Within five (5) days of the selection of the Accounting

		Referee, Buyer and Seller shall each submit to the Accounting Referee in writing its position with respect to the Accounting Dispute, specifying in reasonable detail the basis for the Accounting Dispute.  The scope of the Accounting Referee’s engagement shall be limited to the resolution of the items described in the Accounting Dispute Notice given in accordance with the foregoing.  The Accounting Referee shall be instructed by the Parties to impartially resolve the Accounting Dispute as soon as reasonably practicable in light of the circumstances but in no event in excess of thirty (30) days following the submission of the Parties’ positions regarding the Accounting Dispute to the Accounting Referee.  The decision and award of the Accounting Referee shall be binding upon the Parties and final and nonappealable to the maximum extent permitted by Law, and decision and award thereon may be entered in a court of competent jurisdiction and enforced by any Party as a final judgment of such court.  Payment of any amount determined to be payable by the Accounting Referee hereunder or by the Parties pursuant to the agreed upon Final Settlement Statement shall be made in cash (via bank wire transfer) within five (5) Business Days after such determination.  The fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee shall be borne and paid one-half by Seller and one-half by Buyer.




			
			
				 1.4
			

			
			
			Allocation of Purchase Price.




		
			Concurrent with the execution of this Agreement, Buyer shall allocate the unadjusted Purchase Price among each of the Assets, in compliance with the principles of Section 1060 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the Treasury regulations thereunder.  Such allocation of value shall be attached to this Agreement as Exhibit “F” (the “Allocated Value”).  The Allocated Value for any Asset equals the portion of the unadjusted Purchase Price allocated to such Asset on Exhibit “F,” increased or reduced as described in this Article 3.  Any adjustments to the Purchase Price other than the adjustments provided for in Sections 3.2(a)(ii)(D),  3.2(a)(ii)(E) and 3.2(a)(ii)(F) shall be applied on a pro rata basis to the amounts set forth on Exhibit “F” for all Assets.  After all such adjustments are made, any adjustments to the Purchase Price pursuant to Sections 3.2(a)(ii)(D),  3.2(a)(ii)(E) and 3.2(a)(ii)(F) shall be applied to the amounts set forth in Exhibit “F” for the particular affected Assets.  After Buyer has provided the Allocated Values for the Assets, Seller will be deemed to have accepted such Allocated Values for purposes of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby but otherwise makes no representation or warranty as to the accuracy of such Allocated Values.  Seller and Buyer agree (i) that the Allocated Values, as adjusted pursuant to the foregoing, shall be used by Seller and Buyer as the basis for reporting asset values and other items for purposes of all federal, state and local tax returns, including, without limitation, Internal Revenue Service Form 8594, and (ii) that neither they nor their Affiliates will take positions inconsistent with such Allocated Values in notices to Governmental Entities, in audit or other proceedings with respect to Taxes, in notices to Preferential Purchase Right holders or in other documents or notices relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  Buyer and Seller further agree that, on or before the Final Settlement Date (or the Closing Date, in the event of a Like-Kind Exchange Transaction), they will attempt to agree, if necessary, to the further allocation of the Allocated Values included in Exhibit “F.”   If the Parties are unable to agree the dispute will be settled as provided in Section 3.2(c) above.

			Environmental Defects Notice.




		
			Upon execution of and pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Buyer (and Buyer’s environmental consultants) shall continue to have the right, at reasonable times during normal business hours, to conduct its investigation into the status of the physical and environmental condition of the Assets and their compliance with applicable Environmental Laws.  If, in the course of conducting such investigation, Buyer discovers that any Asset is subject to a material Environmental Defect, Buyer may raise such Environmental Defect in the manner set forth hereafter.  For purposes hereof, the term “material” shall mean that Buyer’s good faith estimate, supported by documentation, of the cost of remediating any single Environmental Defect exceeds Thirty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($30,000.00) net to the interest of the Seller, the Parties agreeing that such amount will be a per Environmental Defect threshold rather than a deductible.  No later than 5:00 p.m. local time in Houston, Texas five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date (the “Environmental Defect Notice Date”), Buyer shall notify Seller in writing specifying such Environmental Defects, if any, the Assets are affected thereby, and Buyer’s good faith estimate of the costs of remediating such defects, together with supporting

Prior to Closing, Buyer and Seller shall treat all information regarding any environmental conditions as confidential, whether material or not, and shall not make any contact with any Governmental Entity or third Person (other than Buyer’s representatives, consultants and lenders) regarding same without the written consent of the other Party unless required by Law.
		
Waiver of Environmental Defects.
		
			 
		

		
			If the Buyer fails to notify Seller prior to or on the Environmental Defect Notice Date of any Environmental Defects, all such defects, whether known or unknown, will be deemed waived (which waived defects shall be deemed Permitted Encumbrances), the Parties shall proceed with Closing, Seller shall be under no obligation to correct the defects, and Buyer shall assume its proportionate share of the risks, Liabilities and obligations associated with such Environmental Defects.
		

			
			
				 1.15
			

			
			
			Remedies for Environmental Defects.




		
			In the event any Environmental Defect relating to any of the Assets for which notice has been timely given as provided hereinabove, remains uncured as of Closing, Seller, at its sole option, shall (i) agree prior to Closing to cure or remediate, at Seller’s expense, such Environmental Defect as soon as reasonably possible after Closing and without any reduction to the Purchase Price in a manner acceptable to both Parties, or (ii) reduce the Purchase Price by the amount of the Defect Value as determined pursuant to Section 8.4, subject to the Thirty  Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($30,000.00) threshold described in Section 7.1 and the Defect Baskets described in Section 7.4.  Neither (i) (remediation) nor (ii) (reduction of Purchase Price) shall exceed the Allocated Value of such affected Assets.  If Seller elects the option set forth in clause (ii) above, Buyer shall be deemed to have assumed its proportionate share of such Environmental Defect and all Liabilities with respect thereto.  If Seller elects the option set forth in clause (i) above, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to implement such remediation in a manner which is consistent with the requirements of Environmental Laws in a timely fashion for the type of remediation that Seller elects to undertake and shall have access to the affected Assets after the Closing Date to implement and complete such remediation.  Seller will be deemed to have adequately completed the remediation required in the immediately preceding sentence (a) upon receipt of approval from the applicable Governmental Entities that the remediation has been implemented to the extent necessary to comply with existing regulatory requirements or (b) upon receipt of a certificate from a third Person licensed professional engineer that the remediation has been implemented to the extent necessary to comply with applicable Environmental Laws.
		
Defect Baskets.
		
			 
		

		
			The Parties agree that adjustments to the Purchase Price under Article 7 and Article 8 shall only occur to the extent that the Defect Value for all Environmental Defects exceeds Three Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($300,000.00) after taking the applicable materiality threshold into account and the Defect Value for all Title Defects exceeds Three Hundred

		Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($300,000.00) after taking the applicable materiality threshold into account. (the “Defect Baskets”), after taking the applicable materiality deductibles into account.  For the purpose of clarity, each Defect Basket shall be a threshold and not a deductible and there may be adjustments for Environment Defects and not Title Defects and vice versa.
		

			
			
				 1.16
			

			
			
			Purchase Price Adjustment for Environmental Defect.




		
			In the event any adjustment to the Purchase Price is made due to an Environmental Defect raised by Buyer, the Parties shall proceed with Closing, Seller shall be under no obligation to correct the Environmental Defect, and the Environmental Defect shall become an Assumed Obligation of Buyer.

