  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">On
  May&nbsp;9, 2008, Forest entered into the First Amendment (the &#147;First Amendment&#148;)
  to its second amended and restated combined credit agreements dated as of June&nbsp;6,
  2007.&#160; The First Amendment exercises an
  accordion option to increase the commitments under the combined credit
  agreements from $1,000,000,000 up to $1,800,000,000, establishes the global
  borrowing base at $1,800,000,000, and amends certain definitions and covenants.&#160;&#160; The amended credit agreements consist of a
  $1,650,000,000 U.S. credit facility (the &#147;U.S. Facility&#148;) with a syndicate of
  banks led by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., and a $150,000,000 Canadian credit
  facility (the &#147;Canadian Facility&#148;, and together with the U.S. Facility, the &#147;Credit
  Facilities&#148;) with a syndicate of banks led by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.,
  Toronto Branch.&#160; The Credit Facilities
  will mature in June&nbsp;2012.</font></p>
  
  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
  
  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Forest&#146;s
  availability under the Credit Facilities is governed by a borrowing base
  (Global Borrowing Base) which is set at $1,800,000,000, with $1,650,000,000
  allocated to the U.S. credit facility and $150,000,000 allocated to the
  Canadian credit facility.&#160; The
  determination of the Global Borrowing Base is made by the lenders in their sole
  discretion taking into consideration the estimated value of Forest&#146;s oil and
  gas properties in accordance with the lenders&#146; customary practices for oil and
  gas loans.&#160; The Global Borrowing Base is
  redetermined semi-annually and the available borrowing amount could be increased
  or decreased as a result of such redeterminations.&#160; In addition, Forest and the lenders each have
  discretion at any time, but not more often than once during any calendar year,
  to have the Global Borrowing Base redetermined. The Global Borrowing Base is
  also subject to automatic adjustment under certain circumstances. In the event
  Forest issues senior notes after May&nbsp;9, 2008, the Global Borrowing Base
  will immediately be reduced by an amount equal to $0.30 of every $1.00
  principal amount of newly issued senior notes (excluding any senior notes that
  Forest may issue to refinance senior notes outstanding on May&nbsp;9, 2008).</font></p>

  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
  Credit Facilities include terms and covenants that place limitations on certain
  types of activities, including restrictions or requirements with respect to
  additional debt, liens, asset sales, hedging activities, investments,
  dividends, mergers and acquisitions, and also include financial covenants.</font></p>
  
  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
  
  <p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Under
  certain conditions, amounts outstanding under the Credit Facilities may be
  accelerated.&#160; Bankruptcy and insolvency
  events with respect to Forest or certain of its subsidiaries will result in an
  automatic acceleration of the indebtedness under the Credit Facilities.&#160; Subject to notice and cure periods in certain
  cases, other events of default under either of the Credit Facilities will
  result in acceleration of the indebtedness under the facilities at the option
  of the lenders.&#160; Such other events of
  default include non-payment, breach of warranty, non-performance of obligations
  under the Credit Facilities (including financial covenants), default on other
  indebtedness, certain pension plan events, certain adverse judgments, change of
  control, a failure of the liens securing the Credit Facilities, and an event of
  default under the Canadian Facility.</font></p>

  security interest in the greater of 75% of the present value of its consolidated
  proved oil and gas properties, or 1.875 multiplied by the allocated U.S.
  borrowing base.&#160;&#160; Forest is also required
  to and has pledged to the lenders the stock of several of its subsidiaries to
  secure the Credit Facilities.&#160; Under
  certain circumstances, Forest will be obligated to pledge additional assets as
  collateral.&#160;&#160; If Forest&#146;s corporate
  credit ratings by Moody&#146;s and S&amp;P meet pre-established levels, the
  collateral requirements would cease to apply and, at Forest&#146;s request, the
  banks would release their liens and security interest on Forest&#146;s properties.</font></p>

