Precision Drilling Corporation 2015 Annual Information Form         3

Three-Year History
	Recent Developments
	Industry Conditions In 2016, we expect lower drilling activity levels and pricing pressure on spot market drilling rigs in North America as lower oil prices have caused energy producers to significantly reduce drilling budgets. We expect Tier 1 rigs to remain the preferred drilling rigs of customers globally and that we will benefit from our completed fleet enhancements.
	Suspension of Dividend On February 11, 2016, Precision announced the suspension of its dividend. See Our Capital Structure – Common Shares – Dividends, on page 15.
	2015
	Industry Conditions The oilfield services business is inherently cyclical in nature. In 2015, a substantial decline in global oil prices led to a significant decline in North American drilling activity levels. We undertook a number of measures to manage our variable costs during the industry downturn, including reducing our capital and operating expenditures. In addition, we reduced our fixed cost structure by consolidating several of our North American operating facilities, streamlining management reporting structures, and reducing staff. Despite demand uncertainties in most markets, we continued to expand our successful operations in Kuwait.
	Rig Fleet Upgrades We placed 17 newly constructed (or new-build) Super Series rigs into service under previously negotiated term contracts: three rigs in Canada, 13 rigs in the U.S., and one rig to Kuwait. We also delivered 10 upgraded drilling rigs: six in Canada, two in the U.S., and two in Mexico. These new and upgraded rigs were part of our 2015 capital expenditure program. We signed multi-year contracts for two new-build drilling rigs for Kuwait, which are expected to be deployed in 2017. See About Our Business – Contract Drilling Services – Drilling Fleet, on page 10.
	Capital Expenditures In 2015, our capital program totalled $459 million ($361 million for expansion capital, $49 million for upgrade capital, and $49 million for the maintenance of existing assets and infrastructure).
	Board of Directors On May 13, 2015, Mr. Patrick Murray retired from our Board of Directors, and Mr. Steven Krablin was subsequently elected to the Board.
	Senior Note Exchange Offer In April 2015, we completed an exchange offer of 5.25% senior unsecured notes due 2024 for an equal amount of senior unsecured notes that we issued by way of private placement in June 2014. The exchange notes were offered to satisfy certain obligations under the registration rights agreement entered into in connection with the June 2014 private placement. The terms of the exchange notes were materially identical to the notes issued in June 2014 except that the exchange notes are freely tradeable in the United States. No proceeds were received from the exchange offer.
	Amendments to Senior Credit Facility Due to the precipitous decline in global oil prices and uncertain industry outlook, on March 27, 2015, we amended certain financial covenants under our syndicated senior secured credit facility (as amended, the Senior Credit Facility), to provide for temporary covenant relief. On October 27, 2015, we further amended the financial covenants under our Senior Credit Facility to provide for additional temporary relief and reduced the size of the Senior Credit Facility to US$550 million from US$650 million. See Our Capital Structure – Material Debt – Senior Credit Facility, on page 17.
	Tax Reassessment In March 2015, the Supreme Court of Canada denied the Ontario Minister of Revenue’s application for leave to appeal the Ontario Court of Appeal decision dated August 7, 2014, in favour of Precision’s wholly-owned subsidiary Inter-Leasing, Inc. The decision concerned reassessments for Ontario income tax for Inter-Leasing, Inc.’s 2001 through 2004 taxation years. In April 2015, we received payment of $69 million from the Ontario tax authorities, representing $55 million for the refund of assessed taxes and $14 million in interest. See Legal Proceedings and Regulatory Actions on page 32.
	Asset Write Downs We decommissioned 79 drilling rigs along with certain spare equipment and recognized asset decommissioning charges of $166 million. We also recorded impairment charges to property, plant and equipment of $282 million and a goodwill impairment charge of $17 million.

2014

Industry Conditions

The oilfield services business is inherently cyclical in nature. Industry momentum at the end of 2013 continued into 2014 as customers in North America focused on unconventional oil and natural gas liquids targets. In late 2014, however, global oversupply drove oil prices down sharply, and the energy industry rapidly adjusted activity levels to a lower price environment. Despite the downturn, our expansion continued, on the strength of demand for our Tier 1 assets.

Rig Fleet

We added 15 new-build Super Series rigs to our fleet under previously negotiated term contracts: five rigs in Canada, seven rigs in the U.S., and three rigs internationally.

We upgraded 12 drilling rigs (six of which were upgraded to Tier 1 status) under term contracts: five for Canada, six for the U.S., and one for the country of Georgia.

These new and upgraded rigs were part of our 2014 capital expenditure program.

See About Our Business – Contract Drilling Services – Drilling Fleet, on page 10.

Capital Expenditures

In 2014, our capital program totalled $857 million ($571 million for expansion capital, $137 million for upgrade capital, and $149 million for the maintenance of existing assets and infrastructure).

International Expansion

In the Middle East, we signed a multi-year contract for a new-build drilling rig in Saudi Arabia, which began operating late in 2014, and signed another contract in Kuwait for a new-build rig for deployment in 2015.

In March 2014, we announced the signing of multi-year contracts in Mexico for six drilling rigs, including re-contracting three existing rigs. As at the end of 2014, four of the rigs remained under contract.

In October 2014, we signed a term contract for a single drilling rig in the country of Georgia for deployment in 2015.

Strategic Alliance With Schlumberger

In July 2014, we entered into a technology and service agreement and marketing alliance with Schlumberger that enables us to market a full range of downhole technology, significantly enhancing our technology and service offering to customers.

Divestitures

In July 2014, we sold certain trucks and other related assets used to support drilling rig moving operations in Texas and New Mexico to a third party for proceeds of $26 million.

In November 2014, we divested our U.S. coil tubing assets for total cash consideration of $44 million.

Dividend Increase

For the first three quarters of 2014, we paid a quarterly dividend of $0.06 per common share. In the fourth quarter, we increased the dividend by 17% to $0.07 per common share.

See Our Capital Structure – Common Shares – Dividends, on page 15.

U.S. Senior Note Offering

In June 2014, we completed a US$400 million offering of 5.25% senior unsecured notes due 2024 (the 2024 Notes) in a private placement. Net proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes.

See Our Capital Structure – Material Debt, on page 17.

Amendments to Senior Credit Facility

In June 2014, we amended our Senior Credit Facility, voluntarily reducing the size of the Senior Credit Facility to US$650 million and extending the maturity date to June 3, 2019.

See Our Capital Structure – Material Debt – Senior Credit Facility, on page 17.

Tax Reassessment

In August 2014, the Ontario Court of Appeal ruled in favour of Precision’s wholly owned subsidiary, Inter-Leasing, Inc., reversing a prior decision by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice regarding the reassessment of Ontario income tax for Inter-Leasing, Inc.’s 2001 through 2004 taxation years. The Ontario Minister of Revenue subsequently made an application to the Supreme Court of Canada seeking leave to appeal the Ontario Court of Appeal decision.

See Legal Proceedings and Regulatory Actions on page 32.

Asset Write Downs

We decommissioned 29 drilling rigs, 35 well servicing rigs, and two snubbing units and recognized a $127 million non-cash pre-tax decommissioning charge. Certain components of the decommissioned equipment were used in our ongoing operations. We also recorded a $95 million impairment charge to goodwill.

Precision Drilling Corporation 2015 Annual Information Form         5

2013

Industry Conditions

The oilfield services business is inherently cyclical in nature. North American industry activity was down from the prior year as a result of volatile oil and natural gas prices, oil transportation bottlenecks resulting in regional oil price discounts, record inventory levels resulting in depressed natural gas prices, and general global economic uncertainty persisting for much of the year. Industry-wide, drilling utilization declined year over year in North America; however demand strengthened in the latter half of the year, particularly for higher specification Tier 1 drilling assets.

Rig Fleet Upgrades

We placed seven new-build Super Series rigs into service under previously negotiated term contracts: two rigs in Canada and five rigs in the U.S.

We also delivered 19 upgraded drilling rigs under term contracts: six in Canada, seven in the U.S., and six internationally (two in the Kurdistan region of Iraq and four in Mexico).

These new and upgraded rigs were part of our 2013 capital expenditure program.

See About Our Business – Contract Drilling Services – Drilling Fleet, on page 10.

Capital Expenditures

In 2013, our capital program totalled $536 million ($282 million for expansion capital, $141 million for upgrade capital, and $113 million for the maintenance of existing assets and infrastructure).

Board of Directors

On May 8, 2013, Mr. Robert Gibson retired from our Board of Directors, and Ms. Catherine Hughes was subsequently elected to the Board.

Dividend Increase

For the first three quarters of 2013, we paid a quarterly dividend of $0.05 per common share. In the fourth quarter, we increased the dividend by 20% to $0.06 per common share.

See Our Capital Structure – Common Shares – Dividends, on page 15.

Amendments to Senior Credit Facility

We amended our Senior Credit Facility, extending the maturity date by one year to November 17, 2018.

