of the Director’s eligibility for certain compensation and benefits upon his resignation from the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) and its Compensation Committee (the “Compensation Committee”),
in exchange for the Director’s agreements herein. 
 RECITALS 

WHEREAS, effective as of October 3, 2016, the Director was appointed to serve as a member of the Board for a two-year term, and the
Director subsequently was appointed to serve as a member of the Compensation Committee; and 
 WHEREAS, Director has tendered his
resignation from the Board and the Compensation Committee effective as of the date of this Agreement. 
 AGREEMENTS 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the
sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
  

	 	1.	Mutual Release. 

  

	 	a.	 Release of Company by Director. For good and valuable consideration, including the Company’s
provision of certain compensation and related benefits in accordance with paragraph 4 below, and subject to the exceptions in paragraph 2 below, the Director, individually and on behalf of his spouse, heirs, successors and assigns (the
“Associated Parties”), hereby expressly, unconditionally, irrevocably and completely releases, discharges and forever acquits the Company, all of its affiliates and subsidiaries, the past, present and future stockholders, members,
partners, directors, managers, employees, agents, attorneys, heirs, legal representatives, and successors and assigns of the foregoing (collectively, the “Company Released Parties”), from liability for, and hereby waives, any and
all claims, demands, liabilities, obligations, agreements, rights, damages, debts or causes of action of any kind or nature, including past, present or future, contingent or unconditional, fixed or variable, unknown or undisclosed
(“Claims”), that the Director or any Associated Party may now have or may have in the future against any Company Released Party related to the Director’s service as a member of the Board or the Compensation Committee, the
termination of such service, and any other acts or omissions related to any matter on or prior to the 



  
 1 









	 	
date of this Agreement (collectively, the “Director Released Claims”). This Agreement is not intended to indicate that any claims that would constitute Director Released Claims
hereunder exist or that, if they do exist, they are meritorious. Rather, the Director is simply agreeing that, in exchange for the consideration recited in paragraph 4 of this Agreement, and subject to the exceptions in paragraph 2 below, any and
all Director Released Claims that the Director may have against any Company Released Party, regardless of whether they actually exist, are expressly settled, compromised and waived. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as an admission of
wrongdoing or liability on the part of any of the Company Released Parties. 

  

	 	b.	Release of Director by Company. To the extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law and subject to the exclusions set forth in this paragraph, the Company, on behalf of itself and the Company Released
Parties, hereby expressly, unconditionally, irrevocably, and completely releases, discharges and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Director, MSL Energy LLC, and Director’s spouse, heirs, affiliates, successors, and assigns (the
“Director Released Parties”) from any and all Claims that the Company or any Company Released Parties may now have or may have in the future against any Director Released Party arising out of Director’s service as a member of
the Board or the Compensation Committee, and any other acts or omissions related to any matter on or prior to the date of this Agreement (the “Company Released Claims”). The Company Released Claims do not include any claims for
which Director would not be entitled to indemnification under the Indemnification Agreement (as defined below). The Company acknowledges that it is not aware of any such conduct as of the execution of this Agreement. 


 

	 	2.	Exclusions from Released Claims. In no event shall the Director Released Claims include: 

  

	 	a.	claims for indemnification pursuant to (i) the Director’s Indemnification Agreement, dated October 3, 2016 (the “Indemnification Agreement”), which shall remain in full force and effect
in accordance with its terms, unmodified by this Agreement, or (ii) the Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws (as the same may be amended from time to time), which provide for the indemnification of the members of the Board;


  

	 	b.	claims for the compensation or benefits to be provided by the Company pursuant to this Agreement; or

	 	c.	rights or claims that may arise after the date this Agreement is executed. 

  

	 	3.	Covenant Not to Sue.

	 	4.	Compensation and Benefits. The Company shall provide the following compensation and benefits to the Director: 

  

	 	a.	a one-time, lump-sum cash payment of $266,250.00, payable within twenty days of the date of this Agreement, which amount represents the sum of the Director’s annual and committee retainers for the period from

	 	b.	full vesting of all 7,169 restricted stock units granted to the Director according to his Restricted Stock Unit Agreement Pursuant to the 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan, dated November 30, 2016, with such vesting to
be effective as of the date of this Agreement. 

