Item 5. Other Events
On August 9, 1995, the transaction by which a Mobil
Corporation (Mobil) affiliate exercised its option to acquire a 40%

transaction, EEX was relieved of approximately $140 million of its
$370 million capital and operating lease obligations on the

expenditure requirements on the project. In addition, EEX received
cash at closing and future work commitments from Mobil. EEX
remains the operator of the project. Production on the Garden
