PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
General
National Equities Holdings, Inc. (the "Company" or the "Registrant")
is an independent energy company primarily engaged in the exploration,
development and exploitation of oil and gas properties. The Company does
business under the name "NEHI Petroleum Corporation" ("NEHI"). Prior to August
9, 1996, the Company was not involved in the oil & gas activities. The Company
at one time owned a license to use a subsurface irrigation system, and the
Company also owns a copyright, "Total Prevention 102," which is an educational
game dealing with AIDS, drug abuse, alcohol abuse and sexually transmitted
diseases.
The Company was initially organized in Delaware on November 24, 1987
under the name "Asquith Venture Associates, Inc." On July 1, 1988, the Company
entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization with the shareholders of
Amadeus Corporation, a Nevada corporation incorporated in April 1987, to
acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Amadeus.
On October 27, 1988, the Company changed its name to "Amadeus Holdings, Inc."
and adopted its present name on January 20, 1993. In August 1996, the Company
acquired the proved oil and gas assets of Erin Oil Exploration, Inc. ("Erin"),
a Texas corporation, located in west Texas and West Virginia. With this
acquisition, the business focus of the Company changed to the oil and gas
industry and an oil and gas industry management team was installed.
The Company's exploration efforts are focused primarily on the Gulf
Coast and Upper Gulf Coast salt basins of the southeast United States and the
Permian Basin area of west Texas and southeast New Mexico. Management's
experience in all the major oil and gas producing basins of the United States
allows the Company the flexibility of pursuing other producing opportunities as
they are presented. The Company's primary efforts will be to assemble leases
on well documented oil and gas exploration prospects and obtain industry or
non-industry participants to drill the prospects. This will be done on
individual or multiple prospect packages. The Company will retain a working
interest between 25% and 50% in each well. Larger working interests may also
be retained by the Company in certain prospects depending upon assessed risk,
capital availability, and other factors.
The subsurface irrigation system was a new technology and in order to
break into the irrigation industry, the Company estimated that it would require
a minimum of $500,000 to enter the market place. The large competitors were
companies such as Toro and Rain Bird above-ground sprinkler system. Since the
Company had a license agreement with the inventor and did not own the patent,
it was unable to approach large companies for a joint venture. The license has
since expired and the Company has no further rights (or obligations) with
respect to such system.
The Company has been reviewing the strategic alternatives with respect
to the copyright on
3
<PAGE> 4
the educational game, which requires updated material on a regular basis at a
cost in excess of $30,000 before profits can be derived. The Company has not
been able to compete financially in the world of software and has not found a
large software company interested in licensing the program.
Exploration Strategy
The identification and development of exploratory prospects to achieve
reserve growth, increase cash flow, and enhance share value are the central
focus of the Company's business. Prospects are generated primarily internally,
by joint venture participation with industry partners, and by consulting
explorationists with which the Company has a working relationship.
The Company's exploration strategy is to establish stable, long lived
oil and gas production and cash flow by innovative exploration programs in
proven prolific oil and gas trends of the United States. Gas exploration
prospects must have potential reserves of the equivalent of 50 billion cubic
feet of gas or more and multiple productive zone opportunities capable of
producing the equivalent of 10 million cubic feet of gas or more per day.
The Company utilizes modern, high-technology exploration methods to
reduce risks and uses precision horizontal drilling where applicable, to
increase oil and gas deliverability. It also packages the drilling of low risk
development wells to supply a steady replacement of reserves by utilizing
investor money.
Competition
The business of exploring, developing and producing oil and gas is
highly competitive. The Company competes with numerous firms and other
individuals in its activities, including major oil firms and other independent
exploration and producing firms, many of which have substantially greater
financial resources, management and technical staffs, and facilities than those
of the Company. Major and independent oil and gas companies and individuals
actively bid for desirable producing properties as well as unexplored oil and
gas prospects and compete for equipment, services, and labor required to
explore, develop and operate such properties. The Company faces intense
competition from other energy firms attempting to form exploration groups to
provide funding to complete desired exploration, including drilling. In the
opinion of the Company, the decision of a firm to participate in a proposed
exploration group is based on the estimated likelihood of finding oil and gas
in commercial quantities, the cost of exploration and, if warranted,
development, the size of the potential reservoir, the interest to be earned by
completing specified exploration or drilling or providing necessary funding,
alternative opportunities for the employment of limited capital, the
exploration philosophy or area of interest of potential participants, the
reputation of the Company, and other factors, many of which are beyond the
control of the Company.
