These financial statements are the responsibility of the Administrative Committee; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit of these statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by the Administrative Committee, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above. We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the statement of assets available for plan benefits as of December 31, 1994 and the related statement of changes in assets available for plan benefits for the year then ended (not presented herein) and in our report dated June 9, 1995 we expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed statement of assets available for plan benefits as of December 31, 1994 and the condensed statement of changes in assets available for plan benefits for the year ended December 31, 1994, when read in conjunction with the financial statements from which it has been derived, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation thereto. Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The additional information included in schedules I and II is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is additional information required by ERISA. The fund information in the statement of assets available for benefits and the statement of changes in assets available for benefits is presented for purposes of additional analysis rather than to present the assets available for plan benefits and changes in assets available for benefits of each fund. Schedules I and II and the fund information have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

NATIONAL FUEL GAS COMPANY ------------------------- TAX-DEFERRED SAVINGS PLAN ------------------------- FOR NON-UNION EMPLOYEES ----------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ----------------------------- NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF PLAN - ---------------------------- General: ------- The following description of the National Fuel Gas Company Tax-Deferred Savings Plan For Non-Union Employees ("Plan") is provided for general information purposes, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Plan. The Plan was adopted July 26, 1984, effective as of July 1, 1984, and has been amended and restated since that time. It is subject to certain provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. Eligibility and Participation: ----------------------------- Originally, the Plan was established for the benefit of professional, administrative or executive (i.e. salaried) employees of National Fuel Gas Company and its subsidiaries ("Company"). Persons who were salaried employees on July 1, 1984, were eligible to participate at that date. Effective on various dates since July 1, 1984, most non-union non-salaried employees of the Company became eligible to participate in the Plan. New employees must complete six full months of employment and have attained age 21 in order to become eligible to participate. Contributions: ------------- Plan participants who are supervisors or executives, except those who are employed by (a) Utility Constructors, Inc. ("UCI") or (b) Seneca Resources Corporation (outside of New York or Pennsylvania) ("Seneca Resources"), may direct the Company to reduce their base salaries by a specified full percentage of at least 2% and not more than 12%. These salary reductions are subject to certain Plan and Internal Revenue Code limitations, and the Company remits them to the Plan Trustee on the participants' behalf. In addition, the Company makes an employer matching contribution for these supervisory/executive employees that ranges from 2% to 6% of the participant's base pay, depending on their years of service and rate of salary reduction contributions. No supervisory or executive employee is eligible to make future contributions to the National Fuel Gas Company Employees' Thrift Plan ("Thrift Plan"). Plan participants who are supervisors or executives and employed by UCI or Seneca Resources may direct the Company to reduce their base salaries by a specified full percentage of at least 2% and not more than 15%. All non-union, non-supervisory employees of the Company who are Plan participants may also direct the Company to reduce their base salaries by a specified full percentage of at least 2% and not more than 15%. The 15% limit is reduced by 1% for each percent of base salary contributed to the Thrift Plan. The Company makes an employer matching contribution for these employees that ranges from 1% to 3.5% of the participants' base salary, depending upon their years of service and rate of salary reduction contributions. The employer matching contributions are contributed first to the Thrift Plan to the extent permitted under the Thrift Plan, and then the remainder, if any, is contributed to the Plan. Only non-union, non-supervisory employees are eligible to make future contributions to the Thrift Plan. "Base salary" is defined in the Plan generally to mean a participant's base annual salary for a payroll period. An individual participant's salary reduction contributions to the Plan are subject to ceilings imposed by the Tax Reform Act of 1986. However, Company matching contributions are not subject to such ceilings. The ceiling was $9,240 for 1995 and will be $9,500 for 1996. Participants' accounts, including all salary reduction contributions, employer matching contributions, and the increments thereon, are at all times fully vested and nonforfeitable. Investment Alternatives for Salary Reduction Contributions: ---------------------------------------------------------- Participants may invest their salary reduction contributions in the common stock of National Fuel Gas Company ("National Stock Fund A"), the Vanguard Investment Contract Trust and/or in one or more of five mutual