June Investor Presentation

Forward-Looking Statements

This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Act of 1934. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this presentation that address activities, events or developments that the Company expects, believes or anticipates will or may occur in the future, including, among others, statements and projections regarding the completion of the Three Rivers acquisition and the Companys future financial position, operations, performance, business strategy, capital expenditures, returns, budgets, reserves, levels of production and costs and statements regarding the plans and objectives of the Companys management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. The words believe, expect, anticipate, plan, intend, estimate, potential, should, would, could, or other similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, which generally are not historical in nature. However, the absence of these words does not mean that the statements are not forward-looking. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, these statements are based on certain assumptions made by the Company based on managements experience, expectations and perception of historical trends, current conditions, anticipated future developments and other factors believed to be appropriate. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. Actual results may differ materially from those implied or expressed by the forwardlooking statements. Although the Company believes the expectations reflected in its forward-looking statements are reasonable and are based on reasonable assumptions, no assurance can be given that these assumptions are accurate or that any of these expectations will be achieved (in full or at all) or will prove to have been correct. Moreover, such statements are subject to a number of assumptions, risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the control of the Company, which may cause actual results to differ materially from those implied or expressed by the forward-looking statements. These include the factors discussed or referenced in the Risk Factors section of the Companys Form 10-K and Form 10-Qs filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and risks relating to declines in the prices we receive for our oil and natural gas, including natural gas liquids; uncertainties about the estimated quantities of oil and natural gas reserves; the effects of government regulation, permitting and other legal requirements, including new legislation or regulation of hydraulic fracturing; risks related to new federal oversight or regulation of over-the-counter derivatives; risks related to the elimination of certain federal income tax deductions currently available to oil and natural gas exploration activities; drilling and operating risks; the adequacy of our capital resources and liquidity, including access to additional borrowing capacity under our credit facility; difficult and adverse conditions in the domestic and global capital and credit markets; risks related to the concentration of our operations in the Permian Basin of Southeast New Mexico and West Texas; potential financial losses or earnings reductions from our commodity price risk management program; shortages of oilfield equipment, services and qualified personnel and increased costs for such equipment, services and personnel; risks and liabilities associated with acquired properties or businesses; uncertainties about our ability to successfully execute our business and financial plans and strategies; uncertainties about our ability to replace reserves and economically develop our current reserves; general economic and business conditions, either internationally or domestically or in the jurisdictions in which we operate; competition in the oil and natural gas industry; uncertainty concerning our assumed or possible future results of operations; our substantial existing indebtedness and other important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected.

Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on any of the Companys forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which such statements are made and the Company undertakes no obligation to correct or update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law.
This presentation includes financial measures that are not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals (GAAP) including EBITDAX, adjusted net income, and cash margin. While management believes that such measures are useful for investors, they should not be used as a replacement for financial measures that are in accordance with GAAP. For a reconciliation of each to the nearest comparable measure in accordance with GAAP, please see the Appendix.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Oil and Gas Quantities

The SEC requires oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose proved reserves, which are those quantities of oil and gas, which, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically produciblefrom a given date forward, from known reservoirs, and under existing economic conditions (using the trailing 12-month average first-day-of-the-month prices), operating methods, and government regulations prior to the time at which contracts providing the right to operate expire, unless evidence indicates that renewal is reasonably certain, regardless of whether deterministic or probabilistic methods are used for the estimation. The SEC also permits the disclosure of separate estimatesof probable or possible reserves that meet SEC definitions for such reserves; however, we currently do not disclose probable or possible reserves in our SEC filings. In this presentation, proved reserves attributable to the Company at December 31, 2011 are estimated utilizing SEC reserve recognition standards and pricing assumptions based on the trailing 12-month average first-day-of-the-month prices of $92.71 per Bbl of oil and $4.12 per MMBtu of natural gas. The Company's estimate of its total proved reserves at December 31, 2011 is based on reports provided by Cawley, Gillespie & Associates, Inc. and Netherland, Sewell & Associates, Inc., independent petroleum engineers. Proved reserves estimated for the 1Q12 Midland Basin acquisition at November 1, 2011 are internal estimates based on a price of $85.00 per Bbl of oil and $4.00 per MMBtu of natural gas held flat over the life of the reserves, and are not determined in accordance with SEC rules. Accordingly, proved reserves actually booked for the PDC acquisition in the Companys SEC filings may be lower than the internal estimates included in this presentation. Proved reserves estimated for the Three Rivers acquisition at April 1, 2012 are internal estimates based on a price of $98.20 per Bbl of oil and $4.24 per MMBtu of natural gas held flat over the life of the reserves, and are not determined in accordance with SEC rules. Accordingly, proved reserves actually booked for the Three Rivers acquisition in the Companys SEC filings may be lower than the internal estimates included in this presentation.

We may use the terms unproved reserves, EUR per well and upside potential to describe estimates of potentially recoverable hydrocarbons that the SEC rules prohibit from being included in filings with the SEC. These are the Companys internal estimates of hydrocarbon quantities that may be potentially discovered through exploratory drilling or recovered with additional drilling or recovery techniques. These quantities may no t constitute reserves within the meaning of the Society of Petroleum Engineers Petroleum Resource Management System or SEC rules and do not include any proved reserves. EUR estimates and drilling locations have not been risked by Company management. Actual locations drilled and quantities that may be ultimately recovered from the Companys interests could differ substantially. There is no commitment by the Company to drill all of the drilling locations which have been attributed to these quantities. Factors affecting ultimate recovery include the scope of our ongoing drilling program, which will be directly affected by the availability of capital, drilling and production costs, availability of drilling services and equipment, drilling results, lease expirations, transportation constraints, regulatory approvals and other factors; and actual drilling results, including geological and mechanical factors affecting recovery rates. Estimates of unproved reserves, per well EUR and upside potential may change significantly as development of the Companys oil and gas assets provide additional data.
Our production forecasts and expectations for future periods are dependent upon many assumptions, including estimates of prod uction decline rates from existing wells and the undertaking and outcome of future drilling activity, which may be affected by significant commodity price declines or drilling cost increases.

EBITDAX is not a m easure of net incom e or cash flow as determ ined by GAAP. Our EBITDAX m easure prov ides additional inform ation which m ay be used to better understand our operations. EBITDAX is one of sev eral m etrics that we use as a supplem ental financial m easurem ent in the ev aluation of our business and should not be considered as an alternativ e to, or m ore m eaningful than, net incom e, as an indicator of our operating perform ance. Certain item s excluded from EBITDAX are significant com ponents in understanding and assessing a com pany s financial perform ance, such as a com pany s cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic cost of depreciable assets, none of which are com ponents of EBITDAX.

We believ e that EBITDAX is a widely followed m easure of operating perform ance and is one of m any m etrics used by our m anagem ent team and by other users of our consolidated financial statem ents. For exam ple, EBITDAX can be used to assess our operating perform ance and return on capital in com parison to other independent exploration and production com panies without regard to financial or capital structure, and to assess the financial perform ance of our assets and our com pany without regard to capital structure or historical cost basis.
