The consent solicitation seeks consent from the holders of the 2019 Notes (the "2019 Noteholders") to waive and amend certain provisions of the indenture for the 2019 Notes such that the Sale Transaction can be completed with consenting holders remaining as holders of their 2019 Notes post-closing. A consent fee of $5.00 per $1,000 principal amount of 2019 Notes is payable to those 2019 Noteholders who provide their consent, conditional on the Sale Transaction closing. The Sale Transaction will be completed regardless of the results of the consent solicitation, as the 2019 Notes of all non-consenting 2019 Noteholders will be redeemed immediately before the closing of the Sale Transaction.

The consent solicitation and notice of conditional redemption and related documents are available on Paramount's website at http://www.paramountres.com/investor-relations/the-musreaukakwa-disposition-documents.
