VERIFICATION OF APPRAISER
STATE OF WYOMING )
) SS.
COUNTY OF GOSHEN )
1, James E. Wann, being of lawful age, and being first duly sworn upon my oath, depose
and state that I am a Mineral Title Consultant, that I reviewed the mineral estate of the late
Stanley Walker situated in Goshen County, Wyoming,with the express purpose of placing a fair
market value on this estate as of November 26, 2012, that I prepared the MINERAL INTEREST
VALUATION dated February 20, 2015, attached hereto as Exhibit "A", that I am the individual
stated in the MINERAL INTEREST VALUATION, that I have read and understand the contents
thereof, that I executed said instrument, and that the facts set forth in the MINERAL INTEREST
VALUATION dated February 20, 2015,are true as I verily believe.
James E. Wann
Subscribed and sworn to before me this 20th day of February,2015, by James E. Wann.
Witness my hand and official seal.
�;� � Not Public
My Commission Expires: wr
there been any past history of production. No records of any past or present mining activity were found.
Therefore,no value was given subject lands on a production basis.
IYL
Goshen County, Wyoming records did not reflect comparable mineral estate transactions within a 12-
month period prior to November 26,2012. Therefore,no value was given subject lands on a comparable
basis.
IV.
Goshen County,Wyoming records did reflect recent history of leasing for oil,gas and other
hydrocarbons in fair proximity to subject lands 24 months prior to November 26,2012. According to oil
and gas industry insiders,the fair market leasing value-or"going rate"—at that time was$50 to$75 per
net mineral acre.
Using the industry standard ratio of mineral value equals three times leasing value,as of November 26,
2012, fair market value of the mineral estate would be approximately$195 per net mineral acre($65 per
average net mineral acre leasing value x 3 =$195.00 x 31.345 net mineral acres). Therefore, it is
reasonable to place the fair market value of the Stanley Walker mineral estate as of November 26,2012 at
$6,112.00 rounded.
FAIR MARKET VALUE
Estimated Fair Market Value as of November 26,2012 for non-producing minerals owned by the
Stanley Walker Estate:
31.345 net mineral acres x$195 per net mineral acre................................$6,112.00(rounded)
The above valuation is for the exclusive use of Sawyer,Warren &Buchannan Law Firm,
Torrington,Wyoming. It is understood that all valuations herein are projected values only, 'based upon
dated information of which may or may not accurately reflect fair market valuations as of the effective
date hereof. No physical examination of the properties has been performed by the undersigned. No
liability is assumed by the undersigned beyond the amount paid for the valuation service.

FAIR MARKET VALUE
To arrive at fair market value,the following four criteria were used:
1. Determine actual net mineral interest of Stanley Walker as of date of death (November 26,2012),
In subject lands;
II. Determine current and/or historical commercial mineral production on subject lands;
111. Research any comparable mineral estate transactions within a one-mile radius of subject lands
within 12 months,plus or minus,of November 26,2012;and,
IV. Research leasehold values for any oil,gas or mining exploration leases on or within a one-mile
radius of subject lands within 24 months prior to November 26,2012.
To wit:
1.
It was determined from records of the Office of Clerk and Ex-Officio Register of Deeds,Goshen
County,Wyoming that at the time of death,the late Stanley Walker owned a total of 31.345 net mineral
acres for a combined fractional 1/20th or 5.00%net mineral interest in the subject lands.
