Proved Developed Oil and Gas ReservesProved Oil and Gas Reserves that can be expected to be recovered:



Proved Developed Producing ReservesProved developed reserves that are expected to be recovered from completion intervals currently open in existing
wells and capable of production to market.

Proved Oil and Gas ReservesThose quantities of oil and gas that, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable
certainty to be economically produciblefrom a given date forward, from known reservoirs, and under existing economic conditions, operating methods, and government
regulationsprior to the time at which contracts providing the right to operate expire, unless evidence indicates that renewal is reasonably certain, regardless of whether deterministic or
probabilistic methods are used for the estimation. The project to extract the hydrocarbons must have commenced or the operator must be reasonably certain that it will commence the project within a
reasonable time.

impermeable rock or water barriers and is individual and separate from other reservoirs.

Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash FlowsAlso referred to herein as "standardized measure." It is the present value of estimated
future net revenues computed by discounting estimated future net revenues at a rate of 10% annually.

The
Financial Accounting Standards Board requires disclosure of standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows relating to proved oil and gas reserve quantities per accounting
literature for extractive activitiesoil and gas, as follows: A standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows relating to an enterprise's interests in (a) proved oil and
gas reserves and (b) oil and gas subject to purchase under long-term supply, purchase, or similar agreements and contracts in which the enterprise participates in the operation of the

PART I

Item 1.    Business.

General

MV Oil Trust, which we refer to herein as the "trust," was formed in August 2006, by MV Partners, LLC, which we refer to as "MV
Partners." Much of the information disclosed herein has been provided to the trust by MV Partners, including information associated with the underlying properties such as production and well counts,
major producing areas, customer relationships, competition, marketing and post-production services, and certain information on which reserve data is based.

The
trust is a statutory trust created under the Delaware Statutory Trust Act. The business and affairs of the trust are managed by The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as
trustee. The trust maintains its offices at the office of the trustee, at 919 Congress Avenue, Austin, Texas 78701. The telephone number of the trustee is 1-855-802-1094. In addition, Wilmington Trust
Company acts as the Delaware trustee of the trust. The Delaware trustee has only minimal rights and duties as are necessary to satisfy the requirements of the Delaware Statutory Trust Act. The trust
does not have any employees, and the business and affairs of the trust are managed by the trustee.

The
trustee does not maintain a website for filings by the trust with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which we refer to herein as the "SEC." Electronic filings by the trust with
the SEC are available free of charge through the SEC's website atwww.sec.govand at http://mvo.investorhq.businesswire.com.

On
January 24, 2007, MV Partners and the trust completed an initial public offering of units of beneficial interest in the trust, which we refer to herein as the "trust units." In
connection with the completion of the initial public offering of trust units, on January 24, 2007, MV Partners conveyed a term net profits interest to the trust that represents the right to
receive 80% of the net proceeds (calculated as described below) from all of MV Partners' interests in oil and natural gas properties as of January 24, 2007, which is referred to herein as the
"net profits interest." These properties are located in the Mid-Continent region in the States of Kansas and Colorado. MV Partners' net interests in such properties, after deduction of all royalties
and other burdens on production thereon as of January 24, 2007, is referred to herein as the "underlying properties." As of December 31, 2014, the underlying properties produced
predominantly oil from approximately 1,000 wells, and the projected reserve life of the underlying properties was over 50 years. Based on the summary prepared by Cawley, Gillespie &
Associates, Inc., independent petroleum and geological engineers, who we refer to as "CG&A", of its reserve report as of December 31, 2014 for the trust, which is summarized herein under
"Description of the Underlying PropertiesReserves" and is referred to herein as the "reserve report," the net profits interest would entitle the trust to receive net proceeds
from the sale of production of not less than 11.5 MMBoe of proved reserves during the term of the trust, calculated as 80% of the proved reserves attributable to the underlying properties expected to
be produced during the term of the trust. Of these reserves, approximately 88% were classified as proved developed producing reserves as of December 31, 2014. Production volumes from the
underlying properties for the year ended December 31, 2014 were approximately 99% oil and approximately 1% natural gas and natural gas liquids. The underlying properties are all located in
mature fields that are
characterized by long production histories and numerous additional development opportunities to help reduce the natural decline in production from the underlying properties.

The
net profits interest will terminate on the later to occur of (1) June 30, 2026, or (2) the time when 14.4 MMBoe have been produced from the underlying properties
and sold (which amount is the equivalent of 11.5 MMBoe in respect of the trust's right to receive 80% of the net proceeds from the underlying properties pursuant to the net profits interest), and the
trust will soon thereafter wind up its

6

---



Table of Contents

affairs
and terminate. As of December 31, 2014, cumulatively, since inception, the trust has received payment for approximately 6.2 MMBoe of the trust's 11.5 MMBoe interest. The gross proceeds
used to calculate the net profits interest is based on prices realized for oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids attributable to the underlying properties for each calendar quarter during the term
of the net profits interest. In connection with the conveyance of the net profits interest, on January 24, 2007, MV Partners assigned to the trust the right to receive 80% of all amounts
payable to MV Partners from hedge contract counterparties upon monthly settlements of the hedge contracts. In calculating the net proceeds used to calculate the net profits interest, MV Partners
deducts from the gross proceeds from the underlying properties all lease operating expenses, maintenance expenses and capital expenditures (including the cost of workovers and recompletions, drilling
costs and development costs), amounts that may be reserved for future capital expenditures (which reserve amounts may not exceed $1.0 million in the aggregate at any given time),
post-production costs and production and property taxes paid by MV Partners.

Net
proceeds payable to the trust depend upon production quantities, sales prices of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids, and costs to develop and produce the oil, natural gas and
natural gas liquids. If at any time costs should exceed gross proceeds, neither the trust nor the trust unitholders would be liable for the excess costs; the trust, however, would not receive any net
proceeds until future net proceeds exceed the total amount of those excess costs, plus interest at the prime rate.

The
trust will make quarterly cash distributions of substantially all of its quarterly cash receipts, after deduction of fees and expenses for the administration of the trust and any
cash the trustee decides to hold as a reserve against future expenses, to holders of its trust units during the term of the trust. Because payments to the trust will be generated by depleting assets
and the trust has a finite life with the production from the underlying properties diminishing over time, a portion of each distribution will represent a return of the original investment in the trust
units.

The
trust was created to acquire and hold the net profits interest for the benefit of the trust unitholders. The net profits interest is passive in nature and neither the trust nor the
trustee has any control over or responsibility for costs relating to the operation of the underlying properties. The
business and affairs of the trust are managed by the trustee, and MV Partners and its affiliates have no ability to manage or influence the operations of the trust. The underlying properties, for
which MV Partners is designated as the operator, are currently operated on a contract operator basis by Vess Oil Corporation, which we refer to herein as "Vess Oil," and Murfin Drilling
Company, Inc., which we refer to herein as "Murfin Drilling," each of which is an affiliate of MV Energy, LLC, which we refer to herein as "MV Energy," the sole manager of MV Partners.
MV Partners does not, as a matter of course, make public projections as to future sales, earnings or other results relating to the underlying properties.

Description of the Trust Units

Each trust unit is a unit of beneficial interest in the trust and is entitled to receive cash distributions from the trust on a pro
rata basis. Each trust unitholder has the same rights regarding each of his trust units as every other trust unitholder has regarding his units. The trust units are in book-entry form only and are not
represented by certificates. The trust had 11,500,000 trust units outstanding as of March 12, 2015.

Distributions and Income Computations

Each quarter, the trustee will determine the amount of funds available for distribution to the trust unitholders. Available funds are
the excess cash, if any, received by the trust from the net profits interest and other sources (such as interest earned on any amounts reserved by the trustee) in that quarter, over the trust's
expenses for that quarter. Available funds will be reduced by any cash the

7

---



Table of Contents

trustee
decides to hold as a reserve against future expenses. It is expected that quarterly cash distributions during the term of the trust will be made by the trustee on or before the
25th day of the month following the end of each quarter to the trust unitholders of record on the 15th day of the month following the end of each quarter (or
the next succeeding business day).

Unless
otherwise advised by counsel or the Internal Revenue Service, which we refer to herein as the "IRS," the trustee will treat the income and expenses of the trust for each quarter
as belonging to the trust unitholders of record on the quarterly record date. For federal income tax purposes, trust unitholders must take into account items of income, gain, loss, deduction and
credit consistent with their methods of accounting and without regard to the taxable year or accounting method employed by the trust and without regard to the quarter in which the trust makes
distributions related to those items to the trust unitholders. Variances between taxable income and cash distributions may occur. For example, the trustee could establish a reserve in one quarter
using funds that would be included in income in the quarter in which the reserve is created but may not result in a tax deduction or a distribution until a later quarter or possibly in a later taxable
year. Similarly, the trustee could also make a payment in one quarter that would be amortized for income tax purposes over several quarters. See "Federal Income Tax Matters."

Periodic Reports

The trustee files all required trust federal and state income tax and information returns. The trustee prepares and provides the tax
information that trust unitholders need to correctly report their share of the income and deductions of the trust. The trustee also causes to be prepared and filed reports required to be filed under
the Exchange Act and by the rules of any securities exchange or quotation system on which the trust units are listed or admitted to trading, and also causes the trust to comply with the provisions of
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, including but not limited to, by establishing, evaluating and maintaining a system of internal controls over financial reporting in compliance with the requirements of
Section 404 thereof.

Each
trust unitholder and his representatives may examine, for any proper purpose, during reasonable business hours, the records of the trust and the trustee.

Liability of Trust Unitholders

Under the Delaware Statutory Trust Act, trust unitholders are entitled to the same limitation of personal liability extended to
stockholders of private corporations for profit under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. No assurance can be given, however, that the courts in jurisdictions outside of Delaware
will give effect to such limitation.

Voting Rights of Trust Unitholders

The trustee or trust unitholders owning at least 10% of the outstanding trust units may call meetings of trust unitholders. The trust
is responsible for all costs associated with calling a meeting of trust unitholders unless such meeting is called by the trust unitholders, in which case the trust unitholders are responsible for all
costs associated with calling such meeting of trust unitholders. Meetings must be held in such location as is designated by the trustee in the notice of such meeting. The trustee must send written
notice of the time and place of the meeting and the matters to be acted upon to all of the trust unitholders at least 20 days and not more than 60 days before the meeting. Trust
unitholders representing a majority of trust units outstanding must be present or represented to have a quorum. Each trust unitholder is entitled to one vote for each trust unit owned.

Unless
otherwise required by the trust agreement, a matter may be approved or disapproved by the vote of a majority of the trust units held by the trust unitholders at a meeting where
there is a

8

---



Table of Contents

quorum.
This is true even if a majority of the total trust units did not approve it. The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding trust units is required
to:



In
addition, certain amendments to the trust agreement may be made by the trustee without approval of the trust unitholders. The trustee must consent before all or any part of the trust
assets can be sold except in connection with the dissolution of the trust or limited sales directed by MV Partners in conjunction with its sale of underlying properties.

Duration of the Trust; Sale of the Net Profits Interest

The trust will remain in existence until the later to occur of (1) June 30, 2026, or (2) the time when 14.4 MMBoe
have been produced from the underlying properties and sold (which amount is the equivalent of 11.5 MMBoe in respect of the trust's right to receive 80% of the net proceeds from the underlying
properties pursuant to the net profits interest). The trust will dissolve prior to its termination if:



Upon
dissolution, the trustee would then sell all of the trust's assets, either by private sale or public auction, and distribute the net proceeds of the sale to the trust unitholders.

Computation of Net Proceeds

The provisions of the conveyance governing the computation of the net proceeds are detailed and extensive. The following information
summarizes the material information contained in the conveyance related to the computation of the net proceeds. For more detailed provisions concerning the net profits interest, please see the
conveyance, which is referenced as an exhibit to this Form 10-K.

Net Profits Interest

The term net profits interest was conveyed to the trust by MV Partners on January 24, 2007 by means of a conveyance instrument
that has been recorded in the appropriate real property records in each county in Kansas and Colorado where the oil and natural gas properties to which the underlying properties relate are located.
The net profits interest burdens the net interests owned by MV Partners in the underlying properties in existence as of January 24, 2007.

The
amounts paid to the trust for the net profits interest are based on the definitions of "gross proceeds" and "net proceeds" contained in the conveyance and described below. Under the
conveyance, net proceeds are computed quarterly, and 80% of the aggregate net proceeds attributable to a computation period will be paid to the trust on or before the 25th day of
the month following the

9

---



Table of Contents

computation
period. MV Partners will not pay to the trust any interest on the net proceeds held by MV Partners prior to payment to the trust. The trustee will make distributions to trust unitholders
quarterly, if sufficient funds are available. See "Description of the Trust UnitsDistributions and Income Computations."

"Gross
proceeds" mean the aggregate amount received by MV Partners from sales of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids produced from the underlying properties (other than amounts
received for certain future non-consent operations).

Gross
proceeds does not include consideration for the transfer or sale of any underlying property by MV Partners or any subsequent owner to any new owner unless the net profits interest
is released (as is permitted in certain circumstances). Gross proceeds also does not include any amount for oil, natural gas or natural gas liquids lost in production or marketing or used by the owner
of the underlying properties in drilling, production and plant operations. Gross proceeds includes payments for future production if they are not subject to repayment in the event of insufficient
subsequent production.

"Net
proceeds" means gross proceeds less the following:



10

---



Table of Contents

During
each twelve-month period beginning on the later to occur of (1) June 30, 2023 and (2) the time when 13.2 MMBoe have been produced from the underlying
properties and sold (which is the equivalent of 10.6 MMBoe in respect of the net profits interest), which we refer to, in either case, as the "Capital Expenditure Limitation Date", the sum of the
capital expenditures and amounts reserved for approved capital expenditure projects for such twelve- month period may not exceed the Average Annual Capital Expenditure Amount. The "Average Annual
Capital Expenditure Amount" means the quotient of (x) the sum of the capital expenditures and amounts reserved for approved capital expenditure projects with respect to the three twelve-month
periods ending on the Capital Expenditure Limitation Date, divided by (y) three. Commencing on the Capital Expenditure Limitation Date, and each anniversary of the Capital Expenditure
Limitation Date thereafter, the Average Annual Capital Expenditure Amount will be increased by 2.5% to account for expected increased costs due to inflation.

