INTERNATIONAL LEASE FINANCE CORPORATION, a California corporation (such corporation, and its successors and assigns under the Indenture hereinafter referred to, being herein called the “Company”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Security at the rate per annum shown above.  The Company shall pay interest semiannually on February 15 and August 15 of each year, commencing February 15, 2013.  Interest on the Securities shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for or, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, from August 21, 2012 until the principal hereof is due.  Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.  The Company shall pay interest on overdue principal at the rate borne by the Securities, and it shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the same rate to the extent lawful.

 

2.                                      Method of Payment

 

The Company shall pay interest on the Securities (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders at the close of business on the February 1 and August 1 next preceding the interest payment date even if Securities are canceled after the record date and on or before the interest payment date (whether or not a Business Day).  The Holders must surrender Securities to a Paying Agent to collect principal payments.  The Company shall pay principal and interest in money of the United States of America (“U.S.”) that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.  Payments in respect of the Securities represented by a Global Security (including principal and interest) shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by DTC.  The Company will make all payments in respect of a certificated Security (including principal and interest) at the office of a Paying Agent, except that, at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made by mailing a check to the registered address of each Holder thereof; provided, however, that payments on the Securities may also be made, in the case of a Holder of at least $1,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Securities, by wire transfer to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the payee with a bank in the U.S. if such Holder elects payment by wire transfer by giving written notice to the Trustee or a Paying Agent to such effect designating such account no later than 30 days immediately preceding the relevant due date for payment (or such other date as the Trustee may accept in its discretion).

 

3.                                      Paying Agent and Registrar

PARTICIPATION AND AMI AGREEMENT

 

COWBOY PROSPECT

 

This Participation and AMI Agreement (the “Agreement”) is by and between Orion Exploration Partners, LLC, an Oklahoma limited liability company (“ORION”), and Evolution Petroleum OK, Inc., a Texas corporation (“EPC”). EPC and ORION and/or their respective permitted assignees (each individually a “PARTY” and collectively the “PARTIES”) desire to set forth the terms and conditions of their agreement concerning each PARTY’s participation in ORION’s Cowboy Prospect encompassing the lands described in Exhibit “A”  attached hereto, all of said lands being located in Kay County, Oklahoma (the “Project”).

 

A.                                   Contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement, ORION and EPC have consummated a purchase and sale transaction under a Lease Acquisition Agreement dated April 17, 2012 (“Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which EPC has acquired an undivided interest in the oil, gas and/or mineral leases, interests acquired under forced pooling orders or farmin agreements and other related interests owned by ORION and described on Exhibit “B” attached hereto (the “Initial Interests”) equal to EPC’s Proportionate Share (as defined below) of ORION’s interest in and to the Initial Interests:

 

B.                                     Each of the Initial Interests is located within the Project.

 

C.                                    Subject to the other terms of this Agreement, each PARTY has agreed to participate with an undivided interest in the Project as set forth opposite its name in the table set forth below (each such PARTY’s interest set forth in such table is herein referred to as such PARTY’s “Proportionate Share”):

D.                                    It is the PARTIES’ intent that ORION will acquire additional Drilling Rights (as defined below) within the Project and that each PARTY will, or will have the opportunity to, acquire its Proportionate Share of any new Drilling Rights acquired in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and to participate in the exploration and development of the Project.

 

E.                                      Capitalized terms not defined above or in the body of this Agreement shall have the meanings given to them in Section XIX(a) below.

 

1

 

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the sum of Ten and No/100 Dollars ($10.00) in hand paid, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and for the mutual promises, covenants, terms, conditions and provisions contained in this Agreement, the PARTIES hereby agree as follows:

 

I.                                         QUARTERLY MEETINGS

 

Once every three (3) months during the term of this Agreement, the PARTIES shall meet at a mutually agreed time in ORION’s offices to conduct a review of the activities under this Agreement and ORION’s plans and budgets for activities under this Agreement for the following twelve (12) months, including proposed leasing activities, technical updates, and drilling, workover and other well operation schedules. As a forty-five percent (45%) owner of the Initial Interests and a development co-tenant in the Project (subject to provisions of this Agreement), ORION agrees that EPC shall have meaningful input at such meetings respecting ORION’s proposed budgets, leasing activities and drilling schedules. To facilitate EPC’s ability to make substantive contributions at quarterly meetings, ORION shall, in advance of such meetings, deliver in writing to EPC a meeting agenda that sets forth (a) specific opportunities within the lands covered by the Project (all lands within the Project, the “AMI”) in which ORION will recommend the immediate acquisition of Drilling Rights for future exploration and development (with the anticipated Acquisition Costs incident to acquiring such Drilling Rights, if available), (b) drilling plans (whether producing wells or saltwater disposal wells) for the ensuing twelve (12) months including, to the extent determined by ORION, proposed well locations, planned lateral lengths and anticipated Well Costs (as defined herein), and (c) technical topics and/or budget issues to be discussed at the upcoming meeting.

 

II.                                     LEASE ACQUISITION

 

(a)                                  ORION Acquired Leases.

 

(i)                                          From the date hereof until September 30, 2012 (“Acquisition Period”), ORION shall conduct, direct and control the acquisition of Drilling Rights in the AMI on behalf of EPC and itself. During the Acquisition Period, ORION shall, subject to the partial reimbursement obligations of EPC set forth below, be responsible for payment of all third-party costs associated with the acquisition of Drilling Rights within the AMI, such as, but not limited to, mineral takeoffs, oil and gas lease ownership reports and legal expenses directly and reasonably incurred in acquiring the Drilling Rights (but specifically excluding acquisition, drilling or division order title opinions), oil and gas lease bonuses, delay rentals, all third-party expenses and/or fees associated with farming-in Drilling Rights, purchasing mineral interests and/or royalties, broker’s fees, prepaid rentals and/or any other third party expense incurred and paid by ORION in acquiring the Drilling Rights (hereinafter referred to as “Acquisition Costs”). For the avoidance of doubt, Acquisition Costs shall include no overhead, general and administrative or other internal expenses of ORION associated with the acquisition of Drilling Rights; ORION acknowledging that its use of company employees or other resources are being fully compensated for by EPC through its payment of the AMI Management Fee.

 

(ii)                                       During the Acquisition Period, ORION shall acquire Drilling Rights in the AMI on behalf of EPC and itself; provided, however, ORION shall not expend on

 

2

 

behalf of EPC and itself more than $100,000 per month for the combined interests of ORION and EPC (“Monthly Cap”) for Drilling Rights within the AMI without the prior written approval of EPC. If such expenditure threshold is exceeded and EPC does not give its prior written approval, such Drilling Rights acquired by ORION that are attributable to Acquisition Costs in excess of the Monthly Cap (“Excess Drilling Rights”) shall be treated as AMI Interests subject to Section II(b) below. At the end of each calendar month, ORION shall deliver written notice to EPC notifying it of (A) the Drilling Rights acquired within the AMI in the previous month, including the material terms and conditions of each Drilling Right, and (B) the Governmental Section within which each Drilling Right is located, in addition to the information required pursuant to Section II(c) below. EPC shall be obligated to pay for its Proportionate Share of such Drilling Rights (including any Drilling Rights acquired before the date hereof but not included in the Initial Interests) on an actual cost basis (i.e. actual Acquisition Costs) plus a one percent (1%) AMI Management Fee (the “AMI Management Fee”); provided, however, that the AMI Management Fee shall not be applicable or due from EPC for any Drilling Rights comprised of interests acquired by or on behalf of ORION through forced pooling proceedings brought before the Oklahoma Corporation Commission (“OCC”).

