By a letter received May 1, 2013, Cook Inlet Energy, LLC (CIE) requested an exception to the spacing provisions of 20 AAC 25.055(a)(1) to test and produce the planned Sword No. 1 exploratory oil well within 500 feet of a property line where ownership or landownership changes. 2. Pursuant to 20 AAC 25.540, the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (AOGCC) tentatively scheduled a public hearing for June 18, 2013. On May 14, 2013, the AOGCC published notice of the opportunity for that hearing on the State of Alaska's Online Public Notice website and on the AOGCC's website, electronically transmitted the notice to all persons on the AOGCC's email distribution list, and mailed printed copies of the notice to all persons on the AOGCC's mailing distribution list. On May 15, 2013, the notice was published in the ANCHORAGE DAILY NEWS. No protest to the application or request for hearing was received. On June 11, 2013, the tentatively scheduled public hearing was vacated. 3. Subsequently, CIE revised the Surface, Top of Productive Interval and Bottomhole locations for the Sword No. 1 well. 4. By letter dated and received on June 17, 20013, CIE submitted a revised request for an exception to the spacing provisions of 20 AAC 25.055(a)(1) to test and produce the planned Sword No. 1 exploratory oil well within 500 feet of a property line where ownership or landownership changes. 5. The AOGCC tentatively scheduled a public hearing for July 23, 2013. On June 19, 2013, the AOGCC published notice of the opportunity for that hearing on the State of Alaska's Online Public Notice website and on the AOGCC's website, electronically transmitted the notice to all persons on the AOGCC's email distribution list, and mailed printed copies of the notice to all persons on the AOGCC's mailing distribution list. On June 20, 2013, the notice was published in the ANCHORAGE DAILY NEWS. 6. Pursuant to 20 AAC 25.055(d)(1), CIE sent by certified mail notice of the application to all owners, landowners, and operators of all properties within 1,000 feet of the Sword No. CO 675 August 23, 2013 Page 2 of 3 1 well. CIE provided the AOGCC the notice, date of mailing, and addresses to which the notice was sent. 7. No protest to the application or request for hearing was received. 8. Because CIE provided sufficient information upon which to make an informed decision, the request can be resolved without a hearing. 9. The tentatively scheduled public hearing was vacated on July 18, 2013. FINDINGS: 1. CIE is the operator of the proposed Sword No. 1 exploratory well, located on the west side of the Cook Inlet, Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska. 2. The Sword No. 1 will be a deviated exploratory well with an onshore surface location 2,195 feet from the south line and 1,860 feet from the west line of Section 16, Township 8 North, Range 14 West, Seward Meridian (S.M.). The projected offshore bottom -hole location is 2,527 feet from the north line and 594 feet from the west line of Section 2, Township 8 North, Range 14 West, S.M. 3. The surface location of Sword No. 1 will be situated on acreage owned by Cook Inlet Region, Inc. (CIRI). The bottom -hole location of the well will lie within State of Alaska lease ADL 17602 Segment 1. 4. CIE provided evidence to the AOGCC that the application was sent on June 17, 2013 by certified mail to all affected owners, landowners, and operators—i.e., State of Alaska, CIRI, and Hilcorp Alaska, LLC. 5. The only nearby well is the plugged and abandoned West Foreland Unit 1 exploratory well located over 1,900 feet to the southwest. 6. The AOGCC received no comments, objections or protests in response to the public notice regarding the proposed Sword No. 1 well or to the notification sent by CIE to all known owners, landowners, and operators within 1,000 feet of the Sword No. 1 well. 7. Sword No. 1 is a proposed exploratory oil well that will test potential reservoir sands in the most structurally favorable position. CONCLUSIONS: 1. An exception to the well spacing provisions of 20 AAC 25.055(a)(1) is necessary to test and regularly produce the Sword No. 1 exploratory oil well. 2. An exception to the well spacing provisions of 20 AAC 25.055(a)(1) for the Sword No. 1 exploratory oil well is consistent with sound engineering and geoscience principles and will not result in waste or jeopardize correlative rights of adjoining or nearby owners. NOW THEREFORE IT IS ORDERED: CIE's application for an order granting an exception to the well spacing provisions of 20 AAC 25.055(a)(1) to allow test and regularly produce the Sword No. 1 exploratory oil well is hereby CO 675 • • August 23, 2013 Page 3 of 3 approved as long as CIE complies with the terms of all lease agreements, applicable Alaska laws, and all other legal requirements.

If the AOGCC denies reconsideration, upon denial, this order or decision and the denial of reconsideration are FINAL and may be appealed to superior court. The appeal MUST be filed within 33 days after the date on which the AOGCC mails, OR 30 days if the AOGCC otherwise distributes, the order or decision denying reconsideration, UNLESS the denial is by inaction, in which case the appeal MUST be filed within 40 days after the date on which the application for reconsideration was filed. If the AOGCC grants an application for reconsideration, this order or decision does not become final. Rather, the order or decision on reconsideration will be the FINAL order or decision of the AOGCC, and it may be appealed to superior court.

Specifically, CIE requests approval to drill a new well, Sword #l, for oil within 500 feet of a property line where the owner and landowner is not the same on both sides of the line. CIE previously applied for a spacing exception for this well on May 1, 2013, but has since moved the planned well location and is re -applying for the exception as a result. CIE proposes to drill the Sword #1 Well from an onshore location from an existing pad at the West McArthur River Production Facility, located within Section 16, T. 8 N., R. 14 W., S.M. at 600 46' 58.4447" N and 151' 44' 49.9872" W. The Sword #1 Well will have a bottomhole location within Section 2, T. 8 N., R. 14 W., 2,527' feet from the north line and 594' feet from the west line. The top of the Hemlock productive zone is anticipated to fall roughly 2,215 feet from the south line and 143' from the west line of Section 2. CIE is planning to test and potentially produce from zones where the wellbore traverses the western section line of Section 2. This planned production may occur within 500 feet of either side of the section line. The attached Exhibit A lists the Landowners, Owners, and Operators within 1,000 feet of the Sword #1 Well and their contact information. The attached Exhibit B is a plat prepared on Alaska Mapper, the State of Alaska's mapping program, at a scale which complies with 20 AAC 25.055(d)(2). The attached Exhibit C is the Notice provided to Landowners, Owners and Operators by certified mail. The attached Exhibit D is an affidavit from Mr. Tim Jones, Registered Landman # 84167 and Staff Landman for CIE, verifying the plat and facts contained herein.

Regarding your request for information on why CIE chose this surface location for the Sword #1 well, CIE is planning to drill Sword #1 from an onshore location located just south of our West McArthur River Production Facility. This location was chosen to avoid the necessity of using a jack -up rig or other offshore drilling platform to drill this well. In addition, the surface location is very near to CIE's existing infrastructure. Regarding your other request for information about the specific location of the top and bottom of the productive interval as they relate to distance from the section line, we are working to obtain that information and will provide it to you in a se-parate email. I will be out of the office through the end of the week, starting tomorrow afternoon, but I have asked Pirtle Bates to send you the information once we receive it. Please let me know if you have any questions, or need any further information.
