PART I
Item 1. BUSINESS
Unless the context otherwise requires, the term "Company" as used
herein refers to the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Worldwide
PetroMoly Corporation.
BUSINESS--GENERAL
The Company is engaged in the business of manufacturing, marketing and
distributing a line of molybdenum fortified lubricant products called PetroMoly
(tm), which uses the Company's proprietary technology called MOLYTECH (tm) to
blend an extended drain, high performance engine oil designed to enhance and
maintain all types of engines at their peak levels. The Company has formulated
products for use in Indy style racing cars, commercial fleets and retail
consumer use. One of the Company's principal promotional efforts is its INDY
style racing car sponsorship of racecar drivers Robby Unser and Jacques Lazier
who drive the PetroMoly race car, which uses the racing formulation of PetroMoly
with molytech.
1
<PAGE>
MARKETING--GENERAL
The Company's immediate focus is on planning for a regional retail
campaign, while adding new racing, industrial and commercial customers to its
customer base. An infomercial is planned to air nationwide, which will exhibit
the Company's technology by featuring an oil additive that utilizes molytech,
the same proprietary formulation used in all of the Company's lubrication
products.
The industrial and commercial sales process takes a minimum of three to six
months because such customers typically want to test the Company's products for
90 days before making any decisions. Some of the Company's current customers are
Continental Airlines, Enron, American Equipment, a division of Fluor Daniels,
American Energy, Mooney Oil, the City of Coral Springs, Bennett Auto Supply, The
Oil Connection Lube Centers and Wichita Tillman and Jackson Railroad.
Based on various tests which have been conducted, the Company believes that
its product line offers several competitive advantages over other products.
These benefits include an increase in the time between oil changes, an increase
in fuel economy, longer engine life, improved engine performance, and an
ability to substantially reduce harmful exhaust emissions, engine wear and
friction.
Currently nearly all of the Company's personnel are involved in marketing
the Company's products. The target markets are racing cars, industrial,
commercial user markets, and consumer markets for passenger cars and light
trucks. The Company also has begun to approach the direct retail markets
through the Company's sales personnel. The Company is looking for premium shelf
space in automobile parts retail chains and lube center chains. To help promote
brand awareness, the Company is actively seeking to selling PetroMoly (tm) Oil
Treatment using various mediums including television, radio and print
advertisements, and is presently seeking marketing alliances for this purpose.
Marketing--Internet and E-Commerce
The Company's web site is www.petromoly.com. The U.S. Bureau of Statistics
has forecasted that the average U.S. consumer who owns a computer will make 20%
of their purchases on-line by the year 2002, and that usage is expected to grow
with each successive year.
The Company has plans to continuously stay current in the field of e-commerce.
The Company's Internet activities include the revamping of the Company's
Internet web site, and making it easier and more attractive for on-line
customers to purchase products. Existing industrial customers will be able to
re-order products on line, and can issue purchase orders as well as check on
their individual account status. The site is scheduled to be a secured site,
and will be state of the art on technology.

PATENTS, TRADEMARKS AND LICENSES
During November, 1994, the Company filed an application with the United
States Patent and Trademark Office for a patent on PetroMoly. During December
1995, the Company received a Notice of Allowability indicating that a patent
would be granted for PetroMoly provided that certain formalities are met. The
Company has filed a continuance for another three years to protect the
disclosure in the patent application from the public. The Company presently has
plans to re-file an application if Management determines that disclosing the
Company's intellectual property in the form of a patent is in the best interest
of the Shareholders. The Company also holds the rights to the registered
trademark "PetroMoly (tm)" and "Molytech (tm)."
COMPETITION
Management believes that there is no other fully formulated motor oil like
PetroMoly on the market. The major competitive products are the synthetic oils;
however, the Company believes their additional expense for synthetics is often
not justified by actual benefits with out Molytech in their formulations. In
many industrial applications there are also operational limitations to the
synthetic oils. Conventional motor oils differ according to their additive
packages. Most general use oils are similar in their makeup. As a result,
there is heavy competition in the consumer oils market due to the similarity of
the products. Pennzoil has been the market share leader in passenger car motor
oils for 13 years. It introduced its first synthetic motor oil, Performax
5W-50, in late 1992. Pennzoil has a nationwide distribution system and they
3
<PAGE>
continue to expand to the international market. The Quaker State Corporation is
another major competitor in the passenger car motor oil industry with
distribution and products very similar to Pennzoil. The industrial market has
substantially less competition due to the unique operational requirements of
many industrial applications. In these applications the customers are less
sensitive to the purchase price of the product and base their purchasing
decisions on extensive real-life testing to determine operational advantages and
cost savings from prospective products. This process is more time consuming
than traditional consumer sales due to its one-on-one sales requirements. The
Company intends to compete both in the industrial and consumer motor oil markets
by offering a product which the Company believes provides significant benefits
over competing products. The major focus in the past has been in the commercial
and industrial areas, and now the Company is ready for a significant retail
exposure.
