 Ladies and
Gentlemen: 
 Halcón Resources Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), proposes to issue and
sell to Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, RBC Capital Markets, LLC, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Barclays Capital Inc., Goldman, Sachs & Co., BMO Capital Markets Corp., Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Capital One
Southcoast, Inc., Credit Agricole Securities (USA) Inc., Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., ING Financial Markets LLC, Natixis Securities Americas LLC, RBS Securities Inc., SunTrust Robinson Humphrey, Inc., Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, Comerica
Securities, Inc., KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc. and Scotia Capital (USA) Inc. (collectively, the “Initial Purchasers”), upon the terms set forth in a purchase agreement dated January 9, 2013 (the “Purchase
Agreement”), $600,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 8.875% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “Notes”) to be unconditionally guaranteed (the “Guarantees”) by certain of the Issuer’s subsidiaries who
are signatories hereto as guarantors (collectively, the “Guarantors” and together with the Issuer, the 

 
“Company”). The Notes will be issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of November 6, 2012 (the “Indenture”), by and among the Issuer, the Guarantors named
therein and U.S. Bank National Association (the “Trustee”). As an inducement to the Initial Purchasers, the Company agrees with the Initial Purchasers, for the benefit of the holders of the Notes (including, without limitation, the
Initial Purchasers), the Exchange Notes (as defined below) and the Private Exchange Notes (as defined below) (collectively, the “Holders”), as follows: 
 1. Registered Exchange Offer. The Company shall, at its own cost, prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement (the
“Exchange Offer Registration Statement”) on an appropriate form under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), with respect to a proposed offer (the “Registered Exchange
Offer”) to the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities (as defined in Section 6(d) hereof), who are not prohibited by any law or policy of the Commission from participating in the Registered Exchange Offer, to issue and
deliver to such Holders, in exchange for the Notes, a like aggregate principal amount of debt securities (the “Exchange Notes”) of the Company issued under the Indenture and identical in all material respects to the Notes (except
for the transfer restrictions relating to the Notes and the provisions relating to the matters described in Section 6(d) hereof) that would be registered under the Securities Act. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to
cause such Exchange Offer Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act and shall keep the Registered Exchange Offer open for not less than 20 business days (or longer, if required by applicable law) after the date notice
of the Registered Exchange Offer is mailed to the Holders. 
 If the Company commences the Registered Exchange Offer, the
Company will be entitled to close the Registered Exchange Offer 20 business days after the commencement thereof provided that the Company has accepted all the Notes theretofore validly tendered, and not withdrawn, in accordance with the terms
of the Registered Exchange Offer. 
 Following the declaration of the effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration
Statement, the Company shall promptly commence the Registered Exchange Offer, it being the objective of such Registered Exchange Offer to enable each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities electing to exchange the Notes for Exchange Notes
(assuming that such Holder is not an affiliate of the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, acquires the Exchange Notes in the ordinary course of such Holder’s business and has no arrangements or understanding with any person to
participate in the distribution of the Exchange Notes and is not prohibited by any law or policy of the Commission from participating in the Registered Exchange Offer) to trade such Exchange Notes from and after their receipt without any limitations
or restrictions under the Securities Act and without material restrictions under the securities laws of the several states of the United States; provided, however, that the Exchanging Dealers (as defined below) will be required to
deliver a prospectus in connection with resales of Exchange Notes. 
 The Company acknowledges that, pursuant to current
interpretations by the Commission’s staff of Section 5 of the Securities Act, in the absence of an applicable exemption therefrom, (i) each Holder which is a broker-dealer electing to exchange Notes, acquired for its own account as a
result of market making activities or other trading activities, for Exchange Notes (an “Exchanging Dealer”), is required to deliver a prospectus containing the information 

  
 2 

 
set forth in (a) Annex A hereto on the cover, (b) Annex B hereto in the “Exchange Offer Procedures” section and the “Purpose of the Exchange
Offer” section, and (c) Annex C hereto in the “Plan of Distribution” section of such prospectus in connection with a sale of any such Exchange Notes received by such Exchanging Dealer pursuant to the Registered
Exchange Offer and (ii) an Initial Purchaser that elects to sell Exchange Notes acquired in exchange for Notes constituting any portion of an unsold allotment is required to deliver a prospectus containing the information required by Items 507
or 508 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, as applicable, in connection with such sale. 
 The Company shall use its
reasonable best efforts to keep the Exchange Offer Registration Statement effective and to amend and supplement the prospectus contained therein, in order to permit such prospectus to be lawfully delivered by all persons subject to the prospectus
delivery requirements of the Securities Act for such period of time as such persons must comply with such requirements in order to resell the Exchange Notes; provided, however, that (i) in the case where such prospectus and any
amendment or supplement thereto must be delivered by an Exchanging Dealer or an Initial Purchaser, such period shall be the lesser of 180 days and the date on which all Exchanging Dealers and the Initial Purchasers have sold all Exchange Notes held
by them (unless such period is extended pursuant to Section 3(j) below) and (ii) the Company shall make such prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any resale of
any Exchange Notes for a period of not less than 180 days after the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer. 
 If, upon
consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer, any Initial Purchaser holds Notes acquired by it as part of its initial distribution, the Company, simultaneously with the delivery of the Exchange Notes pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer, shall
issue and deliver to such Initial Purchaser upon the written request of such Initial Purchaser, in exchange (the “Private Exchange”) for the Notes held by such Initial Purchaser, a like principal amount of debt securities of the
Company issued under the Indenture and identical in all material respects (including the existence of restrictions on transfer under the Securities Act and the securities laws of the several states of the United States, but excluding provisions
relating to the matters described in Section 6 hereof) to the Notes (the “Private Exchange Notes”). The Notes, the Exchange Notes and the Private Exchange Notes are herein collectively called the
“Securities.” 
 In connection with the Registered Exchange Offer, the Company shall: 

