Dear Royalty Owner:
SEP 0 9 2021
WELD COUNTY
COMMISSIONERS
Noble Energy, Inc. ("Noble") recently filed an application with the Colorado Oil and Gas
Conservation Commission ("COGCC" or "Commission") to unitize the below -listed lands in Weld
County, Colorado for horizontal well development of the Niobrara, Fort Hays, Codell and
Carlile Formations:
Township 8 North, Range 61 West, 6th P.M.
Sections 2-14: All
Section 23: All
Township 9 North, Range 60 West, 6th P.M.
Section 19: All
Section 30: N%2
Township 9 North, Range 61 West, 6th P.M.
Sections 23-29: All
Section 31-35: All
Consisting of approximately 17,479.96 acres, more or less, Unnamed Field,
Weld County, Colorado. These lands are sometimes referred to as the
"West Pony Unit."
The application was filed on April 1, 2021 and is currently under review by COGCC Staff. Noble
is excited about the prospect of establishing the West Pony Unit and believes unitization will
benefit all mineral owners and working interest owners within the West Pony Unit.
Noble is writing to you as a mineral owner in the West Pony Unit, and is seeking your support for
this project which will allow Noble to increase the overall recovery of hydrocarbons in this acreage
in a manner that best minimizes impacts to surface owners, building unit owners, and the
surrounding community. This application will be sent to you, along with a Notice of Hearing
prepared by COGCC, in the days or weeks ahead.
Unitizing lands and minerals involves the consolidation of mineral and working interests in an area
in order to form a single operating unit for mineral development. In Colorado, the COGCC may
approve an application for unitization following notice and a hearing as set forth under the Oil and
Gas Conservation Act ("Act"). See Colorado Revised Statutes § 34-60-118.

As a mineral owner in Colorado, you may be familiar with the traditional oil and gas permitting
process involving spacing and pooling lands for subsurface mineral development. Spacing units
typically involve a smaller subset of minerals (for horizontal well development, often 640 acres to
2,560 acres). When the COGCC issues an order spacing lands for subsurface mineral
development, the order also sets forth the maximum number of wells that may be drilled in the
spacing unit, the location of the wells, and the wellbore orientation. Unlike spacing, unitization of
minerals often involves a larger area of land and does not expressly limit the number or location
of wells that may be drilled in the unit area. An order unitizing lands for cooperative development
also designates a single party as the operator of the unit area.
There are numerous benefits of unitization to the operator, working interest owners and partners,
and mineral owners. A few of the benefits of establishing the West Pony Unit are highlighted
below:
• The West Pony Unit will designate a single company, Noble Energy, as the operator of the
approximate 17,479.96 -acre unit, thereby creating certainty for all stakeholders regarding
the company conducting operations. A single operator will minimize or mitigate impacts
from oil and gas operations that would otherwise be caused by multiple operators
developing acreage in a piece -meal manner.
• Unlike traditional drilling and spacing units and pooling orders, the West Pony Unit
Agreement and associated order of the COGCC will require Noble to drill a well in the
West Pony Unit within one year of the unit's approval. Noble will also be required to
conduct continuous drilling operations beginning three years after the initial production
date of the test well through the Initial Term of the West Pony Unit. This will result in
drilling and production from the unit area for the benefit of the mineral owners within the
West Pony Unit. If Noble fails to comply with these mandatory continuous drilling
operations requirements, the West Pony Unit will terminate.
• The West Pony Unit enables Noble to maximize recovery of minerals, and therefore
maximize royalties to mineral owners, by eliminating well location requirements within
the unit area. In this way, Noble may adjust drilling plans and completions designs as
technology changes and improves without limitation.
• Establishing the West Pony Unit creates an economy of scale, which will drive down the
overall cost of drilling and completing individual wells in the unit area. This will allow
Noble to drill and produce wells in areas of the West Pony Unit with lower quality rock,
which will increase the overall production of minerals within the entire unit.
• Establishing the West Pony Unit for subsurface development allows Noble to move
forward with proposing and establishing a Comprehensive Area Plan governing the siting
of oil and gas locations within the unit area. A Comprehensive Area Plan will identify
foreseeable impacts from oil and gas operations and minimize or mitigate the impacts
following input from all stakeholders.

