                          TERRITORIAL RESOURCES, INC.
                    Notes to Condensed Financial Statements
                        September 30, 1996 (Unaudited)

(1)  The information presented in this report on Form 10-QSB is condensed from
     what would appear in annual financial statements.  Accordingly, the
     financial statements included  herein should be read in conjunction with
     the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the
     Territorial Resources, Inc., March 31, 1996 Form 10-KSB.  The financial
     statements included herein include all adjustments that in the opinion of
     management are necessary in order to make the financial statements not
     misleading.

(2)  The results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of
     results to be expected of the Company for the fiscal year ended March 31,
     1997, due to seasonal or other factors.  The Company believes that the
     interim period reports filed on Form 10-Q are representative of its
     financial position, changes in financial position and results of operations
     for the periods covered thereby.

(3)  There is no provision for income taxes for the six-month period ended
     September 30, 1996.

(4)  Subsequent Transactions.  In October 1996, Territorial issued to certain
     non-U.S. persons 112,500 shares (the "Series B Preferred Shares") of its
     newly designated voting Preferred Stock, Series B, $0.10 par value each, a
     majority of which were acquired by affiliates of the Company.  Each Series
     B Preferred Share is convertible, after March 31, 1997, following certain
     events, into five shares of Common Stock.  In early November 1996,
     Territorial also issued, again to non-U.S. persons, an aggregate of 142,500
     shares of Common Stock.  The Company received an aggregate of approximately
     (US) $206,300 in connection with the sale of such Common Stock and such
     Series B Preferred Shares, and these proceeds were used to reduce the
     outstanding amounts payable balance (see Item 2 - Management's Discussion
     and Analysis or Plan of Operations).



Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation

     During the second quarter ended September 30, 1996, the primary focus of
operations of Territorial Resources, Inc. ("Territorial" or the "Company")
continued to be its varying direct and indirect interests in certain oil and gas
related rights which it holds in the Tamtsag Basin of northeastern Mongolia.  A
portion of those interests are owned indirectly by Territorial as a result of
its interests in SOCO Tamtsag Mongolia, Inc., a Delaware close corporation
("SOTAMO").

     Results of Drilling Program.  In mid-October 1996, Territorial announced
the results of the 1996 drilling program in the Tamtsag Basin.  The SOTAMO 19-2
well, located in a contract area in which Territorial owns approximately a
13.22% interest, was drilled in late 1995 and suspended for the winter of 1995-
96, and is being completed as a low rate producing oil well.  The well was
stimulated and swabbed during the summer of 1996 in efforts to clean out
drilling mud and lost circulation material. The well produced 41 degrees API oil
at various rates by swabbing from perforations between 8,865 feet and 8,944 feet
and will be placed on production by pump. Production rates are yet to be
determined. The oil pay zone was severely damaged due to lost circulation when
the well was drilled. A number of seismically-controlled structures have been
identified in close proximity to the 19-2 well. The Company intends to drill a
delineation well in early 1997.

                                       8
<PAGE>
 
     The SOTAMO 22-1 well, located in a contract area in which Territorial again
owns approximately a 13.23% interest, was drilled in the summer of 1996 to a
total depth of approximately 8,589 feet.  No oil shows were encountered in the
Lower Cretaceous-Upper Jurassic interval penetrated; however, approximately
2,100 feet of reservoir quality sands with porosities as high as 28% were
encountered above basement.

     The SOTAMO 21-1 well, located in a contract area in which Territorial owns
approximately an 11.24% interest, was also drilled in the summer of 1996 and
penetrated approximately 26 feet of oil saturated sand with approximately 18
percent porosity in the upper part of the Lower Cretaceous-Upper Jurassic
Tsagaantsav Formation.  A drill-stem test of the interval between 6,272.6 feet
and 6,307.4 feet recovered 886 feet of medium gravity oil.  The well has been
suspended until completion and production equipment can be installed.  A number
of prospects and well locations have been identified offsetting 21-1 which are
expected to be drilled after the well is evaluated.

     Administrative Expenses.  During the quarter ended September 30, 1996, the
Company incurred additional administrative expenses primarily as a result of its
establishment of an office in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, and certain related
costs and expenses incurred in order to attract management and administrative
personnel at the Calgary office.

     Transaction with Asia Energy Ltd.  In mid-July 1996, Territorial issued to
Asia Energy Ltd. ("AEL") 1,918,750 shares of common stock, no par value ("Common
Stock"), of Territorial primarily in exchange for approximately $223,000 in
cash, five shares of SOTAMO, the elimination of a payable to AEL of $25,000, and
the cancellation of an option agreement pursuant to which AEL had been granted
the right to acquire certain shares of SOTAMO from Territorial.  Territorial
also agreed to pay certain administration-related costs and expenses on behalf
of AEL in the future.

