2. Expand oil processing and gas handling capacities in the Carnwood area; and
   
   
3. Participate in the proposed drilling of an additional 4 gross (1.1 net) non-operated wells.
   
   

The additional $20 million in capital expenditures will not have a material impact in 2014, and will mainly impact 2015 operations. The Company's guidance numbers, therefore, have not been adjusted for 2014.
