	In the event any Well is completed in two or more zones producing Crude Oil and the production therefrom is segregated and accounted for separately in accordance with the Regulations, the Overriding Royalty shall be quantified separately for each zone producing Crude Oil rather than upon the total production from such Well.
	If Crude Oil is produced from more than one formation in a single Well, Grantor shall be obligated to test the Well at least once each quarter during the term of this Agreement in order to determine the rate of production of Crude Oil from each such formation and to advise Royalty Owner in writing of the results of such test.

10.	POOLING OR UNITIZATION

a. Grantor shall have the authority to pool the Petroleum Substances in a zone underlying all or a portion of the Lands to the extent required to form a spacing unit in such zone, but only if such pooling allocates to that portion of the Lands included in the spacing unit that proportion of the total production of Petroleum Substances from the spacing unit which the surface area of that portion of the Lands placed in the spacing unit bears to the total surface area of the spacing unit. Grantor shall thereafter give written notice to Royalty Owner describing the extent to which the Lands are being pooled and describing the spacing unit with respect to which they are so pooled.

b. If Grantor wishes to pool, unitize or otherwise combine any portion of the Lands with any other lands other than as provided in Clause 10 hereof, Grantor shall promptly send notice to Royalty Owner of such intention, together with the technical justification for such pooling, unitization or combination and the proposed terms thereof, provided that Grantor shall not be required to provide interpretative data to Royalty Owner. Unless otherwise required by the Regulations to form a spacing unit, Grantor shall not enter into that pooling, unitization or combination without obtaining the prior written consent of Royalty Owner, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

c. If all or any portion of the Lands is pooled, unitized or combined (which combination allocates Petroleum Substances to the Lands) with any other lands pursuant to Article 10, Clause (a ), the Overriding Royalty shall be quantified on that percentage of Petroleum Substances allocated to such Lands pursuant to that pooling, unitization or combination.

11.	MONTHLY STATEMENTS

By the last day of each month, beginning with the first month following the month in which production of Petroleum Substances from the Lands is obtained after the date hereof, Grantor shall submit to Royalty Owner a statement showing the quantity and kind of Petroleum Substances produced, deemed to be produced or allocated to, saved and sold or used from the Lands in the immediately preceding calendar month, together with a quantification of Royalty Owner’s share of Petroleum Substances for such immediately preceding calendar month. When Royalty Owner does not take and separately dispose of its share of Petroleum Substances, the said statement shall also include the sale price for such Petroleum Substances and the gross proceeds received therefrom, accompanied by a cheque payable to Royalty Owner for its share of such proceeds.

12.	BOOKS AND RECORDS

a. Grantor shall keep true and current books, records, vouchers and accounts showing the quantity of Petroleum Substances produced from or allocated to the Lands and the sales and disposition made thereof from time to time. The books, records, vouchers and accounts maintained by Grantor shall be open to inspection at all reasonable times during business hours by any officer, agent or employee appointed or authorized by Royalty Owner, on fifteen (15) days’ written notice of Royalty Owner’s intention to examine the same.

b. Royalty Owner, upon notice to Grantor, shall have the right to audit Grantor’s accounts and records for any given calendar year, insofar as they relate to any matter or item relating to this Agreement bearing on the Overriding Royalty, within the twenty-four (24) month period following the end of that calendar year. Any payment made or statement rendered by Grantor hereunder which is not disputed by Royalty Owner on or before the last day of the twenty-sixth (26th) month following the end of that calendar year shall be deemed to be correct.

13.	INTEREST IN LAND AND SECURITY

a. The Overriding Royalty shall be secured by a lien, first charge and security interest (the “Lien”) on the Working Interest of Grantor in the Lands and in the Petroleum Substances within, upon or under the Lands or produced from, deemed to be produced from or allocated to the Lands, and the ▇▇▇▇▇ and equipment thereon.

b. Both the Overriding Royalty and the Lien shall be interests in land and shall run with the Lands. The Lien shall arise forthwith upon the execution of this Agreement.

14.	DEFAULT AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION

a. The Parties will attempt to resolve any dispute arising under this Agreement through consultation and negotiation in good faith. If those attempts fail, the applicable Parties will then attempt to resolve that dispute through mediation, with costs of mediation being shared equally by those Parties. However, any Party to that dispute may terminate the mediation at any time upon reasonable notice to the other Parties. If a dispute arises under a provision of this Agreement that makes specific reference to this Clause, a Party must refer that dispute to arbitration for resolution pursuant to the provisions of the Arbitration Act of the Province of Alberta, as amended, after the terminated mediation. Otherwise, a Party may, if it so chooses, resort to judicial proceedings to resolve the dispute after the terminated mediation.

b. Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 14, Clause (a ) hereof, if Grantor fails at any time and from time to time to account to Royalty Owner for the Overriding Royalty, Royalty Owner may, thirty (30) days following receipt or deemed receipt by Grantor of notice from Royalty Owner specifying such default, and without limiting Royalty Owner’s other rights at law or in equity:

c. treat the default as an immediate and automatic assignment to Royalty Owner of the proceeds of the sale of Grantor’s share of Petroleum Substances produced from, deemed to be produced from or allocated to the Lands and require the purchaser of Grantor’s share of Petroleum Substances to make payment therefor to Royalty Owner while the default continues; and

d. take possession of all or any part of the interest of Grantor in the Lands or in all or any part of the production of Petroleum Substances produced from, deemed to be produced from or allocated to the Lands or the equipment thereon; and Royalty Owner may sell and dispose of any such interest, production or equipment of which it has so taken possession either in whole or in part, in separate parcels at public auction or by private tender, at such times and on whatever terms it shall arrange, having first given notice to Grantor of the time and place of the sale. The proceeds of the sale shall be first applied by Royalty Owner in payment of the Overriding Royalty which is owing to Royalty Owner, and any balance remaining shall be paid to Grantor after deducting reasonable costs of the sale including, without limitation, losses incurred in making the Petroleum Substances marketable and any transportation costs. Any sale made as aforesaid shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against Grantor and its assigns and against all other persons claiming the Lands or any part or parcel thereof sold as aforesaid by, from, through or under Grantor or its assigns.

e. Service of a copy of this Agreement upon a purchaser of Petroleum Substances, together with written notice from Royalty Owner, shall constitute a written, irrevocable direction by Grantor to any purchaser of Petroleum Substances to pay to Royalty Owner the proceeds from any sale or sales of Petroleum Substances up to the amount owed to Royalty Owner by Grantor, and such purchaser is authorized to rely upon the statement of Royalty Owner as to the amount owed by Grantor to Royalty Owner.

be liable to Royalty Owner for all losses, costs, damages and expenses whatsoever (whether contractual or tortious) which Royalty Owner may suffer, sustain, pay or incur; and
