Page 7 of 27 ROCKY MOUNTAIN ENERGY CORPORATION (A CORPORATION IN THE DEVELOPMENT STAGE) NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS __________ 1. ORGANIZATION AND CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES ---------------------------------------------- ORGANIZATION ------------ Rocky Mountain Energy Corporation (the 'Company") is a corporation in the development stage that was formed to acquire and develop oil and gas properties. The Company was originally incorporated in Texas on May 10, 2002, as Cavallo Energy Corporation but was merged with a non-operating public shell company, Emission Control Devices, Inc., on May 29, 2002. The merger transaction (the "Transaction") was treated as a recepitalization because just prior to the Transaction , Emission Control Devices, Inc. had no significant assets or liabilities. Emission Control Devices, Inc. adopted a name change to Rocky Mountain Energy Corporation and remains the legal reporting entity. Cavallo Energy Corporation is considered the acquiror in the Transaction for financial reporting purposes and the accompanying financial statements include the historical operations of Cavallo Energy Corporation since its inception. The legal reporting entity, Rocky Mountain Energy Corporation was originally incorporated in the state of Colorado on May 16, 1985 as Mountain Ashe, Inc. On September 23, 1987 the Company adopted a name change to Holographic Systems, Inc. and re-incorporated in the state of Nevada. On January 22, 2001, the Company's name was again changed to Emission Control Devices, Inc. as part of a recapitalization involving a North Carolina corporation of the same name. Finally, on May 30, 2002, in connection with the Transaction, the Company adopted the name Rocky Mountain Energy Corporation. GENERAL ------- The unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements included herein have been prepared without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to such rules and regulations. These unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of Rocky Mountain Energy Corporation(the "Company") included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended September 30, 2002. In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated condensed financial information included herein reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the interim period presented herein is not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year or any other interim period. DEVELOPMENT STAGE ENTERPRISE ---------------------------- The Company reports as a development stage enterprise because, since its inception, substantially all efforts by management have been directed in the areas of financial planning, capital raising and identification of oil and gas properties for acquisition. Page 8 of 27 ROCKY MOUNTAIN ENERGY CORPORATION (A CORPORATION IN THE DEVELOPMENT STAGE) NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS __________ 1. ORGANIZATION AND CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED -------------------------------------------------------- ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES --------------------- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Currently, these estimates mainly involve the useful lives of property and equipment and the valuation of common stock issued for compensation or other reasons. OIL AND GAS PRODUCING ACTIVITIES ------------------------------------ The Company uses the full cost method of accounting for its investment in oil and gas properties. Under this method, the Company capitalizes all acquisition, exploration and development costs incurred for the purpose of finding oil and gas reserves, including salaries, benefits and other internal costs directly attributable to these activities. Costs, however, associated with production and general corporate activities are expensed in the period incurred. Interest costs related to unproved properties and properties under development are also capitalized to oil and gas properties. Unless a significant portion of the Company's proved reserve quantities are sold (greater than 25 percent), proceeds from the sale of oil and gas properties are accounted for as a reduction to capitalized costs, and gains and losses are not recognized. The Company will compute the depreciation, depletion and amortization ("DD&A") of oil and gas properties on a quarterly basis using the unit-of-production method based upon production and estimates of proved reserve quantities. Unproved properties will be excluded from the amortizable base until evaluated. Future development costs and dismantlement, restoration and abandonment costs, net of estimated salvage values, will be added to the amortizable base. These future costs, when incurred, will be estimated by engineers employed by the Company. The Company will limit the capitalized costs of proved oil and gas properties, net of accumulated DD&A and deferred income taxes, to the estimated future net cash flows from proved oil and gas reserves discounted at 10 percent, net of related tax effects, plus the lower of cost or fair value of unproved properties included in the costs being amortized. If capitalized costs exceed this limit, the excess will be charged to additional DD&A expense. Given the volatility of oil and gas prices, it is reasonably possible that estimates of discounted future net cash flows from proved oil and gas reserves could change in the near term. If oil and gas prices decline significantly, even if only for a short period of time, it is possible that a write-down of oil and gas properties would result. Significant unproved properties will be periodically assessed for possible impairments or reductions in value. If a reduction in value occurs, the impairment will be transferred to proved properties. Unproved properties that are individually insignificant will be amortized over an average holding period. Page 9 of 27 ROCKY MOUNTAIN ENERGY CORPORATION (A CORPORATION IN THE DEVELOPMENT STAGE) NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS __________ 1. ORGANIZATION AND CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED -------------------------------------------------------- OIL AND GAS REVENUES ----------------------- Oil and gas revenues will be recorded under the sales method. Under this method the Company will recognize oil and gas revenues when production occurs and will accrue revenue relating to production for which the Company has not received payment. As of December 31, 2002, the Company had not completed the acquisition of any producing oil and gas properties. Accordingly, no revenue related to oil and gas production has been reported. 