(ii)

	
Northdown shall pay all of Aimwell’s 10.00% Percentage Interest share of all costs, expenses, liabilities and obligations (including without limitation, Licence obligations, Licence rentals, manpower costs, well costs, seismic and other technical data costs) arising in respect of operations jointly conducted in respect of the Licence (“Joint Operations”) until the date that a Field Development Plan is formally approved by the UK Secretary of State for the development of a discovery of petroleum in the Blocks comprised in the Licence (the “Northdown/Aimwell Carry”).

  

3

  

	
  

	
(iii)

	
Northdown shall be free to assign (whether by sale or farm-out or otherwise) all or part of its Percentage Interest in each Block and the Licence provided that:

By way of example of the above, if Northdown assigns 50.00% of its Percentage Interest (i.e a 45.00% Percentage Interest) to a third party (“Incoming Party”, then 50.00% of the Northdown/Aimwell Carry, (being the payment of 5.00% Percentage Interest share of Aimwell’s total 10.00% Percentage Interest share of all costs, expenses, liabilities and obligations (“Costs and Expenses”) arising in respect of Joint Operations in the Blocks) shall be paid by such Incoming Party – the balance attributable to the Northdown/Aimwell Carry, being the payment of 5.00% Percentage Interest share of Aimwell’s total 10.00% Percentage Interest share of all Costs and Expenses arising in respect of Joint Operations in the Blocks shall be paid by Northdown.

	
(d)  

	
In respect of any future assignment by Northdown of all or part of its Percentage Interest and a corresponding proportionate share of the Northdown/Aimwell Carry to a third party, Northdown shall remain liable to Aimwell for any failure or default on the part of such third party to pay the corresponding proportionate share of the Northdown/Aimwell Carry assigned to such third party.

	
  

	
(e)

	
Northdown shall procure that in respect of any assignment of  all or part of its Percentage Interest, it will procure that the assignee of such interest enters into a legally enforceable agreement with the other parties to this Agreement in respect of the obligations assumed under this Clause 2 (iii).”

“3.

	
Aimwell shall, subject to any necessary Government and partner consents, have the right to assign (whether by sale or farmout or otherwise) all or part of its Percentage Interest in each Block and the Licence. The assignment of all or part of Aimwell’s Percentage Interest shall also include the assignment of Aimwell’s right to and Northdown’s corresponding obligations (and rights) in respect of, the Northdown/Aimwell Carry; corresponding, in each case, with Aimwell’s Percentage Interest assigned.”

By way of example of the above, if following the date hereof: Aimwell assigns 50.00% of its Percentage Interest (i.e a 5.00% Percentage Interest) to a third party (“Incoming Party”):

	
(a)  

	
then 50% of the right to (together with the corresponding obligation in respect of) the Northdown/Aimwell Carry, (being the payment of all of the Incoming Party’s total 5.00% Percentage Interest share of all Costs and Expenses arising in respect of Joint Operations in the Blocks) shall also be assigned to such Incoming Party and Northdown shall pay all of such Incoming Party’s 5.00% Percentage Interest share of all such Costs and Expenses arising in respect of Joint Operations until the date that a Field Development Plan is formally approved by the UK Secretary of State for the development of a discovery of petroleum in the Blocks comprised in the Licence;

 

	
(b)  

	
In such example, Aimwell will retain the right to 50% of the right to (together with the corresponding obligation in respect of) the Northdown/Aimwell Carry being the payment of all of Aimwell’s 5.00% Percentage Interest share of all Costs and Expenses arising in respect of Joint Operations until the date that a Field Development Plan is formally approved by the UK Secretary of State for the development of a discovery of petroleum in the Blocks comprised in the Licence.”
