                        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS


Board of Directors
Ward Lake Drilling, Inc.


We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Ward Lake Drilling, Inc. as
of December 31, 1994, and the related statements of revenues and expenses 
and retained earnings and cash flows for the year then ended.  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 audit provides 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 Ward Lake Drilling, Inc. at
December 31, 1994, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the
year then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                               December 31, 1994




1.  ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

Ward Lake Drilling, Inc. (the "Company"), a Michigan subchapter S Corporation,
is a domestic, independent oil and gas exploration and production company.


2.  ACCOUNTING POLICIES

CASH EQUIVALENTS AND MARKETABLE SECURITIES

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash equivalents are defined as
all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an initial maturity of three
months or less.

Marketable securities, principally U.S. Government securities, are treated as
available for sale securities and are stated at cost which approximates fair
value.

INVENTORIES

Inventories consist primarily of oil field casing and tubular goods utilized
in the Company's exploration activities and are valued at the lower of cost
(first-in, first-out method) or market.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

The Company follows the successful efforts method of accounting for its oil and
gas producing activities.  

Acquisition costs for proved and unproved properties are capitalized
when incurred.  Costs of unproved properties are transferred to proved
properties when proved reserves are discovered.  Exploration costs, including
geological and geophysical costs and costs of carrying and retaining unproved
properties, are charged against income as incurred.  Exploratory drilling costs
are capitalized initially; however, if it is determined that an exploratory
well does not contain sufficient proved reserves, such capitalized costs are 
charged to expense, as dry hole costs, at that time.  Development costs are 
capitalized. Costs incurred to operate and maintain wells and equipment and to
lift oil and gas to the surface are generally expensed.  

The net costs of proved oil and gas properties are annually subjected to a test
of recoverability on a property by property basis by comparison to their
estimated present value of future net cash flows from proved reserves. 
Unproved oil and gas properties are also subjected to an impairment test.  Any
capitalized costs in excess of future net cash flows are expensed in the year 
in which such an excess occurs.

                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)




2.  ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Depreciation, depletion and amortization of oil and gas properties are computed
on a units-of-production method based on proven reserves.  The provision for
depreciation, depletion and amortization is calculated by applying the ratio of
current production divided by beginning reserves to net capitalized property
costs.

Other property and equipment are recorded at cost, and depreciation is 
calculated using the straight-line and declining balance methods over the 
respective estimated useful lives of the assets.

INCOME TAXES

The Company has elected to be taxed as a subchapter S Corporation. As a result,
earnings are not subject to the federal or state corporation income taxes but
are S-Corp earnings allocated to the shareholders of the Company for 
inclusion on their personal income tax returns.

12.  CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

The Company operates exclusively in the oil and gas industry.  Sales of oil and
gas are ultimately made to refineries, gas utilities and industrial consumers
in Michigan.  Credit limits, ongoing credit evaluation and account monitoring
procedures are utilized to minimize the risk of loss.  Collateral is generally
not required.  Expected losses have been within management's expectations.

13.  SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION ON OIL AND GAS ACTIVITIES

The following disclosures are presented in accordance with the Financial
Accounting Standards Board's (FASB) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 69 (SFAS 69).  The following table sets forth costs incurred by the Company
during the year ended December 31, 1994:

PROVED OIL AND GAS RESERVES (UNAUDITED)

The Company's proved developed and undeveloped reserves are all located within
the United States.  The Company cautions that there are many uncertainties
inherent in estimating proved reserve quantities and in projecting future
production rates and the timing of development expenditures.  In addition,
estimates of new discoveries are more imprecise than those of properties with a
production history.  Accordingly, these estimates are expected to change as
future information becomes available.  Material revisions to reserve estimates
may occur in the future, development and production of the oil and gas reserves
may not occur in the periods assumed, and actual prices realized and actual
costs incurred many vary significantly from those used.  Proved reserves
represent estimated quantities of natural gas, crude oil and condensate that
geological and engineering data demonstrate, with reasonable certainty, to be
recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under economic and operating
conditions existing at the time the estimates were made.  Proved developed
reserves are proved reserves expected to be recovered through wells and
equipment in place and under operating methods being utilized at the time the
estimates were made.

