PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
THE FOLLOWING SUMMARY IS QUALIFIED IN ITS ENTIRETY BY THE MORE DETAILED
INFORMATION AND FINANCIAL DATA APPEARING ELSEWHERE IN THIS PROSPECTUS. AN
INVESTMENT IN THE SHARES OFFERED HEREBY INVOLVES A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK.
PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS SHOULD CONSIDER CAREFULLY THE FACTORS IDENTIFIED UNDER THE
HEADING "RISK FACTORS".
THE COMPANY
The Company is in the business of exploring for and developing
oil and natural gas properties. Although the Company has been in existence for
81 years, its activities in the oil and gas business commenced only in 1995 with
the acquisition of numerous oil and gas properties. These properties include the
following:
(i) a 100% working interest in 41 oil and gas leases on a total
of 8,058 acres, more or less, and a 25% working interest on one lease of 462
acres, more or less, located in Clay County, Kentucky (collectively, the "Beech
Creek Leases");
(ii) a 100% working interest in 5 oil and gas leases on a total
of 741 acres, more or less, located in Clay County, Kentucky (collectively, the
"Wildcat Leases");
(iii) a 100% working interest in six oil and gas leases on a
total of 744 acres, more or less, located in Clay County, Kentucky
(collectively, the "Burning Springs Leases");
(iv) a 100% working interest in nine oil and gas leases on a
total of 2,121 acres, more or less, located in Fentress County, Tennessee
(collectively, the "Fentress County Leases").
(v) a 100% working interest in 210 oil and gas leases on a total
of 30,367 acres more or less, located in Hancock and Claiborn Counties,
Tennessee (collectively, the "Swan Creek Leases").
The Beech Creek Leases contain four wells. These four wells have been
tested and management believes they are capable of producing gas in paying
quantities. Flow lines have been laid to connect these wells to the gas
transmission system of Wiser Oil Co. However, the wells are not presently in
production.
The Burning Springs Leases contain a total of 11 gas wells,
all of which are shut-in. Several of the wells were in production in 1996 and
were hooked up to a nearby Southern Gas Company transport line. At present, the
wells are not producing since the compressors and related equipment have been
moved to the
3
<PAGE>
Swan Creek leases where, it is anticipated, the wells will be more profitable.
The Company intends to evaluate the wells that are listed as shut-in for
possible workover or deepening potential. After the evaluation, they will be
either reworked or plugged.
The Fentress County Leases currently have one well, which is shut-in.
The well will require additional work to initiate production.
Substantial additional evaluation and remedial work will be necessary
in order to determine whether most of the Company's wells will be able to
produce oil and gas in paying quantities and to make them produce in such
quantities. The Company's ability to perform these operations will depend to a
great degree on its ability to raise sufficient funding to develop its leases,
as to which no assurance can be given. Nor can any assurance be given that if
the Company is able to obtain such funding, it will be able to produce oil and
gas in profitable quantities.
The Company will conduct exploration and production activities to
produce crude oil and natural gas. The principal markets for these commodities
are local refining companies, major natural gas transmission pipeline companies,
local utilities and private industry end users, which purchase the crude oil,
and natural gas pipeline companies, which purchase the gas. There are currently
two gas transmission lines that run through the Beech Creek Leases. These lines
can be accessed to sell gas produced from the leases. There are two more
transmission lines within approximately two miles of these leases.
In Hancock County, gas production from the Swan Creek Leases will be
delivered into the major transmission line of East Tennessee Natural Gas. At the
present time, there is no completed pipeline from these leases to the East
Tennessee Natural Gas pipeline. The Company is in the process of constructing
such a pipeline which is approximately 70% completed and is expected to be
completed during the last quarter of 1997. The pipeline will be approximately 23
miles long and is made of 8 inch steel pipe. The cost to date has been
approximately $1,500,000. Completion is expected to cost approximately an
additional $700,000. The Company has acquired all necessary regulatory approvals
and 99% of necessary property rights to complete this pipeline. It anticipates
having the remaining property rights within two months. The Company's pipeline
will not only service the Company's wells, but, will provide transportation of
gas for small independent producers in the local area as well. It is anticipated
that direct sales could also be made to some local towns and industries. No
assurance can be given that the Company will be able to produce a sufficient
quantity of crude oil or natural gas to make these operations profitable.
The estimated present net reserve values based upon a
4
<PAGE>
report from Coburn Petroleum Engineering, an independent expert, indicate a
present value of $33,874,577 for the Swan Creek Field, $5,929,992 for the Beech
Creek Leases, $996,280 for the Fentress County Leases and $547,248 for the
Burning Springs Leases. Reserve analyses are at best speculative, especially
when based upon limited production; no assurance can be given that the reserves
attributed to these leases exist or will be economically recoverable.

RISK FACTORS
THE SECURITIES OFFERED HEREBY INVOLVE A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK AND SHOULD
NOT BE PURCHASED BY PERSONS WHO CANNOT AFFORD THE LOSS OF THEIR TOTAL
INVESTMENT. PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS OF THE SHARES OFFERED HEREIN SHOULD GIVE
CAREFUL CONSIDERATION, IN ADDITION TO THE OTHER INFORMATION IN THIS PROSPECTUS,
TO THE FOLLOWING RISK FACTORS.
1. Limited History. Although the Company was organized in 1916, it must
be regarded as being in a formative stage due to its lack of significant
business operations during recent years and the fact that it did not acquire any
oil or gas leases until 1995. Prior to its acquisition of these leases, the
Company had never been involved in the oil and gas business. Its future success
depends upon its ability, to profitably operate its existing wells and to expand
its operations through the acquisition of additional
6
<PAGE>
oil and gas producing properties and/or the acquisition of additional oil and
gas leases. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in
making such acquisitions. If the Company is successful in acquiring additional
leases, it faces the risk that the geology reports on which it relies are
inaccurate, that the oil and/or gas reserves are less than anticipated, that it
will not have sufficient funds to drill on the property, that it will not be
able to market the oil and/or gas due to a lack of a market or the lack of
pipelines, and that fluctuations in the prices of oil and/or gas will make
development of those leases uneconomical. The Company is also subject to all of
the risks inherent in attempting to expand a relatively new business venture.
These risks include, but are not limited to, possible inability to profitably
operate its existing properties or properties to be acquired in the future, the
existence of undisclosed actual or contingent liabilities, the inability to fund
the requirements of such properties and the inability to acquire additional
properties that will have a positive effect on the Company's operations. There
can be no assurance that the Company will achieve a level of profitability that
will provide a return on invested capital or that will result in an increase in
the market value of the Company's securities. See, "Market Price of and
Dividends on the Company's Common Equity and Other Stockholder Matters."
2. Limited Market for Common Stock. Although the Company's common stock
is listed on the OTC Bulletin Board of the National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc. (the "NASD"), the market for such shares only commenced in May,
1995, following the acquisition of the oil and gas leases described above, and
there can be no assurance that it will continue or be maintained. Any market
price for shares of common stock of the Company is likely to be very volatile,
and factors such as success or lack thereof in drilling, the ability or
inability to acquire additional oil and gas producing properties, competition,
governmental regulation and fluctuations in operating results may all have a
significant effect. In addition, the stock markets generally have experienced,
and continue to experience, extreme price and volume fluctuations which have
affected the market price of many small capital companies and which have often
been unrelated to the operating performance of these companies. These broad
market fluctuations, as well as general economic and political conditions, may
adversely affect the market price of the Company's common stock. See,"Market
Price of and Dividends on the Company's Common Equity and Other Stockholder
Matters."
3. General Economic Risks/Potential Volatility of Stock Price. The
Company's current and future business plans are dependent, in large part, on the
state of the general economy. Adverse changes in general and local economic
conditions may cause high volatility in the market price of the Company's
securities and may adversely affect an investment in these securities. Oil and
7
<PAGE>
gas prices are extremely volatile and are subject to substantial seasonal,
political, world wide supply of oil and gas and other fluctuations and risks,
all of which are beyond the Company's control.
4. Future Acquisitions. The Company intends to develop and expand its
business, principally by developing its existing oil and gas leases and
acquiring additional oil and gas-producing properties and/or leases. See,
"Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation" below. The Company
has not selected any particular properties in connection with its expansion
plans and may not be able to locate desirable property and/or it may not be able
to provide the funds necessary to acquire additional property.
5. Future Capital Requirements; Uncertainty of Future Funding. The
Company presently has limited operating capital. It will require substantial
additional funding in order to realize its goals of conducting oil and gas
exploration operations and acquiring additional oil and gas properties. The
Company is currently negotiating with investment banking firms and other
entities to raise these funds through equity or debt financing, which may be
very difficult for such a highly speculative enterprise. There can be no
assurance that such additional funding will be made available to the Company, or
if made available, that the terms thereof will be satisfactory to the Company.
Furthermore, any equity funding will cause a substantial decrease in the
proportional ownership interests of existing stockholders. If such funding is
not made available to the Company, it is doubtful that the Company will be able
to conduct its planned business operations. See "Management's Discussion and
Analysis or Plan of Operation".
6. Replacement of Reserves. The Company's future success will
depend upon its ability to find, acquire and develop additional oil and gas
reserves that are economically recoverable. The proven reserves of the Company
will generally decline as they are produced, except to the extent that the
Company conducts revitalization activities, or acquires properties containing
proven reserves, or both. To increase reserves and production, the Company must
continue its development and drilling programs, identify and produce previously
overlooked or by-passed zones and shut-in wells, acquire additional properties
or undertake other replacement activities. The Company's current strategy is to
increase its reserve base, production and cash flow through the development of
its existing oil and gas fields and selective acquisitions of other promising
properties where the Company can utilize new and existing technology. The
Company can give no assurance that its planned revitalization, development and
acquisition activities will result in significant additional reserves or that
the Company will have success in discovering and producing reserves at
economical exploration and development costs.
8
<PAGE>
The Company may not be able to locate geologically satisfactory property,
particularly since it will be competing for such property with other oil and gas
companies, many of which have much greater financial resources than the Company.
Moreover, even if desirable properties are available to the Company, it may not
have sufficient funds with which to acquire additional leases. Furthermore,
while the Company's revenues may increase if prevailing oil and gas prices
increase significantly, the Company's exploration costs for additional reserves
may also increase.
7. Uncertainty of Reserve Estimates. Oil and gas reserve estimates and
the present value estimates associated therewith are based upon numerous
engineering, geological and operational assumptions that generally are derived
from limited data. Common assumptions include such matters as the extent and
average thickness of a particular reservoir, the average porosity and
permeability of the reservoir, the anticipated future production from existing
and future wells, future development and production costs and the ultimate
hydrocarbon recovery percentage. As a result, oil and gas reserve estimates and
present value estimates are frequently revised in subsequent periods to reflect
production data obtained after the date of the original estimates. If reserve
estimates are inaccurate, production rates may decline more rapidly than
anticipated, and future production and revenues may be less than estimated.
Moreover, significant downward revisions of reserve estimates may adversely
affect the Company's ability to borrow funds in the future or have an adverse
impact on other financing arrangements.
In addition, any estimates of future net revenues and the present value
thereof are based upon period ending prices and on cost assumptions made by the
Company which only represent its best estimate. If these estimates of
quantities, prices and costs prove inaccurate and the Company is unsuccessful in
expanding its oil and gas reserves base, and/or declines in and instability of
oil and gas prices occur, write-downs in the capitalized costs associated with
the Company's oil and gas assets may be required. The Company will also rely to
a substantial degree on reserve estimates in connection with the acquisition of
producing properties. If the Company overestimates the potential oil and gas
reserves of a property to be acquired, or if its subsequent operations on the
property are not successful, the acquisition of the property could result in
substantial losses to the Company. See, "Description of Property".
8. Operating Hazards. Oil and gas operations involve a high degree of
risk. Natural hazards, such as excessive underground pressures, may cause costly
and dangerous blowouts or make further operations on wells financially or
physically impractical. Similarly, the testing and recompletion of oil and gas
wells involves a high degree of risk arising from operational failures, such as
blowouts, fires, pollution, collapsed casing, loss of
9
<PAGE>
equipment and numerous other mechanical and technical problems. Any of the
foregoing hazards may result in substantial losses or liabilities to third
parties, including claims for bodily injuries, reservoir damage, loss of
reserves, environmental damage and other damage to persons or property.
9. Future Sales of Common Stock. Industrial Resources Corporation
("IRC") currently beneficially owns approximately 2,771,671 shares of the common
stock of the Company or approximately 45.3% of its outstanding voting
securities. This amount is based upon 6,124,216 shares being outstanding or
beneficially owned, and assumes the exercise of 497,097 shares vested under
options granted by the Company as of May 31, 1996. Effective June 30, 1997, all
of the shares of the common stock owned by IRC will have been beneficially owned
for two years, and subject to compliance with the applicable provisions of Rule
144 of the Securities and Exchange Commission, IRC may then commence to sell
these "restricted securities" in an amount equal to up to 1% of the then
outstanding securities of the Company, or the average weekly trading volume in
the securities of the Company on any recognized automated system during the four
weeks preceding any Notice of Sale pursuant to Rule 144, in any three month
period, provided the Company satisfies the "current public information
available" requirements of Rule 144 at that time. In such event, such sales
could have a substantial adverse effect on any public market that may then exist
in the Company's common stock. Sales of any of these shares by IRC could
severely affect the ability of the Company to secure the necessary debt or
equity funding for the Company's proposed business operations. For additional
information concerning the present market for shares of common stock of the
Company, see, the caption "Market Price of and Dividends on the Company's Common
Stock and Other Stockholder Matters." For information regarding common stock
ownership of IRC and the Ratliff family, see, "Security Ownership of Certain
Beneficial Owners and Management." The additional 164,266 shares of common stock
of the Company acquired by IRC in exchange for debt of the Company as outlined
under the heading "Business Development" below (76,557 shares were issued in
March, 1996, and 87,709 shares were issued in April, 1996), will have satisfied
the present two year Rule 144 holding period in March and April, 1998,
respectively, and will also then be available for resale pursuant to Rule 144.
A total of 505,000 "unregistered" and "restricted" shares of
the Company's common stock were issued to Jeffrey D. Jenson, M. E. Ratliff and
Leonard W. Burningham, Esq., pursuant to the Compensation Agreements that were
executed on May 2, 1995. Pursuant to Rule 144 of the Commission the shares owned
by Messrs. Jenson and Burningham, who are non-affiliates, may now be sold
without restriction. The shares owned by M. E. Ratliff, who is an affiliate, may
not be sold until the Company is subject to the reporting requirements of
Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Act, as
amended (the "1934 Act").
10
<PAGE>
The resale of these securities may also have a substantial adverse impact on any
then-existing public market for the Company's common stock. See, "Recent Sales
of Unregistered Securities."
The availability of Rule 144 for resales of "restricted securities" by
affiliates is primarily conditioned upon the Company being a "reporting company"
under the 1934 Act, and being current" in all reports required to be filed, or
having "currently publicly available" the type of information usually provided
to broker-dealers effecting transactions in securities of a company as required
by Rule l5c2-1 1 (a)(5) of the Securities and Exchange Commission. If the
Company was not a "reporting company" at the time any holder of "restricted
securities" had held such securities for one year (two years in the case of an
affiliate), this type of information would have had to have been provided to
stockholders of the Company on a periodic basis over the previous two years, and
the Company's balance sheet and income statement at such time should be not less
than six months old. Further, this type of information should also have been
provided to nationally recognized manuals, broker-dealers effecting transactions
in the securities of the Company and newspapers of general circulation, where
possible, in order for the Company to satisfy the requirements of having the
required information "currently publicly available." Simultaneously with the
filing of this Prospectus and the Company's SB-2 Registration Statement for the
Shares offered hereby, the Company is filing a Registration Statement on Form
10SB to become a reporting company. Assuming that Registration Statement becomes
effective, and the Company thereafter files all reports required to be filed by
it with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Company would have the
required information "currently publicly available" concerning it as required by
subparagraph (c)(l) of Rule 144. Shares held by non-affiliates would then be
able to be sold without restriction after a holding period of two years and
could be sold in limited quantities after a holding period of one year.
10. Control by Current Security Holders. The Shares offered hereby
represent a minority of the Company's outstanding voting equity. By virtue of
IRC's present ownership of approximately 45.3% of the Company's outstanding
voting securities, the management of IRC has the ability to effect significantly
the election of the Company's directors, who in turn elect all executive
officers. The management of IRC may be deemed to have substantial control over
the management and affairs of the Company. See, "Security Ownership of Certain
Beneficial Owners and Management." Upon conclusion of this offering IRC's
control will not be diminished.
11. Competition. The Company's oil and gas exploration activities are
centered in a highly competitive field. In seeking any other suitable oil and
gas properties for acquisition, or drilling rig operators and related personnel
and equipment, the Company will be competing with a number of other companies,
11
<PAGE>
including large oil and gas companies and other independent operators with
greater financial resources. Management does not believe that the Company's
initial competitive position in the oil and gas industry will be significant.
See, "Competition."
12. Dependence on Technical Personnel. Certain members of present
management have substantial expertise in the areas of endeavor presently
conducted and to be engaged in by the Company. To the extent that their services
become unavailable, the Company will be required to retain other qualified
personnel. There can be no assurance that it will be able to recruit and hire
qualified persons upon acceptable terms. See, "Directors, Executive Officers,
Promoters and Control Persons."
Similarly, the oil and gas exploration industry requires the use of
personnel with substantial technical expertise. In the event that the services
of its current technical personnel become unavailable, the Company will need to
hire qualified personnel to take their place; no assurance can be given that it
will be able to recruit and hire such persons on mutually acceptable terms.
13. Governmental Regulations. The Company is subject to numerous state
and federal regulations, environmental and otherwise, that may have a
substantial negative effect on its ability to operate at a profit. For a
discussion of the risks involved as a result of such regulations, see, "Effect
of Existing or Probable Governmental Regulations on Business" and "Costs and
Effects of Compliance with Environmental Laws."
14. Market for the Shares. The Company's Common Stock is presently
traded on the OTC Bulletin Board. There can be no assurance that there will be a
market for the Shares or that the price of such stock will be maintained
hereafter. Due to numerous factors the price of the Company's Common Stock may
fluctuate significantly. If the price of the Company's Common Stock trades for
less than $5.00 per share on the OTC Bulletin Board or the National Quotation
Bureau's "pink sheets", the stock will become subject to the Commission's penny
stock disclosure requirements. This may have a substantial adverse affect on the
liquidity of the Company's common stock and, in addition, these regulations
could limit the ability of brokers/dealers to sell the Company's securities and
thus the ability of purchasers of the Company's securities, including the Shares
offered hereby to sell such securities in the secondary market.
15. Dividends Unlikely. The holders of Common Stock of the Company are
entitled to receive dividends when, as and if declared by the Company's Board of
Directors. The Board does not intend to declare any dividends in the foreseeable
future and earning, if any, will be used to finance the requirements of the
Company.
12
<PAGE>
16. Going Concern. The Company's auditors have indicated doubts about
the Company's ability to continue as a going concern in view of the recurring
losses from operations and the Company's working capital deficiency.
USE OF PROCEEDS
The Company will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of
Shares by the Selling Shareholders. All of the proceeds from such sales will be
retained by the Selling Shareholders.
DETERMINATION OF PRICE OF SHARES
The price received by the Selling Shareholders will be determined by

