General Information About the Litieation The Litigation seeks damages for Defendant's alleged underpayment of royalties to the royalty owners in the Class described above on Oklahoma wells where Defendant (or a predecessor or affiliate of Defendant) is or was the operator or, as a non -operator, Defendant (or a predecessor or affiliate of Defendant) separately marketed gas. Plaintiff John Cecil ("Plaintiff') alleges that BP America breached an implied covenant to market, breached the underlying leases, breached an alleged fiduciary duty, violated RICO, and committed fraud with respect to royalty payments for gas and its constituents (including helium, residue gas, natural gas liquids, nitrogen and condensate). These claims are premised on a variety of allegations, including but not limited to the allegations that Defendant (or a predecessor or affiliate of Defendant): (1) made various deductions and reductions from royalty payments that should not have been made by deducting direct and indirect fees for marketing, gathering, compression, dehydration, processing, treatment, and other similar services before the gas and its constituents (including helium, residue gas, natural gas liquids, nitrogen, and drip condensate) was a "marketable product"; (2) did not pay royalty, or underpaid royalty, on gas that was used off the lease premises or in the manufacture of products; (3) did not pay royalty, or underpaid royalty, on drip condensate that dropped out of the gas stream; (4) failed to provide to royalty payees all of the information required by statute; and, (5) made affiliate sales. Defendant expressly denies all allegations of wrongdoing or liability with respect to the claims and allegations in the Litigation. The Court has made no determination with respect to any of the parties' claims or defenses. A more complete description of the Litigation, its status, and the rulings made in the Litigation are available in the pleadings and other papers maintained by the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Oklahoma, located at 101 North 5th Street, Muskogee, Oklahoma 74401, in the file for Case No. 16 - CV -00410 -RAW. II. The Settlement Attorneys' Fees Litigation Expenses, Case Contribution Award, And The Settlement Allocation And Distribution To The Class On April_, 2018, the Court preliminarily approved a Settlement in the Litigation between Plaintiff, on behalf of himself and the Settlement Class, and Defendant. This approval and this Notice are not an expression of opinion by the Court as to the merits of any of the claims or defenses asserted by any of the parties to the Litigation, or of whether the Court will ultimately approve the Settlement Agreement. In settlement of all claims alleged in the Litigation, Defendant has agreed to pay One Hundred Forty - Seven Million Dollars ($147,000,000.00) in cash ("Gross Settlement Fund"), plus Defendant implemented new procedures and policies for calculating and paying royalty with respect to production on Class Wells (the "Past Benefits"), the value of which will be estimated by Plaintiffs expert. Defendant has also agreed to maintain these procedures and policies with respect to production on Class Wells for at least the next 7 years, which Plaintiff estimates has a net present value of no less than $35,000,000 (the "Future Benefits"). In exchange for the payment noted above and other consideration outlined in the Settlement Agreement, the Settlement Class shall release the Released Claims (as defined in the Settlement Agreement available for review and download at www.cecil-bp.com) against the Released, Parties (as defined in the Settlement Agreement). The $147,000,000.00 cash payment, plus the Past and Future Benefits is referred to as the "Gross 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 90 of 140 Settlement Value." The Gross Settlement Fund, less reasonable Plaintiffs Attorneys' Fees, Litigation Expenses, any Case Contribution Award, and other costs approved by the Court (the "Net Settlement Fund"), will be distributed to Class Members. Counsel for Plaintiff ("Plaintiffs Counsel") intends to seek an award of attorneys' fees of not more than 40% of the Gross Settlement Value. Plaintiffs Counsel, Reagan Bradford and Mark Lanier of The Lanier Law Firm and Rex Sharp and Barbara Frankland of Rex A. Sharp, P.A., have been litigating this case without any payment whatsoever, advancing hundreds of thousands of dollars in expenses. At the Final Fairness Hearing, Plaintiffs Counsel will also seek reimbursement of the Litigation Expenses incurred in connection with the prosecution of this Litigation and that will be incurred through final distribution of the Settlement, which amount will not exceed $900,000.00, to be paid out of the Gross Settlement Fund. In addition, Plaintiff intends to seek a Case Contribution Award for its representation of the Class, which amount will not exceed $350,000.00, to compensate Plaintiff for his time, expense, risk and burden as serving as Class Representative. The Court must approve the Allocation Methodology and Initial Plan of Allocation, which describe how the Settlement Administrator will allocate the Net Settlement Fund to each Class Member. A general description of that process is: Plaintiffs Counsel will first allocate the Net Settlement Fund proportionately to each Class Well' with due regard for: (i) the production BP America marketed on behalf of itself and/or others; (ii) the amount and date of claimed royalty underpayment to Class Members; (iii) the time period when the claimed underpayment occurred; and (iv) the distribution of small amounts that would exceed the cost of the distribution. Thereafter, subject to approval by the Court, the Settlement Administrator will allocate the Net Settlement Fund for each Class Well among all Class Members in that Class Well based on their royalty decimal interest in that Class Well using the royalty payment information described in paragraph 3.3 of the Settlement Agreement. The distribution to current Class Members described above is based on the following assumptions: (a) that very few sales of royalty interests have occurred during the specified time period; (b) that where sales did occur, the parties intended for the buyer to receive payment for past claims; and (c) that where royalty interests passed through inheritance, devise, or interfamily transfers, it was the intent that the heir, devisee or transferee receive the right to receive payment for claims based on past production. The Net Settlement Fund will be distributed by the Settlement Administrator within 7 months after the Effective Date of the Settlement. The Effective Date requires the exhaustion of any appeals, which may take a year or more after the entry of Judgment. The Settlement may be terminated on several grounds, including if the Court does not approve or materially modifies the terms of the Settlement. If the Settlement is terminated, the Litigation will proceed as if the Settlement had not been reached. This Notice does not and cannot set out all the terms of the Settlement Agreement, which is available for review and download at www.cecil-bp.com. This website will eventually include this Class Notice, a preliminary Class Well list, the Initial Plan of Allocation, and the Plaintiffs Counsel's application for Attorneys' Fees, Litigation Expenses, and Case Contribution Award. You may also receive information about the progress of the Settlement by visiting the website at www.cecil-bp.com, or by contacting the Settlement Administrator at the address set forth above. I1I. Class Settlement Fairness Hearine The Final Fairness Hearing will be held on 2018 beginning at_p.m., before the Honorable Ronald A. White, U.S. District Court Chief Judge for the Eastern District of Oklahoma, 101 North 5th Street, Paragraph 1.5 of the Settlement Agreement defines "Class Wells". 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 91 of 140 Muskogee, Oklahoma.

The claims in this matter relate to royalty payments for gas and its constituents (such as residue gas, natural gas liquids, helium, nitrogen, or drip condensate). Excluded from the Class are: (1) United States agencies and Indian tribes and allottees; (2) the State of Oklahoma or any of its agencies or departments that own royalty interests; (3) Defendant, its affiliates, predecessors, and employees, officers, and directors; (4) the claims of royalty owners to the extent their claims are covered by prior settlement agreements, if any, releasing claims as to all or part of the Class Period, but only to the extent such prior settlements fully released the claims of such royalty owner(s) that would be released by this proposed class settlement as to the Class Wells, Released Parties, and Released Claims (the intent being that this Settlement be and remain effective as to any claims not already released by any such prior settlement agreements); (5) overriding royalty owners and others whose interest was carved out from the lessee's working interest; (6) officers of the Court in this case; (7) persons or entities that the Court determines Plaintiff's Counsel are prohibited from representing under Rule 1.7 of the Oklahoma Rules of Professional Conduct; (8) any publicly traded company and their affiliated entities that produces, gathers, processes or markets gas; and (9) royalty owners who are suing in their individual capacities only for the alleged underpayment or nonpayment of royalties in Watts, et al. v. BP America Production Company, Case No. C-2001-73 in the District Court for Pittsburg County, Oklahoma. I The lawsuit Cecil v. BP America, Case No. 16 -CV -00410 -RAW (E.D.

Defendant denies all liability but has agreed to the proposed Settlement to avoid the uncertainty, burden, and expense of continued litigation. The Court did not decide which side is right. On April _, 2018, the Court preliminarily approved a Settlement in which Defendant has agreed to pay One Hundred Forty -Seven Million Dollars ($147,000,000.00) in cash (the "Gross Settlement Fund") and has implemented new procedures and policies for calculating and paying royalty with respect to production on Class Wells (the "Past Benefit"), the value of which will be estimated by Plaintiffs expert. Defendant has also agreed to maintain these royalty payment procedures and policies for at least the next 7 years, which Plaintiff estimates has a net present value of no less than $35,000,000 (the "Future Benefits"). From the Gross Settlement Fund, the Court may deduct reasonable Attorneys' Fees, Litigation Expenses, a Case Contribution Award, and any settlement Administration, Notice, and Distribution Costs. The remainder of the fund (the "Net Settlement Fund") will be distributed to eligible Class Members based on a variety of factors including: the production marketed by BP America from each Class Well, the amount and date of claimed royalty underpayment to Class Members in that Class Well, the time period when the claimed underpayment occurred, and the distribution of small amounts that exceed the cost of the distribution.

