Section 1.1 Conveyance. For and in consideration of One Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00) and other good and valuable consideration paid by Royalty Owner to Working Interest Owner, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Working Interest Owner hereby GRANTS, BARGAINS, SELLS, CONVEYS, ASSIGNS, TRANSFERS, SETS OVER AND DELIVERS unto Royalty Owner a term overriding royalty interest in and to the Subject Interests and in and to the Subject Hydrocarbons attributable thereto that is equal to the Production Payment Percentage with respect to each Subject Interest and the Subject Hydrocarbons attributable thereto (but not to exceed during any Month the Scheduled Quantities plus any Adjustment Quantity of the Subject Hydrocarbons produced and saved that Month), together with all and singular the rights and appurtenances thereto in anywise belonging (the “Production Payment”).

TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the Production Payment unto Royalty Owner, its successors and assigns until the Termination Time.

Section 1.2 Non-Operating, Non-Expense-Bearing Interest. The Production Payment conveyed hereby is a non-operating, non-expense-bearing limited term overriding royalty interest, free of all cost and expense of production, operations and delivery to the applicable Delivery Points. The Production Payment and the Production Payment Hydrocarbons will be free and clear of, and in no event will Royalty Owner ever be liable or responsible in any way for payment of, any and all (a) costs, expenses and liabilities associated with acquiring, exploring, developing, drilling, redrilling, maintaining, producing, operating, reworking, repairing, recompleting, and remediating the Subject Interests, or (b) cash balancing obligations or Delivery Point Charges. All costs and expenses associated with acquiring, exploring, developing, drilling, redrilling, maintaining, producing, operating, reworking, repairing, recompleting, and remediating the Subject Interests and all cash balancing obligations and Delivery Point Charges will be borne by the Retained Interests and paid by Working Interest Owner promptly, on or before the dates the same become delinquent.

Section 1.3 Royalties; Taxes. The Production Payment will be free and clear of (and without deduction of) any and all royalties, overriding royalties, other production payments, and other burdens on production and will bear no part of the same; the Retained Interests will be burdened with, and Working Interest Owner will timely pay, all such royalties, overriding royalties, other production payments, and other burdens on production. Working Interest Owner will defend, indemnify and hold Royalty Owner harmless from and against any loss or claim with respect to any such royalties and other burdens on production or any claim by the owners or holders of such royalties and other burdens on production. Working Interest Owner will bear and pay all Taxes with respect to the Production Payment and the Production Payment Hydrocarbons, and the Production Payment Hydrocarbons will be free of Taxes and delivered without deduction for Taxes.

Section 1.4 Termination.

(a) The Production Payment will remain in full force and effect until the Termination Time. At the Termination Time, all rights, titles and interests hereby conveyed to Royalty Owner in the Subject Interests will automatically terminate and vest in Working Interest Owner and, upon request by Working Interest Owner, Royalty Owner (at Working Interest Owner’s expense) will execute and deliver such instruments (in recordable form) as may be reasonably necessary to evidence the termination of the Production Payment, provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing or anything herein to the contrary, any obligations which any Person may have to indemnify, reimburse, or compensate Royalty Owner, or to make payments to Royalty Owner on account of Production Payment Hydrocarbons produced before the Termination Time, or to give reports or take other actions with respect to such Production Payment Hydrocarbons or such payments, will survive any termination of the Production Payment.

(b) No pipeline company or other Person purchasing, taking or processing Production Payment Hydrocarbons will be required to take notice of or to keep informed concerning termination of the Production Payment until actual receipt of a termination instrument signed by Royalty Owner as contemplated in the preceding subsection (a).

(c) If any individual Subject Interest (or portion thereof, as applicable) should by its terms terminate before the Termination Time and not be extended, renewed or replaced, then the Production Payment will no longer apply to that particular Subject Interest (or such portion thereof, as applicable), but the Production Payment will remain in full force and effect and undiminished as to all remaining Subject Interests (and all remaining portions of such Subject Interest, as applicable), as well as to any new lease referred to in the last sentence of the definition of “Lease” in Section 2.1. No Scheduled Quantity, Adjustment Quantity or Monthly Adjustment Amount will ever be reduced or diminished by reason of the termination of all or any portion of a Subject Interest.