As
is customary in the oil and natural gas industry, MV Partners pays an overhead fee to Vess Oil and Murfin Drilling to operate the underlying properties on behalf of MV Partners. The
operating activities include various engineering, accounting and administrative functions. The fee is based on a monthly charge per active operated well, which totaled $2.9 million in 2012,
$3.1 million in 2013 and $3.2 million in 2014 for all of the underlying properties for which MV Partners was designated as the operator. The fee is adjusted annually and will increase or
decrease each year based on changes in the year-end index of average weekly earnings of crude petroleum and natural gas workers.

In
the event that the net proceeds for any computation period is a negative amount, the trust will receive no payment for that period, and any such negative amount plus accrued interest
at the prime rate will be deducted from gross proceeds in the following computation period for purposes of determining the net proceeds for that following computation period.

Gross
proceeds and net proceeds are calculated on a cash receipts and cash disbursements basis.

Additional Provisions

If a controversy arises as to the sales price of any production, then for purposes of determining gross
proceeds:



The
trustee is not obligated to return any cash received from the net profits interest. Any overpayments made to the trust by MV Partners due to adjustments to prior calculations of net
proceeds or otherwise will reduce future amounts payable to the trust until MV Partners recovers the overpayments plus interest at the prime rate.

The
conveyance generally permits MV Partners to transfer without the consent or approval of the trust unitholders all or any part of its interest in the underlying properties, subject to
the net profits interest. The trust unitholders are not entitled to any proceeds of a sale or transfer of MV Partners' interest unless the trust is required to sell the net profits interest as to such
interest. Following a sale or transfer, the underlying properties will continue to be subject to the net profits interest, and the net proceeds attributable to the transferred property will be
calculated as part of the computation of net proceeds described in this Form 10-K.

Table of Contents

In
addition, MV Partners may, without the consent of the trust unitholders, require the trust to release the net profits interest associated with any lease that accounts for less than or
equal to 0.25% of the total production from the underlying properties in the prior 12 months and provided that the net profits interest covered by such releases cannot exceed, during any
12-month period, an aggregate fair market value to the trust of $500,000. These releases will be made only in connection with a sale by MV
Partners of the relevant underlying properties and are conditioned upon the trust receiving an amount equal to the fair market value to the trust of such net profits interest. Any net sales proceeds
paid to the trust are distributable to trust unitholders for the quarter in which they are received.

As
the designated operator of the properties comprising the underlying properties, MV Partners may enter into farm-out, operating, participation and other similar agreements to develop
the property. MV Partners may enter into any of these agreements without the consent or approval of the trustee or any trust unitholder.

MV
Partners and any transferee of an underlying property will have the right to abandon its interest in any well or property if it reasonably believes the well or property ceases to
produce or is not capable of producing in commercially paying quantities. In making such decisions, MV Partners or any transferee of an underlying property is required under the applicable conveyance
to act as a reasonably prudent operator in the State of Kansas under the same or similar circumstances would act if it were acting with respect to its own properties, disregarding the existence of the
net profits interest as a burden on such property. Upon termination of the lease, the portion of the net profits interest relating to the abandoned property will be extinguished.

MV
Partners must maintain books and records sufficient to determine the amounts payable for the net profits interest to the trust. Quarterly and annually, MV Partners must deliver to the
trustee a statement of the computation of the net proceeds for each computation period. The trustee has the right to inspect and copy the books and records maintained by MV Partners during normal
business hours and upon reasonable notice.

Federal Income Tax Matters

The following is a summary of certain federal income tax matters that may be relevant to trust unitholders. This summary is based upon
current provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, which we refer to herein as the "Code," existing and proposed Treasury regulations thereunder and current administrative rulings
and court decisions, all of which are subject to changes or different interpretation at any time, possibly with retroactive effect. No attempt has been made in the following summary to comment on all
federal income tax matters affecting the trust or the trust unitholders.

The
summary is limited to trust unitholders who are individual citizens or residents of the United States. Accordingly, the following summary has limited application to domestic
corporations and persons subject to specialized federal income tax treatment.Each trust unitholder should consult his own tax advisor with respect to his particular
circumstances.

Classification and Taxation of the Trust

Tax counsel to the trust advised the trust at the time of formation that, for federal income tax purposes, in its opinion the trust
will be treated as a grantor trust and not as an unincorporated business entity. No ruling has been or will be requested from the IRS with respect to the federal income tax treatment of the trust,
including as to the status of the trust as a grantor trust for such purposes. Thus, no assurance can be provided that the tax treatment of the trust would be sustained by a court if contested by the
IRS or another taxing authority. The remainder of the discussion below is based on tax counsel's opinion, at the time of formation, that the trust will be classified as a grantor trust for federal
income tax purposes. As a grantor trust, the trust will not be subject to federal income

tax
at the trust level. Rather, each trust unitholder will be considered for federal income tax purposes to own its proportionate share of the trust's assets directly as though no trust were in
existence. The income of the trust is deemed to be received or accrued by the trust unitholder at the time such income is received or accrued by the trust, rather than when distributed by the trust.
Each trust unitholder will be subject to tax on its proportionate share of the income and gain attributable to the assets of the trust and will be entitled to claim its proportionate share of the
deductions and expenses attributable to the assets of the trust, subject to applicable limitations, in accordance with the trust unitholder's taxable year and tax method of accounting and without
regard to the taxable year or accounting method employed by the trust.

The
trust will allocate items of income, gain, loss, deductions and credits to trust unitholders based on record ownership at each quarterly record date. It is possible that the IRS or
another taxing authority could disagree with this allocation method and could assert that income and deductions of the trust should be determined and allocated on a daily, prorated or other basis,
which could require adjustments to the tax returns of the trust unitholders affected by this issue and result in an increase in the administrative expense of the trust in subsequent periods.

Classification of the Net Profits Interest

Tax counsel to the trust also advised the trust at the time of formation that, for federal income tax purposes, based upon
representations made by MV Partners regarding the expected economic life of the underlying properties and the expected duration of the net profits interest, in its opinion the net profits interest
should be treated as a "production payment" under Section 636 of the Code or otherwise as a debt instrument. On the basis of that advice, the trust will treat the net profits interest as
indebtedness subject to Treasury regulations applicable to contingent payment debt instruments, and by purchasing trust units, a trust unitholder agrees to be bound by the trust's application of those
regulations, including the trust's determination of the rate at which interest is deemed to accrue on the net profits interest. No assurance can be given that the IRS or another taxing authority will
not assert that the net profits interest should be treated differently. Any such different treatment could affect the amount, timing and character of income, gain or loss in respect of an investment
in trust units and could require a trust unitholder to accrue income at a rate different than that determined by the trust.

Widely Held Fixed Investment Trust Reporting Information

The trustee assumes that some trust units are held by middlemen, as such term is broadly defined in Treasury regulations (and includes
custodians, nominees, certain joint owners, and brokers holding an interest for a custodian in street name). Therefore, the trustee considers the trust to be a non-mortgage widely held fixed
investment trust ("WHFIT") for federal income tax purposes. The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., 919 Congress Avenue, Austin, Texas 78701, telephone number 1-855-802-1094, is the
representative of the trust that will provide tax information in accordance with applicable Treasury regulations governing the information reporting requirements of the trust as a WHFIT.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the middlemen holding trust units on behalf of trust unitholders, and not the trustee of the trust, are solely responsible for complying with the information reporting
requirements under the Treasury regulations with respect to such trust units, including the issuance of IRS Forms 1099 and certain written tax statements. Trust unitholders whose trust units
are held by middlemen should consult with such middlemen regarding the information that will be reported to them by the middlemen with respect to the trust units. Any generic tax information provided
by the trustee of the trust is intended to be used only to assist trust unitholders in the preparation of their federal and state income tax returns.

Available Trust Tax Information

In compliance with the reporting requirements for WHFITs and the dissemination of trust tax reporting information, the trustee provides
a generic tax information reporting booklet that is intended to be used only to assist unitholders in the preparation of their 2014 federal and state income tax returns. The projected payment schedule
for the net profits interest is included with the tax information booklet. This tax information booklet can be obtained at http://mvo.investorhq.businesswire.com.

Description of the Underlying Properties

The underlying properties consist of MV Partners' net interests in all of its oil and natural gas properties as of January 24,
2007, which properties are located in the Mid-Continent region in the States of Kansas and Colorado. Affiliates of MV Partners are the contract operators of substantially all of the underlying
properties.

MV
Partners' interests in the underlying properties require MV Partners to bear its proportionate share, along with the other working interest owners, of the costs of development and
operation of such properties. The underlying properties are burdened by non-working interests owned by third parties, consisting primarily of royalty interests retained by the owners of the land
subject to the working interests. These landowners' royalty interests typically entitle the landowner to receive 12.5% of the revenue derived from oil and natural gas production resulting from wells
drilled on their land, without any deduction for drilling costs or other costs related to production of oil and natural gas. A working interest percentage represents a working interest owner's
proportionate ownership interest in a property in relation to all other working interest owners in that property, whereas a net revenue interest percentage is a working interest owner's percentage of
production after reducing such percentage by the percentage of burdens on such production such as royalties and overriding royalties.

Based
on the reserve report, the net profits interest would entitle the trust to receive net proceeds from the sale of production of not less than 11.5 MMBoe of proved reserves
attributable to the underlying properties expected to be produced during the term of the net profits interest, calculated as 80% of the proved reserves attributable to the underlying properties
expected to be produced during the term of the net profits interest. The reserves attributable to the underlying properties include all reserves expected to be economically produced during the life of
the properties, whereas the trust is entitled to only receive 80% of the net proceeds from the sale of production of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids attributable to the underlying properties
during the term of the net profits interest.

The
Mid-Continent region is a mature producing region with well-known geologic characteristics. Most of the production from the underlying properties consists of desirable crude oil of a
quality level between sweet and sour with 33 to 34 gravity averages. Most of the producing wells to which the underlying properties relate are relatively shallow, ranging from 600 to 4,500 feet, and
many are completed to multiple producing zones. In general, the producing wells to which the underlying properties relate have stable production profiles and their production is generally long-lived,
often with total projected economic lives over 50 years.

Reserves

The engineering departments of each of Vess Oil and Murfin Drilling, which together manage MV Partners and operate the
underlying properties on behalf of MV Partners, maintain oversight and compliance responsibility for the internal reserve estimate process and, in accordance with internal policies and
procedures, provide appropriate data to independent third party engineers for the annual estimation of year-end reserves. These engineering departments accumulate historical production data for the
underlying properties, calculate historical lease operating expenses and differentials, update working interests and net revenue interests, and obtain logs, 3-D seismic and other geological and
geophysical information. This data is forwarded to CG&A, thereby allowing CG&A to prepare estimated proved reserves in their entirety based on such data.

Estimates of the proved oil and gas reserves attributable to the trust as of December 31, 2012, 2013 and 2014 are based on reports prepared by CG&A. CG&A
has been in business since 1961 and serves many organizations and individuals in the petroleum industry, including owners and operators of oil and gas properties, exploration groups, planners, and
professionals in investment and finance. One of the principal businesses of CG&A is providing detailed assessment of producing reservoirs. CG&A is an independent firm of petroleum engineers,
geologists, geophysicists and petrophysicists and does not own an interest in the underlying properties and is not employed on a contingent basis. Mr. W. Todd Brooker, Senior Vice President, is
the technical person at CG&A who is primarily responsible for overseeing CG&A's preparation of the reserve estimates. Mr. Brooker is a graduate of the University of Texas at Austin with a
Bachelor of Science degree in Petroleum Engineering and has 23 years of experience in petroleum engineering. He is a licensed professional engineer in the State of Texas (License #83462).

Oil
and gas proved reserves are disclosed by significant geographic area, using the 12-month average beginning-of-month price for the year, based on the use of reliable technologies to
estimate proved oil and gas reserves, if those technologies have been demonstrated to result in reliable conclusions about reserves volumes. Reserve and related information for 2012, 2013 and 2014 is
presented consistent with these requirements.

The
net profits interest entitles the trust to receive 80% of the net proceeds attributable to MV Partners' interest from the sale of production from the underlying properties. The net
profits interest will terminate on the later to occur of (1) June 30, 2026, or (2) the time when 14.4 MMBoe have been produced from the underlying properties and sold, and the
trust will soon thereafter wind up its affairs and terminate. Based on the reserve report, CG&A estimated that the trust would terminate June 30, 2026 based on the calculation that 14.4 MMBoe
would have been produced from the underlying properties and sold (which amount is the equivalent of 11.5 MMBoe in respect of the trust's right to receive 80% of the net proceeds from the underlying
properties pursuant to the net profits interest) prior to this date.

Oil
and gas prices were adjusted to a WTI Cushing oil price of $94.99 per Bbl and a Henry Hub natural gas price of $4.309 per MMbtu. As specified by the SEC, these prices are 12-month
averages based upon the price on the first day of each month during 2014. The price adjustments were based on oil price differentials forecast at $7.10 per Bbl for all properties. Oil
price differentials were not escalated. Gas and NGL price differentials were forecast on a per property basis as provided by MV Partners and were also not escalated. Price differentials include
adjustments for transportation and basis differential. Gas prices were further adjusted with a heating value (Btu content) applied on a per-property basis. Operating expenses, workover expenses, COPAS
overhead charges and investments were forecast on a per property basis as furnished by MV Partners. Expenses and investments were held constant in accordance with SEC rules and guidelines. Severance
tax rates were applied at normal

state
percentages of oil and gas revenue, except for those Kansas producing properties that are severance tax exempt. Ad valorem taxes of 3.0% of total revenue were applied to each property as
provided by MV Partners. Oil and gas conservation tax rates were applied to all Kansas properties at the applicable rates.

The
estimates of proved oil and natural gas reserves attributable to the underlying properties are based on estimates prepared by CG&A. Rules and guidelines established by the SEC
regarding the present value of future net revenues were used to prepare these reserve estimates. Oil and natural gas reserve engineering is a subjective process of estimating underground accumulations
of oil and natural gas that cannot be measured in an exact manner, and estimates of other engineers might differ materially from those included in the report. The accuracy of any reserve estimate is a
function of the quality of available data and engineering, and estimates may justify revisions based on the results of drilling, testing, and production activities. Accordingly, reserve estimates are
inherently imprecise and should not be construed as representing the actual quantities of future production or cash flows to be realized from oil and natural gas properties or the fair market value of
such properties.

