OF THE SECOND PART

WHEREAS the Grantor holds an interest in the Royalty Lands and Leases as hereinafter defined; and WHEREAS, in consideration of good and valuable consideration received, the Grantor has agreed to grant and to pay to the Royalty Owner an Overriding Royalty effective as of the date hereof, the terms and conditions of which are provided for in this agreement.

NOW THEREFORE this Agreement witnesseth that in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth and contained herein, the parties agree as follows:

1. DEFINITIONS

In this Agreement, including this clause, unless the context otherwise requires:

(a)

"Condensate" means a mixture of mainly pentanes and heavier hydrocarbons that may be contaminated with sulphur compounds, that is recovered or is recoverable at a Well from an underground reservoir and that may be gaseous in its virgin reservoir state but is liquid at the condition under which its volume is measured or estimated;

(b)

"Crude Oil" means a mixture mainly of pentanes and heavier hydrocarbons that may be contaminated with sulphur compounds, that is recovered or is recoverable at a Well from an underground reservoir and that is liquid at the conditions under which its volume is measured or estimated, and includes all other hydrocarbon mixtures so recovered or recoverable except natural gas or Condensate;

(c)	"Current Market Value" means the price at which Petroleum Substances are sold by the Grantor calculated at the Royalty Determination Point, which price is not unreasonable having regard to market conditions applicable to similar production in arm's length transactions at the time of such disposition including, without restricting the generality of the foregoing, such factors as the volumes available, the kind and quality of Petroleum Substances to be sold, the effective date of the sale, the term of the sale agreement, the point of sale of the Petroleum Substances and the type of transportation service available for the delivery of the Petroleum Substances to be sold;

(d)	"Leases" means the respective documents of title and any extension or renewal of such documents pursuant to which the Grantor holds an interest in the Royalty Lands;

(e)	"Overriding Royalty" means the overriding royalty granted pursuant to Clause 2 hereof;

(f)	"Petroleum Substances" means Crude Oil, Condensate, natural gas and related hydrocarbons and all other substances produced in association therewith but only to the extent that the same are granted by the Leases;

(g)	"Raw Gas" has the meaning prescribed by the Regulations;

(h)	"Regulations" means all statutes, laws, rules, orders, regulations or directives in effect from time to time and made by any governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Royalty Lands and the operations to be conducted thereon;

(i)	"Royalty Determination Point" means the first point of measurement downstream from the wellhead after the initial treatment of the produced substances for the separation and removal of basic sediment and water from the Petroleum Substances;

(j)	"Royalty Lands" means the specified undivided working interest(s) in the lands set forth in Schedule "A";

(k)	"Spacing Unit" means the area allocated to a Well (or the area which would be allocated to a well, but for a plan of unitization) pursuant to the Regulations for the purpose of producing Petroleum Substances; and

(l)	"Well" means any well on the Royalty Lands or on lands pooled with the Royalty Lands.

2. GRANT OF OVERRIDING ROYALTY

Grantor hereby grants to the Royalty Owner an interest in respect of the Petroleum Substances within, upon or under the Royalty Lands equal to one (1%) percent of the gross monthly production produced from the Royalty Lands.

3. QUANTIFICATION OF OVERRIDING ROYALTY

If Royalty Owner does not take possession of and separately dispose of its share of Petroleum Substances, the Overriding Royalty shall be quantified and paid on the gross proceeds of the sale of such Petroleum Substances without any deductions, except the following, namely:

(a)	with respect to Crude Oil and Condensate, a proportionate share of the actual costs of transportation from the Royalty Determination Point to market connection;

(b)	with respect to Petroleum Substances other than Crude Oil and Condensate, a proportionate share of the cost of transportation, gathering and processing, providing that such costs are no greater than those allowed from time to time by the Crown in the right of the Province of Alberta in calculating its royalty.

