              (Name)               (Area Code)    (Telephone Number)

(2)  Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of

the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion

If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and
quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable
estimate of the results cannot be made.

Oil revenue for 2010 was approximately $ 2,368,000 compared to $1,485,000 for
2009, an increase of approximately $883,000 or 59%.  This was due in large part
to the increase in average oil prices from $57.39 per bbl in 2009 to $75.11 per
bbl in 2010; an increase of $17.72 per bbl or 31%.  In addition to the increase
in prices, oil sales increased from approximately 25,875 bbls in 2009 to
approximately 31,526 bbls in 2010, an increase of 5,651 bbls or 22%.

Gas revenue for 2010 was approximately $3,934,000 compared to $3,582,000 for
2009, an increase of approximately $352,000 or 10%.  Gas sales decreased from
approximately 866,000 mcf in 2009 to approximately 824,000 mcf in 2010, a
decrease of 42,000 mcf or 5%.  Gas prices increased 15% from $4.14 per mcf in
2009, to $4.77 per mcf in 2010.

Lease operating expenses are anticipated to increase to $1,901,000 in 2010 from
$1,640,000 in 2009 an increase of $261,000 or 16%.  Approximately $120,000 of
this increase comes from new wells in 2010 and another $52,000 comes from
increased work over costs. Expenses to plug non-economical wells increased by
$37,000 and finally, there was an increase in expenses from non-operated wells
of approximately $29,000.

Net income for 2010 is anticipated to be approximately $600,000 compared to
$39,000 in 2009.
