Consolidated

Net Present Value ("NPV") Summary (before tax) as at December 31, 2012

(December 31, 2012, escalated price forecast)

Benchmark oil and NGL prices used are adjusted for quality of oil or NGL produced and for transportation costs. The calculated NPVs include a deduction for estimated future well abandonment but does not include a provision for interest, debt service charges and general and administrative expenses. It should not be assumed that the NPV estimated represents the fair market value of the reserves.
