Glossary of Oil and Gas Terms
The following are abbreviations and definitions of terms commonly used in
the oil and gas industry that are used in this filing. All volumes of
natural gas referred to herein are stated at the legal pressure base to the
state or area where the reserves exit and at 60 degrees Fahrenheit and in
most instances are rounded to the nearest major multiple.
Bbl. One stock tank barrel, or 42 United States gallons liquid volume.
Developmental well. A well drilled within the proved area of an oil or
natural gas reservoir to the depth of a stratigraphic horizon known to be
productive.
Exploratory well. A well drilled to find and produce oil or gas in an
unproved area to find a new reservoir in a field previously found to be
productive of oil or natural gas in another reservoir or to extend a known
reservoir.
Farm-out arrangement. An agreement whereby the owner of the leasehold
or working interest agrees to assign his interest in certain specific
acreage to the assignee, retaining some interest, such as an overriding
royalty interest, subject to the drilling of one (1) or more wells or other
performance by the assignee.
Field. An area consisting of a single reservoir or multiple reservoirs
all grouped on or related to the same individual geological structural
feature and/or stratigraphic condition.

PART I. - FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 1. Financial Statements
The unaudited condensed financial statements included herein have been
prepared by the Registrant (herein also referred to as the "Partnership")
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01
of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information
and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for
complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been included and are of
a normal recurring nature. The financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto for
the year ended December 31, 2002, which are found in the Registrant's
Amendment No. 1 to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2002 filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on November 12, 2003. The December 31,
2002 balance sheet included herein has been derived from the Registrant's
Amendment No. 1 to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2002. Operating
results for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2003 are
not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.
Introductory Note - Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 143
The Partnership implemented SFAS No. 143 effective January 1, 2003 (See
Note 3) to the Partnership's financial statements.
Introductory Note - Depletion Method
During the fourth quarter of 2002, the Partnership changed its method of
providing for depletion from the units-of-revenue method to the units-of-
production method as described in Notes 4 and 6 to the Partnership's
financial statements.
This change in depletion method was applied as a cumulative effect of a
change in accounting principle effective as of January 1, 2002. The
unaudited condensed financial statements of the Partnership for the periods
ended September 30, 2002, included herein, have been restated (as described
in Notes 4 and 6 to the Partnership's financial statements) using the new
depletion method and differ from those previously issued in the
Partnership's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the periods ended September
30, 2002.

Notes to Financial Statements
1. Organization
Southwest Oil & Gas Income Fund X-C, L.P. was organized under the laws
of the state of Delaware on September 20, 1991, for the purpose of
acquiring producing oil and gas properties and to produce and market
crude oil and natural gas produced from such properties for a term of
50 years, unless terminated at an earlier date as provided for in the
Partnership Agreement. The Partnership sells its oil and gas
production to several purchasers with the prices it receives being
dependent upon the oil and gas economy. Southwest Royalties, Inc.
serves as the Managing General Partner and H. H. Wommack, III, as the
individual general partner. Revenues, costs and expenses are
allocated as follows:

(1) All organization costs in excess of 3% of initial capital
contributions will be paid by the Managing General Partner and
will be treated as a capital contribution. The Partnership paid
the Managing General Partner an amount equal to 3% of initial
capital contributions for such organization costs.
(2) Administrative costs in any year which exceed 2% of capital
contributions shall be paid by the Managing General Partner and
will be treated as a capital contribution.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The interim financial information as of September 30, 2003, and for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003, is unaudited.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted in this Form 10-Q
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. However, in the opinion of management, these interim
financial statements include all the necessary adjustments to fairly
present the results of the interim periods and all such adjustments
are of a normal recurring nature. The interim consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the Partnership's
Amendment No. 1 to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2002, filed with SEC on November 12, 2003.

(a Delaware limited partnership)
Notes to Financial Statements
3. Cumulative effect of change in accounting principle - SFAS No. 143
On January 1, 2003, the Partnership adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement
Obligations ("SFAS No. 143"). Adoption of SFAS No. 143 is required
for all companies with fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002.
