2 8/3/2009 3:02 PM Forward – Looking and Other Cautionary Statements This presentation and the conference call to which it relates, contains forward-looking statements, including statements regarding projected results and future events. In particular, the Company is providing updated “2009 Guidance,” which contain projections for certain 2009 operational and financial results and projected capital expenditures. These forward-looking statements are based on management’s judgment as of this date and include certain risks and uncertainties. Please refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year-ended December 31, 2008 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and subsequent filings including our Current Reports on Form 8-K and Form 10-Q, for a list of certain risk factors. Actual results may differ materially from Company projections and can be affected by a variety of factors outside the control of the Company including, among other things, exploration drilling and test results, the ability to receive drilling and other permits and regulatory approvals, governmental regulations, transportation, processing, availability and costs of financing to fund the Company’s operations, availability of third party gathering, market conditions, supply and demand changes and resulting oil and gas price volatility, risks related to hedging activities including counterparty viability, the availability and cost of services and materials, the ability to obtain industry partners to jointly explore certain prospects and the willingness and ability of those partners to meet capital obligations when requested, surface access and costs, uncertainties inherent in oil and gas production operations and estimating reserves, the impact of commodity price changes on reserve estimates, unexpected future capital expenditures, competition, risks associated with operating in one major geographic area, the success of the Company’s risk management activities, and other factors discussed in the Company’s reports filed with the SEC. Bill Barrett Corporation encourages readers to consider the risks and uncertainties associated with projections. In addition, the Company assumes no obligation to publicly revise or update any forward-looking statements based on future events or circumstances. |