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
Upon the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, the Selling
Shareholders may use this Prospectus, as updated from time to time, to offer the
Shares for sale by the Selling Shareholders directly, or through broker-dealers
or agents as may be designated from time to time by the Selling Shareholders, or
through a combination of such methods. Sales may be effected on the OTC Bulletin
Board or otherwise, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices
related to prevailing market prices, or at negotiated prices. Broker-dealers and
agents will receive compensation in the form of concessions or commissions from
the Selling Shareholders and/or purchasers of the Shares for whom they may act
as agent. Such compensation will be negotiated and paid for by either the
Selling Shareholders and/or purchasers. The Company has not arranged for the
sale of any of the Shares and is not responsible for any concessions or
commissions to be paid in connection with such sales. Each Selling Shareholder
and any brokers or agents that participate in the distribution of the Shares may
be deemed underwriters under the Securities Acts.
The Shares may be sold on the OTC Bulletin Board or in privately
negotiated transactions. Sales of the Shares on the OTC Bulletin Board may be
made by one or more of the following means: (a) block trades in which a
broker-dealer will attempt to sell shares as agent but may position and resell a
portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transactions; (b) purchases
by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by such broker-dealer for its account
pursuant to this Prospectus; (c) ordinary brokerage transactions and transaction
in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers; and (d) any other means
permitted by applicable regulations and laws. In addition, any Shares which
qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Act may be sold under Rule 144
rather than pursuant to this Prospectus.
Upon the Company being notified by a Selling Shareholder that any
material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of
Shares under any circumstances which require the filing of a supplemental
prospectus, a supplemental prospectus will be filed under Rule 424(c) under the
Act setting forth the names of the participating broker-dealers, the number
Shares involved, the price at which such Shares were sold by the Selling
Shareholder, and the commission paid or discounts or concessions
18
<PAGE>
allowed by the Selling Shareholder to such broker-dealers.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Except as described hereafter, the Company is not a party to any
pending material legal proceeding. To the knowledge of management, no federal,
state or local governmental agency is presently contemplating any proceeding
against the Company. To the knowledge of management, no director, executive
officer or affiliate of the Company or owner of record or beneficially of more
than 5% of the Company's common stock is a party adverse to the Company or has a
material interest adverse to the Company in any proceeding.
The Company is a defendant in an action in New York by a lender seeking
the recovery of $250,000 based upon a promissory note. The Company has moved to
dismiss that action. The Company has filed an action in Tennessee against that
lender and two other lenders to invalidate warrants which were issued in
connection with those loans. The warrants authorize the lenders to purchase
common Stock of the Company at prices which vary as the market price of the
Company's stock varies. Should the market value of the Company's stock drop low
enough, the holders of the warrants could theoretically acquire a controlling
interest in the Company. It is the position of management that these warrants
were never validly issued and are null and void.
DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS, PROMOTERS and CONTROL PERSONS
Identification of Directors and Executive Officers
The following table sets forth the names of all former and current
directors and executive officers of the Company during the preceding calendar
year and to the date hereof. These persons will serve until the next annual
meeting of stockholders (to be held at such time as the Board of Directors shall
determine) or until their successors are elected or appointed and qualified, or
their prior resignations or terminations.

Changes in Control
Except as indicated below, to the knowledge of the Company's
management, there are no present arrangements or pledges of the Company's
securities which may result in a change in control of the Company.
DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
Authorized Capital Stock
The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 50,000,000
shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share.
Common Stock. The holders of the common stock are entitled to one vote
per share on each matter submitted to a vote at any meeting of stockholders.
Shares of common stock do not carry cumulative voting rights, and therefore, a
majority of the shares of outstanding common stock will be able to elect the
entire Board
- --------
(6) The principal shareholder of IRC is the father of Michael E. Ratliff.
103,500 shares of stock are owned by Tracmark, Inc., a corporation, the
principal shareholders of which are Michael E. Ratliff and his father.
25
<PAGE>
of Directors and, if they do so, minority stockholders would not be able to
elect any persons to the Board of Directors. The Company's Bylaws provide that a
majority of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company shall constitute a
quorum for stockholders meetings except with respect to certain matters for
which a greater percentage quorum is required by statute or the Bylaws.
Stockholders of the Company have no preemptive rights to acquire
additional shares of common stock or other securities. The common stock is not
subject to redemption and carries no subscription or conversion rights. In the
event of liquidation of the Company, the shares of common stock are entitled to
share equally in corporate assets after satisfaction of all liabilities. Holders
of common stock are entitled to receive such dividends as the Board of Directors
may from time to time declare out of funds legally available for the payment of
dividends. The Company seeks growth and expansion of its business through the
reinvestment of profits, if any, and except as indicated under the heading
"Market Price of and Dividends On the Company's Common Equity and Other
Stockholder Matters" - "Dividends" below, the Company does not anticipate that
it will pay dividends in the foreseeable future.
The Board of Directors has the authority to issue the authorized but
unissued shares of common stock without action by the stockholders. The issuance
of such shares would reduce the percentage ownership held by existing
shareholders and may dilute the book value of their shares.
There are no provisions in the Bylaws or Articles of Incorporation of
the Company which would delay, defer or prevent a change in control of the
Company.
INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES and AGENTS
Section 48-18-502 of the Tennessee Business Corporation Act (the
"TBCA") allows a corporation to indemnify any director in any civil or criminal
proceeding (other than a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation in
which the director was adjudged liable to the corporation or any other
proceeding in which he or she was adjudged liable on the basis that he or she
improperly received a personal benefit) by reason of service as a director if
the person to be indemnified conducted himself or herself in good faith and in a
manner reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of
the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no
reasonable cause to believe the conduct was unlawful.
Unless limited by its charter, Section 48-18-503 of the TBCA
requires a corporation to indemnify a director who was wholly successful, on the
merits or otherwise, in the defense of any
26
<PAGE>
proceeding to which he or she was a party because of his or her role as director
against reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the proceeding. The
Company's charter does not provide any limitations on this right of
indemnification.
Pursuant to Section 48-18-504 of the TBCA, the Company may advance a
director's expenses incurred in defending any proceeding upon receipt of an
undertaking and a statement of the director's good faith belief that he or she
has met the standard of conduct described in Section 48-18-502.
Section 48-18-505 of the TBCA permits a court, upon application of a
director, to order indemnification if it determines that the director is
entitled to mandatory indemnification under Section 48-18-503 or that be or she
is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification, whether or not he or she
met the standards set forth in Section 48-18-502.
Section 48-18-506 of the TBCA limits indemnification under Section
48-18-502 to situations in which either (i) the majority of a disinterested
quorum of directors; (ii) independent special legal counsel; or (iii) the
stockholders determine that indemnification is proper under the circumstances.
Section 48-18-507 of the TBCA extends certain indemnification rights
to officers, employees and agents of a corporation as well.
Regardless of whether a director, officer, employee or agent has the
right to indemnity under Section 48-18-502 or Section 48-18-503 of the TBCA,
Section 48-18-508 allows the corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on
his or her behalf against liability resulting from his or her corporate role.
Section 48-18-509 of the TBCA provides that the rights to
indemnification and advancement of expenses shall not be deemed exclusive of any
other rights under any bylaw, agreement, stockholder vote or vote of
disinterested directors; however, no indemnification may be made where a final
adjudication adverse to the director establishes his or her liability for breach
of the duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders or for acts or
omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing
violation of law.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Act may
be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Company
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company has been advised
that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
In the event that a claim for indemnification against
27
<PAGE>
such liabilities (other than payment by the Company of expenses incurred or paid
by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company in the successful
defenses of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director,
officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being offered
hereunder, the Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel that matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the questions whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.

Shut-in Well: A well that is not in production because of a lack of a
market or a pipeline connection.
Shut-in Royalty: Payment to royalty owners under the terms of a mineral
lease that allows the operator or lessee to defer production from a shut-in
well.

