CERTIFICATION OF APPLICANT
I, Spyglass Cedar Creek, LP. , the applicant in the above matter after being duly sworn upon oath hereby certify the following information in regard to this application:
South Dakota Codified Laws Section 1-40-27 provides:
"The secretary may reject an application for any permit filed pursuant to Titles 34A or 45, including any application by any concentrated swine feeding operation for authorization to operate under a general permit, upon making a specific finding that:
(1) The applicant is unsuited or unqualified to perform the obligations of a permit holder based upon a finding that the applicant, any officer, director, partner, or resident general manager of the facility for which application has been made:
(a) Has intentionally misrepresented a material fact in applying for a permit;
(b) Has been convicted of a felony or other crime of moral turpitude;
(c) Has habitually and intentionally violated environmental laws of any state or the United States which have caused significant and material environmental damage;
(d) Has had any permit revoked under the environmental laws of any state or the United States;
(e) Has otherwise demonstrated through clear and convincing evidence of previous actions that the applicant lacks the necessary good character and competency to reliably carry out the obligations imposed by law upon the permit holder; or

My commission expires: — aC)
CERTIFICATE OF APPLICATE — FORM 13 PAGE 2
(2) The application substantially duplicates an application by the same applicant denied within the past five years which denial has not been reversed by a court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing in this subdivision may be construed to prohibit an applicant from submitting a new application for a permit previously denied, if the new application represents a good faith attempt by the applicant to correct the deficiencies that served as the basis for the denial in the original application.
All applications filed pursuant to Titles 34A and 45 shall include a certification, sworn to under oath and signed by the applicant, that he is not disqualified by reason of this section from obtaining a permit. In the absence of evidence to the contrary, that certification shall constitute a prima facie showing of the suitability and qualification of the applicant. If at any point in the application review recommendation, or hearing process, the secretary finds the applicant has intentionally made any material misrepresentation of fact in regard to this certification, consideration of the application may be suspended and the application may be rejected as provided for under this section.
Applications rejected pursuant to this section constitute final agency action upon that application and may be appealed to circuit court as provided for under chapter 1-26."
Pursuant to SDCL 1-40-27, I certify that I have read the forgoing provision of state law, and that I am not disqualified by reason of that provision from obtaining the permit for which application has been made.

Dear Ms. Dahl-
Per our previous conversations, the other associated parties on our call/ communication chain are aware; there are still conflicted legal positions with Spyglass Cedar Creek, LP and New Frontier Energy/ Samyak Verra/ Tristan Farel et-al, and whose operational responsibility it is to provide remedies to all of the well/ field issues that have been identified in your December 14, 2015 inspection report. In spite of the legal questions, it is as discussed Spyglass' goal to bring the 40 wells into compliance, rehabilitate the field and bring the project back on-line as soon as is feasible. Understanding that we feel there are legal question regarding New Frontier; In order to try and move forward we intend to try and do the following in response to your assessment of issues:

remove pit liner at surface, correct erosion issues.
Understanding that this is the beginning of the wet season and not looking to cause further road or surface site damage; it is our intention to have the majority of this completed by early June.
Additionally, Spyglass Cedar Creek is currently in discussion with a well-financed, experienced operator to potentially bring in as a partner to get the project rehabilitated, bring the wells into compliance and get the field back on-line. They are in the due-diligence portion of the potential partnership and once the partnership is formed, they/we will move quickly to start rebuilding the project and start to again develop and produce the minerals. Concurrently, we will continue to try and clear up the legal issues with New Frontier Exploration, who has caused so many legal and financial issues for us, the land owners and the State.
We expect this partnership to be made in the next 30 days or so and then our work will begin. As soon as we memorialize our agreements I would like to schedule a meeting to see how we can work together to get this project back on track.
Although mostly created by groups/ people not under our control I do sincerely regret that this situation has caused so much trouble for everyone. I look forward to trying to rebuild this project and having a long-lasting, good relationship with you, and the State of South Dakota.

1: Well statuses should be addressed by: requesting temporary abandonment status from the
DENR based on the performance of a successful mechanical integrity test, returning the well to
production, or plugging and abandoning the well in accordance with Administrative Rules of
South Dakota requirements.
2: Valves and gauges must be installed and maintained in good working order to permit pressure
readings to be obtained on both casing and tubing.