4. OVERRIDING ROYALTY TAKEN IN KIND

(a)	The Royalty Owner shall have the right to take in kind the Royalty Owner's share of Petroleum Substances. Such right may be exercised separately with respect to Condensate, Crude Oil, Raw Gas, and any other individual Petroleum Substance. In the case of Crude Oil and Condensate, such right when exercised shall be done on a minimum of thirty (30) days notice to the Grantor. In the case of all other Petroleum Substances such right when exercised shall be done on a minimum of six (6) months notice to the Grantor. If the Royalty Owner, however, signifies in writing its consent to the sale of any of the Royalty Owner's share of Petroleum Substances under a contract made by the Grantor providing for a minimum term in excess of the said respective notice periods, the Royalty Owner's right to take in kind any Petroleum Substances subject to such contract shall be suspended during the term of such contract. The Royalty Owner may cease to take in kind any Petroleum Substances upon giving the Grantor the same minimum notice as provided above for the Royalty Owner to take such Petroleum Substances in kind as aforesaid. The right to take in kind or to cease to take in kind may be exercised from time to time subject only to the foregoing provisions of this Subclause.

(b)	When the Royalty Owner is taking in kind the Royalty Owner's share of any Petroleum Substances, the Grantor shall at no cost to the Royalty Owner remove basic sediment and water therefrom in accordance with good oilfield practice, and:

	(i)	in respect to Crude Oil and Condensate: the Grantor shall deliver the Royalty Owner's share to the Royalty Owner, or its nominee, at the tank outlets, or comparable delivery point, in accordance with usual and customary pipeline and shipping practice, free and clear of all charges whatsoever except to the extent that the Royalty Determination Point is an earlier point in which case the costs of moving product from the Royalty Determination Point to the delivery point will be deductible by the Grantor from the Overriding Royalty. The Royalty Owner shall have the right to use free of charge a share of the Grantor's lease tankage and storage facilities to store a maximum of ten (10) days accumulation of the Royalty Owner's share of Crude Oil and Condensate; and

	(ii)	in respect to Raw Gas: the Grantor shall deliver the Royalty Owner's share to the Royalty Owner, or its nominee, at the Royalty Determination Point of the relevant well, provided that to the extent the Royalty Owner so requests on reasonable notice to the Grantor and the Grantor can reasonably comply with such request, the Grantor shall gather, compress, transport, treat and process such share of Raw Gas along with the Grantor's share of Raw Gas from the applicable well or xxxxx and deliver to the Royalty Owner at their relevant plant outlet, the Royalty Owner's Overriding Royalty share of marketable gas and other Petroleum Substances obtained from such share of Raw Gas, in which event, the Royalty Owner shall be responsible for:

	A.	its proportionate share of the costs of gathering, compressing, transporting, treating and processing such Raw Gas where the Grantor or an Affiliate thereof does not own such facilities; or

	B.	where the Grantor or an Affiliate thereof owns such facilities, such fee as may be agreed upon by the Grantor and the Royalty Owner for the use of such facilities to make marketable the Royalty Owner's Overriding Royalty share of Raw Gas.

5. CONDUCT OF OPERATIONS

(a)

Grantor shall be entitled to use a proportionate share of the Royalty Owner's share of Petroleum Substances as may be reasonably necessary for its drilling and production operations with respect to the Royalty Lands, excluding Petroleum Substances used for tertiary recovery operations. Grantor shall not be liable to Royalty Owner for Petroleum Substances which are unavoidably lost. Petroleum Substances so used or lost shall be excluded when quantifying the Overriding Royalty.

(b)	The Grantor shall have the right to commingle Petroleum Substances produced from the Royalty Lands with Petroleum Substances produced from other lands, provided reasonable methods are used to determine the proper measurement of production of Petroleum Substances from the Royalty Lands.

(c)	Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be a deemed or implied covenant by the Grantor to develop the Royalty Lands.

(d)	The Grantor shall carry on (or cause to be carried on) all operations on the Royalty Lands diligently and in a good and workmanlike manner consistent with good oilfield practice.

6. MAINTENANCE OF LEASES

Grantor shall comply with all the covenants and conditions contained in the Leases insofar as they relate to the Royalty Lands and shall do all things necessary to maintain the Leases in full force and effect during the term of this Agreement including, without limitation, timely payment of all rentals, all renewal and extension fees, all taxes, all payments in lieu of actual production and royalties due or becoming due in respect of the Royalty Lands and the Leases.

