                     CHIEFTAIN INTERNATIONAL FUNDING CORP.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.       In the opinion of Chieftain International Funding Corp. ("Funding
         Corp."), the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all
         adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments)
         necessary to present fairly the financial position as at September 30,
         1996 and December 31, 1995 and the results of operations and changes
         in financial position for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and
         1995.

         The results of operations and changes in financial position for the
         nine month period ended September 30, 1996 are not necessarily
         indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

2.       Income taxes:

         Funding Corp. follows the tax allocation method of accounting for the
         tax effect of all timing differences between taxable income and
         accounting income.

         Funding Corp. and its parent file their corporate income tax return on
         a consolidated basis.  As a result, the current taxes payable will be
         offset by utilizing the parent company's operating loss.

         The tax benefit relating to loss utilization has been added to the
         amount owing to the parent company.

        MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
                             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Chieftain International Funding Corp., a special purpose subsidiary of
Chieftain International (U.S.) Inc., was formed in 1992 for the primary purpose
of financing the U.S. business operations of its parent.

Analysis of Operating Results - Nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995

Funding Corp.'s income is derived from dividends on preferred shares and
interest on short-term notes, all of which are issued by its parent company,
Chieftain International (U.S.) Inc.

Dividends received on 3,140,000 redeemable Class B preferred shares amounted to
$4,268,438 for each of the first nine month periods of 1996 and 1995.

Interest earned on short-term notes for the first nine months of 1996 was
$97,314, a 36% increase from the amount earned in the comparable 1995 period.
Such increase resulted from a 9% decrease in average investment yield and a 48%
increase in the average amount invested compared to the 1995 first nine months.
Future dividend income is expected to remain constant while interest income
should increase, subject to rate fluctuations, reflecting increases in
short-term investment amounts.

Income taxes are calculated on interest income less general and administrative
costs.  Dividends received from the parent are tax exempt.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

Funding Corp. is dependent upon the dividend income from its investment in
preferred shares of its parent company to provide funds for payment of
dividends on its publicly-held preferred shares.

Funds provided from operations increased to $785,415 for the first nine months
of 1996 compared with $366,643 for the 1995 period.  Funds not required for
current working capital purposes were invested in short-term notes issued and
payable by the parent company.

Cash balances at September 30, 1996 and 1995 were $253,213 and $52,037,
respectively.
