Forward-LookingStatements

Certain statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of applicable U.S. securities legislation. Additionally, forward-looking statements may be made orally or in press releases, conferences, reports, on our website or otherwise, in the future, by us or on our behalf. Such statements are generally identifiable by the terminology used such as “plans,” “expects,” “estimates,” “budgets,” “intends,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “projects,” “indicates,” “targets,” “objective,” “could,” “should,” “may” or other similar words.

By their very nature, forward-looking statements require us to make assumptions that may not materialize or that may not be accurate. Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results, levels of activity and achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such statements, including the factors discussed under Item 1A. Risk Factors in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the following: fluctuations in and volatility of the market prices for oil and natural gas products; the ability to produce and transport oil and natural gas; the results of exploration and development drilling and related activities; global economic conditions, particularly in the countries in which we carry on business, especially economic slowdowns; actions by governmental authorities including increases in taxes, legislative and regulatory initiatives related to fracture stimulation activities, changes in environmental and other regulations, and renegotiations of contracts; political uncertainty, including actions by insurgent groups or other conflicts; the negotiation and closing of material contracts; future capital requirements and the availability of financing; estimates and economic assumptions used in connection with our acquisitions; risks associated with drilling, operating and decommissioning wells; actions of third-party co-owners of interests in properties in which we also own an interest; our ability to effectively integrate companies and properties that we acquire; our limited operating history; our history of operating losses; our lack of insurance coverage; and the other factors discussed in other documents that we file with or furnish to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC” or the “Commission”). The impact of any one factor on a particular forward-looking statement is not determinable with certainty as such factors are interdependent upon other factors and our course of action would depend upon our assessment of the future, considering all information then available. In that regard, any statements as to: future oil or natural gas production levels; capital expenditures; the allocation of capital expenditures to exploration and development activities; sources of funding for our capital expenditure programs; drilling of new wells; demand for oil and natural gas products; expenditures and allowances relating to environmental matters; dates by which certain areas will be developed or will come on-stream; expected finding and development costs; future production rates; ultimate recoverability of reserves, including the ability to convert probable and possible reserves to proved reserves; dates by which transactions are expected to close; future cash flows, uses of cash flows, collectability of receivables and availability of trade credit; expected operating costs; changes in any of the foregoing and other statements using forward-looking terminology are forward-looking statements, and there can be no assurance that the expectations conveyed by such forward-looking statements will, in fact, be realized.

Although we believe that the expectations conveyed by the forward-looking statements are reasonable based on information available to us on the date such forward-looking statements were made, no assurances can be given as to future results, levels of activity, achievements or financial condition.

Readers should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement and should recognize that the statements are predictions of future results that may not occur as anticipated. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements and from historical results due to the risks and uncertainties described above, as well as others not now anticipated. The foregoing statements are not exclusive and further information concerning us, including factors that potentially could materially affect our financial results, may emerge from time to time. We do not intend to update forward-looking statements to reflect actual results or changes in factors or assumptions affecting such forward-looking statements.

PARTI

ITEM1. BUSINESS

Nameand Organization

Trillion Energy International Inc. (formerly Park Place Energy, Inc.) and its consolidated subsidiaries, (“Trillion Energy”, “Company”, “we” or “our”) is headquartered out of Turan Gunes with operations based primarily from Turkey at Turan Gunes Bulvari, Park Oran Ofis Plaza, 180-y, Daire:45, Kat:14, 06450, Oran, Cankaya, Ankara, Turkey. The Company also has registered offices in Canada and Bulgaria. The Company was incorporated in Delaware in 2015.

General

Trillion Energy International Inc. is focused on it’s oil and gas producing assets in Turkey and a coal bed methane exploration license in Bulgaria.

Turkey

On January 18, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of three oil and gas exploration and production companies operating in Turkey (the “Tiway Companies”). As a result of the acquisition of the Tiway Companies, the Company now owns interests in the producing Cendere oil field, in the producing South Akcakoca Sub-Basin (“SASB”) gas field, and in the shut in Bakuk gas field all in Turkey. We have changed the name of the Tiway Companies to include Park Place in the name so hereinafter we will refer to them as the “PPE Turkey”.

PPE Turkey own 19.6% interest in the onshore Cendere oil field except three wells where PPE Turkey own 9.8% interest. PPE owns 49% working interest in the offshore SASB.

At December 31, 2019, net production to the PPE Turkey from such fields was 181 barrels of oil equivalent per day or Boe/d. For the year 2019, net production to the PPE Turkey averaged 191 Boe/d. Due to the acquisition of the PPE Turkey , the Company is now a qualified oil and gas operator in Turkey based in Ankara. With this base of operations in Turkey and its experienced management team, the Company is poised to exploit these assets and for further growth in the region.

At December 31, 2019, the gross oil production rate for the producing wells in Cendere was 702 bbls/day; the average daily 2019 gross production rate for the field was 790 bbls/day. At the end of April 2020, oil is currently sold at a price of approximately US$18 per barrel for a negative netback per barrel of approximately US$9. At year-end 2019, the Cendere field was producing 115 barrels of oil per day net to the PPE Turkey; and averaged 127 barrels per day during 2019 net to the PPE Turkey

SASB has four producing fields, each with a production platform plus subsea pipelines that connect the fields to an onshore gas plant. The SASB fields are located off the north coast of Turkey towards the western end of the Black Sea. Total gross production to date from the four fields is in excess of 40 Bcf.

| 4 |

| --- |

At December 31, 2019, the gross gas production rate for the 4 producing wells in SASB was 0.807 MMcfd; the average daily 2019 gross production rate for the field was 1.04 MMcfd. At the end of April 2020, gas is currently sold at a price of approximately US$6.20 per Mcf for a netback per Mcf of approximately US$3.23. The low net back is a result of relatively lower production levels being incurred due to natural decline, down approximately 96% since peak production rates occurred during 2011, given no new wells have been drilled since 2011. The Company anticipates that as new wells come online, the netback will increase substantially.

With the acquisition of the PPE Turkey, the Company also acquired another oil and gas asset, a 50% operated interest in the Bakuk gas field located near the Syrian border. The Bakuk field is shut-in.

BulgariaLicense

In October of 2010, the Company was awarded an exploration permit for the “Vranino 1-11 Block”, a 98,205 acre oil and gas exploration land located in Dobrudja Basin, Bulgaria, by the Bulgarian Counsel of Ministers. On April 1, 2014, the Company entered into an Agreement for Crude Oil and Natural Gas Prospecting and Exploration in the Vranino 1-11 Block with the Ministry of Economy and Energy of Bulgaria (the “License Agreement”). The initial term of the License Agreement is five years. This five-year period will commence once the Bulgarian regulatory authorities approve of the Company’s work programs for the permit area. The License Agreement (or applicable legislation) provides for possible extension periods for up to five additional years during the exploration phase, as well as the conversion of the License Agreement to an exploitation concession, which can last for up to 35 years. Under the License Agreement, the Company will submit a yearly work program that is subject to the approval of the Bulgarian regulatory authorities.

| 5 |

| --- |

Before the license for the Bulgarian CBM project is “effective”, the Company’s overall work program and first year annual work program must be approved by both the Bulgarian environmental ministry and the energy ministry. On August 26, 2014, the Bulgarian environmental agency approved the Company’s overall work program and first year annual work program. A number of parties appealed the decision of the environmental agency and an appeal proceeding was commenced before a three-judge administrative panel. The three-judge panel issued a decision on February 3, 2017 in which it ruled that the environmental agency had failed to follow its own regulations in approving the Company’s work programs. Both the environmental agency and the Company have appealed the decision to a five-judge panel whose decision will be final. A final decision was issued in favor of the Company during 2017, such that the validity of the process resulting in the permit to the Company was upheld.

Patentsand Trademarks

We do not own, either legally or beneficially, any patent or trademark.

Researchand Development Expenditures

We have not incurred any research or development expenditures since our incorporation.

GovernmentRegulation

Our current or future operations, including exploration and development activities on our properties, require permits from various governmental authorities, and such operations are and will be governed by laws and regulations of the jurisdiction in which we are conducting business. These laws and regulations concern exploration, development, production, exports, taxes, labor laws and standards, occupational health, waste disposal, toxic substances, land use, environmental protection and other matters. Compliance with these requirements may prove to be difficult and expensive. Due to our international operations, we are subject to the following issues and uncertainties that can affect our operations adversely:

●	the<br> risk of expropriation, nationalization, war, revolution, political instability, border disputes, renegotiation or modification<br> of existing contracts, and import, export and transportation regulations and tariffs;
●	laws<br> of foreign governments affecting our ability to fracture stimulate oil or natural gas wells, such as the legislation enacted<br> in Bulgaria in January 2012, discussed in greater detail below;
●	the<br> risk of not being able to procure residency and work permits for our expatriate personnel;
●	taxation<br> policies, including royalty and tax increases and retroactive tax claims;
●	exchange<br> controls, currency fluctuations and other uncertainties arising out of foreign government sovereignty over international operations;
●	laws<br> and policies of the United States affecting foreign trade, taxation and investment;
●	the<br> possibility of being subjected to the exclusive jurisdiction of foreign courts in connection with legal disputes and the possible<br> inability to subject foreign persons to the jurisdiction of courts in the United States; and
●	the<br> possibility of restrictions on repatriation of earnings or capital from foreign countries.

Permitsand Licenses. In order to carry out exploration and development of oil and natural gas interests or to place these interests into commercial production, we may require certain licenses and permits from various governmental authorities. There can be no guarantee that we will be able to obtain all necessary licenses and permits that may be required. In addition, such licenses and permits are subject to change and there can be no assurances that any application to renew any existing licenses or permits will be approved.

| 6 |

| --- |

Repatriationof Earnings. Currently, there are no restrictions on the repatriation of earnings or capital to foreign entities from Bulgaria. In Turkey, funds which are invested in the Turkish entities and which are registered with the Turkish authorities may be repatriated without tax. There is a 10% tax on dividends on profits which are transferred out of Turkey. However, there can be no assurance that any such restrictions on repatriation of earnings or capital from the aforementioned countries or any other country where we may invest will not be imposed, changed or increased in the future.

