21 disclaimer statement This presentation contains "forward-looking statements" including estimates of future production, cash flows and reserves, business plans for drilling and exploration, the estimated amounts and timing of capital expenditures, the assumptions upon which estimates are based and related sensitivity analyses, and other expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions or statements about future events or performance (often, but not always, using words or phrases such as "expects" or "does not expect", "is expected", "anticipates" or "does not anticipate", "plans", "estimated" or "intends", or stating that certain actions, events or results may", "could", "would", "might" or "will" be taken, occur or be achieved). In particular, this presentation contains forward-looking statements pertaining, to the following: the Company's anticipated 2016 land auction approval, capital budget and average daily production, using internal funding to complete future acquisitions; the ability of the Company to maintain its balance sheet strength; type well economics and performance; drilling inventory and reserve life index expectations; the anticipated impact of technical advancements on productivity and decline rates and ultimate recoveries; the Company s strategy to increase recovery factors; the ability of the Company to manage the current helium price environment the Company s business strategy (including development, enhancement, acquisition and risk management); capital cost, cost per well, NPV, rate of return and payout. Statements relating to "reserves" are deemed to be forward looking statements, as they involve the implied assessment, based on certain estimates and assumptions, that the reserves described exist in the quantities predicted or estimated and that the reserves can be profitably produced in the future. Furthermore, all resources estimates are non- NA compliant and strictly un-risked contingent resource estimates.. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating helium, crude oil, natural gas and NGL reserves and the future cash flow attributed to such reserves. All forward-looking statements are based on RHC s beliefs and assumptions based on information available at the time the assumption was made. RHC believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable but no assurance can be given that these expectations will prove to be correct and such forward-looking statements included in this presentation should not be unduly relied upon. By their nature, such forwardlooking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions, which could cause actual results or other expectations to differ materially from those anticipated, expressed or implied by such statements. In addition, risk factors include: financial risk of marketing reserves at an acceptable price given market conditions; volatility in market prices for helium; delays in business operations; processing restrictions; blowouts; the risk of carrying out operations with minimal environmental impact; industry conditions including changes in laws and regulations including the adoption of new environmental laws and regulations and changes in how they are interpreted and enforced; uncertainties associated with estimating oil and natural gas reserves; economic risk of finding and producing reserves at a reasonable cost; uncertainties associated with partner plans and approvals; operational matters related to non-operated properties; increased competition for, among other things, capital, acquisitions of reserves and undeveloped lands; competition for and availability of qualified personnel or management; incorrect assessments of the value of acquisitions and exploration and development programs; unexpected geological, technical, drilling, construction and processing problems; availability of insurance; fluctuations in foreign exchange and interest rates; stock market volatility; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of acquisitions; general economic, market and business conditions; uncertainties associated with regulatory approvals; uncertainty of government policy changes; uncertainties associated with credit facilities and counterparty credit risk; and changes in income tax laws, tax laws, crown royalty rates and incentive programs relating to the oil and gas industry. These risks and uncertainties could cause actual results or other expectations to differ materially from those anticipated, expressed or implied by such statements. The impact of any one risk, uncertainty or factor on a particular forward-looking statement is not determinable with certainty as these are interdependent. RHC assumes no obligation to update forward-looking statements should circumstances or management's estimates or opinions change.
