  able  to  identify  local  drivers  experienced  in  operating  frac  heaters.    We  have  initiated  a
significant hiring and training program that will reduce our reliance on non-local drivers going forward.

General and Administrative Expenses:

Our  general  and  administrative  expenses  increased  significantly  for  the  year  ended  December  2010  as  compared  to  the  same
period  in  2009.    The  increase  in  our  general  and  administrative  expenses  contributed  to  the  Company  experiencing  a  net  loss  from
operations of ($2,314,352) for fiscal 2010.  This increase was primarily a result of expenses we directly or indirectly incurred in connection
with the Merger Transaction and the costs incurred by the Company to assume and comply with obligations and activities associated with
being a public company.

Approximately  $425,000  of  the  increase  is  due  to  recognizing  expense  related  to  the  granting  of  stock  options  and  warrants  to
employees, members of the Board of Directors and our investor relations firm during the year.  Another $350,000 of expenses is related to
the  Merger  Transaction  such  as  new  D&O  insurance  premiums,  fees  paid  to  members  of  our  Board  of  Directors  (starting  in  the  third
quarter)  and  legal  and  accounting  fees.    An  additional  $100,000  of  expenses  is  related  to  costs  incurred  to  comply  with  SEC  reporting
obligations and associated other legal and accounting fees subsequent to the Merger Transaction.  In addition, we incurred approximately
$230,000 of additional salary, bonus, and benefit costs during the last two quarters of 2010 as a result of hiring of a new President/COO
and a new Corporate Controller.

The increase in our general and administrative expenses was somewhat offset by the fact that the 2009 period included $125,000
of expense related to a workman’s compensation audit of prior years, whereas we did not incur similar expenses during 2010.  Also during
2009, we recognized approximately $190,000 of bad debt expense as compared to approximately $90,000 during 2010.  Historically we
have  had  almost  no  bad  debts  but  the  industry’s  economic  problems  of  2009  resulted  in  economic  hardship  for  some  of  our
customers.  We recognized the bad debt expense once all collection efforts had been exhausted.  Nevertheless, we anticipate that our
general and administrative expenses will continue to increase in future years as we increase our operations and we continue to incur the
costs of public company compliance.

Depreciation and Amortization:

Despite writing off the remaining value ($770,000) of a non-compete agreement in 2009 due to the death of the individual who
was the party to the agreement, our depreciation and amortization expenses only decreased $400,000 in 2010 when compared to 2009
due to substantial property and equipment purchases.

Results of Operations:

Although we experienced a significant positive change in our gross profit for the year ended December 2010, the full impact of
these  improvements  was  not  realized  at  the  operating  profit  level,  as  the  Company  incurred  a  net  loss  for  fiscal  2010  of
$(1,845,665).  This was primarily due to the significant increase in general and administrative expenses discussed above.  We estimate
that  $550,000  of  general  and  administrative  expenses  incurred  in  2010  were  one-time  expenses  during  2010  as  they  are  related  to
warrants  and  grants  issued  to  board  members  and  our  investor  relations  firm  and  costs  associated  with  the  Merger  Transaction  and
certain  restructuring  leading  up  to  the  Merger  Transaction,  as  well  as  the  commencement  of  compliance  with  our  reporting
obligations.  We do not believe that we will incur these expenses in future periods although it is likely that our general and administrative
expenses will continue to increase as we expand our activities.

It should also be noted that because of the seasonality of our frac heating and hot oil business, the second and third quarters are
historically our least profitable quarters, resulting in net operating losses for the majority of those months.  We are attempting to address
the  seasonality  of  our  operations  through  our  increased  water  hauling  capacity  and  our  efforts  to  expand  into  other  year-round  service
segments and basins with a longer heating season.

Income Taxes:

The increases in income tax benefit for both 2010 as compared to 2009 was primarily due to the benefit recognized from Aspen’s

net operating loss realized in the Merger Transaction.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures:  Non-GAAP results are presented only as a supplement to the financial statements and for use
within management’s discussion and analysis based on U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The non-GAAP financial
information is provided to enhance the reader's understanding of the Company’s financial performance, but no non-GAAP measure should
be  considered  in  isolation  or  as  a  substitute  for  financial  measures  calculated  in  accordance  with  GAAP.  Reconciliations  of  the  most
directly comparable GAAP measures to non-GAAP measures are provided within the schedules attached herein.

EBITDA is defined as net income plus or minus net interest plus taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA excludes from
EBITDA  stock-based  compensation  and,  when  appropriate,  other  items  that  management  does  not  utilize  in  assessing  the  Company’s
operating performance (see list of these items to follow below).  None of these non-GAAP financial measures are recognized terms under
GAAP  and  do  not  purport  to  be  an  alternative  to  net  income  as  an  indicator  of  operating  performance  or  any  other  GAAP
measure.    Management  uses  these  non-GAAP  measures  in  its  operational  and  financial  decision-making,  believing  that  it  is  useful  to
eliminate  certain  items  in  order  to  focus  on  what  it  deems  to  be  a  more  reliable  indicator  of  ongoing  operating  performance  and  the
company’s  ability  to  generate  cash  flow  from  operations.    Management  also  believes  that  investors  may  find  non-GAAP  financial
measures useful for the same reasons, although investors are cautioned that non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for GAAP
disclosures.

All of the items included in the reconciliation from Net Income to EBITDA and from EBITDA to Adjusted EBITDA are either (i) non-cash
items (e.g., depreciation, amortization of purchased intangibles, stock-based compensation, etc.) or (ii) items that management does not
consider  to  be  useful  in  assessing  the  Company’s  operating  performance  (e.g.,  income  taxes,  gain  on  sale  of  investments,  loss  on
disposal  of  assets,  etc.).  In  the  case  of  the  non-cash  items,  management  believes  that  investors  can  better  assess  the  company’s
operating performance if the measures are presented without such items because, unlike cash expenses, these adjustments do not affect
the Company’s ability to generate free cash flow or invest in its business.

Because  not  all  companies  use  identical  calculations,  the  Company’s  presentation  of  non-GAAP  financial  measures  may  not  be
comparable  to  other  similarly  titled  measures  of  other  companies.  However,  these  measures  can  still  be  useful  in  evaluating  the
company’s performance against its peer companies because management believes the measures provide users with valuable insight into
key components of GAAP financial disclosures.

Adjusted  EBITDA  increased  by  approximately  $1.6  million  from  2009  to  2010.    The  major  components  causing  the  positive
change to Adjusted EBITDA were 1) an increase in net income (reduction in the net loss) due to the increase in Revenues, primarily due
to  redeploying  our  assets  to initiate  operations  in  the  southern  region  of  the  Marcellus  Shale  formation  as  discussed  in  the Revenues
section above, and 2) a reduction in Cost of Revenues during the same period due to an improvement in profitability from the impact of
high  gross  profit  margins  for  our  services  the  Marcellus  Shale  region  and  due  to  the  implementation  of  cost  controls  during  2009  in
response to the industry slowdown as discussed in the Costs of Revenues & Gross Profit section above.

We rely on cash generated from operations, borrowings under our credit facility and the cash that became available to us as a
result  of  the  Merger  Transaction  to  satisfy  our  liquidity  needs.  Our  ability  to  fund  operating  cash  flow  shortfalls,  fund  planned  capital
expenditures  and  make  acquisitions  will  depend  upon  our  future  operating  performance,  and  more  broadly,  on  the  availability  of  equity
and  debt  financing,  which  will  be  affected  by  prevailing  economic  conditions  in  our  industry  and  financial,  business  and  other  factors,
some of which are beyond our control.

At December 31, 2010, we had approximately $1.0 million available under our asset based, revolving credit facility that could be
used for working capital purposes and planned capital expenditures.  Our ability to fund our current operations and planned 2011 capital
expenditures will primarily depend on our future operating performance, our ability to borrow from our primary lender, and our ability to
raise  capital.    Based  on  our  existing  operating  performance  and  our  discussions  with  our  primary  lender  regarding  funding  of  future
equipment  fabrication,  we  believe  we  will  have  adequate  funds  to  meet  operational  and  capital  expenditure  needs  well  into  fiscal  year
2011,  although  we  may  need  to  raise  additional  capital  during  the  second  half  of  2011  in  order  to  meet  our  current  forecasted  capital
expenditures.    If  our  estimates  turn  out  to  be  inaccurate,  or  we  are  unable  to  raise  additional  capital,  the  Company  will  likely  adjust  its
expenditures and curtail certain of its planned operations.

The  credit  agreements  evidencing  our  debt  facilities  contain  standard  covenants  regarding  leverage,  minimum  net  worth,  debt
service coverage, additional debt limitations and loan to value ratios.  The first measurement date for these covenants was December 31,
2010.  The Company was able to meet all covenants at December 31, 2010 and the Company currently believes it will be able to satisfy
these covenants through 2011.

As  of  December  31,  2010,  our  working  capital  increased  from  December  31,  2009  by  approximately  $1.5  million.    There  were
various  offsetting  components  contributing  to  the  increase,  several  of  which  were  related  to  the  Merger  Transaction.    The  major
components causing the positive change to our working capital were –

Factors that increased our working capital -

1. An increase of cash by $1.0 million due to a draw on the new equipment loan facility with our primary lender which was entered
into in order to fund capital expenditures in late 2010 and early 2011 (the accompanying increase in our debt is reflected on
our balance sheet as a long term liability);

2. An increase in cash of approximately $490,000 primarily due to cash received in the Merger Transaction;
3. An  increase  in  accounts  receivable  of  $2.0  million  due  primarily  to  the  revenues  earned  from  our  heating  and  water  hauling

operations initiated in the Marcellus Shale region in late 2010;

4. An  increase  of  $320,000  in  prepaid  expenses  and  other  currents  assets  resulting  primarily  from  public  company  stocks

received in the Merger Transaction which had a fair value of approximately $300,000 at December 31, 2010;

5. An increase in income taxes receivable of approximately $250,000 due to the tax provision recorded for December 31, 2010;

and

6. A decrease in the outstanding balance on the revolving line of credit of approximately $300,000.

Factors that decreased our working capital -
1.  An increase in accounts payable of approximately $650,000 due to the timing of expenses incurred during the beginning of the

heating season (e.g. propane, diesel, travel, and other cost of goods and admin expenses in late 2010);

2.  An  increase  in  accrued  expenses  of  approximately  $150,000  due  to  a)  the  accrual  of  the    2011  -  2011  manager  and  hourly
bonus plans, which was enacted November 2010 of approximately $40,000, b) accrued interest on the subordinated debt of
approximately $50,000, and c) an increase in accrued payroll and vacation of approximately $60,000 due to timing of year-end
and additional employees hired in the second half of 2010; and

3.  An increase in the current portion of long-term debt of $2.0 million due to a) approximately $200,000 for the current portion of
long-term debt associated with the $1.0 million draw on the equipment loan, and b) an increase of approximately $1.9 million in
the current portion of long-term debt as a result of principal that will become due beginning in July of 2011 on the Company’s
$9.1 million term loan with our primary lender.  (There were no current maturities at December 31, 2009 on this term loan as
payments are interest only until June 2, 2011.  Beginning July 2011, fixed monthly payments for this term loan begin and a one-
time $1 million dollar pay-down is required.)

