EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

 

THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
(this “Agreement”) is effective of the 10th day of July, 2015, by and between MMA Capital Management,
LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Employer”) and David C. Bjarnason (“Employee”).

 

WHEREAS, Employer is
engaged in the business of providing real estate finance services, with a particular emphasis on the multi-family housing segment;

 

WHEREAS, Employee has
particular skill and experience as Chief Financial Officer for businesses of the type in which the Employer primarily engages;
and

 

WHEREAS, Employer and
Employee desire to enter into an employment relationship, the terms of which are to be set forth in this Agreement.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the foregoing, the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, and for other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Employer and Employee hereby agree as follows:

 

1.           Employment
and Duties. Employer agrees to hire Employee, and Employee agrees to be employed by Employer, initially as Executive Vice President
and subsequently as Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) effective the day after the filing of the Employer’s second
quarter 10-Q, on the terms and conditions provided in this Agreement. Employee shall perform the duties and responsibilities reasonably
determined from time to time by the Board of Directors (“Board”) of the Employer consistent with the types of duties
and responsibilities typically performed by a person serving as CFO of businesses similar to that of Employer. Employee agrees
to devote Employee’s best efforts and full time attention and skill in performing the duties of this position. Provided that
such activity shall not violate any provision of this Agreement (including the noncompetition provisions of Section 8 below)
or materially interfere with his/her performance of Employee’s duties hereunder, nothing herein shall prohibit Employee (a)
from engaging in charitable, civic, fraternal or trade group activities, or (b) from investing in other non-competitive entities
or business ventures.

 

2.           Compensation.
As compensation for performing the services required by this Agreement, and during the term of this Agreement, Employee shall be
compensated as follows:

 

(a)          Base
Compensation. Employer shall pay to Employee a salary (“Base Compensation”) at the annual rate of $400,000
for calendar years 2015 and 2016, $440,000 for calendar year 2017 and $480,000 for calendar year 2018, payable in accordance with
the general policies and procedures of Employer for payment of salaries to executive personnel in substantially equal installments,
subject to withholding for applicable federal, state and local taxes. Increases in Base Compensation, if any, shall be determined
by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Board”). During the term of this Agreement, Employee’s
annual Base Compensation shall not be reduced below the initial Base Compensation set forth above.

 

(b)          Incentive
Compensation. In addition to Employee’s Base Compensation, Employee shall be eligible to receive additional compensation
(“Incentive Compensation”). The Employee’s Incentive Compensation for calendar year 2015 will be $200,000 and
in subsequent calendar years will be up to 70 percent of Base Compensation, pursuant to this Agreement payable in cash, shares,
options or otherwise as determined by the Compensation Committee based on individual and company performance.

 

3.           Employee
Benefits. During the Term of this Agreement, Employee and his/her eligible dependents shall have the right to participate in
any retirement, pension, insurance, health or other benefit plan or program adopted by Employer (or in which Employer participates)
to the same extent as any other officer of the Employer, subject, in the case of a plan or program, to all of the terms and conditions
thereof, and to any limitations imposed by law.

 

4.           Vacation,
Sickness and Leaves of Absence. Employee shall be entitled to the normal and customary amount of paid vacation provided to
officers of Employer, but in any event not more than five (5) weeks paid vacation during each fiscal year. Employee shall provide
Employer with reasonable notice of anticipated vacation dates. Any vacation days not taken in a given year shall not accrue and
carryover from year to year. In addition, Employee shall be entitled to such sick leave and holidays, with pay, as Employer provides
to other officers. Unused sick leave shall not be carried forward or compensated upon termination of employment.

 

    	 

    	 

    

  

5.           Expenses.
Employee shall be entitled to receive, within a reasonable period of time after Employee has delivered to Employer an itemized
statement thereof, and after presentation of such invoices or similar records as the Employer may reasonably require, reimbursement
for all necessary and reasonable expenses incurred by Employee in connection with the performance of his/her duties.

 

6.           Term.
The term of this Agreement shall be for three (3) years (the “Term”), commencing on August 3, 2015 (the “Effective
Date”) and ending on August 2, 2018. The term of this Agreement in effect at any given time is herein referred to as the
“Term”. Any termination of this Agreement shall be subject to Section 7 below.

 

7.           Termination
and Termination Benefits.

 

(a)          Termination
by Employer.

 

(i)          Without
Cause. Employer may terminate this Agreement and Employee’s employment at any time upon ninety (90) days prior written
notice to Employee, during which period Employer shall have the option to require Employee to continue to perform his duties under
this Agreement. Employee shall be paid (at a time consistent with the payment terms for compensation under this Agreement) his
Base Compensation and all other benefits to which he is entitled under this Agreement up through the effective date of termination.
In addition, Employee shall become fully vested in any and all outstanding or deferred share awards, share options or other type
of award made to Employee but not yet vested at the time of such termination under the Employer’s Share Incentive Plans.