 

(iii)                                    ORION will send a joint interest billing (“JIB”) to EPC for its share of Acquisition Costs (determined in accordance with the above) incurred for Drilling Rights acquired the previous month within the AMI, plus the AMI Management Fee, on or before the 10th day of each month. The JIB shall itemize Acquisition Costs on a Governmental Section-by-Governmental Section basis. EPC shall pay all JIBs within twenty (20) days from receipt thereof or the last day of the month, whichever is later. If EPC fails to pay a JIB when due, and such failure to pay is not remedied within ten (10) days following receipt by EPC of ORION’ s written notice of such failure to pay, EPC shall be in breach of this Agreement and, in addition to all other remedies available to ORION, at law or equity, EPC shall have no (A) right, title or interest in and to the applicable Drilling Rights subject to such non-payment and (B) rights to participate in the drilling of any wells proposed by ORION within the Governmental Section(s) subject to such non-payment for so long as such invoiced amounts remain outstanding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, EPC shall have no obligation to pay any items disputed in good faith set forth on a JIB until such dispute has been resolved in accordance with this Agreement or the applicable Operating Agreement; the intent being that, pending resolution of any amount disputed in good faith, EPC shall not be penalized under this Section ll(a)(iii) in connection with such disputed amounts; provided, however, that, pending resolution of any such dispute, EPC shall pay (X) all undisputed amounts when due under this Section II(a)(iii), and (Y) in connection with any wells or operations in which EPC elects to participate under this Agreement or the applicable Operating Agreement, EPC shall pay when due its Proportionate Share (proportionately reduced, if applicable, to its working interest in the applicable Drilling Unit) of any Drilling and Completion Costs, Fracing Costs, or other Well Costs in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the applicable Operating Agreement.

 

(iv)                                   ORION shall assign to EPC its Proportionate Share of the Drilling Rights acquired pursuant to this Section II(a). In assigning Drilling Rights to EPC, ORION shall use a form of Partial Assignment of Oil and Gas Leases (“Assignment”) substantially identical to the Partial Assignment of Oil and Gas Leases attached hereto as Exhibit “C”. ORION will execute and deliver to EPC each Assignment of Drilling Rights within five (5) days of receipt of payment by EPC of its Proportionate Share of Acquisition Costs for such Drilling Rights plus the

 

3

 

AMI Management Fee; provided, however, upon termination of this Agreement, ORION shall, within five (5) Business Days of termination, prepare and deliver an Assignment to EPC of any previously unassigned Drilling Rights owed to EPC. Notwithstanding anything in this Section II(a)(iv) to the contrary, ORION may withhold Assignments of Drilling Rights for so long as EPC has not paid any outstanding invoices for any such Drilling Rights submitted by ORION, as provided herein. Once an Assignment from ORION to EPC is required to be made hereunder, regardless of when actually executed or delivered, the interest to be assigned shall be deemed earned as of the effective date of the conveyance into ORION of such interest, and ORION shall then be obligated to execute and deliver the Assignment as provided herein, and ORION shall protect and defend the title to each earned interest until the Assignment thereof is executed and delivered to EPC.

 

(b)                                 Other Drilling Right Acquisitions; AMI Interests.

 

(i)                                          Nothing herein shall prohibit any PARTY from acquiring any Drilling Rights or any interest in salt water disposal facilities; provided that if, during the AMI Term (A) EPC should acquire any Drilling Rights or any interests in any salt water disposal facilities within the AMI, or (B) ORION should acquire any Drilling Rights or any interests in any salt water disposal facilities within the AMI after the Acquisition Period, or any Excess Drilling Rights during the Acquisition Period (in each case, an “Acquiring Party” and each such acquired interest, an “AMI Interest”), the other PARTY shall have a first and prior right to acquire its respective Proportionate Share of such AMI Interest on the terms and provisions provided in this Section II(b).

 

(ii)                                       In the event an Acquiring Party acquires or proposes to acquire an AMI Interest, the Acquiring Party shall promptly give written notice thereof (an “Acquisition Notice”) to the other PARTY (the “Notified Party”) and the Notified Party shall have thirty (30) days after receipt of the Acquisition Notice within which to elect to participate as to its Proportionate Share of such AMI Interest (and failure to respond in writing within said time shall be deemed an election not to so acquire). If a Notified Party elects or is deemed to have elected not to participate as to its Proportionate Share in such AMI Interest, the non-participating Notified Party shall have no right, title or interest in or claim to such AMI Interest. In the event a Notified Party elects to participate in the AMI Interest, then such AMI Interest shall become subject to this Agreement; otherwise (i.e. if a Notified Party fails to timely elect, or affirmatively elects not, to participate), the acquired AMI Interest shall be owned by the Acquiring Party and shall not be subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

 

(iii)                                    If a Notified Party timely elects to acquire its share of any AMI Interest, then such Notified Party (a “Participating Party”) shall be deemed to have incurred an irrevocable (A) obligation and agreement to pay its Proportionate Share of the actual cost and expenses which are or become due and payable to acquire or earn the AMI Interests (“AMI Interest Costs”), and (B) assumption of its share of all other obligations under any purchase and sale agreements, farmouts or other agreements applicable to such jointly acquired AMI Interests. In the event a Participating Party shall fail to timely pay any amounts due under clauses (A) or (B) above (i.e., in the manner prescribed in Section II(a)(iii) above including, for the avoidance of doubt, the ten-day cure period provided for in Section II(a)(iii)), the Acquiring Party may elect by written notice to such defaulting party given at any time after such failure to pay and prior to

 

4

 

receipt of payment to treat such defaulting party as a non-participating Notified Party under clause (ii) of this Section II(b), in which event such deemed non-participating Notified Party shall have no right, title or interest in and to the applicable AMI Interest that may be acquired or earned.

 

(iv)                                   In the case of a farmout, notwithstanding Section II(b)(iii)(A) above, no Participating Party shall be required to join in and pay for the completion of any well once casing point has been reached (if there is a casing point election under the applicable farmout or operating agreement) or to join in and pay for the drilling of any well if under the farmout the drilling of such well is optional rather than obligatory. If a farmout is acquired under which the drilling of any well is optional and any Participating Party elects not to join in the drilling of such well, then all Drilling Rights that may be earned (including rights to drill subsequent wells and earn additional Drilling Rights) by the drilling of such well shall be relinquished and all such rights shall be owned by the PARTY participating in the drilling of such well. A PARTY which has participated in the drilling of a well under a farmout but which elects not to participate in a completion attempt shall not be entitled to participate and acquire any interest in Drilling Rights earned by the drilling of such well if the farmout requires a completion attempt or a producing well to earn the Drilling Rights subject to the farmout, but the Drilling Rights earned shall be owned solely by the PARTY completing the earning well.

 

(v)                                      In assigning any AMI Interest to a Participating Party, the Acquiring Party shall use the form of the Assignment. The provisions of this Section II(b) shall apply only to AMI Interests acquired by (A) EPC after the date of this Agreement and during the AMI Term, and (B) ORION after the end of the Acquisition Period and during the AMI Term or, to the extent such AMI Interests are Excess Drilling Rights, at any time after the date of this Agreement and during the AMI Term.

 

(c)                                  Information to be Provided. In the event a PARTY is required to offer the other PARTY the right to participate in the acquisition of any Drilling Rights or AMI Interests pursuant to this Section II, the PARTY offering such rights shall include in the offer notice to the other PARTY copies of all relevant agreements, including any proposed purchase and sale agreement or, if no such agreement exists, a term sheet showing the relevant acquisition terms including a schedule of any leases to be acquired or earned, the Acquisition Costs, AMI Interest Costs or, if a farmout, an AFE for the estimated actual costs of performing the operations necessary to earn the interest under the farmout, copies of all title information pertaining to the Drilling Rights or AMI Interests to be acquired that is available to the offering PARTY (including the net acres available, applicable primary terms and applicable lessor’s royalties), a copy of any Phase I environmental site assessment obtained and, if the acquisition is a saltwater disposal well, the capacity and condition of the well (including, if in such offering PARTY’s actual possession or reasonably accessible to the offering PARTY free of cost, evidence that such well has passed, or is able to pass, mechanical integrity tests). In addition to the foregoing, the offering PARTY shall deliver to the other PARTY copies of such additional agreements, data, schedules, and other information in the offering PARTY’s possession as the other PARTY may reasonably request in order to evaluate whether to participate in the acquisition of the Drilling Rights or AMI Interests. In the case of a saltwater disposal facility, if the Acquiring Party has not conducted or obtained a Phase I environmental site assessment, a Notified Party shall have the right to conduct its own Phase I environmental site assessment with respect to the

 

5

 

facility to be acquired in which event the Notified Party shall have sixty (60) days after receipt of the Acquisition Notice to elect to acquire its Proportionate Share in the saltwater disposal facilities.

