BUSINESS. GENERAL DEVELOPMENT OF BUSINESS Meteor Industries, Inc. ("Meteor" or the "Company") was incorporated in Colorado on December 22, 1992, to purchase all the outstanding common stock of Graves Oil & Butane Co., Inc. ("Graves"). The two companies and Graves' then sole shareholder ("Seller") entered into a Purchase Agreement on June 23, 1993 and finalized the purchase on September 28, 1993. The purchase price for the common stock was $4,100,000, which was paid $1,750,000 in the form of cash to Seller and the discharge of certain of his obligations at closing and $2,350,000 in the form of a promissory note payable over the following four years. The Seller also retained preferred stock in Graves with a redemption value of $3,543,500 plus accrued dividends to be redeemed subsequent to September 15, 2000, if not earlier converted into common stock. In January 1994, the Company completed an initial public offering of 200,000 shares of its Common Stock pursuant to Regulation A under the Securities Act of 1933. The net proceeds of this offering to the Company was approximately $800,000. On June 12, 1995, Meteor purchased all of the outstanding shares of Hillger Oil Company ("Hillger") headquartered in Las Cruces, New Mexico. This acquisition has doubled Meteor's gasoline sales and improved cash flows. Hillger operates seven convenience stores and supplies twenty-seven branded dealers in New Mexico. Graves operates six retail sites and supplies thirty-eight branded dealers. In connection with the acquisition of Hillger, Meteor sold 365,000 shares of its common stock for $730,000 in cash and borrowed $875,000 from Norwest Business Credit, Inc. Meteor is implementing plans for further expansion in New Mexico. Through a joint venture, Meteor intends to build a new convenience store in the Albuquerque, New Mexico metropolitan area. In June 1995, the Company declared an 8% stock dividend to the shareholders of record as of June 30, 1995. In October 1995, the Company formed Pyramid Stores, Inc. ("Pyramid"), a Colorado corporation, as a wholly owned subsidiary to hold the stock of Graves and Hillger and operate those companies separately from the Company's other activities. Pyramid's personnel will focus their efforts and Pyramid's resources on the distribution and marketing of fuel and related products. In November 1995, the Company issued 1,745,000 shares of its Common Stock in exchange for all of the outstanding stock of Capco Resources, Inc. ("CRI"), a Delaware corporation. The shares of the Company's Common Stock issued in this transaction, which represent approximately 58% of the shares now outstanding, were issued to a U.S. subsidiary of Capco Resources Ltd. ("Capco"), an Alberta corporation, which is listed on the Alberta Stock Exchange. As a result of this transaction, there was a change in control of the Company and one of the Company's three directors was replaced by a Capco representative, Ilyas Chaudhary. Accordingly, the transaction has been considered a reverse acquisition for accounting purposes and the assets of Meteor, including the assets of Graves and Hillger have been revalued to their fair value at the date of the transaction. The major assets of CRI include: (i) an interest in Saba Power Company Ltd., which is involved in the development of a power plant in Pakistan; (ii) all of the stock of Capco Analytical Services, Inc., a California environmental services firm; and (iii) a $1,516,000 promissory note from Saba Petroleum Company and other miscellaneous assets. 2 Mr. Ilyas Chaudhary is the majority owner of Capco which is the majority owner of Saba Petroleum Company and Meteor. CRI personnel intend to focus their efforts on the financing of Saba Power Company Ltd. and to pursue other international power projects. However, CRI has no full-time employees or capital resources to devote to such efforts, and as a result such efforts will be limited to CRI's management looking for potential opportunities and presenting the opportunity to potential partners to co-develop. The Company's headquarters are located at 216 Sixteenth Street, Suite 730, Denver, Colorado 80202, and its telephone number is (303) 572-1135. SABA POWER COMPANY LTD. Saba Power Company Ltd. ("Saba Power") is a limited liability corporation in Pakistan which was established in early 1995 to pursue development of a power plant project in Pakistan. The Government of Pakistan recognized all of the owners of Saba Power when it accepted the financing documents to which CRI is a party. CRI has an interst in Saba Power, which has a power plant project 40 miles from Lahore, Pakistan. Its venture partner is Cogen Technologies of Houston, Texas ("Cogen"). Estimated costs for the 115 megawatt plant are approximately $144,000,000. The project received a Letter of Support dated September 18, 1994, and an acknowledgment of financial closing on April 3, 1996, from the Ministry of Water & Power of the Government of Pakistan. All documentation relating to the project's permanent debt financing was approved in May of 1996 and all documentation relating to the construction financing is expected to be signed in August of 1996. Construction of the project is expected to be commenced by September of 1996 and completed in late 1998. However, these dates are tentative and subject to various potential events beyond the control of the venture partners. The Pakistan power project will not provide any significant cash flow to the Company for approximately three to four years and the Company's cash flow from the project is limited to its percentage ownership in Saba Power. The economic growth in Pakistan combined with the constraints on the public sector budget has led to a significant shortfall in the electric power supply in Pakistan. The current total installed capacity of the country is approximately 10,800 megawatts ("MW") for a population of 135 million people. With electricity being available to only 40% of the population, and the annual demand growing at 8% to 10% per year, the situation represents a high degree of additional suppressed demand. Approximately 35% of existing power generation in the public sector is based on hydro-electric power which varies significantly over the year. At peak times in the dry season which lasts for 4-5 months, the shortfall reaches as much as 2,500 MW. In recognition of this situation, the Government of Pakistan embarked on a program to solicit private investment in the electric sector approximately 7 years ago. Over the years, successive governments have strengthened the private power policy in many ways. In early 1994, the present government codified all these developments and issued a new Policy Framework for Private Power which brought significant response from investors and developers around the world. The Government of Pakistan then issued approvals to a limited number of projects including the Saba Power project. Saba Power has executed an agreement to sell all capacity and energy from the project under a 30 year power purchase agreement to the Pakistan Water and Power Development Authority. A fuel supply agreement has been executed with the Pakistan State Oil Company and an implementation agreement has been executed with the Government of Pakistan. 3 The facility is being developed by Cogen, a privately held independent power developer based in Houston. Cogen is the largest privately held power generation company in the United States with approximately 1,500 MW of net electric generation capacity under ownership from six operating plants and over 3,000 MW of new projects in development in the United States, Latin America and Asia. It is also among the 10 largest non-utility electric generators worldwide. Construction operations and maintenance of the facility has been contracted for through internationally recognized contractors. Such activities will be overseen by Cogen. The plant will use a conventional oil burning steam generator and is designed to meet environmental emissions criteria in accordance with World Bank standards. The project is currently located approximately 3 miles before the town of Farouqabad just off the Sheikhupura - Sargodha road, which is a local highway branching off the main north-south national highway in the province of Punjab. This site is approximately 40 miles west of the city of Lahore and approximately 7 miles west of the city of Sheikhupura. The site is bounded by the rail tracks on the north, a drainage channel on the east, a 132 kilovolt transmission line on the south and partially cultivated farmland on the east. The site lies in an area which has ground water at shallow depths. The capitalization of Saba Power has been structured to include approximately $43 million equity funding and the balance of approximately $101 million will be raised as non-recourse project finance debt. The total $144,000,000 cost of the project incudes development costs and various reserves. In June of 1995, CRI entered into a Project Development and Share- holders Agreement (the "Project Agreement") with Cogen and the two other par- ticipants in this project. The Project Agreement called for CRI to assign to Saba Power all of its interest in the Letter of Support, obtained from the Government of Pakistan. It also defines the relationship between the par- ticipants concerning management duties and equity requirements. Cogen, as the largest shareholder of Saba Power has agreed to carry on the day-to-day operations and will have control of the Board of Directors. Cogen has the primary responsibility for design, engineering, hiring of consultants, selec- tion of equipment, award of contracts, project financing, permitting, con- tracting and overseeing of construction and operations. A third party opera- tor has been hired for actual operations and maintenance of the power plant. Pursuant to this contract, budgets have been developed and approved by all parties. Notwithstanding the fact that Cogen controls the Saba Power Board of Directors, approval by all parties to the above Project Agreement is required to: 1) change the equity of the participants; 2) expand the business of Saba Power to activities other than related to the project; 3)merge or consolidate Saba Power with another company; 4) sell all or a substantial portion of Saba Power's assets; 5) file bankruptcy; 6) determine the terms of a public offering of Saba Power's stock; and 7) change the approved construction budget. In addition, the parties have agreed that CRI will not sell its interest in Saba Power unless it gives Cogen the prior right to purchase on the same terms and conditions. Pursuant to the original Project Agreement, with Cogen and the other shareholders of Saba Power, CRI was to make a $9,050,000 equity investment in order to fund a 25% interest in the project and the other shareholders were to 4 make a $27,150,000 equity investment for a 75% interest. The rest of the financing required to construct the power plant project is to be financed by Saba Power with limited recourse bank debt. In August 1996, CRI negotiated an amendment to the Project Development and Shareholder's Agreement. This agreement allows CRI to make approximately a $1,700,000 equity investment in the Pakistan power project in exchange for approximately an 8% interest in Saba Power. Cogen and the other shareholders in Saba Power will fund the remaining 92% equity commitment. In addition, CRI will have an option with Cogen (the "Project Option") to increase its interest in Saba Power by an additional 9.93% for 750 days. If the Company chooses to fully exercise such Project Option, it will have to invest approximately $4,400,000 plus "interest" accruing at 14% per annum during the period in which the option remains unexercised. CRI can take advantage of this Project Option to a lesser degree by making a proportionately smaller equity investment. If total project costs are more than $144,000,000, CRI has the option to maintain its percentage ownership of Saba Power by investing its proportionate share or to reduce its ownership percentage proportionately by not investing additional funds. The Company may use a portion of the proceeds of this offering to make an additional investment under the Project Option. In August 1996, CRI entered into an agreement with Saba Petroleum Company ("Saba") whereby Saba, a related party, is participating with CRI in the Pakistan power project. Saba has agreed to invest $500,000 for a 2.3% interest in Saba Power. Saba has no interest in the Project Option. As a result of the above described agreements CRI will invest approximately $1,200,000 for a 5.7% interest in Saba Power and CRI has retained its Project Option to increase its interest up to approximately 15.6%. As of September 1996, CRI had invested approximately $546,000 and Cogen and the other shareholders of Saba Power have invested approximately $6,000,000. Meteor will provide the necessary funds for the remainder of CRI's 5.7% equity commitment from cash on hand and expects the partial collection ($500,000) on its note receivable from Saba Petroleum Company. CRI has a commitment outstanding for $75,000 as a finders fee to an unaffiliated party due upon completion of the project of which one half is to be reimbursed by one of the other shareholders of Saba Power. On July 14, 1996, the Government of Pakistan gave notice to Saba Power that Saba Power was in default of certain provisions in the Implementation Agreement which required construction of the power project to start by July 3, 1996. The Implementation Agreement and the notice states that Saba Power has 90 days from the date of the notice to cure such default. In early August 1996, Saba Power and the shareholders thereof completed the final negotiations with the project's construction lenders. The construction lenders are the Export-Import Bank of the United States; The Sanwa Bank, Limited as Eurocurrency Facility Agreement and as a lender; ABN Amro Bank N.V., Singapore Branch, as Inter-Creditor Agreement and as a lender; and ABN Amro North America, Inc., as agent for ABN Amro Bank N.V., Chicago Branch, as Eximbank facility agent. On August 20, 1996, the Engineering Procurement and Construction Contractor for Saba Power was released to commence construction activities on the project. When certain consents are obtained from the Government of Pakistan, which consents relate to the construction loan documents, construction activities will commence and the default would then be cured. It is anticipated what such consents will be obtained and construction will begin by mid October, 1996. 