			NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties, intending to be legally bound, mutually agree as follows:
		

		
			1.         Term:  Executive agrees to continue to provide services for Sanchez Energy in the capacity of ____________________, and Sanchez Energy agrees to continue to engage Executive to serve as Sanchez Energy’s ____________________, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement beginning on the Effective Date (as defined above) and continuing until Executive’s services are terminated by either Executive or Sanchez Energy, as applicable, in accordance with Section 4  below (the “Term”).
		

		
			2.         Place of Services:  Executive will perform his duties under this Agreement at SOG’s and Sanchez Energy’s offices in Houston, Texas.
		

		
			3.         Compensation:  During the Term of this Agreement, Sanchez Energy agrees as follows:
		

		
			(a)        Base Salary:  Executive’s annual base salary is $___________, subject to applicable withholdings and deductions (the “Base Salary”).  Executive’s Base Salary may not be decreased during the Term of this Agreement by Sanchez Energy, but may be increased in the absolute discretion of SOG’s Board of Directors (the “SOG Board”), or any authorized committee thereof, and Sanchez Energy’s Board of Directors (the “Sanchez Board”), or any
		

		
			
		

		
			


		 





		

		
			 
		

		
			authorized committee thereof, in accordance with the rules and procedures governing such Boards and the terms of the Services Agreement.  To the extent Executive’s Base Salary is increased during the Term, such increased rate shall thereafter be considered Executive’s “Base Salary” for purposes of this Agreement.  During the Term, Sanchez Energy will continue to reimburse SOG for the full gross amount of Executive’s Base Salary, in accordance with the terms of the Services Agreement.
		

		
			(b)        Annual Bonus:  In addition to Executive’s Base Salary, during the Term Executive shall continue to receive an annual bonus for services rendered by Executive to Sanchez Energy equal to a specified percentage of Executive’s Base Salary,  subject to applicable withholdings and deductions, which shall be payable to Executive at such time as annual bonuses are paid to other executives of SOG, but in no event later than March 15 of the year following the year to which the annual bonus relates (the “Annual Bonus”).   For the avoidance of doubt, Executive’s Annual Bonus for fiscal 2019 shall include such amounts as are approved as part of the Annual Bonus by the Special Committee of the Sanchez Board.  Executive’s Annual Bonus shall be determined in a manner and utilizing a qualitative assessment of financial and individual performance achievements consistent with the determination of Executive’s Annual Bonus in prior years, including without limitation those achievements and other factors specified in Sanchez Energy’s definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 16, 2018;  provided,  that, the Annual Bonus may not be decreased by Sanchez Energy during the term of this Agreement, but may be increased in the absolute discretion of SOG Board, or any authorized committee thereof, and the Sanchez Board, or any authorized committee thereof, in accordance with the rules and procedures governing such Boards and the terms of the Services Agreement.  To the extent Executive’s Annual Bonus is increased during the Term, such increased rate shall thereafter be considered Executive’s “Annual Bonus” for purposes of this Agreement.  During the Term, Sanchez Energy will continue to reimburse SOG for the full gross amount of Executive’s Annual Bonus, in accordance with the terms of the Services Agreement.
		

		
			(c)        Long-Term Incentive Compensation Awards:  Long-term incentive compensation awards may be made directly from Sanchez Energy to Executive from time to time during the Term, as determined by the Sanchez Board in its sole discretion,  whose decision will be based upon performance and award guidelines for executive officers of Sanchez Energy established periodically by the Sanchez Board,  in its sole discretion.
		

		
			(d)        Sanchez Energy Guarantee.  Sanchez Energy hereby absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to Executive, his successors and assigns the payment in full of Executive’s Base Salary and Annual Bonus and all other amounts owed by SOG to Executive, his successors and assigns (collectively, “Obligations”) when due and payable. Such guarantee shall be as primary obligor and not merely as surety, shall be a guarantee of payment and performance and not of collection and shall be a continuing guarantee. Sanchez Energy hereby waives acceptance, diligence, promptness, presentment, demand of payment or performance, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of SOG, any right to require a proceeding (or other exhaustion of remedies) first against SOG or to join SOG in any enforcement action or to first resort to any other means of obtaining payment or performance, protest, notice, all demands whatsoever and any other circumstances that might

			constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor or surety or a defense of a guarantor or surety.  Sanchez Energy agrees that to the extent SOG fails to make any payment to Executive for any Obligations, Sanchez Energy shall make such payment to Executive directly within five (5) business days of receiving written notice from Executive.  To the extent Executive receives payment directly from Sanchez Energy, Sanchez Energy shall not be required to reimburse SOG for the same amount that would have otherwise been paid to SOG.

