2.                                       In order to facilitate the orderly transfer of the Interests from Quicksilver to BreitBurn, the parties recognize that it is necessary and desirable for Quicksilver to provide to BreitBurn and the Acquired Companies certain transition services in connection with the Oil and Gas Properties for a limited period of time after the Closing Date, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

 

3.                                       For purposes of this Agreement, the Marketing Services, Land Administration Services and Accounting Services (each as defined below) shall be collectively referred to as the “Services.”

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, the covenants set forth herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Quicksilver and BreitBurn agree as follows:

 

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

 

1.                                      Term. This Agreement shall commence on the Closing Date and terminate on the earlier of (i) March 31, 2008 (provided, if the Closing occurs after November 1, 2007, the number of days from, and including, November 1, 2007 to, and excluding, the Closing Date shall be added to March 31, 2008 to establish the new date covered by this clause (i)) or (ii) the date on which BreitBurn has assumed responsibility for all of the Services pursuant to Section 3. This Agreement may be extended or terminated upon mutual written agreement of the Parties. The date on which this Agreement terminates shall be hereinafter referred to as the “Termination Date.”  With respect to each Service, the “Transition Period” shall be the period of time between the Closing Date and the earlier of (i) the Termination Date or (ii) the date on which BreitBurn assumes responsibility for such Service pursuant to Section 3. Termination of this Agreement in whole or in part shall not (x) release any obligations, liabilities, rights and remedies arising out any breach of, or failure to comply with, this Agreement occurring prior to such termination or

 



 

(y) release, impair or affect the covenants and agreements contained in Sections 8, 12, 15, 16 and 17, each of which shall survive such termination and continue in full force and effect.

 

2.                                      Fees. In consideration for the Land Administration Services and the Accounting Services to be provided by Quicksilver pursuant to this Agreement, on the date hereof and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter during the term of this Agreement, BreitBurn shall pay Quicksilver a monthly fee in the amount of $30,000 for the Land Administration Services and $220,000 for the Accounting Services. If Quicksilver’s obligation to provide Land Administration Services or Accounting Services ceases prior to the Termination Date, then BreitBurn’s obligation to pay the aforesaid fee for such category of Services shall terminate on the same date as such obligation of Quicksilver ceases. If this Agreement commences on a day other than the first day of a calendar month or this Agreement or Quicksilver’s provision of Land Administration Services or Accounting Services terminates on a day other than the last day of a calendar month, then the monthly fee to be paid to Quicksilver for each such month (or the monthly fee for such terminated category of Services for such month) shall be prorated. In addition, in consideration for the Marketing Services to be provided by Quicksilver pursuant to this Agreement, BreitBurn shall pay Quicksilver a monthly fee determined by multiplying the total number of mcfe sold during the previous month pursuant to the Marketing Services multiplied by $0.02. By way of clarification, the Marketing Services shall not cover any Hydrocarbons sold pursuant to the Subject Contracts referenced in Section 6.23(d) of the Contribution Agreement.

The form and content of such statement shall be in substantially the same form as the attached Exhibit A (the “Monthly Settlement Statement”). On or before thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar month, Quicksilver shall remit to BreitBurn, the net amount calculated as set forth on the Monthly Settlement Statement. All remittances shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of BreitBurn to such bank or account as may be specified by BreitBurn in writing;

(iii)                               Quicksilver shall comply with all state and federal regulatory reporting and filing requirements, including any reports required by the regulatory agencies;

(ix)                                Quicksilver shall continue to apply substantially the same Sarbanes-Oxley related processes that Quicksilver has historically utilized and Quicksilver shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate with BreitBurn’s internal audit department in facilitating the integration of such Sarbanes-Oxley related processes into BreitBurn’s control processes.

 

For the avoidance of doubt, the Accounting Services shall not include the preparation of any income Tax Returns on behalf of BreitBurn or any of the Transferred Companies.

 

(c)                                  Marketing Services. From Closing Date through the Termination Date (or until such earlier date as BreitBurn notifies Quicksilver in writing that BreitBurn assumes responsibility for marketing activities for the Oil and Gas Properties), Quicksilver shall provide marketing, transportation, gas control, gas scheduling, and contract administration services as reasonably requested by BreitBurn necessary to transport and sell the oil, gas, and other production from the Oil and Gas Properties (the “Marketing Services”). Notwithstanding anything herein provided to the contrary, Quicksilver’s obligation to provide the Marketing Services shall be conditioned upon BreitBurn timely providing Quicksilver with written notice and direction as to the quantity of oil, gas and other production from the Oil and Gas Properties that should be nominated by Quicksilver on behalf of BreitBurn as well as all other information required by Quicksilver to perform the Marketing Services hereunder, including, without limitation, written designation of the parties to whom such production should be sold.

