*All comparisons above are relative to the Company's December 31, 2012 reserves
and resources evaluation, provided by GLJ Petroleum Consultant Ltd. ("GLJ") in
a statement of reserves and contingent resources effective December 31, 2012
and included in the Company's United Kingdom prospectus.  When compared with
the GLJ report on reserves and contingent resources with effective date
December 31, 2012, prepared in accordance with the Canadian Oil and Gas
Evaluation Handbook ("COGE Handbook") and National Instrument 51-101 - Reserves
Data and Other Oil & Gas Information ("NI 51-101") (the "COGE Report"), issued
on June 28, 2013, and as included in the Company's final long-form prospectus
as dated and filed with the Alberta Securities Commission on July 2, 2013, the
2013 year-end oil and gas reserve and contingent resource evaluation represents
the following percentage increases as compared to the COGE Report: For Gross
Lease Reserves: (i) 64% for 1P, (ii) 119% for 2P, and (iii) 111% for 3P; for
Caracal Net Entitlement Reserves: (i) 67% for 1P, (ii) 127% for 2P, and (iii)
107% for 3P; and for Net Present Value attributable to Reserves: (i) 24% for
1P, (ii) 61% for 2P, and (iii) 75% for 3P.

Gary Guidry, Chief Executive Officer of Caracal, said:
"We are pleased to report another year of significant growth in oil reserve
volumes on our Production Sharing Contracts ("PSC") in Chad. Since 2011 when
the PSCs were awarded, we have grown gross lease 2P Reserves volumes by 439%.
We look forward to delivering further growth as we continue to execute on our
extensive exploration, appraisal and development programs."

Reserves




Notes:

(1)    All of the Company's proved, probable and possible reserves have been
       classified as light and
       medium crude oil. The Company has no heavy crude oil. Based on current
       market conditions in
       Chad, neither reserves or values have been attributed to gas or natural
       gas liquid volumes.
       However, the Company has rights to monetise gas volumes and is currently
       discussing and
       assessing this market potential for the future.

(2)    Gross is the total marketable reserves assigned to the Company's
       concessions.

(3)    The Government of Chad initially elected to acquire a 25 percent
       participating interest in the Badila
       and Mangara EXAs before selling 10 percent to Glencore. McDaniel has
       assumed, for the purposes
       of estimating the Company's participating interest in any future EXAs
       which may be granted under
       each PSC, that the Government of Chad will elect to acquire a 25 percent
       participating interest in
       each EXA. Accordingly, the Company's and Glencore's participating
       interests have been assumed
       to be 50 percent and 25 percent, respectively, of the gross lease
       interest in future developments.

(4)    Net reserves are the Company's share of Cost Oil recovery and Profit
       Oil. A portion of the reported
       reserves will increase as oil prices decrease (and vice versa) as the
       barrels necessary to achieve
       cost recovery change with prevailing oil prices. Under the COGE
       Handbook, using the economic
       interest method, "Net" as depicted above is equivalent to "company net"
       and, in the particular
       case of the Company's PSCs, "company gross".

Notes:

(1)     All of the Company's contingent resources have been classified as light
        and medium crude oil. The Company has no heavy crude oil. Based on
        current market conditions in Chad, neither contingent resources or
        values
        have been attributed to gas or natural gas liquid volumes. However, the
        Company has rights to monetise gas volumes and is currently discussing
        and assessing this market potential for the future.

(2)     Gross is the total marketable contingent resources assigned to the

        which may be granted under each PSC, that the Government of Chad
        will elect to acquire a 25 percent participating interest in each EXA.
        Accordingly, the Company's and Glencore's participating interests
        have been assumed to be 50 percent and 25 percent, respectively,
        of the gross lease interest in future developments.

Notes:

(1)    All of the Company's proved, probable and possible reserves have been
       classified as light and medium
       crude oil. The Company has no heavy crude oil. Based on current market
       conditions in Chad, neither

Reserves & Resources - Additional Information:

Reserves Classification

The oil reserves estimates presented in this press release have been based on
the Canadian reserves definitions and guidelines prepared by the Standing
Committee on Reserves Definitions of the CIM (Petroleum Society) as presented
in the COGE Handbook. A summary of those definitions is presented below.

Reserves Categories

Reserves are estimated remaining quantities of oil and natural gas and related
substances anticipated to be recoverable from known accumulations, from a given
date forward, based on

·         analysis of drilling, geological, geophysical and engineering data;

·         the use of established technology; and

·         specified economic conditions, which are generally accepted as being
reasonable, and shall be disclosed.