See Our Capital Structure – Material Debt – Senior Credit Facility, on page 17.

Shareholder Divestiture

On December 5, 2013, the Alberta Investment Management Corporation (AIMCo) sold its entire equity stake of approximately 56 million common shares in the capital of Precision in an overnight marketed transaction. This included the exercise of 15 million warrants of Precision, each exercisable for one common share, at an exercise price of $3.22 per common share for aggregate proceeds to Precision of $48 million.

Tax Reassessment

In June 2013, a wholly owned subsidiary of Precision, Inter-Leasing, Inc., lost a tax appeal in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice related to a reassessment of Ontario income tax for the 2001 through 2004 taxation years. Precision appealed the decision to the Ontario Court of Appeal.

See Legal Proceedings and Regulatory Actions on page 32.

Contract Drilling Services

Precision Drilling

At the end of 2015, we had a fleet of 251 land rigs deployed in Canada, the U.S. and internationally.

¡ Canada – we operated the largest fleet of land drilling rigs. We actively marketed 134 drilling rigs located throughout western Canada, accounting for approximately 19% of the industry’s estimated fleet of 721 drilling rigs.

¡ United States – we marketed 102 land drilling rigs, the fourth largest fleet, representing approximately 5% of the country’s estimated 2,260 total marketed land drilling rigs.

¡ Internationally – we had five land drilling rigs in Mexico, four in Saudi Arabia, three in Kuwait, two in the Kurdistan region of Iraq, and one in the country of Georgia.

Drilling Contracts

Our contract terms are generally based on the complexity and risk of operations, on-site drilling conditions, the type of equipment used, and the anticipated duration of the work to be performed.

Drilling contracts can be for single or multiple wells and can vary in length from a few days on shallow single-well applications to multiple-year, multiple-well drilling programs. Term drilling contracts typically have fixed utilization rates for a minimum of six months and include penalties for early termination, cost escalation provisions, and options for renewing the contract. Short-term contracts that provide drilling rigs on a well-to-well basis are typically subject to termination by the customer on short notice or with little or no penalty. Our new-build drilling rigs generally have two-to-five year term contracts in place before the rig is completed; in most cases contracts are in place before rig construction begins.

In 2015, we had term contracts for an average of 105 drilling rigs (46 in Canada, 47 in the U.S., and 12 internationally).

We market our drilling rigs mainly on a regional basis through sales and marketing personnel. We secure contracts to drill wells either through competitive bidding or as a result of relationships and negotiations with customers.

8         Precision Drilling Corporation 2015 Annual Information Form

Our contracts have been carried out almost exclusively on a daywork basis. Under a daywork contract:

¡ We provide a drilling rig with required personnel, and the customer supervises the drilling of the well.

¡ We charge the customer a fixed rate per day regardless of the number of days needed to drill the well.

¡ Contracts usually provide for a reduced day rate (or a lump sum amount) to mobilize the rig to the well location, to rig-up and rig-down on location, and to demobilize the rig.

¡ Generally we do not bear any of the costs arising from downhole risks.

We also drilled a very small number of wells in Alabama, Texas and Louisiana near the U.S. Gulf Coast (approximately 2% of our U.S. rig utilization in 2015) on a turnkey basis. Under a turnkey contract, we agree to drill a well to a certain depth for a fixed price. We assume higher risk under a turnkey contract and therefore generally have the potential for greater profit or loss.

Seasonality

Drilling and well servicing activity is affected by seasonal weather patterns and ground conditions. In Canada and the northern U.S., wet weather and the spring thaw make the ground unstable resulting in road restrictions that limit the movement of heavy oilfield equipment and reduce the level of drilling and well servicing activity during the second quarter of the year.

In northern Canada, some drilling sites can only be accessed in the winter once the terrain is frozen, which is usually late in the fourth quarter. Our business activity depends, at least in part, upon the severity and duration of the winter drilling season.

Competition

The land drilling industry is highly competitive and fragmented with the top 10 providers owning approximately 63% of the marketed rig fleet in the U.S. and approximately 75% of the industry fleet in Canada as of December 31, 2015.

Technology is increasingly differentiating the market, as the industry trends away from vertical wells to more demanding directional and horizontal drilling programs that require higher capacity rigs. Consequently, the rig market has been slowly shedding older, low technology rigs in favour of more powerful and efficient, high specification rigs better suited for horizontal wells.

Providing High Performance, High Value services to our customers is the core of our competitive strategy. We focus on providing efficient, cost-reducing drilling technology. Design innovations and technology improvements, such as multi-well pad capability and mobility between wells, capture incremental time savings during all phases of the well drilling process. The following factors, among others, minimize downtime and benefit our customers by lowering their well costs:

¡ using innovative and advanced drilling technology that is efficient

¡ managing preventive maintenance programs to minimize unplanned mechanical downtime

¡ establishing detailed inspection processes

¡ maintaining strategically located spare equipment

¡ having in-house supply chain management

¡ minimizing non-productive time.

At the end of 2015, we operated the largest fleet of land drilling rigs in Canada, and the fourth largest fleet in the U.S. We had a footprint in virtually all of the large North American resource plays, including the Bakken, Cardium, Duvernay, Lower Shaunavon, Montney, Horn River and Viking formations in Canada and the Bakken, Barnett, Eagle Ford, Granite Wash, Haynesville, Marcellus, Niobrara, Permian, Utica, and Uinta resource plays in the U.S.

Precision Drilling Corporation 2015 Annual Information Form         9

Drilling Fleet

Our drilling fleet is comprised almost entirely of Tier 1 rigs. Tier 1 rigs are highly mobile and automated, which make them safer and more efficient in drilling directional and horizontal wells than older generation drilling rigs. Our Tier 1 rigs, or Super Series rigs, have a broad range of features to meet a diverse range of customer needs, from drilling shallow- to medium-depth wells to exploiting the deep, unconventional shale plays that have driven the North American energy production boom over the past decade. Available features include alternating current (AC) power, digitized control systems, integrated top drive, bi-directional pad walking or skidding systems for multi-pad well drilling, highly mechanized pipe handling, and high capacity mud pumps. Our Super Series fleet also includes a number of smaller, fast-moving, hydraulically-powered mechanized rigs that are optimized for shallow- to medium-depth resource plays found across North America. Of the 251 rigs in our fleet as of December 31, 2015, 235 rigs were Tier 1 rigs.

Directional Drilling

Directional drilling involves using specialized tubulars and drill string components to establish and maintain the necessary trajectory of the drill bit to achieve a desired wellbore and bottom hole location in relation to the surface location. Directional equipment such as mud motors and measurement while drilling (MWD) systems (which monitor wellbore trajectory and formation characteristics in real time while drilling is in progress) are used in this process.

At the end of 2015, we had capacity for approximately 80 concurrent directional drilling jobs in Canada and the U.S. with operational, technical and maintenance facilities in both countries. Centres in Calgary, Alberta and Houston, Texas manage directional drilling operations in the field in real-time.

Grey Wolf International

Grey Wolf International (Grey Wolf) is our platform for the international oil and natural gas drilling market. Grey Wolf is actively exploring opportunities in various international markets. International oilfield service operations involve relatively long sales cycles with bidding periods, contract award periods and rig mobilization periods measured in months. Grey Wolf has a regional office in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

At the end of 2015, Grey Wolf had five land drilling rigs in Mexico, four in Saudi Arabia, three in Kuwait, two in the Kurdistan region of Iraq, and one in the country of Georgia.

Rostel Industries

Based in Canada, Rostel Industries manufactures custom drilling rigs and manufactures and refurbishes drilling rig and service rig components. Rostel Industries supports our vertical integration, and approximately 92% of its revenue in 2015 was related to Precision business. Having the in-house ability to repair or provide new components for either drilling or service rigs also improves the efficiency and reliability of our fleets.

Columbia Oilfield Supply and PD Supply

Columbia Oilfield Supply in Canada and PD Supply in the U.S. are general supply warehouses that procure, package and distribute large volumes of consumable oilfield supplies. The two supply warehouses achieve economies of scale through bulk purchasing and standardized product selection and then coordinate distribution to Precision rig sites. Columbia Oilfield Supply and PD Supply play a key role in our supply chain management. In 2015, 100% of their oilfield supply activities supported Precision operations. This reduces the administrative workload for field personnel and enhances our competitiveness.

10         Precision Drilling Corporation 2015 Annual Information Form

Completion and Production Services

Precision Well Servicing

Precision Well Servicing offers a versatile fleet of service rigs for well completion, workover, abandonment, maintenance and re-entry preparation services as well as snubbing units and coil tubing units for pressure control services. The fleet is strategically positioned throughout western Canada and in the northern U.S. In late 2014, we divested our U.S. coil tubing assets.

Well Service Activities

Well servicing and pressure control jobs are generally of short duration, preferably conducted during daylight hours, so it is important for a service rig to be close to customer demand and able to move quickly from one site to another. Well servicing requires a unique skill set; crews must deal with the potential dangers and safety concerns of working with pressurized wellbores. Completion, workover, or pressure control services can take a few days to several weeks to complete depending on the depth of the well and the complexity of the completion or workover.

At the end of 2015, Precision Well Servicing had a Canadian industry market share, based on operating hours, of approximately 11% with a fleet of 140 service rigs, the largest in western Canada, compared to a Canadian industry fleet average of approximately 1,000 service rigs. We also operated eight service rigs in the U.S.

Service Rig Fleet

The table below shows the configuration of the Precision Well Servicing fleet as at December 31, 2015. The fleet’s operating features are detailed on our website.

Type of Service Rig	Size		Total
Mobile Rigs
Highly mobile, efficient rig up and rig down, minimal surface disturbance,		Single		68
freestanding design eliminates anchoring		Double		48
Freestanding rigs comprise 78% of the fleet		Slant		20
Skid Mounted Rigs
Designed for deeper wells with multi-zone completions or re-completions,		Double		12
service jobs are generally of longer duration so rigs move less often
Total				148

Service Rig Activities

Well servicing operations have two distinct functions – completions and workovers. The demand for completion services is generally more volatile than for workover services.

Of our total oil and natural gas well service rig activity in Canada in 2015:

¡ workovers and abandonments accounted for approximately 87%

¡ completions accounted for approximately 13%.

Completions – Customers often contract a smaller, specialized service rig to take over from a larger, more expensive drilling rig to prepare a newly drilled well for initial production. The service rig and crew work jointly with other services to open and stimulate the producing zones for initial production.

The demand for well completion services is related to the level of drilling activity in a region.

Precision Drilling Corporation 2015 Annual Information Form         11

Workovers – Workover services are generally provided according to customer preventive maintenance schedules or on a call-out basis when a well needs major repairs or modifications. Workover services generally involve remedial work such as repairing or replacing equipment in the well, enhancing production, re-completing a new producing zone, recovering lost equipment, or abandoning the well.

Producing oil and natural gas wells generally require some type of workover or maintenance during their life cycle. The demand for production or workover services is based on the total number of existing active wells and their age and producing characteristics.

Pressure Control Services

Snubbing Services – Snubbing units can be employed to provide a wide range of services. While traditional well servicing operations require pressure in a well to be neutralized, or ‘killed’, using fluids (potentially impairing production) in order to safely perform the services, snubbing units perform certain workover and completion activities under pressure (without killing the well). Snubbing units are equipped with specialized snubbing devices, which allow tubing to be installed in or removed from a well, or ‘snubbed’, while the well is under pressure and production has been suspended.

At the end of 2015, we marketed five portable hydraulic rig-assist snubbing units and six self-contained snubbing units in western Canada.

Rig-assist units work with a service rig to complete the snubbing activity for a well. Self-contained units do not require a service rig on site and are capable of snubbing and many other services traditionally performed by a service rig.

Coil Tubing Services – Coil tubing units use a continuous (non-jointed) reel of tubing to perform completion, workover and stimulation services. Coil tubing provides certain advantages over conventional service rigs, including working on a well without having to kill it and servicing highly deviated and horizontal wells.

Coil tubing units are highly mobile, rig-up and rig-down in a short time, increase operating efficiency, and have a relatively small environmental footprint. These units also operate more efficiently because continuous tubing eliminates jointed tubing connections.

At the end of 2015, we operated four coil tubing units in western Canada.

Precision Rentals

Precision Rentals provides approximately 2,400 pieces of oilfield rental equipment from five operating centres and 11 stocking points throughout western Canada, supported by a technical service centre in central Alberta. Precision also has approximately 170 pieces of rental equipment in the northern U.S. Most exploration and production companies do not own the specialty equipment used in oil and natural gas operations and rely on suppliers like Precision Rentals for access to large inventories of drilling, completion and production equipment.

Precision Rentals has five distinct product categories:

¡ surface equipment (including environmental invert drilling mud storage, hydraulic fracturing fluid storage, production tanks and other fluid handling equipment)

¡ wellsite accommodations (fully equipped units that provide on-site office and lodging for field personnel)

¡ small-flow wastewater treatment facilities

¡ power generation equipment

¡ solids control equipment.

Precision Camp Services

Precision Camp Services provides food and accommodation to personnel working at the wellsite, typically in remote locations in western Canada. At the end of 2015, Precision Camp Services had 46 drill camps and four base camps in western Canada. Each mobile camp includes five or six building units that typically accommodate 20 to 25 members of a rig crew and other personnel and, if required, individual dormitory units that accommodate up to 45 additional personnel.

Precision Camp Services has also configured several camps and dormitories to provide housing and meals for base camps with up to 500 personnel on separate major projects in western Canada. As the oil and natural gas industry searches for new reserves in more remote locations, crews need to stay near the worksite, often in camps, throughout the duration of a drilling program. Precision Camp Services serves Precision and other companies in the upstream oil and natural gas sector and, from time to time, other industries operating in remote locations.

Terra Water Systems

Terra Water Systems provides customers with portable wastewater handling, treatment and disposal facilities, potable water production plants, and potable water delivery systems for remote sites in western Canada.

Terra Water Systems has 10 large-flow wastewater treatment plants, eight potable water production plants and 24 pump houses that are used in base camp and other large remote work site markets. These treatment facilities provide an environmentally sound solution to treating wastewater, eliminating the traditional tank-and-haul process and concerns about the timing, hauling and disposal of effluent. Technical staff visit each treatment facility regularly to conduct sampling and independent laboratory effluent testing as part of their system management. The wastewater treatment plants are designed to be easy to operate. They provide quality treatment of effluent, eliminate odors, and align with existing environmental, health and safety regulations for surface release of treated wastewater.

Health, Safety and the Environment

We have a long-standing commitment to health, safety and the environment in all aspects of our operations. Our Target Zero vision promotes continuous safety improvement through awareness and risk reduction and fosters a culture that is never complacent about an injury. We recognize the potential risks at job sites and work to reduce them so we achieve our goal of zero injuries.

In 2015, we achieved our best ever safety record as measured by the industry standard of total recordable injury frequency. Our total recordable injury frequency decreased by 64% and our lost-time accident frequency decreased by 58% compared to 2014.

We continuously review our rig designs and components and use advanced technologies to improve the life cycle, maintain safety and operational efficiency, reduce energy use, and manage our energy and resources. A number of our rigs have some or all of the following features:

Power	¡	use AC electric power generation, distribution and control systems that incorporate variable frequency drive technologies that increase efficiency and reduce fuel consumption
	¡	generate heat efficiently by directing air flow from radiators on power generation engines to heat surrounding rig buildings
	¡	use alternative power sources to generate heat in cold operating conditions and alternative fuels for generating power
Engines	¡	have high-efficiency diesel engines that meet regulatory emission specifications
	¡	have advanced muffler systems to reduce noise pollution
Engine radiator systems	¡	have variable pitch fans to reduce horsepower requirements for cooling and ventilation
Rig drawworks	¡	use regenerative braking to eliminate brake noise from conventional band brake systems and return power back into the power supply of the rigs

Precision Drilling Corporation 2015 Annual Information Form         13

We recognize the importance of climate change and our impact on the environment. Our rigs are designed for high efficiency moving, which reduces the number of trucks needed to relocate a rig to a new customer site. They are also designed and constructed with a ‘reduced footprint’, requiring less surface land area to operate. The design of our rig pad is beneficial for high well density drilling programs because it needs less surface area to operate and eliminates the need for trucks to move between well centres. We also use spill containment devices under our equipment to minimize potential spills around the drill site and limit environmental exposure.

We have introduced the use of low carbon emission natural gas engines and bi-fuel systems, and we continue to assess alternative fuel types, other methods of power, heat generation, noise abatement, lowering carbon emissions, and systems for recovering waste energy.

Technical Centres

We operate two drilling technical centres, one in Nisku, Alberta and the other in Houston, Texas. We also operate one completion and production services technical centre in Red Deer, Alberta. These centres accommodate our technical service and field training groups and enable us to consolidate support and training for our operations. The Houston facility includes a fully functioning training rig with the latest drilling technologies. In 2015, we trained approximately 1,700 people at our training facilities.

Our People

We had 4,337 employees at the end of 2015. The majority of our employees work on our drilling and service rigs and are compensated on an hourly basis. Seasonality and economic conditions affect our drilling activity and have a more dramatic impact on hourly than salaried employees.

The market for experienced personnel in the oilfield services industry can be competitive because of the cyclical nature of the work, uncertainty of continuing employment, and generally higher rates of employment during periods of high oil and gas prices.

We rely on experienced, well trained personnel. We invest in systems and processes to support employee training, development, leadership and retention. Our talent management system helps us actively develop and retain people in key positions as well as top performers and potential future leaders. Programs include skill development around leadership, communication and corporate values, and our compensation program focuses on retaining experienced field personnel during all market cycles, targeted recruitment initiatives, and a performance management system that links compensation to the achievement of specific corporate and individual goals.

Performance excellence is measured through our safety record and reputation, as these help us attract and retain employees when manpower shortages are experienced in the industry during peak operating periods. Our priority is retaining experienced employees, particularly in driller, rig manager and field superintendent positions.

Dividends

In December 2012, the Board approved an annualized dividend of $0.20 per common share, payable quarterly ($0.05 per quarter). In November 2013, the Board increased the quarterly rate by 20% to $0.06 per common share ($0.24 per common share annualized), and in November 2014, the Board increased the quarterly rate by 17% to $0.07 per common share ($0.28 per common share annualized).

Our Senior Credit Facility allows the payment of dividends so long as no default or event of default has occurred.

Each note indenture governing our outstanding senior unsecured notes restricts our ability to make certain payments, including the payment of dividends, if Precision is in default or if it is not able to incur additional indebtedness under certain circumstances or if the accumulated amount of restricted payments (restricted payments basket) would breach certain covenants set forth in the indentures. The restricted payments basket grows by, among other things, 50% of the consolidated net earnings and decreases by 100% of consolidated net losses (each as defined in the note indentures) and payments made to shareholders.

On February 11, 2016, we suspended the quarterly dividend. Based on our consolidated financial results for the period ended December 31, 2015, the restricted payments basket was negative $152 million, therefore prohibiting us from making any further dividend payments until the restricted payments basket once again becomes positive.

Shareholder Rights Plan

On June 1, 2010, we converted from an income trust (Precision Drilling Trust) to a corporation. When unitholders of Precision Drilling Trust approved the plan of arrangement for us to convert to a corporate structure, they also approved the adoption of a shareholder rights plan. The plan is designed to protect the rights of all shareholders and maximize value if there is ever a take-over bid for Precision. Under our shareholder rights plan agreement (Shareholder Rights Plan Agreement) with Computershare Trust Company of Canada (Computershare), we issued one right for each common share outstanding at the close of business on June 1, 2010, and one right for each additional common share issued after that date, subject to the terms and conditions of the plan.

Shareholders confirmed the continuation and revisions to the plan at the 2013 annual and special meeting of shareholders.

Preferred Shares

The number of preferred shares that may be authorized for issue at any time cannot exceed more than half of the number of issued and outstanding common shares. There are currently no preferred shares issued and outstanding.

We can issue preferred shares in one or more series. The Board must pass a resolution determining the number of shares in each series, and the designation, rights, privileges, restrictions, and conditions for each series, before the shares can be issued. This includes the rate or amount of dividends, when and where dividends are paid, the dates dividends accrue from any rights or obligations for us to buy or redeem the shares, and the price, terms and conditions, and any conversion rights.

Material Debt

As at December 31, 2015, we had:

¡ US$550 million (excluding outstanding letters of credit of US$46 million) available under the Senior Credit Facility

¡ US$650 million outstanding under the 2010 offering of 6.625% senior unsecured notes due 2020 (the 2020 Notes)

¡ $200 million outstanding under the 2011 offering of 6.50% senior unsecured notes due 2019 (the 2019 Notes)

¡ US$400 million outstanding under the 2011 offering of 6.50% senior unsecured notes due 2021 (the 2021 Notes)

¡ US$400 million outstanding under the 2014 offering of 5.25% senior unsecured notes due 2024 (the 2024 Notes).

The following is a summary of the material terms of the Senior Credit Facility, the 2020 Notes, the 2019 Notes, the 2021 Notes, and the 2024 Notes. Copies of the note indenture governing the 2020 Notes (the 2020 Note Indenture), the note indenture governing the 2019 Notes (the 2019 Note Indenture), the note indenture governing the 2021 Notes (the 2021 Note Indenture), and the note indenture governing the 2024 Notes (the 2024 Note Indenture) are available on SEDAR and EDGAR.

Senior Credit Facility

We entered into the Senior Credit Facility with a syndicate of lenders and the Royal Bank of Canada as administrative agent in 2010.

The Senior Credit Facility is an extendible revolving term credit facility that is used for general corporate purposes and is secured by liens on substantially all of our present and future assets and the present and future assets of our material U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries (including subsidiaries we have designated material, collectively the Material Subsidiaries, as set out in the Senior Credit Facility). The Senior Credit Facility includes representations and warranties, covenants and events of default that are customary for transactions of this nature, including financial ratio covenants that are tested quarterly.

On March 27, 2015, we amended certain financial covenants under the credit agreement governing our Senior Credit Facility to, among other things, temporarily increase the maximum consolidated total debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio (as defined in the debt agreement) to 6:1 from 4:1 and temporarily reduce the minimum interest coverage ratio to 2.5:1 from 2.75:1, in each case until December 31, 2016.

On October 27, 2015, we further amended the credit agreement, whereby we reduced the size of the Senior Credit Facility to US$550 million from US$650 million and eliminated the consolidated total debt to adjusted EBITDA financial covenant ratio in its entirety. We further decreased the minimum interest coverage ratio to 2:1 from 2.5:1 for a temporary period up to and including December 31, 2017, which will revert to 2.5:1 thereafter until the maturity date of the facility. We also reduced the maximum consolidated senior debt to adjusted EBITDA financial covenant ratio to 2.5:1 from 3:1 and added a new debt covenant whereby we agreed to not incur or assume more than US$250 million in new unsecured debt other than where the new unsecured debt is used to refinance existing unsecured debt or the new debt is assumed through an acquisition.

We were in compliance with all debt and financial ratio covenants at December 31, 2015.

Operating Facilities

We have a $40 million secured operating facility, a US$15 million secured operating facility, and a US$40 million secured facility for letters of credit. Availability of the $40 million operating facility was reduced by outstanding letters of credit of $25 million. Availability of the US$40 million secured facility for letters of credit was reduced by outstanding letters of credit of US$25 million. No amount was drawn on the US$15 million secured operating facility with the full US$15 million remaining available for drawdown. The facilities are primarily secured by charges on substantially all of our present and future property and of our Material Subsidiaries. Advances under the $40 million operating facility are available at a margin over the banks’ prime Canadian lending rate, United States base rate, LIBOR, or Bankers’ Acceptance rate, or in combination, and under the US$15 million facility at the banks’ prime lending rate. Issuance fees at agreed rates are payable on the amounts of any letters of credit outstanding under the $40 million operating facility and the US$40 million letter of credit facility.

Moody’s credit rating is their opinion of our ability to honour senior unsecured financial obligations and contracts	¡	Moody’s rating of B is the sixth highest of nine categories and denotes obligations considered speculative and are subject to high credit risk
	¡	a 1, 2 or 3 modifier after a rating indicates the relative standing within a particular rating category. The modifier 1 indicates that the issue ranks in the higher end of its generic rating category, 2 indicates a mid-range ranking and 3 indicates a ranking in the lower end of the generic rating category
S&P	¡	rating scale from AAA to D, which represents the range from highest to lowest quality
S&P’s credit rating is a forward-looking opinion about our overall financial capacity (or creditworthiness) to pay our financial obligations
	¡	a credit rating of BB by S&P is the fifth highest of 10 categories
	¡	under the S&P rating system, an obligor with debt securities rated BB is less vulnerable in the near-term than other lower-rated obligors, but faces major ongoing uncertainties and exposure to adverse business, financial or economic conditions that could lead to the obligor’s inadequate capacity to meet its financial commitments
	¡	the addition of a plus (+) or minus (-) designation after the rating indicates the relative standing within a particular rating category

Credit ratings assigned by the rating agencies are not recommendations to buy, hold or sell the debt, and the ratings are not a comment on market price or suitability for a particular investor. There is no assurance that a rating will remain in effect for a given period or that any rating will not be revised or withdrawn entirely by a rating agency in the future if it believes circumstances warrant it. Credit ratings by different agencies are independent of one another and should be evaluated separately.

RISKS IN OUR BUSINESS

Investing in Precision shares has risk. Take some time to read about the risks described below and other important information in this AIF or our other disclosure documents before making an investment decision. You may also want to seek advice from an expert.

Our operations depend on the price of oil and natural gas

We sell our services to oil and natural gas exploration and production companies. Macroeconomic and geopolitical factors associated with oil and natural gas supply and demand are the primary factors driving pricing and profitability in the oilfield services industry. Generally, we experience high demand for our services when commodity prices are relatively high and the opposite is true when commodity prices are low. The volatility of crude oil and natural gas prices accounts for much of the cyclical nature of the oilfield services business.

The markets for oil and natural gas are separate and distinct. Oil is a global commodity with a vast distribution network, although the differential between benchmarks such as West Texas Intermediate, Western Canadian Select, and European Brent crude oil can fluctuate. As in all markets, when supply, demand, inability to access domestic or export markets and other factors change, so can the spreads between benchmarks. The most economical way to transport natural gas is in its gaseous state by pipeline, and the natural gas market depends on pipeline infrastructure and regional supply and demand. However, developments in the transportation of liquefied natural gas in ocean going tanker ships have introduced an element of globalization to the natural gas market.

Precision Drilling Corporation 2015 Annual Information Form         21

Worldwide military, political and economic events, such as conflict in the Middle East, expectations for global economic growth, or initiatives by the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and other major petroleum exporting countries, can affect supply and demand for oil and natural gas. Weather conditions, governmental regulation (in Canada and elsewhere), levels of consumer demand, the availability of pipeline capacity, U.S. and Canadian natural gas storage levels, and other factors beyond our control can also affect the supply of and demand for oil and natural gas and lead to future price volatility. A prolonged reduction in oil and natural gas prices would likely depress the level of exploration and production activity. This would likely result in a corresponding decline in the demand for our services and could have a material adverse effect on our revenue, cash flow and profitability.

Lower oil and natural gas prices could also cause our customers to terminate, renegotiate, or fail to honour their drilling contracts with us, which could affect the anticipated revenues that support our capital expenditure program and deliveries of new-build rigs. In addition, lower oil and natural gas prices, lower demand for oilfield services, or lower rig utilization could affect the fair market value of our rig fleet, which in turn could trigger a write down for accounting purposes. There is no assurance that demands for our services or conditions in the oil and natural gas and oilfield services sector will not decline in the future, and a significant decline in demand could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

We have accounts receivable with customers in the oil and natural gas industry and their revenues may be affected by fluctuations in commodity prices. Our ability to collect receivables may be adversely affected by any prolonged weakness in oil and natural gas prices.

Intense price competition and the cyclical nature of the contract drilling industry could have an adverse effect on revenue and profitability

The contract drilling business is highly competitive with numerous industry participants. We compete for drilling contracts that are usually awarded based on competitive bids. We believe pricing and rig availability are the primary factors potential customers consider when selecting a drilling contractor. We believe other factors are also important, such as the drilling capabilities and condition of drilling rigs, the quality of service and experience of rig crews, the safety record of the contractor and the particular drilling rig, the offering of ancillary services, the ability to provide drilling equipment that is adaptable to and having personnel familiar with new technologies and drilling techniques, and rig mobility and efficiency.

Historically, contract drilling has been cyclical with periods of low demand, excess rig supply and low dayrates, followed by periods of high demand, short rig supply and increasing dayrates. Periods of excess drilling rig supply intensify the competition and often result in rigs being idle. There are numerous contract drilling companies in each of the markets where we operate, and an oversupply of drilling rigs can cause greater price competition. Contract drilling companies compete primarily on a regional basis, and the intensity of competition can vary significantly from region to region at any particular time. If demand for drilling services is better in a region where we operate, our competitors might respond by moving in suitable drilling rigs from other regions, reactivating previously stacked rigs or purchasing new drilling rigs. An influx of drilling rigs into a market from any source could rapidly intensify competition and make any improvement in the demand for our drilling rigs short-lived, which could in turn have a material adverse effect on our revenue, cash flow and earnings.

Our business results and the strength of our financial position are affected by our ability to strategically manage our capital expenditure program in a manner consistent with industry cycles and fluctuations in the demand for contract drilling services. If we do not effectively manage our capital expenditures or respond to market signals relating to the supply or demand for contract drilling and oilfield services, it could have a material adverse effect on our revenue, operations and financial condition.

22         Precision Drilling Corporation 2015 Annual Information Form

New capital expenditures in the contract drilling industry expose us to the risk of oversupply of equipment

Periods of high demand often lead to higher capital expenditures on drilling rigs and other oilfield services equipment. The number of drilling rigs competing for work in markets where we operate has increased as the industry adds new and upgraded rigs. The industry supply of drilling rigs may exceed actual demand because of the relatively long life span of oilfield services equipment as well as the typically long time from when a decision is made to upgrade or build new equipment to when the equipment is built and placed into service. Excess supply resulting from industry-wide capital expenditures could lead to lower demand for term drilling contracts and for our equipment and services. The additional supply of drilling rigs has served to intensify price competition in the past and could continue to do so. This could lead to lower rates in the oilfield services industry generally and lower utilization of existing rigs. If any of these factors materialize, it would have an adverse effect on our revenue, cash flow, earnings and asset valuation.

We require sufficient cash flows to service and repay our debt

We will need sufficient cash flows in the future to service and repay our debt. Our ability to generate cash in the future is affected to some extent by general economic, financial, competitive and other factors that may be beyond our control. If we need to borrow funds in the future to service our debt, our ability will depend on covenants in the Senior Credit Facility, the 2020 Note Indenture, the 2019 Note Indenture, the 2021 Note Indenture, the 2024 Note Indenture and other debt agreements we may have in the future, and on our credit ratings. We may not be able to access sufficient amounts under the Senior Credit Facility or from the capital markets in the future to pay our obligations as they mature or to fund other liquidity requirements. If we are not able to borrow a sufficient amount, or generate enough cash flow from operations to service and repay our debt, we will need to refinance our debt or we will be in default, and we could be forced to reduce or delay investments and capital expenditures or dispose of material assets. We may not be able to refinance or arrange alternative measures on favourable terms or at all. If we are unable to service, repay, or refinance our debt, it could have a negative impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

Repaying the debt depends on our guarantor subsidiaries generating cash flow and making it available to us by dividend, debt repayment or otherwise. Our guarantor subsidiaries may not be able to, or may not be permitted to, make distributions to allow us to make payments on our debt. Each guarantor subsidiary is a distinct legal entity and, under certain circumstances, legal and contractual restrictions may limit our ability to obtain cash from the subsidiaries. While the agreements governing certain existing debt limit the ability of our subsidiaries to incur consensual restrictions on their ability to pay dividends or make other intercompany payments to us, these limitations are subject to qualifications and exceptions.

A substantial portion of our operations is carried out through subsidiaries, and some of them are not guarantors of our debt. The assets and operations of the non-guarantor subsidiaries are not material, and these subsidiaries do not have any obligation to pay amounts due on the debt or to make funds available for that purpose.

If we do not receive dividends from our guarantor subsidiaries, we may be unable to make the required principal and interest payments, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations.

Customers’ inability to obtain credit/financing could lead to lower demand for our services

Many of our customers require reasonable access to credit facilities and debt capital markets to finance their oil and gas drilling activity. If the availability of credit to our customers is reduced, they may reduce their drilling and production expenditures, thereby decreasing demand for our products and services. Any such reduction in spending by our customers could adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.

Precision Drilling Corporation 2015 Annual Information Form         23

Our debt facilities contain restrictive covenants

The Senior Credit Facility, the 2020 Note Indenture, the 2019 Note Indenture, the 2021 Note Indenture, and the 2024 Note Indenture contain a number of covenants which, among other things, restrict us and some of our subsidiaries from conducting certain activities. In addition, we must satisfy and maintain certain financial ratio tests under the Senior Credit Facility (see Our Capital Structure – Material Debt, on page 17). Events beyond our control could affect our ability to meet these tests. If we breach any of the covenants, it could result in a default under the Senior Credit Facility or any of the note indentures. If there is a default, the applicable lenders or note holders could decide to declare all amounts outstanding under the Senior Credit Facility or any of the note indentures to be due and payable immediately, and terminate any commitments to extend further credit.

Risks and uncertainties associated with our international operations can negatively affect our business

We conduct some of our business in Mexico and the Middle East. Our growth plans contemplate establishing operations in other international regions, including countries where the political and economic systems may be less stable than in Canada or the U.S.

Our international operations are subject to risks normally associated with conducting business in foreign countries, including among others:

¡ an uncertain political and economic environment

¡ the loss of revenue, property and equipment as a result of expropriation, confiscation, nationalization, contract deprivation and force majeure

¡ war, terrorist acts or threats, civil insurrection, and geopolitical and other political risks

¡ fluctuations in foreign currency and exchange controls

¡ restrictions on the repatriation of income or capital

¡ increases in duties, taxes and governmental royalties

¡ renegotiation of contracts with governmental entities

¡ changes in laws and policies governing operations of foreign-based companies

¡ compliance with anti-corruption and anti-bribery legislation in Canada, the U.S. and other countries

¡ trade restrictions or embargoes imposed by the U.S. or other countries.

If there is a dispute relating to our international operations, we may be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of foreign courts or may not be able to subject foreign persons to the jurisdiction of a court in Canada or the U.S.

Government-owned petroleum companies located in some of the countries where we operate now or in the future may have policies, or may be subject to governmental policies, that give preference to the purchase of goods and services from companies that are majority-owned by local nationals. As such, we may rely on joint ventures, license arrangements and other business combinations with local nationals in these countries, which may expose us to certain counterparty risks, including the failure of local nationals to meet contractual obligations or comply with local or international laws that apply to us.

