Area of Mutual Interest The “ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Well #1” leases and any new lease to be acquired under this agreement, identified within the legal descriptions above, shall be designated as an Area of Mutual Interest (“AMI”) which shall expire on the termination of this Agreement. If any party hereunder acquires any interest within the AMI, the acquiring party will notify the non-acquiring party in writing of the terms of the acquisition and any costs and/or obligations incurred pursuant thereto within fifteen (15) days following the acquisition. The non-acquiring party will elect in writing within thirty (30) days from its receipt of such notice, as to its election to participate or not participate with its proportionate share of the acquisition. Each non-acquiring party’s election to participate will be accompanied by payment of its share of costs associated with the acquisition. If the non-acquiring party elects not to participate with its proportionate share of the acquisition, the acquiring party may retain the interest for its own benefit. The non-acquiring party’s failure to respond and make payment within the designated time frame shall be deemed an election not to participate in the acquisition. If the interest acquired covers lands lying partially inside and partially outside the boundaries of the AMI, the acquiring party shall offer the entirety of such interest to the non-acquiring party. If a non-acquiring party acquires its proportionate share of such interest, the lands lying outside the AMI and covered by the interest acquired, shall become a part of the “ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Well # 1” Lease and any new lease to be acquired subject to this Agreement and the AMI shall be enlarged to include said lands. Each lease, right, title or interest acquired under the terms of this AMI shall be subject solely to the burdens specified in this agreement and shall include specifically the carried working Interest specified in herein above. The prospect needs to be evaluated by Purchaser’s verification efforts with the understanding that a certain amount of risk is involved in the search and joint venture of oil production in this field despite third party geological reports and efforts by Seller to determine that there are economic quantities of oil to be produced from the “▇▇▇▇▇▇ Lease” lease or any new lease to be acquired under this agreement. Seller does not normally deal with individuals or companies who are not other oil companies or experienced service contractors or sophisticated investors, and it is understood all parties have experience in the oil and gas industry or understand the risks associated with doing business within that industry. Seller acquired the property but has no first-hand experience and was relying on the Operator to finalize the start-up and maintain the property, sell was acquired for investment property.
Dual Interests It is understood that some person or persons may be directors, officers, or shareholders of both the Fund and Price Associates (including Price Associates’ affiliates), and that the existence of any such dual interest shall not affect the validity of this Agreement or of any transactions hereunder except as otherwise provided by a specific provision of applicable law.
Area of Interest There shall be an area of mutual interest which shall comprise that area which is within one (1) mile of the outermost boundary of each of the patented and unpatented mining claims which constitute the Assets (the “Area of Interest”) as at the date of this Amended and Restated Transfer and Assumption Agreement. If at any time Assignor stakes, locates or otherwise acquires, directly or indirectly, any right to or interest in any unpatented mining claim, license, lease, grant, concession, permit, patent or other mineral property located wholly or partly within the Area of Interest, then Assignor shall within thirty (30) days transfer such right or interest to Assignee without any cost or expense to Assignee whatsoever. If at any time Assignee stakes, locates or otherwise acquires, directly or indirectly, any right to or interest in any unpatented mining claim, license, lease, grant, concession, permit, patent or other mineral property located wholly or partly within the Area of Interest, including any such right or interest acquired from Assignor as set forth above (the “Acquired Asset”), then such interest or right shall thereafter form part of the Assets for all purposes of this Amended and Restated Transfer and Assumption Agreement, and Assignee shall grant BHI a Royalty on the Acquired Asset as set forth in Section 1.3 above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any Acquired Asset is burdened by any other royalty of any kind whatsoever, then Assignee’s obligation to grant BHI a Royalty shall only apply to the excess between the other royalty and a maximum of 3%. For example and for purposes of clarity, if an Acquired Asset is burdened by a 2% net smelter return royalty, then BHI shall only be due a 1% net smelter return royalty, for a total royalty burden on the Acquired Asset of 3%. Similarly, if an Acquired Asset is burdened by a 3% net smelter return royalty, then BHI shall not be due any Royalty on the Acquired Asset whatsoever.
Residual Interest Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company is hereby authorized to retain from amounts otherwise distributable to the Holders of the Class R-2 Residual Interest on any Distribution Date sufficient funds to reimburse the Company for the payment of such tax (to the extent that the Company has not been previously reimbursed therefor).
Interim Interest If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans; provided that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section 2.13(d) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.
