  On  September  7,  1995,  Hugoton  Energy  Corporation,   a  Kansas  corporation
  ("Hugoton"),  acquired control of Consolidated Oil & Gas, Inc. ("COG") through a
  merger  of COG with and into  Hugoton.  Pursuant  to the  Agreement  and Plan of
  Merger dated May 26, 1995, as amended, entered into between Hugoton and COG (the
  "Agreement"),  each outstanding  share of COG stock was converted into the right
  to receive  0.7916 shares of Hugoton  common  stock,  plus $3.0273 in cash. As a
  result of the merger,  on September  7, 1995 the  Company,  which had obtained a
  minority  interest  in  COG  in  September,   1994  as  part  of  the  Company's
  discontinuance  of its oil  and gas  operations,  received  approximately  $13.9
  million  in cash and  3,626,320  shares  (18.4% of the  shares  outstanding)  of
  Hugoton  common stock,  which shares are listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market.  The
  Hugoton stock now held by the Company, which had a closing price of $9.125 share
  as reported on NASDAQ as of September 7, 1995, is subject to a required  holding
  period and certain  restrictions  relating to the sale or other  disposition  of
  such shares.  See Schedule 13D dated  September 7, 1995 and filed by the Company
  on September  21, 1995,  for  additional  information  regarding  the  Company's
  interest in Hugoton.

  Company's  Annual  Report of Form 10-K for the Fiscal year ended  September  30,
