February 2012
Exhibit 99.1


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 statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in
this presentation that address activities, events or developments that the Company expects, believes or anticipates will or
may occur in the future are forward-looking statements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, forward-looking
statements contained in this presentation specifically include the expectations of plans, strategies, objectives and anticipated
financial and operating results of the Company, including the Company's drilling program, production, derivative
instruments, capital expenditure levels and other guidance included in this presentation. These statements are based on
certain assumptions made by the Company based on management's experience and perception of historical trends, current
conditions, anticipated future developments and other factors believed to be appropriate. Such statements are subject to a
number of assumptions, risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the control of the Company, which may cause
actual results to differ materially from those implied or expressed by the forward-looking statements. These include, but are
not limited to, changes in oil and natural gas prices, weather and environmental conditions, the timing of planned capital
expenditures, availability of acquisitions, uncertainties in estimating proved reserves and forecasting production results,
operational factors affecting the commencement or maintenance of
producing wells, the condition of the capital markets
generally, as well as the Company's ability to access them, the proximity to and capacity of transportation facilities, and
uncertainties regarding environmental regulations or litigation and other legal or regulatory developments affecting the
Company's business and other important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected as
described in the Company's reports filed with the SEC.
Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made and the Company undertakes no
obligation to correct or update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or
otherwise, except as required by applicable law.
References to quantities of oil or natural gas may include amounts that the Company believes will ultimately be produced
but
that
are
not
yet
classified
as
“proved
reserves”
under
SEC
definitions.