  Item 1.01.              Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
  On
  May 9, 2008, Forest entered into the First Amendment (the "First Amendment")
  to its second amended and restated combined credit agreements dated as of June 6,
  2007.  The First Amendment exercises an
  accordion option to increase the commitments under the combined credit
  agreements from $1,000,000,000 up to $1,800,000,000, establishes the global
  borrowing base at $1,800,000,000, and amends certain definitions and covenants.   The amended credit agreements consist of a
  $1,650,000,000 U.S. credit facility (the "U.S. Facility") with a syndicate of
  banks led by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., and a $150,000,000 Canadian credit
  facility (the "Canadian Facility", and together with the U.S. Facility, the "Credit
  Facilities") with a syndicate of banks led by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.,
  Toronto Branch.  The Credit Facilities
  will mature in June 2012.
  Forest's
  availability under the Credit Facilities is governed by a borrowing base
  (Global Borrowing Base) which is set at $1,800,000,000, with $1,650,000,000
  allocated to the U.S. credit facility and $150,000,000 allocated to the
  Canadian credit facility.  The
  determination of the Global Borrowing Base is made by the lenders in their sole
  discretion taking into consideration the estimated value of Forest's oil and
  gas properties in accordance with the lenders' customary practices for oil and
  gas loans.  The Global Borrowing Base is
  redetermined semi-annually and the available borrowing amount could be increased
  or decreased as a result of such redeterminations.  In addition, Forest and the lenders each have
  discretion at any time, but not more often than once during any calendar year,
  to have the Global Borrowing Base redetermined. The Global Borrowing Base is
  also subject to automatic adjustment under certain circumstances. In the event
  Forest issues senior notes after May 9, 2008, the Global Borrowing Base
  will immediately be reduced by an amount equal to $0.30 of every $1.00
  principal amount of newly issued senior notes (excluding any senior notes that
  Forest may issue to refinance senior notes outstanding on May 9, 2008).
  The
  Credit Facilities include terms and covenants that place limitations on certain
  types of activities, including restrictions or requirements with respect to
  additional debt, liens, asset sales, hedging activities, investments,
  dividends, mergers and acquisitions, and also include financial covenants.
  Under
  certain conditions, amounts outstanding under the Credit Facilities may be
  accelerated.  Bankruptcy and insolvency
  events with respect to Forest or certain of its subsidiaries will result in an
  automatic acceleration of the indebtedness under the Credit Facilities.  Subject to notice and cure periods in certain
  cases, other events of default under either of the Credit Facilities will
  result in acceleration of the indebtedness under the facilities at the option
  of the lenders.  Such other events of
  default include non-payment, breach of warranty, non-performance of obligations
  under the Credit Facilities (including financial covenants), default on other
  indebtedness, certain pension plan events, certain adverse judgments, change of
  control, a failure of the liens securing the Credit Facilities, and an event of
  default under the Canadian Facility.
  2
  The Credit Facilities are collateralized by Forest's assets.  Forest is required to mortgage, and grant a
  security interest in the greater of 75% of the present value of its consolidated
  proved oil and gas properties, or 1.875 multiplied by the allocated U.S.
  borrowing base.   Forest is also required
  to and has pledged to the lenders the stock of several of its subsidiaries to
  secure the Credit Facilities.  Under
  certain circumstances, Forest will be obligated to pledge additional assets as
  collateral.   If Forest's corporate
  credit ratings by Moody's and S&P meet pre-established levels, the
  collateral requirements would cease to apply and, at Forest's request, the
  banks would release their liens and security interest on Forest's properties.
  From time to time, Forest and the syndication
  agents, documentation agents, global administrative agent and the other lenders
  party to the Credit Facilities engage in other transactions, including securities
  offerings where such parties or their affiliates may serve as an underwriter or
  initial purchaser of Forest's securities and/or serve as counterparties to
  Forest's derivative agreements.
