Introductory. Continental Resources, Inc., an Oklahoma corporation (the “Company”), proposes to
issue and sell to the several Initial Purchasers named in Schedule A (the “Initial Purchasers”), acting severally and not jointly, the respective amounts set forth in such Schedule A of $400,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the
Company’s 7  1/8% Senior Notes due 2021 (the
“Notes”). Banc of America Securities LLC, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and RBS Securities Inc. have agreed to act as the representatives of the several Initial Purchasers (the “Representatives”) in connection with the offering and
sale of the Notes. 
 The Notes will be issued pursuant to an indenture, to be dated as of September 16, 2010 (the
“Indenture”), among the Company, the Initial Guarantor (as defined below) and Wilmington Trust FSB, as trustee (the “Trustee”). Notes will be issued only in book-entry form in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of The
Depository Trust Company (the “Depositary”) pursuant to a letter of representations, to be dated on or before the Closing Date (as defined in Section 2 hereof) (the “DTC Agreement”), between the Company and the Depositary.

 The holders of the Notes will be entitled to the benefits of a registration rights agreement, to be dated as of the Closing
Date (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), among the Company, the Initial Guarantor and the Initial Purchasers, pursuant to which the Company and the Initial Guarantor may be required to file with the Commission (as defined below), under
the circumstances set forth therein, (i) a registration statement under the Securities Act (as defined below) relating to another series of debt securities of the Company with terms substantially identical to the Notes (the “Exchange
Notes”) and the Guarantors’ (as defined below) Exchange Guarantees (the “Exchange Guarantees”) to be offered in exchange for the Notes and the Guarantees (as defined below) (the “Exchange Offer”) and (ii) a shelf
registration statement pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act relating to the resale by certain holders of the Notes, and in each case, to use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statements to be declared effective.
All references herein to the Exchange Notes and the Exchange Offer are only applicable if the Company and the Initial Guarantor are in fact required to consummate the Exchange Offer pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement.

 The payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes and the Exchange
Notes when and as the same becomes due and payable, will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis, jointly and severally by (i) Banner Pipeline Company, L.L.C., the Company’s sole direct or indirect subsidiary
(the “Initial Guarantor”) and (ii) any subsidiary of the Company formed or acquired after the Closing Date that executes a supplement to the Indenture guaranteeing the Notes in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, and their
respective successors and assigns (together with the Initial Guarantor, the “Guarantors”), pursuant to their guarantees (the “Guarantees”). The Notes and the Guarantees related thereto are herein collectively referred to as the
“Securities”; and the Exchange Notes and the Guarantees related thereto are herein collectively referred to as the “Exchange Securities.” 

Each of the Company and the Initial Guarantor understands that the Initial Purchasers propose to make an offering of the Securities on
the terms and in the manner set forth herein and in the Pricing Disclosure Package (as defined below) and agrees that the Initial Purchasers may resell, subject to the conditions set forth herein, all or a portion of the Securities to purchasers
(the “Subsequent Purchasers”) on the terms set forth in the Pricing Disclosure Package (the first time when sales of the Securities are made is referred to as the “Time of Sale”). The Securities are to be offered and sold to or
through the Initial Purchasers without being registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933 (as amended, the “Securities Act,” which term, as used herein, includes the
rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder), in reliance upon exemptions therefrom. Pursuant to the terms of the Securities and the Indenture, investors who acquire Securities shall be deemed to have agreed that Securities may
only be resold or otherwise transferred, after the date hereof, if such Securities are registered for sale under the Securities Act or if an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act is available (including the exemptions
afforded by Rule 144A under the Securities Act (“Rule 144A”) or Regulation S under the Securities Act (“Regulation S”)). 

The Company has prepared and delivered to each Initial Purchaser copies of a Preliminary Offering Memorandum, dated September 13,
2010 (the “Preliminary Offering Memorandum”), and has prepared and delivered to each Initial Purchaser copies of a Pricing Supplement, dated September 13, 2010 in the form attached hereto as Annex II (the “Pricing
Supplement”), describing the terms of the Securities, each for use by such Initial Purchaser in connection with its solicitation of offers to purchase the Securities. The Preliminary Offering Memorandum and the Pricing Supplement are herein
referred to as the “Pricing Disclosure Package.” Promptly after this Agreement is executed and delivered, the Company will prepare and deliver to each Initial Purchaser a final offering memorandum dated the date hereof (the “Final
Offering Memorandum”). 
 All references herein to the terms “Pricing Disclosure Package” and “Final
Offering Memorandum” shall be deemed to mean and include all information filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (as amended, the “Exchange Act,” which term, as used herein, includes the rules and regulations of the Commission
promulgated thereunder) prior to the Time of Sale and incorporated by reference in the Pricing Disclosure Package (including the Preliminary Offering Memorandum) or the Final Offering Memorandum (as the case may be), and all references herein to the
terms “amend,” “amendment” or “supplement” with respect to the Final Offering Memorandum shall be deemed to mean and include all information filed under the Exchange Act after the Time of Sale and incorporated by
reference in the Final Offering Memorandum.

