RE: Participation Agreement

Xxxxx County, Texas
Dear Xxxxx:
When properly executed by you, this Participation Agreement will evidence the agreement made and entered into between WEJCO Exploration and Production, hereinafter referred to as 'WEJCO" and Alamo Energy, hereinafter referred to as "Participant", setting forth the terms and conditions under which WEJCO has agreed to sell and assign to Participant, subject to the burdens and reservations outlined in Paragraph I and VI herein below, an undivided twenty percent, (20%), working interest in the leasehold estate as described in Exhibit "A" attached hereto and made a part hereof; and a working interest in the Xxxxxx Re-entry Prospect, Xxxxxxx H-1 well, (Prospect), that is located in Xxxxx County, Texas. An Area of Mutual Interest ("AMI") is limited to a half mile radius surrounding the Prospect acreage. All exhibits attached hereto shall be made a part hereof for all purposes.
I. Participant Interest Acquisition: Enclosed herewith, WEJCO has submitted an invoice for your proportionate share of the geologic, land and seismic costs attributed to this prospect in the amount of $18,050; (20% x $90,250). WEJCO will provide an estimate of your share of the total Costs for the initial re-entry well in a detailed Authority for Expenditure (AFE), which will follow, once all interest is placed. Participant shall then pay to WEJCO (the Operator), your proportional share of that total Drilling and Completion costs, being twenty five percent, 20% x 1.25 = 25% working interest), to earn fifteen point six percent net revenue interest, (20% x 78% NRI = 15.6%) in the unit. This second invoice for the AFE will be due no later than thirty (30) days prior to the re-entry date and shall be paid by Participant in the form of a check made payable and delivered to the Operator.
It is understood that on the initial re-entry well drilled on the acreage, Participant shall bear a carried working interest burden in favor of WEJCO in the amount of twenty percent (20%) of eight eighths (8/8ths) of the working interest as to all costs incurred through completion and or plugging and abandonment in the event said well is a dry hole. All other costs thereafter shall be borne proportionately by WEJCO and Participant in accordance with the Model Form Operating Agreement and Xxxxx circulated by the Operator.

II. Initial Well: WEJCO and Participant have agreed to re-enter the Xxxxxxx H-1, to a depth of approximately 3400 feet or to a depth that will adequately tests the Lower Xxxxxx Series; at a legal location within the boundaries of the Xxxxxxx English Survey, Xxxxx County, Texas in accordance with the terms and conditions herein.
Operator hereby agrees to commence, or cause to be commenced, operations for the Initial Well as soon as practical after all interest has been placed and all funds have been received; and once operations are commenced, to prosecute the same with due diligence and in a good and workmanlike manner to a depth as the joint owners may deem necessary to adequately test the previously mentioned Xxxxxx Series as shown in the well log of the Wejco #H1
Xxxxxxx well, provided to the Participant. Such well shall be evaluated in accordance with reasonable and prudent Operator standards. Operator will manage all engineering services, including drilling and work over rigs, logging, cementing, perforating and any testing of the Initial Well and any Subsequent Xxxxx drilled on the lease and included within the Prospect AMI.
III. SUBSTITUTE WELL: If, in the drilling of the Initial Well provided for above, or any substitute therefore, Operator shall encounter conditions, substances or mechanical failure or difficulty which renders further drilling operations impracticable or unreasonably hazardous in the judgment of the joint owners, then Operator shall have the right but not the obligation to abandon such operations and commence the drilling of a Substitute Well at a mutually acceptable location on or before ninety (90) days from such abandonment and upon the commencement of such Substitute well, said operations, for all purposes hereunder, shall be considered as a replacement
of the drilling operations of the Initial Well. Furthermore, Operator's failure to reach Total Depth in the Initial Well or Substitute Well shall not result in damages to Operator or Operator's agents.
IV. WELL INFORMATION: Operator shall furnish daily reports by telephone, fax or email covering the preceding twenty-four (24) hours, advising of the shows of oil and/or gas encountered and the results of all testing and completion operations, and shall furnish Participant with sufficient notice prior to the running of any logs, or tests so that Participant and/or its agents may be present for such operations, if Participant so desires. Additionally, Operator shall furnish Participant one (1) copy of all logs, and one (1) copy of test results, test charts, and Texas Railroad Commission forms and reports filed in connection with the drilling and completion or plugging and abandonment of the Initial Well or Substitute Well drilled on the Leases and included within the Prospect AMI.
V. OPERATING AGREEMENT: Except as otherwise set forth herein, the rights and obligations agreed to by WEJCO and Participant and all operations shall be governed and controlled by the AAPL FORM 610-1989 MODEL FORM OPERATING AGREEMENT in which WEJCO is to be designated as the Operator. In the event a conflict or ambiguity should develop between the terms and conditions of such Operating Agreement and this Agreement, then the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall prevail and control.
VI. ASSIGNMENT: Simultaneously with the Participant paying its share of the estimated costs associated with the drilling of the Initial Well to contract depth, WEJCO shall assign to Participant with warranty of title by, through and under WEJCO only; twenty percent, (20%); of the undivided interest in the Leases with all rights acquired within the AMI, to all depths, excepting only the current producing units described in Exhibit "A". Participant will be delivered a seventy-eight percent, (78%), net revenue interest in the unit, proportionately reduced to the actual interest acquired.
