Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements For the Period Ended March 31, 2003 NOTE 1 - PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The unaudited consolidated financial statements of Powder River Basin Gas Corp. for the period ended March 31, 2003, included herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company's latest Annual Report filed with the SEC on Form 10-KSB/A. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim period presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the audited financial statements for the most recent year, 2002, as reported in the Form 10-KSB/A, have been omitted. NOTE 2 - ORGANIZATION The Company was incorporated under the laws of Colorado on August 27, 1999 as Celebrity Sports Network, Inc. The principal activities since inception have been organizational matters and obtaining financing. The Company was formed in an effort to broaden the scope of public appearances available to current and former professional athletes. The Company, however, changed their operations in 2001 through a reverse acquisition with Powder River Basin Gas Corp., an oil and gas company. Power River Basin Gas Corp. (PRBG) was incorporated in Colorado on June 13, 2001. The Company is engaged in the business of assembling and managing a portfolio of undeveloped acreage in the Powder River basin coal bed methane (CBM) play in Sheridan County, Wyoming. This acreage is located in a proven geological setting and near operators such as Western Gas Resources, Barrett Resources, Phillips Petroleum, J.M. Huber and others. The Company has leasehold interests in 8,096.83 net acres. Two wells have been drilled on one lease and eleven additional wells have been spudded. Pursuant to a reverse acquisition and reorganization agreement, PRBG was acquired by Celebrity Sports on September 5, 2001. At the time of the acquisition, the Company changed its name to Power River Basin Gas Corp. and issued 9 million shares of common stock for all the issued and outstanding stock of PRBG; thus, making PRBG a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Because PRBG is the accounting acquirer in the reverse acquisition, all financial history in these financial statements are that of PRBG. The Company issued 9 million shares of common stock for 9 million shares of PRBG, therefore, an adjustment to the shares outstanding was necessary to reflect the other shareholders of the Company at the time of acquisition. No goodwill was recorded in the acquisition and the purchase method of accounting was used to record the transaction. NOTE 3 - OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES The full cost method is used in accounting for oil and gas properties. Accordingly, all costs associated with acquisition, exploration, and development of oil and gas reserves, including directly related overhead costs, are capitalized. In addition, depreciation on property and equipment used in oil and gas exploration and interest costs incurred with respect to financing oil and gas acquisition, exploration and development activities are capitalized in accordance with full cost accounting. Capitalized interest for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 was $0. All capitalized costs of proved oil and gas properties subject to amortization are being amortized on the unit-of-production method using estimates of proved reserves. Investments in unproved properties and major development projects not subject to amortization are not amortized until proved reserves associated with the projects can be determined or until impairment occurs. If the results of an assessment indicate that the properties are impaired, the amount of the impairment is added to the capitalized costs to be amortized. As of March 31, 2003, proved oil and gas reserves had been identified on one of the Company's oil and gas properties, however, no extraction has begun; therefore, no amortization was recorded for the period ending March 31, 2003. All other wells are incomplete as of March 31, 2003. NOTE 4 - LONG TERM DEBT At March 31, 2003, the Company had the following long-term liabilities: Debentures held by accredited investors, which are convertible into Company common stock upon effective registration and bear interest at 6% per annum, though maturity or conversion; Debentures are convertible into Company common stock at a price equal to 75% of the lowest closing bid price per share (as reported by Bloomberg, LP) of the Company's common stock for the seven trading days immediately preceding the conversion date $ 199,461 -------------- Powder River Basin Gas Corp. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) For the Period Ended March 31, 2003 NOTE 5 - COMMON STOCK In February 2003, the Company issued 5,200,000 shares of treasury stock to satisfy debt associated with accrued salaries and other services at $0.025 per share. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS: The Chairman of the Company and entities controlled by him entered into an Exchange Agreement with Imperial Petroleum, Inc., a Nevada corporation, dated February 13, 2003 to sell all of their stock holdings in the Company (approximately 63.3% of the common stock of the Company) and any notes and other amounts due to each entity in exchange for 2.65 million shares of the common stock of Imperial. The transaction closed on May 12, 2003. ITEM 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis OR PLAN OF OPERATION CAUTIONARY STATEMENT ON FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION The Company is including the following cautionary statement to make applicable and take advantage of the safe harbor provision of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 for any forward-looking statements made by, or on behalf of, the Company. This quarterly report on form 10-QSB/A contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning plans, objectives, goals, strategies, expectations, future events or performance and underlying assumptions and other statements which are other than statements of historical facts. Certain statements contained herein are forward-looking statements and, accordingly, involve risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements. The