6.4	No Additional Representations or Warranties

Vendor makes no representations or warranties to Purchaser other than those expressly enumerated in Clauses 6.1 and 6.2.  Specifically, Vendor does not warrant title to the Assets or make representations or warranties with respect to:

any estimates of the value of the Assets or the revenues applicable to future production of Petroleum Substances from the Lands;

any engineering, geological or other interpretations or economic evaluations respecting the Assets;

(d)

the rates of production of Petroleum Substances from the Lands; and

(e)

the quality, condition, marketability or serviceability of the Assets or their suitability of use for any purpose.

Without restricting the generality of the foregoing, Purchaser acknowledges and confirms to Vendor that it has made its own independent investigation, analysis, evaluation and inspection of the Assets and the state and condition thereof, and that Purchaser has relied solely on such investigation, analysis, evaluation and inspection as to its assessment of the condition, quantum and value of the Assets except to the extent a representation and warranty has been made by Vendor that expressly applies with respect thereto.

7.1	Preferential Rights of Purchase

(a)

If any of the Assets is subject to a Right of First Refusal, or if the disposition herein requires the consent of any third party which can be unreasonably withheld, Vendor shall comply with the terms of the provisions relating to any Right of First Refusal or consent and shall promptly serve all such notices as are required under such provisions, in accordance with the terms and conditions of any such Right of First Refusal and consent.  Unless Purchaser otherwise agrees, each such notice shall include a request for a waiver of any Right of First Refusal to purchase any of the Assets and for the granting of any consent that may be required.  From time to time, at Purchaser's request, Vendor shall advise Purchaser of the status of any consent or Right of First Refusal.  At Closing, Vendor shall deliver to Purchaser evidence that all such Rights of First Refusal have been complied with and either have been exercised or waived or have expired by the effluxion of time.

(b)

Within two (2) days after the execution of this Agreement, Purchaser, acting reasonably, shall advise Vendor in writing of Purchaser's bona fide allocation of a portion of the Purchase Price to the Assets which are subject to the Right of First Refusal and except if modified by agreement or an Alberta court of competent jurisdiction by reason of a dispute, such bona fide allocation shall be used for the purposes of this Clause 7.1.

(c)

If a Right of First Refusal is exercised, Vendor shall comply with such Right of First Refusal, and shall transfer those of the Assets which are subject to the Right of First Refusal to all holders of the Right of First Refusal which exercised their right.

(d)

If a holder of any Right of First Refusal to purchase any of the Assets exercises such right, that fact shall not be considered a Title Defect and the Assets subject to such Right of First Refusal exercised in accordance with its terms shall cease to be subject to this Agreement and all definitions set forth herein shall be and shall be deemed to be amended accordingly, the Purchase Price and allocation set forth in Clause  2.3 shall be reduced in accordance with the value ascribed to same in Subclause 7.1(b), (or the value modified by agreement or an Alberta court of competent jurisdiction should that be the case), and the Parties shall proceed with Closing for the Assets which remain unaffected by such exercised Rights of First Refusal.

(e)

If a holder of any Right of First Refusal exercises a Right of First Refusal and is then unable or unwilling to enter in to a conveyance agreement with Vendor to acquire the relevant Assets, Purchaser shall accept a conveyance of such Assets for the amount that would have been payable by the purchaser of such Assets pursuant to Subclause 7.1(b) and under the same terms and conditions as provided in this Agreement, including provision for the appropriate Section 116 Withholding Amount for such Assets, provided that Purchaser shall not be required to accept such a conveyance more than one hundred and eighty (180) days following the Closing Date. Any conveyance to Purchaser pursuant to this Subclause 7.1(e) shall be subject to the rights of any other Right of First Refusal holders who have also exercised their Right of First Refusal with respect to the same Assets and who, accordingly, have a right to acquire their proportionate share of such Assets.

(f)

Purchaser shall be liable to Vendor for and shall in addition indemnify and hold Vendor harmless from and against all Losses which arise from any matter or thing occurring or arising, through or attributable to the allocations provided by Purchaser to Vendor for the purposes of this Article 7, whether or not such allocations are reasonable.

8.1	Title Review

Vendor shall, subject to the Regulations and all contractual and fiduciary obligations and limits, at Vendor's office during normal business hours, provide Purchaser and its nominees with reasonable access to Vendor's records, files and documents including the Leases and applicable operating agreements, well licences, overriding royalty agreements and production sale contracts, which directly relate to the Assets, for Purchaser's review of the Assets and of Vendor's title thereto.

8.2	Title Defects

No less than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser may give Vendor written notice of Title Defects, which written notice shall include a description of each Title Defect and the Assets affected thereby; the value allocated by Purchaser, acting reasonably, to each affected Asset; and the amount, in Purchaser's reasonable opinion, by which the value of each affected Asset has been reduced by the Title Defect.  Failure to include a Title Defect in a written notice shall be deemed to be a waiver of such Title Defect for the purposes of this Clause 8.2.

8.3	Vendor's Rectification

Prior to the Closing Date, Vendor shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to cure or rectify the Title Defects of which Purchaser has given notice pursuant to Clause 8.2.  Insofar as the Title Defects described in Purchaser's written notice have not been cured, to Purchaser's reasonable satisfaction, not less than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date:

(a)

where the cumulative value of the affected Assets is less than Five percent (5%) of the Purchase Price, Purchaser shall be obligated to complete the purchase of the Assets without adjustment of the Purchase Price on account of Title Defects;

(b)

where the cumulative value of the affected Assets is Five percent (5%) or more of the Purchase Price, the Purchase Price shall be reduced by such amount and Purchaser shall be obligated to proceed to purchase the Assets at the reduced Purchase Price; or

(c)

where the cumulative value of the affected Assets is Twenty percent (20%) or more of the Purchase Price, either Purchaser or Vendor may terminate this Agreement by providing written notice to the other Party one (1) Business Day prior to the Closing Date, in which case the Parties shall have no further obligation to each other, except for obligations arising pursuant to Article 11.  If neither Party provides such written notice to terminate, the Purchase Price shall be reduced by such amount and Purchaser shall be obligated to proceed to purchase the Assets at the reduced Purchase Price.

