Section 2.3 Assignment. To further secure the full and punctual payment and performance of all present and future Indebtedness, up to the maximum amount outstanding at any time and from time to time set forth in Section 2.5 (“Maximum Amount”) below, the Borrower does hereby absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally assign, transfer, convey and deliver to the Lender all monies which accrue after 7:00 a.m. Central Time, U.S.A., on the Effective Date of this Mortgage, to the Borrower’s interest in the Mineral Properties and all present and future rents therefrom (which rents include without limitation all royalties, delay rentals, shut-in payments and other payments which are rentals under Title 31 of the Louisiana Revised Statutes) and all proceeds of the Hydrocarbons (which proceeds include without limitation all payments for Hydrocarbons not yet delivered, such as those received pursuant to “take or pay” arrangements) and of the products obtained, produced or processed from or attributable to the Mineral Properties now or hereafter (which monies, rents and proceeds are referred to herein as the “Proceeds of Runs”). The Borrower hereby authorizes and directs all obligors of any Proceeds of Runs to pay and deliver to the Lender, upon request therefor by the Lender, all of the Proceeds of Runs accruing to the Borrower’s interest without further inquiry as to the rights of the Lender to receive the same. The Lender hereby agrees that it will not make such request unless and until there is an occurrence of an Event of Default.

Section 2.4 Condemnation. The Borrower hereby assigns to the Lender any and all awards that may be given or made in any proceedings by any legally constituted authority to condemn or expropriate the Collateral, or any part thereof, under power of eminent domain, and if there is such a condemnation or expropriation, the Lender may, at its election, either pay the net proceeds thereof toward the payment of the Indebtedness or pay the net proceeds thereof to the Borrower.

(b) The Borrower acknowledges that this Mortgage secures all Indebtedness, whether such loans or advances made or incurred by the Lender or the Beneficiaries are optional or obligatory by the Lender or the Beneficiaries. This Mortgage is and shall remain effective, even though the amount of the Indebtedness may now be zero or may later be reduced to zero, until all of the amounts, liabilities and obligations, present and future, comprising the Indebtedness have been incurred and are extinguished and a full and complete release of this Mortgage has been filed in the mortgage records for each parish in which any of the Mortgaged Property is located.
Section 2.6 Delivery of Transfer Orders. Independent of the other provisions and authorities herein granted, the Borrower agrees to execute and deliver any and all transfer orders, letters in lieu thereof, division orders and other instruments that may be requested by the Lender or that may be required by any purchaser of any Hydrocarbons for the purpose of effectuating payment of the Proceeds of Runs to the Lender. The Lender agrees, however, that it will not deliver such executed transfer orders, letters in lieu thereof or division orders unless and until there shall have occurred an Event of Default. If under any existing sales agreements, other than division orders or transfer orders, any Proceeds of Runs are required to be paid by the purchaser to the Borrower so that under such existing agreements payment cannot be made of such Proceeds of Runs to the Lender, the Borrower’s interest in all Proceeds of Runs under such sales agreements and in all other Proceeds of Runs which for any reason may be paid to the Borrower after the occurrence of an Event of Default, when received by the Borrower, constitute trust funds in the Borrower’s hands and shall be immediately paid over to the Lender.

Section 2.8 Application. All Proceeds of Runs from time to time in the hands of the Lender shall be applied by it toward the payment and prepayment of all Indebtedness at such times and in such manner as the Lender deems advisable, may be held by the Lender pending a resolution of any dispute as to the Lender’s right to collect such Proceeds of Runs, or may be delivered by the Lender to the Borrower without in any way reducing or paying the Indebtedness.
Section 2.9 Payment of Proceeds. In the event that, for its convenience, the Lender should elect with respect to all or particular Mineral Properties or Contracts not to exercise immediately its right to receive Hydrocarbons or Proceeds of Runs after the occurrence of an Event of Default, then the purchasers or other Persons obligated to make such payment shall continue to make payment to the Borrower until such time as written demand has been made upon them by the Lender that payment be made direct to the Lender. Such failure to notify such purchasers or other Persons shall not in any way waive, remit or release the right of the Lender to receive any payments not theretofore paid over to the Borrower before the giving of written notice. In this regard, in the event payments are made direct to the Lender, and then, at the request of the Lender payments are, for a period or periods of time, paid to the Borrower, the Lender shall nevertheless have the right, effective upon written notice, to require future payments be again made to it.

