PART I
Item 1. Financial Statements
The unaudited Financial Statements of Atlas-Energy for the Nineties-Public
#4 Ltd. (the "Partnership") for the period January 1, 1996 to September 30,
1996.
Item 2. Description of Business
The Partnership has drilled and completed approximately 31.5 net wells to
the Clinton/Medina formation in Mercer and Venango Counties, Pennsylvania.
As of June 30, 1996, 31.5 net wells are in production. The first quarterly
distribution was on July 8, 1996 for natural gas production during February,
March and April, 1996. All wells are on line.
Net Production revenue was 738,056 which includes pumpers fees of $275.00 per
month per well Expenses for this period include $75.00 per month per well
for admininstrative costs.
For the next twelve months management believes that the Partnership has
adequate capital. No other wells will be drilled and, therefore, no
additional funds will be required.
Although management does not anticipate that the Partnership will have to
do so, any additional funds which may be required will be obtained from
production revenues from Partnership wells or from borrowings by the
Partnership from Atlas or its affiliates, although Atlas is not
contractually committed to make such a loan. No borrowings will be
obtained from third parties.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
ATLAS-ENERGY FOR THE NINETIES--PUBLIC #4 LTD.
A PENNSYLVANIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
September 30, 1996
1. INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The financial statements as of September 30, 1996 for the nine months then
ended have been prepared by the management of the Partnership without
audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included
in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to such rules and
regulations, although the Partnership believes that the disclosures are
adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the audited December 31, 1995
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for
presentation have been included.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Partnership uses the successful efforts method of accounting for oil
and gas activities. Costs to acquire mineral interests in oil and gas
properties, drill and equip wells and organizational and syndication costs
are capitalized. Oil and gas properties are periodically assessed and when
unamortized costs exceed expected future net cash flows, a loss is
recognized by a charge to income.
Capitalized costs of oil and gas wells, leases and organization and
syndication costs are depreciated, depleted and amortized by the unit of
production method.