Producing Acreage and Well Counts

For the following data, "gross" refers to the total wells or acres in which MV Partners owns a working interest and "net" refers to
gross wells or acres multiplied by the percentage working interest owned by MV Partners. Although many of MV Partners' wells produce both oil and natural gas, a well is categorized as an oil well or a
natural gas well based upon the ratio of oil to natural gas production.

The
underlying properties are interests in developed properties located in oil and natural gas producing regions of Kansas and eastern Colorado. The following is a summary of the
approximate acreage of the underlying properties at December 31, 2014.

During
the years ended December 31, 2012, 2013 and 2014, MV Partners drilled, completed and commenced production with respect to 7, 5 and 8 wells, respectively, on the underlying
properties. As of December 31, 2014, no wells were being drilled. Capital expenditures associated with converting proved undeveloped reserves to proved developed reserves for the year ended
December 31, 2014, were $1.84 million. MV Partners continues to develop further proved undeveloped reserves pursuant to its planned development and workover program. See "Trustee's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsPlanned Development and Workover Program."

Major Producing Areas

Approximately 62% of the net acres included in the underlying properties are located in the El Dorado Area, which is located in
southeastern Kansas, and in the Northwest Kansas Area. The underlying properties are all located in mature fields that are characterized by long production histories. The properties provide continual
workover and developmental opportunities which MV Partners has pursued to reduce the natural decline in production from the underlying properties.

El Dorado Area

The underlying properties located in the El Dorado Area are operated on behalf of MV Partners by Vess Oil and are located in the El
Dorado, Augusta and Valley Center Fields. Vess Oil has actively pursued infill drilling, well re-entries, plugback and deepening recompletion operations, various types of restimulation work and
equipment optimization programs to reduce the natural decline in production from these fields.

El Dorado Field.The El Dorado Field is located atop the Nemaha Ridge in Central Butler County, Kansas and was first discovered in
1915. Up to 15
horizons have been reported to contain hydrocarbons, ranging from the Admire Sands, at a depth of 650 feet, to the Arbuckle Dolomite, at a depth of 2,500 feet. The primary producing intervals are the
Admire, Lansing-Kansas City, Viola, Simpson and Arbuckle. Cumulative production of all producers from the El Dorado Field has exceeded 300 MMBbls of oil with production peaking between 1916 and 1918,
reaching 116,000 Bbls per day in 1918.

Augusta Field.The Augusta Field is on a trend similar to the nearby El Dorado Field and strikes northeast parallel to the Nemaha
Ridge. The field
was discovered in 1914 and covers approximately 10 square miles of Butler County, Kansas. The primary producing interval has been the Arbuckle with additional production coming from the Simpson
and Lansing-Kansas City intervals. Cumulative production of all producers from the Augusta Field has exceeded 48 MMBbls of oil. The Augusta Field is largely an extension of the El Dorado Field and has
very similar geological characteristics.

Vess
Oil has maintained constant activity in these fields to increase production. Vess Oil plans to drill additional infill developmental wells in the Arbuckle, Lansing-Kansas City,
Simpson and Whitecloud intervals in the El Dorado area during the next five years. Vess Oil also plans to maintain its annual recompletion and workover program over the next five years. Vess Oil has
commenced a waterflood program to enhance production from the Whitecloud formation. Vess Oil plans to convert wells as the infill developmental drilling program proceeds.

Valley Center Field.The Valley Center Field was discovered in 1928 and covers approximately 60 square miles of Sedgwick County,
Kansas.
Production is primarily from the Viola interval, which is located at an average depth of 2,500 feet. Cumulative production of all producers from the Valley Center Field has exceeded 25 MMBbls of oil.
The Valley Center Field has similar geological characteristics as the El Dorado Field.

Northwest Kansas Area

Each of Vess Oil and Murfin Drilling operate leases on behalf of MV Partners included in the underlying properties that are located in
the Northwest Kansas Area. The primary fields in this area are the Bemis-Shutts, Trapp, Ray and Hansen Fields. Vess Oil and Murfin Drilling have actively pursued polymer treatments, stimulation
workovers and recompletion operations to reduce the natural decline in production from these fields.

Bemis-Shutts Field.The Bemis-Shutts Field is located on the Fairport Anticline within the Central Kansas Uplift and was discovered in
1928. The
field consists of 17,080 acres in northeastern Ellis and southeastern Rooks Counties, Kansas. Production has been from multiple pay zones with the primary formation being the Arbuckle interval at a
depth of 3,300 feet and the Lansing-Kansas City interval at a depth of 2,800 feet. Cumulative production of all producers from the Bemis-Shutts Field has exceeded 248 MMBbls of oil.

Both
Vess Oil and Murfin Drilling have pursued polymer treatment programs with success in the Bemis-Shutts Field and plan to continue these workovers. MV Partners has continued to
acquire 3-D seismic surveys over portions of the field to further define the boundaries of the Arbuckle structure in the field and to evaluate undrilled infill locations. This data is processed as
received and currently there are over 17 potential infill drilling locations that have been identified. MV Partners plans to drill these locations over the next five years.

Trapp Field.The Trapp Field consists of 35,900 acres in Russell and Barton Counties, Kansas and was discovered in 1929. Production has
primarily
been from the Lansing-Kansas City and Shawnee limestones and the Arbuckle dolomite. Cumulative production of all producers from the Trapp Field has exceeded 239 MMBbls of oil.

Hansen and Ray Fields.The Hansen Field is located along the crest of the Stuttgart-Huffstutor Anticline and was discovered in 1943.
Production from
this field has primarily come from the Lansing-Kansas City limestone. Cumulative production of all producers from the Hansen Field has exceeded 9.2 MMBbls of oil.

The
Ray Field is located on the eastern flank of the Central Kansas Uplift and was discovered in 1940. Production has primarily been from the Arbuckle dolomite and the Gorham sands with
additional production from the Lansing-Kansas City interval along the eastern flank of the field. Cumulative production of all producers from the Ray Field has exceeded 18 MMBbls of oil.

The
Hansen and Ray Fields consist of over 7,000 acres in Philips and Norton Counties, Kansas.

Murfin
Drilling operates the leases held by MV Partners in the Trapp, Hansen and Ray Fields. Murfin Drilling has informed the trustee that it plans to drill and workover and recomplete
additional wells, including acid stimulations, over the next five years.

Marketing and Post-Production Services

Pursuant to the terms of the conveyance that created the net profits interest, MV Partners has the responsibility to market, or cause
to be marketed, the oil, natural gas and natural gas liquid production attributable to the underlying properties. The terms of the conveyance that created the net profits interest do not permit MV
Partners to charge any marketing fee when determining the net proceeds upon which the net profits interest is calculated. As a result, the net proceeds to the trust from the sales of oil, natural gas
and natural gas liquid production from the underlying properties are determined based on the same price that MV Partners receives for oil, natural gas and natural gas liquid production attributable to
MV Partners' remaining interest in the underlying properties.

Vess
Oil and Murfin Drilling, as contract operators, generally sell production from the underlying properties to several purchasers, including MV Purchasing, LLC, which we refer
to herein as "MV Purchasing," under short-term arrangements using market sensitive pricing. MV Purchasing is majority owned by the indirect equity owners of MV Partners. These sales to purchasers are
under terms ranging from one month to six months, using market sensitive pricing. Two purchasers, including MV Purchasing, have been purchasing substantially all of the crude oil production, and a
substantial portion of the crude oil production may continue be acquired by one or more single purchasers. For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2013 and 2014, MV Purchasing purchased 76%, 75%
and 75%, respectively, of the production sold from the underlying properties. MV Partners does not believe that loss of any of these parties as a purchaser would have a material adverse impact on the
business of MV Partners, as substitute purchasers are generally available; however, a purchaser's failure to pay for purchased crude oil could have a significant adverse impact on MV Partners'
business.

Oil
production is typically transported by truck from the field to the closest gathering facility or refinery. MV Partners sells the majority of the oil production from the underlying
properties under short-term arrangements using market sensitive pricing. The price received by MV Partners for the oil production from the underlying properties is usually based on the NYMEX price
applied to equal daily quantities on the month of delivery, which price is then reduced for differentials based upon delivery location and oil quality. The average differential for oil production
during the years ended December 31, 2012, 2013 and 2014 were $6.60, $6.44 and $6.53 per barrel, respectively.

All
natural gas produced by MV Partners is marketed and sold to third-party purchasers. The natural gas is sold on a contract basis and, in all but one case, the contracts are in their
secondary terms and are on a month-to-month basis. In all cases, the contract price is based on a percentage of a published regional index price, after adjustments for Btu content, transportation and
related charges.

Sale and Abandonment of Underlying Properties

MV Partners and any transferee of any of the underlying properties will have the right to abandon its interest in any well or property
comprising a portion of the underlying properties if, in its opinion, such well or property ceases to produce or is not capable of producing in commercially paying quantities. To reduce or eliminate
the potential conflict of interest between MV Partners and the trust in determining whether a well is capable of producing in commercially paying quantities, MV Partners is required under the
conveyance to act as a reasonably prudent operator in the State of Kansas under the same or similar circumstances would act if it were acting with respect to its own properties, disregarding the
existence of the net profits interest as a burden on such property. For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2013 and 2014, MV Partners plugged and abandoned 15, 17 and 22 wells, respectively,
based on its determination that such wells were no longer economical to operate or restore to production.

MV
Partners generally may sell all or a portion of its interests in the underlying properties, subject to and burdened by the net profits interest, without the consent of the trust
unitholders. In addition, MV Partners may, without the consent of the trust unitholders, require the trust to release the net profits interest associated with any lease that accounts for less than or
equal to 0.25% of the total production from the underlying properties in the prior 12 months and provided that the net profits interest covered by such releases cannot exceed, during any
12-month period, an aggregate fair market value to the trust of $500,000. These releases will be made only in connection with a sale by MV Partners of the relevant underlying properties and are
conditioned upon the trust receiving an amount equal to the fair value to the trust of such net profits interest. Any net sales proceeds paid to the trust are distributable to trust unitholders for
the quarter in which they are received.

Title to Properties

The underlying properties are subject to certain burdens that are described in more detail below. To the extent that these burdens and
obligations affect MV Partners' rights to production and the value of production from the underlying properties, they have been taken into account in calculating the trust's interests and in
estimating the size and the value of the reserves attributable to the underlying properties.

MV
Partners' interests in the underlying properties are typically subject, in one degree or another, to one or more of the following:



22

---



Table of Contents



MV
Partners has informed the trustee that MV Partners believes that the burdens and obligations affecting the underlying properties are conventional in the industry for similar
properties. MV Partners also has informed the trustee that MV Partners believes that the existing burdens and obligations do not, in the aggregate, materially interfere with the use of the underlying
properties and do not materially adversely affect the value of the net profits interest.

MV
Partners acquired the underlying properties in two transactions, the first of which was in 1998 when it acquired a substantial portion of the underlying properties from a major oil
and gas company and the second of which was in 1999 when it acquired the remaining portion of the underlying properties from a large independent oil and gas company. At the time of its acquisition of
the underlying properties, MV Partners believes that it undertook a thorough title examination of the underlying properties.

MV
Partners has recorded the conveyance of the net profits interest in the real property records in each Kansas County where the properties are located. MV Partners has informed the
trustee that MV Partners believes that the delivery and recording of the conveyance constituted fully conveyed and vested property interests in the trust under Kansas law. Although no assurance can be
given, MV Partners has informed the trustee that MV Partners believes that, if, during the term of the trust, MV Partners becomes involved as a debtor in a bankruptcy proceeding, the conveyance of the
net profits interest, as vested and recorded property interests, cannot be avoided by a bankruptcy trustee. If in such a proceeding a determination were made that the conveyance constitutes an
executory contract and the net profits interest is not a fully conveyed property interest under the laws of Kansas, and if such contract were not to be assumed in a bankruptcy proceeding involving MV
Partners, the trust
would be treated as an unsecured creditor of MV Partners with respect to such net profits interest in the pending bankruptcy proceeding.

Oil
and gas leases are real property interests under Colorado law. Net profits interests are non-operating, non-possessory interests carved out of the oil and gas leasehold estate. MV
Partners has informed the trustee that MV Partners believes that it is possible that the net profits interest for the underlying properties located in Colorado may not be treated as a real property
interest under the laws of Colorado. MV Partners has recorded the conveyance of the net profits interest in the real property records of Colorado in accordance with local recording acts. MV Partners
has informed the trustee that MV Partners believes that, if, during the term of the trust, MV Partners becomes involved as a debtor in a bankruptcy proceeding, the net profits interest relating to the
underlying properties located in Colorado should be treated as a fully conveyed personal property interest under the laws of Colorado. In such a proceeding, however, a determination could be made that
the conveyance constitutes an executory contract and the net profits interest is not a fully conveyed personal property interest under the laws of Colorado, and if such contract were not to be assumed
in a bankruptcy proceeding involving MV Partners, the trust would be treated as an unsecured creditor of MV Partners with respect to such net profits interest in the pending bankruptcy proceeding.
Although no assurance can be given, MV Partners does not believe that the conveyance of the net profits interest relating to the underlying properties located in Colorado should be subject to
rejection in a bankruptcy proceeding as an executory contract.

Competition and Markets

The oil and natural gas industry is highly competitive. MV Partners competes with major oil and natural gas companies and independent
oil and natural gas companies for oil and natural gas,

23

---



Table of Contents

equipment,
personnel and markets for the sale of oil and natural gas. Many of these competitors are financially stronger than MV Partners, but even financially troubled competitors can affect the
market because of their need to sell oil and natural gas at any price to attempt to maintain cash flow. The trust is subject to the same competitive conditions as MV Partners and other companies in
the oil and natural gas industry.

Oil
and natural gas compete with other forms of energy available to customers, primarily based on price. These alternate forms of energy include electricity, coal and fuel oils. Changes
in the availability
or price of oil, natural gas or other forms of energy, as well as business conditions, conservation, legislation, regulations and the ability to convert to alternate fuels and other forms of energy
may affect the demand for oil and natural gas.

