B.

TERMS OF AGREEMENT:
NOW, THEREFORE, FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the sufficiency of which is acknowledged by the parties, the parties hereto agree as follows:
ARTICLE I
Commitment Use of Proceeds and Collateral
Section 1.1. Commitment/Advances. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and beginning on the Effective Date, until the Maturity of the Loan, by whatever means Maturity comes about, Lender will make a Loan to Borrower by making advances of good funds by wire transfer to Borrower’s designated bank or such designated third party recipient(s) as the parties may mutually agree upon (the “Advances”), from time to time as limited by Section 1.5 hereinbelow, in such amounts as the Borrower may request up to the funding limits described in this Agreement, up to the maximum aggregate principal amount outstanding at any time during the term of the loan of EIGHT MILLION AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($8,000,000.00) (the “Credit Facility” or “Loan”). First funding under the Loan from Lender to Borrower shall be denoted the “Initial Advance”.
Section 1.2 Use of Proceeds. Proceeds of the Advances shall be used only to finance:
(a) Past, present, or future acquisitions of oil and gas leases (collectively, the “Leases”), including all title and land work, in the name of Borrower and/or Philco; all fees paid to governmental entities (i.e. filing fees and/or tax stamps), bonus consideration, surface damage payments, prospect acquisition costs and other like and similar expenses which accrue in the usual and customary practice of the oil and gas industry in Utah, associated title, geological, and engineering review, fees and payments to maintain such Leases such as delay rentals;
(b) Oil and gas development, drilling, completion, reworking, production, transportation, marketing and plugging activities under the Leases as well as customary costs and expenses related to said activities, and
(c) All Lender charges and fees, including fees and expenses of legal counsel to Lender.
During the term of this Agreement, Borrower shall, subject to the Draw Limitations set forth hereinbelow in Section 1.5, the Collateral Coverage Requirements set forth hereinbelow in Section 1.6 and availability of Lender funds, use Lender funds pursuant to this Credit Facility for the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) through (c) above, to fund such items and for no other purposes. Should (i) the provisions of Sections 1.5 and/or 1.6 hereinbelow preclude the use of Lender funds for any such item(s), (ii) Lender fails to fund Borrower’s request due to inability of Lender, or (iii) Lender otherwise fails to respond to the Borrower’s request for funds within the time period prescribed in Section 1.5 hereinbelow, then Borrower may resort to other available sources of capital. It is the intention of Borrower and Lender that Lender has the first right of refusal to finance any and all ongoing and future oil and gas acquisitions and operations of the Borrower and/or Philco, as the case may be.
Section 1.3 Promissory Note. The Advances shall be evidenced by a Promissory Note (the “Note”) of the Borrower in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit “A”, dated as of the Effective Date, payable to the order of Lender, and providing for interest on the outstanding principal balance as advanced, from time to time, at the rate of thirteen percent (13%) per annum (the “Note Rate”). Lender is irrevocably authorized by Borrower to make appropriate notations on the Note reflecting the amount and date of each Advance, and such notations shall be deemed conclusive, absent manifest error.
| - 2 - |
Section 1.4 Collateral for Credit Facility. The collateral for the Credit Facility evidenced by this Agreement shall be (a), first and prior lien(s) on the oil and gas leases, xxxxx, downhole and surface equipment and storage equipment as well as personal property on certain Leases (“Collateral Leases”) as to which Lender’s funds have been utilized for acquisition and/or drilling costs referenced in Sections 1.2(a) and (b) above, including all existing and future lease interests in Uintah County, Utah for which Lender funds have been or will be utilized for acquisition and/or drilling costs or other activities described in Sections 1.2(a) and (b) above which lien(s) shall be evidenced by the form(s) of Master Deed(s) of Trust, Assignment of Production, Security Agreement, and Financing Statement (“Deed(s) of Trust”) attached hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit “B”, and (b) first and prior lien(s) on all of Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to the Reserve Account as described in Section 1.7 hereinbelow, such lien(s) shall be evidenced by the form of Security Agreement/Pledge Agreement (with attached DEPOSIT ACCOUNT CONTROLL AGREEMENT) attached hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit “C” (the “Security Agreement/Pledge”). Borrower and Philco, respectively, further covenant and agree to execute and deliver first and prior lien(s) covering any additional oil and gas lease(s) now existing or hereafter acquired and/or drilled using Lender funds in the name of Borrower, Philco, and/or any other subsidiary now existing or hereafter created to acquire, hold or develop oil and gas properties which are acquired and/or developed using Leader funds. In the event that the title review and/or examination for newly acquired oil and gas lease(s) or interests therein reflects any mortgage, deeds of trust, tax lien or other apparent encumbrance (“encumbrance”) which, if valid and existing, could impair the first and prior status of Lender’s lien(s) and security interest(s) therein, then Borrower shall cause such encumbrance, whether valid or otherwise, to be released of record or shall lawfully bond around in accordance with applicable state or local law requirements the apparent encumbrance within sixty (60) days of the request date for any Lender Advance which will be used to either acquire the encumbered oil and gas lease(s) or reimburse Borrower, Philco, or its other subsidiaries for the costs of its acquisition. In the event Borrower fails to cure such title encumbrance within the time period provided above, Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, cure such title encumbrance and to charge the cost and expense incurred in such curative action to Borrower as an increase in the principal balance under the Note. Such curative expenses so advanced shall thereafter bear interest at the rate of eighteen (18%) per annum from the date incurred until paid (“Default Rate”).
In addition to the above collateral documents, the said Loan and Note shall be personally guaranteed in payment by Xxxx Xxxxx (“Guarantor”). The form of such Guaranty (“Guaranty”) is attached hereto labeled Exhibit “E”. Said Guaranty shall be a continuous and ongoing obligation of the Guarantor, provided however, in the event that the Borrower elects to make a public offering of its securities in the manner described in Section 2.3 hereinbelow, and the value of the collateral securing the Loan and the Note is not less than 200% (as determined by a Reserve Report prepared in accordance with the requirements of Section 1.6 hereinbelow satisfactory to Lender) of the then current principal balance of the Note (with such collateral valuation and Note principal balance to be determined as of the date the securities of the Borrower first trade on a publicly recognized exchange), then in such event, and only in such event, shall the Guaranty be deemed discharged and the said Guaranty shall be released to the Guarantor and thereafter the said Guarantor shall have no further individual or personal liability upon the indebtedness under the Note.
For the purposes of this Agreement, the Note, the Deed(s) of Trust, the Security Agreement/Pledge Agreement(s), the Guaranty, the Debenture(s) and all other documents executed in conjunction with the Loan shall be referred to as the “Loan Documents” from time to time hereinafter. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms set forth in any of the Loan Documents, the terms set forth in this Agreement shall be controlling, except to the extent, and only to the extent, that the terms set forth in the specific Loan Document are required to be controlling by applicable state law.

