Within two (2) Business Days after receipt of the Preliminary Settlement Statement, Buyer shall deliver to Seller a written report containing all changes that Buyer proposes to be made to the Preliminary Settlement Statement together with the explanation therefor and the supporting documents thereof. The Parties shall in good faith attempt to agree on the Preliminary Settlement Statement as soon as possible after Seller’s receipt of Buyer’s written report. The Preliminary Settlement Statement, as agreed upon by the Parties, will be used to adjust the Purchase Price at Closing; provided that if the Parties do not agree upon an adjustment set forth in the Preliminary Settlement Statement, then the amount of such adjustment used to adjust the Purchase Price at Closing shall be that amount set forth in the draft Preliminary Settlement Statement delivered by Seller to Buyer pursuant to this Section 3.5.

3.6 Final Settlement Statement.

(a) On or before one-hundred twenty (120) days after Closing, a final settlement statement (the “Final Settlement Statement”) will be prepared by Seller, based on actual income and expenses during the Interim Period and which takes into account all final adjustments made to the Purchase Price and shows the resulting final Purchase Price (the “Final Price”). The Final Settlement Statement shall set forth the actual proration of the amounts required by this Agreement. Seller shall provide Buyer at Buyer’s reasonable request access to all supporting documentation used by Seller to arrive at its calculation of the Final Price contained in the Final Settlement Statement prepared by Seller. As soon as practicable, and in any event within thirty (30) days, after receipt of the Final Settlement Statement, Buyer shall return to Seller a written report containing any proposed changes to the Final Settlement Statement and an explanation of any such changes and the reasons therefor (the “Dispute Notice”). If Buyer fails to timely deliver a Dispute Notice to Seller containing changes Buyer proposes to be made to the Final Settlement Statement, the Final Settlement Statement as delivered by Seller will be deemed to be correct and will be final and binding on the Parties and not subject to further audit or arbitration. If the Final Price set forth in the Final Settlement Statement is mutually agreed upon by Seller and Buyer, the Final Settlement Statement and the Final Price, shall be final and binding on the Parties. Any difference in the Adjusted Purchase Price as paid at Closing pursuant to the Preliminary Settlement Statement and the Final Price shall be paid by the owing Party within ten (10) days of final determination of such owed amounts in accordance herewith to the owed Party. All amounts paid pursuant to this Section 3.6 shall be delivered in United States currency by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified in writing by the relevant Party.

(b) Notwithstanding payment of the Final Price pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.6(a), (i) if either Party receives monies (including proceeds of production) belonging to the other Party pursuant to Section 2.3 or otherwise, then such monies shall, within five (5) Business Days after the end of the month in which they were received, be paid over by the receiving Party to the owed Party, (ii) if either Party pays monies for Operating Expenses that are the obligation of the other Party pursuant to Section 2.3 or otherwise, then the obligated Party shall, within five (5) Business Days after the end of the month in which the applicable invoice and proof of payment of such invoice are received by it, reimburse the paying Party therefor, (iii) if either Party receives an invoice of an expense or obligation that is owed by the other Party pursuant to Section 2.3 or otherwise, then the receiving Party shall promptly forward such invoice to the obligated Party and (iv) if an invoice of an expense or other obligation is received by either Party and is the obligation of both Parties, then the Parties shall consult with each other and shall each promptly pay its portion of such invoice to the obligee. Each Party shall be permitted to offset any monies owed by it to the other Party pursuant to this Section 3.6 against amounts owing by it to such other Party pursuant to this Section 3.6.

3.7 Disputes. If Seller and Buyer are unable to resolve the matters addressed in the Dispute Notice within ten (10) Business Days after the delivery of such Dispute Notice, the matters shall be exclusively and finally resolved by arbitration pursuant to this Section 3.7. There shall be a single arbitrator, who shall be an accountant experienced in oil and gas accounting matters, as selected by mutual agreement of Buyer and Seller within ten (10) Business Days after delivery of such Dispute Notice, and absent such agreement, by the Houston, Texas office of the American Arbitration Association (the “Accounting Arbitrator”). The arbitration proceeding shall be held in Houston, Texas and shall be conducted in accordance

 

7


with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, to the extent such rules do not conflict with the terms of this Agreement. The Accounting Arbitrator’s determination shall be made within twenty (20) days after submission of the matters in dispute and shall be final and binding upon the Parties, without right of appeal, and enforceable against any of the Parties in any court of competent jurisdiction. The costs of such Accounting Arbitrator shall be borne one-half by Buyer and one-half by Seller.

3.8 Allocation of Purchase Price; Allocated Values. Buyer and Seller agree that the Purchase Price shall be allocated among the Assets as set forth on Schedule 3.8 (the “Allocated Values”).

information memorandum, reports, brochures, charts or statements prepared by Seller or Third Parties with respect to the Assets, (viii) any other materials or information that may have been made available to Buyer or its Affiliates, or its or their respective employees, agents, consultants, attorneys, advisors or other representatives in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any discussion or presentation relating thereto and (ix) any implied or express warranty of freedom from patent or trademark infringement. Except as and to the limited extent expressly represented otherwise in Article IV or Section 11.1(b) and the Assignment, Seller further disclaims any representation or warranty, express, statutory, implied or otherwise, of merchantability, freedom from latent vices or defects, fitness for a particular purpose or conformity to models or samples of materials of any of the Assets, rights of a purchaser under appropriate statutes to claim diminution of consideration or return of the Purchase Price, it being expressly understood and agreed by the Parties that Buyer shall be deemed to be obtaining the Assets in their present status, condition and state of repair, “AS IS” and “WHERE IS” with all faults or defects (known or unknown, latent, discoverable or undiscoverable), and that Buyer has made or caused to be made such inspections as Buyer deems appropriate.

(c) Except as and to the limited extent expressly represented otherwise in Article IV, and subject to Article XII, Seller has not and will not make any representation or warranty regarding any matter or circumstance relating to Environmental Laws, the release of materials into the environment or the protection of human health, safety, natural resources or the environment, or other environmental condition of the Assets, and nothing in this Agreement or otherwise shall be construed as such a representation or warranty, and Buyer shall be deemed to be taking the Assets “AS IS” and “WHERE IS” with all faults for purposes of their environmental condition and that Buyer has made or caused to be made such environmental inspections as Buyer deems appropriate.

ARTICLE XI

TITLE MATTERS; CASUALTY; TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS

11.1 Seller’s Title.

(a) General Disclaimer of Title Warranties and Representations. Except for the special warranty of title as set forth in Section 11.1(b) and in the Assignment, and without limiting Buyer’s remedies for Title Defects set forth in this Article XI, Seller makes no warranty or representation, express, implied, statutory or otherwise, with respect to Seller’s title to any of the Assets, and Buyer hereby acknowledges and agrees that Buyer’s sole remedy for any defect of title, including any Title Defect, with respect to any of the Assets (i) before Closing, shall be as set forth in Section 11.2(d) or, if applicable, Section 14.1(c) and (ii) after Closing, shall be pursuant to the special warranty of title set forth in Section 11.1(b) and in the Assignment.

