SUMMARY TERM SHEET

         Set forth below is a summary of the terms of this Offer in question and answer format. The Summary Term Sheet does not describe all of the details of the Offer. We have included in the summary references to the sections of this document where you will find a more complete discussion of each of the topics mentioned in the summary.

Who is offering to buy my securities?

         Jensen Development Company and C.S. Finance L.LC., (the "Offerors") both of which are wholly owned by Gerald L. Jensen ("Mr. Jensen"), President and Chairman of the Board of Croff Enterprises, Inc. Mr. Jensen, together with Jensen Development, beneficially owns approximately 43.4% of Croff's publicly traded common stock and 46.8% of the privately held Preferred B shares, as of December 31, 2004.  The Offerors are deemed to be affiliates of Croff under applicable securities laws and regulations.  See Section 10, "Interest of Directors and Officers; Transactions and Arrangements Concerning Shares; Participation in Offer by Preferred Shareholders," for more information.

What is the class and amount of securities sought in the Offer?

         We are offering to purchase all of the outstanding Preferred B shares of Croff.  Although the Offer is being made to all Preferred B shareholders, we, directly or through our affiliates, already own approximately 47% of the outstanding Preferred B shares, as of December 31, 2004, which shares we will not tender pursuant to the Offer.  We are seeking to purchase up to the remaining balance of 287,468 Preferred B shares, or any lesser number of shares that shareholders properly tender in the Offer. See Section 1, "Terms of Offer; Number of Shares; Price; Expiration Date."  

How much are the Offerors offering to pay for my securities and what is the form of payment?

         We are offering to purchase the Preferred B shares for a cash purchase price of $3.00 per share (the "Purchase Price"). There will be no broker's fees, commissions, or transaction costs, so each shareholder tendering their Preferred B shares will receive $3 per tendered share in the form of a check.  Shareholders whose shares are purchased in the Offer will receive the cash Purchase Price as siib as oracticable after receipt and acceptance of a proper tender of their shares. No interest will be payable on the Purchase Price. See Section 4, "Acceptance For Payment of Shares and Payment of Purchase Price," and Section 1, "Terms of Offer; Number of Shares; Price; Expiration Date," for a more detailed discussion of the Purchase Price.

Do the Offerors have the financial resources to make payment?

         Yes. We have cash on hand of at least $370,000 and have arranged for a line of credit from American National Bank for an additional $500,000, sufficient to fund the purchase of all potential shares. See Section 8, "Source and Amount of Funds," for a more detailed discussion of the source and amount of funds for the transaction.

Is the financial condition of the Offerors relevant to my decision on whether to tender in the Offer?

            No.  Since we have secured sufficient cash to purchase all of the remaining Preferred B shares at the Purchase Price, our financial condition should not be relevant to your decision on whether to tender your shares in the Offer.

How long do I have to tender in the offer?

         You have until 12:00 midnight, Mountain Time on July 29, 2005 (the "Expiration Date"), at which time the Offer will expire unless we decide to extend the offering period.  See Section 1, "Terms of the Offer; Number of Shares; Price Expiration Date," for a more detailed discussion of the offering period and expiration of the Offer.

Can the offer be extended, amended or terminated, and under what circumstances?

            We can extend, amend or terminate the Offer in our sole discretion. If we extend the term of the Offer , we expect that it will be on the same price and other terms as in the initial offering period.  See Section 1, "Terms of the Offer; Number of Shares; Price; Expiration," and Section 14, "Extension of Tender Period; Termination; Amendments," for a more detailed discussion of extension and amendment of the Offer.

We can terminate the Offer under certain circumstances, which include, among other things, the threat or institution of legal proceedings or action by a governmental agency challenging the acquisition of shares pursuant to this tender offer, the threat or passage of any law or regulation which adversely impacts the consummation of the Offer, or the occurrence of any event that has resulted, or may in our reasonable judgment result, in an actual or threatened change in Croff's business. See Section 14, "Extension of Tender Period; Termination; Amendments," for a more detailed description of these and other circumstances under which the offer may be terminated.

How will I be notified if the Offer is extended?

         We will announce any extension either through a press release or other public announcement or a subsequent mailing to the shareholders.  In addition, we have been advised that Croff will post all such announcements or Press Releases on its website at www.croff.com.

Are there any conditions to the Offer?

          One of the conditions to the Offer is that shareholders holding 100 Preferred B shares or less must tender all or none of their shares, while those holding more than 100 shares may tender all or any portion, but not less than 100 shares. All Preferred B shares properly tendered in these amounts and not withdrawn will be purchased at the Purchase Price, on the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer.  For further conditions on the Offer, see Section 5 of the Offer to Purchase.

However, we will not be obligated to purchase any shares if, in our good faith reasonable judgment:

          1. any action or threatened action by any governmental agency or other person is instituted that challenges or otherwise adversely affects our ability to make or complete the tender offer or could, in our sole judgment, materially affect Croff's business; or

          2. Croff experiences a material adverse change in its business conditions (financial or otherwise) during the pendency of the Offer; or

          3. certain other conditions exist, including the threat or passage of any law or regulation which adversely impacts the consummation of the Offer, or the  occurrence of any event that has resulted or may in our reasonable judgment result in an actual or threatened change in our business; or

            4. we determine, in our sole discretion, based upon the information provided by you in your Letter of Transmittal and associated documents, that your sale of your Preferred B shares to us would not be exempt from the registration requirements of the federal and applicable state securities laws; or

5. a third party or Croff announces or makes a tender offer or exchange offer, merger, business combination or other similar transaction involving Croff during the Offer.  See Section 14 for a more detailed discussion of the conditions of this Offer.

How do I tender my shares?

         Shares Held In Your Own Name. If the share certificates are registered in your own name, you should send as soon as possible on or prior to the Expiration Date the following documents to American National Bank, the Depositary for this Offer, in the enclosed envelope, to the address specified on page 1 of the "Letter of Transmittal" enclosed with this Offer:

1.       The stock certificate(s) for the shares being tendered;

2.       A completed and signed Letter of Transmittal; and

3.       A completed and signed "Substitute W-9" (on page 4 of the Letter of Transmittal).

A pre-addressed envelope is enclosed for your convenience. Your signature on the Letter of Transmittal does not  need to be guaranteed by an eligible guarantor institution unless  you completed either of the sections entitled "Special Payment Instructions" or "Special Delivery Instructions" included with the Letter of Transmittal (in which case payment and delivery will not be made to the registered holder) or your signature on the Letter of Transmittal is not exactly as the name of the registered holder(s) appears on the certificate(s) for the shares being tendered.

         Shares Held by Your Broker or Other Nominee. If your shares are registered in the name of a broker or other nominee, you should instruct your broker or other nominee to tender the shares on your behalf. Your broker or other nominee will execute a Letter of Transmittal on your behalf.  See Section 2 for a more detailed discussion of the procedure for tendering shares.

What should I do if my stock certificates have been lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated?

         If your stock certificates have been lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated, you should contact Kelle Thomas at Croff Enterprises, Inc., at 303-383-1555 or kelle@croff.com, immediately to obtain instructions for replacing them or to obtain an Indemnity and Conveyance Agreement acceptable to Offerors without the certificates. This Indemnity and Conveyance Agreement would then be sent to the Depository, with your letter of Transmittal, and the signature guarantee if applicable.

Until what time can I withdraw previously tendered shares?

         You can withdraw shares previously tendered until the earlier of (1) the date the shares are accepted by Offerors for payment, or (2) until 12:00 midnight Mountain Time on July 29, 2005 (the "Expiration Date"). If the Offer is extended beyond that time, you may withdraw your tendered shares at any time until the earlier of (1) the shares are accepted for payment by Offerors, or (2) the expiration of the Offer.

         After the Offer expires, if the Offerors have not yet accepted your shares for payment, you may withdraw shares your previously tendered shares by writing a letter to the Offerors requesting the withdrawal of your shares, which must be received before the check to you is issued and before the expiration of 40 business days from the commencement of the Offer. 

How do I withdraw previously tendered shares?

         You must send a notice containing your name, the number of shares tendered, the number of shares you wish to withdraw and the name of the registered holder to the Depositary, American National Bank, and the Depositary must receive the notice before the time to withdraw shares has expired.

         If you delivered or otherwise identified the certificates to the Depositary, American National Bank, you will need to provide the serial numbers on those certificates and your signature on your withdrawal notice must be guaranteed by an eligible institution, which means a bank, broker, dealer or other firm or entity that is a member in good standing of an approved signature guarantee medallion program.  See section 3.

Will Croff remain a public company after this transaction?

Yes, Croff will remain a public company since this transaction does not affect its common voting shares.  This tender offer is only for the Preferred B shares, which are restricted, non-voting shares, except for voting on matters affecting Croff's oil and gas assets, and excluding the Company's leases in Dewitt County Texas (the "Dewitt Leases") The Preferred B shares have preferential rights, in the event of liquidation, distribution, merger or sale, to the oil, gas and perpetual mineral investments of Croff other than the Dewitt Leases (the "Oil Assets").  The Preferred B shares do not have a priority interest over the Dewitt Leases.  If you tender your shares in this Offer you will receive cash for your Preferred B shares.  The common shares will continue to trade in the over the counter market.  In the future, if we are successful in our plans after this Offer (see Section 7 below), the value of those common shares will be determined by the future prospects of the Company without the Oil Assets, that is, primarily based upon the operation of the Company's Dewitt leases.  On April 8, 2005, Croff announced that its Board of Directors had voted to review Croff's strategic alternatives.  The future value of the Company may depend on what actions the Board takes, such as a merger or acquisition, which are currently unknow and entirely under the Board's control. See Section 7 for more information.

If I decide not to tender, how will the Offer affect my Preferred B shares?

If you decide not to tender, you will be a minority shareholder of the Preferred B shares, while the majority of the Preferred B shares most likely would be held by us and our affiliate, Mr. Jensen.  After the Offer is concluded, we may seek greater control over the Oil Assets and/or attempt to separate the Oil Assets from the other assets of the Company.  In any of these events, there will likely be an even more limited market for the Preferred B shares than there is at present. The Preferred B shares may be worth less based upon being less marketable. You also may have difficulty in selling the shares. In the event of liquidation, distribution, merger or sale of the Oil Assets, the rights and preferences of the Preferred B shares provide that you will be paid your pro rata share of the net asset value of the Oil Assets.  In addition, in the event of certain events such as a merger, which would impact your Preferred B shares, you may have the right under Utah law to dissent to such transaction, or the amount being offered to you in such transaction, and demand payment of the fair value of your Preferred B shares. In the event of such a transaction, we recommend you consult with legal counsel about your rights and whether you have a right to dissent under Utah law. If you are also a common shareholder, as most Preferred B shareholders are, whether or not you tender your Preferred B shares, if we are successful in our efforts to gain control of, and transfer or reorganize the Oil Assets, the Company and the common shareholders will essentially be left with the Dewitt Leases as the principal assets of the Company.  See Section 7 for more information.

Did the Company consider transactions other than the proposed Offer?

            Yes.  Croff considered our initial offer to purchase the Oil Assets in a transaction in which Croff would exchange the net pro rata proceeds of such sale for the Preferred B shares.  However, that proposal was rejected by Croff.  We were advised that if the Company sold the Oil Assets to us and bought back or extinguished the preferred B shares, while distributing the proceeds of such a sale to the shareholders, there would be adverse tax consequences. The Company advised us that its tax basis in many of the Oil Assets is low, and a sale of those assets would result in a substantial tax bill to the Company in the range of hundreds of thousands of dollars. This would have lowered the value of the Oil Assets.  A distribution of sale proceeds to the Preferred B shareholders might also be considered a dividend for income tax purposes, which could have resulted in an ordinary gain to the shareholder, an adverse result which could have cost many shareholders a larger tax on such a transaction.  Offerors believe this Offer is more favorable to the Company and the shareholder seeking a market for the Preferred B shares.

Do Croff insiders or affiliates have any material interest in the transaction?

This Offer is being made by the Offerors, Jensen Development and C.S. Finance Jensen Development Company is currently the largest common and Preferred B shareholder of Croff Enterprises, Inc. In addition, both Offerors are wholly owned by Gerald L. Jensen, the Chairman of the Board and President of Croff. Mr. Jensen, together with Jensen Development, owns approximately 43% of Croff's common stock and approximately 47% of the Preferred B shares, prior to the Offer.  The Offerors are both insiders and affiliates of Croff, either on their own and/or because of their affiliation with Mr. Jensen. As insiders and affiliates, the Offerors may be deemed to have a more extensive knowledge of the Company than an outside shareholder. We believe that the remainder of the Board of Directors, other than Mr. Jensen, constituting a non-management committee of the Board, will approve the Offer when it is considered. We also believe that some of the other directors and officers who hold Preferred B shares will tender their shares in this Offer.  Otherwise, none of the other directors have any interest in this transaction.

Does Croff recommend that I tender in the offer?

         The remainder of the Croff Board of Directors, not including Mr. Jensen, constitution a non-management committee of the board, have authorized the statement below: "The non-management committee unanimously believe that a tender offer is a good alternative, from a financial perspective, for the Croff Preferred B shareholders generally, at this time. The same Directors also unanimously believe that each preferred B shareholder should decide whether or not to tender shares in this Tender Offer based upon their specific situation and investment objectives. Therefore the non-management committee makes no recommendation for or against theis Tender Offer. For your information, each Director on the non-management committee has expressed and inclination to tender all or part of his shares in this Tender Offer." Otherwise, none of the other directors have any interest in the transaction. You must make the decision whether to tender your Preferred B shares, and if so how many shares to tender.

How will I be paid for my shares?

         Checks for all accepted and valid tenders made on or before the Expiration Date will be issued from Offerors' Depository account at American National Bank as promptly as practicable. See Section 4 for additional information on payment for shares.

Will I have to pay taxes if I sell my shares?

         We are not responsible for the manner in which the Company will record the Tender Offer transaction for income tax purposes.  However, the Offerors believe that since the transaction will involve the purchase of securities by the Offerors from various shareholders other than the Company, the transaction will not have an income tax effect on the Company.  The Offerors believe that the transaction will have an income tax effect for those Preferred B shareholders who tender their shares.  Generally, with respect to federal income tax, shareholders who have held their Preferred B shares for over twelve months will be entitled to capital gains treatment on the difference between the cash consideration received and the shareholder's basis in the shares. Since Preferred B shares were issued for no additional consideration in 1996 to all common shareholders on a one for one ratio, the shareholders basis may be zero or an allocation of his common shares basis.  See Section 13 for additional income tax consequences of the Offer. Each shareholder should consult his, her or its own tax advisor as to the particular United States federal, and state, income tax consequences to that shareholder of tendering shares pursuant to the Offer and the applicability and effect of any state, local or foreign tax laws and recent changes in applicable tax laws. 

