of oil and natural gas which geological and engineering data demonstrate
with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from
known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions.
Proved developed reserves are proved reserves that can reasonably
be expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing
equipment and operating methods.
Proved oil and natural gas reserve quantities
at December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, and the related discounted
future net cash flows before income taxes are based on estimates
prepared by Ryder Scott Company Petroleum Engineers, Fairchild &
Wells, Inc., LaRoche Petroleum Consultants, Ltd. (2007 and 2006)
and DeGolyer and MacNaughton (2005) independent petroleum engineers.
Such estimates have been prepared in accordance with guidelines
established by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