Investing and Financing Activities:

We have kept our capital expenditures at the same levels for 2009 and 2010 with only $2.2 million in capital expenditures, not
including capital leases of approximately $455,000, during the entire year in 2010.  In order to fund our capital expenditures with other
investing  activities,  we  sold  and  disposed  of  obsolete  or  retired  trucks  and  equipment  through  several  transactions  during  2010.    The
proceeds  from  these  sales  were  approximately  $820,000.    Thus  the  relative  increase  in  cash  used  for  investing  activities  for  2010  as
compared to the same period of 2009 was due primarily to these sales.

As of December 31, 2010 we had outstanding purchase orders of approximately $750,000 for heating and other units to meet the
demand of our customers in the Marcellus Shale region.  We expect to purchase most of this equipment in the first quarter of 2011. At this
time  we  have  no  commitments  for  additional  expenditures.    However,  we  may  decide  to  purchase  some  additional  equipment  in  2011
provided we have the resources to do so and it is economically feasible.

We  experienced  three  major  events  in  2010  that  had  significant  impacts  on  our  investing  activities.    The  first  two  events  were  1)  a
refinancing of a majority of our debt (approximately $10.5 million) in our second fiscal quarter, and 2) the issuance of a new equipment
loan  agreement  from  our  primary  lending  institution  ($1.0  million).    See  Note  15  and  Note  8  to  the  Consolidated  Financial  Statements
above for further details of these events.    The third major event was the Merger Transaction in our third fiscal quarter (see “Company
Overview and Overview of the Information Presented” above) that provided approximately $3 million in net working capital.

Going forward, in 2011 the Company hopes to expand its business operations, including by potentially expanding its operations
into new regions of the country, acquiring additional equipment and to increase the volume of services we currently offer, expanding the
services  if  offers  to  its  customers,  and/or  engaging  in  strategic  transactions  with  companies  that  offer  services  that  are  similar  or
complimentary  to  those  that  the  Company  offers.    Management  has  taken  various  preliminary  steps  to  explore  certain  of  these
activities.  To fully implement certain of these activities the Company likely will need to raise additional capital or borrow funds from its
existing lender(s) or from other third parties.  The Company believes that it can utilize cash flows, its existing line of credit, and remaining
equipment and other loan balances to finance its plans to expand its business operations, however, should the Company desire to engage
in  certain  strategic  transactions  or  other  significant  expansions  of  its  business  operations  it  will  likely  have  to  obtain  outside  financing.
There can be no assurance that financing will be available to the Company on reasonable terms, if at all.

General Terms of the Term Loan, Equipment Loan, and Line of Credit.

The  terms  of  the  Term  Loan  include  a  provision  of  interest-only  payments  until  June  2,  2011.    The  first  principal  payment  of
$1,000,000 is due on June 2, 2011 with the balance being amortized by monthly principal and interest payments of $188,700 thru May 2,
2015.  Finally, a balloon payment of the remaining unpaid principal balance is due on June 2, 2015.

The Line of Credit is due on June 2, 2011 unless renewed on a year-to-year basis.

consecutive principal and interest payments of $23,291, beginning 2/23/2011, and one final principal and interest payment of $23,316 due
on 1/23/2015.

The loans accrue interest at the variable rate of Prime plus 1% per annum with a 5.5% floor and are guaranteed by the Company
and all of its subsidiaries and by Mr. Herman and his wife who are majority stockholders of Enservco.  Additionally, the Term Loan and
Line of Credit are secured by substantially all of Dillco’s and Heat Waves’ equipment and accounts receivable.  The Equipment Loan is
secured by the real property assets owned by the Company and its subsidiary entities as purchased with the funds of the equipment loan.

The loans contain various financial covenants that the Company is required to meet including maximum leverage ratios, minimum
net  worth  and  minimum  debt  service  coverage.    The  loans  also  restrict  the  Company’s  ability  to  incur  additional  debt.    Management
currently  believes  that  the  Company  will  be  able  to  meet  these  covenants  for  the  immediate  future;  however,  the  Company’s  ability  to
continue to meet these financial covenants will ultimately be dependent on its results of operations.  The loan agreements also contain
cross  default  provisions  such  that  should  Mr.  Herman  default  on  any  of  the  other  debt  he  has  with  the  bank,  the  bank  could  declare
Dillco’s loans in default.

Long-term Commitments and Obligations

The Company’s long-term commitments and obligations as of December 31, 2010 consisted of the Term Loan, the Line of Credit,
the  Equipment  Loan,  as  well  as  certain  capital  and  operating  leases,  and  excluded  related  party  subordinated  debt  of  $1.7  million. 
Amounts  due  under  those  commitments  and  obligations  are  summarized  below.    Although  these  obligations  are  not  obligations  of
Enservco itself, as of the date of this report they are obligations and commitments of the Company on a consolidated basis and may affect
the Company’s liquidity and financial obligations going forward.

The  Company  expects  to  be  able  to  meet  its  long-term  capital  commitments  through  the  use  of  its  existing  line  of  credit  and

anticipated positive cash flow from operations.

Off-balance Sheet Arrangements

The  Company  had  no  significant  off-balance  sheet  arrangements  that  have  or  are  reasonably  likely  to  have  a  current  or  future
effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures
or capital resources that are material to our stockholders.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U. S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make  a  variety  of  estimates  and  assumptions  that  affect  (i)  the  reported  amounts  of  assets  and  liabilities  and  disclosure  of  contingent
assets  and  liabilities  as  of  the  date  of  the  financial  statements.  and  (ii)  the  reported  amounts  of  revenues  and  expenses  during  the
reporting periods covered by the financial statements.

Our  management  routinely  makes  judgments  and  estimates  about  the  effect  of  matters  that  are  inherently  uncertain.  As  the
number  of  variables  and  assumptions  affecting  the  future  resolution  of  the  uncertainties  increase,  these  judgments  become  even  more
subjective and complex. Although we believe that our estimates and assumptions are reasonable, actual results may differ significantly
from  these  estimates.  Changes  in  estimates  and  assumptions  based  upon  actual  results  may  have  a  material  impact  on  our  results  of
operation and/or financial condition. Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in Note 2 to the Financial Statements included in this
Form 10-K.

While  all  of  the  significant  accounting  policies  are  important  to  the  Company’s  financial  statements,  the  following  accounting

policies and the estimates derived there from have been identified as being critical:

Accounts Receivable.  Accounts receivable are stated at the amount billed to customers.  The Company provides a reserve for
doubtful accounts based on a review of outstanding receivables, historical collection information and existing economic conditions.  The
provision for uncollectible amounts is continually reviewed and adjusted to maintain the allowance at a level considered adequate to cover
future losses.  The allowance is management's best estimate of uncollectible amounts and is determined based on historical performance
that  is  tracked  by  the  Company  on  an  ongoing  basis.    The  losses  ultimately  incurred  could  differ  materially  in  the  near  term  from  the
amounts estimated in determining the allowance.

Property and Equipment.  Property and equipment consists of

(1)           Trucks, trailers and pickups;
(2)           Trucks that are in various stages of fabrication;
(3)

Real property which includes land and buildings used for office and shop facilities and wells used for the disposal of water;
and
Other  equipment  such  as  tools  used  for  maintaining  and  repairing  vehicles,  office  furniture  and  fixtures,  and  computer
equipment.

(4)

Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.  The Company charges repairs and maintenance against
income  when  incurred  and  capitalizes  renewals  and  betterments,  which  extend  the  remaining  useful  life  or  expand  the  capacity  of  the
assets.  Depreciation is recorded on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of 5 to 30 years.

Long-Lived  Assets.  The  Company  reviews  its  long-lived  assets  for  impairment  whenever  events  or  changes  in  circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recovered.  The Company looks primarily to the discounted future cash flows in
its assessment of whether or not long-lived assets have been impaired.  No impairments were recorded during the year ended December
31, 2010 or 2009.

Marketable Securities. The Company determines the appropriate classification of its investments in debt and equity securities at the time
of purchase and re-evaluates such determinations at each balance sheet date. Debt securities are classified as held to maturity when the
Company has the positive intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity. Debt securities for which the Company does not have the
intent or ability to hold to maturity are classified as available for sale. Held-to-maturity securities are recorded as either short term or long
term on the Balance Sheet, based on contractual maturity date and are stated at amortized cost. Marketable securities that are bought
and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as trading securities and are reported at fair value, with
unrealized gains and losses recognized in earnings, and are classified on the balance sheet as either short term or long term, based on
contractual maturity date and are stated at amortized cost. Debt and marketable equity securities not classified as held to maturity or as
trading, are classified as available for sale, and are carried at fair market value, with the unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, included
in the determination of comprehensive income and reported in stockholders’ equity, and are classified as current assets on the balance
sheet.

The fair value of substantially all securities is determined by quoted market prices. The estimated fair value of securities for which

there are no quoted market prices is based on similar types of securities that are traded in the market.

Income  Taxes.  The Company’s subsidiaries, with the exception of Dillco (which is a C Corporation subject to federal and state
income taxes), are limited liability companies and prior to January 1, 2010 were not subject to federal or state income taxes. Therefore, no
provision or liability for 2009 income taxes has been included in the accompanying financial statements, except for income taxes relating
to the financial statements of Dillco.

47

EDGAR Stream is a copyright of Issuer Direct Corporation, all rights reserved.

 
 
 
 
 
 
The Company recognizes deferred tax liabilities and assets (Note 11) based on the differences between the tax basis of assets
and  liabilities  and  their  reported  amounts  in  the  financial  statements  that  will  result  in  taxable  or  deductible  amounts  in  future
years.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which
those  temporary  differences  are  expected  to  be  recovered  or  settled.    The  effect  of  a  change  in  tax  rates  on  deferred  tax  assets  and
liabilities will be recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Effective  January  1,  2009,  the  Company  accounts  for  any  uncertainty  in  income  taxes  by  recognizing  the  tax  benefit  from  an
uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based
on  the  technical  merits  of  the  position.    The  Company  measures  the  tax  benefits  recognized  in  the  financial  statements  from  such  a
position based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate resolution.  The application of
income tax law is inherently complex.  Laws and regulations in this area are voluminous and are often ambiguous.  As such, the Company
is  required  to  make  many  subjective  assumptions  and  judgments  regarding  income  tax  exposures.    Interpretations  of  and  guidance
surrounding income tax law and regulations change over time and may result in changes to the Company’s subjective assumptions and
judgments  which  can  materially  affect  amounts  recognized  in  the  consolidate  balance  sheets  and  consolidated  statements  of
income.  The result of the reassessment of the Company’s tax positions did not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements.

When accounting for uncertainty in income taxes for those entities electing to be treated as limited liability companies for income
tax purposes, if taxing authorities were to disallow any tax positions taken by the Company, the additional income taxes, if any, would be
imposed on the member rather than the Company.  Accordingly, there would be no effect on the Company’s financial statements. 

Interest  and  penalties  associated  with  tax  positions  are  recorded  in  the  period  assessed  as  general  and  administrative
expenses.  No interest or penalties have been assessed as of December 31, 2009 and 2008.  The Company’s income tax returns for tax
years  subject  to  examination  by  tax  authorities  include  2005  and  2006  through  the  current  period  for  state  and  federal  tax  reporting
purposes, respectively.

ITEM 9.  CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

The following disclosure is with respect to not only the Company, but also with respect to Aspen and the Company’s subsidiary entities.