5 Assuming: 1) the power plant is built to specifications; and 2) the plant has the ability to produce the expected output of electricity, the Government of Pakistan has agreed to pay for a certain percentage of its capacity whether or not such electricity is ever produced or sold. Because of these contractual rights from the Government of Pakistan, CRI is relatively confident that the estimated projected cash flow stream from this project prepared for the project lenders are based upon reasonable assumptions. CAPCO ANALYTICAL SERVICES CRI established Capco Analytical Services, Inc., a California corporation ("CAS"), as an environmental services subsidiary pursuant to an acquisition in April 1994. CAS provides petroleum and other industrial concerns with environmental laboratory analysis. This subsidiary presently has 14 employees. CAS intends to expand the scope of its present activities to include the acquisition of properties in need of remediation and development. CAS will then arrange for remediation services to be performed. After the property is remediated, it will be developed by CAS or sold to a developer. CAS intends to fund these projects at least partially with project capital raised through partnerships or other private investment vehicles. PETROLEUM MARKETING BUSINESS AND OPERATIONS The Company operates its petroleum marketing and convenience store business primarily from its Farmington and Las Cruces, New Mexico headquarters. The Company operates this business through two New Mexico subsidiaries, Hillger Oil Company and Graves Oil & Butane Co., Inc. The Company also has operations in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The commercial/wholesale operations are the largest part of the Company's business. This operation has fuel delivery contracts with customers that include truck stops, retail gasoline service stations, convenience stores, construction companies, commercial fleet distribution centers, the federal government, coal mining companies, and power plants in both New Mexico and Arizona. The wholesale operation has "distribution agreements" with Phillips Petroleum Company, Sun Oil Company, Conoco, Inc., Texaco, Inc., Diamond Shamrock and Fina Oil Company. These distribution agreements allow the Company to purchase petroleum products at wholesale prices directly from pipeline terminals and refiners controlled by these large oil producers. The Company is then authorized to resell those products to its customers. The distribution agreements have three-year terms and the Company has two years remaining on its agreements with its primary suppliers, Phillips 66 and Conoco, Inc. The distribution agreements do not provide for an exclusive territory and can be terminated by either party upon 30 days notice. There can be no assurance that these agreements will not have to be renegotiated or that they will be renewed. Although the Company, through its subsidiaries, is one of the largest and longest standing wholesale distributors of Conoco and Phillips products in New Mexico, it is possible it could lose such contracts. In such an event, the Company's operations may be adversely impacted. Management would attempt to persuade the retail outlets the Company supplies to switch to another major oil company brand with which it has a contract. The Company could also buy and sell fuel as an unbranded independent, however, 6 sales volumes would most likely decrease significantly if the Company did not have access to branded products. Many of the Company's wholesale customers operate retail gasoline service stations under the banners of the various oil companies. The banner arrangements require that a retail operator purchase fuel exclusively from a distributor or "jobber" who is authorized to sell branded products. On occasion the Company has supplied new signage and other improvements to retailers so they would switch to a Company brand. The Company's suppliers may subsidize such improvements by providing discounts to the Company or by forgiving certain obligations based on the volume of product sold to such retailer. The Company also markets its products to commercial and governmental accounts. The marketing department consists of twelve people. The marketing department is primarily responsible for the direct selling efforts of the Company and for ensuring that customers accounts are properly serviced. The majority of the wholesale division's sales are repeat telephone orders from existing customers. The Company also advertises in trade journals and attends industry trade shows in its market. The distribution process of the wholesale division is straightforward. The distribution channel begins with the loading of the Company's trucks at pipeline terminals or refineries. When delivered in transport quantities, the trucks deliver the inventory directly to the wholesale customer with no intermediate storage of fuel other than trucks en route to a customer. The distribution process for bulk fuel products, from pick-up to delivery to customers, is typically complete in two days or less. Most of the Company's wholesale customers in the three major regional markets, Farmington, Albuquerque, and Las Cruces, have been with the Company for many years. No customer accounts for more than 10% of the Company's sales, however, the loss of one or more major wholesale customers could have a significant impact on the Company's revenues. The retail operations have an ownership or leasehold interest in 15 retail outlets which include service stations, convenience stores and lube pits. The retail operation represents a potential growth area for the Company. The retail outlets sell gasoline, propane and other petroleum products directly to the general public. The services provided are those that would generally be expected to be provided at this type of facility. The retail outlets also sells food and tobacco products as a convenience to its customers. Other than at the convenience stores, non-petroleum products sales are not a material part of retail revenues. The Company's highest volume convenience stores are located in the Las Cruces and Albuquerque areas. The Company intends to expand its convenience store base by acquisition and new construction in the Albuquerque area. The Company has four automated cardlock facilities. The cardlock systems provide 24-hour-per-day access to fuel dispensing facilities for commercial fleet customers and customers with automated debit cards. The cardlock systems do not require that a Company employee to be present to process the fuel purchase. The cardlock facilities are primarily used by commercial fleet operators in order to take advantage of automated transaction process technology which allows a user to insert a "user card" activating the fuel dispenser and records the transaction. The Company's strategy contemplates increasing the number of cardlock facilities that the Company owns or controls. 7 The Company also has a propane and alternative fuels operations. In November 1993, Graves reentered the residential propane and alternative fuels business in Farmington, New Mexico. Graves' management and employees have significant experience in the propane industry and the Company had a substantial amount of propane equipment that was underutilized. A significant percentage of the homes and commercial buildings in the Farmington area do not have access to natural gas lines and must rely on propane for heating. Management of the Company believes that the residential propane market provides a significant opportunity for growth. As of the date of this registration statement, Graves has over 300 residential propane customers and continues to actively market this product and service. Recently, Graves became a 33% owner of a residential propane company in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Management of Graves is actively seeking other propane opportunities in Southern Colorado and New Mexico. Due to increasing government incentives and regulatory mandates, both public and private sector fleets are being converted to clean fuels. Certain Graves employees have experience converting gasoline powered vehicles to run on propane. Graves offers conversion services to fleets located in Farmington. Graves offers both propane conversions and compressed natural gas conversions. In addition, three propane motor fuel dispensers are owned by Graves and located at Graves' retail outlets. INSURANCE The Company has a commercial liability policy and an umbrella policy with a coverage limit of $5,000,000 as well as other policies covering damage to its properties. These policies cover Company facilities, employees, equipment, inventories, and vehicles in all states of operation. While Management believes the Company's insurance coverage is adequate for most foreseeable problems, and is comparable with the coverage of other companies in the same business and of similar size, its coverage does not protect the Company for most liabilities relating to damage of the environment. Such environmental related coverage is generally unavailable or available only at a prohibitive cost. COMPETITION The petroleum marketing business is highly competitive. The Company competes on the basis of price, service and corporate capabilities. In all phases of its operations, the Company encounters strong competition from a number of companies, including some very large companies. Many of these larger competitors possess and employ financial and personnel resources substantially in excess of those which are available to the Company. The Company's marketing division also competes with integrated oil companies which in some cases own or control a majority of their own marketing facilities. These major oil companies may offer their products to the Company's competitors on more favorable terms than those available to the Company from its suppliers. A significant number of companies, including integrated oil companies and petroleum products distribution companies, distribute petroleum products through a larger number of facilities than the Company. The wholesale distribution of petroleum products is a highly competitive industry. This competition generally comes from other privately held petroleum jobbers operating in the same geographic region as the Company. The competition is primarily focused on the government contract and commercial fleet segments of the business. The government contract business is awarded via a lowest sealed bid process and the Company competes heavily with several 8 wholesale distributors. Competition also occurs for the gasoline service station customers. In competing for this segment of the business, a customer must be convinced to change the "brand" of the station (i.e., convert from Phillips 66 to Texaco). A change of brands can be expensive and disruptive to the operations of the gasoline service station and therefore does not occur frequently. Competition in the retail segment of the gasoline distribution industry is severe and highly decentralized. Competition comes from numerous gasoline service stations that have different brands and from many independent unbranded stations. The Company competes for retail customers based on brand loyalty and price. The Company attempts to develop brand loyalty as a result of the friendly service it provides to its customers. To the extent that the customer does not have brand loyalty, then the Company competes on price. The Company does not attempt to be a price leader, but instead changes prices to meet competitive prices. The convenience store industry is highly competitive, fragmented and regionalized. It is characterized by a few large companies, some medium-sized companies, and many small independent companies. Several competitors are substantially larger and have greater resources than the Company. The Company's largest competitors include Seven-Eleven, Diamond Shamrock, Thriftway, and Circle K. The Company also competes with other convenience stores, small supermarkets, grocery stores and major and independent gasoline distributors who have converted units to convenience stores. The Company also will encounter competition in attempting to acquire sites for new stores and existing groups of convenience stores. ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES Various federal and state statutes are designed to identify environmental damage, identify hazardous material and operations, regulate operations engaged in hazardous activities, and establish procedures for remedial action. The Company is inspected on a regular basis by both federal and state environmental authorities. The Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") and the State of New Mexico have instituted environmental compliance regulations designed to prevent leakage and contamination from underground storage tanks. The Company continually expends capital when complying with changing environmental regulations and expects to spend about $60,000 a year on environmental compliance. The State of New Mexico has established the Ground Water Protection Act for the clean up of contaminated underground sites. Under most circumstances, the Company's exposure is limited to $10,000 per location, beyond which the state clean-up fund assumes responsibility. Assistance is not available to repair or replace underground tanks or equipment. The law specifies requirements which must have been met for an applicant to be eligible, includes a provision that payments will be made in accordance with regulations (which have not yet been issued) and states that payment from the corrective action fund are limited to amounts in that fund. There can be no assurance that the New Mexico fund will have sufficient capital, or will agree, to fund remediation of any particular problem. In addition, in connection with Company's purchase of the Graves' common stock, the Seller agreed to indemnify the Company for seven years against environmental related problems which may arise from activities conducted prior to the acquisition. The indemnification is not effective unless damages exceed a minimum of $25,000 per year and the maximum aggregate indemnification responsibility of Seller over the seven years is $8,000,000. 