      (a)       
    Notwithstanding the Change of Control effected by the
Sale Transaction, and notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.02(e)(2) of
the GP LLC Agreement pursuant to which in the event of a Change of Control
Genesis GP is required to redeem each Class B Members’ Individual Class B
Interest for the Redemption Amount, and the Class B Members cease to be Members

paid to the Subject Member as a result of the Sale Transaction and that
following closing of the Sale Transaction the Subject Member shall continue to
be a Member of Genesis GP.

      

      (b)       
    To give effect to the desire and intent expressed in
Section 2(a) above, the Parties agree that effective immediately prior to the

occurring:

      

      (i)       
     notwithstanding any provision of Section
3.02(e)(2) thereof to the contrary, the GP LLC Agreement is hereby amended to
provide that instead of the Subject Member’s Individual Class B Interests being
redeemed for the Redemption Amount and the Subject Member ceasing to be a Member
of Genesis GP as a result of the Change of Control effected by the Sale
Transaction, the Subject Member will not cease to be a Member of Genesis GP as
of the effective date of such Change of Control and no Redemption Amount shall
be paid to the Subject Member, but instead effective simultaneously with, and by
virtue of, the Merger the Class B Ownership Interests of the Subject Member will
be converted into equity interests in the entity surviving the Merger;
and

      

      (ii)      
     this Section 2(b) will constitute part of the
Genesis GP LLC Agreement.

      (c)       
    The Subject Member agrees that effective simultaneously
with, and by virtue of, the Merger, and for the benefit of the Buyer, he will no
longer be a Class B Member of Genesis GP;

      

      (d)      
     The Subject Member agrees that effective
simultaneously with, and by virtue of, the Merger the Subject Member will
receive consideration for the Redemption Amount and all other amounts to which
he is entitled under the GP LLC Agreement by virtue of the Sale Transaction,
including consideration received upon the conversion of his Class B Ownership
Interests into equity interests in the entity surviving the Merger;
and

      

      (e)       
    Effective simultaneously with closing of the Sale
Transaction, and without further action on his part, the Subject Member hereby
releases Genesis GP, Denbury, DGM, and the Buyer and their respective Affiliates
(as that term is defined in the Purchase Agreement), from any and all liability
or obligation for payment of the Redemption Amount or any other amounts to which
he is entitled under the GP LLC Agreement by virtue of the Sale
Transaction.  The Subject Member expressly agrees that the Buyer and
its Affiliates are third party beneficiaries of such release.

      

      (f)       
    The Parties agree that the Subject Member’s Redemption
Amount as of the closing of the Sale Transaction is $5,714,639.84 , and that
such Redemption Amount will be used in connection with determining the purchase
price to be paid by Buyer to DGM in connection with the Sale
Transaction.

      

      3.        
    Deferred
Compensation.

      

      (a)     
      The Administrative Committee (as that term
is defined in the Deferred Compensation Plan) has adopted resolutions

Compensation Grants effective immediately prior to, and conditioned on the
occurrence of, the closing of the Sale Transaction.  In connection
with such termination, DGM will contribute funds to Genesis GP in the amount of
$1,007,228.54 with respect to the Subject Member, and in the amount of
$866,685.03 with respect to Blount, in each case being the Maximum Deferred
Compensation Amount (as that term is defined in their respective Deferred
Compensation Grants), and as part of the closing of the Sale Transaction Genesis
GP will pay such amounts respectively to the Subject Member and Blount (less
withholding as provided in Section 5 of their respective Deferred Compensation
Grants), but be deemed to have paid such amounts immediately prior to such
closing, in liquidation of their rights and interests under the Deferred
Compensation Plan and their respective Deferred Compensation Grants and in
liquidation of Genesis GP’s obligations with respect thereto.

