NEVADA ENERGY COMPANY, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION:
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary Combustion
Energy Company, Inc. ("CEC"), a Nevada corporation and its majority
owned subsidiary San Jacinto Power Company ("SJPC"), a Nevada
corporation (See Note 2). On November 30, 1994, the Company's wholly
owned subsidiary CEC completed a merger with Herth Printing and
Business Supplies, Inc. ("HPBS" - see notes 2 and 6). This
acquisition has been treated as a pooling of interests and the
financial statements presented herein reflect the combined results of
the pooled businesses. All significant intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS:
Nevada Energy Company, Inc. ("the Company") was organized on
December 2, 1982, and incorporated under the laws of Delaware on
December 20, 1982, under the name Munson Geothermal, Inc. Pursuant to
an action of the Board of Directors, the Company's name was changed to
Nevada Energy Company, Inc. on December 3, 1990. The Company is
primarily engaged in the development, financing, construction and
operation of geothermal, wind and biomass energy resources which are
used primarily to generate electric power.
The Company filed for reorganization under provisions of Chapter
11 of the Federal Code on March 7, 1988. The Company operated under
the supervision of a trustee from May 8, 1988 until November 20, 1990.
On November 20, 1990, the Company's Plan of Reorganization ("the
Plan") was approved and the Company resumed operation as a reorganized
debtor under the new management, which had developed the
reorganization plan. The Plan was not consummated because the
intended construction financing did not close. The Plan was amended
and re-approved by creditors and shareholders on July 8, 1991 and the
Company emerged from bankruptcy on that date. The Company has
9
<PAGE>
continued to operate in accordance with the amended Plan and received
a final order and decree in January 1995 which concluded the
proceedings.
POWER GENERATION EQUIPMENT IDLE POWER GENERATION EQUIPMENT:
Power generation equipment is carried at of cost and consists of
64 wind turbine generators operated in California by SJPC. On June
30, 1995, SJPC entered into an agreement Wind Power Technologies, Inc.
of Grafton, Wisconsin to sell twenty of its wind turbine generators
together with some associated infrastructure for $650,000. An initial
non-refundable deposit payment of $25,000 was received in July 1995,
with the balance due by November 30, 1995. Subsequently, terms were
revised to provide for payment of $400,000 by November 30, 1995 with
the balance due prior to removal of the assets in December 1995 from
their California location. In a third revision, full payment plus an
additional $50,000 fee was to be payable by February 28, 1996 or all
prior payments would be forfeited (prior payments totaled $25,000).
Subsequently the transaction was cancelled due to non-payment and the
SJPC took the deposit into income. The assets continue to be held and
operated, in addition to other turbines, by SJPC.
Idle power generation equipment includes ten Ormat power plants
capable of producing up to an estimated maximum 3,700 KW average
output valued at $2,751,604 and the dismantled Raft River Power Plant
valued at of $3,031,796 and estimated to be capable of up to 7,200 KW
of output. Total net book value of these assets is $5,404,161. A
recent appraisal (May 1995) of these assets determined the value to be
$6.0 million. Any impairment of these assets could result in a loss
to the Company.
LAND AND BUILDINGS
Included in the assets of HPBS (see above) was a ten thousand
eight hundred (10,800) square foot building containing office space,
print shop and warehouse space valued at $249,600 located on .775
acres of fee land valued at $70,000 located in downtown Reno, NV.
10
<PAGE>
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION:
The Company provides for depreciation of buildings, furniture and
field equipment utilizing straight-line and accelerated methods over
the useful lives of three to twenty-one years beginning when assets
are placed in service. Costs of power generation equipment represents
44 wind turbines together with related infrastructure, in use by the
Company's majority owned subsidiary San Jacinto Power Company, which
has been recorded at acquisition cost and is being depreciated over
the remaining 21 year life of the related Power Purchase Agreement
acquired in the same transaction. Idle geothermal power generation
equipment was adjusted to the lower of cost or appraisal value at
February 29, 1992. Subsequently, provisions for obsolescence have
been provided based on remaining economic life estimated to be
eighteen years at that time. The HPBS building is recorded at
acquired book value and is being depreciated over its useful life of
31 years.
