Depositor and Grantor hereby authorize the Trustee on behalf of the Trust to execute and deliver, and to cause the Trust to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents and the
activities contemplated therein. 
 Section 2.3. Nature of the Trust. It is the intention and agreement of
Depositor, Grantor, the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee to continue the Trust as a statutory trust within the meaning of Section 3801(f) of the Delaware Trust Act, for the benefit of the Unitholders, and as a grantor trust for federal
income tax purposes. As set forth above and amplified herein, the Trust is intended to be a passive entity limited to the receipt of revenues attributable to the Royalties and the distribution of such revenues, after payment of or provision for
Trust expenses and liabilities, including expenses and liabilities that may be contingent or otherwise uncertain, to the Unitholders. It is neither the purpose nor the intention of the parties hereto to create, and nothing in this Trust Agreement
shall be construed as creating, a partnership, joint venture, joint stock company or business association between or among Unitholders, present or future, or among or between Unitholders, or any of them, and any one or more of the Trustee, the
Delaware Trustee, Depositor or Grantor. Neither the Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee, in its individual capacity or otherwise, makes any representation as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement or the Units. Neither the Trustee nor the
Delaware Trustee has had any access to any information regarding the Royalties or the Subject Interests and neither the Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee makes any representation or warranty or other statement regarding any potential payments to be
received by the Trust or the Unitholders or the value, if any, of the Conveyances or the Units or any other matter regarding any estimate of value that may be ascribed to the Units by any Person. 

Section 2.4. Transfer of Trust Property to the Trust. 

(a) Depositor has paid to the Original Trustees, in trust, and concurrently with the execution and delivery of this
Agreement the Original Trustees have transferred to the Trustee, and the Trustee has accepted and agreed to hold in trust, for the uses and purposes provided herein, the sum of Ten Dollars ($10.00). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Depositor has
agreed to cause Company and/or its Affiliates, effective as of the Effective Time, to enter into the Master Conveyance as of the Closing and to grant, bargain, sell, convey and assign the Royalties to the Trust as provided for in the Master
Conveyance, for the uses and purposes provided herein and for the benefit of the Unitholders, pursuant to the Conveyances. 
 (b) In accordance with the terms of the Master Conveyance (including Section 2.1(h) and Section 5.2 thereof), Grantor may at any time or from time to time, without the consent of
the Unitholders, sell a divided or undivided portion of its interest in the Subject Interests, provided, however, that except as provided in Section 2.1(h) of the Master Conveyance, such sale shall be subject to and burdened by the
Royalties that burden such portion of the interest held by Grantor or any of its Affiliates. Promptly after completion of any such sale, Grantor shall so notify the Trustee in writing. Any purchaser of such interest shall be the assignee of Grantor
to the extent of the interest sold and shall be bound by the obligations of Grantor under this Agreement and the Conveyances to such extent. Notwithstanding any such sale, Grantor shall remain responsible for the performance of, and no such sale
shall relieve Grantor of its responsibilities with respect to, its obligations to provide information and reporting to the Trust and Trustee pursuant to this Agreement. 

  
 10 









 (c) Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, counsel
to Depositor and Grantor are delivering legal opinions to the Trust and Trustee in form and substance acceptable to the Trustee. 
 Section 2.5. Issuance of Units. 
 (a) As of the
Effective Time, the Trust hereby issues [            ] Units to the Exchange Agent for distribution to the holders of the Company Common Stock and
[            ] Units to the Depositor (including [ ] Company Convertible Units). The Units to be issued by the Trust to the Exchange Agent and the Depositor, as applicable,
shall be uncertificated and ownership thereof evidenced by entry of a notation in an ownership ledger maintained for such purpose by the Trustee or a transfer agent designated by the Trustee (“Book-Entry Units”). The
Unitholders (including the Depositor for so long as any Units are registered in Depositor’s name) shall be the sole beneficial owners of the Trust Estate and the Trust. Upon the surrender and exchange of the shares of Company Common Stock in
accordance with the Merger Agreement or the distribution of the Company Convertible Units to the holders of the Company Convertible Securities in accordance with the respective terms of the underlying governing documents of the Company Convertible
Securities and the Merger Agreement, the Exchange Agent or Depositor, as applicable shall notify the Trustee or a transfer agent designated by the Trustee and the ownership of such Units so exchanged or distributed shall be reflected in the ledger
maintained for such purpose by the Trustee or transfer agent designated by the Trustee. 
 (b) If the Units have
not satisfied the MPC for the NYSE or NASDAQ within nine (9) months of the Closing, then Depositor shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to direct the Trustee to cause a vote of Unitholders to be held within (i) if there is
not an SEC review of the proxy materials, eleven (11) months of the Closing or (ii) if there is an SEC review of the proxy materials, sixty (60) days following the conclusion of such review, and in each case in accordance with
Section 8.3 hereof, to approve any subdivision, split or combination of Units, the effect of which shall be in accordance with Section 3.20(k) hereof and would be expected to result in a price per Unit following such
subdivision, split or combination that exceeds the MPC for the NYSE or NASDAQ, as applicable. If such subdivision, split or combination of Units is approved by the Unitholders in accordance with Section 8.3, the Depositor shall use its
commercially reasonable best efforts (as such term is defined in Section 3.16(c)) to fulfill its obligations pursuant to Section 3.16(c). For the avoidance of doubt, any Units owned by Depositor or its Affiliates shall be
deemed outstanding for all purposes, including the right to vote such Units, and shall be entitled to vote such Units in any vote to approve any subdivision, split or combination of Units (and shall vote such Units in favor of approving any such
subdivision, split or combination proposed by Depositor in connection with this Section 2.5(b)), and no such vote shall be deemed to present a material conflict of interest between Depositor or its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the
Unitholders other than Depositor or its Affiliates, on the other hand. The Trust is hereby authorized to issue such additional number of Units as is required from time to time in connection with any such subdivision, split or combination.

with the discharge of its duties under this Agreement (collectively, “Trust Obligations”) shall be paid by the Trustee to the extent that funds of the Trust are available therefor (which shall not include funds previously set
aside for payment of a Quarterly Distribution Amount); provided that to the extent the Trust Obligations exceed the funds of the Trust available therefor, the Trust Obligations shall be paid promptly by Depositor, as a contribution to the Trust and
without any right of repayment or interest in the Trust as a result thereof, up to a maximum of $350,000 per calendar year (the “Depositor Annual Expense Cap”), and any amount in excess of the Depositor Annual Expense Cap
shall, except as provided in Section 3.16(d) or Section 3.16(e) (for clarity, Expenses under Section 3.16(d) or Section 3.16(e) shall not be subject to or count against or part of the Depositor Annual
Expense Cap, and shall be paid by Depositor in accordance with Section 3.16(d) or Section 3.16(e), as applicable), be paid by the Trust out of proceeds of Depositor Loans or loans pursuant to Section 3.9(b). Trust
Obligations required to be paid by Depositor may be paid directly by Depositor or, at the request of the Trustee, Depositor shall transfer to the Trustee from time to time funds equal to the aggregate amount of Trust Obligations that Depositor would
otherwise be required to pay, and the Trustee shall utilize such funds to pay such Trust Obligations. The obligation of Depositor to make Depositor Loans is set forth in Section 7.5. 

Section 3.8. Establishment of Reserves. With respect to any liability that is contingent or uncertain in amount or that
otherwise is not currently due and payable, the Trustee in its sole discretion may, but is not obligated to, establish a cash reserve for the payment of such liability. 
 Section 3.9. Limited Power to Borrow. 
 (a) Trustee on
behalf of the Trust is authorized and directed to borrow funds from Depositor or any Affiliate of Depositor (as Depositor Loans), directly or indirectly, for the purposes described in Section 3.7 and Section 7.5. Any
Depositor Loan pursuant to this Section 3.9 or Section 7.5 may be evidenced by a written promissory note executed by the Trustee on behalf of the Trust, and shall (i) be on an unsecured basis,
(ii)

  
 17 









 
have a maturity date no earlier than the Dissolution Date, (iii) be interest-free, and (iv) be without recourse to the Trustee, it being agreed that any such loan shall be payable
solely out of the assets of the Trust. Depositor Loans shall be paid in full prior to distributions to Unitholders. 
 (b) If at any time the cash on hand and to be received by the Trust and available to pay Trust Obligations or to purchase Units if required under Section 3.15(c) is not, or may not be, in the
judgment of the Trustee, sufficient to pay the Trust Obligations as they become due or to purchase Units if required under Section 3.15(c), and Depositor fails to make Depositor Loans in such amounts and at such times as Trustee deems
sufficient (provided, however, that nothing herein is intended to relieve Depositor of its obligation to fund or cause an Affiliate of Depositor to fund all amounts requested by the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.5 in accordance with the
provisions of Section 7.5), the Trustee is authorized to borrow the funds required to pay such Trust Obligations or make such purchases from any party other than Depositor and its Affiliates. If the Trust borrows any amounts pursuant to
this Section 3.9(b), no further distributions will be made to Unitholders (except in respect of any previously determined and unpaid Quarterly Distribution Amounts) until the indebtedness created by such borrowing has been paid in full.
To secure payment of such indebtedness, the Trustee is authorized (without any vote of Unitholders) to mortgage, pledge, grant security interests in or otherwise encumber (and to include as a part thereof any and all terms, powers, remedies,
covenants and provisions deemed necessary or advisable in the Trustee’s discretion, including, without limitation, the power of sale with or without judicial proceedings) the Trust Estate, or any portion thereof, including the Royalties, and to
carve out and convey production payments. 
 (c) No provision of this Agreement shall require either the Trustee,
the Delaware Trustee or any other Person serving as a fiduciary hereunder, to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur personal financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or
powers. The Trustee and the Delaware Trustee or any other Person serving as fiduciary hereunder shall be indemnified and held harmless by Depositor and Grantor in accordance with Section 6.2 for any liability incurred in the performance
of any of its duties under this Agreement. In no event shall the Trustee be responsible for the payment of any Quarterly Distribution Amount, Sales Proceeds Amounts or other amount except to the extent that it has sufficient cash on hand on behalf
of the Trust to make such payment. 
 Section 3.10. Income and Principal. The Trustee shall not be required to keep
separate accounts or records for income and principal or maintain any reserves for depletion of the Royalties. However, if the Trustee does keep such separate accounts or records, then the Trustee is authorized to treat all or any part of the
receipts from the Royalties as income or principal without having to maintain a reserve therefor, and in general to determine all questions as between income and principal and to credit or charge to income or principal, or to apportion between them
any receipt or gain and any charge, disbursement or loss. 
 Section 3.11. [Reserved]. 

  
 18 









 Section 3.12. Transactions between Related Parties. Each of the Trustee and the
Delaware Trustee shall not be prohibited in any way in exercising its powers from making contracts or having dealings with itself or its Affiliates in any other capacity (fiduciary or otherwise) or with Depositor or Grantor or any Affiliate of
either of them. 
 Section 3.13. No Bond Required. Neither the Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee shall be required to
furnish any bond or security of any kind. 
 Section 3.14. Timing of Trust Income and Expenses. The Trustee will
attempt in good faith to cause the Trust and the Unitholders to recognize income and expenses on Quarterly Record Dates. The Trustee will invoice the Trust for services rendered by the Trustee on a periodic basis and, except to the extent that the
Trustee’s fees previously have been paid directly by Depositor as agreed in Schedule 2 to this Agreement, shall cause the Trust to pay such invoices upon receipt by the Trust to the extent that funds of the Trust are available therefor
(which shall not include funds previously set aside for payment of a Quarterly Distribution Amount), and will attempt in good faith to cause all Persons to whom the Trust becomes liable to invoice the Trust for such liability on a periodic basis and
to cause the Trust to pay any such invoices to the extent that funds of the Trust are available therefor (which shall not include funds previously set aside for payment of a Quarterly Distribution Amount) upon receipt by the Trust. In connection
with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Units are listed or market system through which Units are traded, the Trustee will, if required by such securities exchange or market system, use all reasonable efforts to determine the
Quarterly Distribution Amount and report such amount to the exchange or market system at such time as may be required by such securities exchange or market system. 
 Section 3.15. Divestiture of Units. If at any time the Trust or the Trustee is named a party in any judicial or administrative proceeding which seeks the cancellation or forfeiture of any
property in which the Trust has an interest because of the nationality, or any other status, of any one or more Unitholders, the following procedures will be applicable: 

(a) The Trustee will promptly give written notice (“Notice”) to each Unitholder
(“Ineligible Holder”) whose nationality or other status is an issue in the proceeding as to the existence of such controversy related to the Royalties, the Trust or the Units. The Notice will contain a reasonable summary of
such controversy and will constitute a demand to each Ineligible Holder that he dispose of his Units to a party which would not be an Ineligible Holder within 30 days after the date of the Notice. 

