Forward-looking Statements
This presentation contains various forward-looking statements and information that are based on
managements
current
expectations
and
assumptions
about
future
events.
Forward-looking
statements
are
generally
accompanied
by
words
such
as
estimate,
project,
predict,
expect,
anticipate,
plan,
intend,
seek,
will,
should,
goal
and other words that convey the
uncertainty of future events and outcomes. Forward-looking information includes, among other
matters, statements regarding the Companys anticipated growth, quality of assets, rig utilization rate,
capital
spending
by
oil
and
gas
companies,
production
rates,
the
Company's
growth
strategy,
and
the
Company's international operations.  Although the Company believes that the expectations and
assumptions reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance
that such expectations and assumptions will prove to have been correct. Such statements are subject
to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including, among others: general and regional
economic conditions and industry trends; the continued strength of the contract land drilling industry
in the geographic areas where the Company operates; decisions about onshore exploration and
development projects to be made by oil and gas companies; the highly competitive nature of the
contract land drilling business; the Companys future financial performance, including availability,
terms and deployment of capital; the continued availability of qualified personnel; changes in
governmental regulations, including those relating to the environment; the political, economic and
other uncertainties encountered in the Company's international operations and other risks,
contingencies and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond
our
control.
Should
one
or
more
of
these
risks,
contingencies
or
uncertainties
materialize,
or
should
underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those expected. 
Many of these factors have been discussed in more detail in the Company's annual report on Form 10-
K
for
the
fiscal
year
ended
December
31,
2011.
Unpredictable
or
unknown
factors
that
the
Company
has not discussed in this presentation or in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission
could also have material adverse effects on actual results of matters that are the subject of the
forward-looking statements.  All forward-looking statements speak only as the date on which they are
made and the Company undertakes no duty to update or revise any forward-looking statements. We
advise our shareholders to use caution and common sense when considering our forward-looking
statements.

Appendix

Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net Income
We define Adjusted EBITDA as earnings (loss) before interest income (expense), taxes, depreciation, amortization, impairments, and the
Colombian
Net
Equity
Tax.
Although
not
prescribed
under
GAAP,
we
believe
the
presentation
of
Adjusted
EBITDA
is
relevant
and
useful
because it helps our investors understand our operating performance and makes it easier to compare our results with those of other
companies that have different financing, capital or tax structures. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation from or as a
substitute
for
net
earnings
(loss)
as
an
indication
of
operating
performance
or
cash
flows
from
operating
activities
or
as
a
measure
of
liquidity. A reconciliation of net earnings (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA is included in the table below. Adjusted EBITDA, as we calculate it,
may not be comparable to EBITDA measures reported by other companies. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA does not represent funds
available for discretionary use.
