Production Volumes and Prices
In reviewing the recent month’s production, oil sales generated total cash receipts of $1.50 million, although this is slightly down from the previous month, influenced by fluctuations in oil prices and sales volumes. Notably, while barrels of oil per day increased due to higher production rates, the overall sales volumes were affected due to a shorter production duration.

Operating Expenses
Direct operating expenses totaled $0.66 million, which is a slight decrease from the previous month. This includes costs related to marketing, lease operations, and workover activities. From this total, severance and ad valorem taxes accounted for $0.14 million, reflective of the ongoing operational liabilities that the Trust must manage.

The management of the properties underlying the Trust has transitioned to T2S Permian Acquisition II LLC, which has expressed its intention to allocate funds for future capital expenditures.
