TERMS OF THE COMPROMISE AND SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT
The foregoing prefatory language is incorporated herein as substantive
terms hereof as if fully restated herein.
1. COMMON OBLIGATIONS OF ERHC
TO COCONINO, PVE, UGO, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
▇.] ERHC has previously issued 500,000 shares of its common capital
stock as part performance of its obligations to purchase certain properties
under the purchase agreement between the Purchaser and Sellers dated September
29, 1997, which contained an SEC Rule 144 Restriction. Certificates for 250,000
shares were issued on October 13, 1997, representing the first installment under
the aforesaid contract and certificates for additional 250,000 shares were
issued December 30, 1997. The aforesaid certificates on each of the two
installments were issued in the proportions specified in the aforesaid purchase
agreement for the installment made at the closing of the purchase agreement as
follows:
12.5% of 99% (30,937.5 shares) to UOG 37.5% of 99% (92,812.5 shares) to
PVE 50.0% of 99% (123,750 shares) to COCONINO
1.0% (2,500 shares) to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
The aforesaid agreement further provided that ERHC guaranteed that each
such share issued would have a net trading value as of the earliest date when
pursuant to the legend and SEC Rule 144 such share would become tradable for at
least $2.00 per share. In the event that the net price for any of the shares
would be less that the guaranteed amount, the Sellers in the aforesaid agreement
at their option could accept sufficient additional SEC Rule 14 shares of ERHC
common capital stock to make up the shortfall, or could demand cash for such
shortfall.
[i] The parties have agreed that the value of the shares as of October
16, 1998, was $0.45 resulting in a $1.55 shortfall as of that date on the first
250,000 previously issued. ERHC agrees to cause this shortfall in the price of
the first 250,000 issued to the parties in the proportions mentioned hereinabove
to be paid and satisfied by the issuance and delivered on January 18, 1999
(effective as of October 16, 1998) of additional shares of SEC Rule 144 common
capital stock aggregating 861.111 shares. The selling parties have accepted this
option of payment of the calculated shortfall of 387,500 in the guaranteed
trading value of the 250,000 shares on October 16, 1998 in lieu of cash.
Additionally ERHC will cause its SEC counsel, Mintmire & Associates, Attn: ▇▇.

issue an opinion letter authorizing the transfer agent to lift the Rule 144
restrictive legend from the 250,000 shares previously issued on October 16, 1997
upon presentation to SEC counsel of a copy of the SEC Form 144. Seller's
Representation Letter and Broker's Rule 144 Compliance letter relative to the
transfer of such shares.
[ii] The second installment paid to Sellers by Purchaser consisting of
250,000 shares of common capital stock with a legend contain SEC Rule 144
Restriction dated December 30, 1997, has a shortfall in the guaranteed price as
of December 30, 1998. It is agreed among the parties hereto that the common
capital stock closed on December 30, 1998 at a price of thirty-two (.32) cents.
It is agreed between the parties that the shortfall in the price of the second
250,00 issued to the parties in the proportions mentioned hereinabove is to be
paid and satisfied by the issuance and delivery on January 18, 1999 (affective
as of December 30, 1998) of additional shares of SEC 144 restricted capital
stock aggregating 1,312,500 shares. The selling parties and commission agent
have accepted this option of payment of the calculated shortfall of $420,000 in
the guaranteed minimum trading value of the 250,000 shares on December 30, 1998
in lieu of cash. Additionally ERHC will cause its SEC counsel, Mintmire &
Associates, Attn: ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇,
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ to issue an opinion letter authorizing the transfer agent to lift
the Rule 144 restrictive legend from the 250,000 shares previously issued on
December 30, 1997 upon presentation to SEC counsel of a copy of the SEC Form
144. Seller's Representation Letter and Broker's Rule 144 Compliance letter

[iii] On January 18, 1999, ERHC shall cause to be issued and delivered

mentioned in the purchase agreement of September 29, 1997, the balance of

of SEC Rule 144 restriction, but the same shall be issued so that the shares and
effective date for Rule 144 holding period purposes commences on March 30, 1998
for 250,000 shares and June 30, 1998 for the final 250,000 shares. The shares
issued pursuant to this paragraph shall have the registration rights set forth
in Paragraph 3 of the terms and conditions of this compromise and settlement
agreement.
[iv] On January 18, 1999, should there exist any shortfall in the
guaranteed price for the 500,000 shares of capital stock to be issued in
accordance with Paragraph 1(A)[iii] above, and its average market value (as
defined hereinafter), such shortfall shall be made up with the issuance and
delivery on January 18, 1999 of additional shares of common stock in ERHC in the
same proportions to the Sellers and ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, the commission agent,
with an SEC Rule 144 Restriction contained in the legend of said certificates.

closing price using the dates of 1/11/99, 1/12/99, 1/13/99 1/14/99 and 1/15/99,
excluding the highest and lowest of such closing price.
[v] It is understood by and between all parties hereto that upon

as of any date of trading by the holders thereof shall have been terminated and
satisfied in full by ERHC other than as set forth herein.

