Instructions
to Item 102
1. What
is required is such information as reasonably will inform investors as
to the suitability, adequacy, productive capacity and extent of utilization
of the facilities by the registrant. Detailed descriptions of the physical
characteristics of individual properties or legal descriptions by metes
and bounds are not required and shall not be given.
2. In
determining whether properties should be described, the registrant should
take into account both quantitative and qualitative factors. See
Instruction
1 to Item 101 of Regulation S-K.
3.
In the case of an
extractive enterprise, material information shall be given as to production,
reserves, locations, development and the nature of the registrant's interest.
If individual properties are of major significance to an industry segment:
A. More
detailed information concerning these matters shall be furnished; and
B. Appropriate
maps shall be used to disclose location data of significant properties
except in cases for which numerous maps would be required.
4. A. If
reserve estimates are referred to in the document, the staff of the Office
of Engineering, Division of Corporation Finance of the Commission, shall
be consulted. That Office may request that a copy of the full report of
the engineer or other expert who estimated the reserves be furnished as
supplemental information and not as part of the filing. See
Rule 418 of
Regulation C and
Rule 12b-4 of Regulation 12B with respect to the submission
to, and return by, the Commission of supplemental information.
B. If
the estimates of reserves, or any estimated valuation thereof, are represented
as being based on estimates prepared or reviewed by independent consultants,
those independent consultants shall be named in the document.
5. Estimates
of oil or gas reserves other than proved or, in the case of other extractive
reserves, estimates other than proved or probable reserves, and any estimated
values of such reserves shall not be disclosed in any document publicly
filed with the Commission, unless such information is required to be disclosed
in the document by foreign or state law; provided, however, that where
such estimates previously have been provided to a person (or any of its
affiliates) that is offering to acquire, merge or consolidate with the
registrant or otherwise to acquire the registrant's securities, such estimates
may be included in documents relating to such acquisition.
6. The
definitions in
Rule 4-10(a) of Regulation S-X shall apply to this Item
with respect to oil and gas operations.
