Forward Looking Statements 2 Confidential This material includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, regarding our strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues and losses, projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives of management are forward-looking statements. These forward- looking statements are based on our current expectations and assumptions about future events and are based on currently available information as to the outcome and timing of future events. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. They are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may affect the company’s operations, markets, products, services and prices and cause its actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may include statements about our: business strategy; reserves, including changes to our reserves presentation in accordance with newly adopted SEC rules; financial strategy, liquidity and capital required for our development program; realized natural gas and oil prices; timing and amount of future production of natural gas and oil; hedging strategy and results; future drilling plans; competition and government regulations; marketing of natural gas and oil; leasehold or business acquisitions; costs of developing our properties and conducting our gathering and other midstream operations; general economic conditions; credit markets; liquidity and access to capital; uncertainty regarding our future operating results; and plans, objectives, expectations and intentions that are not historical. We caution you that these forward-looking statements are subject to all of the risks and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control, incident to the exploration for and development, production, gathering and sale of natural gas and oil. These risks include, but are not limited to: commodity price volatility; inflation; lack of availability of drilling and production equipment and services; environmental risks; drilling and other operating risks; regulatory changes; the uncertainty inherent in estimating natural gas and oil reserves and in projecting future rates of production, cash flow and access to capital; the timing of development expenditures; and other risks. Except as otherwise required by applicable law, we disclaim any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. The SEC requires oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose proved reserves that a company has demonstrated by actual production or conclusive formation tests to be economically and legally producible under existing economic and operating conditions. We use the terms “estimated ultimate recovery,” “EUR,” “probable,” “3P,” “possible,” and “non-proven” reserves, reserve “potential” or “upside,” “unrisked potential” or other descriptions of volumes of reserves potentially recoverable through additional drilling or recovery techniques that are not classified as proved reserves, may not have been calculated as defined by SEC regulations and SEC’s guidelines may prohibit us from including in any future filings with the SEC. 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. We believe these estimates are reasonable, but such estimates have not been reviewed by independent engineers. Estimates may change significantly as development provides additional data, and actual quantities that are ultimately recovered may differ substantially from prior estimates. Our production forecasts are dependent upon many assumptions, including estimates of production decline rates from existing wells and the outcome of future drilling activity Although we believe the forecasts are reasonable, we can give no assurance they will prove to have been correct. They can be affected by inaccurate assumptions and data or by known or unknown risks and uncertainties. Market and industry data and forecasts used in this presentation have been obtained from independent industry sources as well as from research reports prepared for other purposes. Although we believe these third-party sources to be reliable, we have not independently verified the data obtained from these sources and we cannot assure you of the accuracy or completeness of the data. Forecasts and other forward-looking information obtained from these sources are subject to the same qualifications and uncertainties as the other forward-looking statements in this presentation.
