                   HARKEN ENERGY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                           SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 AND 2000
                                   (Unaudited)


(1)      MANAGEMENT'S REPRESENTATIONS

         In the opinion of Harken Energy Corporation ("Harken"), the
accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements contain all
adjustments necessary to present fairly its financial position as of December
31, 1999 and September 30, 2000 and the results of its operations and changes in
its cash flows for all periods presented as of September 30, 1999 and 2000.
These adjustments represent normal recurring items.

         The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been
prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC"). Certain information and note disclosures normally included
in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to these rules and
regulations, although Harken believes that the disclosures made are adequate to
make the information presented not misleading. It is suggested that these
condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and the notes thereto included in Harken's Form 10-K/A for the year
ended December 31, 1999.

         The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles 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 reported
period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

         The results of operations for the nine month period ended September 30,
2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full
year.

(2)      MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS

         Merger with XPLOR -- On August 19, 1999, Harken executed a merger
agreement with XPLOR Energy, Inc. ("XPLOR") whereby XPLOR became a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Harken. XPLOR explores for, develops and produces oil and gas
reserves domestically. The assets of XPLOR consist primarily of oil and gas
property interests located along the Texas and Louisiana Gulf Coasts. Under the
terms of the merger agreement, the holders of the outstanding shares of the
preferred stock of XPLOR converted their stock into 7,500,000 shares of Harken
common stock, and also received 2,336,066 warrants for the purchase of Harken
common stock at $2.50 per share. Additionally, Harken assumed $14,200,000 of
bank debt secured by the oil and gas properties of XPLOR. No further
consideration was issuable under this transaction to any other class of stock of
XLPOR and all outstanding shares of XPLOR stock were cancelled under the merger
agreement. The merger with XPLOR has been accounted for under the purchase
method of accounting.

         Acquisition of Benz Prospects -- On December 30, 1999, pursuant to a
Purchase and Sale Agreement and other related agreements, Harken, along with
Harken Gulf Exploration Company, a newly formed wholly-owned subsidiary,
purchased oil and gas leases covering nine exploration prospect areas (the "Benz
Prospects") covering approximately 51,000 net acres plus certain other assets
from Benz Energy, Incorporated ("Benz"). The prospects include interests in
acreage in the Cotton Valley Reef, Wilcox and Frio Trends in Texas and the Salt
Dome and Salt Ridge Basins of Mississippi. In exchange for the prospects, Harken
issued 5% subordinated notes (the "Benz Convertible Notes") with a face value of
$12 million, which are convertible into Harken common stock at a conversion
price of $6.50 per share and mature on May 26, 2003. See Note 8 - Convertible
Notes Payable for further discussion of the Benz Convertible Notes. A former
officer of Benz retained a 20% reversionary interest, subject to the Benz
Prospects achieving payout as defined in the Purchase and Sale Agreement. Such
reversionary interest shall increase to 40% in the event that Benz merges into
or is otherwise acquired by Harken. In addition, in connection with the
acquisition of the Benz Prospects, Harken entered into a consulting agreement
with the former officer of Benz whereby Harken would pay a monthly consulting
fee of $100,000 through December 31, 2000 in exchange for consulting services
related to the Benz Prospects. See Note 12 -- Related Party Transactions for a
discussion of the relationship between Harken and Benz.

(3)      MARKETABLE SECURITIES

         Included within cash and temporary investments at December 31, 1999 and
September 30, 2000 are certain investments in marketable debt securities having
maturities of sixty days or less. The cost of such marketable debt securities
totaled $18,459,000 and $10,581,000 as of December 31, 1999 and September 30,
2000, respectively, with cost approximating fair value. Harken management
determines the appropriate classification of such debt and equity securities at
the time of purchase and reevaluates such designation as of each balance sheet
date. Such debt and equity securities are classified as held-to-maturity as
Harken has the positive intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity.
Held-to-maturity securities are stated at amortized cost, adjusted for
amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity. Such
amortization is included in interest and other income. Harken holds no
securities which are classified as available-for-sale or trading. Harken
includes in cash and temporary investments other cash and cash equivalent
amounts in addition to the above marketable debt securities.

         In addition, at September 30, 2000, Harken held an investment in 68,108
shares of Benz preferred stock, but has reflected no carrying value for those
shares.

         Each contract requires that Harken complete prescribed activities
within a timetable specified in the contract. Harken has either completed all of
the required work, or received permission from Ecopetrol to delay or substitute
different work, for those of its contracts which contain proved reserves. Harken
is negotiating the work requirements and the timing of these requirements for
several of its other contracts.

         Under the terms of the Association Contracts, if, during the first six
years of each contract, Harken discovers one or more fields capable of producing
oil or gas in quantities that are economically exploitable and Ecopetrol elects
to participate in the development of the field, or Harken chooses to proceed
with the development on a sole-risk basis, the term of that contract will be
extended for a period of 22 years from the date of such discovery. Upon the
election by Ecopetrol to participate in a field and upon commencement of
production from that field, Ecopetrol will begin to reimburse Harken for 50% of
Harken's successful well costs expended up to the point of Ecopetrol's
participation plus, in the case of the Cambulos, Bolivar, and Los Olmos
Contracts, 50% of all seismic and dry well costs incurred prior to the point of
Ecopetrol's participation. For fields in which Ecopetrol participates,
production will be allocated as follows: Ecopetrol, on behalf of the Colombian
government, will receive a 20% royalty interest in all production, and all
production (after royalty payments) will be allocated 50% to Ecopetrol and 50%
to Harken until cumulative production from all fields (or the particular
productive field under certain of the Association Contracts) in the Association
Contract acreage reaches 60 million barrels of oil. As cumulative production
increases in excess of 60 million barrels of oil, Ecopetrol's share of
production will increase progressively (to a maximum of 75% under certain of the
Association Contracts) with a corresponding decrease in Harken's share of
production. After a declaration of Ecopetrol's participation, Harken and
Ecopetrol will be responsible for all future development costs and operating
expenses in direct proportion to their interest in production. For any fields in
which Ecopetrol declines to participate, Harken would be entitled to receive
Ecopetrol's share of production after royalty until Harken has recovered 200% of
its costs, after which time Ecopetrol would receive its share of production.

         Harken has proved reserves attributable to two of its five contracts,
the Alcaravan and Bolivar Contracts. In the Alcaravan Contract, Harken has
proved reserves in the Palo Blanco field, and in the Bolivar Contract, Harken
has proved reserves in the Buturama field. Harken has submitted application to
Ecopetrol for their participation in both of these fields. It has been Harken's
experience that Ecopetrol asks for additional information with regard to the
applications, and that the process of receiving an election from Ecopetrol may
take as much as two years.

         Reimbursement by Ecopetrol to Harken may either be in cash, or through
allowing its share of production to apply to Harken's cost recovery. During the
last part of 1999, Harken began receiving Ecopetrol's working interest share of
monthly Bolivar Contract area production as nonrefundable reimbursement for a
portion of Ecopetrol's share of certain historical Bolivar Contract area costs.
Harken similarly began receiving Ecopetrol's working interest share of monthly
Alcaravan area production in May 2000. Harken has reflected such nonrefundable
reimbursement production as revenues during 1999 and 2000.

         In order to continue producing from its wells while Ecopetrol is making
its determinations as to participation, Harken must receive testing permits,
which generally cover 90 day periods, issued by Colombia's Ministry of Mining
and Energy. Ecopetrol has advised Harken that the Ministry of Mining and Energy
has never denied a permit to conduct a test requested by Ecopetrol. Harken
believes that these permits will continue to be granted.

         Harken has completed all of the work requirements of the first five
years of the Alcaravan Contract. During September 1999, Ecopetrol granted a
six-month extension until March 31, 2000 to Harken for drilling the well
required in the sixth year of the Alcaravan Contract. In February 2000, Harken
was granted by Ecopetrol a further extension until January 31, 2001 to drill
this sixth year well of the Alcaravan Contract. Harken currently plans to begin
drilling this development well on the Alcaravan Contract area acreage in January
2001. Effective December 29, 1999, Ecopetrol accepted Harken's relinquishment of
52% of the Alcaravan Contract Area as required under the Alcaravan Contract.
Harken has retained the acreage covering those structure areas associated with
the Palo Blanco and Anteojos discoveries. Accordingly, the acreage
relinquishment had no effect on Harken's Colombian proved reserves.

         Harken has fulfilled all of the work requirements for the first four
years of the Bocachico Contract. The work requirements for the fifth year
required Harken to drill one exploratory well by May 6, 1999, and the sixth year
work obligation required an additional exploratory well to be drilled by March
6, 2000. Harken has not drilled the fifth year or sixth year exploratory wells,
and Harken does not currently have any plans to drill a well on the Bocachico
Contract area acreage during 2000. During May 2000, Ecopetrol granted an
extension until December 7, 2000 to Harken for the drilling of the exploratory
well required in the fifth year of the Bocachico Contract and waived the sixth
year well obligation. Harken continues to negotiate with Ecopetrol regarding the
remaining future well obligation and Ecopetrol has accepted the transfer of the
fifth year well obligation to another Association Contract to be identified by
Harken prior to the December 7, 2000 date. Such negotiations also include a
proposal to relinquish all but approximately 58,000 acres of Bocachico Contract
area acreage, although Harken's proposal to Ecopetrol includes retaining the
structure area associated with the Rio Negro Prospect. Harken has no proved
reserves associated with the Bocachico Contract. Such proposed acreage
relinquishments represent 70% of the original Bocachico Contract area acreage.

