· Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by Borrowers hereunder or under the Notes shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future Taxes. If Borrowers shall be required by any Requirement of Law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under the Notes to Lenders, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.10) Lenders receive an amount equal to the sum they would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) Borrowers shall make such deductions, and (iii) Borrowers shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, Borrowers agree to pay any Other Taxes.

This indemnification shall be made within five (5) days from the date any Lender makes written demand therefor. Lenders shall reasonably cooperate with Borrowers to obtain a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes that were incorrectly withheld or paid (which for the avoidance of doubt shall not include an obligation on Lenders to request any information from or request any action to be taken by its beneficial owners) and Lenders shall pay such refund to Borrowers within 30 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes, Borrowers will furnish to Administrative Agent at its address for notices set forth on Appendix I, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.

(e) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of each Borrower contained in this Section 2.10 shall survive the termination of the commitments under this Agreement and the payment in full of the Obligations.

· Sharing of Payments.

If any Lender shall obtain on account of the Obligations, any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) or receive any Collateral in respect thereof in excess of the amount such Lender was entitled to receive pursuant to the terms hereof, such Lender shall immediately (a) notify Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Loans made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment according to the terms hereof; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender, such purchase shall, to that extent, be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. Borrowers agree that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of Borrowers in the amount of such participation. Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this Section 2.11 and will in each case notify Lenders following any such purchases or repayments.

All notices, permits, licenses, and similar authorizations, if any, required to be obtained or filed in connection with the ownership or operation of any and all real and personal property owned, leased or operated by any Loan Party, including notices, licenses, permits and authorizations required in connection with any past or present treatment, storage, disposal, or release of Hazardous Substances into the environment, have been duly obtained or filed except to the extent the failure to obtain or file such notices, licenses, permits and authorizations would not have or would not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. All Hazardous Substances, if any, generated at any and all real and personal property owned, leased or operated by any Loan Party have been transported, treated, and disposed of only by carriers maintaining valid permits under all Environmental Laws, and, to such Loan Party’s actual knowledge, the same is true as to periods of time prior to such Loan Party’s ownership, lease or operation. There have been no Hazardous Discharges by any Loan Party which were not in compliance with Environmental Laws other than Hazardous Discharges which would not, individually or in the aggregate, have or be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and, to such Loan Party’s actual knowledge, the same is true as to any Hazardous Discharge on any real and personal property owned, leased or operated by any Loan Party during periods of time prior to such Loan Party’s ownership, lease or operation of such property. No Loan Party has actual knowledge of any contingent liability in connection with any Hazardous Discharges which could have or be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

ARTICLE IX.

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

· Appointment and Authorization.

Each Lender hereby irrevocably (subject to Section 9.09) appoints, designates and authorizes Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, Administrative Agent shall have only such duties or responsibilities, as expressly set forth herein, Administrative Agent shall not have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against Administrative Agent.

· Delegation of Duties.

Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects with reasonable care.

· Liability of Administrative Agent.

Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of the Agent-Related Persons shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (b) be responsible in any manner to any Lender or any Affiliate of any Lender for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by any Loan Party or any Affiliate of a Loan Party, or any officer thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness (other than the Administrative Agent’s or such Agent-Related Person’s own due execution and delivery), genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of any Loan Party or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party or any Affiliate of any Loan Party.

· Reliance by Administrative Agent.

(a) Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, electronic mail, facsimile, telex or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by Lenders and their Affiliates against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of Lenders and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all Lenders.

(b) For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 4.01, each Lender that has made available to Borrowers its Pro Rata Share of the Maximum Loan Amount shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter either sent by Administrative Agent to such Lender for consent, approval, acceptance or satisfaction, or required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to Lender as a condition precedent to such Loans, as applicable.

· Notice of Default.

Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, unless Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or Borrowers referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. Administrative Agent will notify Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. Subject to Subsection 9.04(a), Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by any Lender; provided, however, that unless and until Administrative Agent has received any such request, Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of Lenders.

· Credit Decisions.

Each Lender acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of the Agent-Related Persons has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by Administrative Agent or any Agent-Related Person hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of Borrowers, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent or any Agent-Related Person to any Lender. Each Lender represents to Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent or any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrowers, and all applicable bank regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to Borrowers hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent or any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to Lenders by Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of Borrowers which may come into the possession of Administrative Agent or any of the Agent-Related Persons.

