HONDO OIL & GAS COMPANY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 1994
(All Dollar Amounts in Thousands)
1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
------------------------------------------
(a) Basis of Consolidation and Presentation
---------------------------------------
The consolidated financial statements of Hondo Oil & Gas Company
(hereinafter referred to as "Hondo Oil" or "the Company") include the
accounts of all subsidiaries, all of which are wholly-owned. All
significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated. The Hondo
Company (hereinafter referred to as "Hondo") owns 78% of Hondo Oil's
common stock.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article
10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. There has not been any
change in the Company's significant accounting policies except for
implementation of Statement of Financial Account Standards ("SFAS") No.
109, "Accounting for Income Taxes", as further described in Note 5.
There have not been any significant developments or changes in
contingent liabilities and commitments except as described in Note 6.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. The results for these interim periods are not
necessarily indicative of results for the entire year. These statements
should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
September 30, 1993.
(b) Earnings Per Share
------------------
Net income (loss) per share amounts have been computed using the
weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common equivalent
shares outstanding. Fully diluted per share amounts are not presented
as the effect of the exercise of stock options is not significant.
(c) Inventory
---------
Inventory, which consists entirely of lease and well equipment in
Colombia, is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value.

2) Discontinued Operations
-----------------------
Effective March 31 and September 4, 1991, respectively, the Company
adopted plans of disposal for its refining and marketing and real estate
segments. In October 1992, the Fletcher refinery was placed in a cold
shut-down and subsequently the facility was used to terminal crude oil
and petroleum products for third parties. On September 15, 1993, the
Company executed an agreement for the sale of its Fletcher refinery and
its asphalt terminal in Hilo, Hawaii. These assets represent the
material portion of the Company's refining and marketing segment. The
transaction closed on October 1, 1993 at which time $992 of the net
accrued proceeds of $1,992 were received. Additional net proceeds of
$129 have been received subsequently and further proceeds will be
received when certain components of the refinery equipment are sold by
the buyer.
Operating income (losses) of discontinued operations for the quarters
ended June 30, 1994 and 1993 were ($155) and $105, respectively.
Corresponding amounts for the nine months ended June 30, 1994 and 1993
were ($401) and ($8,490), respectively, and were charged against loss
provisions established in earlier periods. The Company recorded loss
provisions for discontinued operations of $1,400 and $4,000 for the nine
months ended June 30, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The $1,400 charge
recorded in the current quarter pertains to the real estate assets and
arises as a result of local market conditions, current sale
negotiations, and the timing of possible sales.
Interest expense included in the losses from discontinued operations
pertains only to debt directly attributable to the discontinued
segments. The operating losses from discontinued operations for the
quarters ended June 30, 1994 and 1993 include interest expense of $71
and $701, respectively. Corresponding amounts for the nine months ended
June 30, 1994 and 1993 were $213 and $2,108, respectively. Total
interest expense allocated to discontinued operations, both expensed and
capitalized, includes $835 and $2,496 attributable to Lonrho Plc for the
quarter and nine months ended June 30, 1993, respectively.
A summary of the segments' net assets is as follows:

3) Other Liabilities
-----------------
In accordance with the terms of the Company's debts to Lonrho Plc,
accrued interest is either added to the outstanding principal or paid by
issuance of the Company's common stock on the interest due date, at the
option of Lonrho Plc. Accrued interest of $2,250 for the six-month
period ended March 31, 1994 was added to the outstanding principal
balances on April 1, 1994.
During the quarter ended March 31, 1994, the Company entered into an
agreement with the City of Long Beach which provides, among other
things, that payment of amounts due to the City of Long Beach arising
from the Company's interest in the Long Beach Unit, Wilmington Oil
Field, California (THUMS), including $542 classified as a current
liability at September 30, 1993, will be deferred. Accordingly, all
liabilities to the City of Long Beach are now classified as long-term.
Other liabilities consist of the following:

Interest payable to Lonrho Plc $1,174 $ --

4) Cash Flow Information
---------------------
Cash interest expense paid for the nine months ended June 30, 1994 and
1993 was $223 and $4,010, respectively.
5) Income Taxes
------------
As required by the provisions of SFAS No. 109, the Company changed its
method of accounting for income taxes from the provisions of SFAS No.
