11.           Post-Closing Obligations of Buyer.  After the Closing, the Buyer covenants and agrees to do the following:

(a)           Buyer or its designee shall assume all obligations of Sellers under the Leases for all periods from and after the date of Closing, including the obligation to timely pay all annual rental payments thereafter due under all Leases. Buyer or its designee shall, at least thirty (30) days in advance of a rental payment due date (15 days in advance of a rental payment due date if the Buyer Note is paid in full), pay any and all annual rental amounts due and owing under the Leases, and shall promptly provide the Sellers with written notice and document(s) evidencing the payment of such annual rental payments.

(b)           Promptly after the final payment due on the Buyer Note payable to Sellers as executed and delivered pursuant to Section 9(b) above, the Buyer shall provide the Sellers with written instructions as to whether the Assignments to be executed and delivered by the Sellers with respect to the Leases are to be issued into the name of the Buyer or a Buyer’s designee together with all applicable information necessary to complete said Assignments. If Buyer fails to provide such written instructions within three (3) weeks after the final payment made on the Buyer Note, the Sellers shall be authorized to execute and deliver the Assignments with respect to the Leases into the name of only the Buyer.

(c)           After the Buyer receives Assignments from the Sellers with respect to the Leases as provided for in subsection (b) above, the Buyer agrees to continue to pay annual rental amounts due on any and all of the Leases and to provide written notice and evidence of such payments to the Sellers not later than fifteen (15) days prior to the rental payment due date. If the  Buyer has not paid the annual rental amount on any Lease within fifteen (15) days prior to the rental payment due date, then Sellers (or any one of the Sellers) shall have the right, but not the obligation, to pay the annual rental amount(s) due on the subject Lease(s) and, in the event of Sellers payment of any such rental amount(s), Sellers shall provide written notice and evidence of such payment to Buyer, and Buyer shall be specifically obligated to execute and deliver to Sellers, or their designee(s), within seven (7) days of Buyer’s receipt of Sellers’ notice, four (4) original sets of Assignments of the subject Leases to the Sellers, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances except the overriding royalties created by this Agreement, such Assignment to be on a DNR approved form and reasonably acceptable to Sellers or their designee(s). In the event that Buyer fails to timely deliver to the Sellers the appropriate Assignments of the Lease(s) as required under this subsection, Buyer shall be obligated to pay Sellers, as liquidated damages, $100.00 per day for each day the Buyer is obligated but fails to execute and deliver the required assignments. The foregoing per day amount payable to Sellers shall be considered liquidated damages by the parties as it is agreed that actual damages to Sellers for Buyer’s failure to execute and deliver the assignment are difficult to ascertain with certainty and that the payment provided herein is a reasonable estimate of such damages.

(d)           In the event that any of the Leases terminate due to Buyer’s failure to pay annual rentals in accordance with Sections 11(a) and 11(c), and Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer, directly or indirectly, acquires an interest in all or any portion(s) of any reconfigurations of land described in the subject Leases in the first State of Alaska oil and gas lease sale after termination, whether or not all of said lands are offered in the same lease sale, then Buyer hereby covenants and agrees to transfer to the Sellers (in the proportions of twenty five percent (25%) to Donkel and seventy five percent (75%) to Cade) an aggregate two percent (2%) overriding royalty interest in such lease(s). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, this shall be the sole and exclusive remedy to Sellers related to any terminated Leases as referenced herein. For purposes of this Agreement, “Affiliate” shall mean, with respect to a Party, any company or legal entity which (i) controls either directly or indirectly such Party, (ii) which is controlled directly or indirectly by such Party, or (iii) is directly or indirectly controlled by a company or entity which directly or indirectly controls such Party.  “Control” means the right to exercise fifty percent (50%) or more of the voting rights in the appointment of the directors, members or similar governing body of such company.

