PART I

Item 1.Business

Hugoton Royalty Trust is an express trust created under the laws of Texas pursuant to the Hugoton Royalty Trust Indenture entered into on
December 1, 1998 between XTO Energy Inc. (formerly known as Cross Timbers Oil Company), as grantor, and NationsBank, N.A., as trustee. Southwest Bank is now the trustee of the trust. The principal office of the trust is located at
2911 Turtle Creek Blvd, Suite 850, Dallas, Texas 75219 (telephone number 855-588-7839).

On January 9, 2014, U.S. Trust, Bank of America
Private Wealth Management, a division of Bank of America, N.A., gave notice to unitholders that it would resign as trustee. At a special meeting of the trusts unitholders held on May 23, 2014, the unitholders of the trust voted to approve
the proposal to appoint Southwest Bank as successor trustee of the trust effective May 30, 2014.

The trusts internet web site is
www.hgt-hugoton.com. We make available free of charge, through our web site, our Annual Report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and all amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to
Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These reports are accessible through our internet web site as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically file such material with, or furnish it to, the Securities and
Exchange Commission.

Effective December 1, 1998, XTO Energy conveyed to the trust 80% net profits interests in certain predominantly natural
gas producing working interest properties in Kansas, Oklahoma and Wyoming under three separate conveyances. In exchange for these net profits interest conveyances to the trust, 40 million units of beneficial interest were issued to XTO Energy.
In April and May 1999, XTO Energy sold a total of 17 million units in the trusts initial public offering. In 1999 and 2000, XTO Energy also sold 1.3 million trust units to certain of its officers. The trust did not receive the
proceeds from these sales of trust units. Units are listed and traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol HGT. In May 2006, XTO Energy distributed all of its remaining 21.7 million trust units as a dividend to its common
stockholders. XTO Energy currently is not a unitholder of the trust.

On June 25, 2010, XTO Energy became a wholly owned subsidiary of Exxon
Mobil Corporation.

The net profits interests entitle the trust to receive 80% of the net proceeds from the sale of oil and gas from the underlying
properties. Each month XTO Energy determines the amount of cash received from the sale of production and deducts property and production taxes, production expense, development costs and overhead.

Net proceeds payable to the trust depend upon production quantities, sales prices of oil and gas and costs to develop and produce oil and gas in the
prior month. If monthly costs exceed revenues for any of the three conveyances (one for each of the states of Kansas, Oklahoma and Wyoming), such excess costs must be recovered, with accrued interest, from future net proceeds of that conveyance and
cannot reduce net proceeds from other conveyances.

Costs exceeded revenues on properties underlying the Kansas net profits interests in November
2014 and September 2012, on properties underlying the Wyoming net profits interests in July 2012 and on properties underlying the Oklahoma net profits interests in September 2012. The excess costs claimed underlying the Kansas and Oklahoma net
profits interests in September 2012 were subject to arbitration described more fully under Item 3  Legal Proceedings. For further information on excess costs, see Trustees Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations, under Item 7.

The trust is not liable for any production costs or liabilities attributable to the underlying
properties. If at any time the trust receives net profits income in excess of the amount due, the trust is not obligated to return such overpayment, but net profits income payable to the trust for the next month will be reduced by the overpayment,
plus interest at the prime rate.

As a working interest owner, XTO Energy can generally decline participation in any operation and allow consenting
parties to conduct such operations, as provided under the operating agreements. XTO Energy also can assign, sell, or otherwise transfer its interest in the underlying properties, subject to the net profits interests, or can abandon an underlying
property if it is incapable of producing in paying quantities, as determined by XTO Energy.

##### Table of Contents

To the extent allowed, XTO Energy is responsible for marketing its production from the underlying
properties under existing sales contracts, or new arrangements on the best terms reasonably obtainable in the circumstances. See Pricing and Sales Information under Item 2, Properties.

Net profits income received by the trust on or before the last business day of the month is related to net proceeds received by XTO Energy in the
preceding month, and is generally attributable to oil and gas production two months prior. The amount to be distributed to unitholders each month by the trustee is determined by:

Adding 

(1) net profits income received,

(2) interest income and any other cash receipts and

(3) cash available as a result of reduction of cash reserves, then

Subtracting 

(1) liabilities paid and

(2) the reduction in cash available related to establishment of or increase in any cash reserve.

The monthly distribution amount is distributed to unitholders of record within ten business days after the monthly record date. The monthly record date
is generally the last business day of the month. The trustee calculates the monthly distribution amount and announces the distribution per unit at least ten days prior to the monthly record date.

The trustee may establish cash reserves for contingencies. Cash held for such reserves, as well as for pending payment of the monthly distribution
amount, may be invested in federal obligations or certificates of deposit of major banks.

The trustees function is to collect the net profits
income from the net profits interests, to pay all trust expenses, and pay the monthly distribution amount to unitholders. The trustees powers are specified by the terms of the trust indenture. The trust cannot engage in any business activity
or acquire any assets other than the net profits interests and specific short-term cash investments. The trust has no employees since all administrative functions are performed by the trustee.

Approximately 78% of the net profits income received by the trust during 2014, as well as 81% of the estimated proved reserves of the net profits
interests at December 31, 2014 (based on estimated future net cash flows using 12-month average oil and gas prices, based on the first-day-of-the-month price for each month in the period), is attributable to natural gas. There has historically
been a greater demand for gas during the winter months than the rest of the year. Otherwise, trust income generally is not subject to seasonal factors, nor dependent upon patents, licenses, franchises or concessions. The trust conducts no research
activities.

The oil and gas industry is highly competitive in all its phases. Operators of the properties in which the trust holds interests
encounter competition from other oil and gas companies and from individual producers and operators. Oil and natural gas are commodities, for which market prices are determined by external supply and demand factors.

Item 1A.Risk Factors

The following factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking statements made in this report and
presented elsewhere by the trustee from time to time. Such factors may have a material adverse effect upon the trusts financial condition, distributable income and changes in trust corpus.

The following discussion of risk factors should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included under Item 8,
Financial Statements and Supplementary Data. Because of these and other factors, past financial performance should not be considered an indication of future performance.

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

The public trading price for the trust units tends to be tied to the recent and expected levels of cash distributions on the trust units. The amounts
available for distribution by the trust vary in response to numerous factors outside the control of the

trust or XTO Energy, including prevailing prices for oil and natural gas produced from the underlying properties. The market price of the trust units is not necessarily indicative of the value
that the trust would realize if the net profits interests were sold to a third party buyer. In addition, such market price is not necessarily reflective of 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. There is no guarantee that distributions made to a unitholder over the life of these
depleting assets will equal or exceed the purchase price paid by the unitholder.

Oil and natural gas prices fluctuate due to a number of uncontrollable
factors, and any decline will adversely affect the net proceeds payable to the trust and trust distributions.

The trusts monthly cash
distributions are highly dependent upon the prices realized from the sale of natural gas and, to a lesser extent, oil. Oil and natural gas prices can fluctuate widely on a month-to-month basis in response to a variety of factors that are beyond the
control of the trust and XTO Energy. Factors that contribute to price fluctuations include instability in oil-producing regions, worldwide economic conditions, weather conditions, the supply and price of domestic and foreign oil, natural gas and
natural gas liquids, consumer demand, the price and availability of alternative fuels, the proximity to, and capacity of, transportation facilities and the effect of worldwide energy conservation measures. Moreover, government regulations, such as
regulation of natural gas transportation and price controls, can affect product prices in the long term. Lower oil and natural gas prices may reduce the amount of oil and natural gas that is economic to produce and will reduce net profits available
to the trust. The volatility of energy prices reduces the predictability of future cash distributions to trust unitholders.

Higher production expense and/or
development costs, without concurrent increases in revenue, will directly decrease the net proceeds payable to the trust. Certain claimed production expenses by XTO Energy may reduce or eliminate distributions to unitholders for extended periods of
time.

Production expense and development costs are deducted in the calculation of the trusts share of net proceeds. Accordingly,
higher or lower production expense and development costs, without concurrent changes in revenue, will directly decrease or increase the amount received by the trust. If development costs and production expense for underlying properties in a
particular state exceed the production proceeds from the properties (as was the case with respect to the properties underlying the Kansas net profits interests in November 2014 and September 2012, the Wyoming net profits interests in July 2012 and
the Oklahoma net profits interests in September 2012), the trust will not receive net proceeds for those properties until future proceeds from production in that state 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. The excess costs claimed by XTO Energy in September 2012 underlying the Kansas and Oklahoma net profits interests were subject to arbitration described
more fully under Item 3  Legal Proceedings.

Proved reserve estimates depend on many assumptions that may turn out to be inaccurate. Any
material inaccuracies in reserve estimates or underlying assumptions could cause the quantities and net present value of the reserves to be overstated.

Estimating proved oil and gas reserves is inherently uncertain. Petroleum engineers consider many factors and make assumptions in estimating reserves and
future net cash flows. Those factors and assumptions include historical production from the area compared with production rates from similar producing areas, the effects of governmental regulation, assumptions about future commodity prices,
production expense and development costs, taxes and capital expenditures, the availability of enhanced recovery techniques and relationships with landowners, working interest partners, pipeline companies and others. Lower oil and gas prices
generally cause lower estimates of proved reserves. Ultimately, actual production, revenues and expenditures for the underlying properties will vary from estimates and those variances could be material. Because the trust owns net profits interests,
it does not own a specific percentage of the oil and gas reserves. Estimated proved reserves for the net profits interests are based on estimates of reserves for the underlying properties and an allocation method that considers estimated future net
proceeds and oil and gas prices. Because trust reserve quantities are determined using an allocation formula, increases or decreases in oil and gas prices can significantly affect estimated reserves of the net profits interests.

Operational risks and hazards associated with the development of the underlying properties may decrease trust
distributions.

There are operational risks and hazards associated with the production and transportation of oil and natural gas, including
without limitation natural disasters, blowouts, explosions, fires, leakage of oil or natural gas, releases of other hazardous materials, mechanical failures, cratering, and pollution. Any of these or similar occurrences could result in the
interruption or cessation of operations, personal injury or loss of life, property damage, damage to productive formations or equipment, damage to the environment or natural resources, or cleanup obligations. The operation of oil and gas properties
is also subject to various laws and regulations. Non-compliance with such laws and regulations could subject the operator to additional costs, sanctions or liabilities. The uninsured costs resulting from any of the above or similar occurrences could
be deducted as a production expense or development cost in calculating the net proceeds payable to the trust, and would therefore reduce trust distributions by the amount of such uninsured costs.

Future royalty income may be subject to risks relating to the creditworthiness of third parties.

The trust does not lend money and has limited ability to borrow money, which the trustee believes limits the trusts risk from the currently tight
credit markets. The trusts future royalty income, however, may be subject to risks relating to the creditworthiness of the operators of the underlying properties and other purchasers of crude oil and natural gas produced from the underlying
properties, as well as risks associated with fluctuations in the price of crude oil and natural gas.

Trust unitholders and the trustee have no influence over
the operations on, or future development of, the underlying properties.

Neither the trustee nor the trust unitholders can influence or
control the operation or future development of the underlying properties. The failure of an operator to conduct its operations or discharge its obligations in a proper manner could have an adverse effect on the net proceeds payable to the trust.
Although XTO Energy and other operators of the underlying properties must adhere to the standard of a prudent operator, they are under no obligation to continue operating the properties. Neither the trustee nor trust unitholders have the right to
replace an operator.

The assets of the trust represent interests in depleting assets and, if XTO Energy or any other operators developing the underlying
properties do not perform additional successful development projects, the assets may deplete faster than expected. Eventually, the assets of the trust will cease to produce in commercial quantities and the trust will cease to receive proceeds from
such assets.

The net proceeds payable to the trust are derived from the sale of hydrocarbons from depleting assets.
The reduction in proved reserve quantities is a common measure of the depletion. Future maintenance and development projects on the underlying properties will affect the quantity of proved reserves and can offset the reduction in proved reserves.
The timing and size of these projects will depend on the market prices of oil and natural gas. If the operator(s) of the properties do not implement additional maintenance and development projects, the future rate of production decline of proved
reserves may be higher than the rate currently expected by the trust. Because the net proceeds payable to the trust are derived from the sale of hydrocarbons from depleting assets, the portion of distributions to unitholders attributable to
depletion may be considered a return on capital as opposed to a return on investment. Distributions that are a return of capital will ultimately diminish the depletion tax benefits available to the unitholders, which could reduce the market value of
the units over time. Eventually, the properties underlying the trusts net profits interest will cease to produce in commercial quantities and the trust will, therefore, cease to receive any net proceeds therefrom.

Terrorism and continued geopolitical hostilities could adversely affect trust distributions or the market price of the trust units.

Terrorist attacks and the threat of terrorist attacks, whether domestic or foreign, as well as military or other actions taken in response,
cause instability in the global financial and energy markets. Terrorism and other geopolitical hostilities could adversely affect trust distributions or the market price of the trust units in unpredictable ways, including through the disruption of
fuel supplies and markets, increased volatility in oil and natural gas prices, or the possibility that the infrastructure on which the operators of the underlying properties rely could be a direct target or an indirect casualty of an act of terror.

XTO Energy may transfer its interest in the underlying properties without the consent of the trust or the trust
unitholders.

