PART I
ITEMS 1 AND 2. BUSINESS AND PROPERTIES
Introduction
Contour Energy Co. (formerly Kelley Oil & Gas Corporation), incorporated in
Delaware in 1994, with its subsidiaries and subsidiary partnerships
(individually and collectively the "Company"), is engaged in the acquisition,
exploration, development and production of oil and natural gas. The Company's
strategy is to increase reserves, production and cash flows in a cost-efficient
manner through strategic domestic acquisitions and a program of balanced
development and exploration activities. The Company's executive offices are
located at 601 Jefferson Street, Suite 1100, Houston, Texas 77002, and its
telephone number is (713) 652-5200.
As used in this Report, "Mcf" means thousand cubic feet, "Mmcf" means
million cubic feet, "Bcf" means billion cubic feet, "Bbl" means barrel or 42
U.S. gallons liquid volume, "Mbbl" means thousand barrels, "Mcfe" means thousand
cubic feet of natural gas equivalent using the ratio of six Mcf of natural gas
to one Bbl of crude oil, condensate and natural gas liquids, "Mmcfe" means
million cubic feet of natural gas equivalent, "Bcfe" means billion cubic feet of
natural gas equivalent, and "Mmbtu" means million British thermal units. This
Report includes various other capitalized terms that are defined when first
used.
1999 Business Developments
In 1999, the Company undertook several strategic actions in response to the
severe downturn in the industry in 1998 caused by low commodity prices and the
closing of the capital markets to smaller oil and gas companies. These actions,
described below, were designed to increase the near-term liquidity of the
Company, provide capital for its ongoing capital expenditure programs and
establish a stronger base for future growth.
In April 1999, the Company entered into an Exploration and Development
Agreement with Phillips Petroleum Company ("Phillips") relating to certain of
the Company's interests in the Bryceland, West Bryceland and Sailes fields in
north Louisiana ("Phillips Transaction"). Pursuant to the agreement, the Company
(1) received an $83 million cash payment (2) retained a 42 Bcf, 8-year
volumetric overriding royalty interest (the "VORI") and a 1% override on the
excess of production above such royalty interest and (3) retained 25% of its
working interest in the Cotton Valley formation. In addition, Phillips, will at
its risk and expense, operate, develop, exploit and explore the properties
thereby relieving the Company of significant operating, exploration and
development costs in the future. The transaction closed on May 17, 1999. The
Company recognized a gain of approximately $25.9 million in 1999 related to this
transaction.
In April 1999, the Company negotiated a private offering of $135.0 million
principal amount, 14% Senior Secured Notes (the "Notes"). The Notes are secured
by a first lien on substantially all of the Company's proved oil and natural gas
properties remaining after the sale to Phillips and guaranteed by three entities
wholly-owned by the Company. In accordance with the Notes indenture, on June 30,
1999, the Company funded $37.5 million to repurchase $35 million principal
amount of the Notes at a repurchase price equal to 104% of the principal amount,
plus accrued and unpaid interest and commitment fees to the date of the
repurchase.
On May 17, 1999, the Company funded $28.5 million to repurchase $46.1
million of the outstanding principal amounts of its 7 7/8% Convertible
Subordinated Notes due December 15, 1999 and its 8 1/2% Convertible Subordinated
Debentures due April 1, 2000 (collectively, the "Securities") at a price equal
to $590 per $1,000 principal amount (not including accrued interest paid of $1.2
million).
In addition, on May 17, 1999 the Company repaid all borrowings outstanding
under its revolving credit facility of $115.5 million plus accrued interest and
terminated the revolving credit facility and funded cash collateral for a $1.5
million letter of credit which was subsequently increased to $7.5 million. The
Company used net proceeds remaining from the transactions for general corporate
purposes. In 1999, the Company recognized an extraordinary gain of $11.1 million
related
2
<PAGE> 4
to debt repurchases and refinancings, comprised of: (i) a net gain on the
Securities tender offer and other debt retirements of $16.0 million, reduced by,
(ii) a $1.4 million premium on the $35 million Notes repurchase and the
proportionate write-off of debt issue costs of $2.4 million and (iii) the
write-off of credit facility debt issue costs of $1.1 million.
In March 2000, the Company executed a sale of a portion of its VORI. The
net proceeds from the sale approximated $20 million. Since the portion of the
reserves sold (approximately 16.5 Bcf) relates to production beginning April 1,
2003, cash flows from operations of the Company before that date are not
impacted.
The Company has received the benefits of a general increase in the level of
commodity prices over the past several months. This increase, combined with the
actions and the sale described above, have provided the Company with near-term
liquidity and capital for its ongoing operations. However, the commodity markets
are volatile and there is no certainty that current oil and natural gas prices
can be sustained at these levels. In addition, the Company continues to have
significant debt outstanding relative to its asset base and pays a high portion
of its cash flow to service such debt (see "Capital Resources"). Furthermore, as
the Company does not have a revolving credit facility, the Company does not have
ready access to incremental sources of capital to supplement its operational
requirements. The Company believes that it has the ability for the foreseeable
future based on its current condition, including economic conditions, to meet
all obligations as they come due and fund its current capital expenditure
program from cash on hand and operational cash flows. However, because of the
combination of the factors described herein (see "Risk Factors"; "Liquidity";
and "Capital Resources") and the uncertainty of drilling successes required to
sustain or increase operational cash flows, there can be no assurance that the
Company will be able to fund future obligations.
Company History
The Consolidation. The Company was formed in 1994 to consolidate the equity
ownership (the "Consolidation") of Kelley Oil & Gas Partners, Ltd. ("Kelley
Partners") and Kelley Oil Corporation ("Kelley Oil"). Before the Consolidation
in 1994, Kelley Partners and developmental drilling partnership subsidiaries of
Kelley Oil ("DDPs") jointly conducted drilling activities. Historically, Kelley
Oil (the managing general partner of Kelley Partners) participated
proportionately in these operations, with Kelley Partners retaining one-third of
its working interest in each prospect and assigning drilling rights for the
balance of its interest to a DDP. In addition to serving as managing general
partner of each DDP, Kelley Oil purchased for its own investment account all
units in DDPs that were not subscribed preemptively by other investors in Kelley
Partners. In the Consolidation, the Company acquired Kelley Oil's interests in
the remaining DDPs sponsored during 1994 and 1992 aggregating 92.2% and 84.3%,
respectively. The Consolidation was completed on February 7, 1995 upon approval
by investors in Kelley Partners and Kelley Oil.
In the Consolidation, the outstanding capital stock of Kelley Oil and units
in Kelley Partners ("Units") held by investors other than Kelley Oil and its
subsidiaries ("Public Unitholders") were converted into a total of 4.4 million
shares of Common Stock of the Company, 2.4 million shares of the Company's
$2.625 convertible exchangeable preferred stock ("Preferred Stock") and 2.2
million shares of cumulative convertible preferred stock ("ESOP Preferred
Stock") held by its Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the "ESOP"). As a result of
the Consolidation, Kelley Oil became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company,
and Kelley Partners became a 99.99%-owned subsidiary partnership. The
Consolidation was treated as a purchase of the Public Unitholders' interests in
Kelley Partners by the Company for financial accounting purposes. In 1996,
Kelley Partners was merged into the Company and each of the then outstanding
shares of ESOP Preferred Stock was redeemed for one share of the Company's
Common Stock.
Contour Transaction. In January 1996, the Company entered into financing
and related agreements with Contour Production Company L.L.C. ("Contour"),
pursuant to which Contour purchased 4.8 million newly issued shares of Common
Stock for $48.0 million on February 15, 1996, and an option (the "Contour
Option") to purchase an additional 2.7 million shares of Common Stock for $27.0
million, which was exercised on December 1, 1997. In February 1996, in
connection with the first stage of Contour's investment in the Company, John F.
Bookout was appointed Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of the
Company, and certain other experienced oil industry executives were appointed to
senior management positions within the Company (all such transactions are
referred to collectively as the "Contour Transaction").