9 ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE. The Company's Regulated Environmental Activities are subject to an extensive variety of evolving United States federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations governing the storage, transportation, manufacture, use, discharge, release and disposal of product and contaminants into the environment, or otherwise relating to the protection of the environment. A non-exclusive listing of the environmental laws which potentially impact the Company's Regulated Environmental Activities is set out below: RESOURCE CONSERVATION AND RECOVERY ACT OF 1976, AS AMENDED IN 1984 ("RCRA"). The United States Congress enacted RCRA in 1976 and amended it in 1984. RCRA established a comprehensive regulatory framework for the management of hazardous wastes at active facilities. RCRA creates a "cradle to grave" system for managing hazardous wastes. Those who generate, transport, treat, store or dispose of waste above certain quantities are required to undertake certain performance, testing and record keeping. The 1984 amendments to RCRA known as "HSWA" increased the scope of RCRA to regulate small quantity hazardous waste generators and waste oil handlers and recyclers as well as require the identification and regulation of underground storage tanks in which liquid petroleum or hazardous substances were stored. HSWA and its implementing regulations require the notification to designated state agencies of the existence and condition of regulated underground storage tanks and impose design, construction and installation requirements; leak detection, presentation, reporting, and cleanup requirements; tank closure and removal requirements; and fiscal responsibility requirements. COMPREHENSIVE ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSE, COMPENSATION AND LIABILITY ACT OF 1980 ("CERCLA" or "Superfund") AS AMENDED IN 1982. CERCLA established the Superfund program to clean up inactive sites at which hazardous substances had been released. Superfund has been interpreted to create strict, joint and several liability for the costs of removal and remediation, other necessary response costs and damages for injury to natural resources. Superfund liability extends to generators of hazardous substances, as well as to (i) the current owners and operators of a site at which hazardous substances were disposed; (ii) any prior owner or operator of the site at the date of disposal; and (iii) waste transporters who selected such facilities for treatment or disposal of hazardous substances. CERCLA allows the EPA to investigate and remediate contaminated sites and to recover the costs of such activities (response costs), as well as damages to natural resources, from parties specified as liable under the statute. CERCLA also authorizes private parties who incur response costs to seek recovery from statutorily liable parties. CERCLA was amended by the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986 ("SARA"). SARA provides a separate funding mechanism for the clean up of underground storage tanks. CERCLA excludes petroleum including crude oil or any fraction thereof, with certain limitations from the definition of "hazardous substances" for which liability for clean up of a contaminated site will attach. This exclusion also applies to those otherwise hazardous substances which are inherent in petroleum, but not to those added to or mixed with petroleum products. THE CLEAN WATER ACT OF 1972, AS AMENDED (the "Clean Water Act"). The Clean Water Act establishes water pollutant discharge standards applicable to many basic types of manufacturing facilities and imposes standards on municipal sewage treatment plants. The Clean Water Act requires states to set water quality standards for significant bodies of water within their boundaries and to ensure attainment and/or maintenance of those standards. Many industrial and governmental facilities must apply for and obtain discharge permits, monitor pollutant discharges and under certain conditions 10 reduce certain discharges. The Clean Water Act also requires pre-treatment of certain discharges prior to release into a publicly owned treatment works. FEDERAL OIL POLLUTION ACT OF 1990 ("OPA"). The OPA amends the Clean Water Act and expands the liability for the discharge of oil into navigable waters. Liability is triggered by discharge or substantial threat of a discharge of oil into navigable waters. OPA defines three classes of parties subject to liability: (1) owners, operators, and persons chartering vessels; (2) lessees and permitees of areas where off-shore facilities are located; and (3) owners and operators of on-shore facilities. THE CLEAN AIR ACT OF 1970, AS AMENDED (the "Clean Air Act"). The Clean Air Act required the EPA to establish and ensure compliance with national ambient air quality standards ("NAAQS") for certain pollutants. The NAAQS generally are to be achieved by the individual states through state implementation plans ("SIPs"). SIPs typically attempt to meet the NAAQS by, among other things, regulating the quantity and quality of emissions from specific industrial sources. As required by the Clean Air Act, the EPA also has established regulations that limit emissions of specified hazardous air pollutants and has established other regulations that limit emissions from new industrial sources within certain source categories. The Clean Air Act was amended extensively in 1990, to, among other things, impose additional emissions standards that must be implemented by the EPA through regulations. THE TOXIC SUBSTANCES CONTROL ACT OF 1976 ("TSCA"). TSCA authorizes the EPA to gather information on the risks of chemicals, and to monitor and regulate the manufacture, distribution, processing, use and disposal of many chemicals. The Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act ("EPCRA"). EPCRA was passed as a part of SARA. EPCRA resulted from several widely-publicized events which focused national attention on the dangers posed by toxic chemicals present at U.S. industrial facilities. EPCRA requires emergency planning notification, emergency release notification, and reports with respect to the storage and release of specified chemicals. Industry must provide information to communities regarding the presence of extremely hazardous substances at facilities within those communities. THE OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH ADMINISTRATION ACT ("OSHA"). OSHA regulates exposure to toxic substances and other forms of workplace pollution. The Department of Labor administers OSHA. OSHA specifies maximum levels of toxic substance exposure. OSHA also sets out a "right-to-know" rule which requires that workers be informed of, and receive training relating to, the physical and health hazards posed by hazardous materials in the workplace. OTHER STATE AS WELL AS LOCAL GOVERNMENT REGULATION. Many states have been authorized by the EPA to enforce regulations promulgated under various federal statutes. In addition, there are numerous other state as well as local authorities that regulate the environment, some of which impose more stringent environmental standards than Federal laws and regulations. The penalties for violations of state laws vary but typically include injunctive relief, recovery of damages for injury to air, water or property, and fines for non-compliance. REGULATORY STATUS AND POTENTIAL ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITY. The operations and facilities of the Company are subject to numerous federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations including those described above, as well as associated permitting and licensing requirements. The Company regards compliance with applicable environmental regulations as a critical component 11 of its overall operation and devotes significant attention to protecting the health and safety of its employees and to protecting the Company's facilities from environmental problems. Management believes that the Company has obtained or applied for all permits and approvals required under existing environmental laws and regulations to operate its current business. In light of coverage of New Mexico's reimbursement fund and the indemnification of the Company by the Seller, Management does not believe that any pending or threatened environmental litigation or enforcement action(s) could materially and adversely affect the Company's business. While the Company has implemented, where appropriate, operating procedures at each of its facilities designed to assure compliance with environmental laws and regulation, given the nature of its business, the Company always is subject to environmental risks and the possibility remains that the Company's ownership of its facilities and its operations and activities could result in civil or criminal enforcement and public as well as private action(s) against the Company, which may necessitate or generate mandatory clean up activities, revocation of required permits or licenses, denial of application for future permits, or significant fines, penalties or damages, any and all of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company. EMPLOYEE RELATIONS The Company employs approximately 150 people, none of whom is represented by any collective bargaining organizations. Management considers its employee relations to be satisfactory at the present time. ITEM 2. FINANCIAL INFORMATION. PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS The accompanying pro forma consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1995, combines the consolidated operations of Meteor for the year ended December 31, 1995 (which includes the operations of Meteor beginning November 2, 1995, and the operations of CRI for the entire year), the operations of Hillger Oil Company ("Hillger") for the three months ended March 31, 1995, and the operations of Meteor for the ten months ended October 31, 1995.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Effective November 2, 1995, Meteor acquired CRI. The acquisition was treated as a reverse acquisition of Meteor by CRI. Accordingly, the historical accounts of CRI are reflected in the financial statements, so comparisons with prior year are not very meaningful. Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $856,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1996 compared to a use of funds of $10,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1995. The increase in cash provided is primarily related to increases in net income and accounts payable. As of March 31, 1996, the Company had a working capital deficit of $243,000 compared to a working capital deficit of $214,000 at December 31, 1995. The principal increase in the working capital deficit is due to additional taxes payable. Net cash used by investing activities totaled $95,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1996, compared to a use of $3,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1995. The increase in cash used is for equipment purchases in 1996. Because of the Company's continued expansion and development efforts, the Company's liquidity requirements have increased and are expected to continue to increase as a result of the need to reduce the Company's existing debt related to prior acquisitions. Net cash used by financing activities totaled $726,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1996 compared to a use of $0 for the three months ended March 31, 1995. The use is primarily related to payments on short term debt. The Company has two revolving bank credit facilities with Norwest Business Credit, Inc. - one for $3,000,000 and one for $1,500,000. The credit lines are subject to the borrowing base of the Company's subsidiaries, as defined and on March 31, 1996, $1,475,000 and $44,000 were borrowed against the facilities. The Company has been in default on timely filing of information with the lender. Rather than change the due dates of various reports the lender has waived this requirement in the past and has indicated they will probably waive it in the future if the Company is late in filing. The Company has been current the past several months, but because of the short time periods may be in default in the future. The Company has a term loan with a New Mexico bank which is due in January, 1998 and a term loan with Norwest Business Credit, Inc which is due in June, 1998. The balances at March 31, 1996, were $437,000 and $304,000, respectively. The loans are collateralized by real estate and buildings and equipment and require approximately $29,000 per month in payments. A subsidiary of the Company has preferred stock outstanding which requires no periodic payments but accrues an 8% dividend and must be redeemed for $3,543,500 plus accrued dividends at the holders request any time after September 15, 2000 unless earlier converted into common stock pursuant to its terms. This preferred stock is treated as a minority interest on the balance sheet and recorded at its discounted value. 