 

25


(b) Special Warranty of Title. If Closing occurs until the end of the Survival Period, Seller warrants Defensible Title to the Leases, Lease Areas and Wells (for a Lease or a Lease Area, as to all depths described on Exhibit A-1, and, for a Well, limited to any currently producing formations) unto Buyer against every Person whomsoever lawfully claims the same or any part thereof by, through or under Seller, but not otherwise, subject, however, to the Permitted Encumbrances; provided, however, that, except with respect to any liability of Seller for any claim asserted in writing by Buyer to Seller in accordance with Section 11.1(c) on or before the expiration of the Survival Period for breach of such special warranty, such special warranty shall cease and terminate at the end of such Survival Period.

(c) Recovery on Special Warranty of Title.

(i) Buyer’s Assertion of Title Warranty Breaches. Prior to the expiration of the period of time commencing as of the Closing Date and ending at 5:00 p.m. (Central Time) on the two (2) year anniversary thereof (the “Survival Period”), Buyer shall furnish Seller a Title Defect Notice meeting the requirements of Section 11.2(a) setting forth any matters which Buyer intends to assert as a breach of Seller’s special warranty in Section 11.1(b). For all purposes of this Agreement, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived, and Seller shall have no further liability for, any breach of Seller’s special warranty that Buyer fails to assert by a Title Defect Notice given to Seller on or before the expiration of the Survival Period. Seller shall have a reasonable opportunity, but not the obligation, to cure any Title Defect asserted by Buyer pursuant to this Section 11.1(c)(i) for a period of sixty (60) days after such Title Defect is asserted. Buyer agrees to reasonably cooperate with any attempt by Seller to cure any such Title Defect.

(ii) Limitations on Special Warranty. For purposes of Seller’s special warranty of title, the value of the Leases, Lease Areas and Wells set forth on Schedule 3.8, as appropriate (for a Lease or a Lease Area, as to all depths described on Exhibit A1, and, for a Well, limited to any currently producing formations), shall be deemed to be the Allocated Value thereof, as adjusted herein. Recovery on Seller’s special warranty of title shall equal the reduction in the Purchase Price to which Buyer would have been entitled had Buyer asserted the Title Defect giving rise to such breach of Seller’s special warranty of title as a Title Defect prior to Closing pursuant to Section 11.2; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, recovery on Seller’s special warranty of title shall not be subject to the Individual Title Defect Threshold or the Aggregate Deductible.

11.2 Notice of Title Defects; Defect Adjustments.

(a) Title Defect Notices. Buyer must deliver no later than 5:00 p.m. (Central Time) on the first Business Day following 35 days from the Execution Date (the “Title Claim Date”) claim notices to Seller meeting the requirements of this Section 11.2(a) (collectively the “Title Defect Notices” and individually a “Title Defect Notice”) setting forth any matters which, in Buyer’s reasonable opinion, constitute Title Defects and which Buyer intends to assert as a Title Defect pursuant to this Section 11.2(a). Except for claims pursuant to the special warranty of title as provided in Section 11.1, for all purposes of this Agreement and notwithstanding

 

26


anything herein to the contrary, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived, and Seller shall have no liability for, any Title Defect which Buyer fails to assert as a Title Defect by a properly delivered Title Defect Notice received by Seller on or before the Title Claim Date. To be effective, each Title Defect Notice shall be in writing and shall include (i) a description of the alleged Title Defect and the Asset, or portion thereof, affected by such Title Defect (each a “Title Defect Property”), (ii) the Allocated Value of each Title Defect Property, (iii) supporting documents reasonably necessary for Seller to verify the existence of such alleged Title Defect, and (iv) the amount by which Buyer reasonably believes the Allocated Value of each Title Defect Property is reduced by such alleged Title Defect and the computations upon which Buyer’s belief is based. To give Seller an opportunity to commence reviewing and curing Title Defects, Buyer agrees to use reasonable efforts to give Seller, on or before the end of each calendar week prior to the Title Claim Date, written notice of all alleged Title Defects (as well as any claims that would be claims under the special warranty set forth in Section 11.1) discovered by Buyer during the preceding calendar week, which notice may be preliminary in nature and supplemented prior to the Title Claim Date. Buyer shall also, promptly upon discovery, furnish Seller with written notice of any Title Benefit which is discovered by Buyer while conducting Buyer’s due diligence with respect to the Assets prior to the Title Claim Date.

(b) Title Benefit Notices. Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to deliver to Buyer on or before the Title Claim Date with respect to each Title Benefit a notice (a “Title Benefit Notice”) including (i) a description of the alleged Title Benefit and the Asset, or portion thereof, affected by such alleged Title Benefit (each a “Title Benefit Property”), (ii) supporting documents reasonably necessary for Buyer to verify the existence of such alleged Title Benefit, and (iii) the amount by which Seller reasonably believe the Allocated Value of such Title Benefit Property is increased by such alleged Title Benefit and the computations upon which Seller’s belief is based. Except as set forth in Section 11.1(c)(ii) and Section 11.2(a), Seller shall be deemed to have waived any Title Benefit which Seller fails to assert as a Title Benefit by a properly delivered Title Benefit Notice received by Buyer on or before the Title Claim Date.

(c) Seller’s Right to Cure. Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to attempt, at its sole cost, to cure at any time prior to one-hundred twenty (120) days after Closing (the “Cure Period”), any Title Defects of which it has been advised by Buyer by notifying Buyer in writing on or before Closing. If Seller notifies Buyer in writing on or before the Closing that it elects to attempt to cure any Title Defect following the Closing, Buyer shall deposit the Title Defect Amount into the Escrow Account, and Seller shall convey the affected Asset to Buyer. During the period of time from Closing to the expiration of the Cure Period, Buyer agrees to afford Seller and its officers, employees, consultants, attorneys, advisors and other authorized representatives reasonable access, during normal business hours, to the Assets and all Records in Buyer’s or any of its Affiliates’ possession in order to facilitate Seller’s attempt to cure any such Title Defects. An election by Seller to attempt to cure a Title Defect shall be without prejudice to its rights under Section 11.2(j) and shall not constitute an admission against interest or a waiver of Seller’s right to dispute the existence, nature or value of, or cost to cure, the alleged Title Defect. With respect to a Title Defect that Seller is unable to cure within the Cure Period, Buyer shall be entitled to retain ownership of the affected Asset and receive the Title Defect Amount from the Escrow Account for such affected Asset together with any interest accrued thereon. If Seller cures the Title Defect to Buyer’s reasonable satisfaction within the Cure Period, Seller shall be entitled to the Title Defect Amount from the Escrow Account for such affected Asset together with any interest accrued thereon.

 

27


(d) Remedies for Title Defects. Subject to Seller’s continuing right to dispute the existence of a Title Defect and the Title Defect Amount asserted with respect thereto, and subject to the rights of the Parties pursuant to Section 14.1(c), in the event that any Title Defect timely and effectively asserted by Buyer in accordance with Section 11.2(a) is not waived in writing by Buyer or cured during the Cure Period, Seller shall, at its sole option, elect to:

(i) subject to the Individual Title Defect Threshold and the Aggregate Deductible, reduce the Purchase Price or Final Price, as applicable, by the Title Defect Amount determined pursuant to Section 11.2(g) or Section 11.2(j); or

(ii) retain the portion of the Title Defect Property that is subject to such Title Defect, together with all associated Assets, in which event the Purchase Price or Final Price, as applicable, shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Allocated Value of such portion of the Title Defect Property and such associated Assets.