      

      (b)     
      The Subject Member acknowledges and agrees
that:

      

      (i)     
       Effective immediately prior to, and
conditioned on the occurrence of, the closing of the Sale Transaction, the
Deferred Compensation Plan and his respective Deferred Compensation Grant will
be terminated; and

      

      (ii)       
    Upon receipt by him at closing of the Sale Transaction
of his Maximum Deferred Compensation Amount in the amount shown above (less
withholding as provided in Section 5 of his Deferred Compensation Grant), he
will have received payment in full of all amounts to which he is entitled under
the Deferred Compensation Plan and his Deferred Compensation Grant and in
connection therewith, and without further action on his part, he hereby releases
Genesis GP, Denbury, DGM, and the Buyer and their respective Affiliates, from
any and all liability or obligation for payment of any amounts under the
Deferred Compensation Plan or his Deferred Compensation Grant.  The
Subject Member expressly agrees that the Buyer and its Affiliates are third
party beneficiaries of such release.

      AGREEMENTS

      

      In
consideration of the mutual terms, conditions and other agreements set forth
herein, the Parties agree as follows:

      

      1.          
  Transfer
of Class A Interests.  Effective simultaneously with the
closing of the Sale Transaction, the Class A Interests will be transferred to
Buyer, Buyer will be admitted as the Class A Member of Genesis GP in
substitution of DGM with all the rights and powers of the Class A Member under,
and will be bound by the terms and conditions of, the GP LLC Agreement, DGM will
cease to be the Class A Member, a Change of Control will have occurred, and DGM
will cease to have or exercise any right or power as a member of Genesis GP
except for rights of indemnification as contemplated by the GP LLC Agreement,
the Partnership Agreement and the Purchase Agreement.

      

      2.      
      Redemption Amount, Amendment
of GP LLC Agreement.

      

      (a)    
       As a result of the Change of Control
effected by the Sale Transaction, and as provided in Section 3.02(e)(2) of the
GP LLC Agreement pursuant to which in the event of a Change of Control Genesis
GP is required to redeem the Subject Member’s Individual Class B Interest for
the Redemption Amount, and the Subject Member ceases to be a Member of Genesis
GP, the Parties agree that effective simultaneously with the closing of the Sale
Transaction the Subject Member’s Individual Class B Interest will be redeemed
for the Redemption Amount as provided in Section 3.02(e)(2) of the GP LLC
Agreement, which amount will be paid to the Subject Member as part of the
closing of the Sale Transaction, the Subject Member will cease to be a Member of
Genesis GP as a result of the Change of Control effected by the Sale
Transaction, and the Subject Member will no longer have any rights under the GP
LLC Agreement other than the right to receive the Redemption Amount in the
amount stated in Section 2(d) below and other than rights, if any, against
Genesis GP under Article 7 thereof.

      

      (b)       
    The Subject Member agrees that upon payment to him of
his Redemption Amount as part of the closing of the Sale Transaction, the
Subject Member will have received his Redemption Amount and all other amounts to
which he is entitled under the GP LLC Agreement; and

      

      (c)      
     Effective simultaneously with closing of the Sale
Transaction, and without further action on his part, the Subject Member hereby
releases Genesis GP, Denbury, DGM, and the Buyer and their respective Affiliates
(as that term is defined in the Purchase Agreement), from any and all liability
or obligation for payment of the Redemption Amount or any other amounts to which
he is entitled under the GP LLC Agreement.  The Subject Member
expressly agrees that the Buyer and its Affiliates are third party beneficiaries
of such release.  The release in this Section 2(c) is conditioned and
will be effective upon the Subject Member being paid his Redemption Amount in
the amount provided in Section 2(d) below.

      
        
           

        

        
          2

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

      (d)       
    The Parties agree that the Subject Member’s Redemption
Amount as of the closing of the Sale Transaction is $4,917,248.23, and that such
Redemption Amount will be used in connection with determining the purchase price
to be paid by Buyer to DGM in connection with the Sale Transaction.

