3 To Present and Former Unitholders: This tax information reporting booklet is intended to provide accurate and authoritative information required for Unitholders to determine the federal and state taxable income relating to ownership of Units in the Santa Fe Energy Trust (the Trust) during It is being mailed to all persons who appeared on the trustee s records as Unitholders at any time during As such, the information provided herein may be relied upon only by Unitholders appearing on the trustee s records for the Trust for This booklet is prepared for use by individuals who are citizens or residents of the United States. Accordingly, it has limited application to corporations and persons subject to special federal income tax treatment, such as taxexempt entities and foreign persons. This information is provided by Santa Fe Snyder Corporation (formerly Santa Fe Energy Resources Inc.) and the trustee with the understanding that neither Santa Fe Snyder Corporation nor the trustee is engaged in rendering legal, accounting or other professional service. Therefore, Unitholders should consult their own tax advisor with respect to their particular circumstances. The date of acquisition or sale of your Units determines which worksheets in this booklet should be used. Worksheet 1 should be used by Unitholders who purchased their Units in the initial offering on November 19, 1992 and held such Units through December 31, Worksheet D should also be completed. The resulting amounts are reportable on Form 1040, U.S. Individual Income Tax Return, on the lines indicated. Worksheet 2 should be used by Unitholders who acquired Units after the initial offering. In addition, Worksheet 2 should be used by any Unitholder who sold Units during Worksheets A through E should also be completed. The resulting amounts are reportable on Form 1040, U.S. Individual Income Tax Return, on the lines indicated. Worksheet F is provided to assist Unitholders in determining the appropriate amounts to be reported for state income tax purposes. You may have received Form 1099s related to one or more types of income generated by the Trust. Except as provided in this booklet, do not use the information reported on the Form 1099s for tax purposes. Instead, use the worksheets contained in this booklet to correctly calculate and report 1999 taxable income amounts related to the Trust. A computer software version of this reporting package was developed to aid Unitholders in obtaining and determining their tax information. The Trust will calculate for you the tax information related to your units for the current year and each year that you held them with the relevant information that you provide. For Unitholders who purchased their Units prior to 1999, this software version calculates reportable amounts based on the respective reporting booklets for those years. The calculations in this version assume that in prior years, reportable amounts calculated by the Unitholders were pursuant to the directions provided in the Tax Information i

4 Booklets and that the information submitted to the trust by the Unitholder is accurate and complete. If you should request this service from the trustee, the information generated is intended to help you determine your tax liability and not to render professional advice. Moreover, the tax information generated does not take into account your other particular tax attributes and tax circumstances. Accordingly, you should consult your own advisor regarding the determination of the actual tax implication of your ownership of Trust Units prior to the preparation of your income tax returns. If you would like to take advantage of this resource, please send a postcard to the following address: Santa Fe Energy Trust P. O. Box 4717 Houston, Texas You will need to include your name, address and tax identification number on the postcard. In addition, you will need to include the following information for each separate purchase and sale of a block of Units: - date of each such purchase - purchase price paid in each such purchase, including commissions - number of Units purchased in each such purchase - number of Units sold in each such sale, if any - sales price received in each such sale, if any - date of each such sale, if any If you have any questions concerning this booklet or the software version, please call (713) Chase Bank of Texas, N.A.

5 GENERAL INFORMATION 1

6 GENERAL INFORMATION 1. Reporting of Income and Deductions (a) Direct Ownership Reporting. Each Unit consists of an interest in the Santa Fe Energy Trust and an interest in a U.S. Treasury Obligation. The Santa Fe Energy Trust (the Trust) is classified as a Grantor Trust for federal income tax purposes. Unitholders are taxed on their share of the Trust s income and expenses. Unitholders are also taxed on their share of the original issue discount income attributable to the Treasury Obligations. The Trust reports its income and expenses on the cash basis of accounting using a calendar year. The Trust makes quarterly cash distributions to Unitholders of record on each quarterly record date. Taxable income is allocated to Unitholders receiving distributions. Income and expenses attributable to the assets of the Trust and Treasury Obligations should be taken into account by the Unitholders consistent with their method of accounting and without regard to the taxable year or accounting method employed by the Trust. Worksheets and instructions are provided, beginning at page 7, to help you calculate your appropriate share of income and expenses to be reported to the IRS. (b) Types and Reporting of Trust Income and Deductions. (i) Royalty Income - The Trust holds royalty interests in oil and gas properties in 12 states. Royalty income is received by the Trust quarterly. Table 1 reports the amount of royalty income for each Unit held for the period indicated. You may have received a Form MISC reporting royalty or miscellaneous income. If you received a Form MISC, the income amount may not be correct since such amount may not equal your allocable share of the Trust s income and deductions. Compute the correct income to report on your tax return by completing the appropriate schedules in this package. (ii) (iii) Ad Valorem Taxes - Ad Valorem Taxes are reported in Table 2 for each Unit held for the period indicated. Production Payments - The Trust generates interest income from the production payments associated with certain properties. Under a production payment, the Trust is treated as having made a mortgage loan to Santa Fe Snyder Corporation. Each payment made to the Trust with respect to these properties is treated first as consisting of a payment of interest to the extent deemed accrued. This interest income is reported in Table 3. The excess is a principal payment and is reported in Tables 5A and 5B. 2

