               REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
               --------------------------------------------------



Board of Directors
Handi-Pac, Inc.
  d/b/a Steven Manufacturing


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Handi-Pac, Inc. as of
December 31, 1996 and 1995 and the related statements of operations,
stockholder's equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years ended December
31, 1996, 1995 and 1994.  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 audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements referred
to above 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
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above, present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of Handi-Pac, Inc. as of
December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company
will continue as a going concern.  As shown in the financial statements, the
Company has a net deficiency in working capital of $350,911, had violated
certain loan covenants, has suffered net losses before extraordinary items of
$1,494,173, $744,594 and $2,132,709 for the years ended 1996, 1995 and 1994,
respectively.  These factors, among others, as discussed in Note C to the
financial statements raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to
continue as a going concern.  Management's plans in regard to these matters
are also described in Note C.  The financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

      of the accompanying financial statements follows.

      1.  Inventories

      2.  Property, Plant and Equipment
          -----------------------------

      Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost.  Depreciation is
      provided for on the straight-line method based on the estimated useful
      lives of the assets for financial statement purposes and accelerated
      methods for income taxes.  The estimated service lives used in
      determining depreciation are:

      3.  Income Taxes
          ------------

      The accompanying financial statements do not include the future income
      tax benefits (deferred tax assets) attributable to net operating loss
      carryforwards and other tax attributes because they are subject to
      limitation in connection with the various changes in ownership and
      subject to elimination in conjunction with Internal Revenue Code
      provisions which exclude certain cancellation of debt income from
      taxation.  Any deferred tax assets not reduced as described would be
      fully reserved at December 31, 1996 in accordance with Statement of
      Financial Accounting Standards No. 109.

==============================================================================

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND OPERATIONS -
   (CONTINUED)

      4.  Use of Estimates
          ----------------

      The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
      accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
      and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
      liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
      date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
      and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ
      from those estimates.

      5.  Reclassification
          ----------------

      Certain amounts in the 1995 and 1994 financial statements have been
      reclassified to conform with the 1996 financial statement presentation.


NOTE B - SUBSEQUENT EVENT - SALE OF COMPANY STOCK

      On February 3, 1997 the sole owner of the Company sold his stock to a
      newly formed corporation, Steven Toy, Inc. (Steven), a wholly-owned
      subsidiary of EXX INC (EXX) for $50,000.  Effective with the sale,
      EXX's management took control of the Company and has provided the funds
      to allow the Company to remain in business.


NOTE C - CONTINUING OPERATIONS

      The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity
      with generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate
      continuation of the Company as a going concern.  However, the Company
      has sustained substantial losses from operations in recent years, and
      management anticipates that such losses will continue through 1997.

      Beginning in 1994 the Company became delinquent in payments to its
      vendors and the then former owner of the Company.  Due to operating
      losses and a lack of adequate cash flow in the business, the Company
      halted its required payments to the former owner of the Company in
      1994.  In addition, the former president halted payments under his
      personal obligation to the former owner.  In February, 1995, the former
      owner called the note from the former president and repossessed the
      stock collateralizing the personal note.  In connection with the
      repossession the former president forgave a note amounting to $172,067
      to the Company which has been accounted for as a contribution to
      capital.  In March, 1995, the former owner purchased the remaining
      stock from the other shareholders and became the sole shareholder of
      the Company.

                 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED

                     DECEMBER 31, 1996, 1995 AND 1994

==============================================================================

NOTE C - CONTINUING OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

      In the ensuing months, the Company worked out various payment terms
      with a significant number of its vendors.  During 1996 and 1995,
      Company purchases were predominantly on a cash on delivery basis, plus
      agreed to amounts on past-due balances.  The funds to make the past-due
      payments to the vendors were provided by working capital loans from the
      Company's owner.

      In view of the matters described in the preceding paragraphs,
      recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown
      in the accompanying balance sheet is dependent upon continued
      operations of the Company, which in turn is dependent upon the
      Company's ability to improve its operations and to continue to receive
      funding from its new owner or other sources.  The financial statements
      do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and
      classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification
      of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to
      continue in existence.

      EXX has taken certain steps to improve the operations of the Company,
      which include discontinuing sales of unprofitable products, reducing
      overhead, and seeking out a new management team.

      Litigation and Past Due Obligations
      -----------------------------------

      The Company has numerous claims outstanding, primarily involving
      past-due payments to various creditors.  The Company has recorded these
      liabilities and certain interest charges on the accompanying financial
      statements.  However, due to a lack of funds, the Company has fallen
      behind on certain agreed upon payment schedules.  The Company's ability
      to make these payments is dependent upon its ability to improve
      operations and obtain the necessary funds to operate the business.


NOTE D - U.S.A. HARTLAND

      In 1993, the Company purchased a line of business consisting of
      machinery, equipment, fixtures, and tooling to manufacture figurines of
      former professional baseball players.  The purchase included intangible
      property consisting of a trademark, technology, customer lists, and
      licensing agreements.  In 1994, due to lack of sufficient sales and
      profits associated with this line of business including the Hartland
      horse product line, all production was stopped.  At December 31, 1996
      and 1995, the Company has recorded $252,625 and $314,068, respectively,
      of tooling, machinery, and inventory, on the balance sheets as idle
      assets.  The new owners are presently evaluating their plans with
      regard to this entire product line.  A provision has been made to
      reduce the carrying value of these assets.

      On March 21, 1996, the Company settled a dispute with the former owner
      of the baseball figurine product line for $200,000.  The terms of the
      settlement require monthly payments of $2,000 for 12 months and $2,500
      per month until paid in full in 2003.  The present value of the
      settlement agreement amounting to $135,100 was charged to operations in
      1995 and accrued in the accompanying financial statements.  At December
      31, 1996 the net present value of the remaining obligation included on
      the accompanying balance sheet amounts to $129,020.

                     DECEMBER 31, 1996, 1995 AND 1994

==============================================================================

NOTE E - REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITIES

      During 1994 and 1995 the Company was obligated under a revolving credit
      facility agreement with a finance company which provided for borrowings
      up to a maximum aggregate amount of $1,500,000.  During 1995, interest
      was payable monthly at the rate of 6.5% above the prime rate on the
      outstanding balance, with additional fees charged for noncompliance
      with loan covenants.  At December 31, 1995 $311,661 was outstanding on
      this agreement.

      On March 15, 1996 the Company refinanced its accounts receivable credit
      facility with a local financial institution under substantially
      improved terms.  The new terms included loans based on 80% of eligible
      accounts receivable at 12% interest up to a maximum borrowing of
      $1,500,000.  The loan was personally guaranteed by the Company's owner.
      On March 26, 1997 the revolving credit facility was repaid, and the
      Company is presently operating without a line of credit.


NOTE F - DEBT RESTRUCTURING

      In contemplation of a potential sale of the stock of the Company, and
      due to its deteriorated financial condition, the owner forgave a
      substantial amount of secured and unsecured obligations owed to him and
      related trusts.  The restructuring resulted in an extraordinary gain of
      $4,440,686.  See Note A3 regarding the income tax effect.

      As a result of the restructuring, the debt was reduced to $350,000 and
      collateralized by a security interest in substantially all assets of
      the Company.  See Note G.

      On February 3, 1997 these notes were purchased by another wholly-owned
      subsidiary of EXX.  The notes bear interest at rates ranging from 7.5%
      to 1% above the prime rate.  Under the terms of the sale agreement
      described at Note B, the Company is prohibited from making principal or
      interest payments on these notes until other Company notes personally
      guaranteed by the seller of the Company are paid in full.


NOTE G - LONG-TERM DEBT TO SHAREHOLDER

      The Company owed the shareholder for amounts on his original sale of
      the Company in 1992 and on amounts advanced since reacquiring the
      Company in March, 1995.  In 1996 and 1995 the Company only accrued
      interest on the working capital advances.

NOTE I - FACILITY LEASE

      In 1994 the Company entered into a 23 year lease with the City of
      Hermann, including a five year extension, for its new facility.  The
      facility was built with City funds and flood grants that the City and
      the Company received from the United States Department of Commerce.

      The lease is accounted for as a capital lease as the ownership of the
      facility transfers to the Company at the end of the lease term.
      Accordingly, the facility and lease obligation were recorded at the
      present value of Company's obligation of $888,750.  Accumulated
      amortization as of December 31, 1996 and 1995 amounted to $107,391 and
      $62,953.  The facility cost approximately $2.25 million to construct.
      The Company has an option to purchase the facility at the net present
      value of the future minimum lease payments.  The lease has provisions
      restricting the transferability and usage of the facility.

NOTE J - MAJOR CUSTOMERS AND VENDORS

      In 1996, 1995 and 1994, the Company sold a substantial portion of its
      product to two national retail chains.  Sales to these two customers in
      1996, 1995 and 1994 aggregated approximately $4,532,000, $6,408,000 and
      $7,806,000, or 76%, 80% and 64%, respectively.

      At December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, amounts due from these customers
      were approximately $342,316, $451,000  and $907,000, respectively.

      The Company buys a large portion of its raw materials from plastic
      injection manufacturers who contract to supply parts using molds owned
      by the Company.  In 1996, 1995 and 1994, $792,000, $1,676,000 and
      $3,458,000 was purchased from a single supplier.  The Company's supply
      of these parts is subject to the good working condition of its molds as
      well as the continued operations of its plastic parts suppliers.


NOTE K - DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLAN

      The Company sponsors a defined contribution Section 401(k)
      profit-sharing plan that covers all employees over the age of 21 that
      have worked for the Company for at least one year.  Company contributions
      are based on 50% of the first 4% of employee contributions.  For 1996,
      1995 and 1994, the Company's contribution was $10,000, $13,600 and
      $26,500, respectively.  In February 1997, the Company terminated the
      plan.

                    INTRODUCTION TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA
                        COMBINED STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS



The following unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations reflects
the combination of the historical audited consolidated statement of
operations of EXX for the year ended December 31, 1996 and the historical
audited statement of operations of Handi-Pac for the year ended December 31,
1996, adjusted to reflect the assumption that EXX's acquisition of Handi-Pac
on February 3, 1997 had been consummated at the beginning of the year ended
December 31, 1996 and to reflect the other assumptions described in the
accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma combined statement of
operations.

The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations should be read in
conjunction with the related audited historical consolidated financial
statements of EXX previously filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission and the historical financial statements of Handi-Pac, and the
unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet included elsewhere herein.

The unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations is not necessarily
indicative of the consolidated results of operations of EXX as they may be in
the future or as they might have been had the acquisition been consummated at
the beginning of the year.
