ASSET SALE PROPOSED--YOUR VOTE IS VERY IMPORTANT

You are cordially invited to attend the special meeting of shareholders of Chancellor Group, Inc. to be held on Friday, November 11, 2011 at 4:00 p.m. (pacific time) at The Meeting Room, 100 South Doheny, Beverly Hills, California 90048. At this important meeting, you will be asked to consider and vote on (1) the approval of a purchase and sale agreement which provides for the sale of substantially all of the assets of Gryphon Production Company, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Chancellor Group, Inc., and (2) the approval of an amendment to Chancellor Group, Inc.'s bylaws reducing the amount of shares of common stock needed for a quorum. Chancellor Group, Inc.'s common stock is listed on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board market and trades under the symbol CHAG.OB. As of September 30, 2011, there were 67,060,030 shares of Chancellor Group, Inc. common stock issued and outstanding.

We cannot complete the asset sale and we cannot amend the bylaws unless the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Chancellor Group, Inc. common stock approve the purchase and sale agreement and the bylaw amendment. Chancellor is asking its shareholders to consider and vote on this asset sale proposal and bylaw amendment proposal at a special meeting of shareholders. Whether or not you plan to attend the special meeting, please take the time to vote by completing and returning (via first class mail, facsimile, e-mail of a PDF copy or other electronic transmission) the enclosed proxy card to Chancellor Group, Inc. or Quicksilver Stock Transfer, Chancellor's transfer agent. If you sign, date and return your proxy card without indicating how you want to vote, your proxy will be counted as a vote FOR the purchase and sale agreement and a vote FOR the amendment to the bylaws. If you do not return your proxy card, or if you do not instruct your broker how to vote any shares held for you in "street name," the effect will be a vote against the purchase and sale agreement and amendment to the bylaws.

This document contains a more complete description of the special meeting and the terms of the purchase and sale agreement and bylaw amendment. We urge you to review this entire document carefully. You may also obtain information about Chancellor Group, Inc. from documents that Chancellor has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE ASSET SALE AND SPECIAL MEETING

Q: WHAT ARE CHANCELLOR SHAREHOLDERS BEING ASKED TO VOTE UPON?

A: The shareholders of Chancellor are being asked to vote upon a proposal to approve the purchase and sale agreement providing for the sale of substantially all of the assets of Gryphon Production Company, LLC and to vote on a proposal to amend Chancellor's bylaws to reduce the number of shares needed for a quorum from a majority of the stock issued and outstanding, either in person or by proxy, to at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the stock issued and outstanding, either in person or by proxy.

Q: WHAT DOES CHANCELLOR PLAN TO DO WITH THE PROCEEDS FROM THE ASSET SALE?

A: Following consummation of the asset sale, Gryphon will maintain a total of four (4) producing wells and one (1) water disposal well. Gryphon will also retain an operator's license with the Texas Railroad Commission and continue to operate the Hood Leases itself. The proceeds from the asset sale will be used to provide working capital to Gryphon and for future corporate purposes including, but not limited to, possible acquisitions and other corporate programs and purposes that have yet to be identified.

Q: WHEN DO YOU EXPECT THE ASSET SALE TO BE COMPLETED?

A: We are working to complete the asset sale during the fourth quarter of 2011, although delays could occur.

Q: WHEN AND WHERE WILL THE CHANCELLOR SHAREHOLDER MEETING BE HELD?

A: The Chancellor shareholder meeting is scheduled to take place at 4:00 p.m.
(pacific time), on Friday, November 11, 2011 at The Meeting Room, 100 South Doheny, Beverly Hills, California 90048.

Q: WHAT VOTES ARE REQUIRED FOR APPROVAL OF THE PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT AND BYLAW AMENDMENT?

A: Approval of the purchase and sale agreement and the bylaw amendment by Chancellor shareholders requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the shares of Chancellor common stock outstanding on September 30, 2011.

A: The board of directors of Chancellor has unanimously approved and adopted the purchase and sale agreement and the amendment to the bylaws and recommends that the shareholders of Chancellor vote FOR approval of the purchase and sale agreement and FOR approval of the bylaw amendment.

Q: WHAT DO I NEED TO DO NOW?

Q: WHAT HAPPENS IF I DON'T RETURN A PROXY CARD?

A: Because approval of the purchase and sale agreement and the amendment to the bylaw requires affirmative approval of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Chancellor common stock, the failure to return your proxy card will have the same effect as a vote against the purchase and sale agreement and bylaw amendment, unless you attend the special meeting in person and vote for approval of the proposals.

Q: MAY I VOTE IN PERSON?

A: Yes. Even if you have previously completed and returned your proxy card, you may attend the special meeting and vote your shares in person.

Q: IF MY SHARES ARE HELD IN "STREET NAME" BY MY BROKER, WILL MY BROKER VOTE MY SHARES FOR ME?