Section 1.5. Draw Limitations. The principal of the Loan may be drawn by Borrower over a twelve (12) month period which shall begin on the date of the Initial Advance under this Agreement (“Initial Advance Date”) in a lump sum or partial sums in Borrower’s discretion, subject to the Collateral Coverage Requirements described in Section 1.6 below. Each draw by Borrower other than the Initial Advance shall be preceded by a 10-day written request (accompanied by a statement of the proposed use of proceeds) to Lender and shall be funded by Lender on the eleventh (11th) day following the request. In the event that the eleventh (11th) day falls on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday, then the funding date shall be the next business day of Lender. Unless otherwise agreed by Lender, draw requests shall be funded no more frequently than monthly.
Borrower acknowledges, understands and agrees that Lender is a private, non-public, entity. As such, Lender obtains its funds from the private capital markets and/or individuals who desire to participate in Lenders investment banking activities, thus Lender does not have a guaranteed source of money in which to fund this transaction with Borrower. Borrower acknowledges that the volatility of the capital markets, the nature of Borrower’s business activities and/or other events which may come into existence may impact Lender’s ability to raise and procure sufficient capital in order to fund all or substantially all of the Loan described in this Agreement.
Section 1.6. Collateral Coverage Requirements. Unless otherwise agreed by Lender, any available funds under the Credit Facility, including the Initial Advance, shall only be available for draw by Borrower if the total principal balance of the Note outstanding after the requested Advance will not exceed seventy percent (70%) of the loan to value (“LTV”) ratio of Borrower’s Proved Producing Reserves, (as defined herein), from all sources, at a present value discount of ten percent (10%) per annum (“PV10”), as such Proved Producing Reserves are reflected in the most recent reserve report (“Reserve Report”) prepared by an independent petroleum engineer engaged by Borrower and otherwise qualified to calculate Proved Producing Reserves acceptable under the U. S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) standards. For purposes hereof, the term Proved Producing Reserves shall mean the estimated quantities of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids which, based upon engineering and geologic data, are expected to be recovered under existing economic and operating conditions from existing xxxxx in reservoirs (including behind the pipe reservoirs) that have produced at any time during the twelve (12) months before the reporting date. To the extent that a Reserve: Report cannot be prepared based upon the criteria set forth hereinabove due to a lack of sufficient time for such production to have occurred, then Borrower may present a reserve appraisal study based upon initial production values as currently existing on the subject Leases together with data on comparable production of other xxxxx in the area wherein the Borrower’s producing xxxxx are located and which produce from the same or similar zones, as a basis of information as to the probable production values from the subject well or xxxxx of the Borrower. In that event Borrower agrees that a full and complete Reserve Report will be subsequently prepared for all production from the well or xxxxx of the Borrower reflecting actual production from the date of the Initial Advance through December 31, 2007 with such Reserve Report to be in form consistent with the Reserve Report requirements set forth above and same shall be due on or before February 15, 2008. Borrower is to provide evidence to Lender that such production actually exists by delivering copies to Lender of all third party purchaser run statements, and /or checks (with stub and/or skirt details), and other indices of payment received by Borrower reflecting the sale of oil and/or gas from the subject Leases. Such documentation shall be delivered to Borrower by the fifteenth (15TH) day after receipt of such documentation and/or statements by Borrower. If for any reason the Collateral Coverage Requirements fall below the minimum threshold amount described in this Section 1.6 and remain below such minimum threshold amount for thirty (30) consecutive days, then in such event Borrower and its subsidiaries shall cause additional collateral acceptable to Lender to be secured, pledged and encumbered by Lender’s first and prior lien(s) and security interest(s), all at Borrower’s expense, or, at Lender’s option, Lender may demand that Borrower pay down the principal balance of the said Note in an amount sufficient to then cause the then remaining principal balance of the Note after such pay down to be in compliance with the collateral coverage requirements set forth hereinabove. If such principal pay down demand is made by Lender, Borrower shall have ten (10) business days from date of such written demand in order to cause such payment to be made upon the Note.
| - 4 - |
Section 1.7. Segregated Reserve Accounts. Borrower shall establish, independent of any other bank accounts currently held by Borrower, in a National Bank with offices in Salt Lake City, Utah, subject to Lender’s approval, a fully segregated Reserve Account (“Reserve Account”) wherein Borrower will cause to be deposited as such funds are received sixty percent (60%) of all revenues from oil and/or gas sales received by Borrower and/or Philco from any production xxxxx on the Collateral Leases described upon Exhibit “B” hereto (“Production Xxxxx”) as of the effective date of this Agreement, together with all future and other revenue derived and received from such Production Xxxxx during the terms of this Agreement and until the Note is paid in full, for the purpose of utilization of such deposited funds for debt service, both as to interest and principle, required under this Agreement and/or the Note, provided however, so long as this Agreement and/or the Note are not in default, the said Reserve Account shall be capped in an amount equal to six (6) months interest due upon the principal balance of the Note, as same may change from time to time, at the rate specified therein (being the sum of $520,000.00 or such lesser amount equal to six (6) months interest upon such principal balance) and shall be maintained at said minimum level during the term of the Loan such that for each dollar withdrawn from said Reserve Account on a monthly basis to pay interest on the said Loan, a like sum shall be deposited to the said Reserve Account from the next available funds received by Borrower as revenue from production from the said Production Xxxxx so as to maintain a constant balance in the said Reserve Account of the sum of not less than $520,000.00 or such lesser amount equal to six (6) months interest on the principal balance, as same may change from time to time Said Reserve Account shall be debited monthly by Borrower in an amount equal to the then current interest payment due upon the Note, and such funds shall then be paid to Lender promptly in accordance with the terms of the Note. Except for such monthly interest payment debits no other funds shall be debited, withdrawn or paid from the said Reserve Account by Borrower without Lender’s prior written consent. In the event of Borrower’s default under the terms of this Agreement and/or the Note, the Reserve Account capped amount shall no longer be controlling, and the full reserve deposit as set forth hereinabove shall be made by Borrower to the Reserve Account during the remaining term of the Loan until such time as the Note has been paid in full. To the extent said funds in said Reserve Account exceeds the amount necessary to maintain the interest payments required under the terms of this Agreement and/or the Note, any such excess proceeds shall accrue and be applied to principle repayment under the Note. As if and when Borrower completes an IPO as hereinbelow defined wherein the common stock of Borrower is offered to the public in accordance with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 (“Act”) and with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”) (or the applicable equivalent laws of the jurisdiction wherein such public offering of the securities of Borrower shall occur) and in compliance with the rules and regulations of the SEC (or the applicable regulatory body and/or governmental agency of the jurisdiction wherein such offering shall occur), then and only then, shall such Reserve Account requirement be reduced from sixty percent (60%) to fifty-five percent (55%) of all revenues derived from such Production Xxxxx.
| - 5 - |
Borrower shall pledge the said Reserve Account to Lender as security for the payment of the Loan and Note as per the requirements of Section 1.4 hereinabove.
Borrower shall provide proof of such Reserve Account status monthly to Lender by providing a copy to Lender of a copy of the bank statement(s) received on such Reserve Account together with copies of all oil and/or gas revenue checks from first purchasers of the oil and/or gas produced from such Production Xxxxx. Such documentation shall be delivered by Borrower not later than the tenth (10th) day of the month following the date when such documentation and/or statements are received by Borrower and/or Philco, as the case may be.
Section 1.8 Term of Credit Facility. The Note and any and all obligations of Borrower under this Agreement shall mature on the two (2) year anniversary date of the Initial Advance (“Maturity”).

All interest payments shall be calculated on the average daily principal balance outstanding under the Note.

