States, except for Alaska and Hawaii, for any Person other than a Plains Entity
or Partnership Entity, (b) crude oil marketing activities, and (c)

by such Plains Entity with respect to oil and gas properties owned jointly with
other Persons.
2.2 PERMITTED EXCEPTIONS. Notwithstanding any provision of Section 2.1
to the contrary, a Plains Entity may engage in a Restricted Business under the
following circumstances:
(a) The Restricted Business was engaged in by the Plains Entity on
the date of this Agreement.
(b) The Restricted Business is conducted pursuant to and in
accordance with the terms of the Marketing Agreement or any other arrangement
entered into with the MLP or either of the OLPs with the concurrence of the
Conflicts Committee.
(c) The value of the assets acquired in a transaction that
comprise a Restricted Business does not exceed $10 million, as determined by the
Board of Directors of Plains Resources.
(d) (i) The value of the assets acquired in a transaction that
comprise a Restricted Business exceed $10 million, as determined by the Board of
Directors of Plains Resources and (ii) the General Partner (with the approval of
the Conflicts Committee) has elected not to cause a member of the Partnership
Group to pursue such opportunity in accordance with the procedures set forth in
Section 2.3.
2.3 PROCEDURES. In the event that a Plains Entity acquires a
Restricted Business comprised of assets valued in excess of $10 million, as
determined by the Board of Directors of Plains Resources, then not later than 30
days after the consummation of the acquisition by such Plains Entity of the
Restricted Business, such Plains Entity shall notify the General Partner of such
purchase and offer the Partnership the opportunity to purchase such Restricted
Business. As soon as practicable, but in any event, within 30 days after receipt
of such notification, the General Partner shall notify the Plains Entity that
either (i) the General Partner has elected, with the approval of the Conflicts
Committee, not to cause a member of the Partnership Group to purchase such
Restricted
-4-
Business, in which event the Plains Entity shall be free to continue to engage
in such Restricted Business, or (ii) the General Partner has elected to cause a
member of the Partnership Group to purchase such Restricted Business, in which
event the following procedures shall be followed:
(a) The Plains Entity shall submit a good faith offer to the
General Partner to sell the Restricted Business (the "Offer") to any member of
the Partnership Group on the terms and for the consideration stated in the
Offer.
(b) The Plains Entity and the General Partner shall negotiate in
good faith, for 60 days after receipt of such Offer by the General Partner, the
terms on which the Restricted Business will be sold to a member of the
Partnership Group. The Plains Entity shall provide all information concerning
the business, operations and finances of such Restricted Business as may be
reasonably requested by the General Partner.
(i) If the Plains Entity and the General Partner agree on such
terms within 60 days after receipt by the General Partner of the Offer, a
member of the Partnership Group shall purchase the Restricted Business on
such terms as soon as commercially practicable after such agreement has
been reached.
(ii) If the Plains Entity and the General Partner are unable to
agree on the terms of a sale during such 60-day period, the Plains Entity
shall attempt to sell the Restricted Business to a Person that is not an
Affiliate of the Plains Entity (a "NonAffiliate Purchaser") within nine
months of the termination of such 60-day period. Any such sale to a
NonAffiliate Purchaser must be for a purchase price, as determined by the
Board of Directors of Plains Resources, not less than 95% of the purchase
price last offered by a member of the Partnership Group.
(c) If, after the expiration of such nine-month period, the
Plains Entity has not sold the Restricted Business to a NonAffiliate Purchaser,
it shall submit another Offer (the "Second Offer") to the General Partner within
seven days after the expiration of such nine-month period. The Plains Entity
shall provide all information concerning the business, operations and finances
of such Restricted Business as may be reasonably requested by the General
Partner.
(i) If the General Partner, with the concurrence of the
Conflicts Committee, elects not to cause a member of the Partnership Group
to pursue the Second Offer, the Plains Entity shall be free to continue to
engage in such Restricted Business.
(ii) If the General Partner shall elect to cause a member of the
Partnership Group to purchase such Restricted Business, then the General
Partner and the Plains Entity shall negotiate the terms of such purchase
for 60 days. If the Plains Entity and the General Partner agree on such
terms within 60 days after receipt by the General Partner of the Second
Offer, a member of the Partnership Group shall purchase the Restricted
Business on such terms as soon as commercially practicable after such
agreement has been reached.
-5-
(iii) If during such 60-day period, no agreement has been reached
between the Plains Entity and the General Partner or a member of the
Partnership, the Plains Entity and the General Partner will engage an
independent investment banking firm with a national reputation to determine
the value of the Restricted Business. Such investment banking firm will
determine the value of the Restricted Business within 30 days and furnish
the Plains Entity and the General Partner its opinion of such value. The
Plains Entity will pay the fees and expenses of such investment banking
firm. Upon receipt of such opinion, the General Partner will have the
option, subject to the approval of the Conflicts Committee, to (A) cause a
member of the Partnership Group to purchase the Restricted Business for an
amount equal to the value determined by such investment banking firm or (B)
decline to purchase such Restricted Business, in which event the Plains
Entity will be free to continue to engage in such Restricted Business.
2.4 TERMINATION. The provisions of this Article II may be terminated
by Plains Resources upon a "Change of Control" of Plains Resources. A Change of
Control of Plains Resources shall be deemed to have occurred upon the occurrence
of one or more of the following events: (i) any sale, lease, exchange or other
transfer (in one transaction or a series of related transactions) of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Plains Entities to any Person and its
Affiliates unless immediately following such sale, lease, exchange or other
transfer such assets are owned, directly or indirectly, by the Plains Entities;