Excluded from the Class are: (1) United States agencies and Indian tribes and allottees; (2) the State of Oklahoma or any of its agencies or departments that own royalty interests; (3) Defendant, its affiliates, predecessors, and employees, officers, and directors; (4) the claims of royalty owners to the extent their claims are covered by prior settlement agreements, if any, releasing claims as to all or part of the Class Period, but only to the extent such prior settlements fully 16 r 1 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 17 of 140 released the claims of such royalty owner(s) that would be released by this proposed class settlement as to the Class Wells, Released Parties, and Released Claims (the intent being that this Settlement be and remain effective as to any claims not already released by any such prior settlement agreements); (5) overriding royalty owners and others whose interest was carved out from the lessee's working interest; (6) officers of the Court in this case; (7) persons or entities that the Court determines Plaintiffs Counsel are prohibited from representing under Rule 1.7 of the Oklahoma Rules of Professional Conduct; (8) any publicly traded company and their affiliated entities that produces, gathers, processes or markets gas; and (9) royalty owners who are suing in their individual capacities only for the alleged underpayment or nonpayment of royalties in Watts, et al. v. BP America Production Company, Case No. C-2001- 73 in the District Court for Pittsburg County, Oklahoma.2 2. CONSIDERATION 2.1 The Defendant's ability to buy peace from litigation concerning the Released Claims and finality of resolution concerning said claims is material to its willingness to enter into this Settlement Agreement and to deliver the consideration that it is providing herein. In consideration for the releases, covenants, and agreements given by the Releasing Parties in this Settlement Agreement, Defendant agrees to provide pursuant to this Settlement, for distribution in the manner set forth in this Settlement Agreement, the Gross Settlement Fund of One Hundred Forty -Seven Million Dollars ($147,000,000.00). Defendant further agrees to act in the future in accordance with the go -forward, future benefits and forms of consideration that are described as part of the components of additional consideration set forth in the definition of Gross Settlement Value. 2.2 Defendant shall pay or cause to be paid one-half of the Gross Settlement Fund (i.e., the sum of $73,500,000) into the Escrow Account within forty-five (45) days after entry of the Preliminary Approval Order. Defendant shall pay or cause to be paid the remaining 2 The Plaintiffs in the Watts v. Amoco case as of the date hereof are: Ronald W. McGee, as Trustee of Watts Ranch, LLC; Nora Ann Watts Enis; Judy R. Durant; Johnye L. Barnes; the Estate of Clara Joann Smith; and the C&J Wilcox Family Trust. 17 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 18 of 140 second -half of the Gross Settlement Fund (i.e., the sum of $73,500,000) into the Escrow Account, in Defendant's sole discretion, either (i) within ten (10) days after the Judgment is entered; or (ii) within ten (10) days after the Effective Date. Provided, however, that in the event that Defendant elects option (ii) above, then, in addition to the principal amount, Defendant shall also pay interest thereon from the date the Judgment is entered through and including the date of payment at a rate equal to the U.S. Treasury Bill daily interest rate (based on a 52-week maturity) as of the date on which the Judgment is entered. After the date on which Defendant has paid the entire Gross Settlement Fund in the manner set out above, neither Defendant nor any of the Released Parties shall have any further liability to the Settlement Class with respect to the Gross Settlement Fund or its administration, including but not limited to any distributions made from the Gross Settlement Fund. 2.3 The Parties agree that the settlement of the Released Claims and the other provisions of this Settlement Agreement and the resulting Settlement are supported by good and adequate consideration including the Gross Settlement Value and the Parties' agreements, releases, and covenants herein. 2.4 As to the Class Wells, Defendant agrees to continue to use the procedures and practices currently in place (referred to herein as "Future Benefits") for a period of seven (7) years beginning May 1, 2018 through April 31, 2025. Specifically, where the royalties of the Class Members are paid under oil and gas leases or other governing documents that do not include express and detailed wording expressly allowing or disallowing the deduction of specified types of costs in the computation of royalty payments, royalties will be computed as follows: Defendant will determine the Class Member's royalty share from Defendant's working interest share of the wellhead metered gas and then deduct only third party processing 18 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 19 of 140 fees, volumes lost or consumed upstream of the tailgate of any third party processing plants, and mainline transportation costs to move product to downstream markets. Defendant's agreement set forth in this paragraph is not to be construed in any way as an admission that Oklahoma law requires such procedures and practices. It is understood and agreed that nothing in this Settlement Agreement, and in particular the provisions describing the manner in which Defendant will compute royalties with respect to the Class Wells for the above -referenced seven (7) year period is intended to prohibit Defendant from changing its method of royalty payments to implement changes that would benefit the Class Members. Plaintiffs expert estimates that over the seven (7) year time period, the Future Benefits have a net present value of no less than $35,000,000 to the Settlement Class. Plaintiff, the Settlement Class, and Defendant agree that the above dollar amounts are only the Plaintiff's expert's estimates, and that if the actual financial benefit of the Future Benefits differs from the estimate it shall not be the basis for a claim for any kind of relief, whether against Defendant, Defendant's Counsel, any Class Member, Plaintiffs Counsel, Plaintiff, Plaintiff's expert or any of their successors and assigns. 2.5 Class Members agree, in exchange for their respective shares of the Net Settlement Fund, the Past and Future Benefits, and the performance of the other obligations and duties of Defendant as set forth herein, to give the Releases, Dismissal, and Covenant Not to Sue described in Section 4 below, and the other valuable consideration provided under the other provisions of this Settlement Agreement. 3. PLAN OF NOTICE AND COURT APPROVALS 3.1 No later than three (3) days after the date this Settlement Agreement is executed by the Parties, Plaintiff will file a motion with the Court seeking preliminary approval of this 19 � r 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 20 of 140 Settlement Agreement, which shall include the proposed Preliminary Approval Order attached hereto as Exhibit 1, and entered by the Court without modification of any material terms and provisions therein (unless agreed to by both Defendant and Plaintiff). 3.2 omitted intentionally. 3.3 As soon as reasonably possible, but in no event more than seven (7) days after the Settlement Agreement is executed, Defendant shall provide Plaintiffs Counsel, subject to the understood designation of such materials as "Confidential" under the protective order addressing confidentiality concerns in this case, (a) in electronic format Defendant's December 2017 royalty paydeck data, including the payees' names, last known addresses, tax identification numbers, and royalty decimal interests for Class Wells that were producing and operated by Defendant as of December 2017 (such Settlement Class member- information shall be provided using the data within Defendant's royalty paydeck databases, and Defendant is under no obligation to research, scrutinize or double-check the correctness of that data before providing it to the Settlement Administrator for its use); (b) in electronic format a list of the Class Wells and the name of the person or entity who operates the wells so that the Settlement Administrator (or other consultant retained pursuant to paragraph 1.1) can make reasonable efforts to obtain December 2017 (or most recent available) royalty paydecks that include the payees' names, last known addresses, tax identification numbers, and royalty decimal interests of Class Members. Defendant will cooperate in obtaining royalty pay decks from third -party operators by sending a letter substantially in the form set forth as Exhibit 7; and, (c) for Class Wells that have been sold, assigned, transferred, or are no longer producing, in electronic format the last known royalty paydeck data, including payees' names, last known addresses, FIE 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 21 of 140 tax identification numbers, and royalty decimal interests based on electronic payment data reasonably available to Defendant. 3.4 Within forty-five (45) days after entry of the Preliminary Approval Order, or as otherwise ordered by the Court, the Settlement Administrator will mail (or cause to be mailed) the Notice of Settlement by first class mail to all potential Class Members who have been identified after reasonable efforts to do so. The Notice of Settlement will be mailed to members of the Settlement Class using the royalty paydeck data described in paragraph 3.3 above, the royalty paydeck data that can be reasonably and timely obtained from third -party operators in a useable format, and any updated addresses found by the Settlement Administrator. Within five (5) days after mailing of the first Notice of Settlement, the Settlement Administrator also shall publish (or cause to be published) the summary Notice of Settlement one time in each of the following newspapers: (1) The Oklahoman, a paper of general circulation in Oklahoma; (2) The Tulsa World, a paper of general circulation in Oklahoma; (3) The Muskogee Phoenix, a paper of local circulation; and, (4) The McAlester News Capital & Democrat, a paper of local circulation. Within five (5) days after mailing the first Notice of Settlement and through the Final Fairness Hearing, the Settlement Administrator will also display (or cause to be displayed) on an Internet website dedicated to this Settlement the following documents: (a) the Notice of Settlement, (b) the last proposed amended Complaint without Confidential Information references which Defendant will not Answer but generally denies, (c) this Settlement Agreement, and (d) the Preliminary Approval Order. Neither Defendant, Defendant's Counsel, Plaintiff, the Settlement Class, nor Plaintiffs Counsel shall have any liability for failure of the Notice of Settlement to reach any Class Member. 3.5 omitted intentionally. 21 r" 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 22 of 140 3.6 No later than seven (7) days prior to the opt-out/objection deadline, and if the Settlement has not been terminated pursuant to this Settlement Agreement, Plaintiff shall move for: (a) final approval of the Settlement pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23(e); (b) entry of the Judgment having the content attached as Exhibit 2, and entered by the Court without modification of any material terms and provisions therein (unless agreed to by both Defendant and Plaintiff); (c) final approval of the Allocation Methodology and Initial Plan of Allocation; and (d) Plaintiffs Attorneys' Fees, Litigation Expenses, and/or a Case Contribution Award. After Notice of Settlement is given in the manner directed by the Court, Plaintiff will request the Court to then enter the Judgment, and specifically approving all terms and provisions of this Settlement Agreement, including the Allocation Methodology and Final Plan of Allocation; provided, however, that Defendant will take no position on the Allocation Methodology (or any Plan of Allocation implementing the Allocation Methodology). The Judgment shall have the content attached hereto as Exhibit 2, without modification of any material terms and provisions therein (unless agreed to by both Defendant and Plaintiff). 3.7 The Parties request that the Court to stay the Litigation pending the Court's decision on final approval of the Settlement Agreement. In addition, Defendant requests (and Plaintiff does not oppose) that the Court enjoin and restrain all members of the Settlement Class from continuing, maintaining, filing, commencing, prosecuting, supporting, intervening in, or participating as plaintiffs, claimants, or class members in any other action or proceeding in any jurisdiction against the Released Parties, or any of them, based on, relating to, or arising out of the claims and causes of action, or the facts and circumstances at issue in this Litigation and/or the Released Claims until the date upon which: (i) the Court enters a final order herein approving the proposed Settlement and entering the Judgment, (ii) the Court enters a final order 22 f' 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 23 of 140 herein denying approval of the proposed Settlement, or (iii) the Settlement Agreement is otherwise terminated. 4. RELEASES, DISMISSAL, AND COVENANTS 4.1 Upon the Effective Date, the Released Parties, individually and collectively, shall be fully, finally, and forever deemed to have been released by the Releasing Parties from the Released Claims. The Releasing Parties shall be enjoined from asserting or prosecuting any Released Claims against any Released Parties. 4.2 Upon the Effective Date, Defendant covenants and agrees that it will not make out -of -period adjustments for the purpose of directly or indirectly clawing back, recouping or reversing the monies paid by Defendant under this Settlement Agreement. 4.3 Upon the Effective Date, the Releasing Parties, and each of them: (i) agree and covenant that, in addition to the foregoing release of the Released Claims, they shall not, at any time, directly or indirectly, on their own behalf or through others, sue, instigate, institute, or assert against the Released Parties any claims or actions on or concerning the Released Claims based in whole or in part on any facts existing during the Claim Period, and (ii) acknowledge that the foregoing covenant shall apply and have effect by virtue of this Settlement Agreement and by operation of the Judgment. Plaintiffs Counsel and the Releasing Parties further agree and acknowledge that the covenants not to sue provided for in this paragraph are made to inure to the benefit of, and are specifically enforceable by, each of the Released Parties. 5. ESCROW ACCOUNT AND PAYMENT OF TAXES 5.1 All funds held by the Escrow Agent shall be deemed to be in the custody of the Court and shall remain subject to the jurisdiction of the Court until such time as the funds shall be distributed or returned pursuant to the terms of this Settlement Agreement and/or 23 I r 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 24 of 140 further order of the Court. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing between Defendant and Plaintiff's Counsel, the Escrow Agent shall maintain all funds in one of the top 5 U.S. banks, in accounts fully insured by the United States Government Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), or a like United States Government backed investment such as United States Treasury Bills. All risks related to the investment of the Gross Settlement Fund shall be borne solely by the Gross Settlement Fund. 5.2 The Parties agree that the Gross Settlement Fund is intended to be a qualified settlement fund within the meaning of section 46813(d)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code and Treasury Regulation § 1.46813-1 and that the Settlement Administrator, as administrator of the Escrow Account within the meaning of Treasury Regulation § 1.468B - 2(k)(3), shall be solely responsible for timely filing or causing to be filed all information and tax returns as may be necessary or appropriate (including, without limitation, the returns described in Treasury Regulation § 1.468B -2(k)). All taxes, interest and penalties on the income earned on the funds in the Escrow Account shall be paid out of the Escrow Account as provided herein and pursuant to the disbursement instructions set forth in the Escrow Agreement. The Settlement Administrator shall also be solely responsible for causing payment to be made from the Gross Settlement Fund of any taxes, interest and penalties owed with respect to the Gross Settlement Fund. The Settlement Administrator, as administrator of the Gross Settlement Fund within the meaning of Treasury Regulation §1.468B -2(k)(3), shall timely make such elections as are necessary or advisable to carry out this paragraph, including, as necessary, making a "relation back election," as described in Treasury Regulation § 1.46813-10), to cause the qualified settlement fund to come into existence at the earliest allowable date, and shall take or cause to be taken all actions as may 24 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 25 of 140 be necessary or appropriate in connection therewith. 5.3 Any tax returns prepared for the Gross Settlement Fund (as well as the election set forth therein) shall be consistent with the Settlement Agreement and in all events shall reflect that all taxes (including any interest or penalties) on the income earned by the Gross Settlement Fund shall be paid out of the Gross Settlement Fund as provided herein. The Gross Settlement Fund shall indemnify and hold all Released Parties, Defendant, Defendant's Counsel, and Plaintiff's Counsel harmless for any taxes, interest, penalties and related expenses of any kind whatsoever. The Parties shall notify the Escrow Agent promptly if they receive any notice of any claim for taxes relating to the Gross Settlement Fund. 5.4 All income taxes, if any, incurred on the part of Class Members in connection with the implementation of this Settlement Agreement shall be reported and paid by the individual Class Members to the extent of their individual tax liability on proceeds they individually receive. Except for any amounts withheld for tax purposes by the Settlement Administrator, the individual Class Members are solely responsible for the payment of any and all taxes attributable to payments made to them under this Settlement Agreement. Plaintiff, Plaintiffs Counsel, Defendant, Defendant's Counsel, the Gross Settlement Fund, and the Settlement Administrator shall have no responsibility or liability whatsoever for any such payments. Defendant, Defendant's Counsel, and Class Members will bear no responsibility for any taxes due on Plaintiff's Attorney's Fees or any reimbursement of Litigation Expenses and such taxes will not be paid from the Escrow Account. Plaintiff is solely responsible for any taxes due on any Case Contribution Award. Plaintiffs Counsel is responsible for and shall bear any taxes due on Plaintiffs Attorneys' Fees and/or due on reimbursement of Litigation Expenses. The Class Members, Plaintiffs Counsel and Plaintiff, and each of them, shall RR r � 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 26 of 140 indemnify and hold all Released Parties, Defendant and Defendant's Counsel harmless from and against any liability for any taxes, interest, penalties and related expenses of any kind whatsoever related to the payments they receive under this Settlement Agreement. 5.5 All distributions shall be subject to any required federal, state or local income tax withholding, which the Settlement Administrator shall withhold and pay to the appropriate taxing authorities. The Settlement Administrator shall prepare, file and provide IRS Forms 1099-MISC to Class Members, or, in the event a form 1099-MISC is not required, an explanation of such payment. In the event Forms 1099-MISC are not filed by the Settlement Administrator, the Settlement Administrator is solely responsible for paying any resulting taxes, interest or penalties associated with such failure to file Forms 1099-MISC. In the event a Distribution Check is not cashed or is returned to the Settlement Administrator, such that a Class Member does not receive payment of the amount distributed, the Settlement Administrator shall make reasonable efforts to identify a correct address for such Class Member and shall request a refund from the taxing authority to whom any withheld taxes were paid on behalf of the Class Member who did not receive payment, and any such refunds will become part of the Residual Unclaimed Funds. 5.6 The Parties agree that Defendant, Defendant's Counsel, and Plaintiffs Counsel have no responsibility or liability for any severance taxes or other taxes that any person or entity may later claim to be due on the amounts disbursed to the Class Members from the Escrow Account. 5.7 Defendant will have no input in determining the amount of taxes payable by the Settlement Class or how the taxes will be paid from the Gross Settlement Fund and likewise 26 r � 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 27 of 140 will not be bound in any respect by such determination or be attributed with any agreement as to whether the taxes paid by the Settlement Class are due or payable. 5.8 The Released Parties shall have no responsibility for, interest in, or liability whatsoever with respect to the maintenance, investment, distribution, or any other action or inaction related to the Net Settlement Fund, the payment or withholding of any taxes, or any other expenses or losses in connection with such matters. 5.9 Before making any distribution(s) from the Escrow Account prior to the Effective Date, approval of each proposed distribution must be obtained from Defendant, and then the Settlement Administrator and/or Plaintiff's Counsel must request and receive approval of the distribution from the Court in a written order. After the Effective Date, it shall no longer be necessary to first obtain approval from the Defendant of proposed distributions. The request for distribution shall include the amount of the distribution, a breakdown of the line items included in the proposed distribution, and any supporting documents necessary for the Court to verify that the amount comports with the terms of the Settlement and any applicable Court order. 6. CLAIMS ADMINISTRATION, ALLOCATION, AND DISTRIBUTION OF NET SETTLEMENT FUND 6.1 The Allocation Methodology is a matter separate and apart from the proposed Settlement between Plaintiff and Defendant and is to be considered by the Court separately from the Court's consideration of the fairness, reasonableness, and adequacy of this Settlement. Provided that none of the terms of the Settlement are modified by such decision, any decision by the Court concerning the Allocation Methodology shall not affect the validity or finality of the Settlement or operate to terminate or cancel this Settlement or affect the finality of the Judgment. Further, after the issuance of any notice contemplated by this Settlement Agreement 27 r r 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 28 of 140 or ordered by the Court, the Allocation Methodology may be modified without any further notice being required, provided the modification is approved by the Court. 6.2 Plaintiff's Counsel, with the assistance of the experts and consultants they retain, shall, subject to Court approval, allocate the Net Settlement Fund to individual Class Members who are participating in the Settlement proportionately, with due regard for: (a) the production marketed by Defendant on behalf of itself and/or others, (b) the amount and date of claimed royalty underpayment to Class Members, (c) the time period when the claimed underpayment occurred, and, (d) the distribution of small amounts that exceed the cost of the distribution. Thereafter, the Net Settlement Fund will be allocated for each Class Well proportionately among all Class Members in such well based on their respective royalty decimal interests using the approximate December 2017 royalty paydeck data provided by Defendant or obtained from a third -party pursuant to paragraph 3.3 (or another reasonably current available royalty paydeck), subject to review and approval by Plaintiffs Counsel and the Court. This allocation is subject to modification by Plaintiffs Counsel and final approval by the Court. Neither Defendant nor Defendant's Counsel is responsible or liable for any aspect of the Allocation Methodology or any plan of allocation implementing that methodology. 6.3 No later than seven (7) days prior to the opt-out/objection deadline, the Settlement Administrator and/or Plaintiffs Counsel will provide an Initial Plan of Allocation to the Court. The Initial Plan of Allocation will reflect the amount of the Distribution Check that would be sent to each putative Class Member based upon: (i) the royalty paydeck information provided by Defendant and obtained by third -party operators pursuant to paragraph 3.3 above; (ii) the assumption that no putative Class Member timely and properly submits a Request for Exclusion from the Settlement Class or is excluded from the Settlement Class by order of the 28 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 29 of 140 Court; and (iii) the assumption that Plaintiffs application for Plaintiff's Attorneys' Fees, Litigation Expenses, and a Case Contribution Award is approved. 6.4 Within five (5) days after the Effective Date, the Settlement Administrator will: (a) refund to Defendant (as set forth more specifically in paragraph 1.19) the amount attributable to the interests of members of the Settlement Class who timely and properly submitted a Request for Exclusion or who were otherwise excluded by order of the Court; and (b) provide Defendant with the detail necessary for the Court and Defendant to verify the Settlement Administrator's calculation of the refund amount. The amount of such refund will be calculated in accordance with the Allocation Methodology used in the Initial Plan of Allocation as applied to the Gross Settlement Fund without deduction for the following: (i) the amount of Plaintiffs Attorneys' Fees, Litigation Expenses, and Case Contribution Award; and (ii) the amount of any other expenses the Court approved to be paid from the Gross Settlement Fund (including, without limitation, any Administration, Notice, and Distribution Costs advanced by Plaintiffs Counsel and/or Defendant). 6.5 Within thirty (30) days after the Effective Date, Plaintiff will file the Final Plan of Allocation with the Court and seek approval thereof. The Final Plan of Allocation will reflect the proportionate amount of the Net Settlement Fund to be paid to each Class Member pursuant to the Allocation Methodology. 6.6 The Settlement Administrator shall administer the Settlement and distribute the Net Settlement Fund under Plaintiffs Counsel's supervision in accordance with this Settlement Agreement and any applicable orders of the Court and subject to the jurisdiction of the Court. Further, to the extent Defendant has not provided the taxpayer identification number for a Class Member, the Settlement Administrator shall make reasonable efforts to obtain the Class 29 I r 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 30 of 140 Member's tax identification number, including making reasonable inquiry and sending a form W-9 Request for Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification to the best reasonably obtainable address of the Class Member. Plaintiff, Defendant, and their respective Counsel shall cooperate in the administration of the Settlement to the extent reasonably necessary to effectuate its terms. 6.7 It is recognized that for Class Wells where Defendant, as a non -operator, separately marketed gas with current production, the Settlement Administrator, at the election of Defendant, may distribute to the operator the portion of the Net Settlement Fund allocated to that non -operated well for further distribution to royalty owners or remit those distributions directly to Class Members. For Class Wells currently operated by Defendant, the Settlement Administrator will proportionately distribute the Net Settlement Fund directly to Class Members. In the case of Class Wells Defendant previously operated but sold, assigned, transferred, or are no longer producing, the Settlement Administrator will make distribution directly to Class Members. However, if the information needed to make distribution cannot be obtained through such efforts, the portion of the Net Settlement Fund attributable to such Class Member will remain in the Net Settlement Fund as part of the Residual Unclaimed Funds. All distributions by the Settlement Administrator will be subject to review and approval by Plaintiff's Counsel and the Court. 6.8 The Parties agree that no part of the Gross Settlement Fund will be distributed until the Effective Date. If the Settlement is not finally approved in a Judgment, the full Gross Settlement Fund and any accrued interest or returns earned in the Escrow Account will be refunded to Defendant within five (5) days from the date of entry of an order by the Court declining to approve the Settlement. 30 r 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 31 of 140 6.9 After Court approval of the Final Plan of Allocation, the Settlement Administrator will make prompt distribution of funds to the persons ordered by the Court to receive those funds. The Settlement Administrator will only make distributions based on the Final Plan of Allocation approved by the Court. It is contemplated that distributions may be made in waves, where using that approach is more efficient for the Settlement Administrator, so that payments to readily identified Class Members are not unduly delayed. If possible and feasible just before distribution to Class Members, the remaining funds in the interest bearing Escrow Account shall be transferred to a non-interest bearing account so as to avoid excessive fees for check writing. The Settlement Administrator will make a diligent effort to mail the first Distribution Checks within 90 days after the Effective Date and, within the subsequent 90 days, will mail the Distribution Checks representing 95% of the Net Settlement Fund (such percentage to be calculated based upon the amount of payments shown in the Final Plan of Allocation). The remainder of the Net Settlement Fund will be distributed to Class Members within 210 days after the Effective Date. Any portion of the Net Settlement Fund remaining ninety (90) days after the Settlement Administrator sends the final wave of Distribution Checks will be considered to be Residual Unclaimed Funds. 6.10 The Settlement Administrator will use commercially reasonable efforts, subject to review and approval by Plaintiffs Counsel, to distribute the Net Settlement Fund. If the information needed to send a Distribution Check cannot be obtained through such efforts, the portion of the Net Settlement Fund attributable to such Class Member will remain in the Escrow Account as Residual Unclaimed Funds. 6.11 If a Distribution Check is returned to the Settlement Administrator for incorrect or insufficient address, the Settlement Administrator and/or consultants working with the 31 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 32 of 140 Settlement Administrator will use commercially reasonable methods to locate an updated address and will re -issue and re -mail the Distribution Check within 10 days. If the second Distribution Check is returned and the Class Member cannot be located through commercially reasonable efforts, the portion of the Net Settlement Fund attributable to them will remain in the Net Settlement Fund for 45 days after the date the second Distribution Check was returned and, thereafter, will be considered Residual Unclaimed Funds. Any remaining Residual Unclaimed Funds shall be paid pursuant to the provisions of paragraph 6.18. 6.12 Included with each Distribution Check shall be an enclosure that includes the following notice (or, if a change is required by the Court, a notice substantially the same as the following): TO: Class Member or Designated Royalty Distributor: The enclosed check represents a share of the net settlement fund in settlement of the Class Action Cecil v. BP, Case No. 16 -CV -00410 -RAW, in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Oklahoma. You are receiving this notice and check because: (1) you have been identified as a Class Member in this action, or (2) you are the designated royalty distributor of a well in which Defendant or a predecessor or assignee of Defendant, currently and/or in prior periods, marketed their own gas. If you are not legally entitled to the proceeds identified on the check, the Court has entered an Order that requires you to pay these proceeds to persons legally entitled thereto or return this check uncashed to the sender. If you are a designated royalty distributor, you are required to pay these proceeds to the current royalty owners in each of the wells identified on the check detail, and a copy of this notice should be included with the payment to each such royalty owner. The distribution described above to Class Members is based on the assumption that very few sales of royalty interests have occurred. It has also been assumed that where sales did occur, it was the intent of the parties that the buyer was entitled to receive payment for past claims. Finally, it has been assumed that where royalty interests passed through inheritance, devise, or interfamily transfers, that it was the intent that the heir, devisee, or transferee also receive payment for past claims. To the extent that these assumptions are not correct in relation to particular transfers of interest, the Court has ordered that the Class Member who receives payment shall in turn make payment to the proper party or return this check uncashed to the sender. The person to whom this check was originally made payable, and anyone to whom the check has been assigned by that person, has accepted this payment pursuant to the terms of the Settlement Agreement, Notice of Settlement, and Judgment related thereto, which releases, Defendant, and the 32 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 33 of 140 other Released Parties (as defined in the Settlement Agreement) from any and all Released Claims (as defined in the Settlement Agreement). Pursuant to the Order of the Court, it is the duty of the payee of the check to ensure that the funds are paid to the Class Member(s) entitled to the funds, and the release by Class Member(s) entitled to the funds shall be effective regardless of whether such Class Member(s) receive some, all, or none of the proceeds paid to a payee of a settlement check. This check shall be null and void if not endorsed and negotiated within ninety (90) days of its date. The release of claims provided in the Settlement shall be effective regardless of whether this check is cashed. 6.13 Defendant, Defendant's Counsel, the Settlement Administrator, Plaintiff, and Plaintiff's Counsel shall have no liability to any Class Member for mis-payments, over- payments, or underpayments of the Net Settlement Fund. 6.14 If any Class Member has been paid any portion of the Net Settlement Fund for any period of time for which that Class Member was not entitled to receive that payment, and some other person or entity who owned or claims to have owned the right to assert the Released Claims and asserts a claim against any of the Released Parties for payment of all or a portion of the Net Settlement Fund or any other Released Claim, then the Class Member who received an excess share shall be liable for the overpayment amount to the person who is determined to have been properly owed that amount, and that Class Member shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless any of the Released Parties, Plaintiff's Counsel, or any other Class Member. 6.15 To the extent not specifically addressed above, any other amount of the Net Settlement Fund that remains in the Net Settlement Fund account seventy-five (75) days after the Settlement Administrator sends the final wave of Distribution Checks and for which further distribution is not economically viable, shall be considered Residual Unclaimed Funds. 6.16 Within seventy-five (75) days after the Settlement Administrator sends the final wave of Distribution Checks, the Settlement Administrator shall send a reconciliation of the 33 i' 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 34 of 140 amount remaining in the Escrow Account to Defendant and Plaintiffs Counsel, and Plaintiff shall submit applications to the Court to distribute such funds pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The reconciliation must include: (i) a detail of each distribution made from the Escrow Account; (ii) the total Residual Unclaimed Funds and detail sufficient to verify that total; and (iii) detail showing the total amount of the Administration, Notice and Distribution Costs paid from the Escrow Account. 6.17 Upon completing all distributions of the Net Settlement Fund to Class Members (including any necessary supplemental distributions), and complying with the Court's order(s) in furtherance of this Settlement, the Settlement Administrator will have satisfied all obligations relating to the payment and distribution of the Net Settlement Fund. 6.18 Any Residual Unclaimed Funds remaining in the Escrow Account after distribution has otherwise been completed shall be held for cy pres distribution to Oklahoma institutions of higher education as recommended by Plaintiffs Counsel and subject to Court approval. 6.19 The Court shall retain jurisdiction to determine any issues relating to the payment and distribution of the Net Settlement Fund, and any claims relating thereto shall be determined by the Court alone and shall be limited to a determination of the claimant's entitlement to any portion of the Net Settlement Fund, and no consequential, punitive, or other damages; attorneys' fees any other applicable fees; interest; or costs shall be awarded in any proceeding regarding any such determination. 6.20 The Releases, Dismissal and Covenants shall be effective as provided in this Settlement Agreement, regardless of whether or not particular Class Members did or did not receive payment in connection with this Settlement Agreement and regardless of whether or 34 f 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 35 of 140 not any Class Member who was obligated pursuant to the Judgment to pay some or all of the distributed funds to another Class Member in fact made such payment to such other member of the Settlement Class. The failure of a Class Member to make a payment required of it pursuant to the payment obligations of the Judgment shall not be a defense to enforcement of the Release of the Released Claims against the Released Parties or the Covenant Not to Sue, as to any Class Member. 6.21 Except in the case of willful and intentional malfeasance of a dishonest nature directly causing such loss, Plaintiff's Counsel, Plaintiff, the Settlement Class and the Released Parties shall have no liability for loss of any portion of the Gross or Net Settlement Fund under any circumstances and, in the event of such malfeasance, only the party whose malfeasance directly caused the loss has any liability for the portion of the Gross or Net Settlement Fund lost. 7. ATTORNEYS' FEES, CASE CONTRIBUTION AWARD, AND LITIGATION EXPENSES 7.1 No later than seven (7) days prior to the opt-out/objection deadline, Plaintiff's Counsel may apply to the Court for an award of attorneys' fees to Plaintiff's Counsel, a Case Contribution Award to Plaintiff, and for reimbursement of Litigation Expenses. Defendant has no obligation for Plaintiff's Attorneys' Fees, Case Contribution Award, or Litigation Expenses. Therefore, Defendant shall not take any position with respect to the applications; the amount of attorneys' fees, Case Contribution Award, or Litigation Expenses sought; or with respect to whether the Court should make any or all such awards. However, Defendant agrees not to contest an application for attorneys' fees up to 40% of the Gross Settlement Fund. Any award of attorneys' fees, Case Contribution Award, or Litigation Expenses will be governed by federal common law, including federal equitable common fund class action law. Plaintiff and 35 i 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 36 of 140 Plaintiffs Counsel agree they seek any award of fees to Plaintiffs Counsel, Case Contribution Award to Plaintiff, and Litigation Expenses exclusively from the Gross Settlement Fund. The Released Parties shall have no responsibility for and shall take no position with respect to the allocation among Plaintiffs Counsel of Plaintiffs Attorneys' Fees or Litigation Expenses, nor will they encourage anyone to object thereto. 7.2 omitted intentionally 7.3 Any attorneys' fees, Case Contribution Award, or Litigation Expenses that are awarded by the Court shall be paid only consistent with the Court's order from the Gross Settlement Fund, five (5) days after the Effective Date. 7.4 An award of Plaintiffs' Attorneys' Fees, Case Contribution Award, or Litigation Expenses is not a necessary term of this Settlement Agreement and is not a condition of this Settlement Agreement. No decision by the Court or any court on any application for an award of Plaintiff s Attorneys' Fees, Case Contribution Award, or Litigation Expenses shall affect the validity or finality of the Settlement. Plaintiff and Plaintiffs Counsel may not cancel or terminate the Settlement Agreement or the Settlement based on this Court's or any other court's ruling with respect to Plaintiffs Attorneys' Fees, Case Contribution Award, or Litigation Expenses. 8. REQUESTS FOR EXCLUSION 8.1 Plaintiff shall not submit a Request for Exclusion and neither Plaintiff, Plaintiffs Counsel, Defendant, Defendant's Counsel, nor anyone acting on behalf of said persons or entities shall encourage anyone else to submit a Request for Exclusion. Nevertheless, this Settlement Agreement does not prohibit Plaintiffs Counsel from counseling any member of the Settlement Class as to his, her, or its legal rights or prohibit any member of 36 j 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 37 of 140 the Settlement Class who seeks such counsel from electing to file a Request for Exclusion from the Settlement Class in accordance with the Court's orders on the subject. 8.2 Any member of the Settlement Class who timely and properly submits a valid Request for Exclusion (a member of the Settlement Class may opt out individually and on its own behalf only, and not as or on behalf of a class, subclass, proposed class, or otherwise on behalf of any others whatsoever), as described below, shall, as provided in Section 1.6 above, not be considered a Class Member and shall have no right to object to or attack the Settlement in any way, including but not limited to, objecting to the fairness, reasonableness and/or amount of any aspect of the Settlement, Notice of Settlement or due process, Plaintiff's Counsel's request for Plaintiff's Attorneys' Fees and Litigation Expenses, Case Contribution Award, the Allocation Methodology or any Plan of Allocation using the Allocation Methodology, or any distribution of the Net Settlement Fund. 8.3 All Requests for Exclusion must be mailed to the Settlement Administrator by United States Certified Mail, return receipt requested, using the addresses for the Settlement Administrator shown in the Notices that will be mailed to members of the Settlement Class, and published in certain newspapers, so as to be received by the deadline that will be specified in the Notice forms, unless such deadline is changed or altered by order of the Court. The Settlement Administrator will in turn promptly email each Request for Exclusion it receives to Plaintiff's Counsel and Defendant's Counsel, using email addresses each set of counsel will provide to the Settlement Administrator. 8.4 All Requests for Exclusion must include: (a) the name, address, telephone number, and notarized signature of the putative Class Member; (b) a statement that the putative Class Member wishes to be excluded from the Settlement Class in Cecil v. BP, Case No. 16- 37 i 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 38 of 140 CV -00410 -RAW (E.D. Okla.); and (c) a description of the putative Class Member's interest in any Oklahoma wells where Defendant, including its predecessors or affiliates, is or was the operator or, as a non -operator, Defendant separately marketed gas, including the well name, well number, county in which the well is located, and the owner identification number. Requests for Exclusion may not be submitted through the website or by telephone, facsimile, or e-mail. 8.5 A Request for Exclusion shall become effective to exclude the party filing the request from the Settlement Class only upon entry by the Court of the Judgment. TERMINATION 9.1 Plaintiff and Defendant shall each have the right to terminate the Settlement and this Settlement Agreement by providing written notice to the other of their election to do so within ten (10) days after the occurrence of any of the following events: (a) the Court enters an order (i) denying the motion for preliminary approval of the Settlement, or (ii) declining to enter the Preliminary Approval Order as shown on Exhibit 1 without modification of any material terms and provisions therein (unless agreed to by both Defendant and Plaintiff); (b) the Court refuses to approve this Settlement Agreement or any material part of it; (c) the Court denies the motion for final approval or declines to enter the Judgment as shown on Exhibit 2 without modification of any material terms and provisions therein (unless agreed to by both Defendant and Plaintiff); (d) the Judgment is modified or reversed in any material respect and such modification or reversal becomes Final and Non -Appealable; or (e) the Parties mutually determine, or the Court determines through a ruling that becomes Final and Non -Appealable under the same standards being applied to the anticipated Judgment with respect to this Settlement, that the Effective Date is never going to occur. Provided, however, that any court 38 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Oocument 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 39 of 140 decision, ruling, or order solely with respect to an application for attorneys' fees, Case Contribution Award, or Litigation Expenses, or to the Allocation Methodology (or any Plan of Allocation using the Allocation Methodology) shall not be grounds for termination. 9.2 Defendant shall have the right and option, in its sole discretion, to terminate the Settlement and this Settlement Agreement if members of the Settlement Class having claims which, in the aggregate, are in excess of five -percent (5%) of the Gross Settlement Fund (before any deductions of any kind are made from that fund) file Requests for Exclusion from the proposed Settlement provided for by this Settlement Agreement. Within five (5) days after the expiration of the deadline set forth in the Preliminary Approval Order for the submission of Requests for Exclusion to be mailed to the Settlement Administrator (as that deadline may be extended by the Court), the Settlement Administrator shall determine whether the five -percent (5%) threshold for opt -outs has been met, and the Settlement Administrator shall notify Plaintiffs Counsel and Defendant's Counsel in writing regarding the results of that determination and simultaneously provide a list of the members of the Settlement Class who have timely filed Requests for Exclusion. Defendant's election to terminate this settlement must be exercised by notice to Plaintiff's Counsel and the Court by e -filing such election with the Clerk of the Court in the Litigation. Such election and e -filing shall be made on or before the expiration of fifteen (15) days following the date on which Defendant's Counsel receives the above -referenced written notice from the Settlement Administrator. A failure by Defendant to exercise its right to terminate within that deadline shall result in expiration of the right to terminate based upon the claim value represented by the Requests for Exclusion. The resulting consequences of a termination of the Settlement and this Settlement Agreement are described in other provisions of this Settlement Agreement. 39 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 40 of 140 9.3 The Effective Date shall be the second business day on which all of the following shall have occurred: a. Neither Defendant nor Plaintiff have terminated the Settlement and this Settlement Agreement and all such rights to terminate have expired; b. The Court has approved the Settlement Agreement as described herein and entered the Judgment, with the content attached hereto as Exhibit 2 without modification of any material terms and provisions therein (unless agreed to by both Defendant and Plaintiff); and C. Such Judgment has become Final and Non -Appealable as set forth in paragraph 1.15. 9.4 If either Party properly exercises a right to terminate this Settlement Agreement pursuant to its terms: a. this Settlement Agreement shall be canceled and terminated; b. the Effective Date shall not occur; C. Plaintiff and Defendant shall be restored to their respective positions, options and other rights and obligations as the same existed prior to entering into the Settlement Agreement; d. the terms and provisions of this Settlement Agreement, except as otherwise provided herein, shall have no further force and effect with respect to Plaintiff, Defendant, or any Class Member and shall not be used in the Litigation or in any other proceeding by anyone for any purpose except to enforce the surviving terms of the Settlement Agreement; e. any Judgment or other order, including any order certifying the Settlement Class for settlement purposes only, entered by the Court in accordance with the terms of this Settlement Agreement, shall be treated as vacated, nunc pro tunc; f. within ten (10) days after any such termination, (i) 100% of the Gross Settlement Fund, including any interest earned thereon, shall be refunded to Defendant, and (ii) any funds advanced by Defendant and Plaintiffs Counsel to the Settlement Administrator for the payment of Administration, Notice, and Distribution Costs but not yet spent shall be refunded to Defendant and to Plaintiffs Counsel as provided in section 1.1 above; and 40 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 41 of 140 g. the Litigation may proceed, and if it does proceed it shall do so as if this Settlement Agreement and any orders or motions entered to further the Settlement were never entered. 10. OBJECTIONS 10.1 The Notice of Settlement shall require that any objection to the Settlement, this Settlement Agreement, or to the application for Plaintiff's Attorneys' Fees, Litigation Expenses, and Case Contribution Award be in writing and comply with all the requirements set forth herein, by the Court in the Preliminary Approval Order, and in the Notice of Settlement. 10.2 If the Court determines that the Settlement, including the Allocation Methodology, the Initial Plan of Allocation, and the awards of Plaintiffs Attorneys' Fees, Case Contribution Award, and Litigation Expenses are fair, adequate and reasonable to the Settlement Class, Plaintiff and Plaintiffs Counsel shall represent the Settlement Class as a whole in all future proceedings in district court or on appeal, even if Class Members have objected to the Settlement and regardless whether those objectors are severed for purposes of appeal. 10.3 The Parties entered into the Settlement to provide certainty and finality to an ongoing dispute. Any Class Member wishing to remain a Class Member, but objecting to any part of the Settlement, can do so only as set forth herein and in the Notice of Settlement documents attached hereto as Exhibits 3 and 4. If, after hearing the objection(s), the Court determines that the Settlement, including but not limited to, the Allocation Methodology, the Initial Plan of Allocation, and the awards of Plaintiff's Attorneys' Fees, any Case Contribution Award, and reimbursement of Litigation Expenses are fair, adequate, and reasonable to the Class as a whole, then each objecting Class Member to preserve their appellate rights (prior to 41 r r 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 42 of 140 filing a Notice of Appeal) shall, either: (a) move for severance and separate appellate review of the individual objecting Class Member's portion of the Settlement, including their individual portion of the Initial Plan of Allocation, the award of Plaintiffs Attorneys' Fees, Case Contribution Award, and Litigation Expenses; provided, however, that in no event shall the Effective Date occur until any such appeal has become final and non -appealable as provided in Section 1.15 above; or (b) move for and post in the district court a cash appeal bond in an amount sufficient in the district court's discretion to reimburse and provide security for (i) the appellate fees of Plaintiffs Counsel and Defendant's Counsel; and (ii) the amount of lost interest to the non -objecting Class Members caused by any delay in distribution of the Net Settlement Fund that is caused by appellate review of the objection. 10.4 Only a Class Member shall have the right to object to the Settlement, the Settlement Agreement, or the application for attorneys' fees by Plaintiffs Counsel, Litigation Expenses, and Case Contribution Award. In order for an objection to be valid, the written objection must (1) be filed with the Court within thirty (30) days after Notice, unless such deadline is extended or altered by order of the Court; and (2) contain the following: (a) A heading referring to Cecil v. BP, Case No. 16 -CV -00410 -RAW and to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Oklahoma; (b) A statement as to whether the objector intends to appear at the Final Fairness Hearing, either in person or through counsel, and, if through counsel, identifying counsel by name, address, email address, and telephone number; (c) A detailed statement of the specific legal and factual basis for each objection; (d) A list of any witnesses the objector wishes to call at the Final Fairness Hearing, together with a brief summary of each witness's expected testimony (to the extent the objector desires to offer expert testimony and/or an expert report, any such evidence must fully comply with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, Federal Rules of Evidence, and the Local Rules of the Court); M 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 43 of 140 (e) A list of and copies of any exhibits the objector may seek to use at the Final Fairness Hearing; (f) A list of any legal authority the objector may present at the Final Fairness Hearing; (g) The objector's name, current address, current telephone number, and all royalty owner identification numbers with Defendant (or other operator); (h) The objector's signature executed before a Notary Public; (i) Identification of the objector's interest in wells where Defendant, including its predecessors or affiliates, is or was the operator or, as a non -operator, Defendant separately marketed gas (by well name, payee well number, and county in which the well is located) during the Class Period; and Q) If the objector is objecting to any portion of Plaintiffs and Plaintiffs Counsel's requested attorneys' fees, Litigation Expenses, or Case Contribution Award, the objector must specifically state the portion of attorneys' fees, Litigation Expenses, and/or Case Contribution Award (whichever applies to the objection) that the objector believes is fair and reasonable and the portion that is not. Any Class Member who fails to timely file and serve such written statement and provide the above -listed required information will not be permitted to present any objections at the Final Fairness Hearing and such failure will render any such attempted objection untimely and of no effect. All presentations of objections will be further limited by the information listed. A Class Member's mere compliance with the foregoing requirements does not in any way guarantee a Class Member the ability to present evidence or testimony at the Final Fairness Hearing. The decision whether to allow any testimony, argument, or evidence, as well as the scope and duration of any and all presentations of objections at the Final Fairness Hearing, will be in the sole discretion of the Court. 10.5 Defendant will not object to the fairness, adequacy, or reasonableness of the Settlement on appeal.

OTHER TERMS AND CONDITIONS 11.1 Defendant expressly denies all allegations of wrongdoing or liability with respect to the claims and allegations in the Litigation and denies that the Litigation could have been properly maintained as a class action for contested litigation (as opposed to for settlement) purposes. It is expressly agreed that neither this Settlement, the Settlement Agreement, any document referred to herein, nor any action taken to carry out the Settlement is, may be construed as, or may be used as, an admission by Defendant of any fault, wrongdoing, or liability whatsoever with respect to the claims and allegations in the Litigation.

Accordingly, Defendant agrees not to file a claim against Plaintiff or Plaintiffs Counsel based upon an assertion that the Litigation was brought by Plaintiff or Plaintiffs Counsel in bad faith or without a reasonable basis. Similarly, Plaintiff agrees not to file a claim against Defendant or Defendant's Counsel based upon an assertion that the Litigation was defended by Defendant or Defendant's Counsel in bad faith or without a reasonable basis.