How will this transaction affect the value of my common shares?

            If this Offer is successful, Offerors will probably control a majority of the Preferred B shares. Offerors may attempt to separate the Oil Assets from the rest of the assets of the Company. The current operations of Croff are almost entirely the Oil Assets. If the Oil Assets are separated from the Company, the only oil and natural gas assets remaining with the common shares are the Dewitt County, Texas leases sold to Tempest Resources, in which the Company has the right to a 25% working interest. The future value of Croff's common shares will depend, in any event, on the strategic direction pursued by the Board of Directors.  The concentration of the Preferred B shares in Offerors may cause a decline in trading and interest in the common shares.  

Who can I talk to if I have questions about the tender offer?

         Questions or requests for assistance or for additional copies of the Offer to Purchase, the Letter of Transmittal or other Tender Offer materials may be directed to the Information Agents, Katie Eisenach at (303) 383-1515, or katie@jenex.net.  Questions addressed to Ms. Eisenach may be forwarded to Gerald L. Jensen for response.    If you have any questions about your Croff shares, you may call Kelle Thomas at Croff Enterprises, Inc. at 303-383-1555 or email kelle@croff.com. Copies of such materials will be furnished promptly at the Offerors' expense. Questions regarding the procedures for tendering your shares can be directed to American National Bank, the Depository for the Offer, at the address and telephone number set forth in the Letter of Transmittal. Questions concerning your shares of Preferred B stock should be directed to Croff Enterprises, Inc.  Shareholders may also contact their local broker, dealer, commercial bank or trust company for assistance concerning the Offer.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

         This Offer to Purchase contains statements that are not historical facts and constitute projections, forecasts or forward-looking statements. In addition, this Offer to Purchase contains information relating to Croff that is based on the beliefs of Offerors, and their affiliates, one of whom (Mr. Jensen) is an executive officer and director of Croff, as well as assumptions made by and information currently available to management of Croff which is known, in whole or in part, by Offerors. When we use words like "believes," "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "estimates," "may," "should" or similar expressions, or when we discuss our strategy or plans, or what we believe to be the strategy and plans of Croff, we are making projections, forecasts or forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of performance. They involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause future results and shareholder value to differ materially from those expressed in these statements.  Many of the factors that will determine these results and value are beyond our ability to control or predict. These statements are necessarily based upon various assumptions involving judgments with respect to the future. These risks and uncertainties include, among others:

SECTION 1.  TERMS OF THE OFFER; NUMBER OF SHARES; PRICE; EXPIRATION DATE

         Number of Shares; Price. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions described herein and in the Letter of Transmittal, we will purchase all of the Preferred B shares issued by Croff Enterprises, Inc. that are validly tendered on or prior to the Expiration Date of the Offer, and not properly withdrawn in accordance with the procedures in Section 3, at a price of $3.00 per share, net to the seller in cash, without interest thereon (the "Purchase Price"). Since we, directly or through our affiliates, already own approximately 47% of the outstanding Preferred B shares, those shares owned by us or our affiliates will not be tendered pursuant to the Offer. There are 540,659 Preferred B shares outstanding, as reported by Croff as of December 31, 2004.  Mr. Jensen and Jensen Development own collectively 253,191 shares.  Thus, the maximum number of Preferred B shares we are seeking in the Offer is 287,468 shares.

Expiration Date. The Offer will expire on the later of 12:00 midnight Mountain Time, on July 29, 2005, or the latest time and date to which the Offer is extended pursuant to Section 14 (the "Expiration Date").

         Right to Extend, Amend or Terminate Offer.  As explained in Section 14, subject to the applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC" or "the Commission"), we have the right, in our sole discretion, to (i) delay acceptance for payment of, or payment for, any shares pending our determination of the seller's qualifications to meet certain requirements necessary to sell the shares to us without a registration statement (see Section 5, Conditions to the Offer) and pending receipt of any regulatory approval specified in Section 12, (ii) extend the period of time the Offer is open, (iii) terminate the Offer, or (iv) amend the terms of the Offer. If we extend the term of the Offer, we expect that it will be at the same Purchase Price and other terms as in the initial offering period.  If we amend the Offer to increase or decrease the price to be paid for the shares, we will provide notice publicly of such an amendment and the Offer will remain open for at least ten business days from, and including, the date that notice of such increase or decrease is first published, sent or given in the manner specified in Section 14. Any such extension, delay, termination, or amendment will be followed as promptly as practicable by public announcement thereof, such announcement in the case of an extension to be made no later than 9:00 a.m., Mountain Time, on the next business day after the previously scheduled Expiration Date. We will promptly notify the Preferred B shareholders of any amendment, extension or other material change in the terms of the Offer by making a public announcement in a manner in compliance with Rule 13e-4(e)(3), promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which would include a press release or subsequent mailing to the shareholders.  We have also been advised that Croff will post any such announcements on its website at http://www.croff.com. See Section 14, "Extension of Tender Period; Termination; Amendments."  We have no present intent to exercise our right to extend or amend the terms of the Offer.

THIS OFFER IS NOT CONDITIONED ON ANY MINIMUM NUMBER OF PREFERRED B SHARES BEING TENDERED.  HOWEVER, THE OFFER IS SUBJECT TO CERTAIN OTHER CONDITIONS.  See Section 5, "Conditions of the Offer."

         Prompt Return of Shares Not Purchased. All Preferred B shares not purchased pursuant to this Offer will be returned to the tendering shareholder at our expense as promptly as practicable following the Expiration Date of the Offer.

         Business Day. For purposes of the Offer, a "business day" means any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or federal holiday and consists of the time period from 12:01 a.m. through 12:00 midnight, Mountain Time.

         Dissemination of Offer. Copies of this Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of Transmittal are being mailed to record holders of Preferred B shares and will be furnished to brokers, banks and similar persons whose names, or the names of whose nominees, appear on the shareholder list or, if applicable, who are listed as participants in a clearing agency's security position listing for subsequent transmittal to beneficial owners of shares.

To prevent United States federal income tax backup withholding equal to 30% of the gross payments made pursuant to the Offer, each tendering shareholder must provide the Depositary with the shareholder's correct taxpayer identification number and certain other information by properly completing the substitute Form W-9 included as page 4 of the Letter of Transmittal. Foreign shareholders, as defined in Section 13, must submit a properly completed Form W-8BEN, which may be obtained from the Depositary. For a discussion of certain federal income tax consequences to tendering shareholders, see Section 13.

         Determinations of Proper Form of Documentation/Validity. All questions as to the form of documents, the number of shares to be accepted and the validity, eligibility, including time of receipt, and acceptance for payment of any tender of shares will be determined by us, in our sole discretion, which determination shall be final and binding on all parties. We reserve the absolute right to reject any or all tenders of shares that we determine are not in proper form or the acceptance for payment of, or payment for, shares that may, in the opinion of our counsel, be unlawful. Offerors also reserve the absolute right to waive any defect or irregularity in any tender of any particular shares, except any defect or irregularity that may, in the opinion of our counsel be unlawful. None of the representatives of Croff, the Depository or any other person is or will be under any duty to give notice of any defect or irregularity in tenders, nor shall any of them incur any liability for failure to give any such notice.