A COGCC order authorizing unit operations (i.e. unitization) is only effective if the plan for unit
operations is approved by at least 80% of the owners required to bear the costs of unit operations
and approved by at least 80% of the owners of non -cost bearing interests in the unit (i.e.
mineral/royalty owners). According to Noble's information, you own minerals within portions of
the proposed West Pony Unit. Accordingly, Noble is providing you with this Ratification Packet
for review and approval as part of the unitization process. Enclosed in this packet you will find a
copy of the Unit Agreement that will govern operations in the West Pony Unit. This packet
includes copies of Exhibits A, B and D to the Unit Agreement. Exhibits C and E are available
upon request.
Also included in this packet is a Ratification, Approval, and Joinder of Unit Agreement. Please
review the enclosed Unit Agreement and contact Noble at the email address or phone number
below if you have questions or concerns.
If you support Noble's request for unitization for the West Pony Unit, please sign the enclosed
Ratification, Approval, and Joinder of Unit Agreement and return a copy to Noble in the stamped
envelope included with this packet at your earliest convenience. Please also confirm with us via
email or by telephone that you have mailed an executed copy of the Ratification, Approval, and
Joinder of the Unit Agreement so we can verify receipt.
Noble is excited about the prospect of establishing the West Pony Unit and believes unitization
will benefit all mineral owners and working interest owners within the West Pony Unit.
Unitization will allow Noble to increase the overall recovery of hydrocarbons in this acreage in a
manner that best minimizes impacts to surface owners, building unit owners, and the surrounding
community.
We hope to hear from you soon and thank you in advance for your consideration of this proposal.
Sincerely,
/s/

THE WEST PONY UNIT AREA
COUNTY OF WELD
STATE OF COLORADO
THIS AGREEMENT, entered into as of the ON_day of A P r: 1 2021, by and
between the parties subscribing, ratifying, or consenting hereto, and herein referred to as the
"Parties."
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, the Parties hereto are the owners of working, royalty, or other oil and gas
interests in the Unit Area subject to this agreement; and
WHEREAS, the Unitized Land is within the jurisdiction of the State of Colorado, and
Sections 34-60-118, et seq., C.R.S., empower the Oil and Gas Conservation Commission of
the Department of Natural Resources of the State of Colorado, hereinafter referred to as the
"COGCC" or "Commission," upon application, to determine the need for and make orders
providing for the operation as a unit of one or more pools, or parts thereof, in a field after
approval by persons required to pay at least eighty percent (80%) of the costs of the unit
operation, and also by the owners of at least eighty percent (80%) of the production or
proceeds thereof that will be credited to interests which are free of cost, which said order
shall be binding on all Parties in said Unit Area; and
WHEREAS, the Parties hold sufficient interests in the West Pony Unit Area covering the
land hereafter described to give reasonably effective control of operations therein; and
WHEREAS, it is the purpose of the Parties to conserve natural resources, prevent waste, and
secure other benefits obtainable through development and operation of the area subject to this
agreement under the terms, conditions, and limitations herein set forth:
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and promises herein contained, the
Parties commit to this agreement their respective interests in the below -defined Unit Area,
and agree severally among themselves as follows:
1. ENABLING ACT AND REGULATIONS.
The Oil and Gas Conservation Act (COLO. REV. STAT. §§ 34-60-101-34-60-131, (2019))
("Act"), together with all current valid, pertinent regulations including operating and unit
plan regulations, issued thereunder, in effect as of the effective date of this agreement that
are not inconsistent with the terms of this agreement are accepted and made part of this
agreement.
2. UNIT AREA.
The area specified on the map and legal description attached hereto, marked Exhibit A,
is hereby designated and recognized as constituting the Unit Area, containing 17,479.96
acres, more or less.
Exhibit B shows, in addition to the boundary of the Unit Area, the boundaries and
identity of tracts in said area to the extent known to the Unit Operator. Exhibit C
attached hereto is a schedule showing to the extent known to the Unit Operator the
acreage, percentage, and kind of ownership of oil and gas interests in all lands in the
Unit Area. Exhibit D attached hereto, is a schedule showing the percentage of
participation credited to each tract in the Unit Area (tract means each parcel of land
described as such and given a tract number in Exhibit C) ("Tract Participation").
