PART II
INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
Item 3. Incorporation of Documents by Reference.
Pursuant to General Instruction E to Form S-8 under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, with respect to the registration of additional securities of
the same class as other securities for which Registration Statements on Form S-8
relating to the same employee benefit plan are effective, Denbury Resources Inc.
(the "Company") hereby incorporates herein the contents of its earlier
Registration Statements (Registration Nos. 333-1006, 333-27995, 333-55999 and
333-70485) by this reference and hereby deems such contents to be a part hereof,
except as otherwise updated or modified in this filing as noted herein.
Item 8. Exhibits.
(a) Exhibits.
The following documents are filed as a part of this
registration statement.

Number Document Description
------- --------------------
4 Amendment to Denbury Resources Inc. Stock Option Plan
5 Opinion of Jenkens & Gilchrist, A Professional Corporation
15 Letter from independent accountants as to unaudited
condensed interim financial information
23 Consent of Deloitte & Touche LLP
Item 9. Undertakings.
A. The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) to file, during any period in which offers or sales are being
made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to
include any material information with respect to the plan of
distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or
any material change to such information in the registration statement;
(2) that, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to
be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be
deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; and
(3) to remove from registration by means of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold
at the termination of the offering.
B. The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's
annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is
incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a
new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
2
C. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such
liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or
paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is against
public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the
final adjudication of such issue.
