NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Period ended September 30, 2009
(tabular amounts in thousands of Canadian dollars, except Trust Unit, and per Trust Unit amounts)

1.	Significant Accounting Policies

	These interim consolidated financial statements of Harvest Energy Trust (the “Trust” or “Harvest”) have been prepared by management in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (“Canadian GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingencies, if any, as at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. In the opinion of management, these financial statements have been prepared within reasonable limits of materiality. These interim consolidated financial statements follow the same significant accounting policies as described and used in the consolidated financial statements of Harvest for the year ended December 31, 2008 which should be read in conjunction with that report.

	These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Trust, its wholly owned subsidiaries and its proportionate interest in a partnership with a third party.

2.	Change in Accounting Policy

	Effective January 1, 2009, Harvest adopted the new Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants (“CICA”) accounting standard “Goodwill and Intangible Assets”, section 3064 which replaced section 3062 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” and section 3450, “Research and Development Costs”. Section 3064 establishes standards for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of intangible assets and goodwill subsequent to its initial recognition. The adoption of this standard had no impact on the consolidated financial statements.

3.	Acquisitions

	On August 11, 2009, Harvest acquired approximately 93.5% of the issued and outstanding class A shares of Pegasus Oil & Gas Inc. in exchange for 0.015 units of Harvest for each Pegasus Class A Share and approximately 90.6% of the issued and outstanding class B shares of Pegasus in exchange for 0.15 units of Harvest for each Pegasus Class B Share for total consideration of approximately $4.6 million plus the assumption of $13.9 million of debt. This amount consisted of the issuance of 670,288 Trust Units at an ascribed price of $6.89 per Trust Unit, based on the weighted average trading price of the Harvest Trust Units before and after the announcement date of June 15, 2009. The results of operations of this acquisition have been included in the consolidated financial statements since its acquisition date.

General and administrative costs of $2.9 million (2008 – $1.4 million) have been capitalized during the three months ended September 30, 2009, of which $0.1 million (2008 – recovery of $1.3 million) related to the Trust Unit Rights Incentive Plan and the Unit Award Incentive Plan. For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, $8.1 million (2008 - $7.9 million) of general and administrative costs have been capitalized, of which approximately $40,000 (2008 – $0.3 million) related to the Trust Unit Rights Incentive Plan and the Unit Award Incentive Plan.

7.	Goodwill Impairment

	Harvest assesses goodwill for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances warrant. At June 30, 2009, it was determined that an impairment test was required due to expectations of lower refining margins and the probable deferral of certain future capital expenditures. Harvest completed a two-step process to determine whether the goodwill of the Downstream reporting unit was impaired. The first step of the impairment test involves comparing the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value, including goodwill. The fair value was determined using a discounted cash flow approach which incorporated management’s expectations of future throughput and expenses and the forward curve for refined product crack spreads. At June 30, 2009, the fair value of the Downstream reporting unit was below its carrying value, indicating a potential impairment. The second step requires the fair value of goodwill be determined by valuing a reporting unit’s net assets in the same manner as allocating a purchase price in a business combination. It was determined that the goodwill associated with the Downstream reporting unit was fully impaired and a charge of $206.5 million was recorded in the financial results at June 30, 2009.

	At September 30, 2009, it was determined that an impairment test was required for the Upstream reporting unit due to the reasonable expectation that a significant portion, or all, of the reporting unit would be sold. The Arrangement Agreement with the Korea National Oil Corporation, announced on October 21, 2009, has been considered to be a fair value for all of the issued and outstanding Trust Units of Harvest from which a fair value of the Upstream reporting unit could be reasonably determined. Based on this, it was determined that the fair value of the Upstream reporting unit was below its carrying value as at September 30, 2009, indicating a potential impairment. Subsequently, the fair value of the Upstream goodwill was determined by valuing the reporting unit’s net assets in the same manner as allocating a purchase price in a business combination. It was determined that the goodwill associated with the Upstream reporting unit was fully impaired and a charge of $677.6 million was recorded at September 30, 2009.

8.	Asset Retirement Obligation

	Harvest’s asset retirement obligations result from its net ownership interest in petroleum and natural gas assets including well sites, gathering systems and processing facilities and the estimated costs and timing to reclaim and abandon them. Harvest estimates the total undiscounted amount of cash flows required to settle its asset retirement obligations to be approximately $1,181 million which will be incurred between 2009 and 2058. The majority of the costs will be incurred between 2015 and 2040. A credit-adjusted risk-free discount rate of 8% - 10% and inflation rate of approximately 2% were used to calculate the fair value of the asset retirement obligations.

A reconciliation of the asset retirement obligations is provided below:
		September 30, 2009			December 31, 2008
Balance, beginning of period	$	277,318		$	213,529

Balance, end of period	$	286,077		$	277,318

9.	Bank Loan

	At September 30, 2009, Harvest had $1,050.9 million drawn of the $1.6 billion available under the Credit Facility ($1,226.2 million drawn at December 31, 2008) which matures on April 30, 2010.

