Item 1. Description of Registrant's Securities to be Registered.
This registration statement relates to the registration with the
Securities and Exchange Commission of shares of Common Stock, par value
$0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), of Remington Oil and Gas
Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Registrant"). The Common
Stock is the subject of a registration statement filed on Form S-4
which was originally filed with the Commission on August 14, 1998 and
declared effective by the Commission on November 27, 1998 (the
"Registration Statement"). The Common Stock is being issued in exchange
for the current common stock of the Registrant which consists of two
classes (the "Transaction"). The Transaction is subject to shareholder
approval at a meeting currently scheduled for December 23, 1998 (the

Registrant as well as certain By-Law amendments. If the Transaction is
not approved by the stockholders, neither the exchange of shares of
Common Stock for the Registrant's existing common stock nor the
certificate restatement or by-law amendments will take place. The
