ACQUISITION AGREEMENT

(iv)  Payments by an Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 2.09(d) in respect of any Damages are to be reduced by any insurance proceeds actually received by the Indemnified Person with respect to any such claim (net of any related costs incurred in connection therewith, including deductibles, retroactive premiums and premium increases). Each Indemnified Person shall use commercially reasonable efforts to recover under applicable insurance policies for any Damages prior to seeking indemnification under this Agreement and to disclose any such recovery to Indemnifying Party. 

(v)  Each Indemnified Person shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any Damages upon becoming aware of any event or circumstance that would be reasonably expected to, or does, give rise thereto; provided, however, no Indemnified Person is to be required to incur any unreasonable costs in connection therewith. 

(vi)  The representations, warranties, covenants, obligations and agreements of the parties, and an indemnified party’s or person’s right to indemnification or other remedy with respect thereto or otherwise under this Section 2.09, are not be affected or deemed waived by reason of any investigation made by or on behalf of such indemnified party or person, or respective Affiliates, or by reason of the fact that such indemnified party or person, or respective Affiliates knew or should have known that any such representation, warranty, covenant, obligation or agreement is, was or might be inaccurate, breached or not complied with, or by reason of such indemnified party’s or person’s waiver of any condition set forth in Section 2.09. 

(vii)  The parties intend for each representation, warranty, covenant, obligation, and agreement contained in this Agreement to have independent significance. If an inaccuracy exists in, or any party has breached, any representation, warranty, covenant, obligation or agreement contained in this Agreement in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) that is accurate or such party has not breached is not to detract from or mitigate the fact that an inaccuracy exists in, or such party is in breach of, the first representation, warranty, covenant, obligation or agreement. 

(vii)  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no party shall be entitled to recover punitive or exemplary damages, or loss of future income or loss of appreciation of assets or investments or securities, from any other party, except to the extent such party is required to pay such damages to a third-party in connection with any Proceeding made or brought by any person who is not a party, an Affiliate of a party, or an Affiliate of a party (a “Third-Party Claim”). This Section 2.09(d)(viii) does not apply to or govern any assumption of the Debt by LLC under Section 2.05(c) above

(e)  Procedure for Indemnification – Third-Party Claims.

If an Indemnified Person receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any Proceeding for a Third-Party Claim against such Indemnified Person with respect to which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Person shall give the Indemnifying Party prompt written notice of such Third-Party Claim. “Prompt” means within seven (7) days after the first date on which the Indemnified Person learns about or reasonably should know about the Third-Party Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice will not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure or a court finds the delay unfairly prejudiced the Indemnifying Party by substantially increasing the liability of the Indemnifying Party or significantly hampered or adversely affected the ability of the Indemnifying Party to assert any viable defense against the Third-Party Claim. The notice by the Indemnified Person must describe the Third-Party Claim and claimants in reasonable

CONFIDENTIALPage 9 

ACQUISITION AGREEMENT

detail and must indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Damages that have been or could be sustained by the Indemnified Person. 

(ii)  The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, or by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days after being notified of a Third-Party Claim by the Indemnified Person in accordance with Section 2.09(e) and unconditionally acknowledging in writing the Indemnifying Party’s indemnification obligations to the Indemnified Person with respect to such Third-Party Claim, to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s expense and by the Indemnifying Party’s own legal counsel (such legal counsel must be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Person), and the Indemnified Person shall cooperate in good faith in the defense of the Third-Party Claim. The Indemnified Person shall have the right, at its or his or her own cost and expense, to participate in the defense of any Third-Party Claim with legal counsel selected by the Indemnified Person subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof and, in any event, the Indemnifying Party shall keep the Indemnified Person fully apprised as to the status of such defense. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim or fails to timely notify the Indemnified Person in writing of the Indemnifying Party’s election to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim as provided in this Agreement, the Indemnified Person shall be entitled to, subject to Section 2.09(d), pay, compromise and defend such Third-Party Claim and seek indemnification for any and all Damages based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of such Third-Party Claim. Parties shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third-Party Claim, including making available records relating to such Third-Party Claim (to the extent permitted by applicable legal requirements) and making available, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees of the non-defending party in such a manner as not to unreasonably interfere with the normal operations of the non-defending party, as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third-Party Claim. 

