    SMC Development, L. P. was formed on January 5, 1996, to acquire minority
non-operated working interests in nineteen oil and gas properties and to drill

consisted of proved producing and proved undeveloped oil and gas properties,
with most of the value related to the proved undeveloped properties that were

Note       1: On August 30, 1996 Southern Mineral Corporation (Southern
           Mineral) acquired the limited partnership interest in SMC
           Development, L. P. for $3,000,000. Southern Mineral previously owned
           a 7% general partnership interest in the partnership. The
           partnership's assets consisted of proved producing and proved
           undeveloped oil and gas properties, with most of the value related
           to proved undeveloped properties and wells drilled in 1996, but not
           yet producing.

           The pro forma balance sheet presents the acquisition of the SMC
           Development, L. P. Limited partnership interest as if it had
           occurred at June 30, 1996, while the pro forma statement of
           operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 1995 and
           December 31, 1996, and for the six months ended June 30, 1996
           present the transaction as if it had occurred at January 1, 1995.

           These statements should be read in conjunction with the separate
           financial statements and notes thereto of Southern Mineral's
           previously filed statements. The pro forma statement of operations
           is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations of the
           Company as it may be in the future or as if it might have been had
           the acquisition been effective at January 1, 1995.

           Historical amounts for the 1995 statement of operations were
           obtained from Diasu Oil & Gas Co., Inc., the owners of the
           properties prior to their purchase by SMC Development, L. P. The
           amounts for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and for the twelve
           months ended December 31, 1996 are from the partnership records.

Note 2:    Reflects purchase of the limited partnership interest. Financing
           was obtained through additional long-term debt.

Note 3:    Reflects adjustment of the Partnership's historical cost basis in
           assets to fair value.

Note 4:    Reflects additional interest expense as a result of debt financing 
           of the acquisition. The interest rate charged under the Company's
           debt financing was, at the Company's option, the bank's prime rate,
           floating or LIBOR rate plus two and one half percent.

Note 5:    Reflects depreciation, depletion and amortization, including amount
           related to the increase in oil and gas property bases for the Stone
           & Webster and the Diverse transactions. The 1996 and 1995
           depreciation, depletion and amortization (DD&A) for the SMC
           Development L. P. (Partnership) acquisition is based on the
           carrying value of the producing properties by the partnership.
           Partnership carrying value of proved producing properties is the
           same as Southern Mineral's carrying value after the acquisition, as
           the Partnership's book value of producing properties approximated
           their fair value and excess purchase price paid over the historical
           basis of oil and gas properties was allocated to proved non-
           producing properties. Accordingly, their is no pro forma adjustment
           to the historical 1996 DD&A amount. Since the partnership did not
           acquire the properties until January 1996 and no historical DD&A
           amounts exist for 1995, the entire DD&A 1995 amount has been shown
           as a pro forma adjustment for that year. 8

Note 6:    Reflects reduction in income tax expense caused by reduction in
           pro forma earnings, computed using statement of Financial Accounting
           Standards No. 109. Also includes taxes on SMC Development L.P.
           income included in the pro forma for which no historical taxes has
           been recorded due to its partnership status.

Note 7:    To eliminate amortization of goodwill of purchased entities.

Note 8:    To eliminate dividend income from subsidiary.

Note 9:    Diverse Production Company data is for the first quarter of 1995; 
           the remaining nine months of 1995 is actual DPC results consolidated
           with Southern Mineral Corporation.
