                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)

1. Significant Accounting Policies and Nature of Operations

Description of Business

National Energy Corporation ("the Company") is in the business of developing
energy reclamation processes and recycling, including the operation of used tire
recycling and collection services since 1997. Until November 1998, the Company
operated a tire recycling and collection service in Kansas City, Missouri. In
November 1998, the Company sold that recycling and collection business and
purchased a facility in Hutchins, Texas which includes 26 acres of property used
for tire disposal and reclamation. During 2002 and 2003, the Company operated
the Hutchins facility, as well as engaging in the development of alternative
energy conversion processes and related technologies. The Company has an
exclusive license to a patented tire combustor.

The Company is the successor to Nathaniel, Ltd., an entity incorporated in the
State of Colorado on February 24, 1992. In 1998, Nathaniel, Ltd. was
recapitalized via stock exchanges with two publicly traded shell companies, as
more fully described in Footnote 3.

Business Segments

Nathaniel's operations are presently conducted in a single, energy division,
including tire reclamation and combustor services.

Investment

Investment in certain companies in which the Company owns a 20% or less interest
are accounted for under the cost method.

Revenue Recognition

The Company charges tipping fees to the public for disposing of waste tires.
These fees are fully earned and recognized when the tires are accepted at the
facility. The Company also earns revenue from the sale of processed tire shreds.
This revenue is recognized when the shreds are delivered to the end user. The
Company enters into contracts for the delivery of tire shreds. These contracts
specify quality standards for attributes such as shred size and steel content.
The Company's customers accept shipments of tire shreds subject to these
specifications. The Company employs internal quality control processes to reduce
the risk of significant returns and allowances of tire shreds sold. Sales
returns are accrued based on the Company's historical experience.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all
highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an initial maturity of three
months or less, to be cash equivalents.

Property and Equipment and Related Depreciation

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided using the
straight-line method. Estimated useful lives of the assets used in the
computation of depreciation are as follows:

        Machinery and equipment                              5 - 7 years
        Buildings                                               25 years
        Vehicles                                                  5 years

                                       6

<PAGE>


Licenses and Goodwill

Licenses and goodwill are intangible assets recorded at their purchased cost.
Intangible assets deemed to have an indefinite useful life will be subject to an
annual review for impairment using fair value measurement techniques. Pursuant
to FASB 142, the Company will perform its annual impairment review during the
fourth quarter each year, commencing in the fourth quarter of 2002. Intangible
assets such as licenses having a definite term are amortized over the useful
life.

Inventory

Inventory consists of processed and partially processed tire shreds, which are
held for sale to end users. At March 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002, the Company
had contracts to sell processed tire shred at an agreed upon per ton price. Tire
shred inventory is valued at its cost to produce, but in an amount not to exceed
realizable value, determined with respect to existing contractual sales prices,
less costs to complete the tire processing.

Advertised Costs

The Company expenses non-direct advertising costs as incurred. The Company did
not incur any direct response advertising costs during the periods ended March
31, 2003 and March 31, 2002 to be capitalized and deferred to future periods.

Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

SFAS No.128, "Earnings Per Share" requires presentation of basic (loss) or
earnings per share ("Basic EPS") and diluted (loss) or earnings per share
("Diluted EPS").

The computation of basic loss per share is computed by dividing loss available
to common stockholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common
shares during the period. Diluted loss per share gives effect to all dilutive
potential common shares outstanding during the period. The computation of
diluted EPS does not assume conversion, exercise or contingent exercise of
securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect on earnings. During the
periods presented, the Company had no potentially dilutive securities
outstanding.

Use of Estimates

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

Equity Issued for Non-cash Compensation

The Company values shares issued in considered of services or other non-cash
compensation at a price paid in contemporaneous cash sales of equivalent
securities. If no contemporaneous cash sales exist, the Company values non-cash
equity issuances at the fair value of the goods or services received in
exchange. Options or warrants issued to non-employees and consultants are
recorded using the fair value method, based on a Black-Scholes option pricing
model. The Company uses the intrinsic value method to account for options issued
to employees.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, short-term
debt and accounts payable approximate cost because of the immediate or
short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The fair value of the
Company's long-term note and interest receivable from officers and related
parties does not significantly differ from cost at March 31, 2003.