 

(d)                                 Affiliate Acquisitions. The provisions of this Section II shall apply to Drilling Rights and AMI Interests acquired not only by the PARTIES, but also to Drilling Rights and AMI Interests so acquired by any Affiliate of a PARTY or a representative or agent of either of them. Each PARTY covenants and agrees with the other PARTY that it will cause each of its Affiliates, representatives and agents to comply with the provisions of this Section II in the same manner and with the same effect as if such Affiliate, representative or agent was a PARTY. Further, each PARTY agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the other PARTY from any and all losses and damages for failure to fully comply with the foregoing covenant and agreement respecting such PARTY’s Affiliates, representatives or agents.

 

III.                                 TITLE REPRESENTATIONS AND VERIFICATION OF DRILLING RIGHTS

 

The representations of title made by any PARTY herein, as well as all Assignments required herein to be made, or caused to be made, by a PARTY, are made without warranty of title except by, through or under the PARTY (which for the avoidance of doubt, will include any parties acquiring Drilling Rights or AMI Interests on behalf of a PARTY), but not otherwise. Except for the special warranty of title set forth in the Assignment, no PARTY makes any other warranty of title regarding Drilling Rights or AMI Interests acquired hereunder.

 

IV.                                COMMITMENT WELLS

 

(a)                                  Designation of Commitment Wells. As used herein, the “Commitment Wells” shall be (i) the first three (3) wells drilled under this Agreement, plus (ii) subject to Section IV(b) below, a single, substitute well (“Substitute Well”), if any, for the first well which fails to meet the “Qualifying Criteria” as defined below for a saltwater disposal well or horizontal producing well. The PARTIES contemplate that the first three (3) Commitment Wells shall be as follows, each of which being more particularly described on Exhibits “E-1”, “E-2” and “E-3”, inclusive of the applicable AFEs:

Well must be drilled to at   least a 1,500’ horizontal displacement in the Mississippian Formation (in   accordance with the applicable AFE)
    

 

The PARTIES agree that the Hercyk SWD #1-31 well will be the first well drilled under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, EPC is committing under this Section IV to participate in a maximum of one (1) Substitute Well.

 

(b)                                 Commitment to Participate. Each PARTY hereby irrevocably commits to participate and prepay for its Proportionate Share (proportionately reduced, if applicable, to its working interest in a Drilling Unit) of the cost to drill and complete (or plug and abandon) the Commitment Wells together with a one percent (1%) Management Fee, all as more fully set forth below. The anticipated spud date for the first of the Commitment Wells is May 15, 2012, with the third of the Commitment Wells to be spud no later than September 1, 2012; provided, however, ORION shall, subject to any delay due to Force Majeure, use commercially reasonable efforts to spud the third Commitment Well no later than August 1, 2012. Each Commitment Well shall be drilled and completed (or plugged and abandoned) in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and, to the extent not inconsistent with this Agreement, the Operating Agreement. EPC shall have no right to go non-consent in or, prior to ORION’s drilling and, if applicable, completion of the applicable Commitment Well, to propose an alternative operation to any Commitment Well. If; during the drilling of a Commitment Well, the same is abandoned prior to such Commitment Well meeting the Qualifying Criteria for such well due to (A) mechanical difficulties, down hole obstructions, the encountering of granite or other practically impenetrable rock or substances, or (B) the encountering of conditions in the hole which render further operations impractical, or (C) any other reason not within ORION’s control, the following shall apply:

 

(i)                                          If such abandoned well was the first Commitment Well that failed to meet the Qualifying Criteria, such abandoned well shall not count as one of EPC’s obligatory Commitment Wells under this Agreement, the number of Commitment Wells required under this Agreement shall not be reduced by the attempted drilling of such abandoned well and EPC shall be obligated to participate in a Substitute Well for such abandoned well (which Substitute Well shall count as one of EPC’s obligatory Commitment Wells).

 

7

 

(ii)           To the extent EPC funds its Proportionate Share (proportionately reduced, if applicable, to its working interest in a Drilling Unit) and Carry Share of Well Costs, whether for a completed Commitment Well, a failed (i.e., plugged and abandoned) Commitment Well, an abandoned well under this Section IV(b) or a Substitute Well proposed by ORION pursuant to this Section IV, such well shall be treated as a Carry Well and such expenditures shall apply, dollar for dollar, against the Carry Cap; in each case, for purposes of Section V below.

 

(c)                   Payment of Well Costs for Commitment Wells. ORION shall require prepayment of Drilling and Completion Costs and Fracing Costs for each of the Commitment Wells to be drilled pursuant to this Agreement, payable by EPC as follows:

 

(i)            On the date hereof, ORION will deliver an invoice to EPC for estimated Drilling and Completion Costs applicable to the first Commitment Well (Hercyk SWD #1-31) (based upon the AFE attached hereto as a part of Exhibit “E-1”) and EPC shall pay its Proportionate Share and Carry Share of such Drilling and Completion Costs contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement;

 

(ii)           With respect to the second Commitment Well (Sneath #1-24H), (A) EPC shall pay on the date hereof its Proportionate Share (proportionately reduced, if applicable, to its working interest in the applicable Drilling Unit) and Carry Share of ten percent (10%) of the Drilling and Completion Costs (based upon the applicable AFE attached hereto as a part of Exhibit “E-2”) for such second Commitment Well, and (B) ORION shall deliver to EPC an invoice for the portion of the Drilling and Completion Costs (based upon the applicable AFE) not paid under clause (A) above no earlier than twenty (20) Business Days prior to the date the drilling rig is scheduled to be moved onto the well location for the second Commitment Well and EPC shall pay its Proportionate Share (proportionately reduced, if applicable, to its working interest in the applicable Drilling Unit) and Carry Share of such Drilling and Completion Costs within ten (10) Business Days of EPC’s receipt from ORION of such invoice;

 

(iii)          With respect to the third Commitment Well (Hendrickson Trust #1-1H), (A) EPC shall pay on the date hereof its Proportionate Share (proportionately reduced, if applicable, to its working interest in the applicable Drilling Unit) and Carry Share of fifteen percent (15%) of the Drilling and Completion Costs (based upon the applicable AFE attached hereto as a part of Exhibit “E-3”) for such third Commitment Well, and (B) ORION shall deliver to EPC an invoice for the portion of the Drilling and Completion Costs (based upon the applicable AFE) not paid under clause (A) above no earlier than twenty (20) Business Days prior to the date the drilling rig is scheduled to be moved onto the well location for the third Commitment Well and EPC shall pay its Proportionate Share (proportionately reduced, if applicable, to its working interest in the applicable Drilling Unit) and Carry Share of such Drilling and Completion Costs within ten (10) Business Days of EPC’s receipt from ORION of such invoice;

 

(iv)          Should the Substitute Well prove necessary, ORION will deliver to EPC an AFE for such Substitute Well, whereupon (A) EPC shall pay within fifteen (15) days of its receipt of such AFE its Proportionate Share (proportionately reduced, if applicable, to its working interest in the applicable Drilling Unit) and Carry Share of ten percent (10%) of the

 

8

 

Drilling and Completion Costs for such Substitute Well (based upon such AFE), and (B) ORION shall thereafter deliver to EPC an invoice for the portion of the Drilling and Completion Costs (based upon such AFE) not paid under clause (A) no earlier than twenty (20) Business Days prior to the date the drilling rig is scheduled to be moved onto the well location for the Substitute Well and EPC shall pay its Proportionate Share (proportionately reduced, if applicable, to its working interest in the applicable Drilling Unit) and Carry Share of the balance of such Drilling and Completion Costs within ten (10) Business Days of EPC’s receipt from ORION of such invoice;

 

(v)           ORION shall separately invoice EPC for Fracing Costs applicable to each Commitment Well other than the Hercyk SWD #1-31. ORION’s invoice shall be tendered to EPC no earlier than thirty (30) days prior to the date fracing operations are scheduled to commence and EPC shall then have ten (10) days after receipt of invoice within which to pay its Proportionate Share (proportionately reduced, if applicable, to its working interest in the applicable Drilling Unit) and Carry Share of the invoiced Fracing Costs; and

 

(vi)          Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section IV(c) to the contrary, EPC’s obligation to pay its Carry Share of invoiced Drilling and Completion Costs, Fracing Costs and/or other Well Costs is expressly subject to the Carry Cap and EPC’s rights under Section V(b) below; the intent being that EPC shall fund only its Proportionate Share (and not its Carry Share), proportionately reduced, if applicable, to its working interest in the applicable Drilling Unit, of Drilling and Completion Costs, Fracing Costs and/or other Well Costs to the extent invoiced amounts exceed the Carry Cap or EPC exercises its right to satisfy its carry obligations under this Agreement by paying ORION the balance of the Carry Cap pursuant to Section V(b).