Future
price fluctuations for oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids will directly impact trust distributions, estimates of reserves attributable to the trust's interests and estimated
and actual future net revenues to the trust. In view of the many uncertainties that affect the supply and demand for oil and natural gas, neither the trust nor MV Partners can make reliable
predictions of future oil and natural gas supply and demand, future product prices or the effect of future product prices on the trust.

Regulation

The production of oil and gas from the underlying properties is affected by many state and federal regulations with respect to
allowable rates of production, drilling permits, well spacing, marketing, environmental matters and pricing. Future regulations could change allowable rates of production or the manner in which oil
and gas operations may be lawfully conducted.

FERC Regulation

Historically, the transportation and sale for resale of natural gas in interstate commerce has been regulated by the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission, or FERC, under the Natural Gas Act of 1938, or NGA, the Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978, or NGPA, and regulations issued under those statutes. Over the last two decades, the FERC
has issued orders and adopted regulations resulting in a restructuring of the natural gas industry. The principal elements of this restructuring were the requirement that interstate pipelines
separate, or "unbundle," into individual components the various services offered on their systems, with all transportation services to be provided on a non-discriminatory basis, and the prohibition
against an interstate pipeline providing gas sales services except through separately organized affiliates. In various rulemaking proceedings following its initial unbundling requirement, the FERC has
refined its regulatory program applicable to interstate pipelines in various respects, and it has announced that it will continue to monitor these and other regulations to determine whether further
changes are needed. In addition to rulemaking proceedings, the FERC establishes new policies and regulations through policy statements and adjudications of individual pipeline matters. Further,
additional changes to regulations may occur based on actions taken by the United States Congress and/or the courts.

In
the past, the federal government has regulated the prices at which natural gas could be sold. While sales by producers of natural gas can currently be made at market prices, Congress
could reenact price controls in the future. Deregulation of wellhead natural gas sales began with the enactment of the NGPA and culminated in adoption of the Natural Gas Wellhead Decontrol Act which
removed all price controls affecting wellhead sales of natural gas effective January 1, 1993.

Sales
of crude oil, condensate, and natural gas liquids are not currently regulated and are made at negotiated prices. Nevertheless, Congress could reenact price controls in the future.
Sales of crude oil are affected by the availability, terms and cost of transportation. The transportation of oil in common carrier pipelines is subject to rate and access regulation. The FERC
regulates interstate oil pipeline

24

---



Table of Contents

transportation
rates under the Interstate Commerce Act. In general, interstate oil pipeline rates must be just and reasonable and may not be unduly discriminatory or confer any undue preference upon
any shopper. Rates generally are cost-based, although settlement rates agreed to by all shippers are permitted and market-based rates may be permitted in certain circumstances.

Although
the price at which MV Partners sells oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids is not currently subject to federal rate regulation and, for the most part, is not subject to state
regulation, with regard to physical sales of natural gas and oil, MV Partners is required to observe anti-market manipulation laws and related regulations enforced by the FERC and/or the Commodity
Futures Trading Commission, or the CFTC, and the Federal Trade Commission, or FTC. If MV Partners were to violate the anti-market manipulation laws and regulations, MV Partners could also be subject
to related third party damage claims by, among others, sellers, royalty owners and taxing authorities.

As
to these various developments, MV Partners has advised the trust that the on-going and evolving nature of these regulatory initiatives makes it impossible to predict their ultimate
impact on the prices, markets or terms of sale of natural gas related to the trust.

State and Other Regulation

In general, the jurisdictions in which royalty properties are located have statutory provisions regulating the production and sale of
crude oil and natural gas. The regulations often require permits for the drilling of wells but extend also to the spacing of wells, the prevention of
waste of oil and gas resources, the rate of production, prevention and clean-up of pollution and other matters.

Environmental Matters and Regulation

General.The operations of the underlying properties are subject to stringent and complex federal, state and local laws and regulations
governing
environmental protection as well as the discharge of materials into the environment. These laws and regulations may, among other things:



These
laws, rules and regulations may also restrict the rate of oil and natural gas production below the rate that would otherwise be possible. The regulatory burden on the oil and
natural gas industry increases the cost of doing business in the industry and consequently affects profitability. Additionally, Congress and federal and state agencies frequently revise environmental
laws and regulations, and any changes that result in more stringent and costly waste handling, disposal and cleanup requirements for the oil and natural gas industry could have a significant impact on
the operating costs of the underlying properties.

The
following is a summary of the existing laws, rules and regulations to which the operations of the underlying properties are subject that are material to the operation of the
underlying properties.

Waste Handling.The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, or RCRA, and comparable state statutes, regulate the generation,
transportation,
treatment, storage, disposal and cleanup of hazardous and non-hazardous wastes. Under the auspices of the federal Environmental Protection Agency, or EPA, the individual states administer some or all
of the provisions of RCRA, sometimes in conjunction with their own, more stringent requirements. Drilling fluids, produced waters and most of the other wastes associated with the exploration,
development and production of crude oil or natural gas are

25

---



Table of Contents

currently
regulated under RCRA's non-hazardous waste provisions. However, it is possible that certain oil and natural gas exploration and production wastes now classified as non-hazardous could be
classified as hazardous wastes in the future. Any such change could result in an increase in the costs to manage and dispose of wastes, which could have a material adverse effect on the cash
distributions to the trust unitholders.

Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act.The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and
Liability Act, or
CERCLA, also known as the Superfund law, imposes joint and several liability, without regard to fault or legality of conduct, on classes of persons who are considered to be responsible for the release
of a hazardous substance into the environment. These persons include the owner or operator of the site where the release occurred, and anyone who disposed or arranged for the disposal of a hazardous
substance released at the site. Under CERCLA, such persons may be subject to joint and several liability for the costs of cleaning up the hazardous substances that have been released into the
environment, for damages to natural resources and for the costs of certain health studies. In addition, it is not uncommon for neighboring landowners and other third-parties to file claims for
personal injury and property damage allegedly caused by the hazardous substances released into the environment.

The
underlying properties may have been used for oil and natural gas exploration and production for many years. Although MV Partners believes that it has utilized operating and waste
disposal practices that were standard in the industry at the time, hazardous substances, wastes or hydrocarbons may have been released on or under the properties, or on or under other locations,
including off-site locations, where such substances have been taken for disposal. In addition, the underlying properties may have been operated by third parties or by previous owners or operators
whose treatment and disposal of
hazardous substances, wastes or hydrocarbons was not under MV Partners' control. These properties and the substances disposed or released on them may be subject to CERCLA, RCRA and analogous state
laws. Under such laws, MV Partners could be required to remove previously disposed substances and wastes, remediate contaminated property, or perform remedial plugging or pit closure operations to
prevent future contamination.

Water Discharges.The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, or the Clean Water Act, and analogous state laws, impose restrictions and
strict controls
with respect to the discharge of pollutants, including spills and leaks of oil and other substances, into waters of the United States. The discharge of pollutants into regulated waters is prohibited,
except in accordance with the terms of a permit issued by the EPA or an analogous state agency. Federal and state regulatory agencies can impose administrative, civil and criminal penalties for
non-compliance with discharge permits or other requirements of the Clean Water Act and analogous state laws and regulations.

The
Oil Pollution Act of 1990, or the OPA, as amended, which amends the Clean Water Act, imposes strict liability on owners and operators of facilities that are the site of a release of
oil into waters of the United States. OPA and its associated regulations impose a variety of requirements on responsible parties related to the prevention of oil spills and liability for damages
resulting from such spills.

Air Emissions.The Federal Clean Air Act, and comparable state laws, regulate emissions of various air pollutants through air emissions
permitting
programs and the imposition of other requirements. In addition, the EPA has developed, and continues to develop, stringent regulations governing emissions of toxic air pollutants at specified sources.
Federal and state regulatory agencies can impose administrative, civil and criminal penalties for non-compliance with air permits or other requirements of the federal Clean Air Act and associated
state laws and regulations.

Climate Change.There has been support in various regions of the country for legislation that requires reductions in greenhouse gas
emissions, and
some states have already adopted legislation

26

---



Table of Contents

addressing
greenhouse gas emissions from various sources, primarily power plants. Kansas and Colorado have joined Western Climate Initiative, or WCI, a regional organization that is examining measures
to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The EPA has determined that greenhouse gases from
certain sources "endanger" public health or welfare. As a result, the EPA has begun to promulgate certain regulations and interpretations that will require new and modified stationary sources of
greenhouse gases above certain thresholds to report, limit or control such emissions. Currently, certain oil and gas operations must inventory and report greenhouse gas emissions. Laws, regulations,
treaties or international agreements related to greenhouse gases and climate change, including incentives to conserve energy or use alternative energy sources, could have a negative impact on the
future operations of MV Partners if such laws, regulations, treaties or international agreements reduce the worldwide demand for oil and natural gas or otherwise result in reduced economic activity
generally. In addition, such laws, regulations, treaties or international agreements could result in increased compliance costs or additional operating restrictions, which may have a negative impact
on MV Partners' operations. In addition to potential impacts on MV Partners' operations directly or indirectly resulting from climate-change legislation or regulations, MV Partners' operations also
could be negatively affected by climate-change related physical changes or changes in weather patterns including drought and severe storms. At this time, it is not possible to estimate accurately how
potential future laws or regulations addressing greenhouse gas emissions would impact the operations of MV Partners.

The
operations of the underlying properties are not adversely impacted by the current state and local climate change initiatives and, at this time, it is not possible to accurately
estimate how potential future laws or regulations addressing greenhouse gas emissions would impact the operations of the properties.

Endangered Species Act.The federal Endangered Species Act, or ESA, restricts activities that may affect endangered and threatened
species or their
habitats. The designation of previously unidentified endangered or threatened species could cause MV Partners to incur additional costs or become subject to operating delays, restrictions or bans in
the affected areas. While some of MV Partners' facilities or leased acreage may be located in areas that are designated as habitat for endangered or threatened species, MV Partners believes that it is
in substantial compliance with the ESA.

OSHA and Other Laws and Regulation.MV Partners is subject to the requirements of the federal Occupational Safety and Health Act, or
OSHA, and
comparable state statutes. The OSHA hazard communication standard, the EPA community right-to-know regulations under Title III of CERCLA and similar state statutes require that MV Partners organize
and/or disclose information about hazardous materials used or produced in its operations. MV Partners believes that it is in substantial compliance with these applicable requirements and with other
OSHA and comparable requirements.

MV
Partners believes that it is in substantial compliance with all existing environmental laws and regulations applicable to the current operations of the underlying properties and that
its continued compliance with existing requirements will not have a material adverse effect on the cash distributions to the trust unitholders. For instance, MV Partners did not incur any material
capital expenditures for remediation or pollution control activities for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2013 and 2014. Additionally, MV Partners has informed the trust that MV Partners is
not aware of any environmental issues or claims that will require material capital expenditures during 2015. However, there is no
assurance that the passage of more stringent laws or regulations in the future will not have a negative impact on the operations of the underlying properties and cash distributions to trust
unitholders.

Item 1A.    Risk Factors.

Prices of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids fluctuate and lower prices could reduce proceeds
to the trust and cash distributions to unitholders.

The reserves attributable to the underlying properties and the quarterly cash distributions of the trust are highly dependent upon the
prices realized from the sale of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids. Prices of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids can fluctuate widely on a quarter-to-quarter basis in response to a
variety of factors that are beyond the control of the trust and MV Partners. These factors include, among others:



Crude
oil prices have been volatile during the last several years and in 2014, ranged from a high of $107.26 to a low of $53.27. The NYMEX crude oil spot prices per Bbl were $91.82,
$98.42 and $53.27 as of December 31, 2012, 2013 and 2014, respectively. Neither MV Partners nor the trust can predict the timing or the duration of any economic cycle and, depending on the
prices realized, the operating results of MV Partners and the financial condition of the trust could be materially and adversely affected.

Although
MV Partners was permitted to, and did enter into, hedge contracts relating to a portion of the oil volumes expected to be produced from the underlying properties, those hedge
contracts expired in 2010, and MV Partners has not entered into any hedge contracts relating to oil volumes, and the terms of the conveyance of the net profits interest prohibit MV Partners from
entering into hedging arrangements for the benefit of the trust. As a result, the amounts of cash distributions by the trust may fluctuate significantly as a result of changes in commodity prices
because there will be no hedge contracts in place to reduce the effects of any changes in commodity prices.

Lower
prices of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids will reduce the amount of the net proceeds to which the trust is entitled and may ultimately reduce the amount of oil, natural
gas and natural gas liquids that is economic to produce from the underlying properties. As a result, the operator of any of the underlying properties could determine during periods of low commodity
prices to shut in or curtail production from wells on the underlying properties. In addition, the operator of the underlying properties could determine during periods of low commodity prices to plug
and abandon marginal wells that otherwise may have been allowed to continue to produce for a longer period under conditions of higher prices. Because the underlying properties are mature, with many of
them being in production since the early 1900s, decreases in commodity prices could have a more significant effect on the economic viability of these properties compared to more recently discovered
properties. The commodity price sensitivity of these mature wells is due to a culmination of factors that vary from well-to-well, including the additional costs associated with water handling and
disposal, chemicals, surface equipment maintenance, downhole casing repairs and reservoir pressure maintenance activities that are necessary

28

Table of Contents

to
maintain production. As a result, the volatility of commodity prices may cause the amount of future cash distributions to trust unitholders to fluctuate, and a substantial decline in the price of
oil, natural gas or natural gas liquids will reduce the amount of cash available for distribution to the trust unitholders.

Actual reserves and future production may be less than current estimates of proved reserves, which
could reduce cash distributions by the trust and the value of the trust units.

The value of the trust units and the amount of future cash distributions to the trust unitholders will depend upon, among other things,
the accuracy of the production and reserves estimated to be attributable to the underlying properties and the net profits interest. Estimating production and reserves is inherently uncertain.
Ultimately, actual production, revenues and expenditures for the underlying properties could vary both positively and negatively from estimates and those variations could be material. Petroleum
engineers consider many factors and make assumptions in estimating production and reserves. Those factors and assumptions include:



Changes
in these assumptions can materially increase or decrease production and reserve estimates.