15 The Company owes the founder of one of its subsidiaries $1,958,000 payable in semi-annual installments of $200,000 which includes principal and interest calculated at 2 percentage points in excess of Citibank's prime rate. All previously unpaid principal and interest is due October 1, 1997. It is anticipated that $425,000 will be offset by payments on notes receivable from the founder also due October 1, 1997. The Company is obligated to pay lease costs of approximately $61,000 monthly for land, building, facilities, and equipment. In order to pay its obligations, the interest on such obligations and other expenses, the Company must generate cash flow from operations which exceed that which were achieved in the past. In addition, even if historical cash flow is exceeded throughout the terms of its obligations, the Company will probably be required to raise capital or refinance its existing debt in order to pay its obligations as they become due. In June 1996, the Company reaffirmed a Letter of Intent with an underwriter concerning a proposed second public offering of the Company's Common Stock. Under the terms of the Letter of Intent, the proposed offering would be for at least $2 million on a "firm commitment" basis. Such offering is expected to occur during the third quarter of 1996, subject to a number of contingencies including a registration statement to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission becoming effective. The Company utilizes underground tanks at various locations to store petroleum products and is therefore subject to various federal and state statutes concerning environmental protection, as well as the New Mexico Ground Water Protection Act. The various federal and state statutes are designed to identify environmental damage, identify hazardous material and/or operations, regulate operations engaged in hazardous activities, and establish procedures for remedial action as necessary. The state of New Mexico has recognized the potential cleanup costs resulting from regulations, and the New Mexico Ground Water Protection Act has included the establishment of a corrective action fund. The purpose of the fund is to provide monetary assistance in both assessing site damage and correcting the damage where such costs are in excess of $10,000. Assistance is not available to repair or replace underground tanks or equipment. The law specifies requirements which must have been met for an applicant to be eligible, including a provision that payments will be made in accordance with regulations (which have not yet been issued), and states that payment from the corrective action fund are limited to amounts in that fund. The Company is responsible for any contamination of land it owns or leases; however, the Company's responsibilities may be limited as a result of possible claims for reimbursement from third parties. The Company maintains detailed inventory records and performs tank and line tightness tests on a regular basis on all underground storage tanks. Management has assessed the environmental contingencies and does not anticipate any potential liabilities that will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operation, or liquidity of the Company. The Pakistan power project will not provide any significant cash flow to the Company for approximately three to four years. In August 1996, CRI negotiated an amendment to the Project Development and Shareholder's Agreement. This agreement allows CRI to make approximately a $1,700,000 equity investment in the Pakistan power project in exchange for approximately an 8% 16 interest in Saba Power. In addition, CRI will have an option (the "Project Option") to increase its interest in Saba Power by an additional 9.93% for 750 days. If the Company chooses to fully exercise such Project Option, it will have to invest approximately $4,400,000 plus "interest" accruing at 14% per annum during the period in which the option remains unexercised. CRI can take advantage of this Project Option to a lesser degree by making a proportionately smaller equity investment. In August 1996, CRI entered into an agreement with Saba Petroleum Company ("Saba") whereby Saba, a related party, is participating with CRI in the Pakistan power project. Saba has agreed to invest $500,000 for a 2.3% interest in Saba Power. Saba has no interest in the Project Option. As a result of the above described agreements CRI will invest approximately $1,200,000 for a 5.7% interest in Saba Power and CRI has retained its Project Option to increase its interest up to approximately 15.6%. As of June 30, 1996, CRI had invested approximately $302,000. Meteor will provide with the necessary funds for the remainder of the Saba Power equity commitment from the proceeds of a private placement of Meteor's Common Stock completed in June 1996 and expects the partial collection ($500,000) on its note receivable from Saba Petroleum Company. CRI has a commitment outstanding for $75,000 as a finders fee to an unaffiliated party due upon completion of the project of which one half is to be reimbursed by one of the other shareholders of Saba Power. On July 14, 1996, the Government of Pakistan gave notice to Saba Power that Saba Power was in default of certain provisions in the Implementation Agreement which required construction of the power project to start by July 3, 1996. The Implementation Agreement and the notice states that Saba Power has 90 days from the date of the notice to cure such default. In early August 1996, Saba Power and the shareholders thereof completed the final negotiations with the project's construction lender. When certain consents are obtained from the Government of Pakistan, which consents relate to the construction loan documents, construction activities will commence and the default would then be cured. It is anticipated what such consents will be obtained and construction will begin by mid-October, 1996. In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of" ("FAS No. 121"). The standard requires the recognition of an impairment loss on certain identifiable intangible assets and long-lived assets in use or held for disposal when events or circumstances indicate the carrying value of these assets may not be recoverable or exceeds their fair value. At this time, the Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 121 to have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock- Based Compensation" ("SFAS No. 123"). The standard encourages, but does not require, companies to recognize compensation expense for grants of stock, stock options and other equity instruments to employees based on fair value accounting rules. The standard requires companies that choose not to adopt the new fair value accounting rules to disclose pro forma net income and earnings per share under the new method. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995. The Company will adopt only the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123 in 1996. 17 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 TO MARCH 31, 1995 The Company is primarily engaged in the business of marketing and distributing refined petroleum and related products employing wholesale, convenience store operations and environmental services. The following table sets forth, for the three month period ended March 31, 1996 and 1995 certain items of the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Percentage of Sales 1996 1995 1995 (Pro Forma) Net Sales 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% Cost of Sales 83.2% --% 81.8% Gross Profit 16.8% 100.0% 18.2% Selling, General & Administrative Expenses 14.6% 155.8% 17.8% Depreciation Expense 1.7% --% 1.0% Other Income and expenses 2.0% --% .6% Income Taxes 0.5% --% --% Minority Interest .7% --% .7% Net Income (loss) from continuing operations 1.3% (55.8)% .7% _______________ The pro forma operations for the quarter ended March 31, 1995 combines the operations of Meteor for the quarter ended February 28, 1995, the operations of Hillger for the three months ended March 31, 1995, and the operations of CRI for the three months ended March 31, 1995.
The Company's sales for the three months ended March 31, 1996, were $13,386,000 compared to $165,000 for the comparable period ending March 31, 1995 and $14,279,000 on a pro forma basis. The reduction in revenue on a pro forma basis is due to a reduction in sales at Graves of $582,000, Hillger of $365,000 and an increase of $54,000 at CAS. The reduction in revenue at Graves is primarily related to fewer diesel gallons sold to the construction and oil field sectors in the Farmington, New Mexico area. Graves is unable to determine if this is a trend or related to an abnormal year for construction and oil field exploration. The reduction in sales at Hillger is primarily related to the elimination of unprofitable business. The increase in revenues at CAS is due to additional lab analysis which trend is expected to continue throughout the remainder of the year. The Company's cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 1996, were $11,135,000 compared to $0 for the comparable period ended March 31, 1995, and $11,680,000 on a pro forma basis. The reduction in costs of sales on a pro forma basis is due to a reduction in sales as discussed above. The Company's gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 1996, was $2,250,000 compared to $165,000 for the comparable period ended March 31, 1995 and $2,599,000 on a pro forma basis. The reduction is principally 18 related to lower sales and a reduction in gasoline margins as the cost of gasoline rose faster than the retail price. The Company's selling, general and administrative expenses were $1,961,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1996, compared to $257,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1995 and $2,685,000 on a pro forma basis. The reduction in expenses on a pro forma basis is related to combining the operations of Hillger and Graves and realizing the benefits of overhead reduction and reduction of certain operating costs. The Company's depreciation for the three months ended March 31, 1996, was $221,000 compared to $0 for the comparable period ended March 31, 1995 and $148,000 on a pro forma basis. The increase in depreciation expense is due principally to the set up in basis of property due to the reverse acquisition. The Company's other income for the three months ended March 31, 1996 was $263,000 compared to $0 for the comparable period ended March 31, 1995 and $85,000 on a pro forma basis. The reasons for the increase are primarily related to a reduction in interest income of $16,000 related to receipt of some note receivable payments and fewer old receivables, a reduction in interest expense of $19,000 due to a reduction in long term debt, a reduction of $106,000 in sale of assets and a one-time refund of a petroleum product loading fee in 1996 of approximately $250,000. The Company's income from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 1996 was $173,000 compared to a loss from continuing operations of $92,000 in the prior year and $94,000 on a pro forma basis due to the above described items. COMPARISON OF THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995 TO DECEMBER 31, 1994 The Company is primarily engaged in the business of marketing and distributing refined petroleum and related products employing wholesale, convenience store operations and environmental services. The following table sets forth, for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 certain items of the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations. Percentage of Sales 1995 1994 Net Sales 100.0% 100.0% Cost of Sales 75.0% --% Gross Profit 25.0% 100.0% Selling, General & Administrative Expenses 24.4% 127.3% Other Income and (expenses) 0.7% --% Minority Interest 0.6% --% Net Income (loss) from continuing operations (0.7)% (27.3)% The Company's sales for the year ended December 31, 1995, were $9,828,000 compared to $473,000 for the comparable period ending December 31, 1994. The increase in revenue is due to an increase in sales due to acquisition of Meteor of $8,868,000 and an increase of $487,000 at CAS. The increase in revenues at CAS is due to additional lab analysis which trend is expected to continue. 19 The Company's cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 1995, were $7,373,000 compared to $0 for the comparable period ended December 31, 1994. The increase in costs of sales is due to the acquisition of CRI by Meteor. The Company's gross profit for the year ended December 31, 1995, was $2,455,000 compared to $473,000 for the comparable period ended December 31, 1994. The increase is related to the acquisition of CRI by Meteor. The Company's selling, general and administrative expenses were $2,395,000 for the year ended December 31, 1995 compared to $602,000 for the year ended December 31, 1994. The increase in expenses of $1,388,000 is related to the acquisition of CRI by Meteor and an increase at CAS of $405,000 due to increased activity at the laboratory. The Company's other expenses for the year ended December 31, 1995 was $71,000 compared to $0 for the comparable period December 31, 1994. The reasons for the increase is due to the acquisition of CRI by Meteor. The Company's loss from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 1995, was $74,000 compared to a loss from continuing operations of $129,000 in the prior year due to the above described items. COMPARISON OF THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994 COMPARED TO 1993 Since CRI had no revenues from continuing operations in 1993, there are no comparative numbers. CRI's revenues from continuing operations for 1994 were $472,000 and expenses were $602,000. The loss is due to starting laboratory analysis work in 1994. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS CRI had been involved in the production of oil and gas prior to the transaction with the Company. Those operations were discontinued and will have no impact on future operations. CRI had these operations in subsidiaries. On September 15, 1995, CRI sold the shares of Saba de Colombia, Inc., a U.S. subsidiary engaged in the exploration and development of petroleum and natural gas in Colombia, to a third party for consideration of $2,601,719, and realized a gain net of taxes on the sale of the shares of $890,189. The consideration received was in the form of: Cash $2,401,719 400,000 cumulative, convertible, redeemable first preferred shares of Petrosandtander Inc. bearing Dividends at 8.5% 200,000 $2,601,719 Cash of $150,000 and the preferred shares remain in escrow pending review by Colombian taxing authorities. This subsidiary was sold by CRI in order to make another investment. 20 On December 1, 1995, CRI transferred to CAPCO Acquisub, Inc., a wholly- owned subsidiary of CAPCO Resources Ltd., all of its holdings of Saba Petro- leum Company and certain other assets and liabilities. This transaction was recorded at book value. The net assets transferred had a book value of approximately $181,361. These assets were transferred so that the Company would not be involved in oil and gas production. The net income from discontinued operations was $398,789 and the gain on disposition, net of taxes was $890,189 for the year ended December 31, 1995. 21 ITEM 13.

