NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. Description of Business

Mewbourne Energy Partners 05-A, L.P. (the “Registrant” or the “Partnership”), a Delaware limited partnership, is engaged primarily in oil and gas development and production in Texas, Oklahoma, and New Mexico, and was organized on February 14, 2005. The offering of limited and general partnership interests began June 1, 2005 as a part of an offering registered under the name Mewbourne Energy Partners 04-05 Drilling Program, (the “Program”), and concluded July 29, 2005, with total investor contributions of $30,000,000 originally being sold to 1,128 subscribers of which $26,844,000 were sold to 998 subscribers as general partner interests and $3,156,000 were sold to 130 subscribers as limited partner interests. During 2007, all general partner equity interests were converted to limited partner equity interests. In accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, Mewbourne Development Corporation (“MD”), a Delaware Corporation, has been appointed as the Partnership’s managing general partner. MD has no significant equity interest in the Partnership.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Reference is hereby made to the Registrant’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2012, which contains a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Partnership in the preparation of its financial statements. These policies are also followed in preparing the quarterly report included herein.

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

3. Accounting for Oil and Gas Producing Activities

The Partnership follows the full-cost method of accounting for its oil and gas activities. Under the full-cost method, all productive and non-productive costs incurred in the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas properties are capitalized. Depreciation, depletion and amortization of oil and gas properties subject to amortization is computed on the units-of-production method based on the proved reserves underlying the oil and gas properties. At June 30, 2013 and 2012, all capitalized costs were subject to amortization. Proceeds from the sale or other disposition of properties are credited to the full cost pool. Gains and losses on the sale or other disposition of properties are not recognized unless such adjustments would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and the proved oil and gas reserves. Capitalized costs are subject to a quarterly ceiling test that limits such costs to the aggregate of the present value of future net cash flows of proved reserves and the lower of cost or fair value of unproved properties. There were no cost ceiling write-downs for the six months ended June 30, 2013 or 2012.

4. Asset Retirement Obligations

The Partnership has recognized an estimated asset retirement obligation liability (ARO) for future plugging and abandonment costs. A liability for the estimated fair value of the future plugging and abandonment costs is recorded with a corresponding increase in the full cost pool at the time a new well is drilled. Depreciation expense associated with estimated plugging and abandonment costs is recognized in accordance with the full cost methodology.

The Partnership estimates a liability for plugging and abandonment costs based on historical experience and estimated well life. The liability is discounted using the credit-adjusted risk-free rate. Revisions to the liability could occur due to changes in well plugging and abandonment costs or well useful lives, or if federal or state regulators enact new well restoration requirements. The Partnership recognizes accretion expense in connection with the discounted liability over the remaining life of the well.

A reconciliation of the Partnership’s liability for well plugging and abandonment costs for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and the year ended December 31, 2012 is as follows:

	June 30,			December 31,
	2013			2012
Balance, beginning of period	$	180,898		$	168,136
Liabilities incurred		5,905			2,103
Liabilities reduced due to revisions		(55	)		(565	)
Accretion expense		6,087			11,224
Balance, end of period	$	192,835		$	180,898

5. Related Party Transactions

In accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, Mewbourne Development Corporation (“MD”), a Delaware Corporation, has been appointed as the Partnership’s managing general partner. MD has no significant equity interest in the Partnership. Mewbourne Oil Company (“MOC”) is operator of oil and gas properties owned by the Partnership. Mewbourne Holdings, Inc. is the parent of both MD and MOC. Substantially all transactions are with MD and MOC.

In the ordinary course of business, MOC will incur certain costs that will be passed on to owners of the well for which the costs were incurred. The Partnership will receive their portion of these costs based upon their ownership in each well incurring the costs. These costs are referred to as operator charges and are standard and customary in the oil and gas industry. Operator charges include recovery of gas marketing costs, fixed rate overhead, supervision, pumping, and equipment furnished by the operator, some of which will be included in the full cost pool pursuant to Rule 4-10(c)(2) of Regulation S-X. Services and operator charges are billed in accordance with the program and partnership agreements.

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

The Partnership participates in oil and gas activities through the Program. The Partnership and MD are the parties to the Program, and the costs and revenues are allocated between them as follows:

	Partnership			MD
Revenues:
Proceeds from disposition of depreciable and depletable properties		70	%		30	%
All other revenues		70	%		30	%
Costs and expenses:
Organization and offering costs (1)		0	%		100	%
Lease acquisition costs (1)		0	%		100	%
Tangible and intangible drilling costs (1)		100	%		0	%
Operating costs, reporting and legal expenses, general and
administrative expenses and all other costs		70	%		30	%

(1)

Pursuant to the Program, MD must contribute 100% of organization and offering costs and lease acquisition costs which should approximate 20% of total capital costs. To the extent that organization and offering costs and lease acquisition costs are less than 20% of total capital costs, MD is responsible for tangible drilling costs until its share of the Program’s total capital costs reaches approximately 20%. The Partnership’s financial statements reflect its respective proportionate interest in the Program.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Mewbourne Energy Partners 05-A, L.P. was formed February 14, 2005. The offering of limited and general partnership interests began June 1, 2005 and concluded July 29, 2005, with total investor contributions of $30,000,000. During 2007, all general partner equity interests were converted to limited partner equity interests.

Future capital requirements and operations will be conducted with available funds generated from oil and gas activities. No bank borrowing is anticipated. The Partnership had net working capital of $263,666 at June 30, 2013.

During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Partnership made cash distributions to the investor partners in the amount of $297,052 as compared to $604,809 for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The Partnership expects that cash distributions will continue during 2013 as additional oil and gas revenues are sufficient to produce cash flows from operations.