96, "Accounting For Income Taxes", to the provisions of SFAS No. 109,
"Accounting For Income Taxes", effective October 1, 1993. The change in
accounting method had no material effect on the Company's financial
position, results of operations, or components of income tax expense for
the current or previous fiscal years. Accordingly, no cumulative effect
of a change in accounting principle has been recognized and the footnote
disclosures required by SFAS No. 109 have been omitted.

HONDO OIL & GAS COMPANY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 1994
(All Dollar Amounts in Thousands)
5) Income Taxes (continued)
------------------------
Under Statement 109, the liability method is used in accounting for
income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are
determined based on reversals of differences between financial reporting
and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the
enacted effective tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the
differences are expected to reverse. Prior to the adoption of Statement
109, income tax expense was determined using the liability method
prescribed by Statement 96, which has been superseded by Statement 109.
Among other changes, Statement 109 changes the recognition and
measurement criteria for deferred tax assets included in Statement 96.
The Company provides for income taxes based on estimated annual
effective rates. The Company records current income tax expense to
the extent that federal, state or alternative minimum tax is projected
to be owed. Deferred income taxes are recorded to the extent that tax
net operating losses are not available to offset future reversals of
temporary differences.
6) Contingencies
-------------
In the agreement for the sale of the Fletcher refinery, the Company
indemnified the buyer for certain federal and state excise taxes arising
from periods prior to the sale. Fletcher Oil and Refining Company
("Fletcher") recently notified the Company that an audit for California
Motor Vehicle Fuels Tax is underway and a preliminary review by present
Fletcher employees indicates that a significant liability may exist. The
Company has retained a consultant to evaluate the possible contingent
liability. The consultant's initial review has indicated that a
liability may exist, but that the data is incomplete and an accurate
determination cannot presently be reached. Management believes that it
is reasonably possible a liability of up to $900 may exist. As of June
30, 1994, no amounts have been accrued for this contingency.
11
Item 2 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
GENERAL DISCUSSION
------------------
Continuing Operations
The Company's principal asset is its interest in the Opon
Association Contract (the "Opon Contract") in Colombia. Hondo
Magdalena Oil & Gas Limited ("Hondo Magdalena"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary, entered into a Farmout Agreement dated August 9, 1993
under which Amoco Colombia Petroleum Company ("Amoco Colombia") will
earn a participating interest in Hondo Magdalena's Opon Contract in
the Middle Magdalena Valley of Colombia. Under the terms of the
Farmout Agreement, Amoco Colombia was assigned a 50% interest in the
Opon Contract by Hondo Magdalena. Hondo Magdalena retained a 30%
interest. To earn the interest assigned, Amoco Colombia paid $3.0
million in cash and is paying Hondo Magdalena's costs related to the
fifth-year obligations under the Opon Contract, the Opon No. 3 well,
a well to the La Paz formation. Amoco Colombia also has an option
to conduct further seismic evaluation of the contract area at its
expense. After drilling of the Opon No. 3, Amoco Colombia may (i)
withdraw and relinquish all its interest to Hondo Magdalena or, (ii)
pay Hondo Magdalena an additional $5.0 million and all but $2.0
million of Hondo Magdalena's costs related to the sixth-year
obligations under the Opon Contract, another La Paz formation well,
or (iii) relinquish 5% of its interest to Hondo Magdalena and pay
all of Hondo Magdalena's costs related to the sixth-year obligations
under the Opon Contract. Amoco Colombia and Hondo Magdalena have
agreed that Amoco Colombia will make its election among the three
preceding options on or before by September 30, 1994. Amoco
Colombia will again have the option to withdraw and relinquish its
interests after the drilling of the sixth-year obligation well. As
previously reported, Amoco Colombia has recently obtained an
extension for commencement of the drilling of the sixth-year
obligation well under the Opon Contract from July 15, 1994 to July
13, 1995.
The Opon No. 3 well reached its total depth of 12,710 feet in June
1994. Procedures preparatory to testing of the well began on July
15, 1994. These activities were suspended shortly thereafter for
mechanical reasons. Amoco Colombia is awaiting delivery of
additional surface equipment necessary to flow test the well.
Testing is expected to take two to four weeks and is necessary to
determine if commercial quantities of hydrocarbons are present in
the well.
Because of losses in prior years and decreases in shareholders'
equity, the Company does not fully meet all of the guidelines of the
American Stock Exchange for continued listing of its shares.