In the international markets where we operate, we are subject to various laws and regulations that govern the operation and taxation of our businesses and the import and export of our equipment from country to country. There may be uncertainty about how these laws and regulations are imposed, applied or interpreted, and they could be subject to change. Since we derive a portion of our revenues from subsidiaries outside of Canada and the U.S., the subsidiaries paying dividends or making other cash payments or advances may be restricted from transferring funds in or out of the respective countries, or face exchange controls or taxes on any payments or advances. We have organized our foreign operations partly based on certain assumptions about various tax laws (including capital gains and withholding taxes), foreign currency exchange, and capital repatriation laws and other relevant laws of a variety of foreign jurisdictions. We believe these assumptions are reasonable; however, there is no assurance that foreign taxing or other authorities will reach the same conclusion. If these foreign jurisdictions change or modify the laws, we could suffer adverse tax and financial consequences.

24         Precision Drilling Corporation 2015 Annual Information Form

While we have developed policies and procedures designed to achieve compliance with applicable international laws, we could be exposed to potential claims, economic sanctions, or other restrictions for alleged or actual violations of international laws related to our international operations, including anti-corruption and anti-bribery legislation, trade laws and trade sanctions. The Canadian government, the U.S. Department of Justice, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control, and similar agencies and authorities in other jurisdictions have a broad range of civil and criminal penalties they may seek to impose against corporations and individuals for such violations, including injunctive relief, disgorgement, fines, penalties and modifications to business practices and compliance programs, among other things. While we cannot accurately predict the impact of any of these factors, if any of those risks materialize, it could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flow.

Our operations are subject to numerous environmental laws, regulations and guidelines

Our operations are affected by numerous laws, regulations and guidelines relating to the protection of the environment, including those governing the management, transportation and disposal of hazardous substances and other waste materials. These include those relating to spills, releases, and discharges of hazardous substances or other waste materials into the environment, requiring removal or remediation of pollutants or contaminants, and imposing civil and criminal penalties for violations. Some of these apply to our operations and authorize the recovery of natural resource damages by the government, injunctive relief, and the imposition of stop, control, remediation and abandonment orders. In addition, our land drilling operations may be conducted in or near ecologically sensitive areas, such as wetlands that are subject to special protective measures, which may expose us to additional operating costs and liabilities for noncompliance with certain laws. Some environmental laws and regulations may impose strict and, in certain cases joint and several, liability. This means that in some situations we could be exposed to liability as a result of conduct that was lawful at the time it occurred, or conditions caused by prior operators or other third parties, including any liability related to offsite treatment or disposal facilities. The costs arising from compliance with these laws, regulations and guidelines may be material.

We maintain liability insurance, including insurance for certain environmental claims, but coverage is limited and some of our policies exclude coverage for damages resulting from environmental contamination. We cannot assure that insurance will continue to be available to us on commercially reasonable terms, that the possible types of liabilities that we may incur will be covered by insurance, or that the dollar amount of the liabilities will not exceed our policy limits. Even a partially uninsured claim, if successful and of sufficient magnitude, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and prospects.

The subject of energy and the environment has created intense public debate around the world in recent years. Debate is likely to continue for the foreseeable future and could potentially have a significant impact on all aspects of the economy. The trend in environmental regulation has been to impose more restrictions and limitations on activities that may impact the environment. Any regulatory changes that impose additional environmental restrictions or requirements on us, or our customers, could increase our operating costs and potentially lead to lower demand for our services and have an adverse effect on us. For example, there is growing concern about the apparent connection between the burning of fossil fuels and climate change. Laws, regulations, or treaties concerning climate change or greenhouse gas emissions can have an adverse impact on the demand for oil and natural gas, which could have a material adverse effect on us.

Governments in Canada and the U.S. are also considering more stringent regulation or restriction of hydraulic fracturing, a technology used by most of our customers that involves the injection of water, sand and chemicals under pressure into rock formations to stimulate oil and natural gas production.

Precision Drilling Corporation 2015 Annual Information Form         25

Increasing regulatory restrictions could have a negative impact on the exploration of unconventional energy resources, which are only commercially viable with the use of hydraulic fracturing. Laws relating to hydraulic fracturing are in various stages of development at levels of governments in markets where we operate and the outcome of these developments and their effect on the regulatory landscape and the contract drilling industry is uncertain; however, hydraulic fracturing laws or regulations that cause a decrease in the completion of new oil and natural gas wells and an associated decrease in demand for our services could have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial results.

Poor safety performance could lead to lower demand for our services

Standards for accident prevention in the oil and natural gas industry are governed by service company safety policies and procedures, accepted industry safety practices, customer-specific safety requirements, and health and safety legislation. Safety is a key factor that customers consider when selecting an oilfield service company. A decline in our safety performance could result in lower demand for services, and this could have a material adverse effect on our revenue, cash flow and earnings.

We are subject to various health and safety laws, rules, legislation and guidelines which can impose material liability, increase our costs or lead to lower demand for our services.

Relying on third-party suppliers has risks

We source certain key rig components, raw materials, equipment and component parts from a variety of suppliers in Canada, the U.S. and overseas. We also outsource some or all construction services for drilling and service rigs, including new-build rigs, as part of our capital expenditure programs. We maintain relationships with several key suppliers and contractors and an inventory of key components, materials, equipment and parts. We also place advance orders for components that have long lead times. We may, however, experience cost increases, delays in delivery due to strong activity or financial hardship of suppliers or contractors, or other unforeseen circumstances relating to third parties. If our current or alternate suppliers are unable to deliver the necessary components, materials, equipment, parts and services we require for our businesses, including the construction of new-build drilling rigs, it can delay service to our customers and have a material adverse effect on our revenue, cash flow and earnings.

Acquisitions entail numerous risks and may disrupt our business or distract management

We consider and evaluate acquisitions of, or significant investments in, complementary businesses and assets as part of our business strategy. Any acquisition could have a material adverse effect on our operating results, financial condition, or the price of our securities. Acquisitions involve numerous risks, including unanticipated costs and liabilities, difficulty in integrating the operations and assets of the acquired business, the ability to properly access and maintain an effective internal control environment over an acquired company to comply with public reporting requirements, potential loss of key employees and customers of the acquired companies, and an increase in our expenses and working capital requirements.

We may incur substantial debt to finance future acquisitions and also may issue equity securities or convertible securities for acquisitions. Debt service requirements could be a burden on our results of operations and financial condition. We would also be required to meet certain conditions to borrow money to fund future acquisitions. Acquisitions could also divert the attention of management and other employees from our day-to-day operations and the development of new business opportunities. Even if we are successful in integrating future acquisitions into our operations, we may not derive the benefits, such as operational or administrative synergies, we expect from acquisitions, which may result in us committing capital resources and not receiving the expected returns. In addition, we may not be able to continue to identify attractive acquisition opportunities or successfully acquire identified targets.

26         Precision Drilling Corporation 2015 Annual Information Form

New technology could reduce demand for certain rigs or put us at a competitive disadvantage

Complex drilling programs for the exploration and development of conventional and unconventional oil and natural gas reserves demand high performance drilling rigs. The ability of drilling rig service providers to meet this demand depends on continuous improvement of existing rig technology, such as drive systems, control systems, automation, mud systems and top drives, to improve drilling efficiency. Our ability to deliver equipment and services that meet customer demand is essential to our continued success. We cannot guarantee that our rig technology will continue to meet the needs of our customers, especially as rigs age and technology advances, or that our competitors will not develop technological improvements that are more advantageous, timely, or cost effective.

Our operations face risks of interruption and casualty losses

Our operations face many hazards inherent in the drilling and well servicing industries, including blowouts, cratering, explosions, fires, loss of well control, loss of hole, reservoir damage, loss of directional control, damaged or lost equipment, and damage or loss from inclement weather or natural disasters. Any of these hazards could result in personal injury or death, damage to or destruction of equipment and facilities, suspension of operations, environmental damage, damage to the property of others, and damage to producing or potentially productive oil and natural gas formations that we drill through.

Generally, drilling and service rig contracts separate the responsibilities of a drilling or service rig company and the customer, and we try to obtain indemnification from our customers by contract for some of these risks even though we also have insurance coverage to protect us. We cannot assure, however, that any insurance or indemnification agreements will adequately protect us against liability from all of the consequences described above. If there is an event that is not fully insured or indemnified against, or a customer or insurer does not meet its indemnification or insurance obligations, it could result in substantial losses. In addition, we may not be able to get insurance to cover any or all of these risks, or the coverage may not be adequate. Insurance premiums or other costs may rise significantly in the future, making the insurance prohibitively expensive or uneconomic. Significant events, including terrorist attacks in the U.S., severe hurricane damage, and well blowout damage in the U.S. Gulf Coast region, have resulted in significantly higher insurance costs, deductibles and coverage restrictions. When we renew our insurance, we may decide to self-insure at higher levels and assume increased risk in order to reduce costs associated with higher insurance premiums.

