As further described in Item 3.03 below, Triangle Petroleum Corporation, a Nevada corporation ("Triangle Nevada"), consummated a reincorporation merger (the "Reincorporation") with and into its wholly owned subsidiary, Triangle Petroleum Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), pursuant to the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger entered into between Triangle Nevada and the Company on November 29, 2012, which is attached as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference. The effective time and date of the Reincorporation was 11:59 p.m. EST on November 30, 2012 (the "Effective Time"). As a result of the Reincorporation, the Registrant is now a Delaware corporation and Triangle Nevada has ceased to exist. The directors and officers of Triangle Nevada are now the directors and officers of the Company, and the Company will continue to operate the business of Triangle Nevada as it existed immediately prior to the Reincorporation.

At the Effective Time, Triangle Nevada changed its state of incorporation from Nevada to Delaware through a merger with and into the Company, which was established for the purpose of the Reincorporation. The Reincorporation was accomplished pursuant to the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger entered into between Triangle Nevada and the Company on November 29, 2012, which is attached as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. The stockholders of Triangle Nevada approved the Reincorporation pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger at the 2012 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Triangle Nevada held on November 16, 2012.

At the Effective Time, (i) each share of Triangle Nevada's common stock, par value $0.00001, issued and outstanding was automatically converted into one share of the Company's common stock, $0.00001 par value per share (the "Common Stock"); and (ii) all options and other rights to acquire Triangle Nevada's common stock outstanding immediately before the Effective Time were also automatically converted into options and rights to acquire the same number of shares of the Company's Common Stock upon the same terms, including price. Each outstanding certificate representing shares of Triangle Nevada's common stock was deemed, without any action by the stockholders, to represent the same number of shares of the Company's Common Stock. Triangle Nevada stockholders may, but are not required to, exchange their stock certificates as a result of the Reincorporation.

In accordance with Rule 12g-3 under the Exchange Act, the shares of Common Stock of the Company were deemed to be registered under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act as the successor to Triangle Nevada. The shares of Common Stock of the Company continue to be listed on the NYSE MKT under the symbol "TPLM."

Prior to the Effective Time, the rights of Triangle Nevada's stockholders were governed by the Nevada Revised Statutes and Triangle Nevada's Articles of Incorporation, as amended, and Amended and Restated Bylaws. As a result of the Reincorporation, holders of Triangle Nevada common stock are now holders of the Company's Common Stock, and their rights as stockholders are governed by the Delaware General Corporation Law and the Company's Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws. In connection with the Reincorporation, the number of authorized shares of common stock was increased from the 70,000,000 shares under Triangle Nevada's Articles of Incorporation, as amended, to 140,000,000 shares of Common Stock under the Company's Certificate of Incorporation. The Company's Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws, and form of Common Stock certificate are attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibits 3.1, 3.2, and 4.1 respectively, and are incorporated by reference herein.

The Company hereby incorporates by reference the description of the Common Stock contained in the section entitled "Proposal No. 4 - Approval of Reincorporation in Delaware and Related Transactions" in Triangle Nevada's definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A, as filed with the SEC on October 16, 2012 (the "Proxy Statement"), including the following captions: "Securities Act Consequences" and "Comparison of Certain Rights of Stockholders Under Nevada and Delaware Law," to the extent such description relates to the common stock of the Company.
