Oil cash receipts for the properties underlying the Trust totaled $2.66 million for the current month, an increase of $0.20 million from the prior month distribution period as a result of an increase in sales volumes and oil prices compared to the prior month.
Natural gas cash receipts for the properties underlying the Trust totaled $0.25 million for the current month, a decrease of $0.02 million from the prior month distribution period as a result of a decrease in gas prices compared to the prior month. Hedge settlement revenue in the amount of $165,350 has also been included in the calculation of net proceeds.
Total direct operating expenses, including lease operating expenses and workover expenses, were $0.70 million, an increase of $0.10 million from the prior month. Severance and ad valorem taxes were $0.51 million, an increase of $0.23 million from the prior month. Boaz Energy advised the Trustee that it increased the accrual for 2018 ad valorem tax to bring those accruals in line with expected actual taxes due.
Capital expenditures were $0.19 million in the current month, a decrease of $0.43 million from the prior month. Boaz Energy has advised the Trustee that the increase in capital expenditures reported in recent months was primarily attributable to non-operated drilling and completions as a result of which production is starting to come on-line in the Crane County, Texas wells.

The Trust announced on November 19, 2018 that Boaz Energy has sold and assigned its interest in certain leases located in Ward County, Texas as a result of a Qualified De Minimis Sale as contemplated by Section 3.02(c) of the Amended and Restated Trust Agreement of the Trust.
