Case No. 09-10785 (KC) (Jointly Administered)

DISCLOSURE AFFIDAVIT OF ORDINARY COURSE PROFESSIONAL

THIR JUDICIAL DISTRICT )


my

I, Michael Jungreis, hereby declare that the following is true to the best of

knowledge, information and belief:


1. I am a shareholder of

HARTIG RHODES HOGE & LEKISCH, P.C. (the

"Firm") whichinaintains offices at 717 K Street, Anchorage, Alaska 99501.


2. This Affdavit is submitted in connection with an order of the United

States Banuptcy Court for the District of

Delaware dated April

8, 2009, authorizing the above-

captioned debtors and debtors in possession (the "Debtors") to retain certain professionals in the ordinary course of business during the pendency of the Debtors' chapter 11 cases (the "Chapter
11 Cases").

i The Debtors in these cases, along with the last four digits of each of the Debtor's federal tax identification
number, are: Pacific Energy Resources Ltd. (3442); Petrocal Acquisition Corp. (6249); Pacific Energy Alaska

Holdings, LLC (tax J.D. # not available); Cameros Acquisition Corp. (5866); Pacific Energy Alaska Operating LLC (7021); San Pedro Bay Pipeline Company (1234); Cameros Energy, Inc. (9487); and Gotland Oil, Inc. (5463). The the Debtors is 111 W. Ocean Boulevard, Suite 1240, Long Beach, CA 90208. mailing address for all of

3. The Fir, though me, and members of

the Firm, have represented and

advised the Debtors as attorneys with respect to regulatory approval of acquisition of stock of
Cook Inlet Pipeline and other issues regarding Cook Inlet Pipeline, unitization and leasing issues

with respect to Cook Inlet oil and gas leases, the Forest OillUnocallawsuit regarding Trading
Bay, Alaska unit expenses pending in US District Court in Alaska, the Debtors' lawsuits against
the State of Alaska's Deparent of

Natural Resources filed in Anchorage Superior Cour with

case numbers 3AN-09-04145 CI and 3AN-09-05250 CI, and miscellaneous Alaska law issues,

since September 24,2007.


4. The Debtors have requested, and the Firm has agreed, to continue to

provide services to the Debtors pursuant to section 327 of chapter 1 i of

title 11 of

the United

States Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") with respect to such matters. Additionally, the Debtors
have requested, and the Firm proposes to render, the following services to the Debtors: (Insert
description J.
5. The Firm's curent customary (hourly) rates, subject to change from time

to time, are $295 for Andrew Hoge, $275 for me, and $175 and $165 for associates.
In the normal course of

business, the Firm revises its regular (hourly) rates on January 1 of each

year and requests that, effective Januar i of each year, the aforementioned rates be revised to

the regular (hourly)

rates which wil be in effect at that time.


6. To the best of

my knowledge, fonned after due inquiry, neither I, the


has any connection with the Debtors or currently represents any
the United States Trustee or any person

Firm, nor any employee thereof

of

their creditors, other paries-in-interest, the Offce of

employed by the Offce of the United States Trustee with respect to the matters upon which it is

to be engaged, and the Firm does not, by reason of any direct or indirect relationship to,
connection with, or interest in the Debtors, hold or represent any interest adverse to the Debtors,

their estates or any class of creditors or equity interest holders, except (list in detail).
7. Thus, I believe that the Firm's representation of such entities in matters

entirely unrelated to the Debtors is not adverse to the Debtors' interests, or the interests of

their

creditors or estates in respect ofthe matters for which the Finn wil be engaged, nor wil such
services impair the Firm's abilty to represent the Debtors in the ordinary course in these

Chapter 1 i Cases.
8. In addition, although unascertainable at this time after due inquiry, due to

the magnitude of the Debtors' potential universe of creditors and the Firm's clients, the Firm
may have in the past represented, currently represent, and may in the future represent entities that

are claimants ofthe Debtors in matters entirely unrelated to the Debtors and their estates. The
Firm does not and wil not represent any such entity in connection with these pending Chapter i 1
Cases and does not have any relationship with any such entity, attorneys or accountants that

would be adverse to the Debtors or their estates.


9. In the past year, the Firm has rendered services that have not yet been

biled or that have been biled but with respect to which payment has not yet been received, but

all such services have been post-petition.


10. In light of

the foregoing, I believe that the Firm does not hold or represent

any interest materially adverse to the Debtors, their estates, creditors, or equity interest holders,

as identified to the Firm, with respect to the matters in which the firm wil be engaged.

1 1. Except as set forth herein, no promises have been received by the Firm or .

any partner, associate or other professional thereof as to compensation in connection with these

Chapter 11 Cases other than in accordance with the provisions of the Bankrptcy Code, the
Federal Rules of Bankptcy Procedure, the Local Rules of

Bankptcy Practice and Procedure


Delaware, and orders of

of

the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Distrct of

this Court.

12. The Firm further states that it has not shared, nor agreed to share any
compensation received in connection with these Chapter 11 Cases with another party or person,

other than as permitted by section 504(b) ofthe Banruptcy Code and Bankruptcy Rule 2016.
13. To the extent that the Debtors and the Firm are party to an engagement

agreement and contemplate that the terms and conditions of

that agreement wil govern this

engagement, a copy of the agreement is attached to this Affdavit.

The foregoing constitutes the statement of the Finn pursuant to sections 329 and
504 of the Banptcy Code and Federal Rules of

Bankruptcy Procedure 2014 and 2016(b).

I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States of America
that the foregoing is true and correct.
