On
January 8, 2009, St. Mary Land & Exploration Company (“St. Mary” or the
“Company”) announced that the Company's Executive Vice President and Chief
Operating Officer, Jay Ottoson, will present at Pritchard Capital Partners’
Energize 2009 Conference at 10:55 am pacific time on Tuesday, January 13, 2009,
at the Westin Market Street, located at 50 Third Street, San Francisco,
CA. A copy of this press release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this
report.
This
report contains forward looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of
the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934. The words “will,” “believe,” “budget,” “anticipate,” “plan,”
“intend,” “estimate,” “forecast,” and “expect” and similar expressions are
intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements
involve known and unknown risks, which may cause St. Mary’s actual results to
differ materially from results expressed or implied by the forward looking
statements. These risks include such factors as the pending nature of
the reported acquisition agreement as well as the ability to complete the
transaction, the uncertain nature of the expected benefits from the acquisition
of oil and gas properties, and the ability to successfully integrate
acquisitions, the imprecise nature of oil and gas reserve estimates, and other
such matters discussed in the “Risk Factors” section of St. Mary’s 2007
Annual Report on Form 10-K/A and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed
with the SEC. Although St. Mary may from time to time voluntarily
update its prior forward looking statements, it disclaims any commitment to do
so except as required by securities laws.
