          (b) Remedies.

     (i) Subject to Section 1.04(b)(ii), in the event of a breach of the foregoing warranty for any Subject Interest, Assignee’s sole remedy shall be to receive payment on each applicable Quarterly Payment Date, out of Assignor’s Net Share of Gas from other Development Wells in excess of that subject to the Royalty Interest and the royalty interest created pursuant to the Perpetual PUD Conveyance (the “Assignor Retained Gas”), subject to offset as provided below and without interest (except such interest payable under this Conveyance on payments made after the applicable due date as described in Section 5.02 below), of an amount equal to the difference between (x) Assignee Gas (or the proceeds from the sale thereof) that Assignee would have received with respect to such Development Well in the applicable Computation Period if such warranty had not been breached and (y) Assignee Gas (or the proceeds from the sale thereof) that Assignee actually received during that Computation Period with respect to that Development Well, to the extent such difference is attributable to the breach of the warranty, but not to the extent that such difference is attributable to any other cause, and any such amounts of Assignor Retained Gas shall be treated as Assignee Gas.

It shall not be a violation of such standard of conduct for Assignor (i) to sell Assignor’s Net Share of Gas or Assignee Gas to an Affiliate pursuant to any gas purchase agreement or contract, or (ii) to delegate some or all of Assignor’s duties as Assignee’s agent and representative to its Affiliates (so long as such Affiliates perform in good faith and in accordance with the Reasonably Prudent Operator Standard), with Assignor remaining liable to Assignee for the performance of such Affiliates.

          (e) Termination of Authority. Assignor may not resign as Assignee’s agent and representative without the prior written consent of Assignee, except that Assignor may resign as Assignee’s agent and representative without such consent with respect to any Subject Interests assigned, sold, transferred, or conveyed by Assignor in accordance with the terms of this Conveyance. If such sale is made subject to the Royalty Interest, Assignor must cause the purchaser to assume the duties of Assignee’s agent and representative with respect to the Subject Interests acquired by that purchaser and to be bound by the provisions of this Article IV.

     Section 4.03 Delivery of Subject Gas. Assignor (whether or not it is serving as Assignee’s agent and representative) shall deliver or cause to be delivered Assignor’s Net Share of Gas (including Assignee Gas) to the purchasers thereof into the pipelines to which the Development Wells producing such Gas are connected.

     Section 4.04 Processing. Assignor may process Assignor’s Net Share of Gas (including Assignee Gas) to remove liquid and liquefiable hydrocarbons and may commit any of the Subject Interests (including the Royalty Interest attributable thereto) to an agreement for processing minerals (pursuant to which, for example, the plant owner or operator receives a portion of the Subject Gas or plant products therefrom or proceeds of the sale thereof as a fee for processing), so long as Assignor enters into such processing arrangements in good faith and in accordance with the Reasonably Prudent Operator Standard. Assignee shall be bound by such arrangements, shall permit Assignor’s Net Share of Gas (including Assignee Gas) to be processed by Assignor or its contractor, and shall have no right to any liquid or liquefiable hydrocarbons obtained by such processor or to the proceeds from the sale thereof. Assignee shall not, however, be personally liable for any costs or risks associated with such processing operations, but Assignee shall indirectly suffer the Btu reduction and volume reductions associated with processing through corresponding reductions in the Btu content and volumes of Assignee Gas.

ARTICLE V
PAYMENT

     Section 5.01 Obligation to Pay.

