He now acts only as a consultant to the Company, and actively assists the Board of Directors, using his extensive background in management of public companies including two current and two former investees of the Company.
CPVD is one of the largest investees of Enercorp. Itin is currently Chairman and CEO of CPVD, in which Itin holds a minority beneficial ownership. Itin is also Chairman of Ajay, Chairman and CEO of PGI, and Chairman and CEO of PG. com, the three other Enercorp investees. Itin may be deemed to have controlling interest in Ajay.

NOTE 6: BOARD OF DIRECTORS CHANGES.
None.
6.7.
CONTINGENCIES
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the financial statements, for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2005 the Company had a net operating loss of $117,944, cash flows deficiency from operations of $319,864, a working capital deficiency of $409,998 and an accumulated deficit of $1,126,811.
The Company did not earn any revenues during the quarters ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 and was mainly dependent upon a related party to fund its working capital. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is partially dependent on the sale of the Company's investments, borrowing against collateral, and bringing new investments. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
6.8.
ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
6.8.1.
Material Changes in Financial Condition:
The Company’s liquidity is affected primarily by the business success, securities prices and marketability of its investee companies and by the amount and timing of new or incremental investments it makes, as well as the availability of borrowing under its credit lines.
For the nine-month period ending March 31, 2005, the investments value decreased by $427,383. This change is due to sale of a portion of investments in Ajay, CPVD, and PGI for the total proceeds of $50,000, causing a decrease of approximately $41,000 in total fair value of the Company’s portfolio. The value of CompuSonics Video Corporation stock decreased from $0.053 per share at June 30, 2004 to $0.015 per share at March 31, 2005. Total net fair market value of CPVD common stock was $99,776 at March 31, 2005. Fair value of PGI investment decreased from $4.915 per share at June 30, 2004 to $3.00 per share at March 31, 2005. Total net fair value of PGI investment was $172,159 at March 31, 2005.
Current liabilities increased $77,339 from June 30, 2004 to March 31, 2005. The Company received $325,000 from various investors in exchange for 368,318 Legended Convertible Preferred shares of Company’s stock, subsequently cancelled. The Company used $290,000 of the proceeds to pay outstanding liabilities in August 2004 and some other operating expenses including legal fees. The $50,000 of proceeds from the sale of investments were used to defend the expensive lawsuit filed by the shareholder George Burmann, organize the annual meeting of the shareholders, solicitation regarding the proxy contest, management fees etc.
Net assets value decreased by $504,288 from June 30, 2004 to March 31, 2005.
6.8.2.
Liquidity and Capital Resources.
The Secured Note due to several investors in the amount of $325,000 is currently past due. The Company’s Board of Directors is considering selling additional shares of the Company’s investment portfolio in order to generate sufficient cash to pay off its outstanding liabilities, and cover its operation costs, which increased significantly due to legal expenses, shareholder meetings costs, and the proxy contest initiated by Burmann.
The Company has an issued and outstanding promissory note of $30,000 to Wen Group. The validity of the Wen Group claim is challenged and has been declared invalid due to the fact that the “Wen Group” did not fulfill requirements of its subscription agreement in 2001.
6.8.3.
Results of Operations. Three months ended March 31, 2005 compared to three months ended March 31, 2004.
The Company had $8,961 gain from sale of investments for the quarter ended March 31, 2005, and no revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2004.
The Company recorded $6,785 and $2,013 of accounting and transfer agent expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2005, and 2004, respectively. The increase is mainly due to transfer agent fees for this period related to the February 1, 2005 annual meeting of the shareholders.
The Company recorded $1,296 and $30 in legal fees for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. These legal expenses for the current period are due to the lawsuit filed against the Company by George Burmann.
The Company recorded $7,500 in management fees due to Acrodyne for each of the quarters ended March 31, 2005 and 2004. Enercorp has an agreement with Acrodyne to pay a $2,500 per month management fee for office space and services including accounting and financial reporting. Currently the Company has no full time employees.
The Company recorded $5,610 of interest expense on the secured notes to the August 2004 investors, compared to $1,280 of related parties interest expense recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2004. The increase is due to the secured notes of $325,000. Interest on these notes is accrued based on a 7% rate per annum.
The Company recorded other general and administrative expenses of $3,638 and $76 for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Other General and administrative expenses include telephone, postage, and other miscellaneous expenses. The increase in these expenses for the current quarter is mainly due to shipping and mailing costs incurred in relation with the two annual shareholders meetings.
