PART I

Item 1. Business.

(a) General Development of Business. The registrant (hereinafter called “Texas Pacific” or the “Trust”) was organized under a Declaration of Trust, dated February 1, 1888, to receive and hold title to extensive tracts of land in the State of Texas, previously the property of the Texas and Pacific Railway Company, and to issue transferable Certificates of Proprietary Interest pro rata to the holders of certain debt securities of the Texas and Pacific Railway Company. The Trustees are empowered under the Declaration of Trust to manage the lands with all the powers of an absolute owner, and to use the lands and the proceeds of sale of the lands, either to pay dividends to the Certificate holders or to buy in and cancel outstanding Certificates. The Trust’s income is derived primarily from land sales, oil and gas royalties, easements and sundry income, grazing leases, and interest. This method of operation has continued through the present. During the last five years there has not been any reorganization, disposition of any material amount of assets not in the ordinary course of business (although in the ordinary course of business Texas Pacific does sell or lease large tracts of land owned by it), or any material change in the mode of conducting business.

Texas Pacific’s income from oil and gas royalties has been limited in the past by the level of production authorized for prorated wells each year by the regulations of the Railroad Commission of the State of Texas. The monthly percentage of allowable production has averaged 100% in recent years, but, because of the limited capacity of older wells and other operating problems, the percentage permitted by the Railroad Commission could not be produced by most operators.

(b) Financial Information about Industry Segments. Texas Pacific does not have identifiable industry segments, although, as shown in the Statements of Income and Total Comprehensive Income included in the financial statements incorporated by reference in Item 8 of this Report on Form 10-K (the “Report”), land sales, oil and gas royalties, easements and sundry income, grazing leases, and interest income are the major contributors to the income of Texas Pacific. The Trust’s management views its operations as one segment and believes the only significant activity is managing the land which was conveyed to the Trust in 1888. Managing the land includes sales and leases of such land and the retention of oil and gas royalties. See the Statements of Income and Total Comprehensive Income for additional sources of income for the last three (3) years of Texas Pacific.

(c) Narrative Description of Business. As previously indicated, the business done and intended to be done by Texas Pacific consists of sales and leases of land owned by it, retaining oil and gas royalties and the overall management of the land owned by it.

(i)

During the last three fiscal years each of the following items has accounted for at least fifteen percent (15%) of total revenues.

	2014		2013		2012
Oil and Gas Royalties		53%		56%		45%
Land Sales		*		15%		18%
Easements and Sundry Income		39%		28%		33%

*Denotes less than 15%

(ii)

Texas Pacific is not in the business of development of new products.

(iii)

Raw materials are not necessary to the business of Texas Pacific.

(iv)

Patents, trademarks, licenses, franchises or concessions held are not material to any business of Texas Pacific.

(v)

The business of Texas Pacific is not seasonal in nature, as that term is generally understood, although land sales may vary widely from year to year and quarter to quarter.

(vi)

The business of Texas Pacific does not require Texas Pacific to maintain any particular amount or item of working capital.

(vii)

During 2014, Texas Pacific received $7,458,887, or approximately 13.5 percent of its total revenues, which included $7,445,712, or approximately 25.4 percent of its oil and gas royalty income, from Chevron USA, Inc. Texas Pacific also received $8,603,192, or approximately 15.6 percent of its total revenues, which included $6,415,481, or approximately 21.9 percent of its oil and gas royalty income, and $2,187,711, or approximately 10.2 percent of its easements and sundry income, during 2014 from Anadarko E&P Onshore LLC.

(viii)

Backlogs are not relevant to an understanding of Texas Pacific’s business.

(ix)

No material portion of Texas Pacific’s business is subject to renegotiation or termination at the election of the Government.

(x)

The Trust does not have competitors, as such, in that it sells, leases and generally manages land owned by it and, to that extent, any owner of property located in areas comparable to the Trust is a potential competitor.

(xi)

Research activities relating to the development of new products or services or to the improvement of existing products or services are not material to the Trust’s business.

(xii)

Compliance with Federal, State and local provisions that have been enacted or adopted regulating the discharge of materials into the environment, or otherwise relating to the protection of the environment, have had no material effect upon the capital expenditures, earnings and competitive position of Texas Pacific. To date, Texas Pacific has not been called upon to expend any funds for these purposes.

(xiii)

As of February 27, 2015, Texas Pacific had eight (8) full-time employees.

(d) Financial Information about Geographic Areas. Texas Pacific does not have any foreign operations. For each of its last three fiscal years, all of the Trust’s revenues have been derived from, and all of its long-lived assets have been located in, the United States.

(e) Available Information. The Trust makes available, free of charge, on or through its Internet website copies of its Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and amendments to those reports as soon as reasonably practicable after they are electronically filed with, or furnished to, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). We maintain our website at http://www.TPLTrust.com. The information contained on our website is not part of this Report.

Item 1A: Risk Factors.

An investment in our securities involves a degree of risk. The risks described below are not the only ones facing us. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also have a material adverse effect on us. If any of the following risks actually occur, our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or business could be harmed. In that case, the market price of our securities could decline and you could lose part or all of your investment.

Global economic conditions may materially and adversely affect our business.

Our business and results of operations are affected by international, national and regional economic conditions. A recurrence of recessionary conditions in the United States and elsewhere may lead to reduced industrial production which, in turn, may lead to lower demand and lower prices for oil and gas, which may adversely affect our results of operations.

The Trust’s oil and gas royalty revenue is dependent upon the market prices of oil and gas which fluctuate.

The oil and gas royalties which the Trust receives are dependent upon the market prices for oil and gas. The market prices for oil and gas are subject to national and international economic and political conditions and, in the past, have been subject to significant price fluctuations. Price fluctuations for oil and gas have been particularly volatile in recent years. Although the Trust’s oil and gas royalties benefited from the substantial increases in the market prices for oil and gas, the current trend toward lower market prices for oil and gas will have an adverse effect on our oil and gas royalty revenues.

The Trust is not an oil and gas producer. Its revenues from oil and gas royalties are subject to the actions of others.

The Trust is not an oil and gas producer. Its oil and gas income is derived from perpetual non-participating oil and gas royalty interests which it has retained. As wells age the costs of production may increase and their capacity may decline absent additional investment. However, the owners and operators of the oil and gas wells make all decisions as to investments in, and production from, those wells and the Trust’s royalties will be dependent upon decisions made by those operators, among other factors. The Railroad Commission of the State of Texas sets authorized production levels for pro rated wells by regulation. The monthly percentage of allowable production has averaged 100% in recent years. However, in the past the Trust’s income from oil and gas royalties has been limited by the production levels authorized by the Railroad Commission and we cannot assure you that they may not be so limited in the future.

Our revenues from the sale of land are subject to substantial fluctuation. We are a passive seller of land and land sales are subject to many factors that are beyond our control.

