No effort to recover the amount of the Loss related to such claim shall be made by Buyer pursuant to Section 11.3.2 while such defense is still being made until the earlier of (a) the resolution of such claim by the Seller or the Shareholders with the claimant, or (b) the termination of the defense by the Seller or the Shareholders against such claim or the failure of the Seller or the Shareholders to prosecute such defense in good faith in an expeditious and diligent manner.

If the Seller and the Shareholders, within a period of thirty (30) days after the giving of such notice by Buyer, do not give written notice to Buyer announcing their intention to contest such assertion of Buyer (such notice by the Seller and the Shareholders being hereinafter called the “Contest Notice”), such assertion of Buyer shall be deemed accepted and the amount of the Loss shall be deemed established. If, however, a Contest Notice is given to Buyer within such 30-day period, then the contested assertion of a Loss shall be settled by arbitration to be held in Dallas, Texas in accordance with the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect. The determination of the arbitrator(s) shall be delivered in writing to the Seller, the Shareholders and Buyer and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon all of the parties hereto, and the amount of the Loss, if any, determined to exist by the arbitrator(s) shall be deemed established.

11.3.3 Buyer, the Shareholders and the Seller may agree in writing, at any time, as to the existence and amount of a Loss, and, upon the execution of such agreement, such Loss shall be deemed established.

11.5.2 Sellers shall not be liable for the initial $100,000.00 of Losses incurred under the Agreements. This $100,000.00 amount is a deductible and not a threshold; and

Seller acknowledges the Purchase Price Units are “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act and have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and thereafter must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available.

THE UNITS EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”‘) OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION AND ARE “RESTRICTED SECURITIES” AS DEFINED BY RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT. THE UNITS MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR DISTRIBUTED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT REGISTERING THE UNITS UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE REQUIRING SUCH REGISTRATION, OR IN LIEU THEREOF, AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, WHICH OPINION IS SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER OF THE UNITS, TO THE EFFECT THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACTS.

12.2.3 Except under certain limited circumstances, the above restrictions on the transfer of the Purchase Price Units will also apply to any and all Common Units or other securities issued or otherwise acquired with respect to such units, including, without limitation, securities issued or acquired as a result of any dividend, split or exchange or any distribution of securities pursuant to any corporate reorganization, reclassification or similar event.

12.2.4 Rio Vista and its transfer agent may refuse to effect a transfer of any of the Purchase Price Units by the Seller or any of their successors, personal representatives or assigns otherwise than as contemplated hereby in this Agreement.

12.3 Registration of Purchase Price Units. Rio Vista will use commercially reasonable efforts to file at its own expense with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), within ninety (90) days following the Closing, a registration statement on Form S-3 or, if Form S-3 is unavailable, on any other appropriate form (the “Registration Statement”) with respect to the resale of the Purchase Price Units and any Additional Units (as defined below) and to have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable thereafter. Rio Vista will use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement until two (2) years following the Closing or until the resale of all Purchase Price Units (and any Additional Units) pursuant to the Registration Statement, whichever first occurs. Seller (or its designee for the Purchase Price Units as identified in Schedule 1) shall also have piggy back rights to participate on a para parsu basis in any additional S-3 filing Rio Vista pursues post-closing until all Purchase Price Units are registered.

12.3.1 Amendments. Rio Vista shall also at its own expense: (i) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments to the Registration Statement, and such supplements to the related prospectus, as may be required in order to comply with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act; (ii) promptly furnish to the holders of Purchase Price Units (and any Additional Units) such numbers of copies of a prospectus conforming to the requirements of the Securities Act as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Purchase Price Units (and any Additional Units) covered by the Registration Statement; and (iii) use reasonable efforts to register and qualify the Purchase Price Units (and any Additional Units) under the securities laws of such states as the holders of Purchase Price Units (and any Additional Units) may reasonably request; provided, however, that Rio Vista shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any of such states.

