HIGHLIGHTS

On December 23, 2008 Reliable closed a financing of common and flow through
shares for gross proceeds of $9,739,760.


On December 24 Ceres acquired all the issued and outstanding shares of Reliable
and Reliable became a subsidiary of Ceres.


The transaction between Ceres and Reliable was accounted for as a reverse
take-over and although the results are in the name of Ceres the highlights
contained here-in are deemed to be a continuation of Reliable.


The Company, through Reliable, participated in the drilling of four wells (2.8
net) during 2008. Two wells (1.0 net) were drilled in the Trochu Basin, Alberta
and were abandoned and two (1.8 net) were drilled in Kirkella, Manitoba. One
(0.9 net) was put on production in March 2009 and one (0.9 net) is awaiting
completion services.


Ceres Production averaged 119 mcf/day (20 boe/d) in 2008 compared with 228
mcf/day (38 boe/day) in 2007. During the fourth quarter of 2008, production
averaged 75 mcf/day (13 boe/day) compared with 155 mcf/day (26 boe/day) in the
same period in 2007. Facility constraints resulted in some wells being shut in
for four months during 2008.


Net loss in 2008 was $1.9 million compared with $4.5 million in 2007.

Total debt at December 31, 2008 was $1.17 million compared with $1.1 million in
2007 and relates to amounts owing on a convertible debenture.


Capital expenditures in 2008 totalled $1.8 million compared with $1.0 million in
2007.


The Company's oil and natural gas reserves were evaluated by Sproule Associates
Limited ("Sproule") as at December 31, 2008. The report concludes that the
company holds 274 mmcf of proved reserves and 364 mmcf of proved plus probable
reserves. The report assigns a value before tax of $731,000 for the proved plus
probable reserves applying a discount rate of 10%.


In August 2008, the Company, through Reliable, entered into a farm-in on
approximately 48,000 acres of lands in SE Saskatchewan and SW Manitoba. At
December 31, 2008, the company held 23,949 acres (net) of undeveloped lands in
Western Canada.

Note: A barrel of oil equivalent (boe), derived by converting gas to oil
      in the ratio of six thousand cubic feet of gas to one barrel of oil
      may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe
      conversion is based on an energy equivalency conversion method
      primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a
      value equivalency at the wellhead.