NET INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE:
The net income (loss) per common share is computed based upon the
weighted average number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding
during each period. Class A shares issued in conjunction with the
merger of HPBS and CEC (See Notes 1 and 6) have been treated as issued
at February 28, 1993. Weighted average shares of Class A Common Stock
outstanding were 8,808,485 in the three months ended November 30, 1995
and 3,473,471 in the three months ended November 30, 1994. Weighted
average shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding were 8,771,448 in
the nine months ended November 30, 1995 and 5,964,613 in the nine
months ended November 30, 1994. Shares issuable upon exercise of
options are excluded from the computation since the effect of their
inclusion would be antidilutive. Shares of Class B Common Stock are
excluded from the computation since Class B shareholders do not
participate in cash dividends or earnings of the Company. Shares
issued in the Smith acquisition, but held in escrow between the date
issued, December 15, 1993 and the date of completion of the
acquisition, June 24, 1994, were not included in the computation of
loss per share during the period they were held in escrow.

Company and the Common Stock of New World are collectively referred to
herein as the "Shares". The number of shares to be issued by the
Company and New World were established in an Asset Purchase Agreement
dated July 1, 1993 with no adjustment required due to stock price
variations to date of issue. The Escrow Agreement provides for the
shares of the Company and New World to be held for a two year period
from December 15, 1993, prior to distribution to the sellers. During
the two year period, certain costs arising in connection with the
purchase transaction could result in the number of shares finally
transferred to the seller being reduced. Such costs include
unassessed claims for property taxes, prior environmental infractions,
prior BLM assessments, limited partner claims and other contingent
costs to be assessed against the sellers. There is no provision for
an increase in the number of shares to be distributed.
The Company and New World subsequently engaged in negotiations to
acquire the operating assets of Smith Wind Energy Company ("Smith")
and six affiliated limited partnerships operated by Smith which are
known as Triad A, Triad B, Triad C, Triad D, Triad E, and Triad F
Limited Partnerships (collectively "Triad"). Smith and Triad were
operating a wind turbine energy park in North Palm Springs,
California. Energy sales were pursuant to a long-term contract with
Southern California Edison Company. A total of 77 wind turbines were
then available for operations, together with associated
infrastructure, additional turbine sites,
16
<PAGE>
turbine towers, parts and service equipment and a long-term land lease
with the BLM (collectively, the "Assets"). There are 44 turbines
currently being operated with 20 having been sold in June 1995. Three
turbines were previously sold to NWGP, with the remaining ten (10)
turbines being utilized for operating spare parts reserves.
SJPC was formed for the purpose of acquiring, holding and
operating the Assets to be acquired from Smith and Triad. The
acquisition of the Smith/Triad assets by SJPC was completed and
effective on June 24, 1994. The purchase price was equal to the agreed
value of the shares plus assumed liabilities totalling approximately
$293,957 for long-term secured debt and certain delinquent property
taxes and totaled $1,038,029.
The total cost was allocated based on managements estimate of
fair market value of assets acquired, except for prepaid BLM rent
which was valued at cost, as follows:
Field Equipment $ 21,177
Prepaid BLM Rent 46,892
Power Sales Contract 52,500
Power Generation Equipment 917,460
------------
Total $ 1,038,029

stock due to the Company's effective ownership of 60% of the Class B
shares held by NEP-1LP, plus subsequent cash investments, less
estimated partnership losses.

Project for approximately $5.5 million dollars. NGPP has received net
cash distributions of approximately $4,3 million dollars. The Company
computed share of the proceeds is approximately $585,511. The Company
received $508,018 in July 1995 and believes the remaining balance to
be uncollectible. No receivable has been recorded at November 30,
1995. NGPP's sale of it 50% interest in the Brady Power Project is

refurbishing wind power equipment of $256,165, advances to, and investments
in, partnerships were $1,349 and a cash distribution of $49,990 was paid to
the minority holder in San Jacinto Power. Sales of assets generated $2,500
in cash. Cash flows from financing activities in the quarter ended November
30, 1994 provided $45,683 in net cash in-flow. Receipts from cash sales of
stock were $247,546. Net short-term borrowings were $46,064, with repayments
of $133,243 on short-term borrowings and $24,471 on long-term debt.
Withdrawals by owners from the acquired HPBS were $90,213 prior to the
acquisition and were treated as cash dividends.
