The data contained in this presentation that are not historical facts are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Such statements may relate to capital expenditures, drilling and exploitation activities, production efforts and sales volumes, proved, probable, and possible reserves, operating and administrative costs, future operating or financial results, cash flow and anticipated liquidity, business strategy, property acquisitions, and the availability of drilling rigs and other oil field equipment and services. These forward-looking statements are generally accompanied by words such as “estimated”, “projected”, “potential”, “anticipated”, “forecasted” or other words that convey the uncertainty of future events or outcomes. Although we believe the expectations and forecasts reflected in these and other forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance they will prove to have been correct. These statements are based on our current plans and assumptions and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties such as potential litigation as further outlined in our most recent 10-K and 10-Q. Therefore, the actual results may differ materially from the expectations, estimates or assumptions expressed in or implied by any forward-looking statement made by or on behalf of the Company. Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors –The SEC has recently modified its rules regarding oil and gas reserve information that may be included in filings with the SEC. The newly applicable rules allow oil and gas companies to disclose not only proved reserves, but also probable and possible reserves that meet the SEC’s definitions of such terms. We disclose proved, probable and possible reserves in our filings with the SEC. Our reserves as of June 30, 2013 were estimated by DeGolyer & MacNaughton (“D&M”), W.D Von Gonten & Co. (“Von Gonten”), and Pinnacle Energy Services, LLC (“Pinnacle”) independent petroleum engineering firms. In this presentation, we make reference to probable and possible reserves, and “2P” and “3P” reserves that aggregate categories of reserves. These estimates are by their nature more speculative than estimates of proved reserves and are subject to greater uncertainties, and accordingly the likelihood of recovering those reserves is subject to substantially greater risk. Please see Appendix.

• EPM owns 7.4% of gross revenues
• No CapEx or OpEx…ever
• Exempt from state severance tax until project payout of all actual costs plus capital cost
• Royalty interest = 28% of EPM’s Delhi 3P reserves volumes
• Delhi crude sells as LLS (current premium to WTI)
7.4% Royalty Interest
• Fixed payout based on net field cash flow = revenue minus (field Op Ex + CO2 cost), a near term event
• After payout, EPM received incremental 19% revenue interest and bears 23.9% of CapEx and OpEx
• State severance tax exemption until projected end of fiscal 2017
• EPM projected to bear <$13 MM total Cap Ex in FY14, less than projected incremental net revenues due to reversion
23.9% Reversionary

(19% NRI)

Calendar 2013 CapEx focused on optimizing flood within already developed western half
of field – EPM bears no share of CapEx until WI reversion
Reversion of 23.9% WI & 19% RI in fiscal 2014 expected to add up to 1,500 net BOPD to EPM based on

• Operator discovered underground fluid leak in June 2013 in portion of field
• Operator temporarily suspended CO2 injection in area of leak to lower pressure
• Oil production from wells in affected area began decline due to temporarily suspended
CO2 injection, reducing our royalty income into 2nd quarter of fiscal 2014
• Operator booked $70 MM of total gross expected remediation costs, which includes $45
MM expended through early August
• CO2 injection and oil production in remainder of field continuing
• Operator expects CO2 injection in affected area to resume by 4th calendar quarter
• WI reversion date likely delayed, subject to oil price & volumes, CO2 purchase volumes and
remediation costs to the extent not covered by insurance and operator’s indemnity and
contractually assumed obligations. Any delay in reversion also delays capex contribution
• EPM does not currently believe event will have material impact on reserves and PV10

Innovation for Increasing Recovery
From NGS Technologies, a subsidiary of Evolution Petroleum
www.garplift.com
Industry at risk of losing vast quantities of reserves and production as mature horizontal wells, vertical wells with multiple pay zones and deep vertical wells encounter liquid loading and depletion issues.
These problems exist now in many areas – Giddings, Barnett, Bakken, Haynesville, Permian…
Our technology re-establishes economic production of the “Tail” reserves as it:
Supplements & enhances existing rod pump
Mobilizes remaining fluid to rod pump inlet to unload liquids
Six commercial installations completed and demonstrating – one watered out due to nearby well frac. Recent installation on Phillip DL took well from minimal pdn to ~35 BOEPD.
Risk-sharing or fixed fee models

BEFORE:
Either fluid level eventually drops to a level where rod pump or gas lift are no longer effective, or
Fluid production in gas well builds and eventually shuts off gas production, whether in horizontal wells, vertical wells with multiple pays or deep vertical wells in which rod pumps are not feasible
This can leave substantial volumes of oil and/or gas unrecovered (the “Tail”)
AFTER: GARP®
May add substantial new reserves at low cost
Benefit = up to 30% incremental recovery at minimal cost
Benefit = extends life of lease(s)
Low development cost per net BOE
