     Board of Directors

     Natural Gas Transmission Services, Inc.

     Dallas, Texas

     We  have   audited  the   accompanying   balance   sheets  of  Natural  Gas
Transmissions  Services,  Inc.  (an S  Corporation)  as of December 31, 1996 and
1995  and the related statements of income, retained earnings and cash flows for
the years 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.

     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 from
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 audits  provide a  reasonable  basis for our
opinion.

     In our opinion,  the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material  aspects,  the  financial  position of Natural Gas Transmissions
Services,  Inc.  as of  December  31,  1996 and  1995,  and the  results  of its
operations  and its cash  flows  for the years  then  ended in  conformity  with
generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTE 1:        SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED

         REVENUE RECOGNITION

                  Revenue consists of sales to natural gas buyers and end users.
                  The  Company   also   generates   revenue   from  natural  gas
                  administrative services.

                  Natural  Gas  Sales  -  Revenue  from  natural  gas  sales  is
                  recognized   upon  receiving   confirmation   from  the  buyer
                  detailing the  transaction  as to the buyer,  seller,  volume,
                  price  and  commitment  period.  The  gas,  if  necessary,  is
                  nominated  and is  recorded  as  revenue  based on the  actual
                  volume delivered per the pipeline  company.  Approximately 90%
                  of the gas  volumes  delivered  are  recorded  based on actual
                  versus nominated volumes. The revenue is recorded in the month
                  in which the gas is delivered to the buyer.

                  Administrative  Services  -  Services  income  is  derived  by
                  providing services to producers to nominate,  confirm, deliver
                  and  sale.  The  Company  charges  a  percentage  of the gross
                  revenue received by the producer from the sale.

                  The Company  performs credit  evaluations of its customers.  A
                  letter of credit or guaranty  from a customer  may be required
                  based upon the customer's credit worthiness.

         INVENTORY

                  Differences between the volumes of gas purchased and nominated
                  to customers and volumes  actually  delivered by the pipelines
                  (imbalances)  are included in inventory at a weighted  average
                  cost.  As of December 31,  1996,  the Company has an inventory
                  balance of $248,429.

         CONSIDERATION OF CREDIT RISK

                  The Company  maintains  its cash in bank  deposit  accounts at
                  high credit financial  institutions.  The balances,  at times,
                  may exceed federally  insured limits. At December 31, 1996 and
                  1995,  the  Company  exceeded  the  limit  by $0  and  $27,078
                  respectively.  Included  in cash  is  $4,187,449  of  interest
                  bearing  government  backed securities that are convertible to
                  cash on a daily basis.

         EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

                  The   Company   maintains   a   qualified   cash  or  deferred
                  compensation plan under section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue
                  Code. Under the Plan, domestic employees

                                      F-7

<PAGE>

NOTE 1:  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED

                  may  elect  to  defer  up to  fifteen  percent  (15%) of their
                  salary,  subject to the Internal  Revenue Service limits.  The
                  Company,  on an elective  basis,  contributes a matching fifty
                  percent  (50%)  of the  first  six  percent  (6%) of  employee
                  contributions.  Company  contributions to the plan amounted to
                  $11,090 and $5,964 for the periods ended December 31, 1996 and
                  1995, respectively.

         USE OF ESTIMATES

                  The preparation of financial  statements  based upon generally
                  accepted  accounting  principles  requires  management  to use
                  various  estimates  and  assumptions  that  could  impact  the
                  various assets,  liabilities  and revenue  recognition for the
                  reported  periods.  The actual  results  could differ from the
                  estimates.

         INCOME TAX

                  The shareholders of Natural Gas Transmissions  Services,  Inc.
                  have elected to be treated under  Subchapter S of the Internal
                  Revenue  Code.  Therefore,  there is no provision  for federal
                  income tax  presented in the financial  statements  due to the
                  tax responsibility being at the shareholders' level.  However,
                  due to the  distributions  made in 1996 in relationship to the
                  net income, on or before April 15, 1997, a distribution to the
                  shareholders  will be  required  to pay their  individual  tax
                  liability.

                  The Company  has an  outstanding  note  payable to the related
                  party  of  $237,104  as of  December  31,  1996,  which  bears
                  interest at 9% and is due on December  31,  1997.  The note is
                  unsecured.   The  note   payable  to  the  related   party  is
                  subordinated  to the debt arising from the credit  facility as
                  described  in  Note 3.  As of  December  31,  1996  and  1995,

certain  administrative  fees.  The rental  agreements  and fees are on a 30 day
basis and can be canceled by either party.  The aggregated  amounts paid for the
operating lease payments and administrative fees for 1996 and 1995, were $66,476
and $47,400, respectively.

