1. INTRODUCTION LONE PINE RESOURCES, ET AL 1.1 On September 25, 2013, on the application of Lone Pine Resources Canada Ltd. ( LPRC ), Lone Pine Resources Inc. ( LPRI ), Lone Pine Resources (Holdings) Inc. (LPR Holdings ), Wiser Delaware LLC ( Wiser Delaware ) and Wiser Oil Delaware, LLC ( Wiser Oil ) (collectively referred to as Lone Pine Resources or the Companies ), the Court of Queen s Bench of Alberta (the Court ) made an order (the Initial Order ) granting Lone Pine Resources protection from its creditors pursuant to the Companies Creditors Arrangement Act (the CCAA ). Under the Initial Order, PricewaterhouseCoopers Inc. ( PwC ) was appointed monitor of the Companies (the Monitor ). 1.2 On October 18, 2013, the Companies sought and obtained an order granting recognition of these proceedings as a foreign main proceeding (the Recognition Order ) from the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the US Court ) pursuant to Chapter 15 of the US Bankruptcy Code. Among other things, the Recognition Order recognises and enforces the CCAA Initial Order including any extensions, amendments, or modifications thereto, on a final basis, declares Canada to be the centre of main interest of each of the Companies, and recognises the CCAA Proceedings as a foreign main proceeding. 1.3 Pursuant to the Initial Order and the November 27, 2013 order of the Court, among other things, all creditors are stayed from commencing or continuing any proceedings against Lone Pine Resources until, and including, January 10, 2013. 1.4 The Monitor has filed four reports to date. Additionally, a pre-filing report dated September 24, 2013 was provided to the Court by PwC as proposed Monitor. Copies of the filed reports are available on the Monitor s website www.pwc.com/car-lpr. All prescribed materials filed by Lone Pine Resources and the Monitor relating to this CCAA proceeding are available to creditors and other interested parties in electronic format on the Monitor s website. The Monitor will make regular updates to the website containing documents filed with the Court not otherwise sealed. 1.5 This is the Monitor s fifth report to Court (the Fifth Report ) which has been prepared in respect of the Companies Court application on December 13, 2013. The Purpose of this report is to advise the Court of the following: 3

1.5.1 The Companies proposed Plan of Compromise and Arrangement dated December 6, 2013 (the Plan ) and estimated distributions thereunder; and 1.5.2 The Companies request for an Order convening meetings of creditors to consider and vote on the Plan (the Meeting Order ) and the Monitor s recommendations thereon. 1.6 Unless otherwise stated, all monetary amounts noted herein are expressed in Canadian dollars. Capitalized terms, not otherwise defined herein, are as defined in the Companies application materials for the Initial Application and the Comeback Application, including the Affidavit No. 4 of Tim S. Granger (the Fourth Granger Affidavit ), the Meeting Order, the Plan, and the Monitor s reports filed to date. 1.7 Certain information contained in this report is based on information obtained from the Applicant s books and records and discussions with management and staff. The Monitor has not independently verified the accuracy or completeness of such information; accordingly the Monitor does not express an opinion thereon. 2. PROPOSED PLAN OF ARRANGEMENT 2.1 Paragraph 3 of the Initial Order states that: The Applicants shall have the authority to file and may, subject to further order of this Court, file with this Court a plan of compromise or arrangement 2.2 In its application for the Meeting Order, the Companies are seeking the Court s approval of, among other things, the filing of the Plan and authorization to present the Plan to its creditors for consideration. A copy of the Plan is attached as exhibit 1 to the Fourth Granger Affidavit filed with the Court on December 6, 2013. 2.3 Generally, the Plan would effect a recapitalization of Lone Pine Resources by the unsecured creditors and conversion into equity of the majority of unsecured creditors (the Affected Unsecured Creditors ) holding Affected Unsecured Claims (as defined in the Plan), as well as the cancellation of all existing equity interests in the Companies, including the interest held by stockholders of LPRI. A summary of the key elements of the Plan is set out below. 2.4 An information circular (the Information Circular ) has been prepared by Lone Pine Resources, which explains in detail, among other things, the voting process in respect of 4