Environmental. The oil and natural gas industry is subject to extensive environmental regulations. Environmental regulations establish standards respecting health, safety and environmental matters and place restrictions and prohibitions on emissions of various substances produced concurrently with oil and natural gas. The regulatory requirements cover the handling and disposal of drilling and production waste products and waste created by water and air pollution control procedures. These regulations may have an impact on the selection of drilling locations and facilities, potentially resulting in increased capital expenditures. In addition, environmental legislation may require those wells and production facilities to be abandoned and sites reclaimed to the satisfaction of local authorities. Such regulation has increased the cost of planning, designing, drilling, operating and, in some instances, abandoning wells. We are committed to complying with environmental and operation legislation wherever we operate.

There has been a recent surge in interest among the media, government regulators and private citizens concerning the possible negative environmental and geological effects of fracture stimulation. Some have alleged that fracture stimulation results in the contamination of aquifers and may even contribute to seismic activity. In January 2012, the government of Bulgaria enacted legislation that banned the fracture stimulation of oil and natural gas wells in Bulgaria and imposed large monetary penalties on companies that violate that ban. Such legislation or regulations could impact our ability to drill and complete wells, and could increase the cost of planning, designing, drilling, completing and operating wells. We are committed to complying with legislation and regulations involving fracture stimulation wherever we operate.

Such laws and regulations not only expose us to liability for our own negligence but may also expose us to liability for the conduct of others or for our actions that were in compliance with all applicable laws at the time those actions were taken. We may incur significant costs as a result of environmental accidents, such as oil spills, natural gas leaks, ruptures, or discharges of hazardous materials into the environment, including clean-up costs and fines or penalties. Additionally, we may incur significant costs in order to comply with environmental laws and regulations and may be forced to pay fines or penalties if we do not comply.

Competition

Bulgaria imports nearly all of their natural gas requirements; Turkey imports a substantial quantity of the same. Both countries encourage domestic production as a way to reduce imports and increase energy security. In Turkey, natural gas is imported from a number of countries so there is a vibrant market for natural gas produced in the country. In Bulgaria, currently one company, Gazprom, supplies Bulgaria with virtually all of its natural gas being marketed and consumed in Bulgaria through a pipeline that runs through Ukraine from Russia. On a regional level, we compete for license blocks and capital with other oil and gas exploration companies and independent producers who are actively seeking oil and natural gas properties throughout the world, but in particular, in Southeast Europe, Turkey and countries in the immediate vicinity.

The principal area of competition is encountered in the financial ability of our Company to acquire acreage positions and drill wells to explore for oil and natural gas, then, if warranted, install production equipment. Competition for the acquisition of oil and gas license areas is high in Europe. Therefore, we may or may not be successful in acquiring additional blocks in the face of this competition. Presently, we are not seeking additional license blocks.

| 7 |

| --- |

From a general standpoint, we operate in the highly competitive areas of oil and natural gas exploration, development, production and acquisition with a substantial number of other companies, including U.S.-based and international companies doing business in each of the countries in which we operate. We face intense competition from independent, technology-driven companies as well as from both major and other independent oil and natural gas companies in each of the following areas:

●	seeking<br> oil and natural gas exploration licenses and production licenses and leases;
●	acquiring<br> desirable producing properties or new leases for future exploration;
●	marketing<br> oil and natural gas production;
●	integrating<br> new technologies; and
●	contracting<br> for drilling services and equipment and securing the expertise necessary to develop and operate properties.

Many of our competitors have substantially greater financial, managerial, technological and other resources than we do. To the extent competitors are able to pay more for properties than we are paying, we will be at a competitive disadvantage. Further, many of our competitors enjoy technological advantages over us and may be able to implement new technologies more rapidly than we can. Our ability to explore for and produce oil and natural gas prospects and to acquire additional properties in the future will depend upon our ability to successfully conduct operations, implement advanced technologies, evaluate and select suitable properties and consummate transactions in this highly competitive environment.

Employees,Officers and Directors

As of December 31, 2019, the Company has nine employees in Turkey, and two in North America and one in Bermuda. As of December 31, 2019, our business is generally conducted through our officers and directors of the Company. A description of officers and directors can be found in Item 10.

ITEM1A. RISK FACTORS

RisksRelated to Our Business and the Oil and Gas Industry

Wehave a history of losses and may not achieve consistent profitability in the future.

We have incurred losses in prior years. We will need to generate and sustain increased revenue levels in future periods in order to become consistently profitable, and even if we do, we may not be able to maintain or increase our level of profitability. We may incur losses in the future for a number of reasons, including risks described herein, unforeseen expenses, difficulties, complications and delays, and other unknown risks.

Ourexploration, development and production activities may not be profitable or achieve our expected returns.

The future performance of our business will depend upon our ability to develop oil and natural gas reserves that are economically recoverable. Success will depend upon our ability to develop prospects from which oil and natural gas reserves are ultimately discovered in commercial quantities. Without successful exploration activities, we will not be able to develop oil and natural gas reserves or generate revenues. There are no assurances that oil and natural gas reserves will be discovered in sufficient quantities to enable us to recover our exploration and development costs or sustain our business.

The successful development of oil and natural gas properties requires an assessment of recoverable reserves, future oil and natural gas prices and operating costs, potential environmental and other liabilities, and other factors. Such assessments are inherently uncertain. In addition, no assurance can be given that our exploration and development activities will result in the discovery of reserves. Operations may be curtailed, delayed or canceled as a result of lack of adequate capital and other factors, such as lack of availability of rigs and other equipment, title problems, weather, compliance with governmental regulations or price controls, mechanical difficulties, or unusual or unexpected formations, pressures and/or work interruptions. In addition, the costs of exploration and development may materially exceed our internal estimates.

Wemay be unable to acquire or develop additional reserves, which would reduce our cash flow and income.

In general, production from oil and natural gas properties declines over time as reserves are depleted, with the rate of decline depending on reservoir characteristics. If we are not successful in our exploration and development activities or in acquiring properties containing reserves, our reserves will generally decline as reserves are produced. Our oil and natural gas production will be highly dependent upon our ability to economically find, develop or acquire reserves in commercial quantities.

Our future oil and natural gas reserves, production, and cash flows, if any, are highly dependent upon us successfully exploiting known gas resources and proving reserves. A future increase in our reserves will depend not only on our ability to flow economic rates of natural gas and potentially develop the reserves we may have from time to time, but also on our ability to select and acquire suitable producing properties or prospects and technologies for exploitation. There are no absolute guarantees that our future efforts will result in the economic development of natural gas.

To the extent cash flow from operations is reduced, either by a decrease in prevailing prices for oil and natural gas or an increase in finding and development costs, and external sources of capital become limited or unavailable, our ability to make the necessary capital investment to maintain or expand our asset base of oil and natural gas reserves would be impaired. Even with sufficient available capital, our future exploration and development activities may not result in additional reserves, and we might not be able to drill productive wells at acceptable costs.

Thedevelopment of prospective resources is uncertain. In addition, there are no assurances that our resources will be converted toproved reserves.

At December 31, 2019, all of our Bulgarian oil and gas resources are classified as prospective resources as are a portion of the SASB resources. There is significant uncertainty attached to prospective resource estimates. The discovery, determination and exploitation of such resources require significant capital expenditures and successful drilling and exploration programs. We may not be able to raise the additional capital that we need to develop these resources. There is no certainty that we will be able to convert prospective resources into proved reserves or that these resources will be economically viable or technically feasible to produce.

| 9 |

| --- |

Theestablishment of proved reserves is subjective and subject to many uncertainties.

In general, estimates of recoverable natural resources are based upon a number of factors and assumptions made as of the date on which the resource estimates were determined, such as geological and engineering estimates, which have inherent uncertainties, and the assumed effects of regulation by governmental agencies and estimates of future commodity prices and operating costs, all of which may vary considerably from actual results. All such estimates are, to some degree, uncertain and classifications of resources are only attempts to define the degree of uncertainty involved. For these reasons, estimates of the recoverable natural resources, the classification of such resources based on risk of recovery, prepared by different engineers or by the same engineers at different times, may vary substantially.

Wecould lose permits or licenses on certain of our properties unless the permits or licenses are extended or we commence productionand convert the permits or licenses to production leases or concessions.

Our Turkey producing properties are held in the form of production leases. Initially, our Bulgarian property will be held in the form of a license agreement. Future properties may be held in the form of permits, leases and/or license agreements that contain expiration dates and specific requirements and stipulations. If our permits or licenses expire, we will lose our right to explore and develop the related properties. If we fail to meet specific requirements of the permits, leases and/or license agreements, we may be in breach and may lose our rights or be liable for damages. Our drilling plans for these areas are subject to change based upon various factors, including factors that are beyond our control. Such factors include drilling results, oil and natural gas prices, the availability and cost of capital, drilling and production costs, availability of drilling services and equipment, gathering system and pipeline transportation constraints, and regulatory approvals.

Weare subject to political, economic and other risks and uncertainties in the foreign countries in which we operate.

Any international operations performed may expose us to greater risks than those associated with more developed markets. Due to our foreign operations, we are subject to the following issues and uncertainties that can adversely affect our operations in Bulgaria or other countries in which we may operate properties in the future:

●	the<br> risk of, and disruptions due to, expropriation, nationalization, war, revolution, election outcomes, economic instability,<br> political instability, or border disputes;
●	the<br> uncertainty of local contractual terms, renegotiation or modification of existing contracts and enforcement of contractual<br> terms in disputes before local courts;
●	the<br> risk of import, export and transportation regulations and tariffs, including boycotts and embargoes;
●	the<br> risk of not being able to procure residency and work permits for our expatriate personnel;
●	the<br> requirements or regulations imposed by local governments upon local suppliers or subcontractors, or being imposed in an unexpected<br> and rapid manner;
●	taxation<br> and revenue policies, including royalty and tax increases, retroactive tax claims and the imposition of unexpected taxes or<br> other payments on revenues;
●	exchange<br> controls, currency fluctuations and other uncertainties arising out of foreign government sovereignty over foreign operations;
●	laws<br> and policies of the United States and of the other countries in which we may operate affecting foreign trade, taxation and<br> investment, including anti- bribery and anti-corruption laws;
●	the<br> possibility of being subjected to the exclusive jurisdiction of foreign courts in connection with legal disputes and the possible<br> inability to subject foreign persons to the jurisdiction of courts in the United States; and
●	the<br> possibility of restrictions on repatriation of earnings or capital from foreign countries.

| 10 |

| --- |

There can be no assurance that changes in conditions or regulations in the future will not affect our profitability or ability to operate in such markets.

