consistent with Past Practice unless otherwise required by Law. In the event that Past Practice is not applicable to a particular item or matter, the Mixed Return Preparing Party shall determine the reporting of such item or matter in good faith.
The Mixed Return Preparing Party shall submit to the other party (the “Mixed Return Reviewing Party”) information relating to the portion of such Tax Return that relates to Taxes for which the Mixed Return Reviewing Party is

required to be prepared by Red Lion, shall be prepared by Red Lion in the manner determined by Navy in its sole discretion, provided, however, that nothing herein shall obligate Red Lion to take a position on a Tax Return that is
inconsistent with applicable law), provided, further, that to the extent such Tax Return relates to any Taxes other than U.S. federal, state or local Taxes, Navy shall provide a draft of any such portion of any such Tax Return to Red
Lion for its review and comment at least thirty (30) days prior to the Due Date for such Tax Return, provided, however, that nothing herein shall prevent Navy or Red Lion from timely filing any such Tax Return. The Parties shall negotiate in
good faith to resolve all disputed issues. Any disputes that the Parties are unable to resolve shall be resolved by the Accounting Firm pursuant to Section 8.01. In the event that any dispute is not resolved (whether pursuant to good faith

resolution of such dispute in a manner consistent with such resolution. 
 Section 2.05 Straddle Period Tax Allocation. Navy and
Red Lion shall take all actions necessary or appropriate to close the taxable year of Red Lion and each Red Lion Entity for all Tax purposes as of the close of the Closing Date to the extent required or permitted by applicable Law. If applicable Law
does not require or permit Red Lion or a Red Lion Entity, as the case may be, to close its taxable year on the Closing Date, then the allocation of income or deductions required or permitted to determine any Taxes or other amounts attributable to
the portion of the Straddle Period ending on, or beginning after, the Closing Date shall (i) in the case of Taxes that are based upon or related to income or receipts or imposed on a transactional basis, be deemed equal to the amount that would
be payable if the Tax year or period ended on the Closing Date; and (ii) in the case of other Taxes, be allocated pro rata per day between the portion of the period ending on the Closing Date and the portion of the period beginning the day
after the Closing Date; provided that exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual or periodic basis shall be allocated between such portions in proportion to the number of days in each such portion.

case of a payment to a Taxing Authority, be paid on or before the Due Date for the payment of such Taxes and, in the case of a reimbursement to the other Party, be paid at least two (2) business days before the Due Date for the payment of such
Taxes by the other Party.

the allocation of such Tax Item between the Red Lion Business and the Navy Business) in a manner consistent with the provisions hereof and any disputes shall be resolved by the Accounting Firm in accordance with Section 8.01.

 Section 3.04 Characterization of and Adjustments to Payments. 

(a) For all Tax purposes, Navy and Red Lion agree to treat (i) any payment required by this Agreement (other than payments with respect

(ii) any payment of non-federal Taxes by or to a Taxing Authority or any payment of interest as taxable or deductible, as the case may be, as paid to the Party entitled under this Agreement to retain such
payment or required under this Agreement to make such payment, in either case except as otherwise required by applicable Law. 
 (b) Any
indemnity payment under this Article III shall be decreased to take into account an amount equal to the Tax Benefit actually realized by the Indemnified Party (which Tax Benefit would not have arisen or been realized but for such indemnified
liability).

an Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article III shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party within ten (10) days after written notification thereof by the Indemnified Party, including

ARTICLE IV 
 REFUNDS,
CARRYBACKS, TIMING DIFFERENCE AND TAX ATTRIBUTES 
 Section 4.01 Refunds. 

(a) Except as provided in this Section 4.01 or Section 4.02, Navy shall be entitled to all Refunds of Taxes for which Navy is
responsible pursuant to Article III, and Red Lion shall be entitled to all Refunds of Taxes for which Red Lion is responsible pursuant to Article III and Refunds that are accrued and reflected in the Working Capital adjustment pursuant to
section 2.7 of the Separation Agreement. A Party receiving a Refund to which the other Party is entitled pursuant to this Agreement shall pay the amount to which such other Party is entitled within ten (10) days after the receipt of the Refund.

 (b) In the event of an Adjustment relating to Taxes for which one Party is responsible pursuant to Article III which would have
given rise to a Refund but for an offset against the Taxes for which the other Party is or may be responsible pursuant to Article III (the “Benefited Party”), then the Benefited Party shall pay to the other Party, within ten
(10) days of the Final Determination of such Adjustment an amount equal to the amount of such reduction in the Taxes of the Benefited Party plus interest at the rate set forth in Section 6621(a)(1) on such amount for the period from the
filing date of the Tax Return that would have given rise to such Refund to the payment date. 
 (c) Notwithstanding Section 4.01(a), to
the extent that a Party applies or causes to be applied an overpayment of Taxes as a credit toward or a reduction in Taxes otherwise payable (or a Taxing Authority requires such application in lieu of a Refund) and such overpayment of Taxes, if
received as a Refund, would have been payable by such Party to the 

  
 16 

 
other Party pursuant to this Section 4.01, such Party shall pay such amount to the other Party no later than the Due Date of the Tax Return for which such overpayment is applied to reduce
Taxes otherwise payable. 
 (d) To the extent that the amount of any Refund under this Section 4.01 is later reduced by a Taxing
Authority or in a Tax Proceeding, such reduction shall be allocated to the Party to which such Refund was allocated pursuant to this Section 4.01 and an appropriate adjusting payment shall be made. 