         The Cambulos Contract originally required that the Cambulos Contract
acreage be reduced to 173,000 acres at the end of the second contract year, but
in May 1998, Ecopetrol agreed to defer relinquishment of the acreage in exchange
for Harken drilling two exploratory wells within the third contract year. During
May 1999, Harken received approval from Ecopetrol to allow for the additional
well depth drilled during the Islero #1 well to substitute for the obligation to
drill a second exploratory well within the third contract year. During September
1999, Ecopetrol conditionally granted a six month extension from November 1999
until May 16, 2000 to Harken for the drilling of the exploratory well required
in the fourth year of the Cambulos Contract. In May 2000, Harken relinquished
all but approximately 41,000 of its Cambulos acreage and has negotiated with
Ecopetrol for the drilling of an exploratory well on the Delta prospect on the
Cambulos Contract area before December 31, 2000. This acreage relinquishment
represents 86% of the original Cambulos Contract area acreage. Such
relinquishment did not affect Harken's proved reserves and Harken has no proved
reserves associated with the Cambulos Contract area. Harken plans to drill the
Manatial #1 well during the fourth quarter of 2000 in order to satisfy the
fourth year obligation and prior to Harken determining whether it intends to
extend the Cambulos Contract into the fifth contract year.

         Harken has completed all of the work requirements of the first four
years of the Bolivar Contract, and has committed to the fifth year work
requirements which require Harken to drill an additional well prior to July
2001.

         During the first two years of the Los Olmos Contract, and before May
24, 2000, Harken was required to reprocess at least 500 kilometers of existing
seismic data and acquire at least 120 kilometers of new seismic data and 2,000
kilometers of aeromagnetic data, and prepare an engineering study of the
contract areas. Harken is currently in negotiations with Ecopetrol which could
result in delaying the above work

requirements or modifying certain of the seismic obligations required under the
Los Olmos Contract. Harken expects to perform work requirements for the Los
Olmos Contract during the first quarter of 2001.

         Costa Rica Operations -- In August 1999, the Exploration and Production
concession contract with the Republic of Costa Rica ("Costa Rica Contract") was
signed by MKJ Xploration, Inc. ("MKJ"), which was originally awarded the
concession under Costa Rica's bidding process that was finalized in October
1997. In the fourth quarter of 1998, Harken announced an agreement to
participate in this anticipated Costa Rica Contract. The Costa Rica Contract
covers approximately 1.4 million acres in the North and South Limon Back Arc
Basin onshore and offshore Costa Rica Central America. The formal Costa Rica
Contract was signed by the President of Costa Rica and became effective October
1999. The Costa Rica Contract area is comprised of Blocks 2, 3, 4 and 12 from
Costa Rica's initial bidding round in October of 1997. Two of the Blocks are
located onshore and two are located offshore within Costa Rica's Caribbean
territorial waters.

         Harken's participation in Costa Rica is structured whereby a
wholly-owned Harken subsidiary owns 80% of the stock of a Nevada limited
liability corporation, Harken Costa Rica Holdings LLC ("HCRH"). An affiliate of
MKJ owns the remaining 20% of the stock of this subsidiary. Under the terms of
the agreement between Harken and MKJ, Harken paid $4.2 million to MKJ to
purchase its share of the Costa Rica Contract rights from MKJ after an agreement
and approval of the assignment was signed and ratified with the Republic of
Costa Rica. In June 2000, the assignment of the Costa Rica Contract rights to
HCRH was approved by the Costa Rican government. Additionally, up to $8 million
may be committed by Harken over the next two years to fund the initial minimum
work program obligations under the proposed Costa Rica Contract and Harken is
seeking additional joint venture partner participation for these work program
obligations. In connection with Harken's participation in the Costa Rica
Contract rights, Harken issued to MKJ certain non-registered, non-transferable
stock purchase warrants to purchase 200,000 shares of Harken common stock which
are currently exercisable by the holders thereof at any time after November 12,
1998 and on or before November 12, 2001 at an exercise price of $3.50 per share.

         In September 2000, the Constitutional Chamber of the Supreme Court in
Costa Rica made a preliminary vote, subject to a final judgment from the Court,
that would challenge the original bid award of the Costa Rica concession to MKJ.
The relief was sought by the indigenous people of the concession region who
maintain that they were not adequately consulted by the government prior to
offering the exploration acreage for tender. The preliminary vote attempts to
set aside the original award and requires the Costa Rican Ministry of
Environment and Energy ("MINAE") to consult with the indigenous groups regarding
its activities and impose certain other requirements upon MINAE. Harken has
already filed a motion for relief citing lack of judicial due process in the
action, and plans to vigorously defend its rights in the project.

(A)               XPLOR, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Harken, had a three-year
                  loan facility with Christiania og Kreditkasse ("Christiania")
                  which was solely secured by the oil and gas properties and
                  subsidiaries of XPLOR. The Christiania facility provided for
                  interest based on the Short-term Interbank Offered Rates
                  ("LIBOR") plus a margin of 1.125% to 1.875%, payable at the
                  underlying LIBOR maturities or lender's prime rate plus 0.25%
                  and provided for a commitment fee of 0.375% on the unused
                  amount.

                  On August 11, 2000, certain Harken subsidiaries, including
                  XPLOR, entered into a new three year loan facility with Bank
                  One Texas, N.A. ("Bank One") which is secured by certain of
                  Harken's domestic oil and gas properties and a guaranty from
                  Harken. The Bank One facility provides borrowings limited by a
                  borrowing base (as defined by the Bank One facility) which was
                  $22,000,000 at closing. The Bank One facility provides for
                  interest based on the LIBOR plus a margin of 2.350% (8.97% as
                  of September 30, 2000), payable at the underlying LIBOR
                  maturities or lender's prime rate, and provides for a
                  commitment fee of 0.375 % on the unused amount. At September
                  30, 2000 Harken has $10,537,000 outstanding pursuant to the
                  facility.

(B)               Effective September 1, 1999, Harken de Colombia, Ltd. entered
                  into a project finance loan agreement with the International
                  Finance Corporation ("IFC") to be utilized in the development
                  of the Bolivar Association Contract block in Colombia ("the
                  Project"). As of November 6, 2000, no borrowings have been
                  drawn down by Harken de Colombia, Ltd. under the facility.
                  Harken has incurred approximately $1,174,000 of issuance costs
                  associated with the project finance facility and such costs
                  are being amortized over the term of the facility.

                  The project finance facility consists of an A Loan of
                  $20,000,000, a syndicated B loan of $25,000,000 and a C Loan
                  of $10,000,000. The A and B Loans will bear interest at LIBOR
                  plus a margin of 3.50% and will be repayable in equal
                  semi-annual installments beginning one year after initial
                  disbursement of funds and continuing for five years. The
                  syndicated B Loan was jointly arranged by Dresdner Kleinwort
                  Benson, and fully underwritten by Dresdner Bank Lateinamerika
                  AG ("Dresdner"). The C Loan will bear interest at LIBOR with a
                  quasi-equity income participation and is repayable in full at
                  the end of the sixth year of maturity. The C Loan will be
                  convertible into Harken common stock under certain conditions
                  at a conversion price of $3.00 per share. All loans are
                  extendable for up to two years from the initial term if
                  certain Project performance conditions are achieved. All loans
                  will be secured by the Project. Funding under the facility is
                  subject to certain conditions, including Harken maintaining
                  certain capital commitments to Harken de Colombia, Ltd. to be
                  dedicated to the Project.

                  In August 2000, Harken received notice from IFC that Dresdner
                  had elected to cancel its participation in and underwriting of
                  the syndicated B Loan. IFC has retained its rights with
                  respect to the A and C Loans.

                  Harken has begun negotiations with IFC regarding certain
                  aspects of the Project in light of current Bolivar production
                  information and considering the inclusion of Harken's Palo
                  Blanco development on the Alcaravan Association Contract as
                  part of the Project. Currently, and as of September 30, 2000,
                  Harken de Colombia, Ltd. and Harken do not meet certain of


                                       14
<PAGE>   15

                  the provisions and financial covenants required in order to
                  draw down funds under the project finance facility. As of
                  November 6, 2000, no official modifications to the project
                  finance facility have been made with IFC.


(7)  DEVELOPMENT FINANCE AND OPERATING AGREEMENTS


         EnCap Development Finance Agreement -- In October 1997, Harken entered
into a Development Finance Agreement (the "EnCap Development Finance Agreement")
with EnCap Energy Capital Fund III, L.P., EnCap Energy Capital Fund III-B, L.P.,
BOCP Energy Partners, L.P. and Energy Capital Investment Company PLC
(collectively the "EnCap Investors"), pursuant to which the EnCap Investors
provided $25 million (the "Payment Amount"), less a 2% investment banking fee,
to Harken to finance the planned drilling of the initial wells on three
unexplored oil and gas prospects in the Middle Magdalena Basin of Colombia. In
exchange, the EnCap Investors received the right to receive future payments from
Harken equal to 5% of the net profits that Harken de Colombia, Ltd. may have
derived from the sale of oil and gas produced from each of the three prospects
if the planned drilling on the prospect was successful (the "EnCap
Participation").

