Tangle Creek – Kaybob Property

Tangle Creek Energy – First utilization of horizontal multistage technology
on the Kaybob Dunvegan Play
 early mover application of new technology completions
 detailed technical review - unearthing high potential oil opportunities

The largest and most prospective land position on the play – with a
significant drilling inventory, year-round access and extensive
infrastructure
 most active and experienced operator

Current corporate focus on acquisition opportunities & expanding
Kaybob production & cash flows:
 Improving capital & operating cost efficiencies
 Advancing technologies - applications already implemented – improved ball drop
(metallic, composite, soluble); monobore well design, internally designed drill bits, multi-well pads
 Initiatives being tested in 2014 include: – 3 & 4 well pads, waterflood pilot, drill/ream system, slickwater completions, inter-well spacing

Positioning Tangle Creek for the Future
1. Second Core Operating Area – Test well(s) at Nipisi
2. Acquisitions – Oil & liquids rich gas opportunities under review in 3
separate areas. Land purchases, asset & corporate acquisitions

Over $400 million of potential acquisitions currently under review
3. Capital Resources –



$40+mm in un-utilized bank debt facilities plus new asset value
Free cash flow of approximately $40mm pa
New equity – existing & new shareholders
4. Corporate Metrics (cash flow multiples, value per flowing boe , $/boe reserves, etc.)
are aligning & the potential for attractive market valuations may be
compelling over the coming year

Free cash flow provides options for dividend or growth

Future liquidity for PE shareholders is a consideration
