Forward Looking Statements and
Resource Disclosure
Forward Looking Statements - This presentation contains certain forward-looking statements. All statements,
other than statements of historical fact, included herein, including without limitation, statements regarding
potential exploration results, hydrocarbons, resources and reserves, drilling plans, and the future plans and
objectives of CGX Energy Inc. ( “ CGX ” ) are forward-looking statements that involve various risks and
uncertainties. There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate and actual results and
future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. With respect to forward-looking
statements contained in this presentation, CGX has made assumptions regarding, among other things:
commodity prices and royalty regimes; availability of skilled labour; timing and amount of capital expenditures;
future exchange rates; the price of petroleum; the impact of increasing competition; conditions in general
economic and financial markets; access to capital; availability of drilling and related equipment; effects of
regulation by governmental agencies; royalty rates and future operating costs. Important factors that could
cause actual results to differ materially from CGX's expectations are disclosed elsewhere in documents that are
available to the public at www.sedar.com, including under “Risk Factors” in CGX’s prospectus with respect to the
offering described herein.
Resource Disclosure - The independent resource estimates with respect to CGX's Corentyne PPL have been
prepared by Gustavson Associates LLC in accordance with NI 51-101 in a report dated March 3, 2010 with an
effective date as of February 1, 2010. Prospective resources are those quantities of oil and gas estimated to be
potentially recoverable from undiscovered accumulations. If discovered, there is no certainty that it will be
commercially viable to produce any portion of the prospective resources. However, there is no certainty that the
prospective resources will be discovered. For further information about the prospective resource estimates
contained herein see CGX's annual information form dated May 7, 2010 which is available to the public at
www.sedar.com. Certain information contained herein is considered "analogous information" as defined NI 51101 such as the estimate of original oil in place with respect to the Tambaredjo and Calcutta fields onshore in
Suriname. Such analogous information has not been prepared in accordance with NI 51-101 and the Canadian
Oil and Gas Evaluation Handbook and CGX is unable to confirm whether such estimates have been prepared by a
qualified reserves evaluator. The information has been provided to show that the Guyana Suriname basin in
which CGX has an interest has a proven hydrocarbon system.
