financial condition of equity affiliates; the inability or failure of the companys joint-venture partners to fund their share of operations and development
activities; the potential failure to achieve expected net production from existing and future crude oil and natural gas development projects; potential
delays in the development, construction or start-up of planned projects; the potential disruption or interruption of the companys net production or
manufacturing facilities or delivery/transportation networks due to war, accidents, political events, civil unrest, severe weather or crude oil production
quotas that might be imposed by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries; the potential liability for remedial actions or assessments under
existing or future environmental regulations and litigation; significant investment or product changes under existing or future environmental statutes,
regulations and litigation; the potential liability resulting from other pending or future litigation; the companys future acquisition or disposition of assets
and gains and losses from asset dispositions or impairments; government-mandated sales, divestitures, recapitalizations, industry-specific taxes,
changes in fiscal terms or restrictions on scope of company operations; foreign currency movements compared with the U.S. dollar; the effects of

heading Risk Factors on pages 29 through 31 of the companys 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In addition, such statements could be affected by
general domestic and international economic and political conditions. Other unpredictable or unknown factors not discussed in this presentation could
also have material adverse effects on forward-looking statements.
