                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                                   (Unaudited)

(1)      ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         Petroglyph Energy, Inc. ("Petroglyph" or the "Company") was
incorporated in Delaware in April 1997 for the purpose of consolidating and
continuing the activities previously conducted by Petroglyph Gas Partners, L.P.
("PGP" or the "Partnership"). PGP was a Delaware limited partnership, which was
organized on April 15, 1993 to acquire, explore for, produce and sell oil,
natural gas and related hydrocarbons. The sole general partner of PGP was
Petroglyph Energy, Inc., a Kansas corporation ("PEI"). Petroglyph Gas Partners
II, L.P. ("PGP II") was a Delaware limited partnership, which was organized on
April 15, 1995 to acquire, explore for, produce and sell oil, natural gas and
related hydrocarbons. The sole general partner of PGP II was PEI (1% interest)
and the sole limited partner was PGP (99% interest). Pursuant to the terms of an
Exchange Agreement dated August 22, 1997 (the "Exchange Agreement"), the Company
acquired all of the outstanding partnership interests of the Partnership and all
of the stock of PEI in exchange for shares of common stock of the Company (the
"Conversion"). The Conversion and other transactions contemplated by the
Exchange Agreement were consummated on October 24, 1997, immediately prior to
the closing of the initial public offering of the Company's common stock (the
"Offering"). The Conversion was accounted for as a transfer of assets and
liabilities between affiliates under common control in October 1997 and resulted
in no change in carrying values of these assets and liabilities. Effective June
30, 1998, PGP, PGP II, and PEI were dissolved and the assets and liabilities and
results of operations were rolled up into the Company with no change in carrying
values.

         On August 18, 1999, III Exploration Company, an Idaho corporation ("III
Exploration"), completed the purchase (the "Purchase") from Robert A.
Christensen, a director and executive officer of the Company, David R. Albin, a
director of the Company, Kenneth A. Hersh, a director of the Company, R. Gamble
Baldwin, John S. Foster, Bruce B. Selkirk, III, Albin Income Trust, Natural Gas
Partners, L.P., Natural Gas Partners II, L.P. and Natural Gas Partners III, L.P.
(collectively, the "Sellers") of 2,753,392 shares of common stock, $.01 par
value of the Company. III Exploration is controlled by Intermountain Industries,
Inc., an Idaho corporation ("Intermountain"). As a result of the Purchase,
Intermountain, through its ownership of III Exploration, acquired approximately
50.4% of the outstanding common stock of the Company (the "Change of Control").

         On December 28, 1999, the Company sold 1,000,000 shares of common stock
to III Exploration in a privately negotiated sale at a purchase price of $2.00
per share (the "Private Placement"). As a result of the Purchase and the Private
Placement, Intermountain, through its ownership of III Exploration, owns
approximately 59.1% of the outstanding common stock of the Company (assuming the
exercise of a warrant to purchase 150,000 shares of common stock issued in
connection with the sale of subordinated notes).

         The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Petroglyph
include the assets, liabilities and results of operations of its wholly owned
subsidiary, Petroglyph Operating Company, Inc. ("POCI"). POCI is a subchapter C
corporation. POCI is the designated operator of all wells for which the Company
has acquired operating rights. Accordingly, all producing overhead and
supervision fees were charged to the joint accounts by POCI. All material
intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the preparation
of the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

         The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Petroglyph, with
the exception of the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 1999, have not
been audited by independent public accountants. In the opinion of the Company's
management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all
adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position at June 30, 2000,
and the related results of operations for the periods ended June 30, 2000 and
1999. These interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full
year.

         The Company's operations are primarily focused in the Uinta Basin of
Utah and the Raton Basin of Colorado with additional operations in DeWitt and
Victoria Counties in South Texas.

         Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted in this Form 10-Q pursuant to the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

(2)      SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

         On May 3, 2000, the Company received a proposal from Intermountain to
purchase the approximately 2.7 million shares of common stock of Petroglyph that
it does not already indirectly own through III Exploration for $2.20 per share.
In response to the offer, an independent committee of the Petroglyph Board of
Directors was formed (the "Special Committee"). The Special Committee was
authorized by the Board of Directors to employ counsel and a financial advisor
to evaluate the fairness of the offer, consider alternatives and handle all
negotiations with Intermountain concerning the proposed purchase of the shares.

