GLOSSARY OF CERTAIN DEFINITIONS

The following are definitions of significant terms used in this report:

August 2014 distribution The cash distribution to Trust unitholders of record on August 19, 2014 which is payable on
or before August 29, 2014.

Bbl One stock tank barrel, or 42 U.S. gallons liquid volume, used in this report in
reference to oil and other liquid hydrocarbons.

BOE One stock tank barrel of oil equivalent, computed on an
approximate energy equivalent basis that one Bbl of crude oil equals six Mcf of natural gas and one Bbl of crude oil equals one Bbl of natural gas liquids.

BtuorBritish thermal unit The quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of one pound of water
one degree Fahrenheit.

completion The installation of permanent equipment for the production of oil or natural gas, or
in the case of a dry hole, the reporting of abandonment to the appropriate agency.

COPAS The Council of Petroleum
Accountants Societies, Inc.

costless collar An options position where the proceeds from the sale of a call option at
its inception fund the purchase of a put option at its inception.

deterministic method The method of estimating
reserves or resources using a single value for each parameter (from the geoscience, engineering or economic data) in the reserves calculation.

FASB ASC The Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification.

February 2013 distribution The cash distribution to Trust unitholders of record on February 19, 2013 that was paid on
March 1, 2013.

February 2014 distribution The cash distribution to Trust unitholders of record on
February 19, 2014 that was paid on March 3, 2014.

field An area consisting of either a single reservoir or
multiple reservoirs, all grouped on or related to the same individual geological structural feature and/or stratigraphic condition. There may be two or more reservoirs in a field that are separated vertically by intervening impervious strata, or
laterally by local geologic barriers, or both. Reservoirs that are associated by being in overlapping or adjacent fields may be treated as a single or common operational field. The geological terms structural feature and
stratigraphic condition are intended to identify localized geological features as opposed to the broader terms of basins, trends, provinces, plays, areas of interest, etc.

GAAP Generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.

gross wells The total wells in which a working interest is owned.

lease operating expense or LOE The expenses of lifting oil or gas from a producing formation to the
surface, constituting part of the current operating expenses of a working interest, and also including labor, superintendence, supplies, repairs, short-lived assets, maintenance, allocated overhead costs and other expenses incidental to production,
but not including lease acquisition or drilling or completion expenses.

May 2013 distribution The cash distribution to
Trust unitholders of record on May 20, 2013 that was paid on May 30, 2013.

May 2014 distribution The cash
distribution to Trust unitholders of record on May 20, 2014 that was paid on May 30, 2014.

MBbl One thousand
barrels of crude oil or other liquid hydrocarbons.

MBOE One thousand BOE.

Mcf One thousand standard cubic feet, used in reference to natural gas.

##### Table of Contents

MMBOE One million BOE.

MMBtu One million Btu.

net profits interestorNPI A nonoperating interest that creates a share in gross production from an
operating or working interest in oil and natural gas properties. The share is measured by net profits from the sale of production after deducting costs associated with that production.

net wells The sum of the fractional working interests owned in gross wells.

NYMEX The New York Mercantile Exchange.

plugging and abandonmentRefers to the sealing off of fluids in the strata penetrated by a well so that the fluids from one
stratum will not escape into another or to the surface. Regulations of many states require plugging of abandoned wells.

proved
reserves Those reserves 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 regulationsprior to the time at which contracts providing the right to operate expire, unless evidence indicates that renewal is reasonably certain, regardless of whether deterministic or
probabilistic methods are used for the estimation. The project to extract the hydrocarbons must have commenced, or the operator must be reasonably certain that it will commence the project, within a reasonable time.

The area of the reservoir considered as proved includes all of the following:



| | a. | The area identified by drilling and limited by fluid contacts, if any, and
| | -- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | b. | Adjacent undrilled portions of the reservoir that can, with reasonable certainty, be judged to be continuous with it and to contain economically
producible oil or gas on the basis of available geoscience and engineering data.
| | -- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Reserves that can be produced
economically through application of improved recovery techniques (including, but not limited to, fluid injection) are included in the proved classification when both of the following occur:



| | a. | Successful testing by a pilot project in an area of the reservoir with properties no more favorable than in the reservoir as a whole, the operation
of an installed program in the reservoir or an analogous reservoir, or other evidence using reliable technology establishes the reasonable certainty of the engineering analysis on which the project or program was based, and
| | -- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | b. | The project has been approved for development by all necessary parties and entities, including governmental entities.
| | -- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Existing economic conditions include prices and costs at which economic producibility from a reservoir is to be determined. The price shall be
the average price during the 12-month period before the ending date of the period covered by the report, determined as an unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month price for each month within such period, unless prices are defined
by contractual arrangements, excluding escalations based upon future conditions.

