ARTICLE VDISPUTED CLAIMS

Section 5.1

Right to Object to Claims.  Except to the extent a Claim is Allowed hereunder, the Debtors and, after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors shall have the exclusive right to object to the allowance, amount, or classification of Claims and such objections may be litigated (including to Final Order) by the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as the case may be, or compromised and settled in accordance with their business judgment without further order of the Bankruptcy Court.

Section 5.2

Deadline for Objecting to Claims.  As soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than ninety (90) days after the Effective Date, unless otherwise ordered by the Bankruptcy Court (which may be ordered upon ex parte motion of the Reorganized Debtors), all objections to Claims shall be filed with the Bankruptcy Court and served upon the Holders of each of the Claims.  An objection shall notify the Holder of the Claim of the deadline for responding to such objection.

Section 5.3

Deadline for Responding to Objections.  Within thirty (30) days after service of an objection, any written response to the objection must be filed with the Bankruptcy Court by the Holder of the objected-to Claim and must be served upon the Debtors or, after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors and upon counsel to the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors, as the case may be.  Failure to file a written response by that date shall constitute a waiver and release of the subject Claim, and shall cause the Bankruptcy Court to enter a default judgment against the non-responding Holder of the Claim granting the relief requested in the objection.

Section 5.4

Estimation of Claims.  The Debtors may request the Bankruptcy Court to estimate any contingent or Disputed Claim for purposes of allowance under section 502(c) of the Bankruptcy Code.

Section 5.5

Payment of Disputed Claims.  At such time as a Disputed Claim becomes an Allowed Claim, the Reorganized Debtors shall distribute to the Holder thereof the Distribution, if any, to which such Holder is then entitled under the Plan.  The Holder of a Disputed Claim that later becomes an Allowed Claim shall receive interest at the Applicable Rate from the Effective Date (or such earlier or different date as is provided for herein) to the date of the Distribution in respect of the Allowed Claim.  The Debtors or, after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors may, but shall not be required to, make a Distribution with respect to the portion of a Disputed Claim that is not in dispute (if any) pending the resolution of the entire Claim.

ARTICLE VIEXECUTORY CONTRACTS AND UNEXPIRED LEASES

Section 6.1

Assumption and Rejection.  On the Effective Date, all executory contracts and unexpired leases that exist between any of the Debtors and any Entity shall be assumed, except for any executory contract or unexpired lease that (i) has been assumed or rejected pursuant to an order of the Bankruptcy Court entered prior to the Confirmation Date1, (ii) is identified as an executory contract or unexpired lease to be rejected on the Effective Date on Exhibit C, as that Exhibit may be amended, restated, or supplemented prior to the commencement of the Confirmation Hearing, (iii) is separately addressed herein (including the Wayzata Credit Agreement), or (iv) has a different time period for assumption or rejection provided by order of the Bankruptcy Court or by agreement between the parties to such executory contract or unexpired lease.  Specifically included within this assumption are all obligations of contractual indemnity in favor of predecessors in title created through contracts governing the transfer of oil and gas leases to the Debtors.

1 The Debtors have already assumed all of their oil and gas leases pursuant to the Order Granting Motion for Order Authorizing Debtors to Assume Oil and Gas Leases entered on June 23, 2009.  The Debtors have also assumed two unexpired leases of non-residential real property pursuant to the Order Granting Debtors Motion to Assume Leases of Non-Residential Real Property entered on July 31, 2009. Nothing in this Disclosure Statement or the Plan should be construed as an admission or as a position taken by the Debtors as to the applicability or non-applicability of 11 U.S.C. § 365 to oil and gas leases.

Section 6.2

Approval of Assumption and Rejection.  Except as otherwise provided in the Disclosure Statement or in the Plan, entry of the Confirmation Order shall constitute (i) the approval, pursuant to sections 365(a) and 1123(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, of the assumption, assumption and assignment, or rejection of the executory contracts and unexpired leases, as the case may be, pursuant to this Article VI, and (ii) the extension of time pursuant to section 365(d)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code within which the Debtors may assume or reject the unexpired leases specified in this Article VI through the Confirmation Date.

Section 6.3

Cure of Defaults.  All cure payments that may be required by section 365(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code under any executory contract or unexpired lease that is assumed under this Plan shall be made by the Debtors on the Effective Date or as soon as practicable thereafter.  All requests for cure payments by a party to such assumed contract or lease must be filed pursuant to Section 2.1, unless such cure payments are agreed to by the Debtors or are otherwise determined by the Bankruptcy Court upon appropriate notice and hearing.  In the event of a dispute regarding the amount of any cure payment, the ability of the Debtors to provide adequate assurance of future performance or any other matter pertaining to assumption, the Debtor shall make such cure payments required by section 365(b)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code following the later of the Effective Date (or as soon as practicable thereafter) and the date of the entry of a Final Order resolving such dispute.

Section 6.4

Rejection Damage Claims.  Claims arising out of the rejection of an executory contact or unexpired lease pursuant to this Article VI must be filed with the Bankruptcy Court no later than thirty (30) days after entry of the Confirmation Order.  Any such Claims not filed within such time will be forever barred and shall not be enforceable against the Debtors or the Reorganized Debtors, or any of their properties or agents, successors, or assigns.  Unless otherwise order by the Bankruptcy Court, all Claims arising from the rejection of an executory contact or unexpired lease shall be treated as General Unsecured Claims.

