any
action to be taken by its beneficial owners) and Lenders shall pay such refund
to Borrowers within 30 days after receipt thereof.

shall immediately (a) notify Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase
from the other Lenders such participations in the Loans made by them as shall
be
necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment according
to the terms hereof; provided,
however,
that if
all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the
purchasing Lender, such purchase shall, to that extent, be rescinded and each
other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid
therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender’s ratable share
(according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender’s required
repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender)
of
any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect
of the total amount so recovered. Borrowers agree that any Lender so purchasing
a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by
law,
exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect
to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of
Borrowers in the amount of such participation. Administrative Agent will keep

Schedule

and
all rentals, royalties, and other amounts due and payable in respect thereof
have been duly paid, except where failure to so pay any such amounts could
not

Deficiencies, each Loan Party’s share of (a) the costs for each Hydrocarbon
Interest is not greater than the decimal fraction set forth in Schedule

attached

funds in respect of any well drilled in respect of each Hydrocarbon Interest
described in Schedule

attached
hereto being presently held in suspense, other than any such funds being held

suspense pending delivery of appropriate division orders. Each producing well
in
respect of each Hydrocarbon Interest described in Schedule

been drilled, bottomed, completed, and operated in compliance, in all material
respects, with all Requirements of Law and no such well which is currently
producing Hydrocarbons is subject to any penalty in production by reason of
such
well having produced in excess of its allowable production.
· Operator.
To
the
extent Westside Operating is the Operator of the xxxxx located on the Oil and
Gas Properties, Westside Operating has obtained and is in compliance with all
Requirements of Law, except where failure to comply is not reasonably expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect.
· Intellectual
Property; Licenses.
Each
Loan
Party owns, or possesses the right to use, all of the trademarks, service marks,
trade names, copyrights, patents, patent rights, franchises, licenses and other
intellectual property rights (collectively, “IP
Rights”)
that
are reasonably necessary for the operation of their respective businesses.
To
the knowledge of the Loan Parties, none of their respective material IP Rights,
slogans or advertising materials, products, processes, methods, substances,
parts or other materials now employed by any Loan Party infringe in any material
respect on any IP Rights or other material rights held by any other Person.
No
written claim or litigation regarding any of the foregoing is pending or, to
the
knowledge of the Loan Parties, threatened, which, either individually or in
the
aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.
· Taxes.
Parent
has filed all Federal tax returns and reports required to be filed, or if not
filed, for which an extension has been granted therefor, and has paid all
Federal taxes, assessments, fees and other governmental charges levied or
imposed upon its or its properties, income or assets otherwise due and payable,
except those which are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings
diligently conducted and for which adequate reserves have been provided in
accordance with GAAP. Parent has filed all material state and other non-Federal
tax returns and reports required to be filed, and has paid all state and other
non-Federal taxes, assessments, fees and other governmental charges levied
or
imposed upon it or its properties, income or assets otherwise due and payable.
To the knowledge of Parent, there is no proposed tax assessment against it
that
would, if made, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect
· Environmental
Matters.
Each
Loan
Party conducts in the ordinary course of business a review of the effect of
existing Environmental Laws, Environmental Claims and Environmental Complaints,
if any, on its business, operations and properties, and such properties which
it
is acquiring or planning to acquire. No real or personal property owned or
leased by any Loan Party and no operations conducted thereon, and no operations
of any prior owner, lessee or operator of any such properties, is or has been
in
violation of any Environmental Law other than violations which neither
individually nor in the aggregate will have or could be reasonably expected
to
have a Material Adverse Effect, nor is any such property or operation the
subject of any existing, pending or, to Borrowers’ knowledge, threatened
Environmental Complaint which could, individually or in the aggregate, have
or
be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. All notices, permits,
licenses, and similar authorizations, if any, required to be obtained or filed
in connection with the ownership or operation of any and all real and personal
property owned, leased or operated by any Loan Party, including notices,
licenses, permits and authorizations required in connection with any past or
present treatment, storage, disposal, or release of Hazardous Substances into
the environment, have been duly obtained or filed except to the extent the
failure to obtain or file such notices, licenses, permits and authorizations
would not have or would not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. All Hazardous Substances, if any, generated at any and all real and
personal property owned, leased or operated by any Loan Party have been
transported, treated, and disposed of only by carriers maintaining valid permits
under all Environmental Laws, and, to such Loan Party’s actual knowledge, the
same is true as to periods of time prior to such Loan Party’s ownership, lease
or operation. There have been no Hazardous Discharges by any Loan Party which
were not in compliance with Environmental Laws other than Hazardous Discharges
which would not, individually or in the aggregate, have or be reasonably
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and, to such Loan Party’s actual
knowledge, the same is true as to any Hazardous Discharge on any real and
personal property owned, leased or operated by any Loan Party during periods
of
time prior to such Loan Party’s ownership, lease or operation of such property.
No Loan Party has actual knowledge of any contingent liability in connection
with any Hazardous Discharges which could have or be reasonably expected to
have
a Material Adverse Effect.

