ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
 Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
    (1)
    
    Control environment We did not maintain an effective control environment. The control
environment, which is the responsibility of senior management, sets the tone of the
organization, influences the control consciousness of its people, and is the foundation for
all other components of internal control over financial reporting. Each of these control
environment material weaknesses contributed to the material weaknesses discussed in items
(2) through (7) below. We did not maintain an effective control environment because of the
following material weaknesses:
 (a)
    
    We did not maintain a tone and control consciousness that consistently emphasized
adherence to accurate financial reporting and enforcement of our policies and
procedures. This control deficiency fostered a lack of sufficient appreciation for
internal controls over financial reporting, allowed for management override of internal
controls in certain circumstances and resulted in an ineffective process for monitoring
the adherence to our policies and procedures.(b)
    
    In addition, we did not maintain a sufficient complement of personnel with an
appropriate level of accounting knowledge, experience, and training in the application
of GAAP commensurate with our financial reporting requirements and business environment.(c)
    
    We did not maintain an effective anti-fraud program designed to detect and
prevent fraud relating to (i) an effective whistle-blower program, (ii) consistent
background checks of personnel in positions of responsibility, and (iii) an ongoing
program to manage identified fraud risks.
  (2)
    
    Internal control over financial reporting We did not maintain effective monitoring
controls to determine the adequacy of our internal control over financial reporting and
related policies and procedures because of the following material weaknesses:
 14




---



##### Table of Contents



(a)
    
    Our policies and procedures with respect to the review, supervision and
monitoring of our accounting operations throughout the organization were either not
designed and in place or not operating effectively.(b)
    
    We did not maintain an effective internal control monitoring function.
Specifically, there were insufficient policies and procedures to effectively determine
the adequacy of our internal control over financial reporting and monitoring the ongoing
effectiveness thereof.
  (3)
    
    Period end financial close and reporting We did not establish and maintain effective
controls over certain of our period-end financial close and reporting processes because of
the following material weaknesses:
 (a)
    
    We did not maintain effective controls over the preparation and review of the
interim and annual consolidated financial statements and to ensure that we identified
and accumulated all required supporting information to ensure the completeness and
accuracy of the consolidated financial statements and that balances and disclosures
reported in the consolidated financial statements reconciled to the underlying
supporting schedules and accounting records.(b)
    
    We did not maintain effective controls to ensure that we identified and
accumulated all required supporting information to ensure the completeness and
accuracy of the accounting records.(c)
    
    We did not maintain effective controls over the preparation, review and
approval of account reconciliations. Specifically, we did not have effective controls
over the completeness and accuracy of supporting schedules for substantially all
financial statement account reconciliations.(d)
    
    We did not maintain effective controls over the complete and accurate
recording and monitoring of intercompany accounts. Specifically, effective controls
were not designed and in place to ensure that intercompany balances were completely
and accurately classified and reported in our underlying accounting records and to
ensure proper elimination as part of the consolidation process.(e)
    
    We did not maintain effective controls over the recording of journal entries,
both recurring and non-recurring. Specifically, effective controls were not designed
and in place to ensure that journal entries were properly prepared with sufficient
support or documentation or were reviewed and approved to ensure the accuracy and
completeness of the journal entries recorded.
 (4)
    
    Derivative instruments We did not establish and maintain effective controls to
ensure the correct application of GAAP related to derivative instruments. Specifically,
we did not adequately document the criteria for measuring hedge effectiveness at the
inception of certain derivative transactions and did not subsequently value those
derivatives appropriately.(5)
    
    Depreciation, depletion and amortization We did not establish and maintain
effective controls to ensure completeness and accuracy of depreciation, depletion and
amortization expense. Specifically, effective controls were not designed and in place to
calculate and review the depletion of oil and gas properties.(6)
    
    Impairment of oil and gas properties We did not establish and maintain effective
controls to ensure the accuracy and application of GAAP related to the capitalization of
costs related to oil and gas properties and the required evaluation of impairment of such
costs. Specifically, effective controls were not designed and in place to determine,
review and record the nature of items recorded to oil and gas properties and the
calculation of oil and gas property impairments.(7)
    
    Cash management We did not establish and maintain effective controls to
adequately segregate the duties over cash management. Specifically, effective controls
were not designed to prevent the misappropriation of cash.