The
estimated reserves attributable to the net profits interest and the estimated future net revenues attributable to the net profits interest are based on estimates of reserve
quantities and revenues for the underlying properties. See "Item 1. BusinessDescription of the Underlying PropertiesReserves" for a discussion of the method of
allocating proved reserves to the underlying properties and the net profits interest. The quantities of reserves attributable to the underlying properties and the net profits interest may decrease in
the future as a result of future decreases in the price of oil, natural gas or natural gas liquids.

Risks associated with the production, gathering, transportation and sale of oil, natural gas and
natural gas liquids could adversely affect cash distributions by the trust.

The revenues of the trust, the value of the trust units and the amount of cash distributions to the trust unitholders depend upon,
among other things, the costs incurred by MV Partners to develop and exploit oil and natural gas reserves attributable to the underlying properties. Drilling, production or transportation accidents
that temporarily or permanently halt the production and sale of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids at any of the underlying properties will reduce trust distributions by reducing the amount of
net proceeds available for distribution. For example, accidents may occur that result in personal injuries, property damage, damage to productive formations or equipment and environmental damages. Any
costs incurred by MV Partners in connection with any such accidents that are not insured against will have the effect of reducing the net proceeds available for distribution to the trust. In addition,
curtailments or damage to pipelines used by MV Partners to transport oil, natural gas and natural gas liquid production to markets for sale could reduce the amount of net proceeds available for
distribution. Any such curtailment or damage to the gathering systems used by MV Partners could also require MV Partners to find alternative means to transport the oil, natural gas and natural gas
liquid production from the underlying properties, which alternative means could require MV Partners to incur additional costs that will have the effect of reducing net proceeds available for
distribution by the trust.

Production of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids on the underlying properties could be
materially and adversely affected by severe or unseasonable weather.

Production of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids on the underlying properties could be materially and adversely affected by
severe weather. Repercussions of severe weather conditions may include:



The trust and the public trust unitholders have no voting or managerial rights with respect to MV
Partners, the operator of the underlying properties. As a result, public trust unitholders have no ability to influence the operation of the underlying properties.

Oil and natural gas properties are typically managed pursuant to an operating agreement among the working interest owners of oil and
natural gas properties. The typical operating agreement contains procedures whereby the owners of the working interests in the property designate one of the interest owners to be the operator of the
property. Under these arrangements, the operator is typically responsible for making all decisions relating to drilling activities, sale of production, compliance with regulatory requirements and
other matters that affect the property.

MV
Partners is currently designated as the operator of substantially all of the underlying properties. MV Partners has contracted with two of its affiliates, Vess Oil and Murfin
Drilling, to operate these properties on its behalf. Neither the trustee nor the public trust unitholders has any contractual ability to influence or control the field operations of, sale of oil and
natural gas from, or future development of, these properties. The public trust unitholders also have no voting rights with respect to MV Partners and, therefore, have no managerial, contractual or
other ability to influence MV Partners' or its affiliates' activities as operator of the oil and natural gas properties to which substantially all of the underlying properties relate.

Shortages or increases in costs of oil field equipment, services and qualified personnel available
to MV Partners could reduce the amount of cash available for distribution to the trust unitholders.

The demand for qualified and experienced field personnel to drill wells and conduct field operations, geologists, geophysicists,
engineers and other professionals in the oil and natural gas industry can fluctuate significantly, often in correlation with oil and natural gas prices, causing periodic shortages. Historically, there
have been shortages of drilling rigs and other oilfield equipment as demand for rigs and equipment has increased along with the number of wells being drilled. These factors also cause significant
increases in costs for equipment, services and personnel. Higher oil and natural gas prices generally stimulate demand and result in increased prices for drilling rigs, crews and associated supplies,
equipment and services. As part of its development plan for the underlying properties, MV Partners expects to drill 29 development wells and conduct recompletion and workover operations on existing
wells included in the underlying properties over the five years ending December 31, 2019. See "Item 7. Trustee's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
OperationsPlanned Development and Workover Program" for a description of MV Partners' development plans. Shortages of field personnel and equipment or price increases could significantly
decrease the amount of cash available for distribution to the trust unitholders, or restrict the ability of MV Partners to drill the wells and conduct the operations which it currently has planned for
the underlying properties.

Table of Contents

MV Partners may transfer all or a portion of the underlying properties at any time, subject to
specified limitations, and MV Partners may abandon individual wells or properties that it reasonably believes to be uneconomic. Under these circumstances, trust unitholders have no ability to prevent
MV Partners from transferring the underlying properties to another operator, even if the trust unitholders do not believe that operator would operate the underlying properties in the same manner as MV
Partners.

MV Partners may at any time transfer all or part of the underlying properties. Trust unitholders are not entitled to vote on any
transfer of the underlying properties, and the trust will not receive any proceeds from any such transfer, except in the limited circumstances when the net profits interest is released in connection
with such transfer, in which case the trust will receive an amount equal to the fair market value of the net profits interest released. See "BusinessDescription of the Underlying
PropertiesSale and Abandonment of Underlying Properties." Following any material sale or transfer of any of the underlying properties, such underlying properties will continue to be
subject to the net profits interest of the trust, and the net proceeds attributable to the transferred property will be calculated as part of the computation of net proceeds described in this
Form 10-K. MV Partners may delegate to the
transferee responsibility for all of MV Partners' obligations relating to the net profits interest on the portion of the underlying properties transferred.

MV
Partners or any transferee of the underlying properties may abandon any well or property if it reasonably believes that the well or property can no longer produce oil or natural gas
in commercially economic quantities. This could result in termination of the net profits interest relating to the abandoned well or property. In making such decisions, MV Partners and any such
transferee will be required under the applicable conveyance to act as a reasonably prudent operator in the State of Kansas under the same or similar circumstances would act if it were acting with
respect to its own properties, disregarding the existence of the net profits interest as a burden on such property.

The reserves attributable to the underlying properties are depleting assets and production from
those reserves will diminish over time. Furthermore, the trust is precluded from acquiring other oil and natural gas properties or net profits interests to replace the depleting assets and production.

The net proceeds payable to the trust from the net profits interest are derived from the sale of oil, natural gas and natural gas
liquids produced from the underlying properties. The reserves attributable to the underlying properties are depleting assets, which means that the reserves attributable to the underlying properties
will decline over time. As a result, the quantity of oil and natural gas produced from the underlying properties is expected to decline over time. Based on the estimated production volumes in the
reserve report, the oil and natural gas production from proved reserves attributable to the underlying properties is projected to decline at an average annual rate of approximately 5.9% over the next
20 years assuming no additional developmental drilling or other capital expenditures are made after 2019 on the underlying properties. The anticipated rate of decline is an estimate and actual
decline rates may vary from those estimated. The net profits interest will terminate on the later to occur of (1) June 30, 2026, or (2) the time when 14.4 MMBoe have been produced
from the underlying properties and sold (which amount is the equivalent of 11.5 MMBoe in respect of the trust's right to receive 80% of the net proceeds from the underlying properties pursuant to the
net profits interest).

Future
maintenance projects on the underlying properties beyond those which are currently estimated may affect the quantity of proved reserves that can be economically produced from the
underlying properties. The timing and size of these projects will depend on, among other factors, the market prices of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids. In addition, because MV Partners has
agreed to limit the amount of capital expenditures that may be taken into account in calculating net proceeds attributable to the net profits interest during a specified period preceding the
termination of the net profits interest, MV Partners may choose to delay certain capital projects that may otherwise benefit the trust unitholders until the termination of the net profits interest. If
operators of the wells to which the underlying properties relate do not implement required maintenance projects when warranted, the

31

Table of Contents

future
rate of production decline of proved reserves may be higher than the rate currently expected by MV Partners or estimated in the reserve report.

The
trust agreement provides that the trust's business activities are limited to owning the net profits interest and any activity reasonably related to such ownership, including
activities required or permitted by the terms of the conveyance related to the net profits interest. As a result, the trust is not permitted to acquire other oil and natural gas properties or net
profits interests to replace the depleting assets and production attributable to the net profits interest.

Because
the net proceeds payable to the trust are derived from the sale of depleting assets, the portion of the distributions to unitholders attributable to depletion may be considered a
return of capital as opposed to a return on investment. Eventually, the net profits interest may cease to produce in commercial quantities and the trust may, therefore, cease to receive any
distributions of net proceeds therefrom.

The amount of cash available for distribution by the trust will be reduced by the amount of any
production and development costs, taxes, capital expenditures and post-production costs.

Production and development costs on the underlying properties are deducted in the calculation of the trust's share of net proceeds. In
addition, production and property taxes, capital expenditures or post-production costs are deducted in the calculation of the trust's share of net proceeds. Accordingly, higher or lower production and
development expenses, taxes, capital expenditures and post-production costs will directly decrease or increase the amount received by the trust in respect of its net profits interest. For a summary of
these costs for the last three years, see "Item 1. BusinessDescription of the Underlying PropertiesProducing Acreage and Well Counts." Historical costs may not be
indicative of future costs.

If
development and production costs of the underlying properties exceed the proceeds of production from the underlying properties, the trust will not receive net proceeds from those
properties until future proceeds from production exceed the total of the excess costs plus accrued interest during the deficit period. Development activities may not generate sufficient additional
revenue to repay the costs.

A purchaser's failure to pay MV Partners for purchased production could have a significant adverse
impact on MV Partners, which in turn could result in MV Partners not having sufficient net proceeds attributable to the net profits interest for MV Partners to distribute cash to the trust.

A purchaser's failure to pay for purchased production could have a significant adverse impact on MV Partners' business, which could in
turn impact the trust. The recent tightening of credit in the financial markets may make it more difficult for purchasers to obtain financing and depending on the degree to which this occurs, there
may be a material increase in the nonpayment and nonperformance by such purchasers.

The trustee may, under certain circumstances, sell the net profits interest and dissolve the trust
prior to the expected termination of the trust. As a result, trust unitholders may not recover their investment.

The trustee must sell the net profits interest if the holders of a majority of the trust units approve the sale or vote to dissolve the
trust. The trustee must also sell the net profits interest if the annual gross proceeds from the underlying properties attributable to the net profits interest are less than $1.0 million for
each of any two consecutive years. The sale of the net profits interest will result in the dissolution of the trust. The net proceeds of any such sale will be distributed to the trust unitholders.

The disposal by the two members of MV Partners of their remaining trust units may reduce the market
price of the trust units.

As of the date this Form 10-K, the two members of MV Partners, MV Energy and VAP-I, LLC ("VAP-I"), owned 25% of the
outstanding trust units. The two members of MV Partners may use some or all of the remaining trust units they own for a number of corporate purposes,
including:



If
they sell additional trust units or exchange trust units in connection with acquisitions, then additional trust units will be available for sale in the market. The sale of additional
trust units may reduce the market price of the trust units. MV Partners and the trust have entered into a registration rights agreement pursuant to which the trust has agreed to file a
registration statement or a shelf registration statement to register the resale of the remaining trust units held by MV Partners and any transferee of the trust units upon request by such holders. See
"Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director IndependenceRegistration Rights."

The market price for the trust units may not reflect the value of the net profits interest held by
the trust.

The trading price for publicly traded securities similar to the trust units tends to be tied to recent and expected levels of cash
distributions. The amounts available for distribution by the trust will vary in response to numerous factors outside the control of the trust, including prevailing prices for sales of oil, natural gas
and natural gas liquid production from the underlying properties. Consequently, the market price for the trust units may not necessarily be indicative of the value that the trust would realize if it
sold the net profits interest to a third-party buyer. In addition, such market price may not necessarily reflect the fact that since the assets of the trust are depleting assets, a portion of each
cash distribution paid on the trust units should be considered by investors as a return of capital, with the remainder being considered as a return on investment. As a result, distributions made to a
trust unitholder over the life of these depleting assets may not equal or exceed the purchase price paid by the trust unitholder.

Conflicts of interest could arise between MV Partners and the trust unitholders.

The interests of MV Partners and the interests of the trust and the trust unitholders with respect to the underlying properties could
at times differ. As a working interest owner in the underlying properties, MV Partners could have interests that conflict with the interests of the trust and the trust unitholders. For
example:



33

---



Table of Contents



In
addition, affiliates of MV Partners may engage in activities whereby such affiliates could have interests that conflict with the interests of MV Partners, which could, depending on the
circumstances, negatively impact MV Partners' business.

In
making decisions with respect to the development, operation, abandonment or sale of the underlying properties, MV Partners and any successor operator will be required under the
applicable conveyance to act as a reasonably prudent operator in the State of Kansas under the same or similar circumstances would act if it were acting with respect to its own properties,
disregarding the existence of the net profits interest. Except for specified matters that require approval of the trust unitholders, the documents governing the trust do not provide a mechanism for
resolving these conflicting interests.

The trust is managed by a trustee who cannot be replaced except at a special meeting of trust
unitholders.

The business and affairs of the trust are managed by the trustee. The voting rights of a trust unitholder are more limited than those
of stockholders of most public corporations. For example, there is no requirement for annual meetings of trust unitholders or for an annual or other periodic re-election of the trustee. The trust
agreement provides that the trustee may only be removed and replaced by the holders of a majority of the outstanding trust units at a special meeting of trust unitholders called by either the trustee
or the holders of not less than 10% of the outstanding trust units. MV Energy and VAP-I collectively own 25% of the outstanding trust units. As a result, it will be difficult to remove or replace the
trustee, particularly without the approval of the members of MV Partners.

Trust unitholders have limited ability to enforce provisions of the net profits interest.

The trust agreement permits the trustee to sue MV Partners or any other future owner of the underlying properties on behalf of the
trust to enforce the terms of the conveyance creating the net profits interest. If the trustee does not take appropriate action to enforce provisions of the conveyance, recourse of the trust
unitholders would be limited to bringing a lawsuit against the trustee to compel the trustee to take specified actions. The trust agreement expressly limits the trust unitholders' ability to directly
sue MV Partners or any other third party other than the trustee. As a result, the unitholders will not be able to sue MV Partners or any future owner of the underlying properties to enforce these
rights.

