If Individual has a Qualifying Termination and Individual satisfies the conditions to the payment of a Severance Benefit
as described below, the Company shall pay the Severance Benefit to Individual.

 

(b)              
Any amounts payable under Section 2.1(a) shall be paid to Individual on the sixtieth (60th) day after the date of
Individual’s Qualifying Termination; provided, however, that as a condition to receiving any such payment or payments, Individual
(or Individual’s estate, as applicable) will be required to do both of the following: (i) execute and not revoke a general
release of claims against the Company Group, with such general release becoming effective (and any applicable revocation period
having lapsed) on or before the sixtieth (60th) day after the date of Individual’s termination, and (ii) execute a certification
of compliance with his or her obligations to return Confidential Information.

 

2.2             
Additional Benefits.

 

(a)              
In the event of a Qualifying Termination, the Severance Benefit will be paid in addition to any accrued and unpaid compensation
due to Individual as of his or her termination date, which may include (i) any unpaid bonus for any calendar year ending before
Individual’s termination date that is actually earned by Individual (without regard to any requirement that Individual must
remain employed by Company on the date such bonus is paid), and calculated in accordance with the terms of the applicable bonus
arrangement that is in effect with respect to Individual during that year, (ii) accrued base salary and (iii) such other fringe
benefits (other than any bonus, severance pay benefit, or medical insurance benefit) normally provided to similarly situated employees
of the Company that shall have been earned up to the date of termination, including pay for accrued and unused paid-time-off (in
accordance with the benefit policies then in effect).

 

    4

     

    

 

(b)              
Individual shall also be entitled to a prorated amount of the bonus (to the date of such Individual’s Qualifying Termination)
for the calendar year in which Individual’s Qualifying Termination occurs to the extent such bonus would have otherwise been
earned by Individual (had his or her employment not terminated due to a Qualifying Termination) in accordance with the terms of
the applicable bonus arrangement that is in effect with respect to Individual during that year. Such prorated bonus shall not be
made unless and until Individual has, as of such date, satisfied the conditions described in Section 2.1(b) above and shall
be payable on the later of (i) the date that the bonus would have been paid under such applicable bonus arrangement (had Individual’s
employment not terminated due to a Qualifying Termination), or (ii) the date on which Individual has satisfied the conditions described
in Section 2.1(b) above.

 

(c)              
For a period of twelve (12) months following Individual’s Qualifying Termination, or if Individual has not satisfied
the conditions described in Section 2.1(b) above, for a period of sixty (60) days after the date of Individual’s termination,
the Company shall, at its sole expense, provide Individual with outplacement services, the scope and provider of which shall be
selected by Individual in his or her discretion; provided, however, that (i) any expense for such outplacement services shall be
paid or reimbursed by the Company as soon as practicable after such expense is incurred, but in no event later than (A) thirty
(30) days after such expense is incurred if incurred directly by the Company, or (B) thirty (30) days after such expense is submitted
by Individual to Company for reimbursement, and (ii) the total amount of the expenses paid or reimbursed by the Company pursuant
to this Section 2.2(c) shall not exceed $50,000.

 

(d)              
To the extent Individual is eligible to earn a Target Bonus, Individual’s assigned bonus target percentage shall not
be materially reduced during any time (i) that Individual is employed by a member of the Company Group or (ii) following Individual’s
termination or separation for any reason other than his or her involuntary termination for Cause or voluntary termination without
Good Reason.

 

2.3             
Non-duplication. The amount payable to Individual under Sections 2.1 and 2.2 is in lieu of, and not
in addition to, any severance payment due or to become due to Individual under (i) any separate agreement or contract between Individual
and the Company or any other member of the Company Group, (ii) any severance payment plan, program, policy, or practice of the
Company or any other member of the Company Group or (iii) any severance benefit required by law (collectively clauses (i) –
(iii), a “Severance Plan”), it being understood that any equity-related award granted to Individual under
the long-term incentive plans of a member of the Company Group shall not constitute a Severance Plan for purposes of this Section
2.3.

