Monthly Net Profits Interest Calculation

Due to significant activity in the Wolfcamp drilling program during the month of July 2014, direct operating and development expenses for the current month net profits interest calculation exceeded cash receipts. The following displays the net profits interest calculation for the current month and the resulting shortfall in net profits:

Gross profits:
Oil cash receipts				$	6,914,760
Natural gas cash receipts					2,040,983
Total					8,955,743
Costs:
Direct operating expenses:
Lease operating expenses					2,624,000
Compression, gathering and transportation					256,000
Production, ad valorem and other taxes					409,000
Development expenses					6,303,000
Total					9,592,000
Net profits attributable to underlying properties					(636,257	)
Percentage allocable to net profits interest					80	%
Net profits to Trust from net profits interest				$	(509,006	)

As a result, no monthly cash distribution will be paid in October 2014 to the Trust's unitholders. The shortfall in net profits will be deducted from the net profits in next month's net profits interest calculation, at which time expenses are anticipated to revert to normal levels and result in net profits consistent with prior months.

The current month net profits interest calculation primarily represents oil production during the month of June 2014, natural gas production during May 2014, and costs incurred in July. As the majority of the Rocker B wells have started producing since July, the only Rocker B wells in the Wolfcamp play for which revenues are included in the above calculation are the Rocker B 40H, 41H, and 42H. Enduro anticipates that cash receipts from the sale of production from the remaining 10 wells that are currently producing will be included in distributions during the fourth quarter.

The following table displays underlying oil and natural gas sales volumes and average prices attributable to the current and prior month net profits interest calculations.

				Underlying Sales Volumes							Average Price
				Oil (Bbls)			Natural Gas (Mcf)				Oil (per Bbl)				Natural Gas (per Mcf)
Current Month				71,572			433,786				$	96.61			$	4.71
Prior Month				72,290			418,044				$	93.01			$	4.63

Oil cash receipts increased $0.2 million from the prior month and totaled $6.9 million as a result of increased NYMEX prices, partially offset by a decrease in sales volumes due to one less production day in June.

Natural gas receipts increased $0.1 million from the prior month, totaling $2.0 million, as a result of increased wellhead prices due to improved differentials from NYMEX and increased sales volumes due to one more production day in May.

Of the total $6.3 million in capital expenditures during July 2014, approximately $4.5 million related to the Wolfcamp activity in the Midland Basin. Through July, capital incurred for projects in the Wolfcamp Rocker B program has totaled $15.4 million.