Management is taking steps to improve the Company's ability to meet
the Exchange's guidelines and preserve the listing. Management
believes that the Exchange will defer any decision on the listing
until after results of the Opon No. 3 well are known. However, no
assurances can be given that the Company's shares will remain listed
on the Exchange in the future.
12
In 1965, the Company (then Pauley Petroleum Inc.) acquired a
nonoperating contractor's interest in the Long Beach Unit,
Wilmington Oil Field, California ("THUMS"). The principal economic
benefit of the interest was the right to receive approximately 4,000
barrels per day of THUMS crude oil that the Company used in
conjunction with the Fletcher refinery. Following the sale of the
refinery in October 1993, the Company's interest in the Unit, which
had been marginally profitable at best, became a potentially severe
cash drain due to a decline in crude oil prices.
On February 2, 1994 the Company entered into an agreement with the
City of Long Beach whereby the Company and the City of Long Beach
released each other from their respective rights and obligations
under the THUMS contracts, effective January 1, 1994. The agreement
also provides that amounts due the City of Long Beach of
approximately $1.6 million will be paid on or before January 1,
1997, or prior to that date, if the Company has free available cash
flow from the Opon No. 3 well or any other assets. The amount due
is not subject to interest charges.
Effective May 1, 1994, The Anderson Company, a wholly-owned
subsidiary, sold the Company's office building and certain furniture
and equipment in Roswell, New Mexico, for $0.7 million in cash and
deferred payments. A loss of $0.9 million resulted, largely due to
real estate market conditions in Roswell. The sale will further
reduce the Company's expenses. The Company will continue to occupy
a portion of the building under a lease with the buyer.
Discontinued Operations
The Company has listed its 11 acre Via Verde Bluffs property in the
City of San Dimas and its 105 acre Valley Gateway property in the
City of Santa Clarita with real estate brokers. The Company has
entered into preliminary discussions with potential buyers for both
properties and has recently executed a letter of intent pertaining
to the Via Verde Bluffs property. No agreements have been reached
on the sale of either property at this time and no assurances can be
given that these negotiations or the letter of intent will lead to a
contract for sale.
In the agreement for the sale of the Fletcher refinery, the Company
indemnified the buyer for certain federal and state excise taxes
arising from periods prior to the sale. As further described in
Note 6 to the financial statements, management believes it is
reasonably possible a liability for certain state taxes of up to
$0.9 million may exist. As of June 30, 1994, no amounts have been
accrued for this contingency.
13
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------
Due to the sale of substantially all of the Company's domestic oil
and gas properties in June 1992 and continuing reductions in the
Company's business activities, the results of continuing operations
are not comparable and may not be indicative of the Company's future
operating results. Operating revenues, gain (loss) on sale of
assets, overhead reimbursement and other income, operating costs,
and costs of exploration are primarily comprised of non-recurring
transactions in both periods.
Quarters Ended June 30, 1994 and 1993
Continuing operations reported losses of $1.8 million, or 14 cents
per share, for the quarter ended June 30, 1994 and $3.0 million, or
23 cents per share, for the comparable period last year.
The decrease in general and administrative expense of $0.6 million
between the quarters arises primarily from reductions in the number
of employees, offices, and aircraft. Costs of exploration and
exploratory dry holes includes a charge of $1.0 million for the
quarter ended June 30, 1993 arising from the write-off the Lilia No.
9, a shallow oil well in the Opon project. No comparable expenses
have been incurred in the current period.
Total interest expense in the current quarter of $1.2 million is
less than total interest expense of $1.7 million for the quarter
ended June 30, 1993. The net decrease of $0.5 million arises from
lower interest rates in the current quarter, offset by an increase
in outstanding debt of $11.7 million between the quarters. The
amounts reported in the consolidated statements of operations
increased by $0.3 million because $0.8 million of interest expense
for the quarter ended June 30, 1993 was allocated to discontinued
operations.
Operating income (losses) of discontinued operations, which are
charged against previously established loss provisions, amounted to
($0.2) million and $0.1 million for the quarters ended June 30, 1994
and 1993, respectively. The amounts are not comparable due to the
sale of substantially all of the Company's discontinued refining and
marketing segment in September 1993. The Company recorded
discontinued loss provisions of $1.4 million and $2.8 million for
the respective quarters. The current quarter's provision pertains
to the Company's real estate operations and arises as a result of
local market conditions, current sale negotiations, and the timing
of possible sales.
