Conclusions/Investment Case

• WTE access to portfolio of funded drilling outcomes in Guyana-Suriname Basin - over compressed timeframe

• Stabroek Block has yielded Avg. discovery sizes to date >500 MMBOE; 89% exploration success rate

• Commencement of initial drilling campaign at adjacent Kaieteur & Canje Blocks anticipated August 2020.

• WTE exposure to multiple ExxonMobil operated, Upper Cretaceous, wells over next 12 months – timetable subject to COVID-19 disruptions

• Kaieteur Block – First well (Tanager-1) targeting 256 MMbbls; POSg 72%1

• Canje Block – First well (Bulletwood-1) targeting >500 MMBO Liza look alike; with possible second well targeting billion barrel-class basin floor turbidite fan2

• ‘Advantaged barrels’ with low breakeven costs (Liza Phase II - $25/bbl ) offers potential to sustain offshore Guyana as investment growth area