Nothing herein or in Exhibits A, B, C, and D shall be construed as a representation by
any Party hereto as to the ownership of any interest other than such interest or interests
as are shown in the Exhibits as owned by such Party. Exhibits A, B, C, and D shall be
revised by the Unit Operator whenever changes in the Unit Area or in the ownership
interests in the individual tracts render such revision necessary.
The above -described Unit Area shall when practicable be expanded to include therein
any additional lands or shall be contracted to exclude lands whenever such expansion or
contraction is deemed to be necessary or advisable to conform with the purposes of this
agreement. Such expansion or contraction shall be effected in the following manner:
(a) Unit Operator, on its own motion, shall prepare a notice of proposed
expansion or contraction describing the contemplated changes in the boundaries of the
Unit Area, the reasons therefore, any plans for additional drilling, and the proposed
effective date of the expansion or contraction, preferably the first day of the month
subsequent to the date of notice.
(b) Said notice shall be filed with the Commission, and copies thereof mailed
to the last known address of each Working Interest Owner, lessee and lessor whose
interests are affected, advising that 30 days will be allowed for submission to the Unit
Operator or Commission of any objections.
(c) Unit Operator shall comply with all procedural requirements of the
Commission with respect to unit expansion or contraction as set forth in the Act and
COGCC, regulations.
Nothing contained in this section shall prohibit or restrict automatic contraction of the Unit
Area pursuant to Section 21 of this agreement should production cease from all or portions of
the Unit Area following the expiration of the Initial Tenn.
3. UNITIZED LAND AND UNITIZED SUBSTANCES.
All land now or hereafter committed to this agreement within the Unit Area shall
constitute land referred to herein as "Unitized Land" or "land subject to this agreement."
At such time as authorization for unitization of such land has been obtained from the applicable
Working Interest Owners and Royalty Owners, such land shall be considered Unitized Land,
effective as of the date of approval of this agreement by the Commission. All oil and gas in the
Codell, Niobrara, Ft. Hays, and Carlile Shale formations, whether commingled or produced
separately ("Unitized Formations") of the Unitized Land is hereby unitized under the terms of
this agreement, so that all operations conducted by the Unit Operator under this agreement
("Unit Operations") may be conducted as if the Unit Area had been included in a single lease
executed by all Royalty Owners, as lessors, in favor of all Working Interest Owners, as lessees,
and as if the lease contained all of the provisions of this agreement. All oil, gas, gaseous
substances, sulphur contained in gas, condensate, distillate, and all associated and constituent
hydrocarbons within or produced from the Unitized Lands shall be referred to herein as
"Unitized Substances."
The term "Working Interest Owner" as used herein shall mean the owner of an interest
held in Unitized Substances as that term is defined above, or in lands containing
Unitized Substances by virtue of a lease, operating agreement, fee title, or otherwise,
which is chargeable or burdened with, or, the ownership of which obligates the owner
thereof to pay all or a portion of the costs of drilling for, developing, producing, and
operating the land under the unit or cooperative agreement for the production of Unitized
Substances. The term "Royalty Owner" as used herein shall mean an owner with the
right to, or an interest in, any portion of the Unitized Substances or proceeds thereof
other than a working interest.
4. METHOD OF OPERATION.
To the end that the quantity of Unitized Substances ultimately recoverable may be
increased and waste prevented, Unit Operator shall, with diligence and in accordance
with good engineering and production practices, engage in primary recovery operations,
including horizontal drilling, in the Unitized Formations to achieve that end.
5. CHANGE OF METHOD OF OPERATION.
Nothing herein shall prevent Unit Operator from discontinuing or changing in whole or
in part any method of operation which, in the Unit Operator's opinion, is no longer in
accord with good engineering or production practices. Other methods of operation may
be conducted or changes may be made by Unit Operator from time to time if determined
to be feasible, necessary, or desirable to increase the ultimate recovery of Unitized
Substances.
6. UNIT OPERATOR.
Noble Energy, Inc. ("Noble") is hereby designated as Unit Operator and by signature
hereto as Unit Operator agrees and consents to accept the duties and obligations of Unit
Operator for the discovery, development, and production of Unitized Substances as
herein provided. Unit Operator shall have the exclusive right to conduct Unit Operations,
which shall conform to the provisions of this agreement and the Unit Operating
Agreement and any other agreements existing between the Working Interest Owners at
the time the Unit is created. If there is a conflict between such other agreements and this
agreement, this agreement shall govern.