 

(d)           Failure to Pay. If EPC fails to pay any invoice from ORION pursuant to Section IV(c) for the prepayment of costs with respect to a Commitment Well by the date such prepayment is due, and such failure to pay is not cured within ten (10) Business Days of EPC’s receipt of a written notice from ORION of such failure to pay, then EPC shall be considered in breach of its obligations under this Agreement. In have event, at ORION’s option, in lieu of all other remedies available to ORION, (i) EPC shall have no rights in the applicable Commitment Well, (ii) all rights of EPC in this Agreement and in the Project shall terminate, and (iii) except as hereinafter provided in this Section rv(d), all of EPC’s right, title and interest in the Initial Interests shall automatically be relinquished and re-vested in ORION and EPC shall reassign to ORION all of its right, title and interest in the Initial Interests under this Agreement, free of all lease burdens, overriding royalties, payments out of production or any other encumbrances created by, through or under EPC but not otherwise; provided, however, that EPC shall retain all right, title and interest in (A) any Commitment Well drilled for which EPC has timely and fully paid all properly submitted invoices, and (B) the associated acreage assigned to EPC in the applicable Governmental Section for any such timely and fully paid for Commitment Well.

 

V. CARRY WELLS

 

(a)           Carried Interest. EPC agrees that the Commitment Wells and next ensuing Subsequent Wells that are either saltwater disposal wells or wells targeting the Mississippian Formation (as set forth in the applicable AFE) proposed and drilled under this Agreement while

 

9

 

any balance remains under the Carry Cap (each a “Carry Well”), shall be subject to an absolute obligation of EPC (subject, however, to Section XIII) to pay, on behalf of ORION, in addition to EPC’s Proportionate Share due hereunder (if applicable), the lesser of (“Carry Share”) (i) an undivided 1/8 of the 8/8ths working interest, or (ii) such amount, if any, that would not reduce ORION’s proportionate working interest or cost share to less than ten percent (10%) of 8/8ths, of all Well Costs incurred in connection with each Carry Well until the aggregate of all Well Costs incurred by EPC and attributable to the Carry Share has equaled $2,216,565.00 (“Carry Cap”). For the avoidance of doubt, as an example of the application of the foregoing: (i) if the PARTIES own a combined 100% of the working interests in a Drilling Unit, for each Carry Well EPC shall pay (subject to the Carry Cap) 57.5% of all Well Costs and ORION shall pay (subject to the Carry Cap) 42.5% of all Wells Costs, but each PARTY shall receive its Proportionate Share of the revenues attributable to each such Carry Well; (ii) if the PARTIES own a combined 60% of the working interests in a Drilling Unit, for each Carry Well EPC shall pay (subject to the Carry Cap) 39.5% of all Well Costs and ORION shall pay (subject to the Carry Cap) 20.5% of all Well Costs, but each PARTY shall receive its Proportionate Share (proportionately reduced, if applicable, to its working interest in the Drilling Unit) of the revenues attributable to each such Carry Well, and (iii) if the PARTIES own a combined 30% of the working interests in a Drilling Unit, for each Carry Well EPC shall pay (subject to the Carry Cap) 20% of all Well Costs and ORION shall pay (subject to the Carry Cap) 10% of all Well Costs, but each PARTY shall receive its Proportionate Share (proportionately reduced, if applicable, to its working interest in the Drilling Unit) of the revenues attributable to each such Carry Well.

 

(b)           Carry Well Limitations. ORION may not propose more than one (1) Carry Well targeting the Mississippian Formation per Governmental Section prior to April 1, 2013 without EPC’s consent so long as any balance remains under the Carry Cap.

 

(c)           Election by EPC to Prepay Carry. At any time prior to the election required to be made under Section XIII, EPC has the sole right to elect to tender to ORION the remaining balance owed on the Carry Cap in lieu of treating any ensuing well(s) as a Carry Well(s). In such event, upon receipt by ORION of EPC’s payment of the remaining balance of the Carry Cap, all ensuing wells shall be Subsequent Wells subject to the provisions of Section VI below and shall not be Carry Wells.

 

(d)           Successor Obligations. EPC’s obligations with respect to each Carry Well shall be a covenant running with the land and shall burden and bind all permitted assignees of EPC under this Agreement and the properties subject hereto.

 

VI. SUBSEQUENT WELLS

 

(a)           Well Proposals. After all of the Commitment Wells are drilled, completed and, if applicable, producing, or abandoned without being completed, ORION will continue to propose additional wells within the AMI (each a “Subsequent Well”) (i) with no more than one producer and one salt water disposal well to be proposed at any one time, and (ii) during the term of this Agreement, with no more than a total of fourteen (14) wells (which shall include the Commitment Wells and other salt water disposal wells, as applicable) proposed within a twelve (12) month period; provided that the limitations of clauses (i) and (ii) above may be waived by the written consent of the PARTIES. Should ORION fail to propose Subsequent Wells at a pace

 

10

 

no fewer than three (3) wells per six (6) month period (beginning on the date hereof), EPC may propose Subsequent Wells thereafter and shall further have the right to operate each such Subsequent Well proposed by it pursuant to this sentence if ORION elects not to participate in and operate such Subsequent Well. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if ORION is unable, in whole or in part, to meet the obligations under this Agreement for the spudding (as applicable) and/or drilling of the Commitment Wells or any Subsequent Well due to Force Majeure, the obligations shall be suspended during, but no longer than, the continuance of the Force Majeure event. ORION shall remedy such Force Majeure event with all reasonable dispatch. All proposals for Subsequent Wells shall be in accordance with the terms of the applicable Operating Agreement under Section X below; provided, however, that regardless of whether a Subsequent Well is proposed by ORION or EPC, each PARTY shall have thirty (30) days from receipt of the proposal within which to make its election whether or not it will participate in the drilling of the Subsequent Well, with failure to respond being deemed an election to not participate. During the term of this Agreement, ORION shall not have more than one drilling rig operating within the AMI, unless consented to in writing by EPC; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, ORION may have a second drilling rig operating within the AMI for no more than forty-five (45) days each calendar year.

 

(b)           Participation Elections in Carry Wells.

 

(i)         Notwithstanding the provisions of the applicable Operating Agreement entered into or governing pursuant to Section X below, if a PARTY should elect not to participate in an initial Subsequent Well drilled in a Drilling Unit that is also a Carry Well, such Drilling Unit to be identified by Operator in its AFE for such Carry Well to be drilled in any Drilling Unit, such PARTY shall forfeit all of its interest in the Drilling Unit; provided that such Carry Well is commenced no later than ninety (90) days after expiration of the thirty (30) day notice period. If the Carry Well is not commenced within such ninety (90) day period and if any PARTY still desires to drill the Carry Well, written notice proposing the Carry Well must be resubmitted to the PARTIES in accordance herewith as if no prior proposal had been made. Any PARTY electing not to participate in a Carry Well in a Drilling Unit shall assign to the PARTY who elected to participate all of such non-participating PARTY’s interest in the designated Drilling Unit, free of all lease burdens, overriding royalties, payments out of production or any other encumbrances created by, through or under the non-participating PARTY but not otherwise, within thirty (30) days following the date the Carry Well is completed or plugged and abandoned, subject to the provisions of the preceding two sentences.

 

(ii)        If a PARTY elects to participate in the drilling of an initial Subsequent Well drilled in a Drilling Unit that is also a Carry Well, then that PARTY shall have the elections provided for in the governing Operating Agreement on all further Subsequent Wells within that Drilling Unit.

 

(c)          Participation Elections in Subsequent Wells other than Carry Wells.

