Advisory<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Non-IFRS Measures<\/u><\/em>: <\/em>Non-IFRS measures do not have any standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS and may not be comparable with the calculation of similar measures used by other entities.\u00a0 Non-IFRS measures should not be considered alternatives to, or more meaningful than, measures determined in accordance with IFRS as indicators of the Company\u2019s performance.\u00a0 This press release contains the terms \u201cadjusted funds flow from operations\u201d and “adjusted funds flow per share \u2013 operations” which should not be considered alternatives to, or more meaningful than, cash flow from operations and cash flow per share \u2013 operations as determined in accordance with IFRS as an indicator of the Company\u2019s performance.\u00a0 Management uses adjusted funds flow from operations to analyze operating performance and considers adjusted funds flow from operations to be a key measure as it demonstrates the Company\u2019s ability to generate cash necessary to fund future capital investment.\u00a0 Adjusted funds flow per share \u2013 operations is calculated using the basic and diluted weighted average number of shares for the period consistent with the calculations of earnings per share.\u00a0 For a reconciliation of adjusted funds flow from operations to cash flow from operations, which is the most directly comparable measure calculated in accordance with IFRS, see the Company’s MD&A.\u00a0 <\/em>This press release also contains other industry benchmarks and terms, including \u201coperating netbacks\u201d (calculated on a per unit basis as oil, natural gas and NGL revenues less export tax, royalties and operating costs), which is a non-IFRS measure.\u00a0 See “TDF Operating Netback” for the calculation of operating netback.\u00a0 Management believes this measure is a useful supplemental measure of the Company\u2019s profitability relative to commodity prices.\u00a0 Readers are cautioned, however, that operating netbacks should not be construed as an alternative to other terms such as net income as determined in accordance with IFRS as measures of performance.\u00a0 Crown Point\u2019s method of calculating this measure may differ from other companies, and accordingly, may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies.<\/em><\/p>\n

Abbreviations and BOE Presentation<\/u><\/em>: “3-D” means three dimensional, “API” means <\/em>American Petroleum Institute gravity, being an indication of the specific gravity of crude oil measured on the API gravity scale, <\/em>“bbls” means barrels, <\/em>“BOE” means barrels of oil equivalent, “km2<\/sup>” means square kilometres, \u201cmcf\u201d means thousand cubic feet, “mmcf” means millions cubic feet, “NGL” means natural gas liquids<\/em>.<\/em> All BOE conversions in this press release are derived by converting natural gas to oil in the ratio of six mcf of gas to one bbl of oil.\u00a0 BOE may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation.\u00a0 A BOE conversion ratio of six mcf of gas to one bbl of oil (6 mcf: 1 bbl) is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.\u00a0 Given that the value ratio based on the current price of crude oil as compared to natural gas in Argentina is significantly different from the energy equivalency conversion ratio of 6:1, utilizing a conversion on a 6:1 basis is misleading as an indication of value.<\/em><\/p>\n

Forward-looking Information<\/u><\/em>: <\/em>This document contains forward-looking information.\u00a0 This information relates to future events and the Company\u2019s future performance.\u00a0 All information and statements contained herein that are not clearly historical in nature constitute forward-looking information, and the words \u201cmay\u201d, \u201cwill\u201d, \u201cshould\u201d, \u201ccould\u201d, \u201cexpect\u201d, \u201cplan\u201d, \u201cintend\u201d, \u201canticipate\u201d, \u201cbelieve\u201d, \u201cestimate\u201d, \u201cpropose\u201d, \u201cpredict\u201d, \u201cpotential\u201d, \u201ccontinue\u201d, \u201caim\u201d, <\/em>“budget” <\/em>or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology are generally intended to identify forward-looking information.\u00a0 Such information represents the Company\u2019s internal projections, estimates, expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions, intentions or statements about future events or performance.\u00a0 This information involves known or unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking information.\u00a0 In\u00a0addition, this document may contain forward-looking information attributed to third party industry sources.\u00a0 Crown Point believes that the expectations reflected in this forward-looking information are reasonable; however, undue reliance should not be placed on this forward-looking information, as there can be no assurance that the plans, intentions or expectations upon which they are based will occur.