TheCompany will comply with regulations adopted in Bulgaria adopting a moratorium on fracture stimulation activities, and the inabilityto conduct such activities could result in increased costs and additional operating restrictions or delays.

Fracture stimulation is a commonly used process for the completion of oil and natural gas wells and involves the pressurized injection of water, sand and chemicals into rock formations to stimulate production. Recently, there has been increased public concern regarding the potential environmental impact of fracture stimulation activities. Bulgaria has adopted regulations banning all fracture stimulation activities in Bulgaria. Consequently, the Company will not conduct such activities in Bulgaria.

Weare subject to foreign currency risks.

Oil and gas operations in Turkey will generate revenues in Turkish Lira, while expenses will be incurred in Turkish Lira or U.S. dollars. Gas production in Turkey will generate Turkish Lira. Oil and gas operations in Bulgaria will generate revenues in Bulgarian Leva, while expenses will be incurred in Bulgarian Leva, U.S. dollars or Euros. Gas production in Bulgaria will generate Bulgarian Leva. As a result, any fluctuations of these currencies may result in a change in reported revenues, if any, that our projects could generate if they commence production. Accordingly, our future financial results are subject to risk based on changes to foreign currency rates.

Ifwe lose the services of our management and key consultants, then our plan of operations may be delayed.

Our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued service of our executive management, directors and consultants. Losing the services of one or more key individuals could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s prospective business until replacements are found.

Drillingfor and producing oil and natural gas are high-risk activities with many uncertainties that could adversely affect our business,financial condition or results of operations.

Our future success depends on the success of our exploration, development and production activities in our prospects. These activities will be subject to numerous risks beyond our control, including the risk that we will be unable to economically produce our reserves or be able to find commercially productive oil or natural gas reservoirs. Our decisions to purchase, explore, develop or otherwise exploit prospects or properties will depend in part on the evaluation of data obtained through geophysical and geological analyses, production data and engineering studies, the results of which are often inconclusive or subject to varying interpretations. The cost of drilling, completing and operating wells is often uncertain before drilling commences. Overruns in budgeted expenditures are common risks that can make a particular project unprofitable. Further, many factors may curtail, delay or prevent drilling operations, including:

●	unexpected<br> drilling conditions;

| 11 |

| --- | | ● | pressure or irregularities in geological formations; | | --- | --- | | ● | equipment failures or accidents; | | ● | pipeline and processing interruptions or unavailability; | | ● | title problems; | | ● | adverse weather conditions; | | ● | lack of market demand for oil and natural gas; | | ● | delays imposed by, or resulting from, compliance with environmental laws and other regulatory requirements; | | ● | declines in oil and natural gas prices; and | | ● | shortages or delays in the availability of drilling rigs, equipment and qualified personnel. |

Our future drilling activities might not be successful, and drilling success rates overall or within a particular area could decline. We could incur losses by drilling unproductive wells. Shut-in wells, curtailed production and other production interruptions may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Shortagesof drilling rigs, equipment, oilfield services and qualified personnel could delay our exploration and development activitiesand increase the prices that we pay to obtain such drilling rigs, equipment, oilfield services and personnel.

Our industry is cyclical and, from time to time, there may be a shortage of drilling rigs, equipment, oilfield services and qualified personnel in countries in which we may operate in the future. Shortages of drilling and workover rigs, pipe and other equipment may occur as demand for drilling rigs and equipment increases, along with increases in the number of wells being drilled. These factors can also cause significant increases in costs for equipment, oilfield services and qualified personnel. Higher oil and natural gas prices generally stimulate demand and result in increased prices for drilling and workover rigs, crews and associated supplies, equipment and services. It is beyond our control and ability to predict whether these conditions will exist in the future and, if so, what their timing and duration will be. These types of shortages or price increases could significantly increase our costs, decrease our cash provided by operating activities, or restrict our ability to conduct the exploration and development activities that we currently have planned and budgeted or that we may plan in the future. In addition, the availability of drilling rigs can vary significantly from region to region at any particular time. An undersupply of drilling rigs in any of the regions in which we may operate may result in drilling delays and higher costs for drilling rigs.

Asubstantial or extended decline in oil and natural gas prices may adversely affect our ability to meet our future capital expenditureobligations and financial commitments.

Revenues, operating results and future rate of growth are substantially dependent upon the prevailing prices of, and demand for, oil and natural gas. Lower oil and natural gas prices may also reduce the amount of oil and natural gas that we will be able to produce economically. Historically, oil and natural gas prices and markets have been volatile, and they are likely to continue to be volatile in the future. The recent decline in oil prices has highlighted the volatility and if oil prices remain at this level for an extended period of time, such lower prices could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

| 12 |

| --- |

A decrease in oil or natural gas prices will not only reduce revenues and profits but will also reduce the quantities of reserves that are commercially recoverable and may result in charges to earnings for impairment of the value of these assets. If oil or natural gas prices decline significantly for extended periods of time in the future, we might not be able to generate sufficient cash flow from operations to meet our obligations and make planned capital expenditures. Oil and natural gas prices are subject to wide fluctuations in response to relatively minor changes in the supply of, and demand for, oil and natural gas, market uncertainty and a variety of additional factors that are beyond our control. Among the factors that could cause fluctuations are:

●	market<br> expectations regarding supply and demand for oil and natural gas;
●	levels<br> of production and other activities of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and other oil and natural gas producing<br> nations;
●	market<br> expectations about future prices for oil and natural gas;
●	the<br> level of global oil and natural gas exploration, production activity and inventories;
●	political<br> conditions, including embargoes, in or affecting oil and natural gas production activities; and
●	the<br> price and availability of alternative fuels.

Lower oil and natural gas prices may not only decrease our revenues on a per unit basis, but also may reduce the amount of oil and natural gas that we will be able to produce economically. A substantial or extended decline in oil or natural gas prices may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Weare subject to operating hazards.

The oil and natural gas exploration and production business involves a variety of operating risks, including the risk of fire, explosion, blowout, pipe failure, casing collapse, stuck tools, uncontrollable flows of oil or natural gas, abnormally pressured formations and environmental hazards such as oil spills, surface cratering, natural gas leaks, pipeline ruptures, discharges of toxic gases, underground migration, surface spills, mishandling of fracture stimulation fluids, including chemical additives, and natural disasters. The occurrence of any of these events could result in substantial losses to us due to injury and loss of life, loss of or damage to well bores and/or drilling or production equipment, costs of overcoming downhole problems, severe damage to and destruction of property, natural resources and equipment, pollution and other environmental damage, clean-up responsibilities, regulatory investigation and penalties and suspension of operations. Gathering systems and processing facilities are subject to many of the same hazards and any significant problems related to those facilities could adversely affect our ability to market our production.

Ouroil and natural gas operations are subject to extensive and complex laws and government regulation, and compliance with existingand future laws may increase our costs or impair our operations.

Our oil and natural gas operations in countries in which we operate or may operate in the future will be subject to numerous laws and regulations, including those related to the environment, employment, immigration, labor, oil and natural gas exploration and development, payments to local, foreign and provincial officials, taxes and the repatriation of foreign earnings. If we fail to adhere to any applicable laws or regulations, or if such laws or regulations restrict exploration or production, or negatively affect the sale, of oil and natural gas, our business, prospects, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows may be impaired. We may be subject to governmental sanctions, such as fines or penalties, as well as potential liability for personal injury, property or natural resource damage and might be required to make significant capital expenditures to comply with federal, state or international laws or regulations. In addition, existing laws or regulations, as currently interpreted or reinterpreted in the future, or future laws or regulations, could adversely affect our business or operations, or substantially increase our costs and associated liabilities.

In addition, exploration for, and exploitation, production and sale of, oil and natural gas in countries in which we operate or may operate in the future are subject to extensive national and local laws and regulations requiring various licenses, permits and approvals from various governmental agencies. If these licenses or permits are not issued or unfavorable restrictions or conditions are imposed on our exploration or drilling activities, we might not be able to conduct our operations as planned. Alternatively, failure to comply with these laws and regulations, including the requirements of any licenses or permits, might result in the suspension or termination of operations and subject us to penalties. Our costs to comply with such laws, regulations, licenses and permits are significant.

| 13 |

| --- |

Specifically, our oil and natural gas operations in countries in which we operate or may operate in the future will be subject to stringent laws and regulations relating to the release or disposal of materials into the environment or otherwise relating to environmental protection. Failure to comply with these laws and regulations may result in the imposition of administrative, civil and/or criminal penalties, incurring investigatory or remedial obligations and the imposition of injunctive relief.

Changes in environmental laws and regulations occur frequently, and any changes that result in more stringent or costly waste handling, storage, transport, disposal or cleanup requirements could require us to make significant expenditures to attain and maintain compliance and may otherwise have a material adverse effect on our industry in general and on our own results of operations, competitive position or financial condition. Although we intend to comply in all material respects with applicable environmental laws and regulations, there can be no assurance that we will be able to comply with existing or new regulations. In addition, the risk of accidental spills, leakages or other circumstances could expose us to extensive liability. We are unable to predict the effect of additional environmental laws and regulations that may be adopted in the future, including whether any such laws or regulations would materially adversely increase our cost of doing business or affect operations in any area.

