its new 14-01 vertical well at its Entice Lands. For the year ended

million and net back of $0.8 million, equivalent to gross revenue per

their report dated June 13, 2017, in which Sproule has evaluated, as of
March 31, 2017, the oil and natural gas reserves attributable to the
Company’s PNG Producing Properties (the “2017 Reserves Report”) and

March 31, 2016, the oil and natural gas reserves attributable to the
Company’s PNG Producing Properties (the “2016 Reserves Report”).

2016 Reserves Report and the “Proved” and “Proved Plus Probable”
remaining reserves of the Company therein. The positive increases in
both reserves and Net Present Value of the remaining reserves is due to
the ongoing and intended development activities of the Company at its
Leduc Lands and the addition of the two new wells at the Company’s