         At a meeting of the Board of Directors held on June 20, 2000, the
Special Committee reported to the Board of Directors that, after negotiations
between the Special Committee and representatives of Intermountain,
Intermountain had increased its offer to $2.85 per share, and the Special
Committee recommended that the Board of Directors approve the terms of a
proposed merger agreement. The merger agreement was approved by the Board,
subject to stockholder approval, and executed on June 20, 2000.

         As previously reported, the funding of the Company's 2000 development
plans was dependent upon its ability to realize proceeds from future asset
sales, replace its existing credit facility, raise equity capital and increase
its operating cash flow, whether as a result of successful operations in the
Uinta Basin and Raton Basin or from acquisitions. The Company's inability to
obtain such funds has forced the Company to delay its 2000 development plans.
During the first quarter of 2000, the Company continued its pursuit of finding
additional sources of financing, including selling assets and refinancing its
senior credit facility or replacing its senior lender; however, the Company has
been unsuccessful.

         Additionally, on May 30, 2000, the Company was formally notified that
The Chase Manhattan Bank ("Chase") had redetermined the borrowing base under the
Company's credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement"), resulting in a reduction to
$9.0 million. As a result of that redetermination, under the Credit Agreement
the Company had 90 days to reduce the outstanding balance from $11.0 million to
$9.0 million. The Company did not have sufficient cash to pay down the $2
million required by Chase in connection with the redetermination. Since the
Company also had no assurance that Chase would provide the Company with a waiver
if it was unable to reduce the balance by August 28, 2000, the Company asked III
Exploration to provide the Company with financial assistance, which it
subsequently agreed to do. As a result of its discussions with III Exploration,
the Company authorized III Exploration to contact Chase regarding a possible
guarantee of the Company's obligations under the Credit Agreement. Chase refused
to accept III Exploration's guarantee and encouraged III Exploration to purchase
the loan from Chase. As a result, on July 14, 2000, III Exploration's parent
company, Intermountain, purchased at par the outstanding indebtedness and
assumed Chase's rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement. Intermountain
did not change any of the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement but,
following the closing of that transaction loaned the Company an additional $2.0
million to meet its current obligations. The Company has been advised that this
advance was made in anticipation of the successful completion of the proposed
merger with III Exploration and was specifically intended to preserve the
Company's asset values for the period of time after the merger. The Company was
further advised that any future advances that Intermountain may consider will
only be made if Intermountain believes they are necessary to preserve the
Company's asset values.

         On June 8, 2000, the Company received $800,000 from III Exploration
under the terms of an Agreement and Bill of Sale and Assignment of Proceeds,
which assigned to III Exploration the rights from proceeds of oil and natural
gas sales. The funds were used to cover past due accounts payable and hedge
obligations. On July 28, 2000, $1 million was advanced from III Exploration
under a similar assignment agreement to provide needed working capital until
additional long-term financing could be arranged. Both advances were repaid from
the proceeds of oil and natural gas sales.

         The Company has been advised that III Exploration intends to vote all
of the shares of the Company's common stock in favor of the proposed merger with
a subsidiary of III Exploration. As a result, the Company anticipates that the
transaction will be approved. If however the merger is not completed for any
reason, the Company will likely not be able to meet its credit obligations
originally provided for under the Credit Agreement, which III Exploration's
affiliate purchased, nor carry out its 2000 development plan since there can be
no assurance that any additional financing will be available to the Company on
acceptable terms or at all.

(3)      LONG-TERM DEBT

         Effective September 30, 1998, the Company entered into the Credit
Agreement with Chase. The Credit Agreement established a credit facility for the
Company of up to $50 million with a two-year revolving line and a borrowing base
to be redetermined quarterly. The revolving credit facility expires on September
30, 2000, at which time all outstanding balances will convert to a term loan
expiring on September 30, 2003. Interest on outstanding borrowings is
calculated, at the Company's option, at either Chase's prime rate or the London
Interbank Offer Rate plus a margin determined by the amount outstanding under
the facility.

         In order to finance the acquisition of the remaining 50% working
interest in the Antelope Creek Field in the Uinta Basin of Utah (the "Antelope
Creek Acquisition") from its non-operated working interest partner, the Company
entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Credit Agreement with Chase, dated as of
August 20, 1999, pursuant to which the Company borrowed an additional $2.5
million.

