              PETROCORP INCORPORATED 401(k) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN
                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (unaudited)


NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF PLAN:

The following description of the PetroCorp Incorporated 401(k) Retirement
Savings Plan (the Plan) provides only general information.  Participants should
refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan's
provisions.


General

The Plan is a defined contribution 401(k) retirement savings plan, adopted
January 1, 1993.  Employees of PetroCorp Incorporated (the Company) become
eligible to participate in the Plan after six months of service with the
Company.  The entry date for each employee is the first day of the month
following the sixth month of service. The Plan is subject to the provisions of
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).

All Plan contributions are invested in separate pooled accounts under an annuity
contract with Principal Mutual Life Insurance Company (Principal) or in common
stock of the Company.


Contributions

Participants may contribute to the Plan subject to certain Internal Revenue Code
limitations.  The Company may match up to 100 percent of each participant's
contributions not to exceed six (6) percent of each participant's annual
compensation.  Additionally, the Company may make discretionary contributions on
behalf of the participants.  In any event, total contributions by the
participant and the Company may not exceed 20 percent of the participant's
annual compensation.  During 2001 and 2000, each participant could contribute up
to 14 percent of his annual compensation with the Company matching up to six (6)
percent, except in certain cases subject to Internal Revenue Code limitations.

The Plan also allows participants to "rollover" contributions that have been
made to other qualified plans.


Participant accounts

Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contributions, the
Company's contributions and a pro rata share of the earnings of each fund in
which the participant has invested.  The benefit to which a participant is
entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant's account.


Vesting

Participants are fully vested at all times in their individual contributions and
"rollover" contributions plus actual earnings thereon.

                                       4


Vesting in employer contributions and related earnings is based on the
participant's employment commencement date and years of continuous service.
Participant's whose employment commencement date occurred before January 1, 1994
are 100% vested.  Participant's whose employment commencement date occurred on
or after January 1, 1994 are vested as follows:


          Vesting Service                             Vesting
           (whole years)                            Percentage
           -------------                            ----------

          Less than 1 year                              0%
             1 year                                    25%
             2 years                                   50%
             3 years                                   75%
          4 or more years                             100%

In addition, participants also become fully vested in their employer
contributions and related earnings upon retirement, at or after age 65, or upon
death or total disability of the participant.


Investment options

Effective January 1, 1994, upon enrollment in the Plan, a participant may direct
contributions in any of fourteen investment options as follows:

     Guaranteed Interest Account - Funds are invested in a guaranteed investment
     contract (GIC) with Principal.

     Money Market Account - This is a separate pooled account with Principal in
     which the funds are invested in high quality commercial paper with average
     maturities kept under 30 days to ensure current money market rates.

     Government Securities Account - This is a separate pooled account with
     Principal in which the funds are invested primarily in very high quality
     government mortgage-backed securities.

     Bond & Mortgage Account - This is a separate pooled account with Principal
     in which the funds are invested in investment grade private placement
     bonds, commercial mortgages, public corporate bonds and mortgage-backed
     securities, all generally mature within five to 10 years.

     Bond Emphasis Balanced Account - This is a separate pooled account with
     Principal in which funds are invested in many asset classes, but emphasizes
     fixed income. This account invests 50 to 100 percent of the funds in
     Principal fixed-income separate pooled accounts, with the remainder in
     Principal equity separate pooled accounts.

     Stock Emphasis Balanced Account - This is a separate pooled account with
     Principal in which funds are invested in many asset classes, but emphasizes
     equities. This account invests 50 to 100 percent of the funds in Principal
     equity separate pooled accounts, with the remainder in Principal
     fixed-income separate pooled accounts.

                                       5


     Stock Index 500 Account - This is a separate pooled account with Principal
     in which the funds are invested in the same stocks and in the same
     proportions as those stocks included in the Standard & Poor's 500 Stock
     Index.

     Large Company Blend Account - This is a separate pooled account with
     Principal in which funds are invested in stocks of very large established
     companies.

     Medium Company Value Account - This is a separate pooled account with
     Principal in which the funds are invested in primarily income-producing
     common stocks that are under-valued in the marketplace according to
     traditional measures of value.

     Small Company Blend Account - This is a separate pooled account with
     Principal in which funds are invested in stocks of smaller, fast-growing
     companies.

     Medium Company Blend Account - This is a separate pooled account with
     Principal in which funds are invested in stocks of large, established
     companies whose earnings are expected to grow faster than the average
     company.

     International Stock Account - This is a separate pooled account with
     Principal in which the funds are invested in stocks of non-U.S. companies
     located primarily in Europe and Southeast Asia.

     Real Estate Account - This is a separate pooled account with Principal in
     which the funds are invested in equity investments in modern, developed,
     income- producing warehouses, office buildings and retail centers in major
     U.S. metropolitan areas. Earnings consist of property value changes and net
     rental income.

     Company Stock - Funds are invested in the common stock of the Company.


Payment of benefits

Distribution of the participant's entire account balance becomes due and payable
upon retirement, at or after age 65, or upon death or total disability of the
participant. Such account balances may be distributed either in a lump-sum
distribution or in installments, as described in the Plan agreement. Upon
termination of employment, a participant may elect to receive a lump-sum
distribution equal to the vested balance of the participant's account or
continue to participate in the Plan investments. If the vested balance is less
than $3,500, payment is made as soon as administratively practicable after
termination. Additionally, participants may make hardship withdrawals from their
individual contribution accounts at specified times during the Plan year,
subject to certain restrictions.


Participants' notes receivable

Under the terms of the Plan, with certain restrictions, participants may borrow
from their accounts a minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum of the lessor of $50,000
or 50 percent of their vested account balances. A loan is secured by the vested
balance in the participant's account and bears interest at the prime interest
rate plus two (2) percent. No loans were made in 2001 or 2000.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

Under the Department of Labor Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure
under ERISA, the Plan files Form 5500-C/R which is required for employee benefit
plans with fewer than 100 participants. Employee benefit plans with 100 or more
participants are required to file Form 5500. Those plans filing Form 5500 are
required to prepare audited financial statements as well as all applicable
schedules required by Section 2520.103-10 of the Department of Labor's Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under ERISA. Such requirements are not
mandated for those plans filing Form 5500-C/R. Accordingly, the attached
financial statements are unaudited and the above mentioned schedules are not
presented.


Method of accounting

The Plan's financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.


Investments

Plan investments, other than the GIC's, are stated at fair value. The Company
stock is valued at its quoted market price. Separate pooled accounts are valued
at net asset value representing the value at which units of the account may be
purchased or redeemed.

The Plan's GIC's are valued at contract value. Contract value represents
contributions made under the contract plus interest at the guaranteed rate.


Contributions

Participant contributions are recorded in the period during which the Company
makes payroll deductions from the Plan participants' earnings. Matching Company
contributions are recorded in the same period.