7. POOLING

The Grantor shall have the authority to pool the Petroleum Substances in a zone underlying all or a portion of the Royalty Lands to the extent required to form a Spacing Unit in such zone, but only if such pooling allocates to that portion of the Royalty Lands included in the Spacing Unit that proportion of the total production of Petroleum Substances from the Spacing Unit which the surface area of that portion of the Royalty Lands placed in the Spacing Unit bears to the total surface area of the Spacing Unit. The Grantor shall thereafter give written notice to the Royalty Owner describing the extent to which the Royalty Lands are being pooled and describing the Spacing Unit with respect to which they are so pooled.

8. UNITIZATION

The Grantor shall not include the Royalty Lands or any part or parts thereof in a Unit Agreement or a Unit Operating Agreement for the unitized development and/or operation thereof with other lands without the consent of the Royalty Owner, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Upon any such unitization, the Overriding Royalty shall be quantified on the basis of the production allocated to each Spacing Unit on the Royalty Lands under the plan of unitization and not upon the basis of actual production from the Royalty Lands. Further, each Spacing Unit for which production is allocated shall be deemed to have on Well thereon, regardless of the actual number of Xxxxx.

9. BOOKS AND RECORDS

(a)	The Grantor shall keep true and current books, records and accounts showing the quantity of Petroleum Substances produced from or allocated to the Royalty Lands and the sales and disposition made thereof from time to time. The books, records, vouchers and accounts maintained by the Grantor shall be open to inspection at all reasonable times during business hours by any officer, agent or employee appointed or authorized by the Royalty Owner, in writing, to examine the same. All information obtained by the Royalty Owner pursuant to this clause shall be treated as confidential and shall not be disclosed to third persons without the prior written consent of the Grantor.

(b)	By the last day of each month, beginning with the first month following the month in which production of Petroleum Substances from the Royalty Lands is obtained after the date hereof, Grantor shall submit to Royalty Owner a statement showing the quantity and kind of Petroleum Substances produced, deemed to be produced or allocated to, saved and sold from or used off the Royalty Lands in the immediately preceding calendar month, together with a quantification of Royalty Owner's share of Petroleum Substances for such immediately preceding calendar month. When Royalty Owner does not take and separately dispose of its share of Petroleum Substances, the said statement shall also include the sale price for such Petroleum Substances and the gross proceeds received therefrom, accompanied by a cheque payable to Royalty Owner for its share of such proceeds. A copy of Grantor's governmental production statement for the month for which the Overriding Royalty is quantified as aforesaid and also, with respect to Crown Leases, a copy of the government royalty statement with respect to the Leases, shall accompany each royalty statement to Royalty Owner. Any information contained in such governmental production statement or royalty statement need not be repeated in the statement to Royalty Owner.

(c)	Royalty Owner, upon notice to Grantor, shall have the right to audit Grantor's accounts and records for any given calendar year, insofar as they relate to any matter or item relating to this Agreement bearing on the Overriding Royalty, within the twenty-four (24) month period following the end of that calendar year. any payment made or statement rendered by Grantor hereunder which is not disputed by Royalty Owner on or before the last day of the twenty-sixth (26th) month following the end of the calendar year shall be deemed to be correct.

10. ASSIGNMENT BY GRANTOR

The Grantor may assign any legal or equitable interest in this Agreement, the Royalty Lands, the Leases or any portion or portions thereof and in the event of such assignment, the Grantor shall continue to be bound by all of the conditions and provisions of this Agreement as if there had been no assignment until such 16

time as the Royalty Owner shall have been served with a written undertaking by the assignee (or assignees) directly enforceable by the Royalty Owner, to perform and be bound thereafter by all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement to the same extent and degree with respect to the interest which has been assigned to it, as it would have been if such assignee (or assignees) had been a party to this Agreement instead of the Grantor.

11. ASSIGNMENT BY ROYALTY OWNER

The Royalty Owner may at any time assign its interest in the Overriding Royalty upon notice thereof to the Grantor, provided that if at any time the Overriding Royalty should become owned by more than one party, the Grantor shall have the right to require the assignees of the Overriding Royalty to appoint in writing an agent to represent all of the assignees of the Overriding Royalty and to receive all statements and payments (if any) of the Overriding Royalty. If the assignees of the Overriding Royalty fail to appoint an agent hereunder within thirty (30) days of any request to do so by Grantor, Grantor may withhold the Overriding Royalty until such time as an agent is appointed.