Entities.
No
Loan
Party is an “Investment Company” within the meaning of the Investment Company
Act of 1940. No Borrower is subject to regulation under the Federal Power Act,
the Interstate Commerce Act, any state public utilities code, or any other

Indebtedness.
· No

similar businesses and owning similar properties in localities where such Loan
Party’s properties are located.

as of the date such representations and warranties are made or deemed made,

as expressly set forth herein, Administrative Agent shall not have or be deemed
to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants,
functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read
into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against
Administrative Agent.
· Delegation
of Duties.
Administrative
Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan
Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be
entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties.
Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct
of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects with reasonable
care.
· Liability
of Administrative Agent.
Neither
the Administrative Agent nor any of the Agent-Related Persons shall (a) be
liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or
in
connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful
misconduct), or (b) be responsible in any manner to any Lender or any Affiliate
of any Lender for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by
any
Loan Party or any Affiliate of a Loan Party, or any officer thereof, contained
in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report,
statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by
Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other
Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness (other than the Administrative
Agent’s or such Agent-Related Person’s own due execution and delivery),
genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, or for any failure of any Loan Party or any other party to any Loan
Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. Neither the
Administrative Agent nor any Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation
to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance
of
any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any
other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any
Loan
Party or any Affiliate of any Loan Party.
· Reliance
by Administrative Agent.
(a) Administrative
Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon
any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter,
telegram, electronic mail, facsimile, telex or telephone message, statement
or
other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and
to
have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice
and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts
selected by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be fully justified
in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other
Loan
Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of Lenders
as
it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified
to
its satisfaction by Lenders and their Affiliates against any and all liability
and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to
take any such action. Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected
in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other
Loan
Document in accordance with a request or consent of Lenders and such request
and
any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all
Lenders.
(b) For
purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 4.01,
each
Lender that has made available to Borrowers its Pro Rata Share of the Maximum
Loan Amount shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to
be
satisfied with, each document or other matter either sent by Administrative
Agent to such Lender for consent, approval, acceptance or satisfaction, or
required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or
satisfactory to Lender as a condition precedent to such Loans, as
applicable.
· Notice
of Default.
Administrative
Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of
any
Default or Event of Default, unless Administrative Agent shall have received
written notice from a Lender or Borrowers referring to this Agreement,
describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is
a
“notice
of default”.
Administrative Agent will notify Lenders of its receipt of any such notice.
Subject to Subsection
9.04(a),
Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or
Event of Default as may be requested by any Lender; provided,
however,
that
unless and until Administrative Agent has received any such request,
Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action,
or
refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of
Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of
Lenders.
· Credit
Decisions.
Each
Lender acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of the
Agent-Related Persons has made any representation or warranty to it, and that
no
act by Administrative Agent or any Agent-Related Person hereafter taken,
including any review of the affairs of Borrowers, shall be deemed to constitute
any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent or any Agent-Related
Person to any Lender. Each Lender represents to Administrative Agent that it
has, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent or any
Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has
deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the
business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and
creditworthiness of Borrowers, and all applicable bank regulatory laws relating
to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter
into