2. GOING CONCERN CONSIDERATIONS ------------------------------ Since it began operations on May 10, 2002, the Company suffered a significant loss from operations and has been dependent on stockholders and new investors to provide the cash resources to sustain its operations. The capital required during the start-up phase of operations has caused the Company to become delinquent in the payment of payroll and in the remittance of payroll taxes. The Company's liquidity problems were heightened when a loan agreement with a subsidiary of Marathon Holding Corporation (the "Marathon Agreement"), that required a $100,000 up front fee, turned out to be an effort by Marathon and certain officers and associates of Marathon to defraud the Company. The effects of the Marathon Agreement extended beyond the up front fees and origination costs to the unraveling of certain planned acquisitions. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company's strategic plan for dealing with its liquidity problems is based on direct sales of its common stock or use of its common stock to collateralize working capital loans and to complete certain planned acquisitions that management believes will produce cash flows from operations. The Company is also seeking a NASD or American Stock Exchange listed company with which to merge. Management believes that merging with a NASD or American Stock Exchange listed company may improve its ability to obtain sources of financing. There can be no assurance that any of the plans developed by the Company will produce cash flows sufficient to overcome current liquidity problems. The Company's long-term viability as a going concern is dependent on certain key factors, as follows: - The Company's ability to obtain adequate sources of outside financing to fund near-term development stage operations, satisfy past due payroll liabilities and pay delinquent federal withholding liabilities. - The Company's ability to acquire and produce from economically viable oil and gas reserves. - The Company's ability to ultimately achieve adequate profitability and cash flows to sustain continuing operations.

ACQUISITION OF INTEREST IN STRATUS ENERGY, LLC ---------------------------------------------------- On December 1, 2002, the Company acquired H & N LLC's interest in Stratus Energy, LLC, a limited liability corporation organized pursuant to the laws of the state of Arkansas. The properties acquired in this transaction consist of 16,438 acres in Las Animas County, Colorado and Colifax County, New Mexico in the Raton Basin. The properties comprise the Trinidad Coal Bed Methane project. The purchase price was 1,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock which was valued at $175,000. 4. INCOME TAXES ------------- The Company has incurred losses since its inception and, therefore, has not been subject to federal income taxes. As of September 30, 2002, the Company had net operating loss ("NOL") carryforwards for income tax purposes of approximately $932,000 which expire in the tax year ending September 30, 2022. Because United States tax laws limit the time during which NOL carryforwards may be applied against future taxable income, the Company may be unable to take full advantage of its NOL for federal income tax purposes should the Company generate taxable income. The difference between the income tax benefit in the accompanying statement of operations and the amount that would result if the United States Federal statutory rate of 34% were applied to pre-tax loss for the period ended September 30, 2002 is as follows: Benefit for income tax at federal statutory rate $(139,492) (34.0%) Non-deductible expenses related primarily to recapitalization and loan costs 37,519 9.1 Increase in valuation allowance 101,973 24.9 ---------- -------- $ - -% ========== ======== 5. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS ----------------- The Company may also be periodically subject to legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of its business. To date, no legal proceedings have been initiated against the Company as a defendant. 6. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS ------------------ ACQUISITION OF UNITED STATES OIL COMPANY PROPERTIES --------------------------------------------------------- On November 1, 2002, the Company took steps to acquire the 8,000 acre Ten Mile and Desert Spring Fields in Sweetwater County, Wyoming from United States Oil Company ("U.S. Oil") for a total purchase price of $2,900,000. This acquisition, when completed, will provide the Company with the controlling interest in the coal bed methane gas project in Sweetwater County, Wyoming. The terms of the transaction are $200,000 in cash on or before November 15, 2002 and a convertible note bearing interest at 2% per year for the remaining $2,700,000. Interest is payable quarterly on the conventional note and the note cannot be converted during the first twelve months. During the remaining term, the note can be converted to Company common stock at the prevailing stock price. The Company, at Page 11 of 27 ROCKY MOUNTAIN ENERGY CORPORATION (A CORPORATION IN THE DEVELOPMENT STAGE) NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS __________ 6. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS, CONTINUED ------------------------------ its option, may force conversion when the share price averages $1.50 per share for 60 days or longer. The Company was unable to make the required cash down payment by November 15, 2002, but has subsequently made $120,000 in cash payments and received extensions for payment of the remaining balance from U.S. Oil until March 13, 2003. The transaction to acquire U.S. Oil is a related party transaction because Steve Lieberman, the President of U.S. Oil is also a director of the Company. RESIDENTIAL RESOURCES FINANCIAL SERVICES ------------------------------------------- On November 12, 2002, the Company executed a financing arrangement with Residential Resources Financial Services ("Residential"), an investment banking firm, to provide up to $100 million of acquisition and development financing for proved oil and gas projects. The funding will be secured by, among other things, any proved oil and gas reserves the Company purchases using proceeds received under the agreement. In January 2003, a commitment fee of $50,000 was paid to Residential Resources in connection with the execution of the financing arrangement. Any projects funded under this financing arrangement will be subject to due diligence by Residential. Debt financing obtained will be at market rates at the time bonds are issued. Management believes that any transactions funded by Residential will take approximately four months to close. However, no assurances can be made as to when or if any project will close. Page 12 of 27 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION GENERAL As of the September 30, 2002, the end of the Company's prior fiscal year, the Company had closed no property acquisitions. Accordingly, the Company did not generate any revenues from operations during the period from inception, May 10, 2002, to September 30, 2002. During December 2002, the Company completed the acquisition of an interest in Stratus Energy, LLC and since September 30 2002, the Company has taken steps to close three other acquisitions of properties/companies in the Rocky Mountain region of the United States. The Company must complete funding of a $200,000 short-term note to complete one of these acquisitions. The remaining two potential acquisitions will require that the Company raise and fund $5,500,000. A letter of intent for another acquisition with a purchase price of $8,000,000, for currently producing/cash flowing properties has been signed. The Company believes that it current acquisition prospects will meet the criteria for funding under the Residential Resources Credit Facility, discussed below. The Company is continually searching for properties within the Rocky Mountain region that fit within the operating, technical, and cash flow parameters that we believe will allow us to be successful. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES The Company's discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon its consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates and assumptions provide a basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions, and these differences may be material. The Company believes the following critical accounting policies affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements. DEVELOPMENT STAGE ENTERPRISE The Company reports as a development stage enterprise because, since its inception, substantially all efforts by management have been directed in the areas of financial planning, capital raising and identification of oil and gas properties for acquisition. OIL AND GAS PRODUCING ACTIVITIES The Company uses the full cost method of accounting for its investment in oil and gas properties. Under this method, the Company capitalizes all acquisition, exploration and development costs incurred for the purpose of finding oil and gas reserves, including salaries, benefits and other internal costs directly attributable to these activities. Costs, however, associated with production and general corporate activities are expensed in the period incurred. Interest costs related to unproved properties and properties under development are also capitalized to oil and gas properties. Unless a significant portion of the Company's proved reserve quantities are sold (greater than 25 percent), proceeds from the sale of oil and gas properties are accounted for as a reduction to capitalized costs, and gains and losses are not recognized. The Company will compute the depreciation, depletion and amortization ("DD&A") of oil and gas properties on a quarterly basis using the unit-of-production method based upon production and estimates of proved reserve quantities. Unproved properties will be excluded from the amortizable base until evaluated. Future development costs and dismantlement, restoration and abandonment costs, net of estimated salvage values, will be added to the amortizable base. These future costs, when incurred, will be estimated by engineers employed by the Company. The Company will limit the capitalized costs of proved oil and gas properties, net of accumulated DD&A and deferred income taxes, to the estimated future net cash flows from proved oil and gas reserves discounted at 10 percent, net of related tax effects, plus the lower of cost or fair value of unproved properties included in the costs being amortized. If capitalized costs exceed this limit, the excess will be charged to additional DD&A expense. Page 13 of 27 Given the volatility of oil and gas prices, it is reasonably possible that estimates of discounted future net cash flows from proved oil and gas reserves could change in the near term. If oil and gas prices decline significantly, even if only for a short period of time, it is possible that a write-down of oil and gas properties would result. Significant unproved properties will be periodically assessed for possible impairments