Business in our industry is seasonal and highly variable

Seasonal weather patterns in Canada and the northern U.S. affect activity in the oilfield services industry. During the spring months, wet weather and the spring thaw make the ground unstable so municipalities and counties and provincial and state transportation departments enforce road bans that restrict the movement of rigs and other heavy equipment. This reduces activity and highlights the importance of the location of our equipment prior to the imposition of the road bans. The timing and length of road bans depend on weather conditions leading to the spring thaw and during the thawing period.

Additionally, certain oil and natural gas producing areas are located in parts of western Canada that are only accessible during the winter months because the ground surrounding or containing the drilling sites in these areas consists of terrain known as muskeg. Rigs and other necessary equipment cannot cross this terrain to reach the drilling site until the muskeg freezes. Moreover, once the rigs and other equipment have been moved to a drilling site, they may become stranded or be unable to move to another site if the muskeg thaws unexpectedly. Our business activity depends, at least in part, upon the severity and duration of the winter season.

Our operations are subject to foreign exchange risk

Our U.S. and international operations have revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the Canadian dollar (mostly in U.S. dollars and currencies that are pegged to the U.S. dollar). This means that changes in currency exchange rates can affect our income statement, balance sheet and statement of cash flow.

Precision Drilling Corporation 2015 Annual Information Form         27

Translation into Canadian Dollars

When preparing our consolidated financial statements, we translate the financial statements for foreign operations that do not have a Canadian dollar functional currency into Canadian dollars. We translate assets and liabilities at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. We translate revenues and expenses using average exchange rates for the month of the transaction. We initially recognize gains or losses from these translation adjustments in other comprehensive income, and reclassify them from equity to net earnings on disposal or partial disposal of the foreign operation. Changes in currency exchange rates could materially increase or decrease our foreign currency-denominated net assets, which would increase or decrease shareholders’ equity. Changes in currency exchange rates will affect the amount of revenues and expenses we record for our U.S. and international operations, which will increase or decrease our net earnings. If the Canadian dollar strengthens against the U.S. dollar, the net earnings we record in Canadian dollars from our U.S. and international operations will be lower.

Transaction Exposure

We have long-term debt denominated in U.S. dollars. We have designated the 2020 Notes, the 2021 Notes, and the 2024 Notes as a hedge against the net asset position of our U.S. and foreign operations. This debt is converted at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet dates with the resulting gains or losses included in the statement of comprehensive income. If the Canadian dollar strengthens against the U.S. dollar, we will incur a foreign exchange gain from the translation of this debt. Similarly, if the Canadian dollar weakens against the U.S. dollar, we will incur a foreign exchange loss from the translation of this debt. The vast majority of our international operations are transacted in U.S. dollars or U.S. dollar-pegged currencies. Transactions for our Canadian operations are primarily transacted in Canadian dollars. However, we occasionally purchase goods and supplies in U.S. dollars for our Canadian operations, and we maintain U.S. dollar cash in our Canadian operations.

We may be unable to access additional financing

We may need to obtain additional debt or equity financing in the future to support ongoing operations, undertake capital expenditures, repay existing or future debt (including the Senior Credit Facility, the 2020 Notes, the 2019 Notes, the 2021 Notes, and the 2024 Notes), or pursue acquisitions or other business combination transactions. Volatility or uncertainty in the credit markets may increase costs associated with issuing debt or equity, and there is no assurance that we will be able to access additional financing when we need it, or on terms we find acceptable or favourable. If we are unable to obtain financing to support ongoing operations or to fund capital expenditures, acquisitions, debt repayments, or other business combination transactions, it could limit growth and may have a material adverse effect on our revenue, cash flow and profitability.

Risks associated with turnkey drilling operations could adversely affect our business

We earn some of our revenue from turnkey drilling contracts. We expect that turnkey drilling will continue to be part of our service offering; however, turnkey contracts pose substantially more risk than wells drilled on a daywork basis. Under a typical turnkey drilling contract, we agree to drill a well for a customer to a specified depth and under specified conditions for a fixed price. We typically provide technical expertise and engineering services, as well as most of the equipment required for the drilling of turnkey wells, and use subcontractors for related services. We typically do not receive progress payments and are entitled to payment by the customer only after we have met the full terms of the drilling contract. We sometimes encounter difficulties on wells and incur unanticipated costs, and not all of the costs are covered by insurance. As a result, under turnkey contracts we assume most of the risks associated with drilling operations that are generally assumed by customers under a daywork contract. Operating cost overruns or operational difficulties on turnkey jobs could have a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations.

28         Precision Drilling Corporation 2015 Annual Information Form

There are risks associated with increased capital expenditures

The timing and amount of capital expenditures we incur will directly affect the amount of cash available to us. The cost of equipment generally escalates as a result of high input costs during periods of high demand for our drilling rigs and oilfield services equipment and other factors. There is no assurance that we will be able to recover higher capital costs through rate increases to our customers.

A successful challenge by the tax authorities of expense deductions could negatively affect the value of our common shares

Taxation authorities may not agree with the classification of expenses we or our subsidiaries have claimed or may challenge the amount of interest expense deducted. If the taxation authorities successfully challenge our classifications or deductions, it could have an adverse effect on our return to shareholders.

Losing key management could reduce our competitiveness and prospects for future success

Our future success and growth depends partly on the expertise and experience of our key management. There is no assurance that we will be able to retain key management. Losing these individuals could have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial condition.

Our assessment of goodwill or capital assets for impairment may result in a non-cash charge against our consolidated net income

We are required to assess our goodwill balance for impairment at least annually, and our capital assets balance for impairment when certain internal and external factors indicate the need for further analysis. We calculate impairment based on management’s estimates and assumptions. We may consider several factors, including any declines in our share price and market capitalization, lower future cash flow and earnings estimates, significantly reduced or depressed markets in the our industry, and general economic conditions, among other things. Any impairment write down to goodwill or capital assets would result in a non-cash charge against net earnings, and it could be material.

Our credit ratings may change

Credit ratings affect our financing costs, liquidity and operations over the long term and are intended as an independent measure of the credit quality of long-term debt. Credit ratings affect our ability to obtain short and long-term financing and the cost of this financing, and our ability to engage in certain business activities cost-effectively.

If a rating agency reduces its current rating on our debt, or downgrades us, or we experience a negative change in our ratings outlook, it could have an adverse effect on our financing costs and access to liquidity and capital.

The price of our common shares can fluctuate

The price of our common shares can fluctuate. Several factors can cause volatility, including increases or decreases in revenue or earnings, changes in revenue or earnings estimates by the investment community, failure to meet analysts’ expectations, changes in credit ratings, and speculation in media or investment community about our financial condition or results of operations. General market conditions and Canadian, U.S., or international economic factors and political events unrelated to our performance may also affect the price of our common shares. Investors should therefore not rely on past performance of our common shares to predict the future performance of our common shares or financial results.

Selling additional common shares could affect share value

We may issue additional common shares in the future to fund our needs or those of other entities owned directly or indirectly by us, as authorized by the Board. We do not need shareholder approval to issue additional common shares, and shareholders do not have any pre-emptive rights related to share issues (see Our Capital Structure, on page 15).

Precision Drilling Corporation 2015 Annual Information Form         29

Any difficulty in retaining, replacing, or adding personnel could adversely affect our business

Our ability to provide reliable services depends on the availability of well-trained, experienced crews to operate our field equipment. We must also balance our need to maintain a skilled workforce with cost structures that fluctuate with activity levels. We retain the most experienced employees during periods of low utilization by having them fill lower level positions on field crews. Many of our businesses experience manpower shortages in peak operating periods, and we may experience more severe shortages if the industry adds more rigs, oilfield service companies expand, and new companies enter the business.

We may not be able to find enough skilled labour to meet our needs, and this could limit growth. We may also have difficulty finding enough skilled and unskilled labour in the future if demand for our services increases. Shortages of qualified personnel have occurred in the past during periods of high demand. The demand for qualified rig personnel generally increases with stronger demand for land drilling services and as new and refurbished rigs are brought into service. Increased demand typically leads to higher wages that may or may not be reflected in any increases in service rates.

Other factors can also affect our ability to find enough workers to meet our needs. Our business requires skilled workers who can perform physically demanding work. Volatility in oil and natural gas activity and the demanding nature of the work, however, may prompt workers to pursue other kinds of jobs that offer a more desirable work environment and wages competitive to ours. Our success depends on our ability to continue to employ and retain skilled technical personnel and qualified rig personnel; if we are unable to, it could have a material adverse effect on our operations.

As a foreign private issuer in the U.S., we may file less information with the SEC than a company incorporated in the U.S.

As a foreign private issuer, we are exempt from certain rules under the United States Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act) that impose disclosure requirements, as well as procedural requirements, for proxy solicitations under Section 14 of the Exchange Act. Our directors, officers and principal shareholders are also exempt from the reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act. We are not required to file periodic reports and financial statements with the SEC as frequently or as promptly as U.S. companies whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act, nor are we generally required to comply with Regulation FD, which restricts the selective disclosure of material non-public information. As a result, there may be less publicly available information about us than U.S. public companies and this information may not be provided as promptly. In addition, we are permitted, under a multi-jurisdictional disclosure system adopted by the U.S. and Canada, to prepare our disclosure documents in accordance with Canadian disclosure requirements, including preparing our financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), which differs in some respects from U.S. GAAP.