Nine Months Ended June 30, 1994 and 1993
Continuing operations reported losses of $6.4 million, or 49 cents
per share, for the nine months ended June 30, 1994 and $6.7 million,
or 52 cents per share, for the comparable period last year.
14
Loss on sale of assets includes a loss of $0.9 million recorded for
the period ended March 31, 1994, as described above. Operating
expenses for the nine months ended June 30, 1994 arise primarily
from provisions for obsolete pipe inventories in Colombia. The
decrease in general and administrative expense of $1.9 million
between the nine month periods arises primarily from reductions in
the number of employees, offices, and aircraft. Costs of
exploration and exploratory dry holes includes a charge of $1.0
million for the quarter ended June 30, 1993 arising from the write-
off the Lilia No. 9, a shallow oil well in the Opon project. No
comparable expenses have been incurred in the current period.
Total interest expense for the nine months ended June 30, 1994 of
$3.4 million is less than total interest expense for the year-
earlier period of $5.0 million. The net decrease of $1.6 million
between the periods arises from lower interest rates, offset by an
increase in outstanding debt of $11.7 million. The amounts reported
in the consolidated statements of operations increased by $0.9
million because $2.5 million of interest expense for the nine months
ended June 30, 1993 was allocated to discontinued operations.
Operating losses of discontinued operations, which are charged
against previously established loss provisions, amounted to $0.4
million and $8.5 million for the nine months ended June 30, 1994 and
1993, respectively. The amounts are not comparable due to the sale
of substantially all of the Company's discontinued refining and
marketing segment in September 1993. Discontinued loss provisions
of $1.4 million and $4.0 million were recorded for the respective
nine-month periods. The 1994 provision pertains to the Company's
real estate operations and arises as a result of local market
conditions, current sale negotiations, and the timing of possible
sales.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
-------------------------------
During the nine months ended June 30, 1994, cash inflows of $1.5
million and $1.0 million arose from the sale of assets and
borrowings from Lonrho Plc under existing loan agreements,
respectively. The Company utilized cash of $0.8 million and $0.4
million to finance continuing and discontinued operations,
respectively, and made scheduled debt repayments of $0.2 million.
In addition, the Company expended $0.7 million and $0.2 million on
capital projects for continuing operations and discontinued real
estate operations, respectively. Overall, cash balances for the
nine-month period increased by $0.2 million to $0.8 million.
In December 1993, the Company reached an agreement with Lonrho Plc
for the restructuring of the terms of all of the Company's debt to
Lonrho Plc. The agreement was effective as of September 30, 1993,
and provided for all accrued interest on the respective loans at
that date to be added to principal. The interest rate for each loan
was reduced to 6%, and interest is now payable semi-annually. The
Company may offer payment of future interest in shares of its common
stock, and Lonrho may either accept such payment in kind or add the
amount of the interest then payable to principal. Lonrho Plc
selected the latter option for interest due April 1, 1994. This
restructuring substantially decreases the Company's debt service.
The ability to pay interest in kind or capitalize interest will
allow the Company to service its debt while cash resources are
scarce.
15
The Farmout Agreement with Amoco Colombia is expected to provide
funds for the Company's capital expenditure obligations under the
Opon Contract in the near term. While Amoco Colombia is committed
to drilling the fifth-year obligation well, it has the option to
withdraw from the Opon Contract on or before September 30, 1994. If
Amoco Colombia elects to withdraw, the Company does not presently
have sufficient funds available to meet the sixth-year obligation, a
well which must be commenced prior to July 13, 1995.
The Company's existing cash balances are projected to be sufficient
to finance the Company's business activities during fiscal 1994.
Cash flow projections for fiscal 1995 assume receipt of $5.0 million
from Amoco Colombia under the Farmout Agreement. Failure to receive
this payment would materially and adversely affect the Company's
liquidity in fiscal 1995. The Company has curtailed all non-
essential capital and other expenditures in order to conserve cash.
The Company's management believes that the Opon project has
significant potential to be developed in conjunction with Colombia's
planned natural gas transmission network and that the Company's
future revenues will be derived from this source. Successful
results from the Opon No. 3 well and, possibly, the sixth-year
obligation well, are essential to the Company's ability to obtain
additional financing for the development of the Opon project.