 

(d)                                 Scope of Services. The Marketing Services, Land Administration Services and Accounting Services described above shall be substantially the same as such marketing, land administration and accounting services with respect to the Oil and Gas Properties that Quicksilver provided for its own behalf (or on behalf of the Acquired Companies or their Affiliates) for the management of the Oil and Gas Properties prior to the Closing Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Quicksilver is not obligated to provide any Services that Quicksilver did not perform with respect to the Oil and Gas Properties for its own account (or the account of the Acquired Companies) immediately prior to the Closing

 

3



 

or perform any such Services in a manner substantially different from the manner in which Quicksilver performed such Services for its own account (or the account of the Acquired Companies) immediately prior to the Closing. At Quicksilver’s election all or any part of the Services may be performed or provided by any Affiliate or Affiliates of Quicksilver or any service provider who has historically provided the applicable Service to Quicksilver. To the extent any Services are performed or provided by an Affiliate of Quicksilver or any such service provider, such Services shall nevertheless be considered as having been performed or provided by Quicksilver hereunder.

 

4.                                      Payments and Reimbursements.

 

(a)                                  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Quicksilver shall not be obligated to make or advance any payments on behalf of BreitBurn, the Acquired Companies or any of their Affiliates pursuant to any of the Services except to the extent that at least five (5) Business Days before such payment is due (i) BreitBurn has advanced adequate immediately available funds to Quicksilver for such purpose or (ii) Quicksilver has received and is then holding adequate immediately available funds of BreitBurn, the Acquired Companies or their Affiliates pursuant to the Services rendered by Quicksilver pursuant to this Agreement.

 

(b)                                 Quicksilver, at its option, may advance any funds needed to make any payments on behalf of BreitBurn, the Acquired Companies or any of their Affiliates pursuant to any of the Services, and BreitBurn shall reimburse Quicksilver for all such advances. In lieu of advancing such funds, Quicksilver may, at its election, require BreitBurn to advance to Quicksilver the estimated amount of the payments required to be made on behalf of BreitBurn, the Acquired Companies or any of their Affiliates pursuant to any of the Services for any month; and adjustment between the estimated payment amounts and the actual payment amounts shall be made on the next month’s billing. Such advances shall be reflected in an invoice from Quicksilver to BreitBurn and shall be due and payable on or before the later of (i) three (3) Business Days before the first day of the calendar month in which it is anticipated such estimated payments will be incurred or (ii) five (5) Business Days after such invoice is received by BreitBurn.

 

(c)                                  In addition to the fees provided for in Section 2, BreitBurn shall reimburse Quicksilver for all out-of-pocket costs reasonably incurred by Quicksilver in providing the Services (including all costs Quicksilver incurs in connection with using the Property Tax Management System licensed from Tax Compliance Inc. to perform the Services hereunder and any fees due the service provider who provides payroll administration services), excluding salaries, overtime and other employee costs and overhead and administrative costs.

 

(d)                                 Quicksilver shall send BreitBurn a monthly invoice setting forth the amounts of (i) fees due under Section 2 for that month (provided, however, in the case of the fee payable to Quicksilver for Marketing Services, such fee shall be calculated based upon the assumption that the volume of mcfe sold during the month in question is equal to the volume of mcfe nominated for such month), (ii) any advances made by Quicksilver on behalf of BreitBurn, the Acquired Companies or any of their Affiliates pursuant to Section 4(b) for which BreitBurn has not made an advance payment pursuant to Section 4(b), and (iii) any reimbursable out-of-pocket costs under Section 4(c); provided, however, that Quicksilver’s failure to include any

 

4



 

fees, advances or reimbursable costs for any month in any monthly invoice shall not waive or release BreitBurn’s obligation therefor under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if it is determined that the actual volume of mcfe sold in a given month during the term of this Agreement is different than the volume that was used to calculate the fee paid by BreitBurn to Quicksilver for Marketing Services for such month, the marketing fee shall be recalculated for such month and any amount owed by Quicksilver to BreitBurn or BreitBurn to Quicksilver, as the case may be, shall be reflected in the next monthly invoice sent by Quicksilver to BreitBurn pursuant to this Section 4(d). BreitBurn shall pay Quicksilver the total amount shown to be due on any such invoice within fifteen (15) days of receipt of such invoice. The amount properly included in any invoice not paid within fifteen (15) days after BreitBurn’s receipt of the invoice shall accrue interest as provided in Section 4(e).

 

(e)                                  All amounts due and payable by either Party under this Agreement shall accrue simple interest at the Interest Rate from the first date on which such amounts are payable hereunder until the date payment is received.

 

(f)                                    All amounts owing by either Party to the other Party under this Agreement shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds in U.S. dollars sent to the bank and account designated by the receiving Party.
