3 GENERAL THE TRUST Organization. Marine Petroleum Trust ("Marine") is a royalty trust created in 1956 under the laws of the State of Texas. Marine is not permitted to engage in any business activity inasmuch as it was organized for the sole purpose of providing an efficient, orderly, and practical means for the administration and liquidation of rights to payments from certain oil and gas leases in the Gulf of Mexico, pursuant to license agreements and amendments thereto between Marine's predecessors and Gulf Oil Corporation ("Gulf"). As a result of various transactions that have occurred since 1956, the Gulf interests now are held by Chevron Corporation ("Chevron"), Elf Acquitane, Inc. ("Elf"), and their assignees. The indenture pursuant to which Marine was created (the "Indenture"), provides that the corporate trustee is to distribute all cash in Marine, less an amount reserved for the payment of accrued liabilities and estimated future expenses, to unitholders of record on the 28th day of September, December, March and June of each fiscal year. If the 28th falls on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, the distribution is payable on the immediately preceding business day. The Indenture also provides that the term of the royalty trust created thereby will expire on June 1, 2001 unless extended by the vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding units of beneficial interest. See "Unitholder Voting Matters." Marine's wholly-owned subsidiary, Marine Petroleum Corporation ("MPC"), holds title to interests in properties subject to Marine's interests that are situated offshore of Louisiana. Ninety-eight percent of all oil, gas, and other mineral royalties collected by this subsidiary are paid to Marine. MPC, like Marine, is prohibited from engaging in a trade or business and does only those things necessary for the administration and liquidation of its properties. Marine's only industry segment or purpose is the administration and collection of royalties. Royalties. Marine's rights are generally referred to as overriding royalty interests in the oil and gas industry, and are sometimes referred to herein as such. All production and marketing functions are conducted by the working interest owners of the leases. Revenues from the overriding royalties are paid to Marine either (i) on the basis of the selling price of oil, gas and other minerals produced, saved and sold, or (ii) at the value at the wellhead as determined by industry standards, when the selling price does not reflect the value at the wellhead. The contracts creating these interests were entered into between predecessors of Marine and Gulf, and relate to two different types of interests. One type of interest is an overriding royalty interest equal to three-fourths of 1% of the value at the well of any oil, gas, or other minerals produced and sold. Marine's overriding royalty interest applies only to existing leases and does not apply to new leases. The second interest is Marine's 32.6% equity interest in Tidelands Royalty Trust "B" ("Tidelands"), a separate Texas trust, which owns similar interests in any oil, gas, or other mineral lease acquired by Gulf and/or its transferees and assignees in a 1,370,000-acre area (divided into 60 tracts) of the Gulf of Mexico during a 50-year period ending April 30, 2001. Tidelands' interest in each tract consists of (i) a production payment, which reverts to an overriding royalty, on oil and gas and (ii) an overriding royalty on other minerals. The production payment is payable out of 12.5% of the value at the well of oil and gas produced and sold from leases on a subject tract until Tidelands has earned $1,500,000 on such tract. The production payment then reverts to an overriding royalty interest equal to approximately 4.17% of the value at the well of oil and gas sold from the tract. Tidelands' overriding royalty interest on minerals other than oil and gas is payable at the rate of 4.17% of the value of such minerals sold from the property. Marine, through its ownership of units of beneficial interest in Tidelands, derives a 32.6% interest in the production payments and overriding royalties of Tidelands. Presently, the leases subject to Marine's interests cover 277,913 gross acres (including Tidelands' interest in 27,312 leased acres). These leases will remain in force until the expiration of their respective terms. Leases may be voluntarily released by the working interest owner after all oil and gas reserves are produced. They may also be abandoned by the working interest owner due to failure to discover sufficient reserves to make development economically worthwhile. In addition, the federal government may force termination if the working interest owner fails to fully develop a lease once it is acquired. 