PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Introduction

Everflow Eastern Partners, L.P. (the “Company”), a Delaware limited partnership, engages in the business of oil and gas acquisition, exploration, development and production. The Company was formed for the purpose of consolidating the business and oil and gas properties of Everflow Eastern, Inc., an Ohio corporation (“EEI”), and the oil and gas properties owned by certain limited partnerships and working interest programs managed or operated by EEI (the “Programs”). Everflow Management Limited, LLC (the “General Partner”), an Ohio limited liability company, is the general partner of the Company.

Exchange Offer. The Company made an offer (the “Exchange Offer”) to acquire the common shares of EEI (the “EEI Shares”) and the interests of investors in the Programs (collectively the “Interests”) in exchange for units of limited partnership interest (the “Units”). The Exchange Offer was made pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-1 declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 19, 1990 (the “Registration Statement”) and the Prospectus dated December 19, 1990, as filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b).

The Exchange Offer terminated on February 15, 1991 and holders of Interests with an aggregate value (as determined by the Company for purposes of the Exchange Offer) of $66,996,249 accepted the Exchange Offer and tendered their Interests. Effective on such date, the Company acquired such Interests, which included partnership interests and working interests in the Programs, and all of the outstanding EEI Shares. Of the Interests tendered in the Exchange Offer, $28,565,244 was represented by the EEI Shares and $38,431,005 by the remaining Interests.

The parties who accepted the Exchange Offer and tendered their Interests received an aggregate of 6,632,464 Units. Everflow Management Company, a predecessor of the General Partner of the Company, contributed Interests with an aggregate exchange value of $670,980 in exchange for a 1% interest in the Company.

The Company. The Company was organized in September 1990. The principal executive offices of the Company, the General Partner and EEI are located at 585 West Main Street, Canfield, Ohio 44406 (telephone number 330-533-2692).

Description of the Business

General. The Company has participated on an on-going basis in the acquisition, exploration, development and production of undeveloped oil and gas properties and has pursued the acquisition of producing oil and gas properties.

-1-

Subsidiaries. The Company has two subsidiaries. EEI was organized as an Ohio corporation in February 1979 and, since the consummation of the Exchange Offer, has been a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. EEI is engaged in the business of oil and gas production.

A-1 Storage of Canfield, Ltd. (“A-1 Storage”) was organized as an Ohio limited liability company in late 1995 and is 99% owned by the Company and 1% owned by EEI. A-1 Storage’s business includes leasing of office space to the Company as well as rental of storage units to non-affiliated parties.

Current Operations. The properties of the Company consist in large part of fractional undivided working interests in properties containing proved reserves of oil and gas located in the Appalachian Basin region of Ohio and Pennsylvania. Approximately 70% of the estimated total future cash inflows related to the Company’s crude oil and natural gas reserves as of December 31, 2011 are attributable to natural gas reserves. The majority of such properties are located in Ohio and consist primarily of proved producing properties with established production histories.

The Company’s operations since February 1991 primarily involve the production and sale of oil and gas and the drilling and development of approximately 440 (net) wells. The Company serves as the operator of approximately 60% of the gross wells and 75% of the net wells which comprise the Company’s properties.

The Company expects to hold its producing properties until the oil and gas reserves underlying such properties are substantially depleted. However, the Company may, from time to time, sell any of its producing or other properties or leasehold interests if the Company believes that such sale would be in its best interest.

Sale of Deep Rights. In November 2010, the Company signed a letter agreement with Ohio Buckeye Energy, L.L.C. (the “Purchaser”), whereby the Company had agreed to sell the Company’s deep rights in certain Ohio properties totaling approximately 28,000 acres, which includes the depths below the stratigraphic equivalent of the top of the Queenston Formation (the “Disposition”), to the Purchaser for cash consideration. The Company received a $1 million deposit from the Purchaser that is to be credited to the Purchaser upon closing of the Disposition.

In February 2012, the Company closed on the first part of the Disposition with the sale of deep rights in approximately 28,000 acres to the Purchaser for cash consideration net to the Company’s interest of approximately $35 million.

The Company anticipates holding a second and final closing with the Purchaser during the second quarter of 2012 (the “Final Disposition”), as additional time is needed to allow the Company to cure various potential defects in the Company’s lease rights in the subject acreage as described in the closing conditions of the agreement. After the closing of the first part of the Disposition and prior to the Final Disposition (the “Interim Period”), the Company also anticipates receiving cash consideration on various defected lease rights as the defects become cured. In addition, the Company anticipates that there will be certain defects that it will be

-2-

unable to cure. The Company expects to receive cash consideration net to the Company’s interest during the Interim Period and from the Final Disposition of approximately $1 million—$3 million. There can be no assurance that all of the conditions to closing the Final Disposition will be satisfied or that the Company’s expectations as to cash consideration to be received during the Interim Period and from the Final Disposition will be realized.

Business Plan. The Company continually evaluates whether the Company can develop oil and gas properties at historical levels given the current costs of drilling and development activities, the current prices of oil and gas, and the Company’s ability to find oil and gas in commercially productive quantities. See “MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.”

Acquisition of Prospects. The Company maintains a leasehold inventory from which the General Partner will select oil and gas prospects for development by the Company. The Company makes additions to such leasehold inventory on an on-going basis. The Company may also acquire leases from third parties. Prior to 2000, EEI generated approximately 90% of the prospects which were drilled. Beginning in 2000, the Company began generating fewer prospects and has participated in more joint ventures with other operators. As of December 31, 2011, the Company’s current leasehold inventory consists of approximately 50 prospects in various stages of maturity representing approximately 972 net acres under lease.

In choosing oil and gas prospects for the Company, the General Partner does not attempt to manage the risks of drilling through a policy of selecting diverse prospects in various geographic areas or with the potential of oil and gas production from different geological formations. Rather, substantially all prospects are expected to be located in the Appalachian Basin of Ohio and Pennsylvania and are to be drilled primarily to the Clinton/Medina Sands geological formation or closely related oil and gas formations in such area. The Company also has the right to participate in the development of certain wells in the Utica geological formation with a joint venture partner. The Company does not currently participate in the operation of such wells, and has not yet determined whether, or to what extent, it might exercise its right to do so.

Acquisition of Producing Properties. As a potential means of increasing its reserve base, the Company expects to evaluate opportunities which it may be presented with to acquire oil and gas producing properties from third parties in addition to its ongoing leasehold acquisition and development activities. While the Company did not acquire any producing oil and gas properties during 2011, it did acquire 1.13 net producing oil and gas properties during 2010.

The Company will continue to evaluate properties for acquisition. Such properties may include, in addition to working interests, royalty interests, net profit interests and production payments, other forms of direct or indirect ownership interests in oil and gas production, and properties associated with the production of oil and gas. The Company also may acquire general or limited partner interests in general or limited partnerships and interests in joint ventures, corporations or other entities that have, or are formed to acquire, explore for or develop, oil and gas or conduct other activities associated with the ownership of oil and gas production.

-3-

Funding for Activities. The Company finances its current operations, including undeveloped leasehold acquisition activities, through cash generated from operations. See “MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS—Results of Operations.”

The Company is permitted to incur indebtedness for any partnership purpose. It is currently anticipated that any such indebtedness would consist primarily of borrowings from commercial banks. The Company and EEI had no borrowings during 2011 or 2010 and no principal indebtedness was outstanding as of March 15, 2012. See “MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS—Liquidity and Capital Resources.”

Although the Company’s Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership dated as of February 10, 2010 (the “Partnership Agreement”) does not contain any specific restrictions on borrowings, the Company has no specific plans to borrow for the acquisition of producing oil and gas properties. The Company expects that borrowings may be necessary to enable it to repurchase Units tendered in connection with the Repurchase Right (as defined under [ITEM 5. MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES]). See “MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS—Liquidity and Capital Resources.”

The Company owns a significant amount of oil and gas reserves. The Company generally does not expect to borrow funds, from whatever source, in excess of 40% of its total value of proved developed reserves (as determined using the Company’s Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows). However, there can be no assurance that the Company’s future obligations and liabilities would not lead to borrowings in excess of such amount. Based upon its current business plan, management has no present intention to cause the Company to borrow in excess of this amount. The Company has estimated the value of proved and proved developed reserves, determined as of December 31, 2011, which aggregate $60,562,000 (Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows).

Marketing. The ability of the Company to market oil and gas found in and produced on its properties will depend on a number of factors beyond its control, and the impact of such factors, either individually or in the aggregate, cannot be anticipated or measured. These factors include, among others, the amount of domestic oil and gas production and foreign imports available from other sources, the capacity and proximity of pipelines, governmental regulations, and general market demand.

Crude Oil. Any crude oil produced from the properties can be sold at the prevailing field price to one or more of a number of unaffiliated purchasers in the area. Generally, purchase contracts for the sale of crude oil are cancelable on 30 days notice. The price paid by these purchasers is generally an established or “posted” price which is offered to all producers. All posted prices in the areas where the Company’s properties are located are generally somewhat lower than the spot market prices, although there have been substantial fluctuations in crude oil prices in recent years, including 2011.

-4-

The price of crude oil in the Appalachian Basin has ranged from a low of $8.50 per barrel in December 1998 to a high of $138.00 in July 2008. As of March 15, 2012, $100.66 per barrel was the posted field price in the Appalachian Basin area, the Company’s principal area of operation. There can be no assurance that prices will not be subject to continual fluctuations. Future crude oil prices are difficult to predict because of the impact of worldwide economic trends, supply and demand variables, and such non-economic factors as the political impact on pricing policies by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (“OPEC”), governmental instability in foreign oil producing countries, and the possibility of supply interruptions. To the extent the prices that the Company receives for its crude oil production decline, the Company’s revenues from crude oil production will be reduced accordingly.

Since January 1993, the Company has sold substantially all of its crude oil production to Ergon Oil Purchasing, Inc.

