* On January 16, 2001, by means of a share exchange, Pendaries Petroleum Ltd. ("Pendaries") became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ultra Petroleum Corp. ("Ultra"). Therefore, all Pendaries common shares held or traded after the closing of the share exchange no longer represented shares of Pendaries, but instead represented the right to acquire Ultra common shares. Reminder: Report on a separate line for each class of securities beneficially owned directly or indirectly.