The Company recorded a legal contingency of $6,923.19 for this quarter. This is due to the consequences of the legal fight in Denver started by George Burmann over a year ago. The Company has made no payments on this contingency still due as of May 16, 2005.
The Company recorded an unrealized loss on investments of $74,327 and $33,159 for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. This is mainly due to the decrease in fair value of the Company’s investments in CPVD and PGI.
6.8.4.
Results of Operations. Nine months ended March 31, 2005 compared to nine months ended March 31, 2004.
The Company had $8,961 gain from sale of investments for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2005, and no revenues for the same period ended March 31, 2004.
The Company recorded $0 and $25,000 of salaries to Mr. Itin for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Mr. Itin resigned from all the positions held with Enercorp, Inc on September 14, 2003.
The Company recorded $18,245 and $9,830 of accounting and stock transaction expenses for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2005, and 2004, respectively. The increase is mainly due to the stock transaction costs incurred by the Company’s transfer agent during this current period. These costs are related to the two annual meetings of shareholders.
The Company recorded $43,907 and $207 in legal fees for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The increase in such expenses is related to the lawsuit filed against the Company by George Burmann.
The Company recorded $32,500 and $22,500 in management fees for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The increase in such fees is due to a $10,000 consulting fee paid to the former general manager of the Company for the month of August 2004. He was hired primarily to work on the Burmann lawsuit, and the shareholders meeting.
The Company recorded $15,146 and $3,631 of interest expense for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The change is due to the increase in principal related to the secured notes of $325,000. Interest on these notes is accrued based on a 7% rate per annum.
The Company recorded $3,285 of travel expense for this period related to the lawsuit filed against Enercorp by Burmann.
The Company recorded other general and administrative expenses of $ 6,899 and $1,426 for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Other General and administrative expenses include telephone, postage, and other miscellaneous expenses. The increase is mainly due to printing, shipping and mailing costs incurred in relation with the two annual meetings of shareholders conducted on September 10, 2004 and February 1, 2005.
The Company recorded a legal contingency of $6,923.19 for this quarter. This is due to the consequences of the legal fight in Denver started by George Burmann over a year ago. The Company has made no payments on this contingency still due as of May 16, 2005.
The Company recorded an unrealized loss on investments of $652,657 and a gain of $93,213 for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. This change is due to the decrease in fair value of the Company’s investments in CPVD and PGI.

ITEM 3: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Evaluation of Controls and Procedures
Company’s Chief Excecutive Officer and Chief Financial officer have performed an evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “ Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by the report and each has concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and regulations.
Changes in Internal Controls
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the period ended March 31, 2005 to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1. Legal Proceedings
6.10.1.1.
Bumann vs. Enercorp, Inc
(See Item 1. Legal proceedings in the previous quarterly report.)
On March 8, 2005, Denver District Court has awarded Burmann $6,923.18 of attorney fees. The Company has strong reasons to believe those fees should have not been awarded to Burmann. It is the opinion of the Company’s Board of Directors that Plaintiff was motivated by other than a lawful purpose, and that Plaintiff’s expressed intention to effect a change in the Company’s management was contrary to the best interest of the Company and its shareholders. (See the following Case in 6.10.1.2). In addition, Burmann has taken several actions including liens and bank garnishment in order to collect the $6,923.19. The Company has made no payments on this contingency still due as of May 16, 2005.
6.10.1.2.
First Equity Corporation, CompuSonics Video Corporation, and Enercorp, Inc vs. Target Holding B. V,a partnership(“Target A”), Target Holding B.V, a consummated Netherlands business entity (“Target B”), Senol Halfar, Dietgard Adrian, George Burmann, Dana Burmann, H.J Gullug, Halfar Consulting, and Gunnallen Financial, Inc.
The Company is a Plaintiff party in the above lawsuit filed on January 31, 2005 in the United States District Court, Eastern District of Michigan, Southern Division. The Complaint alleges Fraud, Conspiracy, Breach of Contract, Defamation and Breach of Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release, and Violations of Securities Law.
Defendant, Target A, initially established, in 2001, a securities account with Defendant, Gunnallen Financial, which account was managed by Defendant George Burmann. The purpose of this account was to receive shares of CPVD common stock from Plaintiff, First Equity Corporation and other CPVD shareholders, so Target A could receive approximately 32 million of such shares, pay Plaintiff, First Equity, and others, if any, for shares at prices ranging from one cent to two cents per share, so that those shares of CPVD could then be sold by Defendants Halfar, Burmann, and Gunallen for higher prices in the market for the purpose of realizing profits on behalf of Target A and raising equity capital for CPVD.
