Excess production costs occur when production costs and capital expenditures exceed the gross proceeds for a certain period. Excess production costs for this reporting period are due primarily to significant lease operating expenses and capital expenditures associated with Hilcorp San Juan L.P.&#x2019;s (&#x201c;Hilcorp&#x201d;) 2024 capital project plan.</font></p><p style="font-size:10pt;margin-top:6pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:10pt;text-align:justify;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:11pt;font-family:'Calibri Light',sans-serif;min-width:fit-content;">Hilcorp reported $3,674,540 of total revenue from the Subject Interests for the production month of October 2024, consisting of $3,602,210 of gas revenues and $72,330 of oil revenues.

The increase in administrative expenses was attributable to differences in timing of the receipt and payment of certain expenses by the Trust.  Interest income received by the Trust in the amount of $3,689 will be applied to cover a portion of this month&#x2019;s Trust administrative expenses, with cash reserves utilized to pay the remaining administrative expenses.</font></p><p style="font-size:10pt;margin-top:0;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:justify;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:11pt;font-family:'Calibri Light',sans-serif;min-width:fit-content;">Based upon information provided to the Trust by Hilcorp, gas volumes for the subject interests for October 2024 totaled 1,880,071 Mcf (2,088,968 MMBtu), as compared to 1,869,291 Mcf (2,076,989 MMBtu) for September 2024. Dividing gas revenues by production volume yielded an average gas price for October 2024 of $1.92 per Mcf ($1.72 per MMBtu), as compared to an average gas price for September 2024 of $1.42 per Mcf ($1.28 per MMBtu).</font></p><p style="font-size:10pt;margin-top:0;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:justify;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:11pt;font-family:'Calibri Light',sans-serif;min-width:fit-content;"> </font></p><p style="font-size:10pt;margin-top:0;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:justify;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:11pt;font-family:'Calibri Light',sans-serif;min-width:fit-content;">Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Royalty Trust Indenture, dated December 12, 2007 (as amended on February 15, 2024, by the First Amendment to the Amended and Restated Royalty Trust Indenture), the Trustee is authorized to retain, in its sole discretion, a cash reserve for payment of Trust liabilities that are contingent or uncertain or otherwise not currently due and payable.  To cover Trust expenses during any period of revenue shortfall, which has resulted and may continue to result from lower commodity prices and increased capital expenditures and lease operating expenses under Hilcorp&#x2019;s 2024 capital project plan for the Subject Interests, the Trustee increased the cash reserves in March and April of 2024, such that total cash reserves were $1.8 million as of April 30, 2024.  Interest income and cash reserves were utilized to pay Trust administrative expenses each month from May through November of 2024.  This month, cash reserves in the amount of $200,647 will be utilized to cover the balance of Trust administrative expenses which will bring the balance of cash reserves maintained by the Trustee to $760,919.  Prior to any future distributions to Unit Holders, the Trustee plans to replenish the cash reserves and continue to increase the cash reserves to $2.0 million.</font></p><p style="font-size:10pt;margin-top:6pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:10pt;text-align:justify;"><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:11pt;font-family:'Calibri Light',sans-serif;min-width:fit-content;">Production from the Subject Interests continues to be gathered, processed, and sold under market sensitive and customary agreements, as recommended for approval by the Trust&#x2019;s Consultant.