Whenever reference is made herein to the Unit Operator, such reference means the Unit
Operator acting in that capacity and not as an owner of interest in Unitized Substances,
and the tern "Working Interest Owner" when used herein shall include or refer to Unit
Operator as the owner of a working interest only when such an interest is owned by it.
7. RESIGNATION OR REMOVAL OF UNIT OPERATOR.
Unit Operator shall have the right to resign at any time prior to the establishment of the
first Drill Block (defined below) hereunder, but such resignation shall not become
effective so as to release Unit Operator from the duties and obligations of Unit Operator
and terminate Unit Operator's rights as such for a period of 6 months after notice of
intention to resign has been served by Unit Operator on all Working interest Owners and
the Commission and until all wells then drilled hereunder are placed in a satisfactory
condition for suspension or abandonment, whichever is required, unless a new Unit
Operator shall have been selected and approved and shall have taken over and assumed.
the duties and obligations of Unit Operator prior to the expiration of said period.
Unit Operator shall have the right to resign in like manner and subject to like limitations
as above provided at any time after the first Drill Block established hereunder is in
existence, but in all instances of resignation or removal, until a successor Unit Operator is
selected and approved as hereinafter provided, the Working Interest Owners shall be
jointly responsible for performance of the duties of Unit Operator, and shall not later than
30 days before such resignation or removal becomes effective appoint a common agent to
represent them in any action to be taken hereunder.
The resignation of Unit Operator shall not release Unit Operator from any liability for
any default by it hereunder occurring prior to the effective date of its resignation.
The Unit Operator may, upon default or failure in the performance of its duties or
obligations hereunder, be subject to removal by the vote of the Working Interest Owners
holding a majority of the working interests in the Unit Area. Such removal shall be
effective upon notice thereof to the Commission.
The resignation or removal of Unit Operator under this agreement shall not terminate its
right, title, or interest as the owner of a working interest or other interest in Unitized
Substances, but upon the resignation or removal of Unit Operator becoming effective,
such Unit Operator shall deliver possession of all wells, equipment, material, and
appurtenances used in conducting the Unit Operations to the new duly qualified
successor Unit Operator or to the common agent, if no such new Unit Operator is
selected, to be used for the purpose of conducting Unit Operations hereunder. Nothing
herein shall be construed as authorizing removal of any material, equipment or
appurtenances needed for the preservation of any wells.
8. SUCCESSOR UNIT OPERATOR.
Whenever the Unit Operator shall tender its resignation as Unit Operator or shall be
removed as hereinabove provided or a change of Unit Operator is negotiated by the
Working Interest Owners, the Working Interest Owners according to their respective
acreage interests in all Unitized Land shall, pursuant to the requirements of the Unit
Operating Agreement, select a Successor Unit Operator. Such selection shall not become
effective until a Unit Operator so selected shall accept in writing the duties and
responsibilities of Unit Operator.
9. ACCOUNTING PROVISIONS AND UNIT OPERATING AGREEMENT.
If the Unit Operator is not the sole Working Interest Owner, costs and expenses incurred
by Unit Operator in conducting Unit Operations hereunder shall be paid and apportioned
among and borne by the Working Interest Owners, all in accordance with the agreement
or agreements entered into by and between the Unit Operator and the Working Interest
Owners, whether one or more, separately or collectively. Any agreement or agreements
entered into between the Working Interest Owners and the Unit Operator as provided in
this Section, whether one or more, are herein referred to as the "Unit Operating
Agreement." Such Unit Operating Agreement shall also provide the manner in which the
Working Interest Owners shall be entitled to receive their respective proportionate and
allocated share of the benefits accruing hereto in conformity with their underlying
operating agreements, leases, or other independent contracts, and such other rights and
obligations as between Unit Operator and the Working Interest Owners as may be agreed
upon by Unit Operator and the Working Interest Owners; however, no such Unit
Operating Agreement shall be deemed either to modify any of the terms and conditions
of this Unit Agreement, and in case of any inconsistency or conflict between this
agreement and the Unit Operating Agreement, this agreement shall govern.
10. RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF UNIT OPERATOR.
Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the exclusive right, privilege, and duty
of exercising any and all rights of the Parties which are necessary or convenient for
prospecting for, producing, storing, allocating, and distributing the Unitized Substances
are hereby delegated to and shall be exercised by the Unit Operator as herein provided.
