Exhibit 10.02
LETTER AGREEMENT
This letter agreement is entered into by and between Mid-Power Resource
Corporation, a Nevada Corporation ("MPRC") and Xxxxxx Xxxx Xxxxx and/or his
designees ("Xxxxx") this 1st day of August, 2002.
Xxxxx has previously presented to MPRC his initial opportunity to participate in
the Lakeside Prospect in Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Loisiana. As a result, MPRC has
entered into a letter agreement dated August 1, 2002, with Petrogulf III L.L.C.,
a copy of said letter agreement is attached hereto and made a part hereof,
regarding the drilling and completing of the Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx #1 well located in
the SE/4 of Section 11, T 12 S, R 4 W, Lakeside Prospect, Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx,
Louisiana. Petrogulf as operator, is now drilling and will attempt to drill said
well to an approximate total depth of 17,000 feet to the Xxxxx Xxxxx Formation.
The purpose of this letter agreement is to evidence an agreement by and between
MPRC and Xxxxx, whereby MPRC shall immediately pay to Petrogulf the sum of
$983,025.09 for a 25% working interest in the above well. MPRC shall carry Xxxxx
and/or his designee(s) for 35.5% of this 25% working interest free and clear
through the tanks or pipeline ready to sell oil and/or gas. It is understood and
agreed by the parties hereto that the total 25% working interest equates to
approximately 18.25% net revenue (Xxxxx 8.875% WI and 6.47875% NRI and MPRC
16.125% WI and 11.77125% NRI) until payout in the above Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx #1 well
and producing unit. After payout is reached the parties hereto will jointly own
approximately 21.25% working interest and approximately 15.5% net revenue
interest (Xxxxx 7.54375% WI and 5.5025% NRI and MPRC 13.70625% WI and 9.9975%
NRI).
Should there be any xxxxx, including the Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx #1 well, drilled,
worked over or recompleted, or leases acquired on the above mentioned Lakeside
Prospect, MPRC agrees to carry Xxxxx, for the same percentages as described
above, free through the tanks or pipelines ready to sell oil and/or gas on the
same basis mentioned herein.
MPRC and Xxxxx hereby agree to treat this Letter Agreement as a Tax Partnership
and further agree that all allowable tax deductions generated by this venture
shall be allocated to the party whose funds have been used to pay such costs.
Further, it is understood and agreed to by the parties hereto, that in the event
additional funds exceeding the above $983,025.09 are needed to drill and
complete the said Xxxxxxxxx well ready to produce oil and/or gas, MPRC will be
obligated to pay 100% of such amount, so Xxxxx' interest is carried free through
the tanks or pipeline ready to sell oil and/or gas. However, should any of the
above funds be refunded by Petrogulf, such funds shall belong to MPRC.
It is agreed by the parties hereto that a fully executed fax copy of this
Agreement shall be deemed the same as a fully executed original Agreement.
This letter agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
parties hereto, their respective legal representatives, heirs and assigns.
In witness whereof, the Parties have signed this letter agreement effective as
of the date set forth above.