Courts outside of Delaware may not recognize the limited liability of the trust unitholders provided
under Delaware law.

Under the Delaware Statutory Trust Act, trust unitholders are entitled to the same limitation of personal liability extended to
stockholders of private corporations under the
General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. Courts in jurisdictions outside of Delaware, however, may not give effect to such limitation.

The operations of the underlying properties are subject to environmental laws and regulations and
operational safety matters that may result in significant costs and liabilities, which could reduce the amount of cash available for distribution to trust unitholders.

Significant costs and liabilities can be incurred as a result of environmental and safety requirements applicable to the oil and
natural gas exploration, development and production activities of the underlying properties. These costs and liabilities could arise under a wide range of federal, state and local environmental and
safety laws and regulations, including regulations and enforcement policies, which have tended to become increasingly strict over time. Failure to comply with these laws and regulations may result in
the assessment of administrative, civil and criminal penalties, imposition of cleanup and site restoration costs and liens, and to a lesser extent, issuance of injunctions to limit or cease
operations. In addition, claims for damages to persons or property may result from environmental and other impacts of the operations of the underlying properties.

Strict,
joint and several liability may be imposed under certain environmental laws, which could cause liability for the conduct of others or for the consequences of one's own actions
that were in compliance with all applicable laws at the time those actions were taken. New laws, regulations or enforcement policies could be more stringent and impose unforeseen liabilities or
significantly increase compliance costs. If it were not possible to recover the resulting costs through insurance or increased revenues, this could have a material adverse effect on the cash
distributions to the trust unitholders. Please read "Item 1. BusinessDescription of the Underlying PropertiesRegulationEnvironmental Matters and
Regulation" for more information.

Governmental authorities may enact climate change regulations that could increase MV Partners' costs
to operate and, therefore, adversely affect distributions to the trust unitholders.

Congress has considered recent proposed legislation directed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions and President Obama has indicated his
support of legislation aimed at
reducing greenhouse gases. The EPA has proposed rules to regulate greenhouse gases and regional initiatives have formed to control greenhouse gases. Additionally, the states in which MV Partners
operates may implement air pollution control regulations that are more stringent than existing and proposed federal regulations, in particular the regulation of emissions of greenhouse gases. The
adoption of laws and regulations to implement controls of greenhouse gases, including the imposition of fees or taxes, could adversely affect MV Partners' operations and, therefore, distributions to
the trust unitholders.

Regulation of greenhouse gases and climate change could adversely affect trust
distributions.

Some
scientific studies have suggested that emissions of certain gases, commonly referred to as greenhouse gases, including carbon dioxide and methane, may be
contributing to the warming of the Earth's atmosphere and other climatic changes. In response to such studies, the issue of climate change and the effect of greenhouse gas emissions, in particular
emissions from fossil fuels, is attracting increasing attention worldwide. Legislative and regulatory measures to address concerns that emissions of greenhouse gases are contributing to climate change
are in various phases of discussions or implementation at the international, national, regional and state levels.

The
EPA has determined that greenhouse gases from certain sources "endanger" public health or welfare. As a result, the EPA has begun to promulgate certain regulations and
interpretations that will require new and modified stationary sources of greenhouse gases above certain thresholds to report, limit or control such emissions. Currently, certain oil and gas operations
must inventory and report greenhouse gas emissions.

Existing
or future laws, regulations, treaties or international agreements related to greenhouse gases and climate change, including incentives to conserve energy or use alternative
energy sources, could have a negative impact on the operations of the underlying properties and the trust if such laws,

35

Table of Contents

regulations,
treaties or international agreements reduce the worldwide demand for oil and natural gas or otherwise result in reduced economic activity generally. In addition, such laws, regulations,
treaties or international agreements could result in increased compliance costs or additional operating restrictions, which may have a negative impact on the operations of the underlying properties
and the trust. In addition to potential impacts on the operations of the underlying properties and the trust directly or indirectly resulting from climate-change legislation or regulations, the
operations of the underlying properties and the trust also could be negatively affected by climate-change related physical changes or changes in weather patterns.

The operations of the underlying properties are subject to complex federal, state, local and other
laws and regulations that could adversely affect the cash distributions to the trust unitholders.

The exploration, development and production operations of the underlying properties are subject to complex and stringent laws and
regulations. In order to conduct its operations in compliance with these laws and regulations, MV Partners must obtain and maintain numerous permits, approvals and certificates from various federal,
state and local governmental authorities. MV Partners may incur substantial costs and experience delays in order to maintain compliance with these existing laws and regulations, and the net profits
interest will bear its share of these costs. In addition, the costs of compliance may increase or the operations of the underlying properties may be otherwise adversely affected if existing laws and
regulations are revised or reinterpreted, or if new laws and regulations become applicable to such operations. Such costs could have a material adverse effect on the cash distributions to the trust
unitholders.

Laws
and regulations governing exploration and production may also affect production levels. MV Partners is required to comply with federal and state laws and regulations governing
conservation matters, including: provisions related to the unitization or pooling of oil and natural gas properties; the establishment of maximum rates of production from wells; the spacing of wells;
the plugging and abandonment of wells; and the removal of related production equipment. These and other laws and regulations can limit the amount of oil and natural gas MV Partners can produce from
its wells, limit the number of wells it can drill, or limit the locations at which it can conduct drilling operations, which in turn could negatively impact trust distributions, estimated and actual
future net revenues to the trust and estimates of reserves attributable to the trust's interests.

New
laws or regulations, or changes to existing laws or regulations, may unfavorably impact MV Partners, could result in increased operating costs or have a material adverse effect on MV
Partners' financial condition and results of operations and reduce the amount of cash received by the trust. For example, Congress is currently considering legislation that, if adopted in its proposed
form, would subject companies involved in oil and natural gas exploration and production activities to, among other items, additional regulation of and restrictions on hydraulic fracturing of wells,
the elimination of certain U.S. federal tax incentives and deductions available to oil and natural gas exploration and production activities, and the prohibition or additional regulation of private
energy commodity derivative and hedging activities. These and other potential regulations could increase the operating costs of the underlying properties, reduce MV Partners' liquidity, delay MV
Partners' operations or otherwise alter the way MV Partners conducts its business, any of which could have a material adverse effect on the net profits interest and the trust's cash flows.

The trust has not requested a ruling from the IRS regarding the tax treatment of ownership of the
trust units or the tax treatment of the net profits interest. If the IRS were to determine (and be sustained in that determination) that the trust is not a grantor trust for federal income tax
purposes, or that the net profits interest is not a debt instrument for federal income tax purposes, the trust unitholders may receive different and less advantageous tax treatment than that described
in this Form 10-K.

Tax counsel to MV Partners advised the trust at the time of formation that, for federal income tax purposes, in its opinion MV Partners
will be treated as a grantor trust and not as an unincorporated business entity. Tax counsel to MV Partners also advised the trust at the time of formation that, for federal income tax purposes, based
upon representations made by MV Partners regarding the expected economic life of the underlying properties and the expected duration of the net profits interest, in its opinion the net profits
interest should be treated as a "production payment" under Section 636 of the Code or otherwise as a debt instrument.

If
the net profits interest were not treated as a debt instrument, or if the trust were not treated as a grantor trust, for federal income tax purposes, the tax treatment of tax items in
respect of an investment in trust units may be affected. The effects of this different tax treatment may be less advantageous to trust unitholders.

Neither
MV Partners nor the trustee has requested a ruling from the IRS regarding these tax questions, and neither MV Partners nor the trust can assure the trust unitholders that such a
ruling would be granted if requested or that the IRS will not challenge these positions on audit. See "Item 1. BusinessFederal Income Tax Matters" for more information about the
various matters described under this risk factor.

The tax treatment of an investment in trust units could be affected by recent and potential
legislative changes, possibly on a retroactive basis.

Currently, an individual having modified adjusted gross income in excess of $200,000 (or $250,000 for married taxpayers filing joint
returns) is subject to a "Medicare tax" equal generally to 3.8% of the lesser of such excess or the individual's net investment income, which appears to include interest income derived from
investments such as the trust units as well as any net gain from the disposition of trust units.

The trust's net profits interest may be characterized as an executory contract in bankruptcy, which
could be rejected in bankruptcy, thus relieving MV Partners from its obligations to make payments to the trust with respect to the net profits interest.

MV Partners has recorded the conveyance of the net profits interest in Kansas in the real property records in each Kansas county where
the properties are located. MV Partners has informed the trustee that MV Partners believes that the delivery and recording of the conveyance constitute fully conveyed and vested property interests in
the trust under Kansas law. If in a bankruptcy proceeding in which MV Partners becomes involved as a debtor a determination were made that the conveyance constitutes an executory contract and the net
profits interest is not a fully conveyed property interest under the laws of Kansas, and if such contract were not to be assumed in a bankruptcy proceeding involving MV Partners, the trust would be
treated as an unsecured creditor of MV Partners with respect to such net profits interest in the pending bankruptcy proceeding.

Oil
and gas leases are real property interests under Colorado law. The net profits interest is a non-operating, non-possessory interest carved out of the oil and gas leasehold estate. MV
Partners has informed the trustee that MV Partners believes that it is possible that the net profits interest for the underlying properties located in Colorado may not be treated as a real property
interest under the laws of Colorado. MV Partners has recorded the conveyance of the net profits interest in the real property records of Colorado in accordance with local recording acts. MV Partners
has informed the trustee that

Table of Contents

MV
Partners believes that, if, during the term of the trust, MV Partners becomes involved as a debtor in a bankruptcy proceeding, the net profits interest relating to the underlying properties located
in Colorado should be treated as a fully conveyed personal property interest under the laws of Colorado. In such a proceeding, however, a determination could be made that the conveyance constitutes an
executory contract and the net profits interest is not a fully conveyed personal property interest under the laws of Colorado, and if such contract were not to be assumed in a bankruptcy proceeding
involving MV Partners, the trust would be treated as an unsecured creditor of MV Partners with respect to such net profits interest in the pending bankruptcy proceeding.

If the financial position of MV Partners degrades in the future, MV Partners may not be able to
satisfy its obligations to the trust.

MV Partners is a privately held limited liability company engaged in the exploration, development, production, gathering and
aggregation and sale of oil and natural gas, primarily in the Mid-Continent region in the United States, and it is responsible for operating substantially all of the underlying properties. The
operating agreement of MV Partners provides that Vess Oil and Murfin Drilling will operate the underlying properties on behalf of MV Partners for which MV Partners is designated as the operator. The
conveyance provides that MV Partners is obligated to market, or cause to be marketed, the production related to the underlying properties.

The
ability of MV Partners to perform its obligations related to the operation of the underlying properties will depend on MV Partners' future financial condition and economic
performance, which in turn will depend upon the supply and demand for oil and natural gas, prevailing economic conditions, collections of payments due from third parties, and upon financial, business
and other factors, many of which are beyond the control of MV Partners.

As
of March 12, 2015, the 11,500,000 units outstanding were held by 10 unitholders of record.

Each
quarter, the trustee determines the amount of funds available for distribution to the trust unitholders. Available funds are the excess cash, if any, received by the trust from the
net profits interest and other sources (such as interest earned on any amounts reserved by the trustee) that quarter, less the trust's expenses for that quarter. Available funds will also be reduced
by any cash that the trustee decides to hold as a reserve against future expenses. It is expected that quarterly cash distributions during the term of the trust will be made by the trustee on or
before the 25th day of the month following the end of each quarter to the trust unitholders of record on the 15th day of the month following the end of each quarter (or the next
succeeding business day).

Equity Compensation Plans

The trust does not have any employees and, therefore, does not maintain any equity compensation plans.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

There were no equity securities sold by the trust during the year ended December 31, 2014 that were not registered under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, which we refer to herein as the "Securities Act."

Purchases of Equity Securities

There were no purchases of trust units by the trust or any affiliated purchaser during the fourth quarter of the year ended
December 31, 2014.

Item 7.    Trustee's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following review of the trust's financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes thereto. The trust's purpose is, in general, to hold the net profits interest to distribute to the trust unitholders cash that the trust receives in respect of the net profits
interest and to perform certain administrative functions in respect of the net profits interest and the trust units. The trust derives substantially all of its income and cash flows from the net
profits interest.

Critical Accounting Policies

The trust uses the modified cash basis of accounting to report receipts by the trust of the net profits interest and payments of
expenses incurred. The net profits interest represents the right to receive revenues (oil, gas and natural liquid gas sales) less direct operating expenses (lease operating, maintenance and overhead
expenses and production and property taxes) and an adjustment for lease equipment cost and lease development expenses (which are capitalized in financial statements prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP")) of the underlying properties times 80%. Cash distributions of the trust will be made based on the amount
of cash received by the trust pursuant to terms of the conveyance creating the net profits interest.

The
financial statements of the trust, as prepared on a modified cash basis, reflect the trust's assets, trust corpus, earnings and distributions as follows:

While
these statements differ from financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the modified cash basis of reporting revenues and distributions is considered most
meaningful because quarterly distributions to the trust unitholders are based on net cash receipts received from MV Partners. This comprehensive basis of accounting other than U.S. GAAP
corresponds to the accounting
permitted for royalty trusts by the SEC as specified by Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 12:E, Financial Statements of Royalty Trusts.

Comparison of Results of the Trust for the Years Ended December 31, 2014 and 2013

Income for the trust from the net profits interest was $39.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to
$37.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. General and administrative expense for the trust was $0.9 million for 2014 and $0.8 million for 2013. The trust paid
administration fees of $0.1 million to MV Partners for each of 2014 and 2013. In addition, the trustee withheld $41,000 and $2,000 of cash on hand for future trust expenses for the years ended
December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, resulting in distributable income of $39.0 million, or $3.395 per unit, in 2014 compared to $37.0 million, or $3.220, per unit in 2013.

