Certain information contained herein may contain forward looking statements including management's assessment of future plans and operations, drilling plans and the timing thereof, commodity price risk management strategies, expected 2012 and 2013 average production and exit rate, estimates of commodity prices and exchange rates, estimated 2012 and 2013 cash from operations, estimated recovery from wells to be drilled in 2012 capital expenditures and the nature of capital expenditures and cash from operations per share and estimated 2012 and 2013 year end debt levels, may constitute forward-looking statements under applicable securities laws and necessarily involve risks including, without limitation, risks associated with oil and gas exploration, development, exploitation, production, marketing and transportation, loss of markets, volatility of commodity prices, currency fluctuations, imprecision of reserve estimates, actual results from wells to be drilled may not be similar to the results from previous wells drilled, environmental risks, competition from other producers, inability to retain drilling rigs and other services, incorrect assessment of the value of acquisitions, failure to realize the anticipated benefits of acquisitions, delays resulting from or inability to obtain required regulatory approvals and ability to access sufficient capital from internal and external sources. The recovery and estimates of Bellatrix's reserves provided herein are estimates only and there is no guarantee that the estimated reserves will be recovered.

The foregoing are included to provide readers with information as to the expected impact results on the cash from operations of the Corporation during the periods indicated and the ability of the Company to fund its ongoing operations and capital expenditures and the resulting debt and may not be appropriate for other purposes. The forward-looking statements contained herein are made as at the date hereof and Bellatrix does not undertake any obligation to update publicly or to revise any of the included forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by applicable securities laws. NON-GAAP MEASURES: This presentation contains the term "cash from operations" which should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than "cash flow from operating activities" as determined in accordance with Canadian GAAP as an indicator of the Company's performance. Therefore reference to cash from operations or cash from operations per share may not be comparable with the calculation of similar measures for other entities. Management uses cash from operations to analyze operating performance and leverage and considers cash from operations to be a key measure as it demonstrates the Company's ability to generate the cash necessary to fund future capital investments and to repay debt. The reconciliation between cash flow from operating activities and funds flow from operations (the Company calculates funds flow from operations in the same manner as cash from operations) can be found in the Company's Management's Discussion and Analysis. Cash from operations per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares for the period.

ADVISORY

FD&A COSTS: This presentation includes calculations of finding, development and acquisition ("FD&A") costs for the year ended December 31, 2011. National Instrument 51-101 Standards of Disclosure for Oil and Gas Activities ("NI 51-101") requires that written disclosure of finding and development costs to be calculated in accordance with Section 5.15 of NI 51-101 which does not include the reserves additions associated with acquisitions or the costs of acquisitions in the calculation. The calculations of FD&A in this presentation include the reserves additions associated with acquisitions and the costs of acquisitions as the Company believes that including the effect of acquisitions provides useful information to investors. FD&A costs for the year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 are $9.29/boe and $12.89/ proved plus probable boe respectively and the average FD&A for the last three completed years is $13.69/ proved plus probable boe. The finding and developments costs calculated in accordance with Section 5.15 of NI 51-101 for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 are $13.00/proved boe ($9.29/proved plus probable boe) and $8.37/proved boe ($6.06/proved plus probable boe) and the average finding and development costs for the last three completed years is $10.59/proved boe ($13.69/proved plus probable boe). The aggregate of the exploration and development costs incurred in the most recent financial year and the change during that year in estimated future development costs generally will not reflect total finding and development costs related to reserve additions for that year. BOE PRESENTATION: In this presentation, production is stated in barrels of oil equivalent (“BOE”) using a six to one conversion basis when converting thousands of cubic feet of natural gas to barrels of oil and a one to one conversion basis for natural gas liquids. Such conversion may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A 6:1 conversion ratio is based on energy equivalence between natural gas and oil at the burner tip and does not represent economic equivalence at the wellhead or point of sale. INITIAL PRODUCTION RATES: Initial Production rates discloses herein may not be indicative of long-term performance or ultimate recovery. ESTIMATED ULTIMATE RECOVERY (EUR): In this presentation, estimated ultimate recovery for Cardium oil wells is a representative value within the range of estimates of proved plus probable reserves per well as evaluated by Sproule Associates Limited effective December 31, 2011 based on forecast prices and costs. Estimated ultimate recovery for Notikewin wells is a representative value within the range of estimates of proved plus probable reserves per well as evaluated by Sproule Associates Limited effective December 31, 2011 based on forecast prices and costs. Estimated ultimate recovery for Duvernay wells does not represent an estimate of resources but has been provided to show management's assumptions used for its internal projections and plans. There is no certainty that any resources will be discovered for such Duvernay wells. If discovered, there is no certainty that it will be commercially viable to produce any portion of the resources.

CURRENCY: All dollar amounts in this presentation are Canadian dollars unless otherwise identified.