To date, the Company has enjoyed liquidity from receipt of management fees,
receipt of dividend income (from the Company's majority owned subsidiary San
Jacinto Power Company), through the sale of shares of Class A Common Stock and
litigation recoveries.

The majority of ongoing expenses have been incurred in initiating the
expansion of the San Jacinto Power Company wind project, development of future
business, professional fees and operating overhead.

CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company has been unable to finance operations from revenues and cash
flow. The Company has been financing operations from the sale of its Class A
Common stock, asset sales and litigation recoveries. The Company has acquired
non-energy related businesses for purposes of increasing cash flow.
The Company has an asset base which includes several electric power
generating units and related assets (currently not in service and with a net
book value of $5,404,161), unencumbered by debt, from which the Company plans to
increase revenues and earnings. The profitable utilization of these generating
units is likely to be a major factor in determining the future of the Company
and its underlying share value. Management is continually developing an
reviewing proposals to deploy its idle power generating assets.
Historically, the Company has conducted its business affairs as a
development stage enterprise which has been subject to all of the risks inherent
to establishing new lines of business. To date, all such development has been
financed through the sales of assets, equity financings, litigation recoveries,
non-recurring development fees received from partnership interests and
management fees. The Company has only recently commenced limited operations
associated with its interests in operating subsidiaries.
The Company will require substantial amounts of capital to meet its goal of
acquiring, developing, constructing and operating a portfolio of power plant(s).
The Company may seek to raise additional funds through the sales of debt and/or
equity, asset sales, bank borrowings or other collaborative arrangements with
corporate partner(s) or other sources. There are presently no commitments for
any such financing and there can be no assurance that such financing will be
available when needed or on terms acceptable to the Company. Further,
insufficient funding may require the Company to delay, scale back or eliminate
its planned expansion, acquisition, development and corporate activities.
DEBT
As of November 30, 1995, the Company's total current liabilities were
$336,012, including $72,897 of San Jacinto Power. Current accounts payable
were $115,229 and $24,092 was payable to New World Grid Power ("NWGP") for
maintenance and refurbishment of wind turbines owned by the Company's
consolidated subsidiary San Jacinto Power. (NWGP is a subsidiary of the
minority owner of San Jacinto.) Short-term borrowings of $52,251 include
insurance premium finance notes of $24,269 and $27,982 assumed in the CEC
acquisition of HPBS. Other liabilities of $77,508 included accrued audit
expenses of $36,000, $25,000 deposit as proposed equipment sale, $4,271 in
collected sales taxes payable and other miscellaneous accruals of $11,980.
The short-term borrowings of $52,251 at November 30, 1995 compared to
short-term borrowings of $73,275 at February 28, 1994. February 1995 borrowings
were related to business insurance financing and the current
30
<PAGE>
portion of the HPBS mortgage note payable. The long-term debt is related to the
mortgage on land and building acquired by the Company's wholly owned subsidiary
CEC. Remaining liabilities subject to compromise represent the long-term
settlement amount for withholding taxes and related penalties and interest due
to the IRS associated with prior bankruptcy proceedings. Under the terms of a
settlement proposed by the Company, this amount is being repaid over a term of 3
years, in monthly installments of $4,940, accruing interest at the rate of 7%
per annum. The Company remained current on its payment schedule since this
proposal was made in October 1993.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
REVENUES
Revenues for the quarter ended November 30, 1995 totaled $355,744 and
consisted of energy sales from San Jacinto Power Company of $105,666, HPBS
printing and business supply sales of $250,078. Comparable revenues for the
quarter ended November 30, 1994 were $242,352 from energy sales and $221,814
from printing and business supply sales. Revenue from energy sales were
adversely impacted by lower average wind speeds and a reduced number of turbines
in service.
Revenues for the nine months ended November 30, 1995 totaled $1,403,117 and
consisted of energy sales from San Jacinto Power Company of $649,899, HPBS
printing and business supply sales of $753,218. Comparable revenues for the
nine months ended November 30, 1994 totaled $1,338,671 with $594,134 from energy
sales and $744,537 from printing and business supply sales.
The decline in printing and business supply revenues is attributed to a
shift in emphasis from office supply sales, which is more competitive and less
susceptible to cost control, to more emphasis on custom print work. The outside
office supply sales position was left unfilled for most of the year.