In its efforts to acquire leases or other exploration rights in new
prospect areas, the Company
4
<PAGE> 5
faces competition from major oil companies, independent oil firms, and oil and
gas speculators. The ability to acquire leases or exploration rights is
generally determined by the amount of cash required to obtain the property
interest, the royalty or other interest reserved by the transferor, and the
nature of any commitment to drill or complete other exploration.
Employees
As of December 31, 1996, the Company employed three full-time persons
and utilizes five consultants. The Company's employees are not represented by
a union.
Other Industry Segments
No expenses were used or revenues derived from any other segment of
the Company. Although the Company owns the copyright of the video game as an
asset, no efforts have been made to capitalize on it as a profit center.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
Fisher County, Texas
The Company has four primary properties in Fisher County, Texas that
are currently producing. The four properties are located in different lease
blocks along the western flank of the Bend Arch and on the Eastern Shelf of the
Permian Basin. The properties are listed below:
The Pardue-Holly Lease - The Pardue-Holly lease consists of 640 acres
with two wells now producing oil. On this lease, the Flippen Lime, Swastika
Sand and Canyon Sand formations are capable of production.
The Neversuch Lease - The Neversuch lease has 156 acres with two wells
now producing. The main formation on this lease that has potential for
production is the Flippen Lime.
The Young Lease - The Young lease has one producing well on 640 acres.
On this lease, the Flippen Lime, Swastika Sand and Noodle Creek Sand formations
have potential for production.
The Scifres Lease - The Scifres lease currently has one well on this
40 acre lease. Formations that are capable of producing in the area are the
Flippen Lime at approximately 3,100 feet, the Swastika Sand at 3,700 feet, and
the Canyon Sand at 4,300 to 4,600 feet.
The Company believes all of the above described lease blocks have
potential for future drilling and the Company is considering additional
development drilling on each block. It should be noted that some wells in the
area were drilled and completed in the 1940's, 1950's and 1960's and are still
producing.
5
<PAGE> 6
The Company's interest in those properties in Fisher County has proved
producing reserves of 329,365 barrels of oil.
Scurry County, Texas
The Scurry County lease block consists of 200 acres. A study of the
electric logs of the area shows that the Tonto formation (called the 1,700 foot
pay zone) is present over a wide area. The pay zone on the Company's lease is
well developed and is 20 feet higher structurally to the wells on offsetting
leases. The Lario No. 1, 2, and 3 wells on the lease block, which were drilled
in the late 1960's and early 1970's, did not test this zone.
Examination of electric logs shows good porosity and resistivity which
are indicative of oil production in the area. The rock type of this reservoir
is an oolitic dolomite with porosity between 17% and 23%.
Based on examination of the wells in the area, it is estimated that a
typical well on the Company's lease will produce approximately 20,000 barrels
of oil per well. Since well spacing in the area is 10 acres per well, it is
estimated that the least could produce 400,000 barrels of oil. The Company has
a 100% working interest and an 80% net revenue interest in this lease. Net
proved undeveloped reserves owned by the Company in Scurry County are 320,000
barrels of oil.
It is possible to produce more oil from this field after production is
established by installing a gas injection system between producing wells. This
process would increase production possibilities to a total of 800,000 barrels.
Should the Company determine to allocate additional capital to developing this
field, the Company wold generate additional proved undeveloped reserves of
640,000 barrels of oil.
Coleman County, Texas
The Company has one lease block in Coleman County, Texas which
comprises 144.78 acres. As of year end 1996, three exploratory wells have been
drilled on the lease to approximately 3,100 feet. The first well has been
completed and tested in the Palo Pinto Lime formation (a historically
productive interval) below 3,000 feet with encouraging results and is awaiting
regulatory approval and marketing. The second well has also been completed and
tested in the Palo Pinto Lime and is currently waiting on pumping equipment.
The third well has been suspended pending the results of the first two wells;
however, the Palo Pinto Lime is also the target in this wellbore.
Walker County, Texas
This block consists of 179.57 acres and is located in close proximity
to successful horizontal Austin Chalk gas wells drilled by offsetting
operators. The Austin Chalk in this area exists at a depth of approximately
13,000 feet, and it can be a very prolific, high volume gas producer. A study
of electric logs and geological maps is underway to delineate the trend and to
plan the intended
6
<PAGE> 7
drilling program. The drilling permit has already been obtained for this
horizontal well.
