1.5 Allocated Values. Schedule 1.5 shows the agreed allocation of the purchase price (“Base Purchase Price”) plus the agreed allocation of the price for the Additional Properties among the Xxxxx, the Leases and the other Purchased Assets. Such values (singularly, the “Allocated Value,” and collectively, the “Allocated Values”) shall be binding for purposes of adjusting the Base Purchase Price under Section 1.6, Section 5.3, and Article VI. For purposes of Tax filings, the Allocated Values shall be increased or decreased as follows: (a) any adjustments to the Base Purchase Price under Section 1.6, Section 5.3, or Article VI shall be applied to the amounts in Schedule 1.5 for the particular affected Purchased Assets, if determinable; and (b) any adjustments to the Base Purchase Price under Section 1.6 or Article VI that are not specific to any particular Purchased Asset or Purchased Assets (for example, general and administrative expense) shall be applied pro rata to each Purchased Asset allocation in Schedule 1.5 in proportion to the amount of each. Seller and Buyer each agrees that (i) the Allocated Values shall be used by it as the basis for reporting asset values and other items for purposes of all federal, state, and local Tax returns, including Internal Revenue Service Form 8594, and (ii) neither it nor its Affiliates will take positions inconsistent with the Allocated Values in notices to Governmental Entities, in audit or other proceedings with respect to Taxes, in notices to preferential purchaser right holders, or in other documents or notices relating to the Transactions.

1.7 Apportionment of Certain Taxes. All Property Taxes and Hydrocarbon Taxes attributable to the period before the Effective Time shall be for Seller’s account and all Taxes attributable to the period after and including the Effective Time shall be for Buyer’s account. All Property Taxes assessed with respect to the Purchased Assets for year 2015 shall be prorated based on the number of days in such period that occur before the Effective Time, on the one hand, and the number of days in such period that include or occur after the Effective Time, on the other hand. All Hydrocarbon Taxes shall be deemed attributable to the period during which such production occurred. The apportionment of Property Taxes and Hydrocarbon Taxes between the Parties shall take place in the Adjustment Statement and the Final Adjustment Statement using estimates of such Taxes if actual numbers are not available. If estimates of such Taxes are used in the Adjustment Statement and the Final Adjustment Statement to apportion Taxes, upon determination of the actual amount of such Taxes, (a) Seller shall pay to Buyer an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the actual Property Taxes and Hydrocarbon Taxes allocable to Seller over the estimated amount of such Taxes allocated to Seller, and (b) Buyer shall pay to Seller an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the estimated amount of Property Taxes and Hydrocarbon Taxes allocated to Seller over the actual amount of such Taxes allocable to Seller.

1.8 Closing Date Adjustment to Purchase Price.

(a) At least three, but no more than five, Business Days prior to the expected Closing Date, Sellers’ Representative shall deliver to Buyer a written statement (the “Adjustment Statement”) setting forth Seller’s good faith determination of each adjustment to the Purchase Price required under this Agreement and showing the calculation of such adjustments (the “Initial Adjustment Amount”). Sellers’ Representative shall attach to the Adjustment Statement such supporting documentation and other data as is reasonably necessary to provide a basis for the Initial Adjustment Amount shown in the Adjustment Statement.

(b) If Buyer has any questions or disagreements regarding the Adjustment Statement, then, upon request by Buyer at least two Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Sellers’ Representative and Buyer shall in good faith attempt to resolve any disagreements, and Sellers’ Representative shall afford Buyer the opportunity to examine the Adjustment Statement and such supporting schedules, analyses and workpapers on which the Adjustment Statement is based or from which the Adjustment Statement is derived as are reasonably requested by Buyer. Sellers’ Representative shall give personnel, accountants and representatives of Buyer reasonable access to Sellers’ Representative’s premises and to its books and records for purposes of reviewing Seller’s calculation of the Initial Adjustment Amount and will cause appropriate personnel of Seller to assist Buyer and Buyer’s personnel, accountants and representatives, with no charge to Buyer for such assistance, in Buyer’s review of such calculation.