reasonable certainty If deterministic
methods are used, reasonable certainty means a high degree of confidence that the quantities will be recovered. If probabilistic methods are used, there should be at least a 90 percent probability that the quantities actually recovered will equal or
exceed the estimate. A high degree of confidence exists if the quantity is much more likely to be achieved than not, and, as changes due to increased availability of geoscience (geological, geophysical and geochemical), engineering and economic data
are made to estimated ultimate recovery with time, reasonably certain estimated ultimate recovery is much more likely to increase or remain constant than to decrease.

reservesEstimated remaining quantities of oil and gas and related substances anticipated to be economically producible, as
of a given date, by application of development projects to known accumulations. In addition, there must exist, or there must be a reasonable expectation that there will exist, the legal right to produce or a revenue interest in the production,
installed means of delivering oil and gas or related substances to market, and all permits and financing required to implement the project.

reservoir A porous and permeable underground formation containing a natural accumulation of producible crude oil and/or
natural gas that is confined by impermeable rock or water barriers and is individual and separate from other reservoirs.

SEC The United States Securities and Exchange Commission.

working interestThe interest in a crude oil and natural gas property (normally a leasehold interest) that gives the owner
the right to drill, produce and conduct operations on the property and to share in production, subject to all royalties, overriding royalties and other burdens and the obligation to share in all costs of exploration, development and operations and
all risks in connection therewith.

workover Operations on a producing well to restore or increase production.

WHITING USA TRUST II

NOTES TO MODIFIED CASH BASIS FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)



|1. | ORGANIZATION OF THE TRUST
|-- | -------------------------

Formation of the Trust  Whiting USA Trust II (the Trust) is a statutory trust formed on December 5, 2011
under the Delaware Statutory Trust Act, pursuant to a trust agreement (the Trust agreement) among Whiting Oil and Gas Corporation (Whiting Oil and Gas), as trustor, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee
(the Trustee) and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as Delaware trustee (the Delaware Trustee). The initial capitalization of the Trust estate was funded by Whiting Petroleum Corporation (Whiting) on
December 8, 2011.

The Trust was created to acquire and hold a term net profits interest (NPI) for the benefit of the
Trust unitholders pursuant to a conveyance from Whiting Oil and Gas, a 100%-owned subsidiary of Whiting, to the Trust. The term NPI is an interest in certain of Whiting Oil and Gas properties located in the Rocky Mountains, Permian Basin, Gulf
Coast and Mid-Continent regions (the underlying properties). The NPI is the only asset of the Trust, other than cash reserves held for future Trust expenses. As of December 31, 2013, these oil and gas properties included interests
in approximately 1,308 gross (388.5 net) producing oil and gas wells.

The NPI is passive in nature, and the Trustee has no management
control over and no responsibility relating to the operation of the underlying properties. The NPI entitles the Trust to receive 90% of the net proceeds from the sale of production from the underlying properties. The NPI will terminate on the later
to occur of (1) December 31, 2021, or (2) the time when 11.79 MMBOE have been produced from the underlying properties and sold (which amount is the equivalent of 10.61 MMBOE in respect of the Trusts right to receive 90% of the net
proceeds from such reserves pursuant to the NPI), and the Trust will soon thereafter wind up its affairs and terminate, after which it will pay no further distributions. As of June 30, 2014 on a cumulative accrual basis, 3.89 MMBOE
(37%) of the Trusts total 10.61 MMBOE have been produced and sold, and the remaining minimum reserve quantities of 6.72 MMBOE (at the 90% NPI) are projected to be produced prior to December 31, 2021, based on the Trusts reserve
report as of December 31, 2013. Since the Trust is not currently expected to contractually terminate until December 31, 2021, additional reserves and production attributable to the NPI may be available for distribution to unitholders (also
based on the year-end reserve report) between the time that the Trusts minimum 10.61 MMBOE have been produced and sold and the expected December 31, 2021 termination date of the Trust occurs. The Trusts Annual Report on Form 10-K
includes additional information on the Trusts reserves as of December 31, 2013.

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

Initial Issuance of
Trust Units and Net Profits Interest Conveyance  On March 21, 2012, the registration statement on Form S-1/S-3 (Registration No. 333-178586) filed by Whiting and the Trust in connection with the initial public offering of the
Trusts units was declared effective by the SEC. On March 28, 2012, the Trust issued 18,400,000 Trust units to Whiting in exchange for the conveyance of the term NPI, which is described above, from Whiting Oil and Gas. Immediately
thereafter, Whiting completed an initial public offering of units of beneficial interest in the Trust, selling 18,400,000 Trust units to the public at $20.00 per unit.



|2. | BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
|-- | -------------------

