13.02		Independent Evaluation: Except and to the extent provided in clause 13.01, Seller does not warrant or represent title to the Assets or make representations or warranties with respect to: (i) the quantity, quality or recoverability of Petroleum Substances respecting the Lands; (ii) any estimates of the value of the Assets or the revenues applicable to future production from the Lands; (iii) any engineering, geological or other interpretations or economic evaluations respecting the Assets; (iv) the rates of production of Petroleum Substances from the Lands; (v) the quality, condition or serviceability of the Assets; or (vi) the suitability of the use of the Assets for any purpose. Purchaser acknowledges that it has made its own independent investigation, analysis, evaluation and inspection of Seller’s interest in the Assets and the state and condition thereof and that it has relied solely on such investigation, analysis, evaluation and inspection as to its assessment of the condition and value of the Assets and that, except as provided in clause 13.01, it is purchasing the Assets on an “as is, where is, with all faults and without recourse” basis.
13.03		Disclaimers: Except for Seller’s express representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, the Assets are being conveyed by Seller to Purchaser without warranty of any kind, express, implied, statutory, common law or otherwise, and the Parties hereby expressly disclaim, waive and release any express warranty of merchantability, condition or safety and any expressed warranty of fitness for a particular purpose; and Purchaser accepts the Assets “as is, where is, with all faults and without recourse.” Except for the description of the Assets in the Schedules attached to this Agreement, all descriptions of the Assets, heretofore or hereafter furnished to Purchaser by Seller have been and shall be furnished solely for Purchaser’s convenience and have not constituted and shall not constitute a representation or warranty of any kind by Seller. Seller shall have no liability to Purchaser for any claims, loss or damage caused or alleged to be caused directly or indirectly, incidentally or consequentially, by any such Assets by any inadequacy thereof or therewith, arising in strict liability or otherwise, or in any way arising out of Purchaser’s purchase thereof. The Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that, to the extent required by applicable law, the disclaimers contained in this Agreement are “conspicuous” for the purposes of such applicable law.
13.04		Consumer Statutes: The Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that they are not “consumers” within the meaning of any applicable deceptive trade practices or consumer protection act, or any similar statute. Purchaser hereby expressly disclaims, waives and releases all of its rights and remedies under all such laws and any other law that gives consumers special rights and protections. After consultation with an attorney of its own selection, Purchaser voluntarily consents to this waiver and release. To evidence its ability to grant such waiver, Purchaser represents to Seller that: (a) Purchaser is not in a significantly disparate bargaining position; (b) Purchaser is represented by legal counsel in

13

entering into this Agreement; and (c) such legal counsel was not directly or indirectly identified, suggested, or selected by Seller or an agent of Seller.

ARTICLE 14
PURCHASER’S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

14.01 Purchaser’s Representations and Warranties: Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to and with Seller at the date hereof, which representations and warranties will be true and correct as at the Closing Date, that:

	(a)		Requisite Authority: Purchaser has all requisite power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to purchase and pay for the Assets on the terms described herein and to perform the obligations of Purchaser under this Agreement;
	(b)		No Conflict: the execution and delivery of this Agreement will not violate, nor be in conflict with any provision of any material agreement or instrument to which Purchaser is a party or is bound or any judgment, decree, order, statute, rule or regulation applicable to Purchaser or the constating documents of Purchaser;
	(c)		Execution and Enforceability: this Agreement and all other documents delivered hereunder have been duly executed and constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of Purchaser enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, subject to equitable limitations on the availability of remedies and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, winding up, liquidation, reorganization, moratorium, or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally; and
	(d)		Finders’ Fees: Purchaser has not incurred any obligation or liability, contingent or otherwise, for brokers’ or finders’ fees in respect of this transaction for which Seller shall have any obligation or liability.
	(e)		Financial Ability: Purchaser has sufficient cash, available lines of credit or other sources of immediately available funds to enable it to pay the Purchase Price to Seller at the Closing. Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters and in oil and gas exploration projects of the type contemplated by this Agreement that Purchaser is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of this Agreement and its investment in the Assets, and Purchaser is not in need of the protection afforded investors by the securities laws. In addition, Purchaser is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Purchaser recognizes that this investment is speculative and involves substantial risk and that Seller has not made any guaranty upon which Purchaser has relied concerning the possibility or probability of profit or loss as a result of Purchaser’s acquisition of the Assets.
	(f)		Investment Experience: by reason of Purchaser’s experience and knowledge in the evaluation, acquisition and operation of similar properties, Purchaser has evaluated the merits and risks of the proposed investment in the Assets, and has formed an opinion based solely upon Purchaser’s experience and knowledge, and not upon any

14

representations or warranties by Seller, other than as expressly set forth in this Agreement.

(g) Condition: Purchaser is provided the opportunity to conduct an independent inspection of the Assets, the public records and the Records, including without limitation for the purpose of detecting the presence of any environmentally hazardous substance or contamination, including petroleum, and the presence and concentration of naturally-occurring radioactive materials and satisfied itself as to the physical condition and environmental condition of the Assets, both surface and subsurface. Purchaser acknowledges that, except as set forth in this Agreement, no representations have been made by Seller regarding environmental conditions or physical conditions, past or present.

15.02		Liability Limited: Seller’s total liability for breach of any or all representations or warranties set forth in clause 13.01 shall be limited twenty five percent (25%) of the Purchase Price. The monetary limit in this clause shall not apply to any misrepresentation of material fact contained in this Agreement, the exhibits and schedules hereto or the Records which constitutes fraud pursuant to applicable law.
15.03		Knowledge: Neither Party shall have any liability for any breach of the representations and warranties set forth in clauses 13.01 and 14.01, if: (a) such breach, or misrepresentation shall have been waived by the other Party; or (b) such other Party had knowledge of such breach or misrepresentation at or before the Closing.
15.04		Monetary Damages: The Parties acknowledge that the payment of money, as limited by the terms of this Agreement, shall be adequate compensation for breach of any representation or warranty contained herein or for any other claim arising in connection with or with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. As the payment of money shall be adequate compensation, the Parties hereby waive any right to rescind this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby after the Closing.
15.05		No Consequential Damages: Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, neither Party shall be entitled to seek or obtain any remedy or award for punitive, exemplary, indirect or consequential damages including, without limitation, damages for lost sales, profits or income.