Section 1.5 Delivery to Royalty Owner. Working Interest Owner will cause the Production Payment Hydrocarbons to be delivered each Day to Royalty Owner, or to the credit of Royalty Owner, into the facilities of the Delivery Point Recipient at the applicable Delivery

2

Point, in a condition satisfactory to meet or exceed all specifications and requirements of such Delivery Point Recipient and free of all Delivery Point Charges. Such delivery will be made on a first priority basis (along with the other Subject Hydrocarbons), to the extent permitted by applicable Law and by any contracts existing on the date hereof, and Working Interest Owner hereby dedicates to the Subject Hydrocarbons all gathering, transportation, processing, treating and compression plants and equipment (whether owned or possessed by contract right) and all contract rights and other rights useful in making such delivery and agrees that the same will be used to deliver the Subject Hydrocarbons in such condition prior to being used for other Hydrocarbons belonging to Working Interest Owner or its Affiliates. Although the Production Payment Hydrocarbons are owned by Royalty Owner when and as produced at the wellhead, Working Interest Owner will be solely responsible for causing delivery thereof to occur at the Delivery Points and for the handling, management and care of the Production Payment Hydrocarbons until such delivery has been completed and solely responsible for any damage, injury or loss that may occur in connection therewith. To the extent it has the right to do so, Working Interest Owner hereby grants to Royalty Owner and its purchasers and agents easements and rights-of-way over and across the Leases and all lands subject thereto or pooled, communitized and/or unitized therewith, together with rights of ingress and egress to go on or about such lands and all related production, processing, handling and other facilities, for the purposes of receiving, accepting and taking Production Payment Hydrocarbons at the applicable Delivery Points and for the further transportation thereof.

Section 1.6 Certain Limitations. The Production Payment will be subject to the following provisions:

(a) Royalty Owner will look solely to the Production Payment Hydrocarbons for satisfaction and discharge of the Production Payment, and Working Interest Owner will not be personally liable under this Conveyance for the payment and discharge thereof (although Working Interest Owner will be personally liable for the performance of its representations, warranties, agreements and indemnitees in the Production Payment Documents).

(b) The Gas produced from the Subject Interests will be allocated first to the Production Payment, and the Oil produced from the Subject Interests will be allocated first to the Retained Interests, so that the Production Payment Hydrocarbons will consist of Gas to the extent reasonably practicable.

(c) Neither the occurrence of an event of force majeure nor any other event or condition reducing or eliminating production or delivery of Subject Hydrocarbons will suspend the calculation and increase of any Monthly Deficiency or other component of the Monthly Adjustment Amount.

Section 1.7 Measurement. Measurement of the quantities of Subject Hydrocarbons that are Gas will be made by meters located at the applicable Delivery Points. All of such measurements must comply with then current testing methods of the American Society for Testing Materials or the American Petroleum Institute, and all such Delivery Point meters must measure the volume of Gas (in cubic feet). The MMBtu content of such Gas will be determined by industry standard gas analysis samplings taken at least annually. Measurement of Subject Hydrocarbons that are Oil will be determined under the applicable agreement with the Delivery

3

Point Recipient (or under the applicable marketing agreement with any Person purchasing such Oil at the Delivery Point) and, if such agreement does not specify measurement procedures, in accordance with generally accepted industry practices in effect at the time and place of delivery using then current testing methods of the American Society for Testing Materials or the American Petroleum Institute. All measurements of Gas or Oil will be subject to the rights of Working Interest Owner and Royalty Owner to audit and confirm such measurements. Working Interest Owner hereby represents, warrants and covenants to Royalty Owner as follows with respect to the Subject Hydrocarbons: (a) lease level separation of Oil from Gas does and will take place prior to the measuring of the Btu content of such Gas, and (b) production of Gas and of Oil from each Subject Well is and will continue to be measured at a point prior to any point where Gas or Oil from such Subject Well is commingled with Gas or Oil from any other well or wells that are not Subject Wells.