("CRI"), is a holding Company involved in developing a power project in Pakistan, and Capco Analytical Services, Inc. ("CAS") is involved in providing environmental consulting and laboratory analysis in California, both were acquired in November 1995. The acquisition of CRI was accounted for as a reverse acquisition with CRI treated as the acquirer. The historical accounts of CRI are reflected in the financial statements for the previous year. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Meteor Industries, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Graves, (including its wholly owned subsidiary, El Boracho, Inc.) Hillger, CRI and CAS. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted principles for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, such interim statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position and the results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for these interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes for the year ended December 31, 1995. Earnings per common and common equivalent share are computed by dividing the net income by the weighted average number of common shares. The number of shares used in the earnings per share computation for 1996 is 3,024,903 and for 1995 is 1,745,000 (equivalent Meteor shares, actual shares outstanding are 100). F-4 Report of Independent Accountants To the Board of Directors Meteor Industries, Inc.: We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Meteor Industries, Inc., as of December 31, 1995, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatements. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above presently fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Meteor Industries, Inc. as of December 31, 1995, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 1995 NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Meteor Industries, Inc.("Meteor" or "Company") was incorporated on December 22, 1992, as a Colorado based holding company. Graves Oil & Butane Co., Inc. ("Graves"), which was acquired effective September 1, 1993, is a wholesale and retail distributor of petroleum products primarily in northern New Mexico, Color- rado, Arizona and Utah. Graves also operates retail gasoline and convenience stores in northern New Mexico and Colorado. El Boracho, Inc., which was acquired September 1, 1993, holds a liquor license for use by an Albuquerque, New Mexico convenience store. Hillger Oil Company ("Hillger"), which was acquired effective April 1, 1995, is a wholesale and retail distributor of petroleum products primarily in southern New Mexico and Arizona. In addition, Hillger operates retail gasoline and convenience stores in southern New Mexico. Capco Resources, Inc. ("CRI"), is a holding Company involved in providing environmental consulting and laboratory analysis and the development of a power project in Pakistan. The acquisition of CRI was accounted for as a reverse acquisition with CRI treated as the acquirer (See Note 15). The historical accounts of CRI are reflected in the financial statements for the full year. Information for Meteor is included since November 2, 1995, the date of acquisition. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION AND ORGANIZATION - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Meteor Industries, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Graves, including its wholly owned subsidiary, El Boracho, Inc., Hillger and CRI, including its wholly owned subsidiary, Capco Analytical Services, Inc. ("CAS"). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS - Cash and cash equivalents include certificates of deposit or cash in local banks. RESTRICTED CASH - The Company has revolving bank credit facilities which require the use of depository accounts from which collected funds are transferred to the lender. The lender then applies these collections to the revolving credit facilities. These accounts are controlled by the lender. INVENTORIES - Inventories of petroleum products, greases and oils, and related products are stated at weighted average cost, which is not in excess of market. Sundries inventories are valued by the retail method and stated on the first in, first out (FIFO) basis which is lower than market. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT - Property and equipment are stated at cost; major renewals and improvements are charged to the property and equipment accounts; while replacements, maintenance and repairs, which do not improve or extend the lives of the respective assets, are expended currently. At the time property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the asset and related accumulated depreciation accounts are relieved of the applicable amounts. Gains or losses from retirements or sales are credited or charged to income. REVENUE RECOGNITION - Revenue from product sales is recognized when the product is delivered. Revenue from services is recognized when the services are performed and billable. F-12 DEPRECIATION - Depreciation is recorded principally on the straight-line method at rates based on the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated useful lives are as follows: Description Lives Buildings and improvements 5 to 40 years Equipment 5 to 20 years COST IN EXCESS OF NET ASSETS ACQUIRED AND OTHER INTANGIBLES - The Company continually monitors its costs in excess of net assets acquired (goodwill) and its other intangibles to determine whether any impairment of these assets has occurred. In making such determination with respect to goodwill, the Company evaluates the performance using cash flows, on an undiscounted basis, of the underlying businesses which gave rise to such amount. With respect to other intangibles, which include the cost of license agreements, covenants not to compete and organization costs, the Company bases its determination on the performance using cash flows, on an undiscounted basis, of the related products. The Company's goodwill results from the acquisition of Hillger. The assets acquired in these transactions continue to contribute a significant portion of the Company's net revenues and earnings. Substantially all costs in excess of net assets (goodwill) of subsidiaries acquired are being amortized on the straight-line method over fifteen years. Other intangibles, which include the costs of license agreements, covenants not to compete and organization costs are being amortized over five years using the straight-line method. 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 related primarily to differences between the basis of certain assets and liabilities for financial and tax reporting. The deferred taxes represent the future consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. ENVIRONMENTAL EXPENDITURES - Expenditures that relate to current operations are expended or capitalized as appropriate for each expenditure. Whenever an expenditure relates to an existing condition caused by past operations and does not contribute to future revenues, the expenditure is expensed currently. Liabilities are recorded when remedial efforts are probable and the cost can be reasonably estimated. EARNINGS PER SHARE - Earnings per common and common equivalent share are computed by dividing the net income by the weighted average number of common shares. The number of shares used in the earnings per share computation is 489,035, which reflects CRI's equivalent share activity for ten months and Meteor share activity from the date of the reverse acquisition.

NOTE 3 -- NOTES RECEIVABLE - RELATED PARTIES The Company has two outstanding notes receivable from its minority interest shareholder (100% preferred stockholder of Graves) in the amounts of $550,000 and $100,000. The $550,000 note is due October 1, 1997, and is collateralized by real estate. However, if the collateral is sold prior to satisfaction of this note, then one half of the lesser of the outstanding balance or the sale proceeds of the assets will be applied to reduce the liquidation preference of the preferred stock, and the remaining one half will be applied to reduce the note payable to the minority interest shareholder. Interest is receivable semiannually and is determined at each anniversary based on Citibank of New York prime plus 2%. The interest rate at December 31, 1995, was 8.50%. The $100,000 note is unsecured and is due October 1, 1997, with interest accrued from September 28, 1994. Interest is computed semiannually at Citibank of New York prime plus 2%, being 8.50% at December 31, 1995. Accrued interest receivable at December 31, 1995, totaled $36,210. The Company has a note receivable from another controlled subsidiary of Capco Resources Ltd. in the amount of $1,516,000 due April 1, 2006. Interest is receivable semiannually at a rate of 9%. NOTE 4 -- INVESTMENTS IN CLOSELY HELD BUSINESSES The Company owns 50% of the Graves Rio Rancho No. 1 Ltd. Co. The investment was acquired in May 1994. The Company reports their investment in this limited liability company using the equity method. The value is $133,263. This investment is not publicly traded. The Company owns 33 % of American L.P., Ltd. The investment was acquired in December 1995, for $100,014. The Company reports their investment in this limited liability Company using the equity method. This investment is not publicly traded. At December 31, 1995, the Company, through its subsidiary CRI, owned 25.2% of Saba Power Company, Ltd. During 1994, Saba Power and several partners including Cogen Technologies Inc. ("Cogen") received approval to develop, construct and operate a 115 Megawatt power generating plant in the Islamic Republic of Pakistan. At December 31, 1995, CRI's $175,865 investment represents its share of project development costs including legal fees, engineering feasibility costs, environmental fees, performance guarantee and other costs incurred to that date. At construction funding these costs will be treated as equity contributions to the project. The recoverability of the Saba Power investment is dependent upon successful completion of the project and commencement of commercial production. The Company and its partners provided a performance guarantee through a bank in Pakistan, in the original amount of approximately $355,000 (10,900,000 Rupees.) The agreements between the partners and the Government of Pakistan have several conditions, the most significant being: F-14 i) Cogen agreed to fund all project development costs subsequent to September 30, 1994, and will carry on day to day operations of the project, including design, engineering, selecting equipment, obtaining financing and overseeing construction and operations. ii) In order to maintain its 25.2% ownership CRI must reimburse its proportionate share of all project developments costs, paid for by Cogen, including interest at 15% per annum. CRI will be responsible for its proportionate share of all remaining project costs as incurred. In the event that CRI does not make any additional equity contributions then CRI will not be obligated on any performance guarantees or any additional costs, but its ownership will be reduced proportionately. iii) On December 19, 1995, Saba Power entered into an agreement with the Government of Pakistan to increase the Performance Guarantee to $1,456,000 (46 million Rupees) valid up to April 18, 1996, and to move the date of Financial Closing under the Letter of Support to March 17, 1996. Effective April 1, 1996, Saba Power received from the Government of Pakistan acknowledgment of financial closing. Final approvals of certain financing documents are expected to be completed prior to June 30, 1996. iv) On March 31, 1996, CRI executed an amendment to the Project Development and Shareholder Agreement. This Agreement allows CRI to make a $2,314,000 equity investment in the Project (such investment is expected to be made prior to June 30, 1996) in exchange for approximately an 8% interest in the Project. In addition, CRI will have an option to increase its interest in the Project to 23% for a one year period ending March 31, 1997. If CRI decides to exercise such option, it will be required to invest approximately $7,300,000 in additional equity. CRI can take advantage of this option to a lesser degree by making a proportionately smaller equity investment. CRI subsequently entered into an agreement with Saba Petroleum Company whereby Saba intends to participate with CRI in the Project. Saba intends to invest approximately $1,500,000 in the Project this year and will have the option to make an additional investment of approximately $3,650,000 in the first quarter of 1997. Saba's initial interest in the Project will be approximately 5.4% which can be increased to 11.5% pursuant to the option. As a result of this transaction CRI intends to invest $800,000 during 1996 for almost a 3% interest in the project. CRI shall have the option to increase its interest up to approximately 11.5% by investing up to approximately $4,000,000 by the first quarter of 1997. CRI intends to obtain the necessary financing for its share of the initial equity commitment through the sale of its common stock and/or the partial collection of notes receivable. CRI has a commitment outstanding for $75,000 as a finders fee relating to the project of which one half is expected to be reimbursed by one of the partners.

NOTE 11 -- ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION EXPENDITURES The Company utilizes underground tanks at various locations to store petroleum products and is therefore subject to various federal and state statutes concerning environmental protection, as well as the New Mexico Ground Water Protection Act. The various federal and state statutes are designed to identify environmental damage, identify hazardous material and/or operations, regulate operations engaged in hazardous activities, and establish procedures for remedial action as necessary. The state of New Mexico has recognized the potential cleanup costs resulting from regulations, and the New Mexico Ground Water Protection Act has included the establishment of a corrective action fund. The purpose of the fund is to provide monetary assistance in both assessing site damage and correcting the damage where such costs are in excess of $10,000. Assistance is not available to repair or replace underground tanks or equipment. The law specifies requirements which must have been met for an applicant to be eligible, including a provision that payments will be made in accordance with regulations (which have not yet been issued), and states that payment from the corrective action fund are limited to amounts in that fund. The Company is responsible for any contamination of land it owns or leases. However, the Company may have limitations on any potential contamination liabilities as well as claims for reimbursement from third parties.

