 Re: Securities Custodial Arrangement. 

Ladies and Gentlemen: 
 Reference is made hereby
to the Stock Purchase Agreement, dated November 21, 2021 (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”), by and between Gen IV Investment Opportunities, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Seller”), and Paloma
Partners VI Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Purchaser”), pursuant to which Seller agreed to sell and Purchaser agreed to purchase, 1,838,510 shares of common stock of, par value $0.01 per share (CUSIP
No. 382410843) (the “Securities”) of Goodrich Petroleum Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Goodrich”). The parties hereto are affiliates and are entering into this letter agreement (this “Letter
Agreement”) to memorialize their understanding and agreement with respect to a custodial arrangement pertaining to the Securities as set forth below. 

1. Special Opportunities Capital, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Custodian”) agrees, immediately upon and after
settlement of the purchase and sale contemplated in Section 1 of the Stock Purchase Agreement, to hold the Securities as custodian for and on behalf of Purchaser, in Custodian’s prime brokerage account, solely for the benefit of Purchaser,
all upon the terms and conditions and subject to the limitations hereinafter set forth. Purchaser does not have a brokerage account to be used to hold the Securities, and Custodian desires on behalf of its affiliate, Purchaser, to facilitate the
settlement of the transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement. 
 2. Purchaser shall beneficially own the Securities. 

3. With respect to the Securities, Custodian shall act solely as custodian and shall solicit and follow the instructions of Purchaser in all
matters relating to the Securities, including following Purchaser’s instructions as to the voting of the Securities in all matters as to which the Securities are entitled to be voted. In the absence of instructions from Purchaser, Custodian
shall not take any action with respect to the Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Custodian shall not be required to take any action that would violate the transfer restrictions and other conditions and limitations to which the Securities are
subject pursuant to the organizational documents of Goodrich, or any applicable law or regulation. For so long as the Securities are held by Custodian, (i) Purchaser shall have sole dispositive and voting power, and sole power to make all other
decisions, in each case, with respect to the Securities and (ii) Purchaser shall be deemed the owner of the Securities for all purposes. 












 4. With respect to the Securities, Custodian is exclusively the bailee of Purchaser, holds
the Securities solely for the benefit of Purchaser, and undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in Letter Agreement. 

5. The Custodian agrees that it will not charge any fees or receive any compensation in discharging its duties under this Letter Agreement.

 6. In the absence of bad faith on the part of Custodian, Custodian may conclusively rely on instructions provided by Purchaser or the
advice of competent attorneys, accountants, and other professionals in taking an action, omitting to take an action, or otherwise discharging its duties under this Letter Agreement. 

7. Purchaser may remove Custodian at any time upon providing written notice of removal. In such event, Purchaser shall appoint a successor
custodian hereunder, or upon written instruction by Purchaser, transfer the Securities to a brokerage account maintained by or on behalf of Purchaser, or take such other action with respect to the Securities as specified by Purchaser. 

8. All notices, requests and other communications to any party hereunder shall be in writing (including electronic mail (“e-mail”) transmission, so long as a receipt of such e-mail is requested and received) and shall be given,

 10. No provision of this
Letter Agreement may be amended, countermanded or otherwise modified without the prior written consent of Purchaser and Custodian. 
 11.
This Letter Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument, it being understood that the parties need not sign the
same counterpart. Any such counterpart, to the extent delivered by fax or .pdf, .tif, .gif, .jpg or similar attachment to electronic mail (any such delivery, an “Electronic Delivery”), will be treated in all manner and respects as
an original executed counterpart and will be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. This Letter Agreement shall become effective when each party shall have received a
counterpart hereof signed (including by electronic signature) by all of the other parties hereto. Until and unless each party has received a counterpart hereof signed (including by electronic signature) by the other parties, this Letter Agreement
shall have no effect and no party shall have any right or obligation hereunder (whether by virtue of any other oral or written agreement or other communication). No party may raise the use of an Electronic Delivery to deliver a signature, or the
fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of an Electronic Delivery, as a defense to the formation of a valid and binding contract, and each party forever waives any such defense, except to
the extent such defense relates to lack of authenticity.
