SCOPE OF SERVICES TO BE PROVIDED 

Section 2.1 Engagement. 

(a) On the terms and subject to the conditions and qualifications set forth in this Agreement, the Service Recipients hereby engage the
Service Provider, acting directly or through its Affiliates and their respective employees, agents, contractors or independent third parties, and the Service Provider hereby accepts such engagement, to provide or cause to be provided those services
described in Schedule A (collectively, the “Services”), which Services shall not require approval of the Board, consistent with and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including the term set forth in
Section 5.1); provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else herein to the contrary, in connection with the performance of its duties and obligations hereunder, the Service Provider shall not (nor
any of the Service Provider’s officers or other agents or representative acting on its behalf) have the authority or be permitted to take, in the name or on behalf of either Service Recipient or any subsidiary thereof, any action that requires
the prior approval of the Board or pursuant to any action of the Board as to which the Service Provider has been notified, unless and until such approval of the Board has been obtained. 

(b) In providing, or causing to be provided, the Services, in no event shall the Service Provider be obligated to do any of the following:
(i) maintain the employment of any specific employee or hire additional employees; (ii) purchase, lease or license any additional equipment (including computer equipment, furniture, furnishings, fixtures, machinery, vehicles, tools and
other tangible personal property), systems or software; (iii) otherwise acquire any additional assets, rights or properties; (iv) make modifications to its existing systems or software; or (v) pay any costs related to the transfer or
conversion of data of the Service Recipients; provided, however, that, in the event that any employees that are engaged in the provision of Services cease working for the Service Provider or are reassigned to other work by the Service Provider, the
Service Provider shall make commercially reasonable efforts to replace such employees or otherwise to have the duties performed by such employees in connection with the Services continue to be provided, and the Service Provider shall make or cause
to be made such repairs or modifications as are reasonably necessary to keep the equipment, systems or software used in providing the Services in working order, to the extent consistent with Service Provider’s historical practices prior to the
Effective Date. Service Provider shall not be required to perform Services hereunder that conflict with any applicable law, contract or permit or policies of the Service Provider or to which the Service Provider is subject relating to business
conduct and ethical practices. 
 Section 2.2 Transition Obligations. It is understood and agreed by the parties that the
Service Provider is expected to provide the Services for a limited amount of time while the parties work together to effect the transition of the day to day operations of the mineral and royalty interest business of the Corporation and the Company
from Service Provider to the Service Recipients or to a successor provider or providers of such Services designated by the Service Recipients (the “Transition”). During the Term of this Agreement, the Service Provider and the
Service Recipients shall reasonably cooperate to take all actions reasonably necessary to support the Transition, including but not limited to, dedicating and allocating appropriate personnel to effectuate the Transition, in an orderly and
expeditious manner, including the assignment to the Service Recipients, or the replacement service provider(s), as applicable, of any contracts entered into by the Service Provider relating to the performance of such Services, the transition of
personnel from the employ of Service Provider to be employed by Service Recipients or an affiliate thereof, assignment or transfer of leases for office space and doing all things in the ordinary 

  
 3 













 
course of business required to effect the Transition (the “Transition Activities”); provided, however, that the Service Provider shall not be responsible for (and the Service
Recipients shall be responsible for) any payments, costs and expenses required in connection with securing transfer of such contracts and such other transition services. Service Recipients shall use commercially reasonable efforts to effect the
Transition and perform their respective Transition Activities in a timely and expeditious manner. 
 Section 2.3 Limitation on
Powers and Duties. The Service Provider’s duties and obligations are limited under this Agreement to the availability of the resources of the Service Recipients to pay for the same, and to the extent the Service Recipients fail to
timely pay the Service Provider amounts due for services provided under this Agreement, then the Service Provider shall not be under any obligation to provide services under this Agreement until such amounts are paid in full. Notwithstanding the
provisions of Section 2.1 or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, without the prior approval of the Board, or its delegates, the Service Provider shall not: 

(a) amend, change or modify this Agreement; 

(b) enter into any transaction binding a Service Recipient or any agreement binding on a Service Recipient with, or grant any waiver binding
on a Service Recipient to, any Affiliate of the Service Provider in connection with the Services provided for hereunder; 
 (c) make any
election or take any other action that requires approval of the Board (as set forth in the most recent communication from Service Provider as to matters requiring Board approval); or 

(d) enter into any transaction or agreement involving a Service Recipient that is not expressly approved by the Board or its delegates, if
prior approval of the Board is required. 
 Section 2.4 Standard of Care; Indemnification. 

