Mesa Royalty Trust Announces Trust Income for November 2024

The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., Trustee
NEWS RELEASE
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
HOUSTON, TEXAS — November 19, 2024 — Mesa Royalty
Trust (the “Trust”) (NYSE symbol-MTR) announced today the Trust income distribution for the month of November 2024.
Unitholders of record on November 29, 2024 will receive distributions amounting to $0.003060770 per unit, payable on January 31,
2025. The Trust received $8,766.51 which came from the Colorado portion of the Trust’s San Juan Basin properties operated by SIMCOE
LLC, an affiliate of IKAV Energy Inc and $13,423.06 which came from the New Mexico portion of the Trust’s San Juan Basin properties
operated by Hilcorp San Juan LP, an affiliate of Hilcorp Energy Company. No income was received in November 2024 from any other working
interest owner. This month, after the Trust’s payment of administrative expenses, income from the distributable net profits was
$5,704.02.
The Trust was formed to own an overriding royalty interest of the
net proceeds attributable to certain producing oil and gas properties located in the Hugoton field of Kansas and the San Juan Basin fields
of New Mexico and Colorado. As described in the Trust's public filings, the amount of the monthly distributions is expected to fluctuate
from month to month, depending on the proceeds, if any, received by the Trust as a result of production, oil and natural gas prices and
the amount of the Trust’s administrative expenses, among other factors. In addition, as further described in the Trust’s
most recent filing on Form 10-Q, distributions to unitholders are expected to be materially reduced, until the Trust increases its
cash reserves to a total of $2.0 million in order to provide added liquidity.
Proceeds reported by the working interest owners for any month are
not generally representative of net proceeds that will be received by the Trust in future periods. As further described in the Trust’s
Form 10-K and Form 10-Q filings, production and development costs for the royalty interest have resulted in substantial accumulated
excess production costs, which will decrease Trust distributions, and in some periods may result in no Trust distributions. The amount
of proceeds, if any, received or expected to be received by the Trust (and its ability to pay distributions to unitholders) has been
and will continue to be directly affected, among other things, by volatility in the industry and revenues and expenses reported to the
Trust by working interest owners. Any additional expenses and adjustments, among other things, will reduce proceeds to the Trust, which
will reduce the amount of cash available for distribution to unitholders and in certain periods could result in no distributions to unitholders.
This press release contains forward-looking statements. No assurances
can be given that the expectations contained in this press release will prove to be correct. The working interest owners alone control
historical operating data, and handle receipt and payment of funds relating to the royalty properties and payments to the Trust for the
related royalty. The Trustee cannot assure that errors or adjustments or expenses accrued by the working interest owners, whether historical
or future, will not affect future royalty income and distributions by the Trust. Other important factors that could cause these
statements to differ materially include delays in actual results of drilling operations, risks inherent in drilling and production
of oil and gas properties, declines in commodity pricing, prices received by working interest owners and other risks described in the
Trust’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. Statements made in this press release are qualified by the cautionary
statements made in such risk factors. The Trust does not intend, and assumes no obligations, to update any of the statements included
in this press release. Each unitholder should consult its own tax advisor with respect to its particular circumstances.