Company's expectations, beliefs and projections are expressed in good faith and are believed by the Company to have a reasonable basis, including without limitations, management's examination of historical operating trends, data contained in the Company's records and other data available from third parties, but there can be no assurance that management's expectations, beliefs or projections will result or be achieved or accomplished. In addition to other factors and matters discussed elsewhere herein, the following are important factors that, in the view of the Company, could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements: the ability of the Company to respond to changes in the information system environment, competition, the availability of financing, and, if available, on terms and conditions acceptable to the Company, and the availability of personnel in the future. PLAN OF OPERATION The Company's business strategy for the next twelve months includes focused acquisitions and drilling operations which may be curtailed, delayed or canceled as a result of a variety of factors, including unexpected drilling conditions, pressure or irregularities in formations, equipment failures or accidents, weather conditions and shortages or delays in equipment delivery. The Company has drilled two gas wells that will produce commercially viable gas resources once the appropriate infrastructure (i.e., pipeline) is in place. The Company does not currently have sufficient funds to implement drilling and completion operations on its leases and properties alone. As a result, the Company is seeking out and entertaining offers from outsiders who wish to purchase all or part of the Company. Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company's working capital deficit on March 31, 2003 was $710,202, resulting primarily from the use of accounts payable to finance the acquisition of leasehold interests in the Powder River Basin. The Company has no established revenue sources and continues to rely on loans from shareholders, sales of equity and other financing to sustain operations as a going concern. There is currently no agreement from any officer or shareholder to continue to provide working capital in order to maintain operations. The Company is seeking to raise the necessary funds to commence drilling operations on its leasehold properties and it may become necessary to farmout or joint venture a portion or all of its properties, if sufficient funds cannot be raised.. Current Liabilities On March 31, 2003, the Company had approximately $684,100 in current liabilities. Of this amount, approximately $215,000 is due to various entities for the purchase of leasehold interests in the Powder River Basin and related expenses incurred by the Company. $317,700 was due to Taghmen Ventures, Ltd. and Mr. Gregory C. Smith, Chairman of the Company; Mr. Smith is also the General Partner for Taghmen Ventures Ltd. $25,000 is due under a note payable to an individual, who is the brother of Mr. Smith for monies loaned to the Company. Need for Additional Financing for Growth The growth of the Company's business will require substantial capital on a continuing basis, and there is no assurance that any such required additional capital will be available on satisfactory terms and conditions, if at all. The Company may pursue, from time to time, opportunities to acquire oil and natural gas properties and businesses that may utilize the capital currently expected to be available for its present operations. The amount and timing of the Company's future capital requirements, if any, may depend upon a number of factors, including drilling, transportation, and equipment costs, marketing expenses, staffing levels, competitive conditions, and purchases or dispositions of assets, many of which are not in the Company's control. Failure to obtain any required additional financing could materially adversely affect the growth, cash flow and earnings of the Company. In addition, the Company's pursuit of additional capital could result in the incurrence of additional debt or potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities. The Company's ability to meet any future debt service obligations will be dependent upon the Company's future performance, which will be subject to oil and natural gas prices, the Company's level of production, general economic conditions and financial, business and other factors affecting the operations of the Company, many of which are beyond its control. There can be no assurance that the Company's future performance will not be adversely affected by such changes in oil and natural gas prices and/or production nor by such economic conditions and/or financial, business and other factors. In addition, there can be no assurance that the Company's business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that future bank credit will be available in an amount to enable the Company to service its indebtedness or make necessary expenditures. In such event, the Company would be required to obtain such financing from the sale of equity securities or other debt financing. There can be no assurance that any such financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company. Should sufficient capital not be available, the Company may not be able to continue to implement its business strategy. ITEM 3: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Based on their evaluation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of a date within 90 days of the filing of this Report, the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer have concluded that such controls and procedures are effective. There were no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect such controls subsequent to the date of evaluation. PART II: OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The Company is a Plaintiff involved in a legal proceeding in the United States District Court for the District of Colorado, Civil Action No. 02-0764, versus John Skinner, an individual. The lawsuit was settled in the fourth quarter of 2002 and as a result, the Company recorded a note payable to Mr. Skinner of $40,000 which remains outstanding as of March 31, 2003. ITEM 2: CHANGES IN SECURITIES Subsequent to March 31, 2003, the Company filed a Schedule 14C , Definitive Information Statement in which the majority of the shareholders of the company had agreed to amend the Articles of Incorporation of the Company and increase the authorized shares of common stock, par value $0.001, of the Company from 50,000,000 shares to 200,000,000 shares of common stock, par value, $0.001.

