Section 3.03        Title
Defect. The term “Title Defect,” as used in this Agreement, shall mean: (a) any encumbrance, encroachment,
irregularity, defect in or objection to Seller’s ownership of any Asset (expressly excluding Permitted Encumbrances) that
causes Seller not to have Defensible Title to such Asset; or (b) any default by Seller under a lease, farmout agreement or other
contract or agreement that would (i) have a material adverse effect on the operation, value or use of such Asset, (ii) prevent
Seller from receiving the proceeds of production attributable to Seller’s interest therein or (iii) result in cancellation
of Seller’s interest therein.

 

Section 3.04          Notice
of Title Defects.

 

		(a)	If Buyer discovers any Title Defect affecting any Asset, Buyer shall notify Seller as promptly
as possible but no later than the expiration of the Examination Period of such alleged Title Defect. To be effective, such notice
must (i) be in writing, (ii) be received by Seller prior to the expiration of the Examination Period, (iii) describe the Title
Defect in sufficient, specific detail (including any alleged variance in the Net Revenue Interest) to the extent reasonably known,
(iv) identify the specific Asset or Assets affected by such Title Defect, and (v) include the value of such Title Defect as determined
by Buyer. Any matters that may otherwise constitute Title Defects, but of which Seller has not been specifically notified by Buyer
in accordance with the foregoing, shall be deemed to have been waived by Buyer for all purposes, except under the Assignment.

 

		(b)	Upon the receipt of such effective notice from Buyer, subject to Section 3.05 Seller and
Buyer shall attempt to mutually agree on a resolution including, but not limited to (i) attempt to cure such Title Defect at any
time prior to the Closing or (ii) exclude the affected Asset from the sale and reduce the Purchase Price by the mutually agreed
allocated value of such affected Asset.

 

		(c)	The value attributable to each Title Defect (the “Title Defect Value”) that
is asserted by Buyer in the Title Defect notices shall be determined based upon the criteria set forth below:

 

		(i)	If the Title Defect is a lien upon any Asset, the Title Defect Value is the amount necessary to
be paid to remove the lien from the affected Asset.

 

		(ii)	If the Title Defect asserted is that the Net Revenue Interest attributable to any well or unit
is less than that stated in Exhibit C or the Working Interest attributable to any well or unit is greater than that
stated in Exhibit C, then the Title Defect Value shall take into account the relative change in the interest from Exhibit C
and the appropriate Allocated Value attributed to such Asset.

 

    	-7-

    	 

    

 

		(iii)	If the Title Defect represents an obligation, encumbrance, burden or charge upon the affected Asset
(including any increase in Working Interest for which there is not a proportionate increase in Net Revenue Interest) of a type
not described in Subsections (i) and (ii) of Section 3.04(c) for which the economic detriment to Buyer is unliquidated,
the amount of the Title Defect Value shall be determined by taking into account the following factors: the Allocated Value of the
affected Asset, the portion of the Asset affected by the Title Defect, the legal effect of the Title Defect, the potential discounted
economic effect of the Title Defect over the life of the affected Asset, the Title Defect Values placed upon the Title Defect by
Buyer and Seller and such other reasonable factors as are necessary to make a proper evaluation.

 

		(iv)	If a Title Defect is not in effect or does not adversely affect an Asset throughout the entire
productive life of such Asset, such fact shall be taken into account in determining the Title Defect Value.

 

		(v)	The Title Defect Value of a Title Defect shall be determined without duplication of any costs or
losses included in another Title Defect Value hereunder.

 

		(vi)	Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall a Title Defect Value exceed
the Allocated Value of the wells, units or other Assets affected thereby.

 

		(vii)	If Buyer and Seller agree on the Title Defect Value, that amount shall be the Title Defect Value.

 

		(viii)	Such other factors as are reasonably necessary to make a proper evaluation.

 

Section 3.05          Remedies
for Title Defects and Title Benefits.

 

		(a)	With respect to each Title Defect that is not cured on or before the Closing, the Purchase Price
shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Title Defect Value agreed upon in writing by Buyer and Seller.

 

		(b)	If any Title Defect is in the nature of an unobtained consent to assignment or other restriction
on assignability, the provisions of Section 3.08 shall apply.

