DisclaimersForward Looking Statements
Certain information included in this presentation constitutes forward-looking information under applicable securities legislation. Forward-looking information typically contains statements with words such as “anticipate”, “believe”, “expect”, “plan”, “intend”, “estimate”, “propose”,
“project” or similar words suggesting future outcomes or statements regarding an outlook. Forward-looking information in this presentation may include, but is not limited to, statements about: our corporate strategy, including a new frac strategy in Cardium; timing and level of
2020 capital expenditures; future acquisition and disposition opportunities, including tuck-in acquisitions in core areas; future production levels; 2020 netbacks and cash flows; 2020 exit debt, annual and exit production and unutilized liquidity on existing credit facilities; oil and
liquids weighting and changes thereto; development opportunities, including the expansion of the oil battery in Veteran; drilling locations; economics and payouts of our wells; corporate decline rate; future waterflood, land and seismic investments; and future commodity
prices and exchange rates. Statements relating to “reserves” are also deemed to be forward looking statements, as they involve the implied assessment, based on certain estimates and assumptions, that the reserves described exist in the quantities predicted or estimated
and that the reserves can be profitably produced in the future.
Forward-looking information is based on a number of factors and assumptions which have been used to develop such information but which may prove to be incorrect. In addition to other factors and assumptions which may be identified in this presentation, assumptions have
been made regarding and are implicit in, among other things, the success of future drilling, development and completion activities, the performance of existing wells, the performance of new wells, the performance of enhanced oil recovery projects, the availability and
performance of facilities and pipelines, the geological characteristics of Tamarack’s properties, the successful application of drilling, completion and seismic technology, prevailing weather and break-up conditions and access to our drilling locations, commodity prices, royalty
regimes and exchange rates, the application of regulatory and licensing requirements, the availability of capital, labour and services, our ability to complete planned capital expenditures within budgeted cost estimates, the ability to market our and gas successfully, our ability
to integrate assets and employees acquired through acquisitions, the creditworthiness of industry partners and our ability to acquire additional assets. Readers are cautioned that the foregoing list is not exhaustive of all factors and assumptions which have been used.
Although Tamarack believes that the expectations and assumptions on which the forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on the forward-looking statements because Tamarack can give no assurance that they will prove to
be correct. Since forward-looking statements address future events and conditions, by their very nature they involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those currently anticipated due to a number of factors and risks. These include, but
are not limited to, risks associated with the oil and gas industry in general (e.g., operational risks in development, exploration and production; delays or changes in plans with respect to exploration or development projects or capital expenditures; the uncertainty of reserve
estimates; the uncertainty of estimates and projections relating to production, costs and expenses, and health, safety and environmental risks), incorrect assessment of the value of acquisitions, failure to realize the benefits of acquisitions, constraint in the availability of
services, commodity price and exchange rate fluctuations, changes in legislation (including but not limited to tax laws, royalty regimes and environmental legislation), adverse weather or break-up conditions and uncertainties resulting from potential delays or changes in plans
with respect to exploration or development projects or capital expenditures. Production forecasts are directly impacted by commodity prices and the actual timing of our capital expenditures. Actual results may vary materially from forecasts due to changes in interest rates, oil
differentials, exchange rates and the timing of expenditures and production additions. These and other risks are set out in more detail in Tamarack’s Annual Information Form (the “AIF”) for the year ended December 31, 2019. The AIF can be accessed either on Tamarack’s
website at www.tamarackvalley.ca or under Tamarack’s profile on www.sedar.com.
Forward-looking information is based on current expectations, estimates and projections that involve a number of risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated by the proposed management and described in the forward-
looking information. The forward-looking information contained in this presentation is made as of the date hereof and the proposed management undertakes no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking information, whether as a result of new information,
future events or otherwise, unless required by applicable securities laws. The forward-looking information contained in this presentation is expressly qualified by this cautionary statement.
FOFI Disclosure: This presentation contains future-oriented financial information and financial outlook information (collectively, “FOFI”) about Tamarack’s prospective results of operations, debt, net debt, cash flow, adjusted funds flow, net debt to cash flow/ adjusted funds
flow ratio, cash costs, debt adjusted production per share (“DAPPS”), netbacks, operating netbacks, adjusted operating field netbacks, operating costs and components thereof, all of which are subject to the same assumptions, risk factors, limitations and qualifications as set
forth in the above paragraphs and the assumption outlined in the Non-IFRS measures section below. FOFI contained in this presentation was made as of the date of this presentation and was provided for the purpose of providing further information about Tamarack’s
anticipated future business operations. Tamarack disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any FOFI contained in this presentation, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, unless required pursuant to applicable law. Readers are
cautioned that the FOFI contained in this presentation should not be used for purposes other than for which it is disclosed herein.

Disclaimers (continued)Oil and Gas Advisories
Reserves Disclosure: All reserve references in this presentation are to gross reserves as at the effective date of the applicable evaluation. Gross reserves are Tamarack’s total working interest reserves before the deduction of any royalties and including any royalty interests of
Tamarack. The recovery and reserve estimates of Tamarack’s crude oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas reserves provided herein are estimates only and there is no guarantee that the estimated reserves will be recovered. Actual crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids
reserves may be greater than or less than the estimates provided herein.