Land sales vary widely from year to year and quarter to quarter. The total dollar amount, the average price per acre, and the number of acres sold in any one year or quarter should not be assumed to be indicative of land sales in the future. The Trust is a passive seller of land and does not actively solicit sales of land. The demand for, and the sale price of, any particular tract of the Trust’s land is influenced by many factors, including the national and local economies, the rate of residential and commercial development in nearby areas, livestock carrying capacity and the condition of the local agricultural industry, which itself is influenced by range conditions and prices for livestock and agricultural products. Approximately 99% of the Trust’s land is classified as ranch land and intermingled with parcels owned by third parties to form ranching units. The Trust’s ability to sell ranch land is, therefore, largely dependent on the actions of adjoining landowners.

The Trust’s remaining holdings of land in metropolitan areas are limited.

The sale price of land suitable for development in metropolitan areas is generally substantially higher than the price of land in rural or ranching areas. The Trust’s remaining holdings of land suitable for development in metropolitan areas are limited.

If the liability of holders of Certificates of Proprietary Interest and Sub-shares were to be found to be governed by the laws of Texas, holders of Certificates of Proprietary Interest and Sub-shares might be held to have personal liability for claims against the Trust, to the extent such claims exceeded the assets of the Trust.

The Declaration of Trust which established the Trust was executed and delivered in New York. Under the laws of the State of New York, the holders of Certificates of Proprietary Interest and Sub-shares are not subject to any personal liability for the acts or obligations of the Trust. The assets of the Trust are located in Texas. Under the laws of the State of Texas the holders of Certificates of Proprietary Interest and Sub-shares may be held personally liable with respect to claims against the Trust, but only after the assets of the Trust first have been exhausted. Thus, if a court were to hold that the liability of holders of Certificates of Proprietary Interest and Sub-shares for obligations is governed by the laws of Texas, rather than New York, it is possible that holders of Certificates of Proprietary Interest and Sub-shares might be held to have personal liability for claims against the Trust to the extent such claims exceeded all of the Trust’s assets.

The Trustees are not subject to annual election and, as a result, the ability of the holders of Certificates of Proprietary Interest and Sub-shares to influence the policies of the Trust may be limited.

Directors of a corporation are generally subject to election at each annual meeting of stockholders or, in the case of staggered boards, at regular intervals. Under the Declaration of Trust, however, the Trust is not required to hold annual meetings of holders of Certificates of Proprietary Interest and Sub-shares to elect Trustees and Trustees generally hold office until their death, resignation or disqualification. As a result, the ability of holders of Certificates of Proprietary Interest and Sub-shares to effect changes in the Board of Trustees, and the policies of the Trust, is significantly more limited than that of the stockholders of a corporation.

Our results of operations for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of our results of operations for a full year.

Sales of land fluctuate from quarter to quarter. Revenues from oil and gas royalties may also fluctuate from quarter to quarter based upon market prices for oil and gas and production decisions made by the operators. As a result, the results of our operations for any particular quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for a full year.

Item 1B: Unresolved Staff Comments.

Not Applicable.

Item 2: Properties.

As of February 15, 2015, Texas Pacific Land Trust owned the surface estate in approximately 889,022 acres of land, comprised of numerous separate tracts, located in 18 counties in the western part of Texas. There were no material liens or encumbrances on the Trust’s title to the surface estate in those tracts.

The Trust also owns a 1/128 nonparticipating perpetual oil and gas royalty interest under 85,414 acres of land and a 1/16 nonparticipating perpetual oil and gas royalty interest under 373,777 acres of land in the western part of Texas. Generally speaking, if the Trust sells the surface estate in real property with respect to which it holds a perpetual oil and gas royalty interest, that oil and gas royalty interest is excluded from the sale and retained by the Trust.

At December 31, 2014, grazing leases were in effect on over 99 percent or approximately 907,588 acres of the Trust’s land. The Trust regularly enters into grazing leases with many different local ranchers which grant the ranch owner lessees the right to graze livestock on the Trust’s properties. These leases are generally in a standard form common in the locality. Grazing leases are generally entered into for terms ranging from three (3) to five (5) years. The Trust generally retains the right to cancel a grazing lease upon thirty (30) days notice in the event of a sale of the land. No individual grazing lease is material to the Trust.

Approximately 1,950 acres of land and 310 town lots, totaling approximately 21 acres, were sold in 2014.

The Trust leases office space in Dallas, Texas.

Item 3: Legal Proceedings.

Texas Pacific is not involved in any material pending legal proceedings.

Item 4: Mine Safety Disclosures.

Not Applicable.

PART II

Item 5: Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Security Holder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities.

The principal United States market on which Sub-shares in the Trust’s Certificates of Proprietary Interest are traded is the New York Stock Exchange, under the symbol “TPL”. The range of reported sale prices for Sub-shares on the New York Stock Exchange for each quarterly period during the past two fiscal years was as follows:

	2014				2013
	High		Low		High		Low

1st Quarter	$	147.80	$	93.00	$	70.91	$	51.14
2nd Quarter	$	173.86	$	125.00	$	88.91	$	67.43
3rd Quarter	$	242.00	$	157.98	$	93.75	$	79.60
4th Quarter	$	193.70	$	103.57	$	101.39	$	82.44

Certificates of Proprietary Interest and Sub-shares are interchangeable in the ratio of one Certificate for 3,000 Sub-shares or 3,000 Sub-shares for one Certificate of Proprietary Interest. Texas Pacific has paid a cash dividend each year for the preceding 58 years. The cash dividend was $.27 per Sub-share in 2014 and was paid during the first quarter of the year. In December 2012, the Trust determined to accelerate the declaration and payment of the annual dividend for 2013, which would normally have occurred in the first quarter of 2013, to the fourth quarter of 2012. Accordingly, a cash dividend of $.25 for 2013 was declared and paid in the fourth quarter of 2012. Texas Pacific is not a party to any agreement that would limit its ability to pay dividends in the future, although any future dividends are subject to the discretion of the Board of Trustees and will depend upon the Trust’s earnings, capital requirements and financial position, applicable requirements of law, general economic conditions and other factors considered relevant by the Board of Trustees.

The approximate numbers of holders of Certificates of Proprietary Interest and Sub-shares, respectively, as of January 31, 2015, were as follows:

Certificates of Proprietary Interest			–
Sub-shares in Certificates of Proprietary Interest			326
TOTAL			326

The Trust has not incorporated equity-related compensation elements in its compensation programs. During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Trust did not sell any equity securities.