Section 1.8 No Mortgage, Assignment or Pooling by Working Interest Owner. During the term of the Production Payment, (a) Working Interest Owner will not mortgage, pledge or hypothecate the Subject Interests or create or allow to remain any lien or security interest thereon or on any Hydrocarbons produced therefrom, other than Permitted Encumbrances, and (b) Working Interest Owner will not assign, sell, convey or otherwise transfer the Subject Interests or any part thereof, unless in each case Royalty Owner expressly consents thereto in writing, the transferee expressly agrees to assume and perform all of Working Interest Owner’s obligations under this Conveyance and the other documents executed in connection herewith (contingent, in the case of a mortgagee, upon taking possession), and such mortgage, pledge, hypothecation, lien, security interest, assignment, sale, conveyance or other transfer is made and accepted expressly subject and subordinate to this Conveyance. Any purported mortgage, pledge, hypothecation, lien, security interest, assignment, sale, conveyance or other transfer in violation hereof will be null and void. During the term of the Production Payment, Working Interest Owner will not – except as may be required by the terms of any existing or new Lease or by the terms of any Law or any order of a court or regulatory authority having jurisdiction, or unless Working Interest Owner and Royalty Owner have the same or larger Net Revenue Interest in each affected Subject Interest both before and after pooling or unitization–pool, communitize or unitize the Production Payment or the Subject Interests (or amend any presently existing pooling, communitization or unitization agreement with respect thereto) without the express written consent of Royalty Owner, and any purported pooling, communitization, unitization or amendment in contravention of the preceding clause will be null and void as to Royalty Owner and will not have the effect of pooling or otherwise affecting the Production Payment.

Section 1.9 Title. Working Interest Owner hereby binds itself and its successors and assigns to WARRANT and forever DEFEND all and singular title to the Production Payment and the Production Payment Hydrocarbons unto Royalty Owner, its successors and assigns, against every Person lawfully claiming or who may claim the same or any part thereof, including any Person claiming under a Permitted Encumbrance. In addition, and without limitation of the foregoing, Working Interest Owner warrants and represents to Royalty Owner that:

(a) each Lease is a valid and subsisting oil, gas and/or mineral lease, deed or other instrument covering the lands and depths described in such Lease (subject to any limitations as to depth or areal extent set forth in the Property Exhibit with respect to such Lease);

4

(b) the ownership of Working Interest Owner of the Subject Interests does and will, with respect to each Lease, unit, formation, or well identified in the Property Exhibit, (i) entitle Working Interest Owner and Royalty Owner collectively to receive and retain a percentage Net Revenue Interest share of the Hydrocarbons produced from (or, to the extent pooled or unitized, allocated to) such Lease, unit, formation or well equal to (or exceeding) the Warranted Net Revenue Interest Percentage set forth in the Property Exhibit, determined after taking all Non-Consent Provisions, if any, into account, and (ii) cause Working Interest Owner to be obligated to bear a percentage share of the costs associated with operations on such Lease, unit, formation, or well that is no more than the Warranted Working Interest Percentage set forth in the Property Exhibit, which share of costs is not subject to increase (except as specifically described in such Exhibit) without either a corresponding proportional increase in the associated Net Revenue Interest or the right to receive immediate reimbursement for such increased costs from another owner of interests in such Lease, unit, formation or well;

(c) such shares of production, as reflected on the Property Exhibit, which Working Interest Owner and Royalty Owner are entitled to receive and retain, and such shares of expenses, as reflected on the Property Exhibit, which Working Interest Owner is obligated to bear, are not subject to change upon Working Interest Owner’s or any other Person’s achievement of payout or some other measure of recovery of costs incurred with respect to any of the Subject Interests prior to the Effective Time, except as expressly described in the Property Exhibit; and

