                  KELLEY OIL & GAS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Kelley Oil & Gas 
Corporation (the "Company" or "KOGC") have been prepared by the Company in 
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and reflect all 
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair 
statement in all material respects of the results for the interim periods 
presented.  The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1996 
are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year.  
The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note 1 to 
the financial statements in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended 
December 31, 1995.

     Certain financial statement items in the interim 1995 period have been
reclassified to conform to the interim 1996 presentation.  In addition, gas
marketing revenues and cost of gas sold have been presented on a net basis for
the periods presented and are reflected in the "Gas marketing revenues, net" on
the Consolidated Statements of Loss.

NOTE 2 - EQUITY INFUSION

     In February 1996, the Company issued 48 million shares of its Common Stock
at $1.00 per share to Contour Production Company L.L.C. ("Contour") upon the
closing of a Stock Purchase Agreement between KOGC and Contour (the "Contour
Transaction").  The newly issued shares represented 49.8% of KOGC's voting power
at the time of the Contour Transaction.  In connection with the Contour
Transaction, the Company granted Contour an option (the "Contour Option") to
purchase up to 27 million shares (the "Maximum Option Number") of Common Stock
at $1.00 per share (subject to antidilution adjustments) upon satisfaction of
certain conditions, including the absence of any KOGC debt repurchase or
redemption obligations as a result of the purchase (a "Debt Event").  Contour is
required to exercise the Contour Option for the Maximum Option Number within 30
days after it concludes in its sole discretion that a Debt Event would not occur
as a result of the purchase.

     A Debt Event would occur upon (i) a "Change of Control" as defined in the
indenture for the Company's 13 1/2% Senior Notes due 1999 (the "Senior Notes"),
(ii) a "Change in Control" as defined in the indenture for the Company's 7 7/8%
Convertible Subordinated Notes due 1999 (the "7 7/8% Notes") or (iii) a
"Redemption Event" as defined in the indenture for the Company's 8 1/2%
Convertible Subordinated Debentures due 2000 (the "8 1/2% Debentures").  A Debt
Event would entitle each holder of the affected securities to require the
repurchase or redemption of the holder's securities.  While the current exercise
of the Contour Option would not cause a Debt Event under the indenture for the 8
1/2% Debentures, it would require waivers or consents from the holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes and 7 7/8% Notes.

NOTE 3 - PRO FORMA DATA FOR THE CONSOLIDATION AND THE CONTOUR TRANSACTION 

     THE CONSOLIDATION.  The Company was formed in 1994 to consolidate the 
equity ownership of Kelley Oil & Gas Partners, Ltd. ("Kelley Partners") and 
Kelley Oil Corporation ("Kelley Oil"), the managing general partner of Kelley 
Partners (the "Consolidation").  The Consolidation was recorded as of 
February 7, 1995 for financial accounting purposes.  The following table 
presents unaudited pro forma results of the Company's operations for the six 
months ended June 30, 1995 as if the Consolidation had occurred on January 1, 
1995.  This information is presented for illustrative purposes only and is 
not necessarily indicative of the Company's future financial performance or 
results of operations.

NOTE 4 - PREFERRED AND ESOP PREFERRED STOCK CONVERSIONS

     Under the terms of the Certificate of Designation governing the 
Company's $2.625 Convertible Exchangeable Preferred Stock (the "Public 
Preferred Stock"), the Contour Transaction triggered a special conversion 
right under which the conversion price was reduced to $4.00 for a period of 
45 days commencing March 13, 1996.  In April 1996, 696,823 shares of 
Preferred Stock were converted into 4,355,040 shares of the Company's Common 
Stock.

     In January 1996, the Company suspended the payment of the quarterly 
Public Preferred Stock dividend scheduled for February 1, 1996.  Future 
dividends on the Public Preferred Stock are prohibited under the agreement 
covering the Company's credit facility.  As of June 30, 1996, $2.3 million or 
$1.31 per share in dividends were in arrears, increasing  the total 
liquidation value to $45.9 million.