                                       7

Income Taxes

Under SFAS 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," deferred tax assets and
liabilities are generally determined based on the difference between the
financial statements and the tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted
tax rates in effect for the years in which the differences are expected to
reverse. Recognition of a deferred tax asset is allowed if future realization is
more-likely-than-not. The Company has provided a full valuation allowance for
its deferred tax asset because its realization is not considered
more-likely-than-not.

Stock-Based Compensation

The FASB's SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" encourages,
but does not require, companies to record compensation cost for stock-based
employee compensation plans at fair value. The Company has chosen to account for
stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in
Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees", and related interpretations. Accordingly, compensation cost for the
stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of
the Company's stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must
pay to acquire the stock. During the periods presented, the Company had no stock
options subject to the provisions of applicable accounting standards. (See
"Stock Option Plan", below.)

Long-Lived Assets

In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("FASB") Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 144, "Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets", the Company reviewed its
long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the related carrying amount may not be recoverable. Recovery of
assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of
the assets to the future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset.
If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is
measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the
fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of
the carrying amount or fair value less the cost to sell.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board FASB issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards FASB No. 145, "Rescission of SFAS Statements No.
4, 44, and 64, amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and the Technical
Corrections". SFAS No. 145 rescinds Statement No. 4, which required gains and
losses from extinguishments of debt to be classified as an extraordinary item,
net of tax. SFAS 145, when adopted, will require applying the criteria of
Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30, "Reporting the Results of Operations
- Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business and
Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions" in
determining how to classify gains and/or losses resulting from extinguishments
of debt. The effective date of adoption of SFAS No. 145 is for fiscal years
beginning after May 15, 2002. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS
No. 145 to have a material effect on its financial position o results of
operations.

In July 2002, FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated With
Exit of Disposal Activities". This Statement requires the recognition of costs
related to exit or disposal activities at the time they are incurred, rather
then the previously accepted method of recognizing such costs at the commitment
date of such activities. SFAS 146 is effective for such activities entered into
or modified after December 31, 2002. The provision of this statement for assets
held for sale or other disposal generally are required to be applied
prospectively after the adoption date to newly initiated by management. As a
result, the Company cannot determine the potential effects that adoption of SFAS
146 will have on the financial statements with respect to future disposal
decision, if any.

In December 2002, FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock Based
Compensation - Transition and Disclosure", which amended Statement No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock Based Compensation". SFAS No. 148 provides for the use of
alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based
method of accounting for stock based compensation. It also mends the disclosure
requirements of Statement No. 123 to require prominent disclosure of the

                                       8

<PAGE>


Company's method of accounting for such compensation and the effect of the
method used on reported results in annual and interim financial statement. SFAS
No. 148 is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2002 and
interim periods beginning after December 15, 2002. The Company does not expect
the adoption of SFAS No. 148 to have a material effect on its financial position
or results of operations. See "Stock Option Plan" below.

2. Going Concerns

The Company has experienced repeated operating losses, resulting in minimal
capital resources presently available to meet obligations which normally can be
expected to be incurred by similar companies, and to carry out its planned
operations. It has deficiency in working capital at December 31, 2002
approximating $6.8 million, a deficiency in stockholders equity approximately $4
million. It has a deficiency in working capital at December 31, 2002,
approximately $6.8 million and a deficiency in shareholders' equity of
approximately $4.0 million.

Management has negotiated financing arrangements to provide cash flow for the
Company's continued operations. For the first three quarters of 2002, the
Company arranged debt financing of approximately $3,500,000 which was used to
acquire equipment and an interest in a Helium project, which is expected to
generate positive cash flow (see Note 10). In addition, the Company has both
formally and informally renegotiated repayment terms for existing obligations
which are currently in default. Cash flow is supplemented by operating cash
flows from the Company's Texas tire facility.