or reductions in value. If a reduction in value occurs, the impairment will be transferred to proved properties. Unproved properties that are individually insignificant will be amortized over an average holding period. OIL AND GAS REVENUES Oil and gas revenues will be recorded under the sales method. Under this method the Company will recognize oil and gas revenues when production occurs and will accrues revenue relating to production for which the Company has not received payment. BUSINESS STRATEGY Our business strategy is to acquire proved oil and natural gas reserves, including proved undeveloped reserves, and to expand reserves, production and cash flow through development and exploitation of such reserves. The key elements of our strategy are: Regional Focus. We seek to acquire proved reserves in the geographic core areas --------------- in which we maintain operational expertise in the San Juan Basin, New Mexico and Rocky Mountain region. Based on the results of recent activities in the San Juan Basin of New Mexico and in Rocky Mountain region by other participants in the oil and natural gas industry, we believe that sizable unexploited reserves remain in these areas Property Mix. We seek to acquire properties that are a combination of producing ------------- and non-producing assets. We believe that producing properties will provide immediate revenue and cash flow, while non-producing assets will provide future development opportunities and, ultimately, reserves at a reduced cost, because based on the experience of our management, proved undeveloped properties are typically sold at a reduced price compared to producing properties. Additionally, we seek properties that have additional development potential for non-proved reserves, such as probable and possible reserves. Aggressive Management And Exploitation Of Assets. Our goal is, when possible, --------------------------------------------------- to act as the "operator" of the properties that we acquire. As operator, we believe that we can most economically direct critical functions in the exploration and production process. These functions include: - determining the area to develop and explore; - managing production; - managing the permitting and optioning process; - determining seismic survey design; - overseeing data acquisition and processing; and - identifying each prospect and drill site. Technological Expertise. We have operational expertise in each geographic core ------------------------- area in which our recent property acquisitions are located. We will use these skills, together with 3-D seismic data visualization and interpretation techniques, to develop our oil and gas reserves. We expect to add experienced technical personnel to our current team; however, we can give no assurance that such additional personnel will be hired or that it will be on terms satisfactory to us. Business Strategy. Our business strategy is to acquire oil and natural gas ------------------ properties with existing proved reserves of oil and natural gas and to develop proved undeveloped reserves of oil and natural gas. Key elements of our strategy are: Page 14 of 27 - Focus on acquiring additional producing oil and gas properties in areas that we have identified in our geographic core areas the San Juan Basin of New Mexico and the Rocky Mountains; - Acquire properties containing both developed and undeveloped reserves; - Aggressively manage and exploit all properties acquired; and - Use technological expertise to develop reserves. - We have operational expertise in each geographic core area in which our properties are located. We will use these skills, together with 3-D seismic data visualization and interpretation techniques, to develop our oil and gas reserves. We expect to add experienced technical personnel to our current team; however, we can give no assurance that such additional personnel will be hired or that it will be on terms satisfactory to us. ACQUISITIONS AND PROPOSED ACQUISITIONS UNITED STATES OIL CO. On November 1, 2002, Rocky Mountain Energy Corporation took steps to acquire the 8,000 acre Ten Mile and Desert Spring Fields in Sweetwater County, Wyoming from United States Oil Co. (U.S. Oil). This acquisition, if completed according to its terms will result in the Company's ownership of a controlling interest in a coal bed methane gas project in Sweetwater County, Wyoming. Net proved reserves to the interest purchased (at a price of $2,900,000) is estimated to be 56.4 billion cubic feet (Bcf) gas. The proved reserves represented by this acquisition are proved undeveloped and development activities must take place in order to generate cash flow to the company. Development funding of $3 million is needed to drill shallow wells at approximately 2,300' to 4,200' in depth. Development will begin with the drilling of a proved undeveloped Almond location (4,200') well in which the Company will also encounter the prolific Lewis sand at 3,500' and coal bed methane formations at shallower depths, around 2,300'. Expected initial flow rate is 1,000 Mcfpd. Reserves are long-term gas reserves with moderate decline curves. There are two wells already drilled which encountered the gas sands mentioned above awaiting completion which will begin immediately. PROVED RESERVES (000S OMITTED) Net BCF Undiscounted. Net PV10% ------------ ------------ ------------ Proved Undeveloped 56.4 $ 100,333 $ 51,300 The purchase price for U.S. Oil is $2,900,000 to be satisfied with a $200,000 short term note due on November 15, 2002, and a convertible note bearing 2% interest per annum for two years for the remaining $2.7 million. Interest is payable quarterly on the convertible note. The convertible note cannot be converted during the first twelve months, but can be converted to Company common stock thereafter through maturity at the then prevailing stock price. The Company, at its option, may force conversion should the share price