For avoidance of doubt,

3

nothing herein shall require Service Provider to perform any services or operations of any kind other than as set forth herein.

2.2.                            Scope of Services.

(a)                                 Except as expressly provided in Schedule A or Schedule B, (i) Service Provider shall have no authority with respect to the Serviced Properties and (ii) Service Provider shall be required to provide the Services only with respect to the Serviced Properties. Except as expressly provided in Schedule A or Schedule B and subject to Section 2.3, in providing, or causing to be provided, the Services, in no event shall Service Provider be obligated to do any of the following: (A) maintain the employment of any specific employee or hire additional employees; (B) purchase, lease or license any additional equipment (including computer equipment, furniture, furnishings, fixtures, machinery, vehicles, tools and other tangible personal property) or software; (C) make modifications to its existing systems or software; or (D) pay any costs related to the transfer or conversion of data of Buyer; provided, however, that unless Service Provider can reasonably continue to maintain the Standard of Care, if any employees that are engaged in the provision of Services cease working for Service Provider or are reassigned to other work by Service Provider, Service Provider shall take commercially reasonable efforts to replace such employees or otherwise to have the duties performed by such employees in connection with the Services continue to be provided, and that Service Provider shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make or cause to be made such repairs or modifications as are reasonably necessary to keep the equipment, systems or software owned by or otherwise in the control of the Service Provider and used in providing the Services in working order. Service Provider shall not be required to perform Services hereunder, and shall be excused from any non-performance of such Services, that conflict with any applicable Law, contract, permit, lease, order, security instrument or policy of Service Provider or to which Service Provider is subject relating to business conduct and ethical practices.

(b)                                 Buyer acknowledges and agrees, on its behalf and on behalf of the Acquired Operating Companies, that Service Provider and those providing such Services on its behalf have, and will have, responsibilities with respect to the other businesses of Service Provider and its Affiliates and may not be dedicated full time to providing the Services.

(c)                                  At all times during the performance of the Services, all Persons performing such Services (including agents, temporary employees, Third Parties and consultants) shall be construed as being independent from Buyer, and such Persons shall not be considered or deemed to be an employee of Buyer or any of its Affiliates nor entitled to any employee benefits of Buyer or any of its Affiliates as a result of this Agreement.

2.3.                            Standard of Care.

(a)                                 Service Provider shall use its reasonable best efforts to ensure that the Services to be provided hereunder (including any Services provided by a Third Party) shall be performed with the degree of care, diligence and skill as a reasonably prudent Person involved in the acquisition, development and management of mineral and royalty interests in oil and natural gas properties comparable to those of the Serviced Properties would exercise (the “Standard of Care”).

4

(b)                                 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, Service Provider does not represent or warrant the outcome or result with respect to the Services, except as expressly set forth herein.

(c)                                  BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT SERVICE PROVIDER IS NOT IN THE BUSINESS OF PROVIDING THE SERVICES AND THAT SERVICE PROVIDER IS PROVIDING THE SERVICES AS AN ACCOMMODATION TO BUYER FOLLOWING THE CONSUMMATION OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED IN THE PURCHASE AGREEMENTS. THE SERVICES TO BE PROVIDED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT ARE FURNISHED WITHOUT WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

2.4.                            Service Coordinator. Buyer and Service Provider shall nominate in writing a representative to act as the primary contact with respect to the provision of the Services and the resolution of disputes under this Agreement (each such person, a “Service Coordinator”). The initial Service Coordinators shall be Matthew S. Daly for Buyer and Vasilis Mouratoff for Service Provider (or their designated delegates). Unless Service Provider and Buyer otherwise agree in writing, Service Provider and Buyer agree that all notices and communications relating to this Agreement other than those day-to-day communications and billings relating to the actual provision of the Services shall be delivered to the Service Coordinators in accordance with Section 7.3 hereof. The Service Coordinators shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to meet as expeditiously as possible to resolve any dispute hereunder.

2.5.                            Cooperation. The Parties shall cooperate with one another and provide such further assistance as the other Party may reasonably request in connection with the provision of Services hereunder. During the term of this Agreement and for so long as any Services are being provided with respect to the Serviced Properties by Service Provider, Service Provider and Buyer shall provide the other Party and its authorized representatives reasonable access, during regular business hours upon reasonable notice, to it and its employees, representatives, facilities and books and records to the extent reasonably necessary in order to perform the Services. Buyer hereby acknowledges that the cooperation of Buyer and the Acquired Operating Companies is essential to Service Provider’s provision of the Services hereunder and agrees that, to the extent that Service Provider’s failure to perform the Services in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including the Standard of Care, is caused by the failure of Buyer and the Acquired Operating Companies to cooperate in provision of the Services, such failure shall be deemed waived by Buyer.

2.6.                            Remittance of Amounts Collected. To the extent Service Provider shall have charge or possession of any of Buyer’s assets in connection with the provision of the Services pursuant to this Agreement, Service Provider shall (a) hold such assets in the name and for the benefit of Buyer (or its designated Affiliates) and (b) separately maintain, and not commingle, such assets with any assets of Service Provider, Sellers or any other Person. Within five (5) Business Days of the Effective Date, Service Provider shall use its reasonable best efforts to transfer access and title to all lockbox accounts and other bank or deposit accounts used in connection with the Serviced Properties to Buyer, such that Buyer has exclusive control over and access to all such accounts; provided, that to the extent that Wells Fargo Bank, National Association does not permit the transfer of access or title of such accounts, Service Provider shall use its reasonable best efforts to

5

work with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association to attempt to find a solution. For the avoidance of doubt, the accounts described in the preceding sentence shall include, but shall not be limited to, the accounts described on Schedule C to this Agreement.

