WITHOUT PREJUDICE UNTIL ACCEPTED

Dear Glenn:

Re:    Severance Agreement

As discussed, this letter agreement (the "Settlement Letter") confirms that effective January 31, 2015, your employment with Bakken Hunter Canada, Inc. ("BHC"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Magnum Hunter Resources Corporation ("MHR"), is terminated, and confirms our mutual understanding and agreement with respect thereto as follows:
		
	1.
	Your employment with BHC (and, for the avoidance of doubt, any other affiliate of BHC, including MHR and its affiliates) (collectively, the "Company") will be terminated by the Company effective at the close of business on January 31, 2015 (the "Termination Date"). 

		
	2.
	BHC will pay you all accrued and unpaid salary owed to you by BHC, less applicable statutory withholding deductions, for up to and including the Termination Date under BHC's payroll system and reimburse you for unreimbursed business expenses properly incurred by you on behalf of the Company, which reimbursement shall be subject to and paid in accordance with the Company’s Travel and Expense Management Policy.

		
	3.
	BHC will pay you all unused accrued “paid time off” which is owing to you by BHC as of the Termination Date as soon as possible under BHC's payroll system after the Termination Date.  You acknowledge and agree that BHC owes you CAD $1,891.03 for unused accrued “paid time off,” less applicable statutory deductions, for up to and including the Termination Date.

		
	4.
	BHC will continue its contributions to your health benefits provider until the Termination Date at which time such contributions will cease. You are solely responsible for arranging for continued coverage after this time by contacting your benefits provider. 

		
	5.
	MHR offers you an additional CAD $550,000.00 (the "Severance Payment"), representing approximately 97 weeks of base salary, payable in approximately equal installments on your BHC regular bi-monthly pay dates by way of salary continuance for the period from February 1, 2015 to June 15, 2015 (the "Salary Continuance Period"), subject to the following:

		
	(a)
	You must notify MHR prior to your commencement of each and every alternate employment if you secure alternate employment that commences within the Salary Continuance Period. For purposes of this agreement, “alternate employment” shall mean and include any direct or indirect employment, consulting, independent contractor or other “for hire” relationship or arrangement, or whatever kind or nature (including a sole proprietorship or other company, partnership or entity through which you conduct business), other than a consulting arrangement between you and the Company;

		
	(b)
	In the event that you do commence alternate employment during the Salary Continuance Period, you must notify MHR of all compensation received or earned by you, directly or indirectly, during the Salary Continuance Period;

		
	(c)
	In the event that you do commence alternate employment during the Salary Continuance Period, for that period of time between the date you commence alternate employment and the end of the Salary Continuance Period (the "Remaining Salary Continuance Period"), you will be entitled to the remaining Severance Payment which would have been paid to you less any other compensation you earn or receive, directly or indirectly, over the Remaining Salary Continuance Period, payable by way of salary continuance over the Remaining Salary Continuance Period;

		
	(d)
	The Severance Payment shall be less applicable statutory withholding deductions;

		
	(e)
	The Severance Payment is in lieu of all salary, benefits, bonuses, and other remuneration payable to you upon termination of employment and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, is inclusive of all statutory, common law, and/or contractual notice of termination to which you may be entitled;

		
	(f)
	MHR may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, deduct from the Severance Payment any amounts owed by you or your affiliates to the Company pursuant to this Settlement Letter, the enclosed Release and Confidentiality Agreement or any other agreement, arrangement or undertaking between you or your affiliates and the Company; and

		
	(g)
	No portion of the Severance Payment will be paid or payable to you if, prior to the Termination Date, your employment is terminated by the Company for cause or by reason of your death or disability or if you voluntarily terminate your employment with the Company.

		
	6.
	Pursuant to the various Stock Option Agreements between you and MHR, as well as the Restricted Stock Award Agreements between you and MHR (the "Grant Agreements"), you have received various stock options (the "Options") and restricted stock awards (the "Restricted Stock").  Any Options and/or Restricted Stock that you have received are subject to the terms and conditions of the Grant Agreements and the terms and conditions of the MHR Amended and Restated Stock Incentive Plan, dated August 12, 2010 (as amended, the "Plan").  As per the Plan, for the purposes of any Options or Restricted Stock that have been granted to you by the Grant Agreements, the termination date of your employment shall be the Termination Date.

		
	7.
	You are required to return all Company property or information which belongs to the Company by the close of business on the Termination Date.

		
	8.
	You hereby resign as a director and officer of MHR, and each of its subsidiaries and affiliates, if applicable, effective as at the Termination Date.

		
	9.
	You shall not, at any time, make any false, disparaging, derogatory or defamatory statements (oral or written) in public or in private regarding the Company’s business affairs, business prospects, financial condition, directors, officers, employees or agents, and that of its parent(s), subsidiaries and affiliates, to any party, including, but not limited to, any media outlet, industry group, financial institution, or current or former employee, consultant, or customer of the Company.

		
	10.
	During your employment with the Company you had access to certain confidential and proprietary information of or relating to the Company, the disclosure of which could be harmful to the interests of the Company.  As used herein, “Confidential Information” means any information of a confidential or proprietary nature which relates to the Company, including trade secrets, technical expertise or information, marketing strategies, sales and pricing policies, financial information, business, marketing or technical plans, programs, methods, techniques, concepts, formulas, documentation, intellectual property, software, industrial designs, products, technical studies and data, strategic studies, engineering information, client and supplier lists, personnel information, and all documents relating to intellectual property, discoveries, concepts, ideas, improvements, inventions, patents, activities, technology, machinery, equipment, developments and know-how, and any other materials or information related to the business or activities of the Company which has not been made available generally to the public.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information shall not include any information which is or becomes public knowledge through no fault of yours.  You will keep all Confidential Information of the Company confidential, and will not disclose it to any person, or use it for any purpose, and you have taken and will in the future take appropriate precautions to safeguard the Confidential Information.

		
	11.
	The Company owns and controls all Confidential Information and proprietary information, technology, inventions, know how, work product, improvements or discoveries, whether or not patentable, including works 

of expression and all copyrights on such works (the "Proprietary Information"), that were developed, created or conceived by you, whether alone or in conjunction with others, while employed by the Company. You will immediately return all such Confidential Information and Proprietary Information to the Company by the Termination Date.

This settlement offer and the Severance Payment are contingent upon you executing the enclosed Release and Confidentiality Agreement.  You acknowledge that we have encouraged you to have counsel review the Release and Confidentiality Agreement and the settlement terms contained herein. 
If you are in agreement with the foregoing, please sign and return a copy of this letter agreement and the attached Release and Confidentiality Agreement, and return them to the writer, upon which this letter agreement and the Release and Confidentiality Agreement will constitute legally binding agreements between the parties.
