PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
- ------- --------
(a) General Development of Business. Black Dome Energy Corporation
(referred to herein as the "Company" or "Black Dome"), was incorporated
under the laws of the State of Colorado on December 12, 1979, and maintains
its principal executive offices at 1536 Cole Boulevard, Suite 325, Golden,
Colorado 80401. It is an oil and gas company engaged in the exploration
for oil and gas, the purchase of producing oil and gas properties, the
sale of portions of the producing oil and gas properties and the operation
of producing oil and gas leases.
The Company explores for, developes and acquires interests in producing
oil and gas leases for the purpose of resale of a portion of the working
interest to industry participants, or for addition of reserves for its own
account. The Company acquires and retains the operation of the oil and gas
production from these leases.
During the fiscal year ended December 31, 1995, the Company's revenues
attributable to its overall income were derived primarily from the sale
of oil and gas from its producing oil and gas leases.
The Company owns working interests in certain properties located solely
in the continental United States. A more detailed description of the
Company's properties and reserves is set forth in Item 2 hereof.
(b) Financial Information About Industry Segments. The Company has
engaged in business in only one industry segment, namely the exploration
for oil and gas, production of oil and gas and the development of oil and gas
properties. Therefore, no information is provided with respect to any other
industry segment.
(c)(1) Narrative Description of Business. The Company is involved
in the exploration, development and purchase and production of oil and gas
properties as a general partner, joint venturer, or for its own account, and
as an oil and gas lease operator. The Company's activities have in the
past included the formation of joint ventures and drilling programs, and
will include in the future, the formation of partnerships and joint ventures
for the purchase, exploration, development and production of oil and gas
leases and the management of such programs. Should the Company be
unsuccessful in finding joint venturers and partners to share costs, the
Company will sell a portion of each oil and gas property purchased for cash,
or will purchase and pay for such property costs out of its own cash flow.
As a joint venturer, the Company may enter into joint venture agreements
to develop the full potential of properties purchased by the Company,
or to acquire and develop new oil and gas properties. The Company may drill
wells on such properties, complete the wells if appropriate, and act as the
operator of such properties.
(i) Principal Products Produced and Services Rendered. The Company's
principal products are natural gas, crude oil and oilfield operations and
supervision. Crude oil and natural gas are sold to various purchasers, which
generally service the areas in which the producing wells are located. The
Company operates oil and gas properties for its own account and for the
account of other working interest owners in the property.
Page 2
<PAGE>
(ii)Status of New Products or Industry Segments. There has been no
public announcement of, and no information otherwise has been made public
about, a new product or industry segment which would require the investment
of a material amount of the Company's assets or which otherwise is material.
(iii) Sources and Availability of Raw Materials. The existence of
commercial oil and gas reserves is essential to the ultimate realization of
value from the Company's properties and thus may be considered a raw
material essential to the Company's business. However, the acquisition,
exploration, development, production, and sale of oil and gas are
subject to many factors which areoutside the Company's control. These
factors include national and international economic conditions,
availability of drilling rigs, casing, pipe, and other equipment and
supplies, proximity to and capacity of pipelines, the supply and price of
other fuels, and the regulation of prices, production, transportation, and
marketing by the Department of Energy and other federal and state
governmental authorities. These factors have not materially hindered nor
adversely affected the business of the Company; however, it is not known
what, if any, additional regulations or constraints may arise, or to
what extent, if any, they may affect the Company's operations. The Company
acquires oil and gas properties from landowners, other owners of interests
in such properties, or governmental entities. For information relating to
specific properties of the Company, see Item 2 below.
(iv) Patents, Trademarks, Licenses, Franchises and Concessions. The
Company does not own any patents, trademarks, licenses, franchises or
concessions, except oil and gas leases and other interests granted by private
landowners, the loss of any one of which could have a material impact on the
Company.
(v) Seasonal Nature of Business. The Company's business is not
seasonal in nature, except to the extent that natural gas prices may tend to
fluctuate on a seasonal basis and development of its oil and gas properties
and its ability to drill oil and gas wells and the availability of drilling
rigs and other equipment, have occasionally been more restricted at calendar
year end due to increased demand from tax-sheltered drilling programs
conducted by others.
(vi) Working Capital Items. It is the practice of the Company as
well as others similarly situated in the industry to attempt to retain
working capital in order to participate in the purchase of producing
properties and the drilling and development of properties via partnerships,
joint ventures and other arrangements, and to acquire significant blocks of
undeveloped properties for future development and/or exploration. Working
capital is not needed to meet rapid delivery requirements of customers,
or to assure the Company of continuous allotments of goods from suppliers.
(vii) Major Customers. During fiscal 1995, two customers accounted
for 10% or more (individually) of total oil and gas sales: Boyd Rosene
and Associates, 73% and Helmerich & Payne Energy Services, Inc., 13%. The
Company believes that it could be adversely affected by the loss of these
major gas customers; however, there are numerous spot market gas purchasers
who could be utilizedfor the sale of natural gas. During 1995, the Company
sold oil and/or gas to eight (8) customers. No revenues were received in
connection with foreign governments in which the Company acted as a producer.