Acceptable evidence of title to said rights shall be deposited with Unit Operator and,
together with this agreement, shall constitute and define the rights, privileges, and
obligations of Unit Operator. Nothing herein, however, shall be construed to transfer title
to any lease or operating agreement, it being understood that under this agreement the
Unit Operator, in its capacity as Unit Operator, shall exercise the rights of possession and
use vested in the Parties only for the purposes herein specified.
11. DRILLING TO DISCOVERY.
Within one year after the effective date hereof, the Unit Operator shall commence to drill
an adequate test well at a location determined by Unit Operator, unless on such effective
date a well is being drilled in conformity with the terms hereof, and thereafter continue
such drilling diligently until Unitized Substances shall be discovered which can be
produced in paying quantities. If the initial test well is incapable of producing in paying
quantities, the Unit Operator shall continue drilling one well at a time, allowing not more
than 8 months between the completion of one well and the commencement of drilling
operations for the next well, until a well capable of producing Unitized Substances in
paying quantities is completed or until it is reasonably proved that the Unitized Land is
incapable of producing Unitized Substances in paying quantities in the formations drilled
hereunder. Nothing in this section shall be deemed to limit the right of the Unit Operator
to resign as provided in Section 7 hereof, or as requiring Unit Operator to commence or
continue any drilling during the period pending such resignation becoming effective in
order to comply with the requirements of this Section. The Commission may modify any
of the drilling requirements of this Section by granting reasonable extensions of time
when, in its opinion, such action is warranted, following notice and opportunity for a
hearing. Upon failure to commence any well as provided for in this (these) Section(s)
within the time allowed, including any extension of time granted by the Commission, this
agreement will automatically terminate after Unit Operator has been given 60 days notice
of alleged failure to commence any well as provided for in this Section, and a reasonably
opportunity to cure. If Unitized Substances in paying quantities are discovered through a
test well, the drilling provisions of this Section will be deemed satisfied and will no
longer be applicable.
12. DRILLING OBLIGATIONS DURING INITIAL TERM.
Beginning thirty-six months after the initial production date of a test well capable of
producing Unitized Substances in paying quantities provided for in Section 11 of this
agreement, drilling operations shall be continuously prosecuted by the Unit Operator
during the remainder of the Initial Term as hereinafter provided. "Drilling operations"
includes operations for the drilling of a new well, the reworking, deepening or plugging
back of a well or hole or other operations conducted in an effort to obtain or re-establish
production of Unitized Substances. Drilling operations shall be considered to be
"continuously prosecuted" so long as any one or more of such operations are prosecuted
with no cessation of more than 180 consecutive days during the Initial Term. As used in
this agreement, the term "operations" shall mean any activity conducted on or off the
Unit Area that is reasonably calculated to obtain or restore production of the Unitized
Substances, including without limitation, (i) drilling or any act preparatory to drilling
(such as obtaining permits, surveying a drill site, staking a drill site, building roads,
clearing a drill site, or hauling equipment or supplies); (ii) reworking, plugging back,
deepening, treating, stimulating, refitting, installing any artificial lift or production -
enhancement equipment or technique; (iii) constructing facilities related to the
production, treatment, transportation and marketing of Unitized Substances; and (iv)
contracting for marketing services and sale of Unitized Substances.
13. ESTABLISHMENT OF DRILL BLOCKS.
Unit Operator will form Drill Blocks, being areas of land designated for the drilling of one
or more wells within the Unit Area, based on drilling plans, drainage areas, and facility
design, among other things. The lands so designated by the Unit Operator shall constitute
the Drill Block, effective as of the date of completion of the first well within the Drill
Block. No later than forty-five (45) days prior to drilling the first well in a Drill Block,
Unit Operator shall submit a Drill Block schedule to all Working Interest Owners and
Royalty Owners within each respective Drill Block. Unit Operator shall provide the Drill
Block schedule by mailing a copy of the same to the last known address of the Working
Interest Owner or Royalty Owner, or by providing a copy of the Drill Block schedule to
the Working Interest Owner or Royalty Owner through electronic mail. The schedule
shall set forth the legal description of the lands comprising the Drill Block and also set
forth the percentage of Unitized. Substances to be allocated, as provided in Section 14, to
each tract in a Drill Block, and shall govern the allocation of production commencing with
the effective date of the Drill Block. No land shall be excluded from a Drill Block on
account of depletion of its Unitized Substances, except that a Drill Block established under
the provisions of this agreement shall terminate automatically whenever all completions in
the Unitized Formations underlying the Drill Block are abandoned. The Unit Operator
may revise a Drill Block at any time, provided that the Unit Operator shall provide written
notice of a Drill Block revision to the Working Interest Owners and Royalty Owners
affected by the revision within 30 days of the decision to revise a Drill Block.
Regardless of any revision of a Drill Block, nothing herein contained shall be construed as
requiring any retroactive adjustment for production obtained prior to the effective date of
the revision of the Drill Block.
In the absence of agreement at any time between the Unit Operator and a Working Interest
Owner as to the proper definition or redefinition of a Drill Block, or until the Drill Block
has been established, the portion of all payments affected thereby shall be impounded in a
manner mutually acceptable to the Working Interest Owners.
For purposes of Section 34-60-118(5), C.R.S., the approval and effectiveness of this
agreement for Unit Operations shall be based on the parties (both Working Interest
Owners and Royalty Owners) respective interests in the entire Unit Area, as set forth in
Exhibit C, and not based on ownership in any individual Drill Block.
14. ALLOCATION OF PRODUCTION.
All Unitized Substances produced from a Drill Block established under this agreement,
except any part thereof used in conformity with good operating practices within the
Unitized Area for drilling, operating, and other production or development purposes, for
repressuring or recycling, or unavoidably lost, shall be deemed to be produced equally on
an acreage basis from the several tracts of Unitized Land within each respective Drill
Block established for such production. For the purpose of determining any benefits
accruing under this agreement, each such tract of Unitized Land shall have allocated to it
such percentage of said production as the number of acres of such tract included in a Drill
Block bears to the total acres of Unitized Land in the Drill Block. As set forth in Section
13, when the Unit Operator establishes Drill Blocks for the Unit Area following
completion of a well capable of producing Unitized Substances in paying quantities, Unit
Operator shall deliver to all Working Interest Owners and Royalty Owners a schedule
containing the legal description of each respective Drill Block, together with percentage of
Unitized Substances allocated to each tract within the respective Drill Block ("Drill Block
Tract Participation") as set forth in this Section based on the number of acres a tract in a
Drill Block bears to the total acres of Unitized Land in the Drill Block. The "Drill Block
Participation" of a Working Interest Owner in the Drill Block is the sum of the
percentages obtained by multiplying the Working Interest of such Working Interest Owner
in each tract within the Drill Block by the Drill Block Tract Participation of such tract.
Allocation of production hereunder for purposes other than for settlement of the royalty,
overriding royalty, or payment out of production obligations of the respective Working Interest
Owners, shall be on the basis prescribed in the Unit Operating Agreement whether in
conformity with the basis of allocation herein set forth or otherwise.
It is hereby agreed that production of Unitized Substances from a Drill Block shall be
allocated as provided herein regardless of whether any wells are drilled on any particular
part or tract of the Drill Block.
15. GRANT OF EASEMENTS.
The Parties, to the extent of their rights and interests, hereby grant to Unit Operator the right to
use as much of the surface of the land within the Unit Area as may be reasonably necessary for
Unit Operations and the removal of Unitized Substances from the Unit Area.
16. ROYALTY SETTLEMENT.
Settlement for royalty interest shall he made by the Unit Operator on behalf of the
Working Interest Owners responsible therefore under existing contracts, laws and
regulations on or before the last day of each month for Unitized Substances produced
during the preceding calendar month; provided, however, that nothing in this Section shall
operate to relieve the lessees of any land from their respective lease obligations for the

agreement are hereby expressly modified and amended to the extent necessary to make the
same conform to the provisions hereof, but otherwise to remain in full force and effect;
and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all leases, subleases, and contracts
are particularly modified in accordance with the following:
(a) The development and operation of lands subject to this agreement under the

operation with respect to each and every separately owned tract subject to this agreement,
regardless of whether there is any development of any particular tract of this Unit Area.