Under certain environmental laws that impose strict, joint and several liability, we may be required to remediate our contaminated properties regardless of whether such contamination resulted from the conduct of others or from consequences of our own actions that were or were not in compliance with all applicable laws at the time those actions were taken. In addition, claims for damages to persons or property may result from environmental and other impacts of our operations. Moreover, new or modified environmental, health or safety laws, regulations or enforcement policies could be more stringent and impose unforeseen liabilities or significantly increase compliance costs. Therefore, the costs to comply with environmental, health or safety laws or regulations or the liabilities incurred in connection with them could significantly and adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.

In addition, many countries have agreed to regulate emissions of “greenhouse gases.” Methane, a primary component of natural gas, and carbon dioxide, a by-product of burning of oil and natural gas, are greenhouse gases. Regulation of greenhouse gases could adversely impact some of our operations and demand for some of our services or products in the future.

Competitionin the oil and natural gas industry for licenses is intense, and many of our competitors have greater financial, technologicaland other resources than we do, which may adversely affect our ability to compete.

We will be operating in the highly competitive areas of oil and natural gas exploration, development, production and acquisition with a substantial number of other companies, both foreign and domestic. We face intense competition from independent, technology-driven companies as well as from both major and other independent oil and natural gas companies in each of the following areas:

●	seeking<br> oil and natural gas exploration licenses and production licenses;
●	acquiring<br> desirable producing properties or new leases for future exploration;
●	marketing<br> oil and natural gas production;
●	integrating<br> new technologies; and
●	contracting<br> for drilling services and equipment and securing the expertise necessary to develop and operate properties.

Many of our competitors have substantially greater financial, managerial, technological and other resources than we do. These companies are able to pay more for exploratory prospects and productive oil and natural gas properties than we can. To the extent competitors are able to pay more for properties than we are paying, we will be at a competitive disadvantage. Further, many of our competitors enjoy technological advantages over us and may be able to implement new technologies more rapidly than we can. Our ability to explore for and produce oil and natural gas prospects and to acquire additional properties in the future will depend upon our ability to successfully conduct operations, implement advanced technologies, evaluate and select suitable properties and consummate transactions in this highly competitive environment.

| 14 |

| --- |

Wemight not be able to obtain necessary permits, approvals or agreements from one or more government agencies, surface owners, orother third parties, which could hamper our exploration, development or production activities.

There are numerous permits, approvals, and agreements with third parties that will be necessary in order to enable us to proceed with our exploration, development or production activities and otherwise accomplish our objectives. The government agencies in international countries have discretion in interpreting various laws, regulations, and policies governing operations under licenses such as the license we are obtaining in Bulgaria. Further, we may be required to enter into agreements with private surface owners to obtain access to, and agreements for, the location of surface facilities. In addition, because many of the laws governing oil and natural gas operations in international countries have been enacted relatively recently, there is only a relatively short history of the government agencies handling and interpreting those laws, including the various regulations and policies relating to those laws. This short history does not provide extensive precedents or the level of certainty that allows us to predict whether such agencies will act favorably toward us. The governments have broad discretion to interpret requirements for the issuance of drilling permits. Our inability to meet any such requirements could have a material adverse effect on our exploration, development or production activities.

RisksRelated to Our Common Stock

Thevalue of our common stock may be affected by matters not related to our own operating performance.

The value of our common stock may be affected by matters that are not related to our operating performance and are outside of our control. These matters include the following:

In the past, some companies that have experienced volatility in the trading price of their common stock have been the subject of securities class action litigation. We might become involved in securities class action litigation in the future. Such litigation often results in substantial costs and diversion of management’s attention and resources and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operation.

Investmentin our common stock is speculative due to the nature of our business.

An investment in our common stock is speculative due to the nature of our involvement in the acquisition and exploration of oil and natural gas properties.

Ourshareholders may experience dilution as a result of our issuance of additional common stock or the exercise of outstanding optionsand warrants.

We may enter into commitments in the future that would require the issuance of additional common stock. We may also grant additional share purchase warrants, restricted stock units or stock options. The exercise of share purchase warrants, restricted stock units or stock options and the subsequent resale of common stock in the public market could adversely affect the prevailing market price and our ability to raise equity capital in the future. Any stock issuances from our treasury will result in immediate dilution to existing shareholders.

Wehave never declared or paid cash dividends on our common stock.

We do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Payment of future cash dividends, if any, will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on our financial condition, results of operations, contractual restrictions, capital requirements, business prospects and other factors that our Board of Directors considers relevant. Accordingly, investors may only see a return on their investment if the value of our securities appreciates.

Ourstock price is volatile.

Our common stock is traded on the OTC Bulletin Board and the OTCQB. There can be no assurance that an active public market will continue for our common stock, or that the market price for our common stock will not decline below its current price. Such price may be influenced by many factors, including, but not limited to, investor perception of us and our industry and general economic and market conditions. The trading price of our common stock could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to a variety of matters and market conditions.

Ourcommon stock will be subject to the “Penny Stock” Rules of the SEC.

Our securities will be subject to the “penny stock rules” adopted pursuant to Section 15(g) of the Exchange Act. The penny stock rules apply generally to companies whose common stock trades at less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain limited exemptions. Such rules require, among other things, that brokers who trade “penny stock” to persons other than “established customers” complete certain documentation, make suitability inquiries of investors and provide investors with certain information concerning trading in the security, including a risk disclosure document and quote information under certain circumstances. Some brokers have decided not to trade “penny stock” because of the requirements of the “penny stock rules” and, as a result, the number of broker-dealers willing to act as market makers in such securities is limited. In the event that we remain subject to the “penny stock rules” for any significant period, there may develop an adverse impact on the market, if any, for our securities. Because our securities are subject to the “penny stock rules,” investors will find it more difficult to dispose of our securities.

Adecline in the price of our common stock could affect our ability to raise further working capital and create additional dilutionto existing shareholders upon any financings.

A decline in the price of our common stock could result in a reduction in the liquidity of our common stock and a reduction in our ability to raise additional capital for our operations. Because our operations to date have been principally financed through the sale of equity securities, a decline in the price of our common stock could have an adverse effect upon our liquidity; and if we sell such equity securities at a lower price, such sales could cause excessive dilution to existing shareholders.

Wemay issue debt to acquire assets or for working capital.

From time to time our Company may enter into transactions to acquire assets or the stock of other companies or we may require funding for general and administrative purposes. These transactions may be financed partially or wholly with debt, which may increase our debt levels above industry standards. Our governing documents do not limit the amount of indebtedness that our Company may incur. The level of our indebtedness from time to time could impair our ability to obtain additional financing in the future on a timely basis to take advantage of business opportunities that may arise.

Wemay issue additional equity securities without the consent of shareholders. The issuance of any additional equity securities wouldfurther dilute our shareholders.

Our Board of Directors has the authority, without further action by the shareholders, to issue up to 250,000,000 shares of common stock authorized under our charter documents, of which 87,628,823 shares were issued and outstanding as of May 14, 2020. We may issue additional shares of common stock or other equity securities, including securities convertible into shares of common stock, in connection with capital raising activities. The issuance of additional common stock would also result in dilution to existing shareholders.

ITEM1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information required under this item.

ITEM2. PROPERTIES

TurkeyProperties

On January 18, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of three oil and gas exploration and production companies operating in Turkey (the “Tiway Companies”). As a result of the acquisition of the Tiway Companies, the Company now owns interests in three producing oil and gas fields in Turkey, one of which is offshore and the other two are onshore. We have changed the name of the Tiway Companies to include Park Place in the name so hereinafter we will refer to them as the “PPE Turkey”.

SASB

The primary asset of the PPE Turkey is the offshore production license called the South Akcakoca Sub-Basin (“SASB”). PPE Turkey owns a 49% working interest in SASB which has four producing fields, each with a production platform plus subsea pipelines that connect the fields to an onshore gas plant. The four SASB fields are located off the north coast of Turkey towards the western end of the Black Sea in water depths ranging from 60 to100 meters. Gas is produced from Eocene age sandstone reservoirs at subsea depths ranging from 1100 to1800 meters.

| 17 |

| --- |

The three nearer shore gas fields of Ayazli (discovered in 2004), Dogu Ayazli (discovered 2005) and Akkaya (discovered in 2006) were included in an initial phase of development with first gas production in 2007. The deeper water Akcakoca field (discovered in 2006) was developed later with first gas production in 2011. All the fields are developed using unmanned well head platforms/tripods tied back via an 18 km 12-inch pipeline to shared processing and compression facilities onshore at Cayagzi gas plant. The gas plant at Cayagzi is capable of processing up to 75 million cubic feet of gas per day. Sales gas is exported via an 18.6 km long 16-inch onshore pipeline, which ties into the main national gas transmission network operated by BOTAS. Historically, gas has been produced at rates of as high as 30 MMcf/d from SASB; total gross production to date from the four fields is in excess of 40 Bcf. The production license for SASB is covered by a modern 223 square kilometre 3D survey. There are five additional gas discoveries in SASB that have not yet been developed. Also, there are several additional prospects defined by 3D seismic data.

As of December 31, 2019, there are 4 production wells over 4 platforms. 5 additional wells were drilled and tested and temporarily abandoned pending connection to production pipeline (“Undeveloped Discoveries”), 3 wells are dry, and 1 well is abandoned. The total gross acreage of the SASB is12,385 hectares. There was no new drilling during the fiscal year, however, well maintenance has occurred.

Cendere

With the acquisition of the PPE Turkey, the Company also acquired a 19.6% interest in the Cendere field except three wells where the Company has a 9.8% interest, a producing oil field located in Central Turkey. At year-end 2019, the Cendere field was producing 115 barrels of oil per day, net to the PPE Turkey Companies; and averaged 127 barrels per day during 2019 net to the PPE Turkey.

A description of the Cendere Field geological and reservoir characteristics is as follows. The reservoirs are located in the South East Anatolian Basin and within the Middle Cretaceous period. The carbonated Derdere Formation is the main reservoir in Cendere Field and has dolomitization and fracturing, which enhance its production characteristics. There are also four additional oil reservoirs contained within Cendere Field.