NOTE 17 -- DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS a) On September 15, 1995, CRI sold the shares of Saba de Colombia, Inc., a U.S. subsidiary engaged in the exploration and development of petroleum and natural gas in Colombia, to a third party for consideration of $2,601,719, and realized a gain net of taxes on the sale of the shares of $890,189. The gain as previously reported of $1,108,939 has been restated to $890,189 to eliminate certain proceeds held in escrow. The consideration received was in the form of: Cash $2,401,719 400,000 cumulative, convertible, redeemable first preferred shares of Petrosandtander Inc. bearing dividends at 8.5% 200,000 F-21 $2,601,719 Cash of $150,000 and the preferred shares remain in escrow pending review by Colombian taxing authorities. b) On December 1, 1995, CRI transferred to CAPCO Acquisub, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of CAPCO Resources Ltd., all of its holdings of Saba Petroleum Company and certain other assets and liabilities. This transaction was recorded at book value. The net assets transferred had a book value of approximately $181,361 The discontinued operations results for 1995 are as follows: Year Ended December 31, 1995 Income Oil and gas sales (net of royalties) $14,197,860 Other income 843,793 15,041,653 Expenses Production and operating 9,010,631 General and administrative 1,986,967 Interest and bank charges 1,065,011 Depreciation, depletion and amortization 2,413,743 14,476,352 Operating income 565,301 Income tax expense 180,130 Foreign exchange (gain) loss 51,237 Minority interest 114,655 Dilution gain (179,510) 166,512 Net Income $ 398,789 Gain on disposition, net of tax of $681,475 $ 890,189 NOTE 18 -- NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of" ("SFAS No. 121"). The standard requires the recognition of an impairment loss on certain identifiable intangible assets and long-lived assets in use or held for disposal when events or circumstances indicate the carrying value of these assets may not be recoverable or exceeds their fair value. At this time, the Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 121 to have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS No. 123"). The standard encourages, but does not require, companies to recognize compensation expense for grants of stock, stock options and other equity instruments to employees based on fair value F-22 accounting rules. The standard requires companies that choose not to adopt the new fair value accounting rules to disclose pro forma net income and earnings per share under the new method. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995. The Company will adopt only the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123 in 1996. F-23 SQUIRE & WOODWARD, P.C.

F-30 METEOR INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements As of August 31, 1995 and 1994 NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES This summary of significant accounting policies of Meteor Industries, Inc. (the company) and Subsidiaries is presented to assist in the understanding of the company's financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the company's management, who are responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements. PRINCIPALS OF CONSOLIDATION AND ORGANIZATION - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Meteor Industries, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Graves Oil & Butane Co., Inc., including its wholly owned subsidiary, El Boracho, Inc., and Hillger Oil Company. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Meteor Industries, Inc., was incorporated on December 22, 1992, as a Colorado based holding company. Graves Oil & Butane Co., Inc., which was acquired effective September 1, 1993, is a wholesale and retail distributor of petroleum products primarily in northern New Mexico, Colorado, Arizona, and Utah. The company also operates retail gasoline and convenience stores in northern New Mexico and Colorado. El Boracho, Inc., which was acquired September 1, 1993, holds a liquor license for use by an Albuquerque, New Mexico convenience store. Hillger Oil Company, which was acquired effective April 1, 1995, is a wholesale and retail distributor of petroleum products primarily in southern New Mexico and Arizona. In addition, the company operates retail gasoline and convenience stores in southern New Mexico. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE - Accounts receivable are stated at net realizable value, using the allowance method of accounting for bad debts. INVENTORIES - Inventories of petroleum products, greases and oils, and related products for Hillger Oil Company are stated at weighted average cost, which is not in excess of market. Inventories of petroleum products, greases and oils, and related products for Graves Oil & Butane Co., Inc., are valued at Last In, First Out (LIFO) cost, which is not in excess of market. Graves Oil & Butane Co., Inc., determines its LIFO reserve using the link chain dollar value method. At August 31, 1995 and 1994, inventories valued using the LIFO method were $789,788 and $868,068, respectively. The LIFO reserves were $315,163 and $307,473, respectively. Sundries inventories are valued by the retail method and stated on the First In, First Out (FIFO) basis which is lower than market. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT - Property and equipment are stated at cost; major renewals and improvements are charged to the property and equipment accounts; while replacements, maintenance and repairs, which do not improve or extend the lives of the respective assets, are expended currently. At the time property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the asset and related accumulated depreciation accounts are relieved of the applicable amounts. Gains or losses from retirements or sales are credited or charged to income. DEPRECIATION - Depreciation is recorded principally on the straight-line method at rates based on the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated useful lives are as follows: F-31 Description Lives Buildings and improvements 5 to 40 years Office equipment 5 to 7 years Operating equipment 5 to 16 years General and administrative 5 to 20 years Marketing equipment 5 to 10 years Delivery equipment 5 to 10 years AMORTIZATION OF COVENANTS - Covenants not to compete are valued at cost and are amortized over a 60-month period. Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of Hillger Oil Company over the fair value of its net assets at the effective date of acquisition and is being amortized using the straight line method over 15 years. 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 related primarily to differences between the basis of certain assets and liabilities for financial and tax reporting. The deferred taxes represent the future consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Deferred taxes are also recognized for operating losses that are available to offset future income taxes. ENVIRONMENTAL EXPENDITURES - Expenditures that relate to current operations are expended or capitalized as appropriate for each expenditure. Whenever an expenditure relates to an existing condition caused by past operations and does not contribute to future revenues, the expenditure is expensed currently. Liabilities are recorded when remedial efforts are probable and the cost can be reasonably estimated. EARNINGS PER SHARE - Earnings per common and common equivalent share are computed by dividing the net income by the weighted average number of common shares, and if dilutive, common stock equivalent shares (options and warrants) outstanding during the respective period. Fully diluted earnings per share is not materially different than primary earnings per share and has not been presented. The number of shares used in the earnings per share computation is 1,056,191 for 1995 and 691,300 for 1994. COMPENSATED ABSENCES - Employees of the company are entitled to paid vacation and paid sick days off, depending on length of service and other factors. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS - Cash and cash equivalents include certificates of deposit or cash in local banks. See Note 2. RECLASSIFICATIONS - Certain 1994 amounts have been reclassified to conform with the 1995 presentation. USE OF ESTIMATES - The process of preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the use of estimates and assumptions regarding certain types of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Such estimates primarily relate to unsettled transactions and events as of the date of the financial statements. Accordingly, upon settlement, actual results may differ from estimated amounts. F-32 NOTE 2 -- CASH - RESTRICTED The company has revolving bank credit facilities (See Note 7) which require the use of depository accounts called collateral accounts from which collected funds are transferred to the lender. The lender then applies these collections to the revolving credit facilities. These accounts are controlled by the lender.

NOTE 15 -- ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION EXPENDITURES The company utilizes underground tanks at various locations to store petroleum products and is therefore subject to the various federal and state statutes concerning environmental protection, as well as the New Mexico Ground Water F-39 Protection Act. The various federal and state statutes are designed to identify environmental damage, identify hazardous material and/or operations, regulate operations engaged in hazardous activities, and establish procedures for remedial action as necessary. The state of New Mexico has recognized the potential cleanup costs resulting from such regulations, and the New Mexico Ground Water Protection Act has included the establishment of a corrective action fund. The purpose of the fund is to provide monetary assistance in both assessing site damage and correcting the damage where such costs are in excess of $10,000. Assistance is not available to repair or replace underground tanks or equipment. The law specifies requirements which must have been met for an applicant to be eligible, including a provision that payments will be made in accordance with regulations (which have not yet been issued), and states that payment from the corrective action fund are limited to amounts in that fund. The company is responsible for any contamination of land it owns or leases. However, the company may have limitations on any potential contamination liabilities as well as claims for reimbursement from third parties. During the years ended August 31, 1995 and 1994, the company expended $47,013 and $69,702, respectively, for site assessment and related cleanup costs.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 1994 (In U.S. dollars) 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Canada. Underlying these principles is the assumption that the Company will be able to realize its assets and pay its liabilities in the normal course of business (refer to Note 2). The more significant of the Company's accounting policies are: a) PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary, CAPCO Analytical Services Inc. Oil and gas and other miscellaneous operations were treated as discontinued operations as a definitive merger agreement which contemplated the sale of these assets was signed January 20, 1995 (see Note 3). b) ANALYTICAL EQUIPMENT Analytical equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation of equipment is provided principally on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the equipment, ranging from three to seven years. c) INVESTMENT IN SABA POWER COMPANY LIMITED The investment in Saba Power Company Limited is recorded using the equity method. All operations to date have been pre-operational project development costs and such costs have been capitalized. d) EARNINGS PER SHARE Earnings per share is calculated using the weighted monthly average number of shares outstanding. 2. CORPORATE ITEMS a) FINANCIAL ITEMS At December 31, 1994, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $277,003. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern and to realize its assets and to discharge its liabilities (see Notes 3 and 5) is dependent upon the Company obtaining profitable operations or receiving financial support from its controlling shareholder. b) CONTROL At December 31, 1994, the Company was indirectly controlled by an individual who indirectly held 85.29% of the issued common shares of the parent company, CAPCO Resources Ltd. (see Note 10(b)). F-55 c) CAPCO ANALYTICAL SERVICES INC. In April 1994, the Company formed CAPCO Analytical Services, Inc. ("CAS"). CAS acquired $275,000 in assets to be used in laboratory analyses. CAS assumed liabilities related to the assets of $230,000 and agreed to pay the remaining $45,000 by providing discount laboratory analysis to the seller. d) ACCOUNTING PRESENTATION The Company was incorporated in October 1993 and commenced operations when the U.S. assets of its parent company were transferred to it for corporate planning purposes. The historical comparative financial information has been presented as if the Company owned the assets from the time acquired by the parent company as the purchase transaction occurred between companies under common control. Subsequent to December 31, 1994, the majority of the assets transferred by its parent company to the Company were transferred to a related party or sold, and accounted for as discontinued operations. 3. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS a) On September 15, 1995, the Company sold the shares of Saba de Colombia, Inc., a U.S. subsidiary engaged in the exploration and development of petroleum and natural gas in Colombia, to a third party for fair market value of $2,601,719, and realized a gain net of taxes on the sale of the shares of $1,426,395. The consideration received was in the form of: Cash $2,401,719 400,000 cumulative, convertible, redeemable first preferred shares of Petrosandtander Inc. bearing dividends at 8.5% per annum 200,000 $2,601,719 $150,000 and the preferred shares remain in escrow pending review by Colombian taxing authorities. b) On December 1, 1995, the Company transferred to CAPCO Acquisub Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of CAPCO Resources Ltd., all of its holdings of Saba Petroleum Company certain other assets and liabilities. This transaction was recorded at book value. The net assets transferred had a book value of approximately $1,220,000. The discontinued operations results for 1994, 1993, and 1992 are as follows: Year ended December 31 1994 1993 1992 Income Oil and gas sales (net of royalties) $16,561,431 $14,888,250 $10,736,986 Other income 996,658 729,234 516,759 17,558,089 15,617,484 11,253,745 Expenses Production and operating 10,807,058 8,392,673 6,070,781 General and administrative 2,530,929 2,998,152 1,775,247 Interest and bank charges 1,252,507 810,168 498,607 Depreciation, depletion and amortization 2,744,054 2,555,213 1,551,673 17,334,548 14,756,206 9,896,308 F-56 Income before the following 223,541 861,278 1,357,437 Income tax expense 540,043 486,947 675,471 Foreign exchange (gain) loss (373,787) (114,313) (224,115) Minority interest 249,665 (36,676) 140,861 Dilution gain (370,907) (165,304) - 45,014 170,654 592,217 Income for the year $ 178,527 $ 690,624 $ 765,220 The following summarizes the carrying value of major assets and liabilities of the discontinued operations transferred which has been reflected in the consolidated balance sheet as net assets from discontinued operation. The assets and liabilities were held primarily through investments in shares in other companies and were not directly owned: Year ended December 31 1994 1993 1992 Net working capital $(4,026,062) $(2,583,420) $(2,527,348) Capital assets 16,798,922 13,060,590 13,169,002 Other assets 652,415 680,222 378,768 Minority interest (3,080,083) (1,834,087) (1,548,533) Long-term debt (5,385,221) (4,875,000) (3,612,649) Deferred tax and other (664,617) (306,786) (37,000) Pension liability (1,844,360) (1,554,154) (1,765,644) Deferred foreign exchange gain (420,379) (450,270) - Due to affiliated companies (1,458,579) (1,476,872) (4,084,913) $ 572,036 $ 660,023 $ (28,317) 4.

