                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (unaudited)

NOTE 1 - ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

      The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions to interim financial reporting as
prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission. All adjustments, which, in
the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results
for the interim periods have been reflected in the accompanying unaudited
financial statements. For further information regarding accounting policies,
refer to the Company's audited financial statements for the years ended December
31, 1994 and 1995 included in its 1995 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB. The average
number of shares outstanding reflected in the net loss per share of common stock
for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 gives effect to the 1995 Stock
Compensation Plan (the "1995 Plan"), which provided for the issuance of shares
of common stock to certain employees and consultants whose cash compensation was
reduced by 30% effective April 1, 1995.

NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN UNCERTAINTY AND MANAGEMENT PLANS:

      The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared
assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has
suffered recurring operating losses and cash flow and working capital deficits
that raise substantial doubt about its ability to meet its current and future
expenditure obligations necessary to fully evaluate and develop its oil and gas
properties and to continue as a going concern. In this regard, management has
entered into the Financing Arrangements (as described in Note 3 below) in order
to meet its current working capital requirements and to fully pursue new
exploration opportunities in accordance with its business plan.

NOTE 3 - FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS:

      RIMCO FINANCING. In September 1996, the Company and its wholly-owned
operating subsidiary Texoil Company ("Subsidiary"), entered into a Note Purchase
Agreement with four limited partnerships of which Resource Investors Management
Company Limited Partnership ("RIMCO") is the controlling general partner (the
"RIMCO Agreement"). Under the RIMCO Agreement, the lenders have agreed to
provide up to $8,000,000 in two separate financings to fund Subsidiary's 3-D
seismic exploration program. In connection with the RIMCO financing, the
Company's Board of Directors expanded the number of directors to seven and
elected Gary J. Milavec, a Vice-President of RIMCO Associates, Inc., RIMCO's
controlling general partner, to fill the vacancy created thereby until the next
annual stockholders' meeting. As of September 30, 1996, Subsidiary has borrowed
$617,165 from the RIMCO lenders which is exchangeable for 771,456 shares of
Common Stock or approximately 19% of outstanding Common Stock. Proceeds were
used to repay $200,000 of indebtedness of the Company to one of its directors,
Joe C. Richardson, Jr., and for $417,165 of 3D seismic costs on the Company's
Raceland Prospect.

      The first financing under the RIMCO Agreement is in the form of Senior
Exchangeable General Obligation Notes issued by the Subsidiary in the maximum
amount of $3,000,000 (the "Exchangeable Notes"). The Company intends that
proceeds from this financing be used primarily to fund remaining 3D seismic
leasehold, drilling and completion costs for Subsidiary's Raceland and Greens
Lake Prospects in Lafourche Parish, Louisiana and Galveston County, Texas,
respectively, on which 3-D seismic data acquisition now is completed. The second
financing is in the form of Senior Secured General Obligation 

                                  Page 6 of 17

Notes (the "Senior Notes") issued by Subsidiary in the maximum amount of
$5,000,000. The Company intends that proceeds from the second financing be used
primarily to fund future leasehold, drilling and completion costs for the Laurel
Grove Prospects in Lafourche Parish, Louisiana, subsequent wells in the Raceland
and Greens Lake Prospects, and up-front land and other costs associated with new
3-D seismic projects.

      Under the RIMCO Agreement, Subsidiary may borrow under the Exchangeable
Notes until September 1, 1997. The Exchangeable Notes will mature September 1,
1999. Amounts advanced under the Exchangeable Notes will accrue interest at a
fixed, annual rate of 10%, with interest payable monthly and all outstanding
principal plus all accrued and unpaid interest due and payable at maturity.
Indebtedness outstanding under the Exchangeable Notes is exchangeable, in whole
or in part, for Common Stock at an initial per share price equal to $.80,
subject to anti-dilution adjustments. Subsidiary can require the RIMCO lenders
to make such an exchange if they have funded at least $2,800,000 and the average
trading price of the Common Stock for any consecutive 20-day trading period is
$3.00 or more. The Company granted the RIMCO lenders certain registration rights
in respect of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exchange of debt under the
Exchangeable Notes.

