A segment of the well passes through ADL 0047468. Normally, a Spacing Exception to 20 AAC 25.055(a)(1) would be required. In this case, the Sak River #1A does not intend to produce that section of the well bore within 500' of the property boundary of ADL 0390429, ADL 0390432, and ADL 0047468, if oil bearing reservoirs were encountered within that well segment. BRPC has a Designation of Operator for all three leases. Should BRPC wish to produce from strata within 500' of the leases identified, a Spacing Exception to 20 AAC 25.055(a)(1) will be required. If you require additional information please do not hesitate to contact me. Regards, Art 1 /21 /2009 Page 2 of 2 U Art Saltmarsh Sr. Petroleum Geologist Ak.
