<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;FORT WORTH, Texas, April&nbsp;20, 2009  &#151;  Compass Bank, as Trustee of the San Juan Basin Royalty
Trust (NYSE:SJT), today declared a monthly cash distribution to the holders of its units of
beneficial interest of $286,391.63 or $0.006145 per unit, based principally upon production during
the month of February&nbsp;2009. The distribution is payable May&nbsp;14, 2009, to unit holders of record as
of April&nbsp;30, 2009.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Gas production for the properties from which the royalty was carved (the &#147;Underlying
Properties&#148;) totaled approximately 2,640,447 Mcf (2,849,413 MMBtu). Dividing revenues by
production volume yielded an average gas price for February&nbsp;2009 of $3.10 per Mcf ($2.88 per
MMBtu) as compared to $4.67 per Mcf ($4.30 per MMBtu) for January&nbsp;2009. The average gas price may
vary significantly from the posted index price for the San Juan Basin. The index price is a gross
sales price, and the revenues used in the calculation of average gas prices are net of
transportation, processing and gathering costs. Furthermore, the distribution to the Trust in any
given month may include significant volume adjustments for sales in prior months that reflect
pricing for those prior months. Capital costs for the month were $3,944,534. Lease operating
expenses were $2,764,585 and taxes were $833,930.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;BROG has entered into four new contracts effective April&nbsp;1, 2009 for the sale of all gas
produced from the Underlying Properties other than the gas covered by the pre-existing contract
