 AGREEMENT 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the foregoing recitals, the agreements contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows: 
 1. Agreement of Sale and Purchase of Interests. Subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, the Sellers shall sell to the
Purchaser, and the Purchaser shall purchase from the Sellers, the Interests.

 2. Purchase Price; Closing. 
 a. Purchase Price. Subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, on the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall pay to
the Sellers, in the aggregate, an amount equal to $510,000,000.00 (the “Aggregate Purchase Price”), subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2(b), Section 10(e), and
Section 3 in consideration for the Interests. The Aggregate Purchase Price as adjusted pursuant to Section 2(b), Section 10(e) and Section 3 is herein referred to as the
“Interest Purchase Price.” The parties hereto agree that the Interest Purchase Price shall be allocated as set forth on Exhibit C. 
 b. Post-Closing Purchase Price Adjustment. If Working Capital as of the Closing Date exceeds $6,000,000 plus net income from
September 1, 2006 until the Closing Date, then cash equal to the excess will be paid by the Purchaser to the Sellers pro rata in accordance with the allocations to Sellers of the Aggregate Purchase Price. If Working Capital is equal to or less
than $6,000,00 plus net income from September 1, 2006 until the Closing Date, then a payment from the Sellers to the Purchaser will be made in an amount equal to the deficit. The cash held by the Entities on the Closing Date will be at least
$3,500,000 plus $1,800,000 of cash in the North Burbank Unit escrow account listed on Schedule 2(b) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules. “Working Capital” will be computed for the Entities on a consolidated basis as
(A) cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable and other short-term assets less (B)(i) accounts payable and other short-term liabilities plus (ii) all indebtedness for borrowed money, including interest and premium, if any, thereon
payable as of the Closing Date in connection with the repayment of such indebtedness in accordance with Section 8(b), with such GAAP items computed in accordance with GAAP consistently applied. Net income for purposes of this Section
shall be calculated before giving effect to permitted bonus payments set forth in Schedule 9(f) of the Sellers Disclosure Schedule. Purchaser shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to compute the calculations of Working Capital
as of the Closing Date and net income from September 1, 2006 until the Closing Date within 120 days after the Closing Date.  
 c. Closing. The closing of this transaction shall be held at 9:00 a.m. on Monday, October 31, 2006, or, if the conditions set forth in Section 11 have not been satisfied by that date,
two Business Days after the date on which the last of the conditions set forth in Section 11 shall have been satisfied or waived, in the offices of the Seller at 2455 East 51st, Suite 101, Tulsa, Oklahoma 74105, or at such other
time, place or method to be mutually agreed upon by the Parties (hereinafter, the “Closing” or “Closing Date”). 
 d. Withholding Rights. The Purchaser (in consummating the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) and the Entities (from and
after the Closing Date) shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as the Purchaser or an Entity may be required to deduct and 
  