averages $1.50 per share for 60 days or longer. In January, partial payments totaling $80,000 have been made on the $200,000 note. Because of the partial payments, the term of the note has been extended by U. S. Oil Co. to April 30, 2003. The Company is currently raising cash to pay the remaining $120,000 balance of the $200,000 short term-note. The lender is withholding the revenues which are due to the Company from November and December 2002 production until the $200,000 note has been paid. The transaction to acquire U.S. Oil is a related party transaction since Mr. Steve Lieberman, the President of U.S. Oil is also a director of the Company. Mr. Lieberman owns 275,000 shares of the Company's common stock as of December 31, 2002. Page 15 of 27 H & N LLC On December 1, 2002, the Company acquired H&N LLC's interest in Stratus Energy, LLC a Limited Liability Corporation organized pursuant to the laws of the state of Arkansas. The properties acquired in this transaction consist of 16,438 acres in Las Animas County, Colorado and Colifax County, New Mexico in the Raton Basin producing area. The properties comprise the Trinidad Coal bed Methane project. The purchase price was 1,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock which was valued at $175,000. The Trinidad project is an ideal acquisition for the Company since it is geographically favorable to the Company's existing properties and within the areas of its expertise. We anticipate that this acquisition will produce significant production income for the year 2003. Additionally, the property itself will be used for development financing. Upon development, this property could produce in excess of $3,000,000 in revenues per month to the Company's interest. Estimated ultimate recoverable reserves for the Trinidad Coal bed Methane Project are 200 Bcf, being 2 Bcf per well for 100 wells drilled on 160 acre spacing. Under the terms of the purchase and sales agreement, the seller has also agreed to provide development capital to produce and maximize cash flow on the properties. The Company expects to begin development of the property in March 2003. Drilling will be done in a "five spot" pattern, being four gas wells drilled around a saltwater disposal well. Coal gas wells produce significant amounts of water along with the gas. Coal gas wells are very low-risk drilling. The gas is found in layers of coal which blanket an area measured in the thousands of acres. The gas will be marketed through the El Paso gas line, which runs near the field. The Company's field is located between the Trinidad Gas Field, which has produced over 150 Billion cubic feet of gas to date, and the Garcia Field. The coal bed sections average 12 feet to 14 feet in thickness and wells are estimated to produce up to 2 Bcf per well from a relatively shallow 3,300'. The discovery well, the Phillips Petroleum #6-17, was completed from 3,055' to 3,240' in 23 feet of coal beds. Reservoir shut-in pressure was 1,504 pounds per square inch (psi). After twenty-four years of production, shut-in pressure was still 1,472 psi, denoting very little decline and indicating the possibility of large volumes of remaining reserves. HORSESHOE GALLUP/NORTHEAST HOGBACK On January 10, 2003, the Company announced that it had executed a purchase and sale agreement for the purchase of the Horseshoe Gallup and Northeast Hogback Unit, (HGU/NEHU) from Regent Energy Corporation. The acquisition includes approximately 24,000 acres of oil producing property in the San Juan Basin, near Farmington, New Mexico. Current production is approximately 250 barrels of oil per day. These properties have an estimated 10 million barrels of proven reserves of oil, 8.4 million of which is proved undeveloped, at depths from 1,300 feet to 2,300 feet. Some 100 development wells are planned over the next three years which are designed to raise production to 3,000 barrels of oil per day. A reserve report by Ryder Scott & Co., values the reserves at $60 million discounted at the net present value of 10%. The non-discounted value of these reserves is $120 million. These values were derived using a price of $23.50 per barrel, while the current price is over $30 per barrel. The purchase price for this property is $5.5 million, which is expected to be financed thru the Company's Residential Resources credit line. No share dilution is expected. Closing is scheduled for March 31, 2003. The acquisition price for these reserves is $0.55 per barrel. Development cost are estimated to be $0.75 per barrel provided that the Company can use its own equipment, which it plans to acquire, in lieu of using outside contractors. Therefore, the total acquisition and development cost of $1.30 per barrel make this an attractively priced acquisition for the Company. In connection with the acquisition of the HGU/NEHU property, the Company has signed a $3.0 million note with Earl Hollingshead, (sole owner of Parawon Operating LLC), in order to purchase the mortgage he has on the HGU/NEHU properties. The term of this note is $300,000 payable on January 15, 2003 and the remainder of $2.7 million due on March 31, 2003, (the closing date for HGU/NEHU). This an interest free note. As of January 30, 2003, the Company has paid $40,000 on this note. The balance of the purchase price will be paid to Regent or to various lien holders on the property. Regent is a related party in that the Chairman of the Board of the Company is also a Board member of Regent, and the President/CEO of the Company is the former President/CEO of Regent. The Chairman of the company owns 154,328 shares of Regent stock which represents 0.43% of the common stock of Regent, while the President of the Company is one beneficiary of a trust which owns 4,813,112 shares of Regent representing 13.61% of Regent's common shares. Page 16 of 27 ACQUISITION OF COLORADO PRODUCING OIL AND GAS PROPERTY On January 30, 2003, the Company announced that it has executed a letter