The Borrower has the right, and is hereby authorized, to pool or unitize all or any part of any tract of land described in Exhibit A, insofar as relates to the Mortgaged Property, with adjacent lands, leaseholds and other interests, when, in the reasonable judgment of the Borrower, it is necessary or advisable to do so in order to form a drilling unit to facilitate the orderly development of that part of the Mortgaged Property affected thereby, or to comply with the requirements of any law or governmental order or regulation relating to the spacing of xxxxx or proration of the production therefrom; provided, however, that the Hydrocarbons produced from any unit so formed shall be allocated among the separately owned tracts or interests comprising the unit in proportion to the respective surface areas thereof; and provided further that the Borrower is not entitled to form any such unit without the written consent of the Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) if the effect of such formation would be to decrease the amount of Hydrocarbons which would be subject to this Mortgage. Any unit so formed may relate to one or more zones or horizons, and a unit formed for a particular zone or horizon need not conform in area to any other unit relating to a different zone or horizon, and a unit formed for the production of oil need not conform in area with any unit formed for the production of gas. Immediately after formation of any such unit, the Borrower shall furnish to the Lender a true copy of the pooling agreement, declaration of pooling or other instrument creating such unit, in such number of counterparts as the Lender may reasonably request. The interest in any such unit attributable to the Mortgaged Property (or any part thereof) included therein shall become a part of the Mortgaged Property and shall be subject to the Lien hereof in the same manner and with the same effect as though such unit and the interest of the Borrower therein were specifically described in Exhibit A. The Borrower may enter into pooling or unitization agreements not hereinabove authorized only with the prior written consent of the Lender.
Section 4.6 Further Assurances. The Borrower will keep the Lien of this Mortgage valid and unimpaired. The Borrower will promptly (and in no event later than thirty (30) days after written notice from the Lender is received) (i) correct any defect, error or omission which may be discovered in the contents of this Mortgage or any financing statement relating thereto or in the execution or acknowledgment of this Mortgage or any financing statement; and (ii) execute, acknowledge, deliver and record such further instruments (including further security agreements, financing statements, continuation statements and assignments of accounts, contract rights, general intangibles and proceeds) and do such further acts as may be necessary, desirable or proper to carry out more effectively the purposes of this Mortgage and to more fully identify and subject to the Liens hereof any property intended to be covered hereby, including any renewals, additions, substitutions, replacements or accessions to the Collateral.
9
Section 4.7 Notice of Changes. The Borrower will not change its name, identity, state of organization, federal tax identification number or company structure in any manner unless it shall have given the Lender at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof.
ARTICLE 5
Remedies
Section 5.1 Remedies. (a) Upon the happening of any Event of Default, the Lender may by written notice to the Borrower declare the entire principal amount of all Indebtedness then outstanding including interest accrued thereon to be immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest or dishonor or other notice of default of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower.
(b) Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Lender may take such action, without notice or demand, as it deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against the Borrower and in and to the Collateral, including the following actions, each of which may be pursued concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as the Lender may determine, in its sole discretion, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of the Lender: (i) institute proceedings for the complete foreclosure of this Mortgage in which case the Collateral or any part thereof may be sold for cash or upon credit in one or more portions; or (ii) to the extent permitted and pursuant to the procedures provided by applicable law, institute proceedings for the partial foreclosure of this Mortgage for the portion of the Indebtedness then due and payable, subject to the continuing Lien of this Mortgage for the balance of the Indebtedness not then due; or (iii) institute an action, suit or proceeding in equity for the specific performance of any covenant, condition or agreement contained in this Mortgage or for a deficiency judgment; or (iv) apply for the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator or conservator of the Collateral, without regard for the adequacy of the security for the Indebtedness and without regard for the solvency of the Borrower or of any person, firm or other entity liable for the payment of the Indebtedness; or (v) pursue such other remedies as the Lender may have under applicable law.
(c) The proceeds or avails of any sale made under or by virtue of this Section, together with any other sums which then may be held by the Lender under this Mortgage, whether under the provisions of this Section or otherwise, shall be applied in such manner as the Lender, in its sole discretion, shall determine.
(d) Upon any sale made under or by virtue of this Section, the Lender may bid for and acquire the Collateral or any part thereof and in lieu of paying cash therefor may make settlement for the purchase price by crediting upon the Indebtedness the net sales price after deducting therefrom the expenses of the sale and the costs of the action and any other sums which the Lender is authorized to deduct under this Mortgage.
