NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)



|1. | Accounting Policies
|-- | -------------------



Reference is hereby made to the Partnerships Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2004, which contains a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the partnership in the preparation of its financial
statements. These policies are also followed in preparing the quarterly report included herein.



In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary to present fairly our financial position, results of operations, cash flows
and partners capital for the periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the final results expected for the full year.



|2. | Accounting for Oil and Gas Producing Activities
|-- | -----------------------------------------------



Mewbourne Energy Partners 03-A, L.P., (the Partnership), a Delaware limited partnership is engaged primarily in oil and gas development and production in
Texas, Oklahoma, and New Mexico, and was organized on February 19, 2003. The offering of limited and general partnership interests began May 16, 2003 as a part of an offering registered under the name Mewbourne Energy Partners 02-03
Drilling Programs, (the Program), and concluded July 9, 2003, with total investor contributions of $18,000,000 originally being sold to 710 subscribers of which $16,107,005 were sold to 644 subscribers as general partner interests
and $1,892,995 were sold to 66 subscribers as limited partner interests. During the quarter ended March 31, 2005, all general partner interests were converted to limited partner interests and accordingly all partnership interests have been
reflected in the accompanying financial statements as limited partner interests.



The Partnership follows the full-cost method of accounting for its oil and gas activities. Under the full-cost method, all productive and non-productive costs incurred in the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas
properties are capitalized. Depreciation, depletion and amortization of oil and gas properties subject to amortization is computed on the units-of-production method based on the proved reserves underlying the oil and gas properties. At
September 30, 2005 and 2004 all capitalized costs were subject to amortization. Proceeds from the sale or other disposition of properties are credited to the full cost pool. Gains and losses on the sale or other disposition of properties are
not recognized unless such adjustments would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and the proved oil and gas reserves. Capitalized costs are subject to a quarterly ceiling test that limits such costs to the aggregate of the
present value of future net cash flows of proved reserves and the lower of cost or fair value of unproved properties.

|3. | Asset Retirement Obligations
|-- | ----------------------------



In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations, the Partnership has recognized an
estimated liability for future plugging and abandonment costs. The estimated liability is based on historical experience and estimated well life. The liability is discounted using the credit-adjusted risk-free rate. Revisions to the liability could
occur due to changes in well plugging and abandonment costs or well useful lives, or if federal or state regulators enact new well restoration requirements. The Partnership recognizes accretion expense in connection with the discounted liability
over the remaining life of the well.



A reconciliation of the
Partnerships liability for well plugging and abandonment costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, is as follows:



|                             |  |   |        
|---------------------------- |  | - | -------
|Balance, beginning of period |  | $ | 379,022
|Liabilities incurred         |  |   | 2,905  
|Accretion expense            |  |   | 13,331 
|                             |  |   |        
|Balance, end of period       |  | $ | 395,258
|                             |  |   |        



|4. | Related Party Transactions
|-- | --------------------------



Mewbourne Development Corporation (MD) is managing general partner and Mewbourne Oil Company (MOC) is operator of oil and gas properties owned by the Partnership. Mewbourne Holdings, Inc. is the parent of both MD and
MOC. Substantially all transactions are with MD and MOC.



In the ordinary
course of business, MOC will incur certain costs that will be passed on to well owners of the well on which the costs were incurred. The partnership will receive their portion of these costs based upon their ownership in each well incurring the
costs. These costs are referred to as Operator charges and are standard and customary in the oil and gas industry. Operator charges include recovery of gas marketing costs, fixed rate overhead, supervision, pumping, and equipment furnished by the
Operator. Services and operator charges are billed in accordance with the program and partnership agreements.



In general, during any particular calendar year the total amount of administrative expenses allocated to the Partnership shall not exceed the greater of (a) 3.5% of the Partnerships gross revenue from the
sale of oil and natural gas production during each year (calculated without any deduction for operating costs or other costs and expenses) or (b) the sum of $50,000 plus .25% of the capital contributions of limited and general partners.

|Operating costs, reporting and legal expenses, general and administrative expenses and all other costs |  | 60          | % |  | 40  | %



|(1) | As noted above, pursuant to the Program, MD must contribute 100% of organization and offering costs and lease acquisition costs which will approximate 30% of total capital costs. To
the extent that organization and offering costs and lease acquisition costs are less that 30% of total capital costs, MD is responsible for tangible drilling costs until its share of the Programs total capital costs reaches approximately 30%.

Liquidity and Capital Resources



Mewbourne Energy Partners 03-A, L.P. (the Partnership) was formed February 19, 2003. The offering of limited and general
partnership interests began May 16, 2003 and concluded July 9, 2003, with total investor contributions of $18,000,000. During the quarter ended March 31, 2005, all general partner interests were converted to limited partner interests
and accordingly all partnership interests have been reflected in the accompanying financial statements as limited partner interests.