Section 2.3 CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURE(S) and/or PERPETUAL WARRANT.
A. As additional consideration from Borrower to Lender to make the Loan, Borrower shall issue to Lender simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement a Convertible Debenture (“1st Debenture”) in the amount of $400,000.00 (being equal to five percent (5%) of the Loan) subject to proportionate reduction in the event Borrower fails to fund the entire Loan, and such failure to fund is not based upon any act of Borrower nor based upon Borrower’s inability to meet the Collateral Coverage Requirements set forth in Section 1.6 above (“Proportionate Funding Shortfall”). Said 1st Debenture shall be payable at the Maturity of the Loan as set forth in Section 1.8 above, provided however at the sole discretion and election of Lender, said 1st Debenture may be redeemed for a cash payment from Borrower to Lender at any time after the expiration of twelve (12) months from the date of the Initial Advance made hereunder, or alternatively at the sole discretion and election of the Lender, if, prior to Maturity of the Loan, Borrower (or any related affiliate or subsidiary thereof) shall have determined to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission SEC (or a similar or equivalent regulatory body and/or governmental agency in the jurisdiction wherein such offering shall occur on a recognized exchange) a registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) for an underwritten public offering (“IPO”) of the common stock of Borrower, then Borrower shall give Lender at least twenty (20) days prior written notice of Borrower’s intention to file the Registration Statement, and, Lender shall have the right, within ten (10) days after receipt of such notice (“Offering Conversion Period”) to exercise its right to convert the 1st Debenture, in whole or in part, by delivering written notice thereof (the “Offering Exercise Notice”) to Borrower prior to the expiration of the ten (10) day period. If an Offering Exercise Notice is given by Lender, Lender shall become the record and beneficial owner of a specified number of shares of fully registered and freely tradable common stock of the Borrower as determined hereiribelow (“Shares”) concurrently with the issuance by the SEC (or a similar or equivalent regulatory body and/or governmental agency in the jurisdiction wherein such offering shall occur) of an order (the “Effectiveness Order”) declaring the Registration Statement effective pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (or such other applicable securities laws in the jurisdiction where such offering shall occur), and upon issuance of the Effectiveness Order, to the extent that the 1st Debenture shall have been converted to such Shares the principal amount thereof shall be reduced and the 1st Debenture shall be deemed paid, in full or to the extent of such conversion, as the case may be, and if paid in full, the 1st Debenture shall be surrendered by Lender to Borrower (or to Borrower’s Registrar if so directed) for cancellation. The number of Shares to which the conversion right is applicable as to the 1st Debenture shall be determined by a set price per share equal to fifty percent (50%) of the initial IPO price on a per share basis, as determined on the first day of trading of Borrower’s common stock on a recognized exchange. Such 1st Debenture shall be assignable by Lender to one or more parties without Borrower’s consent. The form of such 1st Debenture which will be issued is attached hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit “D-1”.
| - 7 - |
B. In addition, and not in lieu of the above, if the Loan has not been paid in full on or before the first (1st) anniversary date of the Initial Advance (“1st Anniversary”), Borrower shall issue to Lender on the 1st Anniversary a second Convertible Debenture (“2nd Debenture”) in the amount of $472,000.00 subject to proportionate reduction in the event of a Proportionate Funding Shortfall (of which $400,000.00 shall be subject to a per diem proration, commencing on the 1st Anniversary Date and expiring on the Maturity of the Loan, prorated to the actual date of redemption and payment to Lender or, in the event of conversion, as hereinafter provided, to the actual date of the first day of trading of the common stock of Borrower pursuant to an IPO as hereinafter provided, on a recognized exchange). Said 2nd Debenture shall be payable at the Maturity of the Loan as set forth in Section 1.8 above, provided however, at the sole discretion and election of Lender, said 2nd Debenture may be redeemed for a cash payment from Borrower to Lender at any time prior to Maturity, in the event that Borrower commences an IPO before the Maturity of the Loan in the manner as set forth in subsection A. above or, alternatively at the sole discretion and election of the Lender, if prior to Maturity of the Loan, Borrower (or any related affiliate or subsidiary thereof) shall have determined to file with the SEC (or a similar or equivalent regulatory body and/or governmental agency in the jurisdiction wherein such offering shall occur on a recognized exchange) a Registration Statement for an IPO of the common stock of Borrower then Borrower shall give Lender at least twenty (20) days prior written notice of Borrower’s intention to file the Registration Statement, and, Lender shall have the right, within the Offering Conversion Period to exercise its right to convert the 2nd Debenture, in whole or in part, by delivering its Offering Exercise Notice to Borrower prior to the expiration of the Offering Conversion Period. If an Offering Exercise Notice is given by Lender, Lender shall become the record beneficial owner of a specified number of shares of fully registered and freely tradable common stock of the Borrower as determined hereinbelow (“2nd Debenture Shares”) concurrently with issuance by the SEC (or a similar or equivalent regulatory body and/or governmental agency in the jurisdiction wherein such offering shall occur) of an Effectiveness Order declaring the Registration Statement effective pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (or such other applicable securities laws in the jurisdiction where such offering shall occur), and upon issuance of the Effectiveness Order, to the extent that the 2nd Debenture shall have been converted to such 2nd Debenture Shares the principal amount thereof shall be reduced and the 2nd Debenture shall be deemed paid, in full or to the extent of such conversion, as the case may be, and if paid in full, the 2nd Debenture shall be surrendered by Lender to Borrower (or to Borrower’s Registrar if so directed) for cancellation. The number of 2nd Debenture Shares which the conversion right is applicable as to the 2nd Debenture shall be determined by a set price per share equal to fifty percent (50%) of the initial IPO price on a per share basis, as determined on the first day of trading of Borrower’s common stock on a recognized exchange. Such 2nd Debenture shall be assignable by Lender to one or more parties without Borrower’s consent The form of such 2nd Debenture which will be issued is attached hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit “D-2”.
C. The 1st Debenture and 2nd Debenture shall generally be referred to as the (“Debenture(s)”) and shall be secured in payment and performance of Borrower’s obligations by the Deed(s) of Trust attached as Exhibit “B” hereto and referenced in Section 1.4 above.
D. In the event that Borrower elects at any time to seek a public registration of Borrower’s common stock and elects to file for registration for an IPO with the SEC (or such other similar or equivalent regulatory body and/or governmental agency in the jurisdiction wherein Borrower elects to offer its securities to the public over a recognized exchange) then in such event, within five (5) business days of the initial filing with SEC or such other regulatory entity, Borrower shall give written notice to Lender of Borrower’s election to seek a public offering of its securities and shall provide to Lender copies of all information and/or registration materials utilized by Borrower in seeking approval for such IPO and shall provide to Lender the names, addresses, telephone numbers, facsimile numbers and e-mail addresses of all persons involved in such public offering process engaged by Borrower, including but not limited to underwriters, securities dealers, accountants and/or accounting firms, attorneys and/or law firms, and such other persons or entities engaged by Borrower to assist Borrower in the completion of such IPO. Lender shall be entitled to communicate with all such persons to determine the status of such IPO and/or its registration process, and such persons and/or entities shall be instructed to provide to Lender such information so requested by Lender provided that the delivery and/or transmittal of such information from such persons and/or entities does not contravene applicable state or federal law, or the law of the jurisdiction where such public offering of the common stock of Borrower shall occur over a recognized exchange.
| - 8 - |
E. Further, it is agreed by the Borrower that if no IPO has been completed as of the Maturity of the Loan, as hereinabove defined, and the Debenture(s) are redeemed for cash payments, respectively, then simultantiously with such redemption and payment of said Debentures, Borrower shall issue its perpetual warrant (“Warrant”) to Lender granting to Lender the right to acquire fully registered and freely tradable common stock of Borrower (for the number of shares as hereinafter determined), in the event of a future public offering of the securities of Borrower in an IPO, at a per share price equal to fifty percent (50%) of the initial offering price for such securities, fixed as of the first date of trading of the securities of Borrower on a recognized exchange. The number of shares to which Lender shall be entitled and which are applicable to and exercisable under the said warrant shall be determined by dividing the sum of $1,000,000.00 by one half (1/2) of the initial offering price on a per share basis for such common stock of Borrower fixed as of the first date of trading of such common stock on a recognized exchange. Said warrant shall be exercisable by Lender not later than thirty (30) days after the first date of trading of Borrower’s securities on a recognized exchange. If after Maturity, Borrower (or any related affiliate or subsidiary thereof) shall have determined to file with the SEC (or a similar or equivalent regulatory body and/or governmental agency in the jurisdiction wherein such offering shall occur on a recognized exchange) a Registration Statement for an IPO of the common stock of Borrower then Borrower shall g;ive Lender at lease twenty (20) days prior written notice of Borrower’s intention to file the Registration Statement. Said Warrant shall be assignable by Lender to one or more parties without Borrower’s consent. The form of such perpetual warrant is attached hereto labeled Exhibit “F" and incorporated herein by reference for all purposes.
Section 2.4 Application of Payments; Prepayments. Borrower may prepay the Loan, provided however, any such prepayment of any principle amount advanced under this Agreement and/or the Note within the twelve (12) months from the date of such principle advance shall bear a prepayment penalty equal to the difference between the actual interest earned to date of prepayment, pursuant to the terms of the Note, and the interest which would have been earned on such prepayment sum from date of prepayment to the 1st anniversary date of such respective principal advance at the rate specified in the Note, on such principal sums so prepaid. Any prepayment prior to Maturity but after the first anniversary date from the date when such principle amount was advanced may be made without penalty. For the purposes of this Agreement and the Note, any prepayment of principle by Borrower shall be applied to the oldest principle advance made under this Agreement and/or the Note. Any prepayments shall be applied first to those fees and expenses incurred by Lender in enforcement of the Note, the Deed(s) of Trust, the Security Agreement/Pledge Agreement(s), the Debenture or any other document evidencing or securing the obligations of Borrower and/or its subsidiaries under this Agreement or under such documents, then to accrued interest and then to the principal balance outstanding, provided however, in the event, if at any time Lender receives from Borrower or otherwise an amount applicable to the Loan which is less than all amounts due and payable at such time, Lender may apply that payment to amounts then due and payable in any manner and in order determined by Lender, at Lender’s discretion. Borrower agrees that neither Lender’s acceptance of the payment from Borrower in the amount that is less than all amounts then due and payable nor Lender’s application of such payment of such payments shall constitute either a waiver of the unpaid amounts or an accord and satisfaction.

“The collateral for the Credit Facility evidenced by this Agreement shall be (a), first and prior lien(s) on the oil and gas leases, xxxxx, downhole and surface equipment and storage equipment as well as personal property on certain Leases (“Collateral Leases”) as to which Lender’s funds have been utilized for acquisition and/or drilling costs referenced in Sections 1.2(a), (b) and (d) above, including all existing and future lease interests in Uintah County, Utah and in Muskingum, Ashtabula, Portage and Xxxxx Counties in the State of Ohio for which Lender funds have been or will be utilized for acquisition and/or drilling costs or other activities described in Sections 1.2(a), (b) and (d) above which lien(s) shall be evidenced by the form(s) of Master Deed(s) of Trust, Assignment of Production, Security Agreement, and Financing Statement (“Deed(s) of Trust”) attached hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit “B”, and (b) first and prior lien(s) on all of Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to the Reserve Account as described in Section 1.7 hereinbelow, such lien(s) shall be evidenced by the form of Security Agreement/Pledge Agreement (with attached DEPOSIT ACCOUNT CONTROL AGREEMENT) attached hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit “C” (the “Security Agreement/Pledge”). Borrower and Philco, respectively, further covenant and agree to execute and deliver first and prior lien(s) covering any additional oil and gas lease(s) now existing or hereafter acquired and/or drilled using Lender funds in the name of Borrower, Philco, and/or any other subsidiary now existing or hereafter created to acquire, hold or develop oil and gas properties which are acquired and/or developed using Lender funds. In the event that the title review and/or examination for newly acquired oil and gas lease(s) or interests therein reflects any mortgage, deeds of trust, tax lien or other apparent encumbrance (“encumbrance”) which, if valid and existing, could impair the first and prior status of Lender’s lien(s) and security interest(s) therein, then Borrower shall cause such encumbrance, whether valid or otherwise, to be released of record or shall lawfully bond around in accordance with applicable state or local law requirements the apparent encumbrance within sixty (60) days of the request date for any Lender Advance which will be used to either acquire the encumbered oil and gas lease(s) or reimburse Borrower, Philco, or its other subsidiaries for the costs of its acquisition. In the event Borrower fails to cure such title encumbrance within the time period provided above, Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, cure such title encumbrance and to charge the cost and expense incurred in such curative action to Borrower as an increase in the principal balance under the Note. Such curative expenses so advanced shall thereafter bear interest at the rate of eighteen (18%) per annum from the date incurred until paid (“Default Rate”).”
| 2 |
| 6. | Section 1.6 denoted Collateral Coverage Requirements is hereby supplemented by the addition of the following at the end of the existing provision, to wit: |
“The above requirements shall be equally applicable to Borrower’s Proved Producing Reserves in Uintah County, Utah and in Muskingum, Ashtabula, Portage and Xxxxx Counties, Ohio respectively.”
| 7. | Section 1.7 denoted Segregated Reserve Account is supplemented by the addition of the following provision at the end of the first full paragraph of Section 1.7 as follows, to wit: |
“In addition to the Collateral Leases described upon Exhibit “B” hereto, the Leases acquired by Borrower in Muskingum, Ashtabula, Portage and Xxxxx Counties Ohio described upon Exhibit “B-1 “ hereto shall be included in the requirements of this Section 1.7.”
| 8. | Section 3.1. denoted Resolution shall be supplemented by the addition of subparagraph (iv) under subsection A. as follows: |
“(iv) Resolutions of its Board of Directors or Managers, as the case may be, then in full force and effect authorizing the execution, delivery and performance of the Deed(s) of Trust over and upon Borrower’s leasehold interests in Muskingum, Ashtabula, Portage and Xxxxx Counties, Ohio and each other Loan Document to be executed by it.”
| 9. | Section 5.1. denoted Allocation and Budgeting of Loan Proceeds for Drilling is amended to read as follows, to wit: |
“Borrower and/or Philco shall, in good faith, exercising sound commercial judgment, and absent a Proportionate Funding Shortfall event, endeavor to budget and allocate the requested Advances under this Credit Facility in such a manner that sufficient funds shall be available to Borrower in the near term, either from third party venturers, projected cash flow or set asides to drill, test and complete, (as applicable) the Leases and/or any other oil and gas lease(s) (including leases in Muskingum, Ashtabula, Portage and Xxxxx Counties in the State of Ohio) acquired with or reimbursed by the Credit Facility funds within the primary term of such Leases and/or other oil and gas lease(s) and shall have determined that appropriate and sufficient drilling rigs and/or equipment are available in the geographic area where such drilling activity is to occur within such time period.”
All other terms, conditions, covenants and agreements set forth in the Loan Agreement not specifically modified, amended or supplemented hereinabove shall remain in full force and effect.
Executed as of the date set forth hereinabove.

ARTICLE III
ABSOLUTE ASSIGNMENT OF RUNS
3.1 To provide a source of payment of the Indebtedness and as cumulative of any and all rights and remedies herein provided for, effective as of 7:00 am Eastern Standard Time (EST) on the Effective Date hereof, Grantor, and each of them, hereby unconditionally and absolutely bargains, sells, transfers, assigns, sets over and conveys unto Lender, all the Hydrocarbons, together with the proceeds derived from the sale thereof (such proceeds being hereinafter called “proceeds of runs”), and further together with the immediate and continuing right to collect and receive the same. Grantor, and each of them, directs and instructs each purchaser of the Hydrocarbons to immediately pay to Lender upon Lender's request all of the proceeds of runs until such time as such purchaser has been furnished evidence that all Indebtedness has been paid and that the lien evidenced hereby have been released. Grantor, and each of them, hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold the purchaser of Hydrocarbons barmless from any and all liabilities, actions, claims, judgments, costs, charges and attorneys' fees incurred in connection with any payment of proceeds of runs to Lender. Grantor, and each of them, authorizes Lender to receive and collect all sums of money derived from the proceeds of runs, and no purchaser of the Hydrocarbons shall have the responsibility for the application of any funds paid to Lender.
3.2 Independent of the foregoing provisions and authorities herein granted, Grantor, and each of them, agrees to execute and deliver any and all transfer orders, division orders and other instruments that may be requested by Lender or that may be required by the purchaser of the Hydrocarbons for the purpose of effectuating payment for the proceeds of runs to Lender.
Without limitation upon any of the foregoing, Grantor, and each of them, hereby constitute and appoint Lender as Grantor's special attorney-in-fact (with full power of substitution, either generally or for such periods or purposes as Lender may from time to time prescribe) in the name, place and stead of Grantor, and each of them, to do any and every act and exercise any and every power that Grantor, or either of them, might or could do or exercise personally with respect to all Hydrocarbons and Hydrocarbon proceeds of runs (the same having been assigned by Grantor, and by each of them, to Lender pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof), expressly inclusive, but not limited to, the right, power and authority to:
(a) Execute and deliver in the name of Grantor, and each of them, any and all transfer orders, division orders, letters in lieu of transfer orders, indemnifications, certificates and other instruments of every nature that may be requested or required by any purchaser of Hydrocarbons from any of the Covered Properties for the purposes of effectuating payment of the proceeds of runs to Lender or which Lender may otherwise deem necessary or appropriate to effect the intent and purposes of the assignment contained in Section 3.1; and
(b) (If, under any product sales agreements other than division order or transfer orders, any proceeds of runs are required to be paid by the purchaser to Grantor, or either of them, such that under such existing agreements payment cannot be made of such proceeds of runs to Lender) execute such sales agreements, other agreements and/or amendments of any existing agreements as are necessary to direct proceeds of runs to be payable to Lender;
| 7 |
giving and granting unto said attorney-in-fact full power and authority to do and perform any and every act and thing whatsoever necessary and requisite to be done as fully and to all intents and purposes, as Grantor, or either of them, might or could do if personally present and Grantor, and each of them, shall be bound thereby as fully and effectively as if Grantor, and each of them, had personally executed, acknowledged and delivered any of the foregoing certificates or documents. The powers and authorities herein conferred upon Lender may be exercised by Lender through any person who, at the time of the execution of the particular instrument, is an officer, agent or representative of Lender. The power of attorney herein conferred is granted for valuable consideration and hence is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable so long as the Indebtedness, or any part thereof, shall remain unpaid. All persons dealing with Lender or any substitute shall be fully protected in treating the powers and authorities conferred by this paragraph as continuing in full force and effect until advised by Lender that all the secured indebtedness is fully and finally paid. Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, take such action as it deems appropriate in an effort to collect the proceeds of runs and any reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) so incurred by Lender shall be a demand obligation of the respective Grantor and shall be part of the secured indebtedness, and shall bear interest each day, from the date of such expenditure or payment until paid, at the Default Rate described in Section 2.3 hereof.
3.3 Upon Default by TRONCO and/or Grantor, or either of them as applicable, in performance of its obligations under the Note or any other Loan Document, the monthly proceeds of runs actually received by Lender may be held by Lender and applied first to all fees and expenses incurred by Lender in the enforcement of the terms of any Loan Document, then to the payment of all accrued interest on the Note and any other of the Indebtedness and then to the payment of installments of principal of the Note in the stated order of maturity and then to any other of the Indebtedness owing by Grantor, or either of them, to Lender in such manner as Lender may elect. In its sole discretion, Lender may elect to return any part of said funds to Grantor, or either of them, or to deposit the same to the respective Grantor's account without applying it to the Indebtedness.
3.4 The receipt by the Lender of any monies, including but not limited to money received as proceeds of runs, shall not in any manner change or alter in any respect the obligations of TRONCO upon the Note or other evidence of the Indebtedness, and nothing herein contained shall be construed as limiting the Lender to the collection of any of the Indebtedness out of the proceeds of runs. The Indebtedness shall continue as the absolute and unconditional obligation of TRONCO to pay, as provided in the Note or other instruments evidencing the Indebtedness, the amounts therein specified at their respective maturity dates, whether by acceleration or otherwise.
3.5 Lender is hereby absolved and released from all liability for failure or delay to enforce collection of the proceeds of runs and from all other responsibility in connection therewith except the responsibility to account to the respective Grantor for funds actually received. Grantor, and each of them, agree to indemnify and hold Lender harmless against any and all liabilities, actions, claims, judgments, costs, charges and attorneys' fees by reason of the assertion that Lender has received, either before or after the payment in full of the Indebtedness, funds from the sale of Hydrocarbons claimed by third persons, except for third parties who have valid claims. Lender shall have the right to defend against any such claims or actions, employing attorneys of its own selection. The foregoing indemnities shall not terminate upon the release, foreclosure or other termination of this Deed of Trust but will survive the foreclosure of this Deed of Trust or conveyance in lieu of foreclosure, and the repayment of the Indebtedness and the discharge and release of this Deed of Trust and the other documents evidencing and/or securing the Indebtedness.
| 8 |
WITHOUT LIMITATION, IT IS THE INTENTION OF TOLLC AND MPS AND TOLLC AND MPS AGREE THAT THE FOREGOING RELEASES AND INDEMNITIES SHALL APPLY TO EACH INDEMNIFIED PARTY WITH RESPECT TO ALL CLAIMS, DEMANDS, LIABILITIES, LOSSES, DAMAGES (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, CAUSES OF ACTION, JUDGMENTS, PENALTIES, COSTS AND EXPENSES (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION REASONABLE ATTORNEYS' FEES AND EXPENSES) WHICH IN WHOLE OR IN PART ARE CAUSED BY OR ARISE OUT OF THE NEGLIGENCE OF SUCH (AND/OR ANY OTHER) INDEMNIFIED PARTY. However, such indemnities shall not apply to any particular indemnified party (but shall apply to the other indemnified parties) to the extent the subject of the indemnification is caused by or arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such particular indeminified party. If not furnished with indemnity satisfactory to the Lender, Lender shall have the right to compromise and adjust any such claims, actions and judgments, and, in addition to the rights to be indemnified as herein provided, all amounts paid by Lender in compromise, satisfaction or discharge of any such claim, action or judgment and all court costs, attorneys' fees and other expenses of every character incurred by Lender shall be a demand obligation owing by TOLLC and MPS, shall be secured by the lien and security interest evidenced by this instrument and shall bear interest on each such amount from the date that the same is expended, advanced or incurred by Lender until the data of the reimbursement of same, at a rate of interest equal to the Note Default Rate.
3.6 Each of the provisions of this Article III shall be deemed a covenant running with the Land and shall be binding upon each Grantor, its respective successors and assigns, and inure to the benefit of Lender, its successors and assigns.

Each Supplemental Deed of Trust shall be treated as a Loan Document and shall be deemed to be cross-defaulted and cross-collateralized to every other Deed of Trust, Supplemental Deed of Trust and Loan Document such that a default under one Loan Document shall constitute a default under every other Loan Document
| 9 |
ARTICLE V
REMEDIES IN EVENT OF DEFAULT
5.1 The terms "Default" and "Event of Default" as used in this instrument shall each mean the failure of Borrower to make any payment under the Note when due or the failure of Grantor to timely and properly observe, keep or perform any covenant, agreement or condition required to be observed, kept or performed under any Loan Document.
5.2 It is intended that the Loan Documents be cross-defaulted and cross-collateralized such that a Default under one Loan Document shall constitute a Default under every other Loan Document entitling Leader to avail itself of all remedies, legal or equitable, arising under any of the Loan Documents or under applicable law.

Except as may be required by the laws of the jurisdiction in which any of the Covered Properties are located, this power of sale may be exercised by Lender or Trustee without judicial action or authority. The sale shall be made at the location, time and in accordance with the requirements of the laws of the jurisdiction where the Covered Properties are located. If the Covered Properties are located in a state where non-judicial foreclosure is allowed by power of sale granted in the mortgage document, the sale shall occur between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. on the date specified in the written notice required by the laws of the jurisdiction where the said Covered Properties are located in the county in which the Covered Properties, or any part thereof are situated; provided, however, that if the Covered Properties are situated in more than one county such sale of the Covered Properties, or any part thereof, may be made in the county in the state of Utah wherein any part of the Covered Properties are situated.

The recitals in any deed, assignment or other conveyance given by Trustee of a default, publication of notice of sale, demand that such sale should be made, postponement of sale, terms of sale, sale, name of purchaser, payment of purchase money and any other facts affecting the regularity or validity of such sale shall be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof, and such deed or deeds shall be conclusive against all persons as to all matters or facts therein recited.

| 11 |
5.7 Lender may resort to any security given by this instrument or to any other security now existing or hereafter given to secure the payment of the Indebtedness, in whole or in part, and in such portions and in such order as may seem best to Lender in its sole and uncontrolled discretion. Any such action shall not in anywise be considered as a waiver of any of the rights, benefits or liens evidenced by this instrument.
5.8 In those states where a non-judicial power of sale is unavailable and foreclosure must be authorized and/or effected pursuant to a local judicial action in accordance with applicable state law, Lender shall comply with the applicable state law in the pursuit of its remedy of foreclosure, and if a foreclosure sale pursuant to judicial authority is then conducted, shall apply the proceeds of sale in the order of priority set forth in Section 5.4 hereinabove, unless otherwise required under applicable state law.

ARTICLE VIII
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
8.1 All options and rights of election herein provided for the benefit of Lender are continuing, and the failure to exercise any such option or right of election upon a particular Default or breach or upon any subsequent Default or breach shall not be construed as waiving the right to exercise such option or election at any later date.

No exercise of the rights and powers herein granted and no delay or omission in the exercise of such rights and powers shall be held to exhaust the same or be construed as a waiver thereof, and every such right and power may be exercised at any time and from time to time.
8.2 If two or more parties shall at any time be Lenders of the Indebtedness, all of them may jointly exercise any right, option, election or other power, authority or benefit granted herein to Lender, or any of them may do so with the express consent of the other or others of them,

| 15 |
8.6 It
is the intention of the parties hereto to comply with the applicable usury laws; accordingly, it is agreed that notwithstanding
any provisions to the contrary in the Note, any instrument evidencing the Indebtedness, this instrument or in any of the documents
or instruments securing payment of the Indebtedness or otherwise relating thereto, in no event shall the Note or such documents
require the payment or permit the collection of interest in excess of the maximum amount permitted by such laws. If any such excess
of interest is contracted for, charged or received, under the Note, any instrument evidencing the Indebtedness, this instrument
or under the terms of any of the other documents securing payment of the Indebtedness or otherwise relating thereto, or in the
event the maturity of any of the Indebtedness is accelerated in whole or in part; or in the event that all or part of the principal
or interest of the Indebtedness shall be prepaid, so that under any of such circumstances, the amount of interest contracted for,
charged or received, under the Note or any instruments evidencing the Indebtedness, under this instrument or under any of the
other instruments securing payment of the Indebtedness or otherwise relating thereto, on the amount of principal actually outstanding
from time to time under the Note and other instruments evidencing the Indebtedness, shall exceed the maximum amount of
interest permitted by the applicable usury laws, now or hereafter enacted, then in any such event (a) the provisions of this paragraph
shall govern and control, (b) neither TRONCO nor any other person or entity now or hereafter liable for the payment of the Note
or any instrument evidencing the Indebtedness shall be obligated to pay the amount of such interest to the extent that it is in
excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted by the applicable usury laws, now or hereafter enacted, (c) any such excess
that may have been collected shall be either applied as a credit against the then unpaid
principal amount hereof or refunded to TRONCO, at Lender's option, and (d) the effective rate of interest shall be automatically
reduced to the maximum lawful contract rate allowed under the applicable usury laws, now or hereafter enacted. It is further agreed
that without limitation of the foregoing, all calculations of the rate of interest contracted for, charged or received under the
Note, or any other instrument evidencing the Indebtedness, under this instrument or under such other documents that are made for
the purpose of determining whether such rate exceeds the maximum lawful contract rate, shall be made, to the extent permitted
by the applicable usury laws, now or hereafter enacted, by amortizing, prorating, allocating and spreading in
equal parts during the period of the full stated term of the loans evidenced by the Note or the instruments evidencing the Indebtedness,
all interest at any time contracted for, charged or received from TRONCO or otherwise by Lender in connection with such loans.

| 1. | The section of the Current Loan Agreement entitled RECITALS is hereby amended, modified and expanded by addition of the following, to wit: |
| “R. Borrower and Lender have agreed to modify the terms and conditions for payment of the Note, as set forth in that certain Second Amended and Restated Promissory Note in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit “A” (the “Current Note”). |
S. The principal amount due and owing on the Current Note as of the Effective Date is $6,888,092.28.”

“The previously made Advances shall be evidenced by the Current Note dated as of January 1, 2014 which shall constitute a renewal, modification and extension of all prior promissory notes, and shall be payable to the order of Lender, and providing interest on the outstanding principal balance as advanced, from time to time, at the rate of eleven percent (11%) per annum. Any accrued but unpaid interest from and after the date when due, at the option of Lender, shall be capitalized at the end of the month when such interest was due and shall be added to the principal balance of the Current Note, and such capitalized sum shall bear interest at the Default Rate provided in the Current Note.”
| 1 |
| B. | A new full paragraph shall be added to Section 1.4 denoted Collateral for Credit Facility prior to the last full paragraph which shall read as follows, to wit: |
“In addition to the above collateral documents, the Current Note and the ACF Redemption Obligation, as defined in Section 2.3(F)(5)(a) below, shall be jointly and severally guaranteed by SDP and by Superior Design and Fabrication, LLC, a Utah limited liability company (“SDF”), (the “SDP and SDF Guarantors”), in substantially the form of such guaranty is attached hereto and labeled Exhibit “F” (the “Guaranty”).

As reflected in the Current Note, and provided that Borrower is not otherwise in default under the Current Note and/or any of the Loan Documents, Borrower shall have the unilateral right to further extend the Current Note beyond the Maturity Date of June 30, 2014 (each an “Extension”) as follows:
(a) By providing written notice to Lender on or before June 1, 2014 of the desire to extend the Maturity Date, the new Maturity Date will be December 31, 2014; provided that, Borrower pays Lender an amount equal to 1.5% of the then outstanding principal balance as of June 15, 2014 on or before July 1, 2014.
(b) By providing written notice to Lender on or before December 1, 2014 of the desire to extend the Maturity Date, the new Maturity Date will be June 30, 2015; provided that, Borrower pays Lender an amount equal to 2% of the then outstanding principal balance as of December 15, 2014 on or before January 25, 2015.

| 2 |
All of the foregoing Extension payments shall be hereinafter referred to as “Extension Fees”.
Notwithstanding the above, the Current Note and the Loan shall become immediately due and payable in the event any shareholder of Borrower, SDP or SDF owning 10% or more of the outstanding Common Stock of Borrower, SDP or SDF, respectively (other than the Lender) sells, transfers and/or conveys any shares of the common stock of Borrower, SDP or SDF held in the name of such shareholder, either directly or indirectly, to a third party purchaser (not already an existing shareholder of Borrower, SDP or SDF) unless the Borrower, SDP or SDF has obtained the prior written consent of the Lender to such proposed transaction.”
| D. | Section 2.1 denoted Principal Payments is hereby amended, supplemented and modified to read as follows, to wit: |
“The Principal due under the Current Note (together with any accrued interest thereon) shall be due and payable as follows:

(c) All remaining principal and accrued but unpaid interest due under the Current Note shall be due and payable on June 30, 2014 (the “Initial Maturity Date”) except to the extent such Initial Maturity Date is extended as per the provisions set forth in the Current Note.
| 3 |
(d) If at the end of each Extension year as per the provisions set forth hereinbelow, Borrower has not reduced the principal balance of this Note by at least $500,000.00, Borrower shall make an additional payment equal to $500,000.00 less the difference between such current Extension year’s beginning and ending principal balance by January 15 following the end of such Extension year.
(e) If Borrower fully repays all outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest due under this Note on or before December 31, 2014, then Borrower also shall pay Lender an additional amount of one percent (1%) of the outstanding principal balance of the Note as of January 1, 2014 unless Borrower has timely paid the Extension Fee provided in Section 1.8 (a) hereof in which instance the 1% Additional Payment Fee is waived. If Borrower does not fully repay the Note until sometime between January 1, 2015 and December 31, 2015, Borrower also shall pay Lender two percent (2%) of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note as of January 1, 2015 unless Borrower has timely paid both the Extension Fees set forth in Section 1.8 (b) and (c) hereof in which instance the 2% Additional Payment Fee is waived . All of such payments shall be referred to herein as the “Additional Payment Fees.”
The term “Indebtedness” shall mean the sum of the principal balance of the Current Note, all unpaid interest accruing on the Current Note, and all other amounts due under the Current Note, including the Additional Payment Fees.
The term “EBITDA” shall mean the combined earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization of SDP and SDF calculated in accordance with the United States GAAP.”
The term “Free Cash Flow” as defined herein shall mean 33% of the combined quarterly EBITDA of SDP and SDF.
E. Section 2.3 denoted CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURE(S) and/or PERPETUAL WARRANT and EQUITY MATTERS subsection (F)(5) is hereby deleted in its entirety and substituted therefore is the following:
“(a) Upon full and complete payment of all Indebtedness, the Borrower shall simultaneously redeem all of the ACF Shares from ACF (or the designee holding the ACF Shares, the “ACF Shareholder(s)”) then owned by the ACF Shareholders (the “ACF Redemption Obligation”).

In the event that the selling ACF Shareholder(s) and the Borrower do not agree within thirty (30) days, the selling ACF Shareholder(s) and the Borrower shall designate an appraiser (the “Appraiser”) to determine the Agreed Value Per Share. Such Appraiser shall be designated within ten (10) days following the expiration of such thirty (30) day period. If the Borrower and the selling ACF Shareholder(s) cannot agree on an Appraiser within such ten (10) day period, the Borrower shall contact the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) who shall, after meeting with the Borrower and the selling ACF Shareholder(s) and pursuant to reasonable judgment and its rules of Arbitration, appoint the Appraiser (all at Borrower’s expense). The Appraiser shall submit its determination of the Agreed Value Per Share to the Borrower and to the selling ACF Shareholder(s) within thirty (30) days after the date of its selection. The determination by the Appraiser shall not take into account either majority or minority status as a shareholder but shall value the Borrower as a whole and determine the value of each share issued by the Borrower without consideration of majority or minority status, corporate control, insider or outsider ownership issues, etc. The determination of the Agreed Value Per Share in accordance with the foregoing procedure shall be final and binding upon the Borrower and the selling ACF Shareholder(s). The Appraiser selected pursuant to the provisions of this Section shall be a qualified person with prior experience in appraising businesses comparable to the business of the Borrower and shall not be an affiliate of or an interested person with respect to the Borrower or any shareholder of the Borrower including any ACF Shareholder(s). In determining the Agreed Value Per Share the Appraiser shall not take into account any insurance maintained on the lives of any shareholder, officer or director of the Borrower.

(ii) “Floor Value Per Share” means such value per share that the ACF Shareholder(s) on a per share basis shall receive, being an amount of not less than sixteen percent (16%) per annum profit on the principal amounts advanced under the Current Note and pursuant to the Loan, including all payments of interest and investment banking fees on the Loan, but excluding all extension, renewal and/or reinstatement fees for the time period commencing on the Third Amendment Effective Date and ending when all principal and interest due on the Current Note and the Loan are paid in full.
(iii) “Closing” means the date when the Borrower has wire transferred or otherwise paid the Lender and the ACF Shareholder(s) all Indebtedness and the Purchase Price, and the Lender and/or the ACF Shareholder(s) has transferred and delivered to Borrower or its designee: (i) good and marketable title to the ACF Shares free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, and (ii) all Loan Documents, and all collateral held by Lender to collateralize the Indebtedness and the ACF Redemption Obligation.
(c) Upon the Maturity Date, the Borrower and Lender shall utilize their commercially reasonable best efforts to cause the Closing to occur on a timely basis, and Borrower shall pay Lender and the ACF Shareholder(s), respectively all Indebtedness and the Purchase Price. The Purchase Price to be paid by Borrower to the ACF Shareholder(s) at Closing shall be the Floor Value Per Share multiplied by 200,000 and the Closing shall occur. Such payment shall not preclude Lender and/or the ACF Shareholder(s) from seeking additional payment on the ACF Shares for the difference, if any, between the Agreed Value Per Share and the Floor Value Per Share to the extent Lender and/or the ACF Shareholder(s) are able to show the Agreed Value Per Share exceeds the Floor Value Per Share; provided, that Lender and/or the ACF Shareholder(s) initiates such claim within ninety (90) days after the Closing.
(d) All collateral securing the Current Note and the Loan will remain as security for Borrower’s obligation under this Section and shall not be released or discharged until the ACF Shareholders have been paid the Purchase Price specified in Section 2.3 (c) hereinabove.

SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED
PROMISSORY NOTE
Salt Lake City, Utah
| $6,888,092.28 | January 1, 2014 |
TRONCO ENERGY CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation, (“Maker”) for value received, promises and agrees to pay to the order of ACF PROPERTY MANAGEMENT, INC., a California corporation (“ACF”) (as Assignee from FORTUNA ASSET MANAGEMENT, L.L.C.) (“FAM”)) or Assigns (herein called “Lender” which term shall herein in every instance refer to the owner or holder of this Note), at 00000 Xxxxxxx Xxxx., Xxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000, or at such other place as Lender may hereafter designate in writing, in lawful money of the United States of America, the principal sum of SIX MILLION EIGHT HUNDRED EIGHTY EIGHT THOUSAND NINETY TWO AND 28/100 DOLLARS ($6,888,092.28) (the “Loan”), or so much thereof as may be outstanding from time to time under the terms and limitations of the Loan Agreement dated August 10, 2007 between FAM, Maker and Philco Exploration, LLC, as amended by that certain First Amendment to Loan Agreement August 10, 2007 dated December 10, 2007 (“First Amendment”); and as further amended by the Second Amendment to Loan Agreement August 10, 2007 dated June 15, 2009 (“Second Amendment”); and as further amended by the Third Amendment to Loan Agreement August 10, 2007 dated December __, 2013 (the “Third Amendment”) (collectively, the “Agreement”), together with interest accruing during the term hereof on the principal balance from time to time outstanding until paid, at an annual rate of eleven percent (11%) per annum. All defined terms contained herein shall have the same meaning as contained in the Agreement except where otherwise specifically provided herein. Interest shall be calculated on the average daily outstanding principal balance. Upon Maturity (defined hereinbelow) or upon an Event of Default (defined hereinbelow) by Maker, the principal balance hereof and all accrued but unpaid interest shall bear interest at the rate of twenty-three percent (23%) per annum (“Default Rate”).
From and after the date hereof, the outstanding principal balance of this Note and the Loan described in the Agreement is and shall be a fixed term loan and no further advances will be made under the terms of this Note or under the terms of the Agreement, provided however additional sums may be added to the principal balance of this Note, from time to time, as provided for hereinbelow.
The principal of this Note has been fully advanced to the Maker hereof prior to the date hereof.
| 12 |
Maker shall pay accrued interest at the rate specified hereinabove and calculated as specified hereinabove monthly, in arrears, commencing on the first (1st) day of the month after the date of this Note and continuing regularly thereafter on the first (1st) day of each succeeding month until Maturity.
Maker shall repay the outstanding principal balance due (together with accrued interest thereon) under this Note as follows,
| (1) | Monthly payments of principal and accrued interest in the amount of $83,150.85 commencing on February 1, 2014 and on the first day of each succeeding month thereafter until the Note is fully repaid (“Monthly Payments”). |
| (2) | For such time as this Note remains unpaid, quarterly payments (i) on or before April 30 for the time period of January 1 through March 31; (ii) on or before July 31 for the time period of April 1 through June 30; (iii) on or before October 31 for the time period of July 1 through September 30; and (iv) on or before January 31 of the following year for the time period of October 1 through December 31 (commencing 2014 and thereafter), equal to 33% of the Free Cash Flow (as defined below) less the amount of Monthly Payments during such time period; provided, however, if such number is negative, then no payment shall be due for such time period under this provision. Whether or not any payments are due under this provision, Maker shall provide an accounting of the calculation thereof on or before the last date of the succeeding month. |
| (3) | All remaining principal and accrued but unpaid interest shall be due and payable on June 30, 2014 (the “Initial Maturity Date”) except to the extent such Initial Maturity Date is extended as per the provisions set forth hereinbelow. |
| (4) | If at the end of each Extension year as per the provisions set forth hereinbelow, Maker has not reduced the principal balance of this Note by at least $500,000.00, Maker shall make an additional payment equal to $500,000.00 less the difference between such current Extension year’s beginning and ending principal balance by January 15 following the end of such Extension year. |
| (5) | If Borrower fully repays all outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest due under this Note on or before December 31, 2014, then Borrower also shall pay Lender an additional amount of one percent (1%) of the outstanding principal balance of the Note as of January 1, 2014 unless Borrower has timely paid the First Extension fee as set forth below in which instance the 1% Additional Payment Fee is waived. If Borrower does not fully repay the Note until sometime between January 1, 2015 and December 31, 2015, Borrower also shall pay Lender two percent (2%) of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note as of January 1, 2015 unless Borrower has timely paid both the Second Extension Fee and the Third Extension Fee as set forth below in which instance the 2% Additional Payment Fee is waived. All of such payments shall be referred to herein as the “Additional Payment Fees”. |
| 13 |
All payments made by Borrower shall be applied in the following order:
| (1) | All outstanding fees and expenses due under this Note, the Agreement or any other Loan Document; |
| (2) | All accrued and unpaid interest; and |
| (3) | All outstanding and unpaid principal on the Note. |
The principal balance of his Note, all accrued but unpaid interest, and all other amounts due under this Note, including the Additional Payment Fees (collectively the Indebtedness”), may be prepaid at any time from and after the date of this Note, either in whole or in part, without penalty. Further, Maker shall apply any proceeds received, directly or indirectly, by Maker or any of its affiliates, subsidiaries or shareholders to the principal balance due under this Note, up to full repayment of the Indebtedness from (i) the sale of any assets of Maker, Philco or any other subsidiary (including Tronco Ohio, LLC) and/or (ii) the consummation of that certain initial public offering whereby a portion of Superior Drilling Products, LLC’s (or any other affiliate of Superior Drilling Products, LLC) (collectively the “Corporation”) consummates an initial public offering, whereby its securities are publicly registered on a recognized United States national securities exchange and sold to various Persons in an amount of $25,000,000 or more (the “IPO”). For the purposes hereof, any prepayments upon the Indebtedness shall be applied in the manner and order as provided for in Section 2.4 of the Agreement.
Pursuant to the Third Amendment, Maker is entitled to extend the Initial Maturity Date of this Note by up to three (3) additional six (6) month periods (each an “Extension”) beginning on the Initial Maturity Date upon Maker’s giving written notice to Lender of at least thirty (30) days prior to the date of each Extension as follows:
(a) if Maker elects to so extend the Initial Maturity Date (“First Extension”) of this Note to December 31, 2014 and gives Lender written notice thereof on or before June 1, 2014, the payment by Maker to Lender for such First Extension shall be equal to 1.5% of the then outstanding principal balance due upon this Note as of June 15, 2014, with payment of said 1.5% fee to be paid on or before July 1, 2014;
(b) if Maker elects to extend the Maturity Date of this Note for a second additional six (6) month period to June 30, 2015 (“Second Extension”) and gives Lender written notice thereof by December 1, 2014, the payment by Maker to Lender for such Second Extension shall be equal to 2% of the then outstanding principal balance due upon this Note as of December 15, 2014, with payment of said 2% fee to be paid on or before January 25, 2015; and
(c) if Maker elects to extend the Maturity Date of this Note for a third additional six (6) month period to December 31, 2015 (“Third Extension”) and gives Lender written notice thereof by June 1, 2015, the payment by Maker to Lender for such Third Extension shall be equal to 2.5% of the then outstanding principal balance due upon this Note as of June 15, 2015, with payment of said 2.5% fee to be paid on or before July 1, 2015.
| 14 |
All of the foregoing Extension payments shall be hereinafter referred to as “Extension Fees”.
The rights of Maker herein to so extend shall be only exercisable by Maker in the event Maker is not otherwise in default under the terms of this Note, any Loan Document or of the Agreement at the time such written notice to extend is given.
The term “EBITDA” shall mean the combined earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization of Superior Drilling Products, LLC and Superior Design and Fabrication, LLC calculated in accordance with the United States GAAP.
The term “Free Cash Flow” as defined herein shall mean 33% of the combined quarterly EBITDA of Superior Drilling Products, LLC and Superior Design and Fabrications, LLC.
The term “Maturity” or “Maturity Date” of the Note shall be the date upon which each permitted Extension ends if Maker chooses not to elect to extend for the permitted additional six (6) month period according to the terms provided hereinabove or the date upon which the last permitted Extension ends.
TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE IN REGARDS TO MAKER’S PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER.
Notwithstanding the above, Lender reserves the right hereunder to declare this Note due and payable in full at any time prior to Maturity if Maker or the Corporation consummates an IPO. In such event, the Indebtedness shall be immediately due and payable no later than two (2) business days after the date that Maker or the Corporation, as the case may be, receives funding from such IPO.
Additionally, and not in lieu of the above, the Indebtedness shall become immediately due and payable , in the event any shareholder of Maker, SDP and/or SDF owning 10% or more of the outstanding common stock of Maker, SDP and/or SDF (other than the Lender) sells, transfers and/or conveys any shares of the common stock of Maker, SDP and/or SDF) held in the name of such shareholder, either directly or indirectly, to a third party person (not already an existing shareholder of Maker, SDP and/or SDF, or an affiliate thereof or not directly or indirectly owned by Xxxx Xxxxx and/or Xxxxxxx Xxxxx), unless the Maker, SDP and/or SDF has obtained the prior written consent of the Lender to such proposed transaction.
| 15 |
If a payment on this Note shall become due on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday under the laws of the State of California on which day Lender is not open for business, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding business day of Lender, unless the effect of such extension would be to carry the payment over to the next calendar month, in which case such payment shall be due on the preceding business day of Lender, and such extension or reduction of time shall in such case be included in computing interest in connection with such payment. All sums required to paid hereunder shall be applied first to any sums expended by Lender to preserve or protect the collateral securing this Note (including advances, if any, made to pay the taxes thereon), then to any reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by Lender in enforcing the provision of this Note or any document securing same, if any, then to accrued interest and then to principal, except that Maker may prepay any principal amount prior to its due date. Provided however, if at any time Lender receives, from Maker or otherwise, any amount applicable to the Loan which is less than all amounts due and payable at such time, Lender may apply that payment to amounts then due and payable in any manner and in any order determined by Lender, in Lender’s discretion. Maker agrees that neither Lender’s acceptance of a payment from Maker in an amount that is less than all amounts then due and payable nor Lender’s application of such payment shall constitute or be deemed to constitute either a waiver of the unpaid amounts or an accord and satisfaction.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, if any monthly installment due hereunder is not received by Lender on or before the 5th day of each month or if any other amount payable under this Note, the Deed(s) of Trust or any other Loan Document is not received by Lender within 5 days after the date such amount is due, counting from and including the date such amount is due, Maker shall pay to Lender, immediately and without demand by Lender, a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of such monthly installment or other amount due. Maker acknowledges that its failure to make timely payments will cause Lender to incur additional expenses in servicing and processing the Loan evidenced by this Note, and that it is extremely difficult and impractical to determine those additional expenses. Maker agrees that the late charge payable pursuant to this Paragraph represents a fair and reasonable estimate, taking into account all circumstances existing on the date of this Note, of the additional expenses Lender will incur by reason of such late payment. The late charge is payable in addition to, and not in lieu of, any interest payable at the Default Rate as set forth above.
Any accrued but unpaid interest from and after the date when due upon this Note, at the option of Lender, shall be capitalized at the end of the month when such interest is due and shall be added to the principal balance of this Note and such capitalized sum shall bear interest in accordance with the terms of this Note at the Default Rate provided for hereinabove from the date when such sum was originally due and payable hereunder.
Maker agrees to pay an effective rate of interest equal to the sum of the interest rate provided for in this Note and any additional rate of interest resulting from any other charges of interest or in the nature of interest paid or to be paid in connection with the Loan and any other fees or amounts to be paid by Maker pursuant to any of the other Loan Documents. Neither this Note nor any of the other Loan Documents shall be construed to create a contract for the use, forbearance or detention of money requiring payment of interest at a rate greater than the maximum interest rate permitted to be charged under applicable law. If any applicable law limiting the amount of interest or other charges permitted to be collected from Maker in connection with the Loan is interpreted so that any interest or other charge provided for in any Loan Document, whether considered separately or together with other charges provided for in any other Loan Document, violates that law, and Maker is entitled to the benefit of that law, that interest or charge is hereby reduced to the extent necessary to eliminate that violation. The amounts, if any, previously paid to Lender in excess of the permitted amounts shall be applied by Lender to reduce the unpaid principal balance of this Note. For the purpose of determining whether any applicable law limiting the amount of interest or other charges permitted to be collected from Maker has been violated, all indebtedness that constitutes interest, as well as other charges made in connection with the indebtedness that constitute interest, shall be deemed to be allocated and spread ratably over the stated term of the Note. Unless otherwise required by applicable law, such allocation and spreading shall be effected in such a manner that the rate of interest so computed is uniform throughout the stated term of this Note.
| 16 |
If an “Event of Default” (as defined below) be made in the performance of Maker under this Note, then the Lender may, at Lender’s option, declare the entire unpaid principal hereof and all accrued interest on this Note immediately due and payable without additional notice, demand or presentment, all of which are hereby waived, and upon such Lender hereof shall have the right to foreclosure or otherwise enforce all liens or security interest securing payment hereof, or any part hereof, and offset against this Note any sum or sums owed by the Lender to Maker. Failure of the Lender to exercise this option shall not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise the same upon the occurrence of a subsequent “Event of Default”.
For purposes hereof, an “Event of Default” shall mean:
| (1) | the failure by Maker to perform any obligation to pay principal or interest when due under the Note after receipt of written notice of such failure to pay and after the expiration of a five (5) day grace period, |
| (2) | the failure by Maker or any other obligor to perform any other obligation or to pay any other sum when due under the terms of the Note, each Master Deed of Trust, Mortgage, Assignment of Production, Security Agreement and Financing Statement (Multi-State Oil and Gas Interests) (the “Deed(s) of Trust”), the Xxxxx Family, L.P. D/T, the Security Agreement/Pledge Agreement(s), the Debenture(s), the SECURITY AGREEMENT-PLEDGE(S), (and/or Owner’s Consent(s) to Pledge), the Life Insurance Agreement, the Agreement, as amended, and any other Loan Document, or |
| (3) | Maker’s, SDP’s and/or SDF’s assignment for the benefit of creditors or becoming the subject of any voluntary of involuntary bankruptcy proceeding, |
| (4) | The filing of any bankruptcy proceeding, either voluntary or involuntary by or against any Guarantor of this Note as same are described in the Agreement, as amended. |
| 17 |
Except as otherwise provided hereinabove, Maker and each surety, guarantor endorser and other party ever liable for payment of any sums of money payable on this Note jointly and severally waive presentment and demand for payment, protest, notice of protest and non-payment or dishonor, notice of acceleration, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of intent to demand, diligence in collecting, and grace, and consent to all extensions without notice for any period or periods of time and partial payments, before or after Maturity, without prejudice to the Lender. The Lender shall similarly have the right to deal in any way, at any time, with one or more of the foregoing parties without notice of any other party, and to grant any such party an extensions of time for payment of any of said indebtedness, or to release part or all of the collateral securing this Note, or to grant any other indulgences or forbearances whatsoever, without notice to any other party and without in any way affecting the personal liability of any party hereunder.
If the Lender expends any effort in any attempt to enforce payment of all or any part or installment of any sum, either principal and/or interest, due and the Lender, or if this Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection, or if it is collected through any legal proceedings, Maker agrees to pay all reasonable collection costs and fees incurred by the Lender, including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses.
This Note is made and is deemed performable at 00000 Xxxxxxx Xxxx., Xxxxxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000, and Maker and each surety, guarantor, endorser and other party ever liable for payment of any sums of money on this Note, jointly and severally waive the right to be sued hereon elsewhere. This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Utah.
Any check, draft, money order or other instrument given in payment of all or any portion hereof may be accepted by the Lender and handled in collection in the customary manner, but the same shall not constitute payment hereunder or diminish any rights of the Lender except to the extent that actual cash proceeds of such instruments are unconditionally received by the Lender and applied to this indebtedness in the manner elsewhere herein provided.
It is the intention of the parties to comply strictly with applicable usury laws of the State of Utah, if any; accordingly, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Note or in any of the documents securing the payment hereof or otherwise relating hereto, in no event shall this Note or such documents require or permit the payment, taking, reserving, receiving, collection or charging of any sums constituting interest under applicable laws which exceed the maximum amount permitted by such laws. If any such excess interest is called for, contracted for, charged, taken reserved or received in connection with the loan evidenced by this Note or in any of the documents securing the payment hereof or otherwise relating hereto, or in any communication by Lender or any other person to Marker or any other person, or in the event all or part of the principal or interest hereof shall be prepaid or accelerated, so that under any of such circumstances or under any other circumstances whatsoever the amount of interest contracted for, charged, taken, reserved, or received on the amount of principal actually outstanding from time to time under this Note shall exceed the maximum amount of interest permitted by applicable usury laws, then in any such event it is agreed as follows: (i) the provisions of this paragraph shall govern and control, (ii) neither the Maker nor any other person or entity now or hereafter liable for the payment of this Note shall be obligated to pay the amount of interest permitted by applicable laws, (iii) any such excess which is or has been received notwithstanding this paragraph shall be credited against the then unpaid principal balance hereof or, if this Note has been or would be paid in full by such credit, refunded to Maker, and (iv) the provision of this Note and the document securing the payment hereof and otherwise relating hereto, and any communication to Maker, shall immediately be deemed reformed and such excess interest reduced, without the necessity of executing any other document, to the maximum lawful rate allowed under applicable laws as now or hereafter construed by courts having jurisdiction hereof or thereof. Without limiting the foregoing, all calculations of the rate of interest contracted for, charged, collected, taken, reserved, or received. The terms of this paragraph shall be deemed to be incorporated in every Loan Document, and any communication relating to this Note and the Loan.

The indebtedness of Borrower to the undersigned pursuant to the Note and/or the ACF Redemption Obligation, whether now existing or hereafter arising is hereby assigned to Lender to the extent of the amount of this Guaranty as security for the payment of all liability or liabilities of Borrower to Lender under the Note and the ACF Redemption Obligation.
The undersigned acknowledge and agree that possession of this Guaranty by Lender constitutes true and correct execution and actual and proper delivery of same to Lender and the undersigned waive notice of acceptance of this Guaranty and of any liability to which it applies or may apply, and waive presentment and demand for payment thereof, notice of dishonor or non-payment thereof, collection or instigation of suit or any other action by Lender in collection thereof including any notice of default in payment thereof or other notice to, or demand of payment therefore on, any party.