The
revenues from oil production are typically received by MV Partners one month after production; thus, the cash received by the trust during the year ended December 31, 2014
substantially represented the production by MV Partners from September 2013 through August 2014, and the cash received by the trust during the year ended December 31, 2013 substantially
represented the production by MV Partners from September 2012 through August 2013. MV Partners computes net proceeds quarterly on a calendar basis and distributes to the trust 80% of the aggregate of
such net proceeds attributable to a computation period on or before the 25th day of the month following the computation period. As a result, for the year ended December 31, 2014, the
trust's net profits interest represented the cash proceeds received by the trust, which was based upon the cash receipts for the oil and gas production collected by MV Partners from October 1,
2013 through September 30, 2014. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the trust's net profits interest represented the cash proceeds received by the trust, which was based upon the cash
receipts for the oil and gas production collected by MV Partners from October 1, 2012 through September 30, 2013.

Excess
of revenues over direct operating expenses and lease equipment and development costs from the underlying properties was $51.0 million for the period from October 1,
2013 through September 30, 2014. The trust's net profits interest (80%) of this total was $40.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. In addition, during 2014, MV Partners
withheld $850,000 of the reserve for future capital expenses for the year ended December 31, 2014, which resulted in total cash proceeds received by the trust of $39.9 million for the
year ended December 31, 2014.

Excess
of revenues over direct operating expenses and lease equipment and development costs from the underlying properties was $47.3 million for the period from October 1,
2012 through September 30, 2013. The trust's net profits interest (80%) of this total was $37.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. During 2013, MV Partners did not
withhold or release any dollar amounts with respect to the reserve for future capital expenditures, which resulted in total cash proceeds received by the trust of $37.9 million for the year
ended December 31, 2013.

The
average price received for crude oil sold during 2014 was $93.85 per Bbl, while the average price received for crude oil sold during 2013 was $88.10 per Bbl. The average price
received for natural gas sold during 2014 was $4.04 per Mcf, while the average price received for natural gas sold during 2013 was $3.29 per Mcf. The average prices for 2014 related to production by

Discussion and Analysis of Historical Results of the Underlying Properties

Comparison of Results of the Underlying Properties for the Years Ended December 31,
2014 and 2013

Excess of revenues over direct operating expenses for the underlying properties was $48.0 million for the year ended
December 31, 2014, compared to $54.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. The decrease was primarily a result of a decrease in total revenue as a result of a decrease in
the average price received for the oil sold in 2014 and a small decrease in production volumes. An increase in direct operating expenses which was partially offset by decreases in lease maintenance
and production and property tax also contributed to the decrease in excess of revenues over direct operating expenses.

Revenues.Revenues from oil, natural gas and natural gas liquid sales decreased $5.6 million to $73.0 million for the year
ended
December 31, 2014 compared to $78.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. This decrease in revenues was primarily the result of a decrease in the average price received
for crude oil sold from $91.65 per Bbl for the year ended December 31, 2013 to $86.49 per Bbl for the year ended December 31, 2014. This decrease in revenues reflects an increase in the
average price received for natural gas sold from $3.44 per Mcf for the year ended December 31, 2013 to $4.12 per Mcf for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Prices.The average price received for crude oil sold decreased from $91.65 per Bbl for the year ended December 31, 2013 to $86.49
per Bbl for
the year ended December 31, 2014. The average price received for the crude oil sold decreased primarily as a result of a decrease in the oil price index on which the sales prices for a majority
of the oil production were based. The average price received for

Table of Contents

natural
gas sold increased from $3.44 per Mcf for the year ended December 31, 2013 to $4.12 per Mcf for the year ended December 31, 2014. The average price received for natural gas sold
increased as a result of an increase in the natural gas price index on which the sales prices for a majority of the natural gas production were based.

Volumes.Sales volumes for crude oil decreased from 854 MBbls for the year ended December 31, 2013 to 841 MBbls for the year ended
December 31, 2014. Sales volumes for natural gas decreased from 66 MMcf for the year ended December 31, 2013 to 59 MMcf for the year ended December 31, 2014. The small decrease in
overall production sales volumes was less than the natural decline of the underlying properties.

Direct operating expenses.Direct operating expenses increased from $24.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 to
$25.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. This increase was primarily a result of an increase in lease operating expenses which was partially offset by decreases in lease
maintenance and production and property tax.

Lease
operating expense increased from $15.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 to $17.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. This increase
was primarily the result of an increase in the general cost of oilfield supplies and services.

Lease
maintenance decreased from $2.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 to $1.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. This decrease was the
result of a decrease in the number of maintenance projects completed during the year ended December 31, 2014.

Production
and property tax decreased from $3.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 to $2.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. This
decrease was primarily the result of reduced property tax values. A decrease in production tax was a result of the decrease in revenue on which the tax is based.

Comparison of Results of the Underlying Properties for the Years Ended December 31,
2013 and 2012

Excess of revenues over direct operating expenses for the underlying properties was $54.1 million for the year ended
December 31, 2013, compared to $53.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase was primarily a result of an increase in total revenue as a result of an increase
in the average price received for the oil sold in 2013 offset by a small decrease in production volumes. A decrease in direct operating expenses also contributed to the increase in excess of revenues
over direct operating expenses.

Revenues.Revenues from oil, natural gas and natural gas liquid sales increased $0.4 million to $78.6 million for the year
ended
December 31, 2013 compared to $78.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. This increase in revenues was primarily the result of an increase in the average price received
for crude oil sold from $87.68 per Bbl for the year ended December 31, 2012 to $91.65 per Bbl for the year ended December 31, 2013. This increase in revenues reflects an increase in the
average price received for natural gas sold from $2.55 per Mcf for the year ended December 31, 2012 to $3.44 per Mcf for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Prices.The average price received for crude oil sold increased from $87.68 per Bbl for the year ended December 31, 2012 to $91.65
per Bbl for
the year ended December 31, 2013. The average price received for the crude oil sold increased primarily as a result of an increase in the oil price index on which the sales prices for a
majority of the oil production were based. The average price received for natural gas sold increased from $2.55 per Mcf for the year ended December 31, 2012 to $3.44 per Mcf for the year ended
December 31, 2013. The average price received for natural gas sold increased as a result of an increase in the natural gas price index on which the sales prices for a majority of the natural
gas production were based.

Volumes.Sales volumes for crude oil decreased from 888 MBbls for the year ended December 31, 2012 to 854 MBbls for the year ended
December 31, 2013. Sales volumes for natural gas decreased from 70 MMcf for the year ended December 31, 2012 to 66 MMcf for the year ended December 31, 2013. The
small decrease in overall production sales volumes was less than the natural decline of the underlying properties.

Direct operating expenses.Direct operating expenses decreased from $24.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 to
$24.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. This decrease was primarily a result of a decrease in lease operating and production and property tax.

Lease
operating expense decreased from $16.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 to $15.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. This decrease
was primarily the result of a decrease in the general cost of oilfield supplies and services.

Production
and property tax decreased from $3.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 to $3.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. This
decrease was primarily the result of reduced property tax values.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Other than trust administrative expenses, including any reserves established by the trustee for future liabilities, the trust's only
use of cash is for distributions to trust unitholders. Administrative expenses include payments to the trustee as well as an annual administrative fee to MV Partners pursuant to the administrative
services agreement. Each quarter, the trustee determines the amount of funds available for distribution. Available funds are the excess cash, if any, received by the trust from the net profits
interest and payments from other sources (such as interest earned on any amounts reserved by the trustee) in that quarter, over the trust's expenses paid for that quarter. Available funds are reduced
by any cash the trustee decides to hold as a reserve against future expenses. As of December 31, 2014, $160,000 was held by the trustee as such a reserve. The trustee may cause the trust to
borrow funds required to pay expenses if the trustee determines that the cash on hand and the cash to be received are insufficient to cover the trust's liabilities. If the trust borrows funds, the
trust unitholders will not receive distributions until the borrowed funds are repaid. During each of 2013 and 2014, MV Partners made no advances to the trust for trust expenses.

Income
to the trust from the net profits interest is based on the calculation and definitions of "gross proceeds" and "net proceeds" contained in the conveyance.

As
further discussed below, MV Partners' development and workover program will require MV Partners to make future capital expenditures in connection with the development, exploration and
production of oil and gas. Substantially all of the underlying properties are located in mature fields and MV Partners does not expect future costs for the underlying properties to change
significantly as compared to recent historical costs other than increases due to increases in the general cost of oilfield services.

The
trust does not have any transactions, arrangements or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or persons that could materially affect the trust's liquidity or the
availability of capital resources.

Planned Development and Workover Program

Since acquiring the underlying properties in 1998 and 1999, MV Partners has implemented a development program on the underlying
properties to develop further proved undeveloped reserves and to help offset the natural decline in production. These activities included recompletion of certain existing wells into new producing
horizons, workovers of existing wells, and the drilling of infill development wells.

46

Table of Contents

The
development program that MV Partners currently intends to implement over the five years ending December 31, 2019 with respect to the underlying properties categorized as
proved undeveloped reserves consists of drilling development wells, recompletion and workover projects, and polymer workovers. The development program that MV Partners currently intends to implement
over the next five years with respect to the underlying properties categorized as proved developed non-producing reserves consists of well-reactivation projects, injection well-workover projects,
recompletion projects, and well-workover projects.

MV
Partners has undertaken 3-D seismic surveys covering several leases constituting a part of the underlying properties. These leases have over 29 undrilled offset locations of varying
quality based on offset production and subsurface mapping. The 3-D data was utilized to refine the subsurface mapping with respect to the size of mapped sink holes and to define smaller structural
features along the edges of the main formation reservoir. Using this data, MV Partners has scheduled the drilling of 12 proved undeveloped locations over the five years ending December 31,
2019. MV Partners has expanded its 3-D seismic program into other fields constituting a part of the underlying properties.

MV
Partners expects total capital expenditures for the underlying properties during the five years ending December 31, 2019 will be approximately $10.6 million. Of this
total, MV Partners contemplates spending approximately $7.4 million to drill development wells in seven project areas and approximately $3.2 million for recompletion and workovers of
existing wells. MV Partners expects that these capital projects will add production that will partially offset the natural decline in production otherwise expected to occur with respect to the
underlying properties. The trust is not directly obligated to pay any portion of any capital expenditures made with respect to the underlying properties; however, capital expenditures made by MV
Partners with respect to the underlying properties will be deducted from the gross proceeds in calculating the net proceeds from which cash will be paid to the trust. As a result, the trust will
indirectly bear an 80% (subject to certain limitations during the final three years of the trust, as described above under "Item 1. BusinessComputation of Net
ProceedsNet Profits Interest") share of any capital expenditures made with respect to the underlying properties. Accordingly, higher or lower capital expenditures will, in general,
directly decrease or increase, respectively, the cash received by the trust in respect of its net profits interest. As the cash received by the trust in respect of the net profits interest will be
reduced by the trust's pro rata share of these capital expenditures, MV Partners expects that it will incur capital expenditures with respect to the underlying properties throughout the term of the
trust on a basis that balances the impact of the capital expenditures on current cash distributions to the trust unitholders with the longer term benefits of increased oil and natural gas production
expected to result from the capital expenditures. In addition, MV Partners may establish a capital reserve of up to $1.0 million in the aggregate at any given time to reduce the impact on
distributions of uneven capital expenditure timing.

MV
Partners, as the operator of the underlying properties, is entitled to make all determinations related to capital expenditures with respect to the underlying properties, and there are
no limitations on the amount of capital expenditures that MV Partners may incur with respect to the underlying properties, except as described above under "Item 1.
BusinessComputation of Net ProceedsNet Profits Interest." As the trust unitholders would not be expected to fully realize the benefits of capital expenditures made with
respect to the underlying properties toward the end of the term of the trust, during each twelve-month period beginning on the later to occur of (1) June 30, 2023, and (2) the
time when 13.2 MMBoe have been produced from the underlying properties and sold (which is the equivalent of 10.6 MMBoe in respect of the net profits interest), capital expenditures that may be taken
into account in calculating net proceeds attributable to the net profits interest will be limited to the average annual capital expenditures during the preceding three years, as adjusted for
inflation. See "Item 1. BusinessComputation of Net ProceedsNet Profits Interest."

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The trust has no off-balance sheet arrangements. The trust has not guaranteed the debt of any other party, nor does the trust have any
other arrangements or relationships with other entities that could potentially result in unconsolidated debt, losses or contingent obligations.

Contractual Obligations

As of December 31, 2014, the trust had no obligations or commitments to make future contractual payments other than the
administrative services fee and trustee fee payable to MV Partners and the trustee, respectively. See "Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary DataNotes to Financial
StatementsNote GRelated Party Transactions."

Item 7A.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Substantially all of the income to the trust is derived from the net profits interest, which generally entitles the trust to receive
80% of the net proceeds from oil and gas production from the underlying properties. Consequently, the trust is exposed to market risk from fluctuations in oil and gas prices. Although the trust may
borrow money to pay expenses of the trust, the amount of any such borrowings is unlikely to be material to the trust. As a result, the trust is not subject to any material interest rate market risk.

Item 8.    Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To
the Trustee and Unitholders
MV Oil Trust

We
have audited the accompanying statements of assets and trust corpus of MV Oil Trust (the "Trust") as of December 31, 2013 and 2014, and the related statements of distributable
income and changes in trust corpus for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2014. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trust's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

As
described in Note B to the financial statements, these financial statements have been prepared on a modified cash basis of accounting, which is a comprehensive basis of
accounting other than accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

In
our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the assets and trust corpus of MV Oil Trust as of December 31, 2013 and 2014,
and its distributable income and its changes in trust corpus for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2014 on the basis of accounting described in Note B.

We
also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the Trust's internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2014, based on criteria established in the 2013Internal ControlIntegrated Frameworkissued by the Committee of
Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our report dated March 12, 2015 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

MV Oil Trust        NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE AORGANIZATION OF THE TRUST

MV Oil Trust (the "Trust") is a statutory trust formed on August 3, 2006, under the Delaware Statutory Trust Act pursuant to a Trust Agreement (the "Trust Agreement") among MV
Partners, LLC ("MV Partners") as trustor, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee (the "Trustee"), and Wilmington Trust Company, as Delaware Trustee (the "Delaware
Trustee").

The
Trust was created to acquire and hold a term net profits interest for the benefit of the Trust unitholders pursuant to a conveyance from MV Partners to the Trust. The term net
profits interest is an interest in underlying properties consisting of MV Partner's net interests in all of its oil and natural gas properties located in the Mid-Continent region in the states of
Kansas and Colorado (the "underlying properties"). These oil and gas properties include approximately 1,000 producing oil and gas wells.