4 For the year ended June 30, 1999, approximately 25% of Marine's royalty revenues were attributable to the sale of oil and approximately 75% were attributable to the sale of natural gas. The royalty revenues received by Marine are affected by seasonal fluctuations in demand and by changes in the market price for oil and gas. Royalty revenue received by Marine from Chevron and from Pennzenergy Exploration and Production Company ("Pennzenergy") accounted in the aggregate for approximately 76%, 85%, and 81% of Marine's royalty revenue for the years ended June 30, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. In addition, Marine's revenue from its equity interest in Tidelands accounted for approximately 10%, 15%, and 8% of Marine's revenue for the years ended June 30, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Tidelands has reported that royalty revenues from Burlington Resources, Chevron and Pennzenergy accounted for a substantial portion of Tidelands' royalty revenue for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996. Marine derives no revenues from foreign sources and has no export sales. Trust Functions. Marine is administered by officers and employees of its Trustee, Bank of America, N.A. MPC employs one individual (its president, treasurer and director) to perform certain management, financial and administrative services for Marine. Except for this individual, all officers and directors of MPC serve without compensation. See "Management and Principal Unitholders." MPC leases office space in Dallas, Texas to provide work space and record storage for Marine, MPC, Tidelands and Tidelands' wholly-owned subsidiary corporation, Tidelands Royalty "B" Corporation. The cost of this office facility is shared by all four of these entities in proportion to each entity's gross income to the total of such income of all entities. The ability of Marine to receive revenues is entirely dependent upon its entitlement to its rights with respect to the leases held by Chevron and its assignees in the Gulf of Mexico (as more fully described in "Properties" below). Moreover, no revenues are payable to Marine until sales of production commence from any such lease. The royalty interests held by Marine are depleting with each barrel of oil and mcf of natural gas produced. No funds are reinvested by Marine; thus, these depleting assets are not being replaced. PROPERTIES General. Marine is not engaged in oil and gas operations, although its income is based upon such operations of others. Marine's income is derived from contracts that provide for payments in the nature of overriding royalties made to Marine based on oil and gas sales from certain leases in the Gulf of Mexico. Reserves. Marine is not engaged in the production of crude oil or natural gas. Its income is derived from overriding royalty payments which are carved out of working interests in oil and gas leases in the Gulf of Mexico. Marine does not have the engineering data necessary to make an estimate of proved oil and gas reserves (nor the present value of future net cash flows from such reserves), and is not entitled to receive such data from the owners of the working interests from which Marine's interest is derived. See also "Difficulty in Obtaining Certain Data" below. Since Marine does not have access to this reserve information, Marine is unable to compute the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows therefrom. Marine did not file any reports during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1999 with any federal authority or agency with respect to oil and gas reserves. 2 5 Production. Information regarding the net quantities of oil and gas produced with respect to Marine's interests (including its equity in Tidelands) for each of the last three fiscal years as well as the average sales price per unit of oil and gas produced, upon which payments to Marine are based, is set forth in the following table:
YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, ----------------------------- 1999 1998 1997 ------- ------- ------- Quantity Oil (in barrels ("bbls"))........................... 61,738 62,588 74,556 Gas (in thousand cubic feet ("mcf"))................ 999,049 754,143 997,454 Average Price Oil (per bbl.)...................................... $12.38 $15.72 $21.31 Gas (per mcf)....................................... $1.92 $2.56 $2.39
Information about average production cost (lifting cost) per unit of production has been omitted due to its unavailability and inapplicability to Marine. For more recent information regarding prices, see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" below. Productive Wells. Based on the latest information available to Marine and including its equity interest in Tidelands, there were approximately 323 wells subject to Marine's interests actually producing at some time in calendar 1998, some of which contained multiple completions. During calendar 1998, approximately 133 wells produced oil and approximately 190 wells produced gas. Most of the oil wells also produced associated gas and most of the gas wells produced condensate, which is economically the equivalent of oil. See "Difficulty in Obtaining Certain Data" below. Drilling Activity. Information concerning wells drilled and completed in which Marine had an interest (including its equity interest in Tidelands) for each of its last three fiscal years is set forth below: WELLS COMPLETED