(e) Remedies for Title Benefits. With respect to each Title Benefit Property, the Purchase Price shall be increased by an amount (the “Title Benefit Amount”) equal to the increase in the Allocated Value for such Title Benefit Property caused by such Title Benefit, as determined pursuant to Section 11.2(h) or Section 11.2(j).

(f) Exclusive Remedy. Except for Buyer’s rights under Seller’s special warranty of title under Section 11.1(b) and the Assignment and Buyer’s rights to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 14.1(c), the provisions set forth in Section 11.2(d) shall be the exclusive right and remedy of Buyer with respect to Seller’s failure to have Defensible Title with respect to any Asset or any other title matter.

(g) Title Defect Amount. The amount by which the Allocated Value of a Title Defect Property is reduced as a result of the existence of a Title Defect shall be the “Title Defect Amount” and shall be determined, without duplication, in accordance with the following terms and conditions:

(i) if Buyer and Seller agree on the Title Defect Amount, then that amount shall be the Title Defect Amount;

(ii) if the Title Defect is an Encumbrance that is undisputed and liquidated in amount, then the Title Defect Amount shall be the amount necessary to be paid to remove the Title Defect from the Title Defect Property;

(iii) if the Title Defect represents a discrepancy between (A) Seller’s Net Revenue Interest for any Title Defect Property and (B) the Net Revenue Interest set forth for such Title Defect Property on Exhibit A-1 or Exhibit B, then the Title Defect Amount shall be the product of the Allocated Value of such Title Defect Property multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Net Revenue Interest decrease and the denominator of which is the Net Revenue Interest set forth for such Title Defect Property on Exhibit A-1 or Exhibit B;

 

28


(iv) for a Lease Area, in the event that an asserted Title Defect is the actual failure of Seller to own the number of Net Mineral Acres represented on Exhibit A-1 for any such Lease Area, then the Title Defect Amount shall be an amount equal to the Allocated Value of the affected Lease Area multiplied by a fraction, (A) the numerator of which is the difference between (i) the represented aggregate number of Net Mineral Acres covered by the Lease Area, and (ii) the actual aggregate number of Net Mineral Acres covered by such Lease Area, and (B) the denominator of which shall be the represented aggregate number of Net Mineral Acres shown on Exhibit A-1 for such Lease Area;

(v) if the Title Defect represents an obligation or Encumbrance upon or other defect in title to the Title Defect Property of a type not described above, then the Title Defect Amount shall be determined by taking into account the Allocated Value of the Title Defect Property, the portion of the Title Defect Property affected by the Title Defect, the legal effect of the Title Defect, the potential economic effect of the Title Defect over the life of the Title Defect Property, the values placed upon the Title Defect by Buyer and Seller and such other reasonable factors as are necessary to make a proper evaluation; provided, however, that if such Title Defect is reasonably capable of being cured, the Title Defect Amount shall not be greater than the reasonable cost and expense of curing such Title Defect;

(vi) the Title Defect Amount with respect to a Title Defect Property shall be determined without duplication of any costs or losses included in another Title Defect Amount hereunder; and

(vii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article XI, the aggregate Title Defect Amounts attributable to the effects of all Title Defects upon any Title Defect Property shall not exceed the Allocated Value of such Title Defect Property.

(h) Title Benefit Amount. The Title Benefit Amount resulting from a Title Benefit shall be determined in accordance with the following methodology, terms and conditions:

(i) if Buyer and Seller agree on the Title Benefit Amount, then that amount shall be the Title Benefit Amount;

(ii) if the Title Benefit represents a discrepancy between (A) Seller’s Net Revenue Interest for any Title Benefit Property and (B) the Net Revenue Interest set forth for such Title Benefit Property on Exhibit A-1 or Exhibit B, then the Title Benefit Amount shall be the product of the Allocated Value of such Title Benefit Property multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Net Revenue Interest increase and the denominator of which is the Net Revenue Interest set forth for such Title Benefit Property on Exhibit A-1 or Exhibit B; and

 

29


(iii) if the Title Benefit is of a type not described above, then the Title Benefit Amounts shall be determined by taking into account the Allocated Value of Title Benefit Property, the portion of such Title Benefit Property affected by such Title Benefit, the legal effect of the Title Benefit, the potential economic effect of the Title Benefit over the life of such Title Benefit Property, the values placed upon the Title Benefit by Buyer and Seller and such other reasonable factors as are necessary to make a proper evaluation.

(i) Title Defect Threshold and Deductible. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, except with respect to Title Defects for Expired Leases, which are addressed below, (i) in no event shall there be any adjustments to the Purchase Price or other remedies provided by Seller for any individual Title Defect for which the Title Defect Amount does not exceed Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) (the “Individual Title Defect Threshold”); and (ii) in no event shall there be any adjustments to the Purchase Price or other remedies provided by Seller for any Title Defect that exceeds the Individual Title Defect Threshold unless (A) the amount of the sum of (1) the aggregate Title Defect Amounts of all such Title Defects that exceed the Individual Title Defect Threshold (but excluding any such Title Defects cured by Seller), plus (2) the aggregate Remediation Amounts of all Environmental Defects that exceed the Individual Environmental Threshold (but excluding any Environmental Defects cured by Seller), exceeds (B) the Aggregate Deductible, after which point Buyer shall be entitled to adjustments to the Purchase Price or other applicable remedies available hereunder, but only with respect to the amount by which the aggregate amount of such Title Defect Amounts and Remediation Amounts exceeds the Aggregate Deductible. Title Defects for Expired Leases shall not be subject to either the Individual Title Defect Threshold or the Aggregate Deductible, and the Purchase Price will be adjusted from the first dollar of each such Title Defect. For the avoidance of doubt, if Seller retains any Title Defect Property pursuant to Section 11.2(d)(ii), the Title Defect Amount related to such Title Defect Property will not be counted towards the Aggregate Deductible.

(j) Title Dispute Resolution. Seller and Buyer shall attempt to agree on matters regarding (i) all Title Defects, Title Benefits, Title Defect Amounts and Title Benefit Amounts, and (ii) the adequacy of any curative materials provided by Seller to cure an alleged Title Defect (the “Disputed Title Matters”) prior to Closing. If Seller and Buyer are unable to agree by Closing (or by the end of the Cure Period if Seller elects to attempt to cure a Title Defect after Closing), the Disputed Title Matters shall be exclusively and finally resolved pursuant to this Section 11.2(j). There shall be a single arbitrator, who shall be a title attorney with at least ten years’ experience in oil and gas titles involving properties in the regional area in which the Title Defect Properties are located, as selected by mutual agreement of Buyer and Seller within fifteen (15) days after the Closing or the end of the Cure Period, as applicable, and absent such agreement, by the Houston, Texas office of the American Arbitration Association (the “Title Arbitrator”). The Title Arbitrator shall be without any conflicts of interests and shall not have been employed by either Party or its Affiliates within the five (5) year period preceding the submission of the dispute. The arbitration proceeding shall be held in Houston, Texas and shall be conducted in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, to the extent such rules do not conflict with the terms of this Section 11.2(j). The Title Arbitrator’s determination shall be made within twenty (20) days after submission of the matters in dispute and shall be final and binding upon the Parties, without right of appeal. In making its determination, the Title Arbitrator shall be bound by the rules set forth in Section 11.2(g) and Section 11.2(h) and, subject to the foregoing, may consider such other matters as in the opinion of the Title Arbitrator are necessary to make a proper determination. The Title Arbitrator, however, may not award Buyer a greater Title Defect Amount than the Title