(a) deliver to each Holder a copy of the prospectus forming part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, together
with an appropriate Letter of Transmittal and related documents; 
 (b) keep the Registered Exchange Offer open
for not less than 20 business days (or longer, if required by applicable law) after the date notice thereof is mailed to the Holders; 
 (c) utilize the services of a depositary for the Registered Exchange Offer, which may be the Trustee or an affiliate of the Trustee; 

  
 3 

 (d) permit Holders to withdraw tendered Securities at any time prior to the
close of business, New York time, on the last business day on which the Registered Exchange Offer shall remain open; and 
 (e) otherwise comply with all applicable laws. 
 As soon as practicable after the
close of the Registered Exchange Offer or the Private Exchange, as the case may be, the Company shall: 
 (x)
accept for exchange all the Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer and the Private Exchange; and 
 (y) cause the Trustee to deliver promptly to each Holder of the Notes, Exchange Notes or Private Exchange Notes, as the case may be, equal in principal amount to the Notes of such Holder so accepted for
exchange. 
 The Indenture will provide that the Exchange Notes will not be subject to the transfer restrictions set forth in
the Indenture and that all the Securities will vote and consent together on all matters as one class and that none of the Securities will have the right to vote or consent as a class separate from one another on any matter. 

Interest on each Exchange Security and Private Exchange Security issued pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer and in the Private
Exchange will accrue from the last interest payment date on which interest was paid on the Notes surrendered in exchange therefor or, if no interest has been paid on the Notes, from the date of original issue of the Notes. 

Each Holder participating in the Registered Exchange Offer shall be required to represent to the Company that at the time of the
consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer (i) any Exchange Notes received by such Holder will be acquired in the ordinary course of its business, (ii) such Holder has no arrangements or understanding with any person to participate in
the distribution of the Securities or the Exchange Notes within the meaning of the Securities Act, (iii) such Holder is not an “affiliate,” as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act, of the Company or if it is an affiliate, such
Holder will comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act to the extent applicable, (iv) if such Holder is not a broker-dealer, that it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, the
distribution of the Exchange Notes and (v) if such Holder is a broker-dealer, that it will receive Exchange Notes for its own account in exchange for Notes that were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities
and that it will be required to acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Notes. 
 Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, the Company will ensure that (i) any Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any amendment thereto and any prospectus forming part thereof and any
supplement thereto comply in all material respects with the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, (ii) any Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any amendment thereto do not, when they become effective, contain an untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and (iii) any prospectus forming part of any Exchange Offer Registration Statement, and any
supplement to such prospectus, do not include an untrue 

  
 4 

 
statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which
they were made, not misleading. 
 2. Shelf Registration. If, (i) because of any change in law or in applicable
interpretations thereof by the staff of the Commission, the Company is not permitted to effect a Registered Exchange Offer, as contemplated by Section 1 hereof, (ii) the Registered Exchange Offer is not consummated on or prior to
November 6, 2013, (iii) any Initial Purchaser so requests with respect to the Notes (or the Private Exchange Notes) not eligible to be exchanged for Exchange Notes in the Registered Exchange Offer and held by it following consummation of
the Registered Exchange Offer or (iv) any Holder (other than an Exchanging Dealer) is not eligible to participate in the Registered Exchange Offer or, in the case of any Holder (other than an Exchanging Dealer) that participates in the
Registered Exchange Offer, such Holder does not receive freely tradeable Exchange Notes on the date of the exchange, the Company shall take the following actions: 