 

    	-8-

    	 

    

 

		(c)	If on or before Closing the Parties have not agreed upon the validity of any asserted Title Defect
or have not agreed on the Title Defect Value attributable thereto, either Party shall have the right to elect to have the validity
of such Title Defect and/or such Title Defect Value determined by an Independent Expert pursuant to Section 16.03; provided
that if the validity of any asserted Title Defect, or the Title Defect Value attributable thereto, is not determined before Closing,
the affected Asset shall be conveyed to Buyer at Closing and the Purchase Price paid at Closing shall be reduced such that only
the undisputed Allocated Value with respect to any affected Asset shall be paid at Closing, and upon the final resolution of such
dispute pursuant to Article XVI, to the extent it is determined that the subject Title Defect was not valid or that the
Title Defect Amount used to reduce the Purchase Price was overstated, Buyer shall promptly refund to Seller the amount determined
pursuant to such final resolution that was withheld by Buyer at Closing.

 

		(d)	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) if the value of a given individual
Title Defect (or individual Title Benefit (as defined in Section 3.09(a))) does not exceed $25,000, then no adjustment to
the Purchase Price shall be made for such Title Defect (or Title Benefit), (ii) if the aggregate adjustment to the Purchase Price
determined in accordance with this Agreement for Title Defects (exceeding $25,000) and Environmental Defects (exceeding $25,000),
or for Title Benefits, does not exceed three percent (3%) of the Purchase Price prior to any adjustments thereto, then no adjustment
of the Purchase Price shall be made therefor, and (iii) if the aggregate adjustment to the Purchase Price determined in accordance
with this Agreement for Title Defects (exceeding $25,000) and Environmental Defects (exceeding $25,000), or for Title Benefits,
does exceed three percent (3%) of the Purchase Price prior to any adjustments thereto, then the Purchase Price shall only be adjusted
by the amount of such excess.

 

Section 3.06         Special
Warranty of Title. Seller hereby agrees to warrant and defend title to the Assets unto Buyer against every Person whomsoever
lawfully claiming or to claim the same or any part thereof, by, through or under Seller and its affiliates, but not otherwise;
subject, however, to the Permitted Encumbrances and the other matters set forth herein.

 

Section 3.07          Preferential
Rights To Purchase.

 

		(a)	Buyer’s good faith allocation of values as set forth in Exhibit C shall be used
to prepare an allocation of the Purchase Price to Assets that are subject to preferential purchase rights and shall be set forth
in Schedule 3.07. Seller shall use its reasonable efforts to comply with all preferential right purchase provisions relative
to any Asset prior to Closing.

 

		(b)	If, prior to Closing, a holder of a preferential purchase right exercises its rights with respect
to an Asset to which its preferential purchase right applies (as determined in accordance with the agreement in which the preferential
purchase right arises) and consummates the purchase, then the Asset covered by such preferential purchase right shall be excluded
from the Assets to be conveyed to Buyer, and the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the Allocated Value of such Asset.

 

 

 

    	-9-

    	 

    

 

		(c)	If by Closing, either (a) the time frame for the exercise of a preferential purchase right has
not expired and Seller has not received notice of an intent not to exercise or a waiver of the preferential purchase right, or
(b) a holder of a preferential purchase right exercises its right but fails to consummate the purchase prior to Closing, then Seller
shall retain the Assets conveyed by such preferential purchase rights and the Purchase Price shall be adjusted downward by an amount
equal to the Allocated Value of such Assets. As to any Assets retained by Seller hereunder, following Closing, if a preferential
purchase right is not consummated within the time frame specified in the preferential purchase right, or if the time frame for
exercise of the preferential purchase right expires without exercise after the Closing, then, subject to the same terms and conditions
set forth in this Agreement, Seller shall promptly convey the applicable Asset to Buyer effective as of the Effective Time, and
Buyer shall pay the Allocated Value thereof pursuant to the terms of this Agreement up to and through the Final Settlement Date
and in connection with the payments to be made with respect to the Final Statement as set forth in Section 12.02(b).

 

		(d)	Seller shall use reasonable efforts to send out the applicable preferential right to purchase notices
within five Business Days after the date this Agreement is executed. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that Seller shall determine
(in its good faith judgment) the extent of the preferential purchase rights encumbering the Assets, and said determination shall
be used by Seller to provide the preferential purchase right notifications.