(c) If Buyer and Sellers’ Representative agree on changes to the Initial Adjustment Amount based on such discussions, then the Closing Date Aggregate Purchase Price shall be paid at Closing based on such changes. If Buyer and Seller do not agree on changes to the Initial Adjustment Amount, then the Closing Date Aggregate Purchase Price shall be paid at Closing based on the amounts provided in the Adjustment Statement. In either such case, appropriate adjustments to the Base Purchase Price shall be made after Closing under Section 1.9.

(d) If the Initial Adjustment Amount shown on the Adjustment Statement is a positive number, then the Base Purchase Price shall be increased by such amount. If the Initial Adjustment Amount shown on the Adjustment Statement is a negative number, then the Base Purchase Price shall be decreased by such amount. The Base Purchase Price as adjusted by the Initial Adjustment Amount (as such may be modified pursuant to any comments of Buyer accepted by Seller) is referred to as the “Closing Date Aggregate Purchase Price.”

1.9 Post-Closing Adjustments to Base Purchase Price.

(a) After Closing, Sellers’ Representative shall review the Adjustment Statement and determine the actual Purchase Price Adjustment. As promptly as practicable, but in no event later than 90 days after the Closing Date, Sellers’ Representative shall deliver to Buyer a written statement setting forth each adjustment to the Purchase Price required under this Agreement and showing the calculation of such adjustments (the “Final Adjustment Statement”), together with such supporting documentation and other data as is reasonably necessary to provide a basis for the Purchase Price Adjustment shown in the Final Adjustment Statement. Sellers’ Representative shall give personnel, accountants and representatives of Buyer reasonable access to Seller’s premises and to its books and records for purposes of reviewing Seller’s calculation of the Purchase Price Adjustment and shall cause appropriate personnel of Sellers’ Representative to assist Buyer and Buyer’s personnel, accountants and representatives, with no charge to Buyer for such assistance, in Buyer’s review of such calculation. As soon as reasonably practicable but not later than the 60th day after Buyer receives the Final Adjustment Statement, Buyer shall deliver to Sellers’ Representative a written report containing any changes that Buyer proposes to be made to the Final Adjustment Statement. The Parties shall undertake to agree on the Final Adjustment Statement no later than 90 days after Sellers’ Representative has delivered it to Buyer.

Colfax Exploration Partners I, LLC and Xxxxxxx Resources, Inc.	Intended for Addressee Only

(b) If the Parties do not agree on the Final Adjustment Statement within such 90-day period, either Buyer or Sellers (acting through Sellers’ Representative) may submit any unresolved disagreements as to Buyer’s proposed changes as described above, to a reputable mediator in Dallas, Texas for a final and binding determination, and Buyer and Seller shall execute any engagement, indemnity and other agreements that such mediator may reasonably require in connection with or as a condition to such engagement. Buyer and Seller shall cooperate diligently with any reasonable request of the mediator and furnish to the mediator any work papers and other documents and information relating to such objections that the mediator may reasonably request and which are available to such Party or its subsidiaries (or its independent public accountants). The Parties will be afforded the opportunity to present to the mediator any material relating to the determination of the matters in dispute and to discuss such determination with the mediator prior to the mediator’s delivery of written notice of determination and to the extent that a value has been assigned to any objection that remains in dispute, the accounting firm shall not assign a value to such objection that is greater than the greatest value for such objection claimed by a Party or less than the smallest value for such objection claimed by a Party.

(c) The fees and expenses of the accounting firm in making that determination shall be borne equally by Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand. Upon resolution of Buyer’s disagreements, the Final Adjustment Statement (including any revisions resolved or agreed to), shall be conclusive, final and binding on Buyer and Seller as to the Purchase Price Adjustment.

(d) Within three Business Days after the final determination of the Final Adjustment Statement under this Section 1.9 (by agreement or arbitration), if: (i) the Base Purchase Price as adjusted by the Purchase Price Adjustment calculated based on the Final Adjustment Statement exceeds the Closing Date Aggregate Purchase Price, then Buyer will pay to Seller such excess; or (ii) the Closing Date Aggregate Purchase Price exceeds the Base Purchase Price as adjusted by the Purchase Price Adjustment calculated based on the Final Adjustment Statement, then Seller will pay to Buyer such excess. Except for specific costs which are expressly provided and accounted for in the final and binding Final Adjustment Statement, neither the Final Adjustment Statement nor this Section 1.9 shall operate to waive, release or impair the indemnity and hold harmless obligations of the Parties under Article VIII.

(e) Following the adjustments under the forgoing subsections (a) through (d), no further adjustments shall be made under this Section 1.9. Following such adjustments, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, should Sellers receive any bills or revenue with regard to the Purchased Assets for the period on or after the Effective Time, Sellers will forward such bills or revenue to Buyer, and should Buyer receive any bills or revenue with regard to the Purchased Assets for the period prior to the Effective Time, Buyer will forward such bills or revenue to Sellers.

1.10 Prepaid JOA Funds. To the extent that as of Closing Seller holds funds received by Seller (in its capacity as operator with respect to Operated Properties) as prepayments for items to be incurred after Closing, or incurred after the Effective Time and not paid prior to Closing, under operating agreements which constitute Assigned Contracts and under which Buyer or its designee is succeeding as operator (“Prepaid JOA Funds”): (a) no adjustment to the Base Purchase Price shall be made with respect to such Prepaid JOA Funds; and (b) to the extent Buyer takes over payment responsibility for the relevant items as successor operator, Seller shall deliver to Buyer at Closing, to an account(s) designated by Buyer in writing to Seller, an amount of money equal to such Prepaid JOA Funds and an accounting of each of such prepayments and Buyer shall from and after such time be responsible for the application of such Prepaid JOA Funds under the applicable operating agreement.

1.11 Division of Ownership.

(a) Division of Hydrocarbons. After Closing, all hydrocarbons produced from the Subject Interests and not in storage tanks above the pipeline connection or past a measuring point as of the Effective Time shall be owned by Buyer. All Hydrocarbons produced from the Subject Interests and disposed of, or in storage tanks above the pipeline connection or past a measuring point as of the Effective Time shall be owned by Seller. To the extent that Seller has sold Hydrocarbons (other than such Hydrocarbons described in the preceding sentence) which constitute Purchased Assets after the Effective Time but prior to Closing, and the Base Purchase Price has not been adjusted under Section 1.6 for such proceeds, Seller shall deliver such proceeds to Buyer promptly upon Seller’s receipt.

(b) Division of Operating Expenses; Royalties. As between Buyer and Seller: (i) all Operating Expenses attributable to the Purchased Assets before the Effective Time shall be borne by Seller; (ii) all Operating Expenses attributable to the Purchased Assets after the Effective Time shall be borne by Buyer, except to the extent accounted for as an increase to the Base Purchase Price in accordance with Section 1.6(a)(i); (iii) Seller shall retain responsibility for, and shall timely pay and discharge (or cause to be paid and discharged), all royalties to the extent attributable to Hydrocarbons produced from the Subject Interests before the Effective Time; (iv) Seller shall be responsible for and shall timely pay and discharge (or cause to be discharged) all royalties with respect to payments that have been received by Seller prior to Closing to the extent attributable to Hydrocarbons produced from the Subject Interests during the Interim Period, which payments and discharges shall be accounted for as an increase in the Purchase Price under Section 1.6(a)(i); and (v) Buyer shall be responsible for and shall timely pay and discharge (or cause to be discharged) all royalties with respect to payments that are received by Buyer at or after Closing. If a Party receives after the Closing Date any bills or accounts or any reimbursement in relation to Operating Expenses for which the other Party or Parties are responsible under this Section 1.11, then the receiving Party shall promptly forward the same to the responsible Party or Parties (for payment, in the case of any such bills or accounts). If a Party receives after the Closing Date any xxxx, account or reimbursement in relation to Operating Expenses for which each Party is liable in part under this Section 1.11, the receiving Party shall promptly forward a copy of the same to the other Party or Parties, but each Party shall be required to pay only such portion of any xxxx or account for which it is responsible in accordance with this Section 1.11.

