One of the way would be to source the file. Try
Code:
michaelf>cat fil.ksh
#!/bin/ksh

#function
find_cfg()
{
awk "/$1/ {for(i=1; i<=4; i++) {getline; print}}" FILE.cfg>/home/michael/outfil
}

#call the function
find_cfg JAN_10

#source the file
. /home/michael/outfil

#check the values
echo $VAR1
echo $VAR2
echo $VAR3
michaelf>chmod u+x fil.ksh
michaelf>./fil.ksh
44
GUN
NATUR
michaelf>