     The Company had four outstanding series of Cumulative Convertible 
Preferred Stock ("ESOP Preferred Stock"), which ranked junior in dividend and 
liquidation rights to the Public Preferred Stock.  In June 1996, each of the 
outstanding 1,861,619 shares of ESOP Preferred Stock was redeemed for one 
share of the Company's Common Stock.

NOTE 5 - EMPLOYEE STOCK OPTIONS

     In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued 
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for 
Stock-Based Compensation" ("FAS 123"), which established financial accounting 
and reporting standards for stock-based employee compensation plans and for 
transactions in which an entity issues its equity instruments to acquire 
goods and services from nonemployees.  FAS 123 requires, among other things, 
that compensation cost be calculated for fixed stock options at the grant 
date by determining fair value using an option-pricing model.  The Company 
has the option of recognizing the compensation cost over the vesting period 
as an expense in the consolidated statement of operations or making pro forma 
disclosures in the notes to financial statements reflecting the effects on 
net earnings as if the compensation cost had been recognized in the 
consolidated statement of operations.  In February 1996 in conjunction with 
the Contour Transaction, the Company granted options to purchase 2.5 million 
shares of Common Stock at $1.00 per share.  The Company adopted FAS 123 in 
1996 and will make the required pro forma disclosures in the notes to its 
annual financial statements.

NOTE 6 - RESTRUCTURING EXPENSE

     In the second quarter of 1996, the Company incurred a $2 million 
restructuring charge associated primarily with staff reductions and related 
severance settlements of 12 employees and various reorganization costs, of 
which $.3 million has been paid through June 30, 1996.  These charges along 
with charges incurred in prior periods are included in accounts payable and 
accrued expenses on the balance sheet in the amount of $2.2 million, of which 
$.5 million is associated with restructuring charges incurred in prior 
periods.

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


GENERAL

     INTRODUCTION.  Kelley Oil & Gas Corporation (the "Company" or "KOGC") is 
engaged with its subsidiaries and subsidiary partnerships (collectively, 
the "Kelley Group") in the development of oil and natural gas properties 
located onshore primarily in Louisiana.  The Company's strategy has 
historically been focused on development drilling and exploration activities 
in or near established production areas.  The Company intends to continue its 
emphasis on development drilling and to augment this strategy with the 
acquisition of producing oil and gas reserves.  KOGC also owns and operates 
natural gas gathering and transportation systems and markets natural gas.  
The Company's primary financial objective is capital appreciation through 
growth in production, reserves and cash flow.

     DRILLING OPERATIONS.  During the first half of 1996, the Company 
participated in drilling 25 gross (10.41 net) wells.  KOGC has further 
increased its focus on north Louisiana operations with a 6-rig drilling 
program initiated in the second quarter.  KOGC is considering industry 
partnerships to diversify risks associated with exploring certain of its 
south Louisiana properties.

     HEDGING ACTIVITIES.  KOGC periodically uses forward sales contracts, 
natural gas swap agreements and options to reduce exposure to downward price 
fluctuations on natural gas production of the Kelley Group.  The swap 
agreements generally provide for the Kelley Group to receive or make 
counterparty payments on the differential between a fixed price and a 
variable indexed price for natural gas.  Gains and losses realized by the 
Kelley Group from hedging activities are included in oil and gas revenues.  
Through a combination of natural gas swap agreements and forward sales 
contracts, 44.3% of the Kelley Group's natural gas production for the second 
quarter of 1996 was affected by hedging transactions at an average Nymex 
quoted price of $2.13 per MMBtu, before transaction costs and transportation 
costs on gas delivered under forward sales contracts.  As of July 31, 1996, 
approximately 41.5% of the Kelley Group's anticipated natural gas production 
for the balance of 1996 has been hedged by forward sales contracts and 
natural gas swap agreements at an average Nymex quoted price of $2.22 per 
MMBtu, before transaction and transportation costs. Additionally, the Kelley 
Group has secured a price floor on 21.1% of estimated production for the 
remainder of the year at an average price of $1.99 per MMBtu, after 
transaction costs. 