Obtaining additional sources of funds is vital to the Company's
long-term ability to successfully develop the Opon project. The
Company's cash resources in the near future may be limited to cash
on hand and the net proceeds of sales of certain assets. Cash from
operations are not expected to be a source of funds until the Opon
project begins commercial production. Unless and until success is
achieved at Opon, substantial doubt will exist as to the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern. There can be no assurance
that the Opon project will be successfully developed or that
alternative sources of funds will become available in the future.

VII.
RAILROAD LEASE, LIENS, ENCUMBRANCES AND TAXES
A. The PARTIES acknowledge and agree that a portion of one of the
buildings located on the west side of the REAL PROPERTY is located on land
owned by SANTA FE and is subject to and governed by an unrecorded lease
agreement between SANTA FE, as Lessor, and ANDERSON, as Lessee and successor in
interest to the original Lessee. The terms of said Lease are contained in that
certain Lease of Land Contract No. 86761 dated August 9, 1943 between SANTA FE,
Lessor, and Valley Refining Company, a New Mexico Corporation, the original
Lessee and predecessor in interest to ANDERSON, covering land more particularly
described in Exhibit "A" thereto. ANDERSON agrees to and shall execute an
assignment and transfer of said original Lease Agreement to and in favor of
WBJ, and any and all other instruments, documents or agreements required by
SANTA FE in order to give effect to said Assignment and otherwise reflect that
WBJ is the successor in interest to and the Assignee of ANDERSON. The SELLER
agrees to and shall transfer and assign all of its right, title and interest in
and to such Lease Agreement to the BUYER at the CLOSING pursuant to an
Assignment of Lease Agreement in a form substantially similar to EXHIBIT "E"
8
attached hereto. To the best of their knowledge and belief, the SELLER and
HONDO represent that the original Lease Agreement and all subsequent
assignments and transfers of the same have not been recorded in Chaves County,
New Mexico. The PARTIES specifically acknowledge and agree that the unrecorded
lease shall not constitute an encumbrance, encroachment or title defect with
respect to ownership by the SELLER of the REAL PROPERTY and does not impair the
value thereof, nor the SELLER'S ability to close all transactions contemplated
by this AGREEMENT. In addition, the PARTIES specifically acknowledge and agree
that the lease from SANTA FE shall constitute a "Permissible Encumbrance" under
the terms of this AGREEMENT, and is specifically authorized and permitted
pursuant to the terms hereof. In that regard, all representations, warranties
and covenants contained herein that are made by the SELLER or ANDERSON to and
in favor of the BUYER with respect to liens and encumbrances that may burden
the REAL PROPERTY shall be read, construed and interpreted to mean that the
Lease Agreement with SANTA FE is not a lien or encumbrance on the REAL
PROPERTY, or in the alternative is specifically authorized hereby. If SANTA FE
terminates the Lease and requires the demolition of the Tinnie Building on or
before seven (7) years from the EFFECTIVE DATE of this AGREEMENT, SELLER agrees
to pay WBJ the amount of the demolition costs, not to exceed the sum of
$35,000.00. HONDO agrees to and hereby does guarantee the obligation of SELLER
under the preceding sentence.
B. The SELLER represents and warrants to the BUYER that, unless
otherwise authorized hereby, there are no liens, encumbrances, debts,
liabilities or obligations covering, burdening or encumbering the REAL PROPERTY
of the SELLER to be transferred to the BUYER pursuant to this AGREEMENT.
SELLER represents and warrants to the BUYER that there are no liens,
encumbrances, debts, liabilities or obligations covering, burdening or
encumbering the PERSONAL PROPERTY owned by SELLER that is to be transferred to
the BUYER pursuant to the terms hereof. In addition, the SELLER represents and
warrants to the BUYER that the SELLER has not performed, caused to be performed
or hired any third party to perform any labor or work upon the REAL PROPERTY,
including all improvements, buildings and structures situated thereon or
attached thereto, within the past 180 days; or if the same has been performed,
then all charges and amounts incurred in connection therewith will be paid in
full and discharged on and as of the CLOSING DATE. Lastly, the SELLER
represents and warrants that on and as of the CLOSING DATE, no person or entity
who may have performed labor, supplied materials or rendered services in
connection with improving or maintaining the REAL PROPERTY, including all
buildings, improvements and structures situated thereon, has the right to claim
a lien on the REAL PROPERTY pursuant to the New Mexico Mechanics and
Materialmen's Lien Act or any other provisions or laws of the State of New
Mexico.
