Forward-Looking Statements
This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of
1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. All such statements, other than statements of
historical fact, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995, including, without limitation, any projections of financial items; projections of contracting services activity; future
production volumes, results of exploration, exploitation, development, acquisition and operations expenditures, and
prospective reserve levels of properties or wells; projections of utilization; any statements of the plans, strategies and
objectives of management for future operations; any statements concerning developments; and any statements of
assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. These statements involve certain assumptions we made based on our
experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors
we believe are reasonable and appropriate under the circumstances. The forward-looking statements are subject to
a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause our actual results to differ
materially. The risks, uncertainties and assumptions referred to above include the performance of contracts by
suppliers, customers and partners; actions by governmental and regulatory authorities; operating hazards and
delays; employee management issues; local, national and worldwide economic conditions; uncertainties inherent in
the exploration for and development of oil and gas and in estimating reserves; complexities of global political and
economic developments; geologic risks, volatility of oil and gas prices and other risks described from time to time in
our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including the Company’s most recently filed
Annual Report on Form 10-K and in the Company’s other filings with the SEC. Free copies of the reports can be
found at the SEC’s website, www.SEC.gov. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking
statements which speak only as of the date of this presentation and the associated press release. We assume no
obligation or duty and do not intend to update these forward-looking statements except as required by the securities
laws.
References to quantities of oil or gas include amounts we believe will ultimately be produced, and may include
“proved reserves” and quantities of oil or gas that are not yet classified as “proved reserves” under SEC definitions.
Statements of oil and gas reserves are estimates based on assumptions and may be imprecise. Investors are urged
to consider closely the disclosure regarding reserves in our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K and any
subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.