(b) If any Ineligible Holder fails to dispose of his Units as required by the Notice, Depositor will have the right to
purchase, and will purchase, any such Units at any time during the 90 days after the expiration of the 30-day period specified in the Notice; provided that in no case shall Depositor be required to purchase Units for an aggregate purchase price in
excess of $1 million (“IH Purchase Cap”). The purchase price on a per Unit basis will be determined as of the last Business Day (“Determination Day”) preceding the end of the 30-day period specified in
the Notice and will equal the following per Unit amount: (i) if the Units are then listed on a securities exchange the price will equal the closing price of the Units on such exchange (or, if the Units are then listed on more than one exchange,
on the largest such exchange in terms of the volume of 

  
 19 









 
Units traded thereon during the preceding twelve months) on the Determination Day if any Units were sold on such exchange on such day or, if not, on the last preceding day on which any Units were
sold on such exchange; (ii) if the Units are not then listed on any securities exchange, but are traded through a market system, the price will equal the mean between the closing bid and asked prices for the Units in such market system on the
Determination Day if quotations for such prices on such day are available or, if not, on the last preceding day for which such quotations are available; or (iii) if the Units are not then listed on any stock exchange or traded through any
market system, the price will be determined by dividing the present value of the estimated discounted future net revenues attributable to proved reserves of the Royalties as reflected in the latest Reserve Report prepared for the Trust, prepared
using a discount rate of ten percent (10%) or such other rate required by the SEC and otherwise in accordance with such other criteria as shall then be prescribed by the SEC as contemplated by Section 3.17 (minus all liabilities of
the Trust) by the number of Units (including the Units to be purchased) then outstanding. Depositor shall tender to the Trustee the aggregate purchase price for the Units to be purchased pursuant to this Section 3.15 by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to the account of the Trustee set forth on Schedule 1 (or such other account as designated in writing by the Trustee after the date hereof), and the Trustee shall tender the above cash purchase price to each
Ineligible Holder at his address as shown on the records of the Trustee or the nominee holder through which the Ineligible Holder holds such Units, either in person or by mail as provided in Section 12.6, accompanied by notice of
cancellation. Concurrently with such tender the Trustee shall reflect the purchase of such Units then owned by such Ineligible Holder and for which tender has been made, and the Trustee shall reflect such purchase in the records of the Trustee and
instruct the transfer agent for the Units, if there shall then be one other than the Trustee, in writing to reflect such purchase in the records of such transfer agent. Upon such purchase, all interests, rights and benefits of the Ineligible Holder
as a Unitholder shall terminate. In the event the tender is refused by the Ineligible Holder or if the tendered sum is returned to the Trustee, the tendered sum shall be held by the Trustee in a non- interest bearing account (unless the Trustee
determines that it is legally required to hold the amount in an interest-bearing account) for the benefit of such Ineligible Holder, until proper claim for same (together with interest, if any, accrued thereon) has been made by such Ineligible
Holder, but subject to applicable laws concerning unclaimed property. If a Determination Day shall occur prior to the earliest date at which a Reserve Report is available to the Trust and at such time, the Units are not then listed on any stock
exchange or traded through any market system, the price will be determined by the good faith resolution of Grantor’s Board of Directors, a copy of which, certified by Grantor’s Secretary, will be provided by Grantor to the Trustee promptly
upon the adoption thereof. 
 (c) To the extent that the aggregate purchase price of the Units held by Ineligible
Holders required to be purchased by the Depositor pursuant to Section 3.15(b) exceeds the IH Purchase Cap, then the Trustee shall have the right to cause the Trust to purchase, and shall cause the Trust to purchase, any such Units in
excess of the IH Purchase Cap to the extent cash is available to the Trust (pursuant to Section 3.7, Depositor Loans or Royalty proceeds) on the same terms and conditions and in the same manner as set forth in
Section 3.15(b). 

  
 20 









 (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Trustee shall
incur no liability to any Unitholder or to any other person as a result of any action the Trustee may take or fail to take under this Section 3.15 or otherwise as a result of the Trustee’s compliance or inability for any reason to
comply with its duties under this Section 3.15, unless such liability arises out of, or is based upon, any fraudulent misrepresentation, gross negligence, or willful misconduct of the Trustee or for acts or omissions in bad faith as
adjudicated by arbitration (pursuant to Article XI) or a final, nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. 
 Section 3.16. Filing of Securities Act Registration Statement, Exchange Act Registration Statement and Other Reports, Listing of Trust Units, etc.; Certain Fees and Expenses. 

(a) Prior to the execution and delivery hereof, Depositor, Grantor and the Regular Trustees have taken, at
Depositor’s and Grantor’s expense, all action necessary to (i) prepare and file the Securities Act Registration Statement with the SEC and request acceleration of the effectiveness of the Securities Act Registration Statement and
cause it to become effective so as to register, under the Securities Act, the offer and sale of the Units to the persons who subsequently became or will become Unitholders as contemplated by the Securities Act Registration Statement or the Exchange
Act Registration Statement, (ii) register or qualify or exempt from registration or qualification the offer and sale of the Units to such persons under all state securities or “Blue Sky” laws, (iii) register or take any other
action required under the laws of any other jurisdiction in connection with the offer and sale of the Units to such persons, (iv) prepare and file the Exchange Act Registration Statement with the SEC and register the Units under the Exchange
Act, (v) take all other actions required under all applicable laws in connection with the offer, sale and distribution of the Units as described in the Securities Act Registration Statement, and (vi) effect all other actions legally
required in connection with the offer and sale and distribution of the Units to the persons who subsequently became or will become Unitholders as contemplated by the Securities Act Registration Statement or the Exchange Act Registration Statement.
Depositor and Grantor shall use their commercially reasonable best efforts to maintain the registration under the Exchange Act. 
 (b) In the event that any further action is necessary in order to more fully effectuate the matters described in Section 3.16(a) (including the filing of any post-effective amendment to the
Securities Act Registration Statement and the Exchange Act Registration Statement), Depositor and Grantor, are each hereby authorized to act as agents of the Trust and take any such action on behalf of the Trust (including executing, by and on
behalf of the Trust, any documents incidental or related to the foregoing), all at the expense of Depositor, which shall pay all expenses relating to any such actions, and which expenses shall not count in the calculation of the Depositor Annual
Expense Cap and shall not constitute Depositor Loans. 
 (c) The Depositor shall use its commercially reasonable
best efforts to prepare, or cause to be prepared, and file, or cause to be filed, an application for the listing of the Units on the OTCQX tier of the OTC Markets (the “OTCQX”) promptly


  
 21 









 
following the Effective Time and take any other action and execute and deliver any certificate or documents that may be necessary to effect such listing, and the Trustee shall cooperate with
Depositor as directed by Depositor as necessary to effectuate such listing. If at any time the Units are not listed for trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) or NASDAQ but become eligible (including by satisfying
the minimum price criteria (the “MPC”)) for such a listing, then the Depositor shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to prepare, or cause to be prepared, and file, or cause to be filed, an application for the
listing of the Units on (i) if the Units satisfy the NYSE listing criteria (including the MPC), the NYSE or (ii) if the Units do not satisfy the NYSE listing criteria but satisfy the NASDAQ listing criteria (including the MPC), NASDAQ, and
take any other action and execute and deliver any certificates or documents that may be necessary to effect such listing, and the Trustee shall cooperate with Depositor as directed by Depositor as necessary to effectuate such listing. All costs and
expenses incurred by the Trust or Trustee in connection with the listing or admittance to quotation on the OTCQX, NYSE or NASDAQ, as applicable, or efforts to effect the same, whether or not successful, shall be paid by Depositor (or, if paid by the
Trustee, reimbursed by Depositor), and shall not be subject to or count against all or part of the Depositor Annual Expense Cap and shall not constitute Depositor Loans. If the Units are listed or admitted for quotation on the OTCQX, NYSE or NASDAQ,
then the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust and acting upon the advice of counsel, shall cause the Trust to comply with all rules, orders and regulations of the SEC and the OTCQX, NYSE or NASDAQ, as applicable, on which the Units are listed or admitted
for quotation, to which the Trust is subject as a result of the Units being registered under the Exchange Act and listed or admitted for quotation on the OTCQX, NYSE or NASDAQ, as applicable, and to take all such other actions directed by Depositor
and which may reasonably be taken which are necessary for the Units to remain registered under the Exchange Act and listed or admitted for quotation on the OTCQX, NYSE or NASDAQ until the Trust is terminated. In addition, the Trustee is authorized
to take, and the Trustee shall take, all actions to prepare and, to the extent required by this Agreement or by law, mail to Unitholders any reports, press release or statements, financial or otherwise, that the Trustee determines are required to be
provided to Unitholders by applicable law or governmental regulation or the requirements of any securities exchange or quotation system on which the Units are listed or admitted for quotation. In addition, the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust and
acting upon the advice of counsel, shall cause the Trust to comply with all of the applicable provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC related thereto, including but not limited to, establishing, evaluating and
maintaining a system of disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting and making all required certifications pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC. The Trustee shall execute,
by and on behalf of the Trust, any documents incidental or related to the objectives specified in this Section 3.16(c). The Trustee may at any time request directions or instructions from Depositor with respect to any matter described in
or contemplated by this Section 3.16, and shall be fully protected, and shall incur no liability, in relying on any such direction or instruction. For purposes of this Section 3.16, “commercially reasonable best
efforts” shall include, without limitation: (v) filing an application for listing ten (10) Business Days following (1) in the case of the OTCQX, the Closing and (2) in the case of the NYSE or NASDAQ, the Units 

  
 22 









 
meeting the MPC of the NYSE or NASDAQ, as applicable, for thirty (30) consecutive trading days; (w) taking all commercially reasonable steps necessary to pursue the listing application,
including cooperating with the applicable listing authority and responding to any requests for information or questions as soon as possible; (x) if a listing application is denied by the applicable listing authority for any reason, taking all
commercially reasonable steps necessary to eliminate the reason for the denial; (y) if a listing application is denied by the NYSE and the reasons for such denial cannot be resolved on a commercially reasonable basis, pursuing a listing
application with NASDAQ if the NASDAQ listing criteria (including satisfying the MPC for thirty (30) consecutive trading days) are met; and (z) reapplying for listing with the applicable listing authority if the reasons for a prior denial
of listing are no longer applicable. 
 (d) To the fullest extent permitted by law, Depositor and Grantor agree
to defend, indemnify and hold the Trust, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee and their respective officers, employees, agents and controlling persons harmless from and against any liabilities, obligations, costs, expenses, actions, suits, claims,
damages (including consequential damages and all other types of damages), losses, penalties, taxes, fees and other charges of any kind and nature whatsoever (collectively, “Expenses”), joint or several, or any action in
respect thereof, to which the Trust, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee or the officers, employees or agents of the Trustee or Delaware Trustee or any controlling person of the Trustee or Delaware Trustee becomes subject, under or with respect to the
Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other federal or state securities law or otherwise, insofar as such Expenses arise out of, or are based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any
Securities Act Registration Statement or Exchange Act Registration Statement, listing application with any national securities exchange, or any other document filed by or on behalf of the Trust or Grantor or Depositor with the SEC or pursuant to any
other federal or state securities law, or any other statement publicly made by or on behalf of the Trust or Grantor, or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in any Securities Act Registration Statement or Exchange Act Registration
Statement listing application with any national securities exchange, or any other document, or any other statement publicly made by or on behalf of the Trust or Grantor or Depositor, any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein not misleading; provided, however, that neither Grantor nor Depositor shall be liable in any case to the extent that any Expense arises out of, or is based upon, (A) any fraudulent misrepresentation,
gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Trustee or (B) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission included in any such Securities Act Registration Statement or Exchange Act Registration Statement, or
any other document filed by or on behalf of Depositor, Grantor, the Trust or the Trustee with the SEC, or any other statement publicly made by or on behalf of Depositor, Grantor, the Trust or the Trustee in reliance upon and in conformity with
written information furnished by or on behalf of the Trustee specifically for inclusion therein. This provision shall in no way limit the general rights to indemnification and contribution and limitations on liability of the Trust, the Trustee and
the Delaware Trustee set forth in Article VI of this Agreement or elsewhere herein, and no other provisions of this Agreement shall limit the provisions of this Section 3.16(d). Depositor and Grantor shall promptly reimburse the
Trustee and the Delaware Trustee for, or advance to the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee, any fees or expenses, 

  
 23 









 
including reasonable legal fees and fees and expenses of experts and other litigation expenses, incurred by the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee in connection with the investigation or defense of
any Expenses with respect to which the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee is entitled to indemnity by Grantor under this Section 3.16(d). 
 (e) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 3.16 shall for any reason (including, without limitation, due to violation of public policy) be unavailable to or insufficient to hold
harmless the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee in respect of any Expense or other liability, expense, claims, damages or loss as to which the Trustee or Delaware Trustee would otherwise be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this
Section 3.16, then Depositor, Grantor and the Trust shall, in lieu of indemnifying the Trustee or Delaware Trustee, as applicable, contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Trustee or Delaware Trustee as a result of such liability,
expense, claims, damages or loss, in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative fault of Depositor, Grantor (with respect to contribution by Depositor, the Trust or Grantor), the Trustee or Delaware Trustee with respect to the
events, acts or circumstances giving rise to the Expense or other liability, expense, claims, damages or loss, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations, all as further set forth in Section 6.4. 

