by Swift Energy Company, a Texas corporation ("Swift" or the "Managing General
Partner"), pursuant to Section 13(e) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and Rule 13e-3 thereunder in connection with
the solicitation by the Managing General Partner of proxies from the limited
partners of Swift Energy Managed Pension Assets Partnership 1991-A, Ltd. (the
"Partnership"). The purpose of the proxy solicitation is to obtain the approval
of the limited partners of the Partnership to sell all of its assets and
liquidate the Partnership. The Managing General Partner may purchase some of the
Property Interests of the Partnership at auction if the minimum price set by an
independent appraisal is not bid by a third party at the auction. The
Partnership filed a preliminary proxy statement (the "Proxy Statement") on
Schedule 14A with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") in accordance