<PAGE> 5
On July 30, 1999, the Company's name was changed from Kelley Oil and Gas
Corporation to Contour Energy Co. and its NASDAQ ticker symbol to CONCC.
Concurrent with the name change, the Company established the authorized capital
stock of the Company at 22 million shares, 20 million of which were designated
as common stock and 2 million as preferred stock, and effected a 1 for 10
reverse stock split, reducing the total outstanding shares of common stock from
approximately 126 million to approximately 12.6 million (without giving effect
to the preferred stock exchange offer described in the following paragraph).
These actions were consented to by the Company's majority stockholder and became
effective on July 30, 1999. All historical share and per share data appearing in
this document have been restated to reflect this reverse stock split.
On June 28, 1999, the Company began an offer to exchange 15 shares of its
common stock (or 1.5 shares on a post-split basis) for each share of its $2.625
convertible exchangeable preferred stock ("Preferred Stock"). Pursuant to the
exchange offer, 368,633 shares of Preferred Stock were tendered representing
approximately 21% of the total Preferred Stock outstanding. In July 1999, the
shares were exchanged for 552,950 shares of newly issued common stock of the
Company (after giving effect to the 1 for 10 reverse stock split), increasing
the Company's shares of outstanding common stock to approximately 13.2 million.
With the exchange, the Company eliminated dividend arrearages of approximately
$1.5 million.
On August 30, 1999, at market close, the Company's shares of common stock
and convertible Preferred Stock, which traded under the symbols of CONCC and
CONCP, were delisted from the NASDAQ SmallCap Market. These actions were taken
as a result of the Company's failure to meet the requirements for continued
listing on this exchange. On August 31, 1999, at market open, the Company's
stock began trading on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbols of CONC and
CONCP.
Operations and Properties
Operation Activities. The Company's production is derived primarily from
four contiguous fields in the Vacherie Salt Dome region of north Louisiana,
south Louisiana and the shallow waters of the Gulf of Mexico.
Development Activities. During 1999, the Company continued development
drilling activities within its existing properties in the Vacherie Salt Dome
region of north Louisiana, south Louisiana and in the Gulf of Mexico. In north
Louisiana, the Company drilled or participated in drilling 6 gross (1.36 net)
development wells, all of which were completed as producing wells. In south
Louisiana, the Company drilled or participated in drilling 1 gross (0.50 net)
well, which was not productive. In the offshore area, the Company drilled or
participated in drilling 3 gross (0.54 net) wells, of which 2 gross (0.36 net)
wells were completed as producing wells.
Exploration Activities. The Company focuses its exploration activities
primarily on its existing leaseholdings in Terrebonne and LaFourche Parishes,
Louisiana, and in the shallow waters of the Gulf of Mexico. The number, type and
timing of proposed wells in these regions is subject to continued revision as a
result of many factors, including test and drilling results on these properties
and others, the price of oil and natural gas, availability of capital funds and
drilling rigs, weather, and general economic factors. See "Caution as to
Forward-Looking Statements" and "Risk Factors".
The Company is utilizing sophisticated technologies to identify exploration
prospects and advanced geophysical techniques to continue to develop and refine
interpretations of its 3-D seismic database, which covers (i) 619 square miles,
a major portion of its existing leaseholdings in Terrebonne and LaFourche
Parishes, in south Louisiana, (ii) 153 square miles offshore, and (iii) 546
square miles of its Permian Basin exploratory prospects.
In 1999, the Company drilled 3 gross (1.02 net) exploratory wells,
including 2 gross (0.84 net) exploratory wells in southern Louisiana, and 1
gross (.18 net) well in the offshore area, all of which have been completed as
producing wells. As of December 31, 1999, the Company had 1 gross (.50 net)
exploration well in progress in south Louisiana, that was completed as a
producing well in January 2000.
Description of Properties. The Company's properties are located in
Louisiana, and in the Gulf of Mexico, Texas, New Mexico and Arkansas. As of
January 1, 2000, the Company owned interests in a total of 275 gross (81.0 net)
producing
4
<PAGE> 6
wells. As of that date, the Company had leaseholdings covering 165,205 gross
(68,752 net) developed acres and 250,796 gross (76,613 net) undeveloped acres.
Approximately 78% of its proved oil and natural gas reserves as of January 1,
2000, was natural gas on an energy content basis. The reserves to production
ratio for these properties (based on 1999 production) was estimated to be 8.3 as
of January 1, 2000.
Significant Properties. The Company's natural gas properties in north
Louisiana are located primarily in the Sailes, Sibley, West Bryceland and Ada
fields of Webster and Bienville Parishes, while its properties in south
Louisiana are concentrated in the Orange Grove/Humphreys, Lirette, Lake Pagie,
Ouiski Bayou and Bayou Sauveur fields in Terrebonne Parish. Production is
primarily from the Hosston (north Louisiana) and Miocene (south Louisiana)
formations. Other properties are located primarily in the shallow waters of the
Gulf of Mexico, south Louisiana, and Texas. Substantially all of the Company's
oil and natural gas properties are pledged to secure borrowings under the Notes.
The following table sets forth certain information as of the dates indicated
regarding the Company's interests by major geographic region. See "Estimated
Proved Reserves -- Uncertainties in Estimating Reserves and Future Net Cash
Flows."

(1) The estimates were prepared in accordance with SEC regulations using market
or contract prices at the end of each reported period. Prices and operating
and development costs are held constant over the estimated life of the
reserves. A discount factor of 10% was used to reflect the timing of future
net cash flow. See "Estimated Proved Reserves -- Uncertainties in Estimating
Reserves and Future Net Cash Flows" and Note 12 to the Consolidated
Financial Statements.
Additional information regarding these regions is set forth below. Unless
otherwise noted, acreage and well information is provided as of December 31,
1999, and reserve information is provided as of January 1, 2000.
North Louisiana. The Company's operations in this region are 78% proved
developed, and its wells are typically drilled to a maximum depth of
approximately 10,500 feet. Operations in this region do not typically experience
geopressured formations or significant associated salt-water production. The
Company's reserves to production ratio in north Louisiana is approximately 8.3.
Its lifting costs in this region are generally low (approximately $0.14 per Mcfe
in 1999) as a result of relatively low formation pressures and minimal liquid
hydrocarbon and salt water production. The Company's share of proved reserves
associated with these fields totaled approximately 108.0 Bcfe at December 31,
1999. Included in the reserve base for north Louisiana are proved reserves
associated with the VORI retained by the Company and carved from the Sailes and
West Bryceland fields sold pursuant to the Phillips Transaction. These reserves
total 40.9 bcfe at year-end 1999 and are non-cost bearing to the Company except
for related gathering, transmission, compression costs and severance and
production taxes. In March 2000, the Company executed a sale of a portion of its
VORI for net proceeds of approximately $20 million. The portion of the VORI
reserves sold (approximately 16.5 Bcf) relates to production beginning April 1,
2003.
South Louisiana. The Company's operations in this region are primarily
focused on five fields in the Houma Embayment and Terrebonne Trough areas. These
areas contain high-quality reservoir rock, contributing to high production
rates. Wells are typically drilled to a depth of approximately 11,000 to 19,000
feet. The Company's share of proved reserves associated with these fields
totaled approximately 48.9 Bcfe at December 31, 1999. Production from the
Company's south Louisiana properties generally receives premium wellhead prices
because of the close proximity of the properties to
5
<PAGE> 7
transportation and market locations, and because of their rich condensate
content. The Company believes these factors partially offset the higher
operating costs associated with higher formation pressures, salt water disposal
and inland water well locations associated with the region. At December 31,
1999, the Company was drilling 1 gross (.50 net) well in this region, which was
subsequently completed as a producing well.
Offshore. The Company's operations in this region are primarily focused in
the shallow waters of the Gulf of Mexico, offshore Texas, Louisiana and Alabama.
In the Main Pass area, the Company participated in drilling 4 gross (.72 net)
wells during 1999, of which 3 gross (.54 net) wells were successfully completed.
The Company expects to continue additional development and exploration
activities in the Main Pass area in 2000. The Company has also acquired 81
square miles of additional 3D seismic in the Vermillion and Main Pass areas to
complement its offshore development and exploration efforts. The Company's share
of proved reserves associated with the Gulf of Mexico region totals
approximately 41.5 bcfe at December 31, 1999.
JOINT VENTURE PARTNERSHIPS
The Company participates in joint ventures with industry partners to
accelerate the exploration and evaluation of its properties and to mitigate the
risks associated with exploratory drilling projects.
The Company and Williams Production, Gulf Coast Company ("Williams"), a
unit of The Williams Companies, Inc., are 50/50 partners in a joint venture
covering 27,000 net acres in the Houma Embayment in south Louisiana. The Company
also has a joint exploration & development agreement with Fina Oil and Chemical
Company, a subsidiary of FINA, Inc. ("Fina"), and Cobra Oil and Gas Corporation
("Cobra"). The Fina joint venture represents a joint exploration and development
agreement covering an area of mutual interest (the "AMI") of approximately
400,000 acres in south Louisiana. The agreement provides for the parties to
obtain 3-D seismic coverage over all mutually agreeable prospective lands within
the AMI. To date, the Company and Fina have acquired 3-D seismic data covering
approximately 450 square miles within the AMI. The initial five-year term of the
agreement with Fina expires March 31, 2000, but there are provisions for
extensions in the agreements. The Company and Fina are now in discussions about
the nature and extent of an extension. The Company and Cobra Oil & Gas
Corporation are also involved in a joint venture covering approximately 68,000
acres in Texas, New Mexico, Arkansas, Louisiana and Alabama and includes 3-D
seismic data covering approximately 676 square miles.