Section 5.2 General Authority. The Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints the Lender its agent and attorney in fact, with full power of substitution, in the name of the Borrower or the Lender, for the sole use and benefit of the Lender, but at the Borrower’s expense, to exercise, at any time and from time to time while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all or any of the following powers with respect to all or any of the Collateral:
(i) to endorse the name of the Borrower upon any check, draft or other instrument payable to the Borrower evidencing payment upon any Accounts or General Intangible,
10
(ii) to notify postal service authorities to change the address for delivery of the Borrower’s mail to a “lockbox” address designated and controlled by the Lender, and to receive, open and dispose of all mail addressed to the Borrower,
(iii) to demand, xxx for, collect, receive and give acquittance for any and all Accounts and other monies due or to become due for or as Collateral or by virtue thereof,
(iv) to settle, compromise, compound, prosecute or defend any action or proceeding with respect to any of the Collateral, and
(v) to extend the time of payment of any or all of the Collateral and to make any allowance and other adjustments with reference thereto.
The aforesaid mandate and power of attorney, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable so long as any of the Indebtedness remains outstanding.
Section 5.3 Accounts and Contracts. While an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (i) the Borrower will make no material change to the terms of any Account or Contract without the prior written permission of the Lender, and (ii) the Borrower upon request of the Lender will promptly notify (and the Borrower hereby authorizes the Lender so to notify) each account debtor in respect of any Account or General Intangible that such Collateral has been assigned to the Lender hereunder, and that any payments due or to become due in respect of such Collateral are to be made directly to the Lender or its designee.
Section 5.4 Sale. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Lender may exercise all rights of a secured party under the UCC and other applicable law (including the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in another applicable jurisdiction) and, in addition, the Lender may, without being required to give any notice, except as herein provided or as may be required by mandatory provisions of law, sell the Collateral or any part thereof at public or private sale, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices as the Lender may deem satisfactory. The Lender may be the purchaser of any or all of the Collateral so sold at any public sale (or, if the Collateral is of a type customarily sold in a recognized market or is of a type which is the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations, at any private sale). The Borrower will execute and deliver such documents and take such other action as the Lender deems necessary or advisable in order that any such sale may be made in compliance with law. Upon any such sale the Lender shall have the right to deliver, assign and transfer to the purchaser thereof the Collateral so sold. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the Collateral so sold to it absolutely and free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind, including any equity or right of redemption of the Borrower which may be waived, and the Borrower, to the extent permitted by law, hereby specifically waives all rights of redemption, stay or appraisal which it has or may have under any law now existing or hereafter adopted. The Borrower agrees that ten (10) days’ prior written notice of the time and place of any sale or other intended disposition of any of the Collateral constitutes reasonable notification, except that shorter or no notice shall be reasonable as to any Collateral which is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market. The notice (if any) of such sale shall (1) in case of a public sale, state the time and place fixed for such sale, and (2) in the case of a private sale, state the day after which such sale may be consummated. Any such public sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary business hours and at such place or places as the Lender may fix in the notice of such sale. At any such sale the Collateral may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels, as the Lender may determine. The Lender shall not be obligated to make any such sale pursuant to any such notice. The Lender may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for the sale, and such sale may be made at any time or place to which the same may be so adjourned. In case of any sale of all or any part of the Collateral on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by the Lender until the selling price is paid by the purchaser thereof, but the Lender shall not incur any liability in case of the failure of such purchaser to take up and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in case of any such failure, such Collateral may again be sold upon like notice.
Section 5.5 Set-Off. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Lender shall have the right to set-off any funds of the Borrower in the possession of the Lender against any amounts then due by the Borrower to the Lender pursuant to the Mortgage.
11
Section 5.6 Confession of Judgment. For purposes of foreclosure under Louisiana executory process procedures, the Borrower hereby acknowledges the Indebtedness and confesses judgment in favor of the Lender for the full amount of the Indebtedness.
Section 5.7 Expenses. The Borrower will pay all reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection with the full protection and preservation of, and foreclosure, collection or other realization of or on, the Collateral or this Mortgage, or in connection with the enforcement of any of the Borrower’s obligations or the Lender’s rights and remedies set forth herein, whether or not suit or any foreclosure proceedings are filed. All insurance expenses and all expenses of protecting, storing, warehousing, appraising, preparing for sale, handling, maintaining and shipping the Collateral, any and all excise, property, sales, and use taxes imposed by any federal, state or local authority on any of the Collateral, all expenses in respect of periodic appraisals and inspections of the Collateral to the extent the same may be requested from time to time, and all expenses in respect of the sale or other disposition thereof shall be borne and paid by the Borrower.
