Questions
1. When was the Dallas City Council informed of this specific mineral lease with Expro Engineering/Trinity East Energy and The City of Dallas? 2. Why didn't this mineral lease arrangment between The City of Dallas and Expro Engineering/Trinity East Energy require a vote of approval by Council? 3. Why was the UD Gas Well #lH combined with UD-Dallas Well #lH to create a new and larger well now known as UD-Dallas Gas Unit Well #2H? 4. What is the total of royalty payments to The City of Dallas under this mineral lease agreement? 5. What do we know about the cement casing failure event in 2009? 6. What amount of contamination occurred above ground, below ground at this location in July 2009? Was testing conducted? 7. Has this area been tested since 2009 for any present or future contamination? 8. Is the production facility mentioned in the letter of February 27,2009 tied to the current proposal to build a gas production facility at Luna Vista which is just North of The University of Dallas pad site? 9. If allowed, would this gas production facility create a shale gas production terminal complex at Luna Vista, next door to the Elm Fork Soccer Complex, and adjacent to City of Irving residents, schools, and businesses? 10. Why did Atmos Energy construct the gathering pipeline which is built to connect to a pipeline highway that could reach the Luna Vista gas production facility?

11. Where is the mineral lease paperwork between The City of Dallas and Expro Engineering/Trinity East Energy that would show the length of time for the lease, pipeline property usage and other details? 12. Are there plans for Expro Engineering/Trinity East Energy to connect the University of Dallas pad site via a pipelines to other pad sites in Grand Prairie, Farmers Branch, and Irving to create a larger network?

13. Why were two different Texas Railroad Commission Offices being contacted about one pad site? Would this lead to confusion for Railroad Commission concerning casing failure event and the integrity of pad site operations?