1.      Eide Bailly / Ehrhardt Keefe Steiner & Hottman PC

On July 27, 2010, Enservco’s Board of Directors informed Eide Bailly LLP (“Eide Bailly”) that it had dismissed Eide Bailly as the
Company’s independent registered public accounting firm effective immediately.  Eide Bailly served as the independent registered public
accounting firm of Aspen.  The dismissal of Eide Bailly was solely the result of the Merger Transaction as the Company believed that it
was appropriate to appoint an accounting firm that had performed an audit of Dillco and was generally familiar with Dillco and its related
entities and operations.

Also  on  July  27,  2010,  the  Board  of  Directors  informed  Ehrhardt  Keefe  Steiner  &  Hottman  PC  (EKS&H)  certified  public
accountants, that such firm was appointed as the Company’s independent registered accounting firm effective on that same date.  EKS&H
was retained by Dillco to audit its 2009 and 2008 financial statements that were filed with the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed
on  July  27,  2010.    However,  Enservco  had  not  previously  consulted  EKS&H  with  regard  to  any  matters  including  the  application  of
accounting  principles  to  a  specified  transaction,  or  an  audit  opinion  that  might  be  rendered  with  respect  to  the  Company’s  financial
statements or any matter that was the subject of a disagreement or a reportable event.

Eide Bailly provided a report on Aspen’s financial statements for its fiscal years ended June 30, 2008 and 2009 and neither report

contained an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor was it modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

During Aspen’s fiscal year’s ended June 30, 2008 and June 30, 2009 and subsequently, there were no disagreements with Eide
Bailly  on  any  matter  of  accounting  principles,  practices,  financial  statement  disclosure,  or  auditing  scope  or  procedure  which  if  not
resolved  to  Eide  Bailly’s  satisfaction  would  have  caused  Eide  Bailly  to  make  reference  to  the  subject  matter  of  the  disagreement  in
connection with its principal accounting report on the financial statements for Aspen’s fiscal year ended June 30, 2008 and June 30, 2009,
or any subsequent report.

2.          Stockman Kast Ryan & Company

Prior to commencing discussions regarding the Merger Transaction, Dillco had engaged Stockman Kast Ryan & Co. (“Stockman
Kast”)  to  audit  its  fiscal  2008  financial  statements.    Prior  to  issuance  of  the  audit  report,  Dillco  reached  a  conclusion  that  it  intended  to
merge with a public company subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.   Stockman Kast
is not registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, a requirement for a reporting company’s audit and therefore Dillco
informed Stockman Kast that it was dismissed as Dillco’s independent registered public accounting firm.  As such Stockman Kast has not
provided any report on Dillco’s financial statements and thus no Stockman Kast report has contained an adverse opinion or disclaimer of
opinion, nor was it modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.  There were no disagreements with Stockman Kast on
any matter of accounting principles, practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure.

ITEM 9A  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be
disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the 1934 Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods
specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.  Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation,
controls  and  procedures  designed  to  ensure  that  information  required  to  be  disclosed  in  our  reports  filed  under  the  1934  Act  is
accumulated  and  communicated  to  management,  including  our  principal  executive  officer  and  our  principal  financial  officer,  as
appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, under the direction of our Chief Executive Officer (who is our principal executive officer), and Chief Financial
Officer (who is our principal accounting officer) has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as required by
1934 Act Rule 13a-15(b) as of December 31, 2010 (the end of the period covered by this report). Based on that evaluation, our principal
executive officer and our principal accounting officer concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of such
date.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our  management  is  also  responsible  for  establishing  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  (“ICFR”)  as  defined  in  Rules  13a-
15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the 1934 Act. Our ICFR are intended to be designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of
financial  reporting  and  the  preparation  of  financial  statements  for  external  purposes  in  accordance  with  U.S.  generally  accepted
accounting principles. Our ICFR are expected to include those policies and procedures that management believes are necessary that:

(1)

(2)

(3)

Pertain  to  the  maintenance  of  records  that,  in  reasonable  detail,  accurately  and  fairly  reflect  the  transactions  and
dispositions of the assets of the Company;
Provide  reasonable  assurance  that  transactions  are  recorded  as  necessary  to  permit  preparation  of  financial
statements  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting  principles,  and  that  receipts  and  expenditures  of  the
Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and our directors; and
Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition
of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.               

Management recognizes that there are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any system of internal control, and accordingly,
even effective internal control can provide only reasonable assurance with respect of financial statement preparation and may not prevent
or  detect  misstatements.  In  addition,  effective  internal  control  at  a  point  in  time  may  become  ineffective  in  future  periods  because  of
changes in conditions or due to deterioration in the degree of compliance with our established policies and procedures.

As  of  December  31,  2010,  management  assessed  the  effectiveness  of  the  Company’s  ICFR  based  on  the  criteria  for  effective
ICFR  established  in  Internal  Control--Integrated  Framework  issued  by  the  Committee  of  Sponsoring  Organizations  of  the  Treadway
Commission  (COSO)  and  SEC  guidance  on  conducting  such  assessments  by  smaller  reporting  companies  and  non-accelerated  filers.
Based on that assessment, management concluded that, during the period covered by this report, such internal controls and procedures
were effective as of December 31, 2010.

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal

control over financial reporting due to the permanent exemption from such requirement for smaller reporting companies.

There  were  no  changes  in  our  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  during  the  quarter  ended  December  31,  2010,  that  have

materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Board  of  Directors  of  Reading  International,  Inc.  (NASDAQ  RDI).    Further,  Mr.  Laheney  previously  served  on  the  Board  of  Directors  of
Sunair Electronics.

Board of Directors – Composition.

The Company’s Board of Directors seeks to ensure that it is composed of members whose particular experience, qualifications,
attributes, and skills, when taken together, will allow the Board of Directors to satisfy its oversight obligations effectively. The Company
does  not  currently  have  a  separate  nominating  (or  similar)  committee  as  given  the  Company’s  small  size  the  Company  does  not  yet
believe such a committee is necessary.  However, as the Company grows and considers trying to position itself for a potential listing on a
stock exchange, it may consider establishing a separate nominating committee.  Currently the Board of Directors as a whole is in charge
of identifying and appointing appropriate persons to add to the Board of Directors when necessary.  In identifying Board candidates it is the
Board’s goal to identify persons who it believes have appropriate expertise and experience to contribute to the oversight of a company of
the Company’s nature while also reviewing other appropriate factors.

The  Company  believes  that  each  of  the  persons  that  now  comprise  its  Board  of  Directors  have  the  experience,  qualifications,
attributes  and  skills  when  taken  as  a  whole  will  enable  the  Board  of  Directors  to  satisfy  its  oversight  responsibilities  effectively.    With
regard  to  the  current  members  of  the  Board  of  Directors  the  following  factors  were  among  those  considered  that  led  to  the  Board’s
conclusion that each would make valuable contributions to the Board:

§ Michael Herman:  Mr. Herman has been actively involved with the Company’s business operations and strategy, for several years
and  has  a  significant  amount  of  knowledge  regarding  its  current  and  contemplated  business  operations.    Further,  he  has  been
active in the oil and natural gas producing and servicing business since the mid-1980’s and has a broad range of experience in
business outside of the oil and natural gas industry that the Board believes is valuable in forming the Company’s business strategy
and identifying new business opportunities.

§ R.V.  Bailey:    Mr.  Bailey  has  a  significant  amount  of  experience  in  the  natural  resource  exploration  and  development  arena,
including his experience in the oil and natural gas sectors.  Additionally, Mr. Bailey was a founding member of Aspen and gained a
significant  amount  of  experience  with  respect  to  the  stockholder  relations  and  the  administration  of  companies  subject  to  the
reporting  requirements  of  the  Securities  Exchange  Act  of  1934.    Mr.  Bailey  is  also  familiar  with  a  significant  number  of  the
Company’s larger pre-Merger Transaction stockholders.

§ Kevan  B.  Hensman:  Mr.  Hensman  has  experience  not  only  in  the  oil  and  natural  gas  industry  but  also  with  regard  to  financial
analysis and accounting.  The Board believes that given his varied background and experiences that are relevant to a company
operating in the Company’s industry, Mr. Hensman makes a valuable member of the Board of Directors.

§ Gerard  P.  Laheney:    Mr.  Laheney  has  a  significant  amount  of  experience  within  the  asset  management  industry  and  with  the
capital markets.  The Board believes Mr. Laheney’s experience and knowledge with the capital markets are valuable to the Board
of Directors as a whole.

Significant Employees:

Although not an executive officer or director of the Company, Austin Peitz has been and is expected to be, a significant employee
of the Company.  Mr. Peitz has worked for Heat Waves since October 1999 and has been involved in nearly all  aspects  of  operations
since that time.  Currently, Mr. Peitz is the Director of Operations for Heat Waves and is in charge of overseeing and coordinating field
operations.

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings:

During the past ten years none of the persons serving as executive officers and/or directors of the Company  has been the subject
matter  of  any  of  the  following  legal  proceedings  that  are  required  to  be  disclosed  pursuant  to  Item  401(f)  of  Regulation  S-K  including:
(a) any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the
time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time; (b) any criminal convictions; (c) any order, judgment, or decree permanently
or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities;
(d) any finding by a court, the SEC or the CFTC to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, any law or regulation
respecting financial institutions or insurance companies, or any law or regulation prohibiting mail or wire fraud; or (e) any sanction or order
of any self-regulatory organization or registered entity or equivalent exchange, association or entity.  Further, no such legal proceedings
are believed to be contemplated by governmental authorities against any director or executive officer.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance:

Section  16(a)  of  the  1934  Act  requires  Enservco’s  directors  and  officers  and  any  persons  who  own  more  than  ten  percent  of
Enservco’s equity securities, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
“SEC”).    All  directors,  officers  and  greater  than  ten-percent  stockholders  are  required  by  SEC  regulation  to  furnish  the  Company  with
copies of all Section 16(a) reports files.  Based solely on our review of the copies of Forms 3, 4 and any amendments thereto furnished to
us  during  the  fiscal  year  completed  December  31,  2010,  and  subsequently,  we  believe  that  during  the  Company’s  2010  fiscal  year  all
filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater-than-ten-percent stockholders were complied with.

Code of Ethics:

On July 27, 2010, our Board of Directors adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics Whistleblower Policy that applies to all
of  our  officers  and  employees,  including  our  principal  executive  officer,  principal  financial  officer  and  principal  accounting  officer.    Our
Code of Ethics establishes standards and guidelines to assist our directors, officers, and employees in complying with both the Company’s
corporate  policies  and  with  the  law  and  is  posted  at  our  website:  www.enservco.com.    Additionally,  a  copy  of  our  Code  of  Business
Conduct and Ethics and Whistleblower Policy was filed as an exhibit to our Current Report on Form 8-K dated July 27, 2010.

No Audit Committee:

The Company does not have a separately designated audit committee.  Instead, the entire Board acts as the Company’s audit

committee.  Consequently the Company does not currently have a designated audit committee financial expert.

No  Nominating  Committee;  Procedures  by  which  Security  Holders  May  Recommend  Nominees  to  the  Board  of  Directors;
Communications with Members of the Board of Directors:

The  Company  does  not  have  a  separately  designated  nominating  committee.    The  Company  does  not  have  such  a  committee
because we currently believe that given our small size, the fact that a majority of the members of our Board are not currently considered
“independent”, and because no Company securities are traded on a stock exchange, that such a committee is not currently necessary.
Unless  and  until  the  Company  establishes  a  separate  nominating  committee,  when  a  board  vacancy  occurs,  the  remaining  board
members will participate in deliberations concerning director nominees.  In the future the Company may determine that it is appropriate to
designate a separate nominating committee of the board of directors comprised solely of independent directors.