On April 13, 2018, the Parties executed the i r 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 53 of 140 Settlement Agreement finalizing the terms of the proposed class action Settlement., The Settlement Agreement (including the exhibits thereto) sets forth the terms and conditions for the proposed Settlement of the Litigation. In accordance with the terms of the proposed Settlement Agreement, Plaintiff now presents the Settlement Agreement to the Court for preliminary approval under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23. After reviewing the pleadings and Plaintiffs Motion to Certify the Settlement Class, Preliminarily Approve Class Action Settlement, Approve Form and Manner of Notice, and Set Date for Final Fairness Hearing and Opening Brief in Support ("Motion for Preliminary Approval'), the Court has preliminarily considered the Settlement Agreement and the resulting Settlement to determine, among other things, whether the Settlement Agreement warrants the issuance of notice to the Settlement Class. Upon reviewing the Settlement Agreement and the Motion for Preliminary Approval, it is hereby ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED as follows: 1. For purposes of this Order, the Court adopts all defined terms as set forth in the Settlement Agreement unless otherwise defined herein. 2. The Court finds the Settlement Class should be certified for the purposes of proceeding forward with the Settlement. The Class meets all certification requirements of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23 for a settlement class. The certified Settlement Class is defined as follows: All persons or entities, except as specifically excluded below, who are or were royalty owners in wells located in Oklahoma which had production during any portion of the time period from January 1, 1985 through and including December 31, 2017, where Defendant BP America Production Company (including its affiliated predecessors and affiliated successors) is or was the 1 Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Order shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Settlement Agreement. 2 r1 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 54 of 140 operator (or a working interest owner) who marketed its share of gas as to production before January 1, 2018. The claims in this matter relate to royalty payments for gas and its constituents (such as residue gas, natural gas liquids, helium, nitrogen, or drip condensate). Excluded from the Class are: (1) United States agencies and Indian tribes and allottees; (2) the State of Oklahoma or any of its agencies or departments that own royalty interests; (3) Defendant, its affiliates, predecessors, and employees, officers, and directors; (4) the claims of royalty owners to the extent their claims are covered by prior settlement agreements, if any, releasing claims as to all or part of the Class Period, but only to the extent such prior settlements fully released the claims of such royalty owner(s) that would be released by this proposed class settlement as to the Class Wells, Released Parties, and Released Claims (the intent being that this Settlement be and remain effective as to any claims not already released by any such prior settlement agreements); (5) overriding royalty owners and others whose interest was carved out from the lessee's working interest; (6) officers of the Court in this case; (7) persons or entities that the Court determines Plaintiffs Counsel are prohibited from representing under Rule 1.7 of the Oklahoma Rules of Professional Conduct; (8) any publicly traded company and their affiliated entities that produces, gathers, processes or markets gas; and (9) royalty owners who are suing in their individual capacities only for the alleged underpayment or nonpayment of royalties in Watts, et al. v. BP America Production Company, Case No. C-2001- 73 in the District Court for Pittsburg County, Oklahoma .2 3. The Court finds the above -defined Settlement Class satisfies all prerequisites of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23 for certification of a settlement class: a. Numerosity. Plaintiff has demonstrated "[t]he class is so numerous that joinder of all members is impracticable" FED. R. Civ. P. 23(a)(1). The Tenth Circuit has not adopted a set number as presumptively sufficient to meet this burden, and there is "no set formula to determine if the class is so numerous that it should be so certified." Trevizo v. Adams, 455 F.3d 1155, 1162 (10th Cir. 2006). Whether a class satisfies the numerosity requirement is "a fact -specific inquiry" that district courts have "wide latitude" when determining. In re Cox Enters., Inc., No. 12 -ML -2048-C, 2014 WL 2 The Plaintiffs in the Watts v. Amoco case as of the date hereof are: Ronald W. McGee, as Trustee of Watts Ranch, LLC; Nora Ann Watts Enis; Judy R. Durant; Johnye L. Barnes; the Estate of Clara Joann Smith; and the C&J Wilcox Family Trust. 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 55 of 140 104964, at *3 (W.D. Okla. Jan. 9, 2014) (quoting Trevizo, 455 F.3d 1155, 1162 (10th Cir. 2006); Chieftain Royally Co. v. XTO Energy, Inc., No. CIV -11 -29 -KEW, 2018 WL 501656, at *2 (E.D. Okla. Jan. 18, 2018) (same). Here, the Settlement Class consists of thousands of royalty owners. Therefore, the Court finds the numerosity prerequisite is undoubtedly met. b. Commonality. Plaintiff has also demonstrated "[t]here are questions of law or fact common to the class" in relation to the proposed Settlement Class. FED. R. Civ. P. 23(a)(2). C. Typicality. Plaintiff has also shown "[t]he claims or defenses of the representative parties are typical of the claims or defenses of the class" in relation to the Settlement Class proposed under the Settlement Agreement. FED. R. Civ. P. 23(a)(3). d. Adequacy. Plaintiff and Plaintiffs Counsel have demonstrated "[t]he representative parties will fairly and adequately protect the interests of the class" for the purposes of the proposed Settlement Class. FED. R. Civ. P. 23(a)(4). In addition, because the Court finds Plaintiff, John Cecil, to be an adequate representative of the Settlement Class, and Plaintiffs Counsel The Lanier Law Firm (Reagan Bradford and Mark Lanier) and Rex A. Sharp, P.A. (Rex Sharp and Barbara Frankland) to be adequate Class Counsel under Rule 23(a)(4) and (g)(1-4) for the Settlement Class, the Court hereby appoints Plaintiff as Class Representative; and Plaintiffs Counsel The Lanier Law Firm (Reagan Bradford and Mark Lanier) and Rex A. Sharp, P.A. (Rex Sharp and Barbara Frankland) as Settlement Class Counsel for the Settlement Class. 4. The Court also finds the requirements of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23(b)(3) are met in the context of this Settlement Class: E 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 56 of 140 a. Predominance. Class Representative has shown "questions of law or fact common to the members of the [Settlement] Class predominate over any questions affecting only individual members." FED. R. Civ. P. 23(b)(3). b. Superiority. Class Representative has also established the resolution of the Litigation pursuant to the Settlement Agreement and settlement "is superior to other available methods for the fair and efficient adjudication of the controversy." FED. R. Civ. P. 23(b)(3). In sum, the Court finds the Settlement Class should be certified for the purposes of this proposed class settlement, as the Settlement Class meets all certification requirements of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23 for a settlement class. The Settlement Class is certified for settlement purposes only. In determining whether the requirements of Rule 23 have been satisfied for purposes of certifying the above class for settlement purposes, the Court has taken into account the fact of settlement and its impact upon the factors required for certification of the Settlement Class. Among other impacts of settlement, the Court need not inquire whether the case, if tried, would present intractable case management problems since the result of settlement is that there will be no trial. Because this case has been settled at this stage of the proceedings, the Court does not reach, and makes no ruling either way, as to the issue of whether the Settlement Class certified by agreement here for settlement purposes could have ever been certified in this case as a class for litigation purposes. 5. The Court preliminarily finds: (i) the proposed Settlement Agreement resulted from extensive amt's -length negotiations; (ii) the proposed Settlement Agreement was agreed to only after Class Counsel had conducted legal research, extensive discovery, and expert analysis regarding the strengths and weakness of Class Representative and the Class' claims; 5 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 57 of 140 (iii) Class Representative and Class Counsel have concluded that the proposed Settlement Agreement is fair, reasonable, and adequate; and (iv) the proposed Settlement is sufficiently fair, reasonable, and adequate to warrant sending notice of the proposed Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement to the Settlement Class. 6. Having considered the essential terms of the Settlement Agreement under the recognized standards for preliminary approval as set forth in the relevant jurisprudence, the Court preliminarily approves the Settlement Agreement, subject to the right of any member of the Settlement Class to challenge the fairness, reasonableness, and adequacy of the Settlement, Settlement Agreement, Allocation Methodology, or proposed Initial Plan of Allocation (or any other Plan of Allocation), and to show cause, if any exists, why a Final Judgment dismissing the Litigation based on the Settlement Agreement should not be ordered after adequate notice to the members of the Settlement Class has been given in conformity with this Order. As such, the Court finds that those Settlement Class Members whose claims would be settled, compromised, dismissed, and released pursuant to the Settlement Agreement should be given notice and an opportunity to be heard regarding final approval of the Settlement Agreement and other matters. 7. The Court further preliminarily approves the form and content of the proposed Notice of Settlement, attached to the Settlement Agreement as Exhibits 3 and 4, respectively. The Court finds Exhibit 3, the notice to be mailed, and Exhibit 4, the notice to be published, are the best notice practicable under the circumstances, constitute due and sufficient notice to all persons and entities entitled to receive such notice, and fully satisfy the requirements of applicable laws, including due process and Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23. The Court finds the form and content of the Notice of Settlement fairly and adequately, among other matters: (i) 31 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 58 of 140 summarizes the terms and effect of the Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement; (ii) notifies the Class that Plaintiff will seek Plaintiffs Attorneys' Fees, reimbursement of Litigation Expenses, and a Case Contribution Award for Class Representative's services; (iii) notifies the Class of the time and place of the Final Fairness Hearing as initially set by the Court; (iv) describes the procedure for requesting exclusion from the Settlement; and (v) describes the procedure for objecting to the Settlement or any part thereof. 8. The Court also preliminarily approves the proposed manner of communicating the Notice of Settlement to the Class, as set out below, and finds that it is the best notice practicable under the circumstances, constitutes due and sufficient notice to all persons and entities entitled to receive such notice, and fully satisfies applicable Constitutional standards and the requirements of other applicable laws, including due process and Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23: a. Within 45 days after entry of the Preliminary Approval Order, or as otherwise ordered by the Court, the Settlement Administrator will mail (or cause to be mailed) the Notice of Settlement, Exhibit 3, by first class mail to all Class Members who have been identified after reasonable efforts to do so. The Notice of Settlement will be mailed to Class Members using the royalty paydeck data described in paragraph 3.3 of the Settlement Agreement and any updated addresses found by the Settlement Administrator. For wells currently operated by Defendant, the Notice of Settlement will be mailed to Class Members using Defendant's December 2017 royalty paydeck data. For non -operated wells where Defendant separately marketed gas, the Settlement Administrator will mail the Notice of Settlement based on reasonably current royalty owner names and addresses which are reasonably available and produced from the well 7 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 59 of 140 operator. For wells that have been sold or are no longer producing, the Settlement Administrator will mail the Notice of Settlement to the last known royalty owners based on electronic data reasonably available to Defendant. The Settlement Administrator will also publish the summary form of the Notice of Settlement as described below. It is not reasonable or economically practical for the Parties to do more to determine the names and addresses of Class Members. b. Within 10 days after mailing of the first Notice of Settlement, the Settlement Administrator also shall publish (or cause to be published) the Notice of Settlement, Exhibit 4, once in each of the following newspapers: (1) The Oklahoman, a paper of general circulation in Oklahoma; (2) The Tulsa World, a paper of general circulation in Oklahoma; (3) The Muskogee Phoenix, a paper of local circulation; and (4) The McAlester News Capital & Democrat, a paper of local circulation. C. Within 10 days after mailing the first Notice of Settlement, Exhibit 3, and through the Final Fairness Hearing, the Settlement Administrator will also display (or cause to be displayed) on an Internet website dedicated to this Settlement the following documents, among other documents the Settlement Administrator may determine to post on the site: (1) the Notice of Settlement, (2) the last amended Complaint and Answer, (if there is one), (3) the Settlement Agreement, and (4) the Preliminary Approval Order. d. Defendant shall advance half of the Administration, Notice, and Distribution Costs up to $750,000.00 in accordance with the Settlement Agreement. Plaintiff's Counsel shall advance the other half (i.e., each shall advance up to $375,000.00). F 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 60 of 140 9. In keeping with the Court's approval of the form, content, and manner for the Notice of Settlement, any future communications concerning the Settlement of this Litigation shall be approved by the Court prior to their distribution to Class Members. This provision does not apply to Defendant's payment of royalty or other communications made in the usual and ordinary course of its business. 10. The Court appoints JND Legal Administration to act as Settlement Administrator and perform the associated responsibilities set forth in the Settlement Agreement. The Settlement Administrator will receive and process any Requests for Exclusion and, if the Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement are finally approved by the Court, will supervise and administer the Settlement in accordance with the Settlement Agreement, the Judgment, and the Court's Plan of Allocation order(s) authorizing distribution of the Net Settlement Fund to Class Members. The Parties and their counsel shall not be liable for any act or omission of the Settlement Administrator. 11. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23(e), a Final Fairness Hearing shall be held on , 2018 at M. in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Oklahoma, the Honorable Ronald A. White presiding, to, among other related matters: a. determine whether the Settlement Agreement should be approved by the Court as fair, reasonable, and adequate and in the best interests of the Class; b. determine whether the notice method utilized: (i) constituted the best practicable notice under the circumstances and applicable legal standards; (ii) constituted notice reasonably calculated, under the circumstances, to apprise Class Members of the pendency of the Litigation, the proposed Settlement Agreement and the E 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 61 of 140 Settlement contemplated therein, their right to exclude themselves from the Settlement, their right to object to the Settlement, and their right to appear at the Final Fairness Hearing; (iii) was reasonable and constituted due, adequate, and sufficient notice to all persons and entities entitled to such notice; and (iv) met applicable Constitutional standards and all applicable requirements of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and any other applicable law; C. determine whether the Judgment should be entered pursuant to the Settlement Agreement dismissing the Litigation against Defendant with prejudice and extinguishing, releasing, and barring all Released Claims against all Released Parties, and making the other findings and rulings provided therein, all in accordance with the Settlement Agreement; d. determine the proper method of allocation and distribution of the Net Settlement Fund among Class Members who are part of the Settlement Class; e. determine whether the applications for Plaintiffs Attorneys' Fees, for reimbursement of Litigation Expenses, and for a Case Contribution Award to Class Representative are fair and reasonable and should be approved; and f. rule on such other matters as the Court may deem appropriate. 12. The Court reserves the right to adjourn, continue to a future date, and/or reconvene the Final Fairness Hearing, or any aspect thereof (including the consideration of the application for Plaintiffs Attorneys' Fees and reimbursement of Litigation Expenses), without further notice to the Settlement Class of the revised hearing date. The Court may also approve the Settlement Agreement at or after the Final Fairness Hearing without notice to the Settlement Class of any revised hearing date. The Settlement Administrator will update the 10 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 62 of 140 website maintained pursuant to paragraph 8(c) of this Order to reflect the current information about the date and time for the Final Fairness Hearing, so that those persons interested in attending the Final Fairness Hearing may check the Settlement website for updated information regarding the date of the Final Fairness Hearing. 13. Class Members wishing to exclude themselves from the Settlement Class must submit to the Settlement Administrator a valid and timely Request for Exclusion. Requests for Exclusion must include: (i) the Class Member's name, address, telephone number, and notarized signature; (ii) a statement that the Class Member wishes to be excluded from the Settlement Class in Cecil v. BP, Case No. 16 -CV -00410 -RAW (E.D. Okla.); and (iii) a description of the Class Member's interest in any Oklahoma wells where Defendant, including its predecessors or affiliates, is or was the operator or, as a non -operator, Defendant separately marketed gas, including the name, well number, county in which the well is located, and the owner identification number. All Requests for Exclusion must be mailed to the Settlement Administrator by United States Certified Mail, return receipt requested, using the address for the Settlement Administrator shown in the Notice of Settlement. Each Request for Exclusion must be mailed in sufficient time that it is received by the Settlement Administrator by , 2018, unless such deadline is changed or altered by order of this Court. The Settlement Administrator is directed to in turn promptly email each Request for Exclusion it receives to Plaintiffs Counsel and Defendant's Counsel, using email addresses each set of counsel will provide to the Settlement Administrator. The Settlement Administrator is directed to file the Requests for Exclusion with the Court prior to the date of the Final Fairness Hearing. Requests for Exclusion may not be submitted through the website or by phone, facsimile, or email. A Request for Exclusion shall be effective after the Court approves its sufficiency in connection 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 63 of 140 with its final approval order and judgment. Any member of the Settlement Class that has not timely and properly filed a Request for Exclusion shall be a Class Member and shall be bound by the terms of the Settlement Agreement and the resulting Settlement if the Court finally approves the Settlement Agreement. 14. Any Class Member who wishes to object to the fairness, reasonableness, or adequacy of the Settlement Agreement, any term of the Settlement Agreement, the Allocation Methodology, the Initial Plan of Allocation, the request for Plaintiffs Attorneys' Fees and Litigation Expenses, or the proposed request for a Case Contribution Award to Class Representative may file an objection. An objector must file with the Court a written objection containing the following: (i) a heading referring to Cecil v. BP, Case No. 16 -CV -00410 -RAW, and to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Oklahoma; (ii) a statement as to whether the objector intends to appear at the Final Fairness Hearing, either in person or through counsel, and, if through counsel, counsel must be identified by name, address and telephone number; (iii) a detailed statement of the specific legal and factual basis for each objection; (iv) a list of any witnesses the objector may call at the Final Fairness Hearing, together with a brief summary of each witness's expected testimony (to the extent the objector desires to offer expert testimony and/or an expert report, any such evidence must fully comply with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, Federal Rules of Evidence, and the Local Rules of the Court); (v) a list of and copies of any exhibits the objector may seek to use at the Final Fairness Hearing; (vi) a list of any legal authority the objector may present at the Final Fairness Hearing; (vii) the objector's name, current address, telephone number, all royalty owner identification numbers with Defendant (or other operator), (viii) the objector's signature executed before a Notary Public; (ix) identification of the objector's interest in wells where 12 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 64 of 140 Defendant, including its predecessors or affiliates, is or was the operator or, as a non -operator, Defendant separately marketed gas (by well name, payee well number, and county in which the well is located) during the Class Period; and (x) if the objector is objecting to any portion of Plaintiffs Counsel's requested attorneys' fees, the requested Litigation Expenses, or the requested Case Contribution Award, the objector must specifically state the portion of Plaintiffs Attorneys' Fees, Litigation Expenses, and/or Case Contribution Award (whichever applies to the objection) that he/she believes is fair and reasonable and the portion that is not. Such written objections must be filed with the Court in the Litigation no later than 2018 at 5:00 p.m. Central time. Any Class Member who fails to timely file and serve such written statement and provide the required information will not be permitted to present any objections at the Final Fairness Hearing and such failure will render any such attempted objection untimely and of no effect. All presentations of objections will be further limited by the information listed. Either or both Party's Counsel may file a reply or response to any objections no later than , 2018. The procedures set forth in this paragraph do not supplant, but are in addition to, any procedures required by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. 15. Any objector who timely files and serves a valid written objection in accordance with the above paragraph may also appear at the Final Fairness Hearing, either in person or through qualified counsel retained at the objector's expense. Objectors or their attorneys intending to present any objection at the Final Fairness Hearing must comply with the Local Rules of this Court in addition to the requirements set forth above. 16. If the Settlement is not granted final approval by the Court, is terminated in accordance with the terms of the Settlement Agreement, or a Judgment approving it is entered 13 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 65 of 140 that does not become Final and Non -Appealable for any reason whatsoever, the Settlement Agreement, Settlement, and any actions taken or to be taken by the Court in connection therewith (including this Order and any Judgment entered herein), shall be terminated and become void and of no further force and effect as described in the Settlement Agreement (including, but not limited to paragraph 9.4 of the Settlement Agreement). Any obligations or provisions relating to the refund of Plaintiffs Attorneys' Fees, Litigation Expenses, the payment of Administration, Notice, and Distribution Costs already incurred, and any other obligation or provision in the Settlement Agreement that expressly pertains to the termination of the Settlement or events to occur after the termination, shall survive termination of the Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement. 17. All proceedings in the Litigation, other than such proceedings as may be necessary to carry out the terms and conditions of the Settlement Agreement, are hereby stayed and suspended until further order of this Court. 18. Pending final approval of the Settlement Agreement, the Court hereby enjoins and restrains all members of the Settlement Class from continuing, maintaining, filing, commencing, prosecuting, supporting, intervening in, or participating as plaintiffs, claimants, or class members in, any other action or proceeding in any jurisdiction against the Released Parties, or any of them, that is based on, relating to, or arising out of the claims and causes of action, or the facts and circumstances at issue in this Litigation and/or the Released Claims, unless and until (i) the Court enters a final order herein approving the proposed Settlement and entering the Judgment, (ii) the Court enters a final order herein denying approval of the proposed Settlement, or (iii) the Settlement Agreement is otherwise terminated. 14 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 66 of 140 19. Entering into or carrying out the Settlement Agreement, and any negotiations or proceedings related thereto, is not, and shall not be construed as, or deemed to be evidence of, an admission or concession by any of the Parties to the Settlement Agreement and shall not be offered or received in evidence in any action or proceeding by or against any Party in any court, administrative agency, or other tribunal for any purpose whatsoever other than to enforce the provisions of the Settlement Agreement or the provisions of any related agreement, order, judgment or release. This Order shall not be construed or used as an admission, concession, or declaration by or against the Defendant and any other Released Party of any fault, wrongdoing, breach, or liability, or the propriety of maintaining this Litigation as a contested class action. Defendant specifically denies any such fault, wrongdoing, breach, liability, and allegations regarding certification for litigation (as opposed to settlement) purposes. This Order shall not be construed or used as an admission, concession, or declaration by or against Class Representative or the members of the putative Settlement Class that their claims lack merit or that the relief requested in the Litigation is inappropriate, improper, or unavailable. This Order shall not be construed or used as an admission, concession, declaration, or waiver by any party of any arguments, defenses, or claims he, she, or it may have with respect to the Litigation in the event the Settlement is terminated. Moreover, the Settlement Agreement and any proceedings taken pursuant thereto are for settlement purposes only. 20. The Court may, for good cause shown, extend any of the deadlines set forth in this Order without further written notice to the members of the Settlement Class. 15 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 67 of 140 IT IS SO ORDERED this day of April , 2018.

