    Harvest is a significant operator in Canada's energy industry offering
Unitholders exposure to an integrated structure with upstream and downstream
segments. We focus on identifying opportunities to create and deliver value to
Unitholders through monthly distributions and unit price appreciation. Given
our size, liquidity and integrated structure, Harvest is well positioned to
complement our internal portfolio with value-added acquisitions that help
drive our Sustainable Growth strategy. Our upstream oil and gas production is
weighted approximately 72% to crude oil and liquids and 28% to natural gas,
and is complemented by our long-life refining and marketing business. Harvest
trust units are traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") under the symbol
"HTE.UN" and on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") under the symbol "HTE".