     Subsequent Transactions.  In October 1996, Territorial issued to certain
non-U.S. persons 112,500 shares (the "Series B Preferred Shares") of its newly
designated voting Preferred Stock, Series B, $0.10 par value each, a majority of
which were acquired by affiliates of the Company.  Each Series B Preferred Share
is convertible, after March 31, 1997, following certain events, into five shares
of Common Stock.  In early November 1996, Territorial also issued, again to non-
U.S. persons, an aggregate of 142,500 shares of Common Stock.  The Company
received an aggregate of $206,300 in connection with the sale of such Common
Stock and such Series B Preferred Shares.

     Other.  Management does not anticipate revenues to be generated from the
Company's Mongolian operations in the short term.  As a result, the Company will
seek additional, outside sources of working capital in order to fund its
operations and commitments, including its mandatory financial contributions
arising under an agreement among the shareholders of SOTAMO.

     Management currently estimates that Territorial's minimum working capital
commitments through the end of the current fiscal year will require it to secure
additional funds of approximately $200,000.  Such estimate is subject to change
based on a number of factors, including among other additional costs that may be
incurred in connection with its investment in SOTAMO.  Such additional working
capital funds may be sought through the sale of direct or indirect interests in
Territorial's projects and assets or, when appropriate, the sale of Territorial
securities or borrowing (or a combination of one or more of the foregoing).
There can be no assurance, however, that such additional funds will be available
to the Company upon terms deemed acceptable to management.  In the event such
funds are not secured, Territorial may be required to forfeit all or a portion
of its interests in SOTAMO.

Series B Preferred Stock

          There is hereby created a series of Preferred Stock of the corporation
consisting of one hundred twelve thousand five hundred (112,500) shares and
designated as "Preferred Stock, Series B" (hereinafter referred to as the
"Series B Preferred Stock").  The Series B Preferred Stock shall have the
following designations, preferences, limitations, and relative rights:

          1.  Dividend Provisions.  The holders of Series B Preferred Stock
shall be entitled to participate with holders of the Common Stock in any
dividends declared and paid with respect to the Common Stock on the basis that
the amount of such dividend paid in respect of each outstanding share of Series
B Preferred Stock will equal the amount of the dividend in respect of each share
of Common Stock times the Conversion Rate (as defined in Paragraph 3 below) as
of the record date for determining stockholders entitled to such dividend.

          2.  Liquidation Provisions.  In the event of any liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary,
and after the full preferential liquidation amount has been paid to, or
determined and set apart for, all other series of Preferred Stock hereafter
authorized and issued, if any, the remaining assets of the corporation available
for distribution to stockholders shall be distributed ratably to the holders of
Common Stock and the holders of Series B Preferred Stock on the basis that the
amount of such distribution paid in respect of each outstanding share of Series
B Preferred Stock will equal the amount of the distribution in respect of each
share of Common Stock times the Conversion Rate (as defined in Paragraph 3
below) as of the record date for determining stockholders entitled to such
distribution.  In the event the assets of the corporation available for
distribution to its stockholders are insufficient to pay the full preferential
liquidation amount per share required to be paid on the corporation's various
other series of Preferred Stock that may then be outstanding, the entire amount
of assets of the corporation available for distribution to stockholders shall be
paid up to their respective full liquidation amounts first to the such other
series of Preferred Stock with a liquidation preference, which amounts shall be
distributed ratably among holders of each such series of Preferred Stock, and
the holders of Common Stock and the Series B Preferred Stock shall receive
nothing. A reorganization or any other

                                       1

consolidation or merger of the corporation with or into any other corporation,
or any other sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the corporation,
shall not be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the
corporation within the meaning of this Section, and the Series B Preferred Stock
shall be entitled only to (a) the right provided in any agreement or plan
governing the reorganization or other consolidation, merger or sale of assets
transactions, (b) the rights contained in the Colorado Business Corporation Act
and (c) the rights contained in other numbered Paragraphs of this "Series B
Preferred Stock" section.

     3. Conversion Provisions. The Series B Preferred Stock shall be subject to
the following conversion provisions:

        (a)  Conversion.

