NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements

ARTICLE I
AGREEMENT TO PURCHASE UNITS
Section 1.1. Agreement to Purchase Units. Subject to the terms and
---------------------------
conditions contained in this Agreement, Buyer agrees to purchase from the
Company up to 800,000 Units at a purchase price of $25.00 per Unit. The number
of Units to be purchased by Buyer shall be determined by the Company and stated
in the Takedown Notice given pursuant to Section 1.2. Subject to the
satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Agreement, on the Closing Date
established in accordance with Section 1.2, Buyer shall pay the aggregate
purchase price for the
Units to the Company and the Company shall issue the Preferred Stock and the
Warrants comprising the Units to Buyer. The aggregate purchase price for the
Units (the "Takedown Amount") shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately
available funds to the account designated by the Company. Each Buyer Entity will
fund the portion of the Takedown Amount, and purchase the portion of the Units,
shown below:
EnCap Energy Capital Fund III, L.P. 42.4790%
EnCap Energy Capital Fund III-B, L.P. 32.1269%
BOCP Energy Partners, L.P. 10.3941%
Energy Capital Investment Company PLC 15.0000%
Section 1.2. Takedown. Under this Agreement, the Company may effect one
--------
"Takedown" by giving written notice to Buyer (the "Takedown Notice") stating the
Takedown Amount and the proposed "Closing Date" (which date must be at least 10
business days after the date the Takedown Notice is given and also must be prior
to the Takedown Expiration Date). The "Takedown Expiration Date" shall mean the
earlier of (a) December 31, 2000, (b) the date that the Company consummates a
private or public equity offering (other than an offering of shares in
connection with a merger or acquisition, or an offering to employees under a
stock option or other employee benefit plan), or (c) the date the Company makes
the Special Mandatory Prepayment (as defined in the Credit Facility).
Section 1.3. Preferred Stock. To authorize the Preferred Stock, the
---------------
Company shall adopt and file as necessary with the Secretary of State of
Delaware a Certificate of Designations in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.
---------
The Company shall not amend the Certificate of Designations without the prior
written consent of Buyer. The Company shall not issue any Preferred Stock except
(a) to Buyer on the Closing Date and (b) after the Closing Date in respect of
dividends on outstanding shares of Preferred Stock.
Section 1.4. Warrants. Each Warrant shall entitle the holder thereof to
--------
purchase one share of Common Stock at an initial exercise price of $0.02 per
share. The Warrants will be governed by the terms, and evidenced by certificates
in the form, attached hereto as Exhibit B.
---------
Section 1.5. Reservation of Shares.
---------------------
(a) From and after the Closing Date, the Company will at all times have
authorized, and reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, for the
purpose of enabling it to satisfy any obligation to issue Common Stock upon the
exercise by the holders of the Preferred Stock of their conversion rights, the
number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon such conversion rights. The
Company covenants that all Common Stock issued by it upon conversion of the
Preferred Stock will, upon issuance in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement and the Certificate of Designations, be fully paid and nonassessable.
(b) From and after the Closing Date, the Company will at all times have
authorized, and reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, for the
purpose of enabling it to satisfy any obligation to issue Common Stock upon the
exercise of the Warrants, the number of
-2-
shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of all outstanding Warrants
(whether or not exercisable). The Company covenants that all Common Stock issued
by it upon exercise of Warrants will, upon issuance in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement and the Warrant certificates, be fully paid and nonassessable.
Section 1.6. Restriction on Transfer. Buyer understands and agrees that
-----------------------
the Units consisting of Preferred Stock and Warrants to be issued by the Company
to Buyer on the Closing Date, and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of
the Preferred Stock and exercise of the Warrants (collectively, the
"Securities"), have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act") or any state securities laws, and that
accordingly, they will not be fully transferable except as permitted under
various exemptions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state
securities laws, or upon satisfaction of the registration and prospectus
delivery requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities
laws. Buyer acknowledges that it must bear the economic risk of its investment
in the Securities for an indefinite period of time since they have not been
registered under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws and
therefore cannot be sold unless they are subsequently registered or an exemption
from registration is available. Absent an effective registration statement under
the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws covering the disposition
of the Securities, Buyer will not sell, transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or
otherwise dispose of any or all of the Securities absent a valid exemption from
the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act and
the registration or qualification requirements of any applicable state
securities laws.
Section 1.7. Fees and Expenses.
-----------------
(a) Upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the parties
hereto, the Company shall pay Buyer a standby facility fee equal to $500,000.
The standby facility fee shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available
funds to an account or accounts designated by Buyer.
(b) On the Closing Date, the Company shall pay Buyer a takedown fee equal
to 1 1/2% of the Takedown Amount. This fee, at the Company's option, shall be
paid either (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or
accounts designated by Buyer or (ii) by an offset against the purchase price to
be delivered by Buyer to the Company on the Closing Date.
(c) The Company shall pay directly or reimburse Buyer for payment of the
reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses of its counsel in connection with the
negotiation, preparation and implementation of this Agreement. The Company shall
pay such reimbursement to Buyer in cash no later than 15 days after Buyer
presents a reasonably detailed written summary of such fees and expenses to the
Company.
Section 1.8 Credit Facility. The Company shall require that the Credit
---------------
Facility permit the Company to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement and
the Preferred Stock and the Warrants, including without limitation the
obligations relating to dividends, conversion,
-3-
redemption and repurchase. The Company shall not permit any amendment or
modification to the Credit Facility that would not permit the Company to fulfill
such obligations. The Company shall use the proceeds from the Takedown to make
the Special Mandatory Prepayment (as defined in the Credit Facility).

accumulated or accrued dividends that have not been paid). To the extent Buyer
owns any Warrants at the time of such exchange, then Buyer shall also surrender
to the Company, in consideration for such New Securities, three Warrants per
share of Preferred Stock being surrendered, counting only shares of Preferred
Stock issued on the Closing Date and not counting shares of Preferred Stock
