Dickenson County, Virginia, Deed Book 25, page 476. Tract 10 in this deed overlies a portion of

Tract 11. The Court has previously entered an Order quieting title to the gas estate under Tract

10. As used in this Order, Tract 11 means that portion ofTract 11 that lies outside of Tract 10.

Among other things, the proposed Settletnent Agreement resolves the competing claims

of ownership as follows;

Title to Tract II: The parties agree that they are undivided owners of the

gas estate on Tract 11 in the following percentages: 25% Weyerhaeuser

Company, 25% Range, 50%a Trustee.

Title to Tract 4: The parties agtee that Range and the Trustee are

undivided owners of the gas estate on Tract 4 in the following percentages: 33%

Range, 67% Trustee.

The Trustee having published the proposed settlement as ordered by the Court,

there being no objections filed with'the Court, and it otherwise appearing proper to

approve the proposed settlement for all the reasons set forth in the Trustee's pleadings

and the pleadings of the other parties, it is hereby ORDERED that the proposed

Settlement Agreement is APPROVED and EFFECTIVE.

It is therefore ORDERED as follows:

1. The gas estate on Tract 11 is owned as follows:

Weyerhaeuser Company: 25% undivided interest;

Range: 25% undivided interest; and

Trustee: 50% undivided interest.
