ITEM 2.  ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS

         On June 30, 2003, Oceanic Exploration Company ("Oceanic") sold the
assets comprising its Alliance Staffing Division, dba Alliance Employment
Solutions ("Alliance") to Cordillera Corporation ("Cordillera"). The assets sold
include all furniture and equipment used by Alliance as well as Alliance's
accounts receivable, customer contracts, trade name and other intangibles. At
the closing, Cordillera paid approximately $495,000 in cash for the purchase of
Alliance, valued at the net book value of Alliance at the close of business on
June 30, 2003. Cordillera is obligated to pay additional amounts to Oceanic
calculated as 25% of Alliance's cumulative after-tax earnings through the period
ending June 30, 2005. A combined federal and state income tax rate of 40% is
assumed for the after-tax calculation.

         Cordillera is a related company having some common elements of control
with Oceanic. Cordillera is principally owned by Tenaya Corporation which is
controlled by Mr. James Neal Blue. Mr. Blue also serves as chairman of the Board
of Directors and as president of Cordillera. In addition, Mr. Blue serves as
chairman of the Board of Directors of Oceanic and is an "interested director"
with respect to the sale of assets from Oceanic to Cordillera. Other Oceanic
Board members who may be deemed to be "interested directors" due to their
relationships with Mr. Blue and Mr. Blue's affiliates are Mr. Charles N. Haas
and Dr. John L. Redmond.

         The sale was approved at a special meeting of the Board of Directors of
Oceanic on June 16, 2003. All of Oceanic's directors who are not "interested
directors" approved the sale after a review of the ongoing financial losses of
Alliance and its negative impact on Oceanic's cash flow.

         A copy of the Agreement of Purchase and Sale of Assets is attached
hereto as Exhibit 1.

ITEM 7.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND EXHIBITS

(a)      Financial Statements

         Not applicable

(b)      Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information.

The following pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31,
2003, and the pro forma condensed consolidated statements of income for the
three-month period then ended and the year ended December 31, 2002 give effect
to the sale of Oceanic's Alliance division. The adjustments related to the pro
forma condensed consolidated balance sheet assume the transaction was
consummated at March 31, 2003, while the adjustments to the pro forma condensed
consolidated statements of income assume the transaction was consummated at the
beginning of the periods presented. The actual sale occurred on June 30, 2003
for a value equal to the net book value of the assets of the division.

The pro forma information is based on the historical financial statements of
Oceanic of which the balance sheet as of March 31, 2003 and the statement of
income for the three-month period ending March 31, 2003 have not previously been
restated to separately present Alliance as a discontinued operation. The
statement of income for the year ending December 31, 2002 has not previously
been restated as well.

These pro forma statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that
actually would have occurred if the sale had been in effect as of and for the
periods presented or what may be achieved in the future.