      After $2,800,000 in principal has been advanced under the Exchangeable
Notes, Subsidiary may borrow under the Senior Notes until September 1, 1999. The
Senior Notes will mature September 1, 2002. Amounts advanced under the Senior
Notes will accrue interest at a fixed, annual rate of 10%, with interest and
principal paid monthly from certain revenues generated by the assets pledged to
RIMCO to secure the notes. Advances under the Senior Notes for future drilling
and completion costs will be contingent upon Subsidiary maintaining an agreed
upon borrowing base. Obligations under the Exchangeable Notes and the Senior
Notes are secured by all of the existing and future oil and gas assets of
Subsidiary, and the Company guarantees Subsidiary's obligations thereunder. In
addition, the RIMCO lenders will receive an assignment of a 1.0% of 8/8ths
overriding royalty interest, proportionately reduced to the interest of
Subsidiary, in all wells drilled and/or completed with proceeds from the Senior
Notes.

      1996 DIRECTOR LOANS. In May 1996, four directors of the Company loaned it
an aggregate $1,100,000. Each loan was made pursuant to a promissory note
bearing interest at an annual rate of 12%, maturing May 6, 1997, and convertible
at the option of the lender into shares of Common Stock at a price of $.80 per
share, subject to anti-dilution adjustments. Each note was guaranteed by
Subsidiary and the guaranty was secured by substantially all of the Subsidiary's
assets. The lenders also were issued warrants exercisable until May 2001 for an
aggregate 1,100,000 shares of Common Stock at $1.3125 per share, subject to
anti-dilution adjustments. The four lenders were T.W. Hoehn, Jr., who loaned
$550,000 and received a warrant exercisable for 550,000 shares; T.W. Hoehn, III,
who loaned $300,000 and received a warrant exercisable for 300,000 shares; Joe
C. Richardson, Jr., Trustee UDT 5-17-91, as amended who loaned $200,000 and
received a warrant exercisable for 200,000 shares; William F. Seagle, who loaned
$50,000 and received a warrant exercisable for 50,000 shares. The lenders were
granted certain registration rights in respect of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon exercise or conversion of the warrants or convertible notes.
Proceeds of the loans were used to fund the Company's share of 3-D seismic
survey costs associated with its exploration projects in progress in Lafourche
Parish, Louisiana and Galveston County, Texas, and for general corporate
purposes. Loan proceeds also were used to pay the March 31, 1996 dividend of
$69,000 on the Company's outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, all of which is
held by lending director Mr. Hoehn, Jr. and his son Robert A. Hoehn, and to
repay the Company's remaining indebtedness of approximately $260,000 to First
Interstate Bank of Texas, N.A. which was guaranteed by Mr. Hoehn, Jr.

                                  Page 7 of 17

      In connection with the RIMCO financing, the $200,000 owed to Joe C.
Richardson, Jr., Trustee, UDT 5-17-91, as amended, was repaid in September 1996.
The notes payable to T.W. Hoehn, Jr., T.W. Hoehn, III, and William F. Seagle,
respectively, were canceled and replaced by Replacement 12% Convertible Notes
dated September 6, 1996 (the "Replacement Notes"), which are convertible into
shares of Common Stock at an initial conversion price of $.80 per share, subject
to anti-dilution adjustments, and which mature upon the earlier to occur of
October 1, 2002 and the date occurring 30 days after the RIMCO debt has been
paid in full or exchanged for Common Stock. Accordingly, the Replacement Notes
have been classified as long term liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated
Balance Sheet as of September 30, 1996. The Replacement Note to each of T.W.
Hoehn, Jr. is in the amount of $550,000, to T.W. Hoehn, III is in the amount of
$300,000, and to William F. Seagle is in the amount of $50,000. Interest on each
of the Replacement Notes accrues at a fixed rate of 12% per annum and monthly
payments of interest are due on the 10th day of each moth. Although no
prepayments of principal are permitted, the Company may require these lenders to
convert the outstanding principal amount under their Replacement Notes into
Common Stock if at least $2,800,000 has been funded by the RIMCO lenders and the
average trading price of the Common Stock for any consecutive 20-day trading
period is $3.00 or more, or the Company requires the RIMCO lenders to exchange
Subsidiary's indebtedness to them for Common Stock. The Company granted certain
registration rights to Messrs. Hoehn, Hoehn and Seagle in respect of shares of
Common Stock into which their Replacement Notes may be converted. As part of the
May 1996 debt restructuring evidenced by the Replacement Notes, the warrants,
registration rights and Subsidiary guaranty issued and granted in May 1996 were
canceled. These lenders and Wells Fargo Bank (Texas), N.A. (f/k/a First
Interstate Bank of Texas, N.A.) released all liens against the assets of the
Company or Subsidiary.

      The Company's performance of obligations under the Replacement Notes are
subordinate to performance of obligations under the RIMCO financings. In this
regard, the Company, with the consent of both holders of all of the Company's
outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, amended the Certificate of Stock
Designation covering the Series A Preferred Stock to provide that the annual
cumulative dividends of $12 per share are payable only if, as and when declared
by the Company's Board of Directors, provided that Board has no obligation to
declare such dividends before October 1, 2002. Accordingly, the obligation for
such dividends has been classified as a long term liability in the accompanying
Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 1996. Before the amendment, such
dividends were payable quarterly.

      OTHER AFFILIATE LOANS. Nine individuals, some of whom are stockholders of
the Company, have made interim debt financing available to the Company for
working capital purposes. All of these loans have been repaid, except those made
by the Company's director, T.W. Hoehn, Jr. from whom the Company has borrowed an
aggregate $1,450,000 at various times since 1993. Of this $1,450,000 in loans,
$400,000 was repaid in June 1994 and $50,000 was repaid in March 1996. The
remaining $1,000,000 now is evidenced by a promissory note which is dated
September 1, 1996, matures upon the earlier to occur of October 1, 2002 and 30
days after the RIMCO debt has been paid in full or exchanged for Common Stock,
accrues interest at a variable rate equal to 2% plus the prime rate announced by
Wells Fargo Bank (Texas), N.A., is payable to the T.W. Hoehn, Jr. and Betty Jo
Hoehn Revocable Trust, and is subordinate to the RIMCO financing. Accordingly,
the principal amount of this promissory note has been classified as a long term
liability in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30,
1996. Monthly interest payments are due on the 10th day of each month and
scheduled quarterly principal payments may be made if certain liquidity
conditions are satisfied and after the first $2,800,000 of the RIMCO loans have
been funded. Unpaid quarterly principal payments are cumulative and amounts in
excess of the scheduled quarterly payments may be paid if the liquidity
conditions are satisfied.

                                  Page 8 of 17



      In June 1996, the Company borrowed $50,000 from Opal Air, Inc., a company
owned by T.W. Hoehn, Jr. This loan is evidenced by a promissory note from the
Company to Opal Air, Inc. dated September 1, 1996, which matures on the same
date and is otherwise subject to substantially the same terms as the Company's
September 1996 $1,000,000 note to the T.W. Hoehn, Jr. and Betty Jo Hoehn
Revocable Trust. Accordingly, the principal amount of this promissory note has
been classified as a long term liability in the accompanying Consolidated
Balance Sheet as of September 30, 1996.

                   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                      CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

      The Company uses the full cost method of accounting for its investment in
oil and gas properties. Under the full cost method, all costs of acquisition,
exploration and development of oil and natural gas reserves are capitalized into
a "full cost pool" for each cost center (generally defined as a country). Oil
and gas properties in the pool are depleted and charged to operations using the
unit of production method based on the ratio of current production to total
proved recoverable oil and natural gas reserves. Under the full cost method, to
the extent that capitalized costs (net of depreciation, depletion and
amortization) exceed the future net revenues of estimated proved oil and natural
gas reserves on an after-tax basis, such excess costs are charged to operations
as additional depreciation, depletion and amortization expense. Certain costs
associated with the acquisition and evaluation of unproved properties may,
however, be excluded from amortization until it is determined whether or not
proved reserves can be assigned to the properties.

      At September 30, 1996, the Company's estimated discounted future net
revenues from estimated proved reserves on an after-tax basis approximate the
net capitalized costs in the Company's full cost pool. So long as this condition
continues, any excess of the company's full cost pool over the discounted future
net revenues from proved reserves on an after-tax basis may result in charges to
the Company's operations. Such excesses could result from writedowns of proved
reserve quantities or declines in oil and gas prices. Certain events and
conditions that may cause such charges cannot be reasonably predicted by the
Company. Once incurred, a writedown of oil and gas properties cannot be reversed
at a later date even if reserve quantities are subsequently increased or oil and
gas prices subsequently rise.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS
 AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996

      The Company recorded net losses of $300,214 and $294,812 in the three
months ended September 30, 1995 and 1996, respectively. Such amounts are
included in net losses of $795,250 and $638,206 in the nine month periods ended
September 30, 1995 and 1996, respectively. The reductions in these comparative
net losses resulted from the following factors:

                                 Page 10 of 17

      The increase in oil and gas production income in the three month period
ended September 30, 1996 is primarily attributable to a decrease in lease
operating expenses effected by the shutting-in of the S.L. 12789 No.1 and the
S.L. 12503 No.1 in the Main Pass Block 3 field and by having plugged and
abandoned the Murrell No.1 in the Dorcyville field. Both of these are among the
areas where the Company's lease operating expenses are high. The $9,252 decrease
in oil and gas production income for the nine month periods ended September 30,
1996 is primarily attributable to the decrease in production volumes occurring
primarily in the Main Pass Block 3 field and at the non-operated S.W. Lake Beouf
field, where natural decline in the Ariel No. 1 well production is taking
effect. The production tax increases in the three and nine months periods ended
September 30, 1996, are due to the reinstatement of taxes, as provided for in
Act No. 2 of Louisiana statutory taxation, after the Ariel No. 1 well achieved
payout.

      The decreases in depreciation, depletion and amortization ("DD&A") expense
were due to the decreases in oil and gas production volumes largely resulting
from the shutting-in of the Main Pass Block 3 field wells. Partially offsetting
the effect of lower production volumes were increases in the Company's DD&A
rates from $8.37 per barrel of oil equivalent ("BOE") in the three months and
nine months ended September 30, 1995 to $10.90 per BOE in the three months and
nine months periods ended September 30, 1996. The increased DD&A rates in 1996
reflect relatively higher cost additions associated with a dry hole drilled on
the Company's Buras Landing Prospect in the second and third quarters of 1995
and workover costs on the S.L. 12503 No.1 in the Main Pass Block 3 field.

      The increase in net general and administrative expenses for the three
months period ended September 30, 1996, is primarily due to non-recurring legal
expenses of $73,827 attributed to the termination of merger negotiations with
Fortune Petroleum in July, 1996 and financing that Company received from the
"May" Notes and the Senior Secured Convertible General Obligation Notes. The
decrease in net general and administrative expenses for the nine months period
ended September 30, 1996, is comprised primarily of (i) salary reductions due to
a reduction in the number of employees subsequent to March 31, 1995, (ii) the
30% salary reductions implemented with the 1995 Stock Compensation Plan
effective April 1, 1995 and (iii) $64,000 of overhead reimbursement paid to the
Company during the first half of 1996 by its partners in the Raceland Prospect.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

      GOING CONCERN UNCERTAINTY AND MANAGEMENT'S PLANS. The Company has suffered
recurring operating losses and cash flow and working capital deficits that raise
substantial doubt about its ability to meet its current and future expenditure
obligations necessary to fully evaluate and develop its oil and gas properties
and to continue as a going concern. In this regard, Management has entered into
the financing arrangements (as described in CASH FLOW FROM FINANCING below) in
order to meet its current capital requirements and to fully pursue new
exploration opportunities in accordance with its business plan.

      CASH FLOW FROM OPERATIONS. Texoil's net cash flow from operations resulted
in a cash surplus of $186,655 and $917,405 for the nine month periods ended
September 30, 1995 and 1996, respectively. The change in the Company's operating
cash flow in the first nine months of 1996 is primarily due to a reduction in
net loss due to a reduction in net general and administrative expenses and also
to a decrease in the Company's long-term liabilities when the bank loan was
repaid. Lease operating expenses were also lower in 1996. These improvements
were partially offset by lower oil and gas sales in 1996.

                                 Page 11 of 17

      CASH FLOW FROM FINANCING
RIMCO FINANCING
      In September 1996, the Company and its wholly-owned operating subsidiary
Texoil Company ("Subsidiary"), entered into a Note Purchase Agreement with four
limited partnerships of which Resource Investors Management Company Limited
Partnership ("RIMCO") is the controlling general partner (the "RIMCO
Agreement"). Under the RIMCO Agreement, the lenders have agreed to provide up to
$8,000,000 in two separate financings to fund Subsidiary's 3-D seismic
exploration program. In connection with the RIMCO financing, the Company's Board
of Directors expanded the number of directors to seven and elected Gary J.
Milavec, a Vice-President of RIMCO Associates, Inc., RIMCO's controlling general
partner, to fill the vacancy created thereby until the next annual stockholders'
meeting. As of September 30, 1996, Subsidiary has borrowed $617,165 from the
RIMCO lenders which is exchangeable for 771,456 shares of Common Stock or
approximately 19% of outstanding Common Stock. Proceeds were used to repay
$200,000 of indebtedness of the Company to one of its directors, Joe C.
Richardson, Jr., and for $417,165 3D seismic costs on the Company's Raceland
Prospect.