During the fourth quarter of 2014, the Trust repurchased Sub-share certificates as follows:

Item 7: Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion and analysis should be read together with the factors discussed in Item 1A “Risk Factors” and with the Financial Statements, including the Notes thereto, and the other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Report. Period-to-period comparisons of financial data are not necessarily indicative, and therefore should not be relied upon as indicators, of the Trust’s future performance. Words or phrases such as “does not believe” and “believes,” or similar expressions, when used in this Form 10-K or other filings with the SEC, are intended to identify “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

Overview

The Trust was organized in 1888 and holds title to extensive tracts of land in numerous West Texas counties which were previously the property of the Texas and Pacific Railway Company. We continue to manage those lands for the benefit of the holders of Certificates of Proprietary Interest in the Trust. Our revenues are derived primarily from sales of land, oil and gas royalties, easements and sundry income, grazing leases of the land and interest. Due to the nature of our operations, our revenue is subject to substantial fluctuations from quarter to quarter and year to year. We are a passive seller of land and do not actively solicit sales of land. In addition, the demand for, and sale price of, particular tracts of land is influenced by many factors beyond our control, including general economic conditions, the rate of development in nearby areas and the suitability of the particular tract for the ranching uses prevalent in western Texas. The Trust is not an oil and gas producer. Rather, its oil and gas revenue is derived from retained perpetual non-participating oil and gas royalty interests. Thus, in addition to being subject to fluctuations in response to the market prices for oil and gas, our oil and gas royalty revenues are also subject to decisions made by the owners and operators of the oil wells to which our royalty interests relate as to investments in and production from those wells. We monitor production reports by the oil and gas companies to assure that we are being paid the appropriate royalties. We review conditions in the agricultural industry in the areas in which our lands are located and seek to keep as much of our lands as possible under lease to local ranchers at competitive rates. In recent years, we have been successful at keeping over 98% of our land subject to grazing leases.

Results of Operations

The Trust’s primary sources of income are revenue derived from sales of land, either for cash or a combination of cash and mortgage notes, and revenue derived from the Trust’s land and mineral interests.

2014 Compared to 2013

Total operating and investing revenues in 2014 aggregated $55,216,753, an increase of $11,095,674, or 25.1%, from the $44,121,079 of total operating and investing revenues recorded in 2013. This increase resulted primarily from increases in easements and sundry income and oil and gas royalty revenue. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in land sales and interest income from notes receivable. Earnings per Sub-share certificate were $4.14 for 2014 compared to $3.16 in 2013. The Trust purchased and retired 150,803 Sub-shares during 2014, leaving 8,322,399 Sub-shares outstanding at December 31, 2014.

Land sales in 2014 were $3,698,312 compared to $6,413,588 in 2013, a decrease of $2,715,276, or 42.3%. A total of 1,950 acres were sold in 2014 at an average price of $1,897 per acre, compared to 10,399 acres in 2013 at an average price per acre of $617.

Rentals, royalties and other income (including interest on investments) were $51,518,441 in 2014 compared to $37,707,491 in 2013, an increase of 36.6%.

Oil and gas royalty revenue in 2014 was $29,346,103 compared to $24,496,851 in 2013, an increase of 19.8%. Oil royalty revenue was $22,766,264 and gas royalty revenue was $6,579,839 in 2014. Crude oil production from Trust royalty wells increased 19.8% in 2014 from 2013. The average prices per royalty barrel of crude oil for 2014 and 2013 were $87.28 and $91.56, respectively. Total gas production increased 28.6%, and the average price of gas increased by 11.9% in 2014 compared to 2013.

Grazing lease income in 2014 was $500,292 compared to $494,210 in 2013.

Interest revenue (including interest on investments) was $154,814 in 2014 compared to $496,243 in 2013, a decrease of 68.8%. Interest on notes receivable amounted to $140,291 in 2014 compared to $484,238 in 2013. At year end 2014, notes receivable from land sales were $923,115 compared to $3,887,906 at year end 2013. Interest on investments amounted to $14,523 in 2014 and $12,005 in 2013, respectively. Total principal cash payments on notes receivable were $2,964,791 in 2014 including $1,764,928 of prepaid principal.

Easements and sundry income revenue in 2014 was $21,517,232 compared to $12,220,187 in 2013. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in the amount of pipeline easement income to $9,185,050 for 2014, an increase of $6,024,520, or 190.6%, from the $3,160,530 received in 2013. Sundry income, seismic easement income, and, to a lesser extent, sundry lease rental income also increased in 2014 compared to 2013 due to an increase in drilling and exploration activity on land owned by the Trust. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in pole line easement income. Easements and sundry income is unpredictable and may vary significantly from period to period.

Taxes, other than income taxes, were $1,692,256 in 2014 compared to $1,420,635 in 2013. Oil and gas production taxes were $1,540,735 in 2014 compared to $1,259,287 in 2013. Ad valorem taxes were $97,054 in 2014 compared to $99,984 in 2013. All other expenses were $2,092,943 in 2014 compared to $2,557,866 in 2013. This decrease resulted primarily from decreases in salaries and related employee benefits expense and legal and professional fees expense.

2013 Compared to 2012

Total operating and investing revenues in 2013 aggregated $44,121,079, an increase of $11,514,188, or 35.3%, from the $32,606,891 of total operating and investing revenues recorded in 2012. This increase resulted primarily from increases in oil and gas royalty revenue, easements and sundry income, and land sales. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in interest income from notes receivable. Earnings per Sub-share certificate were $3.16 for 2013 compared to $2.20 in 2012. The Trust purchased and retired 322,056 Sub-shares during 2013, leaving 8,473,202 Sub-shares outstanding at December 31, 2013.

Land sales in 2013 were $6,413,588 compared to $5,809,747 in 2012, an increase of $603,841, or 10.4%. A total of 10,399 acres were sold in 2013 at an average price of $617 per acre, compared to 7,252 acres in 2012 at an average price per acre of $801.

Rentals, royalties and other income (including interest on investments) were $37,707,491 in 2013 compared to $26,797,144 in 2012, an increase of 40.7%.

Oil and gas royalty revenue in 2013 was $24,496,851 compared to $14,670,915 in 2012, an increase of 67.0%. Oil royalty revenue was $19,930,212 and gas royalty revenue was $4,566,639 in 2013. Crude oil production from Trust royalty wells increased 60.6% in 2013 from 2012. The average prices per royalty barrel of crude oil for 2013 and 2012 were $91.56 and $87.56, respectively. Total gas production increased 47.7%, and the average price of gas increased by 10.6% in 2013 compared to 2012.

Grazing lease income in 2013 was $494,210 compared to $488,694 in 2012.

Interest revenue (including interest on investments) was $496,243 in 2013 compared to $725,687 in 2012, a decrease of 31.6%. Interest on notes receivable amounted to $484,238 in 2013 compared to $706,252 in 2012. At year end 2013, notes receivable from land sales were $3,887,906 compared to $8,370,984 at year end 2012. Interest on investments amounted to $12,005 in 2013 and $19,435 in 2012, respectively. Total principal cash payments on notes receivable were $4,483,078 in 2013 including $2,736,616 of prepaid principal.

Easements and sundry income revenue in 2013 was $12,220,187 compared to $10,911,848 in 2012. The increase in easements and sundry income revenue was primarily attributable to increases in the amount of sundry income, sundry lease rental income, and, to a lesser extent, pole line easement income received in 2013 compared to 2012 due to an increase in drilling and exploration activity on land owned by the Trust. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in seismic easement income. Easements and sundry income is unpredictable and may vary significantly from period to period.