Management's Plan Going Forward

Management plans to increase revenues in its facilities in its' Texas tire
recycling plant and in its Oklahoma helium plant and gathering station by
expanding current operations. The Hutchins, Texas tire reclamation facility has
been outfitted to 90% of its maximum manufacturing capacity by means of new
equipment purchased in 2002, innovative design and strategic placement of
existing equipment. These developments will allow the facility to process the
maximum tire quantities per pro-forms projections that will increase its revenue
streams. On April 03, 2003 the Nathaniel Energy Corporation acquired the
remaining 81.45% of Keyes Helium Company, LLC from Colorado Interstate Gas/El
Paso. In addition the Company purchased the Keyes Gathering System and the
Sturgis Gas Processing Plant and compressor station. These facilities are
located in Keyes, OK on a 14,924-acre site. Keyes Helium Plant operates a
three-stage helium extraction, purification and lignification plant that is
strategically connected on the Bureau of Land Management's (EIM) helium reserve
and pipeline system making it beneficial for companies to utilize our services.
On April 3, 2003 the Company executed a "Take and Pay" Operation Agreement with
Colorado Interstate Gas (CIG) for a minimum three year term for the processing
and sale of low Btu gas for their pipeline needs. The Company is negotiating new
leases to add revenues to the already profitable operation that will increase
cash flow to the Company. The Company has entered into negotiations with third
party companies (Producers) for gathering and processing gas from additional
wells and gathering fields.

September 6, 2011 and December 4, 2012, respectively, while the patent expected
to issue 2003 will have a life of seventeen years from the date of issue.
Concurrent with an in consideration for the assignment of the technology in July
1998, Nathaniel Energy entered into a companion agreement with Messrs. Stanley
and Brett Abrams which requires a reassignment of the Thermal Combustor
technology to them in the event either one or neither of them is not fully
employed by Nathaniel Energy as an officer, Stanley as president and chief
executive officer, Brett as a vice president and chief operating officer and
both as directors. Furthermore, this companion agreement provides for a
reassignment of the technology to Messrs. Abrams in the event Nathaniel Energy
ceases business operations or becomes financially bankrupt. Nathaniel Energy and
Messrs. Abrams intend to examine the desirability of replacing and may replace
the assignment of ownership in the technology to Nathaniel Energy with the grant
by Messrs. Abrams of a perpetual, non-expiring, royalty free license to
Nathaniel Energy subject to automatic termination upon the occurrence of any one
of the events that would now require Nathaniel at the present time to reassign
the technology to Messrs. Abrams. Counsel has suggested to Messrs. Abrams and
Nathaniel Energy that a license may be a more desirable and effective means of
achieving the results intended by all parties than is achieved by the existing
assignment and companion agreement, particularly in the event of business
cessation or bankruptcy.

13. Commitments and Contingencies

Nathaniel Europe Limited
On December 10, 1999m the Company entered into a proposed agreement with
McCormack consultants ("MCC") to form an Irish based company to be known as
Nathaniel Europe Limited ("NEL"). Under the terms of the proposed agreement, the
Company was required to contribute to NEL a thermal combustor capable of
processing 500,000 tons of solid waste material per year. In addition, the
Company was required to provide NEL with a cash investment of $350,000 and
assign rights to the use of its technology for Ireland and the United Kingdom.

In exchange for the above plus the issuance of additional shares to equal 20% of
shares of the Company (2,560,614 shares of common stock as of December 31,
1999), the Company was to receive 20% of the initially issued shares of NEL, as
well as 40% of the net revenues of NSC for the first 24 months of the
operations. Subsequent to December 10, 1999, MCC assigned its interest in the
contract to Life Energy Corporation . NEC takes the position that such
assignment became invalid because of the non-compliance of performance on the
part of MCC. On February 4, 2000 MCC and associates met in the offices of NEC
and changed all terms and conditions of the original proposed Agreement and the
NEC board adopted minutes reflecting the changes to provide for performance on
the part of MCC, which they never complied to or completed again making the
proposed Agreement null and void.

