Interests&#148;), from Burlington Resources Oil&nbsp;&amp; Gas Company LP (&#147;Burlington&#148;) to Hilcorp San Juan L.P. (&#147;Hilcorp&#148;) closed on July&nbsp;31, 2017. Due to the transition from Burlington, Hilcorp estimated revenue for the
August 2017 through November 2017 production months. Hilcorp will reconcile the actual revenue numbers versus the estimated numbers for those months and <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">true-up</FONT> any distributions, as needed. The March 2018
declaration of cash distribution reflects actual revenue and expenses for the month of January. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Gas production for the Subject Interests
totaled 3,153,960 Mcf (3,504,400 MMBtu) for January 2018. Dividing revenues by production volume yielded an average gas price for January 2018 of $1.40 per Mcf ($1.26 per MMBtu) as compared to an average gas price for December 2017 of $2.35 per Mcf
($2.11 MMBtu). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The average monthly gas price Hilcorp reports to the Trust is a calculated price. It is determined by dividing gross
monthly revenue by production volume, and therefore, it does not represent an average of actual sales prices. The average gas price may vary from the posted index price for the San Juan Basin. The index price is a gross sales price, and the revenues
used in the calculation of average gas prices are net of transportation, processing and gathering costs. Furthermore, the distribution to the Trust in any given month may include significant volume adjustments for sales in prior months that reflect
pricing for those prior months. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For the month ended January 2018, capital costs were $39,925, lease operating expenses were $2,133,895
and property taxes were $26. Severance taxes were $440,705. </P> <P STYLE="font-size:12pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>