Taxes, other than income taxes, were $1,420,635 in 2013 compared to $941,757 in 2012. Oil and gas production taxes were $1,259,287 in 2013 compared to $756,076 in 2012. Ad valorem taxes were $99,984 in 2013 compared to $128,391 in 2012. All other expenses were $2,557,866 in 2013 compared to $2,342,248 in 2012.

Liquidity

The Trust’s principal sources of liquidity are its revenues from oil and gas royalties, easements and sundry income, and land sales. In the past, these sources have generated more than adequate amounts of cash to meet the Trust’s needs and, in the opinion of management, should continue to do so in the foreseeable future.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Trust has not engaged in any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Tabular Disclosure of Contractual Obligations

Effects of Inflation

We do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our operating results. We cannot assure you, however, that future increases in our costs will not occur or that any such increases that may occur will not adversely affect our results of operations.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. It is our opinion that we fully disclose our significant accounting policies in the Notes to the Financial Statements. Consistent with our disclosure policies, we include the following discussion related to what we believe to be our most critical accounting policies that require our most difficult, subjective or complex judgment.

Valuation of Notes Receivable - Management of the Trust monitors delinquencies to assess the propriety of the carrying value of its notes receivable. At the point in time that notes receivable become delinquent, management reviews the operations information of the debtor and the estimated fair value of the collateral held as security to determine whether an allowance for losses is required. Any required allowance for losses is recorded in the period of determination. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, there were no significant delinquencies and, as such, no allowances for losses have been recorded.

Valuation of Real Estate Acquired Through Foreclosure - The value of real estate acquired through foreclosure is established at the lower of cost or fair value less disposition costs at the date of foreclosure. Cost is considered to be the aggregate of the outstanding principal and interest, past due ad valorem taxes and other fees associated with the foreclosure. Subsequent to the foreclosure date, valuations are periodically performed or obtained by management when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the full carrying amount may not be recoverable. At such time, a valuation allowance is established to reduce the carrying value to the estimated fair value. Valuation of the real estate is based on the estimates of management and is subject to judgment. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, no valuation allowances were recorded.

Gain Recognition on Land Sales - Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America dictate the manner in which the gain or loss on the sale of land is recorded. The Trust has established policies for the sale of land which result in the full accrual method of gain recognition. This policy generally requires that the Trust receive a minimum cash down payment of 25% of the sales price on each sale and that any related notes receivable require regular principal and interest payments, payable over terms from 5 to 15 years.

Item 7A: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

The Trust’s primary market risk exposure relates to changes in interest rates related to its notes receivable. To limit the impact of interest rate changes, the Trust enters into fixed rate notes receivable that approximate the current interest rate for land sales at the time. As a result, the Trust’s only interest rate risk is the opportunity loss should interest rates increase. The following table summarizes expected maturities of the Trust’s notes receivable. As the interest rates represent rates which management believes are current rates on similar land sales, the Trust believes the fair values of its notes receivable approximate the carrying amounts.

Year Ending December 31,	Maturity
2015	$	75,185
2016		76,379
2017		81,894
2018		87,808
2019		94,124
Thereafter		507,725
	$	923,115

The Trust’s remaining financial instruments consist of cash, accounts payable and other liabilities and the carrying amounts of these instruments approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Item 8: Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

See the Index to Financial Statements included in Item 15. The Financial Statements listed therein are incorporated herein by reference to pages F-1 through F-20 of this Report on Form 10-K.

Item 9: Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

Not applicable.

Item 9A: Controls and Procedures.

(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

Pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, management of the Trust under the supervision and with the participation of David M. Peterson, the Trust’s Chief Executive Officer, and Robert J. Packer, the Trust’s Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Trust’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the Trust’s fiscal year covered by this Report on Form 10-K. Based upon that evaluation, Mr. Peterson and Mr. Packer concluded that the Trust’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Trust required to be included in the Trust’s periodic SEC filings.

Effective December 1, 2014, Mr. Packer was appointed as Chief Financial Officer of the Trust. Prior to December 1, 2014, Mr. Packer, a certified public accountant, served as Accounting Supervisor for the Trust since March 2011.

(b) Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

Management of the Trust is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Management has assessed the effectiveness of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014 using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013). Based on that assessment, management believes that the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2014.

The Trust’s independent registered public accountants have issued an audit report on the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. This audit report appears on page F-1 of this Report.

(d) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

There were no changes in the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting.

Item 9B: Other Information.

Not applicable.

PART III

Item 10: Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance.

(a) Trustees:

Name	Age	Position and Offices Held With Registrant	Period During Which Person Has Served in Office

Maurice Meyer III	79	Trustee, Chairman of the Trustees, Chairman of Audit Committee and Member of Nominating, Compensation and Governance Committee	Trustee since February 28, 1991; Chairman of Trustees since May 28, 2003.

John R. Norris III	61	Trustee and Member of Nominating, Compensation and Governance Committee	Trustee since June 7, 2000.

James K. Norwood	73	Trustee, Member of Audit Committee and Member of Nominating, Compensation and Governance Committee	Trustee since June 14, 2006.

We believe Mr. Meyer’s qualifications to serve as a Trustee include the wealth of knowledge and understanding concerning the Trust which he has gained in his twenty-four (24) years of service as a Trustee. In addition, prior to his retirement, he spent his entire career in the securities industry which enables him to bring particularized expertise to provide guidance and assistance to management in administering the Trust’s Sub-share repurchase program prescribed by the terms of the Declaration of Trust.

We believe Mr. Norris’ qualifications to serve as a Trustee include his legal expertise and extensive background as a practicing attorney in Dallas which allows him to provide counsel and insight to his fellow Trustees and management with respect to the various legal issues which the Trust faces. In addition to his fourteen (14) years experience as a Trustee, Mr. Norris advised the Trust on legal matters for many years prior to his election as a Trustee.

We believe Mr. Norwood’s extensive experience as a real estate appraiser in Texas makes him particularly well-suited to serve as a Trustee. The Trust is a large landholder and Mr. Norwood’s real estate expertise is invaluable to the Trust in administering its holdings including its leasing and sale of land.

(b) Executive Officers:

Name	Age	Position and Offices Held With Registrant	Period During Which Person Has Served in Office
David M. Peterson	49	General Agent, Chief Executive Officer and Secretary	General Agent, Chief Executive Officer and Secretary of the Trust from January 1, 2014. Mr. Peterson had previously served as Assistant General Agent from January 1, 1997 through December 31, 2013 and Chief Financial Officer from November 12, 2002 through December 1, 2014.

Robert J. Packer	45	Chief Financial Officer	Chief Financial Officer of the Trust from December 1, 2014. Mr. Packer had previously served as Accounting Supervisor from March 21, 2011 through December 1, 2014.

