HIGHLIGHTS

--  The significant drop in commodity prices at the end of 2014 has had a
    continued negative impact on the energy sector in Canada. CSRI's
    response has been to defer capital spending at Farrell Creek/Altares and
    to maintain its financial flexibility. In doing so, the Corporation
    ended the first quarter 2015 in the enviable position of having positive
    working capital and no debt. In addition, CSRI has no current
    obligations on its Farrell Creek/Altares lands.
--  The downturn has had the positive effect of significant cost reductions
    for services. The Corporation is integrating these new costs into its
    capital expenditure plans to better assess future funding requirements.
--  The combined effects of industry activity, principally drilling and land
    sale results proximal to CSRI's lands, and of newly approved pipeline
    infrastructure, notably the TCPL North Montney Mainline crossing the
    Farrell Creek/Altares lands, continue to enhance the Corporation's
    potential as a meaningful contributor to the natural gas supply system
    in northeastern British Columbia and Alberta.