(viii) Backlog. The Company has no backlog due to the nature of its
business, nor is backlog material to an understanding of the Company's
business.
Page 3
<PAGE>
(ix) Renegotiation or Termination of Government Contracts. The
Company has no material portion of its business which may be subject to
renegotiation of profits or termination of contracts or subcontracts at the
election of government.
(x) Competitive Conditions. The purchase of existing producing
properties and exploration, development and production of oil and gas are
subject to considerable competition, and the Company is faced with strong
competition from major and medium sized oil and gas companies and other
independent operators. The principal methods of competition in the industry
for the acquisition of producing oil and gas properties and leases are
industry sales packages and the solicitation, bidding and auctioning of
individual producing properties, and the payment of bonus payments
at the time of acquisition of leases. Companies with greater financial and
operational resources, larger technical staffs and labor forces, better
developed equipment for exploration, and more extensive experience will be
in a better position than the Company to compete for such leases. In
addition, the ability of the Company to market any oil or gas which it
might produce could be severely limited by its inability to compete with
larger companies operating in the same area who may be willing or able
to offer any oil or gas produced by them at a price lower than that of the
Company. In addition, the availability of a ready market for oil and gas
will depend upon numerous factors beyond the Company's control, including
the extent of domestic production and imports of oil and gas, proximity and
capacity of pipelines, the overall foreign domestic supply and demand of oil
and gas, and the effect of federal, state and local regulations of oil
and gas production and sales. The Company has an insignificant competitive
position in the oil and gas industry.
(xi) Research and Development. The Company is engaged in finding and
producing oil and gas, and no funds are allocated to product research and
development in the conventional sense. Since its inception, the Company
has not had any customer or government sponsored research activities relating
to the development of new products, services or techniques or the improvement
of existing products, services or techniques.
(xii) Environmental Protection. The Company, as an owner and
operator of oil and gas properties, is subject to various federal, state
and local laws and regulations relating to the discharge of materials into,
and protection of, the environment. These laws and regulations, among other
things, impose liability on the Company for the cost of pollution clean-up
resulting from operations, subject the Company to liability for pollution
damages, require suspension or cessation of operations in affected areas and
impose restrictions on the injection of liquids into subsurface aquifers
that may contain groundwater.
Environmental requirements may necessitate significant capital outlays
which may materially affect the Company's earnings and potential earnings
and could cause material changes in its form of business. The Company
has made and will continue to make expenditures in its efforts to comply
with these requirements which it believes are necessary business costs
in the oil and gas industry. As of December 31, 1995, the Company is not
aware of any existing environmental claims which would have a material adverse
effect upon its capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position.
Page 4
<PAGE>
There is no assurance, however, that existing laws or regulations or
changes in or additions to laws or regulations regarding the protection of
the environment will not adversely affect the Company. It is impossible to
determine whether or to what extent the Company's future performance may be
affected by environmental laws; however, management does not believe that
such laws have had a material adverse effect on the Company's financial
position or results of operations.
(xiii) Employees. The Company currently has 2 full-time salaried
employees, one full-time contract employee, one part-time contract employee,
and one contract engineer employed on a retainer basis who are directly
engaged in its activities. The employees and retainer perform geologic,
engineering and economic property evaluations, production enhancement design
and operations, management and marketing of production on a daily basis,
accounting, and secretarial and administrative services for the Company,
as well as all general corporate management, under the direction of the
Board of Directors.
(d) Financial Information About Foreign and Domestic Operations and
Export Sales. The Company has no material operations in foreign countries
and no material portion of its sales or revenues is derived from customers
in foreign countries.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.
- ------- -----------
(a) Office Facilities. The Company's offices are located at 1536 Cole
Boulevard, Suite 325, Golden, Colorado 80401. The Company pays $1,240.00
monthly rental for the use of office facilities. The Company believes that
its present offices are suitable and adequate for its present operations.
(b)(1) Reserves. Proved developed and undeveloped oil and gas
reserves of the Company at December 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994 were
computed by Joseph R. Albi, Jr., a consulting petroleum engineer and former
Executive Vice President of the Company, and were audited by Donald M. Osmus,
a consulting Petroleum Engineer. Proved developed and undeveloped oil and gas
reserves of the Company at December 31, 1993 were computed by the Company and
audited by Donald M. Osmus.
All of the Company's reserves are located in the continental United States
and the majority of the properties comprising these reserves are operated
by Black Dome Energy Corporation.

(1) Proved Developed Reserves. These are proved reserves which can
be expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment
and operating methods. This classification includes:
(i) Proved Developed Producing Reserves. These are proved developed
reserves which are expected to be produced from existing completion
interval(s) now open for production in existing wells; and
(ii) Proved Developed Non-Producing Reserves. These are proved
developed reserves which exist behind the casing of existing wells, or
at minor depths below the present bottom of such wells, which are
expected to be produced through these wells in the predictable future,
where the cost of making such oil and gas available for production
should be relatively small compared to the cost of a new well.