The Trustees hold office until their death, resignation or disqualification. The General Agent, Chief Executive Officer and Secretary and the Chief Financial Officer hold office until their death, resignation, discharge or retirement pursuant to the Texas Pacific Land Trust Revised Employees’ Pension Plan. No executive officer was selected to be an officer pursuant to any arrangement or understanding between him and any other person or persons other than the Trustees acting solely in their capacity as such.

(c) Certain Significant Employees. The Trust does not employ any person who is not an executive officer who makes or is expected to make significant contributions to the business of the Trust.

(d) Family Relations. There are no family relationships among any of the Trustees and executive officers of the Trust.

(e) Business Experience.

Name of Trustee or Executive Officer		Principal Occupation or Employment During the Past Five Years
Maurice Meyer III		Former Vice Chairman of Henderson Brothers; personal investments

John R. Norris III		Attorney; Calloway, Norris, Burdette & Weber, PLLC, Dallas, Texas

James K. Norwood		Licensed Real Estate Appraiser; James K. Norwood, Inc.

David M. Peterson		General Agent, Chief Executive Officer and Secretary commencing January 1, 2014; Assistant General Agent and Chief Financial Officer of Texas Pacific Land Trust

Robert J. Packer		Chief Financial Officer commencing December 1, 2014; Accounting Supervisor of Texas Pacific Land Trust; Controller at StarCrest Realty, LLC

(f) Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings. During the past ten years, no Trustee or executive officer has been involved in any event reportable under this caption.

(g) Promoters and Control Persons. Not applicable.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Trustees, the Trust’s executive officers and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of its Sub-share Certificates to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the Commission and to furnish the Trust with copies of all such reports they file. Based on the Trust’s review of the copies of such forms received by it, or written representations from certain reporting persons, the Trust believes that none of its Trustees, executive officers or persons who beneficially own more than 10% of the Sub-share Certificates failed to comply with Section 16(a) reporting requirements in 2014.

Code of Ethics

The Trust has adopted a Code of Conduct and Ethics applicable to its Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and certain other employees. A copy of the Code of Ethics has been made available on the Trust’s corporate website. We maintain our website at http://www.TPLTrust.com. The information contained on our website is not part of this Report.

Changes in Procedures Regarding Nomination of Trustees

There have been no material changes to the procedures by which security holders may recommend nominees to the Trust’s Board of Trustees. The Trust has a standing Nominating, Compensation and Governance Committee. The current members of the Nominating, Compensation and Governance Committee are Messrs. Meyer, Norris and Norwood. The Nominating, Compensation and Governance Committee has adopted a formal written charter (the “Nominating, Compensation and Governance Charter”). The Nominating, Compensation and Governance Committee is responsible for identifying and evaluating potential trustees in the event that a vacancy arises, determining compensation of the Trustees and the executive officers, and overseeing corporate governance matters. The Nominating, Compensation and Governance Charter is available on the Company’s Internet website at http://www.TPLTrust.com.

Audit Committee

The Trust has a standing Audit Committee of its Board of Trustees. The current members of the Audit Committee are Messrs. Meyer and Norwood. The Audit Committee has adopted a formal written charter (the “Audit Charter”). The Audit Committee is responsible for ensuring that the Company has adequate internal controls and is required to meet with the Company’s auditors to review these internal controls and to discuss other financial reporting matters. The Audit Committee is also responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the auditors. The Audit Charter is available on the Company’s Internet website at http://www.TPLTrust.com.

Audit Committee Financial Expert

The Board of Trustees has determined that no current member of the Board of Trustees serving on the Trust’s Audit Committee would meet the requirements of the definition of “audit committee financial expert” set forth in the applicable rules of the SEC. The terms of the Trust, which was established in 1888, and governing law would require an amendment of the Trust in order to add new Trustees who would satisfy the requirements of the definition. Any amendment of the Trust to do so would necessarily involve judicial proceedings and an expensive time-consuming process with no assurance that an individual meeting the requirements of the definition, who would be willing to serve as Trustee given the modest compensation offered ($2,000 per annum, $4,000 per annum for the Chairman), could be located. The Audit Committee consists of two independent Trustees, each of whom has been determined by the Board of Trustees to be qualified, in their judgment, to monitor the performance of management, the Trust’s internal accounting operations and the independent auditors and to be qualified to monitor the disclosures of the Trust. In addition, the Audit Committee has the ability to retain its own independent accountants, attorneys and other advisors, whenever it deems appropriate, to advise it. As a result, the Board of Trustees believes that the time and expense involved in an amendment of the Trust, with no assurance that an individual meeting the requirements of the definition of “audit committee financial expert” could be persuaded to become a member of the Board of Trustees, would not be in the best interests of the Trust at this time.

Item 11: Executive Compensation.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

The Trust’s compensation program is designed to reward the performance of the Named Executive Officers in achieving the Trust’s primary goals of protecting and maintaining the assets of the Trust. The compensation program consists principally of a salary and an annual cash bonus. Base salaries provide our Named Executive Officers with a steady income stream that is not contingent on the Trust’s performance, while the addition of a cash bonus allows the Nominating, Compensation and Governance Committee flexibility to recognize and reward the Named Executive Officers’ contributions to the Trust’s performance in a given year. Salaries are reviewed annually and salary increases and the amounts of cash bonuses are determined by the Nominating, Compensation and Governance Committee of the Trustees based upon an evaluation of the Named Executive Officer’s performance against the goals and objectives of the Trust. Differences in salary for the Named Executive Officers may reflect the differing responsibilities of their respective positions, the differing levels of experience of the individuals and internal pay equity considerations. The Nominating, Compensation and Governance Committee does not have a specific list of factors to which it assigns various weights and against which it measures the Named Executive Officers’ performance in making its compensation decisions. The Committee’s decisions are based on their overall impression of the Named Executive Officers’ individual performances.

The Trust has not incorporated equity-related or other long-term compensation elements in its compensation programs. The Declaration of Trust pursuant to which the Trust was created empowers the Trustees to use the lands originally contributed to the Trust either to pay dividends to the certificate holders or to repurchase and cancel outstanding certificates. In view of that general directive to the Trustees, the issuance of equity to executive officers has not been made a part of the Trust’s compensation program.

As part of its compensation program the Trust maintains both a qualified defined benefit pension plan and a qualified defined contribution plan which are both available to employees generally, as well as the Named Executive Officers. These plans are designed to assist employees in planning adequately for their retirement.

The Nominating, Compensation and Governance Committee has the sole authority to determine the compensation of the General Agent and Chief Executive Officer of the Trust. The Committee obtains and considers recommendations from the General Agent in connection with its review and approval of the annual compensation, including the amount of annual bonus, paid to the Chief Financial Officer.

Since the Trust was not required to, and did not, hold an annual or other meeting of certificate holders during 2014 at which Trustees were elected, the Trust was not required to conduct an advisory vote of certificate holders to approve the compensation of its Named Executive Officers.