To  date,  the  Board  of  Directors  has  not  adopted  a  formal  procedure  by  which  stockholders  may  recommend  nominees  to  the
board of directors.  However, our bylaws set forth the procedure by which eligible stockholders may nominate a person to the Board of
Directors, which in relevant part provides that:

The Corporation will consider all recommendations from any person (or group) who has (or collectively if a group have) held
more  than  5%  of  the  Corporation’s  voting  securities  for  longer  than  one  year.    Any  stockholder  who  desires  to  submit  a
nomination of a person to stand for election of directors at the next annual or special meeting of the stockholders at which
directors are to be elected must submit a notification of the stockholder’s intention to make a nomination (“Notification”) to
the Corporation by the date mentioned in the most recent proxy statement under the heading “Proposal From Stockholders”
as such date may be amended in cases where the annual meeting has been changed as contemplated in SEC Rule 14a-
8(e), Question 5, and in that notification must provide the following additional information to the Corporation:

Name, address, telephone number and other methods by which the Corporation can contact the stockholder submitting the
Notification  and  the  total  number  of  shares  beneficially  owned  by  the  stockholder  (as  the  term  “beneficial  ownership”  is
defined in SEC Rule 13d-3);

If  the  stockholder  owns  shares  of  the  Corporation’s  voting  stock  other  than  on  the  records  of  the  Corporation,  the
stockholder must provide evidence that he or she owns such shares (which evidence may include a current statement from
a brokerage house or other appropriate documentation);

Information from the stockholder regarding any intentions that he or she may have to attempt to make a change of control or
to influence the direction of the Corporation, and other information regarding the stockholder any other persons associated
with  the  stockholder  that  would  be  required  under  Items  4  and  5  of  SEC  Schedule  14A  were  the  stockholder  or  other
persons associated with the stockholder making a solicitation subject to SEC Rule 14a-12(c);

Name, address, telephone number and other contact information of the proposed nominee; and

All  information  required  by  Item  7  of  SEC  Schedule  14A  with  respect  to  the  proposed  nominee,  shall  be  in  a  form

that  would  have  been  used  to  pay  his  salary  were  better  devoted  to  helping  to  grow  and  develop  the  Company’s  business
operations.  Mr. Herman’s sole compensation from the Company during its last two fiscal years (and thus far in fiscal 2011) was
derived from the Company paying his health, life, dental and vision insurance premiums. Mr. Herman is not involved in the day-to-
day operations of the Company but serves as CEO to provide strategic guidance on an as needed basis. The Company evaluated
the  services  provided  by  Mr.  Herman  during  the  years  ended  December  31,  2010  and  2009  and  determined  that  it  was  not
necessary to impute compensation for financial reporting purposes.

Narrative Disclosure to Summary Compensation Table

The  Board  of  Directors  acting  in  lieu  of  a  compensation  committee,  is  charged  with  reviewing  and  approving  the  terms  and
structure  of  the  compensation  of  the  Company’s  executive  officers.    To  date,  the  Company  has  not  retained  an  independent
compensation to assist the Company review and analyze the structure and terms of the Company’s executive officers.

The Company considers various factors when evaluating and determining the compensation terms and structure of its executive

officers, including the following:

1. The executive’s leadership and operational performance and potential to enhance long-term value to the Company’s stockholders;
2. The Company’s financial resources, results of operations, and financial projections;
3. Performance compared to the financial, operational and strategic goals established for the Company;
4. The nature, scope and level of the executive’s responsibilities;
5. Competitive market compensation paid by other companies for similar positions, experience and performance levels; and
6. The executive’s current salary, the appropriate balance between incentives for long-term and short-term performance.

Company management is responsible for reviewing the base salary, annual bonus and long-term compensation levels for other Company
employees,  and  the  Company  expects  this  practice  to  continue  going  forward.    The  entire  Board  of  Directors  remains  responsible  for
significant changes to, or adoption, of new employee benefit plans.

The  Company  believes  that  the  compensation  environment  for  qualified  professionals  in  the  industry  in  which  we  operate  is  highly
competitive.  In order to compete in this environment, the compensation of our executive officers is primarily comprised of the following
four components:

§ Base salary;
§ Stock option awards and/or equity based compensation;
§ Discretionary cash bonuses; and
§ Other employment benefits.

Base  Salary. Base salary, paid in cash, is the first element of compensation to our officers. In  determining  base  salaries  for  our
key  executive  officers,  the  Company  aims  to  set  base  salaries  at  a  level  we  believe  enables  us  to  hire  and  retain  individuals  in  a
competitive  environment  and  to  reward  individual  performance  and  contribution  to  our  overall  business  goals.  The  Board  of  Directors
believes  that  base  salary  should  be  relatively  stable  over  time,  providing  the  executive  a  dependable,  minimum  level  of  compensation,
which is approximately equivalent to compensation that may be paid by competitors for persons of similar abilities. The Board of Directors
believes that base salaries for our executive officers are appropriate for persons serving as executive officers of public companies similar
in size and complexity similar to the Company.

The  Company’s  Chief  Executive  Officer  is  not  paid  a  base  salary  as  he  has  elected  to  forego  the  receipt  of  a  salary.    The
Company’s other executive officers receive their base salaries in accordance with the terms of their respective employment agreements
(which are described below).

Stock  Option  Plan  Benefits  –  Each  of  the  Company’s  executive  officers  is  eligible  to  be  granted  awards  under  the  Company’s
equity compensation plans.  The Company believes that equity based compensation helps align management and executives’ interests
with the interests of our stockholders. Our equity incentives are also intended to reward the attainment of long-term corporate objectives
by our executives. We also believe that grants of equity-based compensation are necessary to enable us to be competitive from a total
remuneration standpoint.   At the present time, we have one equity incentive plan for our management and employees, the 2010 Stock
Incentive Plan.   The material terms, and administration of the 2010 Stock Incentive Plan are further described under Item 5 of this Annual
Report.

We  have  no  set  formula  for  granting  awards  to  our  executives  or  employees.  In  determining  whether  to  grant  awards  and  the
amount of any awards, we take into consideration discretionary factors such as the individual’s current and expected future performance,
level of responsibilities, retention considerations, and the total compensation package.

The  Company  has  granted  each  of  its  executive  officers  stock  options,  with  the  exception  of  our  Chief  Executive  Officer.    Our  Chief
Executive Officer expressed to the Company that he did not wish to receive such a grant because he believes that, given his significant
stock ownership, it was more appropriate to allocate the options to other employees.

In  conjunction  with  entering  into  an  employment  agreement  on  July  27,  2010  Rick  Kasch,  the  Company’s  Chief  Financial  Officer  was
granted an option to acquire 300,000 shares of Company common stock, and Mr. Peitz was granted an option to acquire 450,000 shares
of  Company  common  stock.  The  exercise  price  of  both  options  is  $0.49  (which  is  equal  to  the  closing  sales  price  of  the  Company’s
common stock two days after the Company filed its Current Report on Form 8-K reporting the closing of the Merger Transaction).  Both
options are exercisable for a five year term, and one third of the options vested immediately upon grant with the remaining portion of the
option to vest on a pro-rata basis on each of the first two anniversary dates of the option grant.

Additionally, at the time of his appointment as our Chief Operating Officer and President, on August 23, 2010 Bob Maughmer was granted
an option to acquire 1 million shares of Company common stock.  The option is exercisable for a five year term with an exercise price of
$0.49  per  share.    One  third  of  the  options  vested  at  the  time  of  grant  and  the  remaining  two  thirds  vest  on  a  pro  rata  basis  on  each
anniversary date of the date of grant.

Discretionary Annual Bonus. Discretionary  cash  bonuses  are  another  prong  of  our  compensation  plan.    The  Board  of  Directors
believes  that  it  is  appropriate  that  executive  officers  and  other  employees  have  the  potential  to  receive  a  portion  of  their  annual  cash
compensation  as  a  cash  bonus  to  encourage  performance  to  achieve  key  corporate  objectives  and  to  be  competitive  from  a  total
remuneration standpoint.

We  have  no  set  formula  for  determining  or  awarding  discretionary  cash  bonuses  to  our  other  executives  or  employees.  In
determining whether to award bonuses and the amount of any bonuses, we have taken and expect to continue to take into consideration
discretionary factors such as the individual’s current and expected future performance, level of responsibilities, retention considerations,
and the total compensation package, as well as the Company’s overall performance including cash flow and other operational factors.

The  employment  agreements  we  have  entered  into  with  certain  of  our  executive  officers  provide  that  each  is  eligible  to  receive  a
discretionary cash bonus.  Such bonuses are to be considered and determined by the Board of Directors, and paid during the ninety day
period beginning February 1 of the year following that year for which the bonus was earned.  After the end of our 2010 fiscal year the
Board of Directors awarded cash bonuses to the following Company executive:

59

•

 Austin Peitz – Mr. Peitz was awarded a cash bonus of $68,131 for fiscal year 2010, the majority of the bonus was paid to Mr. Peitz
in 2010. However, of this amount, approximately $10,000 is to be paid to Mr. Peitz on or about March 31, 2011.

Other  Compensation/Benefits.  Another  element  of  the  overall  compensation  is  through  providing  our  executive  officers  are
various employment benefits, such as the payment of health and life insurance premiums on behalf of the executive officers.  Additionally,
the Company provides its executive officers with an automobile allowance.  Our executive officers are also eligible to participate in our
401(k)  plan  on  the  same  basis  as  other  employees  and  the  Company  historically  has  made  matching  contributions  to  the  401(k)  plan,
including for the benefit of our executive officers.

Employment Agreements

We  have  entered  into  employment  agreements  with  certain  Company  officers  and  key  employees,  including  Messrs.  Herman,

Maughmer, Peitz and Kasch (all of whom are listed in the executive compensation table above).

Michael  Herman  – Mr.  Herman’s  employment  agreement  is  for  a  term  through  June  30,  2013.    The  agreement  provides  for  no
base salary.  However, Mr. Herman will be eligible for an annual discretionary cash bonus based on Mr. Herman’s performance and the
performance of the Company as a whole, with any bonus ultimately to be determined by the Board of Directors.  Mr. Herman is entitled to
receive standard employment benefits and a car allowance of $1,000 per month.  If Mr. Herman is terminated without cause he will be
entitled to health benefits for a period of eighteen months.  The employment agreement also contains other standard provisions contained
in agreements of this nature including confidentiality and non-competition provisions.

Rick Kasch – Mr. Kasch’s employment agreement is for a term through June 30, 2013.  The agreement provides for an annual
salary  of  $180,000  through  June  30,  2011  and  then  automatic  increases  of  5%  effective  on  each  July  1  during  the  term  of  the
agreement.    Pursuant  to  the  agreement  the  Company  agreed  to  grant  Mr.  Kasch  an  option  to  acquire  300,000  shares  of  Company
common stock in accordance with the Company’s 2010 Stock Incentive Plan.  Mr. Kasch is also entitled to standard employment benefits
and  the  use  of  a  Company  automobile  or  alternatively  a  car  allowance  of  at  least  $1,000.  The  employment  agreement  contains  other
standard provisions contained in agreements of this nature including confidentiality and non-competition provisions.