- --------------- * "Suspended" wells are completed wells the classification of which had not been reported at the relevant date. Information regarding net wells or acres is not included since Marine does not own any working interests. 3 6 Lease Acreage. Marine has an overriding royalty interest (including by virtue of its equity interest in Tidelands) in 73 different oil and gas leases covering 277,913 gross acres. These leases are located in the Central and Western areas of the Gulf of Mexico off the coasts of Louisiana and Texas. This acreage is presented in the following table:
LEASES GRANTED BY (1): PRODUCING ---------------------- --------- United States............................................... 272,383 State of Texas.............................................. 640 State of Louisiana.......................................... 4,890 ------- 277,913 =======
- --------------- (1) Leases are typically granted for a term of five years, during which the lease owner must establish a commercial production capability, or the lease expires. There are 9,305 acres located on leases that have commercial production, but the production is not on Marine's overriding royalty area within those leases. The overriding royalty interest owned by Marine is a fractional interest out of total oil and gas sold, and is free and clear of all operating costs. The actual percentage interest in a lease attributable to Marine's interest varies from lease to lease. The acreage weighted average percentage interest attributable to Marine's interest in all of these leases is .5792%. Present Activities. Published reports indicate that 3 wells are being drilled on tracts in which Marine has an interest. Marine also understands from published reports that plans are being made to begin drilling on 18 additional wells. The U.S. Department of the Interior conducted a lease sale for the Gulf of Mexico in April and August, 1999. Chevron did not bid on any tracts included in this sale that are located in the 1,370,000 acre area subject to the Tidelands contract (in which Marine has a 32.6% equity interest.) Difficulty in Obtaining Certain Data. Marine's only activities are the collection and distribution of revenues from overriding royalties on certain oil and gas leases in the Gulf of Mexico, pursuant to purchase agreements between Marine's predecessors and Gulf and its transferees. The leasehold working interests which are subject to the rights held by Marine are owned, in most cases, in whole or in part by Chevron, or other oil and gas exploration and production companies. Certain information as to reserves, availability of oil and gas, average production cost (lifting cost) per unit, undeveloped acreage, net wells and net acres, etc., with respect to the particular leases subject to Marine's interests lies solely within the knowledge of these concerns. Engineering data, if any, regarding these leaseholds would have been compiled principally by or for the working interest owners of these leaseholds and Marine believes that it will not be provided access to such information. Because of this, it appears that unreasonable efforts and expense would be involved in seeking to obtain all of the information required under Item 102 of Regulation S-K and Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Industry Guide 2. LEGAL MATTERS Neither Marine nor MPC, nor any of their respective properties (exclusive of properties owned by Chevron and subject to the Marine and Tidelands license agreements), is a party to or subject to any material pending litigation as of the date hereof. UNITHOLDER VOTING MATTERS No matter was submitted by Marine during the year ended June 30, 1999 to a vote of unitholders, whether through the solicitation of proxies or otherwise. Following the filing of this Annual Report with the SEC, the unitholders will be asked to approve an amendment to the Trust Indenture to extend the life of the trust 20 years beyond the current expiration date of June 1, 2001. 4 7 Unitholders owning ten percent (10%) or more of the outstanding units may at any time direct the Trustee to conduct an investigation to determine whether the Trustee is receiving all revenues properly accruing to Marine's trust estate. The Trustee may be removed by unitholders owning a majority of the outstanding units. The unitholders owning eighty percent (80%) of the outstanding units may amend and modify the Trust Indenture or any contract, agreement or undertaking which constitutes a part of the trust estate, but no such amendment may change the nature of the trust from that of a purely ministerial trust, nor can there be any change in the rights or responsibilities of the Trustee without its consent. However, no such change shall be made with respect to any amendment to the Indenture if the Trustee shall receive written