and to the following terms and conditions: 
  

	1.	Accounting. All accounting matters between the Parties, including without limitation a final accounting with respect to the Properties operated by Assignor, will be handled in accordance with Exhibit
“C” hereto. Closing shall be the same date as the Effective Time (“Closing”). 

  

	2.	Indemnities, Assumption of Obligations, and Condition of the Properties. 

  

	 	(a)	Assignor’s Indemnities. Assignor agrees to release Assignee Group from and fully protect, indemnify, defend and hold harmless Assignee and Assignee’s officers, directors, employees and
representatives (collectively “Assignee Group”) from and against any and all claims, losses, damages, demands, suits, causes of action, and liabilities (including without limitation attorneys’ fees, court costs and costs of
investigation) (collectively, “Claims”), arising out of, or connected with, directly or indirectly, Assignor’s ownership or operation of the Properties prior to the Effective Time, relating to: (a) injury or death of any
person(s) whomsoever, (b) damages to or loss of any property or resources, (c) breach of contract, (d) common law causes of action such as negligence, strict liability, nuisance or trespass, and/or (e) fault or liability imposed
by law or regulation. 

 These indemnity and defense obligations apply regardless of cause or of any negligent acts or
omissions (including sole negligence, concurrent negligence, or strict liability), breach of duty (statutory or otherwise), violation of law, or other fault of Assignee Group, or any pre-existing defect. 

These indemnity and defense obligations shall NOT apply to the extent of any gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Assignee
Group. 
 NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING IN THIS ASSIGNMENT TO THE CONTRARY: (A) Assignor has no obligations under this
Section 2(a) or otherwise for Claims in respect of NORM (as defined below) or asbestos and (B) with respect to any Claims, other than NORM, its obligations under this Section 2(a) terminate effective 12:01 a.m., December 31, 2015
as to any and all Claims not raised to Assignor in writing prior to December 31, 2014, after which Assignor shall have no obligations with respect to any Claims not so raised by Assignee and with respect to any other liabilities relating to the
Properties except those matters expressly retained by Assignor; (C) in no event will Assignor have any liability hereunder or otherwise unless and until properly raised Claims exceed in aggregate $50,000 and then only for those Claims in excess
of $50,000; and (D) in no event shall Assignor’s liabilities hereunder or otherwise exceed fifty percent of the purchase price paid by Assignee for the Properties. Assignee agrees to be solely responsible for all Claims and other
liabilities of any kind up to $50,000 in aggregate and to be solely responsible for all Claims and other liabilities in excess of fifty percent of the purchase price of the Properties. 

All of the foregoing notwithstanding, Assignor’s indemnity with respect to any Claims relating to interest and penalties on suspended
proceeds for periods of time prior to the Effective Time shall survive indefinitely. 
  

	 	(b)	Assignee’s Indemnities. Assignee agrees to release Assignor Group from and fully protect, indemnify, defend and hold harmless Assignor and Assignor’s affiliates and the officers, directors, employees

other fault of Assignor Group, or any pre-existing defect. These indemnity and defense obligations shall NOT apply to the extent of any gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Assignor Group.

	 	(c)	Assignee’s Assumption of Obligations. Assignee agrees to timely and fully perform and discharge all duties and obligations of the Properties’ owner, including without limitation site restoration,
environmental remediation, pollution clean-up, and plugging and abandonment of all existing and future wells, pipelines and facilities. 

  

	 	(d)	NORM and Asbestos. Assignee acknowledges that the Properties have been used for hydrocarbon exploration, production, transportation and related activities. Assignee represents that it is fully aware that oil
and gas producing formations may contain naturally occurring radioactive material (“NORM”). Production activities may result in a concentration of NORM levels on production equipment and pipe so that when brought to the surface, a
health hazard may exist in connection with removal, handling and/or disposal of the NORM-contaminated equipment or pipe, if proper environmental, regulatory and industrial hygiene procedures are not followed. Assignee assumes all responsibility for
the presence of NORM on the Properties whether before or after the Effective Time and for all matters arising therefrom. Assignee also acknowledges that the Properties may contain asbestos, and Assignee assumes all responsibility for the presence of
asbestos and its removal and remediation and disposal, whether pertaining to the period before or after the Effective Time and for all matters arising therefrom. 