The Partnership has acquired interests in oil and gas prospects for the purpose of development drilling. The Partnership participated in the drilling of 72 wells. 65
wells were productive and 7 wells were abandoned.



Future capital requirements
and operations will be conducted with available funds generated from oil and gas activities. No bank borrowing is anticipated. The Partnership had net working capital of $860,053 at September 30, 2005.



During the nine months ended September 30, 2005, the Partnership made cash distributions
to the investor partners in the amount of $3,980,404 as compared to $3,206,091 for the nine months ended September 30, 2004. The Partnership expects that cash distributions will continue during 2005 as additional oil and gas revenues are
sufficient to produce cash flows from operations.



The sale of crude oil and
natural gas produced by the Partnership will be affected by a number of factors that are beyond the Partnerships control. These factors include the price of crude oil and natural gas, the fluctuating supply of and demand for these products,
competitive fuels, refining, transportation, extensive federal and state regulations governing the production and sale of crude oil and natural gas, and other competitive conditions. It is impossible to predict with any certainty the future effect
of these factors on the Partnership.

As shown in the table above, total oil
and gas sales decreased $378,917 (18.1%) for the three months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2004. Of this decrease, $87,873 and $1,296,596, respectively, were related to decreases in
volumes of oil and gas sold. Volumes of oil and gas sold decreased 1,458 bbls of oil and 167,351 mcf of gas for the three months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2004. The decrease in volumes of
oil sold was primarily due to a substantial decline in the production of two wells. The decrease in volumes of gas sold was primarily due to a substantial decline in the production of one well and overall normal declines in production. The wells
with a substantial decline in production are not expected to return to previous levels of production. These decreases were partially offset by increases of $65,420 and $940,132, respectively, related to increases in the average prices of oil and gas
sold. Average oil and gas prices increased to $60.27 per bbl and $7.75 per mcf for the three months ended September 30, 2005 from $43.62 per bbl and $5.20 per mcf for the three months ended September 30, 2004.



Interest income. Interest income was $436 during the three months ended September 30,
2005 as compared to $3,222 during the three months period ended September 30, 2004. The decrease is primarily due to the decrease in funds available for investment.



Lease operations and production taxes. Lease operating expense during the period ended September 30, 2005 totaled $113,393 as compared
to $136,132 for the period ended September 30, 2004. Lease operating expense decreased primarily due to the workover and repair of two wells in the period ended September 30, 2004. Production taxes during the period ended
September 30, 2005 total $138,556 compared to $177,910 for the period ended September 30, 2004. The decrease in production taxes is due to the decrease in oil and gas revenues.



Depreciation, depletion and amortization. Depreciation, depletion and amortization for the three month period ended September 30, 2005
total $441,502 compared to $817,222 for the three month period ended September 30, 2004. The decrease is due to the decline in production volumes.



Administrative and general expense. Administrative and general expense for the three month period ended September 30, 2005 total $57,596 compared to $78,086 for the
period ended September 30, 2004. The overall decrease is due to reduced administrative charges caused by decreased oil and gas revenues since administrative charges are a percentage of gross revenue.

As shown in the table above, total oil
and gas sales decreased $670,547 (12.3%) for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2004. Of this decrease, $346,094 and $1,662,157, respectively, were related to decreases in
volumes of oil and gas sold. Volumes of oil and gas sold decreased 6,609 bbls of oil and 256,469 mcf of gas for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2004. The decrease in volumes of
oil sold was primarily due to a substantial decline in the production of three wells. The decrease in volumes of gas sold was primarily due to a substantial decline in the production of two wells and overall normal declines in production. The wells
with a substantial decline in production are not expected to return to previous levels of production. These decreases were partially offset by increases of $226,937 and $1,110,767, respectively, related to increases in the average prices of oil and
gas sold. Average oil and gas prices increased to $52.37 per bbl and $6.48 per mcf for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 from $37.86 per bbl and $5.28 per mcf for the nine months ended September 30, 2004.



Interest income. Interest income was $2,062 during the nine months ended September 30,
2005 as compared to $19,289 during the nine months period ended September 30, 2004. The decrease is primarily due to the decrease in funds available for investment.



Lease operations and production taxes. Lease operating expense during the period ended September 30, 2005 totaled $335,154 as compared
to $282,514 for the period ended September 30, 2004. Production taxes during the period ended September 30, 2005 total $382,983 compared to $453,747 for the period ended September 30, 2004. Lease operating expense increased primarily
due the addition of 2 new wells in the period ended September 30, 2005. The decrease in production taxes is due to the decrease in oil and gas revenues.



Depreciation, depletion and amortization. Depreciation, depletion and amortization for the nine month period ended September 30, 2005 total $1,506,676 compared to
$2,063,536 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2004. The decrease is due to the decline in production volumes.



Administrative and general expense. Administrative and general expense for the nine month period ended September 30, 2005 total $209,795 compared to $145,504 for the
period ended September 30, 2004. The increase is primarily due to the timing of administrative costs and higher general expenses for reporting costs.