C. The SELLER represents and warrants to the BUYER that, on and as of
the CLOSING DATE, all real property taxes assessed by the Chaves County
Treasurer against the REAL PROPERTY and all ad-valorem taxes assessed against
the PERSONAL PROPERTY have been paid in full for 1993 and all prior years, and
do not constitute a lien against the same. Subject to the proration of
property and ad-valorem taxes provided for elsewhere herein, the SELLER agrees
to and shall assume complete responsibility for, pay and discharge any and all
of said taxes of any kind or type described above that are or may in the future
be assessed against or on or with respect to any of the same.

VIII.
TITLE AND TITLE DEFECTS
A. Within five (5) business days after the execution of this AGREEMENT
by the PARTIES, the SELLER agrees to and shall deliver or cause to be delivered
to the BUYER a commitment for title insurance issued by a reputable title
insurer showing marketable and merchantable title in fee simple to the REAL
PROPERTY to be held and owned by the SELLER. Such commitment for title
insurance shall reflect that there are no liens or encumbrances burdening the
REAL PROPERTY, or any improvements, buildings or appurtenances located thereon
or attached thereto, except for any easements, rights-of-way or other matters
previously existing of record in Chaves County, New Mexico and that do not
materially impair the value of the REAL PROPERTY or its current and intended
use.
B. The BUYER shall have five (5) days after receipt of the commitment
for title insurance within which to examine title to the REAL PROPERTY,
including all improvements, buildings and fixtures attached thereto and located
thereon. In the event the BUYER'S title examination reveals any bona fide
defects in the title which render the same not fully merchantable or
marketable, other than the Lease Agreement with SANTA FE, easements, rights-of-
way or other matters that do not materially impair the value of the same
(including prior conveyances or reservations of minerals), then any bona fide
exceptions or objections to the SELLER'S title appearing in such commitment or
examination shall be delivered to the SELLER by the BUYER within seven (7) days
after BUYER'S receipt of the title commitment. After the date of delivery of
such objections or exceptions, the SELLER shall have a reasonable length of
time, not to exceed seven (7) days, within which to cure such title defects or
exceptions and furnish evidence of the same to the title insurer in order to
permit the title insurer to issue an amended commitment deleting such
exceptions or objections, all at SELLER'S sole cost and expense. Such title
policy shall be in an amount of not less than $658,000.00 and shall cover the
REAL PROPERTY and all improvements, buildings and structures located thereon,
attached thereto or associated therewith.

RESTRICTIONS ON SALE OF REAL PROPERTY
After the CLOSING of all transactions contemplated by this AGREEMENT, WBJ
agrees that it will not sell any portion of the REAL PROPERTY acquired pursuant
to the terms hereof without first securing the express written consent of
ANDERSON; which written consent shall not be unreasonably withheld by ANDERSON.
At the time WBJ requests ANDERSON'S written consent, it will furnish ANDERSON
with full information concerning the proposed sale which shall include the name
and address of the prospective purchaser (who must be willing, ready and able
to purchase), the Purchase Price, and all of the other terms of the proposed
sale. ANDERSON agrees to review such information and furnish its written
consent or denial thereof to WBJ within ten (10) days after its receipt of all
such information. The PARTIES specifically agree that if WBJ intends to sell
all of the REAL PROPERTY in any such sale, then WBJ shall not be required to
secure ANDERSON'S written consent to such sale so long as the net proceeds
derived from such sale are sufficient to pay in full the balance of the Secured
Promissory Note payable by WBJ pursuant to the terms hereof. In the event of
any partial sale or transfer of a portion of the REAL PROPERTY by WBJ, all
proceeds of such sale, less the closing costs and expenses, shall be paid to
ANDERSON and shall be applied first to the balloon payment due under the terms
15
of the Secured Promissory Note and then to the last maturing installments of
the same in reverse order. After the application of such proceeds as set forth
above, the monthly payment shall remain unchanged and the PARTIES agree to and
shall prepare a new amortization schedule to reflect the revised amounts of
principal and interest comprising the monthly payment based on the then
existing principal balance of the same. The PARTIES specifically acknowledge
and agree that at such time as the total amount due under the Secured
Promissory Note is or has been paid in full, then the specific written consent
requirements with respect to partial sales set forth herein shall terminate and
be of no further force and effect, and any subsequent sales of all of any
portion of the REAL PROPERTY may be accomplished by WBJ without the necessity
of securing the prior written consent of ANDERSON.