Section 3.17. Reserve Reports. If Grantor advises the Trustee that the Royalties have quantifiable reserves related to them
as of December 31 of any year, the Trustee shall engage a firm of nationally recognized independent petroleum engineers to prepare a Reserve Report for the Royalties as of December 31 of such year. The engineers shall be directed to
prepare the Reserve Report in accordance with criteria established by the SEC, showing estimated proved oil and gas reserves attributable to the Royalties as of December 31 of such year and other reserve information required in order for the
Trustee to furnish the information required in Sections 5.3 and 5.4 of this Agreement. The independent petroleum engineers shall be selected by Grantor, with the consent of the Trustee (which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed). Such Reserve Report shall also show estimated future net revenues and the net present value (discounted at ten percent (10%) or such other rate required by the SEC) of the estimated future net revenues (calculated in
accordance with criteria established by the SEC) of proved reserves attributable to the Royalties, or such other information as may then be required by applicable rules. The costs of such Reserve Reports shall be paid in accordance with
Section 3.7. Grantor shall assist in the preparation of the Reserve Reports by furnishing all reserve, production and geophysical data in its possession relating to the Royalties reasonably requested by or on behalf of the independent
petroleum engineers as necessary to prepare such Reserve Reports; provided, however, that Grantor shall not be required to disclose or produce any information, documents or other materials which (a) were generated for analysis or
discussion purposes or contain interpretative data or (b) are subject to the attorney-client or attorney-work product privileges, or any other privileges to which Grantor may be entitled pursuant to applicable law. 

Section 3.18. [Reserved]. 
 Section 3.19. Unitholders. Upon request, the Trustee shall provide to any Unitholder of record a list of Unitholders of record as of the Quarterly Record Date prior to the date of receipt of
such request or as of any other date. The Trustee shall also have authority to provide any other listing of Unitholders to any Unitholder or any beneficial owner of Units to the extent required or permitted by applicable law. By accepting Units,
each Unitholder consents to the Trustee providing any such listing of Unitholders as described above. 

  
 24 









 Section 3.20. Call Rights. 

(a) At any time after the fifth anniversary of the date hereof, Depositor shall have the right and option (such right and
option, the “High-Value Call Option”) to cause the Trust to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Units from all the Unitholders at a price of $10 per Unit (appropriately adjusted for Unit subdivisions, splits or
combinations as described in Section 2.5(b) and Section 3.20(k)), without interest on or any other adjustment to such price per Unit. Depositor may exercise its High-Value Call Option by providing written notice (the
“HV Call Notice”) to the Trustee of its election to exercise its High-Value Call Option and tendering to the Trustee the full purchase price for all outstanding Units (other than Units held by Depositor or a Subsidiary of
Depositor) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Trustee set forth on Schedule 1 (or such other account as designated in writing by the Trustee after the date hereof). Any election by Depositor to exercise the
High-Value Call Option shall be irrevocable. The HV Call Notice shall state the record date (the “HV Call Record Date”) for which Unitholders shall be determined for purposes of the purchase of the Units pursuant to the
High-Value Call Option, which shall be a date not less than 15 nor more than 30 days after the date of the HV Call Notice. The transfer books for the Units shall be closed as of 11:59 pm, central time, on the HV Call Record Date (the “HV
Termination Time”) and no transfer of the Units shall be made or recognized after such date. The date and time of the HV Call Record Date and of the HV Termination Time shall be identical. 

(b) At any time after the fifth anniversary of the date hereof, if the Units are then listed for trading or admitted for
quotation on a national securities exchange or any quotation system and the VWAP per Unit is equal to $0.25 or less for the immediately preceding consecutive nine-calendar-month period (ending as of 11:59 p.m. eastern time on the last day of the
applicable calendar month (the “Nine-Month Period”), Depositor shall have the right and option (such right and option, the “Low-Value Call Option”) to cause the Trust to purchase all, but not less than
all, of the Units from all the Unitholders at a price of $0.25 per Unit (appropriately adjusted for Unit subdivisions, splits or combinations as described in Section 2.5(b) or Section 3.20(k)), without interest on or any
other adjustment to such price per Unit. Depositor may exercise its Low-Value Call Option by providing to the Trustee within 30 days of the last calendar day of the Nine-Month Period written notice (the “LV Call Notice”) of
its election to exercise its Low-Value Call Option, together with a certificate signed by a duly authorized officer of Depositor (on which the Trustee shall be entitled to rely) (the “VWAP Certificate”) certifying that the
VWAP per Unit is equal to $0.25 (appropriately adjusted for Unit subdivisions, splits or combinations as described in Section 2.5(b) or Section 3.20(k)) or less for such Nine-Month Period, and tendering to the Trustee the
full purchase price for all outstanding Units (other than Units held by Depositor or a Subsidiary of Depositor) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Trustee set forth on Schedule 1 (or such other account as
may be designated in writing by the Trustee after the date hereof). Any election by Depositor to exercise the Low-Value Call Option shall 

  
 25 









 
be irrevocable. The LV Call Notice shall state the record date (the “LV Call Record Date”) for which Unitholders shall be determined for purposes of the purchase of the
Units pursuant to the Low-Value Call Option, which shall be a date not less than 15 nor more than 30 days after the date of the LV Call Notice. The transfer books of the Units shall be closed as of 11:59 pm, central time, on the LV Call Record Date
(the “LV Termination Time” and, together with the HV Termination Time, the “Call Termination Time”) and no transfer of the Units shall be made or recognized after such date. The date and time of the LV
Call Record Date and of the LV Termination Time shall be identical. The Trustee shall have no duty or authority to question the VWAP Certificate or the matters stated therein and shall be entitled to rely thereon and shall be fully protected in
relying thereon without investigation. 
 (c) As soon as reasonably practicable after the date of either a HV
Call Notice or LV Call Notice, the Trustee shall mail or cause to be mailed to each Unitholder of record notice, substantially in form agreed between the Depositor and the Trustee, of the exercise of the High-Value Call Option or the Low-Value Call
Option, as applicable, and instructions for use in effecting the surrender of Book-Entry Units in exchange for the purchase price with respect to such Units. 
 (d) All outstanding Units as of the Call Termination Time shall be cancelled as of the Call Termination Time (including all Units held by Depositor) and no Unitholder shall thereafter have any Beneficial
Interest or other right or interest with respect to any Units and all interests, rights and benefits of such Unitholder as a Unitholder shall terminate other than the right to receive the purchase price for such Units as provided in this
Section 3.20 and an amount, net of any expenses of the Trustee in connection with the dissolution and termination of the Trust, equal to such Unitholder’s pro rata share of (i) any Quarterly Distribution Amount for which a
record date prior to the Call Termination Date has been publicly announced by the Trustee and for which a cash reserve has been established that has not been distributed to such Unitholder and (ii) the Trust’s share of the proceeds of
Production that has accrued but not yet been paid prior to the Call Termination Time (the “Accrued Production Amount”). Depositor shall certify to the Trustee the amount of the Accrued Production Amount, and the Trustee shall
be fully protected and shall incur no liability in relying on such certification. In lieu of paying the Accrued Production Amount to the Trust in accordance with the terms of the Conveyances, Depositor shall pay the Accrued Production Amount to the
Trust within five (5) Business Days after the occurrence of the Call Termination Time. Within ten (10) Business Days after the occurrence of the Call Termination Time, the Trustee shall distribute to each record holder of Units (other than
Depositor) as of the Call Termination Time, at such Unitholder’s address as shown on the records of the Trustee as provided in Section 12.6, together with notice of cancellation, an amount equal to the product of (i) the total
number of Units held by such Unitholder as of the Call Termination Time multiplied by (ii) the per Unit purchase price as provided in Section 3.20(a) or Section 3.20(b), as applicable. In the event the tender is refused
by a Unitholder or if the tendered sum is returned to the Trustee, the tendered sum shall be held by the Trustee in a trust account for the benefit of such Unitholder, until proper claim for same (together with interest accrued thereon) has been
made by such Unitholder, but subject to applicable laws concerning unclaimed property. In the event of 

  
 26 









 
a transfer of ownership of Units that is not registered in the transfer records of the Trustee, the purchase price to be paid with respect to such Units may be paid to such a transferee upon
delivery to the Trustee of all documents required by the Trustee (pursuant to Section 4.7 or otherwise) to evidence and effect such transfer and to evidence that any potentially applicable stock transfer or other similar taxes have been
paid or are not applicable are presented to the Trustee. No interest shall be paid or shall accrue on the cash payable upon surrender of any Book-Entry Unit. 
 (e) All costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee in connection with the exercise by Depositor of the High-Value Call Option or of the Low-Value Call Option shall be paid by Depositor (or, if paid by the
Trustee, reimbursed by Depositor), without limitation by the Depositor Annual Expense Cap or any other provision of this Agreement. All expenses and liabilities of the Trust at the Call Termination Time that exceed the funds then available to the
Trust shall be paid by Depositor (or, if paid by the Trustee, reimbursed by Depositor, without limitation by the Depositor Annual Expense Cap or any other provision of this Agreement). 

(f) The Trustee shall invest, as directed by Depositor, any funds tendered by Depositor to the Trustee pursuant to
Section 3.20(a) or Section 3.20(b), as applicable; provided, however, that no such investment or loss thereon shall affect the amounts payable to holders of Units pursuant to this Section 3.20, and following any
losses from any such investment, Depositor shall promptly provide additional funds to the Trustee for the benefit of the Unitholders at the Call Termination Time in the amount of such losses, which additional funds will be deemed to be part of the
purchase price for such Units. Any interest or other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to Depositor, upon demand. 
 (g) Any portion of the funds tendered by Depositor to the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.20(a) or Section 3.20(b), as applicable (including any interest or other amounts received
with respect thereto) that remains unclaimed by, or otherwise undistributed to, Unitholders for one year after the Call Termination Time shall be delivered to Depositor, upon demand, and any Unitholder who has not theretofore complied with this
Section 3.20 shall thereafter look only to Depositor as general creditor thereof, for satisfaction of its claim for the purchase price of the Units held by such Unitholder as of the HV Call Record Date or LV Call Record Date, as
applicable, without any interest thereon. 
 (h) Neither Depositor nor the Trustee shall be liable to any person
in respect of any portion of the funds tendered by Depositor to the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.20(a) or Section 3.20(b), as applicable, delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat
or similar law. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any portion of the funds tendered by Depositor to the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.20(a) or Section 3.20(b), as applicable, that remains undistributed to
the holders of Book-Entry Units as of the second anniversary of the Call Termination Time (or immediately prior to such earlier date on which such funds would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any governmental entity), shall, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, become the property of Depositor, free and clear of all claims or interest of any person previously entitled thereto. 

  
 27 









 (i) Depositor and the Trustee (without duplication) shall be entitled to
deduct and withhold from the purchase price and other amounts otherwise payable to any Unitholder upon the purchase of its Units pursuant to this Section 3.20 such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the
making of such payment under applicable tax law. Any amounts so deducted, withheld and paid over to the appropriate taxing authority shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Unitholder in respect of which such
deduction or withholding was made. 
 (j) If at any time the Trustee is uncertain about its duties pursuant to
this Section 3.20, or is subject to competing, conflicting or inconsistent demands in connection with any matter under any provision of this Agreement, the Trustee shall be fully protected and shall incur no liability to any Unitholder
or Depositor or to Grantor or to any other Person if the Trustee declines to take any action until (i) all such demands are resolved in a written agreement signed by all of the Persons having an interest in the matter, (ii) the Trustee has
received either (x) written instructions from Depositor (unless Depositor has a conflict of interest in the matter) or (y) a written opinion of counsel, in either case advising Trustee as to its duties or the manner in which to resolve
such uncertainties or competing, conflicting or inconsistent demands or (iii) Trustee has obtained an appropriate order from a court of competent jurisdiction. 

(k) In the event outstanding Units shall be subdivided or split into a greater number of Units, the price of the
High-Value Call Option (as defined in Section 3.20(a)) and the price of such Low-Value Call Option (as defined in Section 3.20(b)) in effect on the day upon which such subdivision or split becomes effective shall be
proportionately reduced, and, conversely, in the event outstanding Units shall each be combined into a smaller number of Units, the price of such High-Value Call Option (as defined in Section 3.20(a)) and the price of such Low-Value Call
Option (as defined in Section 3.20(b)) in effect on the day upon which such combination becomes effective shall be proportionately increased, such increase or reduction, as the case may be, to become effective immediately on the day upon
which such subdivision, split or combination becomes effective. 
 (l) Contemporaneously with the
Depositor’s delivery to the Trustee of the HV Call Notice or LV Call Notice, as applicable, Depositor shall deliver or cause to be delivered to each record holder of the Company Convertible Securities a copy of such HV Call Notice or LV Call
Notice. If any such holder of the Company Convertible Securities converts such Company Convertible Securities in accordance with the respective terms of the applicable underlying agreements prior to the HV Call Record Date or the LV Call Record
Date, as applicable, then such holder shall be deemed to hold the number of Units that would be distributed to such holder upon such conversion (whether or not such Units have been distributed to such holder) and shall be entitled to the purchase
price attributable to such Units upon exercise of the High-Value Call Option or Low-Value Call Option, as applicable. The Depositor shall notify the Trustee or transfer agent designated by the Trustee of such conversion in accordance with
Section 2.5.