Interim Financial StatementsThe accompanying unaudited financial information has been prepared by the Trustee in
accordance with the instructions to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The accompanying financial information is prepared on a comprehensive basis of accounting other than GAAP. The Trustee believes that the information furnished reflects all
adjustments (consisting of normal and recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of the Trustee, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. Operating results for the periods presented are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. The Trusts 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K includes certain definitions and a summary of significant accounting policies and should be read in conjunction with this
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

##### Table of Contents

Term Net Profits Interest  The Trust uses the modified cash basis of
accounting to report Trust receipts from the term NPI and payments of expenses incurred. Actual cash distributions to the Trust are made based on the terms of the conveyance that created the Trusts NPI. The term NPI entitles the Trust to
receive revenues (oil, gas and natural gas liquid sales) less expenses (the amount by which all royalties; lease operating expenses including well workover costs; development costs; production and property taxes; payments made by Whiting to the
hedge counterparty upon settlements of hedge contracts; maintenance expenses; producing overhead; and amounts that may be reserved for future development, maintenance or operating expenses, which reserve amounts may not exceed $2.0 million, exceed
hedge payments received by Whiting under hedge contracts and other non-production revenue) of the underlying properties multiplied by 90% (term NPI percentage). Actual cash receipts may vary due to timing delays of cash receipts from the property
operators or purchasers and due to wellhead and pipeline volume balancing agreements or practices.

Modified Cash Basis of
AccountingThe financial statements of the Trust, as prepared on a modified cash basis, reflect the Trusts assets, liabilities, Trust corpus, earnings and distributions, as follows:



| | a) | Income from net profits interest is recorded when NPI distributions are received by the Trust;
| | -- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | b) | Distributions to Trust unitholders are recorded when paid by the Trust;
| | -- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------



| | c) | Trust general and administrative expenses (which include the Trustees fees as well as accounting, engineering, legal, and other professional
fees) are recorded when paid;
| | -- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | d) | Cash reserves for Trust expenses may be established by the Trustee for certain expenditures that would not be recorded as contingent liabilities
under GAAP;
| | -- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | e) | Amortization of the investment in net profits interest is calculated based on the units-of-production method. Such amortization is charged directly
to Trust corpus and does not affect cash earnings; and
| | -- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | f) | The Trust evaluates impairment of the investment in net profits interest by comparing the undiscounted cash flows expected to be realized from the
investment in net profits interest to the NPI carrying value. If the expected future undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value, the Trust recognizes an impairment loss for the difference between the carrying value and the estimated
fair value of the investment in net profits interest. The determination of whether the NPI is impaired requires a significant amount of judgment by the Trustee and is based on the best information available to the Trustee at the time of the
evaluation. If market or oil and natural gas production conditions deteriorate, write-downs could be required in the future.
| | -- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

While these statements differ from financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, the modified cash basis of reporting revenues and
distributions is considered to be the most meaningful for the Trusts activities and results because quarterly distributions to the Trust unitholders are based on net cash receipts. This comprehensive basis of accounting other than GAAP
corresponds to the accounting permitted for royalty trusts by the SEC as specified by FASB ASC Topic 932, Extractive Activities  Oil and Gas: Financial Statements of Royalty Trusts.

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

Recent Accounting PronouncementsThere were no accounting pronouncements issued during the six months ended June 30, 2014 applicable to the Trust or its financial statements.

|3. | INVESTMENT IN NET PROFITS INTEREST
|-- | ----------------------------------

Whiting Oil and Gas conveyed the NPI to the Trust in exchange for 18,400,000 Trust units. The investment in net profits interest was recorded
at the historical cost basis of Whiting on March 28, 2012, the date of conveyance (except for the derivatives which are reflected at their fair value as of March 31, 2012), and was calculated as follows (in thousands):



|                                                                   |  |   |          |

|Accumulated depletion                                              |  |   | (174,626 | )
|                                                                   |  |   |          |

|                                                                   |  |   |          |  
|Net predecessor cost of net profits interest conveyed to the Trust |  | $ | 194,032  |  
|                                                                   |  |   |          |  

As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, accumulated amortization of the investment in net profits
interest was $61.5 million and $49.0 million, respectively.



|4. | INCOME TAXES
|-- | ------------

The Trust is a grantor trust and therefore is not subject to federal income taxes. Accordingly, no recognition is given to federal income taxes
in the Trusts financial statements. The Trust unitholders are treated as the owners of Trust income and corpus, and the entire taxable income of the Trust is reported by the Trust unitholders on their respective tax returns.

