(d) During the last five years, the Reporting Person has not been

(e) During the last five years, the Reporting Person has not been a
party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of

(f) The Reporting Person is a United States citizen.
ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.
The shares of Common Stock owned by the Reporting Person were acquired in
exchange for 2,846.211 shares of the common stock of Cheniere Energy Operating
Co., Inc. ("Operating"), concurrently with the exchange by the other
stockholders of Operating for new shares of the Issuer totalling in aggregate
approximately 93% of the total issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock
(the "Exchange"), in connection with the reorganization of the Issuer
consummated on July 3, 1996 (the "Reorganization") pursuant to and in
accordance with a certain Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated as of
April 16, 1996 (the "Reorganization Agreement") among the Issuer, Operating,
the stockholders of Operating, including the Reporting Person, and Buddy
Young.
The Reorganization Agreement is Exhibit A to this Statement. The
description of the Reorganization Agreement contained herein is qualified in
its entirety by reference to the full text of the Reorganization Agreement
which is incorporated herein by reference to such Exhibit A, and made a part
hereof.

ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.
The purpose of the transaction to which this Statement relates was to
obtain control of the Issuer in furtherance of the Reorganization of the
Issuer. On July 3, 1996, a special meeting of stockholders of the Issuer was
called (the "Special Meeting") to approve the Reorganization, including the
divestiture of the then existing television production and health information
business of the Issuer, and the Exchange, and, in connection therewith, to
amend the certificate of incorporation of the Issuer as follows:
1. to change the authorized capital stock of the Issuer to a total
of 21,000,000 shares, comprised of 20,000,000 shares of Common
Stock, par value $.003 per share, and 1,000,000 shares of
preferred stock, the rights, powers and preference of which
shall be set by resolution of the Board of Directors of the
Issuer;
2. to change the name of the Issuer to Cheniere Energy, Inc. from
BEXY Communications, Inc.; and
3. to add a provision limiting the liability of the Issuer's
directors and to provide for indemnification of officers and
directors of the Issuer to the fullest extent permitted by
Delaware law.
In addition, at the Special Meeting, the stockholders of the Issuer
elected three new directors nominated by Operating, including the Reporting
Person. Immediately following the consummation of the Reorganization, the
Board of Directors of the Issuer elected an additional director and elected
new executive officers of the Issuer, including the election of the Reporting
Person as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Issuer.
It is the current intention of the Issuer that shares of the
newly-authorized class of preferred stock will be issued in connection with
corporate finance transactions. However, because of the ability of the Board
of Directors of the Issuer to set by resolution of the Board, the rights,
powers and preferences of the preferred stock, the preferred stock could be
utilized as an antitakeover device, causing potential purchasers of the
Issuer's capital stock to incur additional costs and otherwise discourage a
potential bidder for the Common Stock.
The Reporting Person acquired the shares of Common Stock reported in this
Statement with the intent and purpose of acquiring control of the Issuer. The
Reporting Person has no present intention of either acquiring additional
shares or disposing of his shares of Common Stock. Because of the amount of
Common Stock owned by the Reporting Person and by virtue of his offices as
President, Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Issuer, the Reporting
Person may be deemed to control the Issuer.
The Reporting Person does not anticipate that there will be any change in
the Issuer's dividend policy with respect to the Common Stock, although, in
the event of the issuance of shares of a series of preferred stock, the
Reporting Person anticipates that dividends would be paid on such series.
