                  Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1.   The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
     prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
     interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB
     and Item 310 (b) of Regulation S-B. Accordingly, they do not include all
     of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
     accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion
     of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring
     accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
     included. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 1998 are
     not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
     year ended December 31, 1998. For further information, refer to the
     company's consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto for the
     year ended December 31, 1997, included in Form 10-KSB.

2.   The Company has issued fully paid 25% working interests in five wells in
     the Swan Creek Field to a Director which were paid for in part by
     crediting the Director $360,000 for placement fees in connection with
     private placements of the Company's common stock which occurred during
     the fourth quarter of 1997 and the first quarter of 1998. If, however, it
     is determined that a well(s) at the time of completion of the drilling is
     not economically feasible and as such is subsequently plugged and
     abandoned, the Director has 30 days, after written notice from the
     Company, to convert amounts paid for that well(s) to restricted shares of
     the Company's common stock at 70% of its then current market value. To
     date, four of the five wells in which the Director has a participation
     interest are producing, therefore his options for these wells are not
     exercisable. If the option to convert the fifth well interest to the
     Company's common stock should become exercisable, the Company will
     recognize a charge to compensation expense for the difference between the
     market value of the stock on the date the option is exercisable and the
     amount paid by the Director for the working interest in that well.

3.   On December 18, 1997, the Company entered into an asset purchase
     agreement in which certain producing oil and gas properties located in
     the state of Kansas were acquired from A.F.G. Energy, Inc.("AFG"). The
     agreement, which was effective as of December 31, 1997, closed on March
     5, 1998. The Company paid $2,990,253 in cash and entered into a note
     payable agreement with AFG in the amount of $2,500,000. The note will
     accrue interest at 9% per annum and is due in 23 monthly installments of
     principal and interest of $79,500 with a balloon payment of $983,773 due
     in February, 2000. The total note balance due at June 30, 1998 is
     $2,246,500 with a current portion payable of $781,062 and a long term
     amount of $1,465,436.