 

2.4             
Potential Parachute Payment Adjustment.

 

(a)              
If the payments and benefits provided to Individual under this Agreement or under any other agreement with, or plan of,
the Company or any Person or entity which is a party to a transaction involving the Company or its affiliates (the “Total
Payment”) (i) constitute a “parachute payment” as defined in Code Section 280G and exceed three (3) times
Individual’s “base amount” as defined under Code Section 280G(b)(3), and (ii) would, but for this Section
2.4(a), be subject to the excise tax imposed by Code Section 4999, then Individual’s payments and benefits under this
Agreement shall be either (A) paid in full, or (B) reduced and payable only as to the maximum amount which would result in no portion
of such payments and benefits being subject to excise tax under Code Section 4999, whichever results in the receipt by Individual
on an after-tax basis of the greatest amount of Total Payment (taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income
taxes, the excise tax imposed by Code Section 4999 and all other taxes (including any interest and penalties) payable by Individual).
If a reduction of the Total Payment is necessary, cash severance payments provided for herein shall first be reduced (such reduction
to be applied first to the earliest payments otherwise scheduled to occur), and the non-cash severance benefits provided for herein
shall thereafter be reduced (such reduction to be applied first to the benefits otherwise scheduled to occur the earliest). If,
as a result of any reduction required by this Section 2.4(a), amounts previously paid to Individual exceed the amount to
which Individual is entitled, Individual will promptly return the excess amount to the Company.

 

    5

     

    

 

(b)              
All determinations required to be made under this Section 2.4, including whether reductions are necessary, may be
made, in the discretion of the Company, by an accounting or financial consulting firm selected by the Company for such purposes
(the “Accounting Firm”). The Accounting Firm shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the
Company and to Individual. All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by the Company.

 

2.5             
Death or Disability of Individual. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 2.5, if Individual’s
employment terminates due to death or Disability, then this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to Individual
or his or her estate, as applicable, under this Agreement. In either event, however, the Company, in addition to any obligations
owed to Individual under any other applicable agreement with any member of the Company Group (i) will pay any accrued and unpaid
compensation due to Individual as of his or her termination date, as described in Section 2.2(a) as if Individual’s
termination of employment had been a Qualifying Termination, and (ii) will pay the prorated bonus described in Section 2.2(b)
as if Individual’s termination of employment had been a Qualifying Termination; provided that, payment of such compensation
and benefits with respect to Section 2.2(b) shall only be made if Individual or his or her legal representative or his or
her estate, as applicable, has satisfied the conditions described in Section 2.1(b).

 

ARTICLE III

Confidential Information and Non-Competition; Other Covenants

 

3.1             
Covenant Not to Disclose Confidential Information. Individual acknowledges that, during the course of his or her
employment with the Company, he or she has or will have access to and knowledge of certain information and data that the Company
or other members of the Company Group consider confidential and that the release of such information or data to unauthorized Persons
would be extremely detrimental to the Company Group. As a consequence, Individual hereby agrees and acknowledges that he or she
owes a duty to the Company not to disclose, and agrees that, during or after the term of his or her employment, without the prior
written consent of the Company, he or she will not communicate, publish, or disclose, to any Person anywhere or use any Confidential
Information (as hereinafter defined) for any purpose other than carrying out his or her duties as contemplated in connection with
his or her employment with respect to the Company or any Company Group member. Individual will use his or her best efforts at all
times to hold in confidence and to safeguard any Confidential Information from falling into the hands of any unauthorized Person
and, in particular, will not permit any Confidential Information to be read, duplicated, or copied. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Individual may disclose such Confidential Information to the extent required by applicable law or as a consequence of any judicial
or regulatory proceeding, based upon the opinion of legal counsel and only after Individual has requested that such Confidential
Information be preserved to the maximum extent practicable. To the extent permitted by law, Individual will advise the Company
in advance of any intended disclosure to comply with legal requirements. Individual will return to the Company all Confidential
Information in Individual’s possession or under Individual’s control when the duties of Individual no longer require
Individual’s possession thereof, or whenever the Company shall so request, and in any event will promptly return all such
Confidential Information if Individual’s relationship with the Company is terminated for any reason and will not retain any
copies thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein prohibits Individual from reporting possible violations of law or
regulation to any governmental agency or entity, including but not limited to the Department of Justice, the Securities and Exchange
Commission, the Congress, and any agency Inspector General, or making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower
provisions of federal or state law or regulation. Individual does not need the prior authorization of the Company to make any such
reports or disclosures, and Individual is not required to notify the Company that he or she has made such reports or disclosures.
Individual shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade
secret that (i) is made (A) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or
to an attorney; and (B) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (ii) is made in a
complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. For purposes hereof, the
term “Confidential Information” shall mean any information or data used by or belonging or relating to
the Company or any other member of the Company Group or any of their representatives that is not known generally to the industry
in which any member of the Company Group is or may be engaged (other than as a result of disclosure by Individual in violation
of this Agreement), including without limitation, any and all trade secrets, proprietary data, and information relating to any
member of the Company Group’s past, present, or future business and products, price lists, customer lists, processes, procedures
or standards, know-how, manuals, business strategies, records, drawings, specifications, designs, financial information, whether
or not reduced to writing, or information or data that the Company or any other member of the Company Group advises Individual
should be treated as confidential information.