After a series of disagreements as to the responsibilities of each of the
parties to NEL agreement, Life Energy Corporation notified the Company that they
considered the Company to be in violation of several provisions of that
agreement. Nathaniel Energy disputes this claim. On July 18, 2000 and again on
October 6, 2000 Nathaniel Energy Corporation's attorney notified McCormack and
Consultants that the agreement dated December 10, 1999 between Nathaniel Energy
Corporation and McCormack Consultants was invalid and non-enforceable due to
fraudulent misrepresentations on the part of McCormack and non-performance on
the terms of the agreement. Nathaniel Energy's counsel demanded the return of
the Nathaniel Combustor and properties that were being unlawfully held by
McCormack et al. On December 31, 2001, Life Energy Corporation is maintaining
physical possession of the combustor equipment in Ireland. The Company has
investigated its options for reclaiming the equipment, and intends to vigorously
contest Life Energy's claims. The likelihood of successful recovery of the
combustor equipment and the extent of potential damage to its condition cannot
be determined at this time. The accompanying financial statements of the year
ended December 31, 2001 include a charge to operations of approximately $470,000
to reflect this uncertainty, representing a charge off of the net carrying value
of the combustor equipment.

Other Litigation and Claims
The Company is a defendant in AMB Fabrication and Machining, LLC, vs. Nathaniel
Energy Corporation, Case No. 2002 CV 0094, District Court, County of Douglas,
Colorado. The plaintiff alleges damages of approximately $41,000 for unpaid
labor and materials invoices. The Company is defending on the basis that the
plaintiff's claims are partially paid and the balance claimed is unreasonable.
The unpaid amount is included in accounts payable at December 31, 2002.

The Company is subject to a variety of litigation and claims relating to past
due payments for goods and services. The Company is in the process of
negotiating settlement arrangements for these items, and the estimated
settlement amounts are recorded on the books in accounts payable.

14. Subsequent Events

On April 03, 2003 the Nathaniel Energy Corporation acquired the remaining 81.45%
of Keyes Helium Company, LLC from Colorado Interstate Gas/El Paso for an amount
of $8,658,855.12. In addition, the Company purchased the Keyes Gathering System
and the Sturgis Gas Processing Plant and Compressor Station for an amount of
$1,288,360, both of which are subsidiaries of El Paso Gas.

On April 03, 2003 Keyes Helium Company, LLC was purchased by Nathaniel Energy
Oklahoma Holding Corporation (NEC OK) for $8,658,855. This Corporation is owned
51% by Nathaniel Energy Corporation.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations,
        Liquidity and Financial Condition.

Results of Operations for the Period ended March 31, 2003

For the period March 31, 2003 revenue decreased from $135,906 in 2002, to
$104,915, a decrease of $30,994 or 22.8 percent. This decrease in revenue is
primarily due to Nathaniel Energy's suspension of new tire receipts in the
Dallas facility during the months of April through December 2002. This
suspension was a result of making design changes required by Texas for the
re-issuance of permits to operate the facility. The decrease was partially
offset by increased sales of tire shreds from existing inventory and the fact
that the company was able to ramp up tire receipts during the period ended March
31, 2003. The Company estimates it has achieved sixty percent (60%) of tire
receipts of the same period in 2002.

Cost of sales increased from $79,039 in 2002 to $147,464 in 2003, a increase of
$68,425, or 86.5 percent. The increase is primarily due to an increase in wages
and equipment repairs during the period. Selling general and administrative
expenses decreased $1,347,204 or 55 percent from $2,443,546 for the period ended
March 31, 2002, to $1,096,342 in 2003. This is primarily due to the recording of
$2,698,449 in non-cash compensation related to the issuance of the Company's
common stock to financial consultants in the third quarter of 2002, as compared
with $200,000 in non-cash compensation recorded for the corresponding period of
2003. Other selling, general and administrative expenses increased, from $96,950
to $896,342, reflecting an increase in travel, professional fees, marketing and
Communications; encompassing brand awareness, positioning, aggregation of
content, research analysis, design and functionality of website and collateral
material.

Interest expense increased from $20,441 in the period ended March 31, 2002 to
$182,062 in comparable period of 2003, which is due to the additional $4,128,000
in debt financing added during 2002.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2002, Nathaniel Energy has outstanding notes payable of
$4,095,470, including installment notes with financial institutions secured by
equipment totaling $654,000, with an average interest rate of 11.1%. The
remaining $4,196,000 in outstanding notes consist of secured and unsecured term
loans from individuals with an average interest rate of 12.1%. Of this amount,
$247,000 is due immediately since the notes are past their scheduled due dates.
The remaining $3,950,000 is to be repaid in varying installments in 2003.