 ARTICLE IV. 
 BENEFICIAL SHARES 
 Section 4.1. Creation and Distribution. The entire
Beneficial Interest shall be divided into [            ] Units (as adjusted to reflect any Unit subdivision, split or combination as described in Section 2.5(b) and
Section 3.20(k)). The Units shall be uncertificated and ownership thereof evidenced by entry of a notation in an ownership ledger maintained for such purpose by the Trustee or a transfer agent designated by the Trustee. All Units issued
by the Trust in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. The Unitholders shall be the sole beneficial owners of the Trust Estate and the Trust. 

Section 4.2. Beneficial Interest of Unitholders; Limitation on Personal Liability of Trust Unitholders. Each Unit shall
represent pro rata undivided ownership of the Beneficial Interest and shall entitle its holder to participate pro rata in the rights and benefits of the Unitholders under this Agreement. Each Unitholder (by assignment or otherwise) shall take and
hold each Unit subject to all the terms and provisions of this Agreement and the Conveyances, which shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of such Unitholder and the heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns of such Unitholder.
By an assignment or transfer of one or more Units the assignor thereby shall, effective as of the close of business on the date of transfer and with respect to such assigned or transferred Unit or Units, part with, except as required by federal or
state tax laws or provided in Section 4.4 in the case of a transfer after a Quarterly Record Date and prior to the corresponding quarterly payment date, (i) all his Beneficial Interest attributable thereto; (ii) all his rights
in, to and under such Unit; and (iii) all interests, rights and benefits under this Trust of a Unitholder which are attributable to such Unit or Units as against all other Unitholders and the Trustee. The Units and the rights, benefits and
interests attributable to them (including, without limiting the foregoing, the entire Beneficial Interest) are and shall be held and construed to be in all respects personal property, and Units shall be bequeathed, assigned, disposed of and
distributed as personal property. No Unitholder as such shall have any legal title in or to any real or personal property interest which is a part of the Trust Estate, including, without limiting the foregoing, the Royalties or any part thereof, but
the sole interest of each Unitholder shall be such Unitholder’s Beneficial Interest and the obligation of the Trustee to hold, manage and dispose of the Trust Estate and to account for the proceeds thereof as herein provided. No Unitholder
shall have the right to call for or demand or secure any partition or distribution of the Royalties during the continuance of the Trust or during the period of liquidation and winding up under Section 9.3 of this Agreement or at any
other time. Pursuant to Section 3803(a) of the Delaware Trust Act, the Unitholders shall be entitled, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to the same limitation of personal liability extended to stockholders of private corporations for
profit organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. 
 Section 4.3. [Reserved].

Section 4.4. Registration and Transfer of Units. The Units shall be transferable as provided herein, and then only on the records of the Trustee and, except as provided in
Section 3.15 hereof, upon compliance with such reasonable regulations as the Trustee may prescribe. No service charge shall be made to Unitholders or Transferees for any transfer of a Unit, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any expense, tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto. Until any such transfer is completed, the Trustee may treat the owner of any Unit as shown by its records as the owner of the Unit for all
purposes and shall not be charged with notice of any claim or demand respecting such Unit or the Beneficial Interest represented thereby by any other Person. Any such transfer of a Unit shall, as to the Trust and the Trustee, transfer to the
Transferee as of the close of business on the date of transfer all of the Beneficial Interest of the transferor; provided, however, that a transfer of a Unit after any Quarterly Record Date shall not transfer to the Transferee the
right of the transferor to any sum payable to such transferor as title holder of the Unit of record on such Quarterly Record Date or any right to vote on any matter as to which the record date for the vote is prior to the transfer. As to matters
affecting the title, ownership, warranty or transfer of Units and Certificates, except as provided to the contrary herein, Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code, the Uniform Act for Simplification of Fiduciary Security Transfers, and other
statutes and rules with respect to the transfer of securities, each as adopted and then in force in the State of Delaware, shall, govern and apply. Neither the death of any Unitholder or any other event shall entitle any Unitholder or Transferee or
other Person to an accounting or valuation for any purpose. 
 Section 4.5. [Reserved]. 

Section 4.6. Protection of Trustee. At any time, the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee may request certification of any fact,
circumstance, computation or other matter relevant to the Trust or the Trustee’s (or Delaware Trustee’s) performance of its duties hereunder, and the Trustee or Delaware Trustee, as applicable, shall be fully protected in relying on any
such certification or other statement or advice from Grantor or Depositor or any officer or other employee of Grantor or Depositor or any agent of any of them. Without limiting the foregoing, the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee shall be fully
protected in acting or relying upon any notice, certificate, assignment or other document or instrument believed by the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee to be genuine and to have been signed by the proper party or parties, including, without
limitation, any instructions or documents received from Grantor or Depositor in connection with this Agreement. Except as provided herein to the contrary, the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee are specifically authorized to rely upon the application
of Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code, the application of the Uniform Act for Simplification of Fiduciary Security Transfers and the application of other statutes and rules with respect to the transfer of securities, each as adopted and then
in force in the State of Delaware, as to all matters affecting title, ownership, warranty or transfer of the Units, without any personal liability for such reliance, and the indemnity granted under Section 6.2 of this Agreement shall
specifically extend to any matters arising as a result thereof. In accepting and performing its duties hereunder the Trustee acts not in its individual capacity, and all persons having any claim against the Trustee by reason of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement or any other Trust related document or agreement shall look only to the Trust’s property for payment or satisfaction thereof. No provision of this Agreement shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its personal
funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of its rights or powers hereunder. Under no circumstances shall the Trustee be personally liable for any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement, or indebtedness of the Trust.

 Section 4.7. Determination of Ownership of Units. In addition to the rights and
protections of and for the Trustee set forth in Section 4.6 of this Agreement and elsewhere in this Agreement, in the event of any disagreement between Persons claiming to be Transferees of any Unit, or in the event of any question on
the part of the Trustee when presented with a request for transfer of a Unit that the Trustee believes is not fully resolved by opinions of counsel or other documents obtained in connection therewith, and in addition to any other rights it may have
under applicable law, the Trustee shall be entitled, at its option, to refuse to recognize any such claim so long as such disagreement or question shall continue. In so refusing, the Trustee may elect to refuse or refrain to act with respect to
making delivery or other disposition of the interest represented by the Unit involved, or any part thereof, or of any sum or sums of money, accrued or accruing thereunder, and, in so doing, the Trustee shall not be or become liable to any Person for
the failure or refusal of the Trustee to comply with such conflicting claims, and the Trustee shall be entitled to continue so to refrain and refuse so to act, until: 

(a) the rights of the adverse claimants or the questions of the Trustee have been adjudicated by arbitration (pursuant to
Article XI) or by a final nonappealable judgment by a court assuming and having jurisdiction of the parties and the interest and money involved, or 
 (b) all differences have been resolved by valid agreement between such parties and the Trustee shall have been notified thereof in writing signed by all of the interested parties. 

Section 4.8. Transfer Agent. The Trustee may serve as transfer agent or may designate a transfer agent at any time. The
initial transfer agent shall be American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC. The Trustee may dismiss the transfer agent and designate a successor transfer agent at any time with or without reason. Any entity serving as transfer agent shall
be entitled to payment of its fees in accordance with the terms of its engagement. 
 ARTICLE V. 

ACCOUNTING AND DISTRIBUTION; REPORTS 
 Section 5.1. Fiscal Year and Accounting Method. The fiscal year of the Trust shall be the calendar year. The books and records of the Trust shall be maintained and the financial statements of
the Trust shall be prepared in accordance with applicable requirements that will provide appropriate financial data responsive to the reasonable needs of the Unitholders and which shall comply with Sections 5.3 and 5.4, which may
be a system of accounting other than U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). 

Section 5.2. Distributions. The Trustee shall determine the Quarterly Distribution Amount for each Quarter and shall
establish a cash reserve equal to such amount for distribution to Unitholders of record as of the Quarterly Record Date for such Quarter. On the Distribution Date for such Quarterly Distribution Amount, the Trust will distribute the Quarterly
Distribution Amount pro rata to the Unitholders of record on the applicable Quarterly Record Date. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Trust shall not make any distribution to the Unitholders unless and until the Trust has received
revenues generated from the Royalties and has paid any expenses or liabilities of the Trust then due and payable (including any amounts 

  
 31 









 
payable to Grantor or Depositor) and funded any reserves the Trustee then considers advisable in amounts the Trustee deems appropriate. Nothing herein shall prevent or restrict payments to
Unitholders pursuant to Section 3.15 or Section 3.20. 
 Section 5.3. Income Tax Reporting.
For federal and state income tax purposes, the Trust shall file such returns and statements as it is advised are required to comply with applicable provisions of the Code and regulations and any applicable state laws and regulations, in either case
to permit each Unitholder to report such Unitholder’s share of the income and deductions of the Trust. The Trust shall treat all income and deductions of the Trust for each Quarter as having been realized on the Quarterly Record Date for such
month unless otherwise advised by its tax advisors, counsel or the Internal Revenue Service. The Trust shall report as a grantor trust until and unless it is advised by tax counsel or other tax experts that such reporting is no longer proper or
appropriate. Within 75 days following the end of each fiscal year, the Trust shall mail, to each Unitholder of record on a Quarterly Record Date during such fiscal year, a report which shall show in reasonable detail such information as is necessary
to permit all holders of record of Units on a Quarterly Record Date during such fiscal year to make calculations necessary for tax purposes. 
 Section 5.4. Reports to Unitholders. 
 (a) Within 45
days following the end of each of the first three Quarterly Periods of each calendar year (or such other period of time as may be required by the rules and regulations of the SEC adopted with respect to the Exchange Act or of any U.S. securities
exchange or quotation system on which the Units are listed or admitted to trading), the Trust shall mail to each Person who was a Unitholder of record on the Quarterly Record Date for such Quarterly Period a report, which may be a copy of the
Trust’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q under the Exchange Act (or any successor form or report under the Exchange Act or any successor legislation), which shall show in reasonable detail the assets and liabilities and receipts and disbursements
of the Trust for such Quarterly Period; provided, however, the obligation to mail a report to each Unitholder of record shall be deemed to be satisfied if the Trust files a copy of its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (or any successor
form or report) on the Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval (EDGAR) system maintained by the SEC or any successor system or otherwise makes such report publicly available on an Internet website that is generally accessible to the
public or otherwise make such report publicly available. 
 (b) Within 90 days following the end of each fiscal
year (or such shorter period of time as may be required by the rules and regulations of the SEC adopted with respect to the Exchange Act or of any securities exchange or quotation system on which the Units are listed or admitted to trading), the
Trust shall mail to each Person who was a Unitholder of record on a date to be selected by the Trustee an annual report, which may be a copy of the Trust’s Annual Report on Form 10-K under the Exchange Act (or any successor form or report under
the Exchange Act or any successor legislation), containing financial statements audited by an independent registered public accounting firm selected by the Trustee, plus such annual reserve information regarding the Royalties as may be required by
the rules and regulations of the SEC; provided, however, the obligation to 

  
 32 









 
mail a report to each Unitholder of record shall be deemed to be satisfied if the Trust files a copy of its Annual Report on Form 10-K (or any successor form or report) on the EDGAR system
maintained by the SEC or any successor system or otherwise makes such report publicly available on an Internet website that is generally accessible to the public or otherwise makes such report publicly available. 

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trust shall furnish to the Unitholders such reports, in such manner and at such
times, as are at any time required by law or by rules or regulations of any U.S. securities exchange or quotation system on which the Units are listed or admitted for trading, if applicable. 