 

    6

     

    

 

3.2             
Covenant Not to Compete. In partial consideration for Individual’s access to Confidential Information and the
benefits provided by this Agreement, Individual agrees that while employed by the Company, Individual shall not, unless Individual
receives the prior written consent of the Board, own an interest in, manage, operate, join, control, lend money or render financial
or other assistance to, or participate in, or be connected with, as an officer, manager, employee, partner, stockholder, consultant,
or otherwise, any Person that competes with any member of the Company Group in (i) the purchasing, selling, brokering, or marketing
of natural gas, natural gas liquids, oil, hydrocarbons, brine, water, or any derivative product thereof, including, without limitation,
locating buyers and sellers, or negotiating purchase and sales contracts; (ii) the gathering, processing, fractionation, stabilization,
and/or transporting of natural gas, natural gas liquids, oil, hydrocarbons, brine, water, or any derivative product thereof; or
(iii) the conduct of a business enterprise that is in a business segment that contributes five percent (5%) or more to the Company’s
gross revenue or deploys five percent (5%) or more of the Company’s fixed assets. Ownership by Individual, as a passive investment,
of less than one half of one percent (0.5%) of the outstanding securities of any organization with securities listed on a national
securities exchange or publicly traded in the over-the-counter market shall not constitute a breach of this Section 3.2.

 

3.3             
Covenant not to Solicit Customers. In partial consideration for Individual’s access to Confidential Information
and the benefits provided by this Agreement, Individual agrees that while employed by the Company and for a period of twelve (12)
months after the termination of such employment (for any reason), Individual shall not (i) persuade or encourage any Person that
was a client or customer of any member of the Company Group at any time during the twelve (12) months prior to the termination
of Individual’s employment to cease conducting or fail to renew existing business with that member of the Company Group,
or (ii) use any confidential or proprietary information of any member of the Company Group to directly or indirectly solicit business
from, or to interrupt, disturb, or interfere with any member of the Company Group’s relationships with, any Person that was
a client or customer of any member of the Company Group at any time during the twelve (12) months prior to the termination of Individual’s
employment.

 

3.4             
Covenant not to Solicit Employees. In partial consideration for Individual’s access to Confidential Information
and the benefits provided by this Agreement, Individual agrees that while employed by the Company and for a period of twenty-four
(24) months after the termination of such employment (for any reason), Individual shall not solicit, endeavor to entice, or induce
any employee of any member of the Company Group to terminate such Person’s employment or service with such member or accept
employment with anyone else; provided, however, that a general solicitation of the public for employment shall not constitute a
solicitation hereunder.

 

3.5             
Covenant Against Disparagement. In partial consideration for Individual’s access to Confidential Information
and the benefits provided by this Agreement, Individual agrees that while employed by the Company and thereafter, he or she will
not make any statements disparaging any member of the Company Group or any of their officers, directors, or employees that could
reasonably be expected to be harmful to the interests of the Company or the Company Group. This covenant shall not apply to any
statement made in the context of any legal or regulatory proceeding or the reporting of possible violations of law or regulation
to a governmental agency or entity, as described in Section 3.1.

 

3.6             
Specific Performance. Recognizing that irreparable damage will result to the Company in the event of the breach or
threatened breach of any of the foregoing covenants and assurances by Individual contained in this Article III, and that
the Company’s remedies at law for any such breach or threatened breach will be inadequate, the Company and its successors
and assigns, in addition to such other remedies that may be available to them, shall be entitled to an injunction, including a
mandatory injunction (without the necessity of (i) proving irreparable harm, (ii) establishing that monetary damages are inadequate,
or (iii) posting any bond with respect thereto), to be issued by any court of competent jurisdiction ordering compliance with this
Agreement or enjoining and restraining Individual, and each and every Person, firm, or company acting in concert or participation
with him or her, from the continuation of such breach and, in addition thereto, he or she shall pay to the Company all ascertainable
damages, including costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees sustained by the Company or any other member of the Company Group
by reason of the breach or threatened breach of said covenants and assurances.

