AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (the "Agreement") dated as of November
4, 1992 is entered into by and between Texoil Company, a Tennessee corporation
("Texoil"), Comet Entertainment, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("Comet"), and Comet
Acquisition Subsidiary, Inc. ("Subsidiary"), a Nevada corporation which is a
wholly owned subsidiary of Comet.

RECITALS

A. The Boards of Directors of Comet and Texoil, respectively, deem it to
be in the best interests of Comet and Texoil and their respective shareholders
that Subsidiary merge with and into Texoil pursuant to this Agreement and an
agreement of merger (the "Agreement or Merger") substantially in the form of
Exhibit A attached hereto.

B. Comet, Subsidiary, and Texoil propose to enter into the Agreement of
Merger which provides, among other things, for the merger of Subsidiary with and
into Texoil (the "Merger"). The Agreement of Merger also provides for the
conversion of each share of Texoil Common Stock ("Texoil Common Stock"),
adjusted for full dilution, into 9.2194 shares of Comet Common Stock, after
Comet gives effect to a 28 to 1 reverse split up and conversion of each of its
outstanding shares of Comet $.001 par value common stock ("Comet Common Stock"),
resulting in 432,994 shares issued and outstanding. Additionally, each of the
outstanding shares of Texoil $100 par value preferred stock ("Texoil Preferred
Stock") to be issued shall be converted into one (1) share of Comet $.01 par
value Series A preferred stock ("Comet Preferred Stock"). Each share of Comet
Preferred Stock will be voting; redeemable; convertible into the number of
shares determined by dividing the liquidation value ($100) of a share of Comet
Preferred Stock by the price per share to the public in the first public
offering of Comet Common Stock subsequent to the merger; convertible into Comet
Common Stock at any time no later than five (5) days prior to redemption, but in
no event prior to any public offering of Comet Common Stock registered with the
Securities and Exchange Commission; pays cumulative quarterly dividends at the
annual rate of $12.00 per share; and have a liquidation preference of $100 plus
cumulative accrued unpaid dividends. At the Effective Date (defined in Section
1.1 below), Comet shall have issued a number of shares of Comet Common Stock to
the shareholders or Texoil, in exchange for all of the then issued and
outstanding shares of Texoil Common Stock, equal to 95.0% of Comet Common Stock
after giving effect to such issuance, but adjusted for the full dilution of both
Comet Common Stock and Texoil Common Stock for outstanding options, warrants,
other purchase rights or securities convertible into common stocks if any, as
described in Schedules 2.2 and 3.2; and Comet shall have issued 23,000 shares of
Comet Preferred Stock in exchange for all of the then issued and outstanding
shares of Texoil Preferred Stock.

C. The Boards of Directors of Comet, Subsidiary, and Texoil, respectively,
have approved and adopted this Agreement and the Agreement of Merger as a plan
of reorganization

within the provisions of ss.338(a)(1)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the "Code"), pursuant to ss. 368(a)(2)(E).

NOW, THEREFORE the parties hereto agree as follows:

SECTION 1. THE MERGER

1.1. FILING OF THE AGREEMENT OF MERGER. Subject to Sections 4 and 5 of
this Agreement, the Agreement of Merger shall be executed by each of the parties
hereto and delivered to the Secretary of State of Nevada, for filing as provided
in ss. 78.470 of the Nevada Revised Statutes ("NRS") as soon as practicable
following the time when the last of the conditions of the Merger shall have been
fulfilled or waived as provided herein or such earlier or later date as may be
mutually agreed upon by Comet, Subsidiary, and Texoil. Cornet, Subsidiary, and
Texoil shall also execute, acknowledge and deliver such other documents or
certificates as may be required to effect the Merger (such other documents and
this Agreement and the Agreement of Merger is herein collectively referred to as
the "Merger Documents"). The day and time of the filing of the Agreement of
Merger with the Secretary of State of Nevada pursuant to this paragraph is
herein referred to as the "Effective Date." Comet, Subsidiary, and Texoil agree
to use their best efforts to consummate the Merger by December 1, 1992.

1.2. MERGER. Subsidiary shall be merged with and into Texoil, and the
separate existence of Subsidiary shall cease. Texoil shall be the surviving
corporation. Comet shall subsequently file an amendment to its Article of
Incorporation to change its name to Texoil, Inc. or some other appropriate name.

1.3. CORPORATE DOCUMENTS. The amended and restated Articles of
Incorporation and Bylaws of comet as in effect on the Effective Date shall
thereafter remain in full force and effect until amended or an appeal is
provided by law.