Adverse Change. Since the date of the most recent financial statements of the Company included or incorporated by reference in the Offering Memorandum (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto), except in each case as otherwise disclosed
in the Offering Memorandum (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto): (i) there has not been any change in the capital stock, or material change in the long-term debt, of the Company or the Initial Guarantor, or any dividend or
distribution of any kind declared, set aside for payment, paid or made by the Company on any class of capital stock, or any material adverse change, or any development involving a prospective material adverse change, in or affecting the business,
properties, management, financial position, shareholders’ equity, results of operations or prospects of the Company and the Initial Guarantor, taken as a whole (any such change is called a “Material Adverse Change”); (ii) neither
the Company nor the Initial Guarantor has entered into any transaction or agreement that is material to the Company and the Initial Guarantor, taken as a whole, or incurred any liability or obligation, direct or contingent, that is material to the
Company and the Initial Guarantor, taken as a whole; and (iii) neither the Company nor the Initial Guarantor has sustained any material loss or interference with its business from fire, explosion, flood or other calamity, whether or not covered

as used in this Agreement includes the related notes thereto) and supporting schedules filed with the Commission and included in the Offering Memorandum are independent public or certified public accountants within the meaning of Regulation S-X
under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, and any non-audit services provided by Grant Thornton LLP to the Company or the Initial Guarantor have been approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company.

with that of the Company’s audited financial statements. The unaudited financial data set forth in the Offering Memorandum under the captions “Summary—Summary Historical Consolidated Financial Data” and “Selected Historical
Consolidated Financial Data” fairly present the information set forth therein on a basis consistent with that of the Company’s unaudited financial statements incorporated by reference in the Offering Memorandum. The pro forma financial

conduct of its businesses requires such qualification, and has all power and authority necessary to own or hold its properties and to conduct the businesses in which it is engaged, except where the failure to be so qualified or have such power or
authority would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the business, properties, management, financial condition, shareholders’ equity, results of operations, cash flows or prospects of the Company and the
Initial Guarantor taken as a whole or on the transactions contemplated hereby (a “Material Adverse Effect”). The Company does not own or control, directly or indirectly, any corporation, association or other entity other than the Initial

the Securities or the Exchange Securities, and consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and by the Offering Memorandum (i) will not result in any violation of the provisions of the charter or bylaws or similar
organizational documents of the Company or the Initial Guarantor, (ii) will not conflict with or constitute a breach of, or Default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of
the Company or the Initial Guarantor pursuant to any Existing Instrument and (iii) will not result in any violation of any law, administrative regulation or administrative or court decree applicable to the Company or the Initial Guarantor,
except, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, for such conflicts, breaches, Defaults, liens, charges, encumbrances or violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect. Assuming the
accuracy of the representations, warranties and covenants of the Initial Purchasers set forth herein, no consent, approval, authorization or other order of, or registration or filing with, any court or other governmental or regulatory authority or
agency, is required for the Company’s and the Initial Guarantor’s execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the DTC Agreement or the Indenture, or the issuance and delivery of the Securities
or the Exchange Securities, or consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and by the Offering Memorandum, except such as may be required by the Securities Act or the securities laws of the several states of the United States

Guarantor to perform its obligations under this Agreement; to the knowledge of the Company, no such investigations, actions, suits or proceedings are threatened or contemplated by any governmental or regulatory authority or others; and

Company will furnish to the Representatives a copy of such written communication for review and will not make, prepare, use, authorize, approve or distribute any such written communication to which the Representatives reasonably object. 

(b) Amendments and Supplements to the Final Offering Memorandum and Other Securities Act Matters. If, prior to the later of
(x) the Closing Date and (y) the completion of the placement of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers with the Subsequent Purchasers, any event shall occur or condition exist as a result of which it is necessary to amend or supplement
the Final Offering Memorandum, as then amended or supplemented, in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances when the Final Offering Memorandum is delivered to a Subsequent Purchaser, not misleading, or if in the
judgment of the Representatives or counsel for the Initial Purchasers it is otherwise necessary to amend or supplement the Final Offering Memorandum to comply with law, the Company agrees to promptly prepare (subject to Section 3 hereof), and
furnish at its own expense to the Initial Purchasers, amendments or supplements to the Final Offering Memorandum so that the statements in the Final Offering Memorandum as so amended or supplemented will not, in the light of the circumstances at the

(c) Copies of the Offering Memorandum. The Company agrees to furnish the Initial Purchasers, without charge, as many copies of the
Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum and any amendments and supplements thereto as they shall reasonably request.

cooperate with the Representatives and counsel for the Initial Purchasers to qualify or register (or to obtain exemptions from qualifying or registering) all or any part of the Securities for offer and sale under the securities laws of the several
states of the United States, the provinces of Canada or any other jurisdictions designated by the Representatives, shall comply with such laws and shall continue such qualifications, registrations and exemptions in effect so long as required for the
distribution of the Securities. None of the Company or Initial Guarantor shall be required to qualify as a foreign corporation or to take any action that would subject it to general service of process in any such jurisdiction where it is not
presently qualified or where it would be subject to taxation as a foreign corporation. The Company will advise the Representatives promptly of the suspension of the qualification or registration of (or any such exemption relating to) the Securities
for offering, sale or trading in any jurisdiction or any initiation or threat of any proceeding for any such purpose, and in the event of the issuance of any order suspending such qualification, registration or exemption, each of the Company and the
Initial Guarantor shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal thereof at the earliest possible moment. 

(e) Use of Proceeds. The Company shall apply the net proceeds from the sale of the Securities sold by it in the manner described

Subsequent Purchasers, the Company shall file, on a timely basis, with the Commission and the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) all reports and documents required to be filed under Section 13 or 15 of the Exchange Act.
Additionally, at any time when the Company is not subject to Section 13 or 15 of the Exchange Act, for the benefit of holders and beneficial owners from time to time of the Securities, the Company shall furnish, at its expense, upon request, to
holders and beneficial owners of Securities and prospective purchasers of Securities information (“Additional Issuer Information”) satisfying the requirements of Rule 144A(d). 

(h) Agreement Not To Offer or Sell Additional Securities. During the period of 45 days following the date hereof, the Company will
not, without the prior written consent of Banc of America Securities LLC (which consent may be withheld at the sole discretion of Banc of America Securities LLC), directly or indirectly, sell, offer, contract or grant any option to sell, pledge,
transfer or establish an open “put equivalent position” within the meaning of Rule 16a-1 under the Exchange Act, or otherwise dispose of or transfer, or announce the offering of, or file any registration statement under the Securities Act
in respect of, any debt securities of the Company or securities exchangeable for or convertible into debt securities of the Company (other than as contemplated by this Agreement and to register the Exchange Securities). For the avoidance of doubt,
this paragraph (h) shall not affect the Company’s ability to borrow amounts under its revolving credit facility or to increase the borrowing base thereunder. 
  

