• “Proved" or "1P" reserves are those reserves that can be estimated with a high degree of certainty to be recoverable. It is likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will exceed the estimated provedreserves.
• "Probable" reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than proved reserves. It is equally likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will be greater or less than thesum of the estimated proved plus probable" reserves.
• “Possible” reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than probable reserves. There is a 10 percent probability that the quantities actually recovered will equal or exceed thesum of proved plus probable plus possible reserves. It is unlikely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will exceed the sum of the estimated proved plus probable plus possible reserves.
• "2P" means Proved Plus Probable reserves.
• "3P" means Proved Plus Probable Plus Possible reserves.
• Estimates of the net present value of the future net revenue from Parex' reserves do not represent the fair market value of Parex' reserves. The estimates of reserves and future net revenue from individualproperties or wells may not reflect the same confidence level as estimates of reserves and future net revenue for all properties and wells, due to the effects of aggregation.

• This presentation contains certain oil and gas metrics, including F&D, FD&A, FD&A/boe, reserves life index (or RLI), operating netbacks, cash netbacks, funds flow from operations netback, CAGR, replacementratio, and recycle ratios, which do not have standardized meanings or standard methods of calculation and therefore such measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies andshould not be used to make comparisons. Such metrics have been included herein to provide readers with additional measures to evaluate the Company's performance; however, such measures are notreliable indicators of the future performance of the Company and future performance may not compare to the performance in previous periods and therefore such metrics should not be unduly relied upon.Management uses these oil and gas metrics for its own performance measurements and to provide investors with measures to compare the Company's operations over time. Readers are cautioned that theinformation provided by these metrics, or that can be derived from the metrics presented herein, should not be relied upon for investment or other purposes. A summary of the calculations of such metricsare as follows:
o Finding and development (“F&D”) costs are calculated by dividing capital expenditures by the change in reserves within the applicable reserves category. F&D costs, including FDC, include all capitalexpenditures in the year as well as the change in FDC required to bring the reserves within the specified reserves category on production.
o Finding, development and acquisition ("FD&A”) costs represent the costs of property acquisition, exploration, and development incurred. The aggregate of the exploration and development costsincurred 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 reservesadditions for that year.
o FD&A costs are calculated as capital expenditures plus net acquisition costs plus change in FDC. FD&A per boe is calculated as FD&A costs divided by reserves additions for the applicable period.
o Reserves life index is calculated by dividing the applicable reserves category by the annualized fourth quarter production.
o Replacement ratio is calculated by dividing the annual reserve additions by the annual production
o Recycle ratio is calculated as FFO per boe divided by F&D or FD&A, as applicable
o Funds Flow from Operations per boe is a non-GAAP measure that includes all cash generated from operating activities and is calculated before changes in non-cash working capital, divided by salesvolumes for the period. In Q2 2019, the Company changed how it presents funds flow provided by (used in) operations to present a more comparable basis to industry presentation.
o Operating netback is calculated as oil & gas revenue less expenses (royalties, production and transportation) divided by production for the period.
o CAGR is calculated as:
i. (2020 debt adjusted production per share divided by 2016 debt adjusted production per share)1/4 – 1, and
ii. (2020 2P reserves per share divided by 2016 2P reserves per share)1/4 – 1
o Free cash flow yield is calculated as funds flow minus capex divided by market capitalization (converted in USD)
o Return on average capital employed (ROACE), a non-GAAP measure, is calculated as net income (loss)/(average (net debt + shareholders’ equity))
o Cash return on invested capital calculated (CROIC), a non-GAAP measure, is calculated as EBITDA divided by average carrying value of exploration and evaluation assets and property, plant andequipment assets, excluding accumulated DD&A
• "BOEs" may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A BOE conversion ratio of six thousand cubic feet of natural gas to one barrel of oil equivalent (6 mcf:1 bbl) is based on an energy equivalencyconversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. Given that the value ratio based on the current price of crude oil as compared to naturalgas is significantly different from the energy equivalency of 6:1, utilizing a conversion on a 6:1 basis may be misleading as an indication of value.

ADVISORIES
• All of Parex’ crude oil reserves disclosed herein are located in Colombia. The Company has light, medium and heavy crude oil, natural gas liquids and conventional natural gas product types. The recovery andreserve estimates of reserves provided in this document are estimates only, and there is no guarantee that the estimated reserves will be recovered. Actual reserves may eventually prove to be greater than,or less than, the estimates provided herein. All evaluations and reviews of future net revenue contained in GLJ's reports are stated prior to any provision for interest costs or general and administrative costsand after the deduction of royalties, development costs, production costs, well abandonment costs and estimated future capital expenditures for wells to which reserves have been assigned.
• Certain other information contained in this presentation has been prepared by third-party sources, which information has not been independently audited or verified by Parex. No representation or warranty,express or implied, is made by Parex as to the accuracy or completeness of the information contained in this document, and nothing contained in this presentation is, or shall be relied upon as, a promise orrepresentation by Parex.
• This presentation contains references to type well production and economics, which are derived, at least in part, from available information respecting the well economics of other companies and, as such,there is no guarantee that Parex will achieve the stated or similar results, capital costs and return costs representative per well.
• References in this presentation to initial production test rates, initial "flow" rates, initial flow testing, and "peak" rates are useful in confirming the presence of hydrocarbons, however such rates are notdeterminative of the rates at which such wells will commence production and decline thereafter and are not indicative of long term performance or of ultimate recovery. While encouraging, investors arecautioned not to place reliance on such rates in calculating the aggregate production for Parex. Parex has not conducted a pressure transient analysis or well-test interpretation on the wells referenced in thispresentation. As such, all data should be considered to be preliminary until such analysis or interpretation has been done.
Financial Matters
• The Company discloses several financial measures that do not have any standardized meaning prescribed under International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). These financial measures include operatingnetbacks, cash netbacks, funds flow netbacks, funds flow per share, free cashflow, funds flow from operations netback and funds flow from operations, return on average capital employed, cash return oninvested capital calculated and EBITDA. Management believes that these financial measures are useful supplemental information to analyze operating performance and provide an indication of the resultsgenerated by the Company’s principal business activities. Investors should be cautioned that these measures should not be construed as an alternative to net income or other measures of financialperformance as determined in accordance with “Oil and Gas Information” and IFRS. Parex’s method of calculating these measures may differ from other companies, and accordingly, they may not becomparable to similar measures used by other companies. Please see the Company’s most recent Management’s Discussion and Analysis, which is available at www.sedar.com for additional information aboutthese financial measures.
