 If on or prior to five (5) full business days prior to the date of Closing, PURCHASER delivers to SELLERS written notice setting forth (1) defects which render the title of
LNP to a particular LNP PROPERTY or an interest therein other than Marketable Title (a “Title Defect”), or (2) errors made in the calculation of working interests or revenue interests set forth on Appendix I (“Interest Error”),
and (3) the diminution in the value of the LNP PROPERTIES which is occasioned by such defect or error, SELLERS shall cause LNP to use its best efforts and endeavors prior to Closing to cure such defect or defects. If such defect has not been cured
three (3) full business days prior to the date of Closing, and if no agreement in respect thereto has been reached by SELLERS and PURCHASER, and if such defects or errors which exist
 

21





  diminish the value of the LNP PROPERTIES by the aggregate sum of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) or more, PURCHASER shall have the right and option
to elect to:
 (a)       waive such defect or defects and proceed to Closing,
or
 (b)       terminate this agreement.
 PURCHASER shall notify SELLERS of the election provided it in this Section V.D. prior to the date of Closing, and the failure of PURCHASER to so notify SELLERS of its election prior to such time
shall constitute an election by PURCHASER not to terminate this agreement.

Remedies for Environmental Defects

cooperation and assistance of SELLERS, to:
 1.         enter all or any portion of the LNP PROPERTIES to inspect, inventory, test, investigate, study and examine the LNP PROPERTIES to verify the accuracy of the representations made by SELLERS in Section II.A.10;
 2.         conduct air, water or soil tests on the LNP PROPERTIES and make
such samples and borings and analyses as PURCHASER may consider necessary or appropriate for such purpose;
 3.         conduct such other independent inspections, inventories, tests, investigations, studies or examinations as may be necessary or appropriate in PURCHASER’S sole
judgment for the preparation of health, safety, environmental or other reports or assessments relating to the operation, use, maintenance, condition or status of the LNP PROPERTIES, and their compliance with all applicable laws, regulations,
ordinances, orders, permits and licenses; and
 

22





  4.         conduct an
independent assessment of the extent of any possible existing or contingent liabilities due or related to the operation, use, maintenance, condition or status of the LNP PROPERTIES.
 B.       Conduct of Review. All inspections and reviews shall be undertaken with a minimum of disruption to ongoing
operations and shall only be undertaken after reasonable notice to SELLERS. PURCHASER shall not undertake any destructive testing without the prior approval of SELLERS. PURCHASER shall provide SELLERS with a copy of the results and reports of all
such inspections, testing and reviews. PURCHASER shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless LNP, SELLERS and their affiliates, officers, directors, employees, attorneys and agents from any and all losses, liabilities, liens or encumbrances for labor
or materials, claims or causes of action arising out of any injury to or death of any persons, or damage to property occurring to or on the LNP PROPERTIES as a result of the exercise of PURCHASER’S rights under this Section VI.
 C.       Remedies for Environmental Defects. If, as a result of the
review of the LNP PROPERTIES conducted pursuant to Sections VI.A. and VI.B., PURCHASER determines that in its reasonable judgment there have occurred events or there exists a condition on the LNP PROPERTIES which constitutes a condition affecting an
LNP PROPERTY that is a violation of Environmental Law (an “Environmental Defect”) and on or prior to five (5) full business days prior to the date of Closing, PURCHASER delivers to SELLERS written notice setting forth (1) a description of
the Environmental Defect and (2) the diminution in the value of the LNP PROPERTIES which is occasioned by such defect, SELLERS shall cause LNP to use its best efforts and endeavors prior to Closing to cure such defect or defects. If such defect has
not been cured three (3) full business days prior to the date of Closing, and if no agreement in respect thereto has been reached by SELLERS and PURCHASER, and if such defects or errors which 
 

