ITEM 5:   OTHER EVENTS
     On   November  23   and   25,  1994,   Geodyne  Resources,   Inc.
("Resources"), PaineWebber  Incorporated ("PaineWebber"),  and certain
other  parties  were  named  as  defendants  in  two related  lawsuits
alleging  misrepresentations  made   to  induce  investments   in  the
Registrants (the  "Partnerships") and  asserting causes of  action for
common  law  fraud  and  deceit   and  unjust  enrichment  (Romine  v.
PaineWebber,  Inc. et al,  Case No. 94-CIV-8558,  U.S. District Court,
Southern District of New York and Romine v. PaineWebber,  Inc., et al,
Case No. 94-132844, Supreme Court of  the State of New York, County of
New York).  The federal  court case was later consolidated  with other
similar actions (to which Resources is not a party) under the title In
Re: PaineWebber Limited Partnerships Litigation and was certified as a
class action  on  May 30,  1995  (the "PaineWebber  Partnership  Class
Action").  A  class action notice was  mailed on June  7, 1995 to  all
members of the  class.  The PaineWebber Partnership  Class Action also
alleges  violations of 18  U.S.C. Section  1962(c) and  the Securities
Exchange Act of  1934.  Compensatory  and punitive damages,  interest,
and costs have been requested in both matters.  PaineWebber has agreed
to  indemnify Resources  with respect  to all  claims asserted  by the
plaintiff  in the  lawsuits pursuant  to that  certain Indemnification
Agreement  dated November  24,  1992 by  and  between PaineWebber  and
Samson   Investment   Company,   the    parent   of   Resources   (the
"Indemnification   Agreement").     The   amended  complaint   in  the
PaineWebber  Partnership  Class Action  no  longer  asserts any  claim
directly  against  Resources.    As a  result  of  the Indemnification
Agreement,  Resources does not believe that it will be required to pay
any damages or expenses in this matter.

     On  January   18,  1996,  PaineWebber  issued   a  press  release
indicating  that it  had reached  an agreement  to settle  the pending
PaineWebber Partnership  Class Action matter, along  with a settlement
with  the  Securities and  Exchange  Commission  (the  "SEC")  and  an
agreement to  settle with  various state  securities regulators.   The
press  release issued  by PaineWebber,  a copy  of which  is filed  as
Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K, indicates that  the parties have agreed
to  a class  action  settlement  of $125  million  and other  non-cash
consideration;  a  SEC  administrative  order creating  a  capped  $40
million fund;  a civil penalty of  $5 million leveled by  the SEC; and
payments  aggregating $5  million to state  securities administrators.
The dollar  amounts referred to in the press release apply to both the
Partnerships and other direct investment programs sold by PaineWebber.
As  of  the date  of  this  Form  8-K, PaineWebber  has  not  informed
management of the Partnerships of  the portion of such settlement that
would  be applicable  to the Partnerships.   Details  of PaineWebber's
settlement, as applicable to the Partnerships, will be supplemented in
future filings made by the Partnerships with the SEC.
