    Mcf represents one thousand cubic feet of natural gas. Mcfe represents a thousand
cubic feet equivalent. Oil production is converted to mcfe at the rate of six mcf per
barrel (bbl).(2)
    
    Lifting costs include labor to operate the wells and related equipment, repairs
and maintenance, materials and supplies, property taxes, insurance and gathering
charges.(3)
    
    Average sales prices represent accrual basis pricing after reversing the effect
of previously recognized gains resulting from prior period impairment charges.(4)
    
    Average gas prices are calculated by including in total revenue derivative gains
previously recognized into income and dividing by the total volume for the period.
Previously recognized derivative gains were $373,300 and $569,500 for the years ended
December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The derivative gains are included in other
comprehensive (loss) income and resulted from prior period impairment charges.(5)
    
    Average oil prices are calculated by including in total revenue derivative gains
previously recognized into income and dividing by the total volume for the period. The
derivative gains are included in other comprehensive (loss) income and resulted from
prior period impairment charges. Natural Gas and Oil Reserve Information.
 
    
    Introduce a new definition of oil and gas producing activities. This new definition
allows companies to include in their reserve base volumes from unconventional resources.
Such unconventional resources include bitumen extracted from oil sands and oil and gas
extracted from coal beds and shale formations.
 
    
    Report oil and gas reserves using an unweighted average price using the prior 12-month
period, based on the closing prices on the first day of each month, rather than year-end
pricing. This should maximize the comparability of reserve estimates among companies and
mitigate the distortion of the estimates that arises when using a single pricing date.
 
    
    Permit companies to disclose their probable and possible reserves on a voluntary basis.
Current rules limit disclosure to only proved reserves.


    
    Update and revise reserve definitions to reflect changes in the oil and gas industry and
new technologies. New updated definitions include by geographic area and reasonable
certainty.
 
    
    Permit the use of new technologies to determine proved reserves if those technologies
have been demonstrated empirically to lead to reliable conclusions about reserves volumes.
 
    
    Require additional disclosures regarding the qualifications of the chief technical
person who oversees the companys overall reserve estimation process. Additionally,
disclosures are required related to internal controls over reserve estimation, as well as a
report addressing the independence and qualifications of a companys reserves preparer or
auditor based on Society of Petroleum Engineers criteria.

    Proved reserves generally refers to the estimated quantities of crude oil, natural
gas, and natural gas liquids which geological and engineering data demonstrate with
reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under
existing economic and operating conditions, i.e., prices and costs as of the date the
estimate is made. Prices include consideration of changes in existing prices provided
only by contractual arrangements, but not on escalations based upon future conditions.
Reservoirs are considered proved if economic production is supported by either actual
production or conclusive formation test. The area of a reservoir considered proved
includes that portion delineated by drilling and defined by gas-oil and/or oil-water
contacts, if any; and the immediately adjoining portions not yet drilled, but which can
be reasonably judged as economically productive on the basis of available geological and
engineering data.(2)
    
    Proved developed oil and gas reserves generally refers to reserves that can be
expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and operating
methods.(3)
    
    The present value of estimated future net cash flows is calculated by discounting
estimated future net cash flows by 10% annually.(4)
    
    Please see Regulation S-X rule 4-10 for complete definitions of each reserve
category.(5)
    
    This value per $10,000 unit is determined by following the methodology used for
determining our proved reserves using the data discussed above. However, this value does
not necessarily reflect the fair market value of a unit, and each unit is illiquid.
Also, the value of a unit for purposes of presentment of the unit to our MGP for
purchase is different, because it is calculated under a formula set forth in the
partnership agreement.  Title to Properties

 
    
    Introduce a new definition of oil and gas producing
activities. This new definition allows companies to include
in their reserve base volumes from unconventional resources.
Such unconventional resources include bitumen extracted from
oil sands and oil and gas extracted from coal beds and shale
formations;
    
    Report oil and gas reserves using an unweighted average
price using the prior 12-month period, based on the closing
prices on the first day of each month, rather than year-end
pricing. This should maximize the comparability of reserve
estimates among companies and mitigate the distortion of the
estimates that arises when using a single pricing date;
    
    Permit companies to disclose their probable and possible
reserves on a voluntary basis. Current rules limit
disclosure to only proved reserves;
    
    Update and revise reserve definitions to reflect changes in
the oil and gas industry and new technologies. New updated
definitions include by geographic area and reasonable
certainty;
    
    Permit the use of new technologies to determine proved
reserves if those technologies have been demonstrated
empirically to lead to reliable conclusions about reserves
volumes; and
    
    Require additional disclosures regarding the qualifications
of the chief technical person who oversees the companys
overall reserve estimation process. Additionally,
disclosures are required with regard to internal controls
over reserve estimation, as well as a report addressing the
independence and qualifications of a companys reserves
preparer or auditor based on Society of Petroleum Engineers
criteria.

the partnership revenues and the MGP revenue percentage may not exceed 35%.(2)
    
    These costs will be charged to the partners in the same ratio as the related

DECEMBER 31, 2009 AND 2008
 NOTE 8  FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
  Level 1
    
    Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and
liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.
 Level 2
    
    Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable
for the asset and liability or can be corroborated with observable market data for
substantially the entire contractual term of the asset or liability.
 Level 3
    
    Unobservable inputs that reflect the entities own assumptions about the
assumptions that market participants would use in the pricing of the asset or liability
and are consequently not based on market activity, but rather through particular
valuation techniques.

  
    
    the approximate amount of an individuals professional time devoted to the business and
affairs of our MGP and Atlas America have been aggregated because there is no reasonable
method for them to distinguish their activities between the two companies; and
 
    
    for those individuals who also hold senior positions with other affiliates of our MGP,
if it is stated that they devote approximately 100% of their professional time to our MGP
and Atlas, it is because either the other affiliates are not currently active in drilling
new wells, such as Viking Resources or Resource Energy, and the individuals are not
required to devote a material amount of their professional time to the affiliates, or there
is no reasonable method to distinguish their activities between our MGP and Atlas America
as compared with the other affiliates of our MGP, such as Viking Resources or Resource
Energy.