         Proper Delivery to Depository. Certificates for shares together with a properly completed Letter of Transmittal or, and any other documents required by the Letter of Transmittal, must be delivered to American National Bank and not to us.  We assume no obligation to forward to the Depository any Letters of Transmittal or other documents improperly delivered to us.

            Tendering Shareholder's Representation and Warranty that Our Acceptance Constitutes an Agreement.  A tender of shares pursuant to any of the procedures described above will constitute the tendering stockholder's acceptance of and agreement to the terms and conditions of the Offer, as well as the tendering stockholder's representation and warranty to us that (a) the shareholder meets the conditions set forth in Section 5, such  that the sale of the Preferred B shares to us will be exempt from registration under one or more applicable state and federal exemptions from the registration of securities; (b) the stockholder has a "net long position" (as defined in Rule 14e-4 promulgated by the Commission under the Exchange Act) in the shares or equivalent securities at least equal to the shares tendered within the meaning of Rule 14e-4 and (b) the tender of shares complies with Rule 14e-4. It is a violation of Rule 14e-4 for a person, directly or indirectly, to tender shares for that person's own account unless, at the time of tender (including any extensions thereof), the person so tendering (i) has a net long position equal to or greater than the amount of (x) shares tendered or (y) other securities immediately convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for the shares tendered and will acquire the shares for tender by conversion, exchange or exercise and (ii) will deliver or cause to be delivered the shares in accordance with the terms of the Offer.  Rule 14e-4 provides a similar restriction applicable to the tender or guarantee of a tender on behalf of another person. Our acceptance for payment of shares tendered pursuant to the Offer will constitute a binding agreement between the tendering stockholder and the Offerors upon the terms and conditions of the Offer.

SECTION 3.  WITHDRAWAL RIGHTS

         Withdrawal of Tendered Shares. Tenders of shares made pursuant to the Offer may be withdrawn at any time prior to the earlier of (1) acceptance of payment or (2) the Expiration Date. Thereafter, tenders are irrevocable, except that they may be withdrawn after the expiration of 40 business days from the commencement of the Offer, unless previously accepted for payment by us as provided in this Offer to Purchase. If we extend the period of time during which the offer is open, are delayed in purchasing shares or are unable to purchase shares pursuant to the offer for any reason, then, without prejudice to our rights under the Offer, the Depository may, on behalf of us, retain all shares tendered, and the shares may not be withdrawn except as otherwise provided in this Section 3, subject to Rule 13e4(f)(5) under the Exchange Act, which provides that the issuer or affiliate making the tender offer shall either pay the consideration offered, or return the tendered securities, promptly after the termination or withdrawal of the tender offer.

         Withdrawal of Shares Held in Physical Form. Tenders of shares made pursuant to the Offer may not be withdrawn after the Expiration Date, except that they may be withdrawn after the expiration of 40 business days from the commencement of the offer, unless accepted for payment by us as provided in this Offer. For a withdrawal to be effective prior to that time, a shareholder of shares held in physical form must provide a written, telegraphic or facsimile transmission notice of withdrawal to the Depository at its address set forth in the Letter of Transmittal before the Expiration Date, which notice must contain: (A) the name of the person who tendered the shares; (B) a description of the shares to be withdrawn; (C) the certificate numbers shown on the particular certificates evidencing the shares; (D) the signature of the shareholder executed in the same manner as the original signature on the Letter of Transmittal, including any signature guarantee, if such original signature was guaranteed; and (E) if the shares are held by a new beneficial owner, evidence satisfactory to the Offerors that the person withdrawing the tender has succeeded to the beneficial ownership of the shares. A purported notice of withdrawal which lacks any of the required information will not be an effective withdrawal of a tender previously made.

          Rescission of Withdrawals Not Permitted. Any permitted withdrawals of tenders of shares may not be rescinded, and any shares so withdrawn will thereafter be deemed not validly tendered for purposes of the Offer; provided, however, that withdrawn shares may be re-tendered prior to the Expiration Date by following the procedures for tendering.

         Form and Validity of Withdrawals. All questions as to the form and validity, including time of receipt, of any notice of withdrawal will be determined by Offerors in their sole discretion, which determination shall be final and binding on all parties. None of the Offerors, the Depository or any other person is or will be under any duty to give notification of any defect or irregularity in any notice of withdrawal or incur any liability for failure to give any such notification.

SECTION 4.  ACCEPTANCE FOR PAYMENT OF SHARES AND PAYMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE

         Prompt Acceptance and Payment. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer and as promptly as practicable before or after the Expiration Date, we will accept for payment and pay the Purchase Price for shares validly tendered and not withdrawn. Thereafter, payment for all shares validly tendered on or prior to the Expiration Date and accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer will be made by the Depositary by check as promptly as practicable.   In all cases, payment for shares accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer will be made only after timely receipt by the Depository of certificates for such shares, a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal with any required signature guarantees, and any other required documents.

         Possible Payment Delay. Payment for shares may be delayed in the event of difficulty in determining the number of shares properly tendered or in the event of certain other circumstances.  We reserve the right to delay payment of shares as is necessary or required by law.

         Required Federal Income Tax Withholding. Any tendering shareholder or other payee who fails to complete fully and sign the substitute Form W-9 included as Page 4 of the Letter of Transmittal, or, in the case of a foreign individual, a Form W-8, may be subject to required federal income tax withholding of 30% of the gross proceeds paid to such shareholder or other payee pursuant to the offer. See Section 13 for more information.

SECTION 5.  CONDITIONS OF THE OFFER

            Number of Shares tendered. One of the conditions to the Offer is that shareholders holding 100 Preferred B shares or less must tender all or none of their shares, while those holding more than 100 shares may tender all or any portion, but not less than 100 shares

         Change of Circumstances. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Offer, we will not be required to accept for payment or pay for any shares tendered, and we may terminate or amend and may postpone, subject to the requirements of the Exchange Act for prompt payment for or return of shares tendered, the acceptance for payment of shares tendered, if at any time  prior to the acceptance for payment of, and payment for, shares validly tendered, any of the following conditions shall exist:

(a)        there shall have been threatened, instituted or pending any action or proceeding by any government or governmental, regulatory or administrative agency or authority or tribunal  or any other person, domestic or foreign, or before any court, authority, agency or tribunal that (i) challenges the acquisition of shares pursuant to the Offer or otherwise in any manner relates to or affects the Offer or (ii) in our reasonable judgment, could materially and adversely affect the business, condition, financial or other, income, operations or prospects of Croff, taken as a whole, or otherwise materially impair in any way the contemplated future conduct of the business of Offerors.

(b)        there shall have been any action threatened, pending or taken, or approval withheld, or any statute, rule, regulation, judgment, order or injunction threatened, proposed, sought, promulgated, enacted, entered, amended, enforced or deemed to be applicable to the Offer or Croff, by any legislative body, court, authority, agency or tribunal which, in our sole judgment, would or might directly or indirectly (i) make the acceptance for payment of, or payment for, some or all of the shares illegal or otherwise restrict or prohibit consummation of the Offer, (ii) delay or restrict our ability or render us unable to accept for payment or pay for some or all of the shares, (iii) materially impair the contemplated benefits of the Offer to us or to the Company or (iv) materially affect the business, condition, financial or other, income, operations or prospects of Offerors, or otherwise materially impair in any way the contemplated future conduct of the business of  Offerors.