funds, in increments of 10%. A separate account is maintained for each participant showing his interest in each fund. The National Stock Fund A allows participants to invest their salary reduction contributions in a fund consisting primarily of National Fuel Gas Company common stock. This fund also maintains a small cash position in Vanguard Money Market Reserves and may also include receivables and/or payables for unsettled security transactions and receivables for accrued dividends. The Vanguard Investment Contract Trust invests primarily in investment contracts issued by insurance companies, commercial banks, and other similar types of fixed principal investments. Five mutual funds are currently offered by The Vanguard Group of Investment Companies: the Vanguard Index Trust-500 Portfolio, which invests in publicly-traded common stocks and attempts to duplicate the investment performance of the Standard & Poors 500 Composite Price Index; the Vanguard Money Market Reserves, Inc.-Prime Portfolio, which invests in money market instruments which mature in one year or less; the Vanguard Total Bond Market Portfolio, which invests in bonds and other "fixed-income" securities and seeks to duplicate the investment performance of the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index; the Vanguard International Equity Index Fund - Pacific Portfolio, which attempts to provide investment results paralleling those of the Morgan Stanley Capital International Pacific Index, a diversified index of common stocks of companies located in Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong and Singapore; and the Vanguard International Equity Index Fund - European Portfolio, which attempts to provide investment results that correspond to the price and yield performance of European stocks, in the aggregate, as represented by the Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe (Free) Index. Participants may, in accordance with the rules and restrictions of the Plan, transfer existing balances among the available investment funds, reduce or increase the percentage of salary reduction elected, redirect their current salary reduction contributions into different investment funds, or suspend salary reduction contributions altogether. Employer Matching Contributions: ------------------------------- Employer matching contributions are invested in a fund consisting primarily of the common stock of National Fuel Gas Company ("National Stock Fund B"). This fund also maintains a small cash position in Vanguard Money Market Reserves and may also include receivables and/or payables for unsettled security transactions and receivables for accrued dividends. A separate account is maintained for each participant showing his interest in this fund. Participants may not redirect their interests in this fund into any other fund. Withdrawals, Loans and Distributions: ------------------------------------ Plan participants (or their beneficiaries) may receive distributions from the Plan upon death, retirement, disability or other termination, in accordance with a qualified domestic relations order, or in the event of hardship, subject to the Plan's limitations and restrictions. Additionally, Plan participants may borrow from their accounts in accordance with various Plan rules. In certain cases, participants may postpone receipt of Plan distributions. Administration: -------------- National Fuel Gas Company is the Administrator of the Plan. A Tax-Deferred Savings Plan Committee appointed by National Fuel Gas Company's Board of Directors exercises National Fuel Gas Company's duties as Administrator. The assets of the Plan are held by the Trustee, Vanguard Fiduciary Trust Company ("Vanguard"). National Fuel Gas Company has the right to terminate, amend, or modify the Plan at any time. The Plan is not required to be insured by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation. NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - --------------------------------------------------- Basis of Accounting and Valuation: --------------------------------- The accounts of the Plan are maintained on the accrual basis. National Stock Funds A and B are reported on a current value basis using the quoted market value of National Fuel Gas Company common stock and the value of the cash positions and receivables at the close of the Plan year. Mutual funds are reported on a current value basis, using quoted market values of the investments at the close of the Plan year. The investment contracts in the Vanguard Investment Contract Trust are carried at fair value, which approximates contract value, as determined by the Vanguard Investment Contract Trust's Investment Committee. National Fuel Gas Company stock distributed to participants is reflected at market value at the date of distribution. Administrative Expenses: ----------------------- Expenses related to administration of the Plan and Trust are borne by the Company. The Company paid Vanguard $28,533 for services rendered in connection with the Plan and Trust for the year ended December 31, 1995. Brokerage commissions and similar costs of acquiring or selling securities (if any) that are incurred by the investment funds are borne by the participant. NOTE 3 - INCOME TAXES - --------------------- The Company received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service in December 1995 indicating that the Plan qualifies under Section 401(a) and Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been recorded. NOTE 4 - PARTIES-IN-INTEREST - ---------------------------- For the Plan years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, there were no known prohibited transactions with parties-in-interest as defined in ERISA Sections 406 and 407(a) and Internal Revenue Code Section 4975(c).
