Risk factors

A number of risk factors may have a material adverse effect on the Group and the value of the Shares. Below is a brief summary of the risk factors. Please note that the risks described are not the only risks that may affect the Group or the value of the Shares. Additional risks not presently known to the Group or which the Group currently deems immaterial may also have such material adverse effect. There can be no assurance that the risk management and internal control procedures implemented by the Group are sufficient to manage all relevant risks. These risk factors include, but are not limited to:

Risks relating to the Group and its Operations

The marketability of oil and natural gas acquired or discovered in the countries in which the •

Company operates will be affected by numerous factors beyond the control of the Company. Both oil and gas prices are unstable and are subject to fluctuation. Any material decline •

in prices could result in a material reduction of the Company’s net production revenue and overall value.

The energy market, in all countries in which the Company operates, is highly competitive •

in all its phases. The competition may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s profitability, business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and prospects. An investment in Wentworth should be considered speculative due to its current stage of •

development and the nature of the Company’s involvement in the exploration for, and the acquisition, development and production of, oil and natural gas in foreign countries. International operations are subject to political, economic and other uncertainties, which •

may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s profitability, business, financial condition results of operations, liquidity and prospects.

The assets in which the Company has or will have an interest are subject to contracts •

with the relevant country’s government. If for any reason these contracts are found to be void or challenged, the Company may suffer significant damage through loss of the opportunity to develop and discover any resources on the relevant asset

Future political conditions in Tanzania and Mozambique may result in the government •

adopting different policies respecting foreign development and ownership of oil and natural gas, environmental protection and labour relations, which may affect the Company’s ability to undertake exploration and development activities in respect of present and future properties, as well as the ability to raise funds to further such activities.

Transfers of interests in the exploration and development typically require state approval, •

which may delay or otherwise impede transfers and on-going operations.

The extentive government politicies and regulation that the oil and gas industry is subject •

to may result in additional cost and risk for industry participants. The Company cannot predict what additional legislation or amendments may be proposed that will affect operations or when any such proposals, if enacted, might become effective. Environmental concerns relating to the oil and gas industry’s operating practices are •

expected to increasingly influence government regulation and consumption patterns which favour cleaner burning fuels such as gas.The Company is uncertain as to the amount of operating and capital expenses that will be required to comply with enhanced environmental regulation in the future.

Wentworth is subject to all of the operational risks normally associated with (1) the •

exploration, production, storage, transportation and marketing of oil and gas and (2) the generation, transmission and distribution of electricity.

Wentworth is not fully insured against all of these risks and although it maintains liability •

insurance in an amount that it considers adequate, the nature of these risks is such that liabilities could exceed policy limites, in which event Wentworth would inclur significant costs. Exploration or development activities in countries like Tanzania and Mozambique •

may require protracted negotiations with host governments, and may be exposed to renegotiation or nullification of existing contracts, change in taxation policies, and international monetary fluctuations.

Some of Wentworth’s facilities are located in harsh and unpredictable climates and •

locations and can experience extreme weather conditions and natural disasters, which may result in seriously or completely impaired or destroyed facilities and lead to suspension of operations.

There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of resources and the •

technically recoverable resource estimates included in this Presentation could thus be materially different from the quantities and values ultimately realized.

There are high risks associated with working within a marine park environment which •

may affect operations beyond Wentworth’s control.

There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain all necessary licenses •

(5)

Risk factors continued

The Company’s success depends, to a significant extent, upon its management and key •

employees. The loss of key employees could have a material adverse effect on the Company. Any strike activity or labour unrest could have a material adverse effect on the

Company’s ongoing operations and financial condition and its ability to explore for, produce and market its oil and natural gas production.

Demand for limited equipment or access restrictions may affect the availability of such •

equipment to the Company and may delay exploration and development activities. The inability of counterparties and joint operating partners to fulfill their obligations to the •

Company could adversely impact results of operations.

Should change of control or pre-emption provisions be triggered with regard to later •

transactions it may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Wentworth’s ability to complete projects depends upon numerous factors beyond the •

Company’s control.

Financial Risks

Wentworth is exposed to normal financial risks inherent within the oil and gas industry, •

including commodity price risk, exchange rate risk, interest rate risk and credit risk. Depending on future exploration and development plans and results thereof, Wentworth •

may require additional financing, which may not be available or, if available, may not be available on favourable terms.

A majority of the Company’s operations and expenditures are paid in foreign currency. •

As a result, the Company is exposed to market risks resulting from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

Risk Relating to the Shares

Existing Shareholders who do not participate in the Private Placement or the Subsequent •

Offering may experience significant dilution of their shareholding.

There are indefinite resale restrictions on the Shares which may prevent the shareholders •

from reselling the Shares in certain jurisdictions.

Holders of Shares that are registered in a nominee account may not be able to exercise •

voting rights as readily as other shareholders.

The price of the Shares could experience substantial fluctuations caused by a number •

of factors which are beyong the Company’s control and may be independent of its operational and financial development.

