Submission of bids

To be considered, Bids must be accompanied by a confirmation of operating experience that satisfies the Board that the Bidder, its parent company or an affiliated company has operated, or has been a joint operator, in the drilling of exploration wells in water depths greater than 800 m in the past 10 years. Confirmation of operating experience must be submitted in a sealed envelope marked “CONFIRMATION OF OPERATING EXPERIENCE FOR CALL FOR BIDS NS11-1,” to be opened prior to considering the bid.

Bids must be in the form attached as Appendix II to the Call for Bids and must be submitted in a separate sealed envelope marked “CALL FOR BIDS No. NS11-1 (Parcel # _ ),” to be opened if the confirmation of operating experience satisfies the Board. The Bid will not be considered if the confirmation of operating experience does not satisfy the Board. The Bid will remain sealed and will be returned to the bidder. Bids must be received by the Board before 4 p.m., Atlantic Time, January 10, 2012, at the following address: CALL FOR BIDS NS11-1, S. F. (Steve) Bigelow, Director, Resources and Rights, Canada-Nova Scotia Offshore Petroleum Board, T.D. Centre, 6th Floor, 1791 Barrington Street, Halifax, Nova Scotia B3J 3K9.

Each bid must be accompanied by a Bid Deposit in the amount of $10,000, in the form of a certified cheque or bank draft payable to the Receiver General for Canada.

The Bid Deposit will be returned, without interest, if the Work Deposit is posted within the time specified and any outstanding Environmental Studies Research Fund (ESRF) levies are paid as described below.

Bid Deposits will be returned to unsuccessful bidders, without interest, following the announcement of the winning bid and receipt of the Work Deposit by the successful bidder.

The failure of the successful bidder to post the Work Deposit within the specified time will result in forfeiture of the Bid Deposit and disqualification of the bid, and in that event the Board may, if it sees fit, award the Exploration Licence to the second highest bidder without making another Call for Bids.

Bid selection

Bidding on each parcel will be based solely on the amount of money proposed to be expended on the exploration of the respective parcel and on research and development and education and training within Period 1 of the term of the Exploration Licence (“Work Expenditure Bid”), determined in accordance with the schedule of Allowable Expenditures as defined in “Schedule B” of the Exploration Licence.

No other factors will be considered in selecting the winning bid and the Board is not obligated to accept any bid. The minimum bid per parcel that will be considered is $1,000,000 of work expenditure.

Activity authorization

Before carrying out any work or activity in the offshore area, an operator must first obtain an Operating Licence.

No activities related to the exploration for, development of or transportation of petroleum on the Lands can be conducted without a specific authorization issued by the Board. Operators are required to meet certain regulatory requirements before the Board can approve offshore petroleum–related activities. The regulatory framework which governs offshore petroleum operations consists of the Accord Acts, its regulations, and Board guidelines and policies.

Environment

In accordance with the legislation, prior to the authorization of any petroleum-related activities on the Lands, the operator must demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Board that such activities can be conducted in an environmentally safe manner. Special precautions, such as enhanced environmental assessments, more stringent mitigation measures and environmental effects monitoring may be required in some cases.

Upon issuance of the Exploration Licence, the successful bidder must pay ESRF levies under Part VII of the Canada Petroleum Resources Act, R.S.C. 1985, c. 36 (2nd Supp.), for the year in which the licence is issued and retroactive levies for the two preceding years. Thereafter, ESRF levies as fixed from time to time by the federal Minister of Natural Resources will be payable unless the interest owner surrenders the licence prior to the payment due date. All eight parcels are in ESRF Region No. 14, Scotian Slope. The 2009, 2010 and 2011 ESRF levy rates for all parcels would be as follows:

2009

Levy No. 21

$0.0696/ha

2010

Levy No. 22

$0.0636/ha

2011

Levy No. 23

$0.0000/ha

ESRF matters are not administered by the Board, but are the responsibility of the federal Minister of Natural Resources. ESRF levies are determined by multiplying the number of hectares of land included in the licence by the ESRF rate for the applicable region.

Term

The term of each Exploration Licence will be nine years, consisting of two consecutive periods referred to as Period 1 and Period 2.

Period 2 immediately follows Period 1 and consists of the balance of the nine-year term of the licence. In order to validate the licence for Period 2, the drilling of a well must be commenced within Period 1 and diligently pursued to termination in accordance with good oilfield practice.

Work deposit

The successful bidder will be required to post security for the performance of work in the amount of 25% of its Work Expenditure Bid. The successful bidder must post this Work Deposit within 30 days of being notified that its bid was successful, as a condition of issuance of the Exploration Licence.

This Work Deposit is refundable to the extent of 25% of approved Allowable Expenditures, as more particularly described in the form of Exploration Licence.

Work Deposits must be in the form of cash or promissory notes payable on demand to the Receiver General for Canada. The promissory note must be accompanied by a bank letter of guarantee issued by a Canadian chartered bank which states their agreement to honour on presentment for payment. The form of the promissory note and bank guarantee must be acceptable to the Board.

The interest owner is not obligated to perform work under the Licence. However, if the interest owner does not perform work in the full amount of its Work Expenditure Bid, the unrefunded balance of the Work Deposit will be forfeited to the Receiver General for Canada upon the expiry, surrender or cancellation of Period 1.

Rentals

No rentals are payable in respect of Period 1. Refundable rentals are payable annually during Period 2 at the following rates:

Year

Amount per Hectare

7

$2.50

8

$5.00

9

$7.50

Rentals will be refunded upon annual application to the Board to the extent of approved Allowable Expenditures incurred during the specific year of Period 2 as more particularly described in the form of Exploration Licence.

Indemnity

Interest Holders are required to at all times jointly and severally indemnify the Board and Her Majesty the Queen in right of Canada and in right of the Province of Nova Scotia against all actions, claims and demands that may be brought or made by any person by reason of anything done or omitted to be done under this Licence by, through or under the interest owner or an interest holder, in relation to those portions of the Lands with respect to which they hold shares and all costs that the Board or Her Majesty the Queen may incur in connection with any such action, claim or demand.

For purposes of this section, the expression “Her Majesty the Queen” shall not include any Crown corporation.

Written submissions

The public is invited to submit written comments to the Board on the Lands included in the Call for Bids. Such submissions will be considered by the Board before the issuance of Exploration Licences and must be received by the Board no later than 4 p.m. Atlantic Time, December 20, 2011, at the following address: S. F. (Steve) Bigelow, Director, Resources and Rights, Canada-Nova Scotia Offshore Petroleum Board, T.D. Centre, 6th Floor, 1791 Barrington Street, Halifax, Nova Scotia B3J 3K9, callforbids@cnsopb.ns.ca.

This notice contains a summary only of the terms and conditions of the Call for Bids. Interested persons should obtain a copy of the full text of the Call for Bids, which will prevail over this summary in the case of any conflict or inconsistency.
