Schedule A
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Board of Directors
AMEN Properties, Inc.
Midland, Texas
We have audited the accompanying Combined Statements of Revenues and
Direct Operating Expenses of the Oil and Gas Properties Purchased from
Santa Fe Energy Trust (the “Trust”) and Devon Energy Production Company,
L. P. (“Devon”), as defined in Note 1, by AMEN Properties, Inc. (the
“Company”) on December 17, 2007, for each of the two years in the period
ended December 31, 2007. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these combined financial statements based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the combined financial statements are
free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor
were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over
financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal
control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s
internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no
such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
As disclosed in Note 2, the accompanying combined financial statements
are prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations
of the Securities and Exchange Commission for inclusion in Form 8-K of
AMEN Properties, Inc. and are not intended to be a complete financial
presentation of the results of operations of the acquired oil and gas
properties described above.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the revenues and direct operating
expenses of the oil and gas properties purchased from the Trust and
Devon, for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2007
in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America.

AMEN PROPERTIES, INC.
NOTES TO COMBINED STATEMENTS OF
REVENUES AND
DIRECT OPERATING EXPENSES OF THE
OIL
AND GAS PROPERTIES PURCHASED FROM
SANTA FE ENERGY TRUST AND
DEVON ENERGY PRODUCTION COMPANY, L.P.
On November 8, 2007, AMEN Minerals, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of
AMEN Properties, Inc. (collectively, the “Company”), entered into
Purchase Agreements with Santa Fe Energy Trust (the “Trust”) and Devon
Energy Production Company, L. P. (“Devon”) to acquire the Trust’s net
profits interests and Devon’s working and royalty interests
(collectively, the “Acquired Properties”) in oil and gas properties in a
number of different states effective October 1, 2007 for a total
purchase price of $56 million, subject to customary closing
adjustments. Subsequently, both the Trust Purchase Agreement and the
Devon Purchase Agreement were amended to add an independent third party
(the “Third Party”) as the purchaser of approximately one-half of the
Trust’s net profits interest and Devon’s royalty interests of the
Acquired Properties.
The closing for the acquisition occurred on December 17, 2007. After
all closing adjustments were applied and $27 million was paid by the
Third Party for their portion of the Acquired Properties, the Company’s
net purchase price for its portion of the Acquired Properties was $30.1
million. The Company instructed the Trust and Devon to convey its
portion of the Acquired Properties into two new entities: the royalty
interests were conveyed to SFF Royalty, LLC and the working interests
were conveyed to SFF Production, LLC (collectively, the “SFF Group”) .
In exchange for contributing $10 million in capital, the Company
received a one third ownership interest in the SFF Group. The remaining
ownership in the SFF Group is divided amongst the acquisition investment
group proportionately based on the percentage of capital provided. The
investment group and management group of the new entities includes two
of the Company’s Directors, Eric Oliver and Jon Morgan. Additionally,
the two new entities have entered into a management agreement with
Anthem Oil and Gas, Inc. to manage the interests in exchange for
compensation equal to 5% of the gross proceeds. One of the Company's
directors, Jon Morgan, is the president of Anthem Oil and Gas.
Further detail on the assets conveyed into SFF Royalty and SFF
Production is shown below:

BASIS FOR PRESENTATION
|
The Acquired Properties are owned by SFF Royalty and SFF Production and
reflected in the financial statements of those entities. The Company
does not control the SFF Group and has no direct ownership of the
Acquired Properties and does not consolidate the financial statements of
the SFF Group into its financial statements. Rather, the Company
accounts for its investment in the SFF Group using the equity
method. The accompanying combined statements of direct revenues and
direct operating expenses reflect approximately one-third of the
Acquired Properties owned by the SFF Group, which is representative of
the Company’s ownership position in those entities.
Prior to the acquisition, the Trust properties were owned by Devon,
subject to a 90% net profits interest owned by the Trust. All Trust
revenue and expenses were accounted for by Devon. In accordance with
SAB 47, the Trust’s financial statements were prepared on a cash basis
of accounting. During the periods presented, the Devon acquired
interests were not accounted for or operated as a separate division.
Certain Devon costs, such as depreciation, depletion and amortization
(“DD&A”), general and administrative expenses and corporate income taxes
were not allocated to the Devon acquired properties. Devon accounts for
its oil and gas activities using the full cost method. Full separate
financial statements for the Acquired Properties prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States do
not exist and are not practicable to obtain in these circumstances.
Accordingly, the accompanying statements include only revenues and
direct operating expenses applicable to the Acquired Properties and are
prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission for inclusion in Company’s Form
8-K and are not intended to be a complete financial presentation of the
acquired oil and gas properties described in Note 1 above. The Company
does not have information for the financing and investing activities
from the Acquired Properties.
The Company’s historical balance sheet for the year ended December 31,
2007 includes the Company’s portion of the adjusted purchase price of
$30.1 million. The Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations for
the period ended December 31, 2007 included the Company’s share of the
earnings generated by the SFF Group’s ownership of the Acquired
Properties from December 17 through December 31.
The accompanying Combined Statements of Revenue and Direct Operating
Expense are presented on the accrual basis of accounting. Direct
operating expenses include lease operating expense, severances taxes and
ad valorem taxes. DD&A, general and administrative expenses and
corporate income taxes have been excluded for the reasons discussed
above. The oil and gas industry, as with other extractive industries, is
a depleting one that is not always constant with respect to production
streams and each barrel of oil equivalent produced must be replaced or
the critical source of revenue and cash flows will shrink. Past results
are not necessarily indicative of future results. For reasons including
those noted, the financial statements and other information presented
herein are not indicative of the financial condition or results of
operations of the Acquired Properties going forward or indicative of
results had the acquisition been consummated in the periods presented.

