MV OIL TRUST
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note 1Organization of theTrust
MV Oil Trust (the Trust) is a statutory Trust formed on August 3, 2006, under the Delaware Statutory Trust Act pursuant to a Trust Agreement (the Trust Agreement) among MV Partners, LLC (MV Partners) as trustor, The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee (the Trustee), and Wilmington Trust Company, as Delaware Trustee (the Delaware Trustee).
The Trust was created to acquire and hold a term net profits interest for the benefit of the Trust unitholders pursuant to a conveyance from MV Partners to the Trust. The term net profits interest is an interest in underlying properties consisting of MV Partners net interests in all of its oil and natural gas properties located in the Mid-Continent region in the states of Kansas and Colorado (the underlying properties). These oil and gas properties include approximately 995 producing oil and gas wells.
On December 29, 2006, the registration statement on Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-136609) filed by MV Partners and the Trust in connection with the initial public offering of the Trust units was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The registration statement registered for sale to the public 8,625,000 Trust units of MV Oil Trust in the aggregate. On January 24, 2007, MV Oil Trust issued 11,500,000 Trust units to MV Partners in exchange for the conveyance by MV Partners of the net profits interest discussed above as well as interests in certain hedge contracts entered into by MV Partners. Immediately thereafter, MV Partners sold 7,500,000 of the Trust units in the offering at a price of $20 per unit and the remaining 4,000,000 pro rata to each of the members of MV Partners at a price of $20 per unit. Immediately following the sale by MV Partners to its members, the members of MV Partners sold in the offering 562,500 Trust units in the aggregate at a price of $20 per unit. On January 31, 2007, the members of MV Partners sold in the offering an additional 562,500 Trust units in the aggregate at a price of $20 per unit.
The net profits interest is passive in nature and the Trustee has no management control over and no responsibility relating to the operation of the underlying properties. The net profits interest entitles the Trust to receive 80% of the net proceeds attributable to MV Partners interest from the sale of production from the underlying properties. The net profits interest will terminate on the later to occur of (1) June 30, 2026 or (2) the time when 14.4 million barrels of oil equivalent have been produced from the underlying properties and sold, and the Trust will soon thereafter wind up its affairs and terminate.
The Trustee can authorize the Trust to borrow money to pay Trust administrative or incidental expenses that exceed cash held by the Trust. The Trustee may authorize the Trust to borrow from the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee as a lender provided the terms of the loan are similar to the terms it would grant to a similarly situated commercial customer with whom it did not have a fiduciary relationship. The Trustee may also deposit funds awaiting distribution in an account with itself and make other short term investments with the funds distributed to the Trust.
4
The preparation of financial statements requires estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Trustee believes such information includes all the disclosures necessary to make the information presented not misleading. The information furnished reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of the Trustee, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim period presented. The financial information should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Trusts Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.
Note 3Trust Accounting Policies
The Trust uses the cash basis of accounting to report Trust receipts of the term net profits interest, receipts under the hedge and other derivative contracts and payments of expenses incurred. The term net profits interest is revenues (oil, gas and natural gas liquid sales net of any payments made in connection with the settlement of the hedge and other derivative contracts) less direct operating expenses (lease operating expenses, lease maintenance, lease overhead, and production and property taxes) and an adjustment for lease equipment cost and lease development expenses (which are capitalized in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles) of the underlying properties times 80% (term net profits interest percentage). In addition, the Trust will be entitled to receive 80% of all payments received by MV Partners upon settlement of the hedge and other derivative contracts. Actual cash receipts may vary due to timing delays of actual cash receipts from the property operators or purchasers and due to wellhead and pipeline volume balancing agreements or practices. The actual cash distributions of the Trust will be made based on the terms of the conveyance creating the Trusts net profits interest, which is on a cash basis of accounting. Expenses of the Trust, which include accounting, engineering, legal and other professional fees, Trustee fees, an administrative fee paid to MV Partners and out-of-pocket expenses, are recognized when paid. Under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, revenues and expenses would be recognized on an accrual basis. Amortization of the investment in net profits interest is recorded on a unit-of-production method in the period in which the cash is received with respect to such production; therefore, a statement of cash flows is not presented. Such amortization does not reduce distributable income, rather it is charged directly to Trust corpus.