Section 4.02 Carrybacks. 

(a) The carryback of any loss, credit or other Tax Attribute from any Post-Closing Period shall be in
accordance with the provisions of the Code and Treasury Regulations (and any applicable state, local or foreign Laws).

the extent otherwise consented to by Navy or prohibited by applicable Law, Red Lion shall elect to relinquish, waive or otherwise forgo the carryback of any loss, credit or other Tax Attribute from any Post-Closing Period to any Pre-Closing Period
or Straddle Period (a “Carryback”). In the event that Red Lion (or the appropriate member of the Red Lion Group) is prohibited by applicable Law to relinquish, waive or otherwise forgo a Carryback (or Navy consents to a Carryback),
Navy shall cooperate with Red Lion, at Red Lion’s expense, in seeking from the appropriate Taxing Authority such Refund as reasonably would result from such Carryback, to the extent that such Refund is directly attributable to such Carryback,
and shall pay over to Red Lion the amount of such Refund within ten (10) days after such Refund is received; provided, however, that Red Lion shall indemnify and hold the members of the Navy Group harmless from and against any and
all collateral Tax consequences resulting from or caused by any such Carryback, including, without limitation, the loss or postponement of any benefit from the use of Tax Attributes generated by a member of the Navy Group if (i) such Tax
Attributes expire unutilized, but would have been utilized but for such Carryback, or (ii) the use of such Tax Attributes is postponed to a later taxable period than the taxable period in which such Tax Attributes would have been utilized but
for such Carryback. 
 Section 4.03 Tax Attributes. 

(a) Navy and Red Lion shall jointly determine in good faith the allocation of Tax Attributes arising in a Pre-Closing Period to the Navy Group
and the Red Lion Group in accordance with the Code and Treasury Regulations, including Treasury Regulations Sections 1.1502-9T(c), 1.1502-21, 1.1502-21T, 1.1502-22, 1.1502-79 and, if applicable, 1.1502-79A (and any applicable state, local
and foreign Laws); provided, that (i) earnings and profits will be allocated in accordance with Code Section 312(h) and Treasury Regulations Sections 1.312-10(b) and 1.1502-33(e) and (ii) Navy shall make any determination as to
(A) basis, and (B) valuation, and shall make such determination consistent with Past Practice, where applicable. Navy and Red Lion hereby agree to compute all Taxes for Post-Closing Periods consistently with the determination of the
allocation of Tax Attributes pursuant to this Section 4.03(a) unless otherwise required by a Final Determination. 
 (b) To the extent
that the amount of any Tax Attribute is later reduced or increased by a Taxing Authority or Tax Proceeding, such reduction or increase shall be allocated to the Party to which such Tax Attribute was allocated pursuant to Section 4.03(a). 

  
 17 

 Section 4.04 [Reserved] 

Section 4.05 Timing Differences. If pursuant to a Final Determination any Tax Benefit is actually realized by a member of the Red
Lion Group as a result of an Adjustment to any Taxes for which a member of the Navy Group is responsible hereunder (or Tax Attribute of a member of the Navy Group) and such Tax Benefit would not have arisen or been realized but for such Adjustment,
or if pursuant to a Final Determination any Tax Benefit is actually realized by a member of the Navy Group as a result of an Adjustment to any Taxes for which a member of the Red Lion Group is responsible hereunder (or Tax Attribute of a member of
the Red Lion Group) and such Tax Benefit would not have arisen or been realized but for such Adjustment, Red Lion or Navy, as the case may be, shall make a payment to either Navy or Red Lion, as appropriate, within thirty (30) days following
the realization of any such Tax Benefit, in an amount equal to the Tax Benefit actually realized (including any Tax Benefit actually realized as a result of the payment).

shall promptly forward or make available to the Indemnifying Party copies of notices and communications relating to such Tax Proceeding. The failure of the Indemnified Party to notify the Indemnifying Party of the commencement of any such Tax
Proceeding within such ten (10) day period or promptly forward any further notices or communications shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any obligation which it may have to the Indemnified Party under this Agreement except to the extent
that the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such failure.

Mixed Return Reviewing Party is responsible pursuant to Article III) and shall not settle any such Tax Proceeding without the prior written consent of the Mixed Return Reviewing Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or
conditioned.

responsible pursuant to Article III), and shall not agree to any settlement or compromise of such Tax Proceeding without the consent of such responsible party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. 

ARTICLE VI 
 INTENDED
TAX TREATMENT OF CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS 
 Section 6.01 [Reserved] 

Section 6.02 Restrictions Relating to the Restructuring. 

(a) General. Neither Navy nor Red Lion shall, nor shall Navy or Red Lion permit, any Navy Entity or any Red Lion Entity, respectively,
to take or fail to take, as applicable, any action that constitutes a Disqualifying Action described in the definitions of Navy Disqualifying Action and Red Lion Disqualifying Action, respectively. 

