Investment Caution

Individual statements appearing in Headwater’s securities filings are intended to be read in conjunction with and in the context of the complete documents in which they appear, including any documents incorporated therein by reference thereto, rather than as stand-alone statements. Further, these documents are not intended to be read in conjunction with any other material, including the content of the Headwater Website.

Forward Looking Statements

The Headwater Website contains certain forward-looking statements and forward-looking information (collectively referred to herein as “forward-looking statements”) within the meaning of Canadian securities laws. All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking information typically contains statements with words such as “anticipate”, “believe”, “plan”, “continuous”, “estimate”, “expect”, “may”, “will”, “project”, “should”, “could” or similar words suggesting future outcomes. In particular, forward-looking statements include statements regarding: Headwater’s business plans and strategies; capital budget; cash flow from operations; capital expenditure programs; exploration and development plans; the ability to find a joint venture partner for Headwater’s prospects; plans to update resources reports; timing to secure regulatory approvals; government support of exploration and development activities; operating expenses; the quantity of natural gas, oil and natural gas liquids reserves and resources; net present values of future net revenues from reserves; development costs; production; tax pools; timing of taxation; abandonment and reclamation costs; market prices and premiums; projections of costs; supply and demand for natural gas; expectations regarding the ability to raise capital and to continually add to reserves through acquisitions, exploration and development; the renewal and extension of licenses; and treatment under governmental regulatory regimes. Statements relating to “reserves” and “resources” are forward-looking statements, as they involve the implied assessment, based on certain estimates and assumptions that the reserves and resources described, as applicable, exist in the quantities predicted or estimated and can profitably be produced in the future.

Undue reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements, which are inherently uncertain, are based on estimates and assumptions, and are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties (both general and specific) that contribute to the possibility that the future events or circumstances contemplated by the forward-looking statements will not occur. There can be no assurance that the plans, intentions or expectations upon which forward-looking statements are based will in fact be realized. Actual results will differ, and the difference may be material and adverse to Headwater and its shareholders.

Forward-looking statements are based on the Corporation’s current beliefs as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, the Corporation concerning, among other items, anticipated financial performance, business prospects, strategies, regulatory developments, future natural gas and oil commodity prices, exchange rates, future natural gas production levels, the ability to obtain equipment in a timely manner to carry out development activities, the ability to market natural gas successfully to current and new customers, the impact of increasing competition, the ability to obtain financing on acceptable terms, the ability to add production and reserves through development and exploration activities, and the terms of agreements with third parties such as the Headwater’s forward sales contracts, transportation contracts and other assumptions described from time to time in the reports filed by Headwater with Canadian Securities regarding authorities. Although management considers these assumptions to be reasonable based on information currently available to it, they may prove to be incorrect.

By their very nature, forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties (both general and specific) and risks that forward-looking statements will not be achieved. These factors include, but are not limited to, risks associated with oil and gas exploration, substantial capital requirements and financing, volatility of natural gas and oil prices, government regulation, environmental, hydraulic fracturing, third party risk, dependence on key personnel, co-existence with mining operations, availability of drilling equipment and access, risks may not be insurable, variations in exchange rates, expiration of licenses and leases, reserves and resources estimates, development and/or acquisition of oil and natural gas properties, trading of common shares, seasonality, competition, management of growth, conflicts of interest, issuance of debt, title to properties and hedging, and such other risks or factors described from time to time in the reports filed by Headwater with the Canadian securities regulatory authorities. Headwater cautions that the foregoing list of risks and uncertainties is not exhaustive. Additional information on these and other factors which could affect Headwater’s operations or financial results are included in Headwater’s most recent Annual Information Form, Annual Financial Statements and Annual Management’s Discussion and Analysis and certain other filings made with applicable Canadian SECURITIES regulatory authorities. You can access the Annual Information Form, the Annual Financial Statements and the Annual Management’s Discussion and Analysis Report from the Headwater Website. In addition, information is available in Headwater’s other reports on file with applicable Canadian securities regulatory authorities.

Forward-looking information is based on the estimates and opinions of Headwater’s management at the time the statements are made in light of, and generally consistent with, its historical experience and its perception of historical trends, as well as certain expectations, generally consistent with, and informed by, its past experience, all of which are subject to the risk factors identified above. Headwater assumes no obligation to update forward-looking information should circumstances or management’s estimates or opinions change, except as required by applicable law.
