Operations and Production Summary

Actively Navigating Period of Volatile Gas Pricing 8

June Production: ~14,000 boe/d (21% Liquids)

Production Capability: ~19,000 boe/d (15% Liquids)

Current Activities: Drilling Cardium delineation well

Drilling two-well Spirit River Pad

• Production has been variable as Modern has shut in natural gas volumes in response to weak AECO prices caused by TCPL field work

• Wapiti plant maintenance has also limited production during June

• Accelerated Cardium program underway; comprised of both delineation and multi-well development locations

• Spirit River program underway with a liquids-rich, two-well pad

Red Rock Spirit River Update

Limited Gas Program for 2H ‘18; Drilling Locations with Resilient Economics

MRI 10” PipelineTo MRI Route Gas Plant

06-18 Pad:Spud early July ‘18

• 21 wells currently producing into MRI’s Route gas plant• Owned infrastructure (roads, pipe, water) keep DCTE costs down• Latest pad will be MRI’s longest laterals to date (up to 2.4km)

This presentation may contain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of applicable securities legislation, including estimates of future production,cash flows and reserves, business plans for drilling and exploration, the estimated amounts and timing of capital expenditures, the assumptions upon whichestimates are based and related sensitivity analyses, and other expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions or statements about future events orperformance (often, but not always, using words or phrases such as "expects" or "does not expect", "is expected", "anticipates" or "does not anticipate","plans", "estimated" or "intends", or stating that certain actions, events or results “may", "could", "would", "might" or "will" be taken, occur or be achieved).In particular, this presentation contains forward-looking statements pertaining, to the following: estimates of infrastructure processing capacity, well costs,payout and IRR estimates. Statements relating to "reserves" are deemed to be forward looking statements, as they involve the implied assessment, basedon certain estimates and assumptions, that the reserves described exist in the quantities predicted or estimated and that the reserves can be profitablyproduced in the future. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating crude oil and natural gas reserves and the future cash flow attributed tosuch reserves. The reserve and associated cash flows therefrom are based upon a number of variable factors and assumptions, such as historical productionfrom the properties, production rates, ultimate reserve recovery, timing and amount of capital expenditures, marketability of oil and natural gas, royaltyrates, the assumed effects of regulation by governmental agencies and future operating expenses, all of which may vary materially. Actual reserve valuesmay be greater than or less than the estimates provided herein. Unless otherwise noted, reserves referenced herein are given as at December 31, 2017.Also, estimates of reserves and future net revenue for individual properties may not reflect the same confidence level as estimates and future net revenuefor all properties due to the effect of aggregation. All forward-looking statements are based on Modern’s beliefs and assumptions based on informationavailable at the time the assumption was made. Modern believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable but noassurance can be given that these expectations will prove to be correct and such forward-looking statements included in this presentation should not beunduly relied upon. By their nature, such forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions, which could causeactual results or other expectations to differ materially from those anticipated, expressed or implied by such statements. Risk factors include: financial riskof marketing reserves at an acceptable price given market conditions; volatility in market prices for oil and natural gas; delays in business operations;pipeline restrictions; infrastructure construction schedule delays and cost overruns; blowouts; the risk of carrying out operations with minimalenvironmental impact; industry conditions including changes in laws and regulations including the adoption of new environmental laws and regulations andchanges in how they are interpreted and enforced; uncertainties associated with estimating oil and natural gas reserves; economic risk of finding andproducing reserves at a reasonable cost; increased competition for, among other things, capital, acquisitions of reserves and undeveloped lands;competition for and availability of qualified personnel or management; incorrect assessments of the value of acquisitions and exploration and developmentprograms; unexpected geological, technical, drilling, construction and processing problems; availability of insurance; fluctuations in foreign exchange andinterest rates; general economic, market and business conditions; uncertainties associated with regulatory approvals; uncertainty of government policychanges; uncertainties associated with credit facilities and counterparty credit risk; and changes in income tax laws, tax laws, crown royalty rates andincentive programs relating to the oil and gas industry. These risks and uncertainties could cause actual results or other expectations to differ materially fromthose anticipated, expressed or implied by such statements. The impact of any one risk, uncertainty or factor on a particular forward-looking statement isnot determinable with certainty as these are interdependent. Modern assumes no obligation to update forward-looking statements should circumstances ormanagement's estimates or opinions change. Certain information contained herein have been prepared by third-party sources. The information providedherein has not been independently audited or verified by the Company.
