after such party has received written notice thereof; provided that if such failure cannot be cured within such ninety (90) day period, no default shall occur if the relevant party has begun good faith efforts to cure the failure within such

material failure to perform has occurred, no termination of this Agreement shall occur until the defaulting party has the opportunity to cure provided by this section, after the existence of such
failure has been determined in accordance with this Agreement. 
 If any of the Events of Default enumerated in this
Section 5.2 occurs, then in such event and as often as the same occurs without cure, the non-defaulting party may, at its option terminate this Agreement by providing ninety (90) days written notice. 

Exercise of the foregoing remedies shall not preclude the parties from exercising every other remedy provided herein or at law, it being
the intention of the parties that parties’ remedies shall be cumulative and shall survive termination of this Agreement. 

5.4 ASSIGNMENT: New Dominion shall not assign its rights or obligations pursuant to this Agreement without first receiving
the written consent of New Source Energy and the Partnership to such assignment. 
 5.5 NOTICES: Any notice
required to be given hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to be delivered when properly addressed and posted by certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to any party hereto at the address shown on the first page
hereof, or at such other address as either party shall designate to the other by do notice. 
 5.6 GOVERNING LAW:
This Agreement shall be constructed in accordance with, and governed in all respects by, the laws of the State of Oklahoma, without regard to its conflicts of laws principles. 
 5.7 BINDING AGREEMENT: This Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the parties hereto. 

5.8 FORCE MAJEURE: In the event performance of New Dominion’s obligations hereunder is prevented by labor disputes; by
law, regulations, or statues enforced by any governmental agency; or by other extraordinary causes beyond the reasonable control of New Dominion, the obligations of New Dominion under this Agreement shall be suspended, and during such suspension New
Source Energy and the Partnership shall be relieved of the obligation to make any payments to New Dominion as provided for herein. New Dominion shall give New Source Energy and the Partnership prompt notice of any claimed force majeure event and
shall use its best efforts to eliminate or mitigate any such event. 
 5.9 ARBITRATION. If any controversy, claim
or dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach or performance thereof occurs, the parties shall meet and exert reasonable efforts to reach an amicable settlement for a period not to exceed twenty (20) days from the date
written notice of the controversy, claim or dispute is served by the complaining party to the other party under this Agreement. If for any reason such settlement fails to occur within such twenty-day period (or such other period as the parties may
agree in writing), the parties will then enlist the services of a mutually agreed upon industry representative to facilitate negotiations for an additional twenty (20) day period in an attempt to resolve the controversy. If a favorable
resolution is not attained within the additional twenty (20) day period, (or such other 

  
 8 

 
period as the parties may agree in writing), the controversy, claim or dispute shall be finally and conclusively resolved by a binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration
Association in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules (“AAA Rules”) and subject to the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. Sections 1 et seq., and judgment on any award thereby rendered may be entered in any court
having jurisdiction thereof. 
 (a) Any such arbitration shall proceed as promptly and as expeditiously as possible (and the
parties shall cooperate to this end) before three arbitrators, consisting of one arbitrator appointed by the claimant, one arbitrator appointed by the respondent, and the third arbitrator appointed by the two party-appointed arbitrators. Arbitration
shall be initiated by written notice of intention to arbitrate made pursuant to the AAA Rules. The claimant shall identify its appointed arbitrator in the notice of intention to arbitrate, and the respondent shall identify its appointed arbitrator
within ten (10) days of its receipt of the notice of intention to arbitrate. The two party-appointed arbitrators shall agree upon and appoint the third arbitrator within the ten (10) day period following the appointment of the second
party-appointed arbitrator. If either the claimant or the respondent fail to appoint an arbitrator pursuant to the foregoing, or if the two party-appointed arbitrators fail to agree upon and appoint the third arbitrator within the above-referenced
ten (10) day period, then such arbitrator or arbitrators shall be appointed by the AAA pursuant to the AAA Rules. The arbitrators chosen or appointed shall have expertise and/or experience in the oil and gas industry. 

(b) Nothing in this Section shall be deemed to preclude any party from applying to any court of competent jurisdiction at any time prior
to the formation of the arbitration panel (including before or during the twenty (20) day negotiation period referenced in the first sentence of this Section) for injunctive, provisional or other emergency relief pertaining to the subject
matter of a controversy, claim or dispute that is arbitrable hereunder, or applying for such relief in aid of arbitration after formation of the arbitration panel, where (i) the arbitration award to which the party may be entitled may be
rendered ineffectual without such relief, (ii) the party seeking such relief is not in breach of this Section, and (iii) the relief sought will not materially delay or frustrate the arbitration. The grant or denial of any court-ordered
relief pursuant to this paragraph shall not constitute or be deemed to be a ruling on the merits of the matter to be arbitrated, nor shall any application for such relief be deemed to be a waiver of any right to arbitration hereunder. 

(c) The parties hereby agree that the costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection with any arbitration or
court proceeding hereunder shall be awarded in favor of the prevailing party and against the losing party as determined by the arbitration panel or court, as the case may be. 
 5.10 COMPLETE AGREEMENT: This Agreement and the exhibits hereto embody the complete understanding between the parties with respect to the subject-matter hereof, and no oral agreement
amending, revising, or supplementing this Agreement shall be binding on either party unless reduced to writing and executed by both parties.