         During  1996 and 1995,  the  Company  provided  certain  administrative

direct  guaranties and the guarantee of the credit  facility,  which amounted to
$12,000 and $5,990 for the periods ended December 31, 1996 and 1995. The details

NOTE 3:  CREDIT FACILITY

         On November 30, 1996 the Company  executed an agreement  with Bank One,
Texas  N.A.  to  provide  letters  of  credit  and  short-term  working  capital
arrangements.  The face of the revolving note is fifteen million  ($15,000,000).
This agreement  allows the Company to borrow or extend letters of credit up to a
limit determined by a borrowing base  calculation.  The borrowing base as of any
determination date is equal to the lessor of:

                  A.       The sum of  100% of  collected  funds  in  collateral
                           accounts  of Borrower  plus 60% of Eligible  Accounts
                           from Unrated Account Debtors as determined by Lenders
                           in  their  sole   discretion  plus  80%  of  Eligible

                           million  as of  the  balance  sheet  date)  less  the
                           aggregate  obligations  of Borrower to Persons  other
                           than Lenders,  as calculated by Lenders in their sole
                           discretion, that have been guaranteed by Guarantor.

         As of the date of the balance sheet,  the Company's  borrowing base was
$20,239,650. Outstanding letters of credit were as follows:

         The  Company  had no working  capital  loan  advances as of the balance
sheet date.

         As  referred  to in Note 2, the  credit  facility  is  guaranteed  by a
related  party.  The  guarantor  also  provides  guaranties  to creditors of the
Company  in order for the  Company  to  purchase  gas and  services  from  those
creditors.  As of the balance sheet date, the guarantor provided  guaranties for
open accounts payable aggregating $13,693,794. All accounts were paid in full by
the Company  subsequent to the balance sheet date.  The credit  facility is also
guaranteed by the shareholders of the Company, limited to the product of 150% of
the  shareholder's  ownership  times all  amounts  due  arising  from the credit
facility.

due monthly.  Letter of credit fees are charged on a percentage basis as issued.
In  addition,  the credit  facility  requires the Company to maintain a ratio of
total  liabilities  to tangible  net worth of 15.0 to 1.0 at such times when the
sum of the letters of credit issued and the outstanding  revolving loans is less
than  $4,000,000.  If the total is greater  than  $4,000,000,  the ratio  cannot

of gross  profits.  A tangible net worth  covenant is applied which requires the
Company to  maintain  $250,000 in net worth,  which  includes  the  subordinated
indebtedness  of $237,104 as described in Note 2, plus 35% of net profits  after
December 31, 1995. The maturity of the note is June 30, 1997.


NOTE 4:  FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK

         The Company  has entered  into a certain  master  commodity  price swap
agreement  with a  financial  counterpart  to  manage  all of  the  market  risk
associated  with  fluctuations  in the prices of natural  gas  commitments  to a
certain specific customer for a certain time period. The Company entered into an
arrangement  with this  customer to supply gas at a certain  price for a defined
period of time. The commodity swap agreement was put in place to offset any risk
associated with fluctuating  prices.  The swap agreement requires the Company to
make payments to (or receive payments from) the financial counterpart based upon
the  differential  between a fixed and a variable  price,  as  specified  by the
contract. The Company accounts for these transactions as hedging activities and,
accordingly,  gains and losses are  included  in income for the term of the swap
transaction.

         The Company has no open or uncovered hedging activities that expose the
Company to market risk.


NOTE 5:  CONTINGENCIES

         As of December 31, 1996, The Company has an outstanding receivable from
a customer  that is in excess of $350,000  which  arose in the normal  course of
business  during the early part of 1996. The receivable is subject to a possible
accounts payable offset of  approximately  $140,000;  thereby,  reflecting a net
receivable in excess of $200,000.  A dispute has arisen  between the parties and
currently there are lawsuits and counter suits  regarding  payment of the amount
with the case set for trial in 1997. Consequently,  as of December 31, 1996, the
ultimate collectibility or non-collectibility is not determinable.

                   UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


         The following unaudited pro forma financial statements are derived from
the consolidated  financial  statements of the Company, the financial statements
of  Natural  Gas  Transmission  Services,  Inc.  (NGTS) and  certain  historical
financial data in respect of various assets  acquired by the Company in 1996 and
1997. The pro forma  adjustments  set forth on the attached  unaudited pro forma
financial  statements  reflect the  acquisition of NGTS in December 1997 and the
following transactions that occurred earlier in 1997 or 1996:

(1) The Panoma Acquisition completed in June 1996;

(2) The  conversion  or  redemption  of the  Company's  Series  B and  Series  C
    Preferred Stock in 1996;
(3) The issuance of the TCW Preferred Stock in December 1996;
(4) The McLean Plant  Acquisition  in January 1997;
(5) The Permian Basin Acquisition completed in April 1997 (including the
    incurrence of  indebtedness under the Company's current Credit Facility (the
    "Credit Facility") and the Company's previously  existing term loan facility
    (the"Term Loan Facility") to finance the Permian Basin Acquisition and repay
    the indebtedness under the Company's previous credit facility (the "Previous
    Credit  Facility")); 
(6) The debt offering completed in May 1997 (the "Debt Offering") and the
    application of the net proceeds  therefrom;
(7) The  6,500,000  share  common  stock  offering completed in November  1997
    and the exercise of 896,256 warrants, resulting in approximately $41 million
    in cash proceeds.

