IMPLICATIONS OF BEING AN EMERGING GROWTH COMPANY.

The Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the “JOBS Act”) became law in April 2012. The Partnership is an “emerging growth Company” as defined in the JOBS Act, and it is eligible for certain exemptions from, or reduced disclosure obligations relating to, various reporting requirements that usually apply to public companies.

These exemptions include, among others, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, any requirements adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”) which require mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report in which the auditor must provide additional information about the audit and the issuer’s financial statements, nor with new audit rules adopted by the PCAOB after April 5, 2012, unless the SEC determines otherwise. The Partnership has not yet decided whether to use any or all of the exemptions.

Additionally, under Section 107 of the JOBS Act, an “emerging growth company” is eligible for the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”) to comply with new or revised accounting standards. This means an “emerging growth company” can delay adopting certain accounting standards until those standards otherwise become applicable to private companies. However, the Partnership is electing to “opt out” of that extended transition period, and therefore will comply with new or revised accounting standards on the dates the standards are required for non-emerging growth companies. Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that the Partnership’s decision to opt out of the extended transition period for compliance with new or revised accounting standards is irrevocable.

The Partnership could continue to be an “emerging growth company” until the earliest of:

(iv)

the last day of the first fiscal year in which it has total annual gross revenue of $1 billion or more;

(ii)

the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of its units pursuant to its prospectus and Registration Statement with the SEC;

(iii)

the date that it becomes a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), which would occur if the market value of its units held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million, measured as of the last business day of its most recently completed second fiscal quarter; or

(iv)

the date on which it has, during the preceding three year period, issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt.

The Partnership anticipates that it will continue to be an emerging growth company until the termination of the five year period described in (ii), above.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2016

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS

On May 3, 2012 (date of inception), MDS Energy Public 2013-A LP (Partnership), a Delaware limited partnership, was formed for the purpose of drilling developmental natural gas wells. The Partnership has a maximum 50-year term, although the Partnership intends to terminate when all of the wells invested in by the Partnership become uneconomical to continue to operate, which may be approximately 15 years or longer. The Partnership was formed by MDS Energy Development, LLC (MDS), a related party, as the Managing General Partner (MGP) and M/D Gas, Inc. (M/D), a related party. In accordance with the terms of the limited partnership agreement, the MGP is authorized to manage all activities of the Partnership and initiates and completes substantially all transactions.

In our opinion, the accompanying condensed financial statements contain all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Partnership’s financial statements for interim periods in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the SEC. Accordingly, pursuant to such rules and regulations, certain notes and other financial information included in audited financial statements have been condensed or omitted. The information presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Partnership’s audited financial statements and notes thereto included in its 2014 Form 10-K. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Proved Property Impairment - The Partnership assesses its producing natural gas properties for possible impairment, upon a triggering event, by comparing net capitalized costs to estimated undiscounted future net cash flows on a well by well basis using estimated production based upon prices at which the Partnership reasonably estimates the commodities to be sold. The estimates of future prices may differ from current market prices of natural gas. Certain events, including but not limited to, downward revisions in estimates to the Partnership’s reserve quantities, expectations of falling commodity prices or rising operating costs, could result in a triggering event and, therefore, a possible impairment of the Partnership’s proved natural gas properties. If net capitalized costs exceed undiscounted future net cash flows, the measurement of impairment is based on estimated fair value utilizing a future discounted cash flows analysis, which is predominantly unobservable data or inputs, and is measured by the amount by which the net capitalized costs exceed their fair value. Estimated undiscounted future net cash flows are determined using prices from the forward price curve at the measurement date. Estimated discounted future net cash flows are determined utilizing a risk adjusted discount rate that is based on rates utilized by market participants that are commensurate with the risks inherent in the development of the underlying natural gas reserves. Due to the decrease in natural gas prices, as further discussed in Note 4, the Partnership reviewed its proved natural gas properties for impairment at ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2015~~2016 and ~~recognized~~did annot ~~impairment~~recognize an impairment charge offor ~~approximately $3,735,000 during~~ the ~~third~~first quarter ~~2015~~2016. The Partnership ~~recognized~~has an accumulated impairment charge of proved natural gas properties of approximately $611,~~931~~810,~~000~~658 ~~for~~as ~~the~~of ~~year ended~~ December 31, ~~2014~~2015.

