3 Piceance Energy Executive Summary • Piceance Energy, LLC was formed in September 2012 through a combination of Laramie Energy II’s assets with Delta Petroleum’s Piceance Basin assets via the restructuring of Delta • Laramie’s management team has a proven track record of Piceance Basin expertise – Drilled 300+ wells with a 99% success rate – Formerly founded Laramie Energy I, which sold its assets in the Piceance Basin to Plains Exploration • Approximately 80% gas and 20% liquids • Attractive land position provides flexibility with minimal lease expiries over next 5-years • Favorable location in Western United States with access to growing West Coast market • Over 3,500 undeveloped Williams Fork locations provide compelling returns at today’s prices and significant option value • Over 1,700 undeveloped Mancos locations provide significant upside from emerging trend • Substantial improvement in economics over past 3-5 years based on: – Reduction in drilling & completion costs associated with pad drilling, water handling infrastructure and service cost reductions – Improved EURs based on larger slick water fracs – Improved price realizations out of Western US


 
4 Investment Summary • In order to pursue a staggered, 3 rig program over the next 18 months Piceance Energy is raising $75 million in fresh equity capital • Existing investors as well as one new investor are contributing additional capital • Par is slightly increasing its ownership stake in the entity up to 34% • Post-money equity valuation of $373 million • Drilling plan allows company to grow production and further demonstrate improvements in economics while operating in full development mode • Combination of equity infusion and projected expansion in company borrowing base allows for a multi-year $400 + million drilling program • 2015 capital plan provides for significant year over year increase in production expected to grow between 22 – 33% to exit range of 55.0 – 59.9 MMCFE/D Additional Investment Summary 2015 Capital Plan & Production Objective Investor Incremental Capital Committed Pre- Investment Ownership Pro Forma Ownership Existing Laramie Investors 22,470,778$ 66.7% 59.3% New Investor 25,000,000$ 0.0% 6.7% Par Petroleum 27,529,222$ 33.3% 34.0% Total 75,000,000$ 100.0% 100.0% 2015 Capital Plan Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Total Rig 1 Drill & Complete ($s in illions) 11.4$ 15.3$ 19.0$ 22.5$ 68.2$ 2014 Exit Production (MMCFE/D) 45.0 2015 Exit Production Ra g (MMCFE/D) Low - High (MMCFE/D) 55.0 ─ 59.9 Growth % Range 22% ─ 33%


 
5 • The economics of developing natural gas in the Piceance Basin have significantly improved over the past five years: – Basis differentials have decreased significantly due to increased interstate pipeline capacity going west – Multi-stage large volume slick water fracs have increased EURs by over 50% with the opportunity for further improvements • Recent drilling and completion developments offer further improvements: – Improving drilling efficiencies with most recent wells drilled in 5 days vs. history of 10+ days – Further improvements on frac design under evaluation – Multi-well continuous pad drilling of both directional and horizontal wells significantly lowers F&D costs – Water infrastructure for freshwater, flowback and disposal lower overall water costs in a development drilling program Improving Economics in the Piceance Basin Improvements in Drilling & Completion Costs Pro forma D&C costs down nearly 33% from historical costs ($s i millio s) Historical Costs Leading Edge Cost Range - Post Water Facilities Leading Edge Cost Range With Service Cost Reductions Pre-Water Facility Post-Water Facility High-End Low-End High-End Low-End Drill & Case 0.75$ 0.75$ 0.60$ 0.50$ 0.54$ 0.45$ Complete 1.05$ 0.85$ 0.85$ 0.85$ 0.76$ 0.76$ Total 1.80$ 1.60$ 1.45$ 1.35$ 1.30$ 1.21$