         The equity offering,  warrant exercise and the acquisition of NGTS, all
of which  occurred in the final  quarter of 1997 are  reflected on the September
30, 1997 unaudited pro forma balance sheet as if the  transactions  had occurred
on September 30, 1997. The  transactions  that occurred in 1997 are reflected in
the  unaudited  pro forma  statement  of  operations  for the nine months  ended
September  30,  1997 as if they had  occurred  on January  1,  1997,  and on the
unaudited pro forma statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1996
as if they had occurred in January 1, 1996.  The  transactions  that occurred in
1996 and in January 1997 are reflected in the unaudited  statement of operations
for the year ended December 31, 1996 as if they had occurred on January 1, 1996.

         The  unaudited  pro  forma  financial  statements  should  be  read  in
conjunction  with  the  notes  thereto  and  with  the  consolidated   financial
statements of the Company and NGTS and the notes thereto.

         The unaudited pro forma financial  statements are not indicative of the
financial  position or results of operations of the Company which would actually
have  occurred if the  transactions  described  above had  occurred at the dates
presented or which may be obtained in the future.  In addition,  future  results
may vary  significantly  from the results  reflected in such  statements  due to
normal oil and gas production declines,  changes in prices paid for oil and gas,
future acquisitions, drilling activity and other factors.

(8)      To adjust  interest  expense to reflect the  repayment of the Term Loan
         Facility  and  repayment  of $75,500 of  indebtedness  under the Credit
         Facility with the net proceeds of the Debt Offering.  The interest rate
         on the Debt Offering Notes is 10.0%.  After  repayment of the Term Loan
         Facility,  using the net  proceeds  of the Debt  Offering,  the  Credit
         Facility  will bear  interest on an assumed  interest  rate of 7.6% per
         annum.  The $4,500 of estimated debt issuance costs are amortized using
         the effective yield method over the life of the Notes.  This adjustment
         excludes an  extraordinary  charge to expense of $1,800  debt  issuance
         costs  associated  with  repayment  of  the  Term  Loan  Facility.  The
         components of the interest expense adjustment are as follows:

(9)      To adjust  interest  expense to reflect (a) repayment of $41,000 of the
         Credit  Facility  with the proceeds of the equity  offering and warrant
         exercise,  (b) the incurrence of $2,350 of additional  borrowing  under
         the Credit  Facility  to  partially  finance  the  purchase  of the 30%
         interest in NGTS and (c) $2,000 of convertible  promissory notes to the
         sellers of the 30% interest in NGTS.  The loan from the sellers and the
         Credit  Facility  are  assumed  to have 9.0% and 7.6%  interest  rates,
         respectively. The components of this interest expense adjustment are as
         follows:

(10)     To record  the  effect of the pro forma  adjustments  on  deferred  and
         current  federal and state  income  taxes at an assumed tax rate of 38%
         after  consideration  of  available  net  operating  losses  and  other
         carryforwards.

(11)     To record the operating  revenues and oil and gas  production  expenses
         and gas gathering  and  marketing  expenses for the first six months of
         1996 for the Panoma  Properties  that were acquired  effective  July 1,
         1996 as if the Panoma Acquisition had occurred on January 1, 1996.

(12)     To record operating  revenues and gas gathering and marketing  expenses
         related to the  Company's  50% interest in the McLean Gas Plant,  which
         was acquired for $2,500 in January  1997,  for the year ended  December
         31,  1996 as if the  McLean Gas Plant had been  acquired  on January 1,
         1996. The Company will receive 100% of the net profits generated by the
         facility until the $2,500  purchase price is recovered,  after which it
         will receive 50% of the net profits. If the Company had received 50% of
         the net profits  generated by the McLean Gas Plant during the pro forma
         period presented, its gross margin would have been reduced by $1,403.

(13)     To record the pro forma  depletion  adjustment of $1,203 to reflect the
         Company's  depletion  expense  as if the  Panoma  Properties  that were

         and $167 to record one year of  depreciation  expense on the McLean Gas
         Plant  (depreciable  life is 15 years) as if the  McLean  Gas Plant had

(14)     To record  interest as if the McLean Plant  Acquisition  and the Panoma
         Acquisition  had occurred on January 1, 1996 as set forth below.  These
         acquisitions  were  assumed  to be  financed  by  the  Previous  Credit
         Facility with an average interest rate during 1996 of 7.625%.