The new standard requires the Partnership to recognize a liability for
the present value of all legal obligations associated with the
retirement of tangible long-lived assets and to capitalize an equal
amount as a cost of the asset and depreciate the additional cost over
the estimated useful life of the asset. On January 1, 2003, the
Partnership recorded additional costs, net of accumulated
depreciation, of approximately $227,654, a long term liability of
approximately $797,872 and a loss of approximately $570,218 for the
cumulative effect on depreciation of the additional costs and
accretion expense on the liability related to expected abandonment
costs of its oil and natural gas producing properties. At September
30, 2003, the asset retirement obligation was $798,138. The increase
in the balance from January 1, 2003 is due to accretion expense of
46,694, partially offset by the sale and plug and abandonment of oil
and gas properties, which decreased the asset retirement obligation by
$46,428. The pro forma amounts for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2002, which are presented on the face of the statements
of operations, reflect the effect of retroactive application of SFAS
No. 143.
4. Cumulative effect of change in accounting principle - change in
depletion method
In the fourth quarter of 2002, the Partnership changed methods of
accounting for depletion of capitalized costs from the units-of-
revenue method to the units-of-production method. The newly adopted
accounting principle is preferable in the circumstances because the
units-of-production method results in a better matching of the costs
of oil and gas production against the related revenue received in
periods of volatile prices for production as have been experienced in
recent periods. Additionally, the units-of-production method is the
predominant method used by full cost companies in the oil and gas
industry, accordingly, the change improves the comparability of the
Partnership's financial statements with its peer group. The
Partnership adopted the units-of-production method through the
recording of a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle
in the amount of $128,000 effective as of January 1, 2002. The
Partnership's depletion for the three and nine months ended September
30, 2003 and 2002 has been calculated using the units-of-production
method. The effect of the change on the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2002 was to decrease income before cumulative effect of
a change in accounting principle by $4,000 and $19,000 ($.64 and $3.04
per limited partner unit), respectively and decrease and increase net
income by $4,000 and $109,000 ($.64 and $17.45 per limited partner
unit), respectively.
5. Discontinued Operations - Sale of oil and gas leases
During the nine months ended September 30, 2003, the Partnership sold
its interest in certain oil and gas wells for $105,400 sales proceeds
and retired $14,267 of asset retirement obligation associated with the
properties. Since the Partnership is under the full cost pool method
of accounting, the sales proceeds and asset retirement obligation
liability were taken against the oil and gas properties asset account
and therefore, no gain or loss was recorded and shown on the statement
of operations as part of the discontinued operations. Pursuant to the
requirements of SFAS No. 144, the historical operating results from
these properties have been reported as discontinued operations in the
accompanying statements of operations. The following table summarizes
certain historical operating information related to the discontinued
operations:

Notes to Financial Statements
6. September 30, 2002 Restatement
During the fourth quarter of 2002, the Partnership changed its method
of providing for depletion from the units-of-revenue method to the
units-of-production method as described in Note 4.
This change in the method used to implement the Partnership's change
in the manner in which it determines depletion resulted in an increase
in the Partnership's previously reported net oil and gas properties of
$106,000 from $182,080 to $288,080 as of December 31, 2002 and did not
effect the Partnership's 2002 cash flows from operations, investing or
financing activities.
The change had the following effects on the Statement of Operations
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
General
Southwest Oil & Gas Income Fund X-C, L.P. was organized as a Delaware
limited partnership on September 20, 1991. The offering of such limited
partnership interests began October 1, 1991 as part of a shelf offering
registered under the name Southwest Oil & Gas 1990-91 Income Program.
Minimum capital requirements for the Partnership were met on January 13,
1992 and the offering concluded on April 30, 1992 with total limited
partner contributions of $3,123,000.
The Partnership was formed to acquire interests in producing oil and gas
properties, to produce and market crude oil and natural gas produced from
such properties, and to distribute the net proceeds from operations to the
limited and general partners. Net revenues from producing oil and gas
properties will not be reinvested in other revenue producing assets except
to the extent that production facilities and wells are improved or reworked
or where methods are employed to improve or enable more efficient recovery
of oil and gas reserves.
Increases or decreases in Partnership revenues and, therefore,
distributions to partners will depend primarily on changes in the prices
received for production, changes in volumes of production sold, lease
operating expenses, enhanced recovery projects, offset drilling activities
pursuant to farmout arrangements, sales of properties, and the depletion of
wells. Since wells deplete over time, production can generally be expected
to decline from year to year.
Well operating costs and general and administrative costs usually decrease
with production declines; however, these costs may not decrease
proportionately. Net income available for distribution to the partners is
therefore expected to fluctuate in later years based on these factors.
