2JIM HOGG COUNTY HISTORYJim Hogg County is in the Rio Grande Plain region of South Texas twenty-eight miles north of theMexican border and sixty-six miles west of the Gulf Coast. The county, named for Governor JamesStephen Hogg, is bordered by Webb, Duval, Jim Wells, Brooks, Starr, and Zapata counties. Itscenter lies at 27°05' north latitude and 98°43' west longitude. Hebbronville, the largest town andcounty seat, is at the junction of State highways 16, 285, and 359, in the north central part of thecounty. Other communities include Agua Nueva, Altavista, Guerra, Randado, and Thompsonville.The county comprises 1,136 square miles of flat to gently rolling terrain vegetated with mesquite,scrub brush, grasses, and chaparral. Elevations range from 200 to 800 feet. In the east, soils aresandy, with areas of light color, or have loamy surfaces over very deep reddish or mottled clayeysubsoils. The rest of the county has loamy surfaces over deep reddish or mottled clayey subsoils,with limestone near the surface in some areas. In the early 1990s more than 90 percent of the landwas devoted to farming and ranching, with 2 percent of the farmland under cultivation and 21percent irrigated; only 1 percent of the land in the county is considered prime farmland. Mineralresources include caliche, clay, uranium, oil, and gas. Temperatures range from 44° F to 69° inJanuary and 73° to 99° in July; the average annual temperature is 73°. Rainfall averages twenty-three inches a year, and the growing season lasts 305 days. The area of Jim Hogg County has beenthe site of human habitation for perhaps 11,000 years. Among the oldest artifacts found in theregion are stone implements and human remains dating from the Paleo-Indian period (9200 to 6000B.C.). During the Archaic period (6000 B.C. to A.D. 1000) the local Indian population seems tohave increased, and many hunter-gatherers apparently spent time in the area.

GEOLOGICAL SUMMARY3This document was issued by New Century Exploration. INCThe New Century Exploration #3 KMF (Kenedy Memorial Foundation) will be the thirdof three wells to be drilled by New Century targeting undeveloped oil reserves at PradoField in Jim Hogg County, Texas. Over 200 wells were drilled very quickly after the fielddiscovery in 1956. The shallower Government Wells Formation is a large open reservoirand 32 BCF of gas were produced by the 1970’s. The deeper Middle Loma Novia Sand(“MLN”) is a thick stack of separate oil sands of limited lateral extent that require closespacing for effective drainage. Detailed research reports from the Bureau of EconomicGeology and US Department of Energy confirmed that the hasty development andproduction history of the field likely left sizable additional oil reserves in the MLN thatcould be recovered with new down-size development. Most of Prado Field was developedon 10-acre spacing but New Century acquired an area developed on larger 20-acre spacingwhich includes six undeveloped 10-acre locations. Fieldwide, the MLN wells had averageIPs of 90 BOPD and EUR of 92,000 BO but 80 BOPD and 75,000 BO were used foreconomics herein. The results of each New Century well will likely vary but each one inlocated in an undrilled 10-acrecircle surrounded by 4 wells with thick interbedded oil sands,with few perforations, and variable production histories.The New Century #3 KMF is on an existing road in a flat mesquite prairie on a large ranchwith 100% of the minerals owned by the Kenedy Memorial Foundation (KMF). This is aunique opportunity to develop an estimated 75,000 barrels of bypassed oil reserves. Thetotal completed well cost of a 1% interest is $14,000 ($10,357 drilling cost plus $3,642 forcompletion) with an estimated return-on-investment over 300% and first-year rate-of-returnof 125% at $80/BO.