This comprehensive basis of accounting other than generally accepted accounting principles corresponds to the accounting permitted for royalty trusts by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission as specified by Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 12:E, Financial Statements of Royalty Trusts.
Investment in the net profits interest is recorded initially at the historical cost of MV Partners and is periodically assessed to determine whether its aggregate value has been impaired below its total capitalized cost based on the underlying properties. The Trust will provide a write-down to its investment in the net profits interest to the extent that total capitalized costs, less accumulated depreciation, depletion and amortization, exceed undiscounted future net revenues attributable to the proved oil and gas reserves of the underlying properties.

(1) Per terms of the net profits interest, lease equipment and development costs are to be deducted when calculating the distributable income to the Trust.
(2) Per terms of the net profits interest, MV Partners can reserve up to $1.0 million for future expenditures at any time.
(3) The cash proceeds received by the Trust are based upon the cash receipts from MV Partners, LLC for the oil and gas production subsequent to July 1, 2006 and collected by December 31, 2006. The revenues from oil production are typically received one month after production, thus the cash received by the Trust during the quarter ended March 31, 2007 substantially represents the production by MV Partners from July 2006 through November 2006.
The Trust is a Delaware statutory Trust and is not required to pay federal or state income taxes. Accordingly, no provision for federal or state income taxes has been made.
Note 7Distributions to Unitholders
The Trustee determines for each quarter the amount available for distribution to the Trust unitholders. This distribution is expected to be made on or before the 25th day of the month following the end of each quarter to the Trust unitholders of record on the 15th day of the month following the end of
6
each quarter (or the next succeeding business day). Such amounts will be equal to the excess, if any, of the cash received by the Trust during the preceeding quarter, over the liabilities of the Trust paid during such quarter, subject to adjustments for changes made by the Trustee during such quarter in any cash reserves established for future liabilities of the Trust.
The first distribution was $1.0122 per Trust unit and was made on February 23, 2007 to Trust unit holders owning Trust units as of February 15, 2007. This distribution consisted of an amount in cash paid by MV Partners equal to the amount that would have been payable to the Trust had the net profits interest been in effect during the period from July 1, 2006 through December 31, 2006. Furthermore, this cash payment included 80% of all amounts paid to/by MV Partners from/to hedge contract counterparties for settlements related to the period from July 1, 2006 to December 31, 2006.
The second quarterly distribution was $0.533344609 per Trust unit and was made on April 25, 2007 to Trust unit holders owning Trust units as of April 16, 2007. Such distribution included the net proceeds of production collected by MV Partners from January 1, 2007 through March 31, 2007, including all hedge contract settlements.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following review of the Trusts financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto. The Trust was formed on August 3, 2006. The conveyance of the net profits interest, however, did not occur until January 24, 2007. As a result, the Trust did not recognize any income or make any distributions during the year ended December 31, 2006. The Trusts first quarterly distribution that was paid on February 23, 2007 consisted of an amount in cash paid by MV Partners equal to the amount that would have been payable to the Trust had the net profits interest been in effect during the period from July 1, 2006 through December 31, 2006.
The Trust does not conduct any operations or activities. The Trusts purpose is, in general, to hold the net profits interest and the assigned interest in the hedge contracts, to distribute to the Trust unitholders cash that the Trust receives in respect of the net profits interests and the assigned interest in the hedge contracts and to perform certain administrative functions in respect of the net profits interest and the Trust units. The Trust derives substantially all of its income and cash flows from the net profits interest and the hedge contracts.
Results of the Operations for the Quarter Ended March 31, 2007
Excess of revenues over direct operating expenses and lease equipment and development costs from the underlying properties was $15,692,301 for the period from July 1, 2006 through December 31, 2006. Included in this amount are payments to settle hedge and other derivatives totaling $1,578,486. In addition, amounts received to settle hedge and other derivatives was $519,948 for the period from July 1, 2006 through December 31, 2006, which resulted in a total cash receipts over cash disbursements of $16,212,249. The Trusts net profits interest (80%) of this total was $12,969,799, and was reduced by a reserve for future capital expenditures of $1,000,000, resulting in the income from net profits interest and hedge and other derivative activities of $11,969,799. The Trusts net profits interest represents the cash proceeds received by the Trust, which is based upon the cash receipts from MV Partners, LLC for the oil and gas production subsequent to July 1, 2006 and collected by December 31, 2006. The revenues from oil production are typically received one month after production, thus the cash received by the Trust during the quarter ended March 31, 2007 substantially represents the production by MV Partners from July 2006 through November 2006. The Trustee has reserved $263,590 for future Trust expenses and paid general and administrative expenses of $65,909 for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, which resulted in distributable income of $11,640,300, or $1.0122 per unit.
Excess of revenues over direct operating expenses and lease equipment and development costs from the underlying properties was $6,583,190 for the period from January 1, 2007 through March 31, 2007. In addition, amounts received to settle hedge and other derivatives was $458,639 for the period from January, 1, 2007 through March 31, 2007, which resulted in total cash receipts over cash disbursements of $7,041,829. The Trusts net profits interest (80%) of this total was $5,633,463, and was increased by application of the reserve for future capital expenditures of $500,000, resulting in income from net profits interest and hedge and other derivative activities of $6,133,463 for the quarter ending June 30, 2007.
The average price received for crude oil sold was $61.98 per Bbl while the average price received for natural gas sold was $5.10 per Mcf for the period from July 1, 2006 through December 31, 2006.
8
The average price received for crude oil sold was $55.06 per Bbl while the average price received for natural gas sold was $5.62 per Mcf for the period from January 1, 2007 through March 31, 2007.
The overall production sales volumes collected attributable to the 80% net profits interest which is for the oil and gas production subsequent to July 1, 2006 and collected before December 31,2006 were 341,894 Bbls of oil, 34,304 Mcf of natural gas and 2,383 Bbls of natural gas liquids for a total equivalent barrels of oil of 349,160.
The overall production sales volumes collected attributable to the 80% net profits interest which is for the oil and gas production collected during the period from January 1, 2007 through March 31, 2007 were 183,099 Bbls of oil, 18,458 Mcf of natural gas and 948 Bbls of natural gas liquids for a total equivalent barrels of oil of 186,792.
The April 2007 distribution of net profits was impacted by production curtailment during the first quarterly payment period affecting the underlying properties as the result of severe winter storms that severely impacted western Kansas and eastern Colorado. The snow and ice associated with these storms disabled electrical power to the affected underlying properties for an extended period of time and rendered some properties inaccessible. Significant snow accumulations, along with ice and subsequent melting, created difficult working conditions that have extended the curtailment period. It is currently estimated that production from the underlying properties of approximately 32,000 to 36,000 net barrels of oil has been deferred as the result of curtailment due to the storms during the first quarter. Most of the production curtailed as a result of these storms was restored by the end of March 2007, and the storm effects on production from the underlying properties should be greatly reduced during the second quarterly payment period.
The April 2007 distribution of net profits was also impacted by the inclusion of lease maintenance and development costs billed in December 2006. Such costs were included in the calculation of the April 2007 distribution because of the cash method of accounting.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Other than Trust administrative expenses, including any reserves established by the trustee for future liabilities, the Trusts only use of cash is for distributions to Trust unitholders. Administrative expenses include payments to the Trustee as well as an annual administrative fee to MV Partners pursuant to an administrative services agreement. Each quarter, the Trustee determines the amount of funds available for distribution. Available funds are the excess cash, if any, received by the Trust from the net profits interest, payments from the hedge contracts and other sources (such as interest earned on any amounts reserved by the Trustee) that quarter, over the Trusts liabilities 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 Trusts liability. If the Trustee borrows funds, the Trust unitholders will not receive distributions until the borrowed funds are repaid.
Income to the Trust from the net profits interest is based on the calculation and definitions of gross proceeds and net proceeds contained in the conveyance.
9
As substantially all of the underlying properties are located in mature fields, MV Partners does not expect future costs for the underlying properties to change significantly as compared to recent historical costs other than increases due to increases in the general cost of oilfield services.
The Trust does not have any transactions, arrangements or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or persons that could materially affect the Trusts liquidity or the availability of capital resources.
