(a) The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the State of Delaware and is duly licensed or qualified to transact business as a foreign corporation and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business transacted by it or the character of the properties owned or leased by it requires such licensing or qualification, except where the failure to be so licensed, qualified or in good standing in any jurisdiction other than Delaware could not reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the Company. The Company and its subsidiaries have the requisite corporate power and authority to own and hold their properties and to carry on their business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted, to execute, deliver and perform the Transaction Documents to which they are a party, and to issue, sell and deliver the Purchased Shares.

(b) The Company’s execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the issuance, sale and delivery of the Purchased Shares, and the application of the proceeds thereof will not (i) result in a violation of the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (as amended, the “Charter”), the Company’s Bylaws (as amended, the “Bylaws”) or any other organizational document of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (ii) result in a violation of any applicable Law, any rule or regulation of any self-regulatory organization or other nongovernmental regulatory authority, or any material order, injunction, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority, (iii) conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute (or, with due notice or lapse of time or both, constitute) a default under, or give rise to any right of termination, acceleration or cancellation under, any material indenture, agreement, contract, license, arrangement, understanding, evidence of indebtedness, note, lease or other instrument to which the Company, any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective properties or assets is bound, (iv) result in the creation or imposition of any material Lien upon the Company, any of its subsidiaries or any of their material properties or assets or (v) require any consent, approval, notification, waiver or other similar action from any third party. No provision of the Transaction Documents violates, conflicts with, results in a breach of or constitutes (or, with due notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute) a default by any other party under any material indenture, agreement, contract, license, arrangement, understanding, evidence of indebtedness, note, lease or other instrument to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party.

(c) Section 3(c) of the Company Disclosure Schedule sets forth a true and complete list of each of the Company’s subsidiaries and each such subsidiary’s jurisdiction of incorporation or organization. Each subsidiary of the Company is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the jurisdiction of its organization and is duly licensed or qualified to transact business as a foreign corporation and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business transacted by it or the character of the properties owned or leased by it requires such licensing or qualification, except where the failure to be so licensed, qualified or in good standing in any jurisdiction other than its jurisdiction of organization could not reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect such subsidiary. The Company, directly or indirectly, owns 100% of the equity interests of each subsidiary of the Company, free and clear of all Liens.

(d) True, correct and complete copies of the Charter, the Bylaws and the other organizational documents of the Company and its subsidiaries are attached to Section 3(d)(i) of the Company Disclosure Schedule. All such organizational documents have

been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the parties thereto and are valid and legally binding agreements of the Company and its affiliates, enforceable against such Person in accordance with their respective terms except to the extent limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws of general application related to the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity. Other than as set forth in Section 3(d)(ii) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, the Company has not, and to its knowledge no stockholder of the Company has, entered into a stockholders agreement, voting agreement or similar agreement or arrangement with respect to the stock of the Company or any securities or other instruments into which the stock of the Company will be converted or exchanged.

(e) Subject to the accuracy of Purchaser’s representations and warranties set forth in Section 4, no registration or filing with, or consent or approval of or other action by, any Governmental Authority or any third party is or will be necessary for the Company’s valid execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the issuance, sale and delivery of the Purchased Shares, other than those (i) which have previously been obtained or made or (ii) required under the state securities or “Blue Sky” Laws, which will be obtained or made, and will be effective within the time periods required by law. Subject to the accuracy of Purchaser’s representations and warranties set forth in Section 4, the issuance, sale and delivery of the Purchased Shares to Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and neither the Company nor, to the Company’s knowledge, any Person acting on its behalf, has taken nor will take any action hereafter that would cause the loss of such exemption.

(f) All corporate action required to be taken by the Company or any of its shareholders for the authorization, issuance, sale and delivery of the Purchased Shares, the execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby shall have been validly taken. Each of the Transaction Documents has been duly executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except to the extent limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws of general application related to the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity.

(g) The Company has authorized capital stock totaling 205,467,851 shares, which consists of 5,467,851 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Preferred Stock”), all of which shares of Preferred Stock have been designated Series A Preferred Stock, and 200,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”). Immediately prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, 109,609,000 shares of Common Stock and 5,467,851 shares of Series A Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding.

