                                Article 2
                              Purchase Price

    A.    Price. The price to be paid by Buyer to Seller for the Property
shall be Nine Million Dollars ($9,000,000.00) (the "Purchase Price")
payable at Closing (as defined below) less the Earnest Money held by
Seller, by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account to
be designated by Seller. Seller shall prepare a Closing Statement,
substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit "F", detailing the
items which are to be added to or subtracted from the Purchase Price as
permitted under this Agreement in order to determine the amount of money
to be included in the wire transfer. Buyer and Seller shall agree to the
figures on the Closing Statement. The Purchase Price is subject to the
following conditions.

        1.  Within two hundred seventy (270) days of the Closing Date,
            unless further delayed due to right-of-way issues, Buyer shall
            hydrotest the Pipeline and determine the Total Recommissioning
            Cost. If the Pipeline is unable to be recommissioned into crude
            service by Buyer due to:

            i)   the cost or projected cost to make repairs to the Pipeline
                 exceeds the Estimate of Repair Costs by $1 million, or

            ii)  the Total Recommissioning Cost exceeds $11 million, or

            iii) community objections that prevent or significantly delay
                 use of the Pipeline,

            and Buyer elects to not proceed, then, at Seller's sole
            discretion:

            (1) Seller may negotiate a mutually acceptable purchase price
                reduction with Buyer and Buyer will proceed with placing
                the Pipeline in service , or

            (2) Seller will refund $8 million to Buyer and Buyer will
                retain ownership of the Pipeline and honor all terms,
                conditions, representations, warranties, and indemnities,
                or

            (3) Seller will refund all monies, Buyer will reconvey
                ownership of the Pipeline and all liabilities to Seller and
                Seller will release Buyer from all obligations.

        2.  If Buyer notifies Seller that it is electing not to proceed
            placing the Pipeline in service because either the cost or
            projected cost to make repairs to the Pipeline exceed the
            Estimate of Repair Costs by $1 million or the Total
            Recommissioning Cost exceeds $11 million, then, at Seller's
            sole cost and expense, Seller shall have the right to conduct
            an audit of Buyer's records supporting the Estimate of Repair
            Costs or the Total Recommissioning Cost, as applicable. Seller
            shall have 15 business days from receipt of Buyer's notice to
            inform Buyer of its intention to conduct an audit.

        3.  If the Pipeline is ever made operational by Buyer, its
            Affiliates or assigns at any time after Seller shall have
            refunded monies to Buyer, then Buyer will pay to Seller an
            amount equal to the monies previously refunded to Buyer by
            Seller.

    B.    Earnest Money. As evidence of Buyer's ability to perform this
Agreement and good faith intent to comply with the terms hereof, Buyer
has deposited with Seller an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the
Purchase Price as earnest money (hereinafter "Earnest Money"). The
Earnest Money shall accrue interest at a per annum rate calculated on a
daily basis using the three month treasury bill rate published by
Bloomberg Financial Services for any applicable day (with the rate for
any day for which a rate is not published being the rate most recently
published). All references to Earnest Money shall include interest on the
Earnest Money as calculated in accordance with the preceding sentence.

    C.    Distribution of the Earnest Money. The Earnest Money shall be
distributed as follows:

        (1)    If the Closing occurs, then the Earnest Money shall be
applied to and credited against the Purchase Price at Closing.

        (2)    In the event the transaction fails to close because any of
the conditions to Closing contained in Article 3A. are not satisfied through
no fault of either Party and this Agreement is terminated, Seller will
refund the Earnest Money to Buyer and Buyer and Seller shall each be
relieved of all liability hereunder.

        (3)    In the event the transaction fails to close because any of
the conditions to Closing in Article 3A. are not satisfied because Buyer has
violated the terms of this Agreement, Seller shall be entitled to retain the
Earnest Money, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, and Buyer and
Seller shall each be relieved of all further liability hereunder.

                                 Article 3
                                  Closing

    A.    Conditions to Closing. Except as expressly waived by the
Parties, the obligations of the Parties to close this transaction are
subject to the satisfaction, at or prior to Closing, of each of the
following conditions, which conditions the Parties intend to be

requirements of federal and state securities Laws.

        (6)    No Casualty Loss shall have occurred between the date of
Buyer's notification to Seller that it has completed its pre-acquisition
review and Closing. The term "Casualty Loss" shall mean any single event
of loss or damage to the Property or any portion thereof which causes a
Material Adverse Environmental Condition or a Material Defect.