(a) The Company shall, at its cost, as promptly as practicable (but in no event more than 30 days after so required or
requested pursuant to this Section 2) file with the Commission and thereafter shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause to be declared effective (unless it becomes effective automatically upon filing) a registration statement (the
“Shelf Registration Statement” and, together with the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, a “Registration Statement”) on an appropriate form under the Securities Act relating to the offer and sale of the Transfer
Restricted Securities by the Holders thereof from time to time in accordance with the methods of distribution set forth in the Shelf Registration Statement and Rule 415 under the Securities Act (hereinafter, the “Shelf
Registration”) on or prior to the November 6, 2013 in the case of clauses (i) or (ii) above and on or prior to the 180th day after the date on which the Shelf Registration Statement is required to be filed in the case of
clauses (iii) and (iv) above; provided, however, that no Holder (other than an Initial Purchaser) shall be entitled to have the Securities held by it covered by such Shelf Registration Statement unless such Holder agrees in
writing to be bound by all the provisions of this Registration Rights Agreement (this “Agreement”) applicable to such Holder. 
 (b) The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective, in order to permit the prospectus included therein to be lawfully delivered by the
Holders of the relevant Securities, for a period of two years (or for such longer period if extended pursuant to Section 3(j) below) from the date of its effectiveness or such shorter period that will terminate when all the Securities
covered by the Shelf Registration Statement (i) have been sold pursuant thereto or (ii) may be sold without any limitations by non-affiliates of the Company under clause (d)(1)(i) of Rule 144 under the Securities Act, or any successor
rule thereof, provided, however, that the six month period shall be replaced with one year) (the “Shelf Registration Period”). The Company shall be deemed not to have used its reasonable best efforts to keep the Shelf Registration
Statement effective during the Shelf Registration Period if it voluntarily takes any action that would result in Holders of Securities covered thereby not being able to offer and sell such Securities during that period, unless such action is
required by applicable law. 

  
 5 

 (c) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary,
the Company shall cause (i) the Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment thereto and any related prospectus and any supplement thereto, as of the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement, amendment or supplement, to comply in
all material respects with the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, (ii) the Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment thereto not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading and (iii) the prospectus related to the Shelf Registration Statement, and any supplement to such prospectus, not to include an untrue statement of
a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. 

3. Registration Procedures. In connection with any Shelf Registration contemplated by Section 2 hereof and, to the
extent applicable, any Registered Exchange Offer contemplated by Section 1 hereof, the following provisions shall apply: 
 (a) The Company shall (i) furnish to each Initial Purchaser, prior to the filing thereof with the Commission, a copy of the Registration Statement and each amendment thereof and each supplement, if
any, to the prospectus included therein and, in the event that an Initial Purchaser (with respect to any portion of an unsold allotment from the original offering) is participating in the Registered Exchange Offer or the Shelf Registration
Statement, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to reflect in each such document, when so filed with the Commission, such comments as such Initial Purchaser reasonably may propose; (ii) include the information set forth in
Annex A hereto on the cover, in Annex B hereto in the “Exchange Offer Procedures” section and the “Purpose of the Exchange Offer” section and in Annex C hereto in the “Plan of
Distribution” section of the prospectus forming a part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and include the information set forth in Annex D hereto in the Letter of Transmittal delivered pursuant to the Registered Exchange
Offer; (iii) if requested by an Initial Purchaser, include the information required by Items 507 or 508 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, as applicable, in the prospectus forming a part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement;
(iv) include within the prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement a section entitled “Plan of Distribution,” reasonably acceptable to the Initial Purchasers, which shall contain a summary statement of the
positions taken or policies made by the staff of the Commission with respect to the potential “underwriter” status of any broker-dealer that is the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the “Exchange Act”) of Exchange Notes received by such broker-dealer in the Registered Exchange Offer (a “Participating Broker-Dealer”), whether such positions or policies have been publicly disseminated by
the staff of the Commission or such positions or policies, in the reasonable judgment of the Initial Purchasers based upon advice of counsel (which may be in-house counsel), represent the prevailing views of the staff of the Commission; and
(v) in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, include in the prospectus included in the Shelf Registration Statement (or, if permitted by Commission Rule 430B(b), in a prospectus supplement that becomes a part thereof pursuant to
Commission Rule 430B(f)) that is delivered to any Holder pursuant to Section 3(d) and (f), the names of the Holders, who propose to sell Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, as selling securityholders. 

  
 6 

 (b) The Company shall give written notice to the Initial Purchasers, the
Holders of the Securities proposed to be sold under the Shelf Registration Statement and any Participating Broker-Dealer from whom the Company has received prior written notice that it will be a Participating Broker-Dealer in the Registered Exchange
Offer (which notice pursuant to clauses (ii)-(v) hereof shall be accompanied by an instruction to suspend the use of the prospectus until the requisite changes have been made): 

(i) when the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto has been filed with the Commission and when the Registration
Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective; 
 (ii) of any request by the Commission
for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the prospectus included therein or for additional information; 
 (iii) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose, of the issuance by the
Commission of a notification of objection to the use of the form on which the Registration Statement has been filed, and of the happening of any event that causes the Company to become an “ineligible issuer,” as defined in Commission Rule
405; 
 (iv) of the receipt by the Company or its legal counsel of any notification with respect to the
suspension of the qualification of the Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and 
 (v) of the happening of any event that requires the Company to make changes in the Registration Statement or the prospectus in order that the Registration Statement or the prospectus do not contain an
untrue statement of a material fact nor omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of the prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading.

