We are “pumped up” (no need to pardon the obvious pun) about our business, our prospects and our service as a U.S. company providing energy for our country. It’s a charge we take very seriously, as reflected in our operational and financial results. We delivered on our commitment to increase reserves and production, with proved reserves rising 44 percent to 116.9 million barrels of oil equivalent last year and production climbing to 49,800 barrels per day of oil equivalent for the fourth quarter representing a 21 percent increase over the comparable period of 2010. Our reserve replacement ratio for the year was 312 percent and the PV-10 value of our proved reserves grew to $3.1 billion, representing a 63 percent increase over 2010. We continue to generate significant cash flow. Operating income increased $162.7 mil- lion in 2011 to $329.5 million SHAREHOLDER’S LETTER 2011 the highest level in the Com- pany’s history. Net income rose by $54.9 million to $172.8 million on revenues of $971.0 million. Excluding special items, 2011 net income rose 54 percent to $179.9 million. Earnings per share increased 71 cents to $2.29 (up 81 cents or 52 percent to $2.38, excluding special items). Adjusted EBITDA grew 44 percent to more than $646.5 million. We paid a special dividend to shareholders in 2011 for the fourth time in five years, with a total dividend yield of 3.7 percent. In fact, we recently doubled the size of our quarterly dividend to eight cents per share per quarter from four cents per share previously. For 2011, our total shareholder return, which represents the change in our stock price during the year plus dividends, was approximately 25 percent in a year in which many E&P companies’ stock prices were down and the S&P index was flat to slightly negative. This placed us first in a list of 17 peer-group companies. We improved our liquidity position in 2011, entering into a new four-year revolving credit facility and refinancing our high-yield notes to extend the maturity by five years to 2019. In addition, we increased our borrowing base to $575.0 million from $405.5 million at year-end 2010. 44902pixD2R2_44902pixD2R2 3/11/12 12:47 PM Page 3 During the year we achieved an all-in reserve replace- our exploration and development programs offshore pro- ment cost of $13.59 per barrel of oil equivalent.

With liquid hydrocarbon prices continuing W&T operates seven of those eight wells. These wells to outpace natural gas prices, we have continued to focus included two wells at our Ship Shoal 349 “Mahogany” on crude oil and NGLs.

In May, 2011, we acquired the Yellow Rose Properties adding 30 MMBoe of proved reserves at closing. Subse- quently, we were successful on 45 of the 46 wells that were drilled to total depth last year. Twenty-nine wells were in the Permian Basin on the Yellow Rose Properties and 13 wells were in Terry County, Texas. The wells drilled in Terry County are all exploration wells and are still in the delineation phase of the project, but initial results have been encouraging.
