Certifications and Disclosure Regarding Controls and Procedures.

(a)	Certifications . See Exhibits 99.5, 99.6, 99.7 and 99.8 to this Annual Report on Form 40-F.

(b)

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

. As of the end of Obsidian Energy Ltd.’s (“Obsidian Energy”) fiscal year ended December 31, 202

, an evaluation of the effectiveness of Obsidian Energy’s “disclosure controls and procedures” (as such term is defined in Rules

13a-15(e)

and

15d-15(e)

under the Exchange Act) was carried out by the management of Obsidian Energy, with the participation of the President and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and the Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) of Obsidian Energy. Based upon that evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that as of the end of that fiscal year, Obsidian Energy’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by Obsidian Energy in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the management of Obsidian Energy, including the CEO and CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

It should be noted that while the CEO and CFO believe that Obsidian Energy’s disclosure controls and procedures provide a reasonable level of assurance that they are effective, they do not expect that Obsidian Energy’s disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived or operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.

(c)	Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting .

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over Obsidian Energy’s financial reporting. Obsidian Energy’s internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance that all transactions are accurately recorded, that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that Obsidian Energy’s assets are safeguarded.

Management has assessed the effectiveness of Obsidian Energy’s internal control over financial reporting as at December 31, 2022. In making its assessment, management used the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) to evaluate the effectiveness of Obsidian Energy’s internal control over financial reporting. Based on this assessment, management has concluded that Obsidian Energy’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2022.

(d)

Attestation Report of the Registered Public Accounting Firm
