Forward-Looking Statements

Grizzly Oil Sands

2 Certain statements, estimates and financial information contained in this presentation ("Estimates") constitute forward- looking statements or information. Such forward-looking statements or information involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events or results to differ materially from the Estimates or results implied or expressed in such forward-looking statements. While presented with numerical specificity, the Estimates are based (i)

  • n certain assumptions that are inherently subject to significant business, economic, regulatory, environmental,

seasonal, and competitive uncertainties, contingencies and risks including, without limitation, assumptions of resource, ability to obtain debt and equity financing, capital costs, construction costs, well production performances, operating costs, commodity pricing, differentials, royalty structures, regulatory approvals, and other known and unknown risks, all

  • f which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond the control of Grizzly Oil Sands ULC ("Grizzly"); and (ii)

upon assumptions with respect to future business decisions that are subject to change. There can be no assurance that the Estimates or the underlying assumptions will be realized and that actual results of

  • perations or future events will not be materially different from the Estimates. Under no circumstances should the

inclusion of the Estimates be regarded as a representation, undertaking, warranty or prediction by Grizzly, or any other person with respect to the accuracy thereof or the accuracy of the underlying assumptions, or that Grizzly will achieve

  • r is likely to achieve any particular results. The Estimates are made as of the date of this presentation and Grizzly

disclaims any intent or obligation to update publicly or to revise any of the Estimates, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Recipients are cautioned that forward-looking statements or information are not guarantees of future performance and, accordingly, recipients are expressly cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements or information due to the inherent uncertainty therein. There are significant differences in the criteria associated with the classification of reserves, prospective resources and contingent resources. Contingent resources and prospective resources estimates involve additional risks, specifically the risk of not achieving commerciality and exploration risk, respectively, not applicable to reserves estimates. No adjustments for these risks have been made in the groupings of reserves and recoverable resources. All reference to dollars in this presentation should be assumed to refer to Canadian dollars, unless otherwise noted. All references to reserves and or resources represent Grizzly’s interest in reserves and resources prior to the deduction of Crown royalties, unless otherwise noted.

  • Grizzly has a high quality resource based on Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage (“SAGD”) with

additional upside using other reservoir recovery processes

  • 3.1 billion bbls of 2P + Contingent Resources(1)
  • Resources primarily located in low risk clastic reservoirs, with some exposure to the carbonates
  • Two thirds of current lease position remains unexplored, which provides upside potential

  • Rail provides consistent and flexible

access to coastal markets offering Brent-based pricing

  • Diluent requirements are 50% lower
  • n rail (railbit) than pipeline
  • Condensate back-haul opportunities

from the U.S.Gulf Coast are available to resource diluent requirements at lower cost

  • Low fixed costs provide optionality to

access intra-Alberta markets (via truck) when local differentials are attractive.

  • Windell Rail Terminal - Operational
  • First crude oil shipped to the U.S. Gulf Coast in June,

2014

  • Located on CN line adjacent to our May River site, and

in close proximity to 160,000 bbls/d of existing and 1.5 MMbbls/d of planned industry bitumen production

  • Capacity can be expanded to unit train facility of railbit

loading and condensate receiving

  • Short pipeline opportunities to access local bitumen

production

  • Exited Louisiana rail to barge terminal project. Maintain

flexibility by accessing available 3rd party USGC terminal capacity

  • 350 rail car fleet leased for 10 years
  • Grizzly is pursuing 3rd party transloading volumes

  • Demonstrate Algar Lake reservoir performance by executing a successful production

ramp

  • Reduce cost structure by 15%
  • Advance the 12,000 bbls/d May River development application
  • Resolve shallow SAGD regulatory development application issue
  • Continue to establish market for Algar production in USGC and optimize Brent crude

pricing.
