Powermax is an emerging company engaged in the exploration, development, and production of petroleum and natural gas in western Canada. The Company has demonstrated tremendous growth in the past 6 months, going from a corporation burdened with debt and generating negative cash flow and earnings, to a company with no debt, significant financial growth, and numerous projects.

Powermax has recently tied-in a number of new wells raising net production to about 350 barrels of oil equivalent per day. Approximately 70% of current production is comprised of natural gas. The Company plans to drill up to 6 wells over the balance of 2003, and to exit this year with production of over 500 boepd.

At its core area of Galahad, Powermax has identified 3 to 6 multi-zone development drilling locations. Another 3 wells in the area are categorized as ideal recompletion candidates, which provide the potential for incremental production.

The Company’s newly acquired Peace River Arch property has the potential for significant oil and natural gas additions and has the added benefit of accessibility to infrastructure. The area offers numerous shallow drilling opportunities. In particular, a 50% interest well is expected to be drilled in 2003, targeting a zone that blew out in the early 1900’s at rates approaching 10 mmcf/d of natural gas.

Powermax has entered into an agreement with Western Petrochemicals Corp. to explore and develop a shale bed methane gas play in the Pasquia Hills region of eastern Saskatchewan. Powermax can earn a 100% working interest in 188,000 acres in exchange for completing a $625,000 work program over a period of 30 months. In addition to completing the work obligations, the corporation made an initial payment of $50,000, and will issue 50,000 common shares. Powermax also recently acquired exploration permits covering a contiguous 106,000 acre parcel of land in the Moose Jaw region of Saskatchewan which is prospective for natural gas.

QIS CAPITAL COMMENTS:
Powermax Energy has come a long way in the past 12 months and now appears poised to show considerable growth and gain increased attention from the investment community. While the Company underwent some restructuring to reduce debt and streamline costs during the first half of 2002, new banking arrangements and the appointment of a professional staff have now positioned Powermax to exploit its vast potential. It should also be noted that the Company has an untapped $2.1 million line of credit as well as a $1 million acquisition line of credit.

The first quarter of 2003 is the first real indication of the positive financial outlook for Powermax. Annualized first quarter cash flow is approximately $0.30 per share based on a production base of about 330 boepd. The Company anticipates this production to continue to increase with a year-end target rate of 500 boepd. Ignoring this potential production increase, Powermax’s shares are trading at just over 2 times annualized cash flow, at a significant discount to net asset value, and the Company is debt free. This enviable financial position should enable Powermax to capitalize on its aggressive growth plans.