 14 

 (i) Future Reports to the Initial Purchasers. At any time when the Company is not
subject to Section 13 or 15 of the Exchange Act and any Securities or Exchange Securities remain outstanding, the Company will furnish to the Representatives and, upon request, to each of the other Initial Purchasers: (i) as soon as
practicable after the end of each fiscal year, copies of the Annual Report of the Company containing the balance sheet of the Company as of the close of such fiscal year and statements of income, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the year

specified by the Commission’s rules and regulations under Section 13 or 15 of the Exchange Act. 
 (j) No
Integration. The Company agrees that it will not and will cause its Affiliates not to make any offer or sale of securities of the Company of any class if, as a result of the doctrine of “integration” referred to in Rule 502 under the
Securities Act, such offer or sale would render invalid (for the purpose of (i) the sale of the Securities by the Company to the Initial Purchasers, (ii) the resale of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers to Subsequent Purchasers or
(iii) the resale of the Securities by such Subsequent Purchasers to others) the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided by Section 4(2) thereof or by Rule 144A or by Regulation S thereunder or otherwise.

 (k) No Restricted Resales. During the period of one year after the Closing Date, the Company will not, and will not
permit any of its affiliates (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act) to resell any of the Notes which constitute “restricted securities” under Rule 144 that have been reacquired by any of them.

Indemnification. 
 (a) Indemnification of the Initial Purchasers. Each of the Company and the Initial Guarantor,
jointly and severally, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser, its directors, officers, employees and affiliates and each person, if any, who controls any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of the Securities Act and the
Exchange Act against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense, as incurred, to which such Initial Purchaser, director, officer, employee or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or
state statutory law or regulation, or at common law or otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company or as otherwise permitted by Section 8(d) hereof), insofar as
such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arises out of or is based: (i) upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Preliminary Offering
Memorandum, the Pricing Supplement, any Company Additional Written Information or the Final Offering Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the
statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; (ii) in whole or in part upon any inaccuracy in the representations and warranties of the Company contained herein; (iii) in whole or in part
upon any failure of the Company to perform its obligations hereunder or under law; or (iv) any act or failure to act or any alleged act or failure to act by any Initial Purchaser in connection with, or relating in any manner to, the offering
contemplated hereby, and which is included as part of or referred to in any loss, claim, damage, liability or action arising out of or based upon any matter covered by clause (i) above, provided that the Company shall not be liable under
this clause (iv) to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction shall have determined by a final judgment that such loss, claim, damage, liability or action resulted directly from any such acts or failures to act undertaken or omitted to
be taken by such Initial Purchaser through its gross negligence or willful misconduct; and to reimburse each Initial Purchaser and each such director, officer, employee or controlling person for any and all expenses (including the fees and
disbursements of counsel chosen by Banc of America Securities LLC) as such expenses are reasonably incurred by such Initial Purchaser or such director, officer, employee or controlling person in connection with investigating, defending, settling,
compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity agreement shall not apply to any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense to the extent, but only to
the extent, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Representatives expressly for
use in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Supplement, any Company Additional Written Information or the Final Offering Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto). The indemnity agreement set forth in this Section 8(a)
shall be in addition to any liabilities that the Company may otherwise have. 
  

 19 

 (b) Indemnification of the Company and the Initial Guarantor. Each Initial Purchaser
agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Initial Guarantor, each of their respective directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company or the Initial Guarantor within the meaning of
the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense, as incurred, to which the Company, the Initial Guarantor or any such director or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act, the
Exchange Act, or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, or at common law or otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of such Initial Purchaser or as otherwise
permitted by Section 8(d) hereof), insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material
fact contained in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Supplement, any Company Additional Written Information or the Final Offering Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a
material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
or omission or alleged omission was made in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Supplement, any Company Additional Written Information or the Final Offering Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto), in reliance upon and in
conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Representatives on behalf of such Initial Purchaser expressly for use therein; and to reimburse the Company, the Initial Guarantor and each such director or controlling person for
any and all expenses (including the fees and disbursements of counsel) as such expenses are reasonably incurred by the Company, the Initial Guarantor or such director or controlling person in connection with investigating, defending, settling,
compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action. Each of the Company and the Initial Guarantor hereby acknowledges that the only information that the Initial Purchasers through the Representatives have furnished to
the Company expressly for use in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Supplement, any Company Additional Written Information or the Final Offering Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto) are the statements set forth in the
second and third sentences of the sixth paragraph and the eleventh paragraph under the caption “Plan of Distribution” in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum and the Final Offering Memorandum. The indemnity agreement set forth in this
Section 8(b) shall be in addition to any liabilities that each Initial Purchaser may otherwise have. 
  

 20 

 (c) Notifications and Other Indemnification Procedures. Promptly after receipt by an
indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party
in writing of the commencement thereof, but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party for contribution or otherwise than under the indemnity agreement contained
in this Section 8 or to the extent it is not prejudiced as a proximate result of such failure. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and such indemnified party seeks or intends to seek indemnity from an indemnifying
party, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in and, to the extent that it shall elect, jointly with all other indemnifying parties similarly notified, by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving
the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party
and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that a conflict may arise between the positions of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in conducting the defense of any such action or that there may
be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assume such
legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of such indemnifying party’s election so to
assume the defense of such action and approval by the indemnified party of counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 8 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such
indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the proviso to the next preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying
party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel (together with local counsel)), representing the indemnified parties who are parties to such action) or (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel
satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action, in each of which cases the fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party.

