Since January 1, 2012, the Company has sold approximately $74 million of oil and natural gas properties (71% natural gas) and has restructured its shallow gas and Cardium horizontal drilling commitments. All of the Company's drilling commitments have now been completed.

It is Anderson's current intention to not disclose developments with respect to its strategic alternatives process unless and until the Board of Directors has approved a specific transaction or otherwise determines that disclosure is necessary in accordance with applicable law. The Company cautions that there are no assurances or guarantees that the process will result in a transaction or, if a transaction is undertaken, the terms or timing of such a transaction. The Company has not set a definitive schedule to complete the evaluation.

CONVERSION

Disclosure provided herein in respect of barrels of oil equivalent ("BOE") may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A BOE conversion ratio of 6 Mcf: 1 bbl is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.
