Excess Costs

XTO Energy has advised the Trustee that production costs exceeded gross proceeds by $16,000 on properties underlying the Texas Working Interest net profits interests. However, these excess costs did not reduce net proceeds from the remaining conveyances. Underlying cumulative excess costs remaining on the Texas Working Interest net profits interests after the current month’s distribution total $2.1 million, including accrued interest of $307,000.
