--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

2.   BACKGROUND. You and I have previously entered into a Prior Obligation. As
of the date of this Modification, the outstanding, unpaid balance of the Prior
Obligation is $3,114,171.72. Conditions have changed since the execution of the
Prior Obligation instruments. In response, and for value received, you and I
agree to modify the terms of the Prior Obligation, as provided for in this
Modification.   3.   TERMS. The Prior Obligation is modified as follows:

A. Promise to Pay. My promise to pay is modified to read:

  (1)   PROMISE TO PAY. For value received, I promise to pay you or your order,
at your address, or at such other location as you may designate, amounts
advanced from time to time under the terms of this Loan up to the maximum
outstanding principal balance of $50,000,000.00 (Principal), plus interest from
the date of disbursement, on the unpaid outstanding Principal balance until this
Loan is paid in full and Lender has no further obligations to make advances to
you under this Loan.

          My Credit Limit has been increased by $41,000,000.00 with an initial
Borrowing Base established at $25,000,000.
B. Interest. Our agreement for the payment of interest is modified to read:

  (1)   INTEREST. Interest will accrue on the unpaid Principal balance of this
Loan at the rate of 7.125 percent (Interest Rate) until August 2, 2006, after
which time it may change as described in the Variable Rate subsection.

  (a)   Maximum Interest Amount. Any amount assessed or collected as interest
under the terms of this Loan will be limited to the maximum lawful amount of
interest allowed by state or federal law, whichever is greater. Amounts
collected in excess of the maximum lawful amount will be applied first to the
unpaid principal balance. Any remainder will be refunded to me.     (b)  
Statutory Authority. The amount assessed or collected on this Loan is authorized
by the Wyoming usury laws under Wyo. Stat. § 40-14-358.     (c)   Accrual.
Interest accrues using an Actual/360 days counting method.     (d)   Variable
Rate. The Interest Rate may change during the term of this transaction.

  (1)   Index. Beginning with the first Change Date, the Interest Rate will be
based on the following index: the base rate on corporate loans posted by at
least 75% of the nation’s 30 largest banks known as the Wall Street Journal
Prime Rate.

      The Current Index is the most recent index figure available on each Change
Date. You do not guaranty by selecting this Index, or the margin, that the
Interest Rate on the loan will be the same rate you charge on any other loans or
class of loans you make to me or other borrowers. If this Index is no longer
available, you will substitute a similar index. You will give me notice of your
choice.

  (2)   Change Date. Each date on which the Interest Rate may change is called a
Change Date. The Interest Rate may change August 2, 2006 and daily thereafter.  
  (3)   Calculation of Change. On each Change Date you will calculate the
Interest Rate, which will be the Current Index minus 1.125 percent. The result
of this calculation will be rounded to the nearest .001 percent. Subject to any
limitations, this will be the Interest Rate until the next Change Date. The new
Interest Rate will become effective on each Change Date. The Interest Rate and
other charges on the Loan will never exceed the highest rate or charge allowed
by law for the Loan.

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

  (4)   Effect of Variable Rate. A change in the Interest Rate will have the
following effect on the payments: The amount of scheduled payments will change.

C. Maturity and Payments. The maturity and payment provisions are modified to
read:

  (1)   PAYMENT. I agree to pay all accrued interest on the balance outstanding
from time to time in regular payments beginning August 31, 2006, then on the
same day of each month thereafter. A final payment of the entire unpaid
outstanding balance of Principal and Interest will be due July 31, 2010.

      Payments will be rounded to the nearest $.01. With the final payment I
also agree to pay any additional fees or charges owing and the amount of any
advances you have made to others on my behalf. Payments scheduled to be paid on
the 29th, 30th or 31st day of a month that contains no such day will, instead,
be made on the last day of such month.

  (2)   Maturity. The maturity provision is modified to read:

  (a)   Maturity Date. Consistent with our existing periodic payment
arrangement, except any scheduled, final payment, I agree that the entire
outstanding balance of Principal and accrued interest is due on, or before,
July 31, 2010.

D. Fees and Charges. As additional consideration for your consent to enter into
this Modification Agreement, I agree to pay, or have paid these additional fees
and charges:

  (1)   Nonrefundable Fees and Charges. The following fees are earned when
collected and will not be refunded if I prepay this Loan before the scheduled
maturity date.       • Loan. A(n) Loan fee of $58,000.00 payable from separate
funds on or before today’s date. (.25% of commitment less a credit of $4,500.00
paid on the current facility.)

4.   CONTINUATION OF TERMS. Except as specifically amended by this Modification,
all of the terms of the Prior Obligation shall remain in full force and effect.
  5.   WAIVER. I waive all claims, defenses, setoffs, or counterclaims relating
to the Prior Obligation, or any document securing the Prior Obligation, that I
may have. Any party to the Prior Obligation that does not sign this
Modification, shall remain liable under the terms of the Prior Obligation unless
released in writing by you.   6.   REASONS FOR MODIFICATION. THIS DEBT
MODIFICATION IS TO: (1) CHANGE THE INTEREST RATE TO WALL STREET JOURNAL PRIME
MINUS 1.125%, ADJUSTING DAILY. (2) EXTEND THE MATURITY DATE TO JULY 31, 2010.
(3) INCREASE THE CREDIT LIMIT OF THIS REVOLVING LINE OF CREDIT TO
$50,000,000.00, WITH AN INITIAL BORROWING BASE OF $25,000,000.00. (4) TO ADD
COVENANTS LISTED ON THE COMMERCIAL LOAN AGREEMENT AMENDMENT. EXHIBIT “B” NEW
COVENANTS.   7.   ADDITIONAL TERMS. A MORTGAGE ADDENDUM TO INCLUDE ADDITIONAL
PROPERTIES TAKEN AS SECURITY IS A PART OF THIS AGREEMENT AND ATTACHED. ANY THIRD
PARTY LEGAL FEES IN EXCESS OF $5,000,00 WILL BE PAID BY DOUBLE EAGLE PETROLEUM
CO. THIS DEBT MODIFICATION AGREEMENT IS A CONTINUATION AND SUBSTITUTION OF THAT
PROMISSORY NOTE DATED JANUARY 3, 2000 AND ANY AMENDMENTS AND MODIFICATIONS
THERETO AND REPRESENTS A CONTINUATION OF THE INDEBTEDNESS EVIDENCED THEREBY.

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

OF THE DATE THIS AGREEMENT WAS PREPARED. ALL TERMS AND CONDITIONS, EXCEPT AS
SPECIFICALLY MODIFIED HEREIN, OF THE PRIOR OBLIGATIONS ARE HEREBY RATIFIED AND
CONFIRMED. CONSENT BY LENDER TO THIS MODIFICATION DOES NOT WAIVE LENDER’S RIGHT
TO REQUIRE STRICT PERFORMANCE OF THE PRIOR OBLIGATIONS, AS MODIFIED, NOR
OBLIGATE LENDER TO MAKE ANY FUTURE MODIFICATIONS. BORROWER AFFIRMS THAT THE