      

      (e)           (i)      
      Notwithstanding the Change of Control
effected by the Sale Transaction, and notwithstanding the provisions of Section
3.02(e)(2) of the GP LLC Agreement pursuant to which in the event of a Change of
Control Genesis GP is required to redeem each Class B Members’ Individual Class
B Interest for the Redemption Amount, and the Class B Members cease to be
Members of Genesis GP, the Parties desire and intend that no Redemption Amount,
or only a portion of the Redemption Amount, shall be paid to the Other Class B
Members as a result of the Sale Transaction and that following closing of the
Sale Transaction the Other Class B Members shall continue to be Members of
Genesis GP.

      

      (ii)       
    To give effect to the desire and intent expressed in
Section 2(e)(i) above, the Parties agree that effective immediately prior to the
closing of the Sale Transaction, but subject to such closing occurring,
notwithstanding any provision of Section 3.02(e)(2) thereof to the contrary, the
GP LLC Agreement is hereby amended to provide that instead of the Other Class B
Members’ Individual Class B Interests being redeemed for the Redemption Amount
and the Other Class B Members ceasing to be Members of Genesis GP as a result of
the Change of Control effected by the Sale Transaction, the Other Class B
Members will not cease to be Members of Genesis GP as of the effective date of
such Change of Control and no, or only a portion of, the Redemption Amount shall
be paid to any Other Class B Member, but instead effective simultaneously with,
and by virtue of, the Merger the Class B Ownership Interests of the Other Class
B Members that are not redeemed will be converted into equity interests in the
entity surviving the Merger; and

      

      (iii)           This
Section 2(e) will constitute part of the Genesis GP LLC Agreement.

      

      3.       
     Deferred
Compensation.

      

      (a)     
      The Administrative Committee (as that term
is defined in the Deferred Compensation Plan) has adopted resolutions
terminating and liquidating the Deferred Compensation Plan and the Deferred
Compensation Grants effective immediately prior to, and conditioned on the
occurrence of, the closing of the Sale Transaction.  In connection
with such termination, DGM will contribute funds to Genesis GP in the amount of
$1,007,228.54 with respect to Sims, and in the amount of $866,685.03 with
respect to the Subject Member, in each case being the Maximum Deferred
Compensation Amount (as that term is defined in their respective Deferred
Compensation Grants), and as part of the closing of the Sale Transaction Genesis
GP will pay such amounts respectively to Sims and the Subject Member (less
withholding as provided in Section 5 of their respective Deferred Compensation
Grants), but be deemed to have paid such amounts immediately prior to such
closing, in liquidation of their rights and interests under the Deferred
Compensation Plan and their respective Deferred Compensation Grants and in
liquidation of Genesis GP’s obligations with respect thereto.

      

      (b)      
     The Subject Member acknowledges and agrees

      (i)         
   Effective immediately prior to, and conditioned on the
occurrence of, the closing of the Sale Transaction, the Deferred Compensation
Plan and his Deferred Compensation Grant will be terminated; and

      

      (ii)        
   Upon receipt by him at closing of the Sale Transaction of his
Maximum Deferred Compensation Amount in the amount shown above (less withholding
as provided in Section 5 of his Deferred Compensation Grant), he will have
received payment in full of all amounts to which he is entitled under the
Deferred Compensation Plan and his Deferred Compensation Grant and in connection
therewith, and without further action on his part, he hereby releases Genesis
GP, Denbury, DGM, and the Buyer and their respective Affiliates, from any and
all liability or obligation for payment of any amounts under the Deferred
Compensation Plan or his Deferred Compensation Grant.  The Subject
Member expressly agrees that the Buyer and its Affiliates are third party
beneficiaries of such release.

obligation of any nature whatsoever to the Subject Member under the Guaranty
Agreement, and that the Guaranty Agreement, and any and all liabilities and
obligations of Denbury thereunder, are released, forever discharged, cancelled,

and date beneath such marking, and return the same to Denbury; and

      

      (b)       
    the Subject Member hereby agrees that Denbury, DGM, and
their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and affiliated entities
are released and forever discharged from any and all liability, obligation,
claim, or cause of action of any nature whatsoever, to or of the Subject Member
arising under, related to or growing out of the Genesis GP LLC Agreement or the