A: Your broker will vote your shares only if you provide instructions on how to vote. You should instruct your broker how to vote your shares, following the directions your broker provides. If you do not provide instructions to your broker, your shares will not be voted, which will have the same effect as a vote against the proposals.

Q: WHO CAN HELP ANSWER MY QUESTIONS?

A: If you have additional questions about the asset sale or proposed bylaw amendment, you should contact Maxwell Grant, Chancellor Group, Inc., 216 South Price Road, Pampa, Texas 79065, telephone (806) 688-9697.

We are an independent oil and gas exploration and development company focused on building and revitalizing our oil and gas properties all of which are currently located in the State of Texas.

The Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Gryphon Production Company, LLC and Gryphon Field Services, LLC, own 134 wells, of which 19 are water disposal wells and 2 are gas wells, although "associated" gas is also produced from some oil wells. As of September 30, 2011, approximately 67 oil wells were actively producing. We also own and operate our 15.9 acre property, with its shop, yard and office complex. Company equipment includes two work-over rigs as well as other oil field related equipment.

In addition, we own approximately 4,420 acres of production rights on nine leases, which includes 500 acres of undrilled acreage in Gray County, Texas, approximately 300 acres of which were previously owned by Mobil, and the balance of approximately 200 acres on the Worley Combs lease. Three of the leases we own are located in Hutchinson County, Texas. The nine leases have the production rights for oil, casing-head gas and natural gas.

PROPOSED ASSET SALE OF GRYPHON PRODUCTION COMPANY, LLC

WE HAVE ATTACHED THE PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT TO THIS DOCUMENT AS APPENDIX A. PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT. IT IS THE LEGAL DOCUMENT THAT GOVERNS THE ASSET SALE.

We propose a sale whereby LCB Resources will purchase substantially all of the assets of Gryphon Production Company, LLC. We expect to complete the LCB transaction during the fourth quarter of 2011, although delays could occur. Following consummation of the transaction, Gryphon will maintain a total of four
(4) producing wells and one (1) water disposal well. Gryphon will also retain an operator's license with the Texas Railroad Commission and continue to operate the Hood Leases itself. The proceeds from the asset sale will be used to provide working capital to Gryphon and for future corporate purposes including, but not limited to, possible acquisitions and other corporate programs and purposes that have yet to be identified.

Pursuant to the terms of the purchase and sale agreement, LCB Resources will purchase and Gryphon Production Company, LLC will sell all of its right title and interest in certain leases, wells, equipment, contracts, data and other designated property representing substantially all of the assets of Gryphon. The aggregate purchase price is $2,050,000.00, subject to increase or decrease as further set forth in the purchase and sale agreement.

The special meeting of shareholders of Chancellor will be held on Friday, November 11, 2011, at 4:00 p.m. (pacific time), at The Meeting Room, 100 South Doheny, Beverly Hills, California 90048. At the special meeting, you will be asked:

RECORD DATE SET AT SEPTEMBER 30, 2011; AT LEAST A MAJORITY SHAREHOLDER VOTE REQUIRED TO APPROVE THE PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT AND BYLAW AMENDMENT (PAGE ___)

You may vote at the special meeting of Chancellor shareholders if you owned Chancellor common stock at the close of business on September 30, 2011. You can cast one vote for each share of Chancellor common stock you owned at that time. As of September 30, 2011, there were 67,060,030 shares of Chancellor common stock issued and outstanding.

Approval of the purchase and sale agreement and proposed bylaw amendment requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Chancellor common stock entitled to vote. If you fail to vote, it will have the effect of a vote against the two proposals.

You may vote your shares of Chancellor common stock by attending the special meeting and voting in person or by completing and returning the enclosed proxy card (via first class mail, facsimile, e-mail of a PDF copy or other electronic transmission). If you are the record holder of your shares, you can revoke your proxy at any time before the vote is taken at the special meeting by sending a written notice revoking the proxy or a later-dated proxy to the Chief Executive Officer of Chancellor, or by voting in person at the special meeting.

CHANCELLOR'S REASONS FOR THE ASSET SALE AND RECOMMENDATIONS OF CHANCELLOR'S BOARD (PAGE __)

Based on the reasons discussed elsewhere in this document, the board of directors of Chancellor believes that the asset sale is fair to the Company and in the best interests of the Company's sharesholders, and unanimously recommends that you vote FOR the proposal to approve the purchase and sale agreement. For a discussion of the circumstances surrounding the asset sale and the factors considered by the Chancellor's board of directors in approving the purchase and sale agreement, see page [____].

MEMBERS OF CHANCELLOR'S MANAGEMENT ARE EXPECTED TO VOTE THEIR SHARES FOR APPROVAL OF THE PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT AND AMENDMENT TO THE BYLAWS

As of September 30, 2011, the directors and executive officers of Chancellor (2 persons) were entitled to vote 23,781,300 shares of Chancellor common stock, or 35.46% of the outstanding shares of the common stock entitled to vote at the special meeting.