· Indemnification.

Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, Lenders and any Affiliates of Lenders shall indemnify upon demand Administrative Agent and Agent-Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrowers and without limiting the obligation of Borrowers to do so), pro rata according to each respective Lender’s Pro Rata Share, Administrative Agent and each Agent-Related Person from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities INCLUDING SUCH INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES AS MAY ARISE OR BE CAUSED BY THE NEGLIGENCE, SOLE, JOINT, CONCURRENT, COMPARATIVE OR OTHERWISE OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR SUCH AGENT-RELATED PERSONS; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to Administrative Agent or any Agent-Related Persons of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities to the extent the same arise from (i) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Administrative Agent or any Agent-Related Person or (ii) a claim or action asserted by Administrative Agent or one or more Agent-Related Persons. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse Administrative Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including attorney costs) incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of Borrowers. The undertaking in this Section 9.07 shall survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder and the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent.

· Administrative Agent in Individual Capacity.

Spindrift Partners, L.P. is Administrative Agent hereunder solely for administrative purposes and has no commitment, other than in its capacity as Lender hereunder, to lend to Borrowers under the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the above, Administrative Agent, in its individual capacity, may from time to time engage in any kind of activity with Borrowers or any Affiliate thereof as though Administrative Agent were not Administrative Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of Lenders. Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Administrative Agent or its Affiliates may receive information regarding Borrowers (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of Borrowers) and acknowledge that Administrative Agent and the Agent-Related Persons shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Loans, Administrative Agent, in its individual capacity as Lender, shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not Administrative Agent.

· Successor Administrative Agent.

Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon thirty (30) days notice to Lenders. If Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement, Lenders, with the consent of the Borrowers, shall appoint from among Lenders a successor administrative agent in the same capacity as the retiring Administrative Agent for Lenders. If no successor administrative agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of such retiring Administrative Agent, such retiring Administrative Agent may appoint, with the consent of the Borrowers and after consulting with Lenders, a successor administrative agent from among Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor administrative agent hereunder, such successor administrative agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor administrative agent and the retiring Administrative Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article IX and Sections 10.05 and 10.06 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no successor administrative agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent in the same capacity as the retiring Administrative Agent by the date which is 30 days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent shall either withdraw its resignation or may appoint as a successor administrative agent a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof.

· No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.

No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of Administrative Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

The agreements in this Section shall survive payment of all other Obligations.

· Environmental Indemnification.

In addition to the indemnifications hereunder and under any other Loan Documents, the Loan Parties, jointly and severally, shall indemnify, protect and hold each Indemnified Person harmless from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, proceedings, costs, expenses (including, without limitation, all attorneys’ fees and legal expenses whether or not suit is brought) and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against such Indemnified Person, with respect to or as a direct or indirect result of the violation by any Loan Party of any Environmental Law; or with respect to or as a direct or indirect result of any Loan Party's use, generation, manufacture, production, storage, release, threatened release, discharge, disposal or presence in connection with the Mortgaged Properties of a hazardous substance including, without limitation, (a) all damages of any such use, generation, manufacture, production, storage, release, threatened release, discharge, disposal or presence, or (b) the costs of any reasonably required or necessary environmental investigation, monitoring, repair, cleanup or detoxification and the preparation and implementation of any closure, remedial or other plans (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Environmental Liabilities”).

It shall not be a defense to the indemnification obligations set forth in this Section 10.06 that the act, omission, event or circumstance did not constitute a violation of any Environmental Law at the time of its existence or occurrence.

· Successors and Assigns

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Loan Party may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Majority Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign or sell participations in all, or any ratable part of, the Loans and the other rights and obligations of such Lender hereunder to one or more of its Affiliates and/or to one or more Related Funds. No Lender may assign or sell participations in all, or any ratable part of, the Loans and the other rights and obligations of such Lender hereunder to any party other than its Affiliates or Related Funds without the written consent of Borrowers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Lenders shall at all times be entitled to transfer and/or assign their respective Overriding Royalty Interests and their rights or obligations under their respective ORRI Conveyance, provided, however, that Lenders shall be responsible for any costs, expenses or fees attributable to any such transfer and/or assignment of their respective Overriding Royalty Interests and their rights or obligations under their respective ORRI Conveyance.

