•   A substantial holding at 40%, with commensurate major input to decisions

•   Spudding December 2018

•   Big prize - estimated in-place resources:
    • 250 MMbbl (P50) in total Wick structure (Upland internal estimate)
    • 219 MMbbl (Pmean) in P2235 alone (Blackwatch CPR)

•   Low estimated cost for Wick well - £5.7 million AFE:
    • Vertical
    • Shallow water – jack-up rig
    • Relatively shallow targets
    • Vast bulk of well costs now prepaid, considerable VAT refund due

                                                                               13
•   Upland has a good understanding of the structural geology of the area which has
    allowed it to:
    • address the key fault risk in detail
    • identify the Wick Deep repeated section potential

•   Attractive economics & relatively cheap & easy field development

•   Wick-1 will be drilled in shallow water offshore – has avoided most UK onshore
    planning delays, but still cheap. Subsequent appraisal/development wells could
    be from onshore or offshore

•   Lots of data – covered by 3D seismic, nearby discoveries – so reduced risk

•   AMI over parts of surrounding area – ready to capitalise on success in Wick with
    additional well-informed acreage acquisitions.