Subsequently, Celebrity Sports Network changed its name from Celebrity Sports Network to Powder River Basin Gas Corp.

It intended to assist athletes in refining their speaking and presentation skills to increase marketability, gain a market for the athletes, and market the athletes for speaking engagements. From inception, Celebrity Sports remained a development stage company, with primary focus on organizational matters, acquiring candidate athletes as clients, and developing its marketing and business plans. Due to disappointing results; operational losses, lack of working capital, and less than acceptable results from initial business plan implementations; Celebrity Sports decided to explore other business opportunities, both within and outside the sports management industry. Ultimately, Celebrity Sports acquired and became Powder River Basin Gas Corp. Business PRVB is an oil and gas exploration company that is engaged in the evaluation and development of coalbed methane ("CBM") reserves as well as shallow oil reserves within the Powder River Basin in the State of Wyoming. PRVB`s focus has been in obtaining leasehold interests in acreage within the Powder River Basin, currently a prolific coal bed methane gas exploration play in the domestic United States. Its attributes include low cost, shallow depth drilling and completion; a proven play with major operators and an existing and expanding infrastructure; greater and longer production yields when comparing cost/benefit analyses to other basins and, a low exploration risk. As of December 31, 2002, PRVB owns a total of 14,622 acres in fourteen different leases within Converse, Crook, Johnson, and Sheridan counties. The company has a 80 percent to 100 percent working interests in all of its leases to date. The Company's leases are adjacent to larger CBM developers and operators such as Western Gas Resources, Williams Companies, Phillips Petroleum, J.M. Huber and others. This close proximity to other operators allows PRVB to benefit from the established infrastructure of gathering systems, pipelines, electricity sources, roads, etc. In January 2002, the Company drilled and completed two CBM wells in their Zullig Lease, located just west of Clearmont, Wyoming in Sheridan County. Both wells are completed in the Monarch coal seam, which is located at a depth of approximately 800 feet. One of the two wells was tested and produced at an initial rate of 702 Mcf (thousand cubic) per day. In addition, the Company drilled eleven other wells on the lease to a minimal depth of ten percent of their total depth in order to meet certain state requirements in reducing the well spacing from eighty acres to forty acres. Because the pipeline did not arrive during 2002, as expected, the Company did not sell any gas during the year. In January 2003, the Company entered into an agreement with Rimrock Pipeline to provide pipeline services to the Company. Pricing PRVB's average cost to drill, complete and tie-in a CBM well to existing infrastructure is estimated to be $75,000, which is below the basin's average cost of $89,000 per CBM well. The projected costs are less due to the fact that a majority of their coal seam objectives are at depths less than 800 feet. The Company anticipates that the development of its CBM assets can generate a substantial profit. Plan of Operation PRVB's short-term focus will continue to be on developing and monetizing its CBM and shallow oil assets within the Powder River Basin and to seek additional opportunities to expand its current asset base as well as pursue other acquisitions that will enhance shareholder. Marketing The Company intends to review and analyze its available options to sell at the wellhead or transport its production to the highest value markets and intends to implement those options that generate the highest overall value for the Company. The available natural gas pipelines near the Company's acreage include: Rimrock Pipeline, Bitter Creek Pipeline, Williston Basin Interstate Pipeline, Fort Union, MIGC, and Northern Pipeline. It is anticipated that no additional processing or treating will be necessary to meet pipeline specifications. Description of Properties The Company's offices are located in Dallas, Texas and it has non-exclusive use of desks and storage space and available business services. The Company's Chairman has been providing these office facilities at no cost to the Company. As of December 31, 2002 and 2001, Powder River Basin Gas Corp. had 80 to 100 percent working interests in the following CBM and shallow oil leases: Lease County Net Acres Gross Acres Bell Converse 907 907 Haefele Converse 640 640 Cranston Crook 1,934 1,934 Franklin Crook 620 1,944 Griffith(1) Crook 320 640 Griffith (2) Crook 160 320 Griffith (3) Crook 440 600 Kanode Crook 920 1,000 Olds (D-Road) Crook 200 640 Olds (Keyhole) Crook 120 480 Karmon Johnston 320 320 Noteboom Johnston 800 800 Hanft Sheridan 898 1,197 Legerski Sheridan 340 360 Robb Sheridan 1,486 2,520 Zullig Sheridan 256 320 10,361 14,622 Legal Proceedings PRVB has never been in bankruptcy, receivership or any similar legal proceeding, and is not subject to any pending legal proceedings. Powder River Basin Gas Corp. is not aware of any threatened legal proceedings. The foregoing is also true with respect to each officer, director and control shareholder as well as any entity owned by any officer, director and control shareholder, over the last five years. During 2002 the Company filed a lawsuit against a former service provider, alleging violations of Section 16 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 and Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933. In order to avoid the additional expense and uncertainty of litigation, agreed to settle and resolve all of the claims between them. As part of the settlement agreement, the Company recorded a $50,000 liability, of which, $40,000 remains outstanding at December 31, 2002. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders None during the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001. Market for Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters Market Information The common stock of Powder River Basin Gas Corp. is traded on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol PRVB. Holders Powder River Basin Gas Corp. had 20,437,833 and 19,907,833 shares of common stock outstanding as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively and had approximately 320 and 278 shareholders at the end of 2002 and 2001, respectively Dividend Policy PRVB has never paid dividends on its common stock and does not anticipate paying any dividends in the foreseeable future. Management anticipates that earnings will be retained to fund the company's working capital needs and expansion of the business. Management's Discussion and Analysis The following discussion of the Company's financial condition and the results of operations should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and Notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this document. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements. In order to comply with the terms of the safe harbor, the Company notes that in addition to the description of historical facts contained herein, this report contains certain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties as detailed herein and from time to time in the Company's other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and elsewhere. Such statements are based on management's current expectations and are subject to a number of factors and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those, described in the forward-looking statements. These factors include, among others: (a) the availability of financing or additional investment capital; (b) the retention of qualified operational management; (c) drilling and operational hazards; (d) pricing fluctuations (e) ability to develop additional reserves. The Company's operations consist primarily of exploration and development of oil and gas properties. While oil and natural gas are the principal products currently produced by the Company, the Company does not refine or process the oil and natural gas that it produces. The Company sells the gas it produces under short-term contracts at market prices in the areas in which the producing properties are located, generally at F.O.B. field prices posted by the principal purchaser of oil in such areas. Results of Operations During 2002 we discovered accounting inaccuracies in certain prior period financial statements, requiring restatement of the financial statements for these periods. We conducted an internal investigation under the direction of our Board of Directors to determine the scope and magnitude of these inaccuracies. As a result of the internal accounting investigation, our consolidated statements of operations, cash flows and stockholders' equity for the year ended December 31, 2001 and the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2001 have been restated. In addition, to give effect to accumulated prior period adjustments and their related tax impacts, and to give effect of additional treasury stock issuances during 2002, the consolidated statements of operations, cash flows and stockholders' equity for the periods ended March 31, 2002, June 30, 2002 and September 30, 2002 and the consolidated balance sheets for the periods then ended, have also been restated. Revenues The Company has not yet generated significant revenue from the sale of natural gas. This is primarily due to the fact the infrastructure required to realize these sales has not yet been extended to the Company's properties. The Company has drilled two gas wells that will produce commercially viable gas resources once the appropriate infrastructure (i.e., pipeline) is in place. The Company plans on implementing its drilling plan and begin recognizing revenues during 2003. Costs and Expenses The Company's general and administrative expenses for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 were $414,568 and $25,927, respectively, which represents 30.9% and 1.5% of total expenses. The increase is because 2002 included a full year of operations, while 2001 was a short year and did not include any management salaries and 2002 includes significant costs associated with being a public company. The Company incurred legal and professional expenses of $673,293 and $1,597,563 for the years ending December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, which amounts are not included in the general and administrative expenses noted above and represent 50.2% and 89.5% of the total expenses incurred by the Company. The decrease is because the Company completed its merger with Celebrity Sports in 2001 and incurred significant legal and professional fees in the form of common stock and treasury stock. The Company incurred lease operating expenses totaling $231,517 and $95,451 during 2002 and 2001, respectively, which represents 17.3% and 5.3% of the total expenses. In 2002, the Company drilled a few wells and performed procedures related to making several properties operational, including working with various operators in the Powder River Basin. The Company's travel expenses were $21,835 and $66,655 for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, which represents 1.6% and 3.7% of the total expenses incurred by the Company during the respective fiscal years, because 2001 included many trips between Texas and Wyoming to acquire leasehold interests, while 2002 had less such activity. In 2002, the management of the Company was unable to secure financing for the proposed drilling programs which was primarily due to general market conditions and the fact that the Chief Executive Officer, which the Company hired during 2002, resigned in the 3rd Quarter for personal reasons. The Company, however, anticipates that it will be able to raise the necessary funds to commence drilling operations on its leasehold properties during the 2003 fiscal year. Net Income (Loss) Net loss for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 