Dear Xx.
Xxxxxxx:
When
executed on behalf of Daybreak Oil and Gas, Inc. (“Daybreak”), in the space
provided below, this letter shall constitute an amendment to that certain
Purchase and Sale Agreement dated as of January 15, 2008 (the “Agreement”),
between Daybreak and Lasso Partners, LLC (“Lasso”), for the sale of the
interests of Daybreak to Lasso in the Tensas River Farms Project in Tensas and
Franklin Parishes, Louisiana. Daybreak and Lasso are sometimes
collectively referred to herein as the “Parties”, and individually as a
“Party”. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have
the same meaning assigned thereto in the Agreement.
The
Agreement contemplates the acquisition by Lasso of the entire interest of
Daybreak Oil and Gas, Inc., in the Assets, as defined therein, in two
transactions for a total unadjusted Purchase Price of Eight Million Dollars
($8,000,000.00). The First Transaction was closed on January 18,
2008, at which Lasso delivered to Daybreak an installment of the Purchase Price
equal to Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00), and Daybreak delivered to Lasso
the First Conveyance of twenty five percent (25%) of Daybreak’s interest in the
Assets. The Second Transaction is presently scheduled to close on or
before April 30, 2008.
By this
letter, the Parties agree that the Second Transaction shall be closed in two
stages. There shall be an intermediate closing (the “Intermediate
Closing”) on April 30, 2008, at which Lasso shall deliver to Daybreak an
installment of the Purchase Price equal to Five Hundred Thousand Dollars
($500,000.00), and in which Daybreak shall deliver to Lasso a conveyance of the
form attached hereto as Exhibit “A”,
assigning to Lasso an undivided 8.33333% of Daybreak’s remaining interest in the
Assets (i.e., 6.25% of the interest in the Assets which Daybreak held when the
Agreement was signed).
All of
the representations and warranties of the Parties set forth in Articles 4
and 5 of the Agreement, all of the covenants of the Parties set forth in
Article 6 of the Agreement, and all of the conditions to the Second Closing
which are set forth in Article 7, Sections 7.3 and 7.4 of the
Agreement shall be equally applicable to the Intermediate
Closing. The Intermediate Closing shall take place at 10:00 a.m. on
April 30, 2008, at the offices of Lasso, unless otherwise agreed by the
Parties.
The
Agreement is amended to extend the deadline for the Second Closing until
May 31, 2008. Section 2.1 of the Agreement is amended to
reflect that the Second Closing Payment for the Assets conveyed pursuant to the
Second Transaction shall be Five Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars
($5,500,000.00), adjusted as provided in Section 2.3 of the
Agreement. Section 8.5 of the Agreement is amended by replacing
references to April 30, 2008, with the date May 31, 2008.
Daybreak
agrees that if requested by Lasso, the sum of One Hundred Thousand Dollars
($100,000.00) out of the Second Closing Payment shall be placed in escrow at the
Second Closing. The escrow shall extend for a period of sixty (60)
days after the Second Closing, and is for the express purpose of satisfying any
mechanics or contractor’s liens, encumbrances, outstanding taxes or other title
defects against the Assets which may be discovered during the escrow
period. At the end of the escrow period, the escrow amount, less any
portion thereof which may have been used to discharge any encumbrance, shall be
released to Daybreak.
Section 11.4
of the Agreement is also amended to reflect the change in the address of Lasso
for notice purposes as follows:
