		$	42,000,000.00

ARTICLE 5
ADJUSTMENTS

5.01		Adjustment to Purchase Price: If Vendor assumes the abandonment liability for any Wells existing on Lands detailed in schedule “A-2” (“Abandonment Liabilities”), then the Purchase Price paid by Purchaser to Vendor on the Closing Date shall be reduced by Purchaser’s 50% working interest share of the value of the estimated cost to abandon and reclaim those Abandonment Liabilities, which cost shall be determined by mutual agreement of the Purchaser and the Vendor.
5.02		Apportionment as of Effective Date: Subject to the Adjustment Procedure, all benefits and obligations of every kind and nature accruing, payable or paid and received or receivable in respect of the Assets, including maintenance, development, capital and operating costs and the revenue (after tax) from the sale of production, shall be apportioned between the Vendor and the Purchaser as of the Effective Date, including, without limitation:

5.03

Title Failure — Post-Closing Adjustment: Subject to clause 18.01, the Parties agree that the Vendor will convey to Purchaser, at or following Closing, the Leases and Lands containing a minimum of 400,000 net acres. For any Leases that do not exist, have failed as a result of non-payment of rentals prior to the Effective Date or Vendor’s Interests are less than represented as shown on schedules “A-1” and/or “A-2, which are identified by either Party during the preparation of the assignments to the Purchaser by the Vendor, the Vendor shall deliver to the Purchaser written notice of such non-existent or failed Leases or reduced interests, and the Vendor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure such defects by acquiring or renewing such Leases on or before thirty (30) days after the date of the Vendor’s notice. The Vendor shall complete all Closing assignments required pursuant to this Agreement within six (6) months following the Closing Date. Within thirty (30) days following the completion of all assignments to the Purchaser, the Parties shall jointly determine the total net acres successfully conveyed to the Purchaser. The total net acres successfully conveyed to Purchaser shall be the sum of the net acres in each valid Lease which shall be determined by multiplying by 0.5 the sum of the gross working interest acres in each Lease times the gross working interest in each Lease as shown on schedules “A-1” and “A-2” as may be amended pursuant to this clause. Provided the total net acres conveyed to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement exceeds 400,000 net acres or if the total net acres successfully conveyed to the Purchaser is less than 400,000 net acres but greater or equal to 380,000 net acres, then no adjustments between the Vendor and the Purchaser shall be required. If the total net acres conveyed to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement is less than 380,000 net acres, then, the Purchaser shall be credited, as a post-Closing adjustment, at a rate of $100 per net acre for every net acre below 400,000 that is not conveyed to the Purchaser. Notwithstanding clause 2 of schedule “C”, any adjustments owing to the Purchaser by the Vendor pursuant to this clause shall be payable to the Purchaser within sixty (60) days following the completion of all assignments to the Purchaser.

ARTICLE 6
OPERATIONS AFTER EXECUTION OF AGREEMENT

6.01

Activities After Execution:

	(a)		The Vendor agrees to inform, from time to time, the Purchaser of all material activities proposed with respect to the Assets by the Vendor and others to take place between the execution of this Agreement and the Closing Date. Vendor has delivered to Purchaser the AFE. Upon Closing, Vendor and Purchaser agree to work cooperatively to manage the future drilling operations of the Gray Well.
	(b)		The Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that the AFE is an estimate only, and is not a cap or limitation on any Party’s obligation to pay and liability for their proportionate part of all actual cost, expense and liability arising in connection with or related to such well. If the actual gross well drilling costs exceed the original gross AFE drilling cost plus ten percent (10%) prior to total depth being reached, Vendor shall issue a supplemental authorization for expenditure.
	(c)		All operations shall be conducted in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Operating Agreement. Except as provided in clause 16.03, all costs and liabilities incurred for the Gray Well shall be borne and paid by the Parties in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Operating Agreement including, without limitation, the non-consent provisions thereof. Vendor shall be entitled to the operator’s reimbursement for direct costs and applicable overhead in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Operating Agreement.
	(d)		In application of the Operating Agreement, in the case of a supplemental authorization for expenditure, if the Purchaser elects or is deemed to be in a non-consent status for the remaining drilling operations, a 500% penalty on production will be applied on the costs of the remaining drilling operations. Expenditures and production recovery with respect to the penalty account will apply to operations on the drilling spacing unit. There will be no dilution of interest in the drilling spacing unit or adjacent sections. During the penalty period, information on drilling progress and results of logging and testing will be shared with the Purchaser.
	(e)		If the Purchaser is in a non-consent position on a supplemental AFE, the Vendor will inform the Purchaser of a casing point election. The Purchaser will have the option to remain in penalty or make a cash payment for the 500% penalty incurred under the supplemental drilling AFE and then participate in the completion and future operations in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Operating Agreement.
	(f)		In the final form of the Operating Agreement, the supplemental AFE penalty provisions described in this section will apply to the operator and non-operator.

6.02

8.01		Notices: If any of the Assets are subject to a ROFR, the Vendor shall promptly serve all notices required under the ROFR. Each such notice shall include a request for a waiver of the ROFR.
8.02		Exercise: In the event a third party exercises any such ROFR, the Assets that are the subject of such ROFR shall be removed from and no longer be subject to the terms of this Agreement, and the schedules hereto shall be deemed to be amended accordingly. There shall be deducted from the Purchase Price the amount so allocated by the Parties with respect to such Assets pursuant to clause 9.01, provided that if such exercise by a third party follows an arbitration binding on the Vendor or a final (non-appealable) determination of a Court, which results in a change in the value of the Assets that are the subject of that ROFR, then that changed value shall be deducted from the Purchase Price.

ARTICLE 9
VALUE OF ASSETS

9.01		Value for ROFR: The Purchaser shall upon execution of this Agreement, supply to the Vendor the value placed by the Purchaser (acting reasonably and in good faith) on any of the Assets with respect to which the Vendor is required to give notice pursuant to clause 8.01.

Should the Purchaser not provide the values required pursuant to this clause 9.02, the Vendor may (acting reasonably and in good faith) use its own valuations for such purpose.
9.03		Value Indemnity: In addition to article 16, the Purchaser shall indemnify the Vendor harmless from and against all losses and liabilities, insofar as those losses and liabilities pertain to ROFR values provided by the Purchaser under this article that are determined not to be a bona fide estimate of value.