(c)        there shall have occurred (i) any general suspension of trading in, or limitation on prices for, securities  in the over-the-counter  market, (ii)   any change in the general political, market, economic or financial condition in the United States or abroad that could have a material adverse effect on our or the Company's business, condition, financial or otherwise, income, operations, prospects or ability to obtain financing generally or the trading in the shares, (iii) the declaration of a banking moratorium or any suspension of payments in respect of banks in the United States or any limitation on, or any event which, in our reasonable judgment, might affect the extension of credit by lending institutions in the United States, (iv) the commencement of a war, armed hostilities or other international or national calamity directly or indirectly involving the United States, or (v) in the case of any of the foregoing existing at the time of the commencement of the Offer, in our reasonable judgment, a material acceleration or worsening thereof;

(d)        there shall have occurred any event or events that have resulted, or may in our reasonable judgment result, directly or indirectly, in an actual or threatened change in the business, condition, financial or other, income, operations, stock ownership or prospects of Croff or Offerors;

(e)        there shall have been commenced, or proposed, a tender offer by a third party or Croff, or an exchange offer, merger, business combination or other similar transaction involving Croff during the term of the Offer;

and, in our reasonable judgment, such event or events make it undesirable or inadvisable to proceed with the offer or with such acceptance for payment.

            Qualification of Preferred B Shareholders to Tender Their Shares to Us.  The Preferred B shares were originally issued by Croff in a private offering of securities not involving a public offering and, therefore, are restricted securities, as defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933.  Accordingly, in order for Preferred B Shareholders to sell their shares to us without requiring the shares to be registered with the SEC, the Preferred B shareholders must meet certain qualifications.  In addition, most states impose requirements that securities offered for sale and sold be registered in the applicable state or exempt from registration.  We are not responsible for your determination regarding your status with respect to federal SEC Rule 144.  Nor are we responsible for determining your ability to meet certain applicable state exemptions from registration of securities.  However, in order to participate in this Offer, you must meet one of the following requirements. To the best of our knowledge, , there are no affiliates of Croff to whom this Offer is made, with the exception of members of the Board of Directors (or their affiliated entities), and according to the Company's records, no non-affiliate has held Preferred B shares for less than two years.  Thus, we believe that all tendering shareholders (other than Croff officers and directors) will meet the requirement (1) below as a non-affiliate who has held the Preferred B shares for at least two years.  The two requirements (one of which must be met) are as follows:

                        (1)  Non-Affiliates Who Have Held Their Shares for at Least Two Years.  If you are not an affiliate of Croff, as defined in Rule 144, and you have held your Preferred B shares for at least two years from the time such shares were originally acquired until the time you tender them pursuant to the Offer, you may tender your shares to us under Rule 144 and not register such shares with the SEC.  You may wish to consult with an attorney regarding the definition of an affiliate and the provisions of Rule 144.  Rule 144 defines "affiliate" of the issuer (here, the issuer is Croff) as a person that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with, such issuer.  Generally, by way of example and not by limitation, persons or entities are deemed to "control" an entity if they are an executive officer, director or hold 10% of any class of the entity's securities, or if, by virtue of their relationships, such as familial relations, they are closely connected with a person or entity deemed to be an affiliate.

                        (2)  Affiliates or Non-Affiliates Who Have Held Their Preferred B Shares at Least One Year.  Note: To the best of our knowledge, the only affiliates of Croff would include present or past officers and directors.  Further, Croff's records reflect that almost all non-affiliate Preferred B shareholders have held their shares at least two years.  Thus, we believe that this requirement (2) is not applicable to you unless you are an officer, past or present, a director, past or present, or an immediate family member of the above. 

If you are an affiliate of Croff, or have been an affiliate of Croff within the last three months, or (b) you are not an affiliate of Croff (but you have not held your shares for the two year holding period in order to meet the requirements of paragraph (1), above), and (c) you have  held your Preferred B shares for at least one year from the time such shares were originally acquired until the time you tender them pursuant to the Offer, you may tender your shares to us under Rule 144 without registration, but only subject to the following additional requirements under Rule 144:

(a) Current Public Information.  Croff must have available certain current public information, as specified in Rule 144(c).  We believe that at the time of commencement of the Offer that Croff meets the current information requirement of this provision of Rule 144.

(b) Holding Period.  A minimum of one year must elapse between the later of the date of the acquisition of the securities from the issuer (Croff) or from an affiliate of the issuer, and any resale of such securities pursuant to the Offer.

(c) Limitation on Amount of Sale/Tender.  The amount of securities sold, together with all sales of restricted and other securities of the same class for the account of such person within the preceding three months, shall not exceed one percent of the shares or other units of the class outstanding as shown by the most recent report or statement published by the issuer.  As of December 31, 2004, Croff reported that there were 540,659 outstanding Preferred B shares.  Thus, one percent would constitute 5,407 shares.

(d) Manner of Sale.  The shares shall be sold in brokers' transactions within the meaning of section 4(4) of the Securities Act or in transactions directly with a market maker, as that term is defined in section 3(a)(38) of the Exchange Act of 1934, and the person selling the securities shall not (1) solicit or arrange for the solicitation of orders to buy the securities in anticipation of or in connection with such transaction, or (2) make any payment in connection with the offer or sale of the securities to any person other than the broker who executes an order to sell the securities. The requirements of this paragraph, however, shall not apply to securities sold for the account of the estate of a deceased person or for the account of a beneficiary of such estate provided the estate or beneficiary thereof is not an affiliate of the issuer.

(e) Notice of proposed sale. If the amount of securities to be sold to us in reliance upon Rule 144 during any period of three months exceeds 500 shares or has an aggregate sale price in excess of $10,000, three copies of a notice on Form 144 shall be filed with the Commission at its principal office in Washington, D.C.

            Qualifications Under State Blue Sky Laws.  In addition to the foregoing requirements under the federal securities laws, state securities laws ("Blue Sky Laws") often impose similar restrictions upon selling securities that are not registered in the applicable state, as well as various exemptions from registration.  Many states exempt isolated transactions by persons who are not issuers.  We are not responsible for determining whether your sale of the tendered shares in this Offer is exempt from state Blue Sky Law registration requirements.  You may wish to consult legal counsel if you have questions about this. 

No Waiver. The foregoing conditions are for the reasonable benefit of us and may be asserted by us regardless of the circumstances, including any action or inaction by Offerors, giving rise to any of these conditions, and any such condition may be waived by us, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time in our reasonable discretion. Our failure at any time to exercise any of the foregoing rights shall not be deemed a waiver of the right and each of these rights shall be deemed an ongoing right which may be asserted at any time and from time to time. Any determination by us concerning the events described above will be final and binding on all parties.

         Expiration Date. The Exchange Act requires that all conditions to the offer must be satisfied or waived before the Expiration Date.

SECTION 6.  HISTORICAL PRICE RANGEOF SHARES

            The Preferred B shares have not been registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and are considered restricted securities under applicable law.  Accordingly, there is no established trading market for the purchase or sale of the Preferred B shares.  Some very limited number of the Preferred B shares have traded from time to time through a clearinghouse maintained by Croff on its website http://www.croff.com Croff does not establish any trading prices of the Preferred B shares, but has maintained a bid and ask forum on its website.  The few trades in the Preferred B shares that have occurred have been limited to private transactions between buyers and sellers as arranged on the website by the parties to the transactions. Croff acts as its own transfer agent with respect to the Preferred B shares.   