We have retained liabilities from prior reorganizations

We have retained all liabilities of our predecessor companies, including liabilities relating to corporate and income tax matters.

We may become a passive foreign investment company, which could result in adverse U.S. tax consequences to U.S. investors

Management does not believe that we are or will be treated as a passive foreign investment company (PFIC) for U.S. tax purposes. However, because PFIC status is determined annually and will depend on the composition of our income and assets from time to time, it is possible that we could be considered a PFIC in the future. This could result in adverse U.S. tax consequences to a U.S. investor. In particular, a U.S. investor would be subject to U.S. federal income tax at ordinary income rates, plus a possible interest charge, for any gain derived from a disposition of common shares, as well as certain distributions by us. In addition, a step-up in the tax basis of our common shares would not be available if an individual holder dies.

30         Precision Drilling Corporation 2015 Annual Information Form

An investor who acquires 10% or more of our common shares may be subject to taxation under the controlled foreign corporation (CFC) rules.

Under certain circumstances, a U.S. person who directly or indirectly owns 10% or more of the voting power of a foreign corporation that is a CFC (generally, a foreign corporation where 10% of the U.S. shareholders own more than 50% of the voting power or value of the stock of the foreign corporation) for 30 straight days or more during a taxable year and who holds any shares of the foreign corporation on the last day of the corporation’s tax year must include in gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes its pro rata share of certain income of the CFC even if the share is not distributed to the person. We are not currently a CFC, but this could change in the future.

MATERIAL INTERESTS, EXPERTS AND MATERIAL CONTRACTS

Material Interests

None of our directors, executive officers, or any shareholder who beneficially owns, or controls or directs, directly or indirectly, more than 10% of our outstanding common shares, or any of their known associates or affiliates, have had a direct or indirect material interest in any transaction affecting us in the three most recently completed financial years or during 2016 to the date of this AIF, or in any proposed transaction that has had or is reasonably expected to have a material effect on Precision.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS AND REGULATORY ACTIONS

Except as noted below, we are not a party to, and our properties are not the subject of, any material legal proceedings. We are also not aware of any potential material legal proceedings. We have not entered into any settlement agreements or been subject to any penalties or sanctions imposed by a court relating to securities legislation or by a securities regulatory authority or by a court or regulatory body that would likely be considered important to a reasonable investor in making an investment decision.

In August 2014, the Ontario Court of Appeal ruled in favour of Precision’s wholly owned subsidiary, Inter-Leasing, Inc., reversing a prior decision by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice regarding the reassessment of Ontario income tax for Inter-Leasing, Inc.’s 2001 through 2004 taxation years. The Ontario Minister of Revenue subsequently made an application to the Supreme Court of Canada seeking leave to appeal the Ontario Court of Appeal decision. In March 2015, the Supreme Court of Canada denied the Ontario Minister of Revenue’s application for leave to appeal. The decision by the Supreme Court of Canada brought the appeal process to an end. In April 2015, we received payment of $69 million from the Ontario tax authorities, representing $55 million for the refund of assessed taxes and $14 million in interest.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

Under the committee charter, the Audit Committee recommends, for approval by the Board, the external auditors’ terms of engagement and their remuneration. It must also review and pre-approve all permitted non-audit services that will be provided by the auditors, or any of its affiliated entities, to us or any of our affiliates, subject to minimum approval level exceptions under applicable law.

In 2003, the committee implemented specific procedures for pre-approving services to be performed by the external auditors and also specified certain services that the auditors are prohibited from performing. Management, together with the external auditors, must prepare a list of the proposed services for the coming year and submit it to the committee for its review and approval. If the list includes services that have not been pre-approved by the committee, the chair of the Audit Committee or other designated member has the authority to pre-approve the services, as long as they are presented to the full committee for ratification at the next scheduled meeting. The Audit Committee receives an update on the status of any pre-approved services at each regularly scheduled meeting.

Since these procedures were implemented, 100% of each of the services provided by the external auditors relating to the fees reported as audit, audit-related, tax and all other fees have been pre-approved by the Audit Committee or a delegated member.

See Appendix, on page 38, for the full text of our Audit Committee Charter.

OTHER INFORMATION

Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial and accounting officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2015.

Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2015 are effective in ensuring that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is:

¡ recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and

¡ accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, so they make timely decisions about the required disclosure.

While our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer believe that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective and provide a reasonable level of assurance, they do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and fraud. A control system can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met regardless of how well it was designed or functioning.

36         Precision Drilling Corporation 2015 Annual Information Form

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, which is designed to provide reasonable assurance about the reliability of financial reporting and preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS.

Management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, supervised and participated in an evaluation of the design and effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of the end of 2015. The evaluation was based on Internal Control – Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO 2013). Based on this evaluation, management concluded that we maintained effective control over our financial reporting as of December 31, 2015.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting in 2015 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

Management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operation (MD&A) relating to our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, forms part of our 2015 annual report and is incorporated by reference in this AIF.

In addition to the foregoing items, the Committee shall have such other powers and duties as may from time to time by resolution be assigned to it by the Board of Directors.

Limitation of Committee’s Role

While the Committee has the responsibilities and powers set forth in its Charter, it is not the duty of the Committee to prepare financial statements, plan or conduct audits or to determine that the Corporation’s financial statements and disclosures are complete and accurate and are in accordance with IFRS and applicable rules and regulations. These are the responsibilities of Management and the external auditor.

The Committee, the Chair of the Committee and any Committee members identified as having accounting or related financial expertise are members of the Board of Directors, appointed to the Committee to provide broad oversight of the financial, risk and control-related activities of the Corporation, and are specifically not accountable or responsible for the day-to-day operation or performance of such activities.

Although the designation of a Committee member as having accounting or related financial expertise for disclosure purposes is based on that individual’s education and experience, which that individual will bring to bear in carrying out his or her duties on the Committee, such designation does not impose on such person any duties, obligations or liabilities that are greater than the duties, obligations and liabilities imposed on such person as a member of the Committee and Board of Directors in the absence of such designation. Rather, the role of a Committee member who is identified as having accounting or related financial expertise, like the role of all Committee members, is to oversee the process, not to certify or guarantee the internal or external audit of the Corporation’s financial information or public disclosure.

Committee Structure and Authority

(a) Composition

The Committee shall consist of not less than three directors as determined by the Board of Directors, at least 25 percent of whom must be resident Canadians and all of whom shall qualify as independent directors pursuant to (i) National Instrument 52-110 Audit Committees (as implemented by the Canadian Securities Administrators and as amended from time to time) (“NI 52-110”); (ii) Section 303A.02 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual; (iii) Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act; and (iv) any additional requirements or guidelines for audit committee service under applicable securities laws and the rules of any stock exchange on which the shares of the Corporation are listed for trading.

All members of the Committee shall be financially literate, as defined in NI 52-110, and at least one member shall have “accounting or related financial management expertise”. In particular, at least one member shall have: (i) education and experience as a principal financial officer, principal accounting officer, controller, public accountant or auditor or experience in one or more positions that involve the performance of similar functions; (ii) experience actively supervising a principal financial officer, principal accounting officer, controller, public accountant, auditor or person performing similar functions; (iii) experience overseeing or assessing the performance of companies or public accountants with respect to the preparation, auditing or evaluation of financial statements; or (iv) other relevant experience:

¡ an understanding of generally accepted accounting principles and financial statements;

¡ the ability to assess the general application of such principles in connection with the accounting for estimates, accruals and provisions;

¡ expertise preparing, auditing, analyzing or evaluating financial statements that present a breadth and level of complexity of accounting issues that are generally comparable to the breadth and complexity of issues that can reasonably be expected to be raised by the Corporation’s financial statements, or experience actively supervising one or more persons engaged in such activities;

¡ an understanding of internal controls and procedures for financial reporting; and

¡ an understanding of audit committee functions.

Committee members may not, other than in their respective capacities as members of the Committee, the Board of Directors or any other committee of the Board of Directors, accept directly or indirectly any consulting, advisory or other compensatory fee from the Corporation or any subsidiary of the Corporation, or be an “affiliated person” (as such term is defined in the Exchange Act and the rules adopted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder) of the Corporation or any subsidiary of the Corporation. For greater certainty, directors’ fees and fixed amounts of compensation under a retirement plan (including deferred compensation) for prior service with the Corporation that are not contingent on continued service should be the only compensation an audit committee member may receive from the Corporation.

No Committee member shall serve on the audit committees of more than three other issuers without prior determination by the Board of Directors that such simultaneous service would not impair the ability of such member to serve effectively on the Committee.