7 (iv) Original Issue Discount - Unitholders are required to report Original Issue Discount (OID) attributable to the Treasury Obligations as taxable income. OID is generally the difference between the purchase price of the Treasury Obligation and its maturity value, allocated to the period the obligation is outstanding. The amount of OID reported to you on Form OID (the reportable OID ) has been calculated in accordance with IRS Regulations which assume the Treasury Obligations were purchased at original issue. Since the Trust did not purchase the Treasury Obligations at original issue, the amounts shown in Box 1 of the Form OID you received is not the correct amount to include in taxable income. Compute the correct taxable OID to report on your tax return by completing the appropriate schedules in this package. (v) Reporting OID Income - OID income is reported on line 8a, Form You must attach Schedule B, Interest and Dividend Income, which supports the amount shown on line 8a of Form 1040, since you wil be reporting OID different than the amounts shown on Form OID. Complete Worksheet B to determine your taxable OID. To properly report OID, record separately the full amount of OID shown on each Form OID you received on Part I, line 1, of Schedule B. (A) If taxable OID is less than the amount shown on the Form 1099s: 1) Subtotal all interest income listed on the Form 1099s, 2) Below the subtotal, write OID Adjustment and show the OID you are not required to report, and 3) Subtract that OID amount from the subtotal and enter the result on line 2. (B) If taxable OID is greater than the amount shown on the Form 1099s: 1) Subtotal all interest income listed on the Form 1099s, 2) Below the subtotal, write OID Adjustment and show the additional OID, and 3) Add that OID amount to the subtotal and enter the result on line 2. (vi) Administrative Expenses - Administrative expenses paid by the Trust are reported in Table 4. 3

8 (c) (d) Purchase Price Allocation. By acquiring Trust Units, Unitholders are deemed for tax purposes to have purchased a direct interest in the Treasury Obligations and the Trust assets. Unitholders are required to allocate their purchase price among the Treasury Obligations and each of the assets of the trust based on the relative fair market value of such interests. Worksheet A is provided to assist in such an allocation for Units purchased in For Unitholders who purchased Units in prior years, the purchase price has already been allocated in a previous reporting booklet. Please note that a copy of Worksheet A should be maintained in your permanent tax records for use in the event Units are sold. Gain/Loss on Units Sold. Each Unitholder will realize gain or loss on the sale or exchange of Units measured by the difference between the amount realized and the adjusted basis for each Unit. For federal income tax purposes, the sale of a Unit will be treated as a sale by the Unitholder of the direct interest in the Treasury Obligations and each of the properties of the Trust. Therefore, gain or loss must be calculated for the interest in the Trust and Treasury Obligations separately. Gain or loss realized by a Unitholder who is not a dealer and has held the Units for more than one year will be treated as long-term capital gain or loss, except to the extent of depletion recapture amounts for the Net Profits Royalties (which will be treated as ordinary income). Gain or loss on Units held for less than one year, except to the extent of depletion recapture amounts for the Net Profits Royalties, will be treated as short-term capital gain or loss. Worksheet E is provided to assist in the calculation of gains or losses on the sale of Units. Gains and losses attributable to the Treasury Obligations will generally be reported on Schedule D of Form With respect to the Trust, gains to the extent of depletion recapture will be reported on Form Losses and gain in excess of depletion recapture will generally be reported on Schedule D of Form See the instructions for Schedule D of Form 1040 and the instructions for Form 4797 for further information on proper reporting. (e) Tax Shelter Registration. The Trust has registered with the IRS as a tax shelter and the IRS has issued the Trust a tax shelter registration number which is set forth below. You must report the registration number (as well as certain other information) on IRS Form 8271, which must then be attached to the return on which you claim any income, deduction, loss, credit or other tax benefit. The tax shelter registration number issued to the Trust is Issuance of the tax shelter registration number does not indicate that this investment or the claimed tax benefits have been reviewed, examined or approved by the IRS. 2. Computation of Depletion Unitholders should determine their depletion allowance by taking the greater of cost or percentage depletion allowable. 4

