pursuant to the Migration Plan.

(b) Audit Rights. The owing party on any invoice shall have the right,
at any time within six (6) months after the date of any such invoice to audit
those books and records of the invoicing party with respect to the Services

credited or paid together with interest at the Interest Rate from the date of
the auditing party's overpayment to the invoicing party until the date of such
offset or refund of such overpayment is credited or paid. If the invoicing party
disputes the claim and refuses to pay any refund claim by the auditing party

parties shall be entitled to seek any remedy with respect to such matter
available at law or in equity.

Contract Administration Officers from time to time upon written notice to the

Each Service Provider shall be an independent contractor with respect
to the Services it performs hereunder. Nothing in this Agreement shall cause the
relationship between ACN and the ACN Service Providers on the one hand, and
Buyer on the other hand, to be deemed to constitute an agency, partnership or
joint venture. The terms of this Agreement are not intended to constitute a
joint employer for any purpose between any of the parties and their affiliates.

SECTION 16. Signatures Counterparts. Facsimile transmission of any signed
original document and/or retransmission of any signed facsimile transmission
shall be the same as delivery of an original. At the request of Buyer or ACN,
the parties will confirm facsimile transmission by signing a duplicate original
document. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall be considered
one and the same agreement.

SECTION 17. Amendments. This Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented
only by a written instrument executed by ACN and Buyer.

SECTION 18. Governing Law.

(a) This Agreement will be governed by the laws of the state of New
York without regard to conflict of law principles

(b) Any claim, controversy or dispute between the parties shall be
resolved by binding arbitration of the issue in accordance with the following
procedures:

(i) Either party may request arbitration by giving the other
involved party written notice, which notice shall describe, in
reasonable detail, the nature of the dispute, controversy or claim. The
arbitration shall be governed by the rules of the American Arbitration
Association ("AAA") and held in Houston, Texas or other mutually agreed
upon location.

(ii) If both parties agree an arbitrator within 30 days after a
request for arbitration is made hereunder, that arbitrator shall be
selected to hear the dispute in accordance with AAA rules. If the
parties are not able to agree upon an arbitrator within such 30 day
period, then that party who requested arbitration may request that the
AAA select an arbitrator who has business experience in the energy
industry similar to the Business and the selected arbitrator shall hear
the dispute in accordance with AAA rules.

(iii) Each of the parties shall bear its own fees, costs and
expenses of the arbitration and its own legal expenses, attorneys' fees
and costs of all experts and witnesses; provided, however, that if the
claim of either party is upheld by the arbitrator in all material
respects, the arbitrator may apportion between the parties as the
arbitrator may deem equitable the costs incurred by the prevailing
party. The fees and expenses of the arbitration procedures, including
the fees of the arbitrator, will be shared equally by the parties.

(iv) Any award rendered pursuant to an arbitration proceeding shall
be final, conclusive, non-appealable and binding upon the parties, and
any judgment thereon may be entered and enforced in any court of
competent jurisdiction.

SECTION 19. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Purchase Agreement and all
Schedules attached thereto constitute the entire agreement between the parties
hereto relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior and
contemporaneous agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions,
whether oral or written, of the parties, and there are no general or specific
warranties, representations or other agreements by or among the parties in
connection with the entering into of this Agreement or the subject matter hereof
except as specifically set forth or contemplated herein or therein.

SECTION 20. Negotiated Agreement. This Agreement has been negotiated by the
parties and the fact that the initial and final draft will have been prepared by
either party will not give rise to any presumption for or against any party to
this Agreement or be used in any respect or forum in the construction or
interpretation of this Agreement or any of its provisions.

SECTION 21. Waiver. No consent or waiver, express or implied, by any party to or
of any breach or default by any other party in the performance by such other
party of its obligations hereunder shall be deemed or construed to be a consent
or waiver to or of any other breach or default in the performance of obligations
hereunder by such other party hereunder. Failure on the part of any party to
complain of any act or failure to act of any other party or to declare any other
party in default, irrespective of how long such failure continues, shall not
constitute a waiver by such first party of any of its rights hereunder.

SECTION 22. Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of
this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void
or unenforceable, each of ACN and Buyer directs that such court interpret and
apply the remainder of this Agreement in the manner that it determines most
closely effectuates their intent in entering into this Agreement, and in doing
so particularly take into account the relative importance of the term,
provision, covenant or restriction being held invalid, void or unenforceable.

SECTION 23. Interpretation. Whenever the words "include," "includes," or
"including," are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by
the words "without limitation."

SECTION 24. No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except for Buyer and ACN Service
Providers, which are intended third party beneficiaries, and except as set forth
in Sections 9 and 15, nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be
construed to give any person, other than the parties hereto, their successors
and permitted assigns, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in
respect of this Agreement or any provision contained herein.

SECTION 25. Specific Performance and Other Equitable Rights.

(a) ACN recognizes and acknowledges that Buyer would not have entered
into the Purchase Agreement unless ACN had agreed to execute this Agreement and
perform the Transition Services in accordance herewith, and that a breach by ACN
of any covenants or other commitments contained in this Agreement will cause
Buyer to sustain injury for which it would not have an adequate remedy at law
for money damages. Therefore ACN agrees that in the event

of any such breach, the Buyer shall be entitled to the remedy of specific
performance of such covenants or commitments and preliminary and permanent
injunctive and other equitable relief in addition to any other remedy to which
Buyer may be entitled, at law or in equity.

(b) Buyer recognizes and acknowledges that ACN would not have entered
into the Purchase Agreement unless Buyer had agreed to execute this Agreement
and perform the Transition Services in accordance herewith, and that a breach by
Buyer of any covenants or other commitments contained in this Agreement will
cause ACN to sustain injury for which it would not have an adequate remedy at
law for money damages. Therefore Buyer agrees that in the event of any such
breach, ACN shall be entitled to the remedy of specific performance of such
covenants or commitments and preliminary and permanent injunctive and other
equitable relief in addition to any other remedy to which ACN may be entitled,
at law or in equity.

SECTION 26. Press Release. Except as required by Laws or applicable stock
exchange rules, neither party shall issue any press releases or any other public
disclosure relating to or arising out of the performance of this Agreement
without the prior written consent and approval of the content of such statement
by the other party. The disclosing party shall notify the other party of any
such requirement of Law to disclose and shall promptly provide a copy of the
relevant disclosure to the other.

SECTION 27. Further Assurance. Each of the parties agrees at any time and from
time to time during the Service Period, upon the request of the other party, to
do, or to cause to be done, all such further acts and assurances as may be
required to carry out the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