(b) Restrictions. Prior to the first day following the second anniversary of the Merger (the “Restriction Period”),
except as required pursuant to any agreement to which Red Lion or NCPS became bound prior to the Effective Time, Red Lion: 

(i) shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to continue and cause to be continued the active conduct of the Red Lion Business
(within the meaning of Sections 355(a)(1)(C) and 355(b) of the Code and taking into account Section 355(b)(3) of the Code), in all cases as conducted immediately prior to the Restructuring; 

  
 20 

 (ii) shall not, and shall not permit its Subsidiaries that conduct the Red Lion
Business to, voluntarily dissolve or liquidate (including any action that is a liquidation for federal income tax purposes); 

(iii) shall not, and shall not permit its Subsidiaries to (or enter into any agreement, understanding, arrangement, or
substantial negotiations to (within the meaning of Section 355(e) of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section1.355-7)) engage in any Prohibited Issuance; 

(iv) shall not, and shall not permit its Subsidiaries to (or enter into any agreement, understanding, arrangement, or
substantial negotiations to (within the meaning of Section 355(e) of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 1.355-7)), sell or dispose of any Red Lion Entity in the chain of ownership that includes NCPS (including NCPS); provided,
however, that sales or dispositions of any such Red Lion Entity to any Person that is a direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of Red Lion shall be permitted; and 

(v) shall not, and shall not permit NCPS or any entity in the chain of NCPS ownership to, sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose
of or agree to, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose (including in any transaction treated for federal income tax purposes as a sale, transfer or disposition) of assets (including, any shares of capital stock of a Subsidiary) that, in the aggregate,
constitute more than 30% of the consolidated gross assets of NCPS. The foregoing sentence shall not apply to (1) sales, transfers, or dispositions of assets in the Ordinary Course of Business, (2) any cash paid to acquire assets from
an unrelated Person in an arm’s-length transaction, (3) any assets transferred to a Person that is disregarded as an entity separate from the transferor for federal income tax purposes, (4) any mandatory or optional repayment (or
pre-payment) of any indebtedness of Red Lion or any member of the Red Lion Group or (5) any merger, consolidation or amalgamation of Red Lion or any of its Subsidiaries with any Person that is a direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of Red
Lion. The percentages of gross assets or consolidated gross assets of NCPS sold, transferred, or otherwise disposed of, shall be based on the fair market value of the gross assets of NCPS owned as of the Closing Date. For purposes of this
Section 6.02(b)(v), a merger of Red Lion or one of its Subsidiaries with and into any Person that is not a wholly owned Subsidiary of Red Lion shall constitute a disposition of all of the assets of Red Lion or such Subsidiary. 

(c) Notwithstanding the restrictions imposed by Section 6.02(b), during the Restriction Period, Red Lion or a Red Lion Entity may proceed
with any of the actions or transactions described therein, if (i) Red Lion shall first have requested Navy to obtain a ruling in accordance with Section 6.03(a) to the effect that such action or transaction will not affect the Intended Tax
Treatment of the U.S. Distributions and Navy shall have received such a ruling in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to it, (ii) Red Lion shall have provided to Navy an 

  
 21 

 
Unqualified Tax Opinion in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Navy, or (iii) Navy shall have waived in writing the requirement to obtain such ruling or opinion. In determining
whether a ruling or opinion is reasonably satisfactory, Navy may consider, among other factors, the appropriateness of any underlying assumptions or representations used as a basis for the ruling or opinion and the views on the substantive merits.

 (d) Navy Consultation Right. During the Restriction Period, at least thirty (30) days prior to Red Lion or any entity in the
chain of NCPS ownership (including NCPS) (i) issuing shares, options, warrants or similar interests (other than any such interests (x) issued, in a transaction, other than a Prohibited Issuance, to which Code Sections 83 or 421(a) or
(b) applies, to a person for the performance of services as an employee, director, or independent contractor for Red Lion, Penny or any affiliate, (y) prohibited from being issued under 6.02(b)(iii) or (z) subject to preemptive rights
under Section 6.3(b) of the Bye-Laws of Red Lion Ltd.), (ii) merging with an entity not on the Prohibited Entities List, (iii) amending its Memorandum of Association, certificate of incorporation or other organizational documents, or
taking any other action affecting its capital stock, in each case in a manner that diminishes Navy’s relative per-share voting rights with respect to Red Lion or such entity, or (iv) agreeing to be acquired by an entity not on the
Prohibited Entities List (each, a “Proposed Action”): 
 (i) Red Lion shall provide written notice of such
Proposed Action to Navy’s general counsel (the “Navy General Counsel”) describing the steps to be taken pursuant to such Proposed Action and the parties involved in such Proposed Action (the “Proposed Action
Notice”); 
 (ii) Red Lion and Navy will cooperate with each other and provide each other such information as Red
Lion or Navy, as applicable, reasonably determines to be necessary for it to determine whether the Proposed Action may compromise the Intended Tax Treatment of the U.S. Distributions. 

(iii) The Navy General Counsel shall, within twenty (20) days of receipt of the Proposed Action Notice, respond in writing
to Red Lion informing Red Lion that Navy objects to the Proposed Action because Navy has determined in good faith that there is a reasonable risk that the Proposed Action would cause the U.S. Distributions to fail to qualify for the Intended Tax
Treatment (such written response, the “Navy Consultation Statement”). In the event that Navy objects to the Proposed Action pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Navy Consultation Statement shall set forth a detailed explanation
specifying the factual basis and legal analysis supporting Navy’s good faith assessment that there is a reasonable risk that the Proposed Action would cause the U.S. Distributions to fail to qualify for the Intended Tax Treatment; 

(iv) Following receipt of the Navy Consultation Statement, Red Lion or the Red Lion Entity shall be permitted to take the
Proposed Action. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Red Lion shall indemnify Navy for any Taxes imposed as a result of the U.S. Distributions failing to qualify for the Intended Tax Treatment as a result of Red Lion or a Red
Lion Entity taking a Proposed Action if (1) no Tax would have been imposed but for an agreement, understanding, arrangement or substantial negotiations during the two-year period ending on the date of the