The Conveyance shall be made with full substitution and subrogation to Buyer in and to all covenants and warranties by others heretofore given or made to Seller with respect to the Assets to the extent such may be conveyed by Seller.




			
			
				 (c)
			

			
			
			Buyer shall not be entitled to protection under Seller’s special warranty of title in the Conveyance against (i) any Title Defect reported under this Article 8, or  (ii) any Title Defect disclosed to or known by Buyer prior to the Title Defect Notice Date.




			
			
				 (d)
			

			
			
			Notwithstanding anything herein provided to the contrary, if a Title Defect under this Article 8 results from any matter which could also result in the breach of any representation or warranty of Seller set forth in Article 4, then Buyer shall only be entitled to assert such matter (i) before Closing, as a Title Defect to the extent permitted by this Article 8, or (ii) after Closing, as a breach of Seller’s special warranty of title contained in the Conveyance to the extent permitted by this Section 8.1, and shall be precluded from also asserting such matter as the basis of the breach of any such representation or warranty.

			In the event any Title Defect for the Assets, for which notice has been timely given as provided hereinabove, remains uncured as of Closing, Seller shall have the opportunity, but not the obligation, to cure until the Final Settlement Date (“Cure Period”) any such Title Defect, or, alternatively, Seller may elect to reduce the Purchase Price by an amount equal to the Defect Value as determined pursuant to Section 8.4, subject to the application of the Thirty  Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($30,000.00) threshold for each such Title Defect and the Defect Basket described in Section 7.4.  Should Seller elect to reduce the Purchase Price in this Section 8.3(a), those Assets affected by the Title Defect shall be transferred to Buyer at Closing. In no event shall the Defect Value for any Title Defect ever exceed the Allocated Value of such Asset.




			
			
				 (b)
			

			
			
			If Seller elects to attempt to cure a Title Defect for the Assets after Closing, Closing with respect to the portion of the Assets affected by such Title Defect will be deferred (the “Closing Deferred Property”).  Closing with respect to all other Assets will proceed as provided in this Agreement, but the Purchase Price delivered to Seller at such initial Closing shall be reduced by the aggregate Allocated Value of the Assets for all Closing Deferred Properties.  If Seller cures any Title Defect within the Cure Period, then the Closing with respect to the Closing Deferred Property for which such Title Defect has been cured will proceed and will be finalized within seven (7) days following the end of the Cure Period.  If Seller fails to cure any Title Defect prior to the expiration of the Cure Period, Buyer shall have the right to elect by written notice to Seller, which notice shall be delivered within seven (7) days after receipt by Buyer of notice from Seller of such failure to cure any such Title Defect, to waive all of the Title Defects applicable to any Closing Deferred Property (which waived Title Defects shall be deemed Permitted Encumbrances) and proceed to Closing on such Closing Deferred Property.  If Buyer does not elect to waive an existing Title Defect, Seller shall retain the Closing Deferred Property, and the Parties shall have no further obligation with respect thereto and such property shall not be subject to the terms of this Agreement.




			
			
				 (c)
			

			
			
			In the event any adjustment to the Purchase Price is made due to a Title Defect raised by Buyer, the Parties shall proceed with Closing, Seller shall be under no obligation to correct such Title Defect, and such Title Defect shall become an Assumed Obligation of Buyer.

			Environmental Defect and Title Defect Values.




		
			Upon timely delivery of notice of an Environmental Defect and/or a Title Defect under Section 7.1 or Section 8.2, respectively, Buyer and Seller shall in good faith use their reasonable efforts to agree on the validity and value of the claim for the purpose of making any adjustment to the Purchase Price (the “Defect Value”).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Defect Value for any Title Defect and any related adjustment to the Purchase Price shall in no event exceed the Allocated Value of the affected Asset.  In determining the Defect Value of an Environmental Defect or a Title Defect, it is the intent of the Parties to include, to the extent possible, only that portion of the Assets, whether an undivided interest, separate 
		

		 


		

			-  25  -

		




 


		

			 

		




		interest or otherwise, adversely affected by such defect.  The following guidelines shall be followed by the Parties in establishing the Defect Value of any Environmental Defect or Title Defect for the purpose of adjusting the Purchase Price if the validity of the claim is agreed to by the Parties and proper notice has been timely given, subject to (i) application of the appropriate individual thresholds as set forth in this Agreement for Environmental Defects and Title Defects, and (ii) application of the Defect Baskets requirement as set forth in Section 7.4 for Environmental Defects and Title Defects:
		

			
			
				 (a)
			

			
			
			If the Title Defect is based on a difference in Net Revenue Interest, net mineral acres or expense interest from that shown on Exhibit “A” or Exhibit “B” for the affected Assets, then the Purchase Price shall be reduced based on the difference between interest identified on the applicable exhibit and the applicable defect.




			
			
				 (b)
			

			
			
			If the Environmental Defect or Title Defect is liquidated in amount (for example, but not limited to, a lien, encumbrance, charge or penalty), then the adjustment to the Purchase Price shall be the sum necessary to be paid to the obligee to remove the defect from the Asset.




			
			
				 (c)
			

			
			
			If the Environmental Defect or Title Defect represents an obligation or burden upon the affected Assets for which the economic detriment is not liquidated but can be estimated with reasonable certainty as agreed to by the Parties, the adjustment to the Purchase Price shall be the sum necessary to compensate Buyer at Closing for the estimated adverse economic effect which the Environmental Defect or Title Defect will have on the affected Assets, taking into account all relevant factors, including, but not limited to, the following:




		
			(1)the Allocated Value of the Assets affected by an Environmental Defect or a Title Defect;
		

		
			(2)the economic assumptions Buyer utilized in the determination of the Allocated Value of the Asset, including prices, forecasts, production, reserves, discount factors or other relevant information; and
		

		
			(3)cost to remediate or otherwise resolve an Environmental Defect.
		

			
			
				 (d)
			

			
			
			If the Defect Value cannot be determined using the above guidelines, and if the Parties cannot otherwise agree on the amount of an adjustment to the Purchase Price, or if the validity of the claim as to an Environmental Defect or Title Defect cannot be agreed upon, then the Closing shall include the Asset(s) affected thereby.  If the validity of the claim is in dispute or if the Defect Value of the claim is in dispute, the Purchase Price at Closing shall be adjusted by Buyer’s good faith estimate of the Defect Value subject to Section 7.4.  In either case Buyer or Seller shall have the right exercisable within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date to refer the disputed matter to arbitration, and such disputed matter shall be exclusively and finally resolved pursuant to this Section 8.4.  There shall be a single arbitrator, (i) for Title matters shall be a title attorney, in good standing, with at least ten (10) years’ experience in oil and gas title involving properties in the regional area in which the Assets are located or (ii) for Environmental matters shall be an environmental attorney, in good standing, with at least ten (10) years’ experience in environmental matters involving oil and gas properties in the regional area in which the Assets are located, which shall be selected by mutual agreement of Buyer and Seller within fifteen (15)

