Investors are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties.

The levels of and fluctuations in the prices for natural gas and oil and the demand for those commodities, the outcome of ANEC’s development and exploration activities, including the success of its current and proposed well drilling activities and the availability of capital to pursue those activities could affect ANEC and its future prospects. ANEC’s inability to raise additional capital would adversely affect its ability to pursue its drilling program and its liquidity. Important additional factors that could cause such differences are described in ANEC’s periodic reports and other filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission and may be viewed at the Commission’s Website at http://www.sec.gov/.
