(Tables may not add due to rounding.)
The Company's Proved plus Probable reserves are relatively unchanged from the
start of the year (6,554 mstboe) as production of 361 mstboe and property
dispositions of 149 mstboe were offset by additions and revisions to previous
estimates of 522 mstboe. The revisions to previous estimates were positive 12.5
% and 7.5% for the Proved and P+P reserves. The positive revisions were mainly
the result of a change in development plans to include horizontal drilling at
Sweeney and Niton.
Approximately 76% of the Proved Developed Non Producing (PDNP) Reserves
representing 88% of the PDNP NPV10 are expected to be on-stream by mid 2010.
These reserves relate to the tie-in of one gas well at Pouce Coupe,
re-activation of six wells at Boundary Lk South and the tie-in of a non operated
Pembina Cardium horizontal well.
Proved Undeveloped (PUD) Reserves are booked for 7.2 net infill wells at
Sweeney, Pouce Coupe, and Niton. One (0.6 net) PUD well at Sweeney has since
been drilled, completed and placed on production.

Update
On February 11, 2010 the Company announced it has entered into an Arrangement
Agreement with One Exploration Inc. (OneEx). Canext expects to mail an
information circular to its shareholders on or about March 16, 2010 and has
scheduled a special meeting of the Canext Shareholders for April 12, 2010.
Reader advisory:
The term "BOE" may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. In
accordance with NI 51-101, a BOE conversion ratio for natural gas of 6 mscf: 1
bbl has been used which is based on an energy equivalency conversion method
primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value
equivalency at the wellhead.
Investors are cautioned that the preceding statement of the Company may include
certain estimates, assumptions and other forward-looking information. The actual
future performance, developments and/or results of the Company may differ
materially from any or all of the forward-looking statements, which include
current expectations, estimates and projections, in all or part attributable to
general economic conditions and other risks, uncertainties and circumstances
partly or totally outside the control of the Company, including natural gas/oil
prices, reserve estimates, drilling risks, future production of gas and oil,
rates of inflation, changes in future costs and expenses related to the
activities involving the exploration, development and production of gas and oil
hedging, financing availability and other risks related to financial activities.
The Company's forward looking statements are expressly qualified in their
entirety by this cautionary statement. Except as required by law, the Company
undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking
statements.