the Plan and the transactions and compromises to be affected under the Plan. A copy of the Information Circular will be attached as Schedule A to the Meeting Order. Creditor Classes for Affected Unsecured Creditors 2.5 For the purpose of voting on the Plan, a single class of all Affected Unsecured Claims of each of the five Lone Pine Resources entities will be formed. 2.6 Each class of Affected Unsecured Creditors will vote on the approval of the Plan for each respective Company. Plan approval for each Company will require that a majority in number (greater than 50%) and two thirds in value of each class of Affected Unsecured Creditors votes, or is deemed to vote, in favour of the Plan. 2.7 The following table outlines the five Affected Unsecured Claim classes: Affected Unsecured Creditors Class LPRC Class... LPR Holdings Class... LPRI Class... Wiser Oil Class... Wiser Delaware Class... Affected Unsecured Claims Affected Unsecured Claims against LPRC Affected Unsecured Claims against LPR Holdings Affected Unsecured Claims against LPRI Affected Unsecured Claims against Wiser Oil Affected Unsecured Claims against Wiser Delaware 2.8 The Affected Unsecured Claims under the Plan include all Affected Claims, as determined through the Claims Procedure, including the Claims of Noteholders in respect of the Senior Notes. 2.9 Noteholders shall be permitted to vote in respect of all five Affected Unsecured Creditor Classes, as the Senior Notes were either issued or guaranteed by each of the Companies, but each Affected Unsecured Creditor will receive only a single distribution under the Plan. 2.10 Pursuant to the CCAA, Equity Claimants shall not be entitled to vote on the Plan or receive any distributions thereunder. 5

Unaffected Creditors 2.11 The Plan does not affect or compromise the claims and rights of Unaffected Creditors, as Unaffected Creditors are expected to be paid in the normal course. As a result, Unaffected Creditors will not receive any consideration or distributions under the Plan and shall not be entitled to vote on the Plan at the Meetings in respect of their Unaffected Claims. The Unaffected Claims include, among other things, the following: 2.11.1 Claims secured by the CCAA Charges (including Claims of Critical Suppliers); 2.11.2 Any part of a Claim arising from a cause of action for which the Company is covered by insurance, but only to the extent of such coverage; 2.11.3 Post-Filing Trade Payables; 2.11.4 Claims of Joint Venture Partners; 2.11.5 Claims of the Syndicate; and 2.11.6 Claims in respect of an Employee Amount (other than in respect of Options). Treatment of Affected Unsecured Claims 2.12 The Plan contemplates that, in consideration for the distributions set out below, all Affected Unsecured Claims shall be fully, finally, irrevocably and forever compromised, settled, released, discharged, extinguished, cancelled and barred. 2.13 The Plan provides that Affected Unsecured Creditors holding an Affected Unsecured Claims equal to or less than $10,000 shall be considered Cash Pool Creditors (the Cash Pool Creditors ) for purposes of distributions under the Plan. 2.14 Affected Unsecured Creditors holding an Affected Unsecured Claim in excess of $10,000 may elect to reduce their Affected Unsecured Claim to $10,000 by making a Cash Election with the Monitor in accordance with the Meeting Order, in which case they shall receive the same distribution (pro-rated, as described below) under the Plan as Cash Pool Creditors. 2.15 Affected Unsecured Creditors with claims in excess of $10,000 who do not make a Cash Election shall receive newly issued shares in LPRC and LPRI. 6

Consideration to be distributed to Affected Unsecured Claims 2.16 The Plan provides the following consideration to be distributed to the Affected Unsecured Creditors in full and final satisfaction of all Affected Unsecured Claims: For Cash Pool Creditors: 2.16.1 Each Cash Pool Creditor will receive an amount from the Cash Pool equivalent to its pro-rata Share of the Cash Pool up to the value of its Allowed Affected Claim; and 2.16.2 The total amount payable to all Cash Pool Creditors is not to exceed $700,000. For Affected Unsecured Creditors (other than Cash Pool Creditors): 2.16.3 Each other Affected Unsecured Creditor (other than Cash Pool Creditors) with an Allowed Affected Unsecured Claim will receive: New Investment 2.16.3.1 Its pro-rata share of newly issued LPRC Class A Voting Common Shares; 2.16.3.2 One newly issued LPRI Class A Voting Common Share for each LPRC Class A Voting Common Share; and 2.16.3.3 If such Affected Unsecured Creditor is a Backstopper 1, its Backstopper s Pro-Rata Share of approximately $4 million (calculated as 4% of the New Investment Amount). 2.17 Each Qualifying Unsecured Creditor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase for cash, up to such Affected Unsecured Creditor s Pro-Rata Share, of a new investment in LPRC Preferred Shares in the aggregate amount of between $100 million to $110 million and corresponding LPRI Multiple Voting Shares (the New Investment ). 1 Per the Plan, "Backstoppers" means those Qualifying Unsecured Creditors that are Consenting Creditors and are parties to the Backstop Agreement (and any of their permitted assignees or designees), either by having executed the original Backstop Agreement as at September 24, 2013 or a Backstop Joinder on or before the Backstop Deadline, and "Backstopper" means any one of them. 7