(1) 1999 includes 3 mbbls and 40,835 mmcf's associated with the Company's
interest in the VORI. In March 2000, the Company executed a sale of a
portion of its VORI for net proceeds of approximately $20 million. The
portion of the VORI reserves sold (approximately 16.5 Bcf) relates to
production beginning April 1, 2003.
The estimates of proved reserves set forth in the above table were prepared
in accordance with SEC regulations using market or contract prices at the end of
each reported period. Prices and operating and development costs are held
constant over the estimated life of the reserves.
Estimated proved developed reserves are reserves that can be expected to be
recovered from existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods.
Proved undeveloped reserves are proved reserves that are expected to be
recovered from new wells drilled to known reservoirs on undrilled acreage for
which the existence and recoverability of reserves can be estimated with
reasonable certainty, or from existing wells where a relatively major
expenditure is required for recompletion.
Uncertainties in Estimating Reserves and Future Net Cash Flows. There are
numerous uncertainties in estimating quantities of proved reserves believed to
have been discovered and in projecting future rates of production and the timing
of development expenditures, including many factors beyond the control of the
Company. The reserve data set forth in this document are only estimates. Reserve
estimates are inherently imprecise and may be expected to change as additional
information becomes available. Furthermore, estimates of oil and natural gas
reserves, of necessity, are projections based on engineering data, and there are
uncertainties inherent in the interpretation of such data as well as the
projection of future rates of production and the timing of development
expenditures. Reservoir engineering is a subjective process of estimating
underground accumulations of oil and natural gas that cannot be measured
exactly, and the accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of the quality
of available data and of engineering and geological interpretation and judgment.
Accordingly, estimates of the economically recoverable quantities of oil and
natural gas attributable to any particular group of properties, classifications
of such reserves based on risk of recovery and estimates of the future net cash
flows expected therefrom prepared by different engineers or by the same
engineers at different times may vary substantially. There also can be no
assurance that the reserves set forth herein will ultimately be produced or that
the proved undeveloped reserves set forth herein will be developed within the
periods anticipated. It is possible that variances from the estimates will be
material. In addition, the estimates of future net cash flows from proved
reserves of the Company and the present value thereof are based
7
<PAGE> 9
upon certain assumptions about future production levels, prices and costs that
may not be correct when judged against actual subsequent experience. The Company
emphasizes with respect to the estimates prepared by independent petroleum
engineers that the discounted future net cash flows should not be construed as
representative of the fair market value of the proved reserves owned by the
Company since discounted future net cash flows are based upon projected cash
flows which do not provide for changes in oil and natural gas prices from those
in effect on the date indicated or for escalation of expenses and capital costs
subsequent to such date. The meaningfulness of such estimates is highly
dependent upon the accuracy of the assumptions upon which they were based.
Accordingly, investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the reserve
data included in this document.
The Company has not filed any estimates of reserves with any federal
authority or agency during the past year other than estimates contained in
filings with the SEC.

PRODUCTION, PRICE AND COST HISTORY
The following table sets forth certain production data, average sales
prices and average production expenses attributable to the Company's properties

Productive Wells and Acreage
As of December 31, 1999, the Company had leaseholdings comprising 165,205
gross (68,752 net) developed acres and 250,796 gross (76,613 net) undeveloped
acres, all located within the continental United States. The oil and gas leases
in which the Company has an interest are for varying primary terms and many,
particularly in south Louisiana, require the payment of delay rentals in lieu of
drilling operations. In north Louisiana, most of the Company's leasehold
interests are held by production; that is, so long as natural gas and oil are
produced from the properties covered thereby, the leases continue indefinitely.
The leases may be surrendered at any time by notice to the lessors, by the
cessation of production or by failure to make timely payment of delay rentals,
if applicable.
The following table sets forth the Company's ownership interests in its
leaseholds as of December 31, 1999.

