Forward Looking Statements
Forward Looking Statements
NYSE: HNR

Cautionary
Statements:
Certain
statements
in
this
presentation
are
forward-looking
and
are
based
upon
Harvests
current belief as to the outcome and timing of future events.  All statements other than statements of historical facts
including
planned
capital
expenditures,
increases
in
oil
and
gas
production,
Harvests
outlook
on
oil
and
gas
prices,
estimates of oil and gas reserves, business strategy and other plans, estimates, projections, and objectives for future
operations,
are
forward-looking
statements
within
the
meaning
of
the
safe
harbor
provisions
of
the
Private
Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the
forward-looking statements herein include Harvest’s concentration of assets in Venezuela; timing and extent of changes
in commodity prices for oil and gas; political and economic risks associated with international operations; and other risk
factors as described in Harvests Annual Report on Form 10-K and other public filings.  Should one or more of these
risks or uncertainties occur, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, Harvests actual results and plans could
differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements.  Harvest undertakes no obligation to publicly
update or revise any forward-looking statements.
Harvest may use certain terms such as resource base, contingent resources, prospective resources, probable reserves,
possible reserves, non-proved reserves or other descriptions of volumes of reserves.  These estimates are by their
nature more speculative than estimates of proved reserves and accordingly, are subject to substantially greater risk of
being actually realized by the Company.  Investors are urged to consider closely the disclosure in our 2013 Annual
Report on Form 10-K and other public filings available from Harvest at 1177 Enclave Parkway, Houston, Texas, 77077
or from the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
Contingent resources are resources that are potentially recoverable but not yet considered mature enough for
commercial
development
due
to
technological
or
business
hurdles.
Prospective
resources
are
those
quantities
of
hydrocarbons which are estimated, as of a given date, to be potentially recoverable from undiscovered accumulations
by application of future development projects. They indicate exploration opportunities and development potential in the
event a discovery is made and should not be construed as contingent resources or reserves. The contingent and
prospective resources included in this presentation were internally developed by Harvest Natural Resources.
