Communications Policy

The President, Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer are designated as the primary spokespersons for the corporation and the TSXV, all employees, agents and representatives of the Corporation shall be notified as such. Others within the Corporation, and outside counsel as specified by the Committee, may from time to time be designated by an authorized spokesperson to speak on behalf of the Corporation or to respond to specific inquires from the investment community, analysts or the media.

Employees, other than the authorized spokespersons, are not to respond under any circumstances to inquiries from the investment community, analysts or the national media, unless specifically asked to do so by an authorized spokesperson to respond to inquiries from their local media. These situations will generally occur after a local news release has been issued on a local issue.

It is essential that the spokesperson(s) as well as the Committee continue to be fully apprised of the Corporation's public disclosure record for all material developments and analyst reports in order that they be in a position to evaluate and discuss those events that may impact the disclosure process, e.g. the status of any material operational developments, extraordinary transactions, major management changes, etc.

CASA Energy's spokespersons shall continue to be integrally involved in approving, scheduling and developing presentations for all meetings and other communications with analysts, including institutional investors and shareholders, arranging appropriate interviews with the Corporation's management and responding to inquires from the public for additional information. After public dissemination, all of the Corporation's disclosure will be monitored by the Corporation spokespersons to track the impact of disclosure on the market and to ensure accurate reporting with a view toward taking corrective measures, if and when necessary. Employees who are not authorized spokespersons will be instructed to refer calls to an authorized spokesperson.

Procedure for Corporate Communications and disclosure Documents

CASA Energy has developed and intends to maintain a routine procedure for the disclosure of all material corporate communications. The Procedures consists of drafting a press release, circulating it for review to the members of the Committee, and other officers and the Board of Directors, as appropriate, alerting the appropriate stock exchange and disseminating the release through a national wire service and other distribution channels so as to effect broad dissemination to all public entities. Further, all public disclosures are added to the Corporation's web site.

CASA Energy shall endeavour to include, where appropriate, in the press releases and other disclosure documents (i) appropriate cautionary information, (ii) specific time references, e.g., "as of (specific time and date rather than indefinite time references such as 'currently') no merger discussion have taken place" to minimize the duty up update, and (iii) information sufficient to answer likely questions to minimize further inquiry. The execution of this disclosure policy will help to ensure compliance with the rules and regulations applicable to public companies and will help reduce volatility, improve market valuation, increase liquidity increase CASA Energy' credibility and enhance shareholders value.

Under normal circumstances a press release will be transmitted during non-trading hours. If the release is being made during TSXV trading hours a telephone call will be made to the Market Surveillance department prior to release, informing them of the release and allowing them as opportunity to determine whether a trading halt is necessary. Further, if the disclosure involves a material change, the corporation will file a report of such material change in accordance with the Regulations made under relevant securities legislation as soon as practicable and in any event within ten days of the date on which the change occurs. With respect to planned periodic disclosures, such as scheduled quarterly or annual financial releases, a news release shall be issued containing the information (for example, quarterly financial results) through a widely circulated news or wire service. The Committee shall recommend to the Board of Directors whether a conference call is appropriate to the state of the Corporation and, if so:

• advance public notice shall be provided by news release of the date and time of a conference call to discuss the information, the subject matter of the call and the means for accessing it;
• the conference call shall be held in an open manner, permitting investors and others to listen either by telephone or through Internet web casting; and
• A dial-in and/or web replay or transcripts of the call shall be available for a reasonable period of time after the analyst conference call.

Maintaining the Confidentiality of Information

Securities legislation permits a company to delay disclosure of a material change and to keep it temporarily confidential in restricted circumstances where immediate disclosure of such material information would be unduly detrimental to the interests of the Corporation. In such cases the Corporation shall make a confidential filing with the appropriate securities, commissions and where applicable, shall renew the confidential filing every 10 days if the Corporation wishes to maintain the confidentiality of such information.

To the extent possible, the Committee shall consult with respect to any decision as to whether disclosure may be delayed. In the event of the failure of the Committee to reach consensus on the decision, the President and Chief Executive Officer shall be responsible for the final determination.

In order to assist the Committee in making an appropriate determination, the following are examples of circumstances in which the Committee may conclude that the disclosure would be unduly detrimental to the Corporation's interests:

• Release of the information would prejudice the ability of the Corporation to pursue specific and limited objectives or to complete a transaction or series of the transaction that are currently underway. For example, premature disclosure of the fact that the Corporation intends to purchase a significant asset may increase the cost of making the acquisition.
• Disclosure of the information would provide competitors with confidential corporate information that would be of significant benefit to them, Such information may be confidential if the detriment to the Corporation resulting from the disclosure would outweigh the detriment to the market in not having access to the information. Such information should not be withheld if it is available to competitors from other sources.
• Disclosure of information concerning the status of ongoing negotiations would prejudice the successful completion of those negotiations. It is unnecessary to make a series of announcements concerning the status of negotiations with another party concerning a particular transaction. Disclosure should be made once “concrete information” is available, such as a final decision to proceed with a transaction, and at a later point in time, announcing the finalization of the terms of the transaction.