 (c) The Company shall make every reasonable effort to obtain the withdrawal at the earliest possible time, of
any order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement. 
 (d) The Company shall furnish to each
Holder of Securities included within the coverage of the Shelf Registration, without charge, at least one copy of the Shelf Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment or supplement thereto, including financial statements and schedules,
and, if the Holder so requests in writing, all exhibits thereto (including those, if any, incorporated by reference). The Company shall not, without the prior consent of the Initial Purchasers, make any offer relating to the Securities that would
constitute a “free writing prospectus,” as defined in Commission Rule 405. 

  
 7 

 (e) The Company shall deliver to each Initial Purchaser, and to any other
Holder who so requests, without charge, at least one copy of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, including financial statements and schedules, and, if any Initial Purchaser or any such Holder requests,
all exhibits thereto (including those incorporated by reference). 
 (f) The Company shall, during the Shelf
Registration Period, deliver to each Holder of Securities included within the coverage of the Shelf Registration, without charge, as many copies of the prospectus (including each preliminary prospectus) included in the Shelf Registration Statement
and any amendment or supplement thereto as such person may reasonably request. The Company consents, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, to the use of the prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling Holders of
the Securities in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities covered by the prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, included in the Shelf Registration Statement. 

(g) The Company shall deliver to each Initial Purchaser, any Exchanging Dealer, any Participating Broker-Dealer and such
other persons required to deliver a prospectus following the Registered Exchange Offer, without charge, as many copies of the final prospectus included in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto as such
persons may reasonably request. The Company consents, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, to the use of the prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by any Initial Purchaser, if necessary, any Participating Broker-Dealer and such
other persons required to deliver a prospectus following the Registered Exchange Offer in connection with the offering and sale of the Exchange Notes covered by the prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, included in such Exchange Offer
Registration Statement. 
 (h) Prior to any public offering of the Securities, pursuant to any Registration
Statement, the Company shall register or qualify or cooperate with the Holders of the Securities included therein and their respective counsel in connection with the registration or qualification of the Securities for offer and sale under the
securities or “blue sky” laws of such states of the United States as any Holder of the Securities reasonably requests in writing and do any and all other acts or things reasonably necessary or advisable to enable the offer and sale in such
jurisdictions of the Securities covered by such Registration Statement; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to (i) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or
(ii) take any action which would subject it to general service of process or to taxation in any jurisdiction where it is not then so subject. 
 (i) To the extent the Securities are not in book-entry form, the Company shall cooperate with the Holders of the Securities to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing
the Securities to be sold pursuant to any Registration Statement free of any restrictive legends and in such denominations and registered in such names as the Holders may request a reasonable period of time prior to sales of the Securities pursuant
to such Registration Statement. 

  
 8 

 (j) Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by clauses (ii)
through (v) of Section 3(b) above during the period for which the Company is required to maintain an effective Registration Statement, the Company shall promptly prepare and file a post-effective amendment to the Registration
Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus and any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to Holders of the Securities or purchasers of Securities, the prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or
omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. If the Company notifies the Initial Purchasers, the Holders of the
Securities and any known Participating Broker-Dealer in accordance with clauses (ii) through (v) of Section 3(b) above to suspend the use of the prospectus until the requisite changes to the prospectus have been made, then the
Initial Purchasers, the Holders of the Securities and any such Participating Broker-Dealers shall suspend use of such prospectus, and the period of effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement provided for in Section 2(b) above and
the Exchange Offer Registration Statement provided for in Section 1 above shall each be extended by the number of days from and including the date of the giving of such notice to and including the date when the Initial Purchasers, the
Holders of the Securities and any known Participating Broker-Dealer shall have received such amended or supplemented prospectus pursuant to this Section 3(j). During the period during which the Company is required to maintain an
effective Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to this Agreement, the Company will prior to the three-year expiration of that Shelf Registration Statement file, and use its reasonable best efforts to cause to be declared effective (unless it
becomes effective automatically upon filing) within a period that avoids any interruption in the ability of Holders of Securities covered by the expiring Shelf Registration Statement to make registered dispositions, a new registration statement
relating to the Securities, which shall be deemed the “Shelf Registration Statement” for purposes of this Agreement. 
 (k) Not later than the effective date of the applicable Registration Statement, the Company will provide a CUSIP number for the Notes, the Exchange Notes or the Private Exchange Notes, as the case may be,
and provide the Trustee with certificates for the Notes, the Exchange Notes or the Private Exchange Notes, as the case may be, in a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company. 