OIL AND GAS RESERVES - UNAUDITED
|
Proved reserves are estimated quantities of oil and natural gas which
geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to
be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing
economic and operating conditions. Proved developed reserves are proved
reserves that can reasonably be expected to be recovered through
existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods. Proved oil
and natural gas reserve quantities and the related discounted future net
cash flows before income taxes (see Standardized Measure) for 2007 are
based on estimates prepared by Ryder Scott Company. Such estimates have
been prepared in accordance with guidelines established by the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Reserve studies were not available
for 2006, and the reserve quantities and related discounted future net
cash flows for that period were estimated based on the Ryder Scott
reserve estimates for 2007 and historical production volumes obtained
from Devon.
There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of
proved reserves and projecting future rates of production. The following
estimated quantities of proved oil and natural gas reserves and changes
in net proved reserves of the Acquired Properties represent estimates
only and should not be construed as being exact.

|
Future cash flows are computed by applying fiscal year-end prices of oil
and natural gas to year-end quantities of proved oil and natural gas
reserves. For 2007, future operating expenses and development costs were
computed primarily by Ryder Scott by estimating the expenditures to be
incurred in developing and producing the proved oil and natural gas
reserves at the end of year, based on year-end costs and assuming the
continuation of existing economic conditions.
A discount factor of 10 percent was used to reflect the timing of future
net cash flows. The Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash
Flows is not intended, nor should it be interpreted, to represent the
replacement cost or fair market value of the Acquired Properties’ oil
and natural gas reserves, anticipated future changes in prices and
costs, a discount factor more representative of the time value of money
and the risks inherent in reserve estimates of oil and natural gas
producing operations.
Since reserve studies were not available for 2006, the Standardized
Measure was computed in the following manner:
-
To compute Future Cash Flows, fiscal year-end prices of oil and
natural gas published by the United States Department of Energy were
applied to year-end quantities of proved oil and natural gas reserves
calculated by adding 2007 production volumes obtained from Devon to
the December 31, 2007 reserve estimates prepared by Ryder Scott.
-
Future Production Costs were computed by applying the ratio of Future
Production Costs to Future Cash Flows found in the 2007 Ryder Scott
estimate to Future Cash Flows for 2006, the effect of which is to
assume that production costs were approximately the same at 12/31/06
as at 12/31/07.
-
The 10% Discount for Timing was computed by applying the discount
factor used in the 2007 Ryder Scott estimate to the Future Net Cash
Inflows for 2006.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED
CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Background
The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial
statements and related notes have been prepared to show the effect of
the acquisition of oil and gas interests from Santa Fe Energy Trust (the
“Trust”) and Devon Energy Production Company, L. P. (“Devon”) and the
financing thereof.
On November 8, 2007, AMEN Minerals, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of
AMEN Properties, Inc. (collectively, the “Company”), entered into
Purchase Agreements with the Trust and Devon to acquire the Trust’s net
profits interests and Devon’s working and royalty interests
(collectively, the “Acquired Properties”) in oil and gas properties in a
number of different states effective October 1, 2007 for a total
purchase price of $56 million, subject to customary closing adjustments
(the “Acquisition”). Subsequently, both the Trust Purchase Agreement
and the Devon Purchase Agreement were amended to add an independent
third party (the “Third Party”) as the purchaser of approximately
one-half of the Trust’s net profits interests and Devon’s royalty
interests of the Acquired Properties.
The closing for the Acquisition occurred on December 17, 2007. After
all closing adjustments were applied and $27 million was paid by the
Third Party for their portion of the Acquired Properties, the Company’s
net purchase price for its portion of the Acquired Properties was $30.1
million. The Company instructed the Trust and Devon to convey its
portion of the Acquired Properties into two new entities: the royalty
interests were conveyed to SFF Royalty, LLC and the working interests
were conveyed to SFF Production, LLC (collectively, the “SFF Group”) .
In exchange for contributing $10 million in capital, the Company
received a one third ownership interest in the SFF Group. The remaining
ownership of the SFF Group is divided amongst the Acquisition investment
group proportionately based on the percentage of capital provided. The
investment group and management group of the new entities includes two
of the Company’s Directors, Eric Oliver and Jon Morgan. Additionally,
the two new entities have entered into a management agreement with
Anthem Oil and Gas, Inc. to manage the Acquired Properties in exchange
for compensation equal to 5% of the gross proceeds. One of the Company's
directors, Jon Morgan, is the president of Anthem Oil and Gas.
The Company does not control the SFF Group and uses the equity method of
accounting to record its one third interest in the net income (loss) of
the SFF Group.

