            Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                           (Unaudited)


Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions to
Form 10-QSB and do not include all of the information and
disclosures required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. All
adjustments which are, in the opinion of management,
necessary for a fair presentation of the results of
operations for the interim periods have been made and are
of a recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed herein.
The results of operations for such interim periods are not
necessarily indicative of operations for a full year.

Principles of consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Chancellor Group, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries Radly Petroleum, Inc.
("Radly"), Lichfield Petroleum America, Inc. ("Lichfield"), and Getty
Petroleum, Inc. ("Getty"). These entities are collectively hereinafter
referred to as "the Company". All intercompany accounts and transactions
have been eliminated.

Net income (loss) per share

The net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss)
by the weighted average number of shares of common outstanding. Warrants,
stock options, and common stock issuable upon the conversion of the Company's
preferred stock (if any), are not included in the computation if the effect
would be anti-dilutive and would increase the earnings or decrease loss per
share.

Note 2. Legal Proceedings

In October, 2001 pursuant to a civil legal action against the Company's
management filed by a shareholder group in the Federal District Court of
Clark County, Nevada (the "Court"), the assets and operations of the Company
were placed by court order into receivership. In April, 2002 the Court
ordered the Company's President removed from his offices as President and
Director, finding in a civil judgement that the President had in a number of
matters breached his fiduciary duty to the Company. A new temporary Board of
Directors was appointed by the Court until shareholder election of new
Directors.
..

In September, 2001 a civil legal action was filed against the Company and
other parties in the Federal District Court of Taylor County, Texas with
the Plaintiffs alleging fraud by the Company's President involving a stock
for oil and gas property transaction. The leases underlying the properties
in dispute have been allowed to lapse by the Company, giving the Company
no further rights in them. The action was settled in 2002 with no adverse
effects to the Company.

Reserve Information

     The following estimates of proved and proved developed reserve
quantities and related standardized measure of discounted net cash flow
are estimates only, and do not purport to reflect realizable values or
fair market values of the Company's reserves. The Company emphasizes that
reserve estimates are inherently imprecise and that estimates of new
discoveries are more imprecise than those of producing oil and gas
properties. Accordingly, these estimates are expected to change as future
information becomes available. All of the Company's reserves are located
in the United States.
     Proved reserves are estimated reserves of crude oil (including
condensate and natural gas liquids) and natural gas that geological and
engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable
in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating
conditions. Proved developed reserves are those expected to be recovered
through existing wells, equipment, and operating methods.
     The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows is
computed by applying year end prices of oil and gas (with consideration of
price changes only to the extent provided by contractual arrangements)
to the estimated future production of proved oil and gas reserves, less
estimated future expenditures (based on year end costs) to be incurred in
developing and producing the proved reserves, less estimated future income
tax expenses (based on year end statutory tax rates, with consideration of
future tax rates already legislated) to be incurred on pretax net cash flows
less tax basis of the properties and available credit, and assuming
continuation of existing economic conditions. The estimated future net cash
flows are then discounted using a rate of 10 percent a year to reflect
the estimated timing of the future cash flows.

                       CHANCELLOR GROUP, INC.

ITEM 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of
         Operation

Chancellor Group, Inc. (formerly Nighthawk Capital, Inc.)("Nighthawk",
the "Company", the "Registrant") was organized under the laws of the state
of Utah in 1986 and subsequently reorganized under the laws of Nevada in 1993.
In July 1995, the Company acquired all of the issued capital of two Kentucky
based operations, Delstar Gas Systems, Inc. ("DGS") and Northstar Gas Systems,
Inc. ("NGS"), covering gas reserves, and gas transmission systems, respectively.
In December, 1995, the Company formed a wholly owned subsidiary in the state
of Kentucky, Delstar Resources, Inc. ("DRI"), which acquired
additional freehold lands and gas reserves for $5,425,000. On August 1, 1996,
the Company completed the spinoff of its wholly owned subsidiary,
Chancellor Australia Pty. Ltd., which contained all of the non-energy
operations and assets of the group. In September, 1997 the Company acquired
100% ownership of Radly Petroleum, Inc. ("Radly"), a Texas corporation, in
exchange for approximately 80% of the Company's outstanding common stock. In
July, 1998 the Company acquired 100% ownership in Lichfield Petroleum
America, Inc., ("Lichfield") a Texas corporation. In October of 2000,
the Company acquired 100% ownership of Getty Petroleum, Inc. ("Getty") in
exchange for 4,500,000 shares of restricted common stock. Chancellor Group,
Inc., Getty, Radly, Lichfield, DGS, NGS, and DRI remain as separate legal
entities and and operate as separate legal entities. The Company has taken an
impairment writedown in connection with DGS, NGS, and DRI until such time as
certain disputes between the Company and the original owners of DGS and NGS are
resolved.


Results of Operations

In the fourth quarter of 2001, the Company took a full amortization write down
on its oil and gas properties in Pecos County, Texas, and wrote off its
fixed asset investment in the Shinkle Field in Kansas. The Company's new Board
of Directors is currently seeking viable opportunities in the oil and gas
business, primarily in the areas of acquisition and development of producing
properties. The Company's activities in the first nine months of 2002
were limited due to legal proceedings leading to the replacement of the
Company's former Board.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1.	Legal Proceedings

A shareholder derivative action brought against the Company because of
its then CEO, Shane Xavier Gabriel Rodgers resulted in the District Court of
Clark County, Nevada placing the Company into receivership in October, 2001.
The receivership was subsequently lifted and on April 5, 2002 Rodgers was
fired from the Board of Directors for breaching his fiduciary duty and a new,
interim Board appointed until a shareholder meeting is held.

Chancellor Group, Inc. shareholders Lichfield Petroleum, Ltd. and Graham
Energy, Inc. also brought a legal action against Rodgers, Chancellor
Group, Inc. and Chancellor Group Inc.'s wholly owned subsidiary Getty
Petroleum, Inc. in Texas, but because Rodgers failed to enter a defense on
Chancellor Group, Inc.'s behalf, Chancellor Group, Inc. shareholders Axis
Network Pty, Ltd. and Koala Pictures Pty, Ltd. (who also initiated the
Nevada action) intervened to object on behalf of Chancellor Group, Inc.
The action was settled in 2002 with no adverse effects on the Company.

Item 3.	Defaults Upon Senior Securities - None

Item 4.	Submission of Matters To A Vote of Securities Holders - None