Marketing of Natural Gas and Crude Oil
The Company does not refine or process any of the oil and natural gas it
produces. Substantially all of the Company's natural gas is sold under term
contracts, contracts providing for periodic price adjustments or in the spot
market. Its revenue streams are therefore sensitive to changes in current market
prices. The Company's sales of crude oil, condensate and natural gas liquids
generally are made at prices related to posted field prices.
In addition to marketing the Company's natural gas production, it secures
gas transportation arrangements, provides nomination and gas control services,
supervises gas aggregation operations and performs revenue receipt and
disbursement services as well as regulatory filing, recordkeeping, inspection,
testing, monitoring and marketing functions.
The Company believes that its activities are not currently constrained by a
lack of adequate transportation systems or system capacity and does not foresee
any material disruption in available transportation for its production. However,
there can be no assurance that the Company will not encounter these constraints
in the future. In that event, the Company would be forced to seek alternate
sources of transportation and may face increased costs.
Hedging Activities
The Company periodically uses forward sales contracts, natural gas and
crude oil price swap agreements, natural gas basis swap agreements and options
to reduce exposure to downward price fluctuations on its natural gas and crude
oil production. The Company does not engage in speculative transactions. During
1999, the Company used price and basis swap agreements to hedge its exposure to
possible declines in natural gas and crude oil prices. Additional information
concerning hedging activities of the Company during 1999 is set forth in
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations" and in Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained
elsewhere in this Report.
COMPETITION
The Company operates in a highly competitive environment with respect to
exploring, developing and acquiring reserves, marketing oil and natural gas and
securing trained personnel. Many of the Company's larger competitors possess and
employ financial and personnel resources substantially greater than those
available to it. Such companies may be better able to financially withstand the
costs of unsuccessful exploration and development activities. Such companies may
also be able to pay more for productive oil and natural gas properties and to
define, evaluate, bid for and purchase a greater number of properties than the
Company's financial or personnel resources permit. The Company's ability to
acquire additional reserves in the future will be dependent upon its ability to
evaluate and select suitable properties and to consummate transactions in a
highly competitive environment. In addition, there is substantial competition
for capital available for investment in the oil and natural gas industry. There
can be no assurance that the Company will be able to compete successfully in the
future in acquiring reserves, developing reserves, marketing hydrocarbons,
attracting and retaining quality personnel, and raising additional capital.
TITLE TO PROPERTIES
The Company's properties, in addition to being mortgaged to secure the
Notes, are subject to royalty interests, liens incident to operating agreements,
liens for current taxes and other customary burdens, including other mineral
encumbrances and restrictions. The Company does not believe that any mortgage,
lien or other burden materially interferes with the use of such properties in
the operation of its business.
The Company believes that it has satisfactory title to or rights in all of
its producing properties. As is customary in the oil and natural gas industry,
minimal investigation of title is made at the time of acquisition of undeveloped
properties. Title investigation is made, and title opinions of local counsel are
generally obtained before commencement of drilling operations or at least in
connection with the preparation of division orders when production is obtained
and the revenues therefrom are allocated.
11
<PAGE> 13
EMPLOYEES
As of December 31, 1999, the Company had 47 employees. The Company's staff
includes employees experienced in acquisitions, geology, geophysics, petroleum
engineering, land acquisition and management, finance and accounting. None of
the Company's employees are represented by a union. The Company has not
experienced an interruption in its operations due to any labor dispute and
believes that its working relationships with its employees are satisfactory.
REGULATION
The Company's operations are subject to extensive and continually changing
regulation, as legislation affecting the oil and natural gas industry is under
constant review for amendment and expansion. Many departments and agencies, both
federal and state, are authorized by statute to issue and have issued rules and
regulations binding on the oil and natural gas industry and its individual
participants. The failure to comply with such rules and regulations can result
in substantial penalties. The regulatory burden on the oil and natural gas
industry increases the Company's cost of doing business and, consequently,
affects its profitability. However, the Company does not believe that it is
affected in a significantly different manner by these regulations than are its
competitors in the oil and natural gas industry. Because of the numerous and
complex federal and state statutes and regulations that may affect the Company,
directly or indirectly, the following discussion of certain statutes and
regulations should not be relied upon as an exhaustive review of all matters
affecting the Company's operations.
Transportation and Production
Transportation and Sale of Natural Gas and Crude Oil. Sales of natural gas,
crude oil and condensate ("Products") can be made by the Company at market
prices not subject at this time to price controls. The price that the Company
receives from the sale of these Products is affected by the ability to transport
and cost of transporting the Products to market. Under applicable laws, the
Federal Energy Regulation Commission ("FERC") regulates both the construction of
pipeline facilities and the transportation of Products in interstate commerce.
Regulation of Drilling and Production. Drilling and production operations
of the Company are subject to regulation under a wide range of state and federal
statutes, rules, orders and regulations. State and federal statutes and
regulations govern, among other matters, the amounts and types of substances and
materials that may be released into the environment, the discharge and
disposition of waste materials, the reclamation and abandonment of wells and
facility sites and remediation of contaminated sites, and require permits for
drilling operations, drilling bonds and reports concerning operations. The
federal leases are administered by the Bureau of Land Management ("BLM") and the
Minerals Management Service ("MMS"), which are administered, along with the
Bureau of Indian Affairs, by the federal Department of the Interior. These
leases contain relatively standard terms and require compliance with detailed
MMS and BLM regulations and orders, which are subject to change. In addition to
permits required by other federal agencies (such as the Coast Guard, the Army
Corps of Engineers and the Environmental Protection Agency), lessees must obtain
a permit from the MMS or BLM prior to commencement of offshore or onshore
drilling. States in which the Company owns and operates properties have varying
laws and regulations governing conservation matters, including provisions for
the unitization or pooling of oil and natural gas properties, the establishment
of maximum rates of production from oil and natural gas wells and the regulation
of the spacing, plugging and abandonment of wells. Many states also restrict
production to the market demand for oil and natural gas and several states have
indicated interest in revising applicable regulations. The effect of these
regulations is to limit the amount of oil and natural gas the Company can
produce from its wells and to limit the number of wells or the locations at
which the Company can drill. Moreover, each state generally imposes an ad
valorem, production or severance tax with respect to the production and sale of
crude oil, natural gas and gas liquids within its jurisdiction.
Environmental Regulations
General. The various federal environmental laws, including the National
Environmental Policy Act; the Clean Air Act of 1990, as amended ("CAA"); Oil
Pollution Act of 1990, as amended ("OPA"); Water Pollution Control Act, as
amended ("FWPCA"); the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act as amended
("RCRA"); the Toxic Substances Control
12
<PAGE> 14
Act; and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability
Act, as amended ("CERCLA"), and the various state and local environmental laws,
and the regulations adopted pursuant to such law, governing the discharge of
materials into the environment, or otherwise relating to the protection of the
environment, continue to be taken seriously by the Company. In particular, the
Company's drilling, development and production operations, its activities in
connection with storage and transportation of crude oil and other liquid
hydrocarbons and its use of facilities for treating, processing or otherwise
handling hydrocarbons and wastes therefrom are subject to stringent
environmental regulation, and violations are subject to reporting requirements,
civil penalties and criminal sanctions. As with the industry generally,
compliance with existing regulations increases the Company's overall cost of
business. The increased costs are not reasonably ascertainable. Such areas
affected include unit production expenses primarily related to the control and
limitation of air emissions and the disposal of produced water, capital costs to
drill exploration and development wells resulting from expenses primarily
related to the management and disposal of drilling fluids and other oil and
natural gas exploration wastes and capital costs to construct, maintain and
upgrade equipment and facilities and plug and abandon inactive well sites and
pits.
Environmental regulations historically have been subject to frequent change
by regulatory authorities, and the Company is unable to predict the ongoing cost
of compliance with these laws and regulations or the future impact of such
regulations on its operations. However, the Company does not believe that
changes to these regulations will materially adversely affect the Company's
competitive position because its competitors are similarly affected. A discharge
of hydrocarbons or hazardous substances into the environment could subject the
Company to substantial expense, including both the cost to comply with
applicable regulations pertaining to the remediation of releases of hazardous
substances into the environment and claims by neighboring landowners and other
third parties for personal injury and property damage. The Company maintains
insurance, which may provide protection to some extent against environmental
liabilities, but the coverage of such insurance and the amount of protection
afforded thereby cannot be predicted with respect to any particular possible
environmental liability and may not be adequate to protect the Company from
substantial expense.
The OPA and regulations thereunder impose a variety of regulations on
"responsible parties" related to the prevention of oil spills and liability for
damages resulting from such spills in United States waters. A "responsible
party" includes the owner or operator of an onshore facility, vessel, or
pipeline, or the lessee or permittee of the area in which an offshore facility
is located. The OPA assigns liability to each responsible party for oil removal
costs and a variety of public and private damages. The FWPCA imposes
restrictions and strict controls regarding the discharge of produced waters and
other oil and natural gas wastes into navigable waters. State laws for the
control of water pollution also provide varying civil, criminal and
administrative penalties and impose liabilities in the case of a discharge of
petroleum or its derivatives, or other hazardous substances, into state waters.
In addition, the Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") has promulgated
regulations that require many oil and natural gas production operations to
obtain permits to discharge storm water runoff.
The CAA requires or will require most industrial operations in the United
States to incur capital expenditures in order to meet air emission control
standards developed by the EPA and state environmental agencies. Although no
assurances can be given, the Company believes implementation of such amendments
will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of
operations. RCRA is the principal federal statute governing the treatment,
storage and disposal of hazardous wastes. RCRA imposes stringent operating
requirements (and liability for failure to meet such requirements) on a person
who is either a "generator" or "transporter" of hazardous waste or an "owner" or
"operator" of a hazardous waste treatment, storage or disposal facility. At
present, RCRA includes a statutory exemption that allows oil and natural gas
exploration and production wastes to be classified as non-hazardous waste. As a
result, the Company is not required to comply with a substantial portion of
RCRA's requirements because the Company's operations generate minimal quantities
of hazardous wastes.
13
<PAGE> 15
CERCLA, also known as "Superfund", imposes liability, without regard to
fault or the legality of the original act, on certain classes of persons that
contributed to the release of a "hazardous substance" into the environment.
These persons include the "owner" or "operator" of the site and companies that
disposed or arranged for the disposal of the hazardous substances found at the
site. CERCLA also authorizes the EPA and, in some instances, third parties to
act in response to threats to the public health or the environment and to seek
to recover from the responsible classes of persons the costs they incur. In the
course of its ordinary operations, the Company may generate waste that may fall
within CERCLA's definition of a "hazardous substance". As a result, the Company
may be jointly and severally liable under CERCLA or under analogous state laws
for all or part of the costs required to clean up sites at which such wastes
have been disposed. The Company currently owns or leases, and has in the past
owned or leased, numerous properties that for many years have been used for the
exploration and production of oil and natural gas. Although the Company has
utilized operating and disposal practices that were standard in the industry at
the time, hydrocarbons or other wastes may have been disposed of or released on
or under the properties owned or leased by the Company or on or under other
locations where such wastes have been taken for disposal. In addition, many of
these properties have been operated by third parties whose actions with respect
to the treatment and disposal or release of hydrocarbons or other wastes were
not under the Company's control. These properties and wastes disposed thereon
may be subject to CERCLA, RCRA and analogous state laws. Under such laws, the
Company could be required to remove or remediate previously disposed wastes
(including wastes disposed of or released by prior owners or operators), to
clean up contaminated property (including contaminated groundwater) or to
perform remedial plugging operations to prevent future contamination.
CAUTION AS TO FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Statements contained in this Report and other materials filed or to be
filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (as well as
information included in oral or other written statements made or to be made by
the Company or its representatives) that are forward-looking in nature are
intended to be "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, relating to matters such as anticipated
operating and financial performance, business prospects, developments and
results of the Company. Actual performance, prospects, developments and results
may differ materially from any or all anticipated results due to economic
conditions and other risks, uncertainties and circumstances partly or totally
outside the control of the Company, including rates of inflation, natural gas
prices, uncertainty of reserve estimates, rates and timing of future production
of oil and gas, exploratory and development activities, acquisition risks and
activities, changes in the level and timing of future costs and expenses related
to drilling and operating activities and those risks described under "Risk
Factors" below.
Words such as "anticipated," "expect," "estimate," "project" and similar
expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking
statements include the risks described in "Risk Factors".
RISK FACTORS
The Company cautions that the following risks identified in risk factors
could affect its actual results in the future in addition to "Estimated Proved
Reserves-Uncertainties in Estimating Reserves and Future Net Cash Flows"
included elsewhere in this Report.
Substantial Leverage; Inability to Service Debt; Lack of Liquidity;
Substantial Capital Requirements. As of December 31, 1999, the Company had
$268.5 million principal amount of debt outstanding, stockholders' deficit of
approximately $76.3 million and cash on hand of approximately $10.4 million
(excluding restricted cash of $7.5 million). The Company has principal and
interest payments of $24.2 million (includes the impact of the first quarter
2000 retirement of $0.3 million of the Company's Securities) due in April 2000.
The Company has significant debt outstanding relative to its asset base and cash
flows. The ability of the Company to service such debt is primarily dependent on
its operational cash flows which are dependent on various factors outside of its
control, including the oil and natural gas commodity markets. To the extent such
factors negatively affect cash flows, the ability of the Company to meet its
debt obligations may be impaired. Therefore, there can be no assurance that the
Company will have sufficient funds to meet all of its future debt obligations.
14
<PAGE> 16
Historically, the Company has financed its operational activities
(including acquisitions, exploration and development of oil and natural gas
properties) primarily through the issuance of debt and equity securities,
through various credit facilities and with internally generated funds. The
Company currently has plans for significant capital expenditures to continue its
operational activities. However, the Company does not currently have ready
access to additional sources of financing of such activities outside of
internally generated cash flows and proceeds from asset sales. Therefore, no
assurance can be given that the Company will have adequate funds available to
fund its operational activities and carry out its strategy. See "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations --
Liquidity and Capital Resources".
Depletion of Reserves; Necessity of Successful Exploration and
Development. Producing oil and natural gas reservoirs generally are
characterized by declining production rates that vary depending upon reservoir
characteristics and other factors. The Company's future oil and natural gas
reserves and production, and, therefore, cash flow and income, are highly
dependent upon the Company's success in efficiently developing its current
reserves and acquiring additional reserves that are economically recoverable.
Volatility of Oil, Natural Gas and Natural Gas Liquids Prices. The
Company's financial results are affected significantly by the prices received
for its oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids production. Historically, the
markets for oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids have been volatile. The
prices received by the Company for its oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids
production and the levels of such production are subject to government
regulation, legislation and policies. The Company's future financial condition
and results of operations will depend, in part, upon the prices received for its
oil and natural gas production, as well as the costs of finding, acquiring,
developing and producing reserves.
Operating Hazards and Uninsured Risks. Oil and gas drilling activities are
subject to numerous risks, many of which are uninsurable, including the risk
that no commercially viable oil or natural gas production will be obtained; many
of such risks are beyond the Company's control. The decision to purchase,
explore or develop a prospect or property will depend in part on the evaluation
of data obtained through geophysical and geological analyses, production data
and engineering studies, the results of which are often inconclusive or subject
to varying interpretations. The cost of drilling, completing and operating wells
is often uncertain, and overruns in budgeted expenditures are common risks that
can make a particular project uneconomical. Technical problems encountered in
actual drilling, completion and workover activities can delay such activity and
add substantial costs to a project. Further, drilling may be curtailed, delayed
or canceled as a result of many factors, including title problems, weather
conditions, compliance with government permitting requirements, shortages of or
delays in obtaining equipment, reductions in product prices and limitations in
the market for products.
The availability of a ready market for the Company's oil and natural gas
production also depends on a number of factors, including the demand for and
supply of oil and natural gas and the proximity of reserves to pipelines or
trucking and terminal facilities. Natural gas wells may be partially or totally
shut in for lack of a market or because of inadequacy or unavailability of
natural gas pipeline or gathering system capacity.
The Company's oil and natural gas business also is subject to all of the
operating risks associated with the drilling for and production of oil and
natural gas, including, but not limited to, uncontrollable flows of oil, natural
gas, brine or well fluids into the environment (including groundwater and
shoreline contamination), blowouts, cratering, mechanical difficulties, fires,
explosions, pollution and other risks, any of which could result in substantial
losses to the Company. Although the Company maintains insurance at levels that
it believes are consistent with industry practices, it is not fully insured
against all risks. Losses and liabilities arising from uninsured and
underinsured events could have a material adverse effect on the financial
condition and operations of the Company.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Contour Energy Co.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Contour
Energy Co. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 1998 and 1999,
and the related consolidated statements of income (loss), cash flows, and
changes in stockholders' deficit for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 1999. 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 audit 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, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31,
1998 and 1999, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of
the three years in the period ended December 31, 1999 in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