 

    7

     

    

 

3.7             
Clawback. Individual agrees that in the event that the Company determines that Individual has breached any term of
this Article III, in addition to any other remedies at law or in equity the Company may have available to it, the Company
may in its sole discretion require that Individual repay to the Company, within five (5) business days of receipt of written demand
therefor, an amount equal to the amounts paid to or on behalf of Individual pursuant to Sections 2.1, 2.2(b), and
2.2(c).

 

3.8             
Miscellaneous.

 

(a)              
Individual has carefully read and considered the provisions of this Article III and, having done so, agrees that
the restrictions set forth in this Article III (including the relevant time periods, scope of activity to be restrained,
and the geographical scope) are fair and reasonable and are reasonably required for the protection of the interests of the Company
Group and their respective officers, directors, managers, employees, creditors, partners, members, and unitholders. Individual
understands that the restrictions contained in Article III may limit his or her ability to engage in a business similar
to the business of any member of the Company Group but acknowledges that he or she will receive sufficiently high remuneration
and other benefits from the Company Group to justify such restrictions.

 

(b)              
The covenants and obligations of Individual set forth in this Article III are in addition to, and not in lieu of,
or exclusive of, any other obligations and duties of Individual to the Company Group, whether express or implied in fact or in
law.

 

(c)              
In the event that any provision of this Article III relating to the relevant time periods, scope of activity, and/or
the areas of restriction hereunder shall be declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to exceed the maximum time period, scope,
or areas such court deems reasonable and enforceable, the relevant time periods, scope of activity, and/or areas of restriction
deemed reasonable and enforceable by the court shall become and thereafter be the maximum time period, scope of activity, and/or
areas.

 

ARTICLE IV

Dodd-Frank Clawback

 

Individual agrees and
acknowledges that any and all compensation Individual receives pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to clawback by the Company
to the extent provided in policies adopted by the Board to comply with the requirements of Section 954 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street

employment or otherwise accruing under this Agreement shall survive such termination.

 

(c)              
The Company shall have the right to amend this Agreement without Individual’s consent, which amendment shall be evidenced

Section, or other subdivision, (ii) reference to any Article or Section, means such Article or Section hereof, (iii) the word “including”
(and with correlative meaning “include”) means including, without limiting the generality of any description preceding
such term, and (iv) where any provision of this Agreement refers to action to be taken by either party, or which such party is
prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such party.

 

5.3             
Effect on Other Plans. Except in the case of a Severance Plan, as defined in Section 2.3, nothing in this
Agreement shall prevent or limit Individual’s continuing or future participation in any other plan, program, policy, or practice
provided by the Company or any other member of the Company Group for which Individual may qualify, nor shall anything herein limit
or otherwise affect such rights as Individual may have under any other contract or agreement with the Company or any other member
of the Company Group. Amounts which are vested benefits or which Individual is otherwise entitled to receive under any such other
plan, policy, practice, program, contract, or agreement (“Other Arrangement”) at or subsequent to the

2.1             
Change in Control Benefit; Release.

 

(a)              
If Individual has a Qualifying Termination and Individual satisfies the conditions to the payment of a Change in Control
Benefit as described below, the Company shall pay the Change in Control Benefit to Individual.

 

(b)              
Any amounts payable under Section 2.1(a) shall be paid to Individual on the sixtieth (60th) day after the
date Individual’s Qualifying Termination becomes effective for purposes of this Agreement; provided, however, that
as a condition to receiving any such payment or payments, Individual (or Individual’s estate, as applicable) will be
required to do both of the following: (i) execute and not revoke a general release of claims against the Company Group, with such
general release becoming effective (and any applicable revocation period having lapsed) on or before the sixtieth (60th) day after
the date Individual’s Qualifying Termination becomes effective for purposes of this Agreement, and (ii) execute a certification
of compliance with his or her obligations to return Confidential Information.

 

2.2             
Additional Benefits.

 

(a)              
In the event of a Qualifying Termination, the Change in Control Benefit will be paid in addition to any accrued and unpaid
compensation due to Individual as of his or her termination date, which may include (i) any unpaid bonus for any calendar
year ending before Individual’s termination date that is actually earned by Individual (without regard to any requirement
that Individual must remain employed by Company on the date such bonus is paid), and calculated in accordance with the terms of
the applicable bonus arrangement that is in effect with respect to Individual during that year, (ii) accrued base salary and
(iii) such other fringe benefits (other than any bonus, severance pay benefit, or medical insurance benefit) normally provided
to similarly situated employees of the Company that shall have been earned up to the date of termination, including pay for accrued
and unused paid-time-off (in accordance with the benefit policies then in effect).

