About the Entrerrios Block

All information in this Press Release relating to the assets to be acquired from the Vendor is based upon information provided to the Corporation by the Vendor. Management of Tilting Capital has not yet independently reviewed this disclosure nor has Tilting Capital hired any third party consultants or contractors to verify such information.

The Entrerrios Block assets comprise the Vendor's various working interests in 14,920 acres of lands in Colombia on which there are currently three producing oil wells and one abandoned well. Current net production is 184 barrels per day of heavy oil.

A summary of the Vendors' share of reserves and future net revenue for the Entrerrios Block from a report dated as of June 30, 2012 prepared by DeGolyer and MacNaughton Canada Limited, independent qualified reserves evaluators, (the "DeGolyer and MacNaughton Report") is presented below. The DeGolyer and MacNaughton Report was prepared in accordance with National Instrument 51-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Oil and Gas Activities ("NI 51-101"). The estimated net present values do not represent a fair market value.

⁽¹⁾ Possible reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than probable reserves. There is a 10% probability that the quantities actually recovered will equal or exceed the sum of proved plus probable plus possible reserves.

The following is the price deck table used in preparation of the DeGolyer and MacNaughton Report. There was no use of CAPEX in the evaluation of the Entrerrios Block by DeGolyer and MacNaughton. WTI oil price forecast was used for the Entrerrios Block. Operating expenses and operating-expense forecasts have been determined by DeGolyer and MacNaughton based on information provided by the Vendor, public information available on the analog field, Rubiales, and public information on operations of similar projects. In certain situations, future expenses, either higher or lower than current expenses, may have been used because of anticipated changes in operating conditions. Escalation has been applied to operating expenses to account for inflation. The Vendor's obligation for operating expenses is based on 100% in the Entrerrios Block. For the Entrerrios Block, there is a U.S. $0.30 per barrel abandonment liability obligation that is included into the variable cost of the evaluation. Future capital costs were estimated using current capital cost forecasts provided by the Vendor. Where necessary, these costs were scaled and adjusted to fit the scenario being evaluated. Escalation has been applied to capital costs to account for inflation. There is no capital cost for the Entrerrios Block at this time, but the Vendors' obligation is 100%. There is an 8% royalty for the Entrerrios Block. This royalty is a function of the forecast WTI price. At the request of the Vendor, Colombian corporation taxes were assessed on a consolidated basis taking into account the tax basis of the properties as of June 30, 2012, and additional taxes were assessed for each property that is included in the DeGolyer and MacNaughton Report separately. The Colombian corporate income tax is 33%. The depreciation of 30% for development, drilling and completion costs, 25% for gathering system and 20% for surface facility were applied to the assessment of the Entrerrios Block