CONTOUR ENERGY CO.
(FORMERLY KELLEY OIL & GAS CORPORATION) AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 -- INDUSTRY CONDITIONS AND LIQUIDITY
In 1999, Contour Energy Co. (formerly Kelley Oil & Gas Corporation) ("the
Company") undertook several strategic actions in response to the severe downturn
in the industry in 1998 caused by low commodity prices and the closing of the
capital markets to smaller oil and gas companies. These actions, described
below, were designed to increase the near-term liquidity of the Company, provide
capital for its ongoing capital expenditure programs and establish a stronger
base for future growth.
In April 1999, the Company entered into an Exploration and Development
Agreement with Phillips Petroleum Company ("Phillips") relating to certain of
the Company's interests in the Bryceland, West Bryceland and Sailes fields in
north Louisiana ("Phillips Transaction"). Pursuant to the agreement, the Company
(1) received an $83 million cash payment (2) retained a 42 Bcf, 8-year
volumetric overriding royalty interest (the "VORI") and a 1% override on the
excess of production above such royalty interest and (3) retained 25% of its
working interest in the Cotton Valley formation. In addition, Phillips, will at
its risk and expense, operate, develop, exploit and explore the properties
thereby relieving the Company of significant operating, exploration and
development costs in the future. The transaction closed on May 17, 1999. The
Company recognized a gain of approximately $25.9 million in 1999 related to this
transaction.
In April 1999, the Company negotiated a private offering of $135 million
principal amount, 14% Senior Secured Notes (the "Notes"). The Notes are secured
by a first lien on substantially all of the Company's proved oil and natural gas
properties remaining after the sale to Phillips and guaranteed by three entities
wholly-owned by the Company. In accordance with the Notes indenture, on June 30,
1999, the Company funded $37.5 million to repurchase $35 million principal
amount of the Notes at a repurchase price equal to 104% of the principal amount,
plus accrued and unpaid interest and commitment fees to the date of the
repurchase.
On May 17, 1999, the Company funded $28.5 million to repurchase $46.1
million of the outstanding principal amounts of its 7 7/8% Convertible
Subordinated Notes due December 15, 1999 and its 8 1/2% Convertible Subordinated
Debentures due April 1, 2000 (collectively, the "Securities") at a price equal
to $590 per $1,000 principal amount (not including accrued interest paid of $1.2
million).
In addition, on May 17, 1999 the Company repaid all borrowings outstanding
under its revolving credit facility of $115.5 million plus accrued interest and
terminated the revolving credit facility and funded cash collateral for a $1.5
million letter of credit which was subsequently increased to $7.5 million. The
Company used net proceeds remaining from the transactions for general corporate
purposes. In 1999, the Company recognized an extraordinary gain of $11.1 million
related to debt repurchases and refinancings, comprised of: (i) a net gain on
the Securities tender offer and other debt retirements of $16.0 million, reduced
by, (ii) a $1.4 million premium on the $35 million Notes repurchase and the
proportionate write-off of debt issue costs of $2.4 million and (iii) the
write-off of credit facility debt issue costs of $1.1 million.
The remaining outstanding amounts of the Company's 8 1/2% Convertible
Subordinated Debentures of $8.4 million (including the effect of $0.3 million of
retirements in the first quarter of 2000) are due on April 1, 2000. In addition,
the Company has interest payments due in April and October, 2000 of $15.7
million and $15.4 million, respectively. In March 2000, the Company sold a
portion of the VORI (the "VORI Sale"). The net proceeds from the sale
approximated $20 million. Since the portion of the VORI sold (approximately
16.5 Bcf) represents production commencing April 1, 2003, the VORI Sale will not
impact the Company's operating cash flows until 2003.
The Company has received the benefits of a general increase in the level of
commodity prices over the past several months. The Company believes that this
increase, combined with the cash on hand subsequent to the sale of a portion of
the VORI will sustain its operations over the near term. However, the commodity
markets are volatile and there is no certainty that current oil and natural gas
prices can be sustained at these levels. In addition, the Company continues to
have significant

