 Exhibit 10.2 
 October 6, 2011 
 To UBS Securities: 

Ladies and Gentlemen: 
 This restructuring
support and lockup letter agreement (together with the exhibits and schedule hereto, this “Agreement”) sets forth certain terms and conditions pursuant to which Dune Energy, Inc. (the “Company”) will restructure its
indebtedness by consummating an out-of-court restructuring or a prearranged or prepackaged plan of reorganization in a voluntary case (the “Chapter 11 Case”) to be filed under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code,
11 U.S.C. §§ 101 et seq. (the “Bankruptcy Code”) to be effectuated with the support (as set forth herein) of UBS Securities LLC (“UBS”) holding approximately 64% of the 10% Senior
Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company (the “Preferred Stock”) issued under the Certificate of Designation of 10% Senior Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock of Dune Energy, Inc., Article Fourth of the Amended and
Restated Certificate of Incorporation of Dune Energy, Inc. and the resolution of the board of directors of the Company adopted on May 1, 2007 (the Company and UBS each, a “Party,” and, collectively, the

the Restructuring Term Sheet (as defined below). 
 The parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 

 

	 	1.	Proposed Restructuring 


The principal terms of the proposed restructuring are set forth on the term sheet annexed hereto as Exhibit A (which term

Term Sheet”)). The restructuring of the Company’s indebtedness and equity, including the Preferred Stock, incorporating the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Restructuring Term Sheet and containing no other provisions
adverse to UBS except as the Company and UBS may expressly consent to in writing is referred to herein as the “Restructuring”. 
 The Restructuring shall be implemented on a consensual basis, either out-of-court or through the Chapter 11 Case, and will provide for, among other things, treatment of the Preferred Stock as specified in

hereto agrees that it shall bring any action or proceeding in respect of any claim arising out of or related to this Agreement, to the extent possible, in either the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York or any New York

 EXHIBIT A 
 RESTRUCTURING TERM SHEET 
 (Attached) 






 DUNE ENERGY, INC. 

Summary of Terms 
 October 6, 2011 
 This preliminary term sheet (this “Term Sheet”)
sets forth a brief summary of the principal terms of a potential restructuring (the “Restructuring”) of the capital structure of Dune Energy, Inc. (the “Company”). This Term Sheet is offered in the nature of a
settlement proposal in furtherance of settlement discussions, and is intended to be entitled to the protections of Federal Rule of Evidence 408 and any other applicable statutes or doctrines protecting the use or disclosure of confidential
information and information exchanged in the context of settlement discussions. This Term Sheet is for discussion only, is a non-binding expression of intent, is intended as an outline only of certain material terms of the proposed transactions
described herein, and does not represent a commitment to lend, invest or provide financing or to negotiate to do any of these things. Furthermore, this Term Sheet does not constitute a waiver by any party, or an agreement or commitment by any party
to forbear from taking any remedies to which such party may be entitled, and in that regard all rights of the holders (the “Noteholders”) of the Company’s 10-1/2% Senior Secured Notes due 2012 (the “Notes”) are
specifically reserved. This Term Sheet and the terms, conditions and assumptions contained herein are subject to the negotiation and execution of definitive documentation for the transactions described herein, including the Restructuring, which
documentation shall be in all respects materially consistent with this Term Sheet. This Term Sheet is not an offer with respect to any securities or a solicitation of acceptances of a chapter 11 plan. Any such offer or solicitation will only be made
in compliance with all applicable laws. 
  

			
	Overview of Restructuring:	  	 The purpose of the Restructuring, through an out-of-court restructuring or a pre-negotiated or pre-packaged chapter
11 plan consistent with the material terms and conditions described in this Term Sheet, is, among other things, to retire the outstanding Notes and to eliminate interest expense related to the Notes and thereby significantly improve the
Company’s free cash flow, reduce its debt service expense and strengthen its balance sheet.
  
 It is understood that as of the date of this Term Sheet, an ad hoc committee of Noteholders (the “Ad Hoc Committee”) has been formed, and the members of the Ad Hoc Committee collectively
own more than 75% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes.
  
 Subject to
the due diligence investigation by the Ad Hoc Committee with respect to claims against the Company, the Restructuring shall generally provide for the reinstatement or payment, as appropriate, of allowed claims against the Company, including the
claims of the senior secured lender under its Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of December 7, 2010 (as amended to date, and as it may hereafter be amended from time to time) by and among the Company and each of its subsidiaries
identified therein as Borrowers, certain guarantor parties thereto, the lender thereunder and Wells Fargo Capital Finance, Inc., as administrative agent (the “Existing Credit Agreement”), other secured lenders and holders of general
unsecured claims, except as otherwise noted.









