Red Bank, N.J.  January 31, 2019  -  The Trustees of North European Oil Royalty Trust (NYSE-NRT) announced today a quarterly distribution of $0.22 per unit for the first quarter of fiscal 2019, payable on February 27, 2019 to holders of record on February 15, 2019. Natural gas sold during the fourth calendar quarter of 2018 is the primary source of royalty income on which the February 2019 distribution is based.

John R.