Gonzales County, Texas
This block consists of 234.5 acres and is located adjacent to
previously successful Austin Chalk and/or Buda Limestone oil wells drilled by
offsetting operators in the early 1980's. Several of these wells have produced
over 100,000 barrels of oil and are still producing. The Austin Chalk in this
area exists at approximately 9,000 feet. A study of the surrounding production
data, electric logs and maps is underway to evaluate this leasehold for a
drilling location.
Ritchie County, West Virginia
The Company purchased five wells during 1996 in Ritchie County, West
Virginia which were all re-entry candidates on 5 acre leases in various
productive intervals of Devonian aged rock, at depths ranging from 2,000 to
4,000 feet. All of these wells have been re-worked to some extent with
encouraging results; however, all of them require further work and evaluation.
Pleasants County, West Virginia
The Company drilled one development well in 1996 in Pleasants County,
West Virginia. The well was completed in various intervals of the Devonian
Shale horizon at approximately 5,000 feet and initial test results were very
good. The well requires the installation of a tubing string to enhance fluid
lift and thereby increase gas production. This work will be done in the near
future.
Reserves
In general, estimates of economically recoverable oil and natural gas
reserves and of the future net revenues therefrom are based upon a number of
variable factors and assumptions such as historical production from the subject
properties, the assumed efforts of regulation by governmental agencies and
assumptions concerning future oil and natural gas prices and future operating
costs, all of which may vary considerably from actual results. All such
estimates are to some degree speculative and classifications of reserves are
only attempts to define the degree of speculation involved. For these reasons,
estimates of the economically recoverable oil and natural gas reserves
attributable to any particular group of properties, classifications of such
reserves based on risk of recovery and estimates of the future net revenues
expected therefrom, prepared by different engineers or by the same engineers at
different times, may vary substantially. Therefore, the actual production,
revenues, severance and excise taxes, development and operating expenditures
with respect to the Company's reserves will likely vary from such estimates,
and such variances could be material.
In accordance with applicable requirements of the Commission, the
estimated discounted future net revenues from estimated proved reserves are
based on prices and costs as of the date of the estimate unless such prices or
costs are contractually determined at such date. Actual future
7
<PAGE> 8
prices and costs may be materially higher or lower. Actual future net revenues
also will be affected by factors such as actual production, supply and demand
for oil and natural gas, curtailments or increases in consumption by natural
gas purchasers, changes in governmental regulations or taxation and the impact
of inflation on costs.
Acreage
Title to Properties. As is customary in the oil and natural gas
industry, the Company makes only a cursory review of title to undeveloped oil
and natural gas leases at the time they are acquired by the Company. However,
before drilling commences, the Company causes a thorough title search to be
conducted, and any material defects in title are remedied prior to the time
actual drilling of a well on the lease begins. To the extent title opinions or
other investigations reflect title defects, the Company, rather than the seller
or lessor of the undeveloped property, is typically obligated to cure any such
title defects at its expense. If the Company were unable to remedy or cure any
title defect of a nature such that it would not be prudent to commence drilling
operations on the property, the Company could suffer a loss of its entire
investment in drilling operations on the property. The Company believes that
it has good title to its oil and natural gas properties, some of which are
subject to immaterial encumbrances, easements and restrictions.
The oil and natural gas properties owned by the Company are also
typically subject to royalty and other similar non-cost bearing interests
customary in the industry. The Company does not believe that any of these
encumbrances or burdens will materially affect the Company's ownership or use
of its properties.
Marketing of Production. The Company's production is marketed to
third parties consistent with industry practices. Typically, oil is sold at
the wellhead at field posted prices and natural gas is sold under contract at a
negotiated price based upon factors normally considered in the industry, such
as price regulations, distance from the well to the pipeline, well pressure,
estimated reserves, quality of natural gas and prevailing supply/demand
conditions.
Reserves Reported to Other Agencies
During fiscal year 1996, there were no estimates of total, proved net
oil or gas reserves filed with or included in reports to any other Federal
authority or agency.
Production
The production of crude oil by Erin/NEHI represents one fiscal year
(1/1/96 thru 12/31/96) and is shown below as required by SFAS No. 69. Total
annual gross production was 11,283 bbls (6,330 net).

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS.
GENERAL
NEHI operations during the first seven months of 1996 were a
continuation of the development of its patented subsurface irrigation system.
Two years were spent experimenting with various applications for the subsurface
irrigation system and refining the methods of installation.
The Company has a copyright on a family educational game which is
wholly owned by the Company, however, in order to market the software product,
the data and information for the game will have to be updated and animation
will have to be developed to make the game competitive with other software
products in the market place. The management of the Company is evaluating this
asset.
