INTEREST AND OTHER INCOME

NOTE K — INTEREST AND OTHER INCOME

During the third quarter of 2013, the Company reviewed its practice regarding the amounts of post-production costs that could be charged to royalty owners in the Wilmington Townlot Unit. The Company evaluated these post-production costs and the applicable amounts that could be charged to royalty owners under the terms of the lease agreements. The analysis resulted in a decision by management to charge additional amounts as compared to past practices and, additionally, to recapture amounts applicable to prior periods. This decision resulted in a non-recurring adjustment of $5.3 million during the quarter, which was recorded in Interest and Other Income.
