Other Events. Royalty Purchase On January 14, 2005, Mexco Energy Corporation issued a news release to announce that the Company purchased for $550,000 partially developed royalty interests. The majority of the wells are located in Freestone and Limestone Counties, Texas and operated by Anadarko Petroleum, XTO, and Devon Energy. These properties contain 71 producing wells and an additional nine (9) permitted and/or drilling wells in the Cotton Valley formation. This acreage contains approximately 83 potential undeveloped locations, which are principally Cotton Valley infill wells. This purchase furthers the primary goal of the Company acquiring natural gas reserves.
