ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS

     On June 7, 1995, the shareholders of Devon Energy
Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Devon Delaware"), approved
a Plan and Agreement of Merger and Reorganization (the
"Reincorporation") having the effect of changing Devon Delaware's
state of incorporation from Delaware to Oklahoma.  The
Reincorporation was accomplished by merging Devon Delaware into
its newly-formed Oklahoma subsidiary, Devon Oklahoma Corporation
("Devon Oklahoma").  Devon Oklahoma was then renamed Devon Energy
Corporation (the "Company") and continued conducting business as
the successor to Devon Delaware.  

     The Board of Directors believes that the best interests of
the Company's shareholders were served by changing the state of
incorporation to Oklahoma.  The major factor in determining to
reincorporate in Oklahoma was the elimination of $150,000 in
Delaware franchise tax.  Devon Delaware already paid franchise
taxes in Oklahoma because of the business it conducted in the
state.  No additional franchise or other taxes are due to the
State of Oklahoma as a result of the Reincorporation.  Since the
Oklahoma corporation laws are similar to Delaware's, the
Reincorporation did not represent a material change to the laws
governing the Company's shareholders.  

     The Reincorporation did not result in any change in the
number of shares issued or outstanding, in the trading of the
shares on the American Stock Exchange or in the Company's Board
of Directors.  In addition, the Company's bylaws, preferred stock
designations and stock option plans are the same as its
predecessor's.  

     The Company's certificate of incorporation and share rights
plan have changed somewhat.  The certificate of incorporation was
changed to correct provisions which were in conflict with
portions of the Oklahoma law (which are the same as the Delaware
law) changed after the Company was originally incorporated. The
changes to the share rights plan were made primarily to modernize
the structure and to avoid unintended results arising from
unclear language or from circumstances not foreseen when the plan
was adopted.  Also, the plan was simplified and the term of the
plan was extended from the original expiration date of June 29,
1998 to April 16, 2005, ten years from the date of the formation
of the new corporation.

     A detailed discussion of the Reincorporation was included in
the proxy statement covering the June 7, 1995 annual meeting of
shareholders.