        (7)    Each Party shall have received a certificate, dated as of

provisions of this Agreement.

such allocation and (ii) not to take any position inconsistent therewith
upon examination of any Tax return, in any refund claim, in any
litigation, investigation or otherwise, unless required by applicable
Laws or with the consent of the other Party.

                               Article 5
        Responsibility For Contractual Payments and Obligations

    A.    Contractual Payments. Seller shall be responsible for all costs
and expenses, arising in the ordinary course of business with respect to
the ownership, operation, use or maintenance of the Property prior to the
Effective Time. Buyer shall be responsible for all such costs and
expenses arising in the ordinary course of business with respect to the
ownership, operation, use or maintenance of the Property on and after the
Effective Time.

    B.    Assumption of Liabilities and Obligations Relating to the
Property.  On and after the Effective Time, but subject to Seller's
indemnities set forth in Article 11, Buyer shall assume all liabilities
and perform all obligations of Seller relating to the Property (whether
such obligations are to a grantor, a Governmental Authority or any other
Person) and whether such liabilities or obligations are attributable to
periods of time prior to or after the Effective Time, including, but not
limited to, any obligations arising with respect to the abandonment or
removal (as the case may be) of any existing facilities, Pipeline,
appurtenant or associated Equipment or other personal property located on

     C.   Adjustments Regarding Utilities. To the extent utilities have not
been placed in Buyer's name as of the Effective Time, charges and credits
for water, electricity, sewage, gas and all other utilities shall be
adjusted and apportioned between Seller and Buyer through the Effective

meters are required for Buyer's assumption of utility services, the cost
shall be borne by Buyer. After Closing, Buyer shall promptly place in its
own name all utilities associated with the Property.

                               Article 6
                       Taxes and Related Matters

     A.    Cooperation. Buyer and Seller agree to furnish, or cause to be
furnished, to each other, upon request, as promptly as practicable, such
information and assistance relating to the Property as is reasonably
necessary for the filing of all Tax matters, the preparation for any
audit by any taxing authority, and the prosecution or defense of any
Proceeding relating to any Tax matter. Seller and Buyer shall cooperate
with each other in the conduct of any audit or other Proceeding related
to Taxes involving the Property and each shall execute and deliver such
documents as are necessary to carry out the intent of this article.

     B.    Property Taxes. All real estate, ad valorem and personal property
taxes shall be prorated between Buyer and Seller as of the Closing Date
based upon the number of days during the applicable tax period each Party
owned the Property subject to such tax. For purposes of this Agreement,
general property Taxes in respect to the ownership or use of the Property
for the calendar year in which the Effective Time occurs shall be
prorated between Buyer and Seller as of the Effective Time regardless of
when such general property Taxes are actually billed and payable. At
Closing, Seller's portion of such general property Taxes attributable to
the period prior to the Effective Time shall be deducted from the
Purchase Price to be paid to Seller. Buyer shall actually pay to the
taxing authority all general property Taxes for the year of Closing which
are payable after the Closing. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement
to the contrary, no further adjustment shall be made for such general
property Taxes due for the Tax year in which the Closing occurs and which
are payable after the Closing, and Buyer hereby agrees to assume the
payment of all such general property Taxes effective upon Closing.

     C.    Documentary Transfer Taxes. Buyer shall pay and bear all
documentary transfer Taxes, realty transfer Taxes and charges or fees
with respect to the transfer of Real Property or to the recordation of
the documents necessary for the transfer of Real Property that may be
required for the transfer of the Property from Seller to Buyer.

     D.    Other Transfer Taxes. Buyer shall pay and be responsible for any
other applicable transfer Taxes incurred in connection with the purchase
and sale of the Property, including, without limitation, any federal,
state or local sales, use, or excise Taxes, whether levied on Seller or
Buyer. Buyer shall be responsible for, and will file all necessary Tax
returns and other documentation with respect to all such Taxes and remit,
upon the request of Seller, copies of the portions of such returns
relevant to this Agreement and any necessary documentation to Seller.

     E.    Confidential Tax Information. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Agreement, neither Party shall be required at any time
to disclose to the other Party, or to any other Person, absent legal
constraint, any Tax return or other confidential Tax information.

