Chief Judge

Honorable Joseph H. McKinley, Jr., Chair

Judicial Conference of the United States

Committee on Financial Disclosure

One Columbus Circle, N.E.

Washington, D.C. 20544

Response to Committee Letter Dated

July 25, 2013-PetroEdge Energy/EQT

Production—2012 Calendar Year Filing

Dear Judge McKinley:

I am writing in response to your July 25, 2013 letter to me regarding Part VII, page 6,

lines 48 and 49 of my 2012 calendar year filing of my financial disclosure. However, the

disclosure statement items you question are actually set forth on lines 50 and 51 of my copy of

my financial disclosure which has set forth on line 50 “Lease O & G :

acres, Harrison Cty,

WV-PetroEdge Energy” and line 51 “Lease O & G

acres, Mannington Dist., WV-EQT

Prod.”

Your are correct that these leases were not in my prior year financial disclosure reports.

However, the instructions in your letter and the filing instructions are not useful or helpful. In

point of fact, they do not cover the type of transaction involved with the leases with PetroEdge

Energy and EQT Production. This is due to the fact that both leases were entered into by the

Trust in 2012. Thus, they are not leases that were previously owned and exempt from disclosure

Likewise, the leases were not reportable through an exempt transaction such as an inheritance, a

marriage, or a gift from a family member, or upon an event which does not constitute a

reportable transaction. Likewise and during the reporting period, these leases were not

purchased, sold, redeemed, distributed, or otherwise within the terms set forth in Column D(1).

All that occurred was that two new leases were entered into by the Trust in 2013 for factional

interests in minerals located in West Virginia for which no production of oil or gas has ever

occurred. The income information set forth in the respective column B locations on the financial

disclosure were received and are accurate.
