NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of their mutual undertakings, the Company, the Guarantor, the Lenders, the Syndication Agent, the Administrative Agent and the Lender Counterparty hereby agree as follows:

 

Section 1. Definitions and Interpretations. As used in this Agreement, each of the terms defined in the opening paragraph and the Recitals above shall have the meanings assigned to such terms therein. Each term defined in the Credit Agreement and used herein without definition shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the Credit Agreement, unless expressly provided to the contrary.

Paragraph headings have been inserted in this Agreement as a matter of convenience for reference only and it is agreed that such paragraph headings are not a part of this Agreement and shall not be used in the interpretation of any provision of this Agreement.

 

Section 2. Waiver.

 

(a) The Company hereby acknowledges the existence of the following Events of Default (the "Waiver Defaults"): (i) the Company did not furnish the title opinions required by the Credit Agreement (the "Post-Closing Title Opinions") on or before August 15, 2007, which constitutes an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement, (ii) none of the following occurred on or before August 31, 2007: (A) the occurrence of the Required Capital Date, (B) the deposit of at least $7,500,000 of the amount contributed by Parent to Company on the Required Capital Date in the Collateral Account to be held under the control of Administrative Agent as cash collateral and applied to Other Permitted Capital Expenditures or other expenditures approved in writing by the Required Lenders and (C) the repayment in full of the insurance premium financing Indebtedness described on Schedule 6.1 to the Credit Agreement from sources other than the amounts deposited pursuant to clause (B) above, which constitutes an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement, (iii) the Rail Road Commission of Texas has not approved the P-4 certificates submitted by the Company with respect to the wells operated by the Sellers, which constitutes a failure of the Company to comply with all requirements of the Credit Agreement and therefore constitutes an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement, (iv) a mechanic's and materialman's lien was filed in Chambers County on July 23, 2007 by K-3 Resources, L.P. for unpaid invoices relating to work performed on February 3, 2007, on Well No. 1, Point Barrow SWD Lease, which Lien is not permitted under the Credit Agreement and therefore constitutes an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement, and (v) the existence of the foregoing Events of Default under the Credit Agreement constitutes an Event of Default under the ISDA Agreement.

 

 

(b) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Lenders and the Lender Counterparty, as applicable, hereby waive the Waiver Defaults. The waiver by the Lenders and the Lender Counterparty described in this Section 2 is contingent upon the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth below in this Agreement and is limited to the Waiver Defaults. Such waiver shall not be construed to be a consent to or a permanent waiver of any Section covered by either of the Waiver Defaults or any other terms, provisions, covenants, warranties or agreements contained in the Credit Agreement, the ISDA Agreement, or in any of the other Transaction Documents. The Lenders and the Lender Counterparty reserve the right to exercise any rights and remedies available to them in connection with any other present or future defaults with respect to the Credit Agreement, the ISDA Agreement, or any other provision of any Transaction Document. The description herein of the Waiver Defaults is based upon the information available to the Lenders and the Lender Counterparty on the date hereof and shall not be deemed to exclude the existence of any other Events of Default. The failure of the Lenders or the Lender Counterparty to give notice to any Credit Party of any such other Events of Default is not intended to be nor shall be a waiver thereof. The Company and the Guarantor hereby agree and acknowledge that the Lenders and the Lender Counterparty require and will require strict performance by the Company and the Guarantor of all of their respective obligations, agreements and covenants contained in the Credit Agreement, the ISDA Agreement, and the other Transaction Documents, as amended hereby, and no inaction or action regarding any Event of Default is intended to be or shall be a waiver thereof.

 

(c) Without limitation of the foregoing, any failure (i) to deliver acceptable Post-Closing Title Opinions by the date set forth in Section 8.1(s) of the Credit Agreement (as amended hereby) or to comply with all reasonable requirements made by the Administrative Agent pursuant to such opinions by such date, (ii) of any of the items listed in Section 8.1(n) of the Credit Agreement (as amended hereby) to occur by the date set forth in Section 8.1(n) of the Credit Agreement (as amended hereby), (iii) to obtain any of the approvals required by Section 8.1(v) of the Credit Agreement by the date set forth in Section 8.1(v) of the Credit Agreement, or (iv) to pay any of the obligations required by Section 8.1(w) of the Credit Agreement by the date set forth in Section 8.1(w) of the Credit Agreement or to obtain the release of any related Liens as required thereunder, shall constitute an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement, and any such Event of Default under the Credit Agreement shall constitute an Event of Default under the ISDA Agreement.

 

 

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing waiver of the Waiver Defaults, until the Capitalization Date (as hereinafter defined), for purposes of the following Sections of the Credit Agreement, the Administrative Agent may at its election exercise the rights and receive the benefits, and the Company shall have the obligations, which are applicable under such Sections during the existence of an Event of Default: (i) Section 1.1, definition of "ANCF Capital Expenditures," (ii) Section 1.1, definition of "Permitted G&A Expense Amount," (iii) Section 2.6(c)(ii) (monthly interest payments), (iv) Section 2.8 (default interest), (v) Section 2.19 (collateral account), (vi) Section 5.2(e) (independent engineer's reports); (vii) Section 6.6 (distributions), and (viii) Section 10.6 (assignments).