(l) The Company will comply with all rules and regulations of the Commission to the extent and so long as they are
applicable to the Registered Exchange Offer or the Shelf Registration and will make generally available to its security holders (or otherwise provide in accordance with Section 11(a) of the Securities Act) an earnings statement satisfying the
provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act, no later than 45 days after the end of a 12-month period (or 90 days, if such period is a fiscal year) beginning with the first month of the Company’s first fiscal quarter commencing after
the effective date of the Registration Statement, which statement shall cover such 12-month period. 

  
 9 

 (m) The Company shall cause the Indenture to be qualified under the Trust
Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, in a timely manner and containing such changes, if any, as shall be necessary for such qualification. In the event that such qualification would require the appointment of a new trustee under the Indenture, the
Company shall appoint a new trustee thereunder pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Indenture. 
 (n) The
Company may require each Holder of Securities to be sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement to furnish to the Company such information regarding the Holder and the distribution of the Securities as the Company may from time to time
reasonably require for inclusion in the Shelf Registration Statement, and the Company may exclude from such registration the Securities of any Holder that unreasonably fails to furnish such information within a reasonable time after receiving such
request. 
 (o) The Company shall enter into such customary agreements (including, if requested, an underwriting
agreement in customary form) and take all such other action, if any, as any Holder of the Securities shall reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Securities pursuant to any Shelf Registration. 

(p) In the case of any Shelf Registration, the Company shall (i) make reasonably available for inspection by the
Holders of the Securities, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by the Holders of the Securities or any such underwriter all relevant
financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company and (ii) cause the Company’s officers, directors, employees, accountants and auditors to supply all relevant information reasonably requested by the
Holders of the Securities or any such underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with the Shelf Registration Statement, in each case, as shall be reasonably necessary to enable such persons, to conduct a reasonable investigation within
the meaning of Section 11 of the Securities Act; provided, however, that the foregoing inspection and information gathering shall be coordinated on behalf of the Initial Purchasers by you and on behalf of the other parties, by one
counsel designated by and on behalf of such other parties as described in Section 4 hereof; provided further, however, that any information that is designated in writing by the Company, in good faith, as confidential at the
time of delivery of such information shall be kept confidential by the Holders or any such underwriter, attorney, accountant or other agent, unless such disclosure is made in connection with a court proceeding or required by law, or such information
is or becomes available to the public generally or through a third party without, to the knowledge of any recipient of confidential information, an accompanying obligation of confidentiality or is independently developed. 

(q) In the case of any Shelf Registration, the Company, if requested by any Holder of the Securities covered thereby,
shall cause (i) its counsel to deliver an opinion and updates thereof relating to the Securities in customary form addressed to such Holders and the managing underwriters, if any, thereof and dated, in the case of the initial opinion, the
effective date of such Shelf Registration Statement (it being agreed that the matters to be covered by such opinion shall include, without limitation, the due incorporation or organization and good standing of the Company and its subsidiaries; the

  
 10 

 
qualification of the Company and its subsidiaries to transact business as foreign corporations or other business entities; the due authorization, execution and delivery of the relevant agreement
of the type referred to in Section 3(o) hereof; the due authorization, execution, authentication and issuance, and the validity and enforceability, of the applicable Securities; the absence of material legal or governmental proceedings
involving the Company and its subsidiaries; the absence of governmental approvals required to be obtained in connection with the Shelf Registration Statement, the offering and sale of the applicable Securities, or any agreement of the type referred
to in Section 3(o) hereof; the compliance as to form of such Shelf Registration Statement and any documents incorporated by reference therein and of the Indenture with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Trust Indenture Act,
respectively; and (A) as of the date of the opinion and as of the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement or most recent post-effective amendment thereto, as the case may be, the absence from such Shelf Registration Statement and the
prospectus included therein, as then amended or supplemented, and from any documents incorporated by reference therein and (B) as of an applicable time identified by such Holders or managing underwriters, the absence from such prospectus taken
together with any other documents identified by such Holders or managing underwriters, in the case of (A) and (B), of an untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (in the case of any such incorporated documents, in the light of the circumstances existing at the time that such documents were filed with the Commission under the Exchange Act));
(ii) its officers to execute and deliver all customary documents and certificates and updates thereof requested by any underwriters of the applicable Securities and (iii) its independent public accountants and the independent public
accountants with respect to any other entity for which financial information is provided in the Shelf Registration Statement to provide to the selling Holders of the applicable Securities and any underwriter therefor a comfort letter in customary
form and covering matters of the type customarily covered in comfort letters in connection with primary underwritten offerings, subject to receipt of appropriate documentation as contemplated, and only if permitted, by Statement of Auditing
Standards No. 72. 
 (r) In the case of the Registered Exchange Offer, if requested by any Initial Purchaser
or any known Participating Broker-Dealer, the Company shall cause (i) its counsel to deliver to such Initial Purchaser or such Participating Broker-Dealer signed opinions in the form set forth in Sections 7(c) and 7(d) of the Purchase Agreement
with such changes as are customary in connection with the preparation of a Registration Statement and (ii) its independent public accountants and the independent public accountants with respect to any other entity for which financial
information is provided in the Registration Statement to deliver to such Initial Purchaser or such Participating Broker-Dealer a comfort letter, in customary form, meeting the requirements as to the substance thereof as set forth in Sections 7(f),
7(g) and 7(i) of the Purchase Agreement, with appropriate date changes. 
 (s) If a Registered Exchange Offer or
a Private Exchange is to be consummated, upon delivery of the Notes by Holders to the Company (or to such other person as directed by the Company) in exchange for the Exchange Notes or the Private

