Funds flow from operations are not measures that have any standardized meaning
prescribed by IFRS or Canadian GAAP and accordingly are referred to as non -
GAAP measures. Therefore, these measures may not be comparable to similar
measures presented by other issuers. These measures have been described and
presented here and in our MD&A in order to provide shareholders and potential
investors with additional information regarding Redwater's liquidity and its
ability to generate funds to finance its operations. Management utilizes "Funds
flow from operations" as a key measure to assess the ability of RedWater to
finance operating activities and capital activities. All references to funds
flow from operations throughout this report are calculated based on cash flows
from operating activities before changes in non-cash working capital. Cash flows
from operating activities are the closest comparable figure which is calculated
in accordance with IFRS and Canadian GAAP.


BOE Equivalent 

Barrel of oil equivalents or BOEs may be misleading, particularly if used in
isolation. A BOE conversion ratio of 6 mcf:1 bbl is based on an energy
equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does
not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.