1.12 No Duplicative Effect; Methodologies. The provisions of Section 1.6 through Section 1.11 shall apply in such a manner so as not to give the components and calculations duplicative effect to any item of adjustment and, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the Parties covenant and agree that no amount shall be (or is intended to be) included, in whole or in part (either as an increase or reduction) more than once in the calculation of (including any component of) the Purchase Price or Closing Date Aggregate Purchase Price, or any other calculated amount under this Agreement if the effect of such additional inclusion (either as an increase or reduction) would be to cause such amount to be overstated or understated for purposes of such calculation. The Parties acknowledge and agree that, if a conflict exists between a determination, calculation, methodology, procedure or principle provided in the definitions in this Agreement on the one hand, and those provided by GAAP, on the other hand: (a) the determination, calculation, methodology, procedure or principle provided in this Agreement shall control to the extent that the matter is specifically provided for in this Agreement; and (b) the determination, calculation or methodology, procedure or principle prescribed by GAAP shall control to the extent that the matter is not so addressed in this Agreement or requires reclassification as an asset or liability to be included in a line item or specific adjustment.

(a) With respect to any Purchased Assets for which Buyer delivers a notice of Environmental Defect prior to or on the Objection Date, the Parties shall have the following rights and remedies:

(i) Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure the Environmental Defect by obtaining a “no further action” letter or its equivalent from the relevant Governmental Entity, or if the Parties agree that no such letter or approval is likely to be forthcoming because the provision for such “no further action” letter or its equivalent is not provided for under applicable Environmental Laws, a certificate from a licensed professional engineer reasonably acceptable to Buyer that a cure of the Environmental Defect has been accomplished to the extent necessary to comply with existing Laws, so long as such cure is accomplished in accordance with this Section 5.3(c)(i) on or before 120 days following the Closing (the “Environmental Cure Period”).

Within ten days following the date of the arbitrator’s decision, Sellers shall pay any Environmental Defect Value determined by the arbitrator with respect to such affected Purchased Asset and shall be released from any liability for the applicable Environmental Defect; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, there shall be no cure, remedy, deletion or adjustment to the Purchase Price whatsoever in respect of any Environmental Defects unless the aggregate value of all Environmental Defects equals or exceeds $1,000 (the “Environmental Defect Deductible”). The amount of the reduction in Purchase Price shall be the aggregate amount of Environmental Defect Values that exceed the Environmental Defect Deductible.

Notwithstanding the preceding, the following shall not (in and of themselves) constitute Title Defects:

(a) defects in the chain of title consisting of the failure to recite marital status or omissions of successors or heirship proceedings, unless Buyer provides affirmative evidence that such failure or omission could reasonably be expected to result in a Third Person’s actual and superior claim of title to the Purchased Asset;

(b) defects asserting a change in Net Revenue Interests or Working Interests based on an after-payout decrease in Net Revenue Interests or increase in Working Interests under a farm-in, farm-out or other agreement that is listed on Schedule 6.4(b), if the effect of such change is reflected in the Net Revenue Interests and Working Interests provided in Exhibit A, B or Schedule 10, as applicable; expected to result in a Third Person’s actual and superior claim of title to the Purchased Asset;

(k) outstanding deed of trust and mortgage liens burdening the interests of any lessor under any of the Leases, unless there is evidence that the mortgagee or lien holder has asserted a default under any such deed of trust or mortgage and has exercised, or intends to exercise, foreclosure proceedings.

6.5 Title Defect Value. “Title Defect Value” means the value of the Title Defect determined in accordance with the following:

(a) if Buyer and Seller agree in writing on the Title Defect Value, that amount shall be the Title Defect Value;

(b) if the Title Defect is a discrepancy between the Net Revenue Interests in respect of the Lease and the Net Revenue Interests for such Lease listed on Exhibit A or Schedule 10, as applicable, the Title Defect Value shall be equal to the Allocated Value of the Lease multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the positive difference between the actual Net Revenue Interest of Seller in the Lease and the Net Revenue Interest provided for such Lease on Exhibit A or Schedule 10, as applicable, and the denominator of which is the Net Revenue Interest provided for such Lease on Exhibit A or Schedule 10, as applicable;