	The Credit Facility is secured by a $2.5 billion first floating charge over all of the assets of Harvest's operating subsidiaries plus a first mortgage security interest on the refinery assets of North Atlantic. The most restrictive covenants of Harvest’s credit facility include an aggregate limitation of $25 million on financial assistance and/or capital contributions to parties other than those included in the first floating charge, a limitation to carrying on business in countries that are not members of the Organization of Economic Co-operation and Development and a limitation on the payment of distributions to Unitholders in certain circumstances including an event of default. The Credit Facility requires standby fees on undrawn amounts and interest on amounts borrowed at varying rates depending on Harvest's ratio of secured debt (excluding the 7^7/8% Senior Notes and Convertible Debentures) to its earnings before interest, taxes, depletion, amortization and other non-cash amounts ("EBITDA"). In addition to the availability under this facility being limited by the Borrowing Base Covenant of the 7^7/8% Senior Notes described (as described in Note 11 in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008), availability is subject to the following quarterly financial covenants:

	Covenant	As at September 30, 2009
Secured debt to EBITDA	3.0 to 1.0 or less	1.8
Total senior debt to EBITDA	3.5 to 1.0 or less	2.2
Secured debt to Capitalization	50% or less	28%
Total senior debt to Capitalization	55% or less	35%

	For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, Harvest’s average interest rate on advances under the Credit Facility was 1.20% (2008 – 3.92%) and 1.52% (2008 – 4.29%) respectively.

10.	Convertible Debentures

	At September 30, 2009, Harvest had five series of Convertible Unsecured Subordinated Debentures outstanding, the details of which have been outlined in Harvest’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008.

The following table summarizes the face value, carrying amount and fair value of the Convertible Debentures:

14.	Financial Instruments and risk management contracts

	Harvest is exposed to market risks resulting from fluctuations in commodity prices, currency exchange rates and interest rates in the normal course of operations. Harvest is also exposed, to a lesser extent, to credit risk on accounts receivable and counterparties to price risk management contracts and to liquidity risk relating to our debt. The Trust’s financial risk exposure and risk management strategies have not changed significantly from those described in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008 in Note 20 as filed on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

	Financial instruments of Harvest consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, cash distribution payable, a credit facility, risk management contracts, Convertible Debentures and the 7^7/8% Senior Notes.

	At September 30, 2009, the net fair value reflected on the balance sheet for all the risk management contracts outstanding at that date was approximately $8.6 million (December 31, 2008 - $35.9 million), which was included in the balance sheet as follows: fair value of risk management contracts (current assets) $9.5 million, fair value deficiency of risk management contracts (current liabilities) $0.9 million.

16.	Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees

	From time to time, Harvest is involved in litigation or has claims brought against it in the normal course of business operations. Management of Harvest is not currently aware of any claims or actions that would materially affect Harvest’s reported financial position or results from operations. In the normal course of operations, management may also enter into certain types of contracts that require Harvest to indemnify parties against possible third party claims, particularly when these contracts relate to purchase and sale agreements. The terms of such contracts vary and generally a maximum is not explicitly stated; as such the overall maximum amount of the obligations cannot be reasonably estimated. Management does not believe payments, if any, related to such contracts would have a material effect on Harvest’s reported financial position or results from operations.

	The following are the significant commitments and contingencies at September 30, 2009:

	(a)	Canada Revenue Agency Assessment

		In January 2009, Canada Revenue Agency issued a Notice of Reassessment to Harvest Energy Trust in respect of its 2002 through 2004 taxation years claiming past taxes, interest and penalties totaling $6.2 million. The CRA has adjusted Harvest Energy Trust’s taxable income to include their net profits interest royalty income on an accrual basis whereas the tax returns had reported this revenue on a cash basis. A Notice of Objection has been filed with CRA requesting the adjustments to an accrual basis be reversed. The Harvest Energy Trust 2005 tax return has also been prepared on a cash basis for royalty income with no taxes payable and, if reassessed by CRA on a similar basis, there would have been approximately $40 million of taxes owing. The Harvest Energy Trust 2006 tax return has been prepared on an accrual basis including incremental payments required to align the prior year’s cash basis of reporting with no taxes payable. Management along with our legal advisors believe the CRA has not properly applied the provisions of the Income Tax Act (Canada) that entitle income from a royalty to be included in taxable income on a cash basis and that the dispute will be resolved with no taxes payable by Harvest Energy Trust. Harvest has filed a Notice of Objection with the CRA and filed a Notice of Appeal with the Tax Court. The CRA has advised that they will file their Reply/Statement of Defense shortly and Harvest has now scheduled examinations for discovery for December 2009.

The following is a summary of Harvest’s contractual obligations and commitments as at September 30, 2009:
