The general principles of the Joint Business Plan of Enterra, JED and JMG reflect the circumstance that Enterra is a royalty trust whose primary purpose is providing an income stream to its unitholders, JED is an oil and gas development company and JMG is an oil and gas exploration company.  Accordingly the parties have agreed on the following principles (the Principles):

-2-

(a)

Operatorship: (i) Enterra hereby appoints JED the operator or contract operator of all assets in which Enterra is now the operator and which have development, including the contract operator of assets in which JED has no working interests, and agrees to appoint JED the operator or contract operator of any and all future assets which have development acquired by Enterra in which Enterra has the right to be or appoint the operator.

(ii) Enterra hereby agrees to appoint JMG the operator or contract operator of any and all future assets which have no current development acquired by Enterra in which Enterra has the right to be or appoint the operator.

(b)

Enterra Acquisitions and Farmouts: (i) Enterra hereby agrees that working interests in any assets with production it acquires in the future which require additional drilling (Enterra’s Acquired Interests) will be farmed out to JED on the basis that JED will pay 100% of all costs allocable to Enterra’s Acquired Interests (including any required tie-ins and facility costs related to such additional drilling) to earn 70% of Enterra’s Acquired Interests in the producing zones of the spacing units of all new wells drilled and Enterra retains a carried interest of 30% of Enterra’s Acquired Interests.

(ii) Enterra hereby agrees that Enterra’s Acquired Interests in any assets without production it acquires in the future will be farmed out to JMG on the basis that JMG will pay 100% of all costs allocable to Enterra’s Acquired Interests (including any required tie-ins and facility costs) to earn 70% of Enterra’s Acquired Interests in the producing zones of the spacing units of all new wells drilled and Enterra retains a carried interest of 30% of Enterra’s Acquired Interests.

(c)

JED Dispositions: In the event that JED desires to sell any assets, other than assets earned under farmouts from Enterra and JMG pursuant to subclause 1(e), (either before or after receipt of a third party offer) it shall first offer such assets to Enterra.

(i)  

In the event that JED has received a bona fide third party offer for such assets, it shall offer such assets to Enterra on the same terms and conditions as such third party offer (or a cash equivalent purchase price if the offer is not for cash), and Enterra shall have 30 days from receipt of such notice to exercise its right of first refusal and close the purchase of the assets on the same terms and conditions as set out in the notice of the offer; following which JED shall be free for 60 days to sell such assets to such third party on terms no less favorable to JED that those set out in the offer.

-3-

(ii)  

In the event that JED desires to sell assets for which it has not received a bona fide offer from a third party, it shall offer such assets for sale to Enterra , on an area by area, play of project basis: (A) for each area, play or project that has production, at a price equal to the estimated present value as determined by an independent engineering report prepared by a mutually agreeable engineering firm utilizing such firm’s current fluctuating pricing deck and discounted by the Current Percentage Discount Rate; and (B) for each area, play or project has not been developed, at a cost equal to the estimated value of the undeveloped land as determined by an independent valuation prepared by a mutually agreeable valuation firm, plus any actual expenses by JED other than land acquisition costs, such as seismic data, etc.;  and Enterra shall have 30 days from determination of the purchase price to close such purchase.  If Enterra does not close the purchase withing 30 days from determination of the purchase price, JED shall be free for 6 months to sell such assets to another party at any price negotiated in good faith with such other party that is not less than the price at which Enterra could have acquired such assets, without triggering Enterra’s right of first refusal set out in subclause 1(c)(i).  For purposes of this Agreement, the term Current Percentage Discount Rate means the discount rate in the independent engineering report which is closest to the 10 year bond rate established from time to time by the government of the United States of America for government savings bonds plus five percent (5%) provided that the Current Percentage Discount Rate shall be a minimum of 10%.

And in the event that JED desires to sell any assets earned under farmouts from Enterra and JMG pursuant to subclause 1(e), (either before or after receipt of a third party offer) it shall first offer such assets to Enterra as to 80% and JMG as to 20% at a price determined pursuant to either subclause (i) or (ii) above, as applicable to the circumstances.

(d)

JMG Acquisitions: JMG hereby agrees that Enterra will have an option to purchase 80% of JMG’s working interests in all assets acquired by JMG on an area by area basis when each such area, play or project has been sufficiently drilled to establish the existence of commercially viable hydrocarbons, at a price equal to the estimated present value as determined by an independent engineering report prepared by a mutually agreeable engineering firm utilizing such firm’s current fluctuating pricing deck and discounted by the Current Percentage Discount Rate.

(e)

Enterra and JMG Farmouts: Enterra and JMG hereby agree Enterra’s 80% of JMG’s working interests acquired by Enterra pursuant to subclause 1(d) and JMG’s remaining 20% working interests will be farmed out to JED on the basis that JED will pay 100% of all costs allocable to both farmors working interests (including any required tie-ins and facility costs) to earn 70% of such interests in the producing zones of the spacing units of all new wells drilled and Enterra and JGM each retain a carried interest of 30% of their respective working interests.

-4-