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
debt outstanding relative to its asset base and pays a high portion of its
cash flow to service such debt. Furthermore, the Company does not have ready
access to incremental sources of capital to supplement its operational
requirements. The combination of the factors described herein and industry
conditions beyond its control, may adversely offset the Company's financial
condition, results of operations and cash flows.
NOTE 2 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization and Operations. Contour Energy Co. (formerly Kelley Oil & Gas
Corporation), a Delaware Corporation, its corporate subsidiaries and
proportionate partnership interests are referred to herein as the "Company". The
Company is an independent oil & gas company engaged in the exploration,
development and acquisition of domestic oil and gas properties, principally in
the Gulf Coast region and northern Louisiana.
Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include
the accounts of (i) the Company, (ii) its corporate subsidiaries, all of which
are wholly-owned, and (iii) the Company's indirect 100% owned partnership,
Kelley Operating Company, Ltd., and (iv) its proportionate interest in
development drilling programs sponsored by Kelley Oil Corporation to conduct
drilling operations on properties of Kelley Operating Company, Ltd. ("1992 DDP"
and "1994 DDP"). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have
been eliminated in consolidation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents. The Company considers all highly liquid
investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to
be cash equivalents. Cash payments attributable to interest on all indebtedness
aggregated $19.6 million, $26.5 million and $34.1 million for the years ended
December 31, 1997, 1998 and 1999, respectively.
Financial Instruments. The Company's financial instruments consist of cash
and cash equivalents, receivables, payables, long term debt and commodity
derivatives (see Note 10). As of December 31, 1999, the estimated fair value of
the Company's long-term debt was $181.2 million. The fair value of such
long-term debt has been based on estimated market prices indicative of potential
transactions between a "willing buyer" and a "willing seller". The carrying
amount of the Company's other financial instruments approximates fair value.
Oil and Gas Properties. All of the Company's interests in its oil and gas
properties are located in the United States and are accounted for using the
successful efforts method. Under the successful efforts method, the costs of
successful wells, development dry holes and leases containing productive
reserves are capitalized and amortized on a unit-of-production basis over the
life of the related reserves. Estimated future abandonment and site restoration
costs, net of anticipated salvage values, are amortized on a unit-of-production
basis over the life of the related reserves. Exploratory drilling costs are
initially capitalized pending determination of proved reserves but are charged
to expense if no proved reserves are found. Other exploration costs, including
geological and geophysical expenses, leasehold expiration costs and delay
rentals, are expensed as incurred.
Unproved leasehold costs are capitalized and are not amortized pending an
evaluation of the exploration results. If unproved properties are determined to
be productive, the related costs are transferred to proved oil and gas
properties. If unproved properties are determined not to be productive, or if
such properties have been otherwise impaired, the excess carrying value is
charged to expense. Unproved properties are assessed quarterly for impairment in
value, with any impairment charged to expense. The Company recognized non-cash
impairment charges of $4.1 million related to unproved properties for the year
ended December 31, 1998.
The Company's proved oil and gas properties are reviewed for indications of
impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of
its oil and gas properties may not be recoverable. As a levels. In addition, the
Company continues to have significant result of a decline in its proved reserves
at January 1, 1999 from year-earlier levels, the Company performed an assessment
of the fair value of its oil and gas properties indicating an impairment should
be recognized as of year end. Under this analysis, the fair value for the
Company's proved oil and gas properties was estimated using escalated pricing
and present value discount factors reflecting risk assessments. Based on this
analysis, the Company recognized noncash impairment charges against the carrying
values of its proved oil and gas properties aggregating $21.6 million for the
year ended December 31, 1998.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
Other Property and Equipment. The costs of pipelines and other
transportation assets are depreciated using the straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives of the related assets. Furniture, fixtures and equipment
are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives of three to five years. Maintenance and repairs are
charged to expense as incurred.
Other Non-Current Assets. Other non-current assets consist primarily of
debt issue costs, net of accumulated amortization. These costs are amortized
over the anticipated term of the related debt.
Income Taxes. Deferred income taxes are provided on a liability method
whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are established for the difference
between the financial reporting and income tax basis of assets and liabilities
as well as operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets are
reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more
likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be
realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of
changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
Oil and Gas Revenues. The Company recognizes oil and gas revenue from its
interests in producing wells as oil and gas is produced and sold from those
wells. Oil and gas sold is not significantly different from the Company's
production entitlement. Revenues from gas marketing, net of cost of gas sold,
are included in oil and gas revenues and amounted to $2.8 million, $1.3 million
and $1.4 million for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1998 and 1999,
respectively.
Earnings per Share. The basic loss per common share before extraordinary
item and the basic loss per common share as shown on the Consolidated Statements
of Income (Loss) reflects net income (loss) before extraordinary item and net
income (loss), respectively, cumulative preferred stock dividends, whether or
not declared, less the excess of the fair value of the Company's preferred stock
exchange offer (see Note 5) over the fair value of the original terms ($1.6
million at July 28, 1999), divided by the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during the respective years. The extraordinary gain per
common share for the year ended December 31, 1999 was $.86. In calculating
diluted income (loss) per share, common shares issuable under stock options and
upon conversion of convertible subordinated debentures and convertible preferred
stock are added to the weighted average common shares outstanding when dilutive.
For the years ended December 31, 1997, 1998 and 1999, all potentially dilutive
securities are anti-dilutive and therefore are not included in the EPS
calculations. Potentially dilutive securities which could impact EPS in the
future include stock options granted to employees to purchase 0.4 million common
shares, the Company's 8 1/2% Convertible Subordinated Debentures which can be
converted into 45 thousand common shares and the Company's $2.625 Convertible
Preferred Stock ("Preferred Stock") which can be can be converted into 0.5
million common shares.
Stock Based Compensation. The Company applies Accounting Principles Board
Opinion No. 25 ("APB 25") and related Interpretations in accounting for stock
option and purchase plans. Under APB 25, compensation expense, if any, is based
on the intrinsic value of the equity instrument at the measurement date. The
Company has not recognized any compensation expense because the exercise price
of employee stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the
date of the grant.
Derivatives and Hedging Activities. See Note 10 for a discussion of the
Company's accounting policies related to hedging activities. In June 1998, the
Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities" ("SFAS 133") which was amended in June 1999 by SFAS No. 137,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities -- Deferral of the
Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133 -- an amendment of FASB Statement No.
133." SFAS No. 133, as amended, is effective for fiscal years beginning after
June 15, 2000, and establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative
instruments and hedging activities that require an entity to recognize all
derivatives as an asset or liability measured at its fair value. Depending on
the intended use of the derivative, changes in its fair value will be reported
in the period of change as either a component of earnings or a component of
other comprehensive income. Retroactive application to periods prior to adoption
is not allowed. The Company has not quantified the impact of adoption on its
financial statements.

CONTOUR ENERGY CO.
(FORMERLY KELLEY OIL & GAS CORPORATION) AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
Comprehensive Income. In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income" ("SFAS 130"). SFAS 130 establishes standards for reporting
and displaying comprehensive income and its components. SFAS 130 is effective
for periods beginning after December 15, 1997. The purpose of reporting
comprehensive income is to report a measure of all changes in equity of an
enterprise that results from recognized transactions and other economic events
of the period other than transactions with owners in their capacity as owners.
As of December 31, 1999, there are no adjustments ("Other Comprehensive Income")
to net income in deriving comprehensive income.
Risks and Uncertainties. 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.
Changes in Presentation. Certain financial statement items in 1997 and 1998
have been reclassified to conform to the 1999 presentation.
NOTE 3 -- ACQUISITION OF OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES
SPR Acquisition. On December 1, 1997, the Company purchased from SCANA
Petroleum Resources, Inc. ("SPR") substantially all of SPR's assets, including
its oil and gas properties, exploratory leasehold interests and associated
obligations, in exchange for approximately $110 million ("SPR Acquisition"),
subject to adjustment as provided by the Purchase and Sale Agreement between the
Company and SPR. The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of
accounting, and accordingly, the purchase price has been preliminarily allocated
to the assets acquired based on estimated fair values at the date of
acquisition. The operating results of the assets acquired from SPR have been
included in Contour's Statements of Income (Loss) since December 1, 1997. The
pro forma information shown below assumes that the acquisition occurred at the
beginning of 1997. Adjustments have been made to reflect changes in the
Company's results from the revenues and direct operating expenses of the
producing properties acquired from SPR, additional interest expense to finance
the acquisition, depreciation, depletion and amortization based on assigned fair
values to the assets acquired and general and administrative expenses incurred
from hiring additional employees. The unaudited pro forma financial data are not
necessarily indicative of financial results that would have occurred had the SPR
Acquisition occurred January 1, 1997, and should not be viewed as indicative of
operations in future periods.