For Montana state income tax purposes, Whiting must withhold from its NPI payments to the Trust, an amount equal to 6% of the net amount
payable to the Trust from the sale of oil and gas in Montana. For Arkansas, Colorado, Michigan, Mississippi, New Mexico, North Dakota and Oklahoma, neither the Trust nor Whiting is withholding the income tax due such states on distributions made to
an individual resident or nonresident Trust unitholder, as long as the Trust is taxed as a grantor trust under the Internal Revenue Code.



|5. | DISTRIBUTION TO UNITHOLDERS
|-- | ---------------------------

Actual cash distributions to the Trust unitholders depend on the volumes of and prices received for oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids
produced from the underlying properties, among other factors. Quarterly cash distributions during the term of the Trust are made by the Trustee no later than 60 days following the end of each quarter (or the next succeeding business day) to the
Trust unitholders of record on the 50th day following the end of each quarter. Such amounts equal the excess, if any, of the cash received by the Trust during the quarter, over the expenses of the Trust paid during such quarter, subject to any
adjustments for changes made by the Trustee during such quarter in any cash reserves established for future expenses of the Trust.



|6. | RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
|-- | --------------------------

Plugging and AbandonmentDuring the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, Whiting incurred $1.0 million
and $1.2 million, respectively, of plugging and abandonment costs on the underlying properties. Pursuant to the terms of the conveyance agreement, plugging and abandonment charges relating to the underlying properties, net of any proceeds received
from the salvage of equipment, are funded entirely by Whiting and are not therefore included as a deduction in the calculation of net proceeds or otherwise deducted from Trust unitholders over the term of the Trust.

Operating OverheadPursuant to the terms of its applicable joint operating agreements, Whiting deducts from the
gross oil and gas sales proceeds an overhead fee to operate those underlying properties for which Whiting has been designated as the operator. Additionally, with respect to those underlying properties for which Whiting is the operator but where
there is no operating agreement in place, Whiting deducts from the gross proceeds an overhead fee calculated in the same manner that Whiting allocates overhead to other similarly owned properties, which is customary practice in the oil and gas
industry. Operating overhead activities include various engineering, legal, and administrative functions. The fee is adjusted annually pursuant to COPAS guidelines and will increase or decrease each year based on changes in the year-end index of
average weekly earnings of crude petroleum and natural gas workers. The following table presents the Trusts portion of these overhead charges for the distribution made during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013:

Administrative Services FeeUnder the terms of the administrative
services agreement, the Trust is obligated to pay a quarterly administration fee of $50,000 to Whiting 60 days following the end of each calendar quarter. General and administrative expenses in the Trusts statements of distributable income for
the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 include $50,000 and $100,000, respectively, for quarterly administrative fees paid to Whiting, and general and administrative expenses in the Trusts statements of distributable income for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2013 also include $50,000 and $100,000, respectively, for quarterly administrative fees paid to Whiting.

Trustee Administrative FeeUnder the terms of the Trust agreement, the Trust pays an annual administrative fee to
the Trustee of $175,000, which is paid in four quarterly installments of $43,750 each and is billed in arrears. Starting in 2017, such fee escalates by 2.5% each year. General and administrative expenses in the Trusts statements of
distributable income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 include $43,750 and $87,500, respectively, for quarterly administrative fees paid to the Trustee, and general and administrative expenses in the Trusts statements of
distributable income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 also include $43,750 and $87,500, respectively, for quarterly administrative fees paid to the Trustee.

Letter of Credit In June 2012, Whiting established a $1.0 million letter of credit for the Trustee in order to
provide it with a mechanism to pay the operating expenses of the Trust, in the event that Whiting should fail to lend funds to the Trust if requested to do so by the Trustee. This letter of credit will not be used to fund NPI distributions to
unitholders, and Whiting has no obligation to lend funds to the Trust. If the Trustee were to draw on the letter of credit or borrow funds from Whiting or otherwise, no further distributions would be made to unitholders until all such amounts have
been repaid by the Trust.



|7. | SUBSEQUENT EVENT
|-- | ----------------

On August 7, 2014, the Trustee announced the Trust distribution of net profits for the second quarterly payment period in 2014.
Unitholders of record on August 19, 2014 are expected to receive a distribution of $0.828699 per Trust unit, which is payable on or before August 29, 2014. This aggregate distribution to all Trust unitholders is expected to consist of net
cash proceeds of $15.5 million paid by Whiting to the Trust, less a provision of $250,000 for estimated Trust expenses and $6,297 for Montana state income tax withholdings. There were no realized gains or losses on hedge settlements during the
second quarterly payment period of 2014.

Overview and Trust Termination

The Trust
does not conduct any operations or activities. The Trusts purpose is, in general, to hold the NPI, to distribute to unitholders cash that the Trust receives in respect of the NPI, and to perform certain administrative functions in respect of
the NPI and the Trust units. The Trust derives substantially all of its income and cash flows from the NPI, which is in turn subject to commodity hedge contracts through December 31, 2014. The NPI entitles the Trust to receive 90% of the net
proceeds from the sale of production from the underlying properties.

