<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman"><font style="font-size:10.0pt;">On October 20, 2004, Natural
Gas Systems, Inc. (&#147;NGS&#148;) entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the &#147;Seaside
Agreement&#148;) with Seaside Investments PLC, </font>a corporation organized under
the laws of England and Wales (&#147;Seaside&#148;).&#160;
The Seaside Agreement provides for the issuance by NGS to Seaside of 1,000,000
shares of NGS common stock (&#147;NGS Common Stock&#148;) in exchange for up to 1,484,031
ordinary shares of Seaside (&#147;Seaside Ordinary Shares&#148;).&#160; The Seaside Agreement and related Escrow
Agreement provide for the shares of NGS Common Stock and the Seaside Ordinary
Shares to be placed in escrow pending the satisfaction of certain closing
conditions, including the admission of the Seaside Ordinary Shares for listing
on the London Stock Exchange (the &#147;Seaside Listing&#148;).&#160; In addition, the Seaside Agreement provides that 30% of the
Seaside Ordinary Shares will remain in escrow for one year following the
closing and will be subject to return to Seaside in the event that the market
price of the NGS Common Stock as of the one year anniversary of the closing is
less than $2.695.&#160; In the event the
market price decreases by 30% or more, all of such shares shall be returned to
Seaside; in the event the price declines by less than 30%, a proportionate
number of shares shall be returned.&#160; In
the event the Seaside Listing is not obtained by October 30, 2004, NGS will
have the option to terminate the Seaside Agreement, in which case the Seaside
Ordinary Shares and the shares of NGS Common Stock will be returned to Seaside
and NGS, respectively.</font></p>

indicate below the form in which you will hold title to your interest in the
Shares.&#160; PLEASE CONSIDER CAREFULLY.&#160; ONCE YOUR SUBSCRIPTION IS ACCEPTED, A CHANGE
IN THE FORM OF TITLE CON&#173;STI&#173;TUTES A TRANSFER OF THE INTEREST IN THE SHARES AND
MAY THEREFORE BE RESTRICTED BY THE TERMS OF THIS SUBSCRIPTION, AND MAY RESULT
IN ADDITIONAL COSTS TO YOU.&#160; Subscribers
should seek the advice of their attorneys in deciding in which of the forms
they should take ownership of the interest in the Shares, because different
forms of ownership can have varying gift tax, estate tax, income tax, and other
consequences, depending on the state of the inves&#173;tor&#146;s domicile and his or her
particular personal circumstances.</font></p>