Costs and Expenses
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales for the three months ended November 30, 1995 were $170,879 or
68.3% of sales versus $128,127 or 57.8% of sales for the comparable quarter
ended November 30, 1994. The cost increase was a direct result of a substantial
increase in the cost of paper stock which occurred over several months. This
trend also affected costs in the nine months ended November 30, 1995 which were
$523,599 or 69.5% of sales for the period versus $483,141 or 64.9%.
Cost of Operations
Th cost of operations for the three months ended November 330, 1995 were
$166,218, of which $146,128 represented the cost of operations of the San
Jacinto Power Company wind turbine site, including $98,089 in
31
<PAGE>
repairs and maintenance cost, $22,353 in BLM land lease cost, $4,371 in property
taxes and $21,315 in other site expenses. Comparable costs in 1994 were
$62,983, including $27,536 in repairs and maintenance costs, $22,342 in BLM land
rent, $3,625 in property taxes and $9,480 in other site costs.
Cost of operations for the nine months ended November 30, 1995 were
$502,432, of which $463,832 represented the cost of operations of the San
Jacinto Power Company wind turbine site, including $316,397 in repairs and
maintenance cost, $67,551 in BLM land lease cost, $10,9684 in property taxes and
$68,916 in other site expenses. Comparable costs for the nine months ended
November 30, 1994 were $254,319, of which $247,016 represented the cost of
operating the wind turbine site and included $194,408 for repairs and
maintenance, $39,281 in BLM land rent, $5,474 in property taxes and $7,853 in
other site expenses. SJPC repairs and maintenance costs were higher in the nine
months ending November 30, 1995 as compared to the nine months ending November
30, 1994 because 1994 included only five (5) months of actual activity. SJPC
acquired the assets and began its actual operations on June 24, 1994.
Maintenance services have been provided on a fixed fee plus cost basis by NWGP.
NWGP was notified October 8, 1995 of termination of its service agreement. SJPC
has executed an agreement with a new service provider, Desertron Electric,
effective January 1996. NWGP will no longer provide operation and maintenance
services. Desertron is a proprietorship formed by a former employee of NWGP.
SJPC's minority interest holder has approved this agreement. The Company
anticipates significant savings in the area of operations and maintenance as a
result of this new agreement.
The changes in Herth operating expenses from prior periods were a result of
normal fluctuations in business activity.
Other Costs and Expenses
In each of the three months periods ended November 30, 1995 and November
30, 1994, depreciation and amortization expense included $94,810 in provisions
for obsolescence of idle equipment. Depreciation on field and office equipment
was $15,330 in 1995, including $11,837 of depreciation on the wind turbines and
related infrastructure, and $26,741 in 1994, including $12,132 of depreciation
on wind turbines and related infrastructure.
In each of the nine months periods ended November 30, 1995 and November 30,
1994, depreciation and amortization expense included $284,429 in provisions for
obsolescence of idle equipment. Depreciation on field and office equipment was
$43,410 in 1995, including $32,7721 of depreciation on the wind turbines and
related infrastructure, and $36,578 in 1994, including $20,456 of depreciation
on wind turbines and related infrastructure. The wind farm was only under
control of the Company and included in operating expenses for five months of the
nine months period ending November 30, 1994.
Professional fees for the quarter ended November 30, 1995 were
32
<PAGE>
$95,688, including $28,998 in legal fees, $13,875 in audit fees and $52,815 in
other outside services. Other outside services included $45,000 in the quarter
ended November 30, 1995 paid to the former owner/general partner of Smith/Triad
under a two year $15,000 per month agreement. Comparable quarter ending
November 30, 1994 amounts were professional fees of $145,864, principally for
general legal fees $39,706, accounting and audit fees $27,231 and other outside
services $75,666, also including $45,000 paid to the former owner/general
partner of Smith/Triad.
Professional fees for the nine months ended November 30, 1995 were
$327,042, including $145,864 in legal fees, $52,420 in accounting and audit fees
and $185,030 in other outside services including $135,000 for services under an
agreement with the former owner/general partner of Smith/Triad. Comparable
November 30, 1994 amounts totaled $392,237, including $144,920 in legal fees,
$77,257 in accounting and audit fees and $170,160 in other outside services
including $32,000 for financial consulting and $138,160 for public relations.