     ACCOUNTING TREATMENT OF THE CONSOLIDATION.  In February 1995, the equity 
interests in Kelley Oil & Gas Partners, Ltd. ("Kelley Partners") and Kelley 
Oil Corporation ("Kelley Oil") were consolidated into KOGC (the 
"Consolidation"). For financial accounting purposes, the Consolidation was 
treated as a purchase by KOGC of the Public Unitholders' interests in the net 
assets of Kelley Partners.  As a result of the purchase accounting treatment 
of the Consolidation, the Company's consolidated financial statements through 
the date of the Consolidation reflect Kelley Oil's historical results on a 
stand alone basis, with results of combined operations of the Company 
recorded thereafter.

     PARTNERSHIP MERGER.   In March 1996, Kelley Partners was merged into the 
Company (the "Partnership Merger") as part of ongoing efforts to streamline 
operations and reduce costs.  Prior to the Partnership Merger, Kelley 
Partners had outstanding 8 1/2% Convertible Subordinated Debentures due 2000 
("8 1/2% Debentures) in the aggregate principal amount of $26.9 million and 7 
7/8% Convertible Subordinated Notes due 1999 ("7 7/8% Notes") in the 
aggregate principal amount at maturity of $34.4 million.  Under the terms of 
the Consolidation, the 8 1/2% Debentures and 7 7/8% Notes became convertible 
into the Company's Common Stock or a combination of its Common and $2.625 
Convertible Exchangeable Preferred Stock ("Public Preferred Stock") instead 
of units in Kelley Partners ("Units") based on the exchange ratios for the 
Units in the Consolidation.  In connection with the Partnership Merger, the 8 
1/2% Debentures and 7 7/8% Notes became direct obligations of KOGC.


                                       9
<PAGE>


     PUBLIC PREFERRED STOCK SPECIAL CONVERSION RIGHT.  In March 1996, a 
special conversion right (the "Special Conversion Right") for the Public 
Preferred Stock was triggered by KOGC's issuance of 48 million shares of 
its Common Stock to Contour Production Company L.L.C. ("Contour") under a 
Stock Purchase Agreement between KGOC and Contour (the "Contour 
Transaction").  Under the Special Conversion Right, the conversion price of 
the Public Preferred Stock was reduced to $4.00 for a period of 45 days ended 
April 25, 1996.  A total of 696,823 shares of Public Preferred Stock were 
tendered pursuant to the Special Conversion Right, resulting in the issuance 
of 4,355,040 shares of Common Stock and a reduction in the outstanding Public 
Preferred Stock to 1,745,500 shares as of April 30, 1996. Although dividends 
on the Public Preferred Stock ("Preferred Stock") were suspended in January 
1996, the decrease in outstanding Public Preferred Stock will reduce future 
dividend arrearages.  See "Liquidity and Capital Resources" below.

     RESTRUCTURING EXPENSE.  In the second quarter of 1996, the Company 
incurred a $2.0 million restructuring charge, associated with management 
realignment and termination settlements.  Of this amount $.3 million was paid 
in the second quarter with the balance of $1.7 million included in accounts 
payable and accrued expenses on the balance sheet.  Management anticipates an 
additional restructuring charge will be incurred by the end of 1996.

     EMPLOYEE STOCK OPTIONS.  In October 1995, the Financial Accounting 
Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, 
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("FAS 123"), which established 
financial accounting and reporting standards for stock-based employee 
compensation plans and for transactions in which an entity issues its equity 
instruments to acquire goods and services from nonemployees.  In February 
1996 in conjunction with the Contour Transaction 2.5 million options were 
granted at $1.00 per share.  The Company adopted FAS 123 in 1996 and will make 
the required pro forma disclosures in the notes to the annual financial 
statements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     QUARTERS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 AND 1995.  The Company's oil and gas 
revenues of $12.6 million for the second quarter of 1996 increased 31.3% 
compared to $9.6 million in the same quarter last year.  Production of 
natural gas during the current quarter increased 5.6% to 5,036,000 Mcf from 
4,767,000 Mcf in the second quarter of 1995, while the average price of 
natural gas increased 36.4% to $2.25 per Mcf in the current quarter from 
$1.65 per Mcf in the corresponding quarter last year.  Production of crude 
oil and natural gas liquids in the current quarter totaled 55,450 barrels, 
with an average sales price of $23.21 per barrel compared to 86,835 barrels 
at $19.12 per barrel in the second quarter of 1995, representing a volume 
decrease of 36.1% and a price increase of 21.4%.

