Too good to be true or global economic machine firing on all cylinders?

  • Record low unemployment
  • Economic growth here and abroad
  • Economic optimism so strong that Democrats feel better about the

economy than they did during the Obama years.

  • Companies bringing back jobs and money from overseas
  • Bank forecasters say a robust 4% GDP growth is possible

Worries about a market top…

  • Main market fears are:
  • Surge in Inflation as economies overheat
  • Risk-off swing in market sentiment
  • Bankruptcy cycle given the amount of cheap, low quality

debt extended during the low interest rate cycle since 2008

  • Bankruptcy cycle in China would be particularly problematic

Saudi Arabian authorities netted more than $106bn in financial settlements in a wide- reaching anti-corruption drive. The attorney- general said they seized properties, cash, securities and other assets; 56 of the 381 suspects questioned remain in custody (though none at the Ritz). Businessmen, ministers and royals have been caught up in Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s campaign, which he launched in November.

The big question facing E&P’s is what to do with higher revenues coming from the oil price rally. Will more money go to shareholders in the form of dividend increases and buybacks, or will spending (drilling) pick up? Some analysts are worried E&P’s will waver from hard- fought financial discipline now that oil prices have improved. W a r w i c k G r

The long-term good news?

  • Oil discoveries hit a 60 year low in 2015, then dropped again in 2016
  • 174 discoveries last year, versus 400-500 per year up to 2013
  • E&P’s have cut exploration spending and large fields have become

rarer to find

  • Typical time from discovery to production is 5-7 years
  • World is likely to become increasingly reliant on unconventional

sources such as US shale

  • Shortfall of discoveries today may lead to tighter supplies over the

next decade

This makes U.S. companies be "price-takers," without the same market-altering power.

"This difference between price-taking and price-making is why describing the United States as 'energy dominant' is misleading. To me, 'dominance' implies an ability to move markets, whereas the U.S. industry, while strong and increasingly important to global energy security, is not structured to achieve that end.”

LEGAL DISCLAIMER

This presentation is confidential and may not be distributed, transmitted, or otherwise communicated to other, in whole

  • r in part, without the express consent of Warwick

Management Company, LLC or any of its affiliates (“Warwick”). Recipients of this presentation (and their representatives) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, (i) the tax treatment and tax structure

  • f the private investment products discussed herein and (ii)

any of their transactions, and all materials of any kind (including opinions and other tax analyses) relating to such tax treatment and tax structure. This presentation does not constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, any security, product or service. Unless otherwise noted, information included herein is presented as of the dates indicated. This presentation is not complete and the information contained herein may change at any time without notice. Warwick does not have any responsibility to update the presentation to account for such changes. Warwick makes no representation of warranty, expressed or implied, with respect to the accuracy, reasonableness, or completeness of any of the information contained herein, including, but not limited to, information obtained from third parties. Warwick does not act for you and is not responsible for providing you with protections afforded its clients. The information contained herein in not intended to provide, and should not be relied upon for, accounting, legal or tax advice or investment recommendations. Investors should make an independent investigation of the investment described herein, including consulting their tax, legal, accounting or other advisors, about the matters discussed herein. Information contained herein may include information respecting prior investment performance of one or more products or investments including gross and/or net internal rates of return (“IRRs”). Information respecting prior performance, while a useful tool in evaluating each product’s investment activities, is not necessarily indicative of actual results that may be achieved for unrealized

  • investments. The realization of such performance is

dependent upon many factors, many of which are beyond the control of Warwick. Further, there can be no assurance that the indicated valuations for unrealized investments accurately reflect the amounts for which the subject investments could be sold. Unless otherwise noted, all IRR amounts described herein are calculated as of the dates

  • indicated. “Gross IRR” of the products focused on natural

resources represents the cumulative investment-related cash flows for all of the investors in the applicable products on the basis of the actual timing of investment inflows and outflows (for unrealized investments assuming disposition of the respective “as of” dates referenced) aggregated on a gross basis quarterly, and the return is annualized and compounded before management fees, carried interest and certain other products expenses (including interest incurred by the products themselves) and measures the returns on such products’ investments as a whole without regard to whether all of the returns would, if distributed, be payable to such products’ investors. “Net IRR” of the products focused on natural resources means the Gross IRR applicable to all investors, including related parties which may not pay fees, net of management fees, organizational expenses, transaction costs, and certain other product expenses (including interest incurred by the products themselves) and realized carried interest all offset to the extent of interest income, and measures returns based on amounts that, if distributed, would be paid to investors of the products; to the extent that a product focused on natural resources exceeds all requirements detailed within the applicable product agreement, the estimated unrealized value is adjusted such that a portion of the unrealized gain is allocated to the general partner, thereby reducing the balance attributable to the product investors. The multiple of invested capital (“MOIC”) is derived from dividing the sum of the estimated remaining value and realized proceeds by the amount invested, except where

  • therwise specified. The Gross MOIC does not reflect the

effect of management fees, incentive compensation, certain expenses or taxes. The Net MOIC means the Gross MOIC net of the effect of management fees, incentive compensation, certain expenses and taxes. References to EBITDA in the attached presentation should not be construed as a substitute for income from operations, net income or cash flow from operating activities (as determined in accordance with GAAP) for the purpose of analyzing operating performance, financial position and cash flows. To the extent applicable, reference is made to the subject portfolio company’s publicly available reports and filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization. Investing in products focused on natural resources is speculative and involves a substantial degree of risk. Risks include, but are not limited to, the fact that such products have, or may have: a limited or no operating history; volatile performance; leverage use; limited liquidity with no secondary market expected and restrictions on transferring interests; high fees and expenses; and a dependence on Warwick, which will have exclusive authority to select and manage such product’s investments. There can be no assurance that the investment objectives described herein will be achieved. Nothing herein is intended to imply that a product’s investment methodology may be considered “conservative”, “safe”, “risk free”, or “risk adverse”. Economic, market and other conditions could also cause a product to alter its investment objectives, guidelines and

  • restrictions. Investment losses may occur.

“Case studies” have been provided for discussion purposes

  • nly and are no guarantee of future results or that such

investment opportunities will become available to the product(s). Certain information contained herein may be “forward- looking” in nature. Due to various risks and uncertainties, actual events or results or the actual performance of the products may differ materially from those reflected or contemplated in such forward-looking information. As such, undue reliance should not be placed on such information. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of terminology including, but not limited to, “may”, “will”, “should”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “target”, “project”, “estimate”, “intend”, “continue” or “believe” or the negatives thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology. Past performance is not indicative nor a guarantee of future returns. Target IRR and returns are presented gross and do not reflect the effect of management fees, incentive compensation, certain expenses or taxes. The target IRR returns presented are not a prediction, projection or guarantee of future

  • performance. The target IRR and returns were calculated

based on certain assumptions, which include recent performance data and current market conditions. Warwick gives no assurance that targeted returns will be achieved or that the methodology and assumptions used to estimate such returns are reasonable. Index performance and yield data are shown for illustrative purposes only and have limitations when used for comparison or for other purposes due to, among other matters, volatility, credit or other factors (such as number and types of securities). It may not be possible to directly invest in one or more of these indices and the holdings of any Warwick product may differ markedly from the holdings

  • f any such index in terms of levels of diversification, types of

securities or assets represented and other significant factors. Indices are unmanaged, do not charge any fees or expenses, assume reinvestment of income and do not employ special investment techniques such as leveraging or short selling. No such index is indicative of the future results of any Warwick product. Additional information may be available upon request.