MANUFACTURING
Fully formulated PetroMoly is not a synthetic (except for its racing
formulations), has no exotic ingredients, and is relatively inexpensive to
produce. The secret to PetroMoly's success is the proprietary blending process
which combines common components with high-grade base oil stock. To provide
rapid response to market needs without significant capital investment, the
Company has chosen to use existing contract blending companies to produce the
Company's products. The primary blending facility at this point is Mega
Lubricants, Inc., located in Houston, Texas. The Company also uses Forsythe
Lubrication Association, Ltd. in Canada as a blender. Mega Lubricants is
producing all of the Company's packaged goods (i.e. quarts and gallons) for the
passenger car and light truck markets. Forsythe is capable of producing
railroad products, as well as 15W-40 and 10W-30. LSC in California and South
Coast Terminals in Texas are also under contract for production and will expand
as the market grows. With these producers, the Company is able to produce and
ship products economically to any locality in the United States or Canada.
Additional manufacturers will be selected as necessary.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
The Company spent approximately $109,000 in 2000 and $39,000 in 1999 on
research and development , in connection with methods of formulation and
production of its products.
EMPLOYEES
The Company presently has 11 employees, of which 4 are in management
positions, including corporate and administrative operations, and 7 are engaged
in sales.

of the Company's revenues were received from 2 customers.
Item 2. PROPERTIES
The Company maintains its corporate offices at 1300 Post Oak Boulevard,
Houston, Texas 77056. The Company rents approximately 932 square feet at this
location and pays approximately $1,200 per month for rent pursuant to a lease,

<PAGE>
The Company is including the following cautionary statement in this Form
10-KSB to make applicable and take advantage of the safe harbor provision of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 for any forward-looking
statements made by, or on behalf of, the Company. Forward-looking statements
include statements concerning plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future
events or performance and underlying assumptions and other statements which are
other than statements of historical facts. Certain statements in this Form
10-KSB are forward-looking statements. Words such as "expects", "anticipates",
"estimates" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking
statements. Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could
cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Such risks and
uncertainties are set forth below. The Company's expectations, beliefs and
projections are expressed in good faith and are believed by the Company to have
a reasonable basis, including without limitation, management's examination of
historical operating trends, data contained in the Company's records and other
data available from third parties, but there can be no assurance that
management's expectation, beliefs or projections will result, be achieved, or be
accomplished. In addition to other factors and matters discussed elsewhere
herein, the following are important factors that, in the view of the Company,
could cause material adverse affects on the Company's financial condition and
results of operations: market acceptance and demand for the Company's products,
competitive factors, the ability of the Company to to obtain acceptable forms
and amounts of financing. The Company has no obligation to update or revise
these forward-looking statements to reflect the occurrence of future events or
circumstances.
Going Concern Qualification by the Company's Independent Auditor
The Company's independent auditor has included a going concern
qualification in the auditor's report. See, Financial Statements. The Company
incurred net operating losses for the two years ending June 30, 2000 and 1999.
