Royalty income for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 increased approximately $3,393,000 or 32% compared with the second quarter of 2009.

These increases were offset somewhat by a decrease in the production of oil. Compared to the preceding quarter ended March 31, 2010, royalty income decreased approximately $345,000, or 2%, due to decreases in the production of both oil and natural gas. These decreases were tempered somewhat by increases in both the price of oil and natural gas. Royalty income for the six months ended June 30, 2010 increased $6,891,000 or 32% compared with the same time period in 2009. This increase was due mainly to an increase in natural gas production as well as increases in the prices of both oil and natural gas. The increases were offset somewhat by a decrease in the production of oil.