The Cendere Field is covered by 54 km2 of 3D seismic that was acquired in 2004.

The field was developed using a collection of dispersed oil wells from which production is collected and exported to the Cendere gathering station. The produced oil is exported to the TPAO Karakus processing facility which then is transported onwards to the BOTAS-operated oil pipeline.

There are 20 well pads which currently house 16 producing wells spread over an area of approximately 15 square kilometers. A field gathering station, located to the southwest of the Cendere Field collects the oil and produced water from a collection of flowlines and manifolds.

The Cendere Field is a long-term low decline oil reserve.

Bakuk

A 50% operated interest in the shut-in Bakuk gas field located near the Syrian border.

BulgarianProperty

The Company’s commitment is to perform geological and geophysical exploration activities in the first 3 years of the initial term (the “Exploration and Geophysical Work Stage”), followed by drilling activities in years 4 and 5 of the initial term (the “Data Evaluation and Drilling Stage”). The Company is required to drill 10,000 meters (approximately 32,800 feet) of new wellbore (which may be vertical, horizontal or diagonal) and conduct other exploration activities during the initial term.

Pursuant to the License Agreement, the Company is obligated to incur minimum costs during the initial term as follows:

(i)	$925,000<br> for the Exploration and Geophysical Work Stage; and
(ii)	$3,675,000<br> for the Data Evaluation and Drilling Stage.

In addition, during the term of the License Agreement, the Company is obligated to pay an annual land rental fee of 15,897 BGN (US $8,266 based on the exchange rate of 0.52 Lev to U.S. Dollar as of April 30, 2020). The Company is permitted to commence limited production during the initial term of the License Agreement. Upon confirmation of a commercial discovery, the Company is entitled to convert the productive area of the license to an exploitation concession that may last for up to 35 years provided that the minimum work commitments are satisfied.

| 18 |

| --- |

Before the license for the Bulgarian CBM project is “effective”, the Company’s overall work program and first year annual work program must be approved by both the Bulgarian environmental ministry and the energy ministry. On August 26, 2014, the Bulgarian environmental agency approved the Company’s overall work program and first year annual work program. A number of parties appealed the decision of the environmental agency and an appeal proceeding was commenced before a three judge administrative panel. The three judge panel issued a decision on February 3, 2017 in which it ruled that the environmental agency had failed to follow its own regulations in approving the Company’s work programs. Both the environmental agency and the Company appealed the decision to a five-judge panel whose decision will be final. During 2017, the five judge panel ruled in favor of the Company. The Company is in the process of obtaining an environmental impact study which is required for the work program to commence. This report is expected to be obtained later this year.

ReservesReported to Other Agencies

We have not filed estimates of total in-place resources or proved oil and gas reserves with any other federal authority or agency in the United States, Canada, Turkey or Bulgaria at this time. Presently, we are not required to prepare an estimate with respect to the Bulgarian property because our license has not yet become effective. We will file such reports as and when required under applicable regulations after receiving the Bulgarian exploration permit.

PresentActivities

In Bulgaria, the Company has suspended most of its work to evaluate the opportunity for the exploration of natural gas and planning future operations on the permit area. Our evaluation and analysis based on the data available to us is mostly complete. The Company recently completed an environmental baseline survey over the entire permit area. In addition, the Company has purchased one drill site to enable it to conduct its planned work programs once those work programs receive all required regulatory approvals. The Company has evaluated and identified at least one existing well for re-entry and several potential drilling locations for new wells.

At Hakkari Turkey the Company is evaluating its options.

In Turkey, the Company plans to do workovers in the Cendere Field to keep production at its current net rate of 119 bopd. For SASB the company intends to seek funding for development of the natural reserves on the license area.

EquityCompensation Plans

Long-TermIncentive Equity Plans

On October 29, 2013, the Company’s shareholders adopted the Company’s 2013 Long-Term Incentive Equity Plan (the “2013 Plan”). A summary of the principal features of the 2013 Plan, as well as a copy of the 2013 Plan document itself, is available in the Company’s Schedule 14A filed on September 27, 2013, to which reference should be made for a more complete description of the 2013 Plan. The 2013 Plan permits grants of stock options (including incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options), stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, and other stock-based awards. Under the 2013 Plan, any employee (including an employee who is also a director or an officer), officer, contractor or outside director of the Company whose judgment, initiative, and efforts contributed or may be expected to contribute to the successful performance of the Company is eligible to participate in the 2013 Plan, except that only employees are eligible to receive incentive stock options. Subject to certain adjustments, the maximum number of shares of common stock that may be delivered under the 2013 Plan is ten percent (10%) of the Company’s authorized and outstanding shares of common stock as determined on the applicable date of grant of an award under the 2013 Plan.

The various types of long-term incentive awards that may be granted under the 2013 Plan will enable the Company to respond to changes in compensation practices, tax laws, accounting regulations and the size and diversity of its businesses.

During the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company issued 3,800,000 and 2,450,000, respectively, of stock options and 585,000 and 520,000, respectively, of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) under the 2013 Plan.

ExecutiveSummary

Trillion Energy International Inc. is focused on it’s oil and gas producing assets in Turkey and a coal bed methane exploration license in Bulgaria.

Turkey

PPE Turkey own 19.6% interest in the onshore Cendere oil field except three wells where PPE Turkey own 9.8% interest. PPE owns 49% working interest in the offshore SASB.

At December 31, 2019, the gross oil production rate for the producing wells in Cendere was 702 bbls/day; the average daily 2019 gross production rate for the field was 790 bbls/day. At the end of April 2020, oil is currently sold at a price of approximately US$32 per barrel for a netback per barrel of approximately US$1. At year-end 2019, the Cendere field was producing 115 barrels of oil per day net to the PPE Turkey; and averaged 127 barrels per day during 2019 net to the PPE Turkey

SASB has four producing fields, each with a production platform plus subsea pipelines that connect the fields to an onshore gas plant. The SASB fields are located off the north coast of Turkey towards the western end of the Black Sea. total gross production to date from the four fields is in excess of 40 Bcf.

| 23 |

| --- |

At December 31, 2019, the gross gas production rate for the 4 producing wells in SASB was 0.807 MMcfd; the average daily 2019 gross production rate for the field was 1.04 MMcfd. At the end of April 2020, gas is currently sold at a price of approximately US$6.2 per Mcf for a netback per Mcf of approximately US$3.23. The low net back is a result of relatively lower production levels being incurred due to natural decline, down approximately 96% since peak production rates occurred during 2011, given no new wells have been drilled since 2011. The Company anticipates that as new wells come online, the netback will increase substantially.

With the acquisition of the PPE Turkey , the Company also acquired another oil and gas asset, a 50% operated interest in the Bakuk gas field located near the Syrian border. The Bakuk field is shut-in.

StrategicFocus

Our focus currently is obtaining funding to produce our reserves in our oil and gas fields in Turkey, which we expect will generate significant cash-flow and profits for the Company. Further development is contingent upon receiving further funding, and our plan is to further develop the fields when funding is received. The Bulgaria license area holds great upside attraction as a potential coal bed methane exploration project. The license area was extensively drilled for coal exploration from 1964 to 1990. It was determined that coal mining was not technically feasible. However, the coal exploration drilling provided us with an extensive database.

Resultsof Operations

The following summary of our results of operations should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, which are included herein.

Revenue

For the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company had oil and gas revenue of $3,915,799, compared to $4,253,326 for the year ended December 31, 2018. Revenue decreased primarily due to the devaluation of the Turkish Lira compared to the U.S. dollar of approximately 17% over the comparable period and was partially offset by an increase in revenue denominated in Turkish Liras. Oil and gas revenue denominated in Turkish Liras was ₺22,244,942 for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to ₺19,981,333 for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Expenses

For the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company incurred production expenses related to its PPE Turkey operations of $2,593,180 (2018 - $2,802,080), depletion charges of $302,094 (2018 - $700,219), depreciation expense of $76,413(2018 - $29,408) and asset retirement obligation accretion expense of $417,965 (2018 - $371,526) for the year ended December 31, 2019. Accretion of asset retirement costs increased by $46,439 for the year ended December 31, 2019 primarily due to the increase in the asset retirement obligation cost base from the Foinovan interest acquired in the prior year. Depreciation increased by $47,005 for the year ended December 31, 2019 primarily due to the accelerated depreciation of leasehold improvements after terminating an office lease arrangement in the year. Production expenses and depletion charges decreased by $208,900 and $398,125, respectively, primarily due to devaluation of the Turkish Lira compared to the U.S. dollar of approximately 17% over the comparable period and was partially offset by an increase in production costs due to higher production in the current year.

For the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company had stock-based compensation of $437,725, compared to $337,227 for the year ended December 31, 2018. The expense for the year ended December 31, 2019 included $379,225 for the grant of 3,800,000 stock options under the 2013 Option Plan and $58,500 for the grant and vesting of 585,000 RSU’s.

For the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company had general and administrative expenses of $1,781,859, compared to $2,118,213 for the year ended December 31, 2018. $751,481 in expenses were from the North American head office, which resulted in a year over year decrease of $255,743. In general & administrative expenses in the North American operations, $107,300 was for consulting and management fees, $127,791 for legal and professional fees and $167,789 for audit and financial services. Turkey general and administrative expenses accounted for $ 1,060,515 of the total general and administrative for 2019.

OtherIncome (Expense)

For the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company had net other income of $9,944, compared to other expense of $270,166 for the year ended December 31, 2018. For the year ended December 31, 2019, other income (expense) consisted primarily of interest expense and foreign exchange loss, partially offset by other income and interest income. For the year ended December 31, 2018, other income (expense) consisted primarily of warrant modification expense, loss on debt settlement and interest expense, partially offset by other income and foreign exchange gain.

NetLoss

Our net loss for the year ended December 31, 2019 was $1,683,493, compared to $2,375,513 for the year ended December 31, 2018 for the reasons explained above.

Liquidityand Capital Resources

The following table summarizes our liquidity position as of December 31, 2019 and 2018.

