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 $258,758 for certain oil and gas properties primarily due to downward reserve revisions on the Lake Decade acquisition. The Lake Decade acquisition included significant reserves that were considered "proved" but not yet developed. Proved undeveloped reserves were assigned to these leases based on offset production in existing wells and on geologic mapping of the existing wells north of the producing wells. Enex and its affiliated entities owned less than 10% of this acquisition. The other working interest owners which held the remaining interest in the acquisition, including the operator of the field, also carried these reserves as "proved undeveloped" reserves prior to 1996. Wells drilled near the acquisition in an attempt to increase production from the field were dry holes. Revised geologic mapping, based on production from existing wells and the unsuccessful wells drilled offsetting the property, indicated a much smaller productive area than had been originally calculated. 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. I-4 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 increased from $8,767 in 1996 to $12,813 in 1997. This represents an increase of $4,046 (46%). Oil sales increased by $3,434 or 52%. A 31% increase in oil production increased sales by $2,031. A 16% increase in the average net oil sales price increased sales by an additional $1,403. Gas sales increased by $612 or 28%. A 5% increase in gas production increased sales by $121. A 21% increase in the average net gas sales price increased sales by an additional $491. The increases in oil and gas production were primarily due to successful workovers performed on the El Mac acquisition in 1996. The increases in average net prices were 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. Depletion expense decreased from $7,990 in the second quarter of 1996 to $3,473 in the second quarter of 1997. This represents a decrease of $4,517 (57%). A 63% decrease in the depletion rate reduced depletion expense by $5,978. This decrease was partially offset by the increases in production, noted above. The decrease in the depletion rate was primarily due to relatively higher production from the El Mac and Bagley acquisitions which have relatively lower depletion rates, partially offset by downward revisions of the oil and gas reserves during December 1996. General and administrative expenses decreased from $2,814 in 1996 to $2,692 in 1997. This decrease of $122 (4%) 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 increased from $19,887 in 1996 to $25,400 in 1997. This represents an increase of $5,513 (28%). Oil sales increased by $4,971 or 35%. A 6% increase in oil production increased sales by $921. A 27% increase in the average net oil sales price increased sales by an additional $4,050. Gas sales increased by $542 or 10%. A 14% increase in gas production increased sales by $764. This increase was partially offset by a 3% decrease in the average net gas sales price. The increases in oil and gas production were primarily due to successful workovers performed on the El Mac acquisition in 1996. 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 price was primarily due to relatively higher operating expenses on the Lake Decade acquisition from which the Company receives a net profits royalty. Depletion expense decreased from $9,362 in the first six months of 1996 to $7,143 in the first six months of 1997. This represents a decrease of $2,219 (24%). A 31% decrease in the depletion rate reduced depletion expense by $3,137. This decrease was partially offset by the increases in production, noted above. The decrease in the depletion rate was primarily due to relatively higher I-5 production from the El Mac and Bagley acquisitions which have relatively lower depletion rates, partially offset by downward revisions 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.

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 $6,451 in 1996 to $5,303 in 1997. This decrease of $1,148 (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 I-6 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 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. I-7 PART II.