In August, the Company acquired $8,650,000 of oil and gas production
and proven reserves to be developed through additional drilling. New acting
directors were appointed and new management was employed to operate NEHI, d/b/a
NEHI Petroleum Corporation, as an oil and gas exploration Company.
The Company is primarily focusing on its oil and gas properties in
Fisher County, Texas and Scurry County, Texas, as well as additional
acquisitions of oil and gas leases and production, and corporate mergers, which
will provide the Company with a balance between its oil and gas reserves and a
diversification of the areas in which it operates. New management plans to
continue this business plan and method utilized successfully by Erin for 23
years.
NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995
The Company reported a net loss during the nine months ended September
30, 1996 of $787,180, as compared to net income of $13,000 at December 31,
1995. The decrease in net income is primarily due to the write-off of the
copyright and the charge of the capitalized cost of the patent to this period.
Gross revenues decreased $30,000, reflecting no activity in sales
based on the non-marketability of the Company's assets.
Operating expenses increased $61,000. The increase is primarily due
to increased compensation expense, professional expenses and other expenses.
16
<PAGE> 17
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
NEHI reported an operating loss of $66,515 for the nine months of 1996
ending with the audit of September 30, 1996. This operating loss reflects the
operations prior to the acquisition of the oil and gas assets. The Company
currently has income from production.
The Company currently believes that its operating income from its
existing oil and gas production is projected to exceed $170,000 in 1997.
Currently planned drilling of lease blocks with existing oil and gas production
could increase this amount to be in excess of $700,000 of operating income for
1997. The Company currently intends to drill additional wells to develop the
leases the Company owns. NEHI will follow a policy of retaining as much of
each well drilled as possible to increase its production revenues and the
profits of the Company. The objective is to retain fifty percent of the net
revenue of each well.
The acquisition of additional oil and gas leases, production and
companies will be funded through the possible sale of securities by NEHI, or
otherwise through bank or third-party financing.

BUSINESS EXPERIENCE OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS
Bill M. Knollenberg. Mr. Knollenberg received a honorable discharge
from the U.S. Navy in 1946 and immediately was employed by Sun Oil Company. He
worked for Sun Oil for three years as a roughneck on a drilling rig, then a
roust-about, and then a pumper. Mr. Knollenberg decided to go into sales and
for four years worked in traveling sales. In 1953, he went into new car sales
and worked his way into management. After moving to Houston, Texas in 1965, he
began floor planning used car dealers. In 1974 he sold the business at a
profit and started a heavy equipment rental company which is built into a
multi-million dollar business and then sold in 1980. In 1982, after deciding
retirement was not what he wanted, Mr. Knollenberg began selling oil and gas
ventures. In 1995, Gulf Minerals Exploration, a general partnership of which
Mr. Knollenberg, Doris C. Knollenberg and A. Bradley Knollenberg are partners,
acquired controlling interest in Erin Oil Exploration, Inc., with Mr.
Knollenberg assuming the position of Chairman of the Board of Directors. In
August of 1996, Gulf Minerals Exploration became the largest shareholder of
NEHI and Mr. Knollenberg assumed the position of Chairman of the Board of
Directors of NEHI.

executive in exploration, development, production and operations. Mr. McGowen
ceased being a director in May 1997 when all his affiliations with the Company

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS.
On August 9, 1996, the Company acquired the proved oil and gas
reserves of Erin Oil Exploration, Inc. ("ERIN"). The Company issued
21,510,418 shares of its common stock for proved oil and gas reserves having
a discounted cash value of $12,464,584.00. As a part of this transaction, the
Company assumed the liability for Convertible debentures issued by Erin in the
amount of $2,770,000. Subsequently, the value of the transaction was lowered
to the carrying value of the existing wells plus the purchase cost of the
reserves for the twenty well program less the Erin Debentures outstanding. The
Common Stock issued was reduced to 13,122,045. The transaction was a
nonmonetary exchange, i.e., the Company exchanged its common stock for the
discounted cash flow value of ERIN's oil and gas reserves and assumed liability
for ERIN's convertible Debentures. The agreement requires the Company to
assume the operation of the drilling programs and well operations effective
October 1, 1996. The assets, however, were acquired August 9, 1996.
The ERIN transaction was using a trust so that there would not be
issues related to (1)control of the assets before and after the transaction,
and (2)related party issues. Subsequently, a legal opinion has been received
which indicates that the trust for the Knollenberg family is, in fact, a Texas
general partnership of which Bill Knollenberg and his family members are
partners. The transaction is an exchange of nonmonetary assets by each party,
i.e., common stock was exchanged for oil & gas reserves and the assumption of
debt.