Natural Gas. The deliverability and price of natural gas is subject to various factors affecting the supply and demand of natural gas as well as the effect of federal regulations. Prior to 2000, there had been a surplus of natural gas available for delivery to pipelines and other purchasers. During 2000, decreases in worldwide energy production capability and increases in energy consumption resulted in a shortage in natural gas supplies. This resulted in increases in natural gas prices throughout the United States, including the Appalachian Basin. During 2001, lower energy consumption and increased natural gas supplies reduced prices to historical levels. During the period from 2002 through the first half of 2008, shortages in natural gas supplies had resulted from increased energy consumption from industrial, commercial, residential and electric power usage. During the second half of 2008 and through 2011, excess natural gas supplies resulted from the combination of increased production from integrated and independent producers and decreased industrial and commercial energy consumption resulting from the global and United States financial crises and recession. From time to time, especially in summer months, seasonal restrictions on natural gas production have occurred as a result of distribution system restrictions.

Over the ten years prior to 2002, the Company had followed a practice of selling a significant portion of its natural gas pursuant to Intermediate Term Adjustable Price Gas Purchase Agreements (the “East Ohio Contracts”) with Dominion Field Services, Inc. and its affiliates (“Dominion”) (including The East Ohio Gas Company). Pursuant to the East Ohio Contracts and subject to certain restrictions and adjustments, including termination clauses, Dominion was obligated to purchase, and the Company was obligated to sell, all natural gas production from a specified list of wells. Pricing under the East Ohio Contracts was adjusted annually, up or down, by an amount equal to 80% of the increase or decrease in Dominion’s average Gas Cost Recovery rates.

Since 2002, the Company has had and continues to have numerous annual contracts with Dominion, which obligate Dominion to purchase, and the Company to sell and deliver, certain quantities of natural gas production from the Company’s oil and gas properties throughout the contract periods. The Company may elect to lock-in specific volumes of natural gas to be sold in specific months at a mutually agreeable price. The Company has elected to lock-in various monthly quantities of natural gas which total .38 BCF through October 2012 at

-5-

various monthly weighted-average prices ranging from $5.37 to $5.48 per MCF. The weighted-average price for all monthly quantities of natural gas locked-in with Dominion is $5.43 per MCF.

The Company also has an annual contract with Interstate Gas Supply, Inc. (“IGS”), which obligates IGS to purchase, and the Company to sell and deliver, certain quantities of natural gas production from the Company’s oil and gas properties throughout the contract period. The Company may elect to lock-in specific volumes of natural gas to be sold in specific months at a mutually agreeable price. The Company has elected to lock-in various monthly quantities of natural gas which total .24 BCF through October 2012 at various monthly weighted-average prices ranging from $5.23 to $5.54 per MCF. The weighted-average price for all monthly quantities of natural gas locked-in with IGS is $5.36 per MCF.

As detailed above, the price paid for natural gas purchased by Dominion and IGS varies based on quantities committed to by the Company from time to time. Natural gas sold under these contracts in excess of the committed prices is sold at the month’s closing price plus basis adjustments, as per the contracts. These contracts are not considered derivatives, but have been designated as annual sales contracts as defined by generally accepted accounting principles. As of December 31, 2011, natural gas purchased by Dominion covers production from approximately 540 gross wells, while natural gas purchased by IGS covers production from approximately 240 gross wells. See “MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – Inflation and Changes in Prices.”

For the year ended December 31, 2011, with the exception of Dominion and IGS, which accounted for approximately 48% and 22%, respectively, of the Company’s natural gas sales, no one natural gas purchaser has accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s gas sales. The Company expects that Dominion and IGS will be the only material natural gas customers for fiscal 2012.

Seasonality. During summer months, seasonal restrictions on natural gas production have occurred as a result of distribution system restrictions. These production restrictions, and the nature of the Company’s business, result in seasonal fluctuations in the Company’s revenue, with the Company typically receiving more income in the first and fourth quarters of its fiscal year.

Title to Properties. As is customary in the oil and gas industry, the Company performs a limited investigation as to ownership of leasehold acreage at the time of acquisition and conducts a title examination and necessary curative work prior to the commencement of drilling operations on a tract. Title examinations have been performed for substantially all of the producing oil and gas properties owned by the Company with regard to (i) substantial tracts of land forming a portion of such oil and gas properties and (ii) the wellhead location of such properties. The Company believes that title to its properties is acceptable although such properties may be subject to royalty, overriding royalty, carried and other similar interests in contractual arrangements customary in the oil and gas industry. Also, such properties may be subject to liens incident to operating agreements and liens for current taxes not yet due, as well as other comparatively minor encumbrances.

-6-

Competition. The oil and gas industry is highly competitive in all of its phases. The Company encounters strong competition from major and independent oil and gas companies in acquiring economically desirable prospects as well as in marketing production therefrom and obtaining external financing. Major oil and gas companies, independent concerns, drilling and production purchase programs and individual producers and operators are active bidders for desirable oil and gas properties, as well as the equipment and labor required to operate those properties. Many of the Company’s competitors have financial resources, personnel and facilities substantially greater than those of the Company.

The availability of a ready market for the oil and gas production of the Company depends in part on the cost and availability of alternative fuels, the level of consumer demand, the extent of other domestic production of oil and gas, the extent of importation of foreign oil and gas, the cost of and proximity to pipelines and other transportation facilities, regulations by state and federal authorities and the cost of complying with applicable environmental regulations. The volatility of prices for oil and gas and the continued oversupply of domestic natural gas have, at times, resulted in a curtailment in exploration for and development of oil and gas properties.

There is also extensive competition in the market for gas produced by the Company. Increases in energy consumption have at times brought about a shortage in energy supplies. This, in turn, has resulted in substantial competition for markets historically served by domestic natural gas resources both with alternate sources of energy, such as residual fuel oil, and among domestic gas suppliers. As a result, at times there has been volatility in oil and gas prices, widespread curtailment of gas production and delays in producing and marketing gas after it is discovered. Changes in government regulations relating to the production, transportation and marketing of natural gas have also resulted in significant changes in the historical marketing patterns of the industry. Generally, these changes have resulted in the abandonment by many pipelines of long-term contracts for the purchase of natural gas, the development by gas producers of their own marketing programs to take advantage of new regulations requiring pipelines to transport gas for regulated fees, and an increasing tendency to rely on short-term sales contracts priced at spot market prices. See “Marketing” above.

Gas prices, which were once effectively determined by government regulations, are now influenced largely by the effects of competition. Competitors in this market include other producers, gas pipelines and their affiliated marketing companies, independent marketers, and providers of alternate energy supplies.

Regulation of Oil and Gas Industry. The exploration, production and sale of oil and natural gas are subject to numerous state and federal laws and regulations. Such laws and regulations govern a wide variety of matters, including the drilling and spacing of wells, allowable rates of production, marketing, pricing and protection of the environment. Such regulations may restrict the rate at which the Company’s wells produce crude oil and natural gas below the rate at which such wells could produce in the absence of such regulations. In addition, legislation and regulations concerning the oil and gas industry are constantly being reviewed and proposed. Ohio and Pennsylvania, the states in which the Company owns properties and operates, have statutes and regulations governing a number of the matters enumerated above.

-7-

Compliance with the laws and regulations affecting the oil and gas industry generally increases the Company’s costs of doing business and consequently affects its profitability. Inasmuch as such laws and regulations are frequently amended or reinterpreted, the Company is unable to predict the future cost or impact of complying with such regulations.

The interstate transportation and sale for resale of natural gas is regulated by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (the “FERC”) under the Natural Gas Act of 1938. The wellhead price of natural gas is also regulated by the FERC under the authority of the Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978 (“NGPA”). Subsequently, the Natural Gas Wellhead Decontrol Act of 1989 (the “Decontrol Act”) was enacted on July 26, 1989. The Decontrol Act provided for the phasing out of price regulation under the NGPA commencing on the date of enactment and completely eliminated all such gas price regulation on January 1, 1993. In addition, the FERC has adopted and proposed several rules or orders concerning transportation and marketing of natural gas. The impact of these rules and other regulatory developments on the Company cannot be predicted. It is expected that the Company will sell natural gas produced by its oil and gas properties to a number of purchasers, including various industrial customers, pipeline companies and local public utilities, although the majority will be sold to Dominion and IGS as discussed earlier.

As a result of the NGPA and the Decontrol Act, the Company’s natural gas production is no longer subject to price regulation. Natural gas which has been removed from price regulation is subject only to that price contractually agreed upon between the producer and purchaser. Under current market conditions, deregulated gas prices under new contracts tend to be substantially lower than most regulated price ceilings originally prescribed by the NGPA. In addition to the deregulation of gas prices, the FERC has proposed and enacted several rules or orders concerning transportation and marketing of natural gas. In 1992, the FERC finalized Order 636, a rule pertaining to the restructuring of interstate pipeline services. This rule requires interstate pipelines to unbundle transportation and sales services by separately pricing the various components of their services, such as supply, gathering, transportation and sales. These pipeline companies are required to provide customers only the specific service desired without regard to the source for the purchase of the gas. Although the Company is not an interstate pipeline, it is likely that this regulation may indirectly impact the Company by increasing competition in the marketing of natural gas, possibly resulting in an erosion of the premium price historically available for Appalachian natural gas. Regulation of the production, transportation and sale of oil and gas by federal and state agencies has a significant effect on the Company and its operating results. Certain states, including Ohio and Pennsylvania, have established rules and regulations requiring permits for drilling operations, drilling bonds and reports concerning the spacing of wells. The ultimate impact of these rules and other regulatory developments on the Company cannot be predicted.

In addition, from time to time, prices for either crude oil or natural gas have been regulated by the federal government, and such price regulation could be re-imposed at any time in the future.

-8-

Environmental Regulation. The activities of the Company are subject to various federal, state and local laws and regulations designed to protect the environment. The Company does not conduct any offshore activities. Operations of the Company on onshore oil properties may generally be liable for clean-up costs to the federal government under the Federal Clean Water Act for up to $50,000,000 for each incident of oil or hazardous pollution substance contamination and for up to $50,000,000, plus response costs, under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 for hazardous substance contamination. Liability is unlimited in cases of willful negligence or misconduct, and there is no limit on liability for environmental clean-up costs or damages with respect to claims by the state or private persons or entities. In addition, the Company is required by the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) to prepare and implement spill prevention control and countermeasure plans relating to the possible discharge of oil into navigable waters; and the EPA will further require permits to authorize the discharge of pollutants into navigable waters. State and local permits or approvals may also be needed with respect to waste-water discharges and air pollutant emissions. Violations of environment-related lease conditions or environmental permits can result in substantial civil and criminal penalties as well as potential court injunctions curtailing operations. Such enforcement liabilities can result from prosecution by public or private entities.