Reserves are classified according to the degree of certainty associated with
the estimates.

·         Proved reserves are those reserves that can be estimated with a high
degree of certainty to be recoverable. It is likely that the actual remaining
quantities recovered will exceed the estimated proved reserves.

·         Probable reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain
to be recovered than proved reserves. It is equally likely that the actual
remaining quantities recovered will be greater or less than the sum of the
estimated proved plus probable reserves.

·         Possible reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain
to be recovered than probable reserves. It is unlikely that the actual
remaining quantities recovered will exceed the sum of the estimated proved plus
probable plus possible reserves. Other criteria that must also be met for the
categorization of reserves are provided in the COGE Handbook.

Development and Production Status

Each of the reserves categories (proved, probable and possible) may be divided
into developed and undeveloped categories:

·         Developed reserves are those reserves that are expected to be
recovered from existing wells and installed facilities or, if facilities have
not been installed, that would involve a low expenditure (for example, when
compared to the cost of drilling a well) to put the reserves on production. The
developed category may be subdivided into producing and non-producing.

·         Developed producing reserves are those reserves that are expected to
be recovered from completion intervals open at the time of the estimate. These
reserves may be currently producing or, if shut-in, they must have previously
been on production, and the date of resumption of production must be known with
reasonable certainty.

·         Developed non-producing reserves are those reserves that either have
not been on production, or have previously been on production, but are shut-in,
and the date of resumption of production is unknown.

·         Undeveloped reserves are those reserves expected to be recovered from
known accumulations where a significant expenditure (for example, when compared
to the cost of drilling a well) is required to render them capable of
production. They must fully meet the requirements of the reserves
classification (proved, probable, possible) to which they are assigned.

·         In multi-well pools it may be appropriate to allocate total pool
reserves between the developed and undeveloped categories or to subdivide the
developed reserves for the pool between developed producing and developed
non-producing. This allocation should be based on the estimator's assessment as
to the reserves that will be recovered from specific wells, facilities and
completion intervals in the pool and their respective development and
production status.

Levels of Certainty for Reported Reserves

The qualitative certainty levels referred to in the definitions above are
applicable to individual reserves entities (which refers to the lowest level at
which reserves calculations are performed) and to reported reserves (which
refers to the highest-level sum of individual entity estimates for which
reserves estimates are presented). Reported reserves should target the
following levels of certainty under a specific set of economic conditions:

·         at least a 90 percent probability that the quantities actually
recovered will equal or exceed the estimated proved reserves. This category of
reserves can also be denoted as 1P;

·         at least a 50 percent probability that the quantities actually
recovered will equal or exceed the sum of the estimated proved plus probable
reserves. This category of reserves can also be denoted as 2P; and

·         at least a 10 percent probability that the quantities actually
recovered will equal or exceed the sum of the estimated proved plus probable
plus possible reserves. This category of reserves can also be denoted as 3P.
Additional clarification of certainty levels associated with reserves estimates
and the effect of aggregation is provided in the COGE Handbook.

Contingent Resources Classification

The assessment of the contingent resources in this press release were based on
the resource definitions presented in the COGE Handbook Section 5 and are
restated below.

Contingent resources are defined as those quantities of petroleum estimated, as
of a given date, to be potentially recoverable from known accumulations using
established technology or technology under development, but which are not
currently considered to be commercially recoverable due to one or more
contingencies. Contingencies may include factors such as economic, legal,
environmental, political and regulatory matters, or a lack of markets. It is
also appropriate to classify as contingent resources the estimated discovered
recoverable quantities associated with a project in the early evaluation stage.
Contingent resources are further classified in accordance with the level of
certainty associated with the estimates and may be sub-classified based on
project maturity and/or characterized by their economic status.

Uncertainty Categories

Estimates of resources always involve uncertainty, and the degree of
uncertainty can vary widely between accumulations/projects and over the life of
a project. Consequently, estimates of resources should generally be quoted as a
range according to the level of confidence associated with the estimates. An
understanding of statistical concepts and terminology is essential to
understanding the confidence associated with resources definitions and
categories. The range of uncertainty of estimated recoverable volumes may be
represented by either deterministic scenarios or a probability distribution.
Resources should be provided as low, best and high estimates, as follows:

·         Low Estimate - This is considered to be a conservative estimate of
the quantity that will actually be recovered. It is likely that the actual
remaining quantities recovered will exceed the low estimate. If probabilistic
methods are used, there should be at least a 90 percent probability (P90) that
the quantities actually recovered will equal or exceed the low estimate.

