EXPLANATORY NOTE
     We filed our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 on February 25, 2010 (the “Original Report”). We are filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A (this “Amendment”) solely to revise Exhibits 99.1, 99.2 and 99.3 to the Original Report as follows:
    In the Original Report, each of these exhibits contained a statement limiting its use to Devon Energy Corporation. The exhibits in this Amendment do not include any such limitation.
 
    These exhibits omitted relevant benchmark prices and weighted average prices in the Original Report. The exhibits in this Amendment include the requisite pricing information.
 
    In the Original Report, Exhibit 99.1 omitted a statement that the third party engineer’s estimates and our estimates are within 10% of each other. The exhibit in this Amendment includes such a statement.
 
    Exhibit 99.1 included a reference to “generally accepted petroleum engineering and evaluation principles” in the Original Report. This exhibit has been modified to refer to “generally accepted petroleum engineering and evaluation methods and procedures” in this Amendment.
     No other changes to the Original Report are included in this Amendment other than to provide currently dated consents of each engineering firm and certifications of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer.
     This Amendment is being filed in response to comments we received from the staff of the Division of Corporation Finance of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in connection with the staff’s review of the Original Report. We have made no attempt in this Amendment to modify or update the disclosures presented in the Original Report other than as noted above. Also, this Amendment does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the Original Report. Accordingly, this Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original Report and our other filings with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Original Report.
