Forward-Looking Statements
All statements, other than statements of historical fact, included in this presentation are forward-looking
statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are
based upon current expectations and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions, which
are more fully described in Rosetta Resources Inc.'s Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on
Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These risks, uncertainties and assumptions
could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements.
Rosetta assumes no obligation and expressly disclaims any duty to update the information contained herein
except as required by law.
Cautionary Statement Concerning Resources
The United States Securities and Exchange Commission permits oil and gas companies, in their filings with the
SEC, to disclose only proved, probable and possible reserves that a company anticipates as of a given date to
be economically and legally producible by application of development projects to known accumulations. We
may use certain terms in this presentation, such as “Risked Project Inventory,” “Project Counts,” “Net Risked
Resources”, “Total Resources”, and “Unrisked Potential” that the SEC's guidelines strictly prohibit us from
including in filings with the SEC. These estimates are by their nature more speculative than estimates of
proved reserves and accordingly are subject to substantially greater risk of actually being realized.