1.4. TERMS OF MERGER. Comet agrees as of the Effective Date of the Merger
to issue certificates representing shares of Comet Common Stock and Comet
preferred Stock to the extent set forth herein, and in accordance with the terms
of the Agreement of Merger. The exchange ratio of Comet Common Stock for each
share of Texoil Common Stock, and of Comet Preferred Stock for each share of
Texoil Preferred Stock, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the
Effective Date shall be as set forth in the Agreement of Merger and shall be
subject to adjustment as follows: in the event that, subsequent to the date of
this Agreement but prior to the Effective Date, the outstanding shares of Comet
Common Stock and Comet Preferred Stock or Texoil Common Stock and Texoil
Preferred Stock shall, without adequate consideration, have been increased,
decreased, changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or
securities through reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, stock
dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, or other like changes in Comet or
Texoil capitalization, then an appropriate and proportionate adjustment shall be
made in the number and kind of shares or securities to be thereafter delivered
to the holders of Texoil Common Stock and Texoil Preferred Stock in the Merger.

provisions of, any judgment, law or regulation, or Comet's Articles of
Incorporation or Bylaws, or any lease, contract, mortgage, deed of trust,

charge or encumbrance of any nature whatsoever on the property or assets
of Comet and no such event of itself or with the giving of notice or the
passage of time or both will result in the acceleration of the due date of
any obligation to which Comet is bound.

investigation either pending or, to the best knowledge of its officers and
directors, threatened against, respectively, Comet or any of its officers

reimburse Texoil and each such director, officer or shareholder for any legal or
other expenses reasonably incurred by them or any of them in connection with
investigating or defending any actions whether or not resulting in any

actions result from a breach or alleged breach of the representations,
warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement, or arise out of or are
based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
contained in this Agreement, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or
alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein

action in respect of which indemnity may be sought against Comet hereunder, the
indemnified party will notify Comet in writing thereof, and Comet shall, subject

Re: Marketing Agreement

Dear ▇▇▇:

The following revised agreement, as well as Exhibit A will detail our
formal agreement for services to be provided and compensation needed to raise
approximately $10 million for TEXOIL and establish a market for TEXOIL common
stock.

I. The Antry Group will act as an independent contractor commencing 12/1/92
for a twelve month period at a rate of $10,000 per month. This monthly fee
will be used for staff salaries to provide for services including, but not
limited to, the following: coordination with legal counsel (all applicable
securities and blue sky laws), facilitating necessary banking and escrow
services, payment of commissions, coordination of prospectus preparation
and printing, utilization of Broker/Dealer database to the benefit of
TEXOIL, setting up road shows during offering period and on-going stock
promotion and tracking all marketing materials sent out to brokers. The
Antry Group would establish and promote an ongoing relationship for TEXOIL
with brokers, investors and the media through telemarketing efforts and
other forms of proactive contacts.

II. COMMON STOCK

A. Three percent (3%) of the TEXOIL common stock, based on number of
shares issued prior to initial public offering, will be issued to
the Antry Group.

B. As an additional incentive the Antry Group will receive up to
50,000 options to be granted with immediate vesting at the market
price on the closing of the offering. These options will be
prorated in direct proportion to the amount raised in excess of the
original $10 million and will be known as the second $10 million
incentive. For example, if an additional $5 million is raised over
the original $10 million, then the Antry Group would receive 25,000
options.

III. COMMISSIONS

A. Retail: A 6% - 7 1/2% retail commission will be paid to NASD
broker/dealers.

B. Wholesale: A network of financial wholesalers across the country
will be assembled by the Antry Group and will be paid a 3% fee on
gross sales. See attached Exhibit A detailing commission payments.
The combined commission paid to all parties would not exceed 10.5%.

IV. EXPENSES

Direct expenses related to the offering and promotion of TEXOIL will be
reimbursed by TEXOIL. This will include approved expenses such as
printing, postage, travel and entertainment.

V. STOCK OPTION

A 500,000 share stock option plan will be put in place by TEXOXL.
Approximately 200.000 share will be used as an incentive for key brokers
and wholesalers during the offering period and ongoing promotion of the
public company. All granting of options will be approved by TEXOIL with
specific criteria for performance and responsibilities for financial
connultants established and reviewed by (quarterly, semi-annually or
annually) TEXOIL management. The option plan will be on a 3 year vesting
or exercise schedule, and will be determined at a later point. The
remaining 300,000 options could be used sometime in the future for other
offerings and to attract key employees to TEXOIL.

VI. FIELD TRIP

In order to lend a more "hands on" feel to the promotion of TEXOIL, a
Argentine field trip scheduled during the filming of the documentary would
be paid for by TEXOIL for one member of the Antry Group.

If this Marketing Agreement and attached Exhibit A meet with your
approval, please execute both copies and return one to me at your earliest
convenience.

Re: MARKETING AGREEMENT

Dear ▇▇▇:

I recently sent to you a draft of a letter agreement, dated August 12,
regarding the anticipated marketing relationship between TEXOIL and my group. It
contained key components of the compensation package and various other related
terms.