Additional oil and gas expected to be obtained through the application
of fluid injection or other improved recovery techniques for supplementing
the natural forces and mechanisms of primary recovery are included
as "Proved Developed Reserves" only after testing by a pilot project or
after the operation of an installed program has confirmed through production
response that increased recovery will be achieved.
(2) Proved Undeveloped Reserves. These are proved reserves which
are expected to be recovered from new wells on undrilled acreage, or from
existing wells where a relatively major expenditure is required for
recompletion. Reserves on undrilled acreage are limited to those
drilling units offsetting productive units, which are reasonably certain
of production when demonstrated with certainty that there is continuity
of production from the existing productive formation. Estimates for proved
undeveloped reserves may be attributable to acreage for which an application
of fluid injection or other improved recovery technique is used or
contemplated only where such techniques have been proved effective by actual
tests in the area and in the same reservoir.
Present Value of Estimated Future Net Revenues from Proved Developed
and Proved Undeveloped Oil and Gas Reserves. The table below presents, as
of the end of 1995, 1994 and 1993, the present value of the estimated
future net revenues attributable to proved developed reserves and proved
undeveloped reserves discounted at an annual rate of ten percent (10%)
per year.

1995 $1,175,279 $21,037 $1,196,316
</TABLE>
While it is reasonable to anticipate that the prices received from the
future sale of production may be higher or lower than the prices used
in the evaluation described above, and the operating and other costs
relating to such production may increase above existing levels, such
increases in prices and costs have been omitted from consideration in making
these evaluations in accordance with rules adopted by the Securities and
Exchange Commission.

<PAGE>
The Company emphasizes that reserve estimates and rates of production
are inherently imprecise and that estimates of new discoveries and
non-producing and/or undeveloped reserves are more imprecise than those of
mature producing oil and gas properties. Accordingly, the estimates are
subject to change as further information becomes available.
For additional information concerning oil and gas revenues, see Note
6 to the Financial Statements.
(b)(2) Reserves Reported to Other Agencies. The Company did not
file any oil or gas reserve estimates with, or include such estimates in
reports to, any other federal governmental authority or agency within its
last fiscal year.
(b)(3)(i) Production. The following table shows the Company's net
quantities of oil (including condensate and natural gas liquids) and
of gas produced for each of the Company's past three fiscal years:

STOCKHOLDER MATTER.
-----------------------------------------------------
(a) Market Information. From October 1980 through November 12, 1984,
Black Dome's common stock was traded on the over-the-counter market under
the symbol "BDEC" and the quotes were carried by NASDAQ during that period of
time. NASDAQ voluntarily withdrew "BDEC" from the system on November 12,
1984 due to the depressed price of the stock. Since that date there has been
sporadic trading in the Company's stock. At the present time, there are no
market makers listed in the "pink sheets".
(b) Holders. The number of holders of record of Black Dome's No Par
Value Common Stock at March 21, 1996 was approximately 1,616.
(c) Dividends. Holders of common stock are entitled to receive such
dividends as may be declared by Black Dome's Board of Directors. No
dividends have been paid with respect to Black Dome's common stock and no
dividends are anticipated to be paid in the foreseeable future.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
------------------------------------------------------------
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Working capital (which incorporates current and deferred obligations)
increased slightly by $2,137 during the year ended December 31, 1995. These
results followed a working capital increase of $84,031 in 1994. Lower
received natural gas prices, payment of a portion of the deferred
compensation, declining production without reserve replacement and
significant depreciable and depletable costs resulted in the Company's loss
of $210,598 or $2.86/share in 1995. Low natural gas prices, payment of a
portion of the deferred compensation, unsuccessful workover costs of two
wells in Oklahoma, and the costs associated with restructuring the Company
contributed to the loss of $44,498 or $0.61 per share in 1994.
In October, 1992, as a source for additional working capital, the Company
obtained a $300,000 line of credit with a lending institution, secured with
10 producing natural gas wells in Clark County, Kansas. As of December
31, 1994, a total of $132,724 was borrowed from the line of credit. During
1995, the Company reconstructed the debt obligations associated with the
outstanding balance of the line of credit. As of December 31, 1995, the
Company had bank debt obligations of $84,987 tied to an 8.5% note which
matures on March 31, 1997. In addition, the Company holds a $150,000 line
of credit secured with eight (8) Clark County, Kansas producing gas
properties against which no sums were borrowed as of December 31, 1995.
