Cautionary Note to Investors

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) permits oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only proved reserves that a company has demonstrated by actual production or conclusive formation tests to be economically and legally producible under existing economic and operating conditions. We use certain terms in this presentation, such as probable reserves, possible reserves and potential reserves, that the SEC’s guidelines strictly prohibit us from including in filings with the SEC. Investors are urged to also consider closely the disclosure in our filings with the SEC, available from us by calling (214) 559-3933. You can also obtain our filings from the SEC at www.sec.gov or on our website at www.toreador.net.

The term “potential,” when referring to Toreador’s reserves or its percentage of reserves, represents Toreador management’s current belief or judgment, based on information available to it, regarding the potential reserves that could be recovered or could be recoverable. These numbers should not be viewed as reliable for the purposes of estimating Toreador’s reserves or its prospects. Additionally, the term “potential” has no engineering significance and is not related to the term “possible” as that term may be used by the Society of Petroleum Engineers.

Proved reserves, by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) definition, are reserves that are demonstrated with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions and include proved developed producing, proved developed non-producing and proved undeveloped reserves. Probable reserves are those that have been demonstrated to be potentially recoverable, but where a higher element of risk prevents classification as proved. Possible reserves are those less well defined reserves where risk is relatively high.

Reconciliation of Net Income to EBITDAX

EBITDAX represents earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization, impairment expenses and exploration expenses, including foreign currency remeasurement and exchange gain, gain (loss) from the sale of properties and other assets, equity in earnings (loss) of unconsolidated affiliates, reduction in force and impairment of oil and natural gas properties. The Company has reported EBITDAX because the Company believes EBITDAX is a measure commonly reported by oil and gas exploration and development companies and widely used by investors as an indicator of a company's available cash flow, operating performance and ability to incur and service debt. The Company believes EBITDAX assists investors in comparing a company’s performance on a consistent basis without regard to depreciation, depletion and amortization, impairment of natural gas and oil properties and exploration expenses, which can vary significantly depending upon accounting methods. EBITDAX is not a measure of performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and should not be considered in isolation or construed as a substitute for net income or other operations data or cash flow data prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for purposes of analyzing the Company’s profitability or liquidity, because it does not consider the impact of working capital growth, capital expenditures, debt principal reductions and other sources and uses of cash, which are disclosed in the Company’s statements of cash flows. Investors should carefully consider the specific items included in the Company’s computation of EBITDAX. While the Company has disclosed its EBITDAX to permit a more complete comparative analysis of its operating performance and debt servicing ability relative to other companies, investors should be cautioned that EBITDAX as reported by the Company may not be comparable in all instances to EBITDAX as reported by other companies. EBITDAX amounts may not be fully available for management’s discretionary use, due to requirements to conserve funds for capital expenditures, debt service, preferred stock dividends and other commitments.