Business Development.
The Company was initially organized under the laws of the State of Utah
on April 18, 1916, under the name "Gold Deposit Mining & Milling Company." The
Company was formed for the purpose of mining, reducing and smelting mineral
ores.
At the Company's inception, the Board of Directors authorized the
issuance of 600,000 shares of its then $0.10 par value common voting stock to
directors, executive officers and persons who may be deemed to have been
promoters or founders of the Company in consideration of the conveyance to the
Company of approximately 10 lode mining claims located in the Battle Mountain
Mining District, State of Nevada. The Company conducted limited mining
operations following its organization.
The Company's Articles of Incorporation were amended on April 12, 1966,
by unanimous vote of the shareholders, to provide that the Company shall have a
perpetual existence.
On November 10, 1972, the Company conveyed to an unaffiliated entity
substantially all of the Company's assets at that time, and the Company ceased
all business operations.
In connection with a change in control of the Company, in January,
1983, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the issuance of 1,500,000
"unregistered" and "restricted" shares of its common stock to certain directors
and executive officers in consideration of cash and services rendered of an
aggregate value of $7,500.
On July 12, 1984, the Company's Articles of Incorporation were again
amended to: (i) authorize it to engage in any business or enterprise deemed to
be beneficial to the Company; (ii) increase the authorized capital of the
Company from 1,000,000 shares to 50,000,000 shares of common stock (which
allowed the Company to issue the "unregistered" and "restricted" shares referred
to in the preceding paragraph); (iii) reduce the par value of its common stock
from $0.10 to $0.001; (iv) provide that fully-paid stock shall not be liable for
any further call or assessment; and (v) provide that stockholders shall not have
preemptive rights to acquire unissued shares. There were 980,778 outstanding
voting securities of the Company on the date of the adoption of this amendment
by the stockholders of the Company, and 696,146 shares were voted in favor of
these amendments with none opposing and none abstaining.
From approximately 1983 to 1991, the operations of the Company were
limited to seeking out the acquisition of assets, property or businesses.
In contemplation of completing a "reverse" reorganization
29
<PAGE>
with Onasco Biotechnologies, Inc. ("Onasco Texas"), the stockholders of the
Company adopted, ratified and approved the following amendments to the Company's
Articles of Incorporation: (i) a forward split of the then outstanding 2,480,778
shares of common stock of the Company on a basis of 2.015496 for one, resulting
in 5,000,000 post-split shares being outstanding, and retaining the par value at
$0.001 per share, with the appropriate adjustments being made in the additional
paid in capital and stated capital accounts of the Company; and (ii) a change of
the Company's name to "Onasco Companies, Inc." These amendments were subject to
the completion of the contemplated reorganization.
The Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization with
Onasco Texas and all of its stockholders on December 17, 1991 (the "Onasco
Plan"). Pursuant to the Onasco Plan, the Company acquired all of the issued and
outstanding shares of common stock of Onasco Texas in consideration of the
Company's issuance of an aggregate total of 15,000,000 post-split "unregistered"
and "restricted" shares of its $0.001 par value common stock to the stockholders
of Onasco Texas, pro rata, in accordance with their respective interests in
Onasco Texas.
The Onasco Plan was effective as of December 18, 1991, the date on
which the aforesaid Articles of Amendment respecting the reorganization with
Onasco Texas were filed with the Department of Commerce of the State of Utah.
There were 2,480,778 outstanding voting securities of the Company on the date of
the adoption of this amendment by the stockholders of the Company, and 1,339,146
shares were voted in favor of these amendments with none opposing and none
abstaining.
Onasco Texas, which became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company
following the completion of the Onasco Plan, was organized under the laws of the
State of Texas on October 17, 1991. The Company carried on the business
operations previously conducted by Onasco Texas, which consisted of the
development of diagnostic kits to screen for the presence of Type D retrovirus
in humans and monkeys and a putative, synthetic vaccine against such viruses.
These operations, which primarily involved research and development activities,
proved unsuccessful and were discontinued in June, 1994, and Onasco Texas was
dissolved by resolution of the Board of Directors on or about April 10, 1995.
The dissolution did not involve any bankruptcy or similar proceeding.
In accordance with the Utah Revised Business Corporation Law, which
became effective in 1991, on September 11, 1992, the Company's Articles of
Incorporation were further amended (i) to authorize the stockholders of the
Company to take any action without a meeting, that could have been taken at a
meeting of the stockholders, if consents are signed by stockholders holding at
least the number of shares that would be necessary to take the action at a
meeting (this action was not possible under prior law);
30
<PAGE>
and (ii) to provide for the reclassification of each outstanding share of its
common stock to become one-twentieth of one share of new common stock
(designated "Reconstituted Common Stock"), effective September 15, 1992, with no
fractional shares being created and no stockholder to hold less than one share,
and with no change in the par value or the authorized capital. The net effect of
this reclassification was a one share for twenty reverse split of the
outstanding shares of common stock. There were 20,259,987 outstanding voting
securities of the Company on the date of the adoption of this amendment by the
stockholders of the Company, and 14,800,000 shares were voted in favor of these
amendments with none opposing and none abstaining; the outstanding voting
securities of the Company were reduced to 1,012,999 shares as a result of the
reverse split.
In connection with a change in control of the Company in the summer of
1994, Duane S. Jenson and his son, Jeffrey D. Jenson, purchased 697,500 shares
of the Company's common stock, constituting approximately 67% of the then
outstanding voting securities of the Company, from Dr. Robert C. Bohannon, Ph.D.
and his family, in consideration of the sum of $10,000. Dr. Bohannon was
formerly the principal stockholder of Onasco Texas, and had served as the
President, CEO, Vice President and a director of the Company since the
completion of the Onasco Plan. Dr. Bohannon resigned these positions with the
Company, effective June 13, 1994, compromised a debt of the Company to him for
past services rendered to the Company prior to the change in control, and
designated Jeffrey D. Jenson to serve as President, CEO, Secretary/Treasurer and
a director of the Company. At the time of the change of control, Dr. Bohannon
was the sole director and executive officer of the Company. The remaining 33% of
the Company's stock was held by original public shareholders. Subsequent to the
change in control, Dr. Bohannon did not perform any services for the Company.
Prior to the change in control, no director of the Company received compensation
in excess of $100,000 per annum.
At a special meeting of the Board of Directors held April 11, 1995, the
Board of Directors adopted resolutions providing for the granting of options to
purchase "unregistered" and "restricted" shares of common stock of the Company
to certain directors, executive officers and consultants whose service was to
commence on the closing of a Purchase Agreement then being negotiated with
Industrial Resources Corporation, a Kentucky corporation ("IRC"). See,
"Executive Compensation" - "Other Compensation" below.
At a special meeting of stockholders held on April 28, 1995, the
Company's stockholders voted;
(i) to approve the execution of the Purchase Agreement pursuant to
which the Company would acquire certain oil and gas leases, equipment,
securities and vehicles owned by IRC, in consideration of the issuance of
4,000,000 post-split (as described
31
<PAGE>
below) "unregistered" and "restricted" shares of the Company's
common stock:
(ii) to amend the Articles of Incorporation of the Company to
effect a reverse split of the Company's outstanding $0.001 par value common
stock on a basis of one share for two, retaining the par value at $0.001 per
share, with appropriate adjustments being made in the additional paid in capital
and stated capital accounts of the Company;
(iii) to change the name of the Company to "Tengasco, Inc."; and
(iv) to change the domicile of the Company from the State of Utah
to the State of Tennessee by merging the Company into Tengasco, Inc., a
Tennessee corporation, formed by the Company solely for this purpose.
The Purchase Agreement was duly executed by the Company and IRC,
effective May 2, 1995. The reverse split, name change and change of domicile
became effective on May 4, 1995, the date on which duly executed Articles of
Merger effecting these changes were filed with the Secretary of State of the
State of Tennessee; a certified copy of the Articles of Merger from the State of
Tennessee was filed with the Department of Commerce of the State of Utah on May
5, 1995. Unless otherwise noted, all subsequent computations in this Prospectus
retroactively reflect this one for two reverse split and all other reverse
splits outlined above under this caption. There were 1,037,650 outstanding
voting securities of the Company on the date of the adoption of the amendments
by the stockholders of the Company, and 801,383 shares were voted in favor of
the amendments with none opposing and none abstaining.
Thereafter, the Purchase Agreement was amended to provide for the sale
of certain additional assets for a price of $450,000 paid by the execution by
the Company of a promissory note in that amount.
The assets acquired by the Company pursuant to the Purchase Agreement,
as amended, consisted of machinery and equipment, vehicles, computer equipment,
furniture and fixtures, well equipment, land leases, intangible drilling costs
and stock of United Petroleum Corp., a public company. The book value of these
assets was $1,752,000 at the time of the acquisition. The 4,000,000 shares of
the Company's stock given as consideration for those assets had a market value,
at that time, of $1,000,000 based upon a bid price of $.25 as reported by the
National Quotation Bureau. The total cost of these assets to the Company,
including the $450,000 note, was $1,450,000.
On May 2, 1995, in connection with the execution of the Purchase
Agreement, Jeffrey D. Jenson, Kathleen L. Morrison and
32
<PAGE>
Travis T. Jenson resigned as directors and executive officers of the Company and
the following individuals were appointed to serve as directors in their stead:
George E. Walter, Jr.; Raymond E. Johnson; Jack E. Earnest; Edgar G. Baugh;
Walter C. Arzonetti; Charles N. Manhoff; Joe B. Mattei; William A. Moffett; John
O'Hagan; and Benton L. Becker. George E. Walter, Jr. was also appointed
President/CEO of the Company, and James C. Walter was appointed Vice President
and Secretary/Treasurer. None of the retiring directors had received
compensation in excess of $100,000 prior to May 2, 1995.
As compensation for services rendered and to be rendered to the
Company, including services relating to the Purchase Agreement, on May 2, 1995,
the Company also executed three written compensation agreements (the
"Compensation Agreements") providing for the issuance of a total of 505,000
"unregistered" and "restricted" shares of common stock to the following
individuals: M. E. Ratliff, Jeffrey D. Jenson; and Leonard W. Burningham, Esq.
The Compensation Agreements of Messrs. Ratliff and Jenson provided for
the issuance of 215,000 and 240,000 "unregistered" and "restricted" post-split
shares (the one for two reverse split was not effected until May 4, 1995),
respectively, to these individuals as compensation for services valued by the
Company at $21,500 each. Initially, Mr. Ratliff was to receive the same number
of shares as Mr. Jenson; however, he agreed to reduce the number of shares he
was to receive by 25,000 shares, with the additional shares being allocated as
part of the shares of common stock to be issued to Mr. Burningham under one of
the Compensation Agreements, as outlined below. The shares issued to Mr. Jenson
who is a non-affiliate, may be sold without restriction at any time after May 4,
1997. The shares issued to Mr. Ratliff, who may be deemed an affiliate, may not
be sold until such time as the Company becomes a reporting company in accordance
with the Rules of the Commission.
The Compensation Agreement of Mr. Burningham provided for the issuance
of 50,000 "unregistered" and "restricted" post-split shares of common stock as
compensation for legal services rendered and to be rendered to the Company,
exclusive of costs. These services were valued by the Company at $5,000. The
shares owned by Mr. Burningham, who is not an affiliate, became free trading on
May 4, 1997 pursuant to Rule 144 of the Rules of the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
Effective December 31, 1995, IRC agreed to accept 164,266
"unregistered" and "restricted" shares of the Company's common stock, with a
market value of $5.37 per share on such date, as full payment for debt of
approximately $882,112.25 of the Company to IRC. This debt included the note for
$450,000 plus advances of $403,613 made by IRC in 1995, for use as working
capital; for payment of salaries; for the acquisition of leases (approximately
100 leases at a cost of $4 per acre); for expert evaluations; and
33
<PAGE>
for legal services. These shares represented approximately 3% of the outstanding
shares of the Company. The price was determined based upon the average trading
price for shares of common stock of the Company on the OTC Bulletin Board as of
December 31, 1995. See, "Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and
Management", for information regarding the voting securities of the Company
owned by IRC.
At the annual meeting of stockholders held January 30, 1996, the
following persons were elected as directors of the Company, to serve until the
next annual meeting of the stockholders of the Company or until their successors
are elected and qualified, or their prior resignations or terminations: Walter
C. Arzonetti; Benton L. Becker; Charles N. Manhoff, William A. Moffett, and Lyle
G. Stockstill. At the annual meeting, 4,047,550 shares of the 5,239,300
outstanding voting securities were voted in favor of the election, with none
opposing and none abstaining.
At the annual meeting of the directors held January 30, 1996,
immediately following the annual meeting of the stockholders, the following
persons were elected as executive officers of the Company, to serve until the
next annual meeting of the Board of Directors of the Company or until their
successors are elected and qualified, or their prior resignations or
terminations: Ted P. Scallan, President and CEO; Kelley S. Grabill, Secretary;
and Jeffrey D. DeMunnik, Treasurer. At its annual meeting, the Board of
Directors also adopted resolutions pursuant to which options to purchase
"unregistered" and "restricted" shares of common stock of the Company were
granted to Messrs. Jeffrey D. DeMunnik, Kelley S. Grabill, Ted P. Scallan and
Lyle G. Stockstill, directors or executive officers of the Company, and to
certain other persons, who were consultants or employees. See, "Executive
Compensation" "Restricted Stock Options Table" below.
Mr. Stocksill and Mr. Manhoff resigned on November February 7,1997. Mr.
Valliant resigned on January 27, 1997. Mr. Becker resigned on January 30, 1997.
Mr. Arzonetti resigned on February 7, 1997. Mr. Fetter and Mr. Wright resigned

General
In connection with the Purchase Agreement, the Company acquired from
IRC the following properties:
(i) a 100% working interest in 41 oil and gas leases on a total of
8,058 acres, more or less, and a 25% working interest on one lease of 462 acres,
more or less, located in Clay County, Kentucky (collectively, the "Beech Creek
Leases"). Each of these leases provides for a landowner royalty of 12.5% of the
oil produced and saved from the leased premises or, at the lessee's option, to
pay the market price for such 12.5% royalty. The leases also provide for a
landowner royalty equal to 12.5% of the market price at the well of the gas sold
or used off the premises, except for injection for secondary recovery of oil.
The lessors are also entitled to free gas for all stoves and inside lights in
the principal dwelling house on the leased properties by making connection to
the well or wells at their own expense and risk. The Beech Creek Leases are also
subject to overriding royalties ranging from 1.25% to 5%.
(ii) a 100% working interest in 5 oil and gas leases on a total
of 741 acres, more or less, located in Clay County, Kentucky (collectively, the
"Wildcat Leases"). Each of these leases is subject to a 12.5% landowner royalty,
on the same terms as the Beech Creek Leases, and a 3.125% overriding royalty.
(iii) a 100% working interest in six oil and gas leases on a
total of 744 acres, more or less, located in Clay County, Kentucky
(collectively, the "Burning Springs Leases"). Each of these leases is subject to
a 12.5% landowner royalty, on the same terms as the Beech Creek Leases and the
Wildcat Leases, and overriding royalties ranging from 3.125% to 7.5%.
(iv) a 100% working interest in nine oil and gas leases on a
total of 2,121 acres, more or less, located in Fentress County, Tennessee
(collectively, the "Fentress County Leases"). Each of these leases is subject to
a 12.5% landowner royalty, on the same terms as the above referenced leases, and
a 19% overriding royalty; and a 25% overriding royalty on one existing well.
Section 60-1-301 of the Tennessee Code provides for a severance tax of 3% on all
gas and oil removed from the ground in Tennessee.
The initial term of each of the above referenced leases ranges from one
year to four years, with each lease to remain in effect thereafter for as long
as (i) oil, gas, casing-head gas or
35
<PAGE>
casing-head gasoline is being produced on the leased premises, (ii) the Company
has drilled a producing well and shut-in royalty is paid for the right to
inject, store and remove gas, or (iii) the Company commences drilling another
well or paying rentals within one year of drilling a dry hole on the leased
premises.
For those leases that are subject to a rental requirement, the
obligation to pay rent becomes applicable only when no well has been commenced
on the leased premises by that date. Rent may be paid annually or quarterly, and
once it has been paid, the Company has the right to defer the commencement of a
well for the period for which the rent was paid. Rent amounts vary from $1 to $5
per acre per year, with certain leases providing for a flat rental payment of
$1500.
The Beech Creek Leases contain four wells. These four wells have been
tested and management believes they are capable of producing gas in paying
quantities. Flow lines have been laid to connect these wells to the gas
transmission system of Wiser Oil Co., however, the wells are not presently in
production.
The Wildcat Leases have no wells at this time. The Company intends to
evaluate the potential of this lease block in 1997 and to schedule promising
locations for future drilling. Wiser Oil Company and Somerset Gas, two of the
oil purchasers in the area, have lines running on or adjacent to the lease
block.
The Burning Springs Leases contain a total of 11 gas wells, all of
which are shut-in. Several of the wells were in production in 1996 and were
hooked up to a nearby Southern Gas Company transport line. At present, the wells
are not producing since the compressors and related equipment have been moved to
the Swan Creek leases where, it is anticipated, the wells will be more
profitable. The Company intends to evaluate the wells that are listed as shut-in
for possible workover or deepening potential; after the evaluation, they will be
either reworked or plugged.
The Fentress County Leases currently have one well, which is shut-in.
The well will require additional work to initiate production.
Following the completion of the Purchase Agreement, the Company
acquired a 100% working interest in 210 oil and gas leases on a total of 30,367
acres more or less, located in Hancock, Claiborn County, Tennessee
(collectively, the "Swan Creek Leases"). Each of these leases provides for a
landowner royalty of 12.5%, leaving the Company a net royalty interest of 87.5%
in each lease.
The term of these leases is similar to the terms set forth above with
respect to the leases acquired from IRC.
There are five existing wells on the Swan Creek Leases.
36
<PAGE>
All of these wells have been completed and will be available for production as
soon as the pipeline is completed. The first two wells have recently tested at
4.8 million cubic feet and 1.2 million cubic feet, respectively, of gas per day.
The Company also acquired a 100% working interest in four oil and gas
leases on a total of 1,003.19 acres, more or less, located in Lauderdale County,
Alabama (collectively, the "Alabama Leases"). Each of these leases provides for
a landowner royalty of 12.5%, leaving the Company a net royalty interest of
87.5% in each lease.
The Alabama Leases have no existing wells. These leases will be
designated for wildcat purposes and there is no immediate plan to acquire
additional leases in the area or to begin an exploration program.
The term of these leases is similar to the terms described above with
respect to the leases acquired from IRC.
The obligation to pay rent becomes applicable only when no well has been
commenced on the leased premises by that date. Rent may be paid annually
or quarterly, and once it has been paid, the Company has the right to
defer the commencement of a well for the period for which the rent was
paid. Rent amounts are $1 per acre per year.
Substantial additional evaluation and remedial work will be necessary
in order to determine whether most of the Company's wells will be able to
produce oil and gas in paying quantities and to make them produce in such
quantities. The Company's ability to perform these operations will depend to a
great degree on its ability to raise sufficient funding to develop its leases,
as to which no assurance can be given. Nor can any assurance be given that if
the Company is able to obtain such funding, it will be able to produce oil and
gas in profitable quantities.
Governmental Regulations
The Company is subject to numerous state and federal regulations,
environmental and otherwise, that may have a substantial negative effect on its
ability to operate at a profit. For a discussion of the risks involved as a
result of such regulations, see, "Effect of Existing or Probable Governmental
Regulations on Business" and "Costs and Effects of Compliance with Environmental
Laws" hereinafter in this section.
37
<PAGE>
Principal Products or Services and Markets
The Company will conduct exploration and production activities
to produce crude oil and natural gas. The principal markets for these
commodities are local refining companies, major natural gas transmission
pipeline companies, local utilities and private industry end users, which
purchase the crude oil, and natural gas pipeline companies, which purchase the
gas. There are currently two gas transmission lines that run through the Beech
Creek Leases; these lines can be accessed to sell gas produced from the leases.
There are two more transmission lines within approximately two miles of these
leases.
In Hancock County, gas production from the Swan Creek Leases will be
delivered into the major transmission line of East Tennessee Natural Gas. At the
present time, there is no completed pipeline from these leases to the East
Tennessee Natural Gas pipeline. The Company is in the process of constructing
such a pipeline which is approximately 70% completed and is expected to be
completed during the last quarter of 1997. The pipeline will be approximately 23
miles long and is made of 8 inch steel pipe. The cost to date has been
approximately $1,500,000. Completion is expected to cost approximately an
additional $700,000. The Company has acquired all necessary regulatory approvals
and 99% of necessary property rights to complete this pipeline. It anticipates
having the remaining property rights within two months. The Company's pipeline
will not only service the Company's wells, but, will provide transportation of
gas for small independent producers in the local area as well. It is anticipated
that direct sales could also be made to some local towns and industries. No
assurance can be given that the Company will be able to produce a sufficient
quantity of crude oil or natural gas to make these operations profitable.
Reserve Analyses
Coburn Petroleum Engineering of Tulsa, Oklahoma, has performed reserve
analyses of all the Company's productive leases. R. W. Coburn, a registered
petroleum engineer, and the owner of Coburn Petroleum Engineering, has no
interest in the Company or IRC, and performed these services at his standard
rate ($90 per hour was billed and paid for these reports). The net reserve
values used hereafter were obtained from a report dated June 18, 1997 prepared
by Coburn Petroleum Engineering. In substance, the report, used estimates of oil
and gas reserves based upon standard petroleum engineering methods which include
decline curve analysis, volumetric calculations, pressure history, analogy,
various correlations and technical judgment. Information for this purpose was
obtained from owners of interests in the areas involved, state regulatory
agencies, commercial services, outside operators and files of Coburn Petroleum
Engineering.
38
<PAGE>
Discounting the net reserve values by 10% results in a present value of
$33,874,577 for the Swan Creek Field, $5,929,992 for the Beech Creek Leases,
$996,280 for the Fentress County Leases and $547,248 for the Burning Springs
Leases. Reserve analyses are at best speculative, especially when based upon
limited production; no assurance can be given that the reserves attributed to
these leases exist or will be economically recoverable. See, "Risk Factors" -
"Uncertainty of Reserve Estimates."
It is standard in the industry for reserve analyses such as these to be
used as a basis for financing of drilling costs. Thus, based upon the reserve
analyses for the Swan Creek leases, Enserch has agreed to provide funds for
drilling in that field.
Distribution Methods of Products or Services
Crude oil is normally distributed in this area by tank truck and
natural gas is distributed and transported via pipeline. Gas purchasers in the
area include Delta Natural Gas Company, Inc., Wiser Oil Company, Southern Gas
Company of Delaware, Inc., Somerset Gas and East Tennessee Natural Gas. Delta
and Wiser operate a gas gathering system that runs through the center of the
Company's Beech Creek leases. The existing Beech Creek wells have been tied into
the Wiser Oil Company system in anticipation of future production. The Burning
Springs wells are connected to Southern Gas Company's gathering system.
Should the Company decide to use transmission lines owned by other
businesses, it will have to negotiate the prices to be paid with the owner of
that transmission line, provided capacity is available. There can be no
assurance that prices can be negotiated which will enable the Company to sell
its products profitably.
Oil from the Fentress County Leases will be stored in a tank battery
consisting of two 210 barrel tanks while awaiting shipment by tank truck.
Gas production from the Swan Creek Leases will go into the East
Tennessee Natural Gas transmission system through use of the pipeline presently
under construction by the Company, as described above.
The Company has no farmout agreements with any entity.
Status of Any Publicly Announced New Product or Service
The Company does not have any publicly announced new product or
service.