          (a) Quarterly Payment Amount. On each Quarterly Payment Date, Assignor shall prepare, in good faith, an estimate of the cash to be paid to Assignee from (A) all of the proceeds (including any interest earned thereon and payable to Assignee pursuant to Section 5.01(b) or Section 5.01(e)) to be paid to Assignee from the sale of Assignee Gas produced during such Computation Period; plus (B) all of the proceeds (including any interest

earned thereon and payable to Assignee pursuant to Section 5.01(b) or Section 5.01(e)) to be paid to Assignee from the sale of Assignee Gas, if any, produced during any prior Computation Periods, to the extent not previously taken into account for purposes of determining a Quarterly Payment Amount for any prior Computation Periods, as such sum may be (x) increased or decreased as a result of any adjustments to the estimates that were previously made pursuant to this Section 5.01(a) for any prior Computation Periods that are necessary to accurately report the proceeds from the sale of Assignee Gas for such prior Computation Periods, (y) increased by the amount of any damages payable to Assignee under Section 1.04(b) (subject to the right of set-off in Section 1.04(c)) during the most recently completed Computation Period prior to such Quarterly Payment Date and (z) decreased by any Reserved Amounts as provided in Section 5.04 below (“Quarterly Payment Amount”).

          (b) The Obligation. After each Computation Period and on or before the Quarterly Payment Date for that Computation Period, Assignor shall tender to Assignee the Quarterly Payment Amount with respect to the applicable Computation Period. With respect to the final Computation Period, Assignor shall tender to Assignee all unexpended Reserved Amounts (together with any interest accrued thereon).

          (c) Quarterly Payment Date. “Quarterly Payment Date” for each Computation Period means the thirtieth (30^th) day after the end of such Computation Period or, for the last Computation Period, the thirtieth (30^th) day after the Termination Date. If such day is not a Business Day, the Quarterly Payment Date shall be the next Business Day.

          (d) No Segregated Account. All amounts received by Assignor from the sale of Assignor’s Net Share of Gas and Assignee Gas, as applicable, for any Computation Period shall be held by Assignor in one of its general bank accounts and Assignor will not be required to maintain a segregated account for such funds.

          (e) Disputed Proceeds. If Assignor receives any amounts of money from the sale of Assignee Gas that is subject to controversy or, in the reasonable opinion of Assignor, possible controversy, Assignor shall promptly deposit the money with a Third Person escrow agent in a segregated interest-bearing account. Such amount shall not be treated as a portion of Assignee Proceeds so long as it remains with such escrow agent, but shall be treated as a portion of Assignee Proceeds, along with the accrued interest, when received from such escrow agent and paid over to Assignee.

     Section 5.02 Interest on Past Due Payments.

          (a) Obligation to Pay. Any Assignee Proceeds or other amounts of money not paid by Assignor to Assignee when due shall bear, and Assignor will pay, interest at the Prime Interest Rate on the overdue amount commencing on the sixth (6^th) day after such due date until such amount is paid.

          (b) Definition. “Prime Interest Rate” means the lesser of (i) the rate of interest per annum publicly announced from time to time by The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. as its “prime rate” in effect at its principal office in New York City (each change in the Prime Rate to be effective on the date such change is publicly announced), with the

understanding that such bank’s “prime rate” may be one of several base rates, may serve as a basis upon which effective rates are from time to time calculated for loans making reference thereto, and may not be the lowest of such bank’s base rates or (ii) the maximum rate of interest permitted under applicable Legal Requirement.

     Section 5.03 Overpayments and Refunds.

          (a) Overpayments. If Assignor ever pays Assignee more than the amount of money then due and payable to Assignee under this Conveyance, Assignee shall not be obligated to return the overpayment, but Assignor may at any time thereafter deduct from Assignee Proceeds and retain for its own account an amount equal to the overpayment.

          (b) Refunds. If Assignor is ever legally obligated to pay any Third Person, including any gas purchaser or Governmental Authority, any refund, interest, penalty, or other amount of money, because any payment of Assignee Proceeds received by Assignor for the account of Assignee exceeded, or allegedly exceeded, the amount due or lawful under any applicable contract, Legal Requirement, or other obligation, Assignor may thereafter deduct from Assignee Proceeds and retain for its own account an amount equal to such payment.

     Section 5.04 Reserved Amounts. At any time and from time to time under this Conveyance and in accordance with the Reasonably Prudent Operator Standard, Assignor may set aside from Assignee Proceeds amounts determined in good faith to economically accrue for a Computation Period with respect to known or anticipated costs or liabilities (the “Reserved Amounts”) which may be incurred in future Computation Periods with respect to Taxes assessed or levied with respect to a time period in excess of a calendar quarter. As Reserved Amounts are expended by Assignor to cover applicable Taxes in a Computation Period, Chargeable Costs shall be reduced in such Computation Period by an amount equal to the Reserved Amounts so expended. In the event that Assignor overestimates the cost of any Taxes for which it has set aside Reserved Amounts, the excess amount shall be applied against any other Chargeable Costs (which shall be reduced by an amount equal to such excess Reserved Amounts so expended), or paid as Assignee Proceeds on the Quarterly Payment Date following the Computation Period in which it is determined that Assignor has set aside excess Reserved Amounts.

ARTICLE VI
RECORDS AND REPORTS

     Section 6.01 Books, Records, and Accounts.

          (a) Obligation to Maintain. Assignor shall maintain true and correct books, records, and accounts of (i) all transactions required or permitted by this Conveyance and (ii) the financial information necessary to effect such transactions, including the financial information needed to calculate each installment of Assignee Proceeds.

          (b) Right of Inspection. Assignee or its representative, at Assignee’s expense, may inspect and copy such books, records, and accounts in the offices of Assignor during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice.

     Section 6.02 Statements.

          (a) Quarterly Statements. On each Quarterly Payment Date, Assignor shall deliver to Assignee a statement showing the computation of Assignee Gas and Assignee Proceeds for the preceding Computation Period.

          (b) Annual Statements. On the first Quarterly Payment Date after the end of each calendar year and on the Quarterly Payment Date after the Termination Date, such statement shall also show the computation of Assignee Proceeds for the preceding calendar year or, for the Quarterly Payment Date after the Termination Date, for the portion of the calendar year from 7:00 a.m. Eastern Time on January 1 of that same year through the Termination Date.

          (c) Contents of Statements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions in this Section 6.02, each statement delivered by Assignor to Assignee pursuant to this Section 6.02 shall state, for the relevant period, (i) the total volumes of Subject Gas produced from the Subject Lands, (ii) the total volumes of the Assignor’s Net Share of Gas, (iii) the total volumes of Assignee Gas, (iv) the applicable Sales Price, (v) the amount of Assignee Proceeds due and payable for the relevant period and (vi) the amounts of money, if any, due and payable by any purchaser of the Subject Gas or Assignee Gas, the nonpayment of which resulted in the payment to Assignee of less than Assignee Proceeds for the relevant period. Notwithstanding the preceding, Assignor shall only be required to provide the preceding information on an aggregate basis.

     Section 6.03 Assignee’s Exceptions to Quarterly Statements. If Assignee takes exception to any item or items included in any quarterly statement required by Section 6.02, Assignee must notify Assignor in writing within sixty (60) days after Assignee’s receipt of such quarterly statement. Such Notice must set forth in reasonable detail the specific charges complained of and to which exception is taken or the specific credits which should have been made and allowed. Adjustments shall be made for all complaints and exceptions that are justified. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, all matters reflected in Assignor’s statements for the preceding calendar year (or portion thereof) that are not objected to by Assignee in the manner provided by this Section 6.03 shall be deemed correct as rendered by Assignor to Assignee.

     Section 6.04 Other Information.

          (a) Disclosure. At Assignee’s request, subject to applicable restrictions on disclosure and transfer of information, Assignor shall give Assignee and its designated representatives reasonable access in Assignor’s office during normal business hours to all geological, Development Well, and production data in Assignor’s possession or Assignor’s Affiliates’ possession, relating to operations on the Subject Interests.

          (b) Disclaimer of Warranties and Liability. Assignor makes no representations or warranties about the accuracy or completeness of any such data, reports, or studies and shall have no liability to Assignee or any other Person resulting from such data, studies, or reports.

          (c) No Attribution. Assignee shall not attribute to Assignor or to the consulting engineers any reports or studies or the contents thereof in any securities filings or reports to Assignee.

