                          INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
of Spartan Oil Corporation

         I  have  audited  the  accompanying   balance  sheets  of  Spartan  Oil
Corporation  as of December  31, 1996 and 1995,  and the related  statements  of
operations, stockholders' equity and accumulated deficit, and cash flows for the
years ended  December  31, 1996 and 1995.  These  financial  statements  are the
responsibility of the Company's  management.  My responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

         I conducted my audit in accordance  with  generally  accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards  require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the  accounting  principles  used and  significant  estimates  made by
management,  as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
I believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

         In my opinion,  the  financial  statements  referred  to above  present
fairly,  in all  material  respects,  the  financial  position  of  Spartan  Oil
Corporation  as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of operations and
its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

         The accompanying  financial statements have been prepared assuming that
the Company  will  continue as a going  concern.  As  described in Note D to the
financial statements the Company is a start up enterprise and presently does not
have  capital  resources  which  raises  doubt  about the  Company's  ability to
continue  as a going  concern.  The  financial  statements  do not  include  any
adjustment that might arise from the outcome of this uncertainty.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                           December 31, 1996 and 1995

Note A - Nature of Business  and  Summary of  Significant  Accounting  Policies:
History:  The Company was  organized  under the laws of the State of Delaware on
January 5, 1988 under the name of Oliver  Owen  Corporation,  and on October 19,
1988 changed its name to Spartan Oil  Corporation.  The Company has been seeking
capital to purchase a business and/or to merge with an existing business.

Basis of Accounting:

It is the Company's  policy to prepare its  financial  statements on the accrual
basis of accounting in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
Sales are recorded as income in the period in which they are earned and expenses
are recognized in the period in which the related liability is incurred.

Revenue Recognition:

Revenue is recognized when work is performed and amount invoiced.

Cash and Cash Equivalents:

For purposes of the  statement of cash flows,  the Company  considers all highly
liquid  debt  instruments  with a  maturity  of three  months or less to be cash
equivalents.

Loss per Common Share:

Loss  applicable  to common  share is based on the  weighted  average  number of
shares of common stock outstanding during the year.

Accounting Estimates:

The preparation of financial  statements in conformity  with generally  accepted
accounting   principles  requires  management  to  make  certain  estimates  and
assumptions  that affect the amount  reported in the  financial  statements  and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Income Tax:

The Company is subject to the greater of federal income taxes computed under the
regular system or the alternative  minimum tax (ATM) system. The Company uses an
asset and  liability  approach for the  accounting  and  financial  reporting of
income  tax.  Under  this  method,  deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  are
determined based on temporary differences between the financial carrying amounts
and the tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in
the years in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse.

value of $1.00. No preferred stock is outstanding.

Note C - Income Taxes:

The Company had net operating  losses totaling of $10,367  through  December 31,
1996. No deferred tax asset has been  recognized  for the operating  loss as any
valuation allowance would reduce the benefit to zero.

Note D - Going Concern:

The Company has minimal capital resources available to meet obligations expected
to be  incurred  given  that  it is a  start  up  enterprise.  Accordingly,  the
Company's continued existence is dependent upon the successful  operation of the
Company's plan of operations,  selling common stock in the Company, or obtaining
financing.  Unless  these  conditions  among  others are met, the Company may be
unable to continue as a going concern.