      The first financing under the RIMCO Agreement is in the form of Senior
Exchangeable General Obligation Notes issued by the Subsidiary in the maximum
amount of $3,000,000 (the "Exchangeable Notes"). The Company intends that
proceeds from this financing be used primarily to fund remaining 3D seismic
leasehold, drilling and completion costs for Subsidiary's Raceland and Greens
Lake Prospects in Lafourche Parish, Louisiana and Galveston County, Texas,
respectively, on which 3-D seismic data acquisition now is completed. The second
financing is in the form of Senior Secured General Obligation Notes (the "Senior
Notes") issued by Subsidiary in the maximum amount of $5,000,000. The Company
intends that proceeds from the second financing be used primarily to fund future
leasehold, drilling and completion costs for the Laurel Grove Prospects in
Lafourche Parish, Louisiana, subsequent wells in the Raceland and Greens Lake
Prospects, and up-front land and other costs associated with new 3-D seismic
projects.

      Under the RIMCO Agreement, Subsidiary may borrow under the Exchangeable
Notes until September 1, 1997. The Exchangeable Notes will mature September 1,
1999. Amounts advanced under the Exchangeable Notes will accrue interest at a
fixed, annual rate of 10%, with interest payable monthly and all outstanding
principal plus all accrued and unpaid interest due and payable at maturity.
Indebtedness outstanding under the Exchangeable Notes is exchangeable, in whole
or in part, for Common Stock at an initial per share price equal to $.80,
subject to anti-dilution adjustments. Subsidiary can require the RIMCO lenders
to make such an exchange if they have funded at least $2,800,000 and the average
trading price of the Common Stock for any consecutive 20-day trading period is
$3.00 or more. The Company granted the RIMCO lenders certain registration rights
in respect of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exchange of debt under the
Exchangeable Notes.

      After $2,800,000 in principal has been advanced under the Exchangeable
Notes, Subsidiary may borrow under the Senior Notes until September 1, 1999. The
Senior Notes will mature September 1, 2002. Amounts advanced under the Senior
Notes will accrue interest at a fixed, annual rate of 10%, with interest and
principal paid monthly from certain revenues generated by the assets pledged to
RIMCO to secure the notes. Advances under the Senior Notes for future drilling
and completion costs will be contingent upon Subsidiary maintaining an agreed
upon borrowing base. Obligations under the Exchangeable Notes and the Senior
Notes are secured by all of the existing and future oil and gas assets of
Subsidiary, and the Company guarantees Subsidiary's obligations thereunder. In
addition, the RIMCO lenders will receive an assignment of a 1.0% of 8/8ths
overriding royalty interest, proportionately reduced to the interest of
Subsidiary, in all wells drilled and/or completed with proceeds from the Senior
Notes.

1996 DIRECTOR LOANS
      In May 1996, four directors of the Company loaned it an aggregate
$1,100,000. Each loan was made pursuant to a promissory note bearing interest at
an annual rate of 12%, maturing May 6, 1997, and convertible at the option of
the lender into shares of Common Stock at a price of $.80 per share, subject to
anti-dilution adjustments. Each note was guaranteed by Subsidiary and the
guaranty was secured by substantially all of the Subsidiary's assets. The
lenders also were issued warrants exercisable until May 2001 for an aggregate
1,100,000 shares of Common Stock at $1.3125 per share, subject to anti-dilution
adjustments. The four lender were T.W. Hoehn, Jr., who loaned $550,000 and
received a warrant exercisable for 550,000 shares; T.W. Hoehn, III, who loaned
$300,000 and received a warrant exercisable for 300,000 shares; Joe C.
Richardson, Jr., Trustee UDT 5-17-91, as amended who loaned $200,000 and
received a warrant exercisable for 200,000 shares; William F. Seagle, who loaned
$50,000 and received a warrant exercisable for 50,000 shares. The lenders were
granted certain registration rights in respect of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon exercise or conversion of the warrants or convertible notes.
Proceeds of the loans were used to fund the Company's share of 3-D seismic
survey costs associated with its exploration projects in progress in Lafourche
Parish, Louisiana and Galveston County, Texas, and for general corporate
purposes. Loan proceeds also were used to pay the March 31, 1996 dividend of
$69,000 on the Company's outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, all of which is
held by lending director Mr. Hoehn, Jr. and his son Robert A. Hoehn, and to
repay the Company's remaining indebtedness of approximately $260,000 to First
Interstate Bank of Texas, N.A. which was guaranteed by Mr. Hoehn, Jr.

