ANALYSIS

On behalf of shareholders, Peyto has analyzed the reserve evaluation in order to answer three fundamental questions.

1.   Base Reserves - How did the "base reserves" that were on production at    the time of the last reserve report perform during the year, and how did    any change in commodity price forecast affect their value?2.   Value Creation - How much value did the 2012 capital investments    create, both in current producing reserves and in undeveloped potential?3.   Growth and Income - Are the projected cash flows capable of funding the    growing number of undeveloped opportunities and a sustainable dividend    stream to shareholders without sacrificing Peyto's financial    flexibility?