Various state and governmental agencies are considering, and some have adopted, other laws and regulations regarding environmental protection which could adversely affect the proposed business activities of the Company. The Company cannot predict what effect, if any, current and future regulations may have on the operations of the Company.

Operating Hazards and Uninsured Risks. The Company’s crude oil and natural gas operations are subject to all operating hazards and risks normally incident to drilling for and producing crude oil and natural gas, such as encountering unusual formations and pressures, blow-outs, environmental pollution and personal injury. The Company maintains such insurance coverage as it believes to be appropriate taking into account the size of the Company and its operations. Losses can occur from an uninsurable risk or in amounts in excess of existing insurance coverage. The occurrence of an event which is not insured or not fully insured could have an adverse impact on the Company’s revenues and earnings.

In certain instances, the Company may continue to engage in exploration and development operations through drilling programs formed with non-industry investors. In addition, the Company will conduct a significant portion of its operations with other parties in connection with the drilling operations conducted on properties in which it has an interest. In these arrangements, all joint interest parties, including the Company, may be fully liable for their proportionate share of all costs of such operations. Further, if any joint interest party defaults on its obligations to pay its share of costs, the other joint interest parties may be required to fund the deficiency until, if ever, it can be collected from the defaulting party. As a result of the foregoing or similar oilfield circumstances, the Company could become liable for amounts significantly in excess of amounts originally anticipated to be expended in connection with such operations. In addition, financial difficulty for an operator of oil and gas properties could result in the Company’s and other joint interest owners’ interests in properties and the wells and equipment located thereon becoming subject to liens and claims of creditors, notwithstanding the

-9-

fact that non-defaulting joint interest owners and the Company may have previously paid to the operator the amounts necessary to pay their share of such costs and expenses.

Hydraulic Fracturing. Many of our exploration and production operations depend on the use of hydraulic fracturing to enhance production from oil and gas wells. This technology involves the injection of fluids—usually consisting mostly of water but typically including small amounts of several chemical additives—as well as sand into a well under high pressure in order to create fractures in the formation that allow oil or gas to flow more freely to the wellbore. Most of our wells would not be economical without the use of hydraulic fracturing to stimulate production from the well. Due to concerns raised relating to potential impacts of hydraulic fracturing on groundwater quality, legislative and regulatory efforts at the federal level and in some states have been initiated to render permitting and compliance requirements more stringent for hydraulic fracturing or prohibit the activity altogether. Such efforts could have an adverse effect on crude oil and natural gas production activities.

Conflicts of Interest. The Partnership Agreement grants the General Partner broad discretionary authority to make decisions on matters such as the Company’s acquisition of or participation in a drilling prospect or a producing property. To limit the General Partner’s management discretion might prevent it from managing the Company properly. However, because the business activities of the affiliates of the General Partner on the one hand and the Company on the other hand are the same, potential conflicts of interest are likely to exist, and it is not possible to completely mitigate such conflicts.

The Partnership Agreement contains certain restrictions designed to mitigate, to the extent practicable, these conflicts of interest. The agreement restricts, among other things, (i) the cost at which the General Partner or its affiliates may acquire properties from or sell properties to the Company; (ii) loans between the General Partner, its affiliates and the Company, and interest and other charges incurred in connection therewith; and (iii) the use and handling of the Company’s funds by the General Partner.

Employees. As of March 15, 2012, the Company had 20 full-time and 4 part-time employees. These employees primarily are engaged in the following areas of business operations: six each in field operations and accounting, five in land and lease acquisition and seven in administration.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

Set forth below is certain information regarding the oil and gas properties of the Company which are located in the Appalachian Basin of Ohio and Western Pennsylvania.

In the following discussion, “gross” refers to the total acres or wells in which the Company has a working interest and “net” refers to gross acres or wells multiplied by the Company’s percentage of working interests therein. Because royalty interests held by the Company will not affect the Company’s working interests in its properties, neither gross nor net acres or wells reflect such royalty interests.

Natural Gas and Crude Oil Reserves. Proved reserves are the estimated quantities of crude oil and natural gas, which, by an analysis of geological and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic conditions, operating methods and government regulations (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. The estimated reserves include reserves attributable to the Company’s direct ownership interests in crude oil and natural gas properties as well as the reserves attributable to the Company’s percentage interests in crude oil and natural gas properties owned through joint ventures. All of the reserves are generally located in the Appalachian Basin region of Ohio and Western Pennsylvania. For the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company based its estimates of proved reserves on the 12-month un-weighted average price of the first-day-of-the-month price for each calendar month of 2011 and 2010 and then applied any basis adjustments specifically applicable to each oil and gas property based on location and pricing details. The natural gas prices used in the estimation of proved reserves, excluding the effect of contractual obligations, were $4.24 and $4.56 at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and the crude oil prices used in the estimation of proved reserves were $90.81 and $72.64 at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Reserve estimates are imprecise and may change as additional information becomes available. Furthermore, estimates of natural gas and crude oil reserves are projections based on engineering data. There are uncertainties inherent in the interpretation of this data as well as the projection of future rates of production and the timing of development expenditures. Reservoir engineering is a subjective process of estimating underground accumulations of natural gas and crude oil that cannot be measured in an exact way and the accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of the quality of available data and of engineering and geological interpretation and judgment.

The preparation of the Company’s natural gas and crude oil reserve estimates was completed in accordance with our prescribed internal control procedures, which include verification of input data delivered to the Company’s third-party reserve specialist, as well as a multi-functional management review. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company retained Wright & Company, Inc. (“Wright & Company”), a third-party, independent petroleum engineering firm, to prepare a report of proved reserves. The reserves report included a detailed review of all of the Company’s crude oil and natural gas properties. Wright & Company’s evaluation was based on more than 35 years of experience in the estimation of and evaluation of petroleum reserves, specified economic parameters, operating conditions, and government

regulations applicable as of December 31, 2011. The Wright & Company report, including the qualifications of the chief technical person responsible for the report, was prepared in accordance with generally accepted petroleum engineering and evaluation principles and is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Reserves Reported to Other Agencies. There were no estimates of total, proved net oil or gas reserves filed with or included in reports to any other federal authority or agency during 2011 or 2010.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND

ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

Market

There is currently no established public trading market for the Units. At the present time, the Company does not intend to list any of the Units for trading on any exchange or otherwise take any action to establish any market for the Units. As of March 15, 2012, there were 5,616,422 Units held by 1,390 holders of record.

Distribution History

The Company commenced operations with the consummation of the Exchange Offer in February 1991. Management’s stated intention was to make quarterly cash distributions equal to $0.125 per Unit (or $0.50 per Unit on an annualized basis) for the first eight quarters following the closing date of the Exchange Offer. The Company has paid a quarterly distribution every quarter since July 1991. The Company paid total cash distributions of $2.25 and $2.50 per Unit during 2011 and 2010, respectively. Based upon the current number of Units outstanding, the aggregate value of a quarterly distribution of $0.50 per Unit made to our holders of record (“Holders”) would amount to approximately $2,842,000. The Company made a distribution of $0.50 per Unit in January 2012 and currently intends to make a distribution of $0.375 per Unit in April 2012 and additional quarterly distributions in July and October 2012. The Company may also make a special distribution relative to the Disposition described in the section entitled “Sale of Deep Rights” appearing on page 2 herein. The amount or timing of such special distribution, if any, has not yet been determined by the Company.

Repurchase Right

The Partnership Agreement provides that beginning in 1992 and annually thereafter the Company offers to repurchase for cash up to 10% of the then outstanding Units, to the extent Holders offer Units to the Company for repurchase (the “Repurchase Right”). The Repurchase Right entitles any Holder(s), between May 1 and June 30 of each year, to notify the Company that the Holder(s) elects to exercise the Repurchase Right and have the Company acquire certain or all Units. The price to be paid for any such Units is calculated based on the method provided for in the Partnership Agreement. The Company accepted an aggregate of 4,890 and 5,968 of its Units of limited partnership interest at a price of $8.23 and $6.86 per Unit pursuant to the terms of the Company’s Offers to Purchase dated April 29, 2011 and April 30, 2010, respectively. See Note 4 in the Company’s financial statements for additional information on the Repurchase Right.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

Not a required disclosure for a Smaller Reporting Company.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF

OPERATIONS

General

The Company was organized in September 1990 as a limited partnership under the laws of the State of Delaware. Everflow Management Limited, LLC, an Ohio limited liability company, is the general partner of the Company. The Company was formed to engage in the business of oil and gas acquisition, exploration, development and production through a proposed consolidation of the business and oil and gas properties of EEI, and the oil and gas properties owned by certain limited partnerships and working interest programs managed or operated by the Programs.