(b) In the case of a sale of a participation as permitted by Section 10.07(a) to one or more Persons (each a “Participant”), the selling Lender remains a “Lender” under the Loan Documents, the Participant does not become a “Lender” under the Loan Documents, and the selling Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents remain unchanged. The selling Lender remains solely responsible for the performance of its obligations and remains the holder of its share of the outstanding Loans for all purposes under the Loan Documents. Borrowers and Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with the selling Lender in connection with that Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, and each Lender must retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce due Obligations of Borrowers and/or any other Loan Party. Participants have no rights under the Loan Documents except certain voting rights as provided below. Subject to the following, each Lender may obtain (on behalf of its Participants) the benefits of Sections 2.09 and 2.10 with respect to all participations in its part of the Obligations outstanding from time to time so long as Borrowers are not obligated to pay any amount in excess of the amount that would be due to that Lender under Sections 2.09 and 2.10 calculated as though no participations have been made. No Lender may sell any participating interest under which the Participant has any rights to approve any amendment, modification, or waiver of any Loan Document except in respect of any such amendment, modification or waiver described in Section 10.01(a) or 10.01(b). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant shall also be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.04 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.11 as though it were a Lender.

(c) Any assignment made by a Lender pursuant to Section 10.07(a) shall be evidenced by an assignment and assumption agreement in form and substance acceptable to Administrative Agent (which shall receive a copy thereof), and, except in the case of an assignment of the entire amount of the assignor Lender’s Loan at the time owing to it, the amount of the Loan so assigned shall not be less than $100,000 unless each of Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, each Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). The “effective date” in each such assignment and assumption agreement must (unless a shorter period is agreeable to Borrowers and Administrative Agent) be at least five (5) Business Days after it is executed and delivered by the assignor Lender and the assignee to Administrative Agent and Borrowers for acceptance. Once that assignment and assumption agreement is accepted by Administrative Agent and Borrowers, then, from and after the “effective date” stated in it (1) assignee automatically becomes a party to this Agreement and, to the extent provided in that assignment and assumption agreement, has the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, (2) the assignor Lender, to the extent provided in that assignment and assumption agreement, is released from its obligations under this Agreement and, in the case of an assignment and assumption agreement covering all of the remaining portion of the assignor Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, that Lender ceases to be a party to the Loan Documents, (3) Borrowers shall execute and deliver to the assignor Lender and the assignee the appropriate Notes in accordance with this Agreement following the transfer, and upon delivery of such Notes, the assignor Lender shall return to Borrowers all Notes previously delivered to that Lender under this Agreement, and (4) Appendix I is automatically deemed to be amended to reflect the name, address, fax number, and Pro Rata Share of the assignee, and Administrative Agent shall prepare and circulate to Borrowers and Lenders an amended Appendix I reflecting those changes.

· Interest.

(a) It is the intention of the parties hereto to comply with applicable usury laws; accordingly, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, the Notes or in any of the other Loan Documents securing the payment hereof or otherwise relating hereto, in no event shall this Agreement, the Notes or such other Loan Documents require the payment or permit the payment, taking, reserving, receiving, collection, or charging of any sums constituting interest under applicable laws, if any, which exceed the maximum amount permitted by such laws. If any such excess interest is called for, contracted for, charged, taken, reserved, or received in connection with the Loans evidenced by the Notes or in any of the Loans Documents securing the payment thereof or otherwise relating thereto, or in any communication by Administrative Agent, Lenders or any other person to a Borrower or any other person, or in the event all or part of the principal or interest thereof shall be prepaid or accelerated, so that under any of such circumstances or under any other circumstance whatsoever the amount of interest contracted for, charged, taken, reserved, or received on the amount of principal actually outstanding from time to time under the Notes shall exceed the maximum amount of interest permitted by applicable usury laws, then in any such event it is agreed as follows: (i) the provisions of this paragraph shall govern and control, (ii) neither Borrowers nor any other person or entity now or hereafter liable for the payment and performance of the Obligations shall be obligated to pay the amount of such interest to the extent such interest is in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted by applicable usury laws, (iii) any such excess which is or has been received notwithstanding this paragraph shall be credited against the then unpaid principal balance of the Notes or, if the Notes have been or would be paid in full, refunded to Borrowers, and (iv) the provisions of this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents securing the payment hereof and otherwise relating hereto, and any communication to Borrower, shall immediately be deemed reformed and such excess interest reduced, without the necessity of executing any other document, to the Highest Lawful Rate allowed under applicable laws as now or hereafter construed by courts having jurisdiction hereof or thereof. Without limiting the foregoing, all calculations of the rate of the interest contracted for, charged, taken, reserved, or received in connection with the Notes or this Agreement which are made for the purpose of determining whether such rate exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate shall be made to the extent permitted by applicable laws by amortizing, prorating, allocating and spreading during the period of the full term of the Loans, including all prior and subsequent renewals and extensions, all interest at any time contracted for, charged, taken, reserved, or received. The terms of this paragraph shall be deemed to be incorporated in every document and communication relating to the Notes, the Loans or any other Loan Document.