Oil and gas prices historically have been volatile and may fluctuate widely in the future. The
table below highlights these price trends by listing quarterly average NYMEX crude oil and natural gas prices for the periods indicated through June 30, 2014. The May 2014 distribution in the second quarter of 2014 was mainly affected, however,
by January 2014 through March 2014 oil prices and December 2013 through February 2014 natural gas prices.

Lower oil and gas prices on production from the underlying properties could cause the following: (i) a
reduction in the amount of net proceeds to which the Trust is entitled; and (ii) a reduction in the amount of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids that is economic to produce from the underlying properties causing an extension of the length
of time required to produce 11.79 MMBOE (10.61 MMBOE at the 90% NPI). Alternatively, higher oil and natural gas prices may potentially result in the following: (i) an increase in the amount of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids that is
economic to produce from the underlying properties, and (ii) cash settlement losses on commodity derivatives.

Trust Termination.The NPI will terminate on the later to occur of (1) December 31, 2021, or (2) the time when 11.79 MMBOE (10.61 MMBOE at the 90% NPI) have been produced from the underlying properties and sold, and the Trust will soon thereafter
wind up its affairs and terminate, after which it will pay no further distributions. 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 or yield. As a result, the market price of the Trust units will decline to zero at termination of the Trust. As of June 30, 2014 on a cumulative accrual basis, 3.89 MMBOE
(37%) of the Trusts total 10.61 MMBOE have been produced and sold (of which proceeds from the sale of 355 MBOE, which is 90% of 394 MBOE, will be distributed to the unitholders in the Trusts forthcoming August 2014 distribution).
The remaining minimum reserve quantities are projected to be produced prior to December 31, 2021, based on the Trusts reserve report as of December 31, 2013. Since the Trust is not currently expected to contractually terminate until
December 31, 2021, however, additional reserves and production attributable to the NPI may be available for distribution to unitholders (also based on the year-end reserve report) between the time that the Trusts minimum 10.61 MMBOE have
been produced and sold and the expected December 31, 2021 termination date of the Trust occurs. Accordingly, the Trusts remaining reserves attributable to the 90% NPI were estimated to be 8.15 MMBOE as of December 31, 2013, which is
more than the minimum, but there is no assurance that the Trust will receive more than the minimum amount of reserves. The Trusts Annual Report on Form 10-K includes additional information on the Trusts reserves as of December 31,
2013.

Capital Expenditure Activities

The primary goal of the planned capital expenditures relative to the underlying properties is to mitigate a portion of the natural decline in
production from producing properties. The underlying properties have a capital expenditure budget per the December 31, 2013 reserve report of $31.5 million estimated to be spent over eight years. No assurance can be given, however, that any
such expenditures will result in the production of commercially paying amounts, if any, or that the characteristics of any newly developed well will match the characteristics of existing wells on the underlying properties or the operators
historical drilling success rate. In addition, no assurance can be given that Whitings actual level of capital expenditures on the underlying properties will meet this $31.5 million amount of budgeted capital expenditures over the next eight
years. With respect to fields for which Whiting is not the operator, Whiting will have limited control over the timing and amount of capital expenditures relative to such fields. Please read the Trusts Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 2013, Item 1A. Risk Factors Whiting has limited control over activities on the underlying properties that Whiting does not operate, which could reduce production from the underlying properties, increase
capital expenditures and reduce cash available for distribution to Trust unitholders.

During each twelve-month period beginning on
the later to occur of (1) December 31, 2017 and (2) the time when 8.24 MMBOE have been produced from the underlying properties and sold (which is the equivalent of 7.41 MMBOE attributable to the 90% NPI) (in either case, the
capital expenditure limitation date), the sum of the capital expenditures and amounts reserved for approved capital expenditure projects for such twelve-month period may not exceed the average annual capital expenditure amount. The
average annual capital expenditure amount means the quotient of (x) the sum of the capital expenditures and amounts reserved for approved capital expenditure projects with respect to the three twelve-month periods ending on the
capital expenditure limitation date, divided by (y) three. Commencing on the capital expenditure limitation date, and each anniversary of the capital expenditure limitation date thereafter, the average annual capital expenditure amount will be
increased by 2.5% to account for expected increased costs due to inflation.

Income from Net Profits Interest. Income from net profits interest is recorded on a cash basis when NPI proceeds are received by the
Trust from Whiting. NPI proceeds that Whiting remits to the Trust are based on the oil and gas production Whiting has received payment for within one month following the end of the most recent fiscal quarter. Whiting receives payment for its crude
oil sales generally within 30 days following the month in which it is produced, and Whiting receives payment for its natural gas sales generally within 60 days following the month in which it is produced. Income from net profits interest is
generally a function of oil and gas revenues, lease operating expenses, production taxes and development costs as follows:

Revenues. Oil and natural gas revenues were $1.7 million (or 3%) higher for the six months ended June 30, 2014 as
compared to the same 2013 period. Sales revenue is a function of average commodity prices realized and oil and gas volumes sold. The increase in revenue between periods was due to higher realized oil and natural gas prices, which were partially
offset, however, by a decrease in oil and natural gas production volumes. The average sales prices realized increased for crude oil by 8% and for natural gas by 20% between periods. Oil production volumes decreased by 38 MBbls (or 6%) when comparing
the first half of 2014 to the same period in 2013 primarily due to i) normal field production decline, ii) five wells that were shut-in for a portion of the 2014 period, and iii) one well that was temporarily abandoned at the end of 2013. The
decline in oil production between periods was partially offset, however, by two newly drilled wells and one workover well that came online during the last twelve months and differences in timing associated with revenues received from non-operated
properties. Gas production volumes decreased by 37 MMcf (or 3%) between periods primarily due to normal field production decline and two wells that were shut-in for a portion of the 2014 period. The decline in gas production was partially offset,
however, by i) one recompleted well and one newly drilled well that came online during the last twelve months and ii) differences in timing associated with revenues received from non-operated properties. Based on the December 31, 2013 reserve
report, overall production attributable to the underlying properties is expected to decline at an average year-over-year rate of approximately 8.4% from 2014 through the estimated December 31, 2021 Trust termination date.

Lease Operating Expenses. Lease operating expenses (LOE) increased $1.3 million (or 6%) during the first six
months of 2014 compared to the same 2013 period primarily due to increased workover and electricity costs of $0.7 million and $0.4 million, respectively. The higher overall LOE coupled with the decrease in overall production volumes resulted in an
increase in LOE on a per BOE basis of 12% between periods, from $25.66 during the first half of 2013 to $28.68 for the same period in 2014.

Production Taxes. Production taxes are typically calculated as a percentage of oil and gas revenues, and production
taxes as a percent of revenues remained relatively consistent for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 at 5.3% and 5.1%, respectively. Overall production taxes for the first half of 2014, however, increased $0.2 million (or 6%) as
compared to the same period in 2013, primarily due to higher oil and natural gas sales revenue between periods.

Development Costs. Development costs for the six months ended June 30, 2014 were $0.5 million (or 8%) lower as
compared to the same 2013 period. This decrease was primarily related to i) reduced drilling activity in the Sandtank Bone Springs field of $1.3 million and ii) fewer recompletions in the Keystone South field of $0.6 million. These development cost
decreases were partially offset by a well recompletion in the Deb field of $1.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2014.

Income from Net Profits Interest. Income from net profits interest is recorded on a cash
basis when NPI proceeds are received by the Trust from Whiting. NPI proceeds that Whiting remits to the Trust are based on the oil and gas production Whiting has received payment for within one month following the end of the most recent fiscal
quarter. Whiting receives payment for its crude oil sales generally within 30 days following the month in which it is produced, and Whiting receives payment for its natural gas sales generally within 60 days following the month in which it is
produced. Income from net profits interest is generally a function of oil and gas revenues, lease operating expenses, production taxes and development costs as follows:

Revenues. Oil and natural gas revenues were $1.1 million (or 4%) higher for the three months ended June 30, 2014 as
compared to the same 2013 period. Sales revenue is a function of average commodity prices realized and oil and gas volumes sold. The increase in revenue between periods was due to higher realized oil and natural gas prices, which were partially
offset, however, by a decrease in oil and natural gas production volumes. The average sales prices realized increased for crude oil by 9% and for natural gas by 34% between periods. Oil production volumes decreased by 20 MBbls (or 6%) when comparing
the second quarter of 2014 to the same period in 2013 primarily due to i) normal field production decline, ii) two wells that were shut-in for a portion of the 2014 period, and iii) one well that was temporarily abandoned at the end of 2013. The
decline in oil production was partially offset, however, by one newly drilled well and one workover well that came online during the last twelve months and differences in timing associated with revenues received from non-operated properties. Gas
production volumes decreased by 73 MMcf (or 12%) between periods primarily due to i) normal field production decline, ii) three wells that were shut-in for a portion of the 2014 period, and iii) differences in timing associated with revenues
received from non-operated properties. The decline in gas production between periods was partially offset, however, by one recompleted well and one newly drilled well that came online during the last twelve months. Based on the December 31,
2013 reserve report, overall production attributable to the underlying properties is expected to decline at an average year-over-year rate of approximately 8.4% from 2014 through the estimated December 31, 2021 Trust termination date.

Lease Operating Expenses. Lease operating expenses (LOE) increased $1.1 million (or 11%) during the second
quarter of 2014 compared to the same 2013 period primarily due to increased workover and electricity costs of $0.5 million and $0.3 million, respectively. The higher overall LOE coupled with the decrease in overall production volumes resulted in an
increase in LOE on a per BOE basis of 21% between periods, from $23.53 during the second quarter of 2013 to $28.42 for the same period in 2014.

Production Taxes. Production taxes are typically calculated as a percentage of oil and gas revenues, and production
taxes as a percent of revenues remained relatively consistent for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 at 5.3% and 5.1%, respectively. Overall production taxes for the second quarter of 2014, however, increased $0.1 million (or 7%) as
compared to the same period in 2013, primarily due to higher oil and natural gas sales revenue between periods.

Development Costs. Development costs for the three months ended June 30, 2014 were $0.9 million (or 25%) lower as
compared to 2013 development costs for the same period. This decrease was primarily related to i) reduced drilling activity in the Sandtank Bone Springs field of $1.3 million and ii) reduced drilling and facility expansion costs in the Rangely Weber
field of $0.3 million. These development cost decreases were partially offset by a well recompletion in the Deb field of $0.7 million during the second quarter of 2014.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Trust has no source of liquidity or capital resources other than cash flows from the NPI. Other than Trust administrative expenses,
including any reserves established by the Trustee for future liabilities, the Trusts only use of cash is for distributions to Trust unitholders. Administrative expenses include payments to the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee, a quarterly fee
paid to Whiting pursuant to an administrative services agreement, and expenses in connection with the discharge of the Trustees duties, including third party engineering, audit, accounting and legal fees. Each quarter, the Trustee determines
the amount of funds available for distribution to unitholders. Available funds are the excess cash, if any, received by the Trust from the NPI and other sources (such as interest earned on any amounts reserved by the Trustee) that quarter, over the
Trusts expenses for that quarter. Available funds are reduced by any cash the Trustee decides to hold as a reserve against future liabilities. The Trustee may borrow funds required to pay liabilities if the Trustee determines that the cash on
hand and the cash to be received are insufficient to cover the Trusts liabilities. If the Trustee borrows funds, the Trust unitholders will not receive distributions until the borrowed funds are repaid.

Income to the Trust from the NPI is based on the calculation and definitions of gross proceeds and net proceeds
contained in the conveyance agreement, which is filed as an exhibit to this report, and reference is hereby made to such conveyance agreement for the actual definitions of gross proceeds and net proceeds.

Whiting may reserve from the gross proceeds amounts up to a total of $2.0 million at any time for future development, maintenance or operating
expenses. However, Whiting has not funded such a reserve since the inception of the Trust, including during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. Instead, Whiting deducted from the gross proceeds only actual costs paid for
development, maintenance and operating expenses.

Plugging and abandonment costs related to the underlying properties, net of any proceeds
received from the salvage of equipment, cannot be included as a deduction in the calculation of net proceeds pursuant to the terms of the conveyance agreement. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, Whiting incurred $1.0 million
and $1.2 million, respectively, of plugging and abandonment charges on the underlying properties that were not passed on to the unitholders of the Trust.

In June 2012, Whiting established a letter of credit in the amount of $1.0 million in favor of the Trustee to provide a mechanism for the
Trustee to pay the operating expenses of the Trust, in the event that Whiting should fail to lend funds to the Trust if requested to do so by the Trustee. This letter of credit will not be used to fund NPI distributions to unitholders, and Whiting
has no obligation to lend funds to the Trust. If the Trustee were to draw on the letter of credit or borrow funds from Whiting or otherwise, no further distributions would be made to unitholders until all such amounts have been repaid by the Trust.

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.

Future Trust Distributions to Unitholders

On August 7, 2014, the Trustee announced the Trust distribution of net profits for the second quarterly payment period in 2014.
Unitholders of record on August 29, 2014 are expected to receive a distribution of $0.828699 per Trust unit, which is payable on or before August 29, 2014. This aggregate distribution to all Trust unitholders is expected to consist of net
cash proceeds of $15.5 million paid by Whiting to the Trust, less a provision of $250,000 for estimated Trust expenses and $6,297 for Montana state income tax withholdings. There were no realized gains or losses on hedge settlements during the
second quarterly payment period of 2014.

New Accounting Pronouncements

There were no accounting pronouncements issued during the six months ended June 30, 2014 applicable to the Trust or its financial
statements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

A disclosure of critical accounting policies and the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the Trusts
financial statements is included in Item 7 of the Trusts Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. There have been no significant changes to the critical accounting policies during the six months ended
June 30, 2014.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Commodity Hedge Contracts

The primary
asset of and source of income to the Trust is the term NPI, which generally entitles the Trust to receive 90% of the net proceeds from oil and gas production from the underlying properties. Consequently, the Trust is exposed to market risk from
fluctuations in oil and gas prices. Through 2014, however, the NPI is subject to commodity hedge contracts in the form of costless collars entered into by Whiting, which are intended to reduce, but not eliminate, the NPIs exposure to crude oil
price volatility. No additional hedges are allowed to be placed on Trust assets, and the Trust cannot therefore enter into derivative contracts for speculative or trading purposes.

