We study the wave equation in the exterior of a bounded domain $K$ with dissipative boundary condition $partial_{ u} u - gamma(x) u = 0$ on the boundary $Gamma$ and $gamma(x) > 0.$ The solutions are described by a contraction semigroup $V(t) = e^{tG}, : t geq 0.$ The eigenvalues $lambda_k$ of $G$ with ${rm Re}: lambda_k < 0$ yield asymptotically disappearing solutions $u(t, x) = e^{lambda_k t} f(x)$ having exponentially decreasing global energy. We establish a Weyl formula for these eigenvalues in the case $min_{xin Gamma} gamma(x) > 1.$ For strictly convex obstacles $K$ this formula concerns all eigenvalues of $G.$
