Positive production Sales news

update and information regarding Production Sales.
President is pleased to report the following positive production sales news:
· The first material sales of oil from Louisiana for many months
are taking place with one barge load planned of between 5000-5500 barrels of
oil expected shipped this week with proceeds received as usual 20 days from
the end of the month. The price of Louisiana crude as well as that of gas
remain robust. With low opex and the continued use of ample tax losses,

Louisiana operations;

in Argentina to export approximately 19,000 barrels of oil being part of its
Argentine production this month at or around international prices;
· Long-awaited signals have been communicated to the market from
the Argentine national oil production company YPF as well as from the
Government that after many months domestic oil prices in Argentina will start
to increase from April with already an announcement on Monday that prices at
the pump will increase by 10%. President expects more of a gradual increase
reducing the material gap to world pricing. As such the progressive step by
step signs are welcomed and will have a positive effect.
President looks forward to the furture beneficial impact of these
developments.
Peter Levine, Chairman, commented:
"In Argentina, positive steps to raise in effect the net proceeds of our crude
is welcome as is further export of our product

contributions to Group."
