Forward-looking Statements and Other Matters

20

This presentation contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities law. Words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “expects,” “intends,”

“will,” “should,” “may,” “estimate,” and similar expressions may be used to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not statements of historical

fact and reflect Noble Energy’s current views about future events. They include estimates of oil and natural gas reserves and resources, estimates of future production,

assumptions regarding future oil and natural gas pricing, planned drilling activity, future results of operations, projected cash flow and liquidity, business strategy and other

plans and objectives for future operations. No assurances can be given that the forward-looking statements contained in this presentation will occur as projected, and actual

results may differ materially from those projected. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations, estimates and assumptions that involve a number of risks

and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. These risks include, without limitation, the volatility in commodity prices for crude

oil and natural gas, the presence or recoverability of estimated reserves, the ability to replace reserves, environmental risks, drilling and operating risks, exploration and

development risks, competition, government regulation or other actions, the ability of management to execute its plans to meet its goals and other risks inherent in Noble

Energy’s business that are discussed in its most recent Form 10-K and in other reports on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These reports are

also available from Noble Energy’s offices or website, http://www.nobleenergyinc.com. Forward-looking statements are based on the estimates and opinions of

management at the time the statements are made. Noble Energy does not assume any obligation to update forward-looking statements should circumstances or

management's estimates or opinions change.

The SEC requires oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose 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. The SEC permits the optional disclosure of probable and

possible reserves, however, we have not disclosed our probable and possible reserves in our filings with the SEC. We use certain terms in this presentation, such as

“MMBoe type curve”. These estimates are by their nature more speculative than estimates of proved, probable and possible reserves and accordingly are subject to

substantially greater risk of being actually realized. The SEC guidelines strictly prohibit us from including these estimates in filings with the SEC. Investors are urged to

consider closely the disclosures and risk factors in our most recent Form 10-K and in other reports on file with the SEC, available from Noble Energy’s offices or website,

http://www.nobleenergyinc.com.

This presentation also contains certain historical non-GAAP measures of financial performance that management believes are good tools for internal use and the investment

community in evaluating Noble Energy’s overall financial performance. These non-GAAP measures are broadly used to value and compare companies in the crude oil and

natural gas industry. Please see the Noble Energy’s respective earnings release for reconciliations of the differences between any historical non-GAAP measures used in

this presentation and the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