INVESTMENT IN SABA POWER COMPANY LIMITED ("SABA POWER") During 1994, Saba Power and several partners received approval to develop, construct and operate a 109 Megawatt power generating plant in the Islamic Republic of Pakistan. The Company holds an indirect equity investment in Saba Power of 25.2%. At December 31, 1994, the Company's investment represents its share of project development costs incurred to that date. The recoverability of the investment is dependent upon successful completion of the project and commencement of commercial production. The Company and its partners provided a performance guarantee through a bank in Pakistan, in the amount of approximately $355,000 at December 31, 1994 (10,900,000 Rupees). The agreements between the partners and the Government of Pakistan have several conditions, the most significant being: F-57 i) To maintain its 25.2% interest in the project, the Company must fund an initial equity investment of $6.75 million which includes earning a development fee from the project of $2.7 million, which must be reinvested as part of the Company's equity commitment. In a letter dated December 29, 1995, the Company agreed with the majority equity holder, Cogen Technologies Inc. ("Cogen"), that the Company would borrow all additional equity from Cogen, which is necessary to fund the amount in excess of $6.75 million, including interest at 15% per annum to be paid out of the cashflow of the project if not paid sooner by the Company. The Company also confirms that, at the financial closing (currently March 17, 1996) of the project, it will deposit 50% of the $4.05 million required, after receiving the development fee, and the amount borrowed from Cogen. The remaining 50% will be deposited with Cogen on the first anniversary of the financial closing. Should the Company not meet its required equity commitment, the majority equity partner will fund the difference and reduce the Company's interest proportionately. ii) Cogen agreed to fund all project development costs subsequent to September 30, 1994 and will carry on day to day operations of the project, including design, engineering, selecting equipment, obtaining financing and overseeing construction and operations. iii) The Company must reimburse its proportionate share of all project development costs, paid for by Cogen, including interest at 15% per annum. The Company will be responsible for its proportionate share of all remaining project costs as incurred. iv) On September 17, 1995 Saba Power entered into an agreement with the Government of Pakistan to increase the Performance Guarantee to $728,000 (23 million Rupees) valid up to January 18, 1996 and to move the date of Financial Close under the Letter of Support to December 17, 1995. The Company has not yet determined how it will obtain the necessary financing for its share of the initial equity commitment but is investigating options available to it. The Company has a commitment outstanding for $75,000 as a finders fee relating to the project and $60,750 as a letter of credit fee. 6. INCOME TAXES The provision for income taxes in the Statement of Operations varies from the amount that would be computed by applying the expected income tax rate of 37.5% (1993 and 1992 - 37.5%) to income from continuing operations. The principal reasons for the difference between such "expected" income tax expense and the amount actually recorded are as follows: Year ended December 31 1994 1993 1992 Computed "expected" income tax recovery $(48,575) $(856) $ - Tax losses carried forward applied 48,575 856 - $ - $ - $ - 7. SEGMENTED INFORMATION During 1994 and 1993 the Company operated predominately in one industry segment - Laboratory Analysis in the United States and invested in a Power Project in Pakistan (see Note 5).

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES The Company is subject to extensive Federal, State and local environmental laws and regulations. These laws, which are constantly changing, include regulations of the discharge of materials into the environment. The Company believes that it is in compliance with existing laws and regulations. LEASES The Company is committed under non-cancellable leases for office space, which expire in 1998. Future minimum payments are as follows: 1995 $80,400 1996 80,400 1997 80,400 1998 33,500 9. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Related party transactions are described as follows: The Company has in the past, advanced and received funds with related parties. All of these transactions have been included in discontinued operations (see Note 3), including the amount from net assets from discontinued operations. 10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS a) On April 22, 1995, the Company signed a Project Development and Shareholders' Agreement relating to the power generating plant in Pakistan which converted the indirect equity holding into direct investment in Saba Power. b) On January 20, 1995, the Company's parent entered into a definitive merger agreement with Meteor Industries, Inc. (Meteor), a United States public company engaged in the wholesale and retail marketing of petroleum products with operations in Colorado and New Mexico. The Company's parent was to exchange shares of the parent for all the shares of Meteor. Although the F-59 number of shares was to be determined, the Company's parent would issue a maximum of 2,091,250 shares. This agreement was cancelled and a new agreement between the Company, its parent, and Meteor was entered into and closed on December 1, 1995. The new agreement merged the Company with Meteor in a reverse takeover whereby all of the shares of the Company were exchanged for 1,745,000 shares of Meteor, representing 57.8% of the total outstanding shares of Meteor after the transaction. In connection with this agreement, the Company transferred its interest in Saba Petroleum Company and certain other assets and liabilities to another wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company's parent. This resulted in the discontinuation of operations in oil and gas production and in other assets, liabilities and revenues and expenses which are allocated to discontinued operation (see Note 3). The acquisition will be accounted for as a purchase of Meteor by the Company with income being recorded from the date of acquisition. The estimated purchase price allocation based upon the August 31, 1995 financial statements of Meteor is as follows: Current assets $ 6,682,503 Capital assets 7,677,652 Other assets 2,131,081 Current liabilities (6,950,574) Long-term liabilities (2,095,660) Deferred taxes (1,682,051) Minority interest (3,488,310) $ 2,274,641 c) On September 15, 1995, the Company sold its interest in Saba de Colombia, Inc. The proceeds of the sale were used to advance monies to Saba Petroleum Company and to pay some liabilities. The operations of Saba de Colombia, Inc. and the gain on sale are included in discontinued operations (see Note 3). d) Restructuring of the Saba Power commitment as disclosed in Note 5. 11.

The financial statements and notes are representations of the company's management, who are responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements. BUSINESS ACTIVITY - The company was incorporated February 20, 1950, under the laws of the state of New Mexico. The company is a retail and wholesale distributor of petroleum products and also sells various products at retail in its convenience stores. The company grants credit to customers, substantially all of whom are local businesses or individuals. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE - Accounts receivable are stated at net realizable value, using the allowance method of accounting for bad debts. INVESTMENTS - Investments consist of marketable securities classified as available-for-sale and are valued at cost which approximates market value. INVENTORIES - Inventories of petroleum products, greases and oils, and related products are valued at average cost which is not in excess of market. Sundries inventories are valued by the retail method and stated on the First-In, First-Out (FIFO) basis which is lower than market. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT - Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense in the year incurred. Renewals and material betterments are capitalized. Gains and losses on disposition are credited or charged to income during the year of disposition. See Note 3. DEPRECIATION - Depreciation is recorded principally on the straight-line method at rates based on the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated useful lives are as follows: Description Lives Buildings and leasehold improvements 5 to 40 years Equipment 5 to 20 years Vehicles 5 to 10 years 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 related primarily to differences between the basis of certain assets and liabilities for financial and tax reporting. The deferred taxes represent the future consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Deferred taxes also are recognized for operating losses and contribution carryforwards that are available to offset future taxable income. See Note 7. F-68 ENVIRONMENTAL EXPENDITURES - Expenditures that relate to current operations are expensed or capitalized as appropriate for each expenditure. Whenever an expenditure relates to an existing condition caused by past operations and does not contribute to future revenues, the expenditure is expensed currently. Liabilities are recorded when remedial efforts are probable and the cost can be reasonably estimated. COMPENSATED ABSENCES - Employees of the company are entitled to paid vacation and paid sick days off, depending on length of service and other factors. ADVERTISING COSTS - Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. See Note 9. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS - For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. NOTE 2 - INVESTMENTS At March 31, 1995 and 1994, investments were classified as available-for-sale and consisted of the following: 1995 1994 Equity securities: Tri-state Grocery stock $ $ 699 Debt securities: Mutual funds investing in U.S. government securities 254 93,014 Municipal security - 5.875%, June 1, 2023 106,583 Total investments $ 254 $200,296 Cost approximates fair value of investments. Unrealized holding gains and losses are considered by management to be immaterial. For the years ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, sales of investments occurred as follows: 1995 1994 Proceeds from sales $ 405,533 $ Cost basis (433,788) 0 Net loss on sale of investments $ (28,255) $ 0 Gross realized gains or losses were as follows: Gross realized gains $ 1,792 $ Gross realized losses (30,047) 0 Net loss on sale of investments $ (28,255) $ 0 The basis on which cost was determined in computing realized gain or loss was the specific identification method. F-69 NOTE 3 - PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT The major classifications of property and equipment are as follows: 1995 1994 Building and leasehold improvements $ 63,133 $ 747,627 Equipment 1,152,151 1,179,970 Vehicles 534,757 550,285 1,750,041 2,477,882 Accumulated depreciation (1,291,356) (1,236,293) Net property and equipment $ 458,685 $1,241,589 For the years ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, the company deducted depreciation of $196,361 and $222,869, respectively. NOTE 4 - NOTE RECEIVABLE At March 31, 1995 and 1994, note receivable consisted of the following: 1995 1994 Note receivable, $2,400 per month, including interest at 11.5%, unsecured. $18,014 $43,149 NOTE 5 - NOTES RECEIVABLE - RELATED PARTIES At March 31, 1995 and 1994, notes receivable from related parties consisted of the following: 1995 1994 Note receivable - stockholder, due on demand with 10% interest, unsecured $ $27,929 Note receivable - employee, due upon receipt of employee benefit plan funds (closed March 31, 1995), with interest at 10%, unsecured 9,000 Total notes receivable - related parties $9,000 $27,929 NOTE 6 - NOTE PAYABLE At March 31, 1995, note payable consisted of an insurance note, payable in quarterly installments of $29,900 with no interest due. NOTE 7 - INCOME TAXES At March 31, 1995 and 1994, the net deferred income taxes in the accompanying balance sheets included the following components: 1995 1994 Current: Deferred tax asset - federal $(71,935) $(12,579) Deferred tax asset - state (8,854) (1,776) Net current deferred tax asset $(80,789) $(14,355) F-70 Noncurrent: Deferred tax asset - federal $ (748) $ Deferred tax asset - state (92) Deferred tax liability - federal 61,924 44,188 Deferred tax liability - state 7,621 6,238 Net noncurrent deferred tax liability $ 68,705 $ 50,426 At March 31, 1995, 1994, and 1993, the provision for income taxes consisted of the following components: 1995 1994 1993 Current income tax (benefit) $(40,635) $24,133 $15,994 Deferred income tax (benefit) (14,240) 52,705 2,196 Benefit of operating loss carryforward (33,915) Total provision for income tax $(88,790) $76,838 $18,190 The deferred tax liabilities result from the use of accelerated methods of depreciation of property and equipment. The deferred tax assets result from an allowance for bad debts that is not deductible for tax purposes until losses are identified and written off and from operating loss and contribution carryforwards that are available to offset future taxable income. The tax provisions differ from amounts that would be calculated by applying the statutory rates to income before income taxes because no tax assets have been recognized for nontaxable income totaling approximately $10,000 for 1995, and no tax liabilities have been recognized for nondeductible operating expenses totaling $16,000 for 1995 and 1994, and $24,000 for 1993, the company is subject to state income taxes, and the tax provisions consider the effect of graduated rates. As of March 31, 1995, the company has an operating loss carryforward of $77,430 and a contribution carryforward of $9,153 available to offset future taxable income. The operating loss carryforward expires March 31, 2015, and the contribution carryforward expires March 31, 2000.