Civil Action No. 16 -CV -00410 -RAW [PROPOSED] ORDER APPROVING CLASS ACTION SETTLEMENT AND FINAL JUDGMENT This is a putative class action lawsuit brought by Plaintiff John Cecil, on behalf of himself and as the proposed representative of a class of royalty owners, against Defendant BP America Production Company (and its affiliates and predecessors), for the alleged non- payment and/or underpayment of royalties on gas and its constituents (including helium, residue gas, natural gas liquids, nitrogen and condensate). On April 13, 2018, Plaintiff and Defendant executed a Settlement Agreement describing the terms of a resulting class Settlement. On April _, 2018, the Court preliminarily approved the Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement and issued an Order Granting Preliminary Approval of Class Action Settlement, Certifying the Class for Settlement Purposes, Approving Form and Manner of 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 71 of 140 Notice, and Setting Date for Final Fairness Hearing (the "Preliminary Approval Order"). In the Preliminary Approval Order, the Court, inter alfa: a. certified the class for settlement purposes, finding that all requirements of Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 23(a), 23(b)(3), and 23(e) applicable to a settlement class have been satisfied, for settlement purposes only, with respect to the proposed Settlement Class; b. appointed Plaintiff, John Cecil, as the class representative ("Class Representative") and appointed the following law firms as Plaintiffs Counsel: (a) The Lanier Law Firm; and, (b) Rex A. Sharp, P.A.; C. preliminarily found: (i) the proposed Settlement Agreement resulted from extensive arm's-length negotiations and mediation; (ii) the proposed Settlement Agreement was agreed to only after the record was sufficiently developed and complete to allow Plaintiffs Counsel an adequate opportunity to conduct legal research, fact discovery, expert analysis and to otherwise evaluate relevant factual and legal issues regarding the strengths and weaknesses of Class Representative's and the proposed Settlement Class' claims; (iii) Class Representative and Plaintiffs Counsel have concluded that the proposed Settlement Agreement is fair, reasonable, and adequate; and (iv) the proposed Settlement Agreement is sufficiently fair, reasonable, and adequate to warrant sending notice of the proposed Settlement Agreement and Settlement to the proposed Settlement Class; d. preliminarily approved the Settlement Agreement as fair, reasonable, and adequate and in the best interest of the Settlement Class; 2 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 72 of 140 e. preliminarily approved the form and manner of the proposed Notice of Settlement to be communicated to the proposed Settlement Class, finding specifically that such Notice of Settlement among other information: (i) described the terms and effect of the proposed Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement; (ii) notified the Settlement Class that Plaintiff will seek Plaintiffs Attorneys' fees, Litigation Expenses, and a Case Contribution Award for Class Representative's services; (iii) notified the Settlement Class of the time and place of the Final Fairness Hearing; (iv) described the procedure for requesting exclusion from the proposed Settlement; and (v) described the procedure for objecting to the proposed Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement or any part thereof; f. instructed the Settlement Administrator to disseminate the approved Notice of Settlement by direct mail to potential members of the proposed Settlement Class and by publication and to display documents related to the proposed Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement on an Internet website in accordance with the Settlement Agreement and in the manner approved by the Court, with Administration, Notice, and Distribution Costs of up to $750,000.00 to be advanced half by Defendant and half by Plaintiff's Counsel in accordance with the Settlement Agreement; g. provided for the appointment of a Settlement Administrator; h. set the date and time for the Final Fairness Hearing as , 2018 at tit. in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Oklahoma; and i. set out the procedures and deadlines by which members of the proposed Settlement Class could properly request exclusion from the Settlement Class and resulting Settlement or object to the same or any part thereof. 3 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on/04t13/18 Page 73 of 140 After the Court issued the Preliminary Approval Order, due and adequate notice by means of the Notice of Settlement was given to the proposed Settlement Class, notifying them of the proposed Settlement Agreement and the upcoming Final Fairness Hearing. On 2018, in accordance with the Preliminary Approval Order and the Notice, the Court conducted a Final Fairness Hearing to: a. determine whether the proposed Settlement Agreement should be approved by the Court as fair, reasonable, and adequate and in the best interests of the Settlement Class, including the entry of the Judgment attached as Exhibit 2 to the proposed Settlement Agreement inter alfa, dismissing the Litigation against Defendant with prejudice and extinguishing, releasing, and barring all Released Claims against all Released Parties in accordance with the Settlement Agreement; b. determine whether the notice method utilized by the Settlement Administrator: (i) constituted the best notice that is practicable under the circumstances; (ii) constituted notice reasonably calculated under the circumstances to apprise potential Class Members of the pendency of the Litigation, the proposed Settlement Agreement, their right to exclude themselves from the proposed resulting Settlement, their right to object to the Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement or any part thereof, and their right to appear at the Final Fairness Hearing; (iii) was reasonable and constituted due, adequate, and sufficient notice to all persons and entities entitled to such notice; and (iv) met all applicable requirements of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the state and federal Constitutions and any other applicable law; 0 r 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 74 of 140 C. determine whether to approve the Allocation Methodology, the Initial Plan of Allocation and distribution of the Net Settlement Fund to Class Members; d. determine whether the applications for Plaintiffs attorneys' fees, reimbursement for Litigation Expenses, and Case Contribution Award to Class Representative are fair and reasonable and should be approved ;2 and e. rule on such other matters as the Court deems appropriate. The Court, having reviewed the Settlement and all related pleadings and filings, and having heard the evidence and argument presented at the Final Fairness Hearing, now FINDS, ORDERS, and ADJUDGES as follows: The Court, for purposes of this Order Approving Class Action Settlement and Final Judgment (the "Judgment"), adopts all defined terms as set forth in the Settlement Agreement and incorporates them as if fully set forth herein. 2. The Court has jurisdiction over the subject matter of this Litigation and all matters relating to the Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement, as well as personal jurisdiction over Defendant and Class Members. 3. The Settlement Class, which was certified in the Court's Preliminary Approval Order, is defined in the Settlement Agreement as: All persons or entities, except as specifically excluded below, who are or were royalty owners in wells located in Oklahoma which had production during any portion of the time period from January 1, 1985 through and including December 31, 2017, where Defendant BP America Production Company (including its affiliated predecessors and affiliated successors) is or was the operator (or a working interest owner) who marketed its share of gas as to 1 The Court will issue a separate order pertaining to the allocation and distribution of the Net Settlement Proceeds among Class Members (the "Plan of Allocation Order"), z The Court will issue separate orders pertaining to Plaintiffs Counsel's request for attorneys' fees and reimbursement of Litigation Expenses and Class Representative's request for a Case Contribution Award. 5 1 ( -- 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 75 of 140 production before January 1, 2018. The claims in this matter relate to royalty payments for gas and its constituents (such as residue gas, natural gas liquids, helium, nitrogen, or drip condensate). Excluded from the Class are: (1) United States agencies and Indian tribes and allottees; (2) the State of Oklahoma or any of its agencies or departments that own royalty interests; (3) Defendant, its affiliates, predecessors, and employees, officers, and directors; (4) the claims of royalty owners to the extent their claims are covered by prior settlement agreements, if any, releasing claims as to all or part of the Class Period, but only to the extent such prior settlements fully released the claims of such royalty owner(s) that would be released by this proposed class settlement as to the Class Wells, Released Parties, and Released Claims (the intent being that this Settlement be and remain effective as to any claims not already released by any such prior settlement agreements); (5) overriding royalty owners and others whose interest was carved out from the lessee's working interest; (6) officers of the Court in this case; (7) persons or entities that the Court determines Plaintiffs Counsel are prohibited from representing under Rule 1.7 of the Oklahoma Rules of Professional Conduct; (8) any publicly traded company and their affiliated entities that produces, gathers, processes or markets gas; and (9) royalty owners who are suing in their individual capacities only for the alleged underpayment or nonpayment of royalties in Watts, et al. v. BP America Production Company, Case No. C-2001- 73 in the District Court for Pittsburg County, Oklahoma.3 The Court finds that the above -defined Settlement Class has been properly certified for the purposes of the Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement. The Court finds that the persons and entities identified in the attached Exhibit 1 have filed timely and valid Requests for Exclusion and are hereby excluded from the foregoing Settlement Class, will not participate in or be bound by the Settlement. 4. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Judgment shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Settlement Agreement filed with the Court on April 13, 2018 (Dkt. #_), including but not limited to "Released Claims", "Released Parties", "Releasing 3 The Plaintiffs in the Watts v. Amoco case as of the date hereof are: Ronald W. McGee, as Trustee of Watts Ranch, LLC; Nora Ann Watts Enis; Judy R. Durant; Johnye L. Bames; the Estate of Clara Joann Smith; and the C&J Wilcox Family Trust. 1 j 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 76 of 140 Parties", and "Class Period". For reference purposes, the Settlement Agreement is attached hereto as Appendix A. 5. At the Final Fairness Hearing on , 2018, the Court fulfilled its duty to independently evaluate the fairness, reasonableness, and adequacy of the Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement and the Notice of Settlement provided to the Settlement Class, considering not only the pleadings and arguments of Class Representative and Defendant and their respective Counsel, but also the concerns of any objectors and the interests of all absent Class Members. 6. The Court further finds that due and proper notice, by means of the Notice of Settlement, was given to the Settlement Class in conformity with the Settlement Agreement and Preliminary Approval Order. The form, content, and method of communicating the Notice of Settlement, together with the class settlement website referred to therein: (i) constituted the best notice practicable under the circumstances; (ii) constituted notice reasonably calculated, under the circumstances, to apprise potential Class Members of the pendency of the Litigation, the proposed Settlement Agreement, their right to exclude themselves from the proposed Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement, their right to object to the same or any part thereof, and their right to appear at the Final Fairness Hearing; (iii) was reasonable and constituted due, adequate, and sufficient notice to all persons and entities entitled to such notice; and (iv) met all applicable requirements of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the Due Process Clause of the United States Constitution, the Due Process protections of the State of Oklahoma, and any other applicable law. Therefore, the Court approves the form, manner, and content of the Notice of Settlement used by the Parties. The Court further finds that all 7 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 77 of 140 Class Members have been afforded a reasonable opportunity to request exclusion from the Settlement Class or to object to the proposed Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement. 7. The Court hereby affirms its determinations in the Preliminary Approval Order certifying, for the purposes of the Settlement only, the Litigation as a class action pursuant to Rule 23 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, including that: the members of the Settlement Class are so numerous that joinder of all Settlement Class Members in the class action is impracticable; there are questions of law and fact common to the Settlement Class which predominate over any individual questions; the claims of Plaintiff are typical of the claims of the Settlement Class; Plaintiff and his counsel have fairly and adequately represented and protected the interests of the Class Members; and, after considering the interests of the Class Members in individually controlling the prosecution of separate actions, the extent and nature of litigation already commenced by members of the Settlement Class, the desirability or undesirability of continuing the litigation of these claims in this forum, and the difficulties likely to be encountered in the management of the class action—a class action is superior to other available methods for the fair and efficient adjudication of the controversy. Pursuant to and in accordance with Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23, the Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement, including, without limitation, the consideration paid by Defendant, the covenants not to sue, the releases, and the dismissal with prejudice of the Released Claims against the Released Parties as set forth in the Settlement Agreement, is approved as fair, reasonable and adequate and in the best interests of the Settlement Class. The Settlement Agreement was entered into between the Parties at arm's-length and in good faith after substantial negotiations and mediation, and was free of collusion. The Settlement Agreement fairly reflects the complexity of the claims, the duration of the Litigation, the extent of 8 (. 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 78 of 140 discovery, and the balance between the benefits the Settlement Agreement provides to Class Members and the risk, cost, and uncertainty associated with further litigation and trial. Serious questions of law and fact remain contested between experienced counsel and the Parties. The Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement provide a means of gaining immediate valuable and reasonable compensation and foreclosing the prospect of uncertain results that could occur after many more months or years of additional discovery and litigation. The considered judgment of the Parties, aided by experienced legal counsel, supports the approval of the Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement. The Parties and the Settlement Administrator are hereby authorized and directed to comply with and to cause the consummation of the proposed Settlement in accordance with the Settlement Agreement. 8. By agreeing to settle the Litigation, Defendant does not admit, and instead specifically denies, that the Litigation could have otherwise been properly maintained as a class action (as opposed to a settlement class), and specifically denies any and all liability and wrongdoing to the Class Representative and to the Settlement Class. 9. The Court finds that on 2018, Defendant caused notice of the Settlement to be served on the appropriate state official for each state in which a Class Member resides, and the appropriate federal official, as required by and in conformance with the form and content requirements of 28 U.S.C. § 1715. In connection therewith, the Court has determined that the appropriate state official for each state in which a Class Member resides was and is the State Attorney General for each such state, and the appropriate federal official was and is the Attorney General of the United States. Further, the Court finds it was not feasible for Defendant to include on each such notice the names of each of the Class Members who reside in each state and the estimated proportionate share of the Net Settlement Fund of 6 r � - 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 79 of 140 each such Class Member to the entire Settlement as referenced in 28 U.S.C. § 1715; therefore, each notice included a reasonable estimate of the number of Class Members residing in each state and the estimated proportionate share of such Class Members. The Court finds that all requirements of 28 U.S.C. § 1715 have been met and complied with and, as a consequence, no Class Member may refuse to comply with or choose not to be bound by the Settlement and this Court's Orders in furtherance thereof, including this Judgment. 10. The Litigation and all claims included therein, and all the Released Claims, are dismissed with prejudice as to the Released Parties. The Court orders that, upon the Effective Date, the Settlement Agreement shall be the exclusive remedy for any and all Released Claims of Class Members. The Releasing Parties are hereby deemed to have finally, fully, and forever conclusively released, relinquished, and discharged all of the Released Claims against the Released Parties to the fullest extent permitted by law. The Court thus hereby permanently bars and enjoins the Releasing Parties, and each of them (regardless whether or not any such person or party shares in the Settlement Fund), and all persons acting on behalf of, or in concert or participation with such Releasing Parties, from: filing, commencing, asserting, prosecuting, maintaining, pursuing, continuing, intervening in, or participating in, or receiving any benefits from, any lawsuit (including without limitation a putative class action), arbitration, or administrative, regulatory or other proceeding in any jurisdiction based upon or asserting any of the Released Claims. The Released Parties are discharged and/or released from all claims for contribution that have been or may be brought by or on behalf of any persons relating to the Settlement of the Released Claims. The releases and prohibitions of this paragraph apply equally to any claim that relates to the subject matter of the Released Claims except as expressly excluded therefrom. The Court's approval of the Settlement Agreement and entry of 10 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 80 of 140 judgment herein shall have the effect of barring each of the Releasing Parties from asserting any claim from which that party would be barred by a judgment resolving the certified claims herein had such claims been brought by such party individually. 11. No party to the Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement will bear any other party's litigation costs, costs of court, or attorneys' fees. The Court orders that Defendant and Plaintiff's Counsel will be reimbursed for costs advanced under Paragraph 1.1 of the Settlement Agreement out of the Gross Settlement Fund within 10 days following the Effective Date. Any Residual Unclaimed Funds remaining in the account after the Settlement Administrator has completed distributions to Class Members shall be distributed pursuant to paragraph 6.18 of the Settlement Agreement. 12. The Court also approves the efforts and activities of the Settlement Administrator, IND Legal Administration, in assisting with certain aspects of the administration of the Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement, and directs it to continue to assist Class Representative in completing the administration and distribution of the same in accordance with the Settlement Agreement, this Judgment, any Plan of Allocation approved by the Court, and the Court's other orders. 13. Nothing in this Judgment shall bar any action or claim by Class Representative or Defendant to enforce or effectuate the terms of the Settlement Agreement or this Judgment. 14. If it has not already occurred, the Settlement Administrator is directed to refund to Defendant the amount attributable to potential Class Members who timely and properly submitted a Request for Exclusion or were otherwise excluded from the Settlement Class by order of the Court. The timing of such refund and how the amount of such refund shall be calculated is set forth in paragraph 6.4 of the Settlement Agreement. 1 � 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 81 of 140 15. This Judgment, and the Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement (including any provisions contained in or exhibits attached to the Settlement Agreement)—and any negotiations, statements, or proceedings in connection therewith, or any action undertaken pursuant thereto—shall not be admissible in any action or proceeding for any reason, other than an action to enforce the terms of this Judgment or the Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement (including, but not limited to, defending or bringing an action based on the releases provided for herein). The Judgment and the Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement are not and shall not be deemed, described, or construed to be or offered or received as evidence of a presumption, concession, declaration, or admission by any person or entity of the truth of any allegation made in the Litigation; the validity or invalidity of any claim or defense that was, could have been, or might be asserted in the Litigation; the amount of damages, if any, that would have been recoverable in the Litigation; or any liability, negligence, fault, or wrongdoing of any person or entity in the Litigation. 16. As separately set forth in detail in the Court's Plan of Allocation Order(s), the Allocation Methodology, the Initial Plan of Allocation, and distribution of the Net Settlement Fund among Class Members are approved as fair, reasonable and adequate, and Plaintiff's Counsel and the Settlement Administrator are directed to administer the Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement in accordance with the Plan of Allocation(s) entered by the Court. 17. The Court finds that Class Representative, Defendant, and their respective Counsel have complied with the requirements of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure as to all proceedings and filings in this Litigation. The Court further finds that Class Representative and Plaintiffs Counsel adequately represented the Settlement Class in entering into the Settlement Agreement and implementing the resulting Settlement. 12 r 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 82 of 140 18. Neither Defendant nor Defendant's Counsel has any liability or responsibility to Plaintiff, Plaintiff's Counsel, or the Settlement Class with respect to the Gross Settlement Fund or its administration, including but not limited to any distributions made by the Settlement Administrator. Except as described in paragraph 6.21 of the Settlement Agreement, no Class Member shall have any claim against Plaintiff's Counsel, the Settlement Administrator, or any of their respective designees or agents based on loss of any portion of the distributions made substantially in accordance with the Settlement Agreement, the Court's Plan of Allocation Order(s), or other orders of the Court. 19. Any Class Member who receives a Distribution Check that he/she is not legally entitled to receive is hereby ordered to either (1) pay the appropriate portion(s) of the Distribution Check to the person(s) legally entitled to receive such portion(s) or (2) return the Distribution Check uncashed to the Settlement Administrator. 20. All matters regarding the administration of the Gross Settlement Fund or taxation of funds distributed from the Net Settlement Fund shall be handled in accordance with the Settlement Agreement. 21. Any order approving or modifying any Plan of Allocation Order, the application by Plaintiff's Counsel for an award of attorneys' fees or reimbursement of Litigation Expenses, or the request of Class Representative for a Case Contribution Award shall be handled in accordance with the Settlement Agreement and the documents referenced therein (to the extent the Settlement Agreement and documents referenced therein address such an order). 22. Without affecting the finality of this Judgment in any way, the Court (along with any appellate court with power to review the Court's orders and rulings in the Litigation) reserves exclusive and continuing jurisdiction over the Litigation, Class Representative, Class 13 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 83 of 140 Members, Defendant, and the other Released Parties for the purposes of: (i) supervising and/or determining the fairness and reasonableness of the implementation, enforcement, construction, and interpretation of the Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement, any Plan of Allocation order entered by the Court, and this Judgment; (ii) hearing and determining an application for an award of Plaintiffs Attorneys' Fees, and Litigation Expenses, and/or a Case Contribution Award for Class Representative, if such determinations were not made at the Final Fairness Hearing; (iii) supervising the distribution of funds; (iv) resolving any dispute regarding a Party's right to terminate the Settlement pursuant to the Settlement Agreement; (v) all matters concerning the administration and enforcement of the Settlement, including the entry of injunctive or other relief to enforce, implement, administer, construe and/or interpret the Settlement Agreement; and (vi) exercising jurisdiction over any challenge to the Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement on any basis whatsoever. 23. If for any reason whatsoever this Judgment does not become Final and Non - Appealable in accordance with the definition of that phrase in the Settlement Agreement, for example—but without limitation—because the Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement is terminated as the result of a successful appeal of this Judgment, then this Judgment and all orders previously entered in connection with the Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement shall be rendered null and void and shall be vacated to the extent provided by and in accordance with the Settlement Agreement. The provisions of the Settlement Agreement relating to termination of the Settlement Agreement shall be complied with including: (1) the refund to Defendant of all amounts in the Settlement Administrator's accounts or in the Escrow Account after any disbursement to Plaintiffs Counsel pursuant to (2) below; (2) the refund to Plaintiffs Counsel of that portion, if any, of the $375,000 that Plaintiffs Counsel contributed 14 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 84 of 140 toward Administration, Notice, and Distribution Costs that has not previously been expended by the Settlement Administrator. 24. All Released Claims, on behalf of Plaintiff and the Class Members, are hereby DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE to the refiling of the same or any portion thereof against the Released Parties. The Court retains jurisdiction as set forth in ¶22 to perform any of the functions listed therein, including, without limitation, to administer the Settlement distribution process as contemplated in the Court's Plan of Allocation order(s), administer other aspects of the Settlement as described in the Settlement Agreement, and issue any additional orders pertaining to Plaintiffs Counsel's request for attorneys' fees and reimbursement of reasonable Litigation Expenses and Class Representative's request for a Case Contribution Award. Notwithstanding the Court's jurisdiction to issue additional orders in this Litigation, this Judgment fully disposes of all claims against Defendant, and is therefore a final appealable judgment. Regardless, there is no reason for delay in the entry of this Judgment, and the Court hereby expressly directs the Clerk of the Court to enter this Judgment as a final order and final judgment in this Litigation. 25.

I. General Information About the Litigation The Litigation seeks damages for Defendant's alleged underpayment of royalties to the royalty owners in the Class described above on Oklahoma wells where Defendant (or a predecessor or affiliate of Defendant) is or was the operator or, as a non -operator, Defendant (or a predecessor or affiliate of Defendant) separately marketed gas. Plaintiff John Cecil ("Plaintiff') alleges that BP America breached an implied covenant to market, breached the underlying leases, breached an alleged fiduciary duty, violated RICO, and committed fraud with respect to royalty payments for gas and its constituents (including helium, residue gas, natural gas liquids, nitrogen and condensate). These claims are premised on a variety of allegations, including but not limited to the allegations that Defendant (or a predecessor or affiliate of Defendant): (1) made various deductions and reductions from royalty payments that should not have been made by deducting direct and indirect fees for marketing, gathering, compression, dehydration, processing, treatment, and other similar services before the gas and its constituents (including helium, residue gas, natural gas liquids, nitrogen, and drip condensate) was a "marketable product"; (2) did not pay royalty, or underpaid royalty, on gas that was used off the lease premises or in the manufacture of products; (3) did not pay royalty, or underpaid royalty, on drip condensate that dropped out of the gas stream; (4) failed to provide to royalty payees all of the information required by statute; and, (5) made affiliate sales. Defendant expressly denies all allegations of wrongdoing or liability with respect to the claims and allegations in the Litigation. The Court has made no determination with respect to any of the parties' claims or defenses. A more complete description of the Litigation, its status, and the rulings made in the Litigation are available in the pleadings and other papers maintained by the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Oklahoma, located at 101 North 5th Street, Muskogee, Oklahoma 74401, in the file for Case No. 16 - CV -00410 -RAW. II. The Settlement, Attorneys' Fees, Litigation Expenses, Case Contribution Award And The Settlement Allocation And Distribution To The Class On April_, 2018, the Court preliminarily approved a Settlement in the Litigation between Plaintiff, on behalf of himself and the Settlement Class, and Defendant. This approval and this Notice are not an expression of opinion by the Court as to the merits of any of the claims or defenses asserted by any of the parties to the Litigation, or of whether the Court will ultimately approve the Settlement Agreement. In settlement of all claims alleged in the Litigation, Defendant has agreed to pay One Hundred Forty - Seven Million Dollars ($147,000,000.00) in cash ("Gross Settlement Fund"), plus Defendant implemented new procedures and policies for calculating and paying royalty with respect to production on Class Wells (the "Past Benefits"), the value of which will be estimated by Plaintiff's expert. Defendant has also agreed to maintain these procedures and policies with respect to production on Class Wells for at least the next 7 years, which Plaintiff estimates has a net present value of no less than $35,000,000 (the "Future Benefits"). In exchange for the payment noted above and other consideration outlined in the Settlement Agreement, the Settlement Class shall release the Released Claims (as defined in the Settlement Agreement available for review and download at www.cecil-bp.com) against the Released Parties (as defined in the Settlement Agreement). The $147,000,000.00 cash payment, plus the Past and Future Benefits is referred to as the "Gross r 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 90 of 140 Settlement Value." The Gross Settlement Fund, less reasonable Plaintiffs Attorneys' Fees, Litigation Expenses, any Case Contribution Award, and other costs approved by the Court (the "Net Settlement Fund"), will be distributed to Class Members. Counsel for Plaintiff ("Plaintiffs Counsel") intends to seek an award of attorneys' fees of not more than 40% of the Gross Settlement Value. Plaintiffs Counsel, Reagan Bradford and Mark Lanier of The Lanier Law Firm and Rex Sharp and Barbara Frankland of Rex A. Sharp, P.A., have been litigating this case without any payment whatsoever, advancing hundreds of thousands of dollars in expenses. At the Final Fairness Hearing, Plaintiffs Counsel will also seek reimbursement of the Litigation Expenses incurred in connection with the prosecution of this Litigation and that will be incurred through final distribution of the Settlement, which amount will not exceed $900,000.00, to be paid out of the Gross Settlement Fund. In addition, Plaintiff intends to seek a Case Contribution Award for its representation of the Class, which amount will not exceed $350,000.00, to compensate Plaintiff for his time, expense, risk and burden as serving as Class Representative. The Court must approve the Allocation Methodology and Initial Plan of Allocation, which describe how the Settlement Administrator will allocate the Net Settlement Fund to each Class Member. A general description of that process is: Plaintiffs Counsel will first allocate the Net Settlement Fund proportionately to each Class We113 with due regard for: (i) the production BP America marketed on behalf of itself and/or others; (ii) the amount and date of claimed royalty underpayment to Class Members; (iii) the time period when the claimed underpayment occurred; and (iv) the distribution of small amounts that would exceed the cost of the distribution. Thereafter, subject to approval by the Court, the Settlement Administrator will allocate the Net Settlement Fund for each Class Well among all Class Members in that Class Well based on their royalty decimal interest in that Class Well using the royalty payment information described in paragraph 3.3 of the Settlement Agreement. The distribution to current Class Members described above is based on the following assumptions: (a) that very few sales of royalty interests have occurred during the specified time period; (b) that where sales did occur, the parties intended for the buyer to receive payment for past claims; and (c) that where royalty interests passed through inheritance, devise, or interfamily transfers, it was the intent that the heir, devisee or transferee receive the right to receive payment for claims based on past production. The Net Settlement Fund will be distributed by the Settlement Administrator within 7 months after the Effective Date of the Settlement. The Effective Date requires the exhaustion of any appeals, which may take a year or more after the entry of Judgment. The Settlement may be terminated on several grounds, including if the Court does not approve or materially modifies the terms of the Settlement. If the Settlement is terminated, the Litigation will proceed as if the Settlement had not been reached. This Notice does not and cannot set out all the terms of the Settlement Agreement, which is available for review and download at www.cecil-bp.com. This website will eventually include this Class Notice, a preliminary Class Well list, the Initial Plan of Allocation, and the Plaintiffs Counsel's application for Attorneys' Fees, Litigation Expenses, and Case Contribution Award. You may also receive information about the progress of the Settlement by visiting the website at www.cecil-bp.com, or by contacting the Settlement Administrator at the address set forth above. III.

See attached well list. BP America recently settled a royalty owner class action lawsuit involving the royalty owners in these wells. Consequently, the settlement administrator needs your most recent division of interest deck for each well showing the API number, well or lease name, annual or monthly volume, royalty owner names, addresses, decimal interest, and tax identification number. If any of the wells have been sold or plugged, please provide your most recent information. Please provide the information in Excel format and by email to [insert email address]. Your company should also receive a subpoena from plaintiff's counsel for this information. If I do not hear favorably from you in the next 5 days, plaintiffs' attorneys will be following up on the issued third party subpoenas for the information. However, BP America would like to save the time and trouble of that process. BP America would appreciate your company's expedient response. Thank you for your assistance with this matter and please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Steve DeGiusti Sr. VP and General Counsel 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 50 Filed in ED/OK on 04/03/17 Page 1 of 27 IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF OKLAHOMA JOHN CECIL, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, Plaintiff, VS. BP AMERICA PRODUCTION COMPANY (f/k/a Amoco Production Company) (including BP Amoco Corporation, ARCO, BP Exploration, Inc., BP Corporation North America, Inc., and BP Energy Company), Defendant. Civil Action No. 16 -CV -00410 -RAW PLAINTIFF'S FIRST AMENDED CLASS ACTION COMPLAINT John Cecil ("Plaintiff'), on behalf of himself and the Class of all other persons similarly situated, files this First Amended Class Action Complaint against BP America Production Company fWa Amoco Production Company (`BP"), and alleges and states as follows: SUMMARY OF ACTION Plaintiff and the Class bring claims against BP concerning BP's actual, knowing and willful underpayment or non-payment of royalties on natural gas and/or constituents of the gas stream produced from wells through improper accounting methods (such as not paying on the starting price for gas products but instead taking improper deductions) and by failing to account for and pay royalties, all as more fully described below. 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 50 Filed in ED/OK on 04/03/17 Page 2 of 27 JURISDICTION AND VENUE 2. This Court has original jurisdiction over the claims asserted in this complaint pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1332(d) because this is a class action where the amount in controversy exceeds the sum of $5,000,000 and because Plaintiff and BP are citizens of different states. 3. Venue is proper in this District pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1391 because BP transacts business and is found within this District, and/or has agents within this District, and a substantial part of the events giving rise to the claims asserted herein occurred in this District. PARTIES 4. Plaintiff is a citizen and resident of Oklahoma. Plaintiff owns a royalty interest in in a BP operated well that produces gas. 5. Defendant BP is a corporation organized under Delaware law with its principal place of business in Texas. BP has already been served and appeared in this action. Trying to determine the various BP, Amoco, and ARCO affiliates that BP is responsible for without discovery is difficult, so Plaintiff reserves the right to amend further should the need arise to correctly identify each BP affiliate that during the Class Period was a lessee, working interest owner that marketed its own gas through a BP affiliate and directly paid royalties to the royalty owners, operator, or payor of royalty on Oklahoma wells. It is believed that BP is responsible back to 1993 for Amoco Production Co. wells since BP acquired Amoco in the late 1990s, and for Atlantic Richfield Co. (ARCO) wells since BP acquired ARCO in 2000. Thereafter, BP has a number of different entities that appear to be involved set forth below. 6. BP Exploration, Inc. was a lessee, working interest owner that marketed its own gas through a BP affiliate and directly paid royalties to the royalty owners, operator, and/or payor of royalty on Oklahoma wells that produced gas during the Class Period. The Oklahoma 2 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 50 Filed in ED/OK on 04/03/17 Page 3 of 27 Corporation Commission database shows BP Exploration, Inc, operates or has operated 61 wells in Oklahoma. The Oklahoma Secretary of State business entities database shows BP Exploration, Inc. was formed December 3, 1979 as a Delaware corporation and that its status was "Withdrawn," but the effective date of the withdrawal is not shown. It is unclear whether BP Exploration, Inc. is or was an operating entity or just a tradename, but out of an abundance of caution, Plaintiff includes BP Exploration, Inc. as a defendant affiliated predecessor entity to defendant BP. Service may be had on its registered agent: The Oklahoma Secretary of State, 2300 N. Lincoln, Room 101, Oklahoma City, OK 73105-4897 if counsel for BP will not accept service. 7. BP Corporation North America, Inc. is believed to have been a lessee, working interest owner that marketed its own gas through a BP affiliate and directly paid royalties to the royalty owners, operator, and/or payor of royalty on Oklahoma wells that produced gas during the Class Period. BP Corporation North America, Inc. is an Indiana corporation that was formed in 2001 upon the name change of BP Amoco Corporation. The Oklahoma Secretary of State business entities database shows its current status as "ousted" for failure to file its annual certificate with the Oklahoma Secretary of State. Service may be had on its registered agent: The Prentice -Hall Corporation System, Oklahoma, Inc., 115 S.W. 89th St., Oklahoma City, OK 73139-8511. 8. From approximately 1999 to 2001, after Amoco Production Company was acquired by BP, its name was BP Amoco Corporation which is believed to have been a lessee, working interest owner that marketed its own gas through a BP affiliate and directly paid royalties to the royalty owners, operator, and/or payor of royalty on Oklahoma wells that produced gas during the Class Period. In 2001, BP Amoco Corporation changed its name to BP 3 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 50 Filed in ED/OK on 04/03/17 Page 4 of 27 Corporation North America, Inc. Since BP is a mere continuation of BP Amoco Corporation, BP Amoco Corporation has been served with process when BP was served with process at its registered agent The Corporation Company, 1833 S. Morgan Road, Oklahoma City, OK 73128. 9. Prior to 1998, Amoco Production Company is believed to have been a lessee, working interest owner that marketed its own gas through an Amoco affiliate (Amoco Energy Trading Corporation) and directly paid royalties to the royalty owners, operator, and/or payor of royalty on Oklahoma wells that produced gas during the Class Period. In 1998 or 1999, BP acquired Amoco Corporation (including Amoco Production Company) to form BP Amoco Corporation.' Accordingly, Amoco Corporation, Amoco Production Company, and BP Amoco Corporation are predecessors of BP. Since BP is a mere continuation of Amoco Corporation and Amoco Production Company, the Amoco entities were served with process when BP was served with process at its registered agent, The Corporation Company, 1833 S. Morgan Road, Oklahoma City, OK 73128. 10. BP, including its affiliated predecessor entities, Amoco Production Company, Amoco Corporation, ARCO, BP Exploration, Inc., BP Corporation North America, Inc., BP Energy Company, and BP Amoco Corporation, is in the business of producing and marketing gas and constituent products from the wells in which Class members hold royalty interests. 11. The typical royalty payment is between 1/8th and 3/16th of a well's revenue. 12. BP and its affiliated predecessors, successors, and all those to whose prior leasehold interests they have succeeded and for whom they are legally liable whether by merger, assignment, or otherwise shall herein collectively be known as "Defendant" or `BP". http://www.bp.com/en/global/corporate/about-bp/our-history/late-century.html 4 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 50 Filed in ED/OK on 04/03/17 Page 5 of 27 CLASS ACTION ALLEGATIONS 13. Plaintiff brings this action on behalf of himself and as a class action pursuant to Rule 23(a) and (b)(3) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure on behalf of the following class (the "Class"): All persons who are royalty owners in Oklahoma wells where BP America Production Company (f/k/a Amoco Production Company) (including its affiliated predecessors and affiliated successors) is or was the operator (or a working interest owner who marketed its share of gas and directly paid royalties to the royalty owners) from January 1, 1993 to the date Class Notice is given. The Class claims relate to royalty payments for gas and its constituents (such as residue gas, natural gas liquids, helium, nitrogen, or drip condensate). Excluded from the Class are: (1) agencies, departments or instrumentalities of the United States of America, including but not limited to the U.S. Department of the Interior (the United States, Indian tribes, and Indian allottees); (2) the State of Oklahoma or any of its agencies or departments that own royalty interests; (3) BP, its affiliates, predecessors, and employees, officers, and directors; (4) any publicly traded company or its affiliated entity that produces, gathers, processes, or markets gas; (5) the claims of royalty owners to the extent covered by arbitration clauses or prior settlement agreements, if any, still in effect at the time suit was filed herein; (6) overriding royalty owners and others whose interest was carved out from the lessee's interest; (7) royalty owners who have already filed and still have pending lawsuits for underpayment of royalties against BP at the time suit is filed herein; (8) royalty owners only to the extent they take gas in-kind, if any; and, (8) royalty owners only to the extent receiving "Blanchard" payments. 14. The members of the Class are so numerous and geographically dispersed that joinder of all members is impracticable. 15. BP operates or has operated thousands of Class Wells that produce gas. BP holds a working interest in these Wells, with at least one, and usually multiple, royalty owners for each well. 16. BP has within its possession or control records that identify all persons to whom it (including affiliated predecessors and those for whom it is legally responsible) has paid royalties from Class Wells during the Class Period. 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 50 Filed in ED/OK on 04/03/17 Page 6 of 27 17. The questions of fact or law common to Plaintiff and the Class include, without limitation, one or more of the following: a. Whether the Plaintiff and members of the Class are beneficiaries of the implied Marketable Condition Rule (MCR) which requires BP to sever the gas from the ground and to prepare the gas for market at BP's sole expense? i. If so, whether: 1) the Midstream Costs of gathering, compression, dehydration, treatment, and processing (GCDTP) are costs associated with preparing the gas for market such that none of them should have been deducted from royalties but all of them were; or 2) whether the market for gas occurs before GCDTP are incurred such that the Class's claim is only for excessive deductions of Midstream Costs? ii. If not, whether the Class members were party to a lease that expressly allows deduction of all of the GCDTP Midstream Costs ("Express Deduction Lease" or "ED Lease"), such that these Class members have a claim only for excessive deductions of Midstream Costs, and if so, whether the Midstream Costs actually deducted were excessive in amount? b. Whether BP paid royalty to Plaintiff and members of the Class for all valuable constituents coming from their wells and which inured to BP's benefit either: 1) through credit toward the Midstream Costs; or 2) by contractual consideration in- kind to a midstream company (such as drip condensate, helium, liquefied nitrogen, some percentage of residue, some percentage of fractionated NGLs, plant fuel, or FL&U)? c. Whether BP (including any of its affiliates) paid royalty to Plaintiff and members of the Class based on a starting price below what BP or its affiliates received in arm's-length sales transactions? d. Can class -wide damages be calculated for Plaintiff's theories of liability? 18. Plaintiff is typical of other class members because BP pays royalty to Plaintiff and other Class members using a common method. BP pays royalty based on the net revenue BP receives under its gas contracts which terms royalty owners do not know or approve. The contracts are for services necessary to place the gas and its constituent parts into marketable condition so they can be sold into recognized, active, and competitive commercial markets. 11 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 50 Filed in ED/OK on 04/03/17 Page 7 of 27 19. Plaintiff will fairly and adequately protect the interests of the members of the Class. Plaintiff is a royalty owner to whom BP pays royalty. Plaintiff understands his duties as a Class representative. Plaintiff has retained counsel competent and experienced in class action and royalty owner litigation. 20. This action is properly maintainable as a class action. Common questions of law or fact exist as to all members of the Class and those common questions predominate over any questions solely affecting individual members of such Class. See ¶12 above. There is no need for individual Class members to testify in order to establish BP's liability to or damages sustained by Plaintiff and members of the Class. 21. Class action treatment is appropriate in this matter and is superior to the alternative of numerous individual lawsuits by members of the Class. Class action treatment will allow a large number of similarly situated individuals to prosecute their common claims in a single forum, simultaneously, efficiently, and without duplication of time, expense and effort on the part of those individuals, witnesses, the courts, and/or BP. Likewise, class action treatment will avoid the possibility of inconsistent and/or varying results in this matter arising out of the same facts. No difficulties are likely to be encountered in the management of this class action that would preclude its maintenance as a class action and no superior alternative forum exists for the fair and efficient adjudication of the claims of all Class members. 22. Class action treatment in this matter is further superior to the alternative of numerous individual lawsuits by all or some members of the Class. Joinder of all Class members would be either highly impracticable or impossible. And the amounts at stake for individual Class members, while significant in the aggregate, would be insufficient to enable them to retain 7 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 50 Filed in ED/OK on 04/u3/17 Page 8 of 27 competent legal counsel to pursue claims individually. In the absence of a class action in this matter, BP will likely retain the benefit of its wrongdoing. GAS INDUSTRY BACKGROUND 23. The members of the Class own royalty interests in wells that produce gas and constituents that are transformed into marketable products and sold into the established commercial markets for those products. 24. BP's method for calculating royalty to the members of the Class is subject to uniform accounting procedures and implied marketable product law. 25. Oklahoma law requires the lessee to bear all of the costs of placing gas and its constituents into "Marketable Condition" products. 26. Gas and its constituent parts are marketable products only when they are in the physical condition to be bought and sold in a commercial marketplace. 27. Only after a given product is marketable does a royalty owner have to pay its proportionate share of the reasonable costs to get a higher enhanced value or price for that particular product. The Lessor -Lessee Relationship 28. The lessor owns minerals, including oil and gas; the lessee has the money, labor, and know-how to extract, condition, and market those minerals. The lessor and lessee enter into a lease that allows the lessee to take the minerals from the lessor's land. The usual revenue split from a well was 1/8th to the lessor (royalty owner) and 7/8ths to the lessee. As the risk of finding oil and gas has diminished over time, due to the prevalence of wells delineating the field, better seismic technology, and increased efficiency of drilling rigs, royalty owners on more recent leases have received 3/16th or even 1/4th of the revenue. 8 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 50 Filed in ED/OK on 04/03/17 Page 9 of 27 29. But, the oil and gas companies have used undisclosed internal accounting practices to try to keep for themselves as much of the well revenue as possible. These accounting practices are at the heart of every oil and gas royalty case. 30. Rather than adopting transparency in its royalty calculation formula, BP, like most lessees, has guarded its production and accounting processes as confidential or proprietary, thereby, depriving the royalty owners of information necessary to understand how BP calculates royalties. Consequently, the royalty owner is unaware of the lessee's actual practices, thereby enabling the lessee to breach the oil and gas lease without accountability. 31. If and when one or more of the royalty owners learn of the "breach", the royalty owner has only three (3) — all poor — options: (1) confront the lessee and maybe get paid while the lessee continues to retain improperly garnered gas revenues from thousands of other unknowing royalty owners; (2) do nothing since the "breach" only results in a modest yearly loss and the expense of individual litigation would exceed the recovery, if any; or (3) file a class action lawsuit which will persist for years and probably will not recover the full loss. In short, if the lessee breaches, it may never be held accountable; and if a royalty owner complains, the lessee will still come out ahead because an individual case is not worth much and a class action rarely requires 100% repayment to royalty owners plus -prejudgment interest, plus attorneys' fees and expenses. The class action is the best of the three options, hence this suit. Residue Gas, Helium, Nitrogen and Natural Gas Liquids Production 32. The gas is gathered from each well, dehydrated and compressed, through underground gathering lines crossing many miles of land to processing plants where the raw gas is transformed into two primary products --methane and fractionated natural gas liquids W 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 50 Filed in ED/OK on 04/O3/17 Page 10 of 27 ("NGLs"). Once homogenized as fungible products, the residue gas and NGLs are sold in the commercial market. Wellhead (Basic Separation and Gas Measurement) 33. The diagram below illustrates the gas conditioning process. meter oil, gas, and water emulsion line (flow line) -, well head gas line ElfQ oil, gas clean and water oil emulsion heaters Ilne line saltwater line to disposal recirculating oil line See http://www.kgs.ku.edu/Publications/Oil/primerl3.html 34. Wells produce oil, gas, and a host of other products, such as water, helium, nitrogen, etc., all mixed together in the gas stream.2 After the stream comes out of the ground, it enters the free water knockout (a/k/a three-phase separator) which separates the products by gravity, water at the bottom, oil in the middle, and gas going out the top. Due to the low 2 Hydrocarbons can vary in chemical makeup (from simple methane to complex octane) and in form (from pure gaseous state to liquid condensate). The non -hydrocarbon makeup of the well - stream that includes natural gas can also include gases such as helium, sulfur, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen. This mixture of many gaseous elements and substances is often referred to as the "gas stream" or just "gas". 10 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 50 Filed in ED/OK on 04/03/17 Page 11 of 27 technology, the separator is not expensive (the "separation cost'). The gaseous mixture (with helium, nitrogen, NGLs, and other gaseous substances) passes from the separator into the gas line.3 The remaining fluid goes through the heater -treater where heat, gravity segregation, chemical additives and electric current break down the mixture more clearly in oil and water. The heater -treater is installed, maintained and takes fuel to operate (the "heater -treater cost'). The water is drained off and sent for salt water disposal. The oil that is separated at the wellhead is collected in a tank, usually trucked out and sold (the payment of oil royalties is not at issue in this lawsuit). 35. Since production over time depletes the pressure of a well, on rare occasion, on - lease compressors are installed to suction gas out of the well or to move the gaseous mixture down the gathering lines. But when they are installed, their use requires fuel (the "on -lease compression" or "vacuum compression" cost). 36. The gaseous mixture produced from a single well cannot be processed economically, so the mixtures from many wells are "gathered" together through gathering lines and delivered to a processing plant for transformation into marketable products and sale into commercial markets. This results in a gathering cost (G). The below diagram provides an overview of the process. BP does not improperly deduct from royalty any of the costs before the gathering line inlet. 3 A minute portion of this raw gas may be used on a few leased lands to heat the farm house pursuant to a free gas clause in the lease. Although title transfers to the gas, it is not a sale. Some producers sell less than 3% of the raw gas to a local irrigator during the summer months for agricultural purposes, but this is not the economic market for which the wells are drilled. 11 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 50 Filed in ED/OK on 04/03/17 Page 12 of 27 Midstream Service Costs (GCDTP) wnuwd, r wenlwez ..