XTO Energy may at any time transfer all or part of its interest in the underlying properties to another party. Neither the
trust nor the trust unitholders are entitled to vote on any transfer of the properties underlying the trusts net profits interests, and the trust will not receive any proceeds of any such transfer. Following any transfer, the transferred
property will continue to be subject to the net profits interests of the trust, but the calculation, reporting and remitting of net proceeds to the trust will be the responsibility of the transferee.

XTO Energy or any other operator of any underlying property may abandon the property, thereby terminating the related net profits interest payable to the trust.

XTO Energy or any other operator of the underlying properties, or any transferee thereof, may abandon any well or property without the
consent of the trust or the trust unitholders if they reasonably believe that the well or property can no longer produce in commercially economic quantities. This could result in the termination of the net profits interest relating to the abandoned
well or property.

The net profits interests can be sold and the trust would be terminated.

The trust may sell the net profits interests if the holders of 80% or more of the outstanding trust units approve the sale or vote to terminate the
trust. The trust will terminate if it fails to generate gross proceeds from the underlying properties of at least $1,000,000 per year over any consecutive two-year period. Sale of all of the net profits interests will terminate the trust. The
net proceeds of any sale must be for cash with the proceeds promptly distributed to the trust unitholders.

Trust unitholders have limited voting rights and
have limited ability to enforce the trusts rights against XTO Energy or any other operator of the underlying properties.

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.
Additionally, trust unitholders have no voting rights in XTO Energy or Exxon Mobil Corporation.

The trust indenture and related trust law permit
the trustee and the trust to sue XTO Energy or any other operator of the underlying properties to compel them to fulfill the terms of the conveyance of the net profits interests. If the trustee does not take appropriate action to enforce provisions
of the conveyance, the recourse of the trust unitholders would likely be limited to bringing a lawsuit against the trustee to compel the trustee to take specified actions. Trust unitholders probably would not be able to sue XTO Energy or any other
operator of the underlying properties.

Financial information of the trust is not prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The financial statements of the trust are prepared on a modified cash basis of accounting, which is a comprehensive basis of accounting other than U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles, or U.S. GAAP. Although this basis of accounting is permitted for royalty trusts by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the financial statements of the trust differ from U.S. GAAP financial statements
because net profits income is not accrued in the month of production, expenses are not recognized when incurred and cash reserves may be established for certain contingencies that would not be recorded in U.S. GAAP financial statements.

The limited liability of trust unitholders is uncertain.

The trust unitholders are not protected from the liabilities of the trust to the same extent that a shareholder would be protected from a
corporations liabilities. The structure of the trust does not include the interposition of a limited liability entity such as a corporation or limited partnership which would provide further limited liability protection to trust unitholders.
While the trustee is liable for any excess liabilities incurred if the trustee fails to ensure that such liabilities are to be satisfied only out of trust assets, under the laws of Texas, which are unsettled on this point, a unitholder may be
jointly and severally liable for any



6



---

##### Table of Contents

liability of the trust if the satisfaction of such liability was not contractually limited to the assets of the trust and the assets of the trust and the trustee are not adequate to satisfy such
liability. As a result, trust unitholders may be exposed to personal liability. The trust, however, is not liable for production costs or other liabilities of the underlying properties.

Drilling oil and natural gas wells is a high-risk activity and subjects the trust to a variety of factors that it cannot control.

Drilling oil and natural gas wells involves numerous risks, including the risk that commercially productive oil and natural gas reservoirs are not
encountered. The presence of unanticipated pressures or irregularities in formations, miscalculations or accidents may cause drilling activities to be unsuccessful. In addition, there is often uncertainty as to the future cost or timing of drilling,
completing and operating wells. Further, development activities may be curtailed, delayed or canceled as a result of a variety of factors, including:



| |  |  | unexpected drilling conditions;
| | - |  | -------------------------------

| |  |  | title problems;
| | - |  | ---------------

| |  |  | restricted access to land for drilling or laying pipeline;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | pressure or irregularities in formations;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------

| |  |  | equipment failures or accidents;
| | - |  | --------------------------------

| |  |  | adverse weather conditions; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------

| |  |  | costs of, or shortages or delays in the availability of, drilling rigs, tubular materials and equipment.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

While these risks do not expose the trust to liabilities of the drilling contractor or operator of the well, they can reduce net proceeds payable to the
trust and trust distributions by decreasing oil and gas revenues or increasing production expense or development costs from the underlying properties. Furthermore, these risks may cause the costs of development activities on the underlying
properties to exceed the revenues therefrom, thereby reducing net proceeds payable to the trust and trust distributions.

The underlying properties are
subject to complex federal, state and local laws and regulations that could adversely affect net proceeds payable to the trust and trust distributions.

Extensive federal, state and local regulation of the oil and natural gas industry significantly affects operations on the underlying properties. In
particular, oil and natural gas development and production are subject to stringent environmental regulations. These regulations have increased the costs of planning, designing, drilling, installing, operating and abandoning oil and natural gas
wells and other related facilities, which costs could reduce net proceeds payable to the trust and trust distributions. These regulations may become more demanding in the future.

Item 1B.Unresolved Staff Comments

As of December 31, 2014, the trust did not have any unresolved Securities and Exchange Commission staff comments.

Item 2.Properties

The net profits interests are the principal asset of the trust. The trustee cannot acquire any other assets, with the exception of certain short-term
investments as specified under Item 1, Business. The trustee may sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the net profits interests if approved by a vote of holders of 80% or more of the outstanding trust units, or upon termination of
the trust. Otherwise, the trust is required to sell up to 1% of the value of the net profits interests in any calendar year, pursuant to notice from XTO Energy of its desire to sell the related underlying properties. Any sale must be for cash with
80% of the proceeds distributed to the unitholders on the next declared distribution. All the underlying properties are currently owned by XTO Energy. XTO Energy may sell all or any portion of the underlying properties at any time, subject to and
burdened by the net profits interests.

The underlying properties are predominantly gas-producing properties with established production histories
in the Hugoton area of Oklahoma and Kansas, the Anadarko Basin of Oklahoma and the Green River Basin of Wyoming. The average reserve-to-production index for the underlying properties as of December 31, 2014 is approximately 13 years. This index
is calculated using



7

##### Table of Contents

total proved reserves and estimated 2015 production for the underlying properties. The projected 2015 production is from proved developed producing reserves as of December 31, 2014. Based on
estimated future net cash flows at 12-month average oil and gas prices, based on the first-day-of-the-month price for each month in the period, the proved reserves of the underlying properties are approximately 82% natural gas and 18% oil. XTO
Energy operates approximately 95% of the underlying properties.

Because the underlying properties are working interests, production expense,
development costs and overhead are deducted in calculating net profits income. As a result, net profits income is affected by the level of maintenance and development activity on the underlying properties. See Trustees Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, under Item 7. Total 2014 development costs deducted for the underlying properties were $5.3 million, a decrease of 18% from the prior year. XTO Energy has informed the trustee that total 2015
budgeted development costs for the underlying properties are between $4 million and $6 million.

Significant Properties

Hugoton Area

Natural gas was discovered in the Hugoton
area in 1922. With an estimated five million productive acres covering parts of Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas, the Hugoton area is one of the largest domestic natural gas producing areas. During 2014, daily sales volumes from the underlying properties
in the Hugoton area averaged approximately 13,400 Mcf of gas and 28 Bbls of oil.

Most of the production from the underlying properties in the
Hugoton area is from the Chase formation. XTO Energy has informed the trustee that it has begun to develop other formations that underlie the 79,500 net acres held by production by the Chase formation wells, which include the Council Grove, Morrow,
Chester and St. Louis formations. These formations are characterized by both oil and gas production from a variety of structural and stratigraphic traps. Since 2003, XTO Energy has drilled wells to these formations and plans to continue this
development program.

Within this area, XTO Energy did not drill any wells but did perform 21 workovers in 2014. XTO Energy has informed the trustee
that it does not plan to drill any new wells but may perform up to 15 workovers during 2015.

XTO Energys future development plans for the
underlying properties in the Hugoton area include:



| |  |  | additional compression to lower line pressures,
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------

| |  |  | installing artificial lift,
| | - |  | ---------------------------

| |  |  | opening new producing zones in existing wells,
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------

| |  |  | restimulating producing intervals in existing wells utilizing new technology,
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | deepening existing wells to new producing zones, and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | drilling additional wells.
| | - |  | --------------------------

Prior to May 1, 2014, XTO Energy delivered most of its Hugoton gas
production to a gathering and processing system owned by a subsidiary, Timberland Gathering & Processing Company, Inc. (Timberland). Most of the gas was sold under the terms of a contract that was entered into in March 1996,
predating the existence of the trust. Timberland purchased the gas from XTO Energy at the wellhead, gathered and transported the gas to its plant, and treated and processed the gas at the plant. Timberland had been taking all of the gas produced for
over ten years. Timberland paid XTO Energy for wellhead volumes at a price of 80% to 85% of the net residue price received by XTO Energys marketing affiliate, which amount was adjusted for the BTU content of the gas. This marketing affiliate
sold the residue to a pipeline at a price based on a monthly pipeline index less actual third party fees.

XTO Energy has advised the trustee that
Timberland has notified XTO Energy that it has permanently shut down the processing portion of its facilities as of May 1, 2014 due to reliability issues. XTO Energy has advised the trustee that Timberland believes that investments and repairs
are not economically feasible; however, Timberland will continue to gather and compress gas from the Hugoton area. Effective May 1, 2014, XTO Energy has a gas purchase contract in place with DCP Midstream, L.P. to process all gas production
from its wells attached to the Timberland Gathering System in Seward County, Kansas and in Texas and Beaver Counties, Oklahoma. The system collects the majority of its throughput from underlying properties, which XTO Energy

has advised the trustee, in recent months, has been approximately 10,000 Mcf per day. XTO Energy receives 100% of the net value for residue gas based upon a price per MMBtu of Panhandle Eastern
Pipe Line Company index. XTO Energy receives 100% of the net value for any recovered NGLs based upon the monthly average of the daily average prices per gallon under Mont Belvieu Spot Gas Liquids Prices by Oil Price Information Service. XTO Energy
also receives 100% of the net value of its allocated recovered helium based upon the price published by the U. S. Bureau of Land Management for Crude Helium. Under this contract DCP is entitled to charge a processing fee of $0.25 and a helium
processing fee of $0.10 per Delivery Point MMBtu in addition to other deductions such as for fuel and transportation. The fees are subject to annual adjustment based on changes in the Consumer Price Index. The sales contract with DCP Midstream, L.P.
is in force from May 1, 2014 until March 31, 2019, and from year to year thereafter until canceled by either party upon 180 days written notice. XTO Energy has the contractual right to take in kind and sell any of its allocated products by
giving DCP appropriate notice as per the contract. Timberland, an affiliate of XTO Energy, provides gathering from the wellhead to DCPs gathering system for a fee of $0.75 per Mcf of gas delivered by XTO Energy.

Other Hugoton gas production is sold under a third party contract that remains in effect for the life of the lease. Under the contract, XTO Energy
receives 74.5% of the net proceeds received by the buyer from the sale of the residue gas and liquids produced from certain underlying properties. The residue gas net proceeds are based upon the weighted average price of the gas sold by the buyer at
its facilities, and the liquids net proceeds are based upon an average daily index sales price, less transportation, processing and storage fees incurred by the buyer. The buyer agrees to use its best efforts to take all of the gas produced, subject
to its market requirements. The buyer has been taking all of the gas produced for over ten years.

Anadarko Basin

Oil and gas accumulations were discovered in the Anadarko Basin of western Oklahoma in 1945. XTO Energy is one of the largest producers in the Ringwood,
Northwest Okeene and Cheyenne Valley fields of Major County, the Northeast Cedardale field of Woodward County and the Elk City field of Beckham County, the principal producing regions of the underlying properties in the Anadarko Basin. Daily sales
volumes from the underlying properties in the Anadarko Basin averaged 21,700 Mcf of gas and 509 Bbls of oil in 2014.

The fields in the Major
County area are characterized by oil and gas production from a variety of structural and stratigraphic traps. Productive zones include the Oswego, Red Fork, Inola, Chester, Manning, Mississippian, Hunton and Arbuckle formations. Within this area,
XTO Energy did not drill any wells but did perform 29 workovers in 2014. XTO Energy has informed the trustee that it does not plan to drill any new wells but may perform up to 27 workovers in Major County during 2015.

The fields within Woodward County are characterized primarily by gas production from a variety of structural and stratigraphic traps. Productive zones
include the Cottage Grove, Oswego, Chester and Mississippian formations. Within this area, XTO Energy did not drill any wells but did perform 5 workovers in 2014. XTO Energy has informed the trustee that it does not plan to drill any new wells but
may perform up to 5 workovers in Woodward County during 2015.

The Elk City field on the eastern edge of Beckham County produces oil and gas from a
structural anticline with stratigraphic trapping features. Production zones include the Hoxbar, Atoka and Morrow formations. Within this area, XTO Energy did not drill any wells but did perform 7 workovers in 2014. XTO Energy has informed the
trustee that it does not plan to drill any new wells but may perform up to 7 workovers within the Elk City field during 2015.