(d) if the Title Defect is the increase in the Working Interests in respect of the Lease to the extent such increase is not accompanied by a corresponding increase in the Net Revenue Interests, the Title Defect Value shall be determined by Buyer in good faith in its reasonable discretion; and

(e) if the Title Defect is a discrepancy between the actual Net Mineral Acres for any Lease and the Net Mineral Acres for such Lease stated in Exhibit A or Schedule 10, as applicable, then the Title Defect Value shall be the product obtained by multiplying the Allocated Value of the Lease by a fraction the numerator of which shall be the positive difference, if any, between the Net Mineral Acres for such Lease stated on Exhibit A or Schedule 10, as applicable, and the actual Net Mineral Acres for such Lease and the denominator of which shall be the Net Mineral Acres for such Lease stated on Exhibit A or Schedule 10, as applicable.

Only that portion of the Lease that is adversely affected by a Title Defect shall be considered for purposes of determining the Title Defect Value. For the avoidance of doubt, if a Title Defect affects a Well and/or Well Location and an underlying Lease or Leases, the Title Defect Value shall be determined by adding the effect of the Title Defect on the Well or Well Location to the effect of the Title Defect on the underlying Lease or Leases, and this shall not be deemed to be duplication of values. The Allocated Values of the Xxxxx and Well Locations have been determined on the basis that a separate valuation is provided for the underlying Net Mineral Acres of Leases.

6.6 Title Defect Notice. Buyer shall give Seller notice of any Title Defects (“Title Defect Notice”) no later than the Objection Date. If Buyer becomes aware of any Title Defect prior to the Objection Date, Buyer may, but are not required to, provide a Title Defect Notice with respect to such Title Defect prior to the Objection Date, and Buyer may provide one or more Title Defect Notices on or prior to the Objection Date. Each Title Defect Notice must be in writing and include all of the following:

(a) a description of the Title Defect in reasonable detail;

(b) supporting documentation in Buyer’s possession, if any, reasonably necessary to support Buyer’s belief that the Title Defect has not been released or cured and is still enforceable;

(c) the identity and the Allocated Value, if any, of the Lease, Well and/or Well Location, as applicable, containing the Title Defect; and

(d) the amount by which Buyer reasonably believe the Allocated Value of such Purchased Assets is reduced by the alleged Title Defects.

6.7 Accepted Title Liabilities. Any Title Defect Notice that is not properly given pursuant to Section 6.6, shall not be a valid Title Defect Notice, and any Title Defects not included in a valid Title Defect Notice delivered on or prior to the Objection Date shall be deemed to be “Accepted Title Liabilities” and shall be deemed to have been waived by Buyer.

6.8 Seller’s Cure Right; Adjustments to Purchase Price.

(a) If Buyer gives a Title Defect Notice, Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to attempt, at Seller’s sole cost, to cure within 90 days after the Objection Date or the date of resolution of a disputed Title Defect under Section 6.9 (the “Title Cure Period”), to Buyer’s reasonable satisfaction, any alleged Title Defects for which a Title Defect Notice has been delivered under Section 6.6 on or prior to the Objection Date.

(b) With respect to each Purchased Asset affected by Title Defects for which a Title Defect Notice has been delivered by Buyer under Section 6.6 on or prior to the Objection Date and not cured during the Title Cure Period to Buyer’s reasonable satisfaction, subject to Section 6.9 and 6.10, the Purchase Price shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Title Defect Value for such Purchased Asset.

Asset Purchase Agreement between	Proprietary and Confidential
Colfax Exploration Partners I, LLC and Xxxxxxx Resources, Inc.	Intended for Addressee Only

(c) Section 6.9 shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws, be the exclusive right and remedy of Buyer with respect to any Title Defect, except in connection with Buyer’s remedies for any breach of Seller’s covenants under Section 8.1(b).

