PARSLEY LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS LISTED IN THE PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS DATED
OCTOBER 12, 2001. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" ITEMS 1, 2, 3

     The undersigned hereby appoints Mark L. Withrow and Timothy L. Dove, and
either of them, proxies or proxy with full power of substitution and revocation
as to each of them, to represent the undersigned and to act and vote, with all
powers which the undersigned would possess if personally present, at the special
meetings of limited partners to be held on December 20, 2001 at 10:00 a.m. at
the Dallas Marriott Las Colinas Hotel, 223 West Las Colinas Blvd., Irving, Texas
75039, on the following matters and in their discretion on any other matters
which may come before the meeting or any adjournments thereof. Receipt of the
proxy statement/prospectus dated October 12, 2001 is acknowledged.


     The table below sets forth the merger value attributable to you as a
limited partner for each partnership in which you hold a partnership interest
and the estimated number of shares of Pioneer Parent common stock that will be
paid to you as a limited partner for the purchase of your partnership interests.
The merger value will not be changed. For purposes of illustration in this proxy
card, Pioneer USA has calculated the estimated number of shares offered based on
an assumed average closing price of $18.00 per share of Pioneer Parent common
stock. The actual number of shares of Pioneer Parent common stock offered will
be calculated by dividing the merger value assigned to a partnership by the
average closing price of the Pioneer Parent common stock, as reported by the New
York Stock Exchange, for the ten trading days ending three business days before
the initial date of the special meeting for the partnership. The estimated
number of shares also reflects, and the actual number of shares will reflect,
rounding of any fractional shares of Pioneer Parent common stock up to the
nearest whole share.