(b) If the Contract Rate exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, then the Contract Rate shall be limited to the Highest Lawful Rate, but any subsequent reductions in the Contract Rate shall not reduce the interest rate thereon below the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of accrued interest equals the amount of interest that would have accrued if Contract Rate had always been in effect. If at the Termination Date the total interest paid or accrued is less than the interest that would have accrued if the Contract Rate had always been in effect, then, at that time and to the extent permitted by law, Borrowers shall pay an amount equal to the difference between: (i) the lesser of the amount of interest that would have accrued if the Contract Rates had always been in effect and the amount of interest that would have accrued if the Highest Lawful Rate had always been in effect; and (ii) the amount of interest actually paid or accrued on the Notes.

(c) To the extent that the interest rate laws of the State of Texas are applicable to the Loans, the applicable interest rate ceiling is the indicated (weekly) ceiling from time to time in effect under Texas Finance Code §303.001, as limited by Texas Finance Code §303.009, and to the extent that this Agreement is deemed an “open end account” as such term is defined in Texas Finance Code §301.002(a)(14), Lenders retain the right to modify the interest rate in accordance with applicable law.

· Counterparts and Facsimile Signatures.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an original, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute but one and the same instrument. The Loan Documents may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile or “pdf”. The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to applicable law, have the same force and effect as manually-signed originals and shall be binding on all Loan Parties; Administrative Agent and any Lender may also require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a manually-signed original thereof; provided, however, that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any facsimile or “pdf” document or signature.

· Severability

The illegality or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder shall not in any way affect or impair the legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder.

· Third Party Beneficiaries

This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are made and entered into for the sole protection and legal benefit of the Loan Parties, Administrative Agent and Lenders, and their permitted successors and assigns, and no other Person shall be a direct or indirect legal beneficiary of, or have any direct or indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

· USA Patriot Act Notice

Lenders hereby notify the Loan Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), they are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Loan Parties, which information includes the name and address of the Loan Parties and other information that will allow Lenders to identify the Loan Parties in accordance with the Act.

· Governing Law

Except as expressly otherwise set forth in any Loan Document, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be governed by, construed and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, except to the extent that federal laws of the United States of America apply.

· Submission to Jurisdiction

With respect to any and all disputes arising hereunder, or under the Notes, the Security Documents, the other Loan Documents, or any of the other instruments and documents executed in connection herewith or therewith not settled, each Loan Party, Administrative Agent and Lenders hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

(a) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement, the Notes and any document to which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect of any thereof, to the non-exclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York, the courts of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York, and appellate courts from any thereof;

(b) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts, and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court (except to the extent applicable rules of procedure provide venue lies exclusively in another jurisdiction), or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same;

(c) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form and mail), postage prepaid, to it at its address specified in Appendix I hereof;

(d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to ▇▇▇ in any other jurisdiction;

(e) agrees that service upon it or its authorized agent shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, constitute valid and effective personal service upon it, as the case may be, and that the failure of any such authorized agent to give any notice of such service to it shall not impair or affect in any way the validity of such service or any judgment rendered in any action or proceeding based thereon; and

(f) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection, including any objection to the laying of venue or based on the grounds of forum non conveniens, which it may now or hereafter have to the bringing of any action or proceeding in such jurisdiction in respect of this agreement or any document related hereto.