			provided,  that,  any of the events described in Section 4(b)(i)(C) or 4(b)(i)(D) above shall constitute Cause only if Executive fails to cure such event to the reasonable satisfaction of the Sanchez Board within thirty (30) calendar days of receiving written notice from the Sanchez Board of the event which allegedly constitutes Cause; and provided further that a termination shall not be deemed to be for Cause under Section 4(b)(i)(C) or 4(b)(i)(D) unless and until there shall have been delivered to Executive a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of a majority of the members of the Sanchez Board (other than Executive, if he is a member of the Sanchez Board), at a meeting of the Sanchez Board called and held for such purpose (after reasonable notice is provided to Executive, and Executive is given an opportunity, together with counsel, to be heard before the Sanchez Board), finding that, in the good faith opinion of the Sanchez Board, Executive is guilty of the conduct described in Section 4(b)(i)(C) or 4(b)(i)(D), above, and specifying the particulars thereof in detail.
		

		
			For the purposes of this provision, no act or failure to act on the part of Executive shall be considered “willful” unless it is done, or omitted to be done, by Executive in bad faith and  without reasonable belief that Executive’s actions or omission was in the best interests of Sanchez Energy.

			provided,  that,  any of the conditions described in Section 4(b)(ii)(A) through 4(b)(ii)(D) above shall constitute Good Reason only if Sanchez Energy fails to cure such condition to the reasonable satisfaction of Executive within thirty (30) calendar days of receiving written notice from Executive of the condition which allegedly constitutes Good Reason; and provided further,  that,  Executive’s termination shall constitute a termination by Executive for Good Reason only if the Termination Date occurs not later than ninety  (90) calendar days following the initial existence of one or more of the conditions described in Section 4(b)(ii)(A) through 4(b)(ii)(D) above.

			hereunder shall include Sanchez Energy’s advancement of all costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection with the defense of any actual or threatened claim, subject to Executive’s execution of an undertaking meeting the requirements of Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.  Additionally, during the Term, and for at least six (6) years following the termination of Executive’s appointment as an officer of Sanchez Energy (regardless of the reason for such termination), Sanchez Energy shall maintain directors and officers insurance for the benefit of Executive that is no less favorable than the directors and officers insurance provided to any other director, officer, or executive of Sanchez Energy.   The rights provided in this Section 5 are in addition to any other rights to indemnification, exculpation, or contribution Executive may otherwise have under any agreement (including any indemnification agreement between Executive and Sanchez Energy or SOG),  contract, policy, by-law, certificate of incorporation, or otherwise.
		

		
			6.         Section 409A of the Code:
		

		
			(a)       This Agreement is intended to comply with, or be exempt from, Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) and will be interpreted accordingly. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any references under this Agreement to the termination of Executive’s appointment as an officer of, or provision of services to, Sanchez Energy, or “Termination Date” shall be deemed to refer to the date upon which Executive has experienced a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code.  It is the intent of the Parties that all compensation and benefits payable or provided to Executive (whether under this Agreement or otherwise) shall fully comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.  Accordingly, Sanchez Energy agrees that it will not, without Executive’s prior written consent, take any action inconsistent with this Agreement that would result in the imposition of tax, interest and/or penalties upon Executive under Section 409A of the Code.
		

		
			(b)       Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement or elsewhere to the contrary, if upon a termination of employment Executive is deemed to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A using the identification methodology selected by Sanchez Energy from time to time, or if none, the default methodology under Section 409A, any payments or benefits due upon a termination of Executive’s employment under any arrangement that constitutes a “deferral of compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A shall be delayed and paid or provided (or commence, in the case of installments) on the first payroll date on or following the earlier of (i) the date which is six (6) months and one (1) day after Executive’s termination of employment for any reason other than death (the “Delayed Payment Date”), and (ii) the date of Executive’s death, and any remaining payments and benefits shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for such payment or benefit; provided, that, payments or benefits that qualify as short-term deferral (within the meaning of Section 409A and Final Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(b)(4)) or involuntary separation pay (within the meaning of Section 409A and Final Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii)(A)) and are otherwise permissible under Section 409A and the Final Treasury Regulations, shall not be subject to such six-month delay.  On the Delayed Payment Date, Sanchez Energy will pay to Executive a lump sum equal to all amounts that would have been paid during the period of the delay if the delay were not required plus interest on such amount at a rate equal to the short-term applicable federal rate then in effect, and will thereafter continue to

