in the Securities Act based in part upon Seller’s representations contained in this Agreement. Seller hereby further represents
and warrants as follows:

merits and risks of its investment in Buyer and has the capacity to protect its own interest. Seller must bear the economic risk
of this investment indefinitely unless the Shares are registered pursuant to the Securities Act, or an exemption from registration
is available. Seller understands that Buyer has no present intention of registering the Shares. Seller also understands that there

be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is
available. Seller has been advised or is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act as in effect
from time to time, which permits limited resale of shares purchased in a private placement subject to the satisfaction of certain
conditions, including, among other things: the availability of certain current public information about Buyer, the resale occurring
following the required holding period under Rule 144 and the number of shares being sold during any three-month period not exceeding
specified limitations.

DUE DILIGENCE

 

Section
7.1 Due Diligence Review By Buyer. Buyer shall have reasonable access to Seller’s records pertaining to
the Assets and may conduct, at its sole cost, such title examination or investigation, and other examinations and investigations,
as it may in its sole discretion choose to conduct with respect to the Assets in order to determine whether Defects (as below
defined) exist. Should, as a result of such examinations and investigations, or otherwise, one or more matters come to Buyer’s
attention which it believes in good faith would constitute a Defect, Buyer shall promptly, but no later than ten (10) days prior
to Closing (“Notice Deadline”), notify Seller in writing (a “Notice”) of any Defects.

 

Section
7.2 Nature of Defects. The term “Defect” as used in this Agreement shall mean the following;
provided, however, that Permitted Encumbrances shall not constitute Defects:

 

		(a)	Net Revenue Interest or Working Interest Variances. Seller’s ownership of the Assets
is such that, with respect to a Well or any of the Leases listed on Exhibit “A” hereto, it (A) entitles Seller
to receive a decimal share of the Hydrocarbons from all depths (or if depth limitations are noted on Exhibit “A”,
from the depths specified), as shown on Exhibit “A”, which is less than the decimal share set forth on Exhibit
“A” in connection with any such Wells or Lease identified as “Net Revenue Interest” on Exhibit
A or (B) causes Seller to be obligated to bear, throughout the productive life of such Well or Leases, a decimal share of the cost
of operation of any such Well or Leases greater than the decimal share set forth on Exhibit “A” in connection
with any such Well or Leases identified as “Working Interest” on Exhibit A.

 

		(b)	Liens. Seller’s ownership of an Asset is subject to a lien other than (A) a lien for
Taxes which are not yet delinquent or (B) a mechanic’s or materialmen’s lien (or other similar lien), or a lien under
an operating agreement or similar agreement, to the extent the same relates to expenses incurred which are not yet delinquent or
(C) liens which will be released at or before Closing.

 

		(c)	Imperfections in Title. Seller’s ownership of an Asset is subject to an imperfection
in title which, if asserted, would cause a Defect, as defined in subparagraph (a) above.

 

    	14

    	 

    

 

Section
7.3 Permitted Encumbrances. As used in this Agreement, the term “Permitted Encumbrance” means:

 

		(a)	lessor’s royalties, non-participating royalties, overriding royalties, and division orders and
the terms, conditions and restrictions of any Lease or Assumed Contract covering the Hydrocarbons, and similar burdens if the net
cumulative effect of such burdens does not operate to reduce the net revenue interest in any Asset to an amount less than the net
revenue interest set forth on Exhibit “A” or increase the working interest of any of the Assets from that set
forth in Exhibit “A” without a corresponding increase in the net revenue interest;

 

		(b)	subject to the provisions of Section 8.3 hereof, required nongovernmental third party consents
to assignments and similar agreements with respect to which prior to Closing (i) waivers or consents are obtained from the appropriate
parties, or (ii) the appropriate time period for asserting such rights has expired without an exercise of such rights;

 

		(c)	liens for taxes or assessments not yet due or delinquent;

 