         Pursuant to the EnCap Development Finance Agreement, the EnCap
Investors had the right, for a period of two years beginning in October 1998, to
convert all or part of the EnCap Participation into shares of Harken common
stock. The number of shares of Harken common stock to be issued upon conversion
of the EnCap Participation was equal to the quotient of (i) the Payment Amount
(less any distributions made in respect of the EnCap Participation) plus an
amount equal to 15% interest per annum on the net Payment Amount compounded
monthly (the "Invested Amount"), divided by (ii) the market price of Harken
common stock at the time of conversion. During the same two year period, Harken
also had the right to convert the EnCap Participation into shares of Harken
common stock with the number of shares of Harken common stock to be issued to be
equal to the quotient of (i) the Payment Amount (less any distribution made in
respect of the EnCap Participation) plus an amount equal to 25% interest per
annum on the net Payment Amount compounded monthly, divided by (ii) the market
price of Harken common stock at the time of conversion. Harken could also elect
to pay cash upon any conversion of the EnCap Participation in lieu of issuing
Harken common stock. The EnCap Development Finance Agreement also provided for
additional shares of Harken common stock ("Deficiency Shares") to be issued by
Harken in the event of a conversion to the extent that the EnCap Investors do
not, under certain circumstances, realize the Invested Amount from the sale of
shares of Harken common stock issued at the conversion. See Note 12 -- Related
Party Transactions for a discussion of the relationship between Harken and the
EnCap Investors.

         In April 1999, Harken received notice from EnCap Investments L.C. that
the EnCap Investors elected to exercise their option to convert a 40% portion of
the EnCap Participation into shares of Harken common stock. Pursuant to the
EnCap Development Finance Agreement, the EnCap Investors received 6,481,512
shares of Harken common stock.

         On October 28, 1999, Harken and the EnCap Investors entered into a
repurchase agreement whereby Harken paid cash of $20 million to EnCap
Investments L.C. on behalf of the EnCap Investors as full settlement of the
remaining Development Finance Obligations to the EnCap Investors. Such
repurchase and settlement included the extinguishment of Harken's contingent
obligation to issue Deficiency Shares of Harken common stock to the extent that
the EnCap Investors did not realize the Invested Amount from the sale of shares
issued to the EnCap Investors in April 1999.


                                       15
<PAGE>   16

         European Development Finance Agreement -- In December 1997, Harken
entered into a Development Finance Agreement and other related agreements (the
"European Development Finance Agreement") whereby Sidro S.A., Lambertine
Holdings, Ltd. and Rauscher Pierce and Clark (collectively the "European
Investors") purchased all of the outstanding common stock of Harken Capital
Corporation, ("HCC", a newly-formed U.S. corporation) for $7 million. Pursuant
to the European Development Finance Agreement, HCC then provided the $7 million
to Harken in January 1998 to finance a portion of the cost of the three-well
exploratory program discussed above pursuant to terms identical to the EnCap
Development Finance Agreement. In exchange, HCC received the right to receive
future payments from Harken equal to 1.4% of the net profits that Harken de
Colombia, Ltd. may have derived from the sale of oil and gas produced from each
of the three prospects if the planned drilling on the prospect was successful.

         In March 1998, Harken received directly an additional $3 million
pursuant to a Development Finance Agreement with Faisal Finance, which later
assigned its rights to an affiliate, Crescent International, Ltd. ("Crescent"),
which contains terms substantially identical to the EnCap Development Finance
Agreement, including conversion provisions which began in March 1999. In
exchange, Crescent received the right to receive future payments from Harken
equal to 0.6% of the net profits that Harken de Colombia, Ltd. may have derived
from the sale of oil and gas produced from each of the three prospects discussed
above pursuant to the EnCap Development Finance Agreement if the planned
drilling on the prospect was successful.

         Pursuant to the European Development Finance Agreement, the European
Investors, Crescent and Harken each had the right to convert the interest into
shares of common stock of Harken pursuant to conversion rights terms identical
to those terms related to the EnCap Development Finance Agreement, for a period
of two years beginning in December 1998. Pursuant to the European Development
Finance Agreements, the European Investors, including Crescent, are entitled to
Deficiency Shares of Harken common stock in the event of a conversion to the
extent that the Investors do not, under certain circumstances, realize the
Invested Amount from the sale of Harken common stock issued at conversion.

         In December 1998, one of the European Investors exercised their right
to convert all their interest into shares of Harken common stock. Harken elected
to pay cash of approximately $2.3 million in lieu of issuing Harken common
stock. In April and May 1999, respectively, Harken received notice from the
remaining European Investors that they had elected to exercise their option to
convert all of their interest into shares of Harken common stock. Pursuant to
the European Development Finance Agreement, the European Investors received
1,908,637 and 1,121,738 shares, respectively, of Harken common stock. In
November 1999, Harken and these European Investors entered into an agreement to
extend the calculation of the Invested Amount from the date of conversion to
September 30, 1999 and also extended the period in which these European
Investors could sell their shares of Harken common stock received at conversion.
In March 2000, Harken issued to these European Investors 2,398,400 and 1,739,730
shares, respectively, of Deficiency Shares of Harken common stock pursuant to
the European Development Finance Agreement as modified.

         Also, in April 1999, Harken received notice from Crescent that it had
elected to exercise its option to convert a two-thirds portion of its Interest
into shares of Harken common stock. Pursuant to the Development Finance
Agreement with Crescent, Crescent received 1,316,829 shares of Harken common
stock. In February 2000, Harken entered into an agreement with Crescent whereby
Harken issued 1,457,390 shares of Harken common stock to Crescent as full
settlement for any additional shares payable to Crescent related to its April
1999 conversion of its Interest. In March 2000, Harken received notice from
Crescent that it had elected to exercise its option to convert the remaining
portion of its Interest into shares of Harken common stock. Pursuant to the
Development Finance Agreement with Crescent, Crescent was issued 1,282,741
shares of Harken common stock. Harken continues to be committed to provide
potential additional

                                       16
<PAGE>   17

Deficiency Shares of Harken common stock to Crescent related to the sale of
these shares issued.

         Accounting for Development Finance Agreements - At December 31, 1999,
Harken accounted for the remaining Development Finance Agreement Invested
Amount, including the accrued 15% per annum increase, as a long-term obligation,
as such Invested Amount is payable to Crescent should Crescent elect to convert
their Institutional Participation into shares of Harken common stock. The 15%
per annum increase in the Invested Amount, plus the amortization of the issuance
costs associated with the Development Finance Agreements, is reflected as
Interest Expense and Other, net of amounts capitalized, in the accompanying
consolidated statements of operations. Harken records as Interest Expense and
Other the fair value of the obligation to issue Deficiency Shares related to
conversions of Development Finance Agreements at the time they are converted. In
addition, Harken reflected Interest Expense and Other during the fourth quarter
of 1999 and first quarter of 2000 for the additional value related to the
November 1999 agreement with the European Investors and the February 2000
agreement with Crescent, respectively. As Institutional Participation is
converted into shares of Harken common stock, a pro-rata portion of the
unamortized issuance costs associated with the Development Finance Agreements
has been charged to income as an extraordinary item.

</TABLE>

         5% European Notes -- On May 26, 1998, Harken issued to qualified
purchasers a total of $85 million in 5% Senior Convertible Notes (the "5%
European Notes") which mature on May 26, 2003. Interest incurred on these notes
is payable semi-annually in May and November of each year to maturity or until
the 5% European Notes are converted. Such 5% European Notes are convertible into
shares of Harken common stock at an initial conversion price of $6.50 per share,
subject to adjustment in certain circumstances ("the 5% European Note Conversion
Price"). Other than the February 2000 transaction discussed below, none of the
bondholders have exercised their conversion option as of November 6, 2000.

         In February 2000, Harken entered into an agreement with a holder of the
European Notes in which the holder exchanged Notes in the face amount of
$6,000,000, plus accrued interest, for 3,000,000 shares of Harken common stock.
Although the 3,000,000 shares of Harken common stock issued had a total fair
value of approximately 50% of the face value of the Notes exchanged, accounting
for the transaction required Harken to reflect a charge to earnings of
$2,068,000 related to the fair value of the shares of Harken common stock issued
in excess of the number of shares which would have been issued pursuant to the
$6.50 per share conversion price of the European Notes.

                                       17
<PAGE>   18

         During the second quarter of 2000, Harken repurchased European Notes in
the face amount of $4,680,000 from certain holders in exchange for cash of
approximately $2,574,000 plus transaction expenses. During the third quarter of
2000, Harken repurchased European Notes in the face amount of $8,810,000 from
certain holders in exchange for cash of approximately $4,952,000 plus
transaction expenses. Subsequent to September 30, 2000 and through November 6,
2000, Harken has repurchased additional European Notes in the face amount of
$2,930,000 from certain holders in exchange for cash of approximately $1,630,000
plus transaction expenses. Harken has reflected an extraordinary item gain from
the cash purchase of outstanding European Notes in the accompanying consolidated
condensed statements of operations.

         Benz Convertible Notes -- On December 30, 1999 (the "Closing Date"),
Harken issued the Benz Convertible Notes in exchange for certain prospects
acquired from Benz. (See Note 2 - Mergers and Acquisitions for further
discussion of the acquisition of the Benz Prospects) The Benz Convertible Notes
originally were to mature May 26, 2003 and bear interest at 5% per annum,
payable semi-annually in May and November of each year to maturity or until the
Benz Convertible Notes are converted. Such Benz Convertible Notes are
convertible into shares of Harken common stock at a conversion price of $6.50
per share, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances (the "Benz Notes
Conversion Price).

         For a period of nine months following the Closing Date (the "Restricted
Put Period"), Benz may require Harken to redeem the Benz Convertible Notes into
Harken's option of either cash or Harken common stock, provided that such
consideration is used to retire obligations of Benz at a discount, which is
acceptable to Harken at Harken's sole discretion, to the face amount of such
obligations. In addition, for a period of nine months, beginning no later than
the end of the Restricted Put Period, the Benz Convertible Notes may be redeemed
at Benz's option for an amount equal to 50% of the then outstanding principal
amount, plus accrued interest, of the related Benz Convertible Notes, payable at
Harken's option either in cash or Harken common stock.

         In March 2000, Harken and Benz entered into an agreement whereby Harken
prepaid the approximately $243,000 interest payment due May 26, 2000 on the Benz
Convertible Notes and repurchased Benz Convertible Notes having a face amount of
$1,125,000 for $375,000 cash. In addition, the May 26, 2003 maturity date for
certain of the Benz Convertible Notes was extended to November 26, 2003. No gain
was recorded on this transaction due to the related party relationship that
existed between Harken and Benz at the time of this transaction.

         Harken has reflected the Benz Convertible Notes on its consolidated
balance sheet at the fair value of the Notes on the Closing date. The difference
between the fair value and the face amount of the Benz Convertible Notes
outstanding will be accreted into interest expense over the term of the notes.


(9)      STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

         Common Stock -- Harken currently has authorized 225,000,000 shares of
$.01 par common stock. At December 31, 1999 and September 30, 2000, Harken had
issued 155,707,548 shares and 179,152,110 shares, respectively.

         Treasury Stock -- At December 31, 1999 and September 30, 2000, Harken
held 2,153,000 shares of Harken common stock purchased in the open market at a
cost of $4,516,000. Subsequent to September 30, 2000, and as of November 6,
2000, Harken has purchased an additional 627,500 shares of Harken common stock
at a cost of $341,000.

         Issuance of Convertible Notes Payable -- In May 1998, Harken issued to
qualified purchasers a total of $85 million in 5% European Notes which mature on
May 26, 2003. In February 2000, Harken entered into an agreement with a holder
of the European Notes where the holder exchanged Notes in the face amount of
$6,000,000, plus accrued interest, for 3,000,000 shares of Harken common stock.

         On December 30, 1999 (the "Closing Date"), Harken issued the Benz
Convertible Notes in exchange for certain prospects acquired from Benz. (See
Notes 2 and 8 - Mergers and Acquisitions and Convertible Notes Payable for
further discussion of the acquisition of the Benz Prospects and the Benz
Convertible Notes) The Benz Convertible Notes mature November 26, 2003 and bear
interest at 5% per annum, payable semi-annually in May and November of each year
to maturity or until the Benz Convertible Notes are converted.

         Private Placements of Harken Common Stock -- In March 2000, Harken
issued 2,000,000 shares of Harken common stock to two institutional investors in
exchange for $1,500,000 cash and 5,000 shares of Benz Series II preferred stock
having a face value of $500,000. In May 2000, Harken issued 2,461,538 shares of
Harken common stock to institutional investors in exchange for $1,500,000 cash
and 5,000 shares of Benz Series II preferred stock having a face value of
$500,000. During the third quarter of 2000, Harken issued 9,044,765 shares of
Harken common stock to institutional investors in exchange for $4,971,000 cash
and 13,380 shares of Benz Series II preferred stock having a face value of
$1,338,000 and Benz Notes with a face value of $412,000. No value has been
assigned to the Benz securities held by Harken.

         Series G1 Preferred Stock -- On August 25, 2000, the Harken Board of
Directors approved the authorization and issuance of up to 240,000 shares of a
new series of convertible preferred stock. The Series G1 Convertible Preferred
Stock (the "Series G1 Preferred"), which was issued in October 2000, has a
liquidation value of $100 per share, and is convertible at the holder's option
into Harken common stock at a conversion price of $1.25 per share, subject to
adjustment in certain circumstances (the "Series G1 Preferred Conversion
Price"). The Series G1 Preferred is also convertible by Harken into shares of
Harken common stock if for any period of twenty consecutive trading days, the
average of the closing prices of Harken common stock during such period shall
have equaled or exceeded the Target Price. Such Target Price shall initially be
defined as the Series G1 Preferred Conversion Price multiplied by 110% (or
$1.375 per share of Harken common stock) and shall be reduced by an additional
$0.11 on each anniversary of the Closing Date, but not less than a minimum
Target Price of $0.81.

         The Series G1 Preferred holders shall be entitled to receive dividends
at an annual rate equal to $8 per share when, as and if declared by the Harken
Board of Directors. All dividends on the Series G1 Preferred are cumulative and
payable semi-annually in arrears, payable on June 30 and December 30. At
Harken's option, dividends may also be payable in Harken common stock at $1.25
per share of Harken common stock. Harken also may redeem the Series G1 Preferred
in whole or in part for cash at any time at $100 per share plus any accrued and
unpaid dividends. In addition, on or after June 1, 2004, Harken may further
elect, in any six-month period, to redeem up to 50% of the outstanding Series G1
Preferred with shares of Harken common stock valued at an average market price,
and using a Redemption Value of the Series G1 Preferred that includes a 5% to
10% premium based on the market capitalization of Harken at the time of
redemption.

         During August and September 2000, Harken received consideration
consisting of approximately $8,028,000 cash, 44,728 shares of Benz Series II
preferred stock having a face value of $4,472,800 and Benz Notes with a face
value of $3,555,000 in exchange for 160,565 shares of Series G1 Preferred which
were issued in October 2000. Subsequent to September 30, 2000 and through
November 6, 2000, Harken also



                                       19
<PAGE>   20

issued 21,590 additional shares of Series G1 Preferred for consideration
consisting of approximately $580,000 cash, 8,095 shares of Benz Series II
preferred stock having a face amount of $809,500, Benz Notes with a face value
of $20,000 and approximately 2.9 million shares of Benz common stock. No value
has been assigned to the Benz securities held by Harken.

         Development Finance Agreements -- Harken entered into Development
Finance Agreements relating to certain of its Colombian operations. Pursuant to
these Development Finance Agreements, the investors have exercised their options
to convert their beneficial interest in a specific operating area into shares of
Harken common stock. In addition, certain of these investors were issued shares
of Harken common stock at the time of entering into a Development Finance
Agreement with Harken. In October 1999, Harken repurchased for cash a
significant majority of the remaining Development Finance Agreements. For a
complete discussion of each of the various Development Finance Agreements, and
further discussions of certain conversions of beneficial interests exercised in
April and May 1999, and March 2000, as well as a discussion of the October 1999
repurchase, see Note 7 - Development Finance and Operating Agreements.


(10)     PER SHARE DATA

         Basic earnings per common share was computed by dividing net income or
loss by the weighted average number of shares of Harken common stock outstanding
during the period. The impact during 1999 and 2000 of unconverted Convertible
Notes or Development Finance Agreements was not included as their effect would
have been antidilutive. Had the remaining Development Finance Agreement which
converted in March 2000, the February and March 2000 issuance of Deficiency
Shares pursuant to Development Finance Agreements, the first quarter exchange of
European Notes for shares of Harken common stock and the private placements of
Harken common stock during 2000 been consummated effective January 1, 2000,
Harken's net income attributed to common stock would have been $0.02 per share
for the first nine months of 2000.


(11)     INCOME TAXES

         At September 30, 2000, Harken had available for federal income tax
reporting purposes, net operating loss (NOL) carryforward for regular tax
purposes of approximately $95,000,000 which expires in 2000 through 2019,
alternative minimum tax NOL carryforward of approximately $79,000,000 which
expires in 2000 through 2019, statutory depletion carryforward of approximately
$2,000,000 which does not have an expiration date, and a net capital loss
carryforward of approximately $6,000,000 which expires in 2000. Approximately
$5,000,000 of the net operating loss carryforward has been acquired with the
purchase of subsidiaries and must be used to offset future income from
profitable operations within those subsidiaries.

         There were no deferred tax liabilities as of September 30, 2000. Total
deferred tax assets, primarily related to the net operating loss carryforward,
were approximately $35,198,000 at September 30, 2000. The total deferred tax
asset is offset by a valuation allowance of approximately $35,198,000 at
September 30, 2000.

(12)     RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

         Prior to his resignation in July 2000, Harken had on its Board of
Directors a director who is also a managing director of EnCap Investments L.C.
("EnCap"). EnCap has historically provided financial consulting and investment
banking services to Harken. As described in Note 7 -- Development Finance and
Operating Agreements, in October 1997, Harken entered into a Development Finance
Agreement with the EnCap Investors. EnCap serves as the general partner of three
of the EnCap Investors and the Harken director serves as a director of the
fourth EnCap Investor. In connection with the EnCap Development Finance
Agreement, EnCap received an investment banking fee of $500,000. In October
1999, Harken purchased all the Development Finance Agreement interests and
rights held by the EnCap Investors for $20,000,000 cash. In addition, in
December 1999, Harken acquired the Benz Prospects from Benz, which is an
affiliate of EnCap. Harken believes that the above transactions were made at
terms at least as favorable to Harken as those that could have been secured with
an unrelated party.

         During the first nine months of 2000, Harken issued shares of Harken
common stock to investors in Benz in exchange for cash and shares of Benz Series
II preferred stock. See Note 9--Stockholders Equity for further discussion.

         During 1997, 1998, and 1999, Harken made secured short-term loans to
certain members of Harken's Board of Directors and Management. Such notes
receivable are reflected in Harken's consolidated balance sheet at December 31,
1999 and September 30, 2000 as Related Party Notes Receivable.