Mr. Kasch’s employment agreement also provides for severance compensation if his employment is terminated for the following

two reasons:

1.

2.

A termination without cause - If Mr. Kasch is terminated without cause he will be entitled to all salary that would have been
paid through the remaining term of the agreement, or if the agreement is terminated without cause during the final eighteen
months of the agreement term Mr. Kasch will be entitled to receive a lump sum payment equal to eighteen months of his
base  salary.    Additionally,  if  Mr.  Kasch  is  terminated  without  cause,  he  will  be  entitled  to  health  benefits  for  a  period  of
eighteen months; and
A termination upon a change of control event or a management change - If Mr. Kasch resigns within ninety days following a
change  of  control  event  or  a  management  change  (being  the  person  to  whom  he  directly  reports)  he  will  be  entitled  to  a
severance payment equal to eighteen months of his base salary with the amount being paid either in a lump sum payment or
in  accordance  with  the  Company’s  payroll  practices.    Further,  Mr.  Kasch  will  be  entitled  to  health  benefits  for  a  period  of
eighteen months.

Austin  Peitz  - Mr.  Peitz’s  employment  agreement  is  for  a  term  through  June  30,  2013.    The  agreement  provides  for  an  annual
salary  of  $120,000  through  June  30,  2011  and  then  automatic  increases  of  5%  effective  on  each  July  1  during  the  term  of  the
agreement.  Pursuant to the agreement the Company agreed to grant Mr. Peitz an option to acquire 450,000 shares of Company common
stock in accordance with the Company’s 2010 Stock Incentive Plan.  Mr. Peitz is also entitled to standard employment benefits and the
use of a Company automobile or alternatively a car allowance of at least $1,000. If Mr. Peitz is terminated without cause he is entitled to a
severance  payment  equal  to  six  months  of  his  salary.    The  employment  agreement  contains  other  standard  provisions  contained  in
agreements of this nature including confidentiality and non-competition provisions.

Bob  Maughmer –  On  September  6,  2010  Enservco  entered  into  an  employment  agreement  with  Mr.  Maughmer,  Enservco’s
President  and  Chief  Operating  Officer.    The  employment  agreement  provides  that  Mr.  Maughmer  will  be  paid  an  annual  salary  of
$225,000.    On  July  1  of  each  year  that  the  employment  agreement  is  in  effect  Mr.  Maughmer’s  salary  will  be  increased  by  at  least
5%.    Mr.  Maughmer  is  eligible  to  receive  a  discretionary  annual  bonus  based  on  Mr.  Maughmer’s  performance  and  the  Company’s

Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners

As of March 15, 2011, the Company is not aware of any persons that beneficially own more than 5% of its outstanding common
stock who does not serve as an executive officer or director of the Company, except for Mr. Herman’s spouse whose shares are included
in Mr. Herman’s beneficial ownership reported in the table above.

Employee/Director Hedging Is Not Permitted.

Section 14(j) of the 1934 Act requires each issuer to disclose whether any employee or member of the board of directors, or any
designee of any employee or board member, is permitted to purchase hedges – that is, financial instruments that are designed to hedge
or  offset  against  any  decrease  in  the  market  price  for  the  issuer’s  securities.    On  July  27,  2010,  the  Board  of  Directors  adopted  the
Company’s “Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and Whistleblower Policy” which provides that the “Board of Directors has concluded
that  it  is  inappropriate  for  employees  or  members  of  the  board  of  directors,  or  any  designee  of  such  persons,  to  purchase  hedges”
involving the Company’s securities.

Change in Control Arrangements

As of March 15, 2011, there are no arrangements that would result in a change in control of the Company except to the extent
that  Mr.  Herman  has  personally  guaranteed  substantially  all  of  Dillco’s  indebtedness  (which  indebtedness  Enservco  has  also
guaranteed).  In addition, Mr. Herman has significant personal indebtedness with Great Western Bank, the principal lender to Dillco.  Mr.
Herman has granted Great Western Bank a blanket lien on his personal assets.  Therefore, should Mr. Herman default on his personal
indebtedness  to  the  Great  Western  Bank,  the  bank  may  institute  a  collection  action  which  could  result  in  the  transfer  of  Mr.  Herman’s
interest in the Company to Great Western Bank – which transfer would result in a change of control.

Loan Transactions

1.     On November 21, 2009 Mr. Herman loaned $500,000 to Heat Waves pursuant to the terms of a promissory note (the “Heat
Waves  Note”).    The  Heat  Waves  Note  accrues  interest  at  3%  per  annum  and  is  due  in  full  by  December  31,  2018.    As  part  of  loan
agreements  with  Great  Western  Bank,  Mr.  Herman  agreed  to  subordinate  the  debt  represented  by  this  note  to  all  obligations  to  the
bank.    Interest  is  to  be  paid  annually  in  arrears  but  due  to  the  subordination,  interest  is  being  accrued  and  as  of  December  31,  2010
accrued interest was $18,845.

2.      On March 31, 2010, Mr. Herman loaned an additional $1,200,000 to Heat Waves pursuant to the terms of a promissory note
(the “Heat Waves Note II”).  The Heat Waves Note II accrues interest at 3% per annum and is due in full by December 31, 2018.  As part
of the loan agreements with Great Western Bank, Mr. Herman agreed to subordinate the debt represented by this note to all obligations to
the bank.  Interest is to be paid annually in arrears but due to the subordination, interest is being accrued and as of December 31, 2010
accrued interest was $30,360.

3.      On July 27, 2010, Enservco (as the parent corporation) became the guarantor of Dillco’s indebtedness to Great Western
Bank.  Because of certain cross-default provisions, a default by Mr. Herman as to his personal indebtedness to Great Western Bank could
result in a default by Dillco in its indebtedness even though at the time Dillco was in compliance with all of its covenants.

Asset Transfer and Sales; Membership Interest Transfer and Sales

1.                      On  December  31,  2009,  HNR  sold  certain  assets  to  Dillco  for  $1,065,623.    These  assets  included  land,  buildings,
vehicles, equipment, and machinery used by Dillco as part of its business operations. The purchase price was based on an independent
appraisal  performed  in  December  2009.    At  the  time  of  this  transaction  100%  of  the  membership  interests  of  HNR  were  owned  by  Mr.
Herman  and  his  family  members  and  the  membership  interests  of  Enservco  LLC  (being  the  former  holding  company  of  Dillco  and  its
subsidiaries and related entities) were held by Mr. Herman (90%) and Mr. Kasch (10%).

2.           On December 31, 2009, Mr. Herman transferred and assigned his membership interest in Real GC to Heat Waves in
consideration for $174,382.  This price was determined based on the parties’ estimate of the fair value of Real GC and the real property
that it owns in Garden City, Kansas where an acid dock owned and utilized by Heat Waves is located.  At the time of the transaction Mr.
Herman was the sole member of Real GC, Enservco LLC (being the former holding company of Dillco and its subsidiaries and related
entities) was the sole member of Heat Waves, and the membership interests of Enservco LLC were held by Mr. Herman (90%) and Mr.
Kasch (10%).

3.           On December 31, 2009, Enservco LLC  (being  the  former  holding  company  of  Dillco  and  its  subsidiaries  and  related
entities) and Dillco entered into a Transfer and Contribution Agreement whereby Enservco LLC transferred, contributed, and conveyed all
of its rights and interests in:

§         The assets it acquired from HNR on December 31, 2009 for $1,065,623.
§  Its rights and interests (100%) in the membership interests in both Heat Waves and Trinidad Housing.

Trinidad Housing owns a housing unit in Trinidad, Colorado that at times was previously utilized by certain Dillco employees. At
the  time  of  the  transaction  Enservco  LLC  owned  100%  of  the  outstanding  stock  of  Dillco  itself  and  was  the  sole  member  of  Trinidad
Housing.   Further, the membership interests of Enservco LLC were held at that time by Mr. Herman (90%) and Mr. Kasch (10%).

4.           On March 1, 2010, Messrs. Herman and Kasch contributed their membership interests in HES to Enservco LLC (being
the former holding company of Dillco and its subsidiaries and related entities).  HES owns certain assets that it previously leased to Heat
Waves including a disposal well, trucks and construction equipment.  At the time of the transaction Mr. Herman held a 95% membership
interest in HES and Mr. Kasch a 5% membership interest.  Further, the membership interests of Enservco LLC were held by Mr. Herman
(90%) and Rick Kasch (10%).   Enservco LLC then contributed the HES membership interest to Dillco itself which in turn transferred the
interest to Heat Waves.  As a result, Heat Waves owns a 100% membership interest in HES.

5.                      On  March  15,  2010,  Mr.  Herman  sold  a  disposal  well  located  in  Oklahoma  to  HES  in  consideration  for

$100,000.  Payment of the purchase price (which was due on or before September 15, 2010) was made on August 11, 2010.

Audit Committee’s Pre-Approval Practice.

Inasmuch as the Company does not have an audit committee, the Company’s board of directors performs the functions of its audit
committee.    Section  10A(i)  of  the  1934  Act  prohibits  our  auditors  from  performing  audit  services  for  us  as  well  as  any  services  not
considered to be “audit services” unless such services are pre-approved by the board of directors (in lieu of the audit committee) or unless
the services meet certain de minimis standards.

The board of directors has adopted resolutions that provide that the board must:

Pre-approve all audit services that the auditor may provide to us or any subsidiary (including, without limitation, providing comfort
letters in connection with securities underwritings or statutory audits) as required by §10A(i)(1)(A) of the 1934 Act.

Pre-approve  all  non-audit  services  (other  than  certain de minimis  services  described  in  §10A(i)(1)(B)  of  the  1934  Act  that  the
auditors propose to provide to us or any of its subsidiaries.

The board of directors considers at each of its meetings whether to approve any audit services or non-audit services.  In some
cases,  management  may  present  the  request;  in  other  cases,  the  auditors  may  present  the  request.    The  board  of  directors  approved
EKS&H performing our audit for the 2010 fiscal year and approved EKS&H performing our audit for the 2011 fiscal year.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Stockholders
 Enservco Corporation
 Colorado Springs, Colorado

We  have  audited  the  accompanying  consolidated  balance  sheets  of  Enservco  Corporation  and  subsidiaries  (the  "Company")  as  of
December  31,  2010  and  2009,  and  the  related  consolidated  statements  of  operations,  stockholders'  equity  and  accumulated  other
comprehensive  income  (loss)  and  cash  flows  for  the  years  then  ended.  The  Company's  management  is  responsible  for  these
consolidated financial statements.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our
audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those
standards  require  that  we  plan  and  perform  the  audits  to  obtain  reasonable  assurance  about  whether  the  consolidated  financial
statements  are  free  of  material  misstatement.  The  Company  is  not  required  to  have,  nor  were  we  engaged  to  perform,  an  audit  of  its
internal  control  over  financial  reporting.    Our  audits  included  consideration  of  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  as  a  basis  for
designing  audit  procedures  that  are  appropriate  in  the  circumstances,  but  not  for  the  purpose  of  expressing  an  opinion  on  the
effectiveness  of  the  Company's  internal  control  over  financial  reporting.  Accordingly,  we  express  no  such  opinion.    Audits  also  include
examining,  on  a  test  basis,  evidence  supporting  the  amounts  and  disclosures  in  the  consolidated  financial  statements,  assessing  the
accounting  principles  used  and  significant  estimates  made  by  management,  as  well  as  evaluating  the  overall  financial  statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In  our  opinion,  the  consolidated  financial  statements  referred  to  above  present  fairly,  in  all  material  respects,  the  financial  position  of
Enservco Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the
years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America (“GAAP”).  All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The  Company  considers  all  highly  liquid  instruments  purchased  with  an  original  maturity  of  three  months  or  less  to  be  cash
equivalents.  The Company continually monitors its positions with, and the credit quality of, the financial institutions with which it invests.  