Summary Compensation Table

The following table sets forth information concerning compensation for services in all capacities awarded to, earned by, or paid to, the Trust’s Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer, who are its only executive officers (collectively, the “Named Executive Officers”):

Name and Position	Year	Salary ($)		Bonus ($)		Change in Actuarial Present Value of Accumulated Benefits ($)(1)		All Other Compensation ($)(2)(3)		Total ($)
David M. Peterson	2014	$	208,750	$	40,000	$	152,379	$	12,525	$	413,654
General Agent, Chief	2013	$	172,917	$	38,000	$	0	$	10,375	$	221,292
Executive Officer	2012	$	163,125	$	30,000	$	55,804	$	9,788	$	258,717
and Secretary

Robert J. Packer	2014	$	106,667	$	20,000	$	14,600	$	6,400	$	147,667
Chief Financial	2013	$	95,833	$	12,500	$	5,257	$	5,750	$	119,340
Officer	2012	$	90,833	$	10,000	$	3,338	$	4,175	$	108,346

(1)

Represents the aggregate change in the actuarial present value of the Named Executive Officer’s accumulated benefit under all defined benefit and actuarial pension plans (including supplemental plans) from the pension plan measurement date used for financial statement reporting purposes with respect to the Trust’s audited financial statements for the prior completed fiscal year to the pension plan measurement date used for financial statement reporting purposes with respect to the Trust’s audited financial statements for the covered fiscal year. For Mr. Peterson, the actual change for 2013 is ($7,987). Overall, the increase for 2014 is larger than previous years due to an update in the mortality assumptions and decrease in the discount rate used to calculate the value of the benefits.

(2)	Represents contributions by the Trust to the account of the Named Executive Officer under the Trust’s defined contribution retirement plan.

(3)	The aggregate value of the perquisites and other personal benefits, if any, received by the Named Executive Officer for all years presented have not been reflected in the table because the amount was below the Securities and Exchange Commission’s $10,000 threshold for disclosure.

Pension Benefits

Name	Plan Name	Number of Years Credited Service		Actuarial Present Value of Accumulated Benefit ($)		Payments during Last Fiscal Year
David M. Peterson	Texas Pacific Land Trust Revised Employees’ Pension Plan		19.5	$	366,025	$	0
Robert J. Packer	Texas Pacific Land Trust Revised Employees’ Pension Plan		2.5	$	23,195	$	0

The Texas Pacific Land Trust Revised Employees’ Pension Plan is a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan qualified under Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code in which the employees, excluding the Trustees, participate. The remuneration covered by the Plan is Salary. The Plan provides a normal retirement benefit equal to 1.5% of a participant’s average Salary for the last five years prior to retirement for each year of Credited Service under the Plan. Credited Service is earned from the participant’s date of membership in the Plan, which is generally not the participant’s date of hire by the Trust. For information concerning the valuation method and material assumptions used in quantifying the present value of the Named Executive Officers’ current accrued benefits, see Note 5 of the Notes to Financial Statements incorporated by reference in Item 8 of this Report.

As of December 31, 2014, the annual accrued normal retirement benefits are estimated to be $48,918 and $3,599 for Mr. Peterson and Mr. Packer, respectively.

The Plan provides for early retirement after 20 years of service with the Trust. Early retirement benefits are calculated in the same manner as the normal retirement benefit, but are reduced by 1/15 for each of the first five years and 1/30 for each of the next five years that benefits commence prior to normal retirement. If benefits commence more than 10 years prior to normal retirement, the early retirement benefit payable at age 55 is reduced actuarially for the period prior to age 55. Mr. Peterson and Mr. Packer are not currently eligible for early retirement benefits.

Trustee Compensation Table

Name	Fees Earned or Paid in Cash ($) (1)		Total ($)
Maurice Meyer III	$	4,000	$	4,000
John R. Norris III	$	2,000	$	2,000
James K. Norwood	$	2,000	$	2,000

(1)	As Chairman, Mr. Meyer receives $4,000 annually for his services as Chairman of the Trustees. Each of the other Trustees receives $2,000 annually for his services as such.

Employment Agreements

The Trust is not a party to any employment agreements with any of its Named Executive Officers. There is no compensation plan or arrangement with respect to any individual named in the Summary Compensation Table that results, or will result, from the resignation, retirement or any other termination of such individual’s employment or from a change in control of Texas Pacific or from a change in the individual’s responsibilities following a change in control of Texas Pacific.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

Each of the Trustees is a member of the Nominating, Compensation and Governance Committee of the Trustees. None of the Trustees is, or has been in the past, an officer or employee of the Trust. None of the Trustees had any relationship requiring disclosure by the Trust pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-K. There are no interlocking relationships requiring disclosure by the Trust pursuant to Item 407(e)(4)(iii) of Regulation S-K.

Compensation Committee Report

The Nominating, Compensation and Governance Committee has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section of this Item 11 and, based on such review and discussion, recommended that it be included in this Report.

(b) Security Ownership of Management: The following table sets forth information as to equity securities (Certificates of Proprietary Interest and Sub-share Certificates) beneficially owned directly or indirectly by all Trustees, naming them, and by all Trustees and executive officers of the registrant, as a group:

Title and Class (1)	Name of Beneficial Owner	Amount and Nature of Ownership on February 27, 2015			Percent of Class
Sub-share certificates:	Maurice Meyer III		74,750	(2)		*

Sub-share certificates:	John R. Norris III		1,000			*

Sub-share certificates:	James K. Norwood		1,600			*

Sub-share certificates:	David M. Peterson		50			*

Sub-share certificates:	Robert J. Packer		--			--

Sub-share certificates:	All Trustees and Officers as a Group		77,400			0.9	%

*Indicates ownership of less than 1% of the class.

(1)

The Certificates of Proprietary Interest and Sub-share Certificates are freely interchangeable in the ratio of one Certificate of Proprietary Interest for 3,000 Sub-shares or 3,000 Sub-shares for one Certificate of Proprietary Interest, and are deemed to constitute a single class. The figures set forth in the table represent Sub-share certificates. On February 27, 2015, no Trustee or executive officer was the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of any Certificates of Proprietary Interest.

(2)	Does not include 11,500 Sub-shares owned by the wife of Mr. Meyer with respect to which Mr. Meyer disclaims any beneficial ownership.

(c) Changes in Control. Texas Pacific has no knowledge of any arrangement that may result in any change of control of the Trust.

Item 13: Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.

(a) Transactions with Related Persons. There are no reportable transactions or currently proposed transactions between Texas Pacific and any Trustee or executive officer of Texas Pacific or any security holder of Texas Pacific or any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons.

(b) Review, Approval or Ratification of Transactions with Related Persons. Transactions with Trustees, executive officers or five percent or greater stockholders, or immediate family members of the foregoing, which might require disclosure pursuant to paragraph (a), above, would be subject to review, approval or ratification by the Nominating, Compensation and Governance Committee of the Trustees. That Committee is composed of all of the Trustees. The Committee’s charter empowers it to review any transactions, including loans, which may confer any benefit upon any Trustee, executive officer or affiliated entity to confirm compliance with the Trust’s Code of Conduct and Ethics and applicable law. The Committee has not adopted specific standards for evaluating such transactions beyond that mentioned above, because it is the sense of the Trustees that the activities and procedures of the Committee should remain flexible so that it may appropriately respond to changing circumstances.