(13)     HEDGING ACTIVITIES

         During 1999, Harken entered into certain commodity derivative
instruments, which are effective in mitigating commodity price risk associated
with a portion of its monthly crude oil and natural gas production and cash
flow. With the August 19, 1999 merger with XPLOR, Harken held natural gas price
swaps entered into by XPLOR. At September 30, 2000, such natural gas price swaps
result in XPLOR receiving fixed prices of approximately $2.20 per MMBTU covering
a total of 1,125,000 MMBTUs over the life of the swaps, through December 2001.
Harken allocated a portion of the XPLOR purchase price to the fair value of
these swap contracts as of the date of the merger. At September 30, 2000, the
remaining deferred obligation relating to these natural gas swap contracts was
approximately $556,000, and had a market value of approximately $2,853,000, is
reflected in accrued liabilities and will be recognized in revenue over the life
of the contracts as the hedged natural gas is sold. At September 30, 2000,
Harken also held a put option for crude oil with a fixed price of $15 per barrel
covering 18,500 barrels over the life of the option, through October 31, 2000.

         Settlements of oil and gas commodity derivatives are based on the
difference between fixed swap or option prices and the New York Mercantile
Exchange closing prices for each month during the life of the contracts. Harken
monitors its crude oil and gas production prices compared to New York Mercantile
Exchange prices to assure its commodity derivatives are effective hedges in
mitigating its commodity price risk.

         During 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
No. 133, "Accounting For Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("FAS
133") which governs the accounting for commodity derivative instruments. FAS
133, which will be effective January 1, 2001, provides requirements of hedge
effectiveness of commodity derivative instruments to be met and documented in
order to be accounted for as



                                       21
<PAGE>   22

hedging instruments, and requires commodity derivatives to be accounted for as
assets or liabilities, and to be valued at their fair market values. Commodity
derivatives under FAS 133 will also be classified as either hedges of a
company's future cash flows, hedges of the fair value of a company asset or
liability, or a hedge of a company's net investment in a foreign operation.

         It is anticipated that Harken's current and future commodity derivative
instruments will qualify as cash flow hedges under the new standard. The effect
on Harken as a result of FAS 133 will be to reflect its commodity derivatives at
their fair value on its balance sheet and to reflect any periodic change in the
fair value of such commodity derivatives as a component of other comprehensive
income.

(14)     SEGMENT INFORMATION

         Harken divides its operations into two operating segments which are
managed and evaluated by Harken as separate operations. Harken's North American
operating segment currently relates to Harken's exploration, development,
production and acquisition efforts in the United States whereby production cash
flows are discovered or acquired, and operated primarily through traditional
ownership of mineral interests in the various states in which it operates.
Harken's North American production is sold to established purchasers and
generally transported through an existing and well-developed pipeline
infrastructure. Harken's Middle American operating segment currently relates to
Harken's exploration, development, production and acquisition efforts in
Colombia and Costa Rica. Middle American segment production cash flows are
established through extensive drilling operations conducted under Association
Contract arrangements with the state-owned oil and gas companies/ministries in
the respective countries. Harken's Middle American operations are heavily
capital intensive in the exploration and development phases due to remote well
locations and the general need for the construction of Harken's own flowline
connections and production facilities. During the periods presented below, none
of Harken's Middle American segment operating revenues related to Costa Rica.

         Harken's accounting policies for each of its operating segments are the
same as those for its consolidated financial statements. There are no
intersegment sales or transfers. Revenues and expenses not directly identifiable
with either segment, such as certain general and administrative expenses, are
allocated by Harken based on various internal and external criteria including an
assessment of the relative benefit to each segment.

         Harken's financial information for each of its operating segments is as
follows for the periods ended September 30, 1999 and September 30, 2000:

(15)     COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

         Operational Contingencies -- The exploration, development and
production of oil and gas are subject to various Navajo, federal and state laws
and regulations designed to protect the environment. Compliance with these
regulations is part of Harken's day-to-day operating procedures. Infrequently,
accidental discharge of such materials as oil, natural gas or drilling fluids
can occur and such accidents can require material expenditures to correct.
Harken maintains levels of insurance customary in the industry to limit its
financial exposure. Management is unaware of any material capital expenditures
required for environmental control during the next fiscal year.

         In September 1997, Harken Exploration Company, a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Harken, was served with a lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court for
the Northern District of Texas, Amarillo Division, styled D. E. Rice and Karen
Rice, as Trustees for the Rice Family Living Trust ("Rice") vs. Harken
Exploration Company. In the lawsuit, Rice alleges damages resulting from Harken
Exploration Company's alleged spills on Rice's property and has claimed that the
Oil Pollution Act ("OPA") should be applied in this circumstance. Harken
believes that this position as well as the lawsuit in total is wholly without
merit. In October 1999, the trial court granted Harken's Motion for Summary
Judgment that the OPA did not apply and dismissed the Rice claim under it. Rice
has appealed the trial court's summary judgement to the U.S. Fifth Circuit Court
of Appeals. The appellate court's decision is not expected to be issued until
the second quarter of 2001. In Harken management's opinion, the results of the
lawsuit and appeal will not have a material adverse effect on Harken's financial
position.

         Search Acquisition Corp. ("Search Acquisition"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Harken, is a defendant in a lawsuit filed by Petrochemical
Corporation of America and Lorken Investments Corporation (together,
"Petrochemical"). This lawsuit arises out of Petrochemical's attempt to enforce
a judgement entered in 1993 against a group of twenty limited partnerships known
as the "Odyssey limited partnerships." Petrochemical claims that Search
Exploration, Inc. is liable for payment of the judgement as the
successor-in-interest to eight Odyssey limited partnerships. Search Acquisition
was the surviving corporation in the 1995 merger with Search Exploration, Inc.
On February 28, 1996, the court granted Search Acquisition's motion for summary
judgment. On July 3, 1998, the Fifth District Court of Appeals for the State of
Texas reversed the trial court's summary judgment and remanded the case to the
trial court. It is estimated that this trial will take place in the second
quarter of 2001. Although the ultimate outcome of this litigation is



                                       23
<PAGE>   24

uncertain, Harken believes that any liability to Harken as a result of this
litigation will not have a material adverse effect on Harken's financial
condition.

         420 Energy Investment, Inc. and ERI Investments, Inc. (collectively
"420 Energy") filed a lawsuit against XPLOR Energy, Inc., ("XPLOR") a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Harken, on December 21, 1999 in the New Castle County
Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware. 420 Energy alleges that they are
entitled to appraisal and payment of the fair value of their common stock in
XPLOR as of the date XPLOR merged with Harken. Harken has relied on an indemnity
provision in the XPLOR merger agreement to tender the costs of defense in this
matter to a third party. Although the outcome of this litigation is uncertain,
Harken believes that any liability to Harken as a result of this litigation will
not have a material adverse effect on Harken's financial condition.

         On March 8, 2000, Harken was named as a third party defendant in an
action styled State of Texas vs. Amber Refining, Inc., Paradigm Properties
Management, Inc., Amber Terminal, Inc., Texas 150 Business Park, Inc., Edward A.
Shaw, ESCM & Associates, Restructure Petroleum Marketing, Inc., and EZ Serve
Corporation, Inc.; Case No. 97-05966 pending in the 261st District Court for
Travis County, Texas. This is an action brought by the State of Texas against
the owners of a refinery and refined products terminal facility located in Fort
Worth, Texas. Harken believes that it has no liability in this matter.

         On August 3, 2000, Harken was served with a lawsuit initiated by Melvyn
I. Weiss styled Melvyn I. Weiss vs. Harken Energy Corporation, C.A. No. 18182NC,
which was pending in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware in and for
New Castle County. In this lawsuit, the plaintiff, Melvyn I. Weiss, a
stockholder of Harken, sought to inspect Harken's corporate records as they
relate to actions taken with respect to the EnCap Development Finance Agreement.
On September 13, 2000, upon Harken agreeing to provide the requested documents,
the plaintiff filed a notice of voluntary dismissal of the lawsuit without
prejudice.

         During the second quarter of 2000, HCRH was notified of a
constitutional challenge raised against the Costa Rica government's awarding of
the concession contract to MKJ which was subsequently assigned to HCRH. In
September 2000, the Constitutional Chamber of the Supreme Court in Costa Rica
made a preliminary vote, subject to a final judgment from the Court, that would
challenge the original bid award of the Costa Rica Contract to MKJ. The relief
was sought by the indigenous people of the concession region who maintain that
they were not adequately consulted by the government prior to offering the
exploration acreage for tender. The preliminary vote attempts to set aside the
original award and requires the Costa Rican Ministry of Environment and Energy
("MINAE") to consult with the indigenous groups regarding its activities and
impose certain other requirements upon MINAE. HCRH has already filed a motion
for relief citing lack of judicial due process in the action, and plans to
vigorously defend its rights in the project. HCRH is not a party to this
litigation. Management believes that the plaintiffs' claims will not be
sustained by the court; no assurances can be made, however, as to the outcome of
the litigation or that the litigation will not have a material adverse effect on
Harken's business.

         Harken and its subsidiaries currently are involved in various other
lawsuits and other contingencies, which in management's opinion, will not have a
material adverse effect on Harken's financial position.

         Harken has accrued approximately $6,120,000 at September 30, 2000
relating to certain other operational or regulatory liabilities related to
Harken's domestic operations. Harken and its subsidiaries currently are involved
in various lawsuits and other contingencies, which in management's opinion, will
not result in significant loss exposure to Harken.