this Agreement and to extend credit to Borrowers hereunder. Each Lender also
represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon Administrative
Agent or any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information
as
it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis,
appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement
and
the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary
to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial
and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower. Except for notices,
reports and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to Lenders
by Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or
responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information
concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other
condition or creditworthiness of Borrowers which may come into the possession
of
Administrative Agent or any of the Agent-Related Persons.
· Indemnification.
Whether
or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, Lenders and any
Affiliates of Lenders shall indemnify upon demand Administrative Agent and
Agent-Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrowers
and without limiting the obligation of Borrowers to do so), pro rata according
to each respective Lender’s Pro Rata Share, Administrative Agent and each
Agent-Related Person from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities
INCLUDING SUCH INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES AS MAY ARISE OR BE CAUSED BY THE
NEGLIGENCE, SOLE, JOINT, CONCURRENT, COMPARATIVE OR OTHERWISE OF ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT OR SUCH AGENT-RELATED PERSONS; provided, however, that no Lender shall
be
liable for the payment to Administrative Agent or any Agent-Related Persons
of
any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities to the extent the same arise from
(i) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Administrative Agent or any
Agent-Related Person or (ii) a claim or action asserted by Administrative Agent
or one or more Agent-Related Persons. Without limitation of the foregoing,
each
Lender shall reimburse Administrative Agent upon demand for its ratable share
of
any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including attorney costs) incurred by
Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery,
administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through
negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect
of
rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document,
or
any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that
Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of
Borrowers. The undertaking in this Section
9.07
shall
survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder and the resignation or
replacement of Administrative Agent.
· Administrative
Agent in Individual Capacity.
Spindrift
Partners, L.P. is Administrative Agent hereunder solely for administrative
purposes and has no commitment, other than in its capacity as Lender hereunder,
to lend to Borrowers under the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the
above, Administrative Agent, in its individual capacity, may from time to time
engage in any kind of activity with Borrowers or any Affiliate thereof as though
Administrative Agent were not Administrative Agent hereunder and without notice
to or consent of Lenders. Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities,
Administrative Agent or its Affiliates may receive information regarding
Borrowers (including information that may be subject to confidentiality
obligations in favor of Borrowers) and acknowledge that Administrative Agent
and
the Agent-Related Persons shall be under no obligation to provide such
information to them. With respect to its Loans, Administrative Agent, in its
individual capacity as Lender, shall have the same rights and powers under
this
Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not
Administrative Agent.
· Successor
Administrative Agent.
Administrative
Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon thirty (30) days notice to
Lenders. If Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement, Lenders, with
the
consent of the Borrowers, shall appoint from among Lenders a successor
administrative agent in the same capacity as the retiring Administrative Agent
for Lenders. If no successor administrative agent is appointed prior to the
effective date of the resignation of such retiring Administrative Agent, such
retiring Administrative Agent may appoint, with the consent of the Borrowers
and
after consulting with Lenders, a successor administrative agent from among
Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor administrative
agent hereunder, such successor administrative agent shall succeed to all the
rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the term
“Administrative
Agent”
shall
mean such successor administrative agent and the retiring Administrative Agent’s
appointment, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated.
After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as
Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article
IX
and
Sections
10.05
and
10.06
shall
inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while
it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no successor administrative
agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent in the same capacity
as
the retiring Administrative Agent by the date which is 30 days following a
retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring
Administrative Agent shall either withdraw its resignation or may appoint as
a
successor administrative agent a commercial bank organized under the laws of
the
United States of America or of any State thereof.

at
such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice
to
Borrowers, Administrative Agent and Lenders.

be

(e) Any
agreement of Administrative Agent or any Lender herein to receive certain
notices by telephone, electronic mail, or facsimile is solely for the
convenience and at the request of the Loan Parties. Administrative Agent and
Lenders shall be entitled to rely on the authority of any Person purporting
to
be a Person authorized by such Loan Party to give such notice and neither
Administrative Agent nor Lenders shall have any liability to any Loan Party
on
account of any action taken or not taken by Administrative Agent or any Lender
in reliance upon such telephonic or facsimile notice. The obligation of
Borrowers to repay the Loans shall not be affected in any way or to any extent
by any failure by Administrative Agent or any Lender to receive written
confirmation of any telephonic or facsimile notice or the receipt by
Administrative Agent or such Lender of a confirmation which is at variance
with
the terms understood by Administrative Agent or such Lender to be contained
in
the telephonic or facsimile notice.
· No
Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.
No
failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of Administrative
Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, shall
operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any
right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.
The rights, remedies and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not
exclusive of any rights, remedies and privileges provided by law.
· Survival
of Representations and Warranties.
All
representations and warranties made in this Agreement and in any other Loan
Document or other documents delivered pursuant hereto or thereto in connection
herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and
thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon
by
Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made
by
Administrative Agent or Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that
Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any
Default at the time of Closing, and shall continue in full force and effect
as
long as any Obligation shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied.
· Indemnity.
Whether
or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Loan Parties,
jointly and severally, shall indemnify and hold Administrative Agent, Lenders,
and each of their Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, counsel, agents
and attorneys-in-fact (each, an “Indemnified
Person”)
harmless from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, charges, expenses and disbursements
(including attorneys’ fees and expenses) of any kind or nature whatsoever which
may at any time (including at any time following repayment of the Loans) be
imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnified Person in any way
relating to or arising out of this Agreement and/or any document contemplated
by
or referred to herein (including any consents, amendments, waivers or other
modifications to this Agreement and/or such other documents), or the
transactions contemplated hereby, or any action taken or omitted by any
Indemnified Person under or in connection with any of the foregoing, including
with respect to any investigation, litigation or proceeding (including any
Insolvency Proceeding or appellate proceeding) related to or arising out of
this
Agreement or the Loans or the use of the proceeds thereof, whether or not any
Indemnified Person is a party thereto (all the foregoing, collectively, the
“Indemnified
Liabilities”),
provided, that no Loan Party shall have any obligation hereunder to any
Indemnified Person with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent same
arise from the gross negligence, in whole or in part, including without
limitations, those claims which result from the sole, joint, concurrent or
comparative gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person
as
determined by a final judgment rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction,
or
that arise solely by reason of claims among Indemnified Persons. The agreements
in this Section shall survive payment of all other Obligations.
· Environmental
Indemnification.
In
addition to the indemnifications hereunder and under any other Loan Documents,
the Loan Parties, jointly and severally, shall indemnify, protect and hold
each
Indemnified Person harmless from and against any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims,
proceedings, costs, expenses (including, without limitation, all attorneys’ fees
and legal expenses whether or not suit is brought) and disbursements of any
kind
or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by, or
asserted against such Indemnified Person, with respect to or as a direct or
indirect result of the violation by any Loan Party of any Environmental Law;
or
with respect to or as a direct or indirect result of any Loan Party's use,
generation, manufacture, production, storage, release, threatened release,
discharge, disposal or presence in connection with the Mortgaged Properties
of a
hazardous substance including, without limitation, (a) all damages of any such
use, generation, manufacture, production, storage, release, threatened release,
discharge, disposal or presence, or (b) the costs of any reasonably required
or
necessary environmental investigation, monitoring, repair, cleanup or
detoxification and the preparation and implementation of any closure, remedial
or other plans (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified
Environmental Liabilities”).
Each
Loan Party agrees to indemnify and hold each Indemnified Person harmless as
provided in this Section
10.06,
provided,
that no Loan Party shall have any obligation hereunder to any Indemnified Person
with respect to Indemnified Environmental Liabilities to the extent same arise
from the gross negligence, in whole or in part, including without limitations,
those claims which result from the sole, joint, concurrent or comparative gross
negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person as determined by
a
final judgment rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction.
The
provisions of and undertakings and indemnification set forth in this
Section
10.06
shall
survive (x) the satisfaction and payment of the Obligations and termination
of
this Agreement, and (y) the release of any Liens securing the Obligations or
the
extinguishment of such Liens by foreclosure or action in lieu thereof. It shall
not be a defense to the indemnification obligations set forth in this
Section
10.06
that the
act, omission, event or circumstance did not constitute a violation of any
Environmental Law at the time of its existence or occurrence.
· Successors
and Assigns
.
(a) The
provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit
of
the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, except that
no
Loan Party may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this
Agreement without the prior written consent of Majority Lenders. Any Lender
may
at any time assign or sell participations in all, or any ratable part of, the
Loans and the other rights and obligations of such Lender hereunder to one
or
more of its Affiliates and/or to one or more Related Funds. No Lender may assign
or sell participations in all, or any ratable part of, the Loans and the other
rights and obligations of such Lender hereunder to any party other than its
Affiliates or Related Funds without the written consent of Borrowers.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Lenders shall at
all
times be entitled to transfer and/or assign their respective Overriding Royalty
Interests and their rights or obligations under their respective ORRI
Conveyance, provided, however, that Lenders shall be responsible for any costs,
expenses or fees attributable to any such transfer and/or assignment of their
respective Overriding Royalty Interests and their rights or obligations under
their respective ORRI Conveyance.
(b)
In
the
case of a sale of a participation as permitted by Section
10.07(a)
to one
or more Persons (each a “Participant”),
the
selling Lender remains a “Lender” under the Loan Documents, the Participant does
not become a “Lender” under the Loan Documents, and the selling Lender’s
obligations under the Loan Documents remain unchanged. The selling Lender
remains solely responsible for the performance of its obligations and remains
the holder of its share of the outstanding Loans for all purposes under the
Loan
Documents. Borrowers and Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely
and
directly with the selling Lender in connection with that Lender’s rights and
obligations under the Loan Documents, and each Lender must retain the sole
right
and responsibility to enforce due Obligations of Borrowers and/or any other
Loan
Party. Participants have no rights under the Loan Documents except certain
voting rights as provided below. Subject to the following, each Lender may
obtain (on behalf of its Participants) the benefits of Sections
2.09 and
2.10
with
respect to all participations in its part of the Obligations outstanding from
time to time so long as Borrowers are not obligated to pay any amount in excess
of the amount that would be due to that Lender under Sections
2.09 and
2.10 calculated
as though no participations have been made. No Lender may sell any participating
interest under which the Participant has any rights to approve any amendment,
modification, or waiver of any Loan Document except in respect of any such
amendment, modification or waiver described in Section
10.01(a)
or
10.01(b).
To the
extent permitted by law, each Participant shall also be entitled to the benefits
of Section
3.04
as
though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to
Section
2.11
as
though it were a Lender.
(c) Any
assignment made by a Lender pursuant to Section
10.07(a)
shall be
evidenced by an assignment and assumption agreement in form and substance
acceptable to Administrative Agent (which shall receive a copy thereof), and,
except in the case of an assignment of the entire amount of the assignor
Lender’s Loan at the time owing to it, the amount of the Loan so assigned shall
not be less than $100,000 unless each of Administrative Agent and, so long
as no
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, each Borrower otherwise
consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). The
“effective date” in each such assignment and assumption agreement must (unless a
shorter period is agreeable to Borrowers and Administrative Agent) be at least
five (5) Business Days after it is executed and delivered by the assignor Lender
and the assignee to Administrative Agent and Borrowers for acceptance. Once
that
assignment and assumption agreement is accepted by Administrative Agent and
Borrowers, then, from and after the “effective date” stated in it
(1) assignee automatically becomes a party to this Agreement and, to the
extent provided in that assignment and assumption agreement, has the rights
and
obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, (2) the assignor Lender,
to the extent provided in that assignment and assumption agreement, is released
from its obligations under this Agreement and, in the case of an assignment
and
assumption agreement covering all of the remaining portion of the assignor
Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, that Lender ceases to
be a party to the Loan Documents, (3) Borrowers shall execute and deliver
to the assignor Lender and the assignee the appropriate Notes in accordance
with
this Agreement following the transfer, and upon delivery of such Notes, the
assignor Lender shall return to Borrowers all Notes previously delivered to
that
Lender under this Agreement, and (4) Appendix I
is
automatically deemed to be amended to reflect the name, address, fax number,
and
Pro Rata Share of the assignee, and Administrative Agent shall prepare and
circulate to Borrowers and Lenders an amended Appendix I
reflecting those changes.
· Interest.
(a) It
is the
intention of the parties hereto to comply with applicable usury laws;
accordingly, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement,
the Notes or in any of the other Loan Documents securing the payment hereof
or
otherwise relating hereto, in no event shall this Agreement, the Notes or such
other Loan Documents require the payment or permit the payment, taking,