Operating expenses and other financial obligations have been met, primarily, by
the sale of Company stock. There is no assurance that the Company will be able
to continue to sell stock to fund operations. These factors create substantial
doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS -GENERAL
---------------------------------
In July 1996, the Company's operating subsidiary, Worldwide PetroMoly
Corporation, was acquired through a reverse acquisition by Ogden McDonald &
Company (former symbol-OGDM) preceded by approximately $4,000,000 of investment
capital to provide the Company adequate funding to build a foundation for growth
and industrial brand awareness of its new lubricating technology. Since the
acquisition of Worldwide PetroMoly Corporation, now a subsidiary, by the Company
(name changed to Worldwide PetroMoly Inc. Symbol-MOLY), the Company's structure
changed significantly to reflect the activities of its subsidiary. In its
fourth year of operation, the Company has streamlined various aspects of the
sales force and the Company's infrastructure. These activities included scaling
down the salaried sales personnel. The focus has been on expanding and
improving the product lines and developing lines of distribution to enhance
sales volume, spending the appropriate and necessary amount of capital for
product
8
<PAGE>
certification and quality control, and initiating new concepts that further
display the Company's technology and product lines in new markets as well as
strengthen existing markets. The two areas of primary focus has remained
shifted from the commercial and industrial market, to the retail/passenger car
market. Management's strategy to gain retail acceptance and credibility began
by designing a specially formulated moly racing-oil designed for INDY style
motors, which was tested last year, saw a successful debut in the 1999 Indy
Racing League (IRL) including an eight place finish at the Indianapolis 500
driven by veteran driver Robby Unser, and a second place finish at the league's
Atlanta race. The Company has since sponsored other teams and drivers to futher
demonstrate the effectiveness of its technology-- Also product development
successfully focused on applying the proprietary technology to produce new
products such as high performance gear oil treatment and straight- track oil for
competition drag racing engines. The company also continued its development of
cutting oils for threading, armament oil to private label, a two cycle engine
oil additive for motorcycles and outboard motors, a moly-grease, an emissions
reducing fuel treatment, and a very effective oil additive called PetroMoly Oil
Treatment designed for automobiles and light trucks.
Other activities include: the redesigning and upgrading of the corporate
web site, product brochures, product labels and packaging; bottle mold
development for the Company's new products, the purchasing of additional
operational equipment, printing investor brochures along with related marketing
materials. The Company also invested in lab equipment for the purpose of
further testing its oil treatment to document stringent scientific tests
required by the Federal Trade Commission to make claims on engine enhancements,
emissions reduction, and fuel economy improvement. The Company intends to use
the test results derived to promote this additive product on a highly creative
product awareness campaign in an "long form" and "short form" television
advertisement, that is designed to support the retail distribution of the
Company's products and/or organically grow the sales and distribution of its
products through e-commerce or fulfillment through direct response.
The Company has continued field testing and objective lab testing of its
fully formulated engine oil, while several major multinational customers
continue evaluation tests of the PetroMoly products on their complex high-end
machinery and fleet vehicles. These tests have been complex and time consuming,
and the results have established the effectiveness of the PetroMoly products.
Commercial sales concentration was targeting various industrial leaders and
massive fleet operators. For these larger customers there are usually test
periods that the PetroMoly products are subjected to which can last anywhere
from three months to a year, depending on each market and end-user.
Co-generation, bus and gas compressor engines, for example, are very expensive
and complex machinery, requiring constant monitoring. Therefore, the addition
of PetroMoly's new lubrication technology to an entire line or fleet is gradual.
The Company has continued to receive inquiries from motor vehicle fleet
operators as a result of the publicity associated with the test results that
PetroMoly achieved from subjecting its product to various independent US
Environmental Protection Agency sanctioned lab tests that documented and
certified the superior results of PetroMoly engine oil. Although these tests
are costly as well as time consuming, management believes they add to the
Company and further its ability to market the Company's technology. The
Environmental Protection Agency listed PetroMoly in the Federal register
February 1999 for achieving improvements in both fuel economy and emissions
reduction.
9
<PAGE>
Also the Company's web site, www.petromoly.com, has become a more popular
place for purchasing the Company's automotive products over this past year.
YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2000, COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 1999
Total net sales for the year ended June 30, 1999 were $519,682 as compared
to $825,000 for the year ended June 30, 2000, a 58% increase. The reason for the
increase is Management's decision to expand to retail markets versus an earlier
strategy to concentrate the sales resources on procuring a few large industrial
customers that are known industry leaders. Sales discounts, selective sampling
of products, together with long attentive testing periods were however continued
to be practiced to educate the strategic customers about the new lubricant
technology. The Company continued to benefit from publicity from its association
with Continental Airlines, and this has led to discussions and testing with
other industry related companies. The Company also continued to received a
considerable amount of attention from the IRL racing sponsorship, and racing
results of race cars using PetroMoly products. Management believes that the next
fiscal year will prove that the racing affiliation and marketing strategy will
reward the Company with increased revenues, PetroMoly product awareness and
fiscal commitments.
Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales remained fairly constant, with a
slight increase from 63% for the year ended June 30, 1999, to 64.7% for the year
ended June 30, 2000. The Company is continuing to interview several
strategically located blending facilities throughout North America, South
America and Europe. Once these blending agreements are in place, proximity will
dictate lower freight cost thus reducing the cost of goods. A material drop in
costs is anticipated due to the economies of scale with increased volume
production runs. The demand associated with the caliber of customers that the
Company has been targeting, as well as
10
<PAGE>
the projected increase in retail demand from the anticipated brand awareness
infomercial campaign could qualify the Company for a decrease in the cost of
production runs with increased purchasing commitments.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were also similar to the
previous year as it was $3,334,021 for the year ended June 30, 2000, from
$3,300,609 for the year ended June 30, 1999. The amounts in expenses were in
large part comprised of non-cash transactional payments in the form of shares
and options granted as compensation to non-employees totaling approximately
$1,020,508 as compared to $2,780,000 for fiscal 1999.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES.
At June 30, 2000, the Company had positive working capital in the amount of
$399,921 compared to June 30, 1999, working capital was in the amount of
$1,446,745 including $936,340 in prepaid expense which included the Indy race
car sponsorship.
Operating activities for the year ended June 30, 2000 used cash of
$1,284,515 compared to $950,395 for the year ended June 30, 1999. This use of
cash was principally the result of the Company's expenses for operations and new
marketing costs associated with the retail and awareness campaign
Net cash provided from financing activities in 2000 was $860,742, of which
$700,742 came from advances by stockholder, Mr. Gertner. Net cash provided
from financing activities in 1999 was $1,142,562.
As of June 30, 2000, the Company had no material commitments for capital
expenditures.
At June 30, 2000, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance
against all deferred tax assets because it could not determine whether it was
more likely or not that the deferred tax asset would be utilized.
For the years ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, the Company incurred net losses
totaling $3,030,597 and $2,942,441 respectively. In the event that the Company
is unable to generate sufficient revenues from operations, or is unable to
11
<PAGE>
obtain additional financing, it may be unable to continue to develop and support
its present cost levels and continue as a going concern. The Company is
presently seeking to raise additional equity through the sale of its common
stock for financing to develop a professionally administered brand awareness
advertising campaign and to expand its marketing efforts in order to generate
additional revenues. No assurance can be given that the Company will be
successful in achieving its revenue growth strategy; or that it will obtain
financing at terms that are acceptable to the Company.
OUTLOOK
The year ended June 30, 2000 was a year of more development for the Company
as its strategic focus has expanded to the development of a retail approach that
encompasses a brand and product awareness campaign in strategic markets. This
approach is expected to increase sales volume and promote relationships with
automotive after-market chains while enhancing our presence with the leaders in
the industrial markets, which are end users, or already have established lines
of distribution and marketing capital. The brand awareness began with the INDY
race car/Robby Unser sponsorship and it has been very well received by the
various automotive retail chains that the Company wants to carry its PetroMoly
Products. The media campaign, which began in this second calendar quarter of
2001, will roll out in strategic regions where the markets have been proven to
respond to this product category using direct marketing, 30 minute (long form)
and 2 minute (short form) advertisements.
Lastly, the Company's trademarked name "molytech", that embodies the
Company's proprietary technology of which the US patent office had issued a
"letter of acceptability" is being marketed and promoted as the common element
used in all of the Company's lubrication products. Management is continuing to
actively pursue licensing agreements with major oil companies to utilize
molytech in their existing lines, where the Company would receive royalty
income with pre-negotiated minimum volumes.
With the progressing sales relationships maturing and the new product lines
being marketed, the Company expects operating margins and revenues to improve
during fiscal 2001.

ITEM 12. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS ACQUISITION OF
WORLDWIDE PETROMOLY CORPORATION
On July 22, 1996, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the
outstanding common stock of Worldwide PetroMoly Corporation in exchange for
14,507,500 shares of the Company's Common Stock (approximately 90.6% of the
shares now outstanding). The stock issuances were made pursuant to the
Agreement ("Agreement") between the Company and Worldwide PetroMoly Corporation.
The terms of the Agreement were the result of negotiations between the
management of the Company and Worldwide PetroMoly Corporation. However, the
Board of Directors did not obtain any independent "fairness" opinion or other
evaluation regarding the terms of the Agreement, due to the cost of obtaining
such opinions or evaluations. A total of 12,500,000 of the shares issued in
connection with the acquisition of Worldwide PetroMoly Corporation were issued
to PetroMoly Capital Partners, which is a Texas general partnership. Gilbert
Gertner is a general partner and owns 90% of the partnership. PetroMoly
Capital Partners subsequently distributed its shares of the Company to its
general partners.
