Overview of Original July 2015 Strategic Acquisition of a Deep Cut Gas Processing Facility In July 2015, Tidewater closed the acquisition of a 63% operated working interest in a deep

cut gas processing facility (BRC) in the West Pembina region of Alberta, including related pipelines for $180 MM

The West Pembina region is a prolific producing multi-zone area of the Deep Basin

Though gas production in the area has historically come primarily from the Cardium, year-over-year growth of 11% has largely come from Mannville plays such as the Spirit River (Notikewin, Fahler and Wilrich) and the Lower Mannville (Ellerslie)

12

Acquisition Overview 185 MMcf/d gas processing facility and

ownership and/or access to 400 kilometers of associated gathering pipeline

One of the largest processing facilities in the Pembina area with current throughput of ~140 MMcf/d (100% from third party producer customers post acquisition)

EBITDA of ~C$28 MM1 with enhancement potential through optimization and growth

Acquisition at 6.5x EBITDA based on ~C$28 MM1 of EBITDA

70% of facility EBITDA contracted under take-or-pay contracts ranging from 3 to 10 years backed by credible counterparties / producers

“Deep-cut” gas processing capability for both sweet and sour throughput, enabling producers to realize a higher margin on their production via NGL extraction

When a Misrepresentation is contained in an offering memorandum, no person or company is liable: (a) if the person or company proves that the purchaser had knowledge of the Misrepresentation; (b) other than with respect to the issuer, if the person or company proves: (i) that the offering memorandum was sent to the purchaser without the person's or company's knowledge or consent, and (ii) that, after becoming aware that it was sent, the person or company promptly gave reasonable notice to the issuer that it was sent without the person's or company's knowledge and consent; (c) other than with respect to the issuer, if the person or company proves that, after becoming aware of the Misrepresentation, the person or company withdrew the person's or company's consent to the offering memorandum and gave reasonable notice to the issuer of the withdrawal and the reason for it; (d) other than with respect to the issuer, if, with respect to any part of the offering memorandum purporting to be made on the authority of an expert or to be a copy of, or an extract from, an expert's report, opinion or statement, the person or company proves that the person or company did not have any reasonable grounds to believe and did not believe that: (i) there had been a Misrepresentation; or (ii) the relevant part of the offering memorandum: (A) did not fairly represent the expert's report, opinion or statement, or (B) was not a fair copy of, or an extract from, the expert's report, opinion or statement; or (e) other than with respect to the issuer, with respect to any part of the offering memorandum not purporting to be made on an expert's authority and not purporting to be a copy of, or an extract from, an expert's report, opinion or statement, unless the person or company: (i) did not conduct an investigation sufficient to provide reasonable grounds for a belief that there had been no Misrepresentation; or (ii) believed there had been a Misrepresentation.

Such rights of rescission and damages are subject to certain limitations including the following: (a) in an action for damages, a defendant is not liable for all or any part of the damages that it proves do not represent the depreciation in value of the securities as a result of the Misrepresentation; and (b) the amount recoverable shall not exceed the price at which the securities were offered under the offering memorandum.

No action may be commenced to enforce a right: (a) in the case of an action for rescission, more than180 days after the day of the transaction that gave rise to the cause of action; or (b) in any other case, more than the earlier of (i) 180 days after the day that the plaintiff first had knowledge of the facts giving rise to the cause of action, or (ii) two years after the day of the transaction that gave rise to the cause of action.

A purchaser resident in Manitoba should refer to the provisions of the Manitoba Act and its regulations for particulars of the rights and defences discussed above and consult with a lawyer. The rights discussed above are in addition to and without derogation from any other right or remedy which a purchaser might have at law.