Based on current conditions, management anticipates performing no workovers
during 2003 or 2004 to enhance production. The Partnership will most
likely experience the historical production decline, which has approximated
10% per year.
Oil and Gas Properties
Oil and gas properties are accounted for at cost under the full-cost
method. Under this method, all productive and nonproductive costs incurred
in connection with the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and
gas reserves are capitalized. Gain or loss on the sale of oil and gas
properties is not recognized unless significant oil and gas reserves are
involved.
In the fourth quarter of 2002, the Partnership changed methods of
accounting for depletion of capitalized costs from the units-of-revenue
method to the units-of-production method. The newly adopted accounting
principle is preferable in the circumstances because the units-of-
production method results in a better matching of the costs of oil and gas
production against the related revenue received in periods of volatile
prices for production as have been experienced in recent periods.
Additionally, the units-of-production method is the predominant method used
by full cost companies in the oil and gas industry, accordingly, the change
improves the comparability of the Partnership's financial statements with
its peer group.
Should the net capitalized costs exceed the estimated present value of oil
and gas reserves, discounted at 10%, such excess costs would be charged to
current expense. As of September 30, 2003, the net capitalized costs did
not exceed the estimated present value of oil and gas reserves.
Critical Accounting Policies
Full cost ceiling calculations The Partnership follows the full cost method
of accounting for its oil and gas properties. The full cost method
subjects companies to quarterly calculations of a "ceiling", or limitation
on the amount of properties that can be capitalized on the balance sheet.
If the Partnership's capitalized costs are in excess of the calculated
ceiling, the excess must be written off as an expense.
The Partnership's discounted present value of its proved oil and natural
gas reserves is a major component of the ceiling calculation, and
represents the component that requires the most subjective judgments.
Estimates of reserves are forecasts based on engineering data, projected
future rates of production and the timing of future expenditures. The
process of estimating oil and natural gas reserves requires substantial
judgment, resulting in imprecise determinations, particularly for new
discoveries. Different reserve engineers may make different estimates of
reserve quantities based on the same data. The Partnership's reserve
estimates are prepared by outside consultants.
The passage of time provides more qualitative information regarding
estimates of reserves, and revisions are made to prior estimates to reflect
updated information. However, there can be no assurance that more
significant revisions will not be necessary in the future. If future
significant revisions are necessary that reduce previously estimated
reserve quantities, it could result in a full cost property writedown. In
addition to the impact of these estimates of proved reserves on calculation
of the ceiling, estimates of proved reserves are also a significant
component of the calculation of DD&A.
While estimating the quantities of proved reserves require substantial
judgment, the associated prices of oil and natural gas reserves that are
included in the discounted present value of the reserves do not require
judgment. The ceiling calculation dictates that prices and costs in effect
as of the last day of the period are generally held constant indefinitely.
Because the ceiling calculation dictates that prices in effect as of the
last day of the applicable quarter are held constant indefinitely, the
resulting value may not be indicative of the true fair value of the
reserves. Oil and natural gas prices have historically been cyclical and,
on any particular day at the end of a quarter, can be either substantially
higher or lower than the Partnership's long-term price forecast that is a
barometer for true fair value.
In the fourth quarter of 2002, the Partnership changed methods of
accounting for depletion of capitalized costs from the units-of-revenue
method to the units-of-production method. The newly adopted accounting
principle is preferable in the circumstances because the units-of-
production method results in a better matching of the costs of oil and gas
production against the related revenue received in periods of volatile
prices for production as have been experienced in recent periods.
Additionally, the units-of-production method is the predominant method used
by full cost companies in the oil and gas industry, accordingly, the change
improves the comparability of the Partnership's financial statements with
its peer group.

Revenues
The Partnership's oil and gas revenues increased to $183,121 from $178,601
for the quarters ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, an
increase of 3%. The principal factors affecting the comparison of the
quarters ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 are as follows:
1. The average price for a barrel of oil received by the Partnership
increased during the quarter ended September 30, 2003 as compared to
the quarter ended September 30, 2002 by 5%, or $1.31 per barrel,
resulting in an increase of approximately $8,600 in revenues. Oil
sales represented 91% of total oil and gas sales during the quarter
ended September 30, 2003 as compared to 86% during the quarter ended
September 30, 2002.