(h) All of the outstanding shares of Common Stock have been duly authorized, are validly issued, fully paid, and nonassessable, and have been issued in compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations, and are not subject to any preemptive rights. There are no preemptive rights to purchase any securities of the Company or any of its subsidiaries. Except as set forth in Section 3(h) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, there are no outstanding options, warrants or other rights to purchase, agreements or other obligations to issue, or rights to convert any obligations into or exchange any securities for, shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

(i) The Purchased Shares have been duly authorized and, when issued in accordance with this Agreement, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock and will be free and clear of all Liens, other than Liens that were created by Purchaser and restrictions on transfer imposed by this Agreement, the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. None of the issuance, sale or delivery of the Purchased Shares is subject to any preemptive or other purchase right of the Company’s stockholders or to any right of first refusal or other right in favor of any Person. The consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not result in any anti-dilution adjustment or other similar adjustment to any of the Company’s outstanding securities. Any Person with any right (other than Purchaser) to purchase securities of the Company, which right would be triggered as a result of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, has waived such rights. Except as set forth in Section 3(i) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, no Person has any preemptive or similar rights with regard to the Company’s securities.

(j) Except as described in the Charter, there are no restrictions upon the voting or transfer of, any equity interests of the Company. Except for such rights that have been waived, the offering and sale of the Purchased Shares as contemplated by this Agreement does not give rise to any rights for or relating to the registration of any equity interests of the Company.

(k) Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is, and immediately after the sale of the Purchased Shares hereunder and the application of the net proceeds from such sale none of the Company nor any of its subsidiaries will be, an “investment company” or an entity “controlled” by an “investment company,” as such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Other than the GE Registration Rights Agreement, the Company has not entered into any agreements or arrangements regarding the registration of the issuance or resale of the Company’s securities or the securities issuable in exchange therefore pursuant to the Magellan Merger Agreement.

(l) No broker, finder or investment banker is entitled to any brokerage, finder’s or other fee or commission from the Company, any of its subsidiaries or Purchaser with respect to the sale of any of the Purchased Shares or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of the Company or any of its affiliates.

(m) The Company shall use the net proceeds from Purchaser’s purchase of the Purchased Shares for capital and administrative costs and expenses related to the establishment and development of a business whose principal activities are focused on developing LNG liquefaction facilities, engaging in oil and gas exploration, production, transportation and storage, and related activities as well as for general corporate purposes.

(n) To the Company’s knowledge, all representations and warranties set forth in the Magellan Merger Agreement are true and correct in all material respects and there has been no breach or default thereof (or with due notice or lapse of time or both, no occurrence that would constitute a breach or default thereof).

(o) Except as set forth in Section 3(o) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, there are no actions, suits, claims, investigations, orders, injunctions or proceedings pending or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened or contemplated, to which the Company, any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective directors or officers is or would be a party or to which any of their respective properties is or would be subject at law or in equity, before or by any Governmental Authority, or before or by any self-regulatory organization or other nongovernmental regulatory authority.

(p) The Company and, to the Company’s knowledge, the Company’s directors and officers, in their capacities as such, are in compliance in all material respects with all applicable provisions of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002 and the rules and regulations promulgated in connection therewith.

(q) Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has, directly or indirectly, (i) made or authorized any contribution, payment or gift of funds or property to any official, employee or agent of any Governmental Authority of any jurisdiction or (ii) made any contribution to any candidate for public office, in either case, where either the payment or the purpose of such contribution, payment or gift was, is or would be prohibited under any applicable Anti-Corruption Laws (as defined below) of any relevant jurisdiction covering a similar subject matter as in effect on or prior to the Effective Date applicable to the Company and its subsidiaries and their respective operations. The Company has instituted and maintained policies and procedures designed to ensure compliance with such Laws.

(r) None of the Company, any of its subsidiaries or any of its affiliates, nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents or other representatives, or anyone acting on behalf of any of the foregoing, is aware of or has taken, any action, directly or indirectly, that would result in a violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, the UK Xxxxxxx Xxx 0000 or any analogous anticorruption Laws applicable to the Company, any of its subsidiaries or any of its affiliates or the Purchaser as applicable

(collectively, “Anti-Corruption Laws”), including offering, paying, promising to pay or authorizing the payment of money or anything of value to a foreign governmental official or any other Person while knowing or having a reasonable belief that all or some portion of it would be given to a foreign governmental official and used for the purpose of (i) influencing any act or decision of a foreign governmental official or other Person, including a decision to fail to perform official functions, (ii) inducing any foreign governmental official or other Person to do or omit to do any act in violation of the lawful duty of such official, (iii) securing any improper advantage, or (iv) inducing any foreign governmental official to use influence with any Governmental Authority in order to affect any act or decision of such Governmental Authority, in order to assist the Company, any of its subsidiaries or any of its affiliates in obtaining or retaining business with, or directing business to, any Person, in each case, in violation of any applicable Anti-Corruption Laws.

(s) No proceeding by or before any Governmental Authority involving the Company, any of its subsidiaries or any of its affiliates, or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, or agents, or anyone acting on behalf of the foregoing, with respect to any applicable Anti-Corruption Laws is pending or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened. No civil or criminal penalties have been imposed on the Company, any of its subsidiaries or any of its affiliates with respect to violations of any applicable Anti-Corruption Law, nor have any disclosures been submitted to any Governmental Authority with respect to violations of the Anti-Corruption Laws.

