 ARTICLE III 
 PAYMENTS 
  
 3.1 Payment Terms. Autodesk will provide cash consideration to Avatech. Payments shall be made by wire transfer within twenty-four (24) hours of

 3.3 Taxes. 
  
 (a)
Payment of Taxes. Avatech shall be solely responsible for the payment of, and shall pay when due and indemnify Autodesk against, all applicable federal and state taxes, including any sales, use, excise or transfer taxes and other taxes

Software. 
  
 4.2 Separate Covenants. The covenants
contained in Sections 4.1 will be construed as a series of separate covenants, one for each county, city, state and country of the geographic scope. If, in any judicial proceeding, a court refuses to enforce any of such separate covenants (or any
part thereof), then such unenforceable covenant (or such part) will be eliminated from this Agreement to the extent necessary 

 
to permit the remaining separate covenants (or portions thereof) to be enforced. In the event that the provisions of Sections 4.1 are deemed to exceed the
time, geographic or scope limitations permitted by applicable law, then such provisions will be reformed to the maximum time, geographic or scope limitations, as the case may be, permitted by applicable laws. 
  
 ARTICLE V 
 CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION 
  
 5.1 Disclosure. For purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” means any proprietary information, technical data, trade secrets or know-how, including, but not limited to, research,
business plans or models, product plans, products, services, computer software and code, developments, inventions, processes, formulas, technology, designs, drawings, engineering, hardware configuration information, marketing, finances or other
business information disclosed by Autodesk either directly or indirectly in writing, orally or by drawings or inspection of parts or equipment or owned by Autodesk even though not delivered by Autodesk. It is understood that all Confidential
Information is and shall remain the sole property of Autodesk, and Avatech shall have no interest therein. Upon Autodesk’s request, Avatech shall promptly return to Autodesk all such tangible Confidential Information. 
  
 5.2 Exclusions. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.1,
Confidential Information shall exclude information that Avatech can demonstrate: (i) was independently developed by Avatech without any use of Autodesk’s Confidential Information or by Avatech’s employees or other agents (or independent
contractors hired by Avatech) who have not been exposed to Autodesk’s Confidential Information (provided that this clause does not limit the terms of Article 4); (ii) becomes known to Avatech, without restriction, from a source other than
Autodesk (or Autodesk Confidential Information) that had a right to disclose it without breach of this Agreement; or (iii) was in the public domain at the time it was disclosed or enters the public domain through no act or omission of Avatech.

  
 5.3 Transferred Software. Notwithstanding anything in
Sections 5.1 and 5.2, the Transferred Software and any other non-public information regarding the Intellectual Property Rights shall be deemed Confidential Information of Autodesk. 
  
 5.4 Confidentiality Obligation. Avatech may use Autodesk Confidential Information solely to fulfill its obligations
to Autodesk in connection with this Agreement. Avatech shall treat as confidential and not disclose to any third party any of Autodesk’s Confidential Information and shall not use such Confidential Information for its own benefit. Without
limiting the foregoing, Avatech shall use at least the same degree of care which it uses to prevent the disclosure of its own confidential information of like importance, but in no event with less than reasonable care, to prevent the disclosure of
Autodesk’s Confidential Information. Avatech further agrees to take all reasonable precautions to prevent any unauthorized disclosure or use of any Autodesk Confidential Information. 
  
 5.5 Confidentiality of Agreement. Each Party agrees that the terms and conditions, but not the existence, of this
Agreement shall be treated as Autodesk’s Confidential Information and that no reference to the terms and conditions of this Agreement or to activities pertaining thereto may be made in any form of public or commercial advertising without the
prior written consent of Autodesk; provided, however, that Avatech may disclose the terms and conditions of this Agreement: (i) to its legal counsel; (ii) as required by any court or other governmental body; or (ii) as otherwise
required by law. 
  
 5.6 Remedies. Unauthorized use by
Avatech of Autodesk’s Confidential Information will diminish the value of such information. Therefore, if Avatech breaches any of its obligations with respect to confidentiality or use of Confidential Information hereunder, Avatech agrees and
acknowledges that Autodesk shall be entitled to equitable relief to protect its interest therein, including injunctive relief, as well as money damages. 
  
 5.7 Required Disclosure. In the event that Avatech believes that it will be compelled, or is compelled, by a court, administrative agency, or other
governmental body to disclose Autodesk’s Confidential Information, it shall: (i) provide prompt notice thereof to Autodesk so that Autodesk make take steps to oppose such disclosure, and (ii) cooperate with Autodesk’s reasonable attempts
to oppose such disclosure, and (iii) use its reasonable efforts to obtain a protective order or otherwise prevent unrestricted or public disclosure of such information. 

 5.8 Public Announcements. Avatech shall not make any public announcement relating to this
Agreement except upon Autodesk’s prior written consent, which may be granted or withheld in Autodesk’s sole discretion.

 9.5 Governing
Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED IN ALL RESPECTS BY THE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA AS SUCH LAWS APPLY TO AGREEMENTS ENTERED INTO AND TO BE PERFORMED ENTIRELY WITHIN CALIFORNIA BY CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS.

  
 9.6 Forum and Venue. Any judicial action or proceeding
arising hereunder or relating hereto shall be brought in, and the Parties hereby consent to the exclusive, personal jurisdiction of, the Superior Court of the State California, County of Marin, or in the United States District Court for the Northern
District of California in San Francisco, California. 
  