were $1,344,796 and $1,786,236, respectively or $0.07 and $0.19 per share. The majority of the net loss is categorized in general and administrative expenses, lease operating costs, legal and professional services and travel, as more fully described above. Liquidity and Capital Resources Net cash used in operating activities was $241,720 and $176,967 for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Cash used in investing activities was $283,400 and $843,400 for the same periods and cash provided by investing activities was $535,353 and $1,022,690 for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The Company's working capital deficit on December 31, 2002 and 2001 was $1,094,517 and $880,271, respectively. This deficit resulted primarily from the use of short-term debt and accounts payable to finance the acquisition of leasehold interests in the Powder River Basin, which as noted above, amounted to $283,400 and $843,400 during 2002 and 2001, respectively, as well as the ongoing operations of the Company and costs associated with being a public company. The Company has no established revenue sources and continues to rely on loans from shareholders, sales of equity and other financing to sustain operations as a going concern. There is currently no agreement from any officer or shareholder to continue to provide working capital as required, to maintain operations. Non-Cash Transactions The non cash transactions for the year ended December 31, 2002 were as follows: 250,000 shares of treasury stock was issued to a vendor to satisfy an accounts payable and 630,000 shares of treasury stock were issued in January 2002 for services at $0.61 per share; 1,130,000 shares of treasury stock were issued March 2002 for services at $0.59 per share; 630,000 shares of treasury stock were issued in July 2002 for services at $0.09 per share; and 500,000 shares of common stock were issued in July 2002 to a related party for reduction of debt at $0.20 per share. The non cash transactions for the year ended December 31, 2001 were as follows: 3,350,000 shares of common stock were issued on June 13, 2001 for organizational expenses at $0.001 per share; 5,650,000 shares of common stock were issued in September, 2001 for the acquisition of Powder River Basin Gas Corp. at $0.001 per share; 5,040,000 shares of common stock were returned due to non-completion of services in connection with the acquisition of Powder River Basin Gas Corp. at $0.001 per share; 100,000 shares of common stock issued in September, 2001 for satisfaction of certain accounts payable at $0.81 per share; 560,000 shares of treasury stock were issued in October, 2001 for services at $0.81 per share; 920,000 shares of treasury stock were issued in November, 2001 for services at $1.11 per share; and 247,833 shares of common stock issued in December, 2001 to satisfy debt associated with the acquisition of oil and gas leases at $1.00 per share. Current Liabilities On December 31, 2002 and 2001, the Company had approximately $1,107,073 and $882,594, respectively, in current liabilities. $317,700 and $332,700 at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, was due Taghmen Ventures, Ltd. Mr. Gregory C. Smith, Chairman of the Company is the General Partner for Taghmen Ventures Ltd. and owns approximately 1% of Taghmen Ventures Ltd. These amounts represent funds advanced to the Company in 2001 by Taghmen Ventures, Ltd. for working capital purposes. History of Losses The Company incurred net losses of $1.3 million and $1.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Prior to 2001, the Company had no previous net losses due to its formation in 2001. The Company may continue to incur net losses during 2003 and, to the extent that it remains without operational funding, such losses may continue. Operational Management The Company currently has no operational management and will require the retention of qualified individuals in the field of oil and gas exploration in order for it to realize the full potential of its leasehold assets and therefore maximize shareholder value. The Company has been actively recruiting experienced personnel in this area and believes it has identified a management team to initiate its development plans. Need for Additional Financing for Growth The growth of the Company's business will require substantial capital on a continuing basis, and there is no assurance that any such required additional capital will be available on satisfactory terms and conditions, if at all. The Company may pursue, from time to time, opportunities to acquire oil and natural gas properties and businesses that may utilize the capital currently expected to be available for its present operations. The amount and timing of the Company's future capital requirements, if any, may depend upon a number of factors, including drilling costs, transportation costs, equipment costs, marketing expenses, staffing levels and competitive conditions, and any purchases or dispositions of assets, many of which are not within the Company's control. Failure to obtain any required additional financing could materially adversely affect the growth, cash flow and earnings of the Company. In addition, the Company's pursuit of additional capital could result in the incurrence of additional debt or potentially dilutive issuances of additional equity securities. The Company's ability to meet any future debt service obligations will be dependent upon the Company's future performance, which will be subject to oil and natural gas prices, the Company's level of production, general economic conditions and financial, business and other factors affecting the operations of the Company, many of which are beyond its control. There can be no assurance that the Company's future performance will not be adversely affected by such changes in oil and natural gas prices and/or production nor by such economic conditions and/or financial, business and other factors. In addition, there can be no assurance that the Company's business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that future bank credit will be available in an amount to enable the Company to service its indebtedness or make necessary expenditures. In such