12. ROYALTY OWNER'S LIEN

(a)	The Royalty Owner shall be entitled to and shall have a first and paramount lien upon the Grantor's share of all Petroleum Substances from time to time produced from the Royalty Lands to secure the payment of the Overriding Royalty. Such lien shall not operate to release the Grantor from personal liability for monies due to the Royalty Owner. Such lien shall not attach to the Grantor's share of Petroleum Substances sold or otherwise disposed of from the Royalty Lands, but immediately upon default occurring in payment by the Grantor of monies payable to the Royalty Owner such lien shall operate as an assignment to the Royalty Owner of the consideration thereafter payable to the Royalty Owner for the Petroleum Substances sold, up to the amount owed to the Royalty Owner and not so paid by the Grantor.

(b)	Service of a copy of this agreement upon any purchaser of Petroleum Substances together with written notice from the Royalty Owner shall constitute written authorization on the part of the Grantor for such purchaser to pay the Royalty Owner the proceeds from any sale or sales of the Grantor's share of Petroleum Substances up to the amount owed to the Royalty Owner by the Grantor, and such purchaser is authorized to rely solely upon the statement of the Royalty Owner as to the amount owed to the Royalty Owner by the Grantor.

2. GRANT OF OVERRIDING ROYALTY

3. QUANTIFICATION OF OVERRIDING ROYALTY

(a)	with respect to Crude Oil and Condensate, a proportionate share of the actual costs of transportation from the Royalty Determination Point to market connection;

(b)	with respect to Petroleum Substances other than Crude Oil and Condensate, a proportionate share of the cost of transportation, gathering and processing, providing that such costs are no greater than those allowed from time to time by the Crown in the right of the Province of Alberta in calculating its royalty.

(a)	The Royalty Owner shall have the right to take in kind the Royalty Owner's share of Petroleum Substances. Such right may be exercised separately with respect to Condensate, Crude Oil, Raw Gas, and any other individual Petroleum Substance. In the case of Crude Oil and Condensate, such right when exercised shall be done on a minimum of thirty (30) days notice to the Grantor. In the case of all other Petroleum Substances such right when exercised shall be done on a minimum of six (6) months notice to the Grantor. If the Royalty Owner, however, signifies in writing its consent to the sale of any of the Royalty Owner's share of Petroleum Substances under a contract made by the Grantor providing for a minimum term in excess of the said respective notice periods, the Royalty Owner's right to take in kind any Petroleum Substances subject to such contract shall be suspended during the term of such contract. The Royalty Owner may cease to take in kind any Petroleum Substances upon giving the Grantor the same minimum notice as provided above for the Royalty Owner to take such Petroleum Substances in kind as aforesaid. The right to take in kind or to cease to take in kind may be exercised from time to time subject only to the foregoing provisions of this Subclause.

(b)	When the Royalty Owner is taking in kind the Royalty Owner's share of any Petroleum Substances, the Grantor shall at no cost to the Royalty

Owner remove basic sediment and water therefrom in accordance with good oilfield practice, and:

	(i)	in respect to Crude Oil and Condensate: the Grantor shall deliver the Royalty Owner's share to the Royalty Owner, or its nominee, at the tank outlets, or comparable delivery point, in accordance with usual and customary pipeline and shipping practice, free and clear of all charges whatsoever except to the extent that the Royalty Determination Point is an earlier point in which case the costs of moving product from the Royalty Determination Point to the delivery point will be deductible by the Grantor from the Overriding Royalty. The Royalty Owner shall have the right to use free of charge a share of the Grantor's lease tankage and storage facilities to store a maximum of ten (10) days accumulation of the Royalty Owner's share of Crude Oil and Condensate; and