14% Senior Secured Notes. In April 1999, the Company negotiated a private
offering of $135 million principal amount, 14% Senior Secured Notes (the
"Notes"). The Notes are secured by a first lien on substantially all of the
Company's proved oil and natural gas properties remaining after the Phillips
Transaction and guaranteed by three entities wholly-owned by the Company. In
accordance with the Notes indenture, on June 30, 1999, the Company funded $37.5
million to repurchase $35 million principal amount of the Notes at a repurchase
price equal to 104% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest
and commitment fees to the date of the repurchase.
In September 1999, the Company completed an exchange of publicly registered
14% Senior Secured Notes, Series B for all of the then outstanding Series A
notes. The Series B notes are substantially identical to the Series A notes. The
Notes mature in 2002 and 2003 at premiums ranging from 103% to 105% of their
stated principal amount. The Notes are redeemable at the Company's option on or
after April 15, 2001 at 105% of the stated principal amount. Beginning July 15,
2002, and thereafter on a quarterly basis, the Company will be obligated to
redeem $2.0 million of the stated principal amount of the Notes at a redemption
price equal to 103% of the stated principal amount. The Company will be
obligated to offer to repurchase a portion of the Notes at a repurchase price
equal to 104% of the stated principal amount if the Company's oil and gas
revenues, as determined by independent petroleum engineers on a quarterly basis,
fall below defined levels. In the event of certain other asset sales, the
Company will be obligated to repurchase a portion of the Notes at a repurchase
price equal to 105% of the stated principal amount. Upon a change of control, as
defined, the Company is obligated to offer to repurchase each holder's Notes at
a repurchase price equal to 101% of the stated principal amount. The indenture
for the notes contains conditions and limitations, including but not limited to,
restrictions on (1) payments of cash dividends, (2) redemptions of capital stock
for cash, (3) repayments of subordinated indebtedness with cash and (4) making
investments, including capital expenditures.
Interest expense on the Notes is payable semi-annually on each April 15 and
October 15. The Company is recognizing interest expense using an effective rate
of 15.3%.
10 3/8% Senior Subordinated Notes. In connection with the refinancing of
the 13 1/2% Senior Notes, the Company issued an aggregate principal amount of
$125.0 million of 10 3/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2006 (the "10 3/8%
Senior Subordinated Notes"). The 10 3/8% Senior Subordinated Notes are
redeemable at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, at redemption
prices declining from 105.19% in 2001 to 100% in 2003 and thereafter. The
10 3/8% Senior Subordinated Notes represent unsecured obligations of the Company
and are subordinate in right of payment to all existing and future senior
indebtedness. The indenture for the notes contains conditions and limitations,
including but not limited to restrictions on additional indebtedness, payment of
dividends, redemption of capital stock, and certain mergers and consolidations.
The holder of the 10 3/8% Senior Subordinated Notes also can require the Company
to repurchase the notes at 101% of the principal amount upon a Change of

of the Company and Kelley Operating Company, Ltd., an indirect wholly-owned
partnership of the Company are guarantors of the 10 3/8% Senior Subordinated
Notes.
On February 3, 1997, the Company completed an exchange of $125.0 million
aggregate principal amount of publicly registered 10 3/8% Senior Subordinated
Notes, Series B, for all of the then outstanding Series A notes. The Series B
notes were substantially identical to the Series A notes.
In May 1998, the Company sold $30.0 million principal amount of the
Company's 10 3/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2006, Series C ("Series C
Notes") at a cash price of $1,015 per $1,000 principal amount. The net proceeds
received were used to reduce outstanding borrowings under the Company's bank
credit facility. The Series C Notes are redeemable at the option of the Company,
in whole or in part, at redemption prices declining ratably from 105.19% on
October 15, 2001 to 100% at October 15, 2003 and thereafter. The Company may
redeem up to 35% of the original principal amount of the Series C Notes before
October 15, 1999 at 110.38% with the proceeds of an equity offering (provided
that either at least $18.0 million aggregate principal amount of such notes
remains outstanding or such redemption retires such notes in their entirety).
The Series C Notes represent unsecured obligations of the Company and are
subordinate in right of payment to all existing and future senior indebtedness.
The indenture for the notes contains conditions and limitations, including but
not limited to restrictions on additional indebtedness, payment of dividends,
redemption of capital stock, and certain mergers and consolidations. The holders
of the Series C Notes also can require the Company to repurchase the notes at
101% of the principal amount upon a Change of Control, as defined. Kelley Oil
Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and Kelley Operating
Company, Ltd., an indirect wholly owned partnership of the Company, are
guarantors of the Series C Notes.
The Series C Notes were sold pursuant to Rule 144A of the Securities Act of
1933. In issuing the Series C Notes, the Company agreed to use its best efforts
to register under the Securities Act notes identical in terms to the Series C
Notes ("Series D Notes"). The Company completed the exchange of the Series C
Notes for the Series D Notes on November 12, 1998.
7 7/8% Convertible Subordinated Notes and 8 1/2% Convertible Subordinated
Debentures. In December 1999, the Company paid off the remaining principal of
$3.5 million and interest of $0.1 million on its outstanding 7 7/8% Convertible
Subordinated Notes. At December 31, 1999, the Company had outstanding 8 1/2%
Convertible Subordinated Debentures due April 1, 2000 (the "8 1/2% Subordinated
Debentures") in the aggregate principal amount of $8.6 million (the
"Subordinated Debt"). Each $1,000 face value amount of the 8 1/2% Subordinated
Debentures is convertible into 5.1864 shares of the Company's Common Stock or
2.5932 shares of the Company's Common Stock and 5.411 shares of Preferred Stock.
In the fourth quarter of 1999, the Company retired $1.0 million face amount of
its 8 1/2% Subordinated Debentures. The settlement payments included principal
amounts of $0.9 million and accrued interest of $10,000 and the fourth quarter
of 1999 includes an extraordinary gain of $0.1 million for these transactions.
In the first quarter of 2000, the Company retired $0.3 million face amount of
its 8 1/2% Subordinated Debentures. The settlement payments included principal
amounts of $0.2 million and accrued interest of $7,000.

NOTE 5 -- STOCKHOLDERS' DEFICIT
On June 28, 1999, the Company announced that its board of directors
approved changing the Company's name to Contour Energy Co. and its NASDAQ ticker
symbol to CONCC. Concurrent with the name change, the Company established the
authorized capital stock of the Company at 22 million shares, 20 million of
which were designated as common stock and 2 million as preferred stock, and
effected a 1 for 10 reverse stock split, reducing the total outstanding shares
of common stock from approximately 126 million to approximately 12.6 million
(without giving effect to the preferred stock exchange offer described in the
following paragraph). These actions were consented to by the Company's majority
stockholder and became effective on July 30, 1999. All historical share and per
share data appearing in this document have been restated to reflect this reverse
stock split.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
On August 30, 1999, at market close, the Company's shares of common stock
and convertible Preferred Stock, which traded under the symbols of CONCC and
CONCP, were delisted from the Nasdaq SmallCap Market. These actions were taken
as a result of the Company's failure to meet the requirements for continued
listing on this exchange. On August 31, 1999, at market open, the Company's
stock began trading on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbols of CONC and
CONCP.
Contour Stock Purchase. In February 1996, the Company issued 4.8 million
shares of its Common Stock at $10.00 per share to Contour Production Company
L.L.C. ("Contour") upon the closing of a Stock Purchase Agreement between the
Company and Contour (the "Contour Transaction"). The newly issued shares
represented 49.8% of the Company's voting power. 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 law, 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 three other new executives named
by him, (iv) adopted a nonqualified stock option plan for the new executives
other than Mr. Bookout, (v) amended its existing incentive stock option plans,
(vi) reduced the size of its board of directors (the "Board") to seven members
and reconstituted the Board with three continuing directors and four designees
of Contour and (vii) replaced its credit facility.
Contour Option. Under the Contour Option Agreement, the Company granted
Contour an option (the "Contour Option") to purchase up to 2.7 million shares
(the "Maximum Option Number") of Common Stock at $10.00 per share (subject to
antidilution adjustments) upon satisfaction of certain conditions, including the
absence of any Company debt repurchase or redemption obligations as a result of
the purchase. Contour voluntarily exercised its option in full on December 1,
1997 to partially fund the SPR Acquisition.
Preferred Stock. The Company is authorized to issue up to 2 million shares
of $1.50 par value preferred stock. At December 31, 1998, 1,733,628 shares of
preferred stock were outstanding. On June 28, 1999, the Company began an offer
to exchange 15 shares of its common stock (or 1.5 shares on a post-split basis)
for each share of its $2.625 convertible exchangeable preferred stock
("Preferred Stock"). Pursuant to the exchange offer, 368,633 shares of Preferred
Stock were tendered representing approximately 21% of the total Preferred Stock
outstanding. In July 1999, the shares were exchanged for 552,950 shares of newly
issued common stock of the Company (after giving effect to the 1 for 10 reverse
stock split), increasing the Company's shares of outstanding common stock to
approximately 13.2 million. With the exchange, the Company eliminated dividend
arrearages of approximately $1.5 million.
In January 1996, the Company suspended the payment of the quarterly
Preferred Stock dividend scheduled for February 1, 1996 to conserve cash. On
April 15, 1997, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a dividend of
$2.625 per preferred share (approximately $4.6 million), which was paid on May
1, 1997. On April 14, 1998, the Company declared a dividend of $2.625 per share
of Preferred Stock (approximately $4.6 million), which was paid on April 30,
1998. The Company has not declared the quarterly dividends of $0.65625 per
preferred share for February 1, 1998, May 1, 1998, August 1, 1998, November 1,
1998, February 1, 1999, May 1, 1999, August 1, 1999, November 1, 1999 and
February 1, 2000, aggregating approximately $8.1 million (after giving effect to
the preferred stock exchange in the third quarter of 1999), covering nine
quarters. Future dividends on the Preferred Stock are prohibited under the
indenture governing the Notes. No interest is payable on Preferred Stock
arrearages; however, the terms of the Preferred Stock enable holders, voting
separately as a class, to elect two additional directors to the Board at each
meeting of stockholders at which directors are to be elected during any period
when Preferred Stock dividends are in arrears in an aggregate amount equal to at
least six quarterly dividends, whether or not consecutive. Since the Company has
not paid dividends on the Preferred Stock for a period of nine quarters, the
holders of the Preferred Stock, as a group, have the right to elect two
additional directors to the Company's Board of Directors. See "Legal
Proceedings."
Each share of Preferred Stock is convertible, at the holder's option, into
.347 shares of Common Stock, equivalent to a conversion price of $72.00 per
share of Common Stock relative to the $25 per share liquidation preference of
the Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Conversion Price").