 

30


Defect Amount claimed by Buyer in its applicable Title Defect Notice. The Title Arbitrator shall act as an expert for the limited purpose of determining the specific Disputed Title Matter submitted by either Party and may not award damages, interest or penalties to either Party with respect to any matter. Seller and Buyer shall each bear its own legal fees and other costs of presenting its case. Seller and Buyer shall bear one-half of the costs and expenses of the Title Arbitrator. To the extent that the award of the Title Arbitrator with respect to any Title Defect Amount or Title Benefit Amount is not taken into account as an adjustment to the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 3.5 or Section 3.6, then within ten (10) days after the Title Arbitrator delivers written notice to Buyer and Seller of his award with respect to a Title Defect Amount or a Title Benefit Amount and, subject to Section 11.2(i), (i) Buyer shall pay to Seller the amount, if any, so awarded by the Title Arbitrator to Seller, and (ii) Seller shall pay to Buyer the amount, if any, so awarded by the Title Arbitrator to Buyer. Nothing herein shall operate to cause Closing to be delayed on account of any arbitration conducted pursuant to this Section 11.2(j) and, to the extent any adjustments are not agreed upon by the Parties as of Closing, the Purchase Price shall not be adjusted therefor at Closing and subsequent adjustments to the Purchase Price, if any, will be made pursuant to Section 3.6 or this Section 11.2.

11.3 Casualty Loss.

(a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, from and after the Effective Time, if Closing occurs, Buyer shall assume all risk of loss with respect to production of Hydrocarbons through normal depletion (including watering out of any well, collapsed casing or sand infiltration of any well) and the depreciation of Personal Property due to ordinary wear and tear, in each case, with respect to the Assets, and Buyer shall not assert such matters as Casualty Losses or Title Defects hereunder.

(b) If, after the date of this Agreement but prior to the Closing Date, any portion of the Assets is damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty or is taken in condemnation or under right of eminent domain (each, a “Casualty Loss”), and the Closing thereafter occurs, Seller, at Closing, shall pay to Buyer all sums paid to Seller by Third Parties by reason of any Casualty Loss insofar as with respect to the Assets and shall assign, transfer and set over to Buyer or subrogate Buyer to all of Seller’s right, title and interest (if any) in insurance claims, unpaid awards and other rights against Third Parties (excluding any Liabilities, other than insurance claims, of or against any Seller Indemnified Parties) arising out of such Casualty Loss insofar as with respect to the Assets; provided, however, that Seller shall reserve and retain (and Buyer shall assign to Seller) all right, title, interest and claims against Third Parties for the recovery of Seller’s costs and expenses incurred prior to Closing in repairing such Casualty Loss or pursuing or asserting any such insurance claims or other rights against Third Parties.

11.4 Consents to Assign. With respect to each Consent set forth on Schedule 4.4, Seller, reasonably promptly after the execution of this Agreement, shall send to the holder of each such Consent a notice in material compliance with the contractual provisions applicable to such Consent seeking such holder’s consent to the transactions contemplated hereby.

(a) If Seller fails to obtain a Consent set forth on Schedule 4.4 prior to Closing and the failure to obtain such Consent would cause (A) the assignment of the Assets (or portion thereof) affected thereby to Buyer to be void or (B) the termination of a Lease or

 

31


Contract, in each case, under the express terms thereof, then, in each case, the Asset (or portion thereof) affected by such un-obtained Consent shall be excluded from the Assets to be assigned to Buyer at Closing, and the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the Allocated Value of such Asset (or portion thereof) so excluded. In the event that a Consent (with respect to an Asset excluded pursuant to this Section 11.4(a)) that was not obtained prior to Closing is obtained within one-hundred eighty (180) days following Closing, then, within ten (10) days after such Consent is obtained (x) Buyer shall purchase the Asset (or portion thereof) that was so excluded as a result of such previously un-obtained Consent and pay to Seller the amount by which the Purchase Price was reduced at Closing with respect to the Asset (or portion thereof) so excluded and (y) Seller shall assign to Buyer the Asset (or portion thereof) so excluded at Closing pursuant to an instrument in substantially the same form as the Assignment.

(b) If Seller fails to obtain a Consent set forth on Schedule 4.4 prior to Closing and the failure to obtain such Consent would not cause (A) the assignment of the Assets (or portion thereof) affected thereby to Buyer to be void or (B) the termination of a Lease or Contract, in each case, under the express terms thereof, then the Asset (or portion thereof) subject to such un-obtained Consent shall nevertheless be assigned by Seller to Buyer at Closing as part of the Assets and Buyer shall have no claim against, and Seller shall have no Liability for, the failure to obtain such Consent.

(c) Prior to Closing, Seller and Buyer shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all Consents listed on Schedule 4.4; provided, however, that no Party shall be required to incur any Liability or pay any money in order to obtain any such Consent. Subject to the foregoing, Buyer agrees to provide Seller with any information or documentation that may be reasonably requested by Seller or the Third Party holder(s) of such Consents in order to facilitate the process of obtaining such Consents.

ARTICLE XII

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

12.1 Notice of Environmental Defects.

(a) Environmental Defects Notice. Buyer must deliver no later than 5:00 p.m. (Central Time) on the first Business Day following 35 days from the Execution Date (the “Environmental Claim Date”) claim notices to Seller meeting the requirements of this Section 12.1(a) (collectively the “Environmental Defect Notices” and individually an “Environmental Defect Notice”) setting forth any matters which, in Buyer’s reasonable opinion, constitute Environmental Defects and which Buyer intends to assert as Environmental Defects pursuant to this Section 12.1. For all purposes of this Agreement, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived, and Seller shall have no liability for, any Environmental Defect which Buyer fails to assert as an Environmental Defect by a properly delivered Environmental Defect Notice received by Seller on or before the Environmental Claim Date. To be effective, each Environmental Defect Notice shall be in writing and shall include (i) a description of the matter constituting the alleged Environmental Condition (including the applicable Environmental Law violated or implicated thereby) and the Assets affected by such alleged Environmental Condition, (ii) the Allocated Value of the Assets (or portions thereof) affected by such alleged Environmental Condition, (iii) supporting documents reasonably necessary for Seller to verify the existence of

 

32


such alleged Environmental Condition, and (iv) a calculation of the Remediation Amount (itemized in reasonable detail) that Buyer asserts is attributable to such alleged Environmental Defect. Buyer’s calculation of the Remediation Amount included in the Environmental Defect Notice must describe in reasonable detail the Remediation proposed for the alleged Environmental Condition that gives rise to the asserted Environmental Defect and identify all assumptions used by the Buyer in calculating the Remediation Amount, including the standards that Buyer asserts must be met to comply with Environmental Laws. Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure any asserted Environmental Defect on or before the expiration of the Cure Period. To give Seller an opportunity to commence reviewing and curing Environmental Defects, Buyer agrees to use reasonable efforts to give Seller, on or before the end of each calendar week prior to the Environmental Claim Date, written notice of all alleged Environmental Defects discovered by Buyer during the preceding calendar week, which notice may be preliminary in nature and supplemented prior to the Environmental Claim Date.

