reported the net income and results for the third quarter of fiscal 2015
which appear below compared with the third quarter of fiscal 2014. Total
royalties received reflect the impact of accounting adjustments from prior
periods as well as the inclusion of sulfur royalty payments by the operating
companies.

The Mobil Agreement, the higher royalty rate agreement, covers gas sales from
the western half of the Oldenburg concession. The OEG Agreement, the lower
royalty rate agreement, covers gas sales from the entire Oldenburg
concession. The factors determining the amount of gas royalties payable
under the two agreements from the preceding calendar quarter are shown in the
table below comparing the second calendar quarters of 2015 and 2014. Further
details will be available in the Trust's quarterly report on Form 10-Q which

Trust expenses for the third quarter of fiscal 2015 decreased 16.67%, or
$29,932, to $149,586 in comparison to $179,518 for the third quarter of
fiscal 2014. The decrease was due to lower Trustee fees as specified in
the Trust Agreement and reduced legal expenses, both domestic and German,
following the resolution in 2014 of negotiations concerning a gas pricing
proposal by EMPG.