XTO Energy plans to
further develop the underlying properties in the Anadarko Basin primarily through:



| |  |  | mechanical stimulation of existing wells,
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------

| |  |  | installing artificial lift,
| | - |  | ---------------------------

| |  |  | opening new producing zones in existing wells,
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------

| |  |  | deepening existing wells to new producing zones, and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | drilling additional wells.
| | - |  | --------------------------

A gathering subsidiary of XTO Energy operates a 300-mile gathering system
and pipeline in the Major County area. The gathering subsidiary and a third-party processor purchase natural gas produced at the wellhead from XTO Energy and other



9

##### Table of Contents

producers in the area under various agreements, most of which were entered into in the 1960s and 1970s, and which include life-of-production terms such that the contracts will
continue until there is no further production from the underlying properties, unless the production declines so that it is no longer economical to take the gas. The gathering subsidiary and the third-party processor are required to take certain
minimum volumes of the gas produced but have been taking all of the volumes produced for over ten years. The gathering subsidiary gathers and transports the gas to a third-party processor, which processes the gas and pays XTO Energy and other
producers for at least 50% of the liquids processed based upon a weighted average sales price less transportation charges, which price may vary in the event of inadequate markets. After the gas is processed, the gathering subsidiary transports the
gas via a residue pipeline to a connection with an interstate pipeline. The gathering subsidiary sells the residue gas to the marketing subsidiary of XTO Energy based upon a weighted average price, which price will vary monthly based upon market
conditions. The gathering subsidiary pays this price to XTO Energy less a compression and gathering fee of approximately $0.31 per Mcf of residue gas. This gathering fee was previously approved by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission when the
gathering subsidiary was regulated and is unlikely to change. During 2014, the gathering system collected approximately 10,000 Mcf per day, approximately 50% of which XTO Energy operates. Estimated capacity of the gathering system is 24,000 Mcf per
day. The gathering subsidiary also provides contract operating services to properties in Woodward County, collecting approximately 5,000 Mcf per day, for an average fee of approximately $0.11 per Mcf. The fee is subject to an annual price
renegotiation under which either party can request that the price provided under the contract be renegotiated. The contract continues on a yearly basis, and it is subject to termination upon written notice prior to its annual renewal or in the event
the parties fail to agree upon a pricing renegotiation. XTO Energy also sells gas directly to its marketing subsidiary under a month-to-month contract, which then sells the gas to third parties. The price paid to XTO Energy is based upon the
weighted average price of several published indices, which price varies upon market conditions but does not include a deduction for any marketing fees. The price paid by the marketing affiliate includes a deduction for any transportation fees
charged by the third party. Neither party has a firm obligation to sell or purchase any specific minimum quantity of gas.

Green River Basin

The Green River Basin is located in southwestern Wyoming. Natural gas was discovered in the Fontenelle field of the Green River Basin in the early
1970s. The producing reservoirs are the Frontier, Baxter and Dakota sandstones.

Daily 2014 sales volumes from the underlying properties in
the Fontenelle field averaged 12,700 Mcf of natural gas and 21 Bbls of oil. XTO Energy did not drill any wells or perform any workovers in the Green River Basin in 2014. XTO Energy has advised the trustee that it does not plan to drill any new
wells but may perform up to 4 workovers in the Green River Basin during 2015. XTO Energy has advised the trustee that it is continuing its efforts to reduce pipeline pressure which has shown potential for increasing production and extending field
life in the Fontenelle Field.

Potential development activities for the underlying properties in this area include:



| |  |  | installing artificial lift,
| | - |  | ---------------------------

| |  |  | restimulating producing intervals utilizing new technology,
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | additional compression to lower line pressures, and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | opening new producing zones in existing wells.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------

XTO Energy markets the gas produced from the Fontenelle
field and nearby properties under various marketing arrangements. Under the agreement covering the majority of the gas sold, XTO Energy compresses the gas on the lease, transports it off the lease and compresses the gas again prior to entry into the
gas plant pipeline. The pipeline transports the gas to the gas plant, where the gas is processed, then redelivered to XTO Energy. The owner of the gas plant and related pipeline charges XTO Energy for operational fuel and processing and has agreed
to accept certain volumes, which amounts can be adjusted by the owner. The owner may be able to cease taking volumes if it has valid unaddressed concerns regarding the creditworthiness of XTO Energy. In 2014, the fuel charge was 2.77% of the volumes
produced and the processing fee was approximately $0.11 per MMBtu. These charges are adjusted annually based upon a published governmental economic index, and the contract renews on a year-to-year basis. XTO Energy transports and sells this gas
directly to the markets based on a spot sales price on a month-to-month term, and the volumes to be sold are generally determined upon a monthly basis. These contracts may be terminated by either party if there are credit issues with the other
party. The gas not sold under the above arrangement may be gathered and sold under a similar arrangement on a month-to-month term where the fee is approximately



10



---

##### Table of Contents

$0.19 per MMBtu and is adjusted annually. The amount of gas that the gatherer is required to gather is limited to certain maximum volumes, and the gatherer may be able to cease taking volumes if
it has valid unaddressed concerns regarding the creditworthiness of XTO Energy. Alternatively, the gas may be sold under a contract where XTO Energy directly sells the gas to a third party on the lease at an adjusted index price, which price varies
upon market conditions. The contract continues on a month-to-month basis, and the buyer is obligated to make a good faith effort to purchase a minimum 90% of the gas nominated by buyer for purchase. Condensate is sold to an independent third party
at market rates on a month-to-month basis. The purchaser accepts all condensate delivered at the lease, but either party may suspend performance of the contract if there are credit issues with the other party.

Producing Acreage, Drilling and Well Counts

For the
following data, gross refers to the total wells or acres on the underlying properties in which XTO Energy owns a working interest and net refers to gross wells or acres multiplied by the percentage working interest owned by
XTO Energy. Although many of XTO Energys wells produce both oil and gas, a well is categorized as an oil well or a gas well based upon the ratio of oil to natural gas production. Operated wells are managed by XTO Energy, while nonoperated
wells are managed by others.

The underlying properties are interests in developed properties located primarily in gas producing regions of Kansas,
Oklahoma and Wyoming. The following is a summary of the approximate producing acreage of the underlying properties at December 31, 2014. Undeveloped acreage is not significant.

|(a) | Based on 12-month average oil price of $92.70 per Bbl and $4.35 per Mcf for gas, based on the first-day-of-the-month price for each month in the period. Discounted estimated future net cash flows from proved reserves
decreased 4% from year-end 2013 to 2014, primarily because of 2014 production and downward revisions of prior reserve estimates, partially offset by a 11% increase in gas prices.

Approximately 84% of the underlying proved reserves are proved developed reserves.

The process of estimating oil and gas reserves is complex and requires significant judgment as discussed in Item 1A, Risk Factors, and is performed
by XTO Energy. As a result, XTO Energy has developed internal policies and controls for estimating and recording reserves. XTO Energys policies regarding booking reserves require proved reserves to be in compliance with the SEC definitions and
guidance. XTO Energys policies assign responsibilities for compliance in reserves bookings to its reserve engineering group and require that reserve estimates be made by qualified reserves estimators, as defined by the Society of Petroleum
Engineers standards. All qualified reserves estimators are required to receive education covering the fundamentals of SEC proved reserves assignments.

The XTO Energy reserve engineering group reviews reserve estimates with our third-party petroleum consultants, Miller and Lents, Ltd., independent
petroleum engineers. Miller and Lents, Ltd. estimated oil and gas reserves attributable to the underlying properties as of December 31, 2014, 2013, 2012 and 2011. Miller and Lents primary technical person responsible for calculating the
trusts reserves has more than 30 years of experience as a reserve engineer. The estimated reserves for the underlying

properties are then used by XTO Energy to calculate the estimated oil and gas reserves attributable to the net profits interests. Numerous uncertainties are inherent in estimating reserve volumes
and values, and such estimates are subject to change as additional information becomes available. The reserves actually recovered and the timing of production of these reserves may be substantially different from the original estimates.

Reserve quantities and revenues for the net profits interests were estimated from projections of reserves and revenues attributable to the combined
interests of the trust and XTO Energy in the subject properties. Since the trust has defined net profits interests, the trust does not own a specific percentage of the oil and gas reserve quantities. Accordingly, reserves allocated to the trust
pertaining to its 80% net profits interests in the properties have effectively been reduced to reflect recovery of the trusts 80% portion of applicable production and development costs. Because trust reserve quantities are determined using an
allocation formula, any fluctuations in actual or assumed prices or costs will result in revisions to the estimated reserve quantities allocated to the net profits interests.

Oil and Natural Gas Production

Trust production is
recognized in the period net profits income is received, which is the month following receipt by XTO Energy, and generally two months after the time of production. Oil and gas production and average sales prices attributable to the underlying
properties and the net profits interests for each of the three years ended December 31 were as follows:

Pricing and Sales Information

XTO Energy sells a portion of its natural gas production directly to third parties, and the rest is sold to a subsidiary of XTO Energy based on a
weighted average sales price. The weighted average sales price received from the subsidiary is based upon sales to third parties for the best available price. Oil production is generally marketed at the wellhead to third parties at the best
available price. XTO Energy arranges for some of its natural gas to be processed by unaffiliated third parties and markets the natural gas liquids. Most of the natural gas attributable to the underlying properties is marketed under contracts
existing at trust inception. Contracts covering production from the Ringwood area of the Major County area are generally for the life of the lease. The contract with an unaffiliated third party for the majority of production from the Hugoton area
was extended through 2019. If new contracts are entered with unaffiliated third parties, the proceeds from sales under those new contracts will be included in gross proceeds from the underlying properties. If new contracts are entered with XTO
Energys marketing subsidiary, it may charge XTO Energy a fee that may not exceed 2% of the sales price of the oil and natural gas received from unaffiliated parties. The sales price is net of any deductions for transportation from the wellhead
to the unaffiliated parties and any gravity or quality adjustments. For further information on these arrangements see Significant Properties above.

Regulation

Natural Gas Regulation

The
interstate transportation and sale for resale of natural gas is subject to federal regulation, including transportation and storage rates charged, tariffs, and various other matters, by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. Federal price
controls on wellhead sales of domestic natural gas terminated on January 1, 1993. While natural gas prices are currently unregulated, Congress historically has been active in the area of natural gas regulation. On August 8, 2005, Congress
enacted the Energy Policy Act of 2005. The Energy Policy Act, among other things, amended the Natural Gas Act to prohibit market manipulation by any entity, to direct FERC to facilitate market transparency in the market for sale or transportation of
physical natural gas in interstate commerce, and to significantly increase the penalties for violations of the Natural Gas Act, the Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978, or FERC rules, regulations or orders thereunder. FERC has promulgated regulations to
implement the Energy Policy Act, including enforcement rules and new annual reporting requirements for certain sellers of natural gas. It is impossible to predict whether new legislation to regulate natural gas might be proposed, what proposals, if
any, might actually be enacted by Congress or the various state legislatures, and what effect, if any, such proposals might have on the operations of the underlying properties.

Federal Regulation of Oil

Sales of crude
oil, condensate and natural gas liquids are not currently regulated and are made at market prices. The net price received from the sale of these products is affected by market transportation costs. Under rules adopted by FERC effective January 1995,
interstate oil pipelines can change rates based on an inflation index, though other rate mechanisms may be used in specific circumstances.

On
December 19, 2007, the President signed into law the Energy Independence & Security Act of 2007 (PL 110-140). The EISA, among other things, prohibits market manipulation by any person in connection with the purchase or sale of crude
oil, gasoline or petroleum distillates at wholesale in contravention of such rules and regulations that the Federal Trade Commission may prescribe, directs the Federal Trade Commission to enforce the regulations, and establishes penalties for
violations thereunder. XTO Energy has advised the trustee that it cannot predict the impact of future government regulation on any crude oil, condensate or natural gas liquids facilities, sales or transportation transactions.

Environmental Regulation

Companies that are
engaged in the oil and gas industry are affected by federal, state and local laws regulating the discharge of materials into the environment. Those laws may impact operations of the underlying properties. No material expenses have been incurred on
the underlying properties in complying with environmental laws and regulations. XTO Energy does not expect that future compliance will have a material adverse effect on the trust.

##### Table of Contents

There is an increased focus by local, national and international regulatory bodies on greenhouse gas (GHG)
emissions and climate change. Several states have adopted climate change legislation and regulations, and various other regulatory bodies have announced their intent to regulate GHG emissions or adopt climate change regulations. As these regulations
are under development, XTO Energy is unable to predict the total impact of the potential regulations upon the operators of the underlying properties, and it is possible that operators of the underlying properties could face increases in operating
costs in order to comply with climate change or GHG emissions legislation, which costs could reduce net proceeds payable to the trust and trust distributions.

State Regulation

The various states regulate
the production and sale of oil and natural gas, including imposing requirements for obtaining drilling permits, the method of developing new fields, the spacing and operation of wells and the prevention of waste of oil and gas resources. The rates
of production may be regulated and the maximum daily production allowables from both oil and gas wells may be established on a market demand or conservation basis, or both.

Federal Income Taxes

For federal income tax
purposes, the trust constitutes a fixed investment trust that is taxed as a grantor trust. A grantor trust is not subject to tax at the trust level. The unitholders are considered to own the trusts income and principal as though no trust were
in existence. The income of the trust is deemed to have been received or accrued by each unitholder at the time such income is received or accrued by the trust and not when distributed by the trust.

Because the trust is a grantor trust for federal tax purposes, each unitholder is taxed directly on his proportionate share of income, deductions and
credits of the trust consistent with each such unitholders taxable year and method of accounting and without regard to the taxable year or method of accounting employed by the trust. The income of the trust consists primarily of a specified
share of the net profits from the sale of oil and natural gas produced from the underlying properties. During 2014, the trust incurred administration expenses and earned interest income on funds held for distribution and for the cash reserve
maintained for the payment of contingent and future obligations of the trust.

