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.    A cash distribution was made to the limited partners of the Company in the
      amount of $14,593,  representing net revenues from the sale of oil and gas
      produced from properties owned by the Company.  This distribution was made
      on January 31, 1996.

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

First Quarter 1996 Compared to First Quarter 1995

Oil and gas  sales for the  first  quarter  increased  from  $74,932  in 1995 to
$89,912  in 1996.  This  represents  an  increase  of $14,980  (20%).  Oil sales
increased  $10,434 or 16%. A 33% increase in average oil prices  increased sales
by  $19,098.  This  increase  was  partially  offset  by a 13%  decrease  in oil
production.  Gas sales increased by $4,546 or 53%. A 14% increase in average gas
prices  increased  sales by $1,617.  A 34% increase in gas production  increased
sales by an additional  $2,929. The decrease in oil production was primarily the
result of natural  production  declines.  The  increase  in gas  production  was
primarily  the  result  of  enhanced  production  improvements  on  the  Concord
acquisition.  The  changes  in average  prices  correspond  with  changes in the
overall market for the sale of oil and gas.

Lease operating  expenses decreased from $25,535 in the first quarter of 1995 to
$18,420 in the first quarter of 1996.  The decrease of $7,115 (28%) is primarily
due to workover costs incurred on the Concord acquisition in 1995.

Depreciation and depletion  expense  decreased from $33,442 in the first quarter
of 1995 to $25,500 in the first quarter of 1996.  This  represents a decrease of
$7,942 (24%).  A 19% decrease in the  depletion  rate reduced  depreciation  and
depletion  expense by $5,904.  The changes in production,  noted above,  reduced
depreciation and depletion expense by an additional  $2,038. The decrease in the
depletion  rate was primarily the result of upward  revisions of the oil and gas
reserves at December 31, 1995.

General and administrative expenses decreased from $11,498 in 1995 to $10,506 in
1996.  This decrease of $992 is primarily due to less staff time being  required
to manage the Company's operations.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

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

The Company will continue to recover its reserves and  distribute to the limited
partners the net proceeds realized from the sale of oil and gas production after
the payment of its debt obligations.  Distribution amounts are subject to change
if net  revenues  are greater or less than  expected.  Nonetheless,  the general
partner  believes the Company will continue to have sufficient cash flow to fund
operations and to maintain a regular pattern of distributions.

As of March 31,  1996,  the  Company  had no  material  commitments  for capital
expenditures.  The  Company  does  not  intend  to  engage  in  any  significant
developmental drilling activity.
