     (20%) interest in each lease that PEC elects to acquire is the sum equal to
     twenty  percent  (20%)  of  Rock's  acquisition  costs with respect to such
     lease.  The  purchase  price  shall  be  paid  by reduction of the original
     principal  amount  of  the  Rock  Promissory  Note.

     of  Rock with respect to such leases are terminated. The purchase price for
     the eighty percent (80%) interest in each lease that Rock elects to acquire
     is  the  sum  equal to eighty percent (80%) of PEC's acquisition costs with
     respect to such lease. The purchase price shall be funded by increasing the
     original  principal  amount  of  the  Rock  Promissory  Note.

wishes to accept, then it shall cause the same proportionate terms to be offered
to  the  other  Party  after  taking  into  account  the  amount remaining to be
recovered to reach Payout.  If an offeror wishes to buy only a portion of a well
or  project,  then  the  Party  that wishes to sell shall give the non-receiving
party  an  opportunity  to  participate  in  the sale proportionate to ownership

believes will result in Development Costs, net to its interests, for the Garwood
North  Leases  and  the  Garwood South Leases exceeding $8,800,000.  The Parties
agree  that  no  operation in the Garwood AMI shall  be overlapped in order that

together  with  (ii)  the  reasonably  anticipated  costs for performance of the
second  operation  (with a reasonable allowance for contingencies) are projected

Rock's  request,  then PEC would be entitled to recover from the well upon which
the second operation was performed a sum equal to four hundred percent (400%) of
the  amount

                                       15

                                    -------------------------------------------

                                       30AMENDED RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL AGREEMENT
                    ----------------------------------------

     This  Right  of First Refusal Agreement ("Agreement") is entered into as of
December  30,  2005  ("Effective  Date") between ROCK ENERGY PARTNERS OPERATING,
L.P.  ("REP")  and  PEC  ENERGY  CORPORATION  ("PEC").

                                    RECITALS:

     A.     PEC,  through  its several existing subsidiaries, is in the business
of  locating,  acquiring and developing oil and gas prospects in several oil and
gas  producing  regions of the United States and has implemented a business plan
to expand its available inventory of assets which are currently producing and/or
potentially  productive  upon  successful  development.

     B.     PEC  and  REP  desire  to  implement a relationship with one another
allowing  REP  an  opportunity  to  acquire,  on a right of first refusal basis,
participation rights in certain newly acquired projects, subject to the specific
terms,  conditions  and  limitations  described  herein.

                               TERMS OF AGREEMENT:

     NOW,  THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein,
PEC  and  REP  agree  as  follows:

     1.     PROJECTS COVERED BY THIS AGREEMENT.  This Agreement shall apply only
            ----------------------------------
to  those  projects:  a)  made  available  to  PEC  during the Term (hereinafter
defined) in which PEC has committed to participate for not less than ten percent
(10%)  of  the  total project interest made available to PEC (hereinafter called
"Qualified Projects"); and b) which are actually offered to REP in writing under
the  terms of this Agreement.  PEC shall have no obligation under this Agreement
to offer participation rights to REP in all of its available Qualified Projects.
The  particular  Qualified  Projects  which are offered by PEC to REP under this
Agreement  shall  be  selected  by PEC in its sole discretion, but PEC agrees to
offer  sufficient  Qualified  Projects  during  the  Term  (or any extended term
hereinafter  described)  which,  if accepted by REP, would permit REP to achieve
its  Minimum  Funding  Threshold  (hereinafter  defined).

     2.     RIGHT  OF  REFUSAL.   PEC  hereby  grants  to  REP  during  the Term
            -------------------
(hereinafter  defined)  a  right  of  first refusal to acquire not less than ten
percent  (10%)  and up to but not more than forty percent (40%) of the interests
committed  by  PEC  in  the  Qualified Projects offered by PEC to REP under this
Agreement.  As  to each such Qualified Prospect offered by PEC to REP under this
Agreement,  the  Parties  agree  to  follow  the  notice, acceptance and funding
procedures  set  forth  hereinbelow.

     3.     TERM  OF  AGREEMENT.  The  initial term ("Initial Term") under which
            -------------------
this  Agreement  shall continue in force and effect shall be the period from the
Effective  Date  above  until  the  close  of business on December 31, 2006. The
Initial  Term  shall  be

                                        1
<PAGE>
automatically  extended  from  year-to-year  after December 31, 2006 (e.g. until
December  31, 2007, 2008, etc., as applicable) [hereinafter collectively called,
with  the  Initial  Term,  the "Term"] upon the occurrence of any one (1) of the
following  three  (3)  events,  conditions  or  circumstances:  a)  REP  expends
$3,000,000  in  the  2006 calendar year or $3,000,000 in any subsequent calendar
year  of  the Term (hereinafter called the "Minimum Funding Threshold") toward a
combination  of  acquisition  costs,  drilling  costs  of  the initial well on a
project  and front end costs (e.g. bonus consideration, etc.); b)   PEC fails to
offer  to  REP  sufficient  Qualified  Projects such that the acceptance of, and
participation  in,  by REP in 50% of the Qualified Projects offered with  twenty
five percent (25%) of PEC's available interest would have theoretically resulted
in  the  expenditure  by  REP of the Minimum Funding Threshold for that calendar
year;  or  c) more than fifty percent (50%) of the Qualified Projects offered by
PEC to REP in a calendar year are presented during October, November or December
of that calendar year.  For purposes of achieving the Minimum Funding Threshold,
the  Parties  agree that expenditures by REP above the Minimum Funding Threshold
during a calendar year shall not carry over to the succeeding calendar year as a
credit  toward  the  succeeding  year's  Minimum  Funding  Threshold.

