Participants; (ii) determine the type or types of Awards to be granted to a Participant; (iii) determine the number of Shares to be covered by, or with respect to which payments, rights, or other matters are to be calculated in connection
with, Awards; (iv) determine the terms and conditions of any Award; (v) determine whether, to what extent, and under what circumstances Awards may be settled or exercised in cash, Shares, other securities, other Awards or other property,
or canceled, forfeited, or suspended and the method or methods by which Awards may be settled, exercised, canceled, forfeited, or suspended; (vi) interpret and administer the Plan and any instrument or agreement relating to an Award made under

stockholder and any other Person. 
 SECTION 4. Shares Available for Awards. 

(a) Shares Available. Subject to adjustment as provided below, the number of Shares granted and to be issued initially under the Plan
shall be 1,000,000 Shares, representing 8% of the outstanding fully diluted Shares as of the Effective Date (the “Exit Awards”) which shall be granted on the Effective Date. The Exit Awards will be divided into 728,261 primary Exit Awards
(the “Primary Exit Awards”) and 271,739 secondary Exit Awards (the “Secondary Exit Awards”). 62.5% of the Primary Exit Awards will be issued in the form of Stock Payments and such Awards will be fully vested and nonforfeitable as
of the date of issuance of the Awards. 37.5% of the Primary Exit Awards will be issued in the form of Restricted Stock vesting in substantially equal installments on the first, second and third anniversaries of the Effective Date. The Secondary Exit
Awards will be unvested and subject to forfeiture. The Primary Exit Awards constituting Restricted Stock will be subject to the terms and conditions of an Award Agreement substantially in the form attached to the Plan as Exhibit A. If an
Award of Restricted Stock is forfeited or cancelled or an Award otherwise lapses, expires, terminates or is canceled without the actual delivery of Shares or is settled in cash, then the Shares covered by such Award, to the extent of such
forfeiture, expiration, lapse, termination or cancellation, shall again be Shares that may be issued with respect to Awards granted under the Plan. In addition, Shares tendered or withheld by the Company to satisfy tax withholding, including tax
withholding with respect to Restricted Stock, exercise price or other payment obligations shall be available for issuance 

  
 4 

 
under future Awards if not sold to satisfy the tax withholding. The Committee will determine the number of additional Shares to be granted after the Effective Date to Employees, Consultants and
Directors as part of the Company’s long term incentive plan pursuant to the Plan. 
 (b) Sources of Shares Deliverable Under
Awards. Any Shares delivered pursuant to an Award may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued Shares or of treasury Shares. 

(c) Adjustments. In the event of a stock dividend or stock split with respect to Shares, the number of Shares with respect to which
Awards may be granted, the number of Shares subject to outstanding Awards and the grant or exercise price with respect to outstanding Awards automatically shall be proportionately adjusted, without action by the Committee; provided, however, such
automatic adjustment shall be evidenced by written addendums to the Plan and Award Agreements prepared by the Company and, with respect to Options, shall be in accordance with the Treasury Regulations promulgated pursuant to Section 409A of the
Code. Further, in the event that the Committee determines that any distribution (whether in the form of cash, Shares, other securities, or other property), recapitalization, reorganization, merger, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or exchange of
Shares or other securities of the Company, or other similar corporate transaction or event affects the Shares such that an adjustment is determined by the Committee to be appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or
potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan, then the Committee shall, in such manner as it may deem equitable, adjust any or all of (i) the number and type of Shares (or other securities or property) with respect to which
Awards may be granted, (ii) the number and type of Shares (or other securities or property) subject to outstanding Awards, and (iii) the grant or exercise price with respect to any Award or, if deemed appropriate, make provision for a cash
payment to the holder of an outstanding Award; provided that the number of Shares subject to any Award denominated in Shares shall always be a whole number. 

(d) Secondary Exit Awards. Notwithstanding anything else in this Plan or any Award Agreement, no Secondary Exit Award will be entitled
to any antidilution protection under section 4(c) or 8(d) of the Plan or otherwise pursuant to the Plan or any Award Agreement. Notwithstanding anything else in this Plan or any Award Agreement, Secondary Exit Awards will vest only and exclusively
upon the exercise of any Initial Note or UCC Warrants for Shares and only to the extent necessary to provide for a pro rata adjustment of such Exit Awards, which adjustment shall be administered by the Committee. Adjustments will be made quarterly,
within 185 days of the exercise of any Initial Note or UCC Warrant. Secondary Exit Awards may be forfeited, expired, lapsed, terminated or cancelled similar to any other award under this Plan or the applicable Award Agreement. No vesting will occur
upon any Secondary Exit Awards that have been forfeited, expired, lapsed, terminated, cancelled or sold by such Employee, Consultant or Director prior to the date of such adjustment.

