14 DISCLAIMER RESERVES AND RESOURCES ADVISORY The reserves and resources and associated future net revenue information presented herein are estimates only. In general, estimates of oil reserves and resources and the future net revenue therefrom are based upon forward-looking statements and a number of variable factors and assumptions, such as production rates, ultimate reserve recovery, timing and amount of capital expenditures, ability to transport production, marketability of oil, royalty rates, the assumed effects of regulation by governmental and other regulatory agencies and future operating costs, all of which may vary materially from actual results, and for resources, additional variable factors and assumptions such as discovery and commerciality. For those reasons, estimates of the oil reserves and resources attributable to any particular group of properties, as well as the classification of such reserves and resources (based on risk of recovery) and estimates of future net revenues associated with such reserves and resources prepared by different engineers (or by the same engineers at different times) may vary. The actual reserves and resources of Oryx Petroleum may be greater or less than those estimated and such variation may be material. In addition, Oryx Petroleum s actual production, revenues, development, capital and operating expenditures, as applicable, with respect to its reserves and resources will vary from estimates thereof and such variations could be material. Any activities undertaken by Oryx Petroleum to develop or permit the reclassification of its reserves and resources will be subject to the terms of the applicable contractual arrangement. Statements relating to net present value, future net revenues, reserves and resources are deemed to be forward-looking statements, as they involve the implied assessment, based on certain estimates and assumptions (including, without limitation, pricing assumptions), that the reserves and resources described exist in the quantities predicted or estimated, and can be profitably produced in the future. Readers should refer to the AIF for information regarding the assumptions related to the reserves and resources reported herein. There is no assurance that forecast price and cost assumptions will be attained and variances could be material. Proved oil reserves are those reserves which are most certain to be recovered. There is at least a 90% probability that the quantities actually recovered will equal or exceed the estimated proved oil reserves. Probable oil reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than proved oil reserves. There is at least a 50% probability that the quantities actually recovered will equal or exceed the sum of the estimated proved plus probable oil reserves. Possible oil reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than probable oil reserves. There is a 10% probability that the quantities actually recovered will equal or exceed the sum of estimated proved plus probable plus possible oil reserves. Contingent oil resources are those quantities of petroleum estimated, as of a given date, to be potentially recoverable from known accumulations using established technology or technology under development, but which are not currently considered to be commercially recoverable due to one or more contingencies. Contingencies may include factors such as economic, legal, environmental, political, and regulatory matters, or a lack of markets. Contingent oil resources entail additional commercial risk than reserves and adjustments for commercial risks have not been incorporated in the summaries of contingent oil resources set forth in this presentation. There is no certainty that it will be commercially viable to produce any portion of the contingent oil resources. Moreover, the volumes of contingent oil resources reported herein are sensitive to economic assumptions, including capital and operating costs and commodity pricing. Prospective oil resources are those quantities of petroleum estimated, as of a given date, to be potentially recoverable from undiscovered accumulations by application of future development projects. Prospective oil resources have both an associated chance of discovery and a chance of development. Prospective oil resources are further subdivided in accordance with the level of certainty associated with recoverable estimates assuming their discovery and development and may be sub classified based on project maturity. Prospective oil resources entail more commercial and exploration risks than those relating to oil reserves and contingent oil resources. The risked prospective oil resources reported in this presentation are partially risked resources that have been risked for chance of discovery, but have not been risked for chance of development. If a discovery is made, there is no certainty that it will be developed or, if it is developed, there is no certainty as to the timing or cost of such development. The reserves estimates and evaluation and resource estimates and evaluation contained herein are derived from the NSAI Report which was prepared with reference to NI relying on the COGE Handbook definitions. Reserves and resources provided herein are as at December 31, 2014 and are only valid as of such date. The estimates of reserves and resources and future net revenue for individual properties may not reflect the same confidence level as estimates of reserves and resources and future net revenue for all properties, due to the effects of aggregation. The estimated future net revenues contained herein are valid only as at December 31, 2014 and do not necessarily represent the fair market value of Oryx Petroleum s reserves and resources. As used herein, unless otherwise indicated, gross means, in respect of reserves, resources, production, area, capital expenditures or operating expenses, the total reserves, resources, production, area, capital expenditures or operating expenses, as applicable, attributable to either (i) 100% of the license area, field, prospect or lead; or, (ii) the Corporation s working interest in the license area, field, prospect or lead, as indicated, prior to the deductions specified in the applicable production sharing contract, risk exploration contract or fiscal regime for each license area. In addition to the general advisory language above, the below notes qualify certain reserves and resources volumes and other oil and gas information disclosed in this document: : This volume is an arithmetic sum of multiple estimates of reserves or resources, as applicable, which statistical principles indicate may be misleading as to volumes that may actually be recovered. Readers should give attention to the estimates of individual classes of reserves or resources, as applicable, and appreciate the differing probabilities of recovery associated with each class as explained above. : All field fluid measurements will require laboratory analysis to confirm results and should be considered preliminary until such analysis has been done. The test results are not necessarily indicative of long-term performance or of ultimate recovery. 14