 

(ii)         With
Cause. Employer may terminate this Agreement with “Cause” upon written notice to Employee. In such event, Employee
shall be paid (at a time consistent with the payment terms for compensation under this Agreement) his/her Base Compensation and
all other benefits to which he/she is entitled under this Agreement up through the effective date of termination. For purposes
of this Section, termination for “Cause” shall mean (A) acts or omissions by the Employee with respect to the Employer
which constitute intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; (B) receipt by the Employee, in knowing violation of the
law, of more than de minimis money, property or services from the Employer or from another person dealing with Employer
in violation of law or this Agreement, provided, however that inadvertent expense account errors shall not constitute a violation
of this clause, (C) breach by Employee of the noncompetition provisions of this Agreement, (D) breach by the Employee of his/her
duty of loyalty to the Employer as set forth in the policy statements of Employer, (E) gross negligence by the Employee in the
performance of his/her duties, (F) repeated failure by Employee to perform services that have been reasonably requested of him
by the Board and that are ordinarily within the scope of Employee’s duties, (G) unappealable conviction of a crime (other
than traffic violations). Before terminating Employee’s employment for Cause under clauses (A) – (G) above, Employer
will specify in writing to Employee the nature of the act, omission, refusal or failure that it deems to constitute Cause.

 

(iii)        Disability.
If due to illness, physical or mental disability, or other incapacity, Employee shall fail to perform the duties required by this
Agreement, Employer may terminate this Agreement upon 30 days written notice to Employee. In such event, Employee shall be paid
(at a time consistent with the payment terms for compensation under this Agreement) his Base Compensation and receive all benefits
owing to him under this Agreement through the effective date of termination. In addition, Employee shall become fully vested in
any and all outstanding restricted or deferred share awards, share options or other type of award made to Employee, but not yet
vested at the time of such termination under the Employer’s Share Incentive Plans. Employee shall be considered disabled
under this paragraph if he is unable to work due to disability for a total of 120 or more business days during any 12-month period.
Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to limit Employee’s rights to the benefits of any disability insurance policy
provided by Employer and this Section shall not be construed as varying the terms of any such policy in any manner adverse to Employee.

 

(iv)        Change
in Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any termination of Employee during the first six (6) months following a Change in
Control shall be deemed to be without Cause for all purposes under this Agreement, unless the reason for such termination is a
violation of Section 7(a)(ii)(A), (B), (C) or (G). As used herein, Change in Control shall have the meaning given such term in
the MMA Capital Management, LLC 2010 Share Incentive Plan; provided, however, that this Section 7(a)(iv) shall not apply to any
Change in Control approved by the Board of Directors of the Company as constituted immediately prior to the date such Change in
Control occurs, or is deemed to occur (whichever is earlier).

 

    	 

    	 

    

  

(b)          Termination
by Employee. Employee may terminate this Agreement for good reason upon 30 days prior written notice to Employer. In such event,
Employee shall be paid (at a time consistent with the payment terms for compensation under this Agreement) his Base Compensation
and shall receive all benefits through the date of termination. Employee shall become fully vested in any and all outstanding restricted
or deferred share awards, share options or other type of award made to Employee, but not yet vested at the time of such termination
under the Employer’s Share Incentive Plans. Employee shall have “good reason” to terminate his/her employment
if (i) Employee’s Base Compensation, as in effect at any given time, shall be reduced without Employee’s consent, (ii)
Employer shall fail to provide any of the material payments or benefits provided for under this Agreement; (iii) Employer shall
require Employee to take any action which would be a violation of federal, state or local criminal law. Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of the definition of “good reason”, (i) good reason shall not be deemed to exist unless the Employee provides
notice of the good reason event or condition within 60 days of the occurrence of such event or condition; and (ii) if there exists
(without regard to this clause (ii)) an event or condition that constitutes good reason, the Employer shall have 30 days from the
date that notice of such a termination is given to cure such event or condition and, if the Employer does so, such event or condition
shall not constitute good reason under the Agreement.

 

(c)          Termination
Compensation for Termination Without Cause or for Good Reason. In the event of a termination of this Agreement prior to the
end of the Term, pursuant to Section 7(a)(i), 7(a)(iii) or 7(b), Employer, in addition to the Base Compensation and benefits (if
any) payable as provided in such sections, shall pay to Employee additional compensation (“Termination Compensation”)
of $650,000. Subject to Section 10(f), Termination Compensation shall be paid in four equal quarterly payments beginning on the
first day of the first calendar month following the termination date. In addition, Employee shall become fully vested in any and
all outstanding deferred share awards, share options or any other type of award made to Employee.

 

(d)          Death
Benefit. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate on the date of Employee’s
death. In such event, Employee’s estate shall be paid $500,000. To the extent of any insurance carried by Employer on Employee’s
life, the death benefit shall be payable in a lump sum within five (5) business days of Employer’s receipt of the insurance
proceeds; twenty-five percent (25%) of any portion of the death benefit not covered by insurance shall be paid immediately upon
the Employee’s death, but in no event later than 90 days following the date of such death, and the remaining seventy-five
percent (75%) of the Death Benefit shall be paid in equal installments payable on the first day of each calendar quarter following
Employee’s death. Employer shall carry as much life insurance on Employee’s life as the Board may from time to time
determine. In addition, upon Employee’s death, all outstanding restricted or deferred share awards, share options or other
type of award made to Employee, but not yet vested at the time of death under the Employer’s Share Incentive Plans shall
be considered vested and paid out to Employee’s estate.