          (d) Confidentiality. All information furnished to Assignee and its designated representatives pursuant to this Section 6.04 is confidential and for the sole benefit of Assignee and shall not be disclosed by Assignee or its designated representatives to any other Person, except to the extent that such information (i) is required in any report, statement or testimony submitted to any Governmental Authority having or claiming to have jurisdiction over Assignee or submitted to bank examiners or similar organizations or their successors, (ii) is required in response to any summons or subpoena or in connection with any litigation, (iii) is believed to be required in order to comply with any applicable Legal Requirement to Assignee, (iv) was publicly available or otherwise known to the recipient at the time of disclosure or (v) subsequently becomes publicly available other than through any act or omission of the recipient; provided, however, with respect to the disclosures with respect to items (i), (ii) and (iii) above, Assignee will notify Assignor prior to any such disclosure in order to provide Assignor an opportunity to seek to limit any such required disclosure.

ARTICLE VII
NO LIABILITY OF ASSIGNEE

     Assignee shall not be personally liable or responsible under this Conveyance for any cost, risk, liability, or obligation associated in any way with the ownership or operation of the Subject Lands, the Subject Interests, the Development Wells, or the Subject Gas. The foregoing sentence does not restrict the right of Assignor to deduct Chargeable Costs or Reserved Amounts in calculating the volumes of Assignee Gas or Assignee Proceeds.

ARTICLE VIII
OPERATIONS

     Section 8.01 Standards of Conduct. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Conveyance, Assignor shall (a) operate and maintain the Subject Interests and (b) make elections under each applicable lease, operating agreement, unit agreement, contract for development, and other similar instrument or agreement (including elections concerning abandonment of any Development Well or release of any Subject Interest) in good faith and in accordance with the Reasonably Prudent Operator Standard.

     Section 8.02 Abandonment of Properties. Nothing in this Conveyance shall obligate Assignor to continue to operate any Development Well or to operate or maintain in force or attempt to maintain in force any Subject Interest when such Development Well or Subject Interest ceases to produce, or Assignor determines, in accordance with Section 8.01 above, that such Development Well or Subject Interest is not capable of producing Gas in paying quantities. The expiration of a Subject Interest in accordance with the terms and conditions applicable thereto shall not be considered to be a voluntary surrender or abandonment thereof.

     Section 8.03 Insurance. Assignor may, but is not required by this Conveyance to, carry insurance on any Subject Interest or Development Well, or covering any risk with respect

thereto. Assignor shall never be liable to Assignee on account of any injury or loss to the Subject Interests or any Development Well, whether insurable or uninsurable, not covered by insurance. If Assignor elects to carry insurance, the premiums shall not be included in Chargeable Costs, and Assignor shall retain all proceeds of such insurance.

ARTICLE IX
POOLING AND UNITIZATION

     Section 9.01 Pooling of Subject Interests. Certain Subject Interests have been, or may have been, heretofore pooled and unitized for the production of Gas. Such Subject Interests are and shall be subject to the terms and provisions of the applicable pooling and unitization agreements, and the Royalty Interest in each pooled or unitized Subject Interest shall apply to and affect only the Gas produced from such units that accrues to such Subject Interest under and by virtue of the applicable pooling and unitization agreements.

     Section 9.02 Pooling and Unitization.

          (a) Right to Pool. Assignor has the exclusive executive right and power (as between Assignor and Assignee) to pool or unitize any Subject Interest and to alter, change, amend, or terminate any pooling or unitization agreements heretofore or hereafter entered into, as to all or any part of the Subject Lands, as to any one or more of the formations or horizons, and as to any Gas, upon such terms and provisions as Assignor shall in its sole discretion deem appropriate.

