Forward Looking Statements This presentation contains “forward-looking statements.” Such statements may relate to capital expenditures, drilling and exploitation activities, production efforts and sales volumes, Proved, Probable, and Possible reserves, operating and administrative costs, future operating or financial results, cash flow and anticipated liquidity, business strategy and potential property acquisitions. These forward-looking statements are generally accompanied by words such as “estimated”, “projected”, “potential”, “anticipated”, “forecasted” or other words that convey the uncertainty of future events or outcomes. Although we believe the expectations and forecasts reflected in these and other forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance they will prove to have been correct. These statements are based on our current plans and assumptions and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties as further outlined in our Forms 10-K and 10-Q. Therefore, the actual results may differ materially from the expectations, estimates or assumptions expressed in or implied by any forward-looking statement and we undertake no obligation to update these estimates for events after this presentation. Cautionary Note Regarding Oil and Gas Reserves The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules allow oil and gas companies to disclose not only Proved reserves, but also Probable and Possible reserves that meet the SEC’s definitions of such

  • terms. We disclose Proved, Probable and Possible reserves in our filings with the SEC and this presentation.

Estimates of Probable and Possible reserves are by their nature more speculative than estimates of Proved reserves and are subject to greater uncertainties, and accordingly the likelihood of recovering those reserves is subject to substantially greater risk. Our reserves as of June 30, 2019 were estimated by DeGolyer and MacNaughton, an independent petroleum engineering firm.

Long-Life Low Decline Oil Acquisition

NYSE American: EPM

Conventional Oil Hamilton Dome Field

Location

  • Geographically located in NW Wyoming

about twenty miles northwest of Thermopolis in Hot Springs County.

  • Geologically located in the SW part of the

Big Horn Basin producing primarily from the Tensleep and Phosphoria reservoirs from approximately 3,000’ deep.

Key Advantages

  • 23.51% Non-operated working interest and

19.70% revenue interest (83.79% revenue interest to 8/8ths)

  • Long life reserves - premier field having

produced over 160 MMBO over 100 years

  • 100% Oil production - averaging low single-digit

decline rates

  • Top tier operator - Merit Energy will continue to
  • perate this field as they have for 20+ years

Note: 1. Probable and Possible reserves involve considerably more risk of recovery than proved reserves – see cautionary note on page 2

Key Metrics

  • Addition of Probable and Possible

Reserves more than doubles the reserve base

  • Proved Reserves are based on

14.4% incremental CO2 recovery (up from 13.0% in 2015)

  • Probable1 and Possible1

Reserves are based on improved recovery rates

  • Remaining PUD costs for Phase

V are ~$9M (net), or ~$6.00/BOE

  • No capex is required for

undeveloped probable & possible reserves

  • Hamilton Dome is excluded, and

would otherwise add ~30% to Proved Developed Reserves
