Forward-Looking Statements

Certain information regarding Touchstone Exploration Inc. ("Touchstone", "we", "our", "us", or the "Company") set forth in this presentation may constitute forward-looking statements and information (collectively, "forward-looking statements") within the meaning of applicable securities laws. All statements other than statements of historical fact may be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are often, but not always, identified bythe use of words such as “seek”, “anticipate”, “plan”, “continue”, “estimate”, “expect”, “may”, “will”, “project”, “predict”, “potential”, “targeting”, “intend”, “could”, “might”, “should”, “believe” and other similar expressions.Forward-looking statements in this presentation include, but are not limited to, those in respect of the Company’s exploration, development and production opportunities and activities, including anticipated drilling, timing,production testing, development, tie-in, facilities construction, and ultimate production from exploration and development wells; the quality and quantity of prospective hydrocarbon accumulations based on wireline logs,including the Company's interpretations thereof; the extent to which local communities will benefit from the Company's operations; and general business strategies and objectives. Statements relating to “reserves” and“resources” are deemed to be forward-looking statements, as they involve the implied assessment, based on certain estimates and assumptions, that the reserves and resources described exist in the quantities predicted orestimated and can be profitably produced in the future. The Company has a reasonable basis for disclosing such statements, which represent the Company’s internal projections, estimates or beliefs concerning future growth, andresults of operations.

With respect to forward-looking statements contained in this presentation, the Company has made assumptions regarding: financial condition, outlook and results of operations, exploration, development and associatedoperational plans (including drilling, testing, facilities construction and recompletion programs) and the anticipated costs and timing thereof; estimated oil and gas reserves (including the magnitude, ability to recover,commerciality and net present value thereof); production rates and production decline rates; net feet of pay based on internal estimates of wireline logs; the success of exploration opportunities; plans for and results of productiontesting; the ability to secure necessary personnel, equipment, production licences and services; environmental matters; future commodity prices; changes to prevailing regulatory, royalty, tax and environmental laws andregulations; the impact of competition, future capital and other expenditures (including the amount, nature and sources of funding thereof); future financing sources; and business prospects and opportunities; and the impact theCOVID-19 pandemic will have on the Company’s future operations and future petroleum pricing, among other things.

Since forward-looking statements address future events and conditions, by their very nature they involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those currently anticipated due to a number offactors and risks. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for Management to predict all of such factors and to assess in advance the impact of each such factor on Touchstone’s business or the extent to whichany factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Although the Company believes that the expectations and assumptions on which theforward-looking statements are based are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on the forward-looking statements because the Company can give no assurance that they will prove to be correct. Some of the risks thatcould affect the Company's future results and could cause results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking information are described under the heading "Advisories: Business Risks" in this presentation andare also set out in more detail in the Company's 2019 Annual Information Form dated March 25, 2020 which has been filed on SEDAR and can be accessed at www.sedar.com.

Business Risks

The Company is exposed to numerous operational, technical, financial and regulatory risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond its control and may significantly affect anticipated future results. The Company is exposed torisks associated with negotiating with foreign governments as well as country risk associated with conducting international activities. Operations may be unsuccessful or delayed as a result of competition for services, supplies andequipment, mechanical and technical difficulties, ability to attract and retain qualified employees on a cost-effective basis, commodity and marketing risk. The Company is subject to significant drilling risks and uncertaintiesincluding the ability to find oil and gas reserves on an economic basis and the potential for technical problems that could lead to well blow-outs and environmental damage. The Company is exposed to risks relating to the inabilityto obtain timely regulatory approvals, surface access, access to third-party gathering and processing facilities, transportation and other third-party related operation risks. The Company is subject to industry conditions includingchanges in laws and regulations, including the adoption of new environmental laws and regulations and changes in how they are interpreted and enforced. There are uncertainties in estimating the Company’s reserve and resourcebase due to the complexities in estimated future production, costs and timing of expenses and future capital. The Company is subject to the risk that it will not be able to fulfill the contractual obligations required to retain its rightsto explore, develop and exploit any of its properties. The financial risks the Company is exposed to include, but are not limited to, the impact of general economic conditions in Canada, the United Kingdom and Trinidad, continuedvolatility in market prices for oil and gas, the impact of significant declines in market prices for oil and gas, the ability to access sufficient capital from internal and external sources, changes in income tax laws, royalties andincentive programs relating to the oil and gas industry, fluctuations in interest rates, the C$ to US$ exchange rate and the US$ to TT$ exchange rate. The Company is subject to local regulatory legislation, the compliance with whichmay require significant expenditures and non-compliance with which may result in fines, penalties or production restrictions or the termination of licence, LOA or farm-in rights related to the Company’s oil and gas interests inTrinidad. Certain of these risks are set out in more detail in the Company’s 2019 Annual Information Form dated March 25, 2020 which has been filed on SEDAR and can be accessed at www.sedar.com.

