See Slide 2 regarding Forward Looking Statements
The following information contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995. These forward-looking statements are based on Management’s current expectations and beliefs, as well as a number
of assumptions concerning future events.
These statements are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by Management in light of its experience and its
perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments as well as other factors it believes are
appropriate in the circumstances. However, whether actual results and developments will conform with Management’s
expectations and predictions is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, general economic, market or business
conditions; the opportunities (or lack thereof) that may be presented to and pursued by Petroleum Development Corporation;
actions by competitors; changes in laws or regulations; and other factors, many of which are beyond the control of Petroleum
Development Corporation.
You are cautioned not to put undue reliance on such forward-looking statements because actual results may vary materially
from those expressed or implied, as more fully discussed in our safe harbor statements found in our SEC filings, including,
without limitation, the discussion under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Company’s 2009 annual report on Form 10-K and in
subsequent Form 10-Qs.
All forward-looking statements are based on information available to Management on this date
and Petroleum Development Corporation assumes no obligation to, and expressly disclaims any obligation to, update
or revise any forward looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
The SEC permits oil and gas companies to disclose in their filings with the SEC proved reserves, probable reserves and
possible reserves.  SEC regulations define “proved reserves” as those quantities of oil or gas which, by analysis of geosciences
and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically producible in future years from known
reservoirs under existing economic conditions, operating methods and government regulations; “probable reserves” as
unproved reserves which, together with proved reserves, are as likely as not to be recovered; and “possible reserves” as
unproved reserves which are less certain to be recovered than probable reserves. Estimates of probable and possible reserves
which may potentially be recoverable through additional drilling or recovery techniques are by nature more uncertain than
estimates of proved reserves and accordingly are subject to substantially greater risk of not actually being realized by the
Company. In addition, the Company’s reserves and production forecasts and expectations for future periods are dependent
upon many assumptions, including estimates of production decline rates from existing wells and the undertaking and outcome
of future drilling activity, which may be affected by significant commodity price declines or drilling cost increases.
This material also contains certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined under the Securities and Exchange Commission
rules.

Wattenberg Field:
Niobrara Formation Overview
 Covers the bulk of the Rocky Mountain region and has been being
 developed in the DJ Basin for 30+ years on a veritcal basis with
 mixed results
 Economics improved in the late 90’s with modern hydraulic
 fracturing technology for vertical development
 PDC developed and enhanced a geologic model which
 incorporates recent horizontal drilling and production results by
 EOG Resources and Noble
 In Q2 2010 PDC purchased the 5,500 net acre “Krieger Prospect”
 as an anticipated horizontal project for approximately $1,000 per
 acre
 Spacing request, hearing and permit submittal should occur by the
 end of July 2010
 Expect to spud and achieve first production Q4 2010
 Anticipate drilling 4-6 horizontal wells in 2011 and will continue to
 evaluate farm-in opportunities

 $158 MM Appalachian JV formed with Lime Rock Partners
 (“LRP”) effective 10/1/09; PDC contributed Marcellus
 acreage and Shallow Devonian production and acreage.
 Provided PDC an alternative capital source as LRP funded
 PDC $45 MM upon closing, and a commitment to invest the
 first $68.5 MM of capital investment. LRP will become a
 50% partner once it satisfies it’s capital investment
 obligation.
 Provides opportunity to accelerate development of the JV
 assets.
 PDC’s ability to raise capital through the JV structure,
 provides financial flexibility and opportunities to increase
 development capital spending and /or pursue acquisitions.
 The JV is governed and managed by a Board of Directors
 comprised of equal representation by PDC and LRP. PDC
 will manage the operations of the JV.

Income Statement and
Cash Flow Analysis
20
1) Other income: income from gas marketing activities, well ops and pipeline income
  Despite 17.6% reduction in
 production in 2010 versus 2009,
 the Company budgeted 2010 net
 income versus a loss in 2009 and
 budgeted strong year over year
 adjusted cash flow from
 operations.
  Year-over-year change in net
 income and cash flow from
 operations were primarily due to
 improved:
  Price realizations
  Capital efficiency
  G&A expense - non-
 recurrence of 2009 one time
 items.

Oil and Gas Hedges
(1) Based on 12/31/09 PDP curve (i.e., may represent 50% or less of actual production for the future year)
(2) Based on forward pricing curves as of 3/31/2010
(3) Blended price for forecasted production at hedged and at forward prices
 Continued focus on hedging enabled the Company to protect its cash flow, capital programs,
 and organic drilling economics from commodity price fluctuations
  Realized gains of $108MM
  Substantial hedge positions through 2013 via swaps (2010-2011) and collars (2012-2013) at solid historical
 commodity price levels should continue to provide on-going protection
  Price sensitivity of 2010’s budget has been significantly mitigated. Variation of $1.00/Mcfe for natural gas
 and $10.00/bbl for oil results in less than a 5% variation in cash flow from operations

PDC Wolfberry Acquisition in
West Texas Key Highlights
24
 Acquired producing assets from private seller in Wolfberry
 Trend for $45 mm plus PDC’s producing Michigan Gas assets
 valued by the seller at $30 million
 Includes 72 wells on approximately 8,300 net acres
 Should add approximately 900 boe/d over the next 12 months
 and strong multi-year production growth is projected
 Proved plus probable (2P) reserve add of approximately 8.5
 million BOE (70% oil)
 Effective date of transaction is May 1, 2010 with projected
 closing date of July 30, 2010
 Acquisition driven by US onshore basin study findings
 Must identify asset team to execute development plan and
 grow the position

Partnership Purchases:
Three-Year Plan
 Limited Partners’ non-operated interest is typically 60-80% of
 certain PDC operated wells (Rockies principally)
 28 Limited Partnerships have net reserves of approximately 125
 Bcfe and net production of approximately 25 MMcfe/d owned by
 the Limited Partners
 PDC strategy to purchase Limited Partners’ interest over next
 three years
  Production and reserve adds in existing operated core acreage
  Reduction/optimization of internal G&A costs
  9 SEC compliant partnerships represent over 60% of net reserves
 and over 75% of total cash flows owned by the Limited Partners
  Elimination of Limited Partnerships through repurchases would
 finalize PDC’s transition to a traditionally capitalized E&P company

 - Over 150 Marcellus permits issued in WV counties surrounding
 PDC position
 Partnership Purchases - Three Year Plan
 - Non-operated interests in certain existing PDC operated
 Wattenberg and Piceance Assets
 Acquisitions - Asset and Small Corporate
 - Anticipate substantial A&D deal flow in 2010