             (1) Subject to the terms and provisions of this Paragraph 3, each
        share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be convertible and shall be
        deemed to have been converted (the "Conversion"), without further
        action, into five (5) shares of Common Stock (which number of shares of
        Common Stock shall be subject to adjustment as provided in this
        Paragraph 3) of the corporation immediately following the close of
        business on the first day (the "Conversion Date") after March 31, 1997,
        that the corporation shall have a sufficient number of authorized but
        unissued shares of Common Stock so as to permit all shares of Series B
        Preferred Stock then issued to be so converted. For purposes of the
        preceding sentence, the number of shares of authorized but unissued
        shares of Common Stock shall not include any shares of Common Stock that
        are subject to issuance upon either (a) the exercise of any then
        outstanding stock option, warrant or other right to acquire shares of
        Common Stock or (b) the conversion or exchange of any debenture or other
        security (other than the Series B Preferred Stock) convertible into or
        exchangeable for shares of Common Stock. The ratio of the number of
        shares of Common Stock into which each share of Series B Preferred Stock
        shall be convertible is sometimes referred to herein as the "Conversion
        Rate."

             (2) Not later than thirty (30) days following the Conversion Date,
        the corporation shall deliver to each Holder of shares of Series B
        Preferred Stock a written notice (the "Conversion Notice") of such
        conversion, identifying the shares of Series B Preferred Stock (and the
        certificate number or numbers thereof) that have been so converted;
        provided, however, that failure of the corporation to provide such
        notice shall not affect the validity of the Conversion.

             (3) No fractional shares of Series B Preferred Stock may be
        converted. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon
        conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock. However, in lieu of the
        corporation's causing or permitting the conversion into fractional
        shares of Common Stock, it shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of
        such fractional interest in an amount equal to such fractional interest
        multiplied 

                                       2
<PAGE>
 
        by the then Current Market Value (as defined in Paragraph 6
        below) determined by the corporation as of the Conversion Date.

             (4) The corporation shall pay in cash the cash payment, if any, due
        as provided in clause (a)(3) above, which cash payment shall be due on
        the date that the certificate or certificates representing the shares of
        Common Stock to be issued in connection with such conversion are due to
        be issued.

             (5) The corporation shall have no responsibility to pay any taxes
        with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock or the shares of Common
        Stock into which the Series B Preferred Stock is to be converted.

             (6) The Holder of each certificate representing shares of Series B
        Preferred Stock, following the corporation's delivery of the Conversion
        Notice to such Holder in accordance with the provisions of this
        Paragraph 3, shall promptly return such certificate for cancellation to
        the corporation at its principal place of business (currently located at
        450 Sam Houston Parkway East, Suite 140, Houston, Texas 77060, U.S.A.,
        Attention: Corporate Secretary). Whether or not returned, such
        certificate or certificates shall be deemed canceled, and no longer
        representing outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock, effective
        as of the Conversion Date (other than with respect to the right to
        receive accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, on the Series B Preferred
        Stock up to and including the Conversion Date, the right to receive the
        proper number of shares of Common Stock or other consideration upon the
        conversion thereof, and all rights of a holder of Common Stock with
        respect to such shares of Common Stock immediately after the conversion
        of such shares of Series B Preferred Stock). Within thirty (30) days of
        its receipt of such certificate for cancellation, the corporation shall
        complete the issuance of the shares of Common Stock and deliver the same
        to and in the name of the Holder thereof.

        (b) Adjustments to the Conversion Rate.

            (1) If the Common Stock issuable on conversion of the Series B
        Preferred Stock shall be subdivided into a greater number or combined
        into a lesser number of shares of Common Stock, the holders of Series B
        Preferred Stock shall, upon its conversion, be entitled to receive, in
        lieu of the Common Stock which the Holders would have become entitled to
        received but for such change, a number of shares of Common Stock that
        would have been subject to receipt if such shares of Series B Preferred
        Stock had been converted immediately before that change.

            (2) If the Common Stock issuable on conversion of the Series B
        Preferred Stock shall be changed into the same or a different number of
        shares of any other class or classes of stock, whether by capital
        reorganization, reclassification, or otherwise 

                                       3
<PAGE>
 
        (other than a subdivision or combination of shares provided for above),
        the holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall, upon its conversion, be
        entitled to receive, in lieu of the Common Stock which the Holders would
        have become entitled to receive but for such change, a number of shares
        of such other class or classes of stock that would have been subject to
        receipt if such shares of Series B Preferred Stock had been converted
        immediately before that change.