     For the second quarter 1996, gas marketing revenues from natural gas 
marketing and transportation operations, net of associated costs, increased 
50.0% to $.3 million from $.2 million for the same quarter of 1995.

     Production expenses for the second quarter of 1996 decreased 7.1% to 
$2.6 million from $2.8 million in the same quarter last year, reflecting 
lower severance taxes in the current quarter.  On a unit of production basis, 
production expenses decreased to $.49 per Mcfe in the second quarter of 1996 
from $.53 per Mcfe in the corresponding quarter last year.

     KOGC expensed exploration costs of $1.4 million in the second quarter of 
1996 and $5.4 million in the corresponding quarter of 1995, a decrease of 
74.1%, primarily reflecting the Company's temporary suspension of exploratory 
drilling and focus on lower risk activities during the current quarter.  The 
decrease in these expenses also reflects lower geological and geophysical 
expenses and unproved leasehold impairment provisions.

     General and administrative expenses of $2.2 million in the second 
quarter of 1996 increased 37.5% compared to $1.6 million in the corresponding 
quarter last year.  The increase was primarily attributable to added expenses 
associated with management realignments implemented in connection with the 
Contour Transaction.  On a unit of production basis, these expenses increased 
from $.31 per Mcfe in the second quarter of 1995 compared to $.41 per Mcfe in 
the current quarter.  KOGC is pursuing cost containment measures and 
anticipates a reduction in general and administrative expense levels 
commencing in 1997. 


                                      10
<PAGE>


     Interest and other debt expenses of $5.9 million in the current quarter 
increased 3.5% from $5.7 million in the same quarter last year.  The increase 
in interest expense resulted primarily from higher interest rates under 
KOGC's 13 1/2% Senior Notes due 1999 (the "Senior Notes") than the $90 
million of bank debt refinanced with proceeds from the Senior Note offering 
in June 1995 and higher average debt levels during the current quarter.  See 
"Liquidity and Capital Resources" below.  In addition to its interest 
expense, the Company recorded noncash charges in the second quarter of 1996 
of $.5 million for amortization of debt issuance costs, $.2 million for 
accretion of note discount and $.5 million for accretion of debt valuation 
discount.

     Depreciation, depletion and amortization ("DD&A") decreased 53.6% from 
$8.4 million in the second quarter of 1995 to $3.9 million in the current 
quarter, primarily as a result of lower depletion rates following impairment 
charges aggregating $150.1 million recognized in the fourth quarter of 1995 
against the carrying value of KOGC's oil and gas properties under the 
Financial Accounting Standards Board's Statement No. 121, Accounting for the 
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of ("FAS 
121") and from an increase in quantities of proved developed reserves.  On a 
unit of production basis, DD&A for oil and gas activities decreased from 
$1.58 per Mcfe in the second quarter 1995 to $.72 per Mcfe in the current 
quarter.  

     KOGC recognized net losses of $4.8 million in the second quarter of 1996 
and $13.8 million in the same quarter last year.  The decline in the net 
losses was primarily attributable to higher oil and gas prices and lower DD&A 
and exploration costs, partially offset by higher interest and general and 
administrative expenses.  The net loss attributable to common shares in the 
second quarter of 1995 was increased by $1.8 million of preferred stock 
dividends, which were suspended in January 1996.

     PRO FORMA COMPARISON.  Because the Company's historical results for 
periods prior to the Consolidation reflect operations of Kelley Oil alone, 
they are not comparable with its operating results after February 1995, which 
reflect the Company's combined operations following the Consolidation.  
Accordingly, the following discussion of comparative results of operations 
for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 reflects pro forma 
information for the six months ended June 30, 1995, giving effect to the 
Consolidation from the beginning of the year.  The Company believes this 
provides a more meaningful comparison of results and operational trends than 
a comparison based on historical results.

     SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 AND 1995.  The Company's oil and gas 
revenues of $25.3 million for the first half of 1996 increased 20.5% compared 
to $21.0 million on a pro forma basis in the same period last year.  
Production of natural gas during the current period decreased 2.5% to 
9,904,000 Mcf from 10,158,000 Mcf in the first half of 1995, while the 
average price of natural gas increased 34.9% to $2.32 per Mcf in the current 
period from $1.72 per Mcf in the corresponding period last year.  Production 
of crude oil and natural gas liquids in the current period totaled 120,263 
barrels, with an average sales price of $21.34 per barrel compared to 198,657 
barrels at $17.55 per barrel in the first half of 1995, representing a volume 
decrease of 39.5% and a price increase of 21.6% on a pro forma basis.

     For the first six months of 1996, gas marketing revenues from natural 
gas marketing and transportation operations, net of associated costs, 
increased 75.0% to $.7 million from $.4 million for the same period in 1995.

     Production expenses for the first half of 1996 decreased 5.5% to $5.2 
million from $5.5 million in the same period last year on a pro forma basis, 
reflecting lower severance taxes in the current period.  On a unit of 
production basis, production expenses remained constant at $.48 per Mcfe for 
both periods in 1996 and 1995.

     KOGC expensed exploration costs of $3.1 million in the first half of 
1996 and $7.8 million on a pro forma basis in the corresponding period of 
1995, a decrease of 60.3%, primarily reflecting the Company's temporary 
suspension of exploratory drilling and focus on lower risk activities during 
the current period.  The decrease in these expenses also reflects lower 
geological and geophysical expenses and unproved leasehold impairment 
provisions.

     General and administrative expenses of $4.8 million in the first six 
months of 1996 increased 41.2% compared to $3.4 million on a pro forma basis 
in the corresponding period last year.  The increase was primarily 
attributable to added expenses associated with management realignments 
implemented in connection with the Contour Transaction and $650,000 in 
bonuses awarded prior to the closing of the Contour Transaction.  On a unit 
of production basis, these expenses increased from $.30 per Mcfe in the first 
half of 1995 to $.45 per Mcfe in the current period.  KOGC is pursuing cost 
containment measures and anticipates a reduction in general and 
administrative expense levels commencing in 1997. 

     Interest and other debt expenses of $12.3 million in the current period 
increased 24.2% from $9.9 million on a pro forma basis in the first six 
months of 1995.  The increase in interest expense resulted primarily from 
higher interest rates under the Senior Notes than under the $90 million of 
bank debt refinanced with proceeds from the Senior Note offering in June 1995 
and higher average debt levels during the current period.  See "Liquidity and 
Capital Resources" below.  In addition to its interest expense, the Company 
recorded noncash charges in the first half of 1996 of $1.2 million for 
amortization of debt issuance costs, $.4 million for accretion of note 
discount and $1.0 million for accretion of debt valuation discount.

     DD&A decreased 44.5% from $17.3 million on a pro forma basis in the 
first half of 1995 to $9.6 million in the current period, primarily as a 
result of lower depletion rates following impairment charges aggregating 
$150.1 million recognized in the fourth quarter of 1995 against the carrying 
value of KOGC's oil and gas properties under FAS 121 and from an increase in 
quantities of proved developed reserves.  On a unit of production basis, DD&A 
for oil and gas activities decreased from $1.53 per Mcfe in the first half of 
1995 to $.90 per Mcfe in the current period.

     KOGC recognized net losses of $10.3 million in the first half of 1996 
and $21.9 million on a pro forma basis in the same period last year.  The 
decline in the net losses was primarily attributable to higher oil and gas 
prices and lower DD&A and exploration and dry hole costs, partially offset by 
higher interest and general and administrative expenses.  The net loss 
attributable to common shares in the first half of 1995 was increased by $3.5 
million of Preferred Stock dividends, which were suspended in January 1996.