  
 22 

 
Restructuring by persons who were directors, officers or by another person or persons with the implicit or explicit permission of one or more of such officers, directors, or controlling
shareholders of Penny or any of its Subsidiaries, or (2) Navy properly objected to such Proposed Action in accordance with the terms of this Section 6.02(d). For the avoidance of doubt, Red Lion shall not be required to indemnify Navy
pursuant to this Section 6.02(d)(iv) for any Taxes imposed as a result of the U.S. Distributions failing to qualify for the Intended Tax Treatment as a result of a Proposed Action taken following completion of the consultation process described
in this Section 6.02(d) if (i) Navy does not object to such Proposed Action and (ii) either (A) no event or circumstance described in (1) above occurred, or (B) an event or circumstance described in (1) above has
occurred, but the Tax would have been imposed even had such event or circumstance not occurred. 
 (e) Tax Reporting. Each of Navy
and Red Lion covenants and agrees that it will not take, and will cause its respective Affiliates to refrain from taking, any position on any Income Tax Return that is inconsistent with the Intended Tax Treatment of the U.S. Distributions. 

(f) For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding the restrictions set forth in this Section 6.02, Red Lion shall be permitted to enter
into the Merger and the Merger shall not be considered to be a Red Lion Disqualifying Action, but shall not impact any obligations of the parties under this Agreement. 

Section 6.03 Procedures Regarding Opinions and Rulings. 

(a) If Red Lion notifies Navy that it desires to take one of the actions described in Section 6.02(b) (a “Notified
Action”), Navy shall cooperate with Red Lion and use its reasonable best efforts to seek to obtain a ruling from the IRS or an Unqualified Tax Opinion for the purpose of permitting Red Lion to take the Notified Action unless Navy shall have
waived the requirement to obtain such ruling or opinion. If such a ruling is to be sought, Navy shall apply for such ruling and Navy and Red Lion shall jointly control the process of obtaining such ruling. In no event shall Navy be required to file
any ruling request under this Section 6.03(a) unless Red Lion represents that (i) it has read such ruling request, and (ii) all information and representations, if any, relating to any member of the Red Lion Group, contained in such
ruling request documents are (subject to any qualifications therein) true, correct and complete. Red Lion shall reimburse Navy for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Navy Group in obtaining a ruling or Unqualified Tax Opinion
requested by Red Lion within ten (10) days after receiving an invoice from Navy therefor. 
 (b) Navy shall have the right to obtain a
ruling or an Unqualified Tax Opinion at any time in its sole and absolute discretion. If Navy determines to obtain such ruling or opinion, Red Lion shall (and shall cause each Red Lion Entity to) cooperate with Navy and take any and all actions
reasonably requested by Navy in connection with obtaining such ruling or opinion (including by making any representation or reasonable covenant or providing any materials requested by the IRS or the law firm issuing such opinion); provided, that Red
Lion shall not be required to make (or cause a Red Lion Entity to make) any representation or covenant that is untrue or inconsistent with historical facts, or as to future matters or events over 

  
 23 

 
which it has no control. In connection with obtaining such ruling, Navy shall apply for such ruling and shall have sole and exclusive control over the process of obtaining such ruling. Navy shall
reimburse Red Lion for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Red Lion Group in cooperating with Navy’s efforts to obtain a ruling or Unqualified Tax Opinion within ten (10) days after receiving an invoice from Red Lion
therefor. 
 (c) Except as provided in Sections 6.03(a) and (b), following the Effective Time, neither Red Lion nor any Red Lion Entity
or Affiliate shall seek any guidance from the IRS or any other Taxing Authority (whether written, verbal or otherwise) at any time concerning the Restructuring (including the impact of any transaction on the Restructuring).

Party only. The Parties shall require the Accounting Firm to resolve all disputes no later than thirty (30) days after the submission of such dispute to the Accounting Firm, but in no event later than the Due Date for the payment of Taxes or

without limitation, with respect to the restrictions imposed on Red Lion under Section 6.02. 
 Section 8.06 Severability.
If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced under any Law or as a matter of public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. Upon such

(b) any or all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement in connection with a sale or disposition of any of its assets or entities or lines of business; provided, however, that, in each case, no such assignment shall
release such Party from any liability or obligation under this Agreement nor change any of the steps in the Plan of Reorganization (as such term is defined in the Separation Agreement). Except as provided in Article III with respect to
indemnified Parties, this Agreement is for the sole benefit of the Parties to this Agreement and their respective Subsidiaries and their permitted successors and assigns and nothing in this

conditions and provisions of this Agreement, the Party who is or is to be thereby aggrieved shall have the right to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief of its rights under this Agreement, in addition to any and all other
rights and remedies at law or in equity, and all such rights and remedies shall be cumulative. The Parties agree that the remedies at law for any breach or threatened breach, including monetary damages, may be inadequate compensation for any loss
and that any defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate is waived. Any requirements for the securing or posting of any bond with such remedy are waived by the Parties to this Agreement.