Competitive Business Conditions, Competitive Position in the Industry and
Methods of Competition
The Company's contemplated oil and gas exploration activities in the
States of Kentucky and Tennessee will be undertaken in a highly competitive and
speculative business atmosphere. In seeking any other suitable oil and gas
properties for acquisition, the Company will be competing with a number of other
companies located in the State of Kentucky and elsewhere, including large oil
and gas companies and other independent operators with greater financial
resources. Management does not believe that the Company's initial competitive
position in the oil and gas industry will be significant.
At the local level, the Company has only two competitors in the area of
its acreage blocks in the State of Kentucky, who are: Equitable Resources and
Ashland Oil. Its principal competitors in the State of Tennessee are Ashland Oil
and Miller Services; and in the State of Alabama are Engineering Development
Corp. and Torch Operating Co. In the area of the Company's pipeline, the Company
is in a favorable position since it will own the only pipeline within a 20 mile
radius. Within that area, the Company owns leases on approximately 30,367 acres.
In addition, remaining landowners will find it difficult to deal with any other
oil and gas companies since such companies will not have access to a pipeline.
Geological studies indicate the existence of many possible productive fields in
the area of the Company's pipeline.
Management does not foresee any difficulties in procuring drilling rigs
or the manpower to run them in the area of its operations. The experience of
management has been that in most instances, drilling rigs have only a one or two
day waiting period; however, several factors, including increased competition in
the area, may limit the availability of drilling rigs, rig operators and related
personnel and/or equipment; such an event may have a significant adverse impact
on the profitability of the Company's operations.
The Company anticipates no difficulty in procuring well drilling
permits which are obtained from the Tennessee Oil and Gas Board. They are
usually issued within one week of application. The Company generally does not
apply for a permit until it is actually ready to commence drilling operations.
The Company presently has five well drilling permits for use anywhere in
Tennessee.
The prices of the Company's products are controlled by the world oil
market and the United States natural gas market; thus, competitive pricing
behaviors are considered unlikely; however, competition in the oil and gas
exploration industry exists in the form of competition to acquire the most
promising acreage blocks and obtaining the most favorable prices for
transporting the product. Management believes that the Company is
well-positioned
40
<PAGE>
in these areas because of the transmission lines that run through and adjacent
to the properties it leases and because it holds relatively large acreage blocks
in what management believes are promising areas.
Sources and Availability of Raw Materials
and Names of Principal Suppliers
Excluding the development of oil and gas reserves and the production of
oil and gas, the Company's operations are not dependent on the acquisition of
any raw materials. See, "Competitive Business Conditions, Competitive Position
in the Industry and Methods of Competition" set forth above.
Dependence on One or a Few Major Customers
The Company will be dependent on local purchasers of hydrocarbons in
the areas where its properties are located for sales of its products. The five
purchasers in the areas of the Company's operations are Wiser, Southern, Delta,
Somerset and East Tennessee Natural Gas. The only customers with which the
Company has a written contract are Hawkins County Utilities and Powell Valley
Electric Cooperative. Those entities have agreed to purchase gas from the
Company's Hancock County fields upon completion of the pipeline. It is
anticipated that sales to Hawkins County Utilities will amount to approximately
4,000 MCF per day. Sales to Powell Valley Electric Cooperative are to be
determined at a future date.
Patents, Trademarks, Licenses, Franchises, Concessions,
Royalty Agreements or Labor Contracts, including Duration
Royalty agreements relating to oil and gas production are standard in
the industry. The amount of the Company's royalty payments varies from lease to
lease. See, the heading "General" under this section. The amounts of the
royalties on each of the Company's leases may be obtained from the Company.
Need for Governmental Approval of Principal Products or Services
None of the principal products or services offered by the Company
require governmental approval; however, permits are required for drilling oil or
gas wells. See, "Effect of Existing or Probable Governmental Regulations on
Business " below in this
41
<PAGE>
section.
Effect of Existing or Probable Governmental Regulations on Business
Exploration and production activities relating to oil and gas leases
are subject to numerous environmental laws, rules and regulations. The Federal
Clean Water Act requires the Company to construct a fresh water containment
barrier between the surface of each drilling site and the underlying water
table. This involves the insertion of a seven-inch diameter steel casing into
each well, with cement on the outside of the casing. The cost of compliance with
this environmental regulation is approximately $10,000 per well.
The State of Kentucky also requires oil and gas drillers to obtain a
permit for their activities and to post with the Division of Oil and Gas of the
Kentucky Department of Minerals and Mines (the "Kentucky Division") a bond to
ensure that each well is properly plugged when it is abandoned. These bonds are
based on $1 per foot, Each of the Kentucky wells has a $5,000 bond which was
originally posted by IRC and remains in place. The Kentucky Division will retain
the bond until the subject wells are plugged.
The State of Tennessee also requires the posting of a bond to ensure
that the Company's wells are properly plugged when abandoned. A separate $2,000
bond is required for each well drilled. The Company currently has a $10,000 bond
on deposit with the State of Tennessee. See, "Description of Property" -
"Disclosure of Oil and Gas Operations" below.
The State of Alabama also requires the posting of a bond to ensure that
the Company's wells are properly plugged when abandoned. A single-well bond,
which varies between $5,000 and $50,000, depending upon well depth, or a blanket
bond of $100,000, may be obtained for wells drilled on-shore. At the present
time, the Company does not have plans to drill any wells in the State of
Alabama.
The Company's operations are also subject to laws and regulations
requiring removal and cleanup of environmental damages under certain
circumstances. Laws and regulations protecting the environment have generally
become more stringent in recent years, and may in certain circumstances impose
"strict liability," rendering a corporation liable for environmental damages
without regard to negligence or fault on the part of such corporation. Such laws
and regulations may expose the Company to liability for the conduct of
operations or conditions caused by others, or for acts of the Company which were
in compliance with all applicable laws at the time such acts were performed. The
modification of existing laws or regulations or the adoption of new laws or
regulations relating to environmental matters could have a material
42
<PAGE>
adverse effect on the Company's operations. In addition, the Company's existing
and proposed operations could result in liability for fires, blowouts, oil
spills, discharge of hazardous materials into surface and subsurface aquifers
and other environmental damage, any one of which could result in personal
injury, loss of life, property damage or destruction or suspension of
operations.
The Company believes it is presently in compliance with all applicable
federal, state or local environmental laws, rules or regulations; however,
continued compliance (or failure to comply) and future legislation may have an
adverse impact on the Company's present and contemplated business operations.
At Board of Directors' meetings held June 6 and 7, 1995, the Board of
Directors adopted resolutions to form an Environmental Response Policy and
Emergency Action Response Policy Program; this program has not yet been
implemented, and will entail an analysis of specific operations.
The foregoing is only a brief summary of some of the existing
environmental laws, rules and regulations to which the Company's business
operations are subject, and there are many others, the effects of which could
have an adverse impact on the Company. Future legislation in this area will no
doubt be enacted and revisions will be made in current laws. No assurance can be
given as to what effect these present and future laws, rules and regulations
will have on the Company's current and future operations.
Research and Development
The Company has not expended any material amount in research and
development activities during the last two fiscal years. Research done in
conjunction with its exploration activities will consist primarily of running
radiometric surveys on the lease blocks and conducting geological research on
the surface. This work will fall under the job description of the geologist to
be hired for these activities and will not have a material cost of anything more
than his or her standard salary. See, Number of Total Employees and Number of
Full-Time Employees" set forth below in this section.
Cost and Effects of Compliance With Environmental Laws
See, "Effect of Existing or Probable Governmental Regulations on
Business" set forth above in this section.
43
<PAGE>
Number of Total Employees and Number of Full-Time Employees
The Company presently has ten full-time employees and eight part-time
employees. When it commences its full-scale oil and gas operations, the Company
plans to add additional full-time employees, exclusive of executive officers.
The Company has hired a full-time geologist at a salaryof $40,000 per
year. His duties for the Company include: surface and sub-surface geology, log
correlation, surface and sub-surface mapping, field--research (i.e.,
radiometric, gravity, magnetic and geochemical research) and well-site geology.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION and ANALYSIS or PLAN of OPERATION
The Company intends to commence full scale development of its Swan
Creek Leases. The Swan Creek structure is confirmed at the surface on geologic
quadrangle maps showing the Clinchport thrust fault controlling the structure.
Additionally, the structure is verified at depth by the successful drilling of
the Reed #1 and Sutton #1, completed in the early 1980s. The Reed #1 and Sutton
#1 could be expected to cumulatively produce approximately six billion cubic
feet of gas at an initial rate of approximately 3,500,000 cubic feet per day.
The Reed #1 tested at 4,800,000 cubic feet per day of gas in the Knox Formation
on a 32/64 inch choke. The well exhibited a flowing pressure of 800 psi during
the test. The Sutton #1 well is two miles to the northeast of the Reed well.
This well tested 1,200,00 cubic feet per day on a 32/64 inch choke, with a
flowing pressure of 150 psi. Management's assertions with respect to the
capacity of these wells is based upon engineering reports and confirmation of
estimates based upon the results from the completed wells.
The Company's present plans call for the drilling of approximately
fifty additional wells on the Swan Creek leases over a two to three year period
at a cost of approximately $225,000 per well. Completion of the pipeline
presently being constructed by the Company and which is necessary in order for
the Company to be able to sell its gas is anticipated by the end of 1997 at a
cost of approximately $750,000.
Thereafter, the Company plans to construct two extensions to its
pipelines so as to enable it to exploit other leases which are part of the Swan
Creek leases. These extensions which will be approximately 40 miles in length
will cost approximately $4,000,000. The Company's ability to expand its
operations in this manner is dependent upon the success of the Company's
drilling program. Moreover, no assurance can be given that the Company will be
able to obtain the required rights of way to construct any such
44
<PAGE>
pipeline, and the pipeline currently under construction will only serve
production from a portion of the Swan Creek Field.
The Company does not have the funds needed to enable it to complete the
pipeline and to conduct its planned drilling activities. It is engaged in
discussions with certain entities and anticipates that it will be able to
acquire the necessary funds.
Exploitation of the other leases held by the Company is being placed on
hold at the present time.
The sales price for gas is determined on the basis of an index used by
all suppliers and users of gas. The price fluctuates between $2.50 per MCF and
$4.50 per MCF, usually higher during the cold weather months. The cost of
production from the well averages approximately $.22 per MCF. Transportation
costs are approximately $.40 per MCF which includes amortization of the
pipeline. In addition, the Company anticipates receiving revenue from third
parties who desire to use the pipeline.
To date, the Company has not drilled any dry wells.
There can be no assurance, of course, that all of the funding
necessary for the completion of the wells will become available. It is
anticipated that the Company will implement development programs on the Beech
Creek and Fentress County Leases sometime in the future The Swan Creek Leases
are being given first priority because of their higher economic attractiveness.
Management anticipates both short term and long term increases in oil
and gas prices which should have a positive effect on the Company's income and
profits.
The Company has no plans, at present, to increase the number of its
employees significantly.
Other Significant Plans
The Company also intends to actively pursue the gas marketing
business on the Eastern seaboard. The Eastern seaboard, and Tennessee in
particular, has numerous industrial end users of natural gas that are currently
exposed to a limited number of gas suppliers. The Company has entered into an
agreement with Enserch Energy Services, Inc. ("Enserch") pursuant to which the
Company and Enserch will market each other's product in Tennessee.
In addition to an active drilling program the Company intends to
continue strategically acquiring leases in promising areas in the States of
Kentucky and Tennessee. No assurance can be given that the Company will be able
to identify or acquire any such leases or that if it does acquire any such
leases, they will be
45
<PAGE>
profitable.
This plan of operation is based upon many variables and estimates, all
of which may change or prove to be other than or different from information
relied upon.
Results of Operations
Effective May 2, 1995, and pursuant to a Purchase Agreement, the
Company acquired certain oil and gas-leases, equipment, marketable securities
and vehicles, from IRC. Following the completion of this transaction, the
Company changed its domicile to the State of Tennessee on May 5, 1995. Prior to
the completion of this Purchase Agreement, the Company had been inactive from
1993, and had little or no assets or operations. The assets reflected as being
owned on December 31, 1995, were all primarily acquired from IRC.
During the year ended December 31, 1996, the Company had revenues of
$26,253 as compared with revenues of $28,526 for the year ended December 31,
1995. The revenues resulted from the sale of gas. The Company has shut in the
wells which produced that gas, transferring some of the equipment to the Swan
Creek lease in anticipation of the completion of the pipeline.
Depletion, depreciation and amortization expense increased from $89,528
for 1995 to $133,187 for 1996 as a result of the fact that the Company did not
acquire its assets from IRC until May, 1995 so that there were only seven months
of depreciation during 1995.
Unrealized holding losses on marketable equity securities ($593,792 in
1995) were a one-time event and were not incurred in 1996.
General and administrative expense also increased substantially during
the same periods as the result of the addition of four full time employees and
salaried executive officers, and increased rental for new executive offices
which were leased in January, 1996.
Interest expense increased from $32,594 to $145,302 in 1996 due to the
amortization of long-term debt discounts associated with certain stock warrants
granted in connection with such debt.
The increase in net loss from operations during the year ended December
31, 1996 as compared with the year ended December 31, 1995 was due primarily to
the increased general and administrative expense, offset somewhat by the
non-recurrence of losses on marketable equity securities.
46
<PAGE>
The Company had no revenues during the six month period ending June 30,
1997 since it shut in the wells which it had been operating in 1996 in order to
concentrate on the pipeline and the Swan Creek leases.
Liquidity
Loans in the aggregate total of $882,112 were advanced by IRC, a
related party and an "affiliate" of the Company during the year ended December
31, 1995, and 164,266 "unregistered" and "restricted" shares of the Company's
common stock were issued as of December 31, 1995, in full payment of this
indebtedness.
Revenues from operations during the year ended December 31, 1996 and
the six months ended June 30, 1997 were insufficient to fund the Company's
operations. The Company has relied upon loans of $1,000,000 from third parties
in 1996 and a loan of $750,000 from a third party in 1997 to fund its
activities. In addition, during 1996, loans of approximately $941,000 were
advanced by IRC and $110,350 by Michael E. Ratliff. These loans plus accrued
interest were satisfied by the issuance of 101,146 shares of the Company's
common stock to IRC and 13,320 shares to Michael E. Ratliff.
In 1997, IRC advanced $323,005 to the Company, Michael E. Ratliff
advanced $12,000 and Tracmark, Inc., a subsidiary of IRC, advanced $133,420.
These loans, plus accrued interest, were satisfied by the issuance of 59,328
shares of the Company's common stock to IRC, 2,204 shares to Michael E. Ratliff
and 24,552 shares to Tracmark, Inc. The Company anticipates meeting its
operating needs for 1997 by means of its agreement with Enserch.
During the first quarter of 1996, the Company sold 166,667 shares of
stock it had acquired from IRC pursuant to the Purchase Agreement for $250,000;
received $91,119 from the exercise of options; and $280,690 from a private
placement of stock.
These revenues and loans accounted for substantially all of
the Company's liquidity during this year.
DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
Property Location, Facilities, Size and Nature of Ownership
The Company holds oil and gas leases on the following properties
located near Manchester, Kentucky: (i) 8,058 acres in the Beech Creek Leases;
(ii) 744 acres in the Wildcat Leases; and (iii) 741 acres in the Burning Springs
Leases. The Company also
47
<PAGE>
holds leases on 2,121 acres in Fentress County, Tennessee, near Jamestown. There
are currently two producing wells on the Tennessee acreage, only one of which is
owned by the Company. Additionally, the Company holds leases on 30,363 acres in
Hancock County, Tennessee, and 1,003.19 acres in Lauderdale County, Alabama. The
initial terms of these leases varies from one to four years. Many of them can be
extended at the option of the Company by payment of annual rent. Some of them
will terminate unless the Company has commenced drilling. However, the Company
does not anticipate any difficulty in continuing those leases, particularly in
Hancock County, since the Company's pipeline will be the only means available to
landowners in that area to sell any gas produced from wells on their property.
See, "Description of Business" "General" above.
The Beech Creek Leases provide for a landowner royalty of 12.5% of the
oil produced and saved from the leased premises or, at the lessee's option, to
pay the market price for such 12.5% royalty. The leases also provide for a
landowner royalty equal to 12.5% of the market price at the well of the gas sold
or used off the premises, except for injection for secondary recovery of oil.
The lessors are also entitled to free gas for all stoves and inside lights in
the principal dwelling house on the leased properties by making connection to
the well or wells at their own expense and risk. The Beech Creek Leases are also
subject to overriding royalties ranging from 1.25% to 5%.
The Wildcat Leases provide for a 12.5% landowner royalty, on the same
terms as the Beech Creek Leases, and a 3.125% overriding royalty.
The Burning Springs Leases are subject to a 12.5% landowner royalty, on
the same terms as the Beech Creek Leases and the Wildcat Leases, and overriding
royalties ranging from 3.125% to 7.5%.
The Fentress County Leases are subject to a 12.5% landowner royalty, on
the same terms as the above referenced leases, and a 19% overriding royalty; and
a 25% overriding royalty on one existing well. Section 60-1-301 of the Tennessee
Code provides for a severance tax of 3% on all gas and oil removed from the
ground in Tennessee.
The Company leases its principal executive offices, consisting of
approximately 4,731 square feet located at 603 Main Avenue, Suite 500,
Knoxville, Tennessee, at a monthly rent of $3,942.50.
In addition, the Company has drilling equipment and vehicles which it
acquired from IRC. All of this equipment is in satisfactory operating condition.
The securities which the Company acquired from IRC were sold during 1996 for
$250,000.

