HOUSTON AMERICAN ENERGY

Overview of Colombia (continued)

• Colombia is currently a net exporter (approximately 325,000

bbls/d) of crude oil, but the country's reserves and production

are declining

• To combat this decline, the Colombian government enacted a number of incentives aimed at attracting foreign investment in 2004:

Sliding scale royalty rates based on field size, with an

8% royalty rate for most fields

Government allows 100% company ownership of

production projects

Eliminated government back-in rights on new

concessions

Vastly improved security environment - President Uribe

on offensive with broad popular support. Military

increased 273,000 to 370,000 personnel in 2 years.

US assistance at US$600 million/year

Progressive Colombia fiscal changes similar to those in

UK which spurred renewed interest in the North Sea

• Additionally, Colombia is moving away from other leftist

countries in South America and is considering selling up to

20% of Ecopetrol, its State run oil company

• Colombia has a well developed infrastructure system

comprising of over 3,700 miles of crude and product pipelines.

This system is concentrated on transporting crude from the

main producing basins (Llanos and Magdalenas)

Investment Considerations

• Uniquely positioned to capitalize on the improving environment for independent oil and gas companies in Colombia

Colombian government’s terms for foreign investment are improving

Pure-play small cap investment opportunity with exposure to Colombia

• Participating in successful drilling program led by Hupecol

Drilled 38 wells in Colombia with a 75% success rate to date

Wells drilled 2005, 2006, and 1st quarter 2007 – 21 out of 27 wells completed as producers for a 77% success rate

Significant acreage position in the prolific Llanos Basin in Colombia

• Low cost structure

Non-operator strategy allows for minimal corporate staff

Colombian properties have lower finding and development costs versus U.S. conventional reserves

• Experienced and incentivized management and board of directors with access to proprietary deal flow

• Simple capitalization structure