objection from any unitholder within 20 days from the date of mailing to the unitholders of the first notice of the proposed consent. Each unitholder has the right to examine, inspect and audit all records relating to the trust estate. Marine is to continue until June 1, 2001, or until such later date as holders of the units owning a majority of the outstanding units may designate, but in any event, not more than 20 years from such designation. Alternatively, instead of so extending the term of Marine, the holders of the units owning a majority of the outstanding units may direct the Trustee to create one or more corporations to receive and hold the trust estate, or any portion thereof, unless the Trustee shall have received written objection from any unitholder within 20 days from the date of mailing to the unitholders of the first notice of the proposed consent. However, the unitholders owning eighty percent (80%) of the outstanding units may terminate the trust on any date, whether earlier or later than any such date determined as above, as they may specify. Upon termination of the trust (other than by the transfer of all the trust estate to a corporation pursuant to the provisions of the Indenture, as described above), the Trustee, after paying all of the obligations of the trust, shall transfer to an agent appointed by the holders of the units owning a majority of the outstanding units, by recordable assignments but without warranty, the interests in the trust estate. Prior to termination of the trust, no unitholder shall have any legal title in or to any of the properties comprising the trust estate nor the right to secure any partition thereof. FINANCIAL MARKET AND INVESTOR INFORMATION The units of beneficial interest in Marine trade on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market under the symbol MARPS. Distributions of cash are made to unitholders quarterly. The following table presents the range of high and low trade prices by quarter for the past two years as reported by Nasdaq Online. The per unit amount of cash distributed to unitholders for each of these quarters is also presented in the table.

6 9 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Capital Resources and Liquidity. Because of the nature of Marine as a trust entity, there is no requirement for capital; its only obligation is to distribute to unitholders the net income actually collected. As an administrator of oil and gas royalty properties, Marine collects income monthly, pays expenses of administration, and disburses all net income collected to its unitholders each quarter. Marine's Indenture (and the charter and by-laws of MPC) expressly prohibits the operation of any kind of trade or business. Marine's oil and gas properties are depleting assets and are not being replaced due to the prohibition against these investments. These restrictions, along with other factors, allow Marine to be treated as a grantor trust; thus all income and deductions, for tax purposes, should flow through to each individual unitholder. Marine is not a taxable entity. Results of Operations. Marine's income consists primarily of oil and gas royalties and is based on the value at the well of its percentage interest in oil and gas sold without reduction for any of the expense of production. Value at the well for oil is the purchasers' posted price at its receiving point onshore, less the cost of transportation from the offshore lease to the onshore receiving point. In general, value at the well is determined on the basis of the selling price of oil, gas and other minerals produced, saved and sold, or at wellhead prices determined by industry standards, where the selling price does not reflect value at the well. Summary Review. Marine's net income for the year ended June 30, 1999 amounted to $3,084,449 ($1.54 per unit) as compared to $2,980,458 ($1.49 per unit) in the previous year. These results include $514,000 and $137,474 realized in fiscal 1999 and 1998, respectively, from reduction of accounts payable as discussed in a following paragraph. Oil production was down approximately 3% and gas production was up approximately 20%. The average price received for oil dropped from $15.72 in fiscal 1998 to $12.38 in the current fiscal year. The average price for gas decreased to $1.92 in the current fiscal year from $2.56 realized in fiscal 1998. Income from Marine's equity interest in Tidelands amounted to $328,085 in the current fiscal year and in the previous year it was $461,095. Income from Tidelands contributed approximately 10% of Marine's royalty income for the current year. The following table shows the royalty income, the net quantities sold, and the average price received for oil and gas during the past three years including Marine's equity interest in Tidelands and excluding the $514,000 and $137,474 realized in 1999 and 1998 respectively from the reduction of the previously established accounts payable for possible royalty over-payments that management no longer deemed required.