(d) Working Interests Owner’s title to the Subject Interests, the Subject Hydrocarbons and the facilities, equipment, and all related contractual rights needed for the operation of the Subject Interests and the production of the Subject Hydrocarbons is free and clear of (i) any encumbrances, liens, mortgages or pledges, other than Permitted Encumbrances and any liens and security interests being released concurrently with the grant of the Production Payment, (ii) any preferential purchase rights (other than those that have been waived or the time period for exercise of which has expired without exercise) or requirements for consents to assignment (other than those that have been obtained or waived) that would be applicable to or exercisable as a result of this Conveyance, and (iii) any other defects that would materially and adversely affect or interfere with the operation, use, possession, ownership or value thereof as currently owned, operated, conducted and used by Working Interest Owner or, if not Working Interest Owner, the current operator of the applicable Lease.

This Conveyance is made with full substitution and subrogation of Royalty Owner in and to all covenants, representations and warranties by others heretofore given or made with respect to the Subject Interests.

Section 1.10 No Proportionate Reduction. It is understood and agreed that the Production Payment Hydrocarbons and the Production Payment Percentages will be determined based on 100% of the full Warranted Net Revenue Interest Percentages of the Hydrocarbons produced from (or, to the extent pooled or unitized, allocated to) the Subject Lands and will not

5

be reduced for any reason except to the extent expressly provided in Section 1.11. Among other things, the Production Payment Hydrocarbons and the Production Payment Percentages will not be reduced due to (a) the undivided interest owned by Working Interest Owner in a Lease being less than the entire interest in such Lease, or (b) the interest in Hydrocarbons or other minerals underlying any portion of the Subject Lands which is covered by a particular Lease (or group of Leases) being less than the entire interest in the Hydrocarbons and other minerals underlying such portion of the Subject Lands.

Section 1.11 Government Regulation. The obligations of Working Interest Owner hereunder will be subject to all applicable Laws. Working Interest Owner will timely make all material filings with all applicable agencies, boards, officials and commissions having jurisdiction with respect to the Subject Interests, the operation thereof or the Production Payment prior to or at the time any such filing becomes due. Should any Laws, any Leases or any presently existing provisions in presently existing private contracts (including those limiting the size of overriding royalties and similar interests but excluding any contracts directly entered into by Royalty Owner) be applicable to the Subject Interests so as to limit the portion of the Hydrocarbons produced from a particular Subject Interest which may be attributable to the Production Payment, the Production Payment will, as to such Subject Interest and for the period of time during which such Law, Lease or contractual provision is applicable, be limited to the maximum amount of production from such Subject Interest which can be attributed to the Production Payment under such Law, Lease or contractual provision; provided, however, should such limitation be in effect as to any one or more Subject Interests, then (without prejudice to other rights Royalty Owner may have) the portion of production from (or, to the extent pooled or unitized, allocated to) the other Subject Interests which would be attributable to the Production Payment in the absence of the provisions of this subsection will be increased to the maximum extent permitted (up to 90%) to cause Royalty Owner to receive, by virtue of ownership of the Production Payment, the same aggregate amount of Hydrocarbons that Royalty Owner would have received had such Law, Lease or contractual provision not reduced the share of production from such Subject Interest with respect to which the Production Payment could be paid.

ARTICLE III

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 3.1 Nature of Production Payment; Intentions of the Parties. This Conveyance is an absolute conveyance of an interest in real property. The Production Payment constitutes a “production payment” as defined in Section 101(42A) of the Bankruptcy Code and referred to in Section 541(b)(4)(B)(i) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Parties intend for the Production Payment to at all times be treated for federal income tax purposes (and for the purpose of any similarly calculated state income or franchise taxes, but for no other purposes) as a mortgage loan (and not a “royalty” or other “economic interest” in Hydrocarbons) within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations and judicial authority relating thereto, and the Parties agree to report the Production Payment accordingly on all applicable tax returns. Nothing in this Conveyance may be construed to constitute either Party (under state Law or for tax purposes) in partnership with the other Party or to constitute an assignment by Working Interest Owner to Royalty Owner of an interest in any tax partnership burdening the Subject Interests. The Production Payment does not include any ownership interest in and to any of the fixtures, structures, equipment or other tangible personal property now or hereafter placed on, or used in connection with, the Subject Interests or any right to conduct operations with any of the foregoing.