			
		  	 In order to reflect the Company’s preferred form of Restructuring as of the date of this Term Sheet, the Company and the
Noteholders will negotiate in good faith to effect the Restructuring as an out-of-court restructuring of the Company’s capital structure as described herein and not involving any judicial proceeding or approval (the “Out-of-Court
Restructuring”). In connection with the Out-of-Court Restructuring, the Company must obtain the approval of this Term Sheet by (a) the Noteholders holding at least 98% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes and (b) the holders of at
least two-thirds of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s 10% Senior Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”). Implementation of the Out-of-Court Restructuring will be conditioned on obtaining
such approvals.
  
 In the event that the approvals set forth above for the
Out-of-Court Restructuring are not obtained within a reasonable time, the Restructuring shall be implemented pursuant to a prepackaged or pre-negotiated plan of reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (the “Prepackaged
Reorganization”), but only if Noteholders that collectively hold at least two-thirds in principal amount of the outstanding Notes, approve of the Restructuring; provided, however, that the Company’s obligation to pursue
implementation of the Restructuring pursuant to the Prepackaged Reorganization may, at the discretion of the Board of Directors, be conditioned on the prior approval of such implementation by the holders of at least two thirds of the issued and
outstanding shares of Preferred Stock.
  
 Regardless of whether effected as
an Out-of-Court Restructuring or a Prepackaged Reorganization, the Restructuring shall be subject to the prior approval by the board of directors of the Company (the “Board of Directors”).

 
 The Company and the members of the Ad Hoc Committee shall negotiate and enter into a
restructuring support agreement (the “Noteholder Support Agreement”) to facilitate the consummation of the Restructuring, whether in the form of the Out-of-Court Restructuring or the Prepackaged Reorganization. Similarly, the
Company and the holder of at least 64% of the issued and outstanding shares of Preferred Stock (the “Principal Preferred Stockholder”) shall negotiate and enter into a restructuring support agreement (the “Preferred
Stockholder Support Agreement” and together with the Noteholder Support Agreement, the “Support Agreements”) to facilitate the consummation of the Restructuring, whether in the form of the Out-of-Court Restructuring or the
Prepackaged Reorganization. Pursuant to the Support Agreements, the parties thereto will agree to support a restructuring implementing the transactions and terms described herein. The Support Agreements shall be entered into (and accordingly, the
members of the Ad Hoc Committee and the Principal Preferred Stockholder shall deliver their acceptances of the Restructuring) prior to any solicitation period relating to approvals by holders of securities or other indebtedness of, or claims
against, the Company. In soliciting the approvals described above from Noteholders and holders of the Preferred Stock, such holders shall not be given the option to approve the Prepackaged Reorganization without also approving the Out-of-Court
Restructuring.



  
 - 15 -









			
		
	Reporting Company Status:	  	Following the Restructuring, whether effected through a Prepackaged Reorganization or an Out-of-Court Restructuring, the Company will continue to be a public reporting company,
filing periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company will use its reasonable commercial efforts to cause its common stock to be listed on a U.S. national securities exchange within a reasonable period after consummation
of the Restructuring.
		
	Tax/Business Considerations:	  	Consistent with all the terms set forth in this Term Sheet, the parties hereto shall use good-faith efforts to structure the transactions contemplated herein and in the Support
Agreements in a tax-efficient and cost-effective manner.
		
	Treatment of Noteholders:	  	Upon effectiveness of the Restructuring, the claims of the Noteholders with respect to $250 million in aggregate principal amount of the Notes shall be exchanged for 97.25% (the
“Noteholder Percentage”) of the new equity interests in the reorganized Company (the “New Equity”). As described below, upon consummation of the Restructuring, $50 million in aggregate principal amount of the Notes
shall be (i) paid in full at par with proceeds from borrowings under the New Credit Facility (as defined below) or (ii) exchanged for new notes of like amount in form and substance satisfactory to the Company and the Ad Hoc Committee. The New Equity
shall consist solely of newly issued common stock of the Company. The Noteholder Percentage may increase to 100% as described below, and shall be subject to dilution as described below opposite “Corporate Governance &
Management.”
		
	Treatment of holders of Existing Common Equity and Preferred Stock:	  	 Upon consummation of the Restructuring (regardless of whether effected as an Out-of-Court Restructuring or a Prepackaged
Reorganization), the holders of existing Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stockholders”) shall receive an aggregate cash amount of $4.0 million and 1.5% of the New Equity, in exchange for their shares of Preferred Stock;
provided that the Principal Preferred Stockholder enters into the Preferred Stockholder Support Agreement and votes to approve the terms set forth in this Term Sheet.