Ms. P.A. Hartley, former Chairman of the Board of Directors, received
180,000 shares of common stock for services rendered on behalf of the company
for the eight month period from January 1, 1996 through August 9, 1996, under
the agreement authorized by the Board of Directors at a meeting of the Board of
Directors, January 6, 1996.

Independent Auditor Report
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
National Equities Holdings, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of National Equities Holdings,
Inc. as of September 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995, and the related statements
of operations, stockholders equity, and cash flows for the nine months and the
one month then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audit. The financial statements of National
Equities Holdings, Inc. for the eleven months ended November 30, 1995 and the
year ended December 31, 1994 were audited by other auditors whose report dated
December 27, 1995 expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, based on our audit, the financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of National
Equities Holdings as of September 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995, and the
results of their operations and their cash flows for the nine months and one
month then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental information regarding
revenues and direct expenses of the oil and gas properties is presented for
purposes of additional analysis and has not been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements, and,
accordingly, we express no opinion on it.
As discussed in Notes 14 and 16 to the financial statements, the Company's oil
and gas properties previously reported as $6,873,384 should have been
$4,115,563. Additionally, the Company's Patent and Copyright previously
reported as $298,358 and $360,753 respectively should have been reported as
zero. This discovery was made subsequent to the issuance of the financial
statements. The financial statements have been restated to Reflect this
correction.

NATIONAL EQUITIES HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT
September 30, 1996
and December 31, 1995
NOTE 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
This summary of significant accounting policies of NATIONAL EQUITIES HOLDINGS,
INC. is presented to assist in understanding the Company's financial
statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the
Company's management, which is responsible for their integrity and
objectivity. These accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting
principles and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the
financial statements.
a. Organization and Business Activities:
Asquith Venture Associates, Inc. was formed on November 24, 1987 with a name
change to Amadeus Holdings, Inc. on October 27, 1988. Corporate stock was
issued for the organization of several business ventures, all of which were
unsuccessful. On January 20, 1993 there was a name change to National Equities
Holdings, Inc. The business purpose is to market a subsurface irrigation system
(Patent number 5,205,487), a family educational game (Copyright Txu 516862)
(See Notes 2, 13, and 14), future real estate construction and development, and
oil and gas production and development.
b. Depreciation, amortization and depletion:
Depreciation will be provided by the straight-line method at rates calculated
to amortize cost over the estimated useful lives of respective assets. Upon
sale or retirement of the respective assets, the related cost and accumulated
depreciation will be eliminated from the accounts, and gains or losses will be
reflected on the income statement. Repair and maintenance expenditures, not
anticipated to extend original asset lives, will be charged to expenses as
incurred. Amortization of patent and copyright costs will be provided by the
straight line method when these products are brought to market. Depreciation
and depletion (including provisions for future abandonment and restoration
costs) of all capitalized costs of proved oil and gas producing properties,
except mineral interests, will be expensed using the unit-of-production method
by individual fields as the proved developed reserves are produced. Depletion
expenses for capitalized costs of proved mineral interest are recognized using
the unit-of-production method by individual fields as the related proved
reserves are produced. Periodic valuation provisions for impairment of
capitalized costs of unproved mineral interests will be expensed.
F-10
<PAGE> 34
c. Fiscal Year:
The Company operates on a December 31 calendar year.
d. Cash and Cash Equivalents:
The Company considers all cash accounts, which are not subject to withdrawal
restrictions or penalties, and all highly liquid debt instruments purchased
with a maturity of three months or less, to be cash equivalents.
e. Basis of Accounting:
The Company prepares its financial statements and federal income taxes on the
accrual basis of accounting. The Company's oil and gas ventures will be
accounted for using the Successful Efforts basis of accounting.
Revenue Recognition:
The Company will recognize revenue from oil produced at the point of sale that
is, when the oil is run from the tanks. Gas is not stored on the lease; thus,
revenue will be recognized at the point of production and sale because they are
the same.
Oil & Gas Properties (Successful Efforts):
Costs to acquire mineral interests in oil and gas properties, to drill and
equip exploratory wells that find proved reserves, and to drill and equip
development wells will be capitalized. Costs to drill exploratory wells that do
not find proved reserves, geological and geophysical costs, and costs of
carrying and retaining unproved properties will be expensed.