 In addition to the compensation and benefits above, the Company shall
reimburse Director for any outstanding costs and expenses incurred by Director in the performance of his duties for the Company prior to his resignation, and for reasonable legal fees actually incurred by Director related to this Agreement not to
exceed $5000. Except as specifically set forth herein, the Director will not be entitled to any further compensation or other benefits from the Company and will not be eligible for, or entitled to receive benefits under, any other plan, policy,
program, or arrangement of the Company. 
  

	 	5.	Non-Disclosure of Confidential Information, Return of Property, and Non-Disparagement. 

  

	 	a.	 Non-Disclosure of Confidential Information. Director shall not, without the prior written consent of the
Company, use, divulge, 



  
 3 









	 	
disclose or make accessible to any other person, firm, partnership, corporation or other entity any Confidential Information pertaining to the business of the Company or any of its affiliates,
except as required by law. For purposes of this section, “Confidential Information” shall mean information: (i) disclosed to or known by Director as a consequence of or through his service on the Board or the Compensation Committee;
(ii) not publicly available or generally known outside the Company or any affiliate other than by Director’s breach of the terms hereof; and (iii) that relates to the business and/or development of the Company or an affiliate. By way
of example, Confidential Information shall include but not be limited to the following: all non-public information or trade secrets of the Company or any affiliate that gives the Company or its affiliate a competitive business advantage or the

data, operational information, plans, and strategies; business and marketing strategies and plans for products and services; information regarding suppliers, consultants, employees and contractors; technical information concerning products,
equipment, services and processes; procurement procedures; pricing and pricing techniques; information concerning customers, investors, and business affiliates; plans or strategies for expansion or acquisitions; budgets; research; trading
methodologies and terms; organizational structure; personnel information; and the Company’s or an affiliate’s files, physical or electronic documents, equipment, and proprietary data or material in whatever form, including all copies of
such materials. Director acknowledges that the Confidential Information of the Company is valuable, special and unique to its business and is information on which such business depends, is proprietary to the Company, and that the Company wishes to
protect such Confidential Information by keeping it secret and confidential for the sole use and benefit of the Company. Director will take all steps necessary and reasonably requested by the Company to ensure that all such Confidential Information
is kept secret and confidential for the sole use and benefit of the Company. Nothing herein shall restrict or limit Director’s right to be an employee, consultant, officer, director, investor, partner, or lender of or otherwise affiliated with
other companies or ventures in the Company’s industry or which are competitors of the Company, as long as Director does not use or disclose any Confidential Information in doing so. 


 

	 	b.	Return of Property. All hard copies of documents containing Confidential Information, including all physical copies thereof, now in Director’s possession or control shall be left with or forthwith returned
by Director to the Company. Director shall use reasonable efforts to delete from his personal computers and devices any electronic copies of any such documents.

or intended to have the effect of discouraging any employee, lessor, licensor, customer, supplier, or other business associate of the Company from maintaining its business relationships with the Company or any of its affiliates. This paragraph does

action that is primarily designed or intended to have the effect of discouraging any individual, entity, business, firm, or other person from entering into or maintaining a business relationship with Director or any entity or person affiliated with
or controlled by him. This paragraph does not preclude the Company or any of its officers, directors, employees, consultants, representatives, advisors, or agents from testifying under oath or in response to a valid subpoena. The Company
acknowledges that it is making, after the opportunity to confer with counsel, a knowing, voluntary and intelligent waiver of rights the Company may have to make disparaging comments regarding Director and/or his affiliates, including rights under

truthful statements as required by law and (2) make private statements to any of its officers, directors or employees or any of its affiliates. Nothing herein shall prevent any person from (1) responding publicly to incorrect, disparaging
or derogatory public statements to the extent reasonably necessary to correct or refute such public statement or (2) making truthful statements to the extent (a) necessary with respect to any litigation, arbitration or mediation involving
this Agreement or any other agreement among or between any party hereto or (b) required by law or by any court, arbitrator, mediator or administrative or legislative body with actual or apparent jurisdiction to order such person to disclose or