 

	3.	Leases and Other Information. This Assignment is subject to, and Assignee hereby assumes, all terms, covenants and, conditions and existing burdens and encumbrances of (a) the oil, gas and mineral leases and
other instruments listed on Exhibit “A” and Assignee shall perform all of Assignor’s covenants under the deeds and leases and previous assignments and amendments thereof; (b) the contracts, permits and licenses affecting
the Properties listed on Exhibit A and/or recorded in Rusk County, Texas and/or of record with the Railroad Commission of Texas and (c) any other instruments affecting the Properties or production therefrom that are recorded in Rusk County,
Texas. All of the foregoing are binding upon Assignee at and after the Effective Time. Assignee represents that it has reviewed and properly evaluated all related information made available to Assignee prior to the date this Assignment is entered
into and all other contracts, permits, licenses and other instruments it deemed advisable to review and evaluate prior to execution hereof. The contracts and other information pertaining to the Properties that were provided to Assignee
(collectively, the “Information”) were provided solely for Assignee’s convenience in conducting its own independent due diligence. On behalf of Assignee Group, Assignee hereby agrees: (a) Assignor, on behalf of Assignor
Group expressly disclaims any and all liability for or associated with quality, accuracy, completeness and materiality of Information, including without limitation: (i) existence of prospects, (ii) geographic, geologic or geophysical
characteristics associated with prospects, (iii) existence, quality, quantity or recoverability of reserves, (iv) costs, expenses, accounts payable, revenues, receipts or accounts receivables, (v) contractual, economic, financial and
tax information and data, (vi) continued financial viability and productivity of the Properties, (vii) title to the Properties, and (viii) environmental and other physical condition of the Properties; (b) Assignor has conducted
its own independent evaluation and analysis of Information and has satisfied itself fully as to the quality, accuracy, completeness and materiality of same; and (c) Assignee represents that it is sophisticated in the oil and gas business and
fully aware of inherent risks of error in acquisition, processing and interpretation of geological and geophysical data and (d) Assignee has relied solely on its own independent evaluation and analyses in deciding to enter into this Assignment
and acquire the Properties. 

  

	4.	Termination of Development Agreement. Upon execution of this Assignment, the Development Agreement dated May 1, 2013, between BP and Brammer shall be terminated, except for any obligation or liability which
accrued prior to such termination or which, by the terms, is intended to survive such termination. 

  

	5.	Compliance with Laws. This Assignment is subject to applicable laws, ordinances, rules and regulations, and Assignee shall comply with the same and properly obtain and maintain all permits and other
authorizations requested or required by governmental authorities asserting jurisdiction over the Properties.

	6.	Investment Representation. Assignee represents and warrants that Assignee is acquiring the Properties for its own account, for use in its trade or business or for investment, with no present intention of making a
distribution thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Assignee shall notify Assignor immediately of any federal and/or state securities laws(s) or Federal Trade Commission filing requirements and/or any other disclosure
requirements to which Assignee may be subject. 

  

	7.	Retained Records. Assignor shall furnish Assignee files in its possession to the extent pertaining primarily to the current operation of the Properties and not excluded under Exhibit “B”, except
Assignor may retain (at Assignor’s option and expense) originals or copies of any or all (a) files, (b) materials to which a legal privilege may apply and/or which are associated with litigation or other proceedings pending or
threatened by or against Assignor or Assignor Group, (c) tax records, and (d) records in connection with the accounting settlement until payments made thereunder have been agreed and paid in full. Assignee shall maintain records received
from Assignor for seven years after the Effective Time and afford Assignor full access thereto and a right to copy the records at Assignor’s expense. If Assignee desires to destroy the records, it shall notify Assignor prior to such destruction
and provide Assignor an opportunity to take possession of them at Assignor’s expense. Assignee shall afford Assignor full access to records and data produced after the Effective Time that are reasonably requested by Assignor in connection with
any litigation matter pertaining to the Properties or claim for indemnity or breach under this Assignment for which Assignor may have responsibility. It is no Parties’ intent to transfer any attorney work product other than title opinions or
attorney-client communications entitled to legal privilege, and any such records transferred to Assignee shall be promptly returned to Assignor and, if requested, Assignee will take such reasonable action as Assignor requests to maintain the
privilege as to such records.

Assignor except as required by law or listing agreement with a national security exchange and then only after prior consultation with Assignor as to the timing and content of the public statement or press release. 


 

	9.	Further Assurances. After Closing and on an on-going basis: (a) Assignee shall execute and deliver or use reasonable efforts to cause to be executed and delivered any other instruments of conveyance and take
any other actions as Assignor reasonably requests to more effectively put Assignor in possession of any asset or matter that was not intended to have been conveyed or was conveyed in error (including reassignment to Assignor of any Properties that
were conveyed in violation of valid preferential purchase rights or consents to assignment); and (b) Assignor shall execute and deliver or use reasonable efforts to cause to be executed and delivered any other instruments of conveyance and take
any other actions as Assignee reasonably requests to more effectively put Assignee in possession of the Properties conveyed or to have been conveyed in accordance with the terms of this Assignment. Assignee shall execute and deliver such instruments
and take such other actions as necessary or advisable to make all filings, registrations, and recordings with respect to the Properties in the records of the county and other governmental bodies, as applicable, including without limitation P-4

Properties shall be prorated as of the Effective Time, and amounts owing from such proration shall be settled in the final accounting referred to below. 

  

	3.	Revenues and Expenses: 

 (a) All expenses and capital expenditures and taxes, including
but not limited to excise taxes, state severance taxes, ad valorem taxes and any other local, state and federal taxes or assessments, except federal income tax (collectively “Taxes”) attributable to the Properties prior to

 (b) As soon as reasonably practicable, but no later than 45 days after Assignor receives
Assignee’s written report, the Parties shall meet to attempt to agree on any adjustments to the Final Accounting Statement. If the Parties fail to agree on final adjustments within the 45 day period, any Party may submit the disputed items to
Deloitte & Touche, LLP unless the Parties agree prior to the date of Closing to use another nationally recognized United States-based accounting firm who is independent of each Party (“Accounting Referee”). The
Parties shall direct the Accounting Referee to resolve the disputes within 30 days after its receipt of materials pertaining to the dispute (and each Party shall use its reasonable efforts to deliver such materials promptly to the Accounting
Referee). 
 (c) The Final Account Statement, whether as agreed between the Parties or as determined by a decision of the Accounting Referee,
shall be binding on and non-appealable by the Parties. The Accounting Referee shall act as an expert for the limited purpose of determining the specific disputed adjustments submitted by each Party and may not award damages or penalties to each
Party with respect to any matter. Assignor and Assignee shall share equally the Accounting Referee’s fees and expenses. 
 (d) Any
amounts owed by a Party to another Party under the Final Accounting Settlement shall be paid within 30 days after the earlier of: (i) the date on which the amounts are agreed by the Parties, and (ii) the date that the Parties receive the
Accounting Referee’s decision; and the revenues and expenses included in the Final Accounting Settlement shall be final and binding on the Parties and not subject to further review, audit or arbitration. 

 

	5.	Post-Final Accounting Settlement for Revenues and Expenses (a) Assignee shall pay Assignor any and all pre-Effective Time revenues received by Assignee (to the extent not accounted for in the Final
Accounting Settlement), and Assignor shall pay Assignee any and all post-Effective Time revenues received by Assignor (to the extent not accounted for in the Final Accounting Settlement). 


(b) Assignor shall reimburse Assignee for any and all pre-Effective Time expenses paid by Assignee (to the extent not accounted
for in the Final Accounting Settlement); and Assignee shall reimburse Assignor for any and all post-Effective Time expenses paid by Assignor (to the extent not accounted for in the Final Accounting Settlement). 

(c) The Party responsible for making payments pursuant to the above provisions shall make full payment to any other Party
within 90 days after receipt of the revenues in question or after receipt of a copy of the applicable invoice and proof that such invoice was paid for the expenses in question, as the case may be.

BINDING ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE PROCEDURES 
  

	1.	Negotiations. In the event that any dispute arises (except (i) disputes regarding accounting which will be handled exclusively as set forth in Exhibit “C” and (ii) disputes arising
under any confidentiality agreement signed by the Parties prior to the date hereof and pertaining to the Properties which will be handled in accordance with the terms of that confidentiality agreement), the Parties first shall seek to resolve such
disputes by negotiations as provided in this Article 1 between senior representatives who have authority to settle the controversy. 

  

	 	a.	Notification. When a dispute exists, any Party has the right to give the other Parties written notice of the dispute. 

  

	 	b.	Meeting Between Senior Representatives. Senior representatives of the Parties shall meet at a mutually acceptable time and place within fifteen days after a Party’s receipt of the notice of the dispute in
order to exchange relevant information and to attempt to resolve the matter. If a senior representative intends to be accompanied to a meeting by an attorney, he or she shall give the other Parties senior representative at least five days’
notice of such intention so that he or she also can be accompanied by an attorney. If a Party’s senior representative does not meet with the other Parties senior representative within such fifteen day period, the other Parties may at such
Parties sole option, either proceed to mediation under Article 2 below or proceed directly to arbitration under Article 3 below. 