The revenues derived from the underlying properties depend substantially on prevailing crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids prices.
As a result, commodity prices also affect the amount of cash flow available for distribution to the Trust unitholders. Lower prices may also reduce the amount of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids that Whiting can economically produce. Whiting
sells the oil, natural gas and natural gas liquid production from the underlying properties under floating market price contracts each month. Whiting entered into certain hedge contracts through December 31, 2014 to manage the exposure to crude
oil price volatility associated with revenues generated from the underlying properties, and to achieve more predictable cash flows. However, these contracts also limit the amount of cash available for distribution if prices increase above the fixed
ceilings of the hedges. The hedge contracts consist of costless collar arrangements placed with a single trading counterparty, JPMorgan Chase Bank National Association. Whiting cannot provide assurance that this trading counterparty will not become
a credit risk in the future.

Crude oil costless collar arrangements settle based on the average of the closing settlement price for each
commodity business day in the contract period. In a collar arrangement, the counterparty is required to make a payment to Whiting for the difference between the fixed floor price and the settlement price if the settlement price is below the fixed
floor price. Whiting is required to make a payment to the hedge counterparty for the difference between the fixed ceiling price and the settlement price if the settlement price is above the fixed ceiling price.

In connection with Whitings conveyance on March 28, 2012 of the term NPI to the Trust, the rights to any future hedge payments
Whiting makes or receives on certain of its derivative contracts (representing 241 MBbl of crude oil from July through December 2014) were also conveyed to the Trust. As a result, such hedge payments, if any, will be included in the Trusts
calculation of net proceeds, and Trust unitholders thereby would receive 90% of the future economic results of such hedges.

The table
below summarizes all of the outstanding costless collars that Whiting entered into and then in turn conveyed, as described in the preceding paragraph, to the Trust (of which Trust unitholders receive 90% of the future economic results). This
quantity of hedged oil volumes represents approximately 37% of the underlying properties projected oil production from July through December 2014, based on the estimated production of proved reserves in the Trusts December 31, 2013
reserve report.

The collared hedges shown above have the effect of providing a protective floor while allowing Trust
unitholders to share in upward price movements up to the ceiling. Consequently, while these hedges are designed to decrease exposure to price decreases, they also have the effect of limiting the benefit of price increases beyond the ceiling. For the
crude oil contracts listed above, a hypothetical $10.00 change in the NYMEX price above the ceiling price or below the floor price applied to the notional amounts would cause an aggregate change in the estimated future cash settlement (gains) losses
on all oil commodity derivatives of $2.4 million to Whiting, of which 90% would be transferred to the Trust. These hypothetical cash settlement (gains) losses would be recognized as contracts expire in the future periods through the remainder of
2014.

The cash amounts received by Whiting from the counterparty upon settlements of these hedge
contracts will reduce the production and development costs related to the underlying properties when calculating net proceeds. However, if the hedge payments received by Whiting under the hedge contracts and other non-production revenue exceed
production and development costs during a quarterly period, the ability to use such excess amounts to offset such costs may be deferred, with interest accruing on such amounts at the prevailing money market rate, until the next quarterly period
where the hedge payments and the other non-production revenue are less than such costs. In addition, the aggregate amounts paid by Whiting on settlement of the hedge contracts will reduce the amount of net proceeds paid to the Trust.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Trustee maintains disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that
information required to be disclosed by the Trust in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs
rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Trust is accumulated and communicated by Whiting to The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company,
N.A., as Trustee of the Trust, and its employees who participate in the preparation of the Trusts periodic reports as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

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

Due to the contractual arrangements of (i) the Trust agreement and (ii) the conveyance of the NPI, the Trustee relies on
(A) information provided by Whiting, including historical operating data, plans for future operating and capital expenditures, reserve information and information relating to projected production, and (B) conclusions and reports regarding
reserves by the Trusts independent reserve engineers. For a description of certain risks relating to these arrangements and risks relating to the Trustees reliance on information reported by Whiting and included in the Trusts
results of operations, see the Trusts Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, Item 1A. Risk Factors The Trust and the Trust unitholders have no voting or managerial rights with respect to the
underlying properties. As a result, neither the Trust nor the Trust unitholders have any ability to influence the operation of the underlying properties.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. During the quarter ended June 30, 2014, there has been no change in the
Trustees internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Trustees internal control over financial reporting relating to the Trust. The Trustee notes for purposes
of clarification that it has no authority over, and makes no statement concerning, the internal control over financial reporting of Whiting.
