approximately 43,000 barrels of oil and 571,000 mcf of gas.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Effective March&nbsp;15, 2004, Mellon Investor Services, transfer agent for
Sabine Royalty Trust, opened a new toll free number dedicated to Sabine Royalty
Trust, to provide account service assistance for registered unit holders of the
Trust. That toll free number is 800-874-2086.