Section 5.5. Filings. The Trust shall make all Exchange Act filings required by applicable law or regulation. Depositor or
Grantor shall prepare and file all filings and reports required under state securities or Blue Sky laws. The Trust shall take all reasonable actions to prepare and mail to Unitholders any reports, press releases or statements, financial or
otherwise, that Depositor or Grantor notifies the Trust in writing are required to be provided by the Trust to Unitholders by law or governmental regulation or the requirements of any securities exchange or quotation system on which the Units are
listed or admitted for trading, if applicable, subject to receipt by the Trust of a satisfactory opinion of counsel confirming the necessity of such reports, if such an opinion is deemed necessary by the Trustee; provided, however, the obligation to
mail such reports, press releases or statements, financial or otherwise, to each Unitholder of record shall be deemed satisfied if such information is filed on the EDGAR system maintained by the SEC or any successor system or is otherwise made
publicly available on an Internet website that is generally accessible to the public or otherwise. 
 Section 5.6.
Information to be Supplied by Grantor, Depositor and Trust. Depositor or Grantor shall provide, or cause to be provided, to the Trust on a timely basis (a) annual audited financial statements of the Trust and quarterly unaudited
financial statements of the Trust and such other information as the Trustee may reasonably require in order for the Trust to obtain a third party reserve report or other reports, in each case as shall be necessary for Trust to comply with its
reporting obligations pursuant to the Exchange Act and/or the requirements of any securities exchange or quotation system on which the Units are listed or admitted for trading and (b) such other information available to Depositor or Grantor
concerning the Royalties (including information with respect to the properties burdened by the Royalties) and related matters as shall be necessary for the Trust to comply with its reporting obligations pursuant to the Exchange Act, the requirements
of any securities exchange or quotation system on which the Units are listed or admitted for trading and this Agreement, if applicable, including, without limitation, Sections 5.3, 5.4 and 5.5 hereof. For purposes of this
Section 5.6, the phrase “timely basis” shall mean promptly and not less than 10 Business Days prior to the date on which the Trust is required to comply with such reporting obligations. In addition, Depositor or Grantor shall
provide to the Trust on a timely basis, for use in connection with the Trust’s annual report on Form 10-K and quarterly report on Form 10-Q (or successor forms or reports), all information required to comply with the applicable Exchange Act
requirements (including, if so required, a “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of operations” relating to such financial statements) and such further information as may be required by such reports
or other required reports and the related rules and regulations as they may exist from time to time. In addition to the financial statements and other information or reports to be prepared by 


  
 33 









 
Depositor or Grantor for the Trust, Depositor or Grantor shall provide to the Trust in connection with such financial statements and other information or reports, such supporting information,
data, documentation and other information or materials, and such certifications of Depositor or Grantor, as may be reasonably requested by the Trustee from time to time for the purpose of confirming or verifying any of the financial statements and
other information or reports to be prepared by Depositor or Grantor for the Trust, and the Trust and the Trustee shall be entitled to rely thereon without investigation and shall be fully protected and incur no liability in doing so. Such supporting
information, data, documentation and other information or materials, and such certifications of Depositor or Grantor, shall be provided to the Trust on a timely basis. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement or the
Conveyances, Depositor, Grantor and their Affiliates shall not be required to disclose, produce or prepare any information, documents or other materials which (i) were generated for analysis or discussion purposes or contain interpretative data
or (ii) are subject to the attorney-client or attorney-work-product privileges, or any other privileges to which they may be entitled pursuant to applicable law. 
 Section 5.7. Reliance on Information. The Trustee, so long as acting in good faith, shall be entitled to rely, without investigation, on all information provided to it by Depositor or Grantor
for purposes of complying with the reporting obligations of the Trust as contemplated by Section 5.6, including, without limitation, information regarding depletion and entitlement to tax credits under Section 29 of the Code.
Notwithstanding any time limit imposed by applicable laws or regulations or by the provisions of this Agreement, if, due to the unavailability prior to the expiration of any such time limit of information necessary, or a delay in receipt by the
Trustee of information necessary, for preparation of a report required to be filed, made or delivered by the Trustee, the Trustee shall be unable to prepare and file or mail such report within such time limit, the Trustee shall prepare and file or
mail such report as soon as practicable after such information is received. 
 ARTICLE VI. 

LIABILITY OF TRUSTEE, INDEMNIFICATION AND METHOD OF SUCCESSION 
 Section 6.1. Liability of Trustee and Delaware Trustee. 

(a) Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, neither the Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee shall have any duties or
liabilities, including fiduciary duties, to the Trust or any Unitholder; provided that nothing herein shall be deemed to eliminate the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing. To the extent that, at law or in equity, the Trustee
and the Delaware Trustee have duties, including fiduciary duties, and liabilities relating thereto to the Trust or any Unitholder, the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee shall not be liable to the Trust or to any Unitholder for its good faith reliance
on the provisions of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, to the fullest extent permitted by law, no person other than the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee shall have any duties (including fiduciary duties) or liabilities at law or in equity
to the Trust, any Unitholder or any other Person. The provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they restrict or eliminate the duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities of the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee or any other Person
otherwise existing at law or in equity are agreed by the parties hereto and the Trust to replace such other duties and liabilities of the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee and such other Persons. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement,
the Trustee shall not be liable to Depositor, Grantor, any Unitholder or any other Person under any circumstances for special, punitive or consequential damages or lost profits. 

  
 34 









 (b) Each of the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee, in carrying out its powers
and performing its duties, may act in its discretion directly, or at the expense of the Trust, through agents or attorneys pursuant to agreements entered into with any of them, and shall be personally or individually liable only for fraud, willful
misconduct or gross negligence or for acts or omissions in bad faith as adjudicated by arbitration (subject to the Trustee’s consent to such arbitration in accordance with Article IX) or a final, nonappealable judgment of a court of
competent jurisdiction and shall not individually or personally be liable for any act or omission of any agent or employee of the Trustee or Delaware Trustee, as applicable, unless the Trustee or Delaware Trustee, as applicable, has acted in bad
faith or with willful misconduct or gross negligence in the selection and retention of such agent or employee. 

Section 6.2. Indemnification of Trustee and Delaware Trustee. The Trustee, the Delaware Trustee and their respective
officers, agents and employees when acting in such capacity shall be indemnified and held harmless by, and receive reimbursement from, the Trust Estate, Depositor and Grantor, jointly and severally, against and from any and all liabilities,
obligations, costs, expenses, actions, suits, claims, damages (including consequential damages and all other types of damages), losses, penalties, taxes, fees and other charges of any kind and any nature whatsoever (“Article VI
Expenses”) incurred by it individually or as Trustee or Delaware Trustee in the administration of the Trust and the Trust Estate or any part or parts thereof, including, without limitation, any Article VI Expenses arising out of or in
connection with any liability under Environmental Laws, or in the doing of any act done or performed or omission occurring on account of its being Trustee or Delaware Trustee or acting in such capacity, except any Article VI Expenses to which it is
liable under Section 6.1. Each of the Trustee and Delaware Trustee shall have a first priority lien upon the Trust Estate to secure it for such indemnification and reimbursement and for compensation to be paid to Trustee and the Delaware
Trustee. Neither the Trustee or Delaware Trustee nor any officer, agent or employee of the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee shall be entitled to any reimbursement or indemnification from any Unitholder for any Article VI Expenses incurred by the
Trustee, the Delaware Trustee or any such officer, agent or employee, their right of reimbursement and indemnification, if any, being limited solely to the Trust Estate (and Depositor and Grantor as provided herein), whether or not the Trust Estate
is exhausted without full reimbursement or indemnification of the Trustee, Delaware Trustee or any such officer, agent or employee. The Trust Estate, Depositor or Grantor shall, promptly upon request, reimburse the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee
for, or promptly upon request advance to the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee, any fees or expenses, including reasonable legal expenses, incurred or estimated to be incurred by the Trustee or Delaware Trustee in connection with the investigation or
defense of any Article VI Expenses with respect to which the Trustee or Delaware Trustee is or may be entitled to indemnity by Depositor and Grantor under this Section 6.2. All indemnification and contribution and other rights of the
Trustee and the Delaware Trustee set forth in this Article VI, and all Protective Provisions set forth in this Article VI, are in addition to the other indemnification, contribution and other rights and Protective Provisions
set forth elsewhere in this Agreement. All of the indemnification and contribution and Protective Provisions and other rights of the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee set forth elsewhere in this Agreement are in addition to the indemnification and
contribution and Protective Provisions and other rights of the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee set forth in this Article VI. 

  
 35 









 Section 6.3. Priority and Continuity of Indemnification Obligations. Any Article
VI Expenses for which the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee or any officer, agent, employee or controlling person of the Trustee or Delaware Trustee may be entitled to indemnification, reimbursement, advancement or contribution shall be first satisfied
out of the Trust Estate prior to any indemnification, reimbursement, advancement or contribution from Grantor or Depositor; provided, that Grantor or Depositor shall be required to provide such indemnification at any time and from time to
time that cash in the Trust Estate or cash reasonably anticipated to be available is inadequate to satisfy and discharge such Article VI Expenses or if, for any reason (other than failure of the Trustee to cause the Trust to pay such requested
amounts if cash is available to the Trust Estate), the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee has not received any amount it has requested from the Trust Estate within ten days after making request therefor. The obligations of the Trust Estate, Depositor
and Grantor to provide indemnification, reimbursement, advancement of expenses and contribution to the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee and their respective officers, agents, employees or controlling persons under this Agreement shall survive the
resignation or removal of the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee and the termination of the Trust and this Agreement. 

Section 6.4. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Agreement shall for any reason (including, without
limitation, due to violation of public policy) be unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee in respect of any Article VI Expense or other liability, expense, claims, damages or loss as to which the Trustee
or Delaware Trustee would otherwise be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Sections 3.16(d) or 6.2, then Depositor, Grantor and the Trust shall, in lieu of indemnifying the Trustee or Delaware Trustee, as applicable,
contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Trustee or Delaware Trustee as a result of such liability, expense, claims, damages or loss, in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative fault of Depositor, Grantor (with respect
to contribution by Depositor, the Trust or Grantor), the Trustee or Delaware Trustee with respect to the events, acts or circumstances giving rise to the Article VI Expense or other liability, expense, claims, damages or loss, as well as any other
relevant equitable considerations. For purposes of determining contribution liability with respect to claims based upon the Exchange Act or other securities laws, relative fault shall be determined by reference to whether the untrue or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by Depositor or Grantor or by the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee. The Trustee and the Delaware Trustee shall look first to
the Trust Estate for contribution under this Section 6.4, and then to Depositor or Grantor to the extent the assets of the Trust Estate are not sufficient to reimburse the Trustee or Delaware Trustee fully for all such Article VI Expense
or other liability, expense, claims, damages or loss; provided, however, that if, for any reason (other than the failure of the Trustee to cause the Trust to pay such requested amounts if cash is available to the Trust Estate), the Trustee or the
Delaware Trustee has not received any amount it has requested from the Trust Estate within ten days after making request therefor, Depositor or Grantor shall pay such amount promptly. 

  
 36 









 Section 6.5. Indemnification Procedures. If any action or proceeding shall be
brought or asserted against the Trust, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee or any officer, Agent, Affiliate or employee thereof (each referred to as an “Indemnified Party” and, collectively, the “Indemnified
Parties”) in respect of which indemnity may be sought from Depositor or Grantor or the Trust (the “Indemnifying Party”) pursuant to Sections 3.16(d) or 6.2 of this Agreement, of which the
Indemnified Party shall have received notice, the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party in writing, and the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to
the Indemnified Party and the payment of all costs and expenses; provided, however, that the failure so to notify the Indemnifying Party of the commencement of any such action or proceeding shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from
any liability that it may have to any Indemnified Party except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced or damaged by the failure to receive prompt notice. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any
such action and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party unless (a) the Indemnifying Party has agreed to pay such fees and expenses, (b) the
Indemnifying Party shall have failed to assume the defense of such action or proceeding and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory (including the qualifications of such counsel) to the Indemnified Party on any such action or proceeding or
(c) the named parties to any such action or proceeding include both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party (in which case, if the Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel
at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action or proceeding on behalf of the Indemnified Party and the Indemnified Party may employ such counsel for the defense of such
action or proceeding as is reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnifying Party; it being understood, however, that except in the case of the addition of counsel as contemplated above or caused by the existence or development of a conflict rendering
unified representation impermissible or unadvisable, the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any one such action or proceeding or separate but substantially similar or related actions or proceedings in the same jurisdiction arising out
of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys for the Indemnified Parties at any time). The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any such
action or proceeding effected without the written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) of the Indemnifying Party, but, if settled with such written consent, or if there be a final judgment for the
plaintiff in any such action or proceeding, the Indemnifying Party agrees (to the extent stated above) to indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Party from and against any Expenses by reason of such settlement or judgment. The Indemnifying
Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, settle or compromise any claim or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to which indemnification is being sought hereunder unless such settlement, compromise or
consent (a) includes an unconditional release of Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such claim, (b) does not contain any admission or statement suggesting any wrongdoing or liability on behalf of Indemnified Party, and
(c) does not contain any equitable order, judgment or term (other than the fact of payment or the amount of such payment) that in any manner affects, restrains or interferes with the business of Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party and the
Indemnifying Party (if not Grantor or Depositor) shall, if so requested by Grantor or Depositor, provide reports to Grantor or Depositor on the status of such actions or proceedings; provided, 

  
 37 









 however, that no Indemnified Party or Indemnifying Party shall be required to disclose or produce any
information, documents or other materials that are subject to the attorney-client or attorney-work product privileges, or any other privileges to which such party may be entitled pursuant to applicable law. 

Section 6.6. Resignation of Trustee. 
 (a) The Trustee may resign, with or without cause, at any time by notice to Depositor and each of the then Unitholders of record. Such notice shall specify a date when such resignation shall take effect,
which shall be a Business Day not fewer than sixty (60) days after the date such notice is mailed; provided, however, that in no event shall any resignation of the Trustee be effective until a successor Trustee has accepted
appointment as successor Trustee. In case of such resignation, the Trustee may nominate a successor Trustee which shall be approved and appointed by Depositor without a meeting or vote of the Unitholders, provided such successor meets the standards
to serve as the Trustee as provided herein. If the Trustee has given notice of resignation in accordance with this Section 6.6, such resignation is with cause and a successor has not accepted its appointment as successor Trustee during
the 90-day period following the receipt by Depositor of such notice of resignation, the annual fee payable to the Trustee in accordance with Section 7.1 and Schedule 2 hereto shall be increased as of the end of such 90-day
period by 5%, and shall be further increased by 5% for each month or portion thereof thereafter (to a maximum of two times the fee payable at the time the notice of resignation was received by Depositor) until a successor has accepted its
appointment as successor Trustee. The incremental amount of any such increased fees shall be paid to the Trustee on a monthly basis at the beginning of each such month or portion thereof. 