EFFECTIVE TIME OF THE ASSET SALE

The transaction will become effective at the date and time specified in the purchase and sale agreement. If Chancellor shareholders approve the purchase and sale agreement at the special meeting, and if all the other conditions to the

parties' obligations to effect the transaction are met or waived by the party entitled to do so, we anticipate that the transaction will be completed in the fourth quarter of 2011, although delays could occur.

We cannot assure you that the necessary shareholder approvals will be obtained or that the other conditions to completion of the transaction can or will be satisfied.

CONDITIONS TO COMPLETION OF THE ASSET SALE (PAGE__)

The completion of the transaction depends on a number of conditions being met. These include, among others:

* approval of the purchase and sale agreement by the shareholders of Chancellor;

* accuracy of each party's representations and warranties as of the closing date of the transaction;

* absence of any suit, action or other proceeding by a third party which seeks substantial damages, fines, penalties or other relief or any event that would prohibit, restrict or delay the consummation of the transaction; and

* performance or compliance in all material respects by each party with its respective covenants and obligations required by the purchase and sale agreement.

Any condition to the consummation of the transaction may be waived in writing by the party to the purchase and sale agreement entitled to the benefit of such condition. A party to the purchase and sale agreement could choose to complete the transaction even though a condition has not been satisfied, as long as the law allows it to do so. We cannot be certain when or if the conditions to the transaction will be satisfied or waived, or that the transaction will be completed.

MODIFICATIONS OR WAIVER (PAGE __)

We may amend the purchase and sale agreement and each of us may waive our right to require the other party to adhere to any term or condition of the purchase and sale agreement.

TERMINATION OF THE PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT (PAGE __)

If the transactions contemplated in the purchase and sale agreement have not closed on or before December 15, 2011, the purchase and sale agreement will automatically terminate unless LCB and Gryphon agree in writing to an extension.

If the purchase and sale agreement is terminated it will be void and have no effect, without liability on the part of any party or the directors, officers or shareholders of any party, except as specifically contemplated in the purchase and sale agreement.

A WARNING ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements contained in this proxy statement that are not statements of historical fact constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that are subject to risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements include information about possible or assumed future results of operations of Chancellor after the transaction is completed as well as information about the asset sale. Words such as "believes," "expects," "anticipates," "estimates," "intends," "continue," "should," "may," or similar expressions, are intended to identify forward-looking statements, but are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. Many possible events or factors could affect the future results and performance of our company before the asset sale or after the asset sale, and could cause those results or performance to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements.

A forward-looking statement may include a statement of the assumptions or bases underlying the forward-looking statement. We believe we have chosen these assumptions or bases in good faith and that they are reasonable. However, we caution you that assumptions or bases almost always vary from actual results, and the differences between assumptions or bases and actual results can be material. Therefore, we caution you not to place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this proxy statement. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or otherwise revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

GENERAL INFORMATION

This document constitutes a proxy statement of Chancellor and is being furnished to all record holders of Chancellor common stock in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the board of directors of Chancellor to be used at a special meeting of shareholders of Chancellor to be held on Friday, November 11, 2011. The purpose of the Chancellor special meeting is to consider and vote upon a proposal to approve the Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated as of October 18, 2011, by and between Gryphon Production Company, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Chancellor, and LCB Resources, an Oklahoma limited liability company, which provides, among other things, for the sale of substantially all of the assets of Gryphon to LCB, and to consider and vote upon a proposal to approve an amendment to the bylaws of Chancellor Group, Inc. changing the quorum requirement from a majority of the stock issued and outstanding, either in person or by proxy, to at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the stock issued and outstanding, either in person or by proxy.

CHANCELLOR SPECIAL MEETING

DATE, PLACE AND TIME OF THE SPECIAL MEETING

The special meeting of shareholders of Chancellor will be held on Friday, November 11, 2011, at 4:00 p.m. (pacific time), at The Meeting Room, 100 South Doheny, Beverly Hills, California 90048.

MATTERS TO BE CONSIDERED

The purpose of the special meeting is to consider and vote upon (1) a proposal to approve the Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated as of October 18, 2011, by and between Gryphon Production Company, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Chancellor and LCB Resources, an Oklahoma limited liability company, pursuant to which LCB Resources will purchase substantially all of the assets of Gryphon, all on and subject to the terms and conditions contained in the purchase and sale agreement, and (2) a proposal to approve an amendment to the bylaws of Chancellor Group, Inc. changing the quorum requirement from a majority of the stock issued and outstanding, either in person or by proxy, to at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the stock issued and outstanding, either in person or by proxy.

At this time, the board of directors of Chancellor is unaware of any matter, other than the matters set forth above, that may be presented for action at the special meeting.