The
net profits interest is passive in nature, and the Trustee has no management control over and no responsibility relating to the operation of the underlying properties. The net
profits interest entitles the Trust to receive 80% of the net proceeds attributable to MV Partners' interest from the sale of production from the underlying properties during the term of the Trust.
The net profits interest will terminate on the later to occur of (1) June 30, 2026 or (2) the time when 14.4 million barrels of oil equivalent (MMBoe) have been produced
from the underlying properties and sold (which amount is the equivalent of 11.5 MMBoe with respect to the Trust's 80% net profits interest), and the Trust will soon thereafter wind up its affairs and
terminate.

The
Trustee can authorize the Trust to borrow money to pay Trust administrative or incidental expenses that exceed cash held by the Trust. The Trustee may authorize the Trust to borrow
from the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee as a lender provided the terms of the loan are similar to the terms it would grant to a similarly situated commercial customer with whom it did not have a
fiduciary relationship. The Trustee may also deposit funds awaiting distribution in an account with itself and make other short term investments with the funds distributed to the Trust.

NOTE BTRUST ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A summary of the significant accounting policies of the Trust follows.

The
Trust uses the modified cash basis of accounting to report receipts by the Trust of the net profits interest and payments of expenses incurred. The net profits interest represents
the right to receive revenues (oil, gas and natural gas liquid sales) less direct operating expenses (lease operating, maintenance and overhead expenses and production and property taxes) and an
adjustment for lease equipment cost and lease development expenses (which are capitalized in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America ("U.S. GAAP")) of the underlying properties times 80% (term net profits interest percentage). Actual cash receipts may vary due to timing delays of actual cash receipts from
the property operators or purchasers and due to wellhead and pipeline volume balancing agreements or practices. The actual cash distributions of the Trust will be made based on the terms of the
conveyance creating the Trust's net profits interest.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

NOTE BTRUST ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

The
financial statements of the Trust, as prepared on a modified cash basis, reflect the Trust's assets, Trust corpus, and distributable income as follows:



While
these statements differ from financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the modified cash basis of reporting income and distributions is considered most
meaningful because quarterly distributions to the Trust unitholders are based on net cash receipts.

This
comprehensive basis of accounting other than generally accepted accounting principles corresponds to the accounting permitted for royalty trusts by the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "SEC") as specified by Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 12:E, Financial Statements of Royalty Trusts.

No
new accounting pronouncements have been adopted or issued during the year ended December 31, 2014 that would impact the financial statements of the Trust.

For
purposes of these statements, the Trust considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

The
preparation of financial statements requires estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Significant
estimates affecting these financial statements include estimates of proved oil and gas reserves, which are used to compute the Trust's amortization of net profits interest.

(1)Pursuant
to the conveyance of the net profits interest, direct operating expenses, lease equipment and development costs, and payments made to settle hedges
are deducted when calculating the distributable income to the Trust.(2)Pursuant
to the conveyance of the net profits interest, MV Partners can reserve up to $1.0 million for future capital expenditures at any time. The
reserve balance was $150,000 at December 31, 2012. During 2013, MV Partners did not withhold or release any dollar amounts due to the Trust. The reserve balance was $150,000 at
December 31, 2013. During 2014, MV Partners withheld $850,000 for future capital expenditures. The reserve balance was $1.0 million at December 31, 2014.(3)The
income from net profits interest is based upon the cash receipts from MV Partners for the oil and gas production. The revenues from oil production are
typically received one month after production; thus, the cash received by the Trust during the year ended December 31, 2012 substantially represents the production by MV Partners from September
2011 through August 2012, and the cash received by the Trust during the year ended December 31, 2013 substantially represents the production by MV Partners from September 2012 through August
2013 and the cash received by the Trust during the year ended December 31, 2014 substantially represents the production by MV Partners from September 2013 through August 2014.


For
the years ended December 31, 2012, 2013 and 2014, MV Purchasing purchased 76%, 75% and 75%, respectively, of the production sold from the underlying properties. Sales to MV
Purchasing are under short-term arrangements, ranging from one to six months, using market sensitive pricing.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

NOTE EINCOME TAXES

Tax counsel to the Trust advised the Trust at the time of formation that, under then current tax laws, in its opinion the net profits interest should be treated as a debt instrument for
federal income tax purposes, and the Trust should be required to treat a portion of each payment it receives with respect to the net profits interest as interest income in accordance with the
"noncontingent bond method" under the original issue discount rules contained in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the corresponding regulations. Tax counsel to the Trust also advised
the Trust at the time of formation that in its opinion the Trust will be treated as a grantor trust for federal income tax purposes. On the basis of this advice, Trust unitholders will be considered
to own and receive the Trust's assets and income and will be directly taxable thereon as if no trust were in existence. No provision for federal or state income taxes has been made in the accompanying
statements.

NOTE FDISTRIBUTIONS TO UNITHOLDERS

The Trustee determines for each quarter the amount available for distribution to the Trust unitholders. This distribution is expected to be made on or before the 25th day of the
month following the end of each quarter to the Trust unitholders of record on the 15th day of the month following the end of each
quarter (or the next succeeding business day). Such amounts will be equal to the excess, if any, of the cash received by the Trust relating to such preceding quarter, over the expenses of the Trust
for such quarter, subject to adjustments for changes made by the Trustee during such quarter in any cash reserves established for future expenses of the Trust.

NOTE GRELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Trust has entered into an administrative services agreement with MV Partners that obligates the Trust, throughout the term of the Trust, to pay to MV Partners each quarter an
administrative services fee for accounting, bookkeeping and informational services performed by MV Partners on behalf of the Trust relating to the net profits interest. The annual fee was a total of
$75,919, $78,956 and $82,114 for 2012, 2013 and 2014, respectively, which will increase by 4% each year. During the years ended December 31, 2012, 2013 and 2014, the Trust paid MV Partners
$94,169, $78,956 and $82,114, respectively, for administrative services during calendar years 2012, 2013 and 2014, respectively. The administrative services agreement will terminate upon the
termination of the net profits interest unless earlier terminated by mutual agreement of the Trustee and MV Partners.

The
Trust has entered into a Trust Agreement with the Trustee that obligates the Trust, throughout the term of the Trust, to pay to the Trustee a quarterly fee. The annual fee was a
total of $150,000 for each of 2012, 2013 and 2014. The Trust Agreement will terminate upon the termination of the net profits interest unless earlier terminated by mutual agreement of a majority of
the Trust unitholders.

NOTE HADVANCE FOR TRUST EXPENSES

Under the terms of the Trust Agreement, the Trustee is allowed to borrow money to pay Trust expenses. During 2012, 2013 and 2014, the Trust did not borrow any money, and there were no
prior borrowings that had not been repaid. Since the Trust uses the modified cash basis of accounting, a liability has not been recorded for any advances from MV Partners. The net advance is shown as
an addition to Trust Corpus when the borrowing is made and is shown as a reduction to Trust Corpus when it is repaid.

In
April 2011, MV Partners provided a letter of credit in the amount of $1 million to the Trustee to protect the Trust against the risk that it does not have sufficient cash to
pay future expenses.

NOTE IOTHER EVENTS

Subsequent event

The first quarterly distribution for 2015 was $7,015,000, or $0.61 per Trust unit, and was made on January 23, 2015 to Trust
unitholders owning Trust units as of January 15, 2015. Such distribution included the net proceeds of production collected by MV Partners from October 1, 2014 through December 31,
2014.

NOTE JDISCLOSURES ABOUT OIL AND GAS ACTIVITIES (UNAUDITED)

The Trust is required to disclose proved reserves in accordance with the SEC's reporting rules, which require that the average, first-day-of-the-month price during the 12-month period
before the end of the year be used when estimating whether reserve quantities are economical to produce. This same 12-month average price is also used in calculating the aggregate amount of (and
changes in) future cash inflows related to the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows. The rules also allow for the use of reliable technology to estimate proved oil and gas reserves
if those technologies have been demonstrated to result in reliable conclusions about reserve volumes. The unaudited supplemental information on oil and gas exploration and production activities for
2012, 2013 and 2014 has been presented in accordance with these rules.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

NOTE JDISCLOSURES ABOUT OIL AND GAS ACTIVITIES (UNAUDITED) (Continued)

Estimates
of the proved oil and gas reserves attributable to the Trust as of December 31, 2012, 2013 and 2014 are based on reports of Cawley, Gillespie &
Associates, Inc., independent petroleum and geological engineers, and the contract property management engineering staff of the managers of MV Partners who operate the underlying properties, in
accordance with the SEC's rules and definitions. Users of this information should be aware that the process of estimating quantities of "proved" and "proved developed" and "proved undeveloped" crude
oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids reserves is very complex, requiring significant subjective decisions in the evaluation of all available geological, engineering and economic data for each
reservoir. The data for a given reservoir may also change substantially over time as a result of numerous factors, including additional development activity, evolving production history and continual
reassessment of the viability of production under varying economic conditions. Consequently, material revisions to existing reserve estimates occur from time to time.

The
reserve data below represent estimates only and should not be construed as being exact. Moreover, the discounted values should not be construed as representative of the current
market value of the Net Profits Interest. A market value determination would include many additional factors, including: (i) anticipated future oil and gas prices; (ii) the effect of
federal income taxes, if any, on the Trust; (iii) an allowance for return on investment; (iv) the effect of governmental legislation; (v) the value of additional potential
reserves, not considered proved at present, which may be recovered as a result of further exploration and development activities; and (vi) other business risks.

The
following tables set forth (i) the estimated net quantities of proved, proved developed and proved undeveloped oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids reserves attributable
to the Trust, and (ii) the standardized measure of the discounted future net profits interest income attributable to the Trust and the nature of changes in such standardized measure between
years. These tables are prepared on the accrual basis, which is the basis on which MV Partners maintains its production records and is different from the basis on which the Trust is reporting.

development of existing wells during the period.

The
Trust recognized net reductions to reserves for its share of MV Partners' total during 2013 associated with the production of properties of approximately 693,311 Boe. This reduction

Item 9.    Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

None.

Item 9A.    Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.The trustee maintains disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that
information to be
disclosed by the trust in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and regulations
promulgated by the SEC. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the trust is accumulated and communicated by
MV Partners to The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee of the trust, and its employees who participate in the preparation of the trust's periodic reports as appropriate to allow
timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As
of the end of the period covered by this report, the trustee carried out an evaluation of the trust's disclosure controls and procedures. Mike Ulrich, as Trust Officer of the trustee,
has concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures of the trust are effective.

Due
to the contractual arrangements of (i) the trust agreement and (ii) the conveyance of the net profits interest, the trustee relies on (A) information provided by
MV Partners, including historical operating data, plans for future operating and capital expenditures, reserve information and information relating to projected production, and (B) conclusions
and reports regarding reserves by the trust's independent reserve engineers. See Item 1A. Risk Factors "The trust and the public trust unitholders have no voting or managerial
rights with respect to MV Partners, the operator of the underlying properties. As a result, public trust unitholders have no ability to influence the operation of the underlying properties" in this
Form 10-K, and "Item 7. Trustee's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" for a description of certain risks relating to these arrangements and reliance
on information when reported by MV Partners to the trustee and recorded in the trust's results of operations.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.During the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2014, there has been no change
in the
trustee's internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the trustee's internal control over financial reporting. The trustee
notes for purposes of clarification that it has no authority over, and makes no statement concerning, the internal control over financial reporting of MV Partners.

Trustee's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.The trustee is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate
internal control
over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15f, by the trust. The trust's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision
of the trustee to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the trust's financial statements for external purposes in accordance with the
accounting permitted for royalty trusts by the SEC as specified by Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 12:E, Financial Statements of Royalty Trusts, which is a comprehensive basis of accounting other than
generally accepted accounting principles.

As
of December 31, 2014, the trustee assessed the effectiveness of the trust's internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective internal control over
financial reporting established in "Internal ControlIntegrated Framework," issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on that assessment, the
trustee determined that the trust maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014, based on those criteria.

Grant
Thornton LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm that audited the financial statements of the trust included in this annual report on Form 10-K, has
also audited the effectiveness of the trust's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014, as stated in their accompanying report.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To
the Trustee and Unitholders
MV Oil Trust

We
have audited the internal control over financial reporting of MV Oil Trust (the "Trust") as of December 31, 2014, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal ControlIntegrated Frameworkissued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Trustee is
responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying
Trustee's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Trust's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We
conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control
over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and
performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A
company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of
financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures
that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide
reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and
expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of the management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or
timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because
of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future
periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In
our opinion, the Trust maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014, based on criteria established in the
2013Internal ControlIntegrated Frameworkissued by COSO.

We
have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the statement of assets and trust corpus of the Trust as of
December 31, 2014, and the related statements of distributable income and changes in trust corpus for the year then ended, and our report dated March 12, 2015 expressed an unqualified
opinion on those financial statements.

The trust has no directors or executive officers. The trustee is a corporate trustee that may be removed by the affirmative vote of the
holders of not less than a majority of the outstanding trust units at a meeting at which a quorum is present.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act of 1934 requires the holders of more than 10 percent of the trust units to file with
the SEC reports regarding their ownership and changes in ownership of the trust units. The trustee believes that, during 2014, the trust's 10 percent unitholders complied with all
Section 16(a) filing requirements. In making these statements, the trustee has relied upon examination of the copies of Forms 3, 4 and 5, to the extent there were any, provided to the
trust.

Because the trust does not have a board of directors, it does not have an audit committee, an audit committee financial expert or a
nominating committee.

therefore, has not adopted a code of ethics applicable to such persons. However, employees of the trustee must comply with the bank's code of ethics.

During the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, the trustee received compensation from the trust in the amount of
$150,000 each year. The trust does not have any executive officers. Because the trust does not have a board of directors, it does not have a compensation committee.

interest unless earlier terminated by mutual agreement of the trustee and MV Partners.

Registration Rights

In
connection with the preparation and filing of any registration statement, MV Partners will bear all costs and expenses incidental to any registration statement, excluding certain
internal expenses of the trust, which will be borne by the trustee, and any underwriting discounts and commissions, which will be borne by the seller of the trust units.