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

         Certain statements included in the accompanying condensed financial
statements and in the following discussion and analysis of financial condition
and results of operations, including statements of Harken management's current
expectations, intentions, plans and beliefs, and statements containing the words
"believes", "anticipates", "estimates", "expects", or "may" are forward-looking
statements, as defined in Section 21D of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties
and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance, timing or
achievements of Harken to be materially different from any results, performance,
timing or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.
Such factors include, among others, the risks described in Harken's Annual
Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999 filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.

OVERVIEW

         Harken reported a net income for the nine months ended September 30,
2000 of $3,588,000, compared to a net loss of $6,133,000 for the prior year
period, primarily due to increased prices for oil and natural gas and from the
extraordinary item gains from the repurchase of certain European Notes. The net
income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 is also attributed to
increased domestic and Colombian production during the period. Harken worldwide
oil and gas revenues have increased 149% during the first nine months of 2000
compared to the prior year period due to increased prices; increased domestic
production primarily as a result of the August 1999 merger with XPLOR Energy,
Inc.; and the increased Colombian production from Harken's Bolivar and Alcaravan
Association Contract areas. Gross profit before depreciation and amortization,
general and administrative and interest expenses totaled approximately $21.4
million during the nine months ended September 30, 2000 compared to
approximately $7.4 million for the prior year period.

        In light of the current strong prices for oil and natural gas, Harken is
now considering selling certain of its domestic oil and gas producing reserves
for cash. Such transactions, if consummated, could generate additional cash
reserves which would be available for capital expenditures, acquisitions of
additional reserves or prospects, additional repurchases of European Notes,
other debt reduction or for other general corporate purposes.

                              RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         The following is management's discussion and analysis of certain
significant factors which have affected Harken's earnings and balance sheet
during the periods included in the accompanying consolidated financial
statements.


For the quarter ended September 30, 2000 compared with the corresponding prior
period.

NORTH AMERICA OPERATIONS

         Domestic oil and gas revenues during the third quarter of 2000 and 1999
relate primarily to the operations in the onshore and offshore areas of the
Texas and Louisiana Gulf Coast, the Western and Panhandle regions of Texas, the
Four Corners area primarily on the Navajo Indian Reservation, the Magnolia
region of Arkansas and the Carlsbad region of New Mexico.

         Domestic oil revenues increased 56% to $4,174,000 during the third
quarter of 2000 compared to $2,671,000 during the third quarter of 1999
primarily due to the increase in average oil prices, which averaged $10.24 more
per barrel during the third quarter of 2000 compared to the prior year period.
Oil

prices have continued to remain higher during the fourth quarter of 2000
compared to prices received during the same period of the prior year.

         Gross domestic gas revenues increased 74% to $4,014,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 2000 compared to $2,307,000 for the prior year period
due primarily to the increase in gas production as a result of the merger with
XPLOR in August 1999. In addition, the increased gas revenues were also due to
the increase in average gas prices received during the third quarter of 2000, as
Harken received an overall average price of $4.30 per mcf of gas production
during the third quarter of 2000 compared to $2.74 per mcf received during the
third quarter of 1999. Gas prices have continued to remain higher during the
fourth quarter of 2000 compared to prices received during the same period of the
prior year.

         Domestic oil and gas operating expenses consist of lease operating
expenses and gas plant expenses, along with a number of production and reserve
based taxes. Domestic oil and gas operating expenses increased 54% to $2,955,000
during the third quarter of 2000 compared to $ 1,919,000 during the prior year
period primarily due to the increase in operating expenses from the above
mentioned merger with XPLOR. Oil and gas operating expenses decreased as a
percentage of related oil and gas revenues due primarily to the increased oil
and gas prices during the third quarter of 2000 compared to the prior year
period. Harken is reviewing its existing domestic operations to identify
specific properties for which operating expenses can be reduced.

         Harken expects that oil and gas production volumes from its existing
domestic operations will remain flat or increase slightly in future periods as
normal production declines experienced in its operating areas are expected to be
minimized by Harken's continuing workover efforts and exploration and
development drilling during 2000 and 2001. Harken's oil and gas production
volumes during 2001 could decrease, however, as Harken is currently reviewing
certain opportunities to sell certain of its producing properties for cash.
Harken expects that domestic oil and gas revenues will further benefit if crude
oil and natural gas prices remain at current levels. Harken's oil and gas
revenues are highly dependent upon product prices, which Harken is unable to
predict.

MIDDLE AMERICA OPERATIONS

         Colombian oil revenues have increased 474% from $518,000 during the
third quarter of 1999 to $2,974,000 during the third quarter of 2000 due to
increased production and higher oil prices. During the third quarter of 2000,
Harken's Colombian production operations consisted of production testing
conducted on Harken's Bolivar and Alcaravan Association contract areas.

         During the third quarter of 2000, Harken's Estero #1 well sales of
production were limited to approximately 1,000 gross barrels of oil per day due
to pipeline constraints and pumping capacity. Harken's Catalina #1 and Olivo #1
wells on the Bolivar Contract area produced an average of a combined 706 gross
barrels of oil per day during the third quarter of 2000. Harken's production
volumes during the remainder of 2000 and 2001 will primarily remain dependent on
existing well production, pipeline transportation capacity, pumping efficiency
and the success of plans to drill additional wells in Colombia.

         Due to increased production, Middle American operating expenses have
also increased from $382,000 during the third quarter of 1999 to $733,000 for
the third quarter of 2000.

                                       27
<PAGE>   28

INTEREST AND OTHER INCOME

         Interest and other income decreased during the third quarter of 2000
compared to the prior year period due to Harken's usage of cash during 1999 and
2000 for capital expenditures, and the October 1999 purchase of certain
development finance interests for $20 million. Harken generated approximately
$885,000 of interest income during the third quarter of 1999, compared to
approximately $185,000 of interest income during the third quarter of 2000.
Harken's cash balances, which include investments in short-term marketable debt
securities, have increased during the third quarter of 2000 due to the issuance
of shares of Harken common and preferred stock, and future decreases in interest
income could be mitigated by additional capital raising activities or property
sales for cash.

OTHER COSTS AND EXPENSES

         General and administrative expenses increased to $3,009,000 during the
third quarter of 2000 compared to $2,390,000 in the third quarter of 1999
primarily due to administrative expenses associated with Harken's growing
Colombian production operations. In addition, Harken added minimal
administrative expenses as a result of the increased operations relating to the
August 1999 merger with XPLOR. Harken also continues to reduce general and
administrative expenses by reducing staff.

         Depreciation and amortization expense increased to $3,124,000 during
the third quarter of 2000 compared to $1,533,000 in the prior year period
consistent with the increased equivalent barrel production levels during the
quarter and due to a downward revision in Harken's Colombia proved reserves as
of June 30, 2000. Depreciation and amortization on oil and gas properties is
calculated on a unit of production basis in accordance with the full cost method
of accounting for oil and gas properties. In addition, Harken's depreciation on
other property has increased as a result of Harken's expanding operations.

         Interest expense and other decreased to $1,242,000 during the third
quarter of 2000 from $1,990,000 during the prior year period primarily due to
the conversion and purchase of the Development Finance Agreements during 1999
and early 2000. Such decreases in interest expense were partially offset by the
interest expense added from XPLOR and the Benz Convertible Notes, as well as the
decrease in the amounts of interest capitalized to Harken's Colombian
exploration activity, as such activity during the third quarter of 2000 has
decreased compared to the prior year period.

         During the third quarter of 2000, Harken repurchased a total of
approximately $8.8 million face amount of European Convertible Notes for
approximately $ 5.0 million cash plus transaction expenses. In connection with
such repurchases, Harken has recorded $3,523,000 of extraordinary item gains
during the quarter, which is net of a charge for related unamortized issuance
costs.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2000 compared with the corresponding
prior period.

NORTH AMERICA OPERATIONS

         Domestic oil revenues increased 112% to $12,219,000 during the first
nine months of 2000 compared to $5,754,000 during the first nine months of 1999
primarily due to the increase in average oil prices, which averaged $12.97 more
per barrel during the first nine months of 2000 compared to the prior year
period. Oil prices have continued to remain higher during the fourth quarter of
2000 compared to prices



                                       28
<PAGE>   29
received during the same period of the prior year. Oil production volumes also
increased 17% during the first nine months of 2000 compared to the prior year
period primarily due to the merger with XPLOR in August 1999.

         Gross domestic gas revenues increased 157% to $11,120,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2000 compared to $4,319,000 for the prior year period
due primarily to the increase in gas production as a result of the merger with
XPLOR in August 1999. In addition, the increased gas revenues were also due to
the increase in average gas prices received during the first nine months of
2000, as Harken received an overall average price of $3.67 per mcf of gas
production during the first nine months of 2000 compared to $2.20 per mcf
received during the first nine months of 1999. Gas prices have continued to
remain higher during the fourth quarter of 2000 compared to prices received
during the same period of the prior year.

         Domestic oil and gas operating expenses increased 92% to $8,827,000
during the first nine months of 2000 compared to $ 4,608,000 during the prior
year period primarily due to the increase in operating expenses from the above
mentioned merger with XPLOR. Oil and gas operating expenses decreased as a
percentage of related oil and gas revenues due primarily to the increase in oil
and gas prices during the first nine months of 2000 compared to the prior year
period. Harken is reviewing its existing domestic operations to identify
specific properties for which operating expenses can be reduced.