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are stated at the amount billed to customers.  The Company provides a reserve for doubtful accounts based on a
review  of  outstanding  receivables,  historical  collection  information  and  existing  economic  conditions.    The  provision  for  uncollectible
amounts  is  continually  reviewed  and  adjusted  to  maintain  the  allowance  at  a  level  considered  adequate  to  cover  future  losses.    The
allowance is management's best estimate of uncollectible amounts and is determined based on historical performance that is tracked by
the Company on an ongoing basis.  The losses ultimately incurred could differ materially in the near term from the amounts estimated in
determining the allowance.  As of December 31, 2010 and 2009 the Company has recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts balance
of  $110,000  and  $211,371,  respectively.  Also,  as  of  December  31,  2010  and  2009  the  Company  has  recorded  bad  debt  expense  of
$90,799 and $188,531, respectively.

Inventory

Inventory consists primarily of diesel fuel and chemicals that are used in the servicing of oil wells and is carried at the lower of cost or
market in accordance with the first in, first out method.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment consists of (1) trucks, trailers and pickups; (2) trucks that are in various stages of fabrication; (3) real property
which includes land and buildings used for office and shop facilities and wells used for the disposal of water; and (4) other equipment such
as tools used for maintaining and repairing vehicles, office furniture and fixtures, and computer equipment.  Property and equipment is
stated  at  cost  less  accumulated  depreciation.    The  Company  charges  repairs  and  maintenance  against  income  when  incurred  and
capitalizes  renewals  and  betterments,  which  extend  the  remaining  useful  life  or  expand  the  capacity  of  the  assets.    Depreciation  is
recorded on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of 5 to 30 years.

Leases

The  Company  conducts  a  major  part  of  its  operations  from  leased  facilities.    Each  of  these  leases  is  accounted  for  as  operating
leases.    Normally,  the  Company  records  rental  expense  on  its  operating  leases  over  the  lease  term  as  it  becomes  payable.  If  rental
payments  are  not  made  on  a  straight-line  basis,  per  terms  of  the  agreement,  the  Company  records  a  deferred  rent  expense  and
recognizes the rental expense on a straight-line basis throughout the lease term.  The majority of the Company’s facility leases contain
renewal clauses and expire through November 2013.  In most cases, management expects that in the normal course of business, leases
will be renewed or replaced by other leases.

During 2010, the Company entered into several capital leases in order to acquire trucks and equipment.  Each of these leases allow the
Company to retain title of the equipment leased through the lease agreements upon final payment of all principal and interest due.  The
Company  records  the  assets  and  liabilities  associated  with  these  leases  at  the  present  value  of  the  minimum  lease  payments  per  the
lease  agreement.    The  assets  and  associated  liabilities  are  separately  identified  in  the  balance  sheet.    The  assets  are  classified  as
Property  and  Equipment  and  the  liabilities  are  classified  as  current  and  long-term  liabilities  based  on  the  contractual  terms  of  the
agreements and their associated maturities.

Long-Lived Assets

The  Company  reviews  its  long-lived  assets  for  impairment  whenever  events  or  changes  in  circumstances  indicate  that  the
carrying amount of the asset may not be recovered.  The Company looks primarily to the discounted future cash flows in its assessment of
whether or not long-lived assets have been impaired.  No impairments were recorded during the periods ended December 31, 2010 or
2009.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when services are provided and collection is reasonably assured.

Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.
Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the diluted weighted average number of common shares. The diluted
weighted  average  number  of  common  shares  is  computed  using  the  treasury  stock  method  for  common  stock  that  may  be  issued  for
outstanding stock options. For 2010, the Company excluded outstanding Stock-based Option Awards and Warrants of 2,690,431,which
have a potentially dilutive impact on earnings per share.  For 2009, the Company did not have any outstanding shares of Option Awards
or Warrants as all outstanding shares for 2009 were issued through Aspen's 2008 Equity Plan as acquired through the Merger Transaction
(see Note 14). Dilution is not permitted if there are net losses during the period. As such, the Company does not show dilutive earnings
per share for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.

Concentrations

During  the  year  ended  December  31,  2010,  the  Company  had  accounts  receivable  from  two  customers  comprising  12%  of  accounts
receivable each and one customer comprising 16% of accounts receivable. Revenue from these three customers represented 3%, 4%,
and 13% of total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2010, respectively.

During  the  year  ended  December  31,  2009,  the  Company  had  accounts  receivable  from  two  customers  -  each  comprising  13%  of
accounts  receivable.  Revenue  from  these  two  customers  represented  5%  and  3%  of  total  revenues  for  the  year  ended  December  31,
2009.

Intangible Assets

Non-Competition Agreements

The  non-competition  agreements  with  the  sellers  of  Heat  Waves,  Hot  Oil  Express,  and  Dillco  have  finite  lives  and  are  being  amortized
over a five-year period (Note 5).  The Dillco  non-competition  agreement  was  written  off  in  June  2009  upon  the  death  of  the  contracted
party.  Amortization expense is expected to be recognized through June 2013.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost over the fair value of net assets acquired, including identified intangible assets, recorded in
connection  with  the  acquisitions  of  Heat  Waves.    Goodwill  is  not  amortized  but  is  assessed  for  impairment  at  least  annually.    No
impairment charge was recorded during the periods ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.

Marketable Securities

The  Company  determines  the  appropriate  classification  of  its  investments  in  debt  and  equity  securities  at  the  time  of  purchase  and
reevaluates such determinations at each balance sheet date. Debt securities are classified as held to maturity when the Company has the
positive intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity. Debt securities for which the Company does not have the intent or ability to
hold  to  maturity  are  classified  as  available  for  sale.  Held-to-maturity  securities  are  recorded  as  either  short  term  or  long  term  on  the
Balance  Sheet,  based  on  contractual  maturity  date  and  are  stated  at  amortized  cost.  Marketable  securities  that  are  bought  and  held
principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as trading securities and are reported at fair value, with unrealized
gains  and  losses  recognized  in  earnings.  Debt  and  marketable  equity  securities  not  classified  as  held  to  maturity  or  as  trading,  are
classified  as  available  for  sale,  and  are  carried  at  fair  market  value,  with  the  unrealized  gains  and  losses,  net  of  tax,  included  in  the
determination of comprehensive income and reported in stockholders’ equity.

The fair value of substantially all securities is determined by quoted market prices. The estimated fair value of securities for which there
are no quoted market prices is based on similar types of securities that are traded in the market.  See Note 9.

During 2010, the Company deemed it appropriate to reclassify its available-for-sale securities from Non-current Assets to Current Assets
for comparability purposes.  As such, at December 31, 2009, subsequent to the balance sheet date, the Company reclassified $97,034
out of Non-current Assets and into Current Assets.

In July 2010, the Company transferred all of its trading investments for Dillco to the available-for-sale category. Management determined
that it no longer had the positive intent to buy or hold the securities for the principal purpose of selling them in the near term nor was the
Company’s primary business involved in the active trading of securities.  See Note 9 below for further discussion.

For  2009,  The  Company’s  short-term  investments  comprise  equity  securities,  all  of  which  are  classified  as  trading  securities  and  are
carried at their fair value based on the quoted market prices of the securities at December 31, 2009. Net realized and unrealized gains
and losses on trading securities are included in net earnings. For purpose of determining realized gains and losses, the cost of securities
sold is based on specific identification.  See Note 9.

Loan Fees and Other Deferred Costs

In the normal course of business, the Company often enters into loan agreements with their primary lending institutions.  The majority of
these lending agreements require origination fees and other fees in the course of executing the agreements.  For all costs associated with
the  execution  of  the  lending  agreements,  the  Company  recognizes  these  as  capitalized  costs  and  defers  the  expensing  of  these  costs
over the term of the loan agreement.  These deferred costs are classified on the balance sheet as current or long-term assets based on
the contractual terms of the loan agreements.  All other costs not associated with the execution of the loan agreements are expensed as
incurred.

Income Taxes

Enservco LLC (which served as the holding company for the Company’s various operating entities until July 2010) and its subsidiaries,
with the exception of Dillco (which is a  C Corporation subject to federal and state income taxes), are limited liability companies and prior to
January  1,  2010  were  not  subject  to  federal  or  state  income  taxes.    On  January  1,  2010  Enservco  LLC  elected  to  be  taxed  as  a
corporation.  Therefore, prior to January 1, 2010 no provision or liability for income taxes has been included in the accompanying financial
statements, except for income taxes relating to the financial statements of Dillco and Aspen (named changed to Enservco on December
30, 2010), the current parent (or holding) company for the Company’s operations and assets.

The  Company  recognizes  deferred  tax  liabilities  and  assets  (Note  11)  based  on  the  differences  between  the  tax  basis  of  assets  and
liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in future years.  Deferred
tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary
differences  are  expected  to  be  recovered  or  settled.    The  effect  of  a  change  in  tax  rates  on  deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  will  be
recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.  Deferred income taxes are classified as a net current or non-current
asset or liability based on the classification of the related asset or liability for financial reporting purposes.  A deferred tax asset or liability
that is not related to an asset or liability for financial reporting is classified according to the expected reversal date.  The Company records
a  valuation  allowance  to  reduce  deferred  tax  assets  to  an  amount  that  the  Company  believes  is  more  likely  than  not  expected  to  be
realized.

Effective January 1, 2009, the Company accounts for any uncertainty in income taxes by recognizing the tax benefit from an uncertain tax
position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, based on the
technical  merits  of  the  position.    The  Company  measures  the  tax  benefits  recognized  in  the  financial  statements  from  such  a  position
based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate resolution.  The application of income
tax  law  is  inherently  complex.    Laws  and  regulations  in  this  area  are  voluminous  and  are  often  ambiguous.    As  such,  the  Company  is
required  to  make  many  subjective  assumptions  and  judgments  regarding  income  tax  exposures.    Interpretations  of  and  guidance
surrounding income tax law and regulations change over time and may result in changes to the Company’s subjective assumptions and
judgments  which  can  materially  affect  amounts  recognized  in  the  consolidated  balance  sheets  and  consolidated  statements  of
income.  The result of the reassessment of the Company’s tax positions did not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements.

When accounting for uncertainty in income taxes for those entities electing to be treated as limited liability companies for income
tax purposes, if taxing authorities were to disallow any tax positions taken by the Company, the additional income taxes, if any, would be
imposed on the member rather than the Company.  Accordingly, there would be no effect on the Company’s financial statements. 

Interest  and  penalties  associated  with  tax  positions  are  recorded  in  the  period  assessed  as  general  and  administrative
expenses.    No  interest  or  penalties  have  been  assessed  as  of  December  31,  2009  and  December  31,  2010.    The  Company  files  tax
returns in the United States, in the states of Colorado, Kansas, Pennsylvania and Utah.  The tax years 2007 through 2010 remain open to
examination in the taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject.

