                            CANAAN ENERGY CORPORATION
                          Notes to Financial Statements


1.   ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     Canaan Energy Corporation (Canaan) is engaged primarily in the acquisition,
     development and production of oil and natural gas properties. Canaan serves
     as operator for approximately 110 producing oil and natural gas wells
     located in Oklahoma.

     Canaan also manages eight oil and natural gas limited partnerships (the
     Coral Limited Partnerships) on behalf of Coral Reserves, Inc. and Coral
     Reserves Energy Corporation, the general partners of the Coral Limited
     Partnerships (the General Partners). Canaan and the General Partners have
     the same ownership.

     Canaan, the Coral Limited Partnerships, the General Partners and Canaan
     Securities, Inc. (CSI), an unaffiliated broker/dealer which has previously
     participated in marketing of the limited partnership interests, are in the
     process of merging (subject to the approval of all parties), whereby the
     Coral Limited Partnerships, the General Partners and CSI will merge with
     and into Canaan for shares of Canaan's common stock. The merger with the
     Coral Limited Partnerships and the General Partners is expected to be
     accounted for as a reorganization of interests in a manner similar to a
     pooling of interests and the merger with CSI is expected to be accounted
     for as a purchase. Additionally, on February 15, 1999 Canaan entered into
     an agreement and plan of merger with Indian Oil Company (Indian), an
     unaffiliated oil and natural gas company. Under the agreement, Indian will
     merge with and into Canaan for shares of Canaan's common stock in a
     business combination. Canaan filed a registration statement with the SEC
     on Form S-4, File No. 333-30322 relating to these transactions, which
     became effective on August 14, 2000. The completion of all the above
     transactions (the "Combination Transactions") is anticipated in October,
     2000, at which time Canaan's common stock is expected to be traded on the
     NASDAQ National Market System under the symbol KNAN.

     On January 3, 2000,  Coral Reserves Group,  Ltd.  changed its name to
     Canaan Energy  Corporation and continues to conduct business as Coral
     Reserves Group, Ltd.

     The accompanying financial statements and notes thereto have been prepared
     pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
     Commission. Accordingly, certain disclosures normally included in
     financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
     accounting principles have been omitted. The accompanying financial
     statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the
     consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Canaan's
     Registration Statement on Form S-4.

     Accounting policies employed by Canaan reflect industry practices and
     conform to generally accepted accounting principles.

     In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial
     statements as of June 30, 2000, and for the three and six months ended
     June 30, 1999 and 2000, reflect adjustments (which were normal and
     recurring) which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair
     statement of the financial position and results of operations of the
     interim periods presented.

2.   LONG-TERM DEBT

     At June 30, 2000, the Company had a $125,000 revolving bank credit
     facility, maturing on November 1, 2000. As of June 30, 2000, the Company
     had borrowed $125,000 under this facility. Borrowings under the facility
     are secured by certain oil and natural gas properties and bear interest at
     variable rates, which averaged 9.5% per annum as of June 30, 2000. In
     September, 2000 the revolving bank credit facility was increased to
     $225,000.

                                       -6-

3.   RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

     On June 15, 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FAS No.
     133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. FAS 133
     establishes a new model for accounting for derivatives and hedging
     activities and supersedes and amends a number of existing standards. FAS
     133 (as amended by FAS 137 and FAS 138) is effective for all fiscal
     quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000.

     FAS 133 standardizes the accounting for derivative instruments by requiring
     that all derivatives be recognized as assets and liabilities and measured
     at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives
     (gains and losses) depends on (i) whether the derivative is designated and
     qualifies as a hedge, and (ii) the type of hedging relationship that
     exists. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are not designated as
     hedges or that do not meet the hedge accounting criteria in FAS 133 are
     required to be reported in earnings. In addition, all hedging relationships
     must be designated, reassessed and documented pursuant to the provisions of
     FAS 133. The Company has not yet determined the impact of the adoption of
     FAS 133, as amended.