Asset Retirement Obligations - The Partnership applies the provisions of “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations” and “Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations” and accounts for asset retirement obligations by recording the fair value of its plugging and abandonment obligations when incurred, which is at the time the well is completely drilled. Upon initial recognition of an asset retirement obligation, the Partnership increases the carrying amount of the long-lived asset by the same amount as the liability. Over time, the asset retirement obligations are accreted, over the estimated life of the related asset, for the change in their present value. The initial capitalized costs are depleted over the useful lives of the related assets, through charges to depreciation, depletion and amortization. If the fair value of the estimated asset retirement obligation changes, an adjustment is recorded to both the asset retirement obligation and the asset retirement cost. Revisions in estimated liabilities can result from revisions of estimated inflation rates, escalating retirement costs and changes in the estimated timing of settling asset retirement obligations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements - In May 2014, the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board issued their converged standard on revenue recognition that provides a single, comprehensive model that entities will apply to determine the measurement of revenue and timing of when it is recognized. The underlying principle is that an entity will recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The standard outlines a five-step approach to apply the underlying principle: (a) identify the contract with the customer, (b) identify the separate performance obligations in the contract, (c) determine the transaction price, (d) allocate the transaction price to separate performance obligations and (e) recognize revenue when (or as) each performance obligation is satisfied. The revenue standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period, and can be adopted under the full retrospective method or simplified transition method. Early adoption is not permitted. The Partnership plans to adopt the revenue standard beginning January 1, 2018 and is currently evaluating the impact that these changes will have on our condensed financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-15, Disclosures of Uncertainties About an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, new guidance related to the disclosures around going concern. The new standard provides guidance around management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adopting is permitted. ~~The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements.~~

NOTE 3 - CONCENTRATION OF RISK

Accounts Receivable - This Partnership’s accounts receivable are from purchasers of natural gas production. The Partnership sells substantially all of its gas production to a customer who purchases from other Partnerships managed by the Partnership’s MGP. Inherent to the Partnership’s industry is the concentration of natural gas sales to a limited number of customers. This industry concentration has the potential to impact the Partnership’s overall exposure to credit risk in that its customers may be similarly affected by the changes in economic and financial condition, commodity prices and other conditions.

As of ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2015~~2016 and December 31, ~~2014,~~ 2015, the Partnership did not record an allowance for doubtful accounts. In making the estimate for receivables that are uncollectible, the MGP considers, among other things, subsequent collections, historical write-offs and overall creditworthiness of the Partnership’s customers. It is reasonably possible the estimate for uncollectable receivables will change periodically. Historically neither MDS nor any of the other Partnerships managed by the Partnership’s MGP, have experienced uncollectable accounts receivable. The Partnership did not incur any losses on accounts receivable for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2015~~2016 or ~~September 30, 2014~~2015.

NOTE 4 - PARTICIPATION IN COSTS AND REVENUES

For the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2015,~~ 2016, approximately $~~586~~128,000 of gross revenue from the sale of natural gas had been received or estimated for approximately ~~361~~102,~~400 MCF~~800 MCF at an average price of $1.6224 per MCF. Royalties for this period were approximately $6613,000. In addition approximately $77,000 of gross revenue from the sale of natural gas had been recorded as revenue as a result of the Partnership estimating revenue not yet received, which is 64,800 MCF at an average price of $1.18. These amounts are recorded as accounts receivable net of royalties approximating $7,500. The ~~estimated~~total ~~amount~~estimate of expenses to be deducted from those amounts is ~~further~~approximately $62,900, which are typically ~~explained~~transportation, ~~below~~well maintenance and lease operating expense.

For the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2014,~~ 2015, approximately $1234,~~260,000~~700 of gross revenue from the sale of natural gas had been received or estimated for approximately ~~393~~109,~~400 MCF~~800 MCF at an average price of $32.2013 per MCF. Royalties for this period were approximately $~~164~~28,000. In addition approximately $153,000 of gross revenue from the sale of natural gas had been recorded as revenue as a result of the Partnership estimating revenue not yet received, which is 86,600 MCF at an average price of $1.77. These amounts are recorded as accounts receivable net of royalties approximating $17,500. The ~~estimated~~total ~~amount~~estimate of expenses to be deducted from those amounts is ~~further~~approximately $80,000, which are typically ~~explained~~transportation, ~~below~~well maintenance and lease operating expenses.