The Company currently has no commitments for capital expenditures. The
Company is utilizing its own cash resources as well as outside capital to
attempt to purchase additional producing oil and gas properties. In
general, the Company's financial condition will not permit the risk of
exploratory or development drilling activities unless outside risk
capital is obtained.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------
During the fiscal year ended December 31, 1995, oil and gas revenues
decreased by $189,886 or 32% as compared to fiscal 1994, primarily as a
result of lower received natural gas prices, decreases in Company net oil
and gas production without reserve replacement and the sale of five (5)
properties in 1994. At December 31, 1995, twenty-one wells were producing
to contribute to this income. Management expects normal production
decline from the presently producing wells during 1996. At December 31,
1995, the Company was operating eighteen wells as opposed to nineteen
producing wells at December 31, 1994. Current markets remain unstable and
it is impossible to predict how these will function. Any price increase
or decrease will have a direct effect on the Company.
The Company experienced a net loss of $210,598 or $2.86/share during
1995 compared to a net loss of $44,498 or $.61/share during 1994. The
decrease in earnings is a direct result of significant operational/rework
expenses associated with properties, significantly lower received natural
gas prices, and declining production without reserve replacement.
Interest income has decreased in the past few years both because of
smaller amounts of invested cash and lower interest rates.
General and administrative costs decreased from $266,603 in 1994 to
$237,918 in 1995, primarily as a result of the elimination of one full time
salaried employee during 1994. However, overall general and administrative
costs remain high relative to the Company's size. Management believes
general and administrative costs cannot be reduced below current levels
while prudently managing the Company's assets.
Oil and gas production costs have decreased to $190,795 in 1995 as
compared to $300,236 in 1994. Both 1995 and 1994 oil and gas production
costs reflect the additional operational and re-work costs associated
with acquired properties.
The acquisition of producing gas properties in 1991, 1992 and 1993
significantly increased Black Dome's reserves during those three years.
During 1994, the Company focused on re-working operations to improve and
maintain production from all properties while recovering costs associated
with the acquisitions. During 1994, the Company disposed of five (5)
producing properties. During 1995, two (2) gas wells (1.73 net wells) in
which the Company held an interest were plugged and abandoned. The
Company was not successful in adding reserves through drilling or
acquisition activity during 1995.
As a result of significant production decline and the Company's
unsuccessful drilling and acquisition activity, net proved remaining
reserves decreased significantly (26% on a Bbl equivalency basis) between
December 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994. The estimated SEC net present
value of total proved reserves decreased from $1,281,621 at December 31,
1994 to $1,196,316 at December 31, 1995. Higher 1995 received year-end oil
and gas prices cushioned the impact of lower 1995 reserve levels on the
estimated SEC net present value of total proved reserves.
Page 11
<PAGE>
All of the foregoing conditions are expected to have a material adverse
impact on the future operations of the Company. The Company's revenues
are currently expected to continuously decrease during the next fiscal year
as properties are sold to pay expenses, and as the remaining producing
properties suffer normal declines in production. The Company does not
currently have sufficient financial resources to purchase new producing
properties to replenish expected production declines, or to replace
properties that have been (and in all likelihood will continue to be)
sold to pay operating expenses. Expenses of operations are not expected
to decrease during the next fiscal year.
During fiscal 1996, the Company intends to continue to explore reasonable
avenues relative to preserving and maximizing shareholder value. The
recurring losses from operations sustained by the Company (primarily as the
result of declining reserves, poor natural gas prices, inadequate reserve
replacement and relatively high fixed costs associated with maintaining
operations) raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going
concern. One of the avenues that management currently intends to explore is
the voluntary liquidation of the Company during the next twelve months. In
the event that the Company is unable to receive significant funding from
some viable outside source or does not voluntarily liquidate substantially
all of its assets during the next twelve months, it currently appears to be
likely that the Company will continue to deplete its assets in order to
meet its ongoing operating expenses (which will ultimately result in little
or nothing being available for distribution to any of the Company's
shareholders upon its eventual liquidation.)
Under Colorado law the Company is not permitted to sell substantially
all of its assets without first obtaining approval from a majority of its
shareholders. The cost of holding such a shareholders' meeting (including
printing, mailing, legal and accounting expenses) is currently estimated
to be approximately $40,000. These costs will reduce the amount that would
otherwise have been available for distribution to shareholders upon
liquidation.
Changes in Prices, Costs and Impact of Inflation
- ------------------------------------------------
Current economic trends still indicate that costs of conducting
business activities will not rise as rapidly as they have during the
preceding inflationary years.
Governmental and foreign decisions over which Management has no control
could impact the prices received for the Company's oil and gas and could
have a very serious effect on profits. It is impossible to predict long
term or even short term trends in pricing.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Black Dome Energy Corporation
Evergreen, Colorado
We have audited the balance sheet of Black Dome Energy Corporation as of
December 31, 1995 and 1994 and the related statements of income,
stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the three years ended December 31,
1995, 1994, and 1993. These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide
a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Black Dome Energy
Corporation as of December 31, 1995 and 1994 and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for the three years ended December 31, 1995,
1994, and 1993 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, in 1995, the Company
elected to change its method of accounting for depreciation of lease and well
equipment from the straight line method to the unit of production method
and the financial statements have been restated to reflect the change.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the
financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from
operations which raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to
continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters
are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Financial Statements
-----------------------------
December 31, 1995 and 1994
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
- --------------------------------------------------
Operations of the company
- -------------------------
Black Dome Energy Corporation was incorporated as a Colorado
corporation on December 12, 1979 and was in the development stage through
1980. The Company is involved in exploration for oil and gas and the
acquisition, development, and operation of oil and gas leasehold interests.
Income from oil and gas sales as recognized as deliveries are made
to the purchasers. Operating income is recognized as services are performed
in the management and operations of the producing properties.
If the Company determines that disposal of its producing properties
is necessary, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 121, paragraph 19, the following should be considered. The Company would
dispose of part of all property and equipment at a date to be determined.
At December 31, 1995, the carrying amount of those assets was $267,908. The
Company would not incur a loss on the disposal of the producing properties.
Property and equipment and depreciation, depletion, and amortization
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
The Company follows the successful-efforts method of accounting for
oil and gas exploration and development costs. Under this method, lease
acquisition costs and exploration and development costs attributable to the
finding and development of proved reserves are capitalized. Exploratory dry
hole costs and other nonproductive oil and gas activities are expensed. Costs
of nonproductive leases are charged to expense when abandoned or
substantially impaired, based upon a property-by-property evaluation.
Capitalized costs relating to producing properties are depleted or
depreciated
on the units-of-production method based on the total of proved reserves.
Expenditures for repairs and maintenance costs and delay rentals are charged
to expense as incurred; renewals and betterments are capitalized. The cost
and related accumulated depreciation, depletion, or amortization of property
sold or otherwise retired are eliminated from the accounts; and gains or
losses on dispositions are reflected in the consolidated statement of
operations. Furniture, office equipment, and an automobile are depreciated
using the straight-line method of depreciation over the estimated useful
lives of the assets.
Depreciation of lease and well equipment has been computed by the
units of production method in 1995. Depreciation is recorded only on well
equipment that has been placed in service. Depreciation of lease and
well equipment in prior years, beginning in 1980, was computed by the
straight
line method. The new method of depreciation was adopted to better recognize
the matching of revenues and depreciation expenses and has been applied
retroactively to equipment acquisitions of prior years. The effect of the
change in 1995, was to decrease income by approximately $56,000 (or $.76 per
share). The adjustment of $109,523 to apply retroactively the new method is
included in net loss of 1995. The pro forma amounts shown on the income
statement have been adjusted for the effect of retroactive application
on depreciation.
Inventory
- ---------
Inventory of lease and well equipment is valued at the lower of
cost
or market. Cost is determined by either the specific identification method
or
average cost method depending on the nature of the inventory item.
Income taxes
- ------------
The Company accounts for income taxes using tax-liability method in
accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 109. The
effect of Statement 109 will not have a material effect on the
financial statements of the Company. The benefit of tax carryforwards
has not been recognized because realization is not assured.

Notes to Financial Statements, Continued
----------------------------------------
December 31, 1995 and 1994
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
- --------------------------------------------------
Gain (loss) per share
- ---------------------
Gain (loss) per common share is computed on the basis of the
weighted average number of shares of common stock and common stock
equivalents outstanding during the year. There were 73,755 shares
outstanding at December 31, 1995 and 73,455 at December 31, 1994, after
allowing for the one-for 1,001 reverse split during in 1994.
Basis of presentation and going concern
- ---------------------------------------
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a
going-concern basis which contemplates the realization of assets and the
satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the
recoverability and classification of recorded assets amounts or the amount
and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the
Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company's continuation
as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash
flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis, to obtain additional
financing as may be required, and to increase sales to a level
where the Company becomes profitable. The Company's management believes it
will be able to attain these goals. If unable to attain these goals, the
Company will consider disposition of some or all of its producing
properties.
The Company believes that it will be able to dispose of its producing
properties at a value in access of its book value.
The Company has reviewed the Statements of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 121 and 123 and believes that there will be no impact on its
future financial statements.

3. Income Taxes:
- --------------------
At December 31, 1995, net operating losses available for federal
income tax purposes total approximately $1,250,000, of which $189,000,
$187,000, $237,000, $151,000, $250,000, $36,000 and $200,000 will expire
in 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2006, and 2007 respectively. Investment
tax credit carryforwards at December 31, 1995, total $13,800 of which,
$8,900, $2,000, $2,800, and $100 will expire in 1996, 1997, 1998, and 1999,
respectively, if not utilized.
The Company reports income for financial statements and income tax
reporting on the same basis of accounting.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes", which employs an asset and liability approach
for income taxes, the objective of which is to recognize the amount of
current and deferred tax payable at the date of the financial statements
using the provisions of enacted tax laws. The Company has applied the
provisions of Statement 109 in the accompanying financial statements. The
net operating loss carryforward of approximately $1,250,000 results in tax
recovery assets of approximately $625,000; however a valuation reserve has
been recorded for the full amount due to the uncertainty regarding the
realizability of the deferred tax assets.