of intent to purchase a producing property located in central Colorado. The field is currently producing and generating approximately $150,000 of revenues per month. This acquisition contains proved reserves net to the Company of an estimated 8.3 billion cubic feet of gas and 455,426 barrels of oil. Production is anticipated to increase almost three fold by performance of behind pipe mechanical operations. The price of this property is $8 million with an effective date of January 1, 2003, thereby crediting the Company with sales proceeds from that day forward. The price equates to $4.35 per barrel of oil equivalent. Current oil prices are over $30 per barrel. Closing is set for March 31, 2003. The Company expects to utilize the Residential Resources line of credit to fund this acquisition. MERGER The Company has decided to pursue a possible merger with a NASDAQ or American Stock Exchange listed company as part of its strategy to maximize shareholder value. The Company has executed an agreement with Stifel to seek a candidate for such a merger. There are no assurances that a suitable candidate will be found or that such a merger would ever take place. CAPITAL RESOURCES CURRENT SITUATION Since it began operations on May 10, 2002 the Company has generated no cash flows from operations. The cash needs are being met by advances from the CEO of the Company and from certain investors. Management anticipates that the cash flow from the properties we are purchasing from United States Oil Company will provide the Company with sufficient cash flows to meet our normal general and administrative expenses and field operating expenses, provided that our development program produces the quantities of gas management anticipates. The Company does not have an ongoing line of credit at this time, and without such can not guarantee that there will be sufficient cash to meet daily ongoing needs. We are counting on cash flow from operations and/or a future credit line to satisfy our cash flow needs. Due to the liquidity problems the Company is currently experiencing, the Company's auditors have included an emphasis paragraph in their report on the Company's September 30, 2002 consolidated financial statement that indicates that there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. RESIDENTIAL RESOURCES FINANCIAL SERVICES On November 12, 2002, the Company executed an agreement with Residential Resources Financial Services ("Residential"), an investment banking firm, to provide up to $100 million of acquisition and development financing for proved oil and gas projects. The funding will be secured, with, among other things, each of the proved oil and gas reserves the Company purchases. A commitment fee of $50,000 was paid to Residential Resources who has funded $2.9 billion in secured loans to date. Each project assigned for funding will need to pass due diligence by Residential. Terms are likely to be at market rates at the time bonds are issued. Interest rates are at their lowest in forty years and market conditions for securitization are very favorable. The financing is asset based geared to current cash flowing properties, so there is no dilution to our stock. The process with Residential to close a transaction is expected to take approximately 120 days from start to finish, and no assurances can be made when or if every project will close, however. INTERNATIONAL MERCANTILE HOLDING GROUP, INC. $3 MILLION CREDIT FACILITY In the most recent Form 10-KSB, the Company reported that on January 7, 2003, the Company signed a Loan Agreement with International Mercantile Holding Group, Inc., a New York Corporation wherein the Company would borrow approximately $90,000 from IMHG. The first $90,000 is a first tranch draw-down which can be Page 17 of 27 drawn up to $3 million. Terms of the note are that interest is charged at prime rate, currently 4.25%, with interest paid semi-annually beginning July 1, 2003. The principal is due on December 30, 2005. The note is secured with 2 million shares of RMEC section 144 Restricted stock, which will be returned to the Company upon payment of the note. However, on January 23, 2003, the Company filed a Form 8-K stating that this agreement has been cancelled and all shares of stock associated with this agreement have been cancelled. AGREEMENTS WITH STIFEL, NICOLAUS & COMPANY On January 8, 2003, the Company announced that it has hired Stifel, Nicolaus & CO. Inc., investment bankers of Denver Colorado to locate and negotiate suitable cash flowing acquisitions of proved oil and gas properties in the Rocky Mountain region. Stifel, Nicolas was founded in 1890 and managed numerous significant financings, including Chicago's O'Hare airport in 1961. In 1983 the firm went public on the NYSE (ticker "SF"). Today, Stifel, Nicolaus is a full service regional brokerage and investment-banking firm providing securities brokerage, investment banking, trading, advisory and related financial services. The firm has 77 offices in 30 states employing 1,200 employees. The energy unit has completed $800 million in capital raising and advised on 19 M&A, valuation and fairness opinions. The Company anticipates contracting in the near future with several of the acquisition candidates that Stifel, Nicolaus has presented to this point, as combining current high cash flow properties with our proved undeveloped reserve base is the core of our business plan. On February 13, 2003, the Company executed an agreement with Stifel Nicolaus to locate and advise the Company on merger candidates wherein the Company would merge into a NASDAQ or American Stock Exchange listed company. The Company is actively seeking a candidate for this merger. COMPANY DECISION TO UTILIZE ASSET BASED FINANCING On January 22, 2003, the Company announced that the recently announced acquisitions and those in negotiation will be financed by asset-based financing only. The Company is concentrating on acquiring