Marine's revenues are derived from the oil and gas production activities of unrelated parties. Marine's revenues and distributions fluctuate from period to period based upon factors beyond Marine's control, including without limitation the number of leases bid on and obtained by parties subject to Marine's interests, the number of productive wells drilled on leases subject to Marine's interests, the level of production over time from such wells and the prices at which the oil and gas from such wells is sold. Marine believes that it will continue to have revenues sufficient to permit distributions to be made to unitholders for the foreseeable 7 10 future, although no assurance can be made regarding the amounts thereof. The foregoing sentence is a forward-looking statement. Factors that might cause actual results to differ from expected results include reductions in prices or demand for oil and gas, which might then lead to decreased production; reductions in production due to depletion of existing wells or disruptions in service, including as the result of storm damage, blowouts or other production accidents, and geological changes such as cratering of productive formations; expiration or release of leases subject to Marine's interests; and the discontinuation by parties subject to Marine's interests of their efforts to obtain leases in the Royalty Area. Marine's business consists solely of the collection of royalty payments, the payment of expenses and the distribution of remaining amounts to unitholders. Marine (through its subsidiary, Marine Petroleum Corporation) owns only one personal computer, which is used by Marine for certain accounting and general business functions. Marine believes that the computer and the software used thereon are Year 2000 compliant. Marine does not own or lease any other assets containing imbedded computer chips, the failure of which would have a material adverse effect on Marine. Important aspects of Marine's operations are conducted by third parties. These include the production and sale of oil and gas and the calculation and payment of royalty payments to Marine, which are conducted by oil and gas companies that lease tracts subject to Marine's interests. Similarly, Marine's distributions are processed and paid by The Bank of New York as the agent for the trustee of Marine. Any disruption of Marine's operations that results from Year 2000 problems of these third parties could have a material adverse effect on Marine. Marine does not have access to information that would permit Marine to determine the status of these third parties' efforts to analyze and address Year 2000 issues. Marine intends to continue to monitor these parties' public announcements and disclosure regarding Year 2000 issues, and to seek direct assurances where appropriate, in an effort to ensure that these parties address Year 2000 issues that could adversely affect Marine. Marine has inquired of certain of these parties regarding their Year 2000 compliance efforts. Marine's subsidiary, Marine Petroleum Corporation, has provided an account payable of $244,250 at June 30, 1999 to cover possible refunds that may be required upon redetermination of gas prices for royalty payments in prior periods. During the most recent fiscal year, Marine Petroleum Corporation determined that $514,000 of the previously-established account payable for possible royalty overpayments no longer was required. Accordingly, during the most recent fiscal year, Marine Petroleum Corporation reduced accounts payable, and increased net income by such amount. Oil and Gas Royalties -- 1999 and 1998: During fiscal 1999, Marine received, exclusive of its interest in Tidelands, 25% of its royalty income from the sale of oil and 75% from the sale of natural gas. Income from such oil and gas royalties in fiscal 1999 increased 10% from fiscal 1998. Oil royalties, exclusive of Marine's interest in Tidelands, during fiscal 1999 ($721,782) were 24% less than oil royalties received in fiscal 1998 ($947,656). Natural gas royalties, exclusive of Marine's interest in Tidelands but including $514,000 realized from the reduction of accounts payable which is discussed in the "-- Summary Review" above, during fiscal 1999 ($2,118,772) were 30% more than natural gas royalties received in fiscal 1998 ($1,629,470). Interest Income -- 1999 and 1998. Marine's interest income decreased 2% during fiscal 1999 to $97,929 from the $99,915 earned in fiscal 1998, due primarily to an increase in invested funds held for distribution. Equity in Tidelands -- 1999 and 1998. Marine owns beneficially 32.6% of the outstanding units of beneficial interest in Tidelands. In fiscal 1999, Marine realized income of $328,085 from its interest in Tidelands, a decrease of 29% from the $461,095 earned in fiscal 1998. Oil and Gas Royalties -- 1998 and 1997: During fiscal 1998, Marine received approximately 37% of its royalty income from the sale of oil and 63% from the sale of natural gas. Income from such oil and gas royalties in fiscal 1998 decreased approximately 29% from fiscal 1997. 8 11 Oil royalties, exclusive of Marine's interest in Tidelands, during fiscal 1998 ($947,656) were 39% less than oil royalties received in fiscal 1997 ($1,544,131), due to a decrease in the quantity of oil sold and a decrease in the average price received for oil sold. Natural gas royalties, exclusive of Marine's interest in Tidelands, during fiscal 1998 ($1,629,470) were 22% lower than natural gas royalties received in fiscal 1997 ($2,100,873). The decrease was due to the combination of a decrease in the quantity of natural gas sold and an increase in the price received. Interest Income -- 1998 and 1997. Marine's interest income during fiscal 1998 decreased to $99,915 from the $100,705 earned in fiscal 1997, due primarily to a decrease in average funds invested. Equity in Tidelands -- 1998 and 1997. Marine realized income of $461,095 during fiscal 1998 from its interest in Tidelands, an increase of 44% from the $319,251 earned in fiscal 1997. Pursuant to Tidelands' agreement with Chevron (as successor to Gulf's interests), should Chevron acquire a lease or leases on any specified tracts in the Gulf of Mexico before April 30, 2001, and oil or gas is produced or sold, Chevron will make production payments to Tidelands in an amount equal to 12.5% of the value of the oil and gas sold until the sum of $1,500,000 has been paid on the tract. Thereafter, Tidelands' interest will be converted to an overriding royalty and such payments will equal 4.17% of the value of the oil and gas sold as long as the lease exists. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK At June 30, 1999, Marine did not have any market risk exposure with regard to any activities in derivative financial instruments, other financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments.

See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements. 15 18 MARINE PETROLEUM TRUST AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS THREE YEARS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 (1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (a) General The Marine Petroleum Trust ("Trust") was established on June 1, 1956 with the transfer of property to the Trust consisting of certain contract rights, units of beneficial interest and common stock in exchange for units of beneficial interest in the Trust. The contract rights entitled the Trust to receive a .0075 overriding royalty interest in oil, gas and other mineral leasehold interests acquired by Gulf Oil Corporation, now Chevron U.S.A., Inc. ("Chevron"), a subsidiary of Chevron Corporation, in certain areas of the Gulf of Mexico prior to January 1, 1980. Substantially all royalty revenue is received from Chevron. The Trust must distribute all income, after paying its liabilities and obligations, to the unitholders during the months of March, June, September and December each year. It cannot invest any of its money for any purpose and cannot engage in a trade or business. A Louisiana trust can only exist for a short period of time; therefore, the unitholders assigned their contract rights off-shore of Louisiana to Marine Petroleum Corporation reserving a 98% net profits interest to themselves. The net profits interest contract was transferred to the Trust along with the other properties. The Trust is authorized to pay expenses of the Corporation should it be necessary. The Trust is to continue until June 1, 2001, or until such later date as holders of the units owning a majority of the outstanding units may designate, but in any event, not more than 20 years from such designation. Alternatively, instead of so extending the term of the Trust, the holders of the units owning a majority of the outstanding units may direct the Trustee to create one or more corporations to receive and hold the trust estate, or any portion thereof, unless the Trustee shall have received written objection from any unitholder within 20 days from the date of mailing to the unitholders of the first notice of the proposed consent. However, the unitholders owning eighty percent (80%) of the outstanding units may terminate the trust on any date. (b) Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the Trust and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Marine Petroleum Corporation. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. (c) Producing Oil and Gas Properties At the time the Trust was established, no determinable market value was available for the assets transferred to the Trust; consequently, nominal values were assigned. Accordingly, no allowance for depletion has been computed. All income from oil and gas royalties relate to proved developed oil and gas reserves. (d) Undistributed Income The Trust indenture agreement provides that the corporate trustee is to distribute all cash in the Trust, less an amount reserved for the payment of accrued liabilities and estimated future expenses, to unitholders of record on the 28th day of March, June, September and December of each year. If the 28th falls on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, the distribution is payable on the immediately preceding business day. Undistributed income includes $785,532 and $743,519 applicable to the subsidiary corporation at June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. 