·         Best Estimate - This is considered to be the best estimate of the
quantity that will actually be recovered. It is equally likely that the actual
remaining quantities recovered will be greater or less than the best estimate.
If probabilistic methods are used, there should be at least a 50 percent
probability (P50) that the quantities actually recovered will equal or exceed
the best estimate.

·         High Estimate - This is considered to be an optimistic estimate of
the quantity that will actually be recovered. It is unlikely that the actual
remaining quantities recovered will exceed the high estimate. If probabilistic
methods are used, there should be at least a 10 percent probability (P10) that
the quantities actually recovered will equal or exceed the high estimate.

Contingent Resource Categories

For Contingent Resources, the general cumulative terms low/best/high estimates
are denoted as 1C/2C/3C respectively. No specific terms are defined for
incremental quantities within Contingent Resources.

Risks and Uncertainties

The recovery of resources is subject to significant risk and uncertainty. There
is no certainty that it will be commercially viable to produce any portion of
the contingent resources reported herein.  The contingent resource estimates in
this press release are not currently classified as reserves primarily due to
economic considerations. In order to develop Kibea, Maku, Tega, and Sako North
construction of a pipeline of approximately 500 kilometres at an estimated cost
of US$381 million is required.

BOE

This press release includes references to BOEs. References to "BOE" may be
misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A BOE conversion ratio of six
thousand cubic feet of gas to one barrel of oil is based on an approximation of
energy equivalence conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and
does not represent a value equivalency at the well head.

Cautionary Statements

Certain information contained in this press release constitutes forward-looking
information or statements including, without limitation, information and
statements respecting: drilling operations, anticipated cash flow, future
investment objectives, anticipated oil and gas pricing, expected inflation and
future foreign exchange rates. Statements relating to "reserves" and
"resources" are forward-looking information as they involve the implied
assessment, based on certain estimates and assumptions that, among others, the
reserves and resources described exist in the quantities predicted or
estimated. Forward-looking information and statements are often, but not
always, identified by the use of words such as "anticipate", "seek", "believe",
"expect", "hope", "plan", "intend", "forecast", "target", "project",
"guidance", "may", " might", "will", "should", "could", "estimate", "predict"
or similar words or expressions suggesting future outcomes or language
suggesting an outlook. By their very nature, forward-looking information and
statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, both general and specific,
and risks that predictions, forecasts, projections and other forward-looking
information and statements will not be achieved. We caution readers not to
place undue reliance on these statements as a number of important factors could
cause the actual results to vary materially from the forward-looking
information or statements. These factors include, but are not limited to: the
volatility of oil and gas prices; production and development costs; capital
expenditures; the imprecision of reserve and resource estimates and estimates
of recoverable quantities of oil, natural gas and liquids; the Company's
ability to replace and expand oil and gas reserves; environmental claims and
liabilities; incorrect assessments of value when making acquisitions or
dispositions; increases in debt service charges; the loss of key personnel; the
marketability of production; defaults by third party operators; unforeseen
title defects; fluctuations in foreign currency and exchange rates; inadequate
insurance coverage; compliance with environmental laws and regulations; changes
in tax and royalty laws; the Company's ability to access external sources of
debt and equity capital; and the Company's ability to obtain equipment in a
timely manner to carry out development activities. Further information
regarding these factors may be found under the headings "General Advisory",
"Reserves and Resources Advisory" and "Risk Factors" in the Company's final
Canadian prospectus dated July 2, 2013 available under the Company's profile on
SEDAR (www.sedar.com) and the final UK prospectus dated June 28, 2013 available
on the Company's website (to non-Canadian viewers). Readers are cautioned that
the foregoing list of factors that may affect future results is not exhaustive.
When relying on these forward-looking statements to make decisions with respect
to the Company, investors and others should also carefully consider information
set forth in the section "Forward-Looking Statements" of the Company's
prospectuses respecting the assumptions upon which the Company bases certain
forward-looking information and the uncertainties inherent in such assumptions.
The Company does not assume responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of
the forward-looking information or statements and such information and
statements should not be taken as guarantees of future outcomes. Subject to
applicable securities laws, the Company does not undertake any obligation to
revise this forward-looking information or these forward-looking statements to
reflect subsequent events or circumstances. This cautionary statement expressly
qualifies the forward-looking information and statements contained in this
press release. The estimates of reserves and future net revenue for individual
properties may not reflect the same level of confidence as estimates of
reserves and future net revenue for all properties, due to the effects of
aggregation.