  
 11 

 
Exchange Notes, as the case may be, the Company shall mark, or cause to be marked, on the Notes so exchanged that such Notes are being canceled in exchange for the Exchange Notes or the Private
Exchange Notes, as the case may be; in no event shall the Notes be marked as paid or otherwise satisfied. 
 (t)
The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to (a) if the Notes have been rated prior to the initial sale of such Notes, confirm such ratings will apply to the Securities covered by a Shelf Registration Statement, or (b) if the Notes
were not previously rated, cause the Securities covered by a Shelf Registration Statement to be rated with the appropriate rating agencies, but in each case only if so requested by Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of Securities
covered by such Registration Statement, or by the managing underwriters, if any. 
 (u) In the event that any
broker-dealer registered under the Exchange Act shall underwrite any Securities or participate as a member of an underwriting syndicate or selling group or “assist in the distribution” (within the meaning of the Conduct Rules (the
“Rules”) of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”)) thereof, whether as a Holder of such Securities or as an underwriter, a placement or sales agent or a broker or dealer in respect thereof, or
otherwise, the Company will assist such broker-dealer in complying with the requirements of such Rules, including, without limitation, by (i) if such Rules, including Rule 2720, shall so require, engaging a “qualified independent
underwriter” (as defined in Rule 2720) to participate in the preparation of the Registration Statement relating to such Securities, to exercise usual standards of due diligence in respect thereto and, if any portion of the offering contemplated
by such Registration Statement is an underwritten offering or is made through a placement or sales agent, to recommend the yield of such Securities, (ii) indemnifying any such qualified independent underwriter to the extent of the
indemnification of underwriters provided in Section 5 hereof and (iii) providing such information to such broker-dealer as may be required in order for such broker-dealer to comply with the requirements of the Rules. 

(v) The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to take all other steps necessary to effect the registration of the
Securities covered by a Registration Statement contemplated hereby. 
 4. Registration Expenses. The Company shall bear
all fees and expenses incurred in connection with the performance of its obligations under Sections 1 through 3 hereof (including the reasonable fees and expenses, if any, of counsel for the Initial Purchasers incurred in connection
with the Registered Exchange Offer), whether or not the Registered Exchange Offer or a Shelf Registration is filed or becomes effective, and, in the event of a Shelf Registration, shall bear or reimburse the Holders of the Securities covered thereby
for the reasonable fees and disbursements of one firm of counsel designated by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes covered thereby to act as counsel for the Holders of the Notes in connection therewith. Each Holder shall be
responsible for paying all underwriting discounts and commissions, if any, relating to the sale or disposition of such Holder’s Securities pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement. 

  
 12 

 5. Indemnification. 

(a) The Company and each of the Guarantors, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder of the
Securities, any Participating Broker-Dealer and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or such Participating Broker-Dealer within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each Holder, any Participating Broker-Dealer and such
controlling persons are referred to collectively as the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, or any actions in respect thereof (including, but not limited to, any
losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions relating to purchases and sales of the Securities) to which each Indemnified Party may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement or prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus
or “issuer free writing prospectus,” as defined in Commission Rule 433 (“Issuer FWP”), relating to a Shelf Registration, or arise out of, or are based upon, the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and shall reimburse, as incurred, the Indemnified Parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or
defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect thereof; provided, however, that the Company and each Guarantor will not be liable in any such case to the extent that such loss, claim, damage or liability arises
out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in a Registration Statement or prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus or Issuer FWP relating
to a Shelf Registration in reliance upon and in conformity with written information pertaining to such Holder and furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for inclusion therein. 

