                      Barrow-Shaver Resources Company,
                                 Appellee.

                    On Appeal from the 7th Judicial District Court
                                Smith County, Texas
                               Cause No. 12-2565-A

      AGREED MOTION TO EXTEND DEADLINE FOR SELECTING MEDIATOR

TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS:

      On April 14, 2015, the Court issued an Order Referring Case to Mediation

that required the parties, among other things, to notify the Court in writing of any

agreed mediator within seven days of the Order.

      Counsel for both parties have been researching and discussing possible

mediators and logistical issues relating to mediation since that time and believe they

can reach an agreement as to a mediator and place for mediation for this matter, but

need more time to do so. The parties anticipate that they will be able to inform the
Court of an agreement by the end of the week, but want to insure sufficient time to

work out the details. The parties therefore jointly and respectfully request that the

Court grant them an extension of time of seven days to comply with the Court’s

Order as to the written notification of an agreed mediator.

                              CONCLUSION AND PRAYER
      For these reasons, Appellant Carrizo Oil & Gas, Inc. and Appellee Barrow-

Shaver Resources Company request that the Court: (i) grant this Agreed Motion to

Extend Deadline for Selecting Mediator; (ii) order that the deadline for complying

with the Court’s April 14, 2015, Order requiring the parties to notify it in writing as

to an agreed mediator is extended to April 28, 2015; and (iii) grant such other and

further relief to which the parties are entitled.

                                            Respectfully submitted,

                                           /s/ Marcy Hogan Greer