Disclosure of Oil and Gas Operations
On May 2, 1995, upon the execution of the Purchase Agreement with IRC,
the Company acquired the rights to certain oil and gas leases in the
State of Kentucky (the "Beech Creek Leases," "Wildcat Leases" and
"Burning Springs Leases") and the State of Tennessee (then "Fentress
County Leases"). Subsequently, the Company also acquired additional
acreage in Tennessee (the "Swan Creek Leases") and in Alabama (the
"Alabama Leases"). See, "Description of Business" - "Business
Development" and "General" above.
The Company was not engaged in the business of oil and gas exploration
and development prior to the date of the IRC Purchase Agreement. IRC, the entity
from which the Company acquired certain of these properties, drilled four wells
on the Beech Creek Leases in the past three years. All of these wells are
capable of producing gas in paying quantities, according to tests run on the
wells. IRC also drilled a well on one of the Fentress County Leases; this well
is currently shut in and awaiting a workover.
Eleven wells on the Burning Springs leases are currently shut-in. There
are two completed wells on the Swan Creek leases, the Reed #1 and the Sutton #1,
which discovered and proved the structure in the early 1980s. These wells have
recently tested at 4,800,000 and 1,200,000 cubic feet of gas per day. The
Company has drilled three additional wells in 1996. Development of the Swan
Creek Field will require the completion of the pipeline to deliver gas to a
transmission company with the tie-in point being located approximately 23 miles
away from the field. The pipeline is approximately two-thirds completed and is
expected to be complete by the end of the year.
Tests to date on the completed wells on the Swan Creek leases indicate
substantial potential for future deliverability. Based upon engineering reports,
management believes that the wells drilled to date have a life expectancy of
approximately 37 years on a declining basis.
The Company does not pay any taxes on its leased property and does not
carry any insurance on the vacant land.
The Alabama Leases have no existing wells. These leases are "wildcat"
explorations and there is no immediate plan to acquire additional leases in the
area or to begin an exploration program.
No estimate of total, proved net oil or gas reserves has been filed
with or included in reports to any federal authority since the beginning of the
Company's last fiscal year.
49
<PAGE>
The Company is currently not a party to any contract or
agreement obligating it to provide a fixed and determinable quantity of oil or
gas in the future, but anticipates entering into such contracts for delivery of
gas commencing as early as December, 1997.

Compensation Pursuant to Plans
The Company does not presently have any stock option, stock incentive,
bonus or similar plan for its directors, executive officers or employees;
however, options have been granted to directors and executive officers and
certain consultants of the Company to purchase shares of "unregistered" and
"restricted" common stock of the Company at various prices. See, "Other
Compensation" and the "Restricted Stock Options Table" set forth below in this
section.

Pension Table
The Company does not presently have a pension or similar plan for its
directors, executive officers or employees. Management intends to adopt a 401(k)
plan and full liability insurance for directors and executive officers and a
health insurance plan for employees in the near future.
Other Compensation
On April 11, 1995, the Board of Directors resolved that each member of
the Board of Directors would receive compensation in the form of an option to
purchase 100,000 "unregistered" and "restricted" post-split shares of the
Company's common stock at a price of $0.25 per share. Pursuant to a resolution
of the Board of Directors on May 2, 1995, the exercise price of such options was
increased to $0.275 per share, which amount was then equal to 110% of the
average bid prices for the Company's common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board on
the date of the grant.
Commencing on May 4, 1995, certain other officers and consultants were
induced to serve as executive officers or consultants of the Company in
consideration of the grant of a similar option, and these options were ratified
by the Board of Directors at meetings held June 6 and 7, 1995, in Nashville,
Tennessee. At the annual meeting of the Board of Directors which was held on
January 30, 1996, immediately following the annual meeting of stockholders, the
Board of Directors also granted certain other directors, executive officers,
consultants and employees options to acquire shares of the Company's
"unregistered" and "restricted" shares of common stock of the Company.
The following table sets forth the names of the optionees, the
number of shares granted and the beginning and e expiration dates of the options
granted:

Compensation of Directors
The Board of Directors has resolved to compensate members of the Board
of Directors for attendance at meetings at the rate of $250 per day, together
with direct out-of-pocket expenses incurred in attendance at the meetings,
including travel.
Members of the Board of Directors may also be requested to perform
consulting or other professional services for the Company from time to time. The
Board of Directors will set a rate of compensation for such services which may
be no less favorable to the Company than if the services had been performed by
an independent third party contractor. The Board of Directors has reserved to
itself the right to review all directors' claims for compensation on an ad hoc
basis.
Employment Contracts
There are presently no employment contracts relating to any member of
management, however, depending upon the Company's operations and Requirements,
the Company may offer long term contracts to directors, executive officers or
key employees in the future.
Termination of Employment and Change of Control Arrangement
None; not applicable.
CHANGES IN and DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS
ON ACCOUNTING and FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
Change from David T. Thomson, CPA to Charles M. Stivers, CPA
David T. Thomson, Certified Public Accountant, of Salt Lake City, Utah,
audited the financial statements of Onasco Companies, Inc. (the Company's
predecessor) for the year ended December 31, 1994. This financial statement
accompanies this Prospectus.
Charles M. Stivers, Certified Public Accountant, of Manchester,
Kentucky, was engaged as the Company's accountant on May 4, 1995, and reviewed
interim unaudited financial statements of the Company prepared by management.
There were no disagreements between the Company and Mr.
59
<PAGE>
Thomson, whether resolved or not resolved, on any matter of accounting
principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or
procedure, which, if not resolved, would have caused him to make reference to
the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with his report.
The report of Mr. Thomson for the past two fiscal years did not contain
any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and was not qualified or modified
as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
The decision to change principal accountants was not submitted for
approval to the Board of Directors; the change was made by the Company's
President to Mr. Stivers because Mr. Stivers was the accountant who audited the
cost basis of the principal assets of the Company acquired from IRC pursuant to
the Purchase Agreement in May of 1995, and the Company had little or no
operations prior to the completion of the Purchase Agreement.
Also, during the Company's two most recent fiscal years, and since
then, Mr. Thomson has not advised the Company that any of the following exist or
are applicable:
(1) That the internal controls necessary for the Company to
develop reliable financial statements do not exist, that
information has come to his attention that has led him to no
longer be able to rely on management's representations, or
that has made him unwilling to be associated with the
financial statements prepared by management,
(2) That the Company needs to expand significantly the scope of
its audit, or that information has come to his attention that
if further investigated may materially impact the fairness or
reliability of a previously issued audit report or the
underlying financial statements or any other financial
presentation, or cause him to be unwilling to rely on
management's representations or be associated with the
Company's financial statements for the foregoing reasons or
any other reason; or
(3) That he has advised the Company that information has come to
his attention that he has concluded materially impacts the
fairness or reliability of either a previously issued audit
report or the underlying financial statements for the
foregoing reasons or any other reason.
Further, during the Company's two most recent fiscal years and
since then, the Company has not consulted Mr. Thomson regarding the application
of accounting principles to a specified
60
<PAGE>
transaction, either completed or proposed; or the type of audit opinion that
might be rendered on the Company's financial statements or any other financial
presentation whatsoever.
The Company has provided Mr. Thomson with a copy of the
disclosure provided under this caption of the Prospectus, and he has provided
the Company with a letter addressed to the Commission stating that he agrees
with the disclosures made herein.
Change from Charles M. Stivers. CPA. to Price-Bednar, LLP, CPA
Price-Bednar, LLP, Certified Public Accountants, were engaged
as the Company's accountants as of February 22, 1996, to audit the financial
statements of the Company for the calendar year ending December 31, 1995.
There were no disagreements between the Company and Mr.
Stivers, whether resolved or not resolved, on any matter of accounting
principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or
procedure, which, if not resolved, would have caused him to make reference to
the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with his unaudited reports.
The unaudited reports of Mr. Stivers did not contain any
adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as
to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
The decision to change principal accountants was submitted for
approval to the Board of Directors; the change was made to Price-Bednar because
the Company was seeking to find a larger accounting firm with more in-depth
experience in Commission filings.
Also, during the Company's most recent fiscal year, and since
then, Mr. Stivers has not advised the Company that any of the following exist or
are applicable:
(1) That the internal controls necessary for the Company to
develop reliable financial statements do not exist, that
information has come to his attention that has led him to no
longer be able to rely on management's representations, or
that has made them unwilling to be associated with the
financial statements prepared by management,
(2) That the Company needs to expand significantly the scope of
its audit, or that information has come to his attention that
if further investigated may materially impact the fairness or
reliability of a previously issued audit report or the
underlying financial statements or any other financial
61
<PAGE>
presentation, or cause him to be unwilling to rely on
management's representations or be associated with the
Company's financial statements for the foregoing reasons or
any other reason; or
(3) That he has advised the Company that information has come to
his attention that he has concluded materially impacts the
fairness or reliability of either a previously issued audit
report or the underlying financial statements for the
foregoing reasons or any other reason.
Further, during the Company's most recent fiscal year and
since then, the Company has not consulted Mr. Stivers regarding the application
of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or
proposed or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's
financial statements or any other financial presentation whatsoever.
The Company has provided Mr. Stivers with a copy of the
disclosure provided under this caption of the Registration Statement, and he has
provided the Company with a letter addressed to the Commission stating that he
agrees with the disclosures made herein.
Change from Price-Bednar, LLP, CPA to Charles M. Stivers, CPA
The Company had engaged the services of another accountant to
complete certain preparatory on-site audit activities for preliminary review by
Price-Bednar. These services were not timely provided by the other accountant.
Also, many of the records of Industrial Resources Corporation, a predecessor of
the Company, were unavailable, and, Price-Bednar required a number of these
records to be reconstructed prior to its completion of the audit. During the
week of May 20, 1996, the Company was advised that the principal accountant of
Price-Bednar, who was responsible for the Company's audit, would be out of town
for the following week, and it became clear that Price-Bednar would not be able
to complete the audit for at least three weeks, because certain information
requested by them had not yet been provided by the Company. Price-Bednar was
terminated by the President, effective June 7, 1996, and Charles M. Stivers,
CPA, who had been engaged to conduct the preparatory on-site audit activities
for Price-Bednar when the other accountant failed to perform as promised,
indicated that he could timely deliver the required audit report and was
promptly engaged to do so by the Board of Directors.
Also, during, the Company's two most recent fiscal years, and
since then, Price-Bednar has not advised the Company that any of the following
exist or are applicable:
(1) That the internal controls necessary for the
62
<PAGE>
Company to develop reliable financial statements do not
exist, that information has come to their attention that has
led them to no longer be able to rely on management's
representations, or that has made them unwilling to be
associated with the financial statements prepared by
management;
(2) That the Company needs to expand significantly the scope of
its audit, or that information has come to their attention
that if further investigated may materially impact the
fairness or reliability of a previously issued audit report
or the underlying financial statements or any other financial
presentation, or cause them to be unwilling to rely on
management's representations or be associated with the
Company's financial statements for the foregoing reasons or
any other reason; or
(3) That they have advised the Company that information has come
to their attention that they have concluded materially
impacts the fairness or reliability of either a previously
issued report or the underlying financial statements for the
foregoing reasons or any other reason.
Further, during the Company's two most recent fiscal years and
since then, the Company has not consulted Price-Bednar regarding the application
of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or
proposed; or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's
financial statements or any other financial presentation whatsoever.
The Company has provided Price-Bednar with a copy of the
disclosure provided under this caption of the Registration Statement, and it has
provided the Company with a letter addressed to the Commission stating that it
agrees with the disclosures made herein.
Change from Charles M. Stivers, CPA, to BDO Seidman,LLP
The Company terminated Charles M. Stivers, CPA and retained
BDO Seidman, LLP effective to conduct the audit of the Company's financial
statements for the year ended December 31, 1996 because it became apparent that
Charles M. Stivers, as an individual practitioner, would not be able to perform
the required audit on a timely basis.
During, the Company's two most recent fiscal years, and since
then, Charles M. Stivers has not advised the Company that any of the following
exist or are applicable:
63
<PAGE>
(1) That the internal controls necessary for the Company to
develop reliable financial statements do not exist, that
information has come to his attention that has led him to no

financial statements prepared by management;
(2) That the Company needs to expand significantly the scope of
its audit, or that information has come to his attention that
if further investigated may materially impact the fairness or
reliability of a previously issued audit report or the
underlying financial statements or any other financial
presentation, or cause him to be unwilling to rely on

any other reason; or
(3) That he has advised the Company that information has come to
his attention that he has concluded materially impacts the
fairness or reliability of either a previously issued report
or the underlying financial statements for the foregoing
reasons or any other reason.
Further, during the Company's two most recent fiscal years and
since then, the Company has not consulted Charles M. Stivers regarding the
application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either
completed or proposed; or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on
the Company's financial statements or any other financial presentation
whatsoever.
The Company has provided Charles M. Stivers with a copy of the
disclosure provided under this caption of the Registration Statement, and he has
provided the Company with a letter addressed to the Commission stating that he
agrees with the disclosures made herein.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
Board of Directors
ONASCO COMPANIES, INC.
(Formerly Gold Deposit Mining and Milling Company)
I have audited the balance sheets of Onasco Companies, Inc. (Formerly Gold
Deposit Mining and Milling Company) (a development stage company) as of
December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, and the related statements of operations,
stockholders' equity and cash flows from November 1, 1991 to December 31,
1994. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on my audits. The financial statements of Onasco
Companies, Inc. and its Subsidiary as of October 31, 1991 and from
development stage inception (October 17, 1991) to October 31, 1991 were
audited by other auditors whose reports dated November 6, 1991 and November
18, 1991 expressed unqualified opinions on those statements.
I conducted my audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that I plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used
and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statements presentation. I believe that my audits provide
a reasonable basis for my opinion.
In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of Onasco Companies, Inc.
as of December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992 and the results of its operations
and its cash flows from November 1, 1991 to December 31, 1994, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1, the
Company is in the development stage and its ability to establish itself as
a going concern is dependent upon the Company obtaining sufficient
financing to continue its development activities and, ultimately, to
achieve profitable operations (See Note 8). These items raise substantial
doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

3. DISCONTINUED OPERATION
In April 1995, the Company dissolved the subsidiary company based in Texas. The
dissolution was approved by Texas in April 1995. For accounting purposes, the
Company has treated the dissolved subsidiary as a discontinued operation. The
results of the subsidiary have been reported separately as a component of
discontinued operations in the Statement of Operations for the periods
presented. At the time of dissolution, the Company wrote-off its investment and
assumed obligations of the subsidiary. The following is a summary of subsidiary
operation.

4. DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE OPERATIONS
Although the Company was organized in 1916, it must be regarded as being in
a formative stage due to its lack of significant business operations during
recent years. Its future success depends upon the ability to operate its
existing wells and to expand its operations. No assurance can be given that
the Company will be successful in making acquisitions.
5. GOING CONCERN.
The Company has experienced startup losses for the year ended December 31,
1994. In light of this circumstance, the ability of the Company to continue
as a going concern may be in doubt. The financial statements do not include
any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Tengasco, Inc
Knoxville, Tennessee
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Tengasco,
Inc. and subsidiary as of December 31, 1996, and the related consolidated
statements of loss, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the year then
ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used
and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit
provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Tengasco, Inc. and subsidiary as of December 31, 1996, and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the
financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from
operations and has a working capital deficiency that raise substantial
doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. In addition, as of
December 31, 1996, management estimates that additional costs of
approximately $l,200,000 are required to complete its pipeline facilities
under construction. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also
described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Summary of Organization
Significant Accounting
Policies Tengasco, Inc. (the "Company"), a
publicly held corporation, was organized
under the laws of the State of Utah on
April 18, 1916, as Gold Deposit Mining
and Milling Company. The Company
subsequently changed its name to Onasco
Companies, Inc.
On May 2, 1995, pursuant to a Purchase
and Exchange Agreement, the Company
acquired from Industrial Resources
Corporation, a Kentucky corporation
("IRC"), certain oil and gas leases,
equipment, marketable securities and
vehicles in exchange for common stock
(see Note 3).
The Company changed its domicile from the
State of Utah to the State of Tennessee
on May 5, 1995 and its name was changed
from "Onasco Companies, Inc." to
"Tengasco, Inc."
The Company's principal business consists
of oil and gas well drilling, production
and related property management in the
Appalachian region of eastern Tennessee
and eastern Kentucky. The Company's
corporate offices are in Knoxville,
Tennessee.
During 1996, the Company formed Tengasco
Pipeline Corporation, a wholly-owned
subsidiary, to manage the construction
and operation of a 23-mile gas pipeline.
Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of the Company and
Tengasco Pipeline Corporation. All
significant intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated.
Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all investments
with a maturity of three months or less
when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Oil and Gas Properties
The Company follows the full cost method
of accounting for oil and gas property
acquisition, exploration and development
activities. Under this method, all
productive and nonproductive costs
incurred in connection with the
acquisition of, exploration for and
development of oil and gas reserves for
each cost center
F-19
<PAGE>
Tengasco, Inc.
(formerly Onasco Companies, Inc.)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
are capitalized. Capitalized costs
include lease acquisitions, geological
and geophysical work, delay rentals and
the costs of drilling, completing and
equipping oil and gas wells. Gains or
losses are recognized only upon sales or
dispositions of significant amounts of
oil and gas reserves. Proceeds from all
other sales or dispositions are treated
as reductions to capitalized costs.
The capitalized costs of oil and gas
properties, plus estimated future
development costs relating to proved
reserves and estimated costs of plugging
and abandonment, net of estimated salvage
value, are amortized on the
unit-of-production method based on total
proved reserves. The costs of unproved
properties are excluded from amortization
until the properties are evaluated,
subject to an annual assessment of
whether impairment has occurred. The
costs of significant development projects
awaiting completion of pipeline
facilities are excluded from amortization
until such time as the pipeline
facilities are completed. The Company's
proved gas reserves were estimated by
Coburn Petroleum Engineering, independent
petroleum engineers, as of December 31,
1996.
The capitalized oil and gas property and
pipeline costs, less accumulated
depreciation, depletion and amortization
and related deferred income taxes, if
any, are generally limited to an amount
(the ceiling limitation) equal to the sum
of: (a) the present value of estimated
future net revenues computed by applying
current prices in effect as of the
balance sheet date (with consideration of
price changes only to the extent provided
by contractual arrangements) to estimated
future production of proved oil and gas
reserves, less estimated future
expenditures (based on current costs) to
be incurred in developing and producing
the reserves using a discount factor of
10% and assuming continuation of existing
economic conditions; and (b) the cost of
investments in unevaluated properties
excluded from the costs being amortized.
Pipeline Facilities Under Construction
Pipeline facilities under construction
are carried at cost. The Company will
provide for depreciation of the pipeline
facilities using the straight-line method
over the estimated useful life of the
asset once the pipeline is completed and
placed in service. The pipeline
facilities are expected to be completed
during the
F-20
<PAGE>
Tengasco, Inc.
(formerly Onasco Companies, Inc.)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
third quarter of 1997. Accordingly, no
depreciation expense has been recorded
for 1996 and 1995 relating to the
pipeline facilities.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are carried at
cost. The Company provides for
depreciation of property and equipment
using the straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives of the assets
which range from five to seven years.
Other Assets
Other assets consist principally of
deferred loan costs that the Company is
amortizing over the term of the
respective loans, which is six months.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in
accordance with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting
for Income Taxes" which requires the use
of the "liability method." Accordingly,
deferred tax liabilities and assets are
determined based on the temporary
differences between the financial
statement and tax bases of assets and
liabilities, using enacted tax rates in
effect for the year in which the
differences are expected to reverse.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company's primary business activities
include oil and gas sales to several
customers in the states of Tennessee and
Kentucky. The related trade receivables
subject the Company to a concentration of
credit risk within the oil and gas
industry.
Loss Per Common Share
Loss per share amounts are computed by
dividing net loss by the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding
during the year. Common stock equivalents
have not been considered because their
effect would be anti-dilutive.
F-21
<PAGE>
Tengasco, Inc.
(formerly Onasco Companies, Inc.)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Accounting Estimates
The accompanying financial statements are
prepared in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles which
requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. The actual results
could differ from those estimates.
Fair Values of Financial Instruments
Fair values of cash and cash equivalents
and short-term debt approximate cost due
to the short period of time to maturity.
Fair values of long-term debt are based
on quoted market prices or pricing models
using current market rates.
Significant Risks and Uncertainties
The Company's operations are subject to
all of the environmental and operational
risks normally associated with the oil
and gas industry. The Company maintains
insurance that is customary in the
industry; however, there are certain
risks for which the Company does not
maintain full insurance coverage. The
occurrence of a significant event that is
not fully covered by insurance could have
a significant adverse effect on the
Company's financial position.
New Accounting Pronouncements
On March 3, 1997, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 128, Earnings Per Share
(SFAS 128). This pronouncement provides a
different method of calculating earnings
per share than is currently used in
accordance with Accounting Principles
Board Opinion No. 15, Earnings Per
Share. SFAS 128 provides for the
calculation of "Basic" and "Diluted"
earnings per share. Basic earnings per
share includes no dilution and is
calculated by dividing income available
to common shareholders by the weighted
average number of common shares
outstanding for the period. Diluted
earnings per share reflects the potential
dilution of securities that could share
in the earnings of an entity, similar to
fully diluted earnings per share. The
Company will adopt SFAS
F-22

Tengasco, Inc.
(formerly Onasco Companies, Inc.)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
128 in 1997 and its implementation is not
expected to have a material effect on the
consolidated financial statements.
2. Going Concern The Company has experienced losses
totaling $1,761,064 and $1,246,481 for
the years ended December 31, 1996 and
1995, respectively, and has a working
capital deficit of $1,065,711 at December
31, 1996. These matters raise substantial
doubt about the Company's ability to
continue as a going concern. In addition,
as of December 31, 1996, management
estimates that additional costs of
approximately $1,200,000 are required to
complete its pipeline facilities under
construction. Management's plans include
raising additional capital in order to
complete the pipeline facilities and
drill additional oil and gas wells. In
addition, the Company is seeking joint
venture partners to assist in the sales
and marketing of its energy services (see
Note 14). The accompanying financial
statements do not include any adjustments
relating to the recoverability and
classifications of recorded asset
amounts or the amounts and
classifications of liabilities that might
be necessary should the Company be unable
to continue as a going concern.
3. Business Acquisition Effective May 2, 1995, the Company
acquired approximately 60% of the assets
of IRC in a reverse acquisition in which
IRC's stockholders acquired voting
control of the Company. The acquisition
was accomplished through the Company's
issuance of 4,000,000 shares of Tengasco,
Inc. common stock and a $450,000 8%
promissory note payable to IRC. The
promissory note was converted into 83,799
shares of Tengasco, Inc. common stock in
December 1995 (see Note 15). For
financial reporting purposes, the portion
of IRC'S assets involved in the
transaction is deemed to be the acquiring
entity. Since the Company had no
significant assets or operations at the

4. Related Party Transactions The Company has loans payable due to
affiliates aggregating $48,190. A major
stockholder of the Company is also a
major stockholder of the affiliates. The
loans bear interest at the rate of 8% per
annum and are due on demand.
During 1996, the Company converted
approximately $1,060,000 of debt payable
to IRC, a related party, to common stock
and common stock subscribed (see Note
15). The Company also converted
approximately $100,000 of debt payable to
a major stockholder to common stock
subscribed (see Note 15).
5. Marketable Equity Securities Marketable securities were carried at the
lower of cost or market. The marketable
securities were acquired in the Purchase
and Exchange Agreement with IRC on May 2,
1995 and consisted of 500,000 shares of
United Petroleum Corporation stock. The
United Petroleum Corporation stock had a
one-for-three reverse stock split on June
13,1995 which left the Company with
166,667 shares. The marketable securities
were written down to market in 1995,
resulting in a loss of approximately

Evaluated costs excluded from
amortization at December 31, 1996 consist
of approximately $730,000 of costs
relating the Company's Swan Creek
development project which is awaiting the
completion of a gas pipeline expected to
be completed in the third quarter of 1997.
7. Pipeline Facilities During the fourth quarter of 1996, the
Under Construction Company began construction of a 23-mile gas
pipeline which will (1) connect the Swan Creek
development project to a gas purchaser
and (2) enable the Company to develop gas
transmission business opportunities in
the future.
As of December 31, 1996, management
estimates the costs to complete the
pipeline are approximately $l,200,000.
In January 1997, the Company entered into
an agreement with the Tennessee Valley
Authority ("TVA") whereby the TVA will
allow the Company to bury the pipeline
within the TVA's transmission line
rights-of-way. In return for this right,
the Company paid $35,000 plus agreed to
annual payments of approximately $6,200
for 20 years. This agreement expires in
2017 at which time the parties may renew
the agreement for another 20 year term in
consideration of similar inflation-adjusted
payment terms.

In conjunction with the issuance of the
notes payable listed above, the Company
granted the lenders detachable stock
warrants which enable the holder to
obtain up to 200,000 shares of the
Company's common stock at a price of $5
per share.
(A) These notes had not been repaid as
of the above noted due dates. As noted
in (C) below, the Company has filed a
claim against the lenders.
(B) In March 1997, the individual note
holder (above) filed a lawsuit asserting
the Company was in default of the
$250,000 note. This action seeks the
principal amount, interest, and costs of
collection. No additional costs have
been accrued in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements in
connection with this lawsuit. Management
believes it has certain defenses to this
motion as noted in (C) below.
(C) Also in March 1997, the Company
filed a claim against the above three
lenders and a former officer of the
Company asserting that the Company did
not authorize the issuances of certain
stock warrants related to the borrowings
and seeking rescission of the warrant
agreements. The Company is disputing
the validity of the stock warrant
agreements based upon certain provisions
which were not authorized by the board
of directors. If the Company is
unsuccessful in its attempt to rescind
these stock warrant agreements, these
provisions could result in the lenders
obtaining additional shares.

The fair value of stock options used to
compute compensation expense to
non-employees is the estimated present
value at grant date using the
Black-Scholes option-pricing model with
the following weighted average
assumptions for 1996 and 1995: expected
volatility of 54% for both years; a
risk-free interest rate of 5.21% in
1996 and 6.40% in 1995; and an expected
option life of 2.45 years in 1996 and
2.25 years in 1995. The amount of
compensation expense included in general
and administrative costs in the
accompanying consolidated statements of
loss was approximately $372,000 and
$45,000 at December 31, 1996 and 1995,
respectively.
Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 123, (SFAS 123),
"Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation" was implemented in January
1996. As permitted by SFAS 123, the
Company has continued to account for
stock compensation to employees by
applying the provisions of Accounting
Principles Board Opinion No. 25. If the
accounting provisions of SFAS 123 had
been adopted, net loss and loss per share

The Company recorded a valuation
allowance at December 31, 1996 and 1995
equal to the excess of deferred tax
assets over deferred tax liabilities as
management is unable to determine that
these tax benefits are more likely than
not to be realized.
As of December 31, 1996, the Company had
net operating loss carryforwards for
federal income tax purposes of
approximately $l,995,000 which will
expire, if not utilized, as follows:
Year Amount

Additionally, at December 31, 1996, the
Company has a capital loss carryforward
of approximately $594,000 which will
expire, if not offset against a capital
gain, in 2001.
14. Subsequent Events In May 1997, the Company entered into a
term loan with an individual for
aggregate proceeds of $l,000,000 which
the Company will receive at various
times in the second and third quarters
of 1997. The Company provided the lender
with 100,000 shares of common stock as a
loan origination fee. The loan, which
is due December 31, 1997, bears interest
at 11% per annum and is secured by
equipment owned by a major shareholder
of the Company. IRC is serving as
guarantor on the loan facility. In
conjunction with the loan agreement, the
lender has an option to purchase 300,000
shares of the Company's common stock
from IRC.
In May 1997, the Company entered into a
joint venture agreement with Enserch
Energy Services, Inc. ("EES") whereby
the Company will share equally in the
gross profit from any sales to customers
the parties refer to each other for
energy services. The agreement is in
effect until 2002 at which time the
Company and EES can continue the
agreement for successive one-year terms.

promissory note to IRC (see Note 3) to
acquire approximately $l,752,000 of
assets including property, plant, and
equipment, oil and gas properties and
marketable equity securities. The
Company recorded these assets at the
lower of market or IRC's historical
cost basis, except for the marketable
equity securities which were brought
over at their lower market value.
In 1995, the Company issued
approximately 164,300 shares of common
stock to extinguish approximately
$882,000 of debt, which approximated
fair value of the shares. The

reserves represent the estimated
quantities of crude oil and natural gas
which geological and engineering data
demonstrate with reasonable certainty to
be recoverable in the future years from
known reservoirs under existing economic
and operating conditions. The reserve
information indicated below requires
substantial judgment on the part of the
reserve engineers, resulting in estimates
which are not subject to precise
determination. Accordingly, it is
expected that the estimates of reserves
will change as future production and
development information becomes available
and that revisions in these estimates
could be significant.

Estimated future net cash flows
represent an estimate of future net
revenues from the production of proved
reserves using current sales prices,
along with estimates of the operating
costs, production taxes and future
development and abandonment costs (less
salvage value) necessary to produce such
reserves. The average prices used at
December 31, 1996 and 1995 were $19.10
and $17.00 per barrel of oil and $2.94
and $l.91 per mcf of gas, respectively.
No deduction has been made for
depreciation, depletion or any indirect
costs such as general corporate overhead
or interest expense.
Operating costs and production taxes are
estimated based on current costs with
respect to producing gas properties.
Future development costs are based on
the best estimate of such costs assuming
current economic and operating
conditions.
Income tax expense is computed based on
applying the appropriate statutory tax
rate to the excess of future cash
inflows less future production and
development costs over the current tax
basis of the properties involved, less
applicable carryforwards, for both
regular and alternative minimum tax.
The future net revenue information
assumes no escalation of costs or
prices, except for gas sales made under
terms of contracts which include fixed
and determinable escalation. Future
costs and prices could significantly
vary from current amounts and,
accordingly, revisions in the future
could be significant.