event, the Company would be required to obtain such financing from the sale of equity securities or other debt financing. There can be no assurance that any such financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company. Should sufficient capital not be available, the Company may not be able to continue to implement its business strategy. Acquisition Risks The Company's business strategy includes focused acquisitions of , and drilling operations may be curtailed, delayed or canceled as a result of a variety of factors, including unexpected drilling conditions, pressure or irregularities in formations, equipment failures or accidents, weather conditions and shortages or delays in the delivery of equipment. In addition, any use by the Company of 3-dimensional seismic and other advanced technology requires greater pre-drilling expenditures than traditional drilling strategies. There can be no assurance as to the success of the Company's future drilling activities. Geographic Concentration of Operations All of the Company's current operations are located in Wyoming. Because of this concentration, any regional events that increase costs or competition, reduce availability of equipment or supplies, reduce demand or limit production will impact the Company more adversely than if the Company was geographically diversified. Inability to Develop Additional Reserves The Company's future success as an oil and natural gas producer depends upon its ability to find, develop and acquire additional oil and natural gas reserves that are economically recoverable. Except to the extent that the Company conducts successful development activities or acquires properties containing proved reserves, the Company's proved reserves will generally decline as reserves are produced. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to locate additional reserves or that the Company will drill economically productive wells or acquire properties containing proved reserves. Certain Industry and Marketing Risks The Company's operations are subject to the risks and uncertainties associated with drilling for, producing and transporting of oil and natural gas. The Company's future ability to market its natural gas and oil production will depend upon the availability and capacity of natural gas gathering systems and pipelines and other transportation facilities. Federal and state regulation of oil and natural gas production and transportation, general economic conditions, changes in supply and in demand all could materially adversely affect the Company's ability to market its oil and natural gas production. Effects of Changing Prices The future financial condition and results of operations of the Company depend upon the prices it receives for its oil and natural gas and the costs of acquiring, developing and producing oil and natural gas. Oil and natural gas prices have historically been volatile and are subject to fluctuations in response to changes in supply, market uncertainty and a variety of additional factors that are also beyond the Company's control. These factors include, without limitation, the level of domestic production, the availability of imported oil and natural gas, actions taken by foreign oil and natural gas producing nations, the availability of transportation systems with adequate capacity, the availability of competitive fuels, fluctuating and seasonal demand for natural gas, conservation and the extent of governmental regulation of production, weather, foreign and domestic government relations, the price of domestic and imported oil and natural gas, and the overall economic environment. A substantial or extended decline in oil and/or natural gas prices could have a material adverse effect on the Company's estimated value of its natural gas and oil reserves, and on its financial position, results of operations and access to capital. The Company's ability to maintain or increase its borrowing capacity, to repay current or future indebtedness and to obtain additional capital on attractive terms is substantially dependent upon oil and natural gas prices. The Company uses the full cost method of accounting for its investment in oil and gas properties. Under the full cost method of accounting, all costs of acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas reserves are capitalized into a "full cost pool" as incurred, and properties in the pool are depleted and charged to operations using the unit-of-production method based on the ratio of current production to total proved oil and gas reserves. To the extent that such capitalized costs (net of accumulated depreciation, depletion and amortization) less deferred taxes exceed the SEC PV-10 (present value discounted at 10% as dictated by the SEC) of estimated future net cash flow from proved reserves of oil and gas, and the lower of cost or fair value of unproved properties after income tax effects, such excess costs are charged against earnings. Once incurred, a write-down of oil and gas properties is not reversible at a later date even if oil or gas prices increase. Operating Hazards and Uninsured Risks The Company's operations are subject to the risks inherent in the oil and natural gas industry, including the risks of fire, explosions, blow-outs, pipe failure, abnormally pressured formations and environmental accidents such as oil spills, gas leaks, ruptures or discharges of toxic gases, brine or well fluids into the environment (including groundwater contamination). The occurrence of any of these risks could result in substantial losses to the Company due to injury or loss of life, severe damage to or destruction of property, natural resources and, equipment, pollution or other environmental damage, clean-up responsibilities, regulatory investigation and penalties and suspension of operations. In accordance with customary industry practice, the Company maintains insurance against some, but not all, of the risks described above. There can be no assurance that any insurance maintained by the Company will be adequate to cover any such losses or liabilities. Further, the Company cannot predict the continued availability of insurance, or availability at commercially acceptable premium levels. The Company does not