Reader Advisories

Forward Looking Information and Forward Looking Statements

Certain statements contained in this corporate profile in respect of First Mountain Exploration Ltd. ("First Mountain) constitute forward-looking statements or information

(collectively "forward-looking statements") within the meaning of applicable securities legislation, including, but not limited to management's assessment of future plans and

operations including drilling plans, potential production levels, development plans, capital expenditures, and cash flow potential. Forward-looking statements are typically

identified by words such as "anticipate", "continue", "estimate", "expect", "forecast", "may", "will", "project", "could", "plan", "intend", "should", "believe", "outlook", "potential",

"target" and similar words suggesting future events or future performance or may be identified by reference to a future date. In addition, statements relating to "resources" are

deemed to be forward-looking statements as they involve the implied assessment, based on certain estimates and assumptions, that the resources described exist or may be

discovered in the quantities predicted or estimated.

With respect to forward-looking statements contained in this corporate profile, the Companies have made assumptions regarding, among other things: future capital expenditure

levels; future oil and natural gas prices; future oil and natural gas production levels; future exchange rates and interest rates; ability to obtain equipment and services in a timely

manner to carry out development activities; the impact of increasing competition; the ability to obtain financing on acceptable terms; and ability to add production and reserves

through exploration, development and exploitation activities. Although the Companies believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements contained in this

corporate profile, and the assumptions on which such forward-looking statements are made, are reasonable, there can be no assurance that such expectations will prove to be

correct. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements included in this corporate profile, as there can be no assurance that the plans,

intentions or expectations upon which the forward-looking statements are based will occur. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve numerous assumptions, known

and unknown risks and uncertainties that contribute to the possibility that the predictions, forecasts, projections and other forward-looking statements will not occur, which may

cause the Companies' actual performance and financial results in future periods to differ materially from any estimates or projections of future performance or results expressed or

implied by such forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, among other things, the ability of management to execute its business plan; general economic

and business conditions; the risks of the oil and natural gas industry, such as operational risks in exploring for, developing and producing crude oil and natural gas and market

demand; the possibility that government policies or laws may change or governmental approvals may be delayed or withheld; risks and uncertainties involving geology of oil and

natural gas deposits; the uncertainty of reserves estimates and reserves life; the ability of the Companies to add production and reserves through acquisition, development and

exploration activities; the Companies' ability to enter into or renew leases; potential delays or changes in plans with respect to exploration or development projects or capital

expenditures; the uncertainty of estimates and projections relating to production (including decline rates), costs and expenses; fluctuations in oil and natural gas prices, foreign

currency exchange rates and interest rates; risks inherent in the Companies' marketing operations, including credit risk; uncertainty in amounts and timing of royalty payments;

health, safety and environmental risks; risks associated with unexpected potential future law suits and regulatory actions against the Companies; and uncertainties as to the

availability and cost of financing. Readers are cautioned that the foregoing list is not exhaustive of all possible risks and uncertainties.

Any financial outlook or future oriented financial information in this corporate profile, as defined by applicable securities legislation, has been approved by management of the

respective Companies. Such financial outlook or future oriented financial information is provided for the purpose of providing information about management's current

expectations and plans relating to the future. Readers are cautioned that reliance on such information may not be appropriate for other purposes.

The forward-looking statements contained in this corporate profile speak only as of the date of this corporate profile. Except as expressly required by applicable securities laws,

the Companies do not undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

The forward-looking statements contained in this corporate profile are expressly qualified by this cautionary statement. The information contained in this corporate profile does

not purport to be all-inclusive or to contain all information that a prospective investor may require. Prospective investors are encouraged to conduct their own analysis and

reviews of the Companies, and of the information contained in this corporate profile. Without limitation, prospective investors should consider the advice of their financial, legal,

accounting, tax and other advisors and such other factors they consider appropriate in investigating and analyzing the Companies.

Prospective Resources Disclosure

This corporate presentation includes a "best" estimate of prospective resources in respect of First Mountain's 75.5 contiguous acres located in the Faust area of Alberta. The

Resource Estimate has been prepared by GLJ Petroleum Consultants Ltd., independent resource evaluators for First Mountain, in a report dated November , 2011 and effective

October 31, 2011 in accordance with National Instrument 51-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Oil and Gas Activities. "Prospective resources" are those quantities of petroleum

estimated, as of a given date, to be potentially recoverable from undiscovered accumulations by application of future development projects. Prospective resources have both an

associated chance of discovery and a chance of development. There is no certainty that any portion of the prospective resources will be discovered and, if discovered, there is no

certainty that it will be commercially viable to produce any portion of those (discovered) resources. The "best estimate" is considered to be the best estimate of the quantity that

will actually be recovered. In terms of prospective resources, it is equally likely that the actual quantities recovered will be greater or less than the best estimate. If probabilistic

methods are used, there should be at least a 50 percent probability that the quantity actually recovered will equal or exceed the best estimate. The estimates of resources for

individual properties may not reflect the same confidence level as estimates of resources for all properties, due to the effects of aggregation.

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.
