ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE COMPANY.
(a) - (b) The Reporting Person beneficially owns and has sole voting and
dispositive power for 8,983,884 shares of the Issuer's Common Stock, which

615,384 shares previously reported and purchased in a private offering, (iv)
98,500 shares previously reported and purchased through broker transactions, (v)
20,000 shares previously reported and subject to presently exercisable options.

value $500 per share (the "Series BB Preferred Stock"). The Reporting Person is
the sole shareholder of the Issuer's Series BB Preferred Stock. The Series BB
Preferred Stock was convertible to Common Stock, subject to shareholder

share of Common Stock. On July 15, 1999, the Issuer agreed to amend the terms of
the Series BB Preferred Stock to make it convertible at anytime, at the option
of the holder. The market closing price of the Common Stock on December 28, 1998
and May 28, 1999 was $.60 and $.375 per share, respectively.
As part of lending transactions during 1996, 1997 and 1998, the Issuer had
granted the Reporting Person a series of options (the "Options") to purchase an
aggregate of 850,000 shares of Common Stock with an exercise date of July 1,
1999 and an exercise price of $1.25 per share of Common Stock. On July 15, 1999,
the Reporting Person and the Issuer jointly agreed to irrevocably void the

direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, any
shares of Company Common Stock.
ITEM 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH
RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE COMPANY.
At July 15, 1999, the Issuer had obtained agreements with twenty-four (24)
stockholders of the Issuer's 9% Cumulative Convertible Class AAA Preferred
Stock, par value $.01 and liquidation value $500 per share (the "Class AAA
Preferred Stock") to convert their Class AAA Preferred Stock, valued at an
aggregate of $1,612,500, plus accrued dividends of $290,250, to Common Stock at
a conversion rate of $.90 per share of Common Stock. Upon the conversion, the
Issuer will issue an aggregate of 2,114,166 shares of Common Stock to these

Exhibit A
Subscription Agreement
GULFWEST OIL COMPANY
GulfWest Oil Company
397 N. Sam Houston Parkway E.,
Suite 375
Houston, Texas 77060
Gentlemen:
1. Subscription. The undersigned (the "Investor") subscribes for and agrees
to purchase shares of GulfWest Oil Company's ("GulfWest" or the "Company")Class
A Common Stock, par value $.001 per share (the "Shares")in the original
principal amount set forth on the signature page below. The Investor
acknowledges that this subscription (i) is irrevocable and (ii) is conditioned
upon acceptance by or on behalf of GulfWest and may be accepted or rejected in
whole or in part by GulfWest in its sole discretion.
2. Representations and Warranties. To induce GulfWest to accept this
subscription, the Investor represents and warrants as follows:
(a) The Investor has had adequate opportunity to obtain information from
and ask questions of the officers or representatives of GulfWest concerning the
business of GulfWest. The Investor has such knowledge and experience in
financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and
risks of an investment in the Shares, is able to bear the risks of an investment
in the Shares and understands the risks of, and other considerations relating
to, an investment in the Shares.
(b) The Investor is an "accredited investor" within the meaning of Rule
501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "Securities Act").
(c) The Shares to be acquired hereunder are being acquired by the Investor
for the Investor's own account for investment purposes only and not with a view
to resale or distribution.
(d) The Investor understands that the Shares have not been registered under
the Securities Act, the securities laws of any state or the securities laws of
any other jurisdiction, nor is such registration contemplated. The Investor
understands and agrees further that the Shares must be held indefinitely unless
subsequently registered under the Securities Act and these state securities laws
<PAGE>
SCHEDULE 13D
CUSIP NO. 40274P109 PAGE 7 OF 5
or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and these state
securities laws covering the sale of the Shares is available. The Investor
understands that legends stating that the Shares have not been registered under
the Securities Act and these state securities laws and setting out or referring
to the restrictions on the transferability and resale of the Shares will be
placed on the Shares. The Investor's overall commitment to GulfWest and other
investments which are not readily marketable is not disproportionate to the
Investor's net worth and the Investor has no need for immediate liquidity in the
Investor's investment in the Shares.
(e) To the full satisfaction of the Investor, the Investor has been
furnished any materials the Investor has requested relating to GulfWest or the
offering of the Shares, and the Investor has been afforded the opportunity to
ask questions of representatives of GulfWest concerning the terms and conditions
of the Offering and to obtain any additional information the Investor deems
necessary.
(f) The Investor is not relying upon any other information, representation
or warranty by GulfWest, or any of its affiliates or their respective agents in
determining to invest in GulfWest. The Investor has consulted to the extent
deemed appropriate by the Investor with the Investor's own advisers as to the
financial, tax, legal and related matters concerning an investment in the Shares
and on that basis believes that an investment in the Shares is suitable and
appropriate for the Investor.
(g) This Subscription Agreement has been duly executed by the Investor and
constitutes a valid and legally binding agreement of the Investor.
3. Payment of Subscription. The Investor shall pay the amount of the
Investor's subscription hereunder by delivery of a check made payable to
"GulfWest Oil Company."
4. Registration Rights. Commencing one (1) year and expiring three years
after the date of issuance, the holder of the Shares shall have the right on one
(1) occasion to participate on a "piggyback basis" in a registration by the
Company of the Shares, in the event the Company files a registration statement
on a form promulgated by the Securities Exchange Commission pursuant to which
the sale of the Shares may be registered (such registration statement, a
"Qualifying Registration Statement"). The Company will, at the Investor's
option, cause the Shares to be registered under the Securities Act (either
on a current or continuous or delayed basis) under such Qualifying Registration
Statement. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as requiring the Company
to file a Qualifying Registration Statement at any time. The Company's
obligations as set forth in this paragraph in any event shall be subject to and
limited by (i) applicable law and (ii) if the Qualifying Registration Statement
relates to an underwritten offering, the reasonable requirements, conditions and
limitations (including but not limited to any limitation upon the number of
shares of common stock that may be sold pursuant to the Qualifying Registration
Statement) as may be required or imposed by the underwriters of such
underwritten offering. The Company shall only be required to effect one
registration pursuant to this paragraph. In any event, the Company's obligations
as set forth in this section shall extinguish on the date that is three years
following the date of issue of the Shares.

warranties made by the Investor in this Subscription Agreement shall survive the
closing of the transactions contemplated hereby and any investigation made by

which together shall constitute one instrument, and shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas.