12.3.2 Indemnification. Rio Vista and the holders of the Purchase Price Units (and any Additional Units) agree to indemnify each other, to the extent permitted by law, against all damages suffered by the other as a result of (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact made by the party and contained in the Registration Statement or in the related prospectus or preliminary prospectus (or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto); or (ii) any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

12.4 Cooperation by Seller. The Seller will cooperate with Rio Vista as reasonably requested by Rio Vista in connection with the preparation and filing of any Registration Statement. Each of the Seller will furnish to Rio Vista such information regarding itself, the common units held by it, and the intended method of disposition of such common units as shall be reasonably required to cause the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and will execute and deliver such documents in connection with the Registration Statement as Rio Vista may reasonably request. Each of the Seller will, upon receipt of notice from Rio Vista of any event requiring suspension of the use of the prospectus included as part of the Registration Statement, immediately discontinue disposition of common units pursuant to the Registration Statement until Seller’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus or receipt of notice that no supplement or amendment is required. Each of the Seller covenants and agrees that it will comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 as applicable to it or comply with the provisions of an exemption from such prospectus delivery requirements in connection with sales of common units pursuant to the Registration Statement.

12.5 Value of Purchase Price Units; Alternate Payment. On the date the Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC (the “Registration Date”), if the closing price of Rio Vista’s common units as reported by the NASDAQ Stock Market (the “Registration Date Price”) is less than eighty percent (80%) of such price as so reported on the Closing Date (the “Closing Date Price”), Seller shall have the option for a period of thirty (30) days to rescind the transactions contemplated by this Agreement unless Buyer agrees to deliver to the Seller either (i) additional common units of Rio Vista (the “Additional Units”) in such number as necessary so that the total value of the Purchase Price Units and the Additional Units, in each case based on the Registration Date Price, is at least eighty percent (80%) of the value of the Purchase Price Units based on the Closing Date Price or (ii) additional cash (the “Additional Cash”) in such amount as necessary so that the total value of the Purchase Price Units, based on the Registration Date Price, together with the Additional Cash, is at least eighty percent (80%) of the value of the Purchase Price Units based on the Closing Date Price. In lieu of delivery of Additional Units or Additional Cash to supplement the Purchase Price Units, Buyer shall have the alternate option to pay the entire value of the Purchase Price Units based on the Closing Date Price in cash (the “All Cash Payment”), provided that Buyer makes the All Cash Payment in full within ten (10) business days following an election by Seller to rescind as provided above. Upon delivery of the All Cash Payment to the Seller, all Purchase Price Units shall be returned to Buyer and/or cancelled by Rio Vista.

13. Further Assurances. Buyer, Company and the Seller agree to execute and deliver all such other instruments and take all such other action as any party may reasonably request from time to time, before or after Closing and without payment of further consideration, in order to effectuate the transactions provided for herein.

19.5 Binding Nature of Agreement; Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns, except that no party may assign or transfer its rights or obligations under or interest in this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto; provided that Buyer may assign its rights, and interest in this Agreement to any Affiliate of Buyer so long as Buyer remains jointly and severally liable for the performance of all Buyer obligations under this agreement.

19.6 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. The terms and provisions of this Agreement are intended solely for the benefit of each party hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and, except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, it is not the intention of the parties to confer third-party beneficiary rights upon any other person.

19.7 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original as against any party whose signature appears thereon, and all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. If executed in multiple counterparts, this Agreement shall become binding when two or more counterparts hereto, individually or taken together, bear the signatures of all of the parties reflected hereon as the signatories. Facsimile signatures to this Agreement shall have the same legal effect as original signatures.

19.8 Provisions Separable. The provisions of this Agreement are independent of and separable from each other, and no provision shall be affected or rendered invalid or unenforceable by virtue of the fact that any other provision may be invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part for any reason.

19.9 [Intentionally omitted.]

