Borrower will take all reasonable steps necessary to ensure that no hazardous substances or solid wastes will be disposed of or otherwise released on or to any of the property owned by Borrower in violation of any Applicable Environmental Law. Borrower will keep all of its property in all respects free of any hazardous substance or solid waste (other than hazardous substances and solid wastes normally used or generated in the ordinary course of operation of Borrower’s facilities and that are properly stored, maintained and disposed of in accordance with Applicable Environmental Laws) and will remove the same (or if removal is prohibited by law, take, at its sole expense, whatever actions are required by law) in accordance with Applicable Environmental Laws. Upon Lender’s request, at any time and from time to time during the term of this Agreement (but no more often than once per calendar year in the absence of the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default), Borrower will provide to Lender, at Borrower’s sole expense, an inspection or audit, to be conducted by an engineering or consulting firm approved by Lender, of the properties owned or operated by Borrower indicating the compliance by Borrower in all material respects with all Applicable Environmental Laws.

(q) Registration Rights. If at any time prior to payment in full of the Debt Borrower grants registration rights covering any of the stock of Borrower to any other equity investor in Borrower, then Borrower agrees to grant similar registration rights to Lender.

(r) Insurance.  On or prior to March 31, 2010, Borrower shall deliver to Lender certificates from Borrower’s insurance broker setting forth the insurance maintained by Borrower, stating that such insurance is in full force and effect, and naming Lender as an additional insured.

Section 6.2   Negative Covenants

. Borrower warrants, covenants and agrees that until the full and final payment of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement, unless Lender has previously agreed otherwise in writing:

(a) Limitation on Liens. Borrower will not create, assume or permit to exist any mortgage, deed of trust, pledge, encumbrance, lien or charge of any kind (including any security interest in or vendor’s lien on property purchased under conditional sales or other title retention agreements and including any lease intended as security or in the nature of a title retention agreement) upon any of Borrower’s properties or assets, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, except: (i) Liens at any time existing in favor of Lender; and (ii) statutory Liens for taxes, statutory or contractual mechanics’ and materialmen’s Liens incurred in the ordinary course of business, and other similar Liens incurred in the ordinary course of business; provided that such Liens secure only Debt which is not delinquent or which is being contested as provided in Section 6.1(h).

(b) Additional Debt. Borrower will not create, incur, assume or permit to exist Debt of Borrower except (i) the Loan, and (ii) Debt described in Section 6.1(i).

(c) Limitation on Sales of Collateral. Borrower will not sell, transfer, lease, exchange, alienate or dispose of any of the Collateral except as follows (and the following exceptions shall be subject to any limitations contained in the Security Documents) (i) oilfield equipment, service and supply assets sold in the ordinary course of business and (ii) inventory (including oil and gas sold as produced) which is sold in the ordinary course of business.

-12-

(d) Limitation on Credit Extensions. Borrower will not extend credit, make advances or make loans.

(e) Fiscal Year. Borrower will not change its fiscal year.

(f) Amendment of Contracts. Borrower will not amend or permit any amendment to (to the extent that Borrower has the power to prevent such amendment) any contract which could reasonably be foreseen to release, qualify, limit, make contingent or otherwise have any material adverse effect upon, the rights and benefits of Lender under or acquired pursuant to any of the Security Documents.

(g) Reorganizations; Combinations; Change of Control. Borrower will not change its name or the nature of its business, reorganize, liquidate, dissolve, enter into any merger or other combination, or permit to occur any change in control of Borrower from that in existence on the date hereof.

(h) Hedging Transactions. Without Lender’s prior written consent, Borrower will not at any time enter into or be or become a party to any one or more hedging transactions with respect to its oil and gas production.  If Borrower enters into a hedging transaction with Lender’s prior written consent, and at any time prior to the earlier of the  Maturity Date or the full and final payment of the Obligations, Borrower is thereafter required to make a margin call payment in connection with such hedging transaction, Borrower shall have the right, upon reasonable prior notice to Lender, to request an advance on the Loan in the amount of the required margin call payment, and Lender shall make such advance, subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth below.  Any such advance made by Lender shall increase the principal amount outstanding on the Loan, and shall bear interest at the rate provided in Section 2.1(d).  Lender’s obligation to make an advance to Borrower pursuant to this Section 6.2(h) shall be subject to the following conditions:

(1) No Default or Event of Default shall have occurred under any Loan Documents;

(2) The maximum amount of advances made by Lender under this Section 6.2(h) shall not exceed $3,000,000 in the aggregate; and

(3) If the amount of any such advance would cause the total amount outstanding under the Loan to exceed $6,000,000, execution of an amendment to the Note to reflect the new outstanding balance.

Lender and Borrower agree to promptly enter into such amendments of the Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate to properly document the obligations under this Section 6.2(h).

(i) Capital Expenditures; Development Drilling. Borrower will not make (whether in one transaction or a series of transactions) capital expenditures, including expenses for development drilling, for the period from the Effective Date until the repayment in full of the Obligations; provided however, Borrower shall be permitted to make capital expenditures necessary to retain the Earned Properties and those capital expenditures permitted pursuant to that certain Credit Agreement, dated effective January 29, 2010, between Borrower and Lender (the “January Credit Agreement”).

(2) suffers the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator or similar official for a substantial part of its assets or for any part of the Oil and Gas Properties in a proceeding brought against or initiated by it, and such appointment is neither made ineffective nor discharged within 60 days after the making thereof, or such appointment is consented to, requested by, or acquiesced to by it; or

(3) commences a voluntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law now or hereafter in effect, including the federal Bankruptcy Code, as from time to time amended; or applies for or consents to the entry of an order for relief in an involuntary case under any such law or to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator or other similar official of any substantial part of its assets or any part of the Oil and Gas Properties; or makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or fails generally to pay (or admits in writing its inability to pay) its debts as such debts become due; or takes action in furtherance of any of the foregoing; or

(5) suffers the entry of an order issued by any court or tribunal taking, seizing or apprehending all or any substantial part of its property or any part of the Oil and Gas Properties and bringing the same into the custody of such court or tribunal, and such order is not stayed or released within 30 days after the entry thereof; or

(h) Any default, including the expiration of any applicable period of grace, occurs with respect to any other indebtedness owed by Borrower to any Person.

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in subsection (f)(1), (f)(2) or (f)(3) of this Section 7.1, all of the Obligations shall thereupon be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest, declaration or notice of acceleration or intention to accelerate, or any other notice or declaration of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower. During the continuance of any other Event of Default, Lender at any time and from time to time (unless all Events of Default have theretofore been remedied) may declare any or all of the Obligations immediately due and payable, and all such Obligations shall thereupon be immediately due and payable.

Section 7.2   Remedies. If any Event of Default shall occur, Lender may protect and enforce its rights under the Loan Documents by any appropriate proceedings, including proceedings for specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained in any Loan Document, and Lender may enforce the payment of any Obligations due or enforce any other legal or equitable right. All rights, remedies and powers conferred upon Lender under the Loan Documents shall be deemed cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights, remedies or powers available under the Loan Documents or at law or in equity.