Transfer of Shares is subject to restrictions in the United States and there can be no •

assurance that shareholders of the Company reciding or domiciled in the United States will be able to participate in future equity issues or be allocated subscription rights. Issuance and transfer of Shares is subject to restrictions in Canada and there can be no •

assurance that shareholders of the Company reciding or domiciled in the United States will be able to participate in future equity issues or be allocated subscription rights. If Norwegian Corporate Shareholders or Norwegian Personal Shareholders control •

a company (i.e. directly or indirectly own or control at least 50% of the shares or the capital of the company) resident in a low tax jurisdiction, such Norwegian shareholders may be subject to Norwegian taxation according to the Norwegian Controlled Foreign Corporations regulations (Norwegian CFC-regulations).

Other Risks

It may be difficult or impossible to effect service or notice to commence legal •

proceedings upon the directors and officers of the Company, and it may be difficult or impossible to enforce against such persons judgements obtained in Norwegian or Canadian courts.

Certain directors or officers of Wentworth may also be directors or officers of other oil •

and gas companies from time to time and as such may, in certain circumstances, have a conflict of interest requiring them to abstain from certain decisions. Conflicts, if any, will be subject to the procedures and remedies of the ABCA.

From time to time, there may be legal disputes or proceedings pending or threatened •

against the Company relating to its business.

If any of these risks or uncertainties actually occurs, the business, operating results and financial condition of the Company could be materially and adversely affected. The risks presented in this Presentation are not exhaustive, and other risks not discussed herein may also materially and adversely affect the Company. Prospective investors should consider carefully the information contained in this Presentation and make an independent evaluation before making an investment decision.

Mnazi Bay Concession

Onshore and Offshore Block (25.4% net W.I.)

The Mnazi Bay concession covers a 756 km² area in southeastern

Tanzania, bordering Mozambique and lying along the flank of the

Rovuma River

Wentworth's interest in the concession is owned 87% by WRL and

13% by FMO of the Netherlands

In 1981, ENI drilled a shallow water, off-shore well and discovered

the Mnazi Bay gas field

In 2004, Artumas Group (now Wentworth) acquired the rights to

the Mnazi Bay concession

In 2005, the Company successfully re-entered a shut-in well and

subsequently drilled two appraisal wells and one exploration well

– with 100% success – yielding natural gas and showing small

quantities of crude oil

MB-1 is currently the only producing well at a rate of

approximately 1.7mmcf/d

- gas transported by pipeline to Mtwara Power Project

(87% owned Wentworth) 27 km away

Rovuma Onshore (WRL – 11.59% net W.I.)

In August 2010 the partners received a six month extension

(without further commitments) to the initial exploration period

from the Government of Mozambique

All commitments for the 1

st

exploration phase have been satisfied

Extension allowed time to analyze data from the Mecupa-1 well

drilled in Q4 2009 and other related exploration data

Mecupa-1 well encountered hydrocarbon shows and well

developed Miocene sands

Outcome provided encouragement for future exploration

Partners have agreed to enter a 2

nd

exploration phase

Work programme is expected to include additional seismic

acquisition and at least one exploration well

Tanzania Mid & Downstream Operations

Mtwara Energy Project (MEP) is an integrated gas-to-power project:

MEP provides electricity to TANESCO in the Mtwara and Lindi

regions of Southern Tanzania (current capacity is 18MW)

Owned 87% by WRL and 13% by FMO of the Netherlands

Plant capable of generating approximately US$7 million per annum

of power sales revenue and free cash flow

A 300MW large power project for Mtwara region has been approved

for development

Tanzanian government recently requested WRL and partners to

enter into negotiations to supply 60MMscf/d of natural gas

Large power project is expected to take 36 months to build

and commission

Tanzanian MEP assets:

Gas processing facility at Msimbati Peninsula is a modular design

and can be expanded to meet the requirements of large scale gas

monetisation projects

An eight-inch diameter, 27 kilometre marine and terrestrial pipeline

from Msimbati Peninsula to the town of Mtwara with capacity of 28

mmcf/d (expandable through compression)

18 megawatt (MW) generation capacity presently at the Mtwara

power plant, and authorized to increase capacity to 30 MW at an

estimated cost of approximately US$15mm net to WRL

Gas processing and receiving facilities at

Msimbati and Mtwara

Long Term Gas Monetisation Strategy

Expertise to develop a world-scale natural gas to petrochemicals

facility to monetise Mnazi Bay gas

Wentworth senior executives and directors include developers

of projects such as: Qatar Fuel Additives Corporation (Qatar);

Dubai Gas Company (UAE); Ras Laffan LNG Company (Qatar);

Arun LNG (Indonesia); and Statfjord “A” (Norway), all successful

natural gas monetisation projects

Project pre-feasibility study is underway and being produced by

Nexant UK

Nexant has identified the deepwater Port of Mtwara (inside

the Mnazi Bay concession area) as an ideal site to construct

the project as it provides marine access to land construction

materials and transport finished products

Government of Tanzania fully supports the project and is party to

a project development Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”)

with Wentworth

MOU includes a commitment to develop the project inside the

Production Sharing Agreement (“PSA”)