            (3) If at any time there shall be a capital reorganization of the
        corporation's Common Stock (other than a subdivision, combination,
        reclassification or exchange of shares provided for elsewhere in this
        subsection (b)) or merger of the corporation into another corporation,
        or the sale of the corporation's properties and assets as, or
        substantially as, an entirety to any other person, then, as a part of
        such reorganization, merger or sale, lawful provision shall be made so
        that the Holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall thereafter be
        entitled to receive upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock, the
        number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the
        corporation, or of the successor corporation resulting from such merger,
        to which holders of the Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of the
        Series B Preferred Stock would have been entitled on such capital
        reorganization, merger or sale if the Series B Preferred Stock had been
        converted immediately before that capital reorganization, merger or sale
        to the end that the provisions of this paragraph (b)(3) (including
        adjustment of the Conversion Rate then in effect and number of shares
        purchasable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock) shall be
        applicable after that event as nearly equivalently as may be
        practicable.

            (4) Any adjustments made pursuant to this paragraph (b) shall become
        effective at the close of business on the day upon which such capital
        reorganization, reclassification, reorganization, merger, consolidation,
        sale of assets or other event becomes effective.

        (c) Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each
adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Rate for any shares of Series B
Preferred Stock, the corporation at its expense shall promptly compute such
adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and prepare and
furnish to each Holder affected thereby a certificate setting forth such
adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such
adjustment or readjustment is based. The corporation shall, upon the written
request at any time of any Holder, furnish or cause to be furnished to such
Holder a like certificate setting forth (i) such adjustment and readjustments,
(ii) the Conversion Rate at the time in effect and (iii) the number of shares of
Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other property which at the time would
be received upon the conversion of such Holder's shares of Series B Preferred
Stock.

        (d) Notices of Record Date.  In the event of the establishment by the
corporation of a record of the holders of any class of securities for the
purpose of determining the holders thereof 

                                       4
<PAGE>
 
who are entitled to receive any distribution, the corporation shall mail to each
Holder of Series B Preferred Stock at least twenty (20) days prior to the date
specified therein, a notice specifying the date on which any such record is to
be taken for the purposes of such distribution and the amount and character of
such distribution.

     (e) Reservation of Stock Issuable Upon Conversion.  At all times on and
after the Conversion Date, the corporation shall make available, reserve and
keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock solely
for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the shares of Series B Preferred
Stock such number of its shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be
sufficient to effect the conversion of all then outstanding shares of the Series
B Preferred Stock; and if at any such time following the Conversion Date the
number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient
to effect the conversion of all then outstanding shares of Series B Preferred
Stock, the corporation will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of
its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of
Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purpose.

     (f) Notices.  Any notices required by the provisions of this Paragraph 3 to
be given to the Holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be deemed
given if deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, and addressed to
each Holder at such Holder's address appearing on the books of the corporation.

     4.   Voting Provisions.  The holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock
shall have the right, voting as a single class together with the holders of
Common Stock, to a number of votes equal to the Conversion Rate for each share
of Series B Preferred Stock held by them on each matter submitted to a vote of
the stockholders of the Corporation.  Except to the extent otherwise expressly
provided or required by law, the Series B Preferred Stock shall not entitle the
holders thereof to any voting rights as a separate class, and the consent of the
Holders thereof as a class shall not be required for the taking of any corporate
action.

     5.   Retired Shares.  Any shares of Series B Preferred Stock converted,
purchased or otherwise acquired by the corporation in any manner whatsoever
shall be retired and canceled promptly after the acquisition thereof, and, if
necessary, to provide for the lawful purchase of such shares, the capital
represented by such shares shall be reduced in accordance with the Colorado
Business Corporation Act.  All such shares upon their cancellation shall become
authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock, $0.10 par value each, of the
corporation and may be reissued as part of another series of Preferred Stock,
$0.10 par value each, of the corporation.

     6.   Certain Definitions.  For the purposes of this "Series B Preferred
Stock" section, the term "Current Market Value" per share of Common Stock shall
mean either (i) if shares of Common Stock are then traded over-the-counter in
the U.S., the value shall be deemed to be the 

                                       5
<PAGE>
 
average of the closing bid prices over the thirty (30) day period ending three
(3) days prior to the Conversion Date, (ii) if shares of Common Stock are then
traded on a U.S. national securities exchange or the NASDAQ's National Market
System, the value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing prices on
such exchange or National Market System over the thirty (30) day period ending
three days prior to the Conversion Date, or (iii) if no such trading as
described in clauses (i) and (ii) above then exists, then the Current Market
Value shall be determined in good faith by the corporation.

     7.   U.S. Currency.  Unless expressly provided herein to the contrary, all
payments of cash referred to herein shall be paid in United States Dollars, and
all dollar (or $) amounts referred to herein refer to United States Dollars.