The average price for an mcf of gas received by the Partnership
increased during the same period by 16%, or $.48 per mcf, resulting in
an increase of approximately $2,300 in revenues.
The total increase in revenues due to the change in prices received
from oil and gas production is approximately $10,900. The market price
for oil and gas has been extremely volatile over the past decade and
management expects a certain amount of volatility to continue in the
foreseeable future.
2. Oil production decreased approximately 200 barrels or 3% during the
quarter ended September 30, 2003 as compared to the quarter ended
September 30, 2002, resulting in a decrease of approximately $5,000 in
revenues.
Gas production decreased approximately 4,700 mcf or 50% during the same
period, resulting in a decrease of approximately $14,100 in revenues.
The total decrease in revenues due to the change in production is
approximately $19,100. The decrease in gas production is due primarily
to the sale of a gas lease in April 2003, which represented
approximately 1,000 mcfs per month during the quarter ended September
30, 2002. In addition another lease has experienced downtime during
2002 and has not recovered production to prior levels.
Costs and Expenses
Total costs and expenses increased to $195,398 from $164,066 for the
quarters ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, an increase of
19%. The increase is the result of higher general and administrative
expense, lease operating costs and accretion expense, partially offset by a
decrease in depletion expense.
1. Lease operating costs and production taxes were 12% higher, or
approximately $16,400 more during the quarter ended September 30, 2003 as
compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2002.
2. General and administrative costs consist of independent accounting and
engineering fees, computer services, postage, and Managing General
Partner personnel costs. General and administrative costs increased 8%
or approximately $900 during the quarter ended September 30, 2003 as
compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2002. The increase in
general and administrative expense is due to an increase in independent
accounting review and audit fees.
3. Depletion expense decreased to $12,000 for the quarter ended September
30, 2003 from $13,000 for the same period in 2002. This represents a
decrease of 8%. In the fourth quarter of 2002, the Partnership changed
methods of accounting for depletion of capitalized costs from the units-
of-revenue method to the units-of-production method. The newly adopted
accounting principle is preferable in the circumstances because the
units-of-production method results in a better matching of the costs of
oil and gas production against the related revenue received in periods
of volatile prices for production as have been experienced in recent
periods. Additionally, the units-of-production method is the
predominant method used by full cost companies in the oil and gas
industry, accordingly, the change improves the comparability of the
Partnership's financial statements with its peer group. The effect of
this change in method was to increase depletion expense for the three
months ended September 30, 2002 by $4,000 and decrease net income for
the three months ended September 30, 2002 by $4,000(See Note 4 of the
notes to the financial statements).

Revenues
The Partnership's oil and gas revenues increased to $576,711 from $452,319
for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, an
increase of 28%. The principal factors affecting the comparison of the
nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 are as follows:
1. The average price for a barrel of oil received by the Partnership
increased during the nine months ended September 30, 2003 as compared
to the nine months ended September 30, 2002 by 29%, or $6.14 per
barrel, resulting in an increase of approximately $122,800 in revenues.
Oil sales represented 86% of total oil and gas sales during the nine
months ended September 30, 2003 as compared to 85% during the nine
months ended September 30, 2002.
The average price for an mcf of gas received by the Partnership
increased during the same period by 84%, or $2.07 per mcf, resulting in
a increase of approximately $40,000 in revenues.
The total increase in revenues due to the change in prices received
from oil and gas production is approximately $162,800. The market
price for oil and gas has been extremely volatile over the past decade
and management expects a certain amount of volatility to continue in
the foreseeable future.
2. Oil production decreased approximately 300 barrels or 1% during the
nine months ended September 30, 2003 as compared to the nine months
ended September 30, 2002, resulting in a decrease of approximately
$6,400 in revenues.
Gas production decreased approximately 10,700 mcf or 36% during the
same period, resulting in a decrease of approximately $26,400 in
revenues.
The total decrease in revenues due to the change in production is
approximately $32,800. The decrease in gas production is due primarily
to the sale of a gas lease in April 2003, which represented
approximately 1,400 mcf per month.
Costs and Expenses
Total costs and expenses increased to $600,397 from $499,089 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, an increase of 20%.
The increase is the result of higher lease operating costs, general and
administrative expense and accretion expense, partially offset by a
decrease in depletion expense.