 

8.           Covenant
Not to Compete.

 

(a)          Noncompetition.
From and after the Effective Date and continuing for the longer of (i) twelve (12) months following the expiration or termination
of this Agreement or (ii) the remainder of the Term of this Agreement, Employee shall not without the prior written consent of
the Board (w) become employed by, or undertake to work for, directly or indirectly, whether as an advisor, principal, agent, partner,
officer, director, employee, shareholder, associate or consultant of or to, any person, partnership, corporation or other business
entity which is in the business of investing in or providing Asset Management services on debt and equity investments in multifamily
real estate, (x) solicit any employee of Employer to change employment or (y) solicit any client, customer or investor of Employer
or any of its subsidiaries which closed (in any capacity) a transaction with Employer or any of its subsidiaries during the thirty-six
(36) months preceding Employee’s termination, or (z) disclose proprietary or confidential information of the Employer or
its subsidiaries, including without limitation, tax, deal structuring, pricing, customer, client, revenue, expense, or other similar
information; provided, however, if Employer terminates Employee without cause under Section 7(a)(i) or as a result of a disability
under Section 7(b), clause (w) of this paragraph (a) shall not apply.

 

(b)          Reasonable
Restrictions. Employee acknowledges that the restrictions of subparagraph (a) above are reasonable, fair and equitable in scope,
term and duration, are necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of Employer, and are a material inducement to Employer
to enter into this Agreement. Employer and Employee both agree that in the event a court shall determine any portion of the restrictions
in subparagraph (a) are not reasonable, the court may change such restrictions, including without limitation the geographical restrictions
and the duration restrictions, to reflect a restriction which the court will enforce as reasonable.

 

(c)          Specific
Performance. Employee acknowledges that the obligations undertaken by him/her pursuant to this Agreement are unique and that
if Employee shall fail to abide by any of the restrictions set forth in subparagraph (a), Employer will suffer harm for which there
is no adequate remedy at law. Employee therefore confirms that Employer shall have the right, in the event of a violation of subparagraph
(a), to injunctive relief to enforce the terms of this Section 8 in addition to any other remedies available at law or in
equity.

 

    	 

    	 

    

  

9.           Indemnification
and Liability Insurance. Employer hereby agrees to defend, indemnify and hold Employee harmless, to the maximum extent allowed
by law, from any and all liability for acts or omissions of Employee performed in the course of Employee’s employment (or
reasonably believed by Employee to be within the scope of his/her employment). Employer shall at all times carry Director and Officer
liability insurance in commercially reasonable amounts, but in any event not less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000).

 

10.         Miscellaneous.

 

(a)          Complete
Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the matters set forth herein and
supersedes all prior understandings and agreements between the parties as to such matters. No amendments or modifications shall
be binding unless set forth in writing and signed by both parties.

 

(b)          Successors
and Assigns. Neither party may assign its rights or interest under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the
other party, except that Employer’s interest in this Agreement may be assigned to a successor by operation of law or to a
purchaser purchasing substantially all of Employer’s business, and Employee’s benefits under this Agreement may be
assigned by operation of law to Employee’s heirs, devisees and personal representatives. This Agreement shall be binding
upon and shall inure to the benefit of each of the parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns.

 

(c)          Severability.
Each provision of this Agreement is severable, such that if any part of this Agreement shall be deemed invalid or unenforceable,
the balance of this Agreement shall be enforced so as to give effect as to the intent of the parties.

 

(d)          Representations
of Employer. Employer represents and warrants to Employee that it has the requisite limited liability company power to enter
into this Agreement and perform the terms hereof and that the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement have been duly
authorized by all appropriate company action.

 

(e)          Construction.
This Agreement shall be governed in all respects by the internal laws of the State of Maryland (excluding reference to principles
of conflicts of law). As used herein, the singular shall include the plural, the plural shall include the singular, and the use
of any pronoun shall be construed to refer to the masculine, feminine or neuter, all as the context may require.

 

(f)          Compliance
with Section 409A. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the Employee shall not be entitled
to any payment pursuant to this Agreement prior to the earliest date permitted under Section 409A of the Code. To the extent that
any severance amount payable in this Agreement constitutes deferred compensation that is subject to Section 409A of the Code, payments
shall commence on the first day of the first calendar month following the Employee’s “Separation form Service”,
as defined below. To the extent such payments are required to be delayed six months pursuant to the special rules of Section 409A
of the Code related to “specified employees,” each affected payment shall be delayed until six months after the Employee’s
termination of employment, with the first such payment being a lump sum equal to the aggregate payments the Employee would have
received during such six-month period if no payment delay had been imposed. Any such delayed payments or distributions shall be
paid to the Employee on the first business day of the seventh month following the Employee’s termination of employment. A
“Separation from Service” means an anticipated permanent reduction in the level of services performed by the Employee
to 20% or less of the average level of services performed by the Employee over the immediately preceding 36 month period (or the
full period during which the Employee performed services for the Employer, if that is less than 36 months) (treating all members
of the controlled group of corporations or group of trades or business under common control with the Employer as a single employer
for this purpose).