 

Section 3.08          Consents
to Assignment. Seller shall use all reasonable efforts to obtain all necessary consents from Third Parties to assign the Assets
prior to Closing (other than governmental approvals that are customarily obtained after Closing), and Buyer shall assist Seller
with such efforts. Such consents are set forth on Schedule 3.08. If prior to Closing, Seller fails to obtain a consent to
assign that would invalidate the conveyance of the Asset affected by the consent to assign or materially affect the value or use
of the Asset, then Seller shall retain the affected Asset and the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the Allocated Value of the
affected Asset. If such consent has been obtained as of the Final Settlement Date, then Seller shall convey the affected Asset
to Buyer effective as of the Effective Time, subject to the same terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, and Buyer shall
pay Seller the Allocated Value of the affected Asset, in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. If such consent
has not been obtained as of the Final Settlement Date, the affected Asset shall be excluded from the sale and the Purchase Price
shall be deemed to be reduced by an amount equal to the Allocated Value of the affected Asset. Buyer shall reasonably cooperate
with Seller in obtaining any required consent including providing assurances of reasonable financial conditions, but Buyer shall
not be required to expend funds or make any other type of financial commitments as a condition of obtaining such consent.

Section 3.09          Remedies
for Title Benefits.

 

		(a)	If either Party discovers any Title Benefit during the Examination Period affecting the Assets,
it shall promptly notify the other Party in writing thereof on or before the expiration of the Examination Period. Subject to Section
3.05, Seller shall be entitled to an upward adjustment to the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 10.02(a)(i) with respect
to all Title Benefits, in an amount mutually agreed upon by the Parties. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Title
Benefit” shall mean Seller’s interest in any Subject Interest that is greater than or in addition to that set forth
in Exhibit B (including, without limitation, a Net Revenue Interest that is greater than that set forth in Exhibit B)
or Seller’s Working Interest in any Subject Interest that is less than the Working Interest set forth in Exhibit B
(without a corresponding decrease in the Net Revenue Interest). Any matters that may otherwise constitute Title Benefits, but of
which Buyer has not been specifically notified by Seller in accordance with the foregoing, shall be deemed to have been waived
by Seller for all purposes.

 

		(b)	If with respect to a Title Benefit the Parties are not deemed to have agreed on the amount of the
upward Purchase Price adjustment or have not otherwise agreed on such amount prior to the Closing Date, Seller or Buyer shall have
the right to elect to have such Purchase Price adjustment determined by an Independent Expert pursuant to Section 16.03.
If the amount of such adjustment is not determined pursuant to this Agreement by the Closing, the undisputed portion of the Purchase
Price with respect to the Asset affected by such Title Benefit shall be paid by Buyer at the Closing and, subject to Section
3.05, upon determination of the amount of such adjustment, any unpaid portion thereof shall be paid by Buyer to Seller.

Buyer. The scope of work comprising Buyer’s Environmental Review shall be limited to that mutually agreed by Buyer and Seller
prior to commencement thereof and shall not include any intrusive test or procedure without the prior consent of Seller. Buyer
shall (and shall cause Buyer’s Environmental Consultant to): (i) consult with Seller before conducting any work comprising
Buyer’s Environmental Review, (ii) perform all such work in a safe and workmanlike manner and so as to not unreasonably interfere
with Seller’s operations, and (iii) comply with all applicable Laws, rules and regulations. Buyer shall be responsible for,

to perform any work comprising Buyer’s Environmental Review, and Buyer shall consult with Seller prior to requesting each
such Third Party consent. Seller shall have the right to have a representative or representatives accompany Buyer and Buyer’s
Environmental Consultant at all times during Buyer’s Environmental Review. With respect to any samples taken in connection

identified, to Seller. Buyer hereby agrees to release, defend, indemnify and hold harmless Seller from and against all claims,
losses, damages, costs, expenses, causes of action and judgments of any kind or character (including
those resulting from Seller’s sole, joint, COMPARATIVE or concurrent negligence or strict liability) to the extent
arising out of Buyer’s Environmental Review.

