2. Cautionary Statements
This presentation includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements express a belief, expectation or intention and are generally accompanied by words that convey
projected future events or outcomes. The forward-looking statements include statements about the company’s corporate strategies, future operations, development
plans and appraisal programs, our drilling inventory and locations, estimated production, rates of return, reserves, projected capital expenditures, projected operating
and other costs, operational optimization initiatives, anticipated efficiency improvements and cost reductions, liquidity and capital structure. We have based these
forward-looking statements on our current expectations and assumptions and analyses made by us in light of our experience and our perception of historical trends,
current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors we believe are appropriate under the circumstances. However, whether actual results
and developments will conform with our expectations and predictions is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including the volatility of oil and natural gas
prices, our success in discovering, estimating, and developing oil and natural gas reserves, the availability and terms of capital, our timely execution of hedge
transactions, credit conditions of global capital markets, changes in economic conditions, regulatory changes and other factors, many of which are beyond our
control.
We refer you to the discussion of risk factors in Part I, Item 1A – “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 and in
comparable “Risk Factors” sections of our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed after such Form 10-K. All of the forward-looking statements made in this
presentation are qualified by these cautionary statements. The actual results or developments anticipated may not be realized or, even if substantially realized, they
may not have the expected consequences to or effects on our company or our business or operations. Such statements are not guarantees of future performance
and actual results or developments may differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any
forward-looking statements.
The SEC permits oil and natural gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only proved, probable and possible reserves, as each is defined by the SEC.
At times we use the terms "EUR" (estimated ultimate recovery) and “recoverable reserves” that the SEC’s guidelines prohibit us from including in filings with the SEC.
These estimates are by their nature more speculative than estimates of proved, probable or possible reserves and, accordingly, are subject to substantially greater
risk of being actually realized by the company. For a discussion of the company’s proved reserves, as calculated under current SEC rules, we refer you to the
company’s amended Annual Report on Form 10-K referenced above, which is available on our website at www.sandridgeenergy.com and at the SEC’s website at
www.sec.gov.

(1) Equivalent Boe are calculated using an energy equivalent ratio of six Mcf of natural gas to one Bbl of crude oil. Using an energy-equivalent ratio does not factor in price differences and energy-equivalent prices may differ
significantly among produced products.
(2) PV-10 is a non-GAAP financial measure and generally differs from Standardized Measure, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, because it does not include the effect of income taxes on discounted future net
cash flows.