		Business Days after Buyer’s referral of the disputed matter to arbitration under this Section 8.4, and absent such agreement, by the International Institute for Conflict Prevention & Resolution (“CPR”) (the “Defect Arbitrator”).  The Defect Arbitrator shall not have been employed by or performed services to either Seller or Buyer for a period five (5) years prior to the Closing Date.  The arbitration proceeding shall be held in Houston, Texas and shall be conducted in accordance with the Rules for Non-Administered Arbitration (the “Rules”) of CPR (but need not be administered by the CPR), to the extent such rules do not conflict with the terms of this Section.  The Defect Arbitrator’s determination shall be made within fifteen (15) Business Days after submission of the matters in dispute and shall be final and binding upon both Parties, without right of appeal.  In making his determination, the Defect Arbitrator shall be bound by the rules set forth in this Section 8.4 and may consider such other matters as in the opinion of the Defect Arbitrator are necessary or helpful to make a proper determination.  Additionally, the Defect Arbitrator may consult with and engage disinterested third parties to advise the arbitrator, including, without limitation, petroleum or environmental engineers.  The Defect Arbitrator shall act as an expert for the limited purpose of determining the specific disputed Environmental or Title Defect and Environmental or Title Defect Value submitted by either Party and may not award damages, interest or penalties to either Party with respect to any matter.  Seller and Buyer shall each bear its own legal fees and other costs of presenting its case.  Each Party shall bear one-half of the costs and expenses of the Defect Arbitrator, including any costs incurred by the Defect Arbitrator that are attributable to such third party consultation.  Within ten (10) days after the Defect Arbitrator delivers written notice to Buyer and Seller of his award with respect to the specific disputed Environmental or Title Defect and Environmental or Title Defect Value, Buyer shall pay to Seller the amount, if any, so awarded by the Defect Arbitrator to Seller.

			Option to Terminate for Defects.




		
			If the aggregate of the Defect Values attributable to all Environmental Defects and Title Defects determined pursuant to Articles 7 and 8 and the provisions of Section 9.3 below shall exceed ten percent (10%) of the Purchase Price after the application of the Defect Baskets set forth in Section 7.4, then either Buyer or Seller may terminate this Agreement without any further obligation by giving written notice of termination to the other Party at any time prior to Closing.

			Option to Terminate for Defects and Other Matters.




		
			If, prior to Closing the sum of (a) the aggregate Defect Values attributable to all Environmental Defects and Title Defects determined pursuant to Articles 7 and 8 and the provisions of Section 9.3 below, after application of the Defect Baskets set forth in Section 7.4, (b) the Allocated Values of all Assets excluded from the transactions contemplated hereby because of the exercise of Preferential Purchase Rights, (c) the Allocated Values of all Third Party Interest, and (d) the Allocated Values of all Assets affected by Casualty Losses excluded from the transactions contemplated hereby exceed Five Million and No/100 Dollars ($5,000,000.00), then either Buyer or Seller may terminate this Agreement without any further obligation by giving written notice of termination to the other Party at any time prior to Closing.

			Dispute as to Defect Values.




		
			In the event of a dispute between Seller and Buyer as to the Defect Value for an Environmental Defect or Title Defect, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith as to estimates of such Defect Value for purposes of this Article 9 only.  Should the Parties be unable to agree on a Defect Value, Seller’s good faith estimate of the Defect Value shall be utilized for purposes of this Article 9 only.

			- PREFERENTIAL PURCHASE RIGHTS AND CONSENTS OF THIRD PARTIES




			
			
				 1.26
			

			
			
			Actions and Consents.




			
			
				 (a)
			

			
			
			Seller and Buyer shall each use all commercially reasonable efforts to take or cause to be taken all such action as may be necessary to consummate and make effective the transactions provided in this Agreement and to assure that it will not be under any material corporate, legal or contractual restriction that could prohibit or delay the timely consummation of such transaction.




			
			
				 (b)
			

			
			
			Seller shall notify all holders of (i) Preferential Purchase Rights relating to the Assets, (ii) rights of consent to the assignment of the Assets, or (iii) rights of approval to the assignment of the Assets of such terms and conditions of this Agreement to which the holders of such rights are entitled.  Seller shall promptly notify Buyer if any Preferential Purchase Rights are exercised, any consents or approvals denied, or if the requisite period has elapsed without said rights having been exercised or consents or approvals having been received.  Notwithstanding anything set forth in Articles 7 and 8 herein, if prior to Closing, any such Preferential Purchase Rights are timely and properly exercised, the interest or part thereof so affected shall be eliminated from the Assets and the Purchase Price reduced by the portion of the Purchase Price allocated to such interest or part thereof as provided in Exhibit “F.”  The Parties agree that the Allocated Values for Assets subject to Preferential Purchase Rights shall be the sole responsibility of Buyer, and Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold Seller harmless from all Liability and Claims related to reasonableness of such values.




			
			
				 (c)
			

			
			
			With respect to any portion of the Assets for which a Preferential Purchase Right has not been asserted or waived prior to Closing or a consent or other approval to assign has not been granted and for which the time for election to exercise such Preferential Purchase Right or to grant such consent or approval has not expired and, in the case of consents or approvals, the reassignment of the affected Lease in the absence of such consent or approval having been obtained would (x) be void or voidable at the option of the holder of the consent or approval right, (y) subject buyer to a liquidated damages penalty or (z) give rise to an express right to terminate the affected Lease, (and Buyer is unwilling to assume the Liability associated with the failure to obtain such consent or approval), Closing with respect to the specific portion of the Assets subject to such outstanding obligations will be deferred (the “Third Party Interests”).  Subject to Section 9.2, Closing with respect to all other Assets will proceed as provided in this Agreement, but the Purchase Price delivered to Seller at Closing will be reduced by the Allocated Value of the Third Party Interests.  In the event that within one hundred twenty (120) days after Closing any such Preferential Purchase Right is waived or consent or approval is 
		

		 


		

			-  28  -

		




 


		

			 

		




		obtained or the time for election to purchase or to deliver a consent or approval passes (such that under the applicable documents, Seller may sell the affected Third Party Interest to Buyer), then subject to the terms and conditions hereof (including Article 12), the Closing with respect to the applicable portion of the Third Party Interests will proceed promptly.  If such waivers, consents or approvals as are necessary are not received by Seller within the applicable one hundred twenty (120) day period, Seller shall retain such Third Party Interests, and the Parties shall have no further Liability or obligation to each other with respect thereto.




			
			
				 (d)
			

			
			
			If any additional Preferential Purchase Rights are discovered after Closing, or if a Preferential Purchase Rights holder alleges improper notice, then Buyer agrees to cooperate with Seller in giving effect to any such valid Preferential Purchase Rights.  In the event any such valid Preferential Purchase Rights are validly exercised after Closing, Buyer’s sole remedy against Seller shall be return by Seller to Buyer of that portion of the Purchase Price allocated under Exhibit “F” to the portion of the Assets on which such rights are exercised and lost by Buyer to such third Person.




			
			
				 (e)
			

			
			
			- COVENANTS




			
			
				 1.27
			

			
			
			Covenants of Seller Pending Closing.