The net profits interests constitute economic interests
in oil and gas properties for federal tax purposes. Each unitholder is entitled to amortize the cost of the units through cost depletion over the life of the net profits interests or, if greater, through percentage depletion equal to 15 percent of
gross income. Unlike cost depletion, percentage depletion is not limited to a unitholders depletable tax basis in the units. Rather, a unitholder is entitled to a percentage depletion deduction as long as the applicable underlying properties
generate gross income. Unitholders may compute both percentage depletion and cost depletion from each property and claim the larger amount as a deduction on their income tax returns.

If a taxpayer disposes of any Section 1254 property (certain oil, gas, geothermal or other mineral property), and the adjusted basis of such
property includes adjustments for depletion deductions under Section 611 of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code), the taxpayer generally must recapture the amount deducted for depletion as ordinary income (to the extent of gain
realized on the disposition of the property). This depletion recapture rule applies to any disposition of property that was placed in service by the taxpayer after December 31, 1986. Detailed rules set forth in Sections 1.1254-1 through
1.1254-6 of the U.S. Treasury Regulations govern dispositions of property after March 13, 1995. The Internal Revenue Service likely will take the position that a unitholder must recapture depletion upon the disposition of a unit.

Interest and net profits income attributable to ownership of units and any gain on the sale thereof are considered portfolio income, and not income from
a passive activity, to the extent a unitholder acquires and holds units as an investment and not in the ordinary course of a trade or business. Therefore, interest and net profits income attributable to ownership of units generally may
not be offset by losses from any passive activities.

Under current law, the highest marginal U.S. federal income tax rate applicable to ordinary
income of individuals is 39.6%, and the highest marginal U.S. federal income tax rate applicable to long-term capital gains (generally, gains from the sale or exchange of certain investment assets held for more than one year) and qualified dividends
of individuals is 20%. Such marginal



15



---

##### Table of Contents

tax rates may be effectively increased by up to 1.2% due to the phaseout of personal exemptions and the limitations on itemized deductions. The highest marginal U.S. federal income tax rate
applicable to corporations is 35%, and such rate applies to both ordinary income and capital gains.

Section 1411 of the Code imposes a 3.8%
Medicare tax on certain investment income earned by individuals, estates, and trusts for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2012. For these purposes, investment income generally will include a unitholders allocable share of the
trusts interest and royalty income plus the gain recognized from a sale of trust units. In the case of an individual, the tax is imposed on the lesser of (i) the individuals net investment income from all investments, or
(ii) the amount by which the individuals modified adjusted gross income exceeds specified threshold levels depending on such individuals federal income tax filing status. In the case of an estate or trust, the tax is imposed on the
lesser of (i) undistributed net investment income, or (ii) the excess adjusted gross income over the dollar amount at which the highest income tax bracket applicable to an estate or trust begins.

The unitholders have income in 2014 as a result of the trust receiving the amounts required to be paid under the arbitration award relating to XTO
Energys treatment of the Fankhouser settlement (discussed in Item 3  Legal Proceedings). A portion of the arbitration award represents the reimbursement of amounts withheld from the September and October 2012 trust
distributions, which is treated as additional gross royalty income reported by and taxable to the unitholders, when received or accrued by the trust, depending on the unitholders method of accounting. In addition, a portion of the arbitration
award represents the reimbursement of attorneys fees and other administrative fees and expenses, which is reflected through a decrease in the trusts administrative expenses and thus the unitholders deductions in determining the net
royalty income from the trust. The interest portion of the arbitration award is taxable interest income to unitholders, when received or accrued by the trust, depending on the unitholders method of accounting. See Item 3 
Legal Proceedings for additional information.

The difference between the per-unit taxable income for any period and the per-unit cash
distributions, if any, reported for such period is attributable to (i) items that are not currently deductible, such as an increase in the cash reserve maintained by the trust for the payment of future expenditures, (ii) the current
deduction of expenses that are paid with amounts previously reserved and (iii) items that do not constitute taxable income, such as a decrease in the cash reserve maintained by the trust and/or a return of capital. In 2014, 2013 and 2012, the
trustee has elected to reserve amounts from monthly distributions in anticipation of legal fees related to current and anticipated litigation (see discussion in Item 3  Legal Proceedings), so the taxable income per period has frequently
differed from the actual amount distributed to unitholders.

Individuals may also incur expenses in connection with the acquisition or maintenance
of trust units. These expenses, which are different from a unitholders share of the trusts administrative expenses discussed above, may be deductible as miscellaneous itemized deductions only to the extent that such expenses
exceed 2 percent of the individuals gross income.

Pursuant to the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (commonly referred to as
FATCA), distributions from the trust to foreign financial institutions and certain other non-financial foreign entities may be subject to U.S. withholding taxes. Specifically, certain withholdable
payments (including certain royalties, interest and other gains or income from U.S. sources) made to a foreign financial institution or non-financial foreign entity will generally be subject to the withholding tax unless the foreign financial
institution or non-financial foreign entity complies with certain information reporting, withholding, identification, certification and related requirements imposed by FATCA. Foreign financial institutions located in jurisdictions that have an
intergovernmental agreement with the United States governing FATCA may be subject to different rules.

The Treasury Department recently issued
guidance providing that the FATCA withholding rules described above generally will apply to qualifying payments made after June 30, 2014. Foreign unitholders are encouraged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the possible implications
of these withholding provisions on their investment in trust units.

Some trust units are held by middlemen, as such term is broadly defined in U.S.
Treasury Regulations (and includes custodians, nominees, certain joint owners, and brokers holding an interest for a customer in street name, collectively referred to herein as middlemen). Therefore, the trustee considers the trust to be
a non-mortgage widely held fixed investment trust (WHFIT) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Southwest Bank, EIN: 75-1105980, Post Office Box 962020, Fort Worth, Texas, 76162-2020, telephone number 1-855-588-7839, email address
trustee@hgt-hugoton.com, is the representative of the trust that



16



---

##### Table of Contents

will provide tax information in accordance with applicable U.S. Treasury Regulations governing the information reporting requirements of the trust as a WHFIT. Tax information is also posted by
the trustee at www.hgt-hugoton.com. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the middlemen holding trust units on behalf of unitholders, and not the trustee of the trust, are solely responsible for complying with the information reporting requirements
under the U.S. Treasury Regulations with respect to such trust units, including the issuance of IRS Forms 1099 and certain written tax statements. 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.

Unitholders should consult their tax advisors regarding
trust tax compliance matters.

State Income Taxes

All revenues from the trust are from sources within Kansas, Oklahoma or Wyoming. Kansas and Oklahoma each impose a state income tax, which is potentially
applicable to income from the net profits interests located in each of those states. Because it distributes all of its net income to unitholders, the trust has not been taxed at the trust level in Kansas or Oklahoma. While the trust has not owed
tax, the trustee is required to file a return with Kansas and Oklahoma reflecting the income and deductions of the trust attributable to properties located in each state, along with a schedule that includes information regarding distributions to
unitholders. Oklahoma taxes the income of nonresidents from real property located within the state, and the trust has been advised by counsel that Oklahoma will tax nonresidents on income from the net profits interest located within the state.
Kansas also taxes the income of nonresidents from property located within the state. However, Kansas allows individuals to deduct certain amounts, including net income from royalties reported on Schedule E of their Form 1040 federal individual
income tax return, from their federal adjusted gross income when calculating their Kansas taxable income. This deduction applies to amounts reported as royalty income that are received from grantor trusts, such as the trust. Kansas and Oklahoma also
impose a corporate income tax that may apply to unitholders organized as corporations (subject to certain exceptions for S corporations and limited liability companies, depending on their treatment for federal tax purposes).

Wyoming does not have a state income tax.

Each
unitholder should consult his or her own tax advisor regarding state income tax requirements, if any, applicable to such persons ownership of trust units.

State Tax Withholding

Several states have
enacted legislation requiring state income tax withholding from nonresident recipients of oil and gas proceeds. After consultation with its tax counsel, the trustee believes that it is not required to withhold on payments made to the unitholders.
However, regulations are subject to change by the various states, which could change this conclusion. Should amounts be withheld on payments made to the trust or the unitholders, distributions to the unitholders would be reduced by the required
amount, subject to the filing of a claim for refund by the trust or unitholders for such amount.

Other Regulation

The Minerals Management Service of the United States Department of the Interior amended the crude oil valuation regulations in July 2004 and the natural
gas valuation regulations in June 2005 for oil and natural gas produced from federal oil and natural gas leases. The principal effect of the oil regulations pertains to which published market prices are most appropriate to value crude oil not sold
in an arms-length transaction and what transportation deductions should be allowed. The principal effect of the natural gas valuation regulations pertains to the calculation of transportation deductions and changes necessitated by judicial
decisions since the regulations were last amended. Seven percent of the net acres of the underlying properties, primarily located in Wyoming, involve federal leases. Neither of these changes have had a significant effect on trust distributions.

The petroleum industry is also subject to compliance with various other federal, state and local regulations and laws, including, but not limited to,
regulations and laws relating to environmental protection, occupational safety, resource conservation and equal employment opportunity. XTO Energy has advised the trustee that it does not believe that compliance with these laws will have any
material adverse effect upon the unitholders.

Item 3.Legal Proceedings

XTO Energy settled the Fankhouser v. XTO Energy, Inc. royalty class action lawsuit for $37 million. The settlement was given final approval by the
court on October 10, 2012. XTO Energy advised the trustee that $1.4 million of the settlement was attributable to Kansas claims which predated the trust. The settlement also included a new royalty calculation for future royalty payments.

XTO Energy and the trustee arbitrated the issue of whether the Fankhouser settlement could be charged to the trust net proceeds ($28.5 million;
$23.4 million and $5.1 million affecting the net proceeds from Oklahoma and Kansas, respectively, in addition to a reduction in the net profits going forward). The three panel tribunal issued a decision on April 21, 2014. Based on that ruling,
XTO Energy is prohibited from charging any portion of the Fankhouser settlement (including the new royalty calculation for future royalty payments) to the trust, now or in the future. Additionally, XTO Energy had to reimburse $4,386,396 which
represents amounts withheld from the September and October 2012 distributions and $1,985,438 which represents attorney fees, arbitration expenses and interest.

The trust filed Southwest Bank, as Successor Trustee to Bank of America, N.A., as Trustee for the Hugoton Royalty Trust v. XTO Energy, Inc., no.
017-274777-14 in the 17th state district court of Tarrant County, Texas, seeking judicial confirmation of the April 21, 2014 arbitration award. The arbitration award was entered into as a final judgment on December 12, 2014.

In September 2008, a royalty class action lawsuit was filed against XTO Energy styled Wallace B. Roderick Revocable Living Trust, et al. v. XTO
Energy Inc. in the District Court of Kearny County, Kansas. The case was removed to federal court in Wichita, Kansas. The plaintiffs allege that XTO Energy has improperly taken post production costs from royalties paid to the plaintiffs from
wells located in Kansas, Oklahoma, and Colorado; later reduced to Kansas. The case was certified as a class action in March 2012. XTO Energy filed an appeal of the class certification to the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals on April 11, 2012 which
was granted on June 26, 2012. The court reversed the certification of the class and remanded the case back to the trial court for further proceedings. In its pleadings, the plaintiff has alleged damages in excess of $42.5 million.

In December 2010, a royalty class action lawsuit was filed against XTO Energy styled Chieftain Royalty Company v. XTO Energy Inc. in Coal County
District Court, Oklahoma. XTO Energy removed the case to federal court in the Eastern District of Oklahoma. The plaintiffs allege that XTO Energy wrongfully deducted fees from royalty payments on Oklahoma wells, failed to make diligent efforts to
secure the best terms available for the sale of gas and its constituents, and demand an accounting to determine whether they have been fully and fairly paid gas royalty interests. The case was certified as a class action in April 2012. XTO Energy
filed an appeal of the class certification to the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals on April 26, 2012 which was granted on June 26, 2012. The court reversed the certification of the class and remanded the case back to the trial court for
further proceedings.

XTO Energy has informed the trustee that it believes that XTO Energy has strong defenses to these lawsuits and intends to
vigorously defend its position. However, XTO Energy has informed the Trustee that it is cognizant of other, similar litigation, such as Fankhouser, and other, unrelated entities. As these cases develop, XTO Energy will assess its legal
position accordingly. If XTO Energy ultimately makes any settlement payments or receives a judgment against it in Chieftain or Roderick, XTO Energy has advised the trustee that it believes that the terms of the conveyances covering the
trusts net profits interests require the trust to bear its 80% share of such settlement or judgment related to production from the underlying properties. Additionally, if the judgment or settlement increases the amount of future payments to
royalty owners, XTO Energy has informed the trustee that the trust would bear its proportionate share of the increased payments through reduced net proceeds. In the event of any such settlement or judgment, the trustee intends to review any claimed
reductions in payment to the trust based on the facts and circumstances of such settlement or judgment. In light of the arbitration tribunals decision on the treatment of the Fankhousersettlement, to the extent that the claims in
Chieftain or Roderick are similar to those in Fankhouser,the trustee would likely object to such claimed reductions. XTO Energy has informed the trustee that, although the amount of any reduction in net proceeds is not
presently determinable, in its managements opinion, the amount is not currently expected to be material to the trusts financial position or liquidity though it could be material to the trusts annual distributable income.
Additionally, XTO Energy has advised the trustee that any reductions would result in costs exceeding revenues on the properties underlying the net profit interests of the cases named above, as applicable, for several monthly distributions, depending
on the size of the judgment or

settlement, if any, and the net proceeds being paid at that time, which would result in the net profits interest being limited until such time that the revenues exceed the costs for those net
profit interests. If there is a settlement or judgment and should XTO Energy and the trustee disagree concerning the amount of the settlement or judgment to be charged, if any, against the trusts net profits interests, the matter will be
resolved by binding arbitration through the American Arbitration Association under the terms of the Indenture creating the trust.