properties with substantial amounts of proved reserves and current production, thus lending itself to asset based financing. Therefore, the Company will not consider either equity offerings or convertible debt offerings at this time. The Company will continue to move forward on acquisition opportunities which have current production with associated high cash flow and we intend to utilize our financing vehicle with Residential Resources to complete these acquisitions. This strategy will result in non-dilution of the stock and provides the investor with the highest return on investment that we can accomplish with our acquisition and development program. COMPANY BORROWINGS SHORT TERM NOTE WITH MATHERS ASSOCIATES On July 2, 2002, the Company entered into a 90-day note at 12% interest for the sum of $100,000. The note is due and payable on October 2, 2002. Default interest on this note is at a rate of 18%. The note is guaranteed by the Company and personally by the President of the Company. The note has been extended until April 30, 2003 by mutual consent of the parties. The lender has agreed to take Company stock for the interest due on this note. Approximately 230,000 shares will be issued in this regard. LONG TERM AND SHORT TERM NOTES WITH STEVE LIEBERMAN (UNITED STATES OIL COMPANY) In conjunction with the purchase of the U. S. Oil properties, the company signed two notes with Mr. Steve Lieberman, the President of U. S. Oil. Page 18 of 27 The first note is a $200,000 note due by the Company as a down payment for the properties. The note was due on January 15, 2003, but has been extended to April 30, 2003. As of January 30, 2003, the Company had paid $80,000 of the amount owed leaving a balance of $120,000 owed to Lieberman. Interest accrues at 18% per annum on this note. A second note was signed with Mr. Lieberman for the $2.7 million. This represents the balance of the purchase price for the U. S. Oil properties of $2.9 million less the down payment of $200,000 mentioned above. The $2.7 million note has a term of two years beginning November 1, 2003 and provides for interest of 2% per annum payable quarterly. SHORT TERM NOTE WITH PARAWON LLC (EARL HOLLINGSHEAD) In connection with the acquisition of the HGU/NEHU property, the Company has signed a $3.0 million note with Earl Hollingshead, (sole owner of Parawon Operating LLC), in order to purchase the mortgage he has on the HGU/NEHU properties.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS 1. The Company is not a defendant in any legal proceeding. 2. ROCKY MOUNTAIN ENERGY CORPORATION VS. SALVATORE RUSSO ET AL On October 23, 2002, in the District Court of Harris County, Texas 113 Judicial District, Rocky Mountain Energy, as plaintiff, filed a suit against Salvatore Russo; SOS Resource Services, Inc. a New York corporation; Consolidated American Finance Services Group LLC; Consolidated American Energy Resources, Inc.; George Melina; Regent Consulting and EuroPacific Asset Management Corporation; Horst Danning; Ron Brooks dba Marathon Corporation jointly as defendants. Page 19 of 27 Rocky Mountain represented to Defendants Russo, Melina, Danning and Brooks that Rocky was looking to make acquisitions of oil and gas properties and companies and was in the need of financing in order to accomplish said acquisitions. Each of the four Defendants represented to Rocky that Defendant Brooks ostensibly controlled, (Marathon Corporation had $1.5 billion in assets), a credit line of over $600 million, and that it would agree to give Rocky a line of credit in the amount of $40 million in exchange for 20,000,000 shares of Rocky common stock to Marathon Corporation with rights of registration. Brooks also stated that in order to obtain the financing, Rocky would have to put up $100,000 for various fees up front.In response to Rocky's request for credit references and documentation, Defendant Brooks, on or about May 23, 2002, delivered to Rocky documents ostensibly from Ernst and Young and from Union Bank of Switzerland which appeared to be authentic, but which were determined to be fake and fraudulent several months later, as well as a Credit Agreement, ostensibly for the granting of credit of $40,000,000 to Rocky by Marathon Corporation. After reviewing the documentation, the Credit Agreement was signed on behalf of Rocky who then wired $100,000 at Defendant Brooks direction. Of this $100,000, it was later discovered that Defendant Russo received at least $12,500; Defendant Melina received at least $12,500 and Defendant Danning received at least $25,000. As a result of the representations made and the Credit Agreement, Rocky attempted to proceed with acquisitions of B,C&D properties from the credit line. Along this line, a check was issued by Marathon Corporation and signed by Defendant Brooks for $3,000,000 to fund this acquisition. On approximately August 7, 2002, the check was returned for non-sufficient funds. Prior to the return of the $3,000,000 check, Defendants Russo, Melina, and Brooks acquired a total of 8,000,000 shares of Rocky common stock from existing shareholders, which shared were escrowed with and through an attorney, Jim K. Choate, who was introduced to Rocky by Defendant Russo. In late August, Rocky determined that the $3,000,000 as well as the $40,000,000 were a fraud and demanded that any stock in the hands of Defendants Russo, Melina and/or Brooks be returned. The claims of Credit Agreements, and other funding have proved to be fraudulent, Rocky is demanding return of the $100,000 initial amount paid to Ron Brooks for the Marathon Corporation line of credit and the 9,000,000 shares of stock issued by Rocky. CURRENT UPDATE On November 22, 2002, Rocky reached agreement on recovery of 5.9 million disputed shares with Defendants Sal Russo, SOS Resources, George Melina, Consolidated American Energy Resources Inc., Regent Consulting and Consolidated American Finance Services Group LLC. These parties mutually released