REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors Natural Gas Systems, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Natural Gas Systems, Inc. as of December 31, 2003, and the related statement of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the period from September 23, 2003 (the inception date) to December 31, 2003.

We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NATURAL GAS SYSTEMS, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(THE PERIOD SUBSEQUENT TO DECEMBER 31, 2003 IS UNAUDITED)

1. Company’s Business
Natural Gas Systems, Inc. is a petroleum company engaged primarily in the
acquisition, exploitation and development of properties for the production
of crude oil and natural gas from underground reservoirs. Formed in
September 2003, the Company acquires established oil and gas properties
and exploits them through the application of conventional and specialized
technology to increase production, ultimate recoveries, or both. The
terms “Company” and “NGS” refer to Natural Gas Systems, Inc., and its
subsidiaries. NGS currently conducts operations through its 100% working
interest in the Delhi Field.
2. Significant Risks and Uncertainties
Preparation of the Company’s financial statements requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities and contingencies as of the balance sheet date, and the
reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On
an ongoing basis, management reviews its estimates, including those
related to litigation, environmental liabilities, income taxes,
abandonment costs and the determination of proved reserves. Changes in
circumstances may result in revised estimates and actual results may
differ from those estimates.
The Company’s business makes it vulnerable to changes in crude oil
and natural gas prices. Such prices have been volatile in the past and
can be expected to be volatile in the future. This volatility can
dramatically affect cash flows and proved reserves, since price declines
reduce the estimated quantity of proved reserves and increase annual
amortization expense (which is based on proved reserves). Other risks related to proved
reserves, revenues and cash flows include the Company’s current reliance on the
concentration of a few wells. The reserve report dated as of
January 1, 2004, identifies eight wells that make up
approximately 60% of the Company’s PV10. At July 31, 2004,
approximately 85% of the Company’s production was derived from three wells.
3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation – The consolidated financial statements
include the Company and its subsidiaries. All material intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

| Oil and Gas Properties and Furniture, Fixtures and Equipment – The Company
follows the full cost method of accounting for its investments in oil and
natural gas properties. All costs incurred in the acquisition,
exploration and development of oil and natural gas properties, including
unproductive wells, are capitalized. Included in capitalized costs are
general and administrative costs that are directly related with
acquisition, exploration and development activities. Proceeds from the
sale of oil and natural gas properties are credited to the full cost pool,
unless the sale involves a significant quantity of reserves, in which case
a gain or loss is recognized. Under the rules of the Securities and
Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for the full cost method of accounting, the
net carrying value of oil and natural gas properties, reduced by the asset
retirement obligation, is limited to the sum of the present value (10%
discount rate) of the estimated future net cash flows from proved
reserves, based on the current prices, plus the lower of cost or estimated
fair market value of unproved properties adjusted for related income tax
effects. |
| Capitalized costs of proved oil and natural gas properties are depleted on
a unit of production method using proved oil and natural gas reserves.
Costs depleted include net capitalized costs subject to depletion and
estimated future dismantlement, restoration and abandonment costs. |
| Equipment, which includes computer equipment, hardware and software and
furniture and fixtures, is recorded at cost and is generally depreciated
on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets,
which range in period of three to seven years. |
| Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. |
| Statement of Cash Flows – For purposes of the statements of cash flows,
cash equivalents include highly liquid financial instruments with
maturities of three months or less as of the date of purchase. |
| Concentrations of Credit Risk – All of the Company’s trade receivables are
due from one purchaser. Accounts receivable are generally not
collateralized. |
| Revenue Recognition – The Company recognizes oil and natural gas revenue
from its interests in producing wells as oil and natural gas is sold. |