(d) Independence. Each Trustee is an “independent director” within the meaning of the applicable rules of the New York Stock Exchange. Each member of the Audit and the Nominating, Compensation and Governance Committees of the Trustees is “independent” within the meaning of the applicable committee independence standards of the New York Stock Exchange.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Trustees and Certificate Holders

Texas Pacific Land Trust

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Texas Pacific Land Trust (the “Trust”) as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 and the related statements of income and total comprehensive income, net proceeds from all sources, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2014. We also have audited the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). The Trust’s management is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and an opinion on the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

A trust’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A trust’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Trust; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Trust are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and trustees of the Trust; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Trust’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Trust as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2014, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Trust maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

TEXAS PACIFIC LAND TRUST

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012

(1)

Nature of Operations

Texas Pacific Land Trust (Trust) was organized under a Declaration of Trust, dated February 1, 1888, to receive and hold title to extensive tracts of land in the State of Texas, previously the property of the Texas and Pacific Railway Company, and to issue transferable Certificates of Proprietary Interest pro rata to the original holders of certain debt securities of the Texas and Pacific Railway Company.

The Trust is organized to manage land, including royalty interests, for the benefit of its owners. The Trust’s income is derived primarily from land sales, oil and gas royalties, easements, grazing and sundry leases, interest on notes receivable, and interest on investments.

(2)

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(a)

Basis of Presentation

These financial statements are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The most significant accounting policies include the valuation of real estate and royalty interests assigned through the 1888 Declaration of Trust and revenue recognition policies.

(b)

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(c)

Revenue Recognition

Oil and gas royalties

Oil and gas royalties (royalties) are received in connection with royalty interests owned by the Trust. Royalties are recognized as revenue when crude oil and gas products are removed from the respective mineral reserve locations. Royalty payments are generally received one to three months after the crude oil and gas products are removed. An accrual is included in accrued receivables for amounts not received during the month removed based on historical trends.

F-7

TEXAS PACIFIC LAND TRUST

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012

The Trust has analyzed public reports of drilling activities by the oil companies with which it has entered into royalty interest leases in an effort to identify unpaid royalties associated with royalty interests owned by the Trust. Rights to certain royalties believed by the Trust to be due and payable may be subject to dispute with the oil company involved as a result of disagreements with respect to drilling and related engineering information. Disputed royalties are recorded when these contingencies are resolved.

Grazing lease rentals

The Trust leases land to the ranching industry for grazing purposes. Lease income is recognized when earned. These leases generally require fixed annual payments and terms range from three to five years. Lease cancellations are allowed. Advance lease payments are deferred (unearned revenue) and amortized over the appropriate accounting period. Lease payments not paid are recorded as accrued receivables.

Land sales

Income is recognized on land sales during the periods in which such sales are closed and sufficient amounts of cash down payments are received using the full accrual method of gain recognition. For income tax purposes, land sales are recognized on the installment method. The sales price of land sales are reflected as income and the cost (basis) of the respective parcels of land are reflected as expenses as these parcels of land are not primarily held as income-producing “operating” properties.

Interest income from notes receivable

Interest income is recognized when earned, using the simple interest method. Accrued interest not received is reflected in accrued receivables.

Easements and sundry income

Easement contracts represent contracts which permit companies to install pipe lines, pole lines and other equipment on land owned by the Trust. Easement income is recognized when the Trust receives a signed contract and when the Trust makes available the respective parcel of land to the grantee.

Sundry income represents leasing arrangements to companies in a wide array of industries, including: agricultural, oil and gas, construction, wind power and other industries. Lease income is recognized when earned. These leases generally require fixed annual payments or royalties. Lease terms generally range from month-to-month arrangements to ten years. Lease cancellations are allowed.

Advance lease payments are deferred and amortized over the appropriate accounting period. Lease payments not paid are included in accrued receivables.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012

(d)

Statements of Cash Flows

Cash and cash equivalents consist of bank deposit and savings accounts. The Trust considers all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At times the cash may exceed federally insured limits. The Trust maintains its cash and cash equivalents in two large financial institutions. The Trust monitors the credit quality of these institutions and does not anticipate any losses.

Cash disbursed for income taxes in 2014, 2013 and 2012 was $18,405,210, $13,178,312, and $11,844,051, respectively. New loans made by the Trust in connection with land sales amounted to $0, $0, and $613,800 for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

(e)

Accrued Receivables

Accrued receivables consist primarily of amounts due under oil and gas royalty leases and unpaid interest on notes receivable for land sales. Accrued receivables are reflected at their net realizable value based on historical royalty and interest receipt information and other factors anticipated to affect valuation. A valuation allowance is recorded if amounts expected to be received are considered impaired. No allowance was considered necessary at December 31, 2014 and 2013.

Notes Receivable for Land Sales

Notes receivable for land sales (notes receivable) consists of installment notes received as partial payment on land sales and are reflected at the principal amounts due net of an allowance for loan losses, if any. The Trust generally receives cash payments on land sales of 25% or more. Thereafter, annual principal and interest payments are required by the Trust. Notes receivable bear interest rates ranging from 7.0% to 7.5% as of December 31, 2014 and are secured by first lien deeds of trust on the properties sold. The weighted average interest rate is 7.3% as of December 31, 2014. The annual installments on notes are generally payable over terms of 10 to 15 years. There is no penalty for prepayment of principal, and prepayments in 2014, 2013 and 2012 were $1,764,928, $2,736,616, and $940,145, respectively. The interest rates on notes receivable are considered comparable with current rates on similar land sales and, accordingly, the carrying value of such notes receivable approximates fair value.

Management of the Trust monitors delinquencies to assess the propriety of the carrying value of its notes receivable. Accounts are considered delinquent thirty days after the contractual due dates. At the point in time that notes receivable become delinquent, management reviews the operations information of the debtor and the estimated fair value of the collateral held as security to determine whether an allowance for losses is required. There was no allowance for uncollectible notes receivable at December 31, 2014 and 2013.

Depreciation

Provision for depreciation of depreciable assets is made by charges to income at straight-line and accelerated rates considered to be adequate to amortize the cost of such assets over their useful lives, which generally range from three to five years. Accumulated depreciation as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 is $117,247 and $109,631, respectively.

(h)

Real Estate Acquired

While the Trust is generally not a purchaser of land, parcels are purchased from time to time at the discretion of the Trustees. Newly acquired real estate is recorded at cost.

Real estate acquired through foreclosure is recorded at the aggregate of the outstanding principal balance, accrued interest, past due ad valorem taxes, and other fees incurred relating to the foreclosure.