(a) The Services and the Transition Activities to be provided hereunder shall be performed in substantially the same manner, with respect to
the Services only and only to the extent applicable, as such Services were performed by Service Provider prior to the date of this agreement, with a degree of care, diligence and skill that a reasonably prudent Person involved in the acquisition,
development and management of mineral and royalty interests in oil and natural gas properties comparable to those of the Properties would exercise, and in compliance with all applicable laws and this Agreement. 

(b) NEITHER THE SERVICE PROVIDER, ITS AFFILIATES, NOR ITS OR THEIR RESPECTIVE PARTNERS, MEMBERS, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, MANAGERS, EMPLOYEES OR
AGENTS, SHALL BE LIABLE, RESPONSIBLE, OR ACCOUNTABLE IN DAMAGES OR OTHERWISE TO THE SERVICE RECIPIENTS FOR ANY ACTION TAKEN OR FAILURE TO ACT (EVEN IF SUCH ACTION OR FAILURE TO ACT CONSTITUTED THE SOLE, CONCURRENT OR COMPARATIVE NEGLIGENCE OF
SERVICE PROVIDER OR SUCH AFFILIATE, PARTNER, MEMBER, OFFICER, MANAGER, DIRECTOR, EMPLOYEE OR AGENT) IN CONNECTION WITH THE OPERATIONS, BUSINESS AND AFFAIRS OF THE SERVICE RECIPIENTS, UNLESS SUCH ACT OR FAILURE TO ACT WAS THE RESULT OF FRAUD, WILLFUL
AND INTENTIONAL MISCONDUCT OR CRIMINAL WRONGDOING OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE SERVICE PROVIDER EVER BE LIABLE TO ANY SUCH PARTY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR IN CONNECTION WITH SERVICES PROVIDED HEREUNDER FOR ANY PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL,
CONSEQUENTIAL OR INDIRECT DAMAGES, LOSS OF PROFIT OR OTHER SIMILAR DAMAGE OR LOSS, WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE.

 (c) Without limitation of Section 2.4(b): 

THE SERVICE RECIPIENTS SHALL INDEMNIFY, DEFEND AND HOLD HARMLESS THE SERVICE PROVIDER AND ITS OWNERS, MANAGERS, OFFICERS, AFFILIATES (EXCLUDING, FOR THE
AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, THE SERVICE RECIPIENTS), EMPLOYEES, AGENTS AND REPRESENTATIVES (COLLECTIVELY, THE “INDEMNITEES” AND INDIVIDUALLY, AN “INDEMNITEE”) FROM ANY AND ALL LOSSES, LIABILITIES, COSTS, EXPENSES,
JUDGMENTS, FINES, SETTLEMENTS AND OTHER AMOUNTS (INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND EXPENSES) ARISING FROM ANY CLAIMS, DEMANDS, ACTIONS, SUITS OR PROCEEDINGS, CIVIL, CRIMINAL, ADMINISTRATIVE OR INVESTIGATIVE (EACH, A
“CLAIM”), IN WHICH THE INDEMNITEE MAY BE INVOLVED, OR THREATENED TO BE INVOLVED, AS A PARTY OR OTHERWISE, BY REASON OF OR IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE SERVICE PROVIDER’S PROVISION OF SERVICES AS AGENT
HEREUNDER; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT NO INDEMNITEE SHALL BE INDEMNIFIED BY THE SERVICE RECIPIENTS FOR (A) ANY ACTS OR OMISSIONS BY THE INDEMNITEE THAT CONSTITUTE OR RESULT FROM SUCH INDEMNITEE’S FRAUD, WILLFUL AND INTENTIONAL MISCONDUCT,
CRIMINAL WRONGDOING, OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE, OR (B) ANY CLAIM INITIATED BY AN INDEMNITEE UNLESS THAT CLAIM WAS BROUGHT TO ENFORCE THAT INDEMNITEE’S RIGHT TO INDEMNIFICATION UNDER THIS SECTION 2.4(c) AND SUCH INDEMNITEE IS ACTUALLY
ENTITLED TO INDEMNIFICATION. 
 THE SERVICE PROVIDER SHALL INDEMNIFY, DEFEND AND HOLD HARMLESS THE SERVICE RECIPIENTS AND THEIR OWNERS, MEMBERS, MANAGERS,
OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, AFFILIATES, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS AND REPRESENTATIVES (COLLECTIVELY, THE “SERVICE RECIPIENT INDEMNITEES” AND INDIVIDUALLY, A “SERVICE RECIPIENT INDEMNITEE”) FROM ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, IN WHICH THE
SERVICE RECIPIENT INDEMNITEE MAY BE INVOLVED, OR THREATENED TO BE INVOLVED, AS A PARTY OR OTHERWISE, IF AND TO THE EXTENT ARISING OUT OF OR RESULTING FROM ANY ACTS OR OMISSIONS BY THE SERVICE PROVIDER (INCLUDING ITS OWNERS, MANAGERS, OFFICERS,
AFFILIATES, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS AND REPRESENTATIVES ACTING ON SERVICE PROVIDER’S BEHALF, BUT EXCLUDING, FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, SERVICE RECIPIENTS OR THEIR SUBSIDIARIES) THAT CONSTITUTE OR RESULT FROM THE SERVICE PROVIDER’S FRAUD,
WILLFUL AND INTENTIONAL MISCONDUCT, CRIMINAL WRONGDOING, OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE IN PROVIDING THE SERVICES OR OTHERWISE ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT. 

Expenses incurred by an Indemnitee in defending or investigating a threatened or pending action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the Service Recipients in
advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Indemnitee to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by
the Service Recipients. 
 The indemnification provided by this Section 2.4 shall continue as to an Indemnitee or Service
Recipient Indemnitee who has ceased to serve in such capacity and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, successors, assigns, administrators and personal representatives of the Indemnitees or Service Recipient Indemnitees, as applicable.

 Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the remedies set forth in
Section 2.4 shall be the sole and exclusive remedies with respect to any and all claims under this Agreement by (a) in the case of Service Recipients, the Service Recipient Indemnitees, and (b) in the case of
Service Provider, the Indemnitees, except for the remedies set forth in Article III with respect to compensation paid hereunder, which shall be available to the parties hereto in accordance with the terms thereof. 

All obligations of Service Recipients hereunder, including those set forth in this Section 2.4, shall be joint and several. 

ARTICLE III 

COMPENSATION 

Section 3.1 Reimbursable Costs; Cash Advances. 

(a) The Service Recipients shall reimburse the Service Provider for the actual general and administrative and overhead costs and expenses
(including the salaries and other compensation and benefits of its employees, appropriately allocated in accordance with the time they spend providing the Services), and all
out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including rent expenses and any expenses for auditors or other consultants), in each case, incurred by the Service Provider or its
affiliate in performing the Services (the “Service Provider Expenses”). Notwithstanding the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, “Service Provider Expenses” shall not include (i) any management fee or similar fee
paid by Kimmeridge Mineral Fund, LP, Kimmeridge Energy Exploration Fund V, LP or any other fund controlled, managed or advised by Kimmeridge Energy Management Company, LLC or (ii) the salaries and other compensation and benefits of any partner
or employee of Kimmeridge Energy Management Company, LLC or its Affiliates other than the Service Provider, Kimmeridge Operations, LLC. All allocations of Service Provider Expenses (including allocation of employee compensation and benefits) will be
allocated in accordance with the Service Provider’s expense policy, which is attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Allocation Policy”); provided, however, that in the event that any cost or expense is allocable pursuant to
the Allocation Policy but does not constitute Service Provider Expenses under this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control; provided further that footnote 1 to the Allocation Policy will be deemed deleted for purposes hereof. 