 

(g)          Other
Awards, Options or Equity Based Compensation. To the extent Employee shall become vested in outstanding deferred share awards,
options or other equity-based compensation in connection with certain terminations of employment, unless otherwise specified in
this Agreement, such awards shall remain payable or exercisable under the terms of the applicable award agreement.

 

(h)          Notices.
All notices required or permitted under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given on the date sent if delivered
by hand or by facsimile, and on the next business day if sent by overnight courier or by United States mail, postage prepaid, to
each party at the following address (or at such other address as a party may specify by notice under this section):

 ARTICLE III. CONSIDERATION 

Section 3.01 Purchase Price. The consideration for the purchase, sale and assignment of the Assets by Seller to Buyer is
Buyer’s payment to Seller of the sum of ONE DOLLAR ($1) (the “Purchase Price”), as adjusted pursuant to Section 9.02 (the “Adjusted Purchase Price”) plus the assumption by Buyer of the Assumed Obligations.
The Adjusted Purchase Price shall be paid by Buyer to Seller at the Closing by means of the Seller applying the Earnest Money. 

Section 3.02 Earnest Money. If Closing occurs, the Earnest Money shall be disbursed to Seller as the Purchase Price, otherwise the
Earnest Money shall be disbursed pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If not returned previously pursuant to the terms of the June 19, 2015 Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Prior Deposit shall be remitted to the Buyer
at Closing. 
 Section 3.03 Asset Allocated Values. 

(a) Buyer and Seller agree that the unadjusted Purchase Price is allocated among the Assets in the amounts set forth in Exhibit
A-Part 2 (the “Purchase Price Allocation”). The “Allocated Value” for any Asset equals the portion of the Purchase Price allocated to such Asset on Exhibit A-Part 2 and such Allocated Value shall be used in
calculating adjustments to the Purchase Price as provided herein. Buyer and Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to update the Purchase Price Allocation in a manner consistent with the prior Purchase Price Allocation following any
adjustment to the Purchase Price pursuant to this Agreement. The Purchase Price Allocation is set forth for the sole purpose of determining purchase price adjustments pursuant to Section 9.02(b)(ii), below, and for no other reason. 

(b) Within 90 days, the Buyer shall deliver to Seller a statement (the “Tax Allocation Statement”) allocating,
for tax purposes, the Purchase Price. The Allocation Statement shall be subject to the approval of Seller, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Allocation Statement shall be reasonable and prepared in accordance with
Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. The parties to this Agreement hereby agree to (i) be bound by the Tax Allocation Statement after Seller shall have approved it in writing, (ii) act in
accordance with the Tax Allocation Statement in connection with the preparation, filing and audit of any tax return (including, without limitation, in the filing of IRS Form 8594 and any other corresponding tax forms), and (iii) take no
position inconsistent with the Tax Allocation Statement for any tax purpose (including, without limitation, in any audit, judicial or administrative proceeding). In the event that the Seller and the Buyer cannot agree to the Tax Allocation
Statement, the Tax Allocation Statement shall be submitted to a mutually agreeable arbitrator, whose determination shall be binding on all parties. The expenses of the arbitrator shall be borne equally by Seller and Buyer. 

 ARTICLE IV. CONSENTS; CASUALTIES 

Section 4.01 Consents to Assign. With respect to each Consent set forth on Schedule 5.01(c), Seller shall send to the holder
of each such Consent a notice in material compliance with the contractual provisions applicable to such Consent seeking such holder’s consent as required. 

