(b) Offshore owns a 15% interest in the Empire Lease.

2. The liens granted to CIT under the Plan shall encumber the full 85% working

interest in the Empire Lease owned by the Debtor, subject however to the terms of the Plan set

forth in section 5.18 thereof, regarding the right of Offshore to receive distributions in excess of

its 15% interest.

3. As of entry of the Partial Order (ECF No. 215) in the above-captioned adversary

proceeding dated March 16, 2011 (the “Partial Order”), and for the purpose of resolving certain

disputes between the Debtor and Offshore relating to the rejection of the Empire Lease joint

operating agreement (the “Empire JOA”), the Debtor is recognized as the operator of the Empire

Lease.

4. The Debtor and/or the Plan Trust, as applicable, shall be substituted as the

operator of record for the Empire Lease with the State of Louisiana. The Debtor, Plan Trust,

and/or Plan Trustee are hereby authorized to take all actions necessary or appropriate to

implement, effectuate, and consummate any and all documents and transactions that may be

necessary in order to substitute the Debtor and/or the Plan Trust as the operator of record for the

Empire Lease.

5. Within thirty (30) days after the Plan’s Effective Date, the funds within the

Empire Escrow (the “Empire Escrow Funds”) shall be distributed as follows:

(a) 85% of the Empire Escrow Funds shall be distributed to the Plan Trust; and

(b) 15% of the Empire Escrow Funds shall be distributed to Offshore.

appealable Court order in adversary proceeding No. 11-01111, currently pending in the United

States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana (the “Offshore Adversary”); and

(ii) any valid pre-petition judgment liens against the Empire Lease and any wells therein, which

have been recognized by a final, non-appealable order in the Offshore Adversary (collectively,

the “Recognized Liens”). Any payments made by Offshore in satisfaction of Recognized Liens

shall be allocated pro-rata, among all Recognized Lienholders or as otherwise ordered by the

Court.

7. The Debtor and Plan Trust waive any right to pursue Offshore for collection of

the $803,705.00 debt that was referenced in the Partial Order. Upon entry of this Consent

Judgment, the $803,705.00 debt referenced in the Partial Order shall be deemed released and

satisfied.

8. The Debtor waives any and all of its rights to pursue any other claims against

Offshore relating to the Empire JOA or ownership of the Empire Lease, to the extent that such

claims arose prior to the Effective Date.

9. This Court shall retain jurisdiction to hear and determine all matters arising from,

or relating to, the implementation or interpretation of this Consent Order.
