THE JEFFREY LEASE PURCHASE, PARTICIPATION AND OPERATIONS AGREEMENT BY AND BETWEEN STRATEX OIL & GAS, INC. AND MESA RESOURCES, INC. NOVEMBER 22, 2013

 

The Parties acknowledge, approve and agree to the following Terms and Conditions:

1.

Stratex hereby agrees to purchase from Mesa 64% working interest and 48.64% net revenue interest (net to gross ratio of 76%) in and to the 60 acre pooled tract described in Exhibit “A” in accordance with the provisions of Exhibit “A” (the Program Overview). In the event of a conflict between the provisions of Exhibit “A” and the provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail.

 

 

2.	Mesa hereby agrees to sell and to convey to Stratex 64% working interest and 48.64% net revenue interest (net to gross ratio of 76%) in and to the 60 acre pooled tract described in Exhibit “A”.

3.

As implied by the before and after payout interests set forth in the Program Overview included in Exhibit “A”, Mesa is entitled to a 1/8th (12.5%) back-in working interest after payout. The 12.5% back-in working interest shall include a net revenue interest of 9.5%. The burden of the back-in interest to Mesa shall be borne by all working interest owners proportional to each working interest owner’s before payout working interest. Accordingly, Stratex shall bear 64% of the back-in and therefore shall assign 8.0% working interest and 6.08% net revenue interest to Mesa or to Mesa’s designee after payout.

 

4.

For the purposes of  the Mesa back-in , the term “after payout”  shall be defined as the first day of the month following the month during which the cumulative net operating income received by Stratex from the Jeffrey Lease equals the Cash Payment made by Stratex to Mesa (see Section 8 of this Agreement)

 

5.

Stratex hereby agrees to participate with its full 64% working interest in the Work Program described in Exhibit “A”. Stratex acknowledges and agrees that Mesa Operating, LLC (“MesaOp”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Mesa Resources, Inc.,  shall serve as the Operator of Record and as Operator in Fact of the Work Program. However, Stratex, as the majority working interest owner, shall be provided timely and accurate reports on all activities under the Work Program, shall have the right to participate with MesaOp in significant operational decisions, and shall have the right to have a representative of its choice observe any or all aspects of the Work Program.

 

6.

Mesa hereby attests that it has sold the other 36% working interest and 27.36% net revenue interest in and to the 60 acre pooled tract to third parties (the “Third Party Working Interest Owners”). The names, amounts of working and net revenue interests, addresses for notices and billing purposes and other essential contact data for the Third Party Working Interest owners are to be listed in Exhibit “A” to the JOA described in Paragraph 16 below.  Mesa further attests that the Third Party Working Interest Owners are obligated to participate in the Work Program with their combined 36% working interest and that 100% of the funds required to pay the Third Party Working interest Owners share of the Work Program costs are in Mesa’s possession.

 

7.

The price to be paid by Stratex to Mesa for its purchase of 64% working interest in the Property and for its share of the costs of the Work Program (the “Purchase and Participation Price”) shall include a cash payment of $300,800.00 (the “Cash Payment”) and the assignment to Mesa of 150,000 shares of the common stock of Stratex Oil & Gas Holdings, Inc.

 

8.

The Purchase and Participation Price is an all- inclusive fixed turnkey price. Stratex shall not be responsible for any portion of cost over-runs, if any, nor be entitled to the benefits of cost savings, if any,  resulting from Work Program activities. However, in the event any of the new wells drilled under the Work Program are deemed to be dry holes based on open hole evaluation and the Parties elect not to set production casing on that well or wells, a fair and reasonable estimate of what the completion cost of that well or wells would have been shall be provided to Stratex by Mesa.  Stratex’s share of the un-expended completion costs shall then be refunded to Stratex.

 

9.

The transaction contemplated by this Agreement shall be closed and funded (“Closing”) on or before November 27, 2013. At Closing Stratex shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Mesa the Cash Payment and a stock certificate or stock certificates as directed by Mesa and Mesa shall deliver to Stratex an Assignment and Bill of Sale in the form of the assignment and Bill of Sale attached hereto as Exhibit “D”. Each Party shall also deliver at Closing all other closing documents as set forth below and/or as agreed upon between the Parties.

 

10.

MesaOp shall commence the activities described in the Work Program as soon as possible after closing and funding occurs and shall diligently conduct said operations without interruption until the Work Program is complete. It is anticipated that all activities included in the Work Program will be completed prior to December 31, 2013.

 

11.

Upon completion of the Work Program Stratex shall have the right but not the obligation to assume operatorship of the pooled 60 acre tract referred to herein as the Jeffrey Lease. Stratex may exercise this right at the time of its choice and  at its sole discretion. To facilitate an orderly transition of operatorship from MesaOp to Stratex, MesaOp shall deliver to Stratex at closing un-dated but signed duplicate originals of Railroad Commission FORM P-4. The P-4’s shall designate Stratex Oil & Gas, Inc. as the new operator of the Jeffrey Lease.

 

 

12.

The Parties agree to establish an Area of Mutual Interest (“AMI”) centered around the Jeffrey Lease and to enter into an AMI Agreement. The AMI shall be a square with each side five miles in length. The east and west boundaries of the square shall be parallel lines that run north and south and the north and south boundaries of the square shall be parallel lines that run east and west. The five-mile square shall be centered on the location of the Jeffrey A #1 well.

 

13.

The AMI Agreement shall set forth provisions pertaining to the acquisition and exploitation of additional leases and opportunities within the AMI by the Parties. The AMI Agreement shall be executed by the Parties prior to or simultaneously with Closing with the Parties exchanging fully executed copies of the AMI Agreement at Closing.

 

14.

Among other provisions to be included in the AMI Agreement, one of the primary provisions will be a commitment by Mesa and its principal, Mr. Kevin Chennault, to make a good faith, best efforts attempt to transfer to Stratex the good will that Mesa and Mr. Chennault enjoy with local landowners, ranchers and the community at large but especially with Mr. Jeffrey and Mr. Davis.

 

15.	Mesa shall make a good faith effort to get the Third Party Working Interest Owners to join the AMI Agreement.

 

16.

Operations of the Jeffrey Lease subsequent to completion of the Work Program will require a Joint Operating Agreement (“JOA”) among the working interest owners. Mesa must be a party to the JOA by virtue of its back-in entitlement. Prior to closing the Parties shall negotiate and execute a mutually acceptable JOA. Prior to Closing Mesa shall obtain an executed copy of the JOA from each of the Third Party Working Interest Owners. At Closing Mesa shall deliver to Stratex a copy of the JOA executed by all working interest owners or multiple copies of the JOA executed in kind by each working interest owner.

 

17.	In the event there is a delay between completion of the Work Program and assumption of operatorship by Stratex, Mesa shall operate the Property in accordance with the JOA.

 

18.	Also in the event there is a delay between completion of the Work Program and the assumption of operatorship by Stratex, Mesa agrees to cause the crude oil purchaser to set up Stratex for direct payment of its share of revenue from oil sales.

 

 

19.

In lieu of completing the Purchaser Questionnaire provided by Mesa, Stratex hereby assures Mesa that it is a qualified Purchaser and has the ability and the authority to proceed with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. Stratex further agrees to provide whatever additional information is necessary to complete the transaction and/or to operate the Property in an orderly fashion.

 

20.	Additional Terms and Conditions may be added to this Agreement by mutual agreement in writing between the Parties.