 

		(b)	Unless otherwise required by applicable Law, Buyer shall (and shall cause Buyer’s Environmental
Consultant to) treat confidentially any matters revealed by Buyer’s Environmental Review and any reports or data generated
from such review (the “Environmental Information”), and Buyer shall not (and shall cause Buyer’s Environmental
Consultant to not) disclose any Environmental Information to any Governmental Authority or other Third Party without the prior
written consent of Seller. Unless otherwise required by Law, Buyer may use the Environmental Information only in connection with
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. If Buyer, Buyer’s Environmental Consultant or any Third Party to whom Buyer
has provided any Environmental Information become legally compelled to disclose any of the Environmental Information, Buyer shall
provide Seller with prompt notice sufficiently prior to any such disclosure so as to allow Seller to file any protective order,
or seek any other remedy, as it deems appropriate under the circumstances. If this Agreement is terminated prior to the Closing,
Buyer shall deliver the Environmental Information to Seller, which Environmental Information shall become the sole property of
Seller. Buyer shall provide two copies of the Environmental Information to Seller without charge.

the Asset affected by such disputed Environmental Defect shall be excluded from the Closing and the Purchase Price paid at Closing
shall be reduced by the Allocated Value of such Asset. Upon resolution of such dispute, the Environmental Defect Value, if any,
found to be attributable to such Environmental Defect shall, subject to this Section 4.04, be paid by Seller to Buyer and

shall each have the right to exclude an Asset from the sale if the Environmental Defect Value exceeds the Allocated Value of the
Asset(s) affected thereby.

 

		(c)	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) if the Environmental Defect Value
for a given individual Environmental Defect does not exceed $25,000, then no adjustment to the Purchase Price shall be made for
such Environmental Defect; (ii) if the aggregate adjustment to the Purchase Price determined in accordance with this Agreement
for Environmental Defects (exceeding $25,000) and Title Defects (exceeding $25,000) does not exceed three percent (3%) of the Purchase
Price prior to any adjustments thereto, then no adjustment of the Purchase Price shall be made therefore; and (iii) if the aggregate
adjustment to the Purchase Price determined in accordance with this Agreement for Environmental Defects (exceeding $25,000) and
Title Defects (exceeding $25,000) does exceed three percent (3%) of the Purchase Price prior to any adjustments thereto, then the
Purchase Price shall only be adjusted by the amount of such excess.

of the Assets to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement (“Transfer Taxes”) shall be the responsibility of, and shall

    	-21-

    	 

    
 

Section 9.02         Asset
Taxes. Seller shall retain responsibility for and bear all Asset Taxes for (a) any period ending prior to the Effective Time
and (b) the portion of any Straddle Period that ends immediately prior to the Effective Time. All Asset Taxes with respect to the
ownership or operation of the Assets arising on or after the Effective Time shall be allocated to and borne by Buyer. For purposes
of allocation between Seller and Buyer of Asset Taxes that are payable with respect to Straddle Periods, the portion of any such
Asset Taxes that are attributable to the portion of the Straddle Period that ends immediately prior to the Effective Time shall
(i) in the case of Asset Taxes that are based upon or related to income or receipts or imposed on a transactional basis such
as severance or production Taxes, be deemed equal to the amount that would be payable if the tax year or period ended immediately
prior to the Effective Time; and (ii) in the case of other Asset Taxes, be deemed equal to the product of (A) the amount of
such Asset Taxes multiplied by (B) the quotient of the number of days in the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the day
immediately prior to the day on which the Effective Time occurs, divided by the total number of days in such Straddle Period. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any ad valorem, property or similar Asset Taxes assessed on or measured by the deemed
value of an Asset that is determined, pursuant to applicable law, from the prior production of Hydrocarbons therefrom, shall be
allocated and deemed attributable to the period in which the relevant production of Hydrocarbons occurred, regardless of whether
such Asset Tax is assessed, imposed or payable in a later period. Such Asset Taxes described in the preceding sentence that are
attributable to production occurring in the taxable period that includes the Effective Time shall be prorated based on the amount
of production occurring in such period prior to the Effective Time, on the one hand, and the amount of production occurring in
such period on and after the Effective Time, on the other hand, with the amount of such Asset Taxes allocable to the portion of
the period ending immediately prior to the Effective Time being the responsibility of Seller and the remainder being the responsibility
of Buyer. To the extent the actual amount of an Asset Tax is not determinable at Closing or at the time the Final Statement is
prepared, as applicable, Buyer and Seller shall utilize the most recent information available in estimating the amount of such
Asset Tax for purposes of Sections 10.02(a)(ii), 10.02(b)(iii), 12.01(b)(i) and 12.01(c)(i). If, at the time the
Final Statement is prepared, the amount of such Asset Tax paid by Seller, plus, if applicable, the amount of any adjustment
to the Purchase Price with respect to such Asset Tax made pursuant to Section 10.02(b)(iii) minus, if applicable, the amount
of any adjustment to the Purchase Price with respect to such Asset Tax made pursuant to Section 10.02(a)(ii) is (x) less
than Seller’s share (or an estimate thereof) of the actual amount of such Asset Tax determined pursuant to the foregoing
provisions of this Section 9.02, then Seller shall promptly pay Buyer an amount equal to such difference pursuant Section
12.01(c)(i) (the “Seller Additional Asset Taxes”) or (y) more than Seller’s share (or an estimate
thereof) of the actual amount of such Asset Tax, determined pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.02, then
Buyer shall promptly pay Seller an amount equal to such difference pursuant to Section 12.01(b)(i) (the “Buyer
Additional Asset Taxes”).

