This Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement") is entered into effective
as of the 1st day of October, 1999, by and between Indian Oil Company, an
Oklahoma corporation ("Seller"), and INDCO L.L.C., an Oklahoma limited liability
company ("Buyer").
WHEREAS, Seller has entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as
amended, the "Merger Agreement") with, among other parties, Coral Reserves, Inc.