PART II
INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS
Item 24 - INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS
Section 48-18-502 of the Tennessee Business Corporation Act
(the "Act") authorizes a Tennessee corporation to indemnify any director against
liability incurred in a legal proceeding if (i) he or she conducted himself or
herself in good faith; and (ii) he or she reasonably believed that his or her
conduct was in the best interest of the company or, if the conduct was not
undertaken in his or her official capacity, that it was not opposed to the
company's best interests. In the case of a criminal proceeding, the director
must have had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was
unlawful. A corporation may not indemnify a director under Section 48-18-502 in
connection with a proceeding "by or in the right of the corporation in which the
director was adjudged liable to the corporation" or in connection with any other
proceeding charging improper personal benefit to him or her, in which he or she
was adjudged liable on the basis that he or she improperly received a personal
benefit.
Unless limited by its charter, Section 48-18-503 of the Act
requires a corporation to indemnify a director who was wholly successful, on the
merits or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding to which he or she was a
party because of his or her role as director against reasonable expenses
incurred in connection with the proceeding. The Company's charter does not
provide any limitations on this right of indemnification.
Pursuant to Section 48-18-504 of the Act, the Company may
advance a director's expenses incurred in defending any proceeding upon receipt
of an undertaking and a statement of the director's good faith belief that he or
she has met the standard of conduct described in Section 48-18-502.
Section 48-18-505 permits a court, upon application of a
director, to order indemnification if it determines that the director is
entitled to mandatory indemnification under Section 48-18-503 or that be or she
is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification, whether or not he or she
met the standards set forth in Section 48-18-502.
Section 48-18-506 limits indemnification under Section
48-18-502 to situations in which either (i) the majority of a disinterested
quorum of directors; (ii) independent special legal counsel; or (iii) the
stockholders determine that indemnification
II-1
<PAGE>
is proper under the circumstances.
Unless the corporate charter provides otherwise, Section
48-18-507 extends the rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses to
officers, employees and agents. The Company's corporate charter does not provide
for any limitations on these rights of indemnification.
Regardless of whether a director, officer, employee or agent
has the right to indemnity under Section 48-18-502 or Section 48-18-503, Section
48-18-508 allows the corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on his or
her behalf against liability resulting from his or her corporate role.
Section 48-18-509 provides that the rights to indemnification
and advancement of expenses shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights
under any bylaw, agreement, stockholder vote or vote of disinterested directors;
however, no indemnification may be made where a final adjudication adverse to
the director establishes his or her liability for breach of the duty of loyalty
to the corporation or its stockholders or for acts or omissions not in good
faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law.
The Company is seeking bids from insurance companies to
provide Directors' and Executive Officers' Insurance, and has adopted the
provisions of the Act.

Management believes that all of the foregoing persons were
either "accredited investors" as that term is defined under applicable federal
and state securities laws, rules and regulations, or were persons who by virtue
of background, education and experience, either alone or through the aid and
assistance of a personal representative, could accurately evaluate the risks and
merits attendant to an investment in the securities of the Company. Further, all
such persons were provided with access to all material information regarding the
Company, prior to the offer or sale of these securities, and each had an
opportunity to ask of and receive answers from directors, executive officers,
attorneys and accountants for the Company. The offers and sales of the foregoing
securities are believed to have been exempt from the registration requirements
of Section 5 of the 1933 Act, as amended, pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof, and
from similar state securities laws, rules and regulations covering the offer and
sale of securities by available state exemptions from such registration.

Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed
by the Company under Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(n) under the Act as part of
the Registration Statement as of the time the Commission declared it effective.
(2) For determining liability under the Act, treat each
post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus as a new
registration statement for the securities offered in the registration statement,
and the offering of the securities as that time as the initial bona fide
offering of those securities.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company has been
advised in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
In the event that a claim for indemnification against such
liabilities (other than payment by the Company of expenses incurred or paid by a
director, officer or controlling person of the Company in the successful
defenses of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director,
officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel that matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the questions whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.

Re: Tengasco, Inc.
Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel to Tengasco, Inc., a Tennessee corporation
(the "Company"), in connection with a registration statement on Form SB-2 (the
"Registration Statement"), to be filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission for the purpose of registering an aggregate of 384,368 shares (the
"Shares") of common stock, $.001 par value per share (the "Common Stock") owned
by certain shareholders (collectively the "Selling Shareholders") of the Company
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act").
As counsel for the Company, we have examined and are familiar with the
Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws of the Company, and all amendments
thereto. We are also familiar with the form of the Company's stock certificate,
as well as all corporate proceedings taken by the Company in connection with the
authorization of the issuance of its Common Stock. Throughout such examination
we have assumed the genuineness of signatures and accuracy and conformity to
original documents of all copies of documents supplied to us. As to questions of
fact material to the opinion expressed herein, we have, when relevant facts were
not independently determinable, relied upon information furnished to us by
officers and directors of the Company or their duly authorized agents or
employees.
Based upon the foregoing, it is our opinion that the Shares
have been duly executed and delivered and the consideration therefor
duly paid, and such Shares are validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable and owned by the Selling Shareholders.
<PAGE>
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement.
Very truly yours,
Robson & Miller, LLP

and it understands that any opinion must be from legal counsel satisfactory
to Onasco and, regardless of any opinion, it understands that the exemption
covered by any opinion must in fact be applicable to the shares;

Re: Proposed acquisition of assets of Industrial Resource
Corporation, a Tennessee corporation ("Industrial"), by Onasco
Companies, Inc., a Utah corporation ("Onasco")
Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:
Recently, you forwarded me a retainer in the amount of $5,000 for legal
fees to be rendered in connection with the above referenced matter. Please be
advised that I represent Onasco in connection with this proposed transaction,
regardless of the fact that you have paid these fees; one of the conditions of
Onasco to this proposed transaction was that you pay my fees, which will amount
to $10,000, plus approximately $1,500 in costs, which should cover new stock
certificates, filing fees and transfer fees.
I am enclosing herewith a copy of the Notice of Special Meeting of
Stockholders of Onasco set for April 28, 1995; preliminary drafts of the
Purchase Agreement have been forwarded to you, and, subject to review by the
respective Boards of Directors of Industrial and Onasco, the Purchase Agreement
can be concluded prior to April 28.
On Closing, you will be required to pay the additional $6,500.
You are urged to have your own counsel review all documentation prepared
and submitted to you for your review.
It is my understanding that once the Purchase Agreement is concluded and
your nominees are designated to serve on the Board of Directors of Onasco, then
to be known as "Tengasco," you wish me to prepare a Confidential Limited
Offering Memorandum pursuant to which you may offer "unregistered" and
"restricted" securities of Tengasco, and a Form 10-SB Registration Statement for
filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
<PAGE>
Page 2
April 19, 1995
Fees for each of these projects can run up to $15,000, for an aggregate
total of $30,000.
I am willing to prepare both of these documents for the sum of $22,500,
which will include all broker agreements, investor questionnaires, subscription
agreements, escrow agreements and other related instruments, minutes or consents
required for the Memorandum, with the exception of compliance with applicable
Blue Sky laws, rules and regulations, which will be billed at a rate of $350 per
state in which these securities are to be offered, and if no exemption is
available in any such state, at a rate of $l75 per hour if you require
registration, plus the actual filing fee required by any such state; and all
documents, minutes or consents required or necessary to complete and file the
Form 10-SB Registration Statement, through all Securities and Exchange
Commission comments.
I will require one-half of this amount to be paid in advance, together with
$2,500 for direct costs and expenses I may incur for deposit in my trust
account.
The sooner I receive this retainer and deposit, the sooner I can begin.
Yours very sincerely,
/s/ Leonard W. Burningham

apparatus approved by the Bureau of Mines or such other apparatus as may be
mutually agreed upon.
10.8 As to gas which fails to meet the quality specifications set forth above,
Buyer, in addition to any legal remedies it may have, shall have the right to
refuse delivery of such gas.
11.0 STANDARDS FOR MEASUREMENT AND TESTS
11.1 A purchase/sales meter shall be installed, maintained and operated by
Seller at the point of delivery to measure all gas sold and/or delivered for
transportation or displacement under this agreement. The volume shall be
measured by orifice meters with linear charts, twenty-four (24) hour rotation,
or other mutually agreeable measuring devices installed and operated, and
computations made as prescribed in Gas Measurement Committee Report No. 3 of the
American Gas Association, as such report may be amended or revised from time to
time.
11.2 The unit of volume for purposes of measurement shall be one (1) cubic foot
of gas at a temperature base of sixty degrees (60) Fahrenheit and at a pressure
base of fourteen and seventy-three hundredths (14.73) pounds per square inch
absolute.
11.3 Temperature shall be determined by a recording thermometer, when
applicable, with twenty-four (24) hour chart rotation continuously used and
installed so as to record properly the temperature of the gas flowing through
the meter. The arithmetical average of the hourly temperatures recorded during
each day shall be used to calculate volumes hereunder.
11.4 Specific gravity shall be determined with accuracy to the nearest
one-thousandth (0.001) by taking samples of the gas at the point of measurement
at such times as may be designated by the parties hereto, but not more often
than once each month and having the specific gravity determined by the use of
the Acme Senior Gravity Balance, or any other instrument mutually agreed upon.
11.5 The total heating value of the gas shall be determined by joint tests made
by taking samples of gas at the point of delivery but not more than once each
month. Such samples to have the Btu content per cubic foot determined by: (1)
chromatographic analysis; or, (2) by calculation of gross heating value by
compositional analysis. Buyer and Seller may mutually agree to utilize other
7
<PAGE>
acceptable industry methods for determination of heating value. The Btu content
shall be determined for a cubic foot of gas at a temperature of sixty degrees
(60) Fahrenheit and a pressure of fourteen and seventy-three hundredths (14.73)
pounds per square inch absolute on a dry basis.
11.6 Tests to determine sulfur, hydrogen sulfide, oxygen, carbon dioxide,
nitrogen and water content shall be made by approved standard methods in general
use by the gas industry. Such tests shall be made at the request of either
party. The cost of such test are to be paid by the requesting party.
11.7 The accuracy of the measuring and testing equipment shall be verified at
least once each year and at other times upon request of Buyer or Seller. Tests
for quality of the gas may be made at the time of testing equipment or at other
times, but not more often than once each month. Notice of the time and nature of
each test shall be given to the other party sufficiently in advance to permit
convenient arrangement for a representative to be present. Tests and adjustments
shall be made in the presence of and observed by representatives of both Buyer
and Seller. All tests shall be made by Buyer at Buyer's expense, except that
Seller shall bear the expense of tests made at its request.
11.8 If at any time any of the measuring or testing equipment is found to be out
of service or registering inaccurately in any percentage, it shall be adjusted
at once to read accurately, within the limits prescribed by the manufacturer. If
such equipment is out of service, or inaccurate by an amount exceeding two
percent (2%) at a reading corresponding to the average rate of flow for the
period since the last preceding test, the previous readings of such equipment
shall be disregarded for any period definitely known or agreed upon, or if not
so known or agreed upon, for a period of fifteen (15 days) or one-half of the
elapsed time since the last test, whichever is shorter. The volume of gas
delivered during such period shall be estimated (i) by using the data recorded
by an check-measuring equipment, if installed and accurately registering, or, if
not installed or registering accurately, (ii) by correcting the error if the
percentage of error is ascertainable by calibration, test or mathematical
calculation, or, if neither such method is feasible, (iii) by estimating the
quantity or quality delivered, based upon deliveries under similar conditions
during a period when the
8
<PAGE>
equipment was registering accurately. No correction shall be made for recorded
inaccuracies of two percent (2%) or less.
11.9 Buyer and Seller shall have the right to inspect equipment installed or
furnished by the other, and the charts and other measurement or testing data of
the other, at all times during business hours, but the calibration and
adjustment of such equipment shall be done only by the party that installs or
furnishes such equipment unless otherwise agreed upon. Each party shall preserve
all original test data, charts and other similar records in such party's
possession for a period of at least two (2) years.
12.0 BILLINGS AND PAYMENTS
12.1 On or before the 15th working day of each month after deliveries of gas are
commenced, Seller shall render to Buyer an invoice for the preceding month
showing the total volume and the gross heating value of gas delivered at the
point of delivery hereunder.
12.2 Buyer will pay Seller on or before the 25th day of each month, or as to
statements rendered after the 15th day of each month, within ten (10) days after
receipt of such statements, for gas delivered during the preceding month. If the
correct amount is not paid when due and such payment is not successfully
disputed by Buyer, interest on any unpaid amount shall accrue at the rate of
nine percent (9%) per annum. If such failure to pay continues for sixty (60)
days, Seller, in addition to all other remedies, may thereafter suspend
deliveries of gas hereunder and if such default continues for thirty (30)
additional days, Seller may thereafter, in addition to any other rights Seller
may have suspend or terminate this contract. Provided, however, if Buyer in good
faith shall dispute the amount of any such invoice or part thereof and shall pay
to Seller such amounts as it concedes to be correct and shall undertake and
guarantee to make payment to Seller of the amount ultimately found due upon such
invoice after a final determination which may be reached either by agreement or
judgment of the courts, as may be the case, then Seller shall not be entitled to
suspend or terminate this contract.
12.3 Each party shall have the right to inspect and examine at all reasonable
times the records and charts of the other party pertaining to the purchase and
sale of gas hereunder. If any overcharge or
9
<PAGE>
undercharge in any amount whatsoever shall be determined within 12 months from
the date of the invoice and the invoice therefor has been paid, Seller shall
refund the amount of any overcharge or Buyer shall pay the amount of any
undercharge within thirty (30) days after the final determination thereof.
13.0 WARRANTY OF TITLE TO GAS
13.1 Seller warrants title to all gas delivered or to be delivered hereunder,
that Seller has the right to sell the same, and that such gas is free from liens
and adverse claims of every kind. Seller will pay, or cause to be paid, all
royalties, taxes and other sums due on production, gathering, severance or
handling of the gas delivered by Seller to Buyer. Seller will indemnify and save
Buyer harmless against all loss, damage and expense of every character on
account of adverse claims to the gas delivered by it or of royalties, taxes,
payments or other charges thereon applicable before or upon delivery to Buyer.
If Seller's title is questioned or involved in any action, Buyer may thereafter
refuse without penalty to accept further deliveries from Seller and/or Buyer may
withhold payment (without interest) of sums due hereunder up to the amount of
the claim until title is free from such question or such action is finally
determined, or until such time as Seller furnishes bond conditioned to save
Buyer harmless with sureties satisfactory to Buyer.