2.7.                            Termination of Services. The obligations of Service Provider under this Agreement to provide (a) the Full Term Services shall terminate on the End Date and (b) the Short Term Services shall terminate on the date that is ninety (90) days after the Effective Date (each of (a) and (b), a “Services Term”).

ARTICLE III
FEES AND EXPENSES

3.1.                            Services Fees; Signing Fee.

(a)                                 During the applicable Services Term, Buyer shall pay to Service Provider a monthly fee with respect to each Service equal to the amount set forth next to such Service on Schedule A and Schedule B (each such fee, a “Services Fee” and, collectively, the “Services Fees”). Buyer shall remit payment to Service Provider for the applicable Services Fees for such month within five (5) days of the beginning of each month; provided, however, that if the Effective Date is other than the first day of a calendar month, then the applicable Services Fees for such month shall be remitted to Service Provider within five (5) days of the Effective Date. If the Effective Date is other than the first day of a calendar month, or if the term of this Agreement ends on any day other than the last day of a calendar month, the amount of the Services Fees that Buyer shall owe for any such month shall be prorated on a daily basis

(b)                                 Within ten (10) days of the Effective Date, Buyer shall remit a one-time payment of $600,000 to Service Provider (the “Signing Fee”) to be used by Service Provider in the retention of employees, consultants and contractors engaged by Service Provider in the provision of the Services.

3.2.                            Third Party Fees. Buyer shall reimburse Service Provider for documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses reasonably incurred by Service Provider and paid to any Third Party solely as a result of providing the Services hereunder (and not otherwise reimbursed to Service Provider, including under the Services Fees) (the “Third Party Expenses”); provided, however, that Service Provider shall not incur Third Party Expenses in excess of $25,000 during any month without the prior written consent of Buyer, and Buyer shall have no obligation to reimburse Service Provider for any such Third Party Expenses for which Buyer did not provide its prior written consent.

3.3.                            Invoicing for Third Party Fees. As soon as reasonably practicable after the end of each month, Service Provider shall provide Buyer with an invoice (each, an “Invoice”) for the preceding month reflecting (a) the Third Party Expenses incurred during such month and (b) the amount due for Taxes pursuant to Section 3.7 (collectively, the “Fees”). Buyer shall remit to Service Provider the Fees billed to it within fifteen (15) days of receipt of the applicable Invoice. By way of example, the first such Fees shall be due and payable on or before the fifteenth (15th) day after the first Invoice is received by Buyer and (ii) the last Invoice shall be due and payable on or before the fifteenth (15th) day after the last Invoice is received by Buyer. Each Invoice shall

6

be directed to Buyer’s Service Coordinator or such other person designated in writing from time to time by such Service Coordinator. The Invoice shall set forth the Fees due in reasonable detail for the period covered by such Invoice. Upon written request, Service Provider shall promptly provide to Buyer reasonable support documentation to permit Buyer to verify the accuracy of an Invoice.

3.4.                            Objection. Except to the extent such expense or cost was previously approved by Buyer in writing (including via email), Buyer may object to any expense or cost included on an Invoice, including on the ground that the same was not a reasonable or appropriate cost incurred by Service Provider in connection with the Services; provided that such objection is made in writing to Service Provider within fifteen (15) days following the date of Buyer’s receipt of the disputed Invoice.

3.5.                            Dispute Resolution. In the event of an invoicing or payment dispute not otherwise resolved between the Service Coordinators, Buyer shall promptly notify Service Provider in writing of such disputed item and the reasons for the dispute. The Parties shall, during the fifteen (15) days after such notice, use their commercially reasonable efforts to reach agreement on the disputed items or amounts. If the Parties are unable to reach agreement within such period, they shall promptly thereafter cause a nationally recognized accounting firm agreeable to the Parties (the “Accounting Referee”) to review this Agreement and the disputed items or amounts. The Accounting Referee shall deliver to the Parties as promptly as practicable (but in any event no later than thirty (30) days from the date of engagement of the Accounting Referee), a report setting forth the Accounting Referee’s determination of the appropriate resolution of the disputed items or amounts. Such determination shall be final and binding upon the Parties absent manifest error. The cost of such review and report shall be borne equally by each Party involved in the dispute.

3.6.                            Error Correction. Each Party shall make adjustments to charges as required to reflect the discovery of undisputed errors or omissions in charges; provided, however, that any errors or omissions the correction of which would result in additional or increased charges or fees for Services must be corrected within three (3) months after the date of payment of the applicable Services Fees or the related Invoice, as applicable.

3.7.                            Taxes. All transfer taxes, excises, fees or other charges (including value added, sales, use or receipts taxes, but not including a tax on or measured by the income, net or gross revenues, business activity or capital of Service Provider), or any increase therein, now or hereafter imposed directly or indirectly by Law, which Service Provider is required to pay or incur in connection with the provision of Services hereunder (“Tax”), shall be passed on to Buyer as an explicit surcharge and shall be paid by Buyer in addition to any payment to cover expenses and costs related to the Services provided. If Buyer submits to Service Provider a timely and valid resale or other exemption certificate reasonably acceptable to Service Provider and sufficient to support the exemption from any applicable Tax, then such Tax shall not be added to the Fees pursuant to Section 3.3, provided, however, that if Service Provider is ever required to pay such Tax, Buyer shall promptly reimburse Service Provider for such Tax, including any interest,

7

penalties and attorney’s fees related thereto. The Parties shall cooperate to minimize the imposition of any Taxes.

ARTICLE IV
