WHEREAS, pursuant to the Separation and Distribution Agreement entered into between Forest, Lone Pine, and Canadian Forest Oil Ltd. (“CFOL”), an Alberta corporation, dated May 25, 2011 (the “Separation and Distribution Agreement”), Forest and Lone Pine currently contemplate that:

(a) Pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization attached hereto as Annex A, CFOL will effect two amalgamations that will have the substantive effect of converting the CFOL common shares into two classes of stock (the “Recapitalization”);

(b) Forest will contribute to Lone Pine its approximate 86.6% ownership interest in CFOL and its 100% direct and indirect ownership interest in each of Wiser Oil LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Wiser Oil”) and Wiser Delaware LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Wiser Delaware” and, together with Wiser Oil, the “Wiser Entities”), which collectively own the remaining ownership interests in CFOL. As a result of these contributions (collectively, the “Contribution”), Lone Pine will directly and indirectly own 100% of CFOL and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Forest Oil Energy Corporation, an Alberta corporation;

(d) Forest will distribute all of its Lone Pine capital stock to its stockholders (the “Distribution”);

WHEREAS, the parties intend that for United States federal income tax purposes the Recapitalization will qualify as tax-free reorganizations pursuant to Sections 368(a)(1)(E) and (F) of the Code (as defined herein);

WHEREAS, the parties intend that for United States federal income tax purposes the Contribution and the Distribution, taken together, will qualify as a tax-free reorganization under Sections 355 and 368(a)(1)(D) of the Code (as defined herein);

WHEREAS, the parties wish to (a) provide for the payment of Tax Liabilities and entitlement to refunds thereof, allocate responsibility for, and cooperation in, the filing of Tax Returns and provide for certain other matters relating to Taxes, and (b) set forth certain covenants and indemnities relating to the preservation of the tax-free status of the Contribution and the Distribution under Sections 355 and 368(a)(1)(D) of the Code (as defined herein).

COVENANTS

6.1 General. The parties intend for the Contribution and the Distribution, taken together, to qualify as a reorganization under Sections 355 and 368(a)(1)(D) of the Code pursuant to which gain or loss is not recognized by Forest or its stockholders (such non-recognition, the “Tax-Free Status”).

6.2 Lone Pine Restricted Actions. During the Restricted Period, Lone Pine will not, nor will Lone Pine permit any member of the Lone Pine Group or any other Person directly or indirectly controlled by Lone Pine to:

(a) liquidate, voluntarily dissolve, merge, convert, or consolidate with or into another entity;

(b) issue any capital stock or other equity interests, options, or rights to acquire capital stock or other equity interests, or any other instruments convertible into or exchangeable for, or that could otherwise result in the issuance of, capital stock or other equity interests (collectively, “Capital Stock”); provided, however, that, after the Distribution, Lone Pine may issue up to 10% of the amount of Capital Stock outstanding immediately after the IPO pursuant to the Lone Pine Resources Inc. 2011 Stock Incentive Plan;

(d) recapitalize, reclassify, or alter the voting rights of one or more shares of Capital Stock;

(e) increase or decrease the number of members of the board of directors of Lone Pine or any pre-Distribution Lone Pine subsidiary, alter in any way the procedures for the nomination, election, and termination of members of the board of directors, or expand, contract, or otherwise modify the rights of the board of directors to govern the affairs of Lone Pine, in each case, in a manner that differs from the manner set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of Lone Pine or any pre-Distribution Lone Pine subsidiary in effect as of the date of the Contribution if any such modification could reasonably be expected to cause the Distribution to be taxable under Section 355 of the Code;

(f) sell, exchange, distribute, or otherwise dispose of any pre-Distribution Lone Pine subsidiary or all or a substantial part of the assets of any of the trades or businesses conducted by Lone Pine and the pre-Distribution Lone Pine subsidiaries (other than sales or transfers of inventory in the ordinary course of business) prior to the Distribution, or discontinue or cause to be discontinued the active conduct of any such trade or business;

(g) enter into any negotiations, agreements, understandings, or arrangements with respect to any of the foregoing; or

(h) take, or fail to take, any action that could reasonably be expected to cause the Distribution to fail to obtain the Tax-Free Status (any such action or failure to act, together with any action set forth in Sections 6.2(a)—(g), a “Restricted Action”); provided, however, that the term “Restricted Action” does not include any action, or failure to act, that is contemplated by the terms of the Separation and Distribution Agreement.

6.3 Permitted Actions. Notwithstanding Section 6.2, Lone Pine will be permitted to take a Restricted Action if, prior to taking such action, Lone Pine provides notification to Forest of its plans with respect to such action, and promptly and completely responds to any inquiries by Forest with respect to such action and either:

(a) Lone Pine obtains a private letter ruling with respect to such Restricted Action from the IRS (a “Ruling”) that is reasonably satisfactory to Forest on the basis of facts and representations consistent with the facts at the time of such action, that such action will not affect the Tax-Free Status as contemplated by the U.S. Tax Opinion; provided, however, that Lone Pine will not submit any request for such Ruling if Forest determines in good faith that filing such request might have a materially adverse affect upon Forest;

(b) Lone Pine obtains an unqualified opinion reasonably acceptable to Forest of an independent nationally recognized law firm or accounting firm approved by Forest (a “Subsequent Opinion”), on the basis of facts and representations consistent with the facts at the time of such action, that such action will not affect the Tax-Free Status as contemplated by the U.S. Tax Opinion; or

6.4 General 355(e) Covenant. Without in any manner limiting Section 6.2 above, during the Restricted Period, Lone Pine will not take, or fail to take, nor will Lone Pine permit any of its affiliates to take, or fail to take, any action that would result in a more than immaterial possibility that the Distribution would be treated as part of a plan pursuant to which one or more Persons acquire, directly or indirectly, Lone Pine stock representing a “50-percent or greater interest” within the meaning of Section 355(e)(4) of the Code (any such action or failure to act, a “Potential Disqualifying Action”), unless, prior to taking the Potential Disqualifying Action, (i) Lone Pine delivers to Forest a Ruling or a Subsequent Opinion that is reasonably satisfactory to Forest, in either case, to the effect that the Potential Disqualifying Action will not cause the Tax-Free Status to cease to apply to the Distribution, or (ii) Lone Pine obtains the prior written consent of Forest.

6.5 Notice of Subsequent Information. Lone Pine and its affiliates will furnish Forest with a copy of any document or information that reasonably could be expected to have an impact on the Tax-Free Status of the Distribution.

6.6 Cooperation Related to the Tax-Free Status of the Distribution.

(a) Forest will cooperate with Lone Pine, and will take (or refrain from taking) all such actions as Lone Pine may reasonably request in connection with obtaining any Ruling or Subsequent Opinion referred to in Sections 6.3 and 6.4; provided, however, that Lone Pine shall reimburse Forest for all expenses incurred by Forest in connection with such cooperation. Such cooperation includes providing any information, representations and/or covenants reasonably requested by Lone Pine (or their counsel) to enable Lone Pine to obtain and maintain either a Ruling or a Subsequent Opinion. From and after any date on which Forest, Lone Pine, or any of their respective affiliates makes any representation or covenant to counsel for purposes of obtaining a Subsequent Opinion or to the IRS for the purpose of obtaining a Ruling and (with respect solely to any representation given) until the Restricted Period ends (or such later date as may be agreed upon at the time such representation is made), the party making such representation or covenant will take no action that would cause such representation to be untrue or covenant to be breached unless both parties determine, in their reasonable discretion, which discretion shall be exercised in good faith solely to preserve the Tax-Free Status of the

Distribution, that such action would not cause the Tax-Free Status to cease to apply to the Distribution. Such representations and warranties, once made in writing, will be considered Tax Materials subject to the provisions of Section 5.1.

(b) Without limiting Forest’s approval rights set forth in Section 6.3 and Section 6.4, if Lone Pine receives a Subsequent Opinion or Ruling, Lone Pine shall promptly, and in any event within two (2) business days after the receipt of the Subsequent Opinion or Ruling, provide a copy of such Subsequent Opinion or Ruling to Forest to the extent Forest has not otherwise been provided with a copy.

(c) Lone Pine may not file any request for a Ruling with respect to the Tax-Free Status of the Distribution without the prior written consent of Forest, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

6.7 Tax Reporting. Each of Forest and Lone Pine covenants and agrees that it will not take, and will cause its respective affiliates to refrain from taking, any position on a Tax Return that is inconsistent with the Tax-Free Status of the Contribution and Distribution.

6.8 Tax Assistance and Cooperation.

(a) Cooperation. Forest and Lone Pine will each cooperate fully (and each will cause its respective affiliates to cooperate fully) with all reasonable requests from the other party in connection with the preparation and filing of Tax Returns, claims for refund and Audits concerning issues or other matters covered by this Agreement. The party requesting assistance hereunder shall reimburse the other for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in providing such assistance. Such cooperation will include, without limitation:

(i) the retention until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, and extensions, if any, thereof, and the provision upon request, of Tax Returns, books, records (including information regarding ownership and Income Tax basis of property), documentation and other information relating to the Tax Returns, including accompanying schedules, related work papers, and documents relating to rulings or other determinations by Tax Authorities;

(ii) the execution of any document that may be necessary or reasonably helpful in connection with any Audit, or the filing of a Tax Return or refund claim by a member of the Forest Group or the Lone Pine Group, including certification, to the best of a party’s knowledge, of the accuracy and completeness of the information it has supplied; and

(iii) the use of the party’s best efforts to obtain any documentation that may be necessary or reasonably helpful in connection with any of the foregoing. Each party will make its employees and facilities available on a reasonable and mutually convenient basis in connection with the foregoing matters.

(b) Failure to Perform. If a party fails to comply with any of its obligations set forth in Section 6.8(a) upon reasonable request and notice by the other party, and such failure results in the imposition of additional Taxes, the nonperforming party will be liable in full for such additional Taxes.

(c) Retention of Records. A party intending to dispose of documentation of Forest (or any Forest affiliate) or Lone Pine (or any Lone Pine affiliate), including without limitation, books, records, Tax Returns and all supporting schedules and information relating thereto prior to the expiration of the statute of limitations (including any waivers or extensions thereof) of the taxable year or years to which such documentation relates, shall provide written notice to the other party describing the documentation to be destroyed or disposed of sixty (60) business days prior to taking such action. The other party may arrange to take delivery of the documentation described in the notice at its expense during the succeeding sixty (60) day period.

ARTICLE VII

PAYMENTS

7.1 Estimated Tax Payments. As requested by Forest, Lone Pine shall promptly, but not later than the date immediately preceding each Estimated Tax Installment Date with respect to a taxable period for which a Consolidated Return or a Combined Return will be filed, pay to Forest on behalf of the Lone Pine Group an amount equal to the amount of any estimated Separate Tax Liability that Lone Pine would have otherwise been required to pay to a Tax Authority on such Estimated Tax Installment Date.

7.2 True-Up Payments. Not later than fifteen (15) days following the provision of the Separate Tax Liability computation to Lone Pine as provided in Section 3.3, Lone Pine will pay to Forest, or Forest will pay to Lone Pine or apply as a credit against future Tax Liability, as appropriate, an amount equal to the difference, if any, between the Lone Pine Separate Tax Liability and the aggregate amount paid by Lone Pine with respect to such period under Section 7.1.

7.3 Redetermination Amounts. In the event of a redetermination of any Tax Item reflected on any Tax Return described in Section 2.1(a)(i) (other than Tax Items relating to Transaction Taxes), as a result of a refund of Taxes paid, a Final Determination or any settlement or compromise with any Tax Authority which may affect Lone Pine’s Separate Tax Liability, Forest will prepare a revised pro forma Tax Return for the relevant taxable period reflecting the redetermination of such Tax Item as a result of such refund, Final Determination, settlement, or compromise. Lone Pine shall pay to Forest, or Forest shall pay to Lone Pine, as appropriate, an amount equal to the difference, if any, between the Separate Tax Liability based on such revised pro forma Tax Return and the Separate Tax Liability for such period as originally computed pursuant to this Agreement.

7.4 Payments Under this Agreement. In the event that one party (the “Owing Party”) is required to make a payment to another party (the “Owed Party”) pursuant to this Agreement, then such payments will be made according to this Section 7.4.

(a) General. All payments shall be made to the Owed Party within the time prescribed for payment in this Agreement, or if no period is prescribed, within twenty (20) days after delivery of written notice of payment owing together with a computation of the amounts due.

(b) Treatment of Payments. Unless otherwise required by any Final Determination, the Forest Group and the Lone Pine Group agree to treat (i) any payment required by this Agreement as either a contribution by Forest to Lone Pine or a distribution by Lone Pine to Forest, as the case may be, occurring immediately prior to the Distribution, and (ii) any payment of interest or non-federal Taxes by or to a Tax Authority as taxable or deductible, as the case may be, to the party entitled under this Agreement to retain such payment or required under this Agreement to make such payment.

(c) Interest. Payments pursuant to this Agreement that are not made within the period prescribed in this Agreement (the “Payment Period”) and that are not otherwise setoff against amounts owed by one party to the other party will bear interest for the period from and including the date immediately following the last date of the Payment Period through and including the date of payment at a per annum rate equal to the applicable rate for large corporate underpayments set forth in Section 6621(c) of the Code. Such interest will be payable at the same time as the payment to which it relates and will be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 days and the actual number of days for which due.

ARTICLE VIII

AUDITS AND TAX PROCEEDINGS

8.1 In General. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the party responsible for filing a Tax Return pursuant to Article II of this Agreement (the “Filing Party”) will have the exclusive right, in its sole discretion, to control, contest, and represent the interests of Forest, any member of the Forest Group, Lone Pine, and any member of the Lone Pine Group in any Audit relating to such Tax Return and to resolve, settle or agree to any deficiency, claim or adjustment proposed, asserted or assessed in connection with or as a result of any such Audit. The Filing Party’s rights will extend to any matter pertaining to the management and control of an Audit, including execution of waivers, choice of forum, scheduling of conferences and the resolution of any Tax Item. Any costs incurred in handling, settling, or contesting an Audit will be borne by the Filing Party. The Filing Party will not settle any Audit they control concerning a Tax Item of a Pre-Distribution Taxable Period on a basis that would materially increase a Tax Liability of the non-Filing Party with respect to a Pre-Distribution Taxable Period without obtaining such non-Filing Party’s consent, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld.

8.2 Notice. Within ten (10) days after a party receives a written notice from a Tax Authority of a proposed adjustment to a Tax Item for a Pre-Distribution Taxable Period (irrespective of whether such proposed adjustment would reasonably be expected to give rise to an indemnification obligation or other liability (including a liability for Tax) under this Agreement), such party shall notify the other party of such proposed adjustment, and thereafter shall promptly forward to the other party copies of notices and material communications with any Tax Authority relating to such proposed adjustment; provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice will not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Agreement except to the extent that such Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure.

8.3 Control of Transaction Tax Proceedings. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, Forest will control all activities and strategic decisions with respect to any Tax proceedings relating to Transaction Taxes.

ARTICLE IX

INDEMNIFICATION

9.1 Forest’s Indemnification Obligations. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Forest will indemnify and hold harmless Lone Pine and any member of the Lone Pine Group and any Lone Pine subsidiary for all Tax Liabilities (and any loss, cost, fine, penalty, damage or other expense of any kind, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in connection therewith) attributable to (i) any Taxes of Forest or any member of the Forest Consolidated Group imposed upon Lone Pine by reason of Lone Pine being severally liable for such Taxes pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 or any analogous provision of state or local law; (ii) Forest’s portion of any Transfer Taxes as set forth in Section 3.4; and (iii) any Taxes of Lone Pine or its affiliates resulting from the breach of any obligation or covenant of Forest under this Agreement.

9.2 Lone Pine’s Indemnification Obligations. Lone Pine will indemnify and hold harmless each of Forest and any member of the Forest Group for all Tax Losses (and any loss, cost, fine, penalty, damage or expense of any kind, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in connection therewith) attributable to (i) any Taxes of Lone Pine or the Lone Pine Group or any Lone Pine subsidiary for any Post-Distribution Taxable Period; (ii) Transaction Taxes, but only to the extent such Transaction Taxes arise from (w) a breach by Lone Pine or any member of the Lone Pine Group or any Lone Pine subsidiary of the representations, warranties, or covenants in this Agreement, (x) a Restricted Action or a Potential Disqualifying Action of Lone Pine or any member of the Lone Pine Group or any Lone Pine subsidiary, including any Restricted Action or Potential Disqualifying Action taken pursuant to Section 6.3 or Section 6.4 that results in the imposition of any Transaction Taxes, (y) the inaccuracy of any factual statements or representations made by Lone Pine in its U.S. Officer’s Certificate or in any subsequent officer’s certificate or similar document, or (z) an action taken by Lone Pine or any member of the Lone Pine Group or any Lone Pine subsidiary which causes the Contribution or the Distribution to not have Tax-Free Status; (iii) Lone Pine’s portion of any Transfer Taxes as set forth in Section 3.4; (iv) any Taxes resulting from the breach of any obligation or covenant of Lone Pine under this Agreement, and (v) any Canadian Tax Claim.

9.3 Indemnification Mechanics.

(a) If the Indemnifying Party is required to indemnify the Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article IX, the Indemnified Party shall submit its calculations of the amount required to be paid pursuant to this Article IX, showing such calculations in reasonably sufficient detail so as to permit the Indemnifying Party to understand the calculations. The Indemnifying Party shall pay to the Indemnified Party, no later than ten (10) business days after the Indemnifying Party receives the Indemnified Party’s calculations, the amount that the Indemnifying Party is required to pay the Indemnified Party under this Article IX; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party will not be required to make the indemnification payment

if the Indemnifying Party disagrees with such calculations. In such case, the Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party of its disagreement in writing within ten (10) business days of receiving such calculations. Any disagreement with respect to such indemnification payment will be resolved pursuant to Section 10.1.

(b) Any claim under this Article IX shall be made no later than sixty (60) days after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations for assessment of such Tax Liability.

(c) The amount of any indemnification payment with respect to any Tax Liability will be reduced by any current Tax Benefits actually realized by the Indemnified Party in respect of such Tax Liability by the end of the taxable year in which the indemnity payment is made. The calculation of such Tax Benefit shall be included in the calculation required to be submitted pursuant to Section 9.3(a). If any indemnification payment hereunder is determined to be taxable to the Indemnified Party by any Tax Authority, the indemnity payment payable by the Indemnifying Party will be increased as necessary to ensure that, after all required Taxes on the indemnity payment are paid (including Taxes applicable to any increases in the indemnity payment under this Section 9.3(c)), the Indemnified Party receives the amount it would have received if the indemnity payment was not taxable.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if a Tax Authority in Canada makes a claim against Forest or any member of the Forest Group for Canadian Taxes arising from or otherwise payable with respect to the Canadian Transactions (“Canadian Tax Claim”), Lone Pine shall promptly pay to the relevant Tax Authority or reimburse Forest to the extent Forest initially remits the Canadian Taxes to the relevant Tax Authority the amount of any Canadian Taxes and other costs required to be paid or deposited prior to or in connection with the contest of such Canadian Tax Claim, and shall pay or reimburse Forest on a current basis for all costs (including fees of attorneys, accountants and experts) of contesting such claim; provided, however, that Forest shall pay $28,367,810 CAN of Canadian withholding taxes imposed on Forest as a result of the CFOL Stock Dividend (as defined in Annex A) and such payment shall not constitute a Canadian Tax Claim. Forest shall have the right to control the contest of such Canadian Tax Claim but shall keep Lone Pine informed as to the details of the contest and allow Lone Pine to participate fully, at Lone Pine’s sole expense, in the handling of the contest. Lone Pine shall cooperate fully as and to the extent reasonably requested by Forest in connection with the contest of such claim. Such cooperation shall include the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to the Canadian Transactions and such Canadian Tax Claim, and making the Lone Pine employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation related to the contest of such claim. Forest shall not settle or compromise such Canadian Tax Claim without the consent of Lone Pine, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Promptly after the settlement or resolution of such a Canadian Tax Claim, Lone Pine shall pay to the Canadian Tax Authority or reimburse Forest for all amounts payable in settlement or resolution of such claim. Any indemnity payment made to Forest with respect to a Canadian Tax Claim will be made without reduction for any Tax Benefit that may be realized with respect to the payment of Canadian Taxes attributable to such Canadian Tax Claim.

ARTICLE X

MISCELLANEOUS

10.1 Dispute Resolution. In the event that Forest and Lone Pine disagree as to the amount or calculation of any payment to be made under this Agreement, or the interpretation or application of any provision under this Agreement, the parties will attempt in good faith to resolve such dispute. If such dispute is not resolved within sixty (60) business days following the commencement of the dispute, Forest and Lone Pine will jointly retain an Independent Firm, reasonably acceptable to both parties, to resolve the dispute; provided, however, that in order to pursue any such dispute resolution under this Section 10.1, the Owing Party shall either (i) first pay to the Owed Party, or place in an escrow reasonably satisfactory to the Owed Party pending resolution of such dispute, an amount equal to the payment which is the subject of such dispute, or (ii) deliver to the Owed Party a written opinion of an independent law or accounting firm reasonably acceptable to both parties, substantially to the effect that with respect to such dispute the Owing Party is more likely than not to prevail in its entirety in the dispute resolution proceeding. The Independent Firm will act as an arbitrator to resolve all points of disagreement and its decision will be final and binding upon all parties involved. Following the decision of the Independent Firm, Forest and Lone Pine will each take or cause to be taken any action necessary to implement the decision of the Independent Firm. The fees and expenses relating to the Independent Firm will be borne by the party that does not prevail in the dispute resolution proceeding. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the dispute resolution provisions set forth in this Section 10.1 will not be applicable to any disagreement between Forest and Lone Pine relating to Transaction Taxes or Transaction Tax proceedings.

10.2 Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without reference to its conflicts of laws principles.

10.3 Changes in Law. Any reference to a provision of the Code or a law of another jurisdiction will include a reference to any applicable successor provision or law. If, due to any change in applicable law or regulations or their interpretation by any court of law or other governing body having jurisdiction subsequent to the date of this Agreement, performance of any provision of this Agreement or any transaction contemplated thereby becomes impracticable or impossible, the parties hereto will use their commercially reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such provision.

information to any other Person, except its directors, officers, employees, auditors, attorneys, financial advisors, bankers and other consultants who will be advised of and agree to be bound by the provisions of this Section 10.4. Each party will be deemed to have satisfied its obligation to hold confidential information concerning or supplied by the other party if it exercises the same care as it takes to preserve confidentiality for its own similar information.

10.5 Amendment, Modification, or Termination. This Agreement may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated only by a written agreement signed by all of the parties hereto; provided, however, that any indemnification obligations arising under Article IX of this Agreement for all taxable periods prior to any termination of this Agreement will survive until such indemnification obligations are satisfied in full.

ANNEX A

CANADIAN PLAN OF REORGANIZATION

The transactions set forth below (the “Reorganization Transactions”) constitute a plan of reorganization (the “Plan of Reorganization”) involving Canadian Forest Oil Ltd., an Alberta corporation (“CFOL”) and certain other newly-formed or existing entities. The Reorganization Transactions are being undertaken pursuant to Canadian tax and corporate law, and are as follows:

1. CFOL will form two unlimited liability companies under the laws of the Province of Alberta (“ULC 1” and “ULC 2”).

2. CFOL and ULC 1 will amalgamate under Canadian law to form “Amalco 1”. Pursuant to the amalgamation, (i) all of the CFOL common shares held by Forest Oil Corporation, a New York corporation (“Forest”), will be converted into one Amalco 1 common voting share (the “Amalco 1 Common Shares”) with a value approximately equal to the value of the CFOL stock held by Forest immediately before the amalgamation, (ii) all of the CFOL common shares held by Wiser Oil LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Wiser Oil”) will be converted into Amalco 1 preferred shares (the “Amalco 1 Preferred Shares”) with a value approximately equal to the value of the CFOL stock held by Wiser Oil immediately before the amalgamation, and (iii) all of the CFOL common shares held by Wiser Delaware LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Wiser Delaware”) will be converted into Amalco 1 Preferred Shares with a value approximately equal to the value of the CFOL stock held by Wiser Delaware immediately before the amalgamation.

