NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED STATEMENT OF REVENUES AND
DIRECT OPERATING EXPENSES OF THE ACQUIRED PROPERTIES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------


1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying Unaudited Historical Financial Summary represents the
     interests in the revenues and direct operating expenses of the gas and
     condensate producing properties acquired by Amerac Energy Corporation
     (Amerac) from L. B. Industries, Inc., and Larry Barnes (collectively
     "LBI"), on August 16, 1996, effective March 1, 1996, for cash consideration
     of $1.85 million. The producing properties acquired are located in the
     Texan Gardens Field, Hidalgo, Texas.

     The properties acquired were not operated as a separate unit, division or
     other entity by LBI and, accordingly, separate historical financial
     statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
     principles (GAAP) do not exist. A determination of the historical general
     and administrative expenses and other indirect expenses which were
     attributable to the properties acquired would not be possible or indicative
     of the level of such expenses to be incurred by Amerac. The depreciation
     charges of LBI associated with the acquired properties would be based upon
     historical costs and are not relevant to the ongoing financial reporting of
     Amerac, or related investor decisions, since the properties will be
     depreciated over future periods based upon Amerac's acquisition costs. The
     presentation herein of historical financial statements reflecting financial
     position, results of operations and cash flows required by GAAP was not
     practicable in these circumstances. Accordingly, the Historical Financial
     Summary is presented in lieu of the financial statements required under
     Item 310 (b) of Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-B.
 
     The gas and condensate and direct operating expenses shown in the
     Historical Financial Summary may not be representative of future
     operations.

The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows ("standardized
measure") relating to proved oil and gas reserves acquired is calculated in
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 69.  The
standardized measure has been prepared assuming year-end selling prices adjusted
for future fixed and determinable contractual price changes, year-end
development and production costs and a 10% annual discount rate.  The
standardized measure is not the fair market value of the mineral interests sold
and the standardized measure presented for the proved oil and gas reserves is
not representative of their value.

            Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Information
                                  (Unaudited)


The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information
combines the historical information of the Registrant ("Amerac"), including the
January 1996 Fremont Energy Company acquisition, and the properties acquired in
the Texan Gardens Field acquisition ("Acquired Properties") on August 16,  1996,
together with the related pro forma adjustments which are based on estimates and
assumptions explained in further detail in the accompanying notes.  The
pro forma statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and
for the year ended December 31, 1995 reflect the consolidated operations of
Amerac and the Acquired Properties as if these acquisitions were January 1,
1995, as well as if the conversion of the $4.00 Senior Preferred Stock occurred
on January 1, 1995.  The unaudited pro forma balance sheet at June 30, 1996
reflects the transactions as if they had occurred on the last day of the period.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet and condensed
consolidated statements of operations are provided for comparative purposes only
and should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial
statements of the Registrant and the historical unaudited statements of revenues
and direct operating expenses of the Acquired Properties and the related notes
thereto included herewith.  The pro forma information presented is not
necessarily indicative of the future combined financial results or as they might
have been for the periods presented.

     The Company acquired on August 16, 1996, a majority interest in sixteen gas
     wells in the Texas Gardens Field (The "Texan Gardens" acquisition), located
     in Hidalgo County, Texas. Based on a March 1, 1996 effective date, the
     Company estimates that proved reserves associated with this $1.85 million
     acquisition total 4.4 BCFE.

2.   PRO FORMA BALANCE SHEET ADJUSTMENTS

     The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet
     reflects the transaction as of June 30, 1996 and includes the following
     adjustments.

     (a) The cash portion of the purchase price is funded through bank
         borrowings to the limit of available credit with the balance paid in
         cash.

     (b) The aggregate purchase price of $1,855,000 reflects the allocation of
         the purchase price to proved producing properties and includes costs
         and adjustments to the purchase price.

     (c) Bank borrowings are classified as current and long-term notes payable
         based on the actual bank agreement used to fund the acquisitions.

     (d) The $4.00 Senior Preferred Stock conversion is presented by eliminating
         the Preferred Stock balance and recording the additions to Common Stock
         and Additional Paid-in Capital.

3.   PRO FORMA STATEMENT OF OPERATION ADJUSTMENTS

         Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations represents the Pro Forma
         results reflected in the December 31, 1995 Form 10K which includes the
         historical results of operations of Amerac for the year ended December
         31, 1995, and results of operations associated with the January 1996
         Fremont Energy Company acquisition as if this acquisition had been
         effective at the beginning of the period as well as certain immaterial
         acquisitions completed in 1995.

     (b) The information reflected as "Acquired Properties" herewith pertains
         only to the direct operating results from the producing properties
         acquired in the Texan Gardens Field.

     (c) Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense has been computed
         using the units of production method and reflects the Company's
         increased investment in oil and gas properties, increased production
         and estimated reserves related thereto.

     (d) Interest expense was calculated assuming the acquisition took place on
         January 1, 1995. Interest was calculated using a nine and one quarter
         percent (9.25%) annual percentage rate.

   NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION


     (e) No additional general and administrative expense is expected as the
         Company believes it can absorb these operations without additional
         personnel or administrative expense.

     (f) As the Company has a large net operating loss carryforward, no income
         tax provision is required.

     (g) Reflects elimination of Preferred Stock dividends related to the
         conversion to Common Stock as if it occurred at the beginning of the
         period.

4.   EARNINGS PER SHARE

     (a) Net income or loss per common share is computed by dividing the net
         income or loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted
         average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding.

     (b) The weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding is
         adjusted for the conversion of the $4.00 Senior Preferred Stock. The
         conversion of the $4.00 Senior Preferred Stock was approved in an
         annual Stockholder meeting held on July 11, 1996. One share of $4.00
         Senior Preferred Stock was converted to nine (9) shares of Common
         Stock.

5.   OIL AND GAS RESERVE INFORMATION

     represented approximately 17% of Amerac's total proved reserves as of
     December 31, 1995 including the Fremont Energy Company acquisition which,
     after including the Acquired Properties, would have been approximately 30.6
     BCFE. Amerac's reserve quantities were estimated by an independent oil and
     gas reservoir engineering firm; however, the reserve quantities of the
     Acquired Properties were estimated by an in-house petroleum engineers. All
     estimates were prepared in accordance with guidelines established by the
     Securities and Exchange Commission. All of the reserves are located within
     the United States.
