(i) Management uses funds flow from operations (before changes in non-cash
    working capital) to analyze operating performance. Funds flow as
    presented does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by Canadian
    Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and therefore may not be
    comparable with the calculation of similar measures for other entities.



Operations Review

All of the Company's oil and gas properties are located in Alberta. Traverse
purchased additional interests in the Turin area from partners during the second
quarter for cash consideration of $320,000. Field activities were restricted due
to spring breakup and extensive wet weather conditions in southern Alberta. No
wells were drilled during the second quarter. The Company was able to add
infrastructure at the Turin property, including additions to the oil battery and
installation of a natural gas sweetening unit. Undeveloped land holdings at June
30, 2010 totalled 170,000 gross (160,000 net) acres.


Traverse plans an active drilling program for 2010 including up to 12 gross (8
net) wells with an initial budget of $6 to $7 million. This program includes a
combination of development and exploratory wells targeting oil and natural gas.
The near term is focused largely on oil.


Subsequent to the second quarter, the Company sold a minor producing property
for $800,000. Drilling completed to date in the third quarter includes a
re-entry (100%) in the Manyberries area and 2 gross (1.5 net) wells in the Turin
area. At Turin, the Company is developing a Sunburst oil pool. Upon successful
completion of these recent wells, Traverse plans to proceed with pipeline
construction to allow for natural gas conservation and water injection in a
nearby wellbore. Further drilling will be scheduled upon completion of this
infrastructure.


In addition to the Turin property, Traverse plans drilling operations at Little
Bow, Long Coulee and Manyberries in southern Alberta and at Warwick and Carbon
in central Alberta.
