EXHIBIT 10X Shareholder
Communications Corporation
PROPOSAL/AGREEMENT
This document constitutes the AGREEMENT between TELLURIAN INC. ("TLRN"), and
SHAREHOLDER COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION ("SCC"), relating to the exchange offer
for warrants. The services to be provided by SCC as Information Agent, will be
as follows:
INSTITUTIONAL SERVICING
SCC will contact all brokers, banks, depositories and other institutions holding
Warrants. as shown on appropriate portions of TLRN's Warrant lists, the CEDE
list, and other depository lists, if any, to ascertain that each intermediary
has notified its clients.
SCC will maintain frequent contact with brokers and banks to monitor response
and to insure that all liaison procedures are proceeding satisfactorily and will
maximize contact with the intermediaries and to underlying owners, also known as
"NOBO's."
SCC will use its best efforts to reach underlying non-NOBO holders directly, in
situations where SCC feels it is necessary to contact such holders. SCC will
employ such means as necessary, relying on SCC's experience, to reach these
holders.
INDIVIDUAL SERVICING
With respect to individual and other holders who do not hold Warrants in street
name or in nominee accounts, SCC will mount a very comprehensive telephone
contact effort designed to reach all of those holders in their homes or offices.
In connection with this function, TLRN will instruct their transfer agent to
supply SCC with appropriate data so that each individual may be contacted by
mail and telephone.
SCC will obtain telephone numbers for holders and immediately telephone holders
who have not yet acted and employ accelerated transmittal procedures in order to
get the data to the owners.
Such telephone contacts will include, but are not limited to, confirming that
holders have received details by mail (SCC will be expected to remail via
Federal Express such remails in the event the holders have either failed to
receive the materials or have discarded same); that such holders understand the
significance of the upcoming deadline and finally, that holders are fully
conversant with the procedure to be used for responding.

this type and will not engage in any activity that constitutes an offer to sell,
or a solicitation of an offer to buy the securities subject to the Warrants in
any jurisdiction. SCC will not coerce, influence, or pressure any Warrantholder
at any time to take any action whatsoever, nor will SCC recommend or advise any
Warrantholder to take any action. In cases where a Warrantholder is seeking
advice on such investment, SCC will suggest such holder contact their financial
adviser.
