Forward Looking Statements 1

3 In the Beginning…  Cheniere Energy was formed in 1996 to fund an exploration project, “the Cameron Project”, to evaluate, explore and develop drilling prospects in southwest Louisiana  Two gas discoveries were made – “Redfish” and “Stingray”  By 1999 the company had licensed 8,800 square miles of seismic data and reprocessed this data using cutting edge technology  By the late 1990’s natural gas drilling was yielding less production per well at higher costs suggesting gas production could not sustain the growing U.S. demand and providing an opportunity to import LNG  By 2001 Cheniere had assembled an experienced LNG project development team to evaluate the economic feasibility of delivering LNG to North America  This team then began to evaluate suitable locations to construct one of the first new LNG import terminals in more than 25 years

23 Expanding U.S. Natural Gas Exports Will…  Promote stability in domestic natural gas pricing by raising domestic natural gas productive capacity; and  Stimulate state, regional and national economies through job creation, increased economic activity and tax revenues, including the direct creation of approximately 3,000 engineering and construction jobs during the course of the project and, indirectly, 30, ,000 permanent jobs in the exploration and production sector  Reduced reliance on foreign sources of oil by promoting domestic production of petroleum and by encouraging the drilling of wells in areas where there is a significant amount of natural gas associated with crude oil and natural gas liquids (“NGL”)

24 Expanding U.S. Natural Gas Exports Will…  Improve U.S. balance of payments through the exportation of approximately 2 Bcf/d of natural gas valued at approximately $5 billion, and the displacement of $1.7 billion in NGL imports thus furthering the President’s National Export Initiative  Promote liberalization of the global natural gas trade through the fostering of a global, liquid market, based on prices cleared in free and openly traded natural gas markets  Advance national security and the security of U.S. allies through diversification of global natural gas supplies  Increase economic trade and ties with foreign nations, including neighboring countries in the Americas, and displace environmentally damaging fuels in those countries