On
September 12, 2012, a lawsuit was filed against Bank of America as trustee and XTO Energy styled Harold Lamb v. Bank of America and XTO Energy Inc., in the U.S. District Court  Western District of Oklahoma. The plaintiff, Harold
Lamb, is a unitholder in the trust and alleged that XTO Energy failed to properly pay and account to the trust under the terms of the net overriding royalty conveyances on certain Kansas and Oklahoma properties and that Bank of America, N.A., as the
previous trustee, failed to properly oversee such payment and accounting by XTO Energy. Additionally, the plaintiff alleged that Bank of America, N.A. and XTO Energy breached a fiduciary duty to the trust based on the allegations found in the
Fankhouser class action discussed above. The plaintiff sought unspecified amounts for actual/compensatory damages, punitive damages, disgorgement and injunctive relief. Sandra Goebel, another unitholder of the trust, filed a Motion to
Intervene in Lambs lawsuit and to stay the action in favor of her lawsuit pending in the Dallas County District Court (see discussion below) or, in the alternative, for the court to appoint her attorneys lead counsel in Lambs lawsuit. On
September 5, 2014, Goebel withdrew her Motion to Intervene. That same day, Lamb filed a Motion to Voluntarily Dismiss his claims. On September 29, 2014, the Lamb case was dismissed without prejudice to refile in state court.
Lambs counsel has been added as counsel of record for Goebel.

On August 12, 2013, a demand for arbitration styled Sandra G. Goebel
vs. XTO Energy, Inc., Timberland Gathering & Processing Company, Inc. and Bank of America, N.A.was filed with the American Arbitration Association (AAA). The claimant, Sandra Goebel, is a unitholder in the trust and alleged
that XTO Energy breached the conveyances by misappropriating funds from the trust by failing to modify its existing sales contracts with its affiliate Timberland Gathering & Processing Company, Inc. (Timberland). Goebel alleged
that these contracts did not currently reflect market rate terms, and that XTO had a duty to renegotiate the contracts to obtain more favorable terms. The claimant further alleged that Bank of America, N.A. (the previous trustee)
breached its fiduciary duty by acquiescing to and facilitating XTO Energys alleged self-dealing and concealing information from unitholders that would have revealed XTO Energys breaches. The claim also alleged aiding and abetting breach
of fiduciary duty by XTO Energy, and disgorgement and unjust enrichment by Timberland. The claimant sought from the respondents damages of an estimated $59.6 million for alleged royalty underpayments, exemplary damages, an accounting by XTO Energy,
a declaration, costs, reasonable attorneys fees, and pre-judgment and post-judgment interest. Goebel purported to sue on behalf of and for the benefit of the Hugoton Royalty Trust. Bank of America, N.A. filed a response to the arbitration
demand denying any liability arising out of the claimants allegations and objecting to the arbitrability of Goebels claims against Bank of America, N.A. The arbitration panel ruled that Goebels claims are not arbitrable and
dismissed the claims in their entirety without prejudice. Goebel has refiled the matter as a lawsuit styled Sandra G. Goebel vs. XTO Energy, Inc., Timberland Gathering and Processing Company, Inc. and Bank of America, N.A. in Dallas County
District Court. The allegations are the same as those contained in the previous arbitration demand. Defendants answered with general denials and additionally filed pleas to the jurisdiction, special exceptions, and a plea in abatement challenging,
among other things, Goebels putative authority to bring claims on behalf of the trust over the trustees objection. The Defendants also filed a joint motion to stay the Goebel case in favor of the first filed Lamb case
discussed above. The court denied Defendants pleas to the jurisdiction and special exceptions, although it did not rule on the plea in abatement. Simultaneously, the judge conditionally stayed the case pending a ruling on Goebels Motion
to Intervene in the Lamb case. On September 5, 2014, however, Goebel withdrew her Motion to Intervene. That same day, Lamb filed a Motion to Voluntarily Dismiss his federal district court lawsuit (see discussion above). Goebel filed a
motion to lift the stay in the state district court; while XTO Energy, Timberland and Bank of America (individually and now as former trustee) filed a motion to stay the case pending a mandamus appeal of the district courts denial of their
pleas to the jurisdiction and special exceptions. On October 30, 2014, the district court granted Plaintiffs motion to lift stay. On October 31, 2014, the district court denied Defendants motion to stay pending mandamus. On
November 7, 2014, the Defendants filed their petition for writ of mandamus with the Dallas Court of Appeals. Defendants also filed a motion seeking a stay from the court of appeals, along with the petition for writ of mandamus. On
November 13, 2014, the court of appeals granted Defendants motion and stayed the lawsuit, including all associated discovery, until the court opines on the petition for writ of mandamus. Goebel filed a response to the petition for the
writ of mandamus on December 16, 2014 and the Defendants replied on January 13, 2015. Accordingly, the petition has been fully briefed and is awaiting a decision from the court of appeals. Southwest Bank, the current trustee, has not yet
been named a party in the case. The trustee will vigorously defend any claims that may be asserted against it.

##### Table of Contents

XTO Energy has informed the trustee that it believes that XTO Energy and Timberland have strong defenses to this lawsuit and intend to vigorously defend their positions. Bank of America has
informed the trustee that it believes it has strong defenses to the lawsuit and will vigorously defend its position. The terms of the trust indenture provide that Bank of America and/or the trustee shall be indemnified by the trust and shall have no
liability, other than for fraud, gross negligence or acts or omissions in bad faith as adjudicated by final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

The trustee anticipates that the trust will incur additional legal and other expenses in connection with the Goebellawsuit. As a result, the
trustee reserved an additional $1.6 million from trust distributions for the Goebel litigation, beginning with the September 2013 distribution. The September 2013 through December 2013 distributions each reflected a deduction of $400,000 in
connection with such reserve. Additionally, the trustee previously reserved an additional $1.6 million from trust distributions for the Lamb litigation but that is now a part of the reserve for the Goebellawsuit. The January 2014
through April 2014 distributions each reflected a deduction of $400,000 in connection with such reserve. As the Goebel lawsuit progresses, the trustee may need to revise the reserve.

Certain of the underlying properties are involved in various other lawsuits and governmental proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. XTO
Energy has advised the trustee that it does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these claims will have a material effect on the financial position or liquidity of the trust, but may have an effect on annual distributable income.

|(a) | Because of the two-month interval between time of production and receipt of net profits income by the trust: 1) oil and gas sales for the year ended December 31 generally relate to twelve months of
production for the period November through October, and 2) oil and gas sales for the three months ended December 31 generally relate to production for the period August through October.
|--- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(b) | Oil and gas sales volumes are allocated to the net profits interests based upon a formula that considers oil and gas prices and the total amount of production expense and development costs. As product prices
change, the trusts share of the production volumes is impacted as the quantity of production to cover expenses in reaching the net profits break-even level changes inversely with price. As such, the underlying property production volume
changes may not correlate with the trusts net profit share of those volumes in any given period. Therefore, comparative discussion of oil and gas sales volumes is based on the underlying properties.

Results of Operations

Years
Ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012

Net profits income for 2014 was $44,446,473, as compared with $37,333,595 for 2013 and $25,132,038
for 2012. The 19% increase in net profits income from 2013 to 2014 is primarily the result of higher gas prices ($8.5 million) and the May 2014 arbitration reimbursement ($4.4 million), partially offset by decreased oil and gas production ($5.7
million). The 49% increase in net profits income from 2012 to 2013 is primarily the result of higher oil and gas prices ($13.1 million), the portion of the Fankhouser settlement deducted in September and October 2012 ($4.4 million) and
proceeds from the property sale in May 2013 ($1.0 million), partially offset by decreased oil and gas production ($6.3 million). Approximately 78% in 2014, 76% in 2013 and 74% in 2012 of net profits income was derived from natural gas sales.

Trust administration expense was $1,153,924 in 2014 as compared to $2,827,015 in 2013 and $1,859,626 in 2012. Included in 2014 administration expense is
$1,600,000 which the trustee reserved for legal expenses regarding the Lamb lawsuit but partially offset by $1,470,618 related to the arbitration reimbursement. Included in 2013 administration expense is $1,600,000 which the trustee has
reserved for legal expenses regarding the Goebellawsuit and included in 2012 was $900,000 which the trustee reserved for legal expenses regarding the arbitration relating to the Fankhouser class action settlement. Interest income was
$517,131 in 2014, $700 in 2013 and $508 in 2012. Interest income for 2014 included $514,820 related to the arbitration reimbursement. Changes in interest income are attributable to fluctuations in net profits income and interest rates. Distributable
income was $43,809,680 or $1.095242 per unit in 2014, $34,507,280 or $0.862682 per unit in 2013 and $23,272,920 or $0.581823 per unit in 2012.

Net
profits income is recorded when received by the trust, which is the month following receipt by XTO Energy, and generally two months after oil and gas production. Net profits income is generally affected by three major factors:



| |  |  | oil and gas sales volumes,
| | - |  | --------------------------

| |  |  | oil and gas sales prices, and
| | - |  | -----------------------------

| |  |  | costs deducted in the calculation of net profits income.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------

Volumes

From 2013 to 2014, underlying gas sales volumes decreased 7% and underlying oil sales volumes decreased 6% primarily due to natural production decline.
From 2012 to 2013, underlying gas sales volumes decreased 8% primarily due to natural production decline. Underlying oil sales volumes decreased 5% primarily due to natural production decline, partially offset by the timing of cash receipts.

The estimated rate of natural production decline on the underlying oil and gas properties is approximately 6% to 8% a year.

Prices

Gas.    The 2014
average gas price was $4.60 per Mcf, a 14% increase from the 2013 average gas price of $4.03 per Mcf, which was a 23% increase from the 2012 average gas price of $3.28 per Mcf. Natural gas prices are affected by the level of North American
production, weather, crude oil and natural gas liquids prices, the U.S. economy, storage levels and import levels of liquefied natural gas. Natural gas prices are expected to remain volatile. The average NYMEX price for November 2014 through January
2015 was $3.73 per MMBtu. At February 18, 2015, the average NYMEX gas price for the following 12 months was $3.05 per MMBtu.

Oil.    The average oil price for 2014 was $95.35 per Bbl, relatively flat from the average oil price for 2013 of $95.25 per
Bbl, which was 4% higher than the average oil price for 2012 of $91.30 per Bbl. Oil prices are expected to remain volatile. The average NYMEX price for November 2014 through January 2015 was $60.89 per Bbl. At February 18, 2015, the average
NYMEX oil price for the following 12 months was $57.14 per Bbl.

Costs

The calculation of net profits income includes deductions for production expense, development costs and overhead since the related underlying properties
are working interests. If monthly costs exceed revenues for any state, these excess costs must be recovered, with accrued interest, from future net proceeds of that state and cannot reduce net profits income from another state. See Excess
costs below.

Taxes, transportation and other.    Taxes, transportation and other generally fluctuates with changes
in total revenues. Taxes, transportation and other decreased 2% from 2013 to 2014 primarily because of decreased property taxes related to lower valuations and decreased oil production taxes related to lower oil revenues, partially offset by
increased gas production taxes related to higher gas revenues. Taxes, transportation and other decreased 2% from 2012 to 2013 primarily because of decreased property taxes related to decreased valuations, partially offset by increased gas production
taxes related to higher gas revenues.

Production expense.    Production expense remained relatively flat from 2013 to
2014 primarily because increased repairs and maintenance, labor and field costs were offset by decreased compressor rental and chemical costs. Production expense decreased 4% from 2012 to 2013 primarily because of decreased repairs and maintenance,
compressor and outside operated costs, partially offset by increased labor and field costs.

Development
costs.Development costs deducted were $5.3 million in 2014, $6.5 million in 2013 and $6.0 million in 2012. In 2014, actual development costs were $4.6 million. At December 31, 2014, cumulative budgeted costs deducted
exceeded cumulative actual costs by approximately $1.2 million. The monthly development cost deduction was $500,000 from the January 2012 through the July 2013 distribution. As a result of increased development activity, the monthly development cost
deduction was increased from $500,000 to $600,000 beginning with the August 2013 distribution and it was maintained at this level through the February 2014 distribution. Due to lower than anticipated actual costs as a result of the timing of cash
expenditures, the development cost deduction was decreased to $500,000 beginning with the March 2014 distribution and to $400,000 beginning with the June 2014 distribution and was maintained at that level through the November 2014 distribution. Due
to lower than anticipated actual costs as a result of reduced activity and revisions to the 2014 development budget, the development cost deduction was decreased to $200,000 beginning with the December 2014 distribution. The monthly deduction is
based on the current level of development expenditures, budgeted future development costs and the cumulative actual costs under (over) previous deductions. XTO Energy has advised the trustee that this monthly deduction will continue to be evaluated
and revised as necessary. For further information on 2015 budgeted development costs, see Properties, under Item 2.

