pricing to rally. A tariff truce was announced between China and the United States. Enbridge had to shut

Commodities

Week in Review

In Commodities, ECM and DCM, let’s go to journalism standards, even

though that’s not how we get the text from those groups. Main change is

that any number below 10 is spelled out (one instead of 1). This does not

apply to statistical analyses, percentages, or money, of course.

Let’s follow these guidelines when sorting articles:

• First priority: Domestic A&D, ranked by size

• Next: Domestic M&A

• Then: US companies doing international deals (like

Noble’s Tamar)

• Then: Others (Cabot’s Lackawanna)

• Then: Prices, rig count, completions, etc.

To paste the arrows with colors,

• FactSet

• Settings

• Presentation Linking and Formatting

• Import

• Colors

• Change Color Font

For the primary Commodities bullet points on oil and gas

prices, please start with “The near-term contract opened the

week at $___” and end that same bullet point with “The

near-term contract closed the week at $____, down(up)

$___, or ___%.” You don’t have to use exactly those words

as long as the opening and closing prices are included . For

example, you could write, “Opening the week at $45.21, the

near-term oil contract declined steadily based on …” – you

know, think like a journalist, be creative.

Opportunity to acquire ~37,206 net contiguous acres in the core of

the San Andres horizontal play in Northern Central Basin Platform

Operated average WI/NRI of 77%/58%

Approaching 50% HBP with minimal annual drilling

commitments

96% operated by production

Net production of ~8,100 boe/d (November 2018E)

80% oil, 13% NGL

100%+ ROR oil play in the highly coveted Permian Basin

Future drilling opportunities have reserve models of 385 to

700 Mboe (80% oil)

Position has largely been de-risked through active development by

Wishbone and offset operators

Extensive inventory of high return drilling remains with over 344

San Andres horizontal drilling locations

5,000’ laterals – 323 locations

7,500’ laterals – 21 locations

Controlled surface lands/water infrastructure creates high margins

and empowers the buyer to be a play consolidator

Integrated

Water

Infrastructure

Owned and operated SWD system and fresh water source wells keep operating expenses low and enhance well

economics

Water infrastructure generates additional income

Infrastructure provides flow assurance for disposal and source water

1,385 acres of owned surface acreage allows buyer to expand system

Ample existing disposal capacity of 178,000 bw/d with excess available for third-party or commercialization

Improved

Horizontal

San Andres

Performance

Highly oil-saturated, oil-wet, dolomite reservoir located in the core area of very active development in the horizontal San

Andres play

Over the last four years, operators have developed a significant understanding of the reservoir and operational

characteristics defining the play

Recent drilling activity has yielded improved well performance

Time to peak production is less than 60 days

Initial peak 30-day rates of 400-700 bo/d

Operators continue to commit significant capital to the play with multiple active drilling rigs and 54 horizontal San Andres

permits

Wishbone’s

Premier

Position

Contiguous leasehold, adjacent to the prolific Wasson and Brahaney fields offering the best combination of reservoir

quality, quantity, and oil saturations in the core of the horizontal San Andres play

Position has largely been de-risked through active development by Wishbone and offset operators

Most recent quarter (2Q18) annualized cash flow of $60 MM can easily support a one rig drilling program

Acreage is approaching 50% HBP with minimal annual drilling commitments

High

Return

Inventory

Extensive inventory of high return drilling remains with over 344 San Andres horizontal drilling locations

Well economics of greater than 100% ROR compete with other top Permian plays

Future drilling opportunities have reserve models of 385 to 700 Mboe (80% oil)

Spacing of 4 to 8 wells per section supported by volumetrics with a recovery factor of 12-15% of OOIP; further supported

by an independent Von Gonten report

Stacked potential in San Andres could add additional drilling locations

Successful step-out completion helps prove play continuity in northern area