(b) Remedies for Environmental Defects. Subject to Seller’s continuing right to dispute the existence of an Environmental Defect or the Remediation Amount asserted with respect thereto, and subject to the rights of the Parties pursuant to Section 14.1(c), in the event that any Environmental Defect timely asserted by Buyer in accordance with Section 12.1(a) is not waived in writing by Buyer or cured during the Cure Period, Seller shall, at its sole option, elect to:

(i) subject to the Individual Environmental Threshold and the Aggregate Deductible, reduce the Purchase Price by the Remediation Amount;

(ii) retain the entirety of the Asset that is subject to such Environmental Defect, together with all associated Assets, in which event the Purchase Price shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Allocated Value of such Asset and such associated Assets; or

(iii) indemnify Buyer against all Liability resulting from such Environmental Defect with respect to the Assets pursuant to an indemnity agreement in a form and substance proposed by Seller and consented to by Buyer, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld (each, an “Environmental Indemnity Agreement”).

If Seller elects the option set forth in clause (i) above, Buyer shall be deemed to have assumed responsibility for all of the costs and expenses attributable to the Remediation of the Environmental Condition attributable to such Environmental Defect and all of all Liabilities with respect thereto and such responsibility of Buyer shall be deemed to constitute part of the Assumed Obligations hereunder.

(c) Exclusive Remedy. In the event that any Environmental Defect timely asserted by Buyer in accordance with Section 12.1(a) is not waived in writing by Buyer or cured by the Cure Period, and for which the asserted Remediation Amount exceeds the Allocated Value of such Asset, Buyer shall have the option in its sole discretion to elect to treat such Asset as an Excluded Asset, in which event the affected Asset shall be excluded from the transactions contemplated hereby and the Purchase Price shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Allocated Value of such Asset. Except for Buyer’s rights under this Section 12.1(c) and Buyer’s rights to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 14.1(c), the provisions set forth in Section 12.1(b) shall be the exclusive right and remedy of Buyer with respect to any Environmental Defect with respect to any Asset or other environmental matter.

 

33


(d) Environmental Deductibles. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, (i) in no event shall there be any adjustments to the Purchase Price or other remedies provided by Seller for any individual Environmental Defect for which the Remediation Amount does not exceed One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) (the “Individual Environmental Threshold”); and (ii) in no event shall there be any adjustments to the Purchase Price or other remedies provided by Seller for any Environmental Defect for which the Remediation Amount exceeds the Individual Environmental Threshold unless (A) the amount of the sum of (1) the aggregate Remediation Amounts of all such Environmental Defects that exceed the Individual Environmental Threshold (but excluding any Environmental Defects cured by Seller), plus (2) the aggregate Title Defect Amounts of all Title Defects that exceed the Individual Title Defect Threshold (but excluding any Title Defects cured by Seller), exceeds (B) the Aggregate Deductible, after which point Buyer shall be entitled to adjustments to the Purchase Price or other applicable remedies available hereunder, but only with respect to the amount by which the aggregate amount of such Remediation Amounts and Title Defect Amounts exceeds the Aggregate Deductible. For the avoidance of doubt, if Seller retains any Assets pursuant to Section 12.1(b)(ii), the Remediation Amounts relating to such retained Assets will not be counted towards the Aggregate Deductible. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article XII, the aggregate Remediation Amounts attributable to the effects of all Environmental Defects upon any single Asset shall not exceed the Allocated Value of such Asset. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Article XI or this Article XII, the aggregate of Title Defect Amounts and Remediation Amounts upon any single Asset shall not exceed the Allocated Value of such Asset.

(e) Environmental Dispute Resolution. Seller and Buyer shall attempt to agree on all Environmental Defects and Remediation Amounts prior to Closing. If Seller and Buyer are unable to agree by Closing, the Environmental Defects and Remediation Amounts in dispute shall be exclusively and finally resolved by arbitration pursuant to this Section 12.1(e). There shall be a single arbitrator, who shall be an environmental attorney with at least ten (10) years’ experience in environmental matters involving oil and gas producing properties in the regional area in which the affected Assets are located, as selected by mutual agreement of Buyer and Seller within fifteen (15) days after the Closing or the end of the Cure Period, as applicable, and absent such agreement, by the Houston, Texas office of the American Arbitration Association (the “Environmental Arbitrator”). The Environmental Arbitrator shall be without any conflicts of interests and shall not have been employed by either Party or its Affiliates within the five (5) year period preceding the submission of the dispute. The arbitration proceeding shall be held in Houston, Texas and shall be conducted in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, to the extent such rules do not conflict with the terms of this Section 12.1. The Environmental Arbitrator’s determination shall be made within twenty (20) days after submission of the matters in dispute and shall be final and binding upon the Parties, without right of appeal. In making its determination, the Environmental Arbitrator shall be bound by the rules set forth in this Section 12.1 and, subject to the foregoing, may consider such other matters as in the opinion of the Environmental Arbitrator are necessary or helpful to make a proper determination. The Environmental Arbitrator, however, may not award Buyer its

 

34


share of any greater Remediation Amount than the Remediation Amount claimed by Buyer in its applicable Environmental Defect Notice. The Environmental Arbitrator shall act as an expert for the limited purpose of determining the specific disputed Environmental Defects and Remediation Amounts submitted by either Party and may not award damages, interest or penalties to either Party with respect to any matter. Seller and Buyer shall each bear its own legal fees and other costs of presenting its case. Each of Seller and Buyer shall bear one-half of the costs and expenses of the Environmental Arbitrator. To the extent that the award of the Environmental Arbitrator with respect to any Remediation Amount is not taken into account as an adjustment to the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 3.5 or Section 3.6, then, within ten (10) days after the Environmental Arbitrator delivers written notice to Buyer and Seller of his award with respect to any Remediation Amount, and subject to Section 12.1(d), (i) Buyer shall pay to Seller the amount, if any, so awarded by the Environmental Arbitrator to Seller, and (ii) Seller shall pay to Buyer the amount, if any, so awarded by the Environmental Arbitrator to Buyer. Nothing herein shall operate to cause Closing to be delayed on account of any arbitration conducted pursuant to this Section 12.1(e), and to the extent any adjustments are not agreed upon by the Parties as of Closing, the Purchase Price shall not be adjusted therefor at Closing and subsequent adjustments to the Purchase Price, if any, will be made pursuant to Section 3.6 or this Section 12.1(e).

12.2 NORM, Asbestos, Wastes and Other Substances. Buyer acknowledges that the Assets have been used for exploration, development and production of oil and gas and that there may be NORM, asbestos, petroleum, produced water, wastes or other substances or materials located in, on or under the Assets or associated with the Assets. The presence of NORM, asbestos-containing materials that are non-friable, Hydrocarbons or Hazardous Substances cannot be claimed as an Environmental Defect, except to the extent constituting an Environmental Condition or a violation of Environmental Laws.

