Reflects
the principal balance payable to Wells Fargo Foothill at December 31,
2007. Interest calculated on the Credit Facility is through
September 27, 2011 (the maturity date of the Credit Facility, which may be
extended to December 27, 2012 in the event the Convertible Notes are
entirely converted into equity, with no remaining cash payment obligations
or are refinanced with a maturity date not earlier than June 27,
2013).

(3)
|
We
have entered into swaps to hedge our exposure to natural gas price
fluctuations. As of December 31, 2007, fixed prices specified
by these swaps generally exceeded the market price, resulting in a current
unrealized gain of $1.76 million and long-term unrealized loss of $0.18
million. If market prices are higher than the contract
prices when the cash settlement amount is calculated, we are required to
pay the contract counterparties. While such payments generally
will be funded by higher prices received from the sale of our production,
timing differences between our receipt of sales from production and
payment due to counterparties can result in draws on our revolving Credit
Facility.
|

|
We
have entered firm transportation contracts with various pipelines for
various terms through 2013. Under these contracts, we are
obligated to transport minimum daily gas volumes, as calculated on a
monthly basis, or pay for any deficiencies at a specified
rate. We also have field gathering, compression and
transportation agreements that contain financial obligations requiring a
minimum level of fees through a fixed
period.

The
liability method to account for options granted to U.S. employees in
Canadian dollars. Under this method, we record a liability for
vested options equal to the value of such vested options
as calculated by the Black-Scholes model using the option
exercise price and the fair value per share of the common stock underlying
the option as of the measurement
date.
|
·
|
The
equity method to account for options granted to Canadian employees and
options granted to U.S. employees in U.S. dollars. We calculate
the expense under this method based on the Black-Scholes value of the
option at the date
of the grant. This expense is recorded in equal amounts
as the options vest; typically over two
years.

The
liability method to account for options granted to U.S. employees in
Canadian dollars. Under this method, we record a liability for
vested options equal to the value of such vested options
as calculated by the Black-Scholes model using the option
exercise price and the fair value per share of the common stock underlying
the option as of the measurement
date.

·
|
The
equity method to account for options granted to Canadian employees and
options granted to U.S. employees in U.S. dollars. We calculate
the expense under this method based on the Black-Scholes value of the
option at the date
of the grant. This expense is recorded in equal amounts
as the options vest; typically over two
years.
