Brown, Conference Officer <br /> Colorado Department of Natural Resources <br /> Division of Minerals and Geology <br /> 1313 Sherman Street <br /> Denver, Colorado 80203 <br /> Re: Mid-Continent Resources, Inc. - Settlement Agreements <br /> Associated with Notices of Violation ("NOV") C-93-086, <br /> 006VO , C-93-094, C-93-98 and C-93-106 <br /> Dear Ms. Brown: <br /> Attached to this cover letter are executed settlement <br /> agreements for Notices of Violation C-93-086, C-93-089, C-93-094, <br /> C-93-98 and C-93-106 issued by the Division to Mid-Continent <br /> Resources, Inc. As you know, the operator is the subject of <br /> proceedings pursuant to Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy <br /> Code. I have been advised by the operator's bankruptcy counsel <br /> that the automatic stay provisions of the Bankruptcy Code enjoin <br /> the enforcement of a money judgement obtained in a proceeding to <br /> enforce state regulatory powers. Paragraph 2 of the Settlement <br /> Agreement therefore should provide that "The penalty shall be paid <br /> to the Division by the operator not later than 30 days from the <br /> date thereof subject to any applicable provisions of the U.S. <br /> Bankruptcy Code. " Because of the pending bankruptcy, we do not <br /> believe that payment of the penalty will in fact be made within 30 <br /> days. Finally, please note that Diane Delaney has signed the <br /> Settlement Agreements on behalf of Mid-Continent Resources, Inc. as <br /> debtor in possession pursuant to Chapter 11 of the United States <br /> Bankruptcy Code. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> PARCEL, MAURO, HULTIN & SPAANSTRA, P.C. <br /> 1 <br /> Dean R.