(iv) Hazardous Substances or NORM related or attributable to the Assets that are disposed of off-site at Third Party commercial disposal facilities prior to the Closing Date, solely to the extent that Seller coordinated the disposal of such Hazardous Substances or NORM and Seller is named as the generator of any such Hazardous Substances or NORM;

(v) The employment relationship between Seller and any of Seller’s present or former employees or the termination of any such employment relationship prior to the Closing Date;

(vi) Operating Costs related to or arising out of the ownership or operation of Assets to the extent attributable to any period during Sellers’ ownership of such Asset but prior to the Effective Date;

(vii) the Excluded Assets;

(viii) Seller Taxes; and

(ix) Any fines or penalties imposed by any Governmental Authority arising out of any violations of Laws by Seller related to or arising out of Seller’s ownership or operation of Assets prior to the Effective Date.

Buyer and Seller acknowledge that this statement complies with the express negligence rule and is “conspicuous.”

13.6 Exclusive Remedy. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Parties agree that, from and after Closing, Section 6.5, Section 10.1(c), Section 11.1(c), Section 13.2 and Section 13.3, and any Environmental Indemnity Agreement entered into by the Parties, contain the Parties’ exclusive remedies against each other with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, including breaches of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the Parties contained in this Agreement or in any document or certificate delivered pursuant to this Agreement. Except as specified in Section 11.1(c), Section 13.2 and any Environmental Indemnity Agreement entered into by the Parties, effective as of Closing, Buyer, on its own behalf and on behalf of the Buyer Indemnified Parties, hereby releases, remises and forever discharges Seller and all of its equityholders, partners, members, directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives from any and all suits, legal or administrative proceedings, Liabilities or interest whatsoever, in Law or in equity, known or unknown, which Buyer or the Buyer Indemnified Parties might now or subsequently have, based on, relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the ownership, use or operation of any of the Assets prior to Closing or the condition, quality, status or nature of any of the Assets prior to Closing, including rights to contribution under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980, as amended, breaches of statutory or implied warranties, nuisance or other tort actions, rights to punitive damages, common law rights of contribution and rights under insurance maintained by Seller (except as provided in Section 11.3(b)).

13.7 Indemnification Procedures. All claims for indemnification under Section 6.5, Section 10.1(c), Section 13.2 and Section 13.3 shall be asserted and resolved as follows:

 

38


(a) For purposes of Section 6.5, Section 10.1(c) and this Article XIII, the term “Indemnifying Party” when used in connection with particular Liabilities shall mean the Party or Parties having an obligation to indemnify another Party or Parties with respect to such Liabilities pursuant to Section 6.5, Section 10.1(c) or this Article XIII, and the term “Indemnified Party” when used in connection with particular Liabilities shall mean the Party or Parties having the right to be indemnified with respect to such Liabilities by another Party or Parties pursuant to Section 6.5, Section 10.1(c) or this Article XIII.

(b) To make claim for indemnification under Section 6.5, Section 10.1(c), Section 13.2 and Section 13.3, an Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party of its claim under this Section 13.7, including the specific details of and specific basis under this Agreement for its claim (the “Claim Notice”). In the event that the claim for indemnification is based upon a claim by a Third Party against the Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall provide its Claim Notice promptly after the Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of the Third Party Claim and shall enclose a copy of all papers (if any) served with respect to the Third Party Claim; provided that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice of a Third Party Claim as provided in this Section 13.7(b) shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under Section 6.5, Section 10.1(c), Section 13.2 or Section 13.3 (as applicable) except to the extent such failure results in insufficient time being available to permit the Indemnifying Party to effectively defend against the Third Party Claim or otherwise materially prejudices the Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend against the Third Party Claim. In the event that the claim for indemnification is based upon an inaccuracy or breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement, the Claim Notice shall specify the representation, warranty, covenant or agreement that was inaccurate or breached.

(c) In the case of a claim for indemnification based upon a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days from its receipt of the Claim Notice to notify the Indemnified Party whether it admits or denies its liability to defend the Indemnified Party against such Third Party Claim at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnified Party is authorized, prior to and during such 30 day period, to file any motion, answer or other pleading that it shall deem necessary or appropriate to protect its interests or those of the Indemnifying Party and that is not prejudicial to the Indemnifying Party.

(d) If the Indemnifying Party admits its liability to defend the Indemnified Party against a Third Party Claim, it shall have the right and obligation to diligently defend, at its sole cost and expense, the Indemnified Party against such Third Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall have full control of such defense and proceedings, including any compromise or settlement thereof. If requested by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party agrees to cooperate in contesting any Third Party Claim which the Indemnifying Party elects to contest. The Indemnified Party may participate in, but not control, at its own expense, any defense or settlement of any Third Party Claim controlled by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Section 13.7(d). An Indemnifying Party shall not, without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, (i) settle any Third Party Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect thereto which does not include an unconditional written release of the Indemnified Party from all liability in respect of such Third Party Claim or (ii) settle any Third Party Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect thereto in any manner that may materially and adversely affect the Indemnified Party (other than as a result of money damages covered by the indemnity).

 

39


(e) If the Indemnifying Party does not admit its liability or admits its liability to defend the Indemnified Party against a Third Party Claim, but fails to diligently prosecute, indemnify against or settle the Third Party Claim, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend against the Third Party Claim at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, with counsel of the Indemnified Party’s choosing, subject to the right of the Indemnifying Party to admit its liability and assume the defense of the Third Party Claim at any time prior to settlement or final determination thereof. If the Indemnifying Party has not yet admitted its liability to defend the Indemnified Party against a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall send written notice to the Indemnifying Party of any proposed settlement and the Indemnifying Party shall have the option for ten (10) days following receipt of such notice to (i) admit in writing its liability to indemnify the Indemnified Party from and against the liability and consent to such settlement and (ii) if liability is so admitted, reject, in its reasonable judgment, the proposed settlement, or (iii) deny liability. Any failure by the Indemnifying Party to respond to such notice shall be deemed to be an election under subsection (i) above.

(f) In the case of a claim for indemnification not based upon a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days from its receipt of the Claim Notice to (i) cure the Liabilities complained of, (ii) admit its liability for such Liability or (iii) dispute the claim for such Liabilities. If the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within such 30 day period that it has cured the Liabilities or that it disputes the claim for such Liabilities, the amount of such Liabilities shall conclusively be deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party hereunder.

13.8 Survival.

(a) Except for the Specified Representations, the representations and warranties of the Parties in Article IV and Article V and the covenants and agreements of the Parties in Sections 6.1 and 9.4 shall survive Closing for a period of nine (9) months. The Specified Representations shall survive Closing without time limit. The warranty of Seller in Section 11.1(b) shall terminate as of the expiration of the Survival Period. Subject to the foregoing and Section 13.8(b), the remainder of this Agreement shall survive Closing without time limit. Representations, warranties, covenants and agreements shall be of no further force and effect after the date of their expiration; provided that there shall be no termination of any bona fide claim asserted pursuant to this Agreement with respect to such a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement prior to its expiration date.

