The farm-out interest is hereby granted as One Hundred Percent Working Interest (100% W.I.); thereby ASSIGNEE will pay 100% of the drilling, completion, and operation costs to earn their 75% NRI.

Should commercially producible quantities of oil and/or gas be encountered in any formation other than the New Albany Shale, then ASSIGNEE shall have first right to drill a twin well to produce said hydrocarbons. Should ASSIGNEE decline to drill such a twin well, and should ASSIGNOR wish to drill that twin well to zones other than the New Albany Shale, then ASSIGNOR may do so at their own discretion and expense.

6.	ASSIGNEE will have the option to contract ASSIGNOR for management of drilling and completion operations, and shall receive $10,000.00 per well for this service, due at the commencement of drilling activities.

ASSIGNOR shall have the right to sell gas from any of its pre-existing gas wells on the project acreage, including the new Slinker #1 well, into the natural gas gathering line network that ASSIGNEE will construct without being assessed any fees, including but not limited to transportation, compression, or scrubbing of said gas. This right shall also extend to any twin gas wells that ASSIGNOR may drill at its own expense per Item 4.

ASSIGNEE shall maintain General Liability Insurance at all times during the project, and shall name as Additionally Insured: ASSIGNOR and its successors and assigns in these leases, as well as Mr. Danny Thomasson and Mr. Marvin K. Conn as individuals. The General Liability Insurance policy shall provide the following minimum coverage limits: General Aggregate $2 Million; General Liability $1 Million; Products and Completed Operations $1 Million; Environmental Spills & Cleanup $1 Million; and Medical Payments $10,000.

9.	ASSIGNEE shall be responsible for all legal work associated with obtaining a Title Opinion for the subject leaseholds.

10.	ASSIGNEE shall assume responsibility for all land and crop damages arising from drilling or production activities such as road & location construction, spills, etc.

11.

ASSIGNEE shall assume responsibility for the maintenance of the leasehold property and infrastructure including roads, gates, etc.; insofar as said maintenance shall extend only to that leasehold infrastructure that will be utilized or created as a result of this agreement. This clause shall take affect on the date of closing of this agreement and the leasehold infrastructure, with all pre-existing structures and improvements shall be transferred “as-is” on that day.
