Malka Oil AB (publ) is an independent oil and gas production company
operating in the Tomsk region in western Siberia. Its current
position consists of oil and gas assets for licence block number 87
in the said region. The block has a surface of 1,800 square
kilometres. There are currently three oil fields at the licence
block, namely Zapadno-Luginetskoye ("ZL"), Lower Luginetskoye ("LL")
and the Schinginskoye oil field, and a large quantity of other not
yet drilled oil structures.
The ZL and LL oil fields are in production and these two oil fields
have during 2007 went through reserve classification by the Russian
State Committee of Reserves (GKZ) and during spring 2008 a Western
reserve study made by DeGolyer and MacNaughton. The GKZ registered
extractable oil and condensate reserves in the categories C1 and C2
amounted to 97 million barrels at the end of 2007. The company's own
estimate of its extractable oil and condensate reserves, C1+ C2, in
the three existing oil fields on licence block number 87 is currently
140-190 million barrels. The Western reserve study estimation as of
April 30, 2008 amounted to 43.5 million barrels 2P and 90.6 million
barrels 3P oil reserves.
Malka Oil's licence block is surrounded by a large number of
producing oil and gas fields.

These statements and assumptions are subject to a large number of

changes in the available geological information concerning the

stage, Malka's actual future development may significantly deviate
from that indicated in the company's informative statements. Malka
assumes no implicit liability to immediately update any such future