 

(b)              
Individual shall also be entitled to a prorated amount of the bonus (to the date of such Individual’s Qualifying Termination)
for the calendar year in which Individual’s Qualifying Termination occurs to the extent such bonus would have otherwise been
earned by Individual (had his or her employment not terminated due to a Qualifying Termination) in accordance with the terms of
the applicable bonus arrangement that is in effect with respect to Individual during that year.  Such prorated bonus shall
not be made unless and until Individual has, as of such date, satisfied the conditions described in Section 2.1(b) above
and shall be payable on the later of (i) the date that the bonus would have been paid under such applicable bonus arrangement (had
Individual’s employment not terminated due to a Qualifying Termination), or (ii) the date on which Individual has satisfied
the conditions described in Section 2.1(b) above.

 

(c)              
For a period of twelve (12) months following Individual’s Qualifying Termination, or if Individual has not satisfied
the conditions described in Section 2.1(b) above, for a period of sixty (60) days after the date of Individual’s
termination, the Company shall, at its sole expense, provide Individual with outplacement services, the scope and provider of which
shall be selected by Individual in his or her discretion; provided, however, that (i) any expense for such outplacement services
shall be paid or reimbursed by the Company as soon as practicable after such expense is incurred, but in no event later than (A)
thirty (30) days after such expense is incurred if incurred directly by the Company, or (B) thirty (30) days after such expense
is submitted by Individual to Company for reimbursement, and (ii) the total amount of the expenses paid or reimbursed by the
Company pursuant to this Section 2.2(c) shall not exceed $50,000.

 

    5

     

    

 

(d)              
To the extent Individual is eligible to earn a Target Bonus, Individual’s assigned bonus target percentage shall not
be materially reduced during any time (i) that Individual is employed during a Protection Period by a member of the Company Group
or (ii) following Individual’s termination or separation for any reason that occurs within a Protection Period other than
his or her involuntary termination for Cause or voluntary termination without Good Reason.

 

2.3             
Non-duplication. The amount payable to Individual under Sections 2.1 and 2.2 is in lieu of, and not
in addition to, any severance payment due or to become due to Individual under (i) any separate agreement or contract between
Individual and the Company or any other member of the Company Group, (ii) any severance payment plan, program, policy or practice
of the Company or any other member of the Company Group or (iii) any severance benefit required by law (collectively clauses
(i)-(iii), a “Severance Plan”), it being understood that any equity-related award granted to Individual
under the long-term incentive plans of a member of the Company Group shall not constitute a Severance Plan for purposes of this
Section 2.3.

 

2.4             
Potential Parachute Payment Adjustment.

 

(a)              
If the payments and benefits provided to Individual under this Agreement or under any other agreement with, or plan of,
the Company or any Person or entity which is a party to a transaction involving the Company or its affiliates (the “Total
Payment”) (i) constitute a “parachute payment” as defined in Code Section 280G and exceed three
(3) times Individual’s “base amount” as defined under Code Section 280G(b)(3), and (ii) would,
but for this Section 2.4(a), be subject to the excise tax imposed by Code Section 4999, then Individual’s
payments and benefits under this Agreement shall be either (A) paid in full, or (B) reduced and payable only as to the
maximum amount which would result in no portion of such payments and benefits being subject to excise tax under Code Section 4999,
whichever results in the receipt by Individual on an after-tax basis of the greatest amount of Total Payment (taking into account
the applicable federal, state and local income taxes, the excise tax imposed by Code Section 4999 and all other taxes (including
any interest and penalties) payable by Individual).  If a reduction of the Total Payment is necessary, cash payments provided
for herein shall first be reduced (such reduction to be applied first to the earliest payments otherwise scheduled to occur), and
the non-cash benefits provided for herein shall thereafter be reduced (such reduction to be applied first to the benefits otherwise
scheduled to occur the earliest).  If, as a result of any reduction required by this Section 2.4(a), amounts previously
paid to Individual exceed the amount to which Individual is entitled, Individual will promptly return the excess amount to
the Company.

 

    6

     

    

 

(b)              
All determinations required to be made under this Section 2.4, including whether reductions are necessary, may
be made, in the discretion of the Company, by an accounting or financial consulting firm selected by the Company for such purposes
(the “Accounting Firm”).  The Accounting Firm shall provide detailed supporting calculations both
to the Company and to Individual.  All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by the Company.

