Barrels of Oil Equivalent
Barrels of oil equivalent (boe) is calculated using the conversion factor of 6 Mcf (thousand cubic feet) of natural gas being equivalent to one barrel of oil. Boes may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation.
A boe conversion ratio of 6 Mcf:1 bbl (barrel) is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.
Analogous Information
Certain information in this document may constitute "analogous information" as defined in National Instrument 51-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Oil and Gas Activities ("NI 51-101"), including, but not
limited to, the reservoir data and economics information relating to the areas in geographical proximity to prospective exploratory lands to be held by Mountainview. Such information has been obtained from
government sources, regulatory agencies or other industry participants. Management of Mountainview believes the information is relevant as it helps to define the reservoir characteristics in which
Mountainview may hold an interest. Such information includes resource estimates using categories such as Original Oil-In-Place which are not derived from the Canadian Oil and Gas Evaluation Handbook
("COGE Handbook") and have therefore not been prepared in accordance with NI 51-101. Mountainview is also unable to confirm that the analogous information was prepared by a qualified reserves evaluator
or auditor. Such information is not an estimate of the resources attributable to lands held or to be held by Mountainview and there is no certainty that the reservoir data and economics information for the lands
held or to be held by Mountainview will be similar to the information presented herein. The reader is cautioned that the data relied upon by Mountainview may be in error and/or may not be analogous to such
lands to be held by Mountainview.

Saskatchewan
Section 138 of The Securities Act, 1988 (Saskatchewan), as amended (the "Saskatchewan Act") provides that where an offering memorandum or any amendment to it is sent
or delivered to a purchaser and it contains a misrepresentation (as defined in the Saskatchewan Act), a purchaser who purchases a security covered by the offering memorandum
or any amendment to it is deemed to have relied upon that misrepresentation, if it was a misrepresentation at the time of purchase, and has a right of action for rescission
against the issuer or a selling security holder on whose behalf the distribution is made or has a right of action for damages against:
the issuer or a selling security holder on whose behalf the distribution is made;
a) every promoter and director of the issuer or the selling security holder, as the case may be, at the time the offering memorandum or any amendment to it was sent or delivered;
b) every person or corporation whose consent has been filed respecting the offering, but only with respect to reports, opinions or statements that have been made by them;
c) every person who or corporation that, in addition to the persons or companies mentioned in (a) to (c) above, signed the offering memorandum or the amendment to the offering
memorandum; and
d) every person who or corporation that sells securities on behalf of the issuer or selling security holder under the offering memorandum or amendment to the offering memorandum.
Such rights of rescission and damages are subject to certain limitations including the following:
a) if the purchaser elects to exercise its right of rescission against the issuer or selling security holder, it shall have no right of action for damages against that party;
b) in an action for damages, a defendant will not be liable for all or any portion of the damages that he, she or it proves do not represent the depreciation in value of the securities
resulting from the misrepresentation relied on;
c) no person or corporation, other than the issuer or selling security holder, will be liable for any part of the offering memorandum or any amendment to it purporting to be made on
the person’s or corporation’s own authority as an expert or purporting to be a copy of or an extract from the person’s or corporation’s own report, opinion or statement as an
expert, unless the person or corporation failed to conduct a reasonable investigation sufficient to provide reasonable grounds for a belief that there had been no misrepresentation
or believed there had been a misrepresentation.
d) in no case shall the amount recoverable exceed the price at which the securities were offered; and
e) no person or corporation is liable in an action for rescission or damages if that person or corporation proves that the purchaser purchased the securities with knowledge of the
misrepresentation.

a) the offering memorandum or any amendment to it was sent or delivered without the person’s or corporation’s knowledge or consent and that, on becoming aware of it being sent
or delivered, that person or corporation immediately gave reasonable general notice that it was so sent or delivered; or

from, a report, an opinion or a statement of an expert, that person or corporation had no reasonable grounds to believe and did not believe that there had been a
misrepresentation, the part of the offering memorandum or any amendment to it did not fairly represent the report, opinion or statement of the expert, or was not a fair copy of,

29. Purchasers' Rights of Action (continued)
Saskatchewan (continued)
Not all defences upon which we or others may rely are described herein. Please refer to the full text of the Saskatchewan Act for a complete listing.
Similar rights of action for damages and rescission are provided in section 138.1 of the Saskatchewan Act in respect of a misrepresentation in advertising and sales literature
disseminated in connection with an offering of securities.
Section 138.2 of the Saskatchewan Act also provides that where an individual makes a verbal statement to a prospective purchaser that contains a misrepresentation relating to
the security purchased and the verbal statement is made either before or contemporaneously with the purchase of the security, the purchaser is deemed to have relied on the
misrepresentation, if it was a misrepresentation at the time of purchase, and has a right of action for damages against the individual who made the verbal statement.
Section 141(1) of the Saskatchewan Act provides a purchaser with the right to void the purchase agreement and to recover all money and other consideration paid by the
purchaser for the securities if the securities are purchased from a vendor who is trading in Saskatchewan in contravention of the Saskatchewan Act, the regulations to the
Saskatchewan Act or a decision of the Saskatchewan Financial Services Commission.
Section 141(2) of the Saskatchewan Act also provides a right of action for rescission or damages to a purchaser of securities to whom an offering memorandum or any
amendment to it was not sent or delivered prior to or at the same time as the purchaser enters into an agreement to purchase the securities, as required by Section 80.1 of the
Saskatchewan Act.
The rights of action for damages or rescission under the Saskatchewan Act are in addition to and do not derogate from any other right which a purchaser may have at law.
Section 147 of the Saskatchewan Act provides that no action shall be commenced to enforce any of the foregoing rights more than:
a) in the case of an action for rescission, 180 days after the date of the transaction that gave rise to the cause of action; or
b) in the case of any other action, other than an action for rescission, the earlier of:
i. one year after the plaintiff first had knowledge of the facts giving rise to the cause of action; or
ii. six years after the date of the transaction that gave rise to the cause of action.
The Saskatchewan Act also provides a purchaser who has received an amended offering memorandum delivered in accordance with subsection 80.1(3) of the Saskatchewan Act
has a right to withdraw from the agreement to purchase the securities by delivering a notice to the person who or corporation that is selling the securities, indicating the
purchaser’s intention not to be bound by the purchase agreement, provided such notice is delivered by the purchaser within two business days of receiving the amended
offering memorandum.

Ontario
Section 5.2 of Ontario Securities Commission Rule 45-501 provides that purchasers who have been delivered an offering memorandum in connection with a distribution of
securities in reliance upon the "accredited investor" prospectus exemption in Section 2.3 of NI 45-106 have the rights referred to in Section 130.1 of the Securities Act
(Ontario) (the "Ontario Act"). The Ontario Act provides such purchasers with a statutory right of action against the issuer of the securities for rescission or damages in the
event that the offering memorandum and any amendment to it contains a misrepresentation.
Where an offering memorandum is delivered to a purchaser and contains a misrepresentation, the purchaser, without regard to whether the purchaser relied on the
misrepresentation, will have a statutory right of action against the issuer for damages or for rescission; if the purchaser elects to exercise the right of rescission, the purchaser
will have no right of action for damages against the issuer. No such action shall be commenced more than, in the case of an action for rescission, 180 days after the date of
the transaction that gave rise to the cause of action, or, in the case of any action other than an action for rescission, the earlier of: (i) 180 days after the purchaser first had
knowledge of the facts giving rise to the cause of action, or (ii) three years after the date of the transaction that gave rise to the cause of action.
The Ontario Act provides a number of limitations and defences to such actions, including the following. (a) the issuer is not liable if it proves that the purchaser purchased the
securities with knowledge of the misrepresentation; (b) in an action for damages, the issuer shall not be liable for all or any portion of the damages that the issuer proves
does not represent the depreciation in value of the securities as a result of the misrepresentation relied upon; and (c)in no case shall the amount recoverable exceed the price
at which the securities were offered.
These rights are not available for a purchaser purchasing in reliance upon the “accredited investor” prospectus exemption in Section 2.3 of NI 45-106 that is: (a) a Canadian
financial institution, meaning either: (i) an association governed by the Cooperative Credit Associations Act (Canada) or a central cooperative credit society for which an order
has been made under section 473(1) of that Act; or (ii) a bank, loan corporation, trust corporation, trust corporation, insurance corporation, treasury branch, credit union,
caisse populaire, financial services corporation, or league that, in each case, is authorized by an enactment of Canada or a province or territory of Canada to carry on business
in Canada or a territory in Canada; (b) a Schedule III bank, meaning an authorized foreign bank named in Schedule III of the Bank Act (Canada); (c) the Business
