2.4 Effective Time.

(a) Subject to this Section 2.4, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be effective as of May 1, 2013 at 12:01 a.m. Central Time (the “Effective Time”).

(b) Buyer shall be entitled to all Hydrocarbon production from or attributable to the Leases, Units and ▇▇▇▇▇ at and after the Effective Time (and all products and proceeds attributable thereto), and to all other income, proceeds, receipts and credits earned with respect to the Assets at and after the Effective Time, including, without limitation, delay rentals, shut-in royalties, and lease bonuses, and shall be responsible for (and entitled to any refunds and indemnities with respect to) all Property Costs incurred at and after the Effective Time. Except as set forth to the contrary herein, Seller shall be entitled to all Hydrocarbon production from or attributable to Leases, Units and ▇▇▇▇▇ prior to the Effective Time (and all products and proceeds attributable thereto), and to all other income, proceeds, receipts and credits earned with respect to the Assets prior to the Effective Time, and shall be responsible for (and entitled to any refunds with respect to) all Property Costs incurred prior to the Effective Time. The terms “earned” and “incurred”, as used in this Agreement, shall be interpreted in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and Counsel of Petroleum Accountants Societies standards. For purposes of this Section 2.4, determination of whether Property Costs are attributable to the period before or after the Effective Time shall be based on when services are rendered, when the goods are delivered, or when the work is performed. For clarification, the date an item or work is ordered is not the date of a pre-Effective Time transaction for settlement purposes, but rather the date on which the item ordered is delivered to the job site, or the date on which the work ordered is performed, shall be the relevant date. For purposes of allocating Hydrocarbon production (and accounts receivable with respect thereto including royalties and overriding royalties payable to the owner of the Assets), under this Section 2.4, (i) liquid Hydrocarbons shall be deemed to be “from or attributable to” the Leases, Units and ▇▇▇▇▇ when they pass through the pipeline connecting into the storage facilities into which they are run, or, if there is no such facility, the applicable LACT meters through which they are run, and (ii) gaseous Hydrocarbons shall be deemed to be “from or attributable to” the Leases, Units and ▇▇▇▇▇ when they pass through the delivery point sales meters on the pipelines through which they are transported. Seller shall utilize reasonable interpolative procedures to arrive at an allocation of Hydrocarbon production when exact meter readings or gauging and strapping data is not available. Taxes, right-of-way fees, insurance premiums and other Property Costs that are paid periodically shall be prorated based on the number of days in the applicable period falling before, and the number of days in the applicable period falling at or after, the Effective Time, except that Hydrocarbon production, severance and similar Taxes shall be prorated based on the number of units actually produced, purchased or sold or proceeds of sale, as applicable, before, and at or after, the Effective Time. In each case, Buyer shall be responsible for the portion allocated to the period at and after the Effective Time and Seller shall be responsible for the portion allocated to the period before the Effective Time. After Closing, each Party shall be entitled to participate in all joint interest audits and other audits of Property Costs for which such Party is responsible or revenues to which such Party is entitled (whether entirely or in part) pursuant to this Section 2.4(b) or Section 10.2. All adjustments and payments made pursuant to this Section 2.4(b) and Section 10.2 shall be without duplication of any other amounts paid or received under this Agreement.

2.5 Maintenance of Records. Buyer, or its successors or assigns, for a period of seven (7) years following Closing, will (a) retain the Records, (b) provide Seller, its Affiliates, and its and their officers, employees and representatives with access to the Records during normal business hours for review and copying at Seller’s sole cost and expense, and (c) provide Seller, its Affiliates, and its and their officers, employees and representatives with access, during normal business hours, access, at Seller’s sole cost, risk and expense, to materials received or produced after Closing relating to any Indemnity Claim made under Section 13.6 of this Agreement for review and copying.

4.2 Physical Access to the Leases and ▇▇▇▇▇. Prior to Closing, during reasonable business hours, Seller agrees to grant Buyer physical access to the Properties to allow Buyer to conduct, at Buyer’s sole risk and expense, onsite inspections and environmental assessments of the Properties.

The indemnifying Party shall be obligated to defend, at the indemnifying Party’s sole expense, any litigation or other administrative or adversarial proceeding against the indemnified Party relating to any matter for which the indemnifying Party has agreed to indemnify and hold the indemnified Party harmless under this Agreement.

No supplement, amendment, alteration, modification or waiver of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by the Parties and specifically referencing this Agreement and identified as a supplement, amendment, alteration, modification or waiver.

15.4 Disclosure Schedules. The disclosure of any matter or item in any schedule hereto shall not be deemed to constitute an acknowledgment that any such matter is required to be disclosed. Matters may be disclosed on a schedule to this Agreement for purposes of information only. Disclosure of any matter under one schedule shall be deemed disclosure of that matter under any other schedules to the extent reasonably ascertainable on the face of such disclosure. From time to time prior to Closing, Seller shall have the right (but not the obligation) to supplement or amend the schedules hereto, after notice to Buyer, with respect to any matter hereafter arising or of which it becomes aware after the date hereof, which, if existing, occurring or known at the date of this Agreement, would have been required to be set forth or described in the schedules (each a “Schedule Supplement”), and each such Schedule Supplement shall be deemed to be incorporated into and supplement and amend the schedules as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date.

15.5 Waiver. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provisions hereof (whether or not similar), nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided.

15.6 Publicity. The Parties hereto shall consult with each other prior to issuing any public announcement or statement with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and shall give the other Party the opportunity to provide comments to such public announcement or statement, unless such announcement or statement is required by applicable law or stock exchange requirements.

15.7 No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as provided in Sections 4.2, 13.3 and 13.4, nothing in this Agreement shall provide any benefit to any third Person or entitle any third Person to any claim, cause of action, remedy or right of any kind, it being the intent of the Parties that this Agreement shall otherwise not be construed as a third party beneficiary contract.

15.8 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder may be assigned, by operation of law otherwise, by any Party without the prior written consent of the other Parties, and any attempted assignment without such consent shall be void.

15.9 Governing Law. This Agreement, other documents delivered pursuant hereto and the legal relations between the Parties shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Oklahoma, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law that would result in the application of the laws of another jurisdiction. The Parties hereto irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Oklahoma and the federal courts of the United States of America located in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma over any dispute between the Parties arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, and each Party irrevocably agrees that all such claims in respect of such dispute shall be heard and determined in such courts (except to the extent a dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or in connection with a determination of Purchase Price adjustments pursuant to Section 10.3(b) is referred to an expert pursuant to such Section). The Parties hereto irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which they may now or hereafter have to the venue of any dispute arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby being brought in such court or any defense of inconvenient forum for the maintenance of such dispute. Each Party agrees that a judgment in any such dispute may be enforced in other jurisdictions by a suit on the judgment or any other manner provided by law. THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY AGAINST ANOTHER PARTY IN ANY MATTER WHATSOEVER ARISING OUT OF OR IN RELATION TO OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT.

Any notice, communication, request, instruction or other document by any party to another required or permitted hereunder shall be given in writing and delivered in person or sent by U.S. Mail postage prepaid, return receipt requested, overnight courier or facsimile to the addresses of Seller and Buyer set forth below.
