Test Well: For the purposes of this Agreement, the Test Well shall be defined as the initial well drilled on the North Franklin Prospect under the terms of this Agreement. Operator shall notify each Participant of the projected spud date of the Test Well not more than thirty (30) days prior to that date. Each Participant shall, not later than ten (10) days following receipt of said notice, advance its Participation Share of one hundred percent (100%) of said Test Well’s estimated AFE drilling costs to Operator. Operator shall promptly commence and diligently continue with the actual drilling of the proposed Test Well after the receipt of all the Test Well’s drilling costs. In the event any Participant fails to so advance the drilling funds for the Test Well, Archer may, at its

option, terminate this Agreement in its entirety as to that Participant by delivering to such Participant a written notice of termination. In the event this Agreement is so terminated, said Participant shall forfeit all funds previously paid to Archer and have no rights or obligations under this Agreement, except any obligations accruing prior to such termination.

Completion Operations: In the event Archer, as Operator, decides to attempt a completion of the Test Well, each Participant shall, prior to Operator undertaking any completions, and upon verbal notice immediately followed by written notice from Operator, advance its Participation Share of the estimated AFE completion cost to Operator unless such Participant elects not to participate in the completion attempt and instead elects to terminate its further rights and forfeit all amounts paid or required to be paid under this Agreement prior to the completion attempt, in which case this Agreement shall automatically terminate as to such Participant, and such Participant shall have no further rights or obligations under this Agreement except for the rights and obligations accruing prior to termination.

Drilling Obligations: Within one-hundred and eighty (180) days from and after the date of the commencement of production of oil or gas in paying quantities in the test well, or at a time mutually agreed between the Silver Star and Archer, Operator shall commence drilling operations of the next well. Operations for drilling of each successor well thereafter shall commence within three-hundred and sixty-five (365) days from and after the cessation of drilling operations in the preceding well, or at a time mutually agreed between the Operator and Archer, until the lease land has been fully developed. As used in the paragraph, the term “cessation of drilling operations” shall not include a temporary stoppage of drilling operations in the same well, nor to a stoppage of longer duration for such purposes where such stoppage is approved in writing by Archer. In the event of a disagreement, Archer shall not unreasonable withhold its consent in these matters.

Liability and Indemnification: Each party hereto shall be liable and responsible for and shall indemnify and hold the harmless (including costs and attorney’s fees) from and against any claim or actions following injury to illness or death of any person and any loss or damage to any property occurring in connection with the performance or non-performance of this agreement only to the extent of its own negligence and that of its agents, servants, employees and contractors.

Authority for Expenditure: Operator shall issue an Authority for Expenditure (“AFE”) thirty (30) days prior to the month in which it intends to conduct a given operation. Silver Star shall pay to the Operator the amount proscribed on the AFE no later than the close of business on the tenth business day following the delivery of the AFE. Any AFE for existing rentals or new lease acquisition shall contain a twenty percent (20%) management fee for Operator. This section of the Agreement does not apply to any AFE or supplemental AFE issued during the course of actual drilling operations. In that instance the Joint Operating Agreement shall govern as to the timeliness of payment.

Insurance: While operations are being conducted hereunder on any leasehold interest covered hereby, Operator agrees to acquire and/or maintain adequate general and automobile liability insurance covering operations hereunder with limits of at least $1 million per occurrence. In addition, Operator agrees to acquire and/or maintain Workmen’s compensation insurance in accordance with applicable state laws and employer’s liability insurance. Operator further agrees, upon request, to furnish Archer and or Silver Star prior to commencing operations, either valid certificates of insurance certifying the above coverage or evidence of Operator being a qualified self-insurer.

1.

In the event Silver Star fails to advance the drilling funds, in a timely manner, for the Test Well or any other prospect cost or leasehold operation, Archer may, at its option, terminate this Agreement in its entirety as to Silver Star by delivering to such Participant a written notice of termination. In the event this Agreement is so terminated, Silver Star shall forfeit all funds previously paid to Archer and have no rights or obligations under this Agreement, except any obligations accruing prior to such termination.

2.

If termination is in conjunction with or prior to the drilling of the initial test well, Silver Star shall immediately forfeit all of its right, title and interest to and in the Prospect. If termination is in conjunction with operations subsequent to the completion of the initial test well, Silver Star shall immediately forfeit all of its right, title and interest to and in the Prospect, with the exception of the well bore and a surrounding area of eighty (80) acres centered on the well bore. In the event Silver Star defaults in the drilling of any well, there shall be no liability on the part of Silver Star for such failure, other than liability for loss or damage occasioned to lands or injury or death as a result of or as a consequence of Operator’s operations hereunder. Upon Operator’s failure to conduct the drilling operations on the test well as provided for herein, Archer may, at its option, take possession of all tools placed thereon by Operator and complete said operations at Archer’s sole cost and liability.