4. Employment Contracts:
- ----------------------------
On May 8, 1991, the Company entered into an employment contract
with
E. J. Huff as President of Black Dome for a four-year period beginning
January 1, 1991 and ending December 31, 1994. The contract provides for
annual compensation of $9,600 paid currently and $60,000 to be deferred to
the final year of the contract. At December 31, 1994, $240,000 for the first
four years of deferred compensation had been recognized by the Company and
payment of $140,000 had been made. The deferred compensation is unfunded.
During 1992 and 1994 in lieu of his $9,600 annual compensation and
with approval of the Board of Directors, Mr. Huff accepted 6,800,000 and
7,500,00 restricted (pre reverse split) 6,793 and 7,492 (post reverse split)
shares of the Company's no par value common stock and cash compensation of
$1,100.
On December 31, 1994, the Company entered into an employment
contract with E.J. Huff as President of Black Dome for the three years ending
December 31, 1997 with annual compensation of $100,000 for 1995; $125,000 for
1996 and $150,000 for 1997.
On July 1, 1991, the Company entered into an employment contract
with J. R. Albi, Jr., as Executive Vice President of Black Dome for a
three-year period beginning July 1, 1991 and ending June 30, 1994. The
contract provides for annual compensation of $60,000. Upon execution of
the agreement, Mr. Albi received 7,256,000 (pre-split) 7,249 (post-split)
shares of the Company's common stock valued at $.00125 per share or $9,070.
The shares were restricted for the term of the contract and were forfeitable
as follows: If Mr. Albi left the employ of the Company prior to June 30,
1992, all of the shares; prior to June 30, 1993, two-thirds of the shares;
and prior to June 30, 1994, one-third of the shares. The contract has been
fulfilled.
5. Major Customers:

6. Supplementary Oil and Gas Information (Unaudited), Continued:
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
The following accounting policies have been used in preparing the
Reserve Recognition Accounting (RRA) presentation. The summary of oil and
gas producing activities on the basis of RRA was prepared based on the rules
of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
Under RRA, earnings are recognized as proved reserves are found
based on the estimated present value of such reserves, computed as described
below. Subsequent revisions to the RRA valuation of proved reserves are
included in earnings as they occur. Proved reserves are those quantities
of oil and gas which can be expected, with little doubt, to be recoverable
commercially at current prices and costs under existing operating methods.
The proved reserves and related valuations were computed by J. R.
Albi, Jr. and audited by Donald M. Osmus, independent petroleum consulting
individual, in accordance with the rules of the SEC. Estimated future
net revenues were computed by applying current prices received by the
Company to estimated future production of reserves, less estimated future
development and production costs and windfall profit taxes based on current
costs. A discount factor of 10% was applied to the estimated future revenues
to compute the estimated present value of proved oil and gas reserves. This
valuation procedure does not necessarily result in an estimate of the fair
market value of the Company's oil and gas properties.
Totals of proved reserves are inherently imprecise estimates and
are continually subject to revision based on production history, results of
additional exploration and development, price changes, and other factors.
The pretax income (loss) reflected in the primary financial
statements for oil and gas producing activities corresponds to the pretax
income (loss) on the basis of RRA of $128,323 in 1995 and $(1,202,954) in
1994 and $1,053,577 in 1993, respectively.
"Additions to reserves" are the result of current acquisitions and
development activities. Increases in prices are the approximate effect on
the RRA valuation of proved reserves due to price changes. Other revisions
represent the net effect of all revisions to estimated quantities of proved
reserves. Accretion of discount was computed by multiplying 10% times the
present value of future net revenues as of the beginning of the year,
adjusted to reflect downward revisions.
Evaluated acquisition, exploration, development, and production
costs include current and estimated future costs associated with the current
year reserve additions. Such expenses include property acquisitions, well
costs, lease rentals, and abandonments. The cost of acquiring unproved
properties and drilling exploratory wells are deferred until the properties
are evaluated and determined to be either productive or nonproductive, at
which time they are charged to expense. There were no deferred acquisition
and exploration costs at December 31, 1995 and 1994.
The provision for income taxes is based on the "liability" method
computed by applying the current statutory income tax rate to the difference
between the year end RRA valuation of proved reserves and the tax basis in
the properties less estimated investment tax credits and statutory depletion
associated with future development costs.
7. Commitments and Contingencies:
- -------------------------------------
There were no commitments or contingencies known to management at
December 31, 1995.

Notes to Financial Statements, Continued
----------------------------------------
December 31, 1995 and 1994
8. Related Party Transactions:
- ----------------------------------
On January 27, 1992, the Company issued its one-year note for
$35,000 to Clayton Corporation, a company controlled by E.J. Huff, with
interest at 8% per annum. On January 27, 1993, the note was renewed
and interest paid by issuance of a note for $2,800. On January 27, 1994,
an additional note for $2,800 was issued for interest which was included in
accrued interest at December 31, 1993. The notes were paid in full in 1994.