 

(i)                 Notwithstanding the provisions of the applicable Operating Agreement entered into or governing pursuant to Section X below, if a PARTY should elect not to participate in a Subsequent Well that is the initial Subsequent Well (but not a Carry Well) drilled in a Drilling Unit (a “Post-Carry Well”), such Drilling Unit to be identified by Operator

 

11

 

in its AFE for the Post-Carry Well to be drilled in any Drilling Unit, such PARTY shall farmout and assign to the participating PARTY, and the participating PARTY shall have the right to receive, all of such non-participating PARTY’s interest in the objective formation within the designated Drilling Unit and all rights in, to and within the wellbore (and any hydrocarbons produced therefrom) as to the objective formation and any other formation from the surface of the earth to the top of the objective formation; provided, however, that such farmout of a nonparticipating PARTY’s interest in the designated Drilling Unit shall be (A) on the terms of the election provided for in the applicable OCC pooling order for a leased party in the applicable Drilling Unit, or (B) if no OCC pooling order applies to the applicable Drilling Unit, the nonparticipating PARTY shall be entitled to retain an undivided five percent (5%) overriding royalty interest, proportionately reduced, in the Drilling Unit insofar, and only insofar, as to the lands and formations farmed out under this Section VI(c); and, in either case, an appropriate assignment, free of all lease burdens, overriding royalties, payments out of production or any other encumbrances (except for any overriding royalty interest owed the non-participating PARTY under this Section VI(c)) created by, through or under the non-participating PARTY but not otherwise, shall be executed and delivered by the non-participating PARTY to the participating PARTY.

 

(ii)                   If a PARTY elects to participate in the drilling of a Post-Carry Well in a Drilling Unit, then that PARTY shall have the elections provided for in the governing Operating Agreement on all further Subsequent Wells within that Drilling Unit.

 

(d)           Farmout Relinquishments. Notwithstanding any provisions of the Operating Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall a PARTY which becomes a non-consenting party as to the drilling of any well which under, a farmout is required to be drilled in order to earn a leasehold assignment under such farmout be entitled to participate in or acquire any leases earned if such leasehold assignment would not have been earned if such well were not drilled.

 

(e)           Third-Party Proposals. If a third party proposes the drilling of a well on property within the AMI in which both ORION and EPC own a leasehold interest pursuant to this Agreement, or on property pooled or unitized therewith, and the PARTIES are bound by an operating agreement or other agreement to make an election to participate in the drilling of such well or the proposal is governed by a forced pooling order of the OCC, ORION (or a successor operator) shall immediately give EPC written notice of such proposal or pooling order, together with a copy of the well proposal or pooling order. Each PARTY shall give the other PARTY written notice of whether it will participate in the third-party proposal at least ten (10) days prior to the date elections are due under the applicable OCC pooling order, operating agreement or other agreement under which the third party proposal is made.

 

(i)            If both PARTIES elect to participate, then notice to that effect shall be given by each PARTY to the third party.

 

(ii)           If both PARTIES elect not to participate, then notice to that effect shall be given by each PARTY to the third party, and each such PARTY shall then be governed by the penalty or non-consent provisions of the applicable pooling order, operating agreement or

 

12

 

other agreement under which the third party proposal was made and not by the penalty provisions of this Agreement or the Operating Agreement.

 

(iii) If either PARTY elects not to participate and the other PARTY elects to participate, then, subject to and in accordance with Sections VI(b) and VI(c) above, such non-participating PARTY shall farmout and/or assign, as applicable, to the participating PARTY, and the participating PARTY shall have the right (A) to receive, the interests of the non-participating PARTY in the proposed operation and any other rights or interests, if any, of the non-participating PARTY in the applicable Drilling Unit for a Carry Well pursuant to Section VI(b) or in the objective formation and wellbore of a Post-Carry Well pursuant to Section VI(c), as applicable, and (B) to participate in the proposed operation with the interest of the nonparticipating PARTY, by electing to do so within five (5) days, inclusive of Saturdays, Sundays and legal holidays, after receipt of the election of the PARTY electing not to participate; provided, however, that such farmout and/or assignment of such non-participating PARTY’s interest in (X) a Drilling Unit pursuant to Section VI(b) or the objective formation and wellbore pursuant to Section VI(c) shall be on the terms and conditions set forth in Sections VI(b) and VI(c) above, as applicable, and (Y) the wellbore (and all hydrocarbons produced therefrom) of a well subject to the operation proposed by such third party that is not governed by either Section VI(b) or Section VI(c) shall be on the terms of the election provided for in the applicable OCC pooling order for a leased party in the applicable Drilling Unit, and an appropriate assignment, free of all lease burdens, overriding royalties, payments out of production or any other encumbrances (other than overriding royalty interests, if any, to which the non-participating PARTY is entitled under the applicable OCC order) created by,. through or under the nonparticipating PARTY but not otherwise, shall be promptly executed and delivered by the nonparticipating PARTY to the participating PARTY so as to effectuate participation by the participating PARTY with the interest of the non-participating PARTY. Additionally, the nonparticipating PARTY agrees to execute such other documents and instruments reasonably necessary to effectuate participation by the participating PARTY with the interest of the nonparticipating PARTY. If the participating PARTY elects not to receive the interest of the nonparticipating PARTY pursuant to this Section VI(e), the non-participating PARTY shall tender to the third party its notice of non-participation and the non-participating PARTY shall be subject to and governed by the penalty or non-consent provisions of the applicable OCC pooling order, operating agreement or other agreement under which the third party well proposal was made (and not the penalty provisions of this Agreement or the Operating Agreement).

 

(f)            AFEs as Estimates. AFEs prepared by either PARTY and submitted to the other PARTY, with respect to any well operation proposed under this Agreement or the applicable Operating Agreement, are good faith estimates only of the costs to be incurred with respect to the particular well operation and the cost categories identified on the AFE. An AFE shall not serve to limit a PARTY’s obligation to pay its proportionate share of Well Costs with respect to any well operation in which such PARTY has elected to participate or in which EPC is obligated to participate.

 

VII. PREPAYMENT OF WELL COSTS FOR SUBSEQUENT WELLS

 

(a)           Prepayment Terms. ORION shall require prepayment of estimated costs for any Subsequent Well drilled pursuant to this Agreement as follows:

 

13

 

(i)            With respect to any Subsequent Well proposal pursuant to Section VI of this Agreement or the applicable Operating Agreement, (A) upon and contemporaneously with EPC’s election to participate in the drilling of such well, EPC shall pay (I) its Proportionate Share (proportionately reduced, if applicable, to its working interest in the applicable Drilling Unit), and (II) if applicable, its Carry Share, of ten percent (10%) of the Drilling and Completion Costs (based upon the applicable AFE) for such well, and (B) ORION shall deliver to EPC an invoice for the portion of the Drilling and Completion Costs (based upon the applicable AFE) not paid under clause (A) above no earlier than twenty (20) Business Days prior to the date the drilling rig is scheduled to be moved onto the well location for such well and EPC shall pay its Proportionate Share (proportionately reduced, if applicable, to its working interest in the applicable Drilling Unit) and, if applicable, its Carry Share of such Drilling and Completion Costs within ten (10) Business Days of EPC’s receipt from ORION of such invoice.

 

(ii)           ORION shall submit to EPC, for each Subsequent Well, a separate invoice for Fracing Costs (based upon the applicable AFE and proportionately reduced, if applicable, to EPC’s working interest in the applicable Drilling Unit), such invoice to be tendered to EPC no earlier than thirty (30) days prior to the date fracing operations are to commence with respect to the applicable Subsequent Well. Upon receipt of such invoice, EPC shall have ten (10) days following receipt of such invoice to pay ORION the invoiced amount.

 

(iii)          Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or the applicable Operating Agreement to the contrary, the PARTIES agree that ORION shall, at no time during the term of this Agreement, have outstanding pursuant to the prepayments required under Sections VII(a)(i) and VII(a)(ii) more than (I) two (2) invoices that are not yet due and payable for Drilling and Completion Costs in connection with all active AFEs, and (II) three (3) invoices that are not yet due and payable for Fracing Costs in connection with all active AFEs.