(b) Each Holder of the Securities, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each
Guarantor, their directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company or such Guarantor within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities or any actions in
respect thereof, to which the Company or any such Guarantor, their directors and officers or any such controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities
or actions arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement or prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus or Issuer
FWP relating to a Shelf Registration, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but in each case
only to the extent that the untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information pertaining to such Holder and furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such
Holder specifically for inclusion therein; and, subject to the limitation set forth immediately preceding this clause, shall reimburse, as incurred, the Company or any such Guarantor, their directors and officers

  
 13 

 
or any such controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or any such Guarantor, their directors and officers or any such controlling person in connection
with investigating or defending any loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect thereof. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that such Holder may otherwise have to the Company, any Guarantor, their directors and
officers or any such controlling person. 
 (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this
Section 5 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including a governmental investigation), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this
Section 5, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; but the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that it may have under subsection (a) or
(b) above except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided further that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from
any liability that it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under subsection (a) or (b) above. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof,
the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified
party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof the indemnifying
party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 5 for any legal or other expenses, other than reasonable costs of investigation, subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense
thereof. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could
have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such action, and (ii) does not
include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party. 
 (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsections (a) or (b) above, then each
indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above (i) in
such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other from the exchange of the Securities, pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer,
or (ii) if the allocation provided by the foregoing clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative
fault of the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such 

  
 14 

 
losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the parties shall be determined by reference
to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand or such Holder
or such other indemnified party, as the case may be, on the other, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a
result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating
or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5(d), the Holders of the Securities shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the
amount by which the net proceeds received by such Holders from the sale of the Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement exceeds the amount of damages which such Holders have otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged
untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this subsection (d), each person, if any, who controls such indemnified party within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such
indemnified party and each person, if any, who controls the Company or any Guarantor within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company and the Guarantors. 

(e) The agreements contained in this Section 5 shall survive the sale of the Securities pursuant to a
Registration Statement and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination or cancellation of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of any indemnified party. 

6. Additional Interest Under Certain Circumstances. 

(a) Additional interest (the “Additional Interest”) with respect to the Notes shall be assessed as
follows if any of the following events occur (each such event in clauses (i) through (iii) below a “Registration Default”): 

(i) If obligated to file a Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to (A) Sections
2(i)-(ii) above, the Shelf Registration Statement has not been declared effective by the Commission (or become effective automatically) on or prior to November 6, 2013, or (B) Sections 2(iii-iv) above, the Shelf
Registration Statement has not been declared effective by the Commission (or become effective automatically) on or prior to the 180th day after the date on which the Shelf Registration Statement is required to be filed; 

(ii) If the Registered Exchange Offer has not been consummated on or prior to November 6, 2013; or 

  
 15 

 (iii) If after either the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or the Shelf
Registration Statement is declared (or becomes automatically) effective (A) such Registration Statement thereafter ceases to be effective during the periods specified in Sections 1 and 2, as applicable; or (B) such
Registration Statement or the related prospectus ceases to be usable (except as permitted in subsection (b)) in connection with resales of Transfer Restricted Securities during the periods specified herein because either (1) any event
occurs as a result of which the related prospectus forming part of such Registration Statement would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made not misleading, (2) it shall be necessary to amend such Registration Statement or supplement the related prospectus, to comply with the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or the respective rules
thereunder, or (3) such Registration Statement is a Shelf Registration Statement that has expired before a replacement Shelf Registration Statement has become effective. 

Additional Interest shall accrue on the Notes over and above the interest set forth in the title of the Securities from
and including the date on which any such Registration Default shall occur to but excluding the date on which all such Registration Defaults have been cured. In the event such Registration Defaults are not previously cured, all Registration Defaults
shall be cured on the date that each Security is no longer a Transfer Restricted Security. The rate of the Additional Interest will be 0.50% per year for the first 90-day period immediately following the occurrence of a Registration Default,
and such rate will increase by an additional 0.50% per year with respect to each subsequent 90-day period until all Registration Defaults have been cured, up to a maximum Additional Interest rate of 1.50% per year. The Issuer will pay such
Additional Interest on regular interest payment dates. Such Additional Interest will be in addition to any other interest payable from time to time with respect to the Notes and the Exchange Notes. The Company will not be required to pay Additional
Interest for more than one Registration Default at any given time. Following the cure of all Registration Defaults, the accrual of Additional Interest will cease and the interest rate will revert to the original rate, 8.875%. 

(b) A Registration Default referred to in Section 6(a)(iii)(B) hereof shall be deemed not to have occurred and
be continuing in relation to a Shelf Registration Statement or the related prospectus if (i) such Registration Default has occurred solely as a result of (x) the filing of a post-effective amendment to such Shelf Registration Statement to
incorporate annual audited financial information with respect to the Company where such post-effective amendment is not yet effective and needs to be declared effective to permit Holders to use the related prospectus or (y) other material
events, with respect to the Company that would need to be described in such Shelf Registration Statement or the related prospectus and (ii) in the case of clause (y), the Company is proceeding promptly and in good faith to amend or
supplement such Shelf Registration Statement and related prospectus to describe such events; provided, however, that in any case if such Registration Default occurs for a continuous period in excess of 60 days, Additional Interest
shall be payable in accordance with the above paragraph from the day such Registration Default would have been deemed to occur but for this Section 6(b) until such Registration Default is cured. 

