Article II - Purchase Price
2.01 Purchase Price. In return for the sale of the Interests
described in Paragraph 1.02 above, and subject to the other
provisions hereof, Buyer shall pay to Seller the sum of Four
Million and No/100 Dollars ($4,000,000.00), by depositing
said sum, subject to adjustments under this Agreement, with
an Escrow Agent pursuant to the Escrow Agreement and
Instructions (copy attached hereto as Exhibit D) executed by
both Parties prior to or at Closing. The Purchase Price
shall be:
(a) increased by an amount equal to the sum of all
monies paid by Seller prior to Closing which are
attributable to the costs relating to operation of the
Assets from and after the Effective Date, and;
(b) decreased by an amount equal to the sum of (i)
revenues generated by the Assets and received by Seller
prior to Closing which are attributable to operation of
the Assets from and after the Effective Date, (ii) the
actual amount (or, if the actual amount is unavailable,
a reasonable estimate) of Seller's share of property
and ad valorem taxes not yet paid by Seller
attributable to periods of time prior to the Effective
Date, and (iii) the amount of reduction in the Purchase
Price for the Alleged Defect(s) elected by Seller or
Buyer under Paragraph 5.03.
2.02 Post-Closing Adjustment and Payments. The Purchase Price
shall be subject to further adjustment, and appropriate
payment shall be made by the Buyer or the Seller, after the
Closing, including the following:
(a) Seller shall pay Buyer an amount equal to Seller's
proportionate share of (i) additional expenditures paid
by Buyer subsequent to the Closing, to the extent such
expenses, invoices or statements pertain to work
performed, or materials and supplies purchased, for the
Assets prior to the Effective Date, plus (ii) any
adjustments to the estimated ad valorem and property
taxes used to calculate the Purchase Price paid by
Buyer at Closing, to the extent such taxes are
attributable to time periods prior to the Effective
Date, and to the extent the actual amount of such taxes
is higher than the parties' original estimate;
(b) Buyer shall pay Seller an amount equal to Seller's
proportionate share of (i) any additional payments or
receivables paid to Buyer subsequent to Closing, to the
extent such payments are attributable to periods prior
to the Effective Date, plus (ii) any adjustments to the
estimated ad valorem and property taxes used to
calculate the Purchase Price paid by Buyer at Closing,
to the extent such taxes are attributable to time
periods prior to the Effective Date, and to the extent
the actual amount of such taxes is lower than the
parties' original estimate;
All post-closing adjustments shall be calculated by the
party making the payments as soon as all necessary
information is available, but in no event more than ninety
(90) days after Closing (or such additional time upon which
the parties may mutually agree). The party making the
calculation shall send it along with all supporting
documentation and accounting explanation to the other party,
which shall then have thirty (30) days to agree or disagree
with the calculations. If the receiving party does not
agree with the calculations, it shall so notify the sending
party (which notice shall set forth the reasons and basis
for the disagreement in reasonable detail), after which the
parties shall meet as soon as practicable to resolve their
differences. Failure by the receiving party to notify the
sending party within the thirty (30) day period in a timely
manner shall be deemed to be an acceptance by the receiving
party of the sending party's calculations. Once a
calculation has been agreed to (or been deemed to be agreed
to), the appropriate payment shall be paid within seven (7)
days of the date on which the parties agree (or are deemed
to have agreed) on the calculation and amount of the
adjustment. In the event a party owes money to the other
party, the amounts may be netted against each other before
the final net payment is made, but only as to amounts that
are not in dispute. If the parties are unable to reach
agreement on the calculation or amount of any post-closing
adjustment, such unresolved issues shall be submitted either
to arbitration or to a nationally recognized independent
certified public accounting firm of which neither party is a
client, which shall be chosen by both parties. The cost
charged by such arbitration or accounting firm shall be
equally borne by the parties.
2.03 Sales Taxes. While the parties do not believe that any
sales taxes should be applicable to this transaction, Buyer
and Seller agree that, if it is determined that sales taxes
are applicable to this transaction, any such sales taxes
shall be borne entirely by the Buyer.

incorporation, by-laws, or other governing
documents;

"Net Revenue Interests" (NRI) of all indicated
hydrocarbons produced, saved and marketed from or
attributable to the land and all xxxxx located thereon
or attributable thereto through the plugging,
abandonment and salvage of such xxxxx. Seller's
obligation to bear costs and expenses relating to the
development of and operations on the leases, land, and

(g) Valid Leases. All leases are in full force and effect,
are valid and subsisting, cover the entire estates they
purport to cover, and contain no express provisions
that require the drilling of additional xxxxx or other

agreement pertaining to the Interests and, except as
specifically indicated in Exhibit A-1, there are no
contracts or other agreements pertaining to the

of Seller or require Seller to perform any obligations
thereunder.
Except as agreed to by Buyer, no hydrocarbons produced
from the Interests are subject to a sales contract or
other agreement relating to the production, gathering,
transporting, processing, treating or marketing of
hydrocarbons, and no person has any call upon, option
to purchase or similar rights with respect to the
Interests or to the production therefrom.
(j) Gas Imbalances and Prepayment. Seller has not
received for the period prior to the Effective Date any
deficiency payments under gas contracts covering or
included within any of the Assets for which any party
has a right to take deficiency gas from the Assets for

received any payments for production of any kind from
the Assets, which imbalances or payments are subject to
recoupment or refund out of future production.

liability, contingent or otherwise, for brokers' or
finders' fees relating to the transactions contemplated

investigations or inquiries, or other actions
pending or threatened against the Seller before

in impairment or loss of the Seller's title to any
portion of the Interests or that might have a
material adverse effect on the Interests after the
Effective Date or that might prevent or delay
closing;
(ii) as of the Effective Date there are no
unlawful environmental conditions existing at the
Assets; and
(iii) there are no claims existing that
the Assets have not been operated and maintained

production, severance, excise and similar taxes and
assessments based on or measured by the ownership of
property or the production of hydrocarbons or the
receipt of proceeds therefrom upon the Interests that
have become due and payable have been properly and
timely paid. For purposes of this Agreement, taxes
based on or measured by production shall be deemed
attributable to the period in which the production
occurred, regardless of the fact that such taxes may
not be assessed or payable until some subsequent
period.
(n) No Bankruptcy. To the best of Seller's knowledge
(after having made inquiry with respect thereto), there
are no bankruptcy, insolvency or other proceedings for
the benefit of creditors pending, contemplated or
threatened by or against Seller.
