As previously announced, preliminary approval for settlement of all cases involving disputed waterbottoms between the Company and the State of Louisiana was granted by the Mineral and Energy Board of the State of Louisiana during its meeting held on July 14, 2010. The settlement involves sharing the funds with the State of Louisiana deposited in the various concursus accounts on a proportional basis which has been negotiated between representatives of the State and the Company. Subsequently, during its October 13th meeting, the Mineral and Energy Board approved the settlement agreements which were then executed by all the parties. We are awaiting disbursement of funds by the St. Bernard Parish Clerk of Courts. BLMC will receive slightly more than $5.5 million from this settlement with additional funds to be disbursed to the Biloxi Marsh Lands 1 Royalty, LLC, 50196, LLC and Lake Eugenie Land & Development, Inc. We anticipate that the disbursements will take place prior to the end of 2010. For more information on the disputes between the Company and the State of Louisiana, please refer to our website: www.biloximarshlandscorp.com

As of September 30, 2010 the combined gross daily production rate from six wells operated by the Company’s mineral Lessees was approximately 12.3 million cubic feet (mmcf) with net daily production accruing to the Company of approximately 1.78 mmcf. Combining this daily natural gas production with the Company’s proportional share of the daily production from the B&L wells makes the total net daily production accruing to the Company as of September 30, 2010 approximately 4.3 mmcfe (natural gas and equivalents).
As of September 30, 2010 B&L’s net interest of wells were producing at a combined daily rate of approximately 3.03 mmcfe. During the last quarter the Lake Eugenie Land & Development, Inc. No. 1 well was placed on compression to increase and stabilize its flow rate. In addition to the current producing wells, B&L is participating in the drilling of additional wells in Louisiana during the fourth quarter of 2010.

B&L was organized as a limited liability Company (LLC) under the laws of Louisiana in July of 2006. B&L’s Class A members are BLMC and Lake Eugenie Land & Development, Inc. (LKEU), which have membership percentages of 75% and 25% respectively. The Operating Agreement was amended on November 16, 2009 to create a Class B membership to allow for certain future projects at the discretion of the board of managers to be participated by either Class A or Class B members or a combination of the respective Classes. B&L’s Class B members are BLMC and LKEU, which have membership percentages of 90% and 10% respectfully.

In regards to the Deep Water Horizon drilling rig explosion and resulting BP oil spill.
We are thankful that the spill has been stopped and the company’s property is no longer threatened by a continued oil leak. As of the date of this release, it appears very little if any of BLMC’s property was contaminated with oil from the spill.

William B. Rudolf, President and CEO, commented: “With the litigation with the State of Louisiana nearly behind us, we are prepared to focus our efforts on strategies designed to hopefully increase the Company’s asset base and hopefully lead to increased production from our fee based land and off-property assets.”