The weighted average fair value of options granted during 1997, 1998 and
1999 was $15.10, $14.60 and $4.63, respectively. The fair value of the options
granted was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes
option-pricing model with the following assumptions: weighted average risk-free
interest rate of 6.4% for 1997, 5.2% for 1998 and 6.6% for 1999; an expected
volatility of 60% for 1997, 78% for 1998 and 106% for 1999; expected life of
five years and no dividend yield for all three years.
The Company applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 and related
Interpretations in accounting for stock option and purchase plans. Accordingly,
no compensation cost has been recognized for the stock option plans. Had
compensation cost been recognized based upon the fair market value at the grant
dates for awards under those plans consistent with the method of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock Based
compensation", the Company's net loss and earnings per share for the years ended
December 31, 1997, 1998 and 1999 would have been as reflected in the pro forma

not had a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition of the
Company.
Litigation. The Company is involved in various claims and lawsuits
incidental to its business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate liability
thereunder, if any, will not have a material effect on the financial statements

NOTE 10 -- HEDGING ACTIVITIES
The Company periodically uses forward sales contracts, natural gas and
crude oil price swap agreements, natural gas basis swap agreements and options
to reduce exposure to downward price fluctuations on its natural gas and crude
oil production. The Company does not engage in speculative transactions. During
1999, the Company used price and basis swap agreements. Price swap agreements
generally provide for the Company to receive or make counterparty payments on
the differential between a fixed price and a variable indexed price for natural
gas and oil. Basis swap agreements generally provide for the Company to receive
or make counterparty payments on the differential between a variable indexed
price and the price it receives from the sale of natural gas production, and are
used to hedge against unfavorable price movements in the relationship between
such variable indexed price and the price received for such production. Gains
and losses realized by the Company from hedging activities are included in oil
and gas revenues and average sales prices in the period that the related
production is sold. Additionally, the Company must provide cash collateral for
any hedges (through swap or other agreements) to cover counter-party risk. The
Company's hedging activities also cover the oil and gas production attributable
to the interest in such production of the public unitholders in its subsidiary
partnerships.
Through natural gas price swap agreements, the Company hedged approximately
65%, 49% and 50% of its natural gas production for 1997, 1998 and 1999,
respectively, at average NYMEX quoted price of $2.35, $2.31 and $2.17 per Mmbtu,
respectively, before transaction and transportation costs. As of December 31,
1999, 1,550,000 Mmbtu's of natural gas production for 2000 has been hedged by
natural gas price swap agreements at an average NYMEX quoted price of $2.41 per
Mmbtu before transaction and transportation costs. Additional hedging activities
since December 31, 1999 have increased the volumes hedged in 2000 to 8,900,000
Mmbtus of natural gas at an average NYMEX quoted price of $2.56 per Mmbtu before
transaction and transportation costs. Through crude oil price swap agreements,
the Company hedged approximately 29% of its crude oil production for 1999 at an
average NYMEX quoted price of $20.00 per bbl, before transaction and
transportation costs. No crude oil production was hedged in either 1997 or 1998.
As of December 31, 1999, 30,000 bbls of crude oil production for January 2000
through March 2000 has been hedged by crude oil price swap agreements at an
average NYMEX quoted price of $25.05 per bbl before transaction and
transportation costs. Additional hedging activities since December 31, 1999 have
increased the volumes hedged in 2000 to 182,500 bbls of crude oil production at
an average NYMEX quoted price of $26.21 per bbl before transaction and
transportation costs. Hedging activities decreased crude oil and natural gas
revenues by approximately $4.2 million in 1997 and $0.2 million in 1999,
respectively, and increased such revenues by approximately $3.5 million in 1998
as compared to estimated revenues had no hedging activities been conducted. At
December 31, 1999, the unrealized gain on the Company's existing hedging
instruments for future production months in 2000 approximated $23,000.
The credit risk exposure from counterparty nonperformance on natural gas
forward sales contracts and derivative financial instruments is generally the
amount of unrealized gains under the contracts. The Company has not experienced
counterparty nonperformance on these agreements and does not anticipate any in
future periods.

(1) Includes 40.9 bcf of natural gas in 1999 related to the Company's interest
in the VORI. In March 2000, the Company executed a sale of a portion of its
VORI for net proceeds of approximately $20 million. The portion of the VORI
reserves sold (approximately 16.5 Bcf) relates to production beginning April
1, 2003.
Standardized Measure. The following table of the Standardized Measure of
Discounted Future Net Cash Flows concerning the standardized measure of future
cash flows from proved oil and gas reserves are presented in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 69. As prescribed by this
statement, the amounts shown are based on prices and costs at the end of each
period, and assume continuation of existing economic conditions. Future income
taxes are based on year-end statutory rates, adjusted for operating loss
carryforwards and tax credits. A discount factor of 10% was used to reflect the
timing of future net cash flow. Extensive judgments are involved in estimating
the timing of production and the costs that will be incurred throughout the
remaining lives of the fields. Accordingly, the estimates of future net revenues
from proved reserves and the present value thereof may not be materially correct
when judged against actual subsequent results. Further, since prices and costs
do not remain static, and no price or cost changes have been considered, and
future production and development costs are estimates to be incurred in
developing and producing the estimated proved oil and gas reserves, the results
are not necessarily indicative of the fair market value of estimated proved
reserves, and the results may not be comparable to estimates disclosed by other
oil and gas producers.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS
The Company's non-management directors receive $3,750 quarterly and $1,000 for
each committee meeting attended.
EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS
In 1999 we extended for an additional three-year term the three-year employment
agreement with John F. Bookout at a base salary of $800,000. In October 1998, we
entered into a one-year evergreen employment agreement with Rick G. Lester at a
base salary of $175,000 and an initial bonus of $50,000. In 1999, we entered
into a one-year evergreen employment agreement with Kenneth R. Sanders at a base
salary of $190,000 and an initial bonus of $50,000. Each of the agreements
provides for a lump sum severance payment if the covered executive is terminated
by us without cause or as otherwise permitted, as defined in the agreements. Mr.
Bookout would be entitled to a severance payment covering the balance of the
three-year term, Mr. Lester's severance payment would be equal to one year's
salary, and in the case of a change of control, eighteen months' salary plus
annual performance awards as defined in the agreement and all unvested options
accelerated to 100% vesting. Mr. Sander's severance payment would be equal to
one year's salary plus annual performance award as defined in the agreement, and
in the case of a change of control, two year's salary and all unvested options
accelerated to 100% vesting. Each of the agreements provides for various other
benefits and for indemnification of the covered executive under certain
conditions.
SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP AND REPORTING COMPLIANCE
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Company's
directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than 10% of a
registered class of the Company's equity securities, to file with the Securities
and Exchange Commission reports of ownership and changes in ownership of common
stock and other equity securities of the Company. Based on a review of reports
and information provided to the Company by executive officers, directors and
greater than 10% stockholders, the Company believes all reports required to be
filed in 1999 were timely filed.
ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

percent of any class of our capital stock is Contour Production Company L.L.C.

Holdings, L.P. ("Bessemer") owns a majority of the membership interests in CPC.

each deemed to beneficially own the shares of Common Stock held of record by
CPC. As of April 21, 2000, those shares represented 49.5% of the total voting
power of our capital stock (consisting of shares of Common Stock and Preferred
Stock). Bevairohn, Ltd., a partnership controlled by John F. Bookout,