public and shareholder relations $7,246, general office expenses $20,481,
directors' fees and expenses $24,675 and other miscellaneous expenses $12,027.
Administrative expenses totaling $285,643 for the three months ending November

and shareholder relations $156,328, general office expenses $35,696, directors'
fees and expenses $9,992 and other miscellaneous expenses $3,711. Interim
fiscal 1995 public and shareholder relations cost were significantly higher
than in fiscal 1996 because in fiscal 1995 the Company had entered into a
contract, estimated to cost approximately $72,000 per month, with a public
relations firm. The contract was for eighteen months for various public and
shareholder relations services and the development of the Company's markets and
potential merger candidates. Payment was in the form of the Company's Class A
common shares. The program proved ineffective and as a consequence, a
significant portion of the contract amount was expensed in fiscal 1995.
Administrative expenses totaled $468,829 for the nine months ending
November 30, 1995 were principally for salaries, wages and benefits of $273,581,
public and shareholder relations $19,861, general office expenses $86,409,
directors' fees and expenses $60,999 and other miscellaneous expenses $132,337.

OTHER INCOME AND EXPENSES
Consolidated interest of $3,387 was earned on cash carried in money market
funds in the quarter ended November 30, 1995 compared to $1,663
33
<PAGE>
in the same period of 1994. Interest income for the nine months ended November
30, 1995 was $6,649 compared to $6,615 in 1994. Interest income increased due
to funds available from the Company's sale of its interest in the Brady Power
Project in May 1995.
Other income of $508,018 in the nine months ending November 30, 1995 was a
result of the Company's sale of its interest in the Brady Power Project.
Constructed in 1991 and 1992, the plant became operational in 1992. As a result
of the high total cost to complete the project (approximately $74 million as
compared to original proposed cost of $46 million), the project had not
generated the cumulative cash flows from operations that had been expected. As
a result, the Company had received no cash distributions as had originally been
anticipated. The Company is to receive total proceeds of $585,511 ($508,138
having been received to date and the balance having subsequently been determined
to be uncollectible). The Company had no cost basis in this investment. Other
than certain developer fees received in prior years, the Company had received no
income or cash flow from its investment in BPP through NEP-1LP. There will be
no impact on future results of the Comapany as a result of the sale of its
interest in BPP, because no income or cash flow had been anticipated for the
forseeable future.
Other income in other comparable periods is primarily from sales of scrap,
except in the nine months ended November 30, 1994 it included $38,621 in
developer fees received from the Brady Power Project.
Interest expense of $3,972 for the quarter ending November 30, 1995 and
$6,611 for the quarter ended November 30, 1994 was related to interest accrued
at statutory rates on the remaining liability to the IRS on prior payroll tax
withholding, short-term borrowings related to insurance premium financing and
the mortgage note on the building owned by Herth Printing and Business Supply.
Interest for the nine months ending November 30, 1995 was $17,059 compared to
$28,290 for the nine months ending November 30, 1994. Interest expense was
related to similar debt as for the quarter end periods with totals declining due
to reduced debt levels.
Minority interests
Minority interests represent the share of (income) or loss allocable to the
49.99% minority holder in the Company';s consolidated subsidiary SJPC. For the
quarter ended November 30, 1995 the amount was income of $60,522 resulting from
losses by San Jacinto of $120,923 for the period. The comparable amount for the
quarter ended November 30, 1994 was an expense of $37,728 resulting from SJPC's
income of $75,471. In the nine months ended November 30, 1995 the expense was
$13,104 as a result of SJPC's income of $26,182 compared to expense of $72,132
in the quarter ended November 30, 1994 resulting from SJPC income for the period
of $144,292.
Income Taxes
Income taxes of $200 for the three months ended November 30, 1995 and
34
<PAGE>
$5,600 for the nine months ended November 30, 1994 were for taxes payable to the
state of California on income earned by San Jacinto Power Company on its
California operations. There were no Federal income taxes payable for the three
months and nine ending November 30, 1995 or 1994 as there was no Federal taxable
income for these periods. As of November 30, 1995, unused net operating losses
available to offset future taxable income was $4,263,385. The Company's
investment and energy tax credit carryforwards of $25,000 had expired on
November 30, 1995.