For the three months ended September 30, 2015, approximately $137,000 of gross revenue from the sale of natural gas had been received or estimated, which is 111,300 MCF at an average price per MCF of $1.23. This incudes approximately $89,000 of gross revenue from the sale of natural gas had been recorded as revenue as a result of the Partnership estimating revenue not yet received, which is 73,800 MCF at an average price per MCF of $1.21. These estimates are recorded as accounts receivable net of royalties approximating $9,000. The total estimate of expenses to be deducted from those amounts is approximately $66,000, which are typically transportation, well maintenance and lease operating expense.

For the three months ended September 30, 2014, approximately $461,000 of gross revenue from the sale of natural gas had been received or estimated, which is 183,000 MCF at an average price per MCF of $2.52. This includes approximately $148,000 of gross revenue from the sale of natural gas had been recorded as revenue as a result of the Partnership estimating revenue not yet received, which is 62,500 MCF at an average price per MCF of $2.37. These estimates are recorded as accounts receivable net of royalties approximating $18,400. The total estimate of expenses to be deducted from those amounts is approximately $52,000, which are typically transportation, well maintenance and lease operating expense.

NOTE 5 - PARTNERS’ CAPITAL

The Partnership Agreement provides that MDS shall review the accounts of the Partnership at least monthly to determine whether cash distributions are appropriate and the amount to be distributed, if any.

The Partnership Agreement provides for the enhancement of investor cash distributions if the Partnership does not meet a performance standard defined in the agreement during the first 8 years of operations beginning the earlier of the first full year of operation after all wells begin production or 12 months after the final closing of the Partnership. In general, if the cumulative distributions to the investors is less than 10% of their subscriptions for years 1 through 5 and 7.5% of their subscriptions for years 6 through 8, MDS will subordinate up to 60% of its share, as MGP, of Partnership gross production revenues. As a result of the trend of lower revenue per MCF that the industry is currently experiencing, the MGP has subordinated 60% of it revenue interest beginning in August 2014 and continuing through ~~September~~March ~~2015~~2016. During the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2015~~2016 and for the year ended December 31, ~~2014~~2015, MGP subordinated $456,~~337~~ 482 and $2751,~~533~~002, respectively, which was distributed to investors. The MGP’s share of expenses exceeds its share of revenue, due to the subordination, thus, the MGP is not currently receiving distributions and owes the Partnership approximately $1426,~~109~~000 and $19,500 which is included with Accounts Receivable ~~and Due~~ from Managing General Partner at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 respectively.

NOTE 6 - TRANSFERS AND PRESENTATIONS

There is no established public trading market for the Partnership’s units and the Partnership does not anticipate that a market for the Partnership’s units will develop. The Partnership’s units may be transferred only in accordance with the provisions of the Partnership Agreement which require:

●

the MGP may require an opinion of counsel that registration under applicable federal and state law is not required;

●

the transfer not result in materially adverse tax consequences to the Partnership; and

●

the transfer must not contravene any terms of the Partnership Agreement.

An assignee of a unit may become a substituted partner only upon meeting the following conditions:

●

the assignor gives the assignee the right;

●

the assignee pays to the Partnership all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the substitution; and

●

the assignee executes and delivers the instruments, which the MGP requires to effect the substitution and to confirm his or her agreement to be bound by the terms of the Partnership Agreement.

A substitute partner is entitled to all of the rights of full ownership of the assigned units, including the right to vote.

Investor Partners may request that the MGP repurchase their units at any time beginning with the fifth anniversary after December 31, 2013 provided that certain conditions are met. The repurchase price is set at the greater of the partner’s share of (i) predominantly 70% of the Partnership’s present worth of future net revenues from the proved reserves as determined under the last reserve report and is reduced by an amount equal to all of the Partnership’s debts or (ii) an amount equal to three times the total amount of distributions paid by the Partnership to the participant during the previous twelve months. The MGP is also permitted to adjust the purchase price under certain conditions for changes occurring after the date of the presentment request. Repurchase requests are fulfilled by the MGP on a first-come, first-served basis and may not exceed 5% of the total units outstanding. The MGP may suspend the presentment feature at any time if it determines that it does not have sufficient cash flow or it is unable to borrow funds on terms it deems reasonable. As of March 31, 2016 the MGP has not repurchased any limited partnership units.

NOTE 10 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

This Partnership's fair value measurements were estimated pursuant to a fair value hierarchy that requires this Partnership to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date, giving the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable data (Level 3). In some cases, the inputs used to measure fair value might fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In these cases, the lowest level input that is significant to a fair value measurement in its entirety determines the applicable level in the fair value hierarchy. Assessing the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, considering factors specific to the asset or liability, and may affect the valuation of the assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels. The carrying value of the financial instruments included in current assets and current liabilities approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

The MGP utilizes fair value, on a non-recurring basis, to perform impairment testing on this Partnership's natural gas properties by comparing net capitalized costs, or carrying value, to estimated undiscounted future net cash flows. If net capitalized costs exceed undiscounted future net cash flows, the measurement of impairment is based on estimated fair value and is measured by the amount by which the net capitalized costs exceed their fair value, which is generally determined using the discounted cash flows.

The fair values were determined using the income approach and were based on the expected present values of the future cash flows from proved reserves. Significant level 3 assumptions associated with the calculation of discounted cash flows used in the impairment analysis included estimates of production costs, development expenditures, anticipated production of reserves, appropriate risk – adjusted discount rates and other relevant data.

NOTE 11 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Environmental

Due to the nature of the natural gas industry, the Partnership is exposed to environmental risks through the services provided to it by affiliated companies.

The affiliated companies have various policies and procedures to avoid environmental contamination and mitigate the risks from environmental contamination. The affiliated companies conduct periodic reviews to identify changes in their environmental risk profile. Liabilities are accrued when environmental assessments and/or clean-ups are probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated. The MGP is not aware of any environmental claims existing as of ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2015~~2016. However, there can be no assurance that current regulatory requirements will not change or unknown past ~~noncompliance~~ noncompliance with environmental laws will not be discovered on the Partnership’s properties.

Legal

Neither the Partnership nor the MGP are party to any pending legal proceeding that the MGP believes would have a materially adverse effect on the Partnership’s business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

Overview

Business of the Partnership, the Managing General Partner and Certain Relationships

The Partnership drilled development wells which means a well drilled within the proved area of a natural gas reservoir to the depth of a stratigraphic horizon known to be productive. Only vertical natural gas wells in the Marcellus Shale area in western Pennsylvania were drilled. The Partnership Agreement governs the rights and obligations of the partners. The investment return will depend solely on the operations and success or lack of success of the Partnership.

The Partnership has been formed as a limited partnership under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act. 1,508.53 units have been sold for an aggregate price of $15,001,000.

The MGP of the Partnership is MDS, a Pennsylvania limited liability company which also serves as MGP of ~~nine~~ten private drilling partnerships, in the aggregate.

First Class Energy, LLC provided the necessary services to drill the wells on behalf of the MGP, and also served as the Partnership’s general drilling contractor (driller) supervised the drilling and completing of the wells drilled by the Partnership and was paid at competitive rates for these services. The gas marketing is handled by ~~an affiliated company,~~ Snyder Brothers~~, Inc~~. The driller has limited information with respect to the ultimate recoverable reserves and production decline rates of vertical wells drilled in the Marcellus Shale primary area. The MGP receives fees and profits in connection with the Partnership’s business.

Governance

The Partnership has no executive officers and currently does not have any directors. Because the Partnership itself does not employ any persons, the MGP has determined that the Partnership will rely on a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics adopted by the MGP that applies to the executive officers, employees and other persons performing services for the MGP.

Conflicts of Interest

Conflicts of interest are inherent in natural gas and oil partnerships involving non-industry investors because the transactions are entered into without arms’ length negotiation. The interests of the investors and those of the MGP and its affiliates may be inconsistent in some respects, and the MGP’s actions may not be the most advantageous to investors.

The Partnership does not directly employ any of the persons responsible for its management or operation. Rather, the personnel of the MGP manage and operate the Partnership’s business, and they will also spend a substantial amount of time managing the business and affairs of the MGP’s other affiliates, which creates a conflict regarding the allocation of their time between the Partnership’s business and affairs and the MGP’s other business interests. In this regard, the Partnership’s policies and procedures for reviewing, approving or ratifying related party transactions with the MGP are set forth in the partnership agreement. Due to the family relationship between Mr. Snyder and the principals and certain executive officers of Snyder Brothers, transactions between Snyder Brothers and its affiliates and the Partnership are subject to similar restrictions and conditions as transactions between the Partnership and affiliates of the MGP.

Natural Gas Sales

The Partnership currently uses the “net-back” method of accounting for arrangements related to its commodity sales. This Partnership sells commodities at the wellhead and collects a price and recognizes revenues based on the wellhead sales price as transportation costs downstream of the wellhead are incurred by the purchaser and reflected in the wellhead price.

As of ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2015~~2016, all of the aggregate capital from our offering of the units has been expended; fourteen wells have been completed ~~with~~and ~~twelve~~are ~~wells~~ producing revenue. ~~Two~~ ~~wells have been shut in line by the MGP.~~ As of ~~September 30~~March 31, ~~2015~~2016, approximately $~~497~~50,~~000~~500 of gross revenue from the sale of natural gas had been received for approximately ~~288~~38,000 MCF of production with an average realized price of $1.7336 per MCF. In addition approximately $8977,000 of gross revenue from the sale of natural gas had been recorded as revenue as a result of the Partnership estimating revenue from production for which the proceeds of the sale of the natural gas had not yet been received and those amounts are recorded as accounts receivable. The average realizable price per MCF for this estimated revenue is $1.2118 per MCF for estimated production of 7364,800 MCF of production.

Natural gas pricing is predominately driven by the supply and demand in the physical and financial markets. Natural gas is sold under various purchase contracts with monthly pricing provisions based on NYMEX pricing, adjusted for differentials. Natural gas prices vary by locality, depending upon the distance to markets, availability of pipeline capacity and supply and demand relationships in that region. The Marcellus shale region, where this production is derived from, has a negative price differential making the prices we are realizing lesser than NYMEX.

9For the three month period ended March 31, 2016 compared to the same period for 2015 natural gas production decreased approximately 6%, due to the normal decline associated with these wells. Additionally, there was a significant decrease in the average price per MCF for the three month period ended March 31, 2016. The average price per MCF for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was approximately $1.24 compared to $2.14 per MCF for the same period in 2015.

~~For~~During the ~~nine~~three ~~month~~months ~~period~~ ended ~~September~~March 31, 302016, ~~2015~~the ~~compared~~Partnership torecognized ~~the~~approximately ~~same~~$128,000 ~~period~~of ~~for~~gross ~~2014~~revenue ~~natural~~from ~~gas~~the ~~production~~sale ~~decreased~~of approximately ~~8%.

During the three months ended September 30, 2015, the Partnership recognized approximately $137,000 of gross revenue from the sale of approximately 111,300 MCF’s as compared to approximately $461,000 of gross revenue from the production of 183,000 MCF’s of production in the three month period ended September 30, 2014. The three month production from September 30, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014 decreased approximately 39% while the average price per MCF decreased 51%.

Natural Gas Production Costs

Generally, natural gas production costs vary with changes in total natural gas production volumes. In addition, general field services and all other costs vary and can fluctuate based on services required, but are expected to increase as wells age and require more extensive repair and maintenance. These costs include water hauling and disposal, equipment repairs and maintenance, snow removal, environmental compliance and remediation and service rig workovers. Production costs for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2015~~2016 were approximately $~~251~~107,000., ~~Production~~compared to ~~costs~~the ~~for~~same ~~the~~period ~~three~~in ~~months~~2015 ~~ended~~natural ~~September~~gas ~~30,~~production ~~2015~~costs ~~were~~decreased approximately $8022,000. A factor in the decrease of natural gas production cost was associated with some of the well being classified as stripper wells and thus the impact fees that were being paid on said wells has stopped being charged.

Natural gas production costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014 increased approximately $63,000 since 12 wells have been producing during 2015 while the 12 wells were phased into production during 2014.

Natural gas production costs for the three months ended September 30, 2015 decreased by approximately $16,000 compared to the same period in 2014. Natural gas production costs per MCF increased to $.72 during 2015 from $.52 in 2014 due to reduced production for the three months ended September 30, 2015.

Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization

Depreciation, depletion and amortization (DD&A) expense ~~for operations~~ was approximately $~~484~~50,000 for the ~~nine months ended September 30, 2015 from production of 384,000 MCFs. DD&A expenses for the~~ three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2015~~2016 ~~were approximately $140,000~~ from production of ~~approximately 111~~101,000 MCFs~~. DD&A expenses for the nine months ended September 30~~, ~~2015~~ compared to the same period ~~during 2014 had a rate decrease of approximately 35% primarily driven by the decrease~~ in ~~the~~2015 ~~natural gas prices~~ which ~~resulted~~has in an ~~impairment~~expense of ~~natural gas~~$167,000 ~~properties~~from asproduction of ~~December 31~~132,000 ~~2014~~MCFs. The DD&A expense rate per MCF is estimated atto be $10.2650 for ~~2015~~2016 as compared to $1.9426 for ~~2014~~ 2015. ~~Due~~The decrease is due to the impairment charge recognized during ~~the third quarter 2015, the DD&A rate is estimated to be approximately~~ ~~$.50 per MCF for~~ the ~~fourth~~year ~~quarter~~ended 2015.

DD&A expense related to natural gas properties is directly related to proven reserves and production volumes. DD&A expense decreased approximately $~~215~~117,000 for the three months ended ~~September 30~~March 31, ~~2015~~2016 compared to the three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2014~~2015 due to a decrease in production volumes, and the decreased DD&A rate.

Direct costs - general and administrative

Direct costs for the three month period ended September 30, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014 decreased by $6,000 due to increased professional fees of $25,000 offset by reduced impact fees of approximately $31,000.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Partnership's primary source of liquidity has been cash flows from operating activities. Fluctuations in this Partnership's operating cash flows are substantially driven by changes in commodity prices and sales volumes. This source of cash has been primarily used to fund this Partnership's operating costs, direct costs-general and administrative, capital program and distributions to the Investor Partners and the MGP.

The Partnership's future operations are expected to be conducted with available funds and revenues generated from natural gas production activities. Natural gas production from existing properties is generally expected to continue a gradual decline in the rate of production over the remaining life of the wells. Any additional funds, if required, will be obtained from production revenues or advances from the MGP.

The Partnership’s future operations are expected to be conducted with available funds and revenues generated from natural gas production activities. Natural gas production from existing properties is generally expected to continue a gradual decline in the rate of production over the remaining life of the wells. Any additional funds, if required, will be obtained from production revenues, advances or waiving/suspending of fees from the MGP.

Working Deficit

At March 31, 2016, the Partnership had working deficit of $(45,000), compared to working deficit of $(17,000) at December 31, 2015. The decrease of $28,000 between March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 was primarily due to an increase of professional fees and direct expenses of the Partnership.

Cash Flows

Operating Activities

The Partnership's cash flows from operating activities in ~~2015~~the first quarter of 2016 were primarily impacted by commodity prices, operating costs, professional fees and reduced production.

Net cash flows from operating activities were $~~221~~36,~~010~~758 for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2015~~2016 compared to $~~764~~110,~~557~~543 for the comparable period in ~~2014~~2015. The decrease in in cash from operating activities was primarily due to a decrease in natural gas pricing and production.

Financing Activities

The Partnership ~~initiated cash distributions to investors during 2014 and has~~ distributed $~~229~~10,~~281~~422 for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2015~~2016 for the comparable period in ~~2014~~ 2015 the Partnership distributed $~~666~~128,~~895~~375. During the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, the MGP subordinated $6,482 and $1,902, respectively, which was distributed to investors.

Critical Accounting Policies

The discussion and analysis of the Partnership’s financial condition is based upon the Partnership’s condensed balance sheets, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Partnership will base its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances, and the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The Partnership will evaluate its estimates on an on-going basis.

Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. A discussion of significant accounting policies the Partnership has adopted and followed in the preparation of its financial statements is included within “Notes to Financial Statements” in Part I, Item 1, “Financial Statements” in this quarterly report and in its Form 10-K dated March 1314, ~~2015~~2016.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The MGP on behalf of the Partnership, with the participation of the MGP’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and President and the Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2015. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company 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 SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Partnership’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Under the supervision of the MGP’s Chief Executive Officer and President, and Chief Financial Officer, the MGP has carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the MGP’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and President and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that, at September 30, 2015, the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.11