9. Environmental Liabilities:
- ---------------------------------
The company's oil and gas operations are subject to various
federal,
state, and local laws and regulations regarding environmental and ecological
matters. These laws and regulations, among other things, impose liability on
the Company, as a lessee under an oil and gas lease for the cost of pollution
clean-up resulting from operations, subject the lessee to liability for
pollution damages, require suspension or cessation of operations in affected
areas and impose restrictions on the injection of liquids into subsurface
aquifers that may contain groundwater.
As of December 31, 1995, the Company was not aware of any
environmental claims which would have a material impact upon the Company's
financial position or results of operations.
10. Reverse stock split and Treasury Stock:
- -----------------------------------------------
During 1994, the Company effected a reverse stock split pursuant to
which one new share of the Company's Common Stock was issued in exchange for
each 1,001 shares of the Company's previously outstanding Common Stock. To
the extent that such reverse stock split resulted in any shareholder owning
less than a single full share of the Company's common stock, the Company paid
cash for each such fractional share in an amount equal to the appropriate
fraction of $5.90 per whole share (which represents the fair value of a
whole share after the consummation of the proposed reverse stock split as
determined by the Company's Board of Directors). To the extent that the
proposed reverse stock split resulted in fractional shares held by persons
who owned one or more full shares of the Company's common stock after
consummation of the reverse stock split, such fractional shares were rounded
up or down to the nearest full share. Payments for treasury stock of $8,557
have been charged to additional paid-in capital.
11. Line-of Credit
- ----------------------
In October, 1992, as a source for additional working capital, the
Company obtained a $300,000 line-of-credit with a lending institution,
secured with 10 producing natural gas wells in Clark County, Kansas. As
of December 31, 1994, a total of $132,724 was borrowed from the line-of-
credit. During 1995, the Company reconstructed the debt obligations
associated with the outstanding balance of the line-of-credit. As of
December 31, 1995, the Company had bank debt obligations of $84,987 tied to
an 8.5% note which matures on March 31, 1997. In addition, the Company holds
a $150,000 line of credit secured with eight (8) Clark County, Kansas
producing gas properties against which no sums were borrowed as of December
31, 1995.
12. Value of Office Space and Rental Expense:
- -------------------------------------------------
During the year ended December 31, 1993, and for the six months
ended June 30, 1994, the Company was provided office space by the Company
President. The value of the space provided in amounts of $12,000 in 1993,
and $6,000 in 1994, have been recorded as an expense in the financial
statements for those years and as a capital contribution.

Note 1. Basis of Preparation and Presentation
The Black Dome Energy Corporation financial statements included herein
have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and include all
adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
presentation. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included
in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules
and regulations. The Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to
make the information presented not misleading; however, it is suggested that
these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and the notes thereto which are incorporated by reference in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31,
1995. The financial data for the interim periods may not necessarily be
indicative of results to be expected for the year.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations
-------------------------------------------------
General
- -------
This discussion and analysis covers variations in the balance sheets
December 31, 1995 and September 30, 1996, and in the statements of operations
and changes in cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 1996
and 1995.
The Company is currently preparing a proxy for a meeting of its
shareholders. Due to declining reserves and the difficulty of replacing the
reserves, the Company's liquidity on an ongoing basis is becoming difficult
to maintain and the Company will present to its shareholders a motion to
consider possible liquidation.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
Working capital (which incorporates current and deferred obligations)
increased slightly by $2,137 during the year ended December 31, 1995. This
followed a working capital increase of $84,031 in 1994. Working capital at
September 30, 1996 was $(76,666). Cash increased by $167,203 from December
31, 1995 to September 30, 1996, primarily due to better prices on existing
oil and gas properties.
The current ratio deficit was reduced from $190,692 to $76,666, an
improvement in liquidity of $114,026 during the nine months ended September
30, 1996.
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
During the nine months ended September 30, 1996, the Company experienced
an increase in the price it received from oil and gas sales. The increase in
oil and gas sales for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, compared to
September 30, 1995, was $113,381, while production costs during the same
period decreased by $6,454. Production costs for the nine month period ended
September 30, 1995 were $141,944 as compared to $135,490 for nine months
ended September 30, 1996. Depreciation and depletion during the comparable
period increased $61,828 as a result of increased production, with a
corresponding increase in production taxes. General and Administrative
expenses were lower by $2,104 for the September 30, 1996 period as compared
to September 30, 1995. General and Administrative expenses for the nine
month period ended September 30, 1995 were $177,401 compared to $175,297 for
the same period ended September 30, 1996.
Restructuring of the Company's operations and tighter control on costs
resulted in decreases of $6,454 in production costs and $2,104 in general and
administrative costs during the nine month period ended September 30, 1996.
Interest income has decreased in the past few years both because of
smaller amounts of invested cash and lower interest rates.
The Company's management believes all adjustments to the statements are
of a normal and recurring nature and that no non-recurring entries have been
made.