 (d) Settlements. The indemnifying party under this Section 8 shall not be liable for any settlement of any
proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party against any loss, claim, damage, liability or
expense by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as
contemplated by this Section 8, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such
indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior
written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement, compromise or consent to the entry of judgment in any pending or threatened action, suit or proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and
indemnity was or could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter
of such action, suit or proceeding and (ii) does not include any statements as to or any findings of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party. 

 

 21 

 SECTION 9. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Section 8 hereof
is for any reason held to be unavailable to or otherwise insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the
aggregate amount paid or payable by such indemnified party, as incurred, as a result of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received
by the Company and the Initial Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, from the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not
permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company and the Initial Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Initial
Purchasers, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions or inaccuracies in the representations and warranties herein which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Initial Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, in connection with the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement shall be
deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Company, and the total discount received by the Initial Purchasers
bear to the aggregate initial offering price of the Securities. The relative fault of the Company and the Initial Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact or any such inaccurate or alleged inaccurate representation or warranty relates to information supplied by the Company
and the Initial Guarantor, on the one hand, or the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission or inaccuracy.

 The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above
shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 8 hereof, any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim. The provisions set
forth in Section 8 hereof with respect to notice of commencement of any action shall apply if a claim for contribution is to be made under this Section 9; provided, however, that no additional notice shall be required with
respect to any action for which notice has been given under Section 8 hereof for purposes of indemnification. 
 The
Company, the Initial Guarantor and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 9 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Initial Purchasers were treated as one entity
for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 9. 

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9, no Initial Purchaser shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the
discount received by such Initial Purchaser in connection with the Securities distributed by it. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11 of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from
any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Initial Purchasers’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 9 are several, and not joint, in proportion to their respective commitments as set forth
opposite their names in Schedule A. For purposes of this Section 9, each director, officer and employee of an Initial Purchaser and each person, if any, who controls an Initial Purchaser within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange
Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such Initial Purchaser, and each director of the Company or the Initial Guarantor, and each person, if any, who controls the Company or the Initial Guarantor with the meaning of the Securities Act
and the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company and the Initial Guarantor.

 SECTION 10. Termination of this Agreement. Prior to the Closing Date, this Agreement
may be terminated by the Representatives by notice given to the Company if at any time: (i) trading or quotation in any of the Company’s securities shall have been suspended or limited by the Commission or by the NYSE; (ii) trading in
securities generally on either the Nasdaq Stock Market or the NYSE shall have been suspended or limited, or minimum or maximum prices shall have been generally established on any of such quotation system or stock exchange by the Commission or FINRA;
(iii) a general banking moratorium shall have been declared by any federal, New York or Oklahoma authorities; (iv) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of national or international hostilities or any crisis or calamity, or
any change in the United States or international financial markets, or any substantial change or development involving a prospective substantial change in United States’ or international political, financial or economic conditions, as in the
judgment of the Representatives is material and adverse and makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering sale or delivery of the Securities in the manner and on the terms described in the Pricing Disclosure Package or to
enforce contracts for the sale of securities; and (v) the representation in Section 1(d) is incorrect in any respect. Any termination pursuant to this Section 10 shall be without liability on the part of (a) the Company or the
Initial Guarantor to any Initial Purchaser, except that the Company and the Initial Guarantor shall be obligated to reimburse the expenses of the Initial Purchasers pursuant to Sections 4 and 6 hereof, (b) any Initial Purchaser to the
Company, or (c) any party hereto to any other party except that the provisions of Sections 8 and 9 hereof shall at all times be effective and shall survive such termination. 

SECTION 11. Representations and Indemnities to Survive Delivery. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations,
warranties and other statements of the Company, the Initial Guarantor, their respective officers and the several Initial Purchasers set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation
made by or on behalf of any Initial Purchaser, the Company, the Initial Guarantor or any of their partners, officers or directors or any controlling person, as the case may be, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Securities sold

THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS
MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED IN SUCH STATE WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES THEREOF. 
 SECTION 17. Default of One
or More of the Several Initial Purchasers. If any one or more of the several Initial Purchasers shall fail or refuse to purchase Securities that it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on the Closing Date, and the aggregate principal amount
of Securities which such defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed or refused to purchase does not exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be purchased on such date, the other Initial Purchasers
shall be obligated, severally, in the proportions that the principal amount of Securities set forth opposite their respective names on Schedule A bears to the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth opposite the names of all such
non-defaulting Initial Purchasers, or in such other proportions as may be specified by the Initial Purchasers with the consent of the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers, to purchase the Securities which such defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial
Purchasers agreed but failed or refused to purchase on the Closing Date. If any one or more of the Initial Purchasers shall fail or refuse to purchase Securities and the aggregate principal amount of Securities with respect to which such default
occurs exceeds 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be purchased on the Closing Date, and arrangements satisfactory to the Initial Purchasers and the Company for the purchase of such Securities are not made within 48 hours after
such default, this Agreement shall terminate without liability of any party to any other party except that the provisions of Sections 4, 6, 8 and 9 hereof shall at all times be effective and shall survive such termination. In any such case
either the Initial Purchasers or the Company shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date, as the case may be, but in no event for longer than seven days in order that the required changes, if any, to the Final Offering Memorandum or any other
documents or arrangements may be effected. 
 As used in this Agreement, the term “Initial Purchaser” shall be deemed
to include any person substituted for a defaulting Initial Purchaser under this Section 17. Any action taken under this Section 17 shall not relieve any defaulting Initial Purchaser from liability in respect of any default of such Initial
Purchaser under this Agreement. 
 SECTION 18. No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. Each of the Company and the
Initial Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the purchase and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement, including the determination of the offering price of the Securities and any related discounts and commissions, is an
arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company and the Initial Guarantor, on the one hand, and the several Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, and the Company and the Initial Guarantor are capable of evaluating and understanding and
understand and accept the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) in connection with each transaction contemplated hereby and the process leading to such transaction each Initial Purchaser is and has
been acting solely as a principal and is not the agent or fiduciary of the Company, Initial Guarantor or their respective affiliates, stockholders, creditors or employees or any other party; (iii) no Initial Purchaser has assumed or will assume
an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company or the Initial Guarantor with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Initial Purchaser has advised or is
currently advising the Company or the Initial Guarantor on other matters) or any other obligation to the Company and the Initial Guarantor except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement; (iv) the several Initial Purchasers and
their respective affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Company and the Initial Guarantor and that the several Initial Purchasers have no obligation to disclose any of such
interests by virtue of any fiduciary or advisory relationship; and (v) the Initial Purchasers have not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the offering contemplated hereby and the Company and the Initial
Guarantor have consulted their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent they deemed appropriate. 
  

