                    NEROX ENERGY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY
                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                                  (Unaudited)


1. Summary of certain accounting policies
- -----------------------------------------

   The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Nerox Energy
   Corporation and Subsidiary (the "Company") have been prepared in accordance
   with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information
   required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
   statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of
   normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation
   have been included. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 1996
   are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year ending December
   31, 1996.  These statements should be read in conjunction with the
   consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's
   Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995.

2. Going concern
- ----------------

   The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
   conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate
   continuation of the Company as a going concern.  However, the Company has
   experienced significant losses; and its oil and gas production revenues
   declined significantly in 1994 due to declining oil and gas prices.  In 1995,
   the Company purchased a coal mine, and while it has a contract to sell all
   the coal it can produce in the near future, additional capital infusion is
   necessary to actually begin mining operations.  These factors raise
   substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

   Management is currently seeking additional financing and the Company's
   majority stockholder has agreed to accept equity in settlement of demand
   notes with a balance of $826,390 at December 31, 1995.  In addition,
   management believes that oil and gas production will increase due to
   increases in prices, while production expenses will decline, thus generating
   positive cash flow from that segment of operations.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS

   RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.  Total revenues from oil and gas sales for the first
   ---------------------                                                      
   six months of 1996 were $77,556, a decrease of 7% from $83,357 for the first
   six months of 1995.

     Oil and gas production costs have decreased when compared to revenues
   produced due to significant well re-work, repairs and re-drilling in progress
   in 1995, but completed by the first quarter of 1996.  General and
   administrative expenses increased mostly due to additional fees associated
   with investor relations, promotional efforts and expenses for its subsidiary
   ("NPSI") which was reactivated in the third quarter of 1995.  Interest costs
   increased from $3,641 to $111,776 as the Company has increasingly had to rely
   on borrowings to finance its operations.  The minority interest in the loss
   of subsidiary occurred due to the sale of 19% of NPSI to Hobbs Industries
   ("Hobbs").

   LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES.
   ------------------------------- 

     At June 30, 1996, the Company had current liabilities totaling $1,862,835
   and current assets of $142,867 for a working capital deficit of $1,719,968
   due primarily to operating losses and short-term borrowings to purchase and
   develop a coal mine.  Management is seeking additional equity financing for
   the short-term until coal production commences.  In addition, the Company's
   president has agreed to accept equity in settlement of demand notes with a
   balance of $826,390 at December 31, 1995.

                               OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

   On August 10, 1995 NPSI entered into an agreement with Hobbs to purchase all
interest of Hobbs in a coal mine located near Sutton, Alaska and all mining
equipment, supplies and other property used or useful in connection with the
coal mine.  In an effort to avoid the agreement Hobbs filed a lawsuit against
NPSI and others in December 1995 seeking to avoid the August 10, 1995 contract
and also seeks several million dollars in damages.  To date, the court has made
several preliminary rulings, all of which are favorable to NPSI.  It is
counsel's opinion that this lawsuit has no merit and there is virtually no
chance that plaintiffs will succeed in their efforts to invalidate the agreement
or recover damages.  NPSI has taken a very aggressive posture in the lawsuit and
will continue to vigorously contest all allegations and efforts by plaintiffs to
obtain relief.

   ----------                               

   8-K.  On May 24, 1996 the Company filed an 8-K noting an amendment to the
   ---                                                                      
Articles of Incorporation.  The amendment reduced the number of classes of
preferred stock from two to one.

   The information set forth herein reflects all adjustments which are, in the
opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the
interim period.