Real estate acquired is carried at the lower of cost or market. Valuations are periodically performed or obtained by management whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Impairments, if any, are recorded by a charge to net income and a valuation allowance if the carrying value of the property exceeds its estimated fair value. Minimal, if any, real estate improvements are made to land.

(i)

Real Estate and Royalty Interests Assigned Through the 1888 Declaration of Trust

The fair market value of the Trust’s land and royalty interests was not determined in 1888 when the Trust was formed; therefore, no value is assigned to the land, town lots, royalty interests, Certificates of Proprietary Interest, and Sub-share Certificates in Certificates of Proprietary Interest in the accompanying balance sheets. Consequently, in the statements of income and total comprehensive income, no allowance is made for depletion and no cost is deducted from the proceeds of original land sales. Even though the 1888 value of real properties cannot be precisely determined, it has been concluded that the effect of this matter can no longer be significant to the Trust’s financial position or results of operations. For Federal income tax purposes, however, deductions are made for depletion, computed on the statutory percentage basis of income received from royalties. Minimal, if any, real estate improvements are made to land.

(j)

Net Income per Sub-share Certificate

The cost of Sub-share Certificates purchased and retired is charged to net proceeds from all sources. Net income per Sub-share Certificate is based on the weighted average number of Sub-share Certificates in Certificates of Proprietary Interest and equivalent Sub-share Certificates of Proprietary Interest outstanding during each period (8,397,314 in 2014, 8,601,171 in 2013 and 8,939,045 in 2012).

(k)

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. The liability for unrecognized tax benefits is zero at December 31, 2014 and 2013.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income” (“ASU 2011-05”). ASU 2011-05 amends existing guidance by allowing only two options for presenting the components of net income and other comprehensive income: (1) in a single continuous financial statement, statement of comprehensive income or (2) in two separate but consecutive financial statements, consisting of an income statement followed by a separate statement of other comprehensive income. ASU No. 2011-05 requires retrospective application, and it is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. We adopted the provisions of ASU 2011-05 as of January 1, 2012 using the single continuous statement presentation. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on our financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 that introduces a new five-step revenue recognition model in which an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This ASU also requires disclosures sufficient to enable users to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers, including qualitative and quantitative disclosures about contracts with customers, significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. The Trust is currently evaluating the new guidance to determine the impact it will have on our financial statements.

No other effective or pending accounting pronouncements are expected to affect the Trust.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) consists of net income and other gains and losses affecting capital that, under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, are excluded from net income.

Significant Customers

Two customers represented 29.1%, 20.5% and 10.3% of the Trust’s total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 respectively.

(3)	Segment Information

Segment information has been considered in accordance with applicable accounting standards. GAAP suggests using a management approach based on the way that management organizes the segments within the enterprise for making operating decisions and assessing performance. The Trust’s management views its operations as one segment and believes the only significant activity is managing the land, which was conveyed to the Trust in 1888. Managing the land includes sales and leases of such land, and the retention of oil and gas royalties. The cost structure of the Trust is centralized and not segmented.

Real Estate Acquired

Real estate acquired included the following activity for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013:

No valuation allowance was necessary at December 31, 2014 and 2013.

(5)	Employee Benefit Plans

The Trust has a defined contribution plan available to all regular employees having one or more years of continuous service. Contributions are at the discretion of the Trustees of the Trust. The Trust contributed $41,172, $49,327, and $42,454, in 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

The Trust has a noncontributory pension plan (Plan) available to all regular employees having one or more years of continuous service. The Plan provides for normal retirement at age 65. Contributions to the Plan reflect benefits attributed to employees’ services to date, as well as services expected in the future.

December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012

The following are weighted-average assumptions used to determine benefit obligations and costs at December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012

	2014		2013		2012
Weighted average assumptions used to determine benefit obligations as of December 31:
Discount rate		4.00%		5.00%		4.25%
Rate of compensation increase		7.29		7.29		7.29

Weighted average assumptions used to determine benefit costs for the years ended December 31:
Discount rate		5.00%		4.25%		4.75%
Expected return on plan assets		7.00		7.00		7.00
Rate of compensation increase		7.29		7.29		7.29

The expected return on Plan assets assumption of 7.0% was selected by the Trust based on historical real rates of return for the current asset mix and an assumption with respect to future inflation. The rate was determined based on a long-term allocation of about two-thirds fixed income and one-third equity securities; historical real rates of return of about 2.5% and 8.5% for fixed income and equity securities, respectively; and assuming a long-term inflation rate of 2.5%.

The Plan has a formal investment policy statement. The Plan’s investment objective is balanced income, with a moderate risk tolerance. This objective emphasizes current income through a 30% to 80% allocation to fixed income securities, complemented by a secondary consideration for capital appreciation through an equity allocation in the range of 20% to 60%. Diversification is achieved through investment in mutual funds and bonds. The asset allocation is reviewed annually with respect to the target allocations and rebalancing adjustments and/or target allocation changes are made as appropriate. The Trust’s current funding policy is to maintain the Plan’s fully funded status on an ERISA minimum funding basis.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

The fair value accounting standards establish a fair value hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are those that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from independent sources. Unobservable inputs reflect our assumptions about the inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The fair value hierarchy is categorized into three levels based on the inputs used in measuring fair value, as follows:

F-16

TEXAS PACIFIC LAND TRUST

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012

Level 1 – Inputs are based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access. Since inputs are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, Level 1 inputs require the least judgment.

Level 2 – Inputs are based on quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, or are observable either directly or indirectly. Inputs are obtained from various sources including financial institutions and brokers.

Level 3 – Inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. The degree of judgment exercised by us in determining fair value is greatest for fair value measurements categorized in Level 3.

The fair values of plan assets by major asset category at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, are as follows:

	Total		Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)

Lease Commitments

The Trust is currently a lessee under a month-to-month operating lease in connection with its administrative offices located in Dallas, Texas. This lease agreement requires monthly rent of approximately $5,867. Rent expense amounted to $70,400 for each of the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

(8)	Capital

Certificates of Proprietary Interest (Certificates) and Sub-share Certificates in Certificates of Proprietary Interest (Sub-shares) are exchangeable in the ratio of one Certificate to 3,000 Sub-shares. No Certificates were exchanged for Sub-shares in 2014 and 2013.

The number of Certificates authorized for issuance at a given date is the number then outstanding plus one/three-thousandth of the number of Sub-shares then outstanding. The number of Sub-shares authorized for issuance at a given date is the number then outstanding plus three thousand times the number of Certificates then outstanding.

The Declaration of Trust was executed and delivered in New York. In the opinion of counsel for the Trust, under the laws of the State of New York, the Certificate and Sub-share Certificate holders are not subject to any personal liability for the acts or obligations of the Trust.

The assets of the Trust are located in Texas. In the opinion of Texas counsel, under the laws of the State of Texas, the Certificate and Sub-share Certificate holders may be held personally liable with respect to claims against the Trust, but only after the assets of the Trust first have been exhausted.