 25 

 This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral)
between the Company, the Initial Guarantor and the several Initial Purchasers, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof. The Company and the Initial Guarantor hereby waive and release, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any
claims that the Company and the Initial Guarantor may have against the several Initial Purchasers with respect to any breach or alleged breach of fiduciary duty. 

SECTION 19. General Provisions. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the parties to this Agreement and supersedes
all prior written or oral and all contemporaneous oral agreements, understandings and negotiations with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each one of which shall be an original, with
the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement may not be amended or modified unless in writing by all of the parties hereto, and no condition herein (express or implied) may be waived unless
waived in writing by each party whom the condition is meant to benefit. The section headings herein are for the convenience of the parties only and shall not affect the construction or interpretation of this Agreement.

 If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding of our agreement, kindly sign and

in no event later than 120 days after the receipt of such written request, the Registrable Securities specified in the request, together with any Registrable Securities of any Holder who requests in writing to join such Registration within fifteen
(15) Business Days after the Company’s delivery of written notice, to be Registered on that form and qualified for sale and distribution to the public in such jurisdictions as the Initiating Holders may reasonably request. Notwithstanding
anything contrary contained herein, the Company shall not be obligated to take any action to Register or qualify Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2.1(b) if, within the six (6) month period preceding the date of such request,
the Company has either (x) already effected a Registration under any of the provisions of this Section 2.1(b) or (ii) already effected a Registration (other than a registration of securities in a transaction under Rule 145 of the
Securities Act or with respect to an employee benefit plan) in which the Holders had the opportunity to participate pursuant to Section 2.2. 

(c) Right of Deferral. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.1: 

(1) The Company shall not be obligated to Register or qualify Registrable Securities for an Underwritten Offering pursuant to any of the
provisions of Section 2.1(a) if, (x) within the six (6) month period preceding the date of such request, the Company has either (i) already effected a Registration for an Underwritten Offering under any of the provisions of
Section 2.1(a) or (ii) already effected a Registration (other than a registration of securities in a transaction under Rule 145 of the Securities Act or with respect to an employee benefit plan) in which the Holders had the opportunity to
participate pursuant to Section 2.2, or (y) within the six (6) month period preceding the date of such request, the Company has already effected a Registration other than an Underwritten Offering under any of the provisions of
Section 2.1(a). 
  

 4 

 (2) The Company shall not be obligated to Register or qualify Registrable Securities
pursuant to Section 2.1(a) or Section 2.1(b) if the Company shall furnish to the Holders a certificate signed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company stating that, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company,
it would be materially detrimental to the Company and its shareholders for a Registration Statement to be filed in the near future. Following delivery of such certificate, the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period not to
exceed ninety (90) days from the receipt of any request duly submitted by Holders under Section 2.1(a) or Section 2.1(b), as the case may be, or to Register Registrable Securities; provided, however, that the Company shall not utilize
this right more than once in any twelve (12) month period. 
 (d) Underwritten Offerings. If, in connection with a
request to Register Registrable Securities under the provisions of Section 2.1(a) or Section 2.1(b), the Initiating Holders seek to distribute such Registrable Securities through an Underwritten Offering, they shall so advise the Company
as a part of the request, and the Company shall include such information in the written notice to the other Holders described in Section 2.1(a) or Section 2.1(b), as the case may be. In such event, the right of any Holder to include its
Registrable Securities in such Registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such Underwritten Offering and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the Underwritten Offering to the extent provided
herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such Underwritten Offering shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such Underwritten Offering by the Company
(which underwriter or underwriters shall be reasonably acceptable to the Initiating Holders representing a majority in voting power of the Registrable Securities held by the Initiating Holders). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement,
if the managing underwriter advises the Company that marketing factors (including the aggregate number of securities requested to be Registered, the general condition of the market, and the status of the Persons proposing to sell securities pursuant
to the Registration) require a limitation of the number of Equity Securities to be underwritten, the underwriters may exclude such number of Registrable Securities from the Underwritten Offering as required (i) after excluding any other Equity
Securities from the Underwritten Offering (including, without limitation, any Equity Securities which the Company may seek to include in the Underwritten Offering for its own account) and (ii) so long as at least twenty percent (20%) in
voting power of any Registrable Securities requested by the Holders to be included in such Underwritten Offering and Registration shall be included. If a limitation of the number of Registrable Securities is required pursuant to this
Section 2.1(d), the number of Registrable Securities that may be included in the Underwritten Offering by selling Holders shall be allocated among such Holders, in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective amounts of Registrable
Securities which the Holders would otherwise be entitled to include in the Registration. If any Holder disapproves of the terms of any Underwritten Offering, the Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the
underwriters delivered at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement. Any Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from the Registration. 