Overhead.    Overhead is charged by XTO Energy for administrative expenses incurred to support operations of the underlying
properties. Overhead fluctuates based on changes in the active well count and drilling activity on the underlying properties, as well as an annual cost level adjustment.

Excess costs.XTO advised the trustee that decreased underlying gas volumes related to a prior period adjustment caused
costs to exceed revenues by $123,577 ($98,862 net to the trust) on properties underlying the Kansas net profits interests in November 2014. However, these excess costs did not reduce net proceeds from the remaining conveyances. XTO advised the
trustee that increased gas production led to the partial recovery of excess costs, plus accrued interest, of $40,694 ($32,555 net to the trust) in December 2014. Remaining excess costs totaled $82,883 ($66,306 net to the trust) for the period ended
December 31, 2014.

XTO advised the trustee in September 2012 that it deducted $35,601,400 ($28,481,120 net to the trust) related to the
Fankhouser settlement. The settlement deduction caused costs to exceed revenues by $27,235,464 ($21,788,371 net to the trust) on properties underlying the Oklahoma net profits interests and by $6,225,126 ($4,980,101 net to the trust) on
properties underlying the Kansas net profits interests. However, these excess costs did not reduce net proceeds from the remaining conveyance. XTO advised the trustee in October 2012 that it partially recovered $3,342,186 ($2,673,749 net to the
trust) of excess costs. The excess costs claimed underlying the Kansas and Oklahoma net profits interests above were the subject of an arbitration ruling issued in April 2014. As a result of the arbitration ruling, XTO Energy was prohibited from
charging any portion of the Fankhouser settlement to the trust. Therefore, the May 2014 distribution included a refund for the amounts withheld from the September and October 2012 distributions. For additional information see Note 8 to
Financial Statements under Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

##### Table of Contents

Costs exceeded revenues by $114,245 ($91,396 net to the trust) on properties underlying the Wyoming net
profits interests in July 2012. Lower gas prices and increased production expenses related to the timing of cash disbursements caused costs to exceed revenues on properties underlying the Wyoming net profits interests. However, these excess costs
did not reduce net proceeds from the remaining conveyances. XTO advised the trustee that increased gas prices and decreased production expenses led to the full recovery of excess costs, plus accrued interest of $314 ($251 net to the trust) in August
2012.

Legal Expense.As a result of the arbitration ruling, legal expense for 2014 included reimbursement of
$5,482,995 ($4,386,396 net to the trust) for the amounts withheld from trust proceeds in September and October 2012. For additional information see Note 8 to Financial Statements under Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

Fourth Quarter 2014 and 2013

During fourth quarter 2014
the trust received net profits income totaling $8,347,594 compared with fourth quarter 2013 net profits income of $9,228,643. This 10% decrease in net profits income was primarily due to decreased oil and gas production ($1.5 million) and lower oil
prices ($0.5 million), partially offset by lower development costs ($0.6 million) and higher gas prices ($0.6 million).

Administration expense was
$177,007 and interest income was $93, resulting in fourth quarter 2014 distributable income of $8,170,680 or $0.204267 per unit. Distributable income for fourth quarter 2013 was $7,428,920 or $0.185723 per unit.

Distributions to unitholders for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 were:

Volumes

Fourth
quarter underlying gas sales volumes decreased 6% and underlying oil sales volumes decreased 14% from 2013 to 2014. Gas sales volumes decreased primarily due to natural production decline. Oil sales volumes decreased primarily due to natural
production decline and the timing of cash receipts.

Prices

The average fourth quarter 2014 gas price was $4.13 per Mcf, or 4% higher than the fourth quarter 2013 average price of $3.97 per Mcf. The average fourth
quarter 2014 oil price was $89.45 per Bbl, or 13% lower than the fourth quarter 2013 average price of $102.44 per Bbl. For further information about product prices, see Years Ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012  Prices
above.

Costs

Taxes, transportation and
other.    Taxes, transportation and other decreased 6% from fourth quarter 2013 to 2014 primarily because of decreased oil production taxes related to lower oil revenues and decreased property taxes related to decreased
valuations.

Production expense.    Fourth quarter production expense increased 4% from 2013 to 2014 primarily because of
increased labor and repairs and maintenance costs, partially offset by decreased compressor rental costs.

Development
costs.    Development costs, which were deducted based on budgeted development costs, decreased 44% from fourth quarter 2013 to 2014. For further information about development costs, see Years Ended December 31,
2014, 2013 and 2012  Development Costs above.

Overhead.    Overhead is charged by XTO Energy for administrative expenses
incurred to support operations of the underlying properties. Overhead fluctuates based on changes in the active well count and drilling activity on the underlying properties, as well as an annual cost level adjustment.

Excess costs.XTO advised the trustee that decreased underlying gas volumes related to a prior period adjustment caused
costs to exceed revenues by $123,577 ($98,862 net to the trust) on properties underlying the Kansas net profits interests in November 2014. However, these excess costs did not reduce net proceeds from the remaining conveyances. XTO advised the
trustee that increased gas production led to the partial recovery of excess costs, plus accrued interest, of $40,694 ($32,555 net to the trust) in December 2014. Remaining excess costs totaled $82,883 ($66,306 net to the trust) for the period ended
December 31, 2014.

Other

In accordance with the
terms of the Hugoton Royalty Trust Indenture, XTO Energy advised the trustee that on April 24, 2013 it sold properties underlying the Oklahoma net profits interests for $1,188,430 ($950,744 net to the trust). This amount was included in the May
2013 distribution.

The trust is required to join in a sale of up to 1% of the value of the net profits interests in any calendar year, pursuant to
notice from XTO Energy of its desire to sell the related underlying properties.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The trusts only cash requirement is the monthly distribution of its income to unitholders, which is funded by the monthly receipt of net profits
income after payment of trust administration expenses. The trust is not liable for any production costs or liabilities attributable to the net profits interests. If at any time the trust receives net profits income in excess of the amount due, the
trust is not obligated to return such overpayment, but future net profits income payable to the trust will be reduced by the overpayment, plus interest at the prime rate. The trust may borrow funds required to pay trust liabilities if fully repaid
prior to further distributions to unitholders.

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.

Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Climate
Change Regulation

There is an increased focus by local, national and international regulatory bodies on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and
climate change. Several states have adopted climate change legislation and regulations, and various other regulatory bodies have announced their intent to regulate GHG emissions or adopt climate change regulations. As these regulations are under
development, XTO Energy is unable to predict the total impact of the potential regulations upon the operators of the underlying properties, and it is possible that the operators of the underlying properties could face increases in operating costs in
order to comply with climate change or GHG emissions legislation, which costs could reduce net proceeds payable to the trust and trust distributions.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The trust has no off-balance
sheet financing 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.

Related Party Transactions

The underlying properties from which the net profits interests were carved are currently owned by XTO Energy, which operates approximately 95% of the
underlying properties. In computing net proceeds, XTO Energy deducts a monthly overhead charge for reimbursement of administrative expenses on the underlying properties it operates. As of December 31, 2014, the monthly overhead charge, based on
the number of operated wells, was approximately $1,022,000 ($817,600 net to the trust) and is subject to annual adjustment based on an oil and gas industry index.

XTO Energy sells a significant portion of natural gas production from the underlying properties to certain of XTO Energys wholly owned
subsidiaries under contracts in existence when the trust was created, generally at amounts approximating monthly published market prices. For further information regarding natural gas sales from the underlying properties to affiliates of XTO Energy,
see Significant Properties, under Item 2, Properties and Note 7 to Financial Statements under Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data. Total gas sales from the underlying properties to XTO Energys wholly owned
subsidiaries were $30.4 million for 2014, or 38% of total gas sales, $29.0 million for 2013, or 38% of total gas sales and $22.3 million for 2012, or 34% of total gas sales.

On June 25, 2010, XTO Energy became a wholly owned subsidiary of Exxon Mobil Corporation.

Critical Accounting Policies

The financial statements of the
trust are significantly affected by its basis of accounting and estimates related to its oil and gas properties and proved reserves, as summarized below.

Basis of Accounting

The trusts
financial statements are prepared on a modified cash basis, which is a comprehensive basis of accounting other than U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. This method of accounting is consistent with reporting of taxable income to trust
unitholders. The most significant differences between the trusts financial statements and those prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles are:



| |  |  | Net profits income is recognized in the month received rather than accrued in the month of production.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Expenses are recognized when paid rather than when incurred.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Cash reserves may be established by the trustee for certain contingencies that would not be recorded under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This comprehensive basis of accounting other than U.S. generally accepted accounting principles corresponds to the accounting permitted for royalty
trusts by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, as specified by Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 12:E, Financial Statements of Royalty Trusts. For further information regarding the trusts basis of accounting, see Note 2 to Financial
Statements under Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

All amounts included in the trusts financial statements are based
on cash amounts received or disbursed, or on the carrying value of the net profits interests, which was derived from the historical cost of the interests at the date of their transfer from XTO Energy, less accumulated amortization to date.
Accordingly, there are no fair value estimates included in the financial statements based on either exchange or nonexchange trade values.

Oil and Gas Reserves

The proved oil and gas reserves for the underlying properties are estimated by independent petroleum engineers. The estimated reserves for the underlying
properties are then used by XTO Energy to calculate the estimated oil and gas reserves attributable to the net profits interests. Reserve engineering is a subjective process that is dependent upon the quality of available data and the interpretation
thereof. Estimates by different engineers often vary, sometimes significantly. In addition, physical factors such as the results of drilling, testing and production subsequent to the date of an estimate, as well as economic factors such as changes
in product prices, may justify revision of such estimates. Because proved reserves are required to be estimated using 12-month average prices, based on the first-day-of-the-month price for each month in the period, estimated reserve quantities can
be significantly impacted by changes in product prices. Accordingly, oil and gas quantities ultimately recovered and the timing of production may be substantially different from original estimates.

The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows and changes in such cash flows, as reported in Note 9 to Financial Statements under
Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, is prepared using assumptions required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board and the Securities and Exchange Commission. Such assumptions include using
12-month average oil and gas prices, based on the first-day-of-the-month price for each month in the period, and year end costs for estimated future development and production expenditures. Discounted future
net cash flows are calculated using a 10% rate. Changes in any of these assumptions, including consideration of other factors, could have a significant impact on the standardized measure. Accordingly, the standardized measure does not represent XTO
Energys or the trustees estimated current market value of proved reserves.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain information included in this annual report and other materials filed, or to be filed, by the trust with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(as well as information included in oral statements or other written statements made or to be made by XTO Energy or the trustee) contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, and Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, relating to the trust, operations of the underlying properties and the oil and gas industry. Such forward-looking statements may concern, among other things,
reserve-to-production ratios, future production, development activities, future development plans by area, increased density drilling, maintenance projects, development, production and other costs, oil and gas prices, pricing differentials, proved
reserves, future net cash flows, production levels, litigation, regulatory matters, competition, and the satisfaction or waiver of conditions to the trustees resignation. Such forward-looking statements are based on XTO Energys current
plans, expectations, assumptions, projections and estimates and are identified by words such as expects, intends, plans, projects, anticipates, predicts, believes,
goals, estimates, should, could, and similar words that convey the uncertainty of future events. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and
assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual results may differ materially from expectations, estimates or assumptions expressed in, implied in, or forecasted in such forward-looking statements. Some of the risk factors that could
cause actual results to differ materially are explained in Item 1A, Risk Factors.

Item 7A.Quantitative and
Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The only assets of and sources of income to the trust are the net profits interests, which
generally entitle the trust to receive a share of the net profits from oil and gas production from the underlying properties. Consequently, the trust is exposed to market risk from fluctuations in oil and gas prices. The trust is a passive entity
and, other than the trusts ability to periodically borrow money as necessary to pay expenses, liabilities and obligations of the trust that cannot be paid out of cash held by the trust, the trust is prohibited from engaging in borrowing
transactions. The amount of any such borrowings is unlikely to be material to the trust. In addition, the trustee is prohibited by the trust indenture from engaging in any business activity or causing the trust to enter into any investments other
than investing cash on hand in specific short-term cash investments. Therefore, the trust cannot hold any derivative financial instruments. As a result of the limited nature of its borrowing and investing activities, the trust is not subject to any
material interest rate market risk. Additionally, any gains or losses from any hedging activities conducted by XTO Energy are specifically excluded from the calculation of net proceeds due the trust under the forms of the conveyances. The trust does
not engage in transactions in foreign currencies which could expose the trust to any foreign currency related market risk.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Unitholders of Hugoton Royalty Trust and

Southwest Bank, Trustee

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets, liabilities and trust corpus of Hugoton Royalty Trust (the Trust) as of
December 31, 2014 and 2013, 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. We also have audited the Trusts internal control over
financial reporting as of December 31, 2014, based on criteria established in Internal Control  Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Trustee is
responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the Trustees Report on
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A. Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements and on the Trusts internal control over financial reporting based on our integrated 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 audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our
audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by the trustee, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and
testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits
provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

As described in Note 2, these financial statements were prepared on the modified cash basis of
accounting, which is a comprehensive basis of accounting other than accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

A
trust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 trusts internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect
the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the trust; (ii) 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 trust are being made only in accordance with authorizations of the trustee; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use,
or disposition of the trust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 financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the assets, liabilities and trust corpus of the Trust at December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the distributable income and 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 2. Also 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 Internal Control  Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.