Effective February 15, 1991, pursuant to the Exchange Offer to acquire the EEI shares and the Interests in exchange for Units of the Company’s limited partnership interest, the Company acquired the Interests and the EEI Shares and EEI became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

The General Partner is a limited liability company. The members of the General Partner are Everflow Management Corporation, an Ohio Corporation (“EMC”); two individuals who are officers and directors of EEI, William A. Siskovic and Brian A. Staebler; one individual who serves as the Chairman of the Board of EEI, Thomas L. Korner; one individual who is an employee of the Company, Richard M. Jones; and one New York limited liability company that is co-managed by an individual who is a director of EEI, Robert F. Sykes, and owned by the four adult children of Mr. Sykes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Financial Position

The following table summarizes the Company’s financial position at December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010:


	December 31, 2011					December 31, 2010
	Amount		%			Amount		%
	(Amounts in Thousands)					(Amounts in Thousands)

Working capital	$	20,936		34	%	$	20,086		31	%
Property and equipment (net)		40,901		65			43,795		68
Other		405		1			487		1

Total	$	62,242		100	%	$	64,368		100	%


Deferred income taxes	$	259		—	%	$	284		—	%
Long-term liabilities		5,823		10			5,499		9
Partners’ equity		56,160		90			58,585		91

Total	$	62,242		100	%	$	64,368		100	%

Working capital surplus of $20.9 million as of December 31, 2011 represented a $850,000 increase from December 31, 2010 due primarily to an increase in cash and equivalents of $1.6 million and decrease in accounts payable of $900,000, offset somewhat by a decrease in accounts receivable from production of $1.1 million. Accounts payable decreased $900,000 primarily due to decreases in payables due to joint venture partners and for drilling costs. Accounts receivable from production decreased $1.1 million primarily due to less natural gas volumes produced and lower natural gas prices received in the fourth quarter of 2011 as compared to natural gas volumes produced and natural gas prices received in the fourth quarter of 2010.

The Company had a revolving credit facility with Bank One, N.A. that expired in 2003, and has had no borrowings since that time. The Company expects to have more than $5 million of cash available to fund the Repurchase Right in 2012. As a result, additional financing will not likely be required in the event the Repurchase Right is fully subscribed. In the event that additional financing is necessary to fund the Repurchase Right, the Company would likely enter into a commitment for a new line of credit. We cannot provide any assurance as to the availability of any such line of credit under current market conditions. The Company repurchased 4,890 Units at a price of $8.23 per Unit on June 30, 2011.

Cash Flows from Operating, Investing and Financing Activities

The Company generated almost all of its cash sources from operating activities. During the years ended 2011 and 2010, cash provided by operations was used primarily to fund the development of additional oil and gas properties and distributions to Unitholders.

Note:

All items in the previous table are calculated as a percentage of total cash sources. Total cash sources include the following items, if positive: cash flow from operations before working capital changes, changes in working capital, net cash provided by investing activities and net cash provided by financing activities, plus any decrease in cash and equivalents.

-19-

As the above table indicates, the Company’s cash flow from operations before working capital changes during 2011 and 2010 represented 95% of total cash sources. Changes in working capital other than cash and equivalents increased cash by $806,000 and $1.1 million during 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase in 2011 was primarily the result of a decrease in accounts receivable from production resulting primarily from less natural gas volumes produced and lower natural gas prices received in the fourth quarter of 2011 as compared to natural gas volumes produced and natural gas prices received in the fourth quarter of 2010, as well as a decrease in other current assets resulting primarily from well equipment inventory being used in the drilling of oil and gas properties during 2011. The effects of the decreases in accounts receivable from production and other current assets were offset somewhat by a decrease in accounts payable due to joint venture partners. The primary reasons for the increase in 2010 were due to a decrease in accounts receivable from production resulting from lower natural gas prices in the fourth quarter of 2010 as compared to natural gas prices in 2009 and an increase in accounts payable due primarily to increases in payables due for production, joint venture partners and drilling costs. The effects of the decrease in accounts receivable from production and increase in accounts payable were offset somewhat by an increase to other current assets and a decrease in accrued expenses resulting primarily from a decrease in the current portion of asset retirement obligations and less federal, state and local taxes due.

The Company’s cash flows used by investing activities decreased $1.8 million, or 44%, during 2011 as compared with 2010. The decrease in 2011 was primarily the result of a decrease in the purchase of property and equipment. This decrease was partially offset by a decrease in proceeds received from deferred revenue. The purchase of property and equipment decreased $3.0 million, or 54%, during 2011 as compared with 2010. The Company did not receive any proceeds from deferred revenue in 2011, whereas $1 million of proceeds from deferred revenue were received in 2010 for the Company’s November 2010 sale of its deep property rights.

The Company’s cash flows used by financing activities decreased $1.4 million, or 10%, during 2011 as compared with 2010, which was primarily the result of less distributions made to Unitholders.

The Company’s ending cash and equivalents balance of $21.2 million at December 31, 2011, as well as on-going monthly operating cash flows, should be adequate to meet short-term cash requirements. The Company has established a quarterly distribution and management believes the payment of such distributions will continue at least through 2012. The Company has paid a quarterly distribution every quarter since July 1991. The Company made a distribution of $2.8 million in January 2012 and currently intends to distribute an additional $2.1 million in April 2012 from existing cash and equivalents.

Capital expenditures for the development of oil and gas properties decreased during 2011 as compared to 2010. The Company drilled or participated in the drilling of 12 drill sites in 2011. The Company’s share of these drill sites amounts to 3.78 net developed properties. The Company’s share of proved gas reserves decreased by 2.2 BCF, or 6%, between December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, while proved oil reserves increased by 14,000 barrels, or 2%, between December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010. The Company continues to

-20-

develop primarily natural gas fields, as represented by the discovery of 421,000 MCF of natural gas versus 17,000 barrels of crude oil during 2011. The Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows of the Company’s reserves decreased by $696,000 between December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2011. The primary reasons for this decrease were due to sales of crude oil and natural gas during 2011 and decreases in natural gas prices and the related downward revisions in quantities of natural gas reserves between December 31, 2010 and 2011. These factors were offset somewhat by the effect of new discoveries, increases in crude oil prices and the related upward revisions in quantities of crude oil reserves between December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2011, as well as accretion of the December 31, 2010 discount. Management believes the Company will likely drill or participate in the drilling of less than 10 net wells during 2012.

The Partnership Agreement provides that the Company annually offers to repurchase for cash up to 10% of the then outstanding Units, to the extent Unitholders offer Units to the Company for repurchase pursuant to the Repurchase Right. The Repurchase Right entitles any Unitholder, between May 1 and June 30 of each year, to notify the Company of his or her election to exercise the Repurchase Right and have the Company acquire such Units. The price to be paid for any such Units will be calculated based upon the audited financial statements of the Company as of December 31 of the year prior to the year in which the Repurchase Right is to be effective and independently prepared reserve reports. The price per Unit will be equal to 66% of the adjusted book value of the Company allocable to the Units, divided by the number of Units outstanding at the beginning of the year in which the applicable Repurchase Right is to be effective less all Interim Cash Distributions received by a Unitholder. The adjusted book value is calculated by adding partner’s equity, the Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows and the tax effect included in the Standardized Measure and subtracting from that sum the carrying value of oil and gas properties, net of undeveloped lease costs. If more than 10% of the then outstanding Units are tendered during any period during which the Repurchase Right is to be effective, the Investor’s Units so tendered shall be prorated for purposes of calculating the actual number of Units to be acquired during any such period. The Company repurchased 4,890 and 5,968 Units during 2011 and 2010 pursuant to the Repurchase Right at a price of $8.23 and $6.86 per Unit, respectively. The Repurchase Right to be conducted in 2012 is expected to result in Unitholders being offered a price of $8.29 per Unit. The Company believes existing cash flows will be sufficient to fund the 2012 offering pursuant to the Repurchase Right if fully subscribed.

Results of Operations

The following table and discussion is a review of the results of operations of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010. All items in the table are calculated as a percentage of total revenues. This table should be read in conjunction with the discussions of each item below:


	Year Ended December 31,
	2011			2010
Revenues:
Oil and gas sales		97	%		98	%
Well management and operating		3			2

Total Revenues		100			100
Expenses:
Production costs		20			16
Well management and operating		1			1
Depreciation, depletion and amortization		20			22
Accretion expense		2			1

General and administrative expense		10			9
Other income		—			(1	)

Total Expenses		55			62

Net income		45	%		38	%

Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2011 decreased $4.2 million, or 16%, compared to the same period in 2010. This decrease was due primarily to a decrease in oil and gas sales during 2011 compared with 2010.

Oil and gas sales decreased $4.2 million, or 16%, from 2010 to 2011. This decrease was primarily the result of lower natural gas prices and decreased natural gas production volumes, offset somewhat by higher crude oil prices and increased crude oil production volumes. The average price received per MCF of natural gas decreased from $6.92 in 2010 to $5.30 in 2011. The average price received per BBL of crude oil increased from $72.49 in 2010 to $89.20 in 2011. The Company’s natural gas production decreased by 130,000 MCF, or 4%, while crude oil production increased by 5,000 BBLS, or 8%, from 2010 to 2011. Natural gas sales accounted for 72% and 82% of total oil and gas sales in 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Production costs increased $148,000, or 3%, from 2010 to 2011. The primary reason for this increase was due to higher costs charged by third party operators in association with the operations of their wells.

-22-

Depreciation, depletion and amortization (“DD&A”) decreased $1.4 million, or 24%, from 2010 to 2011. The primary reason for this decrease relates to the DD&A and write downs/impairment on the Company’s western Pennsylvania oil and gas properties recognized from 2008-2010, which significantly reduced the net capitalized costs (depletable bases) for such properties.

Accretion expense increased $48,000, or 12%, from 2010 to 2011. The primary reason for this increase was due to the discount factor being applied to larger liabilities during 2011 as compared to 2010.

Write down/impairment and abandonment of oil and gas properties decreased $3.2 million, or 87%, from 2010 to 2011. In recent years, the Company had expanded its drilling and development geographically into western Pennsylvania, an area in which it previously had only minimal activity. The drilling and development in this area was conducted through a joint venture with another oil and gas operator with which the Company had previous experience. During 2007 and 2008, the Company invested more than $15 million in western Pennsylvania through this venture. The results were less than expected and since 2008 the Company has ceased investing in this venture. The combination of development costs exceeding estimates and disappointing results in this venture had caused the Company to record $3.2 million of non-cash impairment write downs during 2010 that was directly attributable to these western Pennsylvania properties (the Company recognized total write down/impairment and abandonment of oil and gas properties of $3.7 million in 2010). The Company did not recognize any impairment write downs relative to these western Pennsylvania properties during 2011.

General and administrative expenses decreased $62,000, or 3%, from 2010 to 2011. The primary reason for this decrease is due to less miscellaneous overhead expenses associated with ongoing administration.