3. Amalco 1 will distribute to Forest, with respect to Forest’s Amalco 1 Common Share, 99 newly issued Amalco 1 Common Shares (the “CFOL Stock Dividend”).

4. Amalco 1 will distribute to Forest a newly issued, non-interest bearing, demand note having a principal amount equal to the dollar value of the Amalco 1 Common Shares — determined by reference to the offering price of the Lone Pine common shares established in Step 8 — held by Forest immediately before this Step, less $1 (the “Demand Note”). The Demand Note will be issued and settled on the same day (see Step 6).

5. Forest will transfer the Demand Note, the Amalco 1 Common Shares, and all of its member interests in Wiser Oil and Wiser Delaware (the “Transferred Assets”) to Lone Pine in exchange for Lone Pine common shares and cash as described in Step 9. The number of Lone Pine common shares issued in this Step will be determined by reference to the offering price of the Lone Pine common shares established in Step 8.

6. Lone Pine will contribute the Demand Note to Amalco 1 in exchange for 1,723 newly issued Amalco 1 Common Shares.

7. Amalco 1 and ULC 2 will amalgamate under Canadian law to form “Amalco 2”. Pursuant to the amalgamation, (i) each Amalco 1 Common Share held by Lone Pine will be converted into one share of Amalco 2 Class A common stock with a value

approximately equal to the value of the Amalco 1 Common Shares held by Lone Pine immediately before this Step, (ii) the Amalco 1 Preferred Shares held by Wiser Oil will be converted into 252 shares of Amalco 2 Class B common stock with a value approximately equal to the value of the Amalco 1 Preferred Shares held by Wiser Oil immediately before this Step, and (iii) the Amalco 1 Preferred Shares held by Wiser Delaware will be converted into 31 shares of Amalco 2 Class B common stock with a value approximately equal to the value of the Amalco 1 Preferred Shares held by Wiser Delaware immediately before this Step.

8. Lone Pine will issue Lone Pine common shares to the public, which, together with the issuance of Lone Pine common shares pursuant to its stock incentive plan, will represent no more than 19.9% of the vote and value of its sole class of stock outstanding (the “IPO”).

9. Lone Pine will transfer to Forest a portion of the proceeds from the IPO (the “Transferred Proceeds”). Forest will use the Transferred Proceeds to retire a portion of its public debt in December 2011. No Lone Pine shares will be redeemed, repurchased, or cancelled as part of this Step.

10. Lone Pine will contribute to Amalco 2, directly and through Wiser Oil and Wiser Delaware, the remaining proceeds from the IPO.

11. Amalco 2 will use the funds received from Lone Pine in Step 10 to repay the intercompany debt owing from Amalco 2 to Forest and to fund its working capital obligations. Any shortfall will be borrowed by Amalco 2 under its credit facility.

12. Forest, as agent for Amalco 1, will pay to the Canada Revenue Agency Amalco 1’s withholding obligation arising from the CFOL Stock Dividend distributed in Step 3.

United States Tax Consequences

The transactions involving the issuance, transfer, and settlement of the Demand Note set forth in Steps 4, 5, and 6 above are being undertaken to achieve a more efficient tax structure from a Canadian perspective, are transitory, and are intended to be disregarded for United States federal income tax purposes. Similarly, the CFOL Stock Dividend described in Step 3 is being undertaken to achieve a more efficient tax structure from a Canadian perspective and is intended to be disregarded for United States federal income tax purposes. The amalgamations described in Steps 2 and 7, in substance, merely convert the CFOL common shares into two classes of stock. As a result, Steps 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 7 are intended to qualify as reorganizations pursuant to Sections 368(a)(1)(E) and (F) of the Code (the “Recapitalization”).
