10. TITLE MATTERS.
10.1 TITLE ADJUSTMENT. There shall not exist at Closing any uncured

pursuant to the further terms of this Agreement or Buyer has elected to

any claimed Title Defects not less than ten (10) business days prior to
Closing ("Title Defects Notice"). The Title Defects Notice shall (a)
set forth in reasonable detail the Well and/or Lease with respect to
which a claimed Title Defect is made, (b)the nature of such claimed
Title Defect, and (c) Buyer's proposed calculation of the Defect Value
of each claimed Title Defect. Any Title Defect that is not identified
in the Title Defects Notice shall thereafter be deemed a Permitted
Encumbrance and be forever waived and expressly assumed by Buyer. As
used in this Agreement, the term:
10.1.1 "Title Defect" shall mean, with respect to
Seller's interest in the Leases and Wells as
set forth on the attached Exhibits, any
lien, mortgage, pledge, claim, charge,
option, defect, requirement for consent to
assignment and other encumbrance which would
apply to the transaction contemplated
hereby, other than Permitted Encumbrances,
and entitle the owner thereof to receive a
percentage of all proceeds of production
therefrom less than the Net Revenue Interest
of Seller set forth on Exhibit A for such
Well. For purposes of this Agreement, in
evaluating the significance of a fact,
circumstance or condition to determine
whether the same constitutes a Title Defect,
due consideration shall be given to the
length of time that the
6
7
particular Property has been producing
hydrocarbon substances and whether such
fact, circumstance or condition is of the
type expected to be encountered in the area
involved and is usual and customarily
acceptable to reasonable and prudent
operators, interest owners, and purchasers
engaged in the business of the ownership,
development and operation of oil and gas
properties. The Wells and Leases are subject
to various limitations of depth, formation
and/or hydrocarbon substance which shall not
be considered Title Defects unless such
limitations adversely impact Buyer's
obligation for operating expenses or Buyer's
ability to receive its share of the
percentage of production proceeds depicted
in Exhibit A.
10.1.2 "Net Revenue Interest" shall mean Seller's
interest in and to all production of oil,
gas and other minerals saved, produced and
sold from the Leases and Wells noted on
Exhibits A and B after giving effect to all
valid lessor's royalties, overriding
royalties, production payments, carried
interests, liens and other encumbrances or
charges against production therefrom.
10.1.3 "Working Interest" shall mean, Seller's
interest in and to the full and entire
leasehold estate created under and by virtue
of the Leases and all rights and obligations
of every kind and character appurtenant
thereto or arising therefrom, without regard
to any valid lessor's royalty, overriding
royalties, production payments, carried
interests, liens, or other encumbrances or
charges against production therefrom insofar
as such interest in said leasehold estate is
burdened with the obligation to bear and pay
costs of operations.
10.1.4 "Permitted Encumbrances" shall mean:
(a) Lessors' royalties, overriding royalties,
reversionary interests and similar burdens if the net
cumulative effect of the burdens does not operate to
reduce the interest of Seller with respect to all oil
and gas produced from any Well below the Net Revenue
Interest for such Well set forth in Exhibit A;
(b) Division orders and sales contracts terminable
without penalty upon no more than six months notice
to the purchaser;
(c) Preferential rights to purchase and required
third party consents to assignment and similar
agreements with respect to which waivers or consents
are obtained from the appropriate parties, or the
appropriate time period for asserting any such right
has expired without an exercise of the right;
(d) Materialman's, mechanic's, repairman's,
employee's, contractor's, operators, tax, and other
similar liens or charges arising in the ordinary
course of business for obligations that are not
delinquent or that will be paid and discharged in the
ordinary course of business or if delinquent, that
are being contested in good faith by appropriate
action of which Buyer is notified in writing before
Closing;
(e) All rights to consent by, required notices to,
filings with, or other actions by governmental
entities in connection with the sale or conveyance of
oil and gas leases or interests therein if they are
routinely obtained subsequent to the sale or
conveyance;
7
8
(f) Easements, rights-of-way, servitudes, permits,
surface leases and other rights in respect of surface
operations that do not materially interfere with the
oil and gas operations to be conducted on any Well or
Lease;
(g) All operating agreements, unit agreements, unit
operating agreements, pooling agreements and pooling
designations affecting the Properties that are set
forth in Exhibit D and are either of record in
Seller's chain of title or reflected or referenced in
Seller's files;
(h) Conventional rights of reassignment prior to
release or surrender requiting notice to the holders
of the rights;
(i) All rights reserved to or vested in any
governmental, statutory or public authority to
control or regulate any of the Properties in any
manner, and all applicable laws, rules and orders of
governmental authority;
(j) The terms and conditions of the Leases, and of
all agreements that are set forth in Exhibit D and
are of record in Seller's chain of title or reflected
or referenced in Seller's files;
(k) All other liens, charges, encumbrances,
contracts, agreements, instruments, obligations,
defects and irregularities affecting the Properties
which individually or in the aggregate are not such
as to interfere materially with the operation, value
or use of any of the Properties, do not prevent Buyer
from receiving the proceeds of production from any of
the Wells, do not reduce the interest of Seller with
respect to all oil and gas produced from any Well
below the Net Revenue Interest set forth in Exhibit A
for such Well, and/or do not materially increase the
portion of the costs and expenses relating to any
Well that Seller is obligated to pay above the
Working Interest set forth in Exhibit A for such
Well;
(l) Any Title Defect relating to a Well or Lease that
has existed for a period of at least five years
immediately prior to the Effective Date (simply by
virtue of its existence and not upon the occurrence
of a certain event) of giving a third party the right
to take any action or assert any claim that could
affect Seller's right to receive income or revenues
from the Well to which such defect relates, and with
respect to which Seller has been receiving income
from the affected Well without contest or under
notice of adverse claim for a period of at least five
years immediately prior to the Effective Date; and
(m) Any Title Defects Buyer may have expressly waived
in writing or which are deemed to have become
Permitted Encumbrances under Section 10.1.
10.1.5 "Defect Value" shall mean the amount by
which the Allocated Value of any Well is
reduced as a result of each Title Defect
which is accepted by Seller or determined to
be a Title Defect pursuant to Section 10.2.
10.1.6 "Allocated Value" shall mean, with respect
to any Well, the value specified therefor on
Exhibit A attached hereto.

10.2 DETERMINATION OF TITLE DEFECTS AND DEFECT VALUES. Within five (5)
business days after Sellers receipt of the Title Defects Notice, Seller
shall notify Buyer whether Seller agrees with Buyer's claimed Title
Defects and/or the proposed Defect Values therefor ("Seller's
Response"). If Seller does not agree with any claimed Title Defect
and/or the proposed Defect Value therefor, then the parties shall enter
into good faith negotiations and shall attempt to agree on such
matters. If the parties cannot reach agreement concerning either the
existence of a Title Defect or a Defect Value within ten (10) business
days after Buyer's receipt of Seller's Response, upon either party's
request, the parties shall mutually agree on and employ an attorney
experienced in title examination in the state where the Properties are
located ("Title Consultant") to resolve all points of disagreement
relating to Title Defects and Defect Values; provided, however, that if
at any time the Title Consultant so chosen fails or refuses to perform
hereunder, a new Title Consultant shall be chosen by the parties. The
cost of any such Title Consultant shall be borne 50% by Seller and 50%
by Buyer. Each party shall present a written statement of its position
on the Title Defect and/or Defect Value in question to the Title
Consultant within five (5) business days after the Title Consultant is
selected, and the Title Consultant shall make a determination of all
points of disagreement in accordance with the terms and conditions of
this Agreement within ten (10) business days of receipt of such
position statements. The determination by the Title Consultant shall be
conclusive and binding on the parties, and shall be enforceable against
any party in any court of competent jurisdiction. If necessary, the
Closing Date shall be deferred only as to those Properties affected by
any unresolved disputes regarding the existence of a Title Defect
and/or the Defect Value until the consultant has made a determination
of the disputed issues with respect thereto and all subsequent dates
and required activities with respect to any such Properties having
reference to the Closing Date shall be correspondingly deferred;
provided, however, that, unless Seller and Buyer mutually agree to the
contrary, the Closing Date shall not be deferred in any event for more
than sixty (60) days beyond the original Closing Date. All Properties
as to which no such dispute(s) exist shall be conveyed to Buyer subject
to the terms of this Agreement at Closing. Once the Title Consultant's
determination has been expressed to both parties, Seller shall have
five (5) business days in which to advise Buyer in writing which of the
options available to Seller under Section 10.3 below Seller elects
regarding each of the Properties as to which the Title Consultant has
made a determination.