each other from any future liability. Rocky will continue its suit against Brooks, Marathon Corporation (no relation to Marathon Oil Company or subsidiary of USX) and Danning for the balance of the relief sought. Russo, on behalf of SOS Resources and Regent Consulting, as well as Melina for Consolidated American Companies are joining Rocky in the suit remaining against Defendant Brooks, Marathon Corporation and Danning, and give their support to the decision to continue the action against them. 3. ROCKY MOUNTAIN ENERGY CORPORATION AND JOHN N. EHRMAN VS. CLYDE VANDERBROUK AND DANIEL SILVERMAN On September 16, 2002, in the District Court of Harris County, Texas 190 Judicial District. Rocky Mountain Energy (Rocky) filed suit as plaintiff against Clyde Vanderbrouk and Daniel Silverman, defendants. Plaintiff Rocky Mountain Energy Corporation and John N. Ehrman charge as follows: Defendants Vanderbrouk and Silverman both were officers of Regent Energy Corporation when Plaintiff Ehrman was the President and CEO of the same. Defendant Vanderbrouk sent out anonymous letters to creditors of Regent stating that they would never see their money owed them by Regent, thus violating fiduciary duty as an officer of Regent. Silverman was befriended by Vanderbrouk who joined him in activities designed to damage Regent. Silverman continued to feed confidential information to Vanderbrouk who would then post it on the internet in a drive to push the company out of business. Page 20 of 27 In May of 2002, Plaintiff left Regent and began as President/CEO of Rocky Mountain Energy. As the business of Rocky developed and press releases were being made concerning signing a line of Credit with Marathon Corporation, followed by the acquisition of the B,C&D property, Defendants Silverman and Vanderbrouk made statements on the Internet that the above mentioned transactions did not occur and urged investors to short Rocky's common stock, thus doing much harm to the company. The Defendants also alleged that Ehrman was involved in a "pump and dump" scheme. This allegation is meritless since Ehrman is subject to SEC Rule 144 for his ability to sell his restricted shares. However, resulting from the assertions of Silverman and Vanderbrouk, a massive short play was mounted, damaging the value of the stock of Rocky Mountain Energy Corporation. Rocky is seeking relief as follows: (1)where judgments against both Defendants jointly and severally for Rocky's damages in an amount in jurisdictional limits of this Court; (2) exemplary damages as determined by the trier of the fact, together with interest at the legal rate from date of judgment until paid; (3) Costs of Court and interest on such judgment until paid; (4) Such other and further relief to which Plaintiff may be justly entitled; (5) Permanent injunctive relief to stop the offensive behavior. ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS Rocky Mountain Energy Corporation was formed when a company named Cavallo Energy Corporation (a privately held corporation) merged into Emission Control Devices, Inc. (a publicly traded company), on May 29, 2002. The name of the new corporation was changed to Rocky Mountain Energy Corporation and is listed on the OTCBB with the symbol RMEC. Cavallo Energy was formed on May 10, 2002 as a special purpose corporation to merge with Emission Control Devices ("EMCD" OTCBB), a public company. On May 29, 2002, Cavallo reverse merged with "EMCD" and formed Rocky Mountain Energy Corporation, a public company. Cavallo is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Rocky Mountain Energy Corporation. On October 31, 2002, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 8,000,000 of its shares of common stock representing approximately 30% of the outstanding trading shares. The purchases may be conducted from time to time on the open market or in private transactions. The shares of common stock are being purchased to return the shares to treasury for corporate purposes and improve the Company's financial position. On November 20, 2002, the Company announced that a ten percent stock dividend will be payable to shareholders of record as of Wednesday, November 27, 2002. All shareholders of record on November 27, 2002 as of the close of trading will receive a 10% dividend payable in common shares on their holdings of Company common stock. The ability of the Company to pay any future cash dividends is directly dependant on the available cash flow from operations. Currently, there is no excess cash flow from operations. On January 2, 2003, the Company executed an agreement for public relations, comprehensive business consulting and investor awareness programs with Boardwell Financial. The sum of ten million shares of RMEC stock was granted as compensation under the agreement. The Company likewise executed agreements with Larry Vindman and William Brantley for web site design, implementation and upkeep and other services which involved the payment of 1.5 million shares of RMEC stock. The Company sold 500,000 freely trading shares to H&N LLC, an accredited investor at $0.12/share. Additionally, the Company sold two separate lots of 400,000 and 500,000 shares respectively to Bordwell Financial at $0.1144/share. On February 5, 2003, the Company filed a Form S-8 whereby 7.6 million shares of Company stock are to be given to employees and directors as compensation for back wages and to consultants for fees. On January 17 and January 21, the Company announced that it has cancelled 6,000,000 and 2,450,000 shares respectively, thereby reducing the outstanding share count by 8,540,000 shares of its common stock. Page 21 of 27 At December 31, 2002, the Company had approximately 2,100 shareholders of record and 54,989,735 shares of its common stock issued and outstanding. Approximately 25 million shares are in the public float. ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES None of the Company's notes are in default.