 Page 2 







 withhold with respect to the making of such payment under any provision of federal, state, local or
foreign tax law. If the Purchaser or an Entity so withholds amounts, such amounts shall be remitted to the appropriate tax authority and treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of whom the Purchaser or
the Entity made such deduction or withholding. 
 3. Title Defects and Environmental Defects. 
 a. Title Defects. 
 I. As soon as reasonably practicable (and on an ongoing basis), but no later than 5:00 p.m. Central Time on Monday, October 23, 2006 (the “Objection Deadline”), the Purchaser may notify
the Sellers in writing of Title Defects affecting assets of the Entities or their Subsidiaries. The Purchaser’s notice asserting Title Defects shall include a reasonably detailed description and explanation (including any available supporting
documentation) of each Title Defect claimed, the assets affected, and the value that the Purchaser in good faith attributes to the Title Defect, which shall not exceed the Allocated Value of such property. The Purchaser and the Sellers shall meet
periodically to attempt to agree on resolution with respect to Title Defects. The Sellers shall have the right, but not the obligation, to attempt, at their sole cost, to cure or remove any Title Defects. The Sellers’ election to attempt to
cure a Title Defect shall not constitute a waiver of Sellers’ right to dispute the existence, nature or value of, or cost to cure, the Title Defect. In the event that any Title Defect(s) as to which the Purchaser has given the Sellers timely
notice as provided in this Section 3(a) are not remedied or cured prior to Closing, then, subject to the other provisions of this Section 3, the Aggregate Purchase Price shall be reduced by the aggregate value
of all such uncured Title Defects, determined as follows: (1) where the Sellers agree in writing with the value of the Title Defect as set forth in the Purchaser’s notice, that value shall be the value of the Title Defect; (2) if the
Title Defect is a lien, encumbrance or other charge upon a property which is undisputed and liquidated in amount, then the value of the Title Defect shall be the lesser of (A) the Allocated Value of such property or (B) the amount
necessary to be paid to the obligee to remove the Title Defect from the interest of the affected Entity or its Subsidiary in the affected property; (3) if the Allocated Value for a property is positive and the Title Defect represents a
discrepancy between the Net Revenue Interest for such property and the Net Revenue Interest for that property stated on Exhibit D, then the value of such Title Defect shall be the product of the Allocated Value for such property
multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the decrease in Net Revenue Interest and the denominator of which is the Net Revenue Interest stated on Exhibit D (it being understood that if such reduction in Net Revenue
Interest is not accompanied by a proportionate decrease in the Working Interest then such discrepency shall constitute a separate Title Defect); and (4) if the Title Defect represents an obligation, encumbrance, burden or charge upon or other
defect in title to the affected property of a type not described in subsections (1), (2) or (3) above, the value of the Title Defect shall be determined by taking into account the Allocated Value for the property so 
  

 Page 3 







 affected, the portion of the property affected by the Title Defect, the legal effect of the Title Defect,
the potential economic effect of the Title Defect over the life of the affected property, and such other factors as are appropriate to make a proper evaluation, in each case net to the interest, as represented on Exhibit D, of the
affected Entity and its Subsidiaries in the affected property. 
 II. De Minimis Title Defects and Title Defect
Threshold. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Purchaser shall not be entitled to an Aggregate Purchase Price reduction for any individual Title Defect that has a value (determined in accordance with
Section 3(a)) of less than $10,000 (a “De Minimis Defect”). In addition, notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Purchaser shall not be entitled to an Aggregate Purchase
Price reduction for Title Defects pursuant to Section 3(a) unless the aggregate value of all uncured Title Defects (“Aggregate Title Defect Amount”) exceeds $2,500,000 (the “Title Defect
Threshold”). 
 III. Disagreements as to Defect Amount. If the Sellers and the Purchaser are unable to
mutually agree upon the Aggregate Title Defect Amount at least two Business Days prior to the Closing Date, and if the Purchaser’s good faith estimate of the Aggregate Title Defect Amount exceeds the Title Defect Threshold, then at the Closing
(1) the portion of the Aggregate Purchase Price payable at Closing shall be reduced by the Purchaser’s good faith estimate of the Aggregate Title Defect Amount and (2) the Purchaser shall deliver to the Escrow Agent pursuant to an
escrow agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit E-1 attached hereto (the “Title Escrow Agreement”) the difference between the Purchaser’s good faith estimate and the Sellers’ good faith
estimate of the reduction to the Aggregate Purchase Price attributable to Title Defects. The disputed Title Defects shall be resolved post-Closing by arbitration conducted pursuant to Section 15(f). All amounts escrowed pursuant
to this Section 3(a)(III) shall be distributed by the Escrow Agent to the Sellers and/or the Purchaser, and the Aggregate Purchase Price shall be adjusted, in accordance with the arbitration decision reached in accordance with
Section 15(f). 
 IV. Post-Closing Curative. Provided that the Aggregate Title Defect Amount exceeds
the Title Defect Threshold, the Sellers shall have 90 days following the Closing Date to attempt to cure any Title Defect. Any disputes as to whether a Title Defect has been cured shall be submitted to arbitration conducted pursuant to
Section 15(f). With respect to any Title Defect that the Sellers cure, in whole or in part, within such 90-day period following the Closing Date, the reduction in the Aggregate Purchase Price made at Closing with respect to such
Title Defect shall be adjusted to reflect such curative, and the Sellers shall be entitled to periodic distributions from the Escrow Agent of amounts related to such cured Title Defects. In the event that the total amount owed to the Sellers as a
result of post-closing curatives pursuant to this Section 3(a)(IV) exceeds the total amount deposited with the Escrow Agent pursuant to Section 3(a)(III), then the Purchaser shall pay the Sellers the amount of
such excess, and the Purchaser 
  