10.3 REMEDIES FOR TITLE DEFECT. Seller shall have the right, but not
the obligation, to cure any Title Defect accepted by Seller or
determined to be a Title Defect pursuant to Section 10.2 above. With
respect to any Title Defect that Seller elects not to cure or that
Seller fails to cure at or prior to the Closing, Seller shall have the
option to:
10.3.1 exclude the Property including pipelines and
other personal property necessary to operate
the particular well(s) subject to the Title
Defect from this Agreement, in which event
the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the
Allocated Value of such Property, or
10.3.2 sell the Property subject to such Title
Defect to Buyer and the Purchase Price shall
be reduced by the Defect Value for such
Title Defect. Any deductions shall first
come from the deferred payments
10.3.3 No downward adjustment of the Purchase Price
on account of Title Defects shall occur
unless:
(a) the Defect Value determined in accordance with
this Article 10 of an individual Title Defect exceeds
$2,500.00, and
9
10
(b) the aggregate amount of the Defect Values
determined in accordance with this Article 10 exceeds
three percent (3%) of the Purchase Price ("Title
Basket Value").
The amount of any such downward adjustment shall be the difference
between the aggregate amount of Defect Values and the Title Basket
Value. Should the aggregate Defect Values and/or the Allocated Values
of excluded Properties exceed six percent (6%) of the Purchase Price,
then Seller or Buyer shall have the option to terminate this Agreement,
in which case neither party shall have any further liability or
obligation to the other hereunder except as regards obligations imposed
by any confidentiality agreement, which shall survive such termination
and be enforceable in accordance with the terms thereof,'and Seller
will promptly refund the Performance Deposit.
10.4 PREFERENTIAL PURCHASE RIGHTS AND CONSENTS TO ASSIGN. Seller shall
make a good faith effort to insure that all preferential purchase
rights and consents to assign arising in connection with the assignment
of the Properties to Buyer shall have been waived or obtained or shall
have expired before or by the time of Closing; except those which are
customarily obtained or received after Closing.
11. CLOSING.
11.1 THE CLOSING. The sale and purchase of the Properties pursuant to
this Agreement shall be consummated (the "Closing") in Wichita, Kansas

11.2 CLOSING OBLIGATIONS. At the Closing, the following events shall

closing statement reflecting the Preliminary
Amount at least two (2) business days prior
to the Closing.

18. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS.
18.1 PRESENCE OF WASTES, NORM, HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES, AND ASBESTOS.
Buyer acknowledges that the Properties have been used to explore for,
develop and produce oil and gas, and that spills of wastes, crude oil,
produced water, hazardous substances, and other materials may have
occurred thereon. Additionally, the Properties, including production
equipment, may contain asbestos, hazardous substances, or Naturally
Occurring Radioactive Material ("NORM"). NORM may affix or attach
itself to the inside of wells, materials, and equipment as scale or in
other forms, and NORM-containing material may have been buried or
otherwise disposed of on the Properties. Special procedures may be
required for remediating, removing, transporting, and disposing of
asbestos, NORM, hazardous substances, and other materials from the
Property, and Buyer assumes its share of all liability for the
assessment, remediation, removal, transportation, and disposal of these
materials and associated activities in accordance with the applicable
rules, regulations, and requirements of governmental agencies.