 RECITALS 

WHEREAS, in connection with that certain Merger Agreement, dated June 25, 2014 (the “Merger Agreement”),
by and among C&J Energy Services, Inc. (“C&J Energy Services”), Navy, the Company, Nabors CJ Merger Co., a Delaware corporation and CJ Holding Co., a Delaware corporation, as amended from time to time,

into the right to receive Red Lion Common Shares (as defined in the Merger Agreement), with C&J Energy Services continuing as the surviving corporation and an indirect wholly owned Subsidiary (as defined in the Merger Agreement) of the Company,
all upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein (the “Merger”), with the Company changing its name to “C&J Energy Services Ltd.” pursuant to the Merger, the Parties desire to formally

 WHEREAS, following the
completion of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated as part of the Red Lion Restructuring (as defined in the Merger Agreement), the Company and its affiliates will engage in the business on a global basis of (a) the production

the P&C Services and the Drilling Services by the Parties (collectively, the “Complementary Services”) with respect to Eligible Projects (as defined below) following the date hereof, in each case only to the extent set
forth in this Agreement; 

 WHEREAS, the Parties, by acting in accordance with the process set forth in this Agreement
to review and discuss economic opportunities as they may arise, intend to use commercially reasonable efforts to promote the applicable Complementary Service of the other Party to existing and potential Clients (as defined below) throughout the
world in respect of (a) spot market opportunities, (b) contractual bids, and (c) Navy’s domestic and international service offerings, in each case in an effort to facilitate the introduction of Company technology offerings into
multiple markets and to provide Navy with a strategic advantage in its service offerings; 
 NOW THEREFORE, in consideration
of the premises and the mutual covenants hereinafter contained, the Parties agree as follows: 
 ARTICLE I 

COOPERATION 
  

	SECTION 1	GENERAL PREMISES 

 1.1 Subject to Section 3, in the event either Party is invited by
a Client to participate in an Eligible Project, that Party shall inform the other Party of such invitation, and the Parties shall act in accordance with this Agreement to collaborate with respect to such Eligible Project with the goal of securing
the engagement with the Client to provide the Client-requested Complementary Services. 
 “Complementary Services Procurement
Process” means any procurement process that is conducted by a third party (such third party, a “Client”) where (a) the Client has requested that the Complementary Services be bid together as a single
offering by participating bidders, or (b) the Party submitting a bid wishes to include in its bid any of the services included within the other Party’s Complementary Services. 

“Eligible Project” means any Complementary Services Procurement Process where the final anticipated result of such process is
that the Client will award to a participating bidder a contract for the selected bidder to provide components of both Complementary Services in an Eligible Country. 

“Eligible Country” means any country other than (a) subject to Section 1.8, Saudi Arabia, (b) Ecuador,
(c) Argentina, (d) until the termination or expiration of that certain Cooperation Agreement dated November 26, 2013 (“Mexico Cooperation Agreement”), between C&J Energy Services and Compañía
Perforadora México, S.A.P.I. DE C.V. in accordance with its terms, Mexico, and (e) with respect to workover services contracted by Shehtah Nabors LP, Canada. 

1.2 With respect to each Eligible Project, the Parties shall share documentation provided by the Client to the extent the Client permits the
Party invited to participate in the Eligible Project to share Eligible Project-related documentation and information with such Party’s agents, subcontractors, and strategic partners. The Parties shall discuss the Eligible

  
 2 

 
Project and shall act in good faith to develop a bid to provide Complementary Services that comply with all requirements and requests of the Client regarding the requested Complementary Services.
“Primary Bidding Party” means the Party that has been invited to participate in the procurement process for the Eligible Project, or that otherwise has the relationship with the Client that would ordinarily be expected to
result in the awarding of the contract to provide Complementary Services. “Secondary Bidding Party” means, with respect to the applicable Eligible Project, the Party other than the Primary Bidding Party. 

1.3 With respect to each Eligible Project, the Parties will discuss in good faith the bidding requirements, the scope and other requirements
for the Complementary Services, and options for transaction structuring. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Primary Bidding Party on the applicable Eligible Project shall in all instances have discretion regarding bid
submissions and all other communications with the Client. Subject to Section 1.7, the Secondary Bidding Party on the applicable Eligible Project shall not (a) except to the extent otherwise agreed by the Primary Bidding Party in its sole
discretion, submit a bid for such Eligible Project, and (b) except to the extent otherwise unanimously approved by the Steering Committee (as defined below), communicate with the applicable Client regarding such Eligible Project. Except to the
extent otherwise agreed by the Primary Bidding Party in its sole discretion, the transaction structure to provide the Client the Complementary Services shall be a one-to-one services agreement between the Client (or its designee) and the Primary
Bidding Party (or one of its affiliates), with the Secondary Bidding Party acting as a subcontractor of the Primary Bidding Party’s in the provision of the applicable Complementary Services (with such principal-subcontractor relationship to be
set forth in a subcontractor services agreement to be agreed by the Parties with respect to the applicable Complementary Services). 

1.4 The Primary Bidding Party shall engage the Secondary Bidding Party as part of the bid to provide Complementary Services with
respect to an Eligible Project; provided, however, that in the event of any of the following, the Primary Bidding Party on an Eligible Project shall have no obligation to collaborate with the Secondary Bidding Party on such Eligible
Project, and the Secondary Bidding Party shall have no right to participate in or directly benefit solely from the Primary Bidding Party’s dealings with the applicable Client regarding the applicable Eligible Project: 

(a) The Secondary Bidding Party informs the Primary Bidding Party that the Secondary Bidding Party (i) does not wish to provide the
applicable Complementary Services or (ii) lacks the authorization or capability to provide the Complementary Services in a manner that complies with all of the Client’s requirements; 