            The limited trading information provided below for 2002 through 2004 is shown for transactions in the Preferred B shares of which Croff is aware of the bid or ask price. This information is provided as a guide to you and do not constitute our determination of the fair market value of the Preferred B shares.

Historical Events of Interest.  In November 1991, Croff reverse-split its common stock on a ratio of 1 share of common stock for every 10 shares previously held. On February 28, 1996, the shareholders of Croff approved the issuance of the Preferred B stock to be issued to each common shareholder on the basis of one share Preferred B for each share of common stock.  Articles of Amendment for Croff creating and issuing the Preferred B shares were filed on July 1, 1996.  Croff  issued all of the Preferred B shares and delivered the Preferred B shares to each of the shareholders for which it had a current address. In June 2000, Croff approved the increase in the authorized Class B Preferred stock to 1,000,000 shares. No additional Preferred B shares were issued, except under then existing options to the Board of Directors which options were exercised or expired on December 31, 2001. During 2001, the Croff Board of Directors determined that the cash generated from the Oil Assets, which had been building during a period of high oil prices, should be formally allocated between the common stock and the Preferred B stock. The Board made a one time allocation of $250,000 cash to the common stock with the balance of cash remaining with the Preferred B stock.  The Board then determined that future oil and gas cash flow from the Oil Assets would be accumulated solely for the benefit of the Preferred B shareholders.  Croff established separate investment accounts for the Preferred B and common stock investments. The Preferred B money market account has a current balance of approximately $270,000.   

            Determination of Purchase Price.  Because of the limited trading in the Preferred B shares, there is no active market on which to determine the trade price. The last trades were at $1.05, approximately one-third of our $3 offer price. We looked at two other factors in determining the Purchase Price. The primary criterion was the reserve report on the Oil Assets received by Croff, effectiveDecember 31, 2004 According the reserve report, the present value of the Oil Assets (future net revenue, discounted at 10% to present value) was $1,642,205. This reserve report was completed by an independent engineer and is summarized on pages F-14 to F-18 in the annual report (Form 10-K) recently sent to you by Croff.  The Offer was also based on our opinion that approximately 80% present value of the oil and natural gas reserves was a fair market value offer. To this we added the approximate cash money market assets of the Preferred B shares to reach a value that was just under $3 per share. We then rounded the offer up to $3 per share. We also examined the book value of the Preferred B assets which, as of December 31, 2004, was valued at $1.41 per share or approximately one-half of the $3 offer. This valuation reflects entirely the determination and judgment of Offerors as to value and not any other third party.  

SECTION 7.  PURPOSE OF THE OFFER; CERTAIN EFFECTS OF THE OFFER

The first purpose of the Offer is to provide the Offerors with majority control of the Preferred B shares, thereby obtaining priority interest in the Oil Assets in the event of liquidation, distribution, merger or sale of the Oil Assets.  Another purpose of the Offer is to provide liquidity in the form of a cash offer to the Preferred B shareholders, based on the fact that there has been an extremely limited market developed for the Preferred B shares, and the last trades were at a price of approximately $1 per share.  As set out above under "Determination of share price," the determination of the Purchase Price was based on our determination that the offered Purchase Price is (a) approximately 80% of the net reserve value of our Oil Assets, discounted to present value, plus the cash assets allocated to the Preferred B shares, (b) approximately twice the book value, and (c) approximately three times the last trade value in 2004, divided where appropriate, by the 540,659 Preferred B shares to yield a value of $3 per share, our Offer. This Offer will enable the Preferred B shareholder to obtain the Purchase Price without further cost or commission.  The Offerors believe that the Offer is mutually beneficial in providing liquidity to the remaining Preferred B shareholders who have a very limited market and transferring a greater ownership share of the Oil Assets, over which assets the Preferred B shareholders have a beneficial interest superior to that of the common and other shareholders.  Offerors may seek to separate these Oil Assets from Croff, and its attendant public company expenses.  However while the Preferred B shares have a priority beneficial interest in the Oil Asstes, superior in interest to any other class of Croff shares, the Oil Assets are nevertheless owned by Croff and their ultimate disposition, if any, will be determined by Croff's Board of Directors.

            If this Offer is successful, Offerors will likely control a majority of the Preferred B shares and thus, a controlling beneficial interest in the Oil Assets. The current operations of Croff consist almost entirely of the Oil Assets. The only oil and natural gas assets over which the Preferred B shareholders do not have a priority beneficial interest are the Dewitt Leases. The Dewitt Leases are the leases which were contributed to a joint venture with Tempest Resources in which the Company has a right to a 25% working interest.  See the Company's annual report  on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004 for a more thorough discussion of the Dewitt Leases.  We believe that the value of Croff's common shares without the Oil Assets may be dependent on a reverse merger with a private company which has assets more suitable for a public company, in that they may be more scalable and of higher value.  We believe that if such a transaction were accomplished in the future by the Company that the shareholders will be better served by receiving cash for their Preferred B shares pursuant to this Offer.  Offerors believe that the common shares may be more valuable separated from the Preferred B shares as the Company may be an attractive vehicle for an entity seeking to merge with a public company. 

We originally proposed to Croff that it cancel the non-Offerors Preferred B shares in return for a cash payment from us, that would be paid directly to the Preferred B shareholders.  The non-management committee of the Board rejected that proposal and suggested that we present a tender offer directly to the Preferred B shareholders.  The Company's stated reason was that if the Company transferred the Oil Assets for fair market value and distributed the proceeds to the Preferred B shareholders, it would likely have two adverse tax consequences.  Because Croff's tax basis in many of the leases, comprising the Oil Assets, is at a low value, and the transfer would have to be at fair market value, this could result in a substantial tax bill to Croff in the range of hundreds of thousands of dollars.  This would diminish the assets available for distribution and the value of the Preferred B shares.  In addition, such a proposal risked the treatment by the Internal Revenue Service of taxing any such distribution as a dividend for income tax purposes, which would result in an ordinary gain to the shareholder, which could cost shareholders a larger tax on any distribution.  Offerors believe that this tender offer is more favorable to the Company and the Preferred B shareholder. 

The Offerors intend to acquire as many of the remaining Preferred B shares not owned by Mr. Jensen and Jensen Development as possible, with a view to controlling the Oil Assets, over which these shares have a priority beneficial interest.  While no definitive plan currently exists, we may seek to consolidate control of these assets in a non-public company.  We believe the Oil Assets are too small, geographically diverse, and not scalable enough to attract more public capital. We believe that by separating the Oil Assets and offering a cash payout to the Preferred B shareholders, the Preferred B shareholders are benefited.  The Company then could possibly enter into a strategic transaction such as a reverse merger or acquisition, in order to increase the common shareholders' value. After completion of a transaction by us in which the Oil Assets are sold or placed in a private entity, the Company could then seek assets that are more scalable, and faster growing, so that shareholder value of the common could be increased, while providing a cash liquidation of the Preferred B shares.  We cannot give assurance that our views are correct or that our plans (or Croff's) may materialize, nor that if our plans (or Croff's) do materialize, that they will achieve the results that we intend.

         Each shareholder must make his, her or its own decision as to the value of the Preferred B shares and relative benefits, in light of his, her or its own financial position and investment objectives, of tendering in the Offer or retaining the shares for the possibility of increased value in the future. We have been authorized to state that the four disinterested non-management committee of Croff's Board of Directors "unanimously believe that a tender offer is a good alternative, from a financial perspective, for the Croff Preferred B shareholders generally at this time. The same Directors also unanimously believe that each preferred B shareholder should decide whether or not to tender shares in this Tender Offer based upon their specific situation and investment objectives. Therefore, the non-management commitee makes no recommendation for or agains this Tender Offer. For your information each Director on the non-management committe has expressed an inclination to tender all or part of his shares in this Tender Offer. Directors, officers and employees of the Company who own shares may participate in the Offer on the same basis as any other shareholders, subject to the conditions set forth in Section 5.