Fair Value

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted the authoritative guidance that applies to all financial assets and liabilities required to be
measured and reported on a fair value basis.  Beginning January 1, 2009, the Company also applied the guidance to non-financial assets
and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, including non-competition agreements and goodwill.  The guidance defines
fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between
market  participants  at  the  measurement  date.    The  guidance  establishes  a  hierarchy  for  inputs  used  in  measuring  fair  value  that
maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be
used when available.

Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained
from  sources  independent  of  the  Company.    Unobservable  inputs  are  inputs  that  reflect  the  Company’s  assumptions  of  what  market
participants  would  use  in  pricing  the  asset  or  liability  based  on  the  best  information  available  in  the  circumstances.    The  financial  and
nonfinancial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the reliability of the inputs as follows:

Level 1:
Level 2:
Level 3:

Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities that are observable for the asset or liability; or
Unobservable pricing inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources, such as discounted cash flow
models or valuations.

Stock-based Compensation

The  Company  accounts  for  stock-based  compensation  in  accordance  with  Accounting  Standards  Codification  718,  “Stock
Compensation” (“ASC 718”), which required companies to recognize compensation expense for the share-based payments based on the
estimated fair value of the awards. The effect of this guidance is described in Note 14.

Management Estimates

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America  requires  management  to  make  estimates  and  assumptions  that  affect  the  reported  amounts  of  assets  and  liabilities  and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

In January 2010, the FASB issued additional guidance regarding fair value measurements, specifically requiring the disclosure of transfers
in and out of Level 1 and 2 assets and liabilities (previously only required for those in Level 3) and more specific detailed disclosure of the
activity in Level 3 fair value measurements (on a gross basis rather than a net basis). The new guidance also clarifies existing disclosure
requirements regarding the level of disaggregation of asset and liability classes, as well as the valuation techniques and inputs used to
measure fair value for Level 2 and Level 3 fair value measurements. The disclosure requirement for transfers in and out of Level 1 and 2
assets and liabilities was effective for the Company on January 1, 2010, and had no impact on the consolidated financial statements. The
reporting of Level 3 activity on a gross basis will be effective for the company as of January 1, 2011, and is expected to not affect future
consolidated  financial  statements  as  the  Company  currently  does  not  hold  any  Level  3  assets  or  liabilities  nor  has  the  Company
historically purchased or assumed Level 3 assets or liabilities which represent a significant component of total assets or liabilities.

Note 3 – Reverse Merger and Acquisition

On June 24, 2010, Aspen entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “Agreement”) with  Dillco Fluid Service,
Inc.  (“Dillco”)  which  set  forth  the  terms  by  which  Dillco  merged  with  a  subsidiary  of  Aspen  (the  “Merger  Transaction”).    The  Merger
Transaction closed on July 27, 2010, and resulted in Dillco becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

                      As  part  of  the  Merger  Transaction,  Aspen  issued  14,519,244  shares  of  its  common  stock  to  the  shareholders  of  Dillco,  in

exchange for all of the issued and outstanding shares of Dillco (7,259,622 shares).

The  Merger  Transaction  was  treated  as  a  "reverse  acquisition"  for  accounting  purposes.  In  a  reverse  acquisition,
although  Aspen  was  considered  to  be  the  "legal  acquirer"  (that  is,  Aspen  (now  known  as  Enservco)  survived  as  the  parent
corporation),  Dillco  was  the  "accounting  acquirer"  (that  is  because  Dillco's  and  its  subsidiaries'  business  was  undeniably  the
more significant business). As a result, Dillco's financial statements became the financial statements of the surviving company.
Aspen's financial condition is additive to Dillco's financial statements for the period following the Merger Transaction.

Effective with the agreement, the Company’s stockholders’ equity was recapitalized as that of Aspen, or $72,596 from Dillco and
$36,298  from  Aspen  for  a  total  of  $108,894,  while  100%  of  the  assets  and  liabilities  of  Aspen  were  recorded  as  being  acquired  in  the
reverse acquisition.  See below for the Aspen net assets acquired by Dillco through the reverse merger acquisition:

Note 7 – Lines of Credit

See Note 15 regarding a refinancing of the Company’s debt subsequent to December 31, 2009, as the lines of credit discussed in this
Note 7 have been terminated.  The Company had a $4 million non-revolving line of credit and a $2 million revolving line of credit with a
bank.  The borrowings under both lines of credit were collateralized by substantially all assets of the Company and are guaranteed by the
members of the Company.  The lines of credit were subject to various covenants.

Non-Revolving Line of Credit

During  the  year  ended  December  31,  2009,  the  $4  million  non-revolving  line  of  credit  was  converted  to  a  five-year  term  note  (Note
8).  The $4 million non-revolving line of credit had outstanding borrowings of $0 as of December 31, 2009.  Interest on the non-revolving
line of credit is indexed to the London Inter Bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 2.31% per annum. Interest only payments were required
monthly  through  the  maturity  date  of  September  4,  2009  when  all  outstanding  principal  and  interest  was  due  and  at  which  time  the
Company converted the borrowings to a five-year term note (Note 8).

Revolving Line of Credit

The $2 million revolving line of credit had outstanding borrowings of $1,339,507 as of December 31, 2009.  The Company’s borrowings
under the revolving line of credit agreement were limited to the lesser of $2 million or 80% of Heat Waves and  Dillco  eligible  accounts
receivable, as defined.  The definition of eligible accounts receivable contained various restrictions, including the exclusion of receivables
which are 90 days or older.  During the year ended December 31, 2008 and until October 1, 2009 the interest rate was at the LIBOR rate
plus 3.07% on the borrowings.  Effective October 1, 2009, the Company amended the agreement and the interest rate changed to LIBOR
plus 4.00%.  Interest only payments were required monthly through the maturity date of July 2010.

As  of  December  31,  2009,  the  Company’s  derivative  financial  instruments  were  comprised  of  two  interest  rate  swap
agreements.    The  fair  value  of  the  interest  rate  swap  agreements  is  determined  based  on  both  observable  and  unobservable  pricing
inputs and therefore, the data sources utilized in this valuation model was considered Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy.

The  Company’s  estimates  of  fair  value  of  the  interest  rate  swaps  include  consideration  of  expected  future  interest  rates,
counterparty’s  credit  worthiness,  the  Company’s  credit  worthiness,  and  the  time  value  of  money.    The  consideration  of  these  factors
results in an estimated exit-price for each derivative asset or liability under a market place participant’s view.

Note 11 – Income Taxes

During and before the 2009 calendar (and fiscal) year, Enservco LLC and some of its subsidiaries had elected to be treated as
limited  liability  companies  for  income  tax  purposes.    Accordingly,  all  taxable  income  and  losses  for  these  entities  are  reported  in  the
respective  income  tax  returns  of  the  member  and  no  provision  for  income  taxes  has  been  recorded  in  the  accompanying  financial
statements.  Subsidiaries taxed as corporations, however, do record a provision for income taxes.

Pursuant to a reorganization of the Company effective as of December 31, 2009, the ownership of Heat Waves, Trinidad Housing,
Real GC and certain assets of HNR were contributed to Dillco.  Since Dillco is a C Corporation, this reorganization effectively resulted in a
conversion from a limited liability corporation to a C Corporation for the entities and the assets of HNR.  Accordingly, the corresponding net
deferred tax liabilities of Dillco were recorded as liabilities of the Company with a corresponding increase in deferred income tax expense.

Also,  pursuant  to  the  Merger  Transaction  with  Aspen  (a  C  Corporation)  at  July  27,  2010,  the  Company  has  recorded  all  net
deferred  tax  assets  contributed  by  Aspen  as  part  of  the  merger  transaction  as  an  increase  in  the  deferred  income  tax  benefit.    The
Company’s  sources  of  pre-tax  income  is  comprised  of  operations  in  the  United  States  only,  the  Company  has  no  foreign  source  of
income.

Income tax expense (benefit) attributable to income (loss) before income taxes for the years presented consists of:

In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or

all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future
taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled
reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment.

Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred
tax assets are deductible, management believes it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible
differences,  net  of  the  existing  valuation  allowances.  The  amount  of  the  deferred  tax  asset  considered  realizable,  however,  could  be
reduced in the near term if estimates of future taxable income during the carryforward period are reduced.

As of December 31, 2010, the Company had a valuation allowance of $114,000 which was associated with the Aspen upon the

Merger Transaction.  As of December 31, 2009, the Company did not have a valuation allowance.

As of December 31, 2010, the Company had Federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $889,280 to reduce future
taxable  income,  which  expire  after  2029.    As  of  December  31,  2010,  there  are  additional  State  net  operating  losses  relating  to  net
operating losses carryforward from Aspen upon the Merger Transaction and also additional State net operating losses associated with the
tax returns filed for Dillco.

On July 28, 2010, the Company entered into an agreement with an investor relations firm and as part of the compensation paid to this
firm,  pursuant  to  that  agreement,  granted  both  principals  of  the  firm  a  warrant  to  purchase  112,500  shares  each  of  the  Company’s
common stock; sum of warrants issued equaled 225,000 shares of common stock available for purchase. The warrants are exercisable at
$0.49 per share for a four year term. Each of the warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis. The warrants also provide that subject
to various conditions, the holders have piggy-back registration rights with respect to the shares of common stock that may be acquired
upon the exercise of the warrants.

The fair value of each warrant is estimated on the date of issuance using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The grants issued in
2010 were valued using the following weighted average assumptions: no dividend yield, expected volatility of 96.4%, risk free interest rate
of 1.07% and term of 4 years. Expected volatility was calculated based upon actual historical stock price movements over the most recent
periods through the date of issuance, equal to the expected warrant term. The warrant term was based on the life of the warrant as stated
on the warrant agreement.  With a stock price of $0.53 on the date of issuance, these warrants had a fair-value of $0.36 per share.  These
warrants are classified as equity instruments on the balance sheet at December 31, 2010.

As  of  December  31,  2010  the  Company  recognized  expense  (through  operating  expense  as  general  and  administrative  expense)  of
$81,771 on these warrants.

Note 14 – Stockholder’s Equity

2010 Option Plan

On  July  27,  2010  the  Company’s  Board  of  Directors  adopted  the  Aspen  Exploration  2010  Stock  Incentive  Plan  (the  “2010  Plan”).  The
aggregate number of shares of our common stock that may be issued through December 31, 2011 under all equity-based awards made
under the 2010 Plan is 3,500,000 shares.  The number of shares subject to the 2010 Plan may be reset each year, commencing January
1, 2012, based on the number of shares of stock then outstanding.

From July 27, 2010 through December 31, 2010 the Company granted options to acquire a total of 1,975,000 shares of common stock
granted pursuant to the 2010 Plan. A portion of these options are subject to vesting schedules.

The exercise price of the options granted under the 2010 Plan was determined based on the terms and conditions within the 2010 Plan
agreement unless specifically defined within the individual stock option agreements.   Pursuant to the 2010 Plan, four options to acquire
an  aggregate  of  975,000  shares  of  common  stock  were  granted  on  the  date  of  the  Merger  Transaction.    The  exercise  price  of  these
options was based on the closing price on the second business day following the Merger Transaction.  Subsequently, another option to
acquire 1,000,000 shares of common stock was granted and the exercise price was based on the ten day average closing price prior to
the grant date.  The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The
options issued under the 2010 Plan were valued using the following weighted average assumptions: no dividend yield, expected volatility
of 105.3%, risk free interest rate of 0.80% and expected term of 3.2 years. Expected volatility was calculated based upon actual historical
stock  price  movements  over  the  most  recent  periods  through  the  date  of  issuance,  equal  to  the  expected  option  term.  Expected  pre-
vesting forfeitures were assumed to be zero. The expected option term was calculated using the “simplified” method.