Production is shown below:

of $6.02 per share. These warrants expire on June 30, 2009 and the
Company intends to use the proceeds from their issuance to pay all or a
portion of the balance of the related promissory notes. No value has
been assigned to these warrants as shareholder approval is required
before the warrants can be exercised.
Stub Financing
In order to secure the cash required for the Company’s contribution to
SFF Royalty and SFF Production on December 17, 2007, stub financing was
arranged via the execution of two promissory notes with SoftVest, LP
totaling $3.5 million. These notes were paid on March 13, 2008. Mr.
Eric Oliver, the Company’s Chairman of the Board, is the Managing
Partner of SoftVest, LP.
Certain of the Company’s Directors participated in this transaction as

Sources of Information and Basis of Presentation
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations
and condensed consolidated balance sheet as of and for the year ended
December 31, 2007 is derived from the audited consolidated financial
statements of AMEN Properties, Inc. for the year ended December 31,
2007, the audited Combined Statement of Revenues and Direct Operating
Expenses for the Acquired Properties for the year ended December 31,
2007 and the adjustments and assumptions described below.
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the notes thereto, our Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, and the Combined
Statements of Revenues and Direct Operating Expenses for the Acquired
Properties included herein as Schedule A. Pro forma data are based on
assumptions and include adjustments as explained in the notes to the
unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements. Certain
information (including substantial footnote disclosures) included in the
annual historical financial statements has been excluded in these
condensed pro forma financial statements. The pro forma data presented
is not necessarily indicative of the financial results that would have
been attained had the Acquisition occurred on January 1, 2007, and
should not be viewed as indicative of operations in future periods.
How the Pro Forma Financial Statements Were Prepared
The pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations for the
year ended December 31, 2007 was prepared without audit assuming we
completed the Acquisition on January 1, 2007.
The Acquired Properties were not accounted for or operated as a separate
division by Devon. Certain costs, such as depreciation, depletion and
amortization (“DD&A”), general and administrative expenses, and
corporate income taxes were not allocated to the individual properties
comprising the Acquired Properties. Full separate financial statements
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States do not exist for the Acquired Properties and are not
practicable to obtain in these circumstances. Therefore, on a historical
basis, the Company is presenting only the revenues and direct operating
expenses for the Acquired Properties. Certain estimates and judgments
were made in preparing the pro forma adjustments as discussed in the
notes. With these adjustments, the pro forma condensed consolidated
statement of operations represents only an estimate of combining our
historical results with our indirect interest in the Acquired
Properties. The statements do not consider nonrecurring items included
in the historical financial statements. The pro forma condensed
consolidated balance sheet was prepared without audit assuming we
completed the Acquisition on January 1, 2007.
No incremental general and administrative costs related to this
acquisition have been included, and general and administrative costs are
expected to increase only minimally, if at all, as a result of the
Acquisition. As a result, a very minimal amount of our internal
resources will be used to oversee the Company’s investment in the SFF
Group (and their ownership of the Acquired Properties) and, accordingly,
we believe that the impact from the Acquisition on our total general and
administrative expenses will be minimal.
The unaudited pro forma financial information is presented for
illustrative purposes and does not purport to present what the Company’s
financial position or results of operations would have been had we
invested in the SFF Group (and it had owned the Acquired Properties) on
the dates indicated. In addition, such information is not necessarily
indicative of the Company’s future results of operations or financial
performance because of the exclusion of certain operating expenses,
changes in commodity prices and other circumstances that may change or
arise in the future. The unaudited pro forma financial information
should be read in conjunction with our historical financial statements
and risk factor disclosure, which are hereby incorporated by reference
herein.
