forecast in such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future
performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that may prove to be
incorrect and are difficult to predict such as oil and gas prices; operational hazards and drilling
risks; potential failure to achieve, and potential delays in achieving expected reserves or
production levels from existing and future oil and gas development projects; unsuccessful
exploratory activities; unexpected cost increases or technical difficulties in constructing,
maintaining or modifying company facilities; international monetary conditions and exchange
controls; potential liability for remedial actions under existing or future environmental regulations
or from pending or future litigation; limited access to capital or significantly higher cost of capital
related to illiquidity or uncertainty in the domestic or international financial markets; general
domestic and international economic and political conditions, as well as changes in tax,
environmental and other laws applicable to ConocoPhillips’ business and other economic,
business, competitive and/or regulatory factors affecting ConocoPhillips’ business generally as set

Use of non-GAAP financial information – This presentation includes non-GAAP financial measures,
which are included to help facilitate comparison of company operating performance across periods
and with peer companies. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the nearest
corresponding GAAP measure is available at www.conocophillips.com/nongaap.
Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors – The SEC permits oil and gas companies, in their filings with the
SEC, to disclose only proved, probable and possible reserves. We use the term "resource" in this
presentation that the SEC’s guidelines prohibit us from including in filings with the SEC. U.S.
investors are urged to consider closely the oil and gas disclosures in our Form 10-K and other
reports and filings with the SEC. Copies are available from the SEC and from the ConocoPhillips
website.