As the gaseous mixture from each well enters the gathering line, it flows into a meter run where the mixture is measured for both volume (in Mcf) and quality (Btu content) (combined, "gas measurement," in MMBtu). The meter run must be constantly maintained to record accurate measurements. 38. Gathering pipelines are usually made of metal that could be corroded by water vapor (and other corrosive gases) in the gaseous mixture, so a glycol dehydrator is used to remove the water vapor. This results in a dehydration cost (D). 39. Gas will not move downstream from the well unless it is pressurized sufficiently to overcome the in-line back pressure and friction in the gathering line. So large gas compressors 12 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 50 Filed in ED/OK on 04/03/17 Page 13 of 27 are installed to move the gas from the gathering line inlet to the processing plant. These compressors are expensive and require fuel to operate. This results in a compression cost (C). 40. The gathering pipelines themselves cost money to lay and maintain, though most have been in place for decades. Gas condensate (gas condensed into liquid as it cools and is pressurized) ("Drip Condensate") is collected at points along the gathering lines as a result of cleaning or "pigging the line" and is captured for fractionation and sale later. Generally lessees pay no royalty on the revenue generated from the sale of the drip condensate. 41. Finally, gathering lines leak, especially as they age, resulting in lost and unaccounted for gas ("L&U"). Lessees pay no royalty on the volume of L&U. Natural Gas Processing 42. Once a sufficient amount of the gas mixture from multiple wells (and often from multiple gathering systems) is gathered, the mixture enters the inlet of the processing plant where the mixture will be transformed into methane and mixed NGLs. 43. Lessees, such as BP, use gas processing plants that either they or a third -party own. Usually an unrelated third party owns the processing plant but the plant may also be owned in whole or in part by a lessee. 44. The plant removes impurities that remain in the mixture, such as carbon dioxide, nitrogen, or sulfur, before the mixture can be processed. This incurs a "treatment cost" (T)). 45. The final cost, processing (P), involves services to transform the gas mixture into methane gas (also called "residue gas"), NGLs raw make, and in the Panhandle of Oklahoma, crude helium. 13 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 50 Filed in ED/OK on 04/03/17 Page 14 of 27 a. Methane must meet the quality standards for long-haul pipeline transmission set by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC') which is called "pipeline quality gas". b. The raw make NGLs are used as a feedstock in the petrochemical and oil refining industries; they are a more valuable commodity than methane. To separate the NGLs from the gaseous mixture, they are cooled to temperatures lower than minus 150°F (the "Cryogenic or cooling process"). The NGLs move into a liquids pipeline and processed by a fractionator into their marketable products: ethane; propane; butanes; and pentanes plus. In the gas contracts, this process incurs a "T&F" or "fractionation" fee, even though lessees sometimes give away the NGLs in keep -whole agreements as consideration for other services the midstream company provides. C. Helium is processed into Grade A helium at new processing plants or into crude helium (contaminated with nitrogen) at older plants which is then processed into Grade A helium at a nearby helium processor (often a few hundred feet away). 46. This total processing system involves expensive equipment and requires fuel to operate (collectively, the "processing charge" and/or "plant fuel"). Lessees do not pay royalty on plant fuel, even though it comes from Class Wells. 47. At the tailgate of the processing plant, at least two products emerge: (1) residue gas (or methane gas); and, (2) NGLs (usually a mixture of NGLs, known as "raw make" or "Y" grade). In helium rich production areas, Grade A or crude helium, along with liquefied nitrogen also emerges. But none of these products are commercially marketable at that point. 14 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 50 Filed in ED/OK on 04/03/17 Page 15 of 27 Marketable Condition for the Products 48. Methane Gas. Methane gas (or residue gas) is commercial quality (a/k/a "pipeline quality") at the tailgate of the processing plant only after it is further pressurized to enter the transmission line by a booster compressor (the "booster compression" cost). 49. NGLs. The raw mixture of NGLs at the tailgate of the processing plant is not commercially marketable. It must be fractionated into commercially marketable products — ethane, propane, butane, isobutene, natural gasoline, etc.4 In computing royalty for NGLs, BP improperly deducts processing fees and/or other costs (such as transportation and fractionation, T&F) needed to reach commercially marketable fractionated NGLs. 50. Drip Condensate. Drip Condensate is recovered on the gathering lines and at the inlet to the processing plant, and is essentially in marketable condition when collected. 51. Other Products. In some areas of the country (Hugoton Field and Wyoming), helium is produced in commercial quantities and recovered, along with liquefied nitrogen. Other areas of the country produce sulfur and carbon dioxide in commercial quantities. When such products are available in commercial quantities, processing and treatment plants recover these valuable constituents but lessees pay little or nothing to the royalty owners. Royalty owners should be paid for the gas and all constituents taken. Sale of Products 52. To turn the marketable products into money, the producer sells them (or contracts to have them sold) in the commercial market place in an arm's length transaction. No money exchanges hands until the residue gas is sold at the Index pool, the fractionated NGLs at OPIS, and any other marketable products at the prices established by their respective commercial ° See http://nel.conocophillips.com/news/about.html. 15 i 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 50 Filed in ED/OK on 04/03/17 Page 16 of 27 markets. Lessees attempt to obscure this fact with self-serving language in gas marketing contracts about title transfer or even by creating a wholly owned affiliate to manufacture a fictitious "sale" before the gas reaches commercial quality for sale. 53. The "starting price" for gas products is always achieved, as it must be, at a commercial market price. All of the gas contracts express the commercial market price in one of two ways: (a) a market price, called an "Index" price for residue gas and "OPIS" price for fractionated NGLs, or (b) a "weighted average sales price" or "WASP" achieved at the same residue Index market or OPIS market. The difference stems from BP's market power to, over time, obtain above "Index" or "OPIS" price in its arm's length sale. Whichever starting price is used in an arm's length transaction, that price is the highest and best reasonable price for the valuable gas products. If Other Products are also produced, they are and must be also priced in a commercial market. 54. Affiliate gas contracts are not arm's length sales in a commercial market. Instead, the later arm's-length sale by the affiliate in the commercial market is the true sale that should be used as the "starting price" for marketable condition gas products. a. Some lessees contract with affiliated gathering companies or other affiliated gas service providers before the products (residue gas and/or NGLs) are in Marketable Condition in an effort to: (1) artificially, and improperly, create a commercial market where none truly exists so they may justify deducting costs from royalty, or not paying for all of the gas or constituent products produced; (2) charge "marketing fees" to royalty owners even though the lessee is already obligated under the lease to prepare the gas for market and market the gas and 16 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 50 Filed in ED/OK on 04/03/17 Page 17 of 27 constituent products; and/or (3) pay on the lower lessee/affiliate sale price and not the higher affiliate/third party price. b. WASP involves a pool of sales transactions to third parties (and/or affiliates) and combines the prices paid by those third parties (and/or affiliates) to arrive at a "weighted average sales price." Lessees can manipulate this process by using lower lessee/affiliate sales prices for part of the pool price, rather than all third party arm's length sale prices. 55. Fictitious "sales" are created by lessees in an effort to pass off a non-commercial market sale as if it should be the starting point for royalty payments. But none of those efforts comport with economic reality or are in good faith with respect to royalty owners. For instance: a. Anything of value can be sold at any place and in any condition. i. Gas and other minerals can and are routinely sold in the ground, but they are not in marketable condition. ii. Gas could be sold at the bottom of the hole when it is severed from the surrounding rock and enters the downhole pipe. Although a contract driller might be willing to accept some percentage of the future sale of oil or gas in the real marketplace as compensation for his drilling services, that agreement does not make the transaction a real market sale. iii. Gas could be sold "at the wellhead" when the gas is severed from the surface. Although a contract operator might be willing to accept some percentage of the future sale of oil or gas in the real marketplace as compensation for his well operating services, that transaction does not make it a real market sale. 17 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 50 Filed in ED/OK on 04/O3/17 Page 18 of 27 iv. Gas also could be sold at the gathering line inlet when the gas enters the gathering line and changes custody. Although a contract gatherer might be willing to accept some percentage of the future sale of gas in the real marketplace as compensation for his gathering services, that transaction does not make it a real market sale. V. Gas also could be sold at the processing plant inlet when the gas changes custody to the processing plant. Although a contract processor might be willing to accept some percentage of the future sale of gas in the real marketplace as compensation for his processing services, that transaction does not make it a real market sale. The lessee could simply pay for all of these services with monetary fees or in-kind contributions of all or part of the valuable constituents. But the structure of the transaction does not change the fact that the services are necessary to prepare the gas and valuable constituents for the first real sale into the commercial market — Index or OPIS. b. Nor does a contract saying title transfers at a custody transfer point create a sale of marketable products in a real commercial market. Some gas contracts with Midstream companies that provide GCDTP services purport to do that, but other parts of the gas contract demonstrate that it is a legal sleight of hand as (i) the risk of loss that usually passes with a true title transfer and market sale does not happen; (ii) the cost of future downstream services that usually passes with a true title transfer and market sale does not happen; (iii) the starting price which would occur with a true title transfer and market sale does not happen. Indeed, the paper 18 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 50 Filed in ED/OK on 04/03/17 Page 19 of 27 title transfer is unnecessary to receiving the Midstream services as the gas could receive the exact same Midstream service without the paper title transfer. c. All of the gas contracts implicitly recognize this paper title transfer fiction, as the starting price for gas products always is at the Index and OPIS market pool as previously described. d. Midstream services providers are not buyers and resellers of raw gas. They are service providers that convert raw gas into pipeline quality gas so it can enter the Index or OPIS market pools. Different Ways BP Underpays Royalty Owners 56. The extraordinarily large dollars at stake and the one-sided nature of the gas lessor -lessee relationship are constant temptations to lessees to wrongfully retain gas revenues. All payment formulas, affiliate and non -affiliate contractual relationships, and all calculations are exclusively in the control of lessees, and they involve undisclosed accounting and operational practices. As a result, there are many ways royalty owners are underpaid on their royalty interests, and they never know it. The common thread through all of these schemes is that they are typically buried in the internal lessee accounting systems or royalty -payment formulas. 57. BP represents the royalty calculation on the form of a monthly check stub it sends each royalty owner. The check stub shows each royalty owner's interest and taxes (which are not in dispute here), and volume, price, deductions, and value, all of which are disputed. 58. BP underpays royalty to Plaintiff and other Class Members in one or more of the following ways: a. Residue Gas. The starting price paid for residue gas should be an arm's length, third party market sales price for residue gas at pipeline quality. All of BP's gas 19 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 50 Filed in ED/OK on 04/03/17 Page 20 of 27 contracts will show this to be true. But, instead of paying on that gross competitive price, BP pays on a net price after directly taking or allowing midstream companies to indirectly take Midstream Services deductions (both monetary fees and in-kind volumetric deductions). b. NGLs. The starting price paid for fractionated NGLs should be an arm's length, third party market sales price for ethane, propane, normal butane, iso -butane, and pentane plus (a/k/a natural gasoline). All of BP's gas contracts will show this to be true. But instead of paying on that gross competitive price, BP pays royalty (i) for only some of the NGLs produced (some is lost and unaccounted for in the gathering process, lost in plant fuel or compression fuel); (ii) after deducting processing fees and expenses (often keeping in-kind a Percentage of the Proceeds ("POP") of the fractionated NGLs as payment for the processing services); and, (iii) after reducing payment by T&F. c. Drip Condensate. Plaintiff and Class Members' wells produce heavy hydrocarbons that condense in the pipeline. BP (or a third -party on behalf of BP (gatherers and/or processors)) recovers those hydrocarbons for sale. BP fails to pay any royalty for that Drip Condensate. d. Other Products. Helium is contained in the well -stream produced from Plaintiffs and many Class Members' wells, but BP: (i) fails to pay royalty for all of the helium produced (some is lost and unaccounted for in the gathering and processing process); (ii) deducts processing fees and costs even though the helium is not yet in commercial grade; and (iii) pays at a lower than commercial Grade A FA I 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 50 Filed in ED/OK on 04/03/17 Page 21 of 27 price. Often times, BP does not pay any royalty at all for Helium, for liquid nitrogen, or other products taken from Plaintiff's and the Class Members' wells. 59. BP underpays all other Class Members, from whom BP is legally entitled to deduct post -production Midstream Services Costs, by taking excessive deductions under Midstream Services Contracts that allow excessive monopoly charges for GCDTP services. ACTUAL KNOWING AND WILLFUL UNDERPAYMENT OR NON-PAYMENT OF ROYALTIES 60. The underpayment and non-payment of royalties are done with BP's actual and willful knowledge and intent. 61. In fact, BP has settled similar claims on a non -class basis in Oklahoma, yet only doing so for those that asserted their claims individually. This allows BP to quiet the "squeaky wheels" while continuing its improper practices as to all others and reaping millions of dollars in improper proceeds. 62. In addition, BP is well familiar with the fact that virtually all other producers in Oklahoma have resolved the same claims for hundreds of millions, if not billions, of dollars. 63. Nevertheless, BP continues its improper payment practices with actual and willful knowledge and intent. COUNT I — BREACH OF LEASE 64. Plaintiff and the Class incorporate by reference the allegations in all other paragraphs of this Complaint as if fully set forth in this section. 65. Plaintiff and the other Class Members entered into written, fully executed, oil and gas leases with BP, and those leases include implied covenants requiring BP to prepare the gas and its constituent parts for market at BP's sole cost. The leases also place upon BP the 21 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 50 Filed in ED/OK on 04/03/17 Page 22 of 27 obligation to properly account for and pay royalty interests to royalty owners under the mutual benefit rule and good faith and fair dealing. 66. At all material times, Plaintiff and the Class have performed their terms and obligations under the leases. 67. BP breached the leases, including the implied covenants, by its actions and/or inactions in underpaying royalty or not paying royalty on all products sold from the gas stream. 68. As a result of BP's breaches, Plaintiff and the Class have been damaged through underpayment of the actual amounts due. COUNT II — BREACH OF FIDUCIARY DUTY 69. Plaintiff and the Class incorporate by reference the allegations in all other paragraphs of this Complaint as if fully set forth in this section. 70. The Class members have interests in Oklahoma wells that have united under 52 Okla. Stat. §§ 287.1-287.15 and/or 52 Okla. Stat. § 87.1. 71. A fiduciary duty was created and vested when BP (or its predecessor in interest) requested and received unitization orders from the Oklahoma Corporation Commission pursuant to those statutes. 72. BP is the unit operator by appointment from the Oklahoma Corporation Commission for Class members. 73. BP breached its fiduciary duty to the Class members by failing to properly report, account for, and distribute gas proceeds to the Class members for their proportionate royalty share of gas production. 74. As a direct and proximate result of BP's conduct in breaching its fiduciary duties, Class members are entitled to recover actual damages. 22 I 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 50 Filed in ED/OK on 04/03/17 Page 23 of 27 75. Plaintiff and the Class are also entitled to and seek pre judgment interest, post- judgment interest, attorneys' fees from the common fund, expenses, and costs. COUNTS III IV AND V — FRAUD, DECEIT, AND CONSTRUCTIVE FRAUD 76. Plaintiff and the Class incorporate by reference the allegations in all other paragraphs of this Complaint as if fully set forth in this section. 77. BP made uniform misrepresentations and/or omissions on the monthly check stubs sent to Class members reflecting the wrong volume and price, and not detailing all of the monetary fee and in-kind volumetric deductions. 78. As set forth above, BP made a material representation that was false and/or omitted to state one or more material facts needed to make what was stated not misleading. BP knew when the material representations were made on the check stubs that the statements were false or misleading and/or at least made recklessly without any knowledge of their truth, or made the statements with the intent that Plaintiff and the Class would rely on them. Plaintiff and the Class Members did rely on and/or are legally presumed to have relied upon these uniform written representations as being truthful and accurate, when they were not. Plaintiff and the Class Members suffered injury and were underpaid as a result. 79. BP also concealed or failed to disclose facts about the price, volume, value, various products produced, and deductions, which BP had a duty to disclose to avoid presenting half-truths or misrepresentations. 80. BP undertook the duty to properly account by making the statements in check stubs on a monthly basis to royalty owners. By speaking on the issue, BP had a duty to make full and fair disclosure of all relevant facts. This is especially so because BP had superior and/or specialized knowledge and/or access to information when compared to royalty owners. 23 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 50 Filed in ED/OK on 04/03/17 Page 24 of 27 81. BP knew that its representations or omissions on the monthly check stubs were at least ambiguous and created a false impression of the actual facts to the royalty owners. 82. BP knew the facts were peculiarly within BP's knowledge and that the Class was not in a position to discover the facts pertaining to the proper volume, values, and constituents coming from their wells. Accordingly, having spoken on the subject matter, BP had a duty to make full and fair disclosure of all material facts such that its statements were not misleading, but did not. 83. BP was deceitful by suggesting, as a fact, that the volume, price, value and other statements were as set forth on the monthly check stubs when those statements were not true. BP knew the statements were not true, had no reasonable grounds for believing they were true, or gave only such information as was likely to mislead for want of the communication of the non - disclosed facts. 84. The misrepresentations and omissions were intentionally made. They were intended to suggest that the price was a third party commercial price without hidden deductions, the volumes were accurately measured without volumetric deductions, and that deductions would be shown on the check stub when in fact they were not. 85. By creating and mailing misleading check stubs to the Class, BP has fraudulently and deceitfully misled the Class into believing that the Class Members had been paid on the full value of the production from their wells. 86. BP acted intentionally or recklessly in disregard of the rights of Plaintiff and the Class Members, on a uniform basis, by not properly paying royalty owners, by deceiving them with check stubs that were misleading, and by failing to correct BP's royalty payment practices after being sued multiple times for underpaying royalties such that punitive damages should be 24 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 50 Filed in ED/OK on 04/03/17 Page 25 of 27 awarded and that BP acted intentionally and with malice toward Plaintiff and the Class Members subjecting BP to punitive damages. 87. As a direct and proximate result of BP's deceit and fraud, Plaintiff and the Class were underpaid monthly for royalties and are entitled to recover actual and punitive damages. 88. In addition, the money wrongfully obtained by BP as a result of what should have been paid to Plaintiff and the Class should be held in constructive trust along with monetary interest for Plaintiff and the Class. PRAYER FOR RELIEF WHEREFORE, Plaintiff prays for an Order and Judgment against BP as follows: a. That the Court determine that this action may be maintained as a class action under Rule 23(a) and (b)(3) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and direct that reasonable notice of this action, as provided by Rule 23(c)(2) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, be given to members of the Class; b. Appointing Plaintiff as the class representative, and Plaintiff's Counsel as class counsel; c. Awarding Plaintiff and the Class damages for actual damages for breach of lease, and interest at the highest allowable rate (such as lawful, equitable, or internal rate of return), as well as compensatory and punitive damages for breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, deceit, and constructive fraud; d. Granting Plaintiff and the Class the costs of prosecuting this action together with reasonable attorney's fees out of the recovery; e. Granting such other relief as this Court may deem just, equitable and proper. 25 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 50 Filed in ED/OK on 04/u3/17 Page 26 of 27 DEMAND FOR JURY TRIAL Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 38(b), Plaintiff requests a jury trial on all matters so triable. 26 Respectfully Submitted, s/ Reaean E.