Hedge and Derivative Contracts
The revenues derived from the underlying properties depend substantially on prevailing crude oil and, to a lesser extent, natural gas and natural gas liquid 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 MV Partners can economically produce. MV Partners sells the oil, natural gas and natural gas liquid production from the underlying properties under floating market price contracts each month. MV Partners has entered into the hedge and other derivative contracts to reduce the exposure of the revenues from oil production from the underlying properties from 2007 through 2010 to fluctuations in crude oil prices and to achieve more predictable cash flow. However, these contracts limit the amount of cash available for distribution if prices increase. The hedge and other derivative contracts consist of fixed price swap contracts and costless collar arrangements that have been placed with major trading counterparties who MV Partners believes represent minimal credit risks. MV Partners cannot provide assurance, however, that these trading counterparties will not become credit risks in the future.
The crude oil swap contracts and costless collar arrangements will settle based on the average of the settlement price for each commodity business day in the contract month. In a swap transaction, the counterparty is required to make a payment to MV Partners for the difference between the fixed price and the settlement price if the settlement price is below the fixed price. MV Partners is required to make a payment to the counterparty for the difference between the fixed price and the settlement price if the settlement price is above the fixed price. In a collar arrangement, the counterparty is required to make a payment to MV Partners for the difference between the fixed floor price and the settlement price if the settlement price is below the fixed floor price. MV Partners is required to make a payment to the counterparty for the difference between the fixed ceiling price and the settlement price if the settlement price is above the fixed ceiling price. Neither party is required to make a payment if the settlement price falls between the fixed floor and ceiling prices. From April 1, 2007 through December 31, 2010, MV Partners crude oil price risk management positions in swap contracts and collar arrangements are as follows:

MV Partners has agreed to convey to the Trust 80% of all proceeds that it receives upon settlement of the hedge contracts. There are certain risks associated with this conveyance in the event that MV Partners becomes involved as a debtor in bankruptcy proceedings. See Risk FactorsIf the financial position of MV Partners degrades in the future, MV Partners may not be able to satisfy its obligations to the Trust in the Trusts Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. In addition, the aggregate amounts paid by MV Partners on settlement of the hedge contracts will be deducted from the gross proceeds available for payment to the Trust under the net profits interest. See BusinessComputation of Net ProceedsNet Profits Interest also contained in the Trusts Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.
Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this Form 10-Q, including without limitation the statements under Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are forward-looking statements. Although MV Partners advised the Trust that they believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements contained herein are reasonable, no assurance can be given that such expectations will prove to have been correct. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations (Cautionary Statements) are disclosed in this Form 10-Q and in the Trusts Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, including under the section Item 1A. Risk Factors. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to the Trust or persons acting on its behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the Cautionary Statements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
The only assets of and sources of income to the Trust are cash and the net profits interest, which generally entitle the Trust to receive 80% of the net proceeds from oil and gas production from the underlying properties, and the Trusts interest in the hedge contracts, which generally entitle the Trust to receive 80% of any proceeds received by MV Partners from the settlement of certain hedges in existence on January 24, 2007. Consequently, the Trust is exposed to market risk from fluctuations in oil and gas prices. For more information regarding the hedge contracts, please see Managements Discussion and Analysis and Results of OperationHedge and Derivative Contracts in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.
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 SECs rules and regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Trust is accumulated and communicated by MV Partners to The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee of the Trust,
12
and its employees who participate in the preparation of the Trusts 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 Trustees disclosure controls and procedures. Mike Ulrich, as Trust Officer of the Trustee, has concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures of the Trust are effective.
Due to the contractual arrangements of (i) the Trust agreement and (ii) the conveyance of the net profits interest, the Trustee relies on (A) information provided by MV Partners, including historical operating data, plans for future operating and capital expenditures, reserve information and information relating to projected production, and (B) conclusions and reports regarding reserves by the Trusts independent reserve engineers. See Item 1A. Risk Factors The Trust and the public trust unitholders have no voting or managerial control with respect to MV Partners, the operator of the underlying properties. As a result, public trust unitholders have no ability to influence the operation of the underlying properties in the Trusts Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, and Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation in the Trusts Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, for a description of certain risks relating to these arrangements and reliance on information when reported by MV Partners to the Trustee and recorded in the Trusts results of operation.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. During the quarter ended March 31, 2007, there has been no change in the trustees internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the trustees 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 MV Partners.
13
There have not been any material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in the Trusts response to Item 1A. to Part 1 of its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.