(b) If at any time (a) the Trustee has not received compensation for its services or expenses or other amounts owed
to the Trustee pursuant to Article VII, (b) Depositor has failed to fully fund a Depositor Loan in a reasonably timely manner after the Trustee has requested such Depositor Loan pursuant to Section 7.5 or has failed to
pay Trust Obligations up to the Depositor Annual Expense Cap in accordance with Section 3.7, (c) the Trust Obligations exceed the amount of funds of the Trust available to pay such Trust Obligations, and (d) at any time that a
stand-by reserve account or letter of credit is available to the Trustee as contemplated by Section 12.11, the Trustee is entitled to draw on the stand-by reserve account or letter of credit, then the Trustee shall be permitted to resign
for cause. In the case of such resignation for cause, the Trustee may at its election cause the sale of the Royalties and dissolve, windup and thereafter terminate the Trust in accordance with Article IX, and shall be fully protected and
shall incur no liability to Depositor, Grantor, any Unitholder or any other Person for doing so. No such election by the Trustee to dissolve, windup and thereafter terminate the Trust in accordance with this Section 6.6(b) or
Article IX shall result or be deemed to result in any waiver or release of any right or protection of the Trustee or any waiver or release of any Protective Provision set forth in this Agreement. 

  
 38 









 Section 6.7. Removal of Trustee. The Trustee or Delaware Trustee may be removed,
with or without cause, at a meeting held in accordance with the requirements of Article VIII by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of all the Units then outstanding; provided, however, that any removal of the
Trustee or Delaware Trustee shall be effective only at such time as a qualified successor (including, in the case of the Delaware Trustee, fulfillment of the requirements of Section 3807(a) of the Delaware Trust Act) Trustee or Delaware Trustee
has accepted appointment as successor Trustee or Delaware Trustee. 
 Section 6.8. Appointment of Successor Trustee.
Except to the extent otherwise provided in Section 6.6, in the event of a vacancy in the position of Trustee or Delaware Trustee or if the Trustee or Delaware Trustee has given notice of its intention to resign, the holders of the
majority of the Units present or represented at a meeting held in accordance with the requirements of Article VIII may appoint a successor Trustee or Delaware Trustee. Except to the extent otherwise provided in Section 6.6,
nominees for appointment may be made by (a) the resigned, resigning or removed Trustee or Delaware Trustee, (b) any Unitholder or Unitholders owning of record at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the Units then outstanding or
(c) Depositor. Any such successor Trustee shall be a bank or trust company having capital, surplus and undivided profits (as of the end of its last fiscal year prior to its appointment) of at least $100,000,000. Any successor Delaware Trustee
shall be a bank or trust company having its principal place of business in the State of Delaware. In the event that a new Trustee or Delaware Trustee has not been approved within sixty (60) days after the notice of resignation, a vote of a
majority of the holders of Units removing the Trustee or Delaware Trustee, or other occurrence of a vacancy in the position of Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, a successor Trustee or Delaware Trustee may be appointed by any State or Federal District
Court having jurisdiction in New York, New York or Wilmington, Delaware, upon the application of Depositor, Grantor, any Unitholder or the Trustee or Delaware Trustee tendering its resignation as Trustee or Delaware Trustee, and in the event any
such application is filed, such court may appoint a temporary trustee (which shall not be required to meet the financial standards required for the appointment of a Trustee) at any time after such application is filed, which shall, pending the final
appointment of a Trustee or Delaware Trustee, have such powers and duties as the court appointing such temporary trustee shall provide in its order of appointment, consistent with the provisions of this Agreement. Nothing herein shall prevent the
same Person from serving as both the Delaware Trustee and the Trustee if it meets the qualifications thereof. 
 Immediately
upon the appointment of any successor Trustee or Delaware Trustee, all rights, titles, duties, powers and authority of the predecessor Trustee or Delaware Trustee hereunder (except for the predecessor Trustee’s or Delaware Trustee’s rights
to amounts payable under Section 3.16(d), or Article VI or Article VII prior to the appointment of such successor Trustee or Delaware Trustee) shall be vested in and undertaken by the successor Trustee or Delaware Trustee,
which shall be entitled to receive from the predecessor Trustee or Delaware Trustee all of the Trust Estate held by it hereunder net of any amounts then owed to the predecessor Trustee or Delaware Trustee and all records and files in connection
therewith. Any resigning or removed Trustee or Delaware Trustee shall account to its successor for its administration of the Trust. No successor Trustee or Delaware Trustee shall be obligated to examine or seek alteration of any account of any
preceding Trustee or Delaware Trustee, nor shall any successor Trustee or Delaware Trustee be liable personally for failing to do so or for any act or omission of any preceding Trustee or Delaware Trustee. The preceding sentence shall not prevent
any successor Trustee, Delaware Trustee or anyone else from taking any action otherwise permissible in connection with any such account.

 Section 6.9. Laws of Other Jurisdictions. If, notwithstanding the other
provisions of this Agreement, the laws of jurisdictions other than Delaware (each being referred to below as “Such Jurisdiction”) apply to the administration of properties under this Agreement, the following provisions shall
apply. If it is necessary or advisable for a trustee to serve in such jurisdiction and if the Trustee is disqualified from serving in such jurisdiction or for any other reason fails or ceases to serve there or if for any other reason the Trustee
deems it advisable to appoint an ancillary trustee in any jurisdiction, an ancillary trustee which need not meet the requirements set forth in the third sentence of Section 6.8 shall be designated in writing by the Trustee. To the extent
permitted under the laws of such jurisdiction, the Trustee may remove the ancillary trustee in such jurisdiction, without cause and without necessity of court proceeding or Unitholder approval, and may or may not appoint a successor ancillary
trustee in such jurisdiction from time to time. The ancillary trustee serving in such jurisdiction is requested and authorized, to the extent not prohibited under the laws of such jurisdiction, to appoint the Trustee to handle the details of
administration in such jurisdiction. The ancillary trustee in such jurisdiction shall have all rights, powers, discretions, responsibilities and duties as are delegated in writing by the Trustee, subject to such limitations and directions as shall
be specified by the Trustee in the instrument evidencing such appointment. Any ancillary trustee in such jurisdiction shall be responsible for all assets with respect to which such trustee is empowered to act. To the extent the provisions of this
Agreement and Delaware law cannot be made applicable to the administration in such jurisdiction, the rights, powers, duties and liabilities of the ancillary trustee in such jurisdiction shall be the same (or as near the same as permitted under the
laws of such jurisdiction if applicable) as if governed by Delaware law. In all events, the administration in such jurisdiction shall be as free and independent of court control and supervision as permitted under the laws of such jurisdiction.
Whenever the term “Trustee” is applied in this Agreement to the administration in such jurisdiction, it shall refer only to the trustee then serving in such jurisdiction. The fees and expenses of any ancillary trustee shall constitute
expenses that are reimbursable to the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.2. Without limiting the generality of Sections 6.1 and 6.2, the Trustee shall not have any personal liability for taking or failing to take any action
authorized or contemplated by this Section 6.9, or for any action or inaction thereof by any ancillary trustee appointed hereunder, unless such liability arises out of, or is based upon, any fraudulent misrepresentation, gross
negligence, or willful misconduct of the Trustee or for acts or omissions in bad faith as adjudicated by arbitration or a final, nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. 

Section 6.10. Force Majeure. No party to this Agreement (or its Affiliates) shall incur any liability to any other party to
this Agreement or to any Unitholder if, by reason of any current or future law, rule, regulation or moratorium of or imposed by the federal government or any other governmental authority or regulatory agency or authority, or by reason of any act of
God, war or other circumstance beyond its reasonable control, such party is prevented or forbidden from doing or performing any act or thing required by the terms hereof to be done or performed; nor shall any party to this Agreement incur any
liability to any other party to this Agreement or to any Unitholder by reason of any nonperformance or delay caused as aforesaid in the performance of any act or thing required by the terms hereof to be done or performed, or by reason of any
exercise of, or failure to exercise, any discretion provided for herein caused as set forth above. 

  
 40 









 Section 6.11. Failure of Action by Grantor or Depositor. In the event that
Grantor or Depositor shall fail or be unable to take any action as required under any provision of this Agreement, the Trustee is empowered (but shall not be required) to take such action for and in the name of Grantor or Depositor. The Trustee
shall incur no liability to any Unitholder or to Grantor, Depositor or to any other person as a result of any action the Trustee may take or fail to take under this Section 6.11. 

ARTICLE VII. 

COMPENSATION OF THE TRUSTEE 
 Section 7.1. Compensation of Trustee and Delaware Trustee. Each of the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee shall receive compensation for its services as Trustee and Delaware Trustee,
respectively, hereunder as set forth in Schedule 2 attached hereto.

reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Trust, Trustee or Delaware Trustee, including, but not limited to, charges for SEC and other fees and expenses relating to transfer agent services, Reserve Reports, audits, long distance telephone
calls, overtime necessitated by rush orders, travel, legal, accounting, tax and other professional services, including without limitation fees and expenses of news services, joint interest auditors, stock exchange or quotation service fees, fees
payable to the PCAOB and any other regulatory body or authority, fees payable in connection with the distribution of information to Unitholders, costs of, printing, stationery, binders, envelopes, ledger sheets, transfer sheets, checks, postage and

pertaining to the Trust, and the compensation and expenses of its counsel, accountants or other skilled Persons and of all other Persons who are not full-time employees of the Trustee or Delaware Trustee, as applicable. 

Section 7.3. Other Services. In the event of litigation involving the Trust, audits or inspection of the records of the Trust
pertaining to the transactions affecting the Trust or any other unusual or extraordinary services rendered in connection with the administration of the Trust, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive additional reasonable compensation for the
services rendered, including but not limited to, the payment of the Trustee’s standard rates for all time spent by Trust personnel on such matters; provided, however, the Trustee shall not be entitled to reimbursement or
additional compensation for services that unreasonably duplicate services provided by or through Depositor or Grantor. 

Section 7.4. Payment. Subject to Article VI with respect to Article VI Expenses, all compensation, reimbursements and
other charges owing to the Trustee shall constitute indebtedness and Trust Obligations under this Agreement and will be payable as Trust Obligations in accordance with Section 3.7, and the Trustee shall have a first priority lien on the
Trust Estate for the payment of such compensation, reimbursements, and other charges to the extent not paid pursuant to Section 3.7, entitling the Trustee under this Agreement to priority as to payment thereof over payment to any other
Person.

 Section 7.5. Depositor Loans. 

(a) From time to time as the Trustee deems reasonably necessary to assure adequate funding for the administration of the
Trust (in addition to amounts required to be paid by Depositor pursuant to Section 3.7), the Trustee may request Depositor to make loans, and Depositor shall make, or cause an Affiliate of Depositor to make, such loans
(“Depositor Loans”), in amounts estimated by the Trustee to be required to cover Trust Obligations or any other expense of the Trust expected to be incurred within the 90-day period following the date each such loan is
requested. To the extent that the Trust is then holding any cash proceeds generated by the Royalties, or any of them, that have not previously been set aside as a cash reserve for the Quarterly Distribution Amount pursuant to
Section 5.2, the Trustee shall take the amount of such cash proceeds into account in estimating the amounts required to cover Trust Obligations. 
 (b) All Depositor Loans shall be senior unsecured obligations of the Trust, shall not bear interest, and shall be repaid in quarterly installments only from the excess, if any, of (i) the cash
received by the Trustee during the applicable Quarter over (ii) all Trust Obligations (excluding Depositor Loans) paid or payable by the Trust for such Quarter and any additions to reserves during or relating to the Quarter. 

(c) In the event that upon termination of the Trust the Trust does not hold any cash on hand or other assets other than
amounts established as reserves in such amounts as the Trustee in its sole discretion deems appropriate for claims and obligations of the Trust, including contingent, conditional and unmatured claims and obligations in accordance with
Section 3808 of the Delaware Trust Act, then any Depositor Loans that remain outstanding will be deemed forgiven, cancelled and discharged by Depositor, or its Affiliates, as applicable, without the necessity of further act or evidence.

 Section 7.6. Ownership of Units. Each of Depositor, Grantor, the Trustee or Delaware Trustee, or any Affiliate
thereof, in its individual or other capacities, may become the owner or pledgee of Units with the same rights, except as otherwise provided in Section 8.7, as it would have if it were not a Depositor, Grantor, Trustee or Delaware Trustee
hereunder. 
 ARTICLE VIII.

of establishing a quorum and (ii) be deemed voted without any action required of the Exchange Agent in the proportion and manner as those Units (other than such Units so held by the Exchange Agent) that actually are voted with respect to each
such matter. 
 (c) At any such meeting the presence in person or by proxy (and including any Units deemed
present as described in Section 8.3(b)) of Record Date Unitholders holding a majority of the Units outstanding at the record date shall constitute a quorum, and, except as otherwise specifically provided herein, any matter shall be
deemed to have been approved by the Unitholders if it is approved by the vote of a majority in interest of such Record Date Unitholders constituting a quorum, although less than a majority of all of the Units at the time outstanding, except that the
affirmative vote by the Record Date Unitholders of: 
  

	 	(i)	prior to the fifth anniversary of the date hereof, eighty percent (80%) or more of all the Units outstanding (subject to Section 8.7) at the record

 In
connection with any matter to be submitted to a vote of Unitholders, Depositor shall deliver to the Trustee a certification of such facts and other matters or determinations as may be necessary in order to determine the applicability of any vote
requirement or other matter relevant to the proposed vote, together with an opinion of counsel (which may be in-house counsel of Depositor or Grantor), in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Trustee, confirming that the proposed action
has been approved in compliance with the requirements of this Agreement; provided that such opinion (i) may rely on a certificate of Depositor as to any factual matters with respect to the subject matter of such opinion and (ii) is not
required to address, and may assume the correctness of, any determination by the Trustee as to conflicts of interests pursuant to Section 8.7). The Trustee shall be fully protected and shall incur no liability in relying on such
certification . 
 Section 8.4. Conduct of Meetings. The Trustee may make such reasonable regulations consistent
with the provisions hereof as it may deem advisable for any meeting of the Unitholders, including regulations covering the closing of the transfer books of the Trustee for purposes of determining Unitholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any

of the Trustee of the Unitholders entitled to vote at the meeting and such other matters concerning the calling and conduct of the meeting as it shall deem advisable. 
 Section 8.5. Unitholder Proposals. In the event a meeting of Unitholders is called for any purpose or a written consent is executed pursuant to Section 8.6 at the request of any
Unitholder or Unitholders pursuant to the provisions of this Article VIII and the Trust remains subject to the requirements of Section 12 of the Exchange Act, the Unitholder or Unitholders requesting such meeting or
soliciting such written consent shall be required to prepare and file a proxy or information statement with the SEC regarding such meeting or written consent in satisfaction of all applicable SEC rules and regulations and at the expense of such
requesting Unitholder or Unitholders. The Unitholder or Unitholders requesting such meeting or executing such written consent shall bear the expense of distributing to Unitholders the notice of meeting


  
 44 









 
and the proxy or information statement related thereto. The Trustee shall not be required to cooperate in the preparation of any such proxy or information statement and any related materials
except to provide a list of Unitholders of the Trust to the extent required by law. 
 Section 8.6. Action Without
Meeting. Any action required or permitted to be authorized or taken at any meeting of Unitholders may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote if a consent or consents in writing setting forth the authorization or
action so taken is signed by Unitholders holding Units representing not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all Units entitled to vote thereon were present and voted.
Prompt notice of the authorization or taking of any action pursuant to this Section 8.6 shall be given to those Unitholders who have not consented in writing. 
 Section 8.7. Units Beneficially Owned by Depositor or its Affiliates Deemed Not Outstanding. In determining whether Unitholders holding the requisite number of Units have approved any vote,
direction, consent or waiver under this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.7, Section 6.8, Section 8.3(c)(i) or Section 8.3(c)(ii), or with respect to any other matter that the Trustee reasonably
determines presents a material conflict of interest between Depositor or its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Unitholders other than Depositor or its Affiliates, on the other hand (which shall include the approval or authorization of any
amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any rights under any Conveyance), Units which are beneficially owned (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) by Depositor or its Affiliates shall be disregarded and
deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such vote or determination, except that for the purpose of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such vote, direction, consent or waiver only Units which the Trustee
actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. In connection with any proposed vote, direction, consent or waiver under this Agreement, Depositor shall deliver to the Trustee a certification setting forth in detail all facts, circumstances and
other relevant considerations regarding any potential conflicts of interest between Depositor or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Unitholders other than Depositor or its Affiliates, on the other hand, or certifying to the Trustee that
no such potential conflicts of interest exist. Depositor shall deliver such certification to the Trustee as promptly as practicable in connection with any proposed vote, direction, consent or waiver under this Agreement, and in any case no less than
ten (10) business days before any filing of proxy materials or dissemination of any communication from the Trustee to the Unitholders regarding any such proposed vote, direction, consent or waiver under this Agreement. The Trustee shall be
entitled to publish such certification in proxy materials or other communications to the Unitholders or the public, and shall be entitled to rely on such certification, and shall be fully protected and shall incur no liability to Depositor or any of
its Affiliates or to any Unitholder or any other Person for relying on such certification. In the event of any disagreement or dispute regarding any matter relevant to any action or decision under this Section 8.7, the Trustee shall be
entitled to act or refuse to act until such disagreement or dispute is resolved to the satisfaction of the Trustee, and in any case shall be entitled to act in accordance with the advice of counsel, which advice of counsel shall be full protection
in respect of any decision made by the Trustee in accordance with such advice. In addition to the foregoing, upon request of the Trustee, Depositor shall furnish to the Trustee promptly an officer’s certificate listing and identifying all Units
so owned by Depositor or any of its Affiliates, if any, and shall update such list as requested from time to time, including an update as of the record date for any 

  
 45 









 
proposed vote, direction, consent or waiver under this Agreement. The Trustee shall be entitled to accept such officer’s certificate as conclusive evidence of the facts therein set forth and
of the fact that all Units not listed therein are outstanding for the purpose of any such determination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Depositor and its Affiliates shall beneficially own (other than any beneficial ownership attributable to
Depositor pursuant to Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act solely due to Depositor’s right to exercise the High-Value Call Option or Low-Value Call Option prior to Depositor’s exercise of the High-Value Call Option or Low-Value
Call Option, as applicable, under Section 3.20) all of the Units outstanding, this Section 8.7 shall not apply. 
 ARTICLE IX.

	1 	 20th anniversary of the date hereof. 



  
 46 









 
upon the dissolution of the Trust, the Trustee shall sell for cash in one or more sales all the properties other than cash then constituting the Trust Estate. The Trustee shall as promptly as
possible distribute the Sales Proceeds Amounts of any such sales and any other cash in the Trust Estate according to the respective interests and rights of the Unitholders, after paying, satisfying and discharging all of the liabilities of the
Trust, including all Depositor Loans, and setting up reserves in such amounts as the Trustee in its discretion deems appropriate for contingent liabilities. No vote or other approval of the Unitholders shall be held or required prior to selling
property pursuant to this Section 9.3(a). 
 (b) In the event that any property which the Trustee is
required to sell is not sold by the Trustee within two years after the dissolution of the Trust, the Trustee shall cause such property to be sold at public auction to the highest cash bidder within 120 days after the end of such two-year period
after dissolution of the Trust. Notice of such sale by auction shall be mailed at least thirty (30) days prior to such sale to each Unitholder of record as of a date set by the Trustee at such Unitholder’s address as it appears upon the
books of the Trustee. Depositor, Grantor or any Unitholder may purchase all or any portion of the Trust Estate properties at any sale pursuant to this Section 9.3(b). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event may the
Trustee distribute the Royalties to the Unitholders. No vote or other approval of the Unitholders shall be held or required prior to selling property pursuant to this Section 9.3(b). 

(c) In connection with sales pursuant to this Section 9.3, the Trustee may accept any offer to purchase the
properties constituting the Trust Estate that it deems reasonable in its discretion and shall have no liability in connection with any such sales. To the extent deemed appropriate by the Trustee, the Trustee shall, within 30 days after the
dissolution of the Trust, use reasonable efforts to engage the services of one or more investment advisers or other parties deemed by the Trustee to be qualified as experts on such matters to assist with such sales (which may include brokers,
including online brokerage services) and shall be entitled to rely on the advice of such professionals as contemplated by Section 12.2. Any such sale or sales may be conducted by means of an auction or similar process designed to be
available to qualified bidders and may be conducted by means of an electronic bidding process or other process as may then be deemed appropriate by the Trustee or its advisors, without necessity of any notice of the sale or auction to the
Unitholders being required; it being understood that the requirement of such notice shall apply solely to an auction conducted pursuant to Section 9.3(b). In the event of such auction or similar process, the Trustee may authorize
agreements to reimburse the expenses of such qualified bidders. No vote or other approval of the Unitholders shall be held or required prior to selling property pursuant to this Section 9.3(c). 

(d) Upon making final distribution to the Unitholders, the Trustee shall be under no further liability.

be described in the officer’s certificate and that the Trustee shall be entitled to rely thereon and shall incur no liability for doing so. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on such officer’s certificate and opinion, and such
officer’s certificate and opinion shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance therewith.

 ARTICLE XI. 
 ARBITRATION AND RELATED MATTERS 
 Section 11.1. Arbitration;
Trustee’s Consent Required. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT AGREE THAT, SUBJECT TO THE WRITTEN CONSENT OF TRUSTEE, ANY DISPUTE, CONTROVERSY OR CLAIM THAT MAY ARISE BETWEEN OR AMONG GRANTOR OR
DEPOSITOR (ON THE ONE HAND) AND THE TRUST OR THE TRUSTEE (ON THE OTHER HAND) IN CONNECTION WITH OR OTHERWISE RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE CONVEYANCES OR THE APPLICATION, IMPLEMENTATION, VALIDITY OR BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE CONVEYANCES OR
ANY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE CONVEYANCES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, CLAIMS BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR STATUTE), MAY BE FINALLY, CONCLUSIVELY AND EXCLUSIVELY SETTLED BY BINDING ARBITRATION IN WILMINGTON, DELAWARE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
COMMERCIAL ARBITRATION RULES (THE “RULES”) OF THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION OR ANY SUCCESSOR THERETO (“AAA”) THEN IN EFFECT. THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT (AND ON BEHALF OF THE TRUST) HEREBY
EXPRESSLY WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO SEEK REMEDIES IN COURT, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY, WITH RESPECT TO ANY MATTER SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION PURSUANT TO THIS ARTICLE XI; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THIS WAIVER SHALL
NOT APPLY TO THE TRUSTEE UNLESS THE TRUSTEE HAS CONSENTED IN WRITING TO THE ARBITRATION PROCESS. ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY BRING AN ACTION, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, A SUMMARY OR EXPEDITED PROCEEDING, IN ANY COURT HAVING JURISDICTION, TO
COMPEL ARBITRATION OF ANY DISPUTE, CONTROVERSY OR CLAIM TO WHICH THIS ARTICLE XI APPLIES. EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO THE FOLLOWING PROVISIONS (THE “SPECIAL PROVISIONS”), WHICH SHALL APPLY WITH RESPECT TO ANY
ARBITRATION PURSUANT TO THIS ARTICLE XI, THE INITIATION AND CONDUCT OF ARBITRATION SHALL BE AS SET FORTH IN THE RULES, WHICH RULES ARE INCORPORATED IN THIS AGREEMENT BY REFERENCE WITH THE SAME EFFECT AS IF THEY WERE SET FORTH IN THIS
AGREEMENT. 
 (a) In the event of any inconsistency between the Rules and the Special Provisions, the Special
Provisions shall control. References in the Rules to a sole arbitrator shall be deemed to refer to the tribunal of arbitrators provided for under subparagraph (c) below in this Article XI. 

(b) The arbitration shall be administered by AAA. 

(c) The arbitration shall be conducted by a tribunal of three arbitrators. Within ten (10) days after arbitration is
initiated pursuant to the Rules, the initiating party or parties (the “Claimant”) shall send written notice to the other party or parties (the “Respondent”), with a copy to the Delaware office of AAA,
designating the first arbitrator (who shall not be a representative or agent of any party but may or may not be an AAA panel member and, in any case, shall be reasonably believed by the Claimant to


  
 49 









 
possess the requisite experience, education and expertise in respect of the matters to which the claim relates to enable such person to completely perform arbitral-duties). Within ten
(10) days after receipt of such notice, the Respondent shall send written notice to the Claimant, with a copy to the Delaware office of AAA and to the first arbitrator, designating the second arbitrator (who shall not be a representative or
agent of any party, but may or may not be an AAA panel member and, in any case, shall be reasonably believed by the Respondent to possess the requisite experience, education and expertise in respect of the matters to which the claim relates to
enable such person to competently perform arbitral duties). Within ten (10) days after such notice from the Respondent is received by the Claimant, the Respondent and the Claimant shall cause their respective designated arbitrators to select
any mutually agreeable AAA panel member as the third arbitrator. If the respective designated arbitrators of the Respondent and the Claimant cannot so agree within such ten (10) day period, then the third arbitrator will be determined pursuant
to the Rules. For purposes of this Article XI, Grantor and Depositor (on the one hand) and the Trust and the Trustee (on the other hand) shall each be entitled to the selection of one (1) arbitrator. Prior to commencement of the
arbitration proceeding, each arbitrator shall have provided the parties with a resume outlining such arbitrator’s background and qualifications and shall certify that such arbitrator is not a representative or agent of any of the parties. If
any arbitrator shall die, fail to act, resign, become disqualified or otherwise cease to act, then the arbitration proceeding shall be delayed for fifteen (15) days and the party by or on behalf of whom such arbitrator was appointed shall be
entitled to appoint a substitute arbitrator (meeting the qualifications set forth in this Article XI) within such fifteen (15) day period; provided, however, that if the party by or on behalf of whom such arbitrator
was appointed shall fail to appoint a substitute arbitrator within such fifteen (15) day period, the substitute arbitrator shall be a neutral arbitrator appointed by the AAA arbitrator within fifteen (15) days thereafter. 

