"Effective Time"),   as   described   below.
                         
     2.3.2      Company shall be entitled to all Property Proceeds from and after

all Property Costs incurred prior to the Effective Time.

     2.3.3      For purposes of this Agreement, the terms "earned" and
"incurred", as used in this Agreement, shall be interpreted in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles and COPAS standards.   For purposes of
this Section 2.3.3, determination of whether Property Costs are attributable to
the period before or after the Effective Time shall be based on when services
are rendered, when the goods are delivered, or when the work is performed.   For
clarification, the date an item or work is ordered is not the date of a
pre-Effective Time transaction for settlement purposes, but rather the date on
which the item ordered is delivered to the job site, or the date on which the
work ordered is performed, shall be the relevant date.   For purposes of
allocating Hydrocarbon production (and accounts receivable with respect
thereto), under this Section 2.3.3, (a) liquid Hydrocarbons shall be deemed to
be "from or attributable to" the Leases, Units and Wells when they pass through
the pipeline connecting into the storage facilities into which they are run and
(b) gaseous Hydrocarbons shall be deemed to be "from or attributable to" the
Leases, Units and Wells when they pass through the delivery point sales meters
on the pipelines through which they are transported. Contributor has utilized
reasonable interpolative procedures to arrive at an allocation of Hydrocarbon
production when exact meter readings or gauging and strapping data is not
available. Contributor has, prior to the execution of this Agreement, provided
Company all data necessary to support any estimated allocation, for purposes of
establishing the production information necessary to calculate the amount of the
Effective Time Adjustment Payment pursuant to Section 3.2.2.   Taxes,
right-of-way fees, insurance premiums and other Property Costs that are paid
periodically shall be prorated based on the number of days in the applicable
period falling before and the number of days in the applicable period falling at
or after the Effective Time, except that Hydrocarbon production, severance and
similar Taxes shall be prorated based on the number of units actually produced,
purchased or sold or proceeds of sale, as applicable, before, and at or after,
the Effective Time.   In each case, Company shall be responsible for the portion
allocated to the period at and after the Effective Time and Contributor shall be
responsible for the portion allocated to the period before the Effective Time.

                                    ARTICLE 3
                    CONTRIBUTION; EXECUTION DATE DELIVERABLES

    3.1      CONTRIBUTION.   Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Contributor
shall contribute   the Assets   to   Company (the "Contribution") and Company shall
accept   the   Assets   and   issue   the   Shares   to Contributor on the Closing Date
simultaneously   with   the   closing   of   the   Equity   Raise

    3.2      EFFECTIVE TIME ADJUSTMENTS.

            3.2.1      Company   shall make a cash payment to Contributor (the
"Effective Time Adjustment   Payment")   to account for certain post-Effective
Time costs and expenses   associated   with   the   Assets, after accounting for any
post-Effective Time revenues received by Contributor with respect to the Assets.
The amount of the   Effective   Time Adjustment Payment shall be as calculated in
Section 3.2.2.

            3.2.2      The amount of the Effective Time Adjustment Payment shall
be calculated as follows:

                       (a)      Adding   the   amount   of   all Property Costs
incurred with respect to the ownership   and   operation   of   the   Assets   during
the period commencing at the Effective   Time   and ending on (and including) the
Closing Date (the "Adjustment Period"),   except   any   Property   Costs   and  
other   such   costs deducted in the determination   of   proceeds   in   Section  
3.2.2(b);   and

                      (b)      Subtracting the aggregate amount of the Property
Proceeds received by Contributor during the Adjustment Period.

            3.2.3      The   adjustment   made   pursuant   to   Section   3.2.2(b)  
shall serve to satisfy, up to the amount of the adjustment, Company's
entitlement under Section 2.3.2   to   Property   Proceeds received by Contributor
during the Adjustment Period,   and   as such, Company shall not have any separate
rights to receive any Hydrocarbon   production or income, proceeds, receipts and
credits   to the extent an   adjustment   has   been   made.   Similarly, the
adjustment described in Section 3.2.2(a)   shall   serve to satisfy, up to the
amount of the adjustment, Company's obligation   under   Section   2.3.2   to   pay  
Property   Costs   and   other   costs attributable   to   the   ownership   and
operation of the Assets which are incurred during   the   Adjustment   Period,   and
as   such, Company shall not be separately obligated   to   pay   for   any Property
Costs or other such costs to the extent an adjustment   has   been   made.

            3.2.4

                      (a)      Immediately   prior   to   the   execution   of   this  
Agreement, Contributor prepared   and delivered to Company, based upon the best
information available to Contributor, a preliminary statement estimating the
amount of the Effective Time   Adjustment   Payment   after   giving effect to
Section 3.2.2.   Such estimate shall   constitute   the   amount   to be paid by
Company to Contributor pursuant to Section   3.4   in   respect   of   the   Effective
Time   Adjustment   Payment.

                      (b)      As soon as reasonably practicable after the
Execution Date but not later than ninety (90) days thereafter, Contributor shall
prepare and deliver to Company a statement setting forth the final calculation
of the amount of the Effective Time Adjustment Payment and showing the
calculation of such payment, based, to the extent possible, on actual credits,
charges, receipts and other items during the Adjustment Period and taking into
account all adjustments provided for in this Agreement.   Contributor shall at
Company's request supply reasonable documentation available to support any
credit, charge, receipt or other item.   As soon as reasonably practicable but
not later than the 30th day following receipt of Contributor's statement
hereunder, Company shall deliver to Contributor a written report containing any
changes that Company proposes be made to such statement.   The Parties shall
undertake to agree on the final statement of the Effective Time Adjustment
Payment no later than one hundred fifty (150) days after the Execution Date.   In
the event that the Parties cannot reach agreement within such period of time,
either Party may refer the remaining matters in dispute to a nationally-
recognized independent accounting firm as may be accepted by the Parties for
review and final determination pursuant to arbitration.   The accounting firm
shall conduct the arbitration proceedings in Harris County, Texas in accordance
with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association,
to the extent such rules do not conflict with the terms of this Section
3.2.4(b).   The accounting firm's determination shall be made within thirty (30)
days after submission of the matters in dispute and shall be final and binding
on both Parties, without right of appeal.   The accounting firm shall act as an
expert for the limited purpose of determining the specific disputed matters
submitted by either Party and may not award damages or penalties to either Party
with respect to any matter.   Each Party shall each bear its own legal fees and
other costs of presenting its case, and one-half of the costs and expenses of
the accounting firm.   Within ten (10) Business Days after the date on which the
Parties or the accounting firm, as applicable, finally determines the disputed
matters, the Party required to make a payment to the other Party in settlement
of the final amount of the Effective Time Adjustment Payment shall make such
payment.
