Re: Letter Agreement Regarding Marmaton Sale


Ladies and Gentlemen:


Reference is hereby made to that certain Tenth Restated Credit Agreement dated as of December 21, 2017 (as amended prior to the date hereof, the “Credit Agreement”), among Chaparral Energy, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), each of the Lenders from time to time party thereto, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”) and the other parties party thereto. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings given to them in the Credit Agreement.


1. Marmaton Sale. The Borrower has advised the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that one of the Subsidiaries of the Borrower intends to sell or otherwise transfer those certain Oil and Gas Properties more particularly described in that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated as of June 20, 2018, among Chaparral Energy, L.L.C., an Oklahoma limited liability company (“Chaparral”) and Resource Oil & Gas, L.L.C., an Oklahoma limited liability company (such version of such purchase and sale agreement, the “Marmaton Sale Agreement”, such Oil and Gas Properties including the oil and gas leases and wells described on Exhibit A to the Marmaton Sale Agreement, together with the other “Properties” as defined in the Marmaton Sale Agreement, the “Marmaton Properties”, and such sale, the “Marmaton Sale”). The Borrower has further advised the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that the consummation of the Marmaton Sale will trigger an automatic reduction of the Borrowing Base pursuant to Section 2.07(f) of the Credit Agreement. The Borrower has requested that the Lenders disregard (a) the Marmaton Sale, (b) the sale of certain Oil and Gas Properties more particularly described in that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated as of May 24, 2018, among Chaparral and DPMS Oil, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (such agreement, the “DPMS Sale Agreement”, such Oil and Gas Properties including the oil and gas leases and wells described on Exhibit A to the DPMS Sale Agreement, together with the other “Properties” as defined in the DPMS Sale Agreement, the “DPMS Properties”, and such sale, the “DPMS Sale”) and (c) the sale of certain Oil and Gas Properties more particularly described in that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated as of May 10, 2018, among Chaparral and PO&G Resources Fund, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (such agreement, the “PO&G Sale Agreement”, such Oil and Gas Properties including the oil and gas leases and wells described on Exhibit A to the PO&G Sale Agreement, together with the other “Properties” as defined in the PO&G Sale Agreement, the “PO&G Properties”, and such sale, the “PO&G Sale”), in future determinations of whether a Triggering Disposition has occurred. 













2. Purposes of this Letter. The Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders party hereto desire to enter into this Letter Agreement (this “Letter Agreement”) to evidence such Lenders’ (a) approval of the amount of the Borrowing Base reduction following the consummation of the Marmaton Sale, and (b) consent to disregard the Marmaton Sale, the DPMS Sale and the PO&G Sale in future determinations of whether a Triggering Disposition has occurred, in each case, on the terms and conditions set forth herein.


3. Borrowing Base Reduction. In reliance on the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Letter Agreement, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 3 and subject to the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4, the Lenders party hereto hereby agree that (a) pursuant to Section 2.07(f) of the Credit Agreement, upon the consummation of the Marmaton Sale, the Borrowing Base shall be automatically reduced, without any further action required on the part of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, on the date that the Marmaton Sale is consummated by an amount equal to $20,000,000, and (b) so long as the reduction in the Borrowing Base provided for in the foregoing clause (a) occurs, the Borrowing Base value of the Marmaton Properties, the DPMS Properties and the PO&G Properties shall be disregarded for future calculations of the aggregate Borrowing Base value of Oil and Gas Properties sold or otherwise disposed of during any period for purposes of determining whether a Triggering Disposition has occurred; provided, that each of the following conditions is satisfied: 


		
	(i)
	The Marmaton Sale shall be consummated on or prior to August 31, 2018; 


		
	(ii)
	The Marmaton Sale shall be consummated in accordance with the Marmaton Sale Agreement in all material respects and no term or condition of the Marmaton Sale Agreement shall have been amended, modified or waived in a manner adverse to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in any material respect; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, any amendment, modification or waiver that results in the addition of any property to the Marmaton Properties to be sold by a Credit Party pursuant to the Marmaton Sale Agreement shall be deemed to be adverse to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in a material respect; and 


		
	(iii)
	 The Administrative Agent shall have received final, executed copies of the Marmaton Sale Agreement (including all amendments thereto, if any) and all other material agreements, assignments or other conveyance documents executed in connection therewith, which copies shall be certified as being true and correct in all material respects by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower.




Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Letter Agreement, the agreements set forth herein are limited solely to the matters set forth above, and nothing contained in this Letter Agreement shall be deemed a consent to, or waiver of, any other action or inaction of the Borrower or any other Credit Party which constitutes (or would constitute) a violation of any provision of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document. Neither the Lenders nor the Administrative Agent shall be obligated to grant any future waivers, consents or amendments with respect to any other provision of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document.