Advisories Business Risks (Continued)

The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in emergency actions taken by governments worldwide which has had an effect in Canada, the United Kingdom and Trinidad. The actions taken by these governments have typically included,but is not limited to travel bans, mandatory and self-imposed quarantines and isolations, physical distancing, and the closing of non-essential businesses which have had significant negative effects on economies, including asubstantial decline in crude oil and natural gas demand. Additionally, such actions have resulted in volatility and disruptions in regular business operations, supply chains and financial markets as well as declining trade and marketsentiment. COVID-19 as well as other factors have resulted in the deepest drop in crude oil prices that global markets have seen since 1991. With the rapid spread of COVID-19, oil prices and the global equity markets havedeteriorated significantly and are expected to remain under pressure. These events and conditions have caused a significant decrease in the valuation of oil and natural gas companies and a decrease in confidence in the oil andnatural gas industry. COVID-19 also poses a risk on the financial capacity of the Company's contract counterparties and potentially their ability to perform contractual obligations. The full extent of the risks surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic is continually evolving. The risks disclosed in the Company’s 2019 Annual Information Form may be exacerbated as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic: market risks related to the volatility of oil and gas prices,volatility of foreign exchange rates, volatility of the market price of common shares, and hedging arrangements; operational risks related to increasing operating costs or declines in production levels, operator performance andpayment delays, and government regulations, ability to obtain additional financing, and variations in foreign exchange rates; and other risks related to cyber-security as our workforce moves to remote connections, accountingadjustments, effectiveness of internal controls, and reliance on key personnel, management, and labour.

Oil and Gas Reserves

The reserves information summarized in this presentation are from the Company’s December 31, 2020 independent reserve report prepared by Touchstone’s independent reserves evaluator, GLJ Ltd. ("GLJ"), dated March 4, 2021.The report was prepared in accordance with definitions, standards and procedures contained in the Canadian Oil and Gas Evaluation Handbook ("COGEH") and National Instrument 51-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Oil and GasActivities ("NI 51-101"). All December 31, 2020 reserves presented are based on GLJ’s forecast pricing dated January 1, 2021 and estimated costs effective December 31, 2020. Additional 2020 reserves information as requiredunder NI 51-101 will be included in the Company’s 2020 Annual Information Form which will be filed on SEDAR on or prior to March 31, 2021.

Oil and Gas Measures

Where applicable, natural gas has been converted to barrels of oil equivalent based on six thousand cubic feet to one barrel of oil. The barrel of oil equivalent rate is based on an energy equivalent conversion method primarilyapplicable at the burner tip, and given that the value ratio based on the current price of crude oil as compared to natural gas is significantly different than the energy equivalency of the 6:1 conversion ratio, utilizing the 6:1conversion ratio may be misleading as an indication of value.

Advisories Oil and Gas Drilling and Test Results

References in this presentation to net feet of pay is based on the Company's interpretation of wireline logs, which is not necessarily indicative of the quantity and quality of prospective hydrocarbon accumulations.

References in this presentation to production test rates and initial flow rates are useful in confirming the presence of hydrocarbons; however, such rates are not determinative of the rates at which such wells will commenceproduction and decline thereafter and are not indicative of long-term performance or of ultimate recovery. Additionally, such rates may also include recovered "load oil" fluids used in well completion stimulation. Whileencouraging, readers are cautioned not to place reliance on such rates in calculating the aggregate production for the Company. Please refer to endnotes 5 and 6 for further information.

Drilling Locations

This presentation discloses total drilling locations. Drilling locations are classified into three categories: (i) proved locations; (ii) probable locations; and (iii) unbooked locations. Proved locations and probable locations are derivedfrom the Company's reserves evaluation of GLJ Ltd. effective December 31, 2020 and account for locations that have associated proved and/or probable reserves, as applicable. Unbooked locations are internal estimates based onthe prospective acreage associated with the Company’s assets and an assumption as to the number of wells that can be drilled based on industry practice and internal review. Unbooked locations do not have attributed reserves.Of the approximately 215 (net) drilling locations identified herein, 40 are proved locations; 21 are probable locations; and the remaining are unbooked locations. Unbooked locations have been identified by Management as anestimation of potential multi-year drilling activities based on evaluation of applicable geologic, seismic, engineering, production and reserves information. There is no certainty that the Company will drill all unbooked drillinglocations, and if drilled there is no certainty that such locations will result in additional oil and gas reserves or production. The locations on which the Company will drill wells will ultimately depend upon the availability of capital,regulatory approvals, crude oil and natural gas prices, costs, actual drilling results, additional reservoir information that can be obtained and other factors. While certain of the unbooked drilling locations have been de-risked bydrilling existing wells in relative close proximity to such unbooked drilling locations, other unbooked drilling locations are farther away from existing wells where Management has less information about the characteristics of thereservoir, and therefore there is more uncertainty whether wells will be drilled in such locations; and if drilled there is more uncertainty that such wells will result in additional oil and gas reserves or production.

Non-GAAP Measures

This presentation may contain terms commonly used in the oil and natural gas industry, such as funds flow from operations, working capital, and operating netback. These terms do not have a standardized meaning underGenerally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Shareholders and investors are cautioned that these measures should not be construed asalternatives to cash provided by operating activities, net income, or other measures of financial performance as determined in accordance with GAAP. Management uses these non-GAAP measures for its own performancemeasurement and to provide stakeholders with measures to compare the Company’s operations over time.
