Basis of preparation
The payments disclosed, which are on a cash basis in U.S Dollars, are based on
where the obligation for the payment arose (i.e. at a project or corporate
level). Where a payment or a series of related payments do not exceed
£86,000, they are not required to be disclosed under the UK Regulations,
however this has been disclosed in aggregate at a corporate level for clarity
over obligations.
All of the payments disclosed in accordance with the Directive have been made
to National Governments of Alberta, Colombia and Ecuador, either directly or
through a Ministry or Department of the National Government and to Local
Community Councils or municipalities in Canada, Colombia and Ecuador.

or capital gains. Income taxes are usually reflected in corporate income tax
returns. The cash payment of income taxes occurs in the year in which the tax
has arisen or up to one year later. Income taxes also include any cash tax
rebates received from the Government or revenue authority during the year and
excludes fines and penalties.

for the extraction of oil or gas The terms of the royalties are described