HUGOTON ROYALTY TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Trust Organization and Provisions

Hugoton Royalty Trust was created on December 1, 1998 by XTO Energy Inc. (formerly known as Cross Timbers Oil
Company). Effective on that date, XTO Energy conveyed 80% net profits interests in certain predominantly gas-producing working interest properties in Kansas, Oklahoma and Wyoming to the trust under separate conveyances for each of the three
states. In exchange for the conveyances of the net profits interests to the trust, XTO Energy received 40 million units of beneficial interest in the trust. The trusts initial public offering was in April 1999. The majority of the
underlying working interest properties are currently owned and operated by XTO Energy (Note 7).

Southwest Bank is the trustee for the trust. The
trust indenture provides, among other provisions, that:



| |  |  | the trust cannot engage in any business activity or acquire any assets other than the net profits interests and specific short-term cash investments;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the trust may dispose of all or part of the net profits interests if approved by a vote of holders of 80% or more of the outstanding trust units, or upon trust termination. Otherwise, the trust is required to sell up to
1% of the value of the net profits interests in any calendar year, pursuant to notice from XTO Energy of its desire to sell the related underlying properties. Any sale must be for cash with 80% of the proceeds distributed to the unitholders on the
next declared distribution;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the trustee may establish a cash reserve for payment of any liability that is contingent or not currently payable;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the trustee may borrow funds to pay trust liabilities if repaid in full prior to further distributions to unitholders;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the trustee will make monthly cash distributions to unitholders (Note 3); and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the trust will terminate upon the first occurrence of:
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | disposition of all net profits interests pursuant to terms of the trust indenture,
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | gross proceeds from the underlying properties falling below $1 million per year for two successive years, or
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a vote of holders of 80% or more of the outstanding trust units to terminate the trust in accordance with provisions of the trust indenture.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

U.S. Trust, Bank of America Private Wealth Management, a division of Bank of America, N.A., as trustee of the Hugoton Royalty Trust, announced that at
the special meeting of the trusts unitholders held on May 23, 2014, the unitholders of the trust voted to approve the proposal to appoint Southwest Bank as successor trustee of the trust effective May 30, 2014. References to the
trustee for periods prior to May 30, 2014 shall mean Bank of America, N.A., and for periods on or after May 30, 2014 shall mean Southwest Bank.

2. Basis of Accounting

The financial statements of the trust are prepared on the following basis and are not intended to present financial position and
results of operations in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles:



| |  |  | Net profits income is recorded in the month received by the trustee (Note 3).
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Trust expenses are recorded based on liabilities paid and cash reserves established by the trustee for liabilities and contingencies.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Distributions to unitholders are recorded when declared by the trustee (Note 3).
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The trustee routinely reviews the trusts net profits interests in oil and gas properties for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If an impairment event occurs and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



32

##### Table of Contents

HUGOTON ROYALTY TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)



| | it is determined that the carrying value of the trusts net profits interests may not be recoverable, an impairment will be recognized as measured by the amount by which the carrying amount
of the net profits interests exceeds the fair value of these assets, which would likely be measured by discounting projected cash flows. There is no impairment of the assets as of December 31, 2014.
| | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The most significant differences between the trusts financial statements and those prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles are:



| |  |  | Net profits income is recognized in the month received rather than accrued in the month of production.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Expenses are recognized when paid rather than when incurred.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Cash reserves may be established by the trustee for contingencies that would not be recorded under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This comprehensive basis of accounting corresponds to the accounting permitted for royalty trusts by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, as
specified by Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 12:E, Financial Statements of Royalty Trusts.

Most accounting pronouncements apply to entities whose
financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, directing such entities to accrue or defer revenues and expenses in a period other than when such revenues were received or expenses were paid.
Because the trusts financial statements are prepared on the modified cash basis, as described above, most accounting pronouncements are not applicable to the trusts financial statements.

The initial carrying value of the net profits interests of $247,066,951 was XTO Energys historical net book value of the interests on
December 1, 1998, the date of the transfer to the trust. Amortization of the net profits interests is calculated on a unit-of-production basis and charged directly
to trust corpus. Accumulated amortization was $157,470,123 as of December 31, 2014 and $148,212,393 as of December 31, 2013.

3. Distributions to Unitholders

The trustee determines the amount to be distributed to unitholders each month by totaling net profits income, interest income and
other cash receipts, and subtracting liabilities paid and adjustments in cash reserves established by the trustee. The resulting amount is distributed to unitholders of record within ten business days after the monthly record date, which is the last
business day of the month.

Net profits income received by the trustee consists of net proceeds received in the prior month by XTO Energy from the
underlying properties, multiplied by 80%. Net proceeds are the gross proceeds received from the sale of production, less costs. Costs generally include applicable taxes, transportation, legal and marketing charges, production expense, development
and drilling costs, and overhead (Note 7).

XTO Energy, as owner of the underlying properties, computes net profits income separately for each of
the three conveyances (one for each of the states of Kansas, Oklahoma and Wyoming). If costs exceed revenues for any conveyance, such excess costs must be recovered, with accrued interest, from future net proceeds of that conveyance and cannot
reduce net profits income from the other conveyances (Note 4).

4. Excess Costs

XTO advised the trustee that decreased underlying gas volumes related to a prior period adjustment caused costs to exceed revenues by
$123,577 ($98,862 net to the trust) on properties underlying the Kansas net profits interests in November 2014. However, these excess costs did not reduce net proceeds from the remaining conveyances. XTO advised the trustee that increased

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)



gas production led to the partial recovery of excess costs, plus accrued interest, of $40,694 ($32,555 net to the trust) in December 2014. Remaining excess costs totaled $82,883 ($66,306 net to
the trust) for the period ended December 31, 2014.

XTO advised the trustee in September 2012 that it deducted $35,601,400 ($28,481,120 net to
the trust) related to the Fankhouser settlement. The settlement deduction caused costs to exceed revenues by $27,235,464 ($21,788,371 net to the trust) on properties underlying the Oklahoma net profits interests and by $6,225,126 ($4,980,101
net to the trust) on properties underlying the Kansas net profits interests. However, these excess costs did not reduce net proceeds from the remaining conveyance. XTO advised the trustee in October 2012 that it partially recovered $3,342,186
($2,673,749 net to the trust) of excess costs. The excess costs claimed underlying the Kansas and Oklahoma net profits interests above were the subject of an arbitration ruling issued in April 2014. As a result of the arbitration ruling, XTO Energy
was prohibited from charging any portion of the Fankhouser settlement to the trust. Therefore, the May 2014 distribution included a refund for the amounts withheld from the September and October 2012 distributions. For additional information
see Note 8.

Costs exceeded revenues by $114,245 ($91,396 net to the trust) on properties underlying the Wyoming net profits interests in July 2012.
Lower gas prices and increased production expenses related to the timing of cash disbursements caused costs to exceed revenues on properties underlying the Wyoming net profits interests. However, these excess costs did not reduce net proceeds from
the remaining conveyances. XTO advised the trustee that increased gas prices and decreased production expenses led to the full recovery of excess costs, plus accrued interest of $314 ($251 net to the trust) in August 2012.

5. Development Costs

The following summarizes actual development costs, budgeted development costs deducted in the calculation of net profits income, and
the cumulative actual costs compared to the amount deducted:



|                                                                               |  |                        |            |   |      |   |            |      |  |   |            |

|                                                                               |  | 2014                   |            |   | 2013 |   |            | 2012 | 
|Cumulative actual costs under (over) the amount deducted  beginning of period |  | $                      | 588,742    |   |      | $ | (301,922   | )    |  | $ | 2,396,920  |  
|Actual costs                                                                   |  |                        | (4,645,744 | ) |      |   | (5,609,336 | )    |  |   | (8,698,842 | )

|                                                                               |  |                        |            |   |      |   |            |      |  |   |            |  
|Cumulative actual costs under (over) the amount deducted  end of period       |  | $                      | 1,242,998  |   |      | $ | 588,742    |      |  | $ | (301,922   | )

The monthly development cost deduction was $500,000 from the January 2012 through the July 2013 distribution. As a
result of increased development activity, the monthly development cost deduction was increased from $500,000 to $600,000 beginning with the August 2013 distribution and it was maintained at this level through the February 2014 distribution. Due to
lower than anticipated actual costs as a result of the timing of cash expenditures, the development cost deduction was decreased to $500,000 beginning with the March 2014 distribution and to $400,000 beginning with the June 2014 distribution and was
maintained at that level through the November 2014 distribution. Due to lower than anticipated actual costs as a result of reduced activity and revisions to the 2014 development budget, the development cost deduction was decreased to $200,000
beginning with the December 2014 distribution. The monthly deduction is based on the current level of development expenditures, budgeted future development costs and the cumulative actual costs under (over) previous deductions. XTO Energy has
advised the trustee that this monthly deduction will continue to be evaluated and revised as necessary. For further information on 2015 budgeted development costs, see Properties, under Item 2.

6. Income Taxes

For federal income tax purposes, the trust constitutes a fixed investment trust that is taxed as a grantor trust. A grantor trust is
not subject to tax at the trust level. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been made in the financial statements. The unitholders are considered to own the trusts income and principal as though no trust were in existence. The income
of the trust is deemed to have been received or accrued by each unitholder at the time such income is received or accrued by the trust and not when distributed by the trust.

All revenues from the trust are from sources within Kansas, Oklahoma or Wyoming. Because it distributes all of its net income to unitholders, the trust
has not been taxed at the trust level in Kansas or Oklahoma. While the trust has not owed tax, the trustee is required to file a return with Kansas and Oklahoma reflecting the income and deductions of the trust attributable to properties located in
each state, along with a schedule that includes information regarding distributions to unitholders.

Wyoming does not have a state income tax.

Each unitholder should consult his or her own tax advisor regarding income tax requirements, if any, applicable to such persons ownership of trust
units.

7. XTO Energy Inc.

XTO Energy operates approximately 95% of the underlying properties. In computing net proceeds, XTO Energy deducts an overhead charge
for reimbursement of administrative expenses on the underlying properties it operates. As of December 31, 2014, the overhead charge was approximately $1,022,000 ($817,600 net to the trust) per month and is subject to annual adjustment based on
an oil and gas industry index as defined in the trust agreement.

XTO Energy sells a significant portion of natural gas production from the
underlying properties to certain of XTO Energys wholly owned subsidiaries under contracts in existence when the trust was created, generally at amounts approximating monthly published market prices. Prior to May 1, 2014, most of the
production from the Hugoton area was sold under a contract to Timberland Gathering & Processing Company, Inc. (TGPC) based on the index price. Effective May 1, 2014, XTO Energy has a gas purchase contract in place with DCP
Midstream, L.P. TGPC will provide gathering from the wellhead to DCPs gathering system for approximately $0.75 per Mcf. Much of the gas production in Major County, Oklahoma is sold to Ringwood Gathering Company (RGC), which retains
approximately $0.31 per Mcf as a compression and gathering fee. TGPC and RGC sell gas to Cross Timbers Energy Services, Inc. (CTES), which markets gas to third parties. XTO Energy sells directly to CTES most gas production not sold
directly to TGPC or RGC.

Total gas sales from the underlying properties to XTO Energys wholly owned subsidiaries were $30.4 million for 2014,
or 38% of total gas sales, $29.0 million for 2013, or 38% of total gas sales and, $22.3 million for 2012, or 34% of total gas sales.

On
June 25, 2010, XTO Energy became a wholly owned subsidiary of Exxon Mobil Corporation.

8. Contingencies

Litigation

XTO Energy settled the
Fankhouser v. XTO Energy, Inc. royalty class action lawsuit for $37 million. The settlement was given final approval by the court on October 10, 2012. XTO Energy advised the trustee that $1.4 million of the settlement was attributable to
Kansas claims which predated the trust. The settlement also included a new royalty calculation for future royalty payments.

XTO Energy and the
trustee arbitrated the issue of whether the Fankhousersettlement could be charged to the trust net proceeds ($28.5 million; $23.4 million and $5.1 million affecting the net proceeds from Oklahoma and Kansas, respectively, in

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)



addition to a reduction in the net profits going forward). The three panel tribunal issued a decision on April 21, 2014. Based on that ruling, XTO Energy is prohibited from charging any
portion of the Fankhouser settlement (including the new royalty calculation for future royalty payments) to the trust, now or in the future. Additionally, XTO Energy had to reimburse $4,386,396 which represents amounts withheld from the September
and October 2012 distributions and $1,985,438 which represents attorney fees, arbitration expenses and interest.

The trust filed Southwest Bank,
as Successor Trustee to Bank of America, N.A., as Trustee for the Hugoton Royalty Trust v. XTO Energy, Inc., no. 017-274777-14 in the 17th state district court of Tarrant County, Texas, seeking judicial confirmation of the April 21,
2014 arbitration award. The arbitration award was entered into as a final judgment on December 12, 2014.

In September 2008, a royalty class
action lawsuit was filed against XTO Energy styled Wallace B. Roderick Revocable Living Trust, et al. v. XTO Energy Inc. in the District Court of Kearny County, Kansas. The case was removed to federal court in Wichita, Kansas. The plaintiffs
allege that XTO Energy has improperly taken post production costs from royalties paid to the plaintiffs from wells located in Kansas, Oklahoma, and Colorado; later reduced to Kansas. The case was certified as a class action in March 2012. XTO Energy
filed an appeal of the class certification to the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals on April 11, 2012 which was granted on June 26, 2012. The court reversed the certification of the class and remanded the case back to the trial court for
further proceedings. In its pleadings, the plaintiff has alleged damages in excess of $42.5 million.