Net Loss
In the three months ending November 30, 1995, there was a total net loss of
$218,893, or $0.02 per share on 8,808,485 average shares outstanding. For the
three months ending November 30, 1994, there was a loss of $329,302 or $0.05 per
share on 6,473,471 average shares outstanding. In the nine months ending
November 30, 1995 there was a loss of $257,826 or $0.03 per share on 8,771,448
average shares outstanding and for the comparable nine months ending November
30, 1994 there was a loss of $913,063 or $0.15 per share on 5,964,613 average
shares outstanding.
PART II--OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
On October 5, 1992, the Company, as Plaintiff, initiated litigation in the
Chancery Court of Newcastle County, Delaware, (the "Munson Lawsuit"), against
former officers and directors of the Company. The Defendants are Stephen Munson,
Leland Mink, Walter Mackenzie, Frank Carigula and Donald Selfridge, (the
"Defendants").
Allegations against the Defendants include numerous breaches of fiduciary
loyalty to the Company, which include invalid issuance of Company shares,
breaches of fiduciary duty arising out of improper issuance of Company stock,
and breaches of fiduciary duty arising out of failure to value the services for
which stock was issued.
On October 13, 1992, a sequestrator was appointed and certain shares issued
by the Company standing in the names of Leland Mink, Walter Mackenzie, Donald
Selfridge and Frank Carigula were seized to hold the shares until further order
of the Court.
On June 18, 1993 a default judgement against defendant Carigula was
obtained by the Company in the amount of $57,834. Subsequently, the Company sold
the shares sequestered from defendant Carigula at a Sheriff's sale to partially
satisfy the judgement against defendant Carigula. The Company has since
retained the law firm of Merrill, O'Sullivan, MacRitchie, Peterson and Dixon
which are located in Bend, Oregon, to pursue collection of the judgement
attained against Frank Carigula.
On November 27, 1995, a foreign judgement was entered in Deschutes
35
<PAGE>
County, Oregon. On December 11, 1995, Vulcan Power Company, which is the
employer of Frank Carigula, was served with a Writ of Garnishment. Vulcan failed
to answer the Writ by completing and returning a certificate of garnishee as
required by Oregon law and the required time to do so has now expired. The
Company is continuing to investigate any assets which may be attributable to
Frank Carigula for purposes of satisfying the remaining balance of the
judgement. To date, $4,863 has been obtained from the sale of securities then
owned by Carigula, leaving a judgement balance of $52,971 outstanding. However,
there can be no assurance that the collection efforts will be successful.
The deposition for defendant Munson was scheduled by the Company's attorney
for April 8, 1994. Defendant Munson's failure to appear at the scheduled
deposition resulted in the Court assessing defendant Munson with $3,500 as
reimbursement for cost incurred by the Company. This amount was paid by Munson
on July 1, 1994.
The Company is in the process of seeking a trial date against all remaining
defendants in this matter and have been advised by Delaware legal counsel that
this matter should come to trial during 1996.
On November 30, 1995, a request was submitted to the Second Judicial
District Court for the State of Nevada to join the Company as a defendant to
litigation known as Nevada Energy Partners I, Limited Partnership vs. Hot
Springs Power Company, et. al., Case No. CV92-04609. Nevada Energy Partners I,
Limited Partnership is a Nevada limited partnership in which the Company is the
sole limited partner. Allegations against the Company in the counterclaim state
that the Company misrepresented that $2 million dollars were necessary to
satisfy creditor claims during the Company's prior bankruptcy proceedings and
that the Company breached a fiduciary duty to counterclaimants by disclosing
unspecified confidential information. The Company was by legal counsel that
subject claims were vague and proceedurally deficient.
The Company responded to attorney representing the counterclaimants that
there was no misrepresentation of $2 million dollars which was required to
successfully reorganize the Company. This was evidenced both by a review
payments made in accordance with the Company's Amended Disclosure Statement, in
summaries of payment made to creditors, in six month reports filed with the
Federal Bankruptcy Court for the District of Nevada, and by review of quarterly
and annual filings made by the Company in Forms 10-Q, 10-Q SB, 10-K, and 10 K
SB, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission available in the public
domain. The Company also responded to the attorneys representing the claimants
that there could be no alleged breach of fiduciary duty to the claimants, as the
Company is a limited partner of Nevada Energy Partners I, Limited Partnership,
and has no direct contract with the counterclaimants. The Company maintained
the contention that the counterclaim was vexatious in nature, without merit, and
intended to damage the Company.