reserving, receiving, collection, or charging of any sums constituting interest
under applicable laws, if any, 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 Loans evidenced by the Notes or
in
any of the Loans Documents securing the payment thereof or otherwise relating
thereto, or in any communication by Administrative Agent, Lenders or any other
person to a Borrower or any other person, or in the event all or part of the
principal or interest thereof shall be prepaid or accelerated, so that under
any
of such circumstances or under any other circumstance whatsoever the amount
of
interest contracted for, charged, taken, reserved, or received on the amount
of
principal actually outstanding from time to time under the Notes 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 Borrowers nor any other person or entity now
or
hereafter liable for the payment and performance of the Obligations shall be
obligated to pay the amount of such interest to the extent such interest is
in
excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted by applicable usury laws,
(iii) any such excess which is or has been received notwithstanding this
paragraph shall be credited against the then unpaid principal balance of the
Notes or, if the Notes have been or would be paid in full, refunded to
Borrowers, and (iv) the provisions of this Agreement, the Notes and the other
Loan Documents securing the payment hereof and otherwise relating hereto, and
any communication to Borrower, shall immediately be deemed reformed and such
excess interest reduced, without the necessity of executing any other document,
to the Highest 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 the interest contracted for, charged,
taken, reserved, or received in connection with the Notes or this Agreement
which are made for the purpose of determining whether such rate exceeds the
Highest Lawful Rate shall be made to the extent permitted by applicable laws
by
amortizing, prorating, allocating and spreading during the period of the full
term of the Loans, including all prior and subsequent renewals and extensions,
all interest at any time contracted for, charged, taken, reserved, or received.
The terms of this paragraph shall be deemed to be incorporated in every document
and communication relating to the Notes, the Loans or any other Loan
Document.
(b) If
the
Contract Rate exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, then the Contract Rate shall
be
limited to the Highest Lawful Rate, but any subsequent reductions in the
Contract Rate shall not reduce the interest rate thereon below the Highest
Lawful Rate until the total amount of accrued interest equals the amount of
interest that would have accrued if Contract Rate had always been in effect.
If
at the Termination Date the total interest paid or accrued is less than the
interest that would have accrued if the Contract Rate had always been in effect,
then, at that time and to the extent permitted by law, Borrowers shall pay
an
amount equal to the difference between: (i) the lesser of the amount of
interest that would have accrued if the Contract Rates had always been in effect
and the amount of interest that would have accrued if the Highest Lawful Rate
had always been in effect; and (ii) the amount of interest actually paid or
accrued on the Notes.
(c) To
the
extent that the interest rate laws of the State of Texas are applicable to
the
Loans, the applicable interest rate ceiling is the indicated (weekly) ceiling
from time to time in effect under Texas Finance Code §303.001, as limited by
Texas Finance Code §303.009, and to the extent that this Agreement is deemed an
“open end account” as such term is defined in Texas Finance Code
§301.002(a)(14), Lenders retain the right to modify the interest rate in
accordance with applicable law.
· Counterparts
and Facsimile Signatures.
This
Agreement may be executed in any number of separate counterparts, each of which,
when so executed, shall be deemed an original, and all of said counterparts
taken together shall be deemed to constitute but one and the same instrument.
The Loan Documents may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile or “pdf”. The
effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to applicable
law, have the same force and effect as manually-signed originals and shall
be
binding on all Loan Parties; Administrative Agent and any Lender may also
require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a manually-signed
original thereof; provided, however, that the failure to request or deliver
the
same shall not limit the effectiveness of any facsimile or “pdf” document or
signature.
· Severability
.
The
illegality or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement or any
instrument or agreement required hereunder shall not in any way affect or impair
the legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement
or
any instrument or agreement required hereunder.
· Third
Party Beneficiaries
.
This
Agreement and the other Loan Documents are made and entered into for the sole
protection and legal benefit of the Loan Parties, Administrative Agent and
Lenders, and their permitted successors and assigns, and no other Person shall
be a direct or indirect legal beneficiary of, or have any direct or indirect
cause of action or claim in connection with, this Agreement or any of the other
Loan Documents.
· USA
Patriot Act Notice
.
Lenders
hereby notify the Loan Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the USA
Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001))
(the “Act”),
they
are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Loan
Parties, which information includes the name and address of the Loan Parties
and
other information that will allow Lenders to identify the Loan Parties in
accordance with the Act.
· Governing
Law
.
Except
as
expressly otherwise set forth in any Loan Document, this Agreement and the
other
Loan Documents shall be governed by, construed and interpreted in accordance
with, the laws of the State of New York, except to the extent that federal
laws
of the United States of America apply.
· Submission
to Jurisdiction
.
With
respect to any and all disputes arising hereunder, or under the Notes, the