| Stock Options – As permitted by SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock Based
Compensation,” the Company follows the accounting requirements for stock
options and stock-based awards contained in Accounting Principles Board
Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for stock Issued to Employees,” and related
Interpretations and consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force in terms
of measuring compensation expense. |
| SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” as amended by SFAS
148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and
Disclosure,” established accounting and disclosure requirements using a
fair value-based method of accounting for stock-based employee
compensation plans. The Company accounts for stock-based compensation
using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board
Opinion 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB 25”). |
| Fair Value of Financial Instruments – Our financial instruments consist of
cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and
seller notes. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts
receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the highly
liquid nature of these short-term instruments. The fair values of the
seller notes approximates their carrying amounts as of December 31, 2003,
based upon interest rates currently available to us for borrowings with
similar terms. |
| New Accounting Pronouncements – In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No.
143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations.” SFAS No. 143 requires
the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation to be
recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate
of fair value can be made. The associated asset retirement costs are
capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived assets. SFAS
No. 143 was effective for the Company at inception. |
| During December 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46R,
“Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (“FIN 46”), which requires
the consolidation of certain entities that are determined to be variable
interest entities (“VIE’s”). An entity is considered to be a VIE when
either (i) the entity lacks sufficient equity to carry on its principal
operations, (ii) the equity owners of the entity cannot make decisions
about the entity’s activities or (iii) the entity’s equity neither absorbs
losses or benefits from gains. NGS owns no interest in variable interest
entities, and therefore this new interpretation has not affected the
Company’s consolidated financial statements. |

3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Unaudited Information – The balance sheet as of March 31, 2004 and the
statements of operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 2004
were taken from the Company’s books and records without audit. However,
in the opinion of management, such information includes all adjustments
which are necessary to make not misleading the Company’s financial
position as of March 31, 2004 and the results of operations for three
months ended March 31, 2004. The results of operations for the interim
periods presented are not necessarily indicative of those expected for the
year.
4. Acquisitions
During September 2003, NGS completed the acquisition of a 100% working
interest in the Delhi Field, currently the only operating asset of the
Company. The acquisition closed on September 25, 2003, whereby NGS paid
$995,000 in cash, issued a purchase money mortgage for $1,500,000 (See
Note 7, Notes Payable, for a description of the mortgage) and assumed a
plugging and abandonment reclamation liability in the amount of
approximately $302,000 (see Note 5, Asset Retirement Obligations), in
exchange for the conveyance of all the underlying leasehold interests. In
addition to the mortgage, the property is burdened by a 20% royalty
interest.
5. Asset Retirement Obligations
When an oil or gas property ceases economic production, the Company
dismantles and removes all surface equipment, plugs the wells and restores
the property’s surface in accordance with various regulations and
agreements before abandoning the property. The state of Louisiana
requires operators of oil and gas properties to secure plugging,
abandonment and reclamation liabilities with financial collateral in favor
of the state. In the case of the Delhi Field, the previous owner had
established a Site Specific Trust Fund (SSTA Account) that is considered a
fully funded liability by the state of Louisiana. Pursuant to the
Company’s agreement to purchase the Delhi Field in September of 2003, NGS
agreed to replace the seller’s collateral on the SSTA Account within 120
days of closing. At December 31, 2003, NGS had not yet posted its
collateral, but the Company earmarked $301,835 in cash balances by
transferring this amount to “Other Assets” on the Company’s balance sheet.

| In accordance with FAS 143, the Company has recorded an estimated asset
retirement obligation (“ARO”) for its Delhi Field of approximately
$302,000, of which $274,000 relates to the Company’s wells and $28,000
relates to wells operated by the Company for a third party. Accordingly,
the Company has recorded an asset retirement obligation in the amount of
$302,000 with an offsetting $274,000 charge to the full cost pool, and a
$28,000 receivable due from the 3rd party, which was received in the
second quarter of 2004. |
| Also in accordance with FAS 143, the Company provides accretion expense on
all ARO liabilities. For the Delhi Field, NGS uses the 10-year constant
maturity Treasury yield of 4.27% available at September 30, 2003, which
equates to 1.05% per quarter. |
| During the quarter ended March 31, 2004, NGS replaced the seller’s
collateral by posting a letter of credit in the face amount of $301,835,
fully collateralized by a certificate of deposit issued on Wells Fargo
Bank. |
| The following table describes the change in the Company’s asset retirement
obligations for the period from September 23, 2003 (inception) to March
31, 2004: |