 9.7
Injunctive Relief. It is understood and agreed that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement either Party’s breach of confidentiality obligations or provisions relating to proprietary rights will cause irreparable damage
for which recovery of money damages would be inadequate, and that the other Party will therefore be entitled to seek timely, injunctive relief to protect such Party’s rights under this Agreement in addition to any and all remedies available at
law. 
  
 9.8 Waiver. No failure on the part of a Party to
exercise any power, right, privilege, or remedy under this Agreement, and no delay on the part of any Party in exercising any power, right, privilege, or remedy under this Agreement, will operate as a waiver of such power, right, privilege, or
remedy; and no single or partial exercise of any such power, right, privilege, or remedy will preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right, privilege, or remedy. 
  
 (a) No Party shall be deemed to have waived any claim arising from this
Agreement, or any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, unless the waiver of such claim, power, right, privilege or remedy is expressly set forth in a written instrument duly executed and delivered on behalf of such Party; and any
such waiver will not be applicable or have any effect except in the specific instance in which it is given. 
  
 9.9 Assignment. Autodesk may assign all of its assets and other rights acquired hereunder in their entirety and in whole, and in part, provided the
successor agrees in writing to be bound by all of the obligations set forth in this Agreement in the same manner as Autodesk. Avatech shall have no right to assign or transfer this Agreement, or any of its rights hereunder, without the prior
permission of Autodesk, which may be granted or withheld at Autodesk’s sole discretion. Any assignment in violation of this Section 9.9 is null and void. 
  

9.10 Severability. If, for any reason, a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of this Agreement, or portion thereof, to be
invalid or unenforceable, such provision of the Agreement will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible so as to effect the intent of the Parties, and the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect. The Parties agree to
negotiate in good faith an enforceable substitute provision for any unenforceable provision that most nearly achieves the intent and economic effect of the unenforceable provision. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a court of competent jurisdiction
determines that any restriction on any license granted herein is invalid or unenforceable, then the license grants to which such restriction relates shall terminate automatically. 
  
 9.11 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the Exhibits hereto) sets forth the entire understanding of the
Parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between the Parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof. 
  
 9.12 Amendments. This Agreement may not be amended, modified, altered or supplemented other than by means of a
written instrument duly executed and delivered on behalf of Avatech and Autodesk. 
  
 9.13 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, which, when taken together, shall constitute one agreement. 
  
  

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties, by their duly authorized representatives, have executed this Agreement
as of the Effective Date.

     1.     Win currently owns a 100% working interest in the lands and leases described as the “Purchase Lands” in Schedule “A” attached hereto. In addition Win 

              controls the lands described as the “Option Lands” in Schedule “A”

 

     2.     Delta shall pay the sum of five hundred ninety seven thousand two hundred and sixty three ($597,263 US) dollars (US Funds) (hereinafter referred to as 

             the “Purchase Price”) to Win to acquire 20% of Win’s interest in the Purchase Lands subject only to the encumbrances shown in Schedule “A”.

 

     3.     The Purchase Price shall be payable to Win in the form of a certified cheque and shall be payable and received by Win on or before December 31, 

             2004.

 

     4.     Upon receipt of the Purchase Price from Delta by Win, Win shall prepare and circulate for execution by Delta a Joint Operating Agreement incorporating 

              the 1981 Operating Procedure together with the 1996 PASC Accounting Procedure utilizing standard rates, elections and amendments. The Joint 

              Operating Agreement shall govern all operations on the Purchase Lands between the parties hereto. The parties hereto agree in advance that the 1981

             Procedure shall utilize elective 2401 (B) establishing a right of first refusal on subsequent dispositions by the parties hereto.

 

     5.     Win shall be named Initial Operator under the Joint Operating Agreement and shall conduct all operations with respect to the Purchase Lands in 

              accordance therewith.

 

     6.     Delta shall have an option exercisable in writing to acquire a 15% working interest in the Option Lands on the following terms and conditions:

 

             a)     In the event Win proposes the drilling of a well on the Option Lands, Delta shall have the option to participate in the drilling of the well by paying 

                     20% of the cost to drill, complete, cap or abandon the well. Upon completion or abandonment, Delta shall have earned a 15% interest in the 

                     section on which the well was drilled as well as 1 additional section of Option Lands selected by Win.

 

             b)     The election of Delta to participate in the drilling of a well under this clause shall be in writing within fifteen days of receipt of a notice by Win of its

             c)     This option shall terminate on December 31, 2006.

 

             d)     Failure of Delta to respond to a notice provided pursuant to clause 6 (b) shall be deemed an election not to participate in the proposed well and its 

                       right to earn an interest in the two sections listed in the Notice shall terminate.

 

             e)     Delta acknowledges that the Option Lands are subject to a third party agreement and agree to be bound by the terms thereof as if named a party 

                      thereto.

 

     7.     The Effective Date of this transaction shall be the date on which Win has received the Purchase Price.

 

     8.     The Purchase Lands include a well located in Lsd 7 of Section 16 in Township 9, Range 2 W5M (hereinafter referred to as the “test well”) which has 

              recently been drilled by Win. Win and Delta agree that Win