Unproved oil and gas properties that are individually significant will be
periodically assessed for impairment of value, and a loss will be recognized at
the time of impairment by providing an impairment allowance. Other unproved
properties will be amortized based on the Company's experience of successful
drilling and average holding period. Capitalized costs of producing oil and gas
properties, after considering estimated dis-mantlement and abandonment costs
and estimated salvage values, will be depreciated and depleted by the
unit-of-production method. Support equipment and other property and equipment
will be depreciated over their estimated useful lives.
On the sale or retirement of a complete unit of a proved property, the cost and
related accumulated depreciation, depletion, and amortization will be
eliminated from the property accounts, and the resultant gain or loss will be
recognized. On the retirement or sale of a partial unit of proved property, the
cost will be charged to accumulated depreciation, depletion and amortization
with a resulting gain or loss recognized in income.
F-11
<PAGE> 35
On the sale of an entire interest in an unproved property for cash or cash
equivalent, gain or loss on the sale will be recognized, taking into
consideration the amount of any recorded impairment if the property had been
assessed individually. If a partial interest in an unproved property is sold,
the amount received will be treated as a reduction of the cost of the interest
retained.
Oil and gas leases held for resale:
The Company will acquire certain oil and gas leases for the purpose of
contributing the leases to affiliated oil and gas partnerships of for the
purpose of selling the leases to industry partners for cash consideration. Such
leases held for resale, or subsequently acquired, will be periodically reviewed
to determine if they have been impaired. If impairment exists, a loss will be
recognized by providing an impairment allowance. Abandonments of oil and gas
leases held for resale will be charged to expense. With respect to leases
transferred to affiliated oil and gas partnerships, the determination of
recovery of total costs will be made on a partnership-by-partnership basis.
Capitalized interest:
The Company will capitalize interest on expenditures for significant
exploration and development projects while activities are in progress to bring
the assets to their intended use.
Management Fees:
In connection with the sponsorship of oil and gas partnerships, the Company
will receive a management fee from partnership subscriptions, which will be
credited to income as earned.
NOTE 2: Copyright & Patent Costs:
Copyright Txu 516862, issued for the family educational game, Patent Number
5,205,487 issued for the subsurface irrigation system have been test marketed
by the Company. It has been determined that a market for each product exists,
however lack of funding has kept the Company from aggressively marketing these
products. Stock and notes were issued to purchase these products. (SEE NOTE 14)
NOTE 3: Asset Acquisition
On August 9, 1996, the Company acquired the Proved Oil and Gas Reserves of Erin
Oil Exploration, Inc. The Company issued 21,510,418 shares of its common stock
for proved oil and gas reserves having a discounted cash value of
$12,464,584.00. As a part of this transaction, the Company assumed the
liability for Convertible debentures issued by Erin in the amount of
$2,770,000. Subsequently, the value of the transaction was lowered to the
carrying value of the existing wells plus the purchase cost of the reserves for
the twenty well program less
F-12
<PAGE> 36
the Erin Debentures outstanding. The Common Stock issued was reduced to
13,122,045. The transaction was a nonmonetary exchange, i.e., the Company
exchanged its common stock for the discounted cash flow value of ERIN's oil
and gas reserves and assumed liability for ERIN's convertible Debentures.
The agreement requires the Company to assume the operation of the drilling
programs and well operations effective October 1, 1996. The assets, however,
were acquired August 9, 1996.(SEE NOTE 16)
NOTE 4: Risks and Uncertainties:
Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures.
Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Concentrations: The Company has acquired Proved Reserves in the oil and gas
industry. This will place the majority of the Company's assets in this
industry.
NOTE 5: Change in Control:
The acquisition of the Proved reserves from Erin Oil Exploration, Inc. resulted
in a change of control of the Company. The previous officers and directors
resigned and new directors were elected to fill the unexpired terms and serve
until the annual stockholder's meeting at which time new directors will be
elected. The Directors elected to serve the unexpired terms are as follows:
Acting Directors:
Bill M. Knollenberg
Bill S. McGowen (1)
(1) Mr. McGowen ceased being a director in May 1997 when all his affiliations
with the Company ceased.