STANDARDIZED MEASURE OF DISCOUNTED FUTURE NET CASH FLOWS RELATING TO PROVED 
RESERVES (UNAUDITED)

The following tables, which present a standardized measure of discounted future
net cash flows and changes therein relating to proved oil and gas reserves, are
presented pursuant to SFAS 69.  In computing this data, assumptions other than
those required by the FASB could produce different results.  Accordingly, the
data should not be construed as representative of the fair market value of the
Company's proved oil and gas reserves.  The following assumptions have been
made at December 31, 1994:

         -   Future revenues were based on year end oil and gas prices.  Future
             price changes were included only to the extent provided by
             existing contractual agreements.

         -   Production and development costs were computed using year end
             costs assuming no change in present economic conditions.

         -   Future net cash flows were discounted at an annual rate of 10%.

         -   Future income taxes were computed using the approximate statutory
             tax rate and giving effect to available net operating losses, tax
             credits and statutory depletion.

14.  SUBSEQUENT EVENT

Effective January 1995, the Company was purchased by Belden & Blake
Corporation, a publicly-held, vertically integrated exploration and production
company headquartered in North Canton, Ohio, for approximately $15.1 million.

During the settlement of the purchase agreement, approximately $5.3 million of
outstanding notes payable and long-term debt was satisfied.  Additionally,
certain net related party receivables in the amount of $2,182,000 were
cancelled in connection with the purchase agreement.  The cancellation of these
amounts was treated as a capital transaction subsequent to December 31, 1994.

              Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Statements



1.  Basis of Presentation
    ---------------------

    The unaudited pro forma financial statements set forth unaudited pro forma
    financial information for the Company for the year ended December 31, 1994.
    The unaudited pro forma condensed balance sheet assumes that Ward Lake
    Drilling, Inc. ("Ward Lake") had been acquired as of December 31, 1994. The
    unaudited pro forma results of operations assume that the acquisition of
    Ward Lake had occurred on January 1, 1994. Unaudited pro forma results of
    operations cannot be considered indicative of future operations.

2.  Pro Forma Adjustments
    ---------------------

    (a)  Adjustment to reflect the fair market value of the oil and gas
         properties at the time of acquisition.

    (b)  Adjustment to reduce the historical cost of land, buildings, 
         machinery, and equipment acquired by the Company to reflect the fair
         market value at time of acquisition.

    (c)  Adjustment to eliminate Ward Lake's historical accumulated
         depreciation. 
        
    (d)  Adjustment to recognize the fair market value of other assets at the
         time of acquisition.

    (e)  Adjustment to recognize additional debt incurred by the Company in
         connection with the acquisition of Ward Lake.

    (f)  Adjustment to eliminate Ward Lake's historical common stock and
         retained earnings.

    (g)  Adjustment to present certain well operating revenues (pumper and
         administrative fees) as a reduction of production expenses, so as to
         conform with the Company's existing presentation policy.

    (h)  Adjustment to recognize additional production expense associated with
         pay increases granted at the time of acquisition.

    (i)  Adjustment to reflect reduced general and administrative expenses
         associated with the closing of one administrative office and the
         discontinuing of the employment of Ward Lake's executive group and
         support staff.

    (j)  Adjustment to reflect increased interest expense associated with
         additional debt incurred by the Company in connection with the
         acquisition of Ward Lake. See adjustment (e).

    (k)  Adjustment to recognize additional depreciation, depletion and
         amortization incurred due to recording the purchase price of the
         assets at fair market value rather than at historical cost. See
         adjustments (a), (b) and (d).

    (l)  Adjustment to the combined unaudited pro forma provision for income
         taxes. Prior to the acquisition Ward Lake was a subchapter S 
         Corporation and accordingly did not provide for income taxes.
