text: The primary components of our executive compensation program consist of long-term equity incentive awards, the opportunity 
  to receive an annual performance cash bonus, and base salary. We generally target each component, as well as the aggregate of 
  the components, at between approximately the 25th and 50th percentile of market compensation comparable within a group of 
  similarly-sized ASX and U.S. listed oil and gas exploration and production companies. Individual compensation levels may vary 
  from these targets based on performance, expertise, experience, or other factors unique to the individual or the Company. We 
  also provide retirement and other benefits typical for our peer group.
