NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The financial information included herein is unaudited; however, such
information reflects all adjustments (consisting soley of normal recurring
adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
presentation of financial position, results of operation and cash flows for
the interim periods.
The results of operations for the six month period ending June 30, 1996 are
not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
NOTE 2: INCOME TAXES
No provision for income taxes has been recorded due to net operating losses.
The Company has net operating loss carryforwards of approximately
$15,800,000 which may be applied against future taxable income expiring in
various years beginning in 1999 through 2010.
NOTE 3; RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
During 1985, the Company borrowed approximately $6,000,000 from Joseph
Associates, Inc. [JA] in order to fund the reorganization plan approved by
the bankruptcy court. The loan is secured by basically all of the assets of
the Company, including interests in oil and gas wells. The original term of
the loan was for 60 months with the principal and interest payments due the
first day of each month beginning October 1, 1985. Almost from the beginning,
the Company has been in default with respect to payments due on this loan.
In 1989 JA exercised its right under the loan agreement to receive directly
from purchasers all proceeds derived from the sale of oil and gas by the
Company. Accordingly, all monies received from oil and gas purchasers were
then deposited into a checking account controlled by JA and transferred as
needed to accounts owned by the Company to cover operating expenditures.
During 1990 the rights of Joseph Associates, Inc. were acquired by Joseph
Associates of Greeley, Inc. and the same procedure is still in effect during
1996. It is presently contemplated that this debt will be restructured, but
the terms of such restructuring have not been determined or agreed to as of
the date hereof.
At June 30, 1996, the unpaid note balance was $5,791,000.00 and the related
Accrued Interest balance was $7,806,694.00.
During the six months ending June 30, 1996, interest in the amount of
$289,548.00 was accrued on the note and charged to expense. Additionally,
the Company has a non-interest bearing payable to Joseph Associates of
Greeley, Inc. in the amount of $156,266.00.
On September 28, 1988, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission
filed a complaint against the Company and its former president for allegedly
manipulating its common stock price and for misleading promotions with
regard to the "Soberz" pill. The Company was also charged with failure to
file required SEC reports. Final judgments and a permanent injunction were
entered against the Company on October 19, 1989. The Company filed a motion
to set aside the judgment which was not granted. Management believes that
the judgment will ultimately be dismissed as they demonstrate their ability
to file currently required SEC filing (see Legal Proceedings No. 1).

UNIOIL
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following is management's discussion and analysis of certain
significant factors which have affected the Company's financial position and
operating results during the periods included in the accompanying condensed
financial statements.
LIQUIDITY and CAPITAL RESOURCES
At June 30, 1996, the issuer was insolvent, in that liabilities
greatly exceed assets. Revenues from operations were insufficient to
discharge liabilities or even pay interest accruing thereon. In such a
financial condition, the issuer cannot raise additional funds to meet such
commitments. Continuation as a going concern is dependent upon the ability
of the issuer to negotiate a settlement to discharge its principal
outstanding liability. The issuer has been able to continue operations only
because Joseph Associates of Greeley, Inc. ("JAGI"), whose secured position
has priority, has been foregoing its right to foreclose upon all the issuer's
assets, but is asserting its right to take direct payment of the proceeds of
production attributable to the issuer's interest in oil and gas properties.
However, during 1993, JAGI commenced a foreclosure action against
the assets of the Company in Laramie County, Wyoming. This action was
commenced by JAGI in part to demonstrate its willingness and ability to
foreclose upon all the issuer's assets and thereby extinguish the claims of
other creditors, as a means of inducing such creditors settle their claims
on a reasonable basis or have them extinguished. As of February 10, 1995,
this action was dismissed and JAGI has taken no further action to foreclose
on its Mortgage or to assert any rights under that Mortgage other than the
rights to take the direct payment of the Company's oil and gas proceeds. As
a result of this action and the fact that the Company was able to obtain a
line of credit with which to make cash offers in settlement of its remaining
judgment liabilities, during 1994 the Company was able to reach settlements
with all judgment creditors. Refer to December 31, 1994 Form 10-KSB for
details.
There are two major areas of indebtedness of the Company. The
principal one is the secured debt owed to JAGI. With the interest that has
been accrued each year, this debt is in excess of 13 million dollars.