			
			
				 (a)
			

			
			
			From and after the date of execution of this Agreement and until the Closing, and subject to Section 11.2 and the constraints of applicable operating and other agreements, Seller shall manage and administer the Assets as a reasonable and prudent operator and in a good and workmanlike manner consistent with industry standard practices and shall carry on its business with respect to the Assets in substantially the same manner as before execution of this Agreement.  Prior to Closing, Seller shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to preserve in full force and effect all Leases, operating agreements, easements, rights-of-way, surface leases, permits, licenses and agreements which relate to the Assets and shall perform all obligations of Seller in or under all such agreements relating to the Assets; provided, however, Buyer’s sole remedy for Seller’s breach of its obligations under this Section 11.1(a) shall be limited to the amount of that portion of the Purchase Price allocated in Exhibit “F” to that portion of the Assets affected by such breach.  Seller shall, except for emergency action taken in the face of serious risk to life, property or the environment, (1) submit in writing to Buyer, for prior written approval, all requests for operating or capital expenditures and all proposed contracts and agreements relating to the Assets which involve individual commitments of more than Thirty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($30,000.00) net to Seller’s interest; (2) consult with, inform and advise Buyer regarding all material matters concerning the operation, management and administration of the Assets; (3) obtain Buyer’s written approval prior to voting under any operating, unit, joint venture, partnership or similar agreement relating to the Assets; and (4) obtain Buyer’s written approval prior to approving or electing to proceed as to any proposed well located on the Assets or to plug and abandon any Well.  On any matter requiring Buyer’s written approval under this Section 11.1(a), Buyer shall respond within two (2) Business Days to Seller’s written request for approval (unless Seller notifies Buyer in writing that a shorter time to respond is required in which case Buyer shall respond in the required time), and failure of Buyer to respond to Seller’s request for approval within such time shall release Seller from the obligation to obtain Buyer’s approval before proceeding on such matter.  With respect to emergency actions taken by Seller in the face of serious risk to life, property or the environment, without prior

		approval of Buyer pursuant to the provisions above, Seller will advise Buyer of its actions as promptly as reasonably possible and consult with Buyer as to any further related actions.




			
			
				 (b)
			

			
			
			Seller shall promptly notify Buyer of any threatened or actual Claim before any Governmental Entity of which Seller obtains Knowledge of and any Claim which relates to the Assets or which would reasonably be expected to result in impairment or loss of any material portion of the Assets or which would reasonably be expected to hinder or impede the operation of the Assets in any material respect.




			
			
				 (c)
			

			
			
			In addition, without the prior written approval of Buyer, Seller agrees to (i) not sell, lease, farmout, transfer or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Assets, except for sales of Hydrocarbons in accordance with those contracts or agreements set forth on Exhibit “D,” (ii) maintain all insurance with respect to the Assets currently in effect, (iii) remain in material compliance with all Laws with respect to its ownership and operation of the Assets as a reasonably prudent operator, (iv) not amend any material contract or enter into any contract affecting the Assets that would be considered a material contract if in effect as of the date of this Agreement, or (v) not waive or release any material Claim or right with respect to the Assets or settle any Claim with respect to the Assets, except to the extent constituting a Retained Obligation or an Excluded Asset, or the litigation referred to in Exhibit “H.”




			
			
				 (d)
			

			
			
			Seller shall cooperate with Buyer and shall execute such documents or instruments as may be reasonably necessary to apply for the timely transfer to Buyer or re-issuance in the name of Buyer of all permits, licenses, registrations or other approvals required for Buyer’s post-Closing ownership or operation of the Assets, including, without limitation, those required under or pursuant to Environmental Laws.




			
			
				 (e)
			

			
			
			As requested by Buyer from time to time, Seller agrees to notify each holder of interests in such Assets (which are the subject of such notice) before Closing that Buyer will purchase the Assets and to direct each such interest holder to make all such assignments of interest in the Assets to Seller.  With respect to any such assignments received by Seller after Closing, Seller agrees to promptly assign such interests to Buyer pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement as if such assignments had been made at Closing.  All such property interests, whether assigned to Buyer by Seller or such third Person, shall be Assets for all purposes of this Agreement.




			
			
				 1.28
			

			
			
			Limitations on Seller’s Covenants Pending Closing.




		
			To the extent Seller is not the operator of any of the Assets, the obligations of Seller in Section 11.1 concerning operations or activities which normally or pursuant to existing contracts are carried out or performed by the operator shall be construed to require only that Seller use all reasonable efforts (without being obligated to incur any expense or institute any cause of action) to cause the operator of such Assets to take such actions or render such performance as would a reasonable prudent operator and within the constraints of the applicable operating agreements and other applicable agreements.

			If, prior to the Closing, all or any portion of the Assets are destroyed by fire or other casualty or if any portion of the Assets shall be taken by condemnation or under the right of eminent domain (all of which are herein called “Casualty Loss” and limited to property damage or taking only), Buyer and Seller must agree prior to Closing either (i) to delete that portion of the Assets which is subject to the Casualty Loss from the Assets, and the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the value allocated to the deleted Asset as set out in Exhibit “F,” or (ii) for Buyer to proceed with the purchase of such Assets, notwithstanding any such destruction or taking (without reduction of the Purchase Price) in which case Seller shall pay, at the Closing, to Buyer all sums paid to Seller by third Persons by reason of the destruction or taking of such Assets and shall assign, transfer and set over unto Buyer all insurance proceeds received by Seller as well as all of the right, title and interest of Seller in and to any Claims, unpaid proceeds or other payments from third Persons arising out of such destruction or taking.

			Termination.




		
			This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to Closing: (i) by the mutual prior written consent of Seller and Buyer; (ii) by Buyer or Seller pursuant to Section 9.1 and 9.2 and Article 15; or (iii) by Seller or Buyer, if Closing has not occurred on or before April 12, 2013  (the “Outside Date”) provided that no Party in breach of any obligation hereof may terminate the Agreement.
		

			
			
				 1.39
			

			
			
			Effect of Termination.




		
			If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 16.1, this Agreement shall become void and of no further force or effect (except for the provisions of Sections 4(f),  5(f),  6.6,  6.7,  14.1,  14.2,  20.2,  20.12,  20.13 and 20.22 of this Agreement all of which shall continue in full force and effect), and Seller shall be free immediately to enjoy all rights of ownership of the Assets and to sell, transfer, encumber or otherwise dispose of the Assets to any party without any restriction under this Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the termination of this Agreement under Section 16.1(iii) shall not relieve any party from liability for any willful failure to perform or observe in any material respect any of its agreements or covenants contained herein which are to be performed or observed at or prior to Closing or if Closing has not occurred, by the Outside Date owing to the willful breach of a Party.  In the event this Agreement terminates under Section 16.1(iii) because a Party has willfully failed to perform or observe in any material respect any of its agreements or covenants contained herein which are to be performed at or prior to Closing, then the other Party shall be entitled to all remedies available at law or in equity in lieu of termination or otherwise and shall be entitled to recover court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees in addition to any other relief to which such party may be entitled.
		

			
			
				 1.40
			

			
			
			Other Remedies.




		
			Notwithstanding the foregoing, termination of this Agreement shall not prejudice or impair Buyer’s obligations under Section 6.4 (and the Confidentiality Agreement referenced therein).  The prevailing Party in any legal proceeding brought under or to enforce this Agreement shall be additionally entitled to recover court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees from the non-prevailing Party.
		

			
			
				 1.41
			

			
			
			Limitations on Damages.




		
			Notwithstanding any other provision contained elsewhere in this Agreement to the contrary, the Parties acknowledge that this Agreement does not authorize one Party to sue for or collect from the other Party its own punitive, consequential or indirect damages in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, and each Party expressly waives for itself and on behalf of its Affiliates any and all Claims it may have against the other Party for such damages in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

Indemnification Procedures.
		
			 
		

		
			All Claims for indemnification (an “Indemnity Claim”) under this Agreement shall be asserted and resolved as follows:
		

			
			
				 (a)
			

			
			
			For purposes of this Section 17.6, the term “Indemnifying Party” shall mean the Party having an obligation to indemnify the other Party and its related parties pursuant to this Article 17, and the term “Indemnified Party” shall mean the Party having the right to be indemnified by the other Party pursuant to this Article 17.