(t) The operations of the Company and its subsidiaries are and have been conducted at all times in compliance with applicable Law, including financial recordkeeping and reporting requirements of the Currency and Foreign Transactions Reporting Act of 1970, the money laundering statutes of all jurisdictions, the rules and regulations thereunder and any related or similar rules, regulations or guidelines, issued, administered or enforced by any Governmental Authority (collectively, the “Money Laundering Laws”) and no action, suit or proceeding by or before any Governmental Authority or any arbitrator involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries with respect to the Money Laundering Laws is pending or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened.

(u) To the Company’s knowledge, there are no material impediments (other than approval by the Company’s shareholders and Magellan Petroleum’s shareholders and resolving all outstanding comments from the SEC with respect to the Registration Statement) to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Magellan Merger Agreement. In the Company’s reasonable belief, the outstanding comments from the SEC with respect to the Registration Statement are not material in nature, and neither those comments nor the other conditions precedent set forth in the Magellan Merger Agreement (other than the respective shareholder votes) are expected to materially impede or impact the transactions contemplated by the Magellan Merger Agreement.

(v) Purchaser has reviewed the materials set forth on and described in Section 3(v) of the Company Disclosure Schedule (such materials, the “Evaluation Materials”). Purchaser has not been furnished any materials relating to the offering or sale of the Purchased Shares other than the Transaction Documents and the Evaluation Materials, and has relied only on the information contained in the Transaction Documents or contained in or referred to in the Evaluation Materials. To the Company’s knowledge, none of the Evaluation Materials contains any untrue statement of a material fact, or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein, in light of the circumstances in which they are made, not misleading. The information provided by the Company for inclusion in the Registration Statement does not, and will not, at the time such Registration Statement becomes effective, contain any untrue statement of a material fact, or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein, in light of the circumstances in which they are made, not misleading.

(w) The Company’s assets consist of 139 acres of real property purchased for $9,000,000 on March 24, 2016; cash; and cash equivalents. To the Company’s knowledge, the aggregate fair market value of all real property owned by the Company is below $78,200,000. To the Company’s knowledge, there are no other material assets held by the Company.

(x) The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to expeditiously consummate the transactions contemplated by the Magellan Merger Agreement.

(y) Except as set forth in Section 3(y) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has agreed to guarantee the performance or payment obligations (absolute or contingent) of any other Person (other than the Company or any subsidiary of the Company) under any material contract (including any instruments or agreements of material indebtedness).

(z) The Company agrees that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, it shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Laws to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to satisfy the conditions hereof as promptly as practicable.

4. Representations and Warranties of Purchaser. Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Company that:

(a) Purchaser is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act.

(c) The Purchased Shares are being acquired for its own account for the purpose of investment and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act.

Representatives of Purchaser began discussions regarding the potential for the investment represented by this Agreement with representatives of the Company before the Registration Statement was filed with the SEC; accordingly, Purchaser’s purchase of the Purchased Shares was not solicited by the Registration Statement but rather by a pre-existing relationship with the Company.

6. Termination.

(a) The parties may terminate this Agreement as follows:

(i) This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing by mutual written consent of the Purchaser and the Company.

(ii) The Purchaser may terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice to the Company at any time prior to the Closing in the event (i) the Company is in material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of the Company shall have become untrue in any material respect, (ii) the Purchaser has notified the Company of the breach or untruth in writing, (iii) such breach or untruth would (if it occurred or was continuing as of the Closing Date) result in the failure of any conditions set forth in Sections 5(a)(i) or 5(a)(ii), and (iv) such breach or untruth is incapable of being cured, or is not cured, by the Company on or prior to January 31, 2017 (the “Outside Date”).

(iii) The Company may terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice to the Purchaser at any time prior to the Closing in the event (i) the Purchaser is in material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of the Purchaser shall have become untrue in any material respect, (ii) the Company has notified the Purchaser of the breach or untruth in writing, (iii) such breach or untruth would (if it occurred or was continuing as of the Closing Date) result in the failure of any conditions set forth in Sections 5(b)(i) or 5(b)(ii), and (iv) such breach or untruth is incapable of being cured, or is not cured, by the Purchaser on or prior to the Outside Date.

Such termination by a party shall be made by delivering written notice of its determination to so terminate to the other party.

(b) If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 6, all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder will terminate without any liability of any party; provided, however, that nothing herein will relieve any party to this Agreement from liability for fraud or any intentional, willful or bad faith breach occurring prior to termination.