The current year loss of $1,683,493 was offset by $1,323,960 in net non-cash items and $535,850 in changes in working capital items for the year ended December 31, 2019. This compares to a prior year loss of $2,375,513, offset by $2,051,979 in net non-cash items and $56,313 in changes in working capital items

| 26 |

| --- |

CashUsed in Investing Activities

Net cash used for investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2019 was $48,064, compared to $589,834 used for the year ended December 31, 2018. Oil and gas properties expenditures decreased to $37,449 from $504,110 in 2018 as the prior year expenditures included the acquisition costs for the SASB fields.

CashProvided by Financing Activities

We have funded our business to date from sales of our common stock through private placements and loans from shareholders.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2019 was $113,843, compared to $1,483,018 for the year ended December 31, 2018. Cash provided by financing activities in the current year was from convertible debentures and loans payable, partially offset by repayment of loans payable. This compares to the prior year where cash provided by financing activities was from issuance of common stock, partially offset by repayment of loans payable.

FutureOperating Requirements

Based on our current plan of operations and due to a decline in oil prices, we estimate that we will require approximately $500,000 to pursue our plan of operations over the next 12 months. We plan to spend approximately $50,000 on an environmental report and we also plan to improve our working capital surplus by paying off accounts payable. The operations in Turkey are self-sustaining and will generate net cash flow sufficient to fund in-country general and administrative expenses as well as a portion of our head office overhead. We will require approximately $250,000 for general and administrative expenses.

To reduce our current outstanding trade payables and indebtedness will require approximately $1.2 million; however, we may be able to negotiate terms that will require a lesser amount.

Based on the recent increase in reserves on SASB, our current plan of operations in the period 12 to 18 months is the drilling of up to four (4) new wells at SASB and to reenter three existing wells to perform workovers to increase gas production. Depending on the timing of the drilling operations at our current interest (currently 49%), we project we will incur up to an additional $16 to $25 million in capital expenditures to enable us to conduct such operations.

As of December 31, 2019, the Company had unrestricted cash of $863,017. The Company is attempting to raise additional capital to fund future exploration and operating requirements.

Off-BalanceSheet Arrangements

On October 1, 2018 the Company entered into an agreement to grant to a consultant of the Company a 2% (two percent) gross overriding royalty on petroleum substances produced from certain of its currently undeveloped exploration properties, namely: Block 1-11 Vranino situated in Dobrich District, Bulgaria and seven contiguous exploration licences in the province of Hakkari Yuksekova Semdiali Derecik, Turkey. The Grant of the royalty agreement was for services involving technical and corporate advisory services.

On October 1, 2018 the Company entered into an agreement to grant to the CEO of the Company a 0.5% (one half of one percent) gross overriding royalty on petroleum substances produced from certain of its currently undeveloped exploration properties, namely: Block 1-11 Vranino situated in Dobrich District, Bulgaria and seven contiguous exploration licences in the province of Hakkari Yuksekova Semdiali Derecik, Turkey. The Grant of the royalty agreement was for services involving technical and corporate advisory services.

ContractualObligation and Commercial Commitments

See the Executive Summary of this MD&A relating to our commitment under the Bulgarian License.

CriticalAccounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.

We regularly evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our consolidated financial statements. In general, management’s estimates are based on historical experience, on information from third party professionals, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management.

We believe that our critical accounting policies and estimates include the following:

Oiland gas properties

The Company follows the full cost method of accounting for oil and natural gas operations, whereby all costs of exploring for and developing oil and natural gas reserves are capitalized and accumulated in cost centers on a country-by-country basis. Costs include land acquisition costs, geological and geophysical charges, carrying charges on non-productive properties and costs of drilling both productive and non-productive wells. General and administrative costs are not capitalized other than to the extent of the Company’s working interest in operated capital expenditure programs on which operator’s fees have been charged equivalent to standard industry operating agreements.

The costs in each cost center, including the costs of well equipment, are depleted and depreciated using the unit-of-production method based on the estimated proved reserves before royalties. Natural gas reserves and production are converted to equivalent barrels of crude oil based on relative energy content. The costs of acquiring and evaluating significant unproved properties are initially excluded from depletion calculations. These unevaluated properties are assessed periodically to ascertain whether impairment has occurred. When proved reserves are assigned or the property is considered to be impaired, the cost of the property or the amount of the impairment is added to costs subject to depletion.

The capitalized costs less accumulated depletion and depreciation in each cost center are limited to an amount equal to the estimated future net revenue from proved reserves (based on prices and costs at the balance sheet date) plus the cost (net of impairments) of unproved properties. The total capitalized costs less accumulated depletion and depreciation, site restoration provision and future income taxes of all cost centers are further limited to an amount equal to the future net revenue from proved reserves plus the cost (net of impairments) of unproved properties of all cost centers less estimated future site restoration costs, general and administrative expenses, financing costs and income taxes.

Proceeds from the sale of oil and natural gas properties are applied against capitalized costs, with no gain or loss recognized, unless such a sale would significantly alter the rate of depletion and depreciation.

Stock-basedcompensation

The Company accounts for share-based compensation under the provisions of ASC 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation”. ASC 718 requires that all stock-based compensation be recognized as an expense in the financial statements and that such cost be measured at the fair value of the award. We use the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of the options on the date of each grant. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model utilizes highly subjective and complex assumptions to determine the fair value of stock-based compensation, including the option’s expected term and price volatility of the underlying stock.

Trillion Energy International Inc.

Opinionon the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Trillion Energy International, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company” and formerly known as Park Place Energy, Inc.) as of December 31, 2019, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2019 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

TheCompany’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the entity will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the entity has suffered recurring losses from operations, has a working capital deficit, and expects continuing future losses and has stated that substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basisfor Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

TRILLIONENERGY INTERNATIONAL INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

For the year ended December 31, 2019 and 2018

(Expressed in U.S. dollars)

1.	Organization

Trillion Energy International Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, (collectively referred to as the “Company”) is a U.S. based oil and gas exploration and production company. Effective April 10, 2020, our corporate headquarters moved from Suite 700, 838 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, B.C., Canada to Turan Gunes Bulvari, Park Oran Ofis Plaza, 180-y, Daire:54, Kat:14, 06450, Oran, Cankaya, Anakara, Turkey. The Company also has a registered office in Canada and Bulgaria. The Company was incorporated in Delaware in 2015.

2.	Summary<br> of Significant Accounting Policies
(a)	Basis<br>of Presentation and Going Concern
---	---

Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and are expressed in U.S. dollars. These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries Park Place Energy Corp., Park Place Energy Inc., Park Place Energy Bermuda, BG Exploration EOOD, and Park Place Energy Turkey. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Certain comparative information has been reclassified to conform with the financial statement presentation adopted in the current year.

GoingConcern

The Company has suffered recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company will need to raise funds through either the sale of its securities, issuance of corporate bonds, joint venture agreements and/or bank financing to accomplish its goals. If additional financing is not available when needed, the Company may need to cease operations. The Company may not be successful in raising the capital needed to drill and/or rework existing oil wells. Any additional wells that the Company may drill may be non-productive. Management believes that actions presently being taken to secure additional funding for the reworking of its existing infrastructure will provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern. Since the Company has an oil producing asset, its goal is to increase the production rate by optimizing its current infrastructure. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern; no adjustments to the financial statements have been made to account for this uncertainty.

| 37 |

| --- | | (b) | Use of Estimates | | --- | --- |

The preparation of consolidated financial statements 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. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the estimated useful lives and recoverability of long-lived assets, impairment of oil and gas properties, fair value of stock-based compensation, leases, convertible debt and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

(c)	Cash<br> and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.

(d)	Revenue<br> Recognition

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”). The Company adopted this standard using the modified retroactive basis on January 1, 2018. No financial statement impact occurred upon adoption.

Revenuefrom Contracts with Customers

The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control over a product to a customer. Revenue is measured based on the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products.

PerformanceObligations and Significant Judgments

The Company sells oil and natural gas products in Turkey. The Company enters into contracts that generally include one type of distinct product in variable quantities and priced based on a specific index related to the type of product.

The oil and natural gas are typically sold in an unprocessed state to processors and other third parties for processing and sale to customers. The Company recognizes revenue at a point in time when control of the oil is transferred. For oil sales, control is typically transferred to the customer upon receipt at the wellhead or a contractually agreed upon delivery point. Under the Company’s natural gas contracts with processors, control transfers upon delivery at the wellhead or the inlet of the processing entity’s system. For the Company’s other natural gas contracts, control transfers upon delivery to the inlet or to a contractually agreed upon delivery point. In the cases where the Company sells to a processor, the Company has determined that the Company is the principal in the arrangement and the processors are the Company’s customers. The Company recognizes the revenue in these contracts based on the net proceeds received from the processor.

Transfer of control drives the presentation of transportation and gathering costs within the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Transportation and gathering costs incurred prior to control transfer are recorded within the transportation and gathering expense line item on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations, while transportation and gathering costs incurred subsequent to control transfer are recorded as a reduction to the related revenue.

A portion of the Company’s product sales are short-term in nature. For those contracts, the Company uses the practical expedient in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606-10-50-14 exempting us from disclosure of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations if the performance obligation is part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less.

For the Company’s product sales that have a contract term greater than one year, the Company uses the practical expedient in ASC 606-10-50-14(a) which states the Company is not required to disclose the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations if the variable consideration is allocated entirely to an unsatisfied performance obligation. Under these sales contracts, each unit of product represents a separate performance obligation; therefore, future volumes are unsatisfied, and disclosure of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations is not required. The Company has no unsatisfied performance obligations at the end of each reporting period.

The Company does not believe that significant judgments are required with respect to the determination of the transaction price, including any variable consideration identified. There is a low level of uncertainty due to the precision of measurement and use of index-based pricing with predictable differentials. Additionally, any variable consideration identified is not constrained.

| 38 |

| --- | | (e) | Accounts Receivable | | --- | --- |

Accounts receivable consist of oil and gas receivables. The Company has classified these as short-term assets in the balance sheet because the Company expects repayment or recovery within the next 12 months. The Company evaluates these accounts receivable for collectability and, when necessary, records allowances for expected unrecoverable amounts. The Company deems all accounts receivable to be collectable and has not recorded any allowance for doubtful accounts.