(b) The Client rejects the Secondary Bidding Party’s involvement in the bidding process or the proposed delivery of the Complementary
Services; 
 (c) The Secondary Bidding Party (i) fails to provide, in a timely and complete fashion, information or documentation
requested by the Client to assist in the evaluation of the Primary Bidding Party’s proposal, or (ii) fails to participate in any presentation, additional submissions, or other similar activities (to the extent such activities are permitted
under law and this Agreement) necessary to secure the contract to provide the applicable Complementary Services; 

  
 3 

 (d) The Secondary Bidding Party proposes Complementary Services, or any terms and conditions
relating thereto (including pricing), that do not comply with every bidding or service requirement established by the Client regarding the applicable Eligible Project; 

(e) The Secondary Bidding Party is not at that time authorized, or in the process of obtaining authorization (to the extent the Secondary
Bidding Party can reasonably demonstrate such pending authorization to be on schedule to be issued prior to the scheduled work start date for the applicable Eligible Project), to provide the applicable Complementary Services in all jurisdictions
proposed by the Client; 
 (f) The Secondary Bidding Party is then, or has at any point during the previous six months, been convicted,
sanctioned, or investigated for failure to comply with any anti-bribery, anti-corruption, occupational safety, or import/export (or other trade regulation) violation in the applicable country; 

(g) The Secondary Bidding Party fails to provide a proposal to the Primary Bidding Party to provide the Services, in a manner and on terms
that are entirely consistent with the Client’s requests as communicated by the Primary Bidding Party to the Secondary Bidding Party, by the earlier of (i) the date thirty (30) days after the date on which the Primary Bidding Party
informs the Secondary Bidding Party of the project and provides substantially accurate bidding requirements for the applicable Eligible Project, and (ii) the date five (5) days prior to the date on which the Primary Bidding Party’s
bid is due to be submitted to the Client; provided, however, that in any event, the Secondary Bidding Party shall have at least twenty (20) days to submit such proposal after the Primary Bidding Party requests such proposal; or

 (h) After receiving the Secondary Bidding Party’s pricing proposal for the applicable Complementary Services, the Primary Bidding
Party obtains or receives a bona fide proposal from a third party to provide such Complementary Services for fees that are lower than the fees proposed by the Secondary Bidding Party; provided, however, that prior to the Primary
Service Provider’s giving notice to the Secondary Bidding Party that the Secondary Bidding Party will thereafter be excluded from participating in the bidding process for such Complementary Services, the Parties shall follow the following
Process: 
 (i) The Primary Bidding Party shall inform the Secondary Bidding Party that another party has proposed lower pricing (without
any obligation to disclose what the third party’s pricing proposal is to the extent the Primary Bidding Party is bound by an effective confidentiality obligation to such third party); then 

(ii) The Secondary Bidding Party shall have up to five (5) business days to submit a revised pricing proposal; 

(iii) In the event the Secondary Bidding Party’s revised pricing proposal remains higher than the third party’s pricing proposal,
the Primary Bidding Party shall have no obligation to involve or consider the Secondary Bidding Party regarding the applicable Complementary Services, and the Primary Bidding Party may proceed on that basis; and 

(iv) In the event the Secondary Bidding Party’s revised pricing proposal is lower or equal to the third party’s pricing proposal,
the Primary Bidding Party shall 

  
 4 

 
continue to collaborate with the Secondary Bidding Party in accordance with this Agreement unless and until any of the events set forth in this Section 1.4 occur (excluding lower third party
pricing provided at a later date). 
 1.5 In the event either Party desires not to participate in the proposal process for the applicable
Eligible Project, such Party shall promptly notify the other Party of such Party’s intent not to participate with respect to such potential Eligible Project. Upon receipt of such notification, the notified Party may procure or arrange for the
applicable Complementary Service of the notifying Party to be performed by a third party without further obligation under this Agreement with respect to the applicable Eligible Project. 

1.6 In the event the Primary Bidding Party discloses to the Secondary Bidding Party information concerning any procurement or proposal process
and the Secondary Bidding Party desires not to participate in such procurement or proposal process, or in the event the Primary Bidding Party ceases including the Secondary Bidding Party in the bidding process as result of any of the criteria set
out in Section 1.4 being met, the Secondary Bidding Party shall not bid or otherwise act on such procurement or proposal process. 

1.7 For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement shall preclude Navy from providing Drilling Services and heavy workover services in
connection with integrated projects currently underway (including extensions thereof) or that arise in the future and for which the Company has not been approved to act on such integrated project as a primary bidder or integrated project manager by,
as applicable, (a) the client conducting the procurement process, or (b) the agent or integrated project manager selected by the ultimate client to manage the procurement process associated with such integrated project. 

1.8 The Parties shall discuss in good faith economic opportunities in Saudi Arabia to collaborate on projects on terms and conditions to be
agreed by the Parties on a case by case basis, in each case as such opportunities may arise. In each case, the Parties shall discuss in good faith whether the procedures set forth in this Agreement are practicable and appropriate for the
applicable opportunity in Saudi Arabia. Each Party shall have the right to include on the agenda for any Steering Committee meeting discussion items covering (a) potential economic opportunities in Saudi Arabia that have been identified,
or (b) potential strategies for the Parties to increase opportunities in Saudi Arabia. The Steering Committee may issue recommendations relating to Saudi Arabia, but each Party shall not be obligated to comply with those recommendations
except to the extent agreed in writing by the Parties. 
  