In order to keep material information confidential, the Committee should ensure that:

• The information is not disclosed to any other person in or outside the Corporation, except in the necessary course of business. The necessary course of business exception would generally cover communications with:
  • vendors, suppliers, or strategic partners on issues such as research and development, sales and marketing, and supply contracts;
  • employees, officers, and board members;
  • lenders, legal counsel, auditors, underwriters, and financial and other professional advisors to the company;
  • parties to negotiations;
  • labour unions and industry associations;
  • government agencies and non-governmental regulators; and
  • credit rating agencies (provided that the information is disclosed for the purpose of assisting the agency to formulate a credit rating and the agency's ratings generally are or will be publicly available
• If the information is required to be disclosed in the necessary course of business, the Corporation shall advise persons receiving such information that until such information is generally disclosed, it is to be kept confidential and that to the extent possible, such persons should enter into agreements with the Corporation prohibiting disclosure or use of the information in any way (including trading or further tipping) other than for the purposes of the particular transaction, project or proceeding under discussion or negotiation, if any.
• There is no selective disclosure of confidential information to third parties including, without limitation, media, brokers, research analysts, investors or other market professionals.
• Any such information is publicly disclosed at the earliest opportunity.

In the event that selective disclosure of confidential information inadvertently occurs, the Committee shall ensure that the Corporation immediately contacts relevant stock exchanges to determine whether a trading halt may be necessary and shall further disclose such information publicly by issuing a news release and reporting the inadvertent disclosure to the Corporate Governance Committee of the Corporation (the "Governance Committee"). Pending public release as described, the Corporation shall contact any parties who have received such information to advice that it is material and that it has yet to be publicly disclosed.

In order to assist the Committee to maintain confidentiality of information, particularly in the context of a proposed or ongoing transaction, the Committee should ensure that:

• Only those persons directly responsible for the negotiation or implementation of the transaction are permitted access to confidential documents and other information relating to the transaction
• All such documentation and information be clearly marked "Confidential" and be maintained in places that other persons do not have access to.
• Ensure that confidential documents being prepared or maintained on the Corporation's computer systems are "password protected" in order to avoid electronic access from third parties
• All staff are advised in writing at the outset of a particular transaction that all information and documentation respecting such transaction is to be kept confidential and that communications of any kind regarding investment in the Corporation's securities should cease, in order to avoid influencing the investment decisions of third parties in circumstances where the persons are prohibited from trading in the Corporation's securities.

Board and Audit Committee Review of Certain Disclosure

The Board of Directors or the Audit Committee shall review all disclosures containing financial information based on the Corporation's financial statements prior to the public release of such statements.

Responding to Market Rumours

CASA Energy's policy is not to comment on market rumours. So long as it is clear that CASA Energy is not the source of the market rumour, the spokesperson will respond consistently to those rumours, saying, "It is our policy not to comment on market rumours or speculation". However, if market activity indicates that trading is being unduly influenced by rumours, CASA Energy will respond to any request from the TSXV to disseminate a clarification.

Release of Earnings Projections

CASA Energy does not release earnings projections. The Corporation will provide non-material forward-looking information to analysts in their fact-checking and efforts to develop earnings estimates and generally to enable the investment community to better evaluate the Corporation and its prospects for performance.

Guidance of Analyst

It is CASA Energy's policy, when analysts inquire with respect to their earnings estimates to limit responses to identifying publicly disclosed factual information that may affect an analyst's model and to point out any inaccuracies or omissions with reference to publicly available information about the Corporation. The spokesperson may correct factual errors in analysts' report or models but shall refrain from making any selective disclosures through implied guidance by indicating whether an analyst's estimate is "on target", "too high" or "too low".

Review of Analyst Reports

It is the Corporation's policy to review upon request analyst' models or reports. However, the spokesperson will comment only on factual information contained in the report or model and will not comment on analysts' conclusions or soft information contained in theft report or model.

With regard to responding to financial models or drafts or analysts' research reports, it will continue to be CASA Energy's policy to review for publicly disclosed, factual content and to only give guidance when assumptions have been made on the basis of incorrect data that render the conclusions reached unrealistic. A written statement will be provided with each review stating that CASA Energy reviewed the report/model for factual errors only and this review does not necessarily embrace the soft information or conclusions. It is imperative that the control of this process is centralized through the Committee.

Differential Disclosure

It is the Corporation's policy to refrain from providing differential disclosure to members of the investment community. It is recognized however that analysts and portfolio managers require more detailed information to make their analyses and assessments regarding a Corporation's performance and prospects. To ensure equal access to information, the Corporation utilizes its regular periodic disclosures to disclose details about the Corporation of interest to analysts. In particular, the Corporation prepares and discloses a comprehensive management discussion and analysis to assist and analysts in their forecasting.

Distributing or Referring to Analysts' Reports

It is the Corporation's policy, if requested, to provide a list of all analysts that covers the Corporation, as well as provide a list of all reports that have been issued over the last 12 month period. This information shall be, to the extent possible, provided on the Corporation's website as well as its investor fact sheet.

Analyst Conference Calls and Industry Conferences

It is the Corporation's policy that if an analyst conference call or industry conference is to be held, it is to be held in an open manner which allows all interested parties to listen either by telephone and/or through a web cast. Detailed records and/or transcripts of any conference call, meeting or industry conference presentation shall be kept and reviewed to determine whether any unintentional selective disclosure has occurred. Is so, immediate steps shall be taken to ensure that a full public announcement is made, including contacting the relevant stock exchanges to discuss whether a trading halt is necessary pending the issuance of a news release.
