         3.7. Other Matters. All matters related to the Restructuring
Transactions, this First Amendment, the other Loan Papers, Parent, Borrower and
the other Credit Parties shall be acceptable to each Bank in its sole
discretion, and Parent and Borrower shall have delivered to Administrative Agent

         SECTION 4. Representations and Warranties. In order to induce
Administrative Agent and Banks to enter into this First Amendment, Parent and
Borrower hereby jointly and severally represent and warrant to Administrative
Agent and each Bank that:

         4.1. Accuracy of Representations and Warranties. Each representation
and warranty of the Credit Parties contained in the Loan Papers, modified as
necessary for the effect of the Restructuring Transactions, is true and correct
in all material respects as of the date hereof and after giving effect to the
Restructuring Transactions (except to the extent that such representations and
warranties are expressly made as of a particular date, in which event such
representations and warranties were true and correct as of such date);

         4.2. Absence of Defaults. After giving effect hereto, neither a Default
nor an Event of Default has occurred which is continuing;

         4.3. No Defense. No Credit Party has any defenses to payment,
counterclaims or rights of set-off with respect to the Obligations on the date
hereof;

         4.4. Organizational Structure; Nature of Business. PEC exists for the
sole purpose of owning a limited partner interest in Borrower. Each Credit Party
(other than PEC) is engaged only in the business of acquiring, exploring,
developing and operating Mineral Interests and the production, marketing,
processing and transporting of Hydrocarbons therefrom. Schedule 4 attached
hereto accurately reflects, as of the date hereof, and after giving effect to
the Restructuring Transactions: (i) the jurisdiction of incorporation or
organization of each Credit Party, (ii) each jurisdiction in which each Credit
Party is qualified to transact business as a foreign corporation or foreign
partnership, (iii) the authorized, issued and outstanding stock or partnership
interests of each Credit Party, including the names of (and number of shares or
other equity interests held by) the record and beneficial owners of such
interests, and (iv) all outstanding warrants, options, subscription rights,
convertible securities or other rights to purchase capital stock or partnership
interests of each Credit Party. Except as set forth in this Section 4.4 and in
Schedule 4 hereto, no Person holds record or beneficial ownership of any capital
stock or other equity interest in Borrower or any other Subsidiary of Parent or
any other right or option to acquire any capital stock or other equity interest
in Borrower or any other Subsidiary of Parent and, without limiting the
foregoing, there are not outstanding any warrants, options, subscription rights
or other rights to purchase stock or other equity interests in Borrower or any
other Subsidiary of Parent. No Credit Party has made or presently holds any
Investments other than Permitted Investments. Except as set forth in Schedule 4
hereto, Borrower does not have any Subsidiaries, and no Credit Party is a
partner or joint venturer in any partnership or joint venture or a member of any
unincorporated association.

         4.5. Merger Documents. Borrower has provided each Bank with a true and
correct copy of each of the Borrower Merger Documents, including all amendments
and modifications thereto.

SECTION 5. Miscellaneous.

5.1. Reaffirmation of Loan Papers; Extension of Liens. Any and all of the terms
and provisions of the Credit Agreement and the Loan Papers shall, except as
amended and modified hereby, remain in full force and effect. Parent and
Borrower hereby extend the Liens securing the Obligations until the Obligations
have been paid in full, and agree that the amendments and modifications herein
contained shall in no manner affect or impair the Obligations or the Liens
securing payment and performance thereof.

5.2. Parties in Interest. All of the terms and provisions of this First
Amendment shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective successors and assigns.

5.3. Counterparts. This First Amendment may be executed in counterparts, and all
parties need not execute the same counterpart; however, no party shall be bound
by this First Amendment until this First Amendment has been executed by Parent,
Borrower, Administrative Agent and Banks at which time this First Amendment
shall be binding on, enforceable against and inure to the benefit of Parent,
Borrower, Administrative Agent and each Bank. Facsimiles shall be effective as
originals.

5.4. Legal Expenses. Parent and Borrower hereby jointly and severally agree to
pay on demand all reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to Administrative
Agent incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation,
negotiation and execution of this First Amendment and all related documents.

5.5. COMPLETE AGREEMENT. THIS FIRST AMENDMENT, THE CREDIT AGREEMENT AND THE
OTHER LOAN PAPERS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE
CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE
PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.

5.6. Headings. The headings, captions and arrangements used in this First
Amendment are, unless specified otherwise, for convenience only and shall not be
deemed to limit, amplify or modify the terms of this First Amendment, nor affect
the meaning thereof.

5.7 Effectiveness. This First Amendment shall be effective only upon (a) the
execution hereof by Banks, and (b) the satisfaction of each of the conditions
precedent set forth in Section 3 hereof.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this First Amendment to be
duly executed by their respective Authorized Officers on the date and year first
above written.
