   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:

                                                  June 30,      September 30,

   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:

                                                  June 30,      September 30,

   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.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                       (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.

     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.

                              TERMS OF TRANSACTION

          right, title and interest in and to the REAL PROPERTY, free and clear

          their  physical, business and mailing  address; (2) WBJ  will not use
          said address for business, legal or mailing purposes; and (3) at such
          time as WBJ occupies the  REAL PROPERTY it will secure  all requisite
          local,  municipal or  city  approvals in  order  to use  a  different
          physical address for the REAL PROPERTY, including but not limited to:
          400  East College Boulevard, 402  East College Boulevard  or 412 East
          College Boulevard.

     G.   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 the  Atchison, Topeka  and  Santa Fe  Railway Company
          ("SANTA  FE").  In addition,  the PARTIES acknowledge  and agree that

                                       3






          said  building  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" attached  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 PARTIES also  agree
          that  the unrecorded lease for the  building located on the west side
          of the REAL PROPERTY  on land owned by the SANTA FE is and shall be a
          permissible   encumbrance  on   the  REAL   PROPERTY,  all   as  more
          particularly described herein.

     H.   The  PARTIES agree that  WBJ shall not sell  or transfer ownership of
          any portion of  the REAL PROPERTY  or buildings located thereon  to a
          third party  without  first obtaining  the prior  written consent  of
          ANDERSON until such time as ANDERSON is paid in full; which shall not
          unreasonably  be withheld  and which  is more  particularly described
          herein.

     I.   At the  closing, as more  particularly described herein,  the PARTIES
          agree to  execute any  and all documents,  instruments or  agreements
          required  by this  AGREEMENT, including  but not  limited  to, deeds,
          bills  of sale,  promissory notes,  mortgages, leases  and any  other
          instruments   specifically  described  herein,   required  hereby  or
          referred to herein.

     J.   Until  the CLOSING,  the  SELLER agrees  to  and shall  maintain  its
          existing fire and extended  coverage insurance at the  present levels
          on  all buildings,  fixtures  and improvements  located  on the  REAL
          PROPERTY, at  its sole cost and  expense, and for the  benefit of the
          PARTIES as their interest  may appear pursuant  to the terms of  this
          AGREEMENT.

     K.   The PARTIES agree that their rights and obligations in and under this
          AGREEMENT and all transactions contemplated hereby may be transferred
          and  assigned  as specifically  provided  for  herein only,  but  not
          otherwise.


                                      III.

                CONDITION OF REAL PROPERTY AND PERSONAL PROPERTY

     By  accepting  the  REAL   PROPERTY  and  PERSONAL  PROPERTY,  the   BUYER

                TRANSFER OF REAL PROPERTY AND PERSONAL PROPERTY

     The PARTIES acknowledge and agree that as of the date of execution of this
AGREEMENT,  ANDERSON is the true and lawful owner of the REAL PROPERTY free and
clear of all liens and encumbrances,  unless otherwise provided for herein; and
as  of CLOSING,  ANDERSON will be  the true  and lawful  owner of  the PERSONAL
PROPERTY which  is the subject  of this  Agreement.  ANDERSON  (as the  SELLER)

General Warranty Deed conveying all of  the SELLER'S right, title and  interest
in and to the  PERSONAL PROPERTY and REAL PROPERTY to and in favor of the BUYER

authorized  hereby; which  Bill of  Sale, Transfer  and Assignment  and General
Warranty Deed shall be in  forms substantially similar to EXHIBITS "C"  and "D"
attached  hereto  and incorporated  herein for  all  purposes by  this specific
reference.  In addition, ANDERSON agrees  to and shall execute an assignment of
that certain Lease of Land  Contract No. 86761 originally dated August  9, 1943
between the  Atchison,  Topeka and  Santa Fe  Railway Company,  as Lessor,  and
ANDERSON, as Lessee, to and in favor of the BUYER which Lease Agreement is more
particularly  described and discussed in Paragraph G. of Section II and Section
VII hereof.  Said Assignment, together  with a description or plat of the  land
covered by said Lease, shall be in a  form substantially similar to EXHIBIT "E"
attached  hereto  and incorporated  herein for  all  purposes by  this specific
reference.  In  return for the transfer by the SELLER  of the REAL PROPERTY and

          existing $648,000.00 Purchase Price to $598,000.00.