			
			
				 (b)
			

			
			
			To make an Indemnity Claim under Section 6.7, this Article 17 or Section 20.16, an Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of its Indemnity Claim, including the basis under this Agreement for its Indemnity Claim (the “Claim Notice”).  In the event that the Indemnity Claim is based upon a claim by a unaffiliated third Person against the Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall provide its Claim Notice promptly after the Indemnified Party has Knowledge of the Third Party Claim and shall enclose a copy of all papers (if any) served with respect to the Third Party Claim; provided that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice of a Third Party Claim as provided in this Section 17.6(b) shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations under Section 6.7, this Article 17 or Section 20.17 except to the extent (and then only to such extent) such failure results in insufficient time being available to permit the Indemnifying Party to 
		

		 


		

			-  38  -

		




 


		

			 

		




		effectively defend against the Third Party Claim or otherwise materially prejudices the Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend against the Third Party Claim.




			
			
				 (c)
			

			
			
			In the case of an Indemnity Claim based upon a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days from its receipt of the Claim Notice to notify the Indemnified Party whether it admits or denies its Liability to defend the Indemnified Party against such Third Party Claim at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party.  The Indemnified Party is authorized, prior to and during such thirty (30) day period, to file any motion, answer or other pleading that it shall deem necessary or appropriate to protect its interests or those of the Indemnifying Party so long as such pleading is not prejudicial to the Indemnifying Party.




			
			
				 (d)
			

			
			
			If the Indemnifying Party admits its Liability, it shall have the right and obligation to diligently defend, at its sole cost and expense, the Third Party Claim.  The Indemnifying Party shall have full control of such defense and proceedings, including any compromise or settlement thereof.  If requested by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party agrees to cooperate (to the extent reasonable) in contesting any Third Party Claim which the Indemnifying Party elects to contest.  The Indemnified Party may (at its sole costs and expense) participate in, but not control, any defense or settlement of any Third Party Claim controlled by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Section 17.6.  An Indemnifying Party shall not, without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, (i) settle any Third Party Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect thereto which does not include an unconditional written release of the Indemnified Party from all Liability in respect of such Third Party Claim or (ii) settle any Third Party Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect thereto in any manner that may materially and adversely affect the Indemnified Party (other than as a result of money damages covered by the indemnity).




			
			
				 (e)
			

			
			
			If, within the 30-day period after its receipt of the Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party does not admit its Liability or admits its Liability with respect to but fails to diligently prosecute or settle, the Third Party Claim, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend against the Third Party Claim at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, with counsel of the Indemnified Party’s choosing, subject to the right of the Indemnifying Party to admit its Liability and assume the defense of the Third Party Claim at any time prior to settlement or final determination thereof.  If the Indemnifying Party has not yet admitted its Liability for a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall send written notice to the Indemnifying Party of any proposed settlement, and the Indemnifying Party shall have the option for ten (10) days following receipt of such notice to (i) admit in writing its Liability for the Third Party Claim and (ii) if Liability is so admitted, reject, in its reasonable judgment, the proposed settlement.



Liability Limitation.
		
			 
		

		
			Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article 17:
		

			
			
				 (f)
			

			
			
			Seller shall have no Liability for indemnification for any Claims under Section 17.3 unless and until the cumulative total of such Claims exceeds in the aggregate an amount equal to three percent (3%) of the Purchase Price (the “Indemnity Deductible”), at 
		

		 


		

			-  39  -

		




 


		

			 

		




		which time all amounts of Liabilities (other than De Minimis Claims (as defined below)) in excess of the Indemnity Deductible may be claimed and recovered as provided in this Agreement; provided, however, that in the event that the aggregate Claims with respect to a single matter for which indemnity otherwise is provided under Section 17.3 is less than Fifty Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($50,000.00) (a “De Minimis Claim”) such Claims shall not be included in calculating the aggregate amount of Claims for determining whether the Indemnity Deductible has been satisfied and shall not be recoverable for any reason.  For the purpose of clarity, Seller agrees that the Indemnity Deductible and the De Minimis Claim amount shall not be applicable to its indemnification obligations in respect of Section 17.3(I) or Section 17.5.




			
			
				 (g)
			

			
			
			The aggregate Liability of Seller pursuant to this Article 17 shall be limited to an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the Purchase Price (the “Indemnity Cap”).  For the purposes of clarity, Seller agrees that the Indemnity Cap amount shall not be applicable to its indemnification obligations pursuant to Section 17.3(I) or Section 17.5.




			
			
				 (h)
			

			
			
			Notwithstanding Section 17.7(a) and Section 17.7(b), the Indemnity Deductible and Indemnity Cap shall not apply to Seller’s representations and warranties set forth in Sections 4(a),  (b),  (c),  (d),  (e),  (f) and (j).




			
			
				 (i)
			

			
			
			If an Indemnified Party recovers from any third party (including insurers) all or any part of any amount previously paid to it by an Indemnifying Party pursuant to Sections 6.7,  17.2,  17.3,  17.5 or 20.16, as applicable, such Indemnified Party will promptly pay over to the Indemnifying Party the amount so recovered (after deducting therefrom the full amount of the expenses incurred by it in procuring such recovery), but not in excess of any amount previously so paid by the Indemnifying Party; and




			
			
				 (j)
			

			
			
			Seller shall not be liable to indemnify Buyer for any Claim, and such Claim shall not be applied towards the deductibles in Section 17.7(a), to the extent such Claims constitute an Assumed Obligation.




			
			
				 (k)
			

			
			
			WITHOUT LIMITING THE RIGHTS THAT ANY PARTY MAY HAVE FOR FRAUD UNDER COMMON LAW, BUYER AND SELLER AGREE THAT, FROM AND AFTER THE CLOSING, THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY OF ANY PARTY WITH RESPECT TO ALL CLAIMS RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY CLAIMS REGARDING THE ASSETS ARISING OUT OF ANY ACTUAL OR ALLEGED BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE AS PROVIDED IN SECTION 6.7,  SECTION 20.17 AND THIS Article 17 SUBJECT TO LIMITATIONS IMPOSED THEREON CONTAINED IN THIS Article 17 AND SECTION 17.7.

			- GAS IMBALANCES




		
			Up to the Final Settlement Date, Seller and Buyer in good faith will use their reasonable efforts to update (to the Effective Time) the gas imbalance volume amounts listed on Exhibit “J.”  If, prior to the Final Settlement Date, either Party hereto notifies the other Party hereto that the volumes set forth in Exhibit “J” are incorrect, then Buyer or Seller will pay the other on the Final Settlement Date, as appropriate, an amount equal to $2.25 per net mmbtu variance from the net imbalance shown on Exhibit “J.”  Subject to such adjustment on the Final Settlement Date, as of

		the Closing, Buyer agrees to assume all Liability and obligation for gas production imbalances (whether over or under) attributable to the Assets (which liability and obligation shall be deemed Assumed Obligations).  Except as set forth in this Article 18, in assuming this Liability at Closing, Buyer shall not be obligated to make any additional payment over the Purchase Price to Seller, and Seller shall not be obligated to refund any of said price to reimburse Buyer for any over-balances existing at the time of sale.

			Public Announcements.




		
			The Parties agree that prior to Closing, each Party may publicly disclose the principal terms of this Agreement following its execution, and prior to making any public announcement or statement with respect to the transaction(s) contemplated by this Agreement, the Party desiring to make such public announcement or statement shall notify the other Party and exercise reasonable efforts to obtain approval of the other Party to the text of the public announcement or statement to be made solely by Seller or Buyer, as the case may be (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).  Nothing contained in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent either Party from disclosing information with respect to the transaction contemplated by this Agreement to any Governmental Entity to the extent (i) required by applicable Law; or (ii) necessary to comply with disclosure requirements of the New York Stock Exchange or other recognized exchange or over the counter, and applicable securities Laws.
		

