Note 1
- ----------------------------------
An involuntary petition of bankruptcy was filed against Venus Exploration,
Inc on October 9, 2002 and Venus' response to such petition was filed October
31, 2002. Venus subsequently filed a "Notice of Consent to Entry of Order of
Relief" on February 26, 2003. On February 27, 2003 the Court entered an order
for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code.
Note 2
- ----------------------------------
Venus maintains it books and accounting records on the accrual method of
accounting, and accordingly recognizes income in the month oil and gas is
produced. The income is not reported to Venus and payment is not received for
two months after production. As of the date of this report, the production for
October was not known. We, therefore, accrued an estimated amount of income
based on historical production. Also, all expense amounts for well operations
were not available at the time of this report and certain estimates were made.
The difference between the year to date accrual for the MOR and the year to
date actual is an adjustment to retained earnings.
Note 3
- ----------------------------------
In accordance with an Order Granting Venus Exploration Inc.'s Motion to
Obtain Unsecured Credit Allowable as an Administration Expense Pursuant to 11
USC 364(b), Venus obtained a loan of $125,000 to purchase Directors' and

the Note Payable is shown on Line 19, and accrued interest payable is included
on Line 22. Accrued interest expense is shown on Line 18 of the Income
Statement.
Payment of principal and interest on the note is subject to subordination
in accordance with the above referenced Order.

Note: Effective July 1, 2003, Frost Bank began charging the default rate of
interest of 11 % on the loan balance of 1,500,000 rather than the normal rate of
6.25%. Currently a restricted cash balance of 1,944,099.92 is on deposit at
Frost bank. (Sch 15) On August 21, 2003 a hearing was held to determine to whom
the restricted cash should be paid. It is the Company's position this cash will
be paid to Frost Bank as payment on the loan balance; however, the Court has not
yet rendered an opinion. The Company is accruing interest expense based on the
11% rate, and making payments based on the 6.25% rate.
