C. The rights and obligations created by this Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted under the laws of the State of Nevada, without regard to any conflicts of law considerations.

XIV. Effective Date to Engage Drilling and Exploration
The effective date of this Agreement to Engage Drilling and Exploration shall be that date on which Operator has received notice of the election to participate by an adequate number of Participants to engage in the drilling and exploration activities provided for in this Agreement, and the Participants have executed a counterpart of this Agreement, and delivered the cash payments to Operator as provided for in this Agreement.

Preamble: This Definitive Short Form Agreement is agreed to be expanded into the long form agreement to be completed and signed off by the parties by November 4, 3012 which may be mutually extended by the parties signed and in writing and attached for reference hereto.
1. December 31, 2009, Firecreek, through its wholly owned subsidiary Energy Producers, Inc. (“Energy Producers” or “EPI”) closed an Acquisition Agreement including an Assignment of Interests in Oil and Gas Leases (the “Assignment”), with Xxxxx Oil & Gas, Inc., (“Whitt” or “Operator”) a Texas corporation acquiring 50% working interests and corresponding 32% net revenue interests in oil and gas leases representing the aggregate total of 240 acre leases, reserves, three xxxxx, and equipment located in Callahan, Stephens, and Shakelford Counties, West Central Texas.
2. Firecreek proposes initially to undertake with MNVN as follows: prepare to contract for a 3-D Seismic contract covering the Xxxxxxx property in Xxxxxxxxxxx County, Texas. The seismic study will focus on specific Xxxxxxx Shale formation characteristics that will assist in the drilling of one and possibly two Xxxxxxx horizontal xxxxx or an equivalent of up to eight vertical xxxxx on the Xxxxxxx lease at a proposed initial depth of approximately 5,200’ to 5,500’ feet. There have been recent Xxxxxxx xxxxx in the area that have been productive in the oil segment or phase of the Xxxxxxx Shale that have justified the seismic study. The onsite seismic work is expected to commence within 90 days.
3. Price contributed by MNVN for the initial 3-D Seismic study and proposed herewith to buy out 50% partner interests, and other costs with re engaged start up activities: $175,000 of which $10,000 has been received by Firecreek as a deposit to date thereby leaving a balance of $165,000 due.

Firecreek to come to terms of agreement regarding financing for the proposed drilling and development should the parties agree to further move forward after the Seismic study.
5. Miscellaneous.

A mineral interest is the ownership of rights to gas, oil, or other minerals as they naturally occur in place, at or below the surface of a tract of land. Ownership of the minerals carries with it the right to make such reasonable use of the surface as may be necessary to explore for and produce the minerals. Only the mineral owner (or fee owner) may execute an oil or gas lease conveying his interest in a tract of land. Severance: The owner of all rights to a tract of land (vertically or horizontally). In horizontal severance, for example, if he chooses to sell all or part of the mineral rights, two distinct estates are created: the surface rights to the tract of land and the mineral rights to the same tract. The two estates may change hands independently of each other. Severed minerals rights may be restricted as to mineral type, or limited by depth, (in which case the landowner retains the rights to minerals other than those severed, and to depth intervals other than those severed.)