pursuant to a transaction in which the outstanding Voting Stock of Plains
Resources is changed into or exchanged for cash, securities or other property,

corporation or its parent and (b) the holders of the Voting Stock of Plains
Resources immediately prior to such transaction own, directly or indirectly, not
less than a majority of the Voting Stock of the surviving corporation or its
parent immediately after such transaction; and (iii) a "person" or "group"
(within the meaning of Sections 13(d) or 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act) being or
becoming the "beneficial owner" (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the
Exchange Act) of more than 50% of all Voting Stock of Plains Resources, then
outstanding, except in a merger or consolidation which would not constitute a
Change of Control under clause (ii) above.
2.5 SCOPE OF RESTRICTED BUSINESS PROHIBITION. Except as provided in
this Article II and the Partnership Agreement, each Plains Entity shall be free
to engage in any business activity whatsoever, including those that may be in
direct competition with any Partnership Entity.
2.6 ENFORCEMENT. The Plains Entities agree and acknowledge that the
Partnership Group does not have an adequate remedy at law for the breach by the
Plains Entities of the covenants and agreements set forth in this Article II,
and that any breach by the Plains Entities of the covenants and agreements set
forth in Article II would result in irreparable injury to the Partnership Group.
The Plains Entities further agree and acknowledge that any member of the
Partnership Group may, in addition to the other remedies which may be available
to the Partnership Group, file a suit in equity to enjoin the Plains Entities
from such breach, and consent to the issuance of injunctive relief hereunder.

3.3 LIMITATIONS REGARDING INDEMNIFICATION. Plains Resources shall have
no indemnification obligation under Section 3.2 for claims made after the third
anniversary of the date of this Agreement. The aggregate liability of Plains
Resources in respect of all Losses under Section 3.2 shall not exceed $3 million
(including up to $500,000 of reserves included in the MLP's working capital upon
closing of the MLP's initial public offering).
3.4 INDEMNIFICATION PROCEDURES.
(a) The Partnership Entities agree that within a reasonable
period of time after they become aware of facts giving rise to a claim for
indemnification pursuant to Section 3.2, they will provide notice thereof in
writing to Plains Resources specifying the nature of and specific basis for such
claim.
(b) Plains Resources shall have the right to control all aspects
of the defense of (and any counterclaims with respect to) any claims brought
against the Partnership Entities that are covered by the indemnification set
forth in Section 3.2, including, without limitation, the selection of counsel,
determination of whether to appeal any decision of any court and the settling of
any such matter or any issues relating thereto; provided, however, that no such
settlement shall be entered into without the consent of the Partnership Entities
unless it includes a full release of the Partnership Entities from such matter
or issues, as the case may be.
(c) The Partnership Entities agree, at their own cost and
expense, to cooperate fully with Plains Resources with respect to all aspects of
the defense of any claims covered by the indemnification set forth in Section
3.2, including, without limitation, the prompt furnishing to Plains of any
correspondence or other notice relating thereto that the General Partner or the
Partnership Entities may receive, permitting the names of the General Partner
and the Partnership Entities to be utilized in connection with such defense, the
making available to Plains Resources of any files, records or other information
of the General Partner or the Partnership Entities that Plains Resources
considers relevant to such defense and the making available to Plains Resources
of any employees of the Partnership Entities or the General Partner; provided,
however, that in connection therewith Plains Resources agrees to use reasonable
efforts to minimize the impact thereof on the operations of such Partnership
Entities. In no event shall the obligation of the Partnership Entities to
cooperate with Plains Resources as set forth in the immediately preceding
sentence be construed as imposing upon the Partnership Entities an obligation to
hire and pay for counsel in connection with the defense of any claims covered by
the indemnification set forth in this Article III; provided, however, that the
Partnership Entities may, at their own option, cost and expense, hire and pay
for counsel in connection with any such defense. Plains Resources agrees to keep
any such counsel hired by the Partnership Entities reasonably informed as to the
status of any such defense, but Plains Resources shall have the right to retain
sole control over such defense.
(d) In determining the amount of any loss, liability or expense
for which any of the Partnership Entities are entitled to indemnification under
this Agreement, the gross amount thereof will be reduced by any insurance
proceeds realized or to be realized by the Partnership
-8-
Entities, and such correlative insurance benefit shall be net of any insurance
premium that becomes due as a result of such claim.