Section 9.03         Tax
Cooperation. The Parties shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Party, in connection
with the filing of Tax Returns and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes relating to the Assets. Such
cooperation shall include the retention and (upon another Party’s request) the provision of records and information that
are relevant to any such Tax Return or audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient
basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided under this Agreement. Seller and the Buyer agree
to retain all books and records with respect to tax matters pertinent to the Assets relating to any tax period beginning before
the Effective Time until the expiration of the statute of limitations of the respective tax periods and to abide by all record
retention agreements entered into with any taxing authority.

or similar Taxes (including any interest, fine, penalty or addition to Tax imposed by a taxing authority in connection with such

hereby, if

 

		(1)	Parent and Seller shall have complied with their obligations under this Section 13.11;

that failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the exercise by the directors of Parent of their fiduciary duties under
applicable laws;

 

		(4)	at least five Business Days have elapsed from the later of the date on which Buyer received notice

by Section 13.11(e), the date on which Buyer received notice of the determination of the Board of Directors of Parent whether
the Acquisition Proposal still constitutes a Superior Proposal after giving effect to the adjusted transaction terms under Buyer’s
proposal; and

 

		(5)	Seller terminates this Agreement in accordance with Section 11.01 and concurrently therewith

		(d)	Parent and Seller shall promptly (and in any event within 24 hours of receipt) notify Buyer, at
first orally and thereafter in writing, of any Acquisition Proposal (or amendment thereto), any communication relating to an Acquisition
Proposal (including any request for discussions or negotiations), any request for non-public information concerning the Assets
or any communication from a person that has made an Acquisition Proposal or informs Parent or Seller or any of their respective
Representatives that it is considering making an Acquisition Proposal, received after the date hereof by Parent or Seller (directly
or through any of their respective Representatives), and provide to Buyer a true and complete copy thereof and of any response
thereto made by or on behalf of Parent or Buyer or, if the Acquisition Proposal (or amendment thereto), request, communication
or response is not written or otherwise recorded in tangible or electronic form, a description of the material terms thereof, the
identity of the person who made it and such other particulars relating thereto as Buyer may reasonably request. Parent and Seller
shall keep Buyer fully informed of the status of and any change to the material terms of any such Acquisition Proposal (or amendment
thereto), request, communication or response.