         During August 1999, in conjunction with the Antelope Creek Acquisition,
the borrowing base was increased to $11.0 million and the quarterly
redetermination scheduled for September 30, 1999 was waived. The redetermination
scheduled for December 31, 1999 resulted in no change to the borrowing base. The
next redetermination was scheduled to occur on or before March 31, 2000.

         At March 31, 2000, the Company was out of compliance with both the
minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and minimum current ratio covenants as
provided in the Credit Agreement. Chase granted a one-time waiver of default
with respect to such covenants.

         On May 30, 2000, the Company was formally notified that Chase had
redetermined the borrowing base, resulting in a reduction in the borrowing base
to $9.0 million. As a result of that redetermination, under the Credit
Agreement, the Company had 90 days to reduce the outstanding balance from $11.0
million to $9.0 million. On July 14, 2000, Intermountain, purchased at par the
outstanding indebtedness and assumed Chase's rights and obligations under the
Credit Agreement and did not change any of the terms and conditions of the
Credit Agreement. Following the closing of that transaction, Intermountain
loaned the Company an additional $2.0 million to meet its current obligations.

         In August 1999, the Company sold $5 million of 8% senior subordinated
notes due 2004 (the "Notes") to III Exploration. The Notes required the Company
to deliver to III Exploration a stock purchase warrant to acquire 150,000 shares
of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $3.00 per share and the
ability for III Exploration to obtain additional stock purchase warrants over
the life of the Notes. The number of future stock purchase warrants will be
based on the future stock price performance and the amount and duration of the
Notes outstanding. The maximum number of shares of common stock issuable under
the stock purchase warrants for any given period is limited to 250,000 shares in
any one year, 400,000 over the first three years and 750,000 over the five-year
life of the notes. The Company may redeem the Notes at par without penalty at
any time. Upon redemption of the Notes, any remaining unissued and unearned
stock purchase warrants will expire. The Company utilized proceeds from the
Notes to finance the remaining purchase price of the Antelope Creek Acquisition
and for working capital needs.

         At June 30, 2000, the Company remained out of compliance with both the
minimum fixed charge coverage ratio (1.25 to 1) and the minimum current ratio (1
to 1) covenants as provided in the Credit Agreement. The Company had a fixed
charge ratio of (.07) and a current ratio of .18. Accordingly, the debt
outstanding under the Credit Agreement is classified as current in the
consolidated balance sheet. As a result of the Company's default under financial
covenants in the Credit Agreement, the Company is also in default under the
Notes pursuant to the cross default provisions of the Note Agreement and has
classified the Notes as current in the consolidated balance sheet. The Company
has been advised that Intermountain has no intention of declaring the default or
calling the Notes or the Credit Agreement at this time.

(4)      COMMITMENTS

         The Company has hedged a portion of its future production with crude
oil collars based on a floor price and a ceiling price indexed to the NYMEX
light crude future settlement price. Oil hedge contracts currently in place are:

</TABLE>


         The Company uses price hedging arrangements and fixed price natural gas
sales contracts as described above to reduce price risk on a portion of its oil
and natural gas production.

         In September 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. SFAS No. 133 establishes
accounting and reporting standards requiring that every derivative instrument be
recorded in the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its
fair market value. SFAS No. 133 requires that changes in the derivative's fair
value be recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting
criteria are met. Special accounting for qualifying hedges allows a derivative's
gains and losses to offset related results on the hedged item in the income
statement, and requires that a company must formally document, designate and
assess the effectiveness of transactions that receive hedge accounting. SFAS No.
133 is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. With its
current hedge contracts, management believes SFAS No. 133 will not have a
material affect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

