This Amendment No. 16 to Statement of Beneficial Ownership on Schedule 13D (this "Amendment No. 16") amends the Statement of Beneficial Ownership on Schedule 13D filed by Ned L. Sherwood on June 11, 2013 (as amended by the Reporting Persons, the "Schedule 13D" or this "Statement"). Except as amended and supplemented by this Amendment No. 16, the Schedule 13D remains unchanged.

**Item 4.** **Purpose of Transaction.**

*Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following:*

On January 21, 2023, MRMP-Managers LLC, the Ned L. Sherwood Revocable Trust and Ned L. Sherwood (also referred to as the "Reporting Persons") entered into a cooperation and support agreement (the "Agreement") with Alex Kinzler and Barnwell Industries, Inc. (the "Company") to settle the potential proxy contest pertaining to the election of directors to the Board at the Company's 2023 annual meeting of stockholders (the "2023 Annual Meeting"). Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company agreed to nominate Messrs. Woodrum, Grossman and Kinzler, along with two new independent directors, Joshua Horowitz and Laurance Narbut, for election to the Board at the 2023 Annual Meeting and the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders (the "2024 Annual Meeting"). If at any time prior to the expiration of the Standstill Period (as defined below), Messrs. Woodrum and Narbut (together, the "Sherwood Designees") are unable or unwilling to serve as a director, the Reporting Persons, so long as they maintain at least 50% of their current ownership of Common Stock, shall have the right to appoint a replacement director subject to the reasonable approval of the Board; provided, that only one Sherwood Designee may be an Affiliate of the Reporting Persons. As of the date hereof, neither of the current Sherwood Designees is an Affiliate of the Reporting Persons.

The Reporting Persons agreed to vote their shares of Common Stock in favor of the election of the designated slate, and agreed to customary standstill and voting provisions until the date that is ten business days prior to the deadline for the submission of stockholder nominations for directors for the Company's 2025 annual meeting of stockholders ("Standstill Period").

Additionally, Mr. Sherwood has agreed to not increase his stockholdings beyond 28 percent of the Company's outstanding shares of Common Stock during the twelve months following the standstill period ("Initial Security Restriction Period") and to not increase his stockholdings beyond 30 percent of the Company's outstanding shares of Common Stock during the twelve months following the Initial Security Restriction Period.

The Company agreed not to expand the size of the Board above five members during the standstill period, and not to establish or maintain an executive committee or another committee with similar powers of the Board during the standstill period without each of the Sherwood Designees being appointed as a member of such committee. The Company further agreed to reimburse the Reporting Persons for their expenses related to this Agreement.

The Reporting Persons shall not be deemed to constitute a "group" for purposes of Section 13(d) with Mr. Kinzler.

**Item 5.** **Interest in Securities of the Issuer.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Mr. Sherwood beneficially owns in the aggregate 1,955,194.138 shares of Common Stock, which represents approximately 19.6% of the Company's outstanding shares of Common Stock.

Each percentage ownership of Common Stock set forth in this Statement is based on the 9,956,687 shares of Common Stock reported by the Company as outstanding as of December 9, 2022 in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 29, 2022.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) No transactions in the Common Stock have been effected by the Reporting Persons since the filing of Amendment No. 15 on October 25, 2022.

Sherwood (collectively, the "**MRMP Stockholders**," and each, a "**MRMP Stockholder**"). AK and the MRMP Stockholders are collectively referred to as the "**Parties**," and AK and each of the MRMP Stockholders, a "**Party**." As of the Signing Date, the provisions of this Term Sheet will be binding upon the Parties.

**WHEREAS**, as of the date hereof, the MRMP Stockholders beneficially own, in the aggregate, 1,989,321 shares of common stock, par value $0.50 per share (the "**Company Common Stock**"), of Barnwell Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "**Company**"), representing approximately 19.98% of the Company's outstanding shares;

**WHEREAS**, the Company and certain of the MRMP Stockholders entered into that certain Cooperation and Support Agreement, dated as of January 27, 2021 ("**Original CSA**"), regarding certain compositional changes to the Board of Directors of the Company (the "**Board**") and certain other matters, as provided for in that agreement, which expires as of January 23, 2023;

**WHEREAS**, the MRMP Stockholders issued a press release announcing their intention to run a proxy contest for full control of the Board at the Company's 2023 annual meeting of stockholders (the "**2023 Annual Meeting**");

**WHEREAS**, as of the date hereof, AK and the MRMP Stockholders have determined that it is in their respective best interests to come to an agreement with respect to the Company's slate of directors proposed to be elected at the 2023 Annual Meeting and certain other matters, as provided herein; and

**WHEREAS**, this Term Sheet will amend and restate in its entirety the Original CSA on the Effective Date (as defined below).

**NOW, THEREFORE**, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

1. <u>Board Matters and Related Agreements.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Director Nominations and Other Board Matters</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The Board shall (i) take all necessary actions to disband the Special Committee of the Board, (ii) take
all necessary actions to present this Term Sheet to the Board for approval, (iii) take all necessary actions to reconstitute the
Nominating Committee of the Board to consist of Kenneth S. Grossman ()"**KG**") and Douglas N. Woodrum ()"**DW** "),
(iv) upon the recommendation of the newly constituted Nominating Committee of the Board, take all necessary actions to appoint Laurance

checks by the Company and completion of standard director questionnaires, (v) use commercially reasonable efforts to hold the 2023
Annual Meeting within sixty (60) days of the Effective Date (as defined herein), and (vi) take all necessary actions to terminate

to the Board at the 2023 Annual Meeting and 2024 annual meeting of stockholders (the "**2024 Annual Meeting** "). The Board,
based on information provided by the Director Nominees, has determined that each of the Director Nominees, other than AK, would (A) qualify

of each of the Director Nominees to the Board, and (iii) solicit proxies in favor of and otherwise support the election of each of
the Director Nominees to the Board in a manner no less rigorous and less favorable than the manner in which the Company supported its
incumbent nominees to the Board with respect to prior annual meetings of the Company; subject to the receipt of customary documentation
and information from each Director Nominee and no material change in their background, qualifications or skills.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) During the Standstill Period, the Board will
not (A) except as otherwise contemplated herein, expand the size of the Board above five (5) members and (B) establish
or maintain an executive committee or another committee with similar powers of the Board without each of the Sherwood Designees (as defined
below) being appointed as a member of such committee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Additional Agreements</u>.
