The detailed proved reserves information presented in accordance with Item 1202(a)(2) to Regulation S-K under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act) is provided under the heading
"Supplemental Oil and Gas Information". Proved reserves are stated on a net basis after applicable royalties.
(a) Natural gas volumes are converted to BOE at six thousand cubic feet (Mcf) of gas per one barrel of oil. Barrels of oil equivalence does not necessarily result in price equivalence. The price of
natural gas on a barrel of oil equivalent basis is currently substantially lower than the corresponding price for oil and has been similarly lower for a number of years. For example, in 2014, the average
prices of West Texas Intermediate (WTI) oil and New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) natural gas were $93.00 per barrel and $4.34 per Mcf, respectively, resulting in an oil to gas ratio of over
20 to 1.
(b) Excludes proved reserves and sales volumes for California Resources which have been classified as discontinued operations.
