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 $9,521, representing net revenues from the sale of oil
and gas produced from properties owned by the Company. This
distribution was made on January 31, 1997.
3. On April 7, 1997, the Company's General Partner mailed proxy material
to the limited partners with respect to a proposed consolidation of the
Company with 33 other managed limited partnerships. The terms and
conditions of the proposed consolidation are set forth in such proxy
material.
4. 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 $243,005 for certain
oil and gas properties due to market changes in the overall market for the
sale of oil and gas and significant decreases in the projected production
from the Lake Decade acquisition, which indicated that the carrying amounts
were not fully recoverable.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.
First Quarter 1997 Compared to First Quarter 1996
Oil and gas sales for the first quarter increased from $28,405 in 1996 to
$32,170 in 1997. This represents an increase of $3,765 (13%). Oil sales
increased by $2,373 or 11%. A 14% increase in average oil sales prices increased
sales by $2,990. This increase was partially offset by a 3% decrease in oil
production. Gas sales increased by $1,392 or 19%. A 10% increase in gas
production increased sales by $750. An 8% increase in average gas sales prices
increased sales by an additional $642. The lower oil production is a primarily a
result of natural production declines. The increase in gas production was
primarily due to higher production from the El Mac acquisition which had an
acidization treatment in the third quarter of 1996. The increases in average
prices correspond with higher prices in the overall market for the sale of oil
and gas.
Lease operating expenses increased from $5,293 in the first quarter of 1996 to
$6,851 in the first quarter of 1997. The increase of $1,558 (29%) is primarily
due to the changes in production, noted above.
Depreciation and depletion expense decreased from $7,428 in the first quarter of
1996 to $5,432 in the first quarter of 1997. This represents a decrease of
$1,996 (27%). A 28% decrease in the depletion rate reduced depreciation and
depletion expense by $2,074. This decrease was partially offset by the changes
in production, noted above. The rate decrease was primarily due to an upward
revision of the oil and gas reserves during December 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. 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 $243,005 for certain
oil and gas properties due to market changes in the overall market for the sale
of oil and gas and significant decreases in the projected production from the
Lake Decade acquisition, which indicated that the carrying amounts were not
fully recoverable.
General and administrative expenses decreased from $5,980 in the first quarter
of 1996 to $3,939 in the first quarter of 1997. This decrease of $2,041 (34%) 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's "available cash flow" is essentially equal to
the net amount of cash provided by operating, financing and investing
activities.
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.
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.
On April 7, 1997, the Company's General Partner mailed proxy material to the
limited partners with respect to a proposed consolidation of the Company with 33
other managed limited partnerships. The terms and conditions of the proposed
consolidation are set forth in such proxy material.
As of March 31, 1997, the Company had no material commitments for capital
expenditures. The Company does not intend to engage in any significant
developmental drilling activity.
