Disclosures Forward-Looking Statements and Reserves Disclosures This presentation contains forward-looking statements relating to QR Energy's operations that are based on management's current expectations, estimates and projections about its operations. Words and phrases such as "expect," "estimates," "guidance," "opportunities," "potential," "may," "believe" and "target," references to future years, and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. QR Energy believes that its expectations and forecasts are based on reasonable assumptions, however, no assurance can be given that such expectations and forecasts will prove to be correct. A number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, could cause actual results to differ materially from the expectations and forecasts, anticipated results and other forward-looking information expressed in this presentation, including risks relating to QR Energy's financial performance and results, availability of sufficient cash flow to execute our business plan, our level of indebtedness, a significant reduction in the borrowing base under our bank credit facility, our ability to raise capital, prices and demand for oil and natural gas, our ability to replace reserves and efficiently develop our current reserves, adverse market conditions, competition and governmental regulations. For a more complete list of these risks, please read QR Energy's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), which are available on QR Energy's Investor Relations website at http://ir.qrenergylp.com or on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. The reader should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this presentation. Unless legally required, QR Energy undertakes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Unpredictable or unknown factors not discussed herein could also have material adverse effects on forward-looking statements. The SEC permits oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only "reserves" as defined by SEC rules. Estimates of reserves in this presentation are based on assumptions with regard to commodity prices (NYMEX spot oil and natural gas prices as of September 2, 2011) that differ from the prices required by the SEC (historical 12 month average) to be used in calculating reserves estimates prepared in accordance with SEC definitions and guidelines. In addition, the estimates of reserves in this presentation were prepared by our internal reserve engineers and are based on various assumptions, including assumptions related to oil and natural gas prices as discussed above, drilling and operating expenses, capital expenditures, taxes and availability of funds. Our internal estimates of proved reserves may not be indicative of or may differ materially from the estimates of our proved reserves as of December 31, 2011 that will be prepared by Miller & Lents, Ltd. as a result of the SEC pricing and other assumptions employed by an independent reserve engineering firm.