  
 16 

 (c) Any amounts of Additional Interest due pursuant to
Section 6(a) above will be payable in cash on the regular interest payment dates with respect to the Notes. The amount of Additional Interest will be determined by multiplying the applicable Additional Interest rate by the principal
amount of the Notes, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days such Additional Interest rate was applicable during such period (determined on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months), and the
denominator of which is 360. 
 (d) “Transfer Restricted Securities” means each Security until
(i) the date on which such Transfer Restricted Security has been exchanged by a person other than a broker-dealer for a freely transferable Exchange Security in the Registered Exchange Offer, (ii) following the exchange by a broker-dealer
in the Registered Exchange Offer of an Initial Security for an Exchange Security, the date on which such Exchange Security is sold to a purchaser who receives from such broker-dealer on or prior to the date of such sale a copy of the prospectus
contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, (iii) the date on which such Initial Security has been effectively registered under the Securities Act and disposed of in accordance with the Shelf Registration Statement or (iv) the
date on which such Notes are distributed to the public pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or are saleable by non-affiliates of the Company pursuant to Rule 144(d)(l)(i) under the Securities Act; provided, however, that the six month
period shall be replaced with one year. 
 7. Rules 144 and 144A. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to
file the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act in a timely manner and, if at any time the Company is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the request of any Holder of Notes, make publicly
available other information so long as necessary to permit sales of their securities pursuant to Rules 144 and 144A. The Company covenants that it will take such further action as any Holder of Notes may reasonably request, all to the extent
required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Notes without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rules 144 and 144A (including the requirements of Rule 144A(d)(4)). The Company will
provide a copy of this Agreement to prospective purchasers of Notes identified to the Company by the Initial Purchasers upon request. Upon the request of any Holder of Notes, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether
it has complied with such requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 7 shall be deemed to require the Company to register any of its securities pursuant to the Exchange Act. 

8. Underwritten Registrations. If any of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by any Shelf Registration are to be sold in an
underwritten offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers that will administer the offering will be selected by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such Transfer Restricted Securities to be
included in such offering. 

  
 17 

 No person may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder unless such person
(i) agrees to sell such person’s Transfer Restricted Securities on the basis reasonably provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (ii) completes and executes
all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements. 
 9. Miscellaneous. 
 (a) Amendments and Waivers. The
provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, except by the Company and the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal
amount of (or, in the case of any Additional Interest, all) the Securities affected by such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent. 
 (b) Notices. All notices and other communications provided for or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand delivery, first-class mail, facsimile transmission, or air courier that

 ANNEX A 

Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Notes for its own account pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer must acknowledge that it
will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Notes. The Letter of Transmittal states that by so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an
“underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act. This Prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of Exchange Notes received in exchange for Notes
where such Notes were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. The Company has agreed that, for a period of 180 days after the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer, it will make
this Prospectus available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. See “Plan of Distribution.” 

  
 Annex A

 ANNEX B 

Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Notes for its own account in exchange for Securities, where such Notes were acquired by such
broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Notes. See “Plan of Distribution.” 

  
 Annex B

 ANNEX C 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION 
 Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Notes for its own account pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such
Exchange Notes. This Prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of Exchange Notes received in exchange for Notes where such Notes were acquired as a result of
market-making activities or other trading activities. The Company has agreed that, for a period of 180 days after the effective date of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, it will make this prospectus, as amended or supplemented, available to
any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. In addition, until             , 20     (90 days after the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer),
all dealers effecting transactions in the Exchange Notes may be required to deliver a prospectus. 
 The Company will not
receive any proceeds from any sale of Exchange Notes by broker-dealers. Exchange Notes received by broker-dealers for their own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions in the over-the-counter
market, in negotiated transactions, through the writing of options on the Exchange Notes or a combination of such methods of resale, at market prices prevailing at the time of resale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or negotiated
prices. Any such resale may be made directly to purchasers or to or through brokers or dealers who may receive compensation in the form of commissions or concessions from any such broker dealer or the purchasers of any such Exchange Notes. Any
broker-dealer that resells Exchange Notes that were received by it for its own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer and any broker or dealer that participates in a distribution of such Exchange Notes may be deemed to be an “underwriter”
within the meaning of the Securities Act and any profit on any such resale of Exchange Notes and any commission or concessions received by any such persons may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the Securities Act. The Letter of
Transmittal states that, by acknowledging that it will deliver and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act. 

For a period of 180 days after the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer, the Company will promptly send additional copies of
this Prospectus and any amendment or supplement to this Prospectus to any broker-dealer that requests such documents as provided in the Letter of Transmittal. The Company has agreed to pay all expenses incident to the Exchange Offer (including the
expenses of one counsel for the Holders of the Securities) other than commissions or concessions of any brokers or dealers and will indemnify the Holders of the Securities (including any broker-dealers) against certain liabilities, including
liabilities under the Securities Act.

activities, it acknowledges that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Notes; however, by so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, the undersigned will not be deemed to admit that it is an
“underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act.