In December 2010, a royalty class action
lawsuit was filed against XTO Energy styled Chieftain Royalty Company v. XTO Energy Inc. in Coal County District Court, Oklahoma. XTO Energy removed the case to federal court in the Eastern District of Oklahoma. The plaintiffs allege that XTO
Energy wrongfully deducted fees from royalty payments on Oklahoma wells, failed to make diligent efforts to secure the best terms available for the sale of gas and its constituents, and demand an accounting to determine whether they have been fully
and fairly paid gas royalty interests. The case was certified as a class action in April 2012. XTO Energy filed an appeal of the class certification to the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals on April 26, 2012 which was granted on June 26, 2012.
The court reversed the certification of the class and remanded the case back to the trial court for further proceedings.

XTO Energy has informed
the trustee that it believes that XTO Energy has strong defenses to these lawsuits and intends to vigorously defend its position. However, XTO Energy has informed the Trustee that it is cognizant of other, similar litigation, such as
Fankhouser, and other, unrelated entities. As these cases develop, XTO Energy will assess its legal position accordingly. If XTO Energy ultimately makes any settlement payments or receives a judgment against it in Chieftain or
Roderick, XTO Energy has advised the trustee that it believes that the terms of the conveyances covering the trusts net profits interests require the trust to bear its 80% share of such settlement or judgment related to production from
the underlying properties. Additionally, if the judgment or settlement increases the amount of future payments to royalty owners, XTO Energy has informed the trustee that the trust would bear its proportionate share of the increased payments through
reduced net proceeds. In the event of any such settlement or judgment, the trustee intends to review any claimed reductions in payment to the trust based on the facts and circumstances of such settlement or judgment. In light of the arbitration
tribunals decision on the treatment of the Fankhousersettlement, to the extent that the claims in Chieftain or Roderick are similar to those in Fankhouser,the trustee would likely object to such claimed
reductions. XTO Energy has informed the trustee that, although the amount of any reduction in net proceeds is not presently determinable, in its managements opinion, the amount is not currently expected to be material to the trusts
financial position or liquidity though it could be material to the trusts annual distributable income. Additionally, XTO Energy has advised the trustee that any reductions would result in costs exceeding revenues on the properties underlying
the net profit interests of the cases named above, as applicable, for several monthly distributions, depending on the size of the judgment or settlement, if any, and the net proceeds being paid at that time, which would result in the net profits
interest being limited until such time that the revenues exceed the costs for those net profit interests. If there is a settlement or judgment and should XTO Energy and the trustee disagree concerning the amount of the settlement or judgment to be
charged, if any, against the trusts net profits interests, the matter will be resolved by binding arbitration through the American Arbitration Association under the terms of the Indenture creating the trust.

HUGOTON ROYALTY TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)



On September 12, 2012, a lawsuit was filed against Bank of America as trustee and XTO Energy
styled Harold Lamb v. Bank of America and XTO Energy Inc., in the U.S. District Court  Western District of Oklahoma. The plaintiff, Harold Lamb, is a unitholder in the trust and alleged that XTO Energy failed to properly pay and account
to the trust under the terms of the net overriding royalty conveyances on certain Kansas and Oklahoma properties and that Bank of America, N.A., as the previous trustee, failed to properly oversee such payment and accounting by XTO Energy.
Additionally, the plaintiff alleged that Bank of America, N.A. and XTO Energy breached a fiduciary duty to the trust based on the allegations found in the Fankhouser class action discussed above. The plaintiff sought unspecified amounts for
actual/compensatory damages, punitive damages, disgorgement and injunctive relief. Sandra Goebel, another unitholder of the trust, filed a Motion to Intervene in Lambs lawsuit and to stay the action in favor of her lawsuit pending in the
Dallas County District Court (see discussion below) or, in the alternative, for the court to appoint her attorneys lead counsel in Lambs lawsuit. On September 5, 2014, Goebel withdrew her Motion to Intervene. That same day, Lamb filed a
Motion to Voluntarily Dismiss his claims. On September 29, 2014, the Lamb case was dismissed without prejudice to refile in state court. Lambs counsel has been added as counsel of record for Goebel.

On August 12, 2013, a demand for arbitration styled Sandra G. Goebel vs. XTO Energy, Inc., Timberland Gathering & Processing Company,
Inc. and Bank of America, N.A.was filed with the American Arbitration Association (AAA). The claimant, Sandra Goebel, is a unitholder in the trust and alleged that XTO Energy breached the conveyances by misappropriating funds from
the trust by failing to modify its existing sales contracts with its affiliate Timberland Gathering & Processing Company, Inc. (Timberland). Goebel alleged that these contracts did not currently reflect market rate
terms, and that XTO had a duty to renegotiate the contracts to obtain more favorable terms. The claimant further alleged that Bank of America, N.A. (the previous trustee) breached its fiduciary duty by acquiescing to and facilitating XTO
Energys alleged self-dealing and concealing information from unitholders that would have revealed XTO Energys breaches. The claim also alleged aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duty by XTO Energy, and disgorgement and unjust
enrichment by Timberland. The claimant sought from the respondents damages of an estimated $59.6 million for alleged royalty underpayments, exemplary damages, an accounting by XTO Energy, a declaration, costs, reasonable attorneys fees, and
pre-judgment and post-judgment interest. Goebel purported to sue on behalf of and for the benefit of the Hugoton Royalty Trust. Bank of America, N.A. filed a response to the arbitration demand denying any liability arising out of the claimants
allegations and objecting to the arbitrability of Goebels claims against Bank of America, N.A. The arbitration panel ruled that Goebels claims are not arbitrable and dismissed the claims in their entirety without prejudice. Goebel has
refiled the matter as a lawsuit styled Sandra G. Goebel vs. XTO Energy, Inc., Timberland Gathering and Processing Company, Inc. and Bank of America, N.A. in Dallas County District Court. The allegations are the same as those contained in the
previous arbitration demand. Defendants answered with general denials and additionally filed pleas to the jurisdiction, special exceptions, and a plea in abatement challenging, among other things, Goebels putative authority to bring claims on
behalf of the trust over the trustees objection. The Defendants also filed a joint motion to stay the Goebel case in favor of the first filed Lamb case discussed above. The court denied Defendants pleas to the jurisdiction
and special exceptions, although it did not rule on the plea in abatement. Simultaneously, the judge conditionally stayed the case pending a ruling on Goebels Motion to Intervene in the Lamb case. On September 5, 2014, however,
Goebel withdrew her Motion to Intervene. That same day, Lamb filed a Motion to Voluntarily Dismiss his federal district court lawsuit (see discussion above). Goebel filed a motion to lift the stay in the state district court; while XTO Energy,
Timberland and Bank of America (individually and now as former trustee) filed a motion to stay the case pending a mandamus appeal of the district courts denial of their pleas to the jurisdiction and special exceptions. On October 30,
2014, the district court granted Plaintiffs motion to lift stay. On October 31, 2014, the district court denied Defendants motion to stay pending mandamus. On November 7, 2014, the Defendants filed their petition for writ of
mandamus with the Dallas Court of Appeals. Defendants also filed a motion seeking a stay from the court of appeals, along with the petition for writ of mandamus. On November 13, 2014, the court of appeals granted Defendants motion and
stayed the lawsuit, including all associated discovery, until the court opines on the petition for writ of mandamus. Goebel filed a response to the petition for the writ of mandamus on December 16, 2014 and the Defendants replied on
January 13, 2015. Accordingly, the petition has been fully briefed and is awaiting a decision from the court of appeals. Southwest Bank, the current trustee, has not yet been named a party in the case. The trustee will vigorously defend any
claims that may be asserted against it. XTO Energy has informed the trustee that it believes that XTO Energy and Timberland have strong defenses to this lawsuit and intend to vigorously defend their positions. Bank of America has informed the
trustee that it believes it has strong defenses to the

lawsuit and will vigorously defend its position. The terms of the trust indenture provide that Bank of America and/or the trustee shall be indemnified by the trust and shall have no liability,
other than for fraud, gross negligence or acts or omissions in bad faith as adjudicated by final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

The trustee anticipates that the trust will incur additional legal and other expenses in connection with the Goebellawsuit. As a result, the
trustee reserved an additional $1.6 million from trust distributions for the Goebel litigation, beginning with the September 2013 distribution. The September 2013 through December 2013 distributions each reflected a deduction of $400,000 in
connection with such reserve. Additionally, the trustee previously reserved an additional $1.6 million from trust distributions for the Lamb litigation but that is now a part of the reserve for the Goebellawsuit. The January 2014
through April 2014 distributions each reflected a deduction of $400,000 in connection with such reserve. As the Goebel lawsuit progresses, the trustee may need to revise the reserve.

Certain of the underlying properties are involved in various other lawsuits and governmental proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. XTO
Energy has advised the trustee that it does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these claims will have a material effect on the financial position or liquidity of the trust, but may have an effect on annual distributable income.

requiring state income tax withholding from nonresident recipients of oil and gas proceeds. After consultation with its tax counsel, the trustee believes that it is not required to withhold on payments made to the unitholders. However, regulations
are subject to change by the various states, which could change this conclusion. Should amounts be withheld on payments made to the trust or the unitholders, distributions to the unitholders would be reduced by the required amount, subject to the
filing of a claim for refund by the trust or unitholders for such amount.

9. Supplemental Oil and Gas Reserve Information (Unaudited)

Oil and Natural Gas Reserves

Proved
oil and gas reserves have been estimated by independent petroleum engineers. Proved reserves are those quantities of oil and natural gas, which, 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 regulation before the time at which contracts providing the right to operate expire, unless evidence
indicates that renewal is reasonably certain. Proved developed reserves are the quantities expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods in which the cost of the required equipment is relatively minor
compared with the cost of a new well. Due to the inherent uncertainties and the limited nature of reservoir data, such estimates are subject to change as additional information becomes available. The reserves actually recovered and the timing of
production of these reserves may be substantially different from the original estimate. Revisions result primarily from new information obtained from development drilling and production history and from changes in economic factors.

Standardized Measure

The standardized measure of
discounted future net cash flows and changes in such cash flows are prepared using assumptions required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board. Such assumptions include the use of 12-month average prices for oil and gas, based on the
first-day-of-the-month price for each month in the period, and year end costs for estimated future development and production expenditures to produce the proved reserves. Future net cash flows are discounted at an annual rate of 10%. No provision is
included for federal income taxes since future net cash flows are not subject to taxation at the trust level.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)



The standardized measure does not represent managements estimate of our future cash flows or the
value of proved oil and gas reserves. Probable and possible reserves, which may become proved in the future, are excluded from the calculations. Furthermore, prices used to determine the standardized measure are influenced by supply and demand as
affected by recent economic conditions as well as other factors and may not be the most representative in estimating future revenues or reserve data.

Estimated costs to plug and abandon wells on the underlying working interest properties at the end of their productive lives have not been deducted from
cash flows since this is not a legal obligation of the trust. These costs are the legal obligation of XTO Energy as the owner of the underlying working interests and will only be deducted from net proceeds payable to the trust if net proceeds from
the related conveyance exceed such costs when paid, subject to excess cost carryforward provisions (Notes 3 and 4).

The average realized gas prices
used to determine the standardized measure were $4.35 per Mcf in 2014, $3.92 per Mcf in 2013, $3.21 per Mcf in 2012 and $4.67 per Mcf in 2011. Oil prices used to determine the standardized measure were based on average realized oil prices of $92.70
per Bbl in 2014, $94.32 per Bbl in 2013, $91.90 per Bbl in 2012 and $92.92 per Bbl in 2011.

Extensions, additions and discoveries in 2012, 2013 and 2014 are primarily related to delineation of additional proved
undeveloped reserves in the Anadarko Basin. Revisions of prior estimates of the proved gas reserves for the underlying properties in each year are primarily because of changes in the gas and oil prices. Higher upward and downward revisions for the
net profits interests as compared with the underlying properties in each year were caused by changes in oil and gas prices and estimated future production and development costs which resulted in an increase or decrease in gas reserves allocated to
the trust.

The trustee conducted an evaluation of the trusts disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on this evaluation, the trustee has concluded that the trusts disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this annual report. In its

The trustee, Southwest Bank, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined
in Rule 13a-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The trustee conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the trusts internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria established in
Internal Control  Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on the trustees evaluation under the framework in Internal Control  Integrated
Framework (2013), the trustee concluded that the trusts internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2014. The effectiveness of the trusts internal control over financial reporting as of

PART III

Item 10.Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance

The trust has no directors, executive officers or audit committee. The trustee is a corporate trustee which may be removed, with or without cause, by the
affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of all the units then outstanding.

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires
that directors, officers, and beneficial owners of more than 10% of the registrants equity securities file initial reports of beneficial ownership and reports of changes in beneficial ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission and
the New York Stock Exchange. To the trustees knowledge, based solely on the information furnished to the trustee, the trustee is unaware of any person that failed to file on a timely basis reports required by Section 16(a) filing
requirements with respect to the trust units of beneficial interest during and for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Because the trust has no
employees, it does not have a code of ethics. Employees of the trustee, Southwest Bank, must comply with the banks standards of conduct, a copy of which will be made available to unitholders without charge, upon request by appointment at 2911
Turtle Creek Boulevard, Suite 850, Dallas, Texas, 75219.