(a) To the extent that a Consent is required for the assumption and assignment of any Contract or Lease, if Seller fails to
obtain a Consent set forth on Schedule 5.01(c) prior to Closing and the failure to obtain such Consent (i) could, after giving effect to the operation of applicable Law, including the Bankruptcy Code, cause (A) the assignment of the
Lease or Well affected thereby to Buyer to be void under the express terms thereof or (B) the termination of a Lease under the express terms thereof, (ii) covers a “Field” with an Allocated Value set forth on Exhibit A –
Part 3 in excess of FIFTY THOUSAND AND NO/100 Dollars ($50,000.00) (the “Consent Threshold”) and (iii) the aggregate Allocated Value with respect to all such un-obtained Consents satisfying clauses (i) and
(ii) hereof, exceeds ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND AND NO/100 Dollars ($100,000.00) (the “Consent Deductible”), then the Asset (or portion thereof) affected by such un-obtained Consent (each an “Un-obtained Consent”)
shall be excluded from the Assets to be assigned to Buyer at Closing, and the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the Allocated Value of such Asset (or portion thereof) so excluded and Buyer shall deposit in the Escrow Account an amount equal to such
Allocated Value (such amount, the “Consent Deposit Amount”). In the event that an Un-obtained Consent that was not obtained prior to Closing is obtained within thirty (30) days following Closing, then, within ten (10) days
after such Consent is obtained (x) Buyer shall purchase the Asset (or portion thereof) that was so excluded as a result of such Un-obtained Consent and instruct the Escrow Agent to disburse to Seller an amount equal to the Allocated Value with
respect to the Asset (or portion thereof) so excluded deposited in the Escrow Account (together with all interest earned thereon) and (y) Seller shall assign to Buyer the Asset (or portion thereof) so excluded at Closing pursuant to an
instrument in a form substantially similar to the Assignments or otherwise mutually acceptable to Seller and Buyer. 
 (b)
If, during the Interim Period, any portion of the Assets is destroyed by fire or other casualty or is taken in condemnation or under right of eminent domain, Buyer shall nevertheless be required to consummate the Closing, and Seller shall elect (in
its sole discretion) by written notice to Buyer prior to Closing either (i) to cause the Assets affected by such casualty or taking to be repaired or restored to at least its condition prior to such casualty or taking, at Seller’s sole
cost, as promptly as reasonably practicable (which work may extend after the Closing Date) or (ii) at Closing, to pay to Buyer all sums paid or payable to Seller by Third Parties by reason of such casualty or taking insofar as with respect to
the Assets and shall assign, transfer and set over to Buyer or subrogate Buyer to all of Seller’s right, title and interest (if any) in insurance claims, unpaid awards and other rights against Third Parties arising out of such casualty or
taking insofar as with respect to the Assets; provided, however, that in the case of (ii), Seller shall reserve and retain (and Buyer shall assign to Seller) all rights, title, interests and claims against Third Parties for the
recovery of Seller’s costs and expenses incurred prior to the Closing Date in pursuing or asserting any such insurance claims or other rights against Third Parties or in defending or asserting rights in such condemnation or eminent domain
action with respect to the Assets. In the case of (i), Seller shall retain all rights to insurance, condemnation awards and other claims against Third Parties with respect to the casualty or taking except to the extent the Parties otherwise agree in
writing. 

 (c) Prior to Closing and during the thirty (30) day period following
Closing, Seller and Buyer shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all Consents listed on Schedule 5.01(c), to the extent required for assumption and assignment of the Contracts listed thereunder notwithstanding the
provisions of Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code. Subject to the foregoing, Buyer agrees to provide Seller with any information or documentation that may be reasonably requested by Seller and/or the Third Party holder(s) of such Consents in
order to facilitate the process of obtaining such Consents. 
 (d) If, following the thirty (30) day period following
Closing, Seller fails to obtain a Consent set forth on Schedule 5.01(c), Seller or Buyer may instruct to the Debtor to disburse to Buyer an amount equal to the Allocated Value with respect to the Asset (or portion thereof) attributable to
such Consent deposited in the segregated holding account for good faith deposits (together with all interest earned thereon), and such Asset (or portion thereof) shall be retained by Seller. 

Section 4.02 Casualty or Condemnation Loss. 

(a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, from and after the Effective Time, subject to the occurrence of Closing,
Buyer shall assume all risk of loss with respect to production of Hydrocarbons through normal depletion (including watering out of any well, collapsed casing or sand infiltration of any well) and the depreciation of personal property due to ordinary
wear and tear, in each case, with respect to the Assets. 
 (b) If, during the Interim Period, any portion of the Assets is
destroyed by fire or other casualty or is taken in condemnation or under right of eminent domain, Buyer shall nevertheless be required to consummate the Closing, and Seller shall elect (in its sole discretion) by written notice to Buyer prior to
Closing either (i) to cause the Assets affected by such casualty or taking to be repaired or restored to at least its condition prior to such casualty or taking, at Seller’s sole cost, as promptly as reasonably practicable (which work may
extend after the Closing Date) or (ii) at Closing, to pay to Buyer all sums paid or payable to Seller by Third Parties by reason of such casualty or taking insofar as with respect to the Assets and shall assign, transfer and set over to Buyer
or subrogate Buyer to all of Seller’s right, title and interest (if any) in insurance claims, unpaid awards and other rights against Third Parties (excluding any Liabilities, other than insurance claims, of or against any Seller Indemnitees)
arising out of such casualty or taking insofar as with respect to the Assets; provided, however, that in the case of (ii), Seller shall reserve and retain (and Buyer shall assign to Seller) all rights, title, interests and claims
against Third Parties for the recovery of Seller’s costs and expenses incurred prior to the Closing Date in pursuing or asserting any such insurance claims or other rights against Third Parties or in defending or asserting rights in such
condemnation or eminent domain action with respect to the Assets. In the case of (i), Seller shall retain all rights to insurance, condemnation awards and other claims against Third Parties with respect to the casualty or taking except to the extent
the Parties otherwise agree in writing. 
 (c) If any action for condemnation or taking under right of eminent domain is
pending or threatened with respect to any Asset or portion thereof after the date of this Agreement, but no taking of such Asset or portion thereof occurs prior to the Closing Date, Buyer shall nevertheless be required to close and Seller, at
Closing, shall assign, transfer and set over to Buyer or subrogate Buyer to all of Seller’s right, title and interest (if any) in such condemnation or eminent domain action, including any future awards therein, insofar as they are attributable
to the Assets threatened to be taken, except that Seller shall reserve and retain (and Buyer shall assign to Seller) all rights, titles, interests and claims against Third Parties for the recovery of Seller’s costs and expenses incurred prior
to the Closing in defending or asserting rights in such action with respect to the Assets.