MIDDLE AMERICA OPERATIONS

         Colombian oil revenues increased 234% from $2,407,000 during the first
nine months of 1999 to $8,043,000 during the first nine months of 2000 primarily
due to increased production and from the increase in oil prices, which averaged
$22.66 per barrel during the first nine months of 2000 compared to $11.09 during
the first nine months of 1999. During the first nine months of 2000, Harken's
Colombian production operations consisted of production testing conducted on
Harken's Bolivar and Alcaravan Association contract areas.

         Due to increased production, Middle American operating expenses have
also increased from $895,000 during the first nine months of 1999 to $1,829,000
for the first nine months of 2000.

INTEREST AND OTHER INCOME

         Interest and other income decreased during the first nine months of
2000 compared to the prior year period due to Harken's usage of cash during 1999
and 2000 for capital expenditures, and the October 1999 purchase of certain
development finance interests for $20 million. Harken generated approximately
$3,118,000 of interest income during the first nine months of 1999, compared to
approximately $850,000 of interest income during the first nine months of 2000.
Harken's cash balances, which include investments in short-term marketable debt
securities, have increased slightly despite its capital expenditure activity
during the nine months ended September 30, 2000 due to the issuance of shares of
Harken common and preferred stock, and future decreases in interest income could
be mitigated by additional capital raising activities or property sales for
cash.

OTHER COSTS AND EXPENSES

         General and administrative expenses increased to $8,720,000 during the
first nine months of 2000 compared to $6,757,000 during the first nine months of
1999 primarily due to administrative expenses



                                       29
<PAGE>   30

associated with Harken's growing Colombian production operations. In addition,
Harken added minimal administrative expenses as a result of the increased
operations relating to the August 1999 merger with XPLOR. Harken also continues
to reduce general and administrative expenses by reducing staff.

         Depreciation and amortization expense increased to $9,266,000 during
the first nine months of 2000 compared to $4,420,000 during the prior year
period consistent with the increased equivalent barrel production levels during
the quarter and due to a downward revision in Harken's Colombia proved reserves
as of June 30, 2000. Depreciation and amortization on oil and gas properties is
calculated on a unit of production basis in accordance with the full cost method
of accounting for oil and gas properties. In addition, Harken's depreciation on
other property has increased as a result of Harken's expanding operations.

         Interest expense and other decreased to $3,986,000 during the first
nine months of 2000 compared to $ 4,863,000 during the prior year period
primarily due to the conversion and purchase of the Development Finance
Agreements during 1999 and early 2000. Such decreases in interest expense were
partially offset by the interest expense added from XPLOR and the Benz
Convertible Notes, as well as the decrease in the amounts of interest
capitalized to Harken's Colombian exploration activity, as such activity during
the first nine months of 2000 has decreased compared to the prior year period.

         Related to the February 2000 transaction whereby Harken exchanged
European Notes in the face amount of $6,000,000 plus accrued interest for
3,000,000 shares of Harken common stock, Harken reflected a charge to earnings
of $2,068,000 related to the fair value of the shares of Harken common stock
issued in excess of the number of shares which would have been issued pursuant
to the $6.50 per share conversion price of the European Notes.

         During the first nine months of 2000, Harken repurchased a total of
approximately $13.5 million face amount of European Convertible Notes for
approximately $7.5 million cash plus transaction expenses. In connection with
such repurchases, Harken has recorded $5,395,000 of extraordinary item gains
during the period, which is net of charges for related unamortized issuance
costs.



                         LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

CAPITAL SOURCES

        Harken's working capital at September 30, 2000 was approximately $18.4
million, versus approximately $21.0 million at December 31, 1999. The decrease
in working capital during the first nine months of 2000 resulted primarily from
approximately $22.2 million of capital expenditures. Increased by current strong
oil and natural gas prices, Harken's operations generated approximately $13.6
million of cash flow during the first nine months of 2000. Harken's cash
resources at September 30, 2000 totaled approximately $26.8 million. Harken's
remaining cash resources are available for its ongoing exploration, development
and acquisition efforts, the repurchase of additional European Notes as well as
potential purchases of Harken common stock.

        During the third quarter, Harken continued with its equity placement
activities by issuing 9,044,765 shares of Harken common stock to institutional
investors in exchange for $4.9 million cash plus certain Benz securities.
Through November 6, 2000, Harken has raised approximately $8 million in private
placements of its common stock during the year. In addition, beginning in the
third quarter, and through November 6, 2000,



                                       30

Harken has issued 182,155 shares of its new Series G1 Preferred Stock in
exchange for approximately $8.6 million cash plus certain Benz securities.
Capital raised from these equity placements has been or will be used for capital
expenditures, European Note repurchases or other corporate purposes.

        In light of the current strong prices for oil and natural gas, Harken is
now considering selling certain of its domestic oil and gas producing reserves
for cash. Such transactions, if consummated, could generate additional cash
reserves which would be available for capital expenditures, acquisitions of
additional reserves and prospects, additional repurchases of European Notes,
other debt reduction or for other general corporate purposes.

        Harken's cash flows from operations have been enhanced by the current
production tests at its Alcaravan and Bolivar Contract areas. In addition,
beginning in December 1999 and May 2000, Harken is receiving Ecopetrol's working
interest share of monthly Bolivar and Alcaravan Contract area production,
respectively, as reimbursement for a portion of Ecopetrol's share of historical
Contract area costs.

         In March 1999, Harken de Colombia, Ltd. filed an application with
Ecopetrol for Ecopetrol's participation in the development of the Catalina
field. In June 1999, Harken de Colombia, Ltd. filed an application with
Ecopetrol for Ecopetrol's participation in the development of the Palo Blanco
field. As of November 6, 2000, both applications are in process of being
reviewed by Ecopetrol. Ecopetrol may elect to participate in the development of
the fields or require Harken de Colombia, Ltd. to proceed on a sole-risk basis
for its development plans. If Harken de Colombia, Ltd. proceeds on a sole-risk
basis, it will be entitled to receive Ecopetrol's share of production after
royalty, until Harken de Colombia, Ltd. has recovered 200% of its development
costs, after which time Ecopetrol would receive its share of production.

         Effective August 11, 2000, certain Harken subsidiaries entered into a
three year loan facility with Bank One Texas, N.A. ("Bank One"), which is
secured by Harken's domestic oil and gas properties and a guaranty from Harken.
The Bank One facility provides borrowings subject to a borrowing base (as
defined by the Bank One facility) which was $22,000,000 at closing.

         During the third quarter of 1999, Harken announced the non-recourse
project finance loan agreement facility with the International Finance
Corporation ("IFC"), the private sector subsidiary of the World Bank Group.
Loans under this facility were to be available for the development of the
Bolivar Association Contract in Colombia. Currently, and as of September 30,
2000, Harken de Colombia, Ltd. and Harken do not meet certain of the provisions
and financial covenants required in order to draw down funds under the project
finance facility. As of November 6, 2000, no official modifications to the
project finance facility have been made with IFC. The current plans for the
development of the Bolivar Contract area call for further testing of the Laurel
#1 well, as Harken plans to move up hole and test the La Luna formation, which
was present in this well based on log analysis.

CAPITAL COMMITMENTS

         Harken's primary need for capital is to fund its planned exploration
and development efforts domestically as well as in Colombia and Costa Rica.
Harken anticipates worldwide capital expenditures will total approximately $30
million and $50 million during 2000 and 2001, respectively. Harken plans to seek
joint venture partner participation to fund a portion of the cost for all of its
significant exploration projects, particularly its Costa Rican operations.
Harken believes that it will have sufficient cash resources to fund all of its
planned capital expenditures during 2000 and 2001. In addition, Harken intends
to continue to pursue


                                       31
<PAGE>   32

North American and international acquisition opportunities and plans to fund
such acquisitions, if any are consummated, through a combination of cash on
hand, issuances of debt or equity securities.

         Harken anticipates that full development of its Middle American
reserves will take several years and will also require extensive production
facilities, transportation flowlines and development activity which will require
significant additional capital expenditures. The ultimate amount of such
expenditures cannot be presently predicted.

         Harken is currently constructing a Bolivar Contract area flowline which
should be completed by yearend. Harken will continue to truck 100% of daily
Catalina field production until the flowline is operational. Harken plans to
drill an additional Bolivar Contract well during mid-2001, making use of recent
multi-component seismic studies to select the location for the well site.

         Terms of each of the Association Contracts entered into between Harken
de Colombia, Ltd. and Ecopetrol commit Harken to perform certain activities in
Colombia in accordance with a prescribed timetable. Failure by Harken to perform
these activities as required could result in Harken losing its rights under the
particular Association Contract, which could potentially have a material adverse
effect on Harken's business. Certain of the required activities are currently
being discussed and negotiated with Ecopetrol, which could impact the timing and
amount of capital expenditures to be required during 2000 and 2001.

         Related to Harken's Costa Rica operations, under the terms of the
agreement between Harken and MKJ Xploration, Inc. ("MKJ"), Harken paid $4.2
million to MKJ during the second quarter of 2000 to purchase its share of the
Costa Rica Contract rights from MKJ after an agreement and approval of the
assignment was granted by the Republic of Costa Rica. Additionally, up to $8
million may be committed by Harken over the next two years to fund the initial
minimum work program obligations under the proposed Costa Rica Contract. Harken
is currently seeking joint venture partner participation to share in the work
program expenditures required by the Costa Rica Contract. In September 2000, the
Constitutional Chamber of the Supreme Court in Costa Rica made a preliminary
vote, subject to a final judgment from the Court, that would challenge the
original bid award of the Costa Rica Contract to MKJ. The relief was sought by
the indigenous people of the concession region who maintain that they were not
adequately consulted by the government prior to offering the exploration acreage
for tender. The preliminary vote attempts to set aside the original award and
requires the Costa Rican Ministry of Environment and Energy ("MINAE") to consult
with the indigenous groups regarding its activities and impose certain other
requirements upon MINAE. Harken has already filed a motion for relief citing
lack of judicial due process in the action, and plans to vigorously defend its
rights in the project.