9 (a) (b) Percentage Depletion. The Trustee and its tax advisors have estimated the percentage depletion for 1999 and it appears that cost depletion will exceed percentage depletion for all Unitholders. Therefore, the Trust will not provide percentage depletion information for The Trustee will continue to calculate percentage depletion and will provide such information at the time that percentage depletion exceeds the cost depletion attributable to a Unit. Cost Depletion. Unitholders who acquired their Units in the initial offering on November 19, 1992 and owned such Units through December 31, 1999 need not compute cost depletion. The amount has been computed and is shown on Worksheet 1 (on a per Unit basis). All other Unitholders should utilize Worksheet C to calculate the appropriate amount of depletion. In calculating the depletion amount, Worksheets A and D will also be required. The depletion factors were obtained by dividing production for the year by beginning of the year reserves. 3. Reconciliation of Net Income and Cash Distributions The difference, if any, between the per Unit taxable income for the year and the per Unit cash distributions is reconciled in the section at the bottom of Worksheets 1 and 2. The reconciling items consist of items which are not currently deductible, such as increases in cash reserves established by the Trustee and certain expenses, and items which are not currently taxable, such as decreases in cash reserves and the principal portion of the production payments received. In addition, items which are included in taxable income or loss which have no cash impact are also reconciling items. This latter category includes the OID income recognized on the Treasury Obligations and the cost depletion deduction. 4. Adjustments to Basis Worksheet D has been provided to assist each Unitholder in tracking basis in the Units owned. Basis is increased by the amount of taxable OID interest income recognized by the Unitholder. Basis is decreased (not below zero) by the amount of depletion claimed and the amount of principal payments received from the production payment loans. Basis is also adjusted by other miscellaneous items as indicated on Worksheet D. 5. Portfolio Income Royalty income is generally considered portfolio income under the passive activity rules. Therefore, Unitholders holding Units as an investment should not consider the taxable income from the Trust to be passive income in determining net passive income or loss. Unitholders should consult their tax advisors for further information regarding the passive activity rules. 6. Administrative Expenses Expenses of the Trust will include administrative expenses of the Trustee. Such expenses should be claimed as a deduction on Schedule E of Form 1040 as noted in Worksheets 1 and 2. 5

10 7. State Income Tax Returns Revenues from the Trust are from sources located in various states. A Unitholder may be required to file state income tax returns and/or to pay taxes in those states imposing income taxes. Unitholders may be subject to penalties for failure to comply with such requirements. Worksheet F has been provided to assist Unitholders in meeting state income tax filing requirements in each of these states. Unitholders should consult their tax advisors regarding state income tax filing requirements. 6

21 WORKSHEET C Depletion Calculation Worksheet Complete the following formula to calculate cost depletion per Unit on the Net Profits Royalties. For Units purchased during 1999, the Depletable Basis (per Unit) of your Net Profits Royalties equals the amount on Worksheet A, page 14, line 1 for the "Allocated FMV" column. For Units purchased prior to 1999, the Depletable Basis (per Unit) of your Net Profits Royalties will equal the amount reflected in the prior year s Tax Information Reporting Booklet, Worksheet D, page 18, line 7, column 2 as the Depletable Basis (per Unit) of the Net Profits Royalties. The cost depletion factor (per Unit) is then calculated by multiplying the Depletable Basis (per Unit) by the applicable Cost Depletion Rate from the table below. The result should be entered on Worksheet 2, page 12, line 6, in the factor column. This worksheet is required for EACH block of Units purchased and/or sold. COST DEPLETION DEPLETABLE RATE COST DEPLETION BASIS (SEE TABLE FACTOR (PER UNIT) BELOW) (PER UNIT) X = For Unit Purchased On/ After Cost Depletion Rates Per Unit Last Date Prior to December 31 That Unit Was Held in 1999 But Not Later Than Feb. 16 May 17 Aug. 16 Nov. 15 Nov. 19, 1992 Feb. 16, Feb. 17, 1999 May 17, May 18, 1999 Aug. 16, Aug. 17, 1999 Nov. 15, Nov. 16, 1999 Dec. 31, 1999* * Holders of record for Units purchased during this period received no cash distribution and, therefore, receive no allocation of taxable income, other than OID on the Treasury Obligations. 17

22 WORKSHEET D Basis in Trust Unit/Treasury Obligations Complete the following schedule to determine your basis per Unit in the Treasury Obligation and Trust. Follow the instructions for each line item as indicated. If a Unitholder bought and/or sold Units at multiple times throughout 1999, Worksheet D will be required for EACH block of Units purchased and for EACH block sold at different times. This schedule should be completed each year for each block of Units purchased as the information is required in the event of sale.
