ENEX OIL & GAS INCOME PROGRAM III - SERIES 5, L.P.

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.    The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued Statement of Financial
      Accounting  Standard  ("SFAS") No. 121,  "Accounting for the Impairment of
      Long-Lived  Assets and for  Long-Lived  Assets to be  Disposed  Of," which
      requires  certain assets to be reviewed for impairment  whenever events or
      circumstances indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable.  In the
      first  quarter of 1996,  the  Company  recognized  a  non-cash  impariment
      provision  of $147,948  for certain oil and gas  properties  due to market
      indications that the carrying amounts were not fully recoverable.

                                    I-4

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  decreased  from  $104,673  in 1995 to
$92,651  in 1996.  This  represents  a  decrease  of  $12,022  (11%).  Oil sales
decreased  by $15,733 or 17%. A 20% decrease in oil  production  caused sales to
decrease by $18,198.  This  decrease  was  partially  offset by a 3% increase in
average oil prices.  Gas sales  increased by $3,581 or 24%. A 3% increase in gas
production  increased  sales by $461.  A 20%  increase  in  average  gas  prices
increased  sales by an additional  $3,120.  The decrease in oil  production  was
primarily the result of the Company not  participating in a workover on the L.L.
Butler well in the Hightower  acquisition.  The increase in gas  production  was
primarily due to higher  production  from the RIC  acquisition  resulting from a
higher level of available compression.  The changes in average prices correspond
with changes in the overall market for the sale of oil and gas.

Lease operating  expenses increased from $45,096 in the first quarter of 1995 to
$53,454 in the first quarter of 1996.  The increase of $8,358 (19%) is primarily
due road repair expenses incurred on the Corkscrew acquisition in 1996.

Depreciation and depletion  expense  decreased from $31,483 in the first quarter
of 1995 to $13,893 in the first quarter of 1996.  This  represents a decrease of
$17,590 (56%). The changes in production,  noted above, reduced depreciation and
depletion  expense by $5,204.  A 47%  decrease  in the  depletion  rate  reduced
depreciation and depletion expense by an additional  $12,386.  The rate decrease
was primarily due to the lower property basis  resulting from the recognition of
an impairment of property for $147,948 in the first quarter of 1996.

The  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board has issued  Statement  of Financial
Accounting  Standard  ("SFAS")  No.  121,  "Accounting  for  the  Impairment  of
Long-Lived  Assets and for Long- Lived Assets to be Disposed Of," which requires
certain assets to be reviewed for impairment  whenever  events or  circumstances
indicate the carrying  amount may not be  recoverable.  In the first  quarter of
1996,  the Company  recognized a non-cash  impairment  provision of $147,948 for
certain  oil and gas  properties  due to market  indications  that the  carrying
amounts were not fully recoverable.

General and administrative  expenses decreased from $14,002 in the first quarter
of 1995 to $12,443 in the first quarter of 1996.  This decrease of $1,559 or 11%
was  primarily  due to less staff time being  required  to manage the  Company's
operations  in 1996,  partially  offset by a $3,620  increase  in the  amount of
direct expenses incurred by the Company.

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 1994 to 1995 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.

                                    I-5

<PAGE>




The Company  discontinued  the payment of  distributions in the third quarter of
1995. 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. The general partner does not intend
to  accelerate  the  repayment  of the debt  beyond  the cash flow  provided  by
operating activities. Based upon current projected cash flows from its property,
it does not  appear  that  the  Company  will  have  sufficient  cash to pay its
operating expenses, repay its debt obligations and pay distributions in the near
future.

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.