18.2 ADVERSE ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITION. As used in the following
Sections, "Adverse Environmental Condition" means:
(a) any contamination (exclusive of NORM present in or on
any Property) or condition exceeding
currently-allowed regulatory limits and not otherwise
permanently authorized by permit or law, resulting
from any discharge, release, disposal, production,
storage, treatment, or any other activities on, in or
from any Property, or the migration or transportation
from other lands to any Property, prior to the
Effective Date, of any wastes, pollutants,
contaminants, hazardous materials or other materials
or substances subject to regulation relating to the
protection of the environment, including, but not
limited to, the Clean Air Act, the Comprehensive
Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability
Act of 1980 ("CERCLA"), the Federal Water Pollution
Control Act, the Safe Drinking Water Act, the Toxic
Substance Control Act, The Hazardous and Solid Waste
Amendments Act of 1954, the Superfund Amendments and
Reauthorization Act of 1986, the Hazardous Materials
Transportation Act, the Clean Water Act, the National
Environmental Policy Act, the Endangered Species Act,
the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act, the National
Historic Preservation Act, and the Oil Pollution Act
of 1990, as well as any state and local regulation or
law governing the same, similar or related matters,
and
(b) any such contamination or condition temporarily
authorized by permit fee agreement or other
arrangement.
18.3 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT. After the execution of this Agreement,
Buyer shall have the opportunity to conduct at its sole risk and
expense an environmental assessment of the Properties. Seller will
provide reasonable access for this purpose to Properties operated by
Seller; for any Property not operated by Seller, however, Buyer must
contact the operator of any such non- operated Property directly. Buyer
or any of its representatives and agents must comply with Seller's
13
14
environmental and safety rules and policies while on Seller's
Properties. Buyer agrees it will not disclose any information obtained
in its environmental assessment to third parties unless agreed to in
writing by Seller or unless such disclosure is expressly required by
applicable law or regulation or is compelled pursuant to legal process
of any court or governmental authority. Buyer will notify Seller in
advance of any such disclosure and will furnish Seller copies of all
materials to be disclosed prior to any disclosure thereof to third
parties. As soon as possible after Buyer's receipt thereof, Buyer shall
forward to Seller copies of all reports, data, analysis, test results,
remediation cost estimates, and recommended remediation procedures or
other information concerning or derived from Buyer's environmental
assessment.
18.4 NOTICE OF ADVERSE ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS. Buyer shall notify
Seller in writing of any claimed Adverse Environmental Condition not
less than ten (10) business days prior to Closing ("Environmental
Defects Notice"). The Environmental Defects Notice shall (a) set forth
in reasonable detail the Well and/or Lease with respect to which a
claimed Adverse Environmental Condition is made, (b) the nature of such
claimed Adverse Environmental Condition, and (c) Buyer's proposed
calculation of the cost to remediate each claimed Adverse Environmental
Condition ("Remediation Value") Buyer shall absolutely and forever
waive its right to assert any claim or liability against Seller arising
out of or in any way related to any Adverse Environmental Condition not
set forth in the Environmental Defects Notice.
18.5 DETERMINATION OF ADVERSE ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS AND REMEDIATION
VALUES. Within five (5) business days after Seller's receipt of the
Environmental Defects Notice, Seller shall notify Buyer whether Seller
agrees with Buyer's claimed Adverse Environmental Conditions and/or the
Remediation Value ("Seller's Environmental Response"). If Seller does
not agree with any claimed Adverse Environmental Condition and/or the
Remediation Value, then the parties shall enter into good faith
negotiations and shall attempt to agree on such matters. If the parties
cannot reach agreement concerning either the existence of an Adverse
Environmental Condition or the Remediation Value within ten (10)
business days after Buyers receipt of Seller's Environmental Response,
upon either party's request, the parties shall mutually agree on a
consultant experienced in environmental matters in the state where the
Properties are located ("Environmental Consultant") to resolve all
points of disagreement with respect to such matters. If at any time any
Environmental Consultant so chosen fails or refuses to perform
hereunder, a new Environmental Consultant shall be chosen by the
parties. The cost of any such consultant shall be borne 50% by Seller
and 50% by Buyer. Each Party shall present a written statement of its
position on the Adverse Environmental Condition and/or the Remediation
Value in question to the consultant within five (5) business days after
the Environmental Consultant is selected, and the Environmental
Consultant shall make a determination of all points of disagreement in
accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement within ten
(10) business days of receipt of such position statements. The
determination by the Environmental Consultant shall be conclusive and
binding on the parties, and shall be enforceable against any party in
any court of competent jurisdiction. If necessary, the Closing Date
shall be deferred only as to those Properties affected by any
unresolved disputes regarding the existence of a Adverse Environmental
Condition and/or the Remediation Value until the Environmental
Consultant has made a determination of the disputed issues with respect
thereto and all subsequent dates and required activities with respect
to any such Properties having reference to the Closing Date shall be
correspondingly deferred; provided, however, that, unless Seller and
Buyer mutually agree to the contrary, the Closing Date shall not be
deferred in any event for more than sixty (60) days beyond the original
Closing Date. All Properties as to which no such dispute(s) exist shall
be conveyed to Buyer subject to the terms of this Agreement at Closing.