 

 5 

 2.2 Piggyback Registrations. 

(a) Registration of the Company’s Securities. Subject to Section 2.2(c), if the Company proposes to Register for its own
account any of its Equity Securities in connection with the public offering of such securities, the Company shall promptly give each Holder written notice of such Registration and, upon the written request of any Holder given within ten
(10) days after delivery of such notice, the Company shall use its best efforts to include in such Registration any Registrable Securities thereby requested by such Holder. If a Holder decides not to include all or any of its Registrable
Securities in such Registration by the Company, such Holder shall nevertheless continue to have the right to include any Registrable Securities in any subsequent Registration Statement or Registration Statements as may be filed by the Company with
respect to offerings of its securities, all upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. 
 (b) Right to Terminate
Registration. The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any Registration initiated by it under Section 2.2(a) prior to the effectiveness of such Registration, whether or not any Holder has elected to participate therein. The
expenses of such withdrawn Registration shall be borne by the Company in accordance with Section 2.3. 
 (c)
Underwriting Requirements. 
 (1) In connection with any offering involving an underwriting of the Company’s Equity
Securities, the Company shall not be required to Register the Registrable Securities of a Holder under this Section 2.2 unless such Holder shall include such Registrable Securities in the underwriting and such Holder enters into an underwriting
agreement in customary form with the underwriters selected by the Company and setting forth such terms for the underwriting as have been agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters. Subject to Section 2.2(c)(2), in the event the
underwriters advise Holders seeking Registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2.2 in writing that market factors (including the aggregate number of Registrable Securities requested to be Registered, the general condition
of the market, and the status of the Persons proposing to sell securities pursuant to the Registration) require a limitation of the number of Equity Securities to be underwritten, the underwriters may exclude some or all Registrable Securities from
the Registration and underwriting after excluding any other Equity Securities from the underwriting (other than any Equity Securities which the Company may seek to include in the underwriting for its own account), and the number of Equity Securities
and Registrable Securities that may be included in the Registration and the underwriting shall be allocated (i) first, to the Company and (ii) thereafter, among the Holders requesting inclusion of their Registrable Securities in such
Registration Statement in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective amounts of Registrable Securities which the Holders would otherwise be entitled to include in the Registration. 

(2) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.2(c), in connection with any offering involving an underwriting of
the Company’s Equity Securities, in no event shall the underwriters exclude any Registrable Securities which Holders may seek to include in such Registration and underwriting under this Section 2.2 unless at least twenty percent
(20%) in voting power of any Registrable Securities requested by the Holders to be included in such underwriting and Registration shall be included, unless such offering is the Company’s Initial Public Offering in which case the selling
Holders may be excluded beyond this amount if the underwriters make the determination described above. 
  

 6 

 (3) If any Holder disapproves of the terms of any underwriting, the Holder may elect to
withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the underwriters delivered at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement. Any Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from the
underwriting shall be withdrawn from the Registration. 
 (d) Exempt Transactions. The Company shall have no obligation
to Register any Registrable Securities under this Section 2.2 in connection with a Registration by the Company (i) relating solely to the sale of securities to participants in a Company share plan, (ii) relating to a corporate
reorganization or other transaction under Rule 145 of the Securities Act (or comparable provision under the laws of another jurisdiction, as applicable), or (iii) on any form that does not include substantially the same information as would be
required to be included in a Registration Statement covering the sale of the Registrable securities. 
 (e) Registration
pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall not be deemed to be a demand registration as described in Section 2.1. There shall be no limit on the number of times the Holders may request Registration of Registrable Securities under this
Section 2.2. 
 2.3 Expenses. All expenses incurred in connection with Registrations, filings or qualifications
pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, (i) any underwriting, brokerage or similar commissions, compensation, discounts or concessions paid or allowed by the Company incurred or to be incurred by the selling Holders in
connection with such issue or sale, (ii) all expenses of any Persons in preparing or assisting in preparing, word processing, printing and distributing any Registration Statement, any Prospectus, any amendments or supplements thereto, any
underwriting agreements, securities sales agreements and other documents relating to the performance of and compliance with this Agreement (excluding expenses or costs in respect of Company employees in connection therewith), (iii) all fees and
expenses incurred in connection with the listing, if any, of any of the Registrable Securities on any securities exchange or exchanges, (iv) all fees and expenses of the Depositary relating to the deposit of the Registrable Securities into the
deposit facility and issuance by the Depositary of shares or receipts representing such Registrable Securities, (v) the fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and of the independent public accountants of the Company specifically
related to such Registration, including the expenses of any special audits or “comfort” letters required by or incident to such performance and compliance, (vi) the fees and expenses of share registry or custodian, (vii) the
reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel representing the Holders of Registrable Securities, and (viii) all U.S. federal, “blue sky” and all foreign registration, filing and qualification fees, accounting fees, and fees and
disbursements of counsel for the Company (but excluding underwriters’ discounts and commissions relating to shares sold by the Holders), shall be borne by the Holders (allocated pro rata based on the Registrable Securities included in such
Registration); provided, however, that (i) where an offering of securities includes a primary offering by the Company, the Holders shall bear the pro rata portion of expenses attributable to them based on the number of the Registrable
Securities included in such Registration (for the avoidance of doubt, any such fees or expenses that are incurred entirely as a result of sales by the selling shareholders shall be borne on a pro rata basis with regard only to the Registrable
Securities offered by the selling Holders in the aggregate and not by the Company) and (ii) the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the amount of such expenses. 

 

 7 

 2.4 Obligations of the Company. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.3 hereof,
whenever required to effect the Registration of any Registrable Securities under this Agreement, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible: 

(a) Registration Statement. Prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement with respect to those Registrable
Securities, use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and keep such Registration Statement effective until the distribution contemplated in the Registration Statement has been completed.

 (b) Amendments and Supplements. Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such
Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with such Registration Statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of Applicable Securities Law with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such
Registration Statement. 
 (c) Prospectuses. Furnish to the Holders such number of copies of a prospectus, including a
preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the Applicable Securities Law, and such other documents as such Holders may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by them that are
included in such Registration. 
 (d) Blue Sky. Use its commercially reasonable efforts to register and qualify the
securities covered by such Registration Statement under such other securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders, provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith
or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions. 