      In connection with the RIMCO financing, the $200,000 owed to Joe C.
Richardson, Jr., Trustee, UDT 5-17-91, as amended, was repaid in September 1996.
The notes payable to T.W. Hoehn, Jr., T.W. Hoehn, III, and William F. Seagle,
respectively, were canceled and replaced by Replacement 12% Convertible Notes
dated September 6, 1996 (the "Replacement Notes"), which are convertible into
shares of Common Stock at an initial conversion price of $.80 per share, subject
to anti-dilution adjustments, and which mature upon the earlier to occur of
October 1, 2002 and the date occurring 30 days after the RIMCO debt has been
paid in full or exchanged for Common Stock. The Replacement Note to each of T.W.
Hoehn, Jr. is in the amount of $550,000, to T.W. Hoehn, III is in the amount of
$300,000, and to William F. Seagle is in the amount of $50,000. Interest on each
of the Replacement Notes accrues at a fixed rate of 12% per annum and monthly
payments of interest are due on the 10th day of each moth. Although no
prepayments of principal are permitted, the Company may require these lenders to
convert the outstanding principal amount under their Replacement Notes into
Common Stock if at least $2,800,000 has been funded by the RIMCO lenders and the
average trading price of the Common Stock for any consecutive 20-day trading
period is $3.00 or more, or the Company requires the RIMCO lenders to exchange
Subsidiary's indebtedness to them for Common Stock. The Company granted certain
registration rights to Messrs. Hoehn, Hoehn and Seagle in respect of shares of
Common Stock into which their Replacement Notes may be converted. As part of May
1996 debt restructuring evidenced by the Replacement Notes, the warrants,
registration rights and Subsidiary guaranty issued and granted in May 1996 were
canceled. These lenders and Wells Fargo Bank (Texas), N.A. (f/k/a First
Interstate Bank of Texas, N.A.) released all liens against the assets of the
Company or Subsidiary.

      The Company's performance of obligations under the Replacement Notes are
subordinate to performance of obligations under the RIMCO financings. In this
regard, the Company, with the consent of both holders of all of the Company's
outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, amended the Certificate of Stock
Designation covering the Series A Preferred Stock to provide that the annual
cumulative dividends of $12 per share are payable only if, as and when declared
by the Company's Board of Directors, provided that Board has no obligation to
declare such dividends before October 1, 2002. Before the amendment, such
dividends were payable quarterly.

                                 Page 13 of 17

OTHER AFFILIATE LOANS
      Nine individuals, some of whom are stockholders of the Company, have made
interim debt financing available to the Company for working capital purposes.
All of these loans have been repaid, except those made by the Company's
director, T.W. Hoehn, Jr. from whom the Company has borrowed an aggregate
$1,450,000 at various times since 1993. Of this $1,450,000 in loans, $400,000
was repaid in June 1994 and $50,000 was repaid in March 1996. The remaining
$1,000,000 now is evidenced by a promissory note which is dated September 1,
1996, matures upon the earlier to occur of October 1, 2002 and 30 days after the
RIMCO debt has been paid in full or exchanged for Common Stock, accrues interest
at a variable rate equal to 2% plus the prime rate announced by Wells Fargo Bank
(Texas), N.A., is payable to the T.W. Hoehn, Jr. and Betty Jo Hoehn Revocable
Trust, and is subordinate to the RIMCO financing. Monthly interest payments are
due on the 10th day of each month and scheduled quarterly principal payments may
be made if certain liquidity conditions are satisfied and after the first
$2,800,000 of the RIMCO loans have been funded. Unpaid quarterly principal
payments are cumulative and amounts in excess of the scheduled quarterly
payments may be paid if the liquidity conditions are satisfied.