Defendants used a second entity in the Netherlands, Target B, with different owner, from Target A without informing Plaintiffs First Equity, CPVD, and Enercorp and without paying fully for stock delivered to George Burmann and Gunallen for the account of Target A. Burmann, Halfar, and Gunallen failed to provide requested information to First Equity, CPVD, Harald Engels, providing false pretexts and accuses. To the best of the Plaintiffs knowledge and belief, Defendants were able to sell over one million U.S dollars worth of CPVD stock, which Plaintiffs had tendered to the said Gunallen account in absolute good faith.
Defendants diverted and converted the profits of sale of CPVD stock to Target B, Halfar, George Burmann, and others in order to defraud their partner in Target A, Engels and First Equity, and CPVD. Upon information and belief, defendants utilized the wrongfully diverted profits to launch and to help finance a scheme to take over Enercorp, and to help finance litigation that they brought in the name of George Burmann against Enercorp in Denver, Colorado for purposes of attempting to take over Enercorp to the detriment of First Equity, CPVD, and the Enercorp shareholders.
Plaintiffs have requested in whatever amount the Court deems appropriate, together with exemplary and/or punitive damages, costs, interest, and actual reasonable attorney fees, as permitted by law for their wrongful acts, and their willful, wanton misconduct.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
On February 1, 2005 Enercorp held its 2004 Annual Meeting of Shareholders at its corporate headquarters in Farmington Hills, Michigan. Enercorp’s management prevailed in the proxy solicitation initiated by George Burmann, a 6.5% Shareholder from Florida.. (See Attached Report on Form 8-K filed on February 2, 2005.)
The following proposals were submitted to a vote of security holders.
1.
PROPOSAL NO. 1: to elect three Directors to serve until the next Annual Meeting of Shareholders and until their successors have been elected and qualified.
2.
PROPOSAL NO. 2: to ratify the appointment of JL Stephan & Co. P.C. as the independent registered auditors of the Company for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005. The fees paid to the independent registered auditors for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2002, 2003, 2004 are disclosed in the accompanied Proxy Statement in the section “Proposal Number Two –Ratification of the Appointment of the Company’s Independent Registered Auditors”. (Passage of this Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the majority of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares entitled to vote on this Proposal.)
3.
PROPOSAL NO. 3: to amend its Articles of Incorporation to reduce the voting requirement for approval of certain actions from two-thirds to a majority of the Common Stock and Preferred Stock entitled to vote on the action. (Passage of this Proposal requires the affirmative vote of two-thirds of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares entitled to vote on this Proposal.)
4.
PROPOSAL NO. 4: to authorize the Company to change the nature of its business and withdraw its status as a Business Development Company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. (Passage of this Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the majority of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares entitled to vote on this Proposal.)
5.
Such other business as may properly come before the Meeting, or any adjournment or adjournments thereof.
Shareholders approved Proposal 1. Reelected to the Board of Directors were James C. Sargent, an attorney and former U. S. Securities and Exchange (SEC) Commissioner and former Regional Administrator of the New York Regional Office of the SEC; Dr. Jeffrey E. Rautio of Livonia MI; and Salvatore M. Parlatore, MBA, Brand Manager, Whirlpool Corp. and a resident of Stevensville MI. These directors will serve the Company until their successors are duly elected and qualified.
Shareholders ratified appointment of Enercorp’s independent auditors (Proposal 2), and disapproved amending the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to require 50 percent shareholder approval for certain actions (Proposal 3). Shareholders also denied Management’s request to withdraw from regulations as a Business Development Company (BDC) (Proposal 4).
Dissident Shareholder George Burmann, a German citizen residing in Florida, left halfway through the Annual Meeting with his Colorado attorney and another shareholder. They declined to wait until the final proxy tabulations were calculated by ADP (Automatic Data Processing, Inc.) but not certified in time to determine if a quorum was present in order to conduct the Annual Meeting. Ironically, after Burmann left, ADP did report a change in tabulations from 3:00pm of January 31, 2005, but added a few shares in favor of Burmann.
Despite discussion over legality of several groups of proxies, Management would have won by any method used by the independent Inspector of Elections to count the final tally.
Burmann and Senol Halfar from Germany, named Defendants in a lawsuit filed on January 31, 2005 by Enercorp, Inc. and other parties in Eastern District of Michigan, Southern Division, United States District Court in Detroit (Case Number 2:05CV70341) accepted service from the process server upon their arrival at the Annual Meeting. “The Complaint alleges Fraud, Conspiracy, Breach of Contract, Defamation and Breach of Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release, and Violations of Securities Law.
