Trust expenses for the second quarter of fiscal 2017 decreased 6.51%, or $15,294, to $219,707 from $235,001 in the second quarter of fiscal 2016 due to decreased legal costs resulting from the prior completion of the examination and review of the pricing proposal put forth by the operating companies and the incorporation of the resulting details in the amendments to the royalty agreements.

Total royalty income received during the first six months of fiscal 2017 declined in comparison to fiscal 2016 due to lower gas prices, lower gas sales and lower average exchange rates under both the Mobil and the OEG Agreements.  The comparison of the relevant periods is shown below.
