Four wells were drilled by Exall in the Marten Mountain area from December 2010 through March 31, 2011. Two wells have been completed as oilwells and are producing at a combined rate of 430 BOEPD (310 BOEPD net) through the Company-owned Marten Mountain pipeline and facilities. Two wells were cased as potential oilwells. Completion operations on a well drilled in Q4 2010 were suspended due to a lack of completion cementing services available in Q1. Completion and drilling operations have been suspended in the area through spring break-up. It is anticipated that operations will recommence in mid-June due to the late date of the start of breakup.

Two 3D seismic programs planned by Exall in the Mitsue area were completed in Q1. The preliminary interpretation has indicated up to 14 potential drilling locations based on the seismic program. Two wells are in planning stages to be drilled in Q2-Q3 to test the validity of the interpretation. Pending results additional wells may be added to the current drilling program.

A waterflood enhanced recovery application has been submitted to the ERCB for the southerly sand trend. Four wells in the trend were included in the application which is to include three producers and one injection well, as well as a saline water source well.

Exall has also completed the bulk of facility upgrades planned for the first quarter of 2011. Treater and Vapour Recovery units have been installed in conjunction with the main battery site and are operational. The compressor installed in Q4 of last year is to be upgraded to handle additional gas associated with anticipated production increases through 2011. Electrification of the Company's facilities continues with anticipated completion in late May.

Additional land interests were acquired by Exall in the Mitsue area via Crown land sales and farmin through Q1of 2011. Exall now has an interest in 17,920 acres (13,220 acres net) in the greater Mitsue area. The Company has an inventory of 35-40 drilling locations in the greater Mitsue area. Plans are under way for the drilling of fourteen wells through the end of 2011 with six additional after freeze-up. Two drilling rigs are currently under contract to Exall including one through the winter 2011-12, which will facilitate the planned drilling program.

Total production for Exall is currently 1100 BOEPD. Two wells in the Marten Mountain B Sand trend are shut in to retire over-production. One well will come on in June and the other in July adding approximately 200 BOEPD net production under allowable and 750 BOEPD once waterflood approval is granted. Production is below projections due to the delay in attaining approval for higher production rates from the new water flood project as well as late breakup delaying completion and drilling operations in the Company's core area.

Exall is pleased to announce that Glen Kerr, Vice President of Operations has been appointed to the position of Chief Operating Officer, and Janet MacKenzie, Manager of Geological Operations has been appointed Vice President of Exploration. "The appointments reflect the contributions Glen and Janet have made to the growth of Exall and their expanding responsibilities as the Company continues on an aggressive growth plan into the future" commented Roger Dueck, recently appointed Chief Executive Officer of Exall.

For the purposes of calculating unit costs, natural gas has been converted to a barrel of oil equivalent (boe) using 6,000 cubic feet equal to one barrel (6:1), unless otherwise stated.
