The following is a summary of the oil and natural gas reserves and the value of future net revenue of
Nordic Oil and Gas Ltd. (the "Company") as evaluated by Chapman Petroleum Engineering Ltd.
(“Chapman”) as at December 31, 2013, and dated April 24, 2014 (the "Chapman Report"). Chapman is an independent qualified reserves evaluator and auditor.
All evaluations of future revenue are after the deduction of future income tax expenses, unless otherwise noted in the tables, royalties, development costs, production costs and well abandonment costs but before consideration of indirect costs such as administrative, overhead and other miscellaneous expenses. The estimated future net revenue contained in the following tables does not necessarily represent the fair market value of the Company's reserves. There is no assurance that the forecast price and cost assumptions contained in the Chapman Report will be attained and variances could be material. Other assumptions and qualifications relating to costs and other matters are included in the Chapman Report. The recovery and reserves estimates on the Company's properties described herein are estimates only. The actual reserves on the Company's properties may be greater or less than those calculated.
All monetary values presented in this document are expressed in terms of Canadian dollars.

Notes:
1. "Gross Reserves" are the Company's working interest (operating or non-operating) share before deducting of royalties and without including any royalty interests of the Company. "Net Reserves" are the Company's working interest (operating or nonoperating) share after deduction of royalty obligations, plus the Company's royalty interests in reserves.
2. "Proved" reserves are those reserves that can be estimated with a high degree of certainty to be recoverable. It is likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will exceed the estimated proved reserves.
3. "Probable" reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than proved reserves. It is equally likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will be greater or less than the sum of the estimated proved plus probable reserves.
4. "Possible" reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than probable reserves. It is unlikely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will exceed the sum of the estimated proved plus probable plus possible reserves.
5. "Developed" reserves are those reserves that are expected to be recovered from existing wells and installed facilities or, if facilities have not been installed, that would involve a low expenditure (e.g. when compared to the cost of drilling a well) to put the reserves on production.
6. "Developed Producing" reserves are those reserves that are expected to be recovered from completion intervals open at the time of the estimate. These reserves may be currently producing or, if shut-in, they must have previously been on production, and the date of resumption of production must be known with reasonable certainty.
7. "Developed Non-Producing" reserves are those reserves that either have not been on production, or have previously been on production, but are shut in, and the date of resumption of production is unknown.
8. "Undeveloped" reserves are those reserves expected to be recovered from know accumulations where a significant expenditure (for example, when compared to the cost of drilling a well) is required to render them capable of production. They must fully meet the requirements of the reserves classification (proved, probable, possible) to which they are assigned.
9. Includes associated, non-associated and solution gas where applicable.

The following tables detail the benchmark reference prices for the regions in which the Company operated, as at December 31, 2013, reflected in the reserves data disclosed above under “Part 2 –
Disclosure of Reserves Data ”. The forecast price assumptions assume the continuance of current laws and regulations and take into account inflation with respect to future operating and capital costs.
There will be adjustments to field prices from the benchmarks below:

The following discussion generally describes the basis on which the Company attributes proved and probable undeveloped reserves and its plans for developing those undeveloped reserves.
Proved Undeveloped Reserves
The Company’s proved undeveloped reserves are located on Company lands near current producers where the formations are well known and the productivity of undrilled locations can be predicted with a high degree of certainty. These reserves are scheduled to be developed in 2014 and 2015.
Probable Undeveloped Reserves
The Company’s probable undeveloped reserves are based on similar considerations as the proved reserves except the predicted recoveries are known with less certainty. These reserves are also forecast to be developed in 2014 and 2015.
Significant Factors or Uncertainties
The estimation of reserves requires significant judgment and decisions based on available geological, geophysical, engineering and economic data. These estimates can change substantially as additional information from ongoing development activities and production performance becomes available and as economic and political conditions impact oil and gas prices and costs change. The Company’s estimates are based on current production forecast, prices and econom ic conditions. All of the Company’s reserves are evaluated by Chapman Petroleum Engineering Ltd., an independent engineering firm.
As circumstances change and additional data becomes available, reserve estimates also change. Based on new information, reserves estimates are reviewed and revised, either upward or downward, as warranted. Although every reasonable effort has been made by the Company to ensure that reserves estimate are accurate, revisions may arise as new information becomes available. As new geological, production and economic data is incorporated into the process of estimating reserves the accuracy of the reserve estimate improves.
Certain information regarding the Company set forth in this report, including management’s assessment of the Comp any’s future plans and operations contain forward-looking statements that involve substantial known and unknown risks and uncertainties. These risks include, but are not limited to: the risks associated with the oil and gas industry, commodity prices and exchange rates; industry related risks could include, but are not limited to, operational risks in exploration, development and production, delays or changes in plans, risks associated with the uncertainty of reserve estimates, health and safety risks and the uncertainty of estimates and projections of production, costs and expenses. Competition from other producers, the lack of available qualified personnel or management, stock market volatility and ability to access sufficient capital from internal and external sources are additional risks the Company faces in this market. The Company’s actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these forward looking statements and accordingly, no assurance can be given that any events anticipated by the forward looking statements will transpire or occur, if any of them do, what benefits the Company can derive from. The reader is cautioned not to place undue reliance on this forward looking information.

The Company has been successful in raising its required capital through equity financings and plans to continue to do so for the development costs specified above. The effect of the costs of the expected funding would have no impact on the revenues or reserves currently being reported.

Additional Information Concerning Abandonment and Reclamation Costs
The estimated abandonment and restoration costs used by Chapman are based on the AER Directive 11, which details the typical costs of abandonment and reclamation by well type in each specific geographic region. The Company expects to have costs relating to 21.8 net wells, including the locations to be drilled. Costs have been included in the Chapman report for all wells to which reserves have been assigned. The Company owns 2.7 net wells to which no reserves have been assigned. The cost of abandoning these wells is included in the following table but not in the Chapman report.