19.10 Amendments and Modifications. This Agreement may not be amended or modified other than by an agreement in writing signed by all of the parties; provided, however, nothing shall preclude any two or more parties from agreeing in writing to a modification of their rights and duties with respect to each other, but no such modification shall be binding on parties to this Agreement who have not consented in writing thereto.

19.11 Section Headings and References. The Section headings in this Agreement are for convenience only; they form no part of this Agreement and shall not affect its interpretation. Unless otherwise stated specifically, references herein to Sections shall be to Sections of this Agreement.

19.12 Interpretation. Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed, as the context indicates, to be followed by the words “but not limited to.” Words used herein, regardless of the number and gender specifically used, shall be deemed and construed to include any other number, singular or plural, and any other gender, masculine, feminine or neuter, as the context indicates is appropriate.

19.13 Expenses of the Parties. Each party shall bear the expenses incurred by such party in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated.

19.14 Dispute Resolution.

19.14.1 Mediation. If a dispute arises from or relates to this Agreement or the breach thereof, and if the dispute cannot be settled through direct discussions, the parties agree to endeavor first to attempt to settle the dispute by mediation administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Mediation Procedures before resorting to arbitration. The place of mediation shall be Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. The requirements of filing a notice of claim with respect to the dispute submitted to mediation shall be suspended until the conclusion of the mediation process.

19.14.2 Arbitration. Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach thereof that is not resolved following mediation pursuant to Section 19.14.1 shall be decided by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The place of arbitration shall be Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Either party may apply to the arbitrator seeking injunctive relief until the arbitration award is rendered or the controversy is otherwise resolved. Either party also may, without waiving any remedy under this Agreement, seek under the American Arbitration Association’s Commercial Arbitration Rules’ Optional Rules for Emergency Measures of Protection any interim or provisional relief that is necessary to protect the rights or property of that party, pending the establishment of the arbitral tribunal (or pending the arbitral tribunal’s determination of the merits of the controversy). Consistent with the expedited nature of arbitration, each party will, upon the written request of the other party, promptly provide the other with copies of documents relevant to the issues raised by any claim or counterclaim. Any dispute regarding discovery, or the relevance or scope thereof, shall be determined by the arbitrator(s), which determination shall be conclusive. All discovery shall be completed within 60 days following the appointment of the arbitrator(s). The award of the arbitrator(s) shall include written findings of fact and conclusions of law.

19.15 Enforcement. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur if any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly, it is agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement under the American Arbitration Association’s Commercial Arbitration Rules’ Optional Rules for Emergency Measures of Protection, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under this Agreement. In addition, for purposes of this Section 19.15, each of the parties consents to the personal jurisdiction of the AAA.

19.16 Recovery of Fees by Prevailing Party. In the event of arbitration or litigation to enforce or interpret the provisions of this Agreement, the non-prevailing party shall pay the other party its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses (including expert witness fees) in such amount as the arbitrator or court shall determine. In addition, such non-prevailing party shall pay reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by the prevailing party in enforcing, or on appeal from, a judgment in favor of the prevailing party. The preceding sentence is intended by the parties hereto to be severable from the other provisions of this Agreement and to survive and not be merged into such judgment.

19.17 Schedules. The disclosures in Schedules 2.1 — 2.27 shall be deemed to relate only to the representations and warranties in the Section of the Agreement to which they expressly relate and not to any other representation or warranty in this Agreement. In the event of any inconsistency between the statements in the body of this Agreement and those in the Schedules (other than an exception expressly set forth as such in the Schedules with respect to a specifically identified representation or warranty), the statements in the body of this Agreement will control.

19.18 Time of the Essence. With regard to all dates and time periods set forth or referred to in this Agreement, time is of the essence.

19.19 Construction. The construction of this Agreement shall not take into consideration the party who drafted or whose representative drafted any portion of this Agreement, and no canon of construction shall be applied that resolves ambiguities against the drafter of a document.