 

2.5             
Death or Disability of Individual. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 2.5, if Individual’s
employment terminates due to death or Disability, then this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to Individual
or his or her estate, as applicable, under this Agreement. In either event, however, the Company, in addition to any obligations
owed to Individual under any other applicable agreement with any member of the Company Group (i) will pay any accrued and unpaid
compensation due to Individual as of his or her termination date, as described in Section 2.2(a) as if Individual’s
termination of employment had been a Qualifying Termination, and (ii) will pay the prorated bonus described in Section
2.2(b) as if Individual’s termination of employment had been a Qualifying Termination; provided that payment of such
compensation and benefits with respect to Section 2.2(b) shall only be made if Individual or his or her legal
representative or his or her estate, as applicable, has satisfied the conditions described in Section 2.1(b).

 

ARTICLE III

Confidential Information and Non-Competition; Other Covenants

 

3.1             
Covenant Not to Disclose Confidential Information. Individual acknowledges that, during the course of his or her
employment with the Company, he or she has or will have access to and knowledge of certain information and data that the Company
or other members of the Company Group consider confidential and that the release of such information or data to unauthorized Persons
would be extremely detrimental to the Company Group.  As a consequence, Individual hereby agrees and acknowledges that
he or she owes a duty to the Company not to disclose, and agrees that, during or after the term of his or her employment, without
the prior written consent of the Company, he or she will not communicate, publish or disclose, to any Person anywhere or use any
Confidential Information (as hereinafter defined) for any purpose other than carrying out his or her duties as contemplated in
connection with his or her employment with respect to the Company or any Company Group member.  Individual will use his or
her best efforts at all times to hold in confidence and to safeguard any Confidential Information from falling into the hands of
any unauthorized Person and, in particular, will not permit any Confidential Information to be read, duplicated, or copied.

law or as a consequence of any judicial or regulatory proceeding, based upon the opinion of legal counsel and only after Individual

by law, Individual will advise the Company in advance of any intended disclosure to comply with legal requirements. 
Individual will return to the Company all Confidential Information in Individual’s possession or under Individual’s
control when the duties of Individual no longer require Individual’s possession thereof, or whenever the Company shall so
request, and in any event will promptly return all such Confidential Information if Individual’s relationship with the Company
is terminated for any reason and will not retain any copies thereof.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein prohibits
Individual from reporting possible violations of law or regulation to any governmental agency or entity, including but not limited
to the Department of Justice, the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Congress, and any agency Inspector General, or making
other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of federal or state law or regulation. Individual does
not need the prior authorization of the Company to make any such reports or disclosures, and Individual is not required to notify
the Company that he or she has made such reports or disclosures. Individual shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under
any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that (i) is made (A) in confidence to a federal, state,
or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (B) solely for the purpose of reporting or
investigating a suspected violation of law; or (ii) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding,
if such filing is made under seal. For purposes hereof, the term “Confidential Information” shall mean
any information or data used by or belonging or relating to the Company or any other member of the Company Group or any of their
representatives that is not known generally to the industry in which any member of the Company Group is or may be engaged (other
than as a result of disclosure by Individual in violation of this Agreement), including without limitation, any and all trade secrets,
proprietary data and information relating to any member of the Company Group’s past, present, or future business and products,
price lists, customer lists, processes, procedures or standards, know-how, manuals, business strategies, records, drawings, specifications,
designs, financial information, whether or not reduced to writing, or information or data that the Company or any other member
of the Company Group advises Individual should be treated as confidential information.

3.2             
Covenant Not to Compete. In partial consideration for Individual’s access to Confidential Information and the
benefits provided by this Agreement, Individual agrees that while employed by the Company, Individual shall not, unless
Individual receives the prior written consent of the Board, own an interest in, manage, operate, join, control, lend money or render
financial or other assistance to or participate in or be connected with, as an officer, manager, employee, partner, stockholder,
consultant, or otherwise, any Person that competes with any member of the Company Group in (i) the purchasing, selling, brokering
or marketing of natural gas, natural gas liquids, oil, hydrocarbons, brine, water or any derivative product thereof, including,
without limitation, locating buyers and sellers, or negotiating purchase and sales contracts; (ii) the gathering, processing,
fractionation, stabilization, and/or transporting of natural gas, natural gas liquids, oil, hydrocarbons, brine, water, or any
derivative product thereof; or (iii) the conduct of a business enterprise that is in a business segment that contributes five
percent (5%) or more to the Company’s gross revenue or deploys five percent (5%) or more of the Company’s fixed assets. 
Ownership by Individual, as a passive investment, of less than one half of one percent (0.5%) of the outstanding securities of
any organization with securities listed on a national securities exchange or publicly traded in the over-the-counter market shall
not constitute a breach of this Section 3.2.

