7 Helium Availability Secures Additional Revenues Long Term Estimated Reserves in Ground (depends on level of future natural gas extraction) Future Natural Gas extraction will generate sufficient volumes to satisfy future helium demand at current levels and ~4% CAGR Near Term Helium Contained in Natural Gas Production (Projected 2015 demand 9 BCF) Maximizing helium recovery from quantified natural gas vent streams would be sufficient to meet demand for the next 10 years and generate additional revenues for LNG processing plants BCF/year Source RecoveredVented U.S.  3.0Negligible Algeria Qatar1.4Negligible Russia0.6Unknown Canada00.5 Poland0.05Unknown Australia0.15Unknown R.O.W0.02Unknown 1 Cliffside Stored Reserve: 26BCF in 2005 – source US BLM

8 2- Store – if possible - crude helium in-ground for future use as in the Cliffside system in the U.S. “ Capturing ” Helium Molecules at the Source 1- Install a facility that processes helium-bearing natural gas currently being sent to areas that do not recover helium.

9 Recovering/Refining Crude Helium Contained in Natural Gas as a By-Product, Requires Additional Operating Cost of $20 to $30 per Thousand Cubic Feet which results to a Product Liquid Helium sold on a wholesale basis at $50 to $60 per Thousand Cubic Feet. Working Further down the Helium Value Chain Requires Very High Investments and a Creation of a Core Business Similar to Industrial Gas Companies. Improving Overall Profitability

12 Conclusion Helium, if Present in Native Natural Gas, Grants a Unique Opportunity to Natural Gas Processing, to Diversify from Oil & Gas Industry, and to Generate Additional Revenue. Oil & Gas Producers Will Want to Focus Resources on Finding and Producing Natural Gas rather than Have the End-User Refined Helium Market and its Expansion Default to Them. An Industrial Gas Company Provides: – a Collection of Assets and Services that Help Link Helium Supply with Demand – the Ability to Link the Oil & Gas Producer to the End- User in the Value Chain. – The Focus to Expand the Refined Helium Business