     C.   $490,000.00  of the Purchase Price shall be  paid by the BUYER to the
          SELLER  over a period  of seven (7) years  in monthly installments of
          $4,098.56 each  on the first day  of each month beginning  on June 1,

          2001.     The  deferred  portion  of  the  Purchase  Price  shall  be
          represented  by   a  Secured   Promissory  Note,  together   with  an
          Amortization  Schedule attached  thereto, in  the  form substantially
          similar to  EXHIBIT "F" attached  hereto and incorporated  herein for
          all purposes by  this specific reference.  There shall  be no penalty
          for prepayment of the Promissory Note in full or in part.  

     D.   The  Promissory Note referred to above shall be secured by a Mortgage
          upon the REAL PROPERTY  in the form substantially similar  to EXHIBIT
          "G"  attached hereto and incorporated herein for all purposes by this
          specific reference.

     E.   The balance or remainder  of the Purchase Price of  $108,000.00 shall
          be  considered paid by BUYER'S granting certain Lease renewal options
          to  SELLER in  the Lease  more particularly  described herein.   Said
          Lease shall be evidenced by a  Lease Agreement executed by the SELLER
          and the BUYER which provides that ANDERSON, as  Lessee, agrees to and
          shall  lease from  WBJ, the  Lessor, approximately  30% of  the "Main
          Building" and the "Lab  Building" located on the southeast  corner of
          the REAL PROPERTY as shown  on the attached EXHIBIT "A" for  a period
          of one year,  at an aggregate monthly rental rate  of $2,175.00, plus
          applicable gross receipts taxes; together with renewal options valued
          at  the additional sum of  $108,000.00 that will  be credited against
          the Purchase Price.  In addition, the Lease Agreement shall cover  up
          to eight (8) out of ten (10) separate compartments (or 80%) contained
          in two (2) certain  metal storage buildings located on  the southeast
          side of  the REAL PROPERTY at no additional rent for a period of time
          not to exceed two (2) years after the initial date of said Lease.  At
          the end  of said two  (2) year  time period, ANDERSON  agrees to  and
          shall reduce the total amount of storage space occupied by  it from 8
          out of the 10 compartments down  to 4 out of the 10  compartments (or
          40%) of  the area contained  in the  two (2) metal  storage buildings
          referred to above.  In the event WBJ pays the PROMISSORY NOTE in full
          within  said two (2) year period,  ANDERSON shall have the option to:
          (1) relinquish all 4 of said storage compartments, or (2) continue to
          occupy said 4 storage compartments  by paying to WBJ the  fair market
          value rental thereof.   The PARTIES agree that the  terms, conditions
          and   provisions  of  the  Lease   Agreement  shall  be   in  a  form
          substantially similar to EXHIBIT "H" attached hereto and incorporated
          herein  for all  purposes  by this  specific  reference.   The  Lease
          Agreement  shall  generally provide  that:  (1)  the initial  monthly
          rental rate to be paid by SELLER to WBJ pursuant to the terms thereof
          will be  $2,175.00 per month,  plus applicable gross  receipts taxes;
          (2) SELLER shall have a renewal option valued at $108,000.00 which it
          shall pay to BUYER  in the form of a credit against  and reduction in

                                       6






          the Purchase  Price payable by the  BUYER for the REAL  PROPERTY, and
          which  renewal option shall authorize  the SELLER to  renew the Lease
          Agreement from year to year for a period of nine (9) additional years
          after the expiration of the first one (1) year term  thereof; (3) the
          renewal  option shall be  paid for  by the  SELLER in  the form  of a
          credit against the Purchase  Price in addition to the  monthly rental
          rate to be  paid by the  SELLER to WBJ pursuant  to the terms  of the
          Lease Agreement; (4) if said Lease is terminated or cancelled for any
          reason  prior to  full and  complete exercise  of the  renewal option
          described  above, WBJ shall not be obligated to refund any portion of
          the renewal  option price  of $108,000.00; and  (5) the value  of the
          unused  renewal option  shall  constitute an  agreed upon  liquidated
          damages amount for the premature breach or termination of said Lease.
          In addition,  the Lease  Agreement shall  contain  such other  terms,
          conditions  and  provisions as  may be  mutually  agreed upon  by the
          PARTIES, including: options to purchase personal property, furniture,
          fixtures and contents and the removal of the same, or any other terms
          the  PARTIES deem necessary, required or advisable to comply with the
          terms of this AGREEMENT and fully effectuate the intent hereof.

          of  the  $658,000.00 Purchase  Price  shall be  allocated  to certain
          portions  of  the  REAL  PROPERTY and  PERSONAL  PROPERTY,  including
          various improvements located thereon.  The PARTIES specifically agree
          that  a separate schedule or exhibit  shall not be necessary in order
          to  effectuate such allocation; and  that by their  execution of this
          AGREEMENT   they  specifically   acknowledge  and   agree  that   the

     The  BUYER  and  SELLER acknowledge  that  the  BUYER is  buying  the REAL
PROPERTY and PERSONAL PROPERTY of the SELLER on a long term basis  as evidenced
by the  Promissory Note attached hereto  as EXHIBIT "F".   Therefore, the BUYER
agrees to execute a Mortgage covering the REAL PROPERTY in a form substantially
similar to  EXHIBIT "G"  attached hereto;  which shall be  effective as  of the
EFFECTIVE DATE, as more particularly described hereafter.  The BUYER and SELLER
acknowledge  that  the  Mortgage  shall  serve  as  security  for  the  payment

                                      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.  






                                       9







                                     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.

     C.   In  the event  SELLER  fails  to  cure  any  such  title  defects  or
objections  on  or  before the  CLOSING,  the  BUYER shall  have  the following
options, rights and remedies, which shall be exclusive:

          1.   The  BUYER  may declare  this  AGREEMENT  terminated and  of  no
               further  force and effect and shall not be obligated to purchase
               the REAL PROPERTY or PERSONAL PROPERTY or pay any portion of the
               Purchase Price  for the same; at  which time the BUYER  shall be
               entitled to receive  and the SELLER shall  pay or return to  the
               BUYER the Earnest Money without interest; or

          2.   BUYER may close the  transactions contemplated by this AGREEMENT
               subject to such title defects and accept the same as permissible
               encumbrances.








                                       10







                                      IX.

or changed by mutual written agreement of the PARTIES.

     B.   The EFFECTIVE DATE of all transactions contemplated by this AGREEMENT
and  all  exhibits, documents,  agreements,  contracts,  assignments and  other
instruments  that  shall be  executed  by the  PARTIES in  connection  with the

and  agree  that  those  specific  items  of  furniture,  equipment  (including
telephone equipment), and furnishings that are comprised  within the definition
of PERSONAL PROPERTY more particularly set forth herein are specifically marked
in EXHIBIT "B"  and are  being purchased  by the  BUYER pursuant  to the  terms
hereof.  However,  other items of PERSONAL PROPERTY that are  not being sold or
purchased pursuant hereto  are the subject  of a purchase  option that will  be
contained in  the Lease Agreement  to be executed  by the PARTIES that  is more
particularly referred to and described herein.

     D.   At  the CLOSING, SELLER shall convey the REAL PROPERTY, including all
fixtures,  improvements and buildings  located thereon or  attached thereto, to
BUYER by a General Warranty Deed in a form substantially similar to EXHIBIT "D"
attached  hereto,  free and  clear of  all  liens and  encumbrances whatsoever,
unless otherwise authorized  hereby; however, said Deed shall be subject to the
terms, conditions  and provisions of  this AGREEMENT.   In addition,  said Deed
shall  be specifically  subject  to and  incorporate  by reference  the  terms,
conditions and provisions of the Mortgage to be executed by the BUYER to and in

               Form  or its equivalent) in a form acceptable to BUYER'S counsel
               issued by a title insurer acceptable to BUYER, and showing title
               vested in the name of BUYER subject only to the title exceptions
               described in  said title  insurance policy that  have previously
               been agreed upon by the PARTIES; and 

          2.   A certificate in a  form acceptable to counsel for  BUYER issued
               by the  title insurer to the  effect that, based on  a search of
               the records  of Chaves County and  of the Secretary  of State of
               New Mexico, there are no liens or other encumbrances on the REAL
               PROPERTY  and PERSONAL  PROPERTY,  other than  the Mortgage  and
               Security  Agreement authorized  hereby, both  of which  shall be

                     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.