 

(b)           Failure to Pay. If EPC fails to pay any invoice from ORION pursuant to Section VII(a) for the prepayment of costs with respect to a Carry Well by the date such prepayment is due, and such failure to pay is not cured within ten (10) Business Days of EPC’s receipt of a written notice from ORION of such failure to pay, then EPC shall be treated as if it elected not to participate in such Carry Well and will be subject to the non-participation penalties prescribed in Section VI(b) above. If EPC fails to pay any invoice from ORION pursuant to Section VII(a) for the prepayment of costs with respect to a Subsequent Well that is not a Carry Well by the date such prepayment is due, and such failure to pay is not cured within ten (10) Business Days of EPC’s receipt of a written notice from ORION of such failure to pay, EPC’s failure to pay shall be deemed as an election not to participate in such Subsequent Well and EPC shall be subject to the non-participation penalties prescribed in Section VI(c) above. For the avoidance of doubt, at no time shall EPC forfeit any interest in any well drilled under this Agreement, and the associated acreage in the applicable Government Section for such well, for which EPC has timely and fully paid all properly submitted invoices.

 

VIII. THIRD PARTY OPERATED WELLS

 

EPC and ORION shall designate ORION as operator for each Drilling Unit (“Operator”) and EPC agrees to support ORION as Operator should ORION be challenged for operations by a third party in any Drilling Unit; provided, however, that, in each case, ORION and/or its

 

14

 

Affiliates owns a working interest in the applicable well drilled or to be drilled in such Drilling Unit for which ORION would be the Operator. EPC’s support for ORION as Operator, if challenged for operations by a third party, may be suspended during the period in which EPC has taken action, and followed procedures, to remove ORION as Operator in accordance with the applicable Operating Agreement. If ORION and/or one of its Affiliates does not own a working interest in a well drilled or to be drilled in a Drilling Unit, then (if requested by EPC) ORION will support EPC as Operator of such well or, if EPC does not wish to serve as Operator, the Operator of such well shall be determined in accordance with the applicable Operating Agreement.

 

IX.          MANAGEMENT FEE

 

As more fully set forth in Section II above, ORION will charge EPC an AMI Management Fee on unaffiliated third party Acquisition Costs incurred by ORION for Drilling Rights acquired under Section II, but subject to the limitations of Section 11(a)(ii). In addition, ORION will charge a Management Fee of one percent (1%) (“Drilling Management Fee”) on EPC’s Proportionate Share of all Well Costs incurred by ORION in connection with each Commitment Well and each Subsequent Well in which EPC participates under this Agreement. These charges will be invoiced in the monthly JIB as to all such Acquisition Costs pursuant to Section II(a) and on the pre-bill as to all Well Costs for each Commitment Well and Subsequent Well drilled pursuant to this Agreement; provided that, the Drilling Management Fee shall be charged only on Well Costs up to the amount evidenced by ORION’s initial AFE for any Commitment Well or Subsequent Well and ORION will not charge the Drilling Management Fee on any cost overruns (i.e. costs in excess of original estimates for or costs in excess of original AFEs for the Commitment Wells and each Subsequent Well). Neither the AMI Management Fee nor the Drilling Management Fee is assignable and ORION shall not charge the Drilling Management Fee on any wells in which it is not the Operator.

 

X.            OPERATING AGREEMENT

 

(a)           Operating Agreements. All operations for the drilling, completing and equipping of the Commitment Wells, Carry Wells and other Subsequent Wells drilled, or proposed to be drilled, within the AMI shall be governed by the operating agreement substantially identical to the operating agreement attached hereto as Exhibit “D” (“Operating Agreement”). A separate Operating Agreement shall be prepared and executed for the Drilling Unit attributable to each Commitment Well and, following a proposal for an initial Subsequent Well, the Drilling Unit for such initial Subsequent Well, and in each such case shall supersede the terms and conditions of the Operating Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit “D”. In the event of a conflict between this Agreement and the governing Operating Agreement, the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall control. Upon the end of the term of this Agreement, the Operating Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit “D”, shall remain in full force and effect as to all joint interests owned by the PARTIES within the AMI not subject to an Operating Agreement for a specific Drilling Unit and the provisions of this Section X shall survive the end of the term of this Agreement; provided, however, that, with respect to each initial well proposed to be drilled in a newly designated Drilling Unit after the term of this Agreement, the Operating Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit “D” shall, for all purposes, automatically be treated as severally and separately applicable to each such Drilling Unit.

 

15

 

(b)           Standard of Care. ORION shall conduct its activities, as Operator under this Agreement, as a reasonable, prudent operator, in a good and workmanlike manner, with due diligence and dispatch, in accordance with good oilfield practice, and in compliance with applicable law and regulation, but in no event shall it have any liability as Operator to EPC for losses sustained or liabilities incurred except such as may result from gross negligence or willful misconduct.

 

(c)           Insurance. ORION, for the benefit of the PARTIES, will carry or provide insurance for all operations conducted or to be conducted by it hereunder in the amounts set forth in the Operating Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit “D”. The cost and expense of such insurance shall be invoiced by ORION to the joint account of all working interest owners within the Drilling Unit, in accordance with their respective working interest shares.

 

(d)           Resignation. Should ORION resign or transfer its duties as Operator under any Operating Agreement prior to the drilling and completion, or plugging and abandonment (if applicable) of the Commitment Wells, all unaccrued portions of the Carry Cap as of the date of ORION’s resignation shall automatically expire and EPC shall have no further obligation to bear the Carry Share of any Well Costs thereafter accruing under this Agreement.

 

XI.              SEISMIC ELECTIONS

 

ORION may, from time to time, propose the acquisition of Seismic Data within the AMI, whether by conducting its own seismic shoot, the acquisition of existing Seismic Data or otherwise (each a “Seismic Acquisition”). Each proposal shall include reasonably necessary details regarding a proposed Seismic Acquisition and an invoice for the associated Seismic Cost. EPC shall have thirty (30) days from receipt of a proposal within which to make its election whether or not it will participate in the proposed Seismic Acquisition, with failure to respond being deemed an election to not participate. Upon and contemporaneously with EPC’s election to participate in a Seismic Acquisition, EPC shall pay its Proportionate Share of all Seismic Costs (proportionately reduced, however, to the extent, if at all, any such Seismic Costs are to be borne by third parties sharing in the Seismic Acquisition who are not parties to this Agreement) and shall thereupon have immediate rights in and to such Seismic Data; provided, however, if a Carry Well is thereafter drilled within a Drilling Unit to which such Seismic Data is applicable, EPC shall also pay its Carry Share (to the extent a balance remains on the Carry Cap) of such Seismic Costs, as set forth in the applicable AFE for such Carry Well and in accordance with the timing set forth in Section VII. If EPC elects or is deemed to have elected not to participate in a Seismic Acquisition, then EPC shall have no rights or access to such Seismic Data; provided, however, that, should ORION propose a well under this Agreement that is based, in part, upon any Seismic Data in which EPC elected, or was deemed to have elected, not to participate, then ORION shall provide EPC such Seismic Data that is pertinent to such proposed well and ORION shall charge EPC its proportionate share of such Seismic Data.

 

XII.            DISPOSAL WELLS AND FACILITIES

 

(a)           Initial SWD Well. The PARTIES shall be the owners, in proportion to each’s Proportionate Share, of the Hercyk SWD #1-31 disposal well (“Initial SWD Well”). ORION, as operator of the Initial SWD Well, shall charge each party disposing of saltwater in

 

16

 

the Initial SWD Well, including the PARTIES, a fee of $0.50 per barrel of saltwater disposed (as such fee may be re-determined from time to time by the operator hereunder, in its sole discretion, consistent with then current market rates in Kay County, Oklahoma, the “SWD Fee”). Each PARTY shall receive its Proportionate Share of all fees (including the SWD Fee), charges and other benefits from the Initial SWD Well as the owner of an undivided interest therein. Further, each PARTY shall pay its Proportionate Share of all operating, maintenance and capital costs for the Initial SWD Well. The SWD Fee charged to each party disposing of saltwater in the Initial SWD Well will, if applicable, be based upon each disposing party’s working interest share in a producing well from which such saltwater was generated multiplied by the number of barrels of saltwater from such producing well disposed of in the Initial SWD Well multiplied by the SWD Fee.