BP AMERICA PRODUCTION COMPANY (f/k/a Amoco Production Company) (including BP Amoco Corporation, ARCO, BP Exploration, Inc., BP Corporation North America, Inc., and BP Energy Company), Defendant. Civil Action No. 16 -CV -00410 -RAW PLAINTIFF'S SECOND AMENDED CLASS ACTION COMPLAINT John Cecil ("Plaintiff'), on behalf of himself and the Class of all other persons similarly situated, files this Second Amended Class Action Complaint against BP America Production Company ("BPAPC", f/k/a Amoco Production Company) and several affiliates—BP Amoco Corporation, ARCO, BP Exploration, Inc., BP America, Inc., BP Corporation North America, Inc., and BP Energy Company— (collectively `BP"), and alleges and states as follows: SUMMARY OF ACTION Plaintiff and the Class bring claims to rectify BP's actual, knowing, and willful underpayment or non-payment of royalties on natural gas and/or constituents of the gas stream produced from wells through improper accounting methods (such as not paying on the starting price for gas products but instead taking improper deductions) and by failing to account for and pay royalties, all as more fully described below. r 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 169-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/11/18 Page 2 of 31 2. For a period of over two decades, BP engaged in a willful effort to defraud its royalty owners in Oklahoma wells by intentionally deducting Midstream Service costs, which allowed BP and its co-conspirators to take millions of dollars that should have been paid in royalties. 3. The BP and its co-conspirators added to that effort by not paying royalties for all of the valuable constituents that came from Class Wells, such as FL&U and Plant Fuel, and again hiding that from royalty owners. 4. By systematically deducting more from every monthly check of every royalty owner in Oklahoma, BP and its co-conspirators improperly enriched themselves by millions of dollars. 5. BP purposefully implemented a scheme to defraud royalty owners and—over the objection of its own royalty committee—covered it up so that royalty owners (like those in this case) wouldn't file lawsuits to stop BP's fraud. 6. Only by serving discovery in this case, and uncovering documents that BP had previously concealed, could Plaintiff and the Class finally pursue justice for BP's decades -long scheme to defraud Oklahoma royalty owners. JURISDICTION AND VENUE 7. This Court has subject matter jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1331 (federal question jurisdiction); 18 U.S.C. §§ 1962 and 1964 (prohibited activities and civil remedies); and supplemental jurisdiction over the state law claims through 28 U.S.C. § 1967. 8. Venue is proper in this District pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1391 because BP transacts business and is found within this District, and/or has agents within this District, and a substantial part of the events giving rise to the claims asserted herein occurred and caused injury in this District. 2 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 169-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/11/18 Page 3 of 31 PARTIES Plaintiff is a citizen and resident of Oklahoma. Plaintiff owns a royalty interest in in a BP operated well that produces gas. 10. Defendant BP America Production Company, f/k/a Amoco Production Company (`BPAPC"), is a corporation organized under Delaware law with its principal place of business in Texas. BPAPC has already been served and appeared in this action. 11. BPAPC is responsible back to at least January 1, 1985 (when price deregulation began) for Amoco Production Co. wells since BP acquired Amoco in the late 1990s, for Atlantic Richfield Co. (ARCO) wells since BP acquired ARCO in 2000, and for Vastar wells since BP acquired Vastar in 2000. Thereafter, BP has a number of different entities that appear to be involved, as set forth below: BP PLC (the ultimate United Kingdom (foreign) parent company, which is publicly traded) I BP Holdings North America Limited BP America Inc. (houses all the lawyers and management that service all of the affiliates) I BP Corporation North America Inc. (f/k/a BP Amoco Corporation until May 200 1) I BP Company North America Inc. I BP America Production Company (a/k/a BPAPC or Lower 48, and f/k/a Amoco Production Company,' ARCO, and Vastar) (lessee and operator of Class Wells, and owner and operator of BP Midstream Services such as gathering systems and processing plants) Amoco Corporation merged with British Petroleum in 1998 in what was then the world's largest industrial merger of approximately $48 Billion. The combined company was called BP Amoco PLC, In 2000, BP Amoco bought ARCO for $27 Billion (which owned 82% of Vastar Resources, Inc.), and later that year, BP Amoco bought the rest of Vastar for approximately $1.5 Billion. In 2000, BP Amoco p.l.c. changed its name to BP PLC. 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 169-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/11/18 Page 4 of 31 F&H PIipeline Company (owned the F&H Gathering System in Oklahoma until it was bought by CenterPoint in 2011, which is now Enable) BP Energy Company (before August 28, 2000, f/k/a Amoco Energy Trading Company 12. BP Corporation North America, Inc. is believed to have been a lessee, working interest owner that marketed its own gas through a BP affiliate and directly paid royalties to the royalty owners, operator, and/or payor of royalty on Oklahoma wells that produced gas during the Class Period. BP Corporation North America, Inc. is an Indiana corporation that was formed in 2001 upon the name change of BP Amoco Corporation. The Oklahoma Secretary of State business entities database shows its current status as "ousted" for failure to file its annual certificate with the Oklahoma Secretary of State. Service may be had on its registered agent: The Prentice -Hall Corporation System, Oklahoma, Inc., 115 S.W. 89th St., Oklahoma City, OK 73139-8511. 13. From approximately 1999 to 2001, after Amoco Production Company was acquired by BP, its name was BP Amoco Corporation, which is believed to have been a lessee, working interest owner that marketed its own gas through a BP affiliate and directly paid royalties to the royalty owners, operator, and/or payor of royalty on Oklahoma wells that produced gas during the Class Period. In 2001, BP Amoco Corporation changed its name to BP Corporation North America, Inc. Because BP is a mere continuation of BP Amoco Corporation, BP Amoco Corporation has been served with process when BP was served with process at its registered agent: The Corporation Company, 1833 S. Morgan Road, Oklahoma City, OK 73128. 14. Prior to 1998, Amoco Production Company is believed to have been a lessee, working interest owner that marketed its own gas through an Amoco affiliate (Amoco Energy 4 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 169-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/11/18 Page 5 of 31 Trading Corporation) and directly paid royalties to the royalty owners, operator, and/or payor of royalty on Oklahoma wells that produced gas during the Class Period. In 1998 or 1999, BP acquired Amoco Corporation (including Amoco Production Company) to form BP Amoco Corporation.2 Accordingly, Amoco Corporation, Amoco Production Company, and BP Amoco Corporation are predecessors of BP. Since BP is a mere continuation of Amoco Corporation and Amoco Production Company, the Amoco entities were served with process when BP was served with process at its registered agent, The Corporation Company, 1833 S. Morgan Road, Oklahoma City, OK 73128. 15. BP—including its affiliated predecessor entities, Amoco Production Company, Amoco Corporation, ARCO, BP Corporation North America, Inc., BP Energy Company, and BP Amoco Corporation—is in the business of producing and marketing gas and constituent products from the wells in which Class members hold royalty interests. 16. The typical royalty payment is between 1/8th and 3/16th of a well's revenue. 17. BP and its affiliated predecessors, successors, and all those to whose prior leasehold interests they have succeeded and for whom they are legally liable whether by merger, assignment, or otherwise shall herein collectively be known as "Defendant" or `BP" CLASS ACTION ALLEGATIONS 18. Plaintiff brings this action on behalf of himself and as a class action pursuant to Rule 23(a) and (b)(3) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure on behalf of the following class (the "Class"): All persons or entities, except as specifically excluded below, who are or were royalty owners in wells located in Oklahoma which had production during any portion of the time period from January 1, 1985 through and including December 31, 2017, where Defendant BP America Production Company (including its 2 htt�•//www by com/en/global/corporate/about-bp/our-history/late-centum 5 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 169-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/11/18 Page 6 of 31 affiliated predecessors and affiliated successors) is or was the operator (or a working interest owner) who marketed its share of gas as to production before January 1, 2018. The claims in this matter relate to royalty payments for gas and its constituents (such as residue gas, natural gas liquids, helium, nitrogen, or drip condensate). Excluded from the Class are: (1) United States agencies and Indian tribes and allottees; (2) the State of Oklahoma or any of its agencies or departments that own royalty interests; (3) Defendant, its affiliates, predecessors, and employees, officers, and directors; (4) the claims of royalty owners to the extent their claims are covered by prior settlement agreements, if any, releasing claims as to all or part of the Class Period, but only to the extent such prior settlements fully released the claims of such royalty owner(s) that would be released by this proposed class settlement as to the Class Wells, Released Parties, and Released Claims (the intent being that this Settlement be and remain effective as to any claims not already released by any such prior settlement agreements); (5) overriding royalty owners and others whose interest was carved out from the lessee's working interest; (6) officers of the Court in this case; (7) persons or entities that the Court determines Plaintiffs Counsel are prohibited from representing under Rule 1.7 of the Oklahoma Rules of Professional Conduct; (8) any publicly traded company and their affiliated entities that produces, gathers, processes or markets gas; and (9) royalty owners who are suing in their individual capacities only for the alleged underpayment or nonpayment of royalties in Watts, et al. v. BP America Production Company, Case No. C-2001- 73 in the District Court for Pittsburg County, Oklahoma.3 19. The members of the Class are so numerous and geographically dispersed that joinder of all members is impracticable. 20. BP operates or has operated thousands of Class Wells that produce gas. BP holds a working interest in these Wells, with at least one, and usually multiple, royalty owners for each well. 21. BP has within its possession or control records that identify all persons to whom it (including affiliated predecessors and those for whom it is legally responsible) has paid royalties from Class Wells during the Class Period. 3 The Plaintiffs in the Watts v. Amoco case as of the date hereof are: Ronald W. McGee, as Trustee of Watts Ranch, LLC; Nora Ann Watts Enis; Judy R. Durant; Johnye L. Barnes; the Estate of Clara Joann Smith; and the C&J Wilcox Family Trust. 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 169-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/11/18 Page 7 of 31 22. The questions of fact or law common to Plaintiff and the Class include, without limitation, one or more of the following: Whether Plaintiff and members of the Class are owed a common legal duty under: (1) Implied Duty to Market (IDM) as well as express duties of the leases; (2) fiduciary duty; (3) tortious breach of lease; (4) RICO; and/or (5) fraud, deceit, or constructive fraud, which requires BP to sever the gas from the ground and to prepare the gas for market at BP's sole expense? A. If so, whether: 1. An affiliate sale can be ignored as a matter of law under Howell v. Texaco, Inc., 2004 OK 92, so that only the first arm's length sale in a market can be used to determine the royalty without any netback or work back calculation of costs allowed; 2. In an arm's length transaction, are the Midstream Costs of gathering, compression, dehydration, treatment, and processing (GCDTP) costs associated with preparing the gas for market such that none of them should have been deducted from royalties but all or some of them were; B. Whether BP paid royalty to Plaintiff and members of the Class for all valuable constituents coming from their wells, including Helium, Drip Condensate, FL&U and Plant Fuel? C. Whether BP, BP's affiliates, BP's executives, and Amoco formed an enterprise - in -fact (the BP/Amoco Enterprise) within the meaning of RICO? D. Whether BP and the other members of the BP/Amoco enterprise -in -fact engaged in a pattern of racketeering activity? E. Whether the BP/Amoco Enterprise caused Plaintiff and the Class to suffer injuries to their property? F. Can class -wide damages be calculated? 23. Plaintiff is typical of other class members because: (a) Plaintiff (like the rest of the Class) has a lease that requiring full, not partial payment; (b) gas from the well in which Plaintiff (like the rest of the Class) holds a royalty interest was and is marketed by BP and incurs Midstream Service costs; and, (c) BP pays royalty to Plaintiff (like other Class members) using a common method that deducts the Midstream Service costs. BP pays royalty based on this net 7 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 169-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/11/18 Page 8 of 31 instead of gross value. The Midstream Services are necessary to place the gas and its constituent parts into marketable condition so they can be sold into recognized, active, and competitive commercial markets. 24. Plaintiff will fairly and adequately protect the interests of the members of the Class. Plaintiff is a royalty owner to whom BP pays royalty. Plaintiff understands his duties as a Class representative. Plaintiff has retained counsel competent and experienced in class action and royalty owner litigation. 25. This action is properly maintainable as a class action. Common questions of law or fact exist as to all members of the Class and those common questions predominate over any questions solely affecting individual members of such Class. See ¶22 above. There is no need for individual Class members to testify in order to establish BP's liability to or damages sustained by Plaintiff and members of the Class. 26. Class action treatment is appropriate in this matter and is superior to the alternative of numerous individual lawsuits by members of the Class. Class action treatment will allow a large number of similarly situated individuals to prosecute their common claims in a single forum, simultaneously, efficiently, and without duplication of time, expense and effort on the part of those individuals, witnesses, the courts, and/or BP. Likewise, class action treatment will avoid the possibility of inconsistent and/or varying results in this matter arising out of the same facts. No difficulties are likely to be encountered in the management of this class action that would preclude its maintenance as a class action and no superior alternative forum exists for the fair and efficient adjudication of the claims of all Class members. 27. Class action treatment in this matter is further superior to the alternative of numerous individual lawsuits by all or some members of the Class. Joinder of all Class members 8 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 169-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/11/18 Page 9 of 31 would be either highly impracticable or impossible. And the amounts at stake for individual Class members, while significant in the aggregate, would be insufficient to enable them to retain competent legal counsel to pursue claims individually. In the absence of a class action in this matter, BP will likely retain the benefit of its wrongdoing. GAS INDUSTRY BACKGROUND 32. The members of the Class own royalty interests in wells that produce gas and constituents that are transformed into marketable products and sold into the established commercial markets for those products. 33. BP's method for calculating royalty to the members of the Class is subject to uniform accounting procedures, implied marketable product law, and express lease requirements. 34. Oklahoma law requires the lessee to bear all of the costs of placing gas and its constituents into "Marketable Condition" products and to honor the terms of the leases. 35. Gas and its constituent parts are marketable products only when they are in the physical condition to be bought and sold in a commercial marketplace. 36. Only after a given product is marketable does a royalty owner have to pay its proportionate share of the reasonable costs to get a higher enhanced value or price for that particular product. The Lessor -Lessee Relationship 37. The lessor owns minerals, including oil and gas; the lessee has the money, labor, and know-how to extract, condition, and market those minerals. The lessor and lessee enter into a lease that allows the lessee to take the minerals from the lessor's land. The usual revenue split from a well was 1/8th to the lessor (royalty owner) and 7/8ths to the lessee. As the risk of finding oil and gas has diminished over time, due to the prevalence of wells delineating the field, better 4 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 169-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/11/18 Page 10 of 31 seismic technology, and increased efficiency of drilling rigs, royalty owners on more recent leases have received 3/16th or even 1/4th of the revenue. 38. But, the oil and gas companies (including BP) have used undisclosed internal accounting practices to try to keep for themselves as much of the well revenue as possible. These accounting practices are at the heart of every oil and gas royalty case. 39. Rather than adopting transparency in its royalty calculation formula, BP, like most lessees, has guarded its production and accounting processes as confidential or proprietary, thereby, depriving the royalty owners of information necessary to understand how BP calculates royalties. Consequently, the royalty owner is unaware of the lessee's actual practices, thereby enabling the lessee to breach the oil and gas lease without accountability. 40. If and when one or more of the royalty owners learn of the "breach", the royalty owner has only three (3) — all poor — options: (1) confront the lessee and maybe get paid while the lessee continues to retain improperly garnered gas revenues from thousands of other unknowing royalty owners; (2) do nothing since the "breach" only results in a modest yearly loss and the expense of individual litigation would exceed the recovery, if any; or (3) file a class action lawsuit which will persist for years and probably will not recover the full loss. In short, if the lessee breaches, it may never be held accountable; and if a royalty owner complains, the lessee will still come out ahead because an individual case is not worth much and a class action rarely obtains 100% repayment to royalty owners plus -prejudgment interest, plus attorneys' fees and expenses. The class action is the best of the three options, hence this suit. Residue Gas and Natural Gas Liquids Production 41. The gas is gathered from each well, dehydrated and compressed, through underground gathering lines crossing many miles of land to processing plants where the raw gas 10 i 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 169-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/11/18 Page 11 of 31 is transformed into two primary products --methane and fractionated natural gas liquids ("NGLs"). Once homogenized as fungible products, the residue gas and NGLs are sold in the commercial market. Wellhead (Basic Separation and Gas Measurement) 42. The diagram below illustrates the beginning of the gas conditioning process. gas line meter Oil, gas, and water emulsion line (Ilow ling) -\ tree water knockout well head oil, gas clean and water oil emulsion ';:heater line' line saltwater line to disposal recirculating oil line , See htti)://www.kgs.ku.edu/Publications/0il/primerl3.html 43. Wells produce oil, gas, and a host of other products, such as water, helium, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, etc., all mixed together in the gas stream.4 After the stream comes out of the ground, it enters the free water knockout (a/k/a three-phase separator) which separates the products by gravity, water at the bottom, oil in the middle, and gas going out the top. Due to the Hydrocarbons can vary in chemical makeup (from simple methane to complex octane) and in form (from pure gaseous state to liquid condensate). The non -hydrocarbon makeup of the well -stream that includes natural gas can also include gases such as helium, sulfur, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen. This mixture of many gaseous elements and substances is often referred to as the "gas stream" or just "gas". 11 r i 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 169-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/11/18 Page 12 of 31 low technology, the separator is not expensive (the "separation cost'). The gaseous mixture (with helium, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, NGLs, and other gaseous substances) passes from the separator into the gas line.5 The remaining fluid goes through the heater -treater where heat, gravity segregation, chemical additives and electric current break down the mixture more clearly in oil and water. The heater -treater is installed, maintained and takes fuel to operate (the "heater -treater cost'). The water is drained off and sent for salt water disposal. The oil that is separated at the wellhead is collected in a tank, usually trucked out and sold (the payment of oil royalties is not at issue in this lawsuit). 44. Since production over time depletes the pressure of a well, on rare occasion, on - lease compressors are installed to suction gas out of the well or to move the gaseous mixture down the gathering lines. But when they are installed, their use requires fuel (the "on -lease compression' or "vacuum compression' cost). 45. The gaseous mixture produced from a single well cannot be processed economically, so the mixtures from many wells are "gathered" together through gathering lines and delivered to a processing plant for transformation into marketable products and sale into commercial markets. This results in a gathering cost (G). The below diagram provides an overview of the process. BP does not improperly deduct from royalty any of the costs before the gathering line inlet. 5 A minute portion of this raw gas may be used on a few leased lands to heat the farm house pursuant to a free gas clause in the lease. Although title transfers to the gas, it is not a sale. Some producers sell less than 3% of the raw gas to a local irrigator during the summer months for agricultural purposes, but this is not the economic market for which the wells are drilled. 12 r i 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 169-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/11/18 Page 13 of 31 YLMwdt 1worx . 1 Midstream Service Costs (GCDTP) Gntheri� Une InMt 46. As the gaseous mixture from each well enters the gathering line, it flows into a meter run where the mixture is measured for both volume (in Mel) and quality (Btu content) (combined, "gas measurement," in MMBtu). The meter run must be constantly maintained to record accurate measurements. 47. Gathering pipelines are usually made of metal that could be corroded by water vapor (and other corrosive gases) in the gaseous mixture, so a glycol dehydrator is used to remove the water vapor. This results in a dehydration cost (D). 48. Gas will not move downstream from the well unless it is pressurized sufficiently to overcome the in-line back pressure and friction in the gathering line.

So large gas compressors 13 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 169-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/11/18 Page 14 of 31 are installed to move the gas from the gathering line inlet to the processing plant. These compressors are expensive and require fuel to operate. This results in a compression cost (C). 49. The gathering pipelines themselves cost money to lay and maintain, though most have been in place for decades. 50. Finally, gathering lines leak, especially as they age, resulting in lost and unaccounted for gas ("L&U"). Lessees pay no royalty on the volume of L&U. Combined, the compression and/or treatment fuel along with L&U are called FL&U. Natural Gas Processing 51. Once a sufficient amount of the gas mixture from multiple wells (and often from multiple gathering systems) is gathered, the mixture enters the inlet of the processing plant where the mixture will be transformed into methane and mixed NGLs. 52. Lessees, such as BP, use gas processing plants that either they or a third -party own. Usually an unrelated third party owns the processing plant but the plant may also be owned in whole or in part by a lessee. 53. The plant removes impurities that remain in the mixture, such as carbon dioxide, nitrogen, or sulfur, before the mixture can be processed. This incurs a "treatment cost' (T)). 54. The final cost, processing (P), involves services to transform the gas mixture into methane gas (also called "residue gas") and NGLs raw make. a. Methane must meet the quality standards for long-haul pipeline transmission set by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC") which is called "pipeline quality gas". b. The raw make NGLs are used as a feedstock in the petrochemical and oil refining industries; they are a more valuable commodity than methane. To separate the 14 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 169-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/11/18 Page 15 of 31 NGLs from the gaseous mixture, they are cooled to temperatures lower than minus 150°F (the "Cryogenic or cooling process"). The NGLs move into a liquids pipeline and processed by a fractionator into their marketable products: ethane; propane; butanes; and pentanes plus. In the gas contracts, this process incurs a "T&F" or "fractionation" fee, even though lessees sometimes give away the NGLs in keep -whole agreements as consideration for other services the midstream company provides. 55. This total processing system involves expensive equipment and requires fuel to operate (collectively, the "processing charge" and/or "plant fuel'). Lessees do not pay royalty on plant fuel, even though it comes from Class Wells. 56. At the tailgate of the processing plant, at least two products emerge: (1) residue gas (or methane gas); and, (2) NGLs (usually a mixture of NGLs, known as "raw make" or "Y" grade). But none of these products are commercially marketable at that point. Marketable Condition for the Products 57. Methane Gas. Methane gas (or residue gas) is commercial quality (a/k/a "pipeline quality") at the tailgate of the processing plant only after it is further pressurized to enter the transmission line by a booster compressor (the "booster compression' cost). 58. NGLs. The raw mixture of NGLs at the tailgate of the processing plant is not commercially marketable. It must be fractionated into commercially marketable products — ethane, propane, butane, isobutene, natural gasoline, etc.6 In computing royalty for NGLs, BP improperly deducts processing fees and/or other costs (such as transportation and fractionation, T&F) needed to reach commercially marketable fractionated NGLs. 6 See http://ngi.conocophillips.com/news/about.html. 15 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 169-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/11/18 Page 16 of 31 Sale of Products 59. To turn the marketable products into money, the producer sells them (or contracts to have them sold) in the commercial market place in an arm's length transaction. No money exchanges hands until the residue gas is sold at the Index pool and the fractionated NGLs at OPIS. The Paper Title Transfer Cover -Up 60. Lessees, such as BP here, attempt to obscure the actual gas preparation for market through fictitious sales, often affiliate sales, with self-serving language in gas marketing contracts about title transfer or even by creating a wholly owned affiliate to manufacture a fictitious or bogus "sale" before the gas reaches commercial quality for sale. 61. The "starting price" for gas products is always achieved, as it must be, at a commercial market price. All of the gas contracts express the commercial market price in one of two ways: (a) a market price, called an "Index" price for residue gas and "OPIS" price for fractionated NGLs, or (b) a "weighted average sales price" or "WASP" achieved at the same residue Index market or OPIS market. The difference stems from BP's market power to, over time, obtain above "Index" or "OPIS" price in its arm's length sale. Whichever starting price is used in an arm's length transaction, that price is the highest and best reasonable price for the valuable gas products. 62. Affiliate gas contracts are not arm's length sales in a commercial market. Instead, the later arm's-length sale by the affiliate in the commercial market is the true sale that should be used as the "starting price" for marketable condition gas products. a. Some lessees, such as BP here, contract with or use affiliated gathering companies or other affiliated gas service providers before the products (residue gas and/or 16 6:16-cv-00410-13AW Document 169-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/11/18 Page 17 of 31 NGLs) are in Marketable Condition in an effort to: (1) artificially, and improperly, create a commercial market where none truly exists so they may justify deducting costs from royalty, or not paying for all of the gas or constituent products produced; (2) charge "marketing fees" (sometimes disguised as a Return on Investment) to royalty owners even though the lessee is already obligated under the lease to prepare the gas for market and market the gas and constituent products; and/or (3) pay on the lower lessee/affiliate sale price and not the higher affiliate/third party price. b. WASP involves a pool of sales transactions to third parties (and/or affiliates) and combines the prices paid by those third parties (and/or affiliates) to arrive at a "weighted average sales price." Lessees can manipulate this process by using lower lessee/affiliate sales prices for part of the pool price, rather than all third party arm's length sale prices. 63. Fictitious "sales" are created by lessees in an effort to pass off a non-commercial market sale as if it should be the starting point for royalty payments. But none of those efforts comport with economic reality or are in good faith with respect to royalty owners. For instance: a. Anything of value can be sold at any place and in any condition. i. Gas and other minerals can and are routinely sold in the ground, but they are not in marketable condition. ii. Gas could be sold at the bottom of the hole when it is severed from the surrounding rock and enters the downhole pipe. Although a contract driller might be willing to accept some percentage of the future sale of oil or gas in the real 17 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 169-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/11/18 Page 18 of 31 marketplace as compensation for his drilling services, that agreement does not make the transaction a real market sale. iii. Gas could be sold "at the wellhead" when the gas is severed from the surface. Although a contract operator might be willing to accept some percentage of the future sale of oil or gas in the real marketplace as compensation for his well operating services, that transaction does not make it a real market sale. iv. Gas also could be sold at the gathering line inlet when the gas enters the gathering line and changes custody. Although a contract gatherer might be willing to accept some percentage of the future sale of gas in the real marketplace as compensation for its gathering services, that transaction does not make it a real market sale. V. Gas also could be sold at the processing plant inlet when the gas changes custody to the processing plant. Although a contract processor might be willing to accept some percentage of the future sale of gas in the real marketplace as compensation for his processing services, that transaction does not make it a real market sale. The lessee could simply pay for all of these services with monetary fees or in-kind contributions of all or part of the valuable constituents. But the structure of the transaction does not change the fact that the services are necessary to prepare the gas and valuable constituents for the first real sale into the commercial market — Index or OPIS. b. Nor does a contract saying title transfers at a custody transfer point create a sale of marketable products in a real commercial market. Some gas contracts with Midstream companies that provide GCDTP services purport to do that, but other 18 � f 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 169-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/11/18 Page 19 of 31 parts of the gas contract demonstrate that it is a legal sleight of hand as (i) the risk of loss that usually passes with a true title transfer and market sale does not happen; (ii) the cost of future downstream services that usually passes with a true title transfer and market sale does not happen; (iii) the starting price which would occur with a true title transfer and market sale does not happen. Indeed, the paper title transfer is unnecessary to receiving the Midstream services as the gas could receive the exact same Midstream service without the paper title transfer. c. All of the gas contracts implicitly recognize this paper title transfer fiction, as the starting price for gas products always is at the Index and OPIS market pool as previously described. d. Midstream services providers are not buyers and resellers of raw gas. They are service providers that convert raw gas into pipeline quality gas so it can enter the Index or OPIS market pools. Different Ways BP Underpays Royalty Owners 64. The millions of dollars at stake and the one-sided nature of the gas lessor -lessee relationship are constant temptations to illegally siphon away gas royalties and covertly charge inflated costs and deductions to royalty owners. 65. All payment formulas, affiliate and non -affiliate contractual relationships, and all calculations are exclusively in the control of lessees, and they involve undisclosed accounting and operational practices. As a result, there are many ways royalty owners are underpaid on their royalty interests, and they never know it. The common thread through all of these schemes is that they are typically buried in the internal lessee accounting systems or royalty -payment formulas. 19 r 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 169-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/11/18 Page 20 of 31 66. BP represents the royalty calculation on the form of a monthly check stub it sends each royalty owner. The check stub shows each royalty owner's interest and taxes (which are not in dispute here), and volume, price, deductions, and value, all of which are disputed. 67. BP underpays royalty to Plaintiff and all other Class Members in the following ways: a. Residue Gas. The starting price paid for residue gas should be an arm's length, third party market sales price for residue gas at pipeline quality. All of BP's gas contracts show this to be true. But, instead of paying on that gross competitive price, BP pays on a net price after directly taking or allowing midstream companies to indirectly take Midstream Services deductions (both monetary fees and in-kind volumetric deductions). b. NGLs. The starting price paid for fractionated NGLs should be an arm's length, third party market sales price for ethane, propane, normal butane, iso -butane, and pentane plus (a/k/a natural gasoline). All of BP's gas contracts will show this to be true. But instead of paying on that gross competitive price, BP pays royalty (i) for only some of the NGLs produced (some is lost and unaccounted for in the gathering process, lost in plant fuel or compression fuel); (ii) after deducting Midstream processing fees and expenses (often keeping in-kind a Percentage of the Proceeds ("POP") of the fractionated NGLs as payment for the processing services); and, (iii) after reducing payment by T&F. 20 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 169-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/11/18 Page 21 of 31 BP's ACTUAL, KNOWING AND WILLFUL UNDERPAYMENT OR NON-PAYMENT OF ROYALTIES 68. As set forth above, the underpayment and non-payment of royalties are done with BP's actual and willful knowledge and scienter. BP's decision to overrule its own royalty committee and conceal the deductions it is taking from royalty owners is indefensible. 69. In fact, BP has settled similar claims on a non -class basis in Oklahoma, yet only doing so for those that asserted their claims individually. This allowed BP to quiet the "squeaky wheels" while continuing its improper practices as to all others and reaping millions of dollars in improper proceeds. 70. In addition, BP is well familiar with the fact that virtually all other producers in Oklahoma have resolved the same claims, paying back to royalty owners over a billion dollars. 71. Nevertheless, BP continues its improper payment practices with actual and willful knowledge and intent. COUNT I — VIOLATION OF THE RICO ACT, 18 U.S.C. 44 1961-1968 72. Plaintiff and the Class incorporate by reference the allegations in all other paragraphs of this Complaint as if fully set forth in this section. 73. Plaintiff, each member of the Class, and BP and its co-conspirators are a "person," as that term is defined in 18 U.S.C. §§ 1961(3) and 1962(c). 74. The scheme alleged herein constitutes mail and/or wire fraud in violation of 18 U.S.C. §§ 1341 and 1343. 75. The conduct of BP and its co-conspirators, as described in this Complaint, constitutes the execution of a scheme to deprive oil and gas lessors of royalties properly due them by means of fraudulent pretenses and representations through the use of the United States mails, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1341, and interstate wires, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1343. 21 I 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 169-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/11/18 Page 22 of 31 The Enterprise 76. For purposes of this claim, the RICO "enterprise", as the term is defined under 18 U.S.C. §§ 1961(4) and 1962(c), consists of each of BP and its co-conspirators—and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, and direct and indirect subsidiaries (the "Enterprise"). 77. The Enterprise is separate and distinct from the persons that constitute that enterprise -in -fact. 78. Each of the intra -company transactions made by BP was an "intra -company gas sale," rather than an arms -length sale reflecting the actual market price. This was a scheme to defraud. 79. BP and its co-conspirators refuse to be transparent toward royalty owners. 80. The deductions taken are indefensible. With full clarity that these deductions are actually a scheme to defraud, it now makes sense why the BP took such deductions. 81. To date, the Defendants have deducted millions of dollars. 82. This self-dealing is at the heart of the affiliate deduction issue and RICO. 83. This fact is not disclosed to royalty owners or to the public. 84. At all relevant times, the Enterprise was engaged in, and its activities affected, interstate commerce because the mails and wires were used to effectuate the scheme and BP could not have executed the scheme to defraud without using interstate commerce. IJP 85. The proceeds of the Enterprise were distributed to its participants, including to 86. The Enterprise was ongoing and worked together toward a common purpose. 22 f � 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 169-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/11/18 Page 23 of 31 87. All of the co-conspirators in the enterprise in fact worked together and cooperatively toward this common purpose. 88. Each of the co-conspirators expressly agreed to, and did, knowingly and willfully participate in the conduct of the Enterprise. 89. The Enterprise has operated for decades. 90. The Enterprise has an ascertainable structure separate and apart from the pattern of racketeering activity in which BP engaged. The Pattern of Racketeering Activity 91. At all relevant times, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1962(c), BP conducted the affairs of the Enterprise through a pattern of racketeering activity as defined in RICO, 18 U.S.C. § 1961(5), by virtue of the conduct described in this complaint. 92. The pattern of racketeering activity consisted of mail and/or wire fraud in violation of 18 U.S.C. §§ 1341 and 1343. 93. BP, as the lessee, owes a contractual obligation to act honestly and fairly to the royalty owners. Nevertheless, BP misused its position. 94. BP also owes a duty not to charge unreasonable fees to the royalty owners. 95. If any of the co-conspirators did not conduct or participate in the enterprise, all of the co-conspirators nevertheless conspired to do so, in violation of § 1962(d), because the joined an agreement to facilitate and perpetuate the scheme to defraud against the royalty owners. Injury to Plaintiffs and the Class 96. As a direct and proximate result of violations of 18 U.S.C. § 1962(c) and (d) by BP, Plaintiff and the Class have been injured in their business or property within the meaning of 18 U.S.C. § 1964(c). 23 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 169-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/11/18 Page 24 of 31 97. Plaintiff and the Class had and continue to have sums withheld from their royalty on account of falsely inflated, unauthorized post -production costs by reason, and as a direct, proximate, and foreseeable result, of the scheme alleged. Plaintiffs' continued deprivation through inflated and unreasonable deductions evidence their reliance on the BP's misstatements. 98. Under the provisions of 18 U.S.C. § 1964(c), BP is jointly and severally liable to Plaintiff and the Class for three times the damages sustained, plus the costs of bringing this suit, including reasonable attorneys' fees. COUNT II — BREACH OF LEASE (INCLUDING EXPRESS TERMS AND IMPLIED COVENANTS) 99. Plaintiff and the Class incorporate by reference the allegations in all other paragraphs of this Complaint as if fully set forth in this section. 100. Plaintiff and the other Class Members entered into written, fully executed, oil and gas leases with BP, and the express and implied terms of those leases were breached which include implied covenants requiring BP to prepare the gas and its constituent parts for market at BP's sole cost. The leases also place upon BP the obligation to properly account for and pay royalty interests to royalty owners under the mutual benefit rule and good faith and fair dealing. 101. At all material times, Plaintiff and the Class have performed their terms and obligations under the leases. 102. BP breached the leases, including the implied covenants, by its actions and/or inactions in underpaying royalty or not paying royalty on all products sold from the gas stream. 103. As a result of BP's breaches, Plaintiff and the Class have been damaged through underpayment of the actual amounts due. 24 6:10'-cv-00410-RAW Document 169-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/11/18 Page 25 of 31 COUNT III — BREACH OF FIDUCIARY DUTY 104. Plaintiff and the Class incorporate by reference the allegations in all other paragraphs of this Complaint as if fully set forth in this section. 105. The Class members have interests in Oklahoma wells that have unitized under 52 Okla. Stat. § 87.1. 106. A fiduciary duty was created and vested when BP (or its predecessor in interest) requested and received unitization orders from the Oklahoma Corporation Commission pursuant to those statutes. 107. BP is the unit operator by appointment from the Oklahoma Corporation Commission for Class members. 108. BP breached its fiduciary duty to the Class members by failing to properly report, account for, and distribute gas proceeds to the Class members for their proportionate royalty share of gas production. 109. As a direct and proximate result of BP's conduct in breaching its fiduciary duties, Class members are entitled to recover actual damages. 110. Plaintiff and the Class are also entitled to and seek pre judgment interest, post- judgment interest, attorneys' fees from the common fund, expenses, and costs. COUNTS IV, V, AND VI — FRAUD, DECEIT, AND CONSTRUCTIVE FRAUD 111. Plaintiff and the Class incorporate by reference the allegations in all other paragraphs of this Complaint as if fully set forth in this section. 112. BP made uniform misrepresentations and/or omissions on the monthly check stubs sent to Class members reflecting the wrong volume and price, and not detailing all of the monetary fee and in-kind volumetric deductions. 25 l 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 169-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/11/18 Page 26 of 31 113. As set forth above, BP made a material representation that was false and/or omitted to state one or more material facts needed to make what was stated not misleading. BP knew when the material representations were made on the check stubs that the statements were false or misleading and/or at least made recklessly without any knowledge of their truth, or made the statements with the intent that Plaintiff and the Class would rely on them. Plaintiff and the Class Members did rely on and/or are legally presumed to have relied upon these uniform written representations as being truthful and accurate, when they were not. Plaintiff and the Class Members suffered injury and were underpaid as a result. 114. BP also concealed or failed to disclose facts about the price, volume, value, various products produced, and deductions, which BP had a duty to disclose to avoid presenting half-truths or misrepresentations. 115. BP undertook the duty to properly account by making the statements in check stubs on a monthly basis to royalty owners. By speaking on the issue, BP had a duty to make full and fair disclosure of all relevant facts. This is especially so because BP had superior and/or specialized knowledge and/or access to information when compared to royalty owners. 116. BP knew that its representations or omissions on the monthly check stubs were at least ambiguous and created a false impression of the actual facts to the royalty owners. 117. BP knew the facts were peculiarly within BP's knowledge and that the Class was not in a position to discover the facts pertaining to the proper volume, values, and constituents coming from their wells. Accordingly, having spoken on the subject matter, BP had a duty to make full and fair disclosure of all material facts such that its statements were not misleading, but did not. 26 r 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 169-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/11/18 Page 27 of 31 118. BP was deceitful by suggesting, as a fact, that the volume, price, value and other statements were as set forth on the monthly check stubs when those statements were not true. BP knew the statements were not true, had no reasonable grounds for believing they were true, or gave only such information as was likely to mislead for want of the communication of the non - disclosed facts. 119. The misrepresentations and omissions were intentionally made. They were intended to suggest that the price was a third party commercial price without hidden deductions, the volumes were accurately measured without volumetric deductions, and that deductions would be shown on the check stub when in fact they were not. 120. By creating and mailing misleading check stubs to the Class, BP has fraudulently and deceitfully misled the Class into believing that the Class Members had been paid on the full value of the production from their wells. 121. BP acted intentionally or recklessly in disregard of the rights of Plaintiff and the Class Members, on a uniform basis, by not properly paying royalty owners, by deceiving them with check stubs that were misleading, and by failing to correct BP's royalty payment practices after being sued multiple times for underpaying royalties such that punitive damages should be awarded and that BP acted intentionally and with malice toward Plaintiff and the Class Members subjecting BP to punitive damages. 122. As a direct and proximate result of BP's deceit and fraud, Plaintiff and the Class were underpaid monthly for royalties and are entitled to recover actual and punitive damages. 123. In addition, the money wrongfully obtained by BP as a result of what should have been paid to Plaintiff and the Class should be held in constructive trust along with monetary interest for Plaintiff and the Class. 27 i 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 169-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/11/18 Page 28 of 31 COUNT VII — TORTIOUS BREACH OF LEASE 124. Plaintiff and the Class incorporate by reference the allegations in all other paragraphs of this Complaint as if fully set forth in this section. 125. Defendants' actions amount to more than a simple breach of contract. Implied into every contract is the duty to deal honestly and fairly. Class. 126. Defendants are guilty of tortious breach of contract resulting in damages to the 127. Defendants' tortious acts were performed intentionally, maliciously and with utter disregard to the express and implied rights of the Class. Therefore, in addition to actual damages, Defendants should pay punitive damages as a method of punishing Defendants and setting an example for others. PRAYER FOR RELIEF WHEREFORE, Plaintiff prays for an Order and Judgment against BP as follows: a. That the Court determine that this action may be maintained as a class action under Rule 23(a) and (b)(3) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and direct that reasonable notice of this action, as provided by Rule 23(c)(2) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, be given to members of the Class; b. Appointing Plaintiff as the class representative, and Plaintiff's Counsel as class counsel; c. Awarding Plaintiff and the Class damages and treble damages for the violation of RICO, plus attorneys' fees, as set forth in the RICO statute; d. Awarding Plaintiff and the Class damages for actual damages for breach of lease, and interest at the highest allowable rate (such as lawful, equitable, or internal rate 28 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 169-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/11/18 Page 29 of 31 of return), as well as compensatory and punitive damages for breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, deceit, and constructive fraud; e. Awarding pre- and post judgment interest; f. Granting Plaintiff and the Class the costs of prosecuting this action together with reasonable attorney's fees out of the recovery; g. Granting such other relief as this Court may deem just, equitable and proper. DEMAND FOR JURY TRIAL Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 38(b), Plaintiff requests a jury trial on all matters so triable. 29 Respectfully Submitted, /s/Reagan E Bradford REAGAN E.

