interests in molybdenum, oil and gas, geothermal, and real estate assets, today
announced that it has entered into a Participation Agreement with Houston,
Texas-based Houston Energy L.P. (&#8220;HE&#8221;) to acquire a 10% working interest in an
oil and gas prospect located in Southeast Texas.&#160;&#160;HE will be the

terms of the agreement, U.S. Energy will pay sunk land costs and a prospect fee
of approximately $29,000 and will be responsible for 10% of the costs to drill
an initial test well (ITW) to earn an 8.5% after casing point (ACP) working
interest (6.2% net revenue interest).&#160;&#160;There is a 10% after prospect
payout (APO) back-in working interest due the operator, which would reduce U.S.
Energy&#8217;s APO working interest to 7.65% (5.6% net revenue
interest).&#160;&#160;The initial commitment under the agreement is
approximately $260,000, including the prospect fee, to the casing
point.&#160;&#160;Spudding of the well is expected to take place in April 2009
with an initial planned drilling depth of approximately 11,000
feet.&#160;&#160;If the ITW is deemed productive, additional prospects have also
been identified, and will be evaluated on a going forward basis.</font></div>