2.18 For each LPRC Preferred Share purchased pursuant to the New Investment, a subscribing creditor will also acquire one LPRI Multiple Voting Common Share as part of the New Investment. The subscription price for the LPRI Multiple Voting Common Shares will be nominal (between $100 and $110 in the aggregate, depending on the final New Investment Amount for the LPRC Preferred Shares). 2.19 A Qualifying Unsecured Creditor means an Affected Unsecured Creditor that is not a Cash Pool Creditor and is an accredited investor as defined and contemplated by Rule 501 of Regulation D under the U.S. Securities Act. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission s definition of an accredited investor is attached as Appendix A. 2.20 In accordance with the proposed Meeting Order, each Affected Unsecured Creditor will receive a New Investment Subscription Form. In order to participate in the New Investment, a Qualifying Unsecured Creditor must return a duly executed New Investment Subscription Form to the Companies, the Monitor and Goodmans LLP, in accordance with the Plan and the Meeting Order by January 13, 2014. If the Plan is accepted, payment for the New Investment will be required five business days prior to the Anticipated Implementation Date, being January 31, 2014. 2.21 In addition, in order to become a Backstopper under the Backstop Agreement, any Qualifying Unsecured Creditor must return a duly executed Backstop Joinder to the Companies, the Monitor and Goodmans LLP, in accordance with the Plan and the Meeting Order by January 13, 2014. Each Backstopper agrees to invest additional amounts (on a pro-rata basis) in the event that less than 100% of Affected Unsecured Creditors participate in the New Investment. 2.22 Submission of a New Investment Subscription Form in accordance with the Plan and the Meeting Order shall constitute a subscription and commitment to participate in the New Investment by purchasing LPRC Preferred Shares and LPRI Multiple Voting Common Shares under the New Investment. 2.23 It is anticipated that on a fully diluted or as converted basis, the LPRC Preferred Shares will represent approximately 75% of the equity of LPRC on Plan implementation, depending on the quantum of the New Investment. 2.24 As a result of the LPRC Preferred Shares issued as part of the New Investment, it is anticipated that the LPRC Class A Voting Common Shares distributed to Affected 8

Unsecured Creditors will be diluted down to represent approximately 25% of the equity of LPRC on Plan implementation. 2.25 The redemption price of LPRC Preferred Shares and the LPRI Multiple Voting Common Shares will increase at a rate of 10% per year (the Accretion Rate ); which, if redeemed after Plan Implementation, will increase the fully diluted percentage of equity relative to the LPRC Class A Voting Common Shares issued on Plan implementation above 75%. 2.26 Similarly, due to the Accretion Rate on the LPRC Preferred Shares (and the LPRI Multiple Voting Common Shares), holders of LPRC Class A Voting Common Shares issued on Plan implementation will see their respective position diluted with the passage of time due to the increase in the redemption price of the LPRC Preferred Shares by 10% per year, which will lower the effective equity interest of the LPRC Class A Voting Shares by approximately 1% to 2% per year on a fully diluted basis. 2.27 The Monitor notes that the newly issued LPRC Preferred Shares, LPRI Multi Voting Shares and LPRC Class A Voting Common Shares will not be publicly listed on a securities exchange. As such, there can be no certainty that Affected Unsecured Creditors who receive these shares will be able to trade them. Existing shareholders and Equity Claimants 2.28 The Plan contemplates that on the Plan Implementation Date, all existing Equity Interests, including all existing shares of common stock of LPRI, shall be cancelled and extinguished and all Equity Claims shall be fully, finally, irrevocably and forever compromised, settled, released, discharged extinguished, cancelled and barred. 2.29 The Plan contemplates that Equity Claimants will not receive any consideration or distributions under the Plan. Releases 2.30 The Plan also provides for the release of the Released Parties from all claims relating to, among other things, the business and affairs of the Companies whenever or however conducted, the Recapitalization, the Plan, and the CCAA Proceedings. The Released Parties include the Companies, the Directors, the Officers, the Monitor and its Canadian and US legal advisors, the Note Indenture Trustee, the Consenting Creditors, the Backstoppers, the Agent, the Syndicate, the Company Advisors, and the Noteholder 9

