  4. New Entrants to Alaska • Apache - $34 B company, start-up 1954 • S-48, Canada, Egypt, North Sea, Australia • Buccaneer Alaska • Linc Energy

  5. Alaskan Clear & Equitable Share (ACES) • In 2007 the Alaskan Government introduced the ACES program to incent new entrants to explore within Alaska. This program takes the form of a rebate of between 45 - 65% of direct exploration costs and up to 55% on development costs. This is a significant incentive and substantially reduces the commercial discovery threshold. • On 19 April 2010 the Alaskan Legislature approved a significant amendment to Alaska’s AC ES program. The Governor • signed this legislation into law on May 10, 2010. Most significantly, the statutory amendments enacted with this legislation will establish a tax credit of up to US $25 million for new wells drilled into the pre-Tertiary strata of the Cook Inlet with a jack-up drilling rig. The new incentive provides for the following: • • If Buccaneer drills the first well in the Cook Inlet using a jack-up rig, it will be eligible to claim up to US $25 million of all drilling costs (including rig mobilization costs). • If it drills the second well, the claim will be US $22.5 million. • if its drills the third well, it is entitled to claim US $20 million. A company is eligible for only one of these incentives and is required to repay one-half (50%) the incentive equally over 10 years, but only if hydrocarbons are successfully produced. • On any subsequent well Buccaneer will still be eligible for the standard AC ES incentive of 45 – 65% of drilling and development costs. • The above incentives apply irrespective of the success of any well or development program.