Employee, Consultant or Director shall be eligible to be designated a Participant by the Committee. No individual shall have any right to be granted an Award pursuant to this Plan.

consideration or for such consideration as the Committee determines including, without limitation, such minimal cash consideration as may be required by applicable law. 

(6) Delivery of Shares or other Securities and Payment by Participant of Consideration. No Shares or other securities
shall be delivered pursuant to any Award until payment in full of any amount required to be paid pursuant to the Plan or the applicable Award Agreement (including, without limitation, any exercise price or tax withholding) is received by the
Company. Such payment may be made by such method or methods and in such form or forms, including, without limitation, cash, Shares, other securities, other Awards or other property, withholding of Shares, cashless exercise with simultaneous sale, or
any combination thereof, provided that the combined value of all cash and cash equivalents and the Fair Market Value of any such Shares or other property so tendered to the Company, as of the date of such tender, is at least equal to the full amount

 (h) Performance Based Compensation. The
Committee may establish performance goals applicable to those Awards based upon the attainment of such target levels of one or more of the Performance Criteria, over one or more periods of time, which may be of varying and overlapping durations, as
the Committee may select. The Performance Criteria shall be subject to adjustment for changes in accounting standards required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board after the goal is established, and, to the extent provided for in the Award
Agreement, shall be subject to adjustment for specified significant extraordinary items or events. In this regard, performance goals based on stock price shall be proportionately adjusted for any changes in the price due to a stock split.
Performance Criteria may be absolute, relative to one or more other companies, or relative to one or more indexes, and may be contingent upon future performance of the Company or any Subsidiary, division, unit or product line thereof. A performance
goal need not be based upon an increase or positive result under a Performance Criteria and could, for example, be based upon limiting economic losses or maintaining the status quo. Which Performance Criteria to be used with respect to any grant,
and the weight to be accorded thereto if more than one factor is used, shall be determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, at the time of grant. In determining the amount earned by a Participant, the Committee shall have the right to
reduce, eliminate, increase or otherwise modify the amount payable at a given level of performance to take into account additional factors that the Committee may deem relevant to the assessment of individual or corporate performance for the
performance period.

 SECTION 7. Amendment and Termination. 

Except to the extent prohibited by applicable law and unless otherwise expressly provided in an Award Agreement or in the Plan: 

(1) Amendments to the Plan. The Board or the Committee may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue, or terminate grants made under
the Plan after the Effective Date without the consent of any stockholder, Participant, other holder or beneficiary of an Award, or other Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Plan may not be terminated with respect to an Award that is subject
to Section 409A of the Code unless such termination would not result in the Award becoming subject to the additional tax under Section 409A of the Code. 

(2) Amendments to Awards. Subject to Paragraph (1) above and Section 3(b), the Committee may waive any conditions or rights
under, amend any terms of, or alter any Award theretofore granted, provided no change in any Award shall materially adversely affect the rights of a Participant under the Award without the consent of such Participant. 

SECTION 8. General Provisions. 

(a) No Rights to Awards. No Participant or other Person shall have any claim to be granted any Award, there is no obligation for
uniformity of treatment of Participants, or holders or beneficiaries of Awards and the terms and conditions of Awards need not be the same with respect to each recipient. 

(b) Tax Withholding. The Company or any Subsidiary is authorized to withhold from any Award, from any payment due or transfer made under
any Award or from any compensation or other amount owing to a Participant the amount (in cash, Shares, or other property) of any applicable taxes required to be withheld by the Company or Subsidiary in respect of the Award, its exercise, the lapse
of restrictions thereon, or any payment or transfer under the Award and to take such other action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company to satisfy all of its obligations for the payment of such taxes. In addition, the Committee may
provide, in an Award Agreement, that the Participant may pay in cash or direct the Company to satisfy such Participant’s tax withholding obligations through the withholding of Shares otherwise to be acquired upon the exercise or payment of such
Award, but only to the extent such withholding does not cause a charge to the Company’s financial earnings. 
 (c) No Right to
Employment or Retention. The grant of an Award shall not be construed as giving a Participant the right to be retained in the employ of the Company or any Subsidiary or under any other service contract with the Company or any Subsidiary, or to
remain on the Board. Further, the Company or a Subsidiary may at any time dismiss a Participant from employment or terminate any contractual agreement or relationship with any Consultant, free from any liability or any claim under the Plan, with or
without cause, unless otherwise expressly provided in the Plan, in any Award Agreement or any other agreement or contract between the 