I would now like to outline for you some noncompensatory provisions that
we should include in our marketing arrangement:

1. MARKETING EXCLUSIVITY. In order for the Antry Group to be able to
properly fulfill its responsibilities and perform its obligation. under the
marketing agreement, it is necessary that TEXOIL deal exclusively with The Antry
Group for all marketing services involving TEXOIL securities during the term of
the relationship. TEXOIL will work solely with The Antry Group in this respect
and will not take any actions which would contravene or hinder the ability of
The Antry Group to exclusively market the TEXOIL securities. The Antry Group
will be the sole supplier of the services included within the marketing
agreement and will be the sole provider and Organizer of the network of
wholesalers, brokers and dealers for the sale of the TEXOIL securities.

2. CONFIDENTIALITY. The terms of the marketing agreement between us will
be kept confidential by both of us, and will not be disclosed to any third
parties except as might be required by law or as might otherwise be necessary
and appropriate for business, tax, accounting, legal or similar purposes. Any
and all confidential information that either of us might acquire ro learn about

r. ▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇.
August 20, 1992
Page two

the other will be kept confidential so long as such information does not
otherwise become nonconfidential.

3. COMMISSION PAYMENTS. TEXOIL will not make any arrangements with (or pay
any commissions or other compensation to) any underwriters, wholesalers,
brokers, dealers or others, except through the Antry Group. The payment of
commissions and other compensation for the sale of the TEXOIL securities (and
the reporting of such compensation for tax, securities and other purposes) will
be made or done in a manner to be determined by The Antry Group in its
reasonable discretion a(and in compliance with all applicable laws). For
example, The Antry Group might decide that it would be best to pay retail
commissions from TEXOIL directly to the brokers or dealers or it might choose to
have these commissions paid to The Antry Group and then disbursed by it to the
broker or dealer.

4. BEST EFFORTS. the Antry Group will use its best efforts in rendering
the marketing services. The Antry Group will not be excluded from rendering
securities or other marketing services to persons or entities other than TEXOIL
during and after the term of this agreement, provided that The Antry Group will
not undertake any such third party arrangements if doing so has a significant
adverse impact on its ability to perform satisfactorily its services to TEXOIL.

5. INDEMNITY. TEXOIL and The Antry Group will each (the "indemnitor")
indemnify, defend and hold harmless the other (the "indemnitee") from any and
all claims, damages, obligations and costs (including attorney fees and legal
costs) incurred or suffered by the indemnitee as a result of actions or
omissions of the indemnitor. To the extent that the actions or omissions of both
parties contributed to such claims, etc., this indemnity obligations all be
apportioned according to the relative contributions of each.

Very truly yours,

Dear ▇▇▇▇▇▇:

I certainly enjoyed to trip to San Diego with you last week and the opportunity
to meet ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. Needless to say, I was very impressed
with the thoroughness of all of your plans and am excited about the prospect of
joining the Texoil team. This letter will serve to document our discussions
regarding my proposed employment.

RESPONSIBILITIES

As your chief financial officer, I will have overall responsibilities for the
Company's ongoing financial and accounting operations. In addition to the duties
normally associated with such a position, it is recognized that in November
1992, Texoil plans to merge with Comet Entertainment, Inc., a public company,
and then subsequently sale to the public approximately 30% of the Company's
voting common stock.

In conjunction with the filing of the registration statement referred to above,
I will be responsible for coordinating the gathering of information and
presentation of the disclosures required to be made therein. Such coordination
will include, but not necessarily be limited to, interface with the following
individuals and/or groups engaged by the Company: (a) attorneys; (b) auditors;
(c) reserve engineers; (d) investor relations (e.g., ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇); (e) printers;
and (f) public relations (e.g., ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇). I will, of course, also
coordinate the efforts of the company and the above-named groups with the
activities of the underwriters, if any, although it is acknowledged that ▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ will be primarily responsible for contracts with the underwriters.

COMPENSATION

r. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
October 26, 1992
Page 2

In consideration for devoting my full-time efforts to the performance of the
above-described duties, Ill be compensated at the rate of $6,500 per month,
payable at the end of each month. In addition, I will be entitled to whatever
benefits are normally accorded to the officers of the company. In recognition of
the fact that the Company does not currently provide medical insurance to its
employees, I will be paid an additional allowance of $500 per month in order to
secure such converge for myself and my family, so long as the Company does not
offer a group medical insurance plan.

Upon the expiration of either six months, or the successful completion of the
public offering, whichever occurs later, I will be entitled to have my
compensation adjusted to an amount that is determined by the Board of Directors
to be reasonable compensation for the chief financial officer of a similarly
situated public oil and gas company.

TIMING

My current plans are to resign from Price Waterhouse effective at the end of
this month. Therefore, Ill be available to begin my new duties at Texoil in
November. I am looking forward to a mutually beneficial relationship with you,
▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇ and everyone else who has worked so hard to make your company the
success that is now and that I believe it can further become in the future.

If the foregoing meets with your approval, I ask that you sign both of the
enclosed originals of this letter, retain one for the Company's records and
return one to me.

Sincerely,

D. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Jr.