			
			
				 1.52
			

			
			
			Filing and Recording of Assignments, etc.




		
			Buyer shall be solely responsible for all filings and the prompt recording of the Conveyance and any assignments and other documents related to the transfer of the Assets as contemplated hereunder, and for all fees connected therewith, including the fees charged by any Governmental Entity in connection with the change of operator, and Buyer shall furnish copies of all such filed and/or recorded documents to Seller once they become available.  Seller shall not be responsible for any loss to Buyer because of Buyer’s failure to file or record documents correctly or promptly.  Buyer shall promptly file all appropriate forms, declarations or bonds with Governmental Entities relative to its assumption of operations, and Seller shall cooperate with Buyer in connection with such filings.  Seller shall also comply with all notice provisions

			Further Assurances and Records.




			
			
				 (a)
			

			
			
			After the Closing, each of the Parties will execute, acknowledge and deliver to the other Party such further instruments, and take such other action, as may be reasonably requested in order to more effectively assure to said Party all of the respective properties, rights, titles, interests, estates and privileges intended to be assigned, delivered or inuring to the benefit of such Party in consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.  Without limiting the foregoing, in the event the Exhibits and Schedules incorrectly or insufficiently describe or reference a property or an interest intended to be conveyed hereby as described in the definition of “Assets,” Seller agrees to, within twenty (20) days of Seller’s receipt of Buyer’s written request, together with supporting documentation satisfactory to Seller, correct such Exhibit and/or execute an amended assignment or other appropriate instruments necessary to transfer the property or interest intended to be conveyed hereby to Buyer.




			
			
				 (b)
			

			
			
			Buyer agrees to maintain the files and records of Seller that are acquired pursuant to this Agreement for three (3) years after Closing.

			Incidental Expenses.




		
			Buyer shall bear and pay (i) all state, tribal or local government sales, transfer, gross proceeds or similar taxes incident to or caused by the transfer of the Assets to Buyer, (ii) all documentary, transfer and other state and local government taxes incident to the transfer of the Assets to Buyer; and (iii) all filing, recording or registration fees and other cash and expenses for any assignment or conveyance delivered hereunder.

			Waiver.




		
			Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, (i) any of the terms, provisions, covenants, representations, warranties or conditions hereof may be waived only by a written instrument executed by the Party waiving compliance, and (ii) the failure of any Party at any time or times to require performance of any provision hereof shall in no manner affect such Party’s right to enforce the same.  No waiver by any Party of any condition, or of the breach of any term, provision, covenant, representation or warranty contained in this Agreement, whether by conduct or otherwise, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be or construed as a further or continuing waiver of any such condition or breach or a waiver of any other condition or of the breach of any other term, provision, covenant, representation or warranty.

			Binding Effect; Assignment.




		
			All the terms, provisions, covenants, obligations, indemnities, representations, warranties and conditions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, and shall be enforceable by, the Parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.
		

			
			
				 1.58
			

			
			
			Taxes.




			
			
				 (a)
			

			
			
			Seller shall be responsible for all state, local and federal property, ad valorem, excise, severance and other similar taxes attributable to or arising from the ownership or operation of the Assets prior to the Effective Time.  Buyer shall be responsible for its proportionate share of all property, severance and other similar taxes attributable to or arising from the ownership or operation of the Assets on and after the Effective Time.  Any Party which pays such taxes for the other Party shall be entitled to prompt reimbursement upon evidence of such payment from the other Party.  Each Party shall be responsible for its own federal and state income taxes, if any, as may result from this transaction.




			
			
				 (b)
			

			
			
			Seller acquired the Assets for use or consumption, and Seller has not been engaged, nor held itself out as being engaged, in selling similar property on a repeated or continuing basis.  The Assets constitute an identifiable segment of Seller’s business within the meaning of Texas Comptroller’s Sales Tax Rule 34 Tex. Admin. Code § 3.316(d), and, accordingly, it is Seller’s belief that the sale of the Assets (other than any motor vehicles) is exempt from Texas sales and use tax as an occasional sale pursuant to Texas Tax Code 151.304(b)(2).




			
			
				 (c)
			

			
			
			If this transaction is determined to result in state sales or transfer taxes, Buyer shall be solely responsible for any and all such taxes due on the Assets acquired by Buyer by virtue of this transaction.  If Buyer is assessed such taxes, Buyer shall promptly remit same to the taxing authority.  If Seller is assessed such taxes, Buyer shall reimburse Seller for any such taxes paid by Seller to the taxing authority.




			
			
				 1.59
			

			
			
			Audits.




		
			It is expressly understood and agreed that Seller retains its right to receive its proportionate share of the proceeds attributable to the Assets from any audits relating to activities prior to the Effective Time, and Seller shall likewise pay its share of any costs attributable to the Assets and attributable to the period prior to the Effective Time resulting from any such audits.
		

			
			
				 1.60
			

			
			
			Like-Kind Exchanges.




		
			Each Party consents to the other Party’s assignment of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to its Qualified Intermediary (as that term is defined in Section 1.1031(k)-l(g)(4)(v) of the Treasury Regulations) and/or to its Qualified Exchange Accommodation Titleholder (as that term is defined in Rev. Proc. 2007-37 issued effective September 15, 2000) in connection with effectuation of a like-kind exchange, in whole or in part, as provided in Section 1031 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereto, and if applicable, Rev. Proc. 2000-37, 2000-2 C.B. 308 (Sept. 18, 2000), as amended by Rev. Proc. 2004-51, 2004-33 I.R.B. 294 (Jul. 20, 2004) (a “Like-Kind Exchange Transaction”).
		

		

		

		 


		

			-  44  -

		




 


		

			 

		




		However, Seller and Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any assignment of this Agreement to a Qualified Intermediary or Qualified Exchange Accommodation Titleholder does not release either Party from any of its respective Liabilities and obligations to the other Party under this Agreement, including, without limitation, indemnities, warranties, representations or covenants set forth in this Agreement.  If requested by the other Party, each Party agrees to cooperate with the other Party (to the extent reasonable) to attempt to structure the transaction as a Like-Kind Exchange Transaction.  If a Like-Kind Exchange Transaction occurs, the Parties recognize that IRS Form 8824, Like-Kind Exchanges, will be required to be filed, and each Party consents to the filing of such Form and will fully cooperate, to the extent necessary, with the other Party in filing such Form.
		

			
			
				 1.61
			

			
			
			Governing Law and Arbitration.




			
			
				 (a)
			

			
			
			THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED, CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS OTHERWISE APPLICABLE TO SUCH DETERMINATIONS.  The Parties agree that any dispute arising out of or relating to or in connection with this Agreement or the alleged breach thereof (a “Dispute”) shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures specified in this Section 20.12, which shall be the sole and exclusive procedures for the resolution of any such disputes.