carry business interruption insurance. Losses and liabilities arising from uninsured or under-insured events could have a material adverse effect on the financial condition and operations of the Company. From time to time, due primarily to contract terms, pipeline interruptions or weather conditions, the producing wells in which the Company owns an interest have been subject to production curtailments. The curtailments range from production being partially restricted to wells being completely shut-in. The duration of curtailments varies from a few days to several months. In most cases the Company is provided only limited notice as to when production will be curtailed and the duration of such curtailments. The Company is not currently experiencing any material curtailment on its production. Inflation and Changing Prices The impact of inflation, as always, is difficult to assess. The Company cannot anticipate whether the present level of inflation will remain, however, a sudden increase in inflation and/or an increase in operating costs or drilling costs coupled with a reversal of current pricing could have an adverse effect on the operations of the Company. Financial Statements Contents Page Independent Auditors' Report F-2 Financial Statements Consolidated Balance Sheet F-3 Consolidated Statement of Operations F-4 Consolidated Statement of Stockholder's Equity F-5 Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows F-6 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements F-8 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT To the Stockholders and Board of Directors Powder River Basin Gas Corp. Dallas, TX We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Powder River Basin Gas Corp. as of December 31, 2002 and 2001 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the period ended December 31, 2002 and from inception on June 13, 2001 through December 31, 2001 and 2002. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Powder River Basin Gas Corp. as of December 31, 2002 and 2001 and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the period ended December 31, 2002 and from inception on June 13, 2001 through December 31, 2001 and 2002, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring operating losses and is dependent upon financing to continue operations, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans with regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. \s\ Chisholm & Associates North Salt Lake, Utah April 10, 2003 POWDER RIVER BASIN GAS CORP.

POWDER RIVER BASIN GAS CORP. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2002 and 2001 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES a. Organization The Company was incorporated under the laws of Colorado on August 27, 1999 as Celebrity Sports Network, Inc. The principal activities since inception have been organizational matters and obtaining financing. The Company was formed in an effort to broaden the scope of public appearances available to current and former professional athletes. The Company, however, changed their operations in 2001 through a reverse acquisition with Powder River Basin Gas Corp., an oil and gas company. Power River Basin Gas Corp. (PRBG) was incorporated in the state of Colorado on June 13, 2001. The Company is engaged in the business of assembling and managing a portfolio of undeveloped acreage in the Powder River basin coal bed methane (CBM) play in Sheridan County, Wyoming. This acreage is located in a proven geological setting and near operators such as Western Gas Resources, Barrett Resources, Phillips Petroleum, J.M. Huber and others. The Company has leasehold interests in 8,096.83 net acres. Two wells have been drilled on one lease and eleven additional wells have been spudded. Pursuant to a reverse acquisition and reorganization agreement, PRBG was acquired by Celebrity Sports on September 5, 2001. At the time of the acquisition, the Company changed its name to Power River Basin Gas Corp. The Company issued 9,000,000 shares of common stock for all the issued and outstanding stock of PRBG; thus, making PRBG a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Because PRBG is the accounting acquirer in the reverse acquisition, all financial history in these financial statements are that of PRBG. The Company issued 9,000,000 shares of common stock for the receipt of 9,000,000 shares of PRBG, therefore, an adjustment to the shares outstanding was necessary to reflect the other shareholders of the Company at the time of acquisition. No goodwill was recorded in the acquisition, and the purchase method of accounting was used in recording the business combination. b. Revenue and Cost Recognition The Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting. The Company has elected a December 31, year end. Powder River BAsin Gas Corp. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Oil and Gas Properties The full cost method is used in accounting for oil and gas properties. Accordingly, all costs associated with acquisition, exploration, and development of oil and gas reserves, including directly related overhead costs, are capitalized. In addition, depreciation on property and equipment used in oil and gas exploration and interest costs incurred with respect to financing oil and gas acquisition, exploration and development activities are capitalized in accordance with full cost accounting. Capitalized interest for the year ended December 31, 2002 was $0. All capitalized costs of proved oil and gas properties subject to amortization are being amortized on the unit-of-production method using estimates of proved reserves. Investments in unproved properties and major development projects not subject to amortization are not amortized until proved reserves associated with the projects can be determined or until impairment occurs. If the results of an assessment indicate that the properties are impaired, the amount of the impairment is added to the capitalized costs to be amortized. As of December 31, 2002, proved oil and gas reserves had been identified on one of the Companies oil and gas properties, however, no extraction has begun; therefore, no amortization has been recorded for the year ending December 31, 2002. All other wells are incomplete as of December 31, 2002. c. Bad Debts Bad debts on receivables are charged to expense in the year the receivable is determined uncollectible, therefore, no allowance for doubtful accounts in included in the financial statements. Amounts determined as uncollectible are not significant to the overall presentation of the financial statements. d. Basis of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Celebrity Sports Network, Inc. and PRBG. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation. e. Earnings (Loss) Per Share The computation of earnings per share of common stock is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding at the date of the financial statements. Income (Loss) Shares Per-Share (Numerator) (Denominator) Amount For the year ended December 31, 2002: Basic EPS Income (loss) to common stockholders $(1,344,796) 20,161,422 $ (0.07) =========== ============= =========== For the year ended December 31, 2001: Basic EPS Income (loss) to common stockholders $ (1,786,236) 9,341,538 $(0.19) ============ ========= ======= NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) f. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. g. Income Taxes Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes. Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss, tax credit carry-forwards, and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. 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 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. December 31, December 31, 2002 2001 Deferred tax assets: Net operation loss carry-forwards $ 3,100,000 $ 1,700,000 ------------ ----------- Total Deferred Tax Assets 1,054,000 578,000 Valuation allowance for deferred tax assets (1,054,000) (578,000) ------------ ----------- $ - $ - ============ =========== At December 31, 2002, the Company has net operating losses of $3,131,032 which expire beginning in 2022. h. Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reporting period. In these financial statements assets and liabilities involve extensive reliance on management's estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates. i. Property and Equipment In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 121, the Company records impairment of long-lived assets to be held and used or to be disposed of when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the carrying amount. At December 31, 2002 and 2001, no impairments were recognized. NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) j. Financial Instruments The recorded amounts of financial instruments, including cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and long-term debt approximate their market values as of December 31, 2002. The Company has no investments in derivative financial instruments. k. Newly Issued Pronouncements In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued two statements - Statement 141, BUSINESS COMBINATIONS, and Statement 142, GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS. Statement 141: o Eliminates the pooling method for accounting for business combinations. o Requires that intangible assets that meet certain criteria be reported separately from goodwill. o Requires negative goodwill arising from a business combination to be recorded as an extraordinary gain. Statement 142: o Eliminates the amortization of goodwill and other intangibles that are determined to have an indefinite life. o Requires, at a minimum, annual impairment tests for goodwill and other intangible assets that are determined to have an indefinite life. Upon adoption of these Statements, the Company is required to: o Re-evaluate goodwill and other intangible assets that arose from business combinations entered into before July 1, 2001. If the recorded other intangibles assets do not meet the criteria for recognition, they should be reclassified to goodwill. Similarly, if there are other intangible assets that meet the criteria for recognition but were not separately recorded from goodwill, they should be reclassified from goodwill. o Reassess the useful lives of intangible assets and adjust the remaining amortization periods accordingly. o Write-off any remaining negative goodwill. The Company completed its assessment of the effects of these new pronouncements on its financial statements and believes the effects to be immaterial. The standards were implemented by the Company in its 2002 consolidated financial statements. NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has suffered recurring operating losses and is dependent upon raising capital to continue operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. It is management's plan to raise additional funds to continue the exploration of the leases, and then to begin extracting methane to sell and generate the necessary funds to continue operations. NOTE 3 - LONG-TERM LIABILITIES Long-term liabilities are detailed in the following schedules as of December 31, 2002: Notes payable: Note payable to a company, due in total in January 2002, including interest at 10%. $ 86,400 Note payable to an individual, due in total in January 2003, including interest at 12% 25,000 Note payable to an individual, due in total in May 2003 40,000 Convertible debenture to a Company, due in total by conversion of stock, including interest at 6% 260,000 Note payable to a Company, due in total on March 2003, including interest at 7.10% 215,000 ------------ Total Notes Payable $ 626,400 ------------ NOTE 3 - LONG-TERM LIABILITIES (Continued) Notes payable - related party Note payable to Taghmen Ventures, LLC a company owned partially by Greg Smith, the Company's president, unsecured and bears no interest. $ 317,700 ------------ Total notes payable - related party 317,700 ------------ Total long-term liabilities 944,100 ------------ Less: current portion (626,400) Less: current portion-related party (317,700) ------------ Total current portion (944,100) ------------ Total Long-Term Liabilities $ - ------------ Future minimum principal payments on notes payable are as follows: 2003 $ 944,100 ------------ Total $ 944,100 NOTE 4 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS During 2001, Taghmen Ventures Ltd. advanced funds to the Company.