Dear Mr. Kimmel:
It has come to our attention that Spyglass Cedar Creek, LP (Spyglass) is addressing Bureau of
Land Management compliance issues concerning eight wells in Harding County, South Dakota,
that produce federal minerals. We want to remind you that Spyglass is the operator of record of
32 additional gas wells in South Dakota in addition to those eight that produce federal minerals.
As such, Spyglass is responsible for maintaining all 40 wells and ensuring they are in compliance
with South Dakota requirements. As we have advised you, or attempted to, on numerous
occasions over the past three years, all 40 wells are out of compliance and have been for quite
some time (see attached table).
We have been more than patient waiting for Spyglass to come to some kind of resolution on
these issues. However, our patience is worn thin and we now need to see some action on your
part. Failure to bring all 40 of Spyglass Cedar Creek’s Harding County wells into compliance
will force us to seriously consider enforcement. Possible enforcement actions include, but are not
necessarily limited to: requiring Spyglass Cedar Creek to permanently plug and abandon all
wells; revoking drilling/operating permits pursuant to SDCL 45-9-73; requiring additional bonds
sufficient to plug and reclaim each well site (which could amount to one million dollars or
more); levying monetary penalties up to $500 per day per violation (potentially tens of millions
of dollars); filing a lien against Spyglass Cedar Creek for costs associated with well plugging,
removal of equipment, and surface restoration; shutting down and sealing property by the
Secretary pursuant to 45-9-70; and requesting the Board of Minerals and Environment to act on
Spyglass’ bonds. To avoid enforcement we are requesting that you respond by January 31, 2016
with a plan outlining how and when you intend to bring wells into compliance.
If you have any questions or concerns you would like to discuss, please feel free to contact me at
605.773.4201.

Lucy Dahl

1: Well status should be addressed by: requesting temporary abandonment from the DENR based
on the performance of a successful mechanical integrity test, returning the well to production, or
plugging and abandoning the well in accordance with Administrative Rules of South Dakota
requirements.
2: Valves and gauges must be installed and maintained in good working order to permit pressure
readings to be obtained on both casing and tubing.

Spyglass Cedar Creek, LP
1919 NW Loop 410, Suite 200
San Antonio, TX 78213
Dear Mr. Kimmel:
Spyglass Cedar Creek, LP is the operator of record of forty (40) wells in South Dakota and as such, is responsible
for the maintenance of the wells and ensuring they are in compliance with the Administrative Rules of South Dakota
(ARSD 74:12). All forty wells are out of compliance. We have made several unsuccessful attempts to contact you in
regard to these issues over the past two years and were forced to recover your surface restoration bond from the
Texas unclaimed properties department.
On February 16 and August 23, 2012, I sent you letters warning Spyglass Cedar Creek to bring certain of its Harding
County wells into compliance by temporarily abandoning the wells. On June 6, 2012, I sent you a letter outlining
well site problems documented during routine inspections. In September, 2013, department inspectors documented
weed control and equipment cleanup problems at 14 Spyglass well sites.
The 40 wells listed in the table below have not produced since July, 2012. Therefore, Spyglass must either
temporarily abandon (TA) the wells, return the wells to production, or permanently plug and abandon the wells.
ARSD 74:12:03:03 requires operators to obtain written approval from the secretary for the temporary abandonment
of a well. A successful mechanical integrity test (MIT) must be conducted before temporary abandonment status will
be approved for any Spyglass well. Notify us in advance of any MIT’s so we can have an inspector on site to verify
results. If you intend to temporarily abandon these wells, you must file a sundry notice including a request for such
status and information on the current condition of each well. If you intend to plug any of these wells, a plugging plan
must be submitted for approval.
On March 13, 2014 a follow up inspection was performed on the 5-26 Gilbert, to confirm a leak from this well had
been properly fixed. Pursuant to ARSD 74:12:04:11 a written follow-up report is required and must include any
procedures used to remedy the situation. A very small leak still exists on this well and should be monitored.
The well site problems identified in 2012-2014 are listed in the table below. See South Dakota’s Oil and Gas Map-
Based Data Source at http://www.sdgs.usd.edu/sdoil/oilgas_app.html to access inspection reports for details
regarding how these well sites fail to comply with the interim reclamation requirements of ARSD 74:12:03:07.

Failure to bring all 40 of Spyglass Cedar Creek’s Harding County wells into compliance by requesting temporary
abandonment (TA) of the wells and addressing well site reclamation problems may result in enforcement action.
Possible enforcement actions the DENR may pursue include requiring Spyglass Cedar Creek to permanently plug
and abandon all wells, permit revocation pursuant to SDCL 45-9-73, monetary penalties up to $500 per day per
violation, and/or filing a claim against Spyglass Cedar Creek for costs associated with plugging, removal of
equipment, and surface restoration. You must respond by April 21, 2014 with a plan outlining how and when you
intend to bring wells into compliance with ARSD 74:12 in order to avoid possible enforcement action.
It has also come to our attention that Max Main is no longer your attorney or resident agent. Spyglass must designate
a new resident agent through the South Dakota Secretary of State’s office.
If you have any questions or concerns you would like to discuss, please feel free to contact me at 605.773.4201.
