    COMPANY DESCRIPTION:Coastal Energy conducts production and exploration activities in5,021 square kilometres offshore Thailand, where it has a 100%interest. It is developing and appraising two oil fields, Songkhlaand Bua Ban, which produce 10,500 Bbl/d currently. Thecompany has an inventory of exploration prospects in itsunderexplored offshore acreage.All amounts in C$ unless otherwise noted.

    Energy -- Oil and Gas, Exploration and Production

    A WIN AND A WIN

    Investment highlights

    Exploration SuccessExploration SuccessExploration SuccessExploration Success: Coastal reported a dual-zone discovery at BuaBan North A-01. The well encountered pay in two upper zones, the

    Miocene and the Upper Oligocene, as well as pay in the deeper

    Eocene.

    Frac SuccessFrac SuccessFrac SuccessFrac Success: The company also announced that its single stagefracs were successful at Bua Ban, where both wells are flowing back

    oil and frac fluid. Especially encouraging is the A-07 rate of 270

    bbl/d of oil at a 60% oil cut with frac fluid. This well did not

    produce pre-frac. No rates are out yet for the A-04.

    IntroducingIntroducingIntroducingIntroducing 2012 estimates2012 estimates2012 estimates2012 estimates: We are estimating production of10,965 bbl/d for 2012, solely based on development locations. This

    production rate spins out cash flow of $2.06 per fully diluted share

    based on our price deck of $92.50/bbl oil in 2012. We estimate the

    company will spend $120 million in capex and exit the year with net

    cash of $85.3 million. Please refer to Figure 1 for a full summary of

    the estimates.

    Valuation and recommendation

    We reiterate our BUY recommendation and C$9.25 target price. Our

    target price is based on a 5.4x multiple to our 2011 fully diluted CFPS

    estimate of $1.63 and represents 1.5x its booked year-end 2009 NAVPS

    of $6.27 and approximates our estimated portfolio NAV of $9.55 pershare, fully diluted.

    All of our production and cash flow estimates are based solely on

    development activity no exploration success has been included. This is

    true of the successes noted above until we have actual flow rates to

    factor in.

    EXPLORATION SUCCESSES

    New discovery at Bua Ban North

    The A-01 exploration well (A-01) encountered 32 and 27 feet of net oil pay in the Mioceneand Upper Oligocene zones, respectively, both with 25% average porosity. The Eocene

    interval also encountered 70 feet of pay oil but was found 700 feet deeper than expected

    and is not expected to flow naturally. Unfortunately, the main Lower Oligocene zone was

    breached at this level and was wet.

    A MOPU is currently being mobilized to begin flow testing the well once site preparations

    are made.

    A second exploration well at Bua Ban North (A-02) has also begun and will test multi-zone

    potential adjacent to the A-01 location in a different fault block.

    Successful fracs

    A single stage frac was completed on two wells at Bua Ban, the non-producing A-07 andthe producing A-04.

    The A-07 well is currently producing 270 bbl/d of oil at a 60% oil-cut in the Oligocene. The

    remaining volumes are still frac fluids as the well continues to clean up after the

    installation of a downhole ESP. This well was drilled in August 2010 and encountered a

    100 foot oil column in the Oligocene but was tight and did not flow naturally.

    An ESP is currently being installed on the A-04 well that flowed at 80 bbl/d pre-frac from

    the Eocene zone. The well was flowing back frac fluid and oil at a 50% ratio before being

    shut in for the pump installation.

    No flow rates have been given for the A-04 but we are very optimistic given the success of

    the A-07 well that didnt flow at all pre-frac.

    Non-commercial success

    The Benjarong A-01 well is producing 200 bbl/d of fluid at a 95% oil cut after a frac job.

    Unfortunately, this is a sub-economic rate.

    The Benjarong A-02 well was acidized without success.

    PRODUCTION UPDATE

    Total offshore production is approximately 10,500 bbl/d.

    Songkhla

    The sidetrack of the Songkhla A-07 well into the A-09 fault block encountered 45 feet ofnet pay in the Lower Oligocene at 18% porosity and 33 feet of net pay in the Eocene at 17%

    porosity. The well was completed and flow tested at 800 bbl/d, whereas it intermittently

    produced 150 bbl/d before being shut in before the sidetrack a pretty good trade in our

    books.

    Production from the A-12 well has been tied in and is flowing at approximately 1,600

    bbl/d. The A-11 well is producing 150 bbl/d in the Eocene interval with a perforation in

    the 44 feet of pay in the Oligocene interval with a workover unit still to come.

    3/9

    Daily Letter | 310 March 2011

    Current production at Songkhla is approximately 8,500 bopd.

    Bua Ban

    Current production at Bua Ban, excluding the A-04 and A-07, is approximately 2,000 bopd

    with four wells producing.

    OPERATIONAL AND FINANCIAL ESTIMATES

    We are introducing our 2012 estimates at this time and tweaking our 2011E average based

    on the drilling calendar to date, which pushes out the development timing guidance from

    last fall.

    That said, the recent Bua Ban North exploration success and Bua Ban production from

    fraced wells could have an impact very soon. In the absence of flow rates and tie-in dates,

    we are choosing to err on the side of conservatism.

    All of our production and cash flow estimates are based solely on development activity no

    exploration success has been included.We have applied the Canaccord Genuity price deck of $87.50/bbl in 2011 and $92.50/bbl

    in 2012.

    Investment risks

    As an international oil and gas company, Coastal is subject to the following risks:

    Commodity prices

    Coastal is exposed to the prices for crude oil and natural gas, which determine its

    revenues. Adverse changes in these commodities could impact Coastal Energy's cash flow

    and profitability.

    Currency risk

    Coastal operates in US dollars, Thai baht, British pounds, Canadian dollars and euros. It

    does not engage in hedging activities to mitigate the impact of adverse fluctuations in these

    currencies.

    Thailand political, legal, and regulatory regime

    Adverse changes to the business environment, contract sanctity, or changes in regulations

    or fiscal terms could impact Coastal's ability to execute its business plan or the profitability

    of the business plan.

    Operational risks

    Operational risks could occur in the process of securing high-quality exploration assets,

    conducting geological/geophysical evaluations, carrying out drilling programs for

    exploration and development, putting wells on production and delivering cargoes for sale.

    Interest rate risk

    The company has entered into an interest rate swap on half of the expected loan amount

    per the loan agreement with BNP. The company is exposed to interest rate risk on its

    outstanding borrowings and short-term investments.
