                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)



(1)  General Information -

                  The financial statements included herein have been prepared by
        the  Partnership  and are  unaudited  except  for the  balance  sheet at
        December  31,  1996  which has been  taken  from the  audited  financial
        statements at that date. The financial  statements reflect  adjustments,
        all of which  were of a  normal  recurring  nature,  which  are,  in the
        opinion  of  the  managing   general   partner   necessary  for  a  fair
        presentation.  Certain  information  and footnote  disclosures  normally
        included in financial  statements  prepared in accordance with generally
        accepted  accounting  principles have been omitted pursuant to the rules
        and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission  ("SEC").  The
        Partnership  believes adequate disclosure is provided by the information
        presented.  The financial  statements should be read in conjunction with
        the audited  financial  statements  and the notes included in the latest
        Form 10-K.

(2)  Gas Imbalances -

                  The  gas  imbalance   receivable  and  deferred  revenues  are
        accounted  for on  the  entitlements  method,  whereby  the  Partnership
        records its share of revenue,  based on its entitled amount. Any amounts
        over or under  the  entitled  amount  are  recorded  as an  increase  or
        decrease  to the  gas  imbalance  receivable  or  deferred  revenues  as
        applicable.

(3)  Vulnerability Due to Certain Concentrations -

                  The  Company's  revenues are  primarily the result of sales of
         its oil and natural gas  production.  Market  prices of oil and natural
         gas may fluctuate and adversely affect operating results.

                  The Partnership extends credit to various companies in the oil
         and gas industry which results in a concentration  of credit risk. This
         concentration  of credit risk may be affected by changes in economic or
         other conditions and may accordingly  impact the Partnership's  overall
         credit risk.  However,  the Managing  General Partner believes that the
         risk is mitigated by the size, reputation,  and nature of the companies
         to which the Partnership  extends credit. In addition,  the Partnership
         generally  does not  require  collateral  or other  security to support
         customer receivables.

(4)  Fair Value of Financial Instruments -

                  The Partnership's  financial  instruments  consist of cash and
         cash equivalents and short-term  receivables and payables. The carrying
         amounts  approximate  fair value due to the highly liquid nature of the
         short-term instruments.

                MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                       CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



GENERAL

      The  Partnership  was formed for the purpose of investing in producing oil
and gas properties  located within the  continental  United States.  In order to
accomplish  this,  the  Partnership  goes through two  distinct yet  overlapping
phases  with  respect  to its  liquidity  and  result  of  operations.  When the
Partnership  is formed,  it commences its  "acquisition"  phase,  with all funds
placed in short-term  investments until required for such property acquisitions.
The interest  earned on these  pre-acquisition  investments  becomes the primary
cash flow source for initial partner distributions.  As the Partnership acquires
producing   properties,   net  cash  from  operations   becomes   available  for
distribution,  along with the investment  income.  After  partnership funds have
been expended on producing oil and gas properties,  the  Partnership  enters its
"operations" phase. During this phase, oil and gas sales generate  substantially
all revenues,  and  distributions  to partners  reflect those  revenues less all
associated  partnership expenses.  The Partnership may also derive proceeds from
the sale of acquired oil and gas properties, when the sale of such properties is
economically appropriate or preferable to continued operation.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

      The  Partnership  has  completed  acquisition  of  producing  oil  and gas
properties,  expending all of the limited  partners'  commitments  available for
property acquisitions.

      The  Partnership  does  not  allow  for  additional  assessments  from the
partners  to fund  capital  requirements.  However,  funds  are  available  from
partnership  revenues,  borrowings  or  proceeds  from the  sale of  partnership
property.  The  Managing  General  Partners  believes  that the funds  currently
available to the partnership  will be adequate to meet any  anticipated  capital
requirements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

      The  following  analysis  explains  changes  in the  revenue  and  expense
categories  for the quarter ended June 30, 1997 (current  quarter) when compared
to the quarter  ended June 30,  1996  (corresponding  quarter),  and for the six
months ended June 30, 1997  (current  period),  when  compared to the six months
ended June 30, 1996 (corresponding period).

Three Months Ended June 30, 1997 and 1996

      Oil and gas sales declined  $99,029 or 38 percent in the second quarter of
1997 when  compared  to the  corresponding  quarter  in 1996,  primarily  due to
decreased gas and oil production.  A decline of 23 percent in gas production and
51  percent  in  oil  production   had  a  significant   impact  on  partnership
performance.  Also,  current  quarter gas prices declined 12 percent or $.25/MCF
when  compared  to second  quarter  1996 gas  prices,  further  contributing  to
decreased revenues.

      Associated depreciation expense decreased 18 percent or $14,619.

      The  Partnership   recorded  an  additional   provision  in  depreciation,
depletion and  amortization  in the second quarter of 1997 for $121,294 when the
present value,  discounted at ten percent, of estimated future net revenues from
oil and gas  properties,  using the  guidelines of the  Securities  and Exchange
Commission,  was below the fair  market  value  originally  paid for oil and gas
properties. The additional provision results from the Managing General Partner's
determination  that the fair  market  value paid for  properties  may or may not
coincide  with reserve  valuations  determined  according to  guidelines  of the
Securities and Exchange Commission.

                MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                 CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)


Six Months Ended June 30, 1997 and 1996

      Oil and gas sales decreased $258,072 or 38 percent in the first six months
of 1997 over the  corresponding  period in 1996.  A decline of 64 percent in oil
production and 27 percent in gas production were major  contributing  factors to
the  decreased  revenues for the period.  Increased  gas prices of 13 percent or
$.27/MCF partially offset the production declines.

      Associated depreciation expense declined 32 percent or $62,907.

      The  Partnership   recorded  an  additional   provision  in  depreciation,
depletion and amortization in the first six months of 1997 for $173,309 when the
present value,  discounted at ten percent, of estimated future net revenues from
oil and gas  properties,  using the  guidelines of the  Securities  and Exchange
Commission,  was below the fair  market  value  originally  paid for oil and gas
properties. The additional provision results from the Managing General Partner's
determination  that the fair  market  value paid for  properties  may or may not
coincide  with reserve  valuations  determined  according to  guidelines  of the
Securities and Exchange Commission.

      During 1997,  partnership  revenues  and costs will be shared  between the
limited partners and general partners in a 90:10 ratio.