 Page 4 







 shall cause the release of any amounts held in escrow to the Sellers, within five Business Days after the
end of the 90-day post-closing cure period (or, if defect disputes are submitted to arbitration pursuant to Section 15(f), within five Business Days after the final decision of the arbitrators). If, at the end of the 90-day
post-closing cure period, the aggregate value of all remaining Title Defects no longer exceeds the Title Defect Threshold, then the reduction of the Aggregate Purchase Price for Title Defects made at Closing will be reversed, and (after giving full
effect to any distributions previously made to the Sellers from the escrow account established pursuant to Section 3(a)(III)) the Purchaser shall pay the full amount of the reduction in the Aggregate Purchase Price remaining in
respect of such Title Defects to the Sellers. 
 b. Escrow for Environmental Defects. At Closing, $10,000,000 of the
Aggregate Purchase Price shall be deposited by the Purchaser with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“Escrow Agent”) pursuant to an escrow agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit E-2 attached hereto (the
“Environmental Escrow Agreement”). Such amount, together with interest or other earnings thereon, is referred to herein as the “Escrow Amount.” For a period of one (1) year after Closing, the
Purchaser may notify the Sellers in writing of any Environmental Claims or other non-compliance with Environmental Laws by either Entity, any Subsidiary of either Entity, or any Person whose liability for an Environmental Claim any Entity, or any
Subsidiary of any Entity, has retained, assumed or indemnified either contractually or by operation of law, occurring prior to the Closing (an “Environmental Defect”). Each such notice asserting Environmental Defects shall
include a report of an independent, third-party environmental consultant identifying and describing the Environmental Defect in reasonable detail, together with any other available supporting documentation, and the estimated amount necessary to
remediate, remove, repair, clean, and settle damages and claims associated with the Environmental Defect (collectively, “Environmental Remediation Costs”). The Escrow Agent shall, from time to time upon request by the
Purchaser and/or an Entity, distribute from the Escrow Amount to such Purchaser and/or Entity the Environmental Remediation Costs incurred by such Person with respect to timely asserted Environmental Defects. The Purchaser shall promptly notify the
Sellers in writing of each such distribution by the Escrow Agent, which notification shall include the date, amount and specific purpose of such distribution. Within sixty (60) days after the first anniversary of the Closing Date, the Purchaser
shall direct the Escrow Agent to disburse to Sellers the amount, if any, remaining in the escrow account after deduction of the remaining estimated Environmental Remediation Costs associated with timely asserted Environmental Defects. Thereafter, if
any amount remains in the escrow account upon final resolution of the timely asserted Environmental Defects and payment of all of Purchaser’s and/or the Entities’ Environmental Remediation Costs, such remaining amount shall be distributed
to the Sellers. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, (1) the Purchaser shall not be entitled to an Aggregate Purchase Price reduction for Environmental Remediation Costs for any individual remediation site that
are less than $10,000 (it being agreed that the existing environmental claims on the Fox Deese Unit and claims associated with the cleanup of the North Burbank Unit and South Burbank Unit each will be considered one remediation site for purposes of
this threshold) and (2) following the Closing Date, distributions from the Escrow Amount shall be the exclusive remedy available to the Purchaser for Environmental Defects.