23





  exist diminish the value of the LNP PROPERTIES by the aggregate sum of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) or more, PURCHASER shall have the right and
option to elect to:
 (a)       waive such defect or defects and proceed to Closing,
or
 (b)       terminate this agreement.
 PURCHASER shall notify SELLERS of the election provided it in this Section VI.C. prior to the date of Closing, and the failure of PURCHASER to so notify SELLERS of its election prior to such time
shall constitute an election by PURCHASER not to terminate this agreement.
 VII
 Casualty Loss
 A.       Applicable Losses
and Notice. If prior to Closing any of the LNP PROPERTIES are so damaged or destroyed by fire, explosion or other casualty that LNP will be unable at and after Closing to use, operate, produce and maintain the LNP PROPERTIES
in the manner in which they are currently used, operated, produced and maintained by it, SELLERS shall promptly notify PURCHASER of such fact. SELLERS shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cause LNP to cure any such defect by repair or
replacement prior to the Closing.
 B.       Remedies. If
such defect has not been repaired or replaced prior to the Closing, and if the cost of repair or replacement thereof exceeds $100,000, PURCHASER shall have the right and option to elect to:
 1.         waive such defect or defects in respect of repair and replacement costs and proceed to Closing;
or
 2.         terminate this agreement.
 

24





  PURCHASER shall notify SELLERS of its election made pursuant to this Section VII.B. prior to the date of Closing, and the failure of PURCHASER to so notify
SELLERS of its election prior to Closing shall constitute an election not to terminate this agreement and to close the sale and purchase herein provided.

 Earnest Money
Deposit
 A.       Deposit. Contemporaneously with the
execution hereof, PURCHASER has deposited with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., at its offices in Denver, Colorado (“Escrow Agent”), the sum of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) as an earnest money deposit in connection with the agreement evidenced
hereby. Such sum shall promptly be invested by the Escrow Agent in an interest bearing account or deposit, bond, note or other security issued by the United States of America or any agency thereof, as selected and designated by the Escrow Agent in
the exercise of its sole judgment and discretion.
 B.       Action if Closing
Occurs. If the sale and purchase herein provided is closed, all of such earnest money deposit and the interest then accumulated or accrued thereon, other than the sum of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) shall be paid
and remitted to SELLERS as a portion of the PURCHASE PRICE provided to be paid and remitted to SELLERS.
 Such sum of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000)
shall be retained by the Escrow Agent for a period of six (6) months after the date of such Closing. If during such six (6) month period the chief executive officer or the chief financial officer of PURCHASER delivers to the Escrow Agent his or her
affidavit that there has occurred a breach by SELLERS of a representation or warranty contained in Section II.A. hereof and the amount of loss or damage sustained by PURCHASER as a result of such breach, the Escrow Agent shall pay and remit to

 C.       Action if Closing Does Not Occur. If the sale and purchase herein
provided is not closed on or before March 21, 2003, and if the failure to close such sale and purchase is the result of a breach by SELLERS of their covenants, promises and agreements herein made, then on the request of PURCHASER made after such
date, the Escrow Agent will promptly remit and refund to PURCHASER all of such sum so deposited and the interest then accumulated or accrued thereon. The request of PURCHASER for return of such deposit shall constitute a waiver and release by it of
any claim for specific performance of this agreement but shall not constitute a release or waiver of any other remedy available to it at law or in equity as a result of such breach by SELLERS.
 If the sale and purchase herein provided is not closed on or before March 21, 2003, and if the failure to close such sale and purchase is the result of a breach by PURCHASER of its covenants,
promises and agreements herein made, the Escrow Agent shall remit and pay to SELLERS all of such sum so deposited and the interest accumulated or earned thereon, and such sum shall be received by SELLERS as liquidated damages for such breach. Such
payment of liquidation damages shall be SELLERS’ sole remedy against PURCHASER for such breach.
 If the sale and purchase herein provided is not closed on
or before March 21, 2003, and if the failure to close such sale and purchase is not the result of a breach by either PURCHASER or SELLER of their covenants, promises and agreements herein made, the Escrow Agent shall remit and pay to PURCHASER all
of such sum so deposited and the interest accumulated or earned thereon.