     F.    Deferred Like-Kind Exchange Cooperation. If so requested by a
Party, the other Party shall, at no cost or obligation to such other
Party, cooperate in structuring and completing all or a portion of this
transaction so as to effect a disposition of "relinquished property" in
connection with a multiple party deferred like-kind exchange pursuant to
Section 1031 of the Code. In particular, Buyer hereby consents to the
assignment of an interest in the Property to a "qualified intermediary"
prior to the Closing hereunder and the assignment by Seller to such
"qualified intermediary" of Seller's right to receive the Purchase Price
hereunder. The terms "qualified intermediary", and "relinquished
property" as used herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in
Treasury Regulations Section 1.1031(k)-1. The requesting Party agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless the other Party from any costs, expenses and
claims relating to its cooperation arising out of a like-kind exchange of
the requesting Party, which indemnity shall survive Closing. Nothing in
this Article 6F is intended to relieve any Party from its obligations
hereunder.

     G.    Certification of Non-Foreign Status. On the Closing Date, Seller
shall deliver to the Buyer a certificate in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit "M" (Certification of Non-Foreign Status) signed under penalty of
perjury (i) stating that it is not a foreign corporation, foreign
partnership, foreign trust or foreign estate, (ii) providing its U.S.
Employer Identification Number, and (iii) providing its address, all
pursuant to Section 1445 of the Code.

under Article 9E, and allowing Seller to discuss the reports or
assessments with the Person who prepared them:

          1.     Enter all or part of the Property with Seller's
representative, including all or any easements, to view the Pipeline,

conduct a surface only inspection and assessment, inventory, study and
examination of the same, independently of any documents, data or information
furnished by Seller hereunder; and

          2.    Inspect and review the Books and Records. Buyer acknowledges
that it shall not have access to (a) Seller's Pipeline Manuals used in the
operation of the Pipelines or (b) the process used by Seller for integrity
assessments, which are considered by Seller to be proprietary
property.

     B.    No Sampling. Buyer shall not have the right to perform any
sampling of any kind in connection with any site assessment, including, but
not limited to, any phase II site assessment on any portion of the Property.

     C.    Information is Confidential. Except as required by Law, all
information acquired by Buyer in any inspection, inventory, study, or
examination of the Property, and the results of any analysis thereof,
shall be kept confidential by Buyer from anyone other than Seller in
accordance with Buyer's executed Confidentiality Agreement. Should Buyer
be required by any Law to disclose any information concerning the
Property, Buyer shall notify Seller at least five (5) days (or as soon as
practical if five (5) days is not available) prior to Buyer's disclosure

materials, claims and causes of action arising out of any injury to or
death of any Persons or damage to property occurring to or on the
Property as a result of the exercise of Buyer's rights under this
article, except to the extent the indemnified event or occurrence arises
from or is caused by the sole negligence or fault of Seller. Seller shall
have the right at all times to participate in the preparation for and

to Seller on or before the last day of the Review Period, in the event
Buyer determines, during the Review Period, that the Property is subject
to any: (1) Material Adverse Environmental Condition or (2) Material
Defect. To be effective, any such notice shall specifically identify and
describe the basis for such termination, and shall include substantial
evidence of the Material Defect or Material Adverse Environmental
Condition leading to the termination notice. Neither (i) a minor
deviation in the location of a Pipeline, relative to a defined Right-of-
Way in an easement, (ii) a gap in the Right-of-Way nor (iii) a minor

termination by Buyer to Seller, this Agreement shall not be terminated
if, within thirty (30) days after Seller's receipt of such notice: (1)
Seller remedies or agrees to remedy, to a degree which is mutually agreed
during the referenced thirty (30) day period, such Material Adverse
Environmental Condition or Material Defect; or (2) Seller and Buyer
mutually agree on an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

    G.    Buyer's Termination. Notwithstanding the above, if Buyer can
provide substantial evidence that the Property is subject to Material
Adverse Environmental Conditions or Material Defects that, when totaled
together would expose Buyer to costs to remedy or cure, or the potential
for exposure for claims, damages, penalties, assessments or costs in
excess of ten percent (10%) of the Purchase Price, Buyer, in its sole
discretion, may terminate this Agreement.