6.9 Disputes Relating to Title Defect Value. Seller (acting through Sellers’ Representative) and Buyer shall attempt to agree on the effect of any efforts of Seller to cure any Title Defects and all Title Defect Values on or before 120 days after the Objection Date. Any Title Defects and Title Defect Values in dispute and not resolved by such date shall be submitted to a title attorney with at least three years’ experience in oil and gas titles in Texas as selected by mutual agreement of Buyer and Seller (acting through Sellers’ Representative), or absent such agreement within a ten-day period following the date that is 120 days after the Objection Date, by the Dallas, Texas office of the AAA (the “Title Arbitrator”). The Title Arbitrator shall not have worked as an employee or outside counsel for any Party or it’s Affiliates during the five (5) year period preceding the arbitration or have any financial interest in the dispute. The arbitration proceeding shall be held in Dallas, Texas and shall be conducted in accordance with the Commercial Rules, to the extent such rules do not conflict with the terms of this Section. The Title Arbitrator’s determination shall be made within 30 days after submission of the matters in dispute and shall be final and binding on all Parties, without right of appeal. In making his or her determination, the Title Arbitrator shall be bound by the rules provided in Section 6.5 and may consider such other matters as in the opinion of the Title Arbitrator are necessary or helpful to make a proper determination. Additionally, the Title Arbitrator may consult with and engage disinterested Third Persons to advise the Title Arbitrator, including title attorneys from other states and petroleum engineers. The Title Arbitrator shall act as an expert for the limited purpose of determining the specific disputed Title Defects and Title Defect Values submitted by any Party and may not award damages, interest or penalties to any Party with respect to any matter. Each Party shall bear such Party’s own legal fees and other costs of presenting such Party’s case. Buyer and Seller shall bear the costs and expenses of the Title Arbitrator in equal parts.

6.10 Adjustment to Purchase Price; Title Defect Deductible.

(a) The Purchase Price shall be adjusted for Title Defect Values as provided in Section 6.8(b); provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, there shall be no cure, remedy, deletion or adjustment to the Purchase Price whatsoever in respect of any Title Defects unless the aggregate value of all Title Defects equals or exceeds $50,000 (the “Title Defect Deductible”) and in such event the reduction in the Purchase Price shall be the aggregate amount of Title Defect Values that exceed the Title Defect Deductible, unless such Title Defect arises from the failure to satisfy any Transfer Requirements, in which case the Title Defect Deductible shall not apply.

(b) Upon final resolution of all disputes as to the validity and amounts of Title Defects in accordance with Section 6.9, if: (i) the Final Adjustment Statement has not then become final, the Title Defect Value this Article VI shall be used for purposes of the Final Adjustment Statement and calculation of the Purchase Price for purposes of Section 1.9; or (ii) the Final Adjustment Statement has become final then within three Business Days after the final determination of any reduction in the Purchase Price for Title Defects, Seller will pay to Buyer the amount of such reduction.

6.11 Preference Rights and Transfer Requirements.

(a) The Transactions are expressly subject to all validly existing and applicable Preference Rights and Transfer Requirements. Within ten days after the date of this Agreement, Seller shall, subject to Buyer’s prior review of Seller’s consent request letters and Preference Right waiver request letters, initiate all procedures which are reasonably required to comply with or obtain the waiver of all Preference Rights and Transfer Requirements with respect to the Transactions. Seller shall use its Reasonable Best Efforts to obtain all applicable consents and to obtain waivers of applicable Preference Rights.

(b) Upon the exercise of any Preference Right after the Closing with respect to any Purchased Asset conveyed to Buyer, Buyer shall tender the required interest in such Purchased Asset affected by such Preference Right, at the Allocated Value for such affected Purchased Asset (or portion thereof) to the holder, or holders, of such right. In return for tendering the Purchased Asset to such holders, Buyer shall collect and retain such amount from such purchaser as its sole and exclusive remedy for such exercise of a Preferential Right. At Closing, Seller will assign to Buyer the Purchased Asset, including any Purchased Asset that is subject to an unexercised Preference Right, subject to such right to purchase.