          (b) Effect of Pooling. If and whenever through the exercise of such right and power, or pursuant to any Legal Requirement now existing or hereafter enacted or promulgated, any Subject Interest is pooled or unitized in any manner, the Royalty Interest, insofar as it affects such Subject Interest, shall also be pooled and unitized, and such Royalty Interest in such Subject Interest shall apply to and affect only the Gas production that accrues to such Subject Interest under and by virtue of the applicable pooling and unitization agreement or order. It shall not be necessary for Assignee to agree to, consent to, ratify, confirm or adopt any exercise of pooling or unitization of any Subject Interest by Assignor.

     Section 11.02 Sale and Release of Properties.

          (a) Transfer. Subject to Section 11.05, Assignor may from time to time, Transfer the Development Wells, the Subject Interests, or any part thereof or undivided interest therein, free of the Royalty Interest and this Conveyance provided that the aggregate Fair Value of all Royalty Interests released with respect to the Assignee Conveyances during any twelve (12) month period shall not exceed $5,000,000.

          (b) Payments. In the event that Assignor receives compensation pursuant to any Prior Reversionary Interest in connection with any conveyance or permanent cessation of production from any Development Well, Assignor shall remit to Assignee an amount equal to the product of (x) such amount actually received by Assignor with respect to such reconveyance or permanent cessation of production and (y) a fraction the numerator of which is (A) the Fair Value of the Royalty Interest released and the denominator of which is (B) the Fair Value of the Subject Interest that is being released. Assignor shall make such payment to Assignee on the Quarterly Payment Date for the Computation Period in which Assignor receives such payment.

          (a) Farmout. Assignor may from time to time enter into Farmout Agreements with Third Persons with respect to the Subject Interests. In the event that Assignor enters into any Farmout Agreement with a Third Person, the Royalty Interest and this Conveyance shall only burden Assignor’s retained interest in the Subject Interest after giving effect to any interest in the Subject Interest that a counterparty to the Farmout Agreement may earn under such Farmout Agreement. Only the Assignor’s retained interest in the Subject Interest will count towards the Assignor’s obligation to drill Development Wells under the Development Agreement.

          (b) Release. In connection with Assignor entering into any Farmout Agreement, Assignee shall, upon request of Assignor, execute, acknowledge, and deliver to Assignor a recordable instrument (reasonably acceptable to Assignor) that releases the Royalty Interest and this Conveyance with respect to the Subject Interests being transferred pursuant to such Farmout Agreement; provided, the Royalty Interest shall still burden the Subject Interest retained by Assignor.

          (a) Obligation to Give Notice. No change of ownership or of the right to receive payment of the Royalty Interest, or of any part thereof, however accomplished, shall bind Assignor until notice thereof is furnished to Assignor by the Person claiming the benefit thereof, and then only with respect to payments made after such Notice is furnished.

Until such Notice accompanied by such documentation is furnished to Assignor in the manner provided above, Assignor may, at Assignor’s election, either (i) continue to pay or tender all sums payable on the Royalty Interest in the same manner provided in this Conveyance, precisely as if no such change in interest or ownership or right to receive payment had occurred or (ii) suspend payment of Assignee Proceeds without interest until such documentation is furnished.

          (e) Effect of Nonconforming Notices. The kinds of Notice provided by this Section 11.03(d) shall be exclusive, and no other kind, whether actual or constructive, shall bind Assignor.

     Section 11.07 One Payee. Assignor shall never be obligated to pay Assignee Proceeds to more than one Person. If more than one Person is ever entitled to receive payment of any part of Assignee Proceeds, Assignor may suspend payments of all Assignee Proceeds until the concurrent owners or claimants of the Royalty Interest or the right to receive payment of Assignee Proceeds appoint one Person in writing to receive all payments of Assignee Proceeds on their behalf. Assignor may thereafter conclusively rely upon the authority of that Person to receive payments of Assignee Proceeds and shall be under no further duty to inquire into the authority or performance of such Person.

     Section 11.08 Rights of Mortgagee. If Assignee executes a mortgage or deed of trust covering all or part of the Royalty Interest, the mortgagees or trustees therein named or the holders of any obligation secured thereby shall be entitled, to the extent that such mortgage or deed of trust so provides, to exercise the rights, remedies, powers, and privileges conferred upon Assignee by this Conveyance and to give or withhold all consents required to be obtained from Assignee.

          (e) the plural shall be deemed to include the singular, and vice versa, unless the content otherwise requires; and

          (f) each exhibit, attachment, and schedule to this Conveyance is a part of this Conveyance, but if there is any conflict or inconsistency between the main body of this Conveyance and any exhibit, attachment, or schedule, the provisions of the main body of this Conveyance shall prevail.

     Section 15.04 No Waiver. Failure of either Party to require performance of any provision of this Conveyance shall not affect either Party’s right to require full performance thereof at any time thereafter, and the waiver by either Party of a breach of any provision hereof shall not constitute a waiver of a similar breach in the future or of any other breach or nullify the effectiveness of such provision.

     Section 15.05 Relationship of Parties. This Conveyance does not create a partnership, mining partnership, joint venture, or relationship of trust or agency (except with respect to Assignor’s agency relationship with respect to those matters set forth in Articles IV and V above) between the Parties.

In the event of failure or deficiency in title to any Development Well or Subject Interest (other than burdens in excess of twelve and one half percent (12.5%)), the portion of the Subject Gas production attributable thereto shall be reduced in the same proportion that such Development Well or Subject Interest is reduced by such failure or deficiency. Such proportionate reduction of the Royalty Interest shall not limit Assignee’s rights with respect to such reduction under Section 1.04.

     Section 15.07 Further Assurances. Each Party shall execute, acknowledge, and deliver to the other Party all additional instruments and other documents reasonably required to describe more specifically any interests subject hereto, to vest more fully in Assignee the Royalty Interest conveyed (or intended to be conveyed) by this Conveyance, or to evidence or effect any transaction contemplated by this Conveyance. Assignor shall also execute and deliver all additional instruments and other documents reasonably required to transfer interests in state, federal, or Indian lease interests in compliance with applicable Legal Requirements or agreements. Upon expiration of the Term, Assignee shall, on request, execute, acknowledge and deliver to Assignor sufficient numbers of recordable instruments releasing all of the Subject Lands from this Conveyance.

     Section 15.08 The 7:00 A.M. Convention. Except as otherwise provided in this Conveyance, each calendar day, month, quarter, and year shall be deemed to begin at 7:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the stated day or on the first day of the stated month, quarter, or year, and to end at 7:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the next day or on first day of the next month, quarter, or year, respectively.

     Section 15.09 Counterpart Execution. This Conveyance may be executed in any number of counterparts, and each such counterpart hereof shall be deemed to be an original instrument, but all of such counterparts shall constitute for all purposes one Conveyance. As between the Parties, any signature hereto delivered by a Party by facsimile transmission or email pdf. shall be deemed an original hereto.

     Section 15.10 Present and Absolute Conveyance. It is the express intention of Assignor and Assignee that the Royalty Interest is, and shall be construed for all purposes as, a present, fully-vested and absolute conveyance.

     Section 15.11 Tax Treatment. Notwithstanding that this Royalty Interest may be a real property interest for purposes of applicable state law, the Parties agree to treat this Royalty Interest as a mortgage loan for federal income tax purposes pursuant to Section 636(a) of the Code (and for the purposes of any similarly calculated state income or franchise taxes) but for no other purposes, and the Parties agree (a) to file all federal income tax and state income tax and franchise tax returns consistent with this Section 15.11, (b) to use a comparable yield of [•] per month for purpose of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1275-4(b) and (c) to utilize the “projected payment schedule” provided for in Treasury Regulation Section 1.1275-4(b) and attached hereto as Schedule 15.11 [To come] for purposes of reporting income and deductions (and adjustments thereto) in respect of the Royalty Interest. For avoidance of doubt, the parties acknowledge that Assignor (and not Assignee) is entitled to all tax credits and other applicable tax attributes attributable to this Royalty Interest and the production of Gas attributable thereto.