		(d)	any mechanic’s or materialmen’s lien (or other similar lien), or liens under an operating
agreement or similar agreement, to the extent the liens relate to expenses incurred but not yet due or delinquent;

 

		(e)	all rights to consent by, required notices to, filings with, or other actions by Governmental Authorities
in connection with the sale or conveyance of oil and gas leases or interests therein, if the same are customarily obtained subsequent
to such sale or conveyance;

 

		(f)	easements, rights-of way, rights of use, servitudes, permits, surface leases and other rights in
respect of surface operations, provided they do not materially interfere with the operation or use of the Assets;

 

		(g)	defects, irregularities and deficiencies in title of or to any rights-of-way, rights of use, easements,
surface leases or other rights which in the aggregate do not materially impair the use of such rights-of-way, rights of use, easements,
surface leases or other rights for the purpose of which such rights will be held by Buyer and would not have a material adverse
effect on the operation or value of any of the Assets; and

 

		(h)	any lien, privilege or encumbrance covering the Assets to be released at or prior to Closing, which
Seller has disclosed on Schedule 7.3.

 

    	15

    	 

    

  

Section
7.4 Seller’s
Response to Notices; Failure to Respond. Seller shall have three (3) Business Days from
receipt of a Notice to respond to any Notice timely delivered by Buyer pursuant to this Article VII. Such response must
be in writing to be effective and may include an objection to the existence or amount of any claimed Defect or adjustment, or
an election to cure any claimed Defect. Failure to so respond by Seller shall constitute a waiver of any rights to cure or object
to Defects timely asserted by Buyer prior to the Notice Deadline. If, prior to Closing, Seller waives any rights to cure or object
to a Defect, the Purchase Price shall be adjusted by the amount of such Defect claimed by Buyer in its Notice. The Purchase Price
shall not be adjusted unless the total adjustment is greater than $10,000.00 and then only to the extent of the excess over $10,000.00.

 

Section
7.5 Election
to Cure. Whether Seller elects to cure or objects to an asserted Defect, the Closing
shall proceed if otherwise permitted by this Agreement and the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the amount of such asserted
Defect, but only to the extent such Defect exceeds $10,000.00. If Seller elects to cure (in its response or after arbitration)
an asserted Defect, Seller shall then have until sixty (60) days after the Closing, or, if Seller disputes the asserted Defect
and arbitration of such dispute occurs, sixty (60) days after the arbitration proceedings set forth below are completed, to cure
the underlying asserted Defect at its sole cost, risk and expense. The deadline to cure any underlying defect shall be extended
for up to thirty (30) days as long as Seller works diligently toward such cure. Upon completing the cure for any such Defect,
Seller shall be entitled to payment in immediately available funds within ten (10) Business Days of the date Seller demonstrates
to Buyer’s reasonable satisfaction that such asserted Defect has been cured.

 

Section
7.6 Arbitration. If Seller
and Buyer cannot agree on whether an asserted Defect exists, or (before or after the Closing) whether an asserted Defect has been
cured, or the amount of reduction in the Purchase Price for any Defect, then such issue shall be settled by arbitration in accordance
with Article X. If the aggregate Purchase Price reduction claimed by Buyer exceeds ten percent (10%) of the Purchase Price
and neither Party has terminated this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.3, then the Closing will be postponed until the completion
of the arbitration. If the Seller prevails in such arbitration, Buyer shall pay to Seller in immediately available funds within
ten (10) Business Days from the date of the arbitration panel’s decision the amount determined by such panel to be owed
Seller.

 

article
VIII.