As  of  December  31,  2010  the  Company  recognized  expense  (through  operating  expense  as  general  and  administrative  expense)  of
$342,277  on  these  options.    As  of  December  31,  2010  the  Company  had  unrecognized  expense  of  $324,529  associated  with  these
options.  The options were classified as equity instruments on the balance sheet at December 31, 2010.

2008 Option Plan

Through its fiscal year ended June 30, 2009 Aspen had one equity compensation plan, the “2008 Equity Plan.” An aggregate of 1,000,000
common shares were reserved for issuance under the 2008 Equity Plan and in February 2008 the Board of Directors granted directors and
employees options to acquire 775,000 shares which vested based on meeting certain performance goals, exercisable at $2.14 per share
through February 27, 2013.  Of these, all but 150,428 have expired as of December 31, 2010 for failure to meet established performance
goals  or  as  a  result  of  termination  of  employment.    As  of  December  31,  2010,  the  Company  did  not  have  any  unrecognized  expense
associated with these options.

The fair value of each option grant is estimated  on  the  date  of  grant  using  the  Black-Scholes  option  pricing  model.  The  options  issued
under the 2008 Equity Plan were valued using the following weighted average assumptions: no dividend yield, expected volatility of 58%,
risk free interest rate of 2.25% and expected term of 3.3 years. Expected volatility was calculated based upon actual historical stock price
movements  over  the  most  recent  periods  through  the  date  of  issuance,  equal  to  the  expected  option  term.  Expected  pre-vesting
forfeitures were assumed to be zero. The expected option term was calculated using the “simplified” method.

Pursuant  to  the  2008  Equity  Plan,  on  February  15,  2010,  Aspen’s  Board  of  Directors  granted  options  to  certain  Aspen  employees  and
consultants. The options were granted to persons who remained with Aspen and had provided (and were then expected to continue to
provide) valuable services to Aspen, and to help align interests of the recipients with those of Aspen and its stockholders.  In total, Aspen
granted options to acquire 350,000 shares of its common stock which were exercisable at $0.4125 per share (equal to 125% of the closing
price on the business day after the day the Company filed its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2009).

Each of the options expires on February 15, 2015. All of the options granted vested only upon a “change of control” (which term is defined
in  each  recipient’s  option  agreement),  and  then  only  if  Aspen  had  working  capital  of  at  least  $3,000,000  on  the  date  of  the  change  of
control event. This vesting event was achieved for all of the 350,000 options as a result of the Merger Transaction on July 27, 2010.  On
July  27,  2010,  the  Company  terminated  the  2008  Equity  Plan,  although  such  termination  did  not  terminate  or  otherwise  affect  the
contractual rights of persons who hold options to acquire common stock under the 2008 Equity Plan.

As the Merger Transaction occurred on July 27, 2010, the stock compensation expense associated with these 350,000 options was not
recognized by the Company on its consolidated financial statements subsequent to July 27, 2010.

Note 15 – Debt Refinance

On  June  2,  2010,  Dillco  entered  into  two  debt  agreements  with  a  bank  to  refinance  certain  debt  obligations  owed  to  a  previous
lender.  The terms of the first of these agreements include:

(1) principal amount of $9,100,000;

(2) payment of interest only in monthly installments from July 2010 to June 2011;

(3) a one-time, $1,000,000 principal payment due July 2011;

(4) beginning July 2011, fixed monthly principal and interest installments of $188,700 until June 2015 at which time the remaining
principal becomes due;

(5) a variable rate interest of PRIME plus 1% (not to be less than 5.5%);

(6) collateral consists of the equipment, inventory, and accounts of the Company;

(7) the obligation  is guaranteed by a person who is both an officer and director of the of the Company, and the obligation is also
guaranteed by Aspen; and

(8) the loan is subject to certain financial covenants.

When  the  Company  negotiated  its  loan  agreements  with  the  bank  as  part  of  the  debt  refinancing  discussed  above,  the  bank
insisted that they contain cross default provisions so that a default by Michael D. Herman (the Company’s principal stockholder, a director,
and  chief  executive  officer)  on  his  personal  indebtedness  with  the  bank  would  constitute  a  default  on  the  bank’s  loans  to  Dillco.    As  a
result  of  these  cross-default  provisions,  should  Mr.  Herman  default  on  any  of  the  other  debt  he  has  through  the  bank  in  his  personal
capacity, the bank could declare Dillco’s loans in default and call upon the Company’s guarantee with respect to Dillco’s loans (but not Mr.
Herman’s separate obligations).  Upon an event of default, Dillco might not be able to immediately satisfy its obligations to the bank which
would likely adversely impair the Company’s ability to conduct its business operations and pay its other obligations necessary to maintain
its business operations.

The Company incurred $30,030 in origination fees and approximately $19,700 in additional fees for the issuance of this term loan.

The  terms  of  the  second  loan  agreement  are  the  same  except  that  it  is  a  one  year,  $2,000,000  revolving  line  of  credit  subject  to  a
borrowing  base  defined  as  the  lesser  of  $2,000,000  or  80%  of  defined  eligible  accounts  receivable.    At  December  31,  2010  the
outstanding balance on the revolving line of credit was $1,050,000.  The Company incurred $10,000 in origination fees for the issuance of
this line of credit.

Note 16– Related Party Transactions

The  following  sets  forth  information  regarding  transactions  between  the  Company  (and  its  subsidiaries)  and  its  officers,  directors  and
significant stockholders since January 1, 2009.  Any transactions between Aspen and its officers, directors, and significant stockholders
occurring in Aspen’s last two fiscal years prior to the Merger Transaction date was disclosed in Aspen’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for
its fiscal year ended June 30, 2010.

Loan Transactions

1.     On November 21, 2009, Mr. Herman loaned $500,000 to Heat Waves pursuant to the terms of a promissory note (the “Heat
Waves  Note”).    The  Heat  Waves  Note  accrues  interest  at  3%  per  annum  and  is  due  in  full  by  December  31,  2018.    As  part  of  loan
agreements  with  the  Company’s  primary  lending  institution,  Mr.  Herman  agreed  to  subordinate  the  debt  represented  by  this  note  to  all
obligations  to  the  bank.    Interest  is  to  be  paid  annually  in  arrears  but  due  to  the  subordination,  interest  is  being  accrued  and  as  of
December 31, 2010 accrued interest was $18,845.

2.      On March 31, 2010, Mr. Herman loaned an additional $1,200,000 to Heat Waves pursuant to the terms of a promissory note
(the “Heat Waves Note II”).  The Heat Waves Note II accrues interest at 3% per annum and is due in full by December 31, 2018.  As part
of the loan agreements with the Company’s primary lending institution, Mr. Herman agreed to subordinate the debt represented by this
note to all obligations to the bank.  Interest is to be paid annually in arrears but due to the subordination, interest is being accrued and as
of December 31, 2010 accrued interest was $30,360.

3.      On July 27, 2010, Enservco (as the parent corporation) became the guarantor of Dillco’s indebtedness to the Company’s

primary lending institution.

Asset Transfer and Sales; Membership Interest Transfer and Sales

1.                      On  December  31,  2009,  HNR  sold  certain  assets  to  Dillco  for  $1,065,623.    These  assets  included  land,  buildings,
vehicles, equipment, and machinery used by Dillco as part of its business operations. The purchase price was based on an independent
appraisal  performed  in  December  2009.    At  the  time  of  this  transaction  100%  of  the  membership  interests  of  HNR  were  owned  by  Mr.
Herman  and  his  family  members  and  the  membership  interests  of  Enservco  LLC  (being  the  former  holding  company  of  Dillco  and  its
subsidiaries and related entities) were held by Mr. Herman (90%) and Mr. Kasch (10%).

2.           On December 31, 2009, Mr. Herman transferred and assigned his membership interest in Real GC to Heat Waves in
consideration for $174,382.  This price was determined based on the parties’ estimate of the fair value of Real GC and the real property
that it owns in Garden City, Kansas where an acid dock owned and utilized by Heat Waves is located.  At the time of the transaction Mr.
Herman was the sole member of Real GC, Enservco LLC (being the former holding company of Dillco and its subsidiaries and related
entities) was the sole member of Heat Waves, and the membership interests of Enservco LLC were held by Mr. Herman (90%) and Mr.
Kasch (10%).

3.           On December 31, 2009, Enservco LLC  (being  the  former  holding  company  of  Dillco  and  its  subsidiaries  and  related
entities) and Dillco entered into a Transfer and Contribution Agreement whereby Enservco LLC transferred, contributed, and conveyed all
of its rights and interests in:

§          The assets it acquired from HNR on December 31, 2009 for $1,065,623.
§          Its rights and interests (100%) in the membership interests in both Heat Waves and Trinidad Housing.

Trinidad Housing owns a housing unit in Trinidad, Colorado that at times was previously utilized by certain Dillco employees. At
the  time  of  the  transaction  Enservco  LLC  owned  100%  of  the  outstanding  stock  of  Dillco  itself  and  was  the  sole  member  of  Trinidad
Housing.   Further, the membership interests of Enservco LLC were held at that time by Mr. Herman (90%) and Mr. Kasch (10%).

4.           On March 1, 2010, Messrs. Herman and Kasch contributed their membership interests in HES to Enservco LLC (being
the former holding company of Dillco and its subsidiaries and related entities).  HES owns certain assets that it previously leased to Heat
Waves including a disposal well, trucks and construction equipment.  At the time of the transaction Mr. Herman held a 95% membership
interest in HES and Mr. Kasch a 5% membership interest.  Further, the membership interests of Enservco LLC were held by Mr. Herman
(90%) and Rick Kasch (10%).   Enservco LLC then contributed the HES membership interest to Dillco itself which in turn transferred the
interest to Heat Waves.  As a result, Heat Waves owns a 100% membership interest in HES.

5.                      On  March  15,  2010,  Mr.  Herman  sold  a  disposal  well  located  in  Oklahoma  to  HES  in  consideration  for

$100,000.  Payment of the purchase price (which was due on or before September 15, 2010) was made on August 11, 2010.

Note 17 – Subsequent Events

Subsequent  to  the  balance  sheet  date,  on  various  dates  throughout  the  first  quarter  of  2011  (Q1  2011),  the  Company  purchased  an
additional $187,898 in fixed assets which were funded through the equipment loan. Of these $187,898 in purchases subsequent to the
balance  sheet  date,  $116,648  were  included  in  fixed  assets  as  Truck  and  Vehicles  and  the  remaining  $71,250  were  included  in  Fixed
Assets as Trucks in Process.

Also subsequent to the balance sheet date, on or around January 15, 2011, the Company disposed of four water transports and a pick-up
truck.  The original cost of these fixed assets was approximately $219,030.  The accumulated depreciation at the point of disposal was
approximately  $171,325.    The  Company  received  proceeds  of  approximately  $1,845  for  the  disposed  assets.    As  such,  the  Company
recognized a loss on disposal of fixed assets of approximately $45,860 in Q1 2011.