Other income amounted to $100,000 and $224,000 in 2011 and 2010, respectively. Other income is primarily interest income on the Company’s cash and equivalents balances and gain on sales of property and equipment.

The Company is not a tax paying entity, and the net taxable income or loss, other than the taxable income or loss attributable to EEI, is allocated directly to its respective partners.

Net income increased $134,000, or 1%, from 2010 to 2011. This increase was primarily the result of decreases in DD&A and write down/impairment and abandonment of oil and gas properties, offset somewhat by decreases in oil and gas sales and other income and an increase in production costs. Net income represented 45% and 38% of total revenues during the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Application of Critical Accounting Policies

Property and Equipment. The Company uses the successful efforts method of accounting for oil and gas exploration and production activities. Under successful efforts, costs to acquire mineral interests in oil and gas properties and to drill and equip development wells are initially capitalized. Costs of development wells (on properties the Company has no further interest in) that do not find proved reserves and geological and geophysical costs are expensed. The Company has not participated in exploratory drilling and owns no interest in unproved properties.

Capitalized costs of proved properties, after considering estimated dismantlement and abandonment costs and estimated salvage values, are amortized by the unit-of-production method based upon estimated proved developed reserves. Depletion, depreciation and amortization on proved properties amounted to $4.5 million and $5.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

On sale or retirement of a unit of a proved property (which generally constitutes the amortization base), the cost and related accumulated depreciation, depletion, amortization and write down are eliminated from the property accounts, and the resultant gain or loss is recognized.

The Company evaluates its crude oil and natural gas properties for impairment annually. Generally accepted accounting principles require that long-lived assets (including crude oil and natural gas properties) and certain identifiable intangibles be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company utilizes a field by field basis for assessing impairment of its oil and gas properties.

Management of the Company believes that the accounting estimate related to crude oil and natural gas property impairment is a “critical accounting estimate” because it is highly susceptible to change from year to year. It requires the use of crude oil and natural gas reserve estimates that are directly impacted by future crude oil and natural gas prices and future production volumes. Actual crude oil and natural gas prices have fluctuated in the past and are likely to do so in the future.

Crude oil and natural gas reserve estimates are prepared annually based on existing contractual arrangements and current market conditions. Any increases in estimated future cash flows would have no impact on the reported value of the Company’s crude oil and natural gas properties. In contrast, decreases in estimated future cash flows could require the recognition of an impairment loss equal to the difference between the estimated fair value of the crude oil and natural gas properties (determined by calculating the discounted value of the estimated future cash flows) and the carrying amount of the crude oil and natural gas properties. Any impairment loss would reduce property and equipment as well as total assets of the Company. An impairment loss would also decrease net income.

-24-

Asset Retirement Obligations. The Company follows generally accepted accounting principles which require the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation to be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. For the Company, these obligations include dismantlement, plugging and abandonment of crude oil and natural gas wells and associated pipelines and equipment. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. The liability is accreted to its then present value each period, and the capitalized cost is depleted over the estimated useful life of the related asset.

The estimated liability is based on historical experience in dismantling, plugging and abandoning wells, estimated remaining lives of those wells based on reserves estimates, estimates of the external cost to dismantle, plug and abandon the wells in the future and federal and state regulatory requirements. The liability is discounted using an assumed credit-adjusted risk-free interest rate. Revisions to the liability will likely occur due to: changes in estimates of dismantlement, plugging and abandonment costs; changes in estimated remaining lives of the wells; changes in federal or state regulations regarding dismantlement, plugging and abandonment requirements; and other factors.

The Company has no assets legally restricted for purposes of settling its asset retirement obligations. The Company has determined that there are no other material retirement obligations associated with tangible long-lived assets.

Revenue Recognition. The Company recognizes crude oil and natural gas revenues when production is sold to a purchaser at a fixed or determinable price, when delivery has occurred, title and risk of loss have transferred to the purchaser, and collectability of the revenue is reasonably assured. The Company utilizes the sales method to account for gas production volume imbalances. Under this method, revenue is recognized only when gas is produced and sold on the Company’s behalf. The Company had no material gas imbalances at December 31, 2011 or 2010. Other revenue is recognized at the time services are rendered, the Company has a contractual right to such revenue and collection is reasonably assured.

The Company participates (and may act as drilling contractor) with unaffiliated joint venture partners and employees in the drilling, development and operation of jointly owned crude oil and natural gas properties. Each owner, including the Company, has an undivided interest in the jointly owned property(ies). Generally, the joint venture partners and employees participate on the same drilling/development cost basis as the Company and, therefore, no revenue, expense or income is recognized on the drilling and development of the properties. The Company receives reimbursement of administrative costs associated with preparation, drilling and development of jointly owned crude oil and natural gas properties from certain joint venture partners. Accounts and notes receivable from joint venture partners and employees consist principally of drilling and development costs the Company has advanced or incurred on behalf of joint venture partners and employees. Accounts payable to joint venture partners consist principally of advances received from joint venture partners for drilling and development costs not yet incurred. The Company earns and receives monthly management and operating fees from certain joint venture partners and employees after the properties are completed and placed into production.

Commodity Pricing, Risk Management Activities and Inflation

The Company’s revenues, operating results, financial condition and ability to borrow funds or obtain additional capital depend substantially on prevailing prices for natural gas and crude oil. Declines in oil and gas prices may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity, ability to obtain financing and operating results. Lower oil and gas prices also may reduce the amount of oil and gas that we can produce economically. Historically, oil and gas prices and markets have been volatile, with prices fluctuating widely, and they are likely to continue to be volatile. Depressed prices in the future would have a negative impact on our future financial results. In particular, substantially lower prices would significantly reduce revenue and could potentially trigger impairment under generally accepted accounting principles. Because the Company’s reserves are predominantly natural gas, changes in natural gas prices may have a more significant impact on our financial results.

The majority of our production is sold at market responsive prices. Generally, if the related commodity index falls, the price that we receive for our production will also decline. Therefore, the amount of revenue that we realize is partially determined by factors beyond our control. However, management has in recent years and may in the future mitigate this price risk on a portion of our anticipated production by shutting-in wells during certain periods of depressed natural gas prices in an attempt to hold production for the future when natural gas prices have recovered. Under this arrangement, there is also a risk that natural gas prices will not recover and that the production of future volumes will be sold at the same depressed or potentially further depressed natural gas prices.

While the cost of operations is affected by inflation, crude oil and natural gas prices have fluctuated in recent years and generally have not matched inflation. The price of crude oil in the Appalachian Basin has ranged from a low of $8.50 per barrel in December 1998 to a high of $138.00 in July 2008. As of March 15, 2012, $100.66 per barrel was the posted field price in the Appalachian Basin area, the Company’s principal area of operation.

Natural gas prices have also fluctuated more recently. The Company’s average price of natural gas during 2011 was $5.30, a decrease of $1.62 as compared to 2010. The Company’s average price of natural gas during 2010 was $6.92, a decrease of $.58 as compared to 2009. The price of natural gas in the Appalachian Basin increased significantly throughout 2005 and reached a high of more than $14.00 per MCF in October and November 2005. More recently, the price for Henry Hub Natural Gas on the NYMEX settled for the month of March 2012 at $2.45 per MCF. The Company’s natural gas is currently sold under short-term contracts where the price is determined using current NYMEX prices. The Company at times will lock-in a monthly price over certain time periods. Excess natural gas production above locked-in quantities is sold at a price tied to the then current monthly NYMEX settled price.

The Company’s sales are significantly impacted by pricing instability in the crude oil and natural gas markets. One of the consequences of these pricing fluctuations is evident in the Company’s Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows increasing from $104.7 million at December 31, 2006 to $133.5 million at December 31, 2007, decreasing to $88.6 million at December 31, 2008, decreasing to $49.7 million at December 31,

2009, increasing to $61.2 million at December 31, 2010, and decreasing to $60.6 million at December 31, 2011.

The Company’s Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows decreased by $696,000 from December 31, 2010 to December 31, 2011. A reconciliation of the Changes in the Standardized Measures of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows is included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Partners

Everflow Eastern Partners, L. P.

Canfield, Ohio

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Everflow Eastern Partners, L. P. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of income, partners’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. Everflow Eastern Partners, L.P.’s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Everflow Eastern Partners, L. P. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1.

Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization—Everflow Eastern Partners, L.P. (“Everflow”) is a Delaware limited partnership which was organized in September 1990 to engage in the business of oil and gas acquisition, exploration, development and production. Everflow was formed to consolidate the business and oil and gas properties of Everflow Eastern, Inc. (“EEI”) and subsidiaries and the oil and gas properties owned by certain limited partnership and working interest programs managed or sponsored by EEI (“EEI Programs” or the “Programs”).

Everflow Management Limited, LLC (“EML”), an Ohio limited liability company, is the general partner of Everflow and, as such, is authorized to perform all acts necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes and conduct of the business of Everflow. The members of EML are Everflow Management Corporation (“EMC”); two individuals who are officers and directors of EEI and employees of Everflow; one individual who is the Chairman of the Board of EEI; one individual who is an employee of Everflow; and one private limited liability company co-managed by an individual who is a director of EEI. EMC is an Ohio corporation formed in September 1990 and is the managing member of EML. EML holds no assets other than its general partner’s interest in Everflow. In addition, EML has no separate operations or role apart from its role as the Company’s general partner.

In February 2010, EML entered into an Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership, which amended the prior Partnership Agreement to authorize the Company to grant options to repurchase certain Units to select officers and employees (see Note 8).