			
			
				 (b)
			

			
			
			The Parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve any Dispute promptly by negotiation between the executive officers or managers of the Parties who have authority to settle the Dispute.  Either Party may give the other Party written notice of any Dispute not resolved in the normal course of business.  Within fifteen (15) days after delivery of such notice, the receiving Party shall submit to the other a written response.  The notice and response shall include (i) a statement of that Party’s position and a summary of arguments supporting that position, and (ii) the name and title of the executive officer or manager who will represent that Party and of any other person who will accompany the executive.  Within thirty (30) days after delivery of the initial notice, the executives of the Parties shall meet at a mutually acceptable time and place, and thereafter as often as they reasonably deem necessary, to attempt to resolve the Dispute.  All reasonable requests for information made by one Party to the other will be honored.  All communications and negotiations pursuant to this provision shall be confidential and shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of applicable rules of evidence.




			
			
				 (c)
			

			
			
			If the Dispute has not been resolved by negotiation as provided herein within forty-five (45) days after delivery of the initial notice of negotiation (or if the Parties failed to meet within thirty (30) days), the Parties shall endeavor to settle the Dispute by mediation under the CPR Mediation Procedure currently in effect, provided, however, that if one Party fails to participate in the negotiation as provided herein, the other Party can initiate mediation prior to the expiration of the forty-five (45) days.  Unless otherwise agreed, the Parties will select a mediator from the CPR Panels of Distinguished Neutrals, and all fees and costs of the mediator shall be borne equally.




			
			
				 (d)
			

			
			
			If a Dispute is not resolved by agreement among the Parties as provided in Section 20.12(b), and said Dispute was not resolved in mediation as provided in

		Section 20.12(c), then within ten (10) calendar days after the later of (i) the date of the mediation was conducted, or (ii) sixty (60) days after delivery of the initial notice of the Dispute as proved in Section 20.12(b), either Party may provide written notice to the other Parties of an intent to submit such matter to arbitration, and the Parties hereby agree, upon the request of such Party providing such notice, to submit the Dispute to binding arbitration to be held in Houston, Texas, such arbitration to be conducted in accordance with the Rules (but need not be administered by the CPR).  The Dispute must be resolved through arbitration regardless of whether the Dispute involves claims that this Agreement is unlawful, unenforceable, void or voidable or involves claims sounding in tort, contract, statute or common law.  The obligation to arbitrate a Dispute shall be binding on and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties.




			
			
				 (e)
			

			
			
			The arbitration shall be governed by Texas law, provided that issues involving application of arbitration law shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1 et.seq.  The arbitration shall be before a three-person (3) panel of neutral arbitrators (the “Arbitrators”).  No later than ten (10) days after the submission of the matter to arbitration, each Party shall select an Arbitrator and request the two (2) selected Arbitrators to select a third neutral Arbitrator.  This third Arbitrator shall be the presiding Arbitrator.  If the two (2) Arbitrators fail to select a third on or before the tenth (10th) day after the second Arbitrator was selected, either Party is entitled to request CPR to appoint the third neutral Arbitrator in accordance with the Rules.  Before beginning the hearings, each Arbitrator must provide an oath or undertaking of impartiality.  The presiding Arbitrator shall be a member of the CPR Panel of Distinguished Neutrals.  All Arbitrators shall be and remain at all times independent and impartial, and, once appointed, no Arbitrator shall have any ex parte communications with any of the Parties or any of their affiliates concerning the arbitration or the underlying Dispute other than communications directly concerning the selection of the presiding Arbitrator, when applicable.  All Arbitrators (whether appointed or nominated by a claimant or respondent, by the other Arbitrators, or by the CPR) shall be lawyers licensed to practice law who are in good standing and have at least fifteen (15) years of experience in representing parties engaged in the oil and/or gas business or in the handling of disputes involving application of oil and/or gas law.  No Arbitrator shall have been an employee or consultant to any Party or any of its Affiliates within the five (5) year period preceding the arbitration, or have any financial interest in the Dispute.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Dispute arises regarding the rights or remedies available to a Party or an Affiliate of a Party pursuant to a final award of an arbitral tribunal that is issued pursuant to this Agreement, such Dispute shall be heard and resolved by the same arbitral tribunal that issued the award, unless one or more of the Arbitrators serving on the arbitral tribunal that issued the award is unable or unwilling to serve as Arbitrator.




			
			
				 (f)
			

			
			
			Without limitation of the Arbitrators’ authority to decide any Dispute and grant any relief allowed by agreement, at Law, or in equity, the Arbitrators shall have the authority to award declaratory relief regarding future obligations of the Parties and declaratory relief regarding the remedies that are available to the Parties as allowed by agreement, at Law or in equity.




			
			
				 (g)
			

			
			
			All decisions of the arbitral tribunal shall be made by majority vote.  The award of the arbitral tribunal shall be final and binding.




		 


		

			-  46  -

		




 


		

			 

		




			
			
				 (h)
			

			
			
			Notwithstanding the agreement to arbitrate Disputes in this Section 20.12, any Party may apply to a United States Federal District Court sitting in Houston, Texas for interim measures pending appointment of the arbitration tribunal, including injunction, attachment and conservation orders as allowed by applicable Law.  The Parties agree that no court other than a United States Federal District Court sitting in Houston, Texas will have authority or jurisdiction to enter interim orders pending appointment of the arbitration tribunal, and the Parties agree that neither the Parties nor their Affiliates shall make any application for interim orders to any court other than a United States Federal District Court sitting in Houston, Texas unless that court would not have personal and subject matter jurisdiction.  The Parties agree that seeking and obtaining such court-ordered interim measures shall not waive the right to arbitration.  Additionally, the Arbitrators (or in an emergency the presiding Arbitrator acting alone in the event one or more of the other Arbitrators is unable to be involved in a timely fashion) may grant interim measures including injunctions, attachments and conservation orders as allowed by applicable Law, which measures may be immediately enforced by court order.




			
			
				 (i)
			

			
			
			Any disputes over the scope of discovery shall be determined by the Arbitrators.  The Arbitrators shall conduct a hearing no later than ninety (90) days after appointment of the presiding Arbitrator, and the Arbitrators shall render a written decision within thirty (30) days of the hearing.  At the hearing, the Parties shall present such evidence and witnesses as they may choose, with or without counsel.  Adherence to formal rules of evidence shall not be required, but the Arbitrators shall consider any evidence and testimony that they determine to be relevant, in accordance with procedures that they determine to be appropriate.  Any award entered in the arbitration shall be made by a written opinion stating the reasons and basis for the award made and any payment due pursuant to the arbitration shall be made within fifteen (15) days of the decision by the Arbitrators.  The Arbitrators will have no authority to award indirect, consequential, special or punitive damages or other damages not measured by the prevailing Party’s actual damages.




			
			
				 (j)
			

			
			
			All negotiations, mediation and arbitration relating to a Dispute (including a settlement resulting from negotiation or mediation, an arbitral award, documents exchanged or produced during a mediation or arbitration proceeding and memorials, briefs or other documents prepared for the arbitration) are confidential and may not be disclosed by the Parties, their respective Affiliates and each of their respective employees, officers, directors, counsel, consultants and expert witnesses, except to the extent necessary to enforce any settlement agreement or arbitration award, to enforce other rights of a Party, as required by Law or regulation (including stock exchange rules), or for a bona fide business purpose, such as disclosure to accountants, attorneys or shareholders; provided, however, that breach of this confidentiality provision shall not void any settlement or award.




			
			
				 (k)
			

			
			
			Any papers, notices or process necessary or proper for an arbitration hereunder, or any court action in connection with an arbitration or an award, may be served on a Party in the manner set forth in Section 20.5 for the giving of notices or any other manner allowed by Law.




