Forward Looking Statements
Certain statements made and information
contained herein constitute "forward-looking information" (within
the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation). Such
statements and information (together, "forward looking statements")
relate to future events or the Company's future performance,
business prospects or opportunities. Forward-looking statements
include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to
estimates of reserves and or resources, future production levels,
future capital expenditures and their allocation to exploration and
development activities, future drilling and other exploration and
development activities, ultimate recovery of reserves or resources
and dates by which certain areas will be explored, developed or
reach expected operating capacity, that are based on forecasts of
future results, estimates of amounts not yet determinable and
assumptions of management.
All statements other than statements of
historical fact may be forward-looking statements. Statements
concerning proven and probable reserves and resource estimates may
also be deemed to constitute forward-looking statements and reflect
conclusions that are based on certain assumptions that the reserves
and resources can be economically exploited. Any statements that
express or involve discussions with respect to predictions,
expectations, beliefs, plans, projections, objectives, assumptions
or future events or performance (often, but not always, using words
or phrases such as "seek", "anticipate", "plan", "continue",
"estimate", "expect, "may", "will", "project", "predict",
"potential", "targeting", "intend", "could", "might", "should",
"believe" and similar expressions) are not statements of historical
fact and may be "forward-looking statements". Forward-looking
statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other
factors that may cause actual results or events to differ
materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking
statements. The Company believes that the expectations reflected in
those forward-looking statements are reasonable, but no assurance
can be given that these expectations will prove to be correct and
such forward-looking statements should not be unduly relied upon.
The Company does not intend, and does not assume any obligation, to
update these forward-looking statements, except as required by
applicable laws. These forward-looking statements involve risks and
uncertainties relating to, among other things, changes in oil
prices, results of exploration and development activities,
uninsured risks, regulatory changes, defects in title, availability
of materials and equipment, timeliness of government or other
regulatory approvals, actual performance of facilities,
availability of financing on reasonable terms, availability of
third party service providers, equipment and processes relative to
specifications and expectations and unanticipated environmental
impacts on operations. Actual results may differ materially from
those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.