Principles of Consolidation—The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Everflow, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, including EEI, and interests with joint venture partners (collectively, the “Company”), which are accounted for under the proportional consolidation method. All significant accounts and transactions between the consolidated entities have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“generally accepted accounting principles” or “GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates impacting the Company’s financial statements include revenue and expense accruals and oil and gas reserve quantities. In the oil and gas industry, and especially as related to the Company’s natural gas sales, the processing of actual transactions generally occurs 60-90 days after the month of delivery of its product. Consequently, accounts receivable from production and oil and gas sales are recorded using estimated production volumes and market or contract prices. Differences between estimated and actual amounts are recorded in subsequent period’s financial results. As is typical in the oil and gas industry, a significant portion of the Company’s accounts receivable from production and oil and gas sales consists of unbilled receivables. Oil and gas reserve quantities are utilized in the calculation of depreciation, depletion and amortization and the impairment of oil and gas wells and also impact the timing and costs associated with asset

Use of Estimates (Continued)

retirement obligations. The Company’s estimates, especially those related to oil and gas reserves, could change in the near term and could significantly impact the Company’s results of operations and financial position.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments—The fair values of cash and equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, accounts payable and other short-term obligations approximate their carrying values because of the short maturity of these financial instruments. The carrying values of the Company’s long-term obligations approximate their fair value. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, rates available to the Company at the balance sheet dates are used to estimate the fair value of existing obligations.

Cash and Equivalents—The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains, at various financial institutions, cash and equivalents which may exceed federally insured amounts and which may, at times, significantly exceed balance sheet amounts due to float.

Property and Equipment—The Company uses the successful efforts method of accounting for oil and gas exploration and production activities. Under successful efforts, costs to acquire mineral interests in oil and gas properties, to drill and equip development wells and related asset retirement costs are capitalized. Costs of development wells (on properties the Company has no further interest in) that do not find proved reserves and geological and geophysical costs are expensed. The Company has not participated in exploratory drilling and owns no interest in unproved properties.

Capitalized costs of proved properties, after considering estimated dismantlement and abandonment costs and estimated salvage values, are amortized by the unit-of-production method based upon estimated proved developed reserves. Depletion, depreciation and amortization on proved properties amounted to $4,446,311 and $5,841,396 during 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Generally accepted accounting principles require that long-lived assets (including oil and gas properties) and certain identifiable intangibles be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company, at least annually, reviews its proved oil and gas properties (on a field by field basis) for impairment by comparing the carrying value of its properties to the properties’ undiscounted estimated future net cash flows. Estimates of future oil and gas prices, operating

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Property and Equipment (Continued)

costs, and production are utilized in determining undiscounted future net cash flows. The estimated future production of oil and gas reserves is based upon the Company’s independent reserve engineer’s estimate of proved reserves which includes assumptions regarding field decline rates and future prices and costs. For properties where the carrying value exceeds undiscounted future net cash flows, the Company recognizes as impairment the difference between the carrying value and fair market value of the properties. The Company determines fair market value as the properties’ discounted estimated future net cash flows. The Company wrote down oil and gas properties by approximately $486,000 and $3,710,200 during 2011 and 2010, respectively, to provide for impairment and abandonment on certain of its oil and gas properties.

Additions to proved properties include changes to accounts payable related to property and equipment (see Note 2), and asset retirement obligations (see Note 1.G).

Pipeline and support equipment and other corporate property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated principally on the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives (pipeline and support equipment—10 to 15 years, other corporate equipment—3 to 7 years, other corporate property—building and improvements with a cost of $1,527,888—39 to 40 years). Depreciation on pipeline and support equipment amounted to $49,248 and $45,567 for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Depreciation on other corporate property and equipment, included in general and administrative expense, amounted to $84,792 and $82,055 for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Maintenance and repairs of property and equipment are expensed as incurred. Major renewals and improvements are capitalized, and the assets replaced are retired.

Asset Retirement Obligations—Generally accepted accounting principles require the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation to be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. For the Company, these obligations include dismantlement, plugging and abandonment of oil and gas wells and associated pipelines and equipment. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. The liability is accreted to its then present value each period, and the capitalized cost is depleted over the estimated useful life of the related asset.

Asset Retirement Obligations (Continued)

will likely occur due to: changes in estimates of dismantlement, plugging and abandonment costs; changes in estimated remaining lives of the wells; changes in federal or state regulations regarding plugging and abandonment requirements; and other factors.

The Company has no assets legally restricted for purposes of settling asset retirement obligations. The Company has determined that there are no other material retirement obligations associated with tangible long-lived assets.

The schedule below is a reconciliation of the Company’s liability for the years ended December 31:


	2011			2010
Beginning of period	$	5,661,740		$	5,379,368
Liabilities incurred		20,331			39,699
Liabilities settled		(13,530	)		(157,466	)
Accretion expense		447,926			400,139

End of period	$	6,116,467		$	5,661,740

The current portion of asset retirement obligations of $293,000 and $163,000 at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, is included in accrued expenses in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

Revenue Recognition—The Company recognizes oil and gas revenues when production is sold to a purchaser at a fixed or determinable price, when delivery has occurred, title and risk of loss have transferred to the purchaser, and collectibility of the revenue is reasonably assured. The Company utilizes the sales method to account for gas production volume imbalances. Under this method, revenue is recognized only when gas is produced and sold on the Company’s behalf. The Company had no material gas imbalances at December 31, 2011 or 2010. Other revenue is recognized at the time services are rendered, the Company has a contractual right to such revenue and collection is reasonably assured.

EVERFLOW EASTERN PARTNERS, L. P.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1.

Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Revenue Recognition (Continued)

development costs the Company has advanced or incurred on behalf of joint venture partners and employees (see Note 7). Accounts payable to joint venture partners consist principally of advances received from joint venture partners for drilling and development costs not yet incurred. The Company earns and receives monthly management and operating fees from certain joint venture partners and employees after the properties are completed and placed into production.

Income Taxes—Everflow is not a tax-paying entity and the net taxable income or loss, other than the taxable income or loss allocable to EEI, which is a C corporation owned by Everflow, will be allocated directly to its respective partners. The Company is not able to determine the net difference between the tax bases and the reported amounts of Everflow’s assets and liabilities due to separate elections that were made by owners of the working interests and limited partnership interests that comprised Programs.

As referred to in Note 5, EEI accounts for income taxes under generally accepted accounting principles, which require income taxes be provided for all items (as they relate to EEI) in the Consolidated Statements of Income regardless of the period when such items are reported for income tax purposes. Therefore, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and tax basis of certain of EEI’s assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The impact on deferred taxes of changes in tax rates and laws, if any, is reflected in the financial statements in the period of enactment.

The Company believes that it has appropriate support for any tax positions taken and, as such, does not have any uncertain tax positions that are material to the financial statements. The Company’s tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service, as well as various state and local taxing authorities, generally for three years after they are filed.

Allocation of Income and Per Unit Data—Under the terms of the limited partnership agreement, initially, 99% of revenues and costs were allocated to the unitholders (the limited partners) and 1% of revenues and costs were allocated to the general partner. The allocation changes as unitholders elect to exercise the repurchase right (see Note 4).

Earnings and distributions per limited partner Unit have been computed based on the weighted average number of Units outstanding during the year for each year presented. Average outstanding Units for earnings and distributions per Unit calculations amount to 5,617,645 and 5,620,359 in 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Subsequent Events—Everflow paid a dividend in January 2012 of $0.50 per Unit. The distribution amounted to approximately $2,842,000.

The Company closed on the sale of deep rights acreage in February 2012 for cash consideration net to the Company’s interest of approximately $35 million (see Note 10).

Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

New Accounting Standards—In July 2010, an accounting standard update was issued on “Disclosure about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses.” The update requires new disclosures about financing receivables and related credit risk on a disaggregated basis, excluding short-term trade accounts receivables. The disclosures are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years ending on or after December 15, 2010. The Company adopted this update on December 31, 2010 and it did not have a material impact on the financial statements.

The Company has reviewed all other recently issued accounting standards in order to determine their effects, if any, on the consolidated financial statements. Based on that review, the Company believes that none of these standards will have a significant effect on current or future earnings or operations.

Credit Facilities and Long-Term Debt

The Company had a revolving line of credit that expired in 2003, and has had no borrowings since that time. The Company anticipates entering into a commitment for a new line of credit agreement, in the event funds are needed for the purpose of funding the annual repurchase right (see Note 4). The new line of credit would be utilized in the event the Company receives tenders pursuant to the repurchase right in excess of cash on hand. The Company would be exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates if it funds its future operations through long-term or short-term borrowings.

Note 4.

Partners’ Equity

Units represent limited partnership interests in Everflow. The Units are transferable subject only to the approval of any transfer by EML and to the laws governing the transfer of securities. The Units are not listed for trading on any securities exchange nor are they quoted in the automated quotation system of a registered securities association. However, unitholders have an opportunity to require Everflow to repurchase their Units pursuant to the repurchase right.

Under the terms of the limited partnership agreement, initially, 99% of revenues and costs were allocated to the unitholders (the limited partners) and 1% of revenues and costs were allocated to the general partner. Such allocation has changed and will change in the future due to unitholders electing to exercise the repurchase right.

The partnership agreement provides that Everflow will repurchase for cash up to 10% of the then outstanding Units, to the extent unitholders offer Units to Everflow for repurchase pursuant to the repurchase right. The repurchase right entitles any unitholder, between May 1 and June 30 of each year, to notify Everflow that the unitholder elects to exercise the repurchase right and have Everflow acquire certain or all Units. The price to be paid for any such Units is calculated based upon the audited financial statements of the Company as of December 31 of the year prior to the year in which the repurchase right is to be effective and independently prepared reserve reports. The price per Unit equals 66% of the adjusted book value of the Company allocable to the Units, divided by the number of Units outstanding at the beginning of the year in which the applicable repurchase right is to be effective less all interim cash distributions received by a unitholder. The adjusted book value is calculated by adding partners’ equity, the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows and the tax effect included in the standardized measure and subtracting from that sum the carrying value of oil and gas properties (net of undeveloped lease costs). If more than 10% of the then outstanding Units are tendered during any period during which the repurchase right is to be effective, the investors’ Units tendered shall be prorated for purposes of calculating the actual number of Units to be acquired during any such period. The price associated with the repurchase right, based upon the December 31, 2011 calculation, is estimated to be $8.29 per Unit, net of the distributions made in January 2012 ($0.50 per Unit) and expected to be made in April 2012 ($0.375 per Unit).