 

3.3             
Covenant not to Solicit Customers. In partial consideration for Individual’s access to Confidential Information
and the benefits provided by this Agreement, Individual agrees that while employed by the Company and for a period of twelve
(12) months after the termination of such employment (for any reason), Individual shall not (i) persuade or encourage any
Person that was a client or customer of any member of the Company Group at any time during the twelve (12) months prior to the
termination of Individual’s employment to cease conducting or fail to renew existing business with that member of the Company
Group, or (ii) use any confidential or proprietary information of any member of the Company Group to directly or indirectly solicit
business from, or to interrupt, disturb, or interfere with any member of the Company Group’s relationships with, any Person
that was a client or customer of any member of the Company Group at any time during the twelve (12) months prior to the termination
of Individual’s employment.

 

3.4             
Covenant not to Solicit Employees. In partial consideration for Individual’s access to Confidential Information
and the benefits provided by this Agreement, Individual agrees that while employed by the Company and for a period of twenty-four
(24) months after the termination of such employment (for any reason), Individual shall not solicit, endeavor to entice or
induce any employee of any member of the Company Group to terminate such Person’s employment or service with such member
or accept employment with anyone else; provided, however, that a general solicitation of the public for employment shall not constitute
a solicitation hereunder.

 

3.5             
Covenant Against Disparagement. In partial consideration for Individual’s access to Confidential Information
and the benefits provided by this Agreement, Individual agrees that while employed by the Company and thereafter, he or she
will not make any statements disparaging any member of the Company Group or any of their officers, directors, or employees that
could reasonably be expected to be harmful to the interests of the Company or the Company Group.  This covenant shall not
apply to any statement made in the context of any legal or regulatory proceeding or the reporting of possible violations of law
or regulation to a governmental agency or entity, as described in Section 3.1.

 

3.6             
Specific Performance. Recognizing that irreparable damage will result to the Company in the event of the breach or
threatened breach of any of the foregoing covenants and assurances by Individual contained in this Article III, and
that the Company’s remedies at law for any such breach or threatened breach will be inadequate, the Company and its successors
and assigns, in addition to such other remedies that may be available to them, shall be entitled to an injunction, including a
mandatory injunction (without the necessity of (i) proving irreparable harm, (ii) establishing that monetary damages
are inadequate, or (iii) posting any bond with respect thereto), to be issued by any court of competent jurisdiction ordering
compliance with this Agreement or enjoining and restraining Individual, and each and every Person, firm, or company acting in concert
or participation with him or her, from the continuation of such breach and, in addition thereto, he or she shall pay to the Company
all ascertainable damages, including costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees sustained by the Company or any other member of
the Company Group by reason of the breach or threatened breach of said covenants and assurances.

 

3.7             
Clawback. Individual agrees that in the event that the Company determines that Individual has breached any term of
this Article III, in addition to any other remedies at law or in equity the Company may have available to it, the Company
may in its sole discretion require that Individual repay to the Company, within five (5) business days of receipt of written
demand therefor, an amount equal to the amounts paid to or on behalf of Individual pursuant to Sections 2.1, 2.2(b) and
2.2(c).

3.8             
Miscellaneous.

 

(a)              
Individual has carefully read and considered the provisions of this Article III and, having done so, agrees
that the restrictions set forth in this Article III (including the relevant time periods, scope of activity to be restrained,
and the geographical scope) are fair and reasonable and are reasonably required for the protection of the interests of the Company
Group and their respective officers, directors, managers, employees, creditors, partners, members, and unitholders.  Individual
understands that the restrictions contained in Article III may limit his or her ability to engage in a business similar
to the business of any member of the Company Group but acknowledges that he or she will receive sufficiently high remuneration
and other benefits from the Company Group to justify such restrictions.

 

(b)              
The covenants and obligations of Individual set forth in this Article III are in addition to, and not in lieu
of, or exclusive of, any other obligations and duties of Individual to the Company Group, whether express or implied in fact or
in law.