16 19 MARINE PETROLEUM TRUST AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) THREE YEARS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 (e) Federal Income Taxes No provision has been made for Federal income taxes on the Trust's income since such taxes are the liability of the unitholders. Federal income taxes have been provided on the income of the subsidiary corporation, excluding the 98% net profits interest to be distributed to the Trust and deducting statutory depletion. (f) Credit Risk Concentration and Cash Equivalents Financial instruments which potentially subject the Trust and its wholly-owned subsidiary to concentrations of credit risk are primarily investments in cash equivalents and receivables. The Trust and its wholly-owned subsidiary place their cash investments with financial institutions or companies that management considers credit worthy and limit the amount of credit exposure from any one financial institution or company. The Trust has not experienced significant problems collecting its receivables in the past. The Trust and its wholly-owned subsidiary had cash equivalents of $1,640,570 and $1,885,861 at June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively, which consisted of money market accounts and money market mutual funds. For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Trust considers all investments with initial maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. (g) Statements of Cash Flows The Trust's wholly-owned subsidiary made Federal income tax payments of $4,815, $7,049, and $13,792 during the years ended June 30, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. (h) Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Trust and its wholly owned subsidiary define the fair value of a financial instrument as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. The carrying value of cash equivalents, oil and gas royalties receivable, receivables from affiliates, accounts payable, and taxes payable approximate fair value because of the short maturities of those instruments. (i) Use of Estimates Management of the Trust and its wholly-owned subsidiary has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Actual results could differ from those estimates. (j) Income Per Unit The Trust adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share" during 1998. Adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the calculation of income per unit. Income per unit is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of units of beneficial interest outstanding during the period. (k) Significant Royalty Sources Royalty revenue received by Marine from Chevron and from Pennzenergy Exploration and Production Company accounted in the aggregate for approximately 76%, 85% and 81% of Marine's royalty revenue for the years ended June 30, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. 17 20 MARINE PETROLEUM TRUST AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) THREE YEARS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 (2) INVESTMENT IN AND RECEIVABLES FROM AFFILIATE -- TIDELANDS ROYALTY TRUST "B" At June 30, 1999 and 1998, the Trust owned 32.63% of the outstanding units of interest in Tidelands Royalty Trust "B" ("Tidelands"). The 452,366 units owned by the Trust had a quoted market value of $2,233,557 and $2,827,288 at June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The Trust and Tidelands share certain common costs which are allocated based on their respective net revenues. The investment in affiliate is accounted for by the equity method. The following summarizes changes in this account for 1999 and 1998:
1999 1998 -------- --------- Balance at beginning of year................................ $306,670 $ 285,478 Equity in earnings of affiliate............................. 328,085 461,095 Distribution of earnings.................................... (312,685) (439,903) -------- --------- Balance at end of year...................................... $322,070 $ 306,670 ======== =========
At June 30, 1999 and 1998, receivables from affiliate includes $68,212 and $104,523, respectively, of income distributable to the Trust as a Tidelands unitholder. The following summary financial statements have been derived from the unaudited consolidated financial statements of Tidelands. BALANCE SHEETS ASSETS

Tidelands is a registrant with the Securities and Exchange Commission and has filed a Form 10-K as of December 31, 1998. (3) OVERPAID ROYALTIES The Trust's subsidiary, Marine Petroleum Corporation, has a remaining account payable of $244,250 at June 30, 1999 to cover possible refunds that may be required upon redetermination of gas prices for royalty payments in prior periods. During fiscal years 1999 and 1998, Marine Petroleum Corporation determined that $514,000 and $137,474, respectively, of the previously-established account payable for possible royalty overpayments no longer was required. Accordingly, during these fiscal years, Marine Petroleum Corporation reduced accounts payable, and increased net income by such amounts. (4) SUMMARY OF QUARTERLY FINANCIAL DATA (UNAUDITED) The following quarterly financial information for fiscal year 1999 and 1998 is unaudited; however, in the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to a fair statement of the results of operations for the interim periods have been included.