Provision for Income Taxes (Continued)

As referred to in Note 1, EEI accounts for current and deferred income taxes under the provisions of generally accepted accounting principles. Items giving rise to deferred taxes consist of temporary differences arising from differences in financial reporting and tax reporting methods for EEI’s proved properties. At December 31, 2011 and 2010, these deferred tax items resulted in deferred tax liabilities of $259,000 and $284,000, respectively.

Note 6.

Retirement Plan

The Company has a defined contribution plan pursuant to Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code for all employees who have reached the age of 21 and completed one year of service. The Company matches employees’ contributions to the 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan as annually determined by EMC’s Board of Directors. Additionally, the plan has a profit sharing component which provides for contributions to the plan at the discretion of EMC’s Board of Directors. Amounts contributed to the plan vest immediately. The Company’s total matching and profit sharing contributions to the plan amounted to approximately $214,000 and $213,300 for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Note 7.

Related Party Transactions

The Company’s Officers, Directors, affiliates and certain employees have frequently participated, and will likely continue to participate in the future, as working interest owners in wells in which the Company has an interest. Frequently, the Company has loaned the funds necessary for certain employees to participate in the drilling and development of such wells. Initial terms of the unsecured loans call for repayment of all principal and accrued interest at the end of four years, however, the loan amounts are reduced as production proceeds attributable to the employees’ working interests are not remitted to the employees but rather used to reduce the amounts owed by the employees to the Company. If an outstanding balance remains after the initial four-year term, the Company and employee shall, acting in good faith, agree upon further repayment terms.

Employees remain obligated for the entire loan amount regardless of a dry-hole event or otherwise insufficient production. The loans carry no loan forgiveness provisions, and no loans have ever been forgiven. The loans accrue interest at the prime rate, which was 3.25% at December 31, 2011.

In accordance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the Company has not extended any loans to officers or directors since 2002. At December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company has extended various loans, evidenced by notes, to two employees with origination dates ranging from December 2008 to December 2011. There have been no subsequent extensions or modifications to any of these notes since their original date of issuance. Employee notes receivables, including accrued interest, amounted to $447,826 and $651,470 at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

In January 2010, one employee settled his entire loan balance in full by selling working interests in well properties he owned to the Company for a total purchase price of $270,000 and by paying cash of $141,700.

Option Repurchase Plan

The Company has an Option Repurchase Plan (the “Plan”) which permits the grant of options to repurchase certain Units to select officers and employees (the “Participants”). The purpose of the Plan is to assist the Company to attract and retain officers and other key employees and to enable those individuals to acquire or increase their ownership interest in the Company in order to encourage them to promote the growth and profitability of the Company. The Plan is designed to align directly the financial interests of the Participants with the financial interests of the Unitholders. On June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company granted a total of 2,445 and 2,984 options to two officers and one employee, all of which were exercised on the same date. Compensation expense associated with these grants was not material to the financial statements.

Note 9.

Business Segments, Risks and Major Customers

The Company operates exclusively in the United States, almost entirely in Ohio and Pennsylvania, in the acquisition, exploration, development and production of oil and gas.

The Company operates in an environment with many financial risks, including, but not limited to, the ability to acquire additional economically recoverable oil and gas reserves, the inherent risks of the search for, development of and production of oil and gas, the ability to sell oil and gas at prices which will provide attractive rates of return, the volatility and seasonality of oil and gas production and prices, and the highly competitive and, at times, seasonal nature of the industry and worldwide economic conditions. The Company’s ability to expand its reserve base and diversify its operations is also dependent upon the Company’s ability to obtain the necessary capital through operating cash flow, borrowings or equity offerings. Various federal, state and governmental agencies are considering, and some have adopted, laws and regulations regarding environmental protection which could adversely affect the proposed business activities of the Company. The Company cannot predict what effect, if any, current and future regulations may have on the operations of the Company.

Management of the Company continually evaluates whether the Company can develop oil and gas properties at historical levels given current industry and market conditions. If the Company is unable to do so, it could be determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its unitholders to reorganize, liquidate or sell the Company. However, management cannot predict whether any sale transaction will be a viable alternative for the Company in the immediate future.

Gas sales accounted for 72% and 82% of total oil and gas sales in 2011 and 2010, respectively. Approximate percentages of total oil and gas sales from significant purchasers for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, were as follows:


Customer	2011			2010
Dominion Field Services, Inc. (“Dominion”)		35	%		39	%
Interstate Gas Supply, Inc. (“IGS”)		16			20
Ergon Oil Purchasing, Inc. (“Ergon Oil”)		27			17

Business Segments, Risks and Major Customers (Continued)

The Company’s production accounts receivable result from sales of natural gas and crude oil. A significant portion of the Company’s production accounts receivable is due from the Company’s major customers. The Company does not view such concentration as an unusual credit risk. However, the Company does not require collateral from its customers and could incur losses if its customers fail to pay. As a result of management’s review of current and historical credit losses and economic activity, a valuation allowance was not deemed necessary at December 31, 2011 and 2010. The Company expects that Dominion, IGS and Ergon Oil will continue to be the only major customers in 2012.

The Company has numerous annual contracts with Dominion, which obligate Dominion to purchase, and the Company to sell and deliver, certain quantities of natural gas production from the Company’s oil and gas properties throughout the contract periods. The Company may elect to lock-in specific volumes of natural gas to be sold in specific months at a mutually agreeable price. The Company has elected to lock-in various monthly quantities of natural gas which total .38 BCF through October 2012 at various monthly weighted-average prices ranging from $5.37 to $5.48 per MCF. The weighted-average price for all monthly quantities of natural gas locked-in with Dominion is $5.43 per MCF.

The Company also has an annual contract with IGS, which obligates IGS to purchase, and the Company to sell and deliver, certain quantities of natural gas production from the Company’s oil and gas properties throughout the contract period. The Company may elect to lock-in specific volumes of natural gas to be sold in specific months at a mutually agreeable price. The Company has elected to lock-in various monthly quantities of natural gas which total .24 BCF through October 2012 at various monthly weighted-average prices ranging from $5.23 to $5.54 per MCF. The weighted-average price for all monthly quantities of natural gas locked-in with IGS is $5.36 per MCF.

As detailed above, the price paid for natural gas purchased by Dominion and IGS varies based on quantities committed by the Company from time to time. Natural gas sold under these contracts in excess of the committed prices is sold at the month’s closing price plus basis adjustments, as per the contracts. These contracts are not considered derivatives, but have been designated as annual sales contracts as defined by generally accepted accounting principles. As of December 31, 2011, natural gas purchased by the Company’s Dominion contracts covers production from approximately 540 gross wells, while natural gas purchased by the Company’s IGS contracts covers production from approximately 240 gross wells. Production from the Dominion and IGS contracts’ oil and gas properties comprise approximately 70% and 71% of the Company’s natural gas sales in 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Note 10.

Commitments and Contingencies

As described in Note 9, the Company has significant natural gas delivery commitments to Dominion and IGS, two of its major customers. Management believes the Company can meet its delivery commitments based on estimated production. If, however, the Company cannot meet its delivery commitments, it will purchase natural gas at market prices to meet such commitments which will result in a gain or loss for the difference between the delivery commitment price and the price at which the Company is able to purchase the gas for redelivery (resale) to its customers.

In November 2010, the Company agreed to sell its deep rights in certain Ohio properties for cash consideration (the “Disposition”). The Company received a $1 million deposit from the purchaser (the “Deposit”) that is to be credited to the purchaser upon the closing of the Disposition. The Deposit is recognized as deferred revenue in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2011 and 2010 (see Note 2). The Disposition includes no producing reserves, and the Company will retain the rights to the shallow portion of the acreage subject to the agreement.

In February 2012, the Company closed on the first part of the Disposition with the sale of approximately 28,000 acres for cash consideration net to the Company’s interest of approximately $35 million. The Deposit was credited to the purchaser as part of this first closing.

The Company anticipates holding a second and final closing with the purchaser during the second quarter of 2012 (the “Final Closing”), as additional time is needed to allow the Company to cure various potential defects in the Company’s lease rights in the subject acreage as described in the closing conditions of the agreement. The Company anticipates that there will be certain defects that it will be unable to cure. By the completion of the Final Closing, the Company does not expect cash consideration net to the Company’s interest to exceed $3 million. There can be no assurance that all of the conditions to the Final Closing will be satisfied or that the Company’s expectations as to cash consideration to be received by completion of the Final Closing will be realized.

Supplemental Information Relating to Oil and Gas Producing Activities (Unaudited) (Continued)

There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of proved reserves and in projecting future rates of production and timing of development expenditures including many factors beyond the control of the Company. The estimated future cash flows are determined based on crude oil and natural gas pricing parameters established by generally accepted accounting principles, adjusted for contract terms within contract periods, estimated production of proved crude oil and natural gas reserves, estimated future production and development costs of reserves and future retirement obligations (net of salvage), based on current economic conditions, and the estimated future income tax expense, based on year-end statutory tax rates (with consideration of future tax rates already legislated) to be incurred on pretax net cash flows less the tax basis of the properties involved. Such cash flows are then discounted using a 10% rate.

The methodology and assumptions used in calculating the standardized measure are those required by generally accepted accounting principles and United States Securities and Exchange Commission reporting requirements. It is not intended to be representative of the fair market value of the Company’s proved reserves. The valuation of revenues and costs does not necessarily reflect the amounts to be received or expended by the Company. In addition to the valuations used, numerous other factors are considered in evaluating known and prospective oil and gas reserves.

The natural gas prices used in the estimation of proved reserves were $4.24 and $4.56 at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and the crude oil prices used in the estimation of proved reserves were $90.81 and $72.64 at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, management performed, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Based on the evaluation, management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective for the year ended December 31, 2011.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15). Internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Effective internal control can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and may not prevent or detect misstatements. Due to limitations on any control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues have been detected. In addition, effective internal control at a point in time may become ineffective in future periods because of changes in conditions or due to deterioration in the degrees of compliance with our established policies and procedures. We intend to continue to evaluate and improve our internal controls over financial reporting as necessary and appropriate for our business, but we cannot provide assurance that such improvements will be sufficient to provide effective internal control over financial reporting.

