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. Prior to this pronouncement, the
Company assessed properties on an aggregate basis. Upon adoption of
SFAS 121, the Company began assessing properties on an individual
basis, wherein total capitalized costs may not exceed the property's
fair market value. The fair market value of each property was
determined by H. J. Gruy and Associates, ("Gruy"). To determine the
fair market value, Gruy estimated each property's oil and gas
reserves, applied certain assumptions regarding price and cost
escalations, applied a 10% discount factor for time and certain
discount factors for risk, location, type of ownership interest,
category of reserves, operational characteristics, and other factors.
In the first quarter of 1996, the Company recognized a non-cash
impairment provision of $240,044 for certain oil and gas properties
due primarily to downward reserve revisions on the Lake Decade
acquisition and lower prices in the market for the sale of oil and
gas. The Lake Decade acquisition included significant reserves that
were considered "proved" but not yet developed. Due to depressed gas
prices and the unsuccessful efforts of wells drilled near the
acquisition, it was determined by the operator of the acquisition that
future drilling could not be justified. The well which was holding the
lease, which had undeveloped reserves assigned to it, was recompleted
by the operator in 1996 to a zone in which the Company did not own an
interest. As a result, the lease expired and the undeveloped reserves
associated with the lease had to be written off. This was the cause of
both the downward reserve revisions in 1996 and the reserve valuation
write downs taken by the Company in the first quarter of 1996.
3. On April 24, 1997, the Company's General Partner submitted preliminary
proxy material to the Securities Exchange Commission with respect to a
proposed liquidation of the Company.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.
Second Quarter 1997 Compared to Second Quarter 1996
Oil and gas sales for the second quarter decreased from $13,481 in 1996 to
$11,976 in 1997. This represents a decrease of $1,505 (11%). Oil sales increased
by $74 or 1%. A 16% increase in the average net oil sales price increased sales
by $1,089. This increase was partially offset by a 13% decrease in oil
production. Gas sales decreased by $1,579 or 27%. An 11% decrease in gas
production reduced sales by $652. An 18% decrease in the average net gas sales
price reduced sales by an additional $927. The decreases in oil and gas
production were primarily due to natural production declines. The increase in
average net oil sales price was primarily the result of lower expenses incurred
on the Company's net profit interests, including on the El Mac acquisition which
incurred workover charges in the second quarter of 1996. The decrease in average
net gas sales price was primarily the result of higher expenses incurred on the
Speary acquisition in the second quarter of 1997.
Depletion expense decreased from $12,209 in the second quarter of 1996 to $3,960
in the second quarter of 1997. This represents a decrease of $8,249 (68%). The
declines in production, noted above, reduced depletion expense by $1,459. A 63%
decrease in the depletion rate reduced depletion expense by an additional
$6,790. The decrease in the depletion rate was due to higher production from
properties with a relatively lower depletion rate.
General and administrative expenses decreased from $2,743 in 1996 to $2,461 in
1997. This decrease of $282 (10%) is primarily due to less staff time being
required to manage the Company's operations.
First Six Months in 1997 Compared to First Six Months in 1996
Oil and gas sales for the first six months decreased from $25,385 in 1996 to
$24,799 in 1997. This represents a decrease of $586 (2%). Oil sales decreased by
$1,249 or 12%. A 16% decrease in oil production reduced sales by $1,707. This
decrease was partially offset by a 5% increase in the average net oil sales
price. Gas sales decreased by $1,249 or 12%. A 4% decrease in gas production
reduced sales by $394. An 8% decrease in the average net gas sales price reduced
sales by an additional $855. The decreases in oil and gas production were
primarily due to natural production declines. The increase in average net oil
sales price was primarily the result of lower expenses incurred on the Company's
net profit interests, including on the El Mac acquisition which incurred
workover charges in the second quarter of 1996. The decrease in average net gas
sales price was primarily the result of higher expenses incurred on the Speary
acquisition in the second quarter of 1997.
Depletion expense decreased from $13,452 in the first six months of 1996 to
$7,626 in the first six months of 1997. This represents a decrease of $5,826
(43%). The changes in production, noted above, reduced depletion expense by
$1,174. A 38% decrease in the depletion rate reduced depletion
I-5
<PAGE>
expense by an additional $4,652. The decrease in the depletion rate was due to
higher production from properties with a relatively lower depletion rate.
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. Prior to this
pronouncement, the Company assessed properties on an aggregate basis. Upon
adoption of SFAS 121, the Company began assessing properties on an individual

property's oil and gas reserves, applied certain assumptions regarding price and
cost escalations, applied a 10% discount factor for time and certain discount
factors for risk, location, type of ownership interest, category of reserves,
operational characteristics, and other factors. In the first quarter of 1996,
the Company recognized a non-cash impairment provision of $240,044 for certain
oil and gas properties due primarily to downward reserve revisions on the Lake
Decade acquisition and lower prices in the market for the sale of oil and gas.
The Lake Decade acquisition included significant reserves that were considered
"proved" but not yet developed. Due to depressed gas prices and the unsuccessful
efforts of wells drilled near the acquisition, it was determined by the operator
of the acquisition that future drilling could not be justified. The well which
was holding the lease, which had undeveloped reserves assigned to it, was
recompleted by the operator in 1996 to a zone in which the Company did not own
an interest. As a result, the lease expired and the undeveloped reserves
associated with the lease had to be written off. This was the cause of both the
downward reserve revisions in 1996 and the reserve valuation write downs taken
by the Company in the first quarter of 1996.
General and administrative expenses decreased from $6,282 in 1996 to $5,148 in
1997. This decrease of $1,134 (18%) 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 1996 to 1997 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
payment of its debt obligations. Distribution amounts are subject to change if
net revenues are greater or less than expected. Based
I-6
<PAGE>
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.
On April 24, 1997, the Company's General Partner submitted preliminary proxy
material to the Securities Exchange Commission with respect to a proposed
liquidation of the Company.