The claim has since been dismissed without prejudice.

With respect to subscription agreements previously reported to be held by
the Company for an aggregate sale of $1,000,000 in Class A common shares, the
subscribers failed to perform in accordance with the terms of the agreement and
within the time of subsequent extensions mutually agreed. The Company is
considering its options with respect to enforcement of the terms of the
agreement which contains provisions for arbitration. There is currently no
litigation relating to this matter.
There are no outstanding litigation claims filed against the Company.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.
On July 11, 1995, the Annual Meeting of Stockholders for the Company was
held and the matters were voted upon by a majority of vote of the stockholders
were as follows:

Stock are subject to the options under the Plan. The terms and conditions of
each option will specify the number of shares optioned, the period during which
each option is exercisable and the exercise price per share. The Plan has been
terminated.
STOCK DIVIDENDS
During the quarter ending November 30, 1995, the Board of Directors had not
approved the payment a stock dividend. Stock dividends are approved and issued
solely at the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors.
PLAN OF OPERATIONS - SAN JACINTO POWER COMPANY
On June 24, 1994, the Company, through its majority owned subsidiary, San
Jacinto Power Company ("SJPC") completed financial closing of the acquisition of
the assets of Smith Wind Energy Corporation and six affiliated limited
partnerships known as the Triad American Energy Partnerships, (Series A, B, C,
D, E and F). As a result of this financial closing, the Company is
consolidating the financial results of SJPC in its financial statements. Fully
audited financial statements of Smith Wind Energy Corporation and the Triad
American Energy Partnerships have since been submitted and filed with on
Form 8-K in compliance with Securities and Exchange Commission requirements.
Presently, the Company is engaged in selling non-productive and/or
maintenance intensive assets of SJPC. SJPC is presently exploring the option of
selling all presently operating wind turbines on site and thereafter seeking to
replace and "build-out" SJPC's power generating facilities located near Palm
Springs, California to a rated capacity level of 18.955 MW utilizing
non-recourse, project financing or other similar financing techniques.
Representatives of a Danish wind turbine manufacturer are currently engaged
in due diligence associated with a proposed expansion of its power production
facilities up to a rated capacity level of 18.955 MW.
Due diligence information has also been circulated to a second development
group also expressing interest in preparing and delivering an expansion
proposal. There can be no assurance that the proposed expansion will be
completed.
PLAN OF OPERATIONS - DEPLOYMENT OF (6) ORMAT POWER PLANTS
38
<PAGE>
The Company discussed the possible deployment of six (6) Ormat power plants
with the owner/operators of an existing geothermal power facility which is
currently operating below its contracted amount of electrical power. Technical
requirements, principally relating to the availability of adequate cooling water
resources, prevented further pursuit of this opportunity.
39
<PAGE>
PLAN OF OPERATIONS - POWER PLANT AND ETHANOL PLANT ACQUISITION
The Company previously executed certain closing documentation related to
the acquisition of a geothermal power generating facility, power purchase
agreements, related geothermal energy reserves an ethanol facility and other
fixtures and equipment. The Company has delayed final closure pending
completion of remaining due diligence requisite to achieving debt financing for
the retrofit of the facilities. There can be no assurance that final closure
will be achieved.
PLAN OF OPERATIONS - REVERSE TAKEOVER DISCUSSIONS
The Company has been engaged in on-going discussions regarding two proposed
transactions that, if consummated, would have the Company issue additional
common stock to acquire a significant ownership interest in an unrelated
business enterprise. Based upon financial information supplied to the Company
by the Targets, each candidate has demonstrated operating profitability. The
transactions contemplated would involve the Company issuing additional shares of
common stock that would result in owners of the acquired business controlling
the Company and owning substantially more than a majority of outstanding common
stock of the Company. If consummated, the transaction may result in substantial
dilution to the Company's shareholders. The Company's Board of Directors are
seeking advice concerning the potential effect upon, or value to the Company's
common stockholders. It is not known at this time whether the Company will find
either proposal advisable and there can be no assurance that such a transaction
will be completed.
ITEM 6. EXHIBITS AND REPORTS ON FORM 8-K.