A number of risks and other factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking information contained in this document including, but not limited to, the following: the risks and other factors described under \u201cBusiness Risks and Uncertainties\u201d in our MD&A for the three month period ended March 31, 2019 and under \u201cRisk Factors\u201d in the Company\u2019s most recently filed Annual Information Form, which is available for viewing on SEDAR at <\/em>www.sedar.com<\/em><\/a>. In addition, note that information relating to reserves <\/em>and resources <\/em>is deemed to be forward-looking information, as it involves the implied assessment, based on certain estimates and assumptions that the reserves <\/em>and resources <\/em>described can be economically produced in the future. With respect to forward-looking information contained in this document, the Company has made assumptions regarding, among other things: <\/em>the impact of inflation rates in Argentina and the devaluation of the Argentine peso against the USD on the Company<\/em>; the impact of increasing competition; the general stability of the economic and political environment in which the Company operates, including operating under a consistent regulatory and legal framework in Argentina; future oil, natural gas and NGL prices (including the effects of governmental incentive programs thereon); the timely receipt of any required regulatory approvals; the ability of the Company to obtain qualified staff, equipment and services in a timely and cost efficient manner; drilling results; the costs of obtaining equipment and personnel to complete the Company\u2019s capital expenditure program; the ability of the operator of the projects which the Company has an interest in to operate the field in a safe, efficient and effective manner; the ability of the Company to obtain financing on acceptable terms when and if needed; the ability of the Company to service its debt repayments when required; field production rates and decline rates; the ability to replace and expand oil and natural gas reserves through acquisition, development and exploration activities; the timing and costs of pipeline, storage and facility construction and expansion and the ability of the Company to secure adequate product transportation; currency, exchange and interest rates; the regulatory framework regarding royalties, taxes and environmental matters in the jurisdictions in which the Company operates; and the ability of the Company to successfully market its oil and natural gas products.\u00a0 Management of Crown Point has included the above summary of assumptions and risks related to forward-looking information included in this document in order to provide investors with a more complete perspective on the Company\u2019s future operations.\u00a0 Readers are cautioned that this information may not be appropriate for other purposes. Readers are cautioned that the foregoing lists of factors are not exhaustive.\u00a0 The forward-looking information <\/em>contained in this document are expressly qualified by this cautionary statement. The forward-looking information contained herein is made as of the date of this document and the Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update publicly any such forward-looking information, whether as a result of new information, future events or results or otherwise, other than as required by applicable Canadian securities laws.<\/em><\/p>\n

Analogous Information:<\/u><\/em>\u00a0 Certain information contained herein may be considered “analogous information” as defined in National Instrument 51-101. In particular, this document discloses that the lower Tertiary and upper Cretaceous sandstones are oil productive immediately north of CLL. Such analogous information has not been prepared in accordance with National Instrument 51-101 and the Canadian Oil and Gas Evaluation Handbook and Crown Point is unable to confirm whether such information has been prepared by a qualified reserves evaluator. Such information is not intended to be a projection of future results. Such information is based on independent public data and public information received from other producers and Crown Point has no way of verifying the accuracy of such information. Such information has been presented to help demonstrate the basis for Crown Point’s business plans and strategies. There is no certainty that such results will be achieved by Crown Point and such information should not be construed as an estimate of future reserves or resources or future production levels.<\/em><\/p>\n

Well-Flow Test Results and Initial Production Rates:<\/u><\/em>\u00a0 <\/em>Any references in this document to well-flow test results, swab test rates and\/or initial production rates are useful in confirming the presence of hydrocarbons, however, such test results and rates are not determinative of the rates at which such wells will continue production and decline thereafter. While encouraging, readers are cautioned not to place reliance on such test results and rates in calculating the aggregate production for the Company. Well-flow test results, swab test rates and initial production rates may be estimated based on other third party estimates or limited data available at the time. Well-flow test result data should be considered to be preliminary until a pressure transient analysis and\/or well-test interpretation has been carried out. In all cases in this document, well-flow test results and initial production results are not necessarily indicative of long-term performance of the relevant well or fields or of ultimate recovery of hydrocarbons.<\/em><\/p>\n