6.12 Upward Defect Adjustments. If Buyer or Seller discover additional interests in the Purchased Assets, including any Net Mineral Acres in excess of the Net Mineral Acres set forth in Exhibit A or Schedule 10 or any interest that entitles Seller to receive more than the Net Revenue Interests set forth in Exhibit A, Exhibit B or Schedule 10 or obligates Seller to bear costs and expenses in an amount less than the Working Interests set forth in Exhibit A, Exhibit B or Schedule 10 without a corresponding reduction in Seller’s Net Revenue Interest, the discovering party shall notify the other party of such interest (the “Additional Interest”). The party who discovers the Additional Interest shall give the other party written notice of the Additional Interest as soon as possible, but in no event later than the Objection Date. This notice shall be in writing and shall include (i) a description of each Additional Interest, (ii) the basis for each Additional Interest and supporting documentation with respect thereto, (iii) the Allocated Value of the Lease, Well or undeveloped location affected by the Additional Interest, (iv) the value of the Additional Interest or the amount by which the notifying party believes the Allocated Value of the Lease, Well or undeveloped location has been increased by the Additional Interest and the computations upon which such party’s belief is based, which amount must be equal to or greater than $25,000 net to Sellers’ interest. The Purchase Price shall not be adjusted for value of any Addition Interest until the aggregate value of all Additional Interests equals or exceeds the Title Defect Deductible and in such event the increase in the Purchase Price shall be the aggregate amount of Additional Interests that exceed the Title Defect Deductible.

Asset Purchase Agreement between	Proprietary and Confidential
Colfax Exploration Partners I, LLC and Xxxxxxx Resources, Inc.	Intended for Addressee Only

(ii) The Indemnifying Party may, upon written notice to the Indemnified Person, assume control of the defense of such Third Person Claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person; provided that (a) the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Person in writing within 30 days after the Indemnified Person has given notice of the Third Person Claim that the Indemnifying Party will indemnify the Indemnified Person from and against the Damages the Indemnified Person may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the Third Person Claim (subject to the provisions of this Article VIII); (b) the ad damnum, if any, is less than or equal to the amount of Damages for which the Indemnifying Party is liable under this Article VIII; (c) the Indemnifying Party provides the Indemnified Person with evidence acceptable to the Indemnified Person that the Indemnifying Party will have the financial resources to defend against the Third Person Claim and fulfill its indemnification obligations hereunder; (d) the Third Person Claim does not involve criminal liability and seeks only money damages and not equitable relief against the Indemnified Person; (e) settlement of, or an adverse judgment with respect to, the Third Person Claim is not, in the good faith judgment of the Indemnified Person, likely to establish a precedential custom or practice adverse to the continuing business interests or the reputation of the Indemnified Person, and (f) the Indemnifying Party conducts the defense of the Third Person Claim actively and diligently.

(iii) If the Indemnifying Party does not, or is not permitted under the terms of this Agreement to, so assume control of the defense of a Third Person Claim, the Indemnified Person shall control such defense.

(v) The Indemnifying Party shall not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any Third Person Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that the consent of the Indemnified Person shall not be required if the Indemnifying Party agrees in writing to pay any amounts payable under such settlement or judgment and such settlement or judgment includes a complete release of the Indemnified Person from further liability and has no other adverse effect on the Indemnified Person.

If the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of the Third Person Claim or the initial 30-day period in which the Indemnifying Party may elect to assume the defense has not yet run, the Indemnified Person shall not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such Third Person Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(c) During the 30-day period following the delivery of a Response that reflects a Dispute, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Person shall use good faith efforts to resolve the Dispute. If the Dispute is not resolved within such thirty (30)-day period, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Person shall discuss in good faith the submission of the Dispute to binding arbitration, and if the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Person agree in writing to submit the Dispute to such arbitration, then the provisions of Section 8.3(d) shall become effective with respect to such Dispute. The provisions of this Section 8.3(c) shall not obligate the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Person to submit to arbitration or any other alternative dispute resolution procedure with respect to any Dispute, and in the absence of an agreement by the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Person to arbitrate a Dispute, such Dispute shall be resolved in a state or federal court sitting in Dallas, Texas, in accordance with Section 11.15.
