       DALLAS - September 22, 2003 - Denbury  Resources Inc. (NYSE symbol:  DNR)
announced that David Bonderman, a principal of the Texas Pacific Group, resigned
his position as director of the Company on September  15,  2003.  Mr.  Bonderman

Company's  success.  David's broad  business  experience and acumen have brought
significant guidance and direction to Denbury's board. He is a very busy man and
we appreciate the time he has devoted to Denbury over the last seven years."

members,  three of whom are representatives of the Texas Pacific Group, to serve
until the next annual meeting in May 2004.  Prior to next year's annual meeting,
the Board will consider whether or not to add an additional  director as part of
the normal nominating process.