(f)	Oil<br> and Gas Properties

The Company follows the full cost method of accounting for oil and natural gas operations, whereby all costs of exploring for and developing oil and natural gas reserves are capitalized and accumulated in cost centers on a country-by-country basis. Costs include: license and land acquisition costs, geological, engineering, geophysical, seismic and other data, carrying charges on non-productive properties and costs of drilling and completing both productive and non-productive wells. General and administrative costs which are associated with acquisition, exploration and development activities are capitalized. General and administrative costs are capitalized other than to the extent of the Company’s working interest in operated capital expenditure programs on which operator’s fees have been charged equivalent to standard industry operating agreements.

The costs in each cost center, including the costs of well equipment, are depleted and depreciated using the unit-of-production method based on the estimated proved reserves before royalties. The costs of acquiring and evaluating significant unproved properties are initially excluded from depletion calculations. These unevaluated properties are assessed periodically to ascertain whether impairment has occurred. When proved reserves are assigned or the property is considered to be impaired, the cost of the property or the amount of the impairment is added to costs subject to depletion.

The capitalized costs (less accumulated depletion and depreciation in each cost center) are limited to an amount equal to the estimated future net revenue from proved reserves (based on prices and costs at the balance sheet date) plus the cost (net of impairments) of unproved properties. The total capitalized costs, less accumulated depletion and depreciation, site restoration provision and future income taxes of all cost centers, is further limited to an amount equal to the future net revenue from proved reserves plus the cost (net of impairments) of unproved properties of all cost centers less estimated future site restoration costs, general and administrative expenses, financing costs and income taxes.

Proceeds from the sale of oil and natural gas properties are applied against capitalized costs, with no gain or loss recognized, unless such a sale would significantly decrease the Company’s total proven reserves.

| 39 |

| --- | | (g) | Property and Equipment | | --- | --- |

Property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the lease term. The estimated useful lives are: other assets are depreciated over 20 years; and leasehold improvements are depreciated over the term of the lease.

(h)	Long-Lived<br> Assets

The Company tests long-lived assets or asset groups for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. Circumstances that could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the assets; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the assets; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the assets; and current expectation that the assets will more likely than not be sold or disposed significantly before the end of their estimated useful life. Recoverability is assessed based on the carrying amount of the assets and their fair value, which is generally determined based on the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and the eventual disposal of the assets, as well as specific appraisal in certain instances. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of the assets is not recoverable and exceeds fair value.

(i)	Asset<br> Retirement Obligations

The Company records the fair value of an asset retirement obligation as a liability in the period in which it incurs a legal obligation associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets that results from the acquisition, construction, development, and/or normal use of the long-lived assets. The Company also records a corresponding asset that is amortized over the life of the asset. Subsequent to the initial measurement of the asset retirement obligation, the obligation is adjusted at the end of each period to reflect the passage of time (accretion expense) and changes in the estimated future cash flows underlying the obligation (asset retirement cost).

(j)	Financial<br> Instruments and Fair Value Measurement

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e. the “exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the observability of inputs as follows:

●	Level<br> 1 – Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the<br> ability to access. Valuation adjustments and block discounts are not applied to Level 1 instruments. Since valuations<br> are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these products does<br> not entail a significant degree of judgment.
●	Level<br> 2 – Valuations based on one or more quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs<br> are observable, either directly or indirectly.
---	---
●	Level<br> 3 – Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.
---	---

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, account receivables, note receivable, restricted cash and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values because of their immediate or short-term to maturity.

The carrying value of loans payable, operating lease liability and convertible debt, less any unamortized discounts, approximate their fair value due to minimal changes in interest rates and the Company’s credit risk since initial recognition.

The Company’s derivative liability is measured at its fair value at the end of each reporting period and is categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

(k)	Income<br> Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. The asset and liability method provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and for operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.

As of December 31, 2019, and 2018, the Company did not have any amounts recorded pertaining to uncertain tax positions. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in general and administrative expense. The Company did not incur any penalties or interest during the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018. On December 22, 2017 the U.S. enacted the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“the Tax Act”) which significantly changed U.S. tax law. The Tax Act lowered the Company’s statutory federal income tax rate from a maximum of 39% to a rate of 21% effective January 1, 2018. The Company has deferred tax losses and assets and they were adjusted as a result of the change in tax law reducing the federal income tax rate. The Company’s tax years 2014 and forward remain open.

(l)	Foreign<br> Currency Translation

Operations outside the United States prepare financial statements in currencies other than the United States dollar. The income statement amounts are translated at average exchange rates for the year, while the assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates. Translation adjustments are accumulated as a separate component of stockholders’ equity and other comprehensive income (loss). The functional currency of the Company’s Bulgarian operations is the Bulgarian Lev. The functional currency of the Company’s Turkish operations is the Turkish Lira.

| 40 |

| --- | | (m) | Stock-Based Compensation | | --- | --- |

The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718 (“Compensation – Stock Compensation”) using the fair value method. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the fair value of stock-based awards. This model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of subjective variables. These subjective variables include, but are not limited to, the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and actual and projected stock option exercise behaviors. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense in the statement of operations over the requisite service period.

The Company records restricted stock units at the grant date fair value and recognizes the related expense evenly over the vesting period. In circumstances where the restricted stock units vest on the date of grant, the expense would be immediately recognized on grant.

(n)	Loss<br> per Share

The Company computes loss per share of Company stock in accordance with ASC 260 “Earnings per Share” which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing the loss available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

(o)	New<br> Accounting Pronouncements

Adoptedin the Current Year

Leases

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, established Topic 842, Leases, by issuing Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, which requires lessors to classify leases as a sales-type, direct financing, or operating lease and requires lessees to recognize leases on-balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. Topic 842 was subsequently amended by ASU 2018-01, Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842; ASU 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases; and ASU 2018-11, Targeted Improvements.

The Company adopted the new standard on January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective approach. The Company elected the following practical expedients:

●	Transition<br> method practical expedient – permits the Company to use the effective date as the date of initial application. Upon<br> adoption, the Company did not have a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. Financial information<br> and disclosures for periods before January 1, 2019 were not updated.
●	Package<br> of practical expedients – permits the Company not to reassess under the new standard its prior conclusions about lease<br> identification, lease classification, and initial direct costs. This allowed the Company to continue classifying its leases<br> at transition in substantially the same manner.
---	---
●	Single<br> component practical expedient – permits the Company to not separate lease and non-lease components of leases. Upon transition,<br> rental income, expense reimbursement, and other were aggregated into a single line within rental and other revenues on the<br> condensed consolidated statement of operations.
---	---
●	Short-term<br> lease practical expedient – permits the Company not to recognize leases with a term equal to or less than 12 months.
---	---

Lessee Accounting

The new standard requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases are classified as finance or operating at inception, with classification affecting the pattern and recording of expenses in the statement of operations. Upon transition the Company recognized lease assets and lease liabilities principally for its office lease. When measuring lease liabilities for leases that were classified as operating leases, the Company discounted lease payments using its incremental borrowing rate at January 1, 2019. The weighted-average rate applied was 10%. Refer to Notes 6 and 9.

| 41 |

| --- | | 3. | Deposits | | --- | --- |

Included in prepaid expenses and deposits at December 31, 2019, is $nil (2018 - $237,791) relating to field insurance for the Turkey Operations.

| 42 |

| --- | | 4. | Restricted cash | | --- | --- |

The restricted cash relates to drilling bonds provided to GDPA (General Directorate of Petroleum Affairs) for the exploration licenses due to Turkish Petroleum Law. The amounts are for 2% of the annual work budget of the different Turkish licenses which is submitted to GDPA on an annual basis.

Bulgaria

The Company holds a 98,205-acre oil and gas exploration claim in the Dobrudja Basin located in northeast Bulgaria. The Company intends to conduct exploration for natural gas and test production activities over a five-year period in accordance with or exceeding its minimum work program obligation. The Company’s commitment is to perform geological and geophysical exploration activities in the first 3 years of the initial term (the “Exploration and Geophysical Work Stage”), followed by drilling activities in years 4 and 5 of the initial term (the “Data Evaluation and Drilling Stage”). The Company is required to drill 10,000 meters (approximately 32,800 feet) of new wellbore (which may be vertical, horizontal or diagonal) and conduct other exploration activities during the initial term. The Company intends to commence its work program efforts once it receives all regular regulatory approvals of its work programs.

Turkey

Cendereoil field

The primary asset of the PPE Turkey Companies is the Cendere onshore oil field, which is a profitable oil field located in South East Turkey having a total of 25 wells. The Cendere Field was first discovered in 1988. Oil production commenced during 1990. The operator of the Cendere Field is TPAO. The Company’s interest is 19.6% for all wells except for wells C-13, C-15 and C-16, for which its interest is 9.8%. The produced oil has a gravity of 27.5o API.

The Cendere Field is a long-term low decline oil reserve. During April 2020, the Company’s average net oil was 115 bopd at 96% water cut. At December 31, 2019, the Cendere field was producing 115 barrels of oil equivalent per day, net to the PPE Turkey Companies; and averaged 127 barrels of oil equivalent per day during 2019 net to the PPE Turkey Companies. The field started to produce water during the first year of production. As of March 25, 2020, 20.6MMbbls of oil have been produced from the Cendere Field.

In April 2015, the Company loaned $38,570 to a Bulgarian company pursuant to a revolving credit facility, enabling such Bulgarian company to buy and manage land in Bulgaria to be leased by the Company for future well sites. The credit facility has a maximum loan obligation of BGN 1,000,000 ($573,400 USD at December 31, 2019) bears interest at 6.32%, has a five-year term and is secured by the land the Bulgarian company buys. Payment on the facility is due the earlier of the end of the five-year term (April 6, 2020) or demand by the Company. As of December 31, 2019, the outstanding balance on the loan receivable was $50,671 (2018 - $49,192). The change in balance was due to changes in foreign currency translations.