     The results of operations for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 
1996 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full 
year.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     CONTOUR TRANSACTION.  In February 1996, following discussions with 
potential acquirors, the Company issued 48 million shares of its Common Stock 
at $1.00 per share to Contour Production Company L.L.C. ("Contour") upon the 
closing of a Stock Purchase Agreement between KOGC and Contour.  The newly 
issued shares represented 49.8% of KOGC's voting power at the time of the 
Contour Transaction.  In connection with the Contour Transaction, the Company 
(i) entered into an Option Agreement with Contour (the "Contour Option 
Agreement"), (ii) obtained consents from its principal stockholders, subject 
to compliance with applicable securities laws, to amend its Certificate of 
Incorporation to increase its authorized Common Stock from 100 million shares 
to 200 million shares, (iii) entered into employment agreements with John F. 
Bookout, President of Contour, and other new executives named by him, (iv) 
reduced the size of its Board to seven members and reconstituted the Board 
with three continuing directors and four designees of Contour, and (v) 
replaced its credit facility with a new $35 million facility. 

     Although the Contour Transaction has provided KOGC with the means to 
continue its drilling operations in 1996 with the objective of increasing its 
cash flow and reserves, the Company continues to have over $161 million face 
amount of public debt outstanding, requiring $18.5 million in annual interest 
payments.  The Company also may incur new bank borrowings to fund part of its 
drilling and acquisition activities for 1996.  In addition, although 
dividends are prohibited under the agreement covering the Company's credit 
facility and are currently restricted under the indenture for the Senior 
Notes, the outstanding Preferred Stock requires dividend accruals aggregating 
$4.6 million 


                                      12
<PAGE>


annually and carries liquidation preferences over the Common Stock currently 
totaling $45.9 million.  KOGC's debt instruments also impose restrictions on 
the Company's activities, including its use of funds and acquisitions.

     Under the Contour Option Agreement, Contour has undertaken to provide 
the Company with $27 million in additional financing through the purchase of 
27 million shares (the "Maximum Option Number") of Common Stock at $1.00 per 
share (subject to antidilution adjustments) upon satisfaction of certain 
conditions, including the absence of any KOGC debt repurchase or redemption 
obligations as a result of the purchase (a "Debt Event"), but not later than 
January 2000.  A Debt Event would occur upon (i) a "Change of Control" as 
defined in the indenture for the Senior Notes, (ii) a "Change in Control" as 
defined in the indenture for the 7 7/8% Notes or (iii) a "Redemption Event" 
as defined in the indenture for the 8 1/2% Debentures.  A Debt Event with 
respect to either series of Notes or the 8 1/2% Debentures would entitle each 
holder of the affected securities to require the repurchase or redemption of 
the holder's securities. Contour is required to exercise the Contour Option 
for the Maximum Option Number within 30 days after it concludes in its sole 
discretion that a Debt Event would not occur as a result of the purchase.  
While the current exercise of the Contour Option would not cause a Debt Event 
under the indenture for the 8 1/2% Debentures, it would require waivers or 
consents from the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the 
Senior Notes and 7 7/8% Notes.  The Company is currently reviewing its 
options for modifying its existing capital structure with the objectives of 
improving its liquidity, increasing its operational flexibility and 
permitting the exercise of the Contour Option.

     LIQUIDITY.  Net cash used in operating activities, before working 
capital adjustments, during the first six months of 1996 aggregated $5.1 
million. The Company's cash position was increased during the first six 
months of 1996 through the proceeds of $8.0 million in bank borrowings and 
$48 million from the issuance of 48 million shares of Common Stock in the 
Contour Transaction, partially offset by $4.0 million of transaction costs.  
Funds used in investing and financing activities were comprised of net 
property and equipment expenditures of $16.3 million, principal payments of 
$30.0 million on bank borrowings and $8.9 million for working capital.  As a 
result of these activities, cash and cash equivalents increased from $6.4 
million at December 31, 1995 to $7.1 million as of June 30, 1996.  As of that 
date, KOGC had a working capital deficit of $4.0 million, compared to a 
working capital deficit of $9.2 million at the end of 1995.