NOTE 10 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Hillger Oil Company leases from the stockholders, either directly or indirectly through an affiliated company, various real property and equipment. Amounts included in rent expense and paid to the related parties for the year ended March 31, 1995, were $640,522 and approximately $529,000 for each of the years ended March 31, 1994 and 1993. See Note 16 for additional information on the operating leases. Pursuant to an agreement dated August 1, 1962, the company reacquired 201 shares of stock in exchange for forgiveness of debt of $10,647 and $200 per month so long as the stockholders or the survivor of them shall live. The stock was subsequently reissued. On November 15, 1993, the Board of Directors approved an increase in the monthly payment to $600. Pursuant to the sale of the company, as discussed in Note 17, the agreement was terminated as of March 31, 1995. For the years ended March 31, 1995, 1994, and 1993 payments made under the agreement were charged to retained earnings in the amount of $8,093, $1,494, and $1,409, respectively.

NOTE 11 - CREDIT RISK The company grants credit, generally without collateral, to its customers which are located primarily in New Mexico. Management believes that its contract acceptance, billing, and collection policies are adequate to minimize potential credit risk. NOTE 12 - CONTINGENCIES The company utilizes underground tanks at various locations to store petroleum products and is therefore subject to the various federal and state statutes concerning environmental protection, as well as the New Mexico Ground Water Protection Act. The various federal and state statutes are designed to identify environmental damage, identify hazardous material and/or operations, regulate operations engaged in hazardous activities, and establish procedures for remedial action as necessary. Environmental regulation is a relatively new area and its extent as well as its application will ultimately be defined by case law. The state of New Mexico has recognized the potential cleanup costs resulting from such regulations, and the New Mexico Ground Water Protection Act has included the establishment of a corrective action fund. The purpose of the fund is to provide monetary assistance in both assessing site damage and correcting the damage where such costs are in excess of $10,000 per site. Assistance is not available to repair or replace underground tanks or equipment. The law specifies requirements which must have been met for an applicant to be eligible, including a provision that payments will be made in accordance with regulations (which have not been issued), and states that payments from the corrective action fund are limited to amounts in that fund. The company will be responsible for any contamination of land it owns or leases. However, the company may have limitations on any potential contamination liabilities as well as claims for reimbursement from third parties. During the years ended March 31, 1995, 1994, and 1993, the company expended $26,373, $30,596, and $21,504, respectively for pollution repairs. NOTE 13 - DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLAN The company adopted a 401(k) profit sharing plan effective April 1, 1994. In order to be eligible to participate in the plan, the employee must be credited with a year of service, and must have attained the age of 21. No employees are excluded from the plan. Contributions to the plan are voluntary through a salary reduction agreement up to a maximum of 15% of compensation. Matching contributions and other additional contributions may be made by the employer at the employer's discretion. As of March 31, 1995, $34,018 in matching contributions had been made by the company. NOTE 14 - DEFINED BENEFIT PLAN The company had adopted a defined benefit pension plan. Participation in the plan required an employee to complete one year of service and be at least 21 years old. Participants were vested in their accounts over a period of six years. The employer had a fixed obligation to contribute each plan year to F-73 the trust fund the amount the plan's actuary determined was necessary to fund retirement benefits under the plan. Plan assets consist primarily of investments in corporate debt and equity securities. The plan was terminated effective March 31, 1995. The plan assets had not yet been settled. Pension expense for March 31, 1995, 1994, and 1993, includes the following components: 1995 1994 1993 Service cost of the current period $ 75,823 $ 42,837 $ 59,418 Interest cost on the projected benefit obligation 7,916 3,725 2,676 Actual return on assets held in the plan (10,732) (8,890) (24,757) Net amortization of prior service cost, transition liability, and net gain 403 1,030 1,400 Pension expense $ 73,410 $ 38,702 $ 38,737 The following sets forth the funded status of the plan and the amounts shown in the accompanying balance sheet at March 31, 1995 and 1994: Actuarial present value of benefit obligations: 1995 1994 Vested benefits $ 163,145 $ 159,309 Nonvested benefits Accumulated benefit obligation 163,145 159,309 Effect of anticipated future compensation levels and other events 1,049 4,603 Projected benefit obligation 164,194 163,912 Fair value of assets held in the plan 164,194 133,912 Unfunded excess of projected benefit obligation over plan assets $ 0 $ 30,000 The weighted average discount rate used to measure the projected benefit obligation is 6%, the rate of increase in future compensation levels is 2%, and the expected long-term rate of return on assets is 6%. The company uses the straight-line method of amortization for prior service cost and unrecognized gains and losses. NOTE 15 - OPERATING LEASES At March 31, 1995, the company leased various properties under month-to-month operating leases. In addition, the company leased two trucks under month-to-month operating leases. The terms of the various leases require the company to pay for all taxes, maintenance, insurance, and other operating expenses. Aggregate rental expense totaled $689,474, $659,004, and $569,909 for the years ended March 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The operating leases for the various properties were renegotiated upon the sale of Hillger Oil Company to Meteor Industries, Inc. (See Note 17). The new F-74 lease commences on the closing date of the sale of the company for a term of 10 years with an option for three additional 5-year terms. The company is required to pay for all taxes, maintenance, insurance, and other operating expenses. The lease payments will start at $38,790 per month for the first year, with an increase of 2.5% per year for each term under this lease.

NOTE 16 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS On April 7, 1995, Meteor Industries, Inc., purchased 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of Hillger Oil Company for cash and notes. At closing, Hillger Oil Company obtained a new revolving line-of-credit for $1,500,000, which is limited to approximately $500,000 until the borrowing base of Hillger Oil Company as defined in the credit agreement increases or decreases. The interest rate is the Norwest base rate plus 2%. The line is secured by the trade accounts receivable and inventory of Hillger Oil Company. The company also obtained a term note of $375,000. The interest rate is the Norwest base rate plus 3%. The term note is secured by property and equipment of Hillger Oil Company. A total of $875,000 was borrowed at closing to pay off existing debt and consummate the transaction as described above. The notes are due June 30, 1998. F-75 SQUIRE & WOODWARD, P.C.

AND SUBSIDIARY Notes to Financial Statements As of August 31, 1993 NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES This summary of significant accounting policies of Graves Oil & Butane Co., Inc. and Subsidiary is presented to assist in the understanding of the company's financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the company's management, who are responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements. BUSINESS ACTIVITY -- The company was incorporated in September, 1958 in New Mexico and is also authorized to do business in Arizona, Colorado and Utah. The company sells petroleum products at the wholesale and retail level throughout the four state area. In 1991, the company acquired all the stock of El Boracho, Inc. This subsidiary has no activity other than holding a liquor license for the Albuquerque convenience store. PRINCIPALS OF CONSOLIDATION -- The consolidated financial statements of Graves Oil & Butane Co., Inc. and its consolidated subsidiary, El Boracho, Inc. include all the accounts of El Boracho, Inc. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS -- Cash and cash equivalents include certificates of deposit or cash in local banks. The cash is unrestricted and can be withdrawn at any time. INVENTORIES -- Inventories of petroleum products, greases and oils, and related products are valued at Last In, First Out (LIFO) cost, which is not in excess of market. The company determines its LIFO reserve using the link chain dollar value method. Sundries inventories are valued by the retail method and stated on the First In, First Out (FIFO) basis which is lower than market. FIXED ASSETS -- Fixed assets are stated at cost; major renewals and improvements are charged to the fixed assets accounts, while replacements, maintenance and repairs, which do not improve or extend the lives of the respective assets, are expended currently. At the time fixed assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the asset and related accumulated depreciation accounts are relieved of the applicable amounts. Gains or losses from retirements or sales are credited or charged to income. DEPRECIATION -- Depreciation is recorded principally on the straight line method at rates based on the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated useful lives are as follows: Description Lives Buildings and improvements 5 to 40 years Office equipment 5 to 7 years Operating equipment 3 to 16 years General and administrative 5 to 20 years Marketing equipment 5 to 10 years Delivery equipment 5 to 10 years F-83 AMORTIZATION OF COVENANTS -- Covenants not to compete are valued at cost and are amortized over a 60 month period. 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 related primarily to differences between the basis of certain assets and liabilities for financial and tax reporting. The deferred taxes represent the future consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Deferred taxes are also recognized for operating losses that are available to offset future income taxes. ENVIRONMENTAL EXPENDITURES -- Expenditures that relate to current operation are expended or capitalized as appropriate for each expenditure. Whenever an expenditure relates to an existing condition caused by past operations and does not contribute to future revenues, the expenditure is expended currently. Liabilities are recorded when remedial efforts are probable and the cost can be reasonably estimated. NOTE 2 -- MARKETABLE SECURITIES The company invests in various publicly traded companies.

NOTE 15 -- ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION EXPENDITURES The company utilizes underground tanks at various locations to store petroleum products and is therefore subject to the various federal and state statutes concerning environmental protection, as well as the New Mexico Ground Water Protection Act. The various federal and state statutes are designed to identify environmental damage, identify hazardous material and/or operations, regulate operations engaged in hazardous activities, and establish procedures for remedial action as necessary. Environmental regulation is a relatively new area and its extent as well as its application will ultimately be defined by case law. The State of New Mexico has recognized the potential cleanup costs resulting from such regulations, and the New Mexico Ground Water Protection Act has included the establishment of a corrective action fund. The purpose of the fund is to provide monetary assistance in both assessing site damage and correcting the damage where such costs are in excess of $10,000. Assistance is not available to repair or replace underground tanks or equipment. The law specifies requirements which must have been met for an applicant to be eligible, includes a provision that payments will be made in accordance with regulations (which have not yet been issued), and states that payment from the corrective action fund are limited to amounts in that fund. The company will be responsible for any contamination of land it owns or leases. However, the company may have limitations on any potential contamination liabilities as well as claims for reimbursement from third parties. During the period ended August 31, 1993, the company expended $4,467 for site assessment and related cleanup costs, all of which was capitalized.