· Waiver Of Jury Trial

Each Loan Party waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, its rights to a trial by jury of any claim or cause of action based upon or arising out of or related to this Agreement, the Notes, the Security Documents, the other Loan Documents, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, in any action, proceeding or other litigation of any type brought by any of the parties against any other party or any Indemnified Person, or assignee thereof, whether with respect to contract claims, tort claims, or otherwise. Each Loan Party, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, agrees that any such claim or cause of action shall be tried by a court trial without a jury. Without limiting the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Loan Party further agrees that its respective right to a trial by jury is waived by operation of this Section as to any action, counterclaim or other proceeding which seeks, in whole or in part, to challenge the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any provision hereof or thereof. This waiver shall apply to any subsequent amendments, renewals, supplements or modifications to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

· Amendment and Restatement

The parties hereto agree that as of Closing: (a) the Obligations (as defined in this Agreement) represents, among other things, the restatement, renewal, amendment, extension, and modification of the “Obligations” (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement); (b) this Agreement is intended to, and does hereby, restate, renew, extend, amend, modify, supersede, and replace the Existing Credit Agreement in its entirety; (c) the Notes executed pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement remain in full force and effect to evidence the Obligations; (d) the Security Documents executed pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement remain in full force and effect to secure the Obligations; (e) each Guaranty executed pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement remains in full force and effect to guaranty the Obligations; and (f) the entering into and performance of their respective obligations under this Agreement (and any other Loan Document executed in connection herewith) and the transactions evidenced hereby (and thereby, as applicable) do not constitute a novation nor shall they be deemed to have terminated, extinguished, or discharged the “Obligations” under the Existing Credit Agreement or the other Existing Loan Documents (or the collateral security therefor), all of which “Obligations” and Collateral shall continue under and be governed by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, except as provided otherwise herein.

· Entire Agreement.

This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, embodies the entire agreement and understanding among the Loan Parties, Administrative Agent and Lenders and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements and understandings of such Persons, verbal or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof.

· Obligations Several.

The obligations of Lenders hereunder are several and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations of any other Lender. Nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document, and no action taken by Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute Lenders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity. The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt, and each Lender shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights hereunder and it shall not be necessary for any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

· Taxes - Allocation

The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (1) the Loan and the Overriding Royalty Interests constitute an “investment unit” as set forth in Section 1273 of the Code; (2) as soon as practicable after the Closing the parties hereto shall reasonably cooperate in allocating the $25,000,000.00 loan amount between the Loan and the Overriding Royalty Interests in accordance with their relative fair market values as required by Section 1273 of the Code; and (3) they will be bound by this allocation for all tax purposes pursuant to Treasury Regulation § 1.1273-2(h).

· General Release.

Borrowers hereby remise, release, acquit, satisfy and forever discharge Administrative Agent and Lenders, their respective agents, employees, officers, directors, attorneys and all others acting or purporting to act on behalf of or at the direction of Administrative Agent or Lenders, of and from any and all manner of actions, causes of action, suit, debts, accounts, covenants, contracts, controversies, agreements, variances, damages, judgments, claims and demands whatsoever, in law or in equity, which any of such parties ever had, now have or can, shall or may at any time have against GasRock Capital LLC and which Borrowers, by reason of the assignment effected pursuant to the Assignment Agreement, would purport to make or claim against Administrative Agent or Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrowers waive and affirmatively agree not to allege or otherwise pursue against Administrative Agent or Lenders any defenses, affirmative defenses, counterclaims, claims, causes of action, setoffs or other rights such party does, shall or may have as of the date hereof, against GasRock Capital LLC, including, but not limited to, the rights to contest: (a) the right of Administrative Agent or Lenders to exercise their respective rights and remedies described in this Agreement or any Loan Document; (b) any provision of this Agreement or any Loan Document; (c) the Liens granted by the Loan Documents; or (d) any conduct of Administrative Agent or Lenders.
