<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.25in">On June 20, 2016, U.S. Energy Corp. (the &ldquo;Company&rdquo;)
filed Articles of Amendment to Restated Articles of Incorporation (the &ldquo;Amendment&rdquo;) with the Secretary of State of
Wyoming to effect a six shares for one share reverse stock split of the shares of the Company&rsquo;s common stock, par value $0.01
per share (the &ldquo;Common Stock&rdquo;), effective on June 20, 2016 (the &ldquo;Reverse Stock Split&rdquo;). As reported below
under Item 5.07 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, the Company held its annual meeting of shareholders on June 20, 2016, at which
meeting the Company&rsquo;s shareholders, by an affirmative vote of a majority of the Company&rsquo;s shares of Common Stock present
in person or by proxy at the meeting, approved the Amendment.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.25in">As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every
six shares of issued and outstanding Common Stock will be automatically combined into one issued and outstanding share of Common
Stock, without any change in the par value per share or the number of shares of Common Stock authorized. No fractional shares will
be issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. Any fractional shares that would otherwise have resulted from the Reverse Stock
Split will be paid in a proportionate amount based on the average closing price of the Common Stock as reported by The NASDAQ Capital
Market for the five trading days immediately preceding the date of the Reverse Stock Split; provided that the Company is also authorized
(i) to issue fractional shares to some or all registered holders who would otherwise be eliminated as a result of the Reverse Stock
Split or (ii) to round up fractional shares to the nearest whole share of Common Stock for some or all of such registered holders,
if the Board of Directors of the Company determines that doing so would be in the best interests of the Company. Certificates that
immediately prior to the effective time for the Reverse Stock Split represented shares of Common Stock (&ldquo;Old Certificates&rdquo;),
shall thereafter represent that number of shares of Common Stock into which the shares of Common Stock represented by the Old Certificate
shall have been combined, subject to the treatment of fractional shares as described above.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.25in">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">The Reverse Stock Split
will reduce the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding from 28.2 million shares to approximately 4.7 million shares, subject
to adjustment for the payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares. On June 21, 2016, NASDAQ informed the Company that the Reverse
Stock Split would be effective for trading of the Company&rsquo;s Common Stock beginning on June 22, 2016.</P>

of this Articles of Amendment to the Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, of U.S. Energy Corp. (the &ldquo;Company&rdquo;),
each six (6) shares of the Company&rsquo;s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (&ldquo;Common Stock&rdquo;), issued and outstanding
immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be combined into one (1) validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of Common
Stock without any further action by the Company or the holder thereof (the &ldquo;Reverse Stock Split&rdquo;). The Company is authorized
to make a cash payment in lieu of any fractional share interest resulting from the Reverse Stock Split; provided that the Company
is also authorized (i) to issue fractional shares to some or all registered holders who would otherwise be eliminated as a result
of the Reverse Stock Split or (ii) to round up fractional shares to the nearest whole share of Common Stock for some or all of
such registered holders, if the Board of Directors of the Company determines that doing so would be in the best interests of the
Company. Certificates that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented shares of Common Stock (&ldquo;Old Certificates&rdquo;),
shall thereafter represent that number of shares of Common Stock into which the shares of Common Stock represented by the Old Certificate
shall have been combined, subject to the treatment of fractional shares as described above. The authorized shares of Common Stock
shall not be reduced or otherwise affected by the Reverse Stock Split or this Articles of Amendment, and neither the Reverse Stock
Split nor this Articles of Amendment will affect the per share par value of the Company&rsquo;s Common Stock, which will remain
at the existing par value of $0.01 per share.</TD></TR></TABLE>