Management of the Company and JAGI are attempting to work out some
restructuring of this debt; however, at June 30, 1996 and as of the date
hereof, the debt has not been restructured and remains on the books. The
other secured debt is a $350,000 line of credit from a local bank and a
$350,000 loan. As of June 30, 1996 the Company had used $626,251.00 against
the loan and line of credit and is collateralized by a first lien on the
Company's Colorado oil and gas properties. The Company used approximately
$287,500 of these proceeds to settle outstanding judgment liabilities.
Management intends to use the remaining balance to recommence drilling
activity and reworking existing wells.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Due to its bankruptcy and adverse financial condition the issuer
has not engaged in drilling any new wells or acquiring any additional
properties since 1985. Operations of the issuer have been limited to
continued operation of wells previously drilled on properties already
acquired. The issuer continues to incur net losses due primarily to
interest expenses, except for the year 1994 when the gain from settlements
of judgment liabilities was recognized as an extraordinary item, and
resulted in net income. Management anticipates production can be increased
if sufficient capital can be generated to re-work producing wells.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The issuer had been involved in numerous legal proceedings.
Those legal proceedings have been resolved by the registrant. The following
discussion outlines the current status, to the best knowledge of present
management.
1. On September 28, 1988 the United States Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC") filed a complaint in United States District
Court for the District of Columbia (Civil Action No. 88-2803) naming the
issuer and its former President as defendants. The complaint charged
securities laws violations arising from an alleged attempt to manipulate the
price of the Company's stock by conducting an allegedly false and misleading
publicity campaign during 1986 about a purported company product known as
the "Soberz" pill. The pill allegedly lowered a person's blood-alcohol
level rendering a drunk person sober. The complaint also charged the
defendants with violating securities laws by failing to file timely and
accurate periodic reports as required. On October 19, 1989 the SEC obtained
by default final judgments of permanent injunction enjoining the defendants
from violating the securities laws by failing to file such reports, or
violating the anti-fraud provisions of the securities laws.
In October, 1990, after filing the Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 1989 (which report included financial and
other information covering the intervening period since reports had last
been filed), the issuer made a motion to have the injunction against itself
Set aside. By order dated January 8, 1991 the U.S. District Court of the
District of Columbia denied the issuer's motion without prejudice "pending
demonstration of Unioil's ability and willingness to comply with filing
requirements in the future over a reasonable period of time." The issuer
intends to renew its motion to set aside the judgment sometime in the future
after it has complied with the filing requirements over a reasonable period
of time. Current management believes that such motion will be granted at
that time.
The legal proceedings regarding the "Soberz" pill were filed
against the issuer and its former President by the SEC in response to
certain meetings held with stockbrokers and others to promote such pill, two
press releases which made certain claims regarding the pill, and a statement
concerning the pill which was included in the issuer's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 1985, which was filed on or about
August 6, 1986. In addition to making the claims about such pill which
resulted in the SEC action, the statement in the Form 10-K report indicated
that the issuer agreed to acquire Guardian Laboratories, Inc., the company
which supposedly had rights to the pill in the form of a patent pending. The
statement further indicated that the issuer agreed to issue 500,000 shares
of its stock in consideration thereof. Successor management of the issuer
has determined from the transfer records that such stock was in fact issued,
but can find no evidence that the issuer ever received anything in
consideration of such issuance. The Board of Directors has therefore
decided to treat such stock as cancellable for lack of consideration and
has placed stop transfer orders with the transfer agent to prevent any
attempted transfer of such stock. The issuer also notified the recipient of
the action taken and instructed him to return the certificate for
cancellation. The issuer received a response which disputed the issuer's
position, but no further action has been taken by either party in regard to
the matter.

Item 2. Changes in Securities
No changes in securities occurred in the second quarter of 1996
covered by this report.
Item 3. Defaults upon Senior Securities
All of the issuer's liabilities are classified as current because
they mature currently or are already past due. The issuer is in default
with respect to its principal outstanding liability. This liability is the
secured indebtedness to Joseph Associates of Greeley, Inc. This item,
including accrued interest, comprise approximately 95% of the issuer's total
liabilities. In its present financial condition, the issuer is not able to
pay off this liability or even pay interest which accrues thereon.
Management is therefore attempting to negotiate some restructuring of the
secured indebtedness as a means of curing such default. There is no
assurance management will be able to do this.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
No matter was submitted to a vote of security holders through
the solicitation of proxies or otherwise during the second quarter of 1996
covered by this report. The last meeting of stockholders of Unioil was held
in July, 1983.
Item 5. Other Information
None
Item 6. Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K
