                              EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

leases and seismic options covering approximately 61,000 acres of land located
in the Paradox Basin in San Juan County, Utah, together with associated seismic
data, maps and other related proprietary information.

      B. Effective as of even date herewith, Lenders and Borrower have entered
into a certain farmout agreement, whereby the Lenders will earn an aggregate 50%
of Borrower's interests in and to such leases and seismic options (to the extent
such seismic options have not been exercised by the date on which such interests
are assigned) by completing, processing and interpreting a three-dimensional
seismic survey of up to 50 square miles covered by the above referenced oil and
gas leases and seismic options (the "Farmout Agreement").

      C. Effective as of even date herewith, Lenders have entered into a certain
Seismic Acquisition Agreement (the "Seismic Agreement") for purposes of
performing their obligations under the Farmout Agreement.

      D.    Borrower  needs  certain  financial  resources for general
corporate purposes. Lenders are willing to provide such financial resources,
upon the terms, provisions and conditions set forth below.

                                    AGREEMENT

      FOR VALUABLE CONSIDERATION, including, without limitation, the mutual
promises, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement, Lenders and
Borrower, each intending to be legally bound, covenant and agree as follows:

<PAGE>

            1.0 CREDIT FACILITY. Subject to the terms, provisions and conditions
contained in this Agreement, Lenders shall make available for Borrower's use
from time to time, a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount
not to exceed, at any time, the sum of $100,000.00 (the "Credit"); provided,
however, that the amount of the Credit available for borrowing by Borrower shall
be reduced, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, by the amount of capital in excess of
$100,000.00 raised by Borrower during the one year period commencing on the
Effective Date of this Agreement, from private investors and/or private
placements (collectively, "Privately Raised Funds"). For example, if Borrower
does not raise $100,000.00 in Privately Raised Funds during such one-year
period, the entire amount of the Credit will be available for borrowing by
Borrower and if Borrower raises $200,000.00 in Privately Raised Funds during
such one-year period, then Borrower shall not be entitled to draw any Advances
under the Credit, exclusive of Advances previously drawn.

            1.1 MANNER OF BORROWING. Borrower may request one or more advances
("Advance" or "Advances") under the Credit by notifying Lenders of the amount of
the requested Advance and the aggregate amount of the Advances then outstanding
under the Credit. Upon receipt of such notification and if all other conditions
to borrowing have been satisfied, Lenders shall deliver the amount of the
Advance to Borrower, or otherwise as directed by Borrower, within two business
days.

            1.2 ADVANCES TO CONSTITUTE ONE LOAN. All Advances by Lenders to
Borrower under this Agreement shall constitute one loan and all indebtedness and
obligations of Borrower to Lenders under this Agreement shall constitute one
general obligation.

            1.3 PROMISSORY NOTE. The aggregate amount of Advances under the
Credit shall be evidenced by a promissory note, in the form attached hereto as
EXHIBIT A, dated of even date herewith (the "Note"), executed and delivered by
Borrower, payable to the order of Lenders, in the maximum principal amount
referenced in Section 1.0 of this Agreement, bearing interest at the rate of 8%
per annum. Notwithstanding the principal amount stated on the face of the Note,
the amount of principal actually owing on the Note at any given time shall be
the aggregate amount of all Advances made to Borrower then outstanding under the
Credit.

            1.4 PAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST. The aggregate amount of all
principal Advances made under the Credit, as evidenced by the Note, together
with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable in full
at Maturity (as defined in Section 1.5 below).

            1.5 MATURITY OF CREDIT. All Advances made under the Credit, as
evidenced by the Note, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon,
shall be due and payable on the later of (i) the date which is twelve (12)
months after the Effective

                                       2

<PAGE>

Date, and (ii) the date on which the Seismic Agreement terminates ("Maturity").
The Credit shall automatically terminate at Maturity, without notice, and
Lenders shall not have any further obligation to advance funds to Borrower under
the Credit. Lenders shall not have any obligation to renew the Credit
established hereby.

            1.6 NO  PREPAYMENT  PENALTY.  Borrower  may  prepay  all or any
portion of the Credit at any time prior to maturity, without premium or penalty.
Any such prepayment shall be applied first to accrued interest and then to
reduction of principal.

            1.7 NO USURY. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
this Agreement and/or the Note, Lenders shall never be deemed to have contracted
for or be entitled to receive, collect or apply as interest under this Agreement
and/or the Note, any amount in excess of the maximum amount of interest
permitted under applicable law, and in the event Lenders ever receive, collect
or apply as interest any amount in excess of the maximum amount permitted by
applicable law, such amount that would be excessive interest shall be applied to
the reduction of the unpaid principal balance of the indebtedness hereunder, as
evidenced by the Note, or if the principal balance is paid in full, any
remaining excess shall be returned to Borrower.

      2.0  AFFIRMATIVE   COVENANTS.   Until  payment  in  full  of  the  Note
and all the obligations of Borrower hereunder and under the Credit, Borrower
shall fulfill the covenants set forth below:
