ACQUISITION AND DISPOSITION OF ASSETS On February 10, 1997, Middle Bay Oil Company, Inc. (the "Registrant" or "Middle Bay") entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Bison Energy Corporation ("Bison") whereby Bison will be merged with a wholly-owned subsidiary of Middle Bay in exchange for Middle Bay common stock and cash. Bison, as the surviving corporation, would become wholly-owned by Middle Bay. Bison is a privately-owned domestic exploration and production company with assets located in Kansas and Oklahoma. Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, Middle Bay will issue 1,167,556 shares of its common stock and net cash consideration of $5.9 million, subject to adjustment, to Bison in exchange for the stock of Bison. Bison presently owns 562,000 shares of Middle Bay common stock, which shares would be cancelled upon consumation of the merger. Bison's value was determined by estimating the discounted reserve value of its properties and through negotiation. The cash portion of the consideration for the merger is being financed through the issuance of 1,000,000 shares of Middle Bay Series A Preferred Stock to Kaiser-Francis Oil Company ("Kaiser-Francis") for $6,000,000 ($6.00 per preferred share). The preferred shares will be issued on a private placement basis pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement dated September 4, 1996 between the Company and Kaiser-Francis, as reported in the Registrant's Form 8-K Current Report filed September 19, 1996. The Bison merger is expected to add an estimated 606,681 barrels of oil and natural gas liquids and 2.58 billion cubic feet of natural gas to Middle Bay's reserves. Subsequent to the merger, Middle Bay will have total proved reserves of approximately 1,996,626, barrels of oil and Ngls, and 11,544,238 Mcf of Natural gas with a discounted value of $32,465,021. In addition, Middle Bay will acquire approximately 8,860 acres of undeveloped leases, an interest in the Spivey-Grabs gas processing plant and operating facilities in Attica, Kansas and Cushing, Oklahoma. The transaction has a discounted value of $10,000,000 according to Middle Bay's evaluation. Closing of the transaction is expected to occur on or before February 28, 1997. Bison's president and sole shareholder, C. J. Lett, III, is a party to the Agreement and Plan of Merger. Mr. Lett has agreed to continue as President and a Director of Bison, and he will be nominated for election as a Director of Middle Bay at the next annual meeting of shareholders.

Bison agrees that transfer of the Middle Bay Common Stock issuable to Bison and distributed to Lett at Closing shall be restricted for a period of 24 months from the Closing Date (the "Restriction Period"). None of those shares may be distributed, sold or transferred to any person during the Restriction Period.

Lett (and/or his successors in interest, if any) shall have the following rights with respect to registration of the Middle Bay Common Stock acquired hereby. (a) Piggyback Registration. If Middle Bay shall at any time or times determine to register under the 1933 Act any shares of its Common Stock (other than registration of common stock under stock option plans, stock ownership plans, or other employee benefit plans of Middle Bay or its subsidiaries) pursuant to an offering whereby Middle Bay will receive cash for the sale of such common stock, it will notify each former Bison shareholder in each case of such determination at least thirty (30) days prior to filing the registration statement and, upon the receipt of written request by such shareholders representing at least a majority of the Middle Bay Common Stock issued pursuant to the Merger given within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such notification, Middle Bay will use its best efforts to cause any of the Middle Bay Common Stock, as specified in such request to be registered under the 1933 Act pursuant to such registration statement, to the extent and under the condition that such registration is permissible under the 1933 Act and the rules and regulations thereunder; provided, however, that if the managing underwriter selected by Middle Bay advises Middle Bay in writing that, in its opinion, the inclusion of Middle Bay Common Stock requested to be included in such registration would materially adversely affect the distribution of all such common stock, then the former Bison shareholders shall not be permitted to register their Middle Bay Common Stock as specified in such request, but if such advice is not given at any time thereafter, both Middle Bay and the former Bison shareholders may sell Middle Bay Common Stock in the proposed distribution, with each party being entitled to sell a proportion of the number of shares to be sold by the former Bison shareholders and Middle Bay in its proposed distribution corresponding to the ratio that the number of shares proposed to be sold by such party bears to the aggregate number of shares proposed to be sold by former Bison shareholders and Middle Bay. - 8 - (b) Demand Registration. If Middle Bay shall at any time or times determine to register under the 1933 Act any shares of its common stock in connection with the acquisition of another company or an acquisition of assets, or if the number of Middle Bay Common Stock owned by Lett shall become less than ten percent (10%) of the issued and outstanding shares of Middle Bay Common Stock (other than as a consequence of the sale of Middle Bay Common Stock by Lett), it will notify Lett in each case of such determination at least thirty (30) days prior to filing the registration statement and, upon the receipt of Lett's written request given within fifteen (15) days after Lett's receipt of such notification, Middle Bay will use its best efforts to cause any of the Middle Bay Common Stock, as specified in such request to be registered under the 1933 Act pursuant to a separate registration statement for the purpose of permitting the sale of Lett's Middle Bay Common Stock in a secondary distribution, to the extent and under the condition that such registration is permissible under the 1933 Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, and to further use its best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement (including but not limited to the filing of such post-effective amendments, prospectus supplements, etc.) until such time as Lett will be eligible to sell the Middle Bay Common Stock pursuant to the terms of Rule 144(k) as promulgated under the 1933 Act. Lett's rights under this Section 7.3(b) are limited to one effective registration of Lett's Middle Bay Common Stock. (c) Expenses. Middle Bay shall pay all expenses incurred in connection with any registration pursuant to this Section 7.3, except that Lett and/or the other former Bison shareholders, as the case may be, shall pay for (i) any broker or underwriting commissions or discounts relating to Middle Bay Common Stock sold by such shareholders, and (ii) fees of counsel to such shareholders engaged separately from counsel to Middle Bay in connection with such registration. 7.4 RESTRICTIONS ON VOTING RIGHTS. Bison and Lett agree that for a period of 12 months following the Closing Date, voting rights with respect to the shares of Middle Bay Common Stock issuable to Bison's shareholders hereunder (or otherwise acquired by Lett) shall be limited as follows: (a) In connection with any vote taken or consent, wavier or ratification given in connection with the election or removal of directors of Middle Bay, Lett shall vote only that number of shares of Middle Bay Common Stock, regardless of any greater number of such shares owned by Lett or any entity controlled by Lett, in the aggregate, as shall represent 20% or less of the total number of shares of Middle Bay Common Stock issued and outstanding and eligible to vote at the time of any such vote, consent, waiver or ratification. (b) Each certificate representing the shares of Middle Bay Common Stock issuable to the Bison shareholders hereunder and delivered at Closing shall bear an appropriate legend regarding such voting restrictions, and such restrictions shall be appropriately noted on the stock transfer records of Middle Bay. - 9 - (c) For purposes of this Section 7.4, the number of shares of Middle Bay Common Stock owned by the former Bison shareholders shall include any shares of Middle Bay Common Stock presently owned by Bison or hereafter issued or distributed to any present shareholder of Bison. (d) In the event all or a portion of the Kaiser-Francis Preferred Shares or any preferred shares issued by Middle Bay to any other person are converted into Middle Bay Common Stock prior to 12 months from the Closing Date specified herein, the voting restrictions provided in this Section 7.4 shall be removed share-for-share with the conversion of the Kaiser-Francis Preferred Shares or other preferred shares (e.g., if Kaiser-Francis converts a portion of its Preferred Shares into 100,000 shares of common stock, the number of aggregate shares of Middle Bay Common Stock which may be voted by Lett hereunder shall be increased by 100,000 shares). (e) If Middle Bay issues additional shares of common stock as part of another merger or asset acquisition transaction following the Closing Date and any such merger or acquisition involves the issuance of Middle Bay Common Stock representing, after issuance, more than 20% of the then outstanding shares of Middle Bay Common Stock, if such shares are not made subject to voting restrictions substantially identical to those imposed by this Section 7.4, this Section 7.4 shall thereafter no longer apply.

Lett shall then have fifteen (15) days from the date of receipt by Lett of the Claim Notice (the "Notice Period") to notify Middle Bay (i) whether or not he disputes his liability to Middle Bay hereunder with respect to such claim or demand and (ii) notwithstanding any such dispute, whether or not he desires, at Lett's sole cost and expense, to defend Middle Bay against such claim or demand. (a) If Lett disputes his liability with respect to such claim or demand or the amount thereof (whether or not Lett desires to defend Middle Bay against such claim or demand as provided in subsections 13.3(b) and 13.3(c) below), such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with Section 13.5. Pending the resolution of any dispute by Lett of his liability with respect to any claim or demand, such claim or demand shall not be settled without the prior written consent of Middle Bay (given by Notice). (b) In the event that Lett notifies Middle Bay within the Notice Period that he desires to defend Middle Bay against such claim or demand, then, except as hereinafter provided, Lett shall have the right to defend Middle Bay by appropriate proceedings, which proceedings shall be promptly settled or prosecuted by Lett to a final conclusion in such manner as to avoid any risk of Middle Bay's becoming subject to liability for any other matter; provided, however, Lett shall not, without the prior written consent of Middle Bay (given by Notice), consent to the entry of any judgment against Middle Bay or enter into any settlement or compromise which does not include, as an unconditional term thereof, the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to Middle Bay of a release, in form and substance satisfactory to Middle Bay's counsel, from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation. If Middle Bay desires to participate in, but not control, any such defense or settlement, it may do so at its sole cost and expense.

(d) If Middle Bay should have a claim against Lett hereunder that does not involve a claim or demand being asserted against or sought to be collected from it by a third party, Middle Bay shall, within a reasonable time after discovery of such claim, send a Claim Notice with respect to such claim to Lett. If Lett disputes his liability with respect to such claim or demand, such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with Section 13.5 hereof; if Lett fails to notify Middle Bay within the Notice Period that he disputes such claim, the amount of such claim shall be conclusively deemed the undisputed liability of Lett hereunder. (e) All claims for indemnification by Lett under this Agreement shall be asserted and resolved under the procedures set forth above, substituting in the appropriate place "Lett" for "Middle Bay" and "Middle Bay" for "Lett" (and variations thereof). 13.4 PAYMENT. Upon determination of the liability under Section 13.3 or 13.5 hereof, the appropriate party shall pay to the other, as the case may be, within ten (10) days after such determination, the amount of any claim for indemnification made hereunder. 13.5 ARBITRATION.

Arbitration may be commenced at any time by any party hereto giving Notice to each other party to a dispute that such dispute has been referred to arbitration under this Section 13.5. The arbitrator shall be selected by the joint agreement of Lett and Middle Bay, but if they do not so agree within twenty (20) days after the date of the Notice referred to above, the selection shall be made pursuant to the rules from the panels of arbitrators maintained by such Association.

This provision for arbitration shall be specifically enforceable by the parties, and the decision of the arbitrator in accordance herewith shall be final and binding, and there shall be no right of appeal therefrom. Each party shall pay its own expenses of arbitration, and the expenses of the arbitrator shall be equally shared; provided, however, that if in the opinion of the arbitrator any claim for indemnification or any defense or objection thereto - 23 - was unreasonable, the arbitrator may assess, as part of his award, all or any part of the arbitration expenses of the other party (including reasonable attorneys' fees) and of the arbitrator against the party raising such unreasonable claim, defense or objection. (b) To the extent that arbitration may not be legally permitted or required hereunder and the parties to any dispute hereunder may not at the time of such dispute mutually agree to submit such dispute to arbitration, any party may commence a civil action in a court of competent jurisdiction to resolve disputes hereunder and to seek any appropriate remedy. Nothing contained in this Section 13.5 shall prevent the parties from settling any dispute by mutual agreement at any time. 13.6 OTHER RIGHTS AND REMEDIES NOT AFFECTED. The indemnification rights of the parties under this Article XIII are independent of and in addition to such rights and remedies as the parties may have at law or in equity or otherwise for any misrepresentation, breach of warranty or failure to fulfill any agreement or covenant hereunder on the part of any party hereto, including without limitation the right to seek specific performance, rescission or restitution, none of which rights or remedies shall be affected or diminished hereby. 13.7 LIMITATION ON INDEMNIFICATION BY LETT.