Section 5.8 Keeper. In the event the Collateral, or any part thereof, is seized as an incident to an action for the recognition or enforcement of this Mortgage by executory process, ordinary process, sequestration, writ of fieri facias or otherwise, the Borrower and the Lender agree that the court issuing any such order shall, if petitioned for by the Lender, direct the applicable sheriff to appoint as a keeper of the Collateral, the Lender or any agent designated by the Lender or any person named by the Lender at the time such seizure is effected. This designation is pursuant to Louisiana Revised Statutes 9:5131 through 5135 and 9:5136 through 5140.2, as the same may be amended, and the Lender shall be entitled to all the rights and benefits afforded thereunder. The designation of keeper made herein shall not be deemed to require the Lender to provoke the appointment of such a keeper.
Section 5.9 Waivers. The Borrower waives in favor of the Lender any and all homestead exemptions and other exemptions of seizure or otherwise to which the Borrower is or may be entitled under the constitution and statutes of the State of Louisiana insofar as the Collateral is concerned. The Borrower further waives: (a) the benefit of appraisement as provided in Louisiana Code of Civil Procedure Articles 2332, 2336, 2723 and 2724, and all other laws conferring the same; (b) the notice of seizure required by Louisiana Code of Civil Procedure Articles 2293 and 2721; (c) the three days' delay provided by Louisiana Code of Civil Procedure Articles 2331 and 2722; and (d) the benefit of the other provisions of Louisiana Code of Civil Procedure Articles 2331, 2722 and 2723, not specifically mentioned above.
Section 5.10 Authentic Evidence. Any and all declarations of facts made by authentic act before a notary public in the presence of two witnesses by a person declaring that such facts lie within his knowledge, shall constitute authentic evidence of such facts for the purpose of executory process. The Borrower specifically agrees that such an affidavit by a representative of the Lender as to the existence, amount, terms and maturity of the Indebtedness and of a default thereunder shall constitute authentic evidence of such facts for the purpose of executory process.
Section 5.11 Assemble Collateral. For the purpose of enforcing any and all rights and remedies under this Mortgage the Lender may (i) require the Borrower to, and the Borrower agrees that it will, at its expense and upon the request of the Lender, forthwith assemble all or any part of the Collateral as directed by the Lender and make it available at a place designated by the Lender which is, in its opinion, reasonably convenient to the Lender and the Borrower, whether at the premises of the Borrower or otherwise, and Lender shall be entitled to specific performance of this obligation, (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable law of this or any other state, enter, with or without process of law and without breach of the peace, any premise where any of the Collateral is or may be located, and without charge or liability to it seize and remove such Collateral from such premises, (iii) have access to and use the Borrower’s books and records relating to the Collateral, and (iv) prior to the disposition of the Collateral, store or transfer it without charge in or by means of any storage or transportation facility owned or leased by the Borrower, process, repair or recondition it or otherwise prepare it for disposition in any manner and to the extent the Lender deems appropriate and, in connection with such preparation and disposition, use without charge any trademark, trade name, copyright, patent or technical process used by the Borrower.

Introduction to Description of Mineral Properties
The Borrower and the Lender hereby agree and affirm that this Introduction to Description of Properties is an amplification and explanation of the terminology, format and information contained in Exhibit A and that this instrument shall be construed as a whole with reference to the entirety of its provisions (including all Exhibits).
1. This instrument covers the Borrower’s entire interest in each of the mineral servitudes, mineral leases, mineral royalties and other mineral rights described in Exhibit A, as now owned or as hereafter acquired. The inclusion of the Borrower’s “Revenue Interests,” “Working Interests” and undivided leasehold interests, by the listing of percentage, decimal or fractional numbers or otherwise, as well as the inclusion of depth limitations, spacing unit designations and agreements, well names and well arabic numbers, are in some instances for purposes of certain representations of the Borrower contained in this instrument and are generally for descriptive purposes. The inclusion (or the inaccuracy thereof) of this information is not in any way a limitation or restriction on the interest of the Borrower being subjected to the lien and encumbrance of this instrument. In the event that the Borrower acquires additional undivided interests in some or all of such mineral rights, this Mortgage shall automatically encumber such additions or increases to the Borrower’s interest in such mineral rights without need of further act or document.
2. This instrument is intended to cover the entire interest of the Borrower in any lease described in Exhibit A. Reference is made to the land descriptions contained in the documents of title recorded as described in Exhibit A.
3. References in Exhibit A to instruments on file in the public records are made for all purposes.

4. A statement herein that a certain interest described herein is subject to the terms of certain described or referred to agreements, instruments or other matters shall not operate to subject such interest to any such agreement, instrument or other matter except to the extent that such agreement, instrument or matter is otherwise valid and presently subsisting nor shall such statement be deemed to constitute a recognition by the parties hereto that any such agreement, instrument or other matter is valid and presently subsisting or binding against the Lender.