     In February 1996, the Company repaid outstanding bank borrowings of 
$30.0 million under its prior credit facility with proceeds from the Contour 
Transaction.  In connection with the Contour Transaction, KOGC replaced that 
facility with a new $35.0 million revolving credit facility agented by Texas 
Commerce Bank National Association ("Credit Facility").  The borrowers under 
the Credit Facility are Kelley Oil and Kelley Operating Company, Ltd., with 
the Company and its subsidiary partnerships as guarantors.  Under the terms 
of the Senior Note indenture, Credit Facility borrowings will be limited to 
$30.0 million until KOGC's year end reserves exceed reported volumes as of 
January 1, 1995 as adjusted for subsequent asset sales.  There were no 
outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility at June 30, 1996.

     Interest on borrowings under the Credit Facility is payable at a rate 
equal to (i) the higher of  1/2% above the agent bank's prime rate or 1% 
above the federal funds rate in effect from time to time or (ii) at the 
Company's election, 1 1/2% above a quoted Libor rate, together with a 
quarterly commitment fee equal to  3/8% per annum of the unused portion of 
the available borrowing base.  The agreement for the Credit Facility requires 
the payment of interest only until March 15, 1999, when all borrowings will 
be repayable, subject to mandatory prepayment with net proceeds from asset 
sales in excess of related borrowing base reductions.

     Borrowings under the Credit Facility are secured by mortgages on 
substantially all of the oil and gas assets of the Company and its 
subsidiaries, together with a security interest in production proceeds from 
oil and gas sales. The agreement covering the Credit Facility prohibits the 
payment of dividends, requires the consent of the lenders for third party 
borrowings or extraordinary transactions and provides financial covenants for 
KOGC, including a maximum ratio of total funded debt to earnings before 
interest, taxes and noncash charges and a minimum interest coverage ratio.

     CAPITAL COMMITMENTS.  In February 1994, the Kelley Partners 1994
Development Drilling Program (the "1994 DDP") completed a public offering of 
20,864,414 units at $3.00 per unit on a preemptive basis to Unitholders in 
Kelley Partners.  Kelley Oil subscribed for 18,821,655 units in addition to 
its 3.94% general partner interest in the 1994 DDP.  An additional 342,234 
units were subscribed by Kelley Oil following investor defaults.  As a 
result, Kelley Oil's subscription commitment to the 1994 DDP increased to 
$60.1 million or 92.15% of the 1994 DDP's total committed capital (the "KOIL 
Share"), with other unitholders committing for the balance or 7.85% of the 
1994 DDP's total committed capital (the "Outside Share"), payable in each 
case 10% on subscription and the balance through the end of November 1994.  
As of June 30, 1996,  Kelley Oil had contributed $42.4 million to the 1994 
DDP, together with interest at a market rate on the portion of its commitment 
that remained outstanding after November 1994.

     The 1994 DDP's partnership agreement provides that any contributions of 
the partners not used or committed to be used for drilling activities during 
the two-year period from the commencement of operations through February 29, 
1996 (the "Commitment Period") be distributed to the partners on a pro rata 
basis as a return of capital.  Based on the amount of committed capital 
actually used and committed to drilling activities by the end of the 
Commitment Period, Kelley Oil determined the adjusted level of committed 
partnership capital at $60.7 million in accordance with the 1994 DDP's 
partnership agreement, and the 1994 DDP then distributed $.3 million 
representing the Outside Share of uncommitted capital to its unitholders 
other than Kelley Oil in March 1996 as a return of capital. Because the KOIL 
Share of committed capital exceeded its capital contributions at that time, 
Kelley Oil did not receive a distribution of uncommitted capital. Kelley Oil 
intends to contribute the unfunded portion of its commitment, aggregating 
$10.0 million as of August 12, 1996 after giving effect to the reduction in 
the 1994 DDP's committed capital, together with interest, as funds are needed 
for completion of the 1994 DDP's drilling program.

     The Company anticipates that cash flow from operations and available 
borrowings under the Credit Facility will be adequate to fund its capital 
expenditure requirements for 1996.  In addition, while exercise of the 
Contour Option cannot be assured prior to January 2000, any proceeds received 
under the Contour Option Agreement will be used to support drilling and 
acquisition activities.  To fully realize its financial objectives of growth 
in production and reserves the Company could be required to pursue other 
financing alternatives.