Five Hundred ($2,500) Dollars. If AAA does not refund ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ his AAA filing
fees of Seven Hundred Fifty Dollars ($750) by the date of signing by the parties
hereto and closing of the final settlement agreement, then ERHC will reimburse
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ said $750 and no more by bank check (and ERHC shall thereupon be
assigned any right of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ to receive such refund from AAA, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall
endorse and deliver to ERHC any such refund that he may subsequently receive
from AAA).
[ii] ERHC will, upon the date of signing by the parties hereto and closing
of the final settlement agreement, issue and deliver two unsecured promissory

2. SEPARATE OBLIGATIONS OF ERHC
TO UINTA OIL & GAS, INC., and
▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
The Agreement to Purchase between ERHC, COCONINO, PVE AND UINTA dated
September 29, 1997 provided for ERHC to pay to an escrow account the sum of
$250,000 in certified, immediately available funds for the benefit of UNITA to
pay certain of its creditors. The source of the payment to this escrow account
by ERHC was to come from certain funding transactions in progress at the time of
the said agreement which did not close. ERHC was further to reserve in favor of
UINTA from the assignment of all of the Sellers' collective interest in
twenty-two (22) oil, gas and mineral leases a four percent (4%) overriding
royalty interest on the gross production receipts from said leases up to a
maximum sum of $677,000. As a consideration of this compromise and settlement
agreement and without which the same would not have been made, ERHC, UINTA and
▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agree as follows:
A.] ERHC shall cause to be issued to UINTA from its authorized capital
stock, common capital stock in lieu of $125,000 cash, which shares shall have
the registration rights set forth in Paragraph 3 of the terms and conditions of
this compromise and settlement agreement, and shall cause to issued to UINTA
additional common capital stock with an SEC Rule 144 restriction in lieu of the
remaining $125,000 cash consideration. The number of shares to be issued shall
be determined by the average closing price on the market quoted for the five
trading days preceding January 18, 1999, (i.e. 1/11/99, 1/12/99, 1/13/99,
1/14/99 and 1/15/99) with elimination of the highest and lowest prices quoted.
The average market value calculated for the stock shall then be
divided into the sum of $250,000 to determine the actual number of free trading
and restricted stock to be issued of said shares as soon as practical following
January 18, 1998 or the signing of the final compromise and settlement agreement
by the parties and closing of the same which ever shall last occur.
B.] UNITA will cause to be assigned to ERHC, in the form approved by
its counsel, all overriding royalty interest (4% of gross production revenues)
in the 22 oil, gas and mineral leases previously assigned to ERHC by UNITA
located in Uintah and Duchesne Counties, Utah. ERHC will cause to be issued to
UNITA restricted (SEC Rule 144 Stock) common capital stock in ERHC having a
value of $677,000 as determined by the average market price under the same terms
and conditions as the restricted stock issued under the preceding paragraph. The
number of shares to be issued shall be determined by the average closing price
on the market quoted for the five trading days preceding January 18, 1999, (i.e.
1/11/99, 1/12/99, 1/13/99, 1/14/99 and 1/15/99) with elimination of the highest
and lowest prices quoted. The average market value calculated for the stock
shall then be divided into the sum of $677,000 to determine the actual number of
restricted stock t be issued in accordance with the terms of this paragraph of
the agreement. This capital stock would be placed in an escrow for the benefit
of UNITA and its creditors whose names and respective amounts due each were
annexed to the purchase agreement dated September 29, 1997. Withdrawals for
satisfaction of creditors would require the joint authorization of ERHC and
UINTA. Should the total of indebtedness be satisfied by payment of stock or its
proceeds, said transfer or sale shall be conducted in accordance with SEC Rule
144. Should the total of indebtedness be satisfied by payment of stock or its
proceeds in an amount less than the total of $677,000, the difference will be
released to UINTA and such transfer or sale shall be conducted in accordance
with SEC Rule 144.
C.] ERHC agrees to replace and release UINTA from all performance or
indemnity bonds which remain outstanding on the properties affected by this
settlement agreement including but not limited to the BLM bond and the twelve
mile wash property and will provide UNITA with proof of such replacement bonds
and release of UINTA as soon as practical following execution of the settlement
agreement by all parties and the closing of the final settlement agreement which
shall be no longer than thirty (30) days following closing. Furthermore, ERHC
agrees to hold UINTA harmless from any liability on such bonds presently
outstanding. In regard to the well on the twelve mile wash lease, which was lost
due to nonpayment of the lease obligation, the same would be bonded by ERHC
within thirty (30) days of the execution of the compromise and settlement
agreement by the parties and closing of the final settlement agreement. ERHC
agrees to hold harmless from all liability for required environmental
remediation services. ERHC will provide UINTA with proof of the bonding.
D.] In regard to the field office building, purchased by ERHC from
▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ individually, ERHC agrees to assume the then
existing debt of approximately $30,000, plus a transfer of 24,000 free trading
shares of common stock of ERHC. At the time the transfer of capital stock was to
take place, the market value thereof was approximately $70,000 or $2.92 per
share. The purchase price for the field office was to be $100,000. The shares
were to be in a proportion of 60% to ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and 40% to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇.
These transfers did not occur until March of 1998 when the market value of said
shares had dropped to $1.20 per share. ERHC will cause to be issued shares of
its common capital stock, which shares shall have the registration rights set
forth in Paragraph 3 of the terms and conditions of this proportions set forth
herein to make up the shortfall of the value of shares issued in the gross
amount of $41,200.
The number of shares to be issued shall be determined by the average closing
price on the market quoted for the five trading days preceding January 18, 1999,
(i.e. 1/11/99, 1/12/99, 1/13/99, 1/14/99 and 1/15/99) with elimination of the
highest and lowest prices quoted. The average market value calculated for the
stock shall then be divided into the sum of $41,200 to determine the final
number of shares to be issued to ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇.
E.] ERHC will reimburse UINTA for any court costs or filing fee paid by
it in the lawsuit filed in the Eighth District Court, Uintah County, Utah in

principal sum of $10,000 to be utilized as reimbursement of attorney fees paid
by them collectively to their attorney of record. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇, P.C. The note
will be non interest bearing until its maturity and then only at six (6%) and
shall become due six months from its date.

current amount of $9,000 by transfer of common capital stock in ERHC, which
shares shall have the registration rights set forth in Paragraph 3 of the terms
and conditions of this compromise and settlement agreement in lieu of cash

closing price on the market quoted for the five trading days preceding January
