recorded in the month the trust receives the related net profits
income. Because of this, sales volumes may fluctuate from

XTO Energy has advised the trustee that it has deducted budgeted
development costs of $200,000,
production expense of $1,363,000 and
overhead of $964,000 in determining
the royalty payment to the Trust for the current month.
Excess Costs
XTO Energy has advised the trustee that increased gas prices led
to the partial recovery of excess costs on properties underlying
the Kansas and Wyoming net profits interests. However after
the partial recovery, there were no remaining proceeds from the
properties underlying the Kansas
or Wyoming net profits interests
to be included in this month's distribution.
