While we are reasonably certain of recovering our calculated reserves, the process of estimating<br />
natural gas and oil reserves is complex. It requires various assumptions, including natural gas and oil prices,<br />
drilling and operating expenses, capital expenditures, taxes and availability of funds. Our third party engineers<br />
must project production rates, estimate timing and amount of development expenditures, analyze available<br />
geological, geophysical, production and engineering data, and the extent, quality and reliability of all of this<br />
data can vary. Actual future production, natural gas and oil prices, revenues, taxes, development expenditures,<br />
operating expenses and quantities of recoverable natural gas and oil reserves most likely will vary from<br />
estimates. Any significant variance could materially affect the estimated quantities and net present value of<br />
reserves. In addition, estimates of proved reserves may be adjusted to reflect production history, results of<br />
exploration and development, prevailing natural gas and oil prices and other factors, many of which are beyond<br />
our control.<br />