 
 Upon consummation of the Out-of-Court Restructuring, Holders of common stock of the
Company existing immediately prior to the Restructuring shall hold 1.25% of the New Equity; provided that at least two-thirds of the issued and outstanding shares of Preferred Stock are voted to approve the terms set forth in this Term
Sheet.
  
 If at least two-thirds of the issued and outstanding shares of
Preferred Stock are not voted to approve the conversion of all the issued and outstanding Preferred Stock into $4.0 million and 1.5% of the New Equity, and if the other conditions set forth herein to the obligation of the Company to effect a
Prepackaged Reorganization are satisfied, then the Restructuring will be effected as a Prepackaged Reorganization.
  
 Furthermore, if the Principal Preferred Stockholder does not vote to approve the terms set forth herein in the bankruptcy proceeding, the



  
 - 16 -









			
		  	 Preferred Stockholders and the holders of Dune’s common stock existing immediately prior to the Restructuring will receive no
return, and the Prepackaged Reorganization will result in the Noteholder Percentage increasing to 100% (subject to dilution as described herein).
  

Upon consummation of the Prepackaged Reorganization, Holders of common stock of the Company existing immediately prior to the Restructuring shall hold
1.25% of the New Equity; provided that at least two-thirds of the shares of Preferred Stock that are voted in the bankruptcy proceeding are voted to approve the terms set forth in this Term Sheet. If at least two-thirds of the shares of
Preferred Stock that are voted in the bankruptcy proceeding are not voted to approve the terms set forth in this Term Sheet, and the Restructuring is effected as Prepackaged Reorganization, then the Noteholder Percentage will be increased by
1.25 percentage points, and the holders of Dune’s common stock existing immediately prior to the Restructuring will receive no return.
  

Upon effectiveness of a Prepackaged Reorganization, the equity interests in the Company existing immediately prior to the Restructuring (including both
the Company’s common stock and its Preferred Stock) shall automatically be waived, released, and cancelled (and all outstanding options and warrants shall be automatically waived, released, and cancelled; provided that, to the extent
necessary, any requisite amendment to existing option plans shall be implemented to effectuate the terms set forth herein).

		
	Treatment of holders of trade and other unsecured claims:	  	The Company’s obligations in respect of trade and other unsecured claims shall be paid in full in the ordinary course, except as otherwise mutually agreed by the Company and
the Ad Hoc Committee.
		
	New Credit Facility:	  	 The Company shall obtain a new credit facility or facilities (the “New Credit Facility”) to repay $50.0 in principal
amount of the Notes and all the outstanding indebtedness under the Existing Credit Agreement and to provide liquidity for working capital and other general corporate purposes. The New Credit Facility shall include a $60.0 million revolving credit
loan secured by a first lien on substantially all assets of the Company, and a separate $40.0 million term loan (or notes) that shall either be unsecured or secured by a lien that is subordinated to the lien securing the revolving credit loan. All
the proceeds of the term loan (or notes) would be used, together with revolving credit borrowings or cash on hand, to retire $50.0 million of the Notes at par. Immediately upon consummation of the Restructuring, the revolving credit loan would be
used to refinance indebtedness under the Existing Credit Agreement, and any remaining borrowing capacity under such revolving credit loan would be available to be drawn at the discretion of the Company.

 
 In the event that a New Credit Facility acceptable to the Company and the Ad Hoc
Committee cannot be obtained from third parties, the Company and the Ad Hoc Committee will negotiate in good faith to modify the Restructuring accordingly, including by potentially having members of the Ad Hoc Committee provide alternative financing
(through an exchange of Notes for new notes on agreed upon terms) and reducing the amount of such financing to $50 million.

 It is anticipated that in the event of a Prepackaged
Reorganization, the Company would seek to have any debtor-in-possession financing facility survive the Prepackaged Reorganization and be rolled into an exit facility upon emergence from bankruptcy proceedings.

		
	Corporate Governance & Management:	  	 On and immediately after the date on which the Restructuring is consummated (the “Effective Date”), the Board of
Directors will consist of seven (7) members, initially comprised of the CEO of the Company and six (6) members who are acceptable to the Ad Hoc Committee.
  

A mutually agreed upon number of such six (6) members must satisfy NYSE and ISS standards for independence, and at least one (1) of such six (6) members
must qualify as a “financial expert” and be willing to serve as chair of the audit committee of the Board of Directors. Selection of all members of the Board of Directors shall be undertaken in consultation with the Company.

