Cautionary Statement
                                            CAUTIONARY STATEMENT RELEVANT TO FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
                                                  FOR THE PURPOSE OF “SAFE HARBOR” PROVISIONS OF THE
                                                   PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995


                 This presentation of Chevron Corporation contains forward-looking statements relating to Chevron’s operations that are based on
                 management’s current expectations, estimates and projections about the petroleum, chemicals and other energy-related industries.
                 Words such as “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “targets,” “projects,” “believes,” “seeks,” “schedules,” “estimates,” “budgets”
                 and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future
                 performance and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond our control and are difficult to
                 predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in such forward-looking
                 statements. The reader should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this
                 presentation. Unless legally required, Chevron undertakes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as
                 a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
                 Among the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements are crude-
                 oil and natural-gas prices; refining, marketing and chemicals margins; actions of competitors; timing of exploration expenses; the
                 competitiveness of alternate energy sources or product substitutes; technological developments; the results of operations and financial
                 condition of equity affiliates; the inability or failure of the company’s joint-venture partners to fund their share of operations and
                 development activities; the potential failure to achieve expected net production from existing and future crude-oil and natural-gas
                 development projects; potential delays in the development, construction or start-up of planned projects; the potential disruption or
                 interruption of the company’s net production or manufacturing facilities or delivery/transportation networks due to war, accidents,
                 political events, civil unrest, severe weather or crude-oil production quotas that might be imposed by OPEC (Organization of Petroleum
                 Exporting Countries); the potential liability for remedial actions or assessments under existing or future environmental regulations and
                 litigation; significant investment or product changes under existing or future environmental statutes, regulations and litigation; the
                 potential liability resulting from pending or future litigation; the company’s acquisition or disposition of assets; gains and losses from
                 asset dispositions or impairments; government-mandated sales, divestitures, recapitalizations, industry-specific taxes, changes in fiscal
                 terms or restrictions on scope of company operations; foreign currency movements compared with the U.S. dollar; the effects of
                 changed accounting rules under generally accepted accounting principles promulgated by rule-setting bodies; and the factors set forth
                 under the heading “Risk Factors” on pages 32 and 33 of the company’s 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A. In addition, such
                 statements could be affected by general domestic and international economic and political conditions. Unpredictable or unknown factors
                 not discussed in this report could also have material adverse effects on forward-looking statements.
                 U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) rules permit oil and gas companies to disclose only proved reserves in their filings with
                 the SEC. Certain terms, such as “resources,” “undeveloped gas resources,” “oil in place,” “recoverable reserves,” and “recoverable
                 resources,” among others, may be used in this presentation to describe certain oil and gas properties that are not permitted to be used
                 in filings with the SEC. In addition, SEC regulations define oil-sands reserves as mining-related and not a part of conventional oil and
                 gas reserves.

  • 2. Cautionary Statement CAUTIONARY STATEMENT RELEVANT TO FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION FOR THE PURPOSE OF “SAFE HARBOR” PROVISIONS OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995 This presentation of Chevron Corporation contains forward-looking statements relating to Chevron’s operations that are based on management’s current expectations, estimates and projections about the petroleum, chemicals and other energy-related industries. Words such as “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “targets,” “projects,” “believes,” “seeks,” “schedules,” “estimates,” “budgets” and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond our control and are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in such forward-looking statements. The reader should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this presentation. Unless legally required, Chevron undertakes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Among the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements are crude- oil and natural-gas prices; refining, marketing and chemicals margins; actions of competitors; timing of exploration expenses; the competitiveness of alternate energy sources or product substitutes; technological developments; the results of operations and financial condition of equity affiliates; the inability or failure of the company’s joint-venture partners to fund their share of operations and development activities; the potential failure to achieve expected net production from existing and future crude-oil and natural-gas development projects; potential delays in the development, construction or start-up of planned projects; the potential disruption or interruption of the company’s net production or manufacturing facilities or delivery/transportation networks due to war, accidents, political events, civil unrest, severe weather or crude-oil production quotas that might be imposed by OPEC (Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries); the potential liability for remedial actions or assessments under existing or future environmental regulations and litigation; significant investment or product changes under existing or future environmental statutes, regulations and litigation; the potential liability resulting from pending or future litigation; the company’s acquisition or disposition of assets; gains and losses from asset dispositions or impairments; government-mandated sales, divestitures, recapitalizations, industry-specific taxes, changes in fiscal terms or restrictions on scope of company operations; foreign currency movements compared with the U.S. dollar; the effects of changed accounting rules under generally accepted accounting principles promulgated by rule-setting bodies; and the factors set forth under the heading “Risk Factors” on pages 32 and 33 of the company’s 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A. In addition, such statements could be affected by general domestic and international economic and political conditions. Unpredictable or unknown factors not discussed in this report could also have material adverse effects on forward-looking statements. U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) rules permit oil and gas companies to disclose only proved reserves in their filings with the SEC. Certain terms, such as “resources,” “undeveloped gas resources,” “oil in place,” “recoverable reserves,” and “recoverable resources,” among others, may be used in this presentation to describe certain oil and gas properties that are not permitted to be used in filings with the SEC. In addition, SEC regulations define oil-sands reserves as mining-related and not a part of conventional oil and gas reserves. 2 © 2008 Chevron Corporation. All Rights Reserved.