Bradford Reagan Bradford 31 6:16-cv-00410-RAW uocument 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 52 of 140 Exhibit 1 IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF OKLAHOMA JOHN CECIL, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, Plaintiff, VS. BP AMERICA PRODUCTION COMPANY (f/k/a Amoco Production Company) (including BP Amoco Corporation, ARCO, BP Exploration, Inc., BP Corporation North America, Inc., and BP Energy Company), Defendant. Civil Action No. 16 -CV -00410 -RAW ORDER GRANTING PRELIMINARY APPROVAL OF CLASS ACTION SETTLEMENT, CERTIFYING THE CLASS FOR SETTLEMENT PURPOSES, APPROVING FORM AND MANNER OF NOTICE, AND SETTING DATE FOR FINAL FAIRNESS HEARING This is a proposed class action lawsuit brought by Plaintiff, John Cecil ("Plaintiff'), on behalf of himself and as the proposed representative of a Class of royalty owners (defined below), against BP America Production Company ("Defendant"), for, among other claims, the alleged underpayment of gas royalties on gas and its constituents (including helium, residue gas, natural gas liquids, nitrogen and condensate) produced from wells in Oklahoma where g Defendant, including its affiliated predecessors or affiliates, is or was the operator or as a non - operator, Defendant separately marketed its gas. On April 13, 2018, the Parties executed the 1 6:16-cv-00410-RAW document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 53 of 140 Settlement Agreement finalizing the terms of the proposed class action Settlement.' The Settlement Agreement (including the exhibits thereto) sets forth the terms and conditions for the proposed Settlement of the Litigation. In accordance with the terms of the proposed Settlement Agreement, Plaintiff now presents the Settlement Agreement to the Court for preliminary approval under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23. After reviewing the pleadings and Plaintiffs Motion to Certify the Settlement Class, Preliminarily Approve Class Action Settlement, Approve Form and Manner of Notice, and Set Date for Final Fairness Hearing and Opening Brief in Support ("Motion for Preliminary Approval'), the Court has preliminarily considered the Settlement Agreement and the resulting Settlement to determine, among other things, whether the Settlement Agreement warrants the issuance of notice to the Settlement Class. Upon reviewing the Settlement Agreement and the Motion for Preliminary Approval, it is hereby ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED as follows: I . For purposes of this Order, the Court adopts all defined terms as set forth in the Settlement Agreement unless otherwise defined herein. 2. The Court finds the Settlement Class should be certified for the purposes of proceeding forward with the Settlement. The Class meets all certification requirements of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23 for a settlement class. The certified Settlement Class is defined as follows: All persons or entities, except as specifically excluded below, who are or were royalty owners in wells located in Oklahoma which had production during any portion of the time period from January 1, 1985 through and including December 31, 2017, where Defendant BP America Production Company (including its affiliated predecessors and affiliated successors) is or was the Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Order shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Settlement Agreement. 2 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 54 of 140 operator (or a working interest owner) who marketed its share of gas as to production before January 1, 2018. The claims in this matter relate to royalty payments for gas and its constituents (such as residue gas, natural gas liquids, helium, nitrogen, or drip condensate). Excluded from the Class are: (1) United States agencies and Indian tribes and allottees; (2) the State of Oklahoma or any of its agencies or departments that own royalty interests; (3) Defendant, its affiliates, predecessors, and employees, officers, and directors; (4) the claims of royalty owners to the extent their claims are covered by prior settlement agreements, if any, releasing claims as to all or part of the Class Period, but only to the extent such prior settlements fully released the claims of such royalty owner(s) that would be released by this proposed class settlement as to the Class Wells, Released Parties, and Released Claims (the intent being that this Settlement be and remain effective as to any claims not already released by any such prior settlement agreements); (5) overriding royalty owners and others whose interest was carved out from the lessee's working interest; (6) officers of the Court in this case; (7) persons or entities that the Court determines Plaintiff's Counsel are prohibited from representing under Rule 1.7 of the Oklahoma Rules of Professional Conduct; (8) any publicly traded company and their affiliated entities that produces, gathers, processes or markets gas; and (9) royalty owners who are suing in their individual capacities only for the alleged underpayment or nonpayment of royalties in Watts, et al. v. BP America Production Company, Case No. C-2001- 73 in the District Court for Pittsburg County, Oklahoma.2 3. The Court finds the above -defined Settlement Class satisfies all prerequisites of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23 for certification of a settlement class: a. Numerosity. Plaintiff has demonstrated "[tjhe class is so numerous that joinder of all members is impracticable." FED. R. Civ. P. 23(a)(1). The Tenth Circuit has not adopted a set number as presumptively sufficient to meet this burden, and there is "no set formula to determine if the class is so numerous that it should be so certified." Trevizo v. Adams, 455 F.3d 1155, 1162 (10th Cir. 2006). Whether a class satisfies the numerosity requirement is "a fact -specific inquiry" that district courts have "wide latitude" when determining. In re Cox Enters., Inc., No. 12 -ML -2048-C, 2014 WL 2 The Plaintiffs in the Watts v. Amoco case as of the date hereof are: Ronald W. McGee, as Trustee of Watts Ranch, LLC; Nora Ann Watts Enis; Judy R. Durant; Johnye L. Barnes; the Estate of Clara Joann Smith; and the C&J Wilcox Family Trust. I 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04i13/18 Page 55 of 140 104964, at *3 (W.D. Okla. Jan. 9, 2014) (quoting Trevizo, 455 F.3d 1155, 1162 (10th Cir. 2006); Chieftain Royalty Co. v. XTO Energy, Inc., No. CIV -11 -29 -KEW, 2018 WL 501656, at *2 (E.D. Okla. Jan. 18, 2018) (same). Here, the Settlement Class consists of thousands of royalty owners. Therefore, the Court finds the numerosity prerequisite is undoubtedly met. b. Commonality. Plaintiff has also demonstrated "[t]here are questions of law or fact common to the class" in relation to the proposed Settlement Class. FED. R. Civ. P. 23(a)(2). C. Typicality. Plaintiff has also shown "[t]he claims or defenses of the representative parties are typical of the claims or defenses of the class" in relation to the Settlement Class proposed under the Settlement Agreement. FED. R. Civ. P. 23(a)(3). d. Adequacy. Plaintiff and Plaintiffs Counsel have demonstrated "[t]he representative parties will fairly and adequately protect the interests of the class" for the purposes of the proposed Settlement Class. FED. R. Civ. P. 23(a)(4). In addition, because the Court finds Plaintiff, John Cecil, to be an adequate representative of the Settlement Class, and Plaintiffs Counsel The Lanier Law Firm (Reagan Bradford and Mark Lanier) and Rex A. Sharp, P.A. (Rex Sharp and Barbara Frankland) to be adequate Class Counsel under Rule 23(a)(4) and (g)(1-4) for the Settlement Class, the Court hereby appoints Plaintiff as Class Representative; and Plaintiffs Counsel The Lanier Law Firm (Reagan Bradford and Mark Lanier) and Rex A. Sharp, P.A. (Rex Sharp and Barbara Frankland) as Settlement Class Counsel for the Settlement Class. 4. The Court also finds the requirements of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23(b)(3) are met in the context of this Settlement Class: C! i 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 56 of 140 a. Predominance. Class Representative has shown "questions of law or fact common to the members of the [Settlement] Class predominate over any questions affecting only individual members." FED. R. Civ. P. 23(b)(3). b. Superiority. Class Representative has also established the resolution of the Litigation pursuant to the Settlement Agreement and settlement "is superior to other available methods for the fair and efficient adjudication of the controversy" FED. R. Civ. P. 23(b)(3). In sum, the Court finds the Settlement Class should be certified for the purposes of this proposed class settlement, as the Settlement Class meets all certification requirements of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23 for a settlement class. The Settlement Class is certified for settlement purposes only. In determining whether the requirements of Rule 23 have been satisfied for purposes of certifying the above class for settlement purposes, the Court has taken into account the fact of settlement and its impact upon the factors required for certification of the Settlement Class. Among other impacts of settlement, the Court need not inquire whether the case, if tried, would present intractable case management problems since the result of settlement is that there will be no trial. Because this case has been settled at this stage of the proceedings, the Court does not reach, and makes no ruling either way, as to the issue of whether the Settlement Class certified by agreement here for settlement purposes could have ever been certified in this case as a class for litigation purposes. 5. The Court preliminarily finds: (i) the proposed Settlement Agreement resulted from extensive arm's-length negotiations; (ii) the proposed Settlement Agreement was agreed to only after Class Counsel had conducted legal research, extensive discovery, and expert analysis regarding the strengths and weakness of Class Representative and the Class' claims; G 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 57 of 140 (iii) Class Representative and Class Counsel have concluded that the proposed Settlement Agreement is fair, reasonable, and adequate; and (iv) the proposed Settlement is sufficiently fair, reasonable, and adequate to warrant sending notice of the proposed Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement to the Settlement Class. 6. Having considered the essential terns of the Settlement Agreement under the recognized standards for preliminary approval as set forth in the relevant jurisprudence, the Court preliminarily approves the Settlement Agreement, subject to the right of any member of the Settlement Class to challenge the fairness, reasonableness, and adequacy of the Settlement, Settlement Agreement, Allocation Methodology, or proposed Initial Plan of Allocation (or any other Plan of Allocation), and to show cause, if any exists, why a Final Judgment dismissing the Litigation based on the Settlement Agreement should not be ordered after adequate notice to the members of the Settlement Class has been given in conformity with this Order. As such, the Court finds that those Settlement Class Members whose claims would be settled, compromised, dismissed, and released pursuant to the Settlement Agreement should be given notice and an opportunity to be heard regarding final approval of the Settlement Agreement and other matters. 7. The Court further preliminarily approves the form and content of the proposed Notice of Settlement, attached to the Settlement Agreement as Exhibits 3 and 4, respectively. The Court finds Exhibit 3, the notice to be mailed, and Exhibit 4, the notice to be published, are the best notice practicable under the circumstances, constitute due and sufficient notice to all persons and entities entitled to receive such notice, and fully satisfy the requirements of applicable laws, including due process and Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23. The Court finds the form and content of the Notice of Settlement fairly and adequately, among other matters: (i) P 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 58 of 140 summarizes the terms and effect of the Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement; (ii) notifies the Class that Plaintiff will seek Plaintiffs Attorneys' Fees, reimbursement of Litigation Expenses, and a Case Contribution Award for Class Representative's services; (iii) notifies the Class of the time and place of the Final Fairness Hearing as initially set by the Court; (iv) describes the procedure for requesting exclusion from the Settlement; and (v) describes the procedure for objecting to the Settlement or any part thereof. 8. The Court also preliminarily approves the proposed manner of communicating the Notice of Settlement to the Class, as set out below, and finds that it is the best notice practicable under the circumstances, constitutes due and sufficient notice to all persons and entities entitled to receive such notice, and fully satisfies applicable Constitutional standards and the requirements of other applicable laws, including due process and Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23: a. Within 45 days after entry of the Preliminary Approval Order, or as otherwise ordered by the Court, the Settlement Administrator will mail (or cause to be mailed) the Notice of Settlement, Exhibit 3, by first class mail to all Class Members who have been identified after reasonable efforts to do so. The Notice of Settlement will be mailed to Class Members using the royalty paydeck data described in paragraph 3.3 of the Settlement Agreement and any updated addresses found by the Settlement Administrator. For wells currently operated by Defendant, the Notice of Settlement will be mailed to Class Members using Defendant's December 2017 royalty paydeck data. For non -operated wells where Defendant separately marketed gas, the Settlement Administrator will mail the Notice of Settlement based on reasonably current royalty owner names and addresses which are reasonably available and produced from the well 7 1 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 59 of 140 operator. For wells that have been sold or are no longer producing, the Settlement Administrator will mail the Notice of Settlement to the last known royalty owners based on electronic data reasonably available to Defendant. The Settlement Administrator will also publish the summary form of the Notice of Settlement as described below. It is not reasonable or economically practical for the Parties to do more to determine the names and addresses of Class Members. b. Within 10 days after mailing of the first Notice of Settlement, the Settlement Administrator also shall publish (or cause to be published) the Notice of Settlement, Exhibit 4, once in each of the following newspapers: (1) The Oklahoman, a paper of general circulation in Oklahoma; (2) The Tulsa World, a paper of general circulation in Oklahoma; (3) The Muskogee Phoenix, a paper of local circulation; and (4) The McAlester News Capital & Democrat, a paper of local circulation. C. Within 10 days after mailing the first Notice of Settlement, Exhibit 3, and through the Final Fairness Hearing, the Settlement Administrator will also display (or cause to be displayed) on an Internet website dedicated to this Settlement the following documents, among other documents the Settlement Administrator may determine to post on the site: (1) the Notice of Settlement, (2) the last amended Complaint and Answer, (if there is one), (3) the Settlement Agreement, and (4) the Preliminary Approval Order. d. Defendant shall advance half of the Administration, Notice, and Distribution Costs up to $750,000.00 in accordance with the Settlement Agreement. Plaintiffs Counsel shall advance the other half (i.e., each shall advance up to $375,000.00). 3 I 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 60 of 140 9. In keeping with the Court's approval of the form, content, and manner for the Notice of Settlement, any future communications concerning the Settlement of this Litigation shall be approved by the Court prior to their distribution to Class Members. This provision does not apply to Defendant's payment of royalty or other communications made in the usual and ordinary course of its business. 10. The Court appoints JND Legal .Administration to act as Settlement Administrator and perform the associated responsibilities set forth in the Settlement Agreement. The Settlement Administrator will receive and process any Requests for Exclusion and, if the Settlement Agreement and resulting Settlement are finally approved by the Court, will supervise and administer the Settlement in accordance with the Settlement Agreement, the Judgment, and the Court's Plan of Allocation order(s) authorizing distribution of the Net Settlement Fund to Class Members. The Parties and their counsel shall not be liable for any act or omission of the Settlement Administrator. 11. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23(e), a Final Fairness Hearing shall be held on , 2018 at .M. in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Oklahoma, the Honorable Ronald A. White presiding, to, among other related matters: a. determine whether the Settlement Agreement should be approved by the Court as fair, reasonable, and adequate and in the best interests of the Class; b. determine whether the notice method utilized: (i) constituted the best practicable notice under the circumstances and applicable legal standards; (ii) constituted notice reasonably calculated, under the circumstances, to apprise Class Members of the pendency of the Litigation, the proposed Settlement Agreement and the 7 f 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 61 of 140 Settlement contemplated therein, their right to exclude themselves from the Settlement, their right to object to the Settlement, and their right to appear at the Final Fairness Hearing; (iii) was reasonable and constituted due, adequate, and sufficient notice to all persons and entities entitled to such notice; and (iv) met applicable Constitutional standards and all applicable requirements of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and any other applicable law; C. determine whether the Judgment should be entered pursuant to the Settlement Agreement dismissing the Litigation against Defendant with prejudice and extinguishing, releasing, and barring all Released Claims against all Released Parties, and making the other findings and rulings provided therein, all in accordance with the Settlement Agreement; d. determine the proper method of allocation and distribution of the Net Settlement Fund among Class Members who are part of the Settlement Class; e. determine whether the applications for Plaintiffs Attorneys' Fees, for reimbursement of Litigation Expenses, and for a Case Contribution Award to Class Representative are fair and reasonable and should be approved; and f. rule on such other matters as the Court may deem appropriate. 12. The Court reserves the right to adjourn, continue to a future date, and/or reconvene the Final Fairness Hearing, or any aspect thereof (including the consideration of the application for Plaintiffs Attorneys' Fees and reimbursement of Litigation Expenses), without further notice to the Settlement Class of the revised hearing date. The Court may also approve the Settlement Agreement at or after the Final Fairness Hearing without notice to the Settlement Class of any revised hearing date. The Settlement Administrator will update the 10 1 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 04/13/18 Page 62 of 140 . website maintained pursuant to paragraph 8(c) of this Order to reflect the current information about the date and time for the Final Fairness Hearing, so that those persons interested in attending the Final Fairness Hearing may check the Settlement website for updated information regarding the date of the Final Fairness Hearing. 13. Class Members wishing to exclude themselves from the Settlement Class must submit to the Settlement Administrator a valid and timely Request for Exclusion. Requests for Exclusion must include: (i) the Class Member's name, address, telephone number, and notarized signature; (ii) a statement that the Class Member wishes to be excluded from the Settlement Class in Cecil v. BP, Case No. 16 -CV -00410 -RAW (E.D. Okla.); and (iii) a description of the Class Member's interest in any Oklahoma wells where Defendant, including its predecessors or affiliates, is or was the operator or, as a non -operator, Defendant separately marketed gas, including the name, well number, county in which the well is located, and the owner identification number. All Requests for Exclusion must be mailed to the Settlement Administrator by United States Certified Mail, return receipt requested, using the address for the Settlement Administrator shown in the Notice of Settlement. Each Request for Exclusion must be mailed in sufficient time that it is received by the Settlement Administrator by , 2018, unless such deadline is changed or altered by order of this Court. The Settlement Administrator is directed to in turn promptly email each Request for Exclusion it receives to Plaintiff's Counsel and Defendant's Counsel, using email addresses each set of counsel will provide to the Settlement Administrator. The Settlement Administrator is directed to file the Requests for Exclusion with the Court prior to the date of the Final Fairness Hearing. Requests for Exclusion may not be submitted through the website or by phone, facsimile, or email. A Request for Exclusion shall be effective after the Court approves its sufficiency in connection 11 6:16-cv-00410-RAW Document 171-1 Filed in ED/OK on 0413/18 Page 63 of 140 with its final approval order and judgment. Any member of the Settlement Class that has not timely and properly filed a Request for Exclusion shall be a Class Member and shall be bound by the terms of the Settlement Agreement and the resulting Settlement if the Court finally approves the Settlement Agreement. 14.