ADDITIONAL COVENANTS

 

Section
8.1 Access to Records. Seller
agrees that it will give Buyer, or Buyer’s authorized representatives, at Seller’s office and at all reasonable times
before the Closing Date, access to Seller’s records pertaining to the Seller’s ownership and the operation of the
Assets (including, without limitation, title files, division order files, directly related financial and tax accounting records,
well files, health, safety and environmental records, lease files, abstracts, production records, joint interest billing records,
records relating to platform and pipeline construction, operation and maintenance and production, severance and ad valorem tax
records), for the purpose of conducting due diligence reviews. Buyer may make copies of such records, at its expense, but shall,
if Seller so requests, return all copies so made if the Closing does not occur; all costs of copying such items shall be borne
by Buyer. Seller shall not be obligated to provide Buyer with access to any records or data which Seller cannot provide to Buyer
without, in Seller’s opinion, breaching, or risking a breach of, agreements with other parties, or waiving, or risking waiving,
legal privilege.

 

    	16

    	 

    

 

Section
8.2 Interim Operation. Seller covenants that from the execution of this Agreement
to the Closing, except as provided herein or otherwise consented to in writing by Buyer, Seller will take all reasonable steps
consistent with past practice to maintain the Leases and Units in full force and effect, to timely pay Seller’s expenses
attributable to the operation of the Assets and to satisfy Seller’s royalty obligations attributable to the Leases and Units
and to maintain all of Seller’s insurance coverage in place prior to the Effective Date, all to the extent possible as a
non-operator of the Assets. Except as necessary in Seller’s sole judgment in emergency situations, Seller shall not, without
Buyer’s consent, voluntarily incur any liability or enter into any commitment with respect to the Assets which will cost
in excess of $10,000.00 net to Buyer with respect to an individual project; cancel any contract associated with the Assets except
in the ordinary course of business; or enter into any hedging, forward sales or similar agreements with respect to production
from the Assets.

 

Section
8.3 Consents to Assign. Seller
represents that the transfer by Seller of the Assets, or any portion thereof, is not subject to the approval of lessors or governmental
agencies having jurisdiction, other forms of consent or certain rights of first refusal or preferential rights of purchase in
favor of third parties, however, Seller shall, prior to Closing, use its reasonable efforts to attempt to obtain the necessary
non-governmental approvals, consents to assign and waivers of preferential rights, if any such approvals, consents or waivers
are discovered. If any such approvals, consents or waivers are denied or not acquired or obtained prior to Closing, the value
associated the affected Assets shall be subtracted from the Purchase Price by the amount allocated for the affected Assets on
Schedule 2.2 by Buyer with the remaining Assets being conveyed at Closing and the value associated with the affected Assets
remaining in escrow after Closing. Seller shall then have until sixty (60) days after the Closing to secure consents and waivers
of preferential rights at its sole cost, risk and expense. The deadline to secure any consents and waivers of preferential rights
shall extended for up to thirty (30) days as long as Seller works diligently to secure such. Upon successfully acquiring such
consents or waivers, Seller shall be entitled to payment in immediately available funds within ten (10) Business Days of
the date Seller demonstrates to Buyer’s reasonable satisfaction that such consents or waivers have been secured.

 

Section 8.4Area
of Mutual Interest. The Parties hereto stipulate that the precise geographic region where the Leases are located and one (1)
mile from the exterior boundaries of the Leases as an Area of Mutual Interest (“AMI”). Within three (3) years from
the date of this Agreement in the event Seller acquires any new leases in the AMI, Seller shall offer these leases to Buyer at
cost and Buyer shall have the option but not the obligation to take these new leases from Seller, however, in the event Buyer acquires
any leases in the AMI from Seller, Seller shall retain an overriding royalty equal to the existing overriding royalty that Seller
acquired under this Agreement and an overriding royalty equal to the difference of burdens and eighty percent (80%) in a new lease
that is within the AMI but was not one of the original Leases to this Agreement. Likewise within three (3) years from the date
of this agreement, in the event Buyer acquires any replacement Leases or any new leases in the AMI, Buyer agrees to convey an overriding
royalty to Seller in the amount of four percent (4%) of one hundred percent (100%), however, this overriding royalty will be reduced
so that Buyer’s net revenue interest shall never be reduced to less than eighty percent (80%). If less than a full interest
is acquired in any replacement Leases or new leases, the overriding royalty shall be proportionately reduced.