(d) All arbitration hearings shall be commenced within one hundred twenty (120) days after arbitration is initiated
pursuant to the Rules, unless, upon a showing of good cause by a party to the arbitration, the tribunal of arbitrators permits the extension of the commencement of such hearing; provided, however, that any such extension shall not be
longer than sixty (60) days. 
 (e) All claims presented for arbitration shall be particularly identified
and the parties to the arbitration shall each prepare a statement of their position with recommended courses of action. These statements of position and recommended courses of action shall be submitted to the tribunal of arbitrators chosen as
provided hereinabove for binding decision. The tribunal of arbitrators shall not be empowered to make decisions beyond the scope of the position papers. 
 (f) The arbitration proceeding will be governed by the substantive laws of the State of Delaware and will be conducted in accordance with such procedures as shall be fixed for such purpose by the tribunal
of arbitrators, except that (i) discovery in connection with any arbitration proceeding shall be conducted in accordance with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and applicable case law, (ii) the tribunal of arbitrators shall have the
power to compel discovery and (iii) unless the parties otherwise agree and except as may be provided in this Article XI, the arbitration shall be governed by the 

  
 50 









 
United States Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. Sections 1-16, to the exclusion of any provision of state law or other applicable law or procedure inconsistent therewith or which would produce a
different result. The parties shall preserve their right to assert and to avail themselves of the attorney-client and attorney-work-product privileges, and any other privileges to which they may be entitled pursuant to applicable law. No party to
the arbitration or any arbitrator may compel or require mediation and/or settlement conferences without the prior written consent of all such parties and the tribunal of arbitrators. 

(g) The tribunal of arbitrators shall make an arbitration award as soon as possible after the later of the close of
evidence or the submission of final briefs, and in all cases the award shall be made not later than thirty (30) days following submission of the matter. The finding and decision of a majority of the arbitrators shall be final and shall be
binding upon the parties. Judgment upon the arbitration award or decision may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof or application may be made to any such court for a judicial acceptance of the award and an order of enforcement, as the
case may be. The tribunal of arbitrators shall have the authority to assess liability for pre-award and post-award interest on the claims, attorneys’ fees, expert witness fees and all other expenses of arbitration as such arbitrators shall deem
appropriate based on the outcome of the claims arbitrated. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties to the arbitration in writing, the arbitration award shall include findings of fact and conclusions of law. 

(h) Nothing in this Article XI shall be deemed to (i) limit the applicability of any otherwise applicable
statute of limitations or repose or any waivers contained in this Agreement, (ii) constitute a waiver by any party hereto of the protections afforded by 12 U.S.C. Section 91 or any successor statute thereto or any substantially equivalent
state law, (iii) restrict the right of the Trustee to make application to any state or federal district court having jurisdiction in New Castle County, Delaware, to appoint a successor Trustee or to request instructions with regard to any
provision in this Agreement when the Trustee is unsure of its obligations thereunder, or (iv) apply to the Delaware Trustee. 
 Section 11.2. Litigation, Forum Selection; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial. 
 (a) IN THE EVENT OF ANY DISPUTE, CONTROVERSY OR CLAIM AS TO WHICH THE TRUSTEE DOES NOT CONSENT IN WRITING TO ARBITRATION AS PERMITTED BY SECTION 11.1, THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT AGREE THAT ANY
SUCH DISPUTE, CONTROVERSY OR CLAIM THAT MAY ARISE BETWEEN OR AMONG GRANTOR OR DEPOSITOR (ON THE ONE HAND) AND THE TRUST OR THE TRUSTEE (ON THE OTHER HAND) IN CONNECTION WITH OR OTHERWISE RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE CONVEYANCES OR THE
APPLICATION, IMPLEMENTATION, VALIDITY OR BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE CONVEYANCES OR ANY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE CONVEYANCES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, CLAIMS BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR STATUTE) SHALL BE BROUGHT AND MAINTAINED IN
THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE OR IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF DELAWARE. THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT SUBMIT TO 

  
 51 









 
THE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE OR THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF DELAWARE FOR THE PURPOSE OF ANY SUCH LITIGATION AS SET FORTH ABOVE. THE PARTIES TO
THIS AGREEMENT WAIVE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OBJECTION WHICH THEY MAY HAVE OR HEREAFTER MAY HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUCH LITIGATION BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT REFERRED TO ABOVE AND ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH LITIGATION
HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. 
 (b) THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT (AND ON BEHALF OF THE TRUST)
EXPRESSLY WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. 
 (c) Nothing in this Section 12.2 shall modify the
provisions of Section 12.9 of this Agreement. 
 ARTICLE XII. 

MISCELLANEOUS 

Section 12.1. Inspection of Books. 
 (a) Depositor, Grantor and each Unitholder and such Depositor, Grantor or Unitholder’s duly authorized agents, attorneys and auditors shall have the right, at such Depositor, Grantor or
Unitholder’s own expense and during reasonable business hours, upon reasonable prior notice, to examine and inspect the records of the Trust and the Trustee relating to the Trust, including lists of Unitholders. 

(b) The Trustee and its duly authorized Agents shall have the right, at the expense of the Trust and during reasonable
business hours, upon reasonable prior written notice, to examine and inspect the records of Grantor relating to the Royalties. 

Section 12.2. Trustee’s Employment of Experts. The Trustee may, but shall not be required to, consult with counsel, who
may be its own counsel, accountants, geologists, engineers and other parties deemed by the Trustee to be qualified as experts on the matters submitted to them, and the opinion or advice of any such parties on any matter submitted to them by the
Trustee shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the opinion of any such party. The Trustee is authorized to make payments of all
reasonable and necessary fees billed by third parties for services or expenses thus incurred out of the Trust Estate. 

Section 12.3. Merger or Consolidation of Trustee or Delaware Trustee. Neither a change of name of the Trustee or Delaware
Trustee nor any merger or consolidation of it or of its corporate powers with another bank or with a trust company shall affect its right or capacity to act hereunder. Upon any merger, consolidation, sale of assets or other transaction involving the
Trustee or Delaware Trustee in which the Trustee or Delaware Trustee is not the surviving entity, the surviving entity in such transaction shall automatically become Trustee or Delaware Trustee of the Trust and succeed to all rights, titles, duties,
powers and authority of the predecessor Trustee or Delaware Trustee hereunder, without the requirement of Unitholder approval or any 

  
 52 









 
other action, provided such surviving entity has succeeded to the rights and obligations of the predecessor Trustee or Delaware Trustee in accordance with applicable law and is a bank or trust
company having capital, surplus and undivided profits (as of the end of its last fiscal year prior to the consummation of such transaction) of at least $100,000,000. 
 Section 12.4. Filing of this Agreement. Neither this Agreement nor any executed copy hereof need be filed in any county in which any of the Trust Estate is located or elsewhere, but the same
may be filed for record in any county by the Trustee. In order to avoid the necessity of filing this Agreement for record, the Trustee agrees that to the extent applicable for the purpose of vesting the record title to the Royalties in any successor
Trustee, the succeeded Trustee will, upon appointment of any successor Trustee, execute and deliver to such successor Trustee appropriate assignments or conveyances. 
 Section 12.5. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstances shall be finally determined by a court of proper jurisdiction to be
illegal, invalid or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this Agreement or the application of such provision to Persons or circumstances, other than those as to which it is held illegal, invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected
thereby, and every provision of this Agreement shall be valid and enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. 

Section 12.6. Notices. Any and all notices or demands permitted or required to be given under this Agreement shall be in
writing and shall be validly given or made if (a) personally delivered, (b) delivered and confirmed by Federal Express or other nationally recognized overnight courier delivery service, which shall be effective as of confirmation of
receipt by the courier at the address for notice hereinafter stated, (c) solely in the case of notice to any Unitholder, by press release in a nationally recognized and distributed media, or (d) deposited in the United States mail, first

addition to the foregoing, the Trustee agrees to accept and act upon notice, instructions or directions pursuant to this Agreement sent by unsecured e-mail, facsimile transmission or other similar unsecured electronic methods; provided however that
no such electronic communication from a Unitholder to the Trustee shall constitute a valid notice or demand. If a party to this Agreement elects to give the Trustee e-mail or facsimile instructions (or instructions by a similar electronic
method) and the Trustee in its discretion elects to act upon such instructions, the Trustee’s understanding of such instructions shall be deemed controlling. The Trustee shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising

respective successors and assigns. 
 Section 12.9. Governing Law. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the
contrary, this Agreement and the Trust, and all claims or causes of action (whether in contract or tort) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement (including, without limitation, the validity, construction and administration
of this Agreement and the Trust, the enforceability of the provisions of this Agreement, all rights and remedies hereunder and the services of the Trustee hereunder), or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (including, without
limitation, any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of or related to any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement), shall be governed by the internal laws
of the State of Delaware; provided, however, that there shall not be applicable to the Trust, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, Depositor, Grantor, the Unitholders or this Agreement any provision of the laws (statutory or common) of the State of
Delaware pertaining to trusts that relate to or regulate, in a manner inconsistent with the terms hereof (a) the filing with any court or governmental body or agency of trustee accounts or schedules of trustee fees and charges,
(b) affirmative requirements to post bonds for trustees, officers, agents or employees of a trust, (c) the necessity for obtaining court or other governmental approval concerning the acquisition, holding or disposition of real or personal
property, (d) fees or other sums payable to trustees, officers, agents or employees of a trust, (e) the allocation of receipts and expenditures to income or principal, (f) restrictions or limitations on the permissible nature, amount

shall not apply to the Trust. 
 Section 12.10. Confidentiality. 

(a) Any confidential information provided by Depositor or Grantor to the Trustee or Delaware Trustee pursuant to this
Agreement shall not be disclosed by Trustee or Delaware Trustee to any third party, except with Depositor’s or Grantor’s prior written consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Trustee or Delaware Trustee may disclose such information to its
representatives or the their officers, directors, legal counsel, accountants and advisors (collectively, “Representatives”) who, in each case, in the Trustee’s or Delaware Trustee’s reasonable judgment, need to know such
information for the purpose of (i) confirming compliance with the terms of this Agreement or (ii) advising the Trustee or Delaware Trustee with respect to any action required by or 

  
 55 









 
requested of the Trustee or Delaware Trustee pursuant to this Agreement or any Conveyance provided that the Trustee or Delaware Trustee shall (a) inform each person to whom such information
is provided of the confidential nature of such information, (b) take reasonable precautions necessary to prevent the disclosure of such information by such persons to any third party, and (c) be responsible for any breach of this
Section 12.10 by any Representatives. 
 (b) If the Trustee or Delaware Trustee is requested or
required (by law, judicial or governmental order or regulatory process or by any self-regulatory organization, interrogatory, request for information or documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process) to disclose any confidential
information provided by Depositor or Grantor to the Trustee or Delaware Trustee, it is agreed that the Trustee or Delaware Trustee will, to the extent legally permitted, provide Depositor or Grantor with prompt notice of such request or requirement
prior to making such disclosure so that Depositor or Grantor may seek an appropriate protective order and/or waive Trustee’s or Delaware Trustee’s compliance with this Section 12.10. Trustee or Delaware Trustee may disclose
only that portion of the confidential information that Trustee or Delaware Trustee is advised by its counsel is legally required to be disclosed; provided, that, to the extent legally permitted, Trustee or Delaware Trustee provides Depositor or
Grantor prior written notice of the information to be disclosed as far in advance of its disclosure as is practicable and, upon Depositor’s or Grantor’s request, uses reasonable efforts to obtain assurances that confidential treatment will
be afforded to such information. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this
Section 12.10 or any other provision hereof, nothing herein shall prevent or restrict the Trust or Trustee from making any public disclosure of any information the Trustee deems to be required or advisable in order to ensure compliance
by the Trust with applicable securities laws, or other legal or regulatory requirements or securities exchange listing or quotation system or similar requirements; provided, however, that this sentence shall apply and remain in effect only until the
later to occur of (i) the conclusion of the winding up and termination of the Trust (which may be after the Termination Date), and (ii) the termination of any public reporting obligations of the Trust under applicable securities laws.

 Section 12.11. Stand-by Reserve Account or Letter of Credit. Depositor hereby agrees to provide and maintain a
$1.0 million stand-by reserve account with The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. or a letter of credit, in a form and from a bank reasonably acceptable to the Trustee, for the purpose of enabling the Trustee to draw on the reserve account
or letter of credit to pay Trust Obligations in the event that the Trust does not have funds adequate to pay the Trust Obligations at any time or from time to time. At any time (and from time to time) after the one-year anniversary of the date of
this Agreement, with the consent of the Trustee, Depositor may reduce the reserve account or substitute a letter of credit in a different face amount for the original letter of credit or any substitute letter of credit. 

Section 12.12. Conveyances. Grantor shall record the Recordable Conveyances (and any further conveyances necessary to
properly convey to the Trust interests required or intended to be conveyed to the Trust after the date hereof) in the appropriate filing offices in accordance with 

  
 56 









 
the terms of the Conveyances, and Grantor and Depositor shall be solely responsible for the correctness of the information contained in the Recordable Conveyances and other conveyances and the
proper filing thereof. The Trustee shall have no responsibility for the correctness of the information contained in the Recordable Conveyances or other conveyances and no obligation to record any of the Recordable Conveyances or other conveyances or
any other document and no responsibility to confirm the proper filing of any of the Recordable Conveyances or other conveyances or any other document. The Trustee shall have no obligation to prepare or file or continue any financing statement or
similar filing or to create or perfect any lien or security interest.