     H.     Negotiation with Agencies. If Seller agrees to remedy any
specific Material Adverse Environmental Condition or Material Defect in the
Property, then all negotiations and contacts with Governmental Agencies
for approval and review of such remedial action shall be made by Seller,
and Buyer shall make no independent contacts with any of the Governmental
Agencies relative to such remedial action. Buyer shall receive copies of
all correspondence between Seller and any Governmental Agencies regarding
such remedial action.

     I.     Notice of End of Review Period. When the Review Period had
ended, or prior to that time if Buyer has completed its pre-acquisition
review, Buyer shall send Seller a notice, to the address provided in Article
24, that it has completed its pre-acquisition review.

     J.    Transition. When Buyer notifies Seller, in writing, that its pre-
acquisition review is complete, then Buyer and Seller shall enter into a
period of transition. During the transition period, Buyer's
representatives shall be allowed to "job-shadow" and/or consult with the
appropriate Seller employees for an agreed upon period of time. Seller

right (subject to the executed Confidentiality Agreement) to examine all
of Seller's title records relating to the Property, including but not
limited to, those listed on Exhibits "B" and "C" attached hereto.

     C.    Notice of Significant Title Defect. On or before the last day
of the Title Examination Period, Buyer shall give Seller written notice
of the land and property interests included in the Property, if any,
which have a Significant Title Defect. None of the following shall be
deemed to constitute a Significant Title Defect for purposes of this
Agreement (i) a minor deviation in the location of a Pipeline, relative
to a defined Right-of-Way in an easement, (ii) a gap in a Right-of-Way or
(iii) a minor encroachment onto a Right-of-Way. If any Significant Title
Defect cannot be or is not cured by Seller prior to the Effective Time,
Buyer may, at its election, in writing: (1) terminate this Agreement
without further obligation or liability by giving written notice of
termination to Seller at any time prior to Closing; (2) offer to acquire
the Property, including the portion affected by the Significant Title
Defect, subject to the terms of this Agreement, but at a reduced Purchase
Price, which offer Seller may accept or reject in its sole discretion; or

Significant Title Defect, without adjustment to the Purchase Price.

     D.    The Property is subject to senior and subordinated mortgages
granted in favor of Shell Pipeline Company LP. The mortgages are filed of
record in each of the counties where the Property is located. At Closing,
Seller will provide to Buyer fully executed Releases of Lien to be filed

                             Article 11
     Seller's Responsibility for Claims Relating to the Property

     A.    Seller's Environmental Responsibilities shall be as follows:

          (1)  Ongoing Remedial Work.

               (a)  Unless otherwise agreed, Seller shall retain full
responsibility for all costs, including capital, operating and maintenance
costs, incurred in connection with (i) any investigation and monitoring of
Environmental Conditions or (ii) any clean-up, remedial, removal or
restoration work of those Environmental Conditions, either of which is
ongoing on the Closing Date and that is required by any Governmental
Authority with applicable jurisdiction because of the presence, suspected
presence, release or suspected release of a Hazardous Substance in the air,
soil, surface water, or groundwater on or emanating from the Property
(hereinafter the "Ongoing Remedial Work"). The Ongoing Remedial Work is
listed on the Disclosure Schedule. Any equipment associated with the Ongoing
Remedial Work will remain the property of Seller. The performance of Ongoing
Remedial Work will be by the Seller, in the name of the Seller. The Seller
will obtain all necessary licenses, manifests, permits and
approvals to perform such work. All Ongoing Remedial Work and the
disposal of all waste generated by the Ongoing Remedial Work will be
performed in accordance with all applicable Laws.

               (b)  Buyer grants to Seller, at no cost to Seller, ingress,
egress, access to the Property and use of the lands (including land farming
activities) and utilities, including, but not limited to, electricity and
water, as needed by Seller to complete any of the Ongoing Remedial Work
described in this Article 11A.(1).(a). Seller's responsibility for any
Ongoing Remedial Work shall terminate upon Seller's receipt from the
applicable Governmental Authority of one of the following: (i)
concurrence in any form that remediation efforts are complete and the
site may be closed; (ii) No Further Action Required Letter or a similar
document issued by a Governmental Authority exercising jurisdiction over
the Ongoing Remedial Work; (iii) concurrence with the results of Seller's
risk based corrective action plan; or (iv) regulatory concurrence that
active remediation may be discontinued subject only to periodic
monitoring. Seller will conduct all communications concerning Seller's
remediation activities with all Governmental Authorities having
jurisdiction. Seller will provide Buyer with copies of all correspondence
with the applicable Governmental Authorities concerning Seller's Ongoing
Remedial Work, but Buyer shall not communicate with the Governmental
Authorities concerning Seller's Ongoing Remedial Work.