 4. Seller’s Representations And Warranties. Except as set forth on the Seller Disclosure
Schedules (each Section of which qualifies the correspondingly numbered representation and warranty or covenant to the extent specified therein, provided that any disclosure set forth in the Seller Disclosure Schedules with respect to any
particular Section shall be deemed to be disclosed in reference to all other applicable sections of this Agreement if the disclosure in respect of the particular Section is sufficient on its face without further inquiry reasonably to
inform Purchaser of the information required to be disclosed in respect of the other sections to avoid a breach under the representation and warranty or covenant corresponding to the other sections) dated the date hereof and delivered to the
Purchaser concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement (the “Seller Disclosure Schedules”), each Seller hereby severally and not jointly represents and warrants to Purchaser, with respect to
itself/himself/herself, as follows: 
 a. Organization and Standing. To the extent Seller is a corporation,
partnership, limited liability company, trust or other entity formed under the laws of any state, Seller is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of its organization and in such other jurisdictions
necessary for the consummation of this Agreement. 
 b. Power. Seller has all requisite power and authority to carry on
its business as presently conducted and to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement. The execution and delivery of this Agreement does not, and the fulfillment of and compliance with the terms and conditions hereof will not,
violate, or be in conflict with, any provision of its governing documents, to the extent applicable, or any provision of any agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it is bound, or to any judgment, decree, order, statute, rule or
regulation applicable to it. No authorizations, consents or approvals of, or notices to or filings with, any third party or governmental authority are necessary for the consummation by Seller of the transactions contemplated hereby, except for such
authorizations, consents or approvals as shall have been obtained or such notices or filings as shall have been accepted before the Closing Date. 
 c. Authorization and Enforceability. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly and validly authorized by all requisite actions of the
Seller. This Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Seller and is enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject, however, to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws for the
protection of creditors generally, as well as to general principles of equity, regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. 
 d. Title to Interests. Seller owns the Shares indicated on Exhibit B-1, the Partnership Interests indicated on
Exhibit B-2 and/or the Membership Interests indicated in Exhibit B-3, and at Closing, will convey to Purchaser good and marketable title to the applicable Interests free and clear of any and all liens, mortgages,
claims, encumbrances, pledges or security interests and all other defects of title, adverse claims or other matters whatsoever (other than those arising under federal and state securities laws).

 e. Liability for Brokers’ Fees. Seller has not incurred any liability,
contingent or otherwise, for brokers’ or finders’ fees relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement for which the Purchaser, the Company or the Partnership Entities shall have any responsibility. 
 5. Shareholders’ Representations and Warranties Concerning the Company. Except as set forth in the Seller Disclosure Schedules, each
Shareholder hereby jointly and severally represents and warrants to the Purchaser that the statements contained in this Section 5 are true and correct as of the date of this Agreement. 
 a. Organization and Qualification. The Company is a corporation formed under the laws of the state of Oklahoma and is (1) duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Oklahoma and (2) duly qualified or admitted to do business and in good standing in each jurisdiction where the character of the properties owned or leased by it or
the nature of its activities make such qualification necessary. Except as disclosed in Schedule 5(a) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules, the Company does not directly or indirectly own any equity or similar interest in, or any interest
convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, any equity or similar interest in, any corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture or other business association or entity. The Sellers have previously delivered or made
available to the Purchaser correct and complete copies of the certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws or code of regulations (or other comparable constituent or organizational documents) of the Company, and each of which, as so delivered is
in full force and effect. 
 b. Power. The Company and its Subsidiaries have all requisite power and authority to carry
on their businesses as presently conducted and to enter into and perform their obligations under this Agreement. Except as set forth on Schedule 5(b) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules, the execution and delivery of this Agreement do not, and

