Painted Pony Petroleum Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:PPY.A) (TSX VENTURE:PPY.B) ("Painted Pony" or the "Company") is pleased to report the financial results for the year ended December 31, 2010. In 2010 the Company achieved several major milestones: -- grew daily production to average 2,848 boe/d in 2010, up 84% over 2009. Fourth quarter production in 2010 averaged 3,443 boe/d (weighted 53% oil and liquids and 47% gas); -- exited 2010 with an undrawn credit facility of $65 million; -- raised $44 million in bought-deal financing through the issuance of Class A shares at $6.48 per share in August 2010; -- enjoyed 2010 field netbacks of $55.42 per bbl for oil on sales prices averaging $77.84 per bbl; -- made discoveries in the Bakken formation at Flat Lake and Weyburn in Saskatchewan; -- continued to grow its land to a total of 202,307 net acres of developed and undeveloped land in Saskatchewan and British Columbia, with undeveloped land valued at $168.1 million; and -- drilled 51 (34.9 net) wells at a net success rate of 92%, including 6 (1.2 net) joint venture wells. In 2011 to date, the Company has: -- increased the undrawn credit facility to $75 million; and -- raised $80 million in bought-deal financing through the issuance of Class A shares at $10.50 per share in February 2011. Plans for 2011 Painted Pony is anticipating another active year. With the 2011 capital budget currently set at $160 million, allocating approximately 47% to British Columbia targeting liquids-rich Montney gas and 53% towards Saskatchewan targeting Bakken and Mississippian light oil plays, the Company expects to grow both core areas. A total of 38.3 net wells are planned in Saskatchewan targeting both Bakken and Mississippian targets. This will include follow-up drilling on the discovery wells in Weyburn and Flat Lake. In British Columbia, 8.3 net wells (including anticipated joint venture wells) are planned targeting liquids-rich Montney gas. Painted Pony's plans are focused on developing the three layers of Montney within the existing land base. Mid-year, the Company is planning to complete two (1.0 net) wells to establish the commerciality of gas from the Buckinghorse formation. To supplement the existing exploration and development program, the Company will continue to pursue acquisitions complementary to existing core areas. Painted Pony's financial flexibility remains strong. As at December 31, 2010, Painted Pony had no debt and a working capital deficiency of $1.2 million. On February 17, 2011, the Company completed a bought-deal financing of 7,620,000 Class A shares at a price of $10.50 per share for total gross proceeds of $80 million. In March 2011, Painted Pony's demand credit facility was increased to $75 million from $65 million, on which no balance is currently owed.

This table contains the term "funds flow from operations", which should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than "cash flow from operating activities" as determined in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") as an indicator of the Company's performance. Funds flow from operations and funds flow from operations per share (basic and diluted) does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and may not be comparable with the calculation of similar measures for other entities. Management uses funds flow from operations to analyze operating performance and leverage and considers funds flow from operations to be a key measure as it demonstrates the Company's ability to generate the cash necessary to fund future capital investment and to repay debt. The reconciliation between funds flow from operations and cash flow from operating activities can be found in the Company's "Management's Discussion and Analysis". Funds flow from operations per share is calculated using the basic and diluted weighted average number of shares for the period, and after the deemed conversion of the Class B shares to Class A shares, consistent with the calculations of earnings per share. This table also contains other industry benchmarks and terms, such as working capital (deficiency) (calculated as current assets less current liabilities) and operating netbacks (calculated on a per unit basis as oil, gas and natural gas liquids revenues less royalties, transportation, and operating costs), which are not recognized measures under GAAP. Management believes these measures are useful supplemental measures of, firstly, the total net position of current assets and current liabilities of the Company and, secondly, the Company's profitability relative to commodity prices. 2. Class B shares are converted into Class A shares at $10 divided by the greater of $1.00 and the Current Trading Price, defined as the weighted average trading price of the Class A shares for the last 30 consecutive trading days. 3. Including Asset Retirement Costs and capitalized Stock-Based Compensation. Painted Pony Class A Shares and Class B Shares trade on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbols "PPY.A" and "PPY.B", respectively. For further information, please see www.paintedpony.ca.