Bankruptcy Court or as otherwise permitted by the orders of the Bankruptcy Court, Seller shall not, without Buyer’s prior consent, to be granted in its sole discretion, (a) propose, under any joint operating agreement, any operation with
respect to the Assets reasonably expected to cost Seller in excess of TEN THOUSAND AND NO/100 Dollars ($10,000.00); (b) consent to any operation with respect to the Assets reasonably expected to cost Seller in excess of TEN THOUSAND AND NO/100
Dollars ($10,000.00) that is proposed by any Third Party, or elect not to participate in any operation with respect to the Assets that is proposed by any Third Party; (c) enter into any contract that would constitute a Material Contract
hereunder; except in each case of subsections (a) through (c) above, where such operation is (i) in connection with an AFE listed on Schedule 5.01(n), (ii) in response to an emergency, or (iii) necessary to maintain or
prevent forfeiture of a Lease or other Property; (d) reduce or terminate (or cause to be reduced or terminated) any insurance coverage now held in connection with the Assets; (e) change the operations in the field with respect to any Well
or Lease, without the Buyer’s prior consent, to be granted in its sole discretion; or (f) except for any Liens that 

 
would not attach to or encumber the Assets following Closing, mortgage or pledge or create or suffer to exist any encumbrance on any of the Assets. Buyer acknowledges that Seller owns undivided
interests in certain of the Properties comprising the Assets that it may not be the operator thereof, and Buyer agrees that the acts or omissions of the other working interests owners (including the operators) who are not Seller or Affiliates of
Seller shall not constitute a breach of the provisions of this Section 6.03, nor shall any action required by a vote of working interest owners constitute such a breach so long as Seller has voted its interest in a manner that complies with the
provisions of this Section 6.03. 
 Section 6.04 Governmental and Other Bonds; Operator. Buyer acknowledges that none of
the bonds, letters of credit and guarantees, if any, posted by Seller or its Affiliates and relating to the Assets, are transferable or are to be transferred to Buyer. On or before the Closing Date, Buyer shall obtain, or cause to be obtained in the
name of Buyer or its designee, replacements for all such bonds, letters of credit and guarantees to the extent such replacements are necessary to permit the cancellation of the bonds, letters of credit and guarantees posted by Seller and/or its
Affiliates. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the release of cash from escrow (the “Bond Collateral Assets”) is subject to the consent of Chevron U.S.A., Inc, (“Chevron”) and EnerVest Energy, L.P.
(“EnerVest”), which consent was set forth on the record at the Auction, as described in Section 8.02(e), below. In addition, at or prior to Closing, Buyer shall deliver to Seller evidence of (a) the posting of bonds
or other security with all applicable Governmental Authorities meeting the requirements of such authorities for Buyer to own and, where appropriate, operate, the Assets and (b) Buyer’s qualification to own and operate the Assets in the
jurisdictions where the Assets are located. 
 Section 6.05 Amendment of Schedules. During the Interim Period, Seller or Buyer,
as the case may be, may correct or supplement any Schedule hereto by furnishing such corrected or supplemented Schedule to Buyer (and such corrected or supplemented information shall be deemed to amend this Agreement for all purposes); provided,
however, any corrected or supplemented information set forth on such corrected or supplemented Schedule shall be disregarded (a) in determining whether the condition set forth in Section 8.02(a) has been satisfied to the extent and only to
the extent that such corrected or supplemented information has a material adverse effect on the Properties and (b) to the extent such corrected or supplemented information reduces or increases the Allocated Value of a Well, on a Well by Well
basis, by an amount greater than or equal to the Consent Threshold. Further, at any time prior to Closing, Buyer may add or subtract any agreement, lease, contract or otherwise (other than a Lease) to or from the Exhibit A – Part 5; provided,
however, that the addition of an agreement, lease, contract or otherwise must be noticed in sufficient time prior to the Closing to permit Seller to assume and assign the same at Closing. Any such agreement deleted from the final Exhibit A –
Part 5 shall not be deemed a Contract. Any such agreement added to Exhibit A – Part 5 shall be deemed a Contract. 

Section 6.06 Bankruptcy Actions. Buyer covenants and agrees that it shall cooperate with Seller in connection with furnishing
information or documents to Seller to satisfy the requirements of adequate assurance of future performance under Section 365(f)(2)(B) of the Bankruptcy Code.

subject to the conditions of this Agreement, each of Seller and Buyer shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Closing to occur as promptly as practicable, and neither Party shall take any action to prevent or delay, or fail to take any
action in order to prevent or delay, the Closing from occurring as promptly as practicable. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Parties shall (and shall cause their respective directors, officers and subsidiaries, and use their
reasonable best efforts to cause their respective Affiliates, employees, agents, attorneys, accountants and representatives, to) consult and cooperate with and provide reasonable assistance to each other and otherwise use reasonable best efforts in
connection with (a) obtaining all necessary consents, licenses, qualifications or other permission or action by, and giving all necessary notices to and making all 

 
necessary filings with and applications and submissions to, any Governmental Authority or other Person with respect to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and
(b) in general, consummating and making effective the transactions contemplated hereby. 
 ARTICLE VII. BANKRUPTCY MATTERS 

Section 7.01 Auction and Bidding. 