Security Documents, the other Loan Documents, or any of the other instruments
and documents executed in connection herewith or therewith not settled, each
Loan Party, Administrative Agent and Lenders hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally:
(a) submits
for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this
Agreement, the Notes and any document to which it is a party, or for recognition
and enforcement of any judgment in respect of any thereof, to the non-exclusive
general jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York, the courts of
the
United States of America for the Southern District of New York, and appellate
courts from any thereof;
(b) consents
that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts, and waives
any
objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action
or
proceeding in any such court (except to the extent applicable rules of procedure
provide venue lies exclusively in another jurisdiction), or that such action
or
proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or
claim
the same;
(c) agrees
that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by
mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially
similar form and mail), postage prepaid, to it at its address specified in
Appendix
I
hereof;
(d) agrees
that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in
any
other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to xxx in any other
jurisdiction;
(e) agrees
that service upon it or its authorized agent shall, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, constitute valid and effective personal service upon it,
as
the case may be, and that the failure of any such authorized agent to give
any
notice of such service to it shall not impair or affect in any way the validity
of such service or any judgment rendered in any action or proceeding based
thereon; and
(f) waives,
to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection, including
any
objection to the laying of venue or based on the grounds of forum non conveniens,
which
it may now or hereafter have to the bringing of any action or proceeding in
such
jurisdiction in respect of this agreement or any document related
hereto.
· Waiver
Of Jury Trial
.
Each
Loan
Party waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, its rights
to a
trial by jury of any claim or cause of action based upon or arising out of
or
related to this Agreement, the Notes, the Security Documents, the other Loan
Documents, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, in any action,
proceeding or other litigation of any type brought by any of the parties against
any other party or any Indemnified Person, or assignee thereof, whether with
respect to contract claims, tort claims, or otherwise. Each Loan Party, to
the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law, agrees that any such claim or cause
of action shall be tried by a court trial without a jury. Without limiting
the
foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Loan Party
further agrees that its respective right to a trial by jury is waived by
operation of this Section as to any action, counterclaim or other proceeding
which seeks, in whole or in part, to challenge the validity or enforceability
of
this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any provision hereof or thereof.
This waiver shall apply to any subsequent amendments, renewals, supplements
or
modifications to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
· Amendment
and Restatement
.
The
parties hereto agree that as of Closing: (a) the Obligations (as defined in
this
Agreement) represents, among other things, the restatement, renewal, amendment,
extension, and modification of the “Obligations”
(as
defined in the Existing Credit Agreement); (b) this Agreement is intended to,
and does hereby, restate, renew, extend, amend, modify, supersede, and replace
the Existing Credit Agreement in its entirety; (c) the Notes executed pursuant
to the Existing Credit Agreement remain in full force and effect to evidence
the
Obligations; (d) the Security Documents executed pursuant to the Existing Credit
Agreement remain in full force and effect to secure the Obligations; (e) each
Guaranty executed pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement remains in full
force and effect to guaranty the Obligations; and (f) the entering into and
performance of their respective obligations under this Agreement (and any other
Loan Document executed in connection herewith) and the transactions evidenced
hereby (and thereby, as applicable) do not constitute a novation nor shall
they
be deemed to have terminated, extinguished, or discharged the “Obligations”
under
the Existing Credit Agreement or the other Existing Loan Documents (or the
collateral security therefor), all of which “Obligations”
and
Collateral shall continue under and be governed by this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents, except as provided otherwise herein.
· Entire
Agreement.
This
Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, embodies the entire agreement
and understanding among the Loan Parties, Administrative Agent and Lenders
and
supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements and understandings of such
Persons, verbal or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof.
Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective
parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any
party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof.
· Obligations
Several.
The
obligations of Lenders hereunder are several and no Lender shall be responsible
for the obligations of any other Lender. Nothing contained herein or in any
other Loan Document, and no action taken by Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto,
shall be deemed to constitute Lenders as a partnership, an association, a joint
venture or any other kind of entity. The amounts payable at any time hereunder
to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt, and each Lender shall
be entitled to protect and enforce its rights hereunder and it shall not be
necessary for any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any
proceeding for such purpose.