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

The following discussion addresses material changes in results of operations
for the three- month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000, compared to
the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 1999, and in financial
condition since December 31, 1999. The discussion should be read in
conjunction with Canaan's Registration Statement on Form S-4 File No. 333-30322
declared effective August 14, 2000.

Canaan, the Coral Limited Partnerships, the General Partners and Canaan
Securities, Inc. (CSI), an unaffiliated broker/dealer which has previously
participated in marketing of the limited partnership interests, are in the
process of merging (subject to the approval of all parties), whereby the Coral
Limited Partnerships, the General Partners and CSI will merge with and into
Canaan for shares of Canaan's common stock. The merger with the Coral Limited
Partnerships and the General Partners is expected to be accounted for as a
reorganization of interests in a manner similar to a pooling of interests and
the merger with CSI is expected to be accounted for as a purchase.
Additionally, on February 15, 1999 Canaan entered into an agreement and plan
of merger with Indian Oil Company (Indian), an unaffiliated oil and natural
gas company. Under the agreement, Indian will merge with and into Canaan for
shares of Canaan's common stock in a business combination. Canaan filed a
registration statement with the SEC on Form S-4, File No. 333-30322 relating
to these transactions, which became effective on August 14, 2000. The
completion of all the above transactions (the "Combination Transactions") is
anticipated in October, 2000, at which time Canaan's common stock is expected
to be traded on the NASDAQ National Market System under the symbol KNAN.

OVERVIEW

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 COMPARED WITH THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,
1999

REVENUES

Revenues from oil and natural gas sales increased 28% or $15,702 from $55,416
during the first half of 1999 to $71,118 for the same period of 2000. This
increase was due primarily to increased oil and gas prices, which averaged
$22.66 per barrel and $3.47 per Mcf for the first half of 2000 versus $14.62
per barrel and $1.99 per Mcf for the corresponding period of 1999. These
prices represent a 55% increase for oil and an 74% increase for gas. Revenue
increases attributable to rising prices were offset by declines in oil and
gas production and by the effects of Canaan's hedging activities. Oil
production for the six months ended June 30, 2000 fell by 19% or 153 barrels
to 655 barrels versus 808 barrels for the same period of 1999. Gas production
for the six months ended June 30, 2000 decreased by 26% or 5,631 Mcf to
16,125 Mcf as compared to 21,756 during the same period of 1999. Production
calculated on an equivalent barrel basis resulted in 3,343 Boe for the six
months ended June 30, 2000 compared to 4,434 Boe for the same period in 1999,
a 25% decrease. The results of Canaan's hedging activities for the first six
months of 2000 served to decrease oil revenues and average price by $3,393
and $5.18 per Bbl, respectively. The effect of hedging activities on gas
revenues and average price was a reduction of $2,313 and $0.14 per Mcf,
respectively.

LEASE OPERATING EXPENSE

Lease operating expenses rose $7,190 or 98% to $14,516 for the first six
months of 2000, from $7,326 during the same period in 1999. This increase was
the result of operating expenses associated with new wells drilled during the
first half of 2000, including transportation charges of $2,691 on the
Gwartney 13-6 well. Credit adjustments to one well in the first half of 1999
served to reduce 1999 expense, accounting for the remainder of the increase.

PRODUCTION TAXES

Gross production taxes increased by $1,768 or 59% to $4,759 during the first
half of 2000 compared to $2,991 during the corresponding period of 1999. The
increase was due to a 39% increase in oil and natural gas sales before the
effect of Canaan's hedging activities, and to gross production tax
reimbursements received in 1999 which served to reduce the total for the first
half of 1999.

DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION

Depreciation and amortization decreased $4,662 or 40% from $11,584 during the
first half of 1999 to $6,922 for the same period of 2000. The decline was
attributable to a decrease in the full cost pool amortization provision.
Canaan records general and administrative expense reimbursements in excess of
general and administrative expenses incurred as reductions to the full cost
pool. Such reimbursements through the first six months of 2000 resulted in
significantly lower amortizable costs in the full cost pool. Accordingly, full
cost pool amortization decreased $4,662 or 77% from $6,088 during the first
half of 1999 to $1,426 for the same period in 2000.