(e) Underwriting. In the event of any Underwritten Offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting
agreement in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter(s) of such offering. Each Holder participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement. 

(f) Opinion and Comfort Letter. In the event of any Underwritten Offering, furnish, at the request of any Holder requesting
Registration of Registrable Securities, on the date that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriter(s) for sale, if such securities are being sold through underwriters, or, if such securities are not being sold through
underwriters, on the date that the Registration Statement with respect to such securities becomes effective, (i) an opinion, dated as of such date, of the counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such Registration, in form and
substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the Holders requesting registration of Registrable Securities and (ii) a “comfort” letter dated as of
such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the Company, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters,
if any, and to the Holders requesting registration of Registrable Securities. 
  

 8 

 (g) Transfer Agent and CUSIP. Provide a transfer agent and registrar for all
Registrable Securities Registered pursuant to the Registration Statement and, where applicable, a CUSIP number for all those Registrable Securities, in each case not later than the effective date of the Registration. 

(h) Notification. Notify Holders that participate in the Registration at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required
to be delivered under Applicable Securities Laws of (i) the issuance of any stop order by the Commission, or (ii) the happening of any event as a result of which any prospectus included in the Registration Statement, as then in effect,
includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing. 

(i) Further Actions. Take all reasonable action necessary to: (i) cause the Depositary to accept the deposit of the
Registrable Securities into the deposit facility to issue ADSs (or receipts) representing such Registrable Securities and to issue the related ADRs; (ii) cause the Depositary to register with the Commission (to the extent necessary) such ADSs;
and (iii) list the Registrable Securities on the primary exchange upon which the Company’s securities are traded. 

2.5 Obligations of Holders. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to Register the Registrable
Securities of any Holder pursuant to this Section 2 that the selling Holder shall promptly furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held thereby and the intended method of disposition of such
securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably request in writing and as shall be required to timely effect the Registration of such Holder’s Registrable Securities. 

2.6 Indemnification. In the event any Registrable Securities are included in a Registration Statement under this Section 2:

 (a) Company Indemnity. To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, its
partners, officers, directors, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for such Holder and each Person, if any, who controls (as defined in the Securities Act) such Holder or underwriter against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities
(joint or several) to which they may become subject under laws which are applicable in connection with any Registration, qualification, or compliance, of the Company’s securities insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or
actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or violations (collectively a “Violation”): 

(1) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such Registration Statement, including any
preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto; 
 (2) the omission or
alleged omission to state in the Registration Statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading; or 
 (3) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of Applicable Securities Laws, or
any rule or regulation promulgated under Applicable Securities Laws; 
  

 9 

 and the Company will reimburse each such Holder, its partner, officer, director, underwriter or controlling
Person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them, as incurred, in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this
Section 2.6(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), nor shall
the Company be liable in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished
expressly for use in connection with such Registration by such Holder, underwriter or controlling Person of such Holder. 
 (b)
Holder Indemnity. To the extent permitted by law, each selling Holder will severally and not jointly indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its officers, directors, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for such Holder, any
other Holder selling securities in such Registration Statement and each Person, if any, who controls (as defined in the Securities Act) the Company, underwriter or other Holder against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several)
to which they may become subject under laws which are applicable in connection with any Registration, qualification, or compliance, of the Company’s securities insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect
thereof) arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection with such
Registration by such Holder; and each such Holder will reimburse each person intended to be indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.6(b) for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them, as incurred, in connection with investigating
or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 2.6(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action
if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), nor shall any indemnity under this Section 2.6(b) exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder, except in
the case of fraud or willful misconduct by such Holder. 
 (c) Notice. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party
under this Section 2.6 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 2.6, deliver
to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly
noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party shall have the right to retain one separate counsel (plus local counsel), with the fees and expenses to be paid by
the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflict of interests between such indemnified party and any other party
represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within thirty (30) days of the commencement of any such action shall relieve such indemnifying party of liability to the indemnified
party under this Section 2.6 to the extent the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced as a result thereof, but the omission to so deliver written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any
indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 2.6. 
  

 10 

 (d) Contribution. If any indemnification provided for in this Section 2.6 is
held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense referred to herein, the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party hereunder,
shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party, on the one hand, and
of the indemnified party, on the other, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying
party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the
indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. 

(e) Survival. The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 2.6 shall survive the completion of any offering
of Registrable Securities in a Registration Statement, regardless of the expiration of any statutes of limitation or extensions of such statutes. 

2.7 Termination of the Company’s Obligations. The Company shall not be obligated under this Section 2 to Register any
Registrable Securities which a Holder proposes to sell after three (3) years following the consummation of the Company’s Initial Public Offering, or, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Company confirmed in writing to the
Holders and the Depositary, all such Registrable Securities proposed to be sold may then be sold without registration and without restriction (including volume limitations) pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act. 

2.8 Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act and any
comparable provision of Applicable Securities Law which may at any time permit the sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration or pursuant to a registration on Form S-1, F-1, S-3 or F-3, the Company agrees to: 

(a) Make and keep current public information available, as contemplated in Rule 144(c) under the Securities Act, at all times after the
effective date of the Registration Statement filed by the Company for the Company’s Initial Public Offering; 
 (b) File
with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under Applicable Securities Law; and 

(c) So long as a Holder owns any Registrable Securities, to furnish to such Holder forthwith upon request (i) a written statement by
the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of all Applicable Securities Laws (at any time after the Company has become subject to such reporting requirements), or whether it qualifies as a registrant whose securities may be
resold pursuant to Form S-3 or F-3, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or, if available, quarterly report, of the Company and such other reports and documents as may be filed by the Company with the Commission, and (iii) such other
information, reports and documents of the Company as a Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission that permits the selling of any such securities without registration (at any time after the Company
has become subject to the reporting requirements under the Exchange Act) or pursuant to Form S-3 or F-3 (at any time after the Company so qualifies to use such form). 