 

(b)           Subsequent SWD Wells. Subsequent to the drilling of the Initial SWD Well, ORION may propose the drilling of additional saltwater disposal wells and related saltwater disposal infrastructure as may, from time to time, be required (whether on lands within or outside the AMI) to dispose of saltwater from wells producing oil, gas or other hydrocarbons from within the AMI (“Additional SWD Facilities”). For any such proposal, ORION shall submit to EPC a written notice for the proposed drilling of such saltwater disposal well (“SWD Well Proposal Notice”) containing (i) the legal description of the surface location for the proposed disposal well, (ii) the proposed disposal formation, (iii) the proposed disposal capacity for the new disposal well, and (iv) an AFE showing the completed cost for the drilling of the proposed disposal well and the related disposal infrastructure required to connect wells to the new disposal well. For the avoidance of doubt, the PARTIES intend that EPC shall have the right to participate in any such Additional SWD Facilities proposed by ORION during the term of this Agreement. EPC shall have thirty (30) days, inclusive of Saturdays, Sundays and legal holidays, from receipt of such SWD Well Proposal Notice within which to elect whether to participate in such proposed Additional SWD Facilities in accordance with the SWD Well Proposal Notice, and failure to respond within said period shall be deemed an election not to participate. If EPC elects to participate in the Additional SWD Facilities, EPC shall pay its Proportionate Share (reduced proportionately to the aggregate working interest of the PARTIES in such Additional SWD Facilities) and, if applicable, its Carry Share of all costs incurred in connection with the drilling and completion of such Additional SWD Facilities. By such participation, EPC shall be the owner of an undivided interest in such Additional SWD Facilities equal to its Proportionate Share, reduced proportionately to the aggregate working interest of the PARTIES in such Additional SWD Facilities, and shall be (i) entitled to its Proportionate Share (reduced proportionately to the aggregate working interest of the PARTIES in such Additional SWD Facilities) of all fees (including SWD Fees), charges and other benefits from such Additional SWD Facilities and (ii) responsible for its Proportionate Share (reduced proportionately to the aggregate working interest of the PARTIES in such Additional SWD Facilities) of all operating, maintenance and capital costs for such Additional SWD Facilities. If EPC elects or is deemed to have elected not to participate in any such Additional SWD Facilities proposed by ORION hereunder, EPC shall have no right, title or interest in such Additional SWD Facilities and shall not be entitled to the fees (including SWD Fees), charges and other benefits received by the owners thereof for access to and use of such Additional SWD Facilities. EPC may, notwithstanding its non-participation in any such Additional SWD Facilities drilled under the terms of this Agreement, utilize such Additional SWD Facilities drilled hereunder in exchange for payment of $0.50 per barrel of saltwater disposed, capacity permitting; the intent

 

17

 

being that ORION may not refuse EPC the right to utilize any such Additional SWD Facilities solely by reason of EPC’s non-participation in such Additional SWD Facilities.

 

(c)           Disposal Fee. ORION, as operator of each Additional SWD Facilities proposed hereunder, shall charge each party disposing of saltwater in each such Additional SWD Facilities well drilled hereunder, including the PARTIES (but subject to the $0.50 per barrel saltwater disposal fee applicable to EPC pursuant to Section XII(b) above), the SWD Fee. The SWD Fee charged to each party disposing of saltwater in any Additional SWD Facilities shall be, if applicable, based upon each disposing party’s working interest share in a producing well from which such saltwater was generated multiplied by the number of barrels of saltwater from such producing well disposed of in such Additional SWD Facilities multiplied by the SWD Fee. ORION, as operator, shall proportionately distribute the fees and charges received for access to and use of each such Additional SWD Facilities to the parties participating in such Additional SWD Facilities.

 

(d)           No Implication of Outside Ownership. Nothing in this Section XII shall imply any obligation on the PARTIES to allow other producers to participate in the ownership of the Initial SWD Well or any Additional SWD Facilities, it being contemplated that the Initial SWD Well and Additional SWD Facilities will be owned solely by the PARTIES (subject to Section XII(b)); provided, however, the PARTIES may permit other producers owning interests in producing oil, gas or other hydrocarbon wells located within the AMI to participate in the ownership of the Initial SWD Well and/or Additional SWD Facilities to the extent required by law to do so or to the extent the PARTIES believe it will be beneficial to the PARTIES to permit such ownership.

 

XIII. ELECTION TO CONTINUE PROJECT

 

(a)           EPC Election. Not later than three (3) Business Days after April 17, 2013, ORION shall give EPC written notice as to the balance, if any, remaining under the Carry Cap. Upon receipt of such written notice from ORION, EPC shall have ten (10) Business Days within which to elect, by giving written notice to ORION, either (i) to pay ORION the remaining balance under the Carry Cap (such amount, the “Continuation Payment”), or (ii) to opt out of, forfeit and reassign an undivided interest in and to a portion of the Initial Interests equal to (A) the remaining balance under the Carry Cap divided by $1,000, divided by (B) the aggregate net acres comprising the Initial Interests (excluding, however, the aggregate net acres subtracted from the net acres comprising the Initial Interests pursuant to clauses (X) and (Y) in the next proviso below); provided, however, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section XIII shall have no effect on any Drilling Rights or other interests in this Agreement or the AMI that EPC has already earned or forfeited under the other provisions of this Agreement, the intent of the PARTIES being that (X) all rights, interests and acreage previously assigned to EPC within the applicable Drilling Units for each Commitment Well and Carry Well for which EPC has timely paid all properly submitted invoices shall remain in EPC and shall not be subject to forfeiture under this Section XIII(a), and (Y) all previously forfeited rights, interests and acreage under this Agreement, if any, shall remain forfeited no matter what EPC elects under this Section XIII(a). For the avoidance of doubt, as an example of the application of Section XIII(a)(ii) above, if on April 17, 2013, $526,500 remains under the Carry Cap, the aggregate net acres comprising the Initial Interests assigned to EPC under the Purchase Agreement was 5,265,

 

18

 

but, after deducting rights, interests and acreage pursuant to clauses (X) and (Y) above, EPC’s net acres under this Agreement are only 3,265, and EPC elects the option under Section XIII(a)(ii) above, EPC shall forfeit and reassign to ORION an undivided 16.1% interest in and to the leases, properties, rights and interests comprising such 3,265 net acres. Further, for the avoidance of doubt, at no time or for any reason shall EPC forfeit any interest in any wells in which it has participated and has timely and fully paid all properly submitted invoices. Failure of EPC to provide written notice of its election on the applicable date shall be deemed an election to forfeit and reassign an undivided interest in and to the Initial Interests pursuant to Section XIII(a)(ii) above. Should EPC elect to make the Continuation Payment, such payment shall be made contemporaneously with such election.

 

(b)           Effect of Opting Out. In the event EPC makes an election pursuant to Section XIII(a)(ii) to opt-out of an undivided interest in the Initial Interests, (i) EPC’s rights and interests in such portion of the Initial Interests shall automatically be relinquished to and re-vested in ORION; (ii) EPC shall have no obligation to pay the Continuation Payment provided for in Section XIII(a); (iii) EPC shall have no further rights or interests in and to such undivided interest in the Initial Interests relinquished to and re-vested in ORION; (iv) EPC shall execute and deliver, within thirty (30) days of such election, a recordable re-assignment of such relinquished Initial Interests to ORION, free of all lease burdens, overriding royalties, payments out of production or any other encumbrances created by, through or under EPC but not otherwise; and (v) this Agreement shall terminate for all purposes as to the portion of the Initial Interests forfeited pursuant to Section XIII(a)(ii) but shall continue in full force and effect as to the remainder of the AMI as set forth in Section XVIII(k). In the event EPC makes an election pursuant to Section XIII(a)(i) above, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect for the remainder of its term without any modification.

 

(c)           Joint Negotiation. The PARTIES hereby acknowledge and agree that the election options provided for under Section XIII(a) have been negotiated for by the PARTIES and EPC acknowledges and agrees that neither of such election options under Section XIII(a) constitutes a penalty.