 

(c)              
In the event that any provision of this Article III relating to the relevant time periods, scope of activity
and/or the areas of restriction hereunder shall be declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to exceed the maximum time period,
scope or areas such court deems reasonable and enforceable, the relevant time periods, scope of activity, and/or areas of restriction
deemed reasonable and enforceable by the court shall become and thereafter be the maximum time period, scope of activity, and/or
areas.

 

ARTICLE IV

Dodd-Frank Clawback

 

Individual agrees and
acknowledges that any and all compensation Individual receives pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to clawback by the Company
to the extent provided in policies adopted by the Board to comply with the requirements of Section 954 of the Dodd-Frank Wall

Term; Termination or Amendment. The term of this Agreement shall commence as of the Effective Date, and shall continue
until (i) the termination of Individual’s employment or (ii) this Agreement is terminated by the Company as provided
in this Section 5.1.  If this Agreement is not previously terminated, the Agreement shall automatically renew
on each anniversary of the Effective Date (a “Renewal Date”).  The Company shall have the right
to (A) terminate this Agreement without Individual’s consent effective as of any Renewal Date that does not occur during
the Protection Period by giving written notice to Individual at least ninety (90) days in advance of such Renewal Date, and (B)
amend this agreement without Individual’s consent, which amendment shall be evidenced in writing and be effective as of the

Except as otherwise provided in the preceding sentence, no such termination or any amendment of this Agreement shall become effective
during the term of this Agreement without Individual’s written consent, and any such purported termination or amendment of
this Agreement during a Protection Period, whether pursuant to the preceding sentence or otherwise, without Individual’s
written consent shall become effective no earlier than the expiration of the Protection Period. Upon termination of Individual’s
employment, all obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto arising in connection with such termination of employment or
otherwise accruing under this Agreement shall survive such termination.

5.3             
Effect on Other Plans. Except in the case of a Severance Plan, as defined in Section 2.3, nothing in
this Agreement shall prevent or limit Individual’s continuing or future participation in any other plan, program, policy
or practice provided by the Company or any other member of the Company Group for which Individual may qualify, nor shall anything
herein limit or otherwise affect such rights as Individual may have under any other contract or agreement with the Company or any
other member of the Company Group.  Amounts which are vested benefits or which Individual is otherwise entitled to receive
under any such other plan, policy, practice, program, contract or agreement (“Other Arrangement”) at
or subsequent to the termination of Individual’s employment shall be payable in accordance with such Other Arrangement except
as explicitly modified by this Agreement; provided, however, the time period after such termination shall not be credited as continued
employment of Individual for any purpose under any such Other Arrangement.

 

5.4             
Overpayments. Individual agrees that the Company, in its sole discretion, may require repayment by Individual of
any amount erroneously made in excess of the amounts that should have been paid under the terms of this Agreement.

 

5.5             
Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity
or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.

 

5.6             
No Breach. Individual represents and warrants to the Company that neither the execution nor delivery of this Agreement,
nor the performance of Individual’s obligations hereunder will conflict with, or result in a breach of, any term, condition,
or provision of, or constitute a default under, any obligation, contract, agreement, covenant, or instrument to which Individual
is a party or under which Individual is bound, including without limitation, the breach by Individual of a fiduciary or contractual
duty to any former employers.

 

5.7             
Entire Agreement; Manner of Amendment. Except with respect to the Severance Agreement, and subject to Section 2.3,
this Agreement cancels and supersedes all previous agreements relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, written or oral,
between the parties hereto and their respective affiliates and contains the entire understanding of the parties hereto; [provided
that, the Original Agreement shall continue to apply with respect to, and until the close of, any “Protection Period”
thereunder that is in effect as of the Effective Date (it being understood that any such “Protection Period” that is
in effect under the Original Agreement as of the Effective Date shall immediately terminate upon the commencement of a Protection
Period pursuant to this Agreement)]. 
This Agreement shall not be amended, modified or supplemented in any manner whatsoever except by mutual written agreement of the
parties hereto or in accordance with Section 5.1.  Failure of the Company to demand strict compliance with any
of the terms, covenants or conditions hereof shall not be deemed a waiver of the term, covenant or condition, nor shall any waiver
or relinquishment by the Company of any right or power hereunder at any one time or more times be deemed a waiver or relinquishment
of the right or power at any other time or times.

LLC] or as a member of the Board or Committee, such actions shall be undertaken by the Board or Committee without the participation
of Individual in the authorization thereof.

 

5.14