Advisors. The Companies and its directors will not be released or discharged from any Unaffected Claim or Claim that is not permitted to be released pursuant to the CCAA. Other key Plan terms 2.31 The Plan includes a range of conditions precedent to implementation, which include, but are not limited to, the following: 2.31.1 The Court will have granted the CCAA Sanction order prior to January 17, 2014, and the Sanction Recognition Order in the US Chapter 15 will have been granted prior to January 31, 2014; 2.31.2 All conditions set out in the Support Agreement and Backstop Agreement shall have been satisfied or waived, and the Support Agreement and Backstop Agreement shall not have been terminated; 2.31.3 The Plan Implementation Date shall occur no later than February 15, 2014; 2.31.4 The Companies shall have made arrangements for the payment in full of all amounts owing in respect of the existing Facility; 2.31.5 The New Investment Funds shall have been deposited with the Monitor; and 2.31.6 LPR Canada shall have obtained a new credit facility on terms acceptable to the Companies and the Majority Initial Consenting Noteholders. 3. MONITOR S VIEWS ON THE PROPOSED PLAN 3.1 The Monitor s views on the fairness and reasonableness of the Plan, and the Monitor s detailed analysis of the value of the Companies various oil and gas properties and certain potential contingent claims, are discussed in the Monitor s Sixth Report, which is also dated December 10, 2013 (the Sixth Report ). A copy of the Monitor s Sixth Report is available on its website at www.pwc.com/car-lpr, and will also be included as an appendix to the Information Circular. 4. PROPOSED MEETING ORDER 4.1 Lone Pine Resources has requested that the Court grant the Meeting Order in the form attached to its application materials. 4.2 The proposed Meeting Order, if approved by this Court, among other things, 10

4.2.1 Accepts the filing of the Plan; 4.2.2 Authorizes the classification of creditors for purposes of voting on the Plan; 4.2.3 Authorizes and directs the Companies to call, hold and conduct meetings (the Meetings ) of Affected Unsecured Creditors to vote on a resolution to approve the Plan; 4.2.4 Authorizes and directs the mailing and distribution of the Affected Unsecured Creditors Meeting Materials and the Noteholder Meeting Materials; 4.2.5 Approves the procedures to be followed with respect to the Meetings of Affected Unsecured Creditors; and 4.2.6 Sets a date of the hearing of the Companies application for Court approval of the Plan. 4.3 The Meetings for the Affected Unsecured Creditors will be held individually for each of the following five Companies: 4.3.1 Lone Pine Resources Canada Ltd.; 4.3.2 Lone Pine Resources (Holdings) Inc.; 4.3.3 Lone Pine Resources Inc.; 4.3.4 Wiser Oil Delaware, LLC; and 4.3.5 Wiser Delaware LLC. 4.4 The Meetings will be held on January 6, 2014 at the offices of Bennett Jones LLP, 4500 Bankers Hall East, 855-2nd Street S.W., Calgary, Alberta. The Meetings for the Affected Unsecured Creditors will take place beginning at 10:00 a.m. (Calgary Time) as detailed in the Information Circular and the Notice to Affected Unsecured Creditors. 4.5 The Meeting Order directs that a representative of the Monitor will preside as chair of the Meetings and will decide all matters relating to the conduct of the Meetings, in accordance with the terms of the plan, the Meeting Order and further Orders of the Court. Voting 4.6 At the Meetings, the Chairperson shall direct a vote, by written ballot, on a resolution to approve the Plan and amendments thereto. 11

4.7 The only Persons entitled to vote on the resolution to approve the Plan at a Meeting are Affected Unsecured Creditors with Voting Claims against the applicable Company. With respect to Beneficial Noteholders, only the Beneficial Noteholders that have beneficial ownership of one or more Notes, and not Registered Noteholders or Participant Holders, shall be entitled to vote on the Plan. Voting in person 4.8 Any Affected Unsecured Creditor (including a Beneficial Noteholder) that is entitled to vote at one or more Meetings and that wishes to vote at one or more meetings in person must: 4.8.1 Duly complete and sign an Affected Unsecured Creditors' Proxy or a Noteholders' Proxy, as applicable; 4.8.2 Identify itself in the Affected Unsecured Creditors' Proxy or a Noteholders' Proxy, as applicable, as the Person with the power to attend and vote at the applicable Meeting(s) on behalf of such Affected Unsecured Creditor or Beneficial Noteholder, as the case may be; and 4.8.3 Deliver such Affected Unsecured Creditors' Proxy or Noteholders' Proxy, as the case may be, to the Monitor so that it is received on or before 3:00 p.m Calgary Voting by proxy Time on January 3, 2014. 4.9 Any Affected Unsecured Creditor (including a Beneficial Noteholder) that is entitled to vote at one or more Meetings and that wishes to appoint a nominee to vote on its behalf at one or more meetings must: 4.9.1 Duly complete and sign an Affected Unsecured Creditors' Proxy or a Noteholders' Proxy, as applicable; 4.9.2 Identify its desired nominee in the Affected Unsecured Creditors' Proxy or Noteholders' Proxy, as applicable, as the Person with the power to attend and vote at the applicable Meeting(s) on behalf of such Affected Unsecured Creditor; and 4.9.3 Deliver such Affected Unsecured Creditors' Proxy or Noteholders' Proxy, as the case may be, to the Monitor so that it is received on or before 3:00 p.m Calgary Time on January 3, 2014. 12