(b) The Service Provider may periodically request that the Service Recipients advance Service Provider Expenses in connection with the
performance of the Services, but only to the extent such costs and expenses are reasonably expected to be incurred within sixty (60) days after any such request. Any such request shall be accompanied by a statement to which each applicable cost
or expense relates and shall include such other documentation relating to such cost or expense as may be reasonably necessary to substantiate the advance or as may be reasonably requested by the Service Recipients from time to time. If any such
requested funds are not advanced by the Service Recipients, and as a result the Service Provider would be required to front a cost or expense on behalf of the Service Recipients with respect to the performance of any Services, the Service Provider
may refrain from performing such Service until the Service Recipients agree to advance such funds hereunder, without penalty. If any advanced funds are not expended in the performance of the Services within ninety (90) days after such funds are
so advanced, the Service Recipients shall have the right to require the return of such funds by written notice to the Service Provider. 

Section 3.2 Invoicing and Payment. The Service Provider will invoice each Service Recipient from time to time, as
determined by the Service Provider in its sole discretion, subject to the provisions of this Section 3.2. The Service Recipients will pay undisputed invoiced amounts promptly after the receipt of each such invoice. The
Service Provider shall send an invoice to each Service Recipient on or before the twentieth (20th) day following the end of each month for charges incurred in the preceding month. 

  
 6 













 
Such invoices will be accompanied by statements which identify in reasonable detail all charges and credits, summarized by appropriate classifications of expense. Unless otherwise provided for in
this Agreement, the Service Provider may require each Service Recipient to advance estimated cash outlays for the succeeding month’s services by the first day of the month for which the advance is required. The Service Provider shall adjust
each monthly billing to reflect advances received by each Service Recipient. 
 Section 3.3 Disputes. 

(a) A SERVICE RECIPIENT (OR THE AUDIT COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD) MAY, WITHIN 20 DAYS AFTER RECEIPT OF AN INVOICE FROM THE SERVICE PROVIDER, TAKE
WRITTEN EXCEPTION TO ANY CHARGE, ON THE GROUND THAT THE SAME WAS NOT A REASONABLE COST OR EXPENSE INCURRED BY THE SERVICE PROVIDER IN CONNECTION WITH THE PROVISION OF SERVICES. IF THE AMOUNT AS TO WHICH SUCH WRITTEN EXCEPTION IS TAKEN, OR ANY PART
THEREOF, IS ULTIMATELY DETERMINED NOT TO BE A REASONABLE COST OR EXPENSE INCURRED BY THE SERVICE PROVIDER IN CONNECTION WITH THE PROVISION OF SERVICES, SUCH AMOUNT OR PORTION THEREOF (AS THE CASE MAY BE) SHALL BE REFUNDED BY THE SERVICE PROVIDER TO
SUCH SERVICE RECIPIENT. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING HEREIN TO THE CONTRARY, A SERVICE RECIPIENT (OR THE AUDIT COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD) MAY TAKE EXCEPTION TO ANY CHARGE WITHIN THE PERIOD SPECIFIED ABOVE NOTWITHSTANDING THAT THE RELATED INVOICE WAS PAID
IN FULL. 
 (b) If, within 20 days after receipt of any written exception pursuant to Section 3.3(a), the Service
Recipient (or the audit committee of the Board) and the Service Provider have been unable to resolve any dispute, and if the aggregate amount in dispute exceeds $100,000, such Service Recipient (or the audit committee of the Board) or the Service
Provider may submit the dispute to an independent third party accounting firm that is mutually agreeable to such Service Recipient (or the audit committee of the Board), on the one hand, and the Service Provider, on the other hand. The parties shall
cooperate with such accounting firm and shall provide such auditing firm access to such books and records as may be reasonably necessary to permit a determination by such auditing firm. The resolution by such auditing firm shall be final and binding
on the parties and the costs of such accounting firm shall be shared by the Service Provider and the Service Recipients equally. 
 (c)
Absent a dispute, as described above, if Service Recipients fails to timely pay any fee or cost or any of the amounts described in Section 3.1 within thirty (30) days, Service Provider may, at its option, suspend all or any portion of the
provision of Services hereunder until such time as the default has been cured and all indebtedness of Service Provider under this Agreement for such suspended Services is paid in full. Without limiting the foregoing, in instances of such non-payment, Service Provider will also have the right to set off the amounts of the non-payments against all amounts, revenues and other proceeds that have been received by
Service Provider on Service Recipients’ behalf (or for Service Recipients’ account) in performing the Services hereunder. In the event of a good faith dispute with respect to any invoice: (i) Service Recipients shall promptly provide
Service Provider notice thereof, (ii) Service Recipients shall not be required to make payment of any amounts in dispute pending resolution of such dispute, (iii) Service Recipients and Service Provider shall seek to resolve such dispute
and (iv) Service Provider shall not be required to perform the Services in accordance with this Agreement pending resolution of such dispute. 