 Page 25 







 Burlingame all material information then in the Company’s possession to enable Bob Burlingame to

that could result in curtailment of production after the Closing Date from any Partnership Operating Interests.

substantially equivalent expected total compensation (excluding any extraordinary bonus paid by the Company during 2006, but otherwise including bonus and benefits), subject to satisfactory performance by such employees at the Purchaser’s sole
discretion. Except for the foregoing, which shall be an obligation to the Sellers and not for the benefit of any other Person, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as requiring the Purchaser, the Company or the Partnership Entities to employ
any employee of the Company or the Partnership Entities for any length of time following Closing. Except as specifically provided in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, shall be construed to prevent the Company or the

benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement that the Company, the Partnership Entities or its or their affiliates may establish or maintain.

or beneficiary that he or she is entitled to a distribution from Seller’s 401(k) Plan on account of such termination. Purchaser agrees to cause a defined contribution plan maintained or contributed to by the Purchaser or any of its ERISA
Affiliates that is intended to be qualified under Sections 401(a) and (k) of the Code (“Purchaser’s 401(k) Plan”) to provide, upon such terms and conditions as may be established by Purchaser in its sole
discretion, each affected participant in Seller’s 401(k) Plan an opportunity to make a direct rollover to Purchaser’s 401(k) Plan of an eligible distribution of cash from Seller’s 401(k) Plan. Purchaser shall take such action, if any,
as may be necessary to ensure that Purchaser’s 401(k) Plan shall recognize service recognized under Seller’s 401(k) Plan for purposes of determining eligibility and vesting under Purchaser’s 401(k) Plan. 
 c. Office Lease. At Closing, the Purchaser will cause the Company to extend the Company’s Tulsa office lease for its principal

(b) acceptance or acknowledgement by any relevant taxing authority of such entities’ similar status under any corresponding provision of applicable state and local income tax Law. Sellers shall provide evidence (or access to information)

 III. None of Company or the shareholders of the Company shall revoke the
Company’s election to be taxed as an S Corporation within the meaning Sections 1361 and 1362 of the Code, take or allow any action (other than a change in Law) that would result in the termination of the Company’s status as a validly
electing S Corporation within the meaning of Sections 1361 and 1362 of the Code, or take or allow any action (other than a change in Law) that would result in the termination of any Subsidiary of the Company’s status for federal income tax

“Section 338(h)(10) Election”). Each Seller will include any income, gain, loss, deduction, or other Tax item resulting from the Section 338(h)(10) Election on its Tax Returns to the extent permitted by applicable law.
The allocation of the Purchase Price among the assets of the Company shall be made in accordance with Section 338 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. The Sellers shall, unless it would be unreasonable to do so,

Election to be equal to the after-Tax net proceeds that the Shareholders would have received had the Section 338(h)(10) Election not been made, taking into account all appropriate state, federal and local Tax implications (the “Tax
Adjustment”); provided, however, the maximum amount of the Tax Adjustment shall in no event exceed $17 million

such Seller hereby agrees to sell and assign, or cause any controlled Person to sell and assign, such properties or interests, together with any cash or other properties received thereon or derived therefrom, to the Purchaser at the purchase price

engage disinterested third parties to advise the arbitrators, including, without limitation, petroleum engineers, petroleum landmen, and environmental engineers and consultants, as appropriate. The arbitrators’ determination shall be made in
writing, including findings of fact and conclusions of law, within 45 days after submission of the matters in dispute. Judgment may be entered on the award, and the award may be judicially enforced. Except as provided in the Federal Arbitration Act,
the decision of the arbitrators shall be binding on and non-appealable by the Parties. The arbitrators shall act for the limited purpose of resolving the specific Arbitrable Disputes and may not award damages, interest or penalties with respect to
any matter. Further, the arbitrators shall have no right or authority to grant or award indirect, consequential, punitive or exemplary damages of any kind. The Parties shall each bear their own legal fees and other costs of presenting their case.