Joint Operating Agreement: All operations on the leased lands within the AMI shall be governed by a mutually acceptable Joint Operating Agreement with, among other attachments, a COPAS Accounting Procedure. The said Joint Operating Agreement and Accounting Procedure is attached hereto as Exhibit ”B”. For the purpose of determining Operator’s reimbursable costs and expenses for any well in which Operator retains a working interest, the said COPAS Accounting Procedure, as herein modified, shall control. In the event of a conflict between the provisions of the Operating Agreement and/or the Accounting Procedure and this Agreement, the terms of the latter shall control.

1.

If operations for a replacement well or reworking operations are not commenced within forty-five (45) days thereafter, Operator shall

immediately inform Archer in writing of such fact and Archer shall have the option, to be exercised within fifteen (15) days, to reacquire free of cost the rights assigned to Silver Star hereunder free and clear of liens and encumbrances insofar as said rights cover and embrace the lands attributable to any such well, if Archer elects to reacquire any of said lease(s) (or any part or interest as herein provided), Archer shall also have the option to acquire any well, together with the material in and around such well then on said lands and necessary in the provisions of this paragraph 14 shall be applicable to all operations conducted by Operator in which Archer, as to the interest in the said lease covered by this Agreement, either does not own a working interest or is not participating in an operation with a working interest.

Operator shall drill all wells necessary to protect the said lands from drainage through offset wells said lease(s).

If Operator should elect to abandon any well either drilled on the said lands or on said unit of production, or if any well either on the said lands or on said unit of production ceases to produce in paying quantities and if actual drilling operation of such well at a price equal to the reasonable salvage value of said materials.

In the event Operator desires to surrender any of the said lease(s) as to all or any part of said lands covered thereby or to allow any of said lease(s) to terminate or expire, Operator shall notify Archer and or Silver Star at least sixty (60) days in advance of the anniversary date specified in such lease (or the date to be surrendered, if other than the anniversary date) and Archer and or Silver Star shall have fifteen (15) days after receipt of such notice of its election to take a reassignment of said lease as to the portion thereof to be relinquished or to be allowed either to expire or terminate. Should Archer and or Silver Star elect to receive a reassignment, it shall be delivered by Operator not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the anniversary date of any such lease (or proposed date of surrender). Any reassignment under terms hereof shall be free of cost to Archer and or Silver Star. In the event that both Archer and Silver Star elect to accept reassignment, the lease shall be apportioned according to their relative proportional interest in the Prospect.

7.

The date any well is shut-in.

8.

The date and amount of payment of any shut-in royalty.

Such written notice shall be given to Archer within five (5) days after the occurrence of each of said items. Archer shall promptly convey that information to Silver Star.

Should Operator commence any well which will be drilling over the end of the primary term of any said lease(s), Operator shall give Archer and or Silver Star written notice of such drilling at least ten (10) days prior to the end of such primary term.

Accounting Statements: If any well is completed as a producer of oil and/or gas in paying quantities, Operator shall furnish within ninety (90) days after the date of completion, to Archer and or Silver Star, an itemized statement of the cost of drilling, testing, completing and equipping the well, together with an inventory of the material and equipment therein, thereon and used in connection therewith and Operator shall thereafter furnish Archer and or Silver Star with a monthly itemized statement of the cost of operations and the quantities and qualities of oil, gas or other minerals which are produced from said well, together with the amount of proceeds from the sale of such production in the preceding month. Such reports, together with a complete well record shall be furnished to Archer and or Silver Star pursuant to the provisions of the COPAS section Exhibit “C” of the Joint Operating Agreement.

Less than Full Leasehold Estate: If a lease described herein covers less that a full oil and gas leasehold estate in any lands described herein under such lease, or if Archer’s interest in such lease covering any lands described herein under such lease is less than the full oil and gas leasehold estate (excluding and disregarding any applicable royalty, overriding royalty, production payment or other burden to which leasehold estate is subject), then the overriding royalty reserved out of the production from the lands in which Archer’s interest in the oil and gas lease bears to the full oil and gas leasehold estate in such land, and the interest in the well in which Archer may acquire a working interest shall be in the proportion that the oil and gas leasehold estate in such lease covering the lands described herein bears to the full oil and gas leasehold estate in said lands.

Extension of Leases: Each extension of any of the said leases, in whole or in part, shall maintain and continue in effect the rights and interests reserved by Archer in said leases so extended and in said lands covered thereby.
