Barrel of Oil Equivalent: Where amounts are expressed on a barrel of oil
equivalent ("BOE") is, natural gas volumes have been converted to BOE at a ratio
of 6,000 cubic feet of natural gas to one barrel of oil equivalent. This
conversion ratio is based upon an energy equivalent conversion method primarily
applicable at the burner tip and does not represent value equivalence at the
wellhead. BOE figures may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation.
Reserve Information: The aforementioned reserves information is based on an
independent engineering evaluation report prepared by AJM Petroleum Consultants
effective December 31, 2010.
Statements in this press release may contain forward-looking information

dispositions, capital spending, access to credit facilities, income and oil
taxes, regulatory changes, and other components of cash flow and earnings. The
reader is cautioned that assumptions used in the preparation of such information
may prove to be incorrect. Events or circumstances may cause actual results to

risks, uncertainties, and other factors, many of which are beyond the control of
the issuer. These risks include, but are not limited to, the risks associated
with the oil and gas industry, commodity prices and exchange rate changes.
Industry related risks could include, but are not limited to, operational risks
in development and production, delays or changes in plans, risks associated to

safety risks and the uncertainty of estimates and projections of production,
costs and expenses. Additionally, this press release contains statements of net
present value - readers are cautioned the net present values of future net
revenue do not represent fair market value. The reader is cautioned not to place
