Sabine Royalty Trust Announces Monthly Cash Distribution for April and 2007 Reserve Quantities

    DALLAS, April 4 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Bank of America, N.A.,
Dallas, Texas, as Trustee of the Sabine Royalty Trust (NYSE: SBR), today
declared a cash distribution to the holders of its units of beneficial
interest of $0.31552 per unit, payable on April 30, 2007, to unit holders
of record on April 16, 2007.
    This distribution reflects primarily the oil production for January
2007 and the gas production for December 2006. Preliminary production
volumes are approximately 40,567 barrels of oil and 463,979 mcf of gas.
Preliminary prices are approximately $51.73 per barrel of oil and $6.59 per
mcf of gas.
    The table below compares this month's production and prices to the
previous months:


                            Net to Trust Sales
                                 Volumes                 Average Price
                             Oil         Gas           Oil           Gas
                            (Bbls)      (Mcf)        (per Bbl)    (per Mcf)
    Current Month           40,567      463,979       $51.73        $6.59

    Prior Month             22,555      399,705       $55.08        $6.87
    Due to the timing of the end of the month of March, approximately
$95,000 of revenue received will be posted in the following month of April
in addition to normal receipts during April. Revenues are only posted and
distributed when they are received. Most energy companies normally issue
payment of royalties on or about the 25th of every month, and depending on
mail delivery, a varying amount of royalties are not received until after
the revenue posting on the last business day of the month. The revenues
received after that date will be posted within 30 days of receipt. Since
the close of business in March and prior to this press release,
approximately $1,161,000 in revenue has been received.
    Sabine Royalty Trust, as it does after the end of each year, had a
year- end Reserve Report prepared in accordance with the Securities and
Exchange Commission's requirements. This report provides an evaluation of
the estimated asset value as of December 31 of each year, which can be used
to estimate the remaining life of the Trust.
    The estimated net proved reserves, as of January 1, 2007, attributable
to the Trust from the properties appraised are approximately 5.8 million
barrels of oil and 35.3 billion cubic feet of gas with a future net value
of approximately $426,723,000.
    With the estimated quantities of this year's reserve estimate of 5.8
million barrels of oil and 35.3 billion cubic feet of gas remaining, it
could be estimated that the Trust still has a life span of 9 to 10 years.
The report is an exhibit to the Trust's Annual Report on Form 10-K that was
filed on in March 13, 2007 and is available to all unitholders at this time
on the SEC website.