         During July 1998, the Company entered into an agreement with Colorado
Interstate Gas Company ("CIG") whereby CIG agreed to install approximately 37
miles of 10-inch steel pipeline from near Trinidad, Colorado to the Company's
Raton Basin coalbed methane development area approximately 6 miles southwest of
Walsenburg, Colorado. The pipeline was placed in service in January 1999 with a
delivery capacity of approximately 50 MMcf per day and would provide the Company
primary access to mid-continent markets for its future coalbed methane
production. The Company has committed to pay CIG a minimum transportation charge
equivalent to $0.325 per Mcf for the daily agreed volumes described below less
$0.02 per Mcf for any unused transportation capacity beginning February 1, 1999
and ending January 31, 2111. The commitment begins at a minimum volume of 2,000
Mcf per day and increases after each three-month period by 1,000 Mcf per day,
with a maximum commitment of 10,000 Mcf per day. At the end of the first
two-year period the Company has the option to: 1) continue the agreement with a
minimum volume of 16,000 Mcf per day, 2) increase the minimum volume to 32,000
Mcf per day, or 3) eliminate the commitment. The cost of eliminating the
commitment is the cost of the pipeline ($6.4 million) less a credit applied for
the Company's Raton Basin commercial gas production up to 16,000 Mcf per day.
This cost could be applied as a credit to transportation elsewhere on CIG's
system. The Company can reduce the minimum monthly commitment by selling its
available pipeline capacity at market rates. Net commitment fees paid to CIG
totaling $145,818 and $301,107 for the three-month and six-month periods ending
June 30, 2000, are reflected as lease operating expense in the Company's
consolidated statements of operations.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
        RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

         Petroglyph is an independent energy company engaged in the exploration,
development and acquisition of crude oil and natural gas properties. The
Company's strategy is to increase its reserves, production and cash flow through
(i) the development of its drillsite inventory, (ii) the exploitation of its
existing reserve base, (iii) the control of operations of its core properties,
(iv) the acquisition of additional property interests, and (v) the development
of a financial position that affords the Company the financial flexibility to
execute its business strategy.

OPERATING DATA

        The following table sets forth certain operating data of the Company for

(1)     Before deduction of production taxes.
(2)     Excluding the effects of crude oil hedging transactions, the weighted
        average sales price per Bbl of oil was $25.49 and $11.38 for the three
        six months, and $25.24 and $14.07 for the three months ended June 30,
        2000 and 1999, respectively.

 Bbl -  Barrel
 Mcf -  Thousand cubic feet
 BOE -  Barrels of oil equivalent (six Mcf equal one Bbl)

         The Company uses the successful efforts method of accounting for its
oil and natural gas activities. Costs to acquire mineral interests in oil and
natural gas properties, to drill and equip exploratory wells that result in
proved reserves, and to drill and equip development wells are capitalized. Costs
to drill exploratory wells that do not result in proved reserves, costs of
geological, geophysical and seismic testing, and costs of carrying and retaining
properties that do not contain proved reserves are expensed. Costs of
significant nonproducing properties, wells in the process of being drilled and
development projects are excluded from depletion until such time as the related
project is developed and proved reserves are established or impairment is
determined.

         One gross (.5 net) well was plugged and abandoned in South Texas during
the six months ended June 30, 2000. This compares with no wells drilled or
completed during the six months ended June 30, 1999.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         Three Months Ended June 30, 2000 Compared to Three Months Ended June
30, 1999

         OPERATING REVENUES

         Operating revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2000, increased 71%
to $1,655,000 compared to $970,000 for the same period in 1999. Oil prices
during the second quarter of 2000 increased $3.72 (26%) to $17.79 per barrel
compared to the second quarter of 1999. This price includes a hedge loss of
$7.23 per barrel in 2000 compared to a hedge loss of $0.31 per barrel in 1999.
Gas prices per Mcf after hedge impact declined 10% to $1.75 per Mcf. The 2000
gas price included a hedge loss of $0.93 per Mcf for the quarter. There was no
gas hedge effect in the 1999 period.

         Oil sales volumes increased 94%, or 40,234 barrels, to 83,113 barrels
for the quarter ended June 30, 2000, compared to the same period in 1999. The
2000 volumes include 35,072 barrels attributable to the purchase of 50% working
interest in Antelope Creek in August 1999 and 12,971 barrels from the III
Exploration acquisition in the fourth quarter of 1999. Gas sales volumes fell
30% to 110,470 Mcf for the second quarter of 2000 compared to 157,506 Mcf for
the second quarter of 1999. Sales of 34,079 Mcf, added by the III Exploration
properties, were more than offset by declines of 142,154 Mcf (68%) in Texas.
Utah gas sales volumes were reduced 101,446 Mcf (60%) between periods, which was
attributed to normal gas production declines associated with increased reservoir
pressure due to waterflood activity inhibiting free gas from breaking out of the
oil solution.