Asset retirement obligation at September 23, 2003 $
Accretion expense for 2003 3,169
Asset retirement obligation at December 31, 2003 305,004
Accretion expense for 2004 3,202
Asset retirement obligation at March 31, 2004 $ 308,206

| Depletion expense for the period from September 23, 2003 (inception) to
December 31, 2003 and for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 totaled $13,960
and $13,576, respectively. |
| During 2003, no costs were excluded from amortization. For the quarter
ended March 31, 2004, $17,203 costs were not being amortized, pending the
closing or abandonment of property acquisitions under active
consideration. |

7. Notes Payable
In September, 2003, the Company issued $1,500,000 of notes payable in
connection with its acquisition of the Delhi Field. The notes are
collateralized by a first mortgage on the Company’s Delhi field and are
payable to the sellers in twelve equal monthly installments beginning on
January 30, 2004. Although the notes bear no interest, the Company has
imputed interest at 8% per annum, thus resulting in an initial recorded
principal amount of $1,407,049. At December 31, 2003, the balance of the
notes payable was $1,436,973, including $29,924 of imputed interest. At
March 31, 2004, the principal balance outstanding was $1,088,399.
8. Common Stock and Stock Options
At December 31, 2003, the Company had 20,864,800 issued and outstanding shares of common stock. During 2003, 18,000,000 common shares were issued
as founder’s capital at $0.001 per share, and 2,864,800 common shares were
sold and issued at $1.00 per share through a private equity offering to
accredited investors.
At March 31, 2004, the Company had 21,000,200 issued and outstanding shares of common stock. During the quarter ended March 31, 2004, 135,400
common shares were sold and issued at $1.00 per share.
The Company adopted a stock option plan in 2003 (the “Plan”). The purpose
of the Plan is to offer selected individuals an opportunity to acquire a
proprietary interest in the success of the Company, or to increase such
interest, by purchasing shares of the Company’s common stock. The Plan
provides both for the direct award or sale of shares and for the grant of
options to purchase shares in an aggregate amount not to exceed 4,000,000
shares. Options granted under the Plan may include nonstatutory options
as well as incentive stock options intended to qualify under Section 422
of the Code.
At December 31, 2003, options totaling 600,000 shares of the Company’s
stock had been granted, subject to various vesting requirements. Options
to purchase 250,000, 250,000 and 100,000 shares were granted to Messrs.
Herlin, McDonald and Lee (counsel to the Company), respectively. Mr.
Herlin’s options are committed for subsequent transfer to Tatum Partners
in consideration of their services agreement with the Company. These
options were accounted for under APB 25, with respect to Messrs. Herlin
and McDonald, and under FASB 123 with respect to Mr. Lee, and gave
rise to expense of $537,150 which will be expensed over the respective
vesting periods of the options.
No options were issued during the quarter ended March 31, 2004.

| A reconciliation of reported loss as if the Company used the fair value
method of accounting for stock-based compensation has not been provided as
the results obtained from the fair value and intrinsic method were
essentially the same. |
| Fair value was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes
options pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:
risk-free interest rate of approximately 2.5%; dividend yield of 0%;
volatility factor of .001 to .25; and a weighted-average expected life of
three years. These assumptions resulted in a weighted average grant date
fair value of $.87. For purposes of the pro forma disclosures, the
estimated fair value is amortized to expense over the awards’ vesting
period. |
| The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in
estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting
restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation
models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the
expected stock price volatility. Because the Company’s employee stock
options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded
options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can
materially affect the fair value estimate, in management’s opinion, the
existing models do not necessarily provide a single measure of the fair
value of its employee stock options. Pro forma compensation cost reflected
above may not be representative of the cost to be expected in future
years. |

Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows at December 31, 2003

| The information that follows has been developed pursuant to SFAS No. 69
and utilizes reserve and production data prepared or reviewed by
independent petroleum consultants. Reserve estimates are inherently
imprecise and estimates of new discoveries are less precise than those of
producing oil and natural gas properties. Accordingly, these estimates are
expected to change as future information becomes available. |
| --- |
| The estimated discounted future net cash flows from estimated proved
reserves are based on prices and costs as of the date of the estimate
unless such prices or costs are contractually determined at such date.
Actual future prices and costs may be materially higher or lower. Actual
future net revenues also will be affected by factors such as actual
production, supply and demand for oil and natural gas, curtailments or
increases in consumption by natural gas purchasers, changes in
governmental regulations or taxation and the impact of inflation on costs.
Future income tax expense has been reduced for the effect of available net
operating loss carryforwards. |

company. Following completion of the merger, Reality Interactive
changed its name to Natural Gas Systems, Inc. The Company’s trading
symbol is NGSY and trades on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board (OTCBB).
The completion of the merger earned Cagan McAfee Capital Partners the
$300,000 fee described in Note 10, Related Party Transactions. |
| During the 2nd calendar quarter of 2004, NGS completed its 2nd round
private equity offering to accredited investors for the sale of 750,000
common shares at an effective price of $1 per share and began its 3rd
round private equity offering to accredited investors, of which, 250,000
common shares have been sold at an effective price of $1 per share (the
“effective price” includes warrants attached, all of which were
immediately exercised). Expenses for both offerings include placement
fees equal to 8% of proceeds, plus warrants exercisable at $1 per share on
8% of shares sold (additional to the warrants issued above). All offering
expenses were payable to Cagan McAfee Capital Partners in accordance with

NOTES TO STATEMENT OF REVENUES AND DIRECT OPERATING EXPENSES

1. Basis of Preparation
The accompanying historical summaries of revenues and direct operating
expenses relate to the operations of the Delhi Field oil and gas
properties acquired by Natural Gas Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) on
September 23, 2003 from Delta Exploration
and Development Co. and Camark Production Co. The properties were acquired
for $1,000,000 in cash and an interest-free note payable in the amount of
$1,495,000.
Revenues are recorded when the Company’s share of oil or natural gas and
related liquids are sold. Direct operating expenses are recorded when the
related liability is incurred. Direct operating expenses include lease
operating expenses, ad valorem taxes and production taxes. Depreciation
and amortization of oil and gas properties, general and administrative
expenses and income taxes have been excluded from operating expenses in
the accompanying historical summaries because the amounts would not be
comparable to those resulting from proposed future operations.
The historical summaries presented herein were prepared for the purpose of
complying with the financial statement requirements of a business
acquisition to be filed on Form 8-K as promulgated by Regulation S-B Item
3-10 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
2. Supplemental Information on Oil and Gas Reserves (Unaudited)
Proved oil and gas reserves consist of those estimated quantities of crude
oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids that geological and engineering
data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future
years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating
conditions.
The following estimates of proved reserves have been made by independent
engineers, based on the 80% net revenue interest purchased by the Company.
The estimated net interest in proved reserves are based upon subjective
engineering judgments and may be affected by the limitations inherent in
such estimation. The process of estimating reserves is subject to
continual revision as additional information becomes available as a result
of drilling, testing, reservoir studies and production history. There can
be no assurance that such estimates will not be materially revised in
subsequent periods.

| The primary changes in the standardized measure of discounted estimated
future net cash flows for the period from January 1, 2003 to September 23,
2003 and for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2002, were as
follows: |

Revision of estimates and other 25,828 (169,664 )
End of period $ 4,900,040 $ 4,637,512

| Estimated future cash inflows are computed by applying year-end prices of
oil and gas to year-end quantities of proved reserves. Estimated future
development and production costs are determined by estimating the
expenditures to be incurred in developing and producing the proved oil and
gas reserves at the end of the year, based on period-end costs and
assuming continuation of existing economic conditions. Estimated future
income tax expense is calculated by applying year-end statutory tax rates
to estimated future pre-tax net cash flows related to proved oil and gas
reserves, less Natural Gas Systems’ tax basis of the properties involved
as if the purchase had occurred at April 1, 2002. |
| --- |
| The assumptions used to compute the standardized measure are those
prescribed by the Financial Accounting Standards Board and as such, do not
necessarily reflect the Company’s expectations of actual revenues to be
derived from those reserves nor their present worth. The limitations
inherent in the reserve quantity estimation process are equally applicable
to the standardized measure computations since these estimates are the
basis for the valuation process. |