(e)           During the period from Closing until the date on which the Buyer Note is paid in full, the Buyer covenants and agrees, unless specifically waived, or consented to, by Sellers in writing, as follows: (i) Buyer will not sell, farmout, encumber, lease, transfer, license, grant an option to purchase or preferential purchase right with respect to, dispose of, or otherwise burden or grant additional overriding royalty interests on any of the Leases; and (ii) Buyer shall promptly notify Sellers upon receipt of notice of any dispute or claim relating to any of the Leases.

(f)            Upon written request made by Sellers while the Buyer Note remains unpaid, the Buyer shall promptly (in no event more than thirty (30) days from receipt of the written request) execute and deliver to the Sellers such documents or instruments which secures payment of the Buyer Note (including, without limitation, a Mortgage, security agreement or other collateral document), in form and substance satisfactory to Sellers, and shall perform all such acts and things as Sellers may from time to time reasonably request or as may be necessary or appropriate to establish and maintain a mortgage and/or collateral or security interest in and to ADL 392131, 392133 or 392134 for the benefit and use of the Sellers and to secure payment of the Buyer Note.

(g)           The Buyer agrees to execute, acknowledge (where applicable) and deliver to, or cause to be executed, acknowledged (where applicable) and delivered to, Allen & Vellone, P.C., as escrow agent under the Document Escrow Agreement executed by the parties, four (4) copies of new, replacement Assignments as referenced in Section 9(d) above.  These new Assignments shall be executed, acknowledged and delivered by Buyer in intervals of no more than every 75 days until the Buyer Note is fully paid. The new Assignments shall replace the last set of Assignments executed and delivered pursuant to this subsection. The parties acknowledge and agree that this provision is intended to insure that Assignments held in escrow are always in current approved form and that the Assignments have been executed by Buyer within the last 90 days in compliance with applicable Alaska Division of Oil & Gas policies and procedures. In the event that Buyer fails to timely deliver to the Sellers the appropriate new Assignments as required under this subsection, Buyer shall be obligated to pay Sellers, as liquidated damages, $100.00 per day for each day the Buyer is obligated but fails to execute and deliver the required assignments. The foregoing per day amount payable to Sellers shall be considered liquidated damages by the parties as it is agreed that actual damages to Sellers for Buyer’s failure to execute and deliver the assignment are difficult to ascertain with certainty and that the payment provided herein is a reasonable estimate of such damages.
 
 
12.           Post-Closing Obligations of Sellers.  After the Closing, the Sellers covenant and agree to do the following:

(a)           Upon release from the escrow account to them of the Assignments executed and delivered by Buyer pursuant to Section 9(d) above, the Sellers shall hold such Assignments until the earlier of: (i) the date when all amounts due under the Buyer Note have been paid in full, or (ii) the date when an event of default by the Buyer exists under the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Upon an event occurring under subsection (i) herein, the Sellers shall either destroy the subject Assignments and provide written notice to Buyer of destruction of the subject Assignments, or return the subject Assignments to the Buyer. Upon an event occurring under subsection (ii) herein, the Sellers shall have the right to deliver and file the subject Assignments with the Division of Oil and Gas, Department of Natural Resources of the State of Alaska, as if such Assignments had been executed and delivered by Buyer as required by the provisions of Section 14(b)(i)(aa) below and thereby cause the re-conveyance from the Buyer to the Sellers of the ownership rights in and to all of the subject Leases referenced in such Assignments.  If for any reason the Division of Oil and Gas, Department of Natural Resources of the State of Alaska will not file, or otherwise refuses to file, the subject Assignments held by Sellers as provided for herein, the Buyer shall continue to be obligated to comply with, and abide by, the terms and provisions of Section 14(b)(i)(aa) and Section 15(l) below.

13.           Limitation of Liability; Indemnification. If a Seller has properly executed, acknowledged and delivered any and all Assignments attributable to his interest in the Leases and otherwise performed all obligations imposed on him pursuant to this Agreement, the Buyer shall not have any claim or remedy against such Seller. Each Seller (the “Indemnitor”) shall indemnify and hold the other Seller harmless with respect to any claim, damage, liable and cost or expense (including reasonable attorney’s fees) attributable to any act, omission or other conduct of the Indemnitor in connection with this Agreement.