SHARES ENTITLED TO VOTE, QUORUM AND VOTE REQUIRED

The holders of record of the outstanding shares of Chancellor common stock at the close of business on September 30, 2011 will be entitled to notice of and to vote at the special meeting. At the close of business on that date, there were 67,060,030 shares of Chancellor common stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the special meeting.

At the special meeting, the shareholders of Chancellor will be entitled to one vote for each share of common stock owned of record on September 30, 2011. The holders of a majority of the shares of Chancellor common stock entitled to vote at the special meeting must be present, either in person or by proxy, to constitute a quorum at the special meeting. The affirmative vote of at least a majority of the issued and outstanding Chancellor common stock is required to approve each of the two proposals.

Abstentions and shares held of record by a broker or nominee that are voted on any matter are included in determining whether a quorum exists. The proposal to approve the purchase and sale agreement and the amendment to the bylaws are "non-discretionary" items, meaning that brokers and banks who hold shares in an account for customers who are the beneficial owners of such shares may not give a proxy to vote those shares without specific instructions from their customers. Any abstentions and broker non-votes on a particular proposal will have the same effect as a vote against such proposal or a failure to vote on such proposal. Accordingly, our board of directors encourages you to complete, date and sign the accompanying proxy card and return it promptly to us or our transfer agent,

Quicksilver Stock Transer (via first class mail, facsimile, e-mail of a PDF copy or other electronic transmission).

On the record date, the directors and executive officers of Chancellor were entitled to vote, in the aggregate, 23,781,300 shares of Chancellor common stock, or 35.46% of the outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote at the special meeting.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF CHANCELLOR UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE FOR THE PROPOSAL TO APPROVE THE PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT AND FOR THE PROPOSAL TO APPROVE THE BYLAW AMENDMENT.

VOTING AND REVOCATION OF PROXIES

Proxies, in the form enclosed, which are properly executed by the shareholders and returned to Chancellor and not subsequently revoked, will be voted in accordance with the instructions indicated on the proxies. Any properly executed proxy on which voting instructions are not specified will be voted FOR the proposal to approve the purchase and sale agreement and FOR the proposal to approve the bylaw amendment. The proxy also grants authority to the persons designated in the proxy to vote in accordance with their own judgment if an unscheduled matter is properly brought before the special meeting.

If you are the record holder of your shares, you may revoke any proxy given pursuant to this solicitation by the board of directors of Chancellor at any time before it is voted at the special meeting by:

* giving written notice to the Chief Executive Officer of Chancellor;

* executing a proxy bearing a later date and delivering that proxy with the Chief Executive Officer of Chancellor at or before the special meeting; or

* attending and voting in person at the special meeting.

All written notices of revocation and other communications with respect to revocation or proxies should be sent to: Chancellor Group, Inc., 216 South Price Road, Pampa, Texas 79065, Attention: Maxwell Grant, Chief Executive Officer. If you hold your shares in street name with a bank or broker, you must contact such bank or broker if you wish to revoke your proxy.

SOLICITATION OF PROXIES; EXPENSES

This proxy solicitation is made by the board of directors of Chancellor. Chancellor is responsible for its expenses incurred in preparing, assembling, printing, and mailing this proxy statement. Proxies will be solicited through the mail. Additionally, directors of Chancellor intend to solicit proxies personally or by telephone or other means of communication. The directors will not be additionally compensated. Chancellor will reimburse banks, brokers and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for their reasonable expenses in forwarding the proxy materials to beneficial owners.

PROPOSAL TO APPROVE THE PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT

The following information describes material aspects of the asset sale. It is not intended to be a complete description of all information relating to the transaction and is qualified in its entirety by reference to more detailed information contained in the copy of the purchase and sale agreement (excluding exhibits and schedules) included as APPENDIX A and incorporated herein by reference. You are urged to read Appendix A in its entirety.

TERMS OF THE ASSET SALE

The purchase and sale agreement provides for the purchase by LCB Resources of all of Gryphon Production Company, LLC's right, title and interest in certain oil and gas leases, oil and gas wells and properties within the leases, equipment, contracts, production, data and other properties (collectively, the "Assets"). The Assets represent substantially all of the assets of Gryphon Production Company, LLC. If the shareholders of Chancellor approve the purchase and assumption agreement at the special meeting, and if the other conditions to the parties' obligations to effect the transaction are met or waived by the party entitled to do so, we anticipate that the transaction will be completed in the fourth quarter of 2011, although delays could occur. Following consummation of the transaction, Gryphon will maintain a total of four (4) producing wells and one (1) water disposal well. Gryphon will also retain an operator's license with the Texas Railroad Commission and continue to operate the Hood Leases itself. The proceeds from the asset sale will be used to provide working capital to Gryphon and for future corporate purposes including, but not limited to, possible acquisitions and other corporate programs and purposes that have yet to be identified.

The purchase price consideration may be increased by the following:

* the amount of all direct costs and expenditures chargeable to the Assets for periods on and after the effective time (as defined in the purchase and sale agreement) and incurred and paid by or on behalf of Gryphon, including (i) those attributable to drilling, completion, recompletion, reworking, operation and repair of the Assets, (ii) bonuses, lease rentals and shut-in payments, (iii) ad valorem, property and other taxes and (iv) amounts relating to obligations arising under contracts with respect to operations or production;

* the actual value of the oil inventory in storage attributable to the Assets net of all taxes and burdens; and

* any other amount agreed to by LCB and Gryphon.

The purchase price consideration may be decreased by the following:

* the amount of all gross proceeds for hydrocarbons (net of burdens) produced from and attributable to Gryphon's interest in the Assets on or after the effective time;

* the amount of all other proceeds and/or revenue attributable to Gryphon's interest in and to the Assets on or after the effective time; and

* any other amount agreed to by LCB and Gryphon.

Because the purchase price is subject to increase or decrease as described above, you will not know the exact amount of the purchase price in connection with the transaction when you vote on the purchase and sale agreement.

BACKGROUND OF THE ASSET SALE

During the past several years, there have been significant developments in the oil and gas industry. Many oil and gas entities have pursued growth and geographic expansion through affiliations or acquisitions of other organizations; furthermore, many larger oil and gas companies have demonstrated a willingness to pay a premium for certain oil and gas franchises for various strategic initiatives including growth and/or expansion.

From time to time, Chancellor's and/or Gryphon's board of directors and management have reviewed future prospects for earnings and asset growth and the viability of Gryphon's continued operations as an independent oil and gas company. During late 2010 and the first half of 2011, the board of directors and management began discussions regarding the strategic alternatives available to Chancellor and Gryphon for maximizing shareholder value including, among other things, continued independence and a strategic sale or affiliation with another comparable oil and gas company. In order to conduct a thorough evaluation of alternatives as well as market conditions, the board of directors believed it would be beneficial to employ an energy auction broker experienced in advising and assisting entities in examining alternatives available to oil and gas companies and their shareholders, including a possible sale or business combination.

Sprouse Shrader Smith, P.C. was contacted and retained as Chancellor's legal counsel for potential negotiations and for overall safeguarding of Chancellor and its shareholders. The firm was informed that management and the directors were in the preliminary stages of the evaluation process and had not selected an energy auction broker. During May 2011, management interviewed several potential energy advisors and/or brokers, including Midwest Energy Auction, LLC ("Midwest"). After consideration of each possibility, management decided to recommend Midwest to the board and on June 8, 2011 Chancellor engaged Midwest to render broker services in connection with a possible sale transaction with another oil and gas company.

In the following weeks, management compiled the items necessary to prepare a confidential descriptive memorandum presenting data on Chancellor and its business. Working with Midwest, a process was developed to contact and elicit interest from a group of logical prospective strategic partners who would be provided the memorandum, subject to the prior execution of a confidentiality agreement. Midwest began contacting potential strategic partners, including LCB Resources, and distributed confidentiality agreements to those who expressed an initial interest, including two interested parties who visited the property and a third interested party not introduced to Chancellor by Midwest who inspected the property.

On September 6, 2011, Chancellor's management (after authorization from the board of an acceptable price range) met with Midwest and the owner of LCB onsite at the Gryphon properties. After LCB's inspection of the properties, a verbal agreement was reached with LCB, subject to entering into a letter of intent, which was subsequently signed by LCB and delivered to Gryphon on September 9, 2011. After continued discussions and diligence, a transaction with LCB presented the best strategic opportunity for Chancellor. As part of the decision process, Chancellor's board considered the aggregate value of the proposal, the form of the consideration offered, the organization's ability to complete the transaction in a timely manner, as well as the party's general culture. On September 13, 2011, following approval from Chancellor's board and review by its attorneys, Chancellor countersigned the LCB letter of intent. Thereafter, LCB and Gryphon and their respective legal counsels began to negotiate the terms of a definitive purchase and sale agreement.

On Monday, October 18, 2011, Gryphon and LCB entered into the purchase and sale agreement.

CHANCELLOR'S REASONS FOR THE ASSET SALE AND RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE BOARD OF CHANCELLOR

Chancellor's board of directors believes that the asset sale is in the best interest of Gryphon, Chancellor and its shareholders. Accordingly, Chancellor's board of directors has unanimously approved the asset sale and the purchase and sale agreement and unanimously recommends that Chancellor's shareholders vote for approval of the purchase and sale agreement.