<PAGE>
11.0 STANDARDS FOR MEASUREMENT AND TESTS
11.1 A purchase/sales meter shall be installed, maintained and operated by
Seller at the point of delivery to measure all gas sold and/or delivered for
transportation or displacement under this agreement. The volume shall be
measured by orifice meters with linear charts, twenty-four (24) hour rotation,
or mutually agreeable measuring devices installed and operated, and computations
made as prescribed in Gas Measurement Committee Report No. 3 of the American Gas
Association, as such report may be amended or revised from time to time.
11.2 The unit of volume for purposes of measurement shall be one (1) cubic
foot of gas at a temperature base of sixty degrees (60 degrees) Fahrenheit and
at a pressure base of fourteen and seventy-three hundredths (14.73) pounds per
square inch absolute.
11.3 Temperature shall be determined by a recording thermometer, when
applicable, with twenty-four (24) hour chart rotation continuously used and
installed so as to record properly the temperature of the gas flowing through
the meter. The arithmetical average of the hourly temperatures recorded during
each day shall be used to calculate volumes hereunder.
11.4 Specific gravity shall be determined with accuracy to the nearest
one-thousandth (0.001) by taking samples of the gas at the point of measurement
at such times as may be designated by the parties hereto, but not more often
than once each month and having the specific gravity determined by the use of
the Acme Senior Gravity Balance, or any other instrument mutually agreed upon.
7
<PAGE>
11.5 The total heating value of the gas shall be determined by joint tests
made by taking samples of gas at the point of delivery but not more than once
each month. Such samples to have the Btu content per cubic foot determined by:
(1) chromatographic analysis; or (2) by calculation of gross heating value by
compositional analysis. Buyer and Seller may mutually agree to utilize other
acceptable industry methods for determination of heating value. The Btu content
shall be determined for a cubic foot of gas at a temperature of sixty degrees
(60 degrees) Fahrenheit and a pressure of fourteen and seventy-three (14.73)
pounds per square inch absolute on a dry basis.
11.6 Tests to determine sulfur, hydrogen sulfide, oxygen, carbon dioxide,
nitrogen and water content shall be made by approved standard methods in general
use by the gas industry. Such tests shall be made at the request of either
party. The cost of such tests are to be paid by the requesting party.
11.7 The accuracy of the measuring and testing equipment shall be verified
at least once each year and at other times upon request of Buyer or Seller.
Tests for quality of the gas may be made at the time of testing equipment or at
other times, but not more often than once each month. Notice of the time and
nature of each test shall be given to the other party sufficiently in advance to
permit convenient arrangement for a representative to be present. Tests and
adjustments shall be made in the presence of and observed by representatives of
both Buyer and Seller. All tests shall be made by Buyer at Buyer's expense,
except that Seller shall bear the
8
<PAGE>
expense of tests made at its request.
11.8 If at any time of the measuring or testing equipment is found to be
out of service or registering inaccurately in any percentage, it shall be
adjusted at once to read accurately, within the limits prescribed by the
manufacturer. If such equipment is out of service, or inaccurate by an amount
exceeding two percent (2%) at a reading corresponding to the average rate of
flow for the period since the last preceding test, the previous readings of such
equipment shall be disregarded for any period definitely known or agreed upon,
or if not so known or agreed upon, for a period of fifteen (15) days or one-half
of the elapsed time since the last test, whichever is shorter. The volume of gas
delivered during such period shall be estimated (i) by using the data recorded
by any check-measuring equipment, if installed and accurately registering, of,
if not installed or registering accurately, (ii) by correcting the error if the
percentage of error is ascertainable by calibration, test or mathematical
calculation, or, if neither such method is feasible, (iii) by estimating the
quantity or quality delivered, based upon deliveries under similar conditions
during a period when the equipment was registering accurately. No correction
shall be made for recorded inaccuracies of two percent (2%) or less.
11.9 Buyer and Seller shall have the right to inspect equipment installed
or furnished by the other, and the charts and other measurement or testing data
of the other, at all times during business hours, but the calibration and
adjustment of such
9
<PAGE>
equipment shall be done only by the party that installs or furnishes such
equipment unless otherwise agreed upon. Each party shall preserve all original
test data, charts and other similar records in such party's possession for a
period of at least two (2) years.
12.0 BILLINGS AND PAYMENTS
12.1 On or before the 15th working day of each month after deliveries of
gas are commenced, Seller shall render to Buyer an invoice for the preceding
month showing the total volume and the gross heating value of gas delivered at
the point of delivery hereunder.
12.2 Buyer will pay Seller on or before the 25th day of each month, or as
to statements rendered after the 15th day of each month, within thirty (30) days
after receipt of such statements, for gas delivered during the preceding month.
If the correct amount is not paid when due and such payment is not successfully
disputed by Buyer, interest on any unpaid amount shall accrue at the rate of
nine percent (9%) per annum. If such failure to pay continues for sixty (60)
days, Seller, in addition to all other remedies, may thereafter suspend
deliveries of gas hereunder and if such default continues for thirty (30)
additional days, Seller may thereafter, in addition to any other rights Seller
may have, suspend or terminate this contract. Provided, however, if Buyer in
good faith shall dispute the amount of any such invoice or part thereof and
shall pay to Seller such amounts as it concedes to be correct and shall
undertake and guarantee to make payment to Seller
10
<PAGE>
of the amount ultimately found due upon such invoice after a final determination
which may be reached either by agreement or judgement of the courts, as may be
the case, then Seller shall not be entitled to suspend or terminate this
contract.
12.3 Each party shall have the right to inspect and examine at all
reasonable times the records and charts of the other party pertaining to the
purchases and sale of gas hereunder. If any overcharge or undercharge in any
amount whatsoever shall be determined within 12 months from the date of the
invoice and the invoice therefor has been paid, Seller shall refund the amount
of any overcharge or Buyer shall pay the amount of any undercharge within thirty
(30) days after the final determination thereof.
13.0 WARRANTY OF TITLE TO GAS
13.1 Seller warrants title to all gas delivered or to be delivered
hereunder, that Seller has the right to sell the same, and that such gas is free
from liens and adverse claims of every kind. Seller will pay, or cause to be
paid, all royalties, taxes and other sums due on production, gathering,
severance or handling of the gas delivered by Seller to Buyer. Seller will
indemnify and save Buyer harmless against all loans, damage and expense of every
character on account of adverse claims to the gas delivered by it or of
royalties, taxes, payments or other charges thereon applicable before or upon
delivery to Buyer. If Seller's title is questioned or involved in any action,
Buyer may thereafter refuse without penalty to accept further deliveries from
Seller and/or Buyer may withhold payment (without interest) of sums due
hereunder
11
<PAGE>
up to the amount of the claim until title is free from such question or such
action is finally determined, or until such time as Seller furnishes bond
conditioned to save Buyer harmless with sureties satisfactory to Buyer.

WHEREAS, Tengasco is interested in aligning itself with Enserch in order to
develop customer leads and/or referrals to help promote Enserch's and Tengasco's
natural gas marketing efforts, under a mutually beneficial arrangement,
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the parties hereby
agree as follows:
1. Definitions
The term "Best Efforts" means the use of reasonable effort and due
diligence, but does not require the expenditure of unreasonable amount of money
or time.
The term "Market Area" shall mean the State of Tennessee.

energy commodities that may be sold from time to time by either Enserch or
Tengasco.
The term "Referred Customer(s)" shall mean those retail and wholesale Sales

purchase Products from Enserch.
The term "Sales Contact" shall mean (a) any contract for the sale of

Tengasco and a Sales Customer, and (b) any contract for the sale of Products by
either party outside the Market Area if, and only if, the parties hereto
unanimously agree in writing to designate such contract as a Sales Contract for
purposes of this agreement.
1
<PAGE>
The term "Sales Customer" shall mean (a) a customer under a Sales Contract
who is an industrial and/or commercial end-user of Products and purchases
Products for its own use and does not re-sell same ("retail customer"), and (b)
a customer under a Sales Contract purchasing Products for the purposes of resale
("wholesale customer").
2. Term
This agreement shall be effective on the date first hereinabove written and
shall continue in force and effect for a primary term ending May 31, 2002. This
Agreement shall continue in effect thereafter for successive periods of one (1)
year each unless terminated by either party at the end of the primary term or at
the end of any one (1) year period thereafter by giving at least sixty (60) days
prior written notice to the other party.
3. Scope
During the term of this Agreement, either party may enter into Sales
Contracts in the Market Area without the participation of the other party.
Further, Tengasco may refer potential Sales Customers to Enserch, and Enserch
shall use its best efforts to market natural gas owned and/or controlled by

the authority to bind the other to any agreement, and shall have no liability
associated with any Sales Contract executed by the other party.
4. Referral Services of New Accounts by Tengasco.
If and when Tengasco finds a Sales Customer that it desires to refer to
Enserch, Tengasco shall notify Enserch by telephone and follow-up fax
transmittal ("Notice of Potential Referred Customer" - form of notice attached
hereto as Exhibit "A"). The Notice of Potential Referred Customer shall specify

Tengasco shall (1) notify potential Referred Customer of Enserch's and
Tengasco's relationship and of Enserch's interest in contracting with customer
for its Products needs and (2) schedule an introductory meeting between Referred
Customer, Tengasco and Enserch.

<PAGE>
5. Marketing of Natural Gas to Referred Customers
Following acceptance by Enserch of a referral by Tengasco of a potential
Sales Customer, and prior to said introductory meeting, Enserch and Tengasco
shall meet, at a time and location agreeable to the parties, to perform the
following tasks:
o plan a sales strategy for the Referred Customer,
o establish parameters or limits on the terms of any Sales Contract and
o ascertain and agree on a recommended supply; services and pricing
program for any new Referred Customer.
Enserch shall be empowered to enter into its own separate Sales Contract
with the Referred Customer. Enserch will provide Tengasco with periodic progress
reports with respect to the negotiation of any Sales Contract with a Referred
Customer. If required, Enserch will negotiate directly with the Referred
Customer's Local Distribution Company, its agents and/or representatives, on
behalf of the Referred Customer with regard to the natural gas sales contract.
Enserch reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to accept or reject any
potential Referred Customer, and is accordingly not obligated to sell any
minimum quantity of gas under this Agreement. In addition, should the financial
responsibility of any Referred Customer under a Sales Contract with Enserch
become impaired or unsatisfactory to Enserch, in Enserch's reasonable judgment,
Enserch shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to suspend deliveries
and/or terminate any Sales Contract following written notice to the Sales
Customer and Tengasco. Enserch shall provide as much notice as practicable to
the Sales Customer and Tengasco in order that the Sales Customer and Tengasco
may acquire a substitute supply arrangement.
6. Compensation and Administration
6.1 Revenue Distribution. The party hereto which is named as a seller under
a Sales Contract shall pay to the other party hereto an amount equal to fifty
percent (50%) of the Transfer Price Margin, as hereinafter defined, resulting
from sales of Products under all Sales Contracts entered into by such selling
party, or fifty percent (50%) of the Adjusted Gross Profits, as hereinafter
defined, resulting from the sale of Products under Sales Contracts for which a
Transfer Price Margin is not determined in the ordinary course of business. No
payments shall be due from one party to the other hereunder with respect to the
sale of any Products for which payment has not been received by the seller
thereof
6.2 Definitions.
6.2.1 "Transfer Price Margin" shall be determined by Enserch, and shall
mean, for any Sales Contract, the positive difference between (a) the sales
price of the applicable Product established pursuant to the Sales Contract,
deducting my direct costs (e.g. taxes,
3
<PAGE>
hedging costs and transportation) relating to making the sale which are not
included in the offer price hereinafter described, and (b) the offer price
for such Product determined by Enserch's risk management group through
established procedures. Documentation reflecting the Transfer Price Margin
shall be furnished to Tengasco not later than five (5) business days after
the effective date of a transaction, or in the case of Sales Contracts
entered into by Tengasco, not later then five (5) business days after the
date Tengasco furnishes a detailed report of such Sales Contract to
Enserch.
6.2.2. "Adjusted Gross Profits" shall mean the amount or amounts determined
by subtracting (a) the purchase price, if any, of the Products designated
to any sale which is subject to the terms hereof, plus all additional
direct costs (but not indirect costs, such as overhead) of marketing such
Products, including, without limitation, transportation costs associated
with movement of such Products to the delivery points and all taxes which
the seller is required to bear in relation to such sale (except income
taxes), from (b) the sales price the seller actually receives for such
Products.
6.3 Net Present Value Payments. Either party may request for any executed Sales
Contract of the other party that it be paid the net present value ("NPV") of its
payments hereunder in lieu of the payments set forth above. Such request must
be made in writing. Upon receipt of such request, the parties hereto shall
attempt in good faith to agree within thirty (30) days thereafter upon the
volumes, prices, discount rate and other variable factors affecting the NPV. In
the event the parties reach such agreement, the NPV shall be paid to the party
entitled to payment within thirty (30) days thereafter. In the event the parties
fail to agree upon all the terms and conditions necessary to calculate the NPV
within thirty (30) days after receipt of the notice as set forth above, then the
payments due under the contract shall be made periodically as set forth above.
In the event there is a payment made for any Sales Contract on the basis of the
NPV, and thereafter there is a material adverse change in the volumes or price
of gas sold under such Sales Contract, the NPV shall be adjusted to reflect the
new price or volumes, as applicable, and the party that received the NPV payment
shall promptly refund to the other party the difference between the amount
received and the recalculated NPV, without interest.
6.4 Reports. Following execution of a Sales Contract, Enserch or Tengasco, as
applicable, will provide the other with detailed contract information and
account activity reports with respect to such Sales Contract. The costs of
negotiating, entering into and administering and performing under any and all
Sales Contracts shall be borne solely by the party selling Products thereunder,
and neither party shall be responsible for any losses on a sale that the other
party may incur.
Each party shall be responsible for administering any and all Sales
Contracts it enters into, including without limitation, daily balancing,
billing, and general customer service.
7. Billings and Payments
By the fifteenth (15th) day of the calendar month following each calendar
quarter in which natural gas was delivered under Sales Contracts, i.e., on or
before the 15th day of April,
4
<PAGE>
July, October and January, the selling party shall provide the other hereunder
with a written statement showing the total quantities of gas sold, the Transfer
Price Margin associated with such sales and the amount due and owing the other
party with respect to such sales.
Each shall pay to the other the stated total amount due by check, by the
twenty-fifth (25th) day of the calendar month in which the statement was
rendered, provided that if the twenty-fifth (25th) day is not a business day,
payment will be due on the next business day following that date.
Notwithstanding the above, for any billing period when money is owed by each
party to the other hereunder, the party owing the greater amount of money shall
be entitled, at its election, to effect payment by offsetting the amount due to
it by the other party against amounts due to the other party, and paying the
difference to the other party.
Compensation will be paid to by the parties on each Sales Contract so long
as this Agreement is in force and effect and so long thereafter as said Sales
Customer has remained under a Sales Contract with Enserch or Tengasco on a
continuous and uninterrupted basis from inception of such Sales Contract.
Both parties shall have the right at any reasonable time, but no more often
than once in any twelve(12) month period, after giving reasonable notice, to
examine the books and records of the other party to the extent necessary to
verify the accuracy of any statement, charge or payment made. If any such
examination reveals, or if either party discovers, any error or inaccuracy in
its own or the other party's statements, payments, calculations or
determinations, then adjustments and corrections shall be made as promptly as
practicable thereafter, provided however, that no adjustment or correction shall
be made on or with respect to any error or inaccuracy which is discovered more
than one (1) year after such statement, charge, computation or payment was made.
8. Exclusive Agreement
The parties hereto acknowledge that this is an exclusive services agreement
and that neither party may engage in similar arrangements with other parties
within the Market Area. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any
contracts entered into by either party prior to the date hereof for the sale of
Products in the Market Area shall not be subject to the provisions hereof, and
no compensation shall be due by either party to the other hereunder with respect
thereto. Further, in the event Enserch has an established Products sales
relationship with a customer with whom Tengasco does not have an existing Sales
Contract, and who has offices outside the Market Area, and that customer has
facilities within the Market Area, then Enserch may sell Products directly to
such customer's offices in the Market Area, and Tengasco shall not be entitled
to any compensation with respect to such contract.

written copy by mail. Notices should be sent to the follow designees below:

10. Change in Control
In the event of a Change in Control of Tengasco, as defined in Exhibit "B",
attached hereto and made a part hereof, or in the event of a sale of all or
substantially all of Tengasco's assets, Tengasco shall, at the election of
Enserch, either (a) cause the acquiring or continuing entity of Tengasco to
assume all the obligations of this contract or (b) purchase Enserch's rights
under this contract for an amount equal to four (4) times the NPV of all Sales
Contracts entered into by Tengasco and Enserch hereunder. In the event Enserch
elects to have Tengasco purchase Enserch's rights under this contract, this
contract shall terminate, and each party hereto shall retain its rights to any
Sales Contracts under which it is a seller. Further, in the event of a sale of
all or substantially all of Tengasco's assets to an unrelated third party,
Tengasco shall notify Enserch of any bona fide offer to purchase such assets and
Enserch shall have the right of first refusal, to be exercised within thirty
(30) days after receipt of Tengasco's notice, to purchase such assets under the
same terms and conditions as are contained in such offer.
For purposes of this Section 10 only, in the event the parties are unable
to agree upon the NPV, the matter shall be settled by a major independent public
accounting firm selected by mutual agreement of the parties. In the event the
parties cannot agree upon the selection of a major independent public accounting
firm, such firm shall be selected by Enserch from a list of four major
independent accounting firms which have not represented either Enserch, Tengasco
or their affiliates within the five year period preceding such selection. The
decision of such accounting firm shall be final and binding, and the costs
incurred in connection with retaining such accounting firm shall be shared
equally by Tengasco and Enserch.

Agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter thereof.

unless reduced to writing and executed by both parties.
11.4 The rights and obligations under this Agreement shall inure to and be
binding upon the permitted successors and assigns of the parties hereto. No

which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

must be disclosed to a third party for the purpose of effectuating
transportation of gas subject to the terms of this Agreement or to meet New York
Mercantile Exchange requirements or regulatory filing requirements where
necessary. Further, it is recognized that in connection with performance under
this agreement, Enserch may disclose to Tengasco certain other information or
material which it considers confidential or proprietary (the "Confidential
Information"), which Enserch shall identify as such at the time of the
disclosure. Tengasco shall treat Confidential Information confidentially and

be liable for any breach of these provisions by any such party.

RE: Tengasco, Inc.

Dear Mr. Follmar:
Pursuant to your request, I have evaluated the oil and gas properties of

Required Future Investment..........................................$ 5,775,000
The investment figure above includes the remaining cost of building a pipeline
to the Swan Creek Field. Costs of the pipeline will be recovered by a gathering
charge accounted for by adjusting the gas price to be received by producing gas
wells in the in the Swan Creek Field. The large increase in reserves over the
report as of December 31, 1995 is due to acquisition and development of the Swan
Creek Field in Hancock County Tennessee. A discussion of this field as well as
the Burning Springs, Beech Creek, and Fentress properties has been covered in
reports previously submitted to you.
Details by properties are shown in the following tables. All of the oil and gas
properties are located in the states of Kentucky and Tennessee. In the absence

best judgement was used to estimate future operating costs. Well costs are based
on drilling costs in the area.
Reserve and future performance estimates were prepared utilizing standard
petroleum engineering methods. These methods include decline curve analysis,
volumetric calculations, pressure history, analogy, various correlations and
technical judgment. Reserve definitions conform to the Securities and Exchange
Commission Guidelines.
Information was obtained from interest owners, State Regulatory Agencies,
commercial services, outside operators and our files.
Information furnished is accepted as true and correct. Changes in economic
conditions, reservoir performance, and unforeseen mechanical problems will
likely make it necessary to make future reserve revisions.