Once the Environmental Consultant's determination has been expressed to
both parties, Seller shall have five (5) business days in which to
advise Buyer in writing which of the options available to Seller under
14
15
Section 19.6 below Seller elects regarding each of the Properties as to
which the consultant has made a determination.
18.6 REMEDIES FOR ADVERSE ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS.
18.6.1 As to any Adverse Environmental Condition
accepted by Seller or determined to be an
Adverse Environmental Condition, Seller
shall have the election to:
(a) remediate such Adverse Environmental Condition at
Seller's sole cost in accordance with applicable
environmental laws, and there shall be no adjustment
to the Purchase Price in respect of such Adverse
Environmental Condition and the provisions of Section
18.7 shall thereafter apply in all respects;
(b) reduce the Purchase Price by the applicable
remediation Value, which in no event shall exceed the
Allocated Value of the Unit and/or Well affected by
such Adverse Environmental Condition, in which event
Seller shall have no other or further obligation or
liability in respect of such Adverse Environmental
Condition and the provisions of Section 18.7 shall
thereafter apply in all respects; or
(c) delete from this Agreement the Property that
contains the Adverse Environmental Condition and
adjust the Purchase Price by the Allocated Value of
such Property.
18.6.2 No downward adjustment of the Purchase Price
on account of Adverse Environmental
Conditions shall occur unless:
(a) the Remediation Value determined in accordance
with this Article 19 of an individual Adverse
Environmental Condition exceeds $5,000.00, and
(b) unless the aggregate sum of all Remediation
Values exceeds three percent (3%) of the Purchase
Price (Environmental Basket Value) and the amount of
downward adjustment shall be the difference between
the aggregate sum of all Remediation Values and the
Environmental Basket Value.
Should the aggregate sum of the Remediation Values
exceed six percent (6%) of the Purchase Price, then
Seller or Buyer shall have the option to terminate
this Agreement, in which case neither party shall
have any further liability or obligation to the other
hereunder except as regards obligations imposed by
any confidentiality agreement, which shall survive
such termination and be enforceable in accordance
with the terms thereof, and Seller will promptly
refund the Performance Deposit.
18.6.3 If Seller elects 18.6.1(a) above, Seller
will exercise all reasonable efforts and
diligence to complete the remediation work
within six (6) months of the Closing Date,
but any failure by Seller to complete such
remediation efforts by such time shall not
relieve Seller of its duty to satisfy its
obligation hereunder. During such
remediation work, Seller shall hold the
Remediation Value in escrow.
18.7 BUYER'S INDEMNIFICATION OF ADVERSE ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS.
Notwithstanding anything contained in Article 16, except for the costs
associated with Seller's
15
16
remediation of any Adverse Environmental Conditions pursuant to Section
18.6.1(a) above, Buyer and Seller, as to their respective interests,

regulations now exist or are hereafter enacted, INCLUDING, WITHOUT
LIMITATION, ANY CLAIMS, DEMANDS, CAUSES OF ACTION, LIABILITIES, OR