1. Lease operating costs and production taxes were 13% higher, or
approximately $52,800 more during the nine months ended September 30,
2003 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2002.
2. General and administrative costs consist of independent accounting and
engineering fees, computer services, postage, and Managing General
Partner personnel costs. General and administrative costs increased
25% or approximately $7,800 during the nine months ended September 30,
2003 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The
increase in general and administrative expense is due to an increase in
independent accounting review and audit fees.
3. Depletion expense decreased to $42,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2003 from $48,000 for the same period in 2002. This
represents a decrease of 13%. In the fourth quarter of 2002, the
Partnership changed methods of accounting for depletion of capitalized
costs from the units-of-revenue method to the units-of-production
method. The newly adopted accounting principle is preferable in the
circumstances because the units-of-production method results in a
better matching of the costs of oil and gas production against the
related revenue received in periods of volatile prices for production
as have been experienced in recent periods. Additionally, the units-of-
production method is the predominant method used by full cost companies
in the oil and gas industry, accordingly, the change improves the
comparability of the Partnership's financial statements with its peer
group. The effect of this change in method was to increase depletion
expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 by $19,000 and
increase net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 by
$109,000(See Note 4 of the notes to the financial statements).
Cumulative effect of change in accounting principle
On January 1, 2003, the Partnership adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations
("SFAS No. 143"). Adoption of SFAS No. 143 is required for all companies
with fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. The new standard requires
the Partnership to recognize a liability for the present value of all legal
obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets
and to capitalize an equal amount as a cost of the asset and depreciate the
additional cost over the estimated useful life of the asset. On January 1,
2003, the Partnership recorded additional costs, net of accumulated
depreciation, of approximately $227,654, a long term liability of
approximately $797,872 and a loss of approximately $570,218 for the
cumulative effect on depreciation of the additional costs and accretion
expense on the liability related to expected abandonment costs of its oil
and natural gas producing properties. At September 30, 2003, the asset
retirement obligation was $798,138. The increase in the balance from
January 1, 2003 is due to accretion expense of 466,694, partially offset by
the sale and plug and abandonment of oil and gas properties, which
decreased the asset retirement obligation by $46,428. The pro forma
amounts for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002, which are
presented on the face of the statements of operations, reflect the effect
of retroactive application of SFAS No. 143.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The primary source of cash is from operations, the receipt of income from
interests in oil and gas properties. The Partnership knows of no material
change, nor does it anticipate any such change.
Cash flows provided by operating activities were approximately $157,000 in
the nine months ended September 30, 2003 as compared to approximately
$11,800 in the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The primary source of
the 2003 cash flow from operating activities was oil and gas operations.
Cash flows provided by (used in) investing activities were approximately
$92,500 in the nine months ended September 30, 2003 as compared to
approximately $(21,100) in the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The
principle source of the 2003 cash flow from investing activities was the
sale of oil and gas properties.
Cash flows used in financing activities were approximately $176,600 in the
nine months ended September 30, 2003. There were no cash flows used in
financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The
only use in financing activities was the distributions to partners.
Total distributions during the nine months ended September 30, 2003 were
$176,436 of which $158,936 was distributed to the limited partners and
$17,500 to the general partners. The per unit distribution to limited
partners during the nine months ended September 30, 2003 was $25.45. There
were no distributions during the nine months ended September 30, 2002.
The sources for the 2003 distributions of $176,436 was oil and gas
operations of approximately $157,000, the change in oil and gas property of
approximately $92,500, resulting in excess cash for contingencies or
subsequent distributions.
Since inception of the Partnership, cumulative cash distributions of
$3,870,642 have been made to the partners. As of September 30, 2003,
$3,502,550 or $560.77 per limited partner unit has been distributed to the
limited partners, representing a 100% return of the capital and a 12%
return on capital contributed.
As of September 30, 2003, the Partnership had approximately $127,000 in
working capital. The Managing General Partner knows of no unusual
contractual commitments. Although the partnership held many long-lived
properties at inception, because of the restrictions on property
development imposed by the partnership agreement, the Partnership cannot
develop its non-producing properties, if any. Without continued
development, the producing reserves continue to deplete. Accordingly, as
the Partnership's properties have matured and depleted, the net cash flows
from operations for the partnership has steadily declined, except in
periods of substantially increased commodity pricing. Maintenance of
properties and administrative expenses for the Partnership are increasing
relative to production. As the properties continue to deplete, maintenance
of properties and administrative costs as a percentage of production are
expected to continue to increase.