  
 11 

 
Company or a Subsidiary and the affected Participant. If a Participant’s employer ceases to be a Subsidiary, such Participant shall be deemed to have terminated employment for purposes of
the Plan, unless specifically provided otherwise in the Award Agreement. 
 (d) Change of Control; Unusual Transactions or Events. In
the event of any distribution (whether in the form of cash, Shares, other securities, or other property), recapitalization, reorganization, merger, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or exchange of Shares or other securities of the Company, or other
similar corporate transaction or event or any unusual or nonrecurring transactions or events affecting the Company, any affiliate of the Company, or the financial statements of the Company or any affiliate, or of changes in applicable laws,
regulations or accounting principles, or a Change of Control and whenever action is appropriate in order to prevent the dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan or with respect to any
Award under the Plan, to facilitate such transactions or events or to give effect to such changes in laws, regulations or principles, the Committee, in its sole discretion and on such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate, either by amendment
of the terms of any outstanding Awards or by action taken prior to the occurrence of such transaction or event and either automatically or upon the Participant’s request, is hereby authorized to take any one or more of the following actions:

 (1) To provide for either (A) termination of any such Award in exchange for an amount of cash, if any, equal to the
amount that would have been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the Participant’s rights (and, for the avoidance of doubt, if as of the date of the occurrence of the transaction or event described in this Section 8(d) the
Committee determines in good faith that no amount would have been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the Participant’s rights, then such Award may be terminated by the Company without payment) or (B) the replacement
of such Award with other rights or property selected by the Committee in its sole discretion; 
 (2) To provide that such
Award be assumed by the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, or shall be substituted for by similar options, rights or awards covering the stock of the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary
thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of shares and prices; 
 (3) To make adjustments in the
number and type of shares of common Stock (or other securities or property) subject to outstanding Awards, and in the number and kind of outstanding Awards and/or in the terms and conditions of (including the grant or exercise price), and the

(5) To provide that the Award cannot vest, be exercised or become payable after such event. 

  
 12 

 Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or an Award Agreement to the contrary, an Award that is
subject to 409A of the Code may only be paid upon a Change of Control to the extent such payment would not be subject to additional taxes imposed under Section 409A of the Code. 

(e) Governing Law. The validity, construction, and effect of the Plan and any rules and regulations relating to the Plan shall be
determined in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas and applicable federal law. 
 (f) Severability. If any provision of the
Plan or any Award is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction or as to any Person or Award, or would disqualify the Plan or any Award under any law deemed applicable by the Committee, such provision shall
be construed or deemed amended to conform to the applicable laws, or if it cannot be construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the Committee, materially altering the intent of the Plan or the Award, such provision shall be
stricken as to such jurisdiction, Person or Award and the remainder of the Plan and any such Award shall remain in full force and effect. 

(g) Other Laws. The Committee may refuse to issue or transfer any Shares or other consideration under an Award, permit the exercise of
an Award and/or the satisfaction of its tax withholding obligation in the manner elected by the Participant, holder or beneficiary if, acting in its sole discretion, it determines that the issuance of transfer or such Shares or such other
consideration, the manner of exercise or satisfaction or the tax withholding obligation might violate any applicable law or regulation, including without limitation, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, or entitle the Company to recover the same under
Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, and any payment tendered to the Company by a Participant, other holder or beneficiary in connection with the exercise of such Award shall be promptly refunded or refused, as the case may be, to the relevant
Participant, holder or beneficiary. 
 (h) No Trust or Fund Created. Neither the Plan nor the Award shall create or be construed to
create a trust or separate fund of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company or any Subsidiary and a Participant or any other Person. To the extent that any Person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company or any
Subsidiary pursuant to an Award, such right shall be no greater than the right of any general unsecured creditor of the Company or any Subsidiary. 

(i) No Fractional Shares. No fractional Shares shall be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan or any Award, and the Committee shall
determine whether cash, other securities, or other property shall be paid or transferred in lieu of any fractional Shares or whether such fractional Shares or any rights thereto shall be cancelled, terminated, or otherwise eliminated. 

(j) Headings. Headings are given to the Section and subsections of the Plan solely as a convenience to facilitate reference. Such
headings shall not be deemed in any way material or relevant to the construction or interpretation of the plan or any provision thereof. 

SECTION 9. Effective Date of Plan. 

The Plan shall become effective as of the Effective Date. 

  
 13 

 SECTION 10. Term of the Plan. 

No Award shall be granted under the Plan after the 10th anniversary of the date this Plan
was first adopted. However, unless otherwise expressly provided in the Plan or in an applicable Award Agreement, any Award granted prior to such termination, and the authority of the Board or the Committee to amend, alter, adjust, suspend,
discontinue, or terminate any such Award or to waive any conditions or rights under such Award, shall extend beyond such termination date.