         OPERATING EXPENSES

         Lease operating expense for the second quarter of 2000 was $697,000
(155%) greater than the comparable period in 1999. Second quarter 2000 lease
operations included significant categories of cost totaling $750,000, which were
not present in the 1999 period: $100,000 in compressor rentals attributable to
the sale of compression facilities in Antelope Creek and Texas in 1999, $446,000
representing lease operating expenses for 50% of Antelope Creek Field purchased
in 1999, $49,000 in lease operating expenses on properties acquired from III
Exploration, and $155,000 in CIG commitment fees. As a result of these
increases, average LOE rose $4.80 to $11.30 per barrel.

         Severance taxes increased 248% to $223,000 for the second quarter of
2000 compared to $64,000 for the same period of 1999. This increase is in step
with the increase in the value of oil and gas sales between periods before the
effect of hedge losses and gains.

         Depreciation, depletion, and amortization charges for the second
quarter of 2000 increased $101,730 (27%) to $477,762 compared to the second
quarter of 1999. These charges are calculated on oil and gas sales volumes,
which were greater in the 2000 period. Depreciation, depletion, and amortization
expense per barrel declined $.73 (13%) between periods.

         Second quarter 2000 general and administrative expense increased 111%
to $908,000 compared to the same period in 1999. Merger expenses of $434,000
account for 101% of the increase.

         OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE)

         Other revenue and expense, primarily net gas transportation costs,
declined to a $16,932 loss for the second quarter of 2000 from $62,000 income
for the same period of 1999. Third party gas for transport declined
significantly in both Texas and the Uinta Basin in the second quarter of 2000
and transportation revenues in Texas were significantly less than transportation
costs.

         Net interest expense for the second quarter of 2000 was $301,000,
compared to net interest expense of $128,000 for second quarter 1999. This
reflects the increase in corporate debt between periods.

         The Company recorded no tax benefit in the second quarter, compared to
tax expense in the second quarter of 1999 of $156,000. The tax expense in 1999
was primarily the result of a gain from the sale of compressors.

         Six Months Ended June 30, 2000 Compared to Six Months Ended
June 30, 1999

         OPERATING REVENUES

         Oil revenues of $3,146,000 for the first six months of 2000 were 158%
above oil revenues for the first half of 1999. The volume of oil sold increased
78,900 barrels (84%) compared to the same period in 1999, due to the acquisition
of the remaining 50% working interest in Antelope Creek and oil sales from the
Property Acquisition of III Exploration. The Company's average realized oil
price increased 40% to $18.25 per barrel in the first half of 2000 from $13.05
for the same period in 1999.

         Gas volumes in the first half of 2000 decreased 32% to 222,386 Mcf
compared to 329,004 Mcf for the same period in 1999. Gas volumes in the Antelope
Creek Field decreased in tandem with oil volumes. Gas sales from wells drilled
in the Helen Gohlke Field in 1999 also declined compared to the same period in
1999. The average sales price for the first half of 2000 declined $0.06 to $1.84
(hedge adjusted) compared to $1.90 for the same period in 1999. The overall
result was a 35% decrease in gas revenues to $409,000 in the first half of 2000
compared to $625,000 in 1999.

         OPERATING EXPENSES

         Lease operating expenses through June 30, 2000 were $1,458,000, or 153%
greater than for the first six months of 1999, due primarily to the acquisition
of the remaining 50% working interest in Antelope Creek, the Property
Acquisition of III Exploration and the CIG commitment fees. Lease operating
costs rose 79% to $11.50 per BOE for the first half of 2000 compared to $6.41
for the same period in 1999.

         Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense for the first half of
2000 was $987,000 compared to $825,000 through June 30, 1999. Decline in sales
volume during the period caused depreciation, depletion and amortization expense
to decrease 15% to $4.71 per BOE for the first six months of 2000 compared with
$5.56 per BOE for the first half of 1999.

         General and administrative expense increased $444,000 (49%) to
$1,348,000 for the first half of 2000 compared to the same period in 1999 due
primarily to merger related costs.

         OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE)

         Net interest expense for the first half of 2000 was $584,000 compared
to $197,000 net interest expense for the same period in 1999.

         Gain on sales of equipment decreased from $877,000 in the first half of
1999 to $46,000 for the first half of 2000. During the first half of 2000, the
Company realized cash of $77,374 from the sale of surplus inventory, while in
the first half of 1999 compressors were sold for $1,393,000.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         CASH FLOW AND WORKING CAPITAL

         Cash provided by operating activities was $315,000 during the first
half of 2000. Accounts receivable, principally oil and gas receivables increased
$379,000. Current payables accounted for $1,778,000 of the cash flow. In
addition, $15,884,000, representing the total amount of the Company's
outstanding debt, was reclassified from long-term liabilities to Current Portion
of Long-Term Debt. As of June 30, 2000, the Company was out of compliance with
both the current ratio and the fixed charge coverage ratio covenants provided in
the Credit Agreement. On July 14, 2000, Intermountain purchased at par the Chase
loan. Because the Company is in default under the Credit Agreement, and
because it converts in December 2000 to a term loan requiring quarterly
principal payments of approximately $916,666 and no alternative financing is
imminent, the total amount of the debt is classified as current. However on July
17, 2000, Intermountain advanced under the Credit Agreement $2 million to the
Company to cover current working capital requirements. The Company has been
advised that this advance was made in anticipation of the successful completion
of the merger and was specifically intended to preserve the Company's asset
values for the period of time after the merger. The Company has also been
advised that any future advances that Intermountain may consider will


                                       11
<PAGE>   14


only be made if Intermountain believes they are necessary to preserve the
Company's asset values for the period of time after the merger.

         CAPITAL EXPENDITURES

         During the first half of 2000, the Company converted one gross and net
producing well in the Antelope Creek Field to water injection status. Depending
on available capital the Company intends to spend up to $6.0 million converting
as many as 26 wells to water injection status and drilling up to eight new wells
during the remainder of 2000 to increase the field-wide water injection pattern
and enhance production.

         In the first half of 2000, the Company completed three gross and (three
net) wells previously drilled in the Bear Creek area of the Raton Prospect. The
2000 development plan calls for drilling two additional wells in the Pilot
Project/Little Creek area and three wells in the Bear Creek area and complete
three previously drilled wells for total costs of $2.3 million.

         During the first half of 2000, the Company plugged and abandoned one
gross (.5 net) well in the Helen Gohlke Field in Victoria and Dewitt Counties,
Texas. This property, which is non-core to the Company's reserve development
strategy, is currently offered for sale.

         On February 18, 2000, the Company exchanged 250,000 shares of Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock for non-operated working interests in oil and gas
properties owned by III Exploration and primarily located in the Uinta Basin of
Utah. The Company anticipates that the Property Acquisition of III Exploration
will provide cash flow of approximately $900,000 during the first year and that
proved developed producing reserves will increase 15%, or 400,000 BOE, from
December 31, 1999 levels.

         FINANCING

         As previously reported, the funding of the Company's 2000 development
plans was dependent upon its ability to realize proceeds from future asset
sales, replace its existing credit facility, raise equity capital and increase
its operating cash flow, whether as a result of successful operations in the
Uinta Basin and Raton Basin or from acquisitions. The Company's inability to
obtain such funds has forced the Company to delay its 2000 development plans.
During the first quarter of 2000, the Company has continued its pursuit of
finding additional sources of financing, including selling assets and
refinancing its senior credit facility or replacing its senior lender; however
the Company has been unsuccessful.