Section 3.2 Governing Law. THIS CONVEYANCE IS TO BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS.

Section 3.3 Successors and Assigns. The covenants, provisions and conditions contained in this Conveyance are agreed and acknowledged to be covenants running with the land and the respective interests of Working Interest Owner and Royalty Owner and will be binding upon and (subject to the restrictions in Section 1.8) inure to the benefit of Working Interest Owner and Royalty Owner and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Royalty Owner and its successors and assigns may, and nothing contained in this instrument will

15

in any way limit or restrict the right of Royalty Owner, or Royalty Owner’s successors and assigns to, sell, convey, assign, mortgage or otherwise transfer the Production Payment or its rights and obligations under this Conveyance in whole or in part. If at any time Royalty Owner, or Royalty Owner’s successors and assigns, execute a mortgage, pledge or deed of trust covering all or any part of the Production Payment as security for any obligation, the mortgagee, the pledgee or the trustee therein named or the holder of the obligation secured thereby will be entitled, to the extent such mortgage, pledge or deed of trust so provides, to exercise all of the rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein conferred upon Royalty Owner and to give or withhold all consents herein required or permitted to be obtained from Royalty Owner. All references herein to either Working Interest Owner or Royalty Owner include their respective successors and permitted assigns.

Section 3.4 Counterpart Execution. This Conveyance is executed in multiple originals all of which constitute one and the same Conveyance; provided, however, in order to facilitate recording of this Conveyance in the public records of each of the jurisdictions in which the Subject Interests are located (or in each of the jurisdictions adjacent to any offshore Subject Interests), the exhibits attached to a counterpart recorded in a single jurisdiction may contain only those pages (or portions thereof) which apply to Subject Interests that are located in (or are adjacent to) such jurisdiction. Complete counterparts of this Conveyance have been retained by each of the Parties, and a complete counterpart of this Conveyance is recorded in Harrison County, Texas.

Section 3.5 Further Assurances. Working Interest Owner will take all such further actions and will execute, acknowledge and deliver all such further documents that may reasonably be requested by Royalty Owner to effectuate this Conveyance or to carry out the purposes of this Conveyance.

Section 3.6 No Subordination to Permitted Encumbrances. Certain agreements, contracts and other documents are listed in the Property Exhibit and included in the definition of Permitted Encumbrances. References herein or in the Property Exhibit to Permitted Encumbrances are made solely for the purpose of modifying Working Interest Owner’s warranties and representations as to the Subject Interests, and without regard to whether or not any Permitted Encumbrance is valid, subsisting, legal or enforceable or affects or is senior to the Production Payment. Such references are not intended to constitute and do not constitute any express or implied recognition or acknowledgment by any Party as to the validity, legality, enforceability or priority of the same or of any term, provision or condition thereof or the applicability or seniority thereof to the Production Payment and do not revive or ratify the same or create any rights in any third Person. No provision in this Conveyance may be construed as an agreement or expression of intent by Royalty Owner to acquire the Production Payment subject to any unrecorded Permitted Encumbrance.

Section 3.7 Partial Invalidity. Except as otherwise expressly stated herein, in the event any term or provision contained in this Conveyance is for any reason held invalid, illegal or unenforceable to any extent by a court or regulatory agency of competent jurisdiction, such term or provision will otherwise remain effective and be enforced, and all other terms and provisions hereof will nevertheless remain effective and will be enforced, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law.
