STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">FORT WORTH, Texas, January&nbsp;25, 2013 &#150; Compass Bank (the &#147;Trustee&#148;) as Trustee of the San Juan Basin Royalty Trust (NYSE:SJT) (the &#147;Trust&#148;), today announced the capital
project plan for 2013 as delivered to it by Burlington Resources Oil&nbsp;&amp; Gas Company LP (&#147;Burlington&#148;). Capital expenditures for 2013 for properties subject to the Trust&#146;s royalty interest are estimated to be $28.5 million. Of
the $28.5 million, approximately $5 million will be attributable to the capital budgets for 2012 and prior years. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The principal asset of the
Trust is a 75% net overriding royalty interest carved out of certain oil and gas leasehold and royalty interests in properties now owned by Burlington (the &#147;Underlying Properties&#148;) located in the San Juan Basin and more particularly in San
Juan, Rio Arriba and Sandoval counties of northwestern New Mexico. Burlington is the operator of the majority of the Underlying Properties. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Burlington&#146;s announced 2013 plan for the Underlying Properties includes 412 projects. Approximately $18.2 million of the $28.5 million budget is
allocable to 24 new wells, including 18 wells scheduled to be dually completed in the Mesaverde and Dakota formations and two wells that are planned to be completed in all three of the Mesaverde, Mancos Shale and Dakota formations. Approximately
$5.4 million will be spent on recompletions and miscellaneous facilities projects. Of the $5 million attributable to the budgets for prior years, approximately $3 million is allocable to 30 new wells and the $2 million balance will be applied to
miscellaneous capital projects such as workovers and operated facility projects. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Burlington mentioned that it commenced a horizontal well in
the Mancos Shale formation on the Underlying Properties in the fourth quarter of 2012 and expects the first delivery of gas from the well in the first quarter of 2013. This well is designated the Yert 1-H. Burlington indicated that it will continue
to assess its program of horizontal drilling but that horizontal Mancos Shale activity is uncertain for 2013. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In light of the challenged
price environment for natural gas and natural gas liquids, Burlington will increase its recompletion activity in 2013, noting that such activity is intended to open a new zone of production at a substantially lower cost than drilling a new well.
Burlington reports that based on its actual capital requirements, the pace of regulatory approvals, the mix of projects and swings in the price of natural gas, the actual capital expenditures for 2013 could range from $15 million to $45 million.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Capital expenditures of $22.2 million were included in calculating royalty income paid to the Trust in calendar year 2012. Approximately
$14.1 million covered 114 projects budgeted for 2012, including the drilling of 24 new wells operated by Burlington and no new wells operated by third parties. Approximately $13.2 million of those costs were incurred in new drilling activity. The
balance of the expenditures was attributable to the workover of existing wells and the maintenance and improvement of production facilities. </FONT></P>

<HR  SIZE="3" style="COLOR:#999999" WIDTH="100%" ALIGN="CENTER">

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The capital expenditures reported by Burlington in calculating royalty income for 2012 included
approximately $8.1 million attributable to the capital budgets for prior years. This occurs because capital expenditures are deducted in calculating royalty income in the month they are accrued, and projects within a given year&#146;s budget often
extend into subsequent years. Further, Burlington&#146;s accounting period for capital expenditures runs through November&nbsp;30 of each calendar year, such that capital expenditures incurred in December of each year are actually accounted for as
part of the following year&#146;s capital expenditures. Also, for wells not operated by Burlington, Burlington&#146;s share of capital expenditures may not actually be paid by it until the year or years after those expenses were incurred by the
operator. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Except for historical information contained in this news release, the statements in this news release are forward-looking