 
 Immediately after the Restructuring, the Company’s equity compensation plan or
plans (such plan or plans being referred to herein as the “Management Equity Plan”) shall provide for equity based compensation to management (including directors and officers) and employees, comprising an aggregate of up to 7% of
the New Equity, with equity interests comprising 3 of such 7% being issued under the Management Equity Plan immediately upon consummation of the Restructuring, and equity interests comprising 2 of such 7% being issued on or about each of the first
and second anniversaries of the Effective Date, respectively.
  
 Individual
allocations of equity incentive awards shall be proposed by the CEO, and shall be subject to approval by the compensation committee of the Board of Directors ( the “Compensation Committee”). Grants under the Management Equity Plan
will be tied to performance criteria established by the Compensation Committee after review of the CEO’s proposed targets, within 90 days after the Effective Date. The initial grant of 3% on the Effective Date shall consist solely of restricted
shares, with vesting of all of such restricted shares awarded to the CEO subject to performance-based vesting and vesting of awards to each other participant subject to 50% time-based and 50% performance-based vesting. All compensation of the CEO,
including stock based compensation, shall be recommended by the Compensation Committee and subject to approval by the Board of Directors.
  

Equity interests granted under the Management Equity Plan shall dilute all holdings of New Equity on a pro rata basis.

 
 Subject to the due diligence investigation of the Ad Hoc Committee (during the Due
Diligence Period (as defined below)), and the continuing oversight of the Board of Directors after the Effective Date, except as otherwise set forth herein, all existing corporate governance arrangements, employment agreements and employee benefit,
compensation and severance arrangements shall survive the

		  	Restructuring and continue in effect during and after the Restructuring process; provided that the definition of “change of control” in all such agreements is modified to
reflect the new ownership structure and that this Restructuring does not qualify as a “change of control” as defined in such agreements. Subject to the due diligence investigation of the Ad Hoc Committee (during the Due Diligence Period
(as defined below)), all employees shall receive their target cash bonus awards for calendar year 2011 as approved by the Board of Directors prior to the Restructuring.
		
	Due Diligence; Conditions & Next Steps:	  	 The Ad Hoc Committee will be entitled to conduct (on a good faith basis) a business and legal due diligence investigation, during the
period between the date hereof and October 31, 2011 (the “Due Diligence Period”).
  
 The Board of Directors will obtain an opinion from an independent financial advisor as to the fairness of the Restructuring and the terms hereof and thereof. The consummation of the Restructuring by the
Company, as well as any approval hereof or of the Restructuring by the Board of Directors, shall be subject to obtaining such fairness opinion in form and substance and on terms acceptable to the Board of Directors.

 
 The effectiveness of any Restructuring shall be conditioned upon the absence of the
identification and written notice by the Ad Hoc Committee to the Company during the Due Diligence Period, of any material business or legal issues, and shall also be subject to customary closing conditions, including, without limitation, the
negotiation and execution of definitive documentation, satisfactory to the Ad Hoc Committee and the Company, for the transactions described herein.
  

The Board of Directors and its outside counsel and the Ad Hoc Committee and its outside counsel shall negotiate in good faith and use all deliberate speed
to negotiate the terms and conditions of the Restructuring.

		
	Registration Rights Agreement:	  	In connection with any Out-of-Court Restructuring, the Company shall enter into a registration rights agreement with the Noteholders that receive New Equity in exchange for Notes.
The registration rights agreement shall contain customary provisions including demand, shelf and piggyback registration rights.
		
	Fees and Expenses:	  	The reasonable professional fees and expenses of not more than one legal counsel to the Ad Hoc Committee (Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP) shall be paid by the
Company, pursuant to such firm’s engagement letter agreement entered into with the Company.

	Releases:	  	Subject to due diligence, the Company will release at closing any and all claims and causes of action, including (if applicable) any claims and causes of action under Chapter 5 of
the Bankruptcy Code, which it has or may have or could potentially assert against (a) any present director, officer or employee of the Company and (b) each member of the Ad Hoc Committee and their advisors.
		
	Reservation of Rights:	  	Nothing herein is intended to, or does, in any manner waive, limit, impair or restrict the ability of each of the Company and each member of the Ad Hoc Committee to protect and
fully preserve all of its rights, remedies, and interests, including its claims against the Company or any other party in interest. Nothing herein shall be deemed an admission of any kind. If the Restructuring is not consummated, the Company and the
members of the Ad Hoc Committee fully reserve any and all of their respective rights.
		
	Disclaimer of Duties:	  	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, nothing in this Term Sheet shall require the Company or any member of the Ad Hoc Committee to take any action or to refrain from
taking any action, to the extent required to comply with its or their obligations under applicable law, including the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.
