More particularly, this presentation contains statements concerning anticipated: business strategies, plans and objectives; potential development opportunities and drilling locations, expectations and assumptions concerning the success of future drilling and development activities, the performance of existing wells, the performance of new wells, decline rates, recovery factors, the successful application of technology and the geological characteristics of our properties; cash flow; timing and amount of future dividend payments; oil & natural gas production growth and mix; reserves; debt and bank facilities; amounts and timing of capital expenditures; hedging results; primary and secondary recovery potentials and implementation thereof; and drilling, completion and operating costs. Statements relating to "reserves" are deemed to be forward looking statements, as they involve the implied assessment, based on certain estimates and assumptions, that the reserves described exist in the quantities predicted or estimated and that the reserves can be profitably produced in the future. Actual reserve values may be greater than or less than the estimates provided in this presentation. Cash dividends on our common shares are paid at the discretion of our Board of Directors and can fluctuate. In establishing the level of cash dividends, the Board of Directors considers all factors that it deems relevant, including, without limitation, the outlook for commodity prices, our operational execution, the amount of funds from operations and capital expenditures and our prevailing financial circumstances at the time. The forward-looking statements are based on certain key expectations and assumptions made by Surge, including expectations and assumptions concerning the performance of existing wells and success obtained in drilling new wells, anticipated expenses, cash flow and capital expenditures and the application of regulatory and royalty regimes. Although Surge believes that the expectations and assumptions on which the forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on the forwardlooking statements because Surge can give no assurance that they will prove to be correct. Since forward-looking statements address future events and conditions, by their very nature they involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those currently anticipated due to a number of factors and risks. These include, but are not limited to, risks associated with the oil and gas industry in general (e.g., operational risks in development, exploration and production; delays or changes in plans with respect to exploration or development projects or capital expenditures; the uncertainty of reserve estimates; the uncertainty of estimates and projections relating to production, costs and expenses, and health, safety and environmental risks), commodity price and exchange rate fluctuations and uncertainties resulting from potential delays or changes in plans with respect to exploration or development projects or capital expenditures. Certain of these risks are set out in more detail in Surge’s Annual Information Form which has been filed on SEDAR and can be accessed at www.sedar.com. Readers are cautioned that the foregoing list of risk factors is not exhaustive. New risk factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for management to predict all of such factors and to assess in advance the impact of each such factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. The above summary of assumptions and risks related to forward-looking statements in this presentation has been provided in order to provide potential investors with a more complete perspective of our current and future operations and as such information may be not appropriate for other purposes. The forward-looking statements contained in this presentation are made as of the date hereof and Surge undertakes no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements or information, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, unless so required by applicable securities laws. 28 ENDNOTES Slide 2: (1) Based on Sproule's December 31, 2015 Price Forecast Slides 3 & 8: (1) December 31, 2015 reserves. (2) This presentation discloses drilling locations in three categories: (i) proved locations; (ii) probable locations; and (iii) unbooked locations. Proved locations and probable locations, which are sometimes collectively referred to as “booked locations”, are derived from the Company’s most recent independent reserves evaluation as of December 31, 2015 and account for drilling locations that have associated proved or probable reserves, as applicable. Unbooked locations are internal estimates based on the Company’s prospective acreage and an assumption as to the number of wells that can be drilled per section based on industry practice and internal review. Unbooked locations do not have attributed reserves or resources. Of the 744 net drilling locations identified herein, 145 net are proved locations, 72 net are probable locations and 527 are unbooked locations. Unbooked locations have specifically been identified by management as an estimation of our multi-year drilling activities based on evaluation of applicable geologic, seismic, engineering, production and reserves data on prospective acreage and geologic formations. The drilling locations on which we actually drill wells will ultimately depend upon the availability of capital, regulatory approvals, seasonal restrictions, oil and natural gas prices, costs, actual drilling results and other factors. Slides 12, 14, 19, 21: Apr 11, 2016 strip price forecast (2016 WTI: US$39.72/bbl; Henry Hub: US$2.19/mmbtu); a 1.5% per year inflation rate was applied from end of strip forecast (2024) to 2064. An inflating CAD/USD exchange rate of $0.77 (to $0.90 by 2061) was assumed. Slide 24: (1) Surge entered into a Chicago-priced swap as the Company’s firm transport contracts settle against the Chicago index. (2) If the USD/CAD average monthly rate settles above the ceiling rate, the settlement amount is based on the conditional ceiling. Slide 25: (1) Based on Sproule's December 31, 2015 Price Forecast 29 OIL AND GAS ADVISORY "In this presentation, "Boe" means barrel of oil equivalent on the basis of 6 mcf of natural gas to 1 bbl of oil. Boe's may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of 6mcf: 1 bbl is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. In addition, given that the value ratio based on the current price of crude oil as compared to natural gas is significantly different from the energy equivalency of 6: 1, utilizing a conversion on a 6:1 basis may be misleading as an indication of value. In this presentation: (i) mcf means thousand cubic feet; (ii) mcf/d means thousand cubic feet per day (iii) mmcf means million cubic feet; (iv) mmcf/d means million cubic feet per day; (v) bbls means barrels; (vi) mbbls means thousand barrels; (vii) mmbbls means million barrels; (viii) bbls/d means barrels per day; (ix) bcf means billion cubic feet; (x) mboe means thousand barrels of oil equivalent; (xi) mmboe means million barrels of oil equivalent and (xii) boe/d means barrels of oil equivalent per day. The estimated values of the future net reserves of the reserves disclosed in this presentation do not represent the market value of such reserves. The estimates of reserves and future net reserve for individual properties may not reflect the same confidence level as estimates of reserves and future net reserve for all properties due to the effects of aggregation. 30 NON-GAAP MEASURES NON-GAAP MEASURES This presentation includes non-GAAP measures as further described herein. These non-GAAP measures do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS or, alternatively, “GAAP”) and, therefore, may not be comparable with the calculation of similar measures for other entities. “Basic payout ratio” is calculated as cash dividends declared divided by funds from operations. “Cash dividends per share” represents cash dividends declared per share by Surge. “Funds from operations” represents cash flow from operating activities adjusted for changes in non-cash working capital, decommissioning expenditures, cash settled stock-based compensation and transaction costs. Management believes that funds from operations is a useful supplemental measure that provides an indication of the results generated by the Company's principal business activities before the consideration of how those activities are financed or how the results are taxed. “Netbacks” is used by the Company to help evaluate its performance as well as to evaluate acquisitions. The Company considers netbacks as a key measure as it demonstrates its profitability relative to current commodity prices. “Operating netbacks” are calculated by taking total revenues (excluding derivative gains and losses) and subtracting royalties, operating expenses and transportations costs on a per boe basis. “Net debt” is calculated as outstanding bank debt plus or minus working capital, however, excluding the fair value of financial contracts and other current obligations. Net debt is used by management to analyze the financial position and leverage of Surge. “Total Payout Ratio” is calculated as development capital plus cash dividends declared divided by funds from operations. 31