      CAPITAL EXPENDITURES. Texoil's net capital expenditures totaled $653,089
and $1,268,988 in the nine month periods ended September 30, 1995 and 1996,
respectively. The latter amount is comprised primarily of leasehold and seismic
acquisition costs totaling $1,033,633, on the Company's operated Raceland 3-D
seismic exploration project in Lafourche Parish, Louisiana. The remaining
$235,355 is in capitalized general and administrative costs and capitalized
workover costs at the Company's Main Pass Block 3 field.

      FUTURE CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS. The Company anticipates making further
capital expenditures during the remainder of 1996 to complete the processing of
3-D seismic data in its Raceland prospect and to acquire leases by exercising
existing lease options on the Company-operated Raceland prospect and the
non-operated Greens Lake prospects, operated by Burlington Resources, and the
non-operated Laurel Grove Prospect, operated by Phillips Petroleum Company. The
Company will continue to evaluate generating or acquiring new prospects and will
continue to evaluate its participation rights related to the December 31, 1992,
agreement with Texas Meridian Resources Corporation ("TMR") in its South
Louisiana 3-D exploration programs. In the event the 3-D seismic interpretations
result in recommendations to drill exploratory well(s), the Company anticipates
making additional capital expenditures to drill the test well(s).

RACELAND 3-D PROSPECT
      The Company owns a 30% working interest in its Raceland 3-D Prospect in
Lafourche Parish, Louisiana. Texoil Company is in the Operator and its working
interest partners include Pogo Producing Company, Southwest Gas Supply (a
subsidiary of MCN Corp), GEDD, Inc., 3DX Technologies, Inc., and Shore Oil
Company. Acquisition of the 3-D seismic data is completed. Data processing is in
progress and final interpretation will follow shortly thereafter. The Company
has begun to make capital expenditures to exercise its right to acquire leases
under existing lease options.

GREENS LAKE 3-D PROSPECT
      The Company owns a 30% working interest in its Greens Lake 3-D Prospect in
Galveston County, Texas. Burlington Resources is the operator and owns 70%
working interest. Acquisition and processing of the 3-D seismic data is
completed. Interpretation of the 3-D seismic data is in progress. Burlington
Resources has begun to exercise its right to acquire leases under existing lease
options and the Company has begun to make capital expenditures by electing to
participate in all lease acquisitions exercised by Burlington Resources.

LAUREL GROVE PROSPECT
      The Company owns a 30% working interest in its Laurel Grove 3-D Prospect
in Lafourche Parish, Louisiana. Phillips Petroleum is the operator and owns a
70% working interest. Permitting for the 3-D survey is nearing completion. It is
anticipated that 3-D operations in the field will commence by year-end 1996.
Under the terms of the sale of the Laurel Grove Prospect, Phillips Petroleum
will pay for 100% of the 3-D seismic survey. The Company will pay for 30% of
leases and drilling costs. The Company has begun to make capital expenditures by
electing to participate in all lease acquisitions exercised to date by Phillips
Petroleum.

TMR AGREEMENT PROSPECTS
      On May 31, 1996, the Company elected to receive a proportionately reduced
2.5% overriding royalty interest ("ORRI") on TMR's new discovery in the East
Cameron 3-D Prospect in Cameron Parish, Louisiana. The discovery well, C.F.
Henry, et al 27 No. 1 achieved a rate of 1,766 barrels of oil per day plus 664
thousand cubic feet of gas per day on an 11/64" choke with a flowing tubing
pressure of 6,452 psig from Abbeville 2 Reservoir. The C.F. Henry, et al 27 No.
2 development well flowed on initial potential test 1,483 barrels of oil per day
plus 385 thousand cubic feet of gas per day on an 11/64" choke with a flowing
tubing pressure of 6,255 psig. TMR has proposed creating a drilling and
production unit for the producing Abbeville 2 Sand which includes a portion of
the acreage on which the Company has participation rights. The Company's
proportional participation rights will be determined after the unit is created
following a hearing before the Commissioner of Conservation of the State of
Louisiana.

        The Company is unable to predict with certainty the capital expenditure
requirements and possible addition of reserves that may result from its
non-operated participation with TMR in the remaining South Louisiana prospects
it sold to TMR in the December 31, 1992 agreement. Under the agreement with TMR
the Company is entitled to receive certain ORRI ranging from 2.0% to 3.75% and
has the option to additionally acquire up to a 10% working interest in wells
drilled subject to the agreement.