			
			
				 (l)
			

			
			
			Any arbitration award may be confirmed by a United States Federal District Court sitting in Houston, Texas.  Any action to confirm, challenge, vacate or set aside the award in whole or in part may be brought in a United States Federal District Court sitting in Houston, Texas.  The Parties agree to jointly request that any such action be decided by the court on an 
		

		 


		

			-  47  -

		




 


		

			 

		




		expedited basis.  Any arbitration award may be recognized and enforced, and judgment on the award may be entered, by any United States Federal District Court sitting in Houston, Texas or by any other court of competent subject matter jurisdiction (including a court located in a jurisdiction in which a Party holds or keeps assets).  The Parties and their Affiliates agree to jointly request that any application for recognition or enforcement of an award be decided by the court on an expedited basis.  All Parties and their Affiliates waive their right to appeal any court order confirming, recognizing or enforcing an award.  The Parties and their Affiliates do not waive any rights they may have to appeal a court order refusing to confirm, recognize or enforce an award.




			
			
				 (m)
			

			
			
			The arbitral tribunal shall award costs, attorneys’ fees, fees of the arbitrators and expert witness fees to the prevailing party or parties.




			
			
				 1.62
			

			
			
			Entire Agreement.




		
			This Agreement and the Exhibits  hereto and the documents delivered pursuant to the terms hereof embody the entire agreement between the Parties and replaces and supersedes all prior agreements, arrangements and understandings related to the subject matter hereof, whether written or oral.  No other agreement, statement or promise made by any Party, or to any employee, officer or agent of any Party which is not contained in this Agreement shall be binding or valid.  This Agreement may be supplemented, altered, amended, modified or revoked by a writing only, signed by the Parties hereto.  The headings herein are for convenience only and shall have no significance in the interpretation hereof.  The Parties stipulate and agree that this Agreement shall be deemed and considered for all purposes as prepared through the joint efforts of the Parties and shall not be construed against one Party or the other as a result of the preparation, submittal or other event of negotiation, drafting or execution thereof.

			Severability.




		
			If any provision of this Agreement is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be deemed modified to the extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable, and if it cannot be so modified, it shall be deemed deleted and the remainder of the Agreement shall continue and remain in full force and effect.

			Suspended Funds.




		
			At Closing, Seller shall transfer to Buyer all funds, if any, held by Seller in suspense owing to third Persons on account of the sale of Hydrocarbons from the Assets, together with all information in the possession of Seller identifying the funds.  Buyer upon receipt of the funds shall assume all responsibility for the payment thereof to third Persons entitled to the same.  Buyer shall indemnify and hold Seller harmless for its proportionate share of Claims and Liabilities relating to or arising out of Buyer’s payment, mispayment or failure to make payments of any such funds.  Seller shall indemnify and hold Buyer harmless for Claims and

		Liabilities related to wrongfully withheld suspended funds attributable to the period of time prior to the Effective Time.  Notwithstanding anything the contrary set forth herein, the terms of this Section 20.16 shall survive the Closing.
		

			
			
				 1.66
			

			
			
			Survival.




			
			
				 (a)
			

			
			
			Representations and Warranties.  All of the representations and warranties of or by the Parties to this Agreement, excluding the special warranty of title of Seller contained in Section 8.1(b), will survive the Closing until twelve (12) months after the Closing Date (the “Expiration Date”), at which time all such representations and warranties shall expire (the time periods set forth in this Section 20.17(a) and Section 20.17(b) are each respectively a “Survival Period”).




			
			
				 (b)
			

			
			
			Covenants.  Except as otherwise provided herein, the covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement to the extent that, by their terms, they are to be performed or complied with (i) prior to or on the Closing Date, shall expire at Closing, and (ii) after the Closing Date, shall expire on the later of (x) the Expiration Date or (y) thirty (30) days after the period in which such covenant is to be performed.




			
			
				 (c)
			

			
			
			Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no Party shall have any obligation to indemnify the other pursuant to Section 17.2 or Section 17.3 (as those provisions apply to the representations and warranties only) unless a notice has been received by the Indemnifying Party prior to the end of the respective Survival Period.




			
			
				 (d)
			

			
			
			The covenants and agreements contained in Section 20.21 shall survive the Closing and shall remain in full force and effect as between the Parties and any of their Affiliates for a period of two  (2) years after the Closing Date.




			
			
				 1.67
			

			
			
			Subsequent Adjustments.




		
			Regardless of the date set for the Final Settlement, Buyer and Seller agree that their intent is to allow for the earliest practical forwarding of revenue and reimbursement of expenses between them, and Seller and Buyer recognize that either may receive funds or pay expenses after the Final Settlement Date which is properly the property or obligation of the other.  Therefore, upon receipt of net proceeds or payment of net expenses due to or payable by the other Party hereto, whichever occurs first, Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, shall submit a statement to the other Party hereto showing the relevant items of income and expense with supporting documentation.  Payment of any net amount due by Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, on the basis thereof shall be made within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of the statement.
		

			
			
				 1.68
			

			
			
			Counterparts.




		
			This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original instrument, but all such counterparts together shall constitute one (1) agreement.

				 1.69
			

			
			
			Change of Name.




		
			As promptly as practicable, but in any case within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall eliminate the names “ZaZa Energy, LLC,” ZaZa Energy Corporation,” and “ZaZa” and any variants of these names from the Assets acquired pursuant to this Agreement and, except with respect to such grace period for eliminating existing usage, shall have no right to use any logos, trademarks or trade names belonging to Seller or any of its Affiliates.
		

			
			
				 1.70
			

			
			
			Non-Compete Provision.




		
			(a)      As additional consideration for the consummation of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, the Seller has agreed that for a period of three (3) years from the Closing Date, that neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates, officers, directors, members, or managers,  (“Seller’s Parties”)  shall directly or indirectly, acquire or seek to acquire any additional acreage, oil and gas leasehold, mineral interests, or any other oil and gas interest within the area outlined in purple on the plat that is attached hereto as Exhibit “R ” (“Non-Compete Area”)  In the event the Seller’s Parties  acquire any additional acreage, oil and gas leasehold, mineral interests, or any other oil and gas interest within the Non-Compete Area, Buyer shall be entitled to an assignment from Seller’s Parties of any additional acreage, oil and gas leasehold, mineral interests, or any other oil and gas interest within fifteen (15) days after Seller’s receipt of written demand for an assignment from Buyer.  Buyer shall, upon receipt of an executed assignment or conveyance, in recordable form  of any such interest, reimburse Seller the actual consideration, costs and expenses paid to an unaffiliated third party for the additional acreage, oil and gas leasehold, mineral interests, or any other oil and gas interest.
		

		
			(b)     As a result of the unique nature of the oil and gas interests involved, Seller acknowledges that Buyer may be irreparably damaged by the acquisition of any additional acreage, oil and gas leasehold, mineral interest, or any other oil and gas interest within the Non-Compete Area.  Without prejudice to the rights and remedies otherwise available to Buyer, Buyer may be entitled to seek equitable relief, including an injunction or specific performance, in the event of any breach of this Section 20.21 of the Agreement.  Seller agrees to reimburse Buyer for all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by Buyer in enforcing the terms of this Section 20.21.
		

		
			 
		

			
			
				 1.71
			

			
			
			No Third-Party Beneficiaries.




		
			Nothing in this Agreement shall entitle any Person other than Buyer and Seller to any Claims, remedy or right of any kind, except as to those rights expressly provided to Seller Indemnitees and Buyer Indemnitees (provided, however, any Indemnity Claim hereunder on behalf of a Seller Indemnitee or a Buyer Indemnitee must be made and administered by a Party to this Agreement).