               (c)  Buyer shall notify Seller within seventy-two (72) hours
of any release within 500 feet of any of Seller's Ongoing Remedial Work. If
such a release occurs, Seller shall, at Seller's sole discretion and
expense, have the right to be present during Buyer's release cleanup
activities, take photographs, take notes or take soil samples.

               (d)  Should Buyer have a reportable release that directly
impacts or affects Seller's Ongoing Remedial Work at a site, then Seller
will transfer to Buyer the net present value of the amount of money Seller's
remediation consultants or personnel determine is reasonably required for
the completion of such Ongoing Remedial Work at the site where Buyer's
release occurred. Buyer shall thereupon assume full responsibility for the
Ongoing Remedial Work at the specific site along with the remediation of
Buyer's own release.

           (2)    Post Closing Assessment. Buyer, and it Affiliates and
transferees, are prohibited from conducting post Closing environmental
assessments, except in those cases (i) where a reasonably prudent
pipeline operator, not afforded the indemnities provided in this
Agreement, would conduct such assessments in the ordinary course of
business, (ii) where required or directed by a Governmental Authority
having jurisdiction or (iii) due to any legal or contractual requirements
related to the Property. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein,
should Buyer, or its Affiliates or transferees, conduct a post Closing
environmental assessment which is neither (i) of a type which a
reasonably prudent pipeline operator, not afforded the indemnities
provided in this Agreement, would conduct in the ordinary course of
business or (ii) required or directed by a Governmental Authority having
jurisdiction or (iii) due to any legal or contractual requirements
related to the Property, then Buyer, or its Affiliates or transferees,
shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller Indemnitees from any and
all Claims (including Claims for personal injury, death and/or property
damage) arising out of or resulting from such post Closing environmental
assessment.

          (3)    Seller shall not have any obligation to Buyer regarding any
environmental matter other than those obligations described in Article
11A.(1) above and is providing no environmental indemnity to Buyer under
this Agreement.

     B.   Seller is providing no general indemnity to Buyer under this
Agreement.

                               Article 12
       Buyer's Responsibility for Claims Relating to the Property

     A.   Buyer's Environmental Responsibility shall be as follows:

          (1)    Future Remediation Sites. Regardless of when the release
causing the Environmental Condition occurred, Buyer agrees to accept full
responsibility for all costs, including capital, operating and
maintenance costs, incurred in connection with (i) any investigation or
monitoring of Environmental Conditions or (ii) any clean-up, remedial,
removal or restoration work of those Environmental Conditions, if any,
either of which may be necessary on or after the Effective Time and
required by any Governmental Authority with applicable jurisdiction
because of the presence, suspected presence, release or suspected release
of Hazardous Substances in the air, soil, surface water, or groundwater
on or emanating from the Property (hereinafter the "Future Remedial
Work"); provided however, that as long as Seller's Environmental
Indemnity of Buyer is in place, such indemnity shall apply to any
Environmental Condition which would be included under that indemnity. The
performance of any Future Remedial Work will be by the Buyer, in the name
of Buyer. The Buyer will obtain all necessary licenses, manifests,
permits and approvals to perform such work. All Future Remedial Work and
the disposal of all waste generated by the Future Remedial Work will be
in accordance with all applicable Laws. It is expressly understood that
Buyer, under this Article, does not assume any responsibility for Ongoing
Remedial Work as that work is set out in Article 11A.(1) above.

           (2)    Monitoring of Wells. At such time as testing of Monitoring
Wells is the only work left with regard to a site on which Ongoing Remedial
Work was being done at the Effective Time, Buyer assumes the obligation to
continue any required testing of any Monitoring Wells on
the Property for Environmental Conditions. Buyer will promptly file any
required reports and send a copy of same to Seller. In addition, Buyer
assumes, as of the Effective Time all responsibility, including all costs
and expenses, for the testing of and reporting related to any other
Monitoring Wells associated with the Property and shown on the Monitoring
Well List attached to the Disclosure Schedule. Buyer will conduct these
monitoring activities until site closure is obtained as outlined in