(c) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that an award of money damages would be inadequate for any breach of this Agreement by any party and any such breach would cause the non-breaching parties irreparable harm. Accordingly, the parties hereto agree that prior to the termination of this Agreement, in the event of any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement by one of the parties, the parties will also be entitled, without the requirement of posting a bond or other security, to equitable relief, including injunctive relief and specific performance, provided such party is not in material default hereunder. Such remedies will not be the exclusive remedies for any breach of this Agreement but will be in addition to all other remedies available at law or equity to each of the parties.

7. Legend. Until such time as the Purchased Shares have been sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, or the Purchased Shares are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, any certificate(s) representing the Purchased Shares sold pursuant to this Agreement will be imprinted (and any Purchased Shares issued in book entry form will have a notation in the Company’s stock transfer records) with a legend in substantially the following form:

“THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT (1) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR (2) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, IN EACH CASE IN ACCORDANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND THE SECURITIES LAWS OF OTHER JURISDICTIONS, AND IN THE CASE OF A TRANSACTION EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION, UNLESS THE COMPANY HAS RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO IT THAT SUCH TRANSACTION DOES NOT REQUIRE REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND SUCH OTHER APPLICABLE LAWS.”

In connection with a sale of Purchased Shares in reliance on Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, Purchaser or its broker shall deliver to the Company a broker representation letter providing to the Company any information the Company deems necessary to determine that such sale is made in compliance with Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, including, as may be appropriate, a certification that Purchaser is not an affiliate of the Company (as defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the

Securities Act) and a certification as to the length of time the applicable equity interests have been held. Upon receipt of such representation letter, the Company shall promptly remove the restrictive legend, and the Company shall bear all costs associated with the removal of such legend. At such time as the Purchased Shares have been sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or have been held by Purchaser for more than one year where Purchaser is not, and has not been in the preceding three months, an affiliate of the Company (as defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act), if the restrictive legend is still in place, the Company agrees, upon request of Purchaser, to take all steps necessary to promptly effect the removal of such legend, and the Company shall bear all costs associated with such removal of such legend. The Company shall cooperate with Purchaser to effect the removal of such legend at any time such legend is no longer appropriate.

8. Indemnification.

(a) All representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein and all related rights to indemnification shall survive the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(b) Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Section 8, the Company shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser, its affiliates and their respective stockholders, directors, officers and employees (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnified Parties”) from and against all claims, judgments, damages, liabilities, settlements, losses, costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and disbursements (collectively, “Losses”), arising from or relating to (i) any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of the Company contained in the Transaction Documents or any document to be delivered hereunder; (ii) any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by the Company pursuant to the Transaction Documents or any document to be delivered hereunder; and (iii) the Xxxxxx Matter; provided, however, that, for purposes of this clause (iii), the amount of Losses for which Company shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall in no event be less than Purchaser’s percentage ownership interest in the Company (or, after the consummation of the merger contemplated by the Magellan Merger Agreement, Magellan Petroleum) on a fully-diluted basis at the time such Loss constituting an obligation to pay pursuant to an arbitral award, judgment of any court or tribunal or settlement arises multiplied by the aggregate amount of Losses arising from or relating to the Xxxxxx Matter.

(c) Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Section 8, Purchaser shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its affiliates and their respective stockholders, directors, officers and employees from and against all claims, judgments, damages, liabilities, settlements, losses, costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and disbursements, arising from or relating to (i) any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of Purchaser contained in the Transaction Documents or any

document to be delivered hereunder or (ii) any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by Purchaser pursuant to the Transaction Documents or any document to be delivered hereunder.

(d) Whenever any claim shall arise for indemnification hereunder, the party entitled to indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly provide written notice of such claim to the other party (the “Indemnifying Party”), but failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability it may have to such Indemnified Party hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure. Any such notice shall state the nature and the basis of such claim to the extent then known. In connection with any claim giving rise to indemnity hereunder resulting from or arising out of any claim, action, suit, proceeding or governmental investigation by a Person who is not a party to this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party, at its sole cost and expense and upon written notice to the Indemnified Party, may assume the defense of any such claim, action, suit, proceeding or governmental investigation with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any such claim, action, suit, proceeding or governmental investigation, with its counsel and at its own cost and expense. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of any such claim, action, suit, proceeding or governmental investigation, the Indemnified Party may, but shall not be obligated to, defend against such claim, action, suit, proceeding or governmental investigation in such manner as it may deem appropriate, including settling such claim, action, suit, proceeding or governmental investigation, after giving notice of it to the Indemnifying Party, on such terms as the Indemnified Party may deem appropriate and no action taken by the Indemnified Party in accordance with such defense and settlement shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations herein provided with respect to any damages resulting therefrom.