         Effect of the Offer. If you decide not to tender, you will be a minority shareholder of the Preferred B shares, while the majority of the Preferred B shares most likely would be held by us, and our affiliate, Mr. Jensen.  After the Offer is concluded, we may seek greater control over the Oil Assets and/or attempt to separate the Oil Assets from the other assets of the Company.  In any of these events, there will likely be an even more limited market for the Preferred B shares than exists at present.  The shares may be worth less based upon being less marketable.  You also may have difficulty in selling the shares.  In the event of liquidation, distribution, merger or sale of the Oil Assets, the rights and preferences of the Preferred B shares provide that you will be paid your pro rata share of the net asset value of the Oil Assets.  In addition, in the event of certain events such as a merger, which would impact your Preferred B shares,  you may have the right under Utah law to dissent to such transaction, or the amount being offered to you in such transaction, and demand payment of the fair value of your Preferred B shares. In the event such a transaction occurs, we recommend you consult with legal counsel about your rights and whether you have a right to dissent under Utah law.  If you are also a Croff common shareholder, as most Preferred B shareholders are, whether or not you tender your Preferred B shares in the Offer, if we are successful in our efforts to gain control of, and ultimately dispose of, the Oil Assets, the Company and the common shareholders will essentially be left with the Dewitt Leases as the principal assets of the Company.

Offerors are not aware of any license or regulatory permit that appears to be material to Croff's business that might be adversely affected by our acquisition of shares as contemplated herein or of any approval or other action by, or any filing with, any government or governmental, administrative or regulatory authority or agency, domestic or foreign, that would be required for the acquisition or ownership of shares by the Offerors, other than our filing the Schedule TO and exhibits with the SEC, as contemplated herein. Should any approval or other action be required, Offerors presently contemplate that the approval or other action will be sought. We are unable to predict whether we may determine that we are required to delay the acceptance for payment of, or payment for, shares tendered pursuant to this offer pending the outcome of any such matter. There can be no assurance that any approval or other action, if needed, would be obtained, or would be obtained without substantial conditions, or that the failure to obtain any approval or other action might not result in adverse consequences to the Offerors' or the Company's business. The obligations under the Offer to accept for payment, and pay for, shares is subject to the conditions specified in "Section 5. Conditions of the Offer."  One such condition is that the selling Preferred B shareholders meet certain requirements, as described in Section 5, to ensure that their sale to us of restricted securities is not required to be registered under applicable federal and state securities laws. We believe, but can give you no assurances, that subject to the conditions outlined in Section 5, the non-affiliate Preferred B shareholders meet the federal requirements for selling restricted securities, and that the affiliates (officers and directors of Croff) may sell to us with certain limitations outlined in Section 5.  As to state Blue Sky requirements, we believe, but can give you no assurance, that exemptions from registration exist in most states that may apply to you in selling your shares pursuant to this Offer.  However, since Blue Sky laws vary from state to state, and each Preferred B shareholder's circumstances are different, if any shareholder has questions, he or she should consult with an attorney licensed to practice law in his or her state.

            Litigation. To the best of our knowledge, no lawsuits have been filed or threatened relating to the Offer.

SECTION 13.  FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES 

            Caution.  We are not responsible for the manner in which the Company will record the Tender Offer transaction for income tax purposes.  With respect to how the sale of your shares pursuant to this Offer will be treated for your personal income taxes, the following general information is provided as a guide and should not be viewed as being complete or applicable to all shareholders.  The tax consequences of tendering shares in this Offer will vary depending on the circumstances of each shareholder.  Each shareholder should consult his, her or its own tax advisor as to the particular United States federal, and state, income tax consequences to that shareholder of tendering shares pursuant to the Offer and the applicability and effect of any state, local or foreign tax laws and recent changes in applicable tax laws.

General. The following is a very brief discussion of the material United States federal income tax consequences to shareholders with respect to a sale of shares pursuant to the Offer. The discussion is based upon the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, Treasury Regulations, Internal Revenue Service rulings and judicial decisions, all in effect as of the date hereof and all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect, by subsequent legislative, judicial or administrative action. The discussion does not address all aspects of United States federal income taxation that may be relevant to a particular shareholder in light of the shareholder's particular circumstances or to certain types of holders subject to special treatment under the United States federal income tax laws, such as certain financial institutions, tax-exempt organizations, life insurance companies, dealers in securities or currencies, employee benefit plans or shareholders holding the shares as part of a conversion transaction, as part of a hedge or hedging transaction, or as a position in a straddle for tax purposes. In addition, the discussion below does not consider the effect of any foreign, state, local or other tax laws that may be applicable to particular shareholders. The discussion assumes that the shares are held as "capital assets" within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Internal Revenue Code.  

With respect to federal income tax, shareholders who have held their Preferred B shares for over twelve months should be entitled to capital gains treatment on the difference between the cash consideration received and the shareholder's basis in the shares. It is believed that each individual stockholder would have an adjusted tax basis in the common stock. The Offerors do not know the individual tax basis or what shares of common stock have any amount of tax basis. Since Preferred B shares were issued for no additional considerations to all common shareholders on a one for one ratio, the shareholders basis normally would be zero, unless an allocation of the individual tax basis in the common stokc is properly allocable to the individual's Preferred B stock   We are not qualified to offer tax advice and each shareholder tendering should consult his, her, or its own tax advisor on the federal and state tax aspects of this transaction. 

         Consult Your Tax Advisor. The tax discussion set forth above is included for general information only and may not apply to shares acquired in connection with the exercise of stock options or pursuant to other compensation arrangements with the Company. The tax consequences of a sale pursuant to the Offer may vary depending upon, among other things, the particular circumstances of the tendering shareholder. No information is provided herein as to the state, local or foreign tax consequences of the transaction contemplated by the Offer. Shareholders are urged to consult their own tax advisors to determine the particular federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences to them of tendering shares pursuant to the offer and the effect of the stock ownership attribution rules described above.

SECTION 14.  EXTENSION OF TENDER PERIOD; TERMINATION; AMENDMENTS

            Right to Extend, Amend or Terminate Offer. We expressly reserve the right, in our sole discretion and at anytime or from time to time, to extend the period of time during which the Offer is open by giving oral or written notice of the extension to the Depository and making a public announcement thereof or by mailing written notice to each shareholder. However, we have no current intent to extend the Offer. During any extension, all shares previously tendered will remain subject to the Offer, except to the extent that shares may be withdrawn as set forth in Section 3. We also expressly reserve the right, in our sole discretion, (i) to terminate the offer and not accept for payment any shares not previously accepted for payment or, subject to Rule 13e-4(f)(5) under the Exchange Act which requires us either to pay the consideration offered or to return the shares tendered promptly after the termination or withdrawal of the Offer, to postpone payment for shares upon the occurrence of any of the conditions specified in Section 5 hereof, by giving oral or written notice of such termination to the Depository and making a public announcement thereof and (ii) at any time, or from time to time, to amend the offer in any respect. Any such extension, delay, termination, or amendment will be followed as promptly as practicable by public announcement thereof, such announcement in the case of an extension to be made no later than 9:00 a.m., Mountain Time, on the next business day after the previously scheduled Expiration Date. Amendments to the Offer may be effected by public announcement or by a subsequent mailing to the shareholders. Offerors shall have no obligation, except as otherwise required by applicable law, to publish, advertise or otherwise communicate any extension, termination or amendment, other than by making a public announcement or a subsequent mailing to all shareholders. Material changes to information previously provided to holders of the shares in this offer or in documents furnished subsequent thereto will be disseminated to holders of shares in compliance with Rule 13e-4(e)(3) promulgated by the SEC under the Exchange Act.