(iii)  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if (A) the Indemnifying Party is given notice of a Third-Party Claim in compliance with Section 2.09 (e)(i) and fails to notify the Indemnified Person of the Indemnifying Party’s election to defend such Third-Party Claim within the time prescribed in Section 2.09(e)(ii) or fails to unconditionally acknowledge in writing the Indemnifying Party’s indemnification obligations to the Indemnified Person with respect to such Third-Party Claim, (B) the claim for indemnification is based upon, arises out of, is with respect to or is by reason of any criminal or quasi-criminal Proceeding, (C) the relief sought in connection with the Third-Party Claim is not solely monetary damages, (D) the Indemnified Person reasonably concludes, based upon advice of legal counsel, that either a conflict exists between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Person in connection with the defense of the Third-Party Claim or there are legal defenses available to the Indemnified Person that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party, or (E) the defense of the Third-Party Claim is not instituted and continuously maintained in good faith by the Indemnifying Party, then, in any such case, the Indemnified Person is entitled to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim and assert a claim against the Indemnifying Party for indemnification with respect to such Third-Party Claim pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.09, with the reasonable costs and expenses of such defense to be included in the amount of Damages sought pursuant to such indemnification. The Indemnifying Party shall cooperate in good faith with the Indemnified Person with respect to the transfer of the defense of such Third-Party Claim from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Person in accordance with this Section 2.09(e)(iii).

(iv)  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into a settlement of any Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), except as provided in this Section 2.09(e). If a firm offer is made to settle a Third-Party Claim without leading to Liability or the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Person and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified Person from all Liabilities in connection with such

CONFIDENTIALPage 10 

ACQUISITION AGREEMENT

Third-Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Indemnifying Party shall give written notice to that effect to the Indemnified Person. If the Indemnified Person fails to consent in writing to such firm offer within fifteen (15) days after the Indemnified Person’s receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Person shall be entitled to continue to contest or defend such Third-Party Claim and, in such event, the maximum Liability of the Indemnifying Party as to such Third-Party Claim is not to exceed the amount of such settlement offer. If the Indemnified Person fails to consent to such firm offer and also fails to timely assume defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to settle the Third-Party Claim upon the terms set forth in such firm offer to settle such Third-Party Claim. If the Indemnified Person has assumed the defense of any Third-Party Claim pursuant to Section 2.09(e)(ii) or Section 2.09(e)(iii) and the Indemnifying Party has unconditionally acknowledged in writing the Indemnifying Party’s indemnification obligations to the Indemnified Person with respect to such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Person shall not agree to any settlement of such Third-Party Claim without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). 

(f)  Procedure for Indemnification – Direct Claims. Any claim by an Indemnified Person on account of Damages that do not result from a Third-Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) shall be asserted by the Indemnified Person by giving the Indemnifying Party prompt written notice thereof. “Prompt” means within twenty (20) days after the first date on which the Indemnified Person learns about or reasonably should know about the Third-Party Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure, or the liability of the Indemnifying Party is significantly increased by reason of such failure. The notice by the Indemnified Person must describe the Direct Claim and claimants in reasonable detail and must indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Damages that have been or could be sustained by the Indemnified Person. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. During such thirty (30) day period, the Indemnified Person shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its legal counsel or other representatives to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim and the Indemnified Person shall reasonably assist the Indemnifying Party’s investigation by giving such information and assistance (including access to the Indemnified Person’s premises and personnel and the right to examine and copy any accounts, documents, files or records) as the Indemnifying Party or any of its legal counsel or other representatives reasonably requests, in each such case, in such a manner as not to unreasonably interfere with the normal operations or business of the Indemnified Person. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such thirty (30) day period, the Indemnifying Party is to be deemed to have rejected such Direct Claim, in which case the Indemnified Person shall be entitled to pursue such remedies as are available to the Indemnified Person on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement. 

2.10.   LLC Assets.   The LLC and each of the Sellers agrees, covenants and represents that the LLC assets, including all operating assets, oil and gas drilling and production rights, leases and agreements, owned or controlled by the LLC as of the Effective Date will remain and be the sole personal property of the LLC as of and after the consummation of the Closing, and the LLC will not be dissolved under laws of Mississippi or LLC Operating Agreement as a result of the Exchange.  Further, the LLC balance sheet as of the Effective Date and as of the Closing will be substantially the same, excepting usual and customary adjustments resulting from conduct of LLC business in the routine, normal conduct of business.