In approving the purchase and sale agreement, Chancellor's board of directors consulted with its oil and gas advisor and broker with respect to the financial aspects and fairness of the proposed sale and with its legal counsel as to its legal duties and the terms of the purchase and sale agreement and related agreements. The board believes that the sale of substantially all of Gryphon's assets will generate needed working capital. Following consummation of the asset sale Gryphon will maintain a total of four (4) producing wells and one
(1) water disposal well. Gryphon will also retain an operator's license with the Texas Railroad Commission and continue to operate the Hood Leases itself. The proceeds from the asset sale will be used to provide the needed working capital

to Gryphon and for future corporate purposes including, but not limited to, possible acquisitions and other corporate programs and purposes that have yet to be identified.

The terms of the purchase and sale agreement were the result of arm's length negotiations between representatives of Gryphon and representatives of LCB. In arriving at its determination to approve the purchase and sale agreement, Chancellor's board of directors considered a number of factors, including the following:

* The current oil and gas industry environment including increased competition and consolidation trends.

* Information regarding the financial condition and operations of LCB and future prospects of LCB.

* The ability of LCB to pay the purchase price consideration in cash.

* The non-economic terms of the transaction, including the impact on existing operations.

* The ability of LCB to integrate the operations of Gryphon.

The reasons set forth above for the asset sale are not intended to be exhaustive but include the material factors considered by the board of directors of Chancellor in approving the transaction and the purchase and sale agreement. In reaching its determination, the board of directors of Chancellor did not assign any relative or specific weight to different factors and individual directors may have given weight to different factors. Based on the reasons stated above, the board of directors of Chancellor believes that the transaction is in the best interests of Chancellor and its shareholders and therefore the board of directors of Chancellor unanimously approved the purchase and sale agreement and the transaction. Each member of the Chancellor board of directors has agreed to vote the stock of Chancellor over which he has voting authority in favor of the purchase and sale agreement and the transaction.

CHANCELLOR'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT CHANCELLOR
SHAREHOLDERS VOTE IN FAVOR OF THE PURCHASE AND SALE
AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTION.

EFFECTIVE TIME OF THE TRANSACTION

The asset sale will become effective at the date and time specified in the purchase and sale agreement. If the shareholders of Chancellor approve the transaction and the purchase and sale agreement at the special meeting, and if all other conditions to the parties' obligations to effect the transaction are met or waived by the party entitled to do so, we anticipate that the transaction will be completed in the fourth quarter of 2011, although delays could occur.

We cannot assure you that we can obtain the necessary shareholder approvals or that the other conditions to completion of the transaction can or will be satisfied.

CONDUCT OF BUSINESS PENDING EFFECTIVE TIME

From the date of the purchase and sale agreement to and including the closing date, Gryphon shall:

* not operate or in any manner deal with, incur obligations with respect to, or undertake any transactions relating to, the Assets except (1) in the normal, usual and customary manner for a reasonable and prudent operator, (2) of a nature and in an amount consistent with prior practice, (3) in the ordinary and regular course of business of owning and operating the Assets; and

* not (1) sell, dispose of, encumber, relinquish or otherwise alienate any of the Assets; (ii) waive, compromise or settle any right or claim that would have a material adverse effect on the ownership, operation or value of any of the Assets after the effective time; or (iii) commit to any operation, services or related activities, which would or could reasonably be expected to require future expenditures

(capital, maintenance, expense or otherwise) of the Assets in excess of $25,000 as to Gryphon's interest in any particular Asset, or terminate, materially amend or extend any agreements affecting the Assets, or allow any of the leases to lapse, terminate, or otherwise expire, without the consent of LCB, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

We refer you to the purchase and sale agreement (excluding exhibits and schedules), which is attached as APPENDIX A to this proxy statement, for additional restrictions on the conduct of the business of Gryphon pending consummation of the transaction.

CONDITIONS TO COMPLETION OF THE TRANSACTION

The purchase and sale agreement contains a number of conditions to the obligations of LCB and Gryphon to complete the transaction which must be satisfied as of the closing date, including, but not limited to, the following:

* performance or compliance in all material respects by each party with its respective covenants and obligations required by the purchase and sale agreement.

Any condition to the consummation of the transaction, except the required shareholder approval, and the absence of an order or ruling prohibiting the transaction, may be waived in writing by the party to the purchase and sale agreement entitled to the benefit of such condition.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF GRYPHON AND LCB

The waiver of any right or remedy in respect to any occurrence or event on one occasion shall not be deemed a waiver of such right or remedy in respect to such occurrence or event on any other occasion.

TERMINATION OF THE REORGANIZATION AGREEMENT

EXPENSES

Gryphon and LCB will each pay their respective expenses incurred in connection with the preparation and performance of their respective obligations under the purchase and sale agreement, whether or not the transactions provided for in the purchase and sale agreement are consummated, including, but not limited to, fees and expenses of their own counsel, financial or other consultants, and accountants. Similarly, each of Gryphon and LCB agreed to indemnify the other party against any cost, expense or liability (including reasonable attorneys' fees) in respect of any claim made by any party for certain claims.