BP AMERICA PRODUCTION COMPANY (including affiliated predecessors and affiliated successors), Defendant. Civil Action No. 16 -CV- 410 -KEW PLAINTIFF'S ORIGINAL CLASS ACTION COMPLAINT John Cecil ("Plaintiff'), on behalf of himself and the Class of all other persons similarly situated, files this Original Class Action Complaint against BP America Production Company (`BP"), and alleges and states as follows: SUMMARY OF ACTION 1. Plaintiff and the Class bring claims against BP concerning BP's actual, knowing and willful underpayment or non-payment of royalties on natural gas and/or constituents of the gas stream produced from wells through improper accounting methods (such as not paying on the starting price for gas products but instead taking improper deductions) and by failing to account for and pay royalties, all as more fully described below. JURISDICTION AND VENUE 2. This Court has original jurisdiction over the claims asserted in this complaint pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1332(d) because this is a class action where the amount in controversy exceeds the sum of $5,000,000 and because Plaintiff and BP are citizens of different states. 6:16-cv-00410-KEW Document 2 Filed in ED/OK on 09/28/16 Page 2 of 24 3. Venue is proper in this District pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1391 because BP transacts business and is found within this District, and/or has agents within this District, and a substantial part of the events giving rise to the claims asserted herein occurred in this District. PARTIES 4. Plaintiff is a citizen and resident of Oklahoma. Plaintiff owns a royalty interest in in a BP operated well that produces gas. 5. BP is a corporation organized under Delaware law with its principal place of business in Texas and may be served with process by serving its registered agent, The Corporation Company, 1833 S. Morgan Road, Oklahoma City, OK 73128. 6. BP is in the business of producing and marketing gas and constituent products from the wells in which Class members hold royalty interests. 7. The typical royalty payment is between 1/8th and 3/16th of a well's revenue. 8. BP and its affiliated predecessors, successors, and current and past employees, agents, representatives, attorneys, or others acting on their behalf and all those to whose prior leasehold interests they have succeeded and for whom they are legally liable whether by merger, assignment, or otherwise shall herein collectively be known as "Defendant" or `BP" 9. The acts charged in this Complaint as having been done by BP were authorized, ordered, or done by officers, agents, affiliates, employees, or representatives, while actively engaged in the conduct or management of BP's business or affairs, and within the scope of their employment or agency with BP. 2 6:16-cv-00410-KEW Document 2 Filed in ED/OK on 09/28/16 Page 3 of 24 CLASS ACTION ALLEGATIONS 10. Plaintiff brings this action on behalf of himself and as a class action pursuant to Rule 23(a) and (b)(3) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure on behalf of the following class (the "Class"): All persons who are royalty owners in Oklahoma wells where BP (including its affiliated predecessors and affiliated successors) is or was the operator (or a working interest owner who marketed its share of gas and directly paid royalties to the royalty owners) from January 1, 1993 to the date Class Notice is given. The Class claims relate to royalty payments for gas and its constituents (such as residue gas, natural gas liquids, helium, nitrogen, or drip condensate). Excluded from the Class are: (1) agencies, departments or instrumentalities of the United States of America, including but not limited to the U.S. Department of the Interior (the United States, Indian tribes, and Indian allottees); (2) the State of Oklahoma or any of its agencies or departments that own royalty interests; (3) BP, its affiliates, predecessors, and employees, officers, and directors; (4) any publicly traded company or its affiliated entity that produces, gathers, processes, or markets gas; (5) the claims of royalty owners to the extent covered by arbitration clauses or prior settlement agreements, if any, still in effect at the time suit was filed herein; (6) overriding royalty owners and others whose interest was carved out from the lessee's interest; (7) royalty owners who have already filed and still have pending lawsuits for underpayment of royalties against BP at the time suit is filed herein; (8) royalty owners only to the extent they take gas in-kind, if any; and, (8) royalty owners only to the extent receiving "Blanchard" payments. 11. The members of the Class are so numerous and geographically dispersed that joinder of all members is impracticable. 12. BP operates or has operated thousands of Class Wells that produce gas. BP holds a working interest in these Wells, with at least one, and usually multiple, royalty owners for each well. 13. BP has within its possession or control records that identify all persons to whom it (including affiliated predecessors and those for whom it is legally responsible) has paid royalties from Class Wells during the Class Period. 6:16-cv-00410-KEW Document 2 Filed in ED/OK on 09/28/16 Page 4 of 24 14. The questions of fact or law common to Plaintiff and the Class include, without limitation, one or more of the following: a. Whether the Plaintiff and members of the Class are beneficiaries of the implied Marketable Condition Rule (MCR) which requires BP to sever the gas from the ground and to prepare the gas for market at BP's sole expense? If so, whether: 1) the Midstream Costs of gathering, compression, dehydration, treatment, and processing (GCDTP) are costs associated with preparing the gas for market such that none of them should have been deducted from royalties but all of them were; or 2) whether the market for gas occurs before GCDTP are incurred such that the Class's claim is only for excessive deductions of Midstream Costs? ii. If not, whether the Class members were party to a lease that expressly allows deduction of all of the GCDTP Midstream Costs ("Express Deduction Lease" or "ED Lease"), such that these Class members have a claim only for excessive deductions of Midstream Costs, and if so, whether the Midstream Costs actually deducted were excessive in amount? b. Whether BP paid royalty to Plaintiff and members of the Class for all valuable constituents coming from their wells and which inured to BP's benefit either: 1) through credit toward the Midstream Costs; or 2) by contractual consideration in- kind to a midstream company (such as drip condensate, helium, liquefied nitrogen, some percentage of residue, some percentage of fractionated NGLs, plant fuel, or FL&in? c. Whether BP (including any of its affiliates) paid royalty to Plaintiff and members of the Class based on a starting price below what BP or its affiliates received in arm's-length sales transactions? d. Can class -wide damages be calculated for Plaintiff's theories of liability? 15. Plaintiff is typical of other class members because BP pays royalty to Plaintiff and other Class members using a common method. BP pays royalty based on the net revenue BP receives under its gas contracts which terms royalty owners do not know or approve. The contracts are for services necessary to place the gas and its constituent parts into marketable condition so they can be sold into recognized, active, and competitive commercial markets. 6:16-cv-00410-KEW Document 2 Filed in ED/OK on 09/28/16 Page 5 of 24 16. Plaintiff will fairly and adequately protect the interests of the members of the Class. Plaintiff is a royalty owner to whom BP pays royalty. Plaintiff understands his duties as a Class representative. Plaintiff has retained counsel competent and experienced in class action and royalty owner litigation. 17. This action is properly maintainable as a class action. Common questions of law or fact exist as to all members of the Class and those common questions predominate over any questions solely affecting individual members of such Class. See ¶14 above. There is no need for individual Class members to testify in order to establish BP's liability to or damages sustained by Plaintiff and members of the Class. 18. Class action treatment is appropriate in this matter and is superior to the alternative of numerous individual lawsuits by members of the Class. Class action treatment will allow a large number of similarly situated individuals to prosecute their common claims in a single forum, simultaneously, efficiently, and without duplication of time, expense and effort on the part of those individuals, witnesses, the courts, and/or BP. Likewise, class action treatment will avoid the possibility of inconsistent and/or varying results in this matter arising out of the same facts. No difficulties are likely to be encountered in the management of this class action that would preclude its maintenance as a class action and no superior alternative forum exists for the fair and efficient adjudication of the claims of all Class members. 19. Class action treatment in this matter is further superior to the alternative of numerous individual lawsuits by all or some members of the Class. Joinder of all Class members would be either highly impracticable or impossible. And the amounts at stake for individual Class members, while significant in the aggregate, would be insufficient to enable them to retain 5 6:16-cv-00410-KEW Document 2 Filed in ED/OK on 09/28/16 Page 6 of 24 competent legal counsel to pursue claims individually. In the absence of a class action in this matter, BP will likely retain the benefit of its wrongdoing. GAS INDUSTRY BACKGROUND 20. The members of the. Class own royalty interests in wells that produce gas and constituents that are transformed into marketable products and sold into the established commercial markets for those products. 21. BP's method for calculating royalty to the members of the Class is subject to uniform accounting procedures and implied marketable product law. 22. Oklahoma law requires the lessee to bear all of the costs of placing gas and its constituents into "Marketable Condition" products. 23. Gas and its constituent parts are marketable products only when they are in the physical condition to be bought and sold in a commercial marketplace. 24. Only after a given product is marketable does a royalty owner have to pay its proportionate share of the reasonable costs to get a higher enhanced value or price for that particular product. The Lessor -Lessee Relationship 25. The lessor owns minerals, including oil and gas; the lessee has the money, labor, and know-how to extract, condition, and market those minerals. The lessor and lessee enter into a lease that allows the lessee to take the minerals from the lessor's land. The usual revenue split from a well was 1/8th to the lessor (royalty owner) and 7/8ths to the lessee. As the risk of finding oil and gas has diminished over time, due to the prevalence of wells delineating the field, better seismic technology, and increased efficiency of drilling rigs, royalty owners on more recent leases have received 3/16th or even 1/4th of the revenue. 0 6:16-cv-00410-KEW Document 2 Filed in ED/OK on 091G8/16 Page 7 of 24 26. But, the oil and gas companies have used undisclosed internal accounting practices to try to keep for themselves as much of the well revenue as possible. These accounting practices are at the heart of every oil and gas royalty case. 27. Rather than adopting transparency in its royalty calculation formula, BP, like most lessees, has guarded its production and accounting processes as confidential or proprietary, thereby, depriving the royalty owners of information necessary to understand how BP calculates royalties. Consequently, the royalty owner is unaware of the lessee's actual practices, thereby enabling the lessee to breach the oil and gas lease without accountability. 28. If and when one or more of the royalty owners learn of the "breach", the royalty owner has only three (3) — all poor — options: (1) confront the lessee and maybe get paid while the lessee continues to retain improperly garnered gas revenues from thousands of other unknowing royalty owners; (2) do nothing since the "breach" only results in a modest yearly loss and the expense of individual litigation would exceed the recovery, if any; or (3) file a class action lawsuit which will persist for years and probably will not recover the full loss. in short, if the lessee breaches, it may never be held accountable; and if a royalty owner complains, the lessee will still come out ahead because an individual case is not worth much and a class action rarely requires 100% repayment to royalty owners plus -prejudgment interest, plus attorneys' fees and expenses. The class action is the best of the three options, hence this suit. Residue Gas, Helium, Nitrogen and Natural Gas Liquids Production 29. The gas is gathered from each well, dehydrated and compressed, through underground gathering lines crossing many miles of land to processing plants where the raw gas is transformed into two primary products --methane and fractionated natural gas liquids 7 6:16-cv-00410-KEW Document 2 Filed in ED/OK on 09/[8/16 Page 8 of 24 ("NGLs"). Once homogenized as fungible products, the residue gas and NGLs are sold in the commercial market. Wellhead (Basic Separation and Gas Measurement) 30.

Wells produce oil, gas, and a host of other products, such as water, helium, nitrogen, etc., all mixed together in the gas stream. r After the stream comes out of the ground, it enters the free water knockout (a/k/a three-phase separator) which separates the products by gravity, water at the bottom, oil in the middle, and gas going out the top. Due to the low r Hydrocarbons can vary in chemical makeup (from simple methane to complex octane) and in form (from pure gaseous state to liquid condensate). The non -hydrocarbon makeup of the well - stream that includes natural gas can also include gases such as helium, sulfur, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen. This mixture of many gaseous elements and substances is often referred to as the "gas stream" or just "gas". 91 6:16-cv-00410-KEW Document 2 Filed in ED/OK on 09/28/16 Page 9 of 24 technology, the separator is not expensive (the "separation cost'). The gaseous mixture (with helium, nitrogen, NGLs, and other gaseous substances) passes from the separator into the gas tine.2 The remaining fluid goes through the heater -treater where heat, gravity segregation, chemical additives and electric current break down the mixture more clearly in oil and water. The heater -treater is installed, maintained and takes fuel to operate (the "heater -treater cost'). The water is drained off and sent for salt water disposal. The oil that is separated at the wellhead is collected in a tank, usually trucked out and sold (the payment of oil royalties is not at issue in this lawsuit). 32. Since production over time depletes the pressure of a well, on rare occasion, on - lease compressors are installed to suction gas out of the well or to move the gaseous mixture down the gathering lines. But when they are installed, their use requires fuel (the "on -lease compression' or "vacuum compression" cost). 33. The gaseous mixture produced from a single well cannot be processed economically, so the mixtures from many wells are "gathered" together through gathering lines and delivered to a processing plant for transformation into marketable products and sale into commercial markets. This results in a gathering cost (G). The below diagram provides an overview of the process. BP does not improperly deduct from royalty any of the costs before the gathering line inlet. 2 A minute portion of this raw gas may be used on a few leased lands to heat the farm house pursuant to a free gas clause in the lease. Although title transfers to the gas, it is not a sale. Some producers sell less than 3% of the raw gas to a local irrigator during the summer months for agricultural purposes, but this is not the economic market for which the wells are drilled. i7 6:16-cv-00410-KEW Document 2 Filed in ED/OK on 09/28/16 Page 10 of 24 Midstream Service Costs (GCDTP) w.in.+dz w.+�mss IT _ wdu.+ea 1 i ;.. _ O GaMerinR dine InIM ©Plm�t Inlet 555 yak 0c1.1s 1 LNga1m G4�rP GMpm Ciap, prc+awm 1 kiwdntim d Pn+s.u�g Upstream Midstream Services Residue Gas 34. As the gaseous mixture from each well enters the gathering line, it flows into a meter run where the mixture is measured for both volume (in Mcf) and quality (Btu content) (combined, "gas measurement," in MMBtu). The meter run must be constantly maintained to record accurate measurements. 35. Gathering pipelines are usually made of metal that could be corroded by water vapor (and other corrosive gases) in the gaseous mixture, so a glycol dehydrator is used to remove the water vapor. This results in a dehydration cost (D). 36. Gas will not move downstream from the well unless it is pressurized sufficiently to overcome the in-line back pressure and friction in the gathering line. So large gas compressors 10 6:16-cv-00410-KEW Document 2 Filed in ED/OK on 09/28/16 Page 11 of 24 are installed to move the gas from the gathering line inlet to the processing plant. These compressors are expensive and require fuel to operate. This results in a compression cost (C). 37. The gathering pipelines themselves cost money to lay and maintain, though most have been in place for decades. Gas condensate (gas condensed into liquid as it cools and is pressurized) ("Drip Condensate") is collected at points along the gathering lines as a result of cleaning or "pigging the line" and is captured for fractionation and sale later. Generally lessees pay no royalty on the revenue generated from the sale of the drip condensate. 38. Finally, gathering lines leak, especially as they age, resulting in lost and unaccounted for gas ("L&U"). Lessees pay no royalty on the volume of L&U. Natural Gas Processing 39. Once a sufficient amount of the gas mixture from multiple wells (and often from multiple gathering systems) is gathered, the mixture enters the inlet of the processing plant where the mixture will be transformed into methane and mixed NGLs. 40. Lessees, such as BP, use gas processing plants that either they or a third -party own. Usually an unrelated third party owns the processing plant but the plant may also be owned in whole or in part by a lessee. 41. The plant removes impurities that remain in the mixture, such as carbon dioxide, nitrogen, or sulfur, before the mixture can be processed. This incurs a "treatment cost" (T)). 42. The final cost, processing (P), involves services to transform the gas mixture into methane gas (also called "residue gas"), NGLs raw make, and in the Panhandle of Oklahoma, crude helium. 11 6:16-cv-00410-KEW Document 2 Filed in ED/OK on 09/28/16 Page 12 of 24 a. Methane must meet the quality standards for long-haul pipeline transmission set by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC") which is called "pipeline quality gas". b. The raw make NGLs are used as a feedstock in the petrochemical and oil refining industries; they are a more valuable commodity than methane. To separate the NGLs from the gaseous mixture, they are cooled to temperatures lower than minus 150°F (the "Cryogenic or cooling process"). The NGLs move into a liquids pipeline and processed by a fractionator into their marketable products: ethane; propane; butanes; and pentanes plus. In the gas contracts, this process incurs a "T&F" or "fractionation" fee, even though lessees sometimes give away the NGLs in keep -whole agreements as consideration for other services the midstream company provides. C. Helium is processed into Grade A helium at new processing plants or into crude helium (contaminated with nitrogen) at older plants which is then processed into Grade A helium at a nearby helium processor (often a few hundred feet away). 43. This total processing system involves expensive equipment and requires fuel to operate (collectively, the "processing charge" and/or "plant fuel'). Lessees do not pay royalty on plant fuel, even though it comes from Class Wells. 44. At the tailgate of the processing plant, at least two products emerge: (1) residue gas (or methane gas); and, (2) NGLs (usually a mixture of NGLs, known as "raw make" or "Y" grade). In helium rich production areas, Grade A or crude helium, along with liquefied nitrogen also emerges. But none of these products are commercially marketable at that point. 12 f / 6:16-cv-00410-KEW Document 2 Filed in ED/OK on 09/28/16 Page 13 of 24 Marketable Condition for the Products 45. Methane Gas. Methane gas (or residue gas) is commercial quality (a/k/a "pipeline quality") at the tailgate of the processing plant only after it is further pressurized to enter the transmission line by a booster compressor (the "booster compression" cost). 46. NGLs. The raw mixture of NGLs at the tailgate of the processing plant is not commercially marketable. It must be fractionated into commercially marketable products — ethane, propane, butane, isobutene, natural gasoline, etc. In computing royalty for NGLs, BP improperly deducts processing fees and/or other costs (such as transportation and fractionation, T&F) needed to reach commercially marketable fractionated NGLs. 47. Drip Condensate. Drip Condensate is recovered on the gathering lines and at the inlet to the processing plant, and is essentially in marketable condition when collected. 48. Other Products. In some areas of the country (Hugoton Field and Wyoming), helium is produced in commercial quantities and recovered, along with liquefied nitrogen. Other areas of the country produce sulfur and carbon dioxide in commercial quantities. When such products are available in commercial quantities, processing and treatment plants recover these valuable constituents but lessees pay little or nothing to the royalty owners. Royalty owners should be paid for the gas and all constituents taken. Sale of Products 49. To turn the marketable products into money, the producer sells them (or contracts to have them sold) in the commercial market place in an arm's length transaction. No money exchanges hands until the residue gas is sold at the Index pool, the fractionated NGLs at OPIS, and any other marketable products at the prices established by their respective commercial markets. Lessees attempt to obscure this fact with self-serving language in gas marketing 13 r 6:16-cv-00410-KEW Document 2 Filed in ED/OK on 09/28/16 Page 14 of 24 contracts about title transfer or even by creating a wholly owned affiliate to manufacture a fictitious "sale" before the gas reaches commercial quality for sale. 50. The "starting price" for gas products is always achieved, as it must be, at a commercial market price. All of the gas contracts express the commercial market price in one of two ways: (a) a market price, called an "Index" price for residue gas and "OPIS" price for fractionated NGLs, or (b) a "weighted average sales price" or "WASP" achieved at the same residue Index market or OPIS market. The difference stems from BP's market power to, over time, obtain above "Index" or "OPIS" price in its arm's length sale. Whichever starting price is used in an arm's length transaction, that price is the highest and best reasonable price for the valuable gas products. If Other Products are also produced, they are and must be also priced in a commercial market. 51. Affiliate gas contracts are not arm's length sales in a commercial market. Instead, the later arm's-length sale by the affiliate in the commercial market is the true sale that should be used as the "starting price" for marketable condition gas products. a. Some lessees contract with affiliated gathering companies or other affiliated gas service providers before the products (residue gas and/or NGLs) are in Marketable Condition in an effort to: (1) artificially, and improperly, create a commercial market where none truly exists so they may justify deducting costs from royalty, or not paying for all of the gas or constituent products produced; (2) charge "marketing fees" to royalty owners even though the lessee is already obligated under the lease to prepare the gas for market and market the gas and constituent products; and/or (3) pay on the lower lessee/affiliate sale price and not the higher affiliate/third party price. 14 1 � 6:16-cv-00410-KEW Document 2 Filed in ED/OK on 09/28/16 Page 15 of 24 b. WASP involves a pool of sales transactions to third parties (and/or affiliates) and combines the prices paid by those third parties (and/or affiliates) to arrive at a "weighted average sales price." Lessees can manipulate this process by using lower lessee/affiliate sales prices for part of the pool price, rather than all third party arm's length sale prices. 52. Fictitious "sales" are created by lessees in an effort to pass off a non-commercial market sale as if it should be the starting point for royalty payments. But none of those efforts comport with economic reality or are in good faith with respect to royalty owners. For instance: a. Anything of value can be sold at any place and in any condition. i. Gas and other minerals can and are routinely sold in the ground, but they are not in marketable condition. ii. Gas could be sold at the bottom of the hole when it is severed from the surrounding rock and enters the downhole pipe. Although a contract driller might be willing to accept some percentage of the future sale of oil or gas in the real marketplace as compensation for his drilling services, that agreement does not make the transaction a real market sale. iii. Gas could be sold "at the wellhead" when the gas is severed from the surface. Although a contract operator might be willing to accept some percentage of the future sale of oil or gas in the real marketplace as compensation for his well operating services, that transaction does not make it a real market sale. iv. Gas also could be sold at the gathering line inlet when the gas enters the gathering line and changes custody. Although a contract gatherer might be willing to accept some percentage of the future sale of gas in the real marketplace as 15 6:16-cv-00410-KEW Document 2 Filed in ED/OK on 09/28/16 Page 16 of 24 compensation for his gathering services, that transaction does not make it a real market sale. V. Gas also could be sold at the processing plant inlet when the gas changes custody to the processing plant. Although a contract processor might be willing to accept some percentage of the future sale of gas in the real marketplace as compensation for his processing services, that transaction does not make it a real market sale. The lessee could simply pay for all of these services with monetary fees or in-kind contributions of all or part of the valuable constituents. But the structure of the transaction does not change the fact that the services are necessary to prepare the gas and valuable constituents for the first real sale into the commercial market — Index or OPTS. b. Nor does a contract saying title transfers at a custody transfer point create a sale of marketable products in a real commercial market. Some gas contracts with Midstream companies that provide GCDTP services purport to do that, but other parts of the gas contract demonstrate that it is a legal sleight of hand as (i) the risk of loss that usually passes with a true title transfer and market sale does not happen; (ii) the cost of future downstream services that usually passes with a true title transfer and market sale does not happen; (iii) the starting price which would occur with a true title transfer and market sale does not happen. Indeed, the paper title transfer is unnecessary to receiving the Midstream services as the gas could receive the exact same Midstream service without the paper title transfer. 16 { 6:16-cv-00410-KEW Document 2 Filed in ED/OK on 09/28/16 Page 17 of 24 c. All of the gas contracts implicitly recognize this paper title transfer fiction, as the starting price for gas products always is at the Index and OPIS market pool as previously described. d. Midstream services providers are not buyers and resellers of raw gas. They are service providers that convert raw gas into pipeline quality gas so it can enter the Index or OPIS market pools. Different Ways BP Underpays Royalty Owners 53. The extraordinarily large dollars at stake and the one-sided nature of the gas lessor -lessee relationship are constant temptations to lessees to wrongfully retain gas revenues. All payment formulas, affiliate and non -affiliate contractual relationships, and all calculations are exclusively in the control of lessees, and they involve undisclosed accounting and operational practices. As a result, there are many ways royalty owners are underpaid on their royalty interests, and they never know it. The common thread through all of these schemes is that they are typically buried in the internal lessee accounting systems or royalty -payment formulas. 54. BP represents the royalty calculation on the form of a monthly check stub it sends each royalty owner. The check stub shows each royalty owner's interest and taxes (which are not in dispute here), and volume, price, deductions, and value, all of which are disputed. 55. BP underpays royalty to Plaintiff and other Class Members in one or more of the following ways: a. Residue Gas. The starting price paid for residue gas should be an arm's length, third party market sales price for residue gas at pipeline quality. All of BP's gas contracts will show this to be true. But, instead of paying on that gross competitive price, BP pays on a net price after directly taking or allowing 17 I / 6:16-cv-00410-KEW Document 2 Filed in ED/OK on 09/x8/16 Page 18 of 24 midstream companies to indirectly take Midstream Services deductions (both monetary fees and in-kind volumetric deductions). b. NGLs. The starting price paid for fractionated NGLs should be an arm's length, third party market sales price for ethane, propane, normal butane, iso -butane, and pentane plus (a/k/a natural gasoline). All of BP's gas contracts will show this to be true. But instead of paying on that gross competitive price, BP pays royalty (i) for only some of the NGLs produced (some is lost and unaccounted for in the gathering process, lost in plant fuel or compression fuel); (ii) after deducting processing fees and expenses (often keeping in-kind a Percentage of the Proceeds ("POP") of the fractionated NGLs as payment for the processing services); and, (iii) after reducing payment by T&F. c. Drip Condensate. Plaintiff and Class Members' wells produce heavy hydrocarbons that condense in the pipeline. BP (or a third -party on behalf of BP (gatherers and/or processors)) recovers those hydrocarbons for sale. BP fails to pay any royalty for that Drip Condensate. d. Other Products. Helium is contained in the well -stream produced from Plaintiff's and many Class Members' wells, but BP: (i) fails to pay royalty for all of the helium produced (some is lost and unaccounted for in the gathering and processing process); (ii) deducts processing fees and costs even though the helium is not yet in commercial grade; and (iii) pays at a lower than commercial Grade A price. Often times, BP does not pay any royalty at all for Helium, for liquid nitrogen, or other products taken from Plaintiff s and the Class Members' wells. 18 6:16-cv-00410-KEW Document 2 Filed in ED/OK on 09/28/16 Page 19 of 24 56. BP underpays all other Class Members, from whom BP is legally entitled to deduct post -production Midstream Services Costs, by taking excessive deductions under Midstream Services Contracts that allow excessive monopoly charges for GCDTP services. ACTUAL, KNOWING AND WILLFUL UNDERPAYMENT OR NON-PAYMENT OF ROYALTIES 57. The underpayment and non-payment of royalties are done with BP's actual and willful knowledge and intent. 58. In fact, BP has settled similar claims on a non -class basis in Oklahoma, yet only doing so for those that asserted their claims individually. This allows BP to quiet the "squeaky wheels" while continuing its improper practices as to all others and reaping millions of dollars in improper proceeds. 59. In addition, BP is well familiar with the fact that virtually all other producers in Oklahoma have resolved the same claims for hundreds of millions, if not billions, of dollars. 60. Nevertheless, BP continues its improper payment practices with actual and willful knowledge and intent. COUNT I — BREACH OF LEASE 61. Plaintiff and the Class incorporate by reference the allegations in all other paragraphs of this Complaint as if fully set forth in this section. 62. Plaintiff and the other Class Members entered into written, fully executed, oil and gas leases with BP, and those leases include implied covenants requiring BP to prepare the gas and its constituent parts for market at BP's sole cost. The leases also place upon BP the obligation to properly account for and pay royalty interests to royalty owners under the mutual benefit rule and good faith and fair dealing. 19 I / 6:16-cv-00410-KEW Document 2 Filed in ED/OK on 09/28/16 Page 20 of 24 63. At all material times, Plaintiff and the Class have performed their terms and obligations under the leases. 64. BP breached the leases, including the implied covenants, by its actions and/or inactions in underpaying royalty or not paying royalty on all products sold from the gas stream. 65. As a result of BP's breaches, Plaintiff and the Class have been damaged through underpayment of the actual amounts due. COUNT II — BREACH OF FIDUCIARY DUTY 66. Plaintiff and the Class incorporate by reference the allegations in all other paragraphs of this Complaint as if fully set forth in this section. 67. The Class members have interests in Oklahoma wells that have united under 52 Okla. Stat. §§ 287.1-287.15 and/or 52 Okla. Stat. § 87.1. 68. A fiduciary duty was created and vested when BP (or its predecessor in interest) requested and received unitization orders from the Oklahoma Corporation Commission pursuant to those statutes. 69. BP is the unit operator by appointment from the Oklahoma Corporation Commission for Class members. 70. BP breached its fiduciary duty to the Class members by failing to properly report, account for, and distribute gas proceeds to the Class members for their proportionate royalty share of gas production. 71. As a direct and proximate result of BP's conduct in breaching its fiduciary duties, Class members are entitled to recover actual damages. 72. Plaintiff and the Class are also entitled to and seek pre judgment interest, post- judgment interest, attorneys' fees from the common fund, expenses, and costs. 20 f / 6:16-cv-00410-KEW Document 2 Filed in ED/OK on 09/28/16 Page 21 of 24 COUNTS III IV AND V — FRAUD, DECEIT, AND CONSTRUCTIVE FRAUD 73. Plaintiff and the Class incorporate by reference the allegations in all other paragraphs of this Complaint as if fully set forth in this section. 74. BP made uniform misrepresentations and/or omissions on the monthly check stubs sent to Class members reflecting the wrong volume and price, and not detailing all of the monetary fee and in-kind volumetric deductions. 75. As set forth above, BP made a material representation that was false and/or omitted to state one or more material facts needed to make what was stated not misleading. BP knew when the material representations were made on the check stubs that the statements were false or misleading and/or at least made recklessly without any knowledge of their truth, or made the statements with the intent that Plaintiff and the Class would rely on them. Plaintiff and the Class Members did rely on and/or are legally presumed to have relied upon these uniform written representations as being truthful and accurate, when they were not. Plaintiff and the Class Members suffered injury and were underpaid as a result. 76. BP also concealed or failed to disclose facts about the price, volume, value, various products produced, and deductions, which BP had a duty to disclose to avoid presenting half-truths or misrepresentations. 77. BP undertook the duty to properly account by making the statements in check stubs on a monthly basis to royalty owners. By speaking on the issue, BP had a duty to make full and fair disclosure of all relevant facts. This is especially so because BP had superior and/or specialized knowledge and/or access to information when compared to royalty owners. 78. BP knew that its representations or omissions on the monthly check stubs were at least ambiguous and created a false impression of the actual facts to the royalty owners. 21 r" 6:16-cv-00410-KEW Document 2 Filed in ED/OK on 09/28/16 Page 22 of 24 79. BP knew the facts were peculiarly within BP's knowledge and that the Class was not in a position to discover the facts pertaining to the proper volume, values, and constituents coming from their wells. Accordingly, having spoken on the subject matter, BP had a duty to make full and fair disclosure of all material facts such that its statements were not misleading, but did not. 80. BP was deceitful by suggesting, as a fact, that the volume, price, value and other statements were as set forth on the monthly check stubs when those statements were not true. BP knew the statements were not true, had no reasonable grounds for believing they were true, or gave only such information as was likely to mislead for want of the communication of the non - disclosed facts. 81. The misrepresentations and omissions were intentionally made. They were intended to suggest that the price was a third party commercial price without hidden deductions, the volumes were accurately measured without volumetric deductions, and that deductions would be shown on the check stub when in fact they were not. 82. By creating and mailing misleading check stubs to the Class, BP has fraudulently and deceitfully misled the Class into believing that the Class Members had been paid on the full value of the production from their wells. 83. BP acted intentionally or recklessly in disregard of the rights of Plaintiff and the Class Members, on a uniform basis, by not properly paying royalty owners, by deceiving them with check stubs that were misleading, and by failing to correct BP's royalty payment practices after being sued multiple times for underpaying royalties such that punitive damages should be awarded and that BP acted intentionally and with malice toward Plaintiff and the Class Members subjecting BP to punitive damages. 22 6:16-cv-00410-KEW Document 2 Filed in ED/OK on 09/28/16 Page 23 of 24 84. As a direct and proximate result of BP's deceit and fraud, Plaintiff and the Class were underpaid monthly for royalties and are entitled to recover actual and punitive damages. 85. In addition, the money wrongfully obtained by BP as a result of what should have been paid to Plaintiff and the Class should be held in constructive trust along with monetary interest for Plaintiff and the Class. PRAYER FOR RELIEF WHEREFORE, Plaintiff prays for an Order and Judgment against BP as follows: a. That the Court determine that this action may be maintained as a class action under Rule 23(a) and (b)(3) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and direct that reasonable notice of this action, as provided by Rule 23(c)(2) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, be given to members of the Class; b. Appointing Plaintiff as the class representative, and Plaintiff's Counsel as class counsel; c. Awarding Plaintiff and the Class damages for actual damages for breach of lease, and interest at the highest allowable rate (such as lawful, equitable, or internal rate of return), as well as compensatory and punitive damages for breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, deceit, and constructive fraud; d. Granting Plaintiff and the Class the costs of prosecuting this action together with reasonable attorney's fees out of the recovery; e. Granting such other relief as this Court may deem just, equitable and proper. DEMAND FOR JURY TRIAL Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 38(b), Plaintiff requests a jury trial on all matters so triable. 23 6:16-cv-00410-KEW Document 2 Filed in ED/OK on 09/28/16 Page 24 of 24 Respectfully Submitted, s/ Reagan E.