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

Results of Operations

For the three months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2012:

	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2013		2012
Oil sales	$	186,815	$	139,928
Barrels produced		2,088		1,603
Average price/bbl	$	89.47	$	87.29

Gas sales	$	304,662	$	231,491
Mcf produced		66,526		87,804
Average price/mcf	$	4.58	$	2.64

Oil and gas revenues. As shown in the above table, total oil and gas sales increased by $120,058 a 32.3% rise, for the three months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2012.

Of this increase, $3,494 and $170,616 were due to rises in the average prices of oil and gas sold, respectively. The average price increased to $89.47 from $87.29 per barrel (bbl) and to $4.58 from $2.64 per thousand cubic feet (mcf) for the three months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2012.

Also contributing to the increase was $43,393 due to a rise in the volume of oil sold. The volume rose by 485 bbls for the three months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2012.

These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $97,445 from a decline in the volume of gas sold. The volume fell by 21,278 mcf for the three months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2012.

Lease operations. Lease operating expense during the three month period ended June 30, 2013 decreased to $105,746 from $113,111 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 due to fewer well repairs and workovers.

Production taxes. Production taxes during the three month period ended June 30, 2013 increased to $31,432 from $26,808 for the three month period ended June 30, 2012 due to higher overall oil and gas revenue.

Administrative and general expense. Administrative and general expense decreased to $26,214 for the three month period ended June 30, 2013 from $32,970 for the three month period ended June 30, 2012 due to lower general expense for reporting and legal costs.

Depreciation, depletion and amortization. Depreciation, depletion and amortization for the three month period ended June 30, 2013 decreased to $83,639 from $101,620 for the three month period ended June 30, 2012 due to the decreased production volumes for the three month period ended June 30, 2013.

Results of Operations

For the six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2012:

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2013		2012
Oil sales	$	255,544	$	318,107
Barrels produced		2,922		3,401
Average price/bbl	$	87.46	$	93.53

Gas sales	$	508,526	$	478,657
Mcf produced		123,617		167,040
Average price/mcf	$	4.11	$	2.87

Oil and gas revenues. As shown in the above table, total oil and gas sales decreased by $32,694, a 4.1% decline, for the six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Of this decrease, $41,891 and $178,630 were due to declines in the volume of oil and gas sold, respectively. The volumes fell by 479 barrels (bbls) and 43,423 thousand cubic feet (mcf) in the six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Also contributing to the decrease was $20,672 from a decline in the price of oil sold. The average price decreased to $87.46 from $93.53 per bbl for the six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Partially offsetting the overall decreased revenue was $208,499 due to a rise in the average price of gas sold. The average price increased to $4.11 from $2.87 per mcf for the six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Lease operations. Lease operating expense during the six month period ended June 30, 2013 increased to $249,701 from $220,154 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 due to more well repairs and workovers.

Production taxes. Production taxes during the six month period ended June 30, 2013 decreased to $48,863 from $55,101 for the six month period ended June 30, 2012 due to lower oil revenue.

Administrative and general expense. Administrative and general expense decreased to $46,478 for the six month period ended June 30, 2013 from $55,866 for the six month period ended June 30, 2012 due to decreased administrative expenses allocable to the Partnership.

Depreciation, depletion and amortization. Depreciation, depletion and amortization for the six month period ended June 30, 2013 decreased to $151,329 from $188,514 for the six month period ended June 30, 2012 due to decreased production volumes for the six month period ended June 30, 2013.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

1. Interest Rate Risk

The Partnership Agreement allows borrowings from banks or other financial sources of up to 20% of the total capital contributions to the Partnership without investor approval. Should the Partnership elect to borrow monies for additional development activity on Partnership properties, it will be subject to the interest rate risk inherent in borrowing activities. Changes in interest rates could significantly affect the Partnership’s results of operations and the amount of net cash flow available for partner distributions. Also, to the extent that changes in interest rates affect general economic conditions, the Partnership will be affected by such changes.

2. Commodity Price Risk

The Partnership does not expect to engage in commodity futures trading or hedging activities or enter into derivative financial instrument transactions for trading or other speculative purposes. The Partnership currently expects to sell a significant amount of its production from successful oil and gas wells on a month-to-month basis at market prices. Accordingly, the Partnership is at risk for the volatility in commodity prices inherent in the oil and gas industry, and the level of commodity prices will have a significant impact on the Partnership’s results of operations. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, a 10% change in the price received for oil and gas production would have had an approximate $76,000 impact on revenue.

3. Exchange Rate Risk

The Partnership currently has no income from foreign sources or operations in foreign countries that would subject it to currency exchange rate risk. The Partnership does not currently expect to purchase any prospects located outside of either the United States or United States coastal waters in the Gulf of Mexico.

Item 4. Disclosure Controls and Procedures

MD maintains a system of controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance as to the reliability of the financial statements and other disclosures included in this report, as well as to safeguard assets from unauthorized use or disposition. MD’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures with the assistance and participation of other members of management. Based upon that evaluation, MD’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that its disclosure controls and procedures are effective for gathering, analyzing and disclosing the information the Partnership is required to disclose in the reports it files under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Since MD’s December 31, 2012 annual report on internal control over financial reporting, and for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, there have been no changes in MD’s internal controls or in other factors which have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the internal controls over financial reporting.

Part II – Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Registrant may be a party to certain legal actions and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of these events cannot be predicted with certainty, the Partnership does not expect these matters to have a material effect on its financial position or results of operations.