(d) All amounts owed under this Agreement shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds in U.S. Dollars sent to the bank and
account designated by Service Provider. Any amounts due under this Agreement will accrue interest at the Prime Rate beginning on the next Business Day following the due date of the applicable invoice until the date paid to Service Provider.

properties and businesses (“Confidential Information”), and will not, and will not permit its directors, officers, agents and other representatives to, (a) disclose Confidential Information to any other Person other than
(i) to another party hereto for a valid business purpose relating to its rights and obligations under this Agreement, (ii) in the case of the Service Provider (and its directors, officers, agents and other representatives), in carrying its
duties in the best interests of the Service Recipients, or (iii) in the case of the Service Recipients, to any Person who is a potential acquirer of either or both of the Service Recipients or any of their respective subsidiaries (or of all or
substantially all of the assets of either or both of the Service Recipients or any of their respective subsidiaries) so long as such Person is subject to a confidentiality agreement with respect to the Confidential Information, or (b) use
Confidential Information for anything other than as necessary and appropriate in carrying out its rights and obligations under this Agreement. The restrictions set forth herein do not apply to any disclosures required by law or regulatory authority
(pursuant to the advice of counsel), so long as (x) the Person subject to such disclosure obligations provides prior written notice (to the extent reasonably practicable and permitted by applicable law) to the other party to this Agreement
stating the basis upon which the disclosure is asserted to be required, and (y) the Person subject to such disclosure obligations takes all reasonable steps permitted by applicable law (without the obligation to spend money or incur
liabilities) to oppose or mitigate any such disclosure. As used herein the term “Confidential Information” shall not include information that (i) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a

 11 













 
this Agreement, (ii) is or was available to such disclosing party on a non-confidential basis prior to its disclosure by the other party to this
Agreement or (iii) was or becomes available to such party on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the other party to this Agreement, which source is or was (at the time of receipt of the
relevant information) not, to the best of such party’s knowledge, bound by a confidentiality agreement with (or other confidentiality obligation to) the other party to this Agreement. 

Section 8.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, by facsimile or electronic
signatures or otherwise, with the same effect as if all signatories had signed the same document. All counterparts will be construed together and constitute the same instrument. 

Section 8.11 Electronic Transmissions. Each of the parties hereto agrees that (a) any consent or signed document
transmitted by electronic transmission shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original written document, (b) any such consent or document shall be considered to have the same binding and legal effect as an original document and
(c) at the request of any party hereto, any such consent or document shall be re-delivered or re-executed, as appropriate, by the relevant party or parties in its
original form. Each of the parties further agrees that they will not raise the transmission of a consent or document by electronic transmission as a defense in any proceeding or action in which the validity of such consent or document is at issue
and hereby forever waives such defense. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “electronic transmission” means any form of communication not directly involving the physical transmission of paper, that creates a record that may be
retained, retrieved and reviewed by a recipient thereof, and that may be directly reproduced in paper form by such a recipient through an automated process.