ARTICLE VIIMEANS OF IMPLEMENTATION AND EXECUTION OF PLAN

Section 7.3

Causes of Action.

(a)

Except for the Causes of Action released pursuant to the releases set forth in Sections 4.4(a)(ii), 4.5(a)(ii), 4.6(a)(ii), 7.3(b) and 7.3(c), the Debtors and, after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors, specifically reserve and shall have the exclusive right to bring, prosecute, waive, release, compromise, and settle as representatives of the Estates all Causes of Action, which are specifically retained under the terms of this Plan and/or set forth on Exhibit C to the Disclosure Statement.  All retained Causes of Action shall be subject to the liens and security interests in favor of the Wayzata Parties as provided for herein.  The recovery from all Causes of Action shall become Assets of the Debtors and, after the Effective Date, the Reorganized Debtors in accordance with this Plan.  Further, subject to Sections 4.2 and 4.3 and the releases set forth in Section 7.3(b) and Section 7.3(c), the Debtors shall be entitled to offset such amounts as may be awarded to the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors with respect to such Causes of Action against Distributions due hereunder to the Holder of a Claim, whether Disputed or Allowed; provided that no such offset shall occur, and no Distribution shall be delayed, unless, until, and only to the extent that the Cause of Action is reduced to judgment by appropriate Governmental Authority or as agreed by the parties.  Subject to Sections 4.2 and 4.3 and the releases set forth in Section 7.3(b) and Section 7.3(c), neither the allowance of a Claim against the Debtors nor the making of Distributions pursuant hereto to a Holder of Claims will bar or limit the right of the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors to bring any Causes of Action held against the Holder of any Claim, even if the Claim that is Allowed or on account of which Distributions are made arises from the same agreement, transactions or occurrence from which the Causes of Action arise. For purposes of Plan implementation, the Reorganized Debtors shall constitute representatives of their respective Estates, fully authorized to prosecute all Causes of Action to final judgment pursuant to section 1123(b)(3)(B) of the Bankruptcy Code; provided that, if each of Classes 4 and 6 have accepted the Plan pursuant to section 1126 of the Bankruptcy Code, then there shall be established a committee (the Litigation Oversight Committee) which shall have oversight over and shall direct the Reorganized Debtors regarding the prosecution of any Cause of Action that accrued or was in existence (whether or not filed) as of the Petition Date and which has a claimed value to the Debtors or Reorganized Debtors of $250,000 or more, and which shall have authority to make decisions binding upon the Debtors and Reorganized Debtors concerning commencement, prosecution, settlement and/or litigation to judgment of such Causes of Action, except that, unless the Litigation Oversight Committee determines otherwise, any attorney retention agreement regarding the commencement, continuation or prosecution of such Causes of Action shall be a contingency fee agreement conforming to applicable non-bankruptcy Law.  If it is established, then the Litigation Oversight Committee (i) shall be entitled as a committee to retain counsel to represent it in the discharge of its duties, with the costs of such counsel to be paid by the Debtors and Reorganized Debtors, (ii) shall, along with its members, have a fiduciary duty to act in the best interests of the Debtors and the Reorganized Debtors and be covered by the attorney client privilege of the Debtors and Reorganized Debtors with respect to all matters covered by or related to its responsibility, and (iii) shall be comprised of the following or a designee of the following: (a) one member of the board of directors who is not also an officer; (b) one member of the Unsecured Creditors Committee or its designee; (c) one Holder of an Oil Well Lien Act Claim; (d) one Holder of an Equity Interest amounting to at least 8% of the outstanding Equity Interests of the Debtor who is not an officer of the Debtors; and (e) Andy Clifford or his designee as officer of the Debtors.  If it is established, then the Litigation Oversight Committee shall be chosen as of the Effective Date by (i) counsel for the Equity Holders Committee, (ii) counsel for the Unsecured Creditors Committee, and (iii) Ben Kadden, in consultation with other counsel for Holders of Oil Well Lien Act Claims.  If the Litigation Oversight Committee is established, notice of the selection of the Litigation Oversight Committee Members, together with a copy of the bylaws governing the Litigation Oversight Committee, shall be filed with the Bankruptcy Court as of the Effective Date.  For the avoidance of doubt, if each of Classes 4 and 6 have not accepted the Plan pursuant to section 1126 of the Bankruptcy Code, then no Litigation Oversight Committee shall be established.

The Louisiana Department of Revenue or the United States, acting through the Internal Revenue Service, as the case may be, shall give the Reorganized Debtors written notice thereof pursuant to the terms hereof, and the Reorganized Debtors may cure such default within twenty (20) days from the receipt of such notice.  If the Reorganized Debtors fail to cure a default within twenty (20) days after receipt of written notice of default, then the Louisiana Department Revenue or the United States, acting through the Internal Revenue Service, as the case may be, may (a) enforce the entire amount of its Allowed Claim; (b) exercise any and all rights and remedies allowed under applicable Law; and/or (c) seek such relief as may be appropriate in the Bankruptcy Court.