The Managing General Partner has examined various alternatives to address
the issue of depleting producing reserves. Continuing operations exposes
the partnership to an inevitable decline in operating results and
distributions of cash. Liquidating the partnership would result in
immediate realization of cash for limited partners, but prices paid by
purchasers of Partnership property in liquidation would likely include a
substantial discount for risks and uncertainties of future cash flows.
After reviewing various alternatives, the Managing General Partner
initiated a plan to merge the Partnership and 20 other limited partnerships
with and into the Managing General Partner. On October 17, 2002, the
Managing General Partner filed a Registration Statement on Form S-4 with
the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to this proposed merger.
There is no assurance, however, that this merger will be consummated.
Currently the Managing General Partner is evaluating whether or not to
continue to pursue the proposed merger.
Liquidity - Managing General Partner
In previous reports the Partnership provided that the Managing General
Partner had $124.0 million of principal scheduled to mature between
December 31, 2002 and December 31, 2004. Subsequent to September 30, 2003
the Managing General Partner refinanced the majority of its debt
obligations and currently has $71.7 million in debt scheduled to mature on
June 1, 2006 and $40.0 million in debt scheduled to mature on October 15,
2008. The Managing General Partner believes that it has adequate cash
flows to meet its debt principal maturities scheduled for 2004.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The FASB has issued Statement No. 143 "Accounting for Asset Retirement
Obligations" which establishes requirements for the accounting of removal-
type costs associated with asset retirements. The standard is effective
for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002, with earlier application
encouraged. This statement has been adopted by the Partnership effective
January 1, 2003. The transition adjustment resulting from the adoption of
SFAS No. 143 has been reported as a cumulative effect of a change in
accounting principle.
In April 2003, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 149, Amendment of Statement No. 133 on Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities ("SFAS No. 149"). SFAS No. 149 amendments require that
contracts with comparable characteristics be accounted for similarly,
clarifies when a contract with an initial investment meets the
characteristic of a derivative and clarifies when a derivative requires
special reporting in the statement of cash flows. SFAS No. 149 is
effective for hedging relationships designated and for contracts entered
into or modified after June 30, 2003, except for provisions that relate to
SFAS No. 133 Statement Implementation Issues that have been effective for
fiscal quarters prior to June 15, 2003, should be applied in accordance
with their respective effective dates and certain provisions
relating to
forward purchases or sales of when-issued securities or other securities
that do not yet exist, should be applied to existing contracts as well as
new contracts entered into after June 30, 2003. Assessment by the Managing
General Partner revealed this pronouncement to have
no impact on the
Partnership.
In May 2003, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No.150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics
of both Liabilities and Equity ("SFAS 150"). SFAS 150
establishes
standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial
instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It
requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within the
scope of SFAS 150 as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). Many
of those instruments were previously classified as equity. The application
of SFAS 150 is not expected to have a material effect on the Partnership's
consolidated financial statements. This Statement is effective for
financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and
otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period
beginning after June 15, 2003.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Partnership is not a party to any derivative or embedded derivative
instruments.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The senior
management of the Partnership's Managing General Partner is responsible for
establishing and maintaining a system of disclosure controls and procedures
(as defined in Rule 13a-14 and 15d-14 under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (the "Exchange Act")) designed to ensure that information required to
be disclosed by the Partnership in the reports that it files or submits
under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported,
within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange
Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include,
without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that
information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it
files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to
the issuer's management, including its principal executive officer of
officers and principal financial officer or officers, or person performing
similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding
required disclosure.
In accordance with Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15, the Partnership
carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Managing General Partner, as
well as other key members of the Managing General Partner's management, of
the effectiveness of the Partnership's disclosure controls and procedures
as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that
evaluation, the Managing General Partner's Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Partnership's disclosure
controls and procedures were effective, as of the end of the period covered
by this report, to provide reasonable assurance that information required
to be disclosed in the Partnership's reports filed or submitted under the
Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the
time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules
and forms.
(b) Changes in Internal Controls. There have not been any changes in the
Partnership's internal controls over financial reporting identified in
connection with the evaluation described above that occurred during the
Partnership's last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is
reasonably likely to materially affect, these internal controls over
financial reporting.