	1.	Grant of Restricted Stock. Goodrich Petroleum Corporation (the “Company”) hereby grants to you
[                    ] Shares of Restricted Stock (“Restricted Stock”) under the Goodrich Petroleum Corporation Management Incentive
Plan (the “Plan”) on the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference as a part of this Agreement. From and after the Grant Date, you shall have the right to receive dividends with
respect to the Common Stock underlying the Restricted Stock, to vote the Common Stock underlying the Restricted Shares, and to enjoy all other stockholder rights with respect to the Common Stock underlying the Restricted Stock; provided, that, with
respect to the payment of any dividend with respect to shares of Common Stock underlying the Restricted Shares, each such dividend shall be paid no later than the end of the calendar year in which the dividends are paid to the Company’s
stockholders of such class of shares generally or, if later, the fifteenth day of the third month following the date dividends are paid to stockholders of such class of shares. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the
Plan, the Plan shall control. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Plan, unless the context requires otherwise. 

 

	2.	Regular Vesting. The shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder shall be subject to forfeiture as described in Paragraph 3 until the Restricted Stock vests as provide in Paragraph 3 or, as the case may
be, on the anniversaries of the above Grant Date as follows: 

  

							
	 	 	 Grant Date
	  	 Cumulative

Vested Percentage
	  	 
		 	1st Anniversary	  	33 1⁄3%	  	
		 	2nd Anniversary	  	66 2⁄3%	  	
		 	3rd Anniversary	  	100%	  	

 Further, even after such Restricted Shares become vested, the shares of Common Stock may not be sold or
otherwise disposed of in any manner that would constitute a violation of any applicable federal or state securities or other applicable law or Company policies as determined by Company on advice of counsel chosen by the Company in its sole
discretion. Vesting with respect to a fractional share shall be rounded up to the next whole share. 

  
 A-2 

	3.	Events Occurring Prior to Regular Vesting. 

  

	 	(a)	Death or Disability. If, prior to becoming fully vested in the shares of Restricted Stock hereby granted, you cease to be an employee of the Company as a result of your death or a disability that entitles
you to benefits under the Company’s long-term disability plan, the shares of Restricted Stock then held by you automatically will become fully vested upon such termination. 

 

	 	(b)	Other Terminations. If you terminate from the Company for any reason other than as provided in Paragraph 3(a), all unvested shares of Restricted Stock then held by you automatically shall be forfeited
without payment upon such termination. 

  

	 	(c)	Change of Control. All outstanding shares of Restricted Stock held by you at the time of a Change of Control automatically shall become fully vested upon the Change of Control. 

For purposes of this Agreement, your employment with a parent or Subsidiary of the Company shall be deemed to be employment with the Company.
Any Restricted Stock forfeited under this Paragraph 3 shall automatically revert to the Company and become canceled. Any certificate(s) representing Restricted Stock that include forfeited shares shall only represent that number of shares of
Restricted Stock that have not been forfeited hereunder. Upon the Company’s request, you agree for yourself and any other holder(s) to tender to the Company any certificate(s) representing shares of Restricted Stock that include forfeited
shares for a new certificate representing only the unforfeited number of shares of Restricted Stock. 
  

	4.	Stock Certificates; Escrow of Restricted Stock. The Company shall evidence the Restricted Stock in the manner that it deems appropriate. The Company may issue in your name a certificate or certificates
representing the Restricted Stock and retain that certificate or those certificates until the restrictions on such shares of Restricted Stock expire as contemplated in Paragraphs 2 or 3 of this Agreement or the Restricted Stock is forfeited as
described in Paragraph 3 of this Agreement. If the Company certificates the Restricted Stock, you shall execute one or more stock powers in blank for those certificates and deliver those stock powers to the Company. The Company shall hold the
Restricted Stock and the related stock powers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, if applicable, until such time as (a) a certificate or certificates for the shares of Restricted Stock are delivered to you, (b) the Restricted Stock is
otherwise transferred to you free of restrictions, or (c) the Restricted Stock is canceled and forfeited pursuant to this Agreement. The Company may issue to you a receipt evidencing the certificates held by it which are registered in your
name. In addition to any other legends that may be required by applicable law or otherwise, each such stock certificate shall bear the legends substantially as follows: 

THE TRANSFERABILITY OF THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE SHARES OF STOCK REPRESENTED HEREBY ARE SUBJECT TO THE RESTRICTIONS, TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(INCLUDING FORFEITURE AND 

  
 A-3 

 
RESTRICTIONS AGAINST TRANSFER) CONTAINED IN THE RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT ENTERED INTO BETWEEN THE REGISTERED OWNER OF SUCH SHARES AND GOODRICH PETROLEUM CORPORATION. COPIES OF THE
RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT ARE ON FILE IN THE OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY OF GOODRICH PETROLEUM CORPORATION, LOCATED AT 801 LOUISIANA ST, SUITE 700, HOUSTON, TEXAS 77002. 