8.4	Value Disputes

If Vendor disagrees with Purchaser's value allocated to an affected Asset or the amount by which the value of each affected Asset has been reduced by each uncured Title Defect according to Purchaser's allocations in Clause 8.2, the Parties shall forthwith meet in good faith to discuss the issue.  If after such a meeting the issue has not been resolved or if a Party refuses to meet to discuss the issue, the Parties shall refer the issue to a mutually-agreeable independent engineering consulting firm (the "Title Valuation Referee") for determination.  The Parties shall provide all materials relevant to the issue to the Title Valuation Referee within two (2) days of the issue being referred to the Title Valuation Referee.  The Parties shall direct the Title Valuation Referee to provide its decision regarding such issue within five (5) days after its receipt of all relevant materials.  The Title Valuation Referee shall act as an expert for the limited purpose of determining the specific issues submitted and may not award damages or penalties to either Party with respect to any matter.  Vendor and Purchaser shall equally share the Title Valuation Referee's costs, fees and expenses (including reasonable legal fees).  The Title Valuation Referee's decision shall be given in writing to the Parties, shall be binding upon and non-appealable by the Parties, and shall not be subject to further review, audit or arbitration.

8.5	Environmental Review

Vendor shall, subject to the Regulations and all contractual and fiduciary obligations and limits, provide Purchaser and its nominees with a reasonable opportunity to inspect the Assets at Purchaser's sole cost, risk and expense, insofar as Vendor can reasonably provide such access to the Assets.  Purchaser may conduct an environmental assessment of the Assets not operated by Purchaser or an Affiliate thereof.  Purchaser shall pay the costs of the environmental review.  The environmental review shall be completed no later than seven (7) Business Days prior to the Closing Date and shall be undertaken in a manner that does not unduly interfere with operations. Vendor shall provide assistance to Purchaser in gaining access to any Assets not operated by Vendor which Purchaser wishes to review, by making a request to the relevant operator in that regard.

8.6	Environmental Defects

Purchaser may give Vendor notice of Environmental Defects from time to time as soon as is reasonably practicable after Purchaser's determination thereof.  No later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser may give Vendor written notice of Environmental Defects, which written notice shall include a description of each Environmental Defect and the Assets affected thereby; the value allocated by Purchaser, acting reasonably, to each affected Asset; and the amount, in Purchaser's reasonable opinion, by which the value of each affected Asset has been reduced by the Environmental Defect.  Failure to include an Environmental Defect in a written notice shall be deemed to be a waiver of such Environmental Defect for the purposes of this Clause 8.6.

8.7	Vendor's Rectification

Prior to the Closing Date, Vendor shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to cure or rectify the Environmental Defects of which Purchaser gives notice pursuant to Clause 8.6.  Insofar as the Environmental Defects described in Purchaser's written notice have not been cured to Purchaser's reasonable satisfaction two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date:

(a)

where the cumulative value of the affected Assets is less than Five percent (5%) of the Purchase Price, Purchaser shall be obligated to complete the purchase of the Assets without adjustment of the Purchase Price on account of Title Defects;

(b)

where the cumulative value of the affected Assets is Five percent (5%) or more of the Purchase Price, the Purchase Price shall be reduced by such amount and Purchaser shall be obligated to proceed to purchase the Assets at the reduced Purchase Price; or

(c)

where the cumulative value of the affected Assets is Twenty percent (20%) or more of the Purchase Price, either Purchaser or Vendor may terminate this Agreement by providing written notice to the other Party one (1) Business Day prior to the Closing Date, in which case the Parties shall have no further obligation to each other, except for obligations arising pursuant to Article 11.  If neither Party provides such written notice to terminate, the Purchase Price shall be reduced by such amount and Purchaser shall be obligated to proceed to purchase the Assets at the reduced Purchase Price.

8.8	Value Disputes

If Vendor disagrees with Purchaser's value allocated to an affected Asset or the amount by which the value of each affected Asset has been reduced by each uncured Environmental Defect according to Purchaser's allocations in Clause 8.2, the Parties shall forthwith meet in good faith to discuss the issue.  If after such a meeting the issue has not been resolved or if a Party refuses to meet to discuss the issue, the Parties shall refer the issue to a mutually-agreeable independent environmental consulting firm (the "Environmental Valuation Referee") for determination.  The Parties shall provide all materials relevant to the issue to the Environmental Valuation Referee within three (3) Business Days of the issue being referred to the Environmental Valuation Referee.  The Parties shall direct the Environmental Referee to provide its decision regarding such issue within five (5) Business Days after its receipt of all relevant materials.  The Environmental Referee shall act as an expert for the limited purpose of determining the specific issues submitted and may not award damages or penalties to either Party with respect to any matter.  Vendor and Purchaser shall equally share the Environmental Referee's costs, fees and expenses (including reasonable legal fees).  The determination of the Environmental Referee's decision shall be given in writing to the Parties, shall be binding upon and non-appealable by the Parties, and shall not be subject to further review, audit or arbitration.