(b) Drilling and producing operations performed hereunder upon any tract of
Unitized Lands and in any Drill Block will be accepted and deemed to be performed upon
and for the benefit of each and every tract of Unitized Land, notwithstanding whether a

and no lease shall be deemed to expire by reason of failure to drill or produce wells
situated on the land therein embraced.
(c) Suspension of drilling or producing operations on all Unitized Lands shall be
deemed to constitute such suspension pursuant to such direction or consent as to each and
every tract of Unitized Land.
(d) All leases, subleases, and other contracts relating to exploration, drilling,

21. EFFECTIVE DATE AND TERM.
This agreement shall become effective as of the date the Commission enters an order
approving the plan for Unit Operations and shall automatically terminate ten (10) years
from said effective date ("Initial Tenn") unless:
(a) Upon application by the Unit Operator such date of expiration is extended by
the Commission, or
(b) It is reasonably determined prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or any
extension thereof that the Unitized Land is incapable of production of Unitized Substances
in paying quantities in the formations tested hereunder, and after notice of intention to
terminate this agreement on such ground is given by the Unit Operator to all parties in
interest at their last known addresses, this agreement is terminated, or
(c) A valuable discovery of Unitized Substances in paying quantities has been
made or accepted on Unitized Land during said Initial Term or any extension thereof, in
which event this agreement shall remain in effect for such term and so long thereafter as
Unitized Substances can be produced in paying quantities from wells on Unitized Land
within the Drill Blocks established hereunder. Following the initial Term or any extension
thereof, should any portion of the Unit Area not he included in a Drilling Block where
production of Unitized Substances is occurring or should production cease within a Drill
Block, and diligent drilling or reworking operations to restore production or obtain new
production are not in progress within 180 days and production is not restored or should
new production not be obtained in paying quantities on lands within the applicable Drill
Block, the Unit Area shall contract to exclude those lands not within a then producing
Drill Block, but other provisions of this Unit Agreement shall continue to be applicable as
to the remaining acreage. Should all production be abandoned within the Unit Area
following the Initial Term or any extension thereof, this agreement will automatically
terminate effective the last day of the month in which the last unitized production
occurred, or
(d) It is voluntarily terminated as provided in this agreement. Except as noted
herein this agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the discovery of Unitized
Substances which can he produced in paying quantities by not less than 75 per centum, on
an acreage basis, of the Working Interest Owners signatory hereto. The Unit Operator
shall give notice of any such approval to all Parties. Voluntary termination may not occur
during the first six (6) months of this agreement unless at least one test well shall have
been drilled in conformance with Section 11.
22. EXISTING WELLS EXCLUDED FROM UNIT.
The Unit Area includes vertical, directional, and horizontal oil and gas wells drilled and
producing as of the Effective Date of this agreement. The Parties agree that any well, whether
vertical, directional or horizontal, drilled and producing in the Unit Area prior to the Effective
Date of this agreement shall be excluded from the Unit and proceeds from production from the
applicable well(s) shall continue to be distributed based on the applicable spacing and pooling
orders pertaining to the same. Any well within the Unit Area drilled and producing prior to the
Effective Date of this agreement shall be further excluded from the terms of this agreement and
the Unit Operating Agreement.
23. APPEARANCES.
The Unit Operator shall have the right to appear for and on behalf of any and all interests
affected hereby before the Commission and to appeal from orders issued under the
regulations of said Commission, or to apply for relief from any of said regulations, or in
any proceedings relative to operations before the Commission, or any other legally
constituted authority.
24. NOTICES.
All notices, demands, or statements required hereunder to be given or rendered to the
Parties hereto shall be in writing and shall be personally delivered to the Party or Parties,
or sent by postpaid registered or certified mail, to the last known address of the Party or
Parties.
25. FORCE MAJEURE.
All obligations under this agreement requiring the Unit Operator to commence or
continue drilling, or to operate on, or produce Unitized Substances from any of the lands
covered by this agreement, shall be suspended while the Unit Operator, despite the
exercise of due care and diligence, is prevented from complying with such obligations, in
whole or in part, by strikes, riots, epidemics, pandemics, acts of God, Federal, State or
municipal law or agencies, unavoidable accidents, uncontrollable delays in
transportation, inability to obtain necessary materials or equipment in open market or
other matters beyond the reasonable control of the Unit Operator whether similar to
matters herein enumerated or not.