	(ii)	in respect to Raw Gas: the Grantor shall deliver the Royalty Owner's share to the Royalty Owner, or its nominee, at the Royalty Determination Point of the relevant well, provided that to the extent the Royalty Owner so requests on reasonable notice to the Grantor and the Grantor can reasonably comply with such request, the Grantor shall gather, compress, transport, treat and process such share of Raw Gas along with the Grantor's share of Raw Gas from the applicable well or xxxxx and deliver to the Royalty Owner at their relevant plant outlet, the Royalty Owner's Overriding Royalty share of marketable gas and other Petroleum Substances obtained from such share of Raw Gas, in which event, the Royalty Owner shall be responsible for:

	A.	its proportionate share of the costs of gathering, compressing, transporting, treating and processing such Raw Gas where the Grantor or an Affiliate thereof does not own such facilities; or

5. CONDUCT OF OPERATIONS

9. BOOKS AND RECORDS

(a)	The Grantor shall keep true and current books, records and accounts showing the quantity of Petroleum Substances produced from or allocated to the Royalty Lands and the sales and disposition made thereof from time to time. The books, records, vouchers and accounts maintained by the Grantor shall be open to inspection at all reasonable times during business hours by any officer, agent or employee appointed or authorized by the Royalty Owner, in writing, to examine the same. All information obtained by the Royalty Owner pursuant to this clause shall be treated as confidential and shall not be disclosed to third persons without the prior written consent of the Grantor.

(b)	By the last day of each month, beginning with the first month following the month in which production of Petroleum Substances from the Royalty Lands is obtained after the date hereof, Grantor shall submit to Royalty Owner a statement showing the quantity and kind of Petroleum Substances produced, deemed to be produced or allocated to, saved and sold from or used off the Royalty Lands in the immediately preceding calendar month, together with a quantification of Royalty Owner's share of Petroleum Substances for such immediately preceding calendar month. When Royalty Owner does not take and separately dispose of its share of Petroleum Substances, the said statement shall also include the sale price for such Petroleum Substances and the gross proceeds received therefrom, accompanied by a cheque payable to Royalty Owner for its share of such proceeds. A copy of Grantor's governmental production statement for the month for which the Overriding Royalty is quantified as aforesaid and also, with respect to Crown Leases, a copy of the government royalty statement with respect to the Leases, shall accompany each royalty statement to Royalty Owner. Any information contained in such governmental production statement or royalty statement need not be repeated in the statement to Royalty Owner.

(c)	Royalty Owner, upon notice to Grantor, shall have the right to audit Grantor's accounts and records for any given calendar year, insofar as they relate to any matter or item relating to this Agreement bearing on the Overriding Royalty, within the twenty-four (24) month period following the end of that calendar year. any payment made or statement rendered by Grantor hereunder which is not disputed by Royalty Owner on or before the last day of the twenty-sixth (26th) month following the end of the calendar year shall be deemed to be correct.

10. ASSIGNMENT BY GRANTOR

the assignee (or assignees) directly enforceable by the Royalty Owner, to perform and be bound thereafter by all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement to the same extent and degree with respect to the interest which has been assigned to it, as it would have been if such assignee (or assignees) had been a party to this Agreement instead of the Grantor.

11. ASSIGNMENT BY ROYALTY OWNER

12. ROYALTY OWNER'S LIEN

(a)	The Royalty Owner shall be entitled to and shall have a first and paramount lien upon the Grantor's share of all Petroleum Substances from time to time produced from the Royalty Lands to secure the payment of the Overriding Royalty. Such lien shall not operate to release the Grantor from personal liability for monies due to the Royalty Owner. Such lien shall not attach to the Grantor's share of Petroleum Substances sold or otherwise disposed of from the Royalty Lands, but immediately upon default occurring in payment by the Grantor of monies payable to the Royalty Owner such lien shall operate as an assignment to the Royalty Owner of the consideration thereafter payable to the Royalty Owner for the Petroleum Substances sold, up to the amount owed to the Royalty Owner and not so paid by the Grantor.

(b)	Service of a copy of this agreement upon any purchaser of Petroleum Substances together with written notice from the Royalty Owner shall constitute written authorization on the part of the Grantor for such purchaser to pay the Royalty Owner the proceeds from any sale or sales of the Grantor's share of Petroleum Substances up to the amount owed to the Royalty Owner by the Grantor, and such purchaser is authorized to rely solely upon the statement of the Royalty Owner as to the amount owed to the Royalty Owner by the Grantor.
