Any principal or fee amount not paid when due shall bear interest until paid at a rate of twenty percent (20%) ("Default Interest") after Maturity. Default Inter est on this Note is calculated on the actual number of days elapsed on a basis of a 360 day year unless otherwise indicated above. For purposes of computing interest on this Note, payments of all or any portion of the Principal Amount and or Loan Fee will not be deemed to have been made until such payments are received by holder in collected funds.

ALL PARTIES PRINCIPAL. All parties liable for payment hereunder shall each be regarded as a principal and each party agrees that any party hereto with approval of holder and without notice to other parties may from time to time renew this Note or consent to one or more extensions or deferrals of Maturity Date for any term or terms, and all parties shall be liable in same manner as on the original note.

ADVANCES AND PAYMENT. It is agreed that the sum of all advances under this Note may exceed the Principal Amount as shown above, but the unpaid balance shall never exceed the Principal Amount. Advances and payments on this Note shall be recorded on records of Lender and such records shall be prima facie evidence of such advances, payments and unpaid principal balance. Subsequent advances and the procedures described herein shall not be construed or interpreted as granting a continuing line of credit for the Principal Amount. Lender reserves the right to apply any payment by Maker, or for account of Maker, toward this Note or any other obligation of Maker to Lender. Maker may prepay this Note at any time without penalty.

COLLATERAL. The Principal Amount is to be used by Maker to acquired oil and gas leasehold interests in Logan County, Oklahoma and surrounding counties for the development of a Mississippian oil and gas prospect. This Note and all other obligations of Maker to Lender, and all renewals or extensions thereof, are secured by the oil and gas leases now owned by Maker in Logan County, Oklahoma and the oil and gas leases in Logan County, Oklahoma and surrounding counties to be acquired with the proceeds of this loan and all collateral securing this Note and by all other security interests heretofore or hereafter granted to Lender as more specifically described in Security Agreements and other securing documentation.

WAIVERS AND GOVERNING LAW. No waiver by holder of any payment or other right under this Note or any related agreement or documentation shall operate as a waiver of any other payment or right. This Note and the obligations evidenced hereby are to be construed and governed by the laws of the State of Oklahoma.

COLLECTION COSTS. All parties liable for payment hereunder agree to pay reasonable costs of collection, including an attorney's fee of a minimum of 15% of all sums due upon default, whether or not a lawsuit is commenced as a part of the collection process.

RIGHT OF OFFSET.
