NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. The interim financial information included herein is unaudited;
however, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely

interim periods.
2. A cash distribution was made to the limited partners of the Company in
the amount of $28,445, 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

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 decreased from $89,912 in 1996 to
$87,358 in 1997. This represents a decrease of $2,554 (3%). Oil sales decreased
$548 or 1%. A 14% decline in oil production reduced sales by $10,454. This
decrease was partially offset by a 15% increase in the average oil sales price.
Gas sales decreased by $2,006 or 15%. A 38% decline in gas production reduced
sales by $5,053. This decrease was partially offset by a 37% increase in the
average gas sales price. The decrease in oil production was primarily the result
of natural production declines. The decrease in gas production was primarily the
result of the shut-in of production from the Concord acquisition to perform
workovers in the first quarter of 1997. The changes in average prices correspond
with changes in the overall market for the sale of oil and gas.
Lease operating expenses increased from $18,420 in the first quarter of 1996 to
$26,262 in the first quarter of 1997. The increase of $7,842 (43%) is primarily
due to workover costs incurred on the Concord acquisition in 1997.
Depreciation and depletion expense decreased from $25,500 in the first quarter
of 1996 to $18,324 in the first quarter of 1997. This represents a decrease of
$7,176 (28%). An 11% decrease in the depletion rate reduced depreciation and
depletion expense by $2,368. The changes in production, noted above, reduced
depreciation and depletion expense by an additional $4,808. The decrease in the
depletion rate was primarily the result of upward revisions of the oil and gas
reserves during December 1996.
General and administrative expenses decreased from $10,506 in 1996 to $6,726 in
1997. This decrease of $3,780 (36%) is primarily due to less staff time being
required to manage the Company's operations.
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.
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 provided by operating, financing
and investing activities.
I-6
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
the payment of its debt obligations. 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.
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.
