NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis of Presentation:
In the opinion of Chieftain International Funding Corp. ("Funding Corp."),
the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments
(consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present
fairly the financial position as at June 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998 and
the results of operations and changes in financial position for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998. Certain information and notes normally
included in Funding Corp.'s financial statements prepared in accordance with
Canadian generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or
omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the financial statements and the notes thereto included in Funding Corp.'s
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998.
Preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make informed judgements and
estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
The results of operations and changes in financial position for the six
month period ended June 30, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the
results to be expected for the full year.
2. Preferred Shares:
The Articles of Funding Corp. authorize the issuance of a maximum of
10,000,000 preferred shares with a par value of $1.00 each.
In 1992, Funding Corp. sold 2,726,700 shares of $1.8125 convertible
redeemable preferred stock at $25.00 per share through an underwritten
public offering in the United States. Proceeds of the issuance of preferred
shares, net of offering costs of $4.7 million, were $63.4 million.
3. Income Taxes:
Funding Corp. follows the tax allocation method of accounting for the tax
effect of all timing differences between taxable income and accounting
income.
Funding Corp. and its parent file their corporate income tax return on a
consolidated basis. As a result, the current taxes payable will be offset
by utilization of the parent company's operating loss.
The tax benefit relating to loss utilization has been deducted from the
amount owing by the parent company.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Chieftain International Funding Corp., a special purpose subsidiary of
Chieftain International (U.S.) Inc., was formed in 1992 for the primary purpose
of financing the U.S. business operations of its parent.
Analysis of Operating Results - Six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998
Funding Corp.'s income is derived from dividends on preferred shares and
interest on short-term notes, all of which are issued by its parent company,
Chieftain International (U.S.) Inc.
Dividends received on 3,140,000 redeemable Class B preferred shares amounted to
$2,845,625 for each of the first six months of 1999 and 1998.
Interest earned on short-term notes for the first six months of 1999 was
$97,359, a 2% decrease from the amount earned in the comparable 1998 period.
Such decrease resulted from a 15% decrease in average investment yield and a
17% increase in the average amount invested compared to the 1998 first six
months. Future dividend income is expected to remain constant while interest
income should increase, subject to rate fluctuations, reflecting increases in
short-term investment amounts.
General and administrative expenses decreased significantly due to
non-recurring professional fees incurred in the first quarter of 1998 in
respect of regulatory matters.
Income taxes are calculated on interest income less general and administrative
costs. Dividends received from the parent are tax exempt.
Capital Resources and Liquidity
Funding Corp. is dependent upon the dividend income from its investment in
preferred shares of its parent company to provide funds for payment of
dividends on its publicly-held preferred shares.
Funds provided from operations increased to $415,435 for the first six months
of 1999 compared with $347,341 for the 1998 comparable period. Funds not
required for current working capital were invested in short-term notes issued
and payable by the parent company.
Cash balances at June 30, 1999 and 1998 were $62,634 and $99,507, respectively.
Year 2000 Disclosure
All internal computer related services are performed by Chieftain International,
Inc., the ultimate parent of the Company, which has informed us that it is
confident that such services should continue to be provided after Year 2000
subject to further assurances sought from third parties. The Company's
assessment of third parties' readiness was substantially completed by June 30,
1999. The Company continues to monitor the readiness of significant third
parties in order to obtain assurances that interruptions, if any, will be held
to a minimum. The Company is
8

confident that any Year 2000 related computer problems are not
likely to result in any material loss of revenue. Related costs are not
expected to be material.