4.10 The Meeting Order provides that any Cash Pool Creditor shall be deemed to vote in favour of the Plan. The Monitor is not opposed to these provisions, but wishes to ensure that Affected Unsecured Creditors choosing to make either of these elections are aware of this implication. 4.11 Unaffected Creditors, holders of Affected Unsecured Claims in respect of which a Proof of Claim has been filed in accordance with the Claims Procedure Order and has been designated by the Applicants or the Monitor as an Equity Claim, Equity Claimants, and any other Person asserting Claims against the Applicants whose Claims do not constitute Affected Unsecured Claims on the Voting Record Date shall have no right to, and shall not, vote at the Meetings. Approval of the Plan 4.12 In order for the Plan to be accepted by the Affected Creditors, the Affected Creditors in each of the Voting Classes representing a majority in number and two-thirds in value of the Affected Creditors voting must vote in favour of the Plan. 4.13 The Meetings Order provides that if the Plan is approved by the requisite majorities of Affected Creditors at each of the Meetings, the Company shall seek this Court s approval of the Plan by way of an order (the Sanction Order ) at a hearing (the Sanction Hearing ) to be scheduled on January 9, 2014. 4.14 The Monitor shall report to the Court the results of any votes taken at the Meetings as soon as reasonably practicable after the Meetings. Notice to Affected Unsecured Creditors (other than Noteholders) 4.15 The Meeting Order directs that the Monitor shall, no later than the first business day following the date of the Meeting Order: 4.15.1 Deliver the Affected Unsecured Creditors Meeting Materials (as defined in the Meeting Order) by personal courier, personal delivery, or email, to each Affected Unsecured Creditor other than a Noteholder and/or an Unresolved Claim; and 4.15.2 Post an electronic copy of the Affected Unsecured Creditors Meeting Materials on its website. 13

Notice to Noteholders 4.16 The Meeting Order directs that the Monitor shall, no later than the first business day following the date of the Meeting Order: 4.16.1 Deliver the Noteholder Meeting Materials (as defined in the Meeting Order) by personal courier, personal delivery, or email, to: 4.16.1.1 The Note Indenture Trustee; 4.16.1.2 DTC; and 4.16.1.3 Each Person listed on the Registered Noteholder List; 4.16.2 Deliver by personal courier, personal delivery, or email to each Participant Holder a copy of the Instructions to Participant Holders together with that number of copies of the Noteholder Meeting Materials required by such Participant Holder for distribution to Unregistered Noteholders that are its customers or principals; and 4.16.3 Post an electronic copy of the Noteholder Meeting Materials on its website. 4.17 As the Court is aware, the CCAA does not legislate the notice period for a meeting of creditors. In the Monitor s experience such notice is typically in and around 21 days. The proposed Meeting Order provides for 24 days of notice from the date of the application for the Meeting Order. Accordingly, in the Monitor s view, the Meeting Order provides sufficient notice for the Meeting of Creditors. Cash Election 4.18 As discussed earlier in this report, the Plan allows Affected Unsecured Creditors holding Affected Unsecured Claims in an aggregate amount in excess of $10,000 to make a Cash Election to reduce the aggregate amount of such Allowed Affected Unsecured Creditor's Affected Unsecured Claim to $10,000. 4.19 Such an electing Affected Unsecured Creditors must return a duly executed Cash Election Form, which is included in the Affected Unsecured Creditor Meeting Materials, to the Companies and the Monitor on or before January 3, 2014. 14

New Investment Subscription 4.20 As discussed earlier in this report, the Plan allows Qualifying Unsecured Creditors with the right to elect to participate in the New Investment. In order to participate in the New Investment, a Qualifying Unsecured Creditor must return a duly executed New Investment Subscription Form to the Companies, the Monitor and Goodmans LLP, in accordance with the Plan and the Meeting Order by January 13, 2014. If the Plan is accepted, payment for the New Investment will be required five business days prior to the Anticipated Implementation Date, being January 31, 2014. 5.
