UNX Management Information Circular dated April 1st, 2011
UNX has entered into an agreement pursuant to which HRT will acquire, subject to certain conditions, all UNX shares by way of
a plan of arrangement
Pursuant to the agreement, UNX shares will be paid for with Global Depositary Shares representing HRT shares at an effective
pre-tax exchange ratio of 0.005579 of an HRT share per UNX share (approximately 0.005495 of an HRT share net of applicable
Brazilian Taxes).

emptive rights held by existing HRT shareholders to maintain their pro rata ownership position in HRT
Certain existing HRT shareholders have committed to assign their pre-emptive rights in favour of current UNX shareholders to
facilitate the transaction

Resources Disclaimer
The prospective resources estimates for UNX contained in this presentation have been prepared in accordance with Canadian
National Instrument 51-101 based on a report of D&M dated effective January 31, 2011. The D&M prospective resources report of
UNX is available on UNX's website at www.unxenergy.com and is filed on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. Readers should refer to
the prospective resources report of UNX in its entirety as it details the process for determining the prospective resources
estimates, the assumptions underpinning the modeling, and defines all of the technical terms used. The prospective resources
estimates of UNX described in the report and in this presentation are “undiscovered resources” as defined in the Canadian Oil
and Gas Evaluation (“COGE”) Handbook. Undiscovered resources are defined as those quantities of oil and gas estimates on a
given date to be contained in accumulations yet to be discovered. The estimate of the potentially recoverable portions of
undiscovered resources are classified as prospective resources. Prospective resources are defined as those quantities of oil and
gas estimated on a given date to be potentially recoverable from undiscovered accumulations. There is no certainty that any
portion of these resources will be discovered. If discovered, there is no certainty that it will be commercially viable to produce any
portion of the resources.
The prospective resources estimates for HRT contained in this presentation have been prepared in accordance with Canadian
National Instrument 51-101 based on a report of D&M dated effective August 31, 2010. The prospective resources estimates of
HRT described in the report and in this presentation are “undiscovered resources” as defined in the Canadian Oil and Gas
Evaluation (“COGE”) Handbook. Undiscovered resources are defined as those quantities of oil and gas estimates on a given date
to be contained in accumulations yet to be discovered. The estimate of the potentially recoverable portions of undiscovered

resources will be discovered. If discovered, there is no certainty that it will be commercially viable to produce any portion of the
resources.
The term “BOE” as used herein may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A BOE conversion ratio of approximately 6
Mcf:1 bbl is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a
value equivalency at the wellhead.