(b) The indemnities in Section 13.2(a), Section 13.2(b), Section 13.3(a) and Section 13.3(b) shall terminate as of the expiration date of each respective representation, warranty, covenant or agreement that is subject to indemnification, except in each case as to matters for which a specific written claim for indemnity has been delivered to the Indemnifying Party on or before such expiration date. Seller’s indemnity in Section 13.2(c) shall survive Closing without time limit. Seller’s indemnity in Section 13.2(d) shall survive Closing for a period of one (1) year. Buyer’s indemnities in Section 6.5, Section 10.1(c) and Section 13.3(c) shall survive Closing without time limit and shall be deemed covenants running with the Assets (provided that Buyer and its successors and assigns shall not be released from any of, and shall remain jointly and severally liable to the Seller Indemnified Parties for, the obligations and Liabilities of Buyer under such Sections of this Agreement upon any transfer or assignment of any Asset).

 

40


13.9 Waiver of Right to Rescission. Seller and Buyer acknowledge that, following Closing, the payment of money, as limited by the terms of this Agreement, shall be adequate compensation for breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein or for any other claim arising in connection with or with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. As the payment of money shall be adequate compensation, following Closing, Buyer and Seller waive any right to rescind this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby.

13.10 Insurance. The amount of any Liabilities for which any of the Buyer Indemnified Parties is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement or in connection with or with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be reduced by any corresponding insurance proceeds from insurance policies carried by a Party that is realized or that could reasonably be expected to be realized by such Party if a claim were properly pursued under the relevant insurance arrangements.

13.11 Non-Compensatory Damages. None of the Buyer Indemnified Parties nor Seller Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover from Seller or Buyer, as applicable, or their respective Affiliates, any loss of profits, special, indirect, consequential, punitive, exemplary, remote or speculative damages arising under or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, except to the extent any such Party suffers such damages to a Third Party, which damages (including costs of defense and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with defending against such damages) shall not be excluded by this provision as to recovery hereunder. Subject to the preceding sentence, Buyer, on behalf of each of the Buyer Indemnified Parties, and Seller, on behalf of each of Seller Indemnified Parties, each waive any right to recover any loss of profits, special, indirect, consequential, punitive, exemplary, remote or speculative damages arising in connection with or with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

13.12 Disclaimer of Application of Anti-Indemnity Statutes. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the provisions of any anti-indemnity statute relating to oilfield services and associated activities shall not be applicable to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

If the obligation to close the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is terminated pursuant to any provision of Section 14.1, then, except as provided in Section 3.2 and except for the provisions of Section 10.1(c) through Section 10.1(f), Section 10.2, Section 10.3, Section 13.11, this Section 14.2, Section 14.3, Article I and Article XV (other than Section 15.2(b), Section 15.7 and Section 15.8) and such of the defined terms set forth in Annex I to give context to such Sections, this Agreement shall forthwith become void, and the Parties shall have no liability or obligation hereunder (and the Deposit together with any interest or income thereon shall be returned to Buyer), except and to the extent (a) such termination is by Buyer pursuant to Section 14.1(b) due to the failure of the conditions in Section 7.1 or Section 7.2 to be satisfied on or before the Scheduled Closing Date, in which case Buyer shall have the right to seek all remedies available at law or in equity, including specific performance, for such material breach; or (ii) if Seller is entitled to retain the Deposit as liquidated damages pursuant to Section 3.2, then such retention shall constitute full and complete satisfaction of any and all damages Seller may have against Buyer and against any of Buyer’s financing sources. The provision for payment of liquidated damages pursuant to Section 3.2 and this Section 14.2 has been included because, in the event of a termination of this Agreement permitting Seller to retain the Deposit, the actual damages to be incurred by Seller can reasonably be expected to approximate the amount of liquidated damages called for herein and because the actual amount of such damages would be difficult if not impossible to measure accurately. Seller and Buyer agree to execute joint instructions to the Escrow Agent under the Escrow Agreement to deliver the Deposit together with any interest or income thereon to Buyer or Seller as provided for under this Section 14.2.

14.3 Return of Documentation and Confidentiality. Upon termination of this Agreement, Buyer shall return to Seller or destroy all title, engineering, geological and geophysical data, environmental assessments and reports, maps and other information furnished by Seller to Buyer or prepared by or on behalf of Buyer in connection with its due diligence investigation of the Assets, in each case in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement, and an officer of Buyer shall certify same to Seller in writing.

(a) Except as otherwise specifically provided, all fees, costs and expenses incurred by Buyer or Seller in negotiating this Agreement or in consummating the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by the Party incurring the same, including, legal and accounting fees, costs and expenses.

(b) Seller shall be allocated and bear all Asset Taxes attributable to (A) any Tax period ending prior to the Effective Time and (B) the portion of any Straddle Period ending immediately prior to the date on which the Effective Time occurs. Buyer shall be allocated and bear all Asset Taxes attributable to (A) any Tax period or portion thereof beginning on or after the Effective Time and (B) the portion of any Straddle Period beginning on the date on which the Effective Time occurs.

(c) For purposes of determining the allocations described in Section 15.2(b), (i) Asset Taxes that are attributable to the severance or production of Hydrocarbons shall be allocated to the period in which the severance or production giving rise to such Asset Taxes occurred, (ii) Asset Taxes that are based upon or related to income or receipts or imposed on a transactional basis (other than such Asset Taxes described in clause (i)), shall be allocated to the period in which the transaction giving rise to such Asset Taxes occurred, and (iii) Asset Taxes that are ad valorem, property or other Asset Taxes imposed on a periodic basis pertaining to a Straddle Period shall be allocated between the portion of such Straddle Period ending immediately prior to the date on which the Effective Time occurs and the portion of such Straddle Period beginning on the date on which the Effective Time occurs by prorating each such Asset Tax based upon (A) on the one hand, the number of days in the applicable Straddle Period that occur before the date on which the Effective Time occurs, and (B), on the other hand, the number of days in such Straddle Period that occur on or after the date on which the Effective Time occurs. For purposes of clause (iii) of the preceding sentence, the period for such Asset Taxes shall begin on the date on which ownership of the applicable Assets gives rise to liability for the particular Asset Tax and shall end on the day before the next such date.

(d) To the extent the actual amount of an Asset Tax is not determinable at the Closing or at the time of the determination of the Final Settlement Statement pursuant to Section 3.6, as applicable, (i) the Parties shall utilize the most recent information available in estimating the amount of such Asset Tax for purposes of such adjustment, and (ii) upon the later determination of the actual amount of such Asset Tax, timely payments will be made from one Party to the other to the extent necessary to cause each Party to bear the amount of such Asset Tax that is allocable to such Party under this Section 15.2.

(e) Buyer shall be responsible for payment to the applicable Taxing Authorities of all Asset Taxes that become due and payable on or after the Closing Date, and Buyer shall indemnify and hold Seller harmless for any failure to make such payments.

 

43


(f) All required documentary, filing and recording fees and expenses in connection with the filing and recording of the assignments, conveyances or other instruments required to convey title to the Assets to Buyer shall be borne by Buyer. Any and all sales, use, transfer, stamp, documentary, registration or similar Taxes incurred or imposed with respect to the transactions described in this Agreement (collectively, “Transfer Taxes”) shall be borne by Buyer.

(g) The Parties shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns and any audit, litigation, or other proceeding with respect to Taxes relating to the Assets. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon another Party’s request) the provision of records and information that are relevant to any such Tax Return or audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided under this Agreement.