 

 11 

 SECTION 3 MISCELLANEOUS 

3.1 Binding Effect; Assignment. 

(a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the rights of any Holder under this Agreement may be assigned or transferred (but
only with all related obligations) by a Holder to a transferee of Registrable Securities that (i) is an Affiliate of a Holder; or (ii) is a Holder’s Immediate Family Member or trust for the benefit of an individual Holder or one or
more of such Holder’s Immediate Family Members; or (iii) after such transfer, holds at least 2,000,000 shares of Registrable Securities (subject to appropriate adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations, and other
recapitalizations), in each case if (x) the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer, furnished with written notice of the name and address of such transferee or assignee and the securities with respect to which such rights are
being assigned and (y) such transferee or assignee agrees in writing to be bound by and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. From the time of such transfer or assignment, for all purposes of each section of this Agreement,
such transferee or assignee shall be treated as a “Holder”, as the case may be. 
 (b) This Agreement shall be binding
upon and shall be enforceable by each party, its successors and permitted assigns. Except as provided in Section 3.1(a) and Section 3.1(b), no party may assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written approval
of the other parties. 
 3.2 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the
laws of the State of New York. 
 3.3 Dispute Resolution. 

(a) Any dispute, controversy or claim (each, a “Dispute”) arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the
interpretation, breach, termination or validity hereof, shall be resolved at the first instance through consultation between the representatives appointed by the highest ranking corporate officer of the Company and a representative selected by a
majority of the Registrable Securities outstanding at the time of such dispute (provided, however, that any dispute as to any particular Registration Statement shall be resolved by a representative selected by the Holders representing a majority of
the Registratable Securities included in such Registration Statement) (each a “Party”). Such consultation shall begin immediately after either Party has delivered to the other Party a written notice for such consultation.

 (b) If the Dispute is not resolved within sixty (60) days following the date on which such notice is given, the Dispute
shall be submitted to arbitration upon the request of either Party with notice to the other Party (the “Arbitration Notice”). 
  

 12 

 (c) The arbitration shall be conducted in Hong Kong under the auspices of the Hong Kong
International Arbitration Centre (the “Centre”). There shall be three (3) arbitrators. The claimants in the Dispute shall collectively choose one arbitrator, and the respondents shall collectively choose one arbitrator. The
Secretary General of the Centre shall select the third arbitrator, who shall be qualified to practice law in the State of New York. If any of the members of the arbitral tribunal have not been appointed within thirty (30) days after the
Arbitration Notice is given, the relevant appointment shall be made by the Secretary General of the Centre. 
 (d) The
arbitration proceedings shall be conducted in English. The arbitration tribunal shall apply the Arbitration Rules of the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law, as in effect at the time of the arbitration. However, if such rules are in
conflict with the provisions of this Section 3.3, including the provisions concerning the appointment of arbitrator, the provisions of this Section 3.3 shall prevail. 

(e) Each Party shall cooperate with the other in making full disclosure of and providing complete access to all information and documents
requested by the other in connection with such arbitration proceedings, subject only to any confidentiality obligations binding on such Party. 

(f) The arbitrator shall decide any dispute submitted by the parties to the arbitration strictly in accordance with the substantive law
of the State of New York and shall not apply any other substantive law. 
 (g) The award of the arbitration tribunal shall be
final and binding upon the Parties, and the prevailing Party may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for enforcement of such award. 

(h) Either Party shall be entitled to seek preliminary injunctive relief, if possible, from any court of competent jurisdiction pending
the constitution of the arbitral tribunal. 
 (i) During the course of the arbitration tribunal’s adjudication of the
dispute, this Agreement shall continue to be performed except with respect to the part in dispute and under adjudication. 
 (j)
The cost of arbitration (including legal, accounting and other professional fees and expenses reasonably incurred, by any prevailing Party with respect to the investigation, collection, prosecution and/or defense of any claim in the Dispute) shall
be borne pro rata by each losing Party. 
 3.4 Amendments; Termination. This Agreement and its provisions may be amended,
changed, waived, discharged or terminated only by a writing signed by each of (i) the Company and (ii) the Holders representing seventy-five percent (75%) in voting power of Registrable Securities then outstanding. Any amendment,
change, waiver, discharge or termination effected in accordance with the preceding sentence shall be binding upon each of the parties hereto and their successors and permitted assigns. Without limiting the foregoing, any party hereto may in writing
waive any right that it individually holds hereunder without seeking the prior consent of any other party hereto. This Agreement shall automatically terminate when all Holders cease to hold any Registrable Securities. 

 

 13 

 3.5 Notices. All notices, claims, certificates, requests, demands and other
communications under this Agreement shall be made in writing and shall be delivered to any party hereto by hand or sent by facsimile, or sent by the electronic mail system reputable overnight courier services at the address given for such party on
the signature pages hereof (or at such other address for such party as shall be specified by like notice), and shall be deemed given when so delivered by hand, or if sent by facsimile, upon receipt of a confirmed transmittal receipt, or if sent by
overnight courier, five (5) calendar days after delivery to or pickup by the overnight courier service. 
 3.6 Further
Assurances. Each Party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents as the other Party may reasonably
request to give effect to the terms and intent of this Agreement. 
 3.7 Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the
entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior written or oral understandings or agreements. 

3.8 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this
Agreement shall not be affected thereby and shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by law. 
 3.9 Remedies
Cumulative. The rights and remedies available under this Agreement or otherwise available shall be cumulative of all other rights and remedies and may be exercised successively. 

3.10 Counterpart Execution. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original
but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 
 3.11 No Third Party Beneficiary. Except as
contemplated in Section 2.6, nothing in this Agreement is intended to confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns any rights, benefits, or obligations hereunder.
