NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.       The  interim  financial   information  included  herein  is  unaudited;
         however,  such information reflects all adjustments  (consisting solely
         of  normal  recurring   adjustments)  which  are,  in  the  opinion  of
         management,  necessary  for a fair  presentation  of  results  for  the
         interim periods.

2.)      On August 9, 1996, the Company's General Partner submitted  preliminary
         proxy material to the Securities Exchange Commission with respect to a
         proposed consolidation of the Company with 33 other managed  limited 
         partnerships.  The terms and conditions of the proposed  consolidation
         are set forth in such preliminary proxy material.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.


Second Quarter 1996 Compared to Second Quarter 1995

Oil and gas sales for the  second  quarter  increased  to  $34,652  in 1996 from
$33,514 in 1995. This represents an increase of $1,138 (3%). Oil sales decreased
by $886 (3%). An 8% decrease in oil  production  reduced  sales by $2,385.  This
decrease was  partially  offset by a 5% increase in the average oil sales price.
Gas sales  increased  by $2,024  (52%).  A 34% increase in the average gas sales
price  increased  sales by $1,489.  A 14% increase in gas  production  increased
sales  by an  additional  $535.  The  increases  in  the  average  sales  prices
correspond  with changes in the overall  market for the sale of oil and gas. The
decrease in oil production was primarily due to natural production declines. The
increase in gas production  was primarily the result of the enhanced  production
improvements on the Concord acquisition.

Lease operating  expenses for the second quarter  decreased to a negative $48 in
1996 from  $4,619 in 1995.  The  decrease  of $4,667 is  primarily  due from the
settlement of the Company's equity  investment in an electric  cooperative which
resulted from the purchase of electricity used on the Florida  acquisition while
it was owned by the Company.

Depreciation and depletion expense decreased to $10,281 in the second quarter of
1996 from $14,083 in the second quarter of 1995.  This  represents a decrease of
$3,802 (27%).  A 24% decrease in the  depletion  rate reduced  depreciation  and
depletion  expense by $3,282.  The changes in production,  noted above,  reduced
depreciation  and depletion  expense by an additional  $520. The decrease in the
depletion rate is primarily the result of an upward  revision of the oil and gas
reserves during December 1995.

General and administrative expenses incurred during the second quarter increased
to $6,199 in 1996 from $3,272 in 1995.  This increase of $2,927 is primarily due
to more staff time being required to manage the Company's operations.


First Six Months in 1996 Compared to First Six Months in 1995

Oil and gas sales for the first six  months  increased  to  $72,158 in 1996 from
$65,535  in 1995.  This  represents  an  increase  of  $6,623  (10%).  Oil sales
increased by $2,494  (4%).  A 19% increase in average oil sales price  increased
sales by $9,671.  This  increase was  partially  offset by a 12% decrease in oil
production.  Gas sales  increased by $4,129 (52%). A 23% increase in average gas
sales  prices  increased  sales by  $2,272.  A 24%  increase  in gas  production
increased  sales by an  additional  $1,857.  The  increases in the average sales
prices  correspond  with  changes in the overall  market for the sale of oil and
gas. The decrease in oil  production  was  primarily  due to natural  production
declines.  The  increase  in gas  production  was  primarily  the  result of the
enhanced production improvements on the Concord acquisition.

Lease  operating  expenses  incurred  during the first six months  decreased  to
$12,004 in 1996 from $15,364 in 1995.  The decrease of $3,360 (22%) is primarily
due from the  settlement  of the  Company's  equity  investment  in an  electric
cooperative  which resulted from the purchase of electricity used on the Florida
acquisition while it was owned by the Company.


Depreciation and depletion  expense decreased to $21,969 in the first six months
of 1996 from $29,657 in the first six months of 1995. This represents a decrease
of $7,688 (26%). A 21% decrease in the depletion rate reduced  depreciation  and
depletion  expense by $5,941.  The changes in production,  noted above,  reduced
depreciation  and  depletion  by an  additional  $1,747.  The  decrease  in  the
depletion rate is primarily the result of an upward  revision of the oil and gas
reserves during December 1995.

General and administrative expenses increased to $14,056 in the first six months
of 1996 from $7,953 in the first six months of 1995.  This increase of $6,103 is
primarily  due to more  staff  time  being  required  to  manage  the  Company's
operations.


CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

The  Company's  cash  flow is a direct  result  of the  amount  of net  proceeds
realized from the sale of oil and gas  production and the issuance of additional
debt. Accordingly,  the changes in cash flow from 1995 to 1996 are primarily due
to the changes in oil and gas sales described above and the repayment of $10,204
on a note to the general partner in 1995. It is the general partner's  intention
to distribute  substantially all of the Company's  remaining available cash flow
to the Company's partners.

The Company  discontinued the payment of  distributions in January 1994.  Future
distributions  are dependent upon, among other things, an increase in the prices
received for oil and gas. The Company will  continue to recover its reserves and
reduce its obligations in 1996. Based upon current projected cash flows from its
property,  it does not appear that the Company will have  sufficient cash to pay
its operating expense, repay its debt obligations and pay distributions.

On August 9, 1996, the Company's  General Partner  submitted  preliminary  proxy
material  to the  Securities  Exchange  Commission  with  respect  to a proposed
consolidation  of the Company with 33 other managed  limited  partnerships.  The
terms  and  conditions  of the  proposed  consolidation  are set  forth  in such
preliminary proxy material.

As of June 30,  1996,  the  Company  had no  material  commitments  for  capital
expenditures.  The  Company  does  not  intend  to  engage  in  any  significant
developmental drilling activity.
