DEF This is the second text.
GH1 9.8.7890
AB1 This is the first1 text.
DE2 This is the second1 text.
GH2 19.8.7890
AB3 This is the first2 text.
DE3 This is the second2 text.
GH3 29.5.7890
AB4 This is the first3 text.
DE4 This is the second4 text.
GH4 9.9.7890

Now I need to grep for GH1, 2, 3 ,4 records and extract the corresponding number upto 5 position..
