To better understand the local context and engage early with stakeholders Kosmos established an office in Paramaribo in 2012. Investing in a community and stakeholder relationships prior to any exploration drilling is a key part of Kosmos strategy in every country where we operate. MANAGING OUR FOOTPRINT Suriname is a country with a pristine environment with 386 kilometers of coastline much of which is man- groves. These mangroves protect coastal areas from erosion and flood- ing. Kosmos will be supporting efforts to preserve mangrove forests in the Coronie district and raise awareness of the role that mangroves play in protecting the coastline through edu- cation efforts in local schools. ENGAGEMENT AND LISTENING As part of our corporate commitment to build local expertise and protect the environment we have engaged with government stakeholders on the need to develop and implement a National Oil Spill Contingency Plan in Suriname prior to an expected increase in industry activities offshore during 2015 and beyond. Kosmos is the industry representative on a multi-stakeholder committee tasked with developing the Contingency Plan. We will continue to fully support Staatsolie Surinames national oil company and other organizations on this initiative in the coming year. Further in 2015 we plan to conduct local consultations as part of the Environmental and Social Impact As- sessment for our future drilling plans offshore Suriname. The results of this assessment will be captured in our Kosmos position offshore Suriname represents the expansion of our portfolio into South America. Kosmos holds a 50 percent working interest in Block 42 and Block 45. This position provides an exciting opportunity to explore the Upper Cretaceous stratigraphic play type along the northeast margin of South America.
