 In an uncontested election, such as this one, any nominee for director who has a majority of votes cast "withheld" from his or her election will be required to promptly tender his or her resignation to the Board. The corporate governance/nominating committee will consider the tendered resignation and recommend to the Board whether to accept or reject the resignation. The Board will act on the committee's recommendation and publicly disclose its decision. Any director who tenders his or her resignation will not participate in the committee's recommendation or the board action regarding whether to accept or reject the tendered resignation. Any vacancies on the Board may be filled in accordance with our governing documents. Information about our current directors, who are also the nominees for director, appears below under the heading "Director Nominees." The Board recommends that stockholders vote "FOR" the election of each of the director nominees. Selection Criteria and Qualifications of Director Candidates Director Selection Process The Board is presently set at nine members, and Arkoma Drilling, L.P. and Williston Drilling, L.P.

If the aggregate interest held by the Jones Partnerships (together with any affiliates) falls below 50% of the outstanding common stock of the Company (on a fully diluted basis), the Company and the Board are only required to nominate and recommend four Jones Designees. If the aggregate interest held by the Jones Partnerships (together with any affiliates) falls below 35% of the outstanding common stock of the Company (on a fully diluted basis), the Company and the Board are only required to nominate and recommend two Jones Designees. If the aggregate interest held by the Jones Partnerships (together with any affiliates) falls below 15% of the outstanding common stock of the Company (on a fully diluted basis), the Company and the Board will have no further obligation to nominate and

recommend any Jones Designees to the Board. All of the director nominees are current Jones Designees, and there are four vacancies on the Board.

As a result of the ownership by the Jones Partnerships of over 50% of our outstanding common stock, we are a "controlled company" pursuant to the NYSE corporate governance standards. Under the NYSE rules, a company in which more than 50% of the voting power is held by an individual, group or another company is a "controlled company"
