WHEREAS, Extraction, Raptor Eagle Merger Sub, Inc., and Bonanza Creek Energy, Inc. have entered into that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger
dated as of May 9, 2021, which is expected to close (the “Closing”) on November 1, 2021, in conjunction with which Bonanza Creek Energy, Inc. will change its name to Civitas Resources, Inc.
(“Civitas”). 
 NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, each Party agrees as follows: 

1.    Capitalized Terms. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning assigned to
them in the Agreement. 
 2.    Amendment Effective Date. The Amendment shall be effective upon the Closing (the
“Amendment Effective Date”). 
 3.    Substitution of Company and Novation. The Agreement
shall be amended so that all references in the Agreement to Extraction or the Company shall instead be to Civitas. The Parties hereby agree that Civitas shall assume and be solely responsible for all rights and obligations of the Company under the
Agreement, whether arising before or after the Amendment Effective Date, and that Extraction shall be fully novated and released from all further obligations under the Agreement. Executive hereby stipulates and agrees that, so long as the Civitas
board of directors elects her to the office of Chief Financial Officer of Civitas in conjunction with the Closing, she shall not have experienced a termination of her employment with the Company as a result of the transfer of her employment from
Extraction to Civitas. 
 4.    Miscellaneous. 

(a)    Continuation of Agreement. From and after the date of this Amendment, all references to the Agreement set
forth therein or in any other agreement shall, unless otherwise specifically provided, be references to the Agreement as amended by this Amendment and as may be further amended, modified, restated or supplemented from time to time by the Parties.