- Allocation
The
parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (1) the Loan and the Overriding
Royalty Interests constitute an “investment unit” as set forth in Section 1273
of the Code; (2) as soon as practicable after the Closing the parties hereto
shall reasonably cooperate in allocating the $25,000,000.00 loan amount between
the Loan and the Overriding Royalty Interests in accordance with their relative
fair market values as required by Section 1273 of the Code; and (3) they will
be
bound by this allocation for all tax purposes pursuant to Treasury Regulation
§
1.1273-2(h).
· General
Release.
Borrowers
hereby remise, release, acquit, satisfy and forever discharge Administrative
Agent and Lenders, their respective agents, employees, officers, directors,
attorneys and all others acting or purporting to act on behalf of or at the
direction of Administrative Agent or Lenders, of and from any and all manner

controversies, agreements, variances, damages, judgments, claims and demands
whatsoever, in law or in equity, which any of such parties ever had, now have
or
can, shall or may at any time have against GasRock Capital LLC and which
Borrowers, by reason of the assignment effected pursuant to the Assignment
Agreement, would purport to make or claim against Administrative Agent or
Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrowers waive
and
affirmatively agree not to allege or otherwise pursue against Administrative
Agent or Lenders any defenses, affirmative defenses, counterclaims, claims,
causes of action, setoffs or other rights such party does, shall or may have

exercise their respective rights and remedies described in this Agreement or