	SECTION 2	TERM; TERMINATION 

 2.1 This Agreement shall be effective as of the date of its
execution, and shall terminate in accordance with the provisions described below. 
 2.2 This Agreement shall terminate upon the earlier of
(and without any further liability for the Parties, except for those liabilities assumed by each Party with respect to third parties): 

(a) The fifth anniversary of the date hereof; and 

(b) The first anniversary of the first date Navy beneficially owns less than 15% of the outstanding common shares of the Company. 

2.3 If any contract entered into with any third party remains in effect upon the termination date, this Agreement shall remain in force solely
for purpose of completing such outstanding contract and the completion of the corresponding Eligible Project. 

  
 5 

	SECTION 3	EXCLUSIVITY; NON-COMPETE 

 3.1 The Parties acknowledge and agree that the
obligation to collaborate on an exclusive basis, to the extent set forth herein, is limited to Eligible Projects; provided, however, that: 

(a) In the event a Secondary Bidding Party competes with the Primary Bidding Party with respect to an Eligible Project for any reason, whether
such competition is permitted under or in breach of this Agreement, then upon the Primary Bidding Party’s election, the country in which such Eligible Project is located shall not thereafter be considered an Eligible Country (i) for any
Complementary Services Procurement Process conducted in such country, regardless of whether such procurement process is in progress as of, or commences after, the first date of such competition between the Parties, and (ii) for the purposes of
Section 3.4; 
 (b) In the event (i) a Party has an obligation under Section 3.4 not to compete in a given country with the
other Party in the provision of Complementary Services and (ii) that the non-compete obligation is found to be invalid or unenforceable by the applicable governing authority of such country, such jurisdiction shall not thereafter be considered
an Eligible Country with respect to either Party (A) for any Complementary Services Procurement Process conducted by either Party in such jurisdiction, regardless of whether such procurement process is in progress as of, or commences after, the
first date of such competition between the Parties, and (B) the provisions of Sections 3.4 (a), (b) and (c) shall not apply to either Party; 

(c) In the event a Primary Bidding Party is not obligated to solicit bids from the other Party as a Secondary Bidding Party under this
Agreement (as set out in Section 1.4) with respect to an Eligible Project, the Primary Bidding Party may proceed with respect to such Eligible Project, but the Secondary Bidding Party shall not proceed with respect to such Eligible Project;

 (d) In the event a Party notifies the other that the notifying Party does not intend to proceed with respect to an Eligible Project (as
set out in Section 1.5), the Party so notified may proceed with respect to such Eligible Project but the notifying Party shall not proceed with respect to such Eligible Project; and

the non-breaching Party shall be entitled to pursue equitable and injunctive relief and all other remedies to the maximum extent available at law or equity.

	SECTION 14	INDEMNIFICATION; DAMAGES AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY 

 14.1 INDEMNIFICATION. 

(a) Indemnification by Navy. Navy shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its Affiliates, officers, directors, employees,
successors and permitted assigns from and against any loss, liability (including settlements, judgments, fines and penalties) or costs (including reasonable attorney fees, court costs and other litigation expenses) relating to any action, suit or
proceeding (whether civil, criminal, administrative, arbitral, investigative or otherwise) brought by a third party against the Company (including by any governmental agency): 

(i) alleging that the Navy IP (and use thereof) infringes or misappropriates, or causes the infringement or misappropriation of, the
copyright, trademark, patent, trade secrets or other intellectual property rights of a third party, except to the extent such infringement or misappropriation is a direct result of: (A) the Company’s use of the Navy IP in contravention of
Navy’s instructions regarding the use thereof; (B) modifications to Navy IP made by the Company that are not made in accordance with the specifications, or with the approval, of Navy; (C) the Company not complying with instructions or
designs provided by Navy with respect to the Navy IP; or (D) any combination of the Navy IP by the Company with products or materials other than those provided, specified or authorized by Navy; 

(ii) relating to breach of Section 6 (Confidentiality) by Navy; or 

(iii) relating to breach of Section 7 (Compliance with Law) by Navy. 

Navy shall indemnify the Company from any costs incurred in connection with enforcing this Section 14.1(a). 

(b) Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Navy, its Affiliates, officers, directors,
employees, successors and permitted assigns from and against any loss, liability (including settlements, judgments, fines and penalties) or costs (including reasonable attorney fees, court costs and other litigation expenses) relating to any action,
suit or proceeding (whether civil, criminal, administrative, arbitral, investigative or otherwise) brought by a third party against Navy (including by any governmental agency): 

(i) alleging that the Company IP (and use thereof) infringes or misappropriates, or causes the infringement or misappropriation of, the
copyright, trademark, patent, trade secrets or other intellectual property rights of a third party, except to the extent such infringement or misappropriation is a direct result of: (A) Navy’s use of the Company IP in contravention of the
Company’s instructions regarding the use thereof; (B) modifications to Company IP made by Navy that are not made in accordance with the specifications, or with the approval, of the Company; (C) Navy not complying with instructions or
designs provided by the Company with respect to the Company IP; or (D) any combination of the Company IP by Navy with products or materials other than those provided, specified or authorized by the Company; 

(ii) relating to breach of Section 6 (Confidentiality) by the Company; or 

(iii) relating to breach of Section 7 (Compliance with Law) by the Company. 

The Company shall indemnify Navy from any costs incurred in connection with enforcing this Section 14.1(b). 