(a) Auction. Consummation of the transactions provided for herein is subject to the determination by Seller that this
Agreement is the highest or otherwise best offer from a Qualified Bidder for the Assets and the assumption of the Assumed Obligations. In connection with this determination, Seller conducted an auction (the “Auction”) of its assets
in accordance with Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code and the Bidding Procedures, as may be modified by the Bidding Procedures Order, and determined that the Buyer was the Qualified Bidder making the highest and best offer for the Assets. 

(b) Bidding. Seller offered the Assets for sale in accordance with the Bidding Procedures and solicited Bids from
Qualified Bidders, and conducted the Auction in accordance with the Bidding Procedures and the Bidding Procedures Order. 

Section 7.02 Certain Contract Matters. 

(a) Leases. The Leases listed on Exhibit A-Part 1 are to be transferred to Buyer as part of the sale of the
Assets. To the extent any Lease constitutes an executory contract or unexpired lease of real property under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, such Lease shall be assumed by Seller and assigned by Seller to Buyer pursuant to Section 365
of the Bankruptcy Code, and Buyer shall pay the Contract Cure Amounts in connection with such assumption and assignment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Auction is held, Buyer shall have the right prior to or during the Auction to remove any
Lease from Exhibit A – Part 1. Should the Buyer remove any such Lease, such Lease shall be deemed not to be assumed by the Seller and assigned to the Buyer under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code. 

(b) Contracts. Seller shall assign to Buyer, and Buyer shall assume, the Contracts other than Leases under
Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code pursuant to the Sale Order. Buyer shall pay the Contract Cure Amounts in connection with the assumption and assignment of the Contracts. To the extent any Contract does not constitute an executory contract
subject to assumption and assignment under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, then the rights and obligations under such Contracts shall be transferred to Buyer as part of the sale of the Assets with such rights and obligations (including all
Contract Cure Amounts) being expressly assumed by Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall have the right prior to the Closing Date to remove any Contract other than Leases from Exhibit A – Part 5. Should the Buyer remove any such
Contract, such Contract shall be deemed not to be assumed by the Seller and assigned to the Buyer under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code. 

Section 7.03 Appeal. In the event the Bidding Procedures Order or the Sale Order shall be appealed, Seller and Buyer shall use
reasonable best efforts to defend such appeal. In no event will Buyer be required to extend any such efforts past the Outside Date.

set forth in the Transition Services Agreement. Other than as set forth in the Transition Services Agreement, it is expressly understood and agreed that neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates shall be obligated to continue operating any of the
Assets, or to provide any support services relating thereto, upon and after the Closing and Buyer hereby assumes full responsibility for operating (or causing the operation of) all Assets upon and after the Closing. Seller and Buyer shall execute,
and Buyer shall promptly file, change of operator regulatory forms as may be required with the appropriate Governmental Authority. Seller agrees to reasonably cooperate (without any obligation to expend money) with Buyer following Closing to assist
Buyer in its efforts to be named successor operator with respect to the Assets. 
 Section 10.02 Files. Seller shall make the
Files available for pickup by Buyer within ten (10) Business Days after the Closing and Buyer shall pick up such Files on such date or within five (5) Business Days thereafter.

other Party may reasonably request to convey and deliver the Assets to Buyer in the manner contemplated by this Agreement. After the Closing, the Parties will cooperate to have all proceeds received attributable to the Assets paid to the proper
Party hereunder and to have all expenditures to be made with respect to the Assets made by the proper Party hereunder. 

 Section 10.05 Document Retention. 

(a) Inspection. Subject to the provisions of Section 10.05, Buyer agrees, and will cause its respective
assigns to agree, that the Files shall be open for inspection by representatives of Seller at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice during regular business hours for a period of four (4) years following the Closing Date (or for such

(b) Destruction. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, for a period of four (4) years after the Closing
Date (or for such longer period as may be required by Law or by Governmental Authorities), Buyer shall not, and shall cause its respective assigns to agree that they shall not, destroy or give up possession of any original or final copy of the Files
without first offering Seller the opportunity, at Seller’s expense (without any payment to Buyer), to obtain such original or final copy or a copy thereof.

