11 Texas Issues Price of oil fell ~half since July National economy, High Tech & Healthcare sectors still fairly strong: major influences Energy-dependent local economies (e.g. Houston, Corpus) more vulnerable to significant downturns Statewide or local Slowdown vs. Decline? State budget expectations from Severance Tax affected by oil price decline Downstream offsets to Upstream cutbacks? 11

12 Oil Prices & Energy Prices may not have bottomed yet: Saudi Arabia continues to protect its market share Global oil production will increase before it decreases Global oil demand not rapidly increasing even with rapidly-falling prices. The rig count will drop: January US by 199 rigs to 1,683; Texas was down 99 rigs. Expect significant cut back in upstream capital spending on E&P, i.e., fewer wells drilled Increased geo-political-military volatility among oil producing nations that need (require) $95-$100+ oil price 12