26. TITLE.
Each Party who, by acceptance of the proceeds of Unitized Substances, may claim to own a
Working Interest or Royalty Interest in and to any tract or in the Unitized Substances allocated
thereto, shall be deemed to have warranted its title to such interest, and, upon receipt of the
proceeds of Unitized Substances to the credit of such interest, shall indemnify and hold
harmless all other Parties in interest, including Unit Operator, from any loss due to failure, in
whole or in part, of its title to any such interest
In the event title to any tract of Unitized Land shall fail and the true owner cannot be
induced to join in this agreement, such tract shall be regarded as not committed hereto if
inclusion of the tract would result in failure to secure 80% approval of Unit Operations
under Section 34-60-118(5), C.R.S. If such tract is regarded as not committed to this
agreement, there shall be such readjustment of future costs and benefits as may be required
on account of the loss of such title. In the event of a dispute as to title to any royalty,
working interest, or other interests subject thereto, payment or delivery on account thereof
may be withheld without liability for interests until the dispute is finally settled.
Unit Operator as such is relieved from any responsibility for any defect or failure of any
title hereunder.
27. COUNTERPARTS.
This agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, no one of which needs to
be executed by all Parties, or may be ratified or consented to by separate instrument in
writing specifically referring hereto and shall be binding upon all those Parties who have
executed such a counterpart, ratification, or consent hereto with the same force and effect
as if all such Parties had signed the same document, and regardless of whether or not it is
executed by all other parties owning or claiming an interest in the lands within the above -
described Unit Area.
28. SURRENDER.
Nothing in this agreement shall prohibit the exercise by any Working Interest Owner of
the right to surrender vested in such party by any lease, sublease, or operating agreement
as to all or any part of the lands covered thereby, provided that each party who will or
might acquire such working interest by such surrender or by forfeiture as hereafter set
forth, is bound by the terms of this agreement.
If as a result of any such surrender, the working interest rights as to such lands become
vested in any party other than the fee owner of the Unitized Substances, said party may
forfeit such rights and further benefits from operations hereunder as to said land to the
party next in the chain of title who shall he and become the owner of such working
interest.
If as the result of any such surrender or forfeiture, working interest rights become vested in
the fee owner of the Unitized Substances, such owner may:
(a) Accept those working interest rights subject to this agreement and the Unit
Operating Agreement, or
(b) Lease the portion of such land as is included in the Drill Block established
hereunder subject to this agreement and the Unit Operating Agreement.
If the fee owner of the Unitized Substances does not accept the working interest rights
subject to this agreement and the Unit Operating Agreement or lease such lands as above
provided within 6 months after the surrender or forfeiture, working interest rights become
vested in the fee owner; the benefits and obligations of operations accruing to such lands
under this agreement and the Unit Operating Agreement shall be shared by the remaining
Working Interest Owners in accordance with their proportionate ownership of the
remaining working interests, and such Working Interest Owners shall compensate the fee
owner of Unitized Substances in such lands by paying sums equal to the rentals, minimum
royalties, and royalties applicable to such lands under the lease in effect when the lands
were unitized.
An appropriate accounting and settlement shall be made for all benefits accruing to or
payments and expenditures made or incurred on behalf of such surrendered or forfeited
working interests subsequent to the date of surrender or forfeiture, and payment of any
moneys found to be owed by such an accounting shall be made as between the Parties
within 30 days.
The exercise of any right vested in a Working Interest Owner to reassign such working
interest to the party from whom obtained shall be subject to the same conditions as set
forth in this section in regard to the exercise of a right to surrender.
29. TAXES.
The Unit Operator on behalf of the Working Interest Owners shall render and pay for their
account and the account of the Royalty Owners all valid taxes on or measured by Unitized
Substances in and under or that may produced, gathered and sold from the land covered by
this agreement after its effective date, or upon the proceeds derived therefrom. The Unit
Operator on behalf of the Working Interest Owners on each tract shall and may charge the
proper proportion of said taxes to Royalty Owners having interests in said tract, and may
currently retain and deduct a sufficient amount of the Unitized Substances or derivative
products, or net proceeds thereof, from the allocated share of each Royalty Owner to
secure reimbursement for taxes so paid. No such taxes shall be charged to the State of
Colorado or to any lessor who has a contract with his lessee which requires the lessee to
pay such taxes.
30. NO PARTNERSHIP.