     4.     SUBMISSION  OF  AVAILABLE  INFORMATION.  PEC  shall  forward  to REP
            --------------------------------------
detailed  summary information in its possession regarding the Qualified Prospect
at the time of presentment.  REP shall have not less than ten (10) business days
following  receipt  of  the  detailed summary information to respond.  REP shall
have the right to request additional information which it believes is reasonably
necessary  to  evaluate  the  Qualified  Project,  but  such  request by REP for
additional  information  shall  not  extend  the  period  within  which REP must
exercise its participation election, unless the parties otherwise agree provided
that  PEC  furnishes  the  information  requested  by  REP  (if  the  requested
information  is  available)  within  3  business  days  of  request.

     5.     NOTICE,  ELECTION  AND FUNDING PROCEDURES.  Upon presentation by PEC
            -----------------------------------------
of  a  Qualified  Project to REP, REP shall have not less than fifteen (15) days
nor  more  than  thirty  (30)  days  to notify PEC in writing of its election to
participate  and  the  percentage  of its participation.  All  front end payment
requirements  related  to  the  Qualified Project offered to and accepted by REP
(e.g. acreage reimbursement costs payable to PEC) shall be limited to the higher
of a) the actual costs incurred by PEC in acquiring the Qualified Project (which
shall  include  the  actual  cost  of  leases for a Qualified Project which is a
drilling  project  and  which  shall  include  the  actual  expenditures for due
diligence  for  a  Qualified  Project which is a production acquisition), and b)
REP's  proportionate  share  of  the  front  end fees paid to PEC by other third
parties whose participation in the Qualified Project is on an arms length basis.
Such  front end costs shall be funded by REP on or before thirty (30) days after
presentation  of  the  Qualified  Project  by PEC unless otherwise agreed by the
Parties.  To  the extent that PEC's opportunity to acquire the Qualified Project
requires a cash payment to an arms length third party by a date certain in order
to  avoid forfeiture of PEC's opportunity to acquire the Qualified Project (e.g.
pursuant  to  an  option  to  purchase  from the third party), then PEC shall so
advise REP and REP shall pay its proportionate share of the front end payment in
accordance  with  the  applicable deadline as a further condition to exercise of
its  right to participate (provided that such required payment is not due to the
arms  length  third  party less than fifteen [15] days after presentation of the
Qualified  Project  to  REP).

                                        2
<PAGE>
     6.     ASSIGNMENT  OF  INTERESTS  IN  LEASES  AND  WELLS  AND  REVERSIONARY
            --------------------------------------------------------------------
INTEREST. PEC shall transfer title to REP as to the interest purchased by REP at
---------
the later to occur of a) acquisition of title by PEC as to the Qualified Project
(or  leases  within  the Qualified Project) and b) upon payment by REP to PEC of
REP's  applicable  front  end  acquisition  fees  based  upon  the  percentage
participation  elected  by  REP.  PEC  shall  retain an after payout twenty five
percent  (25%)  reversionary  interest  in  each interest in a Qualified Project
acquired  by  REP  pursuant  to  this Agreement, with such reversionary interest
being  proportionate  to  the  interest  actually  acquired  by REP (e.g. if REP
                                                                     ---
acquires  a  10%  leasehold  interest by exercise of its right of first refusal,
then  the  after  payout  reversionary interest of PEC shall be 25% of 10%). The
following  stipulations shall apply to the after payout reversionary interest of
PEC:  (i)  if  the  Qualified  Project  is  a  drilling project without existing
production,  then  payout shall be computed on a well-by-well basis; (ii) if the
Qualified  Project  is  a project with existing production, then payout shall be
computed  on  a  project-wide  basis, inclusive of the costs associated with any
developmental drilling performed on the Qualified Project; and (iii) PEC's after
payout reversionary interest shall be reduced on a "favored nations" basis to be
equivalent  to  any  terms  given  by PEC to a third party in the same Qualified
Project  (whether  before  or  after  the  offer  to  REP) which are financially
superior  to  REP's  participation terms after consideration of any promotion to
PEC  relative  to  the  third party which results in the financial equivalent of
less  than  a  25%  after  payout interest to PEC in the third party's interest.

     7.     OPERATIONS  BY  PEC'S  AFFILIATE.  The  operations  on the Qualified
            --------------------------------
Project  shall  be  subject  to  a  joint  operating  agreement  with  attached
accounting procedure which has been agreed by the Parties and is consistent with
the  terms  of  the  form  of  the Approved Operating Agreement, as that term is
defined  in  the  Agreement  dated  effective  December  30, 2003 by and between

     8.     TIME  IS  OF  ESSENCE/ATTORNEYS  FEES.  Time  is of the essence with
            -------------------------------------
respect to this Agreement and each party hereto shall have the right to specific
performance  as  to  the obligations set forth herein.  In the event that either
party  seeks enforcement of this Agreement in any legal or equitable proceeding,
including arbitration proceedings, the prevailing party in such proceeding shall
be  entitled  to  recover from the other party all expenses attributable to such
proceeding,  including  interest,  court  costs  and  attorneys  fees.

     9.     ENTIRE  AGREEMENT.   This  Agreement,  the  documents to be executed
            -----------------
hereunder,  and  each  Exhibit  attached  hereto constitute the entire agreement
between  the  parties  pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersede all
prior  agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, whether oral or
written,  of  the  Parties  pertaining  to  the  subject  matter  hereof.

             -----------------
without PEC's written consent except that REP may assign, without PEC's consent,
to  its  lenders,  in connection with any recapitalization or reorganization, to
REP's designee, or in connection with REP's funding arrangements, including to a
newly  created  funding vehicle.  This Agreement binds and inures to the benefit
of  the  Parties hereto and their respective heirs, successors, representatives,
assigns  and  transferees,  subject  to  this  prohibition  against non-approved
assignments.