         Additionally, on May 30, 2000, the Company was formally notified that
Chase had redetermined the borrowing base under the Credit Agreement, resulting
in a reduction to $9.0 million. As a result of that redetermination, under the
Credit Agreement the Company had 90 days to reduce the outstanding balance from
$11.0 million to $9.0 million. The Company did not have sufficient cash to pay
down the $2 million required by Chase in connection with the redetermination.
Since the Company also had no assurance that Chase would provide the Company
with a waiver if it was unable to reduce the balance by August 28, 2000, the
Company asked III Exploration to provide the Company with financial assistance,
which it subsequently agreed to do. As a result of its discussions with III
Exploration, the Company authorized III Exploration to contact Chase regarding a
possible guarantee of the Company's obligations under the Credit Agreement.
Chase refused to accept III Exploration's guarantee and encouraged III
Exploration to purchase the loan from Chase. As a result, on July 14, 2000, III
Exploration's parent company, Intermountain, purchased at par the outstanding
indebtedness and assumed Chase's rights and obligations under the Credit
Agreement. Intermountain did not change any of the terms and conditions of the
Credit Agreement but, following the closing of that transaction loaned the
Company an additional $2.0 million to meet its current obligations. The Company
has been advised that this advance was made in anticipation of the successful
completion of the proposed merger with III Exploration and was specifically
intended to preserve the Company's asset values for the period of time after the
merger. The Company was further advised that any future advances that
Intermountain may consider will only be made if Intermountain believes they are
necessary to preserve the Company's asset values.

         On June 8, 2000, the Company received $800,000 from III Exploration
under the terms of an Agreement and Bill of Sale and Assignment of Proceeds,
which assigned to III Exploration the rights from proceeds of oil and natural
gas sales. The funds were used to cover past due accounts payable and hedge
obligations. On July 28, 2000, $1 million was advanced from III Exploration
under a similar assignment agreement to provide needed working capital until
additional long-term financing could be arranged. Both advances were repaid from
the proceeds of oil and natural gas sales.

         The Company has been advised that III Exploration intends to vote all
of the shares of the Company's common stock in favor of the proposed merger with
a subsidiary of III Exploration. As a result, the Company anticipates that the
transaction will be approved. If however the merger is not completed for any
reason, the Company will likely not be able to meet its credit obligations
originally provided for under the Credit Agreement, which III Exploration's
affiliate purchased, nor carry out its 2000 development plan since there can be
no assurance that any additional financing will be available to the Company on
acceptable terms or at all.

         In August 1999, the Company sold $5 million of 8% senior subordinated
notes due 2004 (the "Notes") to III Exploration. The Notes required the Company
to deliver to III Exploration a stock purchase warrant to acquire 150,000 shares
of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $3.00 per share and the
ability for III Exploration to obtain additional stock purchase warrants over
the life of the Notes. The number of future stock purchase warrants will be
based on the future stock price performance and the amount and duration of the
Notes outstanding. The maximum number of shares of common stock issuable under
the stock purchase warrants for any given period is limited to 250,000 shares in
any one year, 400,000 over the first three years and 750,000 over the five-year
life of the notes. The Company may redeem the Notes at par without penalty at
any time. Upon redemption of the Notes, any remaining unissued and unearned
stock purchase warrants will expire. The Company utilized proceeds from the
Notes to finance the remaining purchase price of the Antelope Creek Acquisition
and for working capital needs.

         At June 30, 2000, the Company was out of compliance with both the
minimum fixed charge coverage ratio (1.25 to 1) and the minimum current ratio (1
to 1) covenants as provided in the Credit Agreement. The Company had a fixed
charge ratio of (.07) and a current ratio of .18. Accordingly, the debt
outstanding under the Credit Agreement is classified as current in the
consolidated balance sheet. As a result of the Company's non-compliance with
financial covenants in the Credit Agreement, the Company is also in default
under the Notes pursuant to the cross default provisions of the Note Agreement
and has classified the Notes as current in the consolidated balance sheet.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

         At June 30, 2000, the Company currently has oil and gas hedge contracts
in place as further described in Note 4 (Commitments) to Consolidated Financial
Statements. These arrangements could be classified as derivative commodity
instruments subject to commodity price risk. The Company uses hedging contracts
to manage its price risk and limit exposure to short-term fluctuations in
commodity prices. However, should NYMEX oil prices rise above the ceiling prices
in effect for the periods mentioned above, the Company would not receive the
marginal benefit of oil prices in excess of the ceiling prices.

         Additionally, the Company is subject to interest rate risk, as $11.0
million owed at June 30, 2000, under the Company's revolving credit facility
accrues interest at floating rates tied to LIBOR. The Company's current average
rate is approximately 9.234%, locked in for 90-day terms.

         The Company performed a sensitivity analysis to assess the potential
effect of commodity price risk and interest rate risk and determined that the
effect, if any, of reasonably possible near-term changes in NYMEX oil prices or
interest rates on the Company's financial position, results of operations and
cash flow should not be material.