15.3 Assignment. Subject to the provisions of Section 15.17, this Agreement may not be assigned by Buyer without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, at any time prior to three Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Buyer may, by written notice to Seller direct Seller to assign Buyer’s interest in this Agreement and all of the Assets and Assumed Obligations to an Affiliate of Buyer. Such assignment shall not relieve Buyer of any obligations and responsibilities hereunder, including obligations and responsibilities arising following such assignment. Any assignment or other transfer by Buyer or its successors and assigns of any of the Assets shall not relieve Buyer or its successors or assigns of any of their obligations (including indemnity obligations) hereunder, as to the Assets so assigned or transferred. In the event that Buyer sells or assigns all or a portion of the Assets, (i) the Agreement shall remain in effect between Buyer and Seller regardless of such assignment; (ii) Buyer shall promptly notify Seller of the identity and contact information of the Buyer’s assignee; and (iii) Buyer shall (x) require its successors and assigns to expressly assume the Assumed Obligations and all of its other duties, responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement, to the extent related or applicable to the Assets or the portion thereof acquired by them, but such assumption shall not release Buyer from any such Assumed Obligations or other duty, responsibility or obligation, and (y) require that its assignee make Seller a third party beneficiary entitled to enforce any and all of the Assumed Obligations against such assignee.

15.4 Preparation of Agreement. Seller and Buyer and their respective counsel participated in the preparation of this Agreement. In the event of any ambiguity in this Agreement, no presumption shall arise based on the identity of the draftsman of this Agreement.

15.5 Publicity. Seller and Buyer shall promptly consult with each other with regard to all press releases or other public or private announcements issued or made at or prior to Closing concerning this Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein, and, except as may be required by Laws or the applicable rules and regulations of any stock exchange, neither Buyer nor Seller shall issue any such press release or other public or private announcement without the prior written consent of the other Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned and which shall not require remuneration of any kind.

15.9 Entire Agreement; Conflicts. This Agreement, the annexes, exhibits, and schedules hereto, the Transaction Documents and the Confidentiality Agreement collectively constitute the entire agreement between the Parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, whether oral or written, of the Parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof. There are no warranties, representations, or other agreements between the Parties relating to the subject matter hereof except as specifically set forth in this Agreement, and neither Seller nor Buyer shall be bound by or liable for any alleged representation, promise, inducement or statements of intention not so set forth. In the event of a conflict between the terms and provisions of this Agreement and the terms and provisions of any schedules or exhibit hereto, the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall govern and control; provided, however, that the inclusion in any of the schedules and exhibits hereto of terms and provisions not addressed in this Agreement shall not be deemed a conflict, and all such additional provisions shall be given full force and effect, subject to the provisions of this Section 15.9.

15.10 Parties in Interest. The terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Seller and Buyer and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to confer on any Person other than the Parties or their successors and permitted assigns, or the Parties’ respective related Indemnified Parties hereunder any rights, remedies, obligations or Liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement; provided that only a Party and its successors and assigns will have the right to enforce the provisions of this Agreement on its own behalf or on behalf of any of its related Indemnified Parties (but shall not be obligated to do so); provided further that the financing sources and their respective current, former or future directors, officers, general or limited partners, stockholders, members, managers, controlling persons, Affiliates, employees or representatives shall be third party beneficiaries of Sections 14.2, 15.13 and 15.18 and this Section 15.10.

15.11 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended only by an instrument in writing executed by the Parties against whom enforcement is sought.

15.12 Waiver; Rights Cumulative. Any of the terms, covenants, representations, warranties or conditions hereof may be waived only by a written instrument executed by or on behalf of the Party waiving compliance. No course of dealing on the part of Seller or Buyer or their respective officers, employees, agents or representatives and no failure by Seller or Buyer to exercise any of its rights under this Agreement shall, in each case, operate as a waiver thereof or affect in any way the right of such Party at a later time to enforce the performance of such provision. No waiver by any Party of any condition, or any breach of any term, covenant, representation or warranty contained in this Agreement, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be or construed as a further or continuing waiver of any such condition or breach or a waiver of any other condition or of any breach of any other term, covenant, representation or warranty. The rights of Seller and Buyer under this Agreement shall be cumulative, and the exercise or partial exercise of any such right shall not preclude the exercise of any other right.

15.13 Governing Law; Jurisdiction.

(a) This Agreement and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or the rights, duties and relationship of the parties hereto and thereto, shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the Laws of the State of Texas, excluding any conflicts of law, rule or principle that might refer construction of provisions to the Laws of another jurisdiction.

(b) The Parties agree that the appropriate, exclusive and convenient forum for any disputes between any of the Parties arising out of this Agreement, the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be in any state or federal court in Houston, Texas and each of the Parties irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of such courts solely in respect of any proceeding arising out of or related to this Agreement. The Parties further agree that the Parties shall not bring suit with respect to any disputes arising out of this Agreement, the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby in any court or jurisdiction other than the above specified courts. The Parties further agree, to the extent permitted by Law, that a final and nonappealable judgment against a Party in any action or proceeding contemplated above shall be conclusive and may be enforced in any other jurisdiction within or outside the United States by suit on the judgment, a certified or exemplified copy of which shall be conclusive evidence of the fact and amount of such judgment.

(c) To the extent that any Party hereto or any of its Affiliates has acquired, or hereafter may acquire, any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, such Party (on its own behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates) hereby irrevocably (i) waives such immunity in respect of its obligations with respect to this Agreement and (ii) submits to the personal jurisdiction of any court described in Section 15.13(b).

(d) The Parties agree that they hereby knowingly, voluntarily and intentionally irrevocably waive the right to trial by jury in any action based hereon, or arising out of, under, or in connection with, this Agreement, the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

15.14 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of Law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any adverse manner to any Party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

15.15 Removal of Name. As promptly as practicable, but in any case within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall eliminate the name W&T Offshore, Inc. and any variants thereof from the Assets and, except with respect to such grace period for eliminating existing usage, shall have no right to use any logos, trademarks or trade names belonging to Seller.

15.16 Like Kind Exchange. At any time prior to Closing, either Party (the “Electing Party”) may elect by written notice to the other Party to receive and/or pay, as the case may be, all or a portion of the Purchase Price through an escrow agent or other intermediary designated by the Electing Party pursuant to an agreement to be established for purposes of effecting a tax free, like-kind exchange under Section 1031 of the Code. The other Party agrees to cooperate with all reasonable requests of the Electing Party in order to establish and create sufficient documentation to support such federal tax treatment by the Electing Party, provided that (i) Closing shall not be delayed or affected by reason of such like-kind exchange nor shall consummation or accomplishment of such exchange be a condition precedent or condition subsequent to the Electing Party’s obligations under this Agreement, and the Electing Party’s failure or inability to consummate such an exchange for any reason or for no reason at all shall not be deemed to excuse or release the Electing Party from any of its obligations under this Agreement, (ii) the Electing Party shall remain responsible to the other Party for the full and prompt performance of the Electing Party’s obligations hereunder, notwithstanding any delegation by the Electing Party of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to a third party, and (iii) the Electing Party shall ensure that the other Party does not incur additional costs, expenses, fees or liabilities as a result of the requested exchange, and the Electing Party shall indemnify and reimburse the other Party for any such costs, expenses, fees or liabilities incurred by such other Party.