(1) On May 11, 1991, the Company entered into a four-year Employment
Contract with Mr. Edgar J. Huff, which provides for deferred compensation of
$60,000 per year to be payable in July 1994 ($180,000). In July 1994,
$140,000 of the $180,000 deferred compensation was paid and $40,000
of the $180,000 compensation was further deferred until 1995. The
Page 30
<PAGE>
$60,000 deferred salary for 1994, and the $9,600 bonus for 1994 due to be
paid in January 1995 have been further deferred, and are carried on the
books of the Corporation as a liability.
(2) Mr. Huff's Employment Contract dated May 11, 1991, also provides
for the payment of an annual bonus in the amount of $9,600. Mr. Huff's 1993
earned bonus of $9,600 was not paid as of December 31, 1993, however it was
paid during fiscal year 1994. During fiscal 1994, Mr. Huff received the
1993 earned bonus which was paid in stock and cash. The earned bonus of
$9,600 for 1994 due in January 1995 has been further deferred.
(3) In 1994, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the
issuance of 7,500,000 shares of no par value restricted common stock, plus
a cash payment of $225.00 to Mr. Huff as payment of the contractual bonus of
$9,600 earned by Mr. Huff for the calendar year 1993. The Board of Directors
determined the price of $0.00125 per share to be a fair and reasonable
value to the Company for such shares when considering, among other things,
the current net tangible book value of the Company's assets, its existing
debt
obligations, the current lack of any existing trading market for the
Company's
shares, the absence of any market makers for the Company's shares, the lack
of any ascertainable market value for the Company's common stock, and the
restricted nature of the shares to be issued.
(4) On July 1, 1991, the Company entered into a three-year Employment
Contract with Mr. Joseph R. Albi, Jr. which provides for annual compensation
of $60,000 per year ($5,000/month) and the issuance of 7,256,000 shares of
the restricted no par value Common Stock of the Company valued at $.00125
per share or $9,070. The shares were restricted for the term of Mr. Albi's
contract which began on July 1, 1991 and ended on June 30, 1994 and were
forfeitable as follows: If Mr. Albi left the employ of the Company prior to
June 30, 1992, all of the shares would be forfeited; prior to June 30, 1993,
two-thirds of the shares would be forfeited; and prior to June 30, 1994,
one-third of the shares would be forfeited. Mr. Albi left the employ of the
Company on June 30, 1994 and became vested in the entire 7,256,000 shares
of restricted no par value common stock of the Company.

On May 1, 1993, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted an IRS
approved (Model Form 5035-A) Salary Deferred Simplified Employee Pension
Plan (SAR-SEP) allowing eligible salaried employees to contribute (through
elective deferrals) a portion of their salary on a before tax basis to
individual IRA accounts set up on behalf of the Company. Should employee
contributions be such that the Plan is deemed "top-heavy" for any Plan year
(as defined by the IRS), the Company will be required to contribute an
amount to non-key employees (not to exceed 3% of their annual compensation)
for that plan year. During fiscal year ended December 31, 1995, the Company
contributed $666 to the IRA accounts of non-key employees to satisfy "top-
heavy" Plan requirements for the year 1995.
Other Compensation
- ------------------
No other compensation (not covered by the above categories) was paid
or distributed during the last fiscal year to any executive officer of
the Company.
Employment Contracts and Termination of Employment and Change of Control
Arrangements
Effective December 31, 1994, the Board of Directors approved a new
three-year employment agreement with the President of the Company, Mr. Edgar
J. Huff, for his continued services. The Agreement became effective January
1, 1995. It is a standard employment agreement with standard disability,
death and term clauses, providing for a deferred salary of $100,000 for
the year 1995 to be paid on January 5, 1996; a deferred salary of $125,000
for the year 1996 to be paid on January 5, 1997 and a deferred salary of
$150,000 for the year 1997 to be paid on January 5, 1998. The agreement
further provides for the Company to carry insurance on the life of Mr. Huff
in the amount of $250,000. Premiums are to be paid by the Company and
such sum shall be payable to the Company in the event of Mr. Huff's demise
during the term of the Employment Agreement. The Employment Agreement
further provides that, should there not be sufficient cash each year as
provided in the agreement so that the lump sum is not available, then Mr.
Huff may be paid with any class of the Company's stock as may be mutually
agreed between Mr. Huff and the Company; provided, however, that there
shall be deducted from all compensation paid to Mr. Huff, such sums,
including, but without limitation to, social security, income tax withholding
and unemployment insurance, as the Company is by law obligated to do.
Page 33
<PAGE>
The Employment Agreement may be mutually terminated prior to the
maximum period of three (3) years whereupon Mr. Huff shall be entitled to all
current and deferred compensation earned by him to the date of termination.
The Company has no compensatory plan or arrangement, including payments
to be received from the Company, with respect to any individual named
above for the latest or the next preceding fiscal year, if such plan or
arrangement results or will result from the resignation, retirement or any
other termination of such individual's employment with the Company, or
from a change in control of the Company or a change in the individual's
responsibilities following a change in control.