 

XIV. DELAY RENTAL AND SHUT-IN ROYALTY PAYMENTS

 

All of the Initial Interests as well as all other oil and gas leases and other Drilling Rights within the AMI and covered by this Agreement shall be administered and maintained by ORION. ORION shall pay all delay rentals, shut-in royalty, extension bonuses and all other similar amounts which may be required under the terms of such co-owned leases and Drilling Rights in order to maintain same in effect and shall submit evidence of each such payment to EPC upon request. EPC shall be obligated to reimburse ORION for its share of all such rental, shut-in royalty, extension bonuses and other similar payments based on their respective ownership in same. ORION shall not be liable to the co-owners of the oil and gas leases and Drilling Rights, however, if through mistake or oversight (but not gross negligence or willful misconduct), any rental or royalty or other similar payment is not paid or is erroneously paid.

XV. PROPRIETARY INFORMATION

 

(a)           Confidentiality Obligation. Except for disclosures to (1) employees, officers and directors of a PARTY, (2) employees, officers and directors of a PARTY’s Affiliates, (3) any professional consultant or agent retained by a PARTY for the purpose of evaluating the Proprietary Information, (4) any financial institutions or other lenders for financing purposes, (5) investors, potential investors or shareholders if a PARTY is a publicly traded company and applicable securities laws require such disclosure or such disclosure is made in connection with an investor or potential investor conference customary in the oil and gas industry, (6) representatives of a PARTY who need to know information for purposes of performing this Agreement, (7) accountants, (8) legal counsel and other advisors, or (9) in connection with any proposed merger, acquisition or divestiture transaction involving a PARTY, no Proprietary Information shall be distributed or disclosed to any third party without first obtaining a written undertaking of confidentiality from such third party. Proprietary Information shall be maintained confidential during the term of this Agreement and for a period of two (2) years thereafter.

 

(b)           Designation of Proprietary Information. It shall be the duty of a PARTY to identify as Proprietary Information, in writing, any of its information which is disclosed to the other PARTY and which is intended to be governed by the provisions of this Section XV. The identification shall be made at the time of disclosure or within reasonable proximity of disclosure.

 

(c)           Disclosure of Proprietary Information. In the event that any PARTY or its representatives are requested or required by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents in legal proceedings, subpoena, civil investigative demand or other similar process, to disclose any Proprietary Information, such PARTY shall provide the other PARTY that may claim the Proprietary Information with prompt written notice of any such request or requirement so that the PARTY that claims the Proprietary Information may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy. If a PARTY or its representatives are nonetheless legally compelled to disclose Proprietary Information, such PARTY or its representatives shall disclose only that portion of the Proprietary Information which it is legally required to disclose, provided that such PARTY will exercise its best reasonable efforts to preserve the confidentiality of the Proprietary Information, including, without limitation, by cooperating with the PARTY that claims the Proprietary Information to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded the Proprietary Information.

 

XVI. INDEMNITY

 

(a)           Each PARTY shall defend, indemnify and hold the other PARTY harmless from and against any and all claims, demands; costs, judgments and liabilities for damages or losses arising from such PARTY’s failure to comply with its express obligations under this Agreement.

 

(b)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in no event shall either PARTY be liable to the other under this Agreement for any consequential, exemplary, punitive, remote or speculative damages, including damages for loss of profit

 

20

 

(collectively, “Special Damages”); provided, however, that if any PARTY is held liable to any third party for any such Special Damages and the other PARTY is obligated hereunder to indemnify such PARTY so held liable for the matter that gave rise to such Special Damages, the indemnitor PARTY shall be liable for and obligated to reimburse such indemnified PARTY for the full amount of such Special Damages.

 

XVII.      NOTICES AND ADDRESSES OF THE PARTIES

21

 

representatives, and said personnel of each PARTY shall meet in person and make a good faith attempt to resolve or settle the matter. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS IT MAY HAVE TO DEMAND ANY WAY RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE RELATIONSHIPS OF THE PARTIES HERETO BE TRIED BY JURY. THIS WAIVER EXTENDS TO ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO DEMAND A TRIAL BY JURY ARISING FROM ANY SOURCE INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES OR ANY STATE THEREIN, COMMON LAW OR ANY APPLICABLE STATUTE OR REGULATIONS. EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVING ITS RIGHT TO DEMAND TRIAL BY JURY.

 

(d)           Each PARTY hereby elects to be excluded from the application of all of the provisions of Subchapter “K”, Chapter 1, Subtitle “A” of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (“Code”), as permitted and authorized by Section 761 of the Code and the Regulations promulgated thereunder. ORION (or any successor operator) is authorized and directed to execute on behalf of each PARTY such evidence of this election as may be required by the Secretary of the Treasury of the United States or the Federal Internal Revenue Service, including specifically, but not by way of limitation, all of the returns, statements and the data required by Treasury Regulation §1.761-2. Each PARTY agrees to execute and furnish such other evidence as may be necessary to evidence this election.

 

(e)           The PARTIES affirm, attest, and agree that the rights and liabilities of the PARTIES shall always be individual and several, not joint or collective, and that each PARTY shall be acting independently of the other. No fiduciary relationship, constructive trust, partnership, species of partnership, joint venture or mining partnership is intended or meant by this Agreement, and no act by any PARTY shall operate to create such relationship for any purpose whatsoever.

No waiver will be effective unless given in writing and signed on behalf of the PARTY making such waiver.

 

(h)           This Agreement may not be assigned in whole or in part by a PARTY (a “Transfer”) prior to the drilling and completion (or plugging and abandonment) of all of the Commitment Wells; provided, however, this Agreement may be assigned by a PARTY to any mortgagee or secured party of the assigning PARTY or to any purchaser at a judicial or non-judicial foreclosure or by conveyance in lieu of foreclosure, pursuant to any mortgage or security agreement granting a lien or security interest. Thereafter, this Agreement may not be Transferred by a PARTY without the express written consent of the other PARTY, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, this Agreement may be assigned by a

 

22

 

PARTY to any mortgagee or secured party of the assigning PARTY or to any purchaser at a judicial or non-judicial foreclosure or by conveyance in lieu of foreclosure, pursuant to any mortgage or security agreement granting a lien or security interest. No PARTY shall assign or otherwise transfer its interest in this Agreement unless the assignee or transferee assumes all of the obligations hereunder of the PARTY making such assignment or transfer that are applicable to the interests assigned. If any Transfer relates to all of the lands comprising the AMI but an undivided interest in less than all of a PARTY’s interest in such lands covered by this Agreement, then the rights of the transferor and the transferee to acquire an interest within the AMI from another PARTY herein shall be allocated between them in accordance with the relative interest transferred and the relative interest retained by a PARTY hereto, and each of the transferor and transferee may separately exercise the elections provided herein as to their respective undivided interests. If any Transfer of a PARTY’s interest in the properties covered by this Agreement relates to less than all of the lands comprising the AMI, then the transferee’s rights to acquire interests within the AMI shall be limited to the lands in which the transferee has acquired its interests, and if the transferee has acquired only an undivided interest in less than all of the transferor’s interest, then the proportionate allocation provisions of the preceding sentence shall apply to the lands to which the Transfer relates. The transferor shall retain rights to acquire interests within the AMI as to lands not involved in the Transfer or in which the transferor retained an undivided interest. In the event of a Transfer of all or part of a PARTY’s interest in all the lands subject to the AMI or as to any portion of the AMI, the transferee shall have the same obligations as those of its transferor to offer to each other PARTY hereto any interests within the AMI subsequently acquired by such transferee.

 

(i)            In the event of a conflict between this Agreement and the Operating Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit “D”, the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail.

 

(j)            Time shall be of the essence of this Agreement in all of its parts. This Agreement shall be binding on the PARTIES, their heirs, executors, administrators, personal representatives, trustees, successors and permitted assigns.

 

(k)           This Agreement shall remain in force and effect for a period of time ending on June 1, 2013.

CERTIFICATE OF NON-FOREIGN STATUS

 

IN COMPLIANCE WITH § 1445 OF THE
 INTERNAL REVENUE CODE

 

ORION EXPLORATION PARTNERS, LLC

 

Pursuant to § 1445 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), an individual, corporation, partnership, trust or estate must withhold tax with respect to certain transfers of property if the seller is a “foreign person,” as defined in the Code.