 

		(e)	If Parent or Seller (directly or through any of their respective Representatives) receive a Superior
Proposal, Parent or Seller shall, in addition to their obligations under Section 13.11(d), give Buyer, orally and in writing,
not less than five Business Days’ advance notice of any decision by the Board of Directors of Parent to accept, approve,
recommend or to authorize an agreement to implement the Superior Proposal, which notice shall confirm that the Board of Directors
of Parent has determined that the Acquisition Proposal in question constitutes a Superior Proposal, shall confirm the identity
of the person making the Superior Proposal, and shall be accompanied by a true and complete copy of the Superior Proposal, any
amendments thereto and any material correspondence relating thereto. During such five Business Day period, Buyer shall have the
opportunity, but not the obligation, to propose to amend the terms of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby,
and in that event Parent and Seller shall, and shall cause their respective Representatives to, negotiate in good faith with Buyer
to make such adjustments in the terms of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby as are acceptable to Buyer and
would enable completion of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (as amended) on such adjusted terms instead of the Superior
Proposal. The Board of Directors of Parent shall diligently and promptly review any such proposal by Buyer and determine in good
faith whether the Acquisition Proposal still constitutes a Superior Proposal after giving effect to the adjusted transaction terms
under Buyer's proposal, and Parent or Buyer shall give Buyer, orally and in writing, prompt notice of such determination. If Buyer
proposes to adjust the terms of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby in a manner that would result in a transaction
more favorable, from a financial point of view, to Parent and Seller (taken as a whole) or the Parent Securityholders, as applicable,
than the transaction contemplated by the Acquisition Proposal and so advises the Board of Directors of Parent within five Business
Days of receiving written notice of the Superior Proposal, Parent and Seller shall not accept, approve, recommend or enter into
any agreement to implement such Superior Proposal or release the person making the Superior Proposal from any confidentiality or
“standstill” obligations, and shall not withdraw, amend or qualify in any manner the approval or recommendation of
the Board of Directors of Parent or any committee thereof of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in a manner
adverse to Buyer.

 

    	-41-

    	 

    

  

		(f)	Each of Parent and Seller acknowledges and agrees that each successive modification of any Acquisition
Proposal shall constitute a new Acquisition Proposal for purposes of this Section 13.11.

 

		(g)	The Board of Directors of Parent shall promptly reaffirm its approval and recommendation of this
Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby by news release in the event that any Acquisition Proposal is publicly announced
and either (i) the Board of Directors of Parent determines that the Acquisition Proposal is not a Superior Proposal, or (ii) the
Board of Directors of Parent determines that a proposal by Buyer to adjust the terms of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated
hereby, as contemplated by Section 13.11(e), would result in the Acquisition Proposal not being a Superior Proposal, and
Buyer has agreed to such adjustments. Buyer shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any such news release.

 

		(h)	Parent and Seller shall ensure that their Representatives are aware of the provisions of this Section
13.11, and shall be jointly and severally responsible for any breach of this Section 13.11 by any such Representative.

the form of the agreement attached as Exhibit G from each of the officers and directors of Seller listed on Schedule

		(b)	Seller shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to Seller’s Auditor
such representation letters, in form and substance customary for representation letters provided to external audit firms by Seller
(if the financial statements are subject of an audit or are the subject of a review pursuant to Statement of Accounting Standards
100 (Interim Financial Information)), as may be reasonably requested by Seller’s Auditor, with respect to the Special Financial
Statements. Buyer agrees that (i) Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller and provide a defense for Seller (excluding, in

		(c)	Seller will engage Seller’s Auditor to perform an audit of the Special Financial Statements
and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause Seller’s Auditor to issue unqualified opinions with respect to the
Special Financial Statements (the Special Financial Statements and related audit opinions being hereinafter referred to as the
“Audited Special Financial Statements”), and provide its written consent for the use of Seller’s audit
reports with respect to Special Financial Statements in reports, registration statements, or other documents filed by the Buyer
or any of its affiliates under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, as needed. Buyer shall reimburse Seller for all fees charged
by Seller’s Auditor with respect to the preparation and delivery by Seller’s Auditor to Buyer of the Audited Special
Financial Statements and any other fees charged by Seller’s Auditor to facilitate Buyer’s ongoing compliance with SEC
rules and regulations. Seller shall take all reasonable action as may be necessary to facilitate the completion of such audit and
delivery of the Audited Special Financial Statements to Buyer or any of its affiliates as soon as reasonably practicable. Buyer
shall reimburse Seller for all other reasonable costs and expenses incurred in complying with this Section 17.17.

 

		(d)	At the Closing, Seller shall deliver to Buyer the Audited Special Financial Statements as of and