Management was responsible for assessing the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting (the “assessment”) beginning with the year ending December 31, 2006 (the “initial assessment”) and annually thereafter as required under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Section 404”). Management’s assessment efforts undertaken since and including the initial assessment have been conducted using the framework established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”).

Management utilized internal and external resources to assist in the various aspects of its assessment and compliance efforts. As a result of its assessment and compliance efforts, management has concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting were effective as of December 31, 2011, based on the Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by COSO.

This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to SEC rules that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report Form 10-K.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

PART III

ITEM 10. DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

The Company, as a limited partnership, does not have any directors or executive officers. The General Partner of the Company is Everflow Management Limited, LLC, an Ohio limited liability company formed in March 1999, as the successor to the Company’s original general partner. The members of the General Partner as of March 15, 2012 are EMC; two individuals who are officers and directors of EEI, William A. Siskovic and Brian A. Staebler; one individual who serves as the Chairman of the Board of EEI, Thomas L. Korner; one individual who is an employee of the Company, Richard M. Jones; and one New York limited liability company that is co-managed by an individual who is a director of EEI, Robert F. Sykes, and owned by the four adult children of Mr. Sykes.

EMC is the Managing Member of the General Partner. EMC was formed in September 1990 to act as the managing general partner of Everflow Management Company, the predecessor of the General Partner. EMC is owned by the other members of the General Partner and EMC currently has no employees, but as managing member of the General Partner makes all management and business decisions on behalf of the General Partner and thus on behalf of the Company.

EEI has continued its separate existence as a holder of interests in many of the same crude oil and natural gas properties that the Company operates. Many personnel previously employed by EEI to conduct its operation, drilling and field supervisory functions are now employed directly by the Company and discharge the same functions on behalf of the Company. EEI has no employees as of March 15, 2012, and has had no employees for at least the past two years. All of EEI’s outstanding shares are owned by the Company.

Directors and Officers of EEI and EMC. The executive officers and directors of EEI and EMC as of March 15, 2012 are as follows:


Name	Age		Positions and Offices with EEI	Positions and Offices with EMC

Thomas L. Korner		58	Chairman of the Board and director	Chairman of the Board and director

All directors of EEI are elected to serve by the Company, which is EEI’s sole shareholder. All officers of EEI serve at the pleasure of the Board of Directors. Directors and officers of EEI receive no compensation or fees for their services to EEI or their services on behalf of the Company.

All directors and officers of EMC hold their positions with EMC pursuant to a shareholders’ agreement among EMC and such directors and officers. The shareholders agreement controls the operation of EMC, provides for changes in share ownership of EMC, and determines the identity of the directors and officers of EMC as well as their replacements.

As a result of the foregoing organizational structure, the Company does not have a nominating committee or a compensation committee. The Directors of EMC function as the Company’s audit committee. None of the members of EMC’s board are “independent.” The Company believes that its status as a limited partnership, the limited voting rights possessed by holders of limited partnership units, and the existence of contractual arrangements governing the selection of EMC’s directors and officers makes it appropriate for the Company not to maintain nominating or compensation committees. Each director of EMC participates in determining the compensation of the executive officers of the Company.

Thomas L. Korner was President and Principal Executive Officer of EEI and EMC from November 1995 to January 2010, when he resigned from these positions and was appointed as Chairman of the Board for both entities.

He now supervises and oversees all aspects of the Company and EEI’s business, including oil and gas property acquisition, development, operation and marketing. From August 1980 to July 1984, Mr. Siskovic served in various financial and accounting capacities including Assistant Controller of Towner Petroleum Company, a public independent oil and gas operator, producer and drilling fund sponsor company.

-33-

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

The Audit Committee oversees the Company’s financial reporting process on behalf of the Board of Directors of Everflow Management Corporation, the managing general partner of Everflow Management Limited, LLC, the general partner of the Company. Management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements and the reporting process, including the systems of internal controls. The independent registered public accountants are responsible for expressing an opinion on the conformity of those audited financial statements with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

We have discussed with the independent public accountants of the Company, Maloney + Novotny LLC, the matters that are required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, Communication with Audit Committees, as amended, by the Auditing Standards Board of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, which includes a review of the findings of the independent accountants during its examination of the Company’s financial statements.

We have received and reviewed written disclosures and the letter from Maloney + Novotny LLC, which is required by Independence Standard No. 1, Independence Discussions with Audit Committee, as amended, by the Independence Standards Board, and we have discussed with Maloney + Novotny LLC their independence under such standards. We have concluded that the independent public accountants are independent from the Company and its management.

Based on our review and discussions referred to above, we have recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements of the Company be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Respectfully submitted by the members of the Audit Committee:

Code of Ethics

The Company has adopted a Code of Ethics that applies to the Company’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer, or persons performing similar functions. The Code of Ethics is included as Exhibit 14.1 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

A copy of the Code of Ethics will be provided upon written request.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance. Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act requires the Company’s officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company’s equity securities to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Officers, directors and greater than 10% owners are required by SEC regulation to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

Based solely on the Company’s review of the copies of such forms furnished to the Company, the Company believes that all required Section 16(a) filings for fiscal year 2011 were timely made.

ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

As a limited partnership, the Company has no executive officers or directors, but is managed by the General Partner. The executive officers of EMC and EEI are compensated either directly by the Company or indirectly through EEI. The compensation described below represents all compensation from either the Company or EEI.

Overview of 2011 Executive Compensation Components

Components of executive compensation in fiscal 2011 for the executive officers of EMC and EEI include the following:

•

base salary

•

annual cash bonuses

•

retirement and other benefits

Base Salary

The base salary of the executive officers is intended to provide fixed compensation for the performance of core duties. In determining appropriate salary levels, consideration is given to the level and scope of responsibility, experience, and Company and individual performance. The base salaries paid during fiscal 2011 are shown in the Summary Compensation Table below.

-35-

Annual Cash Bonuses

The annual bonus of the executive officers is intended to supplement the fixed compensation provided in the base salary to recognize an individual’s performance in a fiscal year. Payment with respect to any cash bonus is contingent upon the satisfaction of objective and subjective performance criteria. The annual cash bonus is determined at the end of each fiscal year. The amount is awarded in the first fiscal quarter following the end of each fiscal year.

Executive officers are provided an annual cash bonus each year based on the achievement of certain financial and non-financial performance objectives during the previous fiscal year. Annual cash bonuses are based on a percentage of the executive’s base salary. For 2011, the Board of Directors set a range of these bonuses between 75% and 125% of the executive’s base salary, based on the Company achieving specified financial and non-financial performance objectives. In 2011, the financial performance objectives that were used for determining financial performance-based cash awards were asset management, profitability and overall company stability. In 2011, the non-financial performance objectives that were used for determining non-financial performance based cash awards were corporate governance and adherence to policies and procedures as well as other factors that vary depending on responsibilities.

The 2012 target annual cash bonus awards for executive officers are established as a percentage of the executive’s base salary. These target amounts range between 80% and 150% of base salary. These target amounts were determined considering executive pay at companies of comparable size. The Board of Directors believes it is important that these target and maximum payout levels are aligned with the Company’s long-term strategic plan and the Company’s expectation of future financial performance. In addition, cash bonuses in 2012 are expected to include an amount for the successful completion of the Disposition described in the section entitled “Sale of Deep Rights” appearing on page 2 herein.

Retirement and Other Benefits

The executive officers are entitled to the same benefits coverage as other employees such as health insurance, life and disability insurance, participation in the Company’s 401(K) plan and the reimbursement of ordinary and reasonable business expenses. The executive officers are provided with a company owned vehicle.

Effective February 2010, the Company implemented an Option Repurchase Plan, under which the Company may grant options to repurchase Units acquired by the Company as part of the Repurchase Right to eligible officers. During June 2011 and 2010, the Company granted a total of 1,956 and 2,388 options, respectively, to executive officers. All options granted were exercised during the same month.

The Company does not currently offer any deferred compensation program, supplemental executive retirement plan or any financial planning services for executive officers.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

In the past, certain officers, directors and Unitholders who beneficially own more than 10% of the Company have invested in crude oil and natural gas programs sponsored by EEI on the same terms as other unrelated investors in such programs. In the past, certain officers, directors and/or more than 10% Unitholders of the Company have frequently participated and will likely participate in the future as working interest owners in wells in which the Company has an interest. The Company anticipates that any such participation by individual members of the Company’s management would enable such individuals to participate in the drilling and development of undeveloped drill sites on an equal basis with the Company or the particular drilling program acquiring such drill sites, which participation would be on a uniform basis with respect to all drilling conducted during a specified time frame, as opposed to selective participation. Frequently, such participation has been on more favorable terms than the terms which were available to other unrelated investors in such programs. Prior to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, EEI loaned the officers of the Company the funds necessary to participate in the drilling and development of such wells. The Company ceased making these loans in compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

Certain officers and directors of EMC own crude oil and natural gas properties and, as such, contract with the Company to provide field operations on such properties. These ownership interests are charged per well fees for such services on the same basis as all other working interest owners. William A. Siskovic made investments in crude oil and natural gas properties during 2011 and 2010 in the amount of $50,946 and $107,559, respectively. Brian A. Staebler made investments in crude oil and natural gas properties during 2011 and 2010 in the amount of $25,473 and $53,780, respectively. Thomas L. Korner made investments in crude oil and natural gas properties during 2011 and 2010 in the amount of $49,783 and $65,632, respectively.

Prior to being elected as an officer and director of EMC in January 2010, Brian A. Staebler repaid a loan due to the Company in its entirety by selling working interests in oil and gas properties he owned to the Company for a total purchase price of $270,000 and by paying cash of $141,700.

As a result of its organizational structure, the Company does not have a nominating committee or a compensation committee. The Directors of EMC function as the Company’s audit committee. None of the members of EMC’s board are “independent” under the current independence standards of Rule 5605(a)(2) of the Marketplace Rules of The NASDAQ Stock Market. The Company believes that its status as a limited partnership, the limited voting rights possessed by holders of limited partnership units, and the existence of contractual arrangements governing the selection of EMC’s directors and officers makes it appropriate for the Company not to maintain nominating or compensation committees.
