  2. Forward-Looking Statements This presentation is for the purpose of providing information regarding the Company, including management’s assessment of the Company’s future plans and operations. Certain statements set forth in this presentation are forward looking with the meanings of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as Amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as Amended. All statements other than statements of historical nature included in the presentation, including, without limitation, statements regarding the Company’s future financial position, business strategy, budgets, projected costs and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward looking statements. In addition, forward looking statements generally can be identified by the use of forward looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “project,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “believe,” or “continue” or the negative thereof or similar terminology. Although any forward-looking statements contained in this presentation are, to the knowledge or in the judgment of the officers and directors of the Company, believed to be reasonable, there can be no assurances that any of these expectations will prove correct or that any of the actions that are planned will be taken. Forward looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that may cause the Company’s actual performance and financial results in future periods to differ materially from any projection, estimate or forecasted results. Some of the key factors that may cause actual results to vary from those the Company expects include inherent uncertainties in interpreting engineering and reserve or production data; operating hazards; delays or cancellations of drilling operations because of weather and other natural and economic forces; fluctuations in mineral prices in response to changes in supply; competition from other companies with greater resources; environmental and other government regulations; defects in title to properties; increases in the Company’s cost of borrowing or inability to raise, or unavailability of, capital resources to fund capital expenditures; and other risks.