         Material Changes to Offer. If we materially change the terms of the Offer or the information concerning the Offer, or if we waive a material condition of the Offer, we will extend the Offer to the extent required by Rule 13e-4 under the Exchange Act. If we make a material change to the terms of the Offer, we will extend the Offer by at least ten business days from the time notice of the change is given.  Under Rule 13e-4(f)(1) of the Exchange Act, the Offer will continue or be extended for at least ten business days from the time the Offerors publish, send or give to holders of shares notice that they will (a) increase or decrease the price paid for shares or (b) increase, except for an increase not exceeding 2% of the outstanding shares, or decrease the number of shares sought. 

SECTION 15.  SOLICITATION FEES AND EXPENSES

         The Company has retained American National Bank as Depository in connection with the Offer. The Depository will receive reasonable and customary compensation for its services and also will be reimbursed for certain out-of-pocket expenses. We have agreed to indemnify the Depository against certain liabilities, including certain liabilities under the federal securities laws, in connection with the Offer. The Depository has not been retained to make solicitations or recommendations in connection with the Offer.

We have designated Gerald L. Jensen and Katie Eisenach as information agents in connection with the Offer. The information agents will receive no compensation for their services. The information agents may contact shareholders by mail, telephone, facsimile, or other electronic means and may request brokers, dealers, and other nominee shareholders to forward materials and information concerning the Offer to the beneficial owners.

We will not pay any fees or commissions to any broker, dealer or other person for soliciting tenders of shares pursuant to the Offer.

Such statement and other information may be accessed electronically by means of the SEC's web page on the Internet (http://www.sec.gov).

SECTION 17.  MISCELLANEOUS

         The Offer is being made to all holders of Preferred B shares. Offerors are not aware of any state where the making of the Offer is prohibited by administrative or judicial action pursuant to a valid state statute. If we become aware of any valid state statute prohibiting the making of the Offer, Offerors will make a good faith effort to comply with the statute. If, after such good faith effort, Offerors cannot comply with the statute, the Offer will not be made to, nor will tenders be accepted from or on behalf of, holders of shares in that state.

         No person has been authorized to make any recommendation on behalf of Croff Enterprises, Inc. or the Offerors as to whether shareholders should tender shares pursuant to the offer. No person has been authorized to give any information or to make any representations in connection with the Offer other than those contained in this Offer to Purchase or in the related Letter of Transmittal.

Dear Fellow Shareholders,

I am the President of Jensen Development Company and the Managing Member of C.S. Finance L.L.C., the companies that are offering you $3.00 per share for your Croff Preferred B stock. You obviously know me better as the President and Chairman of Croff Enterprises, Inc., your Company. I am writing you this letter to explain to you some of the main reasons why we are making this tender offer for your Preferred B shares. The reasons include:

1.      Current high oil and natural gas prices are producing a cash flow which allows us to justify, and secure borrowing to offer an all cash purchase.

2.      The Preferred B shares have an extremely limited trading market with no trades in over a year.

3.      We believe that the cash flow from the Oil Assets, over which the Preferred B shares have a priority beneficial interest, can best be realized for smaller shareholders by turning these assets into cash. If the Board of Directors sold the Oil Assets, to provide cash to buy back the Preferred B shares, it would create a large tax liability which would deplete Croff's cash and value.

4.      As the largest beneficial shareholder in Croff, it was logical for us to make a cash offer for the Preferred B shares based on these reasons, and because we felt these small, diverse, non-operated oil and gas interests are valuable.

5.      We feel that our offer of $3 per Preferred B share is a fair offer to you, based on the fact, among others, that the offer constitutes, approximately: (a) 80% of the net reserve value (future estimated net revenue discounted at 10% to present value) of the Oil Assets, plus the cash assets, (b) twice the book value, and y (c) three times the last trade value from 2004, plus the fact that there is no commission or cost to the shareholder.

We would urge you to complete the letter of transmittal and tender your Preferred B shares to take advantage of this opportunity.

Very Truly Yours,

Jensen Development Company

NEWS RELEASE

JENSEN DEVELOPMENT COMPANY AND C.S. FINANCE L.L.C. ANNOUNCES TENDER OFFER

FOR CROFF ENTERPRISES, INC. CLASS B PREFERRED SHARES

DENVER, COLORADO - JUNE 15, 2005

Jensen Development Company and C.S. Finance L.L.C. announced today a cash Tender Offer of $3 per share for all of the Class B Preferred shares (the "Preferred B shares") of Croff Enterprises, Inc., not presently held by itself, or its President, Gerald L. Jensen. The Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 15, 2005. Jensen Development Company and C.S. Finance L.L.C., wholly owned by Gerald L. Jensen, are the Offerors. Along with the shares personally held by Gerald L. Jensen, the Offerors hold 253,191 Preferred B shares out of 540,659 Preferred B shares outstanding, or approximately 47% of the Preferred B shares of Croff Enterprises, Inc. The Tender at an offering price of $3, is for the remaining 287,468 Preferred B shares not held by Offerors and Mr. Jensen. If all Preferred B shares are tendered, the transaction value of the Tender Offer is $875,000. In a letter to shareholders, Mr. Jensen listed, on behalf of the Offerors, five primary reasons to support the $3 offer:

1.       Current high oil and natural gas prices are producing a cash flow which allows the Offerors to justify, and secure borrowing, to offer an all cash purchase.

2.       The Preferred B shares have an extremely limited trading market with no trades in over a year.

3.       The cash flow from the Oil Assets, over which the Preferred B shares have a priority beneficial interest, can best be realized for smaller shareholders by turning these assets into cash. If the Board of Directors sold the Oil Assets, to provide cash to buy back the Preferred B shares, it would create a large tax liability which would deplete Croff's cash and value.

4.       As the largest beneficial shareholder in Croff, it was logical for us to make a cash offer for the Preferred B shares based on these reasons, and because we felt these small, diverse, non-operated oil and gas interests are valuable.

5.       We feel that our offer of $3 per Preferred B share is a fair offer to the Preferred B shareholders, based on the fact, among others, that the offer constitutes, approximately, (a) 80% of the net reserve value of the Oil Assets (future net revenue discounted at 10% to present value), plus the cash assets, (b) twice the book value, and (c) three times the last trade value from 2004, plus the fact that there is no commission or cost to the shareholder, make the $3.00 per share net value a good offer to you.

The Offerors agreed to pay the costs of the tender offer, so there would be no cost or commission to shareholders. Each share would receive the full $3. Preferred B shares are restricted, non voting shares (except for limited circumstances) of Croff Enterprises, Inc., which are traded in a very limited market. American National Bank, 3033 E. 1^st Avenue, Denver, Colorado 80209, is the Depository for the Offer. The Tender Offer is to remain open through July 29, 2005, unless extended.