                                       -8-

<PAGE>

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE

Net general and administrative expenses were $8,684 for the first half of
2000 versus $0 for the first half of 1999. Canaan operates eight affiliated
partnerships on behalf of the general partners, and receives reimbursement of
its associated expenses from the general partners. These amounts consist of
general and administrative reimbursement fees as defined in the partnership
agreements plus the general partners' monthly cash distributions,
collectively classified in the income statement as "partnership management
fees". Fees in excess of general and administrative expenses incurred are
recognized as a reduction of capitalized oil and gas costs, and those fees in
excess of net capitalized oil and gas costs are recognized as a contribution
to equity. General and administrative expenses before the reduction by
partnership management fees rose $265,310 or 85% to $575,782 during the six
months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $310,472 for the same period of 1999.
Principal components of the increase were salaries expense, which rose
$177,595 or 43% from $408,687 to $586,262 and professional fees, which rose
$63,562 in 2000, primarily in connection with Canaan's efforts to register
certain shares of its common stock to be issued to the limited partners of its
affiliated pertnerships and to the stockholders of Indian Oil Company in
connection with the Combination Transactions.

INCOME TAXES

The effective income tax rate for the six month period ended June 30, 2000
was approximately 45%, which is similar to the 48% for the comparable period
of 1999.

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 COMPARED WITH THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,
1999

REVENUES

Revenues from oil and natural gas sales declined 19% or $7,583 from $40,961
during the three months ended June 30, 1999 to $33,378 for the same period of
2000. This decrease in revenues was the result of lower oil and gas production
offset by an increase in oil and gas prices. Oil production for the three months
ended June 30, 2000 decreased by 47% or 231 barrels to 265 barrels versus 496
barrels for the same period of 1999. Gas production for the three months ended
June 30, 2000 decreased by 50% or 7,345 Mcf to 7,468 Mcf as compared to 14,813
during the same period of 1999. Production calculated on an equivalent barrel
basis resulted in 1,510 Boe for the three months ended June 30, 2000 compared
to 2,965 Boe for the same period in 1999, a 49% decrease. Oil and gas prices
both increased, averaging $20.59 per barrel and $3.73 per Mcf for the three
months ended June 30, 2000 versus $16.38 per barrel and $2.20 per Mcf for the
corresponding period of 1999. These prices represent a 26% increase for oil
and a 70% increase for gas. The results of Canaan's hedging activities for the
three months ended June 30, 2000 served to decrease oil revenues and average
price by $3,393 and $14.69 per Bbl, respectively. The effect of hedging
activities on gas revenues and average price was a reduction of $2,313 and
$0.31 per Mcf, respectively.

LEASE OPERATING EXPENSE

Lease operating expenses rose $6,105 or 146% to $10,291 for the three months
ended June 30, 2000, from $4,186 during the same period in 1999. This
increase was the result of operating expenses associated with new wells
drilled during the three months ended June 30, 2000, including transportation
charges of $2,691 on the Gwartney 13-6 well. Credit adjustments to one well
in the three months ended June 30, 1999 served to reduce 1999 expense,
accounting for the remainder of the increase.

PRODUCTION TAXES

Gross production taxes decreased by 12% to $2,089 during the three months ended
June 30, 2000 compared to $2,366 during the corresponding period of 1999. The
decrease was due to a 5% decline in oil and natural gas sales before the
effects of Canaan's hedging transactions and to production tax credits
received during the three months ended June 30, 2000.

DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION

Depreciation and amortization decreased $5,678 or 64% from $8,836 during the
three months ended June 30, 1999 to $3,158 for the same period of 2000. The
decline was attributable to a decrease in the full cost pool amortization
provision. Canaan records general and administrative expense reimbursements in
excess of general and administrative expenses incurred as reductions to the
full cost pool. Such reimbursements for the three months ended June 30, 2000
resulted in no amortizable costs remaining in the full cost pool. Accordingly,
depreciation and amortization for the three months ended June 30, 2000
consisted only of depreciation on non oil and gas assets.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE

Net general and administrative expenses were $0 for the both the three months
ended June 30, 2000 and the three months ended June 30, 1999. Canaan operates
eight affiliated partnerships on behalf of the general partners, and receives
reimbursement of its associated expenses from the general partners. These
amounts consist of general and administrative reimbursement fees as defined in
the partnership agreements plus the general partners' monthly cash
distributions, collectively classified in the income statement as "partnership
management fees". Fees in excess of general and administrative expenses
incurred are recognized as a reduction of capitalized oil and gas costs, and
those fees in excess of net capitalized oil and gas costs are recognized as a
contribution to equity. General and administrative expenses before the
reduction by partnership management fees rose $116,811 or 72% to $278,148
during the three months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $161,337 for the same
period of 1999. Principal components of the increase were salaries expense,
which rose $84,350 or 41% from $207,968 to $292,318 and professional fees,
which rose $33,562 in 2000, primarily in connection with Canaan's efforts to
register certain shares of its common stock to be issued to the limited
partners of its affiliated pertnerships and to the stockholders of Indian Oil
Company in connection with the Combination Transactions.

CAPITAL EXPENDITURES, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

The following discussion of capital expenditures, capital resources and
liquidity should be read in conjunction with the consolidated statements of
cash flows included in Part I, Item 1 included elsewhere herein.

CAPITAL EXPENDITURES

Canaan incurred $39,425 in capital expenditures million during the first six
months of 2000. Approximately $18,000 of this total was spent in the drilling
and development of oil and gas properties. The remaining $21,000 related
primarily to computer equipment and field truck expenditures.

Capital expenditures for the first six months of 1999 totaled $65,223, all of
which was spent in the acquisition, drilling or development of oil and gas
properties.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

Canaan's cash requirements have been met primarily with cash flow provided by
operations, and supplemented by borrowings under the Company's bank credit
facility. At June 30, 2000, Canaan had a bank credit facility in place that
provided for a borrowing base of $125,000. The line of credit was fully drawn
as of June 30, 2000. In September, 2000, the borrowing base was increased by
$100,000 to $225,000. As of September 25, 2000 this additional borrowing
capacity is unused.

The June 30, 2000 note payable in the amount of $125,000 is due November 1,
2000 under the terms of the Loan Modification and Extension Agreement dated
September 21, 2000. The Company expects this balance to be refinanced with a
credit facility to be put in place in connection with the closing of the
Combination Transactions expected in October, 2000.

As discussed in the Form S-4 Registration Statement relating to the
Combination Transactions, Canaan's future cash requirements and capital
resources will change upon consummation of the Combination Transactions.

ITEM 3.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Canaan is a party to one natural gas price swap and one oil price swap. These
price swap contracts were entered into in 1999. Canaan has not entered into
any new price swap or other derivative financial instrument agreements in
2000 to date.

The natural gas price swap agreement covers 1,500 Mcf of gas per month
through September 2000. Canaan receives $2.60 per Mcf and pays the
counterparty a floating index price. The floating index price as of June 30,
2000 was $4.21 per Mcf. Each $.10 per Mcf increase in the floating index
price creates an additional $150 per month that Canaan is obligated to pay
the counterparty.

The oil price swap agreement covers 100 barrels of oil per month through
December 2000. Canaan receives $22.00 per barrel and pays the counterparty a
floating index price. The floating index price as of June 30, 2000 was $31.53
per barrel. Each $1.00 per barrel increase in the floating index price
creates an additional $100 per month that Canaan is obligated to pay the
counterparty.

The interest rate on Canaan's bank credit facility is based upon the
financial institution's prime rate plus 1 percent. As of June 30, 2000, the
interest rate on the bank credit facility rate was 9.50%. Based upon the
amounts outstanding as of June 30, 2000, a 1.0% change in the base rate would
increase Canaan's monthly interest payments by approximately $100 per month.

Canaan does not have any other market rate sensitive financial instruments.