The legend shall not be removed from the certificate evidencing the Restricted Stock until such time as the restrictions thereon have lapsed.

  

	5.	Limitations Upon Transfer. The Restricted Stock granted under this Agreement shall belong to you alone and may not be transferred, assigned, pledged, or hypothecated by you in any way (whether by operation
of law or otherwise), other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution and shall not be subject to execution, attachment, or similar process. Upon any attempt by you to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate, or otherwise dispose of such
rights contrary to the provisions in this Agreement or the Plan, or upon the levy of any attachment or similar process upon such rights, such rights shall immediately become null and void. 

 

	6.	Compliance with Securities Laws. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the issuance of Common Stock (including the Restricted Shares) will be subject to compliance with all
applicable requirements of federal, state, or foreign law with respect to such securities and with the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Common Stock may then be listed. No Common Stock will be issued hereunder if
such issuance would constitute a violation of any applicable federal, state, or foreign securities laws or other law or regulations or the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Common Stock may then be listed. The
Company may require you, as a condition of receiving the Common Stock, to give written assurances in substance and form satisfactory to the Company and its counsel to the effect that you are acquiring the Common Stock underlying the Restricted
Shares for your own account for investment and not with any present intention of selling or otherwise distributing the same, and to such other effects as the Company deems necessary or appropriate to comply with federal and any applicable state and
foreign securities laws. The Company intends to register the shares under the Plan on Form S-8 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. 

  

	7.	Withholding of Tax. To the extent that the grant, vesting or settlement of Restricted Stock results in the receipt of compensation by you with respect to which the Company or an affiliate has a tax
withholding obligation pursuant to applicable law, you will make an election provided to you by the Company on whether you desire the Company to withhold Shares to pay the taxes, sell shares on behalf of you through a registered broker-dealer to
satisfy the tax withholding obligation, deliver to the Company or the affiliate such amount of money as the Company or the affiliate may require to meet its withholding obligations under such applicable law, or make such other arrangements with the
Company to satisfy the tax withholding requirement.

	8.	Consent to Electronic Delivery; Electronic Signature. In lieu of receiving documents in paper format, you agree, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to accept electronic delivery of any
documents that the Company may be required to deliver (including, without limitation, prospectuses, prospectus supplements, grant or award notifications and agreements, account statements, annual and quarterly reports, and all other forms of
communications) in connection with this and any other award made or offered by the Company. Electronic delivery may be via an electronic mail system of the Company or by reference to a location on a Company intranet to which you have access. You
hereby consent to any and all procedures the Company has established or may establish for an electronic signature system for delivery and acceptance of any such documents that the Company may be required to deliver, and the Company agrees that your
electronic signature is the same as, and shall have the same force and effect as, your manual signature. 

  

	9.	Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successor or successors of the Company and upon any person lawfully claiming under you. 

 

	10.	Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the parties with regard to the subject matter hereof, and contains all the covenants, promises, representations, warranties and
agreements between the parties with respect to the Restricted Stock granted hereby. Without limiting the scope of the preceding sentence, all prior understandings and agreements, if any, among the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof
are hereby null and void and of no further force and effect. Any modification of this Agreement shall be effective only if it is in writing and signed by both you and an authorized officer of the Company. 

 

	11.	Independent Legal and Tax Advice. You have been advised, and you hereby acknowledge that you have been advised, to obtain independent legal and tax advice regarding this grant of Restricted Stock and the
disposition of such shares, including, without limitation, the election available under Section 83(b) of the Code. The Board and the Company do not guarantee the Common Stock from loss or depreciation. 

 

	12.	Governing Law. This grant shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to conflicts of laws principles thereof.

$230,000,000). 

 Further, even after such Restricted Shares become vested, the shares of Common Stock may not be sold or
otherwise disposed of in any manner that would constitute a violation of any applicable federal or state securities or other applicable law or Company policies as determined by Company on advice of counsel chosen by the Company in its sole
discretion. Vesting with respect to a fractional share shall be rounded up to the next whole share.

Restricted Stock that include forfeited shares for a new certificate representing only the unforfeited number of shares of Restricted Stock.