Officers:
Bill M. Knollenberg is the Chairman of the Board, President and Secretary
NOTE 6 -- Convertible Debentures:
As a part of the acquisition of the proved oil and gas reserves from Erin Oil
Exploration, Inc., the Company assumed liability for the Convertible Debentures
previously issued by Erin. The debentures were issued at various times during
the current year at an interest rate of 8% with interest accruing and due and
payable on January 5, 1997 and with interest and principal due on January 5,
1998. At the first anniversary date of the debenture and at the option of the
Company, the
F-13
<PAGE> 37
debentures are convertible into common stock of the Company. The conversion
ratio varies from 2.0 to 0.75 per share of common stock, depending upon the
amount of the debenture. A principal amount of $5,000,000 has been authorized
by the ERIN Board of Directors, of which, $2,770,000 have been sold and are
outstanding on the balance sheet date. If converted on the call date, the
outstanding debentures will represent 1,800,000 shares of the Company's Common
Stock. NEHI assumed the existing outstanding debentures as a part of the
acquisition transaction and will continue the program until the entire
$5,000,000 is outstanding.
NOTE 7 -- Stock Options:
On August 9, 1996, an option was granted to Diversified Service Brokers, Inc.,
an unrelated party, to purchase 200,000 shares of the common stock of the
Company, at $0.44 per share. This option expires on August 8, 1999 and was
based on a previous purchase of stock for cash at $0.44 per share.
NOTE 8 --Income Taxes;
Income tax expense (benefit) is comprised of current tax expense, deferred tax
expense and Benefits from net operating loss carryforward. The Company has
available at September 30, 1996, unused net operating loss carryforwards that
may provide future tax benefits. However, since doubt exists as to the actual
future benefit to be realized, an allowance has been made and no deferred tax
asset, relating to the net operating loss carryforward, has not been reported
in these financial statements.

NOTE 9 -- Mergers and Acquisitions:
During the nine months ended September 30, 1996, the company made a significant
acquisition of assets as summarized below:
On August 9, 1996, the Company acquired oil and gas reserves in Texas from Erin
Oil Exploration, Inc, a previously unrelated party, in exchange for a net
13,122,045 shares of common stock. The transaction was valued at the seller's
basis and effectively passed control of the Company to a new shareholder. Erin
simultaneously transferred its holdings in NEHI to a trust for the Knollenberg
family. (SEE NOTE 16)
NOTE 10 -- Stockholder's Equity:
F-14
<PAGE> 38
The total number of shares of all classes of authorized capital stock is
50,000,000 shares of which 1,000,000 shall be Preferred Stock, $.001 par value
per share and 49,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $.001 par value per share. As
of September 30, 1996, there is no Preferred Stock issued and outstanding and
14,873,620 shares of Common Stock are issued and are outstanding.
NOTE 12 -- Industry Segment Information:
During the nine months ended September 30, 1996, the Company explored current
opportunities in the sub-surface irrigation industry and in the educational
game industry. No action was taken by the Company to further develop the
Company 's position in these industries. (SEE NOTE 14)
The oil and gas drilling and production segment was acquired in August of 1996
with production scheduled to be assumed October 1, 1996. The major business is
the production and sales of oil and gas from existing wells and drilling of oil
and gas wells. This will be done for the Company's own account, for outside
companies, or for oil and gas partnerships. No drilling operations business
was conducted by the Company during the first nine months of the current year.
As of September 30, 1996, the Company had not commenced any operations which
resulted in income or expenses to the Company. Acquisition of the proven
reserves have been disclosed as a separate line item on the balance sheet.
There was also no income or expenses attributed to the previously existing
industry segments during the nine months ended September 30, 1996.
NOTE 13: Asset Impairment
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards no. 121, Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of,
applies to (1) long-lived assets, certain identifiable intangibles and goodwill
related to those assets to be held and used and (2) long-lived assets and
certain identifiable intangibles to be disposed of. Management is responsible
for considering whether an asset is impaired. SFAS 121 requires impairment
testing of assets to be held and used only when events or circumstances
indicate carrying amounts may not be recoverable.
Previous Company management had taken the position that no impairment exists to
the patent/license and copyright as of the balance sheet date. (SEE NOTE 14)
Proved Reserves are reviewed annually by independent petroleum engineers who
issue a report which estimates discounted future cash flows. As disclosed in
footnote 1, management will review these future reports for indicated
impairment and take appropriate steps if impairment exists.
NOTE 14: Write off of Assets:
Statement of Financial Standards No. 2, Accounting for Research and Development
Costs Indicates costs which are included in research and development and costs
of activities which are typically excluded from research and development. The
Development Costs which were previously
F-15
<PAGE> 39
capitalized are more properly treated as expense items as incurred. Therefore,
they have been written off against income in the current period. The inventory
items are judged to be obsolete with no discernable future value and have been
written off against income in the current period. Subsequent to the date of the
audit report, information was discovered which required that the patent and
copyright be written off against income. The patent was discovered to be a
license issued by the actual patent holder. Previous management had issued
stock to reimburse the patent holder for the cost of obtaining the patent and
received a license to distribute the product. This cost was capitalized and
classified as a patent. The Company received correspondence revoking the
license and has elected to charge the capitalized cost of the patent to income
in this period.