			pay Executive the Severance Payment in installments in accordance with this Section.  Additionally, to the extent that Executive’s receipt of any in-kind benefits from Sanchez Energy or its affiliates must be delayed pursuant to this Section 6(b), Executive may elect to instead purchase and receive such benefits during the period in which the provision of benefits would otherwise be delayed by paying Sanchez Energy (or its affiliates) for the fair market value of such benefits (as determined by Sanchez Energy in good faith) during such period. Any amounts paid by Sanchez Energy pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be reimbursed to Executive (with interest thereon) as described above on the date that is six (6) months following Executive’s separation from service.
		

		
			(c)        Each payment made under this Agreement shall be designated as a “separate payment” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code.
		

		
			(d)        In the event that either Executive or Sanchez Energy’s senior management becomes aware that any provision of this Agreement violates Section 409A of the Code, the Parties will meet and confer regarding such issues and will engage in good faith discussions regarding whether and how the Agreement can be modified so as to minimize the likelihood of a Section 409A violation while providing Executive with financial terms substantially commensurate to those set forth in this Agreement.
		

		
			7.         Tax Withholding.  SOG or Sanchez Energy, as applicable, may withhold from any payments or benefits referenced under this Agreement, and payable from SOG or Sanchez Energy, as applicable, to Executive, all federal, state, city or other taxes as shall be required pursuant to any law or governmental regulation or ruling, and any deductions authorized by Executive.
		

		
			8.         Entire Agreement:  This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between Executive and Sanchez Energy with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all prior agreements, understandings, discussions, negotiations, and/or undertakings, whether written or oral.  Executive specifically agrees that Executive is not relying on any representations, promises, understandings, discussions, negotiations, or undertakings, whether written or oral, express or implied, other than those contained in this Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement supersedes or affects the validity of (i) any indemnification agreement, long term incentive plan, or equity, severance, bonus or other similar agreement between Executive and SOG or Sanchez Energy, or any of their parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, or related companies, or any of their successors, or (ii) the Services Agreement,  which shall remain in effect in accordance with their terms.
		

		
			9.         Governing Law: This Agreement shall be interpreted and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to the principles of conflict of laws.
		

		
			10.       Invalid or Unenforceable Provisions: If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be unenforceable as a matter of governing law, a reviewing shall have the authority to “blue pencil” or otherwise modify such provision so as to render it enforceable while maintaining the Parties’ original intent (as reflected herein) to the maximum extent possible.

			(a)        This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of Sanchez Energy, and its successors and assigns, and Sanchez Energy shall require any successor or assign to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that Sanchez Energy would be required to perform this Agreement if no such succession or assignment had taken place. The term “Sanchez Energy” as used herein shall include each such entity’s successors and assigns. The term “successors and assigns” as used herein shall include, without limitation, a corporation or other entity acquiring a majority ownership of Sanchez Energy or all or substantially all the assets and business of Sanchez Energy (including this Agreement), whether by operation of law or otherwise.
		

		
			(b)        Neither this Agreement nor any right or interest hereunder shall be assignable or transferable by Executive, or by Executive’s beneficiaries or legal representatives, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.  This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Executive’s legal personal representative.
		

		
			(c)        SOG is an intended third party beneficiary of this Agreement and of the obligations of Sanchez Energy and Executive hereunder, and shall have standing to enforce this Agreement in accordance with its terms.
		

		
			12.       No Waiver: No failure on the part of any Party at any time  to require the performance by any other Party of any term of this Agreement shall be taken or held to be a waiver of such term or in any way affect such Party’s right to enforce such term,  and no waiver on the part of any Party of any term of this Agreement shall be taken or held to be a waiver of any other term hereof or the breach hereof.
		

		
			13.       Modification or Amendment: This Agreement may not be modified, altered, or amended, nor shall any new contract be entered into between the Parties hereto, except in a writing signed by both Executive and a member of the Sanchez Board.

			15.       Construction:  The Parties have had ample opportunity to review, and have in fact reviewed and understand, this Agreement.  Accordingly, the normal rule of construction, to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party, shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement.  For purposes of this Agreement, the connectives “and,” “or,” and “and/or” shall be construed either disjunctively or conjunctively as necessary to bring within the scope of a sentence or clause all subject matter that might otherwise be construed to be outside of its scope.
