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  impairment
     provision  of $286,322  for certain  oil and gas  properties  due to market
     conditions  and reserve  revisions  on the Lake Decade  acquisition,  which
     indicated that the carrying amounts were not fully recoverable.

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 $6,533 in 1995 to $7,839
in 1995.  This  represents an increase of $1,306 (20%).  Oil sales  increased by
$321 or 7%. A 16%  increase in average net oil prices  increased  sales by $646.
This increase was partially offset by a 7% decrease in oil production. Gas sales
increased by $985 or 46%. A 117% increase in the average net gas price increased
sales by $1,674.  This  increase was  partially  offset by a 32% decrease in gas
production.  The  decrease  in oil  production  was  primarily  due  to  natural
production  declines.  The decrease in gas production was primarily due to a the
lack of  production  from a well in the  Lake  Decade  acquisition  which  began
producing water. The increase in average net oil prices  corresponds with higher
prices in the overall  market for the sale of oil.  The  increase in average net
gas price was primarily due to relatively lower operating  expenses on the Lake
Decade acquisition from which the Company receives a net profits royalty.

Depletion  expense  decreased from $6,277 in the first quarter of 1995 to $1,458
in the first quarter of 1996.  This represents a decrease of $4,819 (77%). A 71%
decrease in the depletion rate reduced depletion expense by $3,519.  The changes
in production, noted above, reduced depletion expense by an additional $1,300. 
The  decrease  in the  depletion  rate was  primarily  due to the lower property
basis resulting from the recognition of a $286,322 property impairment.

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 $286,322 for
certain oil and gas properties due to market conditions and reserve revisions on
the Lake Decade acquisition,  which indicated that the carrying amounts were not
fully recoverable.

General and  administrative  expenses increased from $3,039 in the first quarter
of 1995 to $4,016 in the first  quarter of 1996.  This increase of $977 (32%) is
primarily due to a $1,630 increase in direct expenses incurred by the Company in
1996, partially offset by 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.

                                    I-5

<PAGE>




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
payment of its debt obligations.  Distribution  amounts are subject to change if
net revenues  are greater or less than  expected.  Based upon current  projected
cash flows from the  properties,  it does not appear that the Company  will have
sufficient cash to pay its operating  expenses,  repay its debt  obligations and
pay distributions.