TAX BENEFITSTHE BASIC TAX CONSIDERATIONS INVOLVED IN AN OIL & GAS INVESTMENT 1. INTANGIBLE DRILLING COSTS:Up to 80% of the investment amount constitutes what is known as intangible Drilling Costs (IDC), and is deductible against active, passive or portfolio income in the first year incurred. This includes all labor-relatedcosts for the prospect well. Including, but not limited to, drilling contractors, professional services, and others. Thetotal amount of IDC is reported to each participant at the end of the year. Please consult with your tax advisor forfurther details. 2. TANGIBLE DRILLING COSTS:Approximately 20% of the amount of costs to drill the well constitutes Tangible Drilling Costs (TDC). Thisincludes, but is not limited to, all well equipment, piping, storage tanks, wellhead equipment, lease expenses, andothers. The exact amount will be determined after the well is drilled. This portion of an investment is depreciatedover a seven year period. Please consult with your tax advisor for further details.EXAMPLEESTIMATED TAX PARTICIPATION EXAMPLEA$50,400x 80% $40,320+ $1,440$41,760Investment Amount Intangible Drilling Costs (estimate) 1st year deductions of intangible drilling costs (estimate) 1st year depreciation deduction (estimate) (50,400 x .20 divided by 7 years)TOTAL FIRST YEAR TAX DEDUCTIONS (estimate)B$41,760x 35%$14,616Total Deduction (estimate) Maximum Income Tax BracketTOTAL FIRST YEAR CASH VALUE OF DEDUCTIONS (estimate)C$50,400- $14,616$35,784Investment Amount Actual Cash Savings from Tax Deductions (estimate)AFTER TAX CASH INVESTMENT (estimate) 3.

TAX INCENTIVESCongressional Incentives Encourage Domestic Petroleum DevelopmentOil and Natural Gas from domestic reserves helps to make our country more energy self-sufficient by reducing our dependence onforeign imports. In light of this, Congress has provided tax incentives to stimulate domestic natural gas and oil production financedby private sources. Drilling projects offer many tax advantages and these benefits greatly enhance the economics. The incentives arenot “Loop Holes” – they were placed in the Tax Code by Congress to make participation in oil and gas ventures one of the best tax-advantaged investments.Intangible Drilling Cost Tax DeductionThe intangible expenditures of drilling (labor, chemicals, mud, grease, etc.) are usually about (65 to 80%) of the cost of a well. Theseexpenditures are considered “Intangible Drilling Costs (IDC)” which are 100% deductible during the first year. For example, a$100,000 investment could yield up to $80,000 in tax deductions during the first year of the venture. These deductions are available inthe year the money was invested, even if the well does not start drilling until March 31 of the year following the contribution ofcapital. (See Section 263 of the Tax Code.)Tangible Drilling Cost Tax DeductionThe total amount of the investment allocated to the equipment “Tangible Drilling Costs (TDC)” is 100% tax-deductible. In theexample above, the remaining tangible cost ($25,000) may be deducted as depreciation over a seven-year period. (See Section 263 ofthe Tax Code.)Active vs. Passive IncomeThe Tax Reform Act of 1986 introduced into the Tax Code the concepts of “Passive” income and “Active” income. The Act prohibitsthe offsetting of losses from Passive activities against income from Active businesses. The Tax Code specifically states that aWorking Interest in an oil and gas well is NOT a “Passive” Activity, therefore, deductions can be offset against income from activestock trades, business income, salaries, etc. (See Section 469(c)(3) of the Tax Code.)Small Producers Tax ExemptionThe 1990 Tax Act provided some special tax advantages for small companies and individuals. This tax incentive, known as the“Percentage Depletion Allowance”, is specifically intended to encourage participation in oil and gas drilling. This tax benefit is notavailable to large oil companies, retail petroleum marketers, or refiners that process more than 50,000 barrels per day. The “SmallProducers Exemption” allows 15% of the Gross Income (not Net Income) from an oil and gas producing property to be tax-free.Lease CostsLease costs (purchase of leases, minerals, etc.), sales expenses, legal expenses, administrative accounting, and Lease Operating Costs(LOC) are also 100% tax-deductible through cost depletion.Alternative Minimum TaxPrior to the 1992 Tax Act, working interest participants in oil and gas ventures were subject to the normal Alternative MinimalTax tothe extent that this tax exceeded their regular tax. This Tax Act specifically exempted Intangible Drilling Cost as a Tax Preferenceitem, “Alternative Minimum Taxable Income” generally consists of adjusted gross income, minus allowable Alternative MinimumTax itemized deduction, plus the sum of tax preference items and adjustments. “Tax preference items” are preferences existing in theCode to greatly reduce or eliminate regular income taxation. Included within this group are deductions for excess Intangible Drillingand Development Costs and the deduction for depletion allowable for a taxable year over the adjusted basis in the Drilling Acreageand the wells thereon.27