ARTICLE XI. TERMINATION 

Section 11.01 Right of Termination. This Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby will automatically be terminated prior
to the Closing upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the June 19, 2015 Purchase and Sale Agreement as the Backup Successful Bid. Additionally, this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby may be completely
terminated at any time at or prior to the Closing: 
 (a) by mutual written consent of the Parties; 

(b) by Seller, by written notice to Buyer, at Seller’s option, if any of the conditions set forth in
Section 8.01 or Section 8.03 is not satisfied and is incapable of being satisfied at or prior to the Outside Date; 

(c) by Buyer, by written notice to Seller, at Buyer’s option, if any of the conditions set forth in
Section 8.02 or Section 8.03 is not satisfied and is incapable of being satisfied at or prior to the Outside Date; 

 (d) by either Party, by written notice to the other, if the sum of all
Un-obtained Consents exceeding the Consent Threshold exceeds three percent (3%) of the Purchase Price; 
 (e) by either
Party, by written notice to the other Party, if the Bankruptcy Court enters a Final Order following Seller’s acceptance of a Bid for the Assets from a Successful Bidder from a Person other than Buyer (an “Alternative
Transaction”) or a Final Order confirming any plan of reorganization of Seller under the Bankruptcy Code which provides for a sale of the Assets (other than pursuant to this Agreement); 

(f) by either Party, by written notice to the other Party, if the Closing does not occur on or prior to the Outside Date;
provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 11.01(f) shall not be available to any Party whose breach of a representation or warranty in this Agreement or whose action or failure to act in breach of
this Agreement has been a principal cause or resulted in the failure of the Closing to occur on or before such date; or 

(g) by either Party, by written notice to the other Party, if the Bankruptcy Case is dismissed or converted to a case under
Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. 
 (h) By either Party, by written notice to the other Party, upon the occurrence of a
Material Adverse Effect as to the Assets. 
 Section 11.02 Effect of Termination; Earnest Money. 

(a) In the event that the Closing does not occur as a result of either Party exercising its right not to close pursuant to
Section 11.01, then, except for the provisions of Section 1.01, Section 1.02, Section 6.01, this Section 11.02, Article XIII and Article XIV (other than
Section 14.01, Section 14.02, and Section 14.03), this Agreement shall thereafter be null and void and neither Party shall have any rights or obligations under this Agreement. 

(b) If this Agreement terminates pursuant to Section 11.01(b) solely on account of the failure of one or more of
the conditions set forth in Section 8.01, then Seller shall retain the Earnest Money and all interest earned thereon. In such event, the delivery of the Earnest Money to Seller shall constitute liquidated damages for any loss suffered by
Seller, and Buyer shall have no further liability to the Seller Indemnitees of any kind or character (except as provided under Section 6.01). 

(c) If this Agreement is terminated for any reason other than as provided in Section 11.02(b), then within five
(5) days following such termination, Buyer or its agent shall immediately disburse the Earnest Money and all interest earned thereon to Buyer. In such event, the return of the Earnest Money to Buyer shall constitute liquidated damages for any
loss suffered by Buyer, and Seller shall have no further liability to the Buyer Affiliates of any kind or character. 
 (d)
THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT (i) EACH PARTY’S ACTUAL DAMAGES RESULTING FROM ANY SUCH TERMINATION UNDER THIS Article XI WOULD BE DIFFICULT, IF NOT IMPOSSIBLE TO CALCULATE, (ii) THE EARNEST MONEY IS A FAIR AND
REASONABLE ESTIMATE OF THE TERMINATING PARTY’S LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IN LIGHT OF THE UNCERTAINTIES IN CALCULATING THE ACTUAL DAMAGES THAT WOULD BE SUFFERED BY SUCH PARTY UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES SET FORTH IN THIS Article XI, AND (iii)

 
SUCH LIQUIDATED DAMAGES ARE NOT A PENALTY. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in no event shall either Party be entitled to receive any indirect, consequential, punitive
or exemplary damages, or damages for lost profits of any kind or loss of business opportunity. 
 (e) The parties agree that
irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements (as applicable) were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, and that damages at law may
be an inadequate remedy for the breach of any of the covenants, promises and agreements contained in this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements (as applicable), and, accordingly, any party hereto shall be entitled to injunctive relief to prevent any
such breach, and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements (as applicable), including without limitation specific performance of such covenants, promises or agreements or an order enjoining a
party from any threatened, or from the continuation of any actual, breach of the covenants, promises or agreements contained in this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements (as applicable). The rights set forth in this section shall be in
addition to any other rights which a party hereto may have at law or in equity pursuant to this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements (as applicable). 

(f) The parties hereby agree not to raise any objections to the availability of the equitable remedy of specific performance to
prevent or restrain breaches of this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements (as applicable) by the Buyer or the Seller, as applicable, and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements (as applicable)
to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the respective covenants and obligations of the Buyer or Seller, as applicable, under this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements (as applicable) all in accordance with the
terms of this section.

(c) all Liabilities relating in any way to the Assets (including Seller’s operation of such Assets at any time) arising
under Environmental Law or arising from, attributable to or alleged to be arising from or attributable to, a violation of or the failure to perform any obligation imposed by any Environmental Law or otherwise relating to the environmental condition
of the Assets; FOR AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, BUYER’S ASSUMPTION, AND AGREEMENT TO PAY, PERFORM OR DISCHARGE SUCH LIABILITIES APPLIES REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE LIABILITIES ARE THE RESULT OF: (i) STRICT