BUSINESS OF CHANCELLOR

GENERAL

Chancellor Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation, was organized under the laws of the state of Utah in 1986 and subsequently reorganized under the laws of Nevada in 1993. We are an independent oil and gas exploration and development company focused on building and revitalizing our oil and gas properties all of which are currently located in the State of Texas. The Company is organized as a producing oil and gas company and licensed as an operator by the Texas Railroad Commission. We are in the business of acquisition, exploration, and development of oil and natural gas properties. Our common stock is quoted on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board market and trades under the symbol CHAG.OB.

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENTS

In April 2007, we commenced operations with what were 84 actual producing wells in Gray and Carson Counties in Texas. On October 30, 2007, we had filed for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code with the United States Bankruptcy Court, Northern District of Texas. On July 22, 2008, we entered into an agreement, effective as of June 1, 2008, with Legacy Reserves Operating LP ("Legacy") for the sale of certain of our oil and gas wells, accounting for approximately 84% of our oil and gas production, for a purchase price of $13,250,000. We operated in the bankruptcy proceeding until August 15, 2008, when the Bankruptcy Court, based on the agreement with Legacy, issued an order dismissing our bankruptcy case. Upon consummation of the Legacy transaction on August 29, 2008, all of the debt held by our lenders, plus accrued interest thereon, was paid in full.

DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTIES

Currently, the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Gryphon Production Company, LLC and Gryphon Field Services, LLC, own 134 wells, of which 19 are water disposal wells and 2 are gas wells, although "associated" gas is

also produced from some oil wells. As of September 30, 2011, approximately 67 oil wells were actively producing. Production capacity from these 67 producing wells in Gray County was estimated to be approximately 30 bopd and 47 mcfd gas as of September 30, 2011. The oil is light sweet crude and the natural gas has very high heat content, 1600 to 2600 btu/scf. We also own and operate our 15.9 acre property, with its shop, yard and office complex. Company equipment includes two work-over rigs as well as other oil field related equipment.

In addition, we own approximately 4,420 acres of production rights on nine leases, which includes 500 acres of undrilled acreage also in Gray County, approximately 300 acres of which was previously owned by Mobil, and the balance of approximately 200 acres on the Worley Combs lease. Three of the leases we own are located in Hutchinson County, Texas. The nine leases have the production rights for oil, casing-head gas and natural gas.

Following consummation of the transaction, Gryphon will maintain a total of four (4) producing wells and one (1) water disposal well. Gryphon will also retain an operator's license with the Texas Railroad Commission and continue to operate the Hood Leases itself. The proceeds from the asset sale will be used to provide working capital to Gryphon and for future corporate purposes including, but not limited to, possible acquisitions and other corporate programs and purposes that have yet to be identified.

EMPLOYEES

As of September 30, 2011, we had 7 full-time employees, all of which are located at our headquarters in Pampa, Texas. Management of Chancellor considers its relations with its employees to be good.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Chancellor is from time to time involved in legal proceedings arising in the normal course of business. Other than proceedings incidental to Chancellor's business, and a current proceeding against Gryphon (Cause no. 36433 in the 223rd District Court in Gray County, Texas) in which Gryphon has made a counterclaim for declaratory judgment, Chancellor is not a party to, nor is any of their property the subject of, any material legal proceedings. Although the amount of any ultimate liability with respect to such matters cannot be determined, in the opinion of Chancellor's management, any such liability will not have a material adverse effect upon Chancellor's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

PROPOSAL TO APPROVE THE AMENDMENT TO THE BYLAWS

Our board of directors voted to adopt, subject to the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Chancellor common stock, an amendment to the bylaws of the Company changing the quorum requirement from a majority of the stock issued and outstanding, either in person or by proxy, to at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the stock issued and outstanding, either in person or by proxy.

Our current bylaws provide that a quorum, for purposes of a shareholders meeting, shall exist when a majority of the stock issued and outstanding is present, either in person or by proxy, at the meeting. Our board of directors voted to adopt, subject to the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Chancellor common stock, an amendment to the bylaws of the Company to provide that a quorum shall exist when at least twenty-five (25%) of the stock issued and outstanding is present, either in person or by proxy, at the meeting.

The board of directors believes that the proposed amendment gives the board of directors the requisite flexibility to call and conduct a shareholder meeting to consider important matters which require shareholder feedback. Many of the Company's shareholders are located in geographic regions which make it difficult for the Company to receive, in a timely fashion, proxy materials with respect to shareholder meetings. The board of directors believes that the proposed amendment will allow it to more efficiently call and conduct shareholder meetings in a more timely manner.

The greater flexibility provided by the proposed amendment is expected to reduce the cost of soliciting proxies, which the Company may otherwise be required to incur to insure the requisite level of shareholder participation at the meeting. The advantages, including the potential cost savings and greater efficiency in calling and conducting shareholder meetings, outweigh the benefits of maintain the higher quorum requirement, in the judgment of the board of directors.

The affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Chancellor common stock entitled to vote at the meeting is required to approve the proposed amendment to the bylaws. If the proposal is approved, the quorum requirement will be reduced effective upon the adoption of the amendment. The full text of the proposed amendment is attached to this proxy statement as APPENDIX B.

CHANCELLOR'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT CHANCELLOR
SHAREHOLDERS VOTE IN FAVOR OF THE AMENDMENT TO THE BYLAWS.

(a) Upon the execution of this Agreement, Buyer, or Buyer's representative, shall have the right to examine and photocopy, but not take, the Data in Seller's offices during normal business hours. All such information is furnished to Buyer solely as a courtesy, and, except as otherwise set forth herein, Seller makes no representations or warranties concerning its accuracy or completeness, and assumes no liability for any use by Buyer whatsoever. Buyer shall have until November 1, 2011 as of 5:00 pm (C.D.T.) where the Properties are located (the "Defect Date") to review and inspect the Properties and to notify Seller of any Defect (as defined below). Such notice shall be in writing and shall sufficiently describe the Defect and the Properties affected. During the review period, upon not less than two business days prior notice to Seller, Buyer may review all the Data, inspect all of the Equipment, and may go upon the Leases at its own risk to do so. Buyer agrees to hold harmless and indemnify Seller for any damages or injury of any kind incurred by any party as the result of such inspection regardless of whether such damage or injury results, in whole or in part, from the sole or concurrent negligence, fault by statute, rule or regulation, strict liability or other fault of Seller. Buyer shall have access to and copies of standard financial information relating to the Properties including joint interest billing reports, lease operating expenses, production volumes and other similar information normally available in connection with the physical operation of the Properties (including, but not limited to, division orders, checks and, in the event of an audit, other Property related documents, as necessary).

(b) The term "Defect" as used herein shall mean the following:

(i) Seller's ownership of the Properties is such that, with respect to a property listed on Exhibit "A-1" hereto, it clearly (A) entitles Seller to receive a decimal share of the oil, gas and other hydrocarbons produced from, or allocated to, such property which is less than the net revenue interest decimal share set forth on Exhibit "A-1", (B) causes Seller to be obligated to bear a working interest decimal share of the cost of operation of such property greater than the decimal share set forth on Exhibit "A-1" (without a proportionate increase in the share of production to which Seller is entitled to receive from such property);

(ii) Seller's ownership of the Properties is subject to a lien other than (A) liens which will be released at or before Closing, (B) a lien for taxes not yet delinquent, or (C) a lien under an operating agreement or similar agreement which relates to expenses incurred which but not yet due;

(iii) Seller's ownership of the Properties is subject to a preferential right to purchase, unless an appropriate tender of the applicable interest has been made by Seller to the party holding such right and the period of time required for such party to exercise such right has expired without such party exercising such right;

(iv) A Property is affected by any suit, action or other proceeding before any court or government agency that would result in a material loss or impairment of Seller's title to any portion of the Property, or a portion of the value thereof; and

A-10

(v) The Properties are, or one or more Property is, in violation of Environmental Laws.

(vi) As used in this Agreement, the term "Environmental Laws" means any and all applicable laws pertaining to human health or conservation or protection of the environment, wildlife, or natural resources in effect in any and all jurisdictions in which the Properties are located, including, without limitation, the Clean Air Act, as amended, the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, as amended, the Safe Drinking Water Act, as amended, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, as amended ("CERCLA"), the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986, as amended ("SARA"), the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, as amended ("RCRA"), the Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments Act of 1984, as amended, the Toxic Substances Control Act, as amended, and the Occupational Safety and Health Act, as amended ("OSHA"), and any applicable state, tribal, or local counterparts. The terms "hazardous substance", "release", and "threatened release" shall have the meanings specified in CERCLA; the terms "solid waste," "hazardous waste," and "disposal" shall have the meanings set out in RCRA; provided, however, that to the extent the laws of the state in which the Properties are located are applicable and have established a meaning for "hazardous substance", "release", "threatened release", "solid waste", "hazardous waste", and "disposal" that is broader than that specified in CERCLA or RCRA, such broader meaning shall apply with respect to the matters covered by such laws.

(c) If Buyer fails to notify Seller in writing by the Defect Date of any such Defect, the Defect will be deemed waived, Seller shall be released from any liability therefor, the parties shall proceed with Closing, Seller shall be under no obligation to correct the Defect, and Buyer shall assume the risks, liability and obligations associated with such Defect. Seller may, but is not obligated, to cure any Defect within ten (10) days after Seller receives timely written notice of the Defect. If Seller fails to cure the Defect by the time required, Buyer may terminate this Agreement by providing written notice to Seller within five (5) days after the time by which Seller must cure the Defect. If Buyer terminates this Agreement for Seller's failure to cure a Defect, the Deposit shall be refunded to Buyer.