OTHER TRANSACTIONS
In December, 1996 the Company loaned Citadel Computer Systems
Incorporated ("Citadel"), a company of which Mr. Gertner is a director, $500,000
pursuant to a short term promissory note which bore interest at the rate of 10%
per annum and was due in January, 1997 (the "Citadel Note"). The Citadel Note
was secured by 733,000 shares of common stock of Citadel. As part of the loan
transaction, the Company received warrants to purchase 150,000 shares of common
stock of Citadel at an exercise price of $.59 per share. In February 1997,
19
<PAGE>
Citadel paid the Company $250,000 as a principal reduction payment. As of June
30, 1997, the outstanding balance on the Citadel Note, which was in default, was
$267,289.
In partial consideration for not foreclosing on the Citadel Note, on
June 30, 1997, Commercial Capital Trading Corporation ("Commercial Capital"),
a company in which Mr. Gertner is a stockholder, agreed to enter into a new
promissory note with the Company in the amount of the then outstanding
obligation of Citadel (the "Commercial Capital Note"). The agreement by
Commercial Capital to execute this new note and to assume the obligations of
Citadel to the Company was part of a transaction between Citadel and
Commercial Capital, in which the Company was not a party. The Commercial
Capital Note provided for the payment to the Company of $5,000 per month
and bore interest at the rate of 10% per annum. The Commercial Capital Note
was secured by the accounts receivable of Commercial Capital. In October, 1997,
the Company and Commercial Capital agreed to restructure and modify the
Commercial Capital Note, which had a then outstanding balance of $204,000
to provide for an increase in the monthly installment payments to the
Company of the greater of (i) $10,000 per month or (ii) 15% of the proceeds
received from the collection of accounts receivable up to $100,000 and 50% of
the collection of any accounts receivable thereafter, for 12 months, with a
final payment to the Company of the remaining outstanding principal and
interest, if any, due in the 13th month. The Commercial Capital Note was
secured by the accounts receivable of Commercial Capital and the personnel
guarantee of Mr. Gertner and another stockholder of Commercial Capital.
As of June, 1998, the Commercial Capital Note was paid off in full.
From time to time, the Company's principal stockholder, Gilbert Gertner,
has made unsecured, non-interest-bearing advances of working capital funds to
the Company. The outstanding balance of the advances as of June 30, 2000 and
June 30, 1999 were $934,378 and $233,635 respectively. Mr. Gertner has agreed
to defer repayment of these advances until excess cash flow of the Company
allows the repayment.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To the Board of Directors of
Worldwide Petromoly, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Worldwide
Petromoly, Inc. as of June 30, 2000 and 1999, and the related consolidated
statements of operations, stockholders' equity 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 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 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of
Worldwide PetroMoly, Inc. at June 30, 2000 and 1999, and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the
financial statements, the Company's significant operating losses raise
substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the
outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2000 AND 1999
1. FINANCIAL CONDITION AND GOING CONCERN
For each of the years ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, the Company incurred
net losses totaling $3,030,597 and $2,942,441, respectively, and at June
30, 2000 had a stockholders' deficit of $534,457. These losses contributed
to net cash used in operating activities of $1,284,515 and $950,395 for
each of the years ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. As a result
of these recurring losses and operating cash flow deficits, the Company
will require additional working capital to develop and support its customer
base, technologies and business until the Company either: (1) achieves a
level of revenues adequate to generate sufficient cash flows from
operations; or (2) receives additional financing necessary to support the
Company's working capital requirements. These conditions raise substantial
doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
Currently, the Company's focus has been on developing its customer base by
creating brand awareness of its lubrication technology through increasing
its marketing efforts and quality control. The Company's marketing efforts
have included the recruiting and training of a sales force and advertising
and promotion. Quality control developments have included product testing
and certification and research and development with a focus toward
improving and expanding its product lines. Management's plans include
raising the necessary capital to continue this revenue growth strategy.
There are no assurances, however, that the Company can: (1) raise the
necessary capital to enable it to continue the execution of its revenue
growth strategy; or (2) generate sufficient revenue growth and improvements
in operating margins to meet its working capital requirements if such
capital is obtained. To the extent that funds generated from operations are
insufficient, the Company will have to raise additional working capital. No
assurance can be given that additional financing will be available, or if
available, will be on terms acceptable to the Company. If adequate working
capital is not available the Company may be required to curtail its
operations.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any
adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset
carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might
be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

incorporated in the state of Texas on April 1, 1993, and prior to the
reverse merger, was engaged in the same line of business as the Company. In
connection with the reverse merger, Ogden McDonald acquired all of the
outstanding common stock of WPC and subsequently changed its name to
Worldwide Petromoly, Inc. WPC is now a wholly owned subsidiary of the
Company.
