(1) The decrease in the U.S. revision in 2007 is primarily attributable to the sale of our non-Appalachian E&P operations. The 2006 U.S. revision is comprised
of approximately 27.6 million barrels of natural gas liquids and 13 million barrels of oil/condensate. Natural gas liquids revisions were primarily the result
of additional contractual changes with third-party gas processors in which we now take title to our processed natural gas liquids, and residue gas and liquids
reserve amounts recognized under such contracts. Oil/condensate revisions were primarily the result of positive performance revisions at Gulf of Mexico deep-
water locations. The 2005 U.S. revision is primarily due to an increase in plant liquids that resulted from a contractual change for a portion of our gas proc-
essed by third parties. We now take title to and market the natural gas liquids extracted from this gas.
(2) Ending reserves for 2007, 2006 and 2005 included 0.3 million, 114.6 million and 127.6 million barrels of oil/condensate, respectively, and 12.3, 117.7
and 90.1 million barrels of natural gas liquids, respectively.