-15-

Section 7.3   Indemnity. Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Lender and its successors and assigns and the respective agents, affiliates, officers, directors and employees of Lender and its successors and assigns from and against any and all claims, losses, demands, actions, causes of action and liabilities whatsoever (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and costs and expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation or claim, action, suit, proceeding or demand of any kind or character) arising out of or resulting from: (a) the Loan Documents (including the enforcement thereof), except to the extent such claims, losses and liabilities are proximately caused by Lender’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, (b) any violation of any Applicable Environmental Law, (c) any act, omission, event or circumstance resulting from or in connection with the ownership, construction, occupancy, operation, use and/or maintenance of the Oil and Gas Properties, regardless of whether the act, omission, event or circumstance constituted a violation of any Applicable Environmental Law at the time of its existence of occurrence, and (d) any and all claims or proceedings (whether brought by a private party or governmental agencies) for bodily injury, property damage, abatement or remediation, environmental damage or impairment or any other injury or damage resulting from or relating to any hazardous or toxic substance, solid waste or contaminated material located upon or migrating into, from or through any of the Oil and Gas Properties (whether or not the release of such materials was caused by Borrower, a tenant or subtenant or a prior owner, tenant or subtenant on the Oil and Gas Properties and whether or not the alleged liability is attributable to the handling, storage, generation, transportation, removal or disposal of such substance, waste or material or the mere presence of such substance, waste or material on the Oil and Gas Properties), for which Lender may have liability due to the making of the Loan, the granting of the Security Documents, the exercise of Lender’s rights under the Loan Documents or Otherwise. WITHOUT LIMITATION, IT IS THE INTENTION OF BORROWER, AND BORROWER AGREES, THAT THE FOREGOING INDEMNITIES SHALL APPLY TO EACH INDEMNIFIED PARTY WITH RESPECT TO CLAIMS, DEMANDS, LIABILITIES, LOSSES, DAMAGES, CAUSES OF ACTION, JUDGMENTS, PENALTIES, COSTS AND EXPENSES (INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES) 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 arises out of the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such particular indemnified party. The foregoing indemnities shall not terminate upon the Maturity Date or upon the release, foreclosure or other termination of the Security Documents, but will survive the Maturity Date, foreclosure of the Security Documents or conveyances in lieu of foreclosure, and the repayment of the Loan and the discharge and release of the Security Documents and the other documents evidencing and/or securing the Loan.

VIII. MISCELLANEOUS

Section 8.1   Waiver and Amendment. No failure or delay by Lender in exercising any right, power or remedy which it may have under any of the Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof or of any other right, power or remedy, nor shall any single or partial exercise by Lender of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or remedy. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document and no consent to any departure therefrom shall ever be effective unless it is in writing and signed by Lender, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instances and for the purposes for which given and to the extent specified in such writing. No notice to or demand on any Obligated Person shall in any case of itself entitle any Obligated Person to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. No modification or amendment of or supplement to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be valid or effective unless the same is in writing and signed by the party against whom it is sought to be enforced.

-16-

Section 8.2   Survival of Agreements; Cumulative Nature. All of the Obligated Persons’ various representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in the Loan Documents shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the performance hereof and thereof, including the making or granting of the Loan and the delivery of the Note and the other Loan Documents, and shall further survive until all of the Obligations are paid in full to Lender and all of Lender’s obligations to Borrower are terminated. All statements and agreements contained in any certificate or other instrument delivered to Lender under any Loan Document shall be deemed representations and warranties by Borrower to Lender and/or agreements and covenants of Borrower under this Agreement. The representations, warranties, and covenants made by the Obligated Persons in the Loan Documents, and the rights, powers, and privileges granted to Lender in the Loan Documents, are cumulative, and no Loan Document shall be construed in the context of another to diminish, nullify, or otherwise reduce the benefit to Lender of any such representation, warranty, covenant, right, power or privilege. In particular and without limitation, no exception set out in this Agreement to any representation, warranty or covenant herein contained shall apply to any similar representation, warranty or covenant contained in any other Loan Document, and each such similar representation, warranty or covenant shall be subject only to those exceptions which are expressly made applicable to it by the terms of the various Loan Documents.

Section 8.3   Notices. All notices, requests, consents, demands and other communications required or permitted under any Loan Document shall be in writing and, unless otherwise specifically provided in such Loan Document, shall be deemed sufficiently given or furnished if delivered by personal delivery, by expedited delivery service with proof of delivery, or by registered or certified United States mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, at the addresses specified on the signature pages hereto (unless changed by similar notice in writing given by the particular Person whose address is to be changed). Any such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been given upon receipt.

Section 8.4   Parties in Interest. All grants, covenants and agreements contained in the Loan Documents shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties thereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that no Obligated Person may assign or transfer any of its rights or delegate any of its duties or obligations under any Loan Document without the prior consent of Lender.

Section 8.5   Governing Law. The Loan Documents shall be deemed contracts and instruments made under the laws of the State of Colorado and shall be construed and enforced in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Colorado and the laws of the United States of America, except (a) to the extent that the law of another jurisdiction is expressly elected in a Loan Document, and (b) with respect to specific Liens, or the perfection thereof, evidenced by Security Documents covering real or personal property which by the laws applicable thereto are required to be construed under the laws of another jurisdiction. Borrower hereby irrevocably submits itself to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts of the State of Colorado.

Section 8.6   Limitation on Interest. Lender and the Obligated Persons intend to contract in strict compliance with applicable usury law from time to time in effect. In furtherance thereof such persons stipulate and agree that none of the terms and provisions contained in the Loan Documents shall ever be construed to create a contract to pay, for the use, forbearance or detention of money, interest in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted to be charged by applicable law from time to time in effect. Neither any Obligated Person nor any present or future guarantors, endorsers, or other Persons hereafter becoming liable for payment of any Obligation shall ever be liable for unearned interest thereon or shall ever be required to pay interest thereon in excess of the maximum amount that may be lawfully charged under applicable law from time to time in effect, and the provisions of this section shall control over all other provisions of the Loan Documents which may be in conflict or apparent conflict herewith. Lender expressly disavows any intention to charge or collect excessive unearned interest or finance charges in the event the maturity of any Obligation is accelerated. If: (a) the maturity of any Obligation is accelerated for any reason, (b) any Obligation is prepaid and as a result any amounts held to constitute interest are determined to be in excess of the legal maximum, or (c) Lender or any other holder of any or all of the Obligations shall otherwise collect moneys which are determined to constitute interest which would otherwise increase the interest on any or all of the Obligations to an amount in excess of that permitted to be charged by applicable law then in effect, then all such sums determined to constitute interest in excess of such legal limit shall, without penalty, be promptly applied to reduce the then outstanding principal of the related Obligations or, at Lender’s option, promptly returned to Borrower or the other payor thereof upon such determination.

-17-

Section 8.7   Severability. If any term or provision of any Loan Document shall be determined to be illegal or unenforceable all other terms and provisions of the Loan Documents shall nevertheless remain effective and shall be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

Section 8.8   Counterparts. This Agreement may be separately executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to constitute one and the same Agreement. Delivery of this Agreement and the other documents to be delivered in connection herewith by any party may be effected, without limitation, by faxing a signed counterpart of any such document to Lender (any party that effects delivery in such manner hereby agreeing to transmit promptly to each of the other parties an actual signed counterpart).

Section 8.9   Conflicts. To the extent of any irreconcilable conflicts between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of any of the Loan Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail.

Section 8.10   Entire Agreement

. This Agreement, the Note, the Security Documents and the other Loan Documents from time to time executed in connection herewith state the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

Section 8.11   Consent and Waiver under January Credit Agreement

Section 8.12. Lender hereby consents to the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and waives Sections 6.2(a), 6.2(b) and 6.2(i) of the January Credit Agreement, solely to the extent necessary to permit Borrower to complete the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement. This consent and waiver shall be effective only in this specific instance and for the specific purpose stated above, and this consent and waiver shall not entitle the Borrower to any other or further consent or waiver in any similar or other circumstances.

Section 8.13   Waiver Of Jury Trial. EACH OF BORROWER AND LENDER HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION: (A) ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, OR (B) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM IN RESPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT. EACH OF BORROWER AND LENDER HEREBY AGREES THAT THE OTHER MAY FILE A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY.
