ARBITRATION

Section 9.01 Arbitration. If arbitration is required pursuant to this Agreement, the Parties shall agree on a sole arbitrator to hear and decide all matters under this Agreement.

Litigation

Jack Mattingly, Kay Mattingly, Mike Healy Trust, f/k/a Mike Healy, d/b/a MCR Investments, C.E. Garrett, and G&W, a partnership, v. Equal Energy, a/k/a Altex Energy Corporation, a/k/a Altex Resources Corporation, Special Energy Corporation, New Dominion, LLC, and Scissortail Energy, LLC, Case No. 10-CV-565-TCK-PJC, in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Oklahoma. This case was originally filed in Creek County District Court on August 16, 2010, but was subsequently removed to federal court on September 9, 2010, under CAFA provisions. Plaintiffs make claims individually and on behalf of a class of royalty owners alleging that Defendants breached certain duties owed to Plaintiffs arising from oil and gas leases between Plaintiffs and Defendants by allegedly deducting post-production costs in calculating the royalties paid to Plaintiffs under those leases. Plaintiffs seek damages in excess of $10,000, punitive damages, interest, costs and attorney’s fees. Plaintiffs have moved to remand the action to state court, and Defendants, including the Company, have filed various motions to dismiss. In addition, the Company has filed a motion for summary judgment and motion for sanctions against Plaintiffs and Plaintiffs’ counsel. Decision on the Defendants’ motions has been stayed until the Court rules upon Plaintiffs’ motion to remand, which remains pending.
