Section 11.

Joint Venture.


a.

The JV Funds held in escrow shall be used solely to purchase and develop certain oil and gas assets located in the State of Michigan agreed upon by each of the



-3-




Lender, the Company and App Energy or any other assets mutually agreed upon (such assets, the “Michigan Assets”; such joint development of the Michigan Assets, the “Joint Venture”).  Unless otherwise agreed, each party shall hold their interest in the form of a working interest in the Michigan Assets in the following percentages (respective to each other): Lender – 40%, the Company – 30%, and App Energy – 30%.  The parties’ respective obligations with respect to the Joint Venture shall be documented in an operating agreement among them.  The portion of JV Funds used to acquire the working interest of each of App Energy and the Company in the Michigan Assets shall be deemed a loan to each company as described in subsection c, below (each loan, a “JV Loan”).


b.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lender and the Company agree, and any escrow agreement with respect to the escrow account holding the JV Funds shall provide, that if the JV Funds are not fully invested in the Michigan Assets by June 30, 2017, the uninvested portion shall be paid to the Lender.


c.

Each JV Loan shall consist of a senior secured loan and the Lender and the Company shall work in good faith to document the loan between them within 60 days following the Effective Time.  Each borrower’s loan shall be on terms no less favorable to the borrower than the Loan Agreement, shall have a maturity date of February 28, 2020, shall be equal to the amount paid for such borrower’s working interest in the Michigan Assets and shall be secured by such borrower’s working interest in the Michigan Assets.  The JV Loan to the Company shall be pari passu with the Loan Agreement.


Section 12.  Convertible Preferred Stock.  Following the Effective Time, and without requiring any further action by the Lender, the Company shall use its best efforts to issue shares of senior preferred equity of the Company (the “Preferred Equity”) in exchange for the reduction and termination of the Obligations as described in Section 4.c.  The Preferred Equity shall be issued based on a price of $1 per share, shall have a 7.5% per annum payment-in-kind dividend and shall be convertible at the Lender’s sole option into fully paid common stock of the Company at a per-share conversion price equal to the prior 10-day average common stock trading price at the time the preferred equity is issued.  Aside from the Loan and the JV Loan, the Preferred Equity shall be the most senior security in the capital structure; provided, however, that the Lender acknowledges and agrees that the Preferred Equity may not be issued without, and shall be subject to, the approval of the holders of Series A Preferred Stock of the Company. Further, the payment of stock dividends shall be subject to the availability of authorized, unissued and unreserved shares, although the Company agrees to use its best efforts to authorize more preferred shares if needed for the purpose of fulfilling this obligation. The terms of the preferred equity shall include a liquidation preference and a ratchet provision with respect to the conversion price, as well as whatever negative covenants including the further issuance of preferred shares and debt as many be agreeable between the Lender and the Company. The Preferred Equity grant may contain a provision blocking the Lender from converting some or all of such Preferred Equity to common shares, to the extent that, following such conversion, the Lender would be being deemed to be the “beneficial owner” (as such term is defined in Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) of more than four and ninety-nine one-hundredths percent (4.99%) of the Company’s outstanding common stock.



-4-




Section 13.  Waiver.  The Lender hereby waives any Event of Default based on the Company’s failure prior to the date hereof to pay any principal, interest or Commitment Fees when due under the Loan Agreement.  Further, the Lender waives any failure or noncompliance under the Loan Agreement relating to the transactions contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement or this Agreement, including but not limited to the failure to give proper notice of the APA Payment.


Section 14.  Further Assurances.  Each party hereto agrees to perform any and all further acts and to execute and deliver any documents which may reasonably be necessary to carry out the provisions of this Agreement.


Section 15.  Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to its conflict of laws rules.


Section 16.  Binding Effect.  This Agreement is binding on, and will inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective successors, permitted assigns, heirs, and legal representatives.


Section 17.  Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which, taken together, shall constitute one and the same agreement.


Section 18.  Entire Agreement.  This Agreement contains the entire agreement of the parties and embodies all the representations and warranties which have been made between them with respect to the subject matter hereof.  All previous agreements or understandings between the parties hereto with respect to its subject matter, whether in writing or oral, are merged into this Agreement.


Section 19.  Severability.  In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained herein shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions of this Agreement, but this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions had never been contained herein, unless the deletion of such provision or provisions would result in such a material change so as to cause completion of the transactions contemplated herein to be unreasonable.
