ARTICLE IV. PAYMENT OF EXCHANGE VALUE; CONTINGENT PAYMENT
SECTION 4.1 PAYMENT OF EXCHANGE VALUE. At the Closing, Buyer will pay to
each Seller the aggregate Exchange Values allocable to the Transaction Assets
owned by such Seller, in cash, by wire transfer of immediately available funds
to the account specified by each such Seller to Buyer prior to Closing. Buyer
shall also pay to each Seller its share of the contingent payment described in
Section 4.2 (the "Contingent Payment"), at the time and in the manner set forth
in Section 4.3.
SECTION 4.2 CONTINGENT PAYMENT. The aggregate amount of the Contingent
Payment payable to the Sellers in the aggregate will be calculated by Buyer on
the 30th day following the Closing Date (the "Calculation Date") and shall be
equal to the lesser of (A) the Closing Escrow Deposit and (B) the product of (i)
13,554,728, MULTIPLIED BY (ii) the amount, if any, by which (x) the Average
NYMEX Price per MMBtu of gas exceeds (y) $2.10 per MMBtu of gas. The Average
NYMEX Price will be determined based upon the closing prices of the New York
Mercantile Exchange ("NYMEX") Natural Gas futures contracts for delivery in each
of the calendar months January through December 1997 (each contract for delivery
in a particular calendar month being herein called a "Contract"). The price for
each Contract for which trading has closed on or prior to the Calculation Date
will be equal to the closing price with respect to such Contract on the last day
on which such Contract was traded on the NYMEX (e.g., the price for the January
1997 Contract is equal to the closing price on the last trading day in December
1996 of the NYMEX January 1997 Natural Gas futures contract). The actual prices
of Contracts for January, February and March, 1997, are $4.00, $2.99 and $1.78,
respectively. The price
12
for each Contract for which trading has not closed on or prior to the
Calculation Date will be equal to the average of the closing prices with respect
to such Contract on each of the days on which such Contract is traded on the
NYMEX between the Closing Date and the Calculation Date (e.g., assuming the
Closing Date is April 30, 1997, the price for the December 1997 Contract will be
equal to the average of the closing prices on each trading day beginning May 1
and ending May 29, 1997, for the NYMEX December 1997 Natural Gas futures
contract). The "Average NYMEX Price" will be equal to the quotient of (A) the
sum of the prices for the January through December 1997 Contracts, DIVIDED BY
(B) twelve (12).
SECTION 4.3 ESCROW DEPOSITS.
(a) Contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement, Buyer
will deposit $10,000,000.00 (the "Deposit") in an interest bearing escrow
account (the "Signing Escrow Account") with Bank One, Texas, N.A. (the
"Escrow Agent"). In the event the Transactions are consummated in
accordance with the terms hereof, the Deposit, together with interest
thereon, shall be applied first to the Closing Escrow Deposit, and the
remainder shall be paid to Buyer in order that Buyer may apply such
amounts to the payments required to be made by Buyer to Sellers at the
Closing. In the event that the Transactions fail to close for reasons
other than a breach by any Institutional Seller of any of its obligations
under this Agreement, the failure of a Type 5 Investor to receive all
consents and other actions required by Section 7.3(b)(ii) or the failure
of Sellers' Financial Advisor to deliver the fairness opinion required by
Section 7.3(b)(iii), the entire amount of the Deposit, together with
interest thereon, shall be disbursed and paid to the Sellers, pro-rata in
accordance with the ratio the Exchange Value as of July 1, 1996 of each
such Seller bears to the aggregate Exchange Value of all Sellers as of
such date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, upon the
Escrow Agent's receipt of written instructions to such effect signed by a
duly authorized officer of Buyer and each of the Institutional Sellers. In
the event this Agreement is terminated by Buyer because of a breach by any
Institutional Seller of any of its obligations under this Agreement, the
failure of a Type 5 Investor to receive all consents and other actions
required by Section 7.3(b)(ii) or the failure of Sellers' Financial
Advisor to deliver the fairness opinion required by Section 7.3(b)(iii),
then the entire amount of the Deposit, together with interest thereon,
shall be released to Buyer upon the Escrow Agent's receipt of written
instructions to such effect signed by a duly authorized officer of Buyer
and each of the Institutional Sellers. Torch and each of the Institutional
Sellers agree that any amounts received from Bellwether pursuant to this
Section 4.3(a) in the event the Transactions do not close shall not be
taken into account in determining "payout" with regard to any
Institutional Program. THE PARTIES HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE EXTENT OF
DAMAGES TO SELLERS OCCASIONED BY THE FAILURE OF THE TRANSACTIONS TO BE
CONSUMMATED WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE OR EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO ASCERTAIN AND
THAT THE AMOUNT OF THE DEPOSIT IS A FAIR AND REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF SUCH
DAMAGES UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES AND DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A PENALTY.
(b) At the Closing, Buyer will deposit $9,011,853.00 (the "Closing
Escrow Deposit") in an interest bearing escrow account (the "Closing
Escrow Account") with the Escrow Agent to secure payment of the Contingent
Payment. On the Calculation Date, an amount equal to the Contingent
Payment calculated under Section 4.2 will be released from the Closing
Escrow Account and paid to the Sellers participating in the Transactions,
in accordance with each such Seller's
13
share of such Contingent Payment as set forth below, by wire transfer of
immediately available funds. Each Seller's share of the Contingent Payment
shall be calculated by determining the Exchange Value which would have
been paid to such Seller if the Contingent Payment were added to the
$188,347,731 purchase price and such amount were allocated among the
Sellers using the procedures employed to allocate the Exchange Value set
forth on Exhibit A. The balance of the principal amount of the Closing
Escrow Deposit, if any, shall be paid to Buyer by wire transfer of
immediately available funds simultaneous with the payments to Sellers. If
a person identified as a Seller on Exhibit A does not participate in a
Transaction, the Contingent Payment allocable to such Seller with respect
to the assets not transferred will be paid to Buyer. Interest on the
Closing Escrow Deposit will be disbursed from the Closing Escrow Account
and paid to Buyer and each of the Sellers participating in the
Transactions pro rata based upon the principal amount of the Closing
Escrow Deposit distributed to each of them. Buyer and Sellers' Financial
Advisor shall certify the amount of the Contingent Payment and Torch and
Sellers' Financial Advisor shall certify each Seller's share thereof to
the Escrow Agent promptly after it is calculated.

discounted at 10%, of future net cash flows of the oil and gas reserves
attributable thereto, as of July 1, 1996, equal to at least 95% of the pre-tax
present value, discounted at 10%, of future net cash flows of oil and gas

the General Partner interest in TEAI VIII-B will be paid to Bellwether.
(v) This Section 10.12(b) will not effect Bellwether's, Buyer's and
