Re: Second Amendment to Membership Interest Transfer Agreement

Dear Mr. Boeing:

Reference is made to that certain Membership Interest Transfer Agreement by and between EXCO Holding (PA), Inc. (“EXCO”), and BG US Production Company, LLC (“BG”), dated as of May 9, 2010, as amended by such parties pursuant to that certain letter agreement dated June 1, 2010 (as so amended, the “MITA”). Pursuant to Section 12.1(a) of the MITA, on June 18, 2010, BG submitted a notice of extension of the Post-Closing Environmental Defect Claim Date (an “Extension Notice”). On June 24, 2010, EXCO sent notice of disagreement with the Extension Notice and proposed that the parties resolve their differences by certain changes to the MITA. In consideration of the mutual promises contained herein and in the MITA and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, BG and EXCO hereby agree to amend the MITA as follows:

 

  1.

In Appendix I, the definitions of “Post-Closing Environmental Defect Claim Date” and “Post-Closing Environmental Defect Remedy Date” shall be revised to read as follows:

Post-Closing Environmental Defect Claim Date” shall mean on or before 5:00 p.m. (Central Time) on the day that is 90 days after the Closing Date.

Post-Closing Environmental Defect Remedy Date” shall mean on or before 5:00 p.m. (Central Time) on the day that is 150 days after the Closing Date.

 

  2.

BG hereby waives its right to extend the Post Closing Environmental Defect Claim Date by 60 days in accordance with Section 12.1(a) of the MITA.

 

  3.

If EXCO desires that EXCO Resources (PA), LLC (“OPCO”) take any curative action with respect to a Post-Closing Environmental Defect on behalf of EXCO, any proposal for OPCO to undertake any such curative action, and the action to be taken, will be subject to the approval of OPCO’s Management Board (as defined in the Second Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of OPCO, dated June 1, 2010), such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. EXCO will reimburse, indemnify and hold harmless OPCO, BG and the other BG Indemnified Parties for all Liabilities incurred by them arising from, based upon, related to or associated with any such action taken by OPCO on behalf of EXCO, even if such Liabilities arise or result solely or in part from the gross, sole, active, passive, concurrent or comparative negligence, strict liability or other fault or violation of law of or by any indemnified person.
