Thanks for contacting us regarding the northwest corner(35 acres) of the above mentioned land tract. As discussed. our companies are in the process of obtaining approvals for a land development under Weld County lurisdicuoa You have brought to our attention that although your company has no plans to drill on this subject property, you would like to retain a drill site for possible future use. Please study the enclosed approved concept plan, the existing state and federal highways, and the new proposed state highway(frontage road). As shown,this comer of your 160 acre lease is slated for high use commercial services and a partial release of drilling rights in.this quadrant is in the best interest of this development. However, if drilling rights must be retained we request that they be confined to the southeast corner of this tract, in our open space and detention area. Please review this request and contact is at your earliest convenience. Sincerely. — John Davis Pro. BP Inc. Davis Graham & Stubbs LLP December 29, 2000 Weld County Planning Dept.

Section 26: Part of the NW4 Weld County, Colorado Dear Ms. Ogle: This firm represents HS Resources, Inc. and its affiliate, HS Gathering, LLC (collectively, "HS"). The purpose of this letter is to inform you of the property rights of HS, which may be affected by the above captioned rezoning request for a 15-lot planned unit development south of and adjacent to SH 66, and west of and adjacent to I-25 Frontage Road ("Property"). You should be aware that HS currently owns oil and gas leases covering all or a portion of the Property, including existing well(s) and the right to explore and develop oil and gas reserves underlying the Property. Enclosed with this letter is a copy of a Surface Use Notice and copies of the oil and gas leases covering the Property. Also enclosed is a plat that indicates allowable locations for future oil and gas development under Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission Rule 318A. HS also owns a 3" gas pipeline that runs to an existing well on the Property. The oil and gas lease provides for easements and rights of way across the Property. Any activity on HS's right of way is absolutely prohibited, and any approval plan concerning the planned development must consider HS's right (and safety need) to access the pipeline. HS is willing to enter into a specific right of way to define the existence of the pipeline with an as-built survey. HS believes that the oil and gas resources underlying the Property have significant value and is, therefore, concerned about any surface use or plan of use that would restrict or preclude the use and enjoyment of those rights by HS. HS is also concerned about the health and safety issues raised by any anticipated development.

Please note the distance that the destroyed battery traveled(158 feet). In these circumstances, HS's preferred practice is to meet with and attempt to conclude a mutually acceptable surface use agreement and right-of-way agreement with the surface owners or their agents. To this end,Don French of HS and John Davis of Lyons 66 Pacific met about a month ago and agreed that they would either determine an oil and gas operational area on the Property where HS can conduct its operations or Lyons 66 Pacific would pay HS to provide a surface use agreement wherein HS would agree not to drill any oil and gas wells on the subject lands (see copy of Mr. French's 12/7/00 letter to Mr. Davis, attached hereto.) Although it is crucial that this process occur prior to approval of the developer's application, at the present time no final agreement has been reached and no surface use agreements concerning HS's rights to explore for oil and gas in Section 26 are in place. In the absence of any such agreements, HS vigorously objects to any future surface development that fails to recognize and accommodate HS's access to, and utilization of, its valuable property rights in Section 26. HS requests that the Planning Department take into consideration the rights of HS for future development prior to approving the Lyons 66 Pacific rezoning request. Moreover, any future plans should incorporate and designate lands to be set aside for mineral development. HS hopes to conclude mutually acceptable surface use agreements with the current or future surface owners of the Property and looks forward to cooperating with the County to accomplish its land use planning goals.

We also reviewed Lyon's plans for the commercial development of the captioned lands. It was agreed that HSR and Lyon's would either determine an oil and gas operational area on the captioned lands or Lyons would pay HSR to provide Lyons with Surface Use Agreement wherein HSR would agree not to drill any oil and gas wells on the subject lands. HSR is willing to provide you with said Agreement upon your payment to HSR of$75.000. HSR is aware of the Weld County Planning hearing of January 2, 2001 concerning this development and will notify the planning department that their approval of the development should be contingent upon Lyon's and HSR entering into a Surface Use Agreement. We look forward to hearing from you as soon as possible so we can continue to coordinate HSR's interests and future operations with your development plans. Thank you again for your cooperation.