The copyright for a family educational game has been evaluated and determined
to be out of date. SFAS 86 requires computer software be evaluated for evidence
of having achieved technological feasibility. While technological feasibility
may have been reached in an earlier period, current research indicates that
additional costs of updating the software and bringing the product to market
are greater than the potential cash flows which may be generated. Therefore
management has elected to write this asset off in the current period.
NOTE 15: Debt Forgiveness Income:
During 1996, the former President of the Company made several cash advances to
and on behalf of the Company. These advances were acknowledged as a debt of the
Company and were forgiven by the former President as a part of the transaction,
which occurred on August 9, 1996.
NOTE 16: Information Subsequent to Date of Audit Report:
Subsequent to the issuance of the Audit Report, dated October 23, 1996, on the
September 30, 1996 financial statements, information was discovered which has
required that the assets described as Proved Reserves be revalued. The original
transaction was accounted for as a purchase transaction. The transaction was
using a trust so that there would not be issues related to (1)control of the
assets before and after the transaction, and (2)related party issues.
Subsequently, a legal opinion has been received which indicates that the trust
for the Knollenberg family is, in fact, a Texas general partnership. As such,
control resided in the hands of the same party, before and after, and the
transaction should have been recorded at the transferor's historical cost.
This requires that the audit report be re-issued. The reserves were recorded at
$6,854,486 which was ERIN's future discounted net cash flows less future costs
to develop these cash flows. Due to the control issue, the reserves should
have been recorded at historical cost of $1,239,263. The transaction is an
exchange of nonmonetary assets by each party, i.e., common stock was exchanged
for oil & gas reserves and the assumption of debt. APB 29 governs the
accounting for nonmonetary transactions. The general rule established by APB 29
is that the accounting for nonmonetary transactions should be based on the fair
values of the assets involved. The fair value to be used is that of the asset
surrendered unless the fair value of the asset received is more clearly evident.
Fair value is defined in APB 29 as: the estimated realizable values in cash
transactions of the same or similar assets, quoted market prices, independent
appraisals, estimated fair values of assets or services received in exchange,
and other available evidence.
F-16
<PAGE> 40
The original transaction used a negotiated per share value of $0.44 as a stock
value. Trading information prior to the date of the transaction is not
reliable, because few trades were being made. Therefore, a ready market price
for the stock is not determinable. The transaction involved trading common
stock for reserves plus the assumption of debt. Therefore the transaction has
been valued at historical cost of $1,239,263 plus the debt assumed of
$2,876,300, or $4,115,263 which equals $0.31 per share.
Note 17: Development Stage Corporation
The Company was formerly a development stage corporation. The acquisition of
the oil and gas reserves from Erin Oil Exploration, Inc., effective October 1,
1996 marks the beginning of an operating cycle for the Company. In this and
future periods, the Company will be reporting as an operating company.

Reserve Information
The following estimates of proved and proved developed reserves quantities and
related standardized measure of discounted net cash flow are estimates only,
and do not purport to reflect realizable values or fair market values of the
Company's reserves. The Company emphasizes that reserve estimates are
inherently imprecise and that estimates of new discoveries are more imprecise
than those of producing oil and gas properties. Accordingly, these estimates
are expected to change as future information becomes available. All of the
Company's reserves are located in the United States.
Proved reserves are estimated reserves of crude oil (including condensate and
natural gas liquids) and natural gas that geological and engineering data
demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from
known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions. Proved
developed reserves are those expected to be recovered through existing wells,
equipment, and operating methods.
The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows is computed by
applying year-end prices of oil and gas (with consideration of price changes
only to the extent provided by contractual arrangements) to the estimated
future production of proved oil and gas reserves, less estimated future
expenditures (based on year-end costs) to be incurred in developing and
producing the proved reserves, less estimated future income tax expense (based
on year-end statutory tax rates, with consideration of future tax rates already
legislated) to be incurred on pretax net cash flows less tax basis of the
properties and available credits, and assuming continuation of existing
economic conditions. The estimated future net cash flows are then discounted
using a rate of 10 percent a year to reflect the estimated timing of the future
cash flows.
The following information has been extracted from a reserve report dated April
7, 1997 for proved reserves and future net cash flows associated with those
reserves as of January 1, 1997.