  
 16 

 (c) Indemnification Procedures. If any claim is commenced against a Party entitled to
indemnification under Section 14.1(a) or Section 14.1(b) (the “Indemnified Party”), prompt notice thereof shall be given by the Indemnified Party to the other Party (the “Indemnifying
Party”); provided, however, that failure by the Indemnified Party to provide prompt notice to the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Section 14.1 shall not affect the right of the
Indemnified Party to be indemnified hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such delay. At the Indemnifying Party’s cost: (i) the Indemnifying Party may immediately take control of the defense of such claim
and engage attorneys acceptable to the Indemnified Party to defend such claim; and (ii) the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party (and its attorneys) in the defense of such claim. The Indemnified Party may, at its own
cost, participate (through its attorneys or otherwise) in such defense. No settlement of a claim that involves a remedy other than the payment of money by the Indemnifying Party shall be entered into without the consent of the Indemnified Party. If
the Indemnifying Party does not assume control over the defense of a claim as provided in this Section 14.1(c), the Indemnified Party may engage attorneys acceptable to the Indemnifying Party and defend the claim in such manner as it may deem
appropriate, at the cost of the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that in any such event, the Indemnified Party shall not, without the Indemnifying Party’s consent (which it may withhold in its
sole discretion), enter into a settlement regarding the applicable claim that requires the Indemnifying Party to admit fault or perform any action other than the payment of money.  

(d) Contribution. If any claim (whether brought against one or both Parties) entitles each Party to indemnification from the other under
Section 14.1(a) or Section 14.1(b), then the Parties shall allocate between themselves any loss, liability or costs arising out of or relating to such claim according to each Party’s relative share of liability. Contributory
negligence, or any analogous principle, shall not be a defense to any allocation of loss, liability or costs pursuant to this Section 14.1(d). 

14.2 DAMAGES AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. 

(a) Direct Damages. Each of the Parties shall be liable to the other for any direct damages arising out of or relating to its performance or
failure to perform under this Agreement. 
 (b) Consequential Damages. Neither Party shall be liable to the other Party for, nor shall the
measure of damages include, any special, indirect, incidental, consequential or exemplary damages (including lost profits, lost savings, loss of reputation, and loss of opportunity included in such damages) arising out of or relating to its
performance or failure to perform under this Agreement; provided, however, that (i) a Party shall be liable to the other Party for any consequential damages that result directly from willful misconduct or gross negligence of the
liable Party, and (ii) to the extent a Party is nonetheless determined to be entitled to recover such special, indirect, incidental, consequential or exemplary damages, such damages may be recovered only to the extent the Party claiming such
damages has actually paid amounts to a third party as part of a judgment or settlement. 

  
 17 

 (c) No Limitation on Obligation to Indemnify. The limitations or exculpations of liability set
forth in Section 14.2(b) shall not apply with respect to an Indemnifying Party’s obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party as set out in Section 14.1. 

(d) Liability relating to Complementary Service Delivery. Liability between the Parties with respect to each Party’s performance of the
applicable Complementary Services relating to an Eligible Project, including knock-for-knock liability for oilfield operations, shall be set forth the subcontract to be executed between the Primary Bidding Party and the Secondary Bidding Party with
respect to the applicable Eligible Project. 
  

	SECTION 15	ADDITIONAL SUPPORT 

 15.1 If any potential Eligible Project will require the
prequalification of either or both Parties as a result of the jurisdiction in which such Eligible Project is to be performed, each Party agrees to consider in good faith opportunities for each Party to use commercially reasonable efforts to assist
the other Party in obtaining the necessary prequalification in the applicable jurisdiction so as to permit participation in such Eligible Project and future Eligible Projects, including, in each case as appropriate in the circumstances and as agreed
by the Parties, through the utilization of such Party’s existing relationships, knowledge of the prequalification process, oral or written support in favor of such Party (as requested by the applicable prequalification agency) and related
actions. 
  

	SECTION 16	OTHER PROVISIONS 

 16.1 This Agreement and the ancillary documents referenced herein
contain the entire agreement among the Parties and their Affiliates with respect to their relationship as set forth in this Agreement, and supersede all prior agreements and understandings of the Parties in this matter. 

16.2 Should one or more provisions of this Agreement be held invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, then (a) the application of such
provision in circumstances other than those as to which it is determined to be invalid, unlawful, void or unenforceable, shall not be impaired or otherwise affected, and (b) the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions
of this Agreement shall not be impaired or otherwise affected and shall be construed to give effect to the Parties’ intent consistent with the spirit of the affected provisions in consideration of the overall agreement between the Parties, and
applicable laws. 
 16.3 No delay on the part of a Party in exercising any rights hereunder shall operate as a waiver of such rights, except
that with respect to a Party’s failure to respond, or delay in responding within five business days, regarding participation in, and in the provision of information relating to, an Eligible Project (or potential Eligible Project), such failure
or delay shall result in the irrevocable waiver of such Party’s rights as a Secondary Bidding Party with respect to such Eligible Project. 

16.4 This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which taken together shall
constitute one and the same instrument. Each Party shall be entitled to rely on the delivery of executed facsimile copies of counterpart execution pages of this Agreement. 

  
 18 

 16.5 If there is any inconsistency or conflict between this Agreement and the relevant contracts
with third parties or any other documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail as between the Parties. The Parties hereby agree to exercise their rights and obligations under any document solely on a basis consistent with this Agreement.

 16.6 The Company shall not agree (and shall cause C&J Energy Services not to agree) to any amendment or modification to the Mexico
Cooperation Agreement (as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto) that would extend or delay the expiration date of the Mexico Cooperation Agreement, or directly impair the ability of Navy to perform Drilling Services in Mexico.