It should not be assumed that the present worth of estimated future cash flow presented herein represents the fair market value of the reserves. There is no assurance that the forecast prices and costs assumptions will be attained and variances could be material. The recovery
and reserve estimates of Tamarack’s crude oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas reserves provided herein are estimates only and there is no guarantee that the estimated reserves will be recovered. Actual crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids reserves may be greater
than or less than the estimates provided herein.
Type Curves: Certain type curves disclosure presented herein represents estimates of the production decline and ultimate volumes expected to be recovered from wells over the life of the well. The type curves represent what management thinks an average well will achieve,
based on methodology that is analogous to wells with similar geological features. Individual wells may be higher or lower but over a larger number of wells, management expects the average to come out to the type curve. Over time type curves can and will change based on
achieving more production history on older wells or more recent completion information on newer wells.
BOE Disclosure: The term barrels of oil equivalent (“BOE”) may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A BOE conversion ratio of six thousand cubic feet per barrel of natural gas to barrels of oil equivalence is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily
applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. All BOE conversions in the report are derived from converting gas to oil in the ratio mix of six thousand cubic feet of gas to one barrel of oil.
OOIP Disclosure: The term original-oil-in-place (“OOIP”) is equivalent to total petroleum initially-in-place (“TPIIP”). TPIIP, as defined in the Canadian Oil and Gas Evaluation Handbook, is that quantity of petroleum that is estimated to exist in naturally occurring accumulations. It
includes that quantity of petroleum that is estimated, as of a given date, to be contained in known accumulations, prior to production, plus those estimated quantities in accumulations yet to be discovered. A portion of the TPIIP is considered undiscovered and there is no certainty
that any portion of such undiscovered resources will be discovered. If discovered, there is no certainty that it will be commercially viable to produce any portion of such undiscovered resources. With respect to the portion of the TPIIP that is considered discovered resources, there
is no certainty that it will be commercially viable to produce any portion of such discovered resources. A significant portion of the estimated volumes of TPIIP will never be recovered.
US Registration: This presentation is not an offer of the securities for sale in the United States. The securities have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an exemption
from registration. This presentation shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
Non-IFRS Measures: Certain financial measures referred to in this presentation, such as net debt, adjusted funds flow, free adjusted funds flow, net debt to Q4 adjusted funds flow ratio, net debt to trailing annual adjusted funds flow, market capitalization, annual net operating
income, annual net operating income multiple, enterprise value and capital efficiency are not prescribed by IFRS. Tamarack uses these measures to help evaluate its financial, operating performance, and liquidity and leverage. These non-IFRS financial measures do not have any
standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Net debt is calculated as long-term debt plus working capital surplus or deficit adjusted for risk management contracts. Adjusted funds flow is
calculated by taking net income or loss before taxes and adding back items, including transaction costs, and certain non-cash items including stock-based compensation; accretion expense on decommissioning obligations; depletion, depreciation and amortization; impairment;
unrealized gain or loss on financial instruments; unrealized gain or loss on foreign exchange; unrealized gain or loss on cross-currency swap; and gain or loss on dispositions. Free adjusted funds flow is calculated as adjusted funds flow less capital expenditures, excluding
acquisitions and dispositions. Net debt to Q4 annualized adjusted funds flow ratio is calculated as net debt divided by the forecast annualized adjusted funds flow for the upcoming fourth quarter of the current fiscal year. Net debt to trailing annual adjusted funds flow is calculated
as net debt divided by adjusted funds flow for the previous four quarters. Market capitalization is calculated as shares outstanding multiplied by the closing market price of the shares on the day referenced. Enterprise value is calculated as market capitalization less net debt.
Capital efficiency is calculated as capital expenditures for a project or period divided by the incremental production attributable to the expenditures. Total payout ratio is calculated as capital expenditures, excluding acquisitions and dispositions, divided by adjusted funds flow.
Annual net operating income is calculated as total petroleum and natural gas sales prior to hedging, less royalties, and net production and transportation costs. Management also expresses this as operating field netback within other disclosures. Annual net operating income
multiple is calculated as the total purchase price of the Asset divided by the annual net operating income expressed as a ratio or multiple.
This presentation contains metrics commonly used in the oil and natural gas industry, such as operating netbacks (calculated on a per unit basis as oil, gas and natural gas liquids revenues less royalties, hedging gains (losses) and operating costs). These terms have been
calculated by management and do not have a standardized meaning and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies, and therefore should not be used to make such comparisons. Management uses these oil and gas metrics for its own
performance measurements and to provide shareholders with measures to compare Tamarack’s operations over time. Readers are cautioned that the information provided by these metrics, or that can be derived from the metrics presented in this presentation, should not be relied
upon for investment or other purposes.
Drilling Locations: This presentation discloses drilling locations in two categories: (i) proved and probable locations; and (ii) un-booked locations. Proved plus probable drilling locations set forth herein are based on the Company's most recent independent reserves evaluation as
prepared by GLJ as of December 31, 2019. Un-booked locations are internal estimates based on the Company’s prospective land and an assumption as to the number of wells that can be drilled per section based on industry practice and internal review. Un-booked locations do
not have attributed reserves or resources. Please refer to page 80 of the Company’s Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31, 2019 dated March 4, 2020 for assumptions related to drilling locations.