         Despite plans to generate additional cash through sales of certain
producing properties in light of current high product prices, Harken's North
American operating strategy continues to include efforts to acquire additional
oil and gas reserves through exploration and development drilling activities in
North America, particularly on selected properties acquired through the August
1999 merger with XPLOR Energy, Inc., the additional prospects acquired in
December 1999, and through acquisitions.

         On May 26, 1998, Harken issued a total of $85 million in 5% Senior
Convertible Notes (the "European Notes") which mature on May 26, 2003. Such
European Notes are convertible into shares of Harken common stock at a
conversion price of $6.50 per share, subject to adjustment in certain
circumstances. Interest payments related to the 5% European Notes will be funded
from cash flow from operations or existing cash balances. For a detailed
discussion of the 5% European Notes see "Notes to Consolidated Condensed
Financial Statements, Note 8 -- Convertible Notes Payable."



                                       32
<PAGE>   33

         In February 2000, Harken entered into an agreement with a holder of
$6,000,000 of the European Notes where the holder exchanged all his Notes, plus
accrued interest, for 3,000,000 shares of Harken common stock plus a cash
payment of $50,000.

         Through November 6, 2000, Harken has repurchased additional European
Notes with a total face amount of $16.4 million from holders in exchange for
cash of approximately $9.2 million plus transaction expenses. Harken continues
to consider additional transactions with the European Note holders whereby
Harken may retire additional Notes in exchange for shares of Harken common
stock, cash or other consideration.

         On December 30, 1999, Harken issued the Benz Convertible Notes in
exchange for certain prospects acquired from Benz. See "Notes to Consolidated
Condensed Financial Statements, Note 2 - Mergers and Acquisitions" for further
discussion of the acquisition of the Benz Prospects. The Benz Convertible Notes
mature May 26, 2003 and bear interest at 5% per annum, payable semi-annually in
May and November of each year to maturity or until the Benz Convertible Notes
are converted. Such Benz Convertible Notes are convertible into shares of Harken
common stock at a conversion price of $6.50 per share, subject to adjustment in
certain circumstances (the "Benz Notes Conversion Price"). For a detailed
discussion of the Benz Convertible Notes see "Notes to Consolidated Condensed
Financial Statements, Note 8 -- Convertible Notes Payable".

         In March 2000, Harken and Benz entered into an agreement whereby Harken
prepaid the approximately $243,000 interest payment due May 26, 2000 on the Benz
Convertible Notes and repurchased Benz Convertible Notes having a face amount of
$1,125,000 for $375,000 cash. In addition, the May 26, 2003 maturity date for
certain of the Benz Convertible Notes was extended to November 26, 2003. No
accounting gain was recorded on this transaction due to the related party
relationship between Harken and Benz.

         Harken has reflected the Benz Convertible Notes on its consolidated
balance sheet at the fair value of the Notes on the Closing Date. The difference
between the fair value and the face amount of the Benz Convertible Notes
outstanding is accreted into interest expense over the term of the notes.

         Operational Contingencies -- The exploration, development and
production of oil and gas are subject to various Colombian, Costa Rican, Navajo,
federal, state and local laws and regulations designed to protect the
environment. Compliance with these regulations is part of Harken's day-to-day
operating procedures. Accidental discharge of such materials as oil, natural gas
or drilling fluids can occur and such accidents can require material
expenditures to correct. Harken maintains levels of insurance customary in the
industry to limit its financial exposure. Management is unaware of any material
capital expenditures required for environmental control during the next fiscal
year.

         Harken has accrued approximately $6.1 million at September 30, 2000
relating to operational or regulatory liabilities related to Harken's North
American operations. Harken and its subsidiaries currently are involved in
various lawsuits and other contingencies, which in management's opinion, will
not result in significant loss exposure to Harken. See part II. Item 1. Legal
Proceedings.

       ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK


        The information contained in item 3 updates, and should be read in
conjunction with, information set forth in Part II, Item 7a in Harken's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999, in addition to the
interim condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes
presented in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.


                           PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

         In September 1997, Harken Exploration Company, a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Harken, was served with a lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court for
the Northern District of Texas, Amarillo Division, styled D. E. Rice and Karen
Rice, as Trustees for the Rice Family Living Trust ("Rice") vs. Harken
Exploration Company. In the lawsuit, Rice alleges damages resulting from Harken
Exploration Company's alleged spills on Rice's property and has claimed that the
Oil Pollution Act ("OPA") should be applied in this circumstance. Harken
believes that this position as well as the lawsuit in total is wholly without
merit. In October 1999, the trial court granted Harken's Motion for Summary
Judgment that the OPA did not apply and dismissed the Rice claim under it. Rice
has appealed the trial court's summary judgement to the U.S. Fifth Circuit Court
of Appeals. The appellate court's decision is not expected to be issued until
the second quarter of 2001. In Harken management's opinion, the results of the
lawsuit and appeal will not have a material adverse effect on Harken's financial
position.

         Search Acquisition Corp. ("Search Acquisition"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Harken, is a defendant in a lawsuit filed by Petrochemical
Corporation of America and Lorken Investments Corporation (together,
"Petrochemical"). This lawsuit arises out of Petrochemical's attempt to enforce
a judgement entered in 1993 against a group of twenty limited partnerships known
as the "Odyssey limited partnerships." Petrochemical claims that Search
Exploration, Inc. is liable for payment of the judgement as the
successor-in-interest to eight Odyssey limited partnerships. Search Acquisition
was the surviving corporation in the 1995 merger with Search Exploration, Inc.
On February 28, 1996, the court granted Search Acquisition's motion for summary
judgment. On July 3, 1998, the Fifth District Court of Appeals for the State of
Texas reversed the trial court's summary judgment and remanded the case to the
trial court. It is estimated that this trial will take place in the second
quarter of 2001. Although the ultimate outcome of this litigation is uncertain,
Harken believes that any liability to Harken as a result of this litigation will
not have a material adverse effect on Harken's financial condition.

         420 Energy Investment, Inc. and ERI Investments, Inc. (collectively
"420 Energy") filed a lawsuit against XPLOR Energy, Inc., ("XPLOR") a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Harken, on December 21, 1999 in the New Castle County
Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware. 420 Energy alleges that they are
entitled to appraisal and payment of the fair value of their common stock in
XPLOR as of the date XPLOR merged with Harken. Harken has relied on an indemnity
provision in the XPLOR merger agreement to tender the costs of defense in this
matter to a third party. Although the outcome of this litigation is uncertain,
Harken believes that any liability to Harken as a result of this litigation will
not have a material adverse effect on Harken's financial condition.



                                       34
<PAGE>   35

         On March 8, 2000, Harken was named as a third party defendant in an
action styled State of Texas vs. Amber Refining, Inc., Paradigm Properties
Management, Inc., Amber Terminal, Inc., Texas 150 Business Park, Inc., Edward A.
Shaw, ESCM & Associates, Restructure Petroleum Marketing, Inc., and EZ Serve
Corporation, Inc.; Case No. 97-05966 pending in the 261st District Court for
Travis County, Texas. This is an action brought by the State of Texas against
the owners of a refinery and refined products terminal facility located in Fort
Worth, Texas. Harken believes that it has no liability in this matter.

         During the second quarter of 2000, HCRH was notified of a
constitutional challenge raised against the Costa Rica government's awarding of
the concession contract to MKJ which was subsequently assigned to HCRH. In
September 2000, the Constitutional Chamber of the Supreme Court in Costa Rica
made a preliminary vote, subject to a final judgment from the Court, that would
challenge the original bid award of the Costa Rica Contract to MKJ. The relief
was sought by the indigenous people of the concession region who maintain that
they were not adequately consulted by the government prior to offering the
exploration acreage for tender. The preliminary vote attempts to set aside the
original award and requires the Costa Rican Ministry of Environment and Energy
("MINAE") to consult with the indigenous groups regarding its activities and
impose certain other requirements upon MINAE. HCRH has already filed a motion
for relief citing lack of judicial due process in the action, and plans to
vigorously defend its rights in the project. HCRH is not a party to this
litigation. Management believes that the plaintiffs' claims will not be
sustained by the Court; no assurances can be made, however, as to the outcome of
the litigation or that the litigation will not have a material adverse effect on
Harken's business.

         On August 3, 2000, Harken was served with a lawsuit initiated by Melvyn
I. Weiss styled Melvyn I. Weiss vs. Harken Energy Corporation, C.A. No. 18182NC,
pending in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware in and for New Castle
County. In this lawsuit, the plaintiff, Melvyn I. Weiss, a stockholder of
Harken, sought to inspect Harken's corporate records as they relate to actions
taken with respect to the EnCap Development Finance Agreement. On September 13,
2000, upon Harken agreeing to provide the requested documents, the plaintiff
filed a notice of voluntary dismissal of the lawsuit without prejudice.

         Harken and its subsidiaries currently are involved in various other
lawsuits and other contingencies, which in management's opinion, will not have a
material adverse effect on Harken's financial position.