On August 2, 2019, Garanti Bank extended a long-term loan to Park Place Turkey in the amount of $46,283. The loan matures on August 2, 2022 and bears interest at 20.5% per annum. Principal and accrued interest are paid at the end of the loan term.

During the year ended December 31, 2019, $380,068 was reclassified to long term loans payable as the maturity date of various loans was extended to April 1, 2021.

| 46 |

| --- | | 9. | Leases | | --- | --- |

The Company leases certain assets under lease agreements. The lease liability consists of a single lease for office space which was classified as an operating lease. Upon adoption of Topic 842, on January 1, 2019 the Company recognized an addition to right-of-use assets of $50,065 and lease liabilities of $50,065. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company recognized $20,279 in operating lease expense under Topic 842, which is included in general and administrative expenses. As of December 31, 2019, the Company’s leases had a weighted average remaining lease term of 0.25 years. Operating right-of-use assets have been included within property and equipment and lease liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as follows:

Right-of-use asset	December 31,<br><br> <br>2019
Cost	$	18,345
Accumulated amortization		(13,586	)

Operating lease liabilities are measured at the commencement date based on the present value of future lease payments. As the Company’s lease did not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The Company used a weighted average discount rate of 10% in determining its lease liabilities. The discount rate was derived from the Company’s assessment of current borrowings.

Operating lease right-of-use assets include any prepaid lease payments and exclude any lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease if it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option.

Future minimum lease payments to be paid by the Company as a lessee as of December 31, 2019 are as follows:

10.	Asset<br> Retirement Obligations
---	---

Asset retirement obligations (“AROs”) associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets are recognized as liabilities with an increase to the carrying amounts of the related long-lived assets in the period incurred. The fair value of AROs is recognized as of the acquisition date for business combinations. The cost of the tangible asset, including the asset retirement cost, is depleted over the life of the asset. AROs are recorded at estimated fair value, measured by reference to the expected future cash outflows required to satisfy the retirement obligations discounted at the Company’s credit-adjusted risk-free interest rate. Accretion expense is recognized over time as the discounted liabilities are accreted to their expected settlement value. If estimated future costs of AROs change, an adjustment is recorded to both the ARO and the long-lived asset. Revisions to estimated AROs can result from changes in retirement cost estimates, revisions to estimated inflation rates and changes in the estimated timing of abandonment. The Company’s ARO is measured using primarily Level 3 inputs. The significant unobservable inputs to this fair value measurement include estimates of plugging costs, remediation costs, inflation rate and well life. The inputs are calculated based on historical data as well as current estimated costs.

The following is a continuity of the Company’s asset retirement obligations:

11.	Convertible<br> Debentures
---	---

On September 30, 2019, the Company closed an unbrokered private placement of convertible debt, issuing $123,095 ($163,000 CAD) in debentures to two investors. The convertible debentures bear interest at 10% per annum, payable annually in advance. They are convertible any time during the term of the debenture into units (each unit consists of one share and one warrant; each warrant can acquire one share at an exercise price of $0.20 USD or $0.25 CAD per share, based on the currency initially subscribed) at a conversion price of $0.12 USD or $0.15 CAD per unit, based on the currency initially subscribed. The convertible debt matures on September 30, 2021 and is secured by a general security agreement over the assets of the Company.

As the September 30, 2019 convertible debt included an embedded conversion feature denominated in Canadian dollars, the debt was determined to be a financial instrument comprising an embedded derivative representing the conversion feature with a residual host debt component. On initial recognition, the Company used the residual value method to allocate the principal amount of the debentures between the embedded derivative conversion feature and host debt components. The conversion feature was valued first with the residual allocated to the host debt component.

On initial recognition of the convertible debt granted on September 30, 2019, the Company recognized a derivative liability of $81,956 and an offsetting convertible debt discount of $81,956.

The fair value of the conversion features was determined based on the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model using the following weighted average assumptions:


Risk-free interest rate	1.61	%
Expected life (years)	1.75
Expected volatility	275	%
Dividend yield	0	%

---	---

During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company received $332,239 in other income from the government, which is included in other income on the statements of operations and comprehensive loss. This amount relates to the settlement of a legal and tax dispute with General Directorate of Petroleum Affairs (GDPA) relating to a taxation liability that the Company was assessed for training costs commencing 2008. The Company disputed the assessment but was previously unsuccessful in its application. In 2018, the Company was successful in negotiating a non-legal settlement, overturning the training cost obligation.

The training obligation was imposed by GDPA in relation to SASB Project pursuant to former Turkish Petroleum Law no. 6326. Because of the 2008 assessment, the Company was forced to follow the amounts and percentages set in 2008. The Law states that petroleum right holders in Turkey are obliged to train Turkish citizens against each foreign citizen recruited in petroleum activities. This obligation is determined by taking 25% of the total number of the days the foreigners worked for the petroleum activity.

20.	Subsequent<br> Events

The recent outbreak of the coronavirus, also known as “COVID-19”, has spread across the globe and is impacting worldwide economic activity. Conditions surrounding the coronavirus continue to rapidly evolve and government authorities have implemented emergency measures to mitigate the spread of the virus. The outbreak and the related mitigation measures may have an adverse impact on global economic conditions as well as on the Company’s business activities. The extent to which the coronavirus may impact the Company’s business activities will depend on future developments, such as the ultimate geographic spread of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, travel restrictions, business disruptions, and the effectiveness of actions taken in Canada and other countries to contain and treat the disease. These events are highly uncertain and as such, the Company cannot determine their financial impact at this time.

SupplementalInformation

(unaudited)

Supplementaloil and natural gas reserves information (unaudited)

As required by the FASB and the SEC, the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows (the “Standardized Measure”) presented below is computed by applying first-day-of-the-month average prices, year-end costs and legislated tax rates and a discount factor of 10% to proved reserves. We do not believe the Standardized Measure provides a reliable estimate of our expected future cash flows to be obtained from the development and production of its oil and natural gas properties or of the value of its proved oil and natural gas reserves. The Standardized Measure is prepared on the basis of certain prescribed assumptions including first-day-of-the-month average prices, which represent discrete points in time and therefore may cause significant variability in cash flows from year-to-year as prices change.

Users of this information should be aware that the process of estimating quantities of proved and proved developed oil and natural gas reserves is very complex, requiring significant subjective decisions in the evaluation of all available geological, engineering and economic data for each reservoir. The data for a given reservoir also may change substantially over time as a result of numerous factors, including additional development activity, evolving production history and continual reassessment of the viability of production under varying economic conditions. Consequently, revisions to existing reserves estimates may occur from time to time. Although every reasonable effort is made to ensure reserves estimates reported represent the most accurate assessments possible, the subjective decisions and variances in available data for various reservoirs make these estimates generally less precise than other estimates included in the financial statement disclosures. Proved reserves are those quantities of oil and natural gas that by analysis of geoscience and engineering data can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically producible—from a given date forward, from known reservoirs, and under existing economic conditions, operating methods and government regulations—prior to the time at which contracts providing the right to operate expire, unless evidence indicates that renewal is reasonably certain, regardless of whether deterministic or probabilistic methods are used for the estimation. The project to extract the hydrocarbons must have commenced or the operator must be reasonably certain that it will commence the project within a reasonable time. We engaged GLJ Petroleum Consultants to prepare our reserves estimates in Turkey.

The following unaudited schedules are presented in accordance with required disclosures about oil and natural gas producing activities to provide users with a common base for preparing estimates of future cash flows and comparing reserves among companies.

All of our proved reserves are located in Turkey and all prices are held constant in accordance with SEC rules.

Oil and natural gas prices used to estimate reserves were computed by applying the volume-weighted, arithmetic average of the closing price on the first day of each month for the 12-month period prior to December 2019 and 2018. The oil and natural gas prices used to estimate reserves are shown in the table below.

	12-<br> Month Average Price
	Oil<br> per (Bbl)		Natural<br> Gas per (Mcf)
Turkey
2019	$	66.21	$	3.07
2018	$	66.21	$	3.07

ITEM9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluationof Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of December 31, 2019 (the “Evaluation Date”). This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”). Based upon that evaluation, we concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Therefore, we believe that our consolidated financial statements contained in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 fairly present our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows in all material respects.

Changesin Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during year ended December 31, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Management’sAnnual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2019. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth in by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the 2013 Framework) (COSO) in “Internal Control - Integrated Framework”.

Our management believes that because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions and that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Based on this assessment, our management concluded that, as of December 31, 2019, our internal controls over financial reporting were effective based on those criteria.

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Our management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Commission that permit us to provide only the management’s report in this Annual Report.

ITEM9B. OTHER INFORMATION

Effective April 1, 2019, the Company changed its name from Park Place Energy Inc. (OTC: PKPL) to Trillion Energy International Inc. (OTC: TCFF). The Company’s new CUSIP is 89621V103.

Notes

^(1)^

Under Rule 13d-3, a beneficial owner of a security includes any person who, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise has or shares: (i) voting power, which includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of shares; and (ii) investment power, which includes the power to dispose or direct the disposition of shares. Certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire the shares (for example, upon exercise of an option) within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares outstanding is deemed to include the number of shares beneficially owned by such person (and only such person) by reason of these acquisition rights. As a result, the percentage of outstanding shares of any person as shown in this table does not necessarily reflect the person’s actual ownership or voting power with respect to the number of common shares actually outstanding on December 31, 2019.

^(2)^

Includes warrants, restricted stock units and/or options to acquire common stock exercisable within 60 days, as follows: Parvez Tyab Family Trust – 1,250,000 warrants and 350,000 options; Aura Oil Holdings Ltd. – 350,000 options; Kishwar Tyab – 1,475,000 warrants; Arthur Halleran – 1,121,717 warrants and 2,150,000 options; David Thompson – 650,000 warrants and 1,550,000 options; Barry Wood – 650,000 options; Kubilay Yildirim – 650,000 options.