The Company contracts with independent parties for the blending of its
lubricant products.

costs were $109,095 and $39,000, respectively.
Advertising
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. The amount charged to
advertising expenses was $117,744 and $35,865 for the years ended June 30,
2000 and 1999, respectively.
Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes result from the temporary differences between the
financial statement and income tax basis of assets and liabilities and are
measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when
differences are expected to reverse.
Loss Per Common Share
In March 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings Per Share ("SFAS 128").
SFAS 128 provides a different method of calculating earnings per share than
was formerly used in APB Opinion 15. SFAS 128 provides for the calculation
of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share includes
no dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common
stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
for the period. Dilutive earnings per share reflects the potential dilution
of securities that could share in the earnings of the Company.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Concentrations of Credit Risk
The Company is required by FASB Statement 105, "Disclosure of Information
about Financial Instruments with Concentrations of Credit Risk" to disclose
concentrations of credit risk. The Company's financial instruments that are
exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash
equivalents, restricted cash and certificates of deposit, trade accounts
receivable and notes receivable with related parties. The Company places
cash and temporary cash investments, which, at times, exceed FDIC insurance
limits, in financial institutions with strong credit ratings. The Company
extends credit in the normal course of business to a number of customers in
the transportation industry. As of June 30, 2000, the Company had
uncollateralized receivables with three customers approximating $391,000,
which represents 82% of the Company's trade account balance, including the
related party. As of June 30, 1999, the
2. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Concentrations of Credit Risk (Continued)
Company had uncollateralized receivables with three customers approximating
$274,634, which represents 86% of the Company's trade account balance,
including the related party. During fiscal 2000, sales to three customers
amounted to approximately 33%, 30% and 13% of the Company's revenues.
During fiscal 1999, sales to two customers amounted to approximately 33%
and 17% of the Company's revenues.
Other Risks and Uncertainties
The Company is subject to the business risks inherent in the petroleum
industry. These risks include, but are not limited to, a high degree of
competition within the petroleum industry and continuous technological
advances. Future technological advances in the petroleum industry may
result in the availability of new services or products that could compete
with the products currently provided by the Company.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash
investments in certificates of deposit, accounts and notes receivable and
long-term debt reported on the balance sheet approximate their fair value.
The Company estimated the fair value of long-term debt by comparing the
carrying amount to the future cash flows of the instruments, discounted
using the Company's incremental rate of borrowing for similar instruments.
Management's Estimates and Assumptions
The accompanying financial statements are prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles which requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that effect 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. The actual results could differ from
those estimates.
Product Warranty
The Company maintains product liability insurance for claims, if any,
resulting from the use of the "Petromoly" product.

Statement of Cash Flows
For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers
demand deposits and highly liquid debt instruments with an initial maturity
of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Stock Based Compensation
In October 1995, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No.
123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" was issued which establishes
financial accounting and reporting standards for stock-based employee
compensation plans, effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
1995. Those plans include all arrangements by which employees receive
shares of the employer or the employer incurs liabilities to employees in
amounts based on the price of the employer's stock. The Statement also
applies to transactions in which an entity issues its equity securities or
other equity investments to acquire goods or services from non-employees.
As of June 30, 2000, the Company has stock options outstanding under its
1996 Stock Option Plan (see Note 10).
SFAS No.123 also requires that equity instruments issued to non-employees
be accounted for based on fair value. The Statement encourages all entities
to adopt the fair value based method for employee stock compensation plans.
However, it allows an entity to continue to measure compensation cost for
those plans using the intrinsic value based method of accounting prescribed
by APB Opinion No. 25, ("APB No. 25"), "Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees". Entities electing to remain with the accounting in APB No.25
must make pro forma disclosures of net income and earnings per share, as if
the fair value based method of accounting had been applied. The Company has
elected to remain with the accounting under APB No. 25 and has made the
required pro forma disclosures in Note 10.
3. REVERSE MERGER
On July 22, 1996, a reverse merger was consummated, whereby Ogden McDonald

compensation cost for the Company's stock options granted had been
determined in accordance with the fair value based method prescribed in
