SABINE ROYALTY TRUST ANNOUNCES
MONTHLY CASH DISTRIBUTION FOR OCTOBER

     Dallas, Texas, October 5, 2010 — Sabine Royalty Trust (NYSE: SBR), today declared a cash distribution to the holders of its units of beneficial interest of $0.32425 per unit, payable on October 29, 2010, to unit holders of record on October 15, 2010. Sabine’s cash distribution history, current and prior year financial reports, a link to filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission and more can be found on its website at http://www.sbr-sabineroyalty.com/.

     This distribution reflects primarily the oil production for July 2010 and the gas production for June 2010. Preliminary production volumes are approximately 36,784 barrels of oil and 578,274 Mcf of gas. Preliminary average prices are approximately $72.26 per barrel of oil and $4.61 per Mcf of gas. The table below compares this month’s production and prices to the previous month’s:

	Net to Trust Sales
	Volumes				Average Price
	Oil		Gas		Oil		Gas
	(bbls)		(Mcf)		(per bbl)		(per Mcf)
Current Month		36,784		578,274	$	72.26	$	4.61
Prior Month		33,546		469,633	$	70.81	$	4.79

     Revenues are only posted and distributed when they are received. Most energy companies normally issue payment of royalties on or about the 25^th 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.

     Due to the timing of the end of the month of September, approximately $102,000 of revenue received will be posted in the following month of October in addition to normal receipts during October. Since the close of business in September and prior to this press release, approximately $1,189,000 in revenue has been received.
