PRELIMINARY NOTE

The Reporting Persons (hereinafter defined) named in this Schedule 13D have previously filed a Schedule 13D or Schedule 13G. This Schedule 13D is not intended to supersede or amend any prior Schedule 13D or Schedule 13G. This Schedule 13D is being filed because the Reporting Persons in light of activities undertaken or to be undertaken, may be deemed to be members of a group that may be deemed to be the beneficial owner in the aggregate of in excess of five percent (5%) of the Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Beta Oil & Gas, Inc., a Nevada corporation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the filing of this Schedule 13D should not be deemed an admission that the Reporting Persons comprise a group within the meaning of §13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

The information contained in this Schedule 13D is as of the date hereof, unless otherwise expressly provided herein.

Item 1. Security and Issuer.

As stated in the Preliminary Note above, the Reporting Persons, although they are not admitting that they comprise a group within the meaning of §13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act, are filing this Schedule 13D in light of activities undertaken or to be undertaken, because they may be deemed to be members of a group that may be

At the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company to be held June 20, 2003 at 10:00 a.m. C.D.T., the Reporting Persons, by exercising their right of cumulative voting pursuant to the Nevada Revised Statutes, the Company’s Proxy Statement dated May 19, 2003 and the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended, plan to (i) nominate during such meeting one or two persons to be elected as directors of the Company, (ii) vote against the proposed amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, and (iii) vote against the proposed amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated 1999 Incentive and Nonstatutory Stock Option Plan.

On this date, the Reporting Persons have delivered to the Secretary of the Company their written notice to exercise their right of cumulative voting. In addition, S.

No other contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) among the Reporting Persons and any other person with respect to any securities of the Company, including, but not limited to, transfer or voting of any of such securities, finder’s fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies, exist.
