The statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K ("Annual Report") that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements as that term is defined in Section 21E of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and therefore involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Such forward-looking statements may be or may concern, among other things, capital expenditures, drilling activity, development activities, cost savings, production efforts and volumes, hydrocarbon reserves, hydrocarbon prices, liquidity, regulatory matters, and competition. Such forward-looking statements generally are accompanied by words such as "plan," "budget," "estimate," "expect," "predict," "anticipate," "projected," "should," "believe," or other words that convey the uncertainty of future events or outcomes. Such forward-looking information is based upon management’s current plans, expectations, estimates and assumptions and is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect current plans, anticipated actions, the timing of such actions and the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. As a consequence, actual results may differ materially from expectations, estimates or assumptions expressed in or implied by any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company, including those regarding the Company’s financial results, levels of oil and gas production or revenues, capital expenditures, and capital resource activities. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are: fluctuations of the prices received or demand for the Company’s oil and natural gas; the uncertainty of drilling results and reserve estimates; operating hazards; requirements for capital; general economic conditions; competition and government regulations; as well as the risks and uncertainties discussed in this Annual Report, including, without limitation, the portions referenced above and the uncertainties set forth from time to time in the Company’s other public reports, filings, and public statements. Also, because of the volatility in oil and gas prices and other factors, interim results are not necessarily indicative of those for a full year.
