Forward-Looking Statement
This presentation includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this presentation that address activities, events or developments that Gulfport expects or anticipates will or may occur in the future, including statements relating to the proposed transactions, future capital expenditures (including the amount and nature thereof), business strategy and measures to implement strategy, competitive strength, goals, expansion and growth of Gulfport’s business and operations, plans, market conditions, references to future success, reference to intentions as to future matters and other such matters are forward-looking statements. These statements are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by Gulfport in light of its experience and its perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments as well as other factors it believes are appropriate in the circumstances. However, whether actual results and developments will conform with Gulfport’s expectations and predictions is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, general economic, market, business or weather conditions; the opportunities (or lack thereof) that may be presented to and pursued by Gulfport; competitive actions by other oil and gas companies; changes in laws or regulations; and other factors, many of which are beyond the control of Gulfport. Specifically, Gulfport cannot assure you that the proposed transactions described in this presentation will be consummated on the terms Gulfport currently contemplates, if at all. Information concerning these and other factors can be found in the company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K. Consequently, all of the forward-looking statements made in this presentation are qualified by these cautionary statements and there can be no assurances that the actual results or developments anticipated by Gulfport will be realized, or even if realized, that they will have the expected consequences to or effects on Gulfport, its business or operations. We have no intention, and disclaim any obligation, to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future results or otherwise.
Prior to 2010, the Securities and Exchange Commission generally permitted oil and gas companies, in their filings, to disclose only proved reserves that a company has demonstrated by actual production or conclusive formation tests to be economically and legally producible under existing economic and operating conditions. Beginning with year-end reserves for 2009, the SEC permits the optional disclosure of probable and possible reserves. We have elected not to disclose our probable and possible reserves in our filings with the SEC. We use the terms “unrisked resource potential,” “unrisked resource,” “contingent resource,” or “EUR,” or other descriptions of volumes of hydrocarbons to describe volumes of resources potentially recoverable through additional drilling or recovery techniques that the SEC’s guidelines prohibit us from including in filings with the SEC. “Unrisked resource potential,” “unrisked resource,” “contingent resource,” or “EUR,” do not reflect volumes that are demonstrated as being commercially or technically recoverable. Even if commercially or technically recoverable, a significant recovery factor would be applied to these volumes to determine estimates of volumes of proved reserves. Accordingly, these estimates are by their nature more speculative than estimates of proved reserves and accordingly are subject to substantially greater risk of being actually realized by the Company. The methodology for “unrisked resource potential,” “unrisked resource,” “contingent resource,” or “EUR,” may also be different than the methodology and guidelines used by the Society of Petroleum Engineers and is different from the SEC’s guidelines for estimating probable and possible reserves.

Niobrara—Acquisition Strategy
24,468 net acres focused near a number of structures on the uplift between the Piceance and Sandwash basins
75 to 150 MMBOE¹ of gross original oil in place per section
GPOR Leasehold Area
Significant oil in place in an area that historically has proven to be productive with the potential to unlock considerable resource by applying modern drilling and completion technology to increase recoveries
Historical recoveries per section have ranged from 0.01% to 1.1% and Gulfport internally estimates average recoveries to be 0.12%¹ using previous drilling and completion methods
A 1% increase in recoveries would increase gross recoverable resource by 0.75 to 1.5 MMBOE per section

Notes:
Probable reserves are defined in the Canadian Oil and Gas Evaluation Handbook (the “COGE Handbook”) as those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than proved reserves. It is equally likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will be greater or less than the sum of the estimated proved plus probable reserves.
Contingent Resources are defined in the COGE Handbook as those quantities of petroleum estimated, as of a given date, to be potentially recoverable from known accumulations using established technology or technology under development, but which are not currently considered to be commercially recoverable due to one or more contingencies.
Prospective Resources are defined in the COGE Handbook as those quantities of petroleum estimated, as of a given date, to be potentially recoverable from undiscovered accumulations by application of future development projects.
Best Estimate as defined in the COGE Handbook is considered to be the best estimate of the quantity that will actually be recovered from the accumulation. If probabilistic methods are used, this term is a measure of central tendency of the uncertainty distribution (P50).
Discovered Petroleum Initially-In-Place are defined in the COGE Handbook as that quantity of petroleum that is estimated, as of a given date, to be contained in known accumulations prior to production.
Undiscovered Petroleum Initially-In-Place are defined in the COGE Handbook as that quantity of petroleum that is estimated, on a given date, to be contained in accumulations yet to be discovered.
It should be noted that reserves, Contingent Resources and Prospective Resources involve different risks associated with achieving commerciality. There is no certainty that it will be commercially viable for Grizzly to produce any portion of the Contingent Resources. There is no certainty that any portion of Grizzly’s Prospective Resources will be discovered. If discovered, there is no certainty that it will be commercially viable to produce any portion of the Prospective Resources. Grizzly’s Prospective Resource estimates discussed in this press release have been risked for the chance of discovery but not for the chance of development and hence are considered by Grizzly as partially risked estimates.

Grizzly¹ Algar Lake SAGD Project
Grizzly has submitted its regulatory application for a 11,300 BOPD oil sands project at Algar Lake
– The project is expected to operate at an average capacity of 10,000 BOPD over a design life of 30 years
– Grizzly plans to develop Algar Lake utilizing a proven method of in-situ extraction called Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage (SAGD)
Development plan and capital requirements:
– The Stage 1 development of Grizzly’s Algar Lake Project contemplates two plant phases and ten well pairs on each of four well pads
– Upon approval, Grizzly intends to construct the first phase consisting of one modular central processing facility, ten well pairs on one well pad and associated roads and pipelines
– The second plant phase is expected to be developed two years subsequent to approval and include a second modular central processing facility and an additional ten well pairs and well pad
– The first two phases are estimated to carry a gross initial capital cost of ~$240 million and, in order to maintain consistent production, an additional pad will be required for each phase every five years at an estimated gross cost of ~$35 million
Why Develop Algar Lake First?
Low Geologic Risk – Will be developing the same type McMurray Channel sands as found in nearby JACOS & Connacher producing SAGD projects (Ave. Porosity: 33%, Ave Oil Saturation: 80%)
Proximity to Infrastructure – Nearby access to the Highway 63 road and pipeline corridor. Existing natural gas and electric transmission lines within the vicinity initial project area
Timeline: Grizzly expects regulatory approval within 12 to 18 months of application submission followed by a construction period of 18 months leading up to first production
