Dear Fellow Shareholder:

         Recently, we sent to you a proxy statement/prospectus and related
materials regarding the proposed merger of Newfield Exploration Company and EEX
Corporation. Included among the related materials was a BLUE Trust Units
Election Form and Letter of Transmittal (the "Election Form") for you to use
only if you wish to make an election to receive trust units of the Treasure
Island Royalty Trust in lieu of part or all of the Newfield common stock that
you would otherwise receive in the merger. The trust and the trust unit election
are described in detail in the proxy statement/prospectus.

         A number of shareholders have requested clarification about completing
the BLUE Election Form. Please note the following.

         IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO RECEIVE ANY TRUST UNITS IN THE MERGER, PLEASE DO
NOT SUBMIT THE BLUE ELECTION FORM OR MAIL IN YOUR STOCK CERTIFICATE(S) AT THIS
TIME. In that case, you will receive only shares of Newfield common stock (and
cash in lieu of fractional shares) in the merger. After the merger is complete,
you will receive instructions about exchanging your shares of EEX common stock.

         IF YOU DO WISH TO RECEIVE TRUST UNITS IN THE MERGER, PLEASE CAREFULLY
READ AND COMPLETE THE BLUE ELECTION FORM, AND MAIL IT TO THE EXCHANGE AGENT,
AMERICAN STOCK TRANSFER & TRUST COMPANY, WITH YOUR STOCK CERTIFICATE(S) IN THE
ENCLOSED BLUE ENVELOPE. Please refer to the instructions set forth in the
various boxes and on pages 10-13 of the Election Form for additional information
regarding the proper completion of the Election Form. IN PARTICULAR, YOU MUST:

     1.  Provide your name and address in Box A of the Election Form if no label
         is affixed or imprinted in Box A.

     2.  Complete Box B of the Election Form, including the last line. In the
         last line of Box B you must enter the total number of trust units you
         are electing to receive with respect to all of the shares of EEX common
         stock covered by your Election Form. Please note the following:

         o  The maximum number of trust units you may elect to receive is
            105.611 multiplied by the number of shares of EEX common stock
            covered by your Election Form, rounded down to the nearest whole
            trust unit. You may elect to receive anywhere from no trust units to
            the maximum, rounded down to the nearest whole trust unit. (Again,
            if you elect no trust units, you should not complete the BLUE
            Election Form.)

         o  IMPORTANT: IF YOU DO NOT TELL US HOW MANY UNITS YOU ARE ELECTING TO
            RECEIVE, YOUR ELECTION FORM WILL BE REJECTED AS INCOMPLETE, IN WHICH
            CASE YOU WILL NOT BE ALLOCATED ANY TRUST UNITS IN THE MERGER.

     3.  Complete Box E of the Election Form, in accordance with Instruction 9
         beginning on page 11 of the Election Form. Please do not forget to
         include a daytime telephone number where you can be reached if there
         are questions regarding your Election Form.

     4.  To avoid backup withholding, complete the Substitute Form W-9 included
         at the end of the Election Form.




     5.  Only if you require special issuance or delivery of the merger
         consideration:

         o  Complete Box C of the Election Form only if you want the merger
            consideration to be issued in the name of someone other than the
            record holder(s) listed in Box A.

         o  Complete Box D of the Election Form only if you want the merger
            consideration to be mailed to the record holder(s) listed in Box A
            at an address other than the one shown in Box A.

         o  Complete Box F of the Election Form only if you have completed Box C
            and/or Box D.

     6.  Complete Box G and Box H of the Election Form only if the instructions
         to Box B so request.

         FOR AN ELECTION TO BE VALID, THE ELECTION FORM, TOGETHER WITH THE OTHER
DOCUMENTS REQUIRED BY IT, MUST BE PROPERLY COMPLETED AND SIGNED AND RECEIVED BY
THE EXCHANGE AGENT PRIOR TO 5:00 P.M. (HOUSTON, TEXAS TIME) ON NOVEMBER 22,
2002. IF THE EXCHANGE AGENT DOES NOT RECEIVE YOUR PROPERLY COMPLETED ELECTION
FORM, TOGETHER WITH THE OTHER DOCUMENTS REQUIRED BY IT, PRIOR TO THE ELECTION
DEADLINE, YOUR ELECTION FORM WILL BE REJECTED. IN THAT EVENT, YOU WILL NOT BE
ALLOCATED ANY TRUST UNITS AND WILL INSTEAD RECEIVE ONLY SHARES OF NEWFIELD
COMMON STOCK (AND CASH IN LIEU OF FRACTIONAL SHARES) IN THE MERGER.

         If you need another copy of the Election Form and the related documents
for any reason, please contact the Information Agent, Innisfree M&A
Incorporated, toll-free at (888) 750-5835.

         If you have previously submitted an Election Form and would like to
revoke or change your election, you must notify the Exchange Agent in writing in
accordance with Instruction 2 on page 10 of the Election Form.

         If you have any other questions about the trust unit election or need
any assistance, please call the Information Agent toll-free at (888) 750-5835.

                                       Very truly yours,

                                       Thomas M Hamilton

                                       Chief Executive Officer
