THE COMMITTEE TO MAXIMIZE
SHAREHOLDER VALUE AT
TOREADOR ROYALTY CORPORATION
MAY 16, 1995
DEAR FELLOW STOCKHOLDER:
THE ANNUAL MEETING OF TOREADOR ROYALTY IS ONLY TWO DAYS AWAY. WE URGE YOU TO
CONSIDER THE ISSUES CAREFULLY AND ASK YOURSELF WHETHER THE SO-CALLED "RESULTS"
THAT TOREADOR'S CURRENT MANAGEMENT TOUTS HAVE ANY REAL VALUE TO YOU AS A
SHAREHOLDER. WE BELIEVE THAT THE "STATISTICS" AND CHARTS MANAGEMENT HAS
PRESENTED ARE MEANT MERELY TO DIVERT YOU FROM THE NUMBERS THAT REALLY AFFECT YOU
AS A TOREADOR SHAREHOLDER. THE FACTS ARE THAT THE VALUE OF YOUR INVESTMENT, LIKE
OURS, WAS NOT INCREASED OVER THE LAST SEVEN YEARS.
WE URGE YOU TO VOTE FOR THE DIRECTORS NOMINATED BY THE COMMITTEE TO MAXIMIZE
SHAREHOLDER VALUE AT TOREADOR ROYALTY CORPORATION.
WHILE WE THINK THE PERFORMANCE OF TOREADOR MANAGEMENT IS THE ISSUE IN THIS
CAMPAIGN, YOU SHOULD KNOW THAT AN INVESTMENT IN DANE FALB & STONE'S BALANCED
PORTFOLIO COMPOSITE IN 1989 WOULD HAVE YIELDED A FAR BETTER RETURN THAN THE SAME
INVESTMENT IN TOREADOR OVER THAT PERIOD.
SINCE TIME IS SHORT AND YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT, WE HAVE MADE ARRANGEMENTS FOR
YOU TO VOTE BY TOLL FREE TELEGRAM. SIMPLY FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW.
THE COMMITTEE TO MAXIMIZE
SHAREHOLDER VALUE AT
