Conveyance is amended by amending the phrase at the beginning thereof that
presently reads "means all costs and expenses paid or incurred" to read "means

     8. Section 2.4 of the Conveyance is amended in its entirety to read as
follows:

          Section 2.4. Non-Cost-Bearing Interest. The Production Payment shall
     be free and clear of, and Grantee shall have no liability for, any
     Operating Costs or Direct Taxes other than PP Severance Taxes. All
     Operating Costs and Direct Taxes (other than PP Severance Taxes) shall be
     borne by the Retained Interests and paid by Grantor promptly, on or before
     the dates the same become due and owing (except to the extent payment
     thereof is discharged or the time for payment is extended pursuant to the
     Bankruptcy Court Order), and Grantor will promptly (and in any event within
     10 days after receiving any notice or statement for the same) reimburse
     Grantee for any Operating Costs or Direct Taxes (other than PP Severance
     Taxes) that Grantee may elect to pay upon Grantor's failure to do so. In
     addition, Grantor will promptly (and in any event within 30 days after
     receiving any notice or statement for the same) pay all Reimbursable
     Expenses which have been incurred and are unpaid and reimburse Grantee or
     Beneficiaries for any Reimbursable Expenses which have been paid by Grantee
     or Beneficiaries. Each amount which is to be paid by Grantor pursuant to
     this Section 2.4 which is instead paid by Grantee or Beneficiaries shall
     bear interest at the Agreed Rate on each day from and including the date of
     such payment until but not including the date repaid by Grantor.

     9. Section 3.1(b) of the Conveyance is amended in its entirety to read as
follows:

          (b) promptly pay all Operating Costs and Direct Taxes (other than PP
     Severance Taxes) with respect to the Subject Interests (except to the
     extent that (i) Grantor is contesting any such Operating Costs or Direct
     Taxes in good faith by appropriate proceedings, (ii) Grantor has reserved
     adequate funds for the payment thereof, and (iii) if any such Operating
     Costs or Direct Taxes are owed to any lessor of any lease under which any
     of the Subject Interests are held, failure to win such contest would not
     result in termination or cancellation of such lease);