  

	 	c.	Confidentiality. All negotiations are confidential and shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations under the United States Federal Rules of Evidence. 


2. Mediation. If the dispute has not been resolved within thirty days after a Party’s receipt of the notice provided in Article 1(a) and except as
otherwise provided in the last sentence of Article 1(b), any Party may initiate mediation of the dispute by sending the other Parties a written request that the dispute be mediated. The Parties receiving such a written request will promptly respond
to the requesting Party so that all Parties can jointly select a neutral and impartial mediator and schedule the mediation session. The dispute shall be mediated before a neutral, third party mediator applying by reference the Commercial Mediation
Procedures of the American Arbitration Association within thirty days after a Party’s receipt of the written request for mediation. If, within thirty days after a Party’s receipt of the mediation notice, the Parties do not jointly select
such mediator or do not jointly schedule a mediation session or attend the scheduled mediation session, or if the mediation session conducted pursuant to this Article 2 does not result in resolution of the dispute in question within five days after
such conclusion of the mediation session, then any Party may proceed to arbitration under Article 3 below. 
 3. Arbitration. Any dispute not
resolved by agreement of the Parties pursuant to Article 1 or Article 2 above will be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration using three arbitrators applying by reference the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American
Arbitration Association (the “AAA”), as supplemented to the extent necessary to determine any procedural appeal questions by the Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9 of the United States Code). If there is any inconsistency
between this Article and the Commercial Arbitration Rules or the Federal Arbitration Act, this Article shall control. 
  

	 	a.	Arbitration must be initiated within the applicable time limits set forth in this Exhibit and not thereafter or if no time limit is given herein, within the time period allowed by the applicable statute of limitations.
Arbitration, if initiated, must be initiated by a Party (“Claimant”) sending written notice on the other Parties (“Respondent”) that the Claimant elects to refer the dispute to binding arbitration.










	 	b.	Notwithstanding anything in Article 1 or Article 2 above to the contrary, if any Party deems that time is of the essence in resolving the dispute, it may initiate arbitration and seek interim measures, if appropriate,
and then comply with the provisions for negotiations and mediation as long as they are fully completed before the commencement of the final hearing on the merits in the arbitration proceeding. 


 

	 	c.	Claimant’s notice initiating arbitration must identify the arbitrator Claimant has appointed. The Respondent shall respond to Claimant within thirty days after receipt of Claimant’s notice, identifying the
arbitrator Respondent has appointed. If the Respondent does not name an arbitrator within the thirty day period, the AAA will name the arbitrator for Respondent’s account within thirty days after expiration of such period. The two
(2) arbitrators so appointed or named shall select a third arbitrator within thirty days after the second arbitrator has been appointed or named. If the two-appointed or named arbitrators cannot reach agreement upon the third arbitrator within
the thirty day period, the AAA promptly thereafter shall name an independent arbitrator to act as the third arbitrator. The Parties each shall pay one-half of the compensation and expenses of the arbitrators. All arbitrators must (a) be neutral
persons who have never been officers, directors, employees, or consultants or had other business or personal relationships with the Parties or any of their Affiliates, officers, directors or employees, and (b) be attorneys licensed to practice
in the State or Texas, having at least five years experience in the U.S. oil and gas industry. The location of all arbitration proceedings will be Houston, Texas. 


 

	 	d.	The Parties and the arbitrators shall proceed diligently so that the award can be made as promptly as possible. If the amount in controversy is less than or equal to one million dollars (US $1,000,000), the hearing
shall commence within thirty days after the selection of the third arbitrator. If the amount in controversy exceeds one million dollars (US $1,000,000), the hearing shall commence at such time as agreed by the Parties and the arbitrators but no
later than four months after the selection of the third arbitrator. Expedited discovery will be permitted if and as agreed by the Parties. If the Parties are unable to agree, the arbitrators shall resolve any discovery disputes consistent with the
Commercial Arbitration Rules of the AAA. Any matter involving an amount in controversy in excess of one million dollars (US $1,000,000) shall be treated as a large, complex commercial case as per the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the AAA.


  

	 	e.	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 have no right or authority to grant or award indirect,
consequential, punitive or exemplary damages of any kind except with respect to any obligation of indemnity owed for Claims as provided in this